This is not my experience, owning one and having owned another. Foreigners can own outright or have a stake in multiple types of organizations, either directly or indirectly, though not all (certain protected sensitive industries such as media, finance, etc.). I suppose this is perhaps a misconception based upon some kind of isolated incidence in which a domestic Chinese registered company had issues writing a foreign investor as a direct shareholder. I am certain this can be done but wouldn't be surprised if it may require alteration of the registration category of the company or the reformation of a new entity owing to the ancient (but improving!) corporate registration system which was geared toward early large foreign industrial investments which came with substantial government shepherding. I seriously doubt the assumed case that caused this misconception is some kind of conniving attempt at ineffective protectionism - far more likely just the wee end of inertia stemming from old-school socialist bureaucracy.
And it's back up.
Nothing surprising here. The "electronic lock" (and fire/burglar alarm) market is full of snake-oil salesmen and incompetent people who sell the stuff assuring you it's secure without actually having tested it.

With conventional locks a good locksmith can tell you which one is safe because they know how locks work, how to crack them and could've even tried to crack it themselves.

With new locks the "locksmiths" have zero idea how the lock even works and only go from information the reseller or original manufacturer (often a shady Chinese company) provides, without even any attempts at actually understanding how the thing works.

There is also no concept of updates, even though an electronic lock is a computer and is subject to the same vulnerabilities as their desktop counterparts.
Someone mentioned The Art of Electronics, can't recommend this highly enough, it's accessible and teaches you what you need to know to glue modules together and even build some of your own. A classic.
We are Mac developers and for many years now we have been frustrated by the lack of any websites with news and resources for developers targeting Apple's platforms. So we decided to make one ourselves. We hope to find others out there that are thinking the same and give us some feedback on the site. With over 16 million registered developers (according to Apple), there has to be some demand for this ;-)

P.S. don't forget to check out the resources section filled with over 350 hierarchically organised links to interesting apple developer resources.

I suspect the hardest part of doing that would be simply that you don't fit into their pre-existing categories.

FWIW, if you plan to do that, I'd suggest you put a Bitcoin block hash in the NY Times instead, which would prove the timestamps of everything that's been timestamped via Bitcoin. You can then timestamp your own stuff for free via OpenTimestamps, at which point your proof goes <your data> -> OpenTimestamps -> Bitcoin -> NY Times.

Timestamps are additive security, so it makes sense to publish them wisely. But if you're going to do that, might as well strengthen the security of as much stuff as possible in one go.
It's substantially true. The pen was developed by a private company rather than the government, but "the US spent" is fair if we consider it to refer to the country as a whole. Using pencils in space did cause genuine issues, but the Russian space programme did live with those issues until the space pen was developed.

The more interesting question is why are the Japanese so miserable, 53 other countries rank over Japan despite features that some say should promote happiness. You might even say that the hypothesis that social cohesion must be upheld by deterring ethnic influences in the pursuit of happier communities can't find a worse example in Japan.
Wow Tom! Congrats on getting into the program. It was funny seeing your name on hacker news. Cheers, Shane.
Sorry, I meant that zoning is very much a form of top down planning. It's just pervasive.

There can be even more structure, but when a town or city simply blocks medium density residential structures, that's pretty top down.
Pointing out that America is just as bad would be a fair point (not whataboutism) because YC does so much business in America. So criticizing YC for dealing with a government just like America but is not America is not an invalid point. However I agree with others that China's tyranny is on a different level.

Cognitive Services may or may not usher it in, but the inevitable democratization of AI means the definition of "doing AI" will eventually be the same as "doing Excel". i.e., it is just a means to an end, and the underlying level of automation is irrelevant.
The idea is to have a single immutable data store. Immutability gives you, among other things, easier time debugging and reasoning. Having a single, global data store means that the entire state of your application can be managed centrally. There are no seemingly unimportant variables hiding anywhere that would drive your app, it's all in one place.

