Racket is(was) a language to do home work assignments. I guess even their very dedicated users would either switch to scheme or will just move to Clojure, with the current situation now.

Secret Online Goldmine Review
The great thing about webinars is the potential uses you have for them are endless. They can be used for presentations and sales pitches, or they can be used for informal Q and A sessions. Regardless of how you use them, they benefit everyone because they are an interactive tool.

You get to talk directly to your audience, and they get to hear your voice, and listen to you as if they were in person, standing beside you in an office or conference. Additionally, your audience will also get to reach out to you, ask questions and have their opinions heard. Therefore it's truly a two-way, interactive medium that will establish a stronger bond with your audience, whoever they are. That personal touch was lost in the world of Internet business before webinars came along.

>> I doubt anybody in Boeing’s offices woke up and thought “what a nice morning! Time to go to work and build some dangerous airplanes that will kill people, so that I can get slightly richer”.

It is the other way around. People should understand that adding pressure on teams delivering mission critical systems is dangerous. Intentions matter very little in this context, the outcome does.
What we really need is a way to mirror that GH repo full of tracker URLs all around the world managed by Git clone-pushing bots so that these things can possibly never be shut down.

Except that throwing plastic in a landfill is carbon sequestration, and way, way better for the environment than “recycling” which usually results in it shipped to unaccountable companies overseas that dump it in the nearest river, or ending up in an incinerator and releasing it as CO2.
Nice, I missed that.

Haskell, because it has your next favourite features in it. Any criticism you have of it today will be true of your favourite language in the future (once it catches up.)
Not really, if the companies are putting plastic in unrecorded landfills, we can claim they are just dumping and not really recycling (this happens in South Italy). If the landfills are documented and it's not easy to make any place a landfill without going through a proper regulatory process, then it can serve as a good recycling step.
>I'd rather say that the urge to kill yourself is fundamentally irrational.

How so? If there is little to no expected pleasure and considerable expected pain in the foreseeable future, why is it fundamentally more rational to wait it out or "fight" instead of giving up? Both seem rational choices to me even if I'd choose the former.
Introduction to Decentralisation
The other day a lady jumped off the bridge in a suicide attempt. A passing tourist dived in and rescued her from the river below, someone else went out on a paddle-board to rescue the pair of them and the air ambulance arrived shortly thereafter to take her to the hospital.

The river is tidal and not always that deep. Luckily she didn't jump at low tide when she could have broken her legs or ended up crippled for life. As it happened she ended up in the mental health ward. I imagine they will put her on drugs such as lithium and she will lose her mind. Or they might find they have no reason to keep her in and she might discharge herself to try again.

However, if she had crippled herself then she would not be able to attempt the same thing - jumping off the bridge. But her body would be a living reminder constantly with her of a failed suicide attempt. There would be some impostor syndrome going on with that, people going the extra mile for her due to her being disabled, not through birth or accident but through a failed suicide attempt.

Due to the nuances of a suicide attempt I am not sure that the statistics in this article have much real meaning. Also, what comprises an attempt? A walk into the woods where no rope gets hung from any branch is still an aborted attempt if the intention on the first step was hanging. But actually jumping off the bridge is past that point of no return. There is grey area in this, the teenager taking too many pills can be put down as a 'cry for help' even if there is a point of no return being crossed.

Survival is also a grey area, not just in terms of physical quality of life but mental. The mental health wards of a hospital will put people on pills that take out the high and low notes of someone's mind, turning them into a functional zombie. Survival needs to be qualified as not needing the harsh medication that goes with being processed by the authorities.
Clinton received 3 million more votes. She, by any reasonable standard, won the election.

Add in third-party factors. Comey came out at the last minute with a statement he later retracted after the damage had been done that had a measureable effect on the election. The GOP works hard to disenfranchise voters. Probable Russian interference (in FB trolling and opinion influencing if nothing else). Biased media coverage that played into Trump's game.

The narrative that Clinton was a bad candidate is bs.

It's really hard to tell the difference between a suicide, someone forced into suicide, and outright murder.

I'm not saying the ontological argument is correct, just that your reasoning doesn't sufficiently refute it.
> God, by definition, is that for which no greater can be conceived.

This axiom is very questionable to people who don't already believe in God, so the proof is worthless. For example, I'd define God as a social construct created to cope with existential dread. By that definition God doesn't exist.
That you don't need to upload a torrent file somewhere in order for it to be made available by the tracker. That is, it's not running in the typical "whitelist mode", but instead, by simply announcing yourself and a torrent hash, that torrent is made available in the swarm for anyone to get in on.

