Bomb threats are illegal. Creepy comments are not.

This may be an awkward position to take in public, but I'm not comfortable with the idea of criminalizing "creepy comments", especially on the internet.
Both a usability nightmare and a sanity nightmare. The content of the comments there is about as bad as facebook's. To be honest if they removed the ability to comment then nothing of value would be lost.
No, its pretty obvious to recognize a zebra using a neural net (e.g. resnet)
It reminds me of kurt cobain's assessment of those who saw child pornography on the cover of Nevermind: if you see this as sexually suggestive, then you are the pedophile.
I use this regularly, the problem I have is that it doesn't give you any suggestions to be 'less unique' - things like suggesting a similar User Agent to yours, but one that is much more common, or even something as simple as linking to things like Canvas Defender for Firefox, which adds random noise to hidden canvas invocations so that your canvas render isn't identifiable.
I have an even snarkier reply, but I'm going to drop it. You're barking up the wrong tree here, this is not really appropriate commenting behavior on Hacker News. I really recommend reading https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html - accusing a benign article about swimming pools of being racist and then disregarding my comments because of my race (and assuming my race) isn't really appropriate. If you disagree with my comment, reply to the contents of it, rather than my skin color.
Well, that makes sense if you want to squeeze the last bit of performance out of highly optimized code.

However, there's a case to be made that, in order to utilize our hardware better, we should be using vector units much more often. To make that feasible, we need a good programming paradigm that doesn't have to be rewritten for a different architecture. If that ends up not utilizing the hardware perfectly, that's okay: using a 256-bit vector unit even at 50% of the potential performance is still many times faster than scalar code.
Well, I'm not sure what you consider obvious or not, but those are the most important ones.

From Wikipedia, some other examples are the right to be considered for federal employment (most Federal Government jobs being closed to non-citizens), access to US consular officials if arrested abroad, and exemption from certain real estate taxes[1].

I don't think an iframe works well for the purpose of embedding universally."

Why does there need to be an iframe? Why couldn't there just be a "click here for comments" link which takes you to a separate page?

"I think that would be more resource intensive and more difficult to cache"

That might be a concern for sites that get lots of traffic, but probably for most blogs it will not be a concern at all, as the comments they will get a are few.
Problems and solutions have a relationship that is many to many.

A problem may or may not have a solution or many solutions. And solutions have a relationship not just to the problem they solve but also the problem or problems they create.

This fundamental meta-problem is a problem to which there is no solution. This is why we argue. This is why we fight. This... is why we politick.
They only throw the games when it is important.

1993 Game 7 WC Finals Suns had 64 free throw attempts. But it was important for the Suns to win because Chicago had won the East the day before and Barkley v. Jordan just had to happen.

> I have recently been labeled a “brilliant jerk”

Nobody's ever come right out and labelled me that way, but I suspect there are at least a few people in my past who probably would describe me that way (they'd probably backtrack and say, "well, he wasn't all that brilliant - he just knew a lot of stuff is all. But boy was he a jerk!"). Not all, not even most, but at least some. Like I said, this could all be in my head, but I don't think so - see, I've had co-workers who really didn't know how to do their job, and basically demanded my help. I'm not talking about interns who I was in charge of training, I'm talking about people with 10 years experience who had the same title, benefits and perks as I had. And they were completely incompetent. I have to work hard to keep my patience with those people, and I usually give them hints as to what to do (have you tried loading it in a debugger? Have you checked to make sure you're pointed at the right database?), but yeah, I have some disdain for these people and in spite of my best efforts to hide it, they sometimes seem to pick up on it. What's unfair about the "brilliant jerk" label (or the "competent jerk" to be less self-aggrandizing) is that the more competent you are, the more likely you're going to get the label, no matter what you do.
It is very safe as long as people have lane discipline. Which is to say slow drivers keep the fuck to the right.

See Germany for examples.

Unfortunately here in America a lot of slow shitheads have an entitlement complex and think that anyone who wants to go faster than them is evil.
Ask HN: What Is the Most Complete Web App Framework?
Is there a web framework that has things like login/logout, user profile management, Stripe payments with plan upgrades and transactional email all built in and easy to configure? Am I asking too much?
To put this in perspectives I paid around 2k for my German driver’s license and had a 8 week course including theory and practical lessons. In contrast, the American one was 80 bucks or so? No lessons, just the tests
How to Host a High Fidelity Social VR Server for $300/Year on Google Cloud

Worked in Santa Monica Studio, and was sent to Tokyo several times. Each trip was in the $8K range, as each trip was for weeks at a time. Their slow payback was killing me.
The sad but inevitable movement from open web to a balkanised web. Much of human interaction, both good and bad, have moved into closed facebook groups, discord, wechat and telegram channels beyond the reach of the search engines. Youtube just happens to exist in the present twilight zone between the old internet and new internet.

