Berlin is very good but, again, it always depends on personal circumstances. I'm pretty sure a young adult with a starting family and a comparatively good salary in the US would find it much less attractive than a single, middle-aged, nomad gigster from Western Europe. I mean, the world is going local again but still glocal for people able to work remotely or without serious committments.

It's hard to reconcile this:

> It was the smallest implementation of chess on any computer until its record was broken in January 2015 by the PC-compatible BootChess.

with this:

> 1K ZX Chess uses only 672 bytes of RAM,[2] but implements chess rules except for castling, promotion, and en passant, including a computer opponent.

If you don't include castling, promotion, and en passant, the game isn't chess anymore, or at least it hasn't been for a couple hundred years.

This is in contrast to what the article from NHTSA says:

"With this new setting, it is no longer necessary to turn and look into the blindzones."

... which is in contrast to what the original article quite emphatically says:

"... move your head or you're dead ..."

I like the novel mirror arrangement and will try it but I hope people will follow the advice of the fighter pilot, and not NHTSA, and continue to move their heads.
A chess program without castling, promotion, and en passant is incomplete. It is not chess, it is a work in process.
Most likely there is not much that you can look at but this overview of the space shuttle can give you a lot of insight into how software and hardware are designed for flight critical applications. I believe this was posted a while ago here.

https://spaceflight.nasa.gov/shuttle/reference/shutref/orbit...

One take away is that software and hardware are nearly impossible to separate in a flight critical application.

Also one note, the space shuttle was incredibly complex for its day. So I would say the complexity of the space shuttle would give you a decent idea of what commercial aviation does now.
That suggests that "more people" is an unmitigated good, which I don't believe. There has never been a time when you were more able to avoid unplanned childbirth. The number of children in foster care has been increasing since 2013.[0]Whatever good could be done by having a child could be done better by acknowledging some of the people already in this world and giving them a real shot. We're all responsible for any situation that becomes a "tragedy of the commons", and we need to start behaving like it.

If you as an individual are taking on that level of personal responsibility, your organization is broken.

Part of the regulatory process is to demonstrate sufficient levels of resilience in both the systems produced and the development process used to produce them. It should be a really boring process with a lot of crosschecks. You should be sleeping well knowing that your work is being reviewed and tested and attacked by other people.

(Reality is often different, of course. Just don't try to be the hero.)

They strictly follow procedures. If faulty code gets through to production and somehow causes a fatality, it's a failure of the procedures, not the individual developer. This works so well in aviation and yet seems completely non-existent in the automotive world.

Preparing papers for publication requires a non-negligible amount of not-fun work. Someone has to proofread the paper, verify compliance with the journal's house style guide, manage the interactions with reviewers, etc.

For high impact journals, it may be possible to find enough volunteer editors who are willing to accept compensation solely in the form of a line of their CV. Less prestigious journals need to provide additional incentives to editors, and cash has a proven track record of motivating people.

Perhaps academic publishers collect to much rent from their pseudo-monopolies on specific publishing niches, but it is difficult to escape the basic economics of publishing.
Thanks, that would be a nice contribution!

Turns out I always turn lights on in such HDR situations producing low-contrast areas: if you have a hard time seeing those in front of you, those behind you have a hard time seeing you. Same goes for haphazard tree shades, even though it looks like it's bright enough, the alternating areas of bright and dark makes you difficult to see. Also, I have excellent eyesight which biases me into what is seeable and what is not, but I try to take into account those who don't, and act accordingly.
Thanks for the great reddit link. It is the best way to explain this!

To be clear, the author's usage of "flaking" refers to people who "flake out" - or frequently renege or "bail out" of plans they have made with other people.

In my opinion - people who flake have a lack of self-discipline and a lack of respect for anyones time but their own.

Also, key point:
> Spend some time traveling the world, head to some developing countries outside of your consumer driven world.

Traveling is a luxury that many people cannot afford - it requires a ton of money.

You're telling me to save up money, then to spend it, to go to a place where I realize I won't need money?

How do you tell a poor person with financial troubles - don't worry just travel and you'll see you don't actually need money?

People who say, "Money does not affect happiness" usually come from a place of privilege - i.e. they already have money and have their basic needs met, so they've never /really/ had to worry about money. If you're a single mother of three kids in a minimum wage job, then money definitely affects your happiness.

A warning, do NOT use this mirror arrangement if you drive in a crowded city and share the road with scooters, motorcycles, bikes, and pedestrians.

BGE is great if you drive on big roads and mainly share it with other cars.

However if you drive in a city with tons of scooters, you know the ones that will swarm your car, then they will all be in your blind spot if you use this mirror arrangement.

Although reviewers don't get paid editions don't just organize reviews. They select high impact papers, copy edit papers, typeset and also have some writers for summary stuff at the front of the magazine. Probably more I'm not thinking of. Is it worth it, who knows.

