I love the A-10 and it is better than the fast-movers for anti-insurgency work (Especially if you take cost into consideration). However it is not the best as it is still colossal overkill.

There were plans for light attack propeller aircraft. The US actually bought a bunch of them for the Iraqi airforce and were falling over themselves saying how good they were for the job. The US airforce then trialled their own light attack aircraft (apparently grudgingly) but...

Yes. There are a lot of varied areas of it though so you'll have to be more specific. There are FDA requirements for some software that is quite different then say HIPAA type certifications.

A very gross overview if you know none of it, FDA regulates anything that might involve a patients treatment or care, including recommendations based off of data collected on the patient. HIPAA and other certifications really deal with patient privacy, data access and security more or less.

Of them, FDA is the hurdle for most organizations because they have very detailed regulations and requirements and rightfully are conservative on what gets approved without significant validation.
The U.S. allies don't need much convincing, F-35s sell like hot cakes despite the recent degradation of American foreign policy. With Russia still unable to produce an S-400 missile modification capable to intercept it, this warplane is largely unchallenged in the skies.
Scheme is wayyyy simpler than Forth IMO (even when you include macros and call/cc). I wrote a minimal stack-based language years ago and I still cannot get a handle around Forth. The inner interpreter and immediate words? Even after reading Let over Lambda, Forth is greek to me.

But, to be fair, getting to the point of being able to implement a recursive fibonacci algorithm is not too difficult taking either path.
Actually, I find this incredibly sad. Users should, at the minimum, have the right to delete their comments or detach their username from them.
Honestly for me it's mood dependent. Feel good during the day -> enjoy staying up literally pacing till 2AM. Feel like an unmotivated lump that can't do anything -> sweet, sweet oblivion.

I guess that's related to what another commenter said, that essentially we stay up because it's more fun than the alternative. One thing that works for me as a result is focusing on dreams or stories I tell myself at bedtime to generate fun dreams. Another thing is give myself a goal where bedtime is somehow the reward (I will fold all the laundry and bake cookies, but then I have earned going to sleep) and it will make me feel like going to sleep is desirable even if in actuality laundry and cookies sounded much better.

Everything humans create is subjective reality. Shared fictions are commonly held beliefs in fictional entities. For example, belief in the power of money is a shared fiction.

Depends on how you measure "dominate"? What time period? Do they have more wealth than others at time period dT? Do they think they have more power to direct the wheel of the history at that time dT? History teaches all civilizations fail soon or late.
Again, the fascination despite the facts. Quick is key. That A-10 does the job well in a VERY specific environment. One void of counter air or anti air wherein the launch base is within a reasonable distance to the target. This is highly unique to that AO. Building a CAS capability around a very narrow definition such as that is stupid, and that is why the Air Force isn't doing it.

Some investigative journalism indicates that this is not what happened.

The FAA has different levels of redundancy and uptime requirements based on the outcome of system failure. A system categorized as “catastrophic” failing would lose the plane and all passengers, while “hazardous” might hurt some and kill a few, and so on. The FAA requires that catastrophic systems must have a backup, while hazardous can go without one if it’s reliable enough.

Boeing classified the MCAS as “hazardous” only under certain flight characteristics, and they categorized it as a lower level than hazardous during level flight. This means that the crews designing the specification made the decision to depend upon only a single input, and it appears to have been built to spec[0].

It also appears that the FAA was experiencing internal pressure to delegate more certification authority to Boeing, with disastrous results.

What are the misuse cases, and what does the software try to do about them?
Not OP, but here's how I did solve it:

https://github.com/mschaef/metlog

This was mainly an exploratory thing to learn some new technologies, but the gist is that it's a Clojure/Clojurescript application with HSQLDB on the back end. It runs reliably and has for years, but the more 'roll your own' experience means continually finding out that there's some other bit of missing functionality you either need to implement or live without.

A couple specific observations on various elements of the tech stack:

* HSQLDB - Nice little database, well documented, and has served its purpose well. Just now getting to the point where query lengths on long running time series are a performance issue. I think my mitigation strategy will be to do more in memory.

* core.async - I use this in the front end to manage sourcing data from the server and getting it into the graphing components. Three or four different approaches later, I'm still not sure I fully get how or why this should be used.

* Reagent - Definitely the right choice. About the perfect level of abstraction. Wish I'd spent a bit more time reading the docs ahead of time, though.

* Clojure - This has been a great choice, but to be honest, there's not much code on the server side, so it's not at all heavily used.

* ClojureScript - Also a good choice (Figwheelr helps), but it's fundamentally a different language with different core data structures sitting in a land that's solidly entrenched in JavaScript. That impedence mismatch is a continual low grade annoyance.

