What I'm advocating for is not to cache in RAM but as a file in something like S3. Build the full HTML page for a time period and store it as a blob, serve it to the user and have JS take over on the front end. You can use local storage to cache information on the client's computer and purge that cache after another predetermined time period.

This way you are reducing the number of times you are busting the cache unnecessarily since it doesn't matter if you are getting up to the second vs up to the minute updates from reddit.
Landau's problems are pretty simple in their statement. I believe that Goldbach's conjecture is the oldest, dating to 1742. So I wouldn't exactly call it approachable in the sense of easy to solve, but the statement is quite simple. The full list of Laundau's problems, from the Wikipedia page ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landau's_problems ), is:

1. Goldbach's conjecture: Can every even integer greater than 2 be written as the sum of two primes?

2. Twin prime conjecture: Are there infinitely many primes p such that p + 2 is prime?

3. Legendre's conjecture: Does there always exist at least one prime between consecutive perfect squares?

4. Are there infinitely many primes p such that p − 1 is a perfect square? In other words: Are there infinitely many primes of the form n^2 + 1?

I don't think any of them has a million dollar prize, but tenure at a decent university seems like a fairly reasonable expectation for solving one of these.
Yep, at least in the UK. If you want to leverage the cloud as a bank, then there are regulatory requirements to go Multi-cloud - it's not a choice.
It's been few days since this post, don't know if you're still checking the thread.

I'm really a beginner at lisp, so perhaps my questions won't make much sense? I'd like to have Lua host application (in Love2d) with lisp-like runtime. The lisp-like code is expected to be changed often during the runtime by modifications of structure and constants in AST, so compile-time macros are not useful to me.

On the other hand, the lisp-like code would not be written from scratch in text form. It would be built by executing code-transformation functions that would always construct a syntactically valid AST. For example, let's say there is a function for drawing an arc of single color. Now user wants to draw a rainbow. I would offer a function that could be executed to wrap existing operation in a loop. In rainbow example the loop iteration would also modify a vertical displacement and color hue shift.

My two questions - is lisp (and Lumen specifically) a good choice for self-modifying live coding runtime? And is generated Lua source in Lumen project suitable for embedding Lumen into Lua host application?
It means it would do e.g. the adjustable photo background bokeh effect on your device via its onboard NPU rather than upload it to Apple servers for them to process it for you.

I am working on industrial level sorting machine. That machine use Linux device to control other subsystems (cameras, conveyor belt controller, various servos and what not).

>Thank you for disclosing that you fight such legislation. "disclosing"

What's there to hide about doing my duty as a citizen to work to make my country a better place?

>I don't know if that means you're a lawyer for Apple or another firm that is fighting Right to Repair.

I don't know if ignoring all my specific arguments entirely and immediately jumping to conspiracy crap means you're a shill for iFixit or the like but the rules of HN ask that everyone assumes good faith as the default position, and those are good rules for an online discussion. Guessing that perhaps you instead just have a very strong emotional connection to the act of tinkering and "repairing" perhaps, FWIW I strongly empathize with you. I absolutely know the feeling of wanting to mess around with things at a lower level then is "normal" and am both upset and threatened feeling by the idea that might get closed down more and more. Nevertheless each specific case needs to be weighed on its merits and the physical violence of the State is a very big hammer to wield. For those of us living in a democracy it is our duty to question and pick at suggestions to do so every single time, even if ultimately we come to agree.

>As a consumer, I am for repairability.

As a consumer I am for reasonable universal expectations of guaranteed lifespan with that built right into the sticker price so that the market can properly function. I absolutely do not think "repairability" is a goal in and of itself to the exclusion of all else, and think that legislating such would hurt consumers.

>Maybe my perspective would be different if my annual bonus depended on increasing the number of units sold every year.

Or maybe your perspective would be different if you considered opposing arguments with rigor and intellectual honesty rather then slimy insinuations and personal attacks? That is the behavior you just engaged in and frankly it's ridiculous, particularly since we both are (apparently?) in favor of enhanced consumer protection. For root's sake, think about what you are actually saying: I specifically called for a legal requirement of something that'd amount to a full warranty with government mandated performance requirements for a period of a minimum of 2 years and going up to 5 years and then ALSO possibly a paid repair/replace requirement after that. This would essentially nuke the enormously profitable extended warranty market just for starters, force companies to internalize public expectations and costs, and you think that's something big corps would be in favor of?? Really?
He was composing music at the age of 5.

