Sadly, most people are subservient to authority, propaganda, epaulets, etc.

Einstein quote on people:

>Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions that differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions.

It's more than just a trust in rulers. I agree with Einstein. It's a complete subservience to them.
I never said it was a zero sum game. But the discussion was about online spaces.

I agree with you 100% that solving real-world problems like the ones you describe is vitally important, it's just not the topic at hand.
If you isolate everyone the way the modern world does this shouldn’t be surprising.
Serp positions and browser features, like: https://security.googleblog.com/2018/02/a-secure-web-is-here...
Instead of trying to directly control their actions, propose some processes that everyone should be following.

These processes should be based on the values your team is trying to achieve. So, you need agreement on that first.

There is an old saying. If you want to build a product, you must first build the team. Don't skip that team building step. As part of that step, you will come to agreement on the team values. Once you have team values, you will be able to make progress on anything that is out of bounds.
You can almost get a glimpse of the financial health of a company by the number of bullshit messages they send you. The trend is especially important. Just like you i’ve noticed facebook getting spammier and spammier, starting from the middle of last year. Which means things were probably starting to smell funky around that period

The only ways to share without contention that I can think of are:

- Static allocation (e.g. static partitioning of caches, actually exists in some architectures IIRC)

- Some kind of ahead of time scheduling in a "sufficiently smart compiler", but then you can't dynamically run independent threads of execution on the shared resource

You know what else is a contended shared resource in multicore computers? RAM. Space is kind of statically allocated but bandwidth / access / latency is very dynamic. At this point I wouldn't bet that it can't be exploited.
An app containing many services handling individual, separated aspects of the overall app, connected by queues and standard protocols. Many pieces interchangeable with others. If you'd hide the fact that it's e-mail and wrapped a bunch of HTTP/gRPC around it you could easily sell the same architecture to people as "a messenger build on microservice principles".
You're probably not using a desktop CPU with the same wattage. If Apple makes a 40 watt ARM laptop CPU, it might behave similarly to the x86.
Very interested too, to an extend that I'm often torn between Reddit / subreddits when it comes to crowdsourcing knowledge on a specific topic.

How much work would it take to achieve this?

Actually browser compatibility is not getting better, it is getting worse.

I was working for a firm last year that made a system with a browser front end that only supported Chrome and Safari, not Edge or Firefox -- this is happening everywhere, and it is why MS threw in the towel with Edge.
"I've seen this tendency on HN - if this person/entity does something, I suspect it must be bad or selfish."

Companies tend to do things that advance their competitive advantage.

"slander" - really? For "I suspect", followed by a theory that an online ad company might bandwagon something (otherwise good) that helps them for less than altruistic reasons?
Has anyone outside of Porsche witnessed it charging at that rate?
This is like saying a Turing complete language can simulate everything another Turing complete language can. A decent sized idiomatic APL program will be very different from the same Python program only using Numpy, even if the outputs are the same.
Neither do I. I find that tags are "optional" so they aren't used 100% of the time, but you are forced to place your file in a folder somewhere.
For source code I keep a fairly fixed folder hierarchy. I use ~/<company> for work stuff and ~/devel/ for personal projects and experiments.

I know a few people who use tags effectively.
I never found it to work for me either.

On the other hand I find Spotlight to be pretty good at finding stuff. I use It extensively with relatively flat folder structures.

I typically go to the folder I want and then use spotlight to find whateverIm looking for.
It has some promise, however:

* The code generates a number of warnings when compiled with '-Wall -Wpedantic'. Look at IOCCC entries; a number of them take pride in having no warnings whatsoever, even with full warnings enabled.

* The code does not include instructions. Even a 12-line 900 character obfuscated program can include basic usage instructions.

* Most importantly, the code does not work. When I compiled it with GCC on Cygwin (gcc -o zolW zolW.c -lncurses), then ran 'touch foo ; ./zolW foo', I almost immediately got a core dump.

So, yes, this is a good first attempt, but I would like to see this get revised. Fix all compile time warnings; make sure it works with both GCC and CLANG. Add test cases. Add documentation.

