I like your silver-lining take on this. It wouldn't be bad low-hanging fruit to look at if someone hasn't already done that study.
That may be because you use lower quality input devices. On Apple computers, the touchpad sensitivity tends to perfectly match the screen movement, making it very intuitive that pulling a screen down would pull it down. A manufacturer copying this with inferior hardware sensitivity and feel would indeed make it feel frustrating.
In a way, sure. A major roll of the immune system (especially T cells) is to monitor for unusual cells. Some pre-cancerous cells display unusual markers that are recognized and killed by T cells. Those that evade T cell recognition go on to be a problem.

The major problem is still how do you target cancer cells? If you can find something that makes them unique, say a cell surface receptor, or an unusual metabolic process, there are lots of ways to target them for removal. It's just hard to uniquely identify cancer cells. Right now, most chemotherapy drugs target the phenotype of "fast replication" which really isn't too selective.

There is a term for this: OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer).

"An original equipment manufacturer (OEM) is a company that produces parts and equipment that may be marketed by another manufacturer. "

When I started working on home power monitoring solutions "cloud" software, we could brand the web page with the company that sold/installed the equipment. If you didn't buy directly from us, you would have little idea where the equipment came from. Even the tech support information was that of our resellers. That changed overtime as the business started using there own branding.

Been there done that. Especially the LUNCH interview is to see if you guys can get along. The one I did, the guy was slightly senior, but he took it as way senior (i.e. not going to do wok, but just tell us to work harder). This as LONG ago and it was a team lead position. But he was acting like he was going for Director of SW dev. Anyway he did not get it as both of us thought he was way to arrogant to fit in.
I think it's especially a problem for those who work remotely and maybe don't have a separate office setup.
I've been using Arch Linux mostly, with the 4.18 and more recently 4.19 kernels. As explained in another post, I've done extensive trial & error to isolate the issue.

I understand that it's just a single data point, and other people have more positive experiences. My intention was not to find a solution here on HN, but OP asked for experience reports so I gave mine.
"Varying" datatypes demonstrates that this author is aware of ISPC. Which is good! ISPC is a very nice environment, and I'd love to see a C++ version of it!

I haven't worked with Sierra yet, but the intro looks like they "get it". Its important to make If/Else statements compile down into mask instructions (or AVX perm instructions) automatically. That way CPU SIMD can actually compete against GPU SIMD.

I'm not sure if a new data-type is the best way of doing things, but it seems workable. I really liked Microsoft's C++ AMP which built everything out of templates though: https://download.microsoft.com/download/4/0/E/40EA02D8-23A7-...

C++ AMP was more for GPU programming, not for AVX. But still, its got the right idea... and I think it had an AVX-fallback mode.
Interesting! Can anyone recommend similar tools/projects? Anything in Java?
The cities you mentioned were mostly developed recently with a solid plan. The primary purpose of those European cities weren't being a tourist destination. When the Notre Dame was built 800 years ago, they weren't thinking about 21st century tourists. A lot of tourist attractions in European cities were built before the airplane/car era so preparing for a massive influx of tourists probably didn't cross their minds.
Nah, Mac users hate Windows. Personally, I don’t know how any power user can be productive on Windows, and I don’t know how people put up with the bugginess, forced reboots, and invasive telemetry. I use both heavily and hate Windows more with each passing day. It wasn’t so bad around Windows 7, but still not a productive environment for someone who relies on basic unix tools and a working terminal (I know about WSL...).

But these are just my preferences, and clearly many disagree.

Your reboot problem on the Mac was hardware, not software, by the way. Macs have had hardware reliability problems, and they usually mean the whole thing is junk, minus the case or screen. I wish Apple software on third party hardware was a viable option, personally.
So to the non-geneticist noobs (like me), is it correct to interpret this finding as suggesting that the promises of CRISPR may be dead in the water?

Does this mean all the hype was nothing more than hype?

Should anyone with investments in CRISPR be seriously looking at dumping their stock?

Should anyone who was holding out on CRISPR to give us super powers / cure disease / etc start drinking copious amounts of alcohol instead?

Despite my tone, I seriously am asking what the implications of this are, because it's not my area of expertise.
Could we not just use immunosuppressants to give the crispr editing enough time to spread? Once the genes are edited, purging the CRISPR delivery mechanisms from the system should be fine, correct?

