For what it's worth, the feedback I've had so far elsewhere suggests that there aren't particular inaccuracies. A somewhat contentious part is defining concurrency in terms of order independence, but the main source for that is Peter Van Roy (https://www.info.ucl.ac.be/~pvr/VanRoyChapter.pdf section 4.3), so it's of good provenance.
My point was, angular is emphatically NOT the most simple component option. I, personally, can not think of a single use case where Angular (any version) is a better option than React, Vue or Polymer.
I have a hard time understanding why employees can't figure this out.

Maybe for children who don't know of future opportunities and what job expectations are, but anyone with a past job can easily compare.

Also, those 'rewards' that make noises and tell you 'GREAT JOB', get old. Seeing 10 unread notifications on facebook does not get me to click like it used to.

The concern is that a simple 'ban it', is a dangerously simple approach.

Sorry, but I have to correct you there. There is a infinite number of Relativistic Models possible. In the one that is currently used, you are indeed right.

But now I understand why Einstein wrote in his last book, after much thinking, that this perspective is wrong. He called it "unthinkable" for a good reason. The model I'm using also has relativity, but with an absolute frame. It also behaves differently in extreme situations like the surface of super massive black holes and and near field of a proton. In fact, I have much more relativity but not everywhere and it's paradox free :)
Apple has fallen short once when they sold an older model for a bit too long, and didn't support it with OS upgrades for more than a year or so, but compared to 90% of Android devices over the years that's not terrible.

Apple is a Rorschach test. You see what you want to see.

But if the NYT is all you need (and not to disparage them; they are a great news organization) then why are you on HN? Is there more that you are looking for here?
Speaking as someone from the NYC area at the time of the event, the anger was directed at Osama Bin Laden, al-Qaeda and the Taliban. There was a lot of anger, fear and the need to do _something_. That need was directed at Afghanistan very quickly, even though none of the perpetrators were Afghanistani. If I remember correctly, the link was that Bin Laden was hiding in Afghanistan and the government there tried to protect him instead of handing him over.
The point was in response to how "angular is the most simple..." where it is emphatically NOT so.

I see a lot of projects recommend triaging tickets or writing unit tests, but those both seem to be areas that require substantial knowledge about the state of a project, so as a newbie they don't feel accessible.

It would be cool to see lists of how you can triage (e.g. encouraging people to help reproduce) or add tests (e.g. areas that could use more tests).
Finally, my lazy habit of ending up with several hundred open tabs may be considered a safety feature, diluting the cache fingerprints to a faint whisper
From the paper [1]:

Each round of attack consists of three steps.
In the first step, the cache is primed, i.e.,
the attacker completely fills some of the
cache sets with its own data. The attacker
then waits some time to allow the
victim to execute. Finally, the attacker
probes the cache by measuring the time
it takes to access the previously-cached
data ...

From a brief glance, it looks like they then use the timing to feed into a deep neural network classifier.

Yes, I worked in "anti-piracy" for some years and that whole industry is a mass of delusions of adequacy, coupled to a client base of some of the most morally torpid, personally horrible people I've ever encountered. The products we worked on we're basically to assist bastardry by Big Content, and most were poorly built (one team led by a dessicated chain smoking codger with a right hand manjaw of a coder, basically used Java with the same attention to detail one would expect from a lemur on meth) and another kept shoving out POCs into production with zero sense of a release process. It was a total mess, for products that should all have been stillborn.

I think commodities futures markets exist so that the normal commodities markets don't screw everybody over too much.

You're totally right about there being a few big players in production and so on. That's part of the problem. Because every farmer has had to operate and compete in this insane globally connected commodities market, what we're left with now after decades is a few big players. That's what you get when a German farmer has to compete with the US farmer, the Chinese farmer, and the Russian farmer, all the others and vice versa. Everybody loses and gets bought up by the bigger fish. That's a symptom of this market though, not a cause. And in my eyes, it's not a very good symptom either.

> Go ahead - sell a couple hundred thousand pounds of grain. "Simply" put it on the market... how do you do that reliably? How can you plan as a farmer ? Budget for seed, etc?

Well, I wouldn't know how of course, but that's not the point. Humanity has done the grain thing successfully, on large scales and over long time periods, multiple times in the past. Without a commodities futures market to keep prices stable.

I'm just saying this isn't the only way to do trade, and in a lot of ways, it's a very bad way to do trade.

Did you mean to look to another episode? That one is about being judged by other individuals, resulting in low (or high) ratings due to petty superficial interactions.

> I'm sure many car enthusiasts care whether the steering wheel is entirely absent....

