Apparently they only use this data for simple question and answer queries, because they do not disclose breakdown of query types i can not certainly know the numbers, and i made an optimistic guess. Also i don't think my points regarding building a real search engine were unfair. Do you disagree with any of these? I express cynicism because of lack on transparency on their side.
Impatient product owner
It's been a while now admittedly for me with Linux, but for me it was like, AMD was always trying to halfheartedly support open source, their proprietary drivers fast but buggy and hard to install. The open source driver slow and stable.

Nvidia made no pretense, you downloaded a thin open source shim, typed "make" and then it worked and was fast. And 99.9% proprietary blob.
It won't work with Netflix's model. The flat rate pay x and watch as much as you want doesn't work for the producers, the prices they can negotiate for their content are always capped based on the fixed subscription at netflix. Given that it's much more appealing for them to launch their own service and get 100% of a smaller customer base which they can potentially grow in the future.

The US Naval Academy alone graduates 1000 people a year. Where do they all go? What do they all do?

In the Star Trek reboot Kirk goes straight from Academy sophomore to commanding a capital ship in a matter of days.

It is not like that. It takes many years. Only a small percentage of Academy graduates will ever get there. And many have no ambition to either, there are lots of other challenging and prestigious jobs in the Navy. You could be a fighter pilot or a SEAL platoon commander, neither of those career paths leads to commanding a destroyer.
Which is why the best shows Netflix has tend to be full fledged pitches that they acquired. Compare "Great News" to "The Kominsky Method" or that utterly-unwatchable-beyond-the-second-episode Australian dystopian political show with the Polish dystopian political show "1983".

Oh - thanks for noting! SF Mono looks pretty cool, I missed it somehow (is it available on 10.12?). I guess I'll have to dig it out of Terminal.app now to try it out.
It is not Electron, it's native. The reason it's heavy because it contains the database drivers, some of them is hundreds of MBs (Oracle > 200MB).
Key point is towards the end:

"As a result of the above, we unfortunately have no choice but to reduce full-time employee headcount by approximately 7%"
whoops 202 Accepted :D
Knew from the start that there were some cuts coming, but then it was really hopeful until the 7% figure dropped.

I wish people laid off good luck.

I used and loved Sequel Pro for years, but interface limitations and crashes finally set me off looking for a replacement after some stressful production debugging sessions.

After trying a few like MySQL Workbench and Navicat, I landed on Querious and haven't looked back since. It's not free in either sense of the word but well worth the ~$50 USD license IMO.

Interface-wise I found it to be easier/more familiar to switch to from Sequel Pro, as compared to some of the alternatives mentioned above - more on the light and nimble side, less on the heavy interface enterprisey-feeling side if that makes sense.

It's Mac native, performant, and very stable. Some very basic features that felt like a big upgrade from Sequel Pro:

- Arbitrary WHERE clause support in the data view, so you don't need to switch to a full manual query as soon as you need slightly more complex conditions

- Multiple query tabs - I used to spawn multiple Sequel Pro instances because this was so hard to live without. There's also good management of query history and saved queries.

- Robust and performant import/export tools

No affiliation with the developer, just wanted to give a shout-out to a high quality piece of software that I've really appreciated using.

This... this looks great for the independent newscasters, that presently don't get to be featured in Google at all. Think the blog, youtube channel or private website that currently can't get any inroads with the news, due to utter dominance of a few select players.

While the new EU copyright laws would be bad for the internet as whole, this particular aspect - leveling playing field in the news space - would help diversify news delivery away from the current sad state of a handful large companies mostly feeding off of the same few wire services.
> 1. It was an advisory vote, not constitutionally binding

Parliament can't bind itself, so all referendums in the UK are advisory; indeed the UK has no constitution as such. In any case, what would be different in a re-run?

> 2. The leave campaign broke the law

You're talking about the breach of spending limits? Those limits are important and those who break them should be punished; at the same time small-scale breaches of the limits are relatively normal occurrences that we've never redone an election over. I'm pretty sure all the main parties have broken them at some point or another (and been duly fined for doing so).

> 3. To quote the parent post "Brexit was an entirely empty vessel into which voters’ fantasies were poured. The outcome in no way resembles any of the ideas that were articulated before the referendum".

Like I said, what do you think has changed? The predictable consequences of Brexit now are much the same as the predictable consequences of Brexit at referendum time. The no deal outcome is the same as it ever was, the deal on the table is the deal anyone who thought about it would have predicted.

This post, and most of the comments here, seem to miss the main selling point of 5G (at least for consumers): consistency and reliability.

With wireless data connections, you're sharing the medium (and therefore the bandwidth) with all other users of the same frequencies. This is the reason that you can have absolutely terrible performance in a densely populated city, despite having a maximum strength 4G signal. Having the 20+Ghz channels enables operators to install a large number of micro-cells in these areas. Even if they don't penetrate walls, moving everyone outdoors on to these cells free's up the lower-frequency cells for indoor users, substantially reducing contention.

