I've been trading options for several years with some incredible luck (turned a few thousand $ into six figures in my early 20's). Granted my risk tolerance has changed quite a bit since - many would consider buying OTM calls/puts prior to earnings straight-up gambling. That said there are many fun yet effective strategies to hedge risk using these multi-leg trades (Reverse iron condor etc).
I wonder too, but I do see some possibilities:

1) The brand has value. Sure, making an empty space into a co-working space is not that hard. However, how do you market that? How do you get potential workers to know about your space, and choose to work there? If WeWork or Impact Hub are the known brands, people will search there first, and never find you.

2) They may also be exploiting information asymmetry between the high-cost and low-cost areas. If a company in NYC or SF is used to paying $50/sqft/mo ($500/mo for just 10sqft) for space alone plus utilities, etc., they may not really balk at $500/mo for the co-working space used by a remote employee. Sure, those companies know they're getting fleeced compared to regular costs in those cities, but they may also not care, as it's not worth it to economize for just a few employees, and when it gets to many, they just negotiate a bulk deal with WeWork.
I disagree with the idea that users won't see benefits - the benefit is that upgrades to a critical protocol can be rolled out more smoothly in the face of compliant middleware. This benefit will be significant for end users.

Sending messages to Congress would be very different - that's squarely outside of the purview of a browser. TLS is not.

As for Microsoft having Windows 10 insert things to support a proprietary technology, again, this is a flawed analogy - it's simply not what's happening here.

Why draw the line if we know that we haven't crossed it? You have put forth two cases that seem obviously on the other side. This case seems obviously on the 'we good' side.

Would you say A/B testing means 'users are pawns'? I really disagree with that. Again, this is all in the interest of end users who have voluntarily installed this software, at least in part because of the secure reputation.
Speaking as an ISP: Netflix traffic comes from the Netflix ASN and peering session. Their globally distributed CDN/caching/video file storage servers are not on AWS to the best of my knowledge. Netflix traffic does not come from our peering with Amazon's ASN.
What's the p-value on these? How many trials were there?

We have separate events, and we try to compare them, and use them as "evidence".

I don't think the SPE is great science, but people are very easily driven by circumstances, and it'll take a lot of time to fully unpack the dynamics and ethical consequences of that.
Most therapists do not know the root cause of mental diseases. I recently watched a docuseries about mental diseases by Dr Mark Hyman at www.brokenbrain.com where some 50 doctors explain various causes of brain diseases. It is an understatement to say that you will be shocked at the end of the docuseries. I strongly recommend watching it.
On the other hand, "In the most recent estimate, for 1993–2008, the contribution from land ice increased to 68 percent, the contribution from thermal expansion decreased to 35 percent". [1]

Something is not right. Either ice melting has been contributing 4mm/year to recent decades of sea rise, or the contribution is slightly negative (in the largest ice sheet, over Antarctica). Thermal expansion of ocean water on its own does not adequately explain it.

Correct, you are running at least two separate GraphQL APIs.

If you look at the architecture of modern tech companies they are already moving in this direction. Facebook has TAO for data access, and twitter has Strato: https://about.sourcegraph.com/graphql/graphql-at-twitter/ The purpose of these data services is to enable feature developers to focus on their feature instead of worrying about infrastructure, caching and scalability. Prisma is an open source version of that same pattern.

To the question of whether you should expose your database API to other internal services or not. This very much depends on the kind of architecture you are choosing. If you are building microservices you typically want to ensure that only the microservice owning the data can access and update it.

Facebook has a quite different approach where TAO enforces access control policies, and all services can query the same data. We'll explore how Prisma can support this pattern in the future.
Standards are different in many ways.

> They don't have any of the overheads, complexity, costs, or risks of owning the real estate.

They spend massive sums of money to build out other people's buildings and typically enter triple net leases which means they do indeed have the overhead, complexity and costs of owning real estate. Even more complex really because they have a long term lease and need to constantly keep it filled with short term tenants.

The problem occurs with fear setting when you have naturally pessimistic of cynical tendencies, because then you're just contemplating the severity of various bad outcomes. It sounds completely bonkers like some sort of backwards trick, but I've found (lessons from anxiety medication) that you shouldn't even consider bad outcomes a possibility; if a bad outcome occurs, then you deal with it. However, contemplating what bad thing may happen so you can 'be prepared' is really just wasted effort and self imposed resistance. You need to adopt a mindset of 'dumb optimism'. Granted, the meds made that much easier for me, and life was great during those periods. being off them I see my old thought patterns returning, namely dwelling on imaginary 'bad' scenarios. Its counter intuitive, but it works.
I agree, this sort of discussion is invaluable. Thanks!
Nevertheless, if you find the right one who is a fit to you, they can be an enormous help.
I wonder why do we have to rely on CPU to parallelize code. Surely compiler could do better job and CPU should just offer transistors without any smart logic. It's not backwards-compatible and I'm aware about Itanium fiasco, but I'm not compelled that it's a wrong way.

