What I remember reading of the Air France flight was that both people flying understood perfectly well the situation, and had plenty of time to get out of it, but one panicked and tried to pull up even though that was exactly the wrong thing to do. The other problem was that no one else realised that one of them was trying to pull up and the plane averaged the actions of the two sticks (pull up and dive) causing effectively zero net action. (Other planes feedback each stick's action to the other so the other person would soon have realised what was going on.) They had so long to fix the problem that the captain (who had been sleeping) had time to wake up and enter the cockpit, and he finally managed to coax out the information that one of the copilots was trying to pull up, and for them to stop. By that point they were only seconds from the water and it actually was too late.
So far I haven't.
Last time they migrated from a niche instruction set to the dominant instruction set in the PC and server space however.
That is not comparable to a migration from the dominant instruction set to a niche instruction set, which a migration from x86 to ARM would be in the current computing landscape.

Last time, the Mac platform basically existed in isolation, thus the only problem was that apps for this platform had to be recompiled. This time, the Mac is no longer isolated - millions of developers write client- and server-side applications on Macs that are to be run on mostly x86-based servers, and their toolchain implicitly relies on the architecture being the same on dev and prod machines. That is not to say that it's impossible to change the architecture of the dev machines to something else - it's just a huge additional drawback that was not to be considered at all back then in the PowerPC->x86 transition.

These two facts tend to get downplayed or overlooked pretty frequently when it comes to the "ARM-based MacBooks" discussion, but I consider them fairly substantial and they dampen my enthusiasm for such a transition quite a lot.
And a weld executed properly with the same filler material acts more or less like a single piece of metal (minus any issues with the local heating of the pieces.

That’s kind of the point of low interest rates isn’t it? The idea is that this encourages money to move around the economy instead of sitting there accumulating interest.
Nice job! Would expect more implementation details from the article though. "Pattern-matching capabilities" is not very descriptive.
You've gotta do that remapping anyway when you enable the APIC. See: https://wiki.osdev.org/APIC

> masking all interrupts and remapping the IRQs. Masking all interrupts disables them in the PIC. Remapping is what you probably already did when you used the PIC: you want interrupt requests to start at 32 instead of 0 to avoid conflicts with the exceptions. You should then avoid using these interrupt vectors for other purposes. This is necessary because even though you masked all interrupts on the PIC, it could still give out spurious interrupts which will then be misinterpreted from your kernel as exceptions.
StackOverflow being a wiki is at substantial odds with the way answers are selected.

If StackOverflow is a wiki, then the best answer to a question should be determined by the community, not the asker, and needs to be able to evolve and change over time.

However, StackOverflow simultaneously insists questions can't be duplicated while making answer selection immutable and controlled by the asker. This results in a suboptimal experience.

Here is an example question highlighting this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/884177/how-can-i-determi...

I currently have the best answer to the question "How can I determine what font a browser is actually using to render some text?". The answer I gave was the best answer in 2010. Things have changed a lot since then, and my answer is no longer the best one on that page.

_But no one can change the best answer, which is insane!_ As a result, you see best answers to old questions being turned into community wikis edited to include better answers in the thread, rather than those answers being selected.
It was something I built for myself in the first place (and I do still actively use it). Showed it to one of my dev-friends, he said it looked cool so I thought: "why not work a little bit more on it and share it with the world?".
"it requires a certain kind of person"

So, is it kind of like if you desire to be a politician (or any position of power), you are definitely not the kind of person who should be a politician?
7 New Venture Scenarios That Rarely Attract Investors

Mutual funds can be actively managed also. Hedge funds are a riskier investment: they are more opaque, can do more exotic things. But pension funds are sophisticated investors and should be able to make intelligent decisions about using them as part of a portfolio.
Awesome. It's the first CoC for a FOSS project which sets the plank for good behaviour high enough!
I agree - there's not much of a springboard for discussion here. A lot of fantastic articles are excerpts from books and a lot of fascinating interviews come from books, but this is just a very thin summary of an interesting sounding book.
From my experience, this is another big one:

Does management trust its developers?

