You are not reaching - that is always one of my concerns when news like this comes in. But I am gratified to see how many comments on HN are approaching it from a perspective of increasing visibility of the mental health problems we need to solve. Hopefully that message gets out just as strongly as anything else.

Physics and thermodynamics don't actually use $ costs in their equations... e$ !== mc2

The costs you are referring to are in energy. It's entirely possible that the $ cost to put it back into the ground are cheaper than to get it out.

For those interested in learning management skills I've found https://www.manager-tools.com/ and their podcasts and resources invaluable.

Also the best book I've read so far on management is the excellent High Output Management by Andy Grove. Still incredibly relevant.

Why should we use CloudTiming over AWS Instance Scheduler?
It could still be worth it to buy a unit purely for using it as an Airbnb in London and leave it empty 275 days a year.

Just market it as a holiday rental on dates corresponding to big London-based football matches, when people traveling might often pay hugely inflated nightly rates.

Maybe supplement during academic conferences or government events. In the right part of London and for a unit with the right amenities, you probably could still turn a net profit annually just on 90 days, and leaving it empty the rest.

Which would mean it could still negatively affect housing shortage issues and home prices, and still result in poorly behaved tourists nearby for 1/4 of the time.
Almost 10 years ago, when I just started to work, I had to do a repetitive task. Something in IIS about 30-50 subdomain bindings. I told to myself “I’m not going to do that manually, such a waste of time, let’s write a script!”. 5 hours later, I was still working on this script and I was stuck. I asked some help to a senior colleague and his reply was: “you know, it would have taken you only 10 min to do it manually”. :)
Suicide isn't anymore selfish than wanting someone to continue living so I can feel better. How do you balance the pure inner torment of a suicidal person against the surmountable grief of those they left behind, multiplied by their number? There is no objective balance.

I don't blame anyone who chooses suicide. Who am I to tell them to "man up" and deal with the torment? But I think we should do everything in our power to make staying a viable option.

What I'm saying is that he's asking the questions rhetorically like this only because it was already known to be impossible to get to single payer because of Lieberman.

If the facts on the ground were that it was actually possible to get single payer passed, I think those questions would have been easily answerable. It just wasn't tactically necessary to answer them in the context of what was achievable because of one horrendous (sorry Lieberman, but you really blew it) person.

The statement was clearly entirely political, of course.

that's probably the industry where the original poster works in. If 80% of interactions are mundane and repetitive and can be done by a bot businesses will go for it to cut down on costs. The other 20% can be dealt with by a human if need be. I don't think 100% is/was the goal at all.
> I hope Airbus can continue making this model

The A380 was doomed from the start. It was built to compete with the 747, a jet which first flew in 1969 [1] and designed for hub-and-spoke "trunk" routes. In that narrow aim, the A380 succeeded. The problem is the entire A380/747 category peaked before the A380's first flight. High-efficiency engines mean long-and-skinny routes are now profitable. Instead of packing Chicago to London and D.C. to London passengers into a JFK-Heathrow megaflight, one runs Chicago-Heathrow and D.C.-Heathrow with medium jets.

At the end of the day, the A380 was designed to be impressive to European politicians more than to airline executives.

When I started my first business (out of college) I got my first big contract (that made the business and allowed me to hire real employees) by getting people (who I knew) to act like they were working in the business when the potential customer wanted to come by to 'inspect the operation'. It worked, we got the contract (over a much much larger established vendor) and kept it for many many years.
Honestly sounds terrible and distracting. I miss the dedicated client that would just be another unassuming program unless I was actively chatting. Ive moved over to messenger.com and the dedicated hangouts page because it's harder to have a conversation when so much other stuff is vying for your attention. Still frustrating that I have to remember to open tabs for a bunch of different sites.
I think he means it in a sense that you have to have one as a nation and the more powerful yours is, the less other countries can project power. Though nukes change this IMHO.
Agree! I bought that book (Cracking the Coding Interview) just to see what the fuss was about it. That thing is massive, dense, and has enough sample problems to keep a person busy for hundreds of hours...

Those hundreds of hours are way better spent building a side project...and will speak volumes more than trudging through a book to help you "hack" the technical interview.

Airbnb gambled that the rule wouldn’t really be enforced by accepting reservations past the 15th for unlicensed units, their gamble didn’t pay off, and now they’re pretending to be surprised.

Yes that’s the aggressive stance when 80% if units are at stake, but it’s Airbnb who is inconsiderate of renters here. They accepted reservations that were bound to be cancelled.

What do you think about few cameras streaming live from different points of the aircraft and the passengers having the possibility to switch between them, or between live and a geosynchronized prerecorded day or night flight with a clear sky ? Would be a perk for the middle aisle seats...
It's not for sure but highly likely that Microsoft will do some things that are not desirable. From now on, should you believe trending repos are not filtered by Microsoft? Don't you think they might put some advertisement for their own projects / products? What will they do with the massive amount of data they have now access to, including private repositories?

