I didn’t know this, but I’m not a jb dev, and I only loosely follow the reddit. I guess I have no excuse, but I honestly didn’t know until you said this. I apologize if I did misidentified them indirectly by quoting. I hope I have not upset CoolStar or anyone else.
According to Wiktionary, the existing Middle English word "cury" (= "cooking") may have influenced the word.

Hard to judge to what extent he was nudged by Robinhood's marketing and UI towards risk-taking vs. initially predisposed. I agree that most other brokerages allow--and often even encourage, just less effectively--their customers to take similar risks. The difference is just that Robinhood seems unusually good at the "encouraging", with UI frills like the confetti and such, and their customers do anecdotally seem unusually prone to blowing up.

I'd re-emphasize my point as to your opponent's skill. Poker (or most other games of combined chance and skill) gives you an opportunity to practice both at lower stakes and against less skilled opponents. In the public markets, you can risk as little as you want, but you're always playing against the world's best counterparties, unless you can find some instrument that's both too small to be worth the professionals' specific attention and too distinctive for their existing algorithms to generalize.
Doesn't Redis already address all of this?
"supposed to" means legally.
5 percent isn't allowed but they can get away with it because fighting it isn't worth it.
It is 2020. If you comparing the performance of PostgreSQL and DynamoDB in terms of GROUP BY analytics, you have probably missed the Column Store revolution.

Now if these two authors actually focused on the trade-offs between these two architectures in terms of their sweet-spot, operational row stores, we might gain some insight.
Capitalists only pretending to care about an issue to improve their image while continuing to only optimize purely for profit instead of taking additional risk to do the right thing? Shocking. /s
“We’re competing against free,” Jeffrey Katzenberg says referring to the likes of youtube and social media platforms like TikTok. “We have to offer something that is meaningfully, measurably, quantifiably, creatively different. They don’t know how to do what we do, with all due respect,…”

This is what always strikes me...the knowledge that you are competing against a "new" category of entertainment but the hubris to dismiss it in one fell swoop...why wouldn't you ask "why did this cattegory crop up"; "is there something new going on here that they do better than us?"
Sorry I don't agree completely with your statement here.

I use a Garmin watch for track my running/biking, and it does play a role in inspiring me to lift my ass up. The metrics are what I find to be fun, and they even help me compete with myself to do better every single time.
I agree that Mirror is an overpriced commodity that 90% of us don't need, but there are always people going after the 'fancy' stuff.
What Is the Event Loop?

> There’s a lot of focus on price. $1500 isn’t terribly much if you’re building a home gym. A lower-end squat rack, bench, barbell, and weights set you back about that much. Another $500 for high end adjustable dumbbells

True, but you'll own that equipment forever, and it holds its resale value pretty well. As far as I can see, the Mirror hardware is useless without the monthly $40 subscription. There's always a risk with something like this that the company goes bankrupt, leaving you with an expensive wall-mounted TV that plays nothing but a black screen.

I'm also guessing it's mainly seasoned gym-rats building $1500 home gyms, and they all know what they're doing. Mirror is presumably targeting the larger/more clueless segment, who may be more price sensitive (though I suppose Peloton would prove otherwise).
True. That, too, is an interesting hypothesis.
The 603’s were horrible. With the slower cache and I believe they had less cache memory, the 68K emulator crawled. Back then, most of the OS itself was still emulated.
> (I don't understand what this obligation is about - surely it's my own choice whether my website is up or down?)

They are likely either saying that the uptime of the service relies on the use of captchas (i.e. it's a technical obligation), or it is implying that the majority of sites are commercially operated, wherein the operator has a financial/legal/contractual obligation that they deliver a working product.
Problem is it's not the VC's job to help minorities. And even if one VC chooses to do so, they might make their fund less competitive compared to other funds.

We can make a simple law:

If a VC has to operate in US, they must reserve X amount for the minorities.

