Although antelope and buffalo are both in the family bovidae, a buffalo isn't a large antelope. That's especially true of the animals that Americans call buffalo and antelope, where Antilocapra isn't even in that same family.

This is why I love "Mayday: Aircraft Disasters" (or whatever it's being called now). While the acting is cheesy as hell I really enjoy the "Ok, this happened, now let's figure out why and make sure it doesn't happen again". If you can get past the acting it's really a decent show.
Much of the value is standby time. Even if workers are doing very little most of the day, the fact that you can spin up a worker instantly (between 9 and 9) in China can make their companies extremely efficient.
"Stable coins" should be called "Oracle problem." How are you dealing with the oracle problem with your token?
Fragmented European market; the culture and language differences.
I agree that it's important to think about that. That does not change the definition of the word age.

What you're saying is we should have a different metric to measure ability / health, which isn't called age.
I can't understand anything here. Why would "getting something for absolutely no effort" be attractive to a libertarian? Isn't that more of a left-wing ideal of redistributive societies, where you receive resources regardless of your economic output?
And what's being done here is the same as communism? And communism has no potential benefits? Why don't you argue based on concrete facts instead of false equivalencies?
I'm not sure IoT is the best use of a contiguous IPv4 range... you're talking about less than 17 million addresses.

Depending on how much it actually cost I feel like it could be a number of things from simple branding to nefarious traffic shaping. If you're an AWS shop maybe they want you to be able to set simple bypass/static route for 3.0.0.0/8.
For the railways.

Other criticisms aside, Britain's are some of the safest in the world, and I think it's because of the same approach.

I like that the report on the tank wagon has detailed pictures of failed welds and so on.

Maybe the one about the "loss of speed restrictions" would be of interest to HN, since it seems to be a software problem and its subsequent analysis.

I've got a Unicomp 104-key purchased at least twelve years ago. While I'm a big fan of the feel and sound, as a daily driver the actuation length and force becomes tiring, so it's been mothballed.

I'm using a steel backed unit with Cherry Browns and damper rings (it's a Ducky — WASD/Code were always OOS when I was ready to buy) and it's okay, but it honestly doesn't feel that much nicer than a fresh, cheapo rubber dome unit.

I've been curious about the Topre keyed boards which reputedly have a solid, but damped, "thwumph" response — that sounds right up my alley, but they are a lot of cash for a blind buy, since I've never seen or touched one.

Anyone here have experience with the Topre boards?
Size of the market, US and China have #1 and #2 economies. Start-ups in India seem to have similar problem as Europe, given multi-lingual nature of mass market.
This is the truth.

I just moved back to Philadelphia. After stints in Boston, New York, and Seattle. I have a completely different perspective than when I first left.

A lot of the homes are single family, or row homes. This results in swaths of a residential feel in a city. Even the hot Fishtown felt very rural to me after my stint in New York. Although I appreciate the quite. Looking at the history Philadelphia started with the idea of brownstones/row homes instead of apartment buildings. To give people more space. But this does result in sparseness of shops. A lot of the multi tenant buildings are either new constructions or converted warehouses.

The two subways is always a point of contention. But I don't find it that big of a deal. Living near either Broad or MFL, I can get around very easily. The city is also extremely walk able, a majority of the people I knew just walk. It's under two miles river to river. If not that there are a number of buses.
http://skookul.com/ <| For real time public transit.

I can't speak regional rail. But when I left ~15, commuting from Delaware was a shit show.

In the city bike lanes I don't think is the best. But the river trail along the west side is well used. I know a number of people up in outer Manayunk bike in.
https://schuylkillrivertrail.com/

Having just taken a history walking tour. How the city feels makes alot of sense. It's meant to feel like a number of connected neighborhoods. I still think it deserves a second look for tech companies. With all the universities and good start to transit. It's ripe for an investment outside of Comcast.
Same, not in anything intensive. Used it for my home/blog page. Looks like they definitely extended it further. I've liked the results better than some other lightweight frameworks. Didn't customize it much, either. Site's in my profile.
Frankly I'm not surprised. The only bison in the city of Buffalo are in the zoo. As we all know, bison are native to the great prairies, and would be happy only if they had freedom to roam. It must be very stressful for them to be cooped up in small spaces. So they are likely to take out their frustrations on their fellow zoo residents.

Shame on Buffalo for condoning animal cruelty! They should close down the zoo.
I have always found this notion of "race" with China odd. I don't see how other countries doing well economically does anything but help America economically.

