I think the author is confused about how Medium works.

> My experience is that Medium charges only for access to "premium" articles, submitted through their partner program, no?

After reading through Medium's FAQ, I believe that's right - an article is free to read unless it's published through Medium's partner program [0]. So if you want your posts to be free to read, just don't join the partner program.

The department that does that is shut down.
You'll ultimately become a better dev (e.g. higher quality code, faster, and more maintainable) as you learn more of the underlying stuff. For web dev definitely learn how to do everything in "vanilla" js, html, and css at least a few times.
It borders on impossible to quantify because you have the first order effects of government workers not being paid but then you also have a much larger number of contract workers and obligations that may or may not be able to continue depending on how the funding for their contract happens and the location the work is performed.

Beyond that you have all the second order effects like landlords and lenders not getting paid on time which starts to become a problem around 2-3 weeks in when the first pay day is missed.
Smart phones don't transmit voice data back to third parties, nor do they transmit photos taken in the native camera apps, so it is different
Arguably the reason that generations of STEM students have been horribly confused about 3-dimensional vectors and rotations (including electric/magnetic fields), etc. is that they were reframed in the confused and non-generalizable Gibbs/Heaviside language, instead of in Grassmann/Clifford’s formalism in which vectors and bivectors can be properly described as separate types of objects.

It can be so much nicer. http://geocalc.clas.asu.edu/pdf/OerstedMedalLecture.pdf

I didn't assume a particular mathematical background for the students, so I introduced the relevant math in what I hope was a motivated way. Hopefully it can help others as well.

ATM packets (cells?) are fixed size, but you can fragment higher level protocols across them. It's not common to run IP level fragmentation down to ATM sizes.

In case you're wondering what a service mesh is, this seems to be one explainer: https://istio.io/docs/concepts/what-is-istio/

Things that this seems to do are application level end-to-end authorization / authentication, load balancing, monitoring, etc.

Not sure if it does service discovery or you'll still need something else for that.
> only abstraction is a linked list

What language are you referencing here?
I'm afraid you've misunderstood. I'm saying that when you see shit happening and do these things to make improvements, you [unwittingly] train the management stack that this is how they get improvements: by sending the shit downhill.
I would also note that empathy has shown to be weaponizable - i.e. you can use empathy to some people to justify oppression of others and dehumanize them. My observations in American politics today is that this is largely what the political debate has devolved into - you find some cause that sufficiently many people empathize with, you dress it up, and you use that to drive your agenda. I think it's no surprise that the causes that tend to be among the most partisan (and the most reliable when it comes to turning out supporters and votes) are basically moral panics, like abortion on the right, or guns on the left.
DSL compilers with separate parsers, assemblers and tooling are emphatically not simpler than an EDSL.

The rest of your post seems unrelated to anything I've mentioned. Clearly you and I are talking about completely different things. I again suggest you read the link I provided, but it doesn't seem fruitful to continue this thread any further.
Everything you say is not new to lisp though.

with schizophrenic you mean a system of coupled differential equations? in that case I wouldn't agree with schizophrenic.

or are you referring to the fact that mathematically speaking the system of differential equations is indeterministic due to mathematically perfectly valid advanced potentials? in this case I agree that there may be much more to learn from the Maxwell equations, and I have no qualms with naming this feature (highly) schizophrenic.
> not yet proved useful or valuable to working engineers

The people who value it are those who must deal concretely with the details of the model on a daily basis: computer programmers working in graphics, computer vision, robotics, physical simulation, ...

It doesn’t do all that much for many pure mathematicians who are happy to hand-wave away the fine details content with the knowledge that the languages can be proven equivalent by someone else, just like it doesn’t do much for the type of engineers who just use someone else’s software for their work.

Of course, the current mess is a major point of pain/confusion for the generations of undergraduates studying vector calculus. But they should go through the same hazing ritual the rest of us did, right? It’s only fair.

Show HN: Yet Another Vim as a Python IDE
Hah! Well let’s do an experiment. I’m going to give what I think is the point of view of your typical right winger and your typical centrist democrat, and then hopefully someone can educate me as to where I’m wrong. To be clear I’m going to go for the basic profile here. Nuance is for cowards.

Conservatives: I was born in 1948. When I was a young adult, everyone was ok and everything made sense. There was an order to things, everyone had a place. Our great enemy was communism; we had capitalism and were free, while our enemies were communists and lived under dictatorship. I was afraid of communism because communists almost blew up the world, plus we fought them in Vietnam. Communists are bad people and therefore their ideas are bad ideas. I suspect that all liberals are either explicitly communist or are being misled by communist appeals to emotionalism. What we need is a strong rational person who will take charge and root out the people who are getting out of place and ruining things for everyone else.

Centrist liberal: I was born in 1972. When I was a young adult, politics were civil and everyone was polite. I never really paid attention to politics because I thought it was boring. I like my job and I think my boss is a great guy. My favorite political figure was Martin Luther king, because he said that everyone should be nice and get along. I’m not racist, because I like Martin Luther king. I don’t understand why everyone seems so angry these days. Technology is so amazing these days, it’s just going faster and faster. I love buying new fancy things. I think that if we could just elect more democrats to congress, then everyone will be nice again and stop being so nasty to each other.