To me, the seminal event marking the transition has to be IMDB shutting its forums. Public discussion and discourse is now seen more as a liability than something of value.
This is because the Constitution is supposed to be an enumeration of what the government is allowed to do.

This is simply not true. The Founders lived through the Articles of Confederation, in which the founding document explicitly enumerated the only powers the government would have. The Constitution was an explicit rejection of that philosophy, and was intended to create a government with broad powers. The point of the Bill of Rights was to place limits on those broad powers.

Unfortunately, Commerce Clause abuse and the effective neutralization of the 10th Amendment has created the opposite situation where the government can do anything it wants as long as it isn't specifically prohibited, and citizens are only guaranteed rights if they are specified.

This is also not true. A great many of the Founders considered the 10th Amendment to be meaningless fluff added only to mollify the slave-owners who wanted restrictions on the Federal government's ability to curtail their ownership of slaves.
Lets be specific. My first question -- so, 12 y.o. girl being dressed in police uniform and acting like in an opening of a cheesy porn movie is your definition of "just kids having fun"?

Worse is making children work so they can earn money as influencers. Don't see G lifting a finger there.
Maybe. Rewriting large and complicated code bases can itself introduce bugs however. Incremental improvements is a possibility, but they probably don't have the man power.
Agreed, although I would hesitate to call the PBE functional a “first principles” model.
To submit a comment, you could be sent to the 3rd-party commenting service, which requires a decision by user to enter comment into 3rd-party site. That site then connects to your private source code repo, generates the updated file and pushes it to S3. If your site is hosted on github, the commenting service could submit a PR to your repo, which would automatically update the site after the PR comment is merged.
It also seems like people are downloading these videos from their creators' channels and then reposting them under their own accounts.
Comments that cross the line into "grooming" are definitely on the continuum of child abuse, which is illegal.
Imagine that a person was trying to explain to you how we knew that galaxies and so on were a certain distance away. They show that we know how to figure out Standard Candles and luminosity etc etc etc. They also claim, at the very end, to say that the earth is flat. They don't mean the universe is flat. They mean the earth is flat.

Now, imagine you haven't read the article, somebody comments, "This guy said the earth is flat!" and you ctrl+f into the article and they did, in fact, write that. Should you be encouraged to read the article? They have some secular studies and ideas.
It's not the videos, it's the comments, and the suggestions pushing the commentors to other similar videos with similar comments.

Comments like, from "predator133," "@2:33 is what we call came here for," linking to a part of a video where a child is doing the splits or something.
Reminds me of a website I came across years ago where you had to tell a paedophile from a computer science professor. It really was sometimes quite different to tell.
This is an interesting viewpoint, thank you for taking the time to outline it.

I do very much appreciate the premise of being free to try different approaches within the framework of capitalism.

However all these approaches compete with actors who do not comply to good behavior and often use highly predatory tactics both internally and toward competitors.

Also, capitalism fails to account for external factors. Selling gas pollutes everyone’s air for free. Producing billions of plastic bags and bottles affects everyone’s oceans and rivers and surroundings, for free. Maximizing exploitation and squeezing one’s workers in an employer’s market creates dangerous levels of equality, chronic diseases and destroys families, for free. Extracting and exploiting attention from a full generation of children will cripple said generation in unpredictable ways, and is still allowed, for free. Same with the destruction of privacy, worldwide.

Capitalism is good at extracting and turning resources into money. It is not good in a world of limited resources.

And I’m not even mentioning the acts of lobbying and collusion which allow corporate entities to change the environment to suit them better than it does living human beings, not unlike a colonizing force.
Is it common to trust third parties with your trade secrets?

I guess if the alternative is that the thing doesn't get done at all then what choice do you have. Still, is this a common thing?
I disagreed with the central thesis, that dystopia necessarily arises from utopian visions. There are lots of dystopian settings throughout the last century that defy this - 1984, waterworld and mad max to name a few. For the author to go on to use this invented meaning as a counterargument to Trump's America being dystopian is disingenuous at best. I wouldn't call it a dystopia myself, but I'd hope to have better grounds for that than inventing meanings.
> Why was this guy using drugs starting at age ten? What led up to that? Shouldn't it be classified as a parenting failure, not a "disorder" on his part?

"So you say your father broke your arm.... This isn't a bone fracture! It's bad parenting, now go home, no medical attention for you".

