Mastertapes contain the music precisely as recorded by the artist themselves. They're not meant to be listened to or consumed actively -- they're there to serve as indelible recordings and references. Scholarly work on Jazz, for example, relies extensively on the existence of master tapes. Here's why:

When you record music to a multitrack magnetic tape like most of the recordings in this vault, you then get the ability during playback, for example, to fade individual tracks in and out. This would allow you to, e.g. isolate the sound of just McCoy Tyner's piano track on a classic Coltrane recording. Hearing his playing on it's own, without the rest of the band, could allow a music researcher to hear notes and sounds that might be masked by the final product recording, which flattens the recording.

One way of understanding this issue, which might appeal to the HN audience, is this: The process of "flattening" tracks to make the final sound recordings that we end up hearing as consumers is a lossy form of compression, even if the sound file format you consume it in is described as "lossless."
If you spend some time, I bet you can think of lots of reasons a creature might return to the same place. Many humans engage in self defeating behavior, should they be made into dog food, or should we empathise with them?

In this case, I let them know that Google was using their position as the market-dominant browser company to make it more difficult for consumers to use alternative browsers by making captchas much harder to use on alternative browsers. I explained what a captcha was and how it affected me as a consumer using Firefox.
50 years from now the problem will be that we have preserved digital masters in the form of session files for various DAWs and it will no longer be possible to patch together the correct hardware, OS, plugins, and virtual instruments to recreate the session. Artists and producers are encouraged to create stems or bounces of all the individual tracks for the purposes of long term preservation, but this does not always happen.

In the 80s a pundit predicted that in the future the interface to spreadsheets would be a games controller, because that's what the kids were growing up with and would want to use when they grew up.

>Surprising that Amazon didn't go that way.

Maybe customers can over look Amazon workers not getting bathroom breaks and being forced to urinate in plastic jugs so they can get their online orders next day...but customers might not overlook those working conditions when they find out the people handling their food are urinating in the kitchen because they don’t get bathroom breaks.

Not to mention the stories of 100 degree warehouses so amazon can save on electricity, I wouldn’t put it past them to not keep food as cold as it should be to save a few bucks.
In many high cost of living markets rent for a modest apartment is much cheaper than the cost of a mortgage on even the smallest house you can find.

For example, you can rent an apartment on the peninsula in the Bay Area for less than $3,000 a month, but buying the smallest house you can find on the peninsula will cost you at least $4,500 a month for just the mortgage.

If you rent in this case you can take the $1,500 in savings (plus the savings from no property tax, maintenance, homeowners insurance, etc.), and save/invest it.
We're using it when compiling our code, but our software deliveries are bundled with the amazon Corretto (because we already have a contract with Amazon because of AWS, so getting security updates shouldn't be an issue) and our installer offer the option to use another JRE, so our clients can use any JRE 11; but for Oracle 11 JRE, they'll have to pay Oracle themselves.

To answer the OP, we didn't rewrite anything, just switched to a no-cost JRE. And since we did it at the same time of the Java 8 -> 11 switch, there were no extra dev costs.
Assuming whatever you're trying to do is a good idea, my method is to just write a "heads-up"-type message and just go for it.

For example, "I'm going to do foo. If anyone has any concerns or anything, please let me know". This covers your ass, provides a discussion/feedback area, and lets you actually get things done without a lengthy bike-shedding process.

One important lesson I have learned in my career is that fortune favors the bold.

Can't speak for National Parks in the US, but in Canada they're quite well protected. Sure, Banff, Jasper and attractions along the highway are built up (it's kind of the point; have easily accessible attractions which bring in revenue to pay for real conservation).

But once you get into the backcountry, its pristine wilderness, with a good number of wild animals. We've certainly been more successful at protecting bears, wolves, mountain lions and numerous prey animals, than any other country on earth.

