60k for an app that runs results collections for the Iowa Democratic Caucus sounds absurdly low. By comparison, just to get an app like that assessed for security issues --- and my assumption is that this is not an especially complicated app --- you'd already in the neighborhood of 20k.
Sorry about that! You shouldn't need to be logged in to Github to view a tutorial on a public repo. Can you try again now? We've fixed this and just pushed a fix!

It supports first-class functions, and it supports classes/objects. Sure, it doesn't include good tooling for either, but:

1. map/filter are 2 lines of code each.
2. Inheritance is part of mainstream OOP, but there are some less common languages that don't support inheritance in the way you're probably thinking (i.e. older versions of JavaScript before they caved and introduced two forms of inheritance).
3. Generics are more of a strong type thing than an OOP thing.
Not too well on mathematical proofs, but to me this sounds like the "proved" something by not being able to disprove Batchelor's law?

Also, the part about randomness makes sense in theory but the jump to an actual proof seems a little wide to me.

Are many mathematical laws proved in this way?
The mozilla suite in 1998 included a browser, an email/newsgroup client, an IRC client, an address book and an html editor.

Modern browsers for all their bloat actually have less features.
A high number of short lived allocations is also a bad thing in a compacting GC environment, because every allocation gets you a reference to a memory region touched very long time ago and it is likely a cache miss. You would like to do an object pool to avoid this but then you run into a pitfall with long living objects, so there is really no good way out.
They would be amazed, as this sounds like incredibly advanced technology, and maybe disappointed when they find it was all about imaginary objects in an interactive projector.

An app like this should not be on any app store ever. You want only pre-chosen people to have access to the app. It does no good for anyone else to have access to this and it can hurt.

4 years ago I had the Republican app on my phone. I was the backup reporter just in case the main reporter had problems. Since the main reporter used the app correctly I didn't use it, but I had access to it.
I think you are 100% right, it is a very tight deadline with very few manhours. I did not advance far enough in the proposal process to learn their budget but that sounds plausible to me.
I wonder whether it bothers women who want breadwinner partners that boys who want such an arrangement are less likely to go to college (and thereby are less likely to be able to afford it) than boys who want an egalitarian marriage.

All available evidence indicates that the disappearing male-breadwinner is a math/economy problem. There's almost no evidence that it's driven by culture. If anything, culture is following economic realities. As it generally does.

More bad news for male breadwinner wanters: "While college seems to have little impact on whether a student is liberal or conservative, a number of studies find that it does make them more supportive of civil liberties and gender egalitarianism, though not less religious."

By-and-large, men who can afford housewives don't want them. And as more women earn degrees and higher wages, high-earning men don't have to settle for them.
I had periods of doing something similar too. Make a pot of stew / curry / jambalaya with rice, eat with some salad.

Advantage of stew / curry is they can be frozen and later thawed and reheated. Over time though it got really monotonous for me. I like good food, and importantly variety.

Feels like there is some opportunity here. A way to scale home cooking for a bunch of individuals. Like if a few people in close proximity, say in the same apartment complex, rotated responsibilities for cooking. You can get bulk savings, time savings and variety.

You think a human won't be able to notice that the diff from the last version they tested looks awfully funny? Code that can fool the compiler into producing an evil binary is one thing, but code that can pass a human code review is quite another.

You might be surprised how often that occurs.

I don't do a diff before each third-party DVCS repo pull, but I do diff the code when integrating such third-party code into my projects, if only so I understand what they've done since the last time I updated. Commit messages, ChangeLogs, and release announcements only get you so far.

Back when I was producing binary packages for a popular software distribution, I'd often be forced to diff the code when producing new binaries, since several of the popular binary package distribution systems are based on patches atop pristine upstream source packages. (RPM, DEB, Cygwin packages...)

Each time a binary package creator updates, there's a good chance they've had to diff the versions to work out how to apply their old distro-specific patches atop the new codebase.

Someone's going to notice the first time this happens, and my guess is that it'll happen rather quickly.
"We have no way of finding the best possible shape yet"

In general, you're right but for certain class of problems we absolutely have solutions. Just look up inverse methods whereby the input is a pressure distribution and the output is a shape. This is used often for designing airfoils, ducts, and other simple geometries.

Thanks for that, some of the writing around the time is well worth a read too:

"In Congress, a senior legislative aide said, “Some members are beginning to ask and to wonder, but cautiously.” For now, he told me, “the members don’t have the confidence to say that the Administration is off base.” He also commented, “For many, it makes little difference. We vanquished a bad guy and liberated the Iraqi people. Some are astute enough to recognize that the alleged imminent W.M.D. threat to the U.S. was a pretext. I sometimes have to pinch myself when friends or family ask with incredulity about the lack of W.M.D., and remind myself that the average person has the idea that there are mountains of the stuff over there, ready to be tripped over. The more time elapses, the more people are going to wonder about this, but I don’t think it will sway U.S. public opinion much. Everyone loves to be on the winning side.”