Those saying there is no reason to worry are just hoping for big amount of luck. Yeah I hope so too, but let's face it, it's very unlikely they're not gonna do anything undesirable and only improve the platform.
I'm the creator of a Slack bot (Pull Reminders). I ended up building a web UI to configure the bot rather than using slash commands. The main reason for this was that Slack's platform is still evolving and I thought it'd be difficult to build an intuitive experience/interface within Slack. I've seen other Slack apps do a pretty good job at this though. Check out Eventbot or GitHub's official Slack app.

It's been fun figuring out how to tackle UX problems like onboarding and engagement with Slack as the primary channel (versus email). I think chat is replacing email for many teams and so there's a big opportunity to rethink traditional workflows with a "chat first" user experience.
Yes I have. I’ll vote for politicians who support rational substance controls. But I can’t go near that stuff until it’s legal.

Yet another tech that nobody wants. They are the next worst thing after the "allow notifications" pop-up that every landing page seems to be infested with these days.
What I really hate about articles like this is they try to convince people we are just rolling in money and job opportunities just staring at our screens and use that to flood the market with people who don't care about anything but the money and use them to lower salaries for the rest of us. I don't seem to come across nearly as much articles like this for nurses, paralegals, chefs and other such professions that pay as well and might be far more rewarding for certain types of people and the jobs are probably easier to get, based on the number of bootcamps and job hunting services solely for computer science professionals.
The technology could also be useful for having a virtual window in tunnels, to make the experience a bit less claustrophobic. Particularly for something like a hyperloop carriage when there might not be room to move about.

It's two clicks if you have your wits about you, maybe a few more if its not that obvious.

I don't know why you singled out Windows. It's just as easy in Gnome or KDE etc - the point here is that CLIs can never be as intuitive as GUIs. As the original article said - Humans are very visual people. Seeing things in a visual space is much easier for us.

>Early copies of a new plane tend to be less efficient and Singapore Airlines recently ordered some new A380s. However, overall demand is thinner than Airbus expected, forcing it to slow production to a trickle while looking for more business.

Boeing had sales difficulties with 787 aircraft early in the production run due to excess weight among other issues. [0] The rest of the article makes it seem this does not apply to the A380s in question, so it's more a reflection of weak market demand. The problem of reselling customized planes is an interesting issue--so far as I know Boeing 747s did not have the problem. This seems unique to the A380.

I like the idea though I probably wouldn't use it myself. I don't typically do the same route the exact same way day after day. Because of that, seeing a ghost on the map wouldn't be useful. I also am not looking at the map when I'm running/biking. One feature I would use is based on distance/time rather than position. So if I run a 10 minute mile yesterday and I run a 10:24 minute mile today, I would like to know that I was 24 seconds slower today.

i wouldn't be surprised that , in certain cases , being an average coder but having another skill: knowing how to work well with people, political capital in your company, enough domain knowledge, being hard working, choosing to work in a more stable org or the public sector, may be a good enough barrier to competition.
They just charge for a license fee for Android and then credit back if they include their services.

Google has made it so people that can't afford to get an iPhone so they can get a smartphone.

They have helped make it so smartphone technology is not only for the rich.

Almost 2 billion Android devices are sold a year so does not take a couple of bucks for it to end up being a ton of money. Pretty much all going to the bottom line.

Either way people will still use Google services.

MS owns desktop yet most use Google search and not Bing.

Even browsers which is a hassle as you have to down load Chrome but still most use Chrome which has about 12x the market share of Edge.

"Firefox dropped below the 10% share value on Netmarketshare"

Google has over 5x of iE.

In the end it is just the Google offerings are better.

It seems like they just got the metadata. Signal has been minimizing the amount of data it collects, but I think someone like the FBI could still intercept metadata in transit. Moxie has talked before about how difficult it is to anonymize metadata.:

It doesn't help that Signal still doesn't support emails as usernames, but just phone numbers, though.

The obituary I wrote on Facebook when I found out...

"'Fuck you,' he says. 'You don't even cook. You're not one of us anymore.' Far from being offended (although I am hurt), I want to give him a big hug. Another drink or two and I just might.

I don't cook. I'm not a chef. The chefs and cooks who are better than I used to be - better than I ever was - know this and don't need to say it. They certainly don't need to say it to my face, like this kid, pressing me up against the bar now with the force of his rage and hurt. He will channel those feelings, appropriately, into a demand that I do a shot of tequila with him. Or two.

Which is a relatively friendly and diplomatic solution to an awkward situation."

