Sure that's not like less? You can even start searching results of a high output command immediately after the pipe.

You're right that non-olive oils are also mixed in, sometimes.

I'm pretty sure the provenance is a problem. I don't remember where that certitude comes from. I can try looking it up if you insist - but actually I'd rather I didn't, I'm a little on the busy side right now :0
Same experience for me, I did move back though, and it has a marked improvement from existing conditions.
What's stopping Google is that they would lose out on advertising revenue, and drive users to other search engines which do serve links to news media sites.

No, this is about withdrawal symptoms. When you stop taking certain pharmaceuticals, you may experience withdrawal symptoms that aren't just a return to how you felt before you started. In the case of antidepressants these symptoms sometimes include dizzyness and nausea.

Withdrawal symptoms come into play in the case of addictions as well. It can be dangerous to suddenly stop taking an addictive substance. You may have heard the phrase "cold turkey": that refers to withdrawal symptoms.

Potentially, if you find that magic role and are qualified. I am too cautious to say you could 2x from a 6 figure salary without putting in a few years getting experience and proving yourself first. Not saying it isn't possible, but overnight is probably an exaggeration. If you're willing to travel and do consulting it's realistic, but it sounds like OP may not be willing to go that route.
> I'm interpreting your comment as implying that it's somehow a waste of time to develop alternatives to an incumbent that just won't evolve.

That assertion has no objective meaning, or even a point. Change for the sake of change does more to create problems instead of fixing them. Is there actually anything that is broken in Make's specification?
six figures at 40 is not a brag ...

do it. you have the right background and demand is off the charts.

>Hosting it on one's own with AWS/Azure/GCP/DigitalOcean/etc will have variable egress costs and budgeting/forecasting a potential expense of thousands of dollars is not something regular people want to tackle.

Peer-to-peer distribution systems like BitTorrent, IPFS, and Dat are a good solution to this; distribution actually gets easier and cheaper as demand for a file increases.
This type of thing is not cheap or easy for most companies. Who is expanding into these small ponds? Amazon, one of the largest tech companies on earth, and with a years long theatrical processs. Talent going to these communities was already passed over by SV university recruiting. There’s no urgency to get into these puddles when every 22 year old with a CS degree is willing to drop everything and come to you.
The problem is that the same crops are grown globally, so once a disease grabs hold, it can spread very quickly, eradicating yields globally.
According to [1], in 2140 each block will give 0.00000042 BTC (big guess based on mining trends). The reward per block goes down as the number of remaining coins reduces.

This introduces a very unstable system. If the price of bitcoin doesn't (double + increase with inflation), as the block reward shrinks, the rewards will become useless.

Writing down binary searches and reversing linked lists is one thing, but what people are talking about here are questions of the nature "write down this algorithm that was publication-worthy 30 years ago," or, what I like to call "stupid programmer tricks." Those would include "implement rand10() using rand7()," or "find the closest palindrome to a given integer n."
I think the people that enjoy notmuch would probably prefer to stick with what they know.

Might also want to test with a bigger buffer? There are likely to be constant-time overheads, especially for libraries which are C/C++ wrappers, and in general for hash function setup.
If there are other health issues, work on them. My general understanding is that you react allergically in part because your system is generally overloaded. This proved to be a useful metric for me. Getting generally healthier cut back on how many things made me itch and break out in hives and so forth and also cut back on the severity of my reactions for those things that do still cause me issues.

Look up the standard medical advice on keeping your house clean and mold free and etc. It does exist and it is well established, respectable, etc, but doctors tend to gloss over it in favor of writing you a prescription. Go do all that stuff in spades first before trying anything "crazier." That alone may give you substantial relief.

This means also look into things like Sick Building Syndrome. Maybe it's the place you are living or working. That actually happens.

From discussions I have had with people who researched (read up on heavily) this stuff, it's possible that having an undiagnosed parasitic infection promotes allergies. I have no idea what step two is with such info. Just tossing it out there.

I used to spend time on a chelation list (it's how you treat metal poisoning). Metal poisoning may be a factor in allergies and is something most medical doctors won't test for or treat (or, if they do treat it, from what I gather, they often mistreat it -- according to a guy with a PhD in chemistry and published author I used to know who was trying to promote proper chelation).

If you explore that, you will likely find yourself in the land of woo and conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxxers and they will hate on you just as much as the general public hates on their ilk if you don't drink the koolaid and parrot the same things. So if you want to look into the possibility of metal poisoning and don't want to join in the mantra that all doctors are evil and the government is a conspiracy and so forth, gird your loins and expect to be given hell from all sides and be in the wrong in the eyes of everyone.

