You only got downvoted because most HN people hate guns, too. Never mind that free people owning guns is the only thing standing in the way of total "boot on the face" tyranny like China has. It's the one little last check against oppression that every Venezuelan wishes they had right now.

> What relationship have continuations to making Java exceptions resumeable?

We don't want resumable exceptions for Java. But if you want to implement a Lisp that has them on the JVM, you'll be able to use continuations for that.

> but you have never used one of the Lisp runtimes like Allegro CL and you simply don't know what they provide and when it comes to specific capabilities, they are not important to YOU, because JVM users don't use them - given that they have no choice.

I have never used Allegro, and, as I said, some capabilities that are important to some people may be missing on the JVM. But it seems that most Lispers prefer what the JVM has to offer, which is high performance, low-latency GC, low-overhead monitoring, and a huge ecosystem.

> not because it is technically or capability-wise a good platform for their niche language.

True, but most people don't care about what's good for their language, they care about what's good for their program (and users). It seems like more people prefer Lisp on the JVM, even if they have to give up some features (and they'll need to give up fewer features with Loom).

> Not Smalltalk, not Lisp, not Scheme, not Python, not Ruby, ...

Python and Ruby are actually most performant on the JVM nowadays. Look up TruffleRuby and GraalPython. They're just very new. Even TruffleJS is almost as good as V8.

I have seen people panic due to in-flight turbulence. It would not be fun to see seat mates experience an attack of claustrophobia.

Add in a tiny crisis or delays and the close space could cause unexpected mob behaviors.

Also, how would you pick up something if you dropped it; or eat?

The free-air to passenger ratio would diminish making body odors could get much more intense. Unexpected delays anyone?

It's been tried. Doesn't seem to work. Too many people pick flights on the basis of cost. British Air does have business class only between JFK and London City airport but that's obviously not a very representative pair of cities and is, I assume, standard business class pricing (i.e. multiples of coach).
That's true. The odds are those of being born rich.
I've always thought that, I also used to operate my own email server and I've encountered the same problem with other email providers, always the big ones, yahoo (there was a time when yahoo was big in email, at least here), microsoft and now yes, google. What is even worse is that sometimes google just drops the email messages, replies with 250 ok, but the email never gets delivered to inbox or even spam. Definetly the big 4 or 5 or whatever are taking over on all aspects of our life. Actually if I think better about it, they have already done so, there was an article here on hn about blocking google, amazon and ms network blocks, nothing really works as expected without them.

The evil part about this is that it needs no one at any step to say it out loud. It just “happens” as a result of Google being big.

I run a mail monitoring service [0], and we hear this complaint every now and then.

A couple of things that regularly seems to trigger false positives in spam algorithms:

- no or misconfigured SPF and/or DKIM

- no or misconfigured reverse-DNS

- automatically included footer texts (confidentiality, copyright, safe a tree don't print, etc)

- regular automatic replies from the domain (such as out of office notifications)

- the use of embedded images (logos, human signatures, etc)

We sometimes joke that these triggers were built in by the algorithm developers as a means of punishing those who litter their email with pointless texts and images.

It seems like it comes down to intent. If Samsung has released a prototype device (could be the exact same device but labeled as prototype), then people are likely to be more forgiving. There is a certain level of expectation that a prototype has known shortcomings or incomplete consumer-level testing.

Of course, this means that competitors probably have hands-on with your device as well.

(Shameless plug) we are developing a “study as a service” project to drive home the individuality and impact of sleep.

The plan is to take a week with someone - comparing various “in bed” times along with quality of sleep to a simple, dynamic cognitive task.

This is a naive comment. The airline industry is hardly competitive. You do realize the issue is the limits on gates. Please visit Canada and our shitty airline and telecom monopoly/oligopoly to understand how airlines can lower service, make money and pass almost nothing back to customers.
Similar experience. The good people I worked with at Accenture where only there as the company they worked for got acquired by Accenture, those same people didn’t stay long working under Accenture before moving on elsewhere.

Generally on projects I’ve been on with Accenture involved they use their size to push through what they want and how they want to do things regardless of everyone else. One thing they do well is talking to the stakeholders, it’s all sales at the end of the day.
When a family member had a phone stolen not long ago, the only major functionality on it that they couldn't quickly and securely disable was the Google stuff.

