(Sorry, I'd deleted the sentence you quoted right as you replied).

I don't mind them raising prices as is needed.

I'm complaining specifically about price gouging. For example, it cost me $8 to travel from my house to a bar the other night, to meet up with some friends. Then it started drizzling, and I had to pay $40 for the ride home.

I get that they're taking advantage of temporary increased demand, but it's not a good customer experience, and next time I'll arrange another way to travel.
Even "touch" as a sense makes no sense. Feeling pressure and feeling heat exchange are completely different senses. In addition to that there's obviously a kind of pain felt by the skin that is neither extreme pressure nor a temperature extreme but an indicator of skin damage.

Then there's proprioception as mentioned in the article, the sense of balance/acceleration as measured in our ears, and together with smell, sound, taste and sight we are already at 9 senses.

And as you mention many of the things we actually perceive are derived from many senses. The "taste" of a steak is a mix of smell and taste, your balance is a mix of sight and your acceleration, temperature is something we can't actually fell but can derive from how much heat enters or leaves our body, "pain" is a giant category spanning nearly all senses, etc.
What are you on about? R has a specific use, which is statistics and data science. For those purposes it reins supreme. Even for developing dashboards, R-Shiny is a breeze compared to Pythons's Dash. R is awesome.

I agree in theory, but in practice taxis are significantly more expensive than even Uber. And you don’t know the price upfront. I don’t think I’ve ever had a taxi experience where I was happy with the value, at least in the USA.

at the very least when you start having meaningful conversations with your kids (about 3-4 years).
Thank you for sharing that. PG doesn't seem to realize there's a tremendous survivorship bias in what you read about kids due to the taboo of saying you regret it.
Supremacy is for racists – use ‘quantum advantage’
Very few BASICs had that. Atari BASIC and the Simons' BASIC add-on for C64 BASIC (CGOTO) both had it.
I work at a company that makes a niche ERP. The owner wrote the original in Basis International's BBX. Within the last ten years, the company ported the ERP to Java. But, we still use it as a code generator for our dao layer and half the views. Quarterly, I'll go in there to change the templates to improve our dao.

It gets the job done. Part of my reticence is ignorance. I might have a meaningful opinion if I were familiar with more than just println and single line if/else. I am glad I don't need to plan for line numbering in any other realm.
Not everybody is an egotist. Your system of values is not the same as everybody else. If you think this way, good for you, but other people care about other humans.
I mean you're right, but just stating your position usually actually makes this sort of stuff go away before anyone involves a lawyer, regardless of what the law (or precedence, as tends to be more important in the UK) suggests.

For the record, I've used solicitors before and it was a ball-ache. The first thing they tell you is the judges want you to have at least made an attempt at discourse before you can go to court.
What Type of Thinker Are You?
Note, though, that the author's company does sell online child safety as their main product. I'm not saying I think they played any particular tricks, but... I dunno, To Catch a Predator made it sound like they just put up innocent profiles too.

> Sun and Microsoft wouldn't have built and pushed Java and C# in the first place if there hadn't been a real need for safer languages.

Excepted they were safer languages before Java and C#: Ada, Lisp, All the ML family.... And all of them never lift off.

Java and C# have been successful because they were accessible and easy to learn ( partially due to their memory model), not because they were safe.

As a parenthesis, a beautiful side effect of that has also been an entire generation of programmer that has no clue of the memory model their language use underneath, because "it's managed", because it's GC.....without even realising that their 50 Millions nested/mutual object graph will make the GC on its knees on production. With the results we all know today.
This is a super helpful guide! Thanks!
UK had the same speeding ticket fine based on income years ago. Not sure if they still do.
> There is a blatant conflation of wildly different issues in this thread. Downloading child pornography is not cybersex, and neither one is kidnapping/molestation.

Is there evidence that no correlation exists between downloading child porn and soliciting minors for sex online? It seems oddly pedantic to insist that only a lack of critical thinking ability could lead one to assume that behaviors on the same platform which try to satisfy the same form of sexual urge might be related, because they're not literally the same.

>For example, the idea that grabbing the perps from the story means there are fewer kidnappers is highly wishful thinking.

I mean... there are n fewer for n arrests. The set of all child predators may be undefined, but it isn't infinite. Are you arguing that law enforcement shouldn't bother attempting to investigate or arrest criminals because crime still persists?

>The only solution I can see working is curated whitelist-only environments, the same way you drop kids off at a purpose-tailored daycare rather than a downtown alley or a prison.

