Devils advocate, personal experience, personal interpretation, and understanding of current literature:

1) Reflects current consensus in the field. Some may argue as 'coddling'(and consensus and approach may change) but is in general regarded as the safe empathetic thing to do, slightly analogous to epilepsy considerations.

'Posturing' could be considered an uncharitable assumption here... "What is the agenda behind any posturing?"

2.a) Presumably pointed out to show that it can indeed affect anyone. B) likely reflects a common thought cycle of his (guilt at feeling this way due to position etc.; this becomes part of the self hate cycle). C) to precisely acknowledge that this article doesn't intend to undermine other precarious or disadvantaged positions).

"> My life is, by every objective measurement, very very good.
Clearly not if you're suffering."

This is precisely the point he was making, I believe(...?)

3) is important to those readers that still cannot bear to even imagine burdening their loved one with a similar admission. At least one of this article's readers wept imagining the value, freedom and weightlessness that may come from finally saying this, and by extension realising the inevitability of that statement vs a more unsatisfactory ending. (I.e it was valuable to one reader , at least).

4. Seems appropriate to ask for funding to reduce net negative emotion in the world.

I would assume that your downvotes are due to your answer showing
appearing unnecessarily hostile and uncharitable to the article, which is probably being interpreted on face value and being written with good, empathetic intention (not a hidden agenda).
Atmel Studio works well with Arduino. It has an "import from Arduino sketch" project option and can call AVRdude as an external tool.
Make sure you preach this. It's a message that people need to hear. Our children's generation is getting decimated before they are even born. I look at my Facebook and I'm saddened to realize that half of my friends probably won't have kids. They're great people and a world with their children in it would be a better world.
They do internally, but as far as I know there's no way to send them from outside - you have to be root, and if you're root you don't really need AT commands to exfiltrate data.
I think people are shorting the company because it's bankrupt and way behind no fulfilling orders + having major rework problems in factories.

Elon likes to push that narrative that there's this epic battle between himself and people with short positions in a good vs. evil way.

In fact, it seems pretty apparent that the company is in trouble and the people saying that have put their money where their mouth is. They also probably aren't obsessing over it every last minute or pushing narratives to try to get the stock to tank, it'll do that on it's own. In fact, I bet the majority of people who are holding tesla shorts aren't sneaky oil execs, but hedge fund guys who want a pickup/hedge for the market as a whole. It's pretty common to short stocks that look weak to protect against general market volatility for when your main portfolio takes a little dip

The conspiracies and the cult of personality surrounding a company in moderate financial trouble with problems delivering their product is pretty strange to me. Startups fail all the time, they also over promise and under deliver all the time.

There haven't been any real claims of people trying to influence the tesla stock price other than Elon. If he has this kind of info, he should send it to the SEC since they should be able to track down the nefarious bastards that hold a short position.

This is one of those situations that is probably exactly what it looks like. Elon is learning that hardware is much tougher to build than software.
How AI Generates a “Furry Dog Silhouette”
So you're arguing that expending energy to reduce the rate of energy loss adds value. I agree, but note that you still needed to expend that energy to create that value. Also, a more efficient value-generating activity still requires more energy than inactivity.

I still don't see how this evades my point. Economics simply can't trump thermodynamics.
> The WASM platform does provide some really cool protections, but it's not a silver bullet, you still need to fix your C code.

I mean, the way you're phrasing it, that's true of every system. IIRC seL4 had a couple bugs where the code _and_ the formal model both got it wrong in the same way, and it therefore passed the proof.

The guarantees that wasm attempts to provide are that it's ok for me as a user to run random code in a wasm sandbox, rather than that code is inherently better at it's internal security by being in a sandbox.

ie. wasm doesn't attempt to make the developer's job any easier, other than making it more likely that users will be willing to run their code.

Like, I don't think my c code is any safer when I run it on a system with a hypervisor.