You are looking to see if some mental/physiological process is in disorder, so it's not about whether you caused it or your father caused it. The question to ask is does the patient fit in box X, because we have scientific studies saying that a large number of patients in box X when given treatment Y move to box Z, which is classified as being better than X.
$75M in 2009. So no, not remotely.
Plain Old Graphs That Solve Your Problems
It's also safer because the grade and turns are carefully crafted, the surface is maintained very well, and wildlife crossing is taken into consideration. You can't really say that of most US Highways.
Granted, the reasoning is fairly dubious, comparing the two emissions side by side would obviously render the reasoning that higher speeds create fewer greenhouse gases false. But having said that, the opposite isn't actually that "green" either, reducing every vehicle despite its optimal torque range to certain speed limits isn't an instant reduction to carbon production since you will generate more of it by running a lower powered engine at higher rpm's than it was designed to run optimally.

So you can't make an absolute statement in either way actually. You can only adjust to the vehicle base in use currently if you want to optimize efficiency, speed, fuel consumption and emissions.
I meant with regards for reference for landings, although I imagine a drone could look around, it’s far larger than a fly.
Comments on youtube are far far worse than on facebook, imo. Hit up any tow truck channel and you'll see overt, unhindered racism, for hundreds of comments.
Faster, or quicker? And "on average" depends on what population you're averaging. There are things arguably describable as "electric cars" that don't even go highway speed.
All languages that have been around a while have warts. One learns to work around the rough spots.
>local reports indicate the lanes would run from Stockton to Bakersfield, a distance of approximately 240 miles via I-5 or 230 miles via CA-99.

I've driven these probably 30 times each. The standard minimum speed there in the daytime is already 80-90 mph in the fast lane.

Getting stuck behind some asshole who actually goes the speed limit in the fast lane isn't just annoying (it can add an hour to an SF => LA trip), it's also dangerous. It encourages people to pass by dodging and weaving through the line of much slower semi trucks in the slow lane. Also, CHP likes to hide under overpasses to hand out tickets, so people tend to slow down before them and then speed up again after them.

All these lane changes and speed changes are much, much likelier to cause accidents than high speed is. The road would be a lot safer if people in the fast lane were encouraged to all drive at the same high speed. This bill is a fantastic idea.
> nation state identity is equally as arbitrary and artificial as a continent identity.

It's not though. A person in Stockholm has lot more in common with a person in Malmo than he does with a person in Sofia.

Nation-states spring from a collection of ethnically similar tribes in proximity. In most cases the tribes volunteer to be a part of a nation (those that don't end up creating new nations or separatist movements).

It may be 'artificial' but it's certainly not arbitrary.
The opposite: The high intensity CPAP was treating the disorder.

I was rather scared at the time, as my CPAP was almost up to the level of the patients. (I got surgery shortly afterwards.)

But I will admit this: There was one time, prior to my CPAP, where I had trouble knowing if a memory came from a dream or real life. Makes me wonder if some mental disorders are just about having difficulty differentiating between dream state and awake.
Sure, you have to have something that is reasonably high quality for marketing to work, for many products.
Seems like the algorithm considered his baggy eye pockets as the bottom rim of a pair of eye glasses.
As much as I'm not a fan of "big govt" in many cases, I hope there is legislation that prohibits parents from sharing photos, videos, etc. of their kids publicly (e.g. a public IG account, a public YT channel) without consent (e.g. meaning the child would have to be of an age where they can even legally give consent).

Children have the right to privacy, and it is crazy how many parents do not think twice before sharing.
Machine Learning Algorithm Created for Finding Sports Players
YouTube is an amazing library, but you must absolutely know what you're looking for.

The search algorithms have been cleaned up a bit in the last year, e.g., a search of "is the earth round" now pulls up a majority of actual astronomy vids debunking flat earth, but still serious junk in the top 10. But a year or two ago, it was 80%+ junk. Similar for Chemtrails. So they're making progress on the fake news.

But the autoplay and recommendations just run off the rails in a hurry. These should just be shut down until they can put enough intelligence behind them to actually keep making sense (i.e., a very long time).

But unlikely to happen, since autoplay generates more eyeball-seconds, and the costs of bad wormholes are external to Alphabet . . .
Pete & Pete is an absolutely fantastic and deeply strange show. Many lazy summer days of my childhood were spent trying to re-create some of the things I saw on it. It's an eternal favorite.

In the morning is optimal in terms of improving sleep. The alcohol will be largely out of your system before you sleep.
It's going pretty well actually. I originally had three different plans with feature-walls, but I hated doing that, so I just freed it all up under one umbrella. Stripe dashboard tells me the average subscription is around what Disqus charges ($9), so I think it's a good idea overall. I definitely recommend it. In my mind, if I see a product using a similar pricing, I feel more valued because I'm given a choice. But that's just me.

