>It's arguably good for public health to keep people going to their jobs, keeping shops and grocery stores open, keeping gas stations open, etc. But that grocery store cashier is exposing himself to hundreds of people every day, so he may be putting himself at risk even as he helps reduce the impact to others by helping them to buy food.

Given the demographic situation in the western world and China, nobody with medical skills will have to worry much about finding employment - I agree.

I wanted attack the "intuitive" point a lot of people make about AI: "The simpler your job, the more easily it will be replaced by a computer". I think this position only focuses on what is technologically feasible, not about the realities of the labor market. There are many people who work for so little, it won't be feasible to try to undercut them on price for a long time. So radiologists are so extremely expensive by comparison that they're a better target for automation solutions.

As for handling the TLS part, both Apache and NGINX have the capability to do verification of certificates. The application only needs to parse the headers they pass on to determine the user connecting to the application.

If you don't care about the user (TLS client certs + standard username/password) you can get away with proxying the application through nginx and calling it a day.

Basically you turn on client verification and you're done. If you want to show an error to unauthenticated users, you can make verification optional and add something along the lines of:
if ($ssl_client_verify != SUCCESS) {
return 403;
}
I think that’s missing the point he was making. No matter what front-end representation of a system you get, the implementation backing a no-code system will have edge cases around interactions both internally and with third-party systems. The fact that you’re hiding a system behind a veneer of “no code” doesn’t hide the fact that code is behind the actions that are taking place, it just means you can’t introspect it (even if this “no code” is in fact code).

I think a better point would be to make that that’s not a bad thing, sometimes abstractions provided in “no code” systems can greatly simplify a solution. But even the most well-designed solution will fail to some essential complexity of the root-problem the original authors didn’t understand. Without debugging tools (or privileged access to the backend of the implementing system) it’s difficult or impossible to understand what went wrong.

Actually a collision is an overlap with only one initial event. So collision = overlapping + state. That is an object collides initially but will perhaps continue to overlap the other object.

In 2D games programming, at least in the old days, the detection effectively consisted of detecting whether NOT two objects were overlapping.

Consider this pseudocode formula:

function isOverlapping(a, b){
return a.x < b.x + b.w // a's left is to the left of b's right
&& // And
a.x + a.w > b.x // a's right is to the right of b's left

... And the same for vertical.

Compare with this :

function isOverlapping(a, b){
if(a.x > b.x + b.w) return false; // was to the right
if(a.x + a.w < b.x) return false; // was to the left
if(a.y > b.y + b.w) return false; // was below
if(a.y + a.h < b.y) return false; // was above

return true; // not not overlapping, so must be overlapping
}

Additionally, these constant additions were unnecessary for each permutation of the detection matrix, so you would store left and right sides whenever you moved an object:

function move(a, x, y){
a.left = x;
a.top = y;
a.right = a.x + a.w;
a.bottom = a.y + a.h;
}

Then the isOverlapping guard statements would be changed to:

if(a.left < b.right) return false;

Etc. Which is a cpu-over-memory optimization. But also makes the code easier to read ...

That's why I prefer contributing to smaller wikis. They have much less political issues. However, I'd say more than 90% of the edits I've made to the English Wikipedia are still live.

It really depends where you choose to edit. Some articles just have asshole editors who think they own the article. And not everyone has the energy to fight back against that.

Ask HN: I found a bug in Google payments,then asked for an interview,am I crazy?
Hi,
Basically any good coder could make a script to exploit that bug automatically, google would then send you money for no good reason, someone knowing this could potentially get a pretty large amount of money before Google even notice, it might even be possible to do it completely legally.

I tried a few times to make sure it was real, I got like 20$ wired on my account, without earning it, without lying, just by creating an account, using my legit personal info, and clicking on a few buttons.

I sent messages to a few of their recruiters on Linkedin, telling them that I found this bug and if it was enough to get an interview at their company haha...

I'm waiting for an answer right now.

Was that a dumb move? What should I do now?I live in Europe by the way.

> They made their money through exploiting other people’s labour, that’s the only way you accumulate such capital.

