I too have considered leaving gmail for good. It seems like a bit of a process which I don't really know how to go about it and where to turn to but would love to do.
Is this serious and is this account seriously History Lapses?
This alone doesn't explain why couldn't they leave the "super node" infrastructure in, with an extra bit of code ensuring mobile users are never designated as "super nodes". This way, quality would remain the same for the desktop/laptop users, instead of being degraded for everyone.
> Did you make sure that the code does never access a page that has been mapped but never accessed by Ruby? Because that would dirty the page and increase the RSS.

Dirtying only happens upon write. My visualizer never writes, only reads.
>You clearly didn't.

I did. I wrote at length about it in the previous thread, and provided links to the language of the articles as well as the elements that were ignored.

You need to read ALL of the language to understand how the proportionality requirement impacts the scope delimitation requirement you're listing.

If you don't do that, you end up with a broken understanding of how the gears fit together.

The legislation does have holes in it, but they aren't that 'small content creators will be filtered out'. People aren't going to litigate against small content creators in the first place. They're going to get smacked by Content ID, which is already ruining livelihoods, but which is a completely separate issue from the EU legislation.
> Supposedly the next major release of Teamspeak will be Discord-like, which is somewhat concerning.

Yea, this could go very badly or be the UI and permissions cleanup that TS desperately needs.
Ah, silly me. I forgot to mention that I was referring to his 3 hour Youtube workshop (link was in the summary), not the summary itself. Hard to imagine the book would be that different. Still, I appreciated the applied Krishnamurti :).
What I said was I said was I used to hate a dev on practically in the same boat acting extremely condescending to me. That's a huge difference. If this has become the standard of HN discussions, I'm really sad.

Fuck... This has angered me much more than I thought it would have. But ok, rather than thinking "huh, I wonder whether I came off as condescending to my less experienced colleagues", let's enjoy the mindless downvote and feeling of justification in one's old ways. In the end, that's what matters; no introspection, just confirmation.
Paypal has been completely atrocious at this since its beginnings.
Many horror stories of project cancelled and companies closing because Paypal had decided to close their account.

We really need something better.
One use-case that immediately jumped to mind for an API plugin is integration with popular games for game streamers to use. Something that detects that you're in the middle of a gunfight vs just chilling in the lobby, and selects/modifies the music appropriately.

Some video games do this automatically with their in-game music, but not all, and many streamers prefer using other music to avoid it getting stale.
Over the past few years, I've talked to numerous early-stage startups of various kinds and all of them were making offers where the valuation would have to be 10-20 times their seed round valuation - which is already inflated, due to liquidity preference if you're merely taking RSU/options - for me to break even. And rarely was there significant sweat equity, nor were the founders' background substantially better than mine in any of those cases. If the potential for those startups was so great as to make their offers for early employees fair, they were essentially paying themselves millions a year, assuming most of the founders' equity was also being vested. And looking back, none of them found any kind of success where I would've come even close to breaking even.

I'm at a point where doing my own startup is beginning to look attractive and this is a concern - would my investors force me to make these types of offers to early employees? What kind of employees would I be able to attract with that? Is this just entirely about attracting anti-big company people, delusional true believers or those who have no shot at getting a decent offer elsewhere?

Btw, I've worked at startups, small companies and big companies and I don't buy that the rate of learning is higher at a small startup. At a big tech company, junior engineers already work on very large, complex problems and have tons of great people to learn from. As an engineer, there's no shortage of opportunities to learn. What can be potentially higher at a smaller company is the rate of career growth - if you're at a company that is growing at a crazy rate, you can become a somebody and have large managerial responsibilities quicker because being an early employee and having those relationships and foundational knowledge give you an advantage even over outsiders who would otherwise be more qualified. But even this is probably overstated at this point if you're not a founder, since tech culture is much more fungible than they used to be and nowadays everyone feels much more comfortable hiring experienced external managers over promoting internally those that aren't quite ready.
Beautiful. You're exactly the person I'd use this tool on.
You should check out multi-document ACID transactions on MongoDB 4.x. (Yes things have dramatically changed... add in change streams and JSON schema validation and $lookup and $graphlookup in aggregation)... (And if you don't want to install it locally, try a free M0 on MongoDB Atlas to play with the new features).

