Shoot! My mental picture of a cascade was completely different from what the author of the thesis referenced above had in mind.
I told a person who was collecting signatures to get a proposition on Nov's ballot, almost word for word your italics.

Their response was "I get paid per signature, will you sign it so I can make more money?"

My response, "That's an even worse reason, are you telling me someone buying this prop its way into the ballot?" He left at this point.
It is dangerous that political differences are now being moralized. You vote for Biden? You're evil and should be fired. You vote for Trump? You're a Nazi and should be fired. Then what? What's the next step? I used to read about the French Revolution in horror. Parisans cheered when a Guillotine dropped, for they thought it was the righteous thing to do. And the history repeated itself in China 55 years ago and then 35 years ago, all in the name of upholding superior morality.

Are we going to repeat the history in the US?
One problem they solve quite well is being able to show ads while making it hard for end users to block them.
I would be very interested to hear more about these claims if you can share a link.
I wonder how 100K of engineers made it in
Well, I consider that for at least one of the candidates, donating to him is not abhorrent enough to meet my bar for "this political speech should be censored". I'd have trouble taking seriously anyone who thought that both candidates were abhorrent enough to favour firing their supporters on ideological grounds. Allowing businesses to fire people who don't agree with them is much more acceptable to me than that.
You mean, it's not the 25% discount lane to you?
Would love to read any research that backs that number. (I'm not saying you're not right, I just like reading research papers).
For those who aren't aware, the reason for this is well-known: the average POC statistically leans right on all social issues except for race.

If my time's worth $50 an hour, it'd have to be a damn good free lunch or a damn short commute for the free-lunch-for-unpaid-commute trade to be a good deal.

Same for me, although I've been remote for years. Nothing kept my sleep schedule on track like needing to be at the office by 9 a.m. almost every weekday.

Also, remote teams seem more likely to span multiple timezones. That doesn't help the ole' bedtime either.
I’m a little frustrated that ordinary people making a risk/reward calculation in the absence of complete information are being described as in a state of “fear”.
My guess is that switch simply doesn't support 144Hz, so if it works at 60Hz then you have your answer.
He said that for sure? That Mexican immigrants are rapists? Or that some of them are rapists?
This reads a lot like "My very-conservative positions are centrist."

I don't think you'd find very many people willing to agree those positions are centrist.

Which is fine. Your positions are your positions, and obviously you hold them because you think them to be reasonable. But "centrist?" I don't think so.

It is using the existing carve out for library book lending in the physical world, and applying it to the digital world.

So if the book is old enough to not be covered by copyright, they can distribute as many copies as the want. Otherwise, in order to use the library carve-out, they need to limit it to the number of physical copies taken out of circulation in actual libraries.
It's early, but lifestyle companies are <10% of our applicants. Mostly clustered around series A/post seed.
Discouraging people from working is a feature, not a bug.

The number one thing you can do to make free markets work better is reduce transaction costs. Generous unemployment benefits make it easier to hold out for the right job. In fact, we should start giving them to people who leave a job for any reason, not just the "good" ones.

Making people desperate is not just a human cost, but an assault on the proper workings of a market economy. Funneling people to suboptimal jobs is something that has to be resolved anyway, eventually. So it's not a gain for society.
They need to solve shipping. Partner with Uber (or hey, Waymo) to pick up and drop off packages from shops to consumers.

An alternate model would be to make search good enough let consumers find stores within a radius of their current location selling X, and price compare them. E.g. I need a widget - stores a, b and c are selling it. Store a is $14.99 and 5 miles away, store b is $8.99 and 15 miles away, store c is $11.99 and 20 miles away.
A centrist appreciates balance and pragmatism, also realizes no-compromise extremists are part of the problem.
But that assumes that the feed is the primary value of FB. For me the value is in the social graph. I don't even follow the posts of people.
As a company they do, and that's how policy is set.

But individual actors are individual actors, in a company of 100 000 people, some will go astray.

They are pushing their 'white label' stuff agressively, I have no doubt the PM's have zero qualms about using Amazon.com sales data to their advantage.

But I also submit that retail PM's actually getting access to private S3/EC2 is totally rubbish, at least by any policy or scale.

They could be sued for billions in each case of that breach, and the resulting PR fallout would be impossible.

Imagine you are the VP of AWS - you make all the profit for Amazon.

