Actually, I think increased lifespan is likely to reduce overpopulation.

Worldwide, over many years, we have consistently seen fertility rates decreasing where life expectancy is increasing. There is debate as to cause and effect[1,2], but I believe it is largely due to a lessening of perceived risk to successful reproduction.

This is especially relevant to me since I interned at Sun in the late 90's and just accepted a job at Facebook. The Facebook recruiter mentioned working in the old Sun HQ.

Sun definitely seemed ahead of the curve when it came to working from home. My main job as an intern was to automate the process of ensuring the ISDN modems used by people to connect to Sun's network were regularly updated. The secondary job was to keep the mini-fridge in the lab stocked with beer for the weekly team meeting.
It should be no surprise that it's a wound that hasn't quite healed yet.

Comfort women [0] is another one. Before I immigrated as a kid, HK victims were still trying to sort that out with Japan. South Korea is also a victim, among other SE Asian countries.

I don't dislike the people. I dislike the successive administration that wants to ignore what their country have done to many different groups around that time.

And seeing how the West is complicit, is it that hard to understand there's still mistrust there?

I meant that I can walk to the E train, take it to the AirTran, take the AirTrain to Terminal 8 and get through security (TSA Pre) in a consistent/stable time.
Physical Unclonable Functions were supposed to address this.

I wouldn't expect them to hold a state actor at bay for more than a little while, but at least with a PUF in place overproduction isn't as simple as "just make more."
Success or failure? Why Apple is afraid of real iPhone 11 reviews and comparison
Multinational companies conforming to local laws and customs isn't scary, it's status quo. (Most) Companies sell products and services not ideology. Sometimes prexisting ideology comes preloaded in because regionalization and cultural competence cost extra. Mostly that's an economic bug that people have conflated as a soft power feature because non-western markets were too small to advocate for themselves.

It's completely reasonable for larger countries with different values to expect customization that comport to local markets. At the end of the day China isn't forcing Apple or any other companies to make changes in global markets.
> Genuine question, what exactly do these maintainers want ? Stallman has already quit his leadership role/position, right ?

No. There was some confusion on this point because a note was posted to https://stallman.org/ announcing that RMS stepped down from leadership of GNU, but this turned out to not have been posted by RMS (or with his authorization).

(It was apparently posted by someone who added RMS as an entry to the "what's wrong with…" series, with a link to the Medium post that kicked all this off. Without commenting one way or the other on the underlying issue, that is a fairly funny bit of Internet vandalism)
...yes, but there is an implicit "If 25 minutes is okay" before that question. The comment is poking at the current law's logic.
The Rise and Fall of a Russian Mercenary Army
Mmm, yeah, lack of critical thinking combined with a nationalist, "we're number one" media environment.

We would never be like that.. I mean, we're better than them. We're number one.

You probably want to develop on the Constraint solver instead of just installing, right?
Then you can use `] dev https://github.com/Wikunia/ConstraintSolver.jl`
You currently try to develop a package which already exists and that doesn't work. Yes the error message is unhelpful.
Give me a good slide rule and a manual of practical mathematics, eh?

As for scavenged parts, you're going to need a warehouse of manuals and datasheets, eh?

Depending on the details of your post-apocalyptic scenario planning, simple automation driven by relays or clockwork logic will be more likely than e.g. scavenged microcontrollers.

I applaud the spirit of the project though: I don't want to live on Gilligan's Island making everything out of coconuts and vines.
It’s gotten less progressive? 2nd graph here [1] shows the top 1% has steady increased their share of all taxes since 1986.

I have no idea what it looks like before 1986.

At my job we're currently re-building our website in django, and we make heavy use of redis caching.

Our website is definitely not "high traffic" but we get somewhere around 300,000 requests a day, mostly concentrated around business hours (We're a local clothing wholesaler).

I haven't tested it under production loads, but just swapping our redis for keydb (THANKS DOCKER!) I saw no improvement in my artificial load tests.

I didn't expect to see much real improvement for this use case, but I just thought it was worth mentioning that it isn't necessarily faster for all workloads.
In practice, GNU is almost nothing. Years ago there was more cohesion, and there are some guidelines that GNU maintainers nominally follow, but in practice each GNU package mostly does its own thing. A lot of decisions are made in a don't-tell-mom kind of way, i.e. we just try to make sure that rms doesn't notice when we do something he doesn't like, such as calling it win32/win64 instead of w32/w64 like he prefers.

One of the things I hope will happen with this statement is that we will regain cohesion and we will be able to stand together again like we once did. There's lots of good people in GNU, and I think we need someone like GNU. Principled, uncompromising, and now hopefully friendlier and more helpful than we have been.
I'm not sure the average American benefited as directly to the atrocites of the past. The U.S. simply cannot change course without a serious alteration of the the ethos of the country.
You are mistaken. Growth / Capital Expenditures count as $0 on the income sheets.

Pay for a $5 Billion factory, and it cost you $0 in terms of profit.

