It's weird that that's a thing, considering how there are SO many startups both in Silicon Valley and Shenzen. You would think these companies would poach talent by providing perks like "4 day work week" or "unlimited vacation". The author of the article might have a point. Silicon Valley is starting to figure this out to some extent but China isn't yet

Still I would think that since there's so many companies that these jobs would be extremely cushy. I guess the actual problem is that the label market is so much more saturated than the number of startups that they don't even have to poach talent at all
Some businesses operate with a single outside facing telephone number. So when you call 1-800-myc-mpny you reach the business at that number. But if that company has 10 people who are making outside calls they need 10 outside lines. By allowing companies to spoof CID all 10 callers can make calls that appear to have originated from 1-800-myc-mpny even though the lines they're using all tie to different external phone numbers.

I didn't know about WASI before and it looks great. As a C/C++ dev, one of my concerns about WASM was that most of native WASM runtimes are interfacing towards Emscripten which is not quite standardized.

Do you expect WASI will soon replace the current Emscripten exports interfaces?
This confuses me a little. I remember when I was a kid watching a documentary about this condition. It is generally a severe danger to the person as they do not naturally learn the penalties for a broken bone or severe burn. Pain is a very important signal. The media articles on this at the moment are making it sound never heard of before and possibly something we want.
How did you know it was an ACL injury?

Did you injure yourself and went to a medical center and they told you to go to a radiology center who then told you you had an ACL injury?

I ask because at the end, you said you searched for "sports medicine surgeons" which already looks like you have _some_ knowledge about what was going on.

Which is great. But part of the problem we have is education. Most people don't even know of other options available to them and don't have the vocabulary to effectively search for what they want.

"Torn ACL" is way more specific than "Knee hurts".

Those interested in open source software for astronomy might also be interested in KStars [0]. It is a very capable piece of software and, despite what the K might lead you to believe (that it would only run on KDE on top of Linux), it runs on Windows/OSX/Linux.

"KStars ... provides an accurate graphical simulation of the night sky, from any location on Earth, at any date and time. The display includes up to 100 million stars, 13,000 deep-sky objects,all 8 planets, the Sun and Moon, and thousands of comets, asteroids, supernovae, and satellites. For students and teachers, it supports adjustable simulation speeds in order to view phenomena that happen over long timescales... For the amateur astronomer, it provides an observation planner, a sky calendar tool, and an FOV editor to calculate field of view of equipment and display them... Included with KStars is Ekos astrophotography suite, a complete astrophotography solution that can control all INDI devices including numerous telescopes, CCDs, DSLRs, focusers, filters, and a lot more. Ekos supports highly accurate tracking using online and offline astrometry solver, autofocus and autoguiding capabilities, and capture of single or multiple images using the powerful built in sequence manager."

Oh man. One of my biggest pet peeves is being accused of something I did not do. I would have probably gotten into trouble for heading back to that guy's office and ripping him a new *hole for presuming I am guilty based on a faulty software tool without first verifying the result manually himself. That's just absolutely ridiculous. I mean... that is a really serious accusation!

I remember NPR trying to do an April Fools prank long ago. It was a dog bark translator. My reaction was "cool, though I already kinda know what my dog barks mean". I wondered how hard the technical problem was.

When I realized it was a prank, I didn't feel duped. I felt like the purveyor of the prank looked foolish in my eyes.

That's when I realized the true meaning of April Fools. They sure are.
> Why do you think it’s right to go after the ad creator only

Never said or suggested any such thing. In fact I've explicitly said that assigning some responsibility to the publisher seems reasonable. What I find questionable is the singular targeting of one publisher but neither the advertisers nor other publishers. That's not how one fights for equality or justice, so there must be some other goal.
Adding our kid to our health insurance (through employer) added $300 a month. Trying to be responsible and saving for college adds $100 a month.

Kid is too young to stay at home by himself and we don't live by family. So we pay for before/after care (school hours are from 9-3:30). This is astonishingly $600 a month, a relatively cheap option around here (there's cheaper but not by much).
If something like that happened, I'd be taking notes.
You still haven't given an example of someone being called a "white supremacist". Would you please? Or admit that you are fearmongering.

Again, Facebook didn't use the word already right. They're talking about white supremacists. You're arguing that these are the same thing. So if that's the case, you should have ample examples of people calling Jordan Peterson a white supremacist also.

