What are you asking for?

I think it would be more effective to ask about a specific topic.
I'd guess the limits of information theory have been just about reached. The only real improvement I can think of would be either the ability to scan and resolve smaller individual squares (and that is dependent on how much the printer ink bleeds), or printing in color.

It would be cool to update optar, and make it a little more flexible. It would be fun to make a python package that can output arbitrary data as a printable image.
In my experience, 99% of the relationships I fetch fit the basic one-to-one, one-to-many, many-to-many definitions that pretty much all ORMs support. For these cases, the queries are generally more than efficient enough and there's little reason to reinvent the wheel and implement the code for fetching those relationships yourself.

For anything more complex, I agree. But for the common case of fetching simple and often (depending on your project) nested relations, I definitely enjoy the abstraction provided by ORMs.
Except that cloud-ified V100s are significantly less powerful than if you have direct access to the hardware. Last time I checked, in AWS they're actually external devices mapped in over GBit ethernet, which is significantly slower than the 8GB/s that PCIe x4 has.
those fools making reactors with drains in them. So many cooling accidents could have been avoided!
The alternative, an economy where borrowing is hard, would be even worse. Such a system would basically amount to feudalism, where the wealthy perpetually own everything and everyone else needs the support of some wealthy lord to proceed with a project.

Moreover, an economy slowing down is a bad thing even if you ignore debt. A small but noticeable example in the USA this year are the COVID-induced supply chain disruptions. An economy that slows down is an economy that will delivery fewer goods and services, and in the extreme it means not finding the things you need when you go to the store (it is hard to forget the empty shelves in supermarkets earlier this year). Nobody should delude themselves into thinking that debt is the reason we cannot afford to pause the economy for an extended period of time.
1-pipe steam has to have vents at the radiator which do let a small amount of water vapor into the room (despite being mostly closed loop). 2-pipe steam does not have this limitation.
It's the 'than anywhere else' part that I have an issue with. If that's the way you see it, you're doing this at the explicit detriment of everyone outside your country.

There's ways to grow that 'intelligence pool' locally, without having to see the rest of the world as just a pool of immigration candidates. Not to mention, just because someone travels to the US doesn't mean they want to actually immigrate there...
I don't agree with the characterization of "passive, ignorant sheep", but otherwise I'll bite that bullet. My attitude towards the US government is very similar to my attitude towards McDonalds Corporation; I learn a bit about their operations because I'm curious about large and powerful organizations, but I don't feel much obligation to keep my knowledge up to date.
my account on twitter is simply my sirname. however, i unfortunately share it w/ some random politician in another country. i get at least one notification a day from someone trying to tag them and harass/troll them. the most annoying thing is when they are replying directly to a tweet from the politicians account but still manage to tag me instead of them.
This is just... wrong? We want smart people here in the US. We should poach them and entice them to come here by all reasonable measures.

Plus, people aren't having kids like they used to. So you need to replace population somehow. See also: Japan.
Just get a projector and let him present via webcast. Not sure I'd want to risk coming to the US if the authorities might detain me for something I did as a teenager. (not saying this individual did that, but example.)
> The headline is odd, this has been going on for 870 days, as documented on his site. It looks like the last update is from 2019. The headline reads like he cant come in for the next 870 days.

Maybe adding "for the last 870 days" would clarify it a bit.
This is exactly it. 1.5% of users does not equal to 1.5% of CI/CD minutes. And such messaging isn't always dishonest. If you have 99 users using 100 minutes each and 1 user using 10 million minutes, setting the max limit to say 1000 is a net benefit for the system and its users, at the expense of the one outlier.
Not necessarily. There is liquidation preference for the preferred shares.
Or that he's taking a principled stand.
This looks great, I was just thinking yesterday that we need something Greplin (YC10) these days
A while back I liked the idea of visiting the US, buying a motorbike and travelling around a bit.

But since Trump I really feel on balance that I'd much rather go to many other places in the world instead.

Maybe not China/Russia though...
Sure, and Photoshop doesn’t allow you to scan money, for instance. It’s still possible to counterfeit, just a bit harder.

