There's nothing about Go that makes it particularly good for containers. It actually requires some ugly hacks in C to make it handle namespaces correctly (because namespaces are configured per-thread, and Go decides to spawn new threads somewhat arbitrarily which is not visible to the program).

EDIT: TIL this is fixed in Go 1.10 which came out in February: https://golang.org/doc/go1.10#runtime

If rust continues to improve ergonomics and library support, I don't see anything stopping it from replacing C except in niche embedded systems that don't get LLVM support.

My understanding is that mosquitoes (in general, not limited to the human-biting species) aren't a critical link in any ecosystem. They are pollinators, but all mosquito-pollinated species are also pollinated by other insects; they are prey for insectivores, but aren't the primary food source for anything.

There still could be knock-on effects from removing them, but restricting it to the human-biting species might mitigate that.
> It would hold or not hold depending on the specifics, what "helping" mean in that case. I could take an extreme case and ask you if the engineers designing the computer that "helped" them cheat are also morally responsible ?

The case we are talking about is the OP, who knowingly helped people cheat. Students asked him to write their essays for them and he did so. This isn't like making a computer that someone could potentially later use to do something immoral, the OP knew in advance what would happen.
They want the big bucks for EAP registrations ($10.8-$16k depending on registrar).

Two cents...

+ What about last mile autonomous delivery?

+ You might want to have a recumbent bike rather than an ordinary, so people do not immediately see that no one is in there and you can transport stuff in it.

+ The bike shape is thin compared to four wheel options, is allowed to go in places cars aren't allowed and is easily recognized by road users.

+ Challenge will be the autonomous part just as with cars.

+ Pizza delivery... What's actually the cost to have a human doing that? Start in a region where this is really high.
Exhibit 17 does not contain any claim by Microsoft that the recovery discs were worth $20. I just re-checked it to see. They said, as is the case, that the closest item they sell is the software with the license. The court determined the license to be irrelevant (they are wrong about that of course but that changes nothing about what Microsoft claimed).

Also, no, it does not invalidate any other statement as the other statements were not about Microsofts claims about the value of the discs. Even if I was completely and totally wrong on that point, it would not have the slightest relevance to any other claim or point not based on that point. That's just not how argument works. A person can say a wrong thing and then a right thing and the wrong one doesn't invalidate the other.

Lundgren has no intention to continue the appeals process. He claims that his counsel tells him that it wouldn't be fruitful. I personally think he could win an appeal insofar as his sentencing goes, but it would not change his sentencing much at all. He certainly wouldn't be walking free after having engaged in conspiracy and trafficking in counterfeit goods. The sentence he received was already below the recommended guideline the court follows derived from the value of the counterfeited goods.
I had a friend that would fix bad PCBs that had a short in a middle layer by hooking up a car battery and burning up the short. It actually worked.
Sometimes, explicit prefetching can be a win: I found an unusual case where it significantly speeded up traversing a tree structure, because the structure luckily allowed overlapping computing which element in the child while prefetching the child

Sorry, I missed your reply. Yes, you are correct, in that case you would need to use a except, sub-query, derived table, etc.
I had a classmate like this. My high school has a graduation requirement where each senior delivers a speech to the student body on a topic of their choice. At the time of his speech, it was spring and my classmate had been accepted to Princeton on a tennis scholarship--all he had to do was sit back and coast into the Ivy League. Despite this, he plagiarized his speech. The administration found out and notified Princeton, which rescinded his acceptance. (He ended up attending the local state university.)

> You cannot simultaneously subscribe to the rule of law and autonomously execute punishment measured with your own subjective scale.

At risk of being pedantic, there exists "Stand your Ground" and "Castle Doctrine" laws in many states that allow one to autonomously execute an assailant, given certain criteria. Wouldn't hacking back be a fairly natural extension of this? Assuming there were a law permitting, it doesn't seem incompatible with rule of law.
>Feels like it's encouraging vigilantism and 'taking the law into your own hands', which is not something a well run society should be incentivising.

No, citizens acting on their own and society's behalf should always be incentivized versus infantilizing everyone into helplessness and dependence. A home intruder being summarily despatched by an armed homeowner, for example, is a far superior outcome than the homeowner suffering whatever the intruder subjects him to while hoping the "authorities" intervene on his behalf. Not to mention the improbability of any true justice being delivered via the legal system.
I hate the idea of "low-level". There is not really such a thing. You should be using a language suitable for the domain your working in.

Sadly, too many programming languages try to be the end all be all. C is language that is great for working at the system domain.

Ideally, we would have small minimalist languages for various problem domains. In reality maintaining and building high quality compilers is a lot work. Moreover, a lot of development will just pile together whatever works.

That aside, you could build a computer transistor by transistor, but it's probably more helpful to think at the logic gate level or even larger units. Heck even a transistor is just a of piece of silicon/germanium that behaves in a certain way.

So there are levels abstraction, but is an abstraction low-level? I think term probably came about to refer lower layers of abstraction that build what ever system your using. So unless your using something that nothing can be added upon. Everything, even what people would call high level can be low-level.

