This is a front company controlled by a foreign government in part. Their security / cloud team is made up of former Credit Karma engineers.

In regards to Credit Karma, they are funded by Tiger Global Management. Tiger Global Management is quite an interesting company. Their SSL organization is currently on 16 million certs worldwide. With the 2nd most being in Russia and the 3rd most in Ukraine. This can be looked up right now on Shodan. Simply enter “Tiger Global Management, LLC”.

I along with two reporters separately have reached out to them over the past 2-3 months. They have not responded to any comment or made any changes.

Private equity firms are buying out hosting and domain registration companies en-masse. This is what happened during the .ORG. Ethol Capital is lol a fake company. They had 2 employees on LinkedIn as of a few weeks ago.

Look at Mailgun.org btw which you might notice Segment uses (also recently acquired by private equity firm out of San Antonio). Exactly why does one of their DNS records point to Culliganwaterllc.com in Coeur De Alene, Idaho of all places? For god sakes these people were involved in a major hacking incident in April.

This is not a theory so much as it is a collection of pressing questions that demand an explanation.

It's way more than visual. For example, Japanese plurals aren't evident and need to be understood from context. Another example is the word order, in Japanese, the verb goes at the end of the sentence. Add to it Hiragana and Katakana characters and it becomes quite difficult to learn.
Take some Bootstrap 4 Template and just stick to HTML + CSS. It's enough for a first impression, don't go for the tech stack overkill.
Oh, okay. Now that's quite an unexpected response to get here.

"Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law."

I thought I knew what this phrase meant, but its truth never hit home until I stood before a judge. Perhaps it would be better phrased as "everything you say can and will be used against you" It's shocking and frightening how a comment that you'd think is a positive for yourself will be cynically twisted to make you look terrible. The comment above about the prosecutor is telling: the man who prosecuted me used self-created fabrications to make up for his lack of a case against me. The judge told him that the documents that he had on his desk directly refuted what the prosecutor claimed, and the prosecutor continued with his case as though getting caught lying was just a matter of course. And it was. Lying is only a problem for the defendant. If the prosecutor doesn't ruin your life with imprisonment, the legal system will ruin it with the money that it takes to defend yourself.

That’s not quite true, in England the purchase of a house is not binding until the contract is signed and exchanged with a deposit, but completing the contract (paying the balance, handing over the keys) can be done at some agreed point in the future. In Scotland the difference is that when you make the offer to buy you include any conditions that need to be met (things that should they come up in conveyancing would cause you to withdraw). If the seller accepts the offer + the conditions you can only pull out under the conditions stated in the offer rather than for any reason you like. The process is still fundamentally: offer -> conyeancing -> contract -> completion

It absolutely can happen but I suspect the frequency is much lower compared to the US (just like being imprisoned in general is much less likely in most other countries). I would certainly hope so.

Most high profile cases of wrongful conviction or almost-wrongful-convictions in Germany are sex crimes or connected to sex crimes with very little reliable evidence.

> The cops don't want to sort anything out, they aren't on your side. They want to nail you. That's all they care about. They have a job to do. That job is to find someone to blame for this problem. So they're gonna do that.

Police in a certain sense always wants to nail people after a crime has been committed. The difference is perhaps that US cops are more happy nailing any convenient person, while police elsewhere rather want to nail who actually did it, which of course does not mean they actually do.

Apart from being directly connected to a serious investigation in which case it is probably most wise to consult a lawyer in any case, I don't have issues talking to the police, be it reporting something or asking for help. If people regard police as an oppressive force that better not be involved in things, that clearly suggests a big problem with the police.

> Unlike in USSR, American judges don't join their past clients in the gulag if they disagree with prosecutors. Why do they do it then?

Judges are meant to just be referees. Even if a judge thinks you're innocent and knows a defence you could use, they can't suggest you use it; they have to wait for your lawyer to bring it up.

Now yes, in theory, if you had an open-minded, honest, unbiased judge patiently investigate all the facts and make a decision, it would be more fair than having a highly-trained-and-motivated prosecutor "playing the legal game" to score political points against an overworked and underfunded public defender. But how can you be sure you only appoint open-minded, honest, unbiased judges?

Having the opportunity to state your own case in front of a selection of 12 random people has both a lower maximum but also a much higher minimum expected value.
My favourite comparison for all the 3rd party library use is, if you walked in to the CEO of your company and said

"we want to hire some people with no background checks, no interviews and no idea where they live to write code for our critical line of business application. We're then going to put that code into production without reviewing it, and regularly update it without reviewing the updates. Oh also we won't have any form of enforcable contract as come-back if something goes wrong."

You'd, at best, be laughed out of the room.

