I gather that Aegis took its inpiration from Multics, which I have not studied, but is said to rely very heavily on memory mapping. Aegis ran on custom bit-slice re-implementations of the 68000, and later on 68020s. It mapped all the system libraries, shared, to the same address of all processes because the 68000 was bad at position-independent code. It integrated a token-ring network, and demand-paged over the network, in the early '80s. You could fork onto any machine on the ring. It was very advanced for its time. Some of its best features are not seen on current systems.
Those powered lift aircraft don't have enough rotor inertia to perform autorotation. They will have to rely on redundant power systems plus ballistic recovery parachutes.

Autonomous flight is still quite rare. And even when it is used, there are still human pilots standing by to take over in case anything goes wrong.

Definitive answer: sum/union types [0] and currying/partial function application [1]. Between the two, almost anything you write becomes very easy to adapt to new requirements. Anyone who has done a medium to large scale fp project can attest to this.

If you want to be pedantic, currying and partial application are separate concepts, but I've never seen an fp lang implement one without the other. Note that I linked to this f# blog because I think its example-forward approach is clearer than most fp documentation I've read.

Two days back I wrote this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22034293

I doubt if this is just with Mozilla. Things like these are come as job perks when you enter management. And this one of the reasons why you must aspire to be a manager and not a programmer on the longer run.

>>The execs flew first class, stayed in fancy hotels, and had very expensive dinners and retreats - sometimes in the high five-figures.

They will always come up with reasons why they need to do this. The most common one is they need to be fresh with brains in clouds so that they can to talk to clients etc well. And they are doing this for the employees good.

“Comrades!' he cried. 'You do not imagine, I hope, that we pigs are doing this in a spirit of selfishness and privilege? Many of us actually dislike milk and apples. I dislike them myself. Our sole object in taking these things is to preserve our health. Milk and apples (this has been proved by Science, comrades) contain substances absolutely necessary to the well-being of a pig. We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of this farm depend on us. Day and night we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink the milk and eat those apples.”

- George Orwell.

>>This is not even included in comp.

Things like this generally go in some top level budget and the are approvals are not even audited at item level spending. Like no asks if you had a $100 dinner. It just goes into a group by statement in some dashboard. This is also why so many managers spend lavishly. It's almost anonymous spending. And money once given is never asked back.

If you think this is saying something. Wait till you discover how comp works in those roles. Pretty much anything given is never audited and its given fairly unchecked. Big bonuses and stock grants are just every day activities.

As in Indian who worked in the US for a while, I've even seen Green cards handed to manager's pets like candies. Again no asks questions, no audits done. Its just how awesome managerial jobs are.

>>The rule in the military is that men eat first, officers last.

I doubt if military or any people structure works this way.

Don't fall for these pep talk like speeches.
Umbrellas are less like physical items and more like Higgs fields in Japan. They exist as a probabilistic continuum, and materialize when you need them.

Said another way: let go of the notion of “your” umbrella, and just accept that when you do occasionally purchase one, you’re inserting an umbrella into a broader system.

I’ve had people come running out of their houses to hand me umbrellas on a rainy day; they really are a social good.
I cannot find the studies now, but I have seen multiple times numbers to the effect that medical interventions/treatments are responsible for 10% of health outcomes. The remaining 90% is determined by diet, exercise, and genetics.

Genetics is out of everyone's control. But the fact that 1/6 of the American economy is focused on that 10% is mind blowing.

The best ways to improve your health are to eat less, eat better, and exercise more.

How to build a strong and reliable B2B sales pipeline with Sam Richer [audio]
I'm commenting on your use of the term "bigotry" for the act of thinking some act is immoral, like gay sex, pedophilia, necrophilia, etc. Maybe you could clarify when it's bigotry and when it isn't. (Let me guess: everything you agree with isn't bigoted, and everything you disagree with is bigoted.)

My understanding is the SCOTUS ruling was about whether it was lawful, not whether it was bigoted. Correct me if I'm mistaken.
Eh I'd say using malloc in place of new is more code smell than anything here. If you want a byte array make a byte array

std::make_unique<std:::array<char, SIZE>>()

If you don't know how big you want the byte array make a vector.

std::vector<char>(size)

It's baffling to me how many C++ developers don't use the standard collections. The only one that really sucks is unordered_map.
Yeah, but he also designed JavaScript, so...