Perhaps I was ambiguous. You're reading my intent backwards. Few people specifically want the steering wheel to be gone. They generally just want to not care about it.

> If someone who found driving therapeutic instead spends their commute time staring at a social media feed on their phone because that's their default action when they aren't sure what to do, would that be fundamentally better for them?

The car enthusiasts I know still don't like sitting in traffic. It's not the fun sort of driving.

> Of course everyone wants self-driving cars to go where they tell it, but that is different from having control over where the car goes. What if the AI that controls the self-driving car takes 99% of people to their destination, but rounds up a few political dissidents and whisks them away to an unknown location. Most everyone would get what they want, but none of the passengers are able to control where the AI takes them. Like Stallman says, "Either the users control the program or the program controls the users."

I don't know what to say in response to this. This feels over the top absurd to me. If your government is this fundamentally evil and amoral, I don't think driving your own car is going to protect you. There are already lots of ways to get rid of political dissidents.

What do you need that isn't in the box with React? Aside from fetch, which is in all modern browsers? The new Context component interface pretty much flushes out the last of what you are likely to need. As much so as what you get in the box with Angular. Even then, with Angular you'll usually need at least a visual component library, and with React, disparate components tend to work together with less friction comparatively.

gdb has checkpoint/restart that uses fork(), though you have to specify the checkpoints manually. https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Checkpoint_002fRes...

Just did a quick google search, the article was written in 2014 so the annual GDP of Iceland leading up to that period were:

$13.3B in 2010

$14.7B in 2011

$14.3B in 2012

$15.6B in 2013

$17.3B in 2014

So presuming the article was written prior to the 2013 GDP figures being released then the statement was indeed correct when made (and may still be barring new information about revenue growth).

Really excellent perspective on this. However, I don't think we should downplay anyone giving away that amount of money. I'd rather someone give away $100M compared to $0 even if its peanuts for them based on their personal finance.

It seems odd that society feels entitled to decide what the richest person in the world should and shouldn't do with their money. I don't disagree with premise that he can hand away $5B and still not bat an eye but why is it out decision to make?

I’m “starting the conversation” when I send out the resume. When I go through a reputable recruiter my resume never goes down a black hole.

I’ve gotten a phone screen 100% of the time my resume has been submitted by a recruiter - the only exception was an immediate response from the company that they filled the spot already.

Not that I am a special snowflake, but if you know the qualifications that the company is looking for up front, you can tailor your resume to highlight those qualifications. If you don’t have the qualifications you don’t bother submitting your resume.

Democracy the denotative Ideal: rule by the people. In capital-I Ideal form that implies all of the people, otherwise you have some form or another of an oligarchy or theocracy or plutocracy.

The US has always been a compromise between the Ideal and what was seen as practical, codenamed "Representative Democracy" or "Democratic Republic", so it is intentionally never been a strong example of the core tenets of (the ideal form of) democracy, and wasn't originally built to be. It can be said that progressivism in the US has had it a long term goal to make the US more of an ideal democracy, including the ever-widening push towards universal suffrage. That struggle continues and the debate goes on, just as Heinlein's book here is a part of that debate and whether or not the US actually wants an ideal democracy / universal suffrage.

But yes, earned suffrage systems do not make for an ideal democracy, and do seem to be in history slippery slopes towards oligarchy and plutarchy, if not outright fascism and dictatorship. "Merit-based" suffrage systems have been used by dictators to seize power. It's surprisingly easy to do when you control the tests of who can vote that only the people that want to vote for you can vote at all.

I think this line of reasoning subtly assumes mind-body dualism[1]. Intelligence is necessary but not sufficient for the creation of technological civilization. Dolphins and other cetaceans are an example incredibly smart creatures that lack the necessary lifestyle and opposable thumbs to create technology. Octopi are likewise excellent problem solvers whose technological ambitions are thwarted by a very short lifespan and a generally solitary nature.

Human technology is at the crossroads of the right physical attributes mixed with the right kind of intelligence and subjected to the right kind of evolutionary pressures. There may be (or may have been) creatures with more "raw" intelligence that cannot be applied to the development of technology because one of the other factors is missing.

Well, if she would name the bookstore, I'd be happy not to visit it next time I'm in Corvallis.

More seriously, yes, I see the appeal of staying in the university world, or anyway in a university town. Unfortunately, the appeal of the life means that there are always plenty of people willing to take entry-level jobs there for poor wages. As for the bookstore, I'm sorry about the wages--and sorrier about the customers--but the difference between a high school senior and a published Ph.D. is probably not substantial when the job is shelving books, running the register, answering questions.
