I thought I would hate the TouchBar. But after two days of using it, I like it. I have been using Pro version for about 3 months and I still love the TouchBar.

I don’t know how to explain this, but I just no longer feels the need to press an esc key, and no more tapping for adjusting volume/brightness. I can also adjust font size or color in Words using the touchbar. My I can choose an emjoi in hipchat client using touchbar application. It feels great.

This, I don’t know, really weird. I might have to try it, but I doubt I will like it at all. The whole purpose seems like a secondry screen to me. Constantly having to look down instead of looking at the bigger screen so you can control is so backward to me.
You seem to be saying that atheists can't do good. If you want secular folk to be more appreciative of your religion, you should be a lot more careful about expressing such bigoted sentiments about us.

> An atheist doesn't need to be saved, so there's no path to worry about.

There are many straight and narrow paths which exclude the supernatural as motivation.

Spirituality and deep-seated moral compasses are not the exclusive domain of theists. Some of the most spiritual people I know are atheists. All of the least spiritual people I know are rabid Christians. Both facts are certainly a result of my particular circumstances and aren't meant to generalize to either group.

> On the contrary, it's really pointless to try hard to be a good person if getting to heaven is the concern.

Many seminary lectures have been filled by the intellectual quagmires that grow out of "let grace abound".

> I don't know who teaches this stuff people have in their heads

IME growing up in the church, mostly American Protestants. And I don't only mean that in a coy way. Many American Protestant churches do not require their clergy attend seminary. The result is predictable -- some excellent diamonds in the rough giving competent sermons, surrounded by a whole bunch of crazy rants vaguely grounded in some words that do indeed come from the bible.
Should we call them “Reset event”?
A possible name for the pending radical simplifications of a bunch of economies. Software libraries reset to 1/100 of the surface area. (webpack -> ??) Banks reset to 1/100 of the revenue. (Coinbase vs Citibank) Etc. People use the word "singularity" but I wonder if a better word for this is a "reset event".

Other examples: preppers, various religious end-of-days types, the Trump people... all talking about some kind of reset event.
Your question makes me think of how some airplanes refuel in flight, which blows my mind.
It's not. "2k" is pronounced "two thousand". "2k18" is "two thousand eighteen".

My #1 advice for being a healthy developer is to observe a regular hard cardio workout.

<back story>
When I was 16 I was a fairly muscle bound half geek / half athlete. To give you an idea, I was a running back on my high school football team, and a tackle and two linemen and I would have to shampoo one anothers head's after weight lifting practice because our arms could not reach the top of our heads from being so buff. We were muscle bound jocks in Iowa, what can I say...

Well, I had a bad tackle when running with the ball during a game, and I crushed 3 vertebra, doubling over backwards with my hips pushed backwards till they touched my shoulders. The stadium had a collective gasp and then silence as I was seen on the field broken. Long story short, bolts in my temples and hanging vertically for 6 weeks healed my young spine with only weather changing aches. However, I went from 230 lbs to 130 lbs, and it took another 6 weeks of therapy before I could walk.

That was the start of a decade of no athletic activity and nihilistic punk rockerism mixed with quite the intellectual journey as I left Iowa and became a part of the Harvard/MIT/BU 3D graphics research community. (This was the early-mid 1980's)

It was not until I was 30 that my then girlfriend, now wife, got me to start morning walks, then light jogs, and finally an actual return to an athletic lifestyle. To give you an idea, at 30 I could not jog a block without heavy panting and sweats. After a year I was able to jog 1 block. It took whole year to do a block without dying! During that year, I'd get delirious and throw up if I pushed. But the persistent and incredible patience of my girlfriend slowly got me back into what is considered "normal" shape.

Once I'd refreshed my previously athletic muscle / body memory, all kinds of positives kicked in like a general optimism, a general active energy level, and greater interest in everything in general.

However, this was tempered with realization that if I slacked for even a few days, I'd get depressed, and if I went a week I'd start having bone/joint chiropractic misalignment and then I'd be injured and unable to be active at all.

So, now I have a strict 3 days (at least) per week hard cardio. I ride my bike about 8 miles, living near a bike path in the San Fernando Valley. Plus I have a yoga mat next to my standing desk. I need to get a newer computer, as a recompile of my work take 10-12 minutes. But I exploit that time working out, so maybe I don't want a new development computer...
Obtaining the correct categorization of something is not social engineering, it's returning a FACTUAL answer. I didn't ask the AI "are men more likely to be doctors" I asked "what is a doctor" Do you understand the difference? I don't expect it to tell me "Doctors are male individuals who...." No where in my original post did I say the AI has to lie about gender ratios, I would expect any AI to tell me also, the socio-historical-cultural perspective of the medical profession, and how it has changed over time. I am simply not interested in a neat little, static, steady state view of something that conveniently leaves out context. Do conservatives want to exist in a bubble where no criticism of the status quo is seen?

