It's late. I'm tired. I left a couple of replies earlier, then deleted them. This seems like a just no win situation to me.

I'm not a feminist. I'm a former homemaker that self proclaimed feminists routinely crap on. I come to Hacker News because I need a place where I can engage in meaty intellectual discussion so I don't lose my marbles. That is my only agenda for being here. However, dealing with sexual politics is not something I can entirely avoid what with posting as openly female.

Suffice it to say that I don't really want to be associated with this toxic attitude and I am kind of wishing I had not said anything at all. I am starting to feel like "The only winning move is not to play" and I failed to make that move.

> Unfortunate that the 404 page happened to have a byte sequence that would be interpreted as a COM

That's the thing. Any byte sequence which didn't have an EXE header was interpreted as a COM executable. And in the (NT)VDM environment, there aren't a lot of illegal operations, so executing random data (like an HTML error page) can cause quite a bit of unpredictable behavior before it crashes or gets caught in a loop.

If it's true then...

Obviously, if a person's brain is affected by poverty, the market isn't going to offer them the equal opportunity when that opportunity can go to the person (rich) whose brain is not limited by poverty.

UBI won't help them much! They'll still feel poor even if they've money to meet the absolute basics for a good quality of life.

I think a possible solution is to make it a law that a marriage is "must" and "can only" take place between a rich and poor person.

That way you can keep forcing equality at generation level till inequality is eradicated.

Achieving equality completely at "economic level" isn't possible unless you get done with the social signaling and things like class which can even stop a poor but smart person from rising faster to the top rung.
If UBI leads to increased productivity, everyone would benefit. Not just people who need it.
Thanks for that reply. ️

This seems ridiculous, given the context. They also have loads of content with the same word used by characters that are racist, yet it doesn't make those films themselves racist.
Common misconception. CIA is allowed to target Americans, and does on a regular basis.

Targeting Americans for political purposes is illegal. Targeting Americans for National Security reasons is perfectly within National Security Law.

Don't you need time to even define movement? Movement is a change of the position with respect to time. So without time you can't have movement. But obviously you are right that the two concepts are strictly related, that doesn't mean time doesn't "exist" (however you define "exist").

You're right. In that particular case, ND4J comes to Neanderthal's speed. But only in that particular case; and even then ND4J is still not faster than Neanderthal. My initial quest was to find out whether ND4J can be faster than Neanderthal, and I still couldn't find a case where it is.

Although, to my defense, the option in question here is very poorly documented. I've found the ND4J tutorial page where it's mentioned, and even after re-reading the sentence multiple times, I still do not connect its description to what it (seems to) actually do. It also does not mention that it affects computation speed.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to reading your detailed analysis, and especially seeing your Neanderthal numbers.

I brought my MBP (late 2016) in for repair because 2 keys‘ notches had broken off - thank god they could replace the keys on the spot, and also cleaned the whole keyboard with pressurized air. I must say, the thorough cleaning did restore most of the problematic keys back to normal. They only forgot the / key which is a bit annoying, but I might just buy a pressurized air can for a couple Euros and fix that myself.

North Korea was very likely the culprit behind the SONY hacks.

If you read the leaked emails, you will find that SONY had worked with the US Department of State and the CIA to add American propaganda into "The Interview" with a plan to distribute it across the Korean Peninsula. Seth Rogan also did several interviews about CIA and State Department working on the set.

The group attributed for hacking SONY was "DarkSeoul" within "Bureau 121". This group is known for actively retaliating against companies that use propaganda to attack North Korean national security as a form of deterrence.

Additionally, the group posted, along with the SONY leaks, criticisms of what they called "the movie of terrorism" ("The Interview").

Of course, American media turned it all around and pretended that they said something about blowing up movie theaters, and caused a public panic.

Nobody in the IC attributed Vault7 to Russia. Wikileaks themselves suggested that it was a CIA contractor. US media did domestically propagandize the public via IC partnerships to "infer" and "suggest" that it was Russia, but no public statements that I'm aware of were made.
Man, the internet is a cold, cold place.

I was deeply touched by the article, on how sudden fame and the drive for growth and success can take a huge toll. How execution and a healthy mind are as important as a good product or idea. Or how debt or crowdfunding can be the wrong way to raise money fast for a product yet to be delivered.

But here we have it, long threads discurring on what would be the best brand of scissors in the market today.

This study accounts for that in all the experiments described. They send financial problems at random to people. That means the genes of the individuals will be random.

The sugar farmers in India also present a good random experiment because they are not picking people based on whether they are rich or poor already, but based on how things turn out from one rather random event: the harvest.

