There's an avocado craze since years, and EU agricultural regulations determine how convenient is to cultivate something. But hey, "climate change". So much more interesting.

Pet peeve of mine: "climate wars". Sometimes we (the West) have been arming and training rebel factions for years, or destabilised governments, or paid the corrupt ones to serve our interests. And if a war breaks out, hey, "it's climate change!"
Berlin has been building an airport for fifteen years now. Building large things takes time, especially if it's supposed to be an international collaboration.
There's plenty of time to do the reboot between turning the planes (disembarking and boarding) - a good amount of A350 planes spend the day in the sun at their destinations since the operator can't fly anywhere else with them between flights.

Nice. Which parent company did you get the plan from?

I am among the few who bought Sprint's $15 Kickstart plan during the two weeks it was available last year. It's not as nice as yours—there is a 50GB cap before deprioritization (not throttling [1]) occurs, and I presume yours allows for hotspot—but an unlimited plan for $15 is amazing, even if on the Sprint network.

I'd heard that Sprint is good about honoring grandfathered plans. Your experience further encourages me that $15 Kickstart will continue through the T-Mobile acquisition.

>Yet, you cannot do any of that on HN (other than a limited case like italic). But, we can communicate just fine without those features.

That is now how it works. People subscribe to more than one content producer which allows the aggregator the power to merge and reorder the individual streams. You do not pay for being displayed, you pay for being prioritized in the stream.

Phone number as a requirement and an identifier is pretty serious in the context of security and pro-privacy. In my opinion it disqualifies any IM software if security and privacy is desired. Yes, there are other things to consider, but this issue alone is a deal-breaker, at least to me.

> Both countries with socialized medicine and yet they still didn't come up with a cure.

This is misleading. The original post was about medical research, which neither in Greece nor in England is any more "socialized" than elsewhere. They might have national health services, but those buy their medicines from the same private actors as any hospital in the United States.

Also note that the original article is specifically not about profit-driven R&D but about a donation-funded, non-profit venture. The (hopeful!) success of such a venture does not really translate well into an argument for private, for-profit medicine R&D.

You could argue that it's the raw capitalistic drive of SV that is uniquely able to generate the wealth necessary for such non-profit ventures, ok, fine (there are also counter arguments to this), but this was not really the point of the original comment.

> I run a lot of machines on Ubuntu LTS

If you don't like frozen packages, why are you using Ubuntu LTS? Ubuntu provides an updated stable release every six months if you want something closer to rolling. But most Ubuntu users, not even desktop users, use that. The market is speaking, and it wants stable releases frozen for years at a time.

It is a contradiction to demand both.
When dealing with physical systems it is impossible to have no bugs. To give an extreme example, there is a not a small chance that the cosmic rays can change a bit in a system's memory - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2580933/cosmic-rays-what...

The issue here is overflow due to time. The time is saved in a variable (don't know how much bits), which overflows after the gives period. Now there are two options
1. Upgrade circuits of every plane. These planes were designed/built a long time back. Bigger registers were not practical due to costs.
2. Document it and have a process for it.
when will this chatbot fad die out?
I love item #2, as it talks about writing code that can safely handle "future" enums and values as a result of rolled back code. Maybe we should call it the Sarah Connor Pattern.

I haven't heard enough people discuss the deployment management of growing enums or state machine evolution. This is a problem more particular to software than hardware, as once hardware is shipped it's usually set in silicon, but growing of the state garden is an expectation in many software architectures.

As you become more senior you'll realise that most companies won't be able to pay everyone high rates, so you'll either have to accept a cap on your pay for fairness or move to another company that doesn't publicise what everyone earns.

“Qualia” is a philosophical term of art referring to the subjective experiences that are considered to uniquely define consciousness. A creature without qualia perceives a noxious stimulus; a creature with them feels pain. If, as other commenters would have it, there is something of the “god of the gaps” about consciousness, then qualia are what fill those gaps.

I find the UI/UX of Signal to be good enough that I used it as my default messaging app, even though I only have a few contacts who use(d) Signal.

