This is very cool. I like the fact that you also have an API @ https://bhagavadgita.io/api/ (I did find a typo there fyi, search for "documenatations"). I think you can add features like a leaderboard and games and quizzes based on the Gita. Very cool project.

I have found that American life is very different from cities like London or Paris. I prefer the American cities. People live in single family homes far away and travel upto 50 miles for work every day. Different people have different choices as to what kind of environment they want to live in and also school district matters. If you work in Silicon valley you can either live in downtown for astronomical rent, in Los Gatos hills, in Mountain-House/Tracy plains for very low housing cost, in Urban small houses in South San Jose or immigrant ghettos in Fremont. Each offers you a different life. If you have really smart kids move to Cupertino school district is good too.

Occasionally you might want to visit LA or Mount Shasta or your old parents living in Santa Barbara or you might want to drive to Vegas through death valley. Having a good car in USA is not just fun but essential to have a good life. You can live in Lodon and borrow your parents car sometimes or just get the tube. That is not possible in bay area because geographically it is large, people have different needs and so on.

Teachers want enthusiasm from students so they encourage them to do things they're enthusiastic about. They don't share the pain if their student who follows their passion for music or poetry becomes indigent in the future.

Sorry, when did they "turn out to be a setup?"

This matter of fact phrasing implies evidence beyond a shadow of a doubt exists which should be commonly known, so if you could cite that, it would be appreciated.
first, thank you very much for responding,

but still I have the impression that bottom refers to the more fundamental perspective, and top refers to the more general perspective...

i.e. the fundamental equations for electromagnetism are the maxwell equations with epsilon, mu and c for vacuum, and then one can use these as microscopic equation for other media and generate effective equations for other media so that the new maxwell equations are similar but modified, i.e. different scalar epsilon, mu, c or perhaps for birefringent crystals the epsilon and mu are genralized to matrices/tensors, or for nonlinear optics theres second and third order tensors... and those new effective equations are top and the fundamental is bottom... at least thats how I think most people would denote top and bottom...

I kind of see what you mean, but I don't think top annd bottom on energy scales is very significant, I think the derivabilitiy of new effective constitutive equations/propeerties from fundamental equations/properties is more top vs bottom...

but I agree, at a certain point its not a discussion of physics but just dictionary wars...

Was MIPS R2000-based but didn't include an R2010 FPU, having a custom vector unit instead. That was serviceable for the few programs specially compiled for it that could use it, but everything else trapped to _slow_ software FP emulation.

The machine felt like a slug and was an expensive power/thermal hog for what it delivered.

I have a late 2013 with the same exact keyboard problem. Apple quotes a crazy repair price. Can someone sue for us?
Poll Everywhere is hiring a desktop app engineer
While this is incredibly anecdotal (e.g., a sample of one), I use my "MacBook Escape" (the non-touchbar 13") at home and in coffee shops and have not had a problem. I've also had two touchbar MBPs at two different jobs and so far have had no issues, although they tend to remain closed except for meetings.
This issue is not overblown. I've used nothing but Macs since 2001, and am now at the third company I've worked at that maintains a substantial fleet of Macbooks. This most recent keyboard debacle is the worst thing that ever happened to the Macbook platform.

Literally every single MBP in our office has failed, some of them more than once. The failure mode is always the same: the keyboard gets flaky, then you lose a key for a couple hours until you manage to finagle it back into working, then you lose 1-2 more keys and they never work properly again. The only fix is to turn it over to Apple for several days, which means you can't count on a single MBP per employee, because at any given moment --- with near certainty --- someone's laptop will be taken out for several days.

On the plus side, it's a little bit like Chaos Monkey for backups, since you always know you're probably just a day or two away from needing to swap machines.

It sounds like a minor thing, I get it! "Sticking keys, oh no!" The problem is: you can't type. The only way to be typing again on your machine is to have it sent away for several days. That's a disaster.
I did not reach a forgone conclusion. I reached an informed conclusion after reading the indictment and hearing the explanation by the defendant. That is not a forgone conclusion, that is just a normal, regular, every day conclusion based on the reasonable perponderance of evidence of what seems most credible. Reaching conclusions after reading evidence is what people do.

Could he be innocent? Sure. Could the VM be a plant? Sure. Could the government be lying? Sure. And that is why we have a justice system.

But just because something is possible, or you can come up with an explation of why something may exist, doesn't mean it's probable, and doesn't mean it's likely.

And for the record, since you seem to think you know all about me and my government-shilling ways, I was protesting the war at MIT before you were even born, and I actually think this guy is innocent of the leaking charges. I also happen to think he's very likely guilty of the CP charges.

By the way, do actually have any evidence whatsoever that would imply the government planted that VM, other than some theoretical argument? Because for all your bluster about rationality, I don't see you presenting a shred of evidence to suggest that this didn't go down exactly how it was presented in the indictment.

