I don't think you had to go as far as asserting that the parent is overtly lying. It's far from impossible to honestly believe the police "oppress working class people", especially if you have any personal experience to bias your view that way.

I think you could flip the status quo on its head, by promoting a full 10M (or 5M...), and making it clear it is NOT the annuity value sum like you do for lesser prizes, since I would argue that your competitivity/differentiation comes from the fact that you don't lose money to play.

Also describing the lottery mechanism without any gotcha is the right thing to do for consumers, and being in the unique position you are, you have the opportunity to lead that change.
Thank you, exactly what I was meaning to say.
Because that is how this world works. You may be new out of the womb intellectually speaking, but if a child shows up at my doorstep one day and tells me I'm on his ancestors land from 300 years prior and I must vacate the home I bought and have legal title too, on the land my ancestors fought and bled over 300 years prior, even if they were assholes about it at the time, I have zero obligation to hand it over because of feelings.

That is why. You may not find it fair, but there does come past a point where the only fair thing to the present society, that had no hand in the original act, is to "keep on trucking" as they say.

Which it was, by the (post-Armistice, pre-18th-Amendment-ratification) “Wartime Prohibition Act”.

Also to OP, definitely just try it before you knock it. I also thought Peloton was kind of silly then one day I had the opportunity to actually try it. I wouldn't say it fits in my workout plans, but it was fun and it was a workout.

I get the impression a lot of the criticism levied here comes from people who have never even tried these experiences.
Sure it did. In the 1910s Congress' Commerce Clause powers wouldn't have encompassed purely intrastate commercial activity. The legal landscape was already changing, slowly, but in no way would a national law have been effective without a constitutional amendment. Heck, at that time the Supreme Court interpreted the ratified Prohibition Amendment not to apply to homemade liquor for personal consumption, despite the plain text of the amendment.[1] Compare that to Gonzales v. Raich (2005) where the Supreme Court permitted Congress to regulate, under Commerce Clause powers alone, homegrown marijuana for purely personal use.

Perhaps the line of reasoning you're alluding to is that, at the time, state and local prohibition laws were already so common that the Prohibition Amendment shouldn't have changed the effective legality of alcohol consumption for most Americans. But to maintain the status quo in perpetuity, locking in Temperance Movement reforms without defectors slowly eating them away, a national law was desirable.

[1] I'm still looking for the citation, but IIRC the reasoning was that the court wouldn't interpret the amendment to reach private, non-commercial activity unless it was explicit on that point; it wasn't just a cop-out textualist dance with the word "manufacture".
Hiring manager here.

In a resume, I want to see where you've worked, how long you were at each job, and your major accomplishments at each. Those can be technical and non-technical -- perhaps you made some excellent people process improvements you can showcase. I don't want to see your hobbies or where you went to high school, keep it professional and relevant to work. Personally, I use LinkedIn as my resume. If a recruiter wants something different, they're welcome to use print mode or format it in Word / PDF themselves.

I don't care about your GitHub profile. It's a small value add, nothing more.

Ageism is not a thing I've seen. I've worked at a trendy unicorn and was involved in hiring multiple people 30+ and at least one 50+. I'm in my mid 30s.

At your level, I really want to know how you work with others and influence teams across an organization. Your tech skills are now secondary to your people skills, but you still have to be up to date on tech since you'll be one of the driving forces at the company.

Why don't you want to rely on your network to set you up in the future? It's one of your biggest professional assets and will open doors to jobs that aren't publicly advertised.
A fuckload. There are 160M active domains. Say 2% of them are news sites with tens of thousands of active articles, another 2% is e-commerce sites and forums with also tens of thousands of pages, and the rest have like 50 pages on average. So you have something like 154M sites x 50 pages each x let's say 200KB per page that makes it 1.540 TB of data. And for the rest 4% let's assume 20.000 pages on average by 2MB each, that gives another 250.000 TB. And then you add sites like YouTube which could easily triple the above numbers. You'll end-up with a million TBs at least. That's like 100.000 HDDs.
Why should everything be federalized? There is no article in the constitution which mandates (or permits) federal supervision of state powers (such as the police power). The fact that voters fail to hold their lower-level governments to account does not mean that all power (and failure) should be centralized.
Being also a vim user, I prefer the arrow keys to the idiomatic hjkl, for anything within a “block” or paragraph. If further away, I would probably “/“ too sh

> The fact that technicalities have far reaching effects is a sign that the system is broken.

