Does Boeing use agile when deciding things like safety features on planes?

if not, is this relevant to the story?
English has evolved more in England than in New England the past few hundred years. From what I've heard New England accents are closer to what English accents used to be than modern English accents are. Perhaps lox fell out of use in England but not here.

“speculative”? You’re alleging that the hour-long recording that is the basis for this article is misleading or a fabrication?
And plausible deniability is the #1 rule when being malicious. If you know enough to use an asymmetric key instead of a password, but not enough to think it's a good idea to leave the private key there, you're in a weird cross-section of expertise.

When you charge far less than the actual cost of service you're going to get demand that does not reflect the actual market, hence not true "true" supply and demand. If I was selling dollar bills for 50 cents I would sell a lot of dollars bills. We've seen this before it's called Groupon. A key difference between Uber and Groupon is there are more drivers to con then there are businesses. Uber is losing billions dollars subsidizing rides, that is not a legitimate market. This is a farce to sell a growth story to raise capital and allow early investors to make huge gains, again see Groupon.

Uber was saying drivers could make 90k a year back in 2014

This would be great for tech startups. Especially globally. They'll be able to out-compete the big unionized tech companies so much easier!
Per https://legal.uncc.edu/legal-topics/contracts/contract-check...

"If the worker is not integrated into the institution's operations and the right of control is not obviously apparent (no training, no work hours, no reports), you are reasonably safe as long as the relationship is short-term and the independent contractor has other customers."

I would say "integrated into the institution's operations" is the very definition of Uber drivers. (What is Uber except for a network of drivers?) And as far as "right of control": here's an app that tells you exactly where to go, who to pick up, what route to follow, how much to collect. Many drivers are not "short-term" nor have other "customers."
I don't see in the article where it says the word hasn't changed, or anything about 8k years as claimed in the post title. It does say that "lox" happens to be composed of sounds that "haven't changed in English", which I take to mean that that English pronunciation in English hasn't changed during the time that the word has existed as part of the language. I don't believe the article claims that the pronunciation is unchanged across different languages.
You treat your lawn care person and maid as employees? I guess if they are full time. My lawn care is completely contractor based- they provide tools, they set schedule, they don’t have a uniform set by me. They are exactly contractors. Same with my maid.

If I for some reason had an estate that required employee Lawncare this would be different and I would hire someone.

There’s a definition from the IRS in the US for employee and contractor that’s not exactly black and white but has many tests for who is an employee vs contractor.
I think it's great that people are continuing to experiment with cypherpunkish technology platforms and with ways of combining different technologies, but "uncensorable" is a pretty strong claim. "No single point of failure", another claim displayed on the web site, doesn't genuinely imply "uncensorable".
The existing demand was not "true" under the reasonable assumption that nobody wants to work for less than minimum wage after expenses.

"Want" is a complicated term in this context, but there are plenty of non-gig employees earning minimum wage or above, but less than minimum wage after subtracting expenses like commuting.
> I am forced to treat the people who cut my lawn and clean my house as employees, according to tax law, for funding unemployment insurance among other things.

It's the other way around: The people who cut your lawn force you to treat them as employees. What stops you from hiring a "proper" contractor?

> But Uber's labor force, without which literally the company wouldn't exist, are not eligible for the same benefits.

Yes, because they are contractors. They set their own hours and choose whether to show up or not. They don't have any of the duties that an employee has. Therefore, they don't have any of the rights either.

> The logical next step is that the company has no liability for anything that happens to you in one of their cars.

It's not their car. Uber is a middleman. That's what people don't understand. Their "added value" is to bring together service providers and service users. They don't provide insurance or anything.

The only places that call it lox are places that have considerable Jewish populations, even in the US. I never heard smoked salmon called lox until I lived next door to a Hillel house in college.
Could they potentially face jail time in Ethiopia or Indonesia (where the doomed flights flew from, and the airlines are based)? I'm sure there would be quite the fight over extradition, but it would certainly send the message that you can't escape your negligence because of an eye to corporate profit on a global scale.
As to point (2), I think this keybase/stellar integration is the solution to the problem that crypto has been looking for.

If I want to give a friend money, I can hand them cash, but I have to be in the same room as them. I can transfer that cash in other ways, but I need to trust the middlemen. I can also use a bank to send them money, but I have to know their details, which are sensitive information. I can use one of the plethora of money-transfer apps, but that involves putting my money under someone else’s direct control (someone who may go insolvent by the end of the year).

