> If you read beyond the first paragraph, you'd learn what the author means by those terms.

Ha, you got me there! (I know the HN guidelines recommend to not suggest that someone hasn't read the article, but in this case I'm fair game.)

When I first skimmed the article, I only had a few minutes between tasks at home, so I didn't catch all the details. But since my initial comment stirred up some controversy, I figured I'd better take a closer read. (Well, still kind of halfway skimming since it is getting rather late here.)

In the next to the last paragraph was the clue that made it connect for me: "The OnGUI of Unity Engine actually uses IMGUI mode."

Aha! So this "immediate mode GUI" business is like OnGUI? Where you draw everything from scratch on every frame, instead of the engine remembering stuff for you?

That's when it all made sense, since I had done a bunch of Unity work 4-5 years ago and some of it involved OnGUI().

60654's comment led me to the current OnGUI documentation [1], where they even call it "Immediate Mode GUI (IMGUI)".

I'm pretty sure they didn't use the IMGUI terminology when I was working in Unity, it was just OnGui() with no other special name. Otherwise I would have remembered "immediate mode".

But it's possible that my memory is not as good as I hope it is!

I'm aware of plenty of exceptions myself.

Forth, and I've even come across an ASM REPL.

Theres exceptions the other way, Awk is interpreted but doesn't as far as I'm aware have a REPL, Sed doesn't either. But then both of those have varying implementations, so there could be exceptions to the exceptions.
Getting too invested? In what, the society that surrounds each individual? I don't think that is possible.

There is a difference between empowerment ("Joe Public can't do much to change society") versus investing (literally putting money into local businesses, demanding better behavior, etc).

I have met a lot of my American peers who believe their individual liberty absolves them of responsibility to the society they live in, which is entirely opposite: their personal liberty is granted precisely because of the society they live in.
This whining conveniently omits his demotion ten years ago, as well as the fact that a faculty vote was held on the matter.

Exercising free speech is one thing. Challenging student views is fine. Using a required course as a trolling arena and being a pain in the ass to work with is, huge surprise, a great way not to get your contract renewed.
Yeah, right.

I get the impression that the actual Tesla advantage is more in the propulsion and power systems.

The rest of the car is garbage, and areas where the established incumbents should naturally be superior.

But the good news for Tesla is they should be able to improve the build quality and general car/manufacturing stuff relatively quickly now that the important differentiating foundation bits have been done spectacularly, if they can just survive long enough to iterate.
On the other hand "coast to coast" probably just means "freeway, under normal conditions" which is the lowest of bars to clear.

So if they can make it capable of detecting stationary objects they're basically already there.

Still amazingly far from "full" self driving.
Ibuprofen interferes with absorption of one of the B vitamins. Long term use promotes a B vitamin deficiency.
I think you mean GAF (reversed spelling). What is Netflix going to give the NSA? Looks like Osama bin Laden loves House of Cards. What about Amazon? The terrorists use AWS and ordered a bunch of pressure cookers?
Depends on how likely that is. Uber and Lyft choose not to be profitable. Unless demand is so elastic that cutting R&D and raising fares to cover costs never breaks even (the pets.com scenario), there are some big levers for making those companies profitable.

Granted, they could still be profitable and overvalued.
The benefit is that it allows the content of the articles to stand on their own merits, instead of involving the reputation of the author.
I don't know man, imagine all the advertising opportunities they have. They can play ads on screens all over the car the entire ride. They can suggest restaurants and bars and charge them for each customer they bring.
I mean, React is essentially a hack to get an immediate mode API on top of a retain mode platform (DOM), because the immediate mode API scales better to handle complex state.

I'd push that yes, you do have to maintain your state externally in an immediate mode UI, but when you have a lot of "state" that's really just a function of other state, that's exactly what you want.
By that, do you mean there's billions of $$ in Twitch chat, or is the concept too absurd (and hilarious as a result)?
Yes, you can do that. It seems like the vast majority of other people on here have absolutely no clue what they're talking about because they've never used the browser. I have used it about 2 weeks now. Every 15 minutes or so a popup ad shows up which you click to get some brave tokens. It isn't much though. I figure if you botted it 24/7 you would get around 50 cents to 1.50 per day. Probably better stuff to do to make money these days IMO.
Increase the value of shares and options and owned by the very people who made the mistake? Yes, increasing an individual's net worth doesn't exactly discourage future mistakes.
> People already know what they should be doing—but for most, that knowledge doesn’t change behavior. Humans are hard-wired to conserve energy (see “Born to Rest,” September-October 2016, page 9), for example, and to prefer foods that are fatty, salty, and sugary.

