I don't know, it's one way to do things. You're signing up for an experience like this. Hopefully you're aware of that. If you're not, and you find you dislike the experience, you can stop without any significant loss.

It would be interesting to see multiple user experiences that you can choose between. If you find gamification motivating, you can choose that. If you just want a list of lessons and exercises with no artificial progressions, you can choose that as well. That would be an interesting next step for UI design to take, seeing as many of our objections to an offering are UI based. If companies can capitalize on that fact, they can cater to a larger user base, and alienate fewer people.
Right but you can park a car in a cheap area and then drive it through very expensive neighborhoods in downtown San Francisco cooking and delivering food while a non-motorized food vendor would need to pay through the nose for that space to prep and sell.

Lots of people in Europe do have licences that would allow them to drive heavier vehicles, though. For example, the rules changed here in the UK for drivers passing their test from 1997 onwards, but those who passed before that will usually have a licence for most vehicle categories apart from the really big ones like HGVs and buses. If memory serves, I can technically drive something like a 7.5t box truck with another 4.5t as a trailer without exceeding what my licence legally permits -- though given my lack of specialist training in that type of vehicle, whether it would be a good idea is another question entirely!

Telecoms companies operate with license in the countries they operate.

The concept of "lawful intercept" is baked into any product they build, operate or sell.

malware is my guess. New registrant is The Verden Public Prosecutor's Office which shows up on:

Just a note, as a brit I've heard the term ponce, used in the sense of scrounging, exactly once in my whole life. A mate told me how she wanted to get into a punk gig and was down in the underground 'poncing for money'. Cue my raised eyebrows 'till she explained.
Definitely. That's why there's no such thing as a working animal.

Ops point that you quoted makes sense. Here’s another way to think about this -

Your personal motivation might be financial security or something else, but you might be in a position where you are perceived or measured based on some metric that you personally don’t care about any more than you have to insofar as it’s helps you in securing your job, pay, safe environment, or whatever else. Not everyone has the luxury of easily changing teams or moving across the country for their actual work passion and people are all at different points of their lives. My motivations are probably different than yours.

These concepts should not be dismissed as being orthogonal by some textbook definition. I’m not sure what being pedantic adds to the conversation.

I pretend nothing; the first part of my response made it obvious I'm not responding to housing-related issues.

I'm guilty of being a little snippy, which I'll own. I just get sick of these unmoored "housing sucks in California well no, it is taxes well really is is about..." conversations. The issues are complex, there's real lives and lots of money on the line, and yes, fully two thirds of these conversations involve moving goalposts, whether or not people realize that's what they're doing.

Our WWW was only V1 of the people’s internet. There will surely be another, more radical in its decentralization.

I love the WWW, but I don’t mind if Capital will take it. They’ve already ruined much of it... the ads, the surveillance, SquareSpace’s cookie cutter stores, ES6, Webpack, etc. Erasing everything that was good about the old days.

In an actual scene, you also have an underlying set of game rules guiding it which the actors are negotiating through.

It is possible for the characters to disagree with each other if it's not blocking - it allows the scene to continue to develop instead of shutting it down. In this case, disagreement over the weather would become the focus of the action.

> A number of SCOTUS justices in the past had no legal backgrounds whatsoever, with the last such judge serving until 1957.

What you are saying is strictly, clearly incorrect.

In fact, not only has every person who has served as a SCOTUS justice been an attorney, but every person nominated has been an attorney. [0]

Stanley Forman Reed, to whom you are referring as the person who retired in 1957, attended but did not graduate from law school - perhaps that's the source of your confusion? In any case, Reed had a long, storied career as an attorney before being nominated to the Court.

Again: every person for whom a nomination has been submitted by a POTUS to the Senate has been an practicing attorney, barred in one or more US States. There has not been a single exception. And certainly no nomination even approaching "no legal background whatsoever."

I would emphasize whenever an analysis has been validated or commented on by the company itself. That elevates the veracity of your analysis from an "amateur blog" level to a "legitimate source for UI examples/successes" level. I think it makes sense to prioritize collecting feedback from those companies as well. Could make or break user engagement.
This is probably why 2 separate judges upheld a cops decision to arrest me for using bad language while walking away from officer that had been harassing me as I was walking home from work.

