"In this release C++17 support is no longer marked experimental. The
C++ front-end implements the full C++17 language (already previous GCC
major version implemented that) and the C++ standard library support is
almost complete. The C++ front-end and library also have numerous further
C++2a draft features [1]. GCC has a new front-end for the D language.
GCC 9.1 has newly partial OpenMP 5.0 support and almost
complete OpenACC 2.5 support."

Awesome stuff, happy to see healthy competition between GCC and Clang these days

Especially since the Federal level of government has increased in both power and attention over last century where winner takes all. If States regained the political and power emphasis, more politics would be local and generally conducted among people with more similar views....and if you dont like it, chances are that another State caters to your viewpoint.
Using pictures of starving children as props to collect our personal information is a new low for them. I can't believe this made it through any sort of approval process.
Feel free to disagree but generically around HN other users expect more than "ha ha sure".
> I'm sorry to break it for you, but it doesn't actually work.

Happy to disagree here. Personally it has been working amazingly since over the past, what, 30 years open-source has been the foundation of almost any tool or tech we use nowadays and it was done without economical incentives. Not sure where your data comes from.

I agree about the burnout, but not sure adding money to the equation helps with this problem.
Yes the usual situation we're familiar with is picking a candidate in an election (which is what millions of Brits were doing yesterday) but it's the same for all these decisions. The key ingredients are more than two options (if there are only exactly two options we can solve this nicely and if there's only one option it's trivial) and wanting to incorporate preferences from many different people (ie let's not have a dictator or use sortition)

Neutral arbiters (your "lay member body") are very expensive because they can be captured so you need to defend against that, and even when they aren't captured you'll have to put up with accusations that they /were/ by sore losers who didn't get what they wanted from the neutral arbiter. For a sovereign government you can't impose the neutral arbiter on them, so they'll have to agree to suffer it, and such agreement is necessarily conditional. You can do it (that's how the Speaker of the House of Commons in the UK works) but it's fragile and I wouldn't advise it.

>'The Guardian has proven to be one of the few sources of reliable, in-depth reporting on the Brexit shambles.'

In many ways, The Guardian is a remarkable paper. It does not publish falsehoods, or - for the most part - appeal to the worst in people. It is committed to the defence of civil liberties, and to ensuring that journalism is open to everyone, regardless of their income.

But it's coverage of Brexit is highly partisan. It is not unreliable in the sense of being inaccurate; it is simply one side of the conversation.
Collusion is a secret cooperation or deceitful agreement in order to deceive others. The plan you suggest is not deceiving anybody. It represents an political agreement and cooperation.

Alice and Bob are making a good deal. Well working democracy should involve maximum amount of deliberation and deal making. It's a good thing. If you want more of that kind of deal making votes should be visible though (quadratic voting between representatives in parliament might work the way you suggest).

So a common way to handle synchronous signals is via a mechanism much like signalfd, where your signal handler just appends to a pipe that can be read at a convenient time.
It literally requires that. It’s what the “civil” part of the term means. Otherwise it’s just disobedience. Go read Letter From An Alabama Jail.
I agree that it's way less annoying that the wikipedia pop-up during the annual period where they ask for donations. (I can't tell for NPR since I go to their European version)
Yeah, NPR found plenty on their part of the national media's "how the hell did this happen?" tour right after the election. Lots of "well yeah he's awful and I wasn't happy to vote for him. But... court nominations and Roe v. Wade, so I kinda had to."
The Guardian is one of the most toxic news sites around. A lot of their pieces are complete fluff filled with snarky opinions. It's pretty damning when you read a "news" article and it sounds like a little kid rambling on.
You mean Mr Banks the one with the shady connections to Putin ?
I think you're pointing out a different shade of the same problem. People _do_ technically have representation in the form of their Congresspeople and Senators. But those elected officials have to polarize their viewpoints and thus their votes because when they vote out of party, the vocal members of their parties excoriate them as traitors. So the people in the middle feel like their representatives aren't representing them.
Pillows, throw blankets, candles, incense, stuffed animals, ornaments, coffee mugs. Indigo is essentially now a chain selling “the reading experience”—everything you need on/near a couch (or bed, or bathtub, or dining table) to have a comfortable day sitting around reading a book. Including the book itself, of course. These (both the accessories and the books themselves) are marketed as “gifts for people who read.”