This suggests that pharmaceutical interventions that block inflammation may be necessary to check the global epidemic of non-communicable disease.

Really? What about side effects? Why not work on becoming smart instead of telling people to eat pills?

I don't think anyone would argue that a content payment architecture that demands a user endlessly make a stack of decisions isn't doomed to fail.

But that's a criticism of a specific implementation of microtransactions.

In a future Brave / BAT world where a variety of microtransaction experiments can play out, I'd imagine a bunch of un/successful experiments that then start to gain wider adoption depending on the industry / publisher.

Maybe the transaction is just for specific goods, like ebooks, higher quality video feeds etc, or maybe it's a time spent cost with a standardized market rate up to a maximum amount which reflects a weekly / monthly unlimited subscription.

Attention-based microtransactions are much more feasible with something like BAT + Brave (with its on-device machine-learning model).

Maybe even with everything planned it still fails, but as the experiments haven't even started it'll be interesting to see what, if anything takes.

I'm not sure DMCA would even apply; it's debatable whether our logo alone would be copyright protected. Aside from that, the issues are trademark and fraud, not copyright. (They haven't copied our content or the design of our site, just our name.)

Google might be able to help by adding the site to their phishing blacklist, but having them de-listed from the Google index wouldn't make any real difference. They don't rank anywhere visible now. What they do is list vehicles on other platforms like craigslist, and then direct people to their pages when they're contacted. That way they're not asking people to send money to some random stranger on craigslist, they're having them make a transaction through "Auto Tempest", a known car listings site.
This is only true for UNIX based OSes, given that libc is naturally the door into the OS, and contains much more than what ISO C compliant libc is supposed to have.
Good. They're a scummy company offering a scummy service to a society of self-absorbed users eager to buy the b.s. others are selling or vice versa. Commoditizing people like Silicon Valley companies have done is criminal nearly everywhere but the USA.

As with everything, automating this at scale is very difficult because you'll need residential IP addresses. So unless you have access to a massive bot net, good luck.
Some useful data that might be subpoenad from a Netflix account:

* subscriber IP address (for an idea of target whereabouts)

* subscriber playback equipment (for confirming target)

* times of account usage (for determining daily routine or pattern analysis, or just confirming that they're home or sth)

* identity info on account or subaccounts (for identifying target or possible friends/family members)

* favorite shows (for chumming up to target to get them to talk/start conversation with)
How easy a license is to read and apply is not relevant to whether it's an open source license or not (and personally, as a non-lawyer, I've also found the GPL to be very easy to read).

"Open software" is not a term of art in the free software community (only "free software" and "open source" are), which makes its similarity to "open source" seem quite suspect. And maybe you didn't come up with it, but that doesn't mean it's not a misleading term.
Electron is not exactly an epitome of a resource efficient framework either. If I was to compare efficiency, I’d choose a native baseline, such as the X window system or WinAPI. Granted, these APIs are low level and not as rich in features. Typically, the user calls some sort of “mark as dirty” function to mark a region of the window to be updated on the next refresh cycle, thus not wasting resources on portions of the screen that were not touched.
That’s a pretty laughable statement unless you’re in Europe and get the lower trims we don’t. Pretty much all car reviews put the A4 in the luxury sedan segment[1]. Not the segment with the Accord or Camry.

Following your logic the model 3 isn’t a luxury car either.

I don’t think you’ve worked at a struggling studio before, but yes that’s just how it is, right up to the CEO. Once someone figures out a better way they’d do it in a heartbeat. Executives are no different than anyone else and they shoulder the responsibility of making sure everyone has a job too, it’s one sided to think they’re only interested in profit especially in Epic’s case. You may think the museum analogy is odd, but it’s not just another studio for many people.
That's a fair comment, and you are definitely right about the difficulty of finding time to write a blog post!

