Paying for university is the cheap part of most college experiences. That's part of the point. People are whining about student debt. But they are using that debt to pay rent, but cars, order another round of beer, buy another laptop...

If you want a college education, they can be had in quality for under $15,000/year total. Tuition, fees, books, rent, food, laundry, everything. No car, used laptop, state school. If there isn't one across the street from you, look around. My kids are spread across the country. So far, they all have degrees they can be proud of.

University of Nebraska has campus housing as low as $4000/year. Tuition and fees ~$9000/year.
Boise State has 3 bedroom apartments for $825/month. Tuition and fees ~$8000/year. $2000 scholarship to residents with 3.3+ GPA.
Arizona State has apartments for ~$5000/year. Tuition and fees ~$11000/year.
Georgia Tech has apartments for ~$6400/year. Tuition and fees ~$12500/year

If you don't have the money, don't expect MIT. But you can get a decent--sometimes best-in-class--STEM degree from state colleges. Go in with five roomates on rent. Cook planned meals. Give up your smart phone and its $60/month plan. Pretend like you're really poor. Live like you're really, really poor. For four years.

Then when you're done, lose out on real big job offers to MIT grads and settle for something under 6 figures (read 7 figures in Silicon Valley).
Are there any good frameworks of just stylized components? In my experience building Bootstrap / Bulma without their not-grid grids and layout systems breaks all the component styles or makes them act really wonky. Like trying to grid-align or flex-basis a Bulma or Bootstrap btn can get all kinds of weird stuff going on.
Can't argue with any of that.

Presumably, at some point in the future UWP support will extend beyond WPF's support window, and right now they are both supported, so it would be silly to switch solely for the sake of making IoT Core a viable deployment platform for you.
Not to mention how much of Medium is behind their paywall...
The way it actually functions is to reward those who are able to organize, and repeatedly that has been overwhelmingly those with money and resources to devote to such organization. That means wealthy elites and corporations, who have lobbyists and PR firms working for them. Individuals who are not able to organize at scale are not represented. The PR war against trade unions is part of the effort to suppress the influence of those lacking large bank accounts or leisure time.
I don't think you mean to use a term as strong as diffeomorphism. A diffeomorphism is differentiable, sure, but it is also invertable with a differentiable inverse. They have a lot of properties that machine learning honestly does not want, like preservation of dimension.

ERRRR big red flag here.
While the Wikipedia article for 'limited liability' somewhat hints at NY being the first place where 'limited liability' was a legal concept accessible to all (although I'm not sure why that article does that - it's probably an unintended side effect of its main point being a history of Anglo-Saxon law regarding limited liability companies as we know them today), the French 'Ordonnance de Commerce' of 1673 (!) already codified limited liability partnerships in which investors were not liable for more than their contribution in the company. They could be founded by mere 'notarial deed' (although this translation doesn't really capture the nuances of the concept in civil law). Of course those were not the same as today's (Anglo-Saxon) LLC's and PLC's, but my point was that protection of investors in bankruptcy was something that emerged in the 17th century, at the very dawn of 'capitalism' as we know it today, and it's not something the English invented. I've thrown out most of my law school books on legal history and I don't remember all that much about the details, but any law school library has literally 100's of books on this exact topic, it's not like this is something controversial.
That's not how the drug approval process goes in this country, for better or worse. Also noted some misinformation in the comments.

FDA will approve drugs from companies or individuals that pay for the application. The cost is pretty high today, something on the order of $2-3M USD just for the application. That's not including the cost of supporting data you need to have (Phase 1-3) that will likely cost a large amount to support (multiple centers, paying participants, wholesale cost of drug, paying investigators, researchers, statisticians, etc). Side note, should companies be able to justify exorbitant prices for their drugs based on this cost? No, probably not, but smarter people than myself have debated this on HN.

Why do I mention this? Because ketamine for use in intranasal form for treatment of depression is not off patent. That's right, Mount Sinai Hospital (Icahn School of Medicine) was granted that patent in 2007. A non-profit institution, mind you. So, if I were a drug company, looking to make a profitable form of intranasal ketamine, wouldn't I try and sidestep the patent entirely, reducing overhead on my end?

Also, calling esketamine a knock off is disingenuous. It's an enantiomer, therefore literally half of what is in normal ketamine. It's also probably the more potent half.

Edit: originally wrote that ketamine patent was granted in 2017, meant 2007.
Edit2: originally wrote that NYU held the patent to intranasal ketamine when it was actually Mount sinai hospital.
Java itself makes things a pain. Compare establishing a tls connection with a client certificate in python and in java. Guess which language has a secure one line way to do it.

