Not really. Poor countries don't have expensive infrastructure investments in the current climate, so can adapt to climate change by moving a few miles. Moving New York City and Los Angeles is much harder, and the loss much more expensive.
Because you used to be able to host your web site on www.compsci.tech.youruniversity.edu, and put a HTML <form> element in there, that would send the result to myawesomeguestbook.com.

Thus, cross-origin POST requests were allowed, and changing it was impossible without breaking the web. Likewise you can include images or iframes of other origins, allowing GET requests. However, you cannot read the responses! The JavaScript APIs just make it more convenient to make these requests, but they don't change what you can do - you still can't read the response. Not allowing it in the JS API would just make the attack more annoying (fall back to the legacy methods) and limit legit use cases.

It's important that you are not allowed to make arbitrary requests: As soon as you start using advanced features like custom headers (in other words, things you couldn't do with img tags, redirects, forms, and iframes), you run into preflight (where the browser asks the server whether the request is allowed before performing it, via OPTIONS, i.e. in a way that legacy servers will not understand and safely reject).
Yes, I was just quickly paraphrasing the major takeaways on the impact of sand and its importance in our lives from the excellent book I referenced, The World in a Grain. Here is an excerpt for you and any others interested:

"He rummages through his knapsack, then pulls out a plastic sandwich bag full of white powder. “I hope we don’t get arrested,” he says. “Someone might get the wrong idea.”
...
But it’s the mineral in Glover’s bag—snowy white grains, soft as powdered sugar—that is by far the most important these days. It’s quartz, but not just any quartz. Spruce Pine, it turns out, is the source of the purest natural quartz—a species of pristine sand—ever found on Earth. This ultra‑elite deposit of silicon dioxide particles plays a key role in manufacturing the silicon used to make computer chips. In fact, there’s an excellent chance the chip that makes your laptop or cell phone work was made using sand from this obscure Appalachian backwater. “It’s a billion‑dollar industry here,” Glover says with a hooting laugh. “Can’t tell by driving through here. You’d never know it.”
...
Most of the world’s sand grains are composed of quartz, which is a form of silicon dioxide, also known as silica. High‑purity silicon dioxide particles are the essential raw materials from which we make computer chips, fiber‑optic cables, and other high‑tech hardware—the physical components on which the virtual world runs. The quantity of quartz used for these products is minuscule compared to the mountains of it used for concrete or land reclamation. But its impact is immeasurable."

A union wouldn't fix the shortage, but it would ensure that it's the workers and not the managers getting the proceeds from all that overtime work.
Ah, I might have misunderstood your question! I didn't realize we were giving Hariri a pass for gross generalizations.

Although it's a serious enough error that it might be more than just a "gross generalization." I certainly think it is.
If I understand that correctly, I think it is the opposite in the US. The packaged fruits and vegetables costs a lot more. Perhaps for the convenience value and mostly in affluent grocery stores.
> The engagement rate for sponsored posts fell to 2.4% in Q1 2019 from 4% three years earlier, while the rate for non-sponsored posts slid to 1.9% from 4.5% for the comparable periods.

So their sponsored posts get more engagement than non-sponsored posts? Does that mean people basically follow them for their product placements?

Good idea, I'll edit it.
So will you mansplain what you think those sensible threshold-meeting white women should be doing instead of software engineering?
The funny thing about this is tons of developers are using Netlify for SPA's and therefore only that first request will be caught by their edge nodes, all subsequent page views will be missed.
If an Albecurrie Drive is feasible, could an FRB be a sign of operation?
Right, that's precisely my point. At least some parts of Netflix are hoping that they can create/buy enough "original" content that they can keep people when the big things they leased leave. It's not hard to see why people demanding "lots" of content that to a content executive a lot of shows with only a season or two looks "more full of choices" than had they had fewer shows with many more seasons.

I can't fault Netflix for attempting that strategy here intentionally or accidentally. I'm not sure if it will save them in the upcoming streaming wars or not. (Personally, some of the Netflix original shows I was loyal to are already cancelled; it's also rather hard to keep loyalty to any shows with only two seasons.)

