Then we don't see it for a while until the type list is refreshed; that's the up-to-dateness case that is sacrificed.

If it's an alternative to ALL being rendered inoperative (and someone else is already taking responsibility for that extreme measure), I might have a lot of leeway that adds up to "try it and whatever the hell happens, happens".

It should still be the best hash function for large data digests. The prev. version was already the best for this use case. Interesting is the new property for smaller keys (this was the weak point in xxhash), and the extended tests.

http://ncri.io/about-us/

The Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) deploys machine learning tools to expose hate on digital social networks within a cross-platform, public-minded, and global framework. We are a multidisciplinary group of scientists and engineers who apply our technical skills to further public insight into the problem of online hate. We examine how hateful images and language grow within and between Web communities and how the infection of hate spreads between the online and the real world.

The condition of hate afflicts our capacity to see ourselves clearly, speak plainly to one another, and to assume collective and personal responsibility for our conditions.
So, you judge/don't go to a whole country because of what its politicians say?

The USA's president has been saying a lot of questionable things, but I don't see anyone fleeing SF..?
I agree with the other commenter that you need to avoid distributive negotiation on one scale (% ownership or price) because its outcome is inherently zero-sum. One way to resolve this, in addition to getting competing offers, is to add other elements into the negotiation so you’re no longer are negotiating on this one vector anymore. Try increasing liquidation preferences (or anything else that the invesor values more than you do) for example in exchange for the 1% percent. This way you end up with an integrative outcome: win-win situation.
There are many great developers and communities (co-working spaces, meetup groups) in NZ in my experience.

I’ve worked with several developers from there (I’m in Australia), and they’ve all been very capable and great to work with.

Due to its lifestyle and culture, NZ attracts/keeps the kinds of people who care about interesting tech and worthwhile projects, rather than raw dollars.

Local salaries may be lower but cost of living is lower and work-life balance is likely to be better.

But timezone proximity to California and eastern Australia means you could seek remote work with bigger foreign companies that may pay better.
It sounds like the person described in the article consumed a lot of calories from sugary drinks (gatorade and fruit juice are both mentioned).

Considering that sugary drinks tend to have very low effects on satiety, it's not surprising he was hungry all the time.

Many of the effective non-calorie-counting diets have turned out to just be good ways to reduce calorie intake.
For me "freedom of choice" argument always seemed completely philosophical with no practical implications. But still, philosophical arguments are fun.
More specifically you need to be unique to gather critical mass. It doesn't just help being cheap, you have to cheap and something else that puts you a head of a lot of other similar places that are also cheap. And it has to be different enough that it is worth the extra effort. It can't just be, say, relatively easy to for example find an apartment, it has to be significantly easier so that it is an actual advantage. There have been a bunch of Swedes moving to Berlin the last 10 years, with SoundCloud being the most prominent example.

I'm becoming increasingly convinced that the frustrations found in programming teams are largely because the industry wrongly selects foremost for programming skills and not for people skills.

Being a good coder is like 30% of your job. The rest is being a good teammate, which is about diplomacy and communication.

My favourite co-workers today and in the past would almost certainly never get a FANG interview but damn do they have the passion to do well and work together.

Just my experience.
Nope. The fastest crc code now uses the intrinsics and some parallel execution tricks, see crclib from Cloudflare.
The guy you pay with the millions of dollars saved.
Even if true, this will largely not affect a business like this. They make small money on each company and scale through the shear number of total companies that pay a few thousand dollars a month to use this service. People are not going to stop going on call because their revenue dropped 20%...

Wow, this is such a boring idea
Working on it tomorrow. This just got in today. I expect xxh3 to beat everybody on long keys, and because it uses optimized intrinsics it should be close to the optimized th1a variants. wyhash is purely portable code.
Ask HN: Am I wrong when manager forgets what she said?
I was assigned a ticket to write a program for the system. I asked my manager whether I could write in my favorite programming language (so that I could finish that as soon as possible). She said it's ok. Then I spent quite a lot of time to understand how to interact with other systems to write the tool, and it finally worked. I prepared a demo, I'm proud of that.

Somehow the language issue came up. Some member in the team said I shouldn't have written that in that X language, because no one could maintain it. In the demo session, I couldn't remember if anyone looked at what the tool could do and/or the requirements of the actual problem, because it's all about writing the tool in another language. I said it's ok to rewrite, even in shell scripts, and I tried to explain that the language doesn't really matter, as the interface is still the same when agreed, I suggested the team to use the current tool while another one is being written. (But...)

