This is the justification but is true in only the vanishingly rare case of the company whose activities are constrained by the bandwidth of the CEO, like Tesla. In other cases the CEO should be paying for the jet from his post tax income.
Perhaps they laugh because they think by "alien" you mean from outer space and unrelated to our earthly evolutionary history.

And to be pedantic, humans and octopuses (and bacteria for that matter) are all equally evolved, just for different niches.

Not sure why you're being downvoted.

This is correct to an extent, the surface of a mirror needs to be polished to a degree such that abnormalities in the lens are small relative to the wavelength being observed (I think it's the diffraction limit equation, not positive atm). Radio telescopes (with cm wavelengths) require much less precision than optical ones (with sub-micron wavelengths). This telescope, FAST, actually is made out of a collection of triangular (I think) sheets arranged into a kind of dome, if it were observing optical it would act like a disco-ball instead of a parabolic mirror. Arecibo is literally a hole in the ground with rocks and crap on the reflector.

This thing actually had "first light" observations with several holes in it from triangular sections that were fritzing just kind of fluttering in the breeze. The first radio telescopes were literally built out of post-coldwar trash just kind of rigged up in the back-yard. There's a major array going in in south Africa where the antennas are like christmas tree wires that are just kind of hammered into the ground, one of the PIs showed video at a colloquium I attended of his 10 year old kids setting them up. If anything in modern science can be called "low specification" it's radio telescopes.
Satellite phone is the only thing I can think of for communication.

Or perhaps ham radio would work, but you need power to run it, so your family would need some batteries. (I don't know if that's actually feasible. Can ham radio be run by batteries? If so, for how long?)
The whole idea of HTTP and it's huge win over other server protocols was that it moved session support from the server to the client. You are talking nonsense here. cookies were needed for session persistency eventually.

To elaborate a bit about the tech. De site is plain html and plain javascript. No node server just a heroku instance that host the GUN instance.

The website itself is very simple and uses MediaSource Extension https://www.w3.org/TR/media-source/ to make the streaming go smooth. This is often used by players that use dynamic bitrates for different network etc.. Such as HLS, Shaka player.

This is all brought together in this project. Webrtc is only used for getting the screen and microphone. There is no signaling stun server etc needed for this to work.

I have to come back to you about finding the IP address. I am not sure about this. Will ask the GUN community. Maybe you can explain why this case is interesting and for which cases?
Exactly. It's not so much a legal thing (note the use of "rules" vs "laws" in my earlier comment) as much as it is a practical thing. If you're a Tesla owner, it's not going to be a good experience if using Smart Summon results in your car getting stuck in a one-way lane. If you're the driver of a car that ends up face-to-face with a driverless Tesla that is going the wrong way, it's also going to be a bad experience. And if the Tesla does somehow get in a collision, I think you would have a hard time coming up with an excuse to your insurance company as to why your car was going against established traffic flow.

That's so rare in practice that you should just write it out fully. If it's happening frequently in your app, you should probably rethink your architecture. As time goes on, I've realized why people think asserts are code smells of their own.
For it to eat the entire sun, you are correct.

But for it to destabilize the orbit of planets through the orbit of a binary system, it is quite plausible once the blac hole has gained sufficient mass for it to count as a binary system and not simply a planetary mass black hole orbiting a stellar mass sun[1].

I'm personally tired of the president having almost the power of a king. It's high time we split the office into a rank choice election where the top three have to share it. It would create more drama perhaps but much less political wandering per election.

I have used and liked CarPlay and was put off by tesl not having it... until I tried Tesla’s. CarPlay is essential for routing around the horrible crap put out by most carmakers but the Tesla ui is awesome. It’s big, it’s fast, and it’s 100% focused on automotive use. I’d still like the option, but I can’t say I miss it.
Does smart summon have a mechanism to avoid sleeping pets (or children) lying under the wheel base? Is that just the 'operator's responsibility?

Again, please read the posts you are responding to. You're not reading my posts. I'm not your enemy here. You're just taking your anger at other people out on me.

If you would read my posts, you would see that what I'm proposing is a mixed office space with open areas for those who work best that way (like me), and private areas for people who work best that way (like you).

1. I'm definitely for you having your own, private office if that's how you work best.

2. An open office with enforced silence is the worst of both worlds. The extroverts can't work effectively because they can't collaborate, and it's really never quite quiet enough for the introverts. This kind of "compromise" means nobody is happy.

