After a long-ish hiatus I picked up a Wii U two years ago for Mario Kart 8 and BOTW. And then last year grabbed a PS4 for Horizon, God of War, Spider-Man, RDR2, Gravity Rush, Uncharted 4, The Last of Us, Journey, and others.

Basically, there are a lot of high quality single player adventures to be had out there, and if you're patient enough to wait 1-2 years after release, you can a) focus on just the good stuff, avoiding duds, and b) snag complete/goty editions for very inexpensive, which will have all the DLC included. See the the price trajectory for Horizon Zero Dawn, for example:

(And yes, I'm a grown-up with three kids; this is gaming done an hour or two at a time a few evenings a week— gone are the days of pre-ordering a new release and then pouring an entire weekend into it when it comes out.)
Of course it’s a religion. People are deluded to think otherwise.
Thanks for the list - would love to see which countries are new-grad friendly as well.
Ask HN: How to Sell a Stolen Laptop?
My girlfriend and I were having dinner in Monterey. We pull into the restaurant’s parking lot at around 720pm. We park have dinner and then around 8:20pm we walk back to our car and the driver side window is smashed in. Her bookbag and mine are both missing. Inside the bags are (at minimum) my dev laptop Lenovo Txxx and hers a MSI Gaming Series that I just got her. They were in such a rush, they missed my phone and wallet that was in the center console, which am I grateful for.

Police show up at 8:45pm. We file a report. As we’re filling out the paperwork, a guy (let’s call him Jim) walks across the street and says “ Hey did you get hit?, so did I..” The thief broke his window also and stole his bag with a laptop.

The police starts to explain that laptop being stolen is popular. As he’s explaining, the restaurant owner is able to get the license plate from the surveillance video, "registered in Oakland..."

3 hours after the incident, we get a call that they found my girlfriends bag, no laptop ofcourse. It kinda helped. Jim’s bag showed up, but his laptop was also gone. Jim had his passwords written on a couple of papers in his bag, they weren’t interested in that for some reason.

This, along with other things the cops were saying paint the thieves as people looking to sell items quickly. The chances of getting my laptops back are less than 5%. The cops seems to think that the top 3 ways to get rid of stolen items is 1. Pawn shops, 2. Craigslist or 3. Facebook.

Finally 2 question for HN.
1. What are other ways to sell stolen laptops? @Dang, my apologies if this is not an appropriate question. If so, please just skip to question #2.

2. What are some ways to track it down? I'm planning to visit some pawn shops, monitor craigslist and Facebook for the laptops, maybe even place a reward?

Your ideas are appreciated.

PS: Mainly, I’m furious with myself because I SHOULD know better.

At $225,000 what was your total compensation and did that include healthcare (which is basically universal at that salary)? If you're earning that much, essentially all of your healthcare costs should be getting covered by your employer, as would be typical (it's typical at half that salary).

I'd also say the converse is true. Corporations spend lot on how to get you to eat their low cost high profit food that is not good for you. Think if we treated junk food like cigarettes in many countries where they had to be in a generic white box and no advertising.

A program which is memory intensive must be slower then one which needs little memory -- just because load/write operations from the CPU take time.

Not if the alternative to reading/writing from RAM is reading writing from disk. One piece of data processing software I used to use had its roots in the early 80s and was very memory efficient. It achieved this by rewriting the input data to disk in a clever way and the reading and writing just the parts it need. I could process gigs of data using only a couple of hundred MBs of RAM. A different, more modern, program I also used would slurp in as much data as it could fit in RAM and then just go from there. It would happily use 30 of the 32 GB or RAM I had every time it ran, but it was also 1-2 orders of magnitude faster.
There was a similar report in qz https://qz.com/1562014/chinas-tech-giants-are-firing-people-... with links (mostly in Chinese) about layoffs in the Chinese tech sector.

