A worthwhile counterexample at the time, but imagine how it would play out today. If the suffrage advocates didn't turn it into a personal fight, the other side would. The opponents would win some battles, then they would lose some bigger ones... and then they'd do what's necessary to take over institutions ranging from market-leading TV news channels to the Supreme Court, and fix the "problem" once and for all. These days, anyone who tries to take the high road in politics finds that it ends at the top of a cliff.

I think the critics of Rand ignore the speculative nature of her works and focus too much on the ad hominem.

Anthem was a really good work about the dangers to an individual of a collectivist utilitarian society. I think it should be regarded up there with 1984 and Brave New World. Atlas Shrugged was a bad work of art with a keen idea. In a lot of ways, I don't think Rand had any idea what she was writing about and fetishized her own works into this strange hypercapitalist ideal. The idea that society could be abandoned by "the one percent" and left to languish has become a common theme of modern science fiction, especially in young adult fiction and anime.

Capitalism will still work from the perspective of human progress, but the progress is becoming less and less shared. Spreading out the wealth curve will logically increase human development as those with potential receive more opportunity.

I'll give you that a man and a woman of the same physical size can each generally perform the same physical tasks. I'll also agree they should be paid the same.

However, saying the average sized woman can perform the same physical tasks as the average sized man is easily shown to be false using simple physics.
I recently had to cancel an ongoing subscription I had with Equifax, which requires you to call by phone. Unbelievably frustrating. I had to dial the service at least 10 times. Each time, the automated responder would make me go through a very slow menu selection process, only to randomly fail to acknowledge either my correct SSN or zipcode or street number, which I entered using a keypad. As a consumer, I've had to enter info via phone keypad for as long as I can remember, and I've never run into a system (not even small local businesses) that was so randomly buggy.

I thought maybe I had the wrong phone number for cancellation. Turns out, when you google "cancel Equifax phone number", there are several phone numbers listed by Equifax itself, on various sections of its "help" pages.

Took me about half an hour to finally reach a human operator. Surprisingly, the cancellation process was quick with her with no haggling. But I imagine the process is so frustrating overall that a good number of people just give up.
I worked in AU around ten years ago. I don't remember salaries coming anywhere near the UK or US. I'd love to know if things are better now.

I wouldn't say the UK market particularly undervalues talent, in the city at least. Most of my peer group are on a day rate of 800-900 which (assuming you take 5 weeks of holidays) would translate to at least USD 248k gross. Chatting to our traders they are pretty jealous of our 9-5 hours, 2 hour lunch breaks and relaxed dress code.
I know that the actual system is currently terrible in many places, wherein the recycle and trash are mixed together and re-sorted by humans. Ignoring that for the moment...

There are some practical reasons for recycle bins, or at least for separating out paper. Paper can get damaged if mixed with liquids or other foods/compostable material, and harder or not worth recycling. Keeping it separate from the very beginning increases the ability and efficiency of recycling => less dead trees.
It's eventually consistent :) I'll add it as a bug, thanks!

Yeah, this is a good point. Most of the HN crowd understands that ML-powered autonomous vehicles will have crazy failure modes that no human would ever do. Proponents of self-driving cars claim that the reverse is also true and that, on average, self-driving cars will be safer on average than humans – and that might be true! But it still matters that the humans remaining on the road can't predict what these things will do and our theory of mind won't work: even bad drivers are usually bad in predictable ways, but a software system that makes unexpected mistakes humans can't understand has second-order dangers on the road besides the ones it creates itself.
I have not gone to graduate school at a place like MIT or Harvard, but I have done graduate work at both a top 30 and a top 60 school. There was absolutely a difference in quality of research, professors, and coursework at both schools (STEM subjects, and the top 30 school being higher quality).

> 25 minor accidents so far this year. Mostly Cruise.

First link I clicked (Cruise "accident" on June 22, 2018) is pretty fantastic.

https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/wcm/connect/81d8865f-4c99-4342...

> A Cruise autonomous vehicle ("Cruise AV"), operating in autonomous mode, was traveling westbound on El Camino Del Mar between 32nd Ave and Legion of Honor Drive. The Cruise AV was struck by a golf ball from a nearby golf course causing damage to the Cruise AV's front driver windshield. There were no injuries and police were not called.
Yes, it does.

1. Every system has vulnerabilities. You can defend against them.

2. Any improperly configured system can be abused. In particular, the exploit you linked can be completely stopped with a litany of ways. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16030107

Your argument going from "containers are unfit for production, you'll mature out of them one day" to "here's a small, preventable vulnerability" seems more like a security non-sequiter than an actual argument against containerization.

Further, claiming containers are not production ready is empirically and literally negated by them used, in production, by the largest tech companies that have ever existed.
Even so, outside CA the law will go a long way towards removing plausible deniability, and that's something.

Enforce a single Git repository for all common scripts, and enforce pull requests for every script inserted into that repository, no exceptions. Lock down `master` to either an approved releaser or a release bot to further enforce this.

I used this tutorial:
https://medium.com/containermind/how-to-create-a-kubernetes-...

It is also nice that I could do this on macs and linux. I used my personal MBP to do some and my office machine (system76 running Ubuntu.)

