> Did you even read the piece by McCarty?

Sure, the paper was more a side-effect of their work on LISP 1 and the mathematical ideas were developed at the end of the first phase of the development & implementation of LISP.

> He talks about how it was meant as an alternative to the computational models based on turing machines in addition to a symbolic computation tool for AI and therefore used side effects for convenience but also tried to keep mathematical properties, like referential transparency.

The programming language LISP 1 had SET, SETQ, control flow via GOTO, setting of slots of cons cells, destructive operations for list processing, destructive property list operations, ...

LISP was an actual programming system for a real computer, their IBM 704. It was a LISP implementation written in assembler and LISP with stuff like an interpreter, a compiler, garbage collection, input/output, a kind of read-eval-print-loop, saving memory dumps and loading them, writing/loading assembler code from LISP, and all that stuff which is in a typical LISP implementation since then.

The chapter you linked to even has the title 'The implementation of LISP'.

Check out the LISP 1 manual I linked to sometime.

No, almost nothing of the $200 actually goes to the author. A typical share goes like this: (concrete numbers for Germany) 50% of the sticker price goes to the book seller, 7% to tax, the remainder to printing, typesetting, logistics, the publishing house etc.

A typical author would get somewhere between 4-7% of the net sales. Most books, especially advanced science books, on the market (not your College 101, not NYT bestsellers) sell only in the order of hundreds, maybe a few thousand copies. The vast majority of books doesn't even earn the advance back. The reason why they are often not good, is that it takes months to write 500 pages of well-thought out, well-delivered material, and the incentive to do that for $5000 is relatively low.
I was in the 2017 program and I agree that it was an amazing experience! As a first time founder, I learnt a huge amount during the 3 months.
You might not need React for a simple app, but you will need data binding and doing it with jQuery is going to be hard.

If you want to avoid the complexity of React and making your own data bindings Svelte is the next big thing in the JS world. Maybe something will come along in 2025 and replace it though.
How many people disagreed with the campaign then?
It's kind of playable using XQuartz on mac. But i'm only using that for debugging the setup really. This is intended as a test bed for keras bot experiments, so controls are not important to me.

Main components are wine, ffmpeg, nginx+nginx-ts-module and xvfb. It runs diablo2 and livestreams the screen capture.

I'd love to push this to git or docker, but it's currently littered with blizzards game files. I'm most likely not allowed to share the current state.

I put some files together to get a rough look. I'll try to make it a bit more usefull when i'm done with actual work and not exhausted.

Ask HN: Are people still being charged for daycare?
My daycare in NYC is still charging us around $3,000 per month for services not rendered. During the first few weeks, we felt a sense of duty to continue paying so that the teachers didn’t get laid off. But after 2+ months, I have to look out for my own and refuse to pay.
UserOnboarding Success States Patterns

Hi folks,
When our classes went remote, I struggled to stay motivated; the tools we used didn’t not play nice with one another. It was lonely.
So I built Barbra to give students all the tools needed to study together in one place. I wanted to get the best parts of Anki, Notion, and Duolingo and just make them work for all learners.
The tool is free. And you can find it at https://barbra.io At Barbra, students have their notes and flashcards together. They can also set a daily studying goal, and hold each other accountable to it by competing for streaks.
The tool is pretty bare-bone and doesn’t work so well on mobile, but I would love to hear your feedback. What do you think?
Sheltered white liberal whose only window to the world is CNN or the occasional poverty tourism to Asia when he's not doing CSS programming thinks this is still 19th century and he gets to decide who rules a country. Newsflash- India is a democracy. While you guys were making up Russia collusion and giving pulitzers over it to subvert your own democracy (yes I'm an Indian in India from where it's easy to see US politics objectively), India handed over a landslide victory to a party that decided that muslim women couldn't be divorced over text. Not that I mind Hindu nationalist. Why this Hinduphobia? What has atheism achieved that Hinduism hasn't? Scat porn and netorare (I hear its popular in cali)?

Random comments in this frame of context:

- I've seen/heard some doctors saying publicly, on Japanese TV, mid-March, "I think there are 10 times more cases than reported"

- There's an average of 270 deaths per day from pneumonia on a normal year in Japan (100k).

- The largest number of deaths announced from COVID-19 in a single day was, I think, yesterday, and it was 20.

- Deaths from pneumonia that aren't tested could very well appear to be in the noise of normal pneumonia deaths, easily hiding the real death toll. It doesn't take malicious intent for this to happen, just people following the rules (see below).

- Generally speaking, Japanese institutions have a very difficult time moving outside the box. If they have a written plan that is to be followed, that is what happens.

- The plan was to test people who had 4 consecutive days of fever (2 for older people) and close contact with people already diagnosed, and that's what happened.

- It took prefecture governors starting to do things on their own for the central government to start moving. That happened for school closures (Hokkaido leading the way, then Osaka, IIRC), and sending mild cases to hotels or making them stay at home, rather than occupy beds in hospitals (started in Osaka, IIRC)

- Hospitals have a shortage of equipment, and beds. Some prefectures have ramped up the number of available beds for infectious diseases. The government finally changed the rules to allow mild cases to be isolated out of hospitals (I think about a week ago, but it's hard to keep track of time these days).

