I am talking about why we got off the gold standard though.
Maybe so, but did you read the article? This is a person who the Government decided to do a forfeiture after a conviction. I'm glad the SCOTUS is looking at this because it seems to be adding additional penalties after a conviction. However, in the past additional penalties implemented after a conviction (like sex offender registries) have been upheld.

Why don't you run your test suite with dynamic linking, then? I've certainly worked at large, successful companies with enormous C++ codebases where unoptimized tests are run with dynamic linking and production binaries optimized, stripped, and linked statically.
Yes you can. There's a basic level of competence in dealing with context around a request. Any decent developer or PM would know what a JSON API is supposed to be.
You can still run an analog design through simulation, and feed the results of simulation into a layout algorithm.
Just picture how your wrists need to hold your hands so that fingers extend straight up from the home row. Unless your rib cage is infinitely thin, or your arms infinitely long, your arms are going to come together on that keyboard at angles that diverge strongly from the line between your solarplexus and the center of your monitor(s). Your wrists have to twist your hands enough to make your fingers point parallel to that imaginary line.

There is AT LEAST one very good reason that ortholinear keyboards have not taken off, and I've just described it.

I guess science has always been this contemptuous of both its ancestors and the religious.

> The Buddhist finds his answer in a toleration for what he may neither understand nor alter.

Huh? There is a rich spectrum of buddhist philosophy (Theravada, Mahayana, Zen, Tibetan) and all profess to demonstrate the ways of perceiving and understanding truth and pre-conceptual reality of this world. Straw man here?

> When we try to conceive of the state of mind of primitive man, the first thing that occurs to us is the bewilderment and terror he must have felt in the presence of the powers of nature.

Have a physicist and a "primitive man" face the powers of nature and see who's more comfortable with their surroundings.
Thanks for the tip, I will.
Ask HN: How do you take notes at work?
I recently got into the habit of writing down what I've done at work each day, but found after a few months of daily journaling there are lots of days that I never revisit. I try to keep track of important links and learnings, and started making some bespoke pages like "How do I .... [insert action here?", which proved useful, but figured I'd ask here what types of things they found useful to write down. I know some people prioritize their to-dos at the top of each journal page. I tried writing down what I learned each day and that was useful for a while.

Interested to hear what people have to say. Thanks!

P.S. I use OneNote for this but since it's mostly text theoretically I could use anything

Nope. August smart locks and Hue smart lights will continue accepting Bluetooth commands from previously-authorized clients while in offline mode.

There are only two viable choices:

1) Logout and/or factory reset all devices.
2) Delete the online accounts associated with all devices.

I recommend both, as otherwise there are edge cases where unsafety could remain.

Disclaimer: I did #2 when I left a long-term partner (along with a complete list of all credentials that needed to be rotated or disabled), both to be able to provide her absolute certainty that I could not somehow spy on her consummating her affair, and to ensure that I could not be placed into legal jeopardy by either of them as punishment for knowing that he existed at all. There is a serious legal risk if you retain access after moveout. Do not permit that risk to impact you.
In what is nearly an internet first, most of my re-responses are of the "sorry, I was actually closer to your position and mis-stated mine" variety:

> It's hard to say therefore that the two are necessarily correlated because we should see academic success tied with decreasing rates of poverty. [..but we don't]

No factual disagreement here. I think that the cases in which it does trade off are important--but not because I think we (the US, if you're a citizen) as a society should double down on education as the sole/primary solution to poverty, but simply because these dynamics are important to understand. As you imply, there are many other things also needed to address poverty as a social concern.

> Saying it's politicized would be objectively and statistically incorrect.

That's not what I meant. I didn't mean to suggest your claim was suspect because it's a politicized area, just that discussions about the implications of claims here need to be undertaken carefully given the chargedness of the subject. You are not an exemplar of that polemic.

> If you are born in poverty, the chances of you rising up the rungs are not very high.

In general, I agree.

> People escape out of poverty due to a lucky alignment of circumstances

"Lucky" does not explain the trends described in TFA. Explanation follows.

> The author directly cites a study which states that tiger parenting has the opposite result on average.

Correct. The cited study does not find a conclusive advantage in the "tiger" parenting style (and finds several potential disadvantages). However, my original claim was narrow: that this parenting style appears, given the other claims of the article to be practicable and effective in the face of extreme poverty. My question was not about the choice between "tiger" parenting and other styles in general; rather, it was
about why it (according to TFA) is (practiced|able to be practiced|effectively practiced) by people in impoverished situations that, as you say, are usually correlated with "poverty as multigenerational sentence, caveat luck".

I have no speculations on why that difference exists, though it's fascinating--and, I suspect, important to some aspects of social progress. If there is research suggesting that there is not such a correlation, I'd be interested in that as well. Let's just be clear: this is about parenting/upbringing strategies that, in contrast to the norm, counteract or appear to counteract the effects of severe socioeconomic disadvantage, not such strategies on balance in other situations.

