This is sort of missing the point.

If my employer wants to make my employment contingent on not entertaining subversive thoughts, they'll have a heck of a time doing it today. Maybe they can e.g. devise some questionnaire or half-assed Voight-Kampff-style test that appeals to upper-middle-manager types with its high price tag and euphemistic-authoritarian marketing verbiage, but one has to imagine it would be fairly easy to fool.

So from a certain perspective, it's not really worth worrying about. But then, when they figure out how to really make it work, we're already living in a society where the theoretical concept of it is completely mainstream and acceptable, and at that point what will stop it from becoming the new status quo?
I was wondering if Central was still around. They used to be my SF go to when building my own PCs.
> e.g. the British system

There isn't a "british" system because health is devolved. There are four separate systems, one each for Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales, and England.

> requires a stringent cost-benefit-calculation

There are lots of problems with the English NHS, but this is almost never one of them. Unless you have particular examples?
> Consider the source, right? How many people without a large vested interest in the propagation and uptake of cryptocurrency consider further growth likely?

So 90% of this post's accuracy is unchanged whether the CEO of Coinbase was the CEO of Coinbase or not. Lets look at some of the points:

People are working on removing the surveillance aspect of cryptocurrencies. thats a truth that has nothing to do with adoption.

People are working on making them faster. that's a truth that has nothing to do with adoption.

The Chinese Government has said they will a central bank digital asset for currency. that's a truth that has nothing to do with bagholding other cryptocurrencies

Every industry experiences consolidation, it doesn't really take a soothsayer with a conflicting interest in to tell you that.

and so on
I don't think notifications would be possible easily without me having a backend server making tons of requests every second polling for new comments on a per user basis.

With that said, maybe I am uneducated because I had never heard of HNReplies. I am going to look into it now and see how they handle this problem!
>the use of public blockchains to automate the functions of clearinghouses and escrow services will be a huge cost reduction for many industries such as finance.

But we don't want financial transactions to be fully automated and immutable. We want escrow services to be subject to laws, we want a judicial undo and modify button. So if you remove the whole "no one can change history" bit because it's an anti-feature, it is unclear why we need blockchain in the first place.

I'll redily accept that my understanding of blockchain is limited, so I'm open to being told why I'm wrong. Consider this a strong opinion weakly held.
But if they could, why don't they, then?

I mean, would you willingly put a subpar product to market if you could do better?

I'm all for laziness, ignorance and greed explaining the decision-making of most people and companies (that much isn't even up for debate IMHO, and I include myself very much on average), but when presented with a choice I don't think most people avoid better decisions. In psychological studies, we always seem to try to reach the best outcome based on information available at the time — it's not even 'serious', it's because the human brain like to play, and consequently win, whatever the game / stakes. Like avoiding lava when walking on tiles in the street.
You're right my mistake. FairFight is a product of GameBlocks, which seems to be unaffiliated with DICE: https://opencorporates.com/companies/us_ca/201221610239
As I don't live in Indy or Chicago any more, I don't have any good solutions for you. I-65 isn't that bad a drive, and the windmills give you a nice eco-green feeling, even if the rest areas aren't so great.

The Greek Islands restaurant used to regularly drive a van to Chicago and back, because Kronos wouldn't ship their beef-lamb doner kebab cones for vertical gyro rotisseries all the way to Indy, so they were about the only place in town you could get a real gyro. I guess it's about the same for electronics.

You could maybe ask around the IUPUI or Purdue electronics engineering professors, or the robotic therapy/prosthetics lab at the IU hospital.
> Everything else the brexit crowd has produced is a steaming PoS of low quality lies

...which worked. If we accept what you are saying as true then it merely demonstrates the utter incompetence of the Remain crowd at effective communication (that they weren't even able to refute 'low quality lies'), which is kind of an important thing in a political debate.
If you can't do 1200 logs/sec with that hardware + elasticsearch, you've done something horrendously wrong.

You can do 1200 logs/sec with a container limited to 1 core and 256mb of memory running elasticsearch.
Yeah, I wouldn't expect that either. It's the only one not using native components as far as I know.
I dont know if I understood your need correctly, but I am using Dell D6000 usb-c dock with two displayport-connected monitors.