If anything, to me the lesson of the last century is that we've changed too fast with too little forethought.
> “I’m not worried so much about my portfolio companies not working as hard as the Chinese companies,” said Mr. Chan, now a partner at Felicis Ventures. “I’ll worry when they’re less creative and less efficient.”

This seems to be a hollow fear. Working that much seems like it would do more harm than good.

They don't have one, and they definitely should.

And if they don't want to rejigger to do backlit keys, they could add a USB hub with three ports: one for a mouse, one for a USB stick or such, and one for a USB-powered LED lamp.

I'd buy that.
Appreciate you responding to this thread. Now that you're here:

I love Pocket, but I feel the "Discover" feature could be greatly improved. I do find great articles in there, but you could spare your users some scroll fatigue by giving them more options on the Context Menu's "Hide This".

Right now the options aren't great, because when I hit "It's not Relevant to Me" on yet another Medium.com article about Gary Vee and "the hustle", it doesn't seem to change the number of low-quality recommendations I get on this topic from similarly low quality domains like "forbes.com" and "huffingtonpost.com". Letting users filter out certain domains (like how you can filter subreddits using RES extension) would be a great way to restrict the "Discover" feature to high quality stuff. That alongside the original unfiltered, content (called "Top Reads" for example) would give me the best of both worlds.

I hope you'll consider it!
It is extremely concerning to me how these tech executives are so enamored with Chinas working conditions and all-pervasive data collection as if it was the pinnacle of living in the 21st century.

What happened to the dream of letting technology do the work for us, giving us vast leisure time and taking the burden of survival off? These executives seem so driven towards some ever-changing unobtainable goal that I don't think they will be ever satiated with people just... living.
Scott Alexander wrote a short-story sequel to GATTACA on his blog SlateStarCodex this past summer that dealt with epigenetics and education that he called the GATTACA trilogy:
http://slatestarcodex.com/2018/06/19/the-gattaca-trilogy/

> “Well, you know how things are. We want to make sure we get only the healthiest, most on-point individuals for our program. We used to do genetic testing, make sure that people’s DNA was pre-selected for success. But after the incident with the Gattaca Corporation and that movie they made about the whole thing, public opinion just wasn’t on board, and Congress nixed the whole enterprise. Things were really touch-and-go for a while, but then we came up with a suitably non-invasive replacement. Epigenetics!”
Just that - if you were a bona fide war criminal, you'd like to disappear yourself from Europe - but you'd need some assistance in doing so. U-530 and U-977 ended up in Argentina after the war, for instance - who came with them is still disputed. (That being said, I don't buy into the 'Hitler escaped to Argentina in a submarine!' idea - but that some of his henchmen might have? Absolutely.)
Actually, I don't believe it relies on unmarked compounds, or, indeed, adjectives at all. This is mentioned in point 3 in the linked article, but was surprised to see people in the email threads (e.g. Neuner) not get this.

Basically, as I understand it, there are three rules to make this continue indefinitely, using only nouns and verbs:

Rule 1: Any noun or noun-phrase can be made into a sentence by placing a verb at the end.

e.g. "Police police" is a sentence. What do police do? They police. We could also say "Cops police." Likewise it works with noun-phrases: "[Eager cops] police."

Rule 2: Any Noun phrase + Transitive verb sentence can have a noun placed at the end, as the object of the action.

e.g. "Police police police." Who do cops police? Other cops. Similarly: "Detectives investigate criminals."

Rule 3: The object of any sentence of the form above can be re-arranged by placing the object in front, to form a noun-phrase with the same number of words:

"Detectives investigate criminals" => "Criminals detectives investigate... [tend to get caught]". This can also be phrased as "Criminals THAT detectives investigate" for clarity, but the THAT is unnecessary in English.

"Police police police..." => "Cops THAT cops police... [tend to quit their jobs]

This forms a new noun phrase (a sentence fragment) that you can apply rule #1 to, and then continue indefinitely from there.

To apply these three rules up to seven words:

"Police police police: ("Cops police cops").

"Police police police police" ("Cops cops police police"): Turn the object of the sentence above into a noun phrase, from rule 3: "Cops (THAT) other cops police...", and add a verb (Rule 1): "The cops THAT other cops police, themselves police.

"Police police police police police" ("Cops cops police police cops"): Who do they police? Other cops. (Rule 2)

"Police police police police police police" ("Cops cops cops police police police"): (Rearranged noun phrase, from rule 3: The policemen (from the line above above) THAT are policed by cops that are themselves policed by cops) + (Rule 1 Verb: themselves police).

