2) Value types in structures would need to be nominal, not structural. I really don't care if I get a tuple of
[Int32, String], I very rarely care what the machine level types are, what I really want is [ProductID, ProductName],
what the underlying types are doesn't really matter to me.

In Go, there's a practice called "microtyping" (credit goes to HN user jerf) where everything is type defined to a semantic name. So you never have a struct with a string for ProductID and ProductName. Instead, you have a struct containing a ProductID and a ProductName. This makes it very easy to change your mind. I used to have a base64 encoded UUID as an EntityID in my MMO. I implemented microtyping, and after that, changing EntityID to 128 bits was a breeze!
The idea that you could change the world for the better with electric private transport appears be an American trait and Musk is convinced by this, with frequent attacks of mass public transit. A better future doesn’t involve better cars. Cheaper or more efficient use of energy is simply going to increase energy consumption.
The 2016 MBP's may have been designed, but Apple did not need to ship them.

More importantly, Apple did not need to also ship the 2017 MPB, the 2018 MBP(s), or the 2018 MBA. If they didn't have any alternate designs in the pipeline (why is that?), they should have reverted back to the 2015 design, with new parts.

> There's no evidence that I know of that the limbic system and the cortex are in this sort of relationship

It's true that in mammals (possessing a neocortex) the cortex takes over various processes traditionally performed by the limbic system. Complete removal of the cortex in rats demonstrates that behaviour can revert to entirely limbic control: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/564358

While the cortex can definitely be / become "in charge" of complex intelligent behaviours, it may still need the brain's phylogenically older machinery to bootstrap it.
The problem is that the train has to compete with 3 hours by car... And then the ability to actually use a car at your destination. The transit systems in either Seattle, or Portland, are nowhere near as good as they are in New York.
Not one thing you said is a reasonable concern. Rental cars must be picked up during business hours (which is 24/7 in a lot of places), but can be dropped off at any time. Any decent agency will provide proper tires for your climate. Bankrupcy can be 100% avoided by paying the extra insurance. It is literally impossible to spend "half a weekend" dealing with the rental car.

I hate using Windows 10 because I am constantly hitting new unique bugs in the UI, and regularly enough I run into complete show-stoppers. Windows UI is just so broken.

I do run into bugs on Ubuntu, but usually there is a workaround. And I have lower expectations when it costs $0 (and without the trillion dollar market cap of Microsoft).

I also regularly find bugs in macOS, which annoys me since we pay such a premium for Apple software.

I agree. On one hand, Autopilot hardware is holding back Tesla from making its cars significantly cheaper, while on the other, the best hardware they've put in their cars is still nowhere near powerful enough for a sufficiently safe level of "self-driving".

I do think Tesla's attention to detail in regards to crash safety and safety against battery fires is also quite important, and they should keep doing those things for all of their cars, but I don't think those alone require Tesla to make $35,000+ cars. I think they could build a good enough EV for $25,000 right now, and even a cheaper one in a few years. In fact, they should strive for that more than anything else (including AutoPilot).

I'm not saying Tesla should end-up building $8,000 EVs - what I'm saying is their threshold should be much lower than it is right now if they still want to remain relevant in the new EV world. Sure, you could argue that Porsche doesn't sell a ton of cars a year, yet everyone knows it, but it's not "relevant" to most people.

> I've never understood this viewpoint - children are simply the most fascinating things!

Yeah seriously. My wife and I have a six month old and simply because we want to educate her, we've both been reading way more than normal. My wife (who stays at home with our daughter all day) has already completed a university lecture series + read many books on ancient civilizations. I've started reading about philosophy on my bus ride to/from work.

Having children has only expanded our desire and ability to learn.
Facet | San Francisco, CA | Software Engineer | Full-time | Onsite or Remote

Facet is harnessing machine intelligence to make photo editing quick, collaborative, and scalable. We understand that pictures are more than just pixels, so we're building a platform that lets creative professionals edit collections of photographs in terms of the people, objects, and colors they contain.

We're looking for engineers who can think deeply about complex systems and empathize with artists, and are also curious and creative. We use Typescript, React, WebGL, GraphQL, Postgres, Node, Python, and Tensorflow, but it's not a big deal if you haven't.

Our team includes folks from Google, Adobe, and Cruise, and we're backed by great VCs, former Dropbox execs, and AI researchers from Google Brain and Salesforce.

If you'd like to talk, I'm the CTO and you can drop me an email at matt at facet.ai.

I know at least three startups personally who have a working product with a remote team. The key, though is that if you're the CEO driving the product, you don't need to use expensive Bay Area engineers. There are lots of good Pakistanis living in Pakistan who'll do as good a job.

Once you go remote as a founder, there's no reason to search only in America. It's going to be a revolution in product development, I think.

