The CMB spectrum does seem to require dark matter and it's a real problem for MOND. The point most MOND physicists keep trying to make is that dark matter has it's own share of problems but no one has discarded it as a theory yet.

A shameful secret: I firmly believe that the moment I became a programmer was when I discovered Debug.Print in VBA in some elderly version of Excel (97, probably) while bodging pretty charts together for someone to print and fax to someone else.

I'm willing to bet that I am not alone.

Don't be too hard on Excel - some of today's clueless spreadsheet monkeys will be real bona-fide developers in fifteen years.
Wasn't disputing that such people exist, which is why I said I understood it was important in my comment.

The point was that someone replied originally by saying the need for space bar to pause a video trumped everything else, and my goal was to emphasize how there might be _utterly gigantic_ subpopulations of streaming service customers for whom such a feature would literally never be relevant. So that perhaps it's not a useful feature by which to judge the overall quality of different providers, even if you happen to be one of the rare people who really relies on it.
I expect most businesses have already made significant resource allocation decisions for work in 2019 so introducing previously unaccounted for work would be seen as "anti-business".
Amazon account email addresses disclosed by employee to third-party seller
I have to agree - the search function is, and always has been, shockingly bad - ypu have to be too specific, and there just doesn't seem to be any reasoning to how it orders results.

One answer is parsing ambiguities.

https://german.stackexchange.com/questions/1705/w%c3%b6rter-...

(replaced with better link)

English has tons of ambiguities, including many possible parsing ambiguities of this kind, but written English would have many more ambiguities without a delimiter between words.
One additional point I'll make -- if the company baulks or treats you poorly if you ask for market-rate think long and hard about whether you want to work for them. It usually indicates a toxic internal culture.
1. Virtually nobody signs zones today, so this is a moot point.

2. Not all DV-issuing CAs reliably verify DNSSEC, so it's even mooter.

3. Even if everyone signed their zones today, the Five Eyes intelligence agencies (NSA, ASD, GCHQ, GCSB, and CSE) have de facto (and, in some cases, de jure) control over the most important TLD zones.

4. The Web PKI already has countermeasures in place to detect misissuances, and those countermeasures have already resulted in the deaths of several of the largest CAs; there is ample evidence that current Web PKI surveillance is up to the task.

5. Even with secure DNS resolution, DV cert verification processes don't have a secure channel, and remain vulnerable to traffic interception attacks; for instance, even with DNSSEC, BGP attacks can straightforwardly trick CAs.

6. There are countermeasures to DNS spoofing that are simpler to deploy than DNSSEC, especially in the limited settings needed for DV cert verification; for instance: multi-perspective DNS and DNS over HTTPS.

7. There is already work happening to link CAs directly to registrars using RDAP to bypass DNS entirely for domain validation. In addition to being more reliable than DNSSEC, RDAP is also drastically simpler to deploy, and doesn't require anyone to sign their zones.

DV certificate issuance and SMTP-TLS were the last two mainstream drivers for DNSSEC adoption. The Web PKI has worked around the problem, and, with SMTP-STS (a standard whose specific, stated rationale is to work around DNSSEC), so have the largest email providers.

In fact: nothing depends on secure domain resolution, all meaningful Internet protocol security work over the last two decades has been premised on DNS being insecure, and DNSSEC is done. Stick a fork in it.
Agree with Doug's response, but wanted to quickly say thanks for pointing us at the SDK layers thing - will dig into it!

We spent a fair bit of time building out this pretty unique node-based pipeline architecture, where the HMD is effectively just a sink node. We made an attempt to make text / content more legible by the way of an FXAA implementation, which would have limited performance impact as compared to something like MSAA - but it definitely can get a lot better. Will dig into that stuff, and hopefully we can improve it further!

Facebook's Joel Kaplan faces Kavanaugh critics at emotional town hall
Huh. My iPhone X works perfectly with FaceID, since iOS11, clipped to my bicycle handlebars. I swipe up, glance down, and it recognizes me + bike helmet + polarized sport sunglasses + blue sky behind me. Seems like that's about as tough a use case as it could get short of a scarf covering my face (in which case I don't really think I want FaceID to work anyway).
Lots of great comments here already. I realized I didn't really know what 'playing by ear' means! (Jazz pianist here) I've almost never heard musicians saying that. Like people have written, it means many different things. Such as, playing a song with other people when you don't know it. Some jazz musicians I've known are legendary for that, seeming to not need to rehearse like mere mortals, they turn up to the gig and play perfectly.

What does it feel like? Like talking, walking. Something you can do without thinking about it. Well, sometimes I notice my fingers are playing music (on a table, wall, my legs, I can hear it on the 'piano in my head') and I didn't realize! I don't know who that was playing.

Any time I hear music (unless it's super-fast, or using strange tuning etc) I can see every note being played on the piano in my head. The instant I hear a chord, I already know what it is. (I guess perfect pitch helps with that; I don't know how people manage without it) And transcribing helps with learning rhythms, so you just know what a rhythm is (i.e. how you would write it down) when you hear it.