I think it's unfair because I did follow the manager agreement. But it's ok, I did rewrite the tool in the language Z.

My question is that whether it's my mistake when the manager changed his requirement (without admitting that.) I hadn't got this kind of issue before this time. Did that happen to you too? How do you talk with the manager?

Thanks a lot

Yes, it’s more expensive with a family. The cheapest health insurance from Obamacare was $15K/year, with a $14K decidable. I live in a 2,500 sqft 3-bed townhouse and all housing costs are $64K/year (mortgage, HOA, and insurance). Then I have another $5K for life, disability, umbrella, and auto insurance.
I think the US makes its stance abundantly clear: it's fine with crimes committed by governments, government officials, or in the name of a government. It's not fine with persecuting those crimes.

There's honestly no other way to read this as far as I can tell.
How does one know when an account is "employer active"?
I have rentals and it’s just a switch from eating the fee to passing it along to you. This is why most landlords still require paper checks, depositing them is free.

The % based fees don’t make sense on large payments. Retailers pass it along too but it’s baked in the price.

One tip I tell everyone, ask for a cash price when getting quotes. Contractors, etc especially. You might save 3% on Fees or 30% because he’s not going to report it.

Thermodynamics can only be invoked when we know enough about the systems involved to make effective decisions.

Our present knowledge of how food is turned into both used and stored energy is extremely rudimentary... there's a ton of chemical processes occurring, all with various different levels of efficiencies and failsafes.

Take two humans of identical weight. Now feed them exactly the same thing. I guarantee you will not have the same outcome for both.

We are not at a place in science where human bodies are like car engines. We don't know how fuel gets combusted. We don't even know how to tell if someone is a 4-cylinder or a V8.

So, given that the user manual is basically a blank page-- how can you just claim user error? That is a gross exaggeration that trivializes the plight of many.

That's true for people who are only slightly overweight. If you're obese or close to it 2lb / week is easy because the amount you have to eat just to maintain your current weight is ludicrous.
Good question, probably not. One other idea I had was a little light sensing pebble that acts like a dash button. When it is exposed in your pile of goods it adds it to your shopping list for approval.
At least on iOS, ads that you opt to watch may be unskippable, but ads that the app foists on you should be skippable after 5 seconds with a >> or X button.

That said; there are a lot of ads that violate the rules and hide buttons or even crash in such a way as to make closing the app the only option other than installing the advertised game/app.
I noticed the same thing. After consuming a soda a day for even just a few days I start to crave it. But if I stop drinking soda altogether, within a week the cravings go away, and I'm just as happy with water.
While I completely agree YC is providing valuable advice, I do not find your argument convincing. It reminds me of realtors supposedly being aligned with home owners because they make more for a higher sale price, which is true but it's completely ignoring effort. The homeowner has a much higher incentive to put more effort into selling the home for the right price, whereas the realtor has much more incentive to sell it faster.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbFkw_roJqI

This is not a perfect analogy for investors and founders, but it is an example where supposedly incentives are aligned but in reality they might not be. What's best for the investor is not necessarily what's best for the founder.

But again, in this case I do agree that YC is providing useful advice.
> My go-to recommendation for people trying to lose weight is eliminate all sugar and simple/starchy carbohydrates and start a fairly light exercise program. This will have a marked impact on appetite, and most people will naturally start losing weight. If weight loss stalls, start playing around with meal portions and feeding windows.

When I did something similar, it worked great for a while, but rather than the weight loss stalling, I started gaining weight. If I don't severely portion control basically everything except green vegetables, I gain weight.

I should note that this was just once I reached my mid 30s that this became an issue; prior to that an so long as I exercised regularly, my appetite and my weight were better matched.

Yes but this is done at compile-time, not runtime, isn't it?

There are several large ones in Sunnyvale and San Jose, too. But even mobile homes are expensive in Silicon Valley by the standards of most other places; at this point, $150K would be a steal, and prices approaching $300K aren't uncommon -- and monthly land rental fees in the park can easily be more than the mortgage. (For instance, a listing I just pulled up on Zillow is a reasonable-ish $155K for a 3br/2ba manufactured home in Sunnyvale, for an estimated mortgage of just over $600 a month...and a rental fee of another $1600 a month.)

I'm not sure how much of what I have seen is reflective of global or even national trends, but here's what I think.

The cargo cult of pseudo-agile development is strong here. You will have long tedious meetings to discuss things that have no tangible link to anything that you're working on. Then you'll do it again tomorrow.

There're management hierarchies, but no real technical hierarchies. Ascendancy to higher technical positions requires the go-ahead from people who don't understand what people in technical positions actually do.

