They should become more formidable without merging.
You wrote a rather leading "do they think it's a great idea?" (not a neutral way to ask this) and you said this would then constitute a large culture gap. If it's not sentiment, it's at the very least irrelevant - if the implied assumption holds that Western culture broadly considers this not a great idea (and I have my doubts on that one), then clearly it's not a requirement for the thing existing as the West does make and sell equivalent toys.
What about the wikipedia solution for this: rel="nofollow" ?
WordPress has alot of filters that allow you to take over/modify just about anything including internal functions. We overrode get_posts() to use ElasticSearch instead of MySQL and added lots of caching to alot of things with Memcache.

I built a plugin which cached all of the HTML output of every WordPress page and all of the widgets in Memcache.

On top of all the server side caching, there was Akamai in front caching every page at the network level.
XMPP was not really extended by Google in any way that mattered. Their federation hardly even worked even in the beginning.

XMPP has hardly been extinguished. There are something like 8 server implementations and zillions of client implementations. With OMEMO and Let's Encrypt it has has actually undergone a sort of resurgence lately. There are 100+ public XMPP servers out there. Matrix could only hope to be so extinguished...

So I am not really sure how you could EEE Matrix even if you wanted to do so for some reason. Something like this is hard to extinguish. If the network of servers was functional before it would still be functional after some entity pulled their server. Decentralization is sort of the point here.
Badge could prevent this by making the copy and move constructors private.
Tuxera acquires mission-critical embedded flash storage leader Datalight
> This is now how smart people install software.

On the contrary, I think what Homebrew does with regards to permissions is fundamentally incorrect. /usr/local, being shared, should be owned by root, and it should require administrator permissions to install software there.
I think it stems from environmental and doomsday concerns on Earth.
Ritalin is methylphenidate, not methamphetamine (which is what is usually called "meth"). And it's an SNDRI, while by "antidepressant" most people mean SSRI (or older types like MAO inhibitors and tricyclic). Though SNDRI are also used as antidepressants, I haven't really heard about Ritalin being classified/used as such. Do you have a source for that?

I'm not trying to make an argument here, just pointing out some factual errors in case you wonder why you're being downvoted.
I agree that "language can control thought" in the sense of parent post and in the sense of the idea of Newspeak wouldn't work. In a free society, the language should naturally evolve to be able to express every important social concept, similar to how creoles form.

On the other hand, that is not to say that an authority can't use language (in the sense of diction) and linguistic censorship as a powerful vehicle to shape thought. Many examples of this exist. Here are some real-world examples

* Modern Hebrew to foster an Israeli identity.

* Sanskritization of Hindustani into an Hindu-Urdu distinction of identity.

* Heavy and active Internet censorship of diction in China to reinforce what topics are taboo for social discussion or treasonous, and remind that Big Brother is watching.
Fun.

But what am I ranking when it asks me about beavers?
I'm from the former Eastern Bloc. Not playing with a toy gun as a child is seen as weird. It's something that never happens, everyone has used a toy gun many many times and never ever thought it's wrong.
The mechanical stability of a drystone wall is amazing, but the political stability of the border it represents is very, very fragile. It won't fall over but someone might knock it down. That's the problem the Long Now clock might have solved - it's been marketed as a symbol of human persistence. People are being persuaded that it's important. We maintain our symbolic icons. That political stability is what might keep it standing for millenia, unless people forget what it means.
Really limiting their demographic though. A little thought and they could have have had all the Candy Crush kids too.

yes, there are many commercial toy robots with guns. And there are many gun toys and violent videogames etc etc.

> For instance South Africa, during its apartheid years, managed to secretly develop nuclear weapons

As I understand, “develop” is a bit generous; it was largely direct transfer from Israel.

> Another possible, if not likely scenario, is entrenched nuclear powers aiding in the development of nuclear capability of smaller allied nations

How is that not likely? Most current (and the few past) nuclear powers that aren't the US, Russia, or perhaps Israel benefited from this at some point in their programs, covertly or overtly.
This might sound a bit weird, but when I look at the employee base of protocol labs (the makers of IPFS), the most impressive employees are the business people. Multiple Harvard Business School graduates, tons of Stanford degrees. For the technical people, some are impressive, but no where near the stature of the business people. No distinguished ex-FAANG engineers, no principal engineers from notable companies, a few top STEM PHDs (Not cs), but lots of obscure developers. This isn't to dig on them, but with the kind of money that company has, and the level of technical complexity they are trying to solve...why don't they have better engineers?