How’s my empathy? Am I close? I would love it if someone would give a similar treatment to the anarchist/socialist point of view, just so I can see what kinds of silly things people believe about me. Turnabout is fair play. Let me have it.
Ask HN: Are any ML researchers supported by the community?
I was thinking of doing some independent ML research, and contributing to open source, but I wanted to know if anyone has been supported through platforms like Patreon. I know folks in the web dev community have successfully done so
It was originally not a terrible idea. You can be a poor family owning a cheap home, and rising property values can push up your property taxes to the point where you suddenly can't afford to stay in your own house.

Sure they could sell the now very valuable home and downgrade, but I find it inhumane to force someone out to "downgrade" from a home they already own.
Audience Overload
It's the "silver bullet mentality" at play. As the article itself notes, behavioural issues are notoriously difficult to tackle. The notion that an app or a website or some IOT device is going to succeed where actual interventions by flesh and blood humans fail is ludicrous. Still, the venture capital spigots will remain open because a sucker is born every minute.
Which of our major food-crops can handle Pliocene and Eocene climates?
You could be right. An estimated 180 million flew through Texas this year, twice as many as last year due to good weather up north. There were some efforts to make Austin a rest stop by planting milk weed in parklands. Anecdotally, saw big migrating swarms when driving on 290 on my way towards Junction.
> A speech impediment which is cute in a small kid but weird in middle school and socially+career-limiting in an adult.

Amusingly enough, I had such a thing in elementary and middle school: I couldn't pronounce "r" or "l", but was convinced I was pronouncing them fine. (No one showed me a recording of my speech.) I was sent to speech therapy and learned some alternate way of pronouncing "r", which I almost never carried out because it wasn't what I'd originally learned and seemed weird and wrong.

Eventually, I had a dental appliance (a "butterfly expander") removed from my mouth, and I resumed correct pronunciation of "r" and "l" sounds immediately (while still in the dentist's office, I think). The expander sat just below the roof of my mouth, blocking a certain range of my tongue's movement that is indeed involved in making "r" and "l" sounds.

I wonder if the speech therapists knew about such things.
I think the Sequences abstraction[1] is a pretty important one. I'm not sure it's unique to Clojure though, I have no other practical Lisp experience.

It looks like this highlights code within <pre><code> blocks with a color scheme appropriate for the language, but it can't actually detect whether a snippet is code in the first place.

This is good to know about, although I personally care more about just displaying code blocks in a different typeface than I do about highlighting them appropriately.
The underlying issue is that many novice users don't see the problem with being condescended to, even when this severely inconveniences the more "developer-like" power users we used to enable. That "wedge" is just what the Eternal September of personal computing looks like.
What's this have that Signal doesn't?
Agreed. It is so easy to assume the worst from anyone - especially on the internet. It helps me, personally, to reread through someone's words and try to grasp what they are saying as strongly as possible before reacting.
It definitely feels like the bloggers on Medium are considerably more self-indulgent and considerably less intelligent.

If FreeBSD had received a fraction of the resources Linux has received over the last decades, it would have its own share of scars left by the growing pains.

For years FreeBSD development was very stagnant while Linux exploded in popularity and support. The comparison is silly.

I actually prefer a date-based approach to release naming. Given continuous flow of kernel development, I would advocate for releasing a major every year, a minor every month, and patches as needed. Gives you better indication of how much behind you are by just looking at the version.
I’ve set up a few single device “groups” in the Alexa app to serve as aliases. This has helped quite a bit.
Yes, I often think of how many note taking and bookmarking services have come and gone in the last 14 years :)

By sticking to a simple wiki that uses plain text, HTML, and HTTP, you avoid a lot of churn, and can concentrate on the real goal, which is organizing and retaining knowledge.

It started as a CGI script, migrated to a server I can no longer recall, then to my own web server (an experiment), and is now a WSGI app in Python running on gunicorn, behind Nginx.

It also started using flat files like pwyky, but now it uses sqlite.

All the data was undisturbed throughout those technology changes, which is the important part.
The finance industry mainly uses OFX as the standard for online access to statements/transaction downloads (as does quicken, QuickBooks and gnucash...etc). Some banks do not support it and others go through aggregators to provide access.

You are doing people a huge disservice by identifying the companies you listed as "the finance industry". They are scraping data (in most cases against TOS) and exposing it as a paid API service.

It's a terrible state of affairs that easy access to ownership of this critical data is so hard to come by and has essentially forced people to give up their most valuable credentials to in a lot of cases unknown or untrustworthy parties.

At least mint has partnered with some banks that actually provide supported APIs for transaction data (Chase), but that is so far from the norm right now it makes me queasy.
Not a specialist in those things. Dont know functional programming. I do meta research to find opportunities for specialists to improve their work or create interesting work in the first place.
> Meanwhile, our relationship grew more acrimonious. He clearly no longer trusted me and this was beginning to poison all our interactions.

#$@#%?!??!

