> In April 2019, Boston Dynamics acquired Kinema Systems, a Menlo Park, Calif.-based startup that uses vision sensors and deep learning to help robots manipulate boxes. Kinema’s Pick system was rebranded as the Boston Dynamics Pick System. It was the company’s first commercialized product.

Interesting, I thought Spot was the first commercial product BD sold. But the Pick System seems like it would be much more viable for commercial application and adaption.

#1 implies the firing of a bad manager, which didn't happen. It also requires others in the group to back me up (as a security concern very few people knew).

#2 seemed more fitting since no action was taken. And it resulted in me leaving that area of the company (voluntarily thankfully).
Even if a bunch of Europeans from different countries do talk in perfect english, understanding every word, cultural differences will make true communication hard.

The original thread was a person upset about the definition of what society considers extreme viewpoints. I don't see anyone arguing which frame is correct but merely that the bar moves over time. Which we know it does. Your above link and statement reinforces this. So you can be an extremist today with a viewpoint that was common 30 years ago. That doesn't change the fact that you're an extremist today.

Well, that settles it then. User "tsimionescu" of Romania assures us there is nothing to see here, so move along, citizen. The massive lawsuit Texas, Louisiana, and Missouri just filed against four other states doesn't matter anymore.

If you think this is the constitutional process for disputing an election, you're mistaken.

Trump is arguing that (a) SCOTUS should (b) order several states to have their legislatures appoint new electors (c) on the basis of a suit brought by Texas against several other states (d) alleging that state court rulings modifying electoral law (in accordance with state statutes) are unconstitutionally overruling state legislatures' ability to determine their electors. (See http://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/22O155/163234/20201...)

There are 4 separate elements in that assertion that are each unprecedented in terms of disputing an election. SCOTUS is not the venue for election disputes; state courts are. No one has ever before argued that state legislators can appoint electors in lieu of popular vote, and as some briefs have pointed out, several state statutes (including some of the states involved here!) expressly forbid that. No state has ever before tried to challenge the election procedures of another state. And the legal basis for doing all of this is itself without precedent.

This is not normal.
It baffles me that so many people fall for what Trump says. He was already declaring fraud weeks before the election because he knew exactly how it would pan out. People described exactly what he would do and he did it.
He declared he won on the election night before all votes were counted. It is so blatantly explicit that he is lying, gaslighting, and deceiving people that it amazes me how so many intelligent, educated people fall for this crap.
I'm pretty sure you're right, particularly if you combined the socio-cultural views from his first term and the global military actions of the second.

It's absolutely untethered how far much of the left has moved in 10-15 years. The right has also moved toward the right, but they're much less homogeneous in their beliefs.

The conclusion o draw from this is not YouTube / Google are bad for censoring, but near monopolies are bad, especially in the field of news and information delivery. And the solution is to use existing antitrust law to break up the monopolies and require them to support a common api, like Open Social.

I never truly understood how demagogues gained power until this election. I see history in a completely different light now. No matter what you say to these people, they'll either ignore it, or find some other lie to hang their hat on. If you point out the facts, they'll deny the source, or say, "How do YOU know? Did YOU count all the votes?" or some other nonsense.

What's the cure for this? (Not asking OP, he's one of the zombie hoards. He'll go to his deathbed convinced of his own delusions.) We used to just ignore these types of stubborn, brain washed conspiracy theory wackos, but now there's tens of millions of them.

It's truly frightening.
You point out some good examples, though I'd argue some of those were politicians/governments lying and those lies simple being reported (admittedly, often with an editorial bias).

I think what we are seeing now is different. People like Trump don't need doctored satellite photographs and elaborately constructed propaganda that the press will fall for - they can use social media platforms as a very public podium from which to spew lies. And, perhaps because of the viral nature of social media, and perhaps because of the inherent terseness of Twitter, people are bombarded by these tiny nuggests of "truth" from "trusted" people who "obviously" wouldn't lie, and the become "truth" for those people.