Developer jobs are in high demand, so a good employee isn't going to stick around if management doesn't show that they trust them. Some evidence of a lack trust:

- strict deadlines unrelated to customer needs
- very detailed and strict reporting
- frequent meetings to discuss progress on milestones
- strict work hours
- limited "work at home" opportunities

Developers like to get in control of their codebases, so non-technical management stepping in too often can kill productivity and this job satisfaction, which can lead developers to look elsewhere.
Density is important for the fab. Power consumption and clock speeds are something that can be tuned per design even for the same process.
"... over a journalist most people haven't heard of before. Something is unusual and I feel there is more to the story and more to the motivation to push the story at this point in time."

The victim was a reporter for the Washington Post and so it doesn't surprise me that his peers in the press are driving the story more than other stories.

Not only do they have a personal connection to this individual but his death is a particular affront to their power and their role in the political process - and they have a weapon to wield in response.

Saddam Hussein wasn't assassinated. He was captured, tried, and executed by other Iraqis. We can argue about the legitimacy of Iraq's criminal justice system but that's far from being an assassination.

A similar situation applied to Gaddafi.

Two different remappings for two different devices. It doesn't matter what you did with the 8259 once you disable it (which is like two IO instructions). Might as well do it all once is my point.
I looked up the project from your submission history. It seems like you're marketing it to developers who are making single page apps as freelancers? It seems like that person would be ideally positioned to just hack their own thing together (or at least think that they could) and not need your product. And since it's cheap, it kind of signals that it won't be hard to do.

The comment on "go for enterprise" is a great one IMO. A big company wouldn't mind spending $thousands plus $250/mo to "make sure they aren't stealing our IP" even if that's an extremely low-probability event.

Recently I have really started noticing this exact problem. Every answer (usually from closer to 2010) I have looked at is recommending using jQuery, even though there are perfectly fine ways of doing it without jQuery in 2018.

>>When it comes to pension funds, investing in anything volatile like hedge funds is an incredibly irresponsible thing to do.

Ideally.

But then you have things like: https://www.mercurynews.com/2016/11/01/bart-janitor-grossed-...

and look at stories here: https://hn.algolia.com/?query=pensions&sort=byPopularity&pre...

Mostly unions graciously award over time work, and other benefits to people about to retire in the last years. Since the pension benefits are based on the benefits and pay in the last years, You now have retirees drawing millions in benefits and pay.

I guess in California a lot of tax dollars already go to pay pensions then help build schools and roads.

You can't exactly pay all that big money pensions by just investing in bonds alone.

I think this is a good approach, since these guidelines seem to arise out of compassion and wanting to make both the disrespectful contributors and the people they disrespect better communicators, and make the community better as a whole. In contrast I get the sense that most CoCs I read are motivated by a desire to punish people who make you feel bad.
> Stack overflow is and always was a question and answer site.

I don't know man ... while I can kind of agree with the general "thing" you're trying to convey here (that of SO hard-headedly blaming users for "doing it wrong"), this particular point is one that I'll have to defend him/them on -- SERP-as-an-interface was a primary consideration from day one. I listened to all the podcasts they did during development, and they were pretty explicit about it in all the blog posts. They knew that most people would arrive at a previously asked question via search engine, and they optimized the experience for that reality. That's why they wanted each question and answer page to be an "artifact", something that grows over time, gets edited, improved ... precisely because they thought of this ahead of time ;)

Seriously? The next point is “love your juniors” so what you are saying shouldn’t happen. But then again... I think loving your juniors usually ends up with HR.
A code of conduct states rules, with punishments for anyone that violates them. It is the heavy-handed way of teaching people to behave differently, and since it only comes into action when people do something against the rules, it doesn't try to teach people to do better than what the rules require. To be sure, the appointed maintainer(s) of a GNU package can, if necessary, tell a contributor to go away; but we do not want to need to have recourse to that.

That is the paragraph that captures the essence of the CoC issues for me. A CoC seems to be used as a weapon for killing those that do not abide by its rules, not as a tool for teaching each other to be awesome to each other.

Edit: I also love how each paragraph in the guidelines starts with "please". It's such a different approach than the one taken in CoC: "please do this or that for everyone's benefit" rather than "do this and that or you'll be judged by the appropriate judging organ".

