That is how it starts, but on the customers I have worked so far it eventually evolves into a kind of mini-waterfall when the development team needs to interact with other departments, and moving tasks between sprints is yet another common activity.

Ah, and then there are the projects where Jira items are mapped into SAP items for project accounting, which introduce yet another "not so fun" discussion about when projects activities are supposed to be paid.
I had to look up "egregious", and as a foreign speaker, I am afraid I don't see a significant difference to "worst".

The argument made was that time travelers would go through the effort to punish miners, of all people.

There is a lot of other senseless wasting of energy going on theses days.

But that would be youtube pro subscriptions, right?

Because they already have all the content they watch there, and just want offline or ad-free.

Blinking lights save power and lead to longer battery life, hence the cycle lights with different blink settings. The power savings can be substantial, one of the back lights I use switches between 'full on' (3 leds, full power) and 'walking blink' (¼ second on/off). Subtract the (negligible) power used by the timer IC and you end up with a factor 6 difference in favour of the blinking light. Here in Sweden blinking lights are still allowed, one of the places where you'll meet them is on the railroad as Swedish trains have blinking back lights.

Building a city/neighborhood is a really bad example for an agile development tool: agile development is to be used in case requirements are not yet fully available.

In other words, the team is searching for the right and best solution to solve a problem.

In the author's example, the city is already fully planned and ready to be build, thus the solution to solve an existing problem already exists. Why to use agile?

Building a city/neighborhood is a perfect example for a waterfall implementation strategy which can be perfectly modeled with other tools.

As always - use the right tool for the right job and you'll be alright ;)
There’s two things I adore about Historia Civilis. One is the way he represents terrain and units on a battle field in battle related episodes. It might not look fancy but it gets the job done. Normally I struggle to imagine unfamiliar terrain so this helps a lot. The second is he passes the Gell-Mann test for me. There are certain sections in history I know really well because I’ve read multiple books on it and he gets those absolutely right. So when I watch an episode on an era I’m unfamiliar with, I’m confident he’s done his due diligence.
Looks like some people are celebrating their victory back at Palo Alto.

Cash has great properties of being truly distributed, not discriminating people and offline. In case of any electricity or network instability you can still buy an apple from elder causal gardener at his driveway market stall.
It seems to work well enough for at least some use cases, no matter how low the number of transactions. Further developments like Lightning Network are being worked on to enable other use cases.

I don't like if they burn coal for it, but there are also other energy sources, sometimes there is even spare energy that needs to be used somehow.
There are such people and they have Youtube channels. However I wouldn't underestimate the desire of geographical exploration just yet. Even if you can easily travel everywhere this ball we live on is still bigger than any single person can explore in a lifetime. Give me a single city (I'm a city person) in another country where I can stomach the food and exercise the language and I can easily spend a year before I get bored. And I bet there are more than 80 such cities on this planet.
Less than a week earlier, the story was quite different.

The best is when the team delivers 100% what was specified on the Jira items, do the demo after several failed attempts to get feedback and then they state that "it is nice but not really what we want".
On track to being a flop
Just like everyone else, they’re nailing down exclusives. I was going to buy my son the latest season of Thomas & Friends in digital (those Amazon Prime $1 digital store credits for delayed delivery do come handy), but apparently the only venue to do so is YouTube.com.
Smart-Gaze: AI powered coding for efficient Eye Tracking
Look, I am really tired of all this. It is very emotionally taxing for nothing. It is not easy to argue in a foreign language about subtle topics.

All I have tried to say is that there are language features based on extensive research. Erlang is one example, Go is another. There are obvious counter examples everyone know and love.

My first comment was about that by making an IO selector a language construct the need call Jetty which calls Netty, which call Shitty is eliminated, and the code could be reduced into a single function with a few helpers. This has been demonstrated by Rob Pike in every single fucking video on Youtube.

Creating another general purpose event-driven framework, Tokio or whatever, is, of course, very rewarding, especially for those imposers who call themselves "engineers", but it seems that engineering as a discipline is about reducing to an optimum, instead of piling up fancy bullshit. Every single video of Joe Armstrong on Youtube is about this very difference. We already have way too many Java frameworks.