Dock works perfectly, cannot say the same on other Dell docks (TB15 and some other).
The difference between MakerDAO and Madoff is that MakerDAO, being on the blockchain, is completely auditable. You can see exactly where money is coming in and where money is going out. Websites such as DaiStats [1] provide basic stats based on this ability to audit MakerDAO. For instance, as of this post, there are 74,223,081.54 Dai in existence, 1,591,183 Ether currently being collateralized for Dai loans, and a bank surplus of 257,346.17 Dai collected in interest.

This level of transparency is the very opposite of Madoff.

> with an even more inefficient layer called the government.

Maybe in the US, other countries (e.g Australia) are not so inefficient.
I agree with what you're saying here, but the OP seemed to be going further than you are. I may have misinterpreted their intentions, but it seemed like they were holding the pharma exec to a different standard than his detractors.

The pharma exec in the article wasn't saying, "Please understand, this is a complex issue that shouldn't be considered in black and white terms." He said, using his own black-and-white thinking, (essentially) that he was virtuous for raising the price of the drug in question, claiming the moral high ground for himself. That's why his statement was so controversial.

The OP seemed to accept everything the pharma exec said at face value (seemingly, by virtue of his position as a pharma exec), while implying that the general public (at least those who were upset by the situation in question, and presumably not also experienced pharma execs) was incapable of complex thought regarding moral issues. To me, anyway, it sounded more like they were saying, "this guy's right and all you angry folks shouldn't be so simple-minded" than "hey, let's be reasonable here."

Of course, I could be completely misconstruing the OP's point. I'm not on any social media, and I generally shy away from the 24-hour "news" cycle, so I'm probably less sensitive to so-called outrage culture than most...
The app uses HyperTrack, which has a dashboard for aggregate trip metrics and individual trip summaries
There are several larger private chains, including at least one that has a built in decentralized marketplace. But adoption is very low. People may not know they care about private transactions until too late.

In the end, it might depend on a chain becoming popular first before people want to use privacy features on top of it, like using Ernst & Young's Nightfall protocol that's built on top of Ethereum.
Their logistics are absolutely phenomenal. The general practitioners I attended before One Medical always was overcrowded, any appointment required sitting in a waiting room for an hour past the appointment time until I finally got in.

For One Medical, it’s super easy to stop by for a 10 minute “something isn’t quite right” appointment, last minute travel immunizations, etc, and, at least in NY, it’s likely there’s an office within 10 mins of where I’m going to be in the city that day.

I think a specific practitioner makes a lot more sense if you’re often sorting out several long-term issues and having a long-term affiliation with one specific practitioner is important, but if you’re a yuppie in generally good health where you’re mostly looking for annual physical, and fantastic availability for quick “I’m sick and may need a prescription” visits and std tests and such, One Medical is perfect.
There are a lot of dark patterns in this world. Annual membership fees are not one of them.
I think building a toy app for yourself is among the best ways to decide for yourself which framework to go with!

The conclusions from the article were:

> Creating the Flutter application only took approximately ⅓ of the time it took to create both native applications combined. This proves how much time you save by using cross-platform frameworks. Their Hot Reload functionality also sped up the development cycle a lot.

> I was able to create the Flutter app faster than the React Native app, but that’s because I had more experience with Flutter than with React Native. I also didn’t know how to manage state properly in the React Native. That’s why declare both Flutter and React Native the winners of this experiment.

For performance, Bram wrote:

> It’s obvious that the CPU-usage of the Flutter application is smaller than that of the React Native and Xamarin Forms applications, and that’s why I declare Flutter the winner of this experiment.

> In the second experiment it was concluded that the Flutter application was less taxing on the CPU than the React Native and Xamarin Forms applications. This doesn’t automatically prove that Flutter is more performant than React Native or Xamarin Forms.

> There are a lot of features that the Cocktailr app doesn’t have, like caching for example. That would reduce the amount of network requests that need to be made and would make the app more performant, meaning that it could lead to different results. I also only used CPU-usage as a performance indicator. I don’t have any data on the memory or battery consumption for example. These are also an important performance indicators.

