> Commonmark (https://commonmark.org) exists, has a fairly well defined standard

Commonmark didn't really accomplish much in terms of standardization. The problem is that they didn't take seriously comments that they didn't support everything they needed to support in order for it to be a standard. The most prominent example is support for math, which is extremely common. That wouldn't be so bad if there were support to escape processing, but they weren't willing to support that either.

The response is to tell anyone that they need to look for an implementation with the proper extensions for equations or whatever you might need that's not currently supported. There's not much to be gained from having a standard if it doesn't ensure document compatibility among competing implementations. Commonmark is nothing but yet another version of markdown.
There was a unique reference implementation for Markdown, too. It was ignored and extended by various popular services. If anybody fully implemented Org-mode outside of Emacs, it would likely have run into the same issue.

This is my point of view precisely.
Network Boot to the Rescue, with UEFI and IPv6
Your basic point is spot on, it isn't simple.

The challenge I think is to keep two things separated, one is the flight control laws that the system is implementing to keep the plane in the air (to the best of its ability), and the other is the situational awareness indicators for the pilots so that they can tell what what the plane is "thinking" about how it is flying (or not).

The closest analogy I can come up with is the SQL explain command. That command will generate the complete decision tree for how records are included or excluded from a SQL query. The air equivalent might be display that shows the flight status, and the state of the instruments that are being used to determine that status. And then it is up to the pilots (or DBA :-) to figure out if what is happening is what they think should be happening.

To use this particular example, it is, in my opinion, negligent on Boeing's part not to include an indicator for every change in the flight control laws. If MCAS activates to avoid a stall it should always indicate that it is, and why it is activated. It has been reported that this was an "extra price" option for the jet, and it is that choice that makes it feel negligent to me.

Generally, there seems to be enough indications with backups in the cockpit so that the pilot can ascertain what is going on with the aircraft reliably (backups and such), but what was missing here was, again in my opinion, was the rationale the plane was using for the flight laws it was implementing being available as well.
What? You obviously didn't read what I wrote.

From the guys who are STILL flogging the Trump collusion fake news...
The third factor to add to your list is that the design of MCAS makes the plane unrecoverable in some situations.

On the Ethiopia Air flight, it looks increasingly like the pilots knew what to do, but even after MCAS was disabled it was impossible to recover control because once trim was maxed out, adjusting the physical control trim wheels may have literally taken more brute strength than the pilots had, there was no way to reactivate electric trim control without also reactivating MCAS, and going nose-down to reduce load on the control surfaces to allow manual trim adjustment was infeasible because this all happened at 1000 ft. altitude.
This may be naive, but isn't this the moral equivalent of breathing through a straw?
Does Banksy get permission to vandalize people property?

I don’t think so.
I believe I am the kind of person who would just say "Go ahead, shut it down if that's the only alternative. If you would like me to sign a deal to restructure the company, then I'll happily do it, but the company needs to pay me a one time cash bonus that reflects the value of the shares that I am forfeiting".

I am not naive enough to believe it would work, as they would probably find a way to screw me regardless, but my stance would be firm.

After my experience with startups I have become completely intolerant to corporate greed and injustice, so these days I am purely in a business transaction with my employer and I know exactly what to expect and when to expect it (which is why I get paid in RSUs rather than stock options). I like to think I wouldn't fall prey to this sort of petty begging.

I think "5 whys" works great for software dev, i still rely on it for RCA often.

That said, I really wish the healthcare industry would stop using ideas from manufacturing. LEAN, 5 whys, etc. came from manufacturing widgets, humans(patients) are not widgets. They should use their brains and come up with unique ideas to their unique problems rather then piggy backing off ideas that aren't meant to deal with one-off's.

This is also why i left healthcare and will not go back. Such an important sector, ripe for disruption, it seems to be lacking so much.
Have you seen Wikipedia's current events portal? [1] It's pretty much what you describe there, sans critique (level 1, factual reporting).

