I think your point misses part of the market's intent. If you want the market to act correctly, you have to model the carbon or greenhouse constraint in the opmization.

That way you'll send the proper price signals and incentivize new generation or other assets (badly needed in much of the US). What we're currently doing fixes one problem and causes another. This is why ERCOT is having to do things like add in a $9000/MWh ORDC (among other reasons). The prices are just too low.
What's the motivation behind making it a progressive scale per mile?

Is there a reason the Nth mile should be taxed more than the 1st when the environmental impact of the Nth mile and the 1st are the same?
There are ways to check that. I've used the bridge photo as a reference: https://www.mapchecking.com/#47.4984682,19.0412546;47.498538...

Bottom left of the marked area are those lion statues, while the top right is the lowest point of the chains between the two gates, which is as far as I can see the crowd using that reference. 1 person per meter is a pretty low estimate for a protest walk, but I took it as an average anyway since I can't see the density that far back. I've ended up with 1890 people, and I'd say that pretty much the lowest estimate you can get from that photo.
Isn't this the most convenient setup though? I'm most familiar with async/await in UI programming and you most often have a main thread for synchronization. You want to assume that most of your main thread work is synchronous and non-yielding until you explicitly yield. Seems like it would be a lot harder to use main thread synchronization in the style your suggesting.

Maybe I just can't imagine it. Whats a good language that shows off the style you're suggesting?
Hmmm, is there guidance saying that you should auto-redirect?

The spec says, "If the authorization server observes multiple attempts to exchange an authorization code for an access token, the authorization server SHOULD attempt to revoke all access tokens already granted based on the compromised authorization code."[1]

If an authorization server implements the recommended behavior and an auto-redirect, doesn't that mean that GET requests will no longer be safely considered immutable since they may cause revocation of previous access_tokens?

I'm guessing you haven't traveled much. American is a virtually ubiquitous term to describe someone from the United States worldwide, no matter which language you're speaking. Countries which have a problem with calling yourself American are a minority, and even then it's usually a small minority of the younger generation.
Seems like such a strategy would already be illegal as a means of avoiding capital gains taxes.

It would also have the side-effect of destroying the company's valuation and thus its credit rating.
Don't invoke Chomsky for this nonsense.

> What has been created by this half century of massive corporate propaganda is what's called "anti-politics". So that anything that goes wrong, you blame the government. Well okay, there's plenty to blame the government about, but the government is the one institution that people can change... the one institution that you can affect without institutional change. That's exactly why all the anger and fear has been directed at the government. The government has a defect - it's potentially democratic. Corporations have no defect - they're pure tyrannies. So therefore you want to keep corporations invisible, and focus all anger on the government. So if you don't like something, you know, your wages are going down, you blame the government. Not blame the guys in the Fortune 500, because you don't read the Fortune 500. You just read what they tell you in the newspapers... so you don't read about the dazzling profits and the stupendous dizz, and the wages going down and so on, all you know is that the bad government is doing something, so let's get mad at the government.

-- Noam Chomsky

I've built bitstreams, but these days I build software for consumer electronics with screens running ARM Linux.
Yeah, we had some outage yesterday. Docker seems to be opening files and then not closing them again, which causes issues sooner or later. Sorry about that. The one redeeming thing with this is when this happens we're usually still getting your uploads, just not processing them. Anyway, sorry.

> Also, is there any way you could upload documents that members of a case get for free through Pacer?

Yeah, we've experimented with that, but haven't gotten it nailed down yet. If somebody wanted to help, especially somebody with free-look access, we'd love to hear from you.
That’s because of all the non-Swiss who domicile in Switzerland but earn income outside of Switzerland. But this example does serve to illustrate that a wealth tax in US won’t be restricted to the “rich” forever... eventually almost everyone will pay it.

React has now been relevant for 6 years and it's still growing AFAIK. I don't think we get to lump it into this category of coming and going JS frameworks anymore.
Believe in government and you will get hurt. Extortion and robbery, business as usual.
Yes, but that has nothing to do with human behavior.
I'd bet on some of the core concepts from frameworks being relevant in 15 years - hierarchies of nested visual components that encapsulate raw HTML, systems which atomically update state based on incoming events, and so on.
> I believe will make rust pretty much the easiest low-level platform to develop for.

This stuff is easily available for C. It's just a function call instead of syntactic sugar. On Windows, use Fibers. On Linux, there is a (deprecated) API as well (forget the name). Or use a portable wrapper library.

