In 2014, when this was originally written, I'd totally agree - but it was 4.5 years ago and a lot of things have changed in the meantime. At the moment I'm dealing with one jQuery old-school project and while on one hand it's really a nice feeling to debug code without constantly waiting for webpack to finish compiling the code, most of the time I'm really in pain. After years of working in Vue and React it just feels ugly and messy and it's much more complicated to understand and refactor. To quote on one of my fav Stephen King's books "the world has moved on" since then...

I've seen it happen. There are plenty widely publicized instances of it happening, too.

Anyway I said "could", not "would". It depends on how coarse you are with it, how dogged you are in doing so despite being told no, how many different people you do it to, and of course if you're reported.

The overall point is, though, that it's not a good idea.
That's a rather sexist statement telling men what they should be thinking.
The Pixel 3 has a "Titan M" chip with much reduced attack surface compared to the TEE. Don't otherwise know much about it.
A larger issue for electric companies is staying on the grid is slowly starting to be a bad deal for home owners. A minimum electric bill with zero usage covers the electric grid and administrative costs etc. It’s normally not much, but ever cheaper solar and battery systems are competing with that same electric grid.

This varies by area, but could quickly become a death spiral over much of the US.
It does create a public paper trail of community sentiment though.
https://2018.stateofjs.com/front-end-frameworks/overview/ is my favorite source. Angular is losing ground every year.
The key points are that the engines do produce lift at high AofA, and it is this, not thrust, that creates the problem MCAS was intended to fix.

Is that really true? I agree that the pitch-up torque from engine thrust does not vary based on AoA, but the elevator deflection needed to counteract said torque definitely depends on airspeed and hence on AoA. Even if there was no aerodynamic effect of the engines at all, the pilot would be required to trim nose-down as airspeed goes down relative to an airplane with centerline thrust.

If the thrust gets high enough, at some point this pitch torque would overwhelm the natural tendency of the airplane to pitch down as airspeed goes down and result in negative longitudinal stability.

My impression is that MCAS was intended to counteract the decreasing stick force with decreasing airspeed. Both effects, offcenter thrust and aerodynamics, combine to produce the same effect.
I'd love answers to these questions too. Svelte looks cool from a technology perspective but honestly it's biggest selling point is solving problems I don't have.
> They are at the coast and it's not misleading since they produce much more and even have to turn off turbines.

It is clearly misleading to point at an island of green energy when there's coal all around it.

> Because of politics, money and lobbying. There are jobs in the coal industry especially in the east germany where Fascism is getting powerful.

That still doesn't add up. Just because you want to keep coal jobs alive doesn't mean you have to burn it at home. You can just export it, coal is valuable. The only reason you need subsidies is because extraction is too expensive when done by German labor.

> Wind turbines have to be turned off because the sparse power lines infrastructure is clogged with dirty power.

That's an "interesting" way to frame the high volatility of wind energy against the low volatility of other methods, when having to buffer that volatility is the main problem.

> As you have seen, the reasons why renewables are not even further and even more relevant are beyond the technically related reasons.

I haven't "seen" anything. No numbers, no calculations. I'm sure there's some impact of coal lobbying, but that can't be what prevents the development of alternatives. Germany has blown an incredible amount of subsidies into wind energy, so now you're telling me there's none left to solve its problems because of coal?
The usfs is short 50k people in Appalachia?
Similar feelings for the first point, we differ on the second.

Personally speaking, I never saw any kind of underclass developing with these evented systems techniques, if anything, blockage decreased and teams got decoupled. (caveat that could have just been introduction of solid versioning and maintaining backwards compatibility)

I saw much greater attrition with the onset of unit testing and enforced code reviews. But that also led to much higher quality developers so maybe that had a bit to do with it. (the ones that stayed got better and the ones that joined were stronger)

> People either self teach event based thinking or struggle.