3. Being in the open office isn't just about talking with your pair, it's about being able to collaborate with people outside your pair too.

Ultimately, if you feel like you gave it your all until the end, whether you made the correct decisions or not, then in my opinion it was a good journey. Think of everything you learned in the process and how it's helped you since then! The opinions of people who don't understand that don't matter.
You just have to find a compromise. I tumble dry my undershirts, underwear, etc, but line dry my button downs, sweaters, hoodies, jeans, etc. I wash those less often anyway, and line drying them saves money because those are the pricier items in my closet.

I've worked for CEOs like Adam, tho with way less access to cash. Ambition is good only if you can pull it off, otherwise like like the greatest warrior poet of our generation Dominic Toretto would say: it don't matter if it's by an inch or a mile, losing's losing.

This dude had a plan, had big energy, earned trust, spent like a king, and came up short some miles and inches. He was building We to be a holdings company since the late-2010's-era, a la Zuck with late-2010's-era Facebook or a la Mayer with mid-2010-era Yahoo.

This is what a WeWork tech stack would have been:

For construction:
* Case - property development management software
* Fieldlens ($12.6MM raised) - construction site management software

For space management:
* Euclid ($43.6MM raised) - space tracking software
* Welkio - lobby digital sign-in software
* Waltz - digital lock software
* SpaceIQ - office management software
* Teem ($100MM buyout) - room booking software
* Manage by Q - office vendor solution management software
* Spacious ($9MM raised) - restaurant downtime

For business management:
* Conductor - digital ads spam software
* Unomy - sales marketing spam software

For training management:
* Meetup ($200MM buyout) - event and group management software
* Flatiron School - coding school
* MissionU - fake college

For expansion:
* Naked Hub ($400MM buyout) - Chinese wework clone
* Spacemob - Singapore wework clone
* The Wing ($32MM investment) - Women wework clone

For fun:
* Wavegarden ($12MM investment)

All of this prob has been a $2B spend. But Steve Jobs he ain't with the integration so it's all loosely organized and disjointed. But Adam's at least Steve Job's esque enough to convince Ashton Kutcher to call all this pile of parts a tech behemoth.

If you'd rather attribute the situation to incompetence then we can say that the food scarcity exists because the local government supports the tourism industry over agriculture, alotting more land and water resources and collapsing what was once a sustainable food system... accidentally.

When you use words like "hilarious" and "hah" I feel annoyed, because I need a little more respect and acknowledgement for the work I am doing in horticulture, food security out here in the pacific. I have a hard time listening to what you are trying to say when you are typing laughter at me. Do you want to try and share your thoughts without implying that you think my world is a joke?
The "interpretation" that you are using of QM is just one of many proposed interpretations. Specifically, you are referring to an interpretation called the "Von Neumann–Wigner interpretation". It's not an interpretation that I buy into.

The only interpretations that really make sense to me are objective collapse theories and the Many Worlds interpretation. For neither of these interpretations does human consciousness cause wave function collapse.

If you want to know more about the various interpretations of QM, there's a Wikipedia page on them here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpretations_of_quantum_mec...

If you'd like to know even more, here's a good book on the topic:

It also enables high level manager to visit stores and come back in the same day. Or visit 3 stores in two days.

So those same managers are more inclined to go actually visit the stores they are in charge of. Imagine having to visit 5 or 6 walmarts across different small cities, doing it commercially would take a week or more.

That book is of an era and hasn't been particularly relevant in quite awhile. The rise of classes as prototype sugar made a lot of the navel-gazing of object creation mostly moot. The rise of rigorous linting took care of the rest.

> I'm trying to find more durable shoes to wear for casual wear & walking that actually last.

I've been pretty happy with my New Balance 990 shoes. Has lasted me years longer than any other shoes I bought. These are made in the US so I don't know if the quality is better than their other models or even other brands. I've never bought expensive shoes until I bought these but now I'm sold.
My opinion: Heterosexual women default to seeking good providers because if pregnancy happens, whether planned or not, that can make it impossible to sustain a hard charging career for the woman.

Pregnancy can be debilitating. Women are more likely than men to take time off work to care for the new baby. Breastfeeding is done by women.

