If is interesting to you, I also suggest to check out my Rust crate bui-backend[0]. This is a library for building Browser User Interface (BUI) backends. The key idea is a datastore which is synced between the backend and the browser. The demo has several example frontends. The most interesting perhaps is the yew[1] framework, which is somewhat like React but in Rust. This lets you share code directly between the backend (natively compiled) and frontend (compiled to wasm). There is also a pure Javascript frontend, an Elm frontend, and a Rust stdweb frontend in the demo.

Ah, and if you happen to own an Android phone running version 6.0 or newer.

The free beer version of Java never supported AOT because Sun was religiously against it.

The community never managed to gain enough mindshare to keep gcj going, which was used by Red-Hat to ship native compiled versions of Eclipse, Tomcat and JBoss.

Since Oracle thankfully has another opinion on AOT, they have a long term plan to bootstrap Java and remove C++ out of the equation.
I remap the sequence 'j-k' to esc. It provides really fast exiting of insert mode and leaves you on the home row to navigate after.
They never said that, they only said it was not going to be in 2017. The article says this was always their timeline.

If you believe that.

But they never said 2018 and I remember people being very skeptic le that 2018 would happen last year when they first announced they were working on a new Mac Pro.
The article followed a mother of a newborn who was struggling to make ends meet, not a four year old.
Just read a twitter thread about how American culture is negative about everything. https://twitter.com/Noahpinion/status/981341257124397056

And then I found comments on this. Most of them are very cynical.

These are guys who want to give money with no strings attached and its so hard for everyone to even believe something like this is even possible.

I'm more interested in reading thoughts of people who were previously part of aigrant.

Please don't get discouraged, there are several people like me for whom the money and the other credits are very valuable. These are definitely not nothing. Even though you can get cloud credits in other ways, they are not that straight forward. From what I see they are offering, everything is valuable.

"I was accepted by YC when I was an uncredentialed 18 year old. It changed my life. I’ve since been fascinated by systems that find promising outsiders and bring them into the fold. YC does a great job at this for companies. I’m wondering if it would be useful to do it for research ideas as well."

What I would like to know is, from the previous batches, how many do you guys think that fit this category.

I applied last time, but I don't know if I would apply now, mostly time constraints.
>If Neville Chamberlain and his cronies had strangled the infant Nazi regime at its birth, rather than appeasing Hitler, many of those people would have lived.

That wasn't pacifism. That was a mix of avoiding the cost, a miscalculated idea about the long-term plans of Germany, and being OK with having Germany thwart the reds.

Not to mention that it could have been even worse for the victims if they had gone to war immediately, as they were unprepared ("Some recent historians have taken a more favourable perspective of Chamberlain and his policies, citing government papers released under the Thirty Year Rule and arguing that going to war with Germany in 1938 would have been disastrous as the UK was not ready.").

Anyone care to speculate based on physics why this might have worked out this way?

"In the United States, the average diaper sells for about 25 cents.
The quarters add up quickly. Newborns need as many as 12 changes a day. That’s $21 per week, or $84 per month. Bigger kids need fewer, but their diapers are more expensive."
It's a worst case calculation biased towards newborns, which they don't remain all year, obviously. For me, it averaged more like $800 - $400 a year.
Also, 2.99 a pack is insane for me as an American. That would go for about $8-$10 USD, depending on size.
There is abuse of earmarked assistance. UBI isn't unique in that regard.

Trading food stamps (or food purchased with them) for drugs. Etc. The drug addict is going to get drugs one way or another; we may as well reduce the friction (and use the savings to pay for rehab).