Why can't multiple solutions work? Why should the only acceptable solution be society retreating behind walled gardens and simply accepting that pedophiles will (even, for the sake of maximizing freedom of speech, should) be left alone to freely operate in any public space?

Although I do agree that children probably shouldn't be on these networks, and better curation would definitely be a good idea (particularly where PMs are concerned,) I also believe a public platform has every right to moderate activity and police itself.

> Anonymity in general is important for a whole host of marginalized peoples, and there are many interests that wish to erode it for their own nefarious ends.

And speaking of blatant conflation, it seems like all such interests are assumed to be nefarious in these discussions, and everything is a slippery slope towards the camps.
I hadn't; this was really fascinating. Thanks for sharing!
That's not the rule here. In fact the rule is that you should not complain about pay walls.
I guess technically the Via Nano (2008) was an x86_64 ISA chip, but their previous cores were all 32-bit and they haven't actually productized the chip in the article yet. The Nano was functionally obsolete long before Spectre and Meltdown cropped up. So I don't believe GP was considering Centaur in the category "x86_64 vendor," which is maybe pedantically incorrect but probably broadly reasonable given the context.
And it’s important for kids to learn to entertain themselves. In this time of YouTube and social media and all the other things that are trying to grab kids time, they still need to learn how to be at peace with themselves.
I think they mean:

> How long will [the MacOS hypervisor framework] exist?
That's just not how neural networks learn. They generally can't "watch" others to learn.

In the example above, at no point the neural network would be watching the video footage. The reference footage is just used for (automatically) scoring how well it does during training. It's not fed into the network itself in any shape or form.
And yet, if your arm was broken, I bet you'd see a doctor. An IP disagreement with an employer is an acute, not a chronic condition. When you don't have years to acquire the knowledge yourself, you go talk to someone who already has.
Tinder almost certainly still discriminates pricing based on age. A friend of mine signed up for two new accounts a couple months back and the account where he listed his age as in his 20s would have been half the price as for an upgrade subscription for the one where he was listed as being in his 30s.

Maybe they are using other factors, maybe he was in a different part of town when he signed up. Maybe it has to do with the school or the job listed in each account. You don’t know, and therefore you can’t prove anything. As long as the algorithms are a black box it’s hard to take a company to court over discrimination.
It has a constant negative effect so you need a penalty that has a constant discouraging effect.

A flat fee doesn't discourage those with more money to pay it. It simply says "speeding is OK if you have enough money."
The idea that a female character with negative traits is evidence of misogyny is silly.

It would be but that's not the idea advanced in the article - the claim is that the wife is represented too absurdly negatively and the author supports this with, among other things, a reference to an exchange between Williams and his agent. The charge of misogyny is aimed at Williams, not Stoner.
This is very true, which is (for example) where the skill in high level poker comes from.
This right here is already happening in pricing for Uber passes. I’ve had the first month’s pass for a dirt cheap price and then it kept increasing over the months until I discovered I was not happy paying an increasing price. So, one month I did not renew my pass and bam - the price went back to its lower default price again...
nonono I didn't meant to put 'both sides' on the same level, especially in the streets.
> Therefore, if the rate is higher for some people, it's either insufficiently disincentivizing poorer people from speeding, or excessively disincentivizing richer people.

I don't understand how you reached this conclusion.

> Speeding has a constant negative effect on society. It doesn't vary based on how wealthy the speeder is.

The point of a speeding ticket isn't to make things right or to make amends for the bad effects of irresponsible driving. That would be impossible, since people die. The point of a speeding ticket is to serve as a carrot, or to be "pigovian" to use the term that you just made me look up. Since you understand that well enough to apply the word, I don't see why you could possibly argue that they should be constant, since 1% of people or so can (and do) just straight up ignore the law otherwise. A frequently reposted thread explains the reasoning well - https://i.imgur.com/3OeKrA2.jpg
Well I can only speak personally, but if I have a strong opinion on something, I prefer to be quite knowledgeable about the topic. Having public opinions on aesthetic matters while knowingly admitting ignorance seems pretty foolish and close-minded to me.

