And this comment is just a subtextual justification for making sure you still feel valued for not doing anything unusual.

This could go round and round. The point is that there SEEMS to be a correlation with people who learn things for the sake of learning them and folks who do well at exercises that test for adjacent skills.
Mozilla was developing a private Reading List feature that used Firefox Sync. They suddenly replaced it with Pocket, which sent users' bookmarks to a third party that engaged in data mining. (The acquisition came later.)

Users suspected money was involved. Mozilla employees insisted that Pocket hadn't paid for the integration. Months later, it came out that there was a referral deal.

Pocket was and is an extension. It just gets special treatment.

Mozilla acquired Pocket in early 2017 and said they would release the source code. That still hasn't happened.
No. There is plenty of remote contract work available for people with much experience (esp. with legacy or open source software.) It really also depends heavily about what sector you want to go in.
“Why was Bell Laboratories such a locus of smart people?”
I'm less familiar with the situation in France, but I'm going to guess that they share some players in common with the foreign propagandists we had here in the US. They weren't nationalists - they backed nationalists. And they also backed anti-nationalists. The intent was to cause division and strife, and thereby weaken the country. Because this is a foreign power trying to weaken the country, labeling them "nationalists" is completely mistaken.
I don't recall any "horrible very bad choices". The country voted against corruption, against being like Venezuela, against being bought by China, against letting criminals have defenseless prey, and against being pointlessly hostile to the USA. IMHO, things are really looking up for Brazil.
TLDR; post is without much of clear systematic argument. It seems author is saying it's better if kids are not forced to practice syntax and instead spend their time in problem solving with physical activities.

Ask HN: What are search tools that works for the average user?
When it comes to search on internal company documents or any no completely open document, the standard search feature in these days is based on Elastic Search. Most of the search APIs out there are based on Lucene or Solr and, at best, they do synonym matching and edit distance to deal with misspelled words. But they still just look at how many words in the query are matched for the ranking.

These engines work if the user know how to search and who write content knows how to be found. If you look at the searches of a person that was not using the Internet until 6-10 years ago, they are not trained to search on those engines. You would be amazed looking at what they type in a search box.. Unfortunately, Google “delivers” on those queries so they do not have to learn.

And by the way, we all became spoiled by Google a little bit. For example I rarely end up changing my query on Google to find what I want while I used to have to try at least 4 or 5 similar phrases before.

Confluence wiki's I think is based on Lucene and the search is terrible even if you know how to search.

Try to put "tool to fix a clog" in Amazon and contextualwebsearch.com (I think they use Lucene) to laugh out loud. Compare them with Google. Bing does pretty well too on this query.

Is there anything that goes even close? I prefer something opensource but I am open to close source solutions.
No. I have to believe that you are being intentionally obtuse.

You are essentially taking the position that anywhere you go, I am suddenly not permitted to photograph that place without your specific consent.

This is the obvious position of tyrants. Its what every corrupt or brutal police officer says to us when we use cameras for defense.

Then, you are taking the position that somehow, your position is actually a bulwark against dystopia.

I don't make a distinction, for the purposes of my basic, fundamental human rights (such as to the fruits of my vision, including journalism) between photons and photos.

I am unable to understand any consistent way to apply your position that doesn't include a claim that the literal, physical particles that bounce off or you and into my sensor are somehow your property.

This is just an absurd position on its face. I don't know why I'm still arguing with you.

Fortunately, we live in a physical world and you are unable to interrupt the basic principles of physical reality, including the fact that photos come into my position regardless of your "consent". Thus, I'll just take your photo, I won't ask consent, and we'll all live with that.
It's supposed to link the whole state, not just LA to the Bay
I don't disagree. However, if I understand what Satya Nadella is trying to do with Microsoft, I would expect to see growth in open source Windows targeted software.

For me, I think a reasonable definition of a healthy development platform is one where developers are investing their time and sharing their expertise to develop tools and applications specifically for that platform. Having a windows focused code base for web browsing and all of the components that entails could be an encouraging reef from which open source eco-systems could spring.
I would expect it to be like renting a more expensive car but you can sleep in it for the ride over. Cost needs to beat luxury bus or flight + cost of ubering around in the city
I come to Germany all the time. The reality on the ground is no different: people enjoy a right to use cameras (and otherwise conduct journalism). I didn't even realize you had this absolutely stupid law on the books, but for your sake, I'm glad its unenforced.
The collateral damage of Tumblr’s porn ban
One note regarding revocations.

