>You can't define some arbitrarily complex behavior that makes you into a trespasser. Maybe I'm wrong on that?

I've seen plenty of trespassing signs with statements mentioning specific times of day, like "after sunset" or "after midnight until 8am". I assume these are legally binding but I don't know for sure.
They also have Istio with Kubernetes, so you could use this until you're able to migrate to something more adaptable to other environments.
I'm sorry you've misunderstood what this is. This is a Go Framework for microservices development. It's what you use to write services. It's like Rails or Spring. Kubernetes is for running applications not writing them. Kubernetes no opinions about how you write software. We encapsulate the underlying infrastructure and provide a framework for the developer to literally write business logic.
Zoom is run by a Chinese national who failed his US visa application 10 times. Of course China gets a copy of your video chat - they are looking for our national security secrets.
As an Apple user, it's always a bit bittersweet seeing announcements like this. It often means we'll see some nice upgrades to Apple services, but I feel bad for the non-Apple consumers of this info. It's not just Android, but 3rd party iOS apps benefit from the Dark Sky API as well (I use Carrot Weather which uses it for some of their feeds).
Aside from that, it's good to see a great team get some well deserved rewards for their notoriously great product. I just wish there were a better way for great devs to get rewarded.
I don't know of any, but our teams uses Slack, not Teams. Barely any complaints about Slack video chat btw, but that's all small sessions anyways.
That printing money necessarily leads to inflation is not true in a situation like this. Inflation happens when there's more and more money being used to chase a finite amount of goods. In our current economic situation, there's a huge pile of money that's not chasing any goods at all.

Like like after the 2008 crisis that didn't lead to inflation, this won't either, as long at they turn off the money printer when people start investing again.

I believe this could be the main reason for the purchase. Apple is still using The Weather Channel as the data source for their stock app. If you take a look at their website you’ll soon realize they’ve jumped the ship and are highlighting articles such as “Koalas rescued from Australia’s Bushfires Return Home”.

It appears that The Weather Channel cares very little about showing the actual weather, and switching to a higher quality data source that’s now in-house is probably a really good idea.
I used Eclipse for Java for several years, but not anymore... If they launched a lighter version, why not? Let's give it a try =P (just change the subject of the thread for a more decent and less appealing pls =P)
I've used it across three different mobile phones and countless desktop devices over the years without any issues. Did you accidentally set the messages to expire after a short time? Are you using more than one mobile phone? I also recommend submitting an actual github issue to either their Desktop or Android/iOS repo with those detailed instructions.
Dark Sky is a very nice implementation, but what makes them unique, actually? They gather data from public sources, there's no user input to worry about having to censor, there's no networking effect in order to make it useful.

It's basically a perfect candidate for a lifestyle project. How big is the team? I'd gather the whole thing could be re-implemented (at least for a single market like US and Canada) in a few months by a single competent backend developer who knows a thing or two about UI/UX as well.

Anyone has any idea as to the purchase price?
> It's worth pointing out that this is not "weird", but rather the natural state of things!

Except in health care, education, and real-estate - all three of which are needs more fundamental than personal computing or electronics.
Aha that's a good way of putting it - thanks! I guess my experience with Go and C has made me only expect REPLs with dynamic languages that use VMs. Some of the other comments also noted that Haskell and Erlang are compiled but also provide REPLs.
Just a dirty move to shove aside all of us paying Android users. Was going to look at going back to Apple for my next phone but this just brought my opinion of Apple business practices back down to the garbage heap.

I am disappointed in the founders for letting that be a part of the acquisition.
Ask HN: Would you use StackExchange chat if
...if it was more prominent in the UI? I always forget that it is there.

I use a few programming Slack groups, but wish this global community was more active in the chat.

Right now there are 0 people in the data science chat.

I feel like this place could help offload beginner questions to keep question quality high. Maybe you would have to graduate from the chat to be able to post?

Does System Prefs > Displays > Scaled not work?
I can tell you how I spot:
1. Doing it in Python. "Can I do this with Python instead of X? because Python is really fast to write and I don't need to worry about small helper functions"

2. Know various approaches more than ordinary people. "Ah we can solve this in various approaches. We can sort this one, and the problem will be log N, or we can use Heap and make it log K. We can use stack but does it get counted as space in the space complexity? Oh I can use deque here but let me just use Python list because Python list is very versatile, it can be anything, it can be array, can be queue, can be stack"

3. Know the solution right away even the non obvious ones. One example is the problem of next permutation. Given a number 1, 3, 2, 4, 5. Find the next permutation in O(n) time and O(1) space. This solution is easy but if you have never done it before there is no way you can come up with a solution complete with code. Another problem, given preorder and inorder list, construct the binary tree. There are many non obvious problems like this.
I'm curious. So what is Kaggle?
I stand by my analysis, which is derived from a re-reading of your pointless 2018 post and the ensuing HN thread, and welcome any substantive rebuttal you'd like to generate.