Or, if I have them on keybase (or any number of platforms, ideally) I can now just send it with a simple text message.

Additionally, what if I really appreciate something you said on HN, or twitter; or you made a really valuable contribution to one of my projects on GH? If you have your keybase proof on there, I can send you my appreciation in a matter of seconds. Imagine trying to do that using cash, PayPal, etc.

Despite the fact that until now, crypto has had far more overhead than cash and credit transactions, this and successor programs may have the potential to make transfers far more convenient.
These people are politicans. You can’t possibly expect them to keep up with every new technological advancement.
You just described literally anything new.
As a former Crowdstrike engineering employee, congratulations to everyone that helped get the company get to where it is today. Super proud of you and our work together.
GOG is surely quite curated, but for older games they usually don't have many objections. There is also itch.io where there is almost no curation at all.

As for preserving in other ways - I agree, you can't expect any specific store to be around in the future.

Internet Archive also work on preserving old games.
This is by good design. Laws and action made in haste are rarely positive.
What matters for climate change: CO2 emissions. What doesn't matter: solar panels on roofs.
I mean, yeah, the former ambassador who lost his job for having too much integrity to play the established game says "hey, the public record here isn't right, and I know because I was one of the players. Here's the timeline that lines up exactly with what happened and my previously published schedule", and the reaction is either not mentioning him at all, or saying the equivalent of "lol, idk, fuck that guy I guess", then yeah I'm going to give some respect to what he says.
That’s not quite true since there are many Americans with exactly average so there aren’t half below average.

Maybe you could argue that half is below median IQ if you use a bunch of significant digits after the decimal, but I don’t think there are any exams that attempt to measure with such precision.

I don’t see CEOs being lonely outside of niche situations. Most are going to have to have some strong desire to tell many people what to do. I’m sure they wind up building a “community” around themselves both inside and out of work.
It vastly disappoints me that Google is allowed to get away with this sort of thing without huge public outcry.
What you describe sounds like Scrum done very poorly, not "Agile" in general.

>This story is going to be an 8 point story? But Jim said he could get it done in 2

If you treat individual ticket SP values as measures of time, you've already completely lost the point of everything.
That's only violent crime. From your very link, for property crime, it's the 4th highest of all the US.

This goes along with what the parent was saying. Cops don't go after non-life threatening crimes.
It came to English via Yiddish and therefore via the Jewish people. I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot more Yiddish words in American English than British English considering the size of the Jewish populations in both countries, the timelines for their immigration, and the roles they have traditionally taken in society.
It doesn't. The impact of radiation is a rise in cancer rates which even if they substantially shorten lifetimes aren't X risk.
Fun fact: Niko Matsakis is working on a rewrite of Rust's typechecking/trait matching infrastructure in Chalk, which is a derivative of Prolog: https://github.com/rust-lang/chalk

Prolog is surprisingly (or not surprisingly, given the Curry-Howard isomorphism) useful for implementation of programming languages, especially typecheckers.
Perhaps this will help with the piles of human excrement.

Strictly speaking, their operations are not tax funded. Their operating budget comes from selling postage. There's a whole complicated discussion about their pension, which apparently gets some Federal funding, but day-to-day they are not tax funded.
1. Deregulate the health insurance market so you can sell across state lines.
2. Employers start giving their employees the money they pay on their behalf.
3. People shop for the health insurance they want/need.

In a year, every other advertisement on TV would be for health insurance, like it is with car insurance now.
Even then, having the city of New York set the price according to "utilization" isn't supply and demand either. It's price fixing.

Tocharian is not in the same family (Sino-Tibetan) as any of the Chinese topolects -- it's an Indo-European language spoken in Xinjiang.
Firefox on mobile has definitely improved a lot over the last couple years. It, plus uBlock Origin makes the web incredibly more tolerable.
Isn't moving the demand curve by burning capital still a matter of supply and demand?
Probably when you stop, for example while at a stop light. This is how Waze is doing it too.
I've lived here for 15 years and the situation has grown vastly worse in the last 2-3 years. To those of us who have lived in _this_ city for a long time, what we are seeing is a full blown crisis that needs to be priority number one, two, three and four - at least until we get things moving in the right direction.
But why is everyone blaming Boeing? They were working on the issue, and I wouldn't want to rush a software patch on plane either. The pilots clearly thought it was an issue, by why are they talking to Boeing? Shouldn't they be talking with the Carrier? I mean if anyone is to blame for loss of life surely it's the carriers?