In trying to escape the aggregators and filter bubbles, I have blocked all news sources on my phone (including HN!) save for Wikipedia. Since the stories are only high-priority and slowly evolving, I spend a lot less time on reading news, and am happier for it.

It comes down to a cognitive trade off. No one can or wants to remember or contemplate the tens, hundreds or thousands of people whose efforts went into completing something. It's just easier, calorically speaking, to give the attention to a few.

There is a already a crisis of invasive surveillance, profiling and profiting from stalking users. There is also government surveillance that can't be thwarted with its own panopticon of secret orders, secret courts and secret processes.

Both of the above need to be urgently reined in to retain some sense of accountability and democracy. And these efforts including awareness are predominantly coming from outside the technical community.

When the problem is concentrated global monopolies and power how can centralizing more control be the solution? And yet these seem to be the only solutions from the community.

No, you are asked to withdraw if you fail 2 math courses out of the 5 courses you take in your first term. Most people take 2 math courses, a CS course, an English course (required), and an elective.

You can fail your elective and they won't care, but that's really unusual since people choose easier courses for that.

I think this analysis is missing the main point of this kind of agreement, and that is that in the worst case scenario -- the graduate can't find employment, or income can't support the student loan payments -- this agreement should be better than straight loans. From another article [1]: "At Messiah College, students who opt for the school's ISA will pay between 3 and 3.5 percent of their future income for a set period of time. Payments are waived if a graduate's salary drops below $25,000 a year." (Of course, I don't know if this example is representative of all of these agreements)

On one hand, I could see this working for students going for degrees with less job certainty than comp sci. But on the other hand, this does seem like treating a symptom rather than the causes, like we're encouraging too many people to go for degrees that don't lead to gainful employment or self-sufficiency.

You're ranting about Saturn and Jupiter for some reason. Why don't you calm down and look at page eight of the paper that Veritasium video was based on: https://ve42.co/luminet "Image of a spherical black hole with thin accretion disk Astronomy and Astrophysics, vol. 75, no. 1-2, May 1979, p. 228-235"

Look at that last image, and squint at it until it gets fuzzy. Lo and behold, a fuzzy coffee mug stain!

Perhaps it was a mistake for him to make the focus of the video on the physics of black holes, rather than the limitations of state of the art radio interferometry... but I don't think so.

Not true and a willful misinterpretation of the phrase "toxic masculinity".

The PNF wouldn't have sensed anything because his hand wouldn't have been on the stick.

The premise of the Popular Mechanics article is that for a significant period, each of the pilots thought that they were the PF and were unaware that the other pilot was making stick inputs at the same time. This is unlikely, because the Airbus has a clear "dual input" warning. If you read the transcript, you can see that there's actually quite a lot of discussion between the pilots about who is in control. It was only the captain who had any clear idea of the correct control inputs to make, and he wasn't seated at the controls at all, so linked sticks wouldn't have made any difference to him.
> That appears to be exactly RecordIO.

I suppose you mean "exactly" in a figurative way. Riegeli is definitely inspired by RecordIO and is meant as a successor to it but it's not RecordIO.

> Is there a reason that doesn't meet your requirements?

I need to store timeseries with fast lookup by timestamp. Riegeli doesn't support this out of the box. If I had discovered it before I built ChunkIO, I probably would've pulled the low-level code out of it and added timeseries support on top. Or maybe not. Reliability is very important to me and it's risky to use work-in-progress software that may or may not have any production footprint (I'm no longer with Google so I don't know if they use it internally.)

Malware authors are all already moving their payloads to https sites, so this will be useful for about a year until it's been worked around.

Fun fact: https is a great way to mask your malware payload from filtering proxies. So now corporate laptops have client-side HTTPS filtering, which have really stupid filter rules that break existing valid use cases of downloading files. So the users then turn the filters off, and now all the malware gets through. Yay https! We may not be secure, but we've got privacy, damn it!
This is honestly a very inconsequential release as far as the project is concerned. But after JavaFX got split off from the general Java SE distribution following Java 11, it’s simply no longer acceptable for some small GUI application like the demo suite here to require JavaFX. Require tens of MB from a third-party site to run the demo app, or rewrite in Swing? Unfortunately, despite Swing’s relative inferiority the choice is clear.
This is not the problem. MCAS in itself sadly is the problem.

