If we work in the same place and if I consistently and intentionally call you a different name than your actual name, I'm harassing you, I'm bullying you, and if the place we work at has decent HR policies, I will get fired.

So I am absolutely compelled to call you your actual name, I'm compelled to talk in a certain way if I want to keep my job, and this isn't totalitarian or evil, it's simply having manners and treating each other with respect.
Heh.
I just found out last week my hosting provider had put my websites on cloudflare for me.

They are not my hosting provider anymore.

How did I find out?

Traffic to the sites (all legitimate) fell circa 75% overnight. (non english sites)
> I can not remember how many times I lost my paper because [the mac] would just reboot out of memory.

This is less of an Apple problem and more of a 1990's problem. I often had painful nights where I'd lose hours of work on Documents and PowerPoints because my Windows 98 either froze or crashed.

Ask HN: Grad School for Startup?
I am new here so I am sorry if I am not positing in the correct section or something like that. I couldn't find a post on this exactly, so I decided to just ask the question: How much could being in a grad school program for CS (likely AI) from a top tier CS school help in the creation of a successful startup? I am currently a college student whose eventual goal is to create a tech startup. My grades are decent and I am still in a position where I believe I could make it into well-known CS graduate program if I tried. The problem is that I feel that I have to go all in on either doing internships (and getting industry experience), or doing research, but not both at the same time. I have noticed that creating a startup on the topic that you are researching as a grad school student is a solid way to create a startup. Also, there are benefits that come with working under a professor (such as top tier connections), but I was wondering if these two reasons provide a strong enough benefit to try to get into grad school instead of getting industry experience. Also, I was wondering if anyone has a rough estimate of how many Y-Combinator startup founders have actually been grad school students or if most have just received a bachelors degree. I couldn't find this information on the internet no matter how hard I've tried... Thank you!

> For finance etc., I'm not sure locked doors & frosted glass are sufficient if they're embedded with other offices and there's lots of intermingling foot traffic in the area, but I suppose with relative few additional precautions it could work

I know for certain that shared office space for lawyers is common. I actually visited such a space just a week ago. This particular space was hideous and depressing, but many 1-3 attorney law firms were operating right next to each other.

At least for law, there are certain ethical obligations everyone needs to follow, and if you break them, you can lose your license, get fined, and in extreme cases, face jail time. For security, in addition to frosted glass and locked doors, maybe WeWork could devote certain areas of a space to certain professions, i.e., this floor is for lawyers, this one is for accountants, etc. Only the worst and most unethical lawyers would break into another law firm's records, and there are plenty of existing processes for dealing with that.

The big point here is that with a bit of tweaking, WeWork could service just about any office-based company. There is a currently small, but fast growing demand for the type of office culture they are promoting. It's plausible that in 20 years, the "startup" style workspace will be the norm, rather than a niche millenial perk. It's not clear if WeWork will ultimately succeed, but they have a huge head start and seem to be tapped into what a quickly growing segment of office culture is demanding.

First of, all politicians are greedy, lazy self interested assholes incapable of actually accomplishing anything of real substance of their own two hands. They just have different flavors of bullshit. So you pretending that just blame Republicans and the world is a better place, yea, ok. Its worked out so well for govs in history to blame another party and declare all politics should be based on ours. It's already a waste of an argument.

That and you put the cart before the horse. It's always been to cut spending first so rev wouldn't need to increase.
'Quantum effects' are already exploited in analog components. TFET's work by modulating quantum tunneling. Zener reverse breakdown in Zener diode is also quantum effect. Esaki diode uses quantum effects.

Unfortunately just because the single component relies on quantum effects does not have anything to do with quantum speedup in computation.

Quantum computation exploits entanglement in larger scale than normal. The whole computational state must be entangled quantum state. Separated quantum effects result just classical computer. The quantum circuit must be carefully arranged so that the interference pattern yields the result you want.
You calling this a "bug" makes it sound like you expect Cloudflare to violate your privacy by tracking which websites you've visited in order to determine that you're not a threat. It sounds like the point of Privacy Pass is the only information it gives Cloudflare is that you've solved a Captcha recently but otherwise provides no information about where you did it (beyond the fact that it's a Cloudflare property).

Given the fact that they've resorted to providing an extension to do this, this suggests that they've deliberately engineered their services to not have access to that data internally, and that's a good thing.
>> For now, I’ll keep eating like my grandparents ate - you know, real food.

One little problem with that is that your grandparents probably didn't eat what my grandparents ate. I'm guessing you're from a majority English-speaking country, the US, or UK, etc. I'm Greek. Our traditional cuisine is choke-full of strictly vegan dishes that are absolute staples [1]. Only of course no Greek would dream of calling those dishes "vegan". They are simply "food". And, I dare say, they are "real" food, the kind of food that grandma would make, as opposed to the stuff one can find in fast food joints etc.

The same goes for the "300,000 years of human evolution eating meat". Considering how far and wide humans have ranged during our evolution, figuring out what an average human ate would be very tricky. On the one hand, you have the diets of the peoples of the Arctic who eat predominantly meat from seals and caribou and the like. On the other hand, you have the diets of people in the Indian subcontinent who eat mostly pulses.