We could actually compare into which assembly Go's code with select statement compiles versus Rust's code, including dependencies, but it is so obvious that it is almost frustrating to spell this explicitly. That is why I mentioned LOCs.

It is really frustrating to argue when some unknown idiots are flagging your posts without offering any single reason. BTW, if you want to know how shotings are originated - this is this exactly the way. But don't worry, I am very far away in some third world shithole, and I don't care that much.

In good old times, on LKML and everywhere else smart people would focus on meaning and ignore the style, which is one's own choice, while nowadays they attack our style, ignoring the meaning. So be it.

Just fuck this modern HN with all that SJW idiocy.
I'm curious about what, exactly, the people who take this seriously think they're preparing for.

In a scenario severe enough you're trying to make your own antibiotics, you can assume hospitals aren't functioning, which means civil society is gone.

You can't assume the government is gone, BTW: Every power vacuum will get filled, one way or the other, and there are plenty of unrecognized governments which are as governmental as they need to be to enforce their idea of order in a defined region.

Therefore... you, the prepper who was responsible enough to squirrel away tools and knowledge and supplies, are a target. If the government is trying to rebuild, it's going to be seizing supplies and, possibly, conscripting anyone capable of using those supplies who didn't have the good sense to leave when the getting was good. If the government isn't trying to rebuild... well, since when have gangs not looted anyone with stuff worth having?

It comes down to a survivalist fantasy, which amounts to one person, one family, one karass, against the world. A small, intimate group, as opposed to the granfalloon with guns which is called a military. Well... when a small group goes up against a big group, the small group is almost always fated to lose.

Bandwidth is cheap, when the users are actually paying customers. Churn, on the other hand is very expensive. I bet Netflix prefers heavy users over those who watch two movies a month: the latter people are much more likely to cancel the service.
What anecdote?

I've pointed out that most of the scams didn't actually involve a blockchain or tokens, as the SEC cases against a few of them show.

The question of who manages the list is important so we can tell what method was used and what's the motivation to keep it. One of the areas I'm most interested is cryptoeconomics and of course fairness and transparency matter to me which is why I wonder why would you defend this site as if you knew it to be true and accurate.

It's always nice to see Kasparov, who could have easily been salty for losing to a machine and given up on chess forever, instead keep in touch with technology and science to make the game better.

He's at the age where you could have expected him to be willfully ignorant on these sorts of things, but he chose not to be. I will respect him for that.
Yes, you're right; this is what I meant, and I see why my current wording is wrong.
> Does anyone else get irritated when...

Not really, I don't expect everyone to enjoy experiences in exactly the same way as me. Some like taking lots of photos of themselves or their friends, some like photos of just the landscape they're in, and others don't like photos at all. If it bothers you, find more like-minded people to hang out with so it doesn't become a nuisance.
People who disagree with this should bear in mind the context from the parent comment - we're talking about civil rights specifically, not whether one country is better than another in general. I don't think there's much room for debate on whether US has the most expansive freedom of speech protections, for example. Many people would argue that it doesn't do a good job of balancing those rights with other matters of importance, but that is a different conversation.
Last October (and this November) when the SF Bay Area was filled with smoke particles in the sky, I noticed the light was very "nostalgic".

And it did make me wonder if older color photographs had warmer tones due to Kodachrome, or simply because the skies were more polluted back then.

>It could. Moving across the country is cheaper and less risky now than ever before.

Is it? Rent itself was much cheaper in the past, even in New York.

As for the risk, back in the 50s to 80s, a worker had many options of finding work in tons of places. Now, much less so.
Probably because Charlie doesn't like Intel due to conflicts happening between them. Therefore, that make Charlie a bad guy, because he doesn't mindlessly spout praises in blind favour of Intel.

