Totally agree. I am always surprised how much attention a single person can get for saying something stupid. It would be much healthier if they just got ignored.
I specifically turned off Wi-Fi for the test. Although it is possible that the phone kept it as an ip address. I don't have a way to find out.
I think that AI is just a rebranding of all automation, especially in the case where it's data driven automation. So I don't think it is something that will just pass, but will become a term for the interdisciplinary field of solving interdisciplinary problems with computers and data.

Actually it is. Only the state has the right to imprision and prosecute anyone, and the police force has the right to impose public order by force if necessary, and the military has the right to hold weapons and defend the nation's borders.

Those are all things the state has the sole right to do, and not a random citizen who just felt like it.
Fully agree, with the minor exception that I'd say it's good for them to trigger a mental alarm. Lots of spin out there...

This is a long-standing problem for the whole software industry that is largely unsolved: real separation between the user interface and other logic. In order to stay on yesterday’s (better) UI, you need to stay on yesterday’s software version, foregoing critical security and performance improvements, or rely on nasty third party hacks to bring the old UI back to the new software.

I know a lot of people who deliberately do not update their software unless forced to, because designers/developers cannot resist the urge to redo the UI every year, pointlessly moving things around and changing everything.
I have a question. I want to adopt oatpp.io, but I'm using a synchronous database driver mongo-cxx-driver. Can I still benefit from oat++'s coroutine? Also, when using coroutine, will the server be a single-thread process? or it will be a multiple thread process with each thread using coroutines (to fully utilize the cpu)?

If my server wants to visit third party rest APIs in an asynchronized way, what's the best asynchronized library to choose to make use of coroutine?

Maybe they're hoping online readers will eventually become as smart as paper readers, for whom this distinction between "signed guest commentary" and "house opinion" was clear for hundreds of years?
Yes you can totally sell new versions if they expand the engine/editor in ways that allow for new games.

However you can think of it this way. The game shipped is a point in space. The possible mods to the game are nearby points in this gamespace. Given tools dictate the work involved to get to that new point in gamespace. The better the tools the larger that isosurface is for some given max amount of work. The problem for game studios is that the things they want to sell might exist within the space that is work path accessible to the mod community.
Actually, if anyone pays any attention to Chines online space, "human flesh search" has been working for over a decade since the early dawn of the mass adoption of Internet in China.

The moral of the story is that no matter how careful one protect their identity, they always leak more than they thought they are leaking.

This is one of the perennial complaints about games. Every generation of games development has its version of "back in my day mods were easier to make" complaint.

Yet for every AAA development house that can't prioritize making public versions of their in house development tools, there are games like Minecraft that are almost nothing but modding tools pretending to be games, and getting all sorts of interesting fans doing interesting things.

Where most AAA game engines used to make modding easy but licensing to sell mods hard, there are now entire engines (Unity, Unreal) with fairly simple, linear (as opposed to exponential or worse) license systems that allow hobbyists to build with the same tools of AAA developers and license their work for resale, growing organically with their audience size rather than being constrained to artificial limits of steep license curves.

It's one of those cases where it's both better than its ever been and worse than it ever was, and you can write clickbait articles for both sides of that, but overall, unclouded by nostalgia glasses the answer is probably just that it's the same as it ever was.
This is HN, the glorified peanut gallery, but seriously, what are your ideas? I'm curious to have a discussion about them and see what others think too.
> It also has less or equal amounts compared to other languages, of course, but I dislike that aspect of those languages too :)

Yeah, thanks, I think this is at the root of a lot of it.

> It's more stuff like Option<&'a Frame<T>> or &'a mut T or ->

Yeah; some of the stuff isn't needed anymore; you can drop the : 'a s, for example. And we have been talking about allowing some more elision, so

pub struct Iter<'a, T: 'a> {
next: Option<&'a Frame<T>>,
}

could be

pub struct Iter<'_, T> {
next: Option<&Frame<T>>,
}

when all is said and done. The '_ in the signature is important so that you know it's parameterized by a lifetime, so we don't plan on ever getting more concise than that.

But how do you conduct a background check without a database of reports from people who have experienced harassment?

Unfortunately, most of the time, this gets swept under the rug. This way, at least that background check will actually reveal information once the relevant data is collected.

No, in fact, the fact that they are closely associated is one of the classic arguments against, or for only carefully limited versions of, democracy.