* HTML Canvas - Easy to use, but lots of tricky little edge cases to worry about. (The latest being how to find a way to get non-blurry pixel accurate display on a Retina laptop.)
This reminds me of Harrison Bergeron, a story about a dystopian future where any inequality is brutally suppressed.

Yeah, runit is based off of daemontools, I consider orderly a good complement to daemontools/runit when you need some 'order'. In that setup daemontools would be the root of one or many trees.
Saying "it is unfair I can't get away with crime too" is not a defense. And many in fact /are/ already refusing to do so. Witness many privacy laws which explicitly bar storage of citizen data in US jurisdictions - granted some have cynical "so they can access it" motivations. It was why Microsoft of all corporations, one which has been enough of a toady to be caught with NSA in variable names sued hard to demand warrant protection.
The problem with FB is they want all the benefits of a platform without any of the drawbacks.

Or rather, it's the public perception of what FB should be and FB is stuck in the middle juggling with politics.

The L8 manager of our org declared that all projects must be on the JVM, and if the language wasn't Java, then we would need to submit a six pager explaining why. Perhaps he was just being conservative, but to me there's something off-putting when those types of decisions come from managers rather than from the engineers.

That said, our org did manage to have a few projects that aren't Java, so I guess I would have to concede that the Java claim is factually false as well. But it sure doesn't feel like I am empowered to choose something other than Java.
"Stoicism was likely influenced by Buddhism through contact with India during the wars of Alexander the Great, and shares a lot with Buddhism: the whole universe is one vast, living, divine whole."

Universe as a "divine whole" is a concept found in Advaita vedanta, not in Buddhism.

“Life is full of suffering, but that suffering is a path to understanding a larger good.”

Again wrong. Understanding true nature of reality, any experience happiness,suffering, neutral is considered a path. Not just suffering.

> Apple has begun storing Russian user data in Russia in compliance with Russian data storage laws

I don't see how this is inherently bad.

First of all Russia's intelligence agencies get access to any data belonging to Russian citizens anyway, simply because those citizens are under Russian legislation.

I don't know the details, however note that the GDPR also imposes restrictions on exporting the data of EU citizens outside the EU.
For example exports are only allowed in countries or territories that have enough safeguards for the protection of that data.

This is important for privacy, for example if our local security agencies mishandle my data, I can sue them, I can vote for the opposition, I can convince other people to do the same, etc, however if a foreign agency mishandles my data, like those of Australia, I can do absolutely nothing about it.

And from the state's point of view, having access to the data of your citizens is also a matter of national security. I can definitely see why a rival of the USA wouldn't want the data of its citizens stored on servers located in the USA.

---

Companies that want access to the Australian market will succumb to Australian demands of course.

The problem for Australia however is that their local companies will get hurt in the international marketplace.

For example Fastmail, which competes with Google by promising better privacy, is now in a very awkward situation of having to explain how this bill is affecting them and what they are doing about it. In a market dominated by Google, hurting your local companies that compete with Google is downright stupid and will have an effect on their economy.
I would guess at the end of the day it wouldn't end up being a totally separate type rating. It would be additional training on the differences. But I think Boeing wanted to avoid the requirement even for that.

I mostly agree, but it is lazy, sloppy, and unnecessary to combine “gay” and “flight attendant” at the hip as multiple people have done in this post.

As for deciding “what that makes me”, I was trying to obliquely save room for the case another poster brought up, namely being gay or bisexual.
Never realized how easy it was to manipulate a midi file. You can even convert a midi file to csv. Perfect. Thanks!
This is excellent, thank you. I'll be learning along with you.
Doesn't matter. The flight characteristics are still drastically different toward the extremes, and you never assume away the extremes. You now have to guarantee that every crew when faced with an MCAS disable situation that required piloting in a way that the MCAS would kick in can successfully mimic the action of the MCAS with only the manual trim wheels.

I'm not saying that's impossible, but you'd want your aircrew to have sufficient training to be a stand in for the automation.
Interesting idea, but I think many file upload sites will soon shift to encryption before uploading (like Firefox Send), making filters impossible.

Hay fever cure: Sufferers should have to Intercourse reduce symptoms
My favorite mistake The Economist made was a survey they ran. They compared UK to US, and supposedly one of the questions was:

What better explains the origins of the Earth?

A) Evolution.

B) The Bible.

It's unclear whether they literally asked that question, or they asked about origins of life and just had a copyediting mistake in the summary of the results. They ignored my letter about it, though, so I suspect the former :)
I'm afraid that BBC and Google are both news of fake. More simply just fake news.

Isn't the bitcoin block reward a form of inflation? Of course the block reward shrinks over time and eventually only transaction fees will be used to pay miners but there is no reason this has to happen. If the block reward instead increased by 2% every year inflation could last forever.
At a large organisation I worked at years ago we used to call it Coder Shopping - when a manager would do the rounds trying to find someone who would say "yes" in a situation like this.

