It's not really a massive time investment. Consider people you see every morning doing a sudoku or crossword on a patio at a coffee shop or on a subway. That's basically what TAOCP is to me, a past-time/hobby, leisurely going through the psets and trying to do things like patch an ancient algorithm or solve some basic number theory puzzles (Vol 2). Djb often refers and quotes the volumes in talks which is one reason why I started reading them, to understand how to hand roll and optimize assembly libraries https://cr.yp.to/talks/2015.04.16/slides-djb-20150416-a4.pdf

There is also the benefits of learning direct programming of hardware, for example MIXAL, used in the first 3 volumes (replaced by MMIXAL) is meant to be run without an operating system. Maybe you want to play around with direct control of a RISC-V chip or fpga or understand the quantum abstract machine Rigetti built and it's instruction language.
Spring is terrible in that sense, and you do find professionals arguing for Spring and strongly typed language. That said it's not an argument I've ever heard before being part of a Spring centric shop.

What? of course they do. The moment a physical reaction or process is applied to industry, you can bet someone will file a patent.

At engineering school, it is common for professors, students, etc, to patent technology they invent. Colleges have entire departments.

For the gym it's worked consistently for several years. The idea is that you build a habit in the brain so that you do it "because that's what you do". Similar to you brush your teeth when you do into the chrome in your pyjamas, you don't make a decision to do it.
Most companies hide behind the claim that if users block IP tracking, since they "can't" get geo without IP, it's opt-out. Oath in particular will use any excuse to opt-in by default, but so will most news sites. Regulators seem OK with that.

Well because it confuses causation and correlation in addition to being a fertile ground for confirmation bias. Not to mention the rich history of "last time".

Even if group X is lower it telks you nothing about Y and allows the jump to justification for travesties like eugenics if it is "clearly their genes", wiping out culture and engaging in mass child theft "if it is their culture" and whatever other sick and twisted rationalizations occur.

Except oops - it was comparing subsistence farmers in a disease ridden area to vaccinated and well fed and educated upper middle class! Or the tests are based upon preconceived notions themselves and they did worse because the "neutral" puzzles assumed left to right as associated with temporal flow.

Here's a more complete picture for the case when all ice melts and sea levels rise by 60+ meters: http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/environment/waterworld.html
(note: by a "skeptic")

> Today the Earth has 148 million sq. km of land area, of which 16 million sq. km is covered by glaciers. A sea level rise of 66 meters would flood about 13 million sq. km of land outside Antarctica. Without polar ice, Antarctica and Greenland would be ice free, although about half of Antarctica would be under water. Thus, ice-free land would be 128 million sq. km compared to 132 million sq. km today.

I can't check all the calculations, but this result doesn't seem too terrible since we'd likely be able to migrate affected people in time.

The first part is the boring answer

> On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity. [1]

So anyhow, given you'd actively used the kite site it the past, you should be able to see how it satisfied your own intellectual curiosity in the past. Clearly, it's not relevant to you today, but perhaps you can see how it's relevant to others. Also, your experience can help drive some conversation with new kite makers.

the second part is some gentle advice - please don't take this as a criticism, just an observation. Try to take joy in other people being one of the 10,000 [2].

Computer Architecture 1

It was required for Computer Engineering majors (my major), but I believe an elective for Electrical Engineering and Computer Science majors.
Well PHP and .NET do not play in the same league. But it is about consistent language and library design. Great failure in PHP and great success in .NET/C#.

I developed PHP till 2007, then as a hobby project in 2013. Massive improvement. And I heard very good things about performance the last years. Swoole even can compete with the top tear languages
I definitely appreciate being able to drop into an OOP style when I find it's necessary.

I personally don't see Go and Elixir's primary domains as being equal, or one a superset of the other. So there's some argument to be made about the region where they overlap, but for something inherently based around fault-tolerance and distribution, seems to me that code written to run on the BEAM will be smaller and clearer and therefore more maintainable.
I had never heard of the site. It's something of interest to me.
Going much smaller than we have right now, and you run up against some exotic issues--if you decrease the dielectric thickness, you run the risk of break down between the gate and source/drain under normal operating conditions. Your steady current rating also drops dramatically if the other feature sizes are decreased. I would probably say a 3 atom MOSFET is not possible, since at that scale you can't really have an effective dielectric between the atoms, and the conductors connected to the "single-atom terminals" will have a bulk effect on the behavior.
The historical example is not such a clear because there are other variables like wars that caused large destruction and countries that lost the war had to pay damages.

What I am thinking is this, the smart people that want to become scientists do not do it to make money for some company, they do it for passion and help people in the case of people that learned to become doctors and research medical treatments. You need a system that finds this smart people when they graduate and place them in research institution paid by the public. You can have private companies research other stuff but don't put all the core research into private companies that are motivated of making profit. You have for example the military founded by tons of money that some of them go into research, my suggestion is have health research similarly prioritized as the military. You could even pay private research institution but when you pay for research all the results get put in the public domain.
> Communism isn't necessarily the best, but it provides a converse theory to start the discussion.

Well, compared to capitalism its much more utopistic - I mean how far it is from reality of human nature and how much you should expect from people in the system.