Horizontal feature sizes for flash memory stopped shrinking years ago. The continued improvements in density and production cost have been the result of R&D that is very specifically focused on 3D NAND flash memory and has little in common with R&D for logic circuit fabrication.

That said, on the horizon of multiple years, I agree that the future scalability of NAND flash doesn't look quite as promising as HAMR/MAMR for hard drives. How that translates into actual product demand and adoption will probably depend on the relatively unexplored question of how much performance per TB our applications actually need. 40+ TB hard drives might not be fast enough to actually serve as nearline storage for that volume of data without eg. multi-actuator technology that essentially gives you more than one hard drive sharing a common spindle motor. Meanwhile, there's no question that QLC NAND flash definitely has adequate read latency and throughput.

My thoughts exactly! Here's how it might work :

Get a construct into the cell that is only transcribed if specific pathways are overly active, effectively testing that cells "cancer status". This is the hard part.....

Then have it translate something pathogenic-looking that gets presented on the surface.

So now the question is, how do you design some kind of promoter sequence that looks for, say, tp53 mutations or something similar?

I have a (pretty old) TiVo that lets you do something similar to this - there's some button on the remote (I honestly can't remember what it is called) that lets you cycle between the tuners. It works pretty much like you describe - if a bit more manually - and has the added benefit of not requiring you to type a multi digit channel number every time you want to hop between your favorite channels.

But Canada is gigantic! Other than Niagara Falls, the tourist attractions are either in nature and not world famous (no Instagram-pressure to pick any particular place), in big, modern cities and not particularly focussed to one place (Montreal, Toronto), in old cities where people don't live (centre of Quebec), or in places like ski resorts where if all the hotels are full, it's full.

Amsterdam is large, but everyone only wants to go to the centre, which has mediaeval-size streets. In Barcelona there are a few expected sights. Both cities are also normal cities.

Ask HN: How do I interview people in various industries to learn about them?
With hopes and aspirations of becoming an entrepreneur I'd like to talk to people about their industries and their day-to-day in said industry. The problem is I'm not quite sure how to actually get access to such people and how to entice them to speak with me for 30-60 minutes. I imagine lots of exploratory conversations like this are actually soft-sells for some sort of product (inclusive of selling yourself) and that most people are wise to most tricks ("I'm a student and interested in becoming xyz"). I'm also aware of the option of attending "networking" events (meetups, hackathons, etc.) but right now I'm not in a metro area so I don't have access to any such networking events. I guess I could just ping people on LinkedIn and ask for a phone call but I'm wondering if there's a less obvious route.
Either the free market provides or regulation talk begins.
In a traditional MPA yes. The user would have to choose and hit submit and wait.

Regardless, I think this is a superior experience. It does require some getting use to because of the screen/price chart, but just because it's different than anything everybody has done in the past, doesn't mean it's worse. I think someone getting used to this reactive approach might find it a bit hard to go back to a more traditional click/wait cycle.
A full blown filesystem is overkill for an object store. You could use something like libzbc ( https://github.com/hgst/libzbc ) to write directly to the SMR drives on the block level.

I believe Ceph now has abstracted the drives away through BlueStore, which simply puts a large RocksDB database on the drive, bypassing most of the functionality a filesystem offers. It should be much easier to make an SMR compatible version of the LSM-tree backend of RocksDB, than writing a full-blown file system.
I could be wrong, but this seems like a blessing in disguise. Maybe I'm just totally ignorant about CRISPR but from what I have read, it seems like this is totally wild-west/uncharted territory. This seems like one of those technologies that could have massive unintended consequences. Perhaps this is a _good_ thing rather than a bad thing.

This will likely not be an impediment to treatments based on CRISPR. The study has been available in preprint form for ~6 months on biorxiv [0]. At least some of the companies researching CRISPR were aware of this issue at the time the paper was released. It has since been mitigated, as specified at the bottom of the article. From Gaetan Burgio's tweets:

"Published now in @NatureMedicine on #CRISPR & Immunity to SpCas9. 6 months has past since the preprint was online & it is a long time in the CRISPR field. Since then additional work showed how to circumvented this by modifying Cas9 protein or using Cas9 orthologs. So No panic !" [1]

No you have to level all jobs individually in FFXIV. Changing the weapon does change the class but you still have to level.
> So what else could it be? Well, at the heart of every electronic device is a clock. Traditionally, these are quartz oscillators, crystals that vibrate at a specific predictable frequency—generally 32 kHz.