Some very famous musicians e.g. Hendrix, Erroll Garner, Sinatra apparently couldn't read/write music, but I don't think it's been much studied exactly what they knew or how they thought about music. In jazz anyway, most of what you know (about melody, rhythm, harmony etc) is never put into words - you learn it from the music - and it would be useless trying to put it into words. I can teach in an hour most of the 'official' music theory. Everyone should have their own ideas about, say, what scale to play over a minor chord, because what sounds good is different for everyone.

People learn jazz by listening, and by transcribing tunes, solos, arrangements (if they're complex enough that you can't learn by playing along, which is most things.) and playing them yourself. By imitation. So maybe learn to read/write music, then you can write complex things out. Although, hell, I don't know, maybe it's better training your ear and never transcribing. But that would take soo long. Learning stuff that is really fast is pretty much impossible to hear/learn without writing it out.

'Which keys to press' is like 'How do you know what computer keys to type?' - when you learn a language, or anything, your brain puts things together in bigger and bigger chunks, so eventually you can think in units of sentences or paragraphs or whole speeches. Or in music, you think 8 or 16 bars at a time, or a whole phrase, or chord progression etc. Or apparently in chess, masters just have better chunks than the rest of us; they can do much more useful thinking with the same number of thoughts. Exactly like a high-level programming language!

If someone did that to me, my reaction would probably end rather badly. I value my hearing very much. The sheer idiocy of not even giving the slightest thought to the consequences is extremely disturbing.

It's terrifyingly easy to permanently wreck someone's eyesight or hearing with a high power laser pointer or an airhorn.

It's funny how much variation of opinion there is about this. I find Netflix's search and discovery functionality to be borderline unusable. I get so frustrated when using the app, and many times have opened it with the intention of searching for something to watch, only to get so exhausted wading through crap that is not interesting that I just exit from the app and do something else.

Their algorithms heavily favor their own original content, and they clearly have stopped giving a shit about movies in general, and focus almost entirely on whatever latest and greatest darling shows they produce.

Very sincerely, the information retrieval experience of Amazon is the main thing that makes Amazon significantly superior, instead of just being a little better on small touches.

I should also point out that I pretty much hate Amazon as a company, and frankly it pains me to admit all this, but very truly they are running circles around Netflix with their streaming service.

Microsoft could extend Android with an open sourced replacement for the various Google Play Services.

Paying for Microsoft to host a replacement services layer for your app on Azure would be cheaper than paying Google a 30% cut once you got past a certain use threshold.

As a bonus you can mitigate Google's decision to walk back Android being open and simultaneously give people who have decided to un-Google their lives an alternative to moving to iOS which would risk them moving to a Mac at the same time.

German is not that hard, specially coming from English, which is a germanic language itself.

The Michel Thomas learning audio programs are fantastic for getting a grasp of the language.

If you read and read and watch and watch TV,without analyzing what you do you get naturally the feeling of the language, without the suffering.

Mark Twain did what 99% of Germans,Austrians,Swiss are never going to do. Stop and overthink it too much.

That was probably the most reasonable way to learn German outside Germany in 1880. It is not today.

If you are interested in learning any language, I recommend the book "Fluent forever". It tells you how to start leaning a language and all the resources to learn on your own.
This is really cool and i had a similar idea awhile back but didn't quite find enough validation. Congrats on shipping!

I'm familiar with that keynote, and I've written about it before. Long story short, the Go developers never tested a generational GC with bump allocation in the nursery. Without that, they haven't given generational GC a fair shake.

Regarding JavaScriptCore, they are constrained by compatibility with native code that takes pointers into the GC heap, particularly iTunes. So the situation is not really comparable. Nevertheless, Filip has done a better job with reducing allocation overhead in JSC than the Go team has, because the "bump'n'pop" fast path is inlined into allocation sites. It's still a throughput loss over a pure bump allocator, because it has a little more bookkeeping to do [1]—but not by much. Note also that JavaScriptCore has—you guessed it—a generational GC [2], though a non-moving one.

If Go doesn't switch to a generational GC, they should at least adopt bump'n'pop.

Applying Agile Concepts in an Early Childhood Education Setting
I'm in the UK, and we get free next day delivery with a Prime sub.

In 3 years, we've had only a handful of deliveries that haven't arrived on time. I only cared about 2 of those, and on both occasions they gave me a free month of Prime after I sent a single, short email saying delivery was late. Pretty amazing customer service, especially for the UK!

Amazon isn't always the cheapest (altho they usually are, or are very close), but their customer service is great, and if I have issues they make returns really simple. This is the reason I buy more stuff from Amazon than from anywhere else.

I should add, I've never (knowingly) had any counterfeits from Amazon, and don't personally know of anyone who has, but it seems from HN it's a much bigger issue in the US than in the UK.
I went to a university where many courses are years behind. HN exposed me to more new technology than I experienced during my entire time at school, and kept me up to date on modern programming.

