Plenty of webdev doesn't (or at least didn't, once upon a time) involve build systems at all - with that in mind, why would a webdev need to know? Even now, what use does a frontend developer have for C++ build rules arcana when they don't even touch the language? And how many thousands of lines of msbuild rules have you written? Are you sure you're a build systems expert? :P

Granted, I'm going to be extra thorough in a code review request from a webdev dabbling in C++. Similarly, I'd hope those same webdevs would be extra thorough in reviewing my dabblings in JavaScript. Programmers have different specializations - nothing wrong with that, properly supported. Some sacrifice breadth for depth, or vicea versa, and there's nothing wrong with those choices either.

Winston Churchill. Even as recent as 1943.

Churchill: Personally, I am not greatly concerned about Russian development in China. I would rather have them develop in that way down south into India. I believe in the ultimate partition of China—I mean ultimate. I hope we shall not have to do it in our day. The Aryan stock is bound to triumph.

Churchill: I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place.

> I don't see details to indicate famine was engineered for ethnic cleansing

We have to be careful to view this from the broad system level perspective. We have individuals like Churchill who expressed a clear racial belief system. A belief system where they believed, and even directly stated it was their manifest destiny to extinguish inferior races. In their positions of power, through intentional actions (and alleged inactions), they caused large numbers of their prey/victims to die. Should we attribute that to "capitalism was working as intended" or should we actually call a spade a spade and recognize that these men had agency and did these things consciously or at best sub-consciously to achieve lebensraum for their preferred race.
"Clementines"[1] are a fruit related to oranges that are commonly sold in grocery stores where I live, but the country they are sourced in varies. I've found the best ones seem to be from Portugal or Spain.

This isn't even about private/encrypted communication, it's effectively about social media being used to direct mobs. From what I'm told, unlike most of the western world, it is common for mobs to violently target individuals in India for various reasons. WhatsApp just happens to be very popular in India, honestly this presentation by NY Times is titled like a hit piece, or the justifications of somebody who has such low expectations of the people involved that they'd blame the tool they choose to communicate instead.

Relaxation comes in small spurts, like getting your head above water, so suck in as much air as you can whenever it happens and live in the moment until the river sweeps you away again.

Beyond that seriously try meditation or yoga or whatever. You can slowly learn to "choose" to be relaxed here and there, but yea no more relaxing beach vacations for you! At least for a little while.

Thanks for starting this thread!

Outlawing normal human behavior has never worked in the past, and it's unlikely to start working now.

That’s what you actually said, and what I responded to. The normalcy of a behavior isn’t an argument in its favor, goalpost movement aside.
How does this compare to telegraf?
>Among other things it requires me to provide info about [...] and every email address I've used during the last 5 years.

Decentralization smears the cost over time and space as constant cost to everyone and constant small failures everywhere. Centralization concentrates it into smaller spaces and larger but rarer failures.

Who lobbies for our awful travel system? I mean, of course there's a large contingent of Americans who are xenophobic and nationalist, but such pseudo-fascist bureaucratic red tape doesn't come into being unless powerful entities who stand to benefit from the bureaucracy take advantage of the populist zeitgeist to bend political will to their favor. Who gains power by arbitrarily rejecting random Swedes' visas and ultimately chilling international intrapersonal relationships and flow of culture?

To be honest, if your database has decent queuing facilities, it isn’t a bad programming strategy to use the database as a tuple space for piranha processes. You don’t run afoul of corporate architecture teams for using ‘new’ software and you can devolve a lot of business processes into small, independent programs. It also provides an easy way to upgrade parts of your software by freezing a queue table for reads but not writes.

This is why design agencies are still in the business of churning out trendy, derivative UI design work and why UX researchers get stuck testing the usability of these offerings (in house or out). As someone with an HCI degree who loves designing, it sucks I have to either be all design or all research. There are few roles that let you practice both. What are your thoughts on the matter? What did you do with your degree? Research or design or both?
Wasn't aware that Swedes needed visas to visit the U.S, wonder why that is.

I’ve been thinking about what it is about vacations that’s so relaxing since it’s clearly not the lack of work.

You live without a crap load of clothes that need to be washed. You have maids to clean your room. The kitchen staff washes the dishes

Huh? I think you're confused here. Washing clothes, cleaning your room, washing the dishes, and fixing leaks is work. Vacation is exactly having less work.

Why, submerged dwarka is more important to Hindus than all those forts.
It boils down to one thing: how does the spread of misinformation compare to the spread of a correction?

Every subscriber of a traditional newspaper will see their corrections, often published the next day.

How does Instagram/social media compare? In my experience, it doesn't. I've never seen a correction come through anonymous social media channels.
That’s certainly a big problem, but there are plenty of people who are able to vote but don’t bother because they feel like nobody represents them.
If you're not arriving by land from Canada or Mexico, you need to at least have an ESTA, even if you're from a US-friendly Western country. If you're denied an ESTA (as in this case) you have to go through the regular visa process. This applies to Swedes, Brits, Australians...
Irrelevant to the main point. Since you're being childish I'll explain again.

