> I agree with everything you said, but you didn't say anything that relates to medical benefits of THC for any specific use-cases.

I did, though I wasn't explicit. CBD has no discernible effect on CB1 receptors, and produces no anti-emetic effect. THC's CB1 agonism is directly responsible for its strong anti-emetic effect. CB1 agonism also has effects on pain perception and processes in the gut.

CBD has no discernible effect on CB2 receptors, while THC does. CB2 agonism is responsible for effects on immune system, inflammation via autoimmune responses and inflammation in the GI tract associated with IBS, Crohn's and UC.

Theatre.js | Onsite & REMOTE (We're in Berlin & Helsinki) | VISA | Full-Time | https://www.theatrejs.com

Tags: Design tools, HCI, PL, Animation, React, TypeScript, Node.js, Rust

The product is a design tool that brings high-fidelity design and motion graphics to web and mobile.

Long-term goal is to expand this into a design tool for dynamic systems (apps, generative art, explorable explanations). We aim to blur the line between designer/developer, author/consumer, and artist/scientist.

Our inspiration comes from the work of Ivan Sutherland, Seymour Papert, Bret Victor, and others.

Positions:

- Principal software engineer / CTO: You'll be leading a team of senior and junior developers, through rapid product iteration, and ambitious, one-of-a-kind technical challenges. Current challenges range from a real-time multiplayer editing environment with branching history, to a high-performance animation engine for web and mobile.

- Visual designer (Branding/UI/UX/Motion): You'll be joining our team of HCI researchers, elevating their designs with gorgeous aesthetics. A solid portfolio demonstrating a love of cinematic visuals and meaningful motion design would be a great plus.

This is a startup and we're in the middle of raising our first round. You'll be part of the core team of 6, with all the excitement/responsibility/growth that entails :)

But you've figuratively lost "literally".
You've just made it really easy to get a complete map of all sensitive locations... one hopes the nation's enemies aren't clever enough to publish an app.
I tend to agree. The entire "Don't Be Evil" thing planted a bizarre idea in a lot of people's heads that this particular faceless corporate giant would be different and better.

That's nice to hear. Best of luck with your project.

We've had some really large companies move to Stream from their in-house tech and save 30-70% comparing Stream's monthly fees vs their in-house hosting. (the difference gets much larger if you add the engineering & maintenance cost of their in-house systems). If your team is in the USA & funded it's pretty difficult to build in-house with a good ROI.

Neither did I, just pointing out that someone's POV might colour what they perceive as justified vs not.
That's pretty cool. I had a few old drives and on purpose took them apart. So far I was not able to duplicate what you were able to do (this was last month). I had an idea that it might work in some way. Glad that you can confirm it did at least when you tried.
Dynamic programming has always been a common interview problem for the past 15 years.

Scary to think what conditions those animals had to live in that selling 1lb for 1$ is even remotely profitable.
Suprisingly long. I've played around with that a bit a while ago and sometimes up to minutes later you could still recover recognizable bitmaps. But definitely not something you should rely on if you want a bit perfect copy, the first bits start to flip immediately upon power loss, some of them take a lot longer and our brain is pretty good at such reconstruction from noisy data, especially if it knows what it is looking at.

I guess the higher the RAM capacity the shorter it would be because of the decrease in physical cell size.
I'm pretty sure the title of VP(E) is like the Ice King's crown in Adventure Time. It makes you a bumbling autocrat driven to secure your own position. Re-orgs, re-writes, etc are great instruments for this end.
Sativa-dominant strains have psychedelic qualities, offering dramatic introspective, frame-shifting experience. It isn't as profound an experience as one from psilocybin, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I've experienced realizations while under the influence of sativa dominant strains similar to, if not greater than, those uncovered during therapy with a psychologist. However, other times the re-framing of reality was simply fiction or not as epic as what it felt like while under the influence. Since the experience is so introspective for me, I partake in it sparingly, in the right settings where I can get the most medicinal value from it.
Fairbanc | Software Engineer | Jakarta, Indonesia | Full-time | Remote

Fairbanc is a startup providing fair credit to micro-merchants in Southeast Asia with a start in Bangladesh and now our expansion into Indonesia. Following on my work as CTO at Kiva.org to provide micro-loans to the world, I came on as Co-Founder and CTO at Fairbanc to help provide for this underserved market in places with huge economic potential and a chance to help do more good in the world serving those who currently don't have access to credit. Looking for a local Indonesian software engineer to join our small team and grow with us! We are seed-funded and rapidly growing. Remote is ok, but must be a citizen of Indonesia, ideally in Jakarta. Get in touch with me through my email in my profile if you are interested!
Possibly so obvious it's not worth pointing out, but client side caching is also important for server side scaling. If your clients cache X% of responses, you can generally get away with ~X% fewer API servers.