By the way: you get a million extra points for ghost editing your Matrix recommendation out of your post after being called out on the fact that it didn't even do E2E by default. It's still right there on Archive.org. If you flip through the Archive snapshots, you even had a changelog on this post at one point!
You didn't actually respond to my points, but just pointed out the existence of other types of business where the centralizing flow is less obvious than real estate.
You're correct, but to add further qualification to your correct assertion- it doesn't matter if they're connected or not. All a pathogen has to do is enter the body by any means, not have direct access to the respiratory system on entry.
I was only asked easy/medium algorithm questions at FAANG, the only times I was ever asked hard algorithm questions were at startups.
The solution: dump (popular) algorithms!

All whiteboard problems should be fairly novel and 'not possible to practice' or else you are testing their preparation, not their ability.

(Admittedly, preparation is a measure of something, and 'conquering all algorithms' is a measure of something.)

But neither are the measure you're looking for.

And 'General IQ' is not only it either.

The ability to decipher problems, understand requirements, grasp tradeoffs, translate that into reasonably clean code, keep possibly complex systems in your head, work with others and maintain a positive disposition.

Finally, the elephant in the room is 'perceived confidence'. It took me 30 years at least to be able to understand how well a problem was communicated, and how good the solution actually is.

Someone who is confident, who 'looks the part', who can communicate the issue clearly ... may still have a mediocre problem.

The weird, lacking in self-awareness, a shy-but-blunt nerd who may be totally unsure of themselves, sweaty palms ... may possibly have just as great as a solution.

We are hard-wired to see 'patterns' and our intuition misguides is significantly on this issue.

It's a lot of hard work to try to ignore 'the bad parts' of one's own intuition while keeping the 'good parts'.

One of the solutions to this literally is data. Instead of 'feeling' how they did, a checklist of things might help us structure in our minds how truly well something was accomplished.

And of course, we can't ignore the fact that communicating matters, it just matters differently in different contexts.
It's news if you have a track record of privacy violations as it has been with Zoom in the past few days.
At work I've had a number of projects delayed mostly because of ambiguous business requirements constantly redefined or accidentally discovered and feature creep pushing back and slowing testing time.
Does it do notifications of approaching rain?
Yes. However, in the context of sharing something in this sort of community, one would assume breadth of application is a reasonable scope for discussion.
Hmm. I use simplesamlphp. What would be the easiest thing to change to?
One suggestion...

My company has been using Gotomeeting for 5+ years. No video (thankfully), but meetings are generally 20-30 people and largely seamless.

It is expensive: $300 per seat to host a meeting, but it pretty much just works. The UI is annoying and could be simpler.

However, I don't know if it is as shady as Zoom because I don't think anyone has done a deep dive.
A webmaster can deny any kind of access they don't want by just not serving to them, just like a landowner can put up a fence. People on the outside can still look over the fence from a public space perfectly legally, like a webmaster serving their homepage to everyone, and the landowner can't demand of people outside the fence, for example, "You can look over the fence, but only if you don't make a mean face at me". If you don't want people to look at all, well, don't make it public and put up a wall instead, and require authorization to enter.

If the landowner voluntarily allows someone inside, they can have pretty arbitrary rules about what people are allowed to do inside (in addition to the actual law), but the only real recourse they have to enforce their arbitrary rules once broken is to evict an offender to the outside. They don't get to pretend that their arbitrary rules are suddenly laws punishable as if they were a crime.
Yes, Foreca, ClimaCell are good, AccuWeather, Aeris Weather and MeteoGroup are also available.
Hey all - we've been working on a brand new approach to mobile analytics and session capture for the last 4 1/2 years. Our team is ultra-focused on building something that we can be comfortable with using in apps on our own devices and we're very happy with the balance we have struck.

This blog post scratches the surface on the approach we're taking and how we've balanced privacy and fidelity.

The product page has some additional info as well:

https://www.fullstory.com/mobile-apps/

Happy to answer any questions about how we are doing this, how we're putting privacy first, or technical questions. Some other folks from the team will be around as well.
I couldn't find the verbiage for that. The standard seems to have this under undefined behavior:

> The value of an object with automatic storage duration is used while it is indeterminate.

