I consider 30 years timeline as an optimistic scenario because we will have Super-Heavy rockets in operation in later half of 2020's, and from there onward the priorities for most major space agencies for manned spaceflight is return to the moon and in-situ resources. Which I believe should have been the focus for a while.

Most of innovation and commercial activity will be focused around lunar habitation and infrastructure, by the looks of it.

> the cost of treatment is in the tens of thousands of dollars[1].

It really isn't. That's like walking in to a car dealership, asking how much the car is, and then accepting the salesman's first offer at face value.

In reality, insurance will typically cover HCV treatment in the US. Because there's so much competition between HCV drugs, the insurers are able to negotiate deals that are less than a tenth of what the sticker price is.
What services allow U2F security keys but don't provide single-use recovery codes as backup?
I think that would be a different game (or puzzle, or whatever you call this), and a dumbed down one. Maybe better referred to as "one that is aimed at younger kids."

Taking away the counting is reducing the thinking they have to do. If that's your goal, ok, but I personally think the counting, while mixed in with the "set logic" part, is an important component.

I could agree that you could have two modes, where that is one of them.
From a purely epidemic control point of view the most rational path is to test this population as often as possible (every 6 months or less) and treat them immediately if testing positive. If you find people that reinfect rather than a bad thing this means you are being able to reach a core at-risk group.
You probably will be getting at least one bit of randomness out of it if the input is not saturated (As in not below 0 or above reference voltage ADC is using), just because pretty much all ADC are noisy enough that the last bit will be flipping. Of course that doesn't excuse every other problem with it

Most micros, ones used in various Arduinos included have fuse bits so there is at least the minimal level of protection. Question whether they used it even...
It surprises me that an article like this doesn't mention the Army Nuclear Power Program reactors like the truck-mounted, nitrogen-cooled military microreactor, the Mobile Low power-1 (ML-1) [1].

Or the Portable Medium power reactor (PM-3A) that ran McMurdo station in antarctica for nearly a decade [2].

Use TOTP (like Google Authenticator) as a backup method as well. It's helpful for scenarios like having to log in on a phone.
I tend to solve Minesweeper locally as much as possible, solving cordoned off sections where the answer doesn't rely on the rest of the board. A major benefit to doing it this way in traditional implementations is that if I'm forced to guess, the sooner I make an incorrect guess the sooner I move on to a solvable map.

While trying this out I've encountered several sections where I would have to guess, and that guess cannot be influenced by other unrevealed cells, such as when there's an island in a corner of the map.

In these situations I will need to guess between these two spaces, but since there are still known safe areas on the map, guessing causes me to lose the game.

I can get used to that behavior of course, but it's fairly frustrating. It'd be nice if the guessing exception rules accounted for situations like this. When there are clearings or known mine patterns that separate out discrete smaller map(s), I want to solve the smaller map(s) before I move on.
FYI, zig is the language that the most impressive embedded programmer I know is currently interested in to use for his embedded work (he does a lot of real time hard deadline things, like audio processing). I don’t know really anything about the language, but his interest in the language is enough to suggest other embedded programmers look into it.
It's hard defending freedom, as despots will always point to the worst known abuses of said freedom as justification for removing it.

I think a bigger/better question is: "How do we fix people, such that a majority of the population no longer falls for these kinds of tactics?"

[Edit] Some examples:

Support Free Speech? But you're giving a platform to hate!

Support E2E Encryption? But you're helping pedos evade justice!

Support body autonomy? But you're helping anti-vaxers!

Etc etc...
I don't think that cheating exists, unless you are prosecuted for it. For example, you don't fail a final for cheating, you fail a final for being caught doing something that someone paid by the Uni thinks is cheating. So unless you are punished by an active authority, you have not cheated. And thus, you can't cheat at software unless you are censured for it!
To add to this, when your ego mind drivers lead you to success giving you potentially unlimited resources - money and time, it is easier to maintain coping mechanisms of distraction - unless there's some traumatic or stressful enough event that "cracks" someone, causing an impetus and necessity to explore change.

For 2019, I had set myself several objectives but the one I have respected the most is to read 1 book/month (book or audiobook).

For 2020, I will:

- Read 1.5 books a month.

- Launch my startup while being employed (I am currently working on the product).

- Enjoy life and the people around me.

- Less time on social network.

- Travel to at least 3 new countries.

- Develop my photography (and videography) skill.

- Try to write more than I read on HN.

- Propose to the most wonderful woman.

- Save money, as always.
How would "productivity" be measured?

And who would measure it?

Assuming that additional government bureaucracy would be created for this (noble) purpose, what guarantee would we have that their decisions would be any more "rational" or "efficient" than the so-called "free market" system that currently exists in the US for determining salaries?

This is not a criticism of the author's underlying arguments, just a question about how he would implement the proposed remedy.
didnt read any of it but wonder if any of these investigations were driven by Edison directly or indirectly

The internet connection doesn't have to be on the UAS itself, it can be through a paired smartphone or something. Also if the UAS has a radio then it only needs to connect to the internet once at the beginning of the flight.