If a machine learning algorithm learned a bad definition of conservative, that cast them as crypto-racists, you'd want it corrected wouldn't you? Even if a reading of conservative news sites comment forums gives you exactly that impression is likely true?

> "Quite why this outcome is better than the existing status quo is never explained with any rigour - it's ideology."

Right, progressives are the only ones with ideology, conservative positions are arrived at by cold, hard logic?

Tell me why an African American slave boy, growing up in the 1800s, who learns the existing status quo that black people are property, and white people or not, is a worse outcome? Clearly, it's a better outcome for white people of the era, so any explanation for why it might be preferable to alter it has to argue that the status quo wasn't good for black people, or that it wasn't good for white people for some presumably economic reason.

Maybe just maybe, the status quo isn't good for women? Maybe it would be good to ask them if it's ideology, or if changing cultural attitudes about what women are allowed to do, and capable of doing over the last 200 years has been a positive change in the status quo for them?

BTW, Conservatives don't reject social engineering, they just reject social engineering they disapprove of. Social conservatives around the world, in concert with religion, have sought to engineer human behavior with appeal to cultural and religious piety, and in many cases, winning laws that enforce such behavior. We've had anti-sodomy laws, anti-booze laws, anti-miscegenation laws, all of them enacted by social conservatism. And what do you call religious proselytizing, if not social engineering? Trying to spread memes and infect and convert more people into a new way of thinking.

Sometimes I feel that conservatives are against secular, humanist 'social engineering' the way Scientologists are against Psychotherapy, because it's competing in the same meme space.

Society is a dynamic equilibrium. It is constantly evolving, sometimes it evolves purely organically, in a spontaneous order, and sometimes there are clusters and movements that boil over, and change arrives by deliberate persuasion.

Google is a global, transnational company, that serves the entire world, 7+ billion people. It needs to reflect that diversity. And like I said, it absolutely cannot have AI that does stupid stuff like learn that black faces are gorillas.

Thanks for this. I've been pondering whether the word-processing/QuickBooks strategy is a Nash equilibrium (at least from my admittedly shallow understanding of the term). So lots of people produce documents using Word or LibreOffice - so that's their strategy. Some group of people produce documents using LaTeX. I'm not sure that I see how this is a Nash equilibrium. The LaTeX people in some situations might gain an advantage by switching to the Word strategy for better interoperability. The Word people (in almost all situations) could gain an advantage by switching to the LaTeX strategy for the sake of using a sane paradigm.

Rather the word-processing situation (and likely the QuickBooks situation, though I know much less about accounting software) seems to be something like maximizing the lowering of perceived entry cost (in terms of learning to use the software) over all other factors (with resulting increasing in complexity for more advanced functions and poor flexibility).
Blocking all third party code (and most first party code) from creating executable pages is a pretty strong security decision, but yes it has political ramifications.

No engines have an internal combustion engine connected directly to the wheels. You can't get anywhere near enough torque. Steam engines have incredible torque. What you're describing is a diesel-electric and is essentially synonymous with saying diesel engine on the railway.

There are also electro-diesels which can shut off their diesel engine and take electricity directly from an overhead line or third rail by raising a pantograph or lowering a boot. This used to happen at Faringdon in London (maybe still does).
Wow. For $3.39 right now. Done deal. This is some serious nostalgia here.
You know, I must say as a European driving in America I've done this on occasion. Combined with drivers not letting you in, it's tempting to follow the gore sections into the (barely visible) barrier. I mean, I slow down when that happens, but otherwise I seem to react pretty much the same as this Tesla car. Why can't the "gore" sections be marked like this ?

1) https://goo.gl/maps/iWEcY7hU4DJ2

2) https://www.google.com/maps/@52.3314532,4.799684,3a,60y,221....

Differences:

a) Clearly different road markings between the gore section and normal lanes

b) BIG brightly colored and lit sign above the barrier

c) the barrier itself has a shock absorber/deflection thing like 10 meters in front of the concrete
That's fascinating, it's kind of a collectivizing of the responsibility for safety.
It's a podcast interview with an author - how is that an "advertisement"? Interviewing an author about his book in a culture magazine is a legitimate journalistic exercise, and it is expected that his research and publications will be heavily mentioned in such an interview.

Carreyou workes for WSJ, Vanity Fair is owned by Conde Nast, and his book is published by Double Day.

I don't see where you see some kind of implied promotional exercise, given all of these corporate entities have distinct, non-overlapping ownership.
Until much more recently than I care to admit I'd never experienced an TrackPoint, and was (consequently) of the opinion that laptops were nearly unusable without a table and external mouse. TrackPoints make laptops actually usable (for me, at least).

I see no problem with adjusting requirements, so long as standards remain high and it is fair and equally applied, to better suit the pool of people being taught. I think the more interesting takeaway is that it didn't actually work. The idea that women underperform in STEM exams because of how the tests were administered proved wrong.
It's a hook to the article, the article covers the podcast interview - and the hook is hearing that Holmes is looking for new VC funds.