The procedures for doing so seemed to be unnecessarily complicated and difficult to find when starting, ironically, from a Google search on another device.

Worse, the security policies seemed to be fundamentally flawed, because they kept insisting on some form of authentication based on a trusted device when the purpose of the transaction was to notify them that the trusted device had been stolen.

There has been an unhealthy trend recently of assuming that everyone has a mobile phone and that communications to that phone/number are a good method of authentication, without adequate thought to what happens if the physical device and/or the associated phone number are compromised, or to whether protocols like SMS are really suitable for this sort of application. And some of the really important things, like banks and government services and email providers (which are in practice a gateway to everything else you do online) are often among the worst offenders. I don't know what to do about this, but certainly raising awareness of this kind of problem would be a good start.

Thank you, I'll wear the title of: leading critic of nesting proudly! disclaimer I'm not a hugely experienced programmer, but have done a few open source projects in Vue, React and am currently working on a series of Angular applications with a team at work.

In Vue and Angular component styles are automatically encapsulated at the component level by scoping (I think) so nesting isn't really necessary to target specific components. Angular also recently deprecated a method of breaking out of component styling and soon it will be completely removed from the framework.

Although I'm a critic I'm not totally against nesting, I just feel that SASS encourages it, so without discipline things can get very complex and fragile. One level of nesting is OK with me though I suppose...

Airlines are having near-record profits now. I have a hard time believing there isn't some implicit or explicit collusion going on with US carriers. Not only are seats ever-more cramped and the fees ever greater, but pilot benefits have been massively slashed at many airlines as well. The series of mergers we have had have made things worse, I think.
In Europe probably not. In the US it falls under first as fair use.
I too self-host and have done for decades. When I had a problem that may perhaps have been like this, Google disabled the relevant part of them spam filter and made an issue in some internal tracker. I write "Perhaps" because my report was a lot more specific.

Google sells mail+spam filtering+more as a product, with a seven-digit number of paying customers, each of which pay per month and user. What more incentive could they have?
By "on their own terms" I meant prison. Like if you do something bad enough to lose your pension it's because you did something so bad that you're going to jail for the rest of your life.
But in order for that to work, every single airline would have to do that together, holding hands. Because there are multiple airlines, a single airline could choose not to install them and keep their current prices for seats and outcompete those who do install these. I mean, that's basic economics of competition.
Or providing a valuable service of allowing more people to fly for less money at the expense of comfort.

The reclining seats also allow you to be shaken awake every 15 minutes as someone uses the headrests as handholds while walking up the aisle in the dark.

>I wonder. Google as a company is famously focused on machine learning through automated analytics and bare minimum of human contact

It should be noted that ultimately these efforts to "learn" result in ML, AI whatever pointed AT you, not working for you.
Calling a lot of these contractors "consultants" is rather misleading. WSP--the biggest contractor--is the "rail delivery partner." They're responsible for overseeing everyone else, dealing with environmental review, dealing with engineering contingencies, etc. $700 million sounds like a lot for a "consultant" but seems pretty reasonable for what is basically the general contractor on a $50-100 billion engineering and construction project.
There's a form of meditation where you try and just be aware of awareness itself, and it can do similarly weird things.
> Newson actually cut off the ends so now that it's going to be only in the Central Valley.

No, he didn't. Newsome announced that construction would proceed on the part that was already an announced as the initial construction segment with federal construction funds committed and that only design and environmental work would proceed on the rest while additional federal and/or private funding was secured for construction.

Which was pretty much a big nothing announcement, since that was pretty much already how things were working (sure, it was theoretically possible for the state to fund construction on other segments without outside funds, but it hadn't planned on doing so), but was quickly seized on by enemies of the project (including the Trump Administration) as being something other than it was.

Which is all not to excuse Newsome; at best, his handling of the matter was grossly incompetent.
WRT reclining, I disagree. The seats need to be upright enough so that emergency egress is easy, but that runs contrary to what is comfortable for many people. I don't need much recline, but allowing the seat to move back an inch or two (as measured at the top) makes a huge difference in posture.

Well, that doesn't sound too good.
From what I've seen, so many people really wanted a car and many who got one over the last 15 years never looked back at public transit. The economics are sort of balancing out though with tiered license plates. It's over USD $10,000 for a plate that lets you enter the city center, versus virtually free for a suburban plate.
Good news. You are also a capitalist. Don't buy the ticket.