And no I wouldn’t agree that aesthetics is a curiosity; I think it’s perhaps one of the most important topics there is. Wittgenstein, Nietzsche and countless others would agree.
I had a professor in college who contracted for them doing formal verification of their CPUs, in case you’re wondering.
Of course after having kids there is no way back, so people try to convince themselves and others of what a great experience it is...
Writing an emulator is a great project indeed. I've been working on my GBA emulator for almost a year now and I learned so many different things about hardware, assembly programming and video output.
For the first few years I spent more time thinking about projects rather than actually implementing them. Often this pays of in the long run as you have a much better design by the end and save all that wasted time when you change part way through a project. Plus it made me feel better.
Because pinging another server for a few bytes of data and offloading that working memory to the client side is much more efficient than storing the session data in server memory in between requests. Furthermore a single coordinating key server can work in conjunction with many micro-services to simplify architecture, security, and hardware requirements.
Well, the bounty nowadays is $0. :-)

I have given up until I have the proper time along with a friend to try to crack the game insides in our own. If anyone did this for now, it'd be for the community.
There's some surplus, in theory, from increasing utilization of privately-owned cars: they're a pretty huge capital investment that no one wrings 100% of the value out of. Though I don't think this counterbalances the points you bring up
Ok thanks, the japanese video games + anime answer puts it into perspective, I hadn't thought of that. I could see how growing up with either of those would mean listening to that music then would bring good memories or feelings back.

I was just in the process of replying to your comment and question when you replaced it with that snarky one-liner.

HN is a highly international community. Plenty of international stories appear here. Nor does HN being an English-language site imply any disrespect for other languages, including the wonderful German language. Quite the contrary.

In this case the language issue is secondary anyhow, since "politician is working on drafting a bill" is an even less substantive story than "politician introduces bill", which is one of the classics of off-topicness for HN (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...). We would have demoted the story regardless of the language it was written in.

In cases like this, we've learned that there's no harm in waiting for a story to actually become real before having a thread about it. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...
I really just look forward to the day when my kid can be unsupervised in another part of the house without an appreciable probability of some stupid coin-swallowing, furniture-toppling or power plug licking death.
Some psycologists have looked into this. There are/were societies that treated sex as natural, even between children (not between adults and children though), but they did not have the level of technological development we do today. I have no desire to research any further into it.
That's the point, reading alternative perspective open up my mind.

Women do understand what men experience online, because many men have developed a massive victim complex lately and won't stop trying to derail every mention of something women experience online to talk about themselves.
A constant fine has a constant discouraging effect.
Mainly because the assembler I knew I had on my computer was the GNU assembler and it uses that syntax. I did quickly try the .intel_syntax directive but it was just easier to change it around as the code was so short.

Most of my assembler experience is with 6502 or ARM.
A particular interest of mine is the perception of being watched. What sense is that?! Dean Radin has some very interesting studies on it, some of which extend to being watched through security cameras.
Why We Sleep
What makes you think that I don't care about other humans?

Your original post essentially claims that people shouldn't do things for their amusement.

From my perspective, without fun, there's no point in even bothering. Why feed myself and my fellow man if all we do is struggle?

I'm not sure that there actually _are_ any more "real" problems to solve in programming, if by "real" you mean things that significantly reduce human suffering. Those problems are political.
I think the Uber model has more specifically relied on massive driver incentives and high acquisition costs.

People quit when the numbers stop making sense for them, they don't always just stay in the underclass. The high cost of acquisition and incentives they did historically reflect a lot of driver churn.
I've never been incarcerated, but the open source path worked for me. But on the other hand, my family is well off enough that I could afford a year writing code for free. I'd imagine that most people getting out of prison need to earn a living right away.
Just like setting a cookie that I didn't agree for setting other cookies :)
It doesn't work too well in high-income countries anywhere, because cost of living is relatively high and then people don't want to pay those kinds of fares to support taxi drivers entering the industry. You don't really see this in Korea or Japan, for example. Where this kind of informal taxi arrangement happened in the US pre-Uber (e.g. New York dollar vans) it was mostly lower-income immigrant communities willing to accept a lower standard of living.

It's similar to why you don't really see, for example, maids in middle class homes in high-income countries, but those are relatively common where wages are lower.
Once flexbox understanding kicks-in, it becomes the most efficient way to create layouts by far.
Yep, that was what finally made him a billionaire. Probably Apple phase 2 well surpassed that by the end, but I think the first fortune is the most important Apple 1. Millionaire by 21 I think.
How would you calculate the number sequence out to infinity?
This. Clearly this has to be the stable state for these services. A taxi is naturally free to operate in a way they see fit (finding narrow strategies and routes) while an Uber is constrained by a routing system. If you find a taxi, you can expect to pay a more optimized fare considering market dynamics, while an Uber has to suffer very suboptimal requests.

