> It's really just that we don't have a singular corresponding word, not that they can't be translated.

Not to detract from your conclusion, but I think the current top comment, by jbay808, is a pretty good counterexample.

Of course, as per your point, they are able to offer a literal translation of what the word means. But without the cultural context, I can't actually use it. I'd have to explain what I meant so academically that the emotional weight would be lost to person I was talking to.
Technically, it’s a limited warranty. So they can deny your claim for certain reasons. One of which is water damage. Not a really good reason; if there’s water damage, replace the other damaged parts also, but it’s what their rule is.
Manually flagging posts, as Twitter has done, is unrelated to the algorithm.

The are aspects of solution shapes that Clojure enables that are unique and mostly completely different than other languages, but it is hard to appreciate them if you don't know it. One's intellectual appreciation is literally limited to the languages one speaks (both human- verbal and eg visual, like art, and computer programming).

I look at the benefits more concretely. It is usually possible to express a solution in Clojure with a fraction of the keystrokes another language requires, and Clojure also gives you knobs to control how many keystrokes you devote to the solution vs the stuff under the solution.

You can be all solution domain and be really lean, or you can make some reusable infrastructure to make the solution-side shorter, at the cost of something bigger overall.

The secret of good writing is usually distilled as- tell less, say more. Take away, cut, remove, until you get to the essence.

So many languages REQUIRE you to tell more, with ceremony and patterns and boilerplate. Clojure has some too, but for any given semantic intention, it generally requires the least ceremony.

It is breathtaking to wield a tool that lets you say, in a couple hundred lines, what it takes many thousands in other languages.

It is also hard, and such tools are sharp and can be humbling. But when you arrive at a place where there is no more to take away- I have not felt that "wow" in another language in quite the same way.

It's interesting if it's due to a library used and worth noting.
Wow! This is highly surprising and is totally unusual! They're embedding parts of the XNU kernel in Linux. I can imagine this was done as a last resort as there is pretty much no chance this will ever get upstreamed, not just because of licensing, but also simply just strangeness.
Programming is hard, and it’s only getting harder.

Managers don’t like this. They want to be able to hire programmers off the street with no experience and pay them a cheap salary. They want programmers to be plentiful and interchangeable. That is the dream.

But that’s all it is, just a dream that will never be realized no matter how many bootcamps and websites like this one come about.

The reason for this is there is no substitute for experience. Real experience. There are no shortcuts to becoming a developer. So don’t undersell yourself, your knowledge, or your experience.
That isn't really supported by the article you linked -- it describes C as an extension of B multiple times.

Yeah, out of all possible words and phrases they went with しょうがない... Even "whatever" comes close enough. For languages as far apart as Japanese and English, there is no shortage of words that will lose their nuances in translation - to what extent can be argued, but language definitely is tied to culture.

I think お疲れ様 is the phrase/word I miss the most in English, and I often catch myself wanting to say it to a non-Japanese speaker.

Conversely, "interesting" is a word I have been feeling a lack for in Japanese. As in "That's interesting" after hearing something.
This looks really cool although I find it disheartening that we need to resort to JavaScript simply to construct a decent table.
Fun fact about Nicolas Bourbaki in pop culture. A popular band, Twenty One Pilots, adopted the character of Nicolas Bourbaki in their concept album Trench. It's interesting since they commonly use the symbol Ø in their branding, which was introduced in mathematics by Nicolas Bourbaki to denote an empty set.
Not to mention beautiful. I'm betting they trained it on that "celebrities" dataset.

I think that you have to focus on whether you have a human in the loop and can the human reliably interrupt an automated kill chain before there is a release of ordinance (much less fuzing)

If there's any point that a human cannot 'abort', then it needs to be classified as a WMD.

Out of human control I view swarm UCAVs as an unrecallable remote shotgun for the same reason as the article author, it's "inherently indiscriminate".

One of the first comments posted in this thread today was "Is it related to the countless phishing pages hosted on your service?" from which we can deduce that the phishing problem on Gitbook is well-known to random members of the public.

Someone at the hospital in US would certainly be aware of it for two reasons:

1) It takes a significant amount of work to format and standardize this data

2) Sharing this data is a business model for hospitals, it's a means of income for hospitals in this day and age. It's not unheard of that a pharma company will pay up double-digit million dollars for this data. It is thus unlikely that top brass for a hospital network is ignorant of the nature of this data and with whom it is being shared.
The business problem still can include things like "concurrency", which is just -painful- in Java, especially if I/O bound.

I much prefer languages that make easy stuff harder, but hard stuff easier, than languages like Java that make easy stuff easier, and hard stuff harder.

I think the time between typing emacs on the command line to being "correctly" in the editor gets a disproportionate amount of developer attention.

