This is much more likely IMO. The public benefit of different pieces of information can vary greatly, with most probably approaching zero. Even if the child-fleecing stuff was the most harmful of anything to FB, it's still reasonable that other things are not beneficial enough to release even if they likely are not as damaging.
wow, is possible that they find a complete frozen animal? Maybe with perfect DNA samples! That would be very cool.
The “random repos” shown in Github’s various Explore/Suggestion interfaces bias towards repos with higher star counts / repos followed by people you follow / that are similar to ones you already follow.

I’ve found plenty of interesting repos from the suggestions. Whether their creator was looking to “showcase” them or not isn’t directly material to me: I’m looking for inspiration, or examples, or just to see what other folks are up to. The suggestions are a useful window into those categories.

>usually, wealth is either spent on luxury items (so the money goes back into the economy) or it is invested (funding economic growth).

These are things that don't scale however. A CEO does not eat a thousand meals a day, or buy a thousand cars a year, or do any of the infinite number of things that circulate money into the economy on the scale of an equal number of poor people
Thanks for the informative response.

>> To address some of the comments about use cases: we have a grid of items we want to filter based on a user’s search query.

Isn't that what XSLT is good for to some extent? I guess nobody seems to use it but it can do things like treat selected items differently. Using animation features to hide rows in a grid feels like the wrong solution to me.
The future of the grocery business is web based ordering and automated delivery to the buyer. Amazon will crush other grocers due to first mover advantage and their massive technology workforce.
How do we know this isn't hearsay? Or completely fabricated by the OP?

This is no different than the stuff that gets posted to sites like 4chan daily.
The hard but maximally useful thing to do, in my opinion, is to regularly meet with at least two other people and a blackboard and beat your heads against it together for about 3 hours at a stretch. Do this at least weekly--and preferably more often. Self study in between meetings is obligatory.

One of those people should be at about your level. The other should be farther along.

All three of you should trust each other enough that nobody gets caught in a shame/guilt/ego loop.
So 40% admit that they would save their own dog over a foreign tourist, when asked.

Look at any undergraduate course curriculum at your university of choice and just follow that. Some of them might even have lecture notes and exercises published.

As a maths undergraduate, I attended around 10 classes per year - you go see who the instructor is and then just read the lecture notes at your own time at home. Then go take the exam at the end and that's it. That sums up my 3 years of undergraduate studies.

Mathematics is well established, essentially has been frozen at undergraduate level for 50 or more years, so there is plenty of material. Also, you don't need any equipment, just your own mind.

In my opinion, it is the easiest major of all if you can follow the logic. No essays to write and no projects to do - just read the material.
hehe , yeah. i mean it's cool but this was basically, "Pi is a server and you can run software on servers". I was hoping for something that used some extra electrical components and circuitry to accomplish something more then just running software.

I'd actually argue it's easy to get set up on the cloud hosted versions of this stuff! sure it helps to roll your own everything (git, jira, IDE...) and i appreciate the work and write up. Plus those rpi's do look pretty fuckin sweet, it makes my nerd senses tingle

Your mistake is in assuming vet bills constitute actual damages. In US law, dogs are simple property. If you wreck your car and it costs more to fix the car and replace it, the insurance doesn't pay to fix it -- they pay to replace it. Liability is whichever value is LESS.

Dogs work the same way under the law. If someone injures your dog, they are liable to either pay 1) to fix the dog or 2) replace the dog, whichever is less.
> You're overselling linux but underselling macOS.

I use both platforms daily and while I agree that macOS has more 'polish' in terms of being more uniform, I don't think am overselling that there are many tools on Linux for which I have to pay on macOS to get similar capabilities.

> You're conflating expectations. A vast majority of people are using the file manager for basic stuff.

Right and there are many basic file managers for Linux too, but there are also advanced ones that you don't have to pay for, which was my point.

> Finder is reasonable.

Agree to disagree.

