Thanks. I had a family member on TPN, and you confirmed my impression from the docs: nutrition is hard and TPN usage is risky, especially for long-term use. It's not like the movies.

What are the biggest risks? Or can you point us toward a more comprehensive description?

That's a long way from just telling someone they're wrong—which, btw, by itself isn't that substantive in the first place. Explaining how they're wrong is much better, because then the rest of us can learn something. But presumably this is what you meant. You've posted a bunch of substantive comments that are just fine for HN, so whatever the above issue is should be easy to fix.
So wait, am I reading this right? They want to say that their holdings are audited, but want an auditing process that stops at "yes, this bank account as a $X balance" and doesn't include anything about who actually owns the account or what its liabilities are?

In fairness, I can kind of understand the bind: it seems that use-case of tethers depends on not being a legally enforceable claim to dollars, specifically so they can't legally be regulated as such (which would trigger reporting requirements, accreditation as a money transmitter, etc). But that's a double-edged sword: it also means that no (ethical) auditor will sign off on a statement saying they legally own the assets they claim to have.
The missing bit here is "...unknown is detected on the road" - if there is a tire scrap or plastic bag or anything that looks suspicious a normal human driver would slow down and give it extra attention, then try to avoid it anyway. You don't drive over / through an object unless you know that it is not harmful, and even then you try to avoid it so you don't drive over a bag... of nails.

How many plastic bags do you have crossing your streets?! Around here I doubt you'd slow down more than a couple of times per month.
Why not count daily and incrementally? No reason to wait for the last day and then have to meet a deadline, do most of the processing in advance and only need to do a small amount of work each day to update.

Hey, one of the co-maintainers of the project here. And the one that decided to use json.

I agree with you. there are other options for configuration that are much better than json (yaml, toml).

Main reason for chosing json was simplicity. This was my first project in go and I didn't want to spend much time in it either. I found an example that was using json and I saw that I didn't need any external library to decode it. I thought that was good enough, at least for now.

Will probably look into using a library that supports yaml/toml for configuration in the future.

Somewhat OT, but is the origin story of React written down completely somewhere? I often see bits and pieces like how it was originally prototyped in ML, would like to know more.
No, it would just become a meaningless decorative light if it's on all the time and customers would pay no attention at all.

It's like the misguided Prop 65 signs that are in practically every commercial building in California so instead of warning people about dangerous levels of hazardous chemicals, they get a meaningless sign in every building for hazards that are no worse than if they were walking down the street or sitting at home.
As a masochist who has been willing to put up with the ecosystem pain of Clojure & ClojureScript for the love of the language, I can corroborate that it was a PITA to try ReasonML.

By the time I was done installing ReasonML to my machine, I was done trying Reason - ML and OCaml seem great, but I have limited mental resources and they are over-invested elsewhere.

This serves to inform future technology trials, because we don't assign enough nearly credence to the cost of trialling new things when we are already operating at our mental limits. By the time I am in a sufficiently quiet spot to try your thing, I'm probably exhausted after a long day of work. So make it as self-exemplary as possible. Steve Krug nailed it in "Don't Make Me Think." (https://www.sensible.com/dmmt.html)

The difference is that essentially no one minds a guy glancing at their id and handing it back, and no one cares if your coworker happens to see you going into a bar.

That's not how traffic works at the moment. I often have pedestrians walk towards the street and I assume they will stop so I don't slow down unless they are children or similar. Almost every day I could hit pedestrians if they kept walking.

>>>But Danielle is hoping Amazon gives her a refund for her devices, which she said their representatives have been unwilling to do. She says she’s curious to find out if anyone else has experienced the same issue.

If that's true - that dumb greedy move is going to cost AMZN way more than simply giving customer refund.
In addition, it's more "liquid" too. It's easier to turn tether into pretty much any altcoin on most exchanges vs turning USD back into altcoins.

There's still a belief in some circles too that a crypto/crypto transaction isn't a taxable event, which isn't true anymore. Regardless, some either believe this or know it's not true but find it easier to tax-evade this way.
It would make total sense for Netflix to be worth more than Comcast. They provide a worthwhile service while Comcast does not. Netflix provides content, even producing some itself. Comcast does nothing but media distribution. A clever 12 year old can do global media distribution on their free time for free. And do it better than Comcast and other large corporations can. They built their empires when distribution was the hardest problem in the economy by solving that problem. Now, it's one of the most worthless problems to solve. It is right and proper that they shrink, fade, and die. If not for their stranglehold on municipal telecom infrastructure born by government favors, they would have been eliminated long ago.
In a recent discussion both Netgear Orbi and eero have come up as good options for SOHO WiFi.