Recently a bank in Brazil got leaked the private key for its main domain (and internet banking frontend). The leaker tried to ransom the bank but wasn’t happy, so he went to the press with a detailed report of what he got, and included a message signed with the bank’s key as a proof. The bank denied everything.

But the more interesting thing was that, when confronted about the key, they said it was indeed legit, but their site was already using a new certificate for a while, so everything is ok. And part of the press bought it, including sites targeted to technical audiences. That’s how much a lot of people in real world don’t know exactly how PKI works.

It took a few weeks until the leaked cert was finally revoked. And now I wonder if it was really the bank who did it.
Recently migrated all my sleep cycles to bedless infrastructure.

(I know it's not really "bedless", but whatever, at least I'm feeling better rested lately)
I know I’m certainly not. I work for a major bank in Canada in their iOS application and we have one of the most robust remote working situations I’ve seen.

Getting to the city center, though, is often problematic. You either follow the existing railroad lines, which often have tight curves, or you build your own, which involves ripping out a long path through the already-existing city.
I tried and simply couldn't do it. Although I know in my case it's a very specific issue with multiple profiles.

I have a work and personal profile for Chrome and even tho I could make that work on Firefox, one very simple thing makes it completely unusable to me: clicking a link always opens on one particular window/profile.

On Chrome whatever window you last used will be the one opening the url, which is extremely necessary when using multiple profiles.

Perhaps one day that's going to be implemented and I can go back to the good old FF.

Way to go, repl.it team!

Hard to believe 7 months have already gone by since I was working with you on this prototype! I took a peek at some of the websocket messages, and I'm glad to see its come a long way since I last saw it :-D

This launch seems to perfectly cover the vision of collaborative coding that the repl.it community has been clamoring for!

> Oh come on! No one here, other than yourself, has tried to claim that exponential cost reductions will continue indefinitely.

The OP did, which is what I was responding to. He mentioned the current exponential decrease in battery costs, and said "I see no reason for that not to continue".

They then drew a direct analogy to Moore's law to explain how such exponential gains can be sustained. I disagree.

Of course, even the GP probably agrees they won't continue "indefinitely" but my claim is that they can't even continue for very long (the higher the rate of cost reduction, the shorter it can be sustained).

> But it is a fact, that solar experienced that type of cost reduction for a period of 2-3 decades.

Kind of, there were certainly long periods of stagnation in solar panel costs, but also periods of large drops. It also depends how your pick your starting point.

One has to ask (as you did) whether today's batteries are more like the low-volume niche product of 70s solar panels, or more like today's solar panels. I'm willing to bet the latter, both because batteries have seen substantial investment to date (I'd wager much more than solar panels), and because the existing scale of battery manufacturing is already massive (c.f., gigafactory). Furthermore, there are no apparent revolutions in battery technology on the horizon.

So rather than being at the start of a precipitous drop in battery prices, I think we are somewhere near the middle, and the drops from here will mostly slow down not speed up.
Yeah. If I was paid the same for the actual output I produce I estimate I could hold the equivalent of at least 3 desk jobs simulatenously and triple my income. I suspect the same is true for many people. Large companies are not very efficient at utilizing people. Ironically I think companies in which people work remotely a lot tend to be the most results-oriented and less tolerant of people wasting time...because there is no way to keep up an illusion of productivity with “butts in seats”. So what you end up with is quite contrary to the myth of remote workers being unproductive.
> Also, division by zero is an runtime operation error, it is not really a type error

.. in most languages. This is not universally true however. Consider a language with dependent types whose division function has a type signature like so: div : Nat -> (y : Nat) -> (y > 0) = True -> Nat, which basically requires a proof that can be verified at compile time that y is bigger than 0. In such a language you would not have a division by zero runtime error.

