It looks like the checking and savings accounts are brokerage accounts, so if you put money into it then you are buying securities.

I just learned that this is how Betterment's "Smart Saver" account is as well.

> Is Robinhood a bank?

No. Robinhood offers Checking & Savings through a brokerage account and it offers the Robinhood debit card in partnership with Sutton Bank.
I know plenty of people who are vegans and also compete in some form of extreme athletics (ultramarathons, triathlons, rock-climbing, etc.). It's definitely possible to be healthy and vegan at the same time. The difficulty is that being vegan requires a conscious analysis of what you are eating, and most restaurant/packaged food is not vegan.

Also, unless for some reason you are allergic to legumes, beans can be had for very cheap anywhere in the US, and if you can't afford $3 for a week's supply of spinach or bell peppers you probably can't afford housing either.
Why are you singling out Tim Cook? All world leaders (both political and corporate) that appease China are to blame.
This is nothing compared to what they serve to kids. I long for the TV days when it was safe for kids to watch public TV or PBS. Google is single handedly responsible for fast evolving humans to a time when kids are no longer safe (and there's no oversight assurance by any entity except for the parents themselves).
Ah, as a Canadian not living in a major city, I didn't know this existed.

Actually my work experience had almost nothing to do with it, as pretty much all of it was done under NDA. What really helped me was having a set of public personal projects which demonstrated competency in relevant areas (I know because I had a discussion about it with my hiring manager after I'd been working there for a couple of months - I was curious about how much the lack of a degree mattered when they were filtering candidates).
Maybe they'll introduce binary options soon.

Interesting, I didn't know about blog posts and Show HN. It is less of a blog post than an announcement of a new library though. Either way, I'm fine with the removal of the show prefix and will remember it for future posts. Thanks.
Typically, less than 5% of an article's traffic has been coming from Medium for me (that's true for unpopular articles as well as more popular ones with more than a quarter million views).

So don't give the "visibility argument" too much weight.
Right. See my comment above.

As to why it was in the project: If you treat each pixel as an example vector in 3 dimensions and cluster, you get the “dominant” colors for the image. It’s a primitive way to compress images as well. In this case I just was using it to generat fun cards that would use a minimal number of dominant colors. It’s still in the code if you’d like to use it but a bit hidden.
You can still do stuff like that today. My friend broke Yahoo and gmail. Unfortunately, we didn't document the procedure very well, so the following, from my personal notes on the incident, (with handles changed to protect my friend) is all I got:

How name_surname broke yahoo mail (and also gmail)
==================================================
- 21/03/17
> She doesn't quite remember what she did exactly but:
a) She went into nickname@yahoo.com and added another yahoo mail box-
name_surname@yahoo.com.
b) This didn't seem to work (?) so she went into name_surname@yahoo.com
and added nickname@yahoo.com as a mailbox.
c) Then she went into gmail and added nickname@yahoo.com to it
d) And finally she imported mail and contacts from both yahoo accounts
into gmail.

> The result: in nickname@yahoo.com you can see the name_surname@yahoo.com
mailbox which contains a nickname@yahoo.com mailbox, which contains an
name_surname@yahoo.com mailbox, but also nickname@yahoo.com contains a
mailbox called nickname@yahoo.com and name_surname@yahoo.com contains a
mailbox called name_surname@yahoo.com. And in gmail, all the email
imported from nickname@yahoo.com and name_surname@yahoo.com have a very
long listing of all the mailboxes in which they exist, which is the two
yahoo mailboxes repeated several times. That's _many_ times.

> Of course, when she tried to delete the mailboxes, whereas she only had
5 messages it looked like there were 35. They were all duplicates,
obviously.

It's impolite to demand personal responsibility from corporations. It was the 'United Fruit Company' that funded dictatorships, and 'Comcast' and 'Disney' that bribed for favorable net-neutrality/copyright laws, and 'Monsanto' and 'Big Pharma' that extort people by abusing and writing in their favor the drug regulatory framework.

Not any CEO or major stockholder with a name and address, goodness no.
I'm not sure it's even this complicated. They want people to use Robinhood to trade. People need to have cash in their account to do so. Rather than having to wait a day to transfer money they can incentivize you to store your money within Robinhood so that there's no friction to you making more trades.

