It'll be 10 years or more before we can really answer that question. Trump's talks could work out exactly as planned or they could trigger a nuclear war, or anything in between. Were Obama's calls on Egypt/Libya/Tunisa/... the right ones for the sake of the long term? It's hard to say we'll ever know for sure.

It's worse than that--NK didn't "build a nuclear arsenal." They were GIVEN a nuclear arsenal. Let that sink in.

Who wanted to be nuclear armed in order to blackmail the whole world? I know it sounds like a Bond film plot, but I think we'll eventually find out how it really came to be that NK got the bomb rather abruptly and where that tech and know-how originated. It wasn't from China, either.

There are a lot of easily describable primes, like the Mersenne primes. A lot of numbers can be described in fewer bits than directly. This is not always the case, but you could just keep looking for another more easily describable prime or broaden the search space to include non-destructive modifications of the data you're representing.
It's not the job that people want. If it were, they would do it for free.

People have needs [0], money allows transacting for those needs, and a job is a vehicle to deliver money. If people could have their needs met without a job, would they still "want" the job that was automated away from them?

What's morally wrong is a society that forces its most vulnerable people to work jobs that can be done by machines, leaving those people no time to improve their skills or standing in the world, trapping them in a permanently disadvantaged social stratum.

It's just not WWI, there are minefields all over the world that still kill people that wander into them.

The only reason WW2 had more combat casualties than WWI is that the USSR decided to defend their country with a meat wall of unprepared soldiers. That generation of Russians had like an 80% casualty rate or something crazy like that. Nearly wiped out an entire generation.

I mean by that a model of computation in the TCS sense. (Some) molecules, be them DNA, RNA or other, are akin to lambda terms (or graphs), beta reduction (or other graph rewrites) are akin to chemical reactions. The algorithm of reduction has to be random, local (i.e. no higher point of view criteria for interaction are used), performed by Nature. All in all, to be able to prove that some part of the biochemistry can be seen, as a concrete asynchronous graph rewrite automaton (capable of universal computation) would be a great advance in biology.

> According to a media report, the equipment move-in will be completed by early July and the first phase of the fab will be able to start volume production of DRAM in the third quarter.

Ouch, that's an aggressive schedule. Two months to qualify the equipment and the process, train technicians, establish PM schedules, ramp up testing and QA departments, and run pilot lots? If anything at all goes wrong -- one bad mask, one misaligned robot that scratches all the wafers, one misconfigured test program -- you lose three weeks and have to start over. More if you have to revise a mask. Even more if you don't discover the problem until after burn-in. If they hit volume production in the third quarter, it's going to be at the very end of September, and it's going to be a very generous definition of "volume."

Not everyone can upgrade their RAM without switching to new hardware, and the company's probably not going to invest in that across their entire dev team just to accommodate one new internal app unless it's truly mission-critical. And heck, Mac laptops still max out at 16GB.

Most judicial systems would conclude that if for example you had extreme snuff porn on your computer, or the private personal records of another person, that there could be no legitimate procedure by which you could have obtained them. I don't think claiming that you extracted them from Pi, or 'could have done so' would be taken seriously as a defence.

I wonder if dating is one of the few arenas of human life in which tools and services to make it easier create invariably bad ethics. When you boil it all down, mating is an adversarial process dressed up as a cooperative one, making deception the order of the day. Tools and services, even with the best of intentions, wind up only serving those deceptive purposes.

In my own life, despite being an uber-introverted nerd, I've gravitated towards just the normal way of finding people I'm interested in in person and just asking them out. The advantage of this is feedback is much easier to intuit when the person you're asking out is right there in front of you.

I don't really see the point anymore in spending large amounts of time and effort to optimize a algorithmic online search pattern when daily life in a city gives one all the bandwidth one could ever need to find someone.
The DNA is changing real-time, i.e. there is a periodic process we usually call algorithm. Algorithm might imply some sort of computation going on; while it's pretty common to see computations being performed via neurons and protein interactions, seeing it directly in DNA is much more interesting. Instead of assuming genes are static, there actually could be some DNA-level computation going on, potentially invalidating significant portions of our knowledge of genetics.
In Germany we find bombs all the time from WW2. They have a specialized team for disarming these. And in the case they can't disarm they blow it up after evacuating from a certain distance.

Stack Overflow has had problems with too many comments.

This is the crazy thing. It's all very well TSB executives making positive noises about not penny-pinching and making sure customers don't lose out, but usually when banks say these kinds of things after an outage, they are talking about things like waiving their own fees or making good any resulting late payment fees or missing interest. Obviously that sort of response would be nowhere near sufficient in this case if, for example, someone gets the utilities at their home cut off for non-payment, or a business gets into trouble for not being able to file its tax returns on time, or a small trader can't work because they can't buy materials or accept payments from customers. The true financial cost of an entire bank being out of service for a week is going to be staggering.
The giant country to the north here is China, their adherence to recently tightened economic sanctions is probably a bigger factor than Trump's bluster.
What's the difference between this case and the fact the unabomber was caught because his brother and sister-in-law recognized his writings?

