I think it's a US vs Europe thing. Basically everybody I know in Europe who got a PhD (including my wife) had an experience much more similar to yours than what the article describes.
Yet, life expectancy and population figures are growing rapidly in Africa. Cars don't seem to be the dangerous mass-murderers the article suggest. Perhaps the author forgot to mention their benefits and positive impact.
In my experience it is rarely used on the buyside but often uses on the sell-side: most investment banks have atleast a couple people that are using it.
All I can say to that is I hope not.

They claim that, but nobody knows the details.

The deal they offer other car companies may be completely unreasonable, who knows. They would still be correct that they "offered access" though, so it doesn't mean anything.
I just found that there's a Julia package for at least some APL syntax, perhaps an easy way to play. [3] is a fork updated for v1.0:

>Ironically I still write to share my thoughts on something, without photos or shocking videos, and it catcyes my friend's attention because of the "novelty" of writing something of my own instead of just sharing some link.

People stopped making posts about their daily lives, removing the thing that attracted most of us to Facebook to begin with: The possibility of following the life of friends and family, even if we don't have the chance to see and talk to them in real life as often as we would like.

As post by real people have died out, ads, promotions and link spam have taken over and now fill our "news feed", making Facebook less interesting.

If Facebook didn't have private groups, users would be leaving much faster. Still, it's interesting that none of Facebooks strategies seems to revolve around getting people to post more original and personal content.

I quit Facebook last year, and maybe I would have stayed, if they had a feature that would allow me to hide everything not directly posted by friends. Then again, maybe not, it would have left me with very little content.
he's also a trendsetter. What's with Boeing and Blue Origin getting in on the commercial space race. Also he create the market for electric cars with new players like Rivian and old ones like Volvo, and load others I'm sure. Even some big players like Virgin Group jumped in on the Hyperloop thing, although I dont care about this as much.

Other players may create supply, but Elon can create demand. He's in such a unique position, imo.

>"Sidewalk Labs recently offered a glimpse at a handful of high-tech prototypes it hopes to launch. These include hexagonal sidewalks that light up to indicate a change in a street's usage and heat up to reduce ice and snow."

This shit again? And now they have google on the hook too? Am I correct that they've dropped the solar panels from it as well, so they've dropped any pretense of this shit being anything other than an energy sink?

> "Sidewalk Labs formally unveiled plans for Quayside, a new “smart” waterfront neighborhood in Toronto, last April, with the stated goals of conserving energy,"

Yeah, when I think "conserving energy" I think using electricity to melt ice, outside in the winter. What a farce. Godspeed to the CCLA.
Every once in a while some random journalist decides to cry foul about the demise of Google Reader and the death of the Open Web, but the 2013 redesigns of Twitter and Facebook seem more likely to be the cause, both in functionality and policies.

It was very clear cut at the time, Twitter did a 180° and left RSS along with lean HTML and got super slow and noisy (so much for adtech.)
Facebook started changing its appearance compulsively and adding random crap. Then it removed itself from search engines for vendor-lock maxima.
How long has it been working for you before? It seems this was always the case, unless they enabled it recently (and now dropped it again).
Damn, I thought I could afford a decent sports car for me in 10 years :)
I would say that pandas and R can pretty much express everything that APL/J/Q can. They are a lot slower though (than Q atleast, I haven’t used J or APL)
You mean more like the industrial/economic espionage of ECHELON, where various European companies lost billions of dollars?

You mean China is doing something similar to that?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECHELON#Concerns

"In 1999, Enercon, a German company and leading manufacturer of wind energy equipment, developed a breakthrough generator for wind turbines. After applying for a US patent, it had learned that Kenetech, an American rival, had submitted an almost identical patent application shortly before. By the statement of a former NSA employee, it was later discovered that the NSA had secretly intercepted and monitored Enercon's data communications and conference calls and passed information regarding the new generator to Kenetech"

Please tell me the difference again...
I had no idea that the parrot emoji was based on the Kakapo attempting to mate with Mark Carwadine! That's a really funny video, too.

I wasn't so impressed by the TV series, but the original book of Last Chance to See by Douglas Adams is one of my favourite books ever - highly recommended.
Quote about motivations behind J, found in Kenneth E. Iverson's Wikipedia page:

"""

When I retired from paid employment, I turned my attention back to this matter [the use of APL for teaching] and soon concluded that the essential tool required was a dialect of APL that:

• Is available as "shareware", and is inexpensive enough to be acquired by students as well as by schools

• Can be printed on standard printers

• Runs on a wide variety of computers

• Provides the simplicity and the generality of the latest thinking in APL

The result has been J, first reported in [the APL 90 Conference Proceedings]

"""

The Digital Attention Span Economy and Marketing in 2019
The standard home contract in Italy is 3.3kW, at 230V it's less that 15 amps for a resistive load. The meter will allow you to go over the allotted power for some time before disconnecting you though (the amount of time is inversely proportional to how much your going over, and I don't think you can ever go over 4kW).