This mode of operation is one of the fundamental modes of opentracker - http://erdgeist.org/arts/software/opentracker/ - which is the software pretty much all of the many open BitTorrent trackers run.

I think the effect can help you come to the conclusion many experts in fields come to after a while: The larger your knowledge, the more you are aware of your ignorance. I am sure there is an English idiom that describes it more gracefully. Maybe that is the intersection to the 20%.

Enthusiastically pointing out the discrepancy on the other end of the curve is most probably an indicator that you might have fallen "victim" to the effect itself.

Germany has 5, 10, 15 and 20 year mortgages as the „default“. With the longer ones having a legal exit option (only for the Customer) at the 10 year mark. So in case the interest goes down, you can always refinance after 10 years. Independent of your Bank agreeing to it.
Sure, it's not, so do not take it as advice, especially not ultimate advice. However, I find the inevitable intellectual shutdown when discussing matters like this even more repugnant and unwarranted.
The irregular (open) bit is that it does not require uploading torrents for them to be accepted by the tracker. You can freely announce a hash, no pre-requisites, and the torrent will exist in the swarm.
I don't agree with all of this but I am absolutely flabbergasted that Democrats seem to be falling into the exact same trap as they did during the previous election...

I'm an American living abroad and was as shocked as anyone when Trump was elected. The racism/xenophobia and pseudo-intellectual far-right rhetoric is more vocal than it has ever been before and that does have a lot to do with Trump. It should be making it painfully easy to get Trump out of office in the coming election and yet somehow the Democrats seem to think we should continue down the weird neoliberal path of the past. Just start speaking in a language that blue collar workers can understand... that's it. Nothing fancy. But for some reason it's just not happening.

I take you at your word. It's just hilarious that a post urging empathy for executives floats to the top while it's bootstraps for everyone else. [EDIT: in other upvoted HN posts, not necessarily yours.]

It starts with whittling down the outrageous soft power enjoyed by corporations, their owners, and their agents — and which you are contributing to by delaying, denying, and softening accountability for the most outrageous of executive actions.
Files – Selection of Funny Jokes on Failure and Fall
I'm glad you've found something that works _for you_, but it's really important to recognise that your experience is not usual, and that many people would find it invalidating.

My experience is a statistical outlier best case scenario. That's exactly the point of sharing it.

It took years for my sons to develop the details of this approach. Our lives got vastly better when they stopped replying to $crazything with attempted rebuttal and began replying with "Are you hungry? Thirsty? Warm enough?"

> Living alone -- Women: 45% Men 50%

This shows that living alone is a risk factor, but it also shows that most people who die by suicide do not live alone.

That is not directly salient to my point that the act of suicide tends to occur while physically alone, which is certainly not an assertion that it's 100% of the time.

I'm well aware that family can be part of the problem. Family was absolutely part of the problem when I attempted suicide at age 17.

It's generally not constructive to assume the worst about total strangers on the internet and lecture them as if they must be abusive people if they have a relative who is prone to suicidal ideation. In fact, that approach tends to make problems worse.

Abusive situations don't necessarily start with any intent to abuse. They can occur because someone either feels responsible or actually is legally responsible and doesn't have adequate knowledge or tools for coping effectively.

Desperate attempts to control another person in order to avoid X outcome easily turn abusive. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."

Sometimes simply knowing that it's possible to get through it in a humane and constructive fashion is sufficient to allow more rational impulses to rule the day. Giving in to a sense of desperation or hopelessness is typically not a good thing when facing serious problems.
The same people who make this argument usually take the view that government can't get anything done...

Or, corporations are far far more effective at tax burden reduction than governments are at revenue maximization, all things held equal.
> a spending spree that has helped Boeing treble its share price in just five years

This seems like a totally irrelevant metric. Wouldn't the relevant one be market capitalization? That's up about 2.5x over the last five years... all of which seems to be due to something that happened in the fall of 2016 (and continued through early 2018).
Indeed I do. For example, the Takata corporation negligently ignored many warnings that its airbags were unsafe. This resulted in hundreds of injuries and the deaths of 24 people. The Takata corporation was fined ~250% of its annual EBIT and three of its executives were prosecuted. For Boeing, a comparable fine would be thirty billion dollars. If you multiplied the fine by the ratio of deaths, the fine would be over 420 billion dollars.
Its power was partly in its ubiquity - people who weren't programmers stumbled across it, had a play and suddenly realised 'this is a bit handy'. There was never really a killer app for Hypercard, it had so many bizarre use-case cases. But its flexibility and ability welcome unlikely users in is where it did so well.
If we're talking about the language, we're talking about the standard, of which there is only one. Having many different compilers (and legacy code!) can indeed render the process of standardization hard (but needed), and legacy code can cause certain features not to be deprecated, but having several compilers do not render the language coherent or not.
>The ontological argument is about a specific definition of "God" as having certain properties. You cannot counter that argument by assuming a different definition of "God".