Similar to YouInvest and Chase.
Almost always. IIRC there are some trivially small exceptions – you can make I believe 3 trades a day before being classified as PDT – and I believe entry and exit of a single position count as two separate trades.

But there are a lot of everyday people rigorously swing trading with smallish accounts. I've had some really interesting chats with uber drivers who do this, since they're sitting around in front of a phone all day anyway.
Could be interesting, but is my understanding correct, that, for a commercial project, I would have to buy a fbs, pyqt and a QT licence?

It could even come out a win at “last’s half as long” and “costs 60% of”, if a portion of the concrete buildings get abandoned or demolished before their life expectancy is up because of changed requirements.

Extreme example: many Olympic Games venues don’t need a life expectancy of decades.

That's a really great feature. I'd love to see even better window management in 10.

Lovely.
It would be better if updating didn't require a restart.
I was responding directly to:
"You could've gone to the best university in your country, but if it's not a top institution in the US or a handful of others [...] I feel like most big names in tech won't even look at your resume."

Definitely agree that it's very circumstantial.
Aw jeez, this is really depressing
Your comment is exactly the false comparisons I was talking about. Get the emotions out of the way and rationally evaluate what you just wrote.

China can not start the conflicts because the world will sanction them. Yet they did exactly that to Tibet. They killed so many, took it over and have brainwashed or arrested everyone who clings to Tibetan culture. They invaded India, did you know that? And would have killed or enslaved all of it until the US stopped it (or was it Russia). China if sole superpower would have concquered Japan, Vietnam, South Korea no doubt in my mind and likely attempted the rest of the world as well.
I also noticed it, since the implication of the setting is that the characters are speaking German, and the story teller is translating. I think it's just a bit of artistic license.

You're making drastic assumptions about the relative quantities of your variables. It's feasible that the math works out but far from guaranteed.
This times 100. Had exactly the same experiences with some long form posts on a new domain.

- reach out to people.
How bizarre that the article mentions Amazon Fresh but completely fails to mention that you can get free delivery from Whole Foods via Prime Now. I routinely order stuff from Whole Foods through Prime Now and get it just a few hours later, it's pretty awesome. I used to occasionally order Whole Foods via Instacart but haven't once since the acquisition.
The popular conception of astrology as a mechanistic and predeterministic way to evaluate someones life is trivially falsifiable. Like any mechanistic and predetermined way to evaluate someone's life.

But that's straw dogging it to the max.

The more realistic conception of astrology is as a prehistoric psychological counseling tool which cannot be falsified; some anxious panic ridden pregnant woman asks an astrologer if her newborn will be healthy or not; astrologer sees anxiety will only make the mom and soon to be newborn more unhealthy, calms mom down by explaining the baby will be fine and she can trust him because he's so smart that he knows the constellation Pisces was in the sky when she was born (in the spring, because he's old and remembers her). He knows so much about nature and biology that he can mathematically and mostly correctly even predict star positions, not bad for 10000 BC. She's like "oh wow this dude is smart, for a pre-historical dude anyway" and calms down and the lower stress hormones mean her and the baby survive delivery; holy cow astrology works? That's cut and dried example; a more modern example is nothing in medicine is 0% or 100%, and most times anything that makes the patient feel better results in a better outcome; again; astrology as an auxiliary additional side therapy in concert with modern medicine works?
"Tell us a story about how you took down production."

A reasonable question. But if you really need to reject the candidate (for instance, if you're attempting to resist, or provide cover for resisting, someone brought in e.g. by the bad kind of nepotism), no matter how much they talk about how it led them to build systems to prevent similar disasters, as an interviewer you can selectively choose to focus on the mindset that led them to break the system in the first place.

In general, though, if you're looking for ways to disqualify a candidate based on other than merit, you should examine your own biases against the candidate. Don't be evil.
If housing doesn't expand, prices would just presumably spiral upwards until waiters are paid as much as average tech workers and only the mega-rich can afford to eat out.

Google's mission statement is "to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful".