"Police police police police police police police" ("Cops cops cops police police police cops"): ... and who do they police? Other cops. (Rule 2)

...Anyway, this is how I worked it out myself, when trying to understand the buffalo sentence, and then was always very disappointed to find the variation with the capitalized "Buffalo" adjective being touted as the canonical one, since it always seemed less interesting to me.
This is great. I love that old things, old paced stuff comes back. We all need to take a break to re think how we do things that entertain us. Spotify, Netflix, Facebook, etc, are just making us more miserable and less social in real life.
DNA is not fragile, and can act as a very stable long-term storage medium.

DNA in living cells has some fragility because it is in an aqueous solution and also actively used to generate RNA. DNA out side of cells is even more fragile, it will inevitably be eaten by bacteria. But put DNA in the right sterile environment, it can last for thousands of years and has great resistance to electromagnetic interference.

Bingo. You can launch a startup in the "United States" or "in China" in day one. You can't really launch a startup in "Europe" from day one, unless you only offer an online service and only to the English speakers (a tiny single-digit percentage, on average) of those countries.
Semi-related video from 1999 of Jack Ma's early pitch about Alibaba's potential to some friends in China.[0]

His quote about hard work and long hours:

>"Second, we need to learn the hard working spirit of Silicon Valley. If we go to work at 8am and go home at 5pm, this is not a high tech company, and Alibaba wil never be successful."

Apparently, of the 17 people in that room, only 1 joined/invested in Alibaba. Intense startups are definitely not the right lifestyle for most people.

Depends on what kind of work, if you are front-line developer the value of work is different from that of an executive. Executive game has more perception elements to it, in such the style is as much important as substance. Its has little or no similarities with the deep work needed from most of the knowledge workers.

> But I keep seeing frontend frameworks on HN

They are very popular on HN because the main users here are not front-end engineers or designers. They are hackers who want a quick landing page for their project. Those quick and dirty frameworks are perfect for it.
>...Then he basically asserts that we can extrapolate the near-term availability of tons more compute power from Moore’s Law, which is where he lost me.

That's not what he's asserting. Even with Moore's law dead, OpenAI claims there is significant room with ASICs, analog computing, and simply throwing more money at the problem. There is a ton of low-hanging fruit in Non-Von Neumann architectures. We should expect it to be plucked, as we have huge use case which is potentially limitlessly profitable.

Correct strategy in the case of early down votes that you think are incorrect is (1) review what you wrote to see if its tone was flame-bait; (2) wait it out quietly until votes equilibrate. Usually something reasonable comes out over time.

>There have always been very expensive parts of town.

Historically, yes. But I'd argue that there are a lot of US cities that got pretty hollowed out by white flight and other factors to the degree that there were essentially no desirable parts of town. What's happened is that any number of those cities now have a revitalized urban core (however small) and living in that small core with the dozen or so restaurants you can walk to, maybe some small markets, new condos, etc. is pricey.

I've either worked in or spend a fair bit of time in a few of those places. The few dozen square blocks on gentrified core is pretty nice as a visitor but it's pretty small.
I tend to prefer more utility/function approaches as much as possible. The exception to sometimes you need to carry context in a way often more simple (in terms of source complexity) to use class syntax. Not in every case, but some.
The reason for "no" given: "why completely replace what works already" paired with "fighting second system syndrome". It's not a real "no", but reasons why it's challenging. Aren't those always the case? It shouldn't stop something new from appearing.

Yes to both. There are at least two gold-backed cryptocurrencies designed for a strict interpretation of Islamic Finance (HelloGold in Malaysia, OneGram in Dubai).

There is also a basket of 15 currencies plus gold, called Globcoin, though the balance of currencies, what currencies you could buy and sell Globcoins with, and relative share of each coin was difficult to interpret when I was looking into it.

Ugh, no, that's a very subjective statement,
64 |> Math.sqrt is not "much more comprehensible" assuming especially for beginners.
I don’t but that argument. In math you’d say that this is an “continuous function”, wouldn’t you? Where is the break-off point? Germany for example has 80 mio people, Japan has 120 mio or so. You’d expect the same level of activity scaled by population size. Am I wrong?

EDIT: Another example countering your point is Sweden/Stockholm. Tiny population, high number of startups and unicorns.

Wow. This is a significant slice of the IPv4 address space, and one of the few remaining uninterrupted /8s owned by the private sector. This is a 10-year old visualization, but it's still a good one to visualize the scale of this purchase.
