So as long as the phone is able to provide data about your location, browsing habits, emails, music preference, searches, etc. Google will never care if it's a cheap one.

User data of users with money is more valuable than data of users without. Of course Google cares about the price of the phone because it’s very closely correlated with how much disposable income the user has. It’s exactly the same reason app developers prioritize iOS even though it has a minority share and those developers of course never see a penny of the purchase price of the phone. iOS users are worth more because they spend more on devices AND services.

I think you and a lot of other commentators on this are letting your paranoia cloud your judgement. The concepts are not difficult to grasp.
This isn't a useful distinction unless you can reliably identify the flaw before the negative impact of LSD.

Ok, I can see where you're coming from. You are wishing a standing president would do a good thing. It's a nuanced way to form an argument or ideal because the leaders have become so politically charged (imagine trying to promote any idea to a left-wing audience and tying in Trump, most would shut their brains off and attack the messenger which isn't so different than what happened here).
Take it up with Rubin. He seems to have had a different understanding. And he was the one negotiating with carriers for a long time.

And while I wasn't "in the room", Rubin said it himself in multiple interviews: he wanted to make an open source OS, not with access to source in order to appeal to exactly what the carriers wanted.

In fact every time Rubin talked about this he referred to Android as it was since its phone OS inception as open. It's always "his idea to create an open source OS for phones".

I'll just assume that one of you is embellishing his story. And in all honesty it could be either way, founder stories tend to get beautified over time.

The abstract specifically says that no new physics resulted from the movie-making process:

"There are no new astrophysical insights in this accretion-disk section of the paper, but disk novices may find it pedagogically interesting, and movie buffs may find its discussions of Interstellar interesting."
The existence of undiagnosed disorders and the potential presence of effective coping skills/supportive stable home environment/unstressed personality/late-onset symptoms would preclude reliance on prior indicators of determining fitness for a given psychedelic.

Family histories are not always clearly diagnosed. That hypothetical uncle you've never met and no one talks about? Unknown mental health flag.

Self-diagnosis of a mental/emotional state that calls for drug-taking is itself a clue that not all is so normal in the individual's mind--or is it something wrong in the world the person wants to relate to better? Who can know but the one supposedly experiencing an unnaccepted state?
Observing/deciding/dosing by the selfsame suffering/diagnosing/tripping individual sounds risky, because if the downside is a long future of some degree of insanity, it is only a variety of Russian Roulette.

To allow scientific studies, fund them, possibly create therapies is to also conquer the stigmas involved in substantial ways and that process is tectonically, multi-generationally slow (or impossible).

Copyright is created in the constitution. Once granted, it is a constitutionally protected property right. Equal protection and first amendment “control” but so does copyright. All must be given effect.

To use a different example: the government makes a law establishing yor back yard as a polling place for federal elections. Surely, you agree that peoples’ right to vote cannot to be vindicated if they can’t freely access polling locations. But that doesn’t mean that you are obligated to let everyone onto your property! The law is the problem, and the government is at fault for failing to ensure that polling locations are publicly accessible.
Yeah, some are bogged down in politics and dominated by a few Methuselah with ego problems, but I've played plenty and those are in the minority and stick out like sore thumbs. Keep away from MUDs that take themselves too serious and you're good. Or look out for freshly established ones.
Aardwolf would be one example with a very friendly population. Gamewise it's a hodgepodge of creative writing and doesn't follow any strong guidelines.
it's a nice OS, friendly community.

It's very easy to build and modify everything, it doesn't hide errors under a rug (syslog messages are legible, coredumps not disabled by default and so on), so I feel like I can tackle any problem I encounter on it.

Also, if you're the type that carries their long .xinitrc/.Xresources/.profile around, it's more comfortable than the friendly linuxes which require you to re-do everything but in dconf.
Thoughts on Compile-Time Function Evaluation and Type Systems
So it’s not enough that Google has given anybody that wants to compete in mobile a head start 80% of the way to a finalized product. They have to bring them up to 99% now? Sorry but decent maps, mail, and browser are just table stakes to the game. If you can’t develop those yourself you don’t have an “OS”, just a lazy rebranding of Android. At least Microsoft tried a little harder than that.

We've updated the title from “Intel Pulls MacOS Version of Power Gadget”. It's fine to mention what might be of interest to other readers, but in the comments please.
I’m going to predict that they release a new version for macOS that includes a bug fix for the latest generation of processors. It will fix inaccurate readings. The new version will “correctly” show the flat line instead of the spikes.

Then again it could also just be related to reports of it causing some macs not to be able to reboot after install. The only fix was booting safe mode and manually removing the kernel extension.

Bitwig Studio 2.3.5 Crack and Keygen 2018 Full Free Download
I know this isn't what you're asking, but I want to give a shout-out to personal kanban. My husband and I use a post-it+whiteboard Kanban board at home for household/personal tasks, and it revolutionized our life. We have five categories: Backlog, To do, In progress, Blocked, and Done.

