Agree. I lean conservative and generally feel that the market will find the best solutions. If solar is economically superior to coal then it will replace coal. We don't need government policies and tax incentives to make that happen.
This is how I felt as a kid on ADHD medicine, except for the "keep up with everyone else who is on gear" part. Instead it's "to conform with the traditional notion of how a student should behave".

It's really horrifying that they already give these types of drugs to elementary school children, none of whom are capable of weighing the pros and cons.
Intelligence can mean a great many things.

If we are simply making people better at cognitive tests then whats the point really? Nothing exciting there.

If we are making more Einsteins and Steve Jobs then Im more inclined to say we are increasing our intelligence in a meaningful way.

I think we need to be careful about our scales and definitions when speaking on the true nature of human intelligence and intellect otherwise we're all just blowing hot air. IQ is an antiquated measure of intelligence for example. If we are talking about extra IQ points then who cares.
Inbox’s custom categories were created using simple filter rules. You can technically do that in GMail also, but only for folders, which are independent of the social/promotions/etc tabs. It seems to me that the ability to create custom tabs via filters would not be a particularly unreasonable feature.
I'm a bad grandson, so I have no idea! I'll have to ask.
"To Pachikov (one of the founders), Evernote wasn’t just another app or a way to capitalize on Silicon Valley’s burgeoning obsession with personal productivity. It was an extension of the human mind itself that would let users remember everything."

TFA made many good points about distractions into merchandise, missing the group discussion opportunity, etc.

But the critical element that killed Evenote is it's unreliability and data loss/corruption.

If anyone actually uses Evernote as intended -- the tool to extend your memory -- the sync and storage functions simply can NEVER lose or corrupt data.

Absolute reliability is more critical than any other feature.

Yet they failed on this one key function.

My anecdata is that while evaluating apps for gathering info & taking notes, Evernote's feature list came out on top in nearly every comparison -- but it had significant reports of unreliability. Disqualified. Period. Never looked back and no regrets, especially since it is still evidently not fixed.

Developers must distinguish between general usability features (e.g., supporting platform X or data format Y) and critical functions.

General features will lose you some users, but you can get them once you get around to implementing.

Critical functions failing or missing will keep people away no matter what you do, forever. And beyond that is the general damage you'll cause to other people's lives by, in this case, corrupting their highly valuable data and memories.
I have seen this. For example, some online shops, newspapers.
The panhandle is cool like that (we used to go to priest lake a lot), southern Idaho reminds me more of Utah (a lot of scrub and irrigated farming going on).
I like the concept - do you have any plans for a mobile client and how the UX would translate to smaller displays? In terms of essentials, version history would be on my list, perhaps using git as a backend so that you can access the notes with other tools as well.
I was just reading about how far out into space the ejecta from the Chicxulub impact went and it really brought home how possible it is that life from Earth migrated elsewhere, Mars being an obvious possible destination. But as one gets further out, it seems less and less likely that any life found has terrestrial origins. I am very much interested in knowing if there is any independently evolved life in the oceans of Europa or any of the other ice moons.
Interesting... there should be a good one available. Will be following this post.
This is a valid point. I just took an inventory of all the notifications I have opted into. For me it is Gmail, Discord, Slack, and a custom built admin interface I use for work. So I have accepted 4 out of the hundreds (or thousands) of notification prompts I see every year.

Making it opt-in would still allow valid use cases for notifications, while not annoying users as it has become for sites that are just hoping ou would break down and accept.

I also hate that the only "negative" option is "not now". Why is there not a "never allow" option?
Haha, yes that is a good way to explain it. Moore isn't necessarily wrong, but I don't think he is 100% correct either. Not everybody is a software engineer who can spend all day writing code. There are a lot of folks who write shell scripts and the like who need to do talk to computers without getting into machine code and Forth. Does a lawyer need to know the machine? Sounds inefficient use of time.
Yes, I should have included the rise of the environmental movement. And I came very close to including the crying American Indian ad, it was very impactful on me.
It is general true for any big organization. In my own firm, I could see the rush into machine learning direction as a door way to a promotion. Any engineer or PM who works on a ML related project and is able to ship it would have a higher chance of getting promoted. I could also say the same for the usage of AWS products. In the end, I often see projects resembling the messy mashup of AWS products to form a unnecessary complex ML solution to a mosquito problem. It’s a waste yes, but sure will make it looks challenging and boost people to promotions.
It's hard to interpret a push notification as anything other than a sign that it's a shady site.
Most of the internet is clickbait these days.
They're in the same bucket as those who use light gray text on a white background.
Open Preferences and search "Notif". There's a blascklist/whitelist and a "no, and don't ever ask" checkbox.