Watch crystals run at 32[.768] kHz because you can divide with a binary counter by 2^16 and get 1 pps to drive the Lavet stepper driving the seconds hand.

Watch crystals are also commonly used by MCUs for their RTC (real time, very low power clock), but never used to produce the main clock of a SoC or something like that. Mostly because that'd need an insanely high multiplication through a PLL (higher frequency multiplication ~ higher phase noise). Base clock crystals are typically 20-50 MHz.

Quartz crystals used to be hermetically sealed.

That doesn't mean it can happen at X% probability to everyone. Seatbelts on modern cars, of course, have warning lights and beepers. I never put my belt on before turning the car on, but I never take a trip without it. It's not really a matter of memory, because if I found myself driving without a seatbelt and no memory of how it happened, I'm still conditioned to feel naked.

I wonder if there are really a lot of people who are sensitive to the risk of a fine but not the risk of injury or death.

Alternatively, make it optional coverage that the equipment owner can purchase or waive when setting up a rental.

That way they break out the costs separately (not having to show higher prices), and they could make extra revenue because they are in an additional business.

This kind of thing is already common with other transactions. The cell phone company offers protection plans in case someone steals my phone. Shippers (USPS, UPS, FedEx) offer insurance.

Yes, maybe med schools should also do physical tests as part of an entrance exam for surgeons. That would likely solve the problem, and it would also signal to kids interested in becoming surgeons to get good at hand/eye coordination, hand dexterity, and anything else that is important physically.

1.) accepting angle funds for too much equity (45%) and not "quitting my day job" to focus full time on my venture.

2.) Paying (a lot, $35K) a high end IP law firm to "finish" two patents I'd drafted an file them. I now write and file my own patents for next to nothing; it just takes time.

3.) Letting a law firm convince me to pay even more ($40K) for foreign patents, which are pretty much worthless unless you're an Apple or Samsung.

4.) Not getting an up front firm quote for legal work (said firm tried to collect an additional $90K, which of course we did not pay).

5.) Not watching the company bank account like a hawk to make sure my partners weren't wasting precious raised capital on worthless overhead expenses (e.g. empty offices... and they were).

Along the same lines, I would love to see a syntax something like this:

mynotebook.py

### (cell boundary)
"""Top-level unused strings (docstring-esque) rendered as markdown"""
def add(x, y):
return x + y
# jupyter-output-hash: 0123abc (which would link to some external key-value storage for the project)

Anything in something other than the primary language could be in something like `execute_scala(""" scala code """)` - which would execute properly given proper globals.

As long as the output-hash storage is treated as append-only and is highly available (output cells could even be encrypted for security if this was a public cloud service, or you could even use a local or shared filesystem), then this file would not only parse and run as a perfectly valid Python file, but it would also hold references to outputs in a source-control friendly way. IDEs could show the cell outputs inline. If you rerun your notebook and get different outputs for some reason, `git diff` tells you exactly where things changed without being too messy. Basically, put outputs in off-chain storage, and just be a literate code file.

I feel like this would address most people's needs, no?
I'm inserted in a context that I don't have anyone to discuss this kind thing, so you don't have to be apologetic. It was very that you liked the project. I've been receiving many suggestions and I'll look into them with care. Thanks a lot.

> since clock speed can be so misleading between generations

I am sorry but no. They haven't been misleading for a long, long time. IPC grew from Sandy Bridge to Kaby Lake only by 20% https://www.hardocp.com/article/2017/01/13/kaby_lake_7700k_v... and since then nothing because Intel is barely doing more than tweaking the Turbo profiles because 10nm is not happening. All these years the progress was more in power consumption than anything else. Note how ThinkPads (and the world) moved from 35W dual core to 15W dual core chips. So if you compare them clock to clock you won't be far. But you don't know what clock of the chip actually will be because the problem with Y CPUs the problem always was: how good is the cooling, how long are they are able to maintain their top Turbo before throttling. Noone can say as there are no Amber Lake laptops yet and much less an Apple. What we can say with surety is even if it has exceptional great cooling it can only keep up with the 5557U in single core, in multi core performance it'll be half at best.
