U.E. has already treaty with many countries or others unions (like UE), so it might be pretty easy. Also looks at economical situation in UE, they are not in a situation where they can be in economical conflict with (or at least isolated from) a country like UK
Not true. Step 1- open accounts at Schwab and then IB. Put in say a complex butterfly order at the exact same time at both brokers and see the difference in price you get. It adds up to millions pretty quick.
Right they make all their money on margin. Most people are not trading a lot- but if you do- you will get fleeced- especially with any kind of a complex order.
Oh please. As a former citizen of a country where the name of a local currency was used for jokes only, I can assure you - noone in their right mind would exchange the local awful shit currency for any of the existing cryptocurrencies. People would rather buy 5 fridges and three tv-screens or euro/dollars (and there is always black market in the toughest of the toughest dictatorships out there) anytime. When I was reading Mr. Antonopoulos about giving advice to his mother in Greece to invest in Bitcoin I was laughing like crazy (2018, bitcoin falling fast and steady).

There are two great lies (dreams??) crypto shills: 1) replacement of the 3rd world country dying currencies and 2) 3rd world country unbanked people desperately waiting for someone to "bank" them.

The period of the vertical orbit is closer to 1/3 that of the planar orbit: roughly 70 million years, versus about 225 million years for the azimuthal ("horizontal") period. Since the periods aren't in an integer ratio (and you wouldn't generally expect them to be for galactic orbits), it's also not neatly closed like the schematic suggests.

There's a difference between giving past figures a pass for horrible things, and invalidating them via nit-picking.

Life is not black and white, so wanting to see saints instead of flawed humans who made the world a bit or a lot better is probably not a great approach. Everybody will have some flaw if you look hard enough. People can also change. Maybe they would have benefited from growing up in a different environment. Breaking out of the way everybody around you thinks is hard enough in one area.

Judging someone as a whole is pretty tricky, too. Generally this is left to deities. Is it possible to celebrate the good things someone has done without it being a full endorsement of everything they ever did and said?
>Because the amount of goods and labor required to build a house (that can be lived in for decades) is typically a lot more than what an individual can save up for in any reasonable amount of time

That works both ways though, the reason housing is so expensive is because borrowing is so cheap and easy. The cost of land, materials and regulation has expanded to match the available funds.
All the unconditional love you experience and the pure joy and pride of experiencing the little person grow up is simply not something I can explain. I can explain that you will spend a lot of money and time on them, worry a lot and you will lose sleep over all the worry you have.

Is it worth it? I'm obviously biased, so my answer is to be taken with a grain of salt.

Told the last Google recruiter that contacted me "No, I've been through your interview process once years ago, I'm not subjecting myself to that again."

I'm not sure why so many companies insist on the days-long torture interviews (I've been through several), but I know they're not necessary to find good people.

I noticed your website has all kinds of fun little bugs. Presentation is important. Specially if you are trying to sell me on a web app. If your website is the first impression make sure it is polished and functional.
Can Bitcoin Resist Google’s Quantum Supremacy?
I don't see anything disturbing there. In fact, having double standards is far more disturbing to me, a mindset which can allow a lot of self-justifiable amoral behavior.

Historical figures are what they are - part of history, nobody is/should be changing that. But if one wants to look up to somebody these days, have them as some sort of role model, well then they better be up to current (and ideally even future) standards.

This way, life and morals are relatively simple, pure and hard to bend. Which might not serve some types of personalities very well, but that's another topic and frankly their own (self) fight
Because we laud them for their undeniable achievements.

Criticizing with current criteria of acceptable behavior is just an ad hominem.
That's not the goal of markets. You don't get to have the Universal market.

A market is a way to organize a group of people in a decentralized way, but its existence and correct operation requires a different, centralized group that manages it. Market participants are decentralized, market regulators are not. Now, the solution for the "what if I don't want centralization in the market regulation space?" problem is recursion. You create a market for markets.

What happens if you don't centralize? You get something like global trade, which is a meta-market for national trade markets (which are centralized). Global trade is decentralized - in the sense that men with most guns tell everyone else what to do, because there's no central authority to prevent that.
And aren't 'show HN's supposed to have an easy free way for people to give it a go?

Well, crypto is a scam and you better be on the side which gets rich from it.

Already in 2015 Washington Post summed it up:

> - Hey, do you want to hear about the future? It's a digital currency called Bitcoin that lets you spend or move your money online without paying any fees.

> - Sounds great. How does it do that?