I've always loved digging into the settings when I get a new web browser, IDE, or whatever. I know a lot of people don't bother configuring their software, but it just makes me shudder to imagine living with whatever defaults the vendor sets.
You need to specify your field. What's your article about?

Different fields do things entirely differently, and short of publishing in Nature journals are very specific to their fields.
in most cases, people are only getting called up for a reference because the applicant specifically chose to list them. if the only person they could think of to use as a reference has nothing good to say (or gives subtle negative signals) that's a pretty strong sign there's something wrong with the fellow.
Good at being a pathfinding and point-by-point navigation tool, not as an actual map. Their completely broken treatment of street and POI labels makes the product very annoying when trying to preplan a journey, get yourself oriented in a place you don't know, or evaluate alternative routes.
That would make you a wildly uncommon start-up CEO, to the point that it’s too fantastical to believe, given the ubiquitous, widespread low compensation paid in start-ups (even after accounting for an unreasonably favorable liquidity event and generously agreeing to assume an equity price from that to apply to non-liquid equity at the time of an offer).

Start-up pay is so universally bad compared even to low or mid tier public companies. I’m not sure it could be possible to use start-ups as any kind of counter argument to a question of low pay.
Definitely depends on what the topic of the article is I should think.
The fact that this article is about jupyter notebooks, and apparently doesn't know that gitignore exists tells me that this is probably written by a data scientist who is in the process of "discovering" solutions to long-solved problems in software development.
@antoncohen - We will provide easily installable downloads for non-commercial, experimentation, and individual use which should make getting started with Chef just as easy today as it was yesterday.
What's the logic for publishers, here? "If we add this feature, we will immediately bounce 19% of our traffic." Why would you do that? Or is this a scam thing where that 19% just proved they aren't suckers, so you don't want to waste your time on them?
Google has killed some of its offerings, but the core products of search, ads, drive, and mail are still there.

(... Inbox being only a UI on top of the mailbox and not the mailbox itself, not unlike Microsoft Schedule+ went away but the underlying Outlook functionality remained).
I have a personal google apps domain and don’t mind this.

Being on a slow, stable update release track means I have the better version of the product IMO. I don’t need the latest flashy updates pushed immediately to my gmail as long as the battle-tested version gets there eventually.

Also, it’s ultimately an enterprise product and rapid changes aren’t appropriate for that space anyway.
>>This then leads to a situation in which many people do not have access to natural resources with which to make their own living and therefore their only choice is to work for people who do have those resources. In that sense their state of being employed by others instead of themselves is not voluntary.

People would have to work even if all land was divided equally across all people.

Furthermore, there's no fundamental reason why every person born deserves to share equally in all natural resources. The act of being born does not add value to the world. A family can have 10 children per generation and massively increase the share of natural resources they control under your moral code.

Finally, even if someone's share of natural resources is unfairly small, it doesn't follow that the person offering a job is violating their rights by offering one that doesn't meet some minimum standard.

If you want to make a case that someone is being unfairly denied natural resources, then that should be the issue dealt with, by gathering evidence and proving the case in a court of law. The alleged injustuce shouldn't be used as a flimsy excuse to restrict other people's rights.
You're conflating a few issues.

(1) River flow is an ecological issue, as underflowing or surge flowing a river has devastating consequences to everything living in it. This is usually what's fought over (example: TN-GA-AL-FL legal battles).

(2) Gravitational potential energy is not something that can be depleted in the way you're talking about. If Idaho is at 3,000 ft above sea level, whether or not they build a hydro dam doesn't impact the ability of Washington or Oregon to build hydro dams at lower elevations.
Disk was expensive back in the day.

Depending on your compute needs, it could have made more sense to do fully-remote X.

So if many people were running intensive like MATLAB or Mathematica, then root/swap-over-NFS made sense so that you could use your local workstations local CPU all to yourself(s) and not bog down the central server. If most people were doing modest things (xterm, mail, browsing), then running everything on the central server and displaying it on dumb X11 terminals wasn't a bad idea.
Go for open source tools then. If they are good enough for people to get use out of, they usually stay around. At least I can't think of an example where one disappeared for good.
what.cd. I only used it sparingly, but apparently they had a lot of rare releases that existed nowhere else. Vanished overnight with the feds taking it down.
Going back to Gmail, it is pretty baffling the features it is missing from inbox. Lacking bundles is bad, but having no equivalent to archive/mark all as read is terrible. I used to do a quick scroll through my junk to verify I didn't actually need anything, then click "archive all". Now I have to individually select each individual email to do a group archive/delete.
The protections are not to protect us from the mice, it’s to protect the mice from us. The value of the mice is in their purity. Imagine basing a 1bn investment in a new drug based on trials that it turned out were tainted because a mouse caught something from a human handler beforehand. Hence 17k a mouse.
Washingtonian here: they drill in the negative effects of hydro into our heads in high school civics class (but it’s primarily centered around fish). We still do it, but have began removing many of the older less productive dams in the state (eg on Elwa a few years back).