We at Wanderlog (https://wanderlog.com) are using React Native largely because the ecosystem around it is a bit more mature than Flutter's at the moment. It's definitely saved us time vs. writing native code. We've definitely run into issues, and I think the main things we'd want to test as alternate performance indicators if we were choosing a framework again are:

1. How performant/easy-to-implement are long scrolling lists

2. How easy is it to animate the dimensions of Views that affect layouts of other views

3. How many libraries are there for things that will be dealt with native code? Dealing with the boundary with native code is always going to be tough
So we're finally ok caffeine? I feel it is now almost as unavoidable as sugar in commercial food products (in that many products use it as a secondary 'enhancer' of some kind).
There are a number of features. The one most useful one is generated columns, which will allow use to get rid of a number of triggers.
It may have been a glitch. I can create new Aurora Postgres instances, with version 11.4 as the newest supported. RDS (non-Aurora) instances have support for 11.5.

None of the big 3 cloud vendors support PG 12 yet.

AWS generally is the first to provide support for newer versions, and they usually lag the PG release dates by 6-9 months for RDS and over 12 months for Aurora.

To my understanding, this capability set is roughly the same as what C# 8.0 support and what Java also targets. Just with a different keyword.

I'm Sohee Cha, and I'm looking for an entry or mid-level position as a visual designer. I say this because my strengths lie in visual design from over 5 years working as a graphic designer, but I am ultimately interested in moving my career towards product design.

I currently have 1 year of freelance UX/UI experience.
Forget about whether you’d find a partner because of your sun sign..what about predicting eclipses or comets or drought or famine or war. That’s astrology too, yes?
For POSIX systems, syslog is the standard way. For systemd-based ones, journald may be preferable because of its additional features; both support sending of logs to a remote server. I'd suggest to avoid custom logging facilities (including just writing into a file) whenever possible, since maintaining many services with each using custom logging becomes quite painful.
We don't have an account manager. Our account is too small. AWS doesn't usually respond to questions in the forums, either.
Many more people will play the fun game with cheating than will play the game you make to be “secure”.

In your game design not only is it dull because you have a 50:50 chance of having the right gun equipped to take advantage of a situation even if no one is cheating. But it’s still very amenable to cheating both because the cheat would be able to switch weapon the instant the client was informed of the state of the opponent, beating a human where it actually matters and would still be able to have a mechanically perfect aim.

Most videogames actually have the sort of human reaction prediction you are talking about and that’s why people cheat because they are bad at it. So make it up by exploiting information sent but not displayed or through mechanical assistance. The interesting case there is that mechanically good players that have a good read can beat cheaters.

Stuff like the DeepMind successes playing Chess, Go and Starcraft ultimately show that even with an environment where things are fairly level that computers have the edge in games albeit with an unattainable for cheat makers level of technology.
Was the same in the second half of the 90s with tech/internet companies. Only in hindsight can you point to the 5 that didn't fail, but at the time you wouldn't have been able to pick them out from the lineup, or the graveyard, they probably weren't your favorites or you hadn't heard of them. Many programmers and sales people weren't able to get jobs and had to question their life choices. Its not so different with the digital asset and ledger space, fortunately this time it is just an extension of "tech" so there is no real drought for people that were knowledgeable in the niche.
You can schedule an appointment very fast.
You have a way to buy things anonymously right now, it's called Bitcoin. If you mean a low-fee and frictionless way, it's unclear why that would ever develop. Unless everything you earn and do is anonymous, it seems to me that the transition between the anonymous store of value and your real identity (address, bank acct) will involve friction and cost.
My experience is that it's most important to keep your ears, hands, and torso warm, which I achieve with a windbreaker vest or jacket depending on how cold it is. Even if I'm a bit chilly when I leave, I'm certain to be warm when I arrive at my destination -- sometimes a bit too warm, but not nearly as sweaty as I would be if I were riding a regular bike instead of an e-bike.

- Exist a tool that allow to navigate structured logs easily, without bring a heavy machinery like ELF stack? and work in terminal?

- That also filter only ERRORS and few lines above/below?
I guess it matters whether you consider name mangling to be a part of the ABI. Name mangling used to change quite frequently.

