Using maven at work and Kotlin-DSL for my personal projects. One of the main pain points for using Kotlin DSL is the speed. It's order of magnitude slower than maven when used with IntelliJ IDE. Sometimes updating the `build.gradle.kts` file and reflecting the updates on IDE can take up to 5 mins. Apart from that really love the improvements made by Kotlin DSL. Finally, I can write the build script without going through the docs/stack overflow all the time.

No the shooting shouldn't be about the discussion on "censorship". The discussion should be about the tendency to resort to extreme levels of violence to settle disputes and settle perceived wrongs.

As far as the attention question, I'm in the same boat. The more I've read about school shooters and the like the more apparent it is how much of an inspiration their predecessors (starting with Harris and Klebold) are. There is this obsession with "Why'd they do it" which leads to a level of attention that appears to be desirable.

Admittedly niche, but my main draw for the 8700K was Hackintosh compatibility.
I'm seeing a lot of "I haven't used it but..." in this thread. As someone who's actually been using Sails consistently since v0.10, I can easily say that it's without a doubt my favorite node framework.

I use it because I can go from idea to functional prototype in just a few hours. I don't need to spend a bunch of time deciding how to best structure my projects because it's obvious where things go.

When I have to work on a product that wasn't built on Sails, it's either a complete mess or it's clean but only because they've burned a ton of development time creating many of the same abstractions that Sails comes with out of the box.

I'll admit, the ORM hasn't always been great when you need to integrate with an existing data store. It's absolutely perfect for simple CRUD apps though and you always have the option to run native queries.

The only other semi-valid complaint I'm seeing is that the docs are bad. Well, they've been bad in the past. The new docs for v1 are loads better. I've referenced them quite a bit over the last few months.

I just launched my second product this year built on Sails and I'll soon start my third. The new features in v1 are absolutely worth giving it a shot if you haven't already.
(Folks have already mentioned Odersky and Grossman for grokking functional programming)

FutureLearn has an introductory Dutch course. I've only learned languages from the Romance family previously, so it was a worthwhile experience. (Dutch-Australian in-laws) It's a taster course requiring further study but well worth satisfying your curiosity.

Dutch (and Frisian) may provide a stepping stone to understanding Old English - there are recognisably 'Germanic' traits.
HN may cite legitimate business interest and not oblige in deletion.

A more extreme example can be that when you perform a deletion, do you also deep delete from logs and backups of logs? What if you need to keep them for audit and forensic purposes?

Edit: citing legitimate business interest does not necessarily mean it will succeed. Courts will have the final say. EU likely will not enforce smaller entities so soon. We may need to see a few court decisions or better guidelines before we get a better idea how to navigate through GDPR.

That depends on your definition of explanation. There are loads of complaints and theories. Here's the official policy: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6162278?hl=en

I'm really not a fan of the policy, and it would be a real shame if it wasn't changed. But it would also be a shame if it was changed because of a shooting. It shouldn't have come to this in the first place.

You made me scroll through the TOS again and triple check. Indeed, there is no clause for wholesale termination, but they do require you to follow the community guidelines. Those guidelines do say that you can't promote violence -- and while committing an act of violence isn't necessarily promotion, it could be interpreted as such.

Still interesting to see that there's no blanket termination policy, though. I stand thoroughly corrected.
I don't think it's clear. How long before our digital neural networks exceed the complexity of our human biological ones? It's possible today with a super cluster of sorts. That is to have roughly the same number of connections between neuron type thingies - it still wouldn't be able to match our brains functionally - that's another problem. And yes our biological neurons are way more sophisticated than what we use today for AI, but again that can be overcome eventually.

This suggests that it's possible one day to have computers some orders of magnitude better. If you look at it from first principles, of course it's possible. The brain is unlikely to be the most efficient design of neural network allowable in this universe. So given enough time, we'll learn how to build it better.

Then it's just a manufacturing and energy problem to match the number of human minds on the planet. So no, I don't think it's impossible at all.