I find that an utterly hilarious thing to say in a forum with a large number of highly technical people, and another large number of people who understand complex, nontechnical systems.
Would same-sex civil unions count? Or women and gay people in the military? There are a ton of social issues that society has moved dramatically leftward on; the fact that I agree with them doesn't mean I'm unable to step outside of my biases and understand why a conservative could just as easily make the claim that the left is intransigent.
Like many supreme court decisions, the individual case at hand is not really the point. It sets a precedent for other law. This specific offender has spent decades in prison already and can now be tried in federal court if need be.

I'm sure no one here is supporting this offender, but whether someone is guilty or not, they are entitled to a just trial that properly follows the legal system. The supreme court has ruled that he was not afforded that.
They aren't really sovereign nations though, right? Like if a tribe decided to build a giant meth industrial complex or a nuclear weapon facility on their land, the US federal govt is going to shut that down ASAP.
There are more parts to freedom than just freedom of speech.

What are the implications of this for non-tribe-members who live and have business on the land in question?
I think it means that the borders of Oklahoma get more complex when you consider the treaties that the US has entered into.

It's worth noting that according to the constitution, treaties have equal weight to the constitution. Therefore this ruling seems to me a way of saying "hey, maybe we should draw the maps according to the highest law in the land".

It has a bonus effect of signalling that the native people are actually people for both punishment AND benefit. Traditionally the US is bad at acknowledging the benefit side for folks with pigment (and doubling down on the punishment side, but that's a different discussion).
I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of this article is taken from Metz's proposed article (if it turns out that that never gets published).

Likely suicide.

I had a recent covid-insanity-related thought on the topic of suicide.

For the non-religious, suicide is going to sleep forever instead of just for the night.

What if there was an option to go to sleep for a decade? Would people want that? Would it be even legal to research?

Seems like it would have applications for space travel.

I wonder what the moral implications would be... (and Judge Dredd would have predicted this).
> Second, the military is one of the few aspects of government that’s clearly supposed to be done at a federal level.

According to the 18th-century conception, the army indeed becomes a federal concern in wartime, but on an everyday peacetime basis, the training of soldiers was supposed to be done within militias regulated by the states.
It is an important concept of federalism to have that separation of authority between State and Federal. Besides given the federal government's track record of transparency do you really think if they had authority over local PDs they'd make all of that data available and open?

Update: Just to make clear I don't disagree that more data is good and that we should work to make all crime and police data available, but I don't think the FBI should be able to have absolute authority over local PDs.
Isn't the image weird? 600 people in the search party, split across many directions and only 3 of them have rescue dogs. Given the importance of the event, and the effectiveness of rescue dogs (actually a dog found the mayor), one would have to assume that it's a typo.

Even a 30-man search and rescue party would generally have more than 3 dogs.

Dear God, the number of people who think any kind of insult constitutes an ad hominem would be hilarious if it wasn't so depressing.

Ad hominem means you're replacing a reasoning based argument with character attacks. Throwing in character attacks on top of a reasoning based argument -- especially when the insults are just used as a conclusion -- is not what an ad hominem is.

This is important, because the fact that this is what an ad hominem is, is why it's considered a logical fallacy. "Your argument is dumb because of X & Y, and also I think you suck" is not a logical fallacy. There is no fallacious thinking there.

"I think you suck, therefore I don't even have to bother refuting X & Y, they're automatically wrong because of how much you suck" clearly is a logical fallacy: just because someone sucks, doesn't mean any possible reasoning of theirs is automatically invalid.
I completely agree with this. Our national debate would be so much better if we had better data. Of course, some people aren't going to be persuaded by data and will probably try to condemn/intimidate/impugn-the-motives-of etc anyone who tries to talk about the data, but it would at least help good-faith people have a more productive debate.
The same universities that were affected by the scandal regularly give admissions for donors’ kin. It’s just that the money went to a third party instead of the college in the scandalous cases. Free market - not arguing the morality of it - allows for the person with the resources to get an edge on various things - from life saving medical treatment to life changing opportunities.
The entire city of Tulsa is there - literally millions of non-native Americans live in this area.

