During the 1990's it was believed [citation needed] that there was a limit on the amount of bomber aircraft the USSR and USA could field. Calling this aircraft a fighter made it not count towards that limit. I actually thought that this was the "well-known" explanation until stumbling upon the uncertainty in this thread.

No one has a different answer to this question.

This isn't baptism. If one group could have one answer and another group could have a different answer, there would have no need for Prop 8, et al. The conflict arose because there is only one answer to which people have entered into a state-administered legal contract.

>I've found that the white has a higher melting point than the orange, usually, so a big block of sliced white american cheese holds up well.

This is my experience as well. I still buy the yellow cheese because its lower melting point is more suitable for rapidly melting over things I want to melt it over.

Even though the theoretical shelf life may be the same regardless of packaging the block of cheese in a ziplock from the deli will go bad faster than wrapped singles, probably extra air (the same way bread in a large container goes stale faster than bread in a bag) and possibly because of a difference in preservatives. In practice singles have a much longer shelf life.

I'm sorry, this is argument (and I hate to be hyperbolic on HN) is simply laughable from both how consumers actually make purchase decisions on the whole and also from a business model.

Modern consumers have grown accustomed to leveraging collective knowledge shared on various internet sources. They watch youtube reviews, read trusted review sites, take online courses.

For example, within a few minutes you can ascertain the pros and cons of the various VR headsets available on the market. You can understand the limitations of the tech in general. All without having to rent the equipment.

Then, in my experience, after having performed research they go try the tech out or just purchase it outright.

I work in my office with the doors closed, no TV or music playing, and I choose what I'm going to work on and get started on it.

I work until I reach a goal or hit a wall and then take a short break by opening up some News or Facebook and read a bit to give my head a rest, and then either get back to where I was stuck or move on to the next step in what I'm working on.

I don't stress out over not being able to solve a problem on the first shot. If I need to look for an answer to a question or solution to a problem I don't sit there and try to figure it out on my own, I start poking around Stackoverflow or do some searching for what I need to know first.

I almost always find what I need, and in those rare cases I cannot I will ask a question wherever it's most appropriate and generally someone points me in the direction I need to go. In the meantime I'll choose something else I need to work on, generally something I know I can easily make some progress on.

I've found there is almost nothing I need to do that hasn't been done and documented somewhere and it's a waste of time to try and "resolve" things that already have a solid solution and I learn something every time I do that.

As long as I'm learning or making progress it's easy to stay focused and be productive. Those short breaks I take when I hit a wall give me a chance to come back to a problem and look at it with a fresh perspective. This way I never feel like it's impossible to overcome, or, worse yet, I'm not up to the challenge.
Might be interesting to use logic programming (for example Prolog) or some rule engine to deal with these. Put in the requirements and then ask what options are available. For example Prolog can do this via backtracking.

I was once doing research for an optimization task and found out the related term is "integer programming". Compared to linear optimization the difference is that you have integer constraints. Like the plane either flies or it does not, you can't use 0.9 of this plane and 0.1 of the other. It was also revealing to find out the problem is NP-complete, so there's no easy solution or some magical algorithm.

In your case, the proper thing might be mixed-integer programming. Setting some constraints as integers (you need to have 2 pilots, they need to be the same for the whole flights) and others like travel speed as linear.

I was checking these years ago and at least back then there was not too many open source packages for this kind of optimization. Various commercial packages did exist.
And don't forget the chicken-egg problem. People see it as a fad because the majority of games are smaller 'tech-demo' types, but of course very few companies will invest much money in something available to only 5% of the gaming market.

I've had a PSVR since release.

I don't use it all the time. It takes extra effort and energy to set up and 'get into' a VR game that sometimes I just don't want to expend. And it's a very singular experience.

HOWEVER, without a doubt it has provided some of the most amazing experiences I've ever had in gaming. Get your VR legs and play through Resident Evil 7 and Skyrim VR and tell me that it's just a gimmick. No way.

> they find that more women than men leave to start families

They're definitely justified in filtering out people (men and women) who are more likely to leave to start familier, and prefer those who won't.

This is of course a bad outcome for society, but that's how capitalism works - and if we want companies to optimize for/prefer families, then we should structure the societal incentives such.
I had a ton of fun with Valkyria Chronicles back in the day, and I’m not sure anything’s pulled of that sketched style in quite the same way.

There are tools to take a well defined format and generate pretty documentation from code. What happens in real life is that people write the bare minimum that describes the interface for the function, but not how it works or how to use it beyond a few words. And then you end up with very pretty autogenerated docs that don't help you at all.
Here is the discussion from 10 years ago (40 comments): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=333626
I came across a situation where an asset protection head at a Walmart was looking the other way while an acquaintance would dress up in a suit, and put an expensive vacuum cleaner in a shopping cart and waltz out the car departments side door minutes after it opened each morning. An employee noticed this. Asked the person for a receipt and the scam came to an end. The employee, however, got wrote up by the asset protection head!He claimed he was just about to apprehend this fellow. But Walmart quickly ended their relationship with their asset protection head(Within weeks), while NOT GOING BACK TO THE SIMPLE EMPLOYEE and admitting any wrong in his being written up. This is why when people rob these huge corporations like this, nobody should care. They don't give 2 craps about honesty or integrity. They are more worried about a thief falling down, breaking an ankle, suing them for millions, than you helping them not lose assets.