We can choose to embrace this change or take measures to make it less trivial.
I remember reading the story by the domain owner how nissan tried to screw him with law suit. This is pretty old case and I wonder why it popped up to the top: https://www.digest.com/Big_Story.php
The kind of hunt that humans are believed to have practiced early on was persistence hunting, which consists of chasing prey over long distances until they are exhausted (the gazelle can outrun any human on a scale of minutes, but not on a scale of hours).

If that is the case then the body type would have been low mass overall, like marathoners.

As for best body type for quality of life today (at least from a health perspective), that seems relatively aligned.
Or simply ignore everything that isn't local?

The problem seems to be more centralisation of power and decision making. Consume information to act rather than sit and tweet.
Usually I see δαίμων latinized as "demon" not "daemon". You got me looking and I found an interesting discussion on these words over on stack exchange [1]. TL;DR, "daemon" sometimes means "demon", but without the negative connotations, other times it is just an alternative spelling.

I would consider that to be editorial bias.

Lying would be indicating something that was not true.

I don't doubt that the former can be just as bad or worse than the later over the long haul, which is why, by the way, I don't watch cable news.
#4 is huge, especially if you're running the Discord to promote something else like a Twitch channel or a game.

Is it worth the cost? Probably not. But I'd put it above larger uploads in terms of importance, and my discords hit the upload limit pretty often.
I think it's a principled stance. I think Nissan made an aggressive move to take it over in early days and it pissed him off.
Documentation and idea framing is too snowflaked.

This a JWT based port knocking over https framework that would be useful when used in a much broader sense.

Framing it as proactive fail2ban is technically correct, it also masks the other and more powerful use-cases.

I could see this in use as a vpn bypass for a prosumer production system, where normal operational commands go over a secured vpn but in a pinch, you can disable that restriction for direct control during a partial failure.
I’m amazed that Nissan Motors didn’t eventually get the domain. Normally with sufficient $$$, you can bleed a smaller opponent dry in court.

My company had something similar happen to us. We were taken to the Federal Court of Australia by a Florida based educational hardware company in part over a domain.

The Australian domain we had, was purchased prior to their registration of Australian trademarks and incorporation of their company.
The way I read it, they actually need the randomness introduced from full Monte-Carlo sampling to make sure that they explore the data distribution sufficiently far in every direction. So it might be that for this approach, importance sampling would distort the results and re-introduce problems like the chance for divergence that GANs are fighting with.
maybe minus the cultural part.. in most of the USA, every social act is monetized by someone, meaning (among other things) that real cultural contributions must get sold (since you personally have bills for waking up each day) or else they are moved to the backseat in the public eye by something else that is similar and is being monetized.

As a US citizen I personally think this was not a bad thing at first (minority culture cannot be dis-allowed) but over time, there are 100x more disposable cheap plastic things than any genuine cultural expression in public.

> FEBRUARY - 2008, Ruling on Attorneys' Fees and Final Judgment.
The court has issued a Ruling[1] addressing these remaining issues:

1. Nissan Motor is NOT entitled to attorneys' fees.

2. Nissan Computer is entitled to cost under rule 68.

The court ordered NMC to pay $58,000 as cost under rule 68, this is less than 2% of what the cost was to defend this case.

> It's getting to the point where one must ask why someone wealthy enough to fly internationally would want the hassle of entering the US.

Sometimes it's the only sensible option - e.g. as far as I know (the Kiwis I know all go via LAX), London to Auckland via LAX is cheaper, quicker, easier, etc. than going a non-US route like Singapore.
Step 1: assume every service listening on your network has an auth exploit that has not been found.

Step 2: deploy this.

Step 3: ...

Step 4: profit!

The line between something like this and a locking the service behind a VPN is very narrow. They both achieve the same thing, protect high risk/value targets by not even allowing unauthorized people to talk to them at the network level.
Azure would compliment my previous work with MS technologies. I think AWS is more popular though so might be more amenable to a lateral move. But I'm sure Azure has their own path as well?
Ask HN: What are some programming related topics that can be solved using NLP?
I've been working on the Punctuation Restoration Problem for my Master's Thesis, however, me being primarily a programmer at heart, I wish I could use some of my NLP skills to solve issues related to programming in general.

I know Microsoft does lots of research in NLP and I think after they acquired Github, they have an immense dataset to work with for any problems they want to tackle. Most recently I think they did a great job on their new python suggestion extension on VSCode.

