>The state is the entity that owns all land

Who owns the state?
Scott Kelly’s medical monitoring has spawned some bad press coverage
Vizzini: ... they block it because they can break it and want all of their adversaries to think it's unbreakable... Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I’m not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.
I'm from a country where that happened, I'm quite aware about this aspect. Even so, fining rich people more just makes sense, to me. Fines are supposed to be a deterrent.

If we're reaching the point where we're discussing about revolutions and civil forfeiture, I think there's a bigger problem here. And it's not proportional fines.
When I visited Egypt a three years ago I was using Vodafone to connect to my mail server. They performed a MITM attack and stripped the STARTTLS from the SMTP dialogue.

I had to switch to the legacy SSL port 465 for SMTP to use encryption.
Exactly! One of my favorite sites. There's also "No Tech Magazine" with a bit different scope (and, sadly, less consisent quality) – http://www.notechmagazine.com/
Hm, that doesn't sound very convincing to me. When I fly over Germany, it appears to me that actually almost every land is owned by people that are affected by the environment a lot: Farmers. Furthermore, air polution is one of the biggest environmental concerns right now, and air does not care about land ownership - city people are affected by bad air, but how would their situtation be better without the modern state and common land?

If i'd own the river flowing by a big plant, would I care more about it's preservation than the polution-fee I could take from the company owner?

One last point: you call public land a legal-fiction - that's interesting, because I would call property rights a legal fiction, and "public ownership" the natural state of stuff (one could argue every legal concept is fiction, I'd tend to agree with that).
The direction of causality presumed in the title is mixed up. The EPA did not materialize in a vacuum. It came about in a context of increased concern about pollution which had exceeded tolerable levels AND the U.S. had grown to the point where the country as a whole was wealthy enough to care about such things. Because enough people wanted less pollution, the politicians did something.

What they did was not necessarily the "best" thing. The title of the post should have been "What America looked like before the enough Americans began caring for the environment, in photos".

PS: I grew up in a really polluted city.
Do you think the limited sanctions will be effective? If I were China I don't think this is significant enough for me to stop my plan. Maybe it's intended as a warning.

I don't like trump at all. But I agree with defending our country. And overall, the less we can rely on China the better.
1. deterministic resource management (locks, files, …)

2. affine & linear types are actually useful modelling tools e.g. to make state machines statically non-rollbackable/duplicable (this is related to resource management as those are generally the STMs you want to lock down)
Call me a Luddite but I still don't see it. It's still effectively a good old database rebranded as "blockchain" to sound cool and innovative. The tools to do something like that have existed for a long time.

The big issue these days is that the word "blockchain" is so broad that it's almost meaningless. I'm sure cryptocurrency advocates see this election as a win for instance, but in essence what do cryptocurrencies and this voting architecture share besides this rather nebulous concept of "blockchain"? Clearly the election is neither trustless, nor particularly decentralized.

Blockchain is not "tulip bulbs" (cryptocurrencies might be). Blockchain is like "cloud computing", "web 2.0", "web scale" or "full stack". It's a fancy marketing name that doesn't mean much on its own.
The big difference is that Tizen with C/C++/JavaScript and Fitbit with SVG/JavaScript seem to be more user friendly (battery life, performance) than whatever Google is trying to do with fitting Android into a watch.
Well, I drive 2.5 hours three times per week, so 10 minute saving per day translates to 30 extra hours spent with family per year (several workdays!).

Highways are generally super safe compared to anything else and speed alone is almost never a cause for an accident (I'm strict about keeping safe distance etc).
Don't shoot the messenger but take it from a first-generation Russian who has spent time there: peace-loving is a stretch. Ask yourself what it says about a nation that has a leader who is an authoritarian chauvinist, openly espouses pre-liberal values, and embraces force and deception as a legitimate way of achieving his ends, and that leader has a legit 80% approval rating. Nothing good.
80A circuit for 72A continuous load is absolutely in violation of code.
It's probably a git/libgit issue. I reported a similar issue(Cloning/Pulling commits from github took forever, Transfer speeds going as low as 1 kbps when my connection was 50mbps).

They asked me to run some commands and log output to measure packet loss/speed etc. and then told me that my connection had 2-5% packet loss which was causing all the problem and I need to talk to my ISP or get a better connection.