Just ridiculously freaking hard, and not likely to happen in our lifetimes.
I believe that would be illegal because phone companies are “common carriers”? Not sure if that was true in the 70s.
Unless some subsidiary of YC is incorporated in the EU, none of the GDPR rules affect YC (a US company).

That's interesting—I've not heard this before. Thanks!

It's the most astonishingly consistent phenomenon. Nearly as astonishingly, it appears impossible to convince anybody of.
Wouldn't you get the same answer if you ask CEO of any company though?
"... there are no privacy laws in the United States that directly prohibit political campaigns from buying, selling, or manipulating voter data and personally identifiable information.

Without any privacy protections for individuals in the United States, companies such as Cambridge Analytica are able to exploit trillions of bits of personal information about individual voters.

And while Facebook has offered a plethora of apologies and suspended the company from its platform, there's not much you can do about it after the fact.

...

Yet, Facebook users ultimately have little recourse against Facebook itself.

...

Again, federal and state privacy laws offer very little protection."

As I see it: She posted on her site that she made 10 cents for 366,000 views these days. She must have been making quite a bit and then probably the algo determined that she is not making advertiser friendly videos so the spigot got closed. Must have appealed, we all know how those work.

It actually highly depends on client support. There's a few XEPs that help to mitigate message loss, some depending on clients and some -- on both clients and server; apparently most clients don't implement those, and the support on servers is poor as well.
We know that reporting on a killer's identity and motives in detail encourages ideation in others. I think it's fine to talk about these people, but context is important.

Sounds like you are blaming the victim.
I dont disagree that makes sense, in that it theoretically makes Youtube more money as well. Based on that, it seems like they are incentivized to figure it out. Unless that long tail of "non wholesome" videos really doesnt have enough money behind it to make it worthwhile to bother with. Which Im guessing is the case.
The only vulnerability introduced by the servers at keybase is denial of service. I believe the protocol and clients are open source and there is no need to trust their servers for the key distribution part either (keys are cryptographically verified from a variety of sources like DNS, Twitter, Reddit, HN for each recipient)
It's general practice to shut down accounts of people who perpetuate infamous criminal acts, so as to at least prevent copycats.
So if this person was not an employee, it's amazing to me how she got into the building? Usually these large tech campuses are pretty locked down, with at least one badged entrance, and security or front desk staff watching who comes and goes.

That said, I've never visited the YouTube campus, so maybe it bucks the norm.

I incorporated in Estonia few years ago because of what their promo materials say. It’s a total shitshow unfortunately and while it’s true that you can do everything online, it’s not what you think. All user interfaces are straight from the 90s, only the most basic forms are in english and they want to know everything about your business while setting ridiculous limits. For example, you need to have half of your capital available always. If you end the year even with 49% of your capital, you have to submit a report how you are planning to fix the situation. This is highly limiting requirement for any startup. When you need to do anything else than submit the most basic forms, you have to fill in forms that are available only in estonian. If you need help, good luck finding a person who can serve you in english. Don’t get me wrong, estonian people are very nice and will try to help you but the language barrier is very awkward to deal with.

If you plan to incorporate in Estonia, make sure you hire a local accountant because you really can’t decipher their accounting requirements yourself, put the lowest amount of capital required in (2500€) and mentally prepare for overall frustrating experience.

I applaud Estonia for all the efforts they have put into rising from the ashes of russian control but if I knew back then what I know now and had to make a choice now where to incorporate, I would skip Estonia.
They tried that. It's called "the_donald", and it completely overran and ruined Reddit.

Agreed, but the sudden change of the rules - when a lot of people use the platform for their income - is causing a lot of heartache.

I follow a mainstream comedy channel about fitness hosted by a satirical gym guy (brosciencelife) that's fairly mainstream comedy - you'd see darker, less classy comedy in regular TV watching Stephen Colbert discussing Trump philating Vladmir Putin - but the writers, Mike and Gian, are demonotised all the time because there's no granularity in 'controversial'. Meanwhile big channels like Jake Paul were bothering corpses and YouTube didn't care until other creators caused an uproar.