Or maybe you will get lucky and find sources of support that successfully take the middle way on such things. It's been a few years since I hung out in chelation spaces online. Maybe there is better stuff these days.
Hey! I made XState and just discovered it hit Hacker News (...great)

To clarify, the new tag-line is "State machines and statecharts for the modern web." Some of you are nitpicking the word "stateless" which describes the actual machine `.transition()` implementation (not the interpreter implementation), which returns the next state (+ actions, etc.) given the current state and event, but does not mutate or remember any state (hence, stateless).

Please don't focus on the word "stateless." I'd appreciate any other valuable feedback, though!

I was once in a long online debate about whether "software engineering" was about machines and math, or the human mind ("wetware"). I leaned the "wetware" direction. As a "test", I asked the machine/math side to "objectively prove" that goto's are inferior to blocks (under most circumstances). (To be fair, the machine/math side was not uniform in their view; I'm oversimplifying for brevity.)

It was a fascinating debate, but ultimately degenerated into a dispute over the definition of "go to" and "block", because the boundary is actually quite fuzzy being that hybrid structures can be created. One would probably have to settle on specific existing languages first in order to compare.
Your second paragraph is incorrect. Withdrawal is not an orderly transition to a previous physical state, it's the presence of previously unseen symptoms, typically due to biochemical adaptations to the presence of the foreign substance.

For example, if you drink a lot, some normal neural pathways are repressed by the regular presence of alcohol and your body compensates by increasing the affected neurotransmitters (GABA in this case). As a result, when you stop drinking, you have a corresponding oversupply of GABA, causing the physical symptoms of Delirium Tremens.

I was on Lexapro for 3 years. When I tapered off according to the standard protocol (already in place to avoid withdrawal issues), I experienced debilitating vertigo symptoms and had to change my process from a 2 week reduction to a 3 month process. It was intense.
As usual with upcoming legislation, FUD predominates in the conversation. A reasonable person may be used to parties with vested interests to exaggerate or misrepresent facts, but it's unfortunate when parties from whom you may not expect a clear bias continue to perpetuate uncertainty and doubt.

Article 13 states that the measures to seek rightholder approval for user-submitted content "shall be effective and proportionate, taking into account, among other factors" the nature and size of services, whether they're a small and medium business, the sheer volume of material uploaded, and the cost burden of such an effort.

Furthermore, it refers to a precise definition of the sort of enterprise that is to be impacted by this regime -- those that provide "public access to a large amount of works or other subject-matter uploaded by its users which it organises and promotes for profit-making purposes", exempting a variety of others. This leaves ample leeway to require a more rigorous scheme from hosts as big as YouTube while being more lenient with a hobbyist forum.

Article 11 states that the copyright protection of journalistic articles from aggregators will expire at the end of the following year from the article's publication. It reaffirms the right of publishers to decide how they wish to profit from their work -- if they choose to make it available for the aggregator at no cost, that is their right as well.
So damned if you do and damned if you don’t? How does this right here not destroy the prospect of any small company trying to scale operations in this space?

From the company’s perspective, it’s like a DDoS attack that is illegal to defend yourself against.
Sure, but if google decides to pull out of european news, someone else might find it an attractive idea. And , considering that (if this passes) EU will have made it impossible for a european company to do that, it will be somewhere outside the EU.

Not particularly, the article needs some revision to flow properly & Twilio is of no interest to me.
It means state is passed in as a parameter to the state machine interpreter - as opposed to being contained in the interpreter object. This is helpful when building pure functional systems, where state is passed in from some external data store, like in Redux reducers.
Naming things is a classically hard problem in our field. There’s always room to improve.
That's a really nice example! Your whitelist is pretty restrictive. I was reminded of JSFuck where simply allowing six characters ( ) + [ ] ! would basically allow everything. Although I have to mention, your whitelist still permits undefined (such as x.x) as well as certain strings (0 + /./)

I'm also pretty sure the Google Closure library originally used whitelist checking + eval to parse JSON before JSON.stringify was a thing.
I can’t see any product info on the page you link (it’s just a static image; iOS 12 + Safari), but it appears to have a 50cc engine. $700 is still a pretty darn low price point, but I doubt it can go the advertised 95mph the scooter FTA claims. I’ve never seen a stock 50cc anything with claimed top speed above 50mph, so these are entirely different classes in both engineering and safety requirements.
You just speculate that this doesn’t happen, and bail if it does.

From the article: Recruiter spam is nothing new, but the idea of doing nationwide candidate searches for non-executives strikes me as awfully weird.

Allow me to offer an alternative view, this is entirely speculative.

Director level and above people are paid quite well in the Bay Area, after stock compensation it can get to to close to half a million dollars per year. Folks outside the 'bubble' as it were, might still be amenable to $150K to $200K for a salary. Thinking "wow that is double what I'm currently making, its a huge jump for me!" and its half of what other directors make.

