> . It is im fact the solution, and a solution that's being ignored.

If the coder's C++, that is written in flow without being distracted by borrow-checkers and whatnot, is in fact correct code, then no, there is no solution that is being ignored; what's being ignored is a "problem in search of a solution".

> Or is anyone expecting that your memory corruption problems will magically cease because you write your same old memory allocation and access bugs in Rust instead of C or C++?

That's a pretty good executive summary of the Rust cheerleading.

In fact, what you describe is sometimes possible. For illustration, let's confine our attention to use-after-free bugs and memory leaks. If we make the free function do nothing, and stick in a garbage collector, then in fact you can write (some of) "your same old memory allocation and access bugs" yet they are mitigated.
Back in the day, we just called those people assholes.
> NCMEC is out of scope here. They do not have magical powers that allow them to distinguish between an 18 year old or a 17 year old uploading pictures of themselves.

NCMEC doesn't need those "magical powers" because NCMEC does not care about the latter. That's not their mandate. Hacker News loves to talk about age-of-consent and child pornography in the context of 17 year olds, but that's simply not relevant here. That's not the issue that Tumblr was facing pressure from.

> Throw around as many of your qualifications as you like, it changes nothing.

It sounds like you're so convinced in your own beliefs that even direct, firsthand knowledge of the inside situation won't change your mind, in which case you're right - there's no point in continuing this conversation.

You may not like that I know what actually went on here, and I can tell you're very upset that the actual facts about how NCMEC works and why Tumblr internally chose to make their decision don't support your narrative, but that's the reality. Whether you choose to believe it or not, it changes nothing.
I think that type has mostly gone away/become the third. People "ironically" posting racism seem to all just be flat out racists now. As Kurt Vonnegut said “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”
Having been involved in the community for most of my life, my very first thought was "oh that's cool he's one of us" and then I remembered that historically hackers have been phenomenally bad people to give any kind of real power to.
Exceptions vs. the Result Type in F#
No it's not. You can buy a PC from many different vendors, HP, Lenevo, Dell etc. They compete and the price goes down, and customers get a choice. You can also run linux for free and use VSCode for free which also runs on Linux.

With Apple I have to buy the PC from Apple at it's marked up price since no competition. So it is a fair point.
The biggest problem with blackmail and extortion is no two people seem to agree on exactly what they are and are not.

I use these definitions:

To blackmail is to threaten to do something otherwise legal (usually divulge information) unless you are paid.

To extort is to threaten to do something otherwise illegal unless you are paid.

Blackmail is one of those odd two-rights-make-a-wrong matters like prostitution or insider trading, and it's tough for a lot of people to square the corresponding laws with their own morals.

Having been blackmailed before (as in 18 USC §873 Blackmail) I find most people's attitudes on the matter are heavily influenced by their personal histories with blackmail (or lack of histories) and subject to change.

There are other places we could imagine setting up chargers too, like at grocery markets or other stores. Because Tesla batteries (and some but not all other EVs) are massively oversized for a typical single day's drive, you probably only need to charge every 1-2 weeks unless you are taking a trip, in which case you use superchargers or such.
There are still some good ones, but they tend to be smaller and rarely political. For instance, r/homelab is still pleasant. (Though it might inspire negative effects on your credit cards)

You're conflating "the male experience" with " overt aggression", which I don't believe is true. Stoicism is incredibly "manly" (look at a caricature like Ron Swanson), but is the opposite of acting aggressively.

Most native american populations are experiencing similar high suicide rates, and they don't all share this non-aggression ethos.

Supercharging V3 was just announced with one beta station, 1000 MPH of charging. Pretty incredible.

You have to think of fueling up in a different way with an EV -- you're parked at home for many hours overnight, and at work for many hours too, plug in there if you can instead of making dedicated "fuel stops" like we do in gas cars.

However, if I (through legal means) learn one of your secrets and just go ahead and publish it, that's usually perfectly legal. For that matter, if you find out I know something and offer me a quid-pro-quo for signing an NDA and not revealing it, that's probably legal as well. IANAL.
Very interesting. I suspect we may even have worked for the same bank! I'd love to discover how we came to such opposing conclusions.

To give you a Python example, it encourages stuff like:

def send_email(recipients, contents):
if type(recipients) == str:
send_one_email(recipients, contents)
else:
for recipient in recipients:
send_one_email(recipient, contents)

That is a flavour of convenience that people commonly implement in Python. People like it because it allows both

send_email("tome", contents)

and

send_email(["tome", "mlthoughts2018"], contents)

and saves them from typing two square brackets. The problem is when you call

send_email(u"tome", contents)

It tries to email "t", "o", "m", and "e". This kind of stuff is endemic in Python. Yes, this did happen in practice in a company I worked for (a company that was responsible for trading hundreds of millions of dollars of securities every day). Call the programmers exceptionally bad if you like, but they were among the brightest minds graduating in my country. It was Python that allowed them to be sloppy.
On the bright side, the Secret Service are one of the few organizations I'd trust to keep one safe if one were Satoshi. ;)

I used to tutor folks in basic math classes at a small community college, mostly classes leading up to college algebra (Math 097, 098). Varied backgrounds, ages 18-50s.

There was a common theme to some of the problems these students had: if you didn't quickly grasp a concept in the specific way that particular teacher taught it, the class would soon move on to the next topic anyways. And sometimes teachers would not teach one particular thing very well, but it was something the rest of the class's instruction depended on. This left people adrift for the rest of the curriculum. If they took the class over again, they could get stuck at the same point because the class moved at the same pace, often with the same instructor. That's both incredibly frustrating and a huge waste of time and money!