So even if client performance doesn't improve much you should probably still cache.
There's several bug reports attached to this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=264354

This probably could have been solved for HTTPS though, if you negotiate to http/1.1 via ALPN, then pipelining could be OK? Otherwise, http/1.1 with keepalive only should be used?
True. At least on desktop it's easier to keep another screen with more height available, tho.

ETA: with laptop bezels shrinking, it's possible we'll see an increasing number of 16:10 screens in 13" and smaller models as a way to ensure there's enough room for both a decent sized keyboard and decent sized trackpad.

That or we'll see a return to the godawful mouse nipple.
And some have quit for as-yet-undisclosed colossal fuckups. Google's inherent belief that it is the "good guy" in all things internet has fed a massive hubris. That hubris has led to inherent blindness to its detrimental effects on the wider internet and a hero complex. When in reality, they are just like all other mega corporations: interested in only one thing: maximum dollars, and they do this by tilting the tables to make all the quarters slide into their pocket. When you're huge, the urge to take up your power to do this becomes overwhelming. It comes in fits and starts at first, until the culture rots, and soon you're rolling downhill into full-blown corrupt self-dealing and monopoly tactics.

Google's on its way. And it's too big to fail, except it will, and we'll be shocked at the reach of its surveillance capabilities at the fire sale.
you'd have gotten a lot more agreement if you had explicitly limited your argument to recording only your own private property, by placement or otherwise.

most folks (especially us americans) accept personal propertly rights implicitly, so there's no need to vigorously defend them, especially when that defense implies caring only about yourself and not others.
We are a two-person web development team (also hireable individually) with extensive experience in architecting, building, and managing large custom-made applications.

Recent projects: https://codetree.co/case-studies

Throughout the last decade we built Airbnb-like platforms, music streaming apps, healthcare/finance/construction apps, real-time GPS vehicle tracking suites, worked on core systems of big data platforms (millions of daily transactions) and more.

We mostly collaborate with companies, but also have a lot of positive experiences assuming CTO-for-hire roles to work with non-technical founders.

To be fair I should have documented each of those occurrences knowing that such communications were improper and I didn't.

Also, it wasn't the company that failed in this regard. It was specifically the manager. Without evidence either way though clearly a conflict had occurred and HR would have to make some determination. If I were in the position of HR I would have educated the manager on the proper way to administrate their concerns to cover the company, which is what I suspect happened.

Since leave, disability, and discrimination in general are hard to prove for all parties involved typically the biggest threat isn't immediate legal consequences. More concerning is reputational harm should something like that could be exposed. Many large companies offload managing these responsibilities unto external contracting vendors to ensure both the company is entirely insulated from malfeasance and the employee is fully protected.
Rule 0 should always be the one from Tron: Fight for the users.

In this case, "if the user isn't gonna need it, don't bother."
I would agree with this. Personally I've tried to choose companies whose products are fully free/libre, and for the most part have had success with that. I am no RMS, but I have a strong preference for open solutions. Because of that my sample set is certainly biased toward others who at least feel the same.

One day we'll be able to buy Psilocybin supplements on the shelves of stores like CBD, 5-HTP, and St. Johns Wort today.

Funnily enough I argue against the construction of roads too and I don't own a car. So I suppose at least I am consistent, eh?

Cars are unsafe, expensive and make cities unwalkable. I would rather Australia beefed up its train network & river freight rather than this mania for cars.

> There is legitimate, marginally viable technology honed and perfected in Australia that always remains on the cusp because of endemic favourable treatment for fossil fuel and lack of strong support and willingness to invest.

