This is at least better than a totally passive style, like "four people were killed", which is used just below that caption. In this case the headline writer does a better job than the author, using "crash" while TFA has: 1 x "collision", 5 x "incident", 8 x "accident". To be clear, "accident" is an inaccurate word in this context. It seems remotely possible although certainly not likely that a 42yo man could have the first seizure event of his life while driving near pedestrians, so that small aspect of this crash could have been accidental. However, he certainly didn't "accidentally" drive an SUV through a dense urban area. Using the inaccurate term is prejudicial.
Margrethe Vestager stays on as EU competition head in blow for tech giants
The point here is that this guest is misleading everyone and the media is eating it up. Airbnb says that the hosts description of the place was reasonable. It had AC. It just didn't have it in every room the guest wanted. This is not a "fan is AC" - and airbnb never said that, this (spoiled) guest did. What airbnb is saying is some rooms have AC is AC. While that could be argued, the headline should reflect that.

If you're just reading the headline easy to get it wrong. But these "outrage" stories often have another side.
If you look at GP's link, you can see that the VSCode integration (perhaps others too) allows editing either the code or the diagram, and it's propagated to the other in real time.

I'm not certain it's unique, but it's pretty neat, and I can see how designing the whole language around servicing network requests would make it easier to implement / more reliably work.

> I don't think that's a sustainable or worthwhile approach.

I have several thousand miles of evidence to the contrary. There's a lot of "exercise" not worthy of the name. For many people, especially at my age, the very heart/lung exertion that characterizes true exercise is at least mildly unpleasant regardless of how it's attained. Fortunately, one can harness competitive or goal-oriented impulses to make up for it. I count miles, I track my pace, I compare myself to other runners my age, I look at the scale, etc. Thinking about these results helps me keep going when I exercise just like it does when I'm hacking on some grotty piece of code at work, and I've been doing that continuously for longer than most here have been alive.

If I only ever did things that were fun in the moment, I'd be a bit of a failure, so I suppose learning the value of deferred gratification is another potential answer to the original question.
That is often true that one of the consultant I had could focus on solving some gaps and the overhead is too high.

One of the primary reasons, we need a general purpose programming language focused on both "better developer experience" and "flexibility" that would cover almost all ecosystems.
The study picks either incidence or death rates, presumably whichever fits the overlaid glyphosate usage line better.

Indeed the lines often fit well, but wouldn't you expect the death rate to lag behind the usage? Will glyphosate give you instant cancer that immediately kills you? Yeah, probably not.

Curiously, glyphosate usage rate significantly trails the death rate from Parkinson's, a slowly progressing disease. We must therefore conclude that Parkinson's causes glyphosate usage, not the other way around.

ZeroHedge is the type of site that will quickly be labelled alt-right, fake news etc. in reality they tend to just interpret events in much more extreme ways but still rely on largely factual sources. I find the commentary to be much more thought provoking than consensus outlets. Glad to see some fellow HN'ers peruse the site.
Any B2B idea should run 300/mo easily. Finding those businesses to sell to is the challenge.

But perhaps it's easier selling 300/mo to X businesses than selling to 5/mo to 60X consumers? You decide.

I'm OP's roommate and I was involved in this. We booked the place on short notice and came to see it the same day. It was advertised as a "penthouse" but in reality it was simply the top floor of a pretty decrepit ~50+ yo building, with bars on every window, and a filthy "pool". This is the view from the "penthouse".

Contrary to what Airbnb says in the screenshot, there was no "A/C" of any kind in the bathrooms (no, not even fans). The only A/C units were in the bedrooms, and they were small, sized for bedrooms. The host showed up and said that if we let the A/C in the bedrooms run for 20 minutes with the doors open and the fan strategically placed, the living room and kitchen would be "cold like a fridge".

We let it run for 30 minutes and were still sweating after that. Told him we couldn't stay because we work from home and the heat was just unbearable in the daytime during this hot season.

