The police aren't supposed to punish people. The courts are supposed to determine guilt and and punishment, as everyone has a right to a jury trial.

Tear gas, rubber bullets, and any other form of violence is only supposed to be used when people are somehow in real danger. That's why the police often insist they are "protecting themselves", as they tear gas protesters who weren't doing anything remotely threatening. They're pretending that they're obeying the law.

We've tried to go the intern route and hire American undergrads as interns and then convert them to full time by offering them, the conversion rate isn't as good as you think, and they have a LOT of options in the valley.

Let me assure you, the biggest problem faced by any company, startup or otherwise is talent, it's extremely hard to find good talent, We could tweak our tech-stacks to be most open to a wide range of people and bring the bar down. But the bottleneck is still talent.
You have to remember that policing in the US has a strong lineage from the slave patrols of the antebellum era. That aspect of racial abuse and control is the set point for policing and safety in the country.

Also, the dyld shared cache isn’t just some archive containing exact copies of the dylib files. Among other things, the cache builder pre-resolves references between different dylibs in the cache. This saves time on process startup, and also allows pages to be shared between multiple processes even if they contain relocations, saving memory. But it means that even if you could symlink to a byte range, you couldn’t just have the original dylib paths be symlinks to parts of the cache. (It might be possible to make this work with enough effort, but it would be very nontrivial.)

Note that the dyld shared cache itself has existed for a long time; the only change here is removing the original copy of the dylibs to save disk space.
The dictionary’s order of meanings is a poor authority for determining the meaning of a word in a certain context. For example, if you’re reading a geology research paper that repeatedly mentions “cleavage”, you should interpret that word to mean “the splitting of rocks or crystals in a preferred plane or direction”, even though that’s the last definition of “cleavage” in the dictionary. Similarly, if someone is talking about design and using the word “accessibility”, the disability-related meaning of the word becomes the most likely meaning, even though that meaning is used in a small fraction of all English text.

I do see why the normal meaning of “accessible” is appropriate here – you aren’t able to visually access the information as quickly. In this case I would use terms like “readable” or “information-dense” to avoid confusion.

Ask HN: If I broke a Google App Store feature, can I report it ANYWHERE?
I literally don't know where to report it. I tend to push customization features to their extreme ... I broke Ticketmaster by adding too many bands to their 'monitoring' feature, and had to get a CSR to clear them out. I think I've done the same to Google.

A long time ago in far earlier Android days, I used the "X" that is to the right of any app - that lets you supposedly remove it from your app history/library - on a large number of apps.

Now -- and this has "traveled" with me from Android phone to Android phone - any listing of my app "library" is marred by massive delays while it "skips" over those long-ago-X'd out apps. The listing will scroll down and when it hits a removed entry, pause a tiny bit - but the cumulative effect of those pauses added up has slowed down the app intolerably for me in several kinds of situations.

I'd love to either have that issue addressed (honestly, installing multiple apps at once is a nightmare in Android, you have to wait not only for download but for installation before it moves onto the next) ...

... or at the very least have an option to restore those X'd out apps so as to stop the delays.

I'm the kind of guy who'd be happy to open a ticket with someone but this doesn't seem to be a thing where even a ticketing system is open to the public. I know Hacker News may have some Google staff -- even if you can't address the problem yourself, a pointer in the right direction would be appreciated. It seems as if the only other option would be to start an entirely new Google account, and that'd be problematic for many reasons.
Regular Americans have very little interest in the rest of the world and derive very little ego from that global role. Americans are nearly universally mocked for that lack of interest. The notion they derive much ego from something they pay so little attention to and have so little interest in, is obviously false. Regular Americans are largely indifferent to the rest of the world.

Trump got elected in part on a platform of ending the globalist war machine and reducing the superpower footprint (and the machine has been fighting him on that every step of the way, see: Bolton's new book, where he says the craziest thing Trump did was not attack Iran). Americans overwhelmingly want that reduction. He's going to be the first President since Jimmy Carter four decades prior, to not get the US into a new war. There were only a few aspects of Trump's campaign that were widely popular, one of which was stepping back from being the world's everywhere superpower. Why would Americans want that if their ego is so tied up in it? Because it's not. The US economy is what makes it powerful (going all the way back to the Civil War era), not going around the world playing superpower. Regular Americans are focused on their own lives, making ends meet, not worrying about Libya-Egypt-Turkey-Syria-Russia.

Americans are very clearly sick of policing the world and how much it costs; they're sick of the cost of being spread around the world and involved in every conflict.

In my experience what we have in a lot of places are cultures of anti-competence.

In a competence culture, you try to understand your sphere very, very well, including not only the current facts of the matter but how those facts might change under different circumstances. Then you try to understand enough of spheres of people around you that you can bracket what will affect you, and how you will affect them. It's implicitly understood that the functioning of the entire enterprise comes from people doing this.

In anti-competence culture, the functioning of the entire enterprise is mysterious and located somewhere else where it's not your problem. You only know as much about what you're doing as you need to barely keep going. You try to know as little about what's going on with others as possible, and if there is any interaction between you, you try to minimize and even resist it, in the hopes that you will have to change as little as possible or changes will be discovered to be unnecessary or deemed to be too expensive.

You want to stay in the cultures of competence. What the article is describing is just how much of the other kind is out there.