But reading the value without using it seems fine?
Interesting. I from what I have seen of Mazda's price range, even within a model, it's pretty large. You can get a CX-5 base for mid 20s, or the turbocharged, leather-wrapped nav-included tour package for almost 40.

The CX-5 is at the higher end of their starting prices, too. They have the Mazda3, CX-3, CX-30 and Mazda6 that are all cheaper base.

And to be sure, Mazda's crossovers look much better than Honda or Toyota - at least Toyota finally refreshed their interiors two years ago to look like something other than 2003 era.
> Crime is spiking in NYC right now and it's not really a priority to report it.

How can you know this? If it is not being reported, you must be relying on anecdotal reporting? Reddit, nextdoor, facebook?
Virginia's data has been fixed now.

I was also able to hack together a mobile version of the site this weekend, so you might check that out too, although the desktop version makes it easier to compare states.
I mean this is basically it. Its effectively a hostile takeover of one segment of the app market.
My ethics don't allow me to work at seemingly-doomed companies for very long after the realization that they are doomed.
Diversity hire, not diversity.
What Do We Value?
I don't think anybody even bothered to read the article!

It explicitly states, right below the top image -

>> The new Jazz has a touchscreen for many functions, but not temperature control

So, only the temperature control is via a dial. Everything else is still on the touchscreen.

At every company I have worked at, policies were in place to extend greater opportunity to URM and women candidates. Most large companies are setting diversity targets well in excess of the share of women and URM workers in software development other engineering roles at the company. This necessitates discrimination to achieve this over representation. For example, Dropbox announced a goal of 33% women in engineering roles when I was there in 2019. My currently employer has a goal of 30% women in engineering.

This typically doesn't result in easier interviews. Rather it was implemented by giving recruiters incentives (larger bonuses, or penalties for failure to meet a certain %) to hire diverse candidates. At my current company, over 50% of engineering candidates phone screened last year were women (and were given phone screens at a rate twice as high as men). In other words, framing diversity hiring as "giving a free pass" isn't quite accurate. Rather the companies increase their diversity by adjusting the rate at which diverse and non-diverse candidates are let into the interview process.
Is there a site listing donation sites? I have a box of N95 masks from biking during wildfire season last year, and would like to get them to where they can be of use.
Good point! You would catch everyone, so the statistics would look better. Thanks!
Maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like they're misusing the term in the same way that Apple does with iMessage.
That would depend on the jurisdiction. Typically in the US, most states define two separate criminal statutes for each situation:

1) Criminal Tresspassing - typically defined as the entering the property of another without express permission from the owner (this tends to include intruding via drone these days)

2) Remaining or Reentry after forbidden - which is for those cases where entry was permitted, but the owner subsequently revoked that permission.
It's also news if your company is gaining traction and increased usage, especially with things like this: https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/status/1244985949534199808

Yeah... but what the original post is about isn't the old Eclipse IDE we've all known and loved (to hate, maybe). But a new entry in the Electron based text editor craze... to me just glancing over the website, it looks like a VS Code clone.

That the Eclipse IDE itself is more an analogue to Visual Studio proper could be where some on the Eclipse marketing team are mixing up the two and mentioning "VS Code fees".
It's always wrong if you take luck out of the equation. With DCA, the problem is all the cash you have sitting around NOT invested while in the process of executing the strategy is really just money that you are betting against the market with.

For example, maybe there will be a downturn for the next 2 months but what about the 7 months following that? They could all be green for all we know, and all that money would be sitting around being lost to inflation. Also consider this: on average, missing just the best 10 trading days of each year would cut your returns in half, historically. We have already had several huge single-day rallies even in this downturn, and people who divested for that period may have made their losses even worse by doing that.
>Pre-installed and probably impossible to remove.

Thanks for nothing creators of Dark Sky.
> and quite frankly it's unlikely that the daily tasks involved in the next job will bear a strong resemblance to the kind of synthetic tasks or problems you are asked about in an interview setting.

The blog post mentions in passing that their interview.io site gives users a choice between practicing traditional "synthetic"/algorithmic questions and a different approach focused on "systems design". I'm not entirely sure what the latter involves, but it seems like it could strike quite a bit closer to the generalist knowledge that would be required in "day to day work", while preserving a desirable problem-solving component.

