I've posted in the past and had nothing but fake call centres and phishing links posted, which eventually get removed, but I did click on some of them (in sandboxed malware-analysis browsers) and it took a lot of searching and knowledge to realise that the numbers were fake - and I work in IT secops.

Oddly enough, vaccines do seem to occasionally cause narcolepsy. So it's not unthinkable that vaccines could cause autism, but there's no particular reason to believe that. And it's likely that if they did, we'd see a similar story of "nobody ever thought of this until somebody noticed and it became blindingly obvious".

Certainly the popularity of the site is due to the large amount of full scenes that have been available. Debates about who has been uploading the full scenes have been raging for years.

The debate about who is profiting from it and who has lost sales I think is pretty easy to figure out.

This might be true in America but in Europe it is common for the CS department to have been an offshoot of the mathematics department.
That sounds a bit like the InCAS assessment[1] used in the UK and some international schools that follow the British system. In my experience, the teachers are a bit reluctant to share the results because it takes some effort to get reports out that are parent-friendly, and it takes a bit of explaining what the reports mean. But I have been able to get them upon request. Perhaps it is the same issue with SBAC tests, too much effort for the teachers to provide meaningful reports.

Exactly, for me personally, its silly to worry about this thing non-compete thing. Its a matter of risk assessment. I figure that its very unlikely to cause me trouble.
Does parallelization work on this problem? I vaguely remember you can compute nth digit of Pi (not sure in what bases though) without computing the previous ones but this doesn't mean that an efficient parallel algorithm exists.
Looks interesting. I have some questions:

(1) Where can I find a minimal code example where Stensal SDK finds a bug that could not be found with Valgrind, Sanitizers (i.e. Asan, UBSan) nor with MSVC debug mode?

(2) From the Get Started guide it looks like Stensal SDK is a custom compiler. If this is correct: which versions of C++ does it support? Does it fully support C++17? Is it based on another compiler (GCC/Clang)?

(3) As your pricing seems to be on a 'per user'-basis, does the CI server count as a single user?

(4) What is the observed slowdown in real-world applications? Or benchmarks like these: https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerPe...
> As somebody else said, it's more important to find out what real people ended up paying for a procedure after it was all said and done.

Is there a bill-sharing website to cure this information from people voluntarily? Maybe someone on HN would want to start one up? Or would people be too reluctant to share details of procedures?
Yes, I do have a problem with capitalism and consumerism, because they are at the root of our increasing mistreatment of the world we live in.

The entire focus on economics as the only way to run the world is crazy. Money and economics are nothing but abstract concepts invented by humans, they're not some sort of natural universal truth.

We cannot consume nor bargain ourselves out of this problem, the solution will not be market-based. We need an entirely different paradigm, to use a hackneyed term. One that revolves around cooperation, rather than competition.

China has been "communist" in name only for decades, and you will note that their emissions increased sharply when they started adopted western capitalist ideas and let the market economy take over. Partylr because we started exporting our dirtiest industries to them.

Have you read the IPCC report? You really should, it's a rather sobering read. It gives us 12 years to reverse our doomed course. 12 years.

https://cleantechnica.com/2018/10/09/ipcc-6-climate-change-r...

And then consider that the IPCC is even considered optimistic by some environmentalists, ostensibly written that way to not rock the boat too much and cause panic.

I am not joking. It is that serious. So we can either act and try to change the world, or we can go about our business as usual and cause our own extinction.

In other words, the planet isn't dying, it's being killed.

But please, explain which solution you think could solve or at least halt the problem within 12 years?

I think you should save this little exchange, and revisit it in 10 or 20 years, and consider what we could have done, but didn't do, because it was "too extreme".

Creating a stack that complex just to render Static Content... Seriously ?

Do each Airbnb engineer create their own stack for a tiny part of the website ?

> Nowadays, why does it matter if a website is made "brittle" if the content isn't going to matter in a few months anyways?

One reason is brand perception. If your website is significantly slower and/or brokener than a competitor's then eventually people will stop coming back. Presumably you want your brand to last more than a few months.
I can see that argument... the same could be said about learning jsx as a layer on top of native js.. Before spa’s it was just interpolated strings rendered on the server.. people probably thought the same thing when rendering a string of html inside their python/ruby/java program. My take is if it gets the done and the team agrees, use whatever tool works! In ember-land, single file components are in the pipeline I believe, will be interesting to see if they end up supporting jsx too.

This seems to me like a sincere and uplifting post; why was it downvoted?
We can start by patriating children from parents who believe their children should be pushed into homosexuality or who hold beliefs that their political umbrage with vaxxers or any other group gives them the right to decide who gets to keep their children. See that? Your walking on muddy ground and the idea that the people who self appoint as the ones who get to decide what is and isn't politically correct should also be the ones to decide if people can keep their families is a disgusting dangerous idea. Luckily it goes both ways, so tread carefully.

Before this thread gets too negative, I would like to point out a positive example of intellectual humility: Kahneman's retraction of a chapter of Thinking Fast and Slow [1]. In it, Kahneman acknowledges the basic points of of the Retraction Watch article, explains his mistake, and says specifically what parts of his worldview have changed as a result of the new evidence that he's been faced with. He clearly says that, although he still thinks that priming is real, he has significantly more doubts now about the generality and replicability of priming research, now that study after study has failed to find the effects of priming when attempting to reproduce famous results. He even says that he had the information to come to the same conclusions as the blog, but failed to do so because of his own biases.

