I find UUIDs very useful for this reason - the IDs can be generated by different parts ofba distributed system, and be "guaranteed" to be unique.

In this kind of system you can also generate deterministic UUIDs, which are useful for idempotency (e.g. The same event can be recognised as a duplicate)
I've met many people that romanticise the role of executives as those burdening an incredible responsibility and therefore are compensated as such.

But this is one of the first times where I see there's some potential consequence to negative or destruction actions conducted.

I honestly find MS Word extremely difficult to use. Like, I'm always fighting against the incorrect assumptions it's doing on my text, and against an unknown amount of invisible state that changes my formatting as I type.

Quantometrica and EDGEof to Develop Russian-Japanesestartup Ecosystem
On May, 24th International startup studio Quantometrica and the global incubation hub of Tokyo EDGEof Inc. signed an agreement on strategic partnership aimed at development of the Russian-Japanese startup ecosystem. The agreement implies joint acceleration and relocation of portfolio startups to the markets of both countries. The parties will jointly evaluate perspectives of various startups for Russian, CIS and Japanese markets, provide consulting services, implement acceleration and relocation programs for selected startups and assist in attracting investment into promising areas of business. The partnership between Quantometrica and EDGEof Inc. is expected to contribute to strengthening Russian-Japanese cooperation in field of small and medium-sized businesses.

Co-founder and CEO of EDGEof Inc., Taisuke Alex Odajima stressed that Quantometrica will be the first strategic partner of EDGEof Inc. in Russia and CIS region. "EDGEof Inc. global affiliate network already includes startup studios in US, France, Austria, South-Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia and Singapore. I am very pleased that by signing this agreement with Quantometrica we now discover for ourselves such a big segment of the global market as Russia and CIS", - said Mr. Odajima.

Quantometrica's co-founder and partner Konstantin Velikotsky noted that partnership with EDGEof Inc. is a strategically important step for Quantometrica: "We develop only those projects that have high potential of scaling to international markets. These are, first of all, SaaS-products and technological solutions in field of IT. In this regard, it is extremely important for us to have promising and reliable partners in foreign markets, and EDGEof Inc. is of course one of them. I am sure that our partnership will be highly effective and will allow us not only develop our own portfolio start-ups but also strengthen the ties of Russia and Japan in field of private entrepreneurship".
One thing we all can agree is that America is run by idiots now. Even if they tackle legitimate issues they do it in a way that is stupid.

International trade agreements can be renegotiated and confrontations can be managed professionally. The US would get much more done if it would have sane leadership.
Sure, security is about taking a layered approach - I don't think anyone would seriously advocate using knowledge of a UUID as enough authorisation on it's own. Well, I hope not :)

So people will do that, but why would I just not sit out and keep stocks like my Berkshire or SP500 ETFs during it? Why would I just not double down and wait a few more years during those dips? Or am I not expected to do that because I bought it in Robinhood as opposed to having bought it in E-trade?

Having worked with hundreds of companies on their OKRs at Weekdone, I've seen many hack OKRs on individual level and use them "wrong" by having the KRs as milestones, tasks and projects. Yes, absolutely illegal by some leading OKR consultants and thinkers. But works like magic to keep goals in front of people.

Having the choice of having a developer or designer a visionary KR of improving x or y by z% vs getting a project, milestone or task done, in many cases the latter keeps them focused vs them rolling their ideas on the % KR.
It’s comparable, and in some ways superior as a general control protocol, to Modbus. Can’t recall the specifics but MIDI seemed better defined and generally saner (IMHO).

A good example of non-music MIDI is Firmata; it’s a protocol based on MIDI and allows remote control of Arduino and other MCUs [1]. Seems both modbus and midi have transports over Ethernet now as well.

Sorry for my bold point but, most of the time I feel that saying hi to someone in the street has more impact on me than having long convos on reddit. There's something to physical proximity that is missing from the web (obviously) and people trying to make it a full replacement are somehow lying.
Actually, that could still work:

init.sh@..

The problem I see is this makes it hard to have domain-specific or optional address interpretation. Eg "foo.png=FILE?get@example.com[http]" or... something to that effect.
Dry Carpet Cleaning vs. Steam Cleaning Methods
Given that they already have those specs for the 'licensed' modes, it's irrelevant, unless the SD assoc. is going to release a new version of the SD standard specifically just to ensure huawei don't have the spec for it, and then make all other SD licensees force using this upgrade; all to validate trump's trade war.

Such a move would very likely backfire on the US.