(Also, not to bum you out, but to help prepare you for the streaming wars that are coming: Parks and Rec will likely leave Netflix when Comcast/NBC Universal figure out their streaming strategy [again]. They are expected to be the next to announce things now that AT&T/Warner have announced HBO Max.)
This would utterly break the expectations of anyone coming from another platform, and a substantial amount of existing C code. (Whether that C code was allowed to make that assumption or not, it did.)

Leaving aside whether the behavior you propose qualifies as "right": no, I don't think there is any chance to change the encoding of "bool", any more than you can redefine the size of "char" or the value of CHAR_BITS. The world uses 8-bit bytes, the world uses twos-complement (C recently wrote that into the standard), and the world uses 0 for false and 1 for true.
You thought climate skeptics had too many "we don't know the full story..." type arguments? Trying convincing people to give up meat, as you're experience now.

The alternatives are grim.

As an extreme example, if I were to stream video to your browser from my website, evil.com, I would have to either host or proxy those streams through my server. Instead, I can just point your browser to a video from youtube.com or something.

If youtube.com then decides you need to log-in (or be logged-in) to verify your age (as they do), then that is between your browser and youtube.com to negotiate -- evil.com never sees your credentials.
Is Engineering and Art or Science? (Both, but it's not taight that way)
The important part is pretending something will be done (ideally by someone else), not actually tackling it.
Well then why not limit it to cases where there's no proof? I seriously don't see why someone with proof of ownership losing their property is necessary to solve any other problem.
Oh man. You should let Google know this so they can stop wasting money by paying people to label your data.
The lack of protected bike lanes is a direct consequence of the policy of providing free overnight car storage on both sides of every residential/commercial street. The days of “share the road” are over: cycling advocates need to advocate for 1/2 street parking on every street if we actually want change, because this is a zero-sum game where only one side continues to murder and maim the other because they think they have a right to get somewhere faster. Temporarily repurposing street parking is a great tactic to get people to realize how much public space is given to 1 person which could serve many.

I believe Veil (which is a dapp built ontop of the Augur protocol) supports DAI, which is a decentralized stablecoin built by MakerDAO.

The only market on Augur right now for USDT is the following one: https://predictions.global/augur-markets/will-tether-usdt-tr...

There's no liquidity though, which is a problem obviously.
It amazes me that people make statements like this without exercising any critical thought on whether it's true or verifiable. OP's car probably tells Toyota how much OP weighs, instantaneous speed, how hard OP pushes the brakes, favorite radio stations, turn signal usage, headlight usage, every on-screen computer action, seatbelt usage, gas level, current location, and identity of all other Toyotas in the vicinity (and more: use your imagination). The car has (presumably) cameras and (clearly) microphone(s) and bluetooth/wifi. But OP has it on faith that Toyota respects OP's privacy, because...

It’s not all roses! In my experience at three separate organizations, Flask apps tend to become horrific to maintain beyond a certain size, unless the original developers really know what they’re doing and are disciplined about it.

A lot of it is due to the standard patterns for small Flask apps (e.g. instantiating your app directly at the module level rather than in a factory function, putting all of your business logic into ORM classes) causing increased complexity and unintended side effects down the line. Flask apps also struggle quite a bit with performance, and the only way to do things asynchronously is with something like celery.

For Python, aiohttp is also a really interesting web framework, and the asynchronicity should be easy to grok for JS devs.

Personally, as someone who has worked with Python/Flask professionally for years, I’d pick TypeScript and any JS web framework any day!
I'm very interested in what sort of adversarial gameplay can be used against these sorts of AIs. I've read that the chess versions all have weak points, where if you know you are playing an AI, you can easily exploit them and win. They usually seem to deal with strategies over many moves, since the AI look ahead approach cannot go very many plies deep. I suspect that once a human can break a micro spamming AI tactic he can consistently beat an AI with a more long range strategy. And perhaps this approach is in general undefeatable by an AI, since it seems that AI play can only either be short term spam attacks or long play look up tables.
The search space for short term play is tractable, but long term play is exponential, so AI brute forcing will lose out to human principled reasoning. Thus, without human input in the form of game tables, the alphazero variant AIs can only optimize for short term spamming. And the alphago/deep blue variants are always downstream from human play, since they depend on human gameplay tables for deriving long term strategy and insight.
I find in most discussions of CORS, developers don't understand the _threat model_ it is meant to be guarding against.

I'm not sure I do, I get confused, although I think I have in the past.