Yet that's exactly what pretty much every company does with 3rd party libs.
The problem is very easy to solve if the reward function (avoid altering the green life patterns) is specified. The aim in SafeLife version 1.0 (future versions will add more safety problems) is to find an agent/architecture that naturally has conservatism with respect to side effects, without being told which particular side effects in particular are bad.
You did't understand what I was saying.

foo.log(xyz);
bar.log(42);

vs

log_event(foo, xyz);
log_event(bar, 42);

Provided that both approaches do the same, which is more clear? It is the second one, because it clearly suggests that there is no polymorphic switching based on foo/bar.

Wading through non-trivial projects, pervasiveness of the first approach makes me nervous, because I'm told at every occasion, "don't even try to understand what's going on in the system globally. We .log(), shouldn't that be enough for you to know?".

While the second approach is calming to me, "You see, we have this simple logging system, where everything ends up being written to. It's not that complex after all, and if you want to know what's going on you can just jump directly to the log_event()" function.

Yes, by asserting that foo and bar are of the same type, and asserting that the .log() method is not virtual, I can reach the same conclusion. But that's the point, it requires work that you can't practically do if each line of code contains a method call. There is no mincing words, you're using the wrong syntax...
That's exactly what a hyphenated word is.

Scarcity (and resulting wages increase) wouldn't be as big if there were no foreign companies coming in. Either hiring fully remotely or opening up dev offices.

Purely local scarcity would have had similar effect but I believe it'd be much much much slower and with lower ceiling. Local companies paying 2x average wage seemed fine. You're making good money compared to your neighbours and feels sort of wrong to ask for more than your boss makes. Then foreign money come in and pay 4x average wage light it was nothing. Suddenly all the social stigma is removed.

That's literally what happened when a major bank's back-office was opened. They were willing to pay 1.5x-2x local market salaries and hire lots of people (compared to market size). Pretty much everybody in the industry had to follow, raising salaries effectively overnight.
That's a great idea, I'll take a look

Thanks for your answer. I actually have been carrying a physical notebook for years. It keeps me organised and helps me remember things, but I've found it difficult to be disciplined with journaling - I'm currently thinking software might help in solving that, in sending me a reminder to journal and a quick way to put down a few thoughts everyday.

> it had to be near 200 pounds (probably exaggerating, but it was heavy and extremely awkward to hold while moving with two people)

Only as anecdata, I stil have and use daily a "huge" Sony 32" trinitron as TV:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16060031

that is 75 Kg/165 lbs, so 100 Kg or more for a 36" seems just right (as said on the other thread I have a special table/support for it).

And BTW the only reason why I changed my good ol' (as well trinitron) 20" inch computer monitor with a "flat" 22" screen is because aging I see better the screen at a slightly increased distance (i.e. thanks to the reduced thickness I can have the screen some 30-40 cm farther on my desktop).
Perhaps we'll get a release for Christmas or something? I empathise with this point of view though. Luckily, it's in the "experimental" release branch, so you can at least test it out on your side projects and get used to the APIs.
I recommend using a static site generator. It brings precisely the features you ask for:

- easy SEO optimization, especially compared to SPA
- easy content management, GitOps
- fast, scales well
- free to host via various services (e.g. GitLab and GitHub)

Personally, I like Hugo. They have an amazing gallery of free templates: https://themes.gohugo.io/

Yes, this is one specific safety problem -- there are many other RL safety problems that deserve high quality benchmarks too. See eg https://arxiv.org/pdf/1606.06565.pdf or https://medium.com/@deepmindsafetyresearch/building-safe-art... for discussions of the problem space.

Wordpress is a great option, many large companies use Wordpress for landing pages (also the most popular on Builtwith). Its CMS also makes it easy to set up a blog, update pages, etc.

If you're not well versed with using Wordpress (like me) than there's 2 routes you can take:

Developer route: Use a static site generator. (not meant to be exhaustive)

- Gatsby: if you know React

- Hugo

- Jekyll: ruby

- simple HTML + CSS static website

Non Dev route: If you're not a developer, you could use one of the following paid tools:

- clickfunnels

- hubspot

- mailchimp

- leadpages

- unbounce

- and many more

If you're using a static site generator, it's really easy to host it on AWS Amplify Console for free.

I would personally use Jekyll, it's pretty easy to build, free to host (thanks to Netlify or Github pages), perfect for SEO since it's all static content.

NC was for MSDOS, ie. text-based CLI. It had a TUI. MC has a TUI, akin to NC's.

There's a plethora of dual pane file managers. I like fman (cross-platform), which is a bit akin to Sublime Text.
It also takes a very opinionated approach in how it does it. That's fine if you want it, but if you just want dramatically less verbose code but otherwise are completely happy sticking with the general principles of Java, something like Groovy is a nicer option.
I hate tutorials that don't explain you how something is actually implemented in the framework, as if you don't need to know your own tools.

I'm inferring suspense is based on exceptions to interrupt unrenderable components, but it would be nice if the author told me.
> We simply cannot think about such abstract concepts without introducing some sort of metaphor.