> - Well, Bitcoin saves you money by making transactions irreversible.

> - So ... if I get scammed, I got scammed? There's nothing I can do about it?

> - Yes.

> - Okay, but is it at least easy to use?

> - The thing is, I don't actually use it. I just hoard it. I'm waiting for some greater fools to push up the price by using theirs.

> - Oh.

> - Yeah. So you should buy some Bitcoins and use yours.

Preston Byrne's great post two years later https://prestonbyrne.com/2017/12/08/bitcoin_ponzi/ suggested to call it a Nakamoto scheme, drawing parallels to chain distribution schemes:

> As used herein a “chain distributor scheme” is a sales device whereby a person, upon condition that he make an investment, is granted a license or right to solicit or recruit for profit or economic gain one or more additional persons who are also granted such license or right upon condition of making an investment and may further perpetuate the chain of persons who are granted such license or right upon such condition.

What is amazing in this new kind of scam is the lack of central scammers and certain actors can easily exploit the culpability of ordinary people. That's what this is, setting up various vehicles to separate fools from their money, and, of course, having a stake in the operation which does the separation. By all means this should be illegal and eventually it will be. Already Facebook's Libra attempt was met by a very stern no by financial regulators in various European countries. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-facebook-cryptocurrency-f...

Excuse me: the UK basically threatened Iceland unless British debt took priority for refund, bullied them and made Icelandic citizens wear the consequences. You cannot say Iceland did not bail out the banks, they nationalised significant parts of the bank debt to get rid of a problem.
The good parts and bad parts matter because of their contrast with the prevailing mores of their time.

to be unhappy that all of their views were not ahead of their time is to fail them for not being a moral singularity.

Such criticism is illogical, as it’s imposing an unfair and unreachable standard on all people.
With out an IDE is a bit of a redflag - all developers need to be able to hack with just a cli, yes its not ideal but some times you have to do it.

A very experienced dep/ops in extrimis should be able to hack code even if there is no installed editor - I have recovered a stuck systems by editing config files with awk.
I hadn't heard of this before but it appears to still run Android :(
> disallowing people to install software of their own choice on their own devices.

Yet allowing anything to be installed is the cesspit of Windows virus laden software.

That said, I buy Android because I can side-load if I choose to.

Unless the person looking for a role model is insane, they will look at the parts of the person that they admire to emulate. Not every aspect and behavioral trait.

They just hope that Google will keep pouring infinite money into making their JavaScript engine faster.

And they never kept track of their dependencies in the first place. That's the job of some build tool. Whatever it pulls in is fine.
Well, HN is pretty weird for the web of today. That's also why it's so nice to use it. I wish more sites had simple, lean UI that let the text communicate its message, instead of being interactive marketing brochures.

And it’s a trend now to highlight those aspects/speeches and not highlight the change in his beliefs and maturity- essentially Gandhi is a story of someone who overthrew the stereotypes of race shackling his mind.

But if you present only the first part of the story though, it’s easy to diminish him as racist.
> They thought they where cool toys.

Well they are - in the sense that the practical value is very limited and there are better alternatives in every regard (even in the ideal scenario where you live in a place with excellent riding conditions and limited parking which benefits a bike - a scooter is going to give you easier riding since it's automatic, less maintenance, more storage capacity and will be plenty fast for commuting if you get 300/600cc ones).

My bike is a toy - it's just a dangerous one.
Interesting. Here is the actual paper, maybe resubmit? https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.01738.pdf
What Google giveth, NPM taketh away.
I love writing software, but I think there's something about the psychology of it that is really unnatural.

Not long ago we were just hominids hanging out in small bands, and our psychological sense of worth and reward were tied to our capacity to find and kill something big enough for everyone to eat. Or perhaps to turn that mammoth into shoes and clothes to survive the winter.

I wonder if this system fires the same way when we're coding. The contribution we offer is valued by the market and desperately needed by society but it's very abstract compared to bringing home a fresh mammoth.

We may be solving hard problems for great compensation, but as far as our subconsciousness is concerned we're just sitting at our desks all day long making symbols dance on screen. Its the polar opposite of the lives humans used to lead.

