I don't think it's very charitable of you to assume that just because people don't believe that police handling of drug crimes is effective they don't also think the opiate crisis in the US is a big deal (I'm assuming that's what you're referring to).

If you don't believe that a solution works, then further effort on a non-functioning solution isn't a big deal, even if you feel the problem is a problem.
I think war is used more in the sense of a "mission" in such cases. People see the single-mindedness, cooperation and the spirit of sacrifice that happen during a war, and wonder if why we cant bring that to bear against the other challenges we face.

At work, we sometimes set up a "war-room" during production downtime - again the logic is the same : we need to work with single-minded focus on this one problem and all else is secondary to getting the system up again.
What do you watch at morning?
Tldr: i'm looking for daily ~10 minutes-long videos about business and tech, very intensive and positive like Techcrunch, intellectual and without business-training-ish bullsh*t.

I used to listen to various podcasts, but sound-only sources are usually too calm - doesn't set the right rhythm for a day. And the most intensive business-ish podcasts i know contains a lot of useless demagogy, which became unbearable for me to listen.

I used to watch Techcrunch before it has been discontinued. Their news were a bit too short, contained superficial information and sometimes were very opinionated. Though, the vibe was very good. Techcrunch + some previously saved article text-to-speach makes about 10-15 minutes, which is good enough. So, something like techcrunch would be acceptable.

TED talks are obviously not frequent enough and mostly too long.

Talks from famous entrepreneurs are rare and repetitive.

I haven't seen any somewhat developed startup case studies channels, but that would be great, i think.

Thank you!
You can actually prepare soured milk yourself, from untreated fresh milk (or possibly even from pasteurised, but not from UHT or UV treated).
Perhaps, but what I was trying to convey is that your own company gives you the freedom to choose your risks without restriction. Working for someone doesn't usually allow you to do that (as your boss decides your risk environment).
Good point. I hadn't even thought of that. Along with long horizons generally, this probably explains a lot about militaries' "price inflexibility." Launching is a smaller component of more expensive whole.

I wrote about my personal experience with bike helmets a few years ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1749644#1750459):

When I was with my ex-girlfriend her little sister was knocked off her bike, also by a totally reckless driver doing over 80km/h in a 50km/h zone. She suffered serious head trauma, they didn't actually think she'd make it through the night. She did survive but had pretty serious behavioural problems after that, and died a few years later of a cerebral tumour which was almost certainly related.

I'll never forget the surgeon when he first came out of the operating room. He said: "If she had been wearing a helmet, none of this would have been necessary and she'd be fine." You could see clearly in his face that he'd seen this way too many times.

I have another more recent anecdote since having kids myself. A friend of a friend here has a son the same age as our daughter. When he was 3 he was out on his scooter without a helmet, and fell off - nothing out of the ordinary, except he happened to hit his head on the concrete corner of a ramp. We live in a small town, he had to be choppered out to the nearest city, spent significant time in ICU, multiple brain surgeries, and the kid is now epileptic.

I've also had the experience of falling when snowboarding not wearing a helmet, and not even going very fast. I woke up inside an MRI machine several hours later after a serious concussion.

You can do what you want for yourself and your kids. Mine are going to wear helmets. There is no learning curve for head injuries.

digged a little into this.

art 17 relevant excerpt seems these:

> the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure

so it seems a "disallow" in robots would solve the issue with crawlers and public data, but that works at page levels, not content level. pushing a crawl request after information erasure may not be enough, since we need to inform the controllers on why the data has changed, not just that it has changed.
It's almost irrelevant whether the people proposing this law have good or bad intentions. The current establishment may mean well, but the road to hell us paved with good intentions. There is no guarantee that a regime in 30 years won't abuse these regulations.

While I don’t think the terminology is explicitly standardized, I think most people in the relevant fields would call that statement of the ideal gas law an equation but not a formula, the latter being a special case of the former.
I'm just guessing but maybe you were flagged because of the way you argue. You're both strawmaning my argument and associating it with a conspiracy theory. Nobody would be against a good faith debate.

My opinion is not as fringe as you make it to be. It's true that there are consensus from politicians and the media about what happened but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the truth. In fact, respectable academics are looking at this from scientific point-of-view and coming to the same conclusion.

Here is a UK professor applying probablity theory to understand the weight of the evidence for the alternative explanation in the alleged gas attacks in 2017 and 2013: https://timhayward.wordpress.com/2017/08/31/who-is-responsib...
Are you saying that you can not realize the idea that a full enforcement capacity of the law will change people's relationship to law enforcement or do you implicitly say that tsuch potential change is nothing to worry about?

Honest question as the first is just a capacity problem and the second (I guess) a moral argument.