I was waiting to hear something like this. Generally speaking, Airline pilots who actually flew the plane are one of the best sources to consult when it comes to determining any possible safety malfunction of an aircraft.

One thing to note is the mention of a "Runaway Trim Checklist". When piloting an airliner, there is a checklist for almost everything. Sometimes there are multiple checklists with branching paths. Most emergency/malfunction checklists involve what are called "memory items". These are checklist steps that the pilot must remember in order to react quickly to any possible problem. After the memory items are completed, the pilots will break out the checklist binder and follow the checklist procedure that comes after the memory items.

Every procedure the pilots undergo has passenger safety as it's #1 concern. Pilots are free to make whatever decision they deem necessary to ensure the safety of their passengers, even at the detriment of the airline's bottom line. They are free to make these decisions without question, even if the problem seems small.

I believe it's important to note the above information whenever we look at these horrible accidents and try to reason about them. Often, pilots are the first line of defense against failures. Most aircraft have 2-3 redundant systems for almost every control and feature. Pilots need to understand and know how to work with and around these systems in order to react to emergency situations. That's why I think the MCAS isn't really to blame here as much as Boeing is to blame for not properly documenting it's operation in their manuals.
It's an fairly divisive comment to accuse some group of people of the futurecrime of murdering your own people in churches. That's a serious accusation of something that hasn't happened yet.

This is a witch hunt that will undermine confidence in the global economic system. Everything one can accuse Huawei of can be applied against any tech company - and for some with hard evidence and most here know.

This can easily backfire with tech companies being banned and excluded from markets on frivolous grounds without due process in the same way.

It cannot just be some can undermine competition and limit access to markets with scaremongering and wild allegations. If free markets and competition are mere political constructs to benefit a few then the whole system is effectively over.

In the medium term, there seems to be opportunity for increases in charging speed as well. Tesla just announced v3 supercharging, which hits 1000 miles/hour and 75 miles of range in 5 minutes, and at the very least larger batteries will stretch that number. It's not clear how far they and others can push high-speed charging, but batteries are only going to get better.

I wonderfully interested that you think the DNC would allow that to happen after just two year of being shown explicitly that they will do whatever is needed to make sure that does not happen.
Spotify is obviously going to try and define the relevant market as something that frames Apple as dominant, but I'm struggling to figure out how they're going to do that. You have to define the market as some set of products that are "interchangeable" to consumers. Apple is under 20% of "smartphones," globally, and somewhere around 25% of the EU.

I don't think you can say that the App Store is itself a relevant market. Especially when you consider that Spotify's exact same services are offered across many other platforms. When you can interchange Android Spotify and iOS Spotify and receive the exact same product and services from Spotify, then how can you frame Apple as a dominant undertaking?
Are you aware of Gitpod (https://www.gitpod.io/)? It's one-click online IDE for GitHub based on Theia. You can have as many workspaces as you want which are continuously replicated and never deleted, bring your own custom Docker image and it's free for open source development.
Rejected because I'm not a computer magazine available in archive.org.

The irony here is so many of the citable articles aren't the result of some gumshoe reporter searching for "the truth" by sifting through facts and conducting independent research and interviews. They start with a press release or PR pitch. This is especially true of tech coverage.

There was a flurry of articles late last year about astronauts on the space station treating a robot poorly. Guess where that story came from? The IBM Watson communications team! Now that the story has been "reported" on CNET, The Verge, ABC News, etc., it can be now be cited in Wikipedia articles.

It's the same with arts coverage (the New York Times supplements on Sunday are particularly obvious), political interviews, business profiles, and reporting about science and medicine. Not all of this news is planted or shaped by PR teams ("you can have access to X as long as you mention Y") but a lot of it is.

The motivation section of the proposal you linked to contains the very illuminating sentence

Der Entwurf zielt darauf, das Betreiben von auf die Förderung illegaler Zwecke ausgerichteten Plattformen unabhängig von dem Nachweis der Beteiligung an einzelnen konkreten Handelsgeschäften unter Strafe zu stellen.

My translation:

The draft aims to penalize the operation of platforms directed at supporting illegal activities, independent of proof of participation in individual specific trades.

I.e. the law is drafted to close a loophole where you can open a black market site, lovingly curate illegal goods into categories and offer your escrow services to potential customers, but you can only be prosecuted once the police can find someone who actually used your service. Instead, they'd prefer to be able to shut it down beforehand.

All in all, I'm not too worried that the law will be passed in a form that outlaws operating Tor nodes.

This is one of the most ridiculous comments I've ever seen at the top of a HN thread. Are you seriously equating high Inuit suicide rate with the how men are raised in these communities? As if a 6-11 fold increase in suicide could possibly be explained away by "well, yeah, they aren't allowed to express their agression"

This is ridiculous, bordering on racist. Have you ever visited an Inuit community? The economic and social isolation, combined with extreme poverty, would be enough to drive many people to suicide. But. I'm not going to rebut your claims because they're just fallacious in their own right and this thread doesn't need to derail into an analysis of subjugated populations.

Late answer, I didn't downvote this though.

Anyhow, both formulations of entropy - the thermodynamical one with the integral and the statistical physics one with multiplicity - are equivalent. At least the latter already contains statistics because of the combinatorial part.

And then there is one formulation of the 2nd law which states that on statistical average the entropy rises. So it doesn't break the law if it falls down. Given that this quantum computer doesn't involve many objects, the number of combinations isn't that high. But it's nice to observe Entropy falling! (And there are other situations in which this can happen anyway.)