And yes, I work at MongoDB, and I worked with it before and it has really changed - WiredTiger has been a game changer for it, which is why I work at MongoDB now.
I love walking, but that's like a 2 hour commute each way.
Thanks for sharing, it looks like a livestream of the event will be hosted, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wuvCx6sFvt8

I've tried to ask whether registration is required (ie., for non-US citizens) but there was an error with .mil email address. Posting here in case someone from DARPA is reading: `local-part of envelope RCPT address contains utf8 but remote server did not offer SMTPUTF8.`
How would you solve hosting fraud, then?
Ah so I am lying that GCC has been removed from the NDK.

This is always so complicated and I do not know. Sometimes they need a simple majority representing so and so many citizens and so and so many different countries (i.e. so that big countries [De+Fr+UK] can't overrule small ones and the small ones can't overrule big ones) some hings have to be unanimous, sometimes a simple majority is enough ...
Good point. I know that 10-2's are popular as well.

I used this one because it had the longest history.
Can you please not cross into personal swipes in HN comments? Your comment would be fine without those bits.
yes, I am the creator of History Lapse. why so suspicious?
The issue is local monopoly laws granted to ISP's by city governments. In order to encourage ISP's to invest the necessary money to build infrastructure in their jurisdictions, many of these places granted them monopolies. It's an issue of crony capitalism at the hyperlocal level.
Would you take it if you only had 10 minutes to live unless you got to a hospital? Or what if your wife is about to give birth. Or if you were late to work?

Time has value. It’s foolish to think otherwise.
Well, not "all of Europe" was attacking USSR, Germany had fronts also towards Britain as well as North Africa, and USSR did get an immense amount of material support from the USA.

It is quite clear that USSR's surprisingly weak performance in Winter War did encourage Hitler to think that he could crush Soviets with a quick summer war.
I'm not sure what to make of your scare quotes, but none of what you wrote, on its face, sounds wrong to me.

1. If a lender lends me money, they're shouldering the risk that I may not repay the loan. That risk should be priced appropriately.

2. Bankruptcy is a valid concept.

3. What Wall Street did was misjudge the risk of their products (whether intentionally or not). Sounds like what the lenders in your example are doing.

But the government is punishing the risk-takers. Not sure that's a good way to promote entrepreneurship or innovation. The bankruptcy alone should serve as the deterrent (and signal to future lenders)
Sorry, I'm confused. Did you not notice that almost every post of mine is referring to specific limiting provisions - that everyone else is ignoring in creating their doomsday scenarios - in the text?

Annexation can take place with the direct threat of extreme violence but without a shot being fired, a la Hitler's "Anschluss" of 1938.

Under the terms of the 1997 Hong Kong handover, China allowed some institutions to be preserved (albeit greatly watered down) while permitting foreign companies to continue operations and have better access to the larger market (mainland China). Beijing regularly trots out this "One Country, Two Systems" model for Taiwan, something that many Taiwanese reject (recent survey results: https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3663870)

I agree with your second point. Positioning Taiwan as a center of Asian operations is something Taipei actively promoted in the late 1990s as Hong Kong waned as an international center of business. It never took off then, but I hope it can get some traction now.
Real vs. fake? Paid vs. unpaid? NYT vs. ??? I feel like I need a semiotics text to figure out what's actually being implied here.
This article looks like an excuse to heap scorn on folks that the author (and perhaps NYT generally) doesn't like.

* Kevin Rose, Jack Dorsey and a couple of others are into this subculture. From there the author makes the sweeping claim that "Silicon Valley" loves it. Sampling bias, much?

* "Rank-and-file tech workers frequently have more than one Stoic text on their bookshelves." [Citation needed].

* "Stoics believed that everything in the universe is already perfect and that things that seem bad or unjust are secretly good underneath. The philosophy is handy if you already believe that the rich are meant to be rich and the poor meant to be poor." Fuck no. Stoicism about personal responsibility, about changing what you can and accepting what you can't. Marcus Aurelius asks why you think the world should be fair, he doesn't claim that it is fair.