I feel like if you're dumping a new way of thinking on your staff, any staff, and then expect them to self teach or have zero support you're asking for problems, I don't think that makes event systems more complicated than REST. Rest involves a crap tonne of thinking to get right if you're able to easily blur the lines between RPC and REST or the client and server code.
They removed the end/half time voice chat, so that is no longer an issue. People still call you a hacker, especially if you start the first couple rounds out doing well.

The game is now F2P so the number of hackers is also way up as it is. I still enjoy the game, but I basically mute my team unless they are cool and helpful. I prefer to play on Faceit and with my friends. And I no longer am invested in rank or winning, just trying to improve individually.

You're point is dead on about the game though, I understand why people hate it. Voice chat is full of kids thinking they are edgy by dropping racial slurs or homophobic stuff, people don't work together, and there are hackers in so many games. If there was a better competitive shooter for PC I would probably play it. R6 Siege just doesn't do it for me, and all the other games are king of the hill style games now (Apex, PUBG, Fortnite, even CSGO Danger Zone). COD on PC was never fun for me. Really it's Battlefield but people don't really play that as competitively. If there was another option I would probably play it.
Didn't AOC disseminate that information to her minions recently? It has probably infected some of the HDBs on HN.
ROUNDUP MAY BE CARCINOGENIC, GLYPHOSATES ARE SAFE, AND MONSANTO IS AT FAULT

Having skimmed some publications, that is my best conclusion. Like all active ingredients, glyphosate was thoroughly tested for safety. Then to boost the efficiency, questionable "inactive" ingredients were added that enhance glyphosates getting into cells. "Inactive" ingredients are largely unregulated, and were probably not tested for safety. Why regulators allowed these additives to be labelled inactive ingredients is anyone's guess.

If my understanding is correct, it is a sad state of affairs. Here, we have this wonderful herbicide, but its name has been shattered because Monsanto (now owned by Bayer) starting mixing glyphosates with unsafe ingredients.

It doesn't help that Europe's IARC is classifying everything as possibly carcinogenic (including radio waves) because one or a few unsubstantiated studies claim it cause tumors in mice (or whatever). The IARC (in my opinion) is doing a disservice by distracting the public from more likely causes of cancer.
There was also plenty of right wing terrorism (the Klan in particular)
As well it should be? We've shown time and time again that the source of funding control a) whether or not results get published, e.g. 99 "bad results" don't ever get published but the 1 "good result" is, and b) the extent to which the design and execution of the study is biased towards a "good result".

The pendulum has swung very wide in favor of controlling interests, in fact I would argue that a large portion of the "anti-science" sentiment we are seeing is due to the perceived rigging of the scientific landscape. I say perceived here because even if 95% of science produced today is good the ones that directly affect the public and garner headlines are going to be related directly to a corporate interest, e.g. pharma, chemical companies etc. Also of note, guess who doctored the results about vaccines and autism? A credentialed scientist, obviously retracted at this point but I would put it to you that the very fact that this got published represents to the laity that there is a fundamental problem in science today.

Science was the belle of the ball in the early/mid 20th century, then had the benefit of the doubt as the century ended but now clearly has a public reputation problem. Getting money(the wrong kind) out of science is just as important as getting money out of politics, you should not trust the result of an article paid for by Monsanto anymore than you should trust the politician that they have bought as well.
Startups, KYC, and Opportunity
It's not sexist to point out that men historically have held disproportionate cultural, social, economic, and political power and continue to do so to this day.
Tools that have changed how I think about things, and yes some are hyped things you have probably heard of. But the opposite effect of people ignoring it because it's too hyped might come into play:

Docker - figuring out what you really need to get something running and having a reproducible way of doing it. I did a blog post on it: https://stackabuse.com/how-docker-can-make-your-life-easier-...

Node JS - much derided, but nothing compares in terms of the speed you can quickly hack up a tool in Node JS and the ecosystem you have access to. I don't use it as production server, but just as a quick way to hack up tools.

