One of the most important questions:

What is the attrition rate for the manager and for the company in general. If a manager has high attrition rate, that's definitely a red flag.
I think he does read it.

Not sure how "agile" it all is but it isn't the worst system as in it isn't as disruptive as everyone chatting all the time.

That's a myth. Most people are rich because their parents were. Most of the rest is rich because they were/are lawyers or medical doctors. (For the super-rich, business and finance becomes more important. But for your average "middle-class rich", lawyers and doctors just dwarf their numbers. Business also has highly unequal outcomes).

As to why this myth persists, I guess it goes well with American puritanical roots. Many possibly don't belief in a strict correlation, if not causality, of everyone's financial situation and their individual moral character, but still promote the idea. See also: prosperity gospel, Ayn Rand.
I think your original intuition might be right.

I've been to Fanny's and ordered this dish. It was nothing special, and definitely not ad worthy, unless some marketing company is literally making ads out of every single thing on the menu.

Edit: Apparently my pallet is wrong. The Faggots received several positive mentions on the Trip Adviser Page, so it may make sense to promote that as a featured item.

How? Common sense.

For more, notice other violinists

etc.

Don't need a camera or mirror.

You seem to be missing the point: I'm trying to indicate a solution, and you and others are angry enough at me to beat me to a pulp and throw my dead body to the sharks. Why? Because I gave an answer, a solution, instead of just dripping empathy without a solution.

The OP is not the first time I've seen violinists suffer from holding the violin wrong starting at the beginning. The woman in the OP is not nearly the first. E.g., Zino Francescatti suffered all his career because he held his violin mostly with just his left hand instead of his chin. And, there's a SOLUTION to this problem -- look at some good pictures.

Here I may have helped some beginning violin student children of some Hacker News readers.

I said over and over, look at some good pictures, e.g., if only from old record jackets, now some Youtube video clips, and lots of people here believe I am a monster to be thrown to the sharks. Bizarre.
If homicides are down by a single person, it would take an awful lot of littering and vandalism before I said crime went up.

I agree that all crime is something to be concerned about, and that minor crimes are easier to sweep under the rug with creative record keeping. But let's also keep in mind what's really important.
It doesn't seem to usually devolve into arguments (heated exchanges), but it does tend to include debates. Just because not everyone agrees with you (or even each other) doesn't mean the topic isn't worth discussing, or that the comments are uncivil.
In plain JavaScript, 'foo' + null == 'foonull'. This isn't always what you want, but in the vast majority of cases if you're creating a string, it's:

1) For displaying to the user

2) Generating a CSS class or something to that effect

In both of these cases the above is quite a reasonable behavior, and will never cause a runtime exception, and very rarely even a business-logic error. But if I'm working with the result of a .find() or a maybe-property on an object type, I now have to add null checks (or at best || '' fallbacks) everywhere, muddling up my code and making it harder to follow.

That's assuming that those 6k views were distributed evenly throughout the day. The article mentions the Hacker News / Reddit effect, so I'm assuming there was, indeed, a sizable increase in traffic for a short duration that a raspberry pi wouldn't be able to handle.

I do wish it showed precisely what happened on that 6k view day, however

It's a bet that the price of BTC will increase (with respect to fiat).
I wonder what the audience of such a leader is. JavaScript engines would probably profit here, given the waste amount of code we download every day. Maybe even browsers in general. Maybe shells.

But your average compiler or interpreter? The thing is that new languages change so often, do you really want to always generate a lexer table for every new keyword? Or complicate your build system by not using the industry standard tools? And if you have an old language, do you really want to touch that lexer that some bearded hacker has gobbled together decades ago so it works both on a PDP11 and some long forgotten microcomputer?
This is true of any market cap valuation.
It sounds like you may hold the misconception. Only ~12% of millionaires inherited their wealth. The remainder are "self-made", in that they lived below their means, and saved.