Heating and stoves are gas based (ovens usually not though); going over the limit is not usual, the only common problem is when using air conditioning in summer which is becoming more widespread, and so are higher power contracts (we're not talking more than 6kW, though).

According to my utility, I consume annually 2660kWh, that is 300W average, much less than the 1.2KW for an American household.

Note that for home contracts the limit (and billing) is on power, not amps, so using inductive or reactive loads will not penalize you.
Thanks.

It's crazy to me that I've had graph theory on university, and many graph algorithms, and I don't remember ever hearing that multiplicating adjacency matrices have this properties.

Maybe I just forgot about it.

You are maybe being downvoted as you stated it so bluntly, but I'm not sure your point is without merit.

The HN audience do not necessarily represent the mean/mode user, and Facebook are in a numbers game really.

I agree with most of the sentiment above - I wish I could filter posts that are just attachments, 3rd party junk, and tune the algorithm to show me posts from a core set of friends, but I also recognise I don't use FB like a most people, I imagine.
It should remind you mostly of how much longer does it takes to recharge rather than refill.
The problem is that 'coin' is not a useful analogy and it makes things hard to understand. Coins don't exist. Only balances do. What you have is a balance (the number of 'coins'), but coins don't have an identity (as they don't exist). What one can track is the transactions.

So if you send (part of) your balance to another account, that can be seen. If that account sends on a similar amount, that also can be tracked. (Even if you split it between multiple accounts by sending to multiples of them.) The only way you can lose sight of the money if goes to an account that has a (relatively) large number of incoming and outgoing transactions. That can be a person actively paying and earning in BTC (and then you caught whoever stole the money) or a mix. It collects incoming transactions from a large number of addressess (accounts) and then sends these out to a large (but differing) number of other addresses. All you see is constant incoming and outgoing transactions of different values, that add up to (almost) 0 over a long period of time. But you won't be able to correlate them (and no coins exist that could have an identity, just balances).

EDIT: Side note - the way actually BTC works, they don't store your balance (as, I think, ETH does), i.e. the balance of an address (account), only the transactions. The balance can be calculated from the sum of all the transactions for that specific address (incoming ones add, outgoing ones subtract from it).
But why Firefox is doing this? What is the reason?
What surprises me about the Google attitude is that it seems to go against one of the basic rules of entrepreneurship: that it's the execution that counts, not the idea. In other words Google seems to throw multiple ideas hoping for some to be successful, but doesn't really seem to put an effort to push them forward despite the initial difficulties. It's a fundamentally insecure attitude: they hope to be blown by the success of something rather than working hard to make it succeed.
...how on earth do you argue that building more increases rent and sound even vaguely plausible?

No thanks. I'll keep using DDG. Planting trees is laudable but free speech is as important to our future as anything.
The actual cost for credit/debit card processing is interchange itself, which averages to ~1% for grocers & about 2% for everyone else if your doing north of $200k a year in volume. High risk industries like cruises, concerts & similar will pay close to 5% (or more), as when the event doesn't pan out, all that cash will need to be refunded.
Isn't it more a case of "you have to do everything right to keep the attackers out, they have millions of attempts and only have to get one right once to beat you".
I love that Gambit system and wish more games would adopt similar systems. The Rules based approach allows complex behavior to emerge from a relatively simple set of rules. Although this is a per-unit approach, in combination with an overarching management AI, this could be very engaging.
Not only tracking them, but putting flags on their passports and interrogating them at the border:

“They asked about the new caravan and if word had gotten out about how difficult it is to seek asylum in the U.S.,” Drehsler said. “Then before I left, the female agent asked if I rented or owned my home.”

This sounds much more like a political intimidation operation than serving a national security purpose.

I have come across quite a few people across top universities in central Europe who quit academia and/or were burnt out after their PhD. In my own experience in Austria support networks are non-existent, and students working under top professors in competitive fields are under an immense amount of stress.

Huawei is the textbook example of how Chinese government own "private". See, for example, http://csis.org/files/publication/130215_competitiveness_Hua...

It is very common to have a "private" company, a party division and government department share a same registration address / contact person in China.

I have a better name for it, "Delta City".

Check out the pop culture classic, RoboCop, which besides being a popcorn chewing action film, contains a rather cynical, but prescient, view on the future of corporations and privatization of public interests.

For those unfamiliar or don't recall, in the film, the mayor signs a deal with the mega-corporation Omni Consumer Products (OCP) will be allowed to turn the run-down sections of Detroit into a high-end utopia called Delta City. Much fun, crime and corruption ensues.

I presume it is because extensions might leak browsing data, which is especially undesirable for private browsing. You can whitelist individual extensions if you trust them, though.