Chef Workstation is your answer - try it out

The article mentions people who produce more Klotho, so clearly that variation has occurred:

> Some people carry a genetic variation that causes them to produce higher levels of Klotho than average in their bodies. Dr. Dubal and her colleagues identified a group of healthy old people with the variant and tested their cognition.

> They scored better than people who make an average level of Klotho. “It’s not like they didn’t undergo cognitive decline,” said Dr. Dubal. “It’s just that they started off higher.”

I'm a bit torn between your perspective and the parent comment. I accept the logic of your argument.

But that doesn't mean the parent comment couldn't be correct. Klotho could have side effects (doesn't everything have side effects?) and that could be why we (and mice) don't produce more of it. I don't think that's a bad hypothesis.

Of course it's just a hypothesis and, as you point out, it doesn't logically follow that our production of Klotho is perfectly optimized (Optimized for what? Fitness? Fitness is a moving target). But, on the whole, I'm skeptical of a hormone that makes us smarter and wards off brain degeneration but does nothing else.

They could beat you in their productive phase and suffer while coming down. Lose-lose.
I totally agree that this is frustrating for erudite tech users, but I'd say calling Google a "disorganized mess of a company" is kinda stretching things. The last quarterly earnings for GOOG were up 21% year/year. That's pretty insane for a company of this size.

The way they operate is annoying when it's one of your favorite products that isn't pulling it's weight, but it's hard to argue that the strategy isn't sound.
The reason I don't want a mail program is because 99.9% of my email is utter garbage, so the idea that I need to take up bandwidth and diskspace and processor time on my machine to basically download gigabytes of unwanted advertising, scams, phishing attempts, etc, is ridiculous.
NSF press conference on first result from Event Horizon Telescope project
Go is faster than most languages so I'm not sure it's related to the recent CPU since every languages are benchmarks against the same CPU.

"The complete lack of push/pop instructions also shows a massive defect in the understanding of how the x86 architecture is supposed to be used."

I'm sure the Go team has very skilled people in that field, so I'm not sure what you mean.

You have to understand that the Go compiler does not look for the best optimized code, it's a balance between performance / compile speed and "debuggability".
Show HN: Editor.js – the new open-source editor with clean JSON output
It definitely depends on how it’s cooked. I’ve had quite a few of these and certain places tend to make them oily. I’ve found that to be the case when ordering a Beyond Meat patty as well from Carl’s Jr./Hardys even though they aren’t nearly as oily when I make them myself.

I'm going to echo a lot of people's response here, and say that your best bet is to reduce and/or eliminate your dependence on Amazon. As far as IG, I think that it's a channel worth pursuing because your product fits the platform so well.

Just an idea: you mentioned that you had a successful Kickstarter in 2014. If you still have the list of backers, and their emails, this is a good opportunity to start an email list, and tell your story to them. The primary goal will be to tell them why you're not on Amazon, and on IG, and how it happened.

It is an opportunity to also direct them to your new selling channel (or tell them that you are working on one). You can also appeal to your customer to lend your their support (I don't know how, but it is a good opportunity to figure out how that support could look like).
Hi!

We have been working on this project more than three years. Several large media projects help us to test and debug the Editor, to make its core more stable.
At the same time we significantly improved the API.

Editor.js key features:

- Block-styled

- Clean data output

- API pluggable

- Open source

What does it mean «block-styled»

In other editors the workspace is provided by single contenteditable element in where you can create different HTML markup.

Editor.js workspace consists of separate Blocks: paragraphs, headings, images, lists, quotes, etc. Each of them is an independent contenteditable element (or more complex structure) provided by Plugin and united by Editor's Core.

At the same time, most useful features as arrow-navigation, copy & paste, cross block selection and others works almost as in the familiar editors.

About clean data

As you can see on the last screen, there are clean JSON output: list of structural Blocks with their content description.

You can use this data to easy render in Web, native mobile/desktop application, pass to Audio Readers, create templates for Facebook Instant Articles, AMP, RSS, create chat-bots and many other.