They had to solve the issue that the pitch-up moment shouldn't be accelerating on its own just depending on AoA, which was (aerodynamically) inevitable without automated adjustments due to the placement of the engines.

They had to resort to the worst possible cludge, since they weren't even allowed to add new electrical systems (which would have caused a recertification and/or a retraining), so they resorted to an already existing system (assisted trimming by autopilot).

The effect of MCAS is only "fixed" by manually adjusting the trim, which involves moving a jackscrew which holds the last section of the elevator at a fixed angle. Unfortunately the required force of moving this jackscrew increases with the airspeed. There is no easy way out. A bit more background can be found here: https://www.satcom.guru/2018/11/stabilizer-trim.html

Btw, the extra price item was an AoA disagree warning. This is related to MCAS in a way like an odometer failure to traction control. It wouldn't have helped, if pilots stuck to their memory items and checklist (which they have to: they recognize runaway trim and have to react accordingly).

To get a slight feeling what it means to have runaway trim (without assistance which they had to disable in concert with MCAS) please have a look at this video:

I sometimes think that Org-mode suffers in the same way that SGML lost to HTML, SOAP lost to XML-RPC, Atom lost to RSS, XML lost to JSON, and so on.

The simpler format often ends up being more widely used precisely because of its simplicity, not despite it.

Technically, if Banksy had sprayed the truck it would have become way more valuable than the bakery, after all an original Banksy you could drive around would likely value at the top end of his work.
Is this really true though?

From what I have read it sounds like part of the problem is that manually adjusting the trim wheel requires more strength than at least some pilots possess due to the mechanical forces on the plane. I don't think it's reasonable to expect simulators to replicate those types of forces.
I'm thinking it's not a platform for managing projects as much as a platform to aggregate a group of people interested in a project/cause.

I don't think it's as plain as you do. That he despised their religious views doesn't mean they didn't influence him and his work, even against his will and preference — in fact, in a way that accords with (my understanding of) Bloom's own views on how influence operates.

I'm also not sure how his family's death in the Holocaust is related to Bloom's view of the Inklings' Christianity; Christianity was at most peripherally involved in that particular instance of persecution, as I understand it.
Vandalism is universally bad because why?
Wasn't aware of it, will try it - thank you!
Universal college education is still a great idea, even if it lowers the value of an individuals degree across the broader society. A world where more people can make meaningful contributions to the development of new technologies, providing healthcare, educate others, and contribute to other areas of human understanding the better the world will be for everyone (short of issues relating to capitalism itself).

The key piece of this is that should any universal college education legislation pass, it needs to be designed in such a way that we don't make the focus of college be the same as high school where the goal is to make sure everyone can pass. And in turn, include a very rigorous minimum education standard in order for an institution to provide government funded education.

Well, I guess that's debatable. However, the way I see it, the old version was presented as a fraction, but couldn't be used as a fraction. The new version is also presented as a fraction and can be used as a fraction.

Perhaps it is due to my old-school nature, but if I wrote a fraction in school that didn't work as a fraction, that would be a mistake, would it not? Especially if it was possible to write it correctly? I couldn't go to my professor and just say, "well, actually, while it looks like a fraction, it was actually just a piece of notation that needed future clarification."

> People HN act like they are entitled to a product they like existing and being supported forever.

No, people here are more predisposed to understand the business needs behind a given service. You're more likely to find people who understand why a service is being shut down here than picking out of a crowd.

However, they're also apt to perform a deeper risk evaluation than the average person. And a glance at Google's track record shows that their services are pretty likely to be axed, and so should not be relied upon.

It's not entitlement to be upset that a paid service is being shuttered in favor of another paid service with fewer (or at least very different) features by the same company. I'm paying for it. If it wasn't profitable, they wouldn't be actively developing a clone of their own product.