Yes, it painful for me to look at animals in narrow cages where they slowly go mad whith monotony.
(next - by the Thanos voice) But in general I can't understand the logic. In the wild, the animal has hard life. It will sooner or later be injured, sick, starving, and even eaten alive. But these sufferings are considered as normal because they are "natural". In the well-maintained zoo, the animals eat, sleep, and a bit bored, but this sufferings are considered as unacceptable.
For billions of years, animals suffered for a reason: it was evolution. Now biological evolution is complete because it is displaced by the evolution of civilization. Why do animals have to suffer in wild nature now? It may happen that our descendants will look at humanism towards animals completely different: allowing animals to live in the wild will be considered a crime (like living children unattended).

NYT, the most prolific poster on HN, caught out again, like every month it seems. Yet they still rule the front page. When will people stand up to bad journalalism being pushed on them?
Raw materials aren't the reason restaurant food is expensive, the biggest cost of running a commercial kitchen is labor. And that is even after considering that kitchen staff are often low-wage positions. How, exactly, will this save money? Sure, you don't have to pay waitstaff the ludicrously low rate of ~1.25/hour, but the delivery drivers need paid and the app will take its middleman cut of the profits.

And have you ever eaten hospital food or other cafeteria e? That is the quality to expect from a industrial scale kitchen. Delivery is convenient, but nothing about this business is very revolutionary, and I certainly don't see the restaurant industry being 'disrupted' anytime soon.

I think the idea is to also abstract away the choice of elements in favor of familiar container names. Make it only class names and you're back to a simple CSS framework like tons of others already.
As noted in the original comment, currently DoDSR can only be used for nominative sampling aka you have a name and want a known generic sample (and you have a federal or military judge allowing it). The limitations of the medium / storage means it can't practically be used beyond that.

I think that National Parks are necessary AND I think that wild, untamed and unexploited spaces are also necessary. The tradeoffs for building parks are challenging, but there is some logic behind them.

I also think you need "parkland" at all levels. here in Canada's GTA, we have areas managed by the the Toronto Recreation and Conservation Authority, and they try their best to preserve nature while managing access.

I belong to several MTB clubs that work with them, and they to put guardrails in place. We can't dig trails without studying the effect on the habitat first, trails are regularly closed for regeneration, they prohibit night riding to protect nocturnal behaviour, &c.
While I'm very much in favour of reminding everyone of Tyranny of Structurelessness and shadow hierarchies, the article is referring to a more IETF-like situation of voluntary collaboration. Here there are other sorts of shadow hierachy:

- Postel decentralisation: it used to be the case that a lot of important internet functionality was run through one person. Less so these days, but there will still be critical individuals.

- Fait accompli. This is really apparent in browsers, where the W3C inevitably lags actual practice and features tend to be introduced by deploying first and standardising later.
Ask HN: What are recommended sites offering Web/Mobile development courses?
We are currently looking for learning sites offering Web/Backend (PHP, AWS, etc.) and Mobile (React Native/Android/iOS) development courses. We are currently considering these sites:

- Pluralsight
- Udemy
- Coursera

Mainly, we are looking for cost-effective, quality offerings. The ones where we can get the most out of. It would be nice if anyone can share their experiences with these sites or other sites you may know.

Not using math mode (along with improper font setup) here also uses a different font for digits in the header and the body, which looks a bit weird.
There are very clear hierarchies in Congress (Speaker/Majority Leader, Majority Whip, Committee Chairs) and White House (President, Vice President, Cabinet). There is no power structure in SCOTUS: each of the justices is equal and has nobody to answer to.

There are likely shadow organizations in the Congress and White House with their own (unpublished) hierarchy, but probably not in the SCOTUS due to its size and the implicit potency inherent in being a Justice.

your expectation of privacy is sort of inconsistent here. if you don't have an expectation of privacy when your out in the world, and it's fair game for people to observe you traveling to your friend's house, how can you expect that your presence is private?
> It's going to be a less secure system for casual users, but it'll allow power-users to more easily (you can do that on Android as well, but it's more difficult) secure their system as much as they want.