Are you going to somehow allow some dirty Retail PM access to your customers data?

When your customer finds out, and tells the world, and it gets in the press, what happens?

If your ABC startup had evidence that Amazon was creeping on your data as policy, you'd have to dump them instantly.

They could say goodbye to every government contract.

If you are Bezos - would you risk the entire Brand and the cash-cow to move some low-margin pair of shoes and USB hub?

So no, I think the firewall between AWS and Retail is systematically legit.
Yeah, seems like a cultish thing to say.
True. OTOH, and not to invalidate anyone's experiences, but people shouldering such responsibilities typically have help already (either paid or other family). Otherwise they couldn't do their current job. They also, presumably, have plans/protocols for when they need to take a vacation or break. Unless they were otherwise spending all their free time on caregiving, which isn't sustainable or healthy. They could potentially use those same measures when it's offsite time and even be given some makeup time off later.

They could also get an exception and attend the working sessions remotely. But there's a chance that could lead to fewer opportunities for advancement for them, because they weren't there. Which sucks. It's not an ideal situation.

BTW, lots of enterprise sales companies already do annual "sales kickoff" events where they fly all their salespeople globally to a single place. It's not unprecedented.
Sure, reductive is fair. In response:

a. ruby and especially python (and PHP for that matter) are top 15 languages with very wide adoption, following, name recognition, use cases. Great documentation, lots of books, conferences, blogs. Robust business and consulting ecosystem. etc. Lots of onramps and growth curves for individuals. And communities still growing steadily. Clojure is substantially younger (10 years vs 30 for py, 25 for php and ruby) but it is comparatively tiny and niche and arguably its rate of growth is lower

b. syntax is part of the story here. Clojure is a better language than kotlin, but kotlin is seeing explosive general purpose use case growth that Clojure can only dream about. Clojure syntax is niche.

c. there are a very large number of technologies, including languages, that have wide usage within finance and banking and zero use outside. No matter how neat k is, there is no market for tutorials, no community growth (well, maybe modulo data sci world). No one is ever going to use jbase rather than postgres. Many of these also have niche syntax.

d. I think the Nubank news on balance is terrific, but I don't think it helps Clojure's community growth story at all, which is a chicken/egg problem in the context of general purpose use outside of finance. Nubank committing to that outcome...seems doubtful to me, compared to Nubank wanting to have more control over what it considers to be its strategic differentiator.

This last could well be wrong, and what we'll get from Nubank-owned Cognitect is developer experience, onboarding, a completed Spec, a comprehensible REPL-based developer onboarding, error messages, documentation- all the UX things where Clojure's superior design ergonomics are undone by nits in the experience.

My understanding is that Nubank is concerned about these things for its internal people, that their hiring rate has forced them to solve for onboarding. We will see. The Clojure team itself likes the sharp tools for experts model. There would need to be a funded change in that emphasis for the acceptability of Clojure solutions in areas where it wasn't already known to grow.
The DHS secretary spokesperson with the entire Portland brouhaha is named Chad Wolf. If that wasn't a meme name I don't know what is.
Again, your argument is that it's popular, so it must be good. Illicit drugs are also popular -- but how many people have died from overdose?
Have you tried Inconsolata? I like Jetbrains Mono a lot too, but somehow still stick to Inconsolata, even after trying so many others so many times.
Kind of curious what this weapon is, said "projectile" so I guess it's not a laser, I was thinking of those "Gods rods" but that's for targeting the ground
> Have you ever lived in a one party country?

The USA is a one party country -- it's just very good at marketing it as two parties. They never actually solve the problems they claim to care about -- they just keep using the same wedge issues for successive elections.

Until we actually have competition from other parties, the two party oligopoly (enforced by entrenched interests at the state level) makes our political system as useless as a one party political system.

Whenever I use an Arch laptop that I haven't touched in a while and need to do an update on it, there will be update conflicts that need to be resolved manually. I'm pretty sure this happened every time. There are tons of posts on the forum about update conflicts.
disclaimer: I know almost nothing about telescopes.

Isn't there a way of multiplexing lots of small telescopes together to gather more photons and effectively emulate a larger telescope in software?

If so, could you launch 1000 small telescopes into space and effectively have a (set of <1000) larger telescope(s)?
People are giant transmission vectors. We're not going to be able to have "safe" return to work until we get tests that can be done in minutes, by self serve kiosks, and that cost less than the daily value produced by said workers.