Maybe we should consider it's no longer 1988. All manner of bad practices resulted in at least some good outcomes, but we nevertheless stopped.
They do only when their ESTA applications are denied, as in his case. ESTA applications in turn were not required a few years ago.

That's because the US has an insidious, persistent, and wide-spread strain of anti-intellectualism. I can think of no time prior to college outside my home when being smart was actually considered "cool". In the US, "cool" is bossing other people around, and smart people get in the way of that. It's why Presidents like GWB purposefully put on a "dopey" persona, and it works.

When I first heard "boffin" I too thought it was derogatory, because, why would someone use a slang term to describe someone as smart if it wasn't in a snarky or derogatory manner?
Don't worry, iTerm does native fullscreen by default.

I think this is a very common misconception. DHS and USCIS aren't idiots; they can tell there's a world of difference between a former Soviet republic(e.g. KZ,KG,UZ,etc) and other -stan countries. Also, the US maintains the fairly extensive diplomatic staff in those states. Lastly, if you were to apply for a Green Card, while holding an H1-B, you would get it years before an Indian or Chinese national due to the quota system. I would imagine it should be also easier for people like you to get the Green Card through the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program.
Administrative processing (a euphemism for a security background check) often takes multiple months. This happens regularly to engineers and students from places like China or Iran. It can easily take half a year. I'm sure it feels Kafkaesque, but it's not unusual or exceptional.
A better way to do this would be to have the news related by keywords so that various topics were displayed in their related (but very different) reporting based on bias.
If you compare ‘Meritor Savings Bank v. Vinson’ to these cases the trend is much less extreme situations having significant repercussions. Which eventually hits more CEO’s becase their simplicity are fewer CEO’s of major organizations and thus fewer CEO’s committing extreme over the top acts. Aka more cases of comments than inappropriate touching, more touching than grouping, and more grouping than rape.

However the impact of CEO’s vs the 1000’s of lower level managers is less in that they directly impact fewer people even if they have oversight over large organizations.

As to removal over time that’s extremely sensitive when dealing with CEO’s so the bar has been rather high. Still you can find cases 10+ years ago.
I would say you're using the closest (not really) comparison
If you are interested in tuple spaces then I recommend reading David Gelernter’s “Mirror Worlds: or the Day Software Puts the Universe in a Shoebox...How It Will Happen and What It Will Mean” and any Jini documentation you can get.
That's why few people are using things like parinfer.

I don't think this is true. I develop Cursive and I use it, despite being competent at paredit. A ton of my users do too, even experienced ones. It's just easier, and it turns out that a lot of editing is actually line based, even in a lisp. And when it's not, I can still use the paredit commands in parinfer mode, at least with Cursive.

It's referenced in an edit to noctuid's document, but many of those criticisms are no longer valid since smart mode became the de-facto default for parinfer. It's now really intuitive. Parinfer's worst problem now is its difficulty inferring parens when there are multiple expressions on a line (i.e. when there's no indentation to infer from), but it's surprising how infrequently that's actually a problem.
Your position is that anonymous, unregulated, uncredentialed, "non-profit" social media accounts are more reliable than conventional news?

Everyone has some biases... but I know which entity is more trustworthy. The one that stands by their name in public.
Bizarre. Linux must already have some kind of "database" system for keeping track of system resources. At best, the claim would be that Linux is using an inefficient database, which seems unlikely.
The solution doesn't have to be ditching 3rd parties as these can create great shopping value. Amazon should create a hurdle that keeps scammers away. While obvioudly there are better solutions than my off the cuff comment you could for example require a significant deposit for new sellers which is lost on sale of fake goods. Or payment terms are 120 days until you reach X reputation (supplier or item) allowing for full refunds to customers and zero payment to suppliers should fakes show up.
Seems to me that the visa-free program should be expanded to include more VWP countries. Not sure how much risk we'd incur from accepting Icelanders sans ESTA.
Like RF design: some science but mostly trial-and-error "art."

Even this is work, though. Hiring help is almost as bad as doing it yourself; they need to be endlessly managed between when they'll arrive/ depart, the scope of work, particularities about how to do the work, etc.
No, not really. I do tend to keep personal information off social media sites, but I don't go back and delete content. Honestly, I think it's more annoying when people do that, and I'd rather leave discussions and references intact that remove this stuff.

IANAL but ESTA is not a work permit [1], and if you were going to San Francisco for an all-hands meeting at your employer, then that sounds like work?

Immigration laws have largely been unchanged for decades and are severely out of touch as a result. Nobody with actual power (i.e. Congress) wants to touch immigration as it's a politically charged subject. Politics is ugly in the US nowadays, everybody knows this but it's hard to break out of the deadlock.
I dunno about TSA, but I'm am Indian male and I keep a beard and visited Sydney and Melbourne recently. I was singled out for "random" checks at every single airport. Even though the metal detector thing didn't go off at all. They were very nice and polite but I was a bit annoyed. After 9-11, it seems most western countries have become cautious to the extent of paranoia and cause inconvenience to normal people.

Not if you don’t consider it social media. Which I don’t.