- Some hospitals have closed their doors completely. The reason? Clusters of COVID-19 in staff and patients. Not because they were treating COVID-19 patients as COVID-19 patients. But because they were treating patients that turned out to have COVID-19. Or people with COVID-19 going there for consultations. Which is not all that surprising when you know people are reportedly going from hospital to hospital to try to be tested for COVID-19. If anything, I'm surprised there aren't more clusters in hospitals.

- There have been reports of ambulances having to try a large number of hospitals before finding an ER able to attend to their non-COVID-19 patient.

I wrote this on April 4: "the political response to covid-19 in Japan is pissing me off now. It now feels like watching a 100 km/h car running into a wall in slow motion, and the car is already in contact with the wall and absorbing kinetic energy."

Almost 3 weeks later, I think we're seeing the engine entering the passenger cabin.
Sure, the first order effect of minimum parking requirements is that there is more parking, which is nice in a situation like the one you describe. I don’t dispute that.

What are the second and third order effects and how do those effects compare with doing nothing? Will these laws be revisited as modes of transportation and the urban environment changes? (Spoiler alert, no). Without these laws would everyone just be permanently unable to park? Or would tenants, knowing how hard it is to park in public spots, pay a premium for private parking? Wouldn't those premiums incentivize developers to add private parking? But unlike the legal remedy, when those incentives go away, we don’t have to keep building parking spots.
known many LPRs in the US who were extraordinarily careful about their engagement in public matters out of concern about their status.

That has to be a function of knowing a particular variety of (however reasonably) paranoid LPR's, though, no? I can't imagine it being a core concern for the vast majority of LPRs.
E-commerce at scale is a lousy margin business. Walmart can’t turn a profit from it. Amazon doesn’t.

If you are Google why would you try and compete with them?

You already have sentiment analysis down as people search your site daily and use android to upload your life photos to their servers for analysis. Then you have Transaction data in their email you can analyze.

I think google is smart to let these other companies slug it out and to play tech partner to struggling brands.
That’s actually a great way to phrase it. It never occurred to me that this is how it should be done.
> You're right that, if you don't use Stripe.js, PCI compliance will be more work.

That is not what @brogrammernot wrote. What @brogrammernot wrote was:

> As far as not using the JS, I was under the impression as long as you’re not storing the account or card numbers & utilizing the tokens properly you’re still at the base level of PCI compliance - meaning you’re securing your website, endpoints, data store etc in the same manner you should be already.

Note the the conclusion of "... in the same manner you should be already."
> "There might be big difference in which media you read and which experts you listened to.

I read..."

This really doesn't matter for my point, there clearly are sources of truth out there, some more perfect than others, but they are not in effect shaping the discourse nor the policies. They are just voices in a crowd of equally credentialed institutions that have been caught doing very bad science, which is hurting public perception in general. It's even worse, the scientific institutions that are doing the best work often keep quiet because they don't have the clear evidence to support certain claims yet, leaving the field open to the ones marching forward with dubious relations. The Stanford Study being the best example.

My point is that the loss of public trust will be very damaging.

Why US outsourced bat virus research to Wuhan
I don't understand why you think this is nitpicking. If we test for the wrong thing, we will get garbage data about infection rates, disease severity, and death rates. If we test for the wrong thing, we will make garbage decisions about whom to isolate and how.

You can see that the submitter tried to spin this article by adding "0 deaths so far", apparently trying to suggest that "the coronavirus" is not as deadly as we think. But for this determination it's very relevant which coronavirus we are talking about.

I don't doubt that 73% of the inmates carry a coronavirus that causes the common cold. But that information doesn't tell us anything about the coronavirus that causes COVID-19. Since different coronaviruses have different rates of infectiousness, your conclusion of 100% in a few days is also only just a guess. If you test, you must test properly.
The joy I get by clicking on those buttons cannot be expressed in words here.
Huh. So I wonder. Say I'm old and have emphysema or CHF. And I got convicted of some crime that meant imprisonment.

Could my lawyer argue successfully that a year or whatever in prison was tantamount to a death sentence?

Is there any precedent for that?
That’s not where T14 comes from.

> There exists an informal category known as the "Top Fourteen" or "T14," which refers to the fourteen institutions that regularly claim the top spots in the yearly U.S. News & World Report ranking of American law schools.[8] Furthermore, only these fourteen schools have ever placed within the top ten spots in those rankings.[9] Although "T14" is not a designation used by U.S News itself, the term is "widely known in the legal community."[10] While these schools have seen their position within the top fourteen spots shift frequently, they have generally not placed outside of the top fourteen spots since the inception of the rankings.[11] There have been rare exceptions to this, however, such as UCLA School of Law appearing in the top fourteen instead of Cornell and Northwestern in 1987 and University of Texas School of Law displacing Georgetown in 2018, although the significance of these changes has been debated.