No, it really won't. Doing substantial privacy and security hardening requires a years of work by a team focused on it and the OS needs to be developed with it in mind. Sure, you can enable SELinux elsewhere, but you won't have anything remotely comparable to the complete, full system SELinux policies developed as part of the Android Open Source Project and deeply integrated into it. You're talking about users doing all this from scratch somehow when there is hardly any interest in it for that ecosystem. There's barely any application sandbox or permission model to speak of and projects like Flatpak are not approaching it in a meaningful way that avoids trusting apps.

You're suggesting throwing out having an application security model and all this privacy / security work to reinvent it all from scratch for a new ecosystem without existing applications. It's hard to understand how that makes anything easier.

Having the well-defined base OS with verified boot and clear separation between the OS and applications which are sandboxed and offered capabilities via a permission model is crucial. It's not an advantage for security to completely do away with that. It's important to implement each feature / capability in a way that fits into the overall security model. Developers love taking shortcuts and doing this in a lazy / negligent way, and you can see exactly that with how people implement features via the shortest path of depending on app-accessible root instead of doing it properly, even when that's a niche thing.
The President appoints SCOTUS, so has the final say there. The critical fight was done by FDR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judicial_Procedures_Reform_Bil...

Congress and President have, as I understand it, a mutual veto - but in the case where both are controlled by the same party, they tend to defer to the party organisation, which in turn defers to the President. Where they don't, you get shutdowns.

Rough consensus is a really naive solution to making decisions. Being in a flat structure doesn't change the fact that different people have different requirements.

Just because you have more people "agreeing" to one particular idea doesn't make it the right idea.
I have heard the AMP team is/was part of the search department.
Aside from the semantic HTML movement, they're clunky and verbose, more difficult to break up into reusable components, and table rendering is more expensive than the equivalent layouts with non-table elements and CSS (at least that was my experience last time I tried profiling a table with hundreds of rows).

Edit: they also have a lot of intrinsic layout behavior that can be difficult to predict once you start getting into more complex layouts than header, sidebar, and footer.

> Frequently asked questions

> Why does The Economist call itself a newspaper?

> [...] By the time the transformation from newspaper to magazine format had been completed, the habit of referring to ourselves as “this newspaper” had stuck.
>Why do you dislike the one nationality limit?

Because it is deeply arbitrary. Plenty of people can have dual nationalities in the Netherlands, just not me. Even the Dutch Queen has two nationalities. If I married a Dutch person I could become Dutch and have two nationalities, no problem. Hopefully the law will be changed...there has been talk of it.

I'm already eligible to apply for Dutch citizenship...I'm a well-integrated contributing member of society who would love to spend the rest of my life in the Netherlands. I tick all the boxes. I want to be able to vote and have representation (I'm a taxpayer as anyone else, after all). I want to spend the rest of my life here. But it's not limited to the Netherlands...I dearly want to become European. Dutch citizenship would give me the right to live and work anywhere in the EU (and plenty of other EU countries have no issues with people having two nationalities).

I can't give up my US citizenship because of family and other ties. If I needed to return to the US for an extended time (e.g. more than a couple months) to, for example, take care of my aging parents, I would lose everything I've worked towards in the Netherlands. The residence clock would reset and I'd have to find a new highly-skilled job and start all over. Same if I ever wanted to take a (temporary) job in another country. And if you renounce US citizenship, it's hard to ever visit the US again.

1) Many of them already claim to care but won't benefit much from any policies they might implement if the US and China and India aren't going to act too.

2) The current carbon pricing bill in the House of Representatives (HR 763 [1][2]) includes border adjustments based on the carbon footprint of imported goods, which will incentivize our trading partners to implement similar policies or reduce their carbon footprints by other means.

My hope is that you can begin by dropping concerns over efficiency.

For that matter, an slight inverse of the headline is way more important, to my mind. Avoid slowly making bad decisions. An easy way to help there, is to not turn every decision into a debate.

I’ve only had about two years of software experience, but my (junior) opinion is that I’d prepare to spend even more of my brainpower on political cagematch fights than usual, as non-hierarchical means my “equals” are going to start trying to intercept credit, take lead on things, etc. and position themselves as de facto managers without me being able to tell them “fuck off, you’re not my manager.”