I think If you start adding more code, the growth of the release binary will diminish. The todomvc code is only 207KB when compiled and has relatively more code than the minimal example.

Apparently, they averaged about 300 interviews per company, then stack ranked on net favorability.

I'm not a social scientist, but that seems.. low? And while I'm sure the initial call list was demographically weighted, apparently they'd ask each respondent to talk about two companies they were more familiar with from the list of 100. That doesn't sound like the ~300 people rating each company had any proper demographic weighting at all.

I still don't get it. Even if I go to prison I don't lose my private sector pension. Government pensions are worse because they have the option of removing them. They can't do that in private sector because it's not part of any contract or company control - it's a trust.
>And assuming they don’t just move in lock-step with their other competitors and make these new seats the default

Well then they wouldn't be competitors, would they? That's another problem.

Any single airline could disrupt the system by choosing not to install these and to keep their prices the same. Or choosing to install these and lower their prices. Which are two good things for consumers.

Like I replied above, that's basic economics of competition.
> Do you plan a less nerdy user interface?

Yes! I agree with you, having Offst on a mobile phone is indeed a game changer. Offst was designed from the beginning to work in environments where sudden malfunctions and network problems can occur. Having it on a mobile phone is part of the plan.

I began with a command line interface (stctrl, the first Offst application) because I knew I could finish developing it very quickly.

I hope to take a period of time to stabilize the protocol and all the APIs, and then I will begin writing a GUI interface for Offst.

Offst is written in Rust, I have no idea yet how to get it inside a mobile phone. I don't have any mobile experience at all, it will take some research on my side.

> it would drain the battery

Maybe not so much? Offst doesn't do any kind of CPU intensive operation. Maybe the communication will drain some battery though.
I agree. I self-host a lot of services I use, but I'll happily let someone else deal with my emails passing through to Gmail for a few bucks a month.

I thought a cartesian (cross) product produced an ordered output (tuple), an element from each set?

I don't have any experience with data science, but my brain wants to apply linear algebra and set theory...

So, in the above linked example, to clean we would first do an intersect operation on user names to remove people who don't appear in each set.

Then, to put the tables together (to append emails to appropriate names) we do a cross product between the filtered sets (assuming the sets have been ordered).

Is my intuition correct? I also have zero experience with DBs.

Some of us barely fit into a jet cabin at all now! Anything over maybe 5'10" and you have to duck. I'm 6'4". Imagine standing for an hour with your neck torqued because the headroom is too little.

In addition the new Delta legroom of 23" (including the depth of the seat!) will make it impossible for me to sit down. My knee is 25" from the seat (I just measured it). With existing 29" 'seat pitch' cabins, I have to splay my legs or sit sideways.

I guess it'll be the train for me.
I'm sure there's going to be some sort of language at ticket purchase that you will be liable for any problems because you chose to stand the whole time. Or, if the flight maybe they offer you the option to purchase an upgrade to one of the unbooked chairs.
Ohhh right yeah I meant cochlear ones. Sorry about that :)
Isn't it weird to lie about how long you sit on your butt? I could understand lying about output of your work. But hours? The perception is that it doesn't matter what you did, but rather, how much you suffered for it.

"Our revenue was $105.2 million, $220.5 million, and $400.6 million in fiscal years 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively, representing annual growth of 110% and 82%, respectively.

Our growth is global with international revenue representing 34%, 34%, and 36% of total revenue in fiscal years 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively.

We continue to invest in growing our business to capitalize on our market opportunity. As a result, we incurred net losses of $146.9 million, $140.1 million, and $138.9 million in fiscal years 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively.

Our net losses have been decreasing as a percentage of revenue over time as revenue growth has outpaced the growth in operating expenses."

Nice work!

While’s gmail’s filtering is obviously neither your responsibility nor under your control, you also can’t really fault people for using one of the most popular email services on the planet.

When we are talking about nesting we are not talking about generating `.page #left-section .box .button {}`... This would be bad. Nesting used properly is something like `.myWidget .button, .myWidget .title, .myWidget .main-section {}`. You can then move .myWidget anywhere you want and the styles would follow.