Is that true? Maybe, but I guess it hinges on your definition of "exploit". I think you can make money (in theory, of any amount) without exploiting people.

> They then go on to donate a vanishingly small amount

Haven't they both pledged to donate 99% in their lifetimes? Plus you could argue the companies themselves (where at least Musk's wealth is mostly locked up) are helpful. At least Tesla.
Go to a smaller company. They are much slower on changing technology.
Using the company this author helped to migrate to hubspot as an example.

I'm not sure if the simpler solution - hubspot existed when the company started hacking solutions together.

Also, the move to hobspot was relatively easy because the business processes and workflows were already well known and defined.

Starting from scratch, fighting the fires as they appear, a bit of patchwork seems unavoidable.

Everything is obvious in hindsight.

I agree completely, the response internally, and co-ordination with international agencies have both been woeful. My point is that this is hardly surprising considering 80% of their budget for international operations was cut, along with their NSC representation and a handful of their most senior positions responsible for pandemic response. What effect would you expect that to have, when within a year or two of that happening suddenly there's an international health crisis and pandemic?

The CDC, WHO and health care experts all over the world have been saying it's only a matter of time before something like this happens again ever since swine flu, MERS and SARS, but they have been treated like scare mongers and jumped up welfare programs by politicians. Of course they're not up to the task. If they're going to be sidelined, derided and de-funded how on earth could they be?

People keep bringing up edge cases like this. If we look at strictly died/(recovered+died) the mortality is 6%. Obviously it's lower because there are recoveries which are not recorded.

Oh I understand the business reality very well and I don't blame anyone for making that call when it's the right move for them, but I'm still not going to use the software.

If you don't have the proto definition, there's nothing you can do except pass the object through unmodified. And you should not need a reflection API for that (unless the v1 API was totally messed up in other ways).

Without the definition (and knowing the type!) there won't be anything around to tell the reflection API what the names, types and annotations are. All you would have is field numbers mapped to opaque blobs of data.

I don’t know, most systems like the container ship he/she described just seem simple but are actually pretty intricate inside. The logic behind them might be easy to understand, but the devil is in the details. A combustion engine is also simple conceptually: make stuff explode in a closed chamber to move a rod, convert that the movement to a rotation of a shaft. Super simple, yet I doubt I could debug many problems my car engine has with such basic knowledge.

Uber does 40m rides a month with human drivers, I don't believe people are generally turned off by the smell of their drivers. The rating system is pretty brutal. I've certainly never had this problem.

Uber doesn't pay for the downtime, its the drivers that take all the losses.

I find the security question interesting: Would you rather have a human in the car to potentially protect you from outside attackers, or is the general fear that the driver him/herself with assault you? I think with cameras and identity checks the risk from the driver can be reduced.

Regarding your last point:

Yes, do the same for less or something better for the same, both are possible paths to winning in the marketplace.

In addition to this piece, there is this interview with Harvard Epidemiologist Marc Lipsitch [1]:

> Whatever the number is, it's gonna take a toll. If it really does spread as widely as that projection says, and that's what I think is likely to happen, then there are gonna be millions of people dying. And I don't think there's any way to get around that. And so I think there's real reason for people to be concerned. I also think that we can turn that concern into actions that will make the situation better.

I think pieces like this and the linked interview with Marc Lipsitch, which are clear-eyed reads on the situation from experts, should break through to the general public so they can take some action.

I think this is a bit different than what I wrote above. I just want to send the command key as itself.

It looks like you're changing your .vimrc itself.

How would I get iTerm to just send cmd+p as cmd+p? I tried making a keymapping in that menu with "Key Combination": "cmd+p", "Action": "Do Not Remap Modifiers". Rather than sending it to VIM, it still brings up a print screen dialogue.

Similarly, I can't get cmd+[, cmd+], cmd+h (or j, k, l, etc) to send through to VIM.

With both VS Code and MacVim, that stuff is easily configurable. My failure (thus far) to figure out how to do the same with iTerm is why I don't really use it.
I believe this kind of over simplification or representation exists for many aspects of life, this is how our brain copes with complex matters (I believe).