Regardless, most of the poor are just trying to get by and not prone to abusing whatever assistance is available.
Understood, although I still think you should consider evaluating .NET Core (even w/o ServiceStack), the latest .NET Standard 2.0 offers a broad and compatible API Surface shared by .NET Framework v4.6.2 and .NET Core. The new msbuild project format is much more human-friendly that together with tools like `dotnet watch run` you can for the first time productively develop C# Apps with command-line tooling and a text editor like VS Code in any OS (that also sports IDE features like intelli-sense/debugging/etc - tho Rider is my personal pref / with VS Code for the SPA front-end). Being able to deploy to Linux opens up a new world of automation possibilities where you have first-class Docker support or can incrementally deploy just changed files in seconds with a single rsync + ssh supervisord bash command run with WSL - everything feels cleaner, faster and more automatable and runs flawlessly cross-platform, e.g. all our .NET Core Apps are developed on Windows and deployed to Linux.

It's a different world with a much improved development model that I find vastly superior compared to traditional classic ASP.NET Framework Web Apps - which I don't see myself ever creating greenfield Apps for again.

>Consuming political news has empowered me to communicate with my elected representatives about policies that matter to me.

Give an example. Otherwise it's a post-hoc hand-waving justification. Also include how you meaningfully communicated with your representative about the issue (e.g. writing a complaint email about the popular news of the day doesn't count).
Why's that a disadvantage of containers versus, e.g. third-party libraries used by an application?

Or you're just asking the wrong question. "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?"; "What is the sound of one hand clapping?" Our language has the ability to frame nonsensical dichotomies.

Or to put it another way, perhaps you're asking for a three dimensional array, but you want its contents to only have two-dimensional qualities. Or you want force and acceleration, but no mass.
You can use toilet paper, and then in addition wash yourself afterwards. That's what bidets are used for by most of Europeans.

All of those are not examples of "pacifism". All those are just people who were in favor of the Nazi Germany as a model of governance and/or profiteering from it.
You assume God's goal is human pleasure. What if it was human growth? A person never grows more than in the struggle of life. What if it was human freedom? Freedom means that evil must sometimes be permitted in the face of overwhelming power. What if it was something outside of human imagination?

You want a God that hands out straightjackets and drugs. I think he has a higher goal than that.
Ask HN: Why hasn't anyone disrupted the restaurant credit card payment process?
Every time I eat out at a restaurant and pay with a card (or when there are multiple people paying with card) I can't help but think how outdated/inefficient the process is.

1.) The bill is dropped off at the table, server leaves
2.) I place my card in the bill, and wait until the server comes back
3.) Server returns, grabs the card, leaves, and runs the transaction (with my CC out of my sight the entire time)
4.) Server returns AGAIN to drop off the receipt where I need to sign and leave a tip

This just seems like a process that hasn't changed for decades. It takes time, and opens up so many avenues of human error (eg server takes a long time during steps 2 and/or 3 while I am in a rush, malicious staff has time to grab my CC#, etc. In my opinion a great system would be:

1.) Bill arrives at the table with a code at the top (eg bill #3fh556)
2.) Customer can open an app, plug in the code, see the whole bill, and instantly pay right then and there with card that is linked to the app
3.) Would also easily let multiple people split a bill down the middle, or only choose & pay for what you ordered
4.) Restaurant has some sort of POS integration that has a list of tables with a 'red' icon for tables that haven't paid yet, and a 'green' icon for tables that have paid.

I suppose it's because the restaurant industry is very averse to change (if it's working, don't change it) and the fact that there are multiple POS systems in play.

However, in my mind I feel like this would be a game-changer and any restaurant that does this consumers would love.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this..
There were games that went all or mostly in on not being a clickfest for resource management - Myth, Ground Control off the top of my head, Total Annihiliation had a different model for resources. My personal preference was for these over Starcraft/Warcraft in multiplayer, but it was nice to have so many options.

I wonder who the target market is, though? The iMac Pro can cost £5000, so I assume more performance and hence price than that? The only users who I can imagine willing to justify paying such a premium are those who feel they must remain at the cutting edge of performance and are willing to pay for it, but surely they will have left the Apple ecosystem by then?

It's as if Apple are saying "we're making a computer for people who demand peak performance, but are willing to use cheap outdated hardware until we get round to it."

I think the west did a pretty good job of standing up to Stalin as much as they could without actually igniting WW3. The cold war ended without any direct conflict between belligerents after all, and the soviet union fell.