Or just write a little assembly. Can't be hard.
I just spent several minutes explaining it, then deleted the comment because it's obviously an in-joke that's not funny when explained. Sorry, in-jokes don't belong on HN (except HN-in-jokes ofc).

The gist is that Smash is not only a spectacularly skilled coder and artist, but also an extremely nice guy (like just about every demoscener) and that sceners have a habit of colloquially mocking one another.
Send me an email: mike@free.law. We can take a look. I don't know of any jurisdictions that have that issue, but it could be an emerging pattern or one we've missed.
point source capturing co2 from burning fossil fuels and then turning it into more liquid fuels that you then burn again is madness. you get that right? it makes less sense than simply saying "fuck it" and pumping the same amount of fossil fuel up. at least then you don't have to pay the energy cost of the transitions.

this kind of high-anxiety circular reasoning is hopefully the 'bargaining' phase before you move onto acceptance.
>If the pension didn't do their duty to warn businesses of the deficit in 2005, it should be on their heads to fund the deficit

The irony is the Pension claimed they couldn't notice the employers at the time (which would have given the opportunity to buy out for 1 Euro) because they would have had to research the contact info for thousands of employers...yet the Pension seems to have no problem doing the research now and noticing these employers of their Million+ Euro liabilities.
> "adjust your models of reality" isnt actionable advice.

It is completely actionable advice. It means simply that you will communicate better if the two parties communicating have more shared context. For each of us, reality is our perspective of it. Finding common ground between our perspectives is the first step in communication, expanding our common ground is the next. Understanding how another person sees the world and how they describe it goes a long way towards making yourself understood by them.
Are you sure there is absolutely no shortage of workers and thus few dozens of people will be completely unable to live their lives anymore after you automate metro? I don't think that is true.
"I don’t understand this." is a valid review comment. Of course sometimes you can expand on the comment, but sometimes it's enough.
While I agree with this, I don’t want to discourage OP. You don’t have to spend 10 years learning the basics before calling yourself a web dev.

Learning web dev(or programming in general) is very much like how babies learn to speak. You don’t have to learn all the alphabets, rules and grammars before you learn to speak. You can still observe what others are doing, copy it, reason about it, draw interesting patterns from it and continue your learnings from there.

Op: So go ahead, jump right in. Open your browser’s javascript console and start playing. Learn React and build small apps. Pick python and build servers. Not everything will intuitively click, but push regardless. You’ll eventually understand everything. After all, the more dots you collect, the more ways you can connect them!
You just learned the hard way that right-wing authoritarians don't believe internal state exists.
I'm intrigued by the possibility of using one of these design systems in some of my own work, but I'm likewise concerned about what it means for the long-term. Especially given that I'm not really a UI person first and foremost, I worry about an excessive degree of lock-in that will be hard to back out later if needed.

I haven't tried this one yet, but I'm playing around with the IBM Carbon Design System now for an internal side-project thing... depending on how that goes, I might start using that more widely.

On that note, I'd be really curious to hear from anybody who has used Carbon, and is willing to share their thoughts, pro or con.
Solving Code Jam Qualification Round. In Excel. [E. Kalinicenko, 2015]
This sort of judgmental classicist helps no one. Plenty of people work in tech (or in any other area) primarily to pay the bills, and they don’t make anyone around then “miserable”.
> Do clients hire consultants to build software without knowing at least something about what software needs to be built?

Yes? All the time.

"I've heard about this thing called machine learning. Come assess how I can use it in my business."

"We have a problem where orders are missing their commit dates and we need something built to find those earlier in our procurement process. Maybe our new cloud ERP can help...?"

So they have some degree of knowledge around the success criteria (what) and the value (why) but even those need to be shaped up and agreed upon.

And then the design considerations, approaches, tradeoffs, constraints, risks, options, etc. (the how) is somewhere between directionally correct and nonexistent.
This looks really cool! The notifications for movement detected is a plus but is there any way to customize that in a way that notifications wouldn't get pushed every time the cat decides to jump up on the couch?
Their model is overfitted. If you type "What the fuck did you" it will output Navy Seal copypasta with almost no changes. No wonder why it sometimes generates human-like texts, because in some cases it literally spews out its training examples with minimal or no changes.
We're thinking about that, actually! There are a couple hard parts though:

1. How do you know which documents to buy with the donated credits?

2. How do you get access to the user's account? Do you store their password somewhere?

Maybe a simple trick would be to throw a little alert with the extension around the end of the quarter just to say, "Hey, it's the end of the quarter. Have you spent your entire free budget?"

