If I understood the article correctly (and I think I didn't) it says learnability of a given data-set is like the halting problem, there is no general algorithm for deciding whether an arbitrary data-set is learnable. Am I close?
It’s not a gender thing. Although, it’s a mental issue —> narcissism, pride, ego.

These traits exist in each and everyone to some scale of a degree.

But I agree, as someone who used to be super passionate about research. I would say seeing highly regarded individuals fabricate data and assume wrong assumptions, in order to appear respected and important, did dissuade me and me think of the research industry in a different light, one of a business.

There are many smart scientists, and they are working hard. The ones that have the resources and means to influence academic papers, experiments and grants are able to influence particular theories and experiments over others.

️ that can lead some theories, your example dark matter is a perfect example to be more accepted than questioned.

If you have better numbers for ChromeOS world domination, care to share them with us?
No, it is not, at least if by West you mean to include the United States. There has never been a point in US history where we have been more free to say anything and everything.
Can you elaborate on what drives the capacity constraint for someone not in the industry?
Maybe just having some groups, like Firefox's containers.
It's less secure, but a simple setup would drastically reduce the number of programs with access to important information.
If I offered you lottery tickets in lieu of a paycheck would you take those? They have KNOWN published odds on lottery tickets, and you could sit down and do the math but your still taking a risk.

Not only do you NOT know the odds with options, they may not be as liquid as you think. Even if your company is doing well in 4 years do you KNOW that you can sell them? If they aren't publicly traded and you NEED to cash some in (life happens) you might find that the best you can get is pennies on the dollar.

IF you are going to consider the options they make SURE you get a cap table. Make sure that you can read and understand what you are given. Where you fall on it and what the outcomes might be (massive dilution)

Generalized Language Models
From the air. From the ground they look like an irregular and haphazard series of corners, which is part of the point.
None of those examples you mentioned had a lack of evidence, which is why we changed our perspective on how those things worked. The opposition to them was not scientific.
Yes, I know that. I didn't mean that sort of "news". I meant the results of insider leaks, prosecutions, fines, vulnerability discoveries, investigative journalism, and so on.
I'd say not originally. But over time, as the Perl 6 project got delayed in the 2000's, it was decided that Parrot would be a runtime for all scripting languages. Which in turn meant it couldn't cater well enough for any. Which led to its demise.
Even old school Authorize.net has a “simple checkout” feature that does exactly what you described. The admin UI is straight from 1998, but it works.
Our own optimism drives us to stay evolutionary fit. Which is great for us. I just wish I could see the full picture one day.

It’s mind boggling to think everyone who has lived on this planet died with an incomplete picture and understanding about the true nature of the universe.
Nobody seems to have a good idea for what we are dealing with other than we have a mysterious extra "force" show up in our observations, so there's no real "shame" in being wrong here because nobody's gotten it right.

Doesn't that pretty much describe the MS Surface Book?
> This is a deep dive — THIS IS NOT a beginner-friendly post. In this post, I’m describing most of the React programming model from first principles. I don’t explain how to use it — just how it works.

Ok, now that author feels better, let's move on..? Or what is the purpose of such 'disclaimers' and 'warnings'? Let the reader see whether the article is at their appropriate level, don't patronize...

I really dislike these. I can skim the text, and within 30s, I can see whether it might be my level or not. This feels, however, that the author is purposely driving me away for no other reason than 'you don't make a living with react, so shoo, this is for the big boys'.
> When I commonly read print media, I used to go through first and tear out all the ads, seeing them as little as possible, and pasting blank paper over the ones that had desired text on the other side.

To each his or her own, I guess. Do you close your eyes when venturing outside as well? Also, as I am sure you are aware, much of what you read has been pitched and influenced by PR agencies: that’s what they do. When you read about a product in some publication, that product didn’t just randomly find itself as part of a story, a PR firm helped get it there. I might suggest that you might be a bit naïve about how advertising, media and PR work. You can’t escape it even if you think you are.
I bought a test and had to use my own name for shipping and payment (because of the delivery and payment services involved). Someone else (cough, cough) registered the test for their own sample and the results.

For 23andme, the discovery of relatives is optional. A user can choose to not receive any information about potential relatives, or to disclose minimal information, to allow messaging without names, or to disclose a name. I may be misremembering some of the granularity, but names do not have to be automatically disclosed.

I think, rather, that HN discourages saying something when you have nothing to say.
this is about science. scientists, by today's definition of the term, were enemies of the church (and still are). other scientists did not burn anyone for saying the earth rotates around the sun, they did not put nails in demented people's heads because "demons," nor did they implement any of the other examples you are thinking of.

the rest of your comment is based on the wrong assumption of your start, hence there is no embarrassment for earlier works. Newton was not embarrassed by quantum mechanics.
> If we encountered an alien species with as much intellectual distance from us as we are to the monkeys, then how would our most innovative theories fare against theirs?

