> So it is possible (though pretty unlikely) that Boeing failed to follow their protocol, e.g. didn't send out the right notices on a timely bases or something

From what I have been reading in other articles (sources available if you wish), most of the comments from folks in the industry have been that Boeing DIDN'T give the normal, proper notice to airlines. The prevailing sentiment is that most everyone was caught relatively unaware that this feature had been shipped on the new airframe. Mind you this is mostly hearsay from mainstream media, so I am taking this with a grain of salt. Oversights tend to get sensationalized.

When I browse the web, I disable JS by default. In overwhelming majority of the cases, it makes everything so much faster and nicer.
This isn't about JS frameworks, it's about rendering data on page load.

Whether the server renders the data into HTML it responds with or there's some XHR request made by a client library (including VanillaJS) or framework, you're always incurring some cost. But data-on-load what users generally want and expect from modern web apps.

Having recently built an almost 100% HTML-based web app, I can tell you the user interactions feel unpleasant. Removing JS from web apps is silly at this point.

They cap the $10/GB at 6, so it's effectively an unlimited talk/text/data plan for $80/month which is about average in the US.
Hold up, another Floridian, these are only used when the mosquito populations sky rocket out of control. These are last resort measures when water control tactics failed. Typically after massive flooding occurred in an area.

This was the go to solution in the 90s. Yes. Totally. At least in both Hillsborough and Pasco county that I can personally attest to. But that changed in the 2000s when the casualties of it were apparent. Now, it's only when too many phone in and complain about mosquito bites and mosquito traps show populations are too high in an area.

Unless you're in a really backwater county...cough...Dixie county...cough... Then yea, I think some commissioners don't care and do what they want. But it does go against state guidelines to just truck-spray all the time. But I think part of the guidelines also state when a mosquito trap finds one infected mosquito, it's free game to go nuts with the trucks. If I also remember right, only a certain amount of truck sprays are covered by the state per year (the chemicals, lic and maintenance is expensive). After the county does a certain amount, they have to pay out of pocket. You might want to FOIA the department that handles mosquito control in your county.
I'm actually struggling to find any kind of comprehensive list, but I'll point out that I've used Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA first-party drivers in Linux over the years. I'm sure there are countless others.
Because really hot plasma doesn't emit in visible range, it's all x-ray, so what you are seeing is it's (relatively) cool edge. It might have colder regions, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the main volume is unstable.
The reliability of the least reliable carrier can bring down the reliability average. Just yesterday I could not make any outgoing calls because of a Sprint outage. Luckily the Signal Spy app makes it easy to switch to another carrier.

It's nice in a way since if a carrier is having an outage, you can manually switch, but I like for stuff to just work.
You know what would be _maybe_ a good idea? on macOS, when you use the default PDF viewer you can add signatures to documents. If you don't already have a signature, it lets you draw on the trackpad like it represents the screen, no need to click! just draw on it like it's a piece of paper and you have some ink at the tip of your finger.

What if you did the same thing, where the trackpad represents the entire whiteboard. Maybe it's too small, or maybe it would work perfectly :)
Thanks for the explanation, it indeed makes sense that coverage for much denser area like Western Europe is less expensive than for low density zones.

It is still the case:

> When you travel abroad in 210+ countries and destinations you will have unlimited data at up to 128kbps [...]. If you frequently travel internationally and require a higher speed you can add T-Mobile One Plus™ and get up to 256kbps speeds abroad for $15/mo.

For full disclosure their "One Plus" offering does include other things:

- HD streaming.

- 20GB of 4G LTE mobile hotspot data.

- Unlimited in-flight Wi-Fi.

- Voicemail to Text.

So you can debate if Fi (international 4G) or T-Mobile w/One Plus (in-flight Wi-Fi) is superior for international travel.
Is it though? A much simpler explaination is that China - like any nation - can compel it's citizens quite easily to do something (carrot or stick). And tapping into/backdooring infrastructure a very effective approach.

How do the Five Eyes governments know this? Because they were doing the exact same thing, with help from e.g. telcos. But most foreign telcos are somewhat well
monitored, so attacking the hardware is the next logical step.

There's no mystery here, it's just they can't come right out and say "this is how we would have done it", because they probably did.
> Now, it's led to a level of imposter syndrome

I challenge that what you're feeling is imposter syndrome in this case. I posit it's the realization that at the next economic downturn, should you find yourself out of work and the landscape for being hired is more competitive, you are at a strategic disadvantage.

