But most stuff at Maker Faire and in the Maker scene in general is in a quite unfinished state. It's easy to get inspired by all the Arduino stuff because it's there. But what about the move advanced things? Of course you could meet some people at Makerfaire who did this kind of stuff, but that was rare. I wish they would have had a clearer concept for that.
He’s not complaining about the price tag not matching the online price. He’s complaining about the cashier applying the tag price and not the lower price advertised online. I also find it confusing when retailers apply different prices online and at physical stores, unless the fact that the online price is different is very clearly stated.

I once broke into a restaurant and put out a fire which would have gone critical before the firefighters arrived. Towels and dishrags. By the time they did, it was out. Likewise once when my car caught fire in the engine room. Buckets of water from the cleaner in the adjacent supermarket.

You often do stand a chance if you keep your wits, assess the situation, and act sensibly without any delay. I know everything is easy from my armchair, but can't help noticing how in the grassfire video nobody seems to be doing anything worthwhile while the thing is still manageable. In that kind of dry grass, jackets should have come off and smothered the fire within the first seconds, no panic and no danger.

Sure, everybody has 'rights' but if I were to come across a workplace in my country where programmers were using much of our native language in the code I would consider it a red flag and I would expect to find amateurish practices in other places as well. The thing is that English is the lingua franca of programming and that ASCII is the lingua franca of source files. The highest quality manual that you are going to find is in English and stack overflow will answer your questions in English. Also, various tools are going to respond to non-ASCII characters in various ways which may not always be the most pleasant. You are bound to get yourself some problems that you would not have gotten otherwise.

Like so many - probably nearly all - issues picked up by the current tide of 'progressive' political factions the issue has been turned into a black-and-white, with-us-or-against-us, quasi-religious mantra. The slightest deviation from the current narrative is enough to be labelled a 'climate (change) denier'. Questioning the accuracy and efficacy of the IPCC climate model (which normally is an essential part of meteorological model development and maintenance as it leads to better predictions) is seen as blasphemy and can leads to professional banishment. This then leads those who want to voice criticism towards channels which host voices on the other side of the spectrum since those are the only channels which are willing - nay, 'eager' is a better term - to let those voices be heard.

In short, the issue has been polarised in such a way that the more extreme voices on either side are more and more setting the tone for the debate. Extremism is hardly ever the best approach to reach the silent majority.

We have another picture here. Putin is not dictator as Hitler or Saddam Hussein. He just does what most people (not all of them smart) in Russia expect from him. We say that collapse of USSR is a catastrophe not because empire fell apart. It was "catastrophe" because we had the contry where all worked fine (culture, law, technology, aducation ect.) and than it suddenly dissapered complettely and turned to just crowd of criminals and stupid savages on the ruins of USSR. And the country was no longer able to stand up. Democracy did not work and the attempt to restore the authoritarianism did not work either. Nothing works anymore and no one understands why. Yesterday we were a people who can do everything, today we are a people who can not do anything.

This article is riddled with factual errors. This one paragraph has several:

"In November, records show he used it (his CCW) to purchase a handgun and an M&P 15 assault-style rifle.

On December 19 he used it to buy another assault rifle.

On December 21 he purchased a .40 caliber handgun.

On Jan. 9, 2017, he bought another assault-style rifle..."

A CCW permit has nothing whatsoever to do with the process of purchasing any rifle or shotgun. (The same error is repeated regarding shotgun purchases later in the article.) It is never legal to conceal a rifle or shotgun, even if one has a CCW license.

Similarly, the Brady law affected handguns only. And it passed in 1993, not 1994 as the article claimed.

People have found issues with Harari and Kahneman too. That's okay. But who else are you going to read to get a sense of these subjects?

People attacked Faraday for suggesting electromagnetism was a thing, hardly paid attention to Maxwell for doing the Math because it was too complicated, and attacked Oliver Heaviside his whole life, for simplifying the math that everyone uses today. Each of these characters made mistakes and had weaknesses too and its easy to find fault.

That's the way things work. There are always going to be more people who fixate/react to mistakes, than use them as stepping stones to new discoveries.

Without these writers I would have hardly any awareness about these subjects, because these subjects were hardly discussed when I was in school. And it's not even that long ago. They opened the door. History will show that was the role they played.