Probably a lot of people just get lured in by social media, video games, Netflix, etc and then spend far more time on these things than they would actually like. I doubt many people are consciously prioritizing their web surfing or video game time, but it just turns out that way since these things are designed to be habit forming.
And you haven't addressed the implied global scope your hypothetical neural watchdog requires.

Find a global watchdog behaving in the manner you describe within any neural system for any animal at any period in the history of Earth's biosphere.

Find any "neural system resetting" anywhere, in fact.

That sounds interesting. Can you describe that in more detail?
There is still Candy Crush
That should be most older people you know, then. Older people often choose Apple products due to the comparative simplicity of the operating system and UX. However, Android is far more popular in terms of total units sold on both phones and tablets, so the parent comment is broadly true.
Trying to come up with the one correct interpretation is as futile as trying to get to heaven by good deeds (impossible). All interpretations fall short just like all humans do. Salvation is not won by ingenious interpreting, but by grace through the sacrificial death of Christ, given to believers regardless of denomination. See 1st Corinthians 3:12-15.

That said, I think certain denominations do a better job of spreading Christianity. Some liberal denominations seem to think they can win hearts and minds by being bland enough. Who would go to a YMCA with a preacher, when they could just go to a regular YMCA instead? See Proverbs 14:12; James 4:4.
jQuery still does a lot of useful stuff. The best advertisement for jQuery, ironically, is this site: http://youmightnotneedjquery.com/ Look at how simple things are in the left column, and how much more code is needed in the right column.

jQuery has many convenience features such as chaining, for example: item.addClass('selected').siblings().removeClass('selected'); and you don't have to check for nulls after each selection.

Many functions such as closest() and remove() have no equivalents in IE11, and other things such as replaceWith() and before() are not available even in Edge.

For simple sites it is easy enough to remove jQuery, but for more complex javascript applications, especially apps that have a lot of interactivity, removing jQuery will result in more code, or you will end up writing a lot of utility functions thereby creating your own little clone of jQuery.
Why not employee owned co-op game development? That doesn't need to be mutually exclusive with unionization.
Or better yet, a service existed that paid per view. Microtransactions, for example, could pay per article read in a similar way to Medium's system (although it would be better if there was just a wallet that it paid from, without a minimum monthly charge). I know Brave is working toward that goal, and I like what they're doing, but I'd prefer if their system was universal (I refuse to use their browser).
After almost 20 years as a commercial developer I forget entire projects, entire jobs even. Someone will mention a company name and it takes me a few seconds to realize that the reason the name is familiar is because I briefly worked there 15 years ago. Jobs I held for multiple years are fine but any short stints are a blur.
Blizzard really tried to make Starcraft 2 "a thing" and, while it has a devoted following, I don't think it ever got to the level of success Blizzard was seeking. I can understand why, from a business perspective, Blizzard decided not to pursue Starcraft for the foreseeable future.

I think it's worth saying that, on some level, the social phenomenon of Starcraft 1 and Warcraft 3 came from the user-created content that came out of the games' full-featured map editors. Now, it feels like that creative energy is flowing through Minecraft-like games and massively improved freely available game engines.
I've had similar case where our email was blocked by Symantec product, which happened to be used by email services a lot.

I've spent enormous amount of time communicating with providers and Symantec with little or no luck. Provider's stuff is incompetent and lazy quite often, they mostly didn't reply or replied with response we can't do so. Contacting Symantec wasn't helpful as well - they recommended to talk to email provider's stuff.

Eventually we set up mail routing for those domains via other server/domain - whichever worked in each case. It's tedious to maintain but there is no way around. Using well known email service is not a guarantee as well - some email services might block it for no reason or just use product which is blocking it.

Summarising, I'd focus on improving deliverability in any possible way without wasting time for communication.
Art has a hard time? That surprises me - if your artist leaves you can’t just hire someone with the same style can you?
It hasn't been fixed though, and we have early voting and absentee ballots. I mean, if we really wanted to fix it we could without using online voting, but that is just one positive upside of online voting is higher voter turnout.
Psychedelic is one term that is almost certainly more correct. "Entheogen" is perhaps another. But "hallucinogen" and "psychotomimetic" do not properly describe my experience nor anyone I know.
> I don’t think it is - mutations (and state management) are the biggest issue.

