I go on live-leak once every few months and watch questionable material. Things like OSHA incidents, fatal freak accidents, war,gopro adrenaline videos, etc. I find I need to remind myself that I am lucky and grateful for the life I have, and to take safety seriously. I also do this to build willpower and fearlessness in many things, because I would have seen it already once. So when something imminent does happen I have natural instincts to do whats needed

When you realize you have a higher chance of dying in a car accident than a flight things are put in perspective. You won't have a choice in either case anyhow, shit just happens. Accept that some things are out of your control and you take a gamble at everything you do in life. Not everyone wins.
I agree in theory. However, I haven't noticed the slowness in their website and the ads are well done and blend in with the webpage. They may have to redesign/rearchitect their whole website to get what you are asking for.

It should be noted that traditional newspapers include ads alongside news content and no one complains. In fact people used to sift through the Sunday NYT simply for the ads.

DDR4 is an example case that's just not well automated yet. We've got the road map sketched out but it hasn't been a priority.

We're optimizing our development for features that make us immediately more productive at designing boards. Thus far that has been things like solvers for power supplies and automated component selection. The special case stuff will come later, when it becomes a bottleneck.
I just consider the pilot's point of view. They fly much more, and actually have control in the case of a safety concern.
They call that "engagement".
At this point we're just trying to formalize the functional requirements of circuit board design. There are many options to making this more programmatic. The easiest way is just to have a script that generates these input specs. The more desirable way is to embed the input spec into a programming language ala EDSL. Also, remember that with an interactive dual view interface, you can make adjustments to the input spec and see the visual results on the circuit board quickly. This gives the best of both worlds. We are using such an interface internally to design packages, symbols, and boards.
Without anything [obvious] to indicate what is wrapped up in "Other," that would seem to be a ranking of US-based, primarily-English language sites.
The sales job Amazon et al did in convincing the world resilience was the job of app developers, not the system vendor, was quite impressive. And while it's true that commodity folks could stand to learn from mainframe folks - serverless looks quite a lot like a forty years on re-invention of CICS if you squint a bit - your story reminds me how profoundly true the opposite is, as well.

I've been part of a team that ran Linux on s390x, and it was a great exercise in demonstrating that however reliable your mainframe, it's still a SPOF. Even if you don't have my bad luck of four catastrophic hardware failures in as many years, your one reliable box still depends on the power, network fabric, storage fabric, etc at a single site. If you want to avoid losing your business when a sparky screws up, you need... several mainframes. At which point you're spending an absolutely astronomical amount to either sysplex, or you're building resilience into your applications, just like a bitty box.

And yes, so many mainframe folks are so very out of touch with the broader world. In around 2016 I had the supposed regional tech expert on z-Series system lecture me (rather snidely) on how:

1. s390 processors were 20 - 40 times more performant that Intel processors (demonstrably not true for any workload I cared about).
2. You could not do virtualisation on x86_64. It was impossible. With a straight face, in the year 2016, this guy told me, and clearly believed, that it was not possible to run heterogenous virtualised workloads on an Intel processor. Apparently tens of billions of Jeff Bezos' net worth literally did not exist for him.

There was more, but it was like talking to someone who had been frozen in a block of ice since 1996.

In fact it’s antithetical to freedom of expression to require relay, because then you’re just dictating what a private entity can do in regards to their own expression. It comes from the same dark and ignorant place as people who want to see “Intelligent Design” taught alongside evolution. I doubt that the people who espouse this view believe it’s intellectually honest either, they just want their way and will say whatever it takes. Just like Creationists will do and say anything. (And have over 70 years) to get their way, even adopt some of the form of rational debate, without the substance.