IBM advertise their "big iron" systems in Transactions Per Second. A measure of the total system performance; IPC, Buses, caches, etc. They get shit stomped in a traditional CPU bound benchmark. Remember Apples marketing using "The Megahertz Myth" in their later PPC days because of how one sided benchmarks (and clock speeds) were getting?

It's a fine arch with plenty to offer but a 1:1 comparison with an x86 desktop is like saying that a 50 ton bulldozer just got wrecked in a race with a Bugatti Veron.

Perhaps some thing think it's uncomfortably close to the 'slur' of 'virtue signalling' that people throw around. While I'm sure the intention was nothing but pure in how it was used here, it did make bit second-read the comment to assess whether it was being used in a negative way, and to really understand the point being put across.
Disagree, shoes/clothes costs are not at all compatible with the costs associated with physical location of work costs.

Accounting departments spend a great deal of focus on fixed asset depreciation for tax purposes, and general office planning. Eventually, work places move to new buildings- office buildings get old and in disrepair from use.

These costs that a company accepts as part of doing business get offloaded to the remote employee. It's most certainly a planning factor doing business- check out a SEC form for instance.

With remote work, that cost gets offloaded to an employee. You won't see the impact on your house for a long time, but unless companies are subsidizing you to afford a bigger home to account for additional office space needed, that wear and tear from use, that asset deprecation as a result of work use, comes into your actual home.

So the question should be along the lines of:

- where is your fixed asset depreciation as a part of doing business for your taxes? Are you filing it? Your company certainly is.

or

- are the remote work benefits enough for having to accept this cost without financial augmentation

or

-are you getting paid enough extra to cover this.

Odds are most workers who work remote won't/don't consider this, but your company certainly is for its own workplace, why not you? You've leased out part of your home for your company's workspace essentially, but done so free of charge.

I was just researching OAuth servers last week and came across Hydra several times. Congrats all on a big release!

Ran across some unexpected drama while poking around: apparently, one of the main authors of OAuth2 spec withdrew his name from the publication and has repeatedly publicly derided the standard. https://vimeo.com/52882780. Parts I heard were good.

I'd just like to make a small request that developers on tiny internal-only APIs not make a big ordeal out of OAuth and require a big honking session store anchored against the "user's" OAuth creds on every internal, service-to-service request, thanks.

I think fuel/maintenance costs are where EVs start winning.

France has a $.14EU cost per kWh and ~$1.40 per liter of petrol/gas. That comes to about $0.014 EU per km and around $0.07 EU per km in france.

This assumes an engine efficiency of 0.05L petrol per km (20km per L) and 100 Wh per km.

In other words, with a lot of driving, electric will ultimately be a lot cheaper to operate.

At 90km, you'd break even in france (assuming 5k price difference). That's about 18km per year.
The view is US centric but how many completely new subways did Europe build ? And how long did it take ?
You cant retrofit subways to existing cities and the only country that does not care about spending billions and human lives is China.
What about bird intelligence? The modern view is that the parts of the bird brain use to be called the pallium actually are organized in a similar way as the neocortex. Although a bird brain is usually smaller than the mammal brain, it has in many case the same amount of neurons. Actually, a high percentage of neurons are located in the pallium than in the neocortex. Please note that our cerebellum contains more than half of the number of neurons in the brain.

Do you think there is any scenario where it can be a bargaining chip that results in its independence?

1997 China is very different than 2019 China with regard to the successes in Shanghai's free trade zone and Guangzhou. The Communist Party is very very far from the teachings of Karl Marx and there is no outcome of a communist utopia that dissolves the central planners, after the means of production are completely egalitarian (a communist state is supposed to be a means to an end, all communist states have failed during this supposedly transitionary stage, China is stable in its central control of power, but doesn't seem to be aiming for a transaction to this fictional untested standard of governance). I don't get the impression that the people buy it, with so many known ways to effect private ownership and capital formation. The effect being that Hong Kong itself isn't that relevant and is more of a blight to undermine the Communist Party's power.

How many resources does the party need to deploy to maintain this information leakage? There would be considerably less international
heat on the Communist Party if they let go of their Special Administrative Regions. Other provinces don't derive their adherence to the party based on what happens to the SARs.

A name only made better by the ship class, "Psychopath"!

Talking of which. I really love how the class names of the various warships are, lets say, less than subtle. Something of a self referential reminder that in war, one must accept that you're always the villain of someone's story, and war is never pretty.
I mean I live in the United States, and I've never gotten any weird stares for being with my baby girl alone, without my wife.
Was rolling that over. I suspect repair and maintenance cost savings probably don't kick in very much until after the warranted period expires. So higher sales price means higher initial operating costs. Compare a couple hundred a month car payments with $30-40/month savings on fuel.

So someone buying an EV today isn't going to save any real money for the first 5-6 years. Who ever buys the car on the used market will likely do well though.