That is, if you take as a constraint that you don't actually want to start an all-out war, the post-WW2 west stood up to Stalin in probably the best way it possibly could have.

They are expensive because they haven't hit the price points which induce demand pressure downward.

That said, the thread holding this narrative together is the terrible welfare system in the United States.

I see absolutely zero reason why the 0-3 y/o in poverty shouldn't qualify for free diapers from the local welfare offices, no questions asked.

n.b., cloth diapers are a fair bit of work, and a substantial investment early on.
Confiscation is, as you've identified, fruitless. Only governments without level-headed leaders will try.

Global regulation remains a risk for cryptocoins. If the only remaining utility is the black/grey market, cryptocoins become much less valuable and will end up losing a lot of interest.

> In short, there’s no reason why apt and dnf or whatever couldn’t work in a similar way npm or bundle do, except that Linux distributions seem to be disinterested. (And occasionally throw a specious fit about “bundling” when features like this are proposed. Or are unwilling to understand why the ability to install multiple versions of a package is necessary.)

Wouldn't this just require tighter integration with environment modules (http://modules.sourceforge.net/) or similar?
Qt has the moc/resource compiler that can do this for you. Not that you would/should shoehorn qmake into your project for it though, but they do it nonetheless.

Make you can use qmake as a prebuild step and include the generated moc files in your build? I wonder how many qt headers are in the generated source files.
> Of course our streets are ever-changing, so our cars need to be able to recognize new conditions and make adjustments in real-time. For example, we can detect signs of construction (orange cones, workmen in vests, etc.) and understand that we may have to merge to bypass a closed lane, or that other road users may behave differently.

Doesn't sound like the cars blindly trust potentially stale maps.

Well, I mean, I personally know people who are living paycheck to paycheck who cloth diaper, it's not basically impossible like you suggest. It's really, really not.
> There is wisdom and much to learn from the ideas in the Torah even if you dont buy into their accuracy. It's just too shallow to dismiss it as superstitious ancestors who werent as smart as us.

>From a purely pragmatic standpoint, the very fact that we are finite beings in a world that will survive our existence means that our life will face tragedy...and the best way to cope with a tragic existence is to find meaning in life and in our actions.

Agreed.

> Considering you grew up religious, I am assuming you had a modern Yeshiva education...like many others, it sounds like they failed to show you the pragmatic wisdom in yiddishkeit and instead left you feeling unconnected with your brilliant history.

This is condescending, in my opinion. You're presuming to know why they don't accept the religious narrative. It's great that it speaks to you, but it doesn't speak to them and it doesn't have to. I might be reading too much into this, but it seems you're invoking the common meme that "if you would only have had the wonderful opportunities to learn in this yeshiva or that one, or to appreciate the 'true beauty' of this stream or another of Judaism, you'd agree with my point of view." Maybe, maybe not. Maybe GP had a superior education than you did, and if YOU would have had the education GP had, you'd reject religion too?

> I would encourage you to try to pass on the parts that you did connect with and the pragmatic wisdom in much of the torah and halacha to atleast give your children the chance to make their own decisions.

Maybe the opposite is true? Maybe the only way to give children a fair choice is to NOT indoctrinate them with ideas they didn't choose, and instead give them a blank slate from which to start?

No matter what you do for your children, you're making decisions for them. Raise them religious, you're exposing them to X instead of Y. Raise them secular, you're choosing Y instead of X. There's no way to give them everything, you have to make choices for them.
I'd assume mostly people who want really hefty GPUs (and for whom eGPUs aren't an option). The iMac Pro won't help you there.
And that $30 is for 2 months of diapers. Roughly $0.50/day. It's not like those people are getting paid daily. And I'm pretty sure they're good enough at math to realise that buying in bulk is cheaper. Unless they lack social skills or have addictions, which is totally different can of worms. And not exclusive to poor people.

Even if they're working illegally and getting paid daily, they probably get monthly welfare.
Well, Turbo Pascal, Delphi and Oberon also supported it, and they check some of those bullet points.