If not, then maybe they aren't the same thing, and your equivocation is unwarranted and you should stop attempting to confuse the subject.
Changing the reward/transaction price/whatever by a certain fraction every year doesn't imply that the price will move by the same amount, due to the original problem mentioned above: If the supply is rigid (i.e. not responding to market forces), then the price will be demand-driven, and demand can/will change arbitrarily, which means high volatility.

To maintain fixed inflation, the supply would have to be actively managed (and I assumed that's what was meant).
It used to be a felony to plug unauthorized equipment into a telephone line. You had to get your telephone from Ma Bell.

Caller Id came about in '68. It was built around an honor system because that's the environment that's how telephone lines used to be operated. They weren't able to predict the future.
>Different companies have quite different strategies and cultures. Some treat their employees much better than others.

Yes, but you can find clear trends when you look at different groups, such as American corporations vs. European ones, and if you do that, you can see that employees, on average, are treated much worse at American companies. While there are some success stories in America, such as Costco (which is pretty famous for paying and treating employees very well, considering the jobs there are generally low-skill and don't require college degrees), the American system rewards companies that don't treat employees well and they tend to do better when competing with companies that do.

Oracle to Supreme Court: Google Copyright Breach Knocked It Out of Smartphones
Typical behavior from IT companies. I once interviewed with a large distribution company who needed a firewall engineer, something I did along with pen testing for almost 5 years. They hired the guy with the masters right out of Baylor because... he had a masters. He failed the firewall test we both sat through. He didn't know that firewalls route before they NAT. He didn't know what a state table was or how they are used. He didn't know how to set up a multi-spoke VPN. I knew and know all of that. Yet... he got the job even though he likely couldn't find his ass with both hands. I've learned to not be as bitter about stuff like this because most of the time, good employers value experience over education, as they should.

There is not much I cannot do given the chance, yet being given the chance is the operative word.

Mandate that telephone customers who receive bad calls can acquire the billing information of every call received (whatever is behind the spoofed Caller ID), as well as implementing the ability for users to block incoming calls based on the unspoofed number and/or account holder.

I would say it's:

1) There's a large difference between a compiler that exists and an efficient one. The JVM is designed for Java and not C, which makes efficient compilation hard / impossible. Graal as mentioned is an extremely unusual research technique that may make it feasible.

This comment is related:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19065829

Basically people underestimate how hard it is to make a VM that can run multiple languages. JRuby and Jython work, but it takes heroic efforts.

2) The interface to the OS, as mentioned. You can maybe run some algorithms like image processing, but try running the native sqlite code on the JVM, or something even hairier involving networking. It's not straightforward.

WASI provides something that's closer to what C programs expect than what Java provides. As I said, the market voted with its feet. All the friction adds up. If you try hacking on that compiler or manually porting code, you'll probably get a sense of why that is.
Re:Yang,

I'm vaguely sympathetic to the idea of "elect a business person so they can run government like a business", but any openness to the idea goes out the window when the candidate's business is venture capital.
I'm really interested in this, but wish someone wrote a matching "how to learn stats". This seems aimed at people who already have stats knowledge and experience with R, so there's lots of "you know what I'm talking about" assumptions.

> Your comment implies that Nazi Germany had absolutely ZERO redeeming qualities, which no credible historian would agree with. (e.g. no other country since has had the degree of focus on conservationism and environmentalism)

There are plenty of nations, both before and since, that have so much higher of a focus on conservation and environmentalism that they don't compromise those in the interest of conquest and genocide; the Nazi campaigns directed at those aims, leaving aside the moral dimension of their more direct effects on humans, were fairly disastrous from an environmental and conservationist perspective.
Some of these tools use our company SerpApi.com as a data backend.

Yes, but when they spoof a completely different number for strategic purposes it should still be possible to block calls from the unspoofed number's account. I mean, it should be possible to block any account holder, but it would be especially effective here.
It's only not going to happen because there's a conventional deterrent backing up the nuclear deterrent.

Suppose Russia invades Poland. With a conventional deterrent, NATO can deploy ground and air forces to a defensive front and hold Russia to a stalemate. Eventually it would escalate to a nuclear exchange, but only through a stepwise process. Most importantly, this is why Russia doesn't invade Poland.