In cities like Vancouver, taxis seem to spend much less time idling than Ubers in SF.
Are you seriously suggesting that it's immoral to spend one's time working on projects whose primary goals are personal pleasure and enrichment?
there are less than three thousand billionaires in the whole world. they could all drive like it was a formula 1 grand prix 24/7 and it would create a barely measurable blip in traffic fatalities. somewhere between ten and fifteen percent of americans are driving without insurance. I'm a lot more worried about them than the one lambo I see every couple months.
Yup. The amount of times I've heard "The telephone companies wouldn't let anyone just pretend to be 911, would they?" is stunning. By the time people are speaking to the scammer, they've already been fooled once.
> I also think there's a very strong cognitive/information processing in the moment aspect to athleticism as well

This higher level processing is called intelligence, "bodily-kinesthetic" intelligence. It's just an aspect of the intelligence model like IQ or EQ etc.
But they do build on previous knowledge (that's the training part), it's just the such knowledge is built from scratch, rather than taught by others.
The idea that white skinned boreal countries will become the future's "third world" is pure fiction.

The third world is characterized by not having, for example, a functioning transportation infrastructure. If Finland can't realistically charge their cars from solar and their choice is between paying somewhat more per kWh than Venezuela by using nuclear or some other non-photovoltaic power generation method vs. not continuing to have a transportation infrastructure, they're not going to stop having a transportation infrastructure.

And it's a damn stretch to frame this as a racial issue. You can expect places like India and Mexico to benefit from cheap solar, but only to about the same extent as "white people" places like the US and Australia. You would have to be an especially silly racist to hang your racial animus on solar power when you can reasonably expect more of the industry to set up shop in Arizona than Zimbabwe.
I assume would fire an employee that's underperforming.

You haven't actually refuted the point of this article. You can do one thing better than two. If you believe in your startup, then you'll do it better working on it fulltime. Else, if you believe in the startup you're working for, then just focus on that. You will probably get better outcomes on either front.

This isn't a legal argument, it's general advice. He also didn't say you can't do a full-time job and a startup on the side. He said it's hard to excel at your job when you're doing a startup on the side.
> Not only bullshit, but harmful, debunked bullshit.

Debunked in the opinion section? He was gunned down under suspicious circumstances. It's not less suspicious if you believe a gangster did it rather than a hired assassin, and regardless, giving Assange documents doesn't cast a magical force field protecting one from street robberies.

Did Russians hack the DNC? Probably -- Russian botnets attempt to brute-force basically every internet-exposed endpoint around the clock, just check your logs. It's neither here nor there.

>He had a TV show on the Russian state propaganda network where he tore into Hillary Clinton all day. How much more gift-wrapped would you like his intentions to be?

>I don't care if you can code, only people lacking in critical thought capacity (being diplomatic) believe conspiracy theories with no proof other than it fits their worldview.

Right, because "Assange is a Russian operative" is apparently not a conspiracy theory, because allowing RT to broadcast your TV series is apparently all the proof we need. Larry King, Jesse Ventura, and the late Ed Schultz are therefore also Putin lackeys, because there's no other explanation for cooperating with a television network that claims penetration into 700M households worldwide, just like there's no reason to ever have any business dealings or attend any meetings in a country that hosts two of the world's largest cities (Moscow home to 12M and St. Petersburg home to 6M). True Americans work only with local network affiliates and never venture outside of their small towns.
Your assertion is true but you missed the point. Completely.

Let me clarify - the process by which commenters gleefully (damn that’s a nice word) add things to the list is illustrative of how things got added to the interview process. No one ever said something (or anything) should be done before interview.

Now as for “tackling before you die”.

If your name is Bobby Wagner, than by all means, tackle, it’s your job, but please do not die.

If you are programmer, you are not obliged to neither.
Drivers usually accept new rides while in the middle of driving though. Do you really want an army of distracted drivers on their phones participating in a complicated bidding process?
> The #1 thing I've learned is that kids love to help

This this this a 1000 times. Feeling needed, learning to help, and being rewarded with happy words and a clear sense of success and achievement is like a hard drug.

Every children will lean towards different activities; involving them will need a slightly different approach; and you will need to learn patience while they learn, so it's not a trivial task, but IME if you work it out, it works wonders even with the most challenged (or challenging) kids.
It is interesting to see his choices.

- Picking Salah and making him captain makes sense because of his form uptick and the opposition being someone he scores against.

- So did keeping Leicester and Sheffield players, though he was unlucky with the unexpected result at Leicester.

- I am surprised he kept Alli in but left the Wolves player out, I would expect Wolves to score and possibly win as well. But he is #1, so we will find out tomorrow.