Grew up in rural Asia on a small farm. Every morning I have to wake up before the sun goes up to fetch water to take care of the animals.

The animals we had to sell to get basic necessities such as salt, paper, clothing, gas and oil for light and cooking. We ate meat for at most 10 days a year. Always for a special occasion. The rest of the time was mainly potatoes, cabbage, and carrots. Usually diluted into soup.

Coming to America where even poor Americans can enjoy something like a McDonalds burger every single day was unimaginable.

Sadly there are still people right now in these rural impoverished areas growing up like I did. You don't realize it when you are poor and haven't experienced anything else.

One of the most amazing experiences was flying in a plane for the first time in my life.

No, they publish classified documents. What they do is more akin to public espionage than journalism.
Based on the email from the VP, my wild guess is they figured out that Twitter operating Smyte would make Twitter itself not GPDR compliant (or some other big regulation), and they didn't figure it out until after the deal was done.

Two of our 8 developers have powerful Linux desktops. At the time, they cost around the same as a top-spec MacBook: 64GiB RAM, Xeon CPU, a graphics card that has no problem with two HiDPI screens, 2 SSDs and 2 HDDs. We're both running Kubuntu on them. I think other developers will switch, after seeing first-hand the problems with the new MacBook.

I find it really convenient that I can run a CPU-intensive task using lots of storage on my desktop and no-one (especially me) notices any fan noise. A few months ago I took on a task to adapt a local data processing pipeline to run some analysis on the Hadoop cluster. Instead I ended up running it on the desktop over the weekend: total development time about an hour, EC2 cost $0.

The systems are from Dell, a previous model of the 5820: http://www.dell.com/developers (no affiliation, this is the Google search result link).

Ask HN: Is now a good time to buy a new MacBook or should I wait?
So it's time I bought myself a new machine. As a dev I feel gravitated towards the MBP line-up.
However, with all the stories I've been hearing about the 2016/2017 models having weird keyboard issues and a rather large (too large) trackpad, along with the potential of a new model being released at some point this year apparently (32GB anyone?).. I'm not sure if I should just go for it or if waiting a while is a good idea.
What do you think? Any insider knowledge you could share that would help?
Not really. Nobody is buying American LNG. It is not a competitive product hence the Russia-hate and tariffs on imported solar panels. Plus renewables are cheaper. British shipyards are raking it in making giant wind turbines instead of Titanic sized ships. Because of the shale 'revolution' America has missed the boat, the only bright light being the much-shorted TSLA.
Yup which is one reason why trump is pushing so hard on tariffs. The chinese have an army of hackers committing war fare against the usa and its trade secrets. Governments should not be hacking each other. They should be engaging in diplomacy like any civilized country.
Think of thermometer, which everyone of us uses. It doesn't tell much about what is going on inside, but it tells us that something is NOT normal esp out of normal body temp range. Does fMRI play the role of thermometer? Yes when there are injuries; but injury itself plays the role of the thermometer.

fMRI is not useful in settling the disputes about how brain makes the mind--esp higher cognitive processes.
The other week my internet went out. I felt disconnected, like there was a part of me reaching out, hungry, for entertainment and more, and it felt like it was just landing on the ground.

Perhaps a part of self absorption is self discovery, finding a kindredness with others(and now we can kindle that with unlimited numbers online), which makes us feel the ability to constantly reinvent, which becomes an ongoing experiment.

In a way self absorption could be: how do we process and make relevant, to our own experience, all this new information the internet brings.
these are all very good questions, and only a community discussion of people with the right skills and interests can draft a petition, if enough people contribute to the discussion we can make the proposal more reasonable and robust against valid criticisms... but I believe we can make this happen by just starting the discussion. We can bitch on Hacker News, or we can draft a proposal for the different government levels. The more reasonable we draft it, the higher the probability the petition will be a success. I think it wouldn't be hard to argue against this proposal that a legally enforced computation should be open source, i.e. not just the algorithm for the computation but also all the data lists and boundary polygons used in the algorithm...
> Take away the ability to credibly discuss those things as negative, and you take away the ability to comprehend and solve some very real problems.

I think it follows that you also take away the ability to honestly reflect upon and comprehend one's own behavior. For this reason I've come to the belief that the trend to encourage people to "never regret" limits self-growth and even limits empathy[1].

Maybe it's the latent Catholic in me, but regret and shame are very primitive and _necessary_ emotions. Yes, they're often abused by society and individuals to harm others. But to recognize that doesn't require that they should be denied or suppressed. Empathy and sympathy can be manipulated to harm people, too; that doesn't mean people should instead become hardened sociopaths. The only difference here is that empathy (especially when received) is pleasurable, while regret and shame are painful. But to believe that distinction makes one legitimate and constructive and the other illegitimate and destructive is fundamentally hedonistic and narcissistic. These emotions are largely environmental inputs (directly or indirectly, immediate and latent) that we need to learn to affirmatively assimilate to better understand ourselves and the world around us. Denying, suppressing, or categorically desensitizing oneself to these emotions is not assimilation; quite the opposite.