If VCs think it's unfair and that minorities are not good investment then VCs can figure out how to "uplift" the minorities by creating much needed programs and network for them.
Yes, probably with superior performance. The clustering model seems to differ, but as far as I can tell, the 'distributed' part of this project isn't really implemented.
Ah, that’s why Firefox was notifying me that Reddit wants me to enable DRM recently. We new it was only matter of time, since they got this crap into the standard. Pity mofos.

Then there are ideas you just don't get around to... http://www.procrastinationjournal.com/
You don't have to use nvidia-docker to use cuda with docker. I made my own cuda containers based on Debian and pass the devices to the docker run command. I mount the libcuda and libnvidia libraries as volumes. I think that's what you mean by injecting the runtime.

Here's an example Dockerfile: https://github.com/dmm/docker-debian-cuda/blob/master/Docker...

And here's an example docker run command:

docker run -it --rm $(ls /dev/nvidia* | xargs -I{} echo '--device={}') $(ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/{libcuda,libnvidia}* | xargs -I{} echo '-v {}:{}:ro') dmattli/debian-cuda:10.0-buster-debug /bin/bash

Verbose but it works fine. You still have to have the nvidia driver installed on the host system.
I'm using Gnome actually. I have found that Wayland tends to keep some apps in check so maybe the less options that Wayland provides to clients is helping me here.
"Once the internet took off - as I recall - usenet started to become a cesspool of trolls and advertisements."

I can confirm. I'm still active there, however when USENET was created they couldn't know that when Internet entered in every house, the worst individuals would access it and very predictably abuse/exploit it. As of today I see no way it can be brought back without some serious technical modifications to keep trolls/shills/abusers away.
> I occasionally try doing more exercise than normal

This has never worked for me. The extra push is exhausting, and then I use that as an excuse to skip the next day, and eventually the habit breaks.

Don't overexert yourself, do only the amount that feels good and keep it easy so that you're not turned off when you need to do it again the next day.

Once you've built up a habit, you can slowly ramp it up, but trying to go too fast has always caused me to stop altogether. If you go slowly enough that you don't notice the additional exertion, you're much more likely to keep your habit.

Contrary to popular soundbytes, you actually can improve without pushing yourself too hard. It's weird going from barely being able to run half a mile to running five miles without getting seriously winded, but it does work, and you don't ever need to feel winded in the process. If you start to feel bad, stop. Don't beat yourself up if you didn't get as far as you did yesterday, just do it again tomorrow.

I was only ever able to do this slowly. Overexerting myself always failed.

As for fun... Eh. I've gotten to the point where I feel restless if I haven't gone running, so then I go run and shower, and then I feel great. But the restless itching feeling is the habit that makes me want to go, not fun in the moment. Maybe running is weird.

Having dipped my toe in mnemonic techniques, I think part of why we underestimate people of the past, is we have forgotten just how much the human brain is capable of sans external tech.

Spot on. The evidential value of a consistently written log can be huge and important for a wide variety of reasons. I have had two situations in my life where my having kept dated notes spared me a whole lot of grief.
Increasingly there are full word TLDs (see here: [0]), so I don't think people will find it that weird, especially since most people don't really spend a lot of time looking at the address bar.

The .onion TLD is named for onion routing[1] and has been around for quite a while as you pointed out. If it caught on, I imagine most people would accept the name without much thought. I think the bigger barrier to .onion catching on is getting people to install Tor at all.

I don't believe Reddit's demise will be like Digg's.

IMHO Digg was a success despite itself. Run more like a sophomoric Animal House [i] than a facebook or twitter. It was only a matter of time until it imploded.

Eh, I'm not sure I follow your reasoning. As you say, the reason there hasn't been a revolt is because the old UI is still up and working, but no matter how gradually they update the new one, the day they get rid of the old UI, there will be a revolt.

I guess the plan is that enough people will have started with the new UI and have never known the old one that even with the old people leaving, the site may still remain alive?
Amazon seems to adjust their base salary up in Seattle. But even an L5 at Amazon even if with a 10% discount is much more than I could make here.
Thanks for sharing, I'll check out the show.

Robotics has a lot of different areas. I think it's safe to describe self driving, drones, and delivery as very actively under development. It's not obvious who will win.

