Some regulations make the market less free, some make it more free. Many free markets degrade into oligopolies and eventually monopolies unless they are regulated.

Free market economics is something you learn on the first day of economic theory. But then you very quickly learn that they don't actually exist or if they did exist would be very bad for us (due to high external costs etc.) In what market do consumers really have perfect knowledge? Which markets really have no barriers to entry? Some economists argue that the existence of marketing and advertising immediately defeats any hope of a free market.
MoMA's "Fashion as Design" course was pretty interesting: https://www.coursera.org/learn/fashion-design/
Important to note that Urban areas continue to grow, but the rate at which they've been growing is decreasing, while suburban growth rates are increasing again. To me, the comparison feels a bit dodgy, as a much smaller change in suburban population will move the growth rate for those areas compared to Urban areas, due to lower populations, and Urban centers continue to grow, just slower than before.
Taking investment advice from someone who types polemics on HN all day was never a sound strategy.

See, one data point does not necessarily disprove the worth of another. Floyd was promoting a scam in this instance, but that doesn't mean he is completely incapable of uttering the words, "buy an asset that slowly and predictably and sustainably rises faster than inflation."
erf, damning indeed
It is possible to find a suburban job and live in that suburban area, but if you want to leave or the company leaves, you will either have to move or have a long commute somewhere else.
They need to improve on it, badly. Operating a line at 40% capacity is terrible for your bankaccount.
But it's de facto the same in most shops. If you pick up some goods and walk out of the shop leaving some cash on the counter... what recourse do they have?

OK, the shop might not be happy about it, but you owe them the value of goods, and you've paid them in legal tender to the correct amount.
I got it running on asrock ab350 gaming-itx/ac issues found so far:

- No dual screen support (the board has 2xHDMI 1.4). The fix is in firmware 4.51A which is still in beta

- When installing debian needed to use vga=771 in the console

- X11 would freeze a few times but with Linux 4.15.0-2-amd64 that issue seem to have been fixed
This is Apple's vision because Google owns the browser market. PWAs could replace at least half the apps people are using. Reddit absolutely doesn't need native apps but there are a bunch because their mobile experience is so bad.

>improve the schools in urban cores

This is the one that matters in the Rust Belt. It's not more expensive, really, to live in a trendy neighborhood in St. Louis or Cincinnati or whatever, than it would be to live in a nice suburb, but the schools are terrible. It's a cliche in these towns that even the most "City committed" folks move out when they start a family.
Easy to say, but it is hard to reverse. Those currently in cities don't have kids (yet?), and thus aren't interested in fixing the problems. Either they don't care at all, or they care more about who will keep the taxes low (since taxes translate into rent). For those that will eventually have kids this is to their detriment, but for the others.

Confounding this is the fact that those who do send their kids to city schools are poor because of lack of education and they are passing their lack of value for education to their kids. Even if one person does stay in the city it will be hard for their kids when all the peer pressure doesn't value education (this isn't insurmountable, but it is a negative parents have to fight)

Remember in the US schools have a significant amount of local control. The federal or state government in large part cannot step in and say "do thing this way" - even if we agreed on what is the right thing to do (we don't) the power to get anything done is lacking where it is needed.

In short there are significant headwinds that you would have to counter. You alone cannot do it, and getting enough other people interested is hard.
Yes, conflated cloud and containers in my head when writing that comment.
I should hope that “all the hardware is there for level5” also means that it operates as a very good level 2 until Tesla enables autonomy - which happens when software and approvals are ready - which may be a decade.

If they sell something now that has hardware for level 5 but neither software nor approval for level 5, but they weasel-maket it as “autopilot” and users can enable a mode where they can let go of the wheel - then they are just criminal.
It's over $100 or $150 here in Canada here before you have to use the PIN. Basically never have to use the PIN in day-to-day purchases.

But yes, when the PIN comes into play it's slower than cash.

in a time when our government agencies (EPA) are defying scientific data and permitting OEMs to continue raping the planet, we all need to chill the hell out and continue supporting Tesla.

Our children and grandchildren deserve a better world. Additionally, China will outright leapfrog America in the EV/energy race. Tesla must survive; America depends on it.

> There is also support to control the colors of these components from software

This is the definitive characteristic. You have customizable color on "RGB" hardware. If you have three LED's to support changing color, you might as well go with RGB and use a software-defined color.