Starting with VS 2015 Microsoft promised to make these changes much less frequent but AFAIK didn't promise to never make changes here. MSVCRT.DLL has kept stability but Microsoft makes no official promises about it. It's considered undocumented.

This is why the parent comment asks for a reason to wait for the dev version, rather than simply install their own distro.

If one does not want to install a distro, then this might be a reason to wait for pre-installed Ubuntu. But the parent is happy to install their own distro, and so is asking for an additional reason, relevant to them, to wait for the dev version.
This is the same kind of justification for taking the law into your own hands because you don't think that the justice system will do its job.
"statements regarding biological differences between the sexes were so harmful, discriminatory, and disruptive as to be unprotected"

I actually read the memo by Damore.

But OK, "batshit crazy" goes more for the "movement" as a whole. This is just crazy. Or maybe just legal weirdness?
It would be nice to see them enter (or re-enter) the Northern California market now that Fry’s has imploded. It seems like they have the niche figured out, and apart from Central Computers’ handful of good-but-small locations, they’d have the market to themselves.
attenuate: reduce the force, effect, or value of.
Well, yeah, I meant actually justify it. Anyone can throw together a few vague, semi-plausible sentences in the name of damage control.

I'm not even saying the pharma exec is wrong for what he did, but he clearly hired his employees and conducted research before jacking up the price of a drug that was approved by the FDA before he was born, so...
The slow bit of Matrix’s E2E by default isn’t the roll-out; we’ll also flip the switch when we get to that point. The problem instead was that we implemented way too many pre-E2E features (serverside search, etc) and have had to reimplement them to force everyone onto E2E.

So yeah, Signal’s approach to only roll out features if they’re privacy preserving is great. But it’s nothing to do with centralisation/decentralisation.
It's a common nootropic and enhances brain function. It's only the withdrawal effects that make it undesirable. Personally, I get a hell of a more useful effect from an -afinil.
“Privacy” seems to be used as a buzz word here. I can assume but no concrete idea what the author means by blockchain with built in privacy features
> League of Legends doesn't seem to suffer from bots

Depends on where you look. I used to see them a lot in certain game modes and when playing with friends that were new. As one commenter put it:

> To play devil's advocate here -- If you were to play summoner's rift AI games, ARAM, or even some summoner's rift on a sub-30 account late night EST you will be DROWNING in bots. They are EVERYWHERE. They also go almost entirely unpunished. You can track their summoner ID's through OPGG and watch them play the same champion 24 hours a day until 30, change name, and swap champions entirely.

> I tried to get some friends to come to league, and they all quit because their teammates were AI every single time. Not "lul ur bad r u a bot??" but a literal bot grinding exp to sell level 30 accounts. Sure, scripting Xeraths/Cassio's are much more rare -- but League has a huge bot problem sub-30.
Agree...I've been regular-biking year round in SLC for about 9 years. Rain isn't a problem with good gear, and fenders. Snow gets removed or melts quickly. It's the air quality on days with inversions that are the issue for me. I've biked in single digits, and you are quite warm when you push it.
> a culprit of his child and wife's death - on the other?

The guy who died made a mistake when overworked and without the normal safety systems backing him up, and without the Russian aircrew noticing and with the Russian aircrew ignoring TCAS. The Swiss found fault with the management chain that made the decisions involved to create the situation and none with the individual controller who made the mistake.

Calling him a "culprit" isn't a great match for the circumstances.

> In that case, aren't you with your ideas of jailing Kaloev for life, or other voices talking about even putting him on a death row - are just a mirrored image of those who cheered him for vendetta and murder?

You're putting words in my mouth. How can you read "Yah, I think the Swiss screwed up a little [in releasing him so early]" as advocacy for the death penalty? You're outright trolling at this point and it's a little sad.

In a just world, he would have done 7-15 years, and then not come home to celebrations of vendetta.
Ah, perhaps it was a glitch. I tried it just now and the Postgres option appears.
The linux laptop only ships with hardware that works with linux. In the past that meant no fingerprint reader. Similarly, the wifi cards could be different b/w windows and linux models. They seem to have added some support for fingerprint readers in linux in this generation. Also, you should wait for the icelake version (i.e., this version). Due to Intel's excellent naming convention, it may not be immediately obvious which laptop is which generation.