On a more personal level, I have found much advice in various Ask HN threads that has really impacted me. Everything from career advice, to what's really important in life and how one should deal with the inevitable negative aspects of existence.
Forgive me if I'm missing something here, but could they not just... add another light? Put this _and_ another LED system for the low beams?

I would expect there is some legacy aspect to it, although Intel building the Itanium (no legacy restrictions) just made a box that used more watts per instruction than their 32 bit line and wasn't that much better off. That said, things like the 'half carry' flag, segment pointers, and a large power hungry FPU don't help the Intel story.

I expect the primary difference one will find is that Intel has more "large" cores in their chips (full fledged cores) and the comparable instructions have some "gotchas" (like the flag mention) which make them harder to retire early in the pipeline. Toshiba made a funny comment at one of the Microprocessor forums that for their microprocessors, if you only compare the instructions that both they and Intel implement, the Toshiba processor is better in every way.

What is clearly true though is that compatibility aside, ARM chips are becoming serious contenders in the desktop/laptop space sooner than I expected them too.
He got rid of the requirement for government agencies to report their Y2K preparedness measures. Faint praise but it's something.
> Can't believe I'm seeing Ali Express compared to Amazon, and apparently in a favorable way.

I said Ali Express was OK. As in "meh" worth a look. True, stuff arrives a month to two months later. I bought the exact compression socks advertised on Amazon from Ali Express - Amazon price: $16 each. Ali Express: $3.75 each including shipping. Ali Express is catching up.

A lot of products on Amazon are essentially a branding function (name tag) applied to a functionally finished product. The Chinese manufactures probably knew that. With Ali Express, that equation is changing.

> Maybe not if you consistently buy things that are exorbitant to ship like ping pong tables or 6 foot ladders...

The point is Walmart would have shipped it to me for cheaper. Now I know better... Shop around first and then order.
Easy peasy. Everybody should just use SQL Server Express via VBA and ODBC to store and retrieve data for their spreadsheets.

More seriously, It would be nice if MS added a better way to manage data tables outside of sheets in Excel. They have the underlying technologies to do it. It just needs a low friction UI.
Agreed. Most Excel stuff is extremely well documented on Stack Overflow, numerous blog sites, and message boards. I wrote a fair amount of VBA today(something I've only done a few times before) and found it to be quite straightforward.
Isn't linear algebra one of the other things GPUs are good at?

I think you're also looking at the release prices for the CPUs rather than the current ones. Using today's prices from Newegg, the Threadripper 1950X is $699, the (newer/faster) 2950X is $859, meanwhile the i9-7900X is $1275, up from its $989 release price presumably due to Intel's current manufacturing issues. And the AMD processors have 60% more cores/threads with, avx notwithstanding, generally equivalent performance per thread.

I expect you're right that there are niche workloads where avx512 is a real advantage, but it's starting from a pretty deep hole on the price/performance front in general.
I'm at just under 100k/year, with both a discover and Visa at 25k limits, and a MasterCard at 5k. Not quite sure how it happened. Like you I also don't carry a balance.
Except Amazon's replacement sucks pretty hard. They are consistently multiple versions behind, and you can't even use applications like native YouTube.
Why was I banned? I have never been given a clear answer.

for taking HN threads into political flamewar—not what this site is for—and ignoring a large number of requests to stop.

This is an explanation. But your explanations to me always consist of "You're posting low quality stuff."

When I asked for an explanation as to why I was rate limited for this, you hellbanned me for three months. Are you sure this is reasonable?

I think the goal of the experiment was to see whether this increases the quality of my comments. But as you can see from my comment history, the ban has murdered it. I’d be happy to write good comments if they are welcome. There is simply no incentive to write.

In the meantime, what did the Lisp programmer say to his Apple cddr? “I wish I had a car.”

Here’s a better one. I appear to be facing the cons-eqences of my own actions.
It's not that staggering. Use the above example. It's comparable to one thread of the 56 thread Xeon 8176.

That server CPU has a TDP of 165W. That's 2.95W per thread. So pretty much entirely on par with Apple.
Gave me massive analysis paralysis but also brought me a whole new level of bs detection. Now that I'm rolling out of paralysis I feel it'll take a lot more to distract me.

You can basically give them the recipe for anything you want and they will make it for you. You don’t have to order only what’s listed on the menu.
This really isn't possible as long as Google has exclusive agreements with most of the manufacturers. I mean, maybe they could talk Dell and HP into making Android variants, but there's no way Samsung, Motorola, LG, etc. could join that party while Google's iron grip remains. And as the other commenter pointed out, Google will heavily disrupt access to things like Gmail, YouTube, etc. for people not using "proper" Android phones.

That being said, the option may be available soon, since the EU and Russia have both fined and prohibited Google's agreements with manufacturers, and the Department of Justice is rumored to be considering opening an investigation here in the US.
Ahhh yes, getting around blocks on computer usage in middle school was the best.