Adobe set to join rush of foreign giants opening AI labs in Canada
The entire argument happened in front of the larger team. The manager did not pull me aside to have the heated conversation. Many people witnessed it.

I talked to several of them about it afterwards. I asked if they felt that I was being threatening at all. All of them said they understood what I was going through, that it was clear I was extremely stressed and was flipping out. Each of the people I asked said they did not believe I had any intent to kill my coworker, or even that I said it as any sort of threat. In context it was heard as me simply losing control after saying I couldn't handle it and had to leave immediately.

Note that this is the only time in my career I ever actually asked to leave because I couldn't handle a situation. I only even asked because I was very worried I would be fired if I walked out on my own. I have walked out when necessary at others jobs and there was no issue, but that is not the way Amazon is. At least it was not that way on my team.

Typically if an argument at work appears, I would just continue hashing it out till its done and go back to work. This situation was unusual.

Why do humans spend time studying ants? Atoms? To further our understanding of the world. Seems illogical to think there isn't a civilization out there that wouldn't expand and explore other places.

Just seems unlikely that we assume, because the universe is so big, there are advanced civilizations out there - but not ones that can find us, not ones that we can find, for various reasons discussed in these threads.

If our understanding of the universe is true to a certain point, civilizations are far more likely to be essentially alone and "special" than many might think.
Dont. Excessive free cash is very typically seized.
By my limited understanding, I believe that they could, as there is no limit akin to maximum fines with regards to civil forfeiture - as in this case, where the maximum of $10k was circumvented. Moreover, it does not require proof of guilt or a conviction, ripening its possibility for abuse.

The recording hub idea is really interesting.

I appreciate the constructive idea about what device makers could actually do to help, rather than just bringing our hands. If you have any others, I'd be interested to hear what you think would help.

Though now that I think about it a bit more, it treads a fine line between being a back door for monitoring activity, though maybe you could log something super limited like when an account initiated a remote action, without recording anything about what the action was.

10 years ago, maybe. Paypal evolved into a full-service payments processor since.

(By "full-service", I am not saying good service; just that they offer a broad spectrum of services now.)

One irony is that eBay was originally very hostile to Paypal as they tried to get traction for their own Billpoint system. They even killed listings for having Paypal payment buttons in them.

Fast forward a few years... eBay becomes so protective of Paypal's de facto monopoly, they made it a policy violation to even mention accepting cash in a listing. (!)
To see the following in the first page of the article already turns me off reading any more

"To get an impression of primitive man's approach to the physical universe ..."

The underlying assumption that cultures from 2000 years or more ago are primitive belies the facts that we are unable to do things that they did on a regular basis in various engineering capacities.

Just consider that they built structures that still exist today when we have difficulty building structures that last beyond 50 years before they have to be torn down due to failures in the materials.
Into the Wild with Kanye West
That is not a correct summary of the cases. Here is the final paragraph from the majority opinion in McDonald:

"In Heller, we held that the Second Amendment protects the right to possess a handgun in the home for the purpose of self-defense. Unless considerations of stare decisis counsel otherwise, a provision of the Bill of Rights that protects a right that is fundamental from an American perspective applies equally to the Federal Government and the States.... We therefore hold that the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment incorporates the Second Amendment right recognized in Heller. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings. It is so ordered."
The author says you can't explain anything really new, and people have to experience it for themselves. I had an experience like the author talks about when I first "got" the web.

I had read lots of stories about it, and a lot of people were excited by it, but I didn't really see its value. Then I went to a web demo day the local NPR station held in hall with a bunch of computers.

I wandered around looking techy things I didn't understand, and then a public demo started. The guy typed in a url and hit return, and in a bit we were looking at the home page for an art museum in Moscow. "That's nice." I thought.

Then he clicked on a link on the page, and we were looking at a painting at the museum. "That's nice," I thought, but I still was not very excited.

But then he clicked on a link underneath the painting, and suddenly we were at a museum in Paris that had paintings by the same painter.

"Oh my god," I thought, "the potentials for that are just limitless," and thought of a long list of amazing things you could use this for. And now I understood the web.
> While I'm not certain I could state what problem iPhone (or smartphones in general) solves, it's definitely proven market fit.

Being a market fit does not mean that it solves a problem. To me, this is only one important reason (though IMHO a more safe one to bet on) among many, why aroduct is successful in the market.

As I wrote: Bitcoin attempted to solve a problem that seemed (and in my opinion was) very important at the time when it came out (this also IMHO explains the initial hype). The problem simply has become a lot less important and urgent for most people in our days.