It took until Oreo/Pie for the stock messaging app to become equally good or better, and by then none of my contacts bothered with using Signal anymore. It's now 0% Signal, 0.1% text messages, 0.1% WhatsApp, 99.8% FB Messenger, which is really depressing.

That isn't completely true. A well managed forest will sequester some carbon when it burns. Note well managed in there, that means a small fire every year, a large fire gets hot enough to burn all the carbon, but a small fire will burn only part of the carbon and leave the rest as charcoal. Moral: shoot smokey the bear and let foresters start the fires they want to if only they were allowed to.

Of course the above is a generalization, and as all of them false in some way. Ask your local forester what applies to the forest in your area, but don't try to apply it to a forest in the next neighborhood as that might be different.

You've missed the point.

There is no solution. If you build in your "exceptional access" exception, then the system is broken by design and no one will use it. That's the end of the discussion, there's nothing more to discuss. You can rube goldberg "solutions" all day long, but in the end you're just figuring out ways to deploy a broken system.

You started arguing that the Rust compiler should expose its internal data-structures, which it does, and somehow ended arguing that the Rust standard library should expose spatial data-structures for geometry processing.

I have no idea how you got from one to the other, but writing a huge wall of text full of disorganized thoughts shows very little appreciation for the time of those participating in this discussion thread, so I won't interact with you anymore.
Great idea thanks for sharing.

What you're not following, I think, is how little I care about cars and car companies. :) I don't care about Nissan, and I certainly don't care about a company a quarter their size. I care a little about Toyota because they're huge, but yes, small companies in industries that don't directly impact me are unimportant to me.

If I worked for a car company, I'd probably care, but I work for a tech company, so I don't.

> A Tesla may be a good car, a poor car, depending on who you ask. What it is definitely not is your average Volkswagen.

Okay, sure, it's twice that car a Volkswagen is, I trust you. But it's still a car.

Again, I think there is a significant faction of Tesla fans that don't see Tesla as a car company, and instead see it more like SpaceX. I don't.

There are several metrics in addition to the k-annonimity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-anonymity) that has been going around the past few days. For example l-diversity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-diversity) and t-closeness (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-closeness)

t-closeness, is defined as: An equivalence class is said to have t-closeness if the distance between the distribution of a sensitive attribute in this class and the distribution of the attribute in the whole table is no more than a threshold. A table is said to have t-closeness if all equivalence classes have t-closeness.

In short: the distribution of a particular sensitive value should not be further away than a distance t from the overall distribution.

Using the t-closeness metric circumvents issues associated with k-anonymity and ℓ-diversity. Briefly, k-anonymity states that a certain attribute class should be present in at least k records, which introduces ambiguity in the data set. However, if each of the k equivalence classes are the same, properties could still be resolved simply by elimination. The ℓ-diversity metric circumvents this problem by adding a further requirement: in addition to the class to being seen in k records, these records must have at least ℓ ‘well represented’ values. But if an attacker knows the real-world distribution of values, then attributes could still be disclosed with a certain probability, simply by combining different data sources

What I've found in looking at historical financial comparisons in the past is that they are inherently unstable / inexact as you get further and further back.

Fifty years ago, even, things fall apart a little. At one point in an early Mad Men episode, some reference is made to whether or not Draper is making $40,000 a year. A basic inflation calculator puts this at about $342K today, but the implication in the show (and in other reading) suggests it likely involved much more purchasing power than $342K implies.

Going back 100 or 200 years, and the economics drift. Prices for goods and for services change relative to each other, so straight-up purchasing power comparisons are hard to establish.

Today, we probably wouldn't parse a $2M inheritance as set-for-life (maybe?), but clearly the implication is that Cosette was, right?

All that is a long way of saying that we can really only know that Darcy was rich, and enjoyed a very healthy income assuming his source assets were protected and working. His friend, less so, but still solidly a member of the correct class.

The thing here is that the issue is well understood and the root cause is known. We know that rebooting prevents the error.