They also sell some card/board games (and even, oddly, a rather large collection of tarot card decks), stationery (notebooks, journals, calendars), some greeting cards (but not a whole aisle of them), and a few other things that aren’t quite accessories to books, but make more sense from another interpretation of their paradigm: “expensive, medium-to-high-quality paper products that nobody would be likely to buy for themselves, and which therefore make good gifts when you want to make it clear that you didn’t just buy them something from the dollar store and/or Walmart.” In other words: bougie paper products.

Oh, and—separately again—their childrens’ section, as well as containing books, contains toys, but only those that could (perhaps loosely) be referred to as “learning toys.” Indigo wants to supplant traditional toy stores as the destination for adults trying to shop for a gift for a child, with a different approach—rather than stocking the toys the kids want, they stock the toys that adults think would most benefit kids to play with. If you recall the kids’ section of early ThinkGeek—before they became a HotTopic-alike “cultural branding” store—it has that same kind of feel: gifts you could get your niece/nephew, that would both make the kid excited, but also make their parents appreciate the purchase (rather than resenting it for how much it’s distracting the kid from their studies or, potentially, damaging their house.)
Agreed, this is an absolutely terrible idea. If you want to say whatever you want and be free from censorship, host your content on your own site.

Sadly down to earth news sources seem to be few and far between...
Yeah I've subscribed to a few places, but it would be nice to have an easier system for subscribing and just add a bunch of news orgs to it.
That makes sense. But do you see why it might be conflicting to some people if they have the chance to do, say, 40 units of good for 8 pleasure instead of 10 for 10? Where do you draw the line?
I suggest you actually buy a good quality newspaper and read it, rather that reading their web site. You may be pleasantly surprised.

its funny how all these big platforms are always trying to hush people who are trying to alert others about the truth even as crazy as it may sound. Some of the stuff alex j says is true but its so crazy and hard to believe that people see it as fake news. who ever wrote this article has biased intentions instead of just reporting the news without taking sides.

I suspect you're being downvoted not because of your idea, but because of how you're presenting it. Comments that contain "lol" and a sarcastic remark or rhetorical question are considered immature and aren't well accepted here.
Oh yes. I've a book on dynamic programming (Applied Dynamic Programming, Bellman + Dreyfus, seriously over my head unfortunately) which uses missionaries, cannibals and a boat to cross a river (page 97). The authors talk about M cannibals and N missionaries. Note again: he used the letter M for cannibals, not the missionaries, which I note start with that letter. And he could have called the cannibals C but, no.

I literally can't understand what mental process led them to do this, or not realise.

Another thing I detest is mathematician's fear of brackets. They'd rather use a tower of unstated precedences than just bracketing the fuckers. Fine, I suppose, if you know the subject but I was trying to learn something recently, something with quantifiers and implications nested densely, and was left mentally bracketing the various subexpressions to (try to!) work out what was meant. If I have to fight the syntax I'm already being blocked from understanding the semantics.

Mathematicians really do make things hard sometimes.

Thankfully us programmers are so much better (sarc)

>The NYT employs enough disingenuous obfuscators

Examples?
To be clear I'm not targeting you with the following comment.

> highly partisan

I don't know what anyone means by that anymore. I'll see people cite such things but and then they'll state "look at the front page now" and list articles. As if the front page has to have two or more opposite articles for every topic, or a paper must provide a ying to every yang (and possibly proportionately) like we can't handle it if we don't see our POV explicitly cited anymore...

This is really more of a side rant, for all I know I would entirely agree with your statement if I read the guardian more.
Thank you. We have plans to connect an 802.11 card/module (probably M.2 via PCIe) to the FPGA and manage it from the ARM processor. This can be done as a daughter card. We're looking for the right 802.11 module that is a good choice for an embedded system like this (not Windows / *nix).
At least you’re open about your naked extremism. Horseshoe theory in action, except of course your cause is righteous and just, unlike Those People on the Other Side.
That's very much a time with a timezone (the timezone being the place where the event happens).