I do have a custom option for enterprises because their needs are always unique. I usually charge much higher for this (also comes with a much larger pageview count monthly).
Thank you! I couldn’t manage to do GitHub stuff within eww too effectively (and eww is at best a hack).
Per California law the speed limit is supposed to be set at the 85th percentile of speed as measured by a traffic engineering study (operating speed), not the rate of travel the roadway was designed for (design speed).

The idea behind the law is that the majority of people are lawful, and that we are in fact "voting" for the right speed to be set by traveling at that rate.

Rather than creating lanes with no speed limit, we just need to force Caltrans and local municipalities to enforce this standard.
What I don't get is why the fringe community even exists - is there that large of a market of people with porn websites blocked, but youtube not blocked?
No. For the EU parliament you vote for a representative (from your country, that usually belongs to some political party).
Hey, you can have 7-bit lookup tables at the byte level on AVX512VBMI (using the 2-register shuffle forms) and you can already have 6-bit lookups with 2-register 16-bit shuffles if you can play around on Skylake Server.

Mass availability of the VBMI goodies looks to be bottlenecked behind Icelake/Sunny Cove, so you'll have plenty of time to think through the implications of fast 6-bit lookup. :-)
> Corporations are not people,

Corporations are exactly didtinxt legal persons and that's the central point of incorporation.

> the Supreme Court has never found that they are

It has, in fact, found that they are legally persons and that is the whole point of corporations (though the first cases to do so use the term “individuality” for what a modern writer might term “personhood”.) Key early cases include Trustees of Dartmouth College v. Woodward, 17 U.S. 518 (1819); Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts v. Town of Pawlet 21 U.S. 464 (1823); and Providence Bank v. Billings, 29 U.S. 514 (1830).

But, beyond these early cases using language that might be mistaken by a modern reader, in Pembina Consolidated Silver Mining Co. v. Pennsylvania, 125 U.S. 181 (1888), the court, in addressing the 14th amendment, found that “[u]nder the designation of ‘person’ there is no doubt that a private corporation is included.”
It's not too bad for videos with a smaller (<100k) viewer count or just not of general interest. The comment system seems to cope well and people who comment by this stage is usually interested in tje topic and have something constructive to say.

Once the number of comments reach a tipping point it's the time to bail out.
Yes, there is. I have had mine tested as I altered my diet to include more fish roe, fish liver, and fatty fish. I took my omega6:omega3 ratio from 3.5:1 to 1.5:1 in ~3 months.

Total O3: 10.2% -> 16.5%

DPA: 1.2% -> 3.2%

EPA: 3.4% -> 4.3%

DHA: 5.4% -> 9.2%

I don't have a "before" on the standard american diet, but IIRC the average american has an omega6:3 ratio of about 15-20:1.
I would go, for sure, for Rails. Highly modulable and with a great community.
I have no degree in statistics. But I know for sure that any statistics is just meaningless numbers if you have no hypothesis behind it. At the same time the only method to deal with single observation I know is bayesian statistics. As I understand this statistics have an answer "observation of Oumuamua raises probability that there are many objects like this in the interstellar space".

We can suggest that there are N classes of objects in space, we picked one at random, and it happens to be Oumuamua belonging to the class of Oumuamua-like. To one of N classes. The more some class is common, the more probability for us to see element from this class. Here we can use Bayes' theorem and conclude that the fact of observation of Oumuamua is a weak evidence that the class of Oumuamua-like is more common in the interstellar space than any other class.

It is a weak evidence, and I dont know how much is it. But the point is this evidence points to an ordinariness of objects like Oumuamua not to a rareness.
That just suggests disposable income is a zero sum game. Within GDP you can have massive disparities in value generated.
Yeah at first I did this as a fun sideproject a fun way of doing something of absolutely no use to anybody. Then I thought of accessibility issues, now my focus is somewhat on VR, where I envision that keyboards will break the immersion and pointing and moving a pointer on a virtual keyboard would be fun for consumer tasks, but for actual work say programming and whatnot it simply doesn't cut it.
I guess when I talked about rights I was really thinking about protections from the government rather than about liberties or privileges like serving in or voting for the government -- like the one against excessive fines that was mentioned.

Only downside is you're limited to 4g, but that's not the end of the world.

Low update rate, but workaround-able with a IMU. A simple micro, accelerometer, gyro, and you're in business. Pulse jets can get stupid cheap -- there's not much more to them than sheet metal.

Frame is easy enough to fabricate -- Fusion360 will even simulate your aerodynamics for you.

This thing could be built for waaaay less than $5k; Probably buildable for < $1500, depending on what kind of explosives you load into it -- I have no idea how much those are. It's also well within the range of a hobbyist. Any sort of organized group should have no problem, assuming they can round up an electrical engineer and a machinist.