I think better docs are needed, I haven't found really good educational materials that begin with the big picture (threat model, what are we actually trying to do here, what things are we trying to guard against, what things are out of scope for CORS to try to guard against), which to me is the necessary foundation to get your head around it: Where you need it, and what you will want to make it do.
You're welcome. Yes you still can make GET requests from evil.com to bank.com/transfer.php by setting the image src or script src or form submission though you won't be able to read the response.

This is probably the reason that any url that makes changes to user data like logout.php, transfer.php, etc must be a POST request (with csrf token to protect again requests created via form submissons)

Also it's still possible to bypass CORS using JSONp requests or for submisson, but for that transfer.php must support jsonp too (by setting the callback method)
do notation in a language without a GC is an open research question. Some believe it’s impossible.

However, we have people using Rust today that need help. We could ignore these production users and say “sorry, it’s gonna be who knows when”, or we can ship something that solves their problems. Even shipping async/await itself took four years, even though it’s a technique that’s well known!
This was addressed in their presentation 6 months ago.

TLDR: Both their APM and TTFA is comparable to human pros.
D is perfectly usable as a C with classes and modules if you use the -betterC flag, with optional lifetime checking if you want it (@safe)
Neatpick: "unabomber" as in UNABOM (University and Airline Bomber).
What's preventing the whole operation from going sideways and spewing pollution? With no economic incentive to do it right, and the impact almost impossible to measure, it could quicky devolve into environmentalism theater.
Looking at the RFC it seems to say that { 0, 0 } means "this host on the network" and must not be sent except as a source address during initialization in order for the host to learn its own IP address. My interpretation is not that this means trying to ping 0.0.0.0 is supposed to be equivalent to 127.0.0.1, but just that you can't actually set your destination address to 0.0.0.0 when sending IP packets. Linux ping's interpretation of this as meaning to fall back to 127.0.0.1 when trying to ping 0.0.0.0 doesn't seem unreasonable, but nor does it seem to be mandated by the RFC.
2.6k thumbs up doesn't mean anything: how many people didn't understand the example and so didn't hit like? How many people voted because the presenter looks good? How many people just needed the material presented again to get it and any different example would have worked? How many people spent 8 minutes learning something that they could have learned in 1 from a different teacher? How many would have understood even better if a different example was given?

There are all valid questions (and not the only ones).
I'm fairly certain that AlphaStar does not work off of the individual pixels. It gets a more abstract representation of the game state. At least, that's how the original AlphaStar worked.
Sounds like something that's going to have to be configured on your CDN. I'm assuming you already checked with them/their docs?
It would not be feasible to list every extreme event or permutations thereof, but any kind of power loss would be an undesirable event. Perhaps, it is not clear from my comment, I added a caveat to distinguish between hobbyist or commercial use i.e. in majority of former cases, it might be feasible to find a compromise between price, stability and endurance [0][1].

Further to your link, my experience with Samsung Pro series has been very favourable. YMMV.

Even a beater bike is no solution, I parked my old beater (a rusty old department store bike) at the train station, and still had the seat stolen. It was bolted on (no quick release), so whoever took it apparently had tools.

So I stopped riding to the station until I got a bike locker.
Ditto. To my personality nothing is more empowering than knowing that as a species and as individuals the stories we tell ourselves can shape not only our individual lives but the rest of the race as a whole, good and bad (I assume this is where some fears towards this notion stem). I have a feeling people from more collectivist cultures (arguably non-western) dislike this view because it means they aren't writing their "own" story and just being part of someone else's story. I'm just riffing on this latter point.
You're welcome. Personally, I used a couple of people that approached me as validation I was on the right track. I spoke with them about the market and discussed basic terms and ideas but I never intended to sell or partner with them (but wasn't against it either), I just wanted to get a read on the situation and to practice and learn. You might want to try the same, keep an open mind but use it more as a learning opportunity to see. Who knows too, maybe they surprise you. Just keep an eye out for red flags. For example, I have seen founders fall for it (and I almost did too), where you get a verbal or even a LOI for some large amount, pending due diligence of course. But in reality they are intentionally overshooting it just to get you into due diligence so they can learn what they can and then either they back out and site some deficiency in the due diligence or they low ball and say they'll only close at 25% or some crazy low number based on their findings.