You could have it work like our current republic, where only elected officials can submit pull requests to the central legislation repo.

Tumbling is plagued by a horrible tragedy of the commons problem: the more tainted your coins are, the more you want to tumble them. People who legitimately acquired their bitcoins don't need to tumble them, so chances are you are just getting other tainted coins in return.

People seem to think that coins are 'clean' after tumbling, but I think its much more likely that you'll get back more suspicious coins: superlatively, "Here's my personal-use drug bitcoin, give me coins that were earned by assassinating someone"
> Yes, I might sound biased because I am an engineer at Amazon.

> This statement is my own and unrelated to Amazon's opinion.

Just because you admit your bias doesn't dismiss you from it. Your statement and opinion could very well be influenced by your work surroundings at Amazon. While I do not doubt that Amazon does take security and privacy seriously, I find it hard to believe that they employ proper ethics (based on this and past examples such as the NYT incident).
There are several coins that have been using PoS for years without known incident. I'm not sure where this idea that PoS is unproven or insecure comes from but it appears to be FUD. The facts on the ground indicate that PoS does work and it can work securely at scale.
I always found it interesting that the Awk paradigm is also the basis for IBM's RPG language. Two very different environments coming up with basically the same elegant solution for the same problem:

1. Run zero or more setup operations.

2. Loop over the lines of a text file and process its columns into an output format.

3. Run zero or more cleanup operations at the end.
I'm pretty sure it was on the front page more often than that, probably as a link to another, secondary source. I've certainly seen it on the front page some time after 2010.

I think Kroger is the Amazon of the grocery space.

Even with several attempts, Amazon hasn't been able to change that so far. Too many grocery items are expensive/heavy to ship. I'm in Cincinnati (Kroger HQ) and Amazon is trying extra hard here with special pilots.

They are already using Instacart in the US and Ocado in the UK.

Seems like more of the usual FUD that shows up on literally every post about Kubernetes regardless of the context.
Yeah, Oregon hasn't seen a meaningful earthquake in most anyone's memory, so it isn't high on the list to prepare for one that might be coming, or not, in our lifetimes. Definitely want to avoid the area if you're averse to that risk...
Depends on what those dials actually represent (the screenshot is blurry for me). If the legal basis for the sub-processors is Legitimate Interest, then consent isn't required and the dials represent a Right to Erasure request. That would all be above-board and legit.

If the legal basis is Consent, then you are correct, it must be opt-in rather than opt-out.
And to watch all of Mr. Robot for ideas.
My understanding is that there was a confusing UI where people who intended to sell bitcoin for USD actually selected USDT by default.

And one reason they might hold them is because they can't figure out how to exchange them for USD.

I mean, I'm sure there must be some people who bought USDT when that was their intention, but there are also a bunch who bought it by accident.
To be fair, Kubernetes was a big competitor to Docker Swarm and Docker’s own Cloud, which kind of lost the battle. One has to wonder what would have happened if Google did not build Kubernetes, which heavily embraced Docker.

Sometimes it’s not all that black and white, Google seems to mainly be afraid of one competitor becoming too powerful and losing control. Android vs iPhone being another example.
No, that they claim to have low prices, but they are the most expensive of any store.

It really sounds like when this change was put into place, there were two people in the car: one monitoring the road in the driver position and a second monitoring the vehicle and systems in the passenger seat (with the screen). Once they decided to eliminate the second position and make the driver do both, they should have either let the car apply brake or, as you say, provide a loud alert.

Ah I was not the only one finding it suspicious, Thank you for your links, pretty interesting research quite far away from a real product though.

This is eerily similar to the concept of a 'cookie' seen in the Black Mirror episode, White Christmas.
(Spoiler Alert)

A cookie is a device "that is inserted under the clients head by the brain and kept there for a week, giving it time to accurately replicate the individuals consciousness. It is then removed and installed in a larger, egg shaped device which can be connected to a computer or tablet (to automate their smart house controls as if the house was knew their personal preferences moving from room to room.)"
Humans are frequently in this scenario, especially at night. For example, a reflection from a rural roadside mailbox's prism looks similar to the eyes of a deer, and shredded truck tire treads look similar to chunks of automotive bodywork debris. This doesn't invalidate your point about slowing down.