I switched my ISP after that and its not a problem anymore.
1. Conservatives believe in trade offs. There's a cost to protecting the environment and at some point spending more money isn't worth it. Often there aren't good solutions to problems just less bad ones.

2. Conservatives care about waste, fraud and abuse, and there have been many examples of abuse in programs to protect the environment

3. Steps taken in the name of protecting the environment often end up doing more harm than good. Conservatives are inherently skeptical of any large organizations ability to do what they say they will.

4. Environmentalism often has an unrealistic view of nature. It's dynamic, constantly evolving, and "preserving" it is a hopeless undertaking. I would recommend the books of Daniel Botkin on this issue: https://www.danielbbotkin.com/books/the-moon-in-the-nautilus...

5. We have a limited budget and fiscal responsibility requires not spending what you don't have. (This is an element of conservative ideology not represented in either of today's political parties)

The peak power comes from the inertia of the club, not the player. The player puts out a much lower power over a longer period of time. 140j over the windup + swing is probably similar to what someone like a boxer needs to put out during a single punch.
But what affects just one's own property vs affecting others? Can I dump toxic waste on my own land? What happens when 10 years later it starts leaching into the soil and poisoning nearby streams and farms? What about the animals who eat on my land and then run back into the forest where they get shot for someone else's dinner, and that someone else ends up consuming elevated levels of heavy metals? What about the person who buys the land from me? Do I have to disclose the presence of the waste to them?
Docker Image Size – Does It Matter?
Fantastic work, I hope this is just the beginning.
It still feels years behind any dedicated maps though(like TomTom), at least in those countries that I've tried it(UK, Spain, Poland, Germany). It's just consistently wrong about which roads are connected with each other, it doesn't know that certain roads are one-way or that you can't make a left/right turn out of a certain street. I've reported dozens of mistakes and they just don't get fixed. Every single morning on my way to work it tries to route me left on a no-left-turn intersection - I've literally filed a map correction report for this 3 or 4 times, still nothing.

TomTom just don't have this issue, I've been using it for 5 years now and it's never done anything like that. Also TomTom Traffic is vastly better than Google Traffic, consistently beating it for time and route prediction(I've been driving with Android Auto and TomTom 5000 set up side by side for a while, and if TomTom suggests a detour it's usually a good one - take the one google suggests and you're getting stuck on some small street that google thinks you can drive through but you actually can't).

That's a compliment. IBM is by far more dysfunctional.

Thank you for the advice.

May I ask how you made the shift? Did you do it in the same company? Same industry?

Did you need to do something else aside to make your resume more appealing for those roles?
The universe is amoral and mathematics doubly so, but the OP was talking about how the "invented concept" of public land gives rise to this tragedy of the commons. I am directly disagreeing in that A.) public land is the invented concept (it isn't, private land is) B.) public land is where the tragedy of the commons occurs (it isn't always, as tragedy happens on private lands, perhaps moreso).

I can give more examples of B.) where corporations visit environmental destruction on lands they own (e.g. gold mines) and then sell off the leftover, ruined real estate, having still profited handsomely in the end.

In this truly private system, who owns the river that runs through the parcel of land? Who owns the fish that swim upstream from the ocean to spawn every year? Who owns the air? What organisation decides who wins when the factory in one parcel of land upstream pumps poison into the water and the air. Who judges exactly how much monetary damages are due from destroying an ecosystem?

None of this libertarian fantasy is remotely feasible, even after you assume that you can assign property rights to every molecule of the earth and have to sign contracts to take a breath.
Just my opinion but I think trade wars is heading in the wrong direction. We need to open trade more. At first it will cause pain and inefficiency, but specialization and collaboration has a larger net benefit to humans than both countries manufacturing everything themselves. But of course over specialization weakens the whole system when a piece goes missing perhaps.
>The author's whole point in this article seems to be "IBM offshored its work to Bratislava and India and that's bad". I don't know how you can decouple the stereotyping from an article when it's the main line of reasoning of the article.

And - in passing by and without any particular apparent reason - he manages to bad mouth half of the rest of Europe or nearby countries:

"... nothing like Romania, the Ukraine, Albania or even Poland in turning out petty criminals or promiscuous online fraudsters. Not to forget Western Europe, France has a far more unhealthy work culture ..."

If the above is not (additionally gratuitious in the context) stereotyping, I wonder what it is.
>because I would call property rights a legal fiction

Nearly every culture that has ever existed has recognized that someone taking something from you by force is crime. Its a normative expectation for nearly 100% of all humans.

