> Caring about such rights for others does necessarily mean one is incredibly selfish.

You're just playing word games. IF you don't care for others, you are selfish, by definition. If you only pretend to care about the right of others to not help others, so you don't have to help others, you're selfish and dishonest. And that's your right, but don't twist the words of others because you can't even stand behind your own position.

> I know what's good for my family and can get that far better and more effectively than giving my resources to a bureaucrat to waste

That's all great and also completely besides the point.

> Noam has no empathy for me

Can you stop making this about Noam Chomsky for just one second? Here's the same point from someone else:

We've changed. And we've become contemptuous of the idea that we're all in this together. This is about sharing. And about, you know... when you say sharing, there is a percentage of the population, and it's the moneyed percent of our population, that hears "socialism" or "communism" or any of the other -isms they wanna put on it, but ultimately, we are all a part of the same society, and it's either gonna be a mediocre society that, you know, abuses people, or it's not.

-- David Simon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SL6Jv2Jpnpg&t=6m50s

The person I initially responded to clearly has no empathy for people more (supposedly) more unfortunate than them, e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18419729

So instead you now want to talk about how Noam Chomsky is "the one actually lacking empathy"? You should disabuse yourself of the notion you're being generous and patient, the way you instantly talked about Chomsky displaying arrogance -- you know, send him an email if it upsets you so, but in this context you're responding to me -- and then tried to throw up more mud to get away from the actual context. I'll repeat it, because it still holds true: something rubbed you the wrong way, but you can't really name or refute it.

And like most critics of Noam Chomsky, you do anything but address what he actually says, but only face him "in your own words", which are "not even wrong" and not worth addressing at all.

That's not true about Elo being updated particularly at the end of tournaments - either official/FIDE ratings or live ratings.

I heard (possibly from the Chess24 commentators) that if their difference in rating was 4 or more, each draw would bring them closer together in live rating - Magnus would lose rating with each draw; but as it's 3, their ratings don't change. i.e. anacleto was right, thomasahle wrong.

Also, Elo isn't an acronym (ELO) as one might think - it's named after its inventor Arpad Elo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system

Interestingly, when I first looked at this page, most of the good/correct comments were voted down, most of the bad ones not, it was weird. (It made me suspect that other HN pages are like that but I don't know it! - I know chess better than most subjects discussed on here) But that has now almost totally been corrected.
Traditional fluid-coupling automatics are not the only ones on the market. A lot of cars now have dual-clutch automatics, and there are others that combine a fluid coupling with a computer-controlled clutch.

Fuel economy tests in many different countries have confirmed that automatic transmission can indeed be more efficient than the manual transmission in the same car.
It took me a while to figure out that links in the text were ALL CAPS instead of underlined and/or blue. The hover effect was so subtle that I didn't notice it at first. I ended up hovering over acronyms pretty often, as I was never sure if those were also links. That is not good design.

There's also the issue that while the site may look pretty, it requires downloading 5 megabytes of CSS.

At every job I've had, designers who talked about typography created more problems than they solved. They picked fonts that were less readable but more unique, "To emphasize our brand." They chose web fonts that hurt page load times and had kerning and hinting issues on platforms besides macOS. They chose thin font weights and gray text colors because those looked nice when viewed indoors on retina displays with young eyes.

Almost every site could be improved by doing less with fonts, not more. For long form text, use a popular serif font. For user interfaces, use the system font stack.[1] Don't ship web fonts except for icons. Most importantly: Use high contrast and normal font weights. Thin gray fonts are extremely hard to read if you're outdoors or using an older/cheaper screen.

Why were there no military actions against russia for DNC hacks then? Sure,they might bomb a few useless places if a 3rd world country did it. But the US will need to weigh the cost of attacking countries like China,N Korea,Russia or any one of the currently US allied western european and some asian countries like Japan and Vietnam. Good chance the attackers deny relationship with the Gov't,US will respond with just air strikes and sanctions.

If N Korea caused something like the 2008 crash,is it worth a regional nuclear war by invading them? You're also assuming it's just one country that will attack and they haven't already prepared an invasion against mainland US
In the workplace, no amount of technical ability can compensate for a lack of ethics.
Airplanes were once worthy of investigation but practical. As were automobiles. Generally, the fact that something works isn't a compelling argument that something else won't succeed.

I do aggree that it's pretty high bar in this case though - it's changing the flow, not just improving it. So it'd have to get very polished to be able to compete, which I just don't think it will.

Still, maybe someday.

> I've had pretty bad experiences with btrfs in the distant past. Around a decade ago I had all my company laptops using btrfs and it worked great, as long as we didn't get >80% usage or something. It worked well for around a year. But then the reliability of btrfs dropped, and we had repeated data loss and switched back to ext.

btrfs wasn't considered stable until 2012. Using an experimental filesystem for all your company laptops seems to be asking for trouble.

The accuracy requirements for e911 are quite low and are given in terms of a target average. From Wikipedia:

> Wireless network operators must provide the latitude and longitude of callers within 300 meters, within six minutes of a request by a PSAP. Accuracy rates must meet FCC standards on average within any given participating PSAP service area by September 11, 2012

As such the location provided by a barely-compliant mobile phone provider would only have a 50% chance (depending on distribution and what average means exactly in this context) of being within 300 meters of the actual location of the call. I don't know what the real world numbers look like, but it seems very reasonable that the emergency service personnel would need much more accurate location information than that in order to respond without a lot of searching.

