Just as an FYI, the Fraser institute is one of those organizations where you know the conclusion of their report just by seeing the subject in the title. I would be gobsmacked if I read an article by them that had anything positive to say about Canadian healthcare.
No, they don't provide such user support, it's a free service after all.

But the keyword is not hard to find, really ;P
If you read the article, you'd see that is the opposite of what is being requested.
Transgender "acceptance". Giving hormones to tweens for the sake of a rounding error of the population will be looked down by history in the same light as burning witches to save their souls.
I post here fairly often, and people have been interested in what I'm doing with my life.

I was a Software Engineer. I sold all my stuff, and went out and lived my dream.
The future missiles are going to be shiny.

As in "mirrors".

The BIG SECRET of directed energy weaponry is that there's a very simple and cheap method of reducing absorbed energy by orders of magnitude - reflect it in arbitrarty directions (or even towards the source if one wants to be naughty).

The sensors (which have to absorb EM radiation to function) are vulnerable, but can be easily protected by shutters for the duration of attack. Modern inertial navigation units are well capable of providing precise guidance without any external data.
YEC on its own isn't anti-science as much as about metaphysics. The main objections are more about why God would create fossils that look millions of years old. That is an interesting point, but it is a theological point, not a scientific one.

That being said, there are a lot of folks who are bad at metaphysics involved in the discussion that tend to drown out the more coherent takes on the subject.

But this is a broad and diverse area of discussion. It's not fair to say "The Church" is anti-science with respect to a metaphysical subject.
The Go is 3x3 (3DOF HMD, 3DOF simple controller) and the Quest is 6x6 (6DOF HMD, dual 6DOF touch controllers) which is a quantum leap of a difference.

While the former is only good mostly for 360 photo/video and some not-so-immersive experiences, the latter lets you basically have VR experiences w/ with full hand and head tracking on par with the best PC VR out there. I have a CV1 and a wireless Vive (a Go and Focus as well) and I'm incredibly impressed by the Quest - the polish on the setup/intro app (the dancing robot is my new favorite demo showcasing the potential/visceral impact VR can have), and personally, I think the Quest is the first true "mainstream" ready VR product - I hope everyone at least tries it for themselves before completely dismissing it.
I completely agree. Working on complex enterprise Python applications, a pretty significant suite of bugs comes from long-lived, mutable objects. We’ve generally had good luck with preferring immutability wherever possible, both using builtins (tuples rather than lists when possible, frozenset) and custom classes. I just wish frozendict was part of the stdlib!
The Gusto co-founder describes his role and changes as they grew to 100 engineers in this blog: https://engineering.gusto.com/how-my-role-as-cto-has-changed...

I found it reassuring I wasn’t the only founder who still felt they could provide more value by helping build and architect the product than just simply managing budgets and recruiting.
I don’t think so, but copy/pasting the Wikipedia article on the Tiananmen Square massacre would probably do the trick.
"Tiananmen Square" or "Tiananmen 1989" will probably work for as long as there is a GFW.
They’d have to use a license similar to MongoDB’s.
Yes, yes. Very true, optimizers can break in interesting ways. And yet, 99.9% of the time when some whiner says: “The optimzer broke my software!” it is an uninitialized variable.

The other 0.1% of failures kept my team busy enough. But I never allocated any time to your problem until you proved that you had no uninitialized variables.
I'm pretty sure most visitors here are familiar with both of these since they are almost part of HN canon but I'll include them here for completeness:

Any sign of this issue being solved somehow?

I think it's fair to recognize the diverse group of people in the "church" and to be careful casting ire around. There are quite a few scientists and intellectual heavyweights involved, for instance.
Who are you quoting here?

>"therefore church is unequivocally and obviously a net positive on the fabric of society (than some people say)"

If it’s me, how do you get to your statement from

>I have a feeling that church plays a larger role in maintaining a healthy society than it is given credit in some circles.
And who put them in charge? :P
This is a really good point. Although I still inexplicably love the matte screen swivel head G3s...
But ... did they fix the keyboard?
Yeah, but why not get a cheaper MacBook Air if you don't need the power?
It remains to be seen whether most software developers value the services that Wolfram provides enough to swallow the proprietary pill.
That's a fair reading, I guess.
Many people, including myself, choose to exist rather than not exist. It's very simple.
I studied as an EE. I struggled as a freshman to figure out how flip-flops work (building blocks of registers) when it dawned on me while in the shower that they only work due to propagation delay. What an eye openning shower that was...
Yea I honestly don't fully understand how many cores my commercial license uses, but every now and then it tells me that I need to register my license when it is already registered. After some digging, I figured out that I could only have 4 instances open at a time and sometimes Windows would keep one running in the background which would be 5, so I would have to close it out in the task manager and it would then work again. This made me sad.
I was really asking about the keywords he typed that showed the "slides" in the terminal. For instance, when he typed in "builtins" at the beginning, it cleared his screen and then showed a quick ASCII art image. I suppose he could have just built these functions, but if there is a tool that he might be using, that would be pretty handy.
Mesh networks unfortunately scale really poorly [1]: O(1/sqrt(N)). You really need a fat backbone to turn the topology into something more like a hypercube.