The bottom line is we've always been omnivores and we cant eat only meat any more than we can eat only plants. And we can't look at the plates of a few million people who have settled down in one part of the world and ignore the rest, who live all over the rest of the planet.

_________________

[1] Rather than me giving a list of Greek cuisine dishes with no meat or animal fasts etc in them, here's a blog post by a vegan touring Greek:

https://www.thenomadicvegan.com/the-nomadic-vegans-guide-to-...

The list includes spanakopita and xoriatiki (Greek salad) that are normally prepared or served with feta cheese as are many of the other dishes. Greek cuisine is not vegan, but a lot of it is lacto- ovo- pescaterian.

Note again that the dishes in the list above are staples- the kind of dish the average Greek would eat a few times a year.
I was once riding in a cab, ranting about how private cars should be banned in NYC, and the driver spoke up and said that no one who drives in the city wants to drive there—they do it because they have to. They do it because many neighbors within the greater metro area aren’t severed by any form of public transportation.
Yeah this works. If you're going to setup AlgoVPN might as well set it up on multiple locations (which I speculate is probably going to cost you n times more, given the n number of locations you choose).

AlgoVPN works great regardless of provider. It's more secure and private than public VPNs (not to mention fast).

This comparatively to stuff like ExpressVPN where I had to go through the aforementioned hurdles.
Its a Face thing. You cant not speak up when your students expect their Sifu to 'stand up to the bully'. You cant deny the dude a fight after he shows in your dojo with cameras.
It won't run Linux (no MMU)

How are processes isolated from one another if there is no MMU? Is there some other form of memory protection? That doesn't seem likely?

Not having process isolation really limits the applicability of the chip.
I've thought about it many times, but it's hard to walk away from the money. I'd have to start at zero in any other field, and to reach even half the salary in another standard professional career, I'd have to go to school for a few years. If I had any business ideas or an entrepreneurial spirit, I could try to set out on my own, but that's unlikely. In lieu of going insane from the tedium and politics of a software career (not that other careers are any better in this regard), I take a lot of time off; usually about a year every three years. I always go back to software, though, because it's easy. I'm tempted to do something completely different for a quarter of the salary, like become a dive instructor. Beats sitting behind a desk writing the same web app for the 50th time and dealing with sprint planning meetings.

From my perspective Google is far worse. I don't ever see Cloudflare's Captchas but I get Google's all the damn time, because I try to avoid Google properties. They intentionally punish people that aren't regularly using their products.

In other word, "real" learning is hard, it takes work, it's not fun.

-- The quote is about active learning, learning that involves the student in the education process. I don't think the subjective rating of that as "not fun" is a given. Rather, I think this subjective impression from the entire context of a student's activities.

It's pretty standard to expect "engaged" students to be happier than disengaged students. But students who are pressured to be engaged but don't engage are most unhappy of all. And today, students are confronted with a lot of easy, disengaged "junkfood" entertainment and are often working many hours a week along with school (or simply work endless hours of homework, etc). Under those circumstances, sure, learning that pushes the student to participate might get negative reviews. But I don't that justifies defining participatory learning "not fun" ipso-facto.
I believe that is done using old-fashioned lies and bullshit ... not LSD.
Oh I love that number pad. And the whole thing is pretty stylish.
> it is unfeasible to expect society to shape itself around coddling that person's beliefs

What indication do you have that a majority of the "society" in question (Stack Overflow) has a problem with addressing people in the manner they prefer?

In other words, have you considered the possibility that you are the one with an opinion or belief that runs contrary to what this "society" expects of its members?

If so, are you expecting to be coddled?

And opens the network to abuses Tor was meant to protect against. If proof-of-destination is built into the network then that is a huge step towards invalidating the main benefit of using a VPN -- you don't want someone (your local authority) knowing where you've been. Current VPNs sort-of work by not being in your local jurisdiction. Decentralizing it makes it easier to attack.
Taking public transportation in the bay area is incredibly stressful. I've had people try to fight me. I've had people threaten to stab me. I've had people smoke meth on the same car as me. Hell, last year one of my friends was robbed at gunpoint on bart. If these services were run by a private company, they would be shut down for safety violations.

I much prefer cars because it means I don't have to worry about vagrants, crazy people, and generally annoying assholes (such as those who play their music out of speakers instead of using headphones).
Taiwan and Tibet are part of China, but has a deal to keep the governments mostly separate until a certain date. China has made some efforts to make the changes gradual. There has been some resistance to the changes, but they are largely exaggerated or directed and paid for by the West. The U.S. official behind the murderous Contras in South America now heads a program that's paid at least $29 million to HK terrorists. Having read the CIA documents that instructed the contras to destabilize and overthrow South American states, I have no doubt there is effectively anti-China Contras/terrorists receiving the same or similar instructions and training. China is using it's power to dramatically improve parts of the world that the US has become dependant on exploiting. The West is very interested in creating a barrier between China and the Pacific to limit it's access to trade with the Americas and elsewhere. Thankfully China has many contingency plans for this and Trump's off-putting style of diplomatic relations may lose the US from friends. A better world could emerge with China's leadership, but HK, Taiwan and elsewhere may suffer attacks on civilians from US-backed thugs, and of course damage to infrastructure designed to hurt their economies. America's track record in this has not been great, and I doubt their strategy against China is fought with even more short-comings.
Not competent on Ivis but UMAP is very good at making sure that points that are close in the original space are close in the output space.