That's interesting in as much as it reveals her shamelessness, I don't see on what basis you call that "bad writing".

Secondly, article titles are not always chosen by the column author, but by the editorial team - if you don't like an article title - you are sometimes more exact to call it bad editorial.
Most, if not all, high speed trains operate as "train sets". They don't split arbitrarily. Some like ICE use smaller sets that can join. Others, like Eurostar, are fixed.

> I claimed the feature they call "Autopilot" is unsafe because it has only limited capability (as per Tesla's documentation).

In citing their documentation, you acknowledge that there communication is enough to deduce the limits of their technology. In claiming that there is not enough data to make declarations about safety, you disavow the validity of your own proclamation of (a lack of) safety. In doing so, you've refuted many of the premises of your own argument.

> But the naming of the feature and its marketing inspires false confidence in the drivers, leading to accidents.

How is this different from any other name? Every word concept pair starts out without the word and the concept linked together. For example, the name given to our species is 'homo sapien' which means roughly 'wise human being'. But humans aren't always wise. So why isn't the person who coined the term 'homo sapien' blatantly evil for coining the term?

> If they are not really interested in the "long term", then their actions cease to be part of "what allows [the] long term to exist".

Maybe we're talking past each other but this is... an absurd idea. And wrong. So very wrong.

If someone wakes up in the morning and they say they got up because they wanted to see the face of their loved one, but really they got up because they wanted to pee, they still got up out of bed. The existence of imperfectly stated motivations doesn't cause a cessation of causal history.
My understanding is that TCP is also partially user-space, but with some kernel management (such as communicating the closing the TCP connections when processes terminate)
Wow, you have to manually activate such an option? On windows it's default.

One of the things i love about windows is that it's always been designed for keyboard only use, not just bolted on as an afterthought. Every dialog, widget, application and feature can be used with only the keyboard and it's fast, easy and predictable how to. Unfortunately since windows 8 there's been some regressions in this area with the new metro interface. Defaulting the underlined hotkey to off (since windows xp), was also a big mistake imo.
I vote for Ok on the left (even though I have used macs for years) because Ok is the "normal," typical action. "Cancel" is only done when you've basically made a mistake by opening the dialog box. Since we read from left to right, someone working quickly will only have to read the first one to do the action without breaking their flow. If you are hitting cancel, your flow was already broken when you opened the dialog box.
One of the options should be "Continue your ride" or "Return to your ride". The second one should be "Cancel ride".

Or you use the default back button of your OS (top left in ios/windows or hardkey on android) and only provide the "cancel ride" button to move forward.
I've recently started playing with i3. It is very nice. I don't know how to do a lot of things. I have to Google how to connect to a new WiFi connection every time on my phone. However, I like it a lot. Worst case scenario, I have to reboot and log in with gnome.

Personally, I am all for standardization and homogeneity. We need standards and homogeneity. I would gladly steamroll over all the people who oppose "monoculture" for the sake of opposing something.

Glancing at screenshots of tortoisehg[0], I can't fathom considering that more newbie friendly than a GitHub Deskop-type interface. (Though FWIW, GitHub Desktop is surely far more limited, it's less sophisticated in general, and won't meet all needs.) There are plenty of other Git UIs out there as well, of course.

As wolco said, you're surely missing out on network effect, people won't find your project if they're just searching GitHub (as many people, unfortunately, do lean towards).

I would ask your users though, rather than HN. HN is going to trend towards what's popular in general, rather than what your users like to work with. Find out how your users would feel about Git or a Git-based software solution, maybe mirror your project somewhere, be it GitHub or GitLab and let people test out what it'd be like to work from the Git side of things.

Hoping to get new contributors is great, but make sure your existing contributors are on board, or even enthusiastic, before you look for a migration.

"Rent" in the colloquial sense of payments pursuant to a residential lease is a different meaning from "rent" in the economics sense of the word. The use of this word falls into the trap of many words with differing colloquial and technical meanings. I don't see how abandoning a word's technical definition because of a competing colloquial definition helps anyone.
While I certainly agree that there are lots of reasons not to use a CDN, Netlify is pretty cool and useful for certain purposes. I've started using them for a 'static' blog via Hugo and someone (not me) figured out a clever way of having comments powered by Webmentions which relies on Netlify's API to trigger rebuilds (it's nice because it results in the ability to have a Javascript-free site without paying money for some comment-service or having to have my own server to host comments on; it can be done just with a free Gitlab/Github account).

Modern passenger trains have motors spread throughout the entire train. It allows them to accelerate better than is possible with a dedicated power car. This is because multiple wheels have more contact with the track. Modern diesel trains have multiple smaller generators spread throughout the train rather than dedicated power cars. Both these approaches give better modularity as the power availabile scales with the length of a train.

The efficiency gain in splitting trains is mostly related to reducing the number of drivers needed. It also reduces the demand on track and platforms that may be congested. Both these things could be solved through better automation. Have the train driven by a computer and automate signalling to allow trains to run closer together.
