Mmmmm, sorry. So, we have an #UXFAIL here. I've relayed it on to the rest of the inrupters. Obviously, we're happy if you have more detailed experiences to share, there's a bunch of frontend stuff to fix (I'm working mostly on the server side and developer experience stuff).
Arguments that the successful are morally superior will also find an eager audience. In contrast, arguments that successful are inherently inferior in any way are a hard sell.
I agree with the dead thread guy! Fuck this dumb company and it’s crappy software!
I'm just saying if you want to target something on an element it needs to be set in an attribute and classList takes care of this.

I use classes strictly for styling. I change these styles by adding and removing class names and classList handles it very well without me needing to read the data attribute, make it an array, manipulate it, join it and update the attribute.
If Musk had come out in favor of the proposal and said: “Yes, it would actually be a good idea to hold Tesla to a higher standard of corporate governance and have someone take on part of my workload, so I’m not going to vote for myself” — do you think he’d be chairman against his will?

Hah, "just" a reinvention of graph analysis with linear-algebra. That's a "paradigm shift." Check out the performance numbers from that youtube video for redis-graph versus other graph databases. Reformulation of graph algorithms as algebraic operations means a huge step up in abstraction, and optimization, and performance. GraphBLAS is what enables that. It's the difference between tensorflow and having to rewrite stochastic gradient descent for every deep net architecture you want to test.

For why somebody would write an entire article about counting triangles, check out the youtube video above. It's the answer to one of the first questions from the audience.

It's ok not to care about graphs, but why come in to a thread about graphs and say "what's the point?" Graphs are important for some areas, and not for others.

The article is not talking about the majority, but about the several thousand or so people who are homeless and about 10,000 or so more people who are prisoners.

People who want to use cannabis will use cannabis. It's trivially easy to get hold of, and it's mostly dealt with by warnings or cautions. Approximately no-one is using spice because cannabis is illegal.

Alcohol is legal, but that doesn't stop a few people from drinking litres and litres of shitty white cider or industrial vodka.

Go and talk to street homeless people sometime.
This happened to me in Rio last month. They requested I write in Portuguese and luckily I was with someone who does (and didn't need a bad Google translate conversation). I got refunded right away for what it's worth. It's pretty aggravating the driver did this to someone who tipped them at the end of the ride very generously.. wonder if I also got a bad rating too.
You're probably thinking of http://pythontutor.com/ for python. It's one of my absolute favorite instructional resources for any language.

Out of all of those xkcd is the only one I like and I don't see any ads on it... The author does writes books though.

Maybe it just doesn't need to be monetised, everyone who defends intrusive internet ads talks about no alternative - Here is the alternative: If people aren't willing to pay for it, it probably shoudln't be monetised, there are plenty of things on the internet which are free, cost little to run and don't make a profit: search, social networking and video, all decentralisable in an affordable way... they don't need to be monetised, their corporate future is short.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MitraClip:

”MitraClip was first implanted in 2003, obtained the CE mark Europe in 2008, and in 2013 was approved by the FDA. The FDA obligated the company to run post-marketing studies to confirm the safety and efficacy of the device.”

I think this is the report on those post-marketing studies.

Also, compare ”The device itself costs about $30,000” with http://www.onlinejacc.org/content/accj/60/17_Supplement/B229..., which says the device is only cost effective at that price for “patients with acute procedural success”. I don’t know what “acute procedural success” means. Taking it literally it would mean that excludes patients for whom the operation wasn’t deemed a success immediately after the operation, but that would seem like cheating to me. By such logic, roulette would bring all players profits.

I'm doubtful of this premise, especially in the context of peering disputes. Here in the states, Netflix had/has serious issues with Comcast/Verizon/Centurylink not peering with their upstream providers sufficently to handle the number of video streams that needed to be carried.

This was not an issue with the last mile connection itself, but a middle mile peering problem. From the testing I have done, on certain carriers that play games like this (Deutsch Telekom in Germany, Centurylink, Verizon & others in the US, and most Asian/South American ISPs) torrenting updates to users is significantly faster than an HTTPS download from Amazon, Google Cloud & the like. Once you get a handful of seeders internal to the network, the other downloaders in that network start to get the torrent significantly faster than they would over traditional HTTPS.

If the content isn't extremely time sensitive (eg: live sports games, video calls) and is of a noteworthy size, using P2P tech to speed up downloads is not a bad idea.

To add an anecdote from my adolescence: When I was 12-15 I spent pretty much all my time indoors, playing PC games or learning how to code. I realized I hadn't visited the river I was living basically next to for atleast two years when I had to pick something up at a booth next to it. I realized there that I found the water in Star Wars Galaxies much more "realistic" than the actual river flowing by. This freaked me out so much that I took a week off of gaming and went to take walks for a week.

Exactly. It's a huge problem. A promising researcher can go from managing precisely 1 person, to have to handle a team of TA's to run a course, manage Masters and Ph.d. students, effectively working as a manager, with none of the experience or training they would get in industry. There aren't many naturals, there are a few who figure it out over time, and a lot who retreat into bullying just to cover their own inadequacies.

We are still wasting most of the human potential we already have. There is no need to seek genetic improvements at this stage.

The latter character flaw is a recipe for disaster if left unchecked over the long term. This move is good for Tesla.

Many traditional automaker executives are playing catch-up with Tesla with regards to electrification of transport. They're moving second, copying Elon Musk. There is some truth to the idea that Tesla can benefit from the experience of legacy automakers. It is why they have hired people who have such experience. Replacing the founder that the other executives are still in the process of copying though? Kind of crazy.