Invariably there would be someone who would, and if you were the person who had initially refused you probably wouldn't even be aware that it had happened until the bug reports came in...
This article is okay, but contains some misinformation about the origin and principles of Stoicism. The NYT article itself was an absolute disgrace, completely misrepresenting what Stoicism is.

It's good we on HN, unlike military pilots, have no bias and can focus on things that matter in warplane mission performance.
I would suspect that training a 737 pilot on differences in the new MAX would still be far less involved than training them to understand an Airbus, which is a totally different philosophy in control systems and piloting.
It does seem like an interesting idea, but somehow it feels like it's for a very specific audience. Isn't one of smartphone's pros - the ability to fit something alike to computer into a pocket size device? If my productiveness is affected by the device I'm using it's easier for me to jump over to another device, and not make my first device alike to the other device that I could have moved to. So it's a great option for someone who let's say doesn't have or want a laptop but still wants a portable computer(?) for $200.
So having an absurdly incompetent engineer implementing this fix isn't a management problem?
Books to Understand Mathematical Foundations of Machine Learning
Why do you suppose that is? I don't have kids myself, but if I ever did I think I would prioritize the incorporation of stoicism into their upbringing.

Just as a stab in the dark, perhaps you perceive the philosophy of stoicism as being orthogonal to a healthy amount of flippancy in life? If that's the case then I would make the case that the two concepts aren't actually mutually exclusive.

Yes, this is it! The default behaviour of gitlab was actually rather unexpected to me in that it cleverly gives the pull request a version which persists after rebasing etc. But I actually expected that drop down to let me switch between the commits in the PR. We use a process of amending PRs using fixups and only rebasing at the end because it allows other developers to easily pull the branch. Being able to step through the commits would be the best of both worlds.
My first is on the way. I can't say for sure what my views will be in 5 years, but even with pregnancy I know there are things that could go wrong. Will I suffer if something goes awry? Absolutely. But will I let it adversely affect my future state of being? I hope not.

"So it goes"
Look who didn't read the article.
"Compression" applies very much to grammatical variants of words. It's why the only bizarre irregular verbs in a language tend to be the ones that get used all the time - be, do, go etc - because for anything more obscure the brain just forgets the special case and applies the general rule.

Steven Pinker's book Words and Rules is a great layman-oriented read if this sort of thing interests you.
I read this thread earlier and became frustrated by the number of times people repeated the same old misunderstandings. Thanks for taking the time to try to correct them.

Having a critical system, whether mechanical, electric or hydraulic is an unavoidable fact of aviation. For example on the airbus if there is a complete failure of the fly by wire system the plan is to fly the aircraft using only the trim for pitch control and the rudder for lateral control. I'm sure pilots routinely give this a go in the simulator, but I'd be very surprised if the expected outcome was much above a controlled crash. It's a case of managing the risk of a problem against the hazards.

An AoA disagree warning will probably be written up as a fault requiring written authorization to depart from a maintenance base. The pilot would be expected to be extra vigilant in avoiding flight close to the stall until the error was corrected. Perhaps settling for easier approaches, longer runways etc.

All pretty normal aviation practice.

Personally, I do hope you are right and that the direction this country is moving toward a more egalitarian society where a pre-existing condition doesn't mean a death sentence and that we have social programs in place in order to support a base level of retirement. Yet I also fear that me living in a liberal, leftist bubble (living in Boston, working with Democratic candidates, working in tech) prevents me from seeing what other people feel and think. Watching Fox News or Tucker Carlson opens one's eyes about what kind of "news" other people are ingesting.
Samsung Bets Big on 5G Technology
One could easily write and an article titled “Stoicism’s Appeal to the Poor and Disenfranchised.” Power and wealth is orthogonal to Stoic Philosophy. It counters much of today’s culture of blame of jealously of others and offers a more fulfilling and pragmatic outlook on one’s circumstances, rich or poor.
Not OP. Anecdotally stoicism does nothing for your capability to nurture your children or make actively wise choices. The best example of this is the painfully obvious one of Marcus Aurelius and his son Commodus.

The main failure for the Roman empire was that he failed to name a successor worthy to the task, so Commodus got the gig. I don't know what his failures as a father were or were there any but Commodus came out just wrong either way.

Either this teaches us one of two things or both: 1. even a wise sage is unable to heal his family or 2. Stoicism does not grant you universal wisdom.

Either way, the outcome is that stoicism is obviously not a universal remedy.

If you read Marcus Aurelius' Meditations, the take out message is that the world is shit and people are horrible, but that is no reason not to behave as a gentleman and carry yourself with dignity.

Stoicism can be applied by personal choice to various situations in ones life, but it's hard to make it into a socially pro-active philosophy.

And yes, I generalized whole lot of stuff based on one example only. Call me bayesian.