I would have been composing at 5 had my father been a musician/composer/teacher! (I did start piano at 4, in a not-particularly-musical household) As it was, I remember hearing that when I was about 9, and thought "Oh well, it's too late for me" - which is a shame! But his first compositions weren't great. You write that like it's some super-human feat or something.

"he was a prodigy from the earliest age. ... Mozarts brain was just tuned for music in a way ours are not." I don't know why people talk like that. Maybe as an excuse for not achieving great things themselves, or even having to try.

There was a Hungarian guy who decided to train his 3 daughters to be chess players, to see just how good they could be given a proper training. The 2nd strongest sister became world champion. The strongest one never played in women-only events, she was too strong, and turned out to be the strongest woman chess player of all time, by a long way. (i.e. Susan and Judit Polgar) I don't think it was because their brains were 'tuned for it'. They just had the perfect environment.
Strange, I thought I answered the spirit of the question. You asked what defines the current "thought" of the field, and how it views empiricism, no?

Or are you really curious about how undergraduates are taught, despite the distinction between the undergraduate curriculum and the professional researcher's view? My introductory economics course used Mankiw's textbook. If I remember correctly, it didn't even use calculus. Imagine a university physics course doing that. I think of that more like high school level. Come to think of it, AP Economics probably would have let me skip that class.

Looking over at my bookshelf, I see Wooldridge's "Introductory Econometrics". That's a pretty good one, with plenty of empirical work. I can't spot my macroeconomics textbook, but I remember it evaluating each model by how consistent its predictions were with observed behavior.

... it occurs to me that someone ought to update Wooldridge's exercises for R-language or Python ...

> It is a big cultural and infrastructure change over a longer timespan, but it is achievable.

Yes, but there's also a geographical difference. Countries in Europe are rather small, and a long history has restricted some land use. In many areas of the US land was almost a non-issue, so people settled more sparsely, and even cities became sprawls (e.g. Houston, LA).

This is absolutely true for me. For me even cycling doesn't cut it. If the store is only moderately interesting, it doesn't hurt to spend a few seconds walking into its door. But it's already too much trouble locking my bike, removing my helmet and then walking in, let alone in a car.
Letting go is the most challenging part. If you build/hire the right team you trust them to tell you nifty technical things. Manager's job is to remove road blocks and protect the team from "outside interference" and distractions, like reorg discussions, new features/deadlines, scope creep and stuff... What you describe is more of a technical lead.

I think it might be a good idea to increase your business/enterprise pricing. As it is, it feels to cheap (e.g. too close to the first paid plan) to be any good.

Besides, business users going for the business instead of premium plan are going to be mostly price insensitive anyway (who needs more than 50 websites?!)

Any time I drive a new road, I have to drive much more slowly - lanes unexpectedly turn into turning lanes resulting in quick merges, or a manhole has subsided a half foot making for an unpleasantly bumpy ride if I'm not used to it. Or in a rural environment, I have to spend more focus keeping an eye on the road surface for any number of reasons.

If I then drive the road and there's been some changes (traffic cones, lane closures, heavier traffic than normal, dark so I need to watch out for animals more closely....) I adjust my speed for the circumstances

I don't see why gathering surface information would be any different. Gather info, compare to previous fleet-gathered info, adjust driving to compensate. Seems reasonable to me (as ONE source of info for decision-making). And as fleet size increases, info gets gathered more quickly - look at how quickly google maps can inform you of traffic slowdowns in busy urban areas.
That's how you're supposed to do it. My manager had a nack for only giving the negative feedback 3 or 4 times.

Recent Waymo leak suggests rain is solved and snow looking good to be solved next year.

I'm not underestimating how hard the problem is, I'm complaining that people are taking the difficulty as an excuse to pretend it does not exist, or to treat it as unsolvable.