If anything , given the average level of discourse here, I’d say this is anti-social media.
Be careful about taking excessively literal meanings. It would be ridiculous to say murder should be legalized, and you should interpret what you read in the context of a reasonable interpretation. That is, if you're interested in something other than simply arguing with people.
It used to be you can click "Amazon Prime" and get a reputable seller...but now I guess you gotta click on "Sold by Amazon". I hope they don't commingle Amazon's stuff with 3rd party sellers...

If so...I'm just going to buy name brand items in stores and get a price match.
But he remembered this one and is saying he won’t list it.
I’ve owned 3 tr-808s in my life. I currently own one. I can confirm that each one sounds different. I’ve samples from each one. The first 2 I owned were from later in the production run. There are 2 distinct revisions of tr-808s. The early models had a shorter higher pitched snare sound and later models were a lower pitch deeper snare. My current 808 is an early revision with the high pitched snare. My current 808 has the weakest clap of the three I’ve owned.

I mention all of this to make a few points.
1- I don’t doubt that these rejects contribute to the sound in a very specific way. But I don’t think it is impossible to build an 808 that would not fool even the most seasoned experts.

2- the 808 was not exactly a hit product. The “we ran out of parts” line sounds to me like a great way to revise what the real truth of the matter is- it wasn’t selling since sampled drum drum machines like the Lynndrum/Oberheim DX/sequential drumtraks were in far greater demand.
Most people at the time thought the 808 was terrible sounding. It soon was widely available at thrift shops and used gear racks for 10-20% of its original 1000$ price. Ad rock of Beastie Boys fame mentions in an interview that he went to Rogue Music in NYC to get a rickenbacker guitar but instead found a used 808 for 250 bucks around 1984 or 1985. Since the tr909 was released in 84 or so with a focus on sounding more realistic, I don’t think parts availability is the real reason.

3- there are solid clones available that are 100% analog and approach if not hit 100% accuracy in the sound. The Yocto kit when assembled competently is pretty much a 1:1 copy. Behringer has a forthcoming rd-808 that is analog and from the videos sounds the business.

4- the modeled 808 in the Tr08/tr8/Roland cloud 808 is in the ballpark but the cymbals snare and clap are the weakest parts of the modeling. I would say those pass the 5 minute quick listen test but once you spend time with them you realize it’s not right in an annoying way. If anyone wants to read more about the tr-808 a me Robin Whittle has done some amazing work documenting the circuits, explaining how they work and gives instructions on modifying them. Now that these machines are 30 years old, I hope people don’t mod them and focus on preserving them at this point- especially considering that there will soon be cheap Behringer copies to mod.

Finally just want to say it’s great to see this kind of stuff on hn. I could write long winded comments on this stuff all day long.

> DHS and USCIS aren't idiots; they can tell there's a world of difference between a former Soviet republic(e.g. KZ,KG,UZ,etc) and other -stan countries.

I am a white and Christian European, the sort of person who generally does not get much scrutiny when traveling internationally. Yet quite often when I fly into the USA, the mood of the Customs and Border Patrol officer changes markedly when he notices that I have a Kazakhstan tourist visa in my passport. Since the officer is not allowed to ask you right out “Are you Muslim?”, I once got the indirect question “Did you travel to this country because you sympathize with the belief system of its inhabitants?”

I would hope that DHS staff in offices vetting visas are more knowledgeable about the world, but it wouldn’t surprise me at all if they weren’t.
I wonder what would come out of Daniel filing a FOIA request about himself to CBP. FOIA is a nice law in that "any person" (as written in the statute) has standing to file a request, regardless of relationship to the U.S.

Odoo, formerly OpenERP, kind of went all private. I think they still post the source code, but it’s just...not as open. Reminds me of the path Docker took / is taking.
What I'd like to see (or find, perhaps it's out there) is something that's based more on triggering loops and samples (with optional processing) as opposed to synthesis.

Earsketch sort of looks like what I'm looking for, but it's web only and I can't much get it to run?

I've been in the EV world for a while now. We used to do 100-200kW drive systems where motor+inverter would be 90-94 percent efficient. Adding a single stage gear to that would cost another 1-2 percent efficiency loss.

The whole time I was reading this I kept thinking we could throw 100 electric vehicle drives on a giant ring gear for a total mass under 10k-tons with no super conductors or anything too fancy. The problem is that the EV systems are not rated for continuous operation at higher power levels. You only use full power for acceleration - driving even at highway speeds doesn't take that much. OTOH one would expect good airflow in a wind application.

I think there might be room for a change of approach in the wind turbine area.
Somewhere I should still have an old JavaSpaces book I picked up specifically because I found tuplespaces such a compelling idea. I’ve tried to find a good way to use it over the years, but it’s never quite matched any problem I was trying to solve.

I seriously considered it as a way to share monitoring events between various systems that might be interested in consuming them: logging, billing, alerting, etc.
This kind of contact makes no sense!! Even an iPhone has alternate vendors for every external part used, how can the Pentagon award it to a single vendor?

They need to pick 3, in my opinion, and make the 3 constantly compete against one another for higher shares in profits and revenues - you know - an open market