I'm sure we can all be happy if, with the help of Google, China becomes a more harmonious society, without any pesky troublemakers, and that hard-working Chinese Communist Party officials get the transplants they so deserve.
Very interesting thought. Probably enough HTML for tracking though right?
Luckily, it's no longer 2004, so no one in their right mind would start out blogging there ;)

I personally prefer Jekyll or Gatsby on GH Pages or, even better, Netlify. But if you're less technically inclined, WordPress.com is fine as long as you get a custom domain.
Well, if Trump say something about this topic on TV in the next couple of days, then I'm right. In any case, they promise to deliver a full report on that investigation in early 2019, hopefully it will be more informative. (My main point is not that the article might be politically motivated, but that its main statement is very imprecise and allows interpretations.)
I would definitely suggest it. The Judge character is just so damn interesting. I found myself in awe of him, then disgust, then at the end I didn't know how I felt.
What is your theory, that every single other financial institution has willingly taken on a bunch of expenses they don't need to?

This comment just reinforces my feeling that Robinhood's business model is to extract money from credulous customers who think they are too cool for regular banks.
Up this, I'd start from here
Or vote for someone you actually believe in even if they are not likely to win. Maybe I'm crazy but I believe voting for the lesser of two evils is just perpetuating a terrible two party system here in the USA. One way to change it is support candidates outside of the two party system even if they are unlikely to win. With enough support eventually they will be able to.
I quietly wondered, some weeks ago, when China’s “Khashoggi moment” might occur. This probably isn’t it, unless an individual story can emerge that can capture the public’s revulsion in a way that, for some reason, only an individual story can.

It took one journalist’s murder and dismemberment to finally make Mohammed Bin-Salman politically radioactive in a way that thousands of dead and starving Yemenis could not. As we continue to ignore the Uighur internment camps, and probably this as well, what will it take for Xi?
How about removing books from photos? ;)
If you are only ever adding and never refactoring, aren't you already locked in? I guess supporting one piece of technical debt is probably going to be cheaper than having to support a few legacy versions on top of the current version. However, the legacy version can at least be end-of-lifed eventually, whereas you would have to support all legacy features for the life of the product with the 'only add' method.

Sounds like a cool gig, how did you end up in the tech field?
Well, it's not like you're showing anyone how to create a Linux GUI, either (unless, you know, you count the copy-paste part :-) ).

If SEO is the goal, perhaps it's worth looking into keywords along some other directions? A lot of folks who get past the "getting started with Qt" part is going to be interested in the problem of packaging Qt applications (especially where Python is involved, which comes with its own set of difficulties).

If these are the people such an article is relevant for, I doubt "Linux GUI programming" is the kind of stuff they're googling for. After all, they already know a little about that, the problem is how to let their friends use what they wrote already. Meanwhile, people who are googling things like "how to write gui program Linux" probably need help figuring out things like signals and slots, not how to package an application that they can't even write yet.
So how many victims are there? CNN said in 2016 that there were 10k legal transplants and 60-100k actual transplants based on looking at actual volume of transplants at the largest hospitals and supposes that executed minorities compose the difference. Keep in mind that one victim could be sufficient to provide fodder for a number of operations.

Do we have actual hard numbers? The 4000 fulun gong seem insufficient for the volume reported.
Consider the possibility that turning Youtube into Google News is the goal of the people who talk like this.

The internet democratized publishing. That made a lot of people unhappy - not just because of nonsense like Q, but because it let people say they weren't too keen on Communism in China, Ben Ali in Tunisia, or Clinton/Macron-style progressivism in the West. China went and un-democratized it, and a lot of people want the same thing to happen here.

It's like how social conservatives wiped out queer communities in places like LiveJournal by targeting NSFW content - they can't come right out and say they liked it better when the only easily accessible sources of information were two local papers and three TV channels, all of which could be depended on to (for example) come out in favor of the war in Iraq, just as the social conservatives couldn't say they wanted to wipe out the fags. So they're targeting conspiracy videos instead.
But they didn't give "clearly give permission" (in the original release). Because they also said "don't be a dick about it" which is an incredibly vague restriction. Is that limited to claiming ownership of the font? Does that include using it in military applications? What about criminals?

At any rate, this point is moot since they re-licensed it under a real license by the time I responded to your comment.
Synchrony Bank, Goldman Sachs Bank, Barclays Bank, HSBC Direct pay 2.05%.

Google "high yield savings" for lists that are updated monthly.

