Hopefully false, and you need to increase that number to at least 20, more likely 30 to pay for the investment. That is very the problem lies - the risk.

Looking at the spaceflight calendar for the rest of the year, there are 6 flights where Ariane 5 could used, if you exclude all the national missions from non-EU countries. Let's round that to 10 as this does not cover all the remaining launches. So we are at a possible market of ~20 launches a year, with the current cheap prices of SpaceX. In order to justify reusability, Arianespace/Airbus would need to plan on having a 90/100% marketshare of the very competitive market, while their US competitors could benefit from quite lucrative military missions.
This proves again that software engineers have a strange understanding of kanban :)
People saying they wouldn't use git don't know git. I admit it does take investment to learn but once you are over the hump it is insanely easy and useful (yes even easier than rsync and 10x more useful). Especially when you consider that using rsync precludes your from collaborating even with one other person which is crazy easy if you use github (for example). People not using git: get over the hump, it is worth it, even on little side projects.
When you find yourself at his step 8 you don’t necessarily have to go back and fix all the sins of the past. There’s a cost to this which may or may not make sense to pay. You could simply not use the bad abstraction.
Never fear, they’re working on those, too.

3 Tips for Finding the Right VC Firm for Your Startup
Perhaps first document everything, daily, with timestamps and no emotion. Provide the documents to HR. If they side with the sociopath, then leave the company and document it on glassdoor so that others are less likely to go there.

I have been hearing the motto: "High tech shoes: low tech runner"

Not sure how accurate it might be...
> Then Trump vs Clinton came around, and it seems no one remembered that the easily hackable voting machines were even there.

Some people remembered and that was part of the reason many supported Stein's (Green Party candidate's) recounting effort. Unreliability and ability to hack those machines played a a significant role in the level of donations received and all the support.

> Any election where either electronic voting machines or electronic vote counting machines were used should not be trusted.

I mostly agree. At least it would remove the doubt and uncertainty and people can focus on other issues. So I would say have paper ballots, manual counting in addition to electronic, and add voter IDs on top of it. Voter IDs, if anything, just because it gets brought up every time, so fine, give everyone some of those. India somehow managed to do it but it ends being this contentious issue in this country which I don't quite understand.

> The use of either of these types of machines might explain why exit poll numbers and predictions have been so wildly off the mark in recent years.

Exactly. Even if there was no fraud, say that's the best case scenario. There were recounting efforts, allegations of every type, poll result discrepancies, articles, blogs, endless discussions on it. Just add up all the time, money and energy spent. It's just not worth it.
Not really. Content creators often look for middlemen to represent them. That's why they join networks that works directly with YouTube.

> only developer app on my computer that doesn't feel out of place

VS Code feels nothing like any other app on my Mac.

The window chrome doesn't look like a Mac app. Resizing a window resizes like an app from the 90s (content doesn't layout until the resize finishes, only the window border resizes live). The scroll bars aren't consistent with any other app, neither are the tabs. Scrolling content doesn't overscroll and rubberband like other scroll views.

You might personally prefer the UI in VS Code, but it is the poster child for "strange UI" on that platform.
To give you some data point with regard to enforcement, my SO has a Japanese passport and acquired US citizenship. No issues entering/leaving Japan after acquiring US citizenship. Japan technically allows only Japanese citizenship past age of 20.

I also have a friend that was born with both US and Japanese. Didn’t have to pick. However, US embassy indicates that even if you notify Japan that you pick Japanese and renounce other citizenships, it is in fact a very formal process (almost difficult) to lose US citizenship.

I used to think the same. In my experience, documenting and reporting to HR does not solve the problem. You're more likely to be further hurt and disappointed.
The fact it might make you obsolete is why you're pressured to get on board with it in the first place. Feeling it's safe to ditch it means you've figured out that it's not going to be a threat.

> I think the internet ban only happened after the fact.

That's exactly GP's point - that part of the response was to ban internet usage indicates that employee internet usage was part of the attack vector. (i.e. that one computer was probably infected through social-engineering means)
Complex numbers tell you what happens if there is an i that i^2=-1. What happens is that you get cool way to express 2d rotations.

Quaternions tell you what happens if there are three different i's that have this property. And it tells that it leads to nice algebra that expresses 3d rotations very well (and even 4d if you believe the article).

Octonions tell what happens if there are seven such i's. And it leads to cool algebra that helps expressing.... we don't quite know yet.

Also considering other numbers of i's doesn't lead to anything coherent. Also considering different possibilities of what should be the result of multiplying one i by another different i doesn't lead to anything cohesive.