Plus it is about time to move from 70s style APIs.
The ""market"" (including me) overwhelmingly prefers Algol-derived languages. The different types of bracket used in different ways seem to be a benefit. Very few empirical studies of this have been done, and there's also the problem that "easy to read (for newbies)" and "easiest to read (for experienced people familiar with C syntax)" can be completely different.
Turning your head backwards gives you wider peripheral vision with the properties described in the article (i.e. quick motion detection).

When reversing in perpendicular pedestrian/cycle traffic (such as coming out a driveway, or if you accidentally ended up over a pedestrian crossing when the red light got you and you want to go back a few feet) looking backwards is much safer.
Take the fighter pilot thing with a grain of salt. Some of this stuff belongs more in the sky than on the road. The mirrors thing is a good example. Fighter pilots seek to reduce head movements. During g and/or turns, turning your head can lead to disorientation, even nausia. (It is about the little canals in your ears.) That isnt an issue on the road. Dont try to reduce shoulder checks.

The focus on being seen is also something to think about. Google "target fixation". At night, drunks tend to drive towards bright shiny things. Airstrips amd cockpits use this to hold a pilots attention. There is something to be said for staying hidden, or at least not relying totally upon cars seeing you. Better to stay where you cannot be hit in the first place, and actively avoid cars. That might mean not riding with traffic approaching from behind, or not trusting that if they see you they will avoid you.
That's mostly still the case, and they're hoping to mitigate that by capping publication fees. I do think a change in incentive structures, where you need to publish with certain journals to advance your career ("pay to promote"), is still needed though.
> QA being too close (in org chart terms) to production.

Can you explain in a bit more detail what this means in practice? I haven't worked with a QA team before and I'm curious.

Does it just mean the QA checks happen well after the specific work was being done, making it harder to go back and fix things (due to mental context switching, tooling, etc)? Or just too many last-minute fixes?

The "Medical leave" portion of the time off is covered under completely different laws, so I'm not sure which portion of what I've said you're replying to.

No one is being sent back to work without medical leave from their attending physician, who is charged with determining when the mother is healthy enough to go home and can go back to work. I absolutely do not, under any circumstances, believe in any being or institution ever getting between a mother and her doctor's right to determine what is medically best for her and her child. That is essentially what society was built to protect.
The procedures exist and are 'followed', but there's a lot more time-to-market pressure. Manufacturing lines dictate the schedule and software must keep up no matter what.

Indeed, based on the title I was hoping we would get an analysis of why flaking is more widespread in San Francisco. Instead, it's just an assumed that more people flaking in SF is true, and conjecture and anecdotes as to why that may be the case. Not a very interesting article for HN.
It rains a lot in winter. I don't think that's such a big deal.

I was a military wife. I've lived a bunch of places. To me, bad weather is 115 in the summer or heavy snow and ice in winter or tornados or hurricanes etc.

I also grew up in Georgia. Georgia gets terrible storms. Seattle doesn't get a lot of storms. It just rains and rains.

California has Fire Season as one of its seasons. That alone made me consider leaving. That's not a season I want in my life.

The big concerns for the Seattle weather are if you suffer from SAD or allergies. If you have SAD, it doesn't get enough sunlight. If you have allergies or certain other health issues, the combination of rain and temperate weather means you have a lot of mold there. That's a big problem for some people, but there are ways to minimize its impact on you.

I have allergies and respiratory problems. I don't want carpet, among other things. If my indoor air quality is tolerable, I'm okay up here in Washington. (I'm like 2 hours from Seattle, near the coast.)

They are both world class cities with a lot to offer. If you have been to both and you liked Seattle, then go there. Feel free to use sites like bestplaces.net to compare some of the metrics, but there is nothing wrong with going with your first impression if you don't personally have specific issues that need to be addressed.

I have a long list of personal issues and I heavily researched where to move. I live without a car. I have a limited income. I have health issues. So I had specific needs.

If you are basically healthy, can drive if you need to and make adequate money, then it really comes down to what you like and if you have specific career goals that would be better met in one of the cities. That's actually a wonderful problem to have and I envy you.

Best.

In the Netherlands, its something along the lines of "Every x payments, you need a PIN". I'd guess that any payment with PIN resets the counter.

I was discussing with colleagues how smart the interval is. Perhaps the bank is doing some anomaly detection to inform whether a PIN is needed.
Facebook also has Messenger, which to my knowledge and from my experience is far more prominent than Google Hangouts for "private" digital communication. Presumably they mine those conversations for ads as well.
That’s a great list. I also like to ask:

- When did you last miss supper / a personal event because you were working late?

- Think of the last person you know who left the company. Why did they leave?

- When was your last vacation, and how long was it?

These are essentially a way of asking, how’s the work life balance? In a way that avoids the BS answer, “great!”

In addition to flaking, people are highly reluctant to commit. Which is to say, they won’t say yes or no until the last minute. This is just as rude as flaking, given that many occasions require headcount for planning.