TypeScript 3.0: The Unknown Type
I am not claiming tesla is the only one, i used that as an example. You are making the inverse claim that you cannot buy a non connected car with your "don't need to see a doctor" analogy.

Article is not about cars that "have computers and data" its about connected cars that are sharing personal information ( how fast we drive, where we live, how many children we have — even financial information ) with manufacturer.

Do you know what % of cars in the market today are sending this information back to manufacturer ?

Huh? That milestone was reached some years ago.

What has not yet been achieved is ignition--a self-sustaining reaction that does not require continuous energy input.

> how many pounds of fusion fuel does it take to level a city?

We already know how to make a fusion reaction that will level a city. Having a working controlled fusion reactor would not affect our capability to level cities. So I really don't understand why you keep harping on this.
Flutter for web is not ready for primetime, reasons: WebGL and SVG
Reactance (psychology)
It depends a lot on the software. Games that have been ported to VR are particularly bad (Skyrim makes my head spin). Games that are VR first (Beat Saber, Superhot) don't force as much head motion and are much gentler to play.
Sharing data directly from mobile sounds like a poor idea since data caps and data volume pricing is rampant in many countries. Plus it is likely to make a poor battery life even worse. I would rather folks upload data on their home or shared servers for sharing purposes.
There could be a more indirect effect of religious belief on healthy society. Hypothetically social capital could build up over the years and deeply affect hard-to-measure things like trust and fair governance.

If that's the case, it could take more than a couple decades for drastic change in beliefs to transform a country.
Personally, I don't procrastinate on things I believe will pose a challenge. I procrastinate on the easy but tedious things.
Yes, this project is misleading, in fact, in mainland China to visit foreign websites is not slow, there are only two cases, blocked or not blocked, the former simply can not open, the latter fast enough. There are many surfers in mainland China who buy VPN servers located in such as the US and then have quick access to the blocked websites, indicating that the lines are fast enough. If your site is embedded with a JavaScript code come from the blocked website (a limited number, such as Facebook, Google), it will also cause your page can not to load, just remove the js code and nothing else is wrong. It is not recommended to be misled by this site.
no no, that's what i mean: he hacked the REPL up to hell and gone, and is actually using it to run his presentation. It's nuts. See ~04:20 where he briefly alludes to that in the talk.
I don't see how. David Brin's Uplift universe is bureaucratic, with interspecies interactions heavily regulated and angling towards preserving, not eliminating life.

Cixin Liu's vision is purely game-theoretic, where anyone who makes noise is likely to be preemptively sniped by someone else, out of pure sense of self-preservation. I don't recall seeing this concept anywhere else.
Ah... then OK, I agree with him. It's weird to use western style with Japanese names.
Yeah, my friend did that against Samsung in Canada and it was an automatic win. A few days before the court appearance Samsung bent and sent him the money.

"Power as 1 to 7". I don't think so: the cable's tension is paralleled six ways against the load, so 6 times the force.
Yup I was actually typing this on a T440p. Excellent deal with this laptop.
I have experienced the exact same thing in Python and it feels bad to not make changes out of fear of breaking something. So much so that I won't do refactoring on a large codebase written in a dynamic language with not great code coverage (i.e. pretty much every one I've worked on professionally).

This is where static typing can help a _lot_ in my experience. Your types (and your function signatures) are contracts you still need to adhere to after you're done refactoring. Keep making changes until the compiler tells you it's all good and then usually it is.
The Rift S has a higher max refresh rate, which might at least partially explain the difference
No I'm saying the supply is artificially constrained by the price of "free" so there is less incentive to go into medicine, hence shortages at the price demanded.
This sounds like a positive claim that could use proof.
It's small business accounts. Now even smaller!
I have been saving money hard upon the belief that this upcoming recession is going to wipe a lot of people out, more than usual.

I think this is similar to something the author wrote: I see people making $100k out of school who have been in industry working for 3-4 years, living paycheck to paycheck with minimal savings. They go to very nice restaurants, have 1 bedroom apartments in trendy neighborhoods, and travel.

I actually believe that the upcoming recession is not going to be particularly brutal to tech. If that's the case, the gap of the middle class will only accelerate in the bay area, and elsewhere. That scares me.
What would this accomplish? I use Linux for my computers but I still log into to numerous cloud services.
That has been my experience. I've walked into an ER twice with heart palpitations. The first time I had an EKG, chest x-ray, and specialist consult and was in and out within 45 minutes. The second time was more serious and I was admitted, treated, seen by a cardiologist, and sent to a cardiac ward for overnight monitoring without being taken off the gurney. I know people who have walked in to their GP to investigate a lump in their breast and been under the knife a week later. They don't mess around with serious time-sensitive stuff.

But I have heard that the wait time for old people who need hip or knee replacements is quite excessive.
I have no inside info on this incident and haven't worked for Google in over 4 years, but the description of the 14-day 2019-only issue sounds like it would have affected only a subset of users whose data they included in a sample for troubleshooting purposes. The sample rate they use is probably far below 100%.