I suppose you were using Cycle.js before Cycle State was released

No, I was using cycle state/onionify.

[cycle-js] is not a competitor to React

That's not the impression you give in this article: https://staltz.com/some-problems-with-react-redux.html

React may be superior in ecosystem, or with feature coverage, but not so as a paradigm [compared to cycle-js]... Once you learn Elm or Cycle, getting things done will be more productive, less indirect, less verbose, more organized.

Am I quoting you fairly? Have you changed your position?
I had an old Saab that locked the manual gearshift in reverse when the key was removed. It seemed like it would be fairly difficult to defeat that mechanism without disassembling or destroying the entire shifter.
See the trick to really "loud" bass is finding resonance between the environment and the driver FS (Free Air Resonance). Enclosure size isn't really directly relevant.

The trick is to try and couple all of it, so that there is a resonant point in the environment which matches the resonant point of the Enclosure and the enclosure matches the FS of the driver. If you line up all of these then you can get the whole world to shake on a tiny amount of power.

It's possible that the Kenwood driver just accidentally did that for someone's house and it all lined up. There were tons of old wives tales like this.

Wattage is misleading too. If all your frequencies are dorked up and you have standing waves and cancelling waves all over the place, then you have a sonically chaotic environment no matter what the power you are pumping is.
Invent it or don't invent it. There is no "if" -- that's just bikeshedding. Programming languages are tools, not products. Durable languages evolve to suit the needs of projects, not the aesthetics of the coders. We see recent languages "do the same but better" (as OP opines) because the nature of the projects haven't fundamentally changed.
We're going back and forth, but yeah, Trump can increase production with a phone call. Maybe threaten or promise a favor to SA. A $500 per bbl is not good for OPEC long term, so there's a lot more than let's just increase the price.

Even in USA with the three branches, the US President has a LOT of power and if he promises to pass a bill, he has a lot of lever$ he can use to assure the votes are there.

So, yeah, these three men can control the oil price if their interests align.
I've never used Rust, but looking at the code, and reading https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/process/struct.Command.html , is std::process:Command just farming out to bash? I ask, because the examples don't specify a full path, so that implies something else is doing the PATH search, like bash. Because of this, and the semantics, it looks like it's equivalent to a system() function in other languages.

If you really want job control, a path, environmental variables, and all the things that make a shell a shell, you have to be using exec() or execvp() https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/process/struct.Command.html#me... . Otherwise all you've done is wrap an existing shell that does all the work for you, and that was an immediate fail when we had to a make a shell in my undergrad systems course.

An easy check is the use the command "echo $SHELL". If that spits out anything besides literally "$SHELL", you're farming out.

All that said, Rust's exec() is listed a unix specific, so if you're on Windows, I guess you're stuck.

> Yet there is public housing in Chelsea NYC.

This is a classic political maneuver. Build two units out of a thousand with regulated prices, then declare victory because you can point to one person paying an affordable price, even though it's being sold below market at restricted volumes and isn't available to everyone.

If the same units were available at that price but in unrestricted quantity to every member of the public, the high prices of competing housing would fall.
But is there any situation where the combination is more effective (produces a higher net thrust) than the fan alone? I imagine that the conservation of momentum rules it out.
Don’t populate all 16 DIMM’s unless you need that much memory? Both my single-socket R320 and dual-socket R520 idle at 70W each with 6 DIMM’s installed.

Most people probably don’t need the gobs of memory I have either. A R520 with one socket populated and 2x8 or 16GB dual-ranked RDIMM’s would be more than sufficient.

Apple doesn't release the details but Anandtech estimates A12 has 13 execution ports (https://www.anandtech.com/show/13392/the-iphone-xs-xs-max-re...). I'm guessing the numbers for 6 ALU ports are more accurate than the overall since it's hard to blackbox determine the port sharing structure. Recent Intel / Zen have 4 ALU ports AFAIK.
Cycle uses a virtual DOM as well. The difference is that React will call your component functions every time it needs to render, while Cycle will (mostly) only call them once, when the app starts up. A Cycle app is a data flow graph set up by your component functions, with a "driver" at the root observing that data flow and causing side effects, like rendering your virtual DOM or making HTTP requests.

In short: instead of a component being called with props and state and returning VDOM, in Cycle it "maps" a stream of state into a stream of VDOM.

I was just thinking this. Yes it'll have half the lanes of EPYC still, okay, but now the lanes will be connected to all the dies equally rather than to just 1/2 the dies. This hopefully means Threadripper 3 can perform almost as well as EPYC with just 1/2 the memory bandwidth - that isn't insignificant but it's a big improvement on Threadripper 2.
It's misleading to say observables are not asynchronous. The raison d'etre of obserables is to support asynchronous operations, and it's this capability that constrains the programming model.

To quote Erik Meijer - the godfather of observables - in this article https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2169076

There are many ways to derive Rx, some involving category theory and appealing to mathematical duality, but this article shows how every developer could have invented Rx by crossing the standard JDK (Java Development Kit) Future<T> interface with the GWT (Google Web Toolkit) AsyncCallBack<T> interface to create the pair of interfaces IObservable<T> and IObserver<T> that model asynchronous data streams with values of type T.
A10X or A12X? But there are a number of benchmarks showing the A12X outperforming most of Apple's laptop lineup and many competitors. The A12X doesn't have the liberty of a desktop form factor, so it is definitely a mobile part, but it seems reasonable that Apple could make another chip that scales the performance up even further if they wanted to, without really altering the underlying architecture.