Saying categorically: "Any social study that doesn't control for genes is a worthless study. Do a twin study or don't even bother."

Just shows ignorance on the matter. 1) Genetics wont affect a lot of studies. 2) Twin studies are not the gold standard you seem believe it is. Adopted children in twin studies are usually not adopted into a random environment, since the requirements are high. When the environment is stable and has little variation, then most of the variation you measure will be heritable, thus falsely setting heritability very high.
I have no problems with fractional scaling (150%) on my dual 27 inch 4K monitors, apart from one annoying bug that sometimes resets scaling to 100% after screen lock. Same could be said about my laptop, 13 inch 2560x1700 also 150% scaling. I'm running Unity on both obviously since Gnome doesn't even support fractional scaling, which is highly disappointing.

Genuine question: is this attitude held by most Americans or is it just the hypersensitive tech scene in California? I think I'd go mad living over there if this is really how people think.

To be clear, I hate racism. It's disgusting. But I also hate people being overly keen on getting offended on behalf of everyone else.
Weird. My X is scratch free with no protector. Never even heard of this issue.
"In 1760, George III reached an agreement with the Government over the estate. The Crown Lands would be managed on behalf of the Government and the surplus revenue would go to the Treasury. In return the King would receive a fixed annual payment - what later became known as the Civil List." From http://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/en-gb/resources/faqs/

It seems the handout you are talking about are essentially part of the dividends that flow back from the yield generated by the assets of the Crown Estate. Austerity or not, these assets are worth a lot of money.

If you have a billion dollars worth of assets (or in this case, 12 billion), even during economic crisis you'll likely still be making ends meet without issues.

Well, to start I'll just say, despite my flippant phrasing above, I am not so naive to think that originalism is a stupid idea. There are people that have forgotten more about law than anyone here will probably ever know on both sides of this debate, so I think there is obviously something to both sides.

But to your point, it's not that they wanted it to mean anything. It's just that the constitution is broad and vague, not because we lack historical context or some window into the mind of Madison, but because it is intentionally vague. Let's take the relevant amendment here:

> The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause...

That phrase "probable cause." Not very specific to my mind. It can't mean anything at all, but it leaves most questions unanswered. Is an anonymous phone tip probable cause? If an officer pulls over a car and the driver is sweating and nervous, is it probable cause to get a warrant to search his house for drugs? What if the driver smells like drugs? What if he is carrying lots of cash? What if there is blood on his shirt? And on and on...

Without the hundred plus years of case law that have worked to develop tests for what qualifies and doesn't qualify as probable cause, it really might mean almost anything. What good does it do to ask, "What would James Madison have thought about a driver that smells like drugs?" He probably would have thought it was an interesting legal question for the courts, that's what! Judges should figure that out by trying to predict the real world outcomes of their decisions, not reading tea leaves in the Federalist papers.

But yea, just like my, opinion, man.

Do you really think everyone of the 325 million will be a recipient of the $10k income, or perhaps only the ones that earn the least? Is this a proposal any sane advocate of UBI has put forward, or are you perhaps strawmanning a slight bit?

I am not necessarily in agreement with everything UBI related, but adding noise to the conversation isn't going to get us to any insights any quicker.
This means you have to rely on precedence, or add your own parens.

For example, how do you read this?

f -4

In F#, whitespace is significant (and it's a function call); in OCaml, it's a subtraction. The idea of wrapping a negative number with parens is not necessarily obvious.
That's because Wikileaks is not in any way a Russian operation.

Wikileaks is globally important as a whistleblowing operation. If you go back to the 1990s you can find the US government applauding Wikileaks' publications.

When Wikileaks distributed several large caches of US documents, and would not negotiate with the US Justice Department on disclosure, censorship and propaganda agreements common with most other news providers - this more friendly relationship curdled.

The US became increasingly hostile with Wikileaks, tried to get its operators extradited, even shopped around for internet sock puppets and social media campaigns to damage their reputations.

Wikileaks in turn became distasteful of the US, and happily publishes damaging materials on the United States. These documents also happen to cover many of the details associated with unsavory activity of the world's sole superpower, which makes the reporting rather important.

US media characterizations of Wikileaks as a Russian operation are, and have been, a (successful?) domestic propaganda campaign. The way the IG talks in internal documents (go find them) about Wikileaks is that it is an independent information organization that "punches above its weight" and has geopolitical capabilities as a non-state actor. That's much closer to the truth.
Great they’re replacing the keyboards, with what, the same keyboards probe to the defect? It doesn’t even mention on the site that they have fixed the issue. When I brought my one in for repair, they simply replaced the keyboard with a new one and sent me on my way.