Especially since Tesla is not just a car company. They are making headway into utility scale energy markets, planning to get into roofing, and have a relationship which will likely help them in the disrupting-the-use-of-roads-as-primary-means-of-transport-by-the-elimination-of-traffic industry that Elon Musk is trying to get set up. It's very safe to say that the status-quo certified executives could still need to continue playing a game of following-the-leader.

While Elon Musk is saying that the only thing that matters is pace of innovation, legacy automaker executives are advocated for on the basis of their relationship with status quo. Tesla doesn't exist in a world with status quo. In a world with status quo, regulators force the automakers to acknowledge the impact of their work on climate change and they grudgingly change course. This has been happening over time. We've seen them faking emission test results. We've seen them producing compliance vehicles so that they have access to markets that are trying to convince them to actually do the right thing.

So yeah, I'm in total agreement with you.
Why would people be punished for things they say (people can't do things online, unless you re talking about remotely controlling a robotic arm).

Ask HN: How do you decide when you've done enough work for the day?
I'm a relatively junior software engineer, a little over a year out from university, with a cushy remote job working for big-co. And I never know how much work to do on a given day.

Right now, my daily rule of thumb is to try to have my butt in the seat for ~8 hours. I clock out at 6 and stay disciplined so I don't end up overworking as many remoters do. The main disadvantage of this strategy is that it just doesn't align with the reality of the job. Some days I work on something complex and want to work more hours, while others I'll knock out a few small things and want to call it early.

Strategies I'd like to use but can't:

- Show up and leave with my coworkers. We're a remote team, and have a few serious workaholics on the team (not to mention the issue of timezones).

- Leave when I've done my tasks. This might work if we had actual sprints. Our reality is an endless stream bugs and features for us to work on before we launch our product, and we just grab tickets as they come. Hopefully this improves after launch.

What do you do? I want to do enough work to feel good about myself, without burning out. I have very little supervision from management, my coworkers seem to respect and like me, and I am generally productive. Help me, HN.
Those were the days. People were good and true when they feared being burned at the stake.
I think it's just that this is oldest surviving torrent. Torrents/torrent software came out around 2001, which is more than 15 years.

From your point of you, an American, sure. From the point of view of Chileans, I doubt the murder of democratically elected Salvador Allende aided by the CIA was good judgment, or that American judgement was better than his. From the point of view of Guatemalans I doubt the US's involvement in the coup against democratically elected Jacobo Árbenz was good judgement. The list goes on. As someone who is not American I can assure you the US government is not a better judge than the PRC or Russia, is equally as bad and in some cases, from my point of view, worse.

> Also, smoking marijuana is ok and legal.

It is illegal on a federal level. And as someone who runs a company with multi-billion-dollar National Defense contracts, which are almost certainly contingent on him holding a security clearance, it shows an incredible lack of judgement to consume marijuana publicly.
> and I should be able to destroy all proof that it's not purely a fabrication of your imagination.

But this is even more problematic. What if you don't own the thing being used as proof? Do you get to destroy it just because it could be used to incriminate you?

For example, if I take a photograph of a public non-performative event, I legally own the copyright on that photograph. The photograph itself is treated like a creative expression. So should you be able to destroy my photograph? Because the law says I own that, not you.

With Right to Be Forgotten, you might be able to have that photograph delisted from Google images, assuming you had gone through a lengthy court process based on multiple determinations of how public the information was and how harmful it was to you. But you can't come over to my house and make me delete it.

If I go onto a forum later and say, "yeah, I can prove this thing happened; here's a photograph", I haven't done anything illegal. Do you think that should be illegal? I feel like at the point where we're talking about destroying physical evidence of something, maybe this is going a little bit too far?
> Guess I get less optimistic about this sort of stuff considering the study was funded by Abbott, the company that makes the device.

I was very explicit what these inaccuracies are and that they materially affect perception - that's why I gave you examples of actual things rather than concepts. In response, you're telling me lasers are all about about being very red and polarization comes from filters. So, respectfully, I'm suggesting the discussion would make a lot more sense if you just spent five minutes refreshing your understanding of these things instead of us having a charitable interpretive dance-off.
Yes, I guess as a long time internet user it can be quite easy to forget that most of the world is still offline, and as more and more people are exposed to the web for the first time, there are masses of naieve eyeballs to exploit, they've yet to acclimatise and grow protective barrier that is aware of the very real possibility that websites you visit are trying to manipulate you.

I wonder what the web will be like after the internet is done spreading and the only new users are young ones... perhaps websites will start behaving more respectfully out of necessity despite any lack of moral standards.

> If heroin and morphine were legalized

Addiction and abuse rates would skyrocket, though. With an availability similar to alcohol, that would begin a plague that would envelop the country with astonishing speed. The problem with those drugs now is already a big problem, but if you put them within reach of every single adult you could bring a country to its knees.

Yes, legalizing them would be a boon for commercial interests, but that is practically the only people who would benefit from this. Oh, and drug treatment industries! They'd become as ubiquitous as mental health businesses. Big Constipation would replace Big Tobacco.

> prevent deaths from adulterated drugs.

The influx of death and destruction introduced by that legalization would make adulterated drug deaths look quaint.

Whatever the solution to this problem is, it won't be full-scale legalization. These drugs that are almost impossible to use responsibly, and are guaranteed to be highly addictive.