Correct pandemic predictions or no, I still don't get why the media was interested in this blog in the first place.
I have always enjoyed SSC because it reminded me of old (better?) internet. The conversations were intellectually stimulating (much like here), it wasn't on a soc-med platform and as the article mentioned, they are for the most part commited to civil discourse. Its imho everything you would want especially in this age of Stshows like fb and twatter.
This is worth emphasizing. All these folks "worried" about our democracy because of the spread of disinfo on facebook should consider that this was a relatively small tight-knit community that had low risk of spreading outside. Yet the media still showed interest. This is getting ranty, I guess I'm just mad at the things we have to deal with.
How does this discomfit the police in any way? When they go to add to their fleet and Ford says no thanks, they just buy another brand. Ford doesn't offer features or prices such that this would be a problem.

And meanwhile, what does this do to Ford sales outside of law enforcement, as in the red states ... where all of those pickup trucks are sold, and where police are far more popular?

So if they get what they ask they get a smaller more fragile employer with a decreasing workforce and fewer funds for raises, in return for a symbolic gesture.
Why Don't Musk's Starlink and Bezos' Project Kuiper Join Forces
To add to that, one will very quickly find that RAID5 really isn't a good idea for big drives if one reads around.

The reason being that for larger drives, resilvering can take so long that secondary failures become probable or—in bad cases—even virtually guaranteed (This is the same probably the WD SMR drives had, but it exists even on normal drives if they get big enough).

For this reason, for modern large drives, most people recommend at least RAID6 (known as RAID-Z2 on ZFS), which means you have two drives worth of parity as compared to RAID5's single one.

Of course, this means that you need at least four drives for it to be worthwhile, and most people realistically end up going for around six disks, otherwise you are spending a lot of your total cost on parity.
I stand corrected yet while the legal implications are interesting and important the point still is that Android should totally switch to openjdk, end of story.
Let me try to restate.

As I understand it, you're saying that people are advocating for the free expression of ideas - and yet, when people use that freedom to insult them call for their termination, they get mad. This seems contradictory and unfair to you. If I want the right to say whatever I want, then I have to accept that some people will choose to use that right to say things like "enoch_r is a despicable human being and his employer, family, and friends should all know about it immediately." Is that an accurate summary of your views?

In response, I am saying that norms like we have on HN (such as the principle of charity) contribute to the free expression of ideas. If we didn't have those norms, people wouldn't feel free to investigate controversial ideas, or have discussions like this one, and the intellectual climate would be impoverished.

Similar norms contribute to the free exchange of ideas in academia.

The letter advocates for such norms to be defended in academia.

I think, like most philosophies, "rationality" is a framework that works introspectively and not useful for applying to other people.

As soon as an argument becomes "you're not sticking to the of X" it's become fruitless.
Project Zero has uncovered 2033 issues... The majority of those could be used alone to ruin your life. The rest might require 2 (Eg. one for the sandbox, one for the kernel).

Thats a team of ~10 security researchers over many years...

Considering how many are being discovered each day/month/year, chances are that there are at least hundreds undiscovered...

If it only takes one to ruin your life, and a good security researcher can find one in a few weeks, or months at most, the barrier to someone evil is really really low...

This reads more like a sermon than a technical article.
Some semi-related reasons I can think of

1. If people knew what it actually cost to get food delivered (as opposed to hiding the delivery fee by increasing per item costs or charging the restaurant a cut), they wouldn't order

2. Part of their business model is to waive delivery fees, like if you buy the subscription for unlimited delivery. However even if you have unlimited delivery they still make money from service fees and restaurant commissions. If all of that cost gets charged as a "delivery fee", the $20 subscription for unlimited free delivery becomes unsustainable.

