and "Google is dominant in the market for online search advertising intermediation in the EEA". Exclusivity deal was nothing strange but abusing "this market dominance by preventing rivals from competing in the online search advertising intermediation market." wasn't ok.

The exclusivity deal might have been fine were it not for Google's dominant position.
It is a trade off and not for everybody. But for me I value my time and comfort of not having to untangle / untie the stupid pieces of Earpod wire every time I want to use it.

I do agree charging it hurts.
A large stretch of Queens Boulevard has a bike lane alongside of its local lanes now. I just biked the length of it the other day, it's actually quite a pleasant urban biking experience in terms of safety (though not in terms of scenery). The lane is wide, separated from traffic, and the intersections with cars are sensibly designed[0].

(In the map view below, the bike lane is the green lane, where the tan painted area is designated for pedestrians. But almost no pedestrians are going to be walking parallel with the road between the local and through lanes. And if they are, they're likely going to be on the actual median instead of in the painted area. So it's safe to bike in the tan paint, and leave the entire green bike lane as a buffer area. This may sound disrespectful to pedestrians, but when I biked the entire length of the bike lane the other day, I didn't see a single pedestrian walking in this area or even on the median.)

Could solve the problems you're describing by charging people to move to the front of the line rather than charging for immediate entry. Could even have people bid for next entry to encourage competition.
36kr really does seem to be what TC was when it had Crunchbase -- if TC had leveraged CB to its full potential instead of spinning it off. The Bloomberg article says that 36Kr's news portal "hosted 50,000 articles and had 150 million readers at the end of 2017", on top of being a data analysis/tracker platform. Crunchbase does have its own news portal at https://news.crunchbase.com, but I have no idea if it has millions of readers yet.

I don't know about that. For awhile I was doing Airbnb while looking for a place. I had the worst rental experience ever. I ended up renting one bedroom in a two bedroom apartment. The people I was staying with weren't bad, or loud. But the person I was renting from had crammed another seven or eight people into the apartment. And one day I came back and found an eviction notice on the door. Apparently it was a rent controlled apartment, only one person was on the lease, and it wasn't the person I was paying. I'm assuming because they had already had several evictions on their records. One one hand I did rent from them, but there were physical issues with the property I found after I showed up.
The java.util.HashMap implementation uses chaining, but for example the google guava libraries that are frequently used are open addressing based.
>Yeah, free speech doesn't mean "anything goes".

Yes, it does. It has to, otherwise free speech is defined as any arbitrary level of censorship a government allows, and one could say North Korea has just as much "free speech" as the US.

Now, I'm not making an argument that free speech as such is preferable or even feasible in a civil society, or that censorship per se is wrong, and I'm definitely not making the typical slippery slope argument that any form of censorship will inevitably lead to tyranny.

However, free speech has to be defined as a constant to mean anything objective.
What I mean to say is, EU is looking at tech giants past and fining billions.

But if one looks at the European countries history, they have mostly looted from various other countries.

It's seems completely fine for them to look up all the bad practices done by google.(where no human life is lost)

One should also look at what their countries have done in past and pay the affected countries for their wrong doing.

But in these case they seem to say we aren't responsible for what our ancestors have done.

What I mean is, It's fine if google have done something wrong in the past.

Layout the rules now, if they cross it, then fine them.

Now, I think this is exploiting power, just because they can.
They promised Linux support and took money from people on that premise. Then, when they no longer needed us, they discarded us with empty promises of adding Linux support "in the future". Now they're shipping new products and - surprise - no Linux support. Oculus can shove it.
Yeah, not a fan of college either, but I'm also against marketing high repayment loans to the poor.

Students already struggle with 5-7% student loans. Sure, this is less total money, but just bring the repayment down to something reasonable like $30k over 10 years to offer a rate that doesn't exceed maximum interest rate laws.
So, this doesn't have to go to ad absurdum to become problematic. We depend on a social contract between people who live together to make things harmonious and not devolve into violence. (E.g. neighbors showing up with guns when a party gets too loud; or abstracting the violence, members of the neighborhood calling the cops on small infractions of the law.)

So, that gets back to the problem. AirBnB has not solved the problem because the people who are affected are the neighbors of the AirBnB. If the people renting the apartment are not in the apartment itself, they will give the guests 5 stars if the house is clean at the end. However, the neighbors might give that same guest 1 star because they were partying at 3AM, keeping the neighbors awake.

So, we get back to calling in the police and making the place worse for everyone. A hotel has people on the premise to monitor; an AirBnB is not guaranteed this.
that's the story of every Apple product. They look great, provide good to decent functionality, but not worth their price tags.
It does promise a huge change though. Ideally, you keep a few cows and bulls reproducing, making tastier stem cells for further replication.

