I don't think that's well-defined enough to unilaterally shut down debate. What if my religion tells me I can't work 6 months out of the year, and I need the same job protection Christians get for not working on Christmas and Easter? What if I'm asexual and I'm denied the tax benefits married people get? You're saying not only are these claims automatically granted, but that just discussing them is a punishable offense.

Also why is "religion, race, gender or sexuality" the holy quartet? Why not ageism, ablism, lookism, or my rights as a short person? Why are those open to debate while the others aren't?
I appreciate the commitment to social consequences, but I think you're mis-estimating.

Shipping is cheap, also in terms of the energy (for example) required to ship too. There are social consequences to using real estate for farming, using artificial lighting and to producing the vegetable factory too.

Most operators lock down to the runtime pretty tightly, leaving very few capabilities enabled.

If that's not enough, it's easy enough to ensure that a Pod is scheduled to run by itself in an otherwise unoccupied VM.

If that's not enough, the IaaS providers can be paid extra to ensure yours is the only VM on the physical machine.

You can have the same expensive guarantees, if you need them, but with a uniform control plane for all workloads. That's pretty attractive.
Sure. TLDR People have different motivations. You don't need to "find a co-founder" in order to check some box in your application process. If you do feel the need to apply with a team, don't split the equity evenly and define a very clear leader. Also, Plan on most of your team just giving up if you are rejected (despite what they say today). I applied with friends who who I knew for a year AND had worked with on a few apps. I was surprised when they quit after we were rejected.

Your biggest problem is finding a product market fit and defining a customer. If you can do this you can certainly hire all the help you need.

I should say that I'm a paying EFF member, have been for years, will continue to be, and I don't think that the EFF are a shill for Facebook.

However, the article gave me pause to reflect on the EFF's legislative agenda for what it calls privacy, and made me realize that the EFF's definition is quite different to mine.

Government surveillance is a problem for privacy and freedom. But increasingly, corporate surveillance is too. I had naively considered the EFF my one-stop-shop privacy lobbying organization, but I'm realizing that they're going to fight only half of my battle.

I'm struggling to recall a time when they've backed legislation which ran meaningfully counter to surveillance capitalism as a business model. I'm aware of (and extremely thankful for) Privacy Badger, Panopticlick etc., but these are really toys for nerds, not a credible threat to widespread corporate surveillance.

I'm bothered to find no mention of the California Consumer Privacy Act anywhere on their site (an extremely significant piece of legislation I'd at least expect them to comment on, which was strongly opposed by Google). To be clear, I'm not saying that underneath a rubber mask Cindy Cohn is actually Eric Schmidt, but that the EFF's eagerness not to oppose surveillance capitalism is something I naively hadn't considered before.

You make a familiar argument about the perils of regulation -- I understand this view, but don't personally share it. I'm not trying to convince you (or get you to convince me) on this issue, but my view is that regulating government activities has unintended consequences too, and waiting for the market to implement ethical choices is an call-to-inaction that could have been made (and I'm sure was) against ending slavery, banning child labor, introducing seat-belts, etc. etc. ad nauseam.
I'm actually going to use this indefinitely. Not only does it perk up my day it's surprising clear. Maybe Material went too subtle.

It's not a bad deal, especially when you consider you could live with minimal expenses while in the military. Saving a lot is not hard even on modest military pay when your living costs are all covered. I can't think of any other opportunities where you could start working at 18, save a lot, retire at 38, and get a pension.
Good points all. The aesthetic appeal of this sort of indoor farming, and the space-age-ness gives the topic a tendency to over-excitement.

I'd also add (4) Mostly, urban/vertical/cubicle farms produce high quality/price leafy herbs & veg. It's not replacing vast cereal fields. That's a very small portion of agriculture overall, definitely by land use but also by most measures.

All that said, the are real space-age-ish merits to this. It's like a showcase for various technologies, at (small, but still) production scale.

You push for what you want

No, you push for massive overreach. You never start negotiations asking for what you want.

Then it goes to an "election", the "opposition" party (come on, they all drink at the same bars, do lines of coke in the same toilets) wins, and the "watered down" bill basses with bipartisan support.

We don't live in democracies. Two reasons:

1. regular employees don't get a "winter break"

and

2. Until we have real time visibility of political donations, filtered through an anti-corruption body, we can't know whether the people in government deserve, or are eligible, to be there.
> "Many Americans believe that vegetarianism and veganism are wrong and even offensive belief systems."

These are really strong words. You're also now conflating people who aren't vegetarian with a general dislike of plant food. Someone can be an omnivore and include a lot of plants in their diet. I think most people also think that including plant-based foods in their diet is a good thing (and wish they did more of), even if it's not something they do in their everyday diet.