This is such a great term. I never thought about it before or how it could relate to our definitions of intelligence and ability in science/tech. So many generic tests for intelligence that perhaps there should be more focus on this area.
FWIW i'll echo StavrosK experience with PSP (which i used since Windows 3.1 up until PSP7 well into my early 20s... although i distinctly remember disliking it after a specific version - probably 7 - because its circle tool wasn't making perfect circles anymore) and to a lesser extent, WinAmp - and i've tried both again recently. Even though i use GIMP for many years, i still consider the MDI interface, dockable toolbars and the use of the right button as a secondary tool much easier to use than GIMP (which after using it for more than a decade i also know very well and have developed an intuition for how to do stuff with it). Note that i also find Photoshop's (and Photoshop inspired, like Krita's) UI to also be inferior to PSP.

I'm not that particular about Winamp's exact interface, but i vastly prefer audio players with a compact layout that is made up by an area displaying the current song, a slider for seeking, play, pause, stop, prev, next buttons and a floating playlist you can change and hide on the fly.
The 55 cents a mile is for an "average" car, with "average" mileage driven an "average" number of miles per year. The problem is that cars don't depreciate just on mileage, but on age too.

So dramatically increasing the number of miles you drive per year reduces the actual total cost per mile. Using fleet management services and having deals directly with the manufacturer, as well as buying in bulk will generate huge savings, particularly since you almost wipe out the dealer fee.
I actually see this market much harder to protect (assuming self driving becomes a solved problem).

With Uber, as it is today, you have the strong forces of a network effect (where drivers are stuck because the passengers are there, and the passengers are stuck because the drivers are there). This effect is historically very difficult to break, a canonical example would be craigslist.

While rolling out self driving cars, simply requires money. If for example, San Francisco has 1000 Uber drivers active at any time today, all you need is to roll out 1000 cars yourself in the city, and the service you provide is equivalent to Uber.

In other words, if self driving technology becomes common, the market is going to be commoditized to the point where there is very little profit margin for any player (such as in the airline industry).
> Microsoft paved a gilded path for application development that points AWAY from the Windows platform. Yes, there is novelty and a definite technical achievement there that one can appreciate. But I choose to focus on the motives rather than the technical achievement, and I am disturbed by what I perceive is Microsoft's capitulation in the consumer software/platform arena.

Most paths support two-directional travel. The ancient adage that "all roads lead to Rome" seems to apply. Rome built a lot of roads to travel away from Rome, but nearly everyone realized that all of those roads also lead back to Rome. That does seem to be something of an intent in Microsoft's strategy here: if Windows is great at reaching users where they are, then Windows is great at bringing users back.

WSL makes it extremely easy to build on/with/for Linux, without leaving Windows. It worked for Macintosh to bring BSD users to Macintosh. It seems to working for Microsoft that WSL has given an option for previously Mac-or-Die web developers to give Windows a second chance. There have been plenty of headlines here on HN of previously Mac-only users delighted by new Surface devices. Obviously anecdotal evidence, but signs do seem to point that new roads are leading to Rome.

Corel had made it available via Jasc's FTP server for free a number of years back when I went looking for it again.

I check every now and then, but I've never found anything nearly as useful. Other software seems to have a much reduced feature set, be extremely slow or unstable, and maddeningly, not offer any control over individual frames.

It's possible there's something in the Adobe suite, but I (alone, of seemingly everyone on the Internet) never pirated Photoshop, and wasn't willing to fork out the asking price.
I was confused as to how you could represent a bootable CD image in printable characters. It turns out that you can't. This is a tweet of a perl script which creates a cd.iso file that you can then boot from. The perl script significantly decompresses the data in the tweet.

That said, this is a playable game in around 60 bytes of actual data which is impressive.

Russian elections are a massive fraud fest at this point, so their results are meaningless for any purposes.

Now, it's true that the majority still supports the government. But it's nowhere near as overwhelming as the elections would let you believe (think 50% rather than 80%). And, of course, this still means that there are literally millions of people who 1) are Russian, and 2) don't support it.