The best advice would be to create, test, delete over and over and over. I used personal AWS funds to do this while in grad school, so the added pressure of making the best use of limited funds was great -- i would spin up dozens and dozens of machines, join, run, tear down in short timeframes. As usual, choose a simple project. I chose multi-machine TensorFlow inference a model since that is something that is an obvious candidate for elasticity.

Funny story - I once spun up a K8 cluster and tried to delete the machines manually on AWS and witnessed how incredibly robust the cluster is (new nodes kept getting re-instantiated.) Lessons learned: 1. K8 is robust; 2. use kops to also tear down the cluster;

AWS has their own tutorial, but I didnt like that -- it was too focused on tangential details.

I agree with you but it was probably your language. HN isn't a free speech zone.
Yeah, you're right, they wanted 512 instead of 2048 bytes per sector to use the CD as a HD. But I think that at least one of the Unix vendors shipped the install media as 520 byte sectors, with 512 bytes of data and 8 bytes of checksum. In order to duplicate the discs, you needed to own a writer that was fancier than average (i.e. a SCSI unit, not an IDE one).
They don't look remotely similar to me, especially considering that black, blue, navy, grey and khaki (and reflective yellow for people on roads) are not unpopular colours for clothes worn by people who are not police officers or otherwise involved in traffic direction, many of whom may have cause to move their arms in ways comparable to signals. Humans are just a lot better at gauging intention and even simple stuff like parsing the word "police" at an oblique angle

Frankly even with local training, you'd still think giving law enforcement devices to stop, restart and redirect vehicles was a minimum requirement.

Really? How?

The personal habits were egregious, but as to his administrative choices, do you simply disagree with his policy choices? Or did he do something wrong?

EDIT: The reason his corruption made me sad is that I thought he was succeeding at the basic tenets of his job. Which means that you and I might well differ at what those tenets might be. I'm curious: what do you think the head of the EPA should be doing (within the bounds of the job) that he was not doing?

I didn't start eating well or exercising until my 40s, but now am in the best shape I've ever been at 45.

I would say that I regret not doing these things earlier, but a large part of the issue is that it's somewhat expensive (both in terms of time and $$) to exercise and eat well, so it would have been hard for me to afford living like this (both in terms of time and money) when I was younger.

(Yes, you can eat well and exercise well without much money, but it's super challenging if you can't afford quality prepared foods and a decent gym membership: I don't see many 24 year olds that have a full time job, are in top physical health, but also still have time available for other interests...)
Whether brains "are" TM's may be mostly moot from a simulation/emulation/modelling standpoint. We may not need a perfect model to get a "good enough" model. Biological systems are generally designed to handle a degree of noise and damage and still function fairly well. Thus noise introduced by the imperfections of a model may similarly not sufficiently degrade its ability to act like a normal brain.

On a really small scale our models may lack certain properties of biological brains, but it may not matter for most emulation. How much detail and/or actual "mirroring" is necessary to get good-enough emulation is still an unknown but key question.

And, I suspect we may find that fully mirroring biological systems is not the most efficient way to design good AI similar to how flapping wings were not the best way to get powered flight.

Basically the reactor will cool itself without operator intervention and without power for 72 hours. After 72 hours the operator must use various on site equipment and coolant supply to maintain cooling and/or provide coolant from some off site source.

"Specifically flagged were paragraphs 27 through to 31 of the declaration, which detail the complaints the founding fathers have with King George III."

"The passage contains racist language, stating: "He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions."

Ele.me serves food to millions with Redis and MySQL on top of TiDB
I've moved about a dozen times over the last decade, and all but one rental required me to have a renter's insurance policy as part of the lease terms - most of whom also required me to list them as an interested party[1].

A renter's policy is ridiculously inexpensive for what you get. Because it only covers liability and personal property, and not the full breadth of coverage a homeowner's policy would have, it's easy to get a really comprehensive policy for less than ~$15 a month. I've only had to use my renter's policy once after a break in, and the payout for personal property coverage was more than my entire decade worth of premiums[2]. Especially if you're a techie, electronics/computing stuff[3] really starts to add up if you take a look at all the little gadgets and computers and home office[4] style stuff you have around.

[1] It basically sets it up so that your landlord gets notified of any policy changes (non-renewal, cancelations, limit changes, etc) and can know for sure that you're continually insured, and don't let the policy lapse after you've shown your proof of insurance at lease signing.

[2] Paying a few extra bucks for "replacement cost" coverage vs. "market value" coverage is well worth it. It's the difference between "here's $100 for your 5 year old MacBook Pro" and "here's $1000 to cover the replacement cost for another entry level MacBook Pro".

[3] If you have personal property replacement, you'll generally have per-category limits. If you don't explicitly request a rider for it, your e.g. $20k personal property replacement coverage may cap out electronics at $1k.

[4] If you have company-owned equipment at your house, your personal renter's policy would likely not cover it. If you work for yourself from home, your "for work" equipment is probably not technically covered under a standard renter's insurance policy, so you may want to explicitly clarify if you need a separate policy with your insurance company if you don't want to chance a claim with it getting denied.
Cool, much thanks for the detailed reply!