> how best to use ORM with it

GraphQL is not about the server-side - that's an implementation detail and is orthogonal to GraphQL itself. I think it's important that we don't conflate ORMs with GraphQL just because an ORM can be used to simplify the server-side implementation (take a look at Graphene [1] or Prisma [2]).

Random suggestion: outsource it. As in, outsource the decision. I'll pick one (two, three) for you.

I'm not being facetious. I don't have the indecision paralysis you do because I'm removed from the situation. So, give me a radius and a budget and let me help.

Not a scaleable solution, but hey. PM me. And if not (it may well be a terrible idea), good luck.

Edit: lol. No PM on HN. My email address is in my profile. :-)
We can't really get rid of speculative execution, but we will effectively need to get rid of the idea that you can run untrusted code in the same process as data you want to keep secure.

I was disappointed not to hear any audio from their proto-example, the 148 cylinders of Ishi's speech (in the Yahi language).

OTOH, the article did expand Ishi's story for me, if sadly, by pointing out that he was of mixed Indian blood - and so was not the last Yahi.

Maybe the most famous indian recordist was Frances Densmore, who made 2500 recordings of 'Chippewa' music. Today I searched in vain for 15 minutes to find a collection (more than a handful) of some of those recordings.

Once again, a glaring lack of appreciation for our own history. Which will probably be rewarded karmicly when our own, 'who cares' history is forgotten.

He talks about it in his book on writing. It boils down to the same advice all great authors give:

Reserve a time. For that time you do nothing but write. No internet, no phone, no people, nothing. Just you and your writing. Same time every day like clockwork. Yes, every day. Defend this time viciously.

I agree you need a bare-facts framework. But you also need to make it interesting, in part so the students will keep studying on their own.

Now that should be interesting, since history is full of so many things that human beings find fascinating. Unfortunately, the educators generally manage to make it boring.
I had to find a therapist for someone I know who was unable to do it for themselves. It's difficult; even referrals are hard because, as one therapist explained to me, therapists don't ever see each other practicing their craft and what they do is confidential.

A quick answer: First, expect to shop around; odds are against the first one being a good fit, but be patient - a good fit is out there. Ask the HR departments at your employer or at large companies; tell them your difficulty in finding a therapist and I'd expect they would be happy to help - it's free and easy for them. Their referrals may charge high rates but hopefully they've been vetted by the feedback of numerous employees (though of course those therapists might also serve HR priorities - HR may prefer one visit for medications to a year of talk therapy).

Longer answer:

I looked into it, doing research and talking to numerous therapists. Here's what I understand:

* It's the singer not the song. A widely accepted belief (I don't know how widely, but more than one professional confirmed it and I've seen research[0]) is that success depends much more on the therapist than on their technique. Also, good therapists have a variety of tools that they adapt to you. IMHO if they are selling their technique ('as seen in my seminar / published in my book!'), that's a bad sign.

* Rapport between you and the therapist is most important. If it's not there, move on. You need to feel comfortable and trust them enough that you can be completely open, even about the things you don't admit to yourself, and to not feel threatened when they say things that hit a nerve.

* Characteristics of a good therapist (leading to good rapport): 1) Empathy, 2) Positive regard (toward you), and 3) Congruence (the therapist's congruence with their own emotions)

* Characteristics of a successful patient: 1) Feel safe with the therapist; 2) Trust the therapist; 3) Ready for real change.

* Find someone with experience treating your problems. As you don't have a diagnosis, that can be tricky, but a trial session with a few therapists can give you direction.

Finally, I found this to be very helpful and showed it to a professional who said it was valid:

I think the brand surely has value, but not $30Billion worth of value. It's like a clothing line brand or something, i.e. you might trust it more, might be willing to open offices remotely there just because your familiar with it.

There is no 'asymmetry' in commercial real-estate really ... prices are well known and watched in every town. Do a little running around in any town and you get a pretty good idea very quickly.

Also, they are loosing a huge ball of money.

The BI article hints at 'dot-com bubble trouble' and I believe it for this one ... the economics look bad and it could crash.

If this goes, and say, Tesla pops ... it could be really bad because the 'crypto coin' thing is essentially a bubble of sort (by that I mean fuelled by speculation) and that could come crashing down very easily and quickly as well. There is also an AI bubble (AI is here to stay, but companies/valuations are whack) that needs a correction.