I've already started seeing some rhetoric on the left that is explicitly invoking McCarthy in a positive way. That's not a good sign. Please dial it down.
I recommend noise-cancelling headphones and ambient music. Ambient music is non-intrusive by design so it doesn't interfere with your workflow as much as more 'active' music.
If a truly large archive were found then who’s to say that it could survive long enough to be properly studied? There are multiple sources of untouched ancient texts today which aren’t much studied. Off the top of my head, I’ve heard there are chests full of (roughly 1000-year-old) Arabic manuscripts littering the Archbishop’s palace in Toledo, largely untouched due to a lack of interest/number of scholars (and perhaps it is hard to get access). There are also many manuscripts spread out across private basements in Timbuktu, those have survived several threats but who’s to say they will survive more? On the other hand we have hundreds of thousands of cuneiform tablets, most of which are unread (they had the advantage that when a library burns down the tablets are often fired instead of destroyed). It is hard to decide what is worth prioritising before it has been read.

The one solace we can take is that modern techniques may let us read manuscripts after they have been largely destroyed.
How I made $18k on CodeCanyon

I'm sure I am more consciously aware of the bloat but I do think that subconsciously "non-techy" people still dislike it.

I feel like this is similar to the apple vs microsoft/IBM debates. I'm not even sure what the popular take on it is these days but I do believe that to some extent a pleasing user experience was/is championed by Apple (in a specific aesthetic sense). And, if apple never existed we would have less tech products with that user experience philosophy embedded in them. I believe that illusive "pleasing" user experience that apple seemed to try to build in its products is similar to the idea of not having as much bloat on websites.

There is business value of consuming every single morsel of user tracking data possible but that tracking also has some cost in terms of user experience. Just because companies have tended towards bloat doesn't mean that they are definitely right. Apple has made a great deal of money and I believe some of that is due to their style of user experience.
Low Power Mode on the Mac (Feature Request)
No, they are doing GNU/Windows actually.

It just happens that Linux kind of killed the commercial UNIX offerings, with Aix and HP-UX the last ones standing.

Everyone else just happens to want to use POSIX like tools, so GNU/Windows is no different than running a Linux VM on top of an IBM z/OS or IBM i mainframe.

Microsoft is cleverly going after the users that Apple doesn't care any more, the ones that weren't interested in Apple platform to begin with, they just want a pretty UNIX to run their POSIX command line tools.
Was that abstract generated by one of those markov chain things as a joke? I mean, Wikipedia doesn't seem to know what a Brownian computer is. And putting "simple" before Fokker-Plank equation and "in one dimension" after it is a classic trick straight out of the bluffers guide to sounding like a scientist.
They don't discuss it because they just give up if it takes too long.
> Occasionally, you can find great discussions on HN because HN has a large amount of domain experts on various sciencey topics. Apart from that, I don't really think HN is that incredibly fantastic.

Exactly. HN has experts, especially in some areas of computing. But many people sound off without knowing what they are talking about. I usually wonder why I even bothered to comment on something related to space. Space seems to be a topic the HN loves, but there aren't a ton of people here with real domain knowledge in it.
The vehicles could potentially in service almost 24/7, limited only by charging and maintenance time. Electric vehicles are incredibly cheap to maintain—electric motors have many fewer moving parts, regen braking means little wear on brake pads, etc. The batteries last a surprisingly long time (the batteries are managed to be kept between 20-80% for longevity).

I own a Pacifica PHEV, so I can come up with some numbers there: it has a 32-mile electric range off of roughly 13 kwh of charge. So, at 10¢/kwh, you're at about 4¢/mile for electricity. The vehicle can be charged from empty in two hours (on a level-two charger); so if you assume roughly 30 MPH average speed, the vehicle can be on the road ~1/3 of the time. So, assuming 240 miles per day * 365, you're at 87,600 miles per year. Assuming five years of vehicle life (not a stretch for this vehicle, especially in electric mode), you're at 438k miles out of a $50,000 vehicle; you'll probably need a new battery at 200k miles or so, so throw in $10k for that. So we're at ~14¢/mile for depreciation and battery replacement. Now we're at 24¢/mile—double it to factor in other maintenance (tires, cleaning, suspension, etc.), insurance, and to account for my likely optimistic usage pattern. We're still under 48¢/mile.