There is sometimes support for running all of the color changes from one piece of software but other times, you must reverse-engineer the commands yourself and write a central controller for it all. Could be a great pass-time. There's a tool for emitting the motherboard's bus commands along whatever standard, so if you figure out how to use the optional bits, you can make RAM glow in sync with the graphics card on an unsupported motherboard.

Most fun and learnt a lot in Introduction to Mathematical Thinking taught by Keith Devlin. I did this course from Coursera in 2012. The most fun part was the forum where students collaborated to discuss and gain better understanding of the problems.

To the contrary. Rent in the cities has plateaued, but mostly capped by the amount that banks and tech companies are willing to pay new grads.

There are a few places in the country where the immediate suburbs are very different, cost-wise, than everywhere else. Mainly NY, LA, and SF. You'd have to go really far there to find sub-500K housing. It's different elsewhere.
If psychological manipulation to the point of causing harm to people is necessary to make our system work, maybe it's a system that doesn't work. Anyway - advertising isn't along the same lines as literally making it more difficult for people to make the connection between spending money and, well, spending money.
Seconded! Odersky is a great lecturer (and very practical lecturer despite Scalas "academic" reputation) and the course was very well organized.

I did the course on the first or second run however, not sure if it has been kept up to date or if it is still well run.

Was disappointed with the follow up courses though, the lecturers didn't live up to Odersky.
CS50 on EdX was a great intro course helping me to get into programming.

Agile Development Using Ruby on Rails (in two parts) on EdX was also great, primarily because they encouraged students to set up pair programming sessions over Google Hangouts. It's amazing how many ways there are to solve a problem, and live discussions in small groups over Hangouts were an outstanding resource to learn.

I am currently enjoying courses from the Applied Data Science with Python specialization on Coursera. I love how they are using Jupyter notebooks for assignments; it makes the problems feel realistic and at the same time very accessible.
I'm a definitive millennial, I have access to multiple video streaming libraries, 3 game consoles, literally 100s of video games, all of the internet, and any book I could want. I still find myself looking at my copious amounts of entertainment and think "I don't want to do any of this right now." I may have a netflix queue in the hundreds and entire series I want to watch, but I experience the boredom that only comes when you have so many options you can't pick one. I don't think this is unique to teens.

Whatever backlash Amazon faces for asking for overall average SAT scores, it's nothing compared to the backlash they'd get if they'd asked for average SAT scores for white and asian kids from married two-parent families with a six-figure household income, english as a first language and both parents college graduates.
Great points!

One of the nice side effects of using the cloud is production systems don't normally change name anymore.

I can name a machine db2, and if I don't need it anymore, it's quick to destroy it, and create a new machine of the same size named appserver15.
You HAVE to reside in the EU, to use the tld .eu. its that simple. Its not nefarious.

The law was created a long time ago (The UK had input) and was perfectly fine up till the part where the UK decided to leave the EU. The UK is allowed to leave (as much as people wish it didnt) but the UK is not allowed to get a free pass on law just because it cant be arsed dealing with legislation.

That very tld legislation requires people to be resident of the EU and is being enforced as per the original TLD agreement, and you think that the EU is causing "Chaos and confusion"?????? just by enforcing their law that the UK no longer wants to be part of?

Im sure no one wants to deal with the paperwork of 300K sites changing hands etc, but thats the law.

Its so arrogant to think that Britain is going to get the benefits of the EU while leaving the EU. I ask, on what planet would that happen?

I just wish whingers would stop blaming the EU, for the results and "chaos" of the UKs decisions that it took all by itself. Beyond lame.
I see the opposite here in the USA in rural areas. People are constantly holding up the lines because of the chip/pin updates or other failures and confusions. With cash it is always just simple and quick.

And I know it doesn't matter but when you pay with a credit card or third party payment service you are not paying. Some other entity is.

WYSIWYG can often take more resources on a webpage, and act unpredictably and with less control over formatting.

Atlassian's Confluence wiki was one of the most painful tools I've ever had to use in a professional capacity, largely because their editor several years ago was so atrocious. I was forced off of it from a nice, Markdown-based wiki our team had been running.

So I would miss Markdown. BTW, having live preview/having a WYSIWYG toolbar with Markdown editing is a happy meeting of both worlds; I don't see the issue with it.
Of course, and yet there is a reason that demographics is useful only when dealing with aggregates... it tells you nothing about a specific individual. Trying to use inferred data from the behaviors of millions of people is quite useful in discovering certain aggregate info, but using it in place of a specific individual's chosen intent is an excellent way to lose a user.