L'Oberton Paris
That is to say, the title itself mentions to you what this cream should do. Be that as it may, essentially, this equation contains fixings intended to help smooth your wrinkles from the back to front. In particular, fans love the L'Oberton Paris Ingredients so much that they keep on obtaining this item over and over. What's more, that is most likely why it has such positive audits at the present time, as well. With regards to skincare, this is an incredible equation intended to assist you with looking more youthful at the part of the expense of infusions. When all is said in done, an enemy of maturing cream this strong would cost you upwards of $400 or more. Fortunately, you won't pay a small amount of that at the L'Oberton Paris Cost. Actually, the minimal effort is something that fans rave about again and again. When all is said in done, you can hope to put a minimal expenditure into your skin. All things considered, just the amazing skincare items really have any kind of effect. Be that as it may, we think the L'Oberton Paris Cost is truly sensible. Along these lines, look at it today.
If the FIR filters are time variant, what determines the values of the kernel at any given moment - is it the prior values of the signal being generated or something else?

For IIR filters, I imagine the network would have to be recurrent. If you train the weights with labeled data, does that amount to a different mechanism for designing a filter, sort of like exchanging bilinear transformation for a data-driven approach? The former seems like forward engineering from first principles, whereas the latter seems like reverse engineering from data that exhibits transformations that you want the filter to encode. Fascinating stuff.
This brings back strong memories from college. Everyone had black Northface zip-up jackets, so when you would go to a frat party, there would be a giant pile of jackets laid on the couches in the common room. At the end of the night, it was a crapshoot whether drunken party-goers actually found their jacket, or one of the dozens of identical ones.

The next afternoon, there would inevitably be a cascade of campus-wide emails asking for the return of jackets containing wallets/ids/keys.

The thrift shops did a strong business in supplying the most garish and distinctive "frackets" to combat this problem.
> A lot of stuff still doesn't support IPv6 yet (RDS for example)

Almost all software (OS's, browsers, databases, load balancers, etc.) supports IPv6.

Some third-party services don't. But that's usually irrelevant to my point. For example, RDS allocates public IPv4 address at no extra cost. In any case, my point is that cloud providers are unwisely shoehorning NAT into everything; citing AWS as a contributing factor just reinforces that.

There's no longer any need for local IPs, except so that we can still design 90s-style networks.g

There is a question that I think needs to be asked more often: Why do those who do have/chose to have children always expect everyone else to bear their externalized burdens? You just pointed out that an optimal solution will not work because of your situation and you just assume that the rest of us should have to accept that your choice to have children automatically grants you the right to impinge on the rest of us. That's quite entitled.

Look at the changes to the executive team at Mozilla in 2017 and 2018 if you want to see the root of the problem.

Look at the changes Chief People Office Michael D'Angelo introduced (after leaving Pinterest), especially the multi-tier bonus system that crystallized the executive hierarchy and made ironclad the gap between Mozilla leaders and the Mozilla proletariat. How much does he make?

Ask yourself- what value or improvement did Chris Lin, VP of Mozilla's horrid IT, hired from Facebook, bring to the company? And look at his overpaid group of Directors, who do not have a single win between them that improved Mozilla's bottom line. Why did they hire a leader from Facebook? Were they trying to sink the ship?

Ask yourself- with all of Mozilla's failed marketing initiatives, why has the CMO never been held to account?

There was great hope that Mitchell Baker would return and clean house where it was needed, starting with many of the execs. This layoff, with so far no indication of leaders being held to account, is a sign that things are not going to improve.

It's a shame, because the people of Mozilla are the finest people you could ever work with. They don't deserve this leadership. The rank and file at Mozilla are amazing, though some of the best were let go today.

Stop all the marketing and the nonsense advocacy, focus on developing a browser, get other companies to fund development. It's in the interest of quite a few vendors to have a good, neutral browser.

We will start to migrate Windows 10 customers to the new Microsoft Edge in the coming weeks, starting with a subset of Windows Insiders in the Release Preview ring.

I'm guessing 20H1 will be released sooner than several months.
Big companies usually are invested in making things maintainable while startups are usually focused on their first-to-market goal.

As a software developer, the differences in goals have a significant impact on how I design and implement code.

I prefer big companies because I am usually a stickler for good conventions and proper coding structure.

> Whether or not you're writing JavaScript or TypeScript, you're still thinking in types, function signatures and data structures. TypeScript allows you to encode that information so you don't need to hold it in your head

Static vs dynamic, a flamewar that's over sixty years old to which I am not going to contribute.

> But that aside, TypeScript's tooling alone makes it worth it.

JavaScript has pretty good tooling too.

> As for this flame war, i strongly suspect that most type system advocates have mostly likely used BOTH dynamic and static languages (C#, Java programmers have had to deal with JavaScript for decades), while I expect the majority of dynamic advocates (say Python, PHP, JavaScript) have primarily stuck with dynamic.