Paper author here, thanks for the interest :). I just wanted to elaborate on the overhead numbers you mentioned.

I am not specifically familiar with the 35%+ numbers, but you should take into account the cost of any defense on top of the cost of putting tags in pointers, because that makes all the difference.

We found in our experiments on SPEC CPU2006 that, without static analysis for optimizations, the cost of pointer tagging itself (tagging + masking) is 22% geomean, which is almost entirely due to masking on loads/stores. This is with a 64-bit masking constant (0x80000000ffffffff) which is unique to our approach and is relatively inefficient on x86. With 32-bit masking (0xffffffff constant), which is more common, the number is about 14%.

This only covers metadata management and is not useful on its own, so you need to implement some kind of defense on top of this which is usually costly. The hardware support used by HWAsan only removes masking overhead by having the (ARM) hardware ignore the upper byte of the pointer, which is a nice way to not having to pay for masking.

> Because I'm not entirely certain that we can eliminate tribalism.

It's fair to say tribalism has always been around. And from that perspective, the current tribalism, including left-wing identity politics, is extremely reactionary.

A few things are, if not new, at least notable in this case:

* These people aren't historically outsiders, they're "heartland" Americans.

* The cultural narrative hasn't caught up to the cultural reality yet. For example, if child of meth heads grows up to be president, he's yet another privileged white president, not an outsider who overcame adversity. "Multicultural" attitudes group him in with Warren Buffett.

* There's no language, even to describe white people short on privilege. There are certainly slurs, but nothing you'd put on a questionnaire.

* The general direction of American culture has been to include more and more, however slowly. This is certainly a regression in that respect. And it seems to be accompanied by an abandonment of the ideal of inclusion qua inclusion. Instead, we seem to have a list of historically disadvantaged groups, telling newly disadvantaged groups that they already had their chance. Again, this is nonsense to an unemployed daughter of opiate addicts.
IIRC, there is no Neanderthal mtDNA (transmitted exclusively from mother to daughter) present in modern humans. That could just be because it died off though.

One, this is trivially defensible against with a VPN. Two, ISPs have regional scale; Facebook and Google are international. Three, we have actual evidence of Facebook repeatedly dropping the ball and causing tangible harm on multiple continents. We don’t have the latter for ISPs nor Google (in respect of the latter, outside YouTube).

I almost added autocorrection to a translation pipeline once. Curated a subset of unambiguous safe cases to reduce the manual workload. I parked it away because I didn't see a way to reliably convey this was just lowering the number of manual corrections needed.

A bad part about user-end autocorrection is that the end user is looking only at the case they have in front, not the overall average — if they have a case where it worked very well, they'll start overly trusting it and failing at producing good results. If they have a case where it wasn't useful, they'll be annoyed by it and feel they are doing more than they should. In all cases someone is going to be unhappy.

If I can't expect all ends to understand the value I'd mostly just look for pipelines where a-c could be an internal process and there was no need for the data provider and end user to be aware that it's happening. But then, ascertaining this is a problem on its own.

This is simply not true. Many foreigners have been scammed by this, working for a Chinese startup on the promise of equity, and then being eventually told it is impossible because the government won’t allow it. See: https://www.chinalawblog.com/2016/09/the-china-stock-option-....

If you are a foreigner working for a domestic startup, you simply aren’t allowed to have equity. If the company is already listed or is a foreign company, then no problem, otherwise it simply isn’t allowed.

Windows Phone could have been that platform. Yes, it was also backed by a large company, but:

- There were multiple manufacturers.

- Despite of MS' bad reputation, the platform was surprisingly open and flexible. Not as much as Android, but certainly more than iOS.

- UI-wise, it was on par with the two big players. I would argue it was even better, at least more innovative.

Unfortunately, it failed due to devs ignoring it (especially large players), and probably MS' notorious schizophrenic behavior resulting in constant zig-zag courses.
Agreed. I am a touch typist on a regular computer. I literally hate writing on the phone. I find it an utterly odious process. So much for user friendliness from my point of view.
Note that LAPACK isn't four decades old (and probably should be superseded anyway). You perhaps won't want to use large-scale numerical libraries that are that old unless they've had a lot of development and been well parallelized.