The way I am reading it, what the article is getting at is specifically tech unicorns are in trouble, either that they are not making the money they require or getting the investments they once had. Doesn't exactly mean a 'tech doom', but I would say these are worrying signs.
I quite surprised at the comments on HN so far as nobody seems to see the significance of this.
Yes, the image is ambiguous.
The point is that Google Cloud Vision gives an unambiguous answer of that image based on the rotation.
Transformations of an image are regularly used to improve the results of image recognition. That process fails quit dramatically if in the course of a transformation the answer given is presented with higher confidence than should be.
Of course there are redundancy a lot comes from historical facts where due to conquests and other form of migrations one language has become influenced by several. As such you could say that English is not one but rather consists of 3 or four different languages.

So for English it would be rather easy to find this by looking up synonyms originating from France, Germany and even Scandinavia and of course latin.

Wink Partial Outage Continues
Thank you that was a very interesting read. It sounds similar to how I imagined it.

Sometimes I ask myself if this is similar to how blind people visualize their world. I remember reading from Hellen Keller (deaf-blind from birth) that she also had a visual representation of the world around here. Something along the lines of the human brain is just build for this kind of representation.

I think that there is some common underlying representation that everyone uses. When seeing something through the eyes this representation is overlayed with salient visual sensor input in eye fov and our internal fov just focuses on this for convience and because it is so damn salient.
I think it is possible to detach the internal fov from the eye fov and see how the brain models the other regions.

Your suggestions that sensory deprivation brings out the underlying internal representation is very intersting. It makes a lot sense! Really gotta try that sensory deprivation chambers some time =)

Mhm, we really have to work on sustainable air travel. Transport in general, actually.
But they do make it, present tense.
I can't help but feel like this is a strong misinterpretation of the circumstances.

The author tries really hard to make this a woman's issue, but as far as I know the law doesn't lay out different rules for women specifically, just the less-earning spouses that take care of the children, so the same problems exist for husbands that stay at home.
However, women universally tend to not marry "down" when it comes to finances, education, etc., while men do. They also tend to find men without a career to be unambitious, which is generally considered to be an unattractive trait in men for romantic purposes. This is true for poor countries rife with sexism, as well as for rich countries that treat women and men equally. (All of this has been covered by extensive sutdies)
In Japan in particular young women tend to have high expectations of men, because their parents and grandparents had no financial issues during the economic bubble and their mothers and grandmothers did not have to work at all or much. Many Japanese women can't wait to marry in order to start a family and stop working; it's their life goal and they only consider their career to be temporary from the start. This even true for most women who graduate from elite universities in Japan (I saw a study about Tokyo university graduates mentioning this).
So that's why in practice we're talking about mostly women here and I wouldn't blame men for that.

The argument about the time spent on housework also sounds rather weird and insignificant to me, because it mentions a significant gap between men and women, but also mentions that Japanese spend less time on housework in general. 263mins = 4h23m a week is a number that I pull off without trouble as a single man working full-time without the least bit of help from a spouse. The article also doesn't mention whether this number is limited to families with children or the whole population.

The part about bento boxes is just a meme. Women are not considered to be bad mothers if they don't create bento boxes that look like Pikachu and friends.

There are legitimate issues for women working in Japan, some of which we have in other countries, some we don't, but I don't see any of them in this article. All I see is "less-earning spouses (usually women) get too many benefits, that's why the alternative of working isn't attractive enough".
And instead of complaining about beautiful bento boxes, the author should draw attention to serious issues like the incredible lack of kindergarden spots and the like.
It should be noted that this isn't a legal decision.

This is a guideline on how the Dutch DPA sees it, and although it carries some weight the issue won't be settled unless and until a court makes a formal decision.

My 2c is that the Dutch DPA's guideline is wrong and extremely restrictive.

That does not work too well in peak season, I found, and have to remember to keep in mind.
It’s not quite; HTTP/2 is not in fact uniformly superior to HTTP/1.1. Search around and you’ll find the reasons; all I’ll mention here is the two biggest keywords: WebSockets and head-of-line blocking.

