"ATC should have ordered a go around" implies some authority that is not there. The commander (captain) has final responsibility for the safety of the aircraft. ATC effectively has an advisory role; they issue instructions rather than orders and the commander can ignore any ATC instruction if they believe it to be necessary for the safe performance of the flight.
Perhaps our misunderstanding is just one of definition then. I understood nuance to mean something like this from Merriam-Webster: "sensibility to, awareness of, or ability to express delicate shadings (as of meaning, feeling, or value)". A nuanced discussion according to that definition would be one that takes into account the various complexities and positions involved in a topic, rather than papering over them with political rhetoric, partiality, or fallacious reasoning.
I signed up for an account just to respond to this. I run a small, low-budget, lean startup and we were banking on the starter plan lasting us at least 6 months as we gradually scaled. You cited in the blog post that making this change was supposed to "reduce entry costs" but how has this happened?

Just the limit of the old free plan would cost you more than the old starter plan! The limit of the old starter plan would cost like 7x as much now. Can you give a single use case under which the new pricing is cheaper for entry level customers?
Off topic, but if someone uses "gut reaction" and "barf" in the same sentence, I'm tempted to think they really mean it literally...
I actually enjoy being ranked #5 in a game rather than #18291. Honestly, even in the low thousands, I don't normally check my rank.

I have very recently played a game with about 15 active players. I ranked quite low, but it was a lot of fun. There's nothing necessarily wrong with an unpopular game and it's sometimes nice to be "significant" in a small community. MUDs are still around and many have at most a dozen players on at any one time.
Yes but vastly faster, and requires less setup.

> WikiData is a seemingly genius concept -- turn all those boxes of data into a queryable database! -- kneecapped by academic but impractical technology choices (RDF/SPARQL). If they had just dumped the data into a relational database queryable by SQL, it would be far more accessible to developers and data scientists.

Note that the internal data format used by Wikidata is _not_ RDF triples [0], and it's also highly non-relational, since every statement can be annotated by a set of property-value pairs; the full data set is available as a JSON dump. The RDF export (there's actually two, I'm referring to the full dump here) maps this to RDF by reifying statements as RDF nodes; if you wanted to end up with something queryable by SQL, you would also need to resort to reification – but then SPARQL is still the better choice of query language since it allows you to easily do path queries, whereas WITH RECURSIVE at the very least makes your SQL queries quite clunky.

Yes, it's tiring. I sometimes complain I don't have any time to play video games anymore. But that's it: I complain about not playing video games, not about not working on projects. I suck it up and open the code editor.

And I want employees who have the fortitude to do the right thing rather than the easy thing.

Edit: I want to also note, I don't just dump the kids on my wife. She has her own side projects she does. She writes sci-fi novels.
One thing is nuance and truth. There's a lot of people capable of intellectual honesty who can argue about a topic with healthy levels of nuance if they are in the right state of mind, if they have time, peace and motivation to do it. This could be collected in magazines and other publications... well, at least if this kind of nuance and truth could be consistently valuable to a broad public. But it's not just that it's hard to tell apart this kind of content, but rather that we learn at very different rates, derive value from very different ideas, and the rest can quickly and easily become "noise" for us, while it's not for others. Some authors are original enough to combine new ideas with nuance and intellectual honesty, and those cases might be very interesting, but you can't really expect that in high and sustained doses. SSC was interesting in this sense, plenty of books are interesting in this sense, but they are mostly individual voices.

Another completely different thing is trying to build communities around those values. And even then, one thing is the real world, educating children to be rational, intellectually honest, critical... another thing is creating small physical communities with that kind of people, and yet another is creating "large scale", open, highly visible spaces that still have consistently high quality contributions. This last case seems unlikely to me. You either require large scale moderation, with all the potential problems that that involves (logistically, morally, and for the scope of the discussions [I still think it tends to be better than no moderation. Small communities are naturally moderated by the fact that no one interested enough in a topic will get to find the community]), or you need everyone to be intellectuals with similar priorities and a strict discipline to shut up unless you are in the best conditions to contribute (have something useful to contribute and they are in an emotionally stable state when they can best fight against their own biases and whatever). Both seem pretty impossible.