However, that doesn't mean that Charlie is suddenly an AMD fanboy, as I've seen the pro-Intel crowd proclaiming, as a attempt to defend Intel by smearing his reputation.
In terms of machine learning money is the opposite of regularization. The more money the less regularization the more over-fitting to your specific self-chosen environment. A not rich person will have to learn to cope with obstacles. A rich person can remove obstacles. But it is impossible to remove all obstacles which will lead to increased hostility towards those remaining annoyances - like for example with SUVs in traffic. Calling a nice comfy SUV your owns means you removed obstacles like hot and cold weather (thanks to elaborate climate control), people literally look up to you in your SUV (big ego gains - less obstacles in terms of having to deal with disrespect), both due to direct in indirect conditions you won't have to deal with car problems. But when you are in traffic you'll also feel aloof and drive accordingly - like you own the street. But you cannot enforce it. End every so often there will be a conflict with a guy driving a ridiculous, old, little Toyota who won't give you way or won't let you zip into his lane. Now you are heated because this puny peasant isn't acknowledging your ego. And that's just one example.
Yes, you're right. I have amended my comment; I had meant to say that Strings must have finite length. The "meat" of my comment was an argument that Strings could not infinitely long, which was exactly the opposite of what I actually ended up saying ;)
Then the flight date needs to be adjusted too, December 12 is not during DST for both of those locations.
Did the exact same thing, but was super paranoid, so bought CD-Rs from two different brands and and made two copies every time I burned a CD. One to send home, the other to carry with me throughout my journey.

One of my CDs did have some corrupt images, so that redundancy paid off.
It's a pity that Apple let Open Darwin die off, it definitely had a potential as a nice BSD platform.
Yeah - blame the developers. 90% of the “bad” code i have written was forced by the manager/company. The proper / structured way considered too expensive.
I signed up for the monitoring service they provided, and much to my delight I discovered the service retails for $130 annually.

I genuinely hope Marriott has to pay that price, even though I've given it no information to monitor except my email address.

I suggest as many people as possible sign up for this service.
Wrong, when paranoia replaces trust, no agreement gets struck, and business halts.

If I don't trust you, I don't even speak to you. I don't buy a sandwich from you, I don't buy a car from you, I don't fly planes over your territory without mach 3 interceptor escorts armed to the teeth.

If I trust you, but double check you, I buy the sandwich, but I don't leave the counter without opening up the bag, unwrapping the paper and checking for onions. I buy the car, but have a third party mechanic inspect it. I fly the plane through the territory, but also observe from orbital satellites, just in case.
>The "internet" was useful from conception.

It was useful but it was not understood to be useful by a large majority of people.

The crypto industry has developed novel crowdsourcing (ICOs, DAICOs, etc), fungible and non-fungible tokens, transparent voting mechanisms, token curated registries, oracles, prediction markets, state-channels, distributed time service, Zero Knowledge cryptography, leaderless consensus in distributed systems, fraud proofs, algorithmic stablecoins and a lot more.
Which civil liberties do you think that you have in Australia, which has serious issues with censorship and speech laws, which we do not have in the US?
> but rich people who display their wealth

This is the key IMO. I know a few people who fall into various of the categories mentioned and, well, you wouldn't know it meeting them. The place they live is probably the only real tell besides maybe watches and acessories. Apart from the occasional splurge - weddings, the occasional destination getaway - they're pretty thrifty. They didn't get rich by throwing money around uselessly.

And that "perspective" concept doesn't really work that way in practise from what I've seen. If first class tickets were $70 instead of $7k i would never fly anything else, but people I know worth 100x more than me sure don't act like they are.

Like any group of people I don't think it's possible to draw these generalisations. Culture and individual personality plays a huge role. I also imagine the more you feel you have something to "prove" the more likely you are to engage in conspicuous displays of wealth, but for a large number of people that doesn't seem to be the case.
Sure, but now you need C code that needs to be aware of your trampoline, specifically. Good luck if it's an existing library. Also, what happens if there are multiple interleaved C parts of the stack, and the innermost one invokes the trampoline? What happens to the ones in the middle? It all sounds awfully like setjmp/longjmp (which is the one thing that you never do in C if you want to interoperate with anything in a sane fashion).