There are concerns about overwhelming the ADS-B spectrum with a bunch of drones. It's not ruled out entirely--there are exceptions--but they want to avoid a whole bunch of drones using it, yes.

Hardly anyone with a regular job can just decide to take a 12 week vacation. You'd either have to convince your employer to let you take an unpaid medical leave (and you'd need to have enough savings to survive for 3 months), or you'd need to quit your job and hope to find another when you get back (not that easy for those outside the tech industry).

Funny the author doesn't mention "caput" (Latin for head) as a possible root for "cap".
Here's the problem. Opponents won't frame it as "comfort" but rather as "death".

People die because we have liberty. If we take some of that liberty away (but not all of it), less people would die. Less people dying is a good thing, right?

- Take away some or all gun liberty. Less people will die in mass shootings, suicides, etc.

- Take away some or all speech liberty. Less people will die by suicide (esp. LGBTQ youth targeted by hate speech)

- Take away some or all liberty to purchase choking hazards such as Kinder Eggs and less children will die.

Basically, for every cause of death or public health issue, you can almost always limit liberty (in the form of laws, regulations, etc.) to mitigate the issue.

Until we as a people decide liberty is worth a few deaths, it'll be a (slow, because democracy is inefficient) race to the bottom.
Part of the problem is that social media is both personal interaction and a form of publication.

If you view social media as personal interaction then ask yourself how you would react to statements in real life. You would shut someone down if they threatened you or people you care about. I have seen people go so far as to threaten people's lives, but more veiled threats are also in the social space.

Call it censorship if you will. The definition of censorship I will leave to pundits. The pundits have decided to define social media as publication only.
People don't change their mind when they are confronted with opposing views. They double down and get more entrenched when that happens.

So letting people live in their bubbles might soften their conviction and keep them open to opposing ideas when they finally encounter them.

I wonder if we’re hitting a point where a better decompiler would be useful. Transliterate the code into your first language, English or not.
My dad was a licensed pilot (IFR with several other certifications, but small plane). My understanding of how the FAA handles regulations is that they tend to be onerous. I skimmed the doc, but going by that understanding, I'm not at all surprised that they'd propose a regulation that would effectively eliminate entire products because they'd be impossible to build in a compliant manner.

The law of unintended consequences lands pretty hard on government regulations -- mini-motorcycles come to mind; they don't fall into a category that can be made legal to use anywhere other than private property. And while there are certainly many products where "that's just fine", when things fall into that category, it makes it impossible/extremely expensive to get any form of insurance which could also be required in order to operate the thing in the first place[0].

If what you've written is true, without caveats, it'll be stifling to the market if it is has any chance of being enforced at all. A good chunk of the drone market is hobbyist and a lot of hobbyists have more hobbies than they have time. Unless they also have a regulatory compliance hobby to go along with it, a lot of them are likely to just give up on the whole thing.

Of course, this benefits makers of higher-priced drones meant for commercial markets. Some of the inexpensive drones are capable enough for professionals (or can be modded to be made capable enough) -- that's eating into sales of the $1000 -- probably far better -- drones. I'm not saying DJI or some of the larger drone makers are trying to game the system to eliminate smaller competitors, but it wouldn't really surprise me. The things they're expecting drone manufacturers to implement would require lower-priced drones to raise their prices to offset the cost. The more expensive drones might be able to cheapen-up elsewhere to offset, or they'll similarly pass that on to the consumer since bumping the price of a $1000 drone to $1050 would barely be noticed vs. a $150 drone costing $200 after being made compliant[1].

[0] Minibikes are a bad example, but the idea is that people will be less willing to buy/use a product (that requires skill to operate safely) if they cannot insure against a lawsuit when it hurts someone/causes some other form of harm that a lawyer can profitably latch onto.

[1] Hypothetical prices, obviously -- I don't understand everything that will be required nor who would be required to comply. I.e. If you can't sell non-compliant models, it'll bump up the price. If you can, it'll bump up the cost of ownership for those who aren't interested in explaining themselves to a judge/officer.
That is the opposite of my understanding based on two parts. As part of the protocol the UAS needs to be able to transmit:

> An indication of the emergency status of the UAS, which could include lost-link or downed aircraft.

I suppose this could possibly be done from the base station as well but manufacturers are going to have to get this certified for operation and I bet this will be sticking point.

The other one is this one:

> UAS would be required to broadcast identification and location information directly from the unmanned aircraft and simultaneously transmit that same information to a Remote ID USS through an internet connection.

While I suppose it could be read that the "directly from unmanned aircraft" might not apply to the internet connection portion I'm willing to bet that is the intent.