What pissed me off:

The host refused to refund us anything (which is why we reached out to Airbnb). Airbnb refunded ~USD 300, so the host took USD 480 from us for essentially visiting the place for 30 minutes. That's a $1000/hour occupation... pretty lucrative. Yes, we wasted their time, and an opportunity for someone else to book it, so I'd be totally fine with paying the nightly rate (USD 60) for even two nights. But not for over a week. It's just not fair by any stretch of the imagination. (Note that it's the week before Mexico's Independence Day, and the host bragged that the place will get occupied very soon if we don't book. Also, we booked same-day, and left same-day. How Airbnb considers that is inconveniencing the host USD 480, baffles me.)

Airbnb's rude, STFU, response:

This is the last that can be said on the subject.

This seems to be part of the training they give to support agents, because I saw the same phrasing in the famous How I Got Banned for Life from AirBnB post:

we consider this matter closed and will no longer reply to any inquiries regarding your account

The fact that Airbnb doesn't have anything more nuanced than "Yes A/C", "No A/C". How about "partial A/C"? How hard is it to implement that, Airbnb? It's one thing to have central A/C or heating, and a very different thing to have a heater in one room or a fan in another.

The Immortal and The Aleph by Borges are pretty awesome too.
All of the options you listed would result in wealth redistribution. Asset value inflation and collecting rent are how you maintain or increase the wealth/income gap, not giving away your money to make other people’s lives better/productive.
Indentation and semicolons don't impact the number of things your mind has to remember at one time. Nested classes are a problem as we're finally seeing with a bit of a backlash against OOP these days. XML is just markup and not a programming language so there's no "action" that needs to be carried around.

It's not the hierarchy itself that's the problem. The difficulty is remembering all that the hierarchy is doing before setting a chunk of it aside that causes the problem. Especially prefix trees.
I have a PhD in maths. Writing down every step is the only way to get things right and be able to verify that (essential for anything that actually matters). The best maths advice I ever got was a high school teacher (not even my teacher) looking at my work and telling me to write down more steps; suddenly my accuracy and speed got way better.

Maths ability varies widely, and I don't think being able to do things a couple of years earlier than your peers is that uncommon or really predicts your later achievements, except for the encouragement of early praise pushing you in that direction.

If you really want to be good at mental calculations, practice that. You haven't lost anything you can't regain. However, pen and paper is more accurate, more permanent, and can often be faster, though it feels slower because you're physically moving a lot. Your hatred is beyond futile, achieving nothing but hurting you and holding you back.
Those who know how Big Ag acts and nonetheless buy their products are to blame.

Their product marketing pages always remind me of those "kitchen nightmares" shows.

On this episode, an over-ambitious family restaurant decides to expand like crazy and ends up with a huge menu of stuff that the overworked chefs can't cook properly.

Some TV chef should be yelling at them for wasting the opportunity of a lifetime by ignoring good business sense, or something like that.
I wonder how much security issues relate to the data formats that are often used to exchange medical information. I believe northern American nations mostly use HL7, while European countries tend to prefer Dicom.

HL7 was around since 1987, while Dicom is older than TCP/IP I believe. I think requirements for data exchange fundamentally changed in the last 30 years and at least Dicom is just horrible to handle.

True, you could upgrade it with putting everything in a crypt container, but that is just a quick fix.

This is a case where I fully support software engineers that say that we need to fully reimplement these formats. It is good to have standards here, but many manufacturers of medical devices have their own proprietary adaptations anyway. It shouldn't mean to throw everything learned from these formats away. Just maybe it should all be reevaluated.

Not really sure how you're making the "empire" qualification. An empire by definition is not an entity which gets to make extraterritorial moves with impunity.

Just seems silly to try and cast the US as an "empire" here when all you're really saying is "the US is a very powerful nation".
I would pool the customers together, and not segregate them even though I know how, and find a way to charge everyone $10 a year whether they needed the $110 service or not.

Because I’m not a sociopath, and I don’t think of healthcare as a product just like kitcat bars, and I don’t think a civilized country should allow this to happen.