Pandoc - being using this tool to convert markdown to PDF, and it does a nice job. Uses Latex & friends so you can find a nice template somewhere and base off that.

Markdown - I love using markdown formats. Especially with the tooling, things like Pandoc and Github are enough to justify learning a bit of MD.

Touchtyping - Makes typing a bit nicer and a bit faster. I could type without looking at the keyboard before, but now I don't lose my hands, just feel the bumps!
I’m very sceptical of this explanation. Sexism probably still plays a role, but not nearly as big a role as population-level average differences in personality/interests.

They did preliminary testing and the displays worked fine. Elon made a judgement call to give the go-ahead. His rationale being that no automotive grade screens that size we're available because no one did any testing on them.

It was only real-world exposure that revealed the mistake in part choice.

The united states is the only nation in the world that attacks and breaks up its own private sector to make itself less competitive in global markets. This is why people make fun of americans.

Why didn't the Apollo 10 astronauts fly back up as part of Apollo 11 since they handled their mission so well and the 11 was pretty much identical?
Other than changing a core system across hundreds of stores, being held up by scotch tape, prayers and manual processes? Some ungodly mix of obsolete tech like Oracle DB, unsupported Microsoft fad from decades ago, crap hardware? Gargantuan codebases without version control?

This is all real-world examples I have personally witnessed in the field, I'm not a greying veteran.

I saw a country-wide costumer-facing e-commerce site displaying the wrong prices for days because the ElasticSearch cache was being manually updated daily by someone who was on her probation period, not even a proper employee yet. She ran that job manually daily for months, including weekends, holidays, etc, until her father died and the production site was in stasis for that time. I'm pretty sure this was never ackknowledged oficially and she is still there earning about 1000€ per month.
Not all coal mining happens in Appalachia (this specific company mines in Wyoming and Montana). Is it unreasonable to expect it straightforward to transition workers from an industry that employs less people than Arby's (the fast food establishment) into other roles?
I agree, but I bet we begin seeing other car companies using large displays and suddenly display manufacturers will start selling properly-designed, large displays.
Yeah, at some point denial is the most acceptable option.

It's arguably not so much "science will save us" as "economics will save us". That's almost a religion in the US. Also, some distrust science on religious basis. And some even believe that it's all part of the coming apocalypse. Which is God's will.
I built a framework in Ruby for both req/resp and pub/sub between two datacenters over RabbitMQ that massively outperformed the HTTPS calls it replaced. Unfortunately the only part I was able to open source was the log formatter.
If This Is True It's a Disaster. Three Major US Antivirus Companies Breached?
This is intriguing -- I would guess that a successful strategy would be to short stocks with high growth that have a CEO with "evolutionarily advantageous" traits (height, attractiveness, depth of voice) ... and go long stocks with high growth that have CEO's lacking these characteristics:

The company with the "suave" CEO is likely building revenue as a result of sales and people charisma rather than core innovation.
Who's looking at net zero emission? Let's get back to the Paris agreement targets. The Obama administration enacted the Clean Power Plan [1], with the main aim of having the 2030 emissions 32% below the 2005 levels. The last official numbers from the EIA [2] show a level in 2017 that is 14% below the 2005 level. The EIA does not have final 2018 numbers yet, but it project an uptick in emissions, followed by a decrease in 2019 and 2020, so in 2020 we'll be roughly at the same level of 14% below 2005. That leaves 18% reduction to be achieved in 10 years (after 14% in 15). Very difficult, but not impossible. It obviously depends on who's in the White House, but not exclusively.

The bad news is that the EIA projects that the US emissions will remain at the roughly the current levels until 2050.

What can be done? Obviously, more renewables are a potential answer; the EIA already included them in the projection, assuming current laws and government incentives, and reasonable technological advances. If we want more renewables, we probably need a bit more government subsidies, or maybe a bit of help from Musk.