However it's not a postgres "timestamp with timezone", which (as both TFA and fphilipe's article note) doesn't store a timezone.

The problem of "future event in a local place" is why the "store everything as UTC" trend is wrong, incidentally: if the timezone's offset changes (which happens regularly, sometimes with very little warning) the stored time is now completely off, by minutes to days[0] depending on the change. "Store everything as UTC" is only suitable if you're only ever storing past events (timezones don't normally get retroactively altered).

I don't think this would work in real life. When Bill Gates was proposing something similar, one of the engineers on the anti-spam team built an FPGA that would allow a spammer to solve such puzzles quickly enough to prevent spamming. His observation to me was that even though such a technique would work, botnets had eliminated the need for specialized hardware.
Is the voting in their legislature anonymous? Why?

Unlike ordinary people, the legislators are working for their voters, who deserve to know if they got what they paid for. If I send Bob to the legislature, understanding that he plans to get rid of all the bloody clowns, I certainly want to know if he supported the Bill that gives every Clown $5000 of the city's tax revenue to buy more ludicrous shoes and lapel flowers. If Bob can promise he's anti-clown, then arrive in the legislature and vote a straight pro-clown slate knowing he'll face no consequences, that's no way to run a representative democracy!
How do you know that? Unknown unknowns.
I always hate the framing as “polarized”. There’s tons of things Democrats and Republicans agree on.

Military spending goes up every year. Save for Dodd-Frank, deregulation has been common across presidencies for 30 years along with corporate tax cuts...

The establishment gets things done, they really do, it’s just not things that help everyday people. I’m not sure how this would help that.

I read the example of Blender as an example of one of many open source solutions.
Polarization isn't in itself a problem unless you believe the truth is somewhere near the center, which is itself an ideological position. On top of that, our choices have always been the options from C to E. Sanders is the farthest left serious candidate for president we've had in decades, and he's not very far left relative to many center-left European parties. Trump has farther right tendencies but policy-wise he's more or less in lock step with the center of the GOP. I would love to hear an explanation for why I'm wrong. We've rarely had a president or even candidates on either extreme.
Yes there's more noise - but there's more signal, too.
The more that politics become local the more this all goes away. States need to be at the foreront again
Newspapers are inherently partisan; that's fine, as long as the reader knows what they stand for.

You can have a political signature, yet perform fairly objective journalism.
Regarding bias: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/wired-magazine/

A bit of a stretch to claim that saying Alex Jones spreads misinformation and inflames tensions is "100% mischaracterization of these people". I'd say that description is fairly spot on.

I don't know what the group you linked has to do with Alex Jones or the others mentioned in this article. Could you elaborate why that group is relevant to the article? Other than highlighting the difficulties of content moderation at the scale of 2B users?
Read the entire article: not a single confirmed fact related to the meetings, everything is proposed by sources. And that embassy had plenty of photographers and journalists around it, yet there isn't a single photo of Paul Manafort at the embassy. You'd think they could run with one of the many photos that would have been taken and offered to them for money.

Is the "misunderstanding" here that The Guardian or other UK papers can print claims from "sources" without verifying a single piece of materially important information?

You seem to be here to defend The Guardian in this long thread about what a great paper it is, but your defense is to make a comparison to The Sun and target it at people who are pointing out that The Guardian has printed obvious lies (actual "fake news") in meddling with US politics. That's a really interesting way to defend them. One would think such defense in a thread like this might be inspired by their honesty and integrity as a news organization, but it's actually that it's okay to lie by claiming sources said something because The Sun did it.
Thanks for this, I've been obsessing about track layouts while playing trains with my kid, how to avoid getting stuck in permanent loops, having bi-drectional routes on all parts of the track etc. As I'm not a math person, I've not had a logical framework with which to think about it. my kid doesn't care but laying out tracks been a surprisingly fun mind game for me.
its not a two party problem, its a problem of intelligence, literally the american congress (and most of the uneleceted public servants) are literally ignoramuses who are incapable of thinking about more than 2 options.