I think the key difference now is that it's never been so easy to put out "news", and it's never been so easy to consume so very many sources of "news", or so frequently.
I mean, the Third Way Democrats whole shtick is embracing right wing policies and injecting them into the democratic party. They gained power as a faction in the democratic party around 1992 with the argument that after Reagan changed politics in the US and after losing the presidency for three elections, they argued that the democratic party needed to shift heavily to the right to chase what Americans were looking for. Clinton got for instance got elected on a platform to "end the welfare system a we know it", and gun control (which at the time was a right wing policy because scary minorities were open carrying. Reagan actually passed the law against open carrying, the Mulford Act, stating at the time that there was "no reason why on the street today a citizen should be carrying loaded weapons"). The explicit goal here was courting center right moderates.

Since then the Democratic Party has continued tracking to the right, with Newt Gingrich and the Heritage Foundation's 1994/94 HEART Act being slightly edited and passed as Obamacare.

This isn't a "terrifying perspective", but literally public statements and accepted political science.

Yes, 80 vCPU are logical cores, but ClickHouse is using the number of threads equal to the number of physical cores by default (40 threads).

This is a reasonable default - when setting up the number of threads to full vCPU count, performance of single query will be slightly better but this will affect the max number of concurrent queries badly.

Based on my casual browsing of the code I assume that it pushes small HTML fragments via WebSockets whenever the backend state changes on a given ActiveRecord model. It covers things like automatically updating the state of a model on a page, adding, removing, reordering elements etc all without any custom code so long as things are wired up correctly.

Basically, all the "re-activeness" of an SPA but without ever having to worry about the concept of client side state management at all.

Edit: I am a grumpy old man in web-dev years who hadn't ever really looked into Phoenix Live View before now but after watching a video on how it works, yes, my understanding is that it works basically the same way.
> There has been election fraud.

Has there been election fraud? What evidence supports this claim?
Devs are bad at code review, in that devs are bad at being fair, thorough, appreciative, clear. All too frequently code is "reviewed", when really it's just "marked as okay or not". Also, all too frequently a reviewer leaves a comment without concise actionable feedback - "You could do this this way" or "Sometimes I do ____ this way."

Style comments are almost always a huge pain. Style shouldn't be up to the dev most of the time - it should be an automated step as part of either dev or build. If it's not, don't comment on it within the review. Make a task to automate code styling instead.

If the author of the code doesn't immediately know what has to happen to get their code merged, the reviewer has failed. If the outcome of the code review requires changes to the fundamental approach that the author took, that is also a conversation that should not happen within the confines of the code review (because devs are bad at being concise, fair, clear).

If there is a culture where leaving positive feedback ("Looks great!", "Smart decision doing ____", etc) is strange, and PRs are used to overly scrutinize peers to appear greater than, find a new job. Don't even bother trying to help.

It's not clear to me that open-source-as-a-business-model was ever vibrant enough that it makes sense to say it has now died. Open-source-as-a-funding-model was surely a thing, but turning open source into a source of consistent and growing free cash flow has been much more rare.

At my last start-up the first things to go out the window when we wanted to stop burning money were the commercial Aerospike and Nginx licenses. That was five years ago.

The most durable model for commercially-funded open source is as a stratagem for commoditizing someone's complement. If you want to stick it to Apple, fund Android. If you want to stick it to Oracle, fund PostgreSQL. If you want to stick it to Microsoft, fund LibreOffice. If you want to stick it to Sun -- er, Oracle -- fund Linux.

This is completely backwards. Restaurants don't have to partner with delivery apps. If they're not organized to make a profit given those margins, they should stop participating. If they can't turn a profit, they should naturally go out of business.

Likewise, no one is forcing people to use delivery apps. The apps provide a benefit of convenience without a huge cost overhead. If people don't want to use the apps, they shouldn't use the apps. If they can get higher value by going to restaurants directly, rational customers will do that.

Delivery apps are simply helping to sweep the market clean of inefficient mom'n'pop food shacks and helping us get to healthier business reality where restaurants are better aligned with diners. Have you seen Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares? Most restaurants are run by insane people who have no idea what they're doing!