> I see plenty of developers on mac or developing for mac using it to contribute to open source projects. Just because it's not translating into free and open source consumer-facing projects on macOS does not imply that devs do not care about open source.

Perhaps I worded this poorly, but I meant macOS developers as in Swift/ObjC/Cocoa, not developers in general who happen to be using a Mac. So yes, I meant those developing customer-facing software specific to the platform, not say webdevs on a Mac. There's many open-source libraries sure, but that's because of convenience. When it comes to customer-facing apps, it is nowhere near Linux level and given the many more devs on the platform that speaks for something.

> From what I've seen, people on macOS are mostly paying for software like BetterTouchTool, Alfred, Keyboard Maestro, Hazel, Carbon Copy Cloner, Ulysses.

Right, and my point is that on Linux utilities akin to BetterSnapTool, Alfred, Keyboard Maestro tend to be free software and not particularly worse in terms of polish.

I see some convenience value in a tool like Ulysses, even if Org-mode could be used to achieve similar results, I don't see the value in utilities like BetterSnapTool and PDF Expert, since there's no extra polish that's not available on Linux as free software.
Tesla is effectively a battery company with an automobile division.

The applicability of Tesla’s batteries beyond automobiles (such as grid-level storage in South Australia) justifies the high valuation.

Looking at Tesla purely as a car company misses much of the bigger picture.

Part of Feynman's research into the Challenger disaster was finding out how such high numbers at the top level could co-exist with much lower and more realistic reliability estimate by the engineers working on the project.

Better question: Can C++ be fast? Yes. But depending on the skill -- or lack thereof -- of the developer it can be dreadfully slow. Besides, speed isn't the best metric for judging a language. In the late 90s there was a joke among Windows desktop developers: Which is faster, C++ or VB6? The answer was "VB6, by six months" and there was a ton of truth to that statement (and by the time the C++ version would have been done the parts of the VB desktop app that had performance issues could have been identified and the logic replaced with C++ COM Objects).

The language is just a tool; USE the tool, don't be a tool.
The Navy is still centered around too many overly expensive to build and maintain carrier groups. They had their glory days but tactics pretty force them into only being useful against smaller opponents. They do sure look pretty. Part of this inter service rivalry but part is just its too hard to give up what you are used too. However there was both traction in moving away from that[1] and the old guard coming back for more[2].

They are expensive to put together, twenty billion to thirty billion per task force and hundreds of millions per year just in crew salaries to run.

How do you define "suffering"? From the story I don't see anything for what I would use such a strong word. Psychologically, some sort of "specialness" (and author tells us it's both bad, and good for a kid) is typical for many conditions which nobody would even call a disease, such as congenital poor eyesight. Physically, diabetes, or just a cosmetic defect which requires a series of operations could be way more challenging. Don't you think your reaction is just because this particular case is super rare, and scary for its unusualness?
Nice! The live-updating reactive stuff is magic!

> The government should make a law...

King Canute should just decree that the tide is to go out.~

No matter how you structure the law, the capacity of property speculators to evade its intent will likely exceed the government's ability to enforce it, especially when some of those speculators are government officials.

I foresee that a vacancy tax would be avoided by building apartment buildings that are only 80% finished, or whatever the law threshold may be, such that they do not qualify as vacant housing units, but can still be brought onto the housing market more quickly than erecting a new building from the foundations.
Tesla cuts 7% of its workforce, and Elon Musk sees a 'very difficult' road ahead
I think you just read everything there is to read about this. To my understanding, the idea that our universe is actually inside a black hole is not a “theory” in the sense that, say, relativity is a theory. It’s pure conjecture, and essentially not falsifiable. It’s more akin to the “theory” that our universe is a computer simulation.
This plays into the density of towers. 5G has a very limited range unlike 4G. It's going to take years (if not decades) to get to a place where 5G can cover the entirety of the US.
Super interesting to see the 1973 issue featured a database of concentrations of power. From what I can tell, successive projects like Sunlight Foundation came on with such vigour, but these projects have such little mainstream impact, instead all these tools get turned against individuals.
True enough, I imagine it would help for kids in the neighborhood to be introduced to each other first.
That is significantly different than having People without drivers licenses driving (a criminal offense in most jurisdictions) the taxis and fraudulently misreprenting the drivers to the public (again typically a criminal offense).