Please understand that I was not intending to be hard on the author or criticize them. I am offering some writing advice that I hope could be useful for anyone writing technical articles like this. Of course that may just be arrogance on my part. ;-)
Second largest by area, maybe.
Three can be addressed by requiring security audits. Historically the Big 4 have done them for SOX compliance or other reasons, but its becoming much more routine for internal purposes. There is no reason it couldn't expand to external users (insurance companies). Many accounting firms are already doing them for hospital boards, etc.

Just like financial audits (or lack thereof) determine your loan rates in a SMB business, a security audit will do likewise.
Maybe I am misusing the definitions of individual versus collective.

I’m not saying arbitrary United States citizens should be criminally punished for indirectly benefiting from the geopolitical arrangement they were born into. Besides the average resident has very little control over these matters, despite nominally living in a democracy.

On the other hand, from an ethical perspective we can’t turn a blind eye to injustice. For example I do feel personally uneasy about the fact that I’m writing this comment on a phone containing coltan and gold that drives the demand for these minerals and funds corruption and conflict in Africa.
The problem with the term "whataboutism" is that its users wield it to prevent discussion about anything that doesn't fit their agenda. In particular, its main use has been to amplify the Russiagate conspiracy which was never backed by any evidence and yet was the forefront of public attention for almost three years. If you pointed out actual evidence-based foreign influence such as that put forward by the Saudis, you were accused of "whataboutism". This was almost certainly a tactic dreamed up in a politically motivated D.C. think tank or PR firm, and has prevented fruitful discussion of countless real issues for an extended period of time.
Why are you assuming that HN is the intended audience? Just because some random person posted the article here does not mean you are the intended audience of the author. It seems quite presumptious to criticise on that basis.

Sounds a bit like a rockfall to me, perhaps nearby? The slow buildup and slower subsidence of the sound intuitively fits what I would expect for a rockfall, and also we know there are rockfalls on the surface of Mars. It would be neat if that could be corroborated with surface evidence of a rockfall (I think a few have even been captured by satellite!)

Impulsive quakes on Earth have a characteristic waveform which this does not match: The arrival of a compression wave, followed by a larger shear wave. That waveform wouldn't be much different on another planet, since the shape of the waveform arises from the mechanical properties of rock. If it were not a rockfall, it would have to correspond more to a seismic tremor, which happens more slowly-- I know less about those and I am curious how this matches up.

Having multiple stations would really help to narrow down what the source of sounds like this could be.
That was the explanation Elon gave via twitter:
"Pana cell lines at Giga are only at ~24GWh/yr & have been a constraint on Model 3 output since July [...] Tesla won’t spend money on more capacity until existing lines get closer to 35GWh theoretical."
https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1117144865299501056

Not sure I understand the difference in costs between 2 lines at full capacity vs 3 lines at 66% capacity. Obviously 3 lines is an extra 50% on hardware cost, but what's the cost of time to refine and make mistakes (not to mention the lost revenue on producing more cars) on the last 33% capacity? Apparently Elon would rather get closer to 100%.
Because his position is not one in which free speech is the aim. It is a means to an end, and that end is teaching. The specifics of what he said, and in which context he said it, allow discussion about the quality of his teaching - which is relevant to whether or not his contract should have been renewed.
Wow this is really sleazy.

This seems like something that Amazon could solve by having humans in the loop, but they probably have too much inventory.
That’s a statement that’s easy to make from a privileged position. Luxury is in the eyes of the beholder, and that car costs two thirds of the median income (before tax, healthcare, housing, food) in the USA.

VW Group’s recent Audi e-tron has to 30-40% lower range than a Tesla 3 (~200 miles vs ~325 miles) and as such I would totally see them putting forward the money to buy Tesla in order to bridge this big technological gap.