A newspaper that publishes BS like this degrades itself.
Got a kick out of your air hammer example because I happen to be working on a project that involves me using an air hammer (among other loud pneumatic tools) on many weeknights. The key was I actually took the time before starting to gasp sit down and talk to my neighbors and agree on things like noise level, hours I’d be working, keeping the garage door shut, etc. Lucked out by having reasonable neighbors, but you can usually head off trouble by talking with people as if they were grown adults. Ended up costing me nothing but a new quieter air compressor, and no visits from the city yet.
Yea, the person sitting next to you doesn't have your entire chat history and a server farm to de-anonymize you.
At the rate we're going, can we survive that?
The ISP's didn't collude with other businesses, they colluded with governments and got monopoly protections.
Hmmm... I may have been better off with "and" instead of "but" here, because I was agreeing with the parent comment and adding my own encouragement. scruple took no clear stance in the original comment on whether empathy is learnable or not. I believe it is.
So presumably I can assume any email using amp is a campaign and just move it straight out of my inbox?
Real Net Neutrality Protections Passed Their First Vote

This lacks the most critical part of ops in designing systems that are repeatable and debugable, discrete build steps on a time line. You can’t reason about any complex system without some core logic and this is most absent in operations.
Sailing Through the Serverless Ocean with Spotinst and OpenFaaS Cloud
Whoa. Please don't take HN threads further in the direction of personal attack or name-calling, regardless of how bad another comment was or you feel it was. That makes this place worse, both obviously and subtly: obviously because it increases ill will and steers toward flamewar; subtly because it deprives readers of information you might have been able to convey.

If you want to post something like this, the thing to do is not stop with the initial version of the comment but iterate further: take out the personal swipes and replace them with detailed, neutral information about what you noticed. Then we all can learn something. If you don't want to do that, that's fine, but in that case it would be better not to post anything.

> With the exception of the 2008 financial crisis, housing prices typically appreciate during times of recession, albeit more modestly. My guess is that this is primarily driven by falling mortgage rates

My guess is that it's a smaller market with less price sensitive buyers, based on who can afford to buy and who is therefore likely to sell during a recession (the late 00s recession being different because of the central role of the housing market collapse in that recession.)
There's really two kinds of vector code in my experience. The first kind is the standard vector code that most people probably think of, the loops that boil down to:

#pragma vectorize_me_to_death
for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
// ...
}

But there is also a second kind of vector opportunity: small vector opportunities. SLP vectorization is the ur-example here: you scan a block of code for operations that happen to be doing the same operation on different values and make vector code out of it. For this kind of vector code, there is a lot more focus on horizontal and shuffling code than the wide kind of vector code.

I haven't looked at the ARM SVE or RISC-V vector ISAs in detail, but I imagine that they don't support the latter kind of vectorization very well.
Articles are meant to promote discussion, not affirmations of belief.
I think the parent didn't see those as connected in my post. To clarify, in my OP, I meant it how you read it: After a Series A, you should be pretty close to market salary, and as a result, equity is about alignment not risk.
Also, notably, the governments colluded with them.
Henrik O. Lunde's "Finland's War of Choice" is a very good and objective description. It's focus is in the German-Finnish co-operation, but I think it gives a very good overview of the war as well.
Thanks, this is a really helpful overview!

That map doesn't load.

I can tell you that there are plenty of places in which the only option is a false option between the large carriers. In Houston, for example, my choices are: get fucked by AT&T, get ripped a new one by Comcast, or get laughed at by Windstream.

All of this from companies that have taken tax money and actively fight against community-operated broadband services.
It's not just political. I haven't taken that step but really sympathize with those that do.

Forwarding mail to Gmail accounts is perilous. My outbound queue is constantly full of mail to an established Gmail account that Google is throttling for some reason or another. I finally parted ways with a user over this specifically, since they had a number of mail accounts that were all forwarded to their Gmail account. For a company with so many smart employees, their handling on this is really dumb.

Receiving mail from Gmail accounts isn't much better. Spammers have discovered that they can cheaply spin up new Gmail accounts and spam the world for a good while before Google detects it. Since so many people use Gmail, on the receiving side I can't use any of the network reputation tricks to catch the spam. So, these days, an appreciable percentage of the spam landing in my users' mail accounts is coming from Google.

If it were just me, I'm pretty sure I'd just block anything to or from Gmail altogether and have one less recurring headache.

...which is really a shame, because I remember the excitement and wonder when Gmail debuted and how amazing it was at the time.
I suppose one solution would be to add a secondary error message that is mozilla specific and print that error as well when the exception is uncaught?