That depends on how far you are willing to suspend disbelief in your concept of what such an alien might look like.

Are they made of atoms? If so, then they are overwhelmingly like to have senses very similar to ours. This is because our senses are fundamentally rooted in the physics of atoms, and there just aren't that many fundamentally different things that atoms can do. They can absorb and emit photons, they can stick together and be pried apart, they can emit alpha and beta particles, and they can fuse and fission. That's about it. And with those fundamental building blocks there is only so much you can do. You can imagine, say, aliens that can natively detect different parts of the E-M spectrum than we do, but that's not going to lead them to new physics that we haven't discovered.

On the other hand, if these aliens are made of dark matter then all bets are off. But given how hard it is for us to detect dark matter at all it's hard to imagine how we would get to the point where we would even recognize a life form made of it, let alone figure out how to communicate with it.
These days most experts are overloaded with info. Unless someone is constantly pinging them about an issue they aren't going to think about it.
An industrial designer would sketch the outline then the images would be brought into parametric CAD software as references. The 2D image can be built into 2D/3D lines, then these curves are used to create surfaces which finally are stitched together. The nature of complex surfaces interacting and joining seamlessly is where the difficulty lies. "A class" surfacing is an entire speciality and can take a career to master.

Not completely on the subject, but I had to read the first sentence 5 times, before I was able to understand its meaning. Then I realized it was too long, so modified it to following version. Is it better or worse?

"A team of researchers has stumbled on a question that is mathematically unanswerable. It is linked to logical paradoxes, that were discovered by Austrian mathematician Kurt Gödel in the 1930s and it can’t be solved using standard mathematics."

Gen X were 20-something’s in the ‘90’s, that group is just hitting the ageism barrier themselves.

The problem is the massive influx of newcomers to the industry who have no experience and crow very loudly that experience doesn’t matter, or that their 6-week bootcamp is as good as a degree+decades of experience. Well the joke will be on them too one day, they are just too inexperienced to realise it.
There are some devs at my office who swear by it; most of us have 2 monitors. I'm sure I could get used to both.
Next time just propose a better idea.

Hmm, neither of these make me feel especially good about income potential available currently. The software in SF number also seems much closer to what I would expect to see in Austin or Houston, and I would expect a good experienced engineer can pull closer to $150k+ in those cities.

NP-hard and undecidability are completely different things. They’re barely on the same planet.
It is particularly sad that many languages treat foreign function interfaces and remote procedure calls as unwanted, debilitated children. I can easily imagine a utopia in which software would plug together via function/procedure/method calls rather than shared files or web APIs or some other popular but improvised and less thought out alternatives. Why are we not there?
The author of the article is a contributor to React and the author of Redux. So the disclaimer is valid, because lots of people read his stuff and might expect some React tutorial or whatever.
There's now Cirrus CI to use for free with FreeBSD images. It's also much faster than Travis CI (with macOS which is almost FreeBSD, at least their libc) and Appveyor CI.

Both conquistadors were helped by native fighters, so these numbers only show the Spanish warriors not their massive allied army.
The one letter password guessing still has relevance today in systems vulnerable to a timing attack. If the timing of password validation is affected by the valid-prefix length (which it would be if the password validation is a simple strcmp()) then you can use that to brute-force the password character-by-character.
The underlying problem here is that Google has no capacity to adjudicate copyright claims. How the heck are they even supposed to know who the copyright holder is? The troll claims it's theirs, the user claims it's theirs, they have no basis on which to believe one or the other.

In theory you can register with the copyright office, but it isn't required and >99% of YouTube users won't have registered anything, so then what does that prove?

This before you even consider fair use, which is hard enough for judges after a year long trial, much less something they're expected to decide thousands of times every day.

So you have the claimants post bond. Then what? You still need a way to know which claims are false, which they still haven't got.

They're making decisions based on no information. They're trying to play a role they're not equipped to play. Google is not the court system.

Peer review is not paid work. Mostly it is done as an overhead that is understood as part of being an active researcher.

I would even venture to say that most researchers will be against the idea of paid reviews, just like Amazon found out that paid product reviews are a very bad idea.
So why did Google decide to delete all those Panoramio photos, then? And user numbers don’t mean anything to Google if they decide to kill a product, look at Google+.
Diagonal measurements don't work that way.

A 24" (16:9) screen is about 21" wide. An equivalent double-wide screen (32:9) would measure 43.5"

The 49" Dell here is like two 27" screens side by side.
> being responsible for the decisions can't be separated from making those decisions.

Disagree. This is the essence of delegation. You trust the person or team to decide the best path forward.

Do you think Tim Cook is responsible for the sum of decisions at Apple (yes)? Do you think he makes all the decisions(no)?