So, could you suggest to me some issues you think are interesting research topics? This is something that I would like to work with, but I have no idea where to start yet.
I wake up at 3 am consistently and can not go back to bed.
How can Ceasefire be self-supporting?
But it's a misunderstanding. I see things like this space drive as different, because they're supposed to be based on physics that hasn't been figured out.

Real revolutionary and amazing technology comes from physics that came way before, which in turn came from math that was even older.

Today people mostly can't imagine what the world was like, technologically and socially, a hundred years ago when relativity and quantum mechanics were on the cusp of being developed.

The things which will transform or devastate the world in the next few decades have been growing for the last 50 years even if most haven't noticed. It will look like coming out of nowhere, but it won't be in the way that this space drive is.

Yes, everything you just said is in violent agreement with what I said, although I suspect that was not your intention.

The infamous LASD gang were largely hispanic, for what it’s worth.

This meme that cops are secretly white supremacists is completely absurd, and it seems as though everyone perpetuating it did not actually read the reports they reference, because they absolutely do not say that, and honestly it’s a pretty disgusting allegation to cast so broadly. If you’re going to defame a whole group, be damn sure that you’re accurate. And maybe don’t list off examples that consist of white-minority departments with non-white police chiefs and non-white mayors...
FB is selling ads on their own properties though, no? They are not setting the prices the like for other publishers. OF course there is a case of antitrust for them , for essentially buying out the potential competition.
I'd like to believe a lot of job descriptions end up copying each others formats, so how could we differentiate between those that are copying toxic jobs' descriptions and those that actually are toxic jobs?

Uzi Nissan just died of COVID19. It will be interesting to see if his relatives stick to his principals, and hold onto the web site in memory of him, or make millions and sell to Nissan.

I hope they hold on.

I predict someone will eventually sell, though. Principled people are few and far between.

On the claim these companies don’t pay US taxes, you should look at their SEC filings.

Here [1], for example, is one for Apple, showing them paying an income tax rate north of 20%, for tens of billions of dollars. Then they pay payroll taxes, property taxes, import taxes, sales taxes, for many more billions.

All the companies you claim aren’t paying taxes are.

So we can just put it all in your house and you'll be cool with that? After all, there are more dangerous things out there, and we won't be putting any of those in your house, so that makes it okay right?
But the fear has been stoked. No one will see the retraction.
Not sure exactly what happened but I did personally interview the first hundred employees so that means I probably interviewed him or her and would have done so regardless of how the other interviewers felt about the candidate. My interview feedback was treated like the rest and I rarely if ever vetoed a hire if everyone else was unanimously in support.

And you are right, I did hire people regardless of their answers to some questions and I would then assess how they turned out to figure out if my questions were any good. I basically gave everyone I interviewed a pass on at least one question even if they bombed it abysmally. Some of those folks turned out to be our best employees so I learned to never hold one bad answer against someone. It also gave me a dataset to improve my questions for the next wave of candidates.
Love this, just wish I could run it locally offline :(
Actually, going to the office on a July morning in NYC feels very much like you're in e.g. Hong Kong; if you cross e.g. the Brooklyn bridge, you also see the typical haze of very high humidity over the water. Sometimes it's an actual fog at, say, 80-85F around.

At least it's picturesque at times.
If you know Daniel, you know that this is one of the stupidest things the US government could possibly do regarding immigration. Daniel is literally one of the most brilliant computer programmers alive today. He created cURL:

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

A program so ubiquitous that it comes preinstalled on every mainstream OS, even Windows.

It has bindings for Rust, D, PHP and God knows how many other languages. It would be the equivalent of blocking a Senator, or say, Fleetwood Mac.

I guess people just don't give a shit about programmers.
One trick changed my life:

Get two large tupperware containers. One that fits the litter box. Other for food and water. Cut a hole in them, cat sized, about two inches above the bottom so there’s a lip. I found a jigsaw worked best.

You can then stack these and move them freely and put stuff on them. But they do a glorious job containing litter and food that wants to follow the cats out.

> Then again, it might be just because he's a "hacker".

Given the number of non-US people successfully traveling to BlackHat and other explicitly "hacking" conferences... This is not the most likely explanation.
If you wrote a blog post about how to streamline this, I would read it and upvote it.
The problem I see with this trial is that it’s open-label, small n, and has subjective endpoints (ICU admission as the primary outcome). The study is underpowered to detect mortality. Given the open-label nature of the trial, the subjective outcome with the small n makes this result less strong.

