I think it would be much more sinister.

The FTL controllers would be seen as gods by species who have yet to leave their homeworld. Every civilization within their sphere of influence would be either have to be their allies, thralls, unable to move around in the galaxy unless they get piggyback rides by the FTL barons, or engulfed and extinguished by them.

Imagine if we in the real world found out that there was no way to explore the universe we've been observing for centuries, unless we allied with some alien species that does not, can not, have our best interests on their minds.

Interstellar travel would require resources, and resources would require interstellar travel..

To go against the FTL species you would need to control at least as many planets as they do, and to control that many planets you would need FTL travel..

Sounds like a monumentally hopeless reality.

This is something I would recommend to everyone. Try and find a master storyteller, and sit and listen to them tell a story. It's quite a different experience, but immensely rewarding in my opinion. It can show how literature doesn't necessarily have to be written, and is something that has existed, in oral form, likely since the first people capable of speech. It's actually a shame, in my opinion, that it's dying out. It coexisted with writing for quite a while, up to living memory of people in the West, I'd say.
Perhaps the most finite ingredient (or virtue) is selflessness. Is the action or opinion expressed primarily for your own emotions or for something completely external? I suspect most people cannot honestly discern those two criteria and that indistinguishable quality is what allows people to conform unknowingly or fear originality.

Have a look at some of the tools from IDEO, or search for "human centred design" or "design thinking".

From the exposure I have had, you'll want to ask open questions "how might we...",. "what if..."

Workshops can be a group adding painpoints on post-it notes and then distilling them by grouping or allocating vote points.

Solutions can involve lofi prototyping (paper), produced by the users.

There's a lot of interesting tools.

It takes longer and the premise is you'll spend less time reworking designs and have more stakeholder buyin, because you will use empathy.

Fair enough. If you've seen examples of that sort of thing actually happening in practice, I defer to your experience, and we can certainly agree that they are unnecessary and effort shouldn't be spent on them!

Democracy is the form of governance that led to the international phenomenon that has lately been a venue for free speech, anonymity, free exchange of ideas and has enabled innumerable communities to organize and work for the common good like never before -- more widely known as the Internet. Google as a company would not have been possible without the Internet, as its core business relies on Internet remaining open and free. The less freedom users have, the less useful the Internet becomes and the less business Google is able to do. Therefore in the long term Google is shooting itself in the foot, not to mention the rest of us who are betrayed by this huge corporation which we allowed to grow in hopes that it stays true to its roots and customers.

It is therefore our responsibility to take back control at this crucial point in time by regulating the responsibilities of companies such as Google to ensure that such companies can not and will not undermine our freedoms by conspiring with totalitarian regimes. If we fail to act, we will quickly find ourselves in a world where censorship and other forms of manipulation spread across Internet like cancer; even our own democratic governments will start abusing it and making up rules that benefit them or their powerful sponsors in the short term, but hurt everyone else. The Internet will become segmented and the quality of information will go down. The likelihood of someone, somewhere, snooping our traffic and using it against us will increase, until we no longer feel safe to state our opinions or share any personal info online. We will become segmented, disconnected, unorganized, going back to the pre-Internet era.

Me being childish contacting the same so-called investors who promised to invest and bailed in the last minute. I contacted them and let them know that the same concept was developed somewhere.

> Abstract: In this article, the proof of the Riemann hypothesis is considered using the calculation of the Riemann ζ-function on a relativistic computer. The work lies at the junction of the direction known as "Beyond Turing", considering the application of the so-called "relativistic supercomputers" for solving non-computable problems and a direction devoted to the study of non-trivial zeros of the Riemann ζ-function. Considerations are given in favor of the validity of the Riemann hypothesis with respect to the distribution of non-trivial zeros of the ζ-function.

You are not burnt out, you are 100% correct.

Combine that with the fact that web chumps think they're 'inventing' when they're solving problems that were solved decades ago, only worse, and most of them don't have the historical background, education, or even interest to know what mistakes they're making. They think its "leveling up" to solve an already solved problem, but in web format, while wasting everyone's time with ads, tracking, gimmicks, for money.