--------

A $5 Billion factory will cause $5 Billion of negative CASH FLOW. But it won't actually change "net profit" at all. Tesla is losing money at the operational level: their superchargers and high-end mall space is too expensive, and their margins are too thin.

--------

On the asset sheets, consider what happens when you pay for a $5 Billion factory. You lose $5 Billion in cash, but you GAIN a $5 Billion factory. So +$5Billion factory - $5 Billion cash == $0 on the bottom line.
The second season was directly teased from the first season. (I called a lot of the reveals of the second season assuming they'd be twists in the first season.) The problem with the writing in the second season was assuming enough people had read at least the Wikipedia summaries of the primary references they had cited directly and indirectly in the first season. Which is a tricky problem with "mystery box" writing in that you assume at least some of the audience will do the research, but you have to keep the show accessible enough for the people following the show but not the mystery solving / ancillary materials.

So far the promos for S3 make it sound a lot more straightforward with less "required reading", but we'll see.
I'm reading Sapien right now.
The end of history claimed that basically all countries will turn to liberal democracy once they see how awesome it is. You can look at China to see how well that worked out. It doesn't really have much to do with US internal policies.
The License you agreed to by using Windows probably covers this explicitly, even if they didn't get covered under the explicit exception for reverse-engineering and automated analysis.
How long until we don't need lungs/heart/digestion/etc. any more? With artificial blood it becomes much easier. I think we'll see the 'brain in a vat' in 20 years. This is a huge step towards immortality.

Total income, or "earned income" from a tax perspective?

There's so many technically correct but misleading definitions it's very hard to know what the "real truth" is in these discussions.
Not parent but the single threaded approach really shines when executing Lua scripts in Redis. Except for some very specific edge cases, the execution of a script is atomic and since no command is ever processed concurrently you can rule out data races.

I am sure it would be possible to provide these guaranties while offering concurrent execution but most likely at the expense of a simple design.

If I believed for a second that any successor candidate to lead the GNU project gave as much of a fuck about software and personal freedom as Stallman did/does, I might support them. My confidence that this will transpire, however, is not high.

Well you also need some paperwork to prove your cost basis, and most of that paperwork is dated.

Like many HNers, I'm on here in my spare time, while not running my startup or caring for my kids. Please forgive my not including every argument and counter-argument here.

But to reply, if you bought stock on the stock market, then yeah that is double taxed because the corporation also pays tax on their corporate income. We could get into that whole can of worms, but it's frankly too complex and off-topic. The point of my post was to show some common arguments and counter-arguments.
But the money the company pays out doesn't count as tax paid by the shareholder, and there is very good reason for this from the shareholder's perspective. The company is a separately legal entity created to protect the shareholder from liability (among other reasons). At least in theory an owner can avoid this "double tax" by doing all business under their own name and accepting the potential liability which comes with that.
They probably meant that they want factual content that either leaves out the narrative completely or equally covers all sides of the story with equal regard. I.e., content that focuses on facts and supplements it with narrative when needed. As opposed to the majority of the current political content, where the narrative takes the first and foremost place (usually very one-sided narrative too), and then facts just act as a supplement for the narrative (i.e, facts end up buried deep inside the article somewhere or just straight up linked somewhere without even being directly mentioned).
General opposition to regulation

- NN is not a cost regulation as far as I know. It's preventing companies from doing something, not requiring them to do anything extra.

Lack of competition, reduces choice

- These are the same thing and NN is not meant to be a solution to the lack of ISP competition. I think you're right that local regulations are the root case of that though. NN is meant to prevent reduced competition of services that rely on the internet, particularly those that require heavy data use. Would someone be able to start a Netflix today and compete with the media services owned by the ISPs?

Less than 3 ISPs

- Mobile service is not a replacement for home internet service. Even with tethering most households would go way over their mobile data caps if that's all they used.

ISPs will produce different packages

- This happens all over the world in places without NN. But since most of the major ISPs are also media companies in the US they simple zero-rate their own media. This has the same effect of reducing competition among online services.

Also your username switched around is Ajit P. That's a little suspect ;)
Thanks for clarifying. But that seems a bit unfair and arbitrary. Rails definitely boosted its popularity but Ruby itself is quite potent without it. Stripe has its systems written in Ruby without using Rails, for example.

If we apply the same standards for Python, shouldn't we track its popularity by when NumPy(Numeric) came into being? (1995)

This is supremely pedantic though, and I don't really care about arguing it here, so :shrugs:
Undeclared Martial Law on the Streets of Hong Kong

Seems bizarre. If I build 30 .NET binaries a day while building and testing a new feature, I guess all 30 get uploaded to MS and tested. And the same for all of the other developers doing the same sort of thing around the world. I wonder how often their test cluster goes down in flames while some C++ developer somewhere is trying to fix a memory access bug.
"Uncompromising" and "friendly" are not terms that one typically finds together.
The comment is just pointing out to the OP that any moral bankruptcy of the US can most certainly not be blamed on China.