But we're asking a lot from this software (for good reasons), but humans commit similar leaps of faith of various severity on the roads daily -- failure to yield, failure to maintain following distance, assuming other drivers immediately adjacent to you will keep driving safely and carefully -- and only a small subset of these situations results in accidents. We're expecting an algorithm coded by humans to perform better than a complicated bioelectric system we barely understand.

Waymo has opted to commit to thoroughly understand its environment, which is why their cars drive in a manner that bears no resemblance to how humans actually drive. We as a society have to eventually reconcile the implications of the disconnect.

The downfall of Apple's autonomous car project
In Civ 5, There are so many things to choose from that give tiny 10% or +1 bonuses here and there. Unit promotions, religious bonuses, civics, buildings. I get bonus hunting fatigue.

At least in Civ 1, even if there was only a handful of different forms of government, they had massively different effects. I've played every Civ game except four and six.

Certain elements in the map in Civ 1 gave good bonuses.
Now everything's watered down. I feel it's a cop out way to balance something by making everything have a tiny effect.

The automation also leads to you playing by reacting to popups, which is not fun. Oh, this city state now wants this random thing. Your game totally hangs on the ability to get them on your side.

It's fun to make plans and try to follow them through. It's fun (and harrowing) to make interesting decisions. You can't do it with just such random elements. It's not fun calculating cumulative bonuses. And it's also not fun even if it's automated. Have less gameplay elements!

Civ V is a game for coupon hunters and bean counters.

If a person was a victim of a car not stopping while crossing in a crosswalk or with the light, I'd agree with you.

True, I guess you'd see the advantage most when there is a complex WHERE clause or some complex projections and aggregates. Also, looking here https://www.pgcon.org/2017/schedule/attachments/467_PGCon%20... it seems they can JIT the process for creating an index, which has some modest improvements. I imagine there are plenty of things like that that could also benefit from compilation.
Completely agree. We all have to capitulate sometimes, but rarely with new, less-used tech. I have the same feeling towards GraalVM. Sure we may use Java, React, etc because their ecosystem outweighs their maintainers but that doesn't mean we have to with lesser-adopted things. Reduced adoption is also the best, least-judging way we can send messages to high quality developers that remain at these places.
Totally agree, e.g. if Samsung hat problems with their batteries, nobody would give a hoot. Just because everyone is out to get Apple.
Google owns more like 7% or maybe 8% of Uber. They already owned a piece before the lawsuit.

That's incredible! I'm very excited to see how they do with that. It's also amazing that 1 billion dollars can be spent making a TV series today. A quick looks on Google shows that an episode of Game of Thrones (chosen because it seems like a really high budget show) costs ~$10-$15 million, so Amazon's Three Body is roughly equivalent to 6-10 seasons of GoT.

My main point was the original poster's idea was probably focusing on the wrong kind of sensor for what he wanted to do. He could still network a bunch of motion sensors.

Also, I'd dispute the idea that my proposals were less "modifiable." If only because they're far easier to implement and a couple of orders of magnitude cheaper, so it's practical to replace if more capabilities are needed.
Scenario: I want to position three separate windows so that I can see and use all of them on a single screen. When I launch the three application windows, they launch stacked on top of one another.

With window snapping, I can use keyboard shortcuts to quickly position each window and have all 3 windows be fully visible in their own distinct space, without having to remove my hands from the keyboard.

If window snapping 'doesn't provide any benefit', then there must be some alternate method that achieves what I've described above. What is this alternate method?

My 2011 MBP had been collecting dust for a year when the repairs came and I had already bought a new MBP. Afterwards nobody wanted to buy the repaired 2011 MBP. I ended up gifting that machine to a junior dev on the team.

In Mexico, Apple asked for about $1200 USD to replace the logic board on the 2011 MBP, and it made no sense to me to invest that kind of money on an old computer without knowing if Apple would start a repair program later.

I've learned my lesson. Never buy an Apple product without Apple Care. It sucks but thankfully I can afford it. I'd rather pay more than suffer Windows and I can't use Linux because I use Adobe apps.
