I have no idea why finance isn't part of the core. Truly, it should be.

A financially literate person can make a good life out of an ordinary income. A financially illiterate person can bring catastrophe on themselves and others around them, in spite of an extraordinary income.

Financial illiteracy hurts individuals, families, and society in general.
>Now we are back at the ignorance claim! I've got a PhD in mobile security. I've been working in this space for more than a decade! I assure you I have done more than "hardly pausing".

That's technical knowledge though.

But there's another thing when it comes to ignorance or not, that's not tied to "how they work".

The understanding of their social/political/etc implications.

Someone who even designs smartphones is not necessarily savvy to the latter. If anything, his whole career gives them an incentive not to be ("it's difficult to make somebody understand something whose career depends on not understanding it").

>People claimed that bicycles would cause the destruction of society when they were introduced.

Well, they were not far off :-) Though that's more like a "people have been wrong about X in the past, so they can't be right about Y now".
Mongrel 2 used zeromq to proxy to workers. I don't know how popular that ever was in practice.
Nobody is advocating genocide here. This is completely obvious, it is not his intention... you are exaggerating the situation. Who in their right mind would do this? And if you read his post it's obvious he is not doing this.

The chinese actions are atrocious but an accusation of saying that holocaust level genocide is getting advocated here is a huge difference.

You can tell him he's wrong because you believe that the chinese are conducting genocide. You do not start a witch hunt by accusing him of advocating genocide which he obviously is not doing.
Not really a hope but just a theory. Nothingness is similar and for some people even better. I do find it amusing that people downvoted my earlier comment. People don't even have a grasp that their life isn't very special when something can simply just repeat it all again. It already happened, why not again, and when the maybe first iteration was possible?

Certainly nothing like this, and our practices in war have always stood out as more humane than the other side. People sometimes point to Afghanistan, but I don’t remember out guys beheading anyone.
I'm trying to avoid downplaying this, but the articles linked from your link suggest this is primarily the actions of a single doctor. It seems possible this is an opportunistic individual taking advantage of the migrants who don't speak the language. The practice is obviously abhorrent wherever it happens, but it's not an exact comparison.

many of you here in the comments misunderstand.

punk isn't nihilistic lamentation, it's nihilistic resistance. it's punk to fight. it's building anything from nothing, because there is nothing to lose. punk cultures appear within dystopia as an alternative, punk aesthetic is amateur and diy-accessible, and punk attitudes are critical and creative.

we have enough dystopic warnings. everyone knows where we're headed. alienation and addiction are here, at the beginning of the plot. now we have the conflict, the departure from weakness, and eventually a resolution. solarpunk aesthetically charts a clear course through the narrative arc, it is mid-plot resourceful strength and a possible budding victory beyond the climax of struggle.
Just like nobody is boycotting the US/EU from its illegal wars and border concentration camps. Gotta make that cash to feed and keep people happy. The sad stone cold truth.
It’s a SRS without context. You could probably put contextual bandits somewhere in the loop and optimize for the individual.

I found it very disappointing when Duolingo released their paper on optimizing their global SRS on data they collected from the users. There was no context, only curve fitting for a better multipler of fail and success.
I minded. Because his opinion is in line with what the Chinese perspective.

We as americans vehemently disagree, but a chinese citizen, after witnessing several terrorist attacks by the Uighur which slaughtered hundreds of chinese people, will obviously have a different perspective. This isn't a one time isolated incident... these were multiple attacks occurring with no end in sight.

Rather than not minding insults to opinions you disagree with, why don't you have an open mind and post why you disagree rather then insult the person you disagree with?
Death is part of life, so is some element of suffering and pain, but neither are desirable. I don’t really subscribe to the “death is natural” idea. It’s certainly not a taboo for me, but my experience of life is the ultimate natural high and sure when it has gone I won’t be here to mourn the loss. But you can be upset (naturally so) and grieve for what you will lose, by knowing your life will be cut short or the shared future you have lost when someone you love dies.

Without that capacity, we would lose the precious ability to imagine a better life.

Hope is the feeling that takes us out of absurdity. Hope that one day the nature of the universe will be understood.