In this past decade, I went from being a naive 7 year old who had a vague idea of programming to a developer who is investing his time in his startup, i love doing it so im gonna keep doing it and as for resolutions, i guess i might try to get in good shape ( probably on the list of 1 in 3 people ), try out for Y Combinator Startup School Summer, keep building the services I'm building except get some more traction. :) that's probably it. simple.
oh and also, get away from MacOS. I'm starting to like Windows again after that 1909 update, i just realized after years of using MacOS that Windows had simply more flexibility than MacOS while at the same time not being unsupportive of game development as Linux ( Ik i can do game development on linux with extra effort but i don't wanna do that :) ).
Setting aside problems with this particular device, the whole "trust the open-source hardware" model is inherently flawed. Every useful security hardware will be commoditized, then faked and/or trojaned. We can't take the open-source software approach and rely on many volunteer eyes catching vulnerabilities and backdoors. First, there just aren't enough skilled professionals capable of proper hardware review. And second, how can you be sure the device in your hand strictly meets its specs? there's no such things as digital signatures and reproducible builds for hardware. Vendor reputation is all we have for now.

Can we do something about this?
I believe from the description of the game whichever one you choose at that point will be safe
I have worked at 3 startups for 3 years of my career. At one, I was a founder and seed-venture investor; that one lasted 8 years. It was the only company NOT run by criminals. Total out-of-pocket costs to me (in 2019 dollars) : $45,000 in 2 startups for shares and for options. Total return : $0. Total discount to market salary that I worked for : 33%. In 2 out of 3 startups, the CEOs (1) stole all the money and fled the country, or (2) conned the VCs out of $2.5m and shut down the business the next day after the final funding round (all monies went directly into CEO bank accounts.) Ask me what I think about startups .... Fuck startups.
You would have come up with it but you were too busy doing something else.

Thanks for reading!

A lot of the feedback I got after my one-year update was that I was overspending. I mostly disagree, though with acknowledgement that my businesses don't earn much money, so I don't have much of a leg to stand on in defying conventional wisdom.

The key disconnect is that people seem to be arguing that I should strive for profitability at all times, whereas my goal was to minimize the time to find high revenue. Once I find something that gains traction, I don't expect it to be that difficult to reduce costs. If take on more work myself in the name of lower costs, I might make a small profit sooner, but it would probably be longer until I find something that earns large profits.

There's obviously a limit. I can't afford to hire a whole team of developers just to speed up my projects. But $1-2k here and there to save me a week or two of work annually still feels reasonable to me.

Communication should be consensual. If I want to pre-emptively block some kind of content, or delegate such authority to some trusted third party, that's great. It's what we do with ad blockers all the time, which are less controversial here for some reason than self-defined "safe spaces."

If anything, the ability to block content as opposed to individual users would lead to more exposure to new viewpoints. For instance, I think Rod Dreher has lots of interesting things to say. But it seems like a quarter of his posts are rants about trans people using bathrooms, which I just don't have time for. And as a result I mostly skip everything he writes, including the good stuff. But if we built tools that emphasized filtering on content instead of people, it would simultaneously let us get presented with arguments we're actually interested in having and also not prejudge content by association with other content that shares the same author.
While Microsoft Office is the default, you have zero chance of changing the formats used in the business space. Full stop.

You reflected the example wrong though. Asking "How many blue cats are bouncing?" makes the presupposition that blue cats exist. "How many bottles of milk are in the fridge?" makes no presupposition of any kind. To demonstrate my point using your example: You ask: "How many of the milk bottles in the fridge are rancid?" I go to the fridge and see that there is no milk in the fridge. I now can't answer with any number at all, not even zero. Because if I say "None!" or "Zero!" then I will just have said: "I confirm that there is milk in the fridge, and state that none of it is rancid." which contradicts what I have just learned to be the truth.

This is not po-tay-to po-tah-to, people. It's a real thing.

There’s the U2F Zero https://github.com/conorpp/u2f-zero/wiki/Building-a-U2F-Toke... but of course there’s always a reflections-on-trusting-trust issue: you’ve got to get your CPU, CPU design, compiler, firmware and chip programmer somewhere!

I really like this new generation of "C replacements". I guess these are what I was hoping Go would be like but although it got part way there, it never quite fully achieved the combination of power, simplicity and ease of use I was looking for. It would be awesome if one of these would gain enough mainstream support that it didn't feel irresponsible to bring it into mainline use for work projects. For now though I just have to play with them on the side.
Is Google Authenticator tied to your smartphone, to your account, or a combination of both? Can you transfer it to another smartphone? Is it being backupped automatically?

Is this stricter than rules for small, manned propeller aircraft?

Arguably, they should be because there's a cost and training hurdle to being a pilot that isn't there for drones, so the risk drones pose to safety is greater than the average Cessna pilot.
> It's not like programming in x86_64 assembly suddenly opens a world of possibilities because its "truly low-level"

It certainly opens a world of possibilities regarding the vector units. That's one place where inner loops hand-written in assembly still have an edge. On the other hand, with contemporary CPUs, high quality assembly coding is a highly specialized job skill by itself, so for general purpose engineers, learning it is most likely to yield a bad cost/benefit.
So like Firefox Send with a bigger quota?
Sounds like cheating to me no less. You unroll the loops to uncheat.
We'd go a long way if we simply removed disruptive children from classrooms, and ensured that poor women have access to contraception and abortion. Right now its basically impossible to expel problematic students, particularly if they are African-American. We should also remove all programs that provide handouts for having children, and entirely replace them with tax credits. Marriage needs to be more greatly promoted in poor communities.