People like yourself, who don't see a value in others property (ie. think you are free to take it), are generally seen as very dangerous and inconsiderate people.
Why should power and freedom be distributed equally rather than proportional to competence and virtue ?
Blind Users Celebrate as Marrakesh Treaty Implementation Bill Drops
Short answer:

The federal government has a short list of "enumerated powers", and it can only do those things. (The list is in Article I, Section 8, and it's quite short. It's things like "establish[ing] Post Offices and Post Roads", or "provid[ing] and maintain[ing] a Navy". Regulating migratory birds isn't one of those things.)

It also has a list of things it can't do (take property without compensation, quarter soldiers in private homes, etc.). You can't violate these rules even in service of an enumerated power. However, regulating migratory birds also isn't one of those things.

So Congress can't regulate migratory birds, unless it finds some other clause that can be interpreted it allow it, but if it can, then it's fine. A the treaty power is another clause, so sure, you can do a lot of things that aren't enumerated powers (but that aren't prohibited!) by signings treaties. You could sign an arms control treaty that violates the second amendment, but any law implementing it would be unconstitutional and struck down out of hand. Similarly, any law implementing an "international libel treaty" would be nixed out of hand. But a Migratory Bird Treaty Act? Sure, why not?

The treaty power isn't limitless, and I think think modern courts are a bit more sceptical of it; I'm not sure Missouri v. Holland would be decided the same way today. On the other hand, the commerce clause and the "necessary and proper" clauses have been interpreted very loosely by modern courts, so I don't think anything would really change; Congress would just pass a law claiming to be regulating commerce due to the impact of migratory birds on interstate birdwatching tourism. :) (No sillier than the winning argument in Gonzales v. Raich!)

The quest for a universal translator
As I understand it, the conservative attitude is that environmental concerns are either overplayed, or simply a Trojan horse invented to push anti-business/anti-capitalist policies, and a leftist agenda in general. They believe that many of the most fervent environmental campaigners are not really interested in evolutionary improvements to the current system, but instead want revolutionary change, including the complete replacement of the existing system with something more akin to communism.

As someone who is broadly centre left in outlook, I do actually agree that there is some truth to this. From what I've seen, many environmental campaigners do talk in terms of complete economic and political transformation. And they are often conflate environmental issues with other issues of social and economic justice, even when the actual links between them is questionable. For example, do we have to solve issues of gender, racial, and income inequality in order to stop climate change?

Personally, I think that these issues are not inextricably linked. I'd like to see improvements in all of them. But I also think that climate change is a more pressing issue, because while human-scale problems can always be fixed with more time, runaway climate change is likely a one way process, and one with a very narrow window of opportunity to address. I think many environmental campaigns would find a more receptive audience amongst conservatives if they focused more narrowly on the specific issues of pollution and climate change.

Of course, campaigners do have a answer for this. They argue that these issues are inextricably linked. That the capitalist system is incorrigibly rapacious, and all these different problems are really just products of the underlying dysfunction, and cannot be tackled in isolation. That "evolutionary" improvement is simply an emollient that cannot address the fundamentally catastrophic impact of the free market and the global supply chain on the biosphere, and as such, revolutionary change, even though very difficult, is the only solution that can work, and therefore the only thing worth campaigning for.

My take is that, while some of the fundamentals of modern capitalism are basically broken, with respect to environmental impact, they are still delivering results, in terms of general reduction of overall poverty and improvements to quality of life for the very poorest, and security for the richest. As such, it's not realistic to expect to achieve major changes through campaigns focused on policy. Instead, campaigns to influence policy should focus on specific issues that mitigate the worst of climate change and pollution. Their purpose should be to buy us enough time as a species to solve the other problems using technology. Technological change can deliver genuinely transformative changes to the economy, as we're seeing with the adoption of renewable energy and electric vehicles, but not always fast enough.
The habit loop: cue (trigger) > routine > reward.

You can't easily change the cue and reward, but you can change the routine.

Cues can be really tricky. Something like pornography is rarely triggered by horniness. It's often things like fatigue, stress, being alone in a room, seeing someone in a certain type of clothing.

Reward can also be very tricky. For pornography, it's often an orgasm. For gambling, it's winning money. It's not easy to replace these rewards with say, a game.