Heck, people call JS a high level language, but there are compilers that compile to JS. This makes a JS a lower level system that something else is built upon. This just again shows why I would say that low-level is often thrown around with connotation that is not exactly true.
Understand your pain but it’s the market that decides at the end .
You could just move somewhere mosquitoes don't thrive. Being regularly annoyed by mosquitoes is personally a distant memory, and I would not be in support of any attempt to eradicate them.

People want Facebook to stop following people, especially those signed out or without an account to begin with, around the internet in a creepy way. How hard can it be really? Is it too much to ask that some company I don't have business with doesn't spy on my web surfing habits?

The announcement also reads to me as if the "clearing" doesn't even do what people may expect it to do:

> Once we roll out this update, you'll be able to see information about the apps and websites you've interacted with, and you'll be able to clear this information from your account.

This sounds to me as if they still keep the information and just don't associate it with your account anymore.
Skating and surfing come from low class rejected roots. The dedication to the craft encourages lack of care for traditional desires like status, housing, and material possessions. The longer you stick with it, the less you identify with the general population. It creates an us vs. them mentality, where newcomers have to prove their dedication a bit. Add in the youthful demographics, getting yelled at for skating on private property, and newcomers getting in the way of waves or skatepark obstacles, and that's what you have.

> we can always go and use another app that doesn't have as many problems

What other app? What apps don't have random bugs or obviously insane behavior popping up when you least expect it?
I think the parent was referring to: homelessness on the rise, lower-income residents being forced out, the need for many service workers to transport themselves to the city because they can't afford to live here anymore, housing speculation and foreign investment leaving units empty and driving up prices, etc. All of that "changes the character of the city", IMO for the worse. One reason (of many) for these changes is obstructionist behavior toward building housing and increasing density.

At least that's what I'd be referring to if I were to make the parent's argument.

> "2. We only think it is a moral issue because it's been drilled into us since we were kids, and that we think it is not fair to those who don't cheat and devalues the value of their degree."

Perhaps GP's point was that since degrees don't actually correlate with 'you have learned x information', degrees don't inherently have value in the first place?
I get that. At least, if you're both contributing to fraud against advertisers.

But what about if tricking ad fraudsters avoided defrauding advertisers?
RaiseMe | Full Stack Engineer | San Francisco, CA | ONSITE, Full-time

RaiseMe is expanding access to higher education by reinventing how students earn scholarship dollars from colleges. Our platform allows colleges and universities to award incremental "micro-scholarships" to high school (and soon, community college) students, based on academic, testing, extracurricular, and real-world experience. We've over 250 college partners, and users in 1 of 2 high schools in the US. Many of our students earn tens-of-thousands of dollars for college. The coolest part of our platform is how it educates students about the possibility of college in the first place. Many of our users are first-generation college attendees, or minority or low-income students.

Here's a recent VICE Impact article about us:
https://impact.vice.com/en_us/article/ne3yvm/students-earned...

If you're an engineer looking to work with other smart and passionate individuals on the mission of helping all high school students achieve their college ambitions, get in touch! We are a small company, with a 14-person engineering team. We offer competitive pay, great benefits (including a dog-friendly office!), and meaningful equity stake.

Tech stack: Ruby/Rails, React/Redux frontend, MongoDB/Postgres/Redshift, with some small things in Go, Python, and Node.

I'm happy to answer any questions - email me at ben@raise.me. Our jobs listing page is here: https://www.raise.me/jobs
I'm not a doctor, but I've gone to the doctor's office with deer tick bites. According to the doctors I've asked, if you catch the tick within 24 hours of being bitten, your chances of infection are virtually nil. But I tend to go to the doctor's anyway, because Lyme is no joke.

If you go, they'll tell you to monitor the site for the characteristic rash, and be alarmed if you have any flu-like symptoms in the next couple of weeks.
Families are more important than we think today. Everyone now is an Ultra Important Individual. And that's great, but you need a home base from which to operate as an individual, and you need secure relationships. Don't have kids if you don't want kids, but find a partner and a dog, and take your partnerships seriously. Go into your serious relationships with the for-life mindset.

The next step in our little social activism pendulum is looking at custody laws for sure. Men are very much at risk here on the topic of loneliness especially.
> Turned out not to be the case.

It has turned out to be the case. Selling the combination of good content and good editorial through the internet is a successful business model. It just isn't a broadly successful business model. It only works for a few prestigious brands. Charging for print content worked for a lot more smaller and more obscure outfits like local news organizations, but on the internet, everyone competes with everyone, and those outfits can't compete with the big names. I personally think that's a bummer, but it doesn't mean that pay-for-content-and-editorial is a dead business model, it has just changed to the kind of model where a few well-known companies accumulate all the benefit.

Of course there are other successful business models too, which you and your parent have mentioned a couple of:

You can sell ads against "10000000 random sources of free news". Lots of people are doing this, but most of the profit accrues to the big advertising sellers rather than the content creators, but still, it does work. I would personally rather be one of the companies with enough clout to go the pay-for-content-and-editorial route.

There is also direct-to-customer, like lots of people do with Patreon or some people do by running their own subscription services (like Stratechery or Sam Harris). This seems like a really good model to me, but I think it's still pretty nascent and hard to make money with.