> A big part of software engineering is to engineer the logic to get the correct result as fast as possible.*

Engineering is all about working within a set of constraints. Things that are easier and/or cheaper to manufacture, have clearly been engineered that way.

It can't be a coincidence that we consider CPU time and memory footprint "costs".
I would have thought the opposite! I kick myself for spending so much time working on esoteric systems-level things I'll likely never be able to monetize, while some friends do SEO/clickbait/celeb news stuff with little technical merit and drive BMWs.
We're clearly operating on seperate planes here. Your reasoning as far as I can tell, is your own belief, and not based on evidence that anyone can verify. My reasoning is based on Apples actions, their own comments, experiences of third party repair shops who are being threatened by Apple, and my own experience with third party repair shops.

I can never understand why people want to stop others from choosing where they repair their products. If you (not you specifically) think third party repairs are shady, well great ! you already have a choice and you can get yours serviced at Apple. We should be free to make decisions about things we own. Apple fighting to block our right is disspointing.

>But I still think it's much more likely that Apple just doesn't test for third-party repairs than that they deliberately work to come up with ways to break a third-party repair without breaking their own repairs.

There is no "testing for repair". When you replace a component on a logic board, it either works or if its sabotaged (like inkjet cartriges, kurig kcups, iphone screens), it doesn't. And thats if you're doing a component level repair. For parts replacement, it should be way easier. I get the feeling you're not very familiar with how electronics repair works. It is really nothing like software.

I am not sure if this is still the case today, but I remember that not too long after the new orthography / grammar rules were passed, two major news publishers announced that they would return to the old rules.

Also, my sister is a linguist, and I can trigger her going on a long rant just by mentioning the Rechtschreibreform. ;-)

(Personally, I think some of the new orthography rules are much simpler and consistent, so I use them. The rest I basically ignore, unless a spellchecker nags me about it.)

That's a great question. Answer: a lot of control.

In order to run the cache experiment Vlad had to file an access control ticket which I had to approve. He was given access to cached images from two dogfooding/guinea pig machines and was able to run his experiment on those machines. They are not machines through which we run 'normal' production traffic.
The author provides the example

o.f()
f(o)

and states that o.f() implies that f is polymorphic while f(o) implies a source code dependency on a particular function f. They conclude objected oriented is polymorphic, while functional is referentially transparent.

This is not true. In the functional case of f(o), o could be a value with a type which is an instance of a type class which must define a function f. In which case f is a polymorphic function. Comparably to how o.f() implies o is a type (ie a class) which implements an interface that requires the class implement a method f. However in the function case we get polymorphism AND referential transparency. Whereas in the object oriented case we have no garauntees about referential transparency.

Well but is that really Google's responsibility?

And if company A can have the luxury of copying Google and ignoring perfectly capable candidates because they had a C+ in one exam, what is the issue? There is then company B that cannot afford not to have that candidate recruited and she might turn out great.

At the end of the day, GPA is an imperfect ordering of candidates by quality, but it is such an ordering, and companies with the sweetest offer (money, prestige) will be able to get the best candidates, be that they look at GPA or not.

And it is not as if someone with a C+ is banished from the workforce - just from Google and the other companies that can afford to be so exquisite.

Many drug overdoses come as a result of it being illegal. You can't be sure of the potency, and there is the incentive to use different active ingredients (higher potency, thus being easier to smuggle, but also increasing the risk of overdose).

> If we're going to be adults, we're also going to recognize that many of us were not adults when these contracts were drawn up and signed. Many of us were never even born, and some of those who were of the right age opposed them to some degree or another.

Which curiously, is exactly the solution we have in place now: reduced benefits for new employees to compensate for outsized ones for retirees. Should they stand for this?

> It's not a responsible behavior to over promise pensions and bankrupt dozens of states either. Nor, in the pursuit of fulfilling those reckless promises, is it responsible to bankrupt future generations.

You're ignoring the substantial hand states have had in making this crisis. Several have continually neglected their annual contributions. Maybe they were backed into a corner when tax reciepts fell in 2008, maybe it was a political self-inflicted wound. When states like Kansas or Colorado cut taxes and take on substantial debt, it's pretty goddamn odious to point to budget shortfalls and say "Sorry employees, we can't make our pension obligation, we have interest payments to make!"

Moreover, when demanding pensions take a cut while paying lenders 100 cents on the dollar, you're concentrating investment losses onto those least able to afford it.
It's also worth taking into account the level of finish. As a landlord it’s almost always not worth spending more for good quality items, as they usually won’t increase your returns. It’s more important how the property looks, than the quality, which I’d say is why IKEA is so popular nowadays.