We jokingly do retros every couple weeks to clear everything off the Done column and give each other feedback like "I really like how you insulated those pipes, keep it up!" The retros are completely unnecessary (except for fun), but the kanban board is life-changing: we don't have to nag each other anymore, because you can just look at the board to see what's queued up to get done. It completely eliminated a lot of unnecessary friction between us.
Fascinating Illustration of Deep Learning and LiDAR Perception in Self
The relationship between the studios and disc renters has gone back and forth over the years. The time of news around Redbox seems to have been about 10 years ago [1] when DVD sales were supposedly starting to decline significantly.

I'd be a bit surprised if it were an issue to the same degree today where video is often available for streaming rental (and on things like airline entertainment systems) before retail discs even go on sale.

And I don't know the latest numbers but Redbox revenue was (unsurprisingly) declining sharply as of a year or so ago and Netflix is letting its DVD back catalog rot to the point where it's almost not worth it.

The parallel to the fall of the Soviet Union is interesting. The state slowly ran out of money, and couldn’t pay the military complex, including the army. The army’s loyalty to the leadership essentially disappeared, and then the empire fell.

Also note that the militaries of Burma or Venezuela are always well provided for, even when the people are repressed or starving. I feel successful dictators have an instinctual grasp of this relationship.
ReLU's pretty trivial; I hope nobody tried to publish a paper about that.

Fuck Netflix. I am indian. Netflix runs left's propoganda. Lately, they are coming up with shows and movies in India that have hypersexuality. India is largely monogamous society. Netflix is promoting hookup culture and sex/voilence in India. Men in the US are turning into cuckolds in large droves. Netflix is responsible for cultural appropriation and driving political correctness.

Bollywood is already terrible. Shows like this set a race for hyper sexuality and deranging our cultural values. Fuck Netflix.

You people in the US appreciate it because you don't mind voilence and you are okay to marry women irrespective of their sexual history and how slutty they are. Your view of are always of purity irrespective of how wrong they are. One reason why many culture thieved in India is strong value to family stru cture. Netflix is doing a great damage with such shows and movies like lust stories that encourages women to sleep around. Again, Fuck Netflix.

Additionally, it’s not windows, not MacOS, and not Linux. It’s difficult to escape those in day-to-day computing, so my daily driver (thinkpad laptop) is slightly different on purpose, the idea being that, to a degree, everything I do is necessarily very “conscious”. What I mean is that nothing works automatically because I’m part of a vast majority. Where I run into friction, I try to take note and keep this in mind with the rest of my relationship with the world, whether it’s developing software, or making assumptions about the way people use computers.

I cannot find the author of the quote, nor the quote itself, but it was something like this:
"You should take psychedelics and then work hard to experience the same, but without psychedelics itself".

I remember one guy posting about his experience with psychedelics and then with long period of yoga and meditation. Interesting thing was, that he described something similar. On psychedelics it was as if you would take a jet plane and got somewhere really fast. Yoga and meditation, on the other hand, take you same place but you have a time to look around during the process. It takes a lot of time, though, but also is safer.

Interesting may be combining meditation and yoga with microdosing, which should still keep you on the safe side.

We organize our columns in Trello around our scrum process. Our Proposed column is called the Wish Heap. It's where stories go before they're groomed (titled as user story, acceptance criteria defined, sized) and added to the Backlog column (or To Do) ready for work.

First rule I try to get everyone in the org to follow: all work done by devs has a card. A dev gets approached by a manager who just needs one quick thing done, shouldn't take more than 5 minutes: "That's great. Can you throw it on the Wish Heap or talk to the scrum master?"
How do you reconcile your view of Assange with these facts:

Rinderpest was an infectious disease of cattle, which was eradicated slightly more recently. A cattle disease might seem like a weird priority, but for marginal cattle farmers in poor nations your cows dying basically means very likely you'll starve. So in effect we wiped out one cause of poor people starving to death.

It really shows the non-liberal bias here at HN that the above comment has more down than up votes. Because if you are liberal, there is statement concerning Assange that is more true.
At this point, I don't even care if the charges against him are true or not. He can go rot in prison. Whatever his fucking agenda is, his actions during the election are indefensible. If the CIA took him to a black site and he was never heard from again, it's be too soon still and no one would miss him. Due process really isn't necessary when you know someone is guilty but the appearance of such must be upheld even for tyrants let alone for scum like Julian.
Counter argument is the suite of tests he used were optimised for the i7 and not the i9 [1].

What I found interesting is that the paper claims they use the mechanism internally for a bunch of relational DB features:

"Lastly, our rule system can provide database services such as views, protection, integrity constraints, and referential integrity simply by applying the rules system in particular ways. Consequently, no special purpose code need be included in POSTGRES to handle these tasks."

Is that still the case or, considering the Rule Manager is not recommended, has it been replaced for internal services?