I guess not so many people here have direct experience of the world before the end of the USSR and the cold war. Basically there was very little exchange of goods between the two blocks and their two leader countries made constantly clear that they had thousands of nuclear weapons pointed to all the countries in the other block and were ready to wipe them out if they were attacked [1]

The level of confrontation now is nowhere close to that but that has been the usual state of the world for a longer time than the current open and free Internet and commerce. If we are heading into that direction (if!) all the major players (USA, China, Russia) will build some walls again and pull the strings of their allies. It's both a defensive strategy and an offensive one and it's going to reduce the flow of goods, people and information. Technology stacks will be rewritten and operated locally as barriers are raised. Factories will have to be rebuilt in the west. I wonder if the EU can survive being pulled in three different ways or each country will go its way toward the party that suits them best.

We can look at the 1946-1989 cold war as an experiment to predict how this is going to play out. The winner was who was able to create more wealth for the people in its block. Nuclear weapons were (and are) a strong enough deterrent to make a real full scale war impossible. Be prepared to hear more about them in the next years. However there were many wars fought by proxy, or against proxies.

Tangentially, you might be interested in learning about the origin of the words First, Second and Third World [2], which somewhat changed in meaning since their origin in 1952. They where USA + allies, USSR + allies, all the others. They were not about being rich or poor. Maybe we'll end up with more than three worlds this time or (I hope) business as usual.

As a concrete example here you should be able to translate a new queueing system into something that has business impact.

Maybe the new system requires 75% of the servers the previous one did, leading to increased revenue. Maybe it’s quicker, resulting in customers experiencing better service, and so churn is reduced from the pool of people who said “I like it, but it’s too slow”.

A queueing system in itself isn’t of any value to the business as a whole.

This is about a study published last year in April in Chronobiology International: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/07420528.2018.1...

News sites have picked it up and produced headlines on the same study with the complete opposite sentiment: https://news.sky.com/story/nocturnal-night-owls-risk-early-d...

My understanding is from the article that night owls are not doomed to die early in the literal sense, but not being able to work, eat and exercise in the "proper time" still makes them susceptible to diabetes, neurological, respiratory and cardiovascular problems, etc.

So yeah, still doomed.

I don't disagree. There is something in meatspace interactions that isn't captured on the Internet. Probably even multiple small somethings that add up to a different quality. And while I feel my social media activity currently brings in more value than most of the meatspace conversations, I would really like to have these kinds of conversations I have on HN in a bar, face to face.
> Even on WiFi it is useful although latency is very jittery.

Could you elaborate on why Wifi latency jitter would be an issue for MIDI?

From an outsider's perspective and with only a vague knowledge of MIDI, it doesn't seem to be something that should be any more sensitive to latency jitter than other realtime applications like audio/video.
Well, everyone else involved in drafting the TPP is still in it. So China's Asian neighbors must see some value in it. Only the US dropped out.
heh yeah, numerology doesn't make much sense when applied to measurement units generally. That hasn't stopped it being applied anyway. For someone already prone to this sort of thinking, they're looking at the number, without thinking about how the measurement base was derived.

Thankfully, this article isn't so much about debunking the exact myth, but rather the notion that the standard has any particular historical significance. It is interesting to think that it wasn't until recently we have even been able to reasonably measure and standardise frequency.
I find Clojure refreshing, but it has too many agendas for me and Java is just (a) no Go. I tried, I did. And launching the repl felt like watching grass grow on my latest/greatest macbook. And if I'm going to use a Lisp in Go, I definitely prefer one designed around Go to one imported from Java.

The Clojure-code I've written, while terse; always feels too far off from what I want to say. I have the same issues with Haskell, too much hoop jumping to take part in someone else's quest for purity.

There's plenty I like in there and Rich is a very disciplined thinker. The languages have much in common. g-fu's way of using environments looks a lot like Clojures use of maps if you squint.

Transducers are brilliant, it's difficult for me to believe it took this long. Which is why g-fu uses [0] them as the foundation for all sequence transformations.

Sourcetrail dev here. Thanks for your extensive feedback!

A lot of things have changed since Sourcetrail was called Coati (about 2 years ago). We put a lot of work into improving indexing speed, handling multiple configurations/different languages within one project and reducing "sluggishness" in the UI. Sourcetrail runs now smoothly on code bases with multiple MLoC.

But I agree with your suggestion regarding data-flow analysis. That is what understanding unfamiliar source code often really comes down to. We also had some user requests to go that direction. We never really looked into this area so far, because it is a lot harder to collect the data (dynamic analysis) and it needs a whole new user interface.

While the data collection is solvable (Visual Studio debugger can do it, I think), I'm not sure whether it is really possible to come up with an effective user interface that shows which paths the different values take.