They may give some more context, but you usually need to know the domain up to some point anyway.

For example:

a = &b;

may just be a weird bunch of symbols if you don't know C. But my point is that, anyway, for someone who doesn't have any idea about what a pointer is:

a is pointer_to b;

is not going to make it obvious, and it is going to make a simple program with a linked list a nightmare to read for those who know.

I am aware it is also very easy to show an example where symbols are much less helpful than words. Some good ones were given in this thread. I am just suggesting to keep an open mind because I have the feeling symbols can actually make some programs more readable, although finding the right balance is not an easy task.
Not to be glib but _Universal_ rather implies something.
This is a short decision (6 pages including the dissent). The dissent is not impassioned, but rather starts with dryly reciting the facts, then says:

>Although the record contains factors that could support a
contrary conclusion, including that couriers are not required to wear any uniform, can work for competitors and determine the route for delivery, substantial evidence supports the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board's finding that sufficient supervision, direction and control was exercised by Postmates to
establish an employment relationship.

It also specifically points to differences between this and another case:

>Our recent
decision in Matter of Courto (SCA Enterprises-Commissioner of
Labor) (159 AD3d 1240 [2018]) does not, as Postmates contends,
compel a different outcome. All of these cases are fact specific
and there are several key factual distinctions between this case
and Courto that substantiate the Board's finding of an employment
relationship here, but not in Courto.

It then dryly recites the facts in that other case.

So this absolutely doesn't seem like the kind of thing that sets a "precedent". It is not really couched in landmark language.

Read for yourself at parent's link - the ruling and dissent are together 5 and half pages. It's really quite specific and doesn't seem to generalize at all.

Note: not a lawyer, not well-versed in this area of law.
Yes, it's more about the the shape of the progress curve. In python you get productive in 3 days, then you nicely climb up to expertise for the next 10 years. There is not huge road block. Decorators, generators and metaclasses are hairy but won't prevent you from coding anything or undertsanding a program that use them so you can smooth in.
I wish email had this feature. Sometimes I might ask someone to do something, and when they reply like "Done", it would be nice to just react with a thumbs up or something rather than continuing the chain of emails with a "Thank you" etc
Any Object=Actor Programming Languages?
Are there any programming languages in which Object's are Actors? Or, at least, an object can be made an actor with a simple declaration?

An interesting comment from an article on the topic (http://debasishg.blogspot.com/2009/04/objects-as-actors.html), indicates this was the original intent of OOP, but due to hardware limitations, it did not materialize...

> "It dates back even further than Actors, since Carl Hewitt's paper was actually heavily inspired by Smalltalk-71. Originally, Actors and Objects were one and the same, so much so, that there weren't even two different words to describe them – they were just called objects. [...]

> This was so obvious to them that they didn't even realize that they had invented a new concurrency paradigm, until Alan Kay gave Carl Hewitt a demonstration of Smalltalk-71, and Hewitt realized that the message-directed execution model of Smalltalk-71 (inspired by PLANNER's pattern-directed execution) could be extracted into it's own paradigm.

> Unfortunately, then, Alan Kay made what he would later call one of the biggest mistakes in his lifetime: some of his compiler-savvy colleagues convinced him that he would never be able to implement this efficiently, and in what is probably one of the most tragic instances of premature optimization gone horribly wrong, Kay made two design changes to Smalltalk: he replaced the message-passing execution model with conventional subroutine calls and he introduced the idea of classes.

> From then on, Actors and Objects went their separate ways."

Reia (http://reia-lang.org/) is the only language I know of that pursued this model. But it is defunct. Are there any others?
Context is everything they say.
Back when I used IRC for work I always ran irssi on a server in screen and ssh'd in. I had a window that picked up any highlight that happened and, of course, logged everything.

I liked this solution. After a while people would understand that you are always idling and probably afk but that you would pick up any messages as soon as you can.

Nowadays you could idle using a raspberry pi or something. It would use less power than your phone. I don't want IRC while I'm out. That's not the point of it.
Here's the thing about the "young people" argument: the young, because time, live in a world built by the old. Everything from the physical infrastructure to the social institutions. So if paying for pensions is a wealth transfer from young to old, usage of the built environment is the opposite flow.

In other words, the people who built say the roads did so for a package of renumeration that included a salary and a pension. Now you are proposing to renege on half of that deal. Fine - but stop using the roads you didn't pay to build in the first place. Stop using the technology that you didn't pay to do the basic research for. Not such an attractive deal now is it?