I cant help but think negotiating those situtations is exaclty what the human needs to avoid depression. Maybe you chances of dying young are much higher, like 30% vs 1%. But die young or die old, those humans really lived.
Ya but a modern processor has virtual registers and perhaps hundreds of them, so im guessing this might be historical. Also it should be noted that there is some strong connection between floating point operations and implicit registers like EAX ( _mm_movemask_epi8 is one example)

Ask HN: Do you think Stripe integration with SaaS should be simpler?
I've been talking to hundreds of SaaS startups about SaaS billing for the past few months, and here is an overall observation:

Almost all early-stage SaaS startups architect and build a direct integration with Stripe or a subscription billing system like Chargebee, Chargify, Recurly, etc. But almost all mid-stage SaaS startups who have over 20k in MRR and ready to grow their SaaS, realize the complexity of updating pricing models and build a scalable SaaS billing integration with Stripe.

I want to focus on mid-stage SaaS startups who are making over 20k in revenue.

Here is my question for the mid-stage SaaS startups:

1- Is this a real pain?

2- If you do feel this pain, how do you explain it and what do you search online?

3- Am I crazy and completely wrong?
Common Mythconceptions
> but it was still better than any other language’s equivalent except for Rust’s

I'd say almost any language with project-specific deps folder (e.g. Node, Elm) are better than GOPATH and its module system.

For example, can't just write `import "./util"`. It needs to be fully qualified, every import depending on full project fs hierarchy including even the project user/name on github. This is hilarious when you just want to fork a project from github and get it running.

It's a bit strange, but here's the rule: if you can divide the time signature by 3/2 (and not get 1 anywhere), it's the same as the result, but in triplets.

So 6/8 is a variant of 2/4, with 2 main beats in the bar. 3/4 has 3 beats to a bar.

Or in quavers, 6/8 is Da du du Da du du, whilst 3/4 is Da du Da du Da du.
Has that continued post reunification? A big problem with interventions like this is that they are so specific to the zeitgeist. By that I mean when everyone struggles, gender differences diminish, and when everyone is doing well, or at least so it seems, gender differences exaggerate.

To be less controversial, the number of artists in ancient Greece was small. Today, depending upon definition, a huge portion of people make a living creatively. Heck, even a job like Food Photographer is an historical outlier in terms of the skill set.

As more types of jobs open up, and society has much, much better individual food security, people make decisions to enter more and more niche professions that don't always make for great statistics.

That's part of the modern, western problem, that when people are free to do what they want, and what we individually want is complicated, they tend to choose paths that lead to an aggregate we didn't expect. I mean, honestly, how many people ever predicted Instagram models in the 1980s? Youtube stars are analogous to TV stars, but Instagram? You take a photo of yourself next to something? That's your job?
> Our bodies have not lost the ability to do manual labor in under 10 generations.

Our living conditions have substantially weakened the filters that prevent people likely to be unable to do manual labor from surviving to adulthood (if the problem manifests at birb) or surviving long after the condition arises (if it manifests later.)

> This is a well-known problem with any "reality-based" programming

Panorama isn't a "reality-based" programme. It's an undercover investigative programme.

The problem with "reality-based" programming is that some scenes are completely falsified or exaggerated (with the knowing assistance of the show 'participants'). Most of them even have to put a disclaimer at the end of the show saying as much.

Notwithstanding that every produced show is going to have some slant to a point, to classify the linked video as "reality-based" is completely and utterly disingenuous.
Interesting but very difficult to read.
Here is your tea, sugar, salt, and spices each for a pittance. Here are your 600 thread count sheets, your satin for a song, your comfortable house that heats & cools itself. Your telephone and computer, which do the work of an army of couriers & mathematicians. Your Netflix subscription, which can keep you endlessly entertained.

And, if you want ships and armies, you can always join the military and pursue a command. Remember, many kings of old were not just politicians with military powers bestowed on a purple cushion, they were war figures who rose to the top of the bloodshed. Think Andrew Jackson, Washington, Grant.

amazed this hasn't attracted more attention.
Not quite. It is correct to say that the numerator is the count and the denominator is what is counted. So 3/4 is 3 quarter notes, and 6/8 is 6 eighth notes. However which notes get the beat is a bit more fuzzy. 6/8 is usually but not always two beats per measure, with three eighths per beat (counted 1-tee-ta 2-tee-ta)

That gets to the concept of simple and compound meter. In simple meter the the beat gets divided in two and in compound the beat gets divided in three. (Complex is a mix, like 7/8 may be divided 1-and 2-and 3-tee-ta).

Ultimately, the beat can be more interpretive. The 2nd movement of Beethoven’s 9th symphony is in (mostly) 3/4 but it is so fast, no conductor beats it in three, they beat in in one.