Another improvement over 4G that hasn't been mentioned by anyone is, supposedly, that it will significantly reduce latency and interruptions from moving between cells. This is especially apparent when travelling at speed (e.g. on a train).

The effect to consumers of both of these is that we'd get much more consistent performance.
True enough, but that's the nature of a referendum, and applies equally to both sides.
It's not just somewhat-distant friends and/or family.

I've lost the count of how many local events I've subscribed and went to: flea markets, farm fairs, shop and cafe openings, celebrations, sales, hikes, hobbyist meetups, the list just goes on.

It's much much much easier for people to setup and coordinate events of almost any size through Facebook events. Nothing else comes even close. It's also incredibly easy to share and invite other people (within the FB platform/ecosystem of course).

Reminds me of the cooler and more general form of synesthesia, 'ideasthesia' - like synesthesia where concepts get sensory augmentation https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideasthesia

So... I wonder then if there is duality in this mapping like between frequency/time domains with a Fourier transform of signal over time, just, instead, over a concept domain

(grid/place) cells :: spatial resolution / location

<->

cells, which if combined, encode concepts :: conceptual resolution/frequency (??)

I don't think it's putting animal life above human life so much as putting family before non-family even if the family is an animal.

Granted that wouldn't be the priority that I would consider ideal, but I don't think it's illogical.

Would it be possible to work remotely from Europe?
This situation probably doesn't apply to people on HN, but as a thought experiment: In a pre-industrial society or one where rule of law has broken down I could see a situation where the labor and protection provided by an animal made them a part of the family in a very real way. In those circumstances I could see that the life of an animal might be much more important than the life of an outsider; even if only in a strictly practical sense.

Note that I'm not necessarily trying to argue whether that would be correct in a moral sense.
I don't think it's fair to say the creator of ESLint is not making a buck out of his code. His twitter page for example is full of commercial links to his own products.

Complaining about "I do things for free" while your free product is the gateway to your paying products (in this case gaining followers and popularity to sell them other things or directing them to his ad-containing website) seems totally dishonest to me.

Doesn't mean he's not doing god's work with ESLint <3, it's just that this specific tweet is really not covering the full story. Maybe his books and website earns him pennies a month and it's a shame, maybe he does six figures with them, I won't hasard a guess.

Tesla to cut its workforce by 7 percent to ramp up Model 3 production
I was an early investor in Tesla (I cashed out a few years ago). I believe in their mission. I wish their success.

But this is hard, simultaneously telling your workforce:

1) We need to you work harder, better, and faster.
2) To help you achieve this, we will be reducing your headcount (and thus resources) by 7%.
3) By the way, if you fail, the company fails.

…But keep your heads up, it's for the planet! At some point these thousands of folks that remain are going to start asking "Is it worth it?" That coupled with legitimate competition from their "entrenched" competitors, 2019 looks to be a very difficult year for Tesla.

I still hope they succeed; I just hope the real, human costs are worth it.
That's because capitalist will keep draining everything, whether it's deregulation, cutting budgets or "quantitative easing".

We are at an age where there's so much food and shelter surplus that we shoudn't waste timing writing code for a program that tries to sell crap to people.

Life can be so much better. We just have to follow what the French are doing right now. Upgrade the common sense of what should be basic human rights.

> “They have the advantage of being able to use consumer viewing patterns to optimize their new show”

From a cultural or art critical point of view, this is a negative though. Movies end up being made to appeal to lowest common denominator tastes or themes for a broad audience.

The recent movie Bird Box is a great example. Total garbage, derivative movie, clumsy, contrived villains, manufactured tension with no actual plot driving any of it. Yet became somewhat of a viral hit.

If this is what Netflix’s data lets them optimize towards, count me out.
Couldn't trying to find common experience be a useful/valid way to express empathy?
If you are experienced with media messages enough, you always start reading such messages from the end. I most cases introduction is totally meaningless and is used to make the message polite.
It is nice it is true. But some time ago SequelPro was crashed on my Mac. Since then I moved to TablePluse. It is much more convinent for me. Contain everyting what I need and I can use for manage another types of database (Redis, Postgres, Mongo..). I highly recomend TablePlus.
How to Claim Flight Delay Compensation? Step-By-Step Guide

These cuts seem much more like an unplanned event and an indication of things not going according to plan than the cuts in the middle of last year. Those seemed like a good way to readjust to the realities of high volume production and get rid of redundancies.

I wonder in which areas of production they've experienced slower progress than what they'd anticipated last year.

It’s a user experience tax, I think. Most utilities on a Mac are a pure joy to use, well-maintained, and integrate terrifically with the OS.