So long as the US economy stays good ... maybe all of this will hold, but some douche-bags are going to just make 'one lie too far' and things will get gummed up for a lot of otherwise good companies.
It's because they were dangling nearly 8% yields out there. As a comparison Argentina was recently successful with a 100 year bond (!) at about the same rate. This is the same Argentina that has defaulted on its bonds eight times and as recently as 2014.

It's not budgeted for it but I heard that some of the FastForward 2 program money ended up going to ORNL because NNSA needed to do some early stage verification that was prohibitively expensive for them to do on their own but trivial for Summit (since they were already getting the hardware).

Let's face it... Internet access is an essential utility similar to roadways, sewage, water, electrical, and gas.

Our municipality will likely just create a bond measure to run city-owned fiber direct to all homes and business, and put the ISP backbone operations up for bid (contingent on net neutral management).
I’m referring to the fact that if you don’t directly use the ORM models as the model being returned in the GraphQL response, and instead use a DTO, in order to not have to eagerly load everything you would have to deep inspect the GraphQL request selections to determine just how much data to load. I don’t find it quite as orthogonal as some.

If the tech bubble and real estate bubble had a baby, it's name would be WeWork. How is a company that had a net loss of $933 million and that owes $18 billion in rent even remotely worth $35 billion. I'd consider the lemonade stand on the corner to be more of a business than WeWork in the true sense of the word. What's inherently hard about what WeWork is doing? With enough money, anyone can rent out buildings, chop it up, and make it appealing to hipsters with some interior work, then over charge companies and individuals to rent out tiny spaces.
Except that countries like Russia, China et al can demand that Apple hand over those codes. Much better that Apple is not in the business of being the gatekeeper for hundreds of millions of users.
This. As an olderish tech person that was around during the dot com bubble and crash in the early '00's, I don't think this is going to end well.
It's not that they're suing directly, but getting laws passed which block municipal internet. You don't have to sue if you can write the laws. This has happened in 20+ states already.

There are lots of citations:

http://fortune.com/2016/08/10/municipal-internet/

"An appeals court on Wednesday sided with the telecom industry, and with North Carolina and Tennessee, in a major decision that upheld the ability of states to pass laws that restrict municipalities from offering broadband internet services."

And in Colorado:

And here's an argument for why they're doing it. It's all about never allowing taxes to be collected to be spent on something that benefits, well, anyone. Basically since government is inherently bad and can't do anything right, it will cost too much money and they won't work and only private companies have the "expertise" to run "an internet":

I use R at least a couple times a week. It gets the job done and I will be forever grateful for the tidyverse.

That said, R can be goddamn frustrating at times because of the way the documentation is written. It would be nice to simply be able to query about a function and get a cogent help file that explains THE BASICS of how to use the function for the most common use-case(s). Instead, the help files try to be "canonical" and front-load a bunch useless technical detail-- like that something is an "S3" object. Still haven't figured out what that really means and, I expect, that knowing something is "S3" will NEVER help me out when I am in a jam and need a little help to do something simple because I forgot some data manipulation detail.

Instead, I end up googling all the time connecting the dots all over the internet to get very simple stuffs done. At least now we have stackoverflow which, as vicious as it is, seems like Mister Rogers' Neighborhood compared to the old R mailing list.
To be fair there is not a single commercial REIT worth more than $35B [1]. WeWork is certainly large enough to own real estate, but they want to be valued like a tech company and you can't do that if you look more like a REIT.

First of all, decide if you would prefer talking with a man or a woman. Just choose what you think would make you more at ease.
Then narrow down to 3-4 names (from google, yellow pages, whatever) by taking in account that you will have to see the person regularly. So not too far from either home or office. Just pick 3-4 names of the appropriate gender in an area you could easily reach once a week during workdays.

Set up a meeting with each. Explain your problem, discuss what option you have.

After the last meeting, review which one gave you the best feeling (assuming more practical consideration - like the fees - are comparable) and pick him/her.
They sent me a W-9 to fill out. I think they might actually pay.
Some of it is undoubtedly hyperbole, but:

> Index vectors like a[1] … a[4]. All indexing in R is base-one. Note that no error is thrown if you try to access a[0]; it always returns an atomic vector of the same type but of length zero, written like numeric(0)

That's serious WTF right there.

In general a lot of the complaints revolve around the language making error handling unnecessarily difficult which is something that will drive me up the wall with a language. I'm a fairly defensive programmer and if your language is fighting me when I'm trying to do error checking I'm not going to be happy. I can kind of understand the thinking of "just write a perl script to verify/reformat your data before passing it to R", but that doesn't help me find my own errors.
Hmm, I thought most RISCy CPUs kept FP values in GP registers?