MIT's news article [1] has more concrete information. The NYT article is a bit misleading.

It is a College of Computing, not College of AI. Also note that MIT has Schools (School of Engineering, School of Science, etc.), not Colleges; so this will be something different.

For example, according to MIT's FAQ [2], EECS Department will likely continue to be part of School of Engineering, even as it becomes part of College of Computing.

In particular:

> The College will reorient MIT to bring the power of computing and AI to all fields of study at MIT, allowing the future of computing and AI to be shaped by insights from all other disciplines;

> Q: Why is this a college, rather than a school? What is the difference?

> A: The MIT Schwarzman College of Computing will work with and across all five of MIT’s existing schools. Its naming as a college differentiates it from the five schools, and signals that it is an Institute-wide entity: The College is designed with cross-cutting education and research as its primary missions.

> Q: What kinds of new joint academic programs or degrees are envisioned?

> A: MIT has been making progress in this direction for some time; for example, we already offer undergraduate majors that pair computer science with economics, biology, mathematics, and urban planning. The MIT Schwarzman College of Computing will allow MIT to respond to the student demand the Institute is seeing in course and major/minor selection more effectively and creatively. It will enable MIT to pursue this vision with unprecedented depth and ambition, and will give MIT’s five schools a shared structure for collaborative education, research, and innovation in computing and AI.

It is extremely difficult to avoid leaking information somewhere, as others have pointed out. Eventually there's a trail.

People often (or at least used to) share their current location on Twitter without having any idea they were doing it. Venmo payments default to public, again something that people often don't know.

And often it's not you who leaks the information but someone you know. Good luck controlling the social media presence of everyone in your family and circle of friends.
Interesting how moral fashion trends in the U.S. have changed since 2004. As I recall, in 2004, it was morally unfashionable to criticize the war effort. In 2018, it's morally unfashionable to mention the excesses of the social justice movement. Although I was much less afraid of being a heretic in 2004 than I am in 2018; I'm curious if others have similar or different experiences/opinions?

Perl is another language with a lot of features. I tend to appreciate those features, since once you know how to use them they're a huge timesaver and productivity boost. However, the more obscure/clever the feature (or application thereof), the less likely another programmer (your future self included) is going to understand it. And if you're tasked with maintaining old code written by someone (your past self included) who knew/used a different subset of the language's features than what you currently use, you're suddenly going to need to learn that subset.

So yeah. I love feature-rich languages, but caution is prudent, and I can understand why Perl or D or what have you might be too feature-rich.

I'd say that a "year of education" is a lot more quantifiable to your average person than "2 points of IQ".

IQ isn't used for anything meaningful in terms of ability or qualifications, especially since it's age-adjusted and historically has been biased against minorities/foreigners. A year of development however, is a graspable (if shocking) measure of lost opportunity/capability.
> In other words, small parties with little to no support can't just dictate their will onto the majority.

No, exactly the opposite: a minority that is structurally favored by the biases in the system of representation, can dictate their will over the objections of the majority.

It costs $25 to $35 to file a claim in small-claims court... and more if you go to the greater court system (with lawyers and such).

If you're worried about getting your $20 back, then its counter-productive to use the courts. As such, a cheaper automatic mechanism is just simply going to be more useful to any micro-transaction.

------------

Non-court mechanisms are the typical: A call to customer service for Amazon almost-always results in the money being returned. Same with Ebay. These are the mechanisms that can be automated.

Courts are needed to settle serious disputes. But the $5 battery pack that doesn't work right... or some other item that was damaged during shipping... that's something you might want to use the automatic escrow over.

To your first rebuttal: you say white genocide is a conspiracy theory, which is an interesting point to make given the charge you make in your 5th paragraph. Your shrill tenor leaves me with the impression that you are shooting from the hip because you are excited about an opportunity to "bash the fasc." I humbly suggest you supress this urge if only for tactical expediency. It feels like you are implying that whites cannot be the recipients of genocide (which is false both logically and historically), but more frustrating is you are denying an active genocide (per the UN definition) in South Africa.

Your second rebuttal sidesteps the objective fact that suppressed minorities do not commit genocide when it comes to "the record" (Indigenous populations of North America are a great example, but their are many more). You are projecting upon me the guilt you feel for a history you choose to interpret. It is morally questionable and academically dishonest to blame color groups en masse for any action. Whites are not responsible for Hitler just as blacks are not responsible for the Rwanda genocide. Only people shoehorning history into a political narrative find utility in racinated guilt complexes.