Metaphors are overrated. Often they obscures more than they explain, especially for such an abstract concept.

What if you had to explain "statements" with a metaphor? Or "expression"? I challenge anyone to come up with metaphors which help more than they confuse.

We learn programming concepts through examples, and seeing how they are useful. Not through metaphors.

I recently purchased a RetroTINK-2X, which is an inexpensive FPGA-based line doubler. It works on a line-by-line basis (as opposed to frame-by-frame like most upscalers) and so lag is virtually nonexistent. I don't have any experience of the more expensive setups like the OSSC or XRGB but it works great for my old consoles.

That said, I still generally prefer to use my PVM CRT monitor for gaming for reasons already discussed in this thread. It really can't be beaten.

And eventually revolutions topple the structures where value has concentrated when wealth disparity gets too big, and the cycle begins again. After several risen and fallen civilisations/empires, maybe its time to try something other than the one strategy that we for sure know the outcome of.

We don't need to be all equally well off, but we do need to compress the top and bottom 10% of the income disparity curve. No one on this planet should have billions of dollars in personal wealth, and no one on this planet should be too poor to afford shelter healthcare and food.

The problem is it's not though.

Kotlin isn't just more concise Java. It sets out to solve a whole set of other problems such as removing use of null pointers, enforcing immutability everywhere, etc. This has a dramatic influence on design philosophy. I'm sure if that's how you would have programmed java then its great. But if you actually just program Java normally (mutable state, null is acceptable, etc) then something like Groovy is a much more natural fit.

> Known bug lists

> 1. WYSIWYG

I agree. The first bug is that it is WYSIWYG. ;-)

Oh that's not what they meant. Or is it a clever innuendo ?

/Joke

## Praise of WYSIWYM (WYM for "what you mean")

Seriously, I wrote my Ph.D. as LaTeX source code with the help of LaTeX-mode in Emacs, including colored syntax highlighting, and was/am very happy.

As explained in a number of places, the point is to write for content without diluting your brainpower with appearance issues.

Moreover it is a common experience that proofreading a rendered copy allows the brain to more easily find typos without the filtering effect that cause one to miss them in a document being edited WYSIWYG fashion.

Also, editing source code has the nice property that there is no hidden state.
Ever been annoyed in Word or Google Docs by undesired formatting conflict on a copy-paste? (yes I know "paste as plain text") Also, bullet list with some bullets having mysteriously different appearance from their siblings and you can't fix it. With sane source document editing these issues cannot happen.

## What next

That said, imagine a hybrid future from assertions below:

* I now use asciidoc as it is simpler to edit (much simpler for things like tables), and have a toolchain that renders it to PDF via LaTeX (the xsl-fo path was never near as visually clean). I wrote a LaTeX style for my personal freelancing company (quotes, invoices, reports, technical documentation) and the fact that one cannot deviate from the style is a feature.

* Side-by-side source+rendered editing somehow can make sense.

* There is practical educational value to let newcomers benefit from LaTeX power and rendering quality with the WYSIWYG they still perceive as comfortable, some will migrate to source editing.

* This project could spawn some variants with other rendering engines.

* Did they solve all the problems with cursor positioning (see "text editing hates you" mentioned here on HN recently) ? In many cases, several visual positions correspond to same source position and vice versa.

* What will happen in practice is the tech will be applied to some other places, which is the very point of public research. That reminds me the project Boomerang. https://www.seas.upenn.edu/~harmony/ there is probably some common ground between those projects.
I just found https://voice.mozilla.org/

Besides being a great resource for speech analysis, this could be a real game changer for acquiring listening comprehension in a foreign language.

I feel that even after a few years of learning a new language I still have trouble with listening. Part of that is that it's often all or nothing, even one or two unknown words in a sentence means I can't understand the sentence. But worse is that most language teaching materials use a very small set of native speakers, which deprives the learner's brain of being able to generalize.
As someone who spent a few years working in home entertainment retail I can confirm that Trinitrons were by far the heaviest CRTs of any given size. They were truly excellent, though.
At most you can infer that I said that some prisons are closer to being concentration camps. However, you wrote "every prison", which is a much stronger statement and one that has no basis in fact.

Again I ask, were Japanese-Americans in the American West held in concentration camps during WWII, or not?

Many of the Japanese-Americans who were there have long fought to have those facilities (correctly, IMO) recognized as concentration camps, and high-level officials at the time, including Roosevelt, referred to them as concentration camps. Do you disagree with them?

Were the Japanese-Americans in the American West during WWII free to leave those facilities, and if so, what would happen if they were found in the exclusion zone?
This is a completely meaningless comparison. Even things that behave waaay more similar than cocaine and coffee in terms of brain chemistry can have even more disparate effects. And I was talking about the effects.