Huh, this is an old trick but always a good one. Back in the days when iPhones were AT&T exclusive people managed to bypass the carrier lock by fuzzing all possible permutations of AT commands to the baseband. Once a crash was found it could potebtially be used as an exploit to modify its internal state.

It took Apple four years to harden their baseband firmware to resist all kinds of fuzzing efforts and bear in mind Apple only had 2-3 concurrent models to worry about. It must be harder for android vendors with their myriad different platforms.

Essentially I'm questioning this common idea that talking about depression will alleviate it, and maybe prevent suicide. I'm not saying that it doesn't, I'm just asking for evidence that it does. My anecdotal experience is that people who talk about it, solidify it into their outward personality. I'm not sure it's a good thing, but other posters seem to have had good outcomes.
They still keep the physical register files split between integer and floating/vector, despite the renaming that happens on each of the pipes. Ironically enough the integer file has more physical registers than the vector file on most uarchs (although less bits).

Elon nearly brought the newly merged X and Confinity to its knees during a critical period in its development by 1) insisting on the "X" brand when Paypal was more popular with users, and 2) insisting on Windows over Linux despite the protests of his tech team.

Soon after he was ousted and Thiel was made CEO. Interesting to see he's still pushing Windows.

It's clear that there's still a long way to go. Too much manual feature engineering and handtuning is needed right now due to the extremely weak reward signalling of current reinforcement learning algorithms, crippling OpenAI in the later stages.

The cool thing is that bruteforcing computational power seems to get us decently close. I'm optimistic that with renewed interest in the reinforcement learning field, breakthroughs will be made on the algorithmic side within a matter of time.
Or even some JS bundle sizes.
This looks like a great step forward for that jQuery style of frontend, but after using React I'm never going back. I favor Rails rendering most things and React for the highly interactive parts. I can see myself switching over to SPA eventually, but I'm waiting for the ecosystems to settle down and reach the same ease of use as Rails.
This paragraph confuses me:

> Redis Labs customers often asked directly for such things. And actually, such features could be cool, but it’s not Redis, I’m not interested, and the open source side of Redis does not have the development force to keep all this things going btw. And this is a major advantage both for Redis and for Redis Labs: it is relatively cheap to pay just me and a few more OSS development time internally, while allocating the rest of the resources to development of things that are useful for the Redis Labs business. There is anyway a great deal of contributions arriving from the community. And I also keep saying “no” to all this fancy ideas… which is also a problem.

At first the author says that there is not enough manpower to develop new large-scale Redis features, but then he says that contributions are being turned away.

> To add to your point, nobody actually trolls in person or in real life because 1) the body language gives them away immediately and 2) they're risking getting punched in the face for their effort.

A couple of people already got to it before me, but I wanted to add on: plenty of people do troll in meatspace.

I don't think it is quite as effective as online trolling, and certainly doesn't have the same impact to effort ratio, but it happens.

When some kid calls in a bomb threat to get out of school (happened to my Middle School post-9/11), it has an effect largely contained to that school and the immediate vicinity around it. When somebody trolls online, it has a much more subtle effect, but with enough contributors over enough time, a potentially more poisonous effect on society.

In the first instance cops can come in and clear the building discovering there is in fact, zero bombs (or alternatively, there is, but I've never personally seen that happen). In the second instance, you have a faceless group of people that are shaping and poisoning debates or preventing them from even occurring in the first place, helped by the very platforms they're trolling on. Fear, uncertainty and doubt has always been easy to spread around like so much manure, not so much with the antidotes to FUD because it is basic human nature to be cautious and skeptical of that which is different from what they know, or beyond their understanding.

In meatspace you also have more dimensions through which to interpret someone's intended message: body language, tone, choice of words, facial language, gestures, whether they can stifle their laughter and so on, and even all of that might not be enough (trolling people is easy even in meatspace, even if you're half-laughing when you do it and is a common enough flirting gesture). Cyberspace, you often only have what they wrote, and how they wrote it. It really isn't the same.

It's a couple hundred meters from the western border of the USA.

Which as a thought experiment shows that the 100 miles is not the real problem; a great deal of hassle can occur even if checks were limited to a single mile from the border.
It's a matter of including a <script> tag and then reading the caveats. Very likely to work for a traditional server-rendered app.
