The lesson of the past ten years should be that most people are incapable of looking at the content and context and deciding on their own if it is true, and additionally are being subjected to a constant barrage of paid-for (whether by advertisers, corporate interests, or state actors) psychologically manipulative content.

I'm unsure about this and I don't know the answer -- but it's definitely not Present All Things As If They Were Equally Valid.
Definitely finding the right thing to make and then finding product-market fit are the same, but bootstrapping necessarily limits your choices to products/services that are profitable early on rather than after burning millions to capture market share. Bootstrapping also, in my opinion and experience, requires a lot more appreciation of accounting and finance on the part of founders, and a lot more questioning ("do I really need to hire another person for this or can I find a way to keep costs down?"). I can definitely see a different curriculum and skillset building that is separate from the VC track.
Oh, nice! How did I not find your tweets in all my searching around?
This seems nitpicky.

Saying "we apologize" multiple times is the same as "we're sorry".

They've said their communications were in error in the way they described the complaints, the status of the investigation, and their charged language.

They've kicked the whole thing up to the responsible organizational Board of Directors for more action - which is to say, completely removed the group that made the errors from next steps.

That's about as good an public apology from one specific committee, with limited remit, as is possible!

If NumFocus as a whole takes further steps, I'm sure we'll hear. But there's no reason to hold up this 'mea culpa' until everything is settled at all levels. Promptness is better than perfection!
Totally agree with you. I just disagreed with the OP's statement that it's not "real automation" just because some triggers don't work without user input.

> And I should be able to consent to Shortcuts doing things in the background without my explicit permission, much like I can set up cron jobs on my home PC.

Again, this is now the case for many triggers (not all, I don't think) on iOS 14.
This is common even on x86 systems.

You have to set the irq affinity to utilize the available CPU cores.

OT the title as written by the submitter (“YC Startup School for future founders who aren’t quite ready to start yet”) reminds me a bit of Zoolander

How is that their fault? They did not have the resources to follow your nation's regulations, so they chose not to support you. Perfectly reasonable business decision. Vote for better laws or move if you want to be able to take advantage of startups that cannot get past your regulation barriers.

What, you think tying namespaces to a web domain that is in no way actually used as one and results in XML that is unreadable in its fully qualified form (or in fact not even valid XML) and changes not just meaning but value as you try to copy paste any part of it, was a bad idea?
Amusingly, the dig works just as well when applied to Medium, the website.

Australia's (as well as Ireland's) main advantage seems more due to proportionate representation (parliamentary system) rather than due to IRV. Australia is still dominated by two parties (>70%) and the minor parties have to be pretty close. This is the same problem that plurality has, that it causes parties to form large coalitions in an effort to compete with the other side.

It's faster, but it's also (from my experience) a bit more taxing and often a bit draining. Unless it needs to be resolved quickly or it's a particularly complex issue, I much prefer the relaxed back-and-forth of a slack chat.
That seems unfair.

NoSQL was trying out new ideas in data storage. It was exciting to try out new or re-imagined core concepts, and some of those young projects had teething issues. But several are still around and remain popular, but they're popular for certain niches they excel at (and those niches were largely discovered through trial and error).

In the SQL-sphere a lot of people skipped Postgres because MySQL had, at the time, the momentum in the free/cheap relational database space. Between then and now Progres has grown more elegantly than MySQL, and people are rightfully looking to it.
Hot damn... yup!! Thank you.

Obviously it's quite natural to just add interceptors as you need them and no doubt there are hundreds of things like this across the Internet.

To some extent, I can't get over how much of a mess you can make by doing things like this. Because generated service definitions have a fixed schema (func (s Service) Method(context.Context, Request) (Reply, error)), you have to resort to hacks like propagating the current user through the context, instead of the easy-to-read and easy-to-test alternative of just passing in the parameters explicitly, as in func (s Service) Method(context.Context, types.Session, Request) (Reply, error). If I was going to spend time on infrastructure, that's the thing I'd fix first.