You are not burnt out, or wrong. The web used to be better; computing used to be better. Windows is now a service, and Linux still can't drive graphics card without nonfree drivers. We failed, but I think there might be a chance to fix things.

We need to out together a cohesive document that explains why modern computing needs a serious overhaul, and a plan to get there. The computer should be fast; UI should be appealing, but minimal. It should be understandable and open down to RTL of the processor. The core should be aggressively minimal, and fully understandable. Networks with no central auth should be at least an option (preferably a local mesh). It should be cheap.

I'm thinking like a modern DOS, but for RISCV, fully implemented on an FPGA (goal of course to move to custom silicon for performance improvements later).
I'm not against the REPL (perhaps I should even describe its usage in more detail). In fact, I use it all the time.
I'm against books like Learn You A Haskell that leave the reader wondering how to make and distribute executable programs. Or, worse, create an impression that it is not even possible, if the reader is not motivated enough to read another book or blog posts.

I'm with Google. Many years ago when Google created the censored search site in China, it was the first one that showed the sentence "According to local laws, some search results are removed". Before Google, no search engine showed this and people didn't even realize they were seeing censored search results.

With a new censored search engine in China, Chinese users can access more accurate (and ethical) information than what they have now even if it has fewer results than google.com. This is not only about politics or democracy. In fact, even local players like Baidu will be forced to enhance their search results, which means their users (maybe forced to use it because it's the default one on their cellphones) can get better search results.

I don't think Chinese users will be stupid enough to think the censored search results reflect what the real internet looks like. People know about VPN but often find it difficult to use. VPN providers are being closed down or even sued everyday. Apple's AppStore no longer provide VPN apps. Those who claim only VPN users deserve to use Google are evil.

To me, the only bad thing is that the Chinese government will think they are "strong" enough to force a company like Google to obey them, but I think this is just a face gain for them but the ordinary internet users have much more benefits.

Ask HN: What type of work best gets you in a state of Flow?
Flow as coined by Mihaly Csikszentmihaly, where you are completely focused and in the zone, time is flying by and it's challenging enough to bring you plenty of satisfaction but not too challenging to cause stress and anxiety.

I've realized lately how important this is to my happiness and satisfaction with work. As a web developer though, I find I'm spending more and more time plumbing things together in a stop-start fashion and it's getting harder to achieve.

The best experiences I can remember were when I was building games prototypes in XNA. I was only using the basics of the framework and writing a lot of the engine myself. These days I'm using Unity which is great but once again harder to get into the flow state for me.

I'm feeling the temptation to go back to doing more things the old fashioned way just for this reason.

Well, any reasonable-sounding problem proposed by a famous mathematician that remains unsolved for a century is noteworthy just on that alone. Riemann's hypothesis qualifies as this.

The hypothesis is notable on its own because it gives us insights into the distribution of the prime numbers.
If you still haven't gotten your IP assignments yet, you will probably have a lot more luck contacting the "Small Property Account Specialist" who (in my case at least) was the one who guides through finding out whether your location can do gigabit pro. It's also worth practicing the magic lines that get you to metro E support. I've been using "can I speak to fiber optic internet support".
I can't say that I'm firmly in either camp.

What seems much more important to me is that the behavior is well documented. If I am working with a system where 1 / 0 is defined to be zero, I will deal with that just as I deal with other peculiarities like 1 / 3 being 0 and 1.0 / 3.0 only approximately being a third in some systems. It's a practical concern like many others in programming.

> Bayesian probability is emphatically not about an experiment being repeated in the future. That's the frequentist interpretation of probability.

I am saying something different, but this seems like a futile discussion. What does it mean to have P(Paul wrote it) equal to some number in (0,1)? Let's call that number q. Explain what q means in words.

If the truth were ever going to be revealed, or if I could conceive of the experiment being repeated in the future, I could explain it as "I would be willing to pay up to $q to buy an asset that pays $1 if Paul wrote it and $0 otherwise."

> And what are you trying to say by the phrase "counting some stuff and dividing those counts by some numbers and stuff"?

I mean it is very hard for me to take a person seriously who is doing a whole bunch of interviews without even a working paper somewhere.

It seems that if you use some arithmetic, people are inclined to accept what you did without questioning whether it makes sense to apply such models in this case.