How so? I don't think GraphQL mutations are any worse than their REST equivalents, especially once you get more complex than "update these fields on this entity".
They're striving for greatness in new ways, like teaching kids to spend irresponsibly on loot boxes then firing everyone and waiting on a plan B when they realize Europe is not open to gambling options for kids.
For larger titles you absolutely can. They basically write a "how you do this art style" guide, character design guides, etc.

Do you want a great college education? Without debt? Without work? Without sacrifice? I can't help you. But if you are willing to work, and sacrifice a little, I can help you.

Many prefer to rack up huge debt, then complain about it.
Back in 60s, we could do that as well. We just chose not to.

These days, though, it feels like all infrastructure work is bogged down everywhere in US. Things get built, but they take ages, and cost several times more than originally predicted.

I'm not a libertarian, but one does wonder if we're strangling our economy with over-regulation in that particular department.

Fair PVP and Personal Loot are both rapidly becoming genre standard, since the only people who complain are griefers/trolls.

I can't argue about the tonal shift at all. Acts 3+4 were a lot of fun, but nothing that held a candle to Diablo 2.

Both games are painfully easy when you're starting out. I think Diablo 1 is the only game in the franchise that was even slightly challenging in the first half?

Really surprised by the "locked down/narrow" aspect, though. Diablo 3 has the option to play the linear Campaign, or you can do Rifts (randomized dungeons), or Bounties (flit around to complete 5 mini-events across the act). There's also a ton of randomized and optional mini-events that will come up as you do the campaign. It was one of the few things I really appreciated over D2 :)
People who wanted to cheat were already cheating.
Have you got a link to the study about this? To be honest, I feel a lot of these claims are like nutritional studies, where when you look into it the original study wasn't great or are for highly specific scenarios but the general claim will be spread for decades anyway.

For this one for instance, what was being bought? How expensive? How did the prices vary? What about shelf positions? Who were the customers? How many customers? How were they made to pick a direction? How long were they shopping for? What factors were and weren't controlled for?

Usually when the controls aren't great, you find that further studies that improve on the controls lead to the measured effect size getting smaller and smaller.

Maybe not the case here, I don't know, but I'm very skeptical about general claims that sound hard to measure.
To reply to the later bit about spin...

Fundamentally, the us government is there to represent the interests of the citizens. Or if you go back far enough the states, which in turn are there for the citizens. Unless you buy into the idea that really the representative nature of the government is to represent the interests of the wealth elite and make it appear that the people have a say by electing their representatives. Something that I think the 17th amendment/etc tries to clear up...

Labor unions are there to represent the interests of labor.

Given that the majority of voting age people in the us, fall into the labor category there is a fairly large crossover of common interests between labor unions and general government when it comes to economic issues.
I realize that, and I don’t have the valuation numbers for either company, presumably CB Insights does.
But using the example you gave, if there were a list of companies entering the 3 billion valuation, business fundamentals aside, I’d be hard pressed to pick between Aurora and Nuro.

At my company we had an "Art Director" for each title that dictated the style to use, this employee was indeed highly valued (and only the longest/most loyal folks got picked for it), but the actual artists working day-to-day were quite replaceable.
Wow, I wish you'd written the article. Thank you. I can only imagine what you'd be able to explain if you had as much space as the author...

It sounds like you're just describing an evolution of functional programming; where each area of computation in the program is contextually generalizable, because its set of inputs and outputs is smooth and differentiable.

One followup question: are you sure the maps need to be (or are generally intended to be) isomorphic? That strikes me as very limiting. I follow your point about compositions of diffeomorphisms being diffeomorphisms themselves, but do you need that invertibility to make this paradigm work?
that requires the pharmacy to somehow obtain nasal spray. Unfortunately, no manufacturer actually sells a nasal spray variety (yet) as there was no FDA-approved use for intranasal ketamine. That being said, compounders have been able to make intranasal ketamine formulations for a while now, since this treatment for acute depression has been well recognized in the literature for at least a decade.
And when the wheel is so bloated the car can barely make it down the road without needing to refill the fuel tank a new more lightweight reliable wheel that can handle modern terrain is needed. That is why people are moving away from Jquery.
FWIW, my girlfriend recently interviewed with two of the FAANG companies, and both said they are planning for a doubling of headcount within ~2-5 years.
I agree and saying "not a priority" instead of "don't have time" helps with that too.

"Sorry reading books is not a priority"

Wait ... then what is a priority? Social media? Screw that!!

And it prompts you to [try to] do better with your time.