The law in SC is literally that bad language on the public road is a crime. They ignored 2 pages of precedents.

I loved the parts where the author shows who created the notations used and what was their context and way of thinking.

I tend to get distracted when the notation in a field is awkward to me. Statistics confuse me with notations that resemble function applications, but are not. I like how physics customize the notation to their needs, like the use of brackets in quantum mechanics.
People make the state as it is today, so those people are exactly the reason what made CA is becoming. No they don't want to do just 25%, they want to own it and do 100+% their way wherever they migrate to, it's called Stockholm Syndrome. After they destroy a new place, they will move on to yet another state, which is why I call epidemic.
Mal is absolutely great. I implemented it a couple of month ago (all tests pass while self hosting) in go. There was already an implementation in go, but I did it for the learning experience. Got more comfortable with go. I feel like lisp makes a lot more sense to me now. And I have a basic understanding of how to go about writing an interpreter/compiler.

The documentation in my opinion is fantastic, because I could jump in and start implementing it without feeling like I was just translating prose and diagrams to code (need to actually understand what you're implementing), or ever feeling completely lost. The end product still feels like 'my' interpreter.

If you'd like to learn more about lisp and interpreters/compilers, or just get more familiar with a language to implement it in: I can absolutely fully recommend implementing mal.

Edit: Oh, and if you do implement it yourself. Don't look at existing code. If I wasn't sure on the exact expected behavior at any point, I used the online JS implementation of mal as a black-box to see how it behaves: https://kanaka.github.io/mal/
Not sure myself - I always read it on the laptop.
You could do it without a calculator like this:

Assume the middle of the sequence is 201 since 2012 / 10 ~= 201. Then the sum of the 11 numbers between 195 and 206 would be 11 * 201 = 2211. Subtract the sum of the values we didn't remove to get 2211 - 2012 = 199. 199 is between 195 and 206 proving that it is a valid answer.

Edit: Also I did my masters in pure math, doesn't mean that I cannot use common logic without the formalism.
However, all Magistrate Courts have a Clerk to the Justices who is qualified and advises the magistrates on the law at hearings and handles other court functions.

"A person can only be designated if he/she has a five-year magistrates' court qualification, was a barrister or solicitor who had served for not less than five years as an assistant to a justices' clerk, or had previously been a justices' clerk"

People can be friendly to your face and still vote for and support laws and political leaders who want you out of their area or worse.

Look at how they fought gay marriage or how they treat Mexican-American's. There are pockets of safety in that state (Houston/Austin) but as a whole it's not that great.

I lived a number of years in Idaho which has the same problem. I'm "OK" in Boise (even there things can happen) but I'm genuinely concerned for my safety when I have to drive anywhere else in that state.

Ask HN: Other examples of “standing-on-the-shoulders-of-giants” tools?
I know this is probably too broad of a topic, but there are some great tools out there that allow one to use solutions created by experts, to build something new without actually possessing expert knowledge in that topic.

Some examples are:

* LLVM: you can build a programming language that compiles to LLVM IR — and get all the optimizations for free.

* SAT solvers — convert your NP-hard problem to SAT and run a SAT solver on it.

* Boehm(-Demers-Weiser) garbage collector — collect garbage without actually explicitly writing any garbage collecting logic.

Yes? I mean that happens all the time. Just because a trait isn't useful doesn't mean it will disappear. Sometimes it will stay even if it's harmful as long as it doesn't kill the individual before they reproduce.

If you're hosting warez streaming, any non-US/western EU coutnry?
Yes. Music trackers have always been a ton of effort, but in their prime trackers had the advantage of having basically a monopoly on music discovery. If you wanted to find out about citypop in 2011 what.cd was the place, now youtube will recommended it to you on a Joe Rogan video.

People didn't go to what.cd and jump through all those hoops to find rare music, they went to find good music, and now Spotify and YouTube do a good enough job of that with a lot less effort.

As a funny example of that I discovered Billie Eilish when Ocean Eyes first came out from a private tracker and now she's about as big as anyone. So it isn't just about discovering rare czech folk singers, but any music that you might like.