(Once again: this is speculation based on general firsthand knowledge about how Google operates, but I know nothing specific to this incident.)

That’s why I said “somewhat better“. But ask 100 black persons how much mobility they have, and see how many say “I have completed mobility, race doesn’t matter. White supremacy is a myth.” Or the brown people who wash your restaurant dishes, mow yours SV lawns and clean your SV office toilets. Sure, many are immigrants who come here because they have more opportunities than where they came from, but that’s moving up a rung in the caste system, not escaping it. Even the liberal essays I read advocating more immigration or amnesty say things like “Who else will pick our fruit?”. I cringe and am ashamed for us every time I read something like that.

Even in India in theory you have mobility, as the country has tried to address it the same way America has tied to correct a history of racism: caste-based discrimination is illegal, and there is affirmative action / quotas to correct imbalances. But just as here, where 150 years after the Civil War and 50 years after MLK we have a racially stratified society, so the problem persists in India.
Any implications are based on exactly what you said. You painted a picture of the scenario about like looking through Jello.

In one sentence you say you made an inappropriate comment and apologized, and later lament that one misconstrued comment can cost you a job, but that’s not what happened.

It seems like you still don’t feel any responsibility. Maybe the woman did tempt you, I don’t know what she said, but you make it seems as if she made the words come from your mouth. If she made sexually suggestive comments first, that’s wrong and she should’ve been disciplined as well, but how is anyone to know that when you can’t be straightforward.
You want --no-ignore-vcs. There are several other --no-ignore-* flags. ripgrep is a lot more flexible than ag there. And its implementation of the gitignore matching rules should work a lot better than ag. (Search ag's issue tracker to see just how many bugs there are. I'd be surprised if you weren't hitting any of them!)

As for a pager, that's pretty easy to solve: `rg foo | less -F`. Add `-R` to make colors work.

You don't need to search a 9.5GB file to make ag upset. All it takes is ~2GB. A key advantage of ripgrep over ag is that you don't have to just use it for code searching. It actually works just as well any place you'd use standard grep. ag just doesn't have an implementation that's good enough to be that robust.

Contrary to what most people are saying in this thread, I have the latest MacBook Pro revision (2017 model?) and I absolutely love using it. I really like the keyboard and haven't had any problems with it malfunctioning.
Very valid point, thank you!
This part, "history of violence", makes it clear we talk of the US.
In addition, as we were troubleshooting new G Suite customer sign-up flows, we discovered that starting in January 2019 we had inadvertently stored a subset of unhashed passwords in our secure encrypted infrastructure. These passwords were stored for a maximum of 14 days.

Is this another way of saying they stored cleartext passwords? Interesting they choose to use "uncashed" instead of "cleartext"

Google has it's own internal SQL dialect. It's the same that is also used in Cloud Spanner. I think it's mostly standard complaint, but less feature complete than the standard sql dialects.
Here's an idea: Only use the cameras to compound fault to unthinkable scales in the event of an accident. Triple fines and threaten felony jail time for accidents that can be shown to involve running red lights.

I think, had the premise of traffic cameras been introduced under the pretext of evidence application in cases of true harm and fault, they might have been embraced.

Instead, they've been opportunisticlly exploited to rip people off, and steal money, leading to a proliferation of more cameras stealing more money. And the money pretty much goes where local government payola dictates.

Had traffic cameras only been applied to accidents after the fact, especially when fatalities were involved, they might have been praised for revealing truth.

The lesson: only punish those that inflict harm, and only after the harm is inflicted.

If the harm is too frequent, reconfigure the timing of the lights, or redesign the intersection, so that humans aren't tempted to cause dangerous or conflicting situations.

Keep in mind that the dark forest theory hinges on two axioms that will likely be true for interstellar relations, while remain false for terrestrial ones. The two axioms are clearly stated in the books: 1) large communication delay, and 2) unpredictable technological jumps. The idea of the dark forest is that communication delay makes it difficult to build trust, and even if you start in superior position, it's possible for the other side to leap ahead of you technologically in the middle of those very long talks.

People care significantly less about racism which is why it doesn’t often end careers, but instead leads to sensitivity training or an apology. In many, probably most, cases it’s exactly he-said-she-said because people aren’t usually stupid/arrogant enough to leave physical proof of their racism.

It's an extremely odd decision by the author to publish this piece. Port attacks on cryptocurrency accounts is nothing new, and outside of publishing the number ($100k!) there is nothing special about this account of events vs the countless other near identical articles that have been published on Medium on the same old attack.

The reason I say it's odd is that he's an engineering manager at BitGo, which is a leading cryptocurrency custody solution! His job is literally to secure and protect institutional cryptocurrency wallets, and to publicly tell the world how careless he was with his own personal account looks extremely poorly on his employer despite the fact that this was an unrelated incident.

>A 2016 IIHS study found that the fatal red-light running crash rate in cities that shut off their cameras increased 30 percent relative to similar cities that had not. In cities that had eliminated camera enforcement, the overall fatal crash rate at signalized intersections was 16 percent higher than in cities where the programs were maintained.

These back-to-back sentences from the article sound like they're describing the same situation but with 2 very different numbers— am I misparsing something?