Nuclear is another option. I'm personally very pro-nuclear, but I'm aware of the general reservations, so I'm not holding my breath.

Replacement of coal power plants with natural gas achieves substantial emissions reductions, but this was taken into account by the EIA .

Massive changes in automotive fleet from gas-powered to electric were not projected by the EIA ([4], p. 25: "petroleum remains the dominant fuel used in vehicles throughout the projection period").

But here's the biggest way you can make a difference. Just say "Yes". Yes as in "Yes in my Backyard". Yes as in the opposite of "Not in my Backyard". If more building is allowed in the main metropolitan areas in the US, then tens of millions of people would move from suburbs to the densely populated cities like NYC or SF. Population density means less transportation for lots of goods filling the malls, less construction for streets, better building insulation, more people biking to work or using public transportation, fewer school buses, I can go on and on.

The best part is that this would not involve a sacrifice to the economic growth. This would go hand in hand with increased economic growth. How many startups are not viable in SF because the rent is so damn high?

Who would not benefit? People who expect that buying a house means the right for future capital appreciation without moving a finger. Some would even go as far as characterizing these people as rent extractors.

Oh, and I think we should also desalinate more water and plant more trees.

And notably Apple locks out some companies from the same kind of integrations that 1P apps get. The only use I have for Safari is that it’s the browser most apps open. And Apple won’t release Siri actions for music, putting Spotify at a big disadvantage.
No, it is very much dissimilar. Security personnel who work for Blackwater make a conscious decision to do so and are flown overseas to physically enact Blackwater's business decisions. Many (maybe most?) of the people who sell vulnerabilities and (to a lesser extent) exploitation tools to spyware firms are selling through brokers, and aren't directly connected to the ultimate end purpose of their work.

You can say that people who sell vulnerabilities to unaffiliated-seeming, neutral-seeming, innocuous-seeming brokers ought to know better where their work is going to end up, and I suppose that's true, but it's still not the same dynamic as exists with Blackwater.

Synopsis of the article:

- First half: Shakespeare didn't write the plays himself.

- Second half: Life of Emilia Bassano, and "traces" thereof in some of Shakespeare's work, as narrated by "Emilia Bassano’s most ardent champion" John Hudson.

In all honesty, the only quote I could find that attempts to substantiate the claim of Emilia Bassano as Shakespeare, about 3/4 in the piece, is the one I quoted. The claim doesn't stand on its face, as she's a published author and her style doesn't match Shakespeare's work. Case closed.

If you have another quote that substantiates the claim in the title, would you please share it, instead of engaging in threats and personal attacks?

Edit: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. As far as my reading comprehension goes, a conservative interpretation of the evidence in the article supports at best "Emilia Bassano inspired some of Shakespeare's work". I can't explain the jump to "Emilia Bassano wrote all of Shakespeare's work", maybe you can help. Going with the conservative interpretation, the article seems better fit for the Literary Review magazine.

Ask HN: Finding an article on opportunity jobs I saw on here awhile ago
It was a news article which highlighted jobs that, compared to cost of living, provided decent wages. I believe the phrasing "opportunity jobs" was used. My google-fu has failed me, as I get a lot of hits on "opportunity zones". Does anyone else remember the article I'm thinking of?

I'm interested in finding the paper it was based on.

The update can be analyzed to see what was changed, even if we only have the binary executable. If we know that an app contains intentional bugs, just looking at where the update made changes could eliminate a lot of looking & find the bugs even faster! There are many automated tools that can do this too, eg. Fuzzing. The updates can also hint us where the previous bug was and what to look out for in the future.

So, nope. Introducing security bugs and backdoors just makes it insecure for everyone.
I so tired of the excess tooling and incompetent reliance upon it. You don’t need layers of frameworks and 150mb of dependencies to build a tiny web app. Without all the helpful bullshit in the way I can get the job done 10x faster.