Shameless plug: Yes, I have made a small, 900 character 12 line program which does not generate compile-time warnings, does not generate core dumps (even going so far as to fix a core dump which only happened after running the code for over an hour and generating 16 gigabytes of data), has a usage manual, has test cases, and even has basic usage information in the code. So I know it can be done. See https://github.com/samboy/rg32hash/blob/master/C/tinyrg32.md and scroll down for the actual obfuscated C code.
This is a bug in OpenSSL insofar that it allows you to supply invalid values (which are silently truncated); an application being vulnerable still requires the application to be buggy as well.
The first critical point is to classify the caravan. This is something you have to step outside of politics for, for a minute. This caravan had already illegally broken past the border between Guatemala and Mexico. [1] There's every reason to believe they planned to attempt similar behavior at the US border. This is the definition of criminal conspiracy.

In this case it would likely have also been a politically destabilizing event in the US. You would have had far right vigilantes work to 'apprehend' the trespassing individuals which likely would spark 'anti-vigilante' action from far left individuals. Violence would have been inevitable due to the fact you have loonies on both ends meeting up with emotions flaring high. This could have been an organic action, but it could also have been driven by actors who would benefit from such instability.

In any case it would be absolutely remiss for the government to not investigate the funding, composition, and other aspects of the caravan. And on this front the journalists were/are not only witnesses but witnesses with video, photographic, and audio evidence as well as first person accounts. Like the article states, "[The investigators] said that I [journalist] was on the ground and they’re not, which I thought was really interesting.". The really important question is whether the investigation has gone from investigation to intimidation, which would be an issue.

So is the government doing their due diligence, or are they intimidating journalists? Perhaps it's even a bit of both. But I don't think this article is enough evidence to really determine one way or the other and so I think the wisest course of action would be to await further information.

Obama spied on Sharyl Atkinson is pretty well known.
I use MacOS directories as well. The top level directory is the year. The next level down is the major category, i.e. personal, business, church, etc. The next level down is the specific project under that category. I also add the date, in the form yearmonthday (20190307 for example) to the files which keeps them sorted in date order.
The example you gave was overly simplistic for a comparison. It's like doing one test for a benchmark comparison. Go look at Aaron Hsu's Co-Dfns parallel APL compiler and his discussions on HN and YouTube. I don't think you could easily do an R translation that isn't 10x longer.
I think in general you are right but would like to add a caveat. There is a trade-off between accuracy and interpretability within any analysis and usually, it makes sense to bias towards the later. However, it's often worth verifying that the interpretation extrapolates in a relatively unbiased way.
Do you mean slowing down while lowering pitch (without resampling)? If so, you're correct, as you bring harmonics from out of limit of human hearing back and the result sounds natural.

But if you mean just changing the speed of the sound, than you need to change the algorithm you're using. There should be no difference in quality due to sources having different sample rates.
I don't think that anecdote fares well against the many ways in which browser compatibility has improved
Having some more context would be nice, but here's some tips as a web developer.

* Don't save files on the desktop.

* Create a Projects or Dev folder in your home directory and make a folder for each project. (For Web development, I use Laravel Valet which automatically makes a foldername.test vhost inside ~/Dev.)

* My Downloads folder is very messy. I could probably set up a job to delete files older than 6 months, but I have plenty of space, so no need (yet).
This article is a great example of fun and engaging presentation, but alas spoiled by poor writing. The top 3/4 of the article, which explains the question and makes you care about it, is clear and exciting. It's the sort of page you want to show your friends and your kids. But the ending—the explanation of the solution—falls flat. I challenge anyone to reach the end of this article with a clear understanding of what the scientists mentioned in the article actually concluded.