Without a conventional deterrent, Russian tanks could reach Brussels and the only countermeasure would be a nuclear first strike against Russia. That wouldn't happen. Which means there's no reason for Russia not to invade every non-nuclear-armed country it wants to. Which means every single country in the vicinity of Russia is going to want their own nuclear deterrent, because that will be the only effective defense.

(Also, missile defense is getting good enough that MAD might not survive the 21st century, and then we'll feel silly for not having any other military options.)

I read the same story from NY Times, which had a more detailed write up. She likely inherited the genes from her dad. "Likely" because they can't test her dad's genes since he's deceased. Her dad didn't really feel pain either, so growing up it was not that abnormal.

Her son has a similar mutation but daughter doesn't.

There's a bit after "competition" comes into play. And for me, that was the hardest part of the game. You had to grow faster than the competition, which is pretty difficult.

I've done two playthroughs. The 1st playthrough was pretty lucky and I had no issues... but the 2nd playthrough of mine was "deadlocked" behind those Drifters for a long time.

Its very punishing to fall behind the drifters: it takes a lot of effort and optimization to catch up to them and overtake them. But I assure you, its possible, even if they kill all of your probes.

I would imagine that a lot of players get unlucky, and then get "trapped" there. Its the first time you see your numbers drop, since the adversary actually kills off your means of production. Growing (and out-growing the adversary) takes a very different strategy than the rest of the game up until that point.

Aside: Mobile phone spark risk at petrol stations is a myth: http://i.stuff.co.nz/technology/digital-living/3909468/Petro... - Dr Kruszelnicki said the forecourt warnings were more about service station owners "covering their arses from a legal point of view".

I believe they just add the currently listed (via caller ID) to a blacklist that it will block in the future. It doesn't help for spam calls that rotate their spoofed numbers.
From the NYT - the favorite magazine of the right:

You don't want things to break down in a landfill. They do decompose in industrial composting facilities, though, which are becoming more accessible (we just signed up for a service that costs $5/week for a decent-sized bin).
Slightly related, but a downtown restaurant can't have it's kitchen in the outskirts.

But the opposite can be true.

There was an article posted on HN in the last six months or so about "virtual restaurants" where established restaurants drive a van or drop a shipping container into a parking lot after hours and set up shop exclusively for delivery purposes in urban areas. The restaurants that actually bother to be part of the neighborhood were pissed about it.
I thought about that, but was too busy. I might try that later this year, though.
>Dogs that eat feces.

Yet another reason why it baffles me that anyone wants one of these things as a pet.

Cats are smart enough not to eat feces, theirs or anyone else's. They're also smart enough to do their best to bury their own feces so they don't stink up your place.
I have always wondered why the Maidenhead Locator System did not catch on outside of Amateur Radio.

It converts geographic positions into short strings of characters, but notably, a truncated string still points to the same location, just less precisely.

For example, the ferry building in San Francisco is CM87TT20, but CM87TT is a larger square that encompasses Treasure Island as well, and CM87 is most of the bay area.
Do you mean under performing as in proxying performance? We do know there are some code paths that need to be optimized. For 1.2 we will be working on those issues, and for many of them, we already have solutions (in many cases more than one approach). A warmed up Kong usually runs with sub-millisecond latency, the plugins can usually add more to it, but sure there are rough edges, especially in p99. We'll just need to pick up the best ideas that have already been proposed, either by us or our community. For some issues we have a public pull requests in place for discussion. And some of them we have developed in close collaboration with the community or customers. We sure want to be lean and fast. Especially now that Kong is used as a sidecar proxy in service mesh.
I think on the contrary we need to seriously reconsider these tools that don't make sense at the scale of the vast majority of projects. It's sad we've gone full circle to the 00's, didn't miss those Java EE days of real big boy tools.

Edit: current real-life example: I am currently developing a core tool for helping business users of a big industrial group. Client is amazed I was able to quickly develop a custom tool to answer their business needs.

The average case where people go to the ER they don't have a week to Google and research their options. More likely minutes to hours. You can definitely find some value in the US medical system if you have the time, like coupons for prescription drugs that aren't covered.
But yes, don't go to the ER for non-emergencies and you'll save money and everyones resources. Hopefully that's basic logic to most people.
This only shows why running we now have 20 candidates running for president. They get a huge platform to expand their reach (good for both the issues they care about and their personal brand) with almost no downside (even if not pilfering their campaign funds they will raise enough money to travel the country effectively promoting for future book sales or a tv show).