One issue with mixed language programming that we learned decades ago is the issue of debugging that there typically is across the interface. Also general tool support. I recently asked the local Python expert about HPC-style profiling of Python calling C(++) libraries, for instance. (I couldn't make TAU work.)

> It can, but you're swimming against nature. Do you think the Japanese people would be happier if Japan was minority Japanese?

Japan - and many (most?) other countries - don't share the contingencies of America's founding. If I emigrate to Finland do I become, and am I seen by Fins as, Finnish? Not really. But a Fin moving to the U.S. can become an American and perceived by the rest of us as American.

While I’m not sure if it’s possible to turn of fb ‘last seen’ the attitude of friends using that or similar info (ie read receipts in iMessage) to jump to conclusions was precisely what I had to “train” my friends on. Personally the big reason for me is that I like to be in control of engaging in a conversation depending on what I’m doing, how I’m feeling, how much thought I have to put into it, etc. At first I made a lot of excuses (I was riding my bike and saw your message pop up but couldn’t respond, sorry!) but eventuallly just explained that my level of social media/communication engagement was just fundamentally different.

Of course I completely except that this means sometimes I miss out on something or that I can’t be the one to re-negotiate plans last minute, but overall it’s a good trade off. My close friends also know to just add a “need answer today” or “..now”. And also that I will still respond to messages that are truly of a critical time sensitive nature “car broke down! Can you pick me up?”

I do really wish most connunications apps cane with more status options (unavailable, busy, do not disturb, response may be delayed, etc) or customizable auto responses.
Yes, it would make the archive immutable, but that doesn't prevent the data from being deleted.

A very similar example is found in git repos: while normally you'd have every single bit of data that lead up to git HEAD, you can use git in "shallow" mode, which only has a subset of that data. If you delete all but the shallow checkouts, the missing data will be gone forever. The missing data is still protected from being modified by the hashing that Git does - and you're guaranteed to know that data is in fact missing - but that cryptography doesn't magically make the data actually accessible.

For me the number one trigger was caffeine, but because I'd never had that much, doctors just said it was probably stress, so I didn't eliminate it. Also because this all happened when I was a kid, I didn't have the wherewithal / knowledge to try an elimination diet. I was an anxious kid so my parents just accepted this "diagnosis" of stress as the main trigger (it definitely is one factor).
I cut out caffeine to help me sleep better (after about 14 years of migraines of varying frequency and severity), and found my baseline (monthly, moderate severity) migraines almost completely vanished. Now I only get them if my sleep or food schedule or amounts are seriously disturbed.

I believe you are confusing racism with bigotry. Here is the dictionary definition of racism:

>prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

Of course superior is an objective word, but I don't see any evidence in that quoted statement where she felt superior. Honestly sounded more like self pity, jealousy and stereotyping. "Those union people get paid way more than they deserve," "Those college kids get all the breaks." The only difference is her target were "brown and and black people."

She satisfied the first half of the definition, "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race" but I didn't see the second half, "based on the belief that one's own race is superior."

I could be wrong.

1 extra level of security? Perhaps the added cost of the system doesn't warrant it, perhaps there are better ways to mitigate.

I'm not an expert in the area and don't know the nuances as much as I'd like, like I've wondered if there's a way to have 2 keys - so in the case of blackmail, you give a different key than normal, which will work - however then there's a way to trace.

Obviously the best system is having a system of governance that is stable and accountable. The situation to perhaps design for is say tyrannical dictatorships that may rise.

I suppose the most important aspect of git would be redundancy of data, along with perhaps immutable and/or offline archives; evidence may be changed without anyone ever knowing though to check, unless perhaps there were regular (every 5 years?) consistency checks between archives and present-day/online historical data?