The problem begins with the paragraph, "What’s the link between flying and egg shape? Birds have a streamlined body plan, and—especially in stronger fliers—their organs are squashed and minimized." The paragraphs that follow this one do a poor job of explaining the model. What the author is trying to say, I think, is that the females of strong fliers, because they have narrow bodies, have narrow oviducts and therefore narrow (and pointy) eggs. That hardly seems an earth (or egg) shattering conclusion. But then we have this: "But it also turns out that egg shape is a balance between two pressures..." a sentence I can't find the significance of. And this fun fact: "If you carefully remove the shell from the membrane, an egg will still retain its shape." Does "egg" there refer to the shell, the membrane, or something else? Clearer, I think, would have been: "If you carefully remove the shell from the membrane, the remaining egg even without the shell will still retain its shape." By the end, I'm left with a cracked and mushy solution to a beautiful and pristine problem.

Advertising has shown itself to be a vehicle for malware. Promoting it as something genuine and useful is unethical and short-sighted. Not to mention it doesn't consider the victim here at all.
I saw this, but I was disheartened when I was told by a mechanic not long back that this too is seen as a bit of a joke - in that the cars are tested at idle and the DPF check is cosmetic.

Hoping for sanity, though.
I do all document management with an app called DEVONthink. I’ve been working with digital paper apps for years, and DEVONthink absolutely crushes everything else. I put everything in it, and I sync it between devices using WebDAV via Seafile, which also works to get data offsite in case the house burns down. It’ll do encrypted databases, and it has mobile apps that work great. I scan documents directly into it, tag them, and sometimes link them from multiple folders, which Devon will do without copying them (or I can also copy them if I need to). It has fuzzy search capabilities and automatic OCR that is lightning fast. It’s one of a handful of apps that are always open on my desktop.

Documents aren’t stuffed into some database, either. They’re indexed and stored in a folder hierarchy that you can still access. This makes it easy to search and find them with tools like Alfred or Quicksilver or Spotlight. You can open them directly using apps like Word, and Devon doesn’t care. Devon also has an inbox you can use with Finder, so when you drop a file into the folder, it automatically moves to an Inbox folder in Devon for you to process and move to a final destination within the app.

It’s truly a fantastic piece of software.
I just use Finder and don't worry about it too much.

How do beer sales and alcohol taxes have anything to do with the other things you mentioned? Sunday sales laws have been in effect for 3-4 generations it’s just a way for politicians to get the conservative Christian vote.

Alcohol taxes are a valuable source of revenue for cities. The area I’m moving to is trying to incorporate. The alcohol taxes and restaurant permits will directly fund police, fire, and sanitation. It will allow us to improve services without relying on the county.
I have some experience with Common Lisp, although not too much. I have read Land of Lisp and enjoyed it very much. It may not adhere to software engineering best practices, such as avoiding mutating the global state, etc., but for learning CL without getting bored, this is the book.
As long as it is not much faster and cheaper than x86, there is no reason for me to switch. I think i can't even switch atm.

But i don't mind more competition on the market as long as it doesn't cost me headaches like 'this package doesn't compile on arm' or whatever.
Ug. After closer inspection, it looks like those particular raw pointers seem to be managed by a garbage collector. (Specifically, the "Blink GC" [1].) As others have pointed out, this particular bug may not actually be a C++ issue. (Or at least not a typical one.)

It's terrifying. Free speech should not be infringed upon.

This is obviously happening more and more. High profile cases like journalists and activists caught up in association with Snowden, like Greenwald, Poitras and Lavabit's founder... Are probably known to most here. But I wonder if most are aware even a journalist covering the dakota pipeline protests was detained by the US government(1).

For managing folders that collect cruft, or for doing things like deleting screenshots from the desktop after some period of time, I use Hazel. It’s great for menial maintenance tasks.
Although your power requirements are somewhat overblown, this is one reason that companies like EMotorWerks are developing grid-connected EVSE’s (“Chargers”) that can be centrally controlled to manage load. Ultimately, EV’s will be plugged in for the 20+ hours a day that they aren’t being driven, and the grid will use them as a giant variable load to soak up excess solar and wind power and shed load when everyone turns on the A/C on a hot day.

Lots of plugged EV’s are also the perfect pairing to rooftop solar — in Hawaii, they’ve had to stop people from installing panels on their homes because the neighborhood feeder circuits can’t handle the power being generated by all of the homes. Just redirect that power to the EV in the driveway (or your neighbor’s driveway), problem solved!
This “war” has been going on for nearly two decades.