Thank you very much for sharing this! It was a really, very well thought out piece. If I had a particular criticism though,

equally is not obvious to me. If that is indeed the case, are we not back at square one?
It depends. If the shows are available with each episode available on a separate tape (and each separate tape could be individually purchased), then yes, the VCR fair use justification evaporates. But generally VHS tapes include multiple episodes and individual episodes can not be individually purchased (other than a limited number of very special episodes), so there is still an argument to be made for fair use on the basis of each individual episode.

Furthermore according to parents logic VCRs shouldn't be allowed to exist because they can record from both categories.

No, that's not at all what I said. VCRs are just tools. Tools are subject to a different analysis post-DMCA: does the tool have a substantial non-infringing use or is it deliberately designed to violate copyright?

In determining whether a tool was deliberately designed to violate copyright, they look beyond just the mere function of the tool and examine why that functionality is present, and how the tool and that potentially-violating functionality is marketed.

On that note: DVRs generally no longer exist today as standalone goods (see, for example Tivo, etc). This is because the copyright owners introduced new time-shifting licenses a few years ago, and your cable company, Hulu, etc. pay the copyright owners for the right to let their viewers view content on a time-shifted basis. A standalone DVR would generally have the primary purpose of violating those (relatively new) rights, and thus wouldn't pass muster today.

What about VCRs? They're still okay. They make degraded, low-quality copies of broadcast transmissions for archival/time-shifted uses by people who have TVs that still connect to VCRs. As those people generally wouldn't be able to access the equivalent digital content on their TV, it's clear that the primary use of VCRs is for fair uses purposes.
> and it might be illegal to use the car on public roads after having reprogrammed the ECU, but neither of those two things are incompatible with the GPL.

Actually I think that would constitute a GPL violation on the part of the government (enforcing additional restrictions on the use of the software), although the government is generally not the one distributing the code (and also good luck holding them accountable even if they were).

Making Multi-Cloud Good: Why it sucks and how to make it better
The philosophical thinking around regenerative medicine is interesting.

On one side there's the union of opposites where without death there can be no life, without pain no pleasure, etc.

Then there's the scientist approach which just wants to reverse engineer life and increasing life span/quality.

I sympathize with both sides. I think someone like Kurzweil is doing too much and blinded by hope and that his idea of the future halfway sounds like hell but at the same time I think a lot could be gained by say doubling life expectancy and there's no need for any metaphysics.

> How does watching an ad decrease the amount of money I have?

There are at least 5 parties here:

· Content producer (spending time and effort making original content that people watch)
· Platform
· Advertiser
· Content consumers
· Thief

In your comment you're Content producer. The advertiser pays the platform who pays the content producer, and the amount they get is based on the number of views (there are other factors, but I think views is the main one). Let's say they're getting X views per day. Then the theif takes the content and uploads it to their own account with ads enabled, and gets Y views per day, and gets paid for that. No one is going to watch the content on the producer's channel a 2nd time just to make up their view stats, so now the producer is only getting X-Y views per day and hence is paid less.

This is the reason Youtube's Content-ID exists.
I guess further studies are needed. :)
AFAICT it's not even a parser:

thank you. this is exactly how I feel about it.

zmq appears to be a layer that tries to hide some of the most important details that the socket layer exposes. socket programming and the state machines that tend to go along with it are some of the least difficult parts of systems programming to do well, it is well documented, well understood and there are ample tools to help measure ground truth. it was always weird to me that zmq had such a strong reputation; it basically hides what would otherwise be a few hundred lines of library code (including a framer).
I get it, but in this case it is the DOCTOR basically thinking "stupid users". Nobody was endangered, the patient was just put in a heck of a lot of pain because the doctor assumed they were lying or wrong and it wasn't even worth checking, because their pain didn't matter that much to the doctor.

The hospital is a PRIME place for systems meant to avoid mistakes. (Although your example with checklists and pilots is odd; the checklist IS such a system, a remarkably successful one. And over the last 10 years, is used more often in hospitals too. I guess you could say that every checklist should have TWO people check it off or something, but it's such successful technology at reducing mistakes I'm not sure I've seen this suggested).

But no system can make up for doctors who don't respect patients or care about their pain.

> How do you feel about television?

I think it's kinda too early too judge (only ~60 years of widespread adoption and in this time the TV landscape has changed massively), but I think there's a pretty good chance that 'tabloid style' TV has caused a good deal more damage than the yellow press has.