3. As others have mentioned, they're probably doing it in part just to make a point
Your comment has absolutely nothing to do with this article.
My bad, *a database.

I'm pretty sure I saw in an AMA that Reddit has an Accounts database (maybe split further by sharding) which I'd assume holds your settings as well.

But I rescind my point; it could very well be attributed to database infrastructure issues, whether that's hitting a shard with stale data, or splitting account settings to its own DB that it can't access when you log in.
Yep I’m sure that their universities have no concept of letting in children of a major donor or political figure with influence.

First off, very cool idea. I'm a fintech PM and had the idea to build something similar. Glad to see someone doing it!

From my research, it sounds like, because prize linked savings accounts are so new in the US, it's unclear whether requiring someone to have an account would count as consideration. By offering an AMOE are you taking a conservative position on this until it's more clear? Or, has a judge/court ruled on this?

I was involved in a sweepstakes at a bank a couple years ago and we took a similar route as you, offering a mail in AMOE, requiring handwritten entries. Without any marketing, we received several thousand entries, mostly from people who mail in entries to every sweepstakes they find.

As someone who has conducted a lot of interviews and read even more resumes, there is no single good answer here.

Some of my peers would pour over resumes for hours. Others would look for specific items (a technology, a company, a school). Others would almost completely ignore the resume. Some companies I've worked at would have HR pre-vet resumes, getting rid of ones that didn't have some magical combination of keywords.

Sadly your resume is going to have to survive encounters will all of these people.

I will list one personal pet peeve: do not put anything on your resume that you cannot have an intelligent five-minute conversation about. "That was a long time ago, I kind of forget the details" doesn't cut it--if you forgot the details, it doesn't feel like it's part of your current skillset and thus doesn't belong on the resume.
It‘s pretty darn smart. A lot of people I know play the lottery instead of putting a couple of bucks to the side. Seems like a win-win

This seems like an invitation for Congress to pass a law taking the land back officially.

...though probably not until after the election.
I had a different feeling. It wasn't empty in the sense that the desert is, which is very pleasant and beautiful, but scarred with industrialized agriculture, and silos stretching out into the infinite surrounding. The fact that there was absolutely nothing at all as far as the eye can see, no mountain or woods, just field upon industrial field with no farm house or town in sight, felt extremely isolating and uncomfortable. A feeling of having no bearings, no difference in any direction; no idea where to run.

The small towns felt disturbing. Tulsa felt disturbing. The lack of minorities out in public was painfully glaring. It was all so very patriotic and dystopian. The unsettling overbearing flatness on the featureless terrain dominated my perspective of the area. Not for me, and I couldn't leave soon enough.
Emacs is built on Unix like vi and everything else. The fact that vi has a less elegant language doesn't affect me, because I don't see much value in adding extensions to the editor. What I need is a sane user interface, which vim provides.

You complain about being downvoted, but your entire post is just calling the post "obviously and overt nonsense" and claiming it is a lie, without making any attempt to explain why. Not exactly a helpful post.
A very reasonable point and, certainly, the direction that parts of the computational community have embraced over the years. I will use integration as an example: classic computational methods were focused on trying to make strong assumptions about the integrand and significantly reduce the number of integrand evaluations (Gauss quadrature is the main thing that comes to mind). As computation became more accessible/parallelizable, and problems became less analytic, Monte Carlo methods have become more fundamental.

In some distributed computational settings, memory traffic is actually the main bottleneck and redundant computations are executed to reduce the need to send data (a similar situation to the one you aptly describe).

I think that, in the case of hyperparameter/meta-learning optimization (or search, depending on how you think about it) we are at a time right now where the complexity of models which can effectively be put into production is a function of our ability to, at least partially, analyze the space of possible modeling decisions. Will we escape that, and have models whose training cost is less significant than the cost of executing an "intelligent" hyperparameter search process? Maybe ... I am a GP person so I see potential in clever analysis of circumstances so that RKHS methods (for instance) can be leveraged and simplify the training process. But the current trajectory of the community has been to work on increasingly expensive models, which makes the ability to effectively use them with limited tuning/search cost still relevant.