Remember when we used to read books a few pages at a time on the pooper instead of scrolling through twitter or hackernews? Good times.

The simple truth is, heavy rail does not work. There is no where outside of Japan with its very high population density that it does work. Europe you say? On average a European resident will use urban and intercity trains only five hundred miles more than Americans will. It is romanticism, ribbon cutting, and not realism, that keeps this illusion that trains will solve transportation issues alive. In Europe driving and flying are growing far faster than trains except in limited parts of Britain and Switzerland

so with regards to American implementation, even the urban light rail systems are all follies outside of NYC simply because they are not where the people want to be but instead where planners want people to be. then to top it off they cannot be volume adjusted because you cannot just reroute a train. buses are by far more economical and flexible, they just aren't sexy for ribbon cutting whores that politicians are.

on a side note, one hole in California's budget is the same in every high tax state. The law change to the Federal Tax system to have the rich pay more of their share by not letting them deduct as much from the Federal Taxes. This did two things, for the rich to pay more of their money in taxes and keep high tax states from off loading their taxes indirectly to lower tax states.

California has a homeless problem that is incredible and needs to get its prison population numbers down. spending the money to help the poor is a far better solution than funding a rich man's train.
Just the namespace is a bit off: your "Ask HN: " prefix is missing, that's all.
Drive Sonora pass sometime and look "south". So much dead forest. That isn't particularly natural.
I agree with you (though perhaps speed increases become less important after a certain threshold).

I was trying to talk about comfort difference between keyboard layouts anyhow, not the speed difference.

Given the same proficiency level of QWERTY and Dvorak/Colemak, comfort difference would be more noticeable for high intensity / little breaks / long duration activity like typing tests.

Are alternative keyboard layouts significantly more comfortable for practical tasks? I’m skeptical. (Most enthusiasts already agree they aren’t really faster).
This varies. On a multicore CPU it's possible that processes will actually be pinned to a core and those processes will have exclusive access to the CPU core (i.e nothing else will be scheduled on it). Real-time programs tend to avoid syscalls, etc. which cause a context switch so it is indeed possible to run a realtime program indefinitely without the OS stepping in.

It's tricky though because even things like dynamic memory allocation can have non-realtime behavior.
Do you mean what kind of flying work?

> When will enough be enough?

In the general sense, when governments adopt legislation to outlaw employee hostile practices.

Like it has always been, for all of history.

When factories exploded in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, workers were made to suffer and die by capitalists hands for profit by the millions. Decades of suffering later workers fought to get protection in the form of safety regulation, minimum working conditions, paid overtime, and a 40 hour work week.

People seem to have forgotten how much blood was shed to acquire those contemporarily "basic" rights.
The key thing to remember is that EV's are going to keep getting cheaper due to decreases in the battery costs, while ICE's are going to stay the same. From what I have read, the experts think that around 2022-25 EV's are going to equal ICE's for purchase price, and at that point the whole market is going to tip. The only thing slowing down EV sales will be how fast the auto manufacturers can switch over what they produce.
for starcraft 2 they essentially killed the ability for third parties to build any sort of mod community via their crappy battle.net chat/custom games system

You also included information about “constraints” like is it a positive or negative number and string length. That wouldn’t be encoded in the type. Why would I go look up the types either way? I’m using a strongly typed language, the IDE would tell me that anyway. While I am writing code, I see a red dot showing me immediately if I’m using the type incorrectly. Any assumptions that were incorrect, I would get immediate feedback.
Note that the data is still not definitive proof that black holes exist. The observed density is above that of a black hole. If there exists something that prevents black holes from forming, we would not be able to tell.

So despite all the data black holes have still never been observed.

What might prevent a black hole from forming? Time dilation is a top candidate (leading to what's called "frozen stars", or "collapsed stars"). From our POV the black hole never quite forms. (And yes I know, infalling matter sees a black hole - but we don't.)

Other options would be quark degeneracy leading to quark stars (similar to neutron stars). Is that strong enough to stop a black hole? It's unknown.
"Jokes are not allowed on HN. HN is a very serious website."

Then, for the realtime program to run correctly, it would involve as well an understanding of all other processes/programs that are running at potentially the same time (e.g. "competitors" and "collaborators") and/or with the same or higher priorities, etc.., right?

Therefore, candidate summarized definition:

realtime (HW?/)OSs allow you to execute SW which will run with no interruption, as long as no other SW having the same or higher level of priority interferes?

Does it sound right?