One might even imagine using both approaches in combination, e.g. using algorithmic puzzles as a sort of tie-breaker to choose among candidates who seem about equally strong in the 'systems design' domain.
sure, but it's a common thread. notice how you see similar comments on articles about electric cars. HN hates to see money spent on improving forms of transportation that are not bikes or public transit.
The Apple employee who opens your email will undoubtedly pat themselves on the back for a job well done.

We had to write something running on Google AppEngine and backed by Google Datastore to do exactly that. We canned Global Service Registry or GSR. Could have used this if it was available 3 years ago!
Logistically it's almost impossible. you know how many side roads there are between NY, NJ, PA, CT, VT, Mass, etc? Tons! What we need is a national quarantine. The President needs to go on the air, tell people he was wrong, the situation is more serious than he thought, and we need to stay home for at least the next 4 weeks, until further notice. That will never happen though.
Being long-only is great when everything is going up.

As for me, I like to hedge out the market and sector movements by being long/short (adjusted for beta) within a given sector. I only make money if my long outperforms my short. Trump tweets and other companies' earnings in the sector do not affect my P/L.
This is how you realize the power of marketing. Despite many other options for video calls out there, Zoom seems to be grabbing the biggest slice of the pie, while not being provenly any better or superior to alternatives. See DHH's tweet: https://twitter.com/dhh/status/1243907341868609537?s=20 as well as others (he's been pretty vocal about zoom's flaws) :)
So what would be the difference if Apple just built all the features of Dark Sky into the default Weather app and crushed Dark Sky leaving them with no market?

And as far as they would still have Android, we all know that the Android market isn’t nearly as profitable for app developers as the iOS market. They wouldn’t have received any money. Why would you want the government to tell developers who you could sell your property to? How would that affect the entire startup ecosystem? Would investors only want to invest money on companies that could go public? Especially seeing that for example only two YC backed companies have ever gone public.

Also, if the government did stop Apple from acquiring Dark Sky, are they also going to stop Apple from hiring the developers, the developers let their app rot and Apple still has them to integrate the best features of Dark Sky into the Weather app?

I’m always amazed at how willing people on HN are to give up their freedom and independence to the government.
"Private messaging" ala Signal. Step 1. Give us all your contacts. Step 2. Send you an SMS to immediately alert anyone monitoring traditional communications systems that you are a person of interest. Step 3. Maintain traditional E.164 telephony network identifiers, increasingly unavailable without government issued ID and permanently linked to location records, as the primary account identifier for discovery. Step 4. Ensure software refuses to work without said identifier. Great job guys.

And yet, click on their website and you get these positive reviews from Snowden, Poitras, Schneier. What gives?

Edit: Why is this flagged?
- ORMs traditionally map classes to tables.

- Prisma maps queries to structural types.

This is a key distinction that the community will need to spend some time to really get an intuitive understanding for. I think you will realise that many of the problems we discovered when using classic ORMs (often described as impedance mismatch) does not apply to Prisma. But there are sure to be other problems that we will discover over time. I am looking forward to shake this out together with the broader community over the coming years.
Oooh this is good. A few years ago I came home drunk and wanted to watch this old film that wasn't on any channels. I found it on some dubious website, which required me to install a player .dmg. I drunkenly typed in my password, and then an hour later was like: dafuq did I just do?!? Next day I re-imaged my mac because I'm both paranoid and don't know enough about secops.

SuspiciousPackage wouldn't have helped combat Drunk Install Syndrome, but it might have been a helpful tool before I nuked my OS.

Or maybe this is just good marketing for SuspiciousPackage, which is really malware. Well played.

iMessage is fully E2E - Apple does not have any ability to decrypt messages, only the recipient can.

There's a full white paper explaining how iMessage works, and how it achieves full E2E. Same for FaceTime. And iMessage group messages.

Zoom doesn’t just work. If the students want privacy, they are just helpless.

Edit: downvoted for speaking up for student rights. Sorry if it is inconvenient for the teachers
The really crummy part about the abandonment of the Android user base is that Darksky-now-Apple's user base will lose the end-user weather reporting from the Android user segment. Dark Sky would sometimes report rain instead of snow, snow instead of rain, showers instead of downpours, etc. I could provide feedback that the report was wrong, and how it was wrong.
I'm sure this move will break a lot of smart homes. The Dark Sky API was pretty popular among HomeAssistant users (myself included). So I'll have to figure out how to work with the data from DWD (German weather service). I'm pretty sure they won't get aquired by <insert any big company here>.
There is perspective, so it's 3D. Unless you are talking about the fact that your display can show only 2D images then you are technically correct since most displays are not 3D displays.