Upward mobility into Director/VP roles is also quite limited without a degree, even though a degree in CompSci has little to do with running a business.
> they can't even come up with 1/3 of the speed of a 2016 Xeon

Ultimately it's the total cost to run your application that's important, not the raw speed of a particular core. So 1/3 speed is no problem if it's 1/4 the price (indeed this is the kind of trade-off you'd hope for in an ARM server).

Sadly from the same tweet thread that quote came from: 'All in all: Amazon having Arm-based offering is a great first step, but it does not seem to be a particularly appealing one at the moment, (at least for me: especially since the cost difference is nonexistent if I was to match my existing performance.)'. So, for this particular application at least, the A1 instances aren't giving a good cost/performance ratio.

The big challenge for this are different screen layouts.

Mobile + desktop support is basically a hard requirement. A tablet-optimized version is nice to have.

This gets very hard to do well with just CSS.
From my experience it's the opposite, a mediocre programmer will create way more code than needed because they don't try to understand, but just blindly copy conditions and cases they see in the surrounding code (cargo cult). This leads to more convoluted code that looks clever and covers edge cases that wouldn't exist if it was coded properly or if they pushed back.
Then the experienced programmer comes in and rewrites it to solve the actual problem with as few lines as possible.
The secret of Hell, I think, is that you get there before death. By doing evil things, you invite an evil mentality into your mind which will prey on you as you become more feeble. The final transition from deathbed to the eternal fire is just a formality. If you plant the seeds of hell in your mind, they will be all that remains in the end.

I guess some people think they will never become feeble, that they will maintain the power to keep the evil stuff separate from the rest of their life. But we are all enfeebled in the end.

> Being a Communist member isn't a SIN. And Ma openly said he is a fan of Mao and would not hesitate to hand over Alipay to the 'country', had the government asked for it.

I'm surprised that being a communist member isn't a sin, but being a nazi is (I assumed you do think being a nazi is), I'll skip the history lesson here, you can look both up. Also, handing Alipay, an app full of personal information to aid widespread surveillance of an authoritarian government is a sin in itself. If you don't think it is, you need to check your moral compass.

The problem with the CCP is this: the party and the state are the same thing. The CCP controls the security and armed forces, and they answer to no one but themselves. Therefore, if the party wants Jack Ma to do something, especially now that he's a member, he's subject to the disciplinary actions of the CCP, which can range from being renditioned, kidnapped, having family arrested, to house arrest and "being suicided" due to "depression". He joining the party can mean only 2 things, he condones these methods or he's completely under control by them and will execute any CCP demands, reasonable or otherwise.

This is news is because the tech sector, even in China, has traditionally been able to escape getting too tied up to the party's politics, even if they have to censor content. The fact that they have to swear party allegiance now means all that have changed, and now the tech companies have to obey to the party absolutely. Given there's effectively no check and balances to the party, this is very concerning.

Ask HN: Why are interviewers not playing the game?
I often hear people saying that a candidate should always ask clarifying questions to the interviewer. On paper it sounds wonderful but I often noticed that at least 50% of the interviewers don't open up. Asking clarifying questions is seen has "well, obviously you're not answer my original question" instead of "sure let's narrow down the scope so you don't waste too much time on unnecessary things".

In other words, it feels like for at least half of the interviewers, asking questions is a sign of not performing so well versus performing well and really playing the game to turn the interview into a nice technical conversation, rather than a question/answer type of thing. Why is that?
Well, it depends. I started reading HN around 21, when I was doing my first startup, which quickly failed because of problems with my personality — lack of self-awareness, bad work ethic, but most importantly, unsolved emotional problems. I'd never say that I've worked all these issues out, but age experience and hard labour I've put into therapy certainly help with self-improvement. Not to mention that my CV is more impressive, which puts me into a completely different position in the labour market.

So, if you don't go to harder goals and projects, like having children, life can get easier. But it's always your conscious decision to move on to a harder difficulty level.

I prefer the MPA (multi-page application) approach for most projects. If interactivty is needed, I use REST services and a data-binding framework on the front end.
The means the party now also has control over his personal lives.
I think technology has allowed power to become more and more concentrated. Never before has one state had the power to annihilate entire cities, or land entire armies worth of troops at any point on earth within 24 hours. Never before have large and powerful organisations and governments had the capability to read every word that every person sends to each other and track their every motion around the city with cameras.