Your third paragraph exposes just how little of my OP you comprehended before both making sweeping judgements as well as making the effort to explain what I am to a third party. If you are marshalling forces, economic or strategic, it always pays to know who stands with or against your enemy/foe. This is such a simple concept that to break it down further would be insulting to both of us.

The fourth paragraph is titillating. I get the feeling you are suggesting there is anything like parity between the funding on the Left and the Right in the US which is preposterous. There are many examples, but the Arizona Senate race is a good one(Sinema vs. McSally). To your scare quotes, I love this kind of bait: as if somehow pointing out that the US's most politically active, wealthiest subgroup with the highest IQ is engaged, wealthy and smart is antisemitism. More to the point, both sides (all sides) engage in political theater in a democracy; when your side does it is necessary and when your foe does it isn't. Our democracy is pay to play (all democracies are, really) and I do not begrudge the Left's playing, though it is comical just how wealthy the "party of the people" is.

Fifth statement: as a historian, this is the worst. Look up the etymology of the term holocaust. The idea that the Jewish genocide was the first (or worst) is incredibly disrespectful as well as dishonest. Genocide does occur, has occurred, and will continue to ocur.

The post was a very dark satire about how futile it is in this era (or any, really) to think we can respect sovereignty and fulfill R2P. Each Step was pulled from a real world incident, and the only one referencing the Jews/Israelis specifically was the one about deluging the UN with motions, which has been done to them by the real Holocaust deniers. I can go point by point, but I'm out of space here. Lmk booboo.

Perhaps with the definition of anarchy as chaotic (which is a different definition to the left-wing one) and with "mob violence" also being disorganized, you would be right. But there's no reason why a mob can't be democratically legitimized, and indeed legitimized in the same way (or an even stronger way) than the current states legitimize themselves.

The definition of violence does not speak of the law. In fact, to say that the law can't be violent assumes that the law is good. But I'm sure we can both name states and laws which are unjust. If someone unjustly harms you, is that not a form of violence? If violence is oppression, does it not follow that the current state of affairs with widespread structural violence is oppressive, and oppression must be opposed by any means necessary?

Again, I'm no advocate of violence, but the idea that it is never justified is only nearly just as ignorant as the idea that it is justified only so long as the state exercises it.
In addition to that, OP said they got less equity because they were "remote".

Still doesn't make it accurate to attribute it to 'The Guardian'.

And still, even a publication with a strong "house perspective", like The Guardian, doesn't limit itself to publishing only commentaries it fully endorses. I know this is confusing to online readers, and in some cases poor design by the outlets feeds it further, but outlets like this have long tradition of publishing things they don't fully, or even partially, agree with.

Roubini's in the news – just testified for the US Congress – so his perspective is worth understanding, separate from any publications' own beliefs. (And The Guardian is likely to have some sympathy for his opinion, but even there – wrong to attribute Roubini's signed words to the publication.)
With YouTube I have noticed more and more videos require "age verification" which means forced log in. Just turns me off to be honest. Because first of all, anyone can create an email address and sign up, including my teen kid. So no it is not an age verification but a tracking system. If I am at my moms or a friends and using YouTube I don't want to sign into their potentially compromised pc with my credentials(sadly no yubikey at this time). Plus my password is like 20 long and random generated so I have no chance of remembering it. So I get to these videos and I am blocked from watching it without putting in an effort so I clearly can be tracked. I wait for the day people ditch YouTube for peer tube and the few videos I have in mind to future create, will be straight to peer tube not YouTube. My motivations are to share my knowledge not make any money from it.
i do keep using xib, because they’re confined to one viewcontroller, and it makes it more possible to split to work between people.

storyboard are meant to design workflow, so at least two screen but often more than that. The more you put screens in the same storyboard, the more the chances of a git merge issue.

Git merge on storyboard aren’t a minor issue, they can take someone about an hour a day every day for the duration of the project, since most work on an iphone app is correlated with GUI changes.

( and then again it gets worse the more screens you have in a single storyboard).

I personnaly didn’t think it was a problem until i had to manage a team of 11 ios developers working in parallel on a single app in rush mode. In that case storyboard are simply out of question.