Sounds pretty marginal, he might not be factoring in the consequences for grid stability in his calculations. It isn't just a raw numbers game.

> Also the suggestion that Australian research cannot make a difference I find unfathomable.

We are doing research, it probably is making a difference. If you go to UNSW the first building you run in to is the great big energy research facility. It wouldn't be too hard to get support for more research into better energy if anyone cared. And for all people blame the Australian right for coal they are the ones who push for dropping the effective ban on nuclear power in Australia and maybe doing some R & D on that front. It was much more promising technology than solar for most of the lest 50 years.
This is interesting as public performance art, but has nothing to do with either philosophy or realistic solutions to climate change and mass extinction.

If somebody was being overtly racist, I would not feel better knowing that they've then been put through diversity training.

Why? Because I don't think it likely that diversity training would convince the racist to stop being a racist. It may teach the racist to conceal his racism, which from the corporation's perspective might well be good enough, but a crypto-racist is still a racist and would still make me feel uncomfortable.

Or to put this another way, how many sessions of diversity training would you need to put James Damore through before the women of google felt comfortable working with him?
Philosophy is precisely what is needed to question what we mean by progress. I think the interpretation of what Plato meant is an eternally foundational question for one who seeks to know.
I was being facetious; it appears it is your theory of mind which is lacking. Of course, this is no grave fault of yours. Noticing these subtle tricks takes special acuity. After a few dozen more Google queries and even examination of several different platforms entirely, the picture becomes much clearer.

Well I have a theory. The article mentions that some of the videos are being posted on Hindi language channels. India has some pretty restrictive pornography laws. According to the wikipedia page I just read, it's illegal to publish or transmit pornography in India. I think this is some ass backwards attempt to circumvent pornography distribution laws in India.

> Our tax system incentivizes larger families and redistributes wealth.

Do you have a shred of evidence to back this up?

In reality, the situation is the opposite: places with higher taxes that pay for better government services see a declining birth rate.

Taxes pay for a social safety net and birth control. Both of those things cause birth rates to go down, not up. By contrast, large families are the safety net in places with riskier economies and poorer public health.
He's fine, but had to stop working on HN for the time being. Our loss.
I always wondered why Google needs hundreds of VP's? Is i just a scheme with them giving each other great peer feedback and promoting more to extract huge salaries from the company?

Plants can be infected with viruses, bacteria, fungus, and of course pests. It doesn't all come from contaminated water either.
I am not sure the analogy applies.

First off we are talking about benign matters like employees' opinions, not trade secrets (common sense would prevent the latter from leaking).

Second, I am not advocating to force anyone to disclose anything, but merely for them to have the potential to do so if they wish. If you trust them enough to complete the task then surely you should also trust their common sense about what to talk and not talk about (trade secrets, etc) to the press?

If the thought of anyone being able to "ruin" the company's reputation by airing dirty laundry is scary, then maybe fix the root cause instead of the symptoms and ask yourself 1) why is there dirty laundry to begin with? and 2) why would the employee be unhappy enough to leak it?

There are tons of happy small businesses with no such thing as "PR" nor media policy (just employees' common sense) and they don't seem to implode, because either there's no dirty laundry or the employees are paid & treated well enough to not put the company in disrepute. It's like mutual trust & respect.
Images from space reveal the shocking extent of Australia bushfire crisis
Interesting one of the first 'tales' I read about was some person in (I think) Sweden who took his drives home in his car with heated seats. And when they needed to use them they wouldn't work. The point was 'you have to test backups'. Now that I am thinking of it possible this was even with tapes not hard drives.

By the way with that video I am also thinking maybe it wasn't the magnet that scrambled the drive but some other force that was applied as a result of the effect of the magnet on chips or the laptop. [1]

[1] I don't think that was what happened but the test does not isolate the drive from any other possible impact is my point.
Did you know that Damor filed a complaint with the National Labor Board?

“ ... an internal NLRB memo found that his firing was legal. The memo, which was not released publicly until February 2018, said that while the law shielded him from being fired solely for criticizing Google, it did not protect discriminatory statements, that his memo's "statements regarding biological differences between the sexes were so harmful, discriminatory, and disruptive as to be unprotected", and that these "discriminatory statements", not his criticisms of Google, were the reason for his firing.“