Other approaches are possible, though, and have been used in many cases in similar and different contexts. Basically, entry doors to large communities that interact in smaller subgroups. Take forums and threads, reddit, google itself where you can search whatever you want but end up in a random blog, etc. The main issue is structuring information and interests in an accessible way / discoverability, standardizing the interaction methods... but there will still be a lot of noise. You could try with other ideas like allowing authors or discussion starters to filter by themselves the answers, and have both filtered and unfiltered discussions, so readers can access to "highly curated" discussions on the topics they enjoy, while also being able to switch to the mess that real interaction inevitably can become (and with it, the broader perspective, which can only ever be fuzzy and noisy).
> How do other devs deal with this?

Most people don't care, because the intersection of their personal projects and anything related to the business they work for is basically non-existent (your average corp won't care about your cool database of Marvel comics). That plus the difficulty in enforcement and the fact that European copyright laws tend to protect individuals (in the UK, for example, as long as you assert copyright you get moral rights that cannot be reassigned and are harder to waive), usually result in people not caring too much about that clause.

Smart employers will just use non-compete clauses to simply let you free to do what you want as long as it's not in their area of business. I argued for this with my current employer at hiring time and they had no big qualms with making a slight change to allow for that.

This said, if your personal and professional projects do in fact overlap significantly, then you should raise the issue with your employer during the hiring process, because that's much more of a minefield.
Police infiltrate encrypted phones, arrest hundreds in organized crime bust
It does seem surprising (and I was all ready to slate rust until I remembered to build for release). If you care that much - naive FORTRAN iteration on the same machine, same compiler, took 1200 s.

(I am, obviously, taking inspiration from "There's plenty of room at the top": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23442123. Naive FORTRAN's slow even compared to C there, but it's not the same machine anymore so not apples to apples. Also, as a small point - I initialised all matrices with random numbers. Below half a second and that might start to be a significant time demand.)

I commented on this thread, because it definitely seems to be in the realm where the compiler matters. So there is opportunity.

Not so much. And the original Python variant is a) slowly growing old in features, b) the Python3 variants are unfinished and are missing support. I don't remember exactly in what respect, but I evaluated things some months ago and reluctantly installed the ruby gem of AsciiDoctor. I would have prefered a Python solution very much in my Python-driven environment. Also, a 'pip install asciidoc' would be very welcome.

When I was coming up as a CMS operator there were a lot of jobs to undertake site updates for banks and law firms - the JDs were always caveated about needing to understand both regulatory as well as security issues.

I never applied as I like pushing the boundaries when it comes to using CMSs, but if they're calling it out from Day One it's also on the operator to not do it even if they could.

Completely agree, Terraform doesn't abstract away the cloud specific bits, it pretty much exposes the raw resources.

I think many people are more constrained by their energy than by literally not having time. And this isn't something that's always under person's control - different people need different amount of sleep, have different quality of sleep, different mental endurance, might have various mental and physical health issues (not even necessarily perceiving themselves as unwell in any way - just enough that they can't muster energy to do that hour of coding that they would like to do each day).
Hm, I think we have to be a bit careful about the legacy of the classical world being "interrupted". This may be true in part (wasn't it that central heating was lost to Britain even though it had been known in Roman times?), but contrary to popular belief, the middle ages were in many respects also a continuation of the classical world.

For one thing, the Eastern Roman empire continued to exist until the 15th century and it is there that e.g. the Justinian code of law was devised, which, as far as I know, is still the basis of many modern legal systems, while itself being built upon ancient Roman law.

But even in Western Europe, Christianity can be seen as a continuation of the Roman Empire: It's not as if the religion hadn't been substantially changed and "romanised" after Constantine made it state religion. Also, in terms of scholarship, many key classical philosophers / scientists were never forgotten; Aristotle in particular remained a key influence. And, contrary to popular belief, middle ages scholars knew perfectly well that the earth was round, as had been shown by Ptolemy and others before him (they thought it was at the center of the universe, but as far as I know, nobody had successfully proven otherwise in antiquity either).
Da Vinci's experiments with "frescoes" were tragicomical themselves. The guy really tried his darnedest to make frescoes as lifelike as oil paintings. Results: most of his fresco works are either lost or need a lot of restoration work.