Also, clean data can be useful for backend processing: sanitizing, validation, injecting an advertising or other stuff, extracting Headings, make covers for social networks from Image Blocks and other.

About API

A key value of the Editor is the API. All main functional units of the Editor.js — Blocks, Inline Formatting Tools, Block Tunes — are provided by external plugins that uses simple and powerful API.

Editor.js is more than just an editor. It is a new born open-source community of developers and contributors.

Anyone can create new cool API features and plugins. Thanks for your interest.

Hope you enjoy Editor.js.

completely agreed, and you are getting downvoted as well for no reason, the amount of brainwashing is astounding...

I am completely for solar and glad that solar is getting cheaper, it's a more environmentally friendly way of generating power and now it's also getting even cheaper, what's not to like, good for enviornment and the finances as well.. no real reason then for anyone not to support it
> dog-shit-on-the-pavement capital

Oh gosh. The two eternal hazards of my childhood (that my parents would yell at me about) were dog shit and broken glass. I distinctly remember going to a school playground when I was about 6, and wanted to crawl through a plastic tunnel, but didn't when I saw a huge pile of shit in the middle.

Now, pooper scooper laws took care of the former, but people still get drunk off their ass and leave bottles everywhere.
> But it will make harder to get started with Chef

IMHO this is already very hard to do. I tried recently and chef.io is an impenetrable labyrinth of different products, white sheets, data sheets, customer stories, and "Contact Sales" buttons.
> you get a company that throws stuff at the wall to see if it sticks, and if it doesn't kills it immediately.

I would love if they followed this strategy. Instead, you have products like reader and inbox with many passionate users, which demonstrate some wall stickiness, and they're killed rather than monetized.

Monetize me. I recognize that the things I like cost money. Figure out how to make money off me! I would have accepted ads in reader or inbox. Hell, I would have paid dollars to make those ads go away even.
I pull out my phone and use Beorg, which syncs with my Dropbox.
The next time I'm at my computer, the notes are right there in Emacs.
to me I conceptualize evolution as just a process like water filtering through a sieve is. So I don't see why using the word 'drives' is justified either.
What prevents companies from using those downloads for commercial use? Is it "just" a copyright violation (i.e., the same thing that prevents them from paying for one copy of Windows and running a thousand), or is there something in the code (limits on scaling, time bombs, etc.) to make them unsuitable for production use?
Soulseek is great, but you're essentially taking a gamble hoping that you aren't downloading some shitty transcode.
Soccer players still ‘benefit’ from drug use. A much larger issue was largely ignored by professional bodies. FIFA still only has a 2 year ban for someone caught, and does not try that hard to find users.

According to a statement of one of UK Sport's Independent Sampling Officers (ISO), "If a club knows in advance we're coming, and the club suspects one of their players, they keep him off training and his name doesn't appear on the list I am given." In the 1999–2000 season, testers were present at just 32 of the over 3,500 league matches, taking samples from two players of each side. Compared to other sports in the UK, like cricket, cycling or athletics, footballers are far less likely to be tested.[13] A case of high-profile was the one of Rio Ferdinand, who missed a drug test in September 2003 and found himself punished for it, being banned for eight months.[14] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doping_in_association_footba...
Disgusted by the spin. They are making it so more people will pay them by saying "we are more open and free". Dishonest.
Unfair conparison. Growing titanium bones is most likely unfeasible, if even possible. Producing Klotho is not infeasible, it is being done in our bodies. The question is the amount, which I assume should be already finetuned. That's why I called it too easy of a "hack".
> elsewhere on the same fantastically web 1.0 style site[1].

Refreshing! I want to read that site even if I don't care too much about colours.

(The only thing I kind of miss is if it could be even easier to read on mobile.)
If you are smart, you do not work hard.
Instead, it turns into a sort of competition, who has to work the least, to extract the most benefits and do the least amount of work. Hacking in that regard, is a competition of parasites.

My pet theory is, that having suffered for nearly 10.000 years under castes of priests and noble men unwilling to lift a finger, humanity has developed a near instinctive hatred for "parasitic" entitys, who ledge themselves to society extracting value without returning anything to society.

The moment, external circumstances in such a system create a down turn, the whole thing explodes, viciously attacking the non-contributors, trying to exterminate them and redistribute there ill gathered gains back to society.

Take a look at france during the revolution for example. Sometimes the parasites, manage to redirect the hatred towards internal or external outgroups, like the jews in germany during ww2, but in the end, the mobrule undoes most of the parasitic growth anyway by sheer brute force and endurance of turmoil.