I think the hardcore demographic you mentioned is spot on and does exist, but they were always a minority and the evaporation of the less hardcore users explains why the scene is so much smaller now.
I liie esr's definition (for community building, but works for MVP too):

> plausible promise. Your program doesn't have to work particularly well. It can be crude, buggy, incomplete, and poorly documented. What it must not fail to do is (a) run, and (b) convince potential co-developers that it can be evolved into something really neat in the foreseeable future. http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/cathedral...

In some cases, the problem you're solving might adequately define the "promise" you're trying to fulfil.

The wolf has little choice. You do but choose pain for others for hedonistic reasons. The agriculture industry is outrageously more cruel than a pack of wolves killing an elk. My expectation is for people to choose the path of least suffering to the extent they have the ability.

And to answer your question, I do get upset when I watch a pack of wolves kill an elk. Just because it happens doesn't mean I don't recognize and empathize with things in pain.
Other than my thinking that comments should be only for jokes, I like this idea. I'd leave the comments faded, and the keywords also faded, but probably in a different color.
> (This used to happen in Europe, but during the middle ages the church banned cousin marriages for political reasons: it stopped the nobility consolidating too much power.)

Not so much banned it, as restricted it: dispensations were fairly common among the nobility and royalty, who could afford the fees charged by the Church for the privilege.

And not just cousin marriage, either: marriages between uncle and niece were hardly unknown. For an example somewhat after the Middle Ages, have a look at the family tree of Charles II of Spain [0]: his father and mother were uncle and niece, as were his paternal great-grandparents and his maternal great-great-grandparents. He was descended in 14 different ways from Philip I and Joanna of Castile, at a remove of five, six or seven generations. Of his 16 great-great-great-grandmothers, Anna of Bohemia and Hungary was four of them (and also four of his 32 great-great-great-great-grandmothers). And so on.

I've met people who feel treated like you before. They were usually rather obnoxious in their display of their political opinions. I'm not saying you are, but you might want to stick to living by your views instead of letting everyone know what they are at the earliest opportunity.

Yep, and after this the new company will have nothing to do with Canada. Toronto Dominion shares in TD Ameritrade will be cashed out. Though it will be interesting to see if they still get their back end cut like they do now.

This is mostly huffing and puffing by museums. In the US, this was settled in Bridgeman vs. Corel, in 1999, and reinforced by Meshwerks vs. Toyota, which extended that to 3D scans.

This is effectively settled law. The best demonstration of this is that Wikipedia operates on the principle that scans of public domain art can be included in Wikipedia, and the Wikimedia Foundation is willing to go to court over that. The National Portrait Gallery in the UK did start a lawsuit once, but backed down. After 20 years, no claim of copyright on a copy of a public domain image seems to have gone anywhere in court.

Castles were less useful because you didn't need internal military structure to defend against the people from one province over. Roman cities for 100s of years didn't upgrade their city walls, even communities in Gaul stopped living in hill cities and so on.

Defensive structure really only made sense in specific border regions. There however large empires certainty did invest in such defenses. Border cities that were ready to be under siege and that could host an arriving army.
"A shadowy hacker claimed to have the financier’s sex tapes. Two top lawyers wondered: What would the men in those videos pay to keep them secret?" is the question the NYT starts with.

The answer is: "their countries".

Epstein was likely a US intelligence agent (this was confirmed by the attorney general handling his case) who was employed to gain leverage on influential/powerful people and foreign leaders.

Why would he be recording foreign leaders having sex with underage women, have a fake passport issued to him, have no discernable job besides "managing assets", and regularly and privately fly the world's most powerful people (including US presidents)_between countries without even Secret Service?
Very good point. If you look at the Superhuman case study, their CEO went through the slides before the release and accepted to have "their stamp" in there. Other companies don't want that information public though, that's the only problem :-/.
This move was almost certainly planned long before the merger. They announced construction of a massive, headquarters-sized campus in Westlake several years ago, and they're already almost done building 3 of the huge office buildings (with 2-3 more to come). My guess is that the move is an entirely separate decision but was combined with this announcement for convenience sake.