The problem is most of us are already limited in what we can do on our devices by battery life and mining will serve only to drastically shorten the runtime of your device

Also PoS is not generally mined or if it is it will have a PoW phase to mine the coins until all are created and it then becomes PoS
And under a plan where EVERYONE equally receives that UBI, I can see how you can say it's "being paid to sleep."

Under a plan where people are being paid unequal amounts simply for being alive, that's where it's wrong.
The claim that we live in a free market system is not the same as the claim we live in absolutely free market system.
"but the amount of time and energy saved by having "exact change" every transaction should increase productivity enough to cover any costs."

I doubt that's the case, especially since fees are usually percent based. Someone accepting, making change for, and depositing $1000 vs. $1 takes about the same amount of effort, but $1000 charged will cost them much more than $1 charge. Maybe if the fees were flat or something like 0.001%, but they're always much higher.
It's also interesting to look at Stallman's tone: he's defeated. "What can be done about privacy Mr Stallman?" "Society needs to care more." It's the same tone JPB had when asked about how the EFF can have an impact on younger generations who take the internet for granted. "They need to care more. And education."

They're not wrong, of course. And your comment is very similar: the problem isn't the technology, it's the impetus of society that needs to change.

Hi HN! This blog post is about Project Sistine, a hack that I worked on with @antimatter15, @bijection, and @logane. We turned a MacBook into a touchscreen using only $1 of hardware (a small mirror, some pieces of a rigid paper plate, and a door hinge).

We built this prototype some time ago, but we never wrote up the details of how we did it, and so we thought we should share. We're happy to answer any questions you might have about the project!
There are plenty of cities where raising a family is doable. Albany, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, St. Louis, even Chicago. Of course you're talking about NYC, San Fran, and LA and therein lies the problem.

clang, modulo bugs, is fully C++ ABI compatible with GCC (they both follow the intervendor Itanium ABI) on unix systems.

Make sure you use the same standard library for all components because libstdc++ and libc++ are different implementations with completely different object layouts. Usually libstdc++ is the system standard library implementation on most Linux flavours (i.e. it is part of the OS ABI), so unless you have specific requirements, go with that (specifically, it should work fine with clang).

libstdc++ ABI changed between C++03 and C++11 (that's probably the issue you are having with the string), but even in C++11 mode it is possible to use the old ABI (it is a compile time parameter), if you are willing to put up with the old reference counted strings, O(N) std::list::size and other minor things. If you can it is better to move the the new libstdc++ ABI of course, because the old one might not be maintained forever (it has been unchanged since GCC 3.6, though).

Windows is a pain because while the compiler ABI itself hasn't changed in a very long time (although undocumented I believe it has been fully reversed engineered), VC++ doesn't promise a stable library ABI and in fact it has breaking changes every major release.
That’s assuming Apple manly uses existng core designs from AMD etc and doesn’t significantly contribute improvements for their own systems, to gain advantages over the chips available to their competitors. But surely adding a hefty dose of their own secret sauce would be the only thing that would make such a move worthwhile?

What’s being suggested is not that Apple use AMD designs. It’s that Apple partner with AMD in order to gain licensing cover for their own largely or completely in-house engineered chips.

One of the problems is that the software you run on your own computer hasn't been the major source of privacy concerns in a long, long time. That isn't to say that software on your computer doesn't track you, but it's dwarfed by the amount of tracking and privacy issues that you need to compromise on to use the vast majority of the internet.

It's noble and laudable to take the same stance towards freedom and privacy that RMS does, essentially check out of the modern internet, and reduce your web usage to calling wget on a shell, but that's not a workable solution for the vast majority of people.

Another oddball choice for HN, but the Coursera course Think Again: How to Reason and Argue, by Duke University's Ram Neta and Walter Sinnott-Armstrong [1] is exceptional.

The subject matter covers a staggering breadth of topics, which can be characterised as either (a) fundamentals of philosophical reasoning, or (b) stuff that amateur internet-debaters think they understand but actually don't.

Which, in my view, just means we've vastly overstated the case for revealed preferences. A heroin addict doesn't actually care more about heroin than about his kids, no matter what his actions seem to say. He's an addict.
I hear a lot of people say that too, but Apple itself has repeatedly said that iOS and macOS serve different purposes and they will remain separate products.

What we do see Apple doing is consolidating some aspects of iOS and macOS development. That makes sense since iOS was originally built on the OS X kernel, but then allowed to diverge.