In essence, you could feed a huge population of humans using only a few individuals, although it would still be wise to keep those "stem" cows in case sickness or something else strikes them.

That being said, I'm afraid at some point the economic incentives will just go onto making a bunch of embryos mature and harvesting them completely for stem cells.
I think the word fake is the issue here. It's fake in the sense it's not from animals is my interpretation, not that it's lacking in vitamin, nutritional value etc.

But admittedly, that's only my interpretation.
At this point, I do not have much faith in Valve's ability to ship products. Anyone excited about VR likely shouldn't hold their breath.

As I mentioned further up the thread, it was illegal for about 50 years in the US as a hypothetical but it’s no longer a legitimate legal standard. Shouting fire in a crowded theater isn’t illegal (at least, it isn’t not free speech). See Brandenburg v. Ohio and how it overruled the prior Schenk standard.
Not yet. You can export comments from Commento as a JSON, but you can't import from the same format. Sucks, I know, but I'll try to implement this soon.
Ugh... that (no mechanical IPD adjustment) made the Oculus Go entirely worthless for me :/.
I have word from a personal source that Valve has no plans for a new headset in 2019, but they could be wrong. There has also been rumblings in the media about Valve firing a bunch of their hardware people. Do you have any sources with more details about this 2019 headset?

I think there is a failure to communicate somewhere. I'm certainly not suggesting that people are born as blank slates. I'm just suggesting that there is a lot that happens in the years between birth and adulthood that influence outcomes. Whatever stuff we are born with is not some kind of predetermined fate that "we will do/behave X."

I've raised two special needs sons. They are late twenties/early thirties. This is a problem space I've thought a lot about. My thoughts on the subject seem to generally not plug into the current public narrative.

HN should have a feature that hides any comments from users who haven't actually clicked on the link.
The way I understand it, you refuse to eat lab-grown meat simply because you dismiss it as "fake," thus lacking in something compared to livestock meat. Why, though? There is no intrinsic, special value in livestock meat -or any food, for that matter- besides taste and nutritional properties. The day these two attributes, together with cost and environment footprint, become on par or preferable to livestock meat's, all other considerations should fly out of the window.
You should avoid fake meat in general as a vegetarian unless you can personally verify the source, or otherwise accept the risk that sometimes you will eat real meat.

I went to a party once where a vegetarian was told a fake meat was used for some chili, but it really wasn't.

How? If you send an email with this on to me@protonmail.com and I download the message to my IMAP client how does google magically reach out and delete it from my hard drive? Is the email HTML only that only displays the text when the user is online and that text is fetched from the Google server? Let us say it is and I view the email, how does Google stop me from cutting and pasting that email using my thunderbird, et.al. IMAP client?
> At the same time, the aforementioned party gave billions of dollars in infrastructure projects throughout Latin America bolivarian states, that without a doubt won't make returns in any way.

First and foremost, the money went to Brazilian companies that built that infrastructure.

Second, it was a loan that has to be paid back by those governments.

Third, the loan is covered by insurance.
Actually its Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Poland and Romania
This is interesting, especially with the points on "Establishment of an effective frame of reference" and "Crafting of a unifying lexicon", thank you. I still wonder if we're limited by our languages and need to consider constructs other than 'system'?
That's an option, but then we wouldn't have nice things like Asynchronous Timewarp / Spacewarp unless we want to shift the burden of doing that onto the rendering application. As someone who worked in VR before the Compositor was a thing, I welcome it with open arms. It's just easier for everybody.

That said, it'd be nice if you didn't have to log into some account to make it happen.
> A simple acknowledgement that "yes, I now see that you face casual racism on a daily basis here at Yale, so let's work together on educating people about this casual racism" would have probably defused the situation.

That does make sense. In a way a lot of conflicts suffer from this. It is not always just the issue that starts the confrontation but there is a whole "iceberg" part hiding underneath that's not being usually addressed and might not be visible to a casual observer.

> I mean, just see all the sibling comments

Thank you for taking the time to respond. That's why I wanted your opinion as you seems have been there and are aware of a larger context.

...commercial operations, rather than individuals making use of extra space that they already had in their homes.

This has been my experience. Super-hosts with more than one listing. Apartments/homes that were obviously full-time rentals. So, not run by big corporations, but definitely run by somebody who has enough money on hand to buy property as a business venture.
Yep, looks like it. I'm actually glad to have a little more color - the previous article didn't give the actual reason the mercenaries were in the country.

Did you do any modifications to the WSL default? It's by far the slowest program on my work computer, like multiple seconds of typing latency at times. It's disgusting to use. Hyper is a bit better but it's obvious Windows wasn't designed by people who care about minor details like typing latency.

You are so hopped up on your ideology that you attributed some argument to my post that I wasn't even making. My post was criticizing the person for not even attempting to make an argument and instead devolving into just saying "you are wrong, I'm right".