Hm. There's an opportunity here, but we've never quite nailed it down.
These are all just basic principles of being a working professional, if any of this is non-obvious you have a culture problem not a code review problem.
IMO, it’s a waste of time. How does the person who wrote the code know what exact thing you don’t understand? You also aren’t asking a question so it’s not really easy to answer. This stuff tends to take multiple review cycles to resolve where a more specific question might actually clarify things in one cycle (It’s never good to assume your lack of understanding means it doesn’t make sense, of course.)
The Power of the MoSCoW Method
I'd argue that it is a crazy bureaucratic maze, but we agree on the specifics of the change.

Shared liability was a fairly simple way for small employers to keep their workers taken care of even if specific businesses failed. Its existence, along with the existence of unincorporated business owners, was missed or ignored when Section 75 was put into place. And the oversight wasn't corrected in 2005 when the rules were revised.

More damningly, the rules were revised seemingly without consideration for the difficulty of back-filling forty years of contributions to an entirely new threshold. Section 75 came about because of outright theft, and was revised in response to employers promising pensions out of line with what they were actually investing, but it wasn't targeted towards those cases. Instead, it created a liability for employers who'd been adequately funding pension schemes for decades, based on a calculation they'd never planned to support. And if the pension funds don't play along, they incur fines which could actually make healthy funds insolvent!

So a change aimed at addressing theft from pensions has created a situation where either employers are bankrupted for offering pensions to employees, or healthy, honest pension funds become unable to pay full benefits. I won't allege malice, but it's fairly spectacular incompetence to write a law supporting pensions which actually endangers people's pensions.
Everything out of the Mueller report, frankly. It's history-making stuff. https://free.law/featured-cases/special-counsel/
The pension are presumably insured to cover their negligence and liabilities...including failure to properly notice employers/members of the fund in breach of their duty to do so, which resulted in damages. Otherwise it comes directly from the pension (which isn't just a fund made up of employer contributions, it is a business entity that takes fees from the fund itself)
Morally and practically I think this point of view is repugnant. And it is easily defeated by a life insurance policy. Simply buy a life insurance policy equal to your entire net worth, die, give the payout to your heirs tax free. Thank you Warren Buffett.
I expect a degree of mockery for your comment but it's not as if the diurnal cycle doesn't have a massive effect! The lunar cycle too - and that mechanism isn't understood. Humans do go crazy around the full moon[1].

But, like, Mercury? Have you got any ideas about possible mechanisms?

Latitude isn't versioned. Flexport's internal monorepo tracks Latitude's master branch. When we make breaking changes to Latitude, we update all internal call sites too. For example, see https://github.com/flexport/latitude/pull/61 where we replaced our tooltip implementation. This approach has worked well for about 4 years so far.

As for docs, we do generate what we can (as explained by my sibling comment). But some pages (e.g. guidelines) are indeed hand-crafted.
They're efficient in terms of drivers.

Trains require large headway (gaps between trains, like following distance in a car) for safety reasons. This limits the number of trains you can run on a line. Which places a natural limit on the number of drivers you need.

Instead, you scale up passenger throughput by adding cars to trains. When you do this, you scale up capacity independent of number of drivers. Sort of a marginal cost of zero.

Another efficiency question, though, is bang for the buck. Trains are expensive to build. Headway limits the number of trains, and you can't make trains longer than the platform length. So you hit kind of a brick wall of scalability.

So it's worth asking whether automation could let you squeeze more return out of your investment in building the train line. Maybe it would unlock capacity increases through reduced headway. Or maybe some other way. I think it's an open question how much this can help, though.

Juries are given specific instructions which includes something to the effect of "it is your duty to determine if the defendent violated the law, regardless of if you agree with the law". The possibility of jury nullification is not included in those instructions.

Before being selected for a jury, jururs are asked (under penalty of perjury) if they can apply the law regardless of there personal feelings about it. Anyone who seriously considers nullification would be lying if they said yes, and would likely be excluded for saying no.