One of the question I'd was why so many unicorns are suddenly taking plunge in to IPO in such a short window. A frequent theory I'd heard was that there is huge expectation of market downturn that can possibly last for years during which unicorns won't have enough cash to survive. This article presents reason that many VC funds were born in 2010 and their fund terms are ending now which is causing this rush.
It's possible. It's not impossible that if they'd just kept the hardware escape key and replaced the function keys with the Touch Bar it would have gotten a warmer reception; I think Apple really underestimated (a) how much of the MBP's loudest and most influential audience is comprised of developers or developer-adjacent techies, and (b) how many of those folks are really attached to their escape key. Personally I would be a lot happier with that -- in practice, I don't really miss the function keys and media keys, and I've actually used some of the Touch Bar functionality once in a while, but not having the escape key makes me angry and I'm not even a dedicated Vim user.
> Often these errors stem from systematic biases in our society

No, this does also not match.

One of the easiest way to get a ML model that creates systematic errors is spam filters. If I take my spam folder with no consideration, what the filter will learn is that any language which isn't my own are spam, and that servers located outside my nation are spammers. This resembles prejudice.

The cause of this systematic error is that individual email addresses do not get ham emails uniformly from every nation and every language. Proximity warps the data. I would need to normalize the data based on language and nation if I wanted to remove those errors in the filter. Looking at it from a political perspective does not make the filter perform better, and fixing it from that side has a high risk of causing even more errors in the model.
The policies in question are not paying were due to NotPetya. The Ukraine and Russia were in an open shooting war, and Russia loaded infected the Ukrainian tax commission's computer. When companies logged in to the Ukrainian computer, they became infected.

Was collateral damage done by this virus to say Maersk (who got the virus from their Ukraine subsidiary) or others an act of war?

10 Amazing Articles On Python Programming And Machine Learning
I'd wager that if the modern globalized economy were destroyed, people everywhere would become healthier, going from single-crop intensive farming, garment working and assembly lines back to localized farming and manufacturing. The populations would dwindle, of course, but the survivors would be healthier and happier.
Also worth noting that a financial instrument like an index fund is not something easy to understand for a very large, rural, not highly educated population. It's a fact that there are large Indian states where the literacy rate is between 60-70% vs 98%+ in countries where intangible investment products are popular.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Indian_states_and_unio...

Gold is something you can see and hold. In countries with 10%+ inflation rates, an investment that returns 4-8% is also different than, for example, a mutual fund in the US that returns 6-8% which is significantly over the US/Canadian inflation rate.
I’m assuming by subpoena you mean a warrant. Not sure the feds would try and compel some terrorist to be a witness or give some evidence of something.

That makes sense. I remember being frustrated though because Gimp was usually the only imaging app that came installed in a desktop Linux system. And I never found a good Paint-like app that wasn’t super buggy.

> As a programmer in 2019, I think it's a bit hypocritical of me to opt-in to the industry that is responsible for the situation we are in while saying 'regulation is the solution here'.

Unless you are responsible for the current situation then you aren't being hypocritical. I'm a programmer and only develop free software. I don't at all feel hypocritical to day that tech companies should be far more strictly regulated when it comes to user privacy and (god forbid!) ethics.
I've taken part in some WPF application development and I think there are some benefits in immediate-mode rendering of the UI. Particularly when the UI changes faster than a monitor refresh rate or there's too much data complexity and you want the data update and redraw processes to be independent.

For my first example, updating controls and overall layout in a WPF application feels much more lightweight than in WinForms because the renderer just shows the result at the next monitor refresh instead of trying to update the layout in realtime or using hacks that disable redraw until you do everything.

For the second example, I've used SciChart to display trading data and it again was much more responsive because it replaced a control-based rendering pipeline with just an immediate-mode canvas tgat would render the selected data window once per monitor refresh rate.

And I think overall once you hit the performance barrier where you can't just fill a panel with controls and let them render and instead have to make a custom draw routine, the immediate-mode rendering adds this extra smoothness to the UI and gives you a bit more performance headroom.
Is this is a symptom of a very developed society in which abundance of wealth creates the possibility where certain individuals will always find a way to feel victimized?

Well Panasonic is claiming Tesla is not buying enough batteries and they are taking profit warnings as a result.

Tesla is claiming that they are battery supply limited and would ship more powerwalls and cars if they had more.

Not clear that Tesla's car production doesn't have other bottlenecks, but it does seem weird that Tesla doesn't sell more powerwalls, if the supply was there.

Seems most likely some political maneuvering to try to get Tesla to commit to Panasonic batteries at other locations. Or just incompetence on one or both sides.