This is why if they are quite a bit larger there has to be a breakup fee, something reasonable to cover your expenses, the extra time & money you are spending on accountants, legal etc. Plus it should be just expensive enough that it makes them want to complete the deal at a fair price.

Besides going through this process myself a couple of times, I've also been hired by acquiring firms to perform the due diligence on smaller companies so that has given me some awesome insight that I wish I would've had before.

No matter what you do, good luck and I wish you the best!
Pedestrians have the right of way in our state in general, but in most of the state they still wait until it's safe (i.e. no cars immediately arriving) before they cross. In Berkeley, especially in the two-lane roads immediately surrounding the university, pedestrians often walk out blindly wherever they please in the assumption that cars will stop. Getting through some intersections takes freaking forever because groups of pedestrians simply ignore the signals, causing traffic to snarl.
Just to be clear, out of the gross $920 million, Disney get ~50%, and the production budget of $180 million does not include advertising/promotion which is reportedly in the range of $50-100 million for big releases such as this.

That said it's still making good money and will make even more after the box office run.
Even the ridiculously-conservative telecoms measure their uptime in "nines". Four-nines, five-nines, whichever. "100%" is not a meaningful target.

> That doesn't mean it doesn't suffer from failures in one or multiple AZs or that it is perfect

If "100% reliability" doesn't mean 100% uptime for all users, then what does it mean?
I guess. I'm still not of the opinion anything being done here is really 'wrong' (unless the annotators are mis-using the data).
Yes, and that is a very important point you noticed.

Both CORS and CSP are for guarding against malicious code on the web, being executed by non-malicious standards-following browsers used by non-malicious users. (the user is in fact who is being attacked).

I think is frequently confused, and it leads to a mistake in the other direction, people thinking CORS or CSP can guard against malicious user-agents operated by malicious users. It is not for that!
The earlier version of AlphaStar viewed the map as one giant screen. That gave it an advantage with flanking blink micro that human players couldn't reasonably do. This was with an average pro APM restriction.

Vegan diet plan for weight loss fast
Yes, this was suggested. I don’t remember the exact reason it was rejected, other than maybe being a more unusual choice with no significantly clear benefit.

I think part of it too was that this works better if your futures were to execute immediately like promises; this would make a lot of code serial by default.
"Several years" of uptime, sample size of one. Most people here probably have systems like that, but would never have the chutzpah to believe that they'd totally engineered away the potential for downtime.

How often are changes made to the system?
Same. I almost want to launch a competing service now.
I disagree. Besides, it's not very realistic as an outcome. I think the HN revenge fantasy thing going on about Boeing right now has taken a turn for the comical. Post after post on the front page with comments about the desire for Boeing to die. It's a bit much at this point.

HN's record on such predictions is notorious anyway.

Facebook didn't fail, despite all the HN predictions and bad outcome fantasy posts. Quite the opposite. Its user base keeps expanding, its sales keep climbing, its power keeps growing. Users did not abandon it en masse. None of what was commonly predicted on HN occurred.

Intel - another common target of bad outcome fantasies - isn't failing, their profits are at all-time highs. That's despite the constant HN posts for years about that being inevitable. AMD is due to crush them any minute now, Intel is toast.

Boeing is a $200 billion valuation company - which earned $10b in profit last year - that is strategically critical to the world's largest economy and sole superpower (the one that also happens to have a $750 billion military that depends on Boeing). It's a company with one of the grandest, longest and most positive histories in all of aviation. The notion that two crashes should end that is absurd.

Boeing isn't going anywhere, not under any circumstances most likely. As things actually are, over many decades it has earned its place. If any company deserves an opportunity to re-earn trust, Boeing would qualify.

The idea of pegging a currency's value to a basket of existing fiat currencies has already been done by the IMF as Special Drawing Rights[0], where Libra's goal is to extend a similar functionality into a living digital payment system. Transfers of XDR are restricted by its issuing bodies only to nations due to the large amount of risk bourn by having the ability to print an unlimited amount of currency, and a continued guarantee for the currency to remain solvent against its allocation baskets. Governments are right to see this as a competitor to central banking as the network operates outside their jurisdiction (including the IMF'S), avoiding payment monitoring networks like SWIFT, and Libra doesn't seem to have a well-defined plan in the case of a major liquidation event.