To explain why this is hard, let me use a metaphor: With data-flow you need to deal with a new dimension: time. Sourcetrail can handle dependencies between definitions really well, before the code is executed: space. What you want is a tool that combines the two into a space-time exploration tool of source code. Not sure if possible at all, but very interesting to think about. :)

I'm on it, giffgaff, won't go back to contracts now. It's 3gb data on the £10 one, although I never use it as all the updates and downloads happen on wifi. I used to sometimes get near the limit when I would use it to stream music on google play. I was on the £12 (4gb) for a while, it's really easy to switch whenever you want.

It's much cheaper to buy a phone outright and get a giffgaff sim. I was buying Nexuses, but the pixel seemed a ripoff so I haven't upgraded yet. And to be honest I'm not really seeing poor performance yet on the Nexus 5x. I had been thinking about a oneplus, but I see they've released a cheaper pixel now.

Perhaps for non technical reasons.
My 2 cents. I'm 35, and I've been coding since I was 7. Straight out of college I got a nice job as a team lead, in a year a VP, in another 2 years a CTO in 300+ fast growing SME. I quit, moved to another country, and founded my own e-commerce company, in 3 years we hit $10mm in revenue. It felt great, the world was my oyster.

Then a financial crisis hit, my partners duped me and sold the business, I was left out with barely enough money to survive (and learned to value a properly drafted shareholders' agreement). I got divorced, my life was in shambles. No savings, no friends. But... it gave me some perspective on what do I want to do next. I decided that my next business will bring a real tangible difference to peoples' lives.

I founded another company, burned through what was left of my savings, but it was a failure - some new regulations came out and made the business practically impossible.

We pivoted, another failure (late to market). We pivoted again, basically running on fumes, and another failure (no market fit, was so obvious looking back).

We pivoted again, and this time we've just launched and people love it. I'm very optimistic and hope to raise a bit of capital soon to move forward.

All in all, I don't have any money, but I wouldn't change anything in my life. It was a great ride, and I enjoyed it. Every failure was a precious learning opportunity.

A company called Rovio made 50 games. You know any of them? They were all failures. They decided to go all-in and made a 51st game, named Angry Birds.

In Europe, universities are free. Poor people get housing, money for food, etc. if you go to school.

I studied in the States and some people at my college were being paid $700/mo. on top of dorms if they took at least a handful of classes.

If poverty is inherited it's because of a negative culture and worldview is passed down, not because of money.
It's France, there isn't the culture of switching jobs all the time.

As consequence very few people hire for these positions as well.
Classic Mac OS allowed filenames to contain every character except the directory-delimiter, ":".

When Mac OS X came around, it included a POSIX API and kernel (so applications expect to be able to use ":" in filenames), but used the same filesystem as Classic Mac OS which didn't allow ":" but did allow the POSIX directory separator "/", which POSIX apps wouldn't try to use in a filename. And so at some layer they were switched around - if you try to create a filename with "/" in the GUI, it's presented as ":" to POSIX; if a POSIX app creates a filename with ":" it shows up as "/" in the GUI.
> why is the SD Association an American entity

Short answer: because SanDisk were/are an american corporation, and were the most influential part of the trio in the early days.
Indeed -- I think it's clear dataflow's main issue is with the font rendering. The image shows subpixel antialiasing on the PDF version, and not on the DVI, so naturally they look quite different.

But that's nothing to do with DVI itself; it's entirely the responsibility of the renderer.

Korean here, people don’t like the countries itself, (we literally hate Japan), but doesn’t have much feelings to companies or usual people. (We buy Sony products, talk with Japanese people, study in Japan or work in Japan companies...etc)
Similar with China. It’s something different... and I’m pretty sure if there is a reason the 3 companies (but I’m not sure if Sony has a significant mindshare in the Android market... isn’t Japan’s phone market Apple + Samsung + < 10%?̊̈) make an Android-compatible OS, they would, and we also would use it.
That's not true; they're at least going to be ring-fenced and there's no evidence yet that they will be allowed to supply 5G at all. All the UK has said is that they believe the risks can be managed for some equipment.
That's all true. But the tariffs China places on US agricultural products aren't a tax on US consumers, and don't produce revenue for the US.

So American farmers are losing export sales due to Chinese tariffs, the sting of which Trump is trying to reduce by paying the farmers. Those payments probably aren't funded by tariff revenue collected by the US. So they'll probably be paid for through borrowing. Which may mean borrowing from China.

In broad terms, performing music is much more sensitive to latency than A/V playback is.

Think of it like playback vs a phone call. If you have 0.5s gap between audio and video, you hardly notice. But the same latency in a phone call makes it very awkward.

In music performance, the awkwardness would be multiplied by the number of spectators cringeing :)
Im a car factory, workers who make cars provide value, but management who keep the company afloat, owners who take all the risk, etc. provide an even greater value.