I've heard of people disagree with strong moralistic positions for vegetarianism/veganism and think strident/militant vegetarians/vegans are "kooky" and are put off by them, but this is due to the stridency, militant, and evangelical nature of those expressing such positions rather than something inherent in vegetarianism/veganism. I can't recall every hearing someone express that vegetarianism is offensive. I've heard people express that vegetarian/vegan diets don't provide full nutrition, so in that sense they think it's wrong, but that's much different from thinking it's morally wrong or offensive.

Sure, you'll get people who aren't tolerant of others viewpoints, but that's generally due to intolerance in general (and on many sides and issues), rather than something inherent in the particular position. And when someone is perceived to have a chip on their shoulder, there's always someone who just wants to push it off for no other reason than that it's there.

You can use "many Americans" to mean many things: there's a lot of people in America, so even a small percentage sharing a particular belief is going to be a lot of people. If you have numbers to support your views, I'd be interested in hearing them. To my reading, you may be particularly sensitive on this issue and in at least some cases reading more into some behavior and statements than may be warranted.

Hi! Author here, and glad to see my writeup on HN.

I’m a JS developer by trade, but I’ve recently started exploring FP/Haskell and came across the Y Combinator. The Y writeups currently online that I read were wonderful for a seasoned Haskell programmer, but I thought it would be great to explore the concept from a more FP beginner-friendly lens, and through a more familiar language - JavaScript.

I hope this exploration is helpful, and feel free to leave any questions or comments you may have below!

It's prime for Saskatchewan. Better than Montana or Wyoming land, but not a lot better. It's certainly not Kansas.

As for profits, the 2010s have been very good to Saskatchewan farmers. Decent crops and great prices, especially for lentils.
I'm afraid the majority of misunderstanding is coming from you.

So let's break down what vertical farming can really do.

1. Land which is zoned for agricultural purposes in many places where people live is not cheap simply because of development costs (desert, mountains.) Sure the land is cheap, but getting it into a usable state for farming is not. So being able to maximize what you can produce in one area is quite a necessity. To boot, buildings tend to be a little easier to manage when it comes to pest control and waste products.

2. The sun is horribly inefficient, contributes to a huge amount of water waste, and single-layer crop growth is inefficient as well for our growing global population. You're actually better off growing plants with LEDs (and in some cases the crop doesn't need light at all) using harvested solar energy.

3. Shipping is cheap LOCALLY. Try moving anything of any reasonable bulk anywhere more than a few miles and the prices jack up rapidly, plus now you're spewing pollution all over the place transporting things that could've been grown locally in tiny buildings.

"I actually love the idea of hydroponics for another reason entirely: it saves a ton of water."

Not always. Evaporation losses and transpiration/respiration losses are actually greater in some crops when it comes to hydroponics (as an example, a single cannabis plant can blow through gallons of nutrient solution daily in hydro while maybe using half as much in soil or a soil-less medium.) I think you're mixing up hydroponics with vertical farming in various places and really messing up the facts.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZTikdxj8AI - Check this out. This is the very building I worked upon in the UK during my stay out there. There are tens like it across the globe feeding starving populations in extremely difficult conditions (growing more than grass.) Vertical does what your traditional agriculture simply cannot do - high-volume production with scarce resources in a tightly-controlled and environmentally-friendly space, in places where such things are generally impossible.

Earning the Blunt Truth
Oh, no doubt there are benefits. If I come across a little sour right now, a close family member recently graduated and signed up for the military without really talking to anyone, because the recruiter told him being a peon in the Army would guarantee him a job at Google.

In my day job, I work with enlisted (not Air Force) and a bunch of ex-military, so I'm pretty familiar with the situation. I have actually been wondering if military retirement drives down wages, because a bunch of guys take pretty low salaries that are only okay because of their retirement check. Great deal for them, and definitely well-earned - it's no cakewalk to earn military retirement, harder than anything almost anyone in the private sector has to do - but I wonder how it works out across the labor market.

I do feel like, outside of the officer corps (who for some reason seem to hold onto it more often), the sense of noble purpose often gets crushed out by the inanity and bureaucracy so many of them have to put up with. IME that's usually why they don't re-enlist.
It’s astonishing to me that people would argue that docker is some how a simpler solution. Some would happily maintain a container registry, constantly worry about the order of operations in your docker file, create a build pipeline in a format incompatible with non docker use cases, spend time understanding how dockers bridge interacts with multiple Network controllers over learning how your operating system works.

Well it's needless to speculate, the variation is because London has the public transportation infrastructure to keep demand in prime areas under control. Wanting a large high quality apartment in zone 1 of London is a trio of luxuries that most people will happily compromise on, and they have the ability to do so without it being a big issue.