I disagree with the conclusion that qualified immunity is unimportant. It's one small facet of a system which encourages hostile policing. Others include the practice of exclusively hiring veterans, access to military gear, friendly relations between police and local officials, and the nature of their training and culture. To some extent, these things reinforce one another. I think the larger problem can only be addressed by tackling the smaller problems one-by-one.
I don't know about other languages, but when a friend asked me this question for portuguese a long time ago, I came up with "pet, "firetruck" and "sitcom" as examples. The first two translate to a noun plus an adjective ("animal de estimação" and "caminhão de bombeiro", respectively) and are not that interesting, but the last one has no translation whatsoever as far as I know, primarily because the very existence of sitcoms is sort of predicated on high variety of TV channels, whereas in smaller countries, there usually is only one or two very dominant ones.

Usually the bulk of your perf. problem comes from a few hot places that are called often and the JVM needs to do reflection on those every time. Type-hint those and the performance usually goes through the roof.
> A 'tiao' of fish, A 'duo' of mushroom, doesn't really exist in the old Chinese

I'm not sure about those words specifically, but counters/classifiers in Chinese go back centuries and beyond. Linguists will often say Korean and Japanese are language isolates, but quite a bit of their grammar heavily inherits from Chinese in some way with little to no change. They use oftentimes identical classifiers in the same way even when referring to one object.

e.g., 個/个 is ge/gae/ko in Chinese/Korean/Japanese respectively. They're used for catch-all classifiers. 台 is tai/tae/dai and used to classify machines.

I'm generally supportive of HFT, I think the massive reduction in total profits to market makers relative to 20 years ago is proof of a positive-sum efficiency gain. But I'm not sure I buy your argument for why the nanosecond arms race is good.

Computers getting faster has allowed us to do more and different stuff with computers. What are the actual benefits of HFT "efficiency"? If stocks had an auction every millisecond wouldn't that still be plenty fast enough for any practical purpose?

Only other HFTs will notice or care that AAPL's price got updated in 1 nanosecond instead of 2. Or to go the other way, how would we be better off if stocks ticked every femtosecond? Every attosecond? Is there some limit where the benefits of this "efficiency" aren't worth the resources to pursue it?

Makes me wonder if they don't understand user-generated content, if Google Domains is more meant for small personal sites maybe?

I used to use a hosting company that had in their terms, that profanity wasn't allowed... The company seemed to have decent hardware, user interfaces and US based support too but ran by Mormons based in the beautiful state of Utah. I don't have much of a opinion of Mormons but I think pushing religious views on your customers is bad business.

So after noticing that in their terms I was curious since I run a personal WordPress blog, if someone wrote a comment even if it wasn't approved just by being in the database if it broke their terms and was told yes... Now that I'm a bit older, I wonder if they really are scanning database table text fields for swearwords or that support rep misunderstood what I meant... But after that discussion, I switched my domain and hosting elsewhere, two separate companies actually instead of just one account with both domain and hosting. If some spam bot or troll writes the F word, they are going to take my entire site down even if no fault of my own? Yeah, no thanks.

They got acquired though by a lot larger company and doesn't seem to have those same terms now though, and heard they now outsource their support. There was someone I used to talk to who was a big fan of them though and referred me. So slightly over a decade later, they are probably not even remotely the same company anymore though since merged with a much larger company. Wouldn't surprise me if they ended up getting rid of a lot of support staff and just kept a handful of people to manage the datacenter, since marketing, accounting, support, etc would probably be centralized between all the hosting companies they own I'd imagine, which is probably a blow to the local areas when they merged unfortunately. I guess that's one of the sad things about getting bigger, they lose that small town friendly startup feel probably as seemed like a great company other than forcing religious views on people. Just did some more research about their company, sounds like they were also anti-lgbt too sadly. Makes me wonder how many other people working their share those views or just something management was pushing down since looks like the church changed their policy last year... I've been wanting to go somewhere with more opportunities, and actually Salt Lake City is one of the areas I've been considering since seems like a bit bigger city and on the list as a place for upcoming startups.
Since this is being repeated multiple times, quoting benmaraschino:

One of these "studies" is a 2-page Google Doc with no real data. Another is the discredited Raoult study, which is under investigation by the journal [1]. Another study cited is also by Raoult's team. The Brazil study (ref. 29) doesn't seem to have passed peer review (yet?) and has severe methodological flaws. Like the Raoult studies, the Brazil study was not randomized, but makes no attempt to control for confounding by indication or self-selection, such as with propensity score matching or similar methods commonly used in observational studies. The last study cited isn't a study, but an article from a local news station.

I just noticed it and found it interesting.