Anyway, I find it interesting how angry people get about people using their homes as an additional source of income. I guess people just need a scapegoat for every little thing wrong in their lives. Look at some of the horrible anecdotes in this thread, there is someone actually blaming an increase in crime in Miami on Airbnb.
San Francisco already has plenty of those. https://www.citylab.com/equity/2015/09/im-obsessed-with-san-...
I don't think it's (always) about being obsessed with social validation though, it's a new societal norm brought about by social media. In fact it's the _hook_ it's why people use social media at all, because you can _share your life_ with people in a way that wasn't possible before. The raising of children being a major part of that life. I would go as far as to say that the children aren't actually the subject in these posts, the real subject is the parent's life and the posts containing images and anecdotes of their kids are a side effect.

Maybe this is an opportunity for some social media company to get ahead of this and use facial recognition to tag people across ages. If the user decides that they don't want their image to appear on someone else's account, they can go through the images granularly and take them down.

I think what I'm getting at is that this is _new_. It's as new as is the ability of a 14 year old to express their frustration with something and have an audience of millions. I don't think the solution here is to tell parents that it's inappropriate to post about their children online. I think the real solution has more to do with finding a comfortable balance and set of controls so that everyone's interests can be accounted for.

p.s. I shuddered while typing "14 year old to express their frustration with something and have an audience of millions". The next 50 years are going to contain some _hard_ times.
Yes

Here's another article which follows the original as well:

https://haitiantimes.com/2019/03/12/question-remain-unanswer...

I think it's interesting. In the case of Hovnanian, you have two companies who are making bets against each other on whether Hovnaian will survive. Hovnanian has no involvement in the CDS market on their own debt. And yet they were able to take the CDS market and turn it into funding, which allowed a company that was in financial trouble to continue to exist and provide jobs.

Solus was free to offer Hovnanian funding with more favorable terms and the agreement to not default. And if GSO and Solus want to go back and forth offering better and better terms then in the end you have a viable company that's leveraged CDS to get additional funding at good terms.

I think a much sketchier case is what Aurelius did to Windstream. There you have no benefit being created on the back of CDS engineering, you just have a hedge fund who drove a viable business into bankruptcy against the wishes of the primary bondholders.

Conceptually, the CDS market is useful. If I do a bunch of business with a company and them going bankrupt would cause me financial problems then I can use CDS to hedge against that possibility. I don't know how you can prevent this kind of engineering though. I think it's easier to prevent what Aurelius did to Windstream. But the GSO/Hovnanian deal seems much harder to regulate.

Maybe instead we just decide that it was actually a good thing and going forward people should be aware that it's a possible outcome? The risk of default isn't just the risk that the company on its own defaults, but also the risk that the company defaults and can't find outside funding. If people are expecting that eventuality then the CDS market should settle in a spot that prices in the possibility of CDS buyers or sellers offering refinancing.

Sarcasm aside: this is not a problem with Go modules. This is a problem with the libraries you're using and you should avoid those projects until they get their act together.

NNs are just the first step in the pipeline. Their outputs (detected objects, segmentation, etc) will be piped into other software that builds higher level models.

Considering the path-planning requirements I would be absolutely shocked if Autopilot wasn't build history models and estimated paths for objects around the vehicle (other cars etc).
I'm not sure that backshifting is as easy as "moving all items in the chain forward by one slot". Consider the hashtable [A, B1, B2, _, _], where one element is subsequently added after B2, giving [A, B1, B2, X, _]. Now when we remove B1 and shift B2 forward one slot ([A, B2, _, X, _]), we have to shift X forward if it hashes to the second or the third slot in the table, but not the fourth. So there might be multiple chains involved; if it was one contiguous chain only, we could simply arrange for the "hole" in it to be filled with no need for shifting all the items in it, and it would be quite efficient. However, it seems that it's not so simple.
Yes, and that directly causes a device to fail SafetyNet Attestation which can cause some third-party apps to not work even with sideloading/different app store.

Gall says nothing about the simplest thing, only that complex systems grow out of simple small ones. I mention this not to be a stickler, but to highlight the interesting possibility that "the simplest thing that could possibly work" might not actually (or always) be something that a complex later system can evolve out of. We don't know that. I'm reminded of a comment by Alan Kay about how you don't want the lowest stratum of a system to be too simple.
I agree with this and want to expand: Following a recipe == auto pilot; reacting to deviations from the expected / working with new realities == chef (not cook).

The whole point of still having humans in the cockpit, aside from being slightly cheaper than automation right now, is the ability to react to and correct for the unexpected. I agree that this is a terrible engineering design, but that it's only one of the contributing factors. Disasters (nearly always) happen when a string of things go wrong, and safety is about making sure every one of them goes right so that the chances of failure are as close to eliminated as possible.