> The vast majority of police killings are of people who were armed and chose to get in a fight with them

As the NY State report on police-on-police shootings I posted an article about elsewhere in the thread notes, rapidly turning your head to identify the source of a verbal command from a previoisly unseen police officer is the kind of thing that, to police, constitutes non-compliance and choosing to get in a fight with them. Even when you are an off-duty or plainclothes cop who has called for backup, and, much more likely if you are a Black or Latino out-of-uniform cop in that situation.

Black people are certainly killed by police at a disproportionate rate relative to their population, that is an objective fact. This does not necessarily imply that there is racial bias by the police, however. For example if black people encounter the police 2-3x as much, you would expect them to be killed by police more frequently as well even without any bias.

As someone who used MacBook for ~5 years I miss touchpad especially for switching between workspaces.

The closest alternative (for me) on Ubuntu (Gnome) I've come up with is Super+J/K for switching between workspaces and, as a bonus, moving windows between workspaces with Super+Shift+J/K. Feels almost as productive as on MacBook with touchpad
It is both, in the same way as a function is both its implementation and its "extension" (its effect on all inputs). You don't need to know how `sort` is implemented, if you know that it sorts; similarly, you don't need to know how Bolzano-Weierstrass is proved if you want to use it.
It's inspiring to see that you are still taking time out for exercising and learning in such a situation, and are optimistic about the future. I hope things work out for you.
Why psychiatrists don't share personal information with patients (2016)
Raj here, I'm the founder of Prophecy. Previously, I was the product manager for Apache Hive at Hortonworks (and wrote compilers for CUDA at NVIDIA, and Microsoft). The tooling for data engineers is really poor, and I saw many of my customers struggle with it. It's 2020, Elon just send people to Space station, and we can't build semi-decent data engineering tools?? - we've got to do better. So we'll fix it! Prophecy is unique:

- Unlike all existing ETL tools, we're code-first and Git centric. So we're perhaps we are the first Data Engineering tool.

- We want to give Apple like high quality design, and it-just-works experience.

We've built a unique CODE=VISUAL IDE where you can toggle between visual and code editors instantaneously. You can edit code, and the changes show up in visual graph, and vice-versa. So even if you use visual drag-and-drop view to edit a workflow, you're doing Git commits. You can just go to the underlying Git folder and do maven build. Same for unit tests. We've added one-click spin up of Databricks cluster from IDE and step-by-step execution.

We want to enable you to:

- Develop 10x better code for Spark

- Develop 10x faster on Spark

- Deploy to production 10x faster with CI/CD on Spark/Airflow.

For the beta, when you submit your e-mail, we create an account and send you login details. You can create Spark workflows, spin up clusters (in-built, on Databricks, free - please be kind with usage) and execute these. Please try out and give feedback, help us make data engineering better!

> After all, they are not apples-oranges comparison

And more: Them are the MOST useful comparisons. Compare 2 oranges is not as useful than compare an apple and orange. You have MORE useful differences and more insights on what make them similar.

In the case of speed:

I compare a bike and a car. Is unfair? yes. But, if the GOAL is how fast is go to the next city, is totally worth to know that the car is better.

However, if the goal is what is the most ENVIRONMENT FRIENDLY why to travel, the bike win.

Comparing 2 very different vehicles is far more useful.

The non-recursive Go fibonacci implementation computes in ~160ms and uses only 1.5mb on my MacBookPro (and I can get the binary size down to 850K by stripping symbols and using the println builtin instead of fmt.Println). This microbenchmark seems to tell us more about function call overhead than it does about typical application performance.

Further, while I don't doubt that Crystal binary sizes are smaller in general, I don't think we can get much information about binary sizes from these micro-toy-sized programs. For example, the Go version shaved off a full mb by using the `println` builtin rather than `fmt.Println`, probably because the former pulls in more of the runtime than the latter. These toy benchmarks are very sensitive to these kinds of things, and the size of the runtime is going to be a trivial portion of the size of any real application anyway.
Typefaces cannot be copyrighted. The actual font code can.
Yeah exactly this.

Luck is arguably the most important variable, so optimize for it. It's less like buying lottery tickets and more like betting on horses but with outsized returns.

If you bet on one horse, in one race, you'll probably lose and blame luck. But if you keep on betting, you're going to get lucky.

5% chance of success on a given attempt just means try 50 times. Which is also why it's important to test ideas fast and cheap, killing bad ideas quickly.

Practically speaking, who you know, who knows you, where you are, and when seem to be the external factors, and the number of distinct attempts seems to be the internal factor.

Do you have any other insights to add?
There would be cleaner ways to achieve this, maybe not specifically autoconf since I think that's more tailored towards "normal" (user space) stuff.

Macros are convenient to quickly check the version in your code without adding another layer of tooling... Until you end up with said macro soup of course.

This... is a good warning (after I found this googling [1]), thank you!

But, this made me more curious; is there something specific about IPS panel (vs. TN) that I should know? In that link, it seems like that the panel survived but the backlight diffuser layers got ruined. Theoretically, one could replace that...

I ask this because I wonder if you meant the glass-sandwich construction of the panel when you say "inner layers", and some chemistry of the liquid crystals. Or am I assuming too much?

In any case, thanks!