As far as space is concerned, in my experience one of the Bay Area's biggest problems was inefficient use of space in every which way possible. Even beyond the lack of usage of vertical space, every room I had was pretty huge, double bed, desk, room to do just about any kind of yoga I could think of and still a ton of extra on top of that. I'd have happily traded half of it for a few hundred off my rent.

I'd need to know what metrics are being used for quality (e.g. I'd take an absolute slum of a single room over sharing in prime apartment).
Being foreign isn't protected, like being disabled, so I'd be surprised if that works.
Also, for these fast growing, relative high margin produce, having fresh product out of season that is near-local, I think has a demand.

As discussed in https://vuejs.org/v2/guide/components.html#Using-v-model-on-...

<Component v-model="foo">

is basically shorthand for

<Component :value="foo" @input="foo=$event">

In particular, the child can't affect the value of the parent's "foo" attribute except by sending an event. This is in contrast to Angular 1 where changing "foo" in the child would also change it in the parent, which would often lead to confusing data flow cycles.
You might be interested in reading more about "Davy Crockett" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davy_Crockett_%28nuclear_devic...) and the Fulda Gap (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulda_Gap).

In short, for much of the Cold War the USSR had such a numbers advantage over NATO when it came to tank forces that the only chance NATO had to hold off a full-scale tank invasion by the USSR would have been the use of tactical nukes.

As you rightly point out, MAD strategy doesn't quite apply here. Yes, the Davy Crockett is a nuclear weapon. However, the fact that it only would've leveled the playing field probably means that the USSR wouldn't have immediately responded in kind. That said, a world of tactical nukes is definitely a scary one (Frank Herbert was rather prescient in this regard), and I'm glad we've never had to find out what it would look like.
Of course, if your language doesn't support recursion it probably doesn't have first-class functions either. It's pretty trivial to implement recursion if you can pass a function pointer around.

Life became full of uncertainty about the future and the lack of ability to plan that brings with it. I would go to bed every night half expecting that I'd awaken to shouting and guns pointed at me. 5+ years of panic attacks whenever I heard a loud noise like a car door slam outside or a heavy knock at the door. For many years I completely stopped posting about my political opinions online. A few years ago even just writing this the memories would've had me shaking.

I didn't react well and it kind of ruined my life, but it didn't necessarily have to. All they really did was threaten me and steal my stuff. I never heard from them again after that day.
Search engines can also have keywords (see about:preferences#search), but since extensions can’t programmatically create search engines this is not a great deal of help.
> Can you elaborate on the reliability part?

What I meant by reliability is personal. The stuff I learned when reading and experimenting with Nim in one day sufficed to do practical things in my daily work. Any new information was found easily and I could keep developing (vs. some years ago when I was learning Haskell, after the first joy with the "cleanness" of the syntax, the systems programming part down the road became a bear. I had to go through yet another learning curve to digest that). May be reliability is not the word, but its just that Nim didn't let me down even though only a very limited time was invested to learn it for my purposes.

> Python has a much richer set of libraries, testing utilities ..

Yes indeed. If an off-the-shelf numpy package sufficed I would have stuck with it. For recent numerical work (this is where I tried Nim first, graph theory, matrices where you have observed non-standard sparseness, ie. not a Toepiltz kind "standard" sparseness, and these you use to your advantage by coding it yourself). Even if I find an exactly needed package from the community, I have to read the sources to know how it is coded. Subtle details in implementation cannot be fathomed from verbal documentation as it impacts rate of convergence, memory consumption etc. or perhaps a bug your use case uncovered! So during prototyping and validation you use python or whatever to help with the exploring, test cases etc. Once you know exactly how you need to structure the algorithms, I code With Nim and I will know exactly whats in it. Nim coding has been easy, and the performance unusually good.

> with a huge family of tools (pip, conda, pipenv, virtualenv, etc.)

In my point of view, I'd rather not carry these many things to develop and deploy to maintain and manage processes at many distributed sites. On my local machine, yes. The initial development install of Nim anywhere (takes 3 minutes, no admin) has all the tools for the build, unit test, package, integration test, and you can run compiled binary anywhere, on systems supporting just the key data/network dependencies that the application demands...traveling light.
Hopefully for that premium you’d also get a TV that powers-on close to instantly (or at least faster than whatever box you’re using it with), gives you a control over display settings per-HDMI input, lets you use Bluetooth headphones (the ATV can do this, it’s great).

Unfortunately it would be niche indeed, as it’d be a very hard sell to push a “non-smart” TV at a premium, and I can’t see how the economies of scale could ever work. :(