Why is this the case? Well, for this trial the physicians treating patients knew who got the Vitamin D and who didn’t, and thus they may have been more likely to admit those who didn’t to the ICU (subjective). Something like mortality is not as subjective, but there are too few study participants to detect a mortality signal in this trial.

If I had been conducting this small open label trial I would have picked some less subjective outcomes, like maybe P/F Ratio.

Are you suggesting that revenues fell after bailing on SMB. That is hard to imagine, but I guess possible. Given that the core of the industry is about asking counterfactual questions, I would think the appropriate question would be 'would they be more valuable now if they had not gone to the enterprise - would they even have the deal they did wind up getting?'rather than are they more valuable now then they were 4 years ago.
Hard to know, but my guess is that they wouldn't. A simple web editor with a random number generator isn't going to be of interest to anyone looking to buy.
The larger problem is that statistical inference is hard - it just is. And, unlike analytics, where you are just placing sensors into an existing system, here you need to also place actuators, so implementation is much more complicated. That means that at any scale, both the marketing team, and the dev/IT teams need to be involved for anyone to get value and not wind up breaking systems all the time.
Software like theirs, and ours, isn't magic, and without good editorial and hard work by the client, the entire exercise is more statistical theater than science. And that material fact was always in conflict with the rhetoric that they make AB Testing easy for everyone. It lends itself to a particular type of solutionism that VCs and the larger industry are prone to be seduced by.
Self service to SMB clients might be a profitable biz, but perhaps not enough to service such a large amount of venture funding.
FWIW VWO also tries compete at the enterprise.
I don’t think you need a visa to travel through the international terminal in America, do you?
No. The "real solution" is to oppose anti-semitism with all due expediency.

> President Carter Banned reprocessing of Uranium in 1977, and nobody has changed it

Are you sure? Wiki says:

"On 7 April 1977, President Jimmy Carter banned the reprocessing of commercial reactor spent nuclear fuel. The key issue driving this policy was the risk of nuclear weapons proliferation [...] President Reagan lifted the ban in 1981, but did not provide the substantial subsidy that would have been necessary to start up commercial reprocessing." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_reprocessing#History
The funny thing is that if he had gone work as a temporary worker in Canada, two years would have given him permanent resident status. Then two more years he can become a citizen, then he would be free to enter USA. This would be faster and better solution overall. But anyways, I don't think it is ever worth the trouble going there.
>Aerosols and liquids have vastly different storage requirements

So whip the aerosol into some epoxy and when it cures throw it in the cask with the rest of the stuff.

If you just want to make something that's not solid and reactive into something solid and non-reactive modern chemical science has nearly infinite options.
It's possible to do both. At Twilio we started as a self-service, developer-focused company. Today we have many large enterprise customers (and spend a lot of effort to court those kinds of customers), but we still have a huge number of small developers, and one-person hobby shops can and do still easily set themselves up to use our platform. We have added some enterprise-only features, which I sometimes have mixed feelings about, but everything that's traditionally been available to non-enterprises is still available to anyone with a credit card.

I completely agree with you on (at least in terms of Twilio's experience):

> would Optimizely be doing much better if they hadn't pivoted into enterprise hell? Or would they be a much smaller company?

We were definitely going to hit a ceiling if we didn't add enterprise features and work on getting all the various certifications that large companies will require to even start talking to you, and build a sales force that knew how to sell to larger companies. If we hadn't done all that, we'd be a much smaller company today, and likely a competitor would have done it instead and eaten our lunch.
> the designers imagined many of the events you mentioned and more

Designers are awesome. Sadly they were also unable to find some time in 50 years to raise a wall a few m so it can stand a Tsunami. It seems that the extra scrutiny, was not so extra in the real life when the company will need to allocate real money.
Huh? Something like 60% goes to website - it's in the agreement.

If they are going to try and prove google charged $100 and paid $1 - good luck. Google makes enough money just on their 40%, and can change that % any time. Google could just set their rate to 50% if they wanted if they'd still be competitive.

If the DOJ is relying on this type of argument, that google is secretly scamming folks, they are probably toast I think.