Totally agree. There’s simply too much bauhausinspired architecture out there, so now it looks unimaginative and dull.
From the paper you linked to:

> Our results are also limited by the lack of diversity of our respondents, who did not include many black/African Americans, Asian, American Indian, or Alaska Native Americans

> The results from the parent/guardian respondents (published separately) also showed that their median gross household income of $100,000 was significantly higher than the national median gross household income of $49,777

So, they surveyed people from affluent, white, American families - I suspect the numbers from this group would be rather high regardless of DS.

> It certainly seems like a reasonable and innocent bit of cheer for a doctor to offer to a new dad

I get where you're coming from with this, I do - the doctor wanted to offer some comfort to the father; but positive stereotypes are not helpful, and a doctor should know better. IMO, the doctor should have educated, rather than patronised (however well-meant) - for example, he could have explained how incredibly better outcomes are for those with DS nowadays.

I think a comparison of this type of view to the 'casual racism' of the 70's is valid, where people think it's OK to think and say these kind of things, not necessarily out of malice, but simply out of ignorance.

Have you read Plato's "Republic"? He had some ideas along your lines. Copied here from a dubious online summary:

"""

In the first of several radical claims that he makes in this section Socrates declares that females will be reared and trained alongside males, receiving the same education and taking on the same political roles. Though he acknowledges that in many respects men and women have different natures, he believes that in the relevant respect—the division among appetitive, spirited, and rational people—women fall along the same natural lines as men. Some are naturally appetitive, some naturally spirited, and some naturally rational. The ideal city will treat and make use of them as such.

Socrates then discusses the requirement that all spouses and children be held in common. For guardians, sexual intercourse will only take place during certain fixed times of year, designated as festivals. Males and females will be made husband and wife at these festivals for roughly the duration of sexual intercourse. The pairings will be determined by lot. Some of these people, those who are most admirable and thus whom we most wish to reproduce, might have up to four or five spouses in a single one of these festivals. All the children produced by these mating festivals will be taken from their parents and reared together, so that no one knows which children descend from which adults. At no other time in the year is sex permitted. If guardians have sex at an undesignated time and a child results, the understanding is that this child must be killed.

To avoid rampant unintentional incest, guardians must consider every child born between seven and ten months after their copulation as their own. These children, in turn, must consider that same group of adults as their parents, and each other as brothers and sisters. Sexual relations between these groups is forbidden.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Warriors_(film)

The Warriors is a 1979 American crime film directed by Walter Hill and based on Sol Yurick's 1965 novel of the same name. This novel was, in turn, based on Xenophon's Anabasis. The story centers on a New York City gang who must make an urban journey of 30 miles (48 km), from the north end of The Bronx to their home turf in Coney Island in southern Brooklyn, after they are framed for the murder of a respected gang leader. It was released in the United States on February 9, 1979.

A cult classic. The central theme is, indeed, similar- the guy who has summoned the Warriors is killed and they must make their way back home through hostile territory. It never occurred to me.

> almost everyone I talked to in private admitted that they expect an economic crash in the near future

That is currently the same in every country I talked to citizens. Not a very good way of measuring.

Your observations about China might very well be correct, but this is not an interesting point imho. When I speak to my friends in China they worry about the economy but they do actually believe their country is going in the right direction generally. Ofcourse my sample of the populous is limited: I speak to tech people only, but they do not care about the things you or I think they care or should care about. They are content with the way it is going.

That's a possible partial fix, but I recall plenty of classes in high school and college that had a weighted grading scale.

Done every homework assignment and aced every test all semester but then bomb the midterm or final? You're still in trouble. Also vice versa - if you didn't do any homework all year, but the midterm is going to be worth 90% of your grade anyway. And of course we all know there are teachers that are just notoriously harder than anyone else where no one is going to get an A in the class, so there's also an aspect of how well other people have done on the assignment/in the class as a whole.

None of that is new at all, though. The problem is that technology has now calculated out a number and displayed it and we as humans add more importance to that hard number. To me it's similar to the whole "fake news" thing - we're too inclined to glance at what the app on our phone says and not think any further.

+1 for iwantmyname - such a simple service - does exactly what I want without any fuss
Not to mention that in several cases, the managed service is run with Windows Server (think managed .asp hosting, or using a Windows-only middleware). So you have to tack on the extra resources for a Windows machine and the license costs.

Funny story (but not the ah-ah funny kind): such a service (hosting different customers on the same Windows machine) was still running in my previous company as of 4-5 years ago. They had long moved from physical hosts to VM, but were stuck with the legacy CMS/control panel which was more or less unpatchable (as in, the software editor didn’t exist anymore). About once a week, one of the host VMs would be taken over by hackers using one exploit or another. In that case they would kill the VM, boot a fresh one from a clean image, and start serving the customer data again after making sure it was clean. The service was not sold anymore but they had long-running customer contracts. It wasn’t making enough money to justify rebuilding it with modern software, but it was making enough that simply killing it wasn’t an option.

>"You might suppose a great mathematician such as Kolmogorov would be writing about some very complicated piece of mathematics, but his subject was the humble equals sign: what made it a good piece of notation, and what its deficiencies were. Kolmogorov discussed this in loving detail, and made many beautiful points along the way, e.g., that the invention of the equals sign helped make possible notions such as equations (and algebraic manipulations of equations).

(I found Kolmogorov’s essay in my University library as a teenager. I’ve unsuccessfully tried to track it down several times in the intervening years. If anyone can identify the essay, I’d appreciate it. I’ve put enough effort into tracking it down that I must admit I’ve sometimes wondered if I imagined the essay. If so, I have no idea where the above story comes from.)"