The problem is when "have you tried rebooting" becomes the first troubleshooting step and you stop investigating.

But if you realise after the investigation that a reboot reliably prevents the issue, it's a worthwhile approach, especially if fixing the error would require many complicated changes that may lead to further errors.

I’m not sure how unpopular this opinion is, but I’d actually argue that there are underrated human benefits to using “just protobuf”, which are not shared by using “just JSON”.

1. Single source of truth for certain types, enums.

2. (assuming you’re using gRPC too) A separate, minimalist, and language-agnostic definition of your service interface, which you can document with comments to your heart’s content, and which (unlike other documentation) can NOT be out of sync with the actual service. I don’t have to read C++ to understand your C++ service should work.

3. Protobufs encourage message type / enum reuse, by allowing you to import other definitions. This might seem trivial, but it’s super important in mediumish orgs that everyone is using the same definition of time, geography, etc. It all adds up to less surprises when you open up a new .proto file.

The kicker is not that you can’t somehow get these things with JSON-over-HTTP, too. It’s that protobufs-over-gRPC won’t work without them. The trade off is that you can’t inspect raw requests unless you have built some tooling around it.
I still use it for most websites I build. Ruby + jquery are still great!

I’ve inherited a ton of backbone, angular, react projects and it’s always a pain sourcing devs for whatever random thing a project was written in 1-8 years ago. Jquery is just jquery and you can put anyone on it.

EXCEPT I reached out to the lambda school contractor program for a work project and was pretty shocked they only do node+react.
It depends on the alert :D

More seriously though:

I had a ChatOps setup a few years back where authorized users could send commands to the config management/remote execution system we used to manage all our servers (in this instance, SaltStack).

Junior staff and people who were more on the "Dev" side DevOps were able to watch the full incident process from Alert -> Investigation -> Remediation both in real-time, and by reviewing the logs.

In the same way, people were able to learn commands to create and destroy infrastructure, which was useful for their workflow and improved efficiency all around.

It takes a fair bit of work to get setup properly, but it's pretty great once you do.
Paypal's revenue is more around 15B currently. So, not yet.
Would this also affect Visa and MasterCard?
Feudalism and democracy are compatible.
I agree, but the problem for a buyer comes when the number of sellers is so few (2 or 3 in many markets), that they effectively have no options. You can easily be blacklisted nationwide (perhaps deservedly, perhaps not), but there is no recourse, and no transparency.

It's also psychologically different when you know an organization is tracking every single person and how much future potential revenue they can bring versus how much they cost to support and price discriminating accordingly. It's obviously the optimal thing to do as a business, but as a society, the idea that we're equal and should be treated as such is also an important feeling. I can see possible discord in society from having that socioeconomic tiering be so blatant and in your face, but perhaps it's inevitable in a world where the gap between the haves and have nots keeps getting bigger and bigger.

I don't go to theme parks much, but I did a couple years ago as an adult for the first time since I was a kid, and I have to say it felt weird to see all of the different tiers for the queues for the rides. You pay $x, you wait in longer line, you pay $x+$20, you get to skip to halfway through the line, you pay $x+$50, you get to skip to front of line. It really brings to the forefront how un-valuable your time may be compared to someone who can afford to spend more, and I know the world has always worked like that, but I wonder how it feels to the kid who can see it happening in front of them.
There are a lot of hidden assumptions here.

One of them being that protein-dense foods always has a greater impact on the environment than other foodstuffs. There are plenty of vegetarian or even vegan bodybuilders, and we know how to isolate protein from vegetables. Pulses are protein-rich, if you don't want to eat isolated proteins.

The second one is that a muscular body will always require more energy than a non-muscular body. While muscle does have higher calorie requirements than most other kinds of tissue, most fit people actually eat less calories (and better quality calories) than unfit people, due to being used to keeping their diet under control.

The final one is that the only thing one might want to do with their life is their job. Even if you work a desk job, that doesn't mean you won't want to be physically active in your off time.