I don't think those private keys are presumed lost. Those Satoshi coins are being kept there deliberately.
The thing about large sums of bitcoin is that they aren't worth what the conversion rate says they are. Trying to spend 95 thousand bitcoins would shatter the market and send the value of a bitcoin way, way down.
I hate how this comment is on every website's comment section when smoking is brought up.

Smokers know that smoking cigarettes is unhealthy. But it's difficult to stop, since they are addicted. I'm sure you feel enlightened saying "uh, just stop duh", but it's not that straight forward.

In Laymen's terms it says "Don't let the actor stand around breathing that shit any longer than necessary for the scene".

To me, that's very different from "inhale this shit directly into your lungs repeatedly multiple times a day".

No - they say it wasn’t any of “their own” funds... could still well be funds from their exchange
Seems hard to combine with

a) giving parents the freedom to not have
their children vaccinated.
b) compulsory schooling.
c) society feeling obliged to ensure that children
get a decent basic education.

But, reading the article, that’s not what those doctors say:

”They want school entry procedures toughened so that the only exceptions made to the new rule would be for children whose parents have registered a conscientious objection to the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine or those whose health means they cannot have it”
In some cases more onchain transactions does mean more rewards for miners, as transactions will need to outbid with more fees for blockspace. How this relates to hashrate depends on things like the ratio of the block reward vs the block fees.

But in the context of "what if the the whole world uses bitcoin", the vast majority of transactions will not be onchain. But instead will be transacted via other more efficient layers (sidechains - like Liquid, or level 2 - like lightning).
Vaping is not more deadly than smoking cigarettes.
You could transfer it for free, by check. It would take a while to clear, though.

yes. i realize, but having a 3rd part manage the control plane for you != you managing the control plane. again, this comes down to delegating the work to someone that does this for a living. You could say you're using k8s at that point but you're definitely not operating a k8s cluster

The fact that ubuntu's (and by extension, most WSL installs') default python is python 2 is crazy, and definitely not helping the situation.
Wait, so in your first paragraph, you acknowledge the likeliness that the afflicted is almost certainly from contaminated THC cartridges.

But in the second paragraph, you say that Juul -- a legal company that produces NICOTINE cartridges, not THC -- should be shut down.

How does A lead to B here?
People sometimes think crime is getting worse because the total amount of crimes actually does increase (so they really do see more of it), whereas the per-capita amount falls. I don't see this clearly translating to the hurricane situation.

Almost 500k die from smoking cigarettes every year, so vaping seems like a great alternative.
> They currently have a small and changing dataset. These are news articles, not peer-reviewed scientific papers.

Neither of these prevents them from publishing the dataset that they do have.

> When researchers publish datasets it’s to back up conclusions that they’ve made based on the data, and in this case they haven’t reached conclusions.

Correct, but they are broadcasting a high level of danger "associated with" vaping, and rather than transparently and fully disclosing the data that as-close-as-possible reflects the specific area of the danger, they are instead using ambiguous text to describe the data in a way that makes it highly uncertain where the actual danger lies, while "hinting" (but explicitly saying) that the danger lies in ecigs in general, not THC vapes in particular. Nothing about the data is forcing them to do this, they are choosing to do this. I am curious why.

> Implying otherwise to the public would be irresponsible.

Implying something, while hiding what actual facts (data) they have in their possession is precisely what they are doing now. And yes, it is irresponsible.

I can think of a several entities who would rather the actual data ("facts", to the best of our knowledge) is kept secret and have this (unnecessarily) vague story of danger drag out as long as possible in the media and public dialogue. However, I can think of no valid reason that the data needs to be kept secret - can you?
It's actually pretty scary giving out money (in any form) to international peoples potentially sanctioned by OFAC. Making it their problem through an EULA is an interesting strategy.

The they likely would have lost enormous amounts in tumbling fees.
It says "50 US States and Territories." The most natural parsing is that 50 entities are investigating, and some of those entities are states and some are territories. It's possible to parse it as saying all 50 states as well as (some) territories, although this phrasing would be awkward. If the former parsing is correct, then the number of states is less than 50, with the remainder being territories.

For the life of me, I cannot find anything in the article which lets me figure out who is actually investigating.