So... i^2=-1 apparently can have either zero, one, three or seven solutions and they have to have very specific relationships between themselves for calculations to make sense

Curious...
I mean, it does have some great ideas. They just aren't ideas that YouTube's audience or content creators care about.

That's the irony with decentralized services.

Your entire architecture depends on people participating in it. When you make it as humanly cumbersome as possible for people to actually participate, you will not have any infrastructure.

I've seen worms and botnets that were better architected than that. Recruiting and participation were done right, and made easy ;)

Yes, some simple maths:

In the US around 1 in 1000 people will murder someone in their life. So if you scam a million people then on average you scam around 1000 murderers. Getting death threats when you make that many murderers angry should be expected and actually getting killed is not out of the question. This is not a problem with the gaming community, this is a problem with society in general.

Killing someone is of course illegal, but I wouldn't go around taunting murderers unnecessary anyway. They are provably irrational so them getting punished wont stop them while I would still be dead.
I contribute sometimes to OpenAddresses, a project to collect address data for the entire world from official sources. It's remarkable how complex the schema for addresses are and how very much hyper-local.

We're used to simple things in the United States like "123 Maple Lane" but even those addresses can be awfully complex. And then you get oddities like Portland's 0234 SW Bancroft St; the leading 0 is significant. Hawaii addresses are like "96-3208 Maile St, Pahala"

Of course it gets much more complicated internationally. India has addresses like "291, HA Block, Sector III, Salt Lake City, HA Block, Sector III, Salt Lake City, Kolkata". And much of the world doesn't have any regular address system at all, going instead by navigational systems like "third left after the banyan tree, down the road by the dairy."

Well, I'm far from being as knowledgeable as some folks on HN, but have a lot of factual knowledge about odd things. My only advice is curiosity and reading, notably about "real" subjects. That could include well written fiction. I don't plan to read about specific things, just let my brain be filled with lots of stuff.

Also when you see old people doing interesting work, talk to them if they don't mind it. At my current job, I made a point of talking with the old-timers about the technology, and gained a lot of practical knowledge that would otherwise be lost.
ARM is a well established ISA. The customization Apple might bring to the CPU architecture will make no difference to a user as long as the compatibility is there.

The problem is that as established as ARM is they really don't have a meaningful presence in the desktop/laptop ecosystem. You have probably tens of thousands of apps for the mobile space but even if Apple magically adapted them for a non-touchscreen, keyboard and touchpad world the vast majority still won't cater to the regular or professional user wanting to buy a laptop, not a glorified tablet. And that's a hard sell. Why am I buying a MacBook if all I get is an iPad with a keyboard? And don't get me wrong, having used both iPads and CoreM ultraportables (Apple or otherwise) the iPad offered the better experience more often than not. But if I compare it to the regular CPU it just can't compete. The productivity with mobile apps is not where it should be to convince a normal buyer to switch, let alone a more demanding user.

While I hope the technology succeeds I don't think it is going to be as big of a change as people think. If you are upper middle class in a large city where labour is cheap, like in some Asian countries, driving is already close to free. And while that is somewhat nice from a quality of life perspective, it also means that rush hour traffic is horrible and sitting in a car isn't much more fun just because it is cheap. Basically a car is still a car.

The "wrong" abstraction is still a nexus of control and understanding - a point you know the code will return to under certain circumstances

this is not to say that if you rollback the code and then commit tonfinding and implementing new abstractions you won't win - but the second part is necessary or you are just digging a deeper hole.

think of it as a wrapped transduction - younhave to do the second part as well.

Not to say you're wrong either, but there's been a huge shift in running: trail running is more popular than ever (or just not running on the road - see OCRs), shoes have wider toeboxes, and although minimal shoes seem to have come and gone, a neutral heel drop is pretty normal these days.

Overengineered shoes in general are not as popular: if you look at something like thruhikers on the AT or PCT, a lot of them opt for a wide-toebox, neutral heal drop trail runner over an overly built up and heavy hiking boot. I've seen thruhikers do whole sections in Crocs.

So perhaps "minimal" wasn't the right thing to focus on. But the design of the shoes have def. changed.

Nobody visits "the internet," though. People visit sites and services on the internet. People aren't going to go to PeerTube because it's decentralized. Viewers will go if there's content they want to watch, and creators will go if they can make money or they can have an audience.

I think that driving pass would be so valuable that it could corrupt any and all social institutions. The people handing them out would be demigods, imune from all forms of authority in this world other than the Holly Eternal DMV itself.