> 1. Deregulate the health insurance market so you can sell across state lines.

Why can't health insurance companies sell across state lines right now?
I only remember this from an article a while ago, but weren't some of the ride sharing companies actively taking measures against drivers who drove for competitors? If that is still the case I think this should be one of the key features that disqualifies them from being classified as mere contractors.
Don’t forget empire building. Why be some loser with only six employees when you could run a division with forty five people?
You choose to have a car. Your body is a given.
Could this loneliness be a primary factor in the increased sensitivity and fragility of younger generations?

I also wonder if loneliness is a key factor in some people preferring lies and deceptions in exchange for kindness in their interpersonal relationships. I know this may sound strange expressed so directly, but I have seen numerous comments on HN claim exactly this preference very directly and clearly.
Does anyone know if the default cut/copy/paste key equivalents in Windows Terminal are ctrl-x/ctrl-c/ctrl-v like everything else in Windows, or is it still that weird system from CMD.EXE which is an abomination unto Nuggan?

I haven't been able to find this out. I even tweeted at someone on the Windows Terminal team and didn't get a response.

EDIT: I looked through the github repo and it does appear to support sane key equivalents. Nuggan be praised!
You sound pretty cynical on the issue. Maybe you should come advocate with us and see for yourself the opportunities we still have to create meaningful change in this space.
Oxford Dictionary of English cites it as North American, via immigrants' Yiddish.
> And in German, the vowel was always "a" not "o"

The letter changed, but the pronunciation didn't - hence "not changed in sound". German "a" == English (short) "o".
Not a lot in the article:

“The pronunciation in the Proto-Indo-European was probably ‘lox,’ and that’s exactly how it is pronounced in modern English,” he says.

"was probably" sounds like a very, very thin claim.
Waze started doing this and it’s annoying, but I’m already looking at waze so it’s typically when I’m stopped or during some other period where I think it’s safe to look at my phone while driving.

I feel sorry for the advertisers as it’s dumb stuff like showing me an ad for “there’s a kfc nearby would you like to eat here” when I’m driving to a business meeting at 10am.
If you get this down to around $5k I bet you'd have a much larger market of apartment dwellers such as myself. Any hope of getting there in the next few years?
If you're worried about how SF is allocating resources, then a pre-emptive ban on this stuff is an extremely efficient way to regulate in this area (compared to doing studies once it's built, or creating an oversight panel etc.).
My lunch is usually a bowl of oatmeal (custom mix of ingredients) - takes 30 seconds to prep and 2.5 mins in the microwave (usually while I'm making coffee anyway).

That's pretty close to the ~2min claim. Not sure that should be taken literally anyway :)
I always wonder if this is a design flaw, or if there is another completely worse state that the body is trying to prevent happening, a state we don't even know about until we have "cured" inflammation and all these other diseases

sort of like how we wouldn't be studying a lot of this stuff right now if such a large portion of the population hadn't gotten so old
That's a bloomberg terminal keyboard.
> AFAIK, "lox" came to English through Yiddish

In Australia I have never heard the term - we goyim would just refer to a smoked-salmon bagel.
> Why can't health insurance companies sell across state lines right now?

Every state has unique requirements and Congress has never superseded them with a national health law.
I'm sorry to be a cynic. I love graphs. The web is a graph, web pages are graphs, linked data, machine learning all use graphs. And they can look really cool. I especially loved the hyperbolic graphs that were the rage a decade or two ago. I don't know how many projects I've dropped this type of viz in. Then removed it, because there are three different reactions from end users: It's scary and confusing, it looks neat but it's never used, or it looks neat and it's clicked on a few times. I hope as we move into massive data they become digestable for ordinary UI, but until then they're mostly actually useful for specific edge cases.
Intel have not been able to produce 10nm chips for 2 years now and they don't expect them until 2020. If the Ryzen 3000 leaks of a 15% IPC gain are proven to be true in a couple weeks then Intel is in real trouble. Add on additional performance losses with this mitigation and Intel is very likely to lose the top end of the CPU market for at least 2 years. INTC might look very different come the end of the month.

Presumably they know more about the root cause through looking at the logs. It would be so great if they could be more transparent about it.

On the surface it doesn’t make sense that a FW issue would be causing an issue with your TM3. What about the other ~200,000 cars on the road?