These are practical issues that make it hard to not feel on some deep level like you really need a man who is capable of earning enough money to support you, him and a child if things do not go according to plan. If she is play the primary breadwinner role, gets pregnant and things go sideways, then what?

(Opinion of a woman. N=1, though.)
> > If you're not applying for a line of credit, I don't think credit bureaus such as Equifax or "Transperian" (which I assume is a portmanteau of TransUnion and Experian) will base anything on that data, since it's so obviously easy to manipulate.

Okay, could you cite this, please? I've been very clear that I'm just speculating, but if you're so sure maybe you have some insider information I don't?

My credit reports don't have my up-to-date address, so whatever they are doing is an awful way to maintain an up-to-date address.

Not quite, the average startup probably has significantly more than 1 founder.

So, it’s clear more people get funding than tenure. However, difficultly really is a function of the success rate of each track and the amount of investment they make in it. Still, for the average collage freshman tenure is likely much harder.
I think they stopped doing the service center wifi thing. It used to be if you just parked in front of the service centers you'd get the update right away, so of course too many people were doing that.

Now you can just select the option to get the software update right away though.
Ah, that would make more sense.
But what if I want to have a group, shared meeting in a private jet? Hardly forward thinking, WeWork!
I'm also curious whether there are problems that Mathematica can solve but this system cannot.

More importantly, I'm curious if there are problems that Mathematica knows it can't solve but for which this system silently gives wrong answers.

Another interesting extension to the experiments would be a longer timeout -- 30 seconds seems a bit arbitrary and quite low for a CAS. However, I suspect the reason for that time out is the fact that Mathematica licenses are insanely expensive. Otherwise the 5,000 (actually, only 500) test problems could be run for at least a few minutes at pretty trivial cost. Maybe there's a Mathematica employee here who can suggest Wolfram donate some compute (or at least limited licenses) for a small evaluation cluster. Especially if the authors decide to do follow-up work.

In any case, this is really interesting work. I think deep learning for symbolic mathematics is going to be a super interesting area to watch for a least the next few years. Good work, anonymous author(s).

Large fines can—and probably should—be relative.

Edit: I’m not sure I’ve ever heard anyone suggest “regulatory capture” as a reason to not levy fines against companies who held breached data. HN discussions on this topic seem to trade in the same repeated points—“identity theft” is bank failure/fraud masquerading as the customer’s problem; there should be consequences and/or fines for the party who held the data; the frequency of breaches should make us rethink how private PII really is; etc.
Ask HN: Is there a better alternative to Docker?
My company has been making use of Docker for a little while now and when it works it's great. Each developer runs their own OS as they choose. Most of us are on Mac but a few on Windows. Docker can be finicky on Mac--frustratingly so--but on Windows it's a nightmare.

Is there some alternative that works well across different platforms?

EDIT: To answer the question asked by @moondev; we mainly use Docker to mimic production environments as much as possible for local development. For example; if we have a client running a web application using Apache with PHP and PostgreSQL on AWS EC2 and RDS respectively we'll build two containers to match the versions of those products.
Had one company paid me for my time developing their test interview app. That was the first and only experience I had. Took a day to do, but I made sure it was really polished.
Right. And then you meet someone that doesn't meet your innate "affectional preference" and what do you do, leave? (Yes!)

What's funny is I didn't make any value judgements when I proposed a verified physical characteristics site. I never said that it's better to like fat or thin, or tall or short, or blonde or redhead, or bald or hairy, black or white. There's someone for everyone and that's great!

But it's not OK to lie about it, and hope the other person will overlook the fact that you are a liar or that you'll change your mind "once you get to know him/her"

I think my comment is going to be pointless, but... As a male, I would love to take time off work to care for the baby. Only after a minimum 6 months of breastfeeding, ideally 2 years with appropriate complementary feeding, of course. That said, if we can afford it, I would love to be there at all times. :P These years matter so much for the child's development. Plus, it is not like I would not be there for them when I am off work, but yeah.

The idea is that you'd use the loan, and pay it just like you normally would. But instead of giving the lender your actual address you give them some other address, essentially indistinguishable from a regular data entry error.

I can't see anyone getting in trouble for this unless they're creating fake credit profiles or not paying their debts, the credit bureau dbs are chock-full of garbage data from garbage sources.

It’s seems like they went all in on AMD a few years ago, so I assume they have a bunch of long term agreements that lower the price?