Sorry I thought "security" in this context was related to DRM. I do not think anti-cheat as a reason that companies are moving to SaaS is reasonable at all. They are moving to SaaS for a monthly payment model. There are very few games that get anti-cheat even close to right (including SaaS style offerings).
Bitcoin was indeed designed to avoid the need for trust:
"What is needed is an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust,
allowing any two willing parties to transact directly with each other without the need for a trusted
third party." [1]

To your point, in a broad sense the Bitcoin network relies on an inherent kind of "trust" that a certain set of economic assumptions and cryptographic algorithms will continue to function as designed.

If you want to equate that with the trust given to financial institutions and governments that handle most of the world's money, I'm not going to stop you; I just happen to think those are very different things. If someone (or a group of people) is able to pull off a 51% attack on Bitcoin (or if a serious flaw in the cryptographic algorithm gets discovered), there's a very high likelihood that everyone will know about it, and it will be fixed quickly. On the other hand, when the federal reserve decides to print another pile of cash, very few people know about it until they start noticing their grocery bill increasing. And even when you know there's a problem with the way our money is being manipulated, there's really not a lot you or anyone can do about it.

> A lot of organizations are getting real value out of Docker (and Kubernetes and NoSQL and React and all of the other trendy new things)

At the risk of nitpicking a word that may have been just used for emphasis, how can you be sure the value is real, though? Perceived value can be tough to tell apart, especially in a monoculture (called "herd mentality" earlier, perhaps too uncharitably).

Also, even if the value is real, is it technical, or political/behavioral? If it's the latter, that doesn't minimize theri value, but let's not pretend their advantages are technical. We could, instead, discuss if using the new tool is the best (or only) way to effect that change. It may be. It may even be that which tool it is doesn't matter, so long as it's different, as has turned out to be the case in ergonomics and RSI.

We've certainly seen some negative "NoSQL" headlines. How many startups used it to their eventual detriment, just following a trend and/or doing premature optimization? I'm not saying it can't provide value, rather than mere popularity and even perceived value, especially initially [1]

> saying that "no one needs it" is just as myopic and wrong as being part of the herd mentality.

I think that's what's called a "shallow dismissal" and is discouraged by the guidelines. The bare statement would be mere hyperbole and could possibly be "just as" wrong, but it was in reference to an entire article, which lays out the technical reasoning, which it's up to you to refute and point out they myopia of.

"Quartering Troops" sounds archaic, but every now and then lawmakers propose it, like forcing private airlines to provide discounted or free arrangements for servicemen traveling. (As opposed to negotiating rates with them, or soliciting competitive bids). These proposals usually don't get very far, but it shows you that the Government still thinks it's OK to _force_ a citizen or private business to give free services or accommodations to soldiers.

(For example, see https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/08/congressman-bruce-... and https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/08/delta-troops-afgha... The Government should reimburse him, and try to negotiate the best rates from the Airlines. I'd be all for the Airlines offering a discount, but they shouldn't be forced to.)
> "I'm fairly certain the _majority_ of what those networks air falls squarely in the propaganda bucket because what they air is primarily dictated by how much money they think it will make them."

This explanation seems confused to me.

Is the primary concern of these networks ideology or is it profit? If it's ideology, then profit does not dictate their content. If it's profit, then ideology does not dictate their content. There, of course, is overlap, but there must be one primary goal that ultimately decides content.

Personally, I do not believe those news organizations are propaganda because I do not believe they would forego profit to push an ideological stance. In contrast, I believe that state media in China would forego profits to push an ideological stance.

As a real world example, we can consider how the New York Times pushed the Clinton e-mail story ad nausem in the lead up to the 2016 election, despite this being in opposition to the ideology of the majority of its readers.
The issue is that domestic abuse is one of the main drivers of technology adoption in the first place. E.g. look at the studies of consumer adoption of beepers and cell phones.

My method is kind of pure anarchy, some bastardized combination of the bullet journal and freeform notation of things as the pop up in my head.

The real magic (for me) is highlighters. I highlight in my journal. Green = Requires action, orange = some kind of policy or process thing, blue = plan for later, or something I want to come back to or a stray idea to try out later.

Indentations happen to expand on the previous line. Hanging words are pushed over to the extremity of the page. I sometimes write sideways on pages as almost literal sidebars. There's an entire page of a handdrawn command line, colored with lines to output explaining a provisioning script I was rewriting earlier this year.

End of the day I then write a summary in OneNote (coming to really like this program--first time back in a Windows shop since 98SE), and later toss the critical stuff that needs to be de-silo'd into the team wiki.

You may be conflating liberal (those who agree with the political ideology) with liberal (used inaccurately to describe supporters of the Democratic Party), though I doubt you would find significant support for civil forfeiture among either group.

A lot of Second Amendment advocates say we need the right to bear arms to protect ourselves from a tyrannical government. Civil forfeiture is an excellent example of tyranny. If the Supreme Court decides it's legal, I better see an armed uprising.
