The troubles don't show themselves on the consumer side, they show up on the labor side. Monopsony makes it hard to find competing job offers when all the competing stores have been closed.
The problem was that TellTale promised games in which your decisions actually affect the game world as opposed to just slight changes in character dialog with a game on rails. While they did improve this mechanic a little in later games, it was still too little too late. I'm pretty sure it was this that affected their sales long term. In their defense, very few games are able to actually pull this off despite their marketing.
I can definitely confirm the ECC support on TR cpus. I've got one running right now and have had it report errors and corrections when trying to overclock things (I don't know what I'm doing with that so it's nice to have it warn me that I'm at the limit).
I use Fastmail and the interface is so good that I can say this solution is really crappy.
Assessing software engineering candidates
It's complicated I think. Behind the keyboard, there generally aren't the same social pressures (due to anonymity and often others aren't directing their thoughts at you as an individual, but rather as a group) and time constraints to organize thoughts that come with oral communication.

This, in many cases, allows for better and more rational discussions. On the other hand, when people do directly address on the internet behind the veil of anonymity, the lack of social pressures also removes disincentives to act like hooligans.

It's different form of communication and has its advantages and disadvantages.
Your downside is limited to being laid off, so it is limited. They can't go after your personal assets if the company goes bankrupt, or claw back past wages.
And a couple of tangential points: 1) Being laid off because your company went under is not a bad black mark on your resume. 2) You have the freedom to terminate your employment at any time just like the company can. That's very different from slavery.

From page 26 of the NHTSA's report[1]:

>The Model State Policy confirms that
States retain their traditional responsibilities
for vehicle licensing and registration, traffic
laws and enforcement, and motor vehicle
insurance and liability regimes while outlining
the Federal role for HAVs.

Surely, liability for Level 4 autonomy vehicles would be borne by the car's manufacturer, rather than the operator. Is that maybe one of the more controversial aspects separating the definitions of Level 4 and 5 autonomy? I'm surprised this would remain unregulated at the federal level.

There is truth to it. A friend of mine used the HUGE opportunity Alphabet os missing by failing to offer a service that allows to buy from vendors through Google only ising your Goovle account. Combine that with dropship and you have a potential Amazon-Killer in your pocket.

Chrysler's trying it all over again with their "turn the dial" transmission control. One of the basic rules of interface design is that the larger the effect of the button on the system the bigger and more attention grabbing you make it (like in an industrial machine where you have a big red button that requires a lot of force to activate and makes an impressive sound when you hit it and a green one that behaves similarly). The push button shifter and knob shifter both violate that.

No, Gorsuch was a conservative jurist replacing the most conservative jurist who has been on the court in recent history with the possible exception of Clarence Thomas.

Supreme Court Nominations used to be non partisan, and one might note that there is one party that made them not so.

The 60 vote rule was removed by Reid when the democrats had control -- for all other federal appointments. The republicans merely adopted the rule he put in place for SCOTUS appointments as well.

I don't have much of a post history here, so not sure where you're coming from.
You mean, copy exactly what the same company did with Marvell, the most successful and profitable film franchise in history? You didn't think that those movie plots were original did you? Infinity Gauntlet is from the 70s.
> Justice Ginsberg said she and her husband would move to New Zealand if the Republican candidate became President. That is coming from the reigning liberal champion on the court. Honestly, I think she has set the bar as far as irresponsible partisan remarks are concerned.

Earlier today, it was reported that Trump thought that a news clip of an old missile launch was a preemptive nuclear strike by North Korea, and that Lindsey Graham had to dissuade him from taking action.

We all knew that shit like this was going to happen before the election! Trump is not any sort of typical candidate. He is an absolute train wreck of a public figure, probably has dementia, and is completely unsuited for any form of office, let alone the Presidency. There is a non-zero chance that he will lead the country to war or outright ruin during his term, and probably not intentionally. The Republican party has stood behind him, 100%.

This is not a matter of ideology, but of the barest of common sense. To say nothing, or to pretend this is business as usual, is utterly bonkers.

>This is not how probability works. Password rotation is intended to prevent long term compromises from existing due to a leaked password. I'd debate if this actually has any effect, but that's another matter entirely.