However, this Robinhood offer is for a "checking" account, which while not actually a checking account, still offers the liquidity of one. Savings accounts have a limited number of monthly transfers you're allowed, and you can't use one with a debit card as your main payment account.
The regulatory agencies don't start with litigation. If you are unintentionally out of line they will contact you to fix it first, and if you do so in good faith that will be the end of it.
You can use PySide2 instead of PyQt. And you don't need a Qt license when just using it from Python, because Qt is licensed under the LGPL and you are allowed to link to it dynamically.

So, if putting your project under the GPL is not an option for you, then the only commercial license you need is fbs.

(Caveat: IANAL)
I guess it wouldn't be HN if we didn't tie every story back to our own issues.

In this case, if Google ever does return to China I doubt the authorities would find it more useful for such purposes than existing sources such as iCloud, Bing, and Baidu already are.
I only set up this blog for this specific article, so haven't given following much thought, but yes it does have RSS (https://bts.nomadgate.com/rss.xml). And people do still use that.

I have seen Whole Foods change from a welcoming, organized, on-trend, curated grocery store to something different. I frequent Whole Foods in the midwest and west coast. There is more homogenization, empty aisles, different employees, and different food stuffs. I can't [quantitatively] say the food quality is down per se, but the feeling of visiting and purchasing at the store is less positive than before. The only section that I didn't see massive change was in the meat department. I still see the same employees and what looks like the same meats.

I now avoid Whole Foods and go towards more speciality stores or direct competitors like Erewhon.

The algorithms aren't complex: People who watched video A and also watched video B and were very likely to comment and interact with it, therefore people watching video A should be presented with video B.

It is not making a judgement on video A or B, just that it has noticed the relation. Of course, we now all understand that the most engaging type of content on the internet is the most offensive, negative, and aggressive content. This is no different than much of what is shown on TV, where vast quantities of it are pure garbage, including much of what is shown on the "serious" news channels.

Too frequently, the people writing about this and the politicians talking about it really just want to be the ones to set the line on what is "toxic" and "offensive" and have a very strong desire to influence what Google and these other companies should censor. There's also a very strong contingent of the old guard media that wishes to be restored as gatekeeper and view this as their opportunity.
Nobody? Where I live (suburbs, New England, USA), it's pretty common to be visited in person by local political candidates and/or volunteers during campaign season. I doubt this is in any way unique to my neighborhood.
Note that there was no need to actually create an infix operator, as you can use any code as an infix operator if you surround it with `[&( )]`.

say $filter «[&( -> $l, $r { $l and $r } )]» $source

Golfing it down a bit, the shortest I was able to get was

say $filter «[&( &[and] )]» $source;

The `&[and]` references the infix `and` operator.

I think the reason the following doesn't work that way is that `and` is too thunky.

say $filter «and» $source;
say $filter «[and]» $source; # identical to previous line

(Note that `and` is supposed to be thunky, so that isn't a bug.)

---

I personally would write this:

sub infix:<l-when-r> -> $_, $r {
# note that the value to be matched with must be in $_
# prior to using the `when` keyword.
# it was done in the signature for conciseness

$_ when $r
}

Then the conditions can be code objects, regexes (which are a form of code object in Perl6), or literals. (I tried to get it to work with bare Junctions, but I was unable to get the `«»` part to pass it into the operator.)

It does mean that you have to use `True` rather than `1`.

my $filter = {
f2 => True,
f3 => *.contains('data'),
f5 => {
f6 => /data/,
},
f10 => * == (0 | 1 | 42), # only match these values
f11 => 42, # only match something equal to 42
}

say $source «l-when-r» $filter;
This would require the USA being a lot more willing to act co-operatively with other countries than its present leadership seems capable of.

China, like Russia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia - any nation that is a totalitarian state - will commit endless atrocities so long as those in power believe they can get away with it. Be it their own people or other nations.

And they do get away with it. All so I can buy a phone for 20% less that it would cost to manufacture in my own country. A few million dead, disfigured, tortured, scarred, raped. Billions living under thought control. Chump change to keep my clothes dirt cheap so the Walton family can buy a few more islands in the Caribbean while Jeff Bezos accumulates enough money to buy the moon.