EDIT: Not looking to argue about whether leetcode filters for good programmers.

EDIT 2: Self taught developers at random companies can be amazing, but for a company "evolving the web" and 300 Million in the bank, they have hired almost no nationally recognized experts, and theyre greater developer base is not made up of people with 20 years experience. But rather a bunch of developers who have been coding for 2-4 years.
> As an example, a load instruction takes a cache miss which means it cannot retire until the miss is complete. On an Haswell machine with a ROB size of 192, at most 191 additional instructions can execute while waiting for the load: at that point the ROB window is exhausted and the core stalls. This puts an upper bound on the maximum IPC of the region of 192 / 300 = 0.64.

Where does 300 come from? Is this the number of cycles for the cache miss?
But this study does not do that. What we know is that life on this planet evolved to the conditions of this planet. As the conditions of the planet changed, which they have and quite radically, so too did the life.

Life didn't evolve to breathe nitrogen, oxygen, etc which we just coincidentally had - it evolved to breathe and utilize what was already present on our planet. And this should be the assumption for all life, which means that restricting stuff because it would be inhospitable to us is completely nonsensical.

I can't agree with "unsung".

He got the Nobel Prize for his work.

His NYT obit describes him as "the plant scientist who did more than anyone else in the 20th century to teach the world to feed itself and whose work was credited with saving hundreds of millions of lives". https://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/business/energy-environme...

One of the past HN posts about him is titled 'Hero Scientist: Norman Borlaug (saved more than billion from starvation)' - see https://hn.algolia.com/?query=Norman%20Borlaug&sort=byPopula... for all posted stories.

Another, titled "Ask HN: Who are the 100 people who most changed the world?" starts with Norman Borlaug as an example.

These are all songs of praise, yes?

Xiaomi Announces Its “Mi Home”- AIoT Smart Home Initiative
Z8s can be configured >$100k. Also those have fewer usable PCIe slots. Dollar for dollar I'm not sure the HP or Dell workstations are much cheaper than the Mac Pro if at all. They seem like just a different spin on some standard Intel configurations, with build quality good but not like Apple's.
I'm having the opposite problem. I want a site I admin added back to the Wayback Machine, the previous owner of the domain got it removed. It seems really hard to get anyones attention, I've tried email and twitter...
You don't need to make them waterproof. How long do you plan to drink a soda or whatever else?

My kids are done in max 10mins and they look mostly untouched.

I left it for one hour in a hot cocoa though, and it was not intact anymore but still usable to a degree.
I generally dislike the "bottleneck" metaphor when applied to performance, because the metaphor only makes sense when the individual "parts" run in parallel. In most scenarios, each bit of code adds its own latency that is independent of the latency of other components. So every component is a "bottleneck", so-to-speak, it's just that some are bigger bottlenecks than others.

However this case is an unusual exception, because all of these hardware components described in this article do run in parallel. So the slowest element does truly gate the throughput of all stages of the pipeline. You could add more load to the non-bottlenecked resources and the overall latency of the pipeline wouldn't change at all, roughly speaking.
Really good site, has loads of good API's to use
This looks awesome!! Well done!!
Why do you think they would not get bored? Also, what do you think about the price?
It's not only America, it's all around the world.

Because income inequality has exploded, the middle class is now nonexistent.

So there are now only the rich who don't have to deal with the problems of the poor, and the poor who are both too busy struggling to survive and too poor to lobby to enact change.

Eventually the guillotines will arrive but for now it's just bad public toilets.

Facebook launches 'Study' app that pays users for data
> Who is going to defend the free internet agains Azure, AWS and Google Cloud?

This is exactly what the http://metacurrency.org project aims to bring to life:
http://holo.host/learn/ and http://ceptr.org

The distributed pattern they have created combines Git local source chains with cryptographic signing and BitTorrent’s DHT to create easily evolvable apps using http://holochain.org. Peer validation enforces rules defined in the logic of each app. Apps run locally instead of on a corporate server. If the current tech ecosystem is Platform Capitalism, then this pattern is Protocol Cooperativism.