Am I correctly interpreting the clause as saying that pretty much only Americans are eligible? I'm confused because if that is the intent then the clause is really burying the lede when it starts out by excluding "users in certain countries".
Is that what the marketers of the product are claiming as well? I see quite the opposite in the world around me. I feel the vaping industry is just as corrupt if not more so than the awful cigarette companies. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/juul-came-to-a-9th-grade-classr...

Bitcoin is open and transparent by design, people think it's anonymous because it was used for dark markets before the Feds caught on.

The orbiter got into a polar orbit simply by being in the right place when the moon swept in at 1100 mph and snapped it up.

It ended up in a very eccentric polar orbit with its axis pointing at Earth, swinging way out to the left as viewed from Earth. It spent the next week circularizing, after which it was in a nearly circular polar orbit but, because the moon is swinging around, the axis pointed along the moon's orbital path, such that only half of its orbit was in view of (and in radio contact) with Earth. A few days after that it (or, rather, the moon) had swung around enough to put the orbiter in line of sight to Earth for most of its orbit very close to the moon.
Technically says 50 States and Territories, but I can’t read past that because of the paywall so there’s maybe up to 5 territories which are also investigating and maybe up to 5 US States which are not investigating at all.

Or alternatively, all US States really are investigating and it was purely an editorial decision to say “50 States and territories”. I’m open to that possibility because I’m cynical about this particular source’s writing and editorial style and wouldn’t put it past them even when they have the facts of the matter largely correct. But, paywall.

This problem isn't exactly Arabic-specific, it's just super easy to trigger in Arabic. You've got kerning in the Latin script as well, and you could theoretically have a font that makes `the` look smaller than `th`.

But in Arabic, letters change form based on where they are in the word. All three things with two dots on them are the same letter in تتت, but the middle one is much smaller. I can imagine something like يم being truncated to ي and the end result being longer visually, depending on the font.

But what about people from countries other than the US that are are not sanctioned by OFAC? "further you agree you're not a non-resident alien of the United States"

Next time I'd recommend use of the word "Fifty" in this case. Which doesn't work if the number your article starts with is 53,295, but works great for a short number like 50. It maintains the accuracy, as someone pointed out "all" may not be true here.
True, but this way it avoids the GMO label. :)

Male breast cancer: Developing drugs for treatment
> It effectively establishes a billion dollar bounty for any party who can rewrite enough blocks to erase it.

To do what exactly?

Nobody can redirect the transaction to themselves and the best they can do is erase it. 51% attacking the network will cost you a lot, and you won't actually win anything in your attack.

Even if the owner of the coins is the attacker, you can only win by double-spending the transaction by reversing a payment to someone else. Of course if we're talking about such a large transaction you should wait for more confirmations, making the double-spend attack so much more difficult to pull off.

Anything you would get in return, like a bank transfer or parts of a city, would have a much longer settlement time. Being afraid of your Bitcoin transaction being reversed should be the least of your worries.
Rich people would consider being soft and cynical as virtuous? There's no way to read the quote in a positive manner.
If you make 140400 a year and are getting 2 weeks of vacation. You are making $2700 a week. If you took another week off of unpaid time off. You will lose $2700 for that year.

If they gave you an extra week of vacation. Your taxes wouldn’t change. If instead they gave you an extra $2700 in salary and you took a week off of unpaid time off, you have to pay 24% in Federal taxes on that income + 1.45% in Medicare (you are already over the social security maximum).

You would need to make $3621 more just to start breaking even ($2700/(1 - .24 - .0145)). But even then you are paying taxes on the extra 3621-2700. I’m sure there is some formula to break even but I would just ask for an extra $4000 and call it a day.
Thanks for sharing! Really appreciate it.
Bitcoin is inflationary, as there is new money created every 10 minutes or so. Wether it increases or decreases in value relative to the USD is subject to speculation regarding the expectations of the "demand" of bitcoins, which are certainly not stable. USD on the other hand is much more stable regarding inflation or deflation.