If you want an induction hob, a good mattress, proper ventilation system so the windows don’t have condensation and something other than paper thin walls, you are pretty much out of luck in the UK. On the other hand if you are fitting out your own place, upgrading to better quality items like this doesn’t really cost that much more (e.g. £200 for an induction hob vs £100 for a ceramic hob).
While this reasoning may be common, I don't think it's to anyone's benefit. Talking about "the" formula for kinetic energy seems nonsensical, when there are so many ways to state that relationship. Another option is p^2=mK.

But there is a good reason to write it as K=mv^2/2 which has nothing to do with specifying a computation. It is the result of symbolic integration of p=mv with respect to v.

It's very significant, because the parent claimed US manufacturing had been hollowed out. That hasn't actually occurred.

The Fed's measurement of real manufacturing output is 70% higher than it was 30 years ago (the population is merely 1/3 larger).

Further, manufacturing is booming in the US. [1] In China it has been barely expanding for years, and that's despite China supporting their manufacturing base with vast state subsidies that have generated extreme over-production in things like steel.

The US has a perpetual cheap energy advantage over most of the rest of the world that is helping to spur that manufacturing boom. Natural gas prices are typically half that of the rest of the developed world or lower, as are electricity prices (US electricity costs are something like 35% that of Germany). Then throw on top the substantial corporate income tax cuts that will bolster manufacturing income margins.

The US outlook for manufacturing is brighter than it is for all other major economies. [2]

Being forced to sell a product in perfectly good computer just because the manufacturer goes to extreme lengths to stop you from even performing the most trivial upgrade ever is not a solution. In fact, that caters to a single party's interests, which is the manufacturer itself. You're being forced by the manufacturer to waste a bigger chunk of your hard-earned money by giving it away to him.
To be fair, a lot of crime evidence is in the phones. Given that we want cops to investigate and jail them, you can't blame them for doing everything possible--within the law. $15k is nothing, labs cost money, detective time cost money and so on.

It took a long time. I was there.
I was disappointed that something better than Smalltalk wasn't on the Mac and iPhone (Smalltalk was truly wonderful in the context of the 70s, but we considered it just a step in a good direction).

Not understanding Hypercard was one of Apple's largest mistakes in the world of end-users. It was a real breakthrough in something that end-users could really handle and be usefully programmable by them. Besides not understanding its significance on the Mac, we (old Parc hands) pleaded until we were blue in the face to make HC the basis of a really good web browser (it was a great model of a symmetric author-consumer media tool). Missing the latter was a tragedy.

In the light of the first comment, we could then contemplate an end-user system that combined what was great about Hypercard, Smalltalk, and some other experience from the 80s (e.g. the use-cases from Ashton-Tate "Framework", etc.).
> many of our cases are from drug overdose deaths were opening the deceased persons phone may allow us to find out who delivered the lethal dose

An alternative way of looking at it is that they died from a drug overdose and you are using that as a reason to invade their privacy. Something about that doesn't sit quite right with me - I know if I had family who died in those circumstances I wouldn't want you pouring through their life.

One can be smart enough to work at Apple and also be dumb in a lot of ways. It's easy being manipulated ("nobody will know it was from you! you're a confidential source"), and it's definitely easy to think of yourself above all laws, or at least too smart to ever get caught.

> Consider the alternative story where Mark is a wife beater

An unemployed and bitter wife-beater is a much greater risk of continuing beating his wife (and possibly kids) compared to a wife-beater who is employed. Also, and it pains me to say this, there is a really low correlation between wife-beaters and professional performance, and in today's world where most everything is oriented on results that matters. Case in point: John Lennon was a wife-better but he was also a very good singer and song-writer, so people focused more on his music talents than on his wife-kicking abilities. And his case is not the only one. Not saying that it was the right thing to ignore his private life when judging him, just mentioning the facts.

Although consumerism was already in full effect in the 80s people hadn't been conditioned into anything like the crazy update cycle we're in nowadays. I suppose the business world may have been different (seems unlikely?) but at least in home/personal computing people weren't buying new computers every 2-3 years - people did keep them for years. Maybe technically they'd have been devalued but if you're still using an item and it's doing its job the resale value isn't a consideration (in the late 90s it was still common for people in eg. sales offices to be using thin terminals with green-screen monitors, despite Windows PCs being readily available).

Well.... You can start by reading the news piece that's the source of this discussion. You know, the article on how Apple went to extreme actions to stop even their very own customers from even repairing their broken products or even upgrade them to a usable state.
It's a black box that you don't know quite how it works, and you are required to give a third party access to it at all times. I don't know how you can state with certainty that nothing else on the phone was changed.