At least in the US, all jury nullification is, is the fact that the jury's decision making is above review. It is not so much that jury nullification is legal, it is that any ban on nullification is unenforcable. The courts therefore do whatever they can to avoid nullification.
Yeah, a "duress" mode. Maybe activated if you unlock with a different finger or PIN.
It’s absolutely a great career with high demand. I’d start looking at freecodecamp.com. It sounds like you’re very early in this process so you’ll probably need to fight off decision paralysis. Just start something and keep going. You will figure out, soon enough, what you enjoy and what you don’t. You can do this! I’ve mentioned several people in similar situations, and it’s very doable.
A bit off topic, but what is your overall view of the self driving sector, aside from the more egregiously irresponsible players?
How many emails, memos, etc. does a large organization create everyday? I’m sympathetic to your point, but surely 4000 documents could be cherrypicked to present a consistent view of the company (for good or bad).

You can do that, but they're not really replacements for one another, and there are lots of things that can pull one way or another for that use case.

- You generally don't want to run storage servers virtualized.

- Tooling matters. There are multiple reasons I generally do things the same way at home as I do at work (within reason).

- Probably a niche concern, but I have some hardware that is only configurable during early boot.

- Virtualization costs performance. Not a huge issue at home, granted, and you have to quantify it for your specific workload. (It is usually going to be IO.) But it certainly can matter with home workloads; home theater video processing is probably the most common.

I use both for what they're good at. IMPI is for managing hardware. Virtualization is for not needing more of it.
Does the video touch your servers? Or does it stream directly from the device with the camera to the person watching it?
Look at jobs in your area to see what's in demand. PHP is king where I live for example, there's not much else. Some places are all full stack Javascript. In Japan Ruby is still huge.

So I'd check what's in demand and then try to use it immediately to make some useful websites; ghat way you can build a portfolio while you learn.
I guess. . . as a city-dweller, it's still a daily thing for me. All that lead settled on the ground, and it's still there. So I need to be much more careful about letting my kids play in the dirt in our backyard than I do when we're visiting friends in the country. Some studies have suggested it's a bigger source of exposure in kids than lead-based paint or contaminated water.

It's also one of the main reasons why the CDC recommends that everyone take off their shoes when they enter the house.
It could also run CP/M software because it included a Z80 on the motherboard. In fact the Z80 was in control of the system at power on and only transferred control to the 8502 if a CP/M disk was not detected.
You can easily convert async to sync by just blocking on the result. The other way (sync to async) is more difficult and requires proxying out to a thread pool, but it's also doable.
The two premises are interdependent.

Not at all. While you can rent an air-mattress on the living room floor, it should be advertised as such. When a listing is for an apartment with 2 bedrooms and an air mattress on the living room floor, listing it as "3 bedrooms" is bullshit and not even legal.

This article is about how money has become more detached from reality to the point where investors can throw money around [to strike gold at overvalued unicorns while every other venture bleeds money -my take]. There's definitely an overlap with the other articles from various news sources reporting on how millenial apps and services are fueled by this "reckless" spending that bleeds losses.

Sure, most Americans can afford the bare necessities of life: food, water, housing. However many cannot afford it without going into debt, which then fuels the financial lenders with more money to spend through parasitic interest usury (in addition to the central bank engaged in schemes to pump more money into these lenders to "stimulate the economy"). Not to mention the state of medical care where many cannot afford it or else they will go bankrupt.

Money is also increasingly being funneled into the top percentages with the relative lack of wage growth since the 70's. (What filled that gap? Going into debt.) "Free money," as the article states but is in the form of debt, is given to people with good credit scores and denied to people with bad credit scores. This in itself helps creates the divide that the article refers to “The system of making capitalism work well for most people is broken.” and "...which contributes to the rising wealth, opportunity, and political gap."
Just for the record, I didn't mean to sound like I was happy about that point :). A more generalized system of recourse is an interesting idea, but I'm having a hard time imagining (and likely the fault of my own imagination) something more general than a court system. Either way, I feel like it'll be an immensely difficult uphill battle no matter what, because it's always easier to take the conservative route and defer to precedence, even if there's an acknowledged issue.

How does one rattle an institution out of its comfort zone? It's a pretty old question.

To me it seems the better ones are the ones where there isn’t a symbiosis (that’s kinda transactional but with friendship), I think the better ones are the ones without expectations other than having a disinterested bond.
Glad to see Hacker News is again upholding Internet Rule 814: the comment section for any article alleging disparate impact of policy on a group presumed to be people of color will consist largely of posts attempting to contradict the article, rather than posts discussing what should be done if considering that the article's claims are true.