We lack this kind of gentleness in the world of raging wars between pro-CoC people and anti-CoC people.
The incentive structure can get seriously misaligned if you receive the product for free. You want to keep getting free products, which means that you want to make the person giving you the products happy. Amazon is giving you the products. Amazon is happy, or at least there is a common perception to that effect, if you rate things highly because then more people buy things from them. So you rate more highly so that you can keep receiving free products.
Not really. I did some searching on Tarek El Diwany and I found these two things:

This wouldn't stop people being dishonest in their reviews. Nothing does so far.
First of all, the idea that companies exist only to create profits does not mean that companies need to seek profits above all else. PEOPLE run and form companies and get to make decisions about how they run and form companies based on their own decision criteria. There's nothing about starting a company that excludes you from society and moral thinking.

Second of all, even thinking of the profit motive, people want to do work they feel good about. If you must make a profit argument, it's important for companies to draw lines about what they will and won't do and stick to them, to earn and keep the trust of their stakeholders (especially employees).
ARM wouldn't be a niche instruction set in the current computing landscape. It might even be the dominant one, if we consider how many people are carrying around multi gHz ARM computers in their pocket every day.
1) I hate this trend

2) I like that he acknowledges the criticisms against the trend and attempts to get to the root of the issue rather than "agreeing" with one of the polarised sides. (Anti-CoC/Pro-CoC people).

It's nice to have guidelines, they're less aggressive than whips. Hopefully this is enough to appease both sides.

EDIT: please criticise my points. If you have something to say, don't hide behind the downvote button.

No. It's because it happens face to face between regular people on the street. i.e. me and a military man holding an AK 47.

'Unlimited Campaign Contributions' is nothing more than newspeak for corruption. By very definition, it is about paying a person in a position of power to make a decision that is in your favor.

I think this looks like a great tool. But I think the HN community is way to broad to be your target market. I would start by brainstorming who out there is losing money from people using their product outside of their intended use.
Then you need to contact them one on one and talk to them about the problem. Is it really that big of a deal, why haven't they solved it themselves already, would they be interested in your product? Why or why not? If yes, who else in the industry could they connect you with?

What immediately came to mind for me was design templates. You are supposed to buy one for $20 and only use it for one site. I will say I have bought those templates for clients, but on small personal projects, I will just load their demo page and save it to my computer and voila. I have their design template. And I'm sure I've used one more than once after it enters my template library. Plus, those designers probably don't have a way to protect themselves. So in this case, I would go to themeforest or something similar. Look up 50 or so designers. Message them and see if you can get a phone call or if they would be willing to talk over email. Figure out what it's worth to them and go from there.
That begs a question why something so important as CPU development has been left to a private company? Wouldn't be better to nationalise Intel and make sure it develops CPU that can serve the people and help advance the society? Corporate interests are not always good for the humanity and I think it is time for a state to step in. Intel has been having free reign for too long.

As someone who wants to see Swift succeed as a main-stream language I could not agree with you more.

I can forgive the API differences between SPM for swift 3 and 4, after all the ecosystem is evolving and I'm a fan of iterating interfaces early rather than having to keep early mistakes in the spec _forever_ for the sake of backward compatibility. But the Package Manager is still pretty far from being nice to use. In several of my projects which are using it, I also have a custom CLI implemented to streamline some of the worst pain points.

As far as dependency management, I think a huge issue is the lack of proper support for Swift Package Manager for iOS projects. Apple's 1st class solution for including software modules in iOS projects is "Just drag the framework into your XCode project", which is of course an absurd solution for any serious workflow.

Cocoapods (and to a lesser extent Carthage) have stepped in to fill the gap as 3rd party solutions, but there's still no real way to use Swift Package Manager to manage the dependancies for an iOS project. As a result a lot of libraries don't even bother with SPM support since the largest portion of their target audience will never use it. And thus adoption is slow, so there's not a large user-base demanding improvements.

There are no clear lines anywhere in the world. Everything gets subtle upon close examination. Do you bring this fact up all the time? E.g., if your friends are going out to brunch, is their a long soliloquy about how the right term depends so much on exact time of day, history of the cuisine involved, and the specific foods people eat? That really maybe it's more lunch, or elevenses, or perhaps really more what's meant by morgenmete or perhaps petit-déjeuner? Perhaps best not to name it at all and let each person just see it as they see it.

Or do you instead only demand this level of philosophical nuance when, as here, it lets someone committing fraud off the hook?