I haven’t come across anything like this.

Flash level checksums are an integral part of wear-leveling and flash block allocation strategy. So they are also used for block migration/retirement controls. In other words, it's not trivial or desirable to remove flash level ECC or other checksums from physical flash management layer.

I cannot find the article now, but the flash storage is way less reliable than it seems and it's correcting bit errors silently without reporting most of the time.

This article [0] shows some of the things behind the curtain in flash storage configuration and lifetime. I'd edit or add the other article if I can find it.

Looking in activities.py, I see a some functions that are OS-agnostic, but also a ton of functions that are Windows-specific in terms of process names and paths, and directly referencing the win32 lib. It's a matter of "unsupported" meaning "impossible" rather than "you're on your own". That said, the code is pretty easy to read, and would make for a good starting point to make your own automation library.
I'd like to interject a question here. I'm not a front-end dev, but when I hear other front-end devs talk about stuff... several notables folks have talked about not chasing all the frameworks, because they're like fads, and you can get burned if $COMPANY or $TEAM stops maintaining them.

Is following the newest shiny framework really the best path to being a pro, or is it having a mastery of fundamentals?

Ask HN: How to learn tech as a company executive?
A friend of mine is taking an executive leadership role at a tech company.

My last car was 20 years old when I sold it. It's probably still rolling somewhere in Africa.

I would never buy a car if I expected it to last for only 6 years..
Actually, I can think of some things:
1. Manufacturing heavy equipment will be much cheaper due to low gravity and prevalence of iron. Plus shipping it to Earth will still be relatively affordable because you're only escaping Mar's gravity.

2. It'd be a great testing/research site for wild science experiments like artificial creatures and stuff that would go very badly if not contained on Earth.

It's not at all expensive for what it is. It's just far higher specs than most here would find useful, which is the real disconnect.

A smile comes on my face whenver I seen IPFS on HN...

The author could have gone an step further and used ENS. IPFS+ENS is becoming a common duo. Web browsers can't do ipfs:// but they can do https://insertipfsgateway/ipfs/Qm...
With ENS (.eth) domains can resolve to ipfs:// and Metamask picks those up and turns them into gateway links.

There's a list of .eth domains & other ENS+IPFS info here:

Is there a way to host these somewhere easily?

Like a git push of a notebook to a repo and you get voila powered renders (and I assume some kind of automagic lightweight kernel behind the scenes which executes the code if required).

It reminds me of DeepNote[0] though that is geared towards the producers of notebooks rather than consumers.

RChilli's Resume Parsing – Provides Great Candidate Experience
>Additionally it will be terrible from a usability and accessibility standpoint.

ReCaptcha is by definition terrible from a usability and accessibility standpoint too, just has all the privacy problems too.
The $500 MRR is an interesting selling point, for sure.

See yourself as a product you must sell to a new client, your future company.
The client is made of:
- A future manager
- Future colleagues
- HR / Upper management

Each part of the client has its own set of requirement. Getting the interview depends mostly on selling the resume: make professional accomplishment clear, show that you understand what's happening around you and focus on problems and their solution.

1) I would definitely consider you for an interview, but with a strong bias against you: I, like many others, have a formal education and believe it helped me. I also hired exotic profiles and got bitten. The fact you have a product up and running is the only reason why I'd pay to see you.

2) Vanilla or not, what I would want to see in frontend code is clarity and team-orientation. If your code can be worked on by a team, and is clear and well done, that'd be more impressive than an angular spaghetti. I would ask you your opinion and try to determine if you can scale to team work, big project and deadlines. Your profile is usually understood to be able to accept ungrateful work happily while learning, and become senior in a 5-year horizon at best. You'll be expected to be humble unless you can demonstrate exceptional insight about programming.

3) I would refuse to see you immediately if I heard about you wanting to slack while we pay you to learn, and I would strongly signal during an interview that not only this is not possible even for the CEO, but that wanting it while you have so much work to do just to be on par with the team that will have to support you for a few years is disrespectful.

The top rule I try to apply when recruiting, is : is that guy better than me. If yes, hired.