A more workable system for a free market society would be to shell out an equal endowment, say 20 driving hours a month, to all citizens. They will then chose if to sell them to the rich people or spend them to impress that special date.

Before you know it, the poorer plebs will fight the richer ones to maintain the driving voucher system, for the sake of the revenue they earn out of it.
> DNSSEC, to a degree, stands in the way of a better solution.

When no such "better solution" exists this is wishful thinking, we might make the same argument for any number of core systems and protocols.

In particular you've offered no evidence whatsoever that a system could be developed (much less _has_ been developed and thus offers a viable alternative) which avoids "blindly" trusting authoritative answers from name owners about their names...

Historically the rationale for why we can't do DNSSEC on clients is that it won't work because of middleboxes. The present topic is of course about deliberately altering clients so as to bypass middleboxes and so actually this is a world where DNSSEC works much _better_ than ever before.

Probably only in areas where parking of personal vehicles is expensive and in situations where people don't care about customizing vehicles/storing things in them. Most of the cost of a vehicle is typically miles, not time, at least if you buy them and eventually sell/trade them in. I live near a major city(though not in it) and I can't imagine getting rid of a personally owned vehicle.
Yup.

On the one hand, often there can be shared lines of code without a shared idea, this shouldn't be a candidate for being factored out into some new abstraction.

On the other hand, you may want to introduce an abstraction and factor out code into a common library / dependency / framework when there's a shared well-defined concern/responsibility.

That said, on the gripping hand, I say may because even if there's the opportunity to introduce a clean future-proof abstraction, introducing it may be at the cost of coupling two things that were not previously coupled. If you've got very good automated test coverage and CI for the new common dependency and its impact upon the places it is consumed, then perhaps this is fine. If the new common dependency is consumed by different projects with different pressures for change / different rates of change / different levels of software quality then factoring out a common idea that then introduces coupling may cause more harm than good.

Isn't that very close to the suggested solution - which is inlining the correct "duplicate" code that's necessary to solve the problem?
> We have moved towards a world of centralized services because that's what people want.

Almost there. People want INTEROPERABLE services. If that occurs because one place has a monopoly, that’s okay. If everyone can participate across any platform they choose that has the features they want (privacy, a close knit community, etc) that’s better.
I can't agree with this beyond the high-level sentiment. Perhaps the example is just not good. In the listed example the error clearly lies with programmer B who decided to extend an abstraction with a branch. That's not extending an abstraction - that's squashing 2 different abstractions into one function!
The idea is that with autonomous driving nobody needs to own a car and traffic jams are severely reduced because robots don’t drive like assholes (or at least by design shouldn’t...)

You're handwaving away things again. Other services are not relevant for this. We're not talking about them. If PeerTube gets the reputation for being the place with kiddie porn, no other creators are going to want to go there.

"Incredibly, nobody needs to be censored. "

This is flat out not true. Kiddie porn and spam, for instance.

"The offending poster can be reported to authorities and handled from there without ever having to tell a user what they can and cannot post."

Except you're still telling people what not to post. The problem is that you're not allowing for a way to prevent that in the first place.
Exactly :) - Each Transaction can have (arbitrary limit) 100 entries in Amatino.
I think even that is misleading/questionable. History is written by the people who are literate and write stuff that is both appealing to reproduce and does get reproduced. Just because a historian writes something doesn't mean it doesn't get lost or ignored, at least for a while.

> I haven’t any studies which say I’m more likely to be injured when going barefoot.

Can you cite any studies at all on the subject, even showing the converse? It's not clear why the entire burden of proof should be on one side.

> As a bare foot runner I feel judged for taking off the shoes and going for a run.

I've only been running a bit over four years, and I've seen plenty of judging from both sides. Personally, I have something that works for me, even through New England winters when barefoot simply isn't an option. If somebody half my age and half my annual mileage wants to look down their nose at me because I wear pretty standard shoes, all I can do is laugh.

I don't really get this argument. People will still want to own their own car to use whenever and whereever they want. If one currently owns a car, I don't see that this would change just because one doesn't have to drive anymore.

Cutting out the middleman (i.e. the company that wants to profit off of the ownership of the self driving car) should always be cheaper given enough usage. It's the same currently with owning a car vs Uber, Lyft or taking cabs etc.
Not a very good example, stock cars are effectively ancient in many ways compared to modern cars. For example they only started playing with (indirect) fuel injection a few years ago.