[1] For example, by obscuring one's own hypocrisy--living by a rule that says never judge oneself is much easier than living by a rule that says never judge someone else. So it exacerbates an asymmetry between understanding one's own secret motivations and understanding someone else's secret motivations.

As I said, I don't know the right answer about the 1A claim. I suspect a factually narrower ruling would have entirely been possible.

But they definitely could have ruled exactly the same way without making the insane "do not give rise to corruption or the appearance of corruption" comment.

That's just entirely absurd, and I think it's fairly obvious that it factually is wrong.

Nor did they have to rule the way they did in speechnow vs FEC, which is largely the case that people think about when talking about Citizens United.

nature of consciousness is the biggest one IMO, precisely because it doesn't appear to be captured by "nature of existence." we have good physical/mathematical models on hand re: causation, such that we can at least start hypothesizing about what change is, where the universe came from, what if anything differentiates life from other motion, etc.

but consciousness is so categorically different that we can't even start. "well, brains are made up of cells and further of particles, and electricity works this way and here's some results from information theory and [UTTER MAGICAL WALL / ABYSSAL GAP] then there's the subjective experience of consciousness and will. and damnit we don't have anything like a logical or explanatory connection between these two sides, but for 'well, if i destroy 'someone else's' (??? what's this possessive in our fundamental terms???) body in the right way, it stops acting as if it's conscious like me, and also my own consciousness (which i can't describe with any specificity) changes when i do weird physical things involving drugs, injury, nutrition, um... and attitudes seem to matter, and there's definitely a subconscious, i guess, and...'..."
Four years seems like a reasonable amount of time to cover an issue. If it fails after that, it’s time to buy a new computer anyway.
>Simple trick behind this technique is that when using shell wildcards, especially asterisk (...), Unix shell will interpret files beginning with hyphen (-) character as command line arguments to executed command/program.

To be clear, the shell isn't really 'interpreting' anything here — it knows absolutely nothing about the argument conventions of whatever program you're running[0]. All it's doing is passing a list of arguments to an executable; how the executable deals with that is up to it.

And this isn't only a shell problem — it's an issue when you pass arbitrary arguments to ANY external utility in ANY language. For example, maybe you have some kind of tool that calls grep:

# Perl
exec '/usr/bin/grep', '-R', $input, 'mydir';

# PHP (with Symfony Process)
(new Process(['/usr/bin/grep', '-R', $input, 'mydir']))->run();

# Python
subprocess.run(['/usr/bin/grep', '-R', input, 'mydir'])

# C
execv("/usr/bin/grep", (char *[]) {"grep", "-R", input, "mydir", NULL});

All of these are safe in the sense that there's no risk of shell command injection (in fact, only the PHP one even calls the shell), but NONE of them are safe against this problem, where the input value might begin with a hyphen. In this grep scenario it's probably not a security issue, but it can produce confusing results for the user if nothing else.

As others mentioned, you must ALWAYS use '--' to mark the end of option processing when you do something like this.

[0] Technically the shell knows about the conventions of its built-ins, but even those mostly handle arguments in a similar fashion to external utilities, where an arbitrary argv is fed to a function and then parsed using some getopts-like method.

It sounds strange to hear 'full stop' described as a leftover from telegraph technologies. To me, it's just what I call the dot at the end of a sentence.

In American English, 'period' is used in the same ways (indicating the end of a sentence and, like in the above case, to indicate that a matter is closed for further discussion).

There's a non-zero chance that starting this program now means the next release of the MacBook and MacBook Pro lines is going to have another keyboard redesign. I don't mean that to sound conspiratorial, but this is an admission of a problem that's attracted a lot of attention over the last ~12 months that they've been conspicuously silent on, and this makes me suspect that they at least think they've gotten the bugs worked out. (Said bugs are apparently dust mites.)

I'd like to see at least one MacBook Pro model that at least threw the SD slot and HDMI port back in. And, sure, USB-A, but I suspect that ship has sailed no matter how much of a mess USB-C objectively is. Of course, I'd like to just see the MBP models all switch to the Magic Keyboard design even though it will -- gasp! -- make the machine a millimeter thicker...

I find that while Neuromancer lays on the atmosphere heavy from the beginning, Count Zero is all about insinuations and implications. Kinda like Dune in that regard. This doesn't take anything away, but it means that it's not as in-your-face as Neuromancer. It's a more intuitive book.

The concepts and ideas are as iconoclastic as ever but one needs a keen eye and ideally personal experience in order to fully appreciate them. None of the sprawl trilogy novels are geared towards angry teenagers, they're layered with almost transcendental meaning that works on multiple levels.