I found your site confusing, maybe you should fix these to avoid other people getting confused and walking off:

1. You mention pricing tiers, but clicking compare says why you are better than your competitor. Maybe have a pricing link on the home page?

2. Styling differences between docs and the landing page. The docs look better styled.

3. There is another style for the compare page, which makes the background go semi-white. I confused this for a popup when I saw it (might just be me!) but again why have a 3rd site style?

I think a classic Bootstrap or a Material Design website which puts the menus in expected places etc. would work better. It's crucial for me as a prospect to be able to find stuff. Even on a bad design site I can look at the top for "Pricing" and go from there.

" Apple logos on the screen were painted over, and wouldn’t be visible anyway to anyone who used a repaired iPhone "

This is true but it is still a choice. In my spare time coq project I use ascii exclusively in my source files. Same thing for my PhD thesis in theoretical physics that was in LaTeX.
> most files are nowhere near 10 levels deep, let alone hundreds of levels.

Filesystem (and low-level in general) stuff must consider worst cases. There is a lot of software out there doing weird things. For instance, npm created a very deep folder hierarchy for a long time (so deep it messed up some path length restrictions in fact).

One way or another the worst case is going to be hit. And then what? The entire computer grinds to a halt? How is the user supposed to discover why?

> We can amortize the cost by updating the parent folder sizes only when the file size is changed by a significant amount since last update (say, 10%).

So you have a log file inside a folder. Because it just keeps growing line by line then the folder's size is never updated. Now you have many Gb's of log file in that folder, and the folder says it is using "4Kbytes".

Moreover, this propagates upwards the filesystem. In the end, your root drive has a "folder size" of X but its actual usage is Y >> X. How is that not going to confuse everyone?

Put in another way, who is going to trust the X number ever? Why would you pay all that accounting penalty for every write to every file to end up with a half-asset broken-by-design feature?

> Also I don't see how drives and hard linked files are any different than regular files in this context.

They are different in that they exist in multiple folders at the same time (so they would trigger multiple size-updating branches).
I don't know what any of you are talking about. You are taking my observations and making wildly incorrect assumptions about my motivations.

What I do want to know is that I can exclude throw-away Google/FB/Apple accounts made five minutes ago specifically to establish a new whitewashed identity on my site.

It's only "super sensitive" to the initial state if you take a very narrow view of what the possible states are. You can start at any point in an infinite Cartesian space and, after enough time has passed for you to reach the small orbital area, you'll stay there forever.

Viewed in those terms, not only can you make accurate predictions about the future, but there are sharp bounds on the maximum error those predictions can have.

Imagine rolling a bowling ball over an x,y plane with iron rods of positive radius fixed at all the points with integer coordinates. The ball bounces off rods as it hits them in much the same way a real bowling ball would if you rolled it into a stop sign post.

Where's that ball going to end up after you roll it in a given direction? Compared to that, a Lorentz system is a model of easy predictability. When you want the particle, you know exactly where to look. The bowling ball could be _anywhere_. The Lorentz particle is guaranteed to be in its orbital, because, unlike the bowling ball system, the Lorentz system is extremely insensitive to initial conditions -- if you view the problem that way.

I really don't want this to come across as rude, but consider this.

Your comment is pretty extreme capitalism apologia. You don't have to be a complete socialist to reasonably consider the idea that maybe a private individual being able to use their power to seize any land they want, points to some major problems in the current social system you have.

I don't want this necessarily to get super political though, so if I've stepped over a line feel free to vote me down into oblivion :)

I just think stories like this are interesting because if you put down your ideaologies and look at the situation you realize nobody is right, but there's some obvious policy changes that are necessary.
I don't understand how charging "in the low $2000s" for "130- to 220-square-foot bedroom and share a communal kitchen and living space" in downtown San Jose is a bargain.

Anti-Semitism was pretty common in a lot of places at the time (it still is in some circles, you may note), and the whole idea of eugenics was kind of an "in" thing in much of the scientific community at the time, too. It wasn't until Hitler came along and started implementing this stuff in a big and brutal way that the tide of opinion turned.
I think sites like this should be banned on HN just like malware and spam. If you want to link to them you’d need to find an alternative, non-nasty source.
As soon as you form something that should conform to the type (according to its name) and find that it doesn't, you notice the problem, and then you fix it once and for all (because the type is defined in one place). So yes, you can have misleading type names in the codebase, but there's a natural pressure to correct them, in a way that there largely isn't for misleading comments.
> Reminds me of a student design with what you get by just following design equations and going for a crazy mission profile.