(Note that Chrome does this too.)
UAF are the most common, and the most commonly exploited kind of security bugs in Microsoft products for the last decade [1]. And Microsoft products are way more C++ than C.

For a VFR pilot, flight planning with available wind alofts forecast is very simple with helpful routing to avoid restricted areas, class B airspace, active TFRs, etc.

Single-click flight plan activation (and closing) is also as simple as it can be.
Browsers have been split on this: E.g. Chrome (and I think Edge) requires you to explicitly opt-in each extension for private mode too.

Generally, the reasoning is that private browsing promises to leave as little record as possible of what you do using it, and browser extensions can (not even necessarily maliciously) break that promise. Hiding private windows from extension by default means only those extension the user explicitly allowed access can do that.

Isn't A/B testing pretty much going to behave like a steepest ascent hill climbing? At each micro decision point you take what looks like the 'best' option but that means you can get stuck in local maxima?

Unless there's newer development. Like I said UK/CAN/NZ all waffled withing days of each other around time of article. It could just be theatre to help China save face, maintain trade while nominally soft ban. US declared after that they would not share intelligence with countries with Huawei kit. I don't think there's been development since. Who knows, if US trade deal with China screws over Five Eye allies - speculation that China is directing money from Canada canola oil, Australia coal to US coal and agriculture - maybe allies with be frustrated enough for the program to collapse.
I wonder if they even do their A/B testing right. In my experience (none at facebook) accidental p-hacking is rampant in the tech industry, with trials being cut short or prolonged by the tester who's staring at a graph of the results in real time.
I really don't understand the logic behind this article. First you test two chips one trimmed for sustained loads and then one trimmed for short bursts. You pick tests that prioritize short bursts and do not require cooling which then of course result in similar performance numbers. The gap in power/cooling requirements is then considered impressive but then you turn around and extrapolate how much faster or better the ARM chip could be if it had the same level of cooling as the desktop chip. Except this completely defies the logic in the first part of the paragraph that the power and cooling do not affect the performance in the short burst tests. Those ARM chips won't get faster, they will just have the same speed as they have today.
The site is dead (for me) but I guess it is "just" about IPv4 and there is something I learned about IPv4 notation that has been hidden for me for the last 30 years:

It's the same when people share only their bright moments in social media and you begin to think that you're missing something in your miserable daily routine. While in reality you just see exclusively bright moments and nothing behind the scenes.
Everyone works on commission. If you don’t believe me, try not showing up for a few days. An employee’s stable, dependable paycheck is a comforting illusion. When hungry diners abandon a certain restaurant, the cook finds herself unemployed.

Not sure whether you intended to use scare quotes around risk or asterisks for emphasis. The entrepreneur’s role is coordinating present production with future demand and placing real-money bets accordingly. That’s no freebie.
Things that surprised me in go
Yes. In the first place, BTC are divisible to eight decimal places, so there would be a lot of these IDs if they were to exist. And there's no reason the divisibility can't change in the future, so these IDs would have to be quite complicated.

A (non-coinbase) transaction is valid if its inputs equal its outputs, and if its inputs come from the outputs of other transactions, which in turn are valid if their inputs come from other transactions, all the way to one or more coinbase transactions. This is sufficient to demonstrate that the transaction is valid - ie it's using coins that exist instead of creating them from thin air. That is all that the protocol cares about.
The only reason I still have a facebook account is because a friend at the W3C posts interesting stuff there. (Ironically, once of his recurring issues is that we need to take the internet back from the big corporations, yet he's the one keeping me at Facebook.) As soon as he leaves, I will leave too.

A couple of years ago, friends lived abroad for 3 years and used Facebook as their primary means of communication with people back home. I think that was when I started to check Facebook more often. Sometimes every week.
That sounds great, those first two would be really for me.
As each generation grows up more and more ingrained with the use of a car the likelihood of this happening decreases. Governments would be too frightened to take this away.

My father was the first person in his extended family to own a car, around 60 years ago. Car travel was a luxury. My mother used to go on holiday via train, something that is almost unheard of now in the UK.

At my children's school parents would rather spend the best part of an hour queuing for a car parking space, then queuing to get out of car park rather than go to the effort of walking in much less time.

People seem to be prepared to put up with the madness rather than walk / use public transport.

There are plenty of articles comparing Rust and Go. Easy to find.

When it comes to Go itself, You have both those pros listed in this article and repeated everywhere, and these cons listed in Reddit and again repeated everywhere. In my opinion cons will weight more and becomes annoying when you are working on a large projects/code-base, Otherwise for smaller projects you don't notice them much and performance and goroutines are the main reasons for MOST not ALL projects choosing Go over Python or Ruby in that scale.

I assume it is 0day irrespective of who discovered it. It remains 0day until an action is taken to mitigate it. So you have 0day exploits being traded on various markets - those are exploits which are known to certain groups, but the affected party hasn't yet taken action to mitigate them (most likely because they don't know).