And then the DNA matches the brother.

South Africa didn't 'denuclearise' in the sense of giving up arms.

They had a change to a completely incompetent government who wouldn't know how to spell 'nuclear' let alone fathom the scientific research and economic and political strategy required to run such a program.

And given that nuclear scientists and competent political strategists tend to be smart, they don't hang around in swamps very long.
Yep. A prime-based compression algorithm is possible, but if you don't store the whole number, it will take forever to calculate.
How are you going to describe it? Are you going to say it's the Nth prime, so go ahead and calculate all (N-1) primes to find it? That's a lot of primes. And by that point it's not any different than sharing data with any other (sane) compression algorithms.

> Branding isn't hard; forcing a constructed brand is hard. That's the real source of friction here.

Let's agree to disagree. I've been involved in dozens of branding processes. None of them were easy, from the strategy to the creative to the execution.

If the agency did their job, the brand guide _should_ feel obvious. That's how you know it's on brand.

<rant>I find this sort of comment very condescending to designers. I'n not a designer, but I've managed them. Good design is hard. Good creative is hard. Good branding is hard. This was excellent work, and if you see "marketspeak" you need to re-evaluate what good creative work looks like.</rant>

Trump is often described as narsisstic, petty, childish, unpredictable etc.
and he seems much more likely to act based on personal emotions rather than "rational cost/benefit analysis". And then you have Bolton who seems to be hoping for a war.

These aren't the types most of us would want as our leaders, but they make extremely scary enemies when they are leading the most powerful military in the world.

Normally nothing serious will happen even if Russia or NK test their boundaries, and they know it. But now, with Trump and Bolton in charge, their casual threats can suddenly have real consequences for them.

I would be surprised if this didn't have a significant effect on how other countries decide to interact with the USA.

> I can see land is actively used for farming, which means it's probably not contamined anymore.

Given my own experience as someone who had a (lab test proven) chronic heavy metal poisoning and what my (university researcher) doctor told me, but also what I know from the history of lead until and even after it got banned from gasoline, your assumption that people (officials) care is probably unwarranted.

What cannot be seen, and what does not have any immediately recognizable and attributable effects, but on the other hand causes large costs, is usually dismissed by most people, and pointing it out is "irrational" and "fear mongering". There are people who want to go back to Chernobyl, only recently (on HN?) there was an article about young people illegally going there, claiming there is no problem. That's individuals - the incentive is even higher for officials not impacted by any negative effects, but who are impacted when they "hinder the economy with useless regulations".

> a local don't stumble upon this anymore.

A local won't notice. Not even if they themselves slowly get poisoned by small trace amounts. From experience, you cannot tell the effects of low-dose chronic heavy metal poisoning from thousands of other little problems (unless you take chelators for long periods to see if they change anything; but they themselves don't do all that much since they only work in extracellular space, but much or most of the poison is stored inside cells in chronic poisoning). Eye sight suffers? RSI symptoms? Dry eyes? Occasional muscle cramps here and there? Bowel problems? Skin issues (e.g. psoriasis, etc.)? Easily stressed? Occasionally slightly aggressive for no apparent reason? It is subtle, and every single symptom can be attributed to "age", "stress", "that's normal" ("everybody has problems"). As I said, you don't get recognizably sick in any traditional sense. In addition, even if a doctor knows about the problem and would be willing to diagnose it, it actually is impossible on an individual basis since you cannot reliably measure body burden unless you cut pieces off of organs and send them to a lab. Alternatively, one can try chelation for very long periods (6-12 months at least) and see if that helps with anything. All very impractical.

So, since it's impossible to reliably recognize (on an individual basis - it would require population statistics, large samples), nothing happens. See the lead discussions that came up after Flint, when it was in the news that there were a lot more places than Flint with lead problems. It's all out of the news again by now - guess what is going to happen with all those places.... I'd say nothing at all.

For perspective, in the German state of Bavaria there still is an active alert for radioactive wild boar caused by Chernobyl fallout, which I would think was a lot less than what happened in the trenches of WWI (scale, yes I know, one is about radioactivity, the other one about "only" heavy metals and chemical poisons): http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/a-quarter-cent...

I have a lot of sympathy for TSB's branch staff right now. Previously I'd say they had a good reputation compared to a lot of other high street banks here, but right now they're on the front line dealing with customers who are suffering due to a catastrophic failure, and in reality there is probably very little they can say or do to help. Presumably some of those customers are very angry by now and some of them won't be very polite about it, but it's not the front-line staff's fault this happened any more than it's that customer's.

Does anyone know which professions in the US that are government related that the DNA information is preserved? I would surprised if there are not positions which require it. Surely law enforcement is keeping the records on some convicts. Do they even need a warrant to obtain it?

what I am leading up to is I can easily see where it becomes a requirement for others and it might start off with police forces because of the high visibility of abuse issues. From there it is not a big leap to other high visibility groups to include military and eventually everyone gets lumped in for medical safety and such.

It isn't that we need to be scared of what 3rd party sites do, it is that we need to be ahead of the game and limit how government can gain and maintain this information