You can even have something similar (but much more painful to use) in languages without dependent types, consider:

data Nat1 = Succ Nat1
| One
data Nat = CNat1 Nat1
| Zero
div : Nat -> Nat1 -> Nat
The simple facts seem to be that we have lost our capabilities to deliver these types of projects. I voted against it at the time assuming it could never be build with cost assumptions they put forth. Good concept with lots of potential benefits. Unfortunately we have zero chance of being able to to do it at a reasonable cost.

Agreed. I use VS Code now because I needed syntax support for new es7+ and graphql.

But I miss sublimes speed it was unmatched, and the jump to symbol using @ or # in a file is worthless in vs code because it waits to calculate until you use it.
Agreed. Lin Clark has a special skill.

Southwest flight skids off end of runway at Burbank Airport
Why does it seem that the U.S. has become incapable of building large projects in a reasonable amount of time and budget? It seems every major bit of construction is always years late, and billions over budget. Whether it's the Bay Bridge (half of it), or a new Space Shuttle replacement, or just fixing our bridges and other infrastructure, I've never read of a large public project actually coming in on time and on budget.

In China, they're building infrastructure so fast it's crazy. Regardless of the different social and political systems, we just seem to have lost all ability to function as a society to create big things that we need. Imagine if we wanted to build something like the Hoover Damn today?

I have to assume it has something to do with half the population trying to actively disrupt anything positive the government wants to do, and if they can't completely kill the project, they try to profit off it as much as possible, essentially "proving" that government is inefficient, if not outright incompetent.
They used the same config as TCEC.

"Stockfish was configured according to its 2016 TCEC world championship superfinal settings: 44 threads on 44 cores (two 2.2GHz Intel Xeon Broadwell CPUs with 22

The "standard cell" would be without protection in the first place. It's not like the batteries materialize out the ether with protection circuits which are then removed for Tesla: the basic product Panasonic sells are the bare cells.

On top of those bare cells, third parties may add protection circuits, or maybe Panasonic does it themselves in some cases.
I didnt think I would comment on the second part, but it is really bugging me. Sorry for the double post.

Distributing sexted images that were meant for you is something I would consider to be wrong. Do you disagree with that?

It seems to be also illegal in the US? Is there an assumption of consent for replication given during the transmitting in your cultural sphere?

I never assumed there was that big of a difference in something I consider one of the most basic degrees of morality. Not just as a society, but also as the names states "hackers". In Germany we have the CCC, the chaos communication club (you might know the chaos communication congress). Their mission statement is the hacker ethic

https://www.ccc.de/en/hackerethik

>Make public data available, protect private data.

>To protect the privacy of the individual and to strengthen the freedom of the information which concern the public the yet last point was added.

It was best summarized by one of the CCC speakers on the topic of "Celebgate". It was across the lines of "ofcourse you can look at it, but then you're just an asshole"

Intimate pictures of another person are private data and should only be accessible to people the person consented to.

edit: Ok the definition on wikipedia actually differs with the translation

>The term is also often misused to describe non 'revenge' scenarios, including nonconsensual pornography distributed by hackers or by individuals seeking profit or notoriety.

Well thats dark

These problems are not present on Chrome.
Endeavoring to solve all of our transportation problems in a single rail line seems like the underlying issue. If HSR had been built successfully and fairly directly, on or under budget, it would have been much easier to muster political support for future expansions.
“It ended up in an area called the Engineered Material Arresting System (EMAS).

EMAS is a safety system designed to stop planes if they go off the end of a runway, according to the FAA. Wheels from a plane sink into soft material to stop it.”

No one injured. I wasn’t onboard but this is the route I routinely fly between Burbank and Oakland.
For $100B you could buy ~33,000 $3M-dollar electric commuter planes with 10 person capacity and 600mi range - not quite anything like that on the market yet mind you - but it seems close at hand. You could cover nearly the whole state, not just LA <--> SF, and have 330,000 person capacity. By what measure would this train be better?

Certainly not economic, noise, land-use, speed, convenience, coverage, or flexibility. Probably in terms of operational costs - but not by a huge margin. And the economics change if you scale the capacity down to match the train system and invest the rest to partially cover the operating costs.

And it took me 5 minutes to think of a (possibly) better plan than theirs.
Google has not yet transitioned from the U2F API to the Web Authentication API for login so no, not yet. (We're working on it, but there's quite a lot of moving pieces.)