That or a vaccine, and requirements to be vaccinated to work.
Well I'm on macOs Big Sur beta (just updated to the latest named 11 release).

Was planning on backing up and doing a clean install somehow in the future anyway, and have been thinking about using linux for a while for a less-bloated coding envirorment

So thanks for the tip, will check that out.
Not sure where you live but around here everyone I know is much more stressed, going out less and putting on weight. I can't wait for this to be over. https://twitter.com/hashtag/QuarantineFifteen?src=hashtag_cl...
I appreciate this, I thought I was following the rules but it's possible I am not. I messed up with not having at least some kind of free tier, though I did add a email sign up to send to people when I do build it. Thanks for the heads up!
OP said he's working at 20% capacity for one because the tools and documentation are bad. If fixing those problems increases the team productivity by some non-trivial amount it's a positive data point for a promotion.

At my current co, promotions and job levels are measured by increasing impact at an individual level, within a team, across teams, across orgs, etc. Cutting waste is everyone's job.

I think grep is a compelling example of when it makes sense to do the extra work here. But I'm more dubious of the idea that carefully optimising yes was a good use of engineering time.

Having seen the level of political indoctrination of some Googlers, who believe that everyone who is not colored is living in a permanent state of sin, yes, I would not want to join that Scientology knockoff.

Notably none of these gives away 90% of their salary to ease their "guilt".

If I were that incompetent at my day job, I imagine quite a few people would be "messing" with me, possibly for the sheer amusement of it.
If your test has a 5% false positive rate, which is considered normal, then you'll be misdiagnosed as sick on average once per month. That seems not too helpful.
Yeah, given the resources, I'd want to pursue all the possibilities in a promising product/market in parallel. They may have even had working prototypes for some time or even be near launch and they are just feeling out whether the startup would be competitive and/or complementary. Doubt it's anything evil. Just sounds like business minded people at work.
Yes, and I was arguing against that idea. The other countries didn't suddenly stop fishing in the area. And FWIW all of them are about equally "native" to the region, as in, people from all the surrounding coasts have been fishing there for centuries. Just the scale is new.
This is religious dogma and I support your right to believe it!
> but the "climate" would be correlation, instead of causation.

Two I've heard in the modern era are asthma and allergies. I'm not sure if it helps with asthma but different climates definitely affect allergies, particular the prevalence of more evergreen trees in warmer climates means there's a reduced/missing allergy season.
As a centrist I'm not completely apathetic to all politics and I have some strongly held viewpoints, even if they are moderate. So I'm not sure why you're tired of centrists. Centrists understand there's nuance in everything, and leaning too heavily in either direction can be unhealthy.

I will say I also don't care for the daily discourse and politicization of everything.
I think perhaps you misunderstand the architecture of KMS. KMS master keys are used to remotely decrypt the symmetric encryption keys for encrypted data that are stored alongside the encrypted data. KMS master keys don't ever leave the KMS servers themselves, and servers can't be accessed directly by anyone. AFAIK they don't have open ports except for handling production traffic and are hardened against opening a shell. An engineer on a different team with access to a host running a customer workload could potentially run off with a temporary customer credential being used by the customer workload, which they could then use to call KMS to decrypt encryption tokens for as long as the credential lasted. But they couldn't get at the KMS key itself or retain access past the expiration of the stolen credential, and all of the aforementioned audit logs would report all of the activity of the stolen credential.
Most servers have built-in IPMI.
For those that don't know, you can set a setting in your profile "showdead" that will show you the views that got "flagged" as not to be on hackernews. This is an inherently political thread and you probably want to know what people beyond the majority agree with. I mean in a literal sense it's quite funny that if you express a bad political opinion on HN you'll be hidden from view. That would seem counter-productive in inherently political discussions. I know HN doesn't want to get into politics, and maybe there's a discission to be had about priviledge there, but I think the first step would atleast to be seeing what people are actually saying.
Do we really believe a single X-37B is the only weapons-capable thing the US has in space?
Genuine question. Why is this the case? What would a RISC-V board enable you to do that you can't do with an ARM board today?
Yeah, I can see the argument that work at least in theory is a group of people who have (or had) similar interests. However work from home gives me so much more time flexibility that if I want to go to some meetup, I just would (Pre coronavirus).
Osmand has full offline navigational functionality for free and uses as well as contributes to the open street maps data set instead of a proprietary one. I've used it to save my bacon a few times when I tried to start navigation well away from cell coverage.
This is a huge question and I don't hear a lot of people asking it. What is the future for cities? How will this change suburbs? How can we create optimal communities?