Perhaps if your goal is peace of mind rather than correctness. All crazy things are not necessarily coincidences.
The human-readable/writable protocol is one of my favorite things about Redis, tbh.

I can see cases where a really optimized system could benefit from a binary protocol, but I suspect it'd be a loss for most people.
I am working on exactly this with an engine I have developed in my spare time. So far, I have implemented a realistic physics model for both flight through a fluid (based on stability derivatives, much like Flight Simulator) and for space travel (currently Newtonian). Although I hope to one day support a large procedural universe, currently only a Terra type world with an Earth-like moon are supported.

Slow down for a second. You're misreading the language.

By "100 millionaires" he means hundred-millionaires, that is, people who have one hundred million dollars or more. By "100 millionaires and billionaires", "hundred-millionaires as well as billionaires".
Here's [1] the list of contributors to GNU. Note that it also includes past contributors.

KeyDB provides that guarantee via a lock. However that does mean long running scripts don’t benefit from the multithreading. Ditto for modules.

The goal is 100% Redis compatibility so I can’t compromise on atomicity.
Currently, most of China's power comes from its economy. There is barely any military presence outside of the mainland, and only a few years ago they opened their first outpost. So it's not surprising that Apple is conforming to their requests. And they are not the only ones. A while back, German carmaker Daimler made an instagram post with a Dalai Lama quote [1]. They ended up apologizing for "hurting the feelings of the chinese people".

China is extremely attractive to businesses because of its gigantic market. There are tons of cars to be sold in a country with over one billion people. Tons of phones. There are tons of chinese hotel guests, chinese search requests, etc.

HIPAA would end up falling on your neck, not theirs. The users of windows are required to turn that setting off if you're in HIPAA land, among probably a hundred other things.
I disagree. You may see "contested" borders, but not outright US policy. For example, the US recognizes the sovereignty of Kosovo, but Google Maps shows it as a dotted border. And Wikipedia accurately describes it as a disputed state.

MyMilk Labs launches Mylee, a small sensor that analyzes breast milk at home
No, that's still wrong. There is nothing ethically problematic about "accepting a job", and it's entirely possible to have a hot job market but not leave people homeless. The parent poster is homeless because Seattle isn't building enough housing to accommodate all the new residents, and that is what drives rents up. That, in turn, is driven by NIMBY opposition and bad policy.
That "disgusting bunch of people" wrote a ton of the underlying software that powers the internet. You might not like them, but show a little respect.

We can be friendly without having to compromise freedom. We don't have to be friendly to those who would want to use our software to take freedom away from others. We should be friendly to everyone who wants to use our software freely, regardless of their skill level.

My view is that GNU should be working towards making sure we can get our software into as many people as possible by giving it an attractive interface, simple installation instructions, and a welcoming community, while at the same time refusing to collaborate with any who wish to proliferate non-free software.
Oh my god.

"all computer users" with the implication that Stallman is not representing the ones who demand to go straight to lynch mob behavior without a shadow if due process as soon as the word "sexual" is mentioned? And therefore Stallman should be thrown out of the project that is his creation and life's work?

That's got to be one of the most forced political readings ever of that point in the manifesto.
Well, if that's the argument, I'm a computer user too and every one of these signatories have just demonstrated themselves unfit to represent me. Enough of the witch hunt, and hands off Richard Stallman's thoroughly earned standing in the GNU project!
Seems premature to announce the challenge before f2f is implemented (f2f
sounds highly nontrivial).
> > reduces choices for consumers

> This, I don't get. How so? What choice is being meaningfully restricted by the requirement that you don't discriminate based on source or destination?

Let's say an ISP offers a plan allowing their users to have full-speed access to partner video steam providers, and slower access to their main competitors. This plan is half the price of their main plan, which gives full-speed access to everyone.

The plan I described would be illegal, as I understand it, under NN. This means that that choice had been removed as an option for consumers. There are many consumers who would use this plan: people who do very little video streaming at all, people who use their partner's video streaming service, and people who use very small competing services which fly under the radar of their throttling. Those people now have to pay more because a choice that would have benefitted them is illegal.

The United States doesn't officially recognize Taiwan as a country. Taiwan is not a member of the United Nations. Apple's revenue in Taiwan is peanuts compared to that of mainland China. The list goes on.
At that point you're very far from a legality issue.
I've enjoyed reading Dave's writing for most of that time. His email newsletter DaveNet used to include the email addresses of a few random subscribers to each person. It was fun to see the addresses of famous people occasionally. Dave's always had interesting ideas. Looking back in my old email, I have some DaveNet's from 2003, but I read it back to the mid '90's or so.

For many years I read everything on scripting.com. I still check in now and again. Thanks for everything Dave.

(Dave seems to be one of those people that can't be discussed rationally on HN, much like Stephen Wolfram.)
It should have been a 2018 issue as well. Arguably these are legislative matters, not executive.