I remember Stonebraker's Turing Award Lecture, where he talks about their attempt at an "ALWAYS" command not working, so I was wondering whether the Rule Manager talked about here is that thing that didn't work or the thing they replaced it with.

Looking at the talk again, he says that they figured out ALWAYS wouldn't work around 86-87[1] and this paper is 88, so I am guessing this is the replacement.

This is an idiosyncratic opinion to say the least.

2C-E, 2C-B, and 2C-I are what they are, single compounds, just as LSD-25 is. They are phenethylamines, related to mescaline, the substance for which the term "psychedelic" was coined.

They are synthetic, as is LSD, and have a wide therapeutic index. Being less potent by weight, it is easier to measure a specific dose than with LSD, which is commonly put on paper or taken in liquid form.

Getting "puddled" from a bottle of LSD is a more likely route to a psychotic episode than anything 2C-I or 2C-B have to offer; 2C-E is a different beast.

It's fine that you have these opinions, I guess. It's just that most of them are wrong and I wouldn't want others to be mislead.

Can you give an example in Obama's political tenure when he had ever done anything consistent with that sentiment or that strategy?

Politically, Obama's heroes are the progressives of the Wilsonian and Roosevelt era. Wilson jailed Eugene Debs for sedition, and ironically it took the era's conservative firebrand (H L Mencken) rabble-rousing about it in exactly that spirit and eventually Harding (not exactly a socialist) commuted Debs' sentence.

For that matter: Can you think of an example when any politician or political figure in power in the US in recent memory has done something like that? I'm not comprehensively knowledgeable about US politics, but the only one I can think of is Clarence Thomas voting against the majority in Texas V Lawrence, where he said he was opposed to laws forbidding gay sex, but he didn't think the supreme court should rule on it, and he would vote to strike down the law if he were in the Texas State Legislature.
From what I can tell, wild Polio cases have been in the low double digits the past couple years. Hopefully it will be gone by the end of next decade.

What's your evidence that those people are worse off having taken the psychedelics? You can't know the counterfactual isn't that those people who respond poorly to the drug would have had a similar mental break without it. Until the drug is studied rigorously all we have to go on are conflicting anecdotes. That said in the face of a lack of reliable information caution is warranted.

The problem with that is that, while yes it means that performance can be improved (faster rendering times, more computations per second etc.) it doesn't change the thermal issues at all with the particular implementation from apple.
> But I really doubt that you can use an xHCI controller through EHCI drivers.

Indeed, you can't. xHCI subsumes all USB operation and doesn't need companion controllers, but presents a _very_ different interface. That's different from the USB1/2 transition where USB2 was a separate controller that could take over the ports from a USB1 controller, giving them back if a USB1 device is attached.

Some boards/chipsets do that with EHCI and xHCI to support operating systems without xhci drivers, but that's getting rarer.
This might be a dumb question, but does anyone know how to "blackbox" the files that are not in working dir while debugging Node with VSC?

I don't concur. A few examples:

I was working on a iOS App that connects to a GraphQL API. All GraphQL are POSTs. POSTs aren't cacheable. I had to implement a client-side cache. Implementing a cache, understanding the pros/cons of an implementation, is an exercise in CS.

I was implementing an animation. I drew the animation out on graph paper and worked out the transformations using stuff I learned in my linear algebra and computer graphics classes.

And in general, thinking through the tradeoffs of Swift vs Objective-C or REST vs GraphQL or Ruby vs Elixir, etc, etc is an exercise in CS.

Unfortunately, we seem to live in a cargo cult world. Good enough for Facebook/Google/Etc? Good enough for us. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I want to say that a lot of these kind of gems still hide in the corners of the internet. There are both awesome and horrible things going on in VR chat, for instance.
Traditionally there are three political groups:
conservatives, liberals and socialists.

"Far-left" falls under socialism, along with anarchism and communism. The idea that ties them together is this concept of trying to fight against and eliminate some hierarchy in society. Often times, wealth inequality. There is no such thing in the US.

To say that you are a liberal far-left is indeed a misuse of terminology.

Fascism falls under conservatism along with monarchism and any other traditionalist or reactionary political ideology. Standing opposed to "the left", the chief idea that ties all these ideologies together is that some hierarchal structures are beneficial to society.

Interesting to note that Republicanism is a liberal ideology, not a conservative one. Liberalism is a much more well defined ideology than the other two. Briefly speaking: "all men are created equal" (hence Republicanism), small government and free markets and capitalism.

I am genuinely surprised by the amount of positive comments here about Assange. It is clear that at a bare minimum he was used as a tool by Putin to sway politics in the US and is it seems likely he was a willing and active participant in that plan. For people who still view Assange positively, do you simply not care about that fact or do you just think the good outweighs the bad?

EDIT: This comment is currently sitting at -3 points. I couldn't care less about the points, but it shows that at least four people have found problems with this question. Is it too much to ask that you engage in a conversation if you think this question is ridiculous?