So maybe they are trying to get senior management "on the cheap" and cut their payroll costs, they know that locally sourced candidates won't go for what they want to offer so they try to entice people from lower paid locales. If it works they get a director and still have enough left over to hire another engineer right?

Certifications are a way to bypass HR filters, and allow you to negotiate higher salaries. I agree that in terms of imparting actual skills and knowledge they are of minimal value. Being mentored by your peers, being involved in the community, and learning by doing are by far the best ways to learn Security. Certificates are relatively easy to earn and have high ROI in terms of salary and negotiating power in my experience.
> but the problem in moving to a better build system is that makefiles are so convoluted and hard to reason about

Nowadays Makefiles are largely autogenerated by the build system. How many people are actually editing makefiles by hand in non-pet projects?
If people use it (they do use eval) and it is optimizeable (eval is optimizeable) then whichever implementation optimizes it will be able to deliver a better overall experience.
But that is getting dangerously close to implying that different humans have different potential intelligence, and that's a very politically dangerous path to go down. The racial history of the US seems to make it a specially sensitive country to this issue.

Very good point, the political power of coal seems to be as much about cultural concepts of masculinity as anything else. It already employs many fewer people than alternative technogies:

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-05-16/solar-bea...

I also wonder whether the talk of coal being dirty and dangerous actually boosts its appeal to some voters. At the least solar and wind need to be seen as rugged. Maybe they should also play up scale, the latest offshore wind turbines, for instance, are absolutely massive.
This was my experience.

First I drew a post box that I can (normally) see from my window. It tried to tell me it was a house, and I managed to cancel out by accident in my search for a "not a house" option.

Second I drew a bush with lots of bubbly bits - very mario-esque - but it turned it into a spheroid.

Confusing if this is what was intended; but the UI was pretty.

It's shocking (and perhaps telling) that Internet users are so cynical that they assume someone to be deflecting when they put forward an argument.
I hear you and I agree with what you're saying to a certain extent.

For cryptocurrency to take off, though, it needs real use-cases. This is as real as it gets.
No need to get all worked up. As I said, I'm not idiomatically against AST manipulation at all. Just that I don't have a big issue with C preprocessor, which is a good solution for the simple cases. It doesn't improve the situation if you replace ## by programmatic access -- it's a little more involved but on the upside you can maybe expect slightly better error messages in case of wrong usage.

In the end, there are zero problems with my approach here, either. And the CPP doesn't encourage you to get too fancy with metaprogramming. Metaprogramming is a problem in its own because it's hard to debug. I've heard more than one horror story about unintelligible LISP macros...

Note that I am going to experiment with direct access to the internal compiler data structures for my own experimental programming language as well. But you need to realize that this approach has an awful lot more complexity. You need to offer a stable API which is a serious dependency. You need to offer a different API for each little use case (instead of just a token stream processor). If you're serious like Rust you also need to make sure that the user doesn't go all crazy using the API. Finally, it's simply not true that you need to understand less about parsing (the syntax) with an AST macro approach. The AST is all about the syntax, after all.
I would hope on HN of all places people wouldn't devolve into political flame wars and race baiting just because a completely factually accurate statement offends their sensibilities.

Great project! It's really interesting that you relied solely on a regular camera for depth perception. Way less expensive than working with RGBD images.

This article by a quillete editor but written for WSJ is horseshit. https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-visit-to-islamic-england-1535...

Note the correction:

> An earlier version mistakenly identified the public context of a sign that declared “Alcohol-restricted zone.” Such signs refer to a prohibition on public drinking and appear in many English neighborhoods, irrespective of Muslim population.

That's what you get when islamophobic idiots write articles about a country they don't understand. These signs really are common across England. There's one outside my house. (Muslim population in my street = 0, and in this part of town = < 2%). But the article is full of this kind of horseshit: "no one makes eye contact" - yep, this happens, but it happens between everyone regardless of religion: we don't talk to each other in the south. About the only thing that's true is that some mosques distribute unpleasant material. I'd ban it, but then I'd also ban this shitty article. Mr Ngo is a hypocrite for calling out these pamphlets while writing material as objectionable himself.

That was a very charged conversation emotionally, I was vulnerable and highly respectful, but still decisive and honest.

I refrained from exposing the case I had 'against' him to make the decision to move him from a potential cofounder role to an external advisory role. Instead, once decision was made, I committed for this to be as good as possible for everyone. I started bravely with the clear news, pointing out it had been my mistake to bring him on at that point.

I had taken serious time imagining his viewpoint. I talked about all the good he had brought to the project, for real, and all the good I valued about him, for real, and asked him to be an advisor (yes, he's been of value in that role, despite the hurt feelings).
> different humans have different potential intelligence

Different individual humans do have different potential intelligence. Cities everywhere attract intelligent people of all races and genders, this has nothing to do with the racial history of the US.