But to answer your last question, yes, it’s layers of incremental software functionality on the same hardware stack. Without knowing at which point it’s failing it’s hard to say if cruise could be enabled without AP.

As a point of comparison, I had my TM3 wrapped in protective film. As part of that process they removed trim including the side cameras to lay the film flat with fewer cuts. The shop (not Tesla affiliated) left the side cameras disconnected. Upon starting the car it reported an issue with side cameras. AP worked but degraded — wouldn’t change lanes, and cruise still worked fine. Some some hardware faults do not fully disable the feature.
(MemSQL VP of Product Management here)

We didn't intend the benchmarks to be a sales pitch. We are proud of the performance of MemSQL and what it has been able to achieve in our customers' workloads. We wanted a way to show what we are capable of with concrete numbers. We chose the standard benchmarks because they are well understood, not because they were necessarily representative of any given customer.

In general, benchmarks are useful to understand the strengths and weaknesses of a product at a basic level and how it compares to its peers, but we strongly encourage anyone evaluating their options to do a proper POC comparison on their actual use cases.
Not perfect, though. For example, Icelandic and Old Norse are very close in terms of how they're written, but (IIRC) have pretty substantial differences in pronunciation.
What is a backdoor if not this?
That's surprising to me. I came from Matlab too, and I found Numpy's indexing immediately simple and (to me) clearly superior. It seems largely a superset of Matlab's, but nicer (e.g. a[-3:] instead of a(end-3:end)). The biggest differences are the 0 base, and that slices are half open. What specifically did you find difficult?

Edit: I'm asking as I teach this stuff to undergrads and need to understand potential obstacles.
It sounds like Stellar would be a bad fit for your use-case, then, even while Bitcoin is useful.
Fascinating. Is there anywhere that illustrates this distinction in a form simple enough for us illiterate people to understand? /s

Your comment has nothing to do with state boundaries.
can managers fire their direct reports at most companies? not sure how common this is, but at my (relatively small) company, my boss cannot simply decide to fire me. he would have to go to the director (my skip level) or possibly a VP to actually have hiring/firing authority. of course, he's been there a lot longer than me and could probably persuade them if I was underperforming or causing problems.
By your logic craigslist sellers are employees of craigslist. What is craigslist but a network of buyers and sellers?
IMHO, it's not. Their intentions are well founded, but I can find no safety or trust in a group that considers rationality a personal choice.
its easier to trust private hackers than organizations that have the law on their side

society works with mutual cooperation and hackers seem to understand that more than the "technically cooperating in this context" that the legal field would employ
Since google tracks customers they can target a lot without keyword searches. I can imagine the homepage click price would be high for “pregnant women over 45 with an income over $100k” and stuff like that.

Aaaaand none of that matters. Not many people enjoy sitting there, mapping stuff, so openstreetmap is not going to get any better without corporations contributing to it like they do with Linux kernel.

Lawsuits doesn't matter much as well - with Google's power they can either:

- Afford a settlement, bunch of them
- Make the litigation to take long-long-long time
- Lobby for some law to protect them.

Nobody ain't gonna switch to anymore. Folks that are ok with Apple maps are already using it and besides Apple maps there is no huge competitor. Here we Go maps are good for navigation but they don't know anything about business around you so good luck finding anything that you don't know precise address for.

Even folks on iPhones who use Apple Maps have Google Maps installed. For me it:

- I just drive around to a place I know about: Apple Maps
- I need to find a place by name: Google Maps
- I go to bush: Here we Go maps a maybe Google Maps because I can download them as well.

People need to realise that Google is unstoppable machine right now with _enormous_ resources and they can do almost whatever.

Recently EU slapped a "huge" fine on Google. So what? What happened? Has anything changed?

The real solution is for corporations who depend on navigation services is to pay people to contribute to openstreetmap like it happens with Linux kernel right now. Freedom for people, tool for business, all win.
FWIW, today, if you want to see what real modern combat is actually like, just go to YouTube and type "combat helmet cam".

Funny, the only "lox" I know of is shorthand for liquid oxygen.
This is a big problem with a lot of Japanese language learning material written for English speakers. There seems to be this false notion that pitch accent is not important enough to teach Japanese learners, so it’s not learned until much later. As a result for a lot of people who are at the intermediate level, pitch accent is the main distinguishing factor between sounding native and sounding like a foreigner.