If diners really expect undeliverable value and restaurants must be held together with duct tape and baling wire, it is an unhealthy market and will naturally destroy itself.

> I'm almost a free speech absolutist, but I also really hate all the crazy, conspiratorial thinking that is so common these days. It puts me odds with myself. I can't say I'm sad when crazy and dangerous ideas are removed from the internet. However, I think it's clear to see how this could be abused. A system where the "right" ideas are allowed depends on the people in charge having the "right" ideas.

On the other hand, I'm not a free speech absolutist (obviously) because I don't trust other people to behave reasonably. But if everyone were perfectly rational, I probably would be; and maybe you and I are rational enough that we can handle "dangerous" ideas without succumbing to emotional manipulation (but then again, maybe not). However, while perhaps we can watch a purposefully mis-informative video, evaluate the merits of those claims, and dismiss them out of hand, do you trust everyone else to do the same?

That isn't to say you or I should be the arbiter of truth, but there should be some bare minimum standard. In my mind, there are two pillars for public discourse:

1. Facts, upon which arguments are based.

2. Deductive/inductive arguments, which appeal to values.

Obviously different people will have different values, so they will evaluate the weight of the arguments differently; however, facts are facts -- those should be the common ground. When someone denies reality by positing conspiracies without meaningful evidence, public discourse is impossible.

> What if instead, it's the company which is telling the truth, but the government which is malicious, and wants to censor them?

If the government is malicious, the correct response is voting. Unlimited free speech won't help: a malicious government could censor free speech; or a malicious government could promote un-truths with as much weight as truths, transforming "matters of fact" into "matters of opinion".

(As an aside, I'm nearly a democracy absolutist despite my distaste for free speech absolutism. While that might seem contradictory, democracy thrives in public discourse, and unlimited free speech can hamper that: think Citizen's United, where money can give someone an outsized influence; or conspiracies, which deny facts.)
That is not my recollection whatsoever. A quick read through the HN reactions that day (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3817840) shows a mix of bewilderment and belief that this is a defensive play. Very few people actually opined that Instagram represented much actual value.

That’s true, but Redis and MongoDB are at different points in their growth. Redis is worth around 1 billion, and they are still private. I would not be surprised if Redis usage continues to grow, which attracts more competitors, and they eventually shift to a “99% open” model more similar to MongoDB.

>US have 17/100k of population, Italy has 8. We are not famous for being big on personal responsibility.

I didn't say we were the best, just that we are doing better than some who are throwing much more money at the problem. So money obviously isn't the issue.

>They are 0.3/100k of population though or roughly 56 times less than US.
>At that level the problem is solved, not completely, but at least the number the country has to deal with is manageable.
>If US had the same share of homeless people of Italy (and they could do muuuuuuch better than us) they would have half of the homeless population.
>Which is a radical improvement if you ask me.

Yeah, again, the US isn't the best. You can find many countries with lower homeless rates. We can do better. The countries with the best rates can do better. So what?
Japan has one of the highest suicide rates in the world. Italy has double the unemployment of the rest of the EU average. "Do what they do" is obviously not good advice in a general sense. Homelessness is a hard problem, but San Francisco specifically is doing an awful job, even relative to the US as a whole, managing it because of local politics.

With both Google and Facebook, mandatory licensing of their advertising inventory (within reason) would help competitors grow. Advertisers want to buy on Facebook/Google because they are the only two ad platforms with quality and scale. Companies like Pinterest/Twitter/Snapchat don't have the enough scale to be interesting to most advertisers. Programatic marketplaces (Adwords, etc.) have the scale, but not the quality (too many spammy publishers and lack of identity resolution across the marketplace). If the big two digital ad platforms were required to license their premium inventory, other companies could invest in their products and gain substantial incremental revenues as consumers started using them. With current business practice, you need to reach massive scale before you can even think about monetizing at reasonable rate ($30+ CPM).
It's not, because it makes them a bucket of money. Only in hindsight with an FTC in the final days of a mercurial administration do we get stuff like this.