If you have 8h of time to do work including commute, like most parents with kids in daycare, then taking long walks is a pretty big luxury. Unless you can do work (calls etc) during the walk of course.
In order to call you if there’s a problem.
If you have time, I'd recommend volunteering for local soup kitchens and donating nonperishable goods, hygene objects, etc. to local shelters. Exposure will help prevent empathy erosion and force you to notice/understand the problem space of the less-fortunate. First-hand accounts and documentaries regarding experiences not your own will also aid you.
Oh, but you were being totally sincere when you took my comment about 'epidemic abuse by trolls' and complained that such terms were 'MASSIVELY over used to the point where people call anyone that disagrees with them "a troll" or a bot.'

I don't care what you were talking about. I was clarifying what I had been talking about before you came along and attempted to change the subject.
Email is actively dying and being replaced by closed alternatives (Messenger, Slack, etc) and any effort by any company to keep it alive should be applauded, including this one.

That being said I can't imagine a scenario where AMP in email is anything but annoying.

Oh, you mean that if politicians pass a law saying the sky is red, then it stops being blue?

Seriously, if the EU "rules" that gravity doesn't exist, then it suddenly stops existing?

Amazon Aurora: design considerations for high throughput cloud-native RDMSs
There is a good book called The Victorian Internet that covers the development of long distance communication up to the electric telegraph. People did all the same stuff with it. Front running trades and horse races, hooking up with other telegraphers. I can't remember all the details but it was fascinating how much of it paralleled the early internet.
You most certainly are confusing O with Theta. O is just an asymptotic upper bound. Of course a function that’s bounded by n lg n is also bounded by n^2.
Strange how this was mentioned in a Monty Don documentary about Japanese gardens that must have been on the BBC in early February.

Lovely gardens by the way.

A leisurely walking pace is 4-5mph, so that's about an hour commute. Less after you've done it a few times. If she wanted to use a bike that could be reduced to 20-30 minutes, which is totally reasonable.
The time spent on a relaxing walk every day is valuable as well
The issue is these incumbents use local laws to punish new comers. Just look at the poll access issues throughout this country. The regulatory burden of having to wait for a competitor to move their lines to make room for you is just one of many ways incumbent ISPs slow competitive access.
If you would otherwise take time for exercise at other points in the day, you're actually saving time by walking :)

Question about the long-term vision: do you see this as potentially being an educational artifact? Seems like just reading through the code could be a great way to get familiar with good ETL practices, good vectorization practices, etc.
haha yeah me too. It might actually happen while we are still around.

This will be good for Taiwan and god Google. They already have a pretty decent presence in TW, though my understanding is there was some env but not a whole lot of eng. This will up the presence. It’s interesting they’re doing more in TW than in JP (if it’s strictly about talent rather than a kind of bridge to China).

It be good if Google influences a better work-life balance given the propensity to stay in the office till the boss leaves even when there’s nothing to do (it’s not just a trope in their TV shows, it actually happens a lot for office workers).

Disgusting that people would downvote this!

Yes, they do. I've witnessed it two times so far. It takes time (weeks to months) but the delusions start slowly dissipating and the person gets less and less convinced and they slowly return back to reality. You can also notice how they start thinking more clearly and speech gets more structured and coherent.
seems like a step in the right direction ...
I'm assuming that Google killed the Inbox app died because they didn't want to implement this? Ugh.
I have hated AMP for the web with a passion. The other day I did a google search, started reading an article, and all of a sudden, I saw a little floating alert at the bottom saying "signed in to google" and I was quite alarmed by it, as I hadn't realized I had clicked on an AMP link. So an article that had nothing to do with google, kept me on a google property, and caused me to log in to google. So now I'm associated with that article.

These companies desperately need to be chopped up and have severe data sharing restrictions put on them. They're much more invasive than Microsoft ever was in the 90s.
> It's not a safe assumption that people living in countries with authoritarian leaders disapprove of them.

Also see Hitler's popular approval ratings [0] (Godwin's law notwithstanding). In August 1934, roughly 90% of German voters were in favor of the consolidation of the offices of President and Chancellor into a single Leader-Chancellor in the person of Adolf Hitler. Note that number should be taken with a big grain of salt, since there was tremendous social and political pressure to vote that way -- and a threat of repercussions for voting "no".