> At least there's some ability to interact with a smartphone

Sure, but that also makes it a lot more addictive. You generally won't see people who are glued to their TV 24/7, but with smartphones that's not uncommon.

> yet society survived

Again, I'm not saying that society will just implode on itself, just that these things can do a lot of damage.

I agree. I also agree that the author, like many who try to define solarpunk by pulling utopic goals (ie startrek utopia, singapore vs HK) and fantasies, confuse the readers on what is punk and solarpunk.

Punk is not about where you are going, is not about what will become. Punk is about doing it regardless of that and what others expect you to. A solarpunk is certainly hopeful that actions will lead to a better reality, but they are more focused on action today than what will be of tomorrow.

A solarpunk is a punk because, unlike other more mainstream ecologist they don't need to convince others of their view to act. They just act.
The account apparently had some millions deposited into in and then withdrawn quickly after. It's not entirely clear who or where that money came from in the first place.
Almost exactly the same thing happened to me (also in the UK), except rather than checking me in, they had transposed a couple digits on my NHS number and checked in a random person. Not sure if the NHS number has a check digit, and if not why not, but I digress...

Rather than going to lunch, after I sat waiting for 3hrs they closed the department. When I went up to let them know I hadn't been seen yet, they apologised profusely, called back the specialist - who had already left - and saw me after closing time.

It's not just a practical matter for many of us. We _know_ we can remove it. The problem is one of principal.

I used an app (not tinder, there I couldn't get a single match) where you could get a notification showing how many people looked at your profile.

I had a picture with my late dog and had ~12 visits a day. In that picture I had was wearing a hoodie, and the hood covering my bald head.

Removed that picture, and the number of visits went down to 1-2 per week at much.

The number of women who decided to get in touch with me plummeted proportionaly, but wasn't that high to begin with.
Thanks for the information. It so cool that you can just examine the die and know the answer.

There are definitely trade offs to consider so I can understand why the Intel engineers took that route.

On the one hand, one gets a very negative output level, which I suppose no one really cares about in the 70s so maybe that’s not even a disadvantage. But to level shift more toward ground would consume more die area per IO and increase the output impedance of the pin, unless one did another buffer stage, which would be even more die area.

It’s interesting how we can just absorb this extra complexity in modern circuits without even batting an eye. It’s barely even considered as extra complexity.

Not sure if it's because I might be a bit younger than you, or because I went to school in NZ, but i think it's come full circle, certainly where I went to highschool, the high achievers (people who got university scholarships and got the best grades) were the cool kids, the low achievers were the losers.
> attraction is more about perception than reality

This seems kind of obvious? A person cannot know reality, only their perception of it.
This simply isn’t true. And even if it were, that is still no excuse. Terrible things happen in war. Innocent people die or get seriously scarred in war, often for decades to come after the war ends. Being “better then the opposing party” is no excuse and provides no comfort to the victims of war.
Ask HN: How should I think about my noncompete IP agreement?
Hi HN!

I am curious to know your opinions on your noncompete agreements. These are often extremely broad and restrictive, especially if you don't live in a knowledge labor friendly state like California.

I currently have a noncompete that restricts me from working in a management or ownership position at "infrastructure" companies for the next year.

How do you think about this? I am specifically asking in the context of starting my own venture. Do I really need to be unemployed for an entire year to be in the clear?

The former image is from a blog post entitled "Shell Startup Scripts" [0] which I've just submitted [1] separately because it's so much more informative (it's been posted to HN previously but never really provoked much discussion).

That blog post was my primary reference after zshall(5) when I decided to blow away the years of cruft I'd built up, start over, and rewrite my (Zsh) shell init files from scratch -- and I've been amazed at how much more organized and manageable it all is since then!

Prior to switching to Zsh, I had gotten to the point of just dumping everything in one file and making sure it was sourced (by bash) in all instances.

The real issue is that we don't care to hurt ourselves enough in punishing the Chinese.

If they were some minor country that supplied all the world's bananas someone could potentially put together something like that, and we'd all live without bananas for a while.

But China makes just about everything, and not just cheap and simple stuff anymore.

In game theory (and experiments with real people) sometimes it makes sense to punish a misbehaving player even though it harms you yourself. It really does not seem like any country in the West is anywhere close to being willing to do that.