There was a similar case where a new female rapper had a sexy video, and it got demonetised, comparing it to a bunch of more explicit videos from well known rappers which YouTube didn't care about.

It's exactly like Twitter - rules aren't being enforced consistently and it drives people nuts.
It is true for us.

If it wasn't forced upon us for Android dev no one at my employer would even bother to learn what is Gradle.

As far as I'm aware any citizen of the EU is under the GDPR umbrella even abroad.
I made my own colour scheme and you can too
The reason I chose Elon Musk is because he's a household name and most people are familiar with his story. However, 67% of all "high-net-worth" Americans are self made, with only 8% directly inheriting their wealth. [1] If you consider only men (as women have an easier time marrying into wealth) it's 76%.

I used to be more aligned with what you're saying. An eye opening paper for me was this [2]. I ran into that when actually searching information on the chiseling out of the middle class. And that paper does describe that. In 1979 the middle class controlled 46% of all income, and the upper/rich classes controlled 30%. Today (well at least today as of 2014) the rich and upper class control 63% with the middle class left with 26%. There's even been a chiseling out of the middle class as a whole declining from 38.8% of society to 32% of society.

But the eye opener is this. This is the change in the size of each economic group between 1979 and 2014:

- Rich: 0.1% -> 1.8%

- Upper Middle Class: 12.9% -> 29.4%

- Middle Class: 38.8% -> 32%

- Lower Middle Class: 23.9% -> 17.1%

- Poor or Near-Poor: 24.3% -> 19.8%

If you're concerned that partisan bias may be tilting those numbers (as such figures are certainly subject to a variety of different interpretations), wiki has a section on the political stance of the Urban Institute [3]. Beyond that, that paper is quite readable and their methodology very transparent. It's extremely eye opening.

> advertisers should stop allowing online outrage to dictate where they advertise

I agree, but good luck convincing the Tide executives that its okay for their ad to play before a video of a KKK rally.

Furthermore, how do you even create a content platform that doesn't police content and not have it immediately attract scores of users that are only there because they were banned from everywhere else, thus turning your platform into a cesspool that the more mainstream users avoid? (see voat.co)

> So all these people mad that they don't have lots of viewers

That's not the issue at all. They're mad they HAVE lots of views and their videos are being demonetised, and the rules around demonetisation aren't enforced consistently.
It isn't. Its just the noisy people tend to be the most visible. The vast majority of vegans (including myself) just want to find good food.
> People need to realize that using "free" platforms, means they are beyond your control and your fate is up to their vagaries.

People need to realize that there is no such thing as free. Nobody is getting anything for free here, because usage of the service generates analytics data, and it goes into a thick file connected to your account. Those so-called "free" platforms also monopolize the market space, creating less incentives for alternative implementations and competing platforms. Few alternatives are therefore developed, further monopolizing the space, and further cementing the fact that having a choice in the matter isn't in the cards.

Interesting. Yeah, from what I understand the Erlang philosophy was to just throw out the idea of a type system and deal with faults dynamically, which is understandable given the time the language was created. But given what we've learned about type systems in the intervening years, it would be super nice to leverage a type system for this, and greatly reduce the testing overhead.

a) If "everything means something" is at least equal in truth-value to "nothing means anything," it's simply not a matter of percentages.

b) If I understand you correctly, I think you're sneaking the assumption of nihilism back into your argument. The "lie that tells the truth" could also very well describe "everything means something," since I undeniably experience meaningfulness as something and not as nothing, despite all scientific facts. Just as I experience you as another soul though I know you are "just" matter. And this undeniable experience of meaning would undeniably imply a course of action. Non-harm (not treating a soul like an object) most immediately coming to mind.

Perhaps unpopular opinion: it sounds like the senior SDE isn't working out. Being non-condescending to other team members is a core part of the job. It shouldn't be persisting after you tell them that it's a problem that's causing serious conflict within the team.