The moment you accept framing it like people are buying and selling kitcat bars, you accept misery and death that are completely avoidable in economically advanced countries.
Node-Red is a visual programming language and it is a joy to use.
I think you have an incorrect idea of "logic reasoning" if you think that that's a scientifically sound argument. To know whether this contaminated water will be insufficiently diluted in the ocean to cause problems, you definitely do need to use numbers. I mean, if it's diluted to a trillionth of the natural background radiation, then who cares?
The mission statement reads, in part:

> We’re hoping to grow OpenAI into such an institution. As a non-profit, our aim is to build value for everyone rather than shareholders. Researchers will be strongly encouraged to publish their work, whether as papers, blog posts, or code, and our patents (if any) will be shared with the world. We’ll freely collaborate with others across many institutions and expect to work with companies to research and deploy new technologies.

I have no idea if they live up to this but "GPT-2 is too dangerous to release" crackpottery suggests they at least sometimes don't.

These are the people who make people distrust science! "In 2011, Seneff began publishing articles on topics related to biology and medicine, an area in which she has no relevant qualifications or expertise, in low-impact, open access journals, such as Interdisciplinary Toxicology and eight papers in the journal Entropy between 2011 and 2015.[2][8]"

She's a COMPUTER SCIENCE researcher for Pete's sake!
This ruling isn't on the actual case. The ruling is about the injunction being upheld while the case is tried.

Funnily enough the judge has a similar concern:

>> I write separately to express my concern that “in some cases, parties appeal orders granting or denying motions for preliminary injunctions in order to ascertain the views of the appellate court on the merits of the litigation.”
USDA Pomological Watercolor Collection
If the Macan is a too large, that would mean that practically all family cars are too large.
The groups that have been quoted in the article were demanding a 'large SUV ban' even before this accident. Now they are using this accident to promote their agenda, conveniently leaving out that it wasn't a 'large SUV' that caused it. 'Porsche SUV' just sounds like a large SUV, because the Porsche Macan is relatively new and not as well-known as the Porsche Cayenne. The Cayenne is probably the most hated vehicle in Germany, at least in those circles.

HL7 is just text, if you're not sending it over SSL then it's arguably easier to decipher than a simple webpage when looking through the packets!

You're not describing health insurance firms here. They constantly innovate new reasons to delay, diminish, and forget about payments to providers. For small procedures, many providers charge cash patients less because they know they'll get paid when the service is provided. They do this even though it often violates contracts they've signed with insurance firms.

Porche Macan is just under 4.7m long and 2m wide.

That's actually slightly smaller than than, for example, an Audi A4, which most people don't consider a particularly big car.

By my standards (Oz) that's a pretty large vehicle!

When I was in Oz it felt every other car on the road was a huge pickup. You guys sure seem to love your HiLuxes.
That isn't PII in the sense that it's protected at that point.

It's not PII when a police officer says your name and address. It's only protected health information when someone who is governed by medical privacy laws does it, like a nurse.
Can you suggest a relevant nasty corner case?

Consider an unbounded input string (generally less than 1k, but sometimes more than 100k), a phone display large enough to display, say, 80-120 glyphs, and a mechanical abbreviation to a few hundred codepoints soon after input, before all expensive processing. What are the nasty corner cases?
Another angle to consider would be making pedestrian safety mandatory and setting standards, rather than waiting for vague promises from manufacturers.

Volvo created a “pedestrian air bag” years ago that inflated on the hood of the car when it detected what could be a pedestrian being struck.

They replaced that with systems that auto-brake at low speeds when they detect pedestrians or bicycles. Other manufacturers have this kind of tech too, but there are zero standards and no enforcement AFAICT.

Following The First Tenet of Domain Driven Design: Ubiquitous Language.

"Evans makes clear that using the ubiquitous language in conversations with domain experts is an important part of testing it, and hence the domain model. He also stresses that the language (and model) should evolve as the team's understanding of the domain grows."

Simply, all team members should be on the same page and have a clear understanding of the underlying (and evolving) domain model.

Please stop repeating this. Insurance companies do not "pay every time". Hospitals have to employ entire departments of RNs to argue with insurance firms that this procedure was justified and that test was necessary. Cash patients don't get to make that argument!