I'm not saying it's easy in real life, I'm saying it's largely solved in real life. There is a big difference between those two ideas.

The difficulty was part of how it was solved. In addition to the physical difficulty of setting up a store, businesses have to be registered and licensed by state and local authorities. The purpose of the EV cert (and the OV cert, really) was to tie web trust back to that same regulatory infrastructure. If you have a problem with a site using an EV cert, you can look up the company info in the cert and contact their local authorities.

It works quite well with none of these issues.

The 6-8am window is for large deliveries. There is normally a retractable barrier for emergency usage (police/ambulance etc) and for minimal day access (I don't know how this is managed, but I have seen vehicles have to turn around and leave, where others, normally with a business inside get access).

Another common way is to have a central pedestrian only section, but with vehicle access through the 'back streets' behind. The pedestrian street is normally a great deal larger than the (often one way) back streets, and again has retractable bollards for maintenance, event vehicles and emergency vehicles. These back streets also give access to underground/aboveground parking for residents in flats. I would love to see this model used to some extent in residential areas. Some of my favorite times are when a street is closed to traffic for a street party.

In practice it works very well, at least in a large number of towns and cities in the UK. It's about finding the correct roads and spaces to limit and disallow motor vehicles on.
But again, many people have ideal environments and don't make it; others have environments far from ideal and do.
> I'll never understand companies that focus so much on maps as priamry source of data.

Maybe they don't really care about the product. Maybe the execs only care about making money, so they'll find funding for anything - whether it will pan out or not.

Self-driving cars are hot and for now there's a lot of money available. I think things will cool down when the hard part starts - like when they really do have to figure out how to make them drive in less than ideal conditions.

I think many people coming up these days never really felt the effects of Vendor Lock-in. Everything is either an open enough standard or dominated so thoroughly by one player that there is no option anyway. I remember my printer not working, and saving my report that I wrote in MS Works on a floppy disk. I assumed that the computers at school would be able to read it. They had Word Perfect, and MS Word, I mean one was the same vendor, and it still didn't work. That was over 20 years ago, but I still cringe whenever I see someone using any kind of closed standard.

The idea of starting out with a single provider until you actually have things working is probably a good idea.
But, I'm surprised that more companies with a certain level of steady traffic don't run their own hardware and spillover to the cloud for spikes.

>That would be true for any company once their core set of products go out of trend without replacements.

Why would any company allow it's products and services to age out of the market? How would any other company survive such a thing?

If Google "loses" in the search engine space, it loses everything. Everything Google is and does, is financed by ad revenue from search. Without search, Google becomes a pauper.

To take this in the IBM direction: Assume they (GOOG) lose at search, all the devs abandon ship or are layed off, Google could still get business because it could coast on the street-cred it built back when it was successful. So as long as it has mind-share and the google brand does not get destroyed it could still persist on well after death, draining down it's resources and selling off subdivisions (essentially cannibalizing itself, much as IBM has done). Google could aggressively manage it's stock price to hide it's status from the plebs and milk government contracts (that other organizations can't even bid on) and cannibalizing itself and drawing down it's savings for many years. This is the story of IBM. Once the boomer generation is no longer in charge of anything then IBM will fully die, because they don't make anything or do anything that the average person cares about, so they're mindshare dies with the boomer generation.
That's not misogyny. It's attacking a caricature. They do the same thing regarding male caricatures.
It's an (albeit sarcastic) remark about the very decision-making body talked about in the article. Furthermore, it's in direct response to still active comment:

Nobody can grow a crop of rice from scratch in 10 days either. Agriculture intrinsically is a long term process requiring multi-year or multi-decade long investments. It's not a case of feeding people now OR investing in being able to feed them in the future. You have to balance both.

It's is entirely possible to fund agricultural development and space technology, and balance the two to complement each other. Space technology has a proven track record of massive technological and humanitarian benefits. Why are you complaining about it, instead of say people wasting hundreds of billions each year on Hollywood movies and TV shows, or many other unproductive activities which we spend more on than space.
There's real irony in this statement, when the people who develop the technology and commend home garaging are also the garage-free, commute-free kind type of people who vehemently tear down the idea of a suburban home/garage setup.