Should we ask LISP developers? How about its derivates like Clojure or Scheme? There are many of them here in HN (in fact, I've dabbled on Clojure a little bit myself), though that would probably lead to a different flamewar entirely (functional vs oo).

In any case, I don't follow what point you were trying to make writing this suspicion, it was clear that you were going to get counterexamples and you didn't provide sources that at least gave support to having such a suspicion. I would appreciate if you elaborated what was your implication.

By the by, I worked in java during 2013 and 2014, and I've been working with Go exclusively for nearly a year now. I still don't really care about what type system any given language I've worked on has, there's good and garbage code everywhere. Though, since all this can only be opinion until someone conclusively demonstrates a given type system's superiority, I still prefer writing python code.

> Those with the wider perspective have the better insight imo.

Maybe we should ask Guido van Rossum's perspective.
I think a lot of us came to that conclusion years ago, and that's why we want to like Firefox. Unfortunately I have not yet ascended to my rightful throne as emperor of earth, so I cannot simply snap my fingers and command the dismantling of Google.

If Mozilla were throwing resources at a legal battle against Google, I'd be skeptical but interested. But marketing? I've never seen a paid advertisement for Firefox. Where the hell is that money even going? They should have purged their entire marketing staff after that "Mr Robot" advertisement debacle, but instead there was little other than half-hearted apologies.

This seems like the sort of thing that should be widely studied, but I can't find the terms to get nice Google Scholar results. In my field we do this sort of assessment for the users of (fairly low-risk) medical devices. It requires a team and is quite work-intensive to assess, but the stakes for insurance providers are high enough that this must already be known....

I can understand value in multiple browsers for experimenting with new things (see Rust integration into Mozilla's engine), but what are the security benefits?

Like if you have 3 different crypto imlpementations, you have times more teams that have to get a thing right. It seems way easier to try and get it right just once.

Perhaps there's a holistic idea of "if one browser has an issue, at least it doesn't affect 100% of them" but given what CVEs look like in reality (often variations of the same attack across multiple programs) it seems like the cost/benefit would not be in our favor

> She could've talked about his resilience in fighting cancer for 18 years

"Gerv’s work life was interspersed with a series of surgeries and radiation as new tumors appeared. Gerv would methodically inform everyone he would be away for a few weeks, and we would know he had some sort of major treatment coming up."

> or his fervor for free software. She could've talked about the actual work product he produced over 20-ish years at Mozilla and how it helped move the platform forward.

"Gerv was a wildly active and effective contributor almost from the moment he chose Mozilla as his university-era open source project. He started as a volunteer in January 2000, doing QA for early Gecko builds in return for plushies, including an early program called the Gecko BugAThon. (With gratitude to the Internet Archive for its work archiving digital history and making it publicly available.)

Gerv had many roles over the years, from volunteer to mostly-volunteer to part-time, to full-time, and back again. When he went back to student life to attend Bible College, he worked a few hours a week, and many more during breaks. In 2009 or so, he became a full time employee and remained one until early 2018 when it became clear his cancer was entering a new and final stage.

Gerv’s work varied over the years. After his start in QA, Gerv did trademark work, a ton of FLOSS licensing work, supported Thunderbird, supported Bugzilla, Certificate Authority work, policy work and set up the MOSS grant program, to name a few areas. Gerv had a remarkable ability to get things done. In the early years, Gerv was also an active ambassador for Mozilla, and many Mozillians found their way into the project during this period because of Gerv... As Gerv put it, he’s gone home now, leaving untold memories around the FLOSS world."

I guess that would depend on whether they skipped over the same parts you did.
I find it very interesting how stubbornly Toyota is sticking to hydrogen/fuel cells. The rest of the market seems to have accepted that the big downsides of hydrogen based solutions (need for extensive transport + storage infrastructure, difficult containment, horrible end to end efficiency, ...) make batteries the better solution.

Tesla seems bound to demonstrate that even semis are already viable with current technology, and battery research is bound to reduce price, weight and longevity further. We may find chemistries that rely less on materials like cobalt, nickel, copper.

Is it pride and inability to accept failure, or are there valid reasons for this and Toyota could still emerge as a big winner?

It seems unlikely to me for personal cars.

Hydrogen seems better suited for energy storage, trains and airplanes.
Fear of damage is fair. I'm flying United to San Diego for a little Motorcycle vacation and they will either let me check a bag or not at all - I can't buy a carry-on slot.

So I'm going to try traveling with nothing but my helmet, Kindle, toothbrush, and medicine :) it'll be an adventure, but fuck United.
I think when you’re getting on the plane, you’re forced to adhere to airline rules, si boarding groups can give them real control over the situation. When you leave, what is the airline going to do if you don’t listen? Kick you off the plane you just left?