What you can do is change the routine easily. For example, someone triggered to look at porn might instead look for his wife. Someone triggered to gamble could trade stocks or cryptocurrency instead.

There's also always been a "boredom" black hole that has been displaced by newspaper, TV, IRC, Netflix, forums, Facebook, Reddit and so on. These things run on the same cue/routine and are easy to displace.
The UK government is manufacturing its nerve agent case for ‘action’ on Russia
I agree. However, it only works when trade is fair.

Overall, what has happened is that low skill and unskilled jobs have gone to where labour is the cheapest. This has benefitted the poorest of the poor, at the expense of poor people in first world countries. The other consequence is that labour and safety standards are effectively eroded as where these jobs are offshore to are unlikely to enforce these requirements. The result of this has been to reduce global poverty and drive down the prices of goods (i.e. clothing).

However, then you have places like China which then place restrictions on market entrants, enable local companies to steal intellectual property and undercut western companies, without legal recourse. No-one has been willing to call China on these actions for fear of losing out on the entire market.
>The US has a trade deficit towards Chine, so China has more to lose in a trade war than the US.

The US stands to lose all of the manufactured (especially electronics) goods China makes. The supply chains for a lot of its companies (especially tech) will be severed. China stands to lose soybeans, civilian aircraft, corn and... chicken feet, I suppose?

Of those, the only one that isn't easily substitutable with imports from elsewhere is civilian aircraft, and China is already pretty far ahead on making its own.

I think, on balance, given the relative substitutability of US vs Chinese imports, China has the upper hand in a peaceful scenario. The US can't really replace the Chinese industrial ecosystem whereas China can get corn and soybeans from elsewhere - assuming that shipping is not blocked.

...which is why I'm worried that the US might try to escalate a trade war to blockades and from blockades to, well, you know...

That said, if the US continues with a policy of unfettered trade while China continues with managed trade, China's hand grows stronger while the US's gets weaker. The US doesn't actually have a lot of good options now - it's about 15 years too late for it to safely reverse this process.
We're using Kafka as a log delivery platform and are quite happy with it. Kafka by nature is highly available and can be scaled quite trivially with the log load by adding new cluster nodes.

We've decided to use journald for storing all of our application data. We pump the entries from journald to Kafka by using a tool that we open sourced: https://github.com/aiven/journalpump.

From Kafka, we export the logs to Elasticsearch for viewing and analysis. Some specific logs are also stored in S3 for long term storage for e.g. audit purposes.

Ask HN: Fear of getting on planes obstructing career
Hi HN,
I'm looking for some advice.

I got a new job. It is my dream job at a company I've wanted to work at for a long time now. It's perfect, except for just one thing.

I'm going to have to do some long-haul flights (10-12 hours). And, I know it sounds crazy, but there is no place I'd rather be less than on a plane: trapped inside a small, cramped, flying metal box with 400 people for 10-12 hours. I get claustrophobic and panicked.

I don't know what to do, and I fear I might have to quit before I've even started and go somewhere else that doesn't require travel. I'm going to start seeking expert help for this phobia, but I don't think I'll be able "fix it" any time soon, let alone before I would have to fly.

Looking for your collective advice,

Thanks!

I am working between machine learning and neuroscience, and find such explanations really interesting, so thank you. I would agree that there is currently not a lot of evidence that non-local learning such as backpropagation happens in the brain (event though there are some papers trying to find this evidence). But what you describe still falls into the Hebbian principle ("fire together - wire together") right? And this is still one idea originally engrained in perceptrons. While the brain's local learning algorithm is unknown and would be important to know for machine learning, e.g. to get ahead with unsupervised learning, there is quite some recent evidence that machine learning people are on the right track, at least with what deep convolutional neural networks learn in their hierarchy.
Consulting is highly risky at this point, until you have a couple of clients lined up. The way it's worked for me is that one of my job's partner contacts me on a deal, I do a good job, they recommend me to 5 of their friends (as they know people in the industry), and it snowballs from there.

You just have to get to that sweet spot of meeting the client. Managers are usually smart to put a barrier between the person who does the work and the person who pays for it.

But in your case I would take the risk as your job seems quite dead end.
I think what Org-mode really needs are plugins for other editors or maybe an editor all by itself. Of course, this will likely not happen, because people who love Org-Mode also love emacs. But having to learn and use emacs before being able to learn and use Org-mode just means it will never be really popular.