Then you get more industrial applications that attack a specific vertical, like in farming and construction.

Generally when it comes to autonomy, the application needs to work on top of hardware that works. I think that is the core reason why progress is hard: two different very hard problems to solve.
What about http, ://, www and other TLDs like .co.nz or .ac.uk? All of these were pretty meaningless to initiates of the internet. In this new age of ".pizza" and suchlike, ".onion" doesn't seem much different or weird tbh. (To be clear: I don't think these new tlds are especially good either, but it's the world we live in now.)

If the data might be subject to censorship or spying, yes - using an onion service protects users from having info like “you read about STI treatment” sold to their insurers.
I love and used reddit over the last decade. The day they force me to use the redesign will be my last day.

I really hope we will have an alternative or some 3rd party client because reddit is still a great way to get information or "socialize" with same minded people.

What was it about XMPP that made people move to facebook, slack, hangout or other closed systems?

In 2011, at my job everyone used their own favorite account to chat with each other. I'd logged on Empathy with my yahoo mail. My coworkers were on gmail, aol, yahoo, hotmail, facebook, and some I can't even remember. Chatting wasn't a problem. How did it go from being a convenient thing for everyone to everyone should use slack?
.tor would seem like it might make sense?
Truly this is a worldly gem. Thank you for submitting this. :)

It's easy to forget that, even though transmissions still travel at near lightspeed, it still takes more than an instant to reach its destination, even digitally. I should keep this in mind, I think.
Ah that's the one I was thinking of but couldn't find it. Thanks!

Open source is a good bit more trustworthy with keyboard permissions.
To me, .onion reminds me too much of The Onion.
Ha, you're telling me! Yeah, taking the site down was directly related to the Hacker News post. It will be temporary though.
I think "it's like onions because onions have layers" is probably something that a normal person can come to accept pretty readily.

"Ogres are like onions..."
That wouldn't solve the root of the problem, though. The real solution would be to use other distros.

Besides, there are quality concerns with browser forks maintained by an understaffed project. The fact that ungoogled-chromium asks for internet randos to provide its own binary releases doesn't inspire confidence either. If someone desperately needs to use Ubuntu, they'd be better off using Firefox.
Taptap looks really cool and I would like to use it, unfortunately my workplace doesn't allow 3rd parties to store the information that would be in my notes. Have you thought about a self-hosted version?
What’s the advantage of accessing an onion service (as opposed to accessing a normal https website over tor)?
Last century "network" and "web" were metaphors that meant nothing to the uninitiated -- I feel that ".onion" has a shot.
I think they do experiments, I used to get reverted daily, and so changed all my bookmarks to old.*. And at some point, they removed that behavior, and now remembers my prefs. The day they stop supporting old, I'm out of reddit.
Hey there, sorry to comment hijack - I really enjoyed this article. Was not aware of the Stable Marriage Problem and the associated algorithm and real life applications with medical students/roommates.

You're mistaking the forest for the trees. You could go look at a handful of other funded apps and evaluate their reviews. You're going to find similar things.

My point was that you don't need to get into a more subjective, personal quip, as the arguments brought by others (eg. The CV) here are already strong enough to dismiss the racism claim.
Any plans to allow users to blacklist domains? Even post search would be fabulous
The website cannot identify who they are, what ISP they use, or where they live. Similarly, middleboxes such as their ISP cannot find out what websites they are browsing, which is still easily possible even with TLS via many methods (DNS, SNI, IP correlation, many others)
Frankly that feels exactly like a Flash page. Natively selecting text content isn't supported on either Firefox or Chrome on Android (apart from within inputs). Scrolling is broken ("yanky").

Flutter for Web further feels like a nightmare for accessibility. I tried enabling the native Google screenreader on my device. It only says "No text found at that location" when I try to read any of the Flutter demo pages in either Chrome or Firefox. In addition to being extremely hostile to people with disabilities, it will soon actually be illegal to build new products with accessibility-hostile tech like Flutter for Web for large parts of the European public and private sector:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Accessibility_Act

> we're still in beta

From these viewpoints that feels more like an early alpha product. In 2020 no accessibility support is a non-starter.
From what I hear, a high quality cycle can be bought on the order of $1-1.5k I wonder if it would be possible to emulate the peloton experience with a software only startup that targets commodity bikes and rowers?