The point of the parent comment is to illustrate that there is in fact no evidence to support the claim that hip hop makes food taste better.

The existence of a theoretical mechanism by which hip hop could impact cheese flavor, possibly making a better or possibly making it worse, doesn't change the fact that there is no meaningful evidence.

One of the main things that attracts me to non-mainstream languages is that they offer a chance to build some of the kinds of things I like to build for fun, without a bunch of killjoys nagging me about how $language already has $library.

Granted, there are still killjoys who want to nag about how $language isn't on the TIOBE index, but they're usually easier to ignore.

ATS did beat C++ in the benchmark game. Plus it's a much safer language, with proper contracts and a proper typesystem. It's more comparable to ADA/Spark (just a more C like syntax, not Pascal), than Coq/Agda or any JS based language.
I repeated the experiment with 200 000 lines of code, where each line contains an assigment (just a constant) followed by a print statement (printf / std::cout). Results on my Macbook Air are similar:

$ time g++ cpp.cpp
real 2m28,454s
$ time gcc c.c
real 0m7,112s

Compilers are indeed really slow.
Has it actually been mapped thoroughly? Is there actually a common language/terminology across Ruby, Python, Lisp, Javascript, Go, C++, etc?

I've noticed that terms & definitions subtly or not-so-subtly vary from programming language to programming language, so I imagine it's pretty tricky to come to any sort of consensus.
I'm not sure this makes any kind of sense actually. My girlfriend, who is a biologist and works at a waste water treatment plant, tells me the ammonia from (cow out any other kind of) urine isn't really that much of a problem. There are other components that might be (mostly residues from various medicines, but those are hard to separate from the water) but according to her, ammonia is essentially less of a problem than the erosion caused by the cows walking on the ground in most cases.

I don't find this particularly interesting. There are far too many other potential factors in an individual's health. Studies tell us about populations, not individuals.

I like this idea, and good luck! Just wanted to give some input on this as I currently work on an ML project at Amazon. The more context possible from the user to define the space at the very beginning will increase accuracy exponentially (at the risk of a too much effort required for user onboarding). Finding that balance is important. Additionally, the user feedback is very important as well. incorporating a way to say yes a shipment came at the wrong time, or no it didn't will also improve model development. However both experiences should be lightweight and seamless - good luck!
I think the housing market indicates a net inflow of engineer types:

(1) There are actually still some low income people living in the Bay Area. For example even in Mt View (home of Google), there are some low income areas. Other cities have them too. The low income people are continuously being displaced by higher earning engineer types. This is reflected in rising rents.

(2) It varies by city, but there is some new construction. Last year, SF issued 6 building permits per 1000 residents, while San Jose issued a little under 3 [1]. Some other cities in the area, like Mt View, Sunnyvale, Fremont, are fairly pro-deveopment.

> the laws of thermodynamics still apply

As far as I have read, literally no one in this comments section is arguing against the laws of thermodynamics. If you actually believe that so many people here are simply thermodynamics deniers, it might be helpful to take a step back and re-read with that in mind.
I'll second this. Turning the camera on 15min in the morning to chat about anything: pressing issues, vacation or home life makes for good digital water cooler time.
Or the position of the boxes.
Or the bacteria/yeast content of the boxes.
Or the humidity gradient.
Or the temperature gradient in the room.
Or the light exposure.
Or differences in handling.

Or just random chance, as the grandparent suggests.

The experiment didn't control for any of those.

If I had to place a bet, I'd bet differences in handling, and probably temperature and humidity gradients have a stronger effect than the sound.

This is the level of an average elementary school science fair project, and shouldn't be treated differently.

I can assure you, should your baby daughter have stayed to grow at home, you'd have seen this same development. It comes from a natural drive to explore that all babies have. It's a constant adaptation to the environment, to parents, to new body, new everything.

As for the daycare factor, you could sure think of an equivalent 'beam' in your home. That could've been a chair, a something 'interesting' higher up, say, mommy's voice coming from above - anything!

Babies find the ways. Unless the home environment is devoid of attractions and baby is confined to safety of an infinite carpeted floor surrounded by soundproof glass. That's a sci-fi kind.
Same here, only C# instead of Swift. Native interop through C API adds some friction, but despite that, I also find it easier to use two distinct languages.

C++ excels at interop. As you mentioned there’re many libraries that only support of C or C++ but for me their set is different, most often I need to consume native OS APIs and GPU APIs. Also, C++ is good at number crunching, when performance matters, e.g. because first party SIMD intrinsics support.

For everything else I use C#.