Yes it is. Let's up the number to 1000 passwords per day. That means that I can check all passwords in the space in 1000 days, or 3 years. In other words, after 1000 days, there is a 100% chance I can access your account.

If on the other hand, you change your password to a new, random password each day, I have a 1/1000 chance of guessing it each day. Then after 1000 days, I have a 1 - (1 - 1/1000)^1000 chance[1] of knowing your password. That is, each day, I guess your password with P = .1%, so there's a 99.9% chance I don't. Then after 2 days, there's a 99.9% chance for day one, and of the remaining 99.9, there's a 99.9% chance I don't, continue on for 1000 days, and there's a 63.2% chance you ever accessed my account, not 100%.

In short, it converts the password cracking attempts form being correlated to uncorrelated over a long time scale.

[1]: As an aside, note that in this example that is ~1 - 1/e.
If you're not directly profiting from the acquisition, then this is only barely a lateral move, with more work and responsibility (so not really lateral at all).

I would tread carefully: if it's a matter of the heart, that factors in, but: I would attempt to get guarantees from the acquirers before making the move in terms of work/life balance, length of engagement, etc.

It's more likely I'd take them on as a side client, charge per unit of work, but offer documentation and migration work for a (fairly large) fixed fee, and do that while you explore future gigs.

YMMV.
>The free 2 day shipping

The dark pattern the retail side now seem to employ is listing everything under the 2-day shipping Prime label, but not _actually_ shipping it for several days to weeks. Sure, they technically honor 2-day shipping once they actually ship, but as an end user, if something listed as 2-day shipping takes 8 days to be delivered... it isn't actually 2 day shipping.

It used to be go to amazon, enable the "Only Show Prime items" filter, and BAM, get your item 2 days later. Now the prime label is completely useless. You've got to manually investigate each option to see when it will actually be delivered. God help you if you mindlessly decide to change the color on the product page and expect the shipping date to hold.

Politics may never have been pure and things today aren't as bad as they were at certain points in human history, but I am honestly surprised that people here aren't recognizing that there has been a pretty stark change in how politics have been progressing in the last decade versus the several previous decades. The polarization has increased drastically and the civility of political discourse and faith in institutions has dropped considerably.

A prime example is that the US is on the verge of confirming a man on to the supposedly apolitical Supreme Court that says under oath that his political opponents have created a vast conspiracy to bring him personally down. If that man is telling the truth, that is an awful moment in political history. If that man is lying, that is an awful moment in political history. It doesn't matter which side of that issue you are on, but something is happening here that would be unthinkable a couple decades ago.
Hadoop Needs to Be a Business, Not Just a Platform
Ask HN: Why don't computer keyboards have a 'forwardspace' and a backspace char
I understand the history of the backspace and delete keys, but it strikes me as odd and inefficient that keyboards (especially software based ones) do not have a dedicated key that can remove to the right of the cursor as well: a 'forwardspace' key if you will. Has any major OS vendor / hardware keyboard manufacturer attempted this? Was it part of keyboards before the QWERTY adoption? (note: the insert/overwrite would be similar but not functionally the same as this proposal because a forwardspace and backspace would be 'equals', at lesst in terms of names and prominence on a keyboard.

And how do backspace characters work in right-to-left languages like Arabic, Japanese, etc.

Google leadership, up and down, is filled with people who are of Jewish and Israeli heritage (or are married to them). What did you expect? Find me a Palestinian in any of their leadership team.

I'm not suggesting they're intentionally doing this with google maps, but lacking a Palestinian voice, it's easy for Jewish and Israeli bias to take over.

Very fun read. Though by focusing (with great humor and nuance) on the "Others" and their faults, it perhaps misses an important question (imo) namely, why does other people's bragging affect me negatively? Why do I not feel genuinely happy for other people's accomplishments, or just joyfully notice their childlike attempts at feeling better about themselves through social approval?

I believe there's been a bit of a shake up since 90s - at the time secret service got the hacker beat, because: wirefraud. But also the FBI, because: felony crossing state borders.

The nsa were signals intelligence first, but their civilian mandate had (has) to do with protecting national interests in the "signaling" world (ie: the Internet etc). Arguably they were never very good at that... ("Snowden", "crypto backdoor"...).