This is the only thing that makes sense about this design. It's the result of optimizing some parameter at the expense of all others. Maybe the maths makes sense but it looks ugly and I've never seen an ugly machine that worked well.
Disclaimer: CTO of Hacker Lab but speaking for myself here:

We've had more than a few Tech Shop refugees over the past few months/years. Noisebridge is great, and both of our spaces definitely have unique feels and great communities built around them.

I wandered into the space some 5 years ago and what stood out to me echos what above commenters have said - there is a definite air of don't-buy-what-you-can-build or repair within the maker sphere that spoke to me.

While there are plenty of edu institutions and private industry shops out there that have all the equipment we do and more, the community here of folks from different experience levels, background, etc. really makes makerspaces unique.

When Hacker Lab showed up there were only a small handful of coworking spaces in the area. 7 years later, I can't throw a stick without hitting one. I feel part of our survival has been going for breadth - coworking, hackathons, and makeing can all benefit from eachother.

That said, I'm as anxious and unknowing to see where this maker thing goes as the next person.

In Germany we have a German edition of Make:, which is done by Heise Verlag (of c't fame), and they seem to be doing fine (and there is no VC involved). It seems they have licensed the trademark (it was called "c't hardware hacks" before) but operations are done through the Maker Media GmbH. They also organize Maker Faires all over Germany, so I guess it is possible to do this and make a profit, at least in Germany.

Yeah, I was surprised to find out that anyone submitting a legitimate bid at least %5 higher than the winning bid basically overrides the result of the already closed auction [0] . Which makes me wonder what's the purpose of an auction if you can revisit it after the fact.

Perhaps it's because you need to invest so much more time to make something useful in hardware. In software it's still possible to make small useful projects.

I don't work at Valve.

You're missing my point. I didn't say we don't need artists. I'm saying you shouldn't have artists taking leading roles in the fields that aren't artistic.

Perhaps you're doing a bit too much goalposting to make your argument? Ignoring all the groundbreaking titles (in any company). The other groundbreaking title that was released by Valve was of course Steam. The first app store.

What makes Valve so great is that they're exactly not doing the same old thing they were doing. They reinvent and innovate. That's what makes it a great company. One of the best imho.

Do you hear any complaints coming from Valve? Seems to me they're happy with the direction they chose.

They don't have a problem.

There is no equivocation fallacy here at all. You have also failed to understand anything I’ve said. I’ve made no claims whatsoever about the likelihood of anything being true, not even any claims about the likelihood of anything being false. I’ve only asserted that it is impossible to prove any absolute truth. It seems you have taken this as some sort of insult to the merit of some truth that you must believe. Which I find highly ironic given the topic of this thread is the virtue of intellectual humility.
Not out of the box, but blocking all yahoo.com content does indeed get rid of it.
Android gives both the user as well as the developer more freedom to do as they see fit. This can lead to abuse or just sloppy programming which drains power. It can also lead to devices running for a week on a single charge, running only such software as the user has chosen and not reporting any spurious data to the likes of Apple and Google. I've seen examples of both scenarios and have been using Android devices in the latter category for about 8 years now.

Freedom comes with responsibility,, a burden which is not for everyone to carry. Those who cannot or do not want to carry it have to trust someone else - Apple, Google, Huawei, Samsung, Nokia, etc - to carry it. Those who can and are willing to do so have the opportunity to tailor Android to their own needs. I'm in the latter category and would not trade places with the former.
Sure, you could consider it unprofessional, but I'd wager that the large majority of all professional programming is done in languages other than English. The tooling issue is an "is vs. ought" problem. In 2019 full UTF-8 compatibility is not a feature anymore; on the contrary, a lack of support is a bug.

So this uses an evolutionary algorithm to learn Brainfuck programs that output strings, taking advantage of the simple set of

Pairing Brainfuck with evolutionary algorithms is a very nice idea, for sure.
But, the algorithm they show takes half an hour to learn a program that
outputs the word "HI".

That's just mad. Half an hour for two measly letters? Why is that thing so slow?