Well, you are just 1 person though. Can you speak for the (potentially secret, never spoken until it is that time) mind of other founders and the ideas of investors now and forever in the future? That seems rather unlikely.

The problem is also, that the damage done, when/if the data at some point is sold or hacked or whatever, cannot be properly compensated. What is your personal skin in the game, if that happens, besides going for a new, probably high paid job ('cause of impressive CV of being founder of Stripe)?
How can you say "...will never be sold/rented/etc. to advertisers"? Are you the fortune teller or a prophet? In case of a new CEO or changed ownership everything can change...
I don't believe there is anything as too stupid child. Not even a stupid child. They become stupid adults, often because of school and people there treating them as stupid children when in fact it's a problem with the socioeconomical/family situation.

I don't believe this. Social distancing won't last forever. You could say that nothing that requires people to stay 2m apart will last, and that clearly won't remain true forever.
Neither, really. Just for me it has a meaning already. Like if a service is called "Time" or "Hour". It's not bad or good, I just already associated with something else.
And all of them seem to use the same core audio/video tech which has terrible echo cancellation, variable lag, and clicky jittery audio...

I've heard it said that porn tends to have a large amount of chargebacks.

There would also, presumably, be a fear of censorship targeting your entire company for over a subset of content. Back in 2018 Tumblr was blocked from Apple's app store [1] and responded by banning all adult content on the service [2] - and I'm sure there's a similar risk from school/workplace/ISP NSFW blocking services which are of course famous for over-reach.

Obviously, tumblr could have shifted everything NSFW to nsfwtumblr.com but for various reasons, a lot of sites seem to take a deniable 'turn-a-blind-eye' approach rather than visibly embracing NSFW content.

You're asking for something you have to know nobody has polled on one way or the other.

But the number of people who disagreed with the law to begin with is probably a pretty good approximation for the number of people who disagreed with a campaign which is effectively promoting the law.

Does that kind of data even have value for advertisers ?

Beside the user tracking cookie I personally think the rest is fine if Stripe cannot tell some kind of buyer pattern (and sell it).
Although there were exceptions. If you got hitched to a high-visibility program, failure was considered a sabotage.

I wish I could recommend Firefox but I can't because it cripples performance of the things I'm working on, namely streaming and rendering large 3D data.

I'm using Firefox privately at home but for work, including work@home, I'm using almost exclusively Chrome. Chrome is just so much faster and the developer tools so much more polished than Firefox. DataView is 40 times slower in Firefox, and I'm using it quite extensively to read binary files. There is a Uint8Array hack/workaround that lets you write your own DataView that is 4 times faster in Firefox, but 10x slower in Chrome, so it's not an alternative I'm going to use.

Thanks! As I said, I hadn't look too far into it.
>You're asking for something you have to know nobody has polled on one way or the other.

Yeah, since you're arguing that the campaign was bad because people disagreed with it and stating it as a fact.

>But the number of people who disagreed with the law to begin with is probably a pretty good approximation for the number of people who disagreed with a campaign which is effectively promoting the law.

In what way?
I used Maven a few times. My biggest complaint was the stupid requirement to unlock the car with Bluetooth. The last time I rented a car, my phone never stayed in sync. I had to reboot my phone everytime I wanted to lock/unlock the car. And you'd better hope your phone doesn't die.
Yeah but... I'm not putting my mom on Teams. Ever. She figured out Duo in 5 seconds because there's almost nothing to figure out.

If its subsidized by the government, how is it a paycut? Similar programs in the US exist, for example states paying a 50% unemployment payment for employees who have their hours cut by 50%. Its a win-win - companies effectively pay nothing to keep their employees at a full time salary for reduced hours, and the government avoids needing to pay out full unemployment benefits to laid off employees.

GraphQL and Apollo looked attractive to me for all the reasons you stated, but I was just worried that the learning curve and making it play nicely with the rest of the stack (that I know quite well already) would be too steep to justify using for the prototype. I'm thinking of writing the prototype just using DRF and React Native but during each step of the process basically looking into how that step would be done with GraphQL.

Hah, that mirrors my wife’s experience in Riga - she came second and first in national physics competitions for two years, and was twice invited to enroll in a different school - but she stayed put, because she didn’t want to have to change trams twice, rather than a direct trolley bus.

Books form an interesting part of this HN posting anyway: I'm from East Germany and at that time I got much of the mathematical scientific literature as quite cheap (regarded to money, even workmanship, but not to content) russian translations from the Soviet Union. They were also quite fast in producing these, very close to the original publication (*).

The pricing model of the current locked-in science publication sector is completely ridiculous, counter-productive and even unjustified (research in many countries is supported by taxes, than the result should be free to the public). But luckily this changes with open access - legal and not yet legal.

edit: and not to forget, in some areas the soviet school of mathematics (meant as specific incarnation of mathematics as a discipline in the country) was excellent in itself.
Still seems unethical if the collected data is stored or stored in a processed form. The same technology can be used to uniquely identify users across devices.