Many devs do actually enjoy those Apple/Microsoft toolchains.
Governments don't outlaw all speculation (which is what cryptocurrencies currently are), or for that matter actual investments for the most part. They regulate them to ensure that mostly people aren't being robbed blind, and they want their cut (i.e. taxes).

So long as you aren't hoping to use them as a tax fraud scheme I don't see why you would expect the government to want to shut it down. If you do hope to use it as a tax fraud or the like, you're likely in for an unpleasant time once the slow-but-steady process starts to focus on that.

We've had this conversation for over 20 years. There is broad consensus that undermining encryption is dangerously bad policy and yet the FBI continues with their magical thinking. Strong encryption has more benefits than costs and therefore should continue unimpeded.
So, aside from the fact that this is screaming for chip + pin, isn't this a failure on the cardmaker's part to make a card that you can remove the chip without destroying the card?

Have you ever heard someone say something like "I got gypped out of X" or "what a gyp!". It's slang for something like a scam or getting ripped off. It originally comes from the word "gypsy", which is an actual ethnicity of people in Europe, who have a negative stereotype of theft/dishonesty.

The ! indicates the object you are "calling" is a macro, which essentially replaces that call with the equivalent syntax which is produced by applying the macro.

In addition to the older hygenic macros (which have their own syntax to define them), Rust also supports proc_macros, which are actually code that is executed by the compiler and can preprocess a struct or function.

For more information, see the Rust Book (second edition) section on macros:

When I was young and impressionable it was done done. My last contracting gig the project manager (who was honestly too good for the customer and noped out after about 14 months and told me countless times “you can’t fix stupid”) started saying done done done.

And still people would say, when asked if they were done done done, “yes, but...”

At some point the developer is done with a task even if the task isn’t done with them. And they will make any rationalization necessary to take partial credit for completion.
That blue strip on newborn diapers must be generating billions of revenue.

Newborns pee so little and diapers absorb so much that one diaper would be enough for the whole day. But with the strip, people switch them every few hours :)
The evils of premature optimization are well known but from my experience, execution often isn't the bottleneck, memory is.

Which mean you can get a lot of benefits by optimizing your data structures. Making them smaller is a good start. Unfortunately, changing data structures can have far reaching implications, sometimes justifying a complete rewrite.

For example, going from string based hashes to raw C structures can yield massive improvements, but you need to rewrite most of the code that access it, even parts that are rarely used.

Another performance killer are deep copies. This is also hard to optimize out because if you switch to a more efficient reference, you need to mess up data for the rest of the program in every part that uses it.
I don't think anyone would classify the HN crowd as "conservative" in the US political spectrum sense. Libertarian I can see, but I don't think I've ever seen socially conservative posts/comments voted up.
I'd say an implementation in all popular languages would be important. I hear decent work has been done with Rust, and I'd love to see something for Elixir. But as I understand it part of the problem is lack of spec/documentation. If we had that, perhaps it'd be easier for a variety of implementations? php, ruby, python, etc.

You seem to be thinking of a detected compromise, which may have compromised secret X, and your response is to change secret X right now. And I think that's the correct response.

But in another sense, all your secrets are potentially compromised, all the time. That is, there are compromises that you don't detect, or don't detect right away. They happen. What should you do? Well, you change the secrets every 90 days, even if you don't (yet) know that they have been compromised, to minimize the damage of a compromise that you don't know about.

But, you may say, by that logic shouldn't we change them every day? Every hour? But the other tradeoff is with annoying your users, wasting peoples' time on changing secrets, wasting time as they have to try to remember today's secret, and all the associated hassle. It's a compromise between better security and better usability.

Is 90 days the right compromise? I don't know.
What's non-'Pro' about the current 15" MBP that was 'Pro' about the previous design? They're practically the same.

If you mean no SD card reader etc, it's my understanding that pro photographers tended to use a USB3/thunderbolt reader anyway, as the integrated reader was connected over USB2 internally and was far too slow for pro use.