I think it goes hand-in-hand with the coming loss of the car as a personal device and its transformation into "individual transit" as opposed to "mass transit". In the future, when you can use an app to get an autonomous vehicle to take you where you want to go, communities will restructure. Parking lots and garages will go away, opening up a huge amount of real estate.

I wouldn't mind starting a sort of "virtual salon" to talk about these larger questions. It's fascinating.
That doesn't sound very likely. People make up all sorts of stories about what moderators supposedly said or did. The tell is that they're invariably linkless. If they came with the relevant links, readers could see what actually happened and make up their own minds.
>We do know that in, for example, the US elections, some counties/states swung for Trump in 2016 by pretty narrow margins. Were those affected more by "but her emails", some sort of disinformation campaign, or the general unpopularity of Clinton? Maybe all of the above but it's a stretch to dismiss it all

That which is asserted without evidence can and must be dismissed without evidence.

"Drain the swamp" was the most effective political slogan for many decades. It's a real shame Trump was not better than Clinton's corruption and neither will Joe be. The corruption is the biggest threat to the USA for so many reasons.
I have some issues with the account commenting above being made at the same time as the submission, only commenting once, and being very specific in their questioning.

I'm all for growth hacks, but this isn't a good look.
I should add: fashion and most creative industries are extremely cheap and cost conscious. Making that shirt for $19.99 entails cutting every corner possible. Every little bit of fabric etc. optimised to save money.

Once they can start generated images 'for free' they will, and it may not even be the unit expense, it may be the operational expense.

Chicago Tribune now sends reporters out with iPhones instead of having staff photographers.

Our food supply is full of filler and garbage ingredients.

Fashion brands are constantly dying, where there is a way to lower costs, it will happen.
I struggle to think of major social programs that we've cut at all, much less "to the bone."

No. Modern IPMI is HTML5 based. Lightyears better than the old java/.net clients or this (awesome) hobby project.
Almost certainly. Toptal used to do it. I'm not sure if they still do.
I believe that old movie-rental-stores needed more of a license than just owning the movies in order to rent them out for money.
> You don't even need to contact trace if everyone gets tested every day

If you have a factory capable putting out 350M tests/day (let's not even get in to logistics or the next steps), please hang out your shingle.

If not, then perhaps considering plans within the realm of possibility is a better use of time.
I'm surprised your mind went to that. Maybe you've classified all conservatives as racist?
This obviously puts more wind in AMD's sails. That said, Intel's Datacenter growth is very impressive.

I have been an AMD investor since pre-Zen launch and I think it is fair to say that EPYC sales feel like they haven't reached the levels some have hoped for quite yet. If AMD continue to widen the gap between EPYC and Xeon, I suspect we may look back on this inertia as a bit of a 'roadrunner effect' and in a year or two's time get a shocking quarter where AMD suddenly starts taking surprisingly large bites out of Intel's datacenter market share.

Also on the GPU side of things, it is rumored that Nvidia has struggled to get capacity at TSMC and is having to use Samsung's, supposedly inferior, 8nm process for its forthcoming Ampere cards, at least until their 7nm capacity comes online at TSMC. Not sure how much truth there is to this, but highlights the capacity issues that may currently be in play.
I just need one person to. And again, money need not exchange hands.

Brilliant. I hope you don't mind if I quote you.
I don't see anything in IA's FAQ or elsewhere that they limited digital lending to physical copies. I read that they only lent ebooks they had physical possession /of/, but that there was no limit to how many such copies they lent out (i.e., they had one physical copy of Mark Twain, allowed an unlimited number of people to digitally borrow Mark Twain for up to two weeks).

If I'm mistaken, I'd appreciate a link that explains their approach.
No amount of contact-tracing can make believe that jobs that pay a pittance are worth risking one's life for.
Why is it an app?
Same way they take vacations. The parent working remote has more flexibility to take on childcare responsibilities the rest of the year, so they can probably work something out together.
This is the way. We've given multiple clients very similar stacks for "api layers" and it's by far the most cost effective way to do AWS from both productivity and opex point of view.