When you want to perform some sort of clustering on top of the dimensionality reduction its a very useful property.

Note that is it very common to get rid of 90% of the dimensionality with a PCA and then to apply something like UMAP on top to improve speed (and because PCA can be trusted to keep the relevant information for later postprocessig which cannot be said of other techniques).
As I described on another reply, SpreadOn not only supports a tree structured format, but also has tags for referring to entire sheets by name, for declaring grids of identically-typed data, for referring to named regions and extracting subsets of them, and compactly defining tables of repeating structures, which you can mix on a case-by as they make sense. (You can't embed a grid in another grid since it requires more than one cell, but you can make a grid of sheet references, since the sheet name only takes one cell and can be put into a grid.)

There is no "one best way" to represent JSON data in spreadsheets, because JSON data comes in all sizes and shapes, so SpreadON tries to support many different useful formats that you can link together, with a simple straightforward syntax that can be easily extended without breaking existing documents.
> From reading the comments on this story, it sounds like there are already (profitable) competitors like Spaces that are easily copying the WeWork office format. If this is the case, it doesn’t sound like WeWork has much of a moat.

Maybe in the long term (10+ years) you're right, but today, the vast majority of offices were designed over a decade ago, and have not kept up with modern trends. WeWork, and their competitors, have a huge amount of headroom to grow.

I doubt the WeWork copy-cats really concern WeWork, their real challenge is to convince companies in more traditional offices that moving to newer workspace culture and design is worthwhile and necessary to stay competitive. If they are successful here, WeWork (and their competitors) can get vastly larger than they are today. Over the long term, as this industry matures, WeWork can buy out much of their competition and the industry will consolidate.
I'd be interested to see numbers on that (e.g. what percentage of cars are coming from which locations). There are people poorly served by transit, but Manhattan also has a lot of fairly wealthy people driving, or even being chauffeured, on routes that have perfectly usable transit that they'd just rather not use. Car ownership in NYC (45% overall) is much higher among wealthier than poorer people, and especially so in Manhattan (22%). Those 22% of Manhattanites who own cars are also the ones who lobby hardest for pro-car policies, get angry when street parking is removed to make room for bus lanes or bike lanes, etc.
I don't see what is there to elaborate. Humanity is evolving, and OP thinks it is an important force shaping the world today.

Interesting approach. The difficulty, of course, lies in how to get students to actually read the lecture notes, aka do their homework, but the principle seems sound enough to me.

In one of the classes I’ve taught we had a similar approach where we had students do a homework assignment beforehand where they would encounter the very problem that he material in the lecture would address. It did seem to make the students who actually did their homework more attentive.
China likely trying to ease the transition.
A dozen (!) pages listing the contributors, then an abstract which ends with the paragraph quoted below which essentially says it's more powerful and wth vague aims.

I hope the intended audience aren't political and financial decision makers who are otherwise laymen on the subject.

Presumably this is aimed at fellow scientists? What's the goal of the document? What is the specific Higgs-equivalent target of the proposed collider? I didn't read further tbh, I wasn't encouraged by the first few pages, but then I'm not a physicist so perhaps that isn't intended.

From the abstract:

the FCC-hh design aims at significantly
extending the energy frontier to 100 TeV. Its unprecedented centre-
of-mass collision energy will make the FCC-hh a unique instrument
to explore physics beyond the Standard Model, offering great direct
sensitivity to new physics and discoveries.
Something I've learned over the past 3 years or so is that when you have Infrastructure as Code, you get Infrastructure by Coders. This is incredibly empowering and useful, but sometimes little details sneak into the system because the folks writing the code don't have any experience managing the systems that have been so neatly abstracted. Or, as could be the case here, they choose to simplify the interface by making a number of policy decisions by default...such as make before break when revising DNS A records.
This is one of the reasons why this craft and the Airbus vahana craft have at least eight motors and propellers.

Serious camera carrying octocopters for filming are strongly preferred over quad and hexacopters. They often carry $60,000 RED or Arri camera+lens combos. In a quad, motor failure is a guaranteed crash. In a hex, it's extremely dicey. Octocopter design with eight separate ESCs is safer.

In many cases the battery system is still 1+0 non redundant, however. As is the flight controller.

> The EU imposes a 10 percent tariff on passenger cars, compared with the 2.5 percent U.S. duty on European autos.

A study by the CESifo Institute in Germany found unweighted average EU tariffs of 5.2 percent, compared with the U.S. rate of 3.5 percent.

“The EU is by no means the paradise for free traders that it likes to think,” Gabriel Felbermayr, director of the think tank’s Center for International Economics, told the German business newspaper Handelsblatt.