Yes there is more surplus, but where is that going? People in developed societies are working more hours now than they were 100 years ago. Wealth inequality has risen to higher levels than ever existed in modern society. I wish it gave me more time to read books...

We definitely need to be more engaged in resisting these dangerous tendencies, particularly with recent political developments. I think organised tech workers have immense power. If Google employees could formalise their current actions and then even unite with other groups across other companies, they would be a force to be reckoned with.

The many mobile browsers which hide the address bar are training people to ignore website urls.

Sites who use lots of nonsensical malware-ish url redirects (Google, Microsoft are guilty) train people to accept random urls.

I guess the chief culprits are email tracking links. Everyone including banks use them. Often tracking domains have nothing in common with the destination URL. This teaches people to disable or ignore email provider warnings and click any link in official sounding emails.
This was inevitable, and I’m sure the engineering from Amazon’s side is impressive because Lustre is an absolute beast to run well at scale, but I’m not sure how great an idea it is for most people.

Coming from an academia HPC background and then moving into the private sector, I’ve mostly come to believe that parallel filesystems (especially POSIX-compliant ones) are rarely the right solution outside of MPI simulations. Like NFS, it makes it extremely easy and attractive to implement anti-patterns like using the filesystem for IPC or generating a bazillion files and then needing to reduce them to move to the next stage of the pipeline. In my experience, it’s rare that people don’t regret doing that sort of stuff in the long run.

Yes, I was experiencing deja-vu for half a good half paragraph before checking the date.
Guy lost me a couple sentences in, right about here: "I’ve only been up and around for about 4 years, a happy ignorant high school teenager before that. I have yet experienced more professional hardship in these four years than most people do in all of their lives."

I realize the guy is young and hope he is just using hyperbole and does not honestly believe what he is saying.

I'm willing to bet the guys that queue outside of places like Lowes and Home Depot hoping to just get some day labor to feed their families experience quite a bit of hardship. Probably same for the guys that sneak over the border to get jobs working on farms to send money back to their families, or the person that works for a company for 20 years and is laid off. The author willingly dropped out of college to start a business.

I never really understood professional stress until I got to the point where I realized my kids eating depended on me bringing home an income. Whenever I get stressed about work it helps to realize that the problem is probably solvable and that I have it no where near as bad as these guys doing back breaking physical labor to do the same thing I am trying to do, feed people they care about.

I wish the author nothing but success but he is being a tad dramatic.

On the bright side, at least your data won't get stolen by a fourth party while it's being stolen by a third party.
The Gates foundation alone has granted more than $2 Billion on Malaria vaccine, control, and protection research.

Vaccines, in general, make a lot more sense for diseases spread by human to human contact due to herd immunity. Since malaria isn't spread that way, vaccines in general would be much less effective. And the number of people you would need to vaccinate is massive (north of one billion), as well as any new children who are born (infants make up a significant number of Malaria deaths).
> The home prices are the data to support my hypothesis. If there wasn't demand for houses then prices would fall. Demand for houses means people want to move there. If there were a net migration out of the state, prices would be dropping.

This is true in general, but it isn't as immediate as you are making it out to be and doesn't give you any insight into how long it takes for the price to correct itself. The migration trends are 1-2 years old at this point. If my hypothesis is correct, expect to see your pricing drops soon (towards the middle to end of next big moving season, typically May 15 to August 31st), but only to a certain level and then it will make more sense for the builder to go under and let the banks take the hit.
Biased != incorrect.

If your biases and Reuters’ biases match, then you won’t notice anything biased or wrong in Content published by them. I think it’s up to you to figure out and identify which of the (many) biases are obvious in Reuter’s content of Asian and south East Asian countries (not just India)
Why must everything be absolute? You can have urban farming and rural farming. Urban farming would obviously have to happen gradually, so start with easier stuff. It's not "impossible". The point is that it will reduce pressure from rural areas which are going to be stressed significantly in the coming decades.

They are useful, but also a bit dangerous. Case in point, a few years ago I foolishly thought that I'd "just take a few minutes to fix the Django URLValidator". I picked up where someone else had failed a year previously (that should have warned me).

After a lot of time I finally got the test suite to pass and was happy, naïvely thinking that "if it passes the tests it must be correct". Unfortunately I also integrated a nice case of catastrophic backtracking into the regex that timgraham fortunately caught. This could have resulted in DoS-attacks against web forms that contain validated URL fields. (This is especially nice when doing it against non-asynchronous Python servers.)