There’s no credible linkage to even the ridiculously vague definition of the “war” and migrants fleeing repressive regimes in Central America.
And Russia annexed Crimea as a war action that led to arrests, incarcerations and murder of journalists in the opposition. Being at war does not mean you can start controlling your own population and restrict the freedom of the press. Free journalism is one of the pillars of a democratic society. Aren't most of USA wars waged in the name of democracy? Gathering information like what car a journalist drives and the mothers name IMHO cannot be named as a "wartime playbook" scenario, this is a violation of privacy rights. Don't we have Presumption of Innocence as one of the basis of the law?
Just look for Aaron Hsu Co-Dfns on GitHub, talks on YouTube, and on HN...I think his username here is arcfide. Look for his submissions. He's probably 100x better at coding than me and never leaves notepad.

When I was in engineering school an APL programmer friend came over to where I was working and looked at my MATLAB homework. She eventually stated that MATLAB was a very bad APL. She then proceeded to solve my homework in a single line of MATLAB.

The page notifications are infuriating. I'm a co-owner of my mother's business page (barely a business really, almost more of a hobby). She can barely use Facebook and just uses the page for basic communication with a few dozen people but she/we are constantly bombarded by notifications about HOW MANY USERS we could reach AND WHY DON'T YOU BOOST THIS POST. Hey, your customers haven't heard from Facebook in 10 minutes! Why don't you give them another notification!?
Spotlight doesn't work great for me. I have a large number of e-books and documents in my home directory and Spotlight is likely to return the most recently added books even if they are completely irrelevant to the search terms.

Results are a little better, sometimes, if I search specifically in a given folder and especially if the terms are in the filename. But it really should work globally.

I deleted my FB last year and was really concerned, like you were, about offending people. I messaged my then girlfriend "hey I'm deleting fb" just so she'd know. I have friends that while we're not super close we'd talk a few times a week, usually just sending funny jokes. They didn't see me on messenger so they just texted me. They didn't even realize I'd deleted it. One of my closer friends who invites me to her kids birthdays and what not went to send me an invite and made me an evite when she didn't see my account. She was surprised when I told her I just deleted fb.

I realized I really had never gone to anyones actual profile page in maybe a year or two. Hell, the last profile I may have actually taken more than a cursory glance at was my ex when we first started dating. I guess nobody else does either when you can just @them.

With that said I do feel very out of the loop but it's allowed me to focus on my own life and I'm on a social media cleanse (doh, hn) anyway.

Interestingly enough I do keep having feelings about reopening it but I permanently deleted so I can't and I'm glad I did. Prior to that I had temporarily closed it and reopened it a handful of times.
Unfortunately, HN's markdown (or maybe my Firefox's rendering of it) is messing up your beautiful ASCII graphic. I copy/pasted it in my editor and it looks fine. Thank you for taking the trouble to post this.
Cars can't and shouldn't be phased out in rural areas. They're a necessity. And rural living is a necessity for all of society, without it agriculture will die.

So maybe a city-centric approach is the right thing.

I've thought for quite some time about ritual. I've been learning to make lattes for the last month or so, and I'm really enjoying it. For me at least, there's a mindfulness to focusing completely on the task at hand. No thinking about other problems, no worrying about email, and most of the time I turn off the music I'm listening to. And after all of that, I have a tangible result.

I enjoy ritual though. Maybe I just need more mindfulness in my life.

I tend to keep most of my documents in Dropbox or iCloud, and use Alfred to find what I want by typing a word that I think is in the title. Dropbox can search within documents too, and I try to have an organized file structure.

Source code is in a Code directory. I try to keep that directory clean - only stuff I'm actually working on. Everything is in Git and can be pulled down very quickly if I need to spin it up again.

I used to love a document database that was geared for researchers and others who have to catalog a lot of information. It's called DevonThink. I had a license for it from one of the MacHeist bundles, but it was really overkill for my document needs.