- Anthony Bourdain, "Medium Raw" (I opened to a random page)

Another great artist lost to suicide. Anthony Bourdain reinvented food writing with his book "Kitchen Confidential", injecting a brutal honesty and punk rock ethos into the stuffy world of restaurant reviews and travelogues. He continued writing with more terrific work like "Medium Raw" and "Nasty Bits". It's not just that his writing was full of practical advice for diners (never eat fish on mondays, never eat mussels, bread is recycled, etc)... it's that he was brutally honest about himself, about his struggles with depression and drug addiction. If you read his books, his suicide should come as no surprise.

He went on to reinvent food television with "No Reservations", a travelogue show that celebrated highbrow and lowbrow in equal measure, that put third world street food vendors in the same breath with Michelin-starred chefs, that ate the weird stuff not because it was weird, but because it was a new experience. From there, he went to "Parts Unknown" on CNN, elevating his work's already broad international beat to a more explicitly political level, visiting little-known and often dangerous places such as Libya and Myanmar, celebrating the joy and creativity people took in their food, even in the poorest, most oppressed places on Earth. He was a cultural ambassador for all of humanity, the likes of which had never been seen before.

And then there was that time that !Kung bushmen in Namibia punked him into eating a warthog's asshole by convincing him that it was their finest and most exclusive culinary delicacy. And then laughed their asses off at him. And he ran that on tv.

I'm going to miss him so much.
The only reason Airbus is continuing is because of the large order from Emirates, and who knows what they hell they think they can do with over 100 A380s and 50+ more on order.
Because purchasing a home is a rare event and closing is scary to most people. Miles of documentation to sign, things that buyers and sellers aren't familiar with.

Essentially it's just ignorance. I built and sold homes with my family for a decade, we had a simple 2 page purchase agreement with a reasonable amount for earnest money (small for spec homes, 20%+ for customs).

Most the paperwork and nonsense is from the buyer's mortgage company.

You don't need a real estate agent for any of this. People just don't know it yet. When someone brought their own agent, my best price always went up by their 3% as well. I never understood how people would find our homes, then have an agent bring them in. I guess you don't mind paying 9-15k for literally nothing.

I always explained my best price too (asking if they were being represented). Here's my price w/o agent, here's price +3% with agent. Had a couple of people try to get the non agent price after we'd negotiated. Never folded once on that fee, just like closing isn't my expense, it's yours and your bank's ripoff. (Notice they transfer mortgages for a few hundred between themselves after you close, the real cost.)
I'm going to have to try this, but I suspect such writing won't work on Windows, which aggressively locks executables. Maybe it just locks the in-use range and allows appending.

On Linux this probably works fine because writing past the executable part of the file does not change any offsets beforehand.

(On NFS systems you can definitely overwrite in-use executables at any point, which works until the relevant bit gets paged out then back in)

Reading, on the other hand, ought to work fine everywhere. This continues "SQLite is a replacement for fopen()" - you can use it in similar cases to self-extracting ZIP files or self-executing JAR files.
I'm surprised how most chatbots focus on a 1:1 interaction with the user and the bot. I find chatbots most productive and novel when you allow the one bot to interact with a group of users. For example, deploy bots, where each user can have the bot deploy as well as they can see the chat history to get context on what has been deployed.
How about audible nags? How about flashing white lights on the display? How about gradually slowing the car down until you give tactical feedback proving you are in control? Tesla does a lot of things to coerce drivers to pay attention. If you check out TMC, you'll see lots of people complaining about how paternalistic and "naggy" the system is, even for those who use it properly.

I am continually surprised by how little emphasis there is on personal responsibility when this community discusses an L2 system such as Autopilot. According to both the law and the operating manual, the driver is in control at all times. Tesla warns you of this every time you turn it on. Yes, there are enough bad drivers out there that Tesla is wise to implement habit-forming nags; but drivers also need to take responsibility for how they use (and abuse) these systems. Nobody would pass the buck to cruise control for a driver who set it to 65 and then plowed into something in a moment of distraction. All due respect to the victim here -- and I feel absolutely terrible for him and his family -- but if you are paying attention and looking at the road ahead of you, there is no situation where you accelerate for three full seconds into a concrete barrier at 70MPH -- not with Autopilot, and not without it.
Side point, what does `qv` mean at the start of your comment? I can't find anything with 30 seconds of Googling.
I agree with proper confirmation and 2FA requirements. But the really bad UX is that it's OPT-OUT instead of OPT-IN. If you're going to force users into your system and insist on opt-out then you should at least have the decency to make the opt-out process as convenient and painless as possible.
Not to dogpile, but it's essentially a naive take on the Ford vs. Dodge case. It's usually trotted out as "proof" of the evils of capitalism. As such it ignores nearly 100 years of evidence to the contrary.