Today's twitter row is the "cancellation" of a history broadcaster for using the phrase "so many damn blacks" in a video, which is probably not a criminal offence Mark Meechan notwithstanding, but is definitely unambiguously racism.

Honestly, Apple one-upping GDPR banners with privacy warnings is excellent news for me. Not sure if my opinion is shared by the majority of HNers though, as I've heard the sentiment that banners and warnings are just annoying for web developers and visitors alike. But for me, it gives hope that we could overcome the dire state of the web and attention economy. I can say that GDPR banners being displayed left and right in EU have massively changed my browsing habits already. I allow non-functional cookies only for sites that have something to offer in exchange; other sites that I occasionally/inadvertently visit greeting me with massive banners I'm leaving faster than the banner can render. Banner warnings have even trained me to "think twice" before clicking on a link, subconsciously bracing for crap and weighing if I really need those megabytes. But maybe it's just me; I'd really like to see some stats about changed user behaviour due to banners and privacy warnings.
I can't agree with this list enthusiastically enough. Thank you.

The rule of thumb that if your side project is "related" to your employers work - its theirs - the problem is can you afford the layers to assert that right.

Yes, I have reduced both statistics and ML to the subsets that are usually used when working in the field, because the blog post was about employment options.

I would wager that people doing non-parametric statistics are both very rare and most likely advertise themselves as machine learning experts, not as statisticians.

As for the random network, I was referring to https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.13299 and I have seen similar effects in my own work where a new architecture was performing significantly better before training than the old one was after training.

If you want a generally agreed upon example, it'd be conv nets with a cost volume for optical flow. What the conv nets do is to implement a glorified hashing function for a block of pixels. That'll work almost equally well with random parameters. As the result, PWC-Net already has strong performance before you even start training it.

Well, I honestly have never seen actual witch burning happen. Yet I know it's wrong and it should not happen.

> If that actually for some reason causes a PR shitstorm for your employer, you've damaged their business.

Really? You know, I have huge doubts about this. What happens is that people are afraid of making an implicit statement by not taking an action, not of their business to be damaged. Huge companies are still made of people, and those people are afraid of being seen as making a statement that might damage them personally. But the actual risk of a business impact is almost zero.

Now that I think of it, kudos to Zuckerberg for having the balls to put a stop to this and calling out the bluff.
Not just the kind of hospital room, but I'd say it's the main difference (there are many different supplemental insurance products anyway). And I don't thing "semi-private insurance" is a thing anywhere else.

Even if you're right and the term is used more generally than I thought, my main point stands: it's quite different from what people in other countries call "private health insurance" so in the context of the discussion here the distinction is relevant.
I agree, it's not a valid excuse but it's the truth. Someone running a blog just wants a nice easy way for someone to Like their content on FB, they don't understand the tracking surveillance mechanisms inherent in that widget.

> "because it was a convenient way for their developer to include it" implies it was a deliberate choice also

I didn't word it well but that was my point. For the same reason, I wouldn't pick the "CDN" headline as it gives a possibly false narrative too.

> PLUS, "using as a CDN" is what the site was literally doing, from a functional standpoint. It was pulling that script from Internet Archive, using their upload bandwidth.

I'd be fine with "using their bandwidth". I don't see how the Internet Archive having a CDN or not is important to the story, and including this fact in the headline makes it sound important.
>If not it is gross negligence on the bank's side

Even though it went through different restoration processes, the original is still the original

Much like the Amphitheatre Nimes is not closer to the original Colosseum, even though it suffered much less damages over the centuries and had virtually no visible restoration (some of the Colosseum ones are quite bad honestly)

The last supper importance is not just the painting itself, but also who originally made it and the history behind it.
Given the damage it causes to the environment, flying should be less comfortable, not more.
Adding scripts might be considered OK (content editors could be given light-weight developer tasks), but modifying the site's CSP definitely isn't. There aren't many things you can do to stop an attacker injecting code in to your site, but having a CSP that whitelists servers under your control and blocks everything else is something that you can implement. Changes to the CSP should not be done lightly.

The fact that the CSP is whitelisting archive.org makes this look like an attack to me, or at least a test run before a real attack. I don't believe this was a simple mistake.
I don't know how to respond to this: I have not said anything that would support either horn of the dilemma you have so cleverly tried to trap me in.