As history shows us numerous times, it really doesn't matter how good things look on the paper or during academic discussions. The reality is, evil, messed up, unbalanced, sociopathic etc. folks are part of society. I don't mean in insane asylums, I mean in schools, hospitals, corporations, hackernews, everywhere. And somehow, for number of reasons, when numerous factors combine these people rise to power although they shouldn't. Every communism I am aware of ended up as dictatorship very quickly. In real capitalism, they come and go much more quickly and the impact is smoothed out over time.

This is the breaking point for me where the system is obviously worse - in communism, those dictators always ended up as net loss for citizens and mankind. And you gotta be brutal if you want to force millions into situations they wouldn't choose themselves. There are other obvious issues - no private ownership means nobody will work hard to maintain/enhance/create if at the end benefits are marginal at best. Better enjoy that beer.

And over time, these things compound and the result is always the same. Capitalism wins through sheer efficiency and overall upper hand. When comparing similar starting systems, its pretty clear which is more beneficial.

But yeah, it looks cool and very nice on the paper, or in TV like Star Trek.
You need the opposite of an extension, because in-browser crypto is incompatible with having any other "untrusted" extension. What you need is something with a reduced but secure feature set.
great job! I wish more projects have 1-click deploy to Heroku, aws, gcp or azure. This is a good habit more people should get into.

It is, and few care. "Silence, pre-ticked boxes or inactivity should not therefore constitute consent."

Science behind ideology, or ideology behind science?

If you look at sociology and anthropology, the evidence of the ability of human civilizations to handle problems with the time scale nuclear waste requires seems to be lacking. That the physics says it can be done safely does not prove that the other fields of science say it is likely to be done safely.

There is a massive problem in tying a real issue we don’t understand fully into being synonymous with a specific solution (tax policy) supported by a single political ideology.

Don't you have to sign a BCPA or something along that line to get full support? Apple had full access to source code -- which then Apple turned it over to Intel, QCOM alleged -- and also demanded that QCOM update their hardware and drivers at least once a year.
Not exactly a zero-sum game because the earth isn’t a closed system. We’re constantly getting heat energy from the sun and radiating it back out into space at an equal rate. The composition of the atmosphere (greenhouse gasses) decides what equilibrium temperature will be. So if we had big refrigerators refreezing the arctic (without creating greenhouse gasses), they would put a ton of heat into the air but it would radiate away into space just like any other heat captured by the sun, and wouldn’t really affect the earth’s average temperature.
Nice project.

As an aside, I genuinely wonder under which circumstances a CDN will be useful for a static website nowadays.
I have a static website that has been on the HN homepage a few times and got picked up by the Chrome mobile recommendations and a nginx/https with slightly tweaked configuration never had a problem handling the traffic even on the smallest DO droplet.

Edit: Thanks for these replies.
To be specific, the picture I am thinking about in particular is described in a slide titled "Local consistency points in the absence of Global Consistency" (from this talk: https://youtu.be/VYOMmwkdSig?t=1817), where it shows how each local consistency point is ideally implemented using ES/CQRS. I also agree that the tools Confluent are currently providing us with today do not make this trivial.

Edit: the other big picture Confluent quote I like is "You are not building microservices, you are building an inside-out database" (Tim Berglund, Confluent, 2018) which is a perfect answer to this other quote: "The hardest part of microservices is your data" (Christian Posta, Red Hat, 2017)

Other possible explanations:

- Intelligence is not correlated with salary

- Intelligence is negatively correlated with materialism

- Intelligent people get paid more for doing work that requires I but less for having an unpleasant job (given equal pay, would you rather be a programmer or a garbage collector?)

- Intelligence is negatively correlated with other abilities (brain areas specialized in reasoning can't be specialized in social skills, energy spent on the brain can't be spent on the immune system)

- Intelligence is negatively correlated with mental health (Less Intelligent people don't notice or understand problems more intelligent ones do – ignorance is bliss; the things that make one intelligent also make one less stable – the genes that make one less intelligent haven't died out because evolution hasn't progressed that far yet but because the brain designs intelligent people have are buggy.
Its funny that you mention specifically this related to UI code. I was thinking about it after your first comment, and basically every product that I've worked on that fit this style of development has been UI related. And indeed, most UI projects have had almost complete rewrites every 2-3 years for one reason or another.

The ones that didn't were effectively stalled projects. This makes me think that technical debt really can be thought about in a completely different way for frontend code in many cases.

The amount of migration that has completely upended political systems in the United States and Europe since 2010 or so will be a historical footnote compared to the migration we will experience due to climate change.

Forgive my pessimism but I do not think "we will be able to migrate affected people in time" barring a major transformation of our society.

The difference is the drone isn't "on" your property, so technically not "trespassing," unless it lands. Airspace (from the top of your grass on up) is controlled by the FAA and it's a federal crime to interfere with an aircraft of any type. You don't own the air, only real property.
It's also important not to let the perfect be the enemy of the good. I agree that nuclear is a requirement to stemming climate change, but I still support the GND because it represents a lot of good steps in the right direction. We can always patch up the imperfect bits later.