What the hell is wrong with this person? It's hand-licking. The child isn't sticking forks in outlets or punching teachers. Laugh at it if you can't figure it out and get on with your lives.

> I was a young homemaker, financially dependent on my husband, and I was feeling enormously pressured by both of these people. I also felt they both had real careers and didn't genuinely respect me. They both felt it was my job and mine alone to somehow make my son stop licking his hands entirely.

This also sits really weirdly with me. Doesn't matter who's working and who isn't: The child has two parents. Parenting is a collaboration. (If you feel disrespected as the non-working parent, that's something to be worked out between you and your partner, not your child.)
Any reason you choose :)

From the OP email:

Because the the best jobs are in SF, so scratching SF off of your list if you're in particular industries is too large of a sacrifice.

The problem with NIMBYism isn't saying no to building more homes per se, it is saying no to more homes while saying yes to more jobs and more commerce that creates the problem.

Someone who works in SF, but lives 40 minutes away due to cost, should be considered a constituent of SF and their voice is as valid as that of a resident.
$72 a year is a lot of money. [1]

The thing that made Medium special was that anyone could post about something that mattered to them and get noticed no matter their background.

WordPress, Blogger, and other free things cost energy in place of money because they're top-heavy with features and weak accessibility. That's as much a blocker as a recurring charge.

[1] "But it's $70 if you pay the full year!"

That's not much of a deal for someone who's already wary about trusting a company with a direct line to cause a cascade of overdraft feeds.
Is there a shortcut to create a new folder? It seems really difficult, or I am just missing it?
A lot of the closure creation costs can be eliminated by writing the library in a continuation-passing style, which shoves all of the data into proper arguments, bypassing the need for the closure. Of course, the user of the library is still likely to generate closures.

The implementation of this I'm most familiar with is OCaml's angstrom library.
You work for the team. You are there to remove obstacles, make sure everybody knows what the objective is etc. You are not there to take away developer time with meeting after meeting. The more you can stay out of the way, and take care of external (to the team) obstacles, the better.

I don't disagree at all on this, just noting that they aren't immune from price distortions caused by devaluing currency. In fact, I would say they are probably more exposed to them especially as wealth gaps increase.
Games have decidedly not stayed the same for me. Even if we don't include industry trends of microtransactions and dlc there have been major changes. Just to name a few:

* Shooters are more multiplayer focused now by a large margin

* Ubisoft style open world games have become a huge trend

* The RTS genre rarely sees entries anymore

* Space Fighter games are less common these days by a lot as well
Thanks. This seems to be the best platform.
That’s a good question— maybe people just need to have a disclaimer on their front door that conversations may be monitored!
In fact, he was gone six months out of the year the entire time we were in Kansas. It was the worst duty station in that regard in roughly two decades as a military family.

I think the main flaw is thinking that there is some "typical" person from each group.

But you are close enough to write a few tertiary characters for an Oscar-winning picture. (Though not a main character; those usually develop throughout the movie and don't fit a static description.)
If a three letter agency is interested in you then you would be lucky if your Alexa is the best bugging device they have.
Depending on what exactly you mean by "hand it a block of memory to manage", you can do this with jemalloc's extent hook functionality. Though that's meant for "I have some long-lived data structures, I want all their memory stored on hugepages" more than "I have this small-ish data structure, I want to batch its allocations together".
Well, i was waiting for some starting graphics programming guide.
I’d settle for the seemingly vastly simpler simple task of producing an app that doesn’t show me content that I can’t consume.

I’m an Amazon Prime video subscriber currently located outside the US and the Prime Video app on Android, Roku, and PC, insists on listing all content, rather than what I am actually permitted to watch where I’m located.

90% of the titles shown subsequently show a “This title isn’t available in your region” once you actually click on it and bring up the summary page.

It’s truly absurd that one needs to click through every single video one at a time to determine what is actually watchable. Netflix has no such issue and filters based on location.
$72 a year is not a lot of money. If you got a $1.00 coffee every other day from McDonald's it would be twice that.

The main reason why the web is such a sight for sore eyes in 2019 is that people seem to think $72 a year is a lot for having a voice. People can find 10x that for a new iPhone or spend that much on beer in a month or on a cable subscription but having a blog sure can't be worth much to most people.

For one thing, how much do they think their time is worth? That is 10 hours of time spent writing at around minimum wage in the U.S.

I don't get it. On the other hand, I don't understand how grandmothers spend $5 on acrylic yarn when they could spend $10 to make a (better) wool scarf that they'll spend 20 hours knitting. (e.g. the wool scarf will protect you in a fire, the acrylic scarf will melt, burn you, and produce toxic fumes.)
Would people affected in the flow-on effects (such as landlords etc) be in any position to claim compensation due to the governments actions via a court? Or is there some form of legislation that protects the government from litigation in this sort of instance?

What is the range of evolutionary adaptive capacity, though? Life has survived everything that has been thrown at it in several billion years. We just don't know what it would take to wipe it all. So I don't think the authors were talking about the complete end of life. They were just saying that we're going towards a phase of mass extinction, and that is not much controversial.