Some other frameworks do a little better here. We use GraphQL at work, and the methods are typically of the pattern:

func AutogeneratedMethod(context.Context, ...) {
foo := MustGetFoo(ctx)
bar := MustGetBar(ctx)
return ActualThingThatDoesTheWork(ctx, foo, bar, ...)
}

This makes testing the Actual Thing That Does The Work easier, and the reader of that method knows exactly what sort of state the result depends on (the most important goal in my opinion).

I read some article that the distortions at 10.000km from the merger would be ~1mm, so you could feel them, but not be harmed by them.

In contrast, if all that energy was released as EM waves, you'd be cooked from far, far away.

Such peaceful are these gravitational waves.

Been using this for 1-2 weeks now. Compared it with pretty much all the other options I found out there. The experience it's just so much better.

I fully recommend you try it - it's awesome.

All that's left which I want are dark mode mainly and maybe a cheaper alternative to more powerful GPU / something along those line. Tho, with the long-running tasks I don't really mind.

I wasn't referring to the culture of the platform, so much as the culture of the userbase.

Besides, Facebook is anything but a monoculture - nothing with a billion users could be considered a monoculture, especially not a platform where people maintain their real identity and culture rather than adopting a "platform" culture like on Reddit or 4chan.

Also, obviously, Facebook isn't the internet.

The US forms coalitions too, and that's actually part of the problem. Both the democrats and republicans have subparties within them. It is really more accurate to think of democrats and republicans as coalitions. That's why we have people like Bernie being so different from Biden. Or Trump, tea party, and neo libs, being far from classical conservatives. All of which are republicans.

Tree Felling Tutorial
No idea why you're getting downvoted, but you're right. ONe of the reasons why Erlang allows for monitors, and supervision trees and many other niceties are precisely because the VM is built that way: Processes are isolated. Even if one process suddenly dies, the VM will take care of cleanup and will notify any monitoring processes, etc.
It is often downvoted to talk about the "javascript crowd" on HN, but I've worked in software industry long enough to unequivocally and with certainty say that it totally lives up to the cliches.

It never gets old to scold people that are not serious, disciplined and principled in their endeavors that affect the rest of the world. Javascript community absolutely deserves the avalanche of criticisms they face.

It is the reason why the modern web sucks, and frankly - I wish folks at Postgres would develop a new web standards including browsers that are not governed by corporations and can be implemented in a couple of weeks. Not trivializing what goes into building browsers, but making the whole standard small enough so any one can build a browser during a sabbatical.

How do we stop COVID? Be educating people to be healthy and conscious of their surroundings.

Physical exercise and proper nutrition prevent most diseases, but no one talks about it. Why? Cause big pharma would rather you be sick and pop pills for the rest of your life.

Make sure you take multi vitamins, eat healthy, are not vitamin d deficient, load up on vitamin C in the winter, exercise, meditate, breathe clean air and 90% of diseases wont touch you.

Keep proper distance, practice good hygiene, eat a balanced healthy diet, exercise.

Hey look! Those alone prevent obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol. WTF? But what about the pills?

Yeah the committee's decision to avoid ABI breakage is a serious deathblow against the language. Especially when a formal ABI was never defined in the first place. So, C++ is stuck with poor implementations for std::regex and std::unordered_map for ever. Where even interpreted languages can beat it.
It's been a while and don't remember the specifics, but when we implemented a POSIX-compliant filesystem at Maginatics (acq. by EMC), we used MySQL (Percona actually) to store the FS logic (inode numbers, filenames, etc) and case sensitivity was one of the FS features. Maybe Percona supports it? I do remember (at least at that time) that full utf-8 support was poor though.

You can definitely find iOS/macOS developers who prefer objective-c, but they're in the minority. The vast majority would say that Swift is way, way more usable than Objective-C. Obj-C still has some advantages (dynamism being a big one) but for most tasks Swift makes developing both easier and more safe.

}

these small mistakes are starting to add up with Swift. They should really nip these things in the butt instead of adding upon the inconsistencies. Its better to make bold decisions now that you know is right than to change them 10 years from now when everyone is already use to them, which is what some older languages are dealing with now.