Not that I'd want to turn the clock back. I'm very fond of coding, modern medicine and hot showers. Though I do wonder if mammoth meat was any good...
Intel eASIC, an intermediary technology between FPGAs and standard-cell ASICs
I'm utterly bored, I changed jobs a year ago because of family reasons. The company is great in a lot aspects (team culture, benefits, technology). I got asigned a project where I did a successful POC which was already shown the costumers and management. But after the POC the project is now on hold, there is no decision from managment since 4 months. I still have weekly calls with the PM, which tells me how he wants the project to continue, but rumor is he'll change positions shortly. My boss won't assign me to another project as he doesn't know how the project continues and wants to hold me back as resource. So since months I'm dabbling around trying to support my teammembers with random scripts and tools to do at least something useful. I've got an offer from another local company which I'll probably will take, just to do something useful again.
> Those books are actually good but they are on every single list and even worse, some "modern classics" are actually complete dreck. You might impress your developer friends but you won't advance yourself.

I don't get it. If these are good books and you have not read them, how will you not advance yourself by reading them?
It is NOT mandatory. This is courtesy of the press but there are no laws or regulations.
Back then programming was basically applied mathematics, a field with many women. Today programming is gluing together components in order to build systems which is much more similar to engineering, a field with few women.

There are still many women among those who program mathematics (statisticians etc), just that they are usually not called programmers. Also there is much less demand for people who can program math than people who can glue together libraries and create crud apps, so even if all math programmers are included in the statistics they would get dwarfed by the app programmers.

Source of the combination mathematics and statistics being a gender balanced field, above 40% women: https://www.nsf.gov/statistics/2017/nsf17310/digest/fod-wome...

Engineering always being male dominated, around 15% women: https://www.nsf.gov/statistics/2017/nsf17310/digest/fod-wome...

Such a person is always a person of extremes. The past just allowed for things to be hidden more then they can be now.

> Gandhi already didn't meet the criteria for acceptable behavior during his lifetime though.

That is always a matter of context. If you ask the British at the time no aspect of his met the criteria of acceptable behavior.
I'm sorry, I don't understand the point you're trying to make here. You say it's better now that we have walled gardens but then you make a list of all the players that are circumnavigating these anyway. This to me sounds like the worse of both worlds. Some people are still doing whatever they want and at the same time we're prevented to install software from different sources.
I agree that at some level it prevents everyone to do it, meaning you have to have at least some basic knowledge to do that but that doesn't seem much from a freedom/security standpoint.
For the most part and for most users, those walled gardens are nice but I still think users should have the option to install whatever they want. Put on seven disclaimers about it, but let me do it since, well, I paid for that device.
I think it's quite healthy to be able to discuss say, a person's legacy, from different angles rather than restrict discussion to only the good parts.

> 2. Ethics

The ethic ends where the money-loss (or missing profit) begins. I don't understand why so many people are surprised when Apple (or whatever) pulls something like this.

I don't mean to be rude (I don't know you, where you're from, what's your age), but I though at this point in life people would be already aware that ethics doesn't fit very much into corporatism culture.

In simple words, they will (at very least) plainly lie to you in order to make you buy their products. Every one of them.

Or have you ever heard a company saying "Yes, our product is inferior to the competition", "Yes, we will sell your data", "Yes, if avoiding it gives us much problem, we will side with higher powers against you" or "Yes, we're burning forests to give you cheaper burgers"?

They'll picture them as nice and responsible, but at the end of the day what matter most is dollars. They'll never lose.
Thank you. I think it's obvious second list should've been it, but I was half sleeping so...
This is a bit of an odd answer, even in a question that expects odd answers. That is because it sounds so normal, yet I have Googled for it and almost no one advocates for it. They do maybe advocate for it in terms of design, but I mean in making actual static websites.

Enter Google Slides: the product for your uncle Joe and aunt Lysa to create their own websites without knowing how to code!

I even have an example website for you that I made as it is a project that I'm working on in my free time. I already remade the website in actual HTML/CSS/JS but I was simply curious how well Google Slides would work. IMO, it has a thing or two over Sketch (such as displaying GIFs, having links) since I made the actual layout with Sketch, and then redid everything with Google Slides to do a side by side comparison (I went too far with this :P).

There are a few things to consider:

1. Every page needs to be made in its own slide show as you cannot have different document sizes.

2. You will be stuck with a slide viewer, but I figured for the industrious fellow, you could simply inject some JavaScript that disables that whole viewer when you iframe your Google Slides website.

3. There are zooming issues because the pages are of different document sizes.

4. The fact that you need to define document sizes is noteworthy in itself.

So yea, not super duper practical, unless you aren't a web designer and simply want a simple profile page online, but definitely weird :D