But I believe "cyberspace" is now accepted as an actual thing, and so falls naturally under the FBI (cross border, spying on us soil) and police ("crime").
I live in the sprawl of Houston. If I need things from a couple of local stores that close in early evening, it may take longer for me to get by the stores for pickup than to have items shipped from Amazon even if everything I want is in stock. Ordering online for store pickup helps.
Lower maximum clock speeds mean you have more FO4s to play with and potentially makes the fan-out issues in wide designs a bit more manageable. Decode I expect to be pretty easy, as long as your branch predictor is on target the power costs just grow linearly with decode width when all your instructions start at nice 32-bit boundaries.

Mostly I'm curious about how complete the bypass network is on their functional units and if execution is clustered like the POWER8. The width doubling in the A series does remind me of the POWER 7 to 8 transition.

Renaming is also apparently a major constraint on design width in many cases but I'm not so familiar with that.

I was skeptical, but after seeing that notification texts are hidden by default until I look at the phone, I was then quickly sold on the value.

The added screen real state due to the lack of a home button compensates for the required notch and then some.

Fate Stay Night doesn't really branch. It just makes you play it 3 times for 3 different versions of the story. There's very little interactivity, it's more like an author wrote 3 drafts of the same novel where different things happen in each draft than a work of interactive fiction.
It seems obvious, to me at least, that within the next decade, desktop/laptop/server makers will jump ship to ARM. Cheaper, faster, lower power chips with fanless designs and longer battery life. I can't for the life of me figure out why Intel's stock is valued so highly today. What am I missing?
I think everybody understood that "viola" was a typo.
The “upside” is that it’s never been easier to not play AAA games. Between derivative content rehashes yearly, insane microtransaction schemes, content cut into pieces and locked behind multiple season passes and dlc, and the endless busywork “gameplay” designed to maiximize engagement and money over time at the direct expense of fun... fuck it.

Look at the new Assassin’s Creed game, which is a reskin of Origins, plus a dozen pages of “buy this shit!” The xp system is rigged to make it a slog and a grind unless you buy “boosts” and it’s a giant map filled with what amount to chores. I feel badly for kids who grow up thinking that skinner boxes connected to a publisher’s bank account are what games have to be, but I’m not touching that stuff.

Meanwhile there are great mid-tier games, indie games, and the very occasional AAA effort that doesn’t punish the player for playing. It only really gets hard when something like CDPR makes great games that don’t monetize outrageously, but also famously treat their employees like dirt.

I do see a future in very high end & privately owned cars, which will quite possibly generate even higher margins for some manufacturers.

No, you wouldn't index from two processes concurrently, but for Emacs to read your mail in mu4e and for you to concurrently issue "mu index" on the command-line two processes ("mu server" and "mu index") would need to poen the same Xapian database read-write at the same time, and just like SQLite Xapian doesn't support that.
If they wanted to cut ties for a different reason, execs could have just said "find a problem with some supermicro boards, no matter how much it costs to do so, and never repeat this conversation".

I did read it, so if it was mentioned I missed the part where Bloomberg stated if it was targeted at specific orders and thus customers or if it was seeded into the supply chain to see what sticks.

So, if you know the answer, why not just providing the information? ;-)
Now possible as in mu4e would need to use some API that's not in a release version of Emacs, or is it more transparent than that?
Apart from that not being remotely what's being said, HN is not one person, it's a lot of different people with different opinions, commenting on different articles.

on a national level, the case-shiller index should give you a good baseline for how a home's price should appreciate over the long term. homes should basically trend with inflation and, to a lesser extent, population growth (until space or other resources become a constraint hundreds of years from now).

hwever, local market conditions dictate the volatility around that trend line. SF, for example, is space-constrained, demand-driven, and limited by zoning and other regulations, so house prices will be high relative to historical trends.

appraisers use 3 methods to triangulate the current valuation of a house: (1) cost approach (how much it costs to buy the bare land and build on it), (2) sales comparison (finding recent sales for homes similar to the one you're valuing), and (3) income approach (typically the discounted cash flow of rental income). how these three approaches are combined to come to a final value is more art than science.

basically, just like economic bubbles, you can only know for sure after-the-fact if something was overvalued. you don't have enough statistical data to know if something is currently overvalued rather than within the normal volatility of the asset price.