Keep in mind that this is for a massive seven-seat PHEV minivan. With a smaller, pure-electric vehicle (hybrid really isn't needed for this use-case), you're getting longer range and better mileage. Bump up the charge speed (level 3 charging is much faster than level 2), and you can probably get your run:charge ratio above 1:1.
Umm, didn't the more radical right-wing Russian posts, while energising the alt-right, equally discredit Trump in the eyes of liberals? You can't have it both ways. The truth is the Russian operation appears to have been designed to shake people's faith in Western democracy as it currently stands (and it's working!) Even causing some people to want to use that interference to delegitimise their otherwise legitimately-elected officials (high five, everyone!)
Ooh interesting, thank you!
Nature is important but people massively underestimate the nurturing component. Parents are most definitely key for these types of outcomes. If you're not familiar with the story already, read about the Polgar sisters. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/articles/200507/the-grand...

To your question, my immediate answer was, "let them play outside". But it sounds dismissive of what you are asking. So the better answer is: provide them with the opportunity to learn, encourage their curiosity, praise them for their work not innate intelligence while still telling them that they are smart, create an environment that values and promotes education, create a program for them to follow when they show interest in a particular discipline, have great mentors help them develop, etc.

The truth is, there is always going to be a compromise between having a care-free childhood and top performance from an early age. You can't really have both no matter how smart your kids are. Asian parents stereotypically tend to opt for the latter end of the spectrum with, on average, very successful outcomes.
I remember x86 real mode back in the day. Pretty hideous and hacky compared to what we have now.

If you're near LA, there's "Air Hollywood".[1] They're a prop house for the film industry, with full sized aircraft cabins and mockups. They have a a "Fearless Flight" program, where you go through the whole drill of flying, with a 2-hour "flight" in a cabin on the ground, with sound and effects. Anxiety counselors and a real airline pilot are on duty.

For an extra $150, you can take a short real flight and return.

> ... poor people prefer to be surrounded by other poor people...

I'd challenge that assertion. I think people like to be around friends, and society tends to put people in a position where the only friends they can have are in the same economic strata.
I mean, if most of that is a few images, then those images could just be bigger today for nicer screens and faster internet.

Not that that is the case.
I think people are being lazy. Of course it is harder to operate in China than in e.g. Europe were US companies were able to avoid local regulation, make sweet heart deals to pay a lot less tax and engage in anti-competitive behavior. Still essentially all mayor tech companies, except Google and Facebook, are there.

The large reason for Chinas success is that for every segment that FAANG casts its shadow in the west there is at least half a dozen companies in China. Europe doesn't lack e.g. map providers that even today could compete with Google if it wasn't for the Google's dominance in the overall market.

Taobao is also a lot better than eBay. (And I don't see that in itself being a factor of anti-competitive behavior like in some other cases).

Oh, wait a minute...what if we twist the existing non-net neutrality for our consumer purposes? What if we had easier mechanisms to slow down the more annoying aspects of websites we visit - such as those extraneous scripts on CNN, etc.? And, as we visit personal blogs that we value, we don't slow those down. (And, yes, if you're thinking to ask me about netflix, yes i would NOT slow that down. ;-) Anyway, if we had the "ease" with which to de-incentivize these web platforms, perhaps they'll be pushed to slim down their content delivery?

Now, before anyone replies with something like, "but you can implement ad blockers, etc."...yes, i know there are mechanisms...but i mean "easy" mechanisms...that is, something my grandma could implement with ease. i think this would serve to give true power to the consumer both on the net neutrality front as well as the content consumption front.