Why is it interesting? Well for one, it raises an eyebrow as to the motivations behind either the technology or that of the promotional material produced for it.

I'd find it similarly interesting if, for an example, an entirely Russian team produced deepfake tech and produced promotional material for it entirely consisting of black people.

Especially in an era where we already acknowledge the prevalence of nation state cyber psyops / propaganda / manufactured news and "facts".

Tell HN: Google+ being replaced with Currents, for GSuite customers
We’re writing to let you know that Currents will become generally available (GA) on July 6, 2020. For Google+ users, the experience will be upgraded to Currents for your domain, <redacted>. If you are an existing Currents beta participant, your Currents experience will remain the same.

Currents has an updated look and feel to Google+, and provides additional features for users and administrators. We’re contacting you ahead of the release, so that you can prepare your users for this change. If your organization does not use Google+, no action is required.

What do I need to know?

Following the shutdown of the consumer version of Google+ in April 2019, we announced the beta launch of Currents. After Currents becomes generally available on July 6, 2020, your users and all of your organization’s existing Google+ content will be automatically transitioned to Currents. There will not be any downtime for users during this transition. Additionally, the new Currents mobile app will replace the Google+ iOS and Android mobile apps, which will no longer be supported. After July 6, 2020, it will not be possible to opt out of Currents or revert back to Google+.

What does this mean for my users?

Beginning July 6, 2020, users will be transitioned to Currents on all platforms. Currents provides users access to new features, including custom company streams, content discovery and routing via tagging.
Users of the iOS and Android Google+ mobile apps who have auto-update enabled will be automatically upgraded to the Currents mobile app, which replaces their existing Google+ mobile app. Other users will be prompted to upgrade to the new Currents mobile app (via redirection to the appropriate store) so they can continue using the service.
All existing links to plus.google.com will continue to work, as users will be transparently redirected to currents.google.com.

Can’t speak for others but a) i have no way to charge my car at home as I have no dedicated parking spot, and b) i have no need to use a car for commuting or short distances because I live in a city, so this change might actually make electric viable in US cities.

Perhaps if you own a house in a suburbs and commute the same amount daily to a spot that also coincidentally has an electric charging spot your view is realistic
Note that our official Redux Toolkit package [0] already uses Immer by default, and we have recommended using Immer with Redux in our Style Guide docs page [1]. (We also specifically recommend _against_ using Immutable.js in that page as well.)

Fun fact: because reducers are _just_ plain functions, there's not actually anything Redux-specific about them. That means you can use any reducer with React's `useReducer` hook as well. I've used RTK's `createSlice` function to generate strongly-TS-typed reducers for use in React components a number of times.

How does "saudade" differ from nostalgia?
Ugh man I love vim but now I have to be the one to bring it up: this is exactly why org-capture is so useful. Jotting down quick notes / tasks / todos and being able to customize exactly how these get filed or templated is exactly why org-capture exists.

That said after locking myself into Spacemacs to use org-mode and org-capture, I always wish there was a way to make org a bit more independent of Emacs, or at least a bit more collaborative. We use Asana at work for tasks / issues / todos and syncing that between my TODO.org and back again can be tiresome when trying to preserve information and context. I'm definitely better at maintaining my org files, but Asana preserves context in a more clean way because people can collaborate and add information to tickets, whereas they can't do that with org files.

If this were enacted in the U.S. I would expect the parking spots with charge ports to be filled for hours at a time, using up parking spots for the convenience store. Not the end of the world, but gas station operators and non-electric customers would probably find it annoying.

Gas stations are setup to service cars in minutes; to re-charge a similar number of electric cars in the same time would require either new battery technology that can be charged at something like 30C or a huge parking lot. Having more chargers around is a good thing, but gas stations aren't ideal for more than an occasional customer. It might be good in rural areas though that wouldn't otherwise have any chargers, as a sort of emergency backup charging location if some unwary traveler finds themselves without enough charge to get to the nearest city.

Getting the "real desert experience" in terms of migrating with camels or whatever must be hard in recent years.

In Moroccan-occupied Western Sahara there is a heavy police presence that doesn't want foreigners straying off the main highways, because foreigners might make contact with representatives of the oppressed indigenous Saharawi people. Sure, hundreds or thousands of elderly Europeans go down there every winter in their camping cars, Senegalese immigrants in Europe driving home to visit etc., but all they see is the tarmac running alongside the coast or the occasional towns.

In Mauritania, police tend to discourage you from wandering for different reasons, they don’t want their tourism industry to suffer again from incidents of foreign tourists being attacked by militants. For similar reasons, southern Algeria is said to be difficult to move around in freely, and Libya is completely off-limits to tourists due to unrest.