Of course you can.

The ontological argument arrived at the "specific definition" (of axioms about God) under the assumption that those are required and true attributes of any entity that can be called God.

If those are just a random selection of attributes merely thought necessary by Anselm (or Godel here), and not inherently necessarily tied to the notion of God in general, then the whole argument is moot, nothing more than a logical deduction based on some arbitrary axioms that tells us nothing about God existing or not.

The purpose of Anselm and Godel is not to show that (a) "a specific definition of God having [those] certain properties exists".

It is to assert that "those certain properties" are necessary properties of a God entity, and (b) "a God having those properties must exist", (c) "God exists".

>Your "God" can be two contradictory things at once which seems fundamentally different than the "God" defined in the ontological proof. So basically you are talking about two different things.

No, we're just talking about two different assertions of what properties God can and cannot have. God as a notion pre-exists any attributes assigned to it in a specific logical argument (for example, Godel and Anselm have both heard about the notion of God before they've picked their axioms).

When trying to match an existing notion it's not enough that one picks axioms: they should also make sure those axioms are the proper ones to capture the notion properly.

Else it's just a new arbitrary definition of an entity, which they called "God" but could just as easily have called "Bob" or "Jane".
Not a problem IMHO - all the shopping centers have good climate control systems /s
Because at a certain level of complexity and scale, it is possible to have managers in charge who no longer understand cause and consequences, especially if the time between the two is in years. Sometimes they don’t even want to understand due to the incentive they receive and the dilution of responsibility in such large organizations. The first thing such managers usually do is fire / sideline the senior engineers who complain all the time. And then...
> I doubt it has a big impact on our health and longevity

It definitely has an impact on your quality of life and helps you attain your genetic potential. If you're body is prone to cancer or alzheimer you will still get them, but until then you'll be in top physical condition.

When you're 40 and start packing up weight, can't run nor climb 3 flights of stairs without panting, can't lift your kids, can't help your friends move to a new flat, &c. fast forward 20 years and you can't get out of bed without pain, walking is a chore, stairs are your nemesis, your back pain is a constant reminder of your unwillingness to exercise.

> translates into about 2 years of productive life.

I don't think making a distinction between "productivity time" and "staying in shape time" is a good thing to do. You better shave off time by working part time than shave off time by skipping physical exercise. Life doesn't have to be all about productivity.

I guess the source of the burnout is that we are not allowed t o switch careers even for a while. e.g. you are a rockstar developer, say you take a switch to a marine archaeologist or a wildlife photographer for two years and then come back to s/w development? Oh boy you are so screwed
Because politicians can't sell going backwards. They can definitely sell going forwards, ie Green tech to the masses. If they weren't lobbied so hard by resources companies and unions we'd have been there along time ago.

There's more that goes into choosing an engine for a drone than just efficiency. Particularly important would be power/weight. A Carnot engine would get much higher efficiency for sure, but would not put out nearly enough power per weight for a drone to fly. (It's so low power we don't even use it for cars!)

> There's no "correct theological interpretation".

Theology is more correct the closer it gets to God. God is the greatest thing imaginable. Theology is an imagination of God. If God is real then there must exist more correct theologies.

So more correct theology will more descriptive of God's greatness. And a God that can be rational is greater than a God that strictly stays outside of rationality.

That's a classic "correlation doesn't imply causation" situation. Those owning guns may have guns exactly because they have a high chance of getting shot, and owning a gun actually lowers the chance. Not saying that this is the case or not, but your statement is misleading.

They mostly think that incinerators need to be modernized first, and old ones should be forbidden to use. This is costly, and the whole "desupply" chain is not transparent: people do not know whether their local incinerators is recent or not. I do not know, even if I try to find info.

Authorities are not incentivized to be transparent about it, and waste management companies neither.

I've also had weight loss success with IF. I do 16/8 mostly with the occastional 24 hour fast. I get a lot of pushback that it's 'bro science', and a lot of claims around improving insulin resistance isn't proven, so it's good to get some science behind the practice that clearly works.

The reason I have found it effective is that it's simple to follow. I don't need to count calories, I don't have to learn too much at all, I simply don't eat outside of my hours. Given I've now found I don't feel hungry most days until I start eating, it means I eat less.

Now the net result may simply be less calories, that that's not as simple as 'calories in calories out', because I'm consuming less as a consequence of the timing, not by consciously eating less. This may be an odd distinction for people who can diet, but for those of us who struggle with weight, it's crucial to success.