And I don't think FFI direction matters much. The moment you have callbacks, your stack has interleaving of languages anyway (i.e. X called into Y which called back into X). Does it really matter which language the innermost and the outermost stack frames belong to? You still need to handle the mix in the middle.
Yeah, no kidding. Autocratic government against demonetization? Something seems weird about this.

Exactly! Do NOT create individual JIRA Task the size of each building/block. When planning a city, a JIRA Task is something like -

"Add switches to the bedroom of apartment 104 in the residential building at lot #10 on Sunshine street."

No wonder the author of this Techcrunch article is frustrated with JIRA. He is using JIRA wrong
(or more likely is being forced to use JIRA incorrectly)

One of the cardinal sins of project planning is to NOT decompose the activities into individual deterministic steps.

That's a cute saying, but let me know when you park your money in a bank that opened yesterday.
I'd be curious to see somebody do this for lower levels too. It'd be interesting to see where the step changes are.

Right now, if the money fairy came down and doubled my salary, I don't think I'd live that differently. Or if say $1M just landed in my bank account. I would worry less, but don't see me going out and finding things to spend more money on.

I think there's a lot of "wealth inertia" but it'd be interesting to see the idea explored. I think most people tend to live a certain lifestyle, and even if they could afford a higher level one, you probably don't immediately. The reverse is also true and tends to get people into trouble. I know if my salary started creeping downward it'd be very hard for me.

I wonder if this has been explored in any real detail - how much extra income really triggers lifestyle changes. Is it just affordability steps as the author claims?
I never claimed any company looked like amazon or google, only that the bear market has affected us similarly to how the 99 crash affected the .com companies.
Same here. It’s likely a Facebook partnership since for me at least the email was one I used on fb only. Not sure how someone else would guess that email.
If you tried to improve your condition with strenuous excercise... plus all other things you listed... paleo.. antidepressants... I'm beginning to suspect your improvement might be completely due to you stopping doing bad things to yourself while trying to improve your health.

You remind me of the people that start little unhappy but make themselves miserable for life by strenuously searching their happiness around everywhere.

That actually sounds like reasonable thing to do to your body.

Ask HN: How do you guys develop mental toughness?
I recently got done reading David Goggins book Can't Hurt Me where he advocates being uncomfortable as one of the key factors in developing mental toughness but his book was rather focused on how to do this via physical means, what are some tactics you guys use to develop intellectual mental toughness?
I often see a bad split between the ideas/specifications, and execution of a software project. On one side there's the project style where everything is designed and specified by non-programmers (i.e. people who don't end up coding the thing), then thrown to the programmers to make it work. On the other hand there's plenty of programmers that just want to write beautiful code and care little about how useful the result is.
In my opinion you get better results when most people involved are fundamentally problem solvers, some happen to be awesome at writing code, and all are working together closely.
Most crypto startups create open-source software and don't sell anything neither do they follow a for-profit business model so you are looking for the wrong thing in the wrong place.
Smart-Gaze: AI powered coding for efficient Eye Tracking
“What you see is what you buy”

It is believed that 95% of the purchase decisions happen in the subconscious (let’s call it the reptile brain). The decisions taken by the reptile brain are strongly influenced by what we see. When walking across a supermarket aisle, we see hundreds of packs of different products. But then, there are some products that capture our attention. When we see such products, the reptile brain kicks into action, it fixates its attention on that packaging that looks interesting (“ooh shiny!!!”) and before we know it — we enter the process of seriously considering to purchase that product.

Eye-tracking is a well known tool to implicitly measure how people respond to different product packaging, advertisement copies, web-page layouts, banner placements and more. Performing eye-tracking studies have the potential to generate tremendous RoI on product packaging, advertisement creatives and placement decisions. But, we (and the clients we speak to) believe that the industry is only beginning to scratch the surface when it comes to using this technique for generating insights. The reasons cited include that it is — expensive, slow, not objective (as participants get influenced by the process). However, we believe that the key reason is that the technology is not that developed yet.

With this whitepaper, we intend to demonstrate how embedding of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the current eye tracking technology can make the process of eye tracking analysis much more powerful, faster and cost-effective. Note that we assume that the reader is familiar with the eye tracking process for physical environments.