If we draw from the Society analogy, people realized that their neighbors weren't happy with the government all along and production quotas weren't actually being met.

So presumably, the author thinks people will look around and realize that. . . they were all more racist and sexist then they were letting on? Yeah the analogy doesn't actually hold when stretched that far. One of the key steps in purity politics is to engage in self-flagellation about your own inadequacies as a member of a privileged group (if you are) or to ham up the victimization and harm inflicted on you (if you aren't). I suppose there would be some "realization" that the "harm" being claimed is being blown out of proportion, but again I think this is something most people understand already.

Eleos Technologies | Remote (US only) | Full time | Android Engineer

Eleos Technologies is a growing 8-year-old company building communication software for truck drivers and field workers.

We’re helping a diverse mix of customers—from mom and pop operations to household names—improve how they communicate with their employees by tackling information overload, reducing phone calls, and eliminating obsolete technologies.

Our app is used by thousands of big-rig and small truck drivers, day and night, every day, and we've been on a sustainable growth curve for long enough that we're ready to grow our Android team from one to two!

The app does some unique things, including assisting drivers to plan their trips, find stopovers, manage their electronic duty log, and more—there's a lot more than just CRUD and chat features to go around.

As a remote team, we're super lucky to have some great folks who use the ability to work from home to spend more time with their kids, help volunteer at a school, or otherwise be more fulfilled than they would be working from an office. You could join us!

If that sounds fun and rewarding to you, the full description and info about applying are over here: https://jobs.lever.co/eleostech/94ff56e4-9ca3-4fdd-b769-9238...

> The issue is that once you recognize that lift is the reaction to accelerating the airflow downwards

You need bernoulli to explain why the flow field is changed beyond just the area in contact with the flow. This induces the measured pressure differential, explaining part of lift along with the reaction effects of deflected flow for momentum conservation (NS, Newton's 2nd law). It's simply not _enough_ to say that it's purely angle-of-attack or geometry, and it's definitely not enough to say it's just pressure difference caused by Bernoulli, it's _both at once_.

>One significant issue is that if you do this without taking into account friction at the surface of the wing, and the boundary layer that results, you will find that there is no lift at all! Your solution will show the air that passes under the wing turning around the trailing edge, and flowing forward for some distance over the upper surface. In practice, the presence of a boundary layer causes the flow to separate at the trailing edge (if not before).

Not really true for 2d inviscid flows, a very useful approximation -- you need to enforce the K-J condition IIRC (which includes viscosity in a sense)

In short: fluid dynamics is complex, and you need more than just newton's laws to explain it thoroughly (newton's laws don't explain conservation of mass either...)
The Democratic Party must be destroyed to save it. This is a material manifestation of underlying shit, just a symptom at several degrees of remove from any more-than-superficial cause.

The only thing that could conceivably provide a systematic opening to fix things (ie, not just fixing specific things, after they've become apparent, because they've already catastrophically failed), in the realm of badly-written science fiction and fantasy, would be:

Bernie Sanders (or another equally popular candidate, in the near-future) is ratfucked so badly and obviously (which this could be the start of the perception of, even if it is just sufficiently advanced incompetence to be indistiguishable from malice), then the nominee loses to Trump so convincingly, that it completely shatters the party -- like it is no longer able to function at a basic level, and will clearly, even to the most delusional, never be able to win another election again -- and then... something, I don't even know how this would work. I am not creative enough to write this laughable science fiction any further.

There might also be a route involving Bernie Sanders winning both the primary and the general by a landslide, but that comes with its own and different set of systematic problems that I don't think would make the party's competence at dealing with technical problems, at least, any better.

But in either case, the deepest underlying rot is still the toxic interests of its financial backers, which are reproduced in the very bones of the party, and occasionally pop up in especially ridiculous and very indirect ways like this (and many more that don't get frontpaged as a problem on HN, or the New York Times for that matter). There's no fixing anything without somehow getting rid of them. And there is no realistically traversable path to that.

Most of those electrons have been spilled by people who do not understand what AMP does, which included you until you had read the GP post. Those arguments are nonsensical to somebody who does understand what AMP does.

I do not think RSS is harmful, but your stated reasons for claiming that AMP is harmful apply equally well to RSS. Your argument is therefore inconsistent with itself.

Adam Curtis' "Hypernomalisation" talks about this exact topic - the system collapses because everyone, from top to bottom, is engaged in a lie, either knowingly or unknowingly. All it takes is someone who is willing to take a stand and say "wait, none of this makes any sense". That's basically how communism in the Eastern Europe collapsed, and that's how these communities can - once enough people realize that this entire self-policing of morality doesn't make any sense because in fact everyone is excluded by the insane rules the community collapses.