Why not just have it be async func refreshPlayers() { }

If he's in base 100 and you multiply by 18 it's the same story: you are now in base 1000 and need a division to go back.

Converting from binary to BCD also needs division by constants, so again it's more or less the same.

Google engineer not working on Waymo, opinions are my own.

I think "driverless" here is different from "self-driving", i.e. 'Waymo uses “driverless” here to refer to operations in which the ADS controls the vehicle for the entire trip without a human driver (whether in the vehicle or at a remote location) expected to assume any part of the driving task.' at page 5 of that report.

I think this driverless mode is only available to public on Oct 8th [0].

Do you ever think that it's a fundamental limitation of these systems that they aren't good at knowing what they don't know? Like they always give an answer, and their failure modes are so different to ours that that it can be hard for non-experts to interpret the outputs.

In some of the less harmless applications of computer vision and machine learning, sometimes it will have very severe consequences for real people that a computer says yes or no when it really doesn't have the information to say either or. Some people are afraid of what will happen to society when these systems become as accurate as humans - I am honestly more worried about what will happen if they don't.
Seems to me that he was found guilty and they're just trying to avoid the backlash from saying so. He's too tired of it all to argue about it further so they win by default and it all goes away. Their enforcement guide only mentions appeal once and it's clear that it only applies after a judgement was already made and requires the reported person to do something:

>Give them a place to appeal to if there is one, but in the meantime the action stands.
And my judgement after all available information is that they are straight up lying.

Here is why.

His stated recollection is that they said, “that is what the reporters stated, and what we found” and to his asking why his statement was not requested, “we all watched the video, so we could see for ourselves the violation”.

What they said in his version is very clear. That is not a miscommunication. Calling it a "miscommunication" sounds like nothing more than the best excuse that they came up with for themselves.

Therefore this reduces down to a simple "he said, she said" type of conflict. What I have to judge on is what is publicly known of his character, their incentives, and indications about their character. He has a solid public reputation as an upstanding person. Their incentives are to minimize perception of wrongdoing in their actions. Both the fact that they got into this mess, and their non-apology in attempting to get out of it, suggests that they lack even a shred of integrity.

Therefore it is his word against theirs. He is believable. They are not. And so I conclude that they are lying on this point.

I would go through the Springboot tutorials online setting up different types of projects, and then try start deploying your pet projects online.

You dont really learn the "magic happening under the hood" due to all of Springboots default configurations, but still i would start there because easier to get going, and then I would try build projects without Springboot (and use older Java frameworks) if you are doing so to prepare for a job that uses some legacy framework you want to prep for.

Awesome, maybe the best thing I’ve seen since EDN. I might have to adopt this if EDN is too hard for my audience. Looks like converting to native Clojure data right after reading and back before display/storage should be easy enough.

Any concept of namespaces? I read the page, saw none. I have this mapping of XML to EDN that I want to apply, maybe port the stock XMPP transport. (I’ve a Patreon if this sounds good, same handle).
No. And it's not just corporations. Because of our IP system, IP (patents, copyrights) ends up being part of the portfolio of any company, including a startup. If the startup is looking to get acquired, that IP ends up being a part of the value of the startup.

And besides, some people might not believe in or care about the four essential freedoms. They don't have to be corporations.

And then of course, there are the ideological reasons that I listed in my OP.
Not quite. Even rather poor people in poor countries can get PCs with decent computing power, as PC performance plateaued circa 2010 and old PCs are really cheap. You don't need to get something 20-25 years old when something 5-10 years old is maybe 20% more expensive and a lot more powerful.
You have an uphill battle facing you if you think you’re going to strip businesses of the right to manage how they serve their own customers.

Instead of focusing on trying to prevent social networks from moderating their platforms so that they’re safe, you should instead work to strengthen open protocols so that they work better and offer better alternatives to what already exists.

I think the reason there’s always resistance to these complaints is because when it comes down to it, people want to be able to experience the internet in a safe environment, and preventing networks from moderating that experience limits that possibility.
You have to rank them against one another. 10 candidates, 10 comparisons. 100 candidates, 100 comparisons.