There would be nothing wrong with having two uber drivers with two legitimate uber accounts splitting the car...not allowing an unlicensed person driver for uber under someone else’s account.

It doesn't enable operators to install a large number of micro-cells, it requires it. And this is where I think 5G may end up being disappointing.

I think telcos will encounter increased resistance to putting up millions of microcells, and the cost will end up being way higher than they anticipate. So coverage in the mm bands will end up being extremely spotty (way worse than 4G now), and may end up being a near-bust.

That's my .02 anyway. But I live in a suburban-ish place where 4G coverage is mostly a cruel joke, despite being just across the Golden Gate Bridge from 4G-ground-zero SF.
Enid Blytons’s books are still so successful that in Germany, the publishers decided to have other authors continue her stories, and so far they’re still continuing and publishing new books, recording new audio books, and even filming new movies to this day. With unbroken popularity.

"The Twins at St. Clare's", in Germany known as "Hanni und Nanni" is so popular, the movies in 2010, 2012 and 2013 were some of the most popular German movies at the time, and the reboot in 2017 also was extremely popular.

And even in Britain, another author continued the "Twins at St. Clare’s" book series into the 2000s.

So, if Rowling does equally well, and her works are also continued by other authors after her death, we’ll have decades of new Potter movies and books ahead of us. The Fantastic Beasts trilogy is already a taste of what’s to come.

This blog post is negative, unimaginative, and misinformed. One major factual error is the author's understanding of fixed 5G service, which is already offered by Verizon using what they call 5G TF (Technical Forum). They will be able to upgrade all related hardware for 5G NR (New Radio) once the standard has been set in stone.

Cars being able to get new information within milliseconds about things that happened distant from it, but on its course, will be useful.

AR outside the home could be incredibly useful, if provided with low latency and high bandwidth over 5G.

I've been receiving similar emails for a long time (probably more than a year) with my old Linkedin account password that was part of the 2012 breach. I don't even have a LinkedIn account anymore and I know that I haven't used the password anywhere else since it was randomly generated for that website by my password manager.

So I can confirm that scammers seem to leverage password dumps that way. It's quite clever I suppose, if I used the same password everywhere (as many people seem to do) I'd definitely be worried.

I think the idea would be to have the vehicle detect that its out of its operating spec, and park until either

a) situation returns to within operating spec
b) remote control comes through

The remote control aspect would be severely limited and intended only to get the vehicle back to a situation within its operating spec. This trades the very difficult problems 'need to immediately control the vehicle in a safe manner' and 'what happens if a remote control is lost' into the difficult problems 'how do I detect I'm out of operating spec' and 'how do I park safely when I'm out of spec, especially if I've just lost remote control'

New or niche languages always have their projects advertising their implementation language as a point of interest, basically as marketing for that language. You'll rarely see "In C" or "In Python" because those are just known-popular choices. (Not never of course, but rarely.) By contrast, I bet we're going to see a lot of "In Nim" in the next year.

Go's actually on the tail end of that right now; I've seen a number of things posted to HN that are just implemented in Go without saying so. Of course if you don't click through and look, you won't notice. :) But at this point, if I click through to a GitHub of some project and it's in Go, it's only mild surprise at best; it is most of the way to being just one of the default choices.

There's an even earlier version of this phase, which is when all the projects include the language in the name of the project, i.e., "gosql", "gobrowser", "punwithgo", etc. Go's been out of that one for long enough that I think it's kinda off when a new library has "go" in it unless there's a really good reason (for instance, development tools that really are about Go specifically and not just implemented in Go).