These headers can serve the same purpose: to add an extra layer of prevention, just in case. However well you may vet any 3rd-party content embedded on your pages, you cannot prevent a mistake from their side, at the very least. Let alone any outbreak of malicious code, because 3rd-parties' security is also necessarily imperfect.

A presence of such a layer additionally disincentivizes attempts to add malicious / treacherous content, because it will just not get through.

They say that good security is not like an eggshell, but like an onion.
Asian people have been discriminated against and oppressed plenty throughout (recent) history, just because the Asians in the US are doing well doesn't mean there is no discrimination - we're just seeing that minorities who come here through skilled immigration pathways tend to be more successful, but don't worry, we're cracking down on that now and you'll see the reversion to the mean occuring in Asian kids soon enough.
Permissive by default also means you have to worry about making sure that every time a new feature comes out that you have to go back and update your code to disallow it rather than updating it to be allowed only if and when you actually want to use it.

I also wonder if this will lead bad actors to scan for this header and start targeting their ads at sites that don't have this policy configured.

It really does seem incredibly poorly thought out.

Storing the AST works for a class of problems, namely whitespace issues, but a refactoring as simple as renaming a token still makes merges a mess. (And if you store a whitespace / comment decorated AST, you can still have a messy merge.)

That said, you could address that and other issues, you're just working with something several steps removed from an AST. Or you could call an AST the 90% solution.
> This statement is highly uncharitable to your interlocutor above and frankly ignorant of the history of sexual assault prosecutions in the US.

Once again, we are talking about western society today, not in history. I already acknowledged in my comment that things were different in the past.

Once again, a foreigner pushing "rape culture" rhetoric about the US and sowing divisions. Just curious, if you aren't american, why are you posting about it as if you were american?

> It is important to distinguish the high-profile Title 9/social media kangaroo courts with the workings of the actual US justice system.

I wasn't just talking about title IX or social media. I was talking about media, the courts and society in general. When a woman accuses a man of rape, she is believed and the man is scorned - even before trial. Stop trying to paint the US today as it was in the past or the congo.

Thanks again for your detailed response. I was curious to know why you choose BEAM because Golang vs BEAM is often a genuinely confusing option. Thanks for your insights on NIFs.

Additionally, as someone in this thread has already pointed out, it is also a matter of taste and preference on choosing Elixir over Golang.

A point about Elixir macros -- I think you will find that while macros increase your productivity, they make debugging the code a bit more difficult.

FWIW Black ( https://github.com/ambv/black ) is a disciplined Python formatter that's reasonably successful, so I'm not convinced that the "significant indentation" thing actually matters too much; it probably just means that formatters need to be more careful to not introduce bugs, but the same principle of code -> AST -> code seems just as valid.

What line splitting issues are you referring to? I've been pretty happy with the approach used by Prettier (and I believe Black) of fitting it on one line if possible, and doing one per line otherwise. I'd say that's my favorite part of Prettier: I don't need to think about wrapping anymore, it figures it out, so it's sad to see that gofmt doesn't do that (from my testing just now).
Yeah I'm planning to cover a bunch more sites like twitter, Reddit, imgur, etc. Time waster sites. But I'm def worried about how all these sites are adopting frameworks, cuz it makes the DOM more dynamic. I think the number of sites the plugin can cover will be a function of popularity and contributors.

Great link--thanks for posting it.
The web is an application. PSNs are a fundamental innovation. A fundamental innovation is a conceptual leap that brings about a qualitative (not quantitative) jump in capability. Before it something is simply impossible. After it that thing is possible.

The fundamental innovation was the development of the very first practical decentralized network that can achieve secure reliable consensus among minimally trusted peers. Bitcoin's way is not very efficient and may not be the only way to do it, but it proves that it's possible and shows one way it can be done.

It generally takes an absolute minimum of twenty to thirty years for something to go from lab bench prototype to mass adoption, and that's fast. 50 is more typical. Bitcoin was a lab bench prototype.

But what about the bubble? Cryptocurrency is indeed in a bubble, but it's a bubble built on radically underestimating the amount of time (and work) it will take to go from proof of concept to mass adoption. As the saying goes people tend to over-estimate progress in the near term and under-estimate it over longer spans of time.

The cryptocurrency bubble is also not very big. The numbers are huge from the perspective of an individual or a small company but from the perspective of the global economy it's the equivalent of taking a piss in the ocean. If you look at the global financial industry as the target market, cryptocurrency collectively hasn't scratched the surface. Far more money than the entire cryptocurrency valuation crosses the Atlantic and Pacific in the form of conventional wire transfers every day.

Do you find it easier to fall asleep at other times than when you choose to go to bed? It might be that you have delayed sleep phase syndrome, or (less likely) a non-24 hour sleep phase issue.

My partner is non-24 and generally manages a "normal" schedule. However, she sometimes has to roll her sleep, where she'll go to bed an average of 1.5 hours later each day, until she's back to going to bed around 10.

When she is holding her sleep schedule steady she uses light goggles in the morning (literally goggles with bright reflected lights on them) and low-dose melatonin at night (can't remember the exact dose). She also watches her meal times relative to when she wants to go to sleep. I think these things would be useful for someone without the non-24 issues, but are good sleep hygiene things.

The only difference is that now you are the TSA which again only shifted the problem. It didn't solve it.