The end result is that HTTP/2 is an improvement for most common workloads, but not all; especially in app-type scenarios with lots of mobile users with suboptimal connections and comparatively few requests (e.g. because you already do batching rather than sending zillions of requests), HTTP/2 can regress typical performance.

WebSockets over HTTP/2 is now specified in RFC 8441; not sure what the implementation status of that is. That solves one of the main problems.

My understanding is that HTTP/3 (with UDP-based QUIC instead of TCP) then resolves all remaining known systemic regressions between HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/2. So yeah, HTTP/1.1 to HTTP/3 should be pretty close to “free speed”.

But even then, it changes performance and load characteristics, and requires the appropriate software support, and that means that many users will need to be very careful about the upgrade, so that they don’t break things. So it’s not quite free after all.
I'm of the same mind. There's a reason pilots have to have hundreds of hours of training before they are allowed to fly solo. Adding a third dimension to piloting a small personal vehicle takes every bit of concentration and awareness a human can handle. I definitely don't want to see the average driver next to me every morning and afternoon -- the one making all kinds of bad decisions like running red lights and not looking before merging -- behind the wheel/stick of a flying craft.

I read a few of the books mentioned in the article (Random Walk, Common Sense, Global Value and Asset Allocation) and they certainly dedicate a lot of space to study the history: bubbles, how returns fluctuated over the decades, etc.

Most importantly, the key takeaway of those introductory books is to diversify your portfolio, which, if you do, should limit your losses in events such as those you mention.

Just for people who are new to the Japan Times, I should point out that this article is somehow in the "News" section, not the "Opinion" sections. How they can get away with saying, "If the government really wants to encourage women to work more, it should revoke the tax deduction framework." in a "news" piece without it being a quote, I have no idea, but this is absolutely typical of the Japan Times.

I should also point out that the piece is full of misleading information used to bolster their argument. For example:

"Prior to 2018, a person who made no more than ¥1.03 million a year in income did not have to pay income tax and could be claimed as a dependent on their spouse’s tax return, meaning a deduction of ¥380,000."

This is completely dependent upon the spouse's salary. ¥1.03 million is about $10K, just in case you aren't familiar with the currency. A deduction of ¥380,000 is 38% -- which implies that the marginal tax rate of the spouse is %38 percent. This would be a huge salary for the spouse in Japanese terms.

It's important to understand that personal income tax in Japan is very low. However, you have to pay a fixed 7% for pension and health coverage and another 5-10% for city and prefectural tax (depending on where you live). There are no deductions on pension, city and prefectural tax. Typically if you are paying an overall 30-35% tax rate, your personal income tax rate is only somewhere around 15-20%.

Have a look here and scroll down to the personal tax rates: https://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2206.html A 40% marginal tax rate starts at 18 million yen, or $180K. Yes, not so high in SV, but I don't know anyone where I live that makes this much as a salary.

A more typical marginal tax rate is 15 or 20%.

Like I said, this is typical for Japan Times "news" stories unfortunately. I feel odd saying this because while the piece is terrible, I actually agree with the idea of reducing dependent deductions and the need for more Japanese women to get positions in permanent positions in Japan.

What is "first impression influence" problem?

When a user search for query having multiple subjective answers, he googles it, lands on some question-answer forum (say, Quora), he's going to see most-visited/most-liked/most-commented/most-active answer. And general world population is innocent enough to get influenced by first-impression it sees.This situation worsens for country like India and Pakistan, where technology-penetration is super-fast than eduction-penetration. So a 14 year old boy in remote village now has smartphone and access to Google, but he's never gone to school. He's very much likely to get influenced by first answer he sees for any query (which is very much likely to be a majoritarian viewpoint).

Solution:

Don't show users just one perspective on first-impression. Show him more than one perspective so that his mind is bound to read that and maybe thus reason better.

Some e.g.: Questions might be extreme like "Are muslims good for this world anymore?" and simple like "Which car should I buy in 2019?"

So for these questions, no answer is correct, more than one answer are important enough. So more than one answer should be put at parallel level.