Good managers trust the team. If they don't, they'll repeat the team's work and ruin team morale and burn themselves out.
Wouldn't a simple union mount + cron job solve this problem relatively easy?
the tunnel was always sort of dumb, but seattle had a really reasonable traffic growth plan for its expected growth. the actual growth has been way higher than the plan.
What was your setup? I find while two windows of actual code is about my sweet spot, I could definitely use more panes for informational stuff: magit, output from long-running processes, etc. Plus space for the application itself.
These are seriously big and well funded companies. Why do they need to share development? If Cruise can build a working prototype as a startup so can BMW. What is going on?

Part of me wonders if self driving tech ended up being harder than expected. These companies can't get it to work but also don't want to be left behind. Collaboration makes perfect sense.

Pure speculation.
MD5 signatures, lol.

They do have GPG .sig files now, so do they should announce it how to use it, as most other GNU projects. It's in the newer announce templates.

Wasn’t it from 10% to 8%? That 2% is misleading there, it makes it look far less significant than it was.

Google’s human-resources department presents potential ways to cut the company’s $20 billion compensation budget

More than once over the years, my wife has given herself an ordeal with reserving airfares and hotels and then had to go through website or phone support to try to untangle it. I watched it happen once, and diagnosed it as a crappy website using cookies/local storage for what appears to be a normal HTML form. This recurring flaw makes the reservation system completely unsafe with multiple tabs performing searches in parallel.

She has an almost compulsive habit to go through the booking process, pause on the final review screen with the "submit" button, and research other options in extra tabs before returning to submit the original order. The result is that she is looking at that previously rendered summary, presses submit, and gets a completely different configuration booked because the activity in the other tab contaminated the state of the pathetic web app.

Due to these experiences and others, I mistrust web programmers and try to avoid complex state. I defensively complete all my research, and then I start a fresh booking sequence in a private browser window to directly snipe the selection I desire.

Correct Figures for Ion Propelled Aircraft
One of the commenters said it is possible to lift about "1.1kg/kw using pulsed ion propulsion." The correct numbers are 1.1 grams/kw. This is why all such craft have had a ground based power supply before the "Self Contained Ion Powered Aircraft" (US Patent NO. 10,119,527) was invented. Please see the videos and website. For this invention the lift to weight ratio had to be increased by several orders of magnitude compared to all other such machines...(These rough numbers are completely verifiable!)

Generally speaking, pulsed power can interreact with the power supply to show a slight increase in lift, but pulses really don't improve the lift or efficiency if the measurements and supply are correctly done, except perhaps sub-nanosecond pulses,(the same energy goes into the air the same way). I'll be happy if someone can prove me wrong on this detail. I've done perhaps tens of thousands of experiments over the past 19 years though with ion propulsion.
That's a tax deduction limit not an IRA contribution limit. You make an after-tax IRA contribution (up to the IRA contribution limit of $6K/year in 2019) not subject to any income limit and then convert to Roth IRA.
I’ve used mermaid for documentation, through plugins for mkdocs and Sphinx. What’s great about it is that the diagrams are stored as readable source text in the documentation, which is easy to diff and modify along with the rest of the doc (search and replace when renaming a component etc).

That’s a huge benefit compared to storing rendered bitmaps, with a source file next to them. There’s much more friction involved in keeping those up to date, the changes don’t display usefully in PRs etc. They’re almost never up to date as a result.

Another thing mermaid lets you easily do is generate sequence diagrams from code such as testcases, because the format is so simple and line-driven.
The outpout can also be included in documentation as samples, and is guaranteed to be up-to-date.

I have experienced two times a leap in productivity that subjectively felt like a game changer. The first was from a baseline of a good MVC kit like Cocoa or pre-QML Qt to the MVVM paradigm, and the second was to React (with ClojureScript and Reagent).
Cost control. They are already working together on various different things. In the high end market, it doesn’t matter if you have your own self-driving software or you co-develop. People who purchase a Mercedes vs BMW select base on different things like brand loyalty and perception. To me (personally), I would always pick BMW over an Audi or Mercedes, even if they all came from the same groupation / factory, because it’s the brand I care about.

You would think so but having closely watched this online maps space for more than 10 years there was almost no-one who managed to really compete with Google on delivering nicer maps and nicer satellite views. Yahoo Maps used to have a more useful reverse geo-location API at the very beginning (I think 2005-2006) but shortly after Google caught up even there and they haven’t been surpassed by anyone since then.

Say nothing for the custom hardware google uses in the form of TPUs.

I ended up cranking up the acceleration on my pointer input to easily toss the cursor around the whole desktop, and sometimes find myself annoyed with detail work or trying to drag very small targets and instead clicking something else nearby. Another issue is that after returning to the screen after some time, I can sometimes lose track of where the cursor is and have to thrash it around to cause enough motion for me to easily find it on the huge work area.