You can have LTE voice even if you've maxed your data cap, from a technical point of view. For 2G/3G it's true that those standards support pretty independent CS (voice) and PS (data) connection, so it's natural to decouple voice and data. For LTE, and also NR, only the PS domain exists. It's still possible to separate Internet access from voice though, and they are. It's just done in a different way. 2G/3G/4G support multiple concurrent data connections, called PDN. Each is like a different IP interface, and some are terminated on the modem itself and not exposed to the user. In the typical LTE deployment, you have an IMS PDN for voice signaling and data, an admin PDN for the remote management of the telco using OMA-DM, and an Internet access PDN for the end user --- and the only one you'll see. Traffic on those PDN are fully segregated, and counted separately. So the IMS and Admin PDN traffic do NOT count as part of your data cap, it's on top.

Thanks to this LTE IMS voice is separated from data, like 3G even if it's done differently.

Of course, this doesn't apply to OTT voice: that is always in the Internet PDN and in your data cap.

To get back to 3G, it'll slowly die. Anything you can do on 3G you can do better on 4G. So operators tend to use their 3G infra to the max, but they won't upgrade it. It'll be replaced by 4G over time, until they eventually pull the 3G plug.
Well, I am also offended by your stipulations. Now we are both offended. Let's use this as a chance to practice seeing eye-to-eye even in the face of irreconcilable moral differences, eh? It's a skill we're probably going to need as a civilization.

Now, the specifics - it seems to me the particular moral axiom in question here is that "human life is always worth more than non-human life". Others in this thread have pointed out that you can't use that to make statements about what sort of grief people ought to feel, and I would hope that whatever your moral framework, compassion for grieving humans (whatever their moral framework) should factor into it.

However, I also think it's worth tackling this particular moral axiom head-on. The value of a human life is not constant or consistent between people - your own family is worth more to you than a stanger's, and you even admit that a dog might warrant more grief than a terrible person, even if that terrible person is family. Well, the value of a canine life isn't constant either. If it's possible and justifiable to love a dog more than family because the family is bad, why shouldn't it be possible and justifiable to love a dog as much as family, because the dog is good? There's a continuum, not a hard cutoff of "humans > dogs". Even if you think the average human is worth more than the average dog, you shouldn't be surprised - or offended - by other people's bereavement.

(I'd like to add an argument-from-Hollywood: They even made a whole film about a man cutting a swathe through evil, violent mobsters in a righteous fury, because they killed his dog. They made a very similar film about a man doing this because evil, violent mobsters kidnapped his daughter. Clearly, the emotions are comparable, and according to hollywood dogs and family are both worth more than evil, violent, human mobsters).
I don't see the relation between any of the things you mentioned. I gave you downvote because I believe your comment seeks to inflame and distract from the conversation at present.
Magic the Gathering also has the benefit of training the children in manipulating complex systems with strict rules and adversaries. The amount of abstract thinking, long-, mid- and short-term planning, statistics, environment surveying, ... I will literally do my best to get my children into this or a similar game.

But that doesn't detract from the previous commenter's point: gambling aimed at children has always been there. Internet is merely an amplifier here.
Of course you maintain a heirarchy of grief, but it's your heirarchy - it's not a shared heirarchy where your loss of a close relationship is deigned less or greater than someone else's loss of a close relationship.

Grief is grief. What's at the top of your list might not be the top of someone elses. You don't invalidate someone else's grief because yours ranks higher on your own list.

The high P/E values for these companies are usually giant signals they are overvalued.

Probably the only company that can legitimately sustain a ridiculous P/E is Amazon, and it’s because Amazon is the only large company willing to try weird shit and actually take product risks. I’m not a big fan of Amazon’s company culture, but I have to hand it to them that at least they try to do shit and see what works. Most companies beyond a certain size fall victim to in-house risk aversion through manager ranks to such a high degree that all innovative ideas are killed and only incremental product changes are allowed.

You're assuming that I haven't read about Git. I've read a ton about it and its internal data structures. And regarding your digression, I'm a vim user.

Regarding Git, Git does suck. It does the job Linus designed it to do, but that job is not most software engineers across the world need it to do.

In smaller or in corporate shops, Subversion was almost adequate and several bad implementation details, mostly related to branching, led to its demise. So that world needed Subversion++, not Git.

In the FAANG world, there's basically no company that uses Git as-is. It's strength/weaknesses aka tradeoffs aren't good enough for them.

Git won because tech is a popularity contest and people in our domain like to do a lot of virtue signalling ("this tool is hard to use, I use it, so I'm special/cool").

I'm honestly curious, this topic (how people arrive at their morality) fascinates me. We would probably agree a lot (I don't eat meat mostly out of a similar logic).

Why innocence? How does innocence make a life more valuable? It's true that the kid has done nothing wrong, whereas the 40yo has sinned thoroughly, but on the other hand the kid has done nothing good for the world, and the 40yo probably has.

And vulnerability? If a high-speed train/cancer/thug is going to kill a 40yo and a toddler, how does the increased inherent vulnerability of the toddler make any difference?