But what I've been saying in this thread is: what model is Medium going for? They have a pay-wall, so it isn't the second model (free news), but they don't seem to be doing editorial so I don't think it's the first model, and they also don't seem to be aiming at their creators building a person-to-person following, so it doesn't seem like the third model either.

I'm just not sure where they fit in, is all I'm saying.
There's definitely some truth to this. In Egypt for example, the internet shutdown backfired massively. Good thoughts, thanks for sharing.
radical--I just sent you an email!
I don't think you can relate toxic masculinity to stoicism or suppression of feelings. While there are toxic attitudes that are merely acting out some misunderstood idea of masculinity (Ex: Telling a boy with legitimate issues that he needs to get over it), much of these ideas have merit. Men suppress their feelings so that they can be a strong pillar for their families in times of trouble.

Say a leader in your family, like a father, dies. What good does it do a man to completely break down emotionally and be of no value. In an ideal scenario, a man will step up and become truly useful during this time of trouble. Somebody has to make funeral plans and deal with the logistics of the whole crisis. This is a selfless action that gives others a time to mourn and you will get your time to mourn after everyone else has collected themselves.

Additionally, while deep and dangerous feelings, such as depression, should not be suppressed, many of the things you feel don't need to be shared. Maybe you don't feel like working out, or you feel like going off on an annoying coworker. These feelings do no good for you or the people around you, or are afraid to do the things you know you should be doing, but you still feel them. It would be better to suppress them, face your fears, and do something useful. There are times to share your emotions and there are times to suppress them, and it only takes a little bit of wisdom to tell the difference.
The parent is telling me how the JVM doesn't have a compiler, which was my claim. It has a couple full-blown compilers.

which is what a CPU does with microcode.

Either you know something about current x86 CPUs that I don't or words and technical terms are, indeed, not important and have no meaning.
I think it's a bit obtuse to suggest that someone who had the luck to be born a little earlier and move into an area somehow has some sort of a natural right to keep others out through obstructionist policies, and expecting them to act with compassion is somehow selfish.

But I suppose that's par for the course for the US, where individual expression and selfishness is valued over collective good.
Surprised to see this here -- For what it's worth, I read Hacker News all the time, have posted a few articles here, and I also have skated a vert ramp (at Rye Airfield) with Nora Vasconcellos and hung out with her. She's really cool, and an amazing skateboarder. She also ducked out of the session to organize a kids contest later that day.
Joke of the day ! Thanks for making my day with the best joke I’ve heard in recent times !!!
Lyme is one thing everyone needs to be worried or cautious about. I dont know why but the media is trying to keep it under wraps. Its a hidden pandemic waiting to happen.
Why do you assume your imagined incompetent whitehats are incapable of differentiating zombie hosts from C&C and other meaningful infrastructure?
They're perfectly usable between different architectures, languages, operating systems and compilers, if precautions are taken. I did this many moons ago between big and little endian machines both in C for various Unixes and Delphi under Windows to exchange data in a network. Of course we used ntoh() and hton() functions extensively, #pragmas to adapt data alignment and similar features under Delphi.
The use of unions allowed us to use a single buffer for each packet received going to the relevant part after matching the header which described what was being sent. All worked perfectly for years on SCO/Unix, IBM AIX, Linux and Windows.
This is a good point. I had thought that my high school grades were extremely high stakes, even though they weren't. Of course, now I know how silly I was. If the stakes weren't so high, I wonder if I would have been more tempted to cheat to get more free time. I think not, but no way to know for sure because can't run that experiment anymore.

On the other hand, in countries with huge populations like China and India, it seems that cheating is rampant because the stakes are so high? Can't recall what happens in India, but in China, the university you're allowed to choose is limited based on your final gaokao (high school examination) score. That in turn also determines what you're allowed to study, and that in turn determines what kind of jobs you can get when you graduate.

Pressure exists because it all comes down to a single score. But on the other hand, because of the scale of the population, I imagine it becomes an issue of efficiency. If it didn't come down to a single score, can't imagine the monstrosity that would be the admissions process for all the top universities. For example, I hear about Canadian universities that now say they don't prioritize GPA; they'll consider extra-curricular activities and so on too. Good luck with that if your admission applications explode a hundredfold.

So like someone else commented in this thread, the many become suspected instead. One department at my alma mater decided that GRE scores were not reflective of quality of students coming from China for masters degrees. So they threw GRE out the window and decided to only look at students that came from top ten universities in China when it came to Chinese student applications.

As with most things, the issue is multi-faceted and complicated.
I hadn't thought about it like that, but there is truth to this. Even many third party online dating services (CMB for example) explicitly require Facebook accounts currently.
It isn't sufficient to know that the student is cheating. You have to be able to prove it. Students, particularly the amoral, entitled students who are inclined to cheat, will cause an enormous amount of trouble for the professor/TA who accuses them of cheating without incontrovertible proof. The professor may dock the student's grade in some way, but you can't really fail them if it's clear the essay was written by someone much smarter or more fluent than they are.