I’d actually turn both this and the original article around, and say that corporations behave like AIs. They are artificial. They are (variably) intelligent.

The functions of processing inputs to create meaningful outputs are carried out by neurons made of meat (human employees) and of silicon. These processes are governed by rules and metaprocesses, which the entity continuously optimises and improves, in order to further its own growth and to improve its fitness for its purpose - typically, enhancing shareholder value. I cannot think of a single criteria for intelligence or even life that a corporation does not possess, from independent action to stimulus response to reproduction to consumption to predation.

I think the first true hard AI will emerge accidentally, and it will be a corporation that has largely optimised humans out of the loop - but even with humans as a component of a system, a gestalt, an artificial supra-intelligence, can still emerge.

This also neatly sidesteps the whole question of “should AIs have rights?”, as corporations are already legally persons.

Good job on getting your first project out there, there is a lot to be improved upon here.

First off, it's standard practice to listen for PORT over the environment variable. You can always set a default, I often do, but it should able to be overriden.

Second, you are opening and closing your DB on every request, it may not cause too much latency, but you should 'open' the database upon application start, then use a service to allow your controllers access to the DB. If the project was larger, I would recommend some abstraction so you can use different types of storage solutions and the controller doesn't need to have any idea what is used behind the scenes.

errChk will cause the entire application to crash on any 'err' thrown in it that isn't nil. Errors should be handled a bit more gracefully, a common pattern is:

if err := datastore.Get(c, key, record); err != nil {
http.Error(w, err.Error(), 500)
return
}

You are definitely on the right path though! If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment. I can create a PR later with the suggested updates if that would be of any interest to you.

Oh, also Heroku or Google Cloud Run may be of interest to you, both services have free tiers that you can get started on, but you will want to change your datasource to use something beyond sqlite.

Can you provide a citation for this claim?

I see a report from the Quarterly Journal of Economics that says: "The bottom half makes more in France than in the United States today, even though average income per adult is 35% lower in France (partly due to differences in standard working hours in the two countries)." [1]

If you look at people "with disposable income between 66 percent and 200 percent of the country’s median income", France has a larger percentage of citizens in that middle class. [2]

France spends less than half of the US per capita on healthcare and has a longer life expectancy. [3]

It's remarkable that the United States can have the highest number of immigrants for any country by a wide margin and still be in this position.

https://www.pewresearch.org/global/interactives/internationa...

Over 44 million residents of the US were not born in the US, as opposed to 8 million in Canada. As a percentage of the population, that's lower than Canada, but by weight of sheer numbers, the US shouldn't have any problem with this.

The US takes over 1.2 million immigrants into the country every year, we just don't have much of a skilled immigration system - ours is largely based on family reunification. Canada and Australia, on the other hand, have a points based system that favors immigrants with education and skills.

I actually do blame the high tech industry for some of this. I just don't think it's a "bug" that the US system was largely based on a very indentured approach, where high tech companies got to decide who is allowed into the US and the circumstances under which they are allowed to remain, with long, grueling waits for a green card, where a would-be immigrant was beholden to an employer (called a "sponsor") and could be fired and deported at the employer's pleasure.

Facebook, Google, Apple, all the big companies - you see, what they wanted was a freer, more open system where skilled immigrants got to choose what they'd study, where they'd work, what companies they'd work for, and even whether they'd work in tech in the first place, in accordance with their own personal values and interests and market signals such as salary, cost of living, and work conditions.

That's what google and Facebook wanted. Unfortunately, all they could get was an visa that they bestow and control, putting them in a position to determine micro aspects of a would-be immigrants life.

Right. This utterly corporate self serving H1B guest worker visa system that undermines markets and is an affront to freedom did terrible damage to the public perception of skilled immigration.

Want to be clear, I don't blame anyone for working on an H1B, this wasn't your choice, and it was your only option. Don't blame you for going to Canada, either. But I just don't buy it from the corporate lobbyists. This was hardly a bug, to the companies that make heavy use of the H1B, the control over the worker's right to live int the US is a feature, and they lobbied hard for it.
I certainly see the parallels: both Mao and groups in modern Western culture are trying to control thought at the expense of free speech. But let's not overstate this: nobody is going door to door and carting people off in hoods for their ideas.
A lot of this stuff can get pretty nuanced especially seasoning, and to me that makes or breaks any dish even if you're just using salt and pepper. I usually just go with what's recommended for a particular recipe... After trying a recipe a few times, I MIGHT tweak the seasoning based my or the wife's preferences. When I'm not sure what seasonings to use outside of salt/pepper, I usually just use seasoned salt.