Also, as another comment noted, only CTAP2 is supported for the host to authenticator API, and only the newest Yubico tokens support CTAP2.

Thanks for the heads up; I hear 'iterate as fast as possible'.

How would you recommend developing cash flow? Aside from ads, I mean. Do you have any experience with in-app purchases? Other methods of generating cash-flow?
I'm not saying there's anything missing, just that there isn't much in it; it's a mirror of the already-existing "tethered RISC-V" proxy kernel, with a trivial hello-world app on top of it (the app listens for messages over the "HTIF" interface, uses NaCL to encrypt/decrypt them, and implements essentially "hello world").

Compare to the object/capability schemes in modern L4s.
Normally our attention is almost always concentrated. On something useful or something useless (or harmful), consciously or unconsciously, attached to one particular thing for longer or shorter but it usually is. Even while daydreaming, dreaming or procrastinating, wandering ≠ deconcentrated. The clue is to deconcentrate it so it would no more be a point but a line (generally useless yet an important first step), a surface (good to read, observe a dashboard or look for something) or the entire space around you (extremely useful for drivers, great for general safety) and inside you (very important for freedivers, also establishing a habit of sustaining this state of presence and conscious awareness is a huge step in spiritual development). This has a lot to do with Carlos Cataneda's Nagualism and with the Tibetan tradition of Dzogchen[1].

I can hardly express the whole intro into the practice here, the actual intros are about a hour long (e.g. this one[2] (in Russian)) and that's just intros, but let me suggest trying a couple of simple exercises:

---

1. concentrate your attention on both sides of your vision field at the same time.

2. concentrate your attention on the whole perimeter of your vision field - the four sides simultaneously.

3. concentrate (= deconcentrate in this case) your attention on your whole field of vision.

4. try to maintain this state for some (whatever, avoid forcing yourself to exercise for longer than you want so you won't start hating it, even a couple of dozens of seconds is ok, it's not a kind of a meditation where you are meant to sit still and do) time, practice every day (people are normally meant to practice for about 1-3 months to master this but I've got it much faster and you probably can do rather quickly to).

---

If you wear contact lenses or can imagine wearing them try to focus your vision and attention on their surface instead of a distant object. Once you manage try to learn to focus on any given point in the air in front of you like if there was very clean glass (I mean like in a window) and you were trying to observe the glass rather than to watch through it. This may sound easy and for many people it is, nevertheless many people never ever come up with an idea to do this consciously.

---

1. Close your eyes.

2. Visualize a green triangle (only ~5% of the people can't visualize).

3. Visualize a red circle instead.

4. Visualize a blue square instead.

5. Choose another figure, e.g a circle, a triangle or a square of whatever a colour. But now your task is not to visualize it but catch the moment of the choice already done but no properties of the chosen object (including the shape, the colour, the name on any language, possible tactile properties or anything) imagined-perceived yet with your conscious perception-awareness-attention. This exercise may require some dedication and practice to manage with.

Do you think it's a coincidence that some of the most used and loved desktop applications lately are written in JS/HTML? import_pkt_ws_btc_deribit_v2.py Could it be that it's extremely hard to do these kind of applications in traditional GUI frameworks?
We can do both.

Put all the stations on sidings so that stopped trains do not block the main track. Trains operate point-to-point just like aircraft, with everybody getting on and off at the same time.

This means that there is little downside to adding more stops. The trip time for other stops is unaffected. There is no energy or time wasted on intermediate stops.

No. They never produced anything even vaguely similar to J2EE, NodeJS or PHP.

> these are rapidly growing exurbs that are refuge from the exorbitant land prices in the LA Basin.

What kind of country are we building where we send people to live in exurbs in a literal barren desert -- I'm not exaggerating, I was in Palmdale a few weeks ago, and it could have inspired Solzhenitsyn -- with a fast train into the city, lest the petit bourgeois of L.A. be forced to live in -ugh- townhomes? There are great reasons for infill stations, but "encouraging the growth of exurbs" are not among them. Especially not when the exurbs are to function as the servants' quarters so that we can facilitate the continued excesses of Angelenos.

If you want to help the people of California, build the train line to Ventura and then north to Bakersfield. Those places are habitable. And I believe the commoners deserve to go to the beach once in a while.