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Apologies for minimizing it before.
Yeah, last time Big Tech and farmers crossed paths, we got John Deere tractors with DRM.

If family farms are gonna use tech to automate and survive as such, the tech will come from smart rural folks. Think more Temple Grandin and less Elon Musk.
I question the sensibility of having the primary interface to a database be a query language as such; It's a pain to work with programmatically. I agree with the notion of starting from relational algebra, but rather than the interface being a human-oriented textual syntax, the protocol should be defined in terms of some widely supported serialization format (take your pick). This makes it easier to write query-builder libraries, which the humans can use. You really don't want to be doing string substitution to put queries together.
Quality traffic to your website at no cost

> Eh, when the time comes to scale I’d still very likely pick a RDBMS but hand my team copies of Eric Evans and ask them to design data schema and sharding scheme such that any given entity has a bounded context that doesn’t join across the network.

That will only help you scale out to N servers, where N is the number of bounded contexts. And it might end up being less helpful than it sounds, if the scaling needs are dominated by data in one or two bounded contexts.

Still, it could be a useful approach.
What I mean is, how is a .onion website over tor better than an https website over tor? I edited my comment to clarify.

> One solution to this is to store the ID of the pepper in the database alongside the associated password hashes

Wouldn't this expose the pepper to Database attacks (SQL injections, etc), and invalidate the reason for using it in the first place?
I’ll happily accept any wireframes you may have that wouldn’t increase friction beyond the typical “choose your username and password”.

You may be overestimating the typical non-hackernews user. It’s at least as challenging as getting users to use things like 2fa and/or recovery codes.
You can divide the problem into

- perception: sensors -> vector space (a list of objects with their locations)

- planning: vector space -> path

Both are hard, but for the planning problem you can do most of the training and testing in simulation. It's fairly easy to simulate the response of the car.

The perception problem is more expensive to solve, because you have to collect so much data under every weather and lighting condition.

I was meaning stronger relationships, as in ones that are more likely to get to "let's have kids". But I'll meet you at your point, is stability in a relationship a bad strategy?

My answers would be:

1. it's debatable

2. there are multiple viable strategies

3. any theory about what increases fitness needs testing and ones like this are very hard to prove or disprove since the signals are noisy.

> A male in unstable relationships can have far more offspring than a man in stable relationship

Theoretically can have, sure. But that doesn't instantly translate to that being a higher fitness strategy. For example - does that strategy work in practice, or only in theory? And if it does, what is the success of those offspring? An individual's reproductive success is only as good as their offspring's reproductive success. It's quite possible kids from stable homes are more likely to have more kids than those from unstable homes for a million subtle reasons.
I think its reasonable to write off development costs, given that it was the first of its kind. This is why we have government funded research: to create technologies that would be too risky for any private company to pursue. The question shouldn't be "is it profitable to create the first one?", its "once we've solved the hard problems, can the industry be profitable?".
How is disagreeing with another’s point of view hate?

I think you are using hate too liberally.
I haven't demanded anything of anyone, but for some reason you're telling me what I cannot do. Are you a moderator?

Where people have made scientific claims I've asked them for the source of their information. This is a reasonable question - not a "demand".

When someone replies to you citing another argument, it's reasonable to read that argument and to point out any flaws in it if you see them. That's what I did here. Was I not supposed to read it?

My argument doesn't rely on any citation other than Damore's memo itself, since it is the topic of discussion. I've already provided a link to that but here it is again for convenience: [1]

I followed the witch hunt against Damore very closely both at the time and since.

Without exception, every single critique I've read of Damore's memo is either a straw man, ad hominem, or a combination of both.

If you know of any counterexamples I'm happy to review them, but please pick the strongest argument rather than a long list[2]
