8 mentions of the 'graph' on the page. Zero renderings of the graph :(

It is a nice user interface and the reference material is useful and well presented. But when you get down to it, it's linear lists about the characteristics of a semantic graph. As I've said many times, this is like describing a tree with a tabular catalog of its leaves. Graph navigation needs a graphical representation, because things like branchiness (node out-degree) and other factors are more easily shown than described.

The basic problem with graph representation/ navigation/ traversal is that there are many valid ways of looking at the graph and it's hard to render them all. Maybe try using a gutter to allow users to temporarily pin certain graph characteristics and render accordingly. In this context, sometimes I might be interested in the latest research that cites a paper, other times I might be looking to see who picked it up first, or to apply some sort of windowing function to a large spectrum of citations.

But I want to see the graph, even if I am looking for a particular leaf.
With the important distinction that most investment vehicles represent tangible ownership (of equity in a company, of a debt obligation, of real estate, etc.)

Bitcoin exists primarily as something people buy in order to hopefully sell to someone else, all with the underlying value intangible and arguably nonexistent beyond scarcity.

> Things like getting into a car and having it launch you 100 feet into the air before returning you to the ground is pretty amusing, sure.

These types of bugs can be very hardware-specific. If people are playing on hardware similar enough to the game developer's workstations, they might not encounter them at the same rate that you do. Something to bear in mind.

> For an internal publication the economist has definitely slipped. FT under Japanese ownership meanwhile is still quite solid.

Glad that some other HN-er has also noticed that. I've been an Economist reader for about 15 years now, and lately (the last 3-4 years, maybe?) I've started to notice that slippage you mention.

Among the most obvious cases for me was that "Corbyn as Lenin" front-page [1], which was absolutely disgraceful (if it matters I'm not an UK citizen and I don't particularly fancy Corbyn nor his policies), plus many of their Trump articles have been also pretty disgraceful, at least according to the Economist standards (the comic from one of the latest issues sends Trump directly to the garbage bin? like, what the hell is that?).

For comparison, I find the FT quite unchanged, and that's good.

>>The amount your government retains is not a total loss for you either.

I assume here you are implying I get something of value from my tax dollars, but this does not make it any less of a theft. If I come to your home, mow your grass then "tax" your car from you as payment for my services you would still call that theft. and rightly so.

Simply because the government "gave" me services I neither asked for nor consented to does not mean their taking of my labor / money is ceases to be theft

>If you produce a profit for your employer, you are not earning 100% of your labor, time, and knowledge.

This is false thinking, given your clear bias to socialism I can understand why you think that but it never the less false

My employer accepts my labor (at the agreed rate), then combines my labor with the labor of others, and their own capital investment / or other assets (like a brand) where by that is repackaged by them to be sold as goods and services on the market.

True the total value of the end product sold has to be greater than their purchase cost, that is how businesses work, and how a Value Add economy functions, that however does not mean I did not get 100% of the value of my labor, on the contrary.

I will ignore the attempt the slide in the government as a valid and ethical actor in the transaction, they are not. A market transaction consists of the buyer and seller that is all, the government is an unethical 3rd party leech on the system

Keep in mind I am not opposed to all government finance, at the end of the day I would even support a UBI, in fact I would support a UBI over all other forms of welfare. I however would implement such a system using Georgism Single Tax model on natural resources, not on income, wealth or labor.
I'm not sure about those other countries, but an Australian "winter" is very different from a British winter.

As I said - there are other factors here (many more than I mentioned) - that you can't compare countries so easily.
> No, it was not unstable. It just behaved differently enough that some additional pilot training would have been needed without MCAS.

Quoting Boeing with my own emphasis:

> MCAS, or Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System, is a flight control law implemented on the newer models of the 737 to provide consistent airplane handling characteristics at elevated Angles of Attack in certain unusual flight conditions only.

Which, to be clear, means it's intended to stabilize the plane ("consistent") in circumstances where the physical design of the plane would render the plane unstable (inconsistent) in certain operating environments.

> The EA made a different mistake - turning off the trim when it was too far from neutral.

Do you have a specific citation for this? I'm digging through the ECAA report and am not able to find this specific mention. https://web.archive.org/web/20200310004955/http://www.aib.go... (original site is timing out)

---

It seems you're generally suggesting that the instructions provided by Boeing were sufficient for the plane to remain airworthy without further mitigation; this was contradicted by the ECAA and others. Is this what you're suggesting?
The article has many incorrect points describing the situation around the battle.

Napoleon was not simply attacking the Tsar. It was the Russian Tsar who claimed to stop anti-monarchy freedom spread in Europe and planned to invade France. The same is true for European Coalitions that had had place before the French-Russian war. Napoleon moved the battles out of France.

The rest information, including troop quantity, is presented in the inaccurate manner.
That is true indeed, but there's a cost for having your instance, proper cases, cooling the instances down, securing them, ensuring proper networking and more, pretty much the same stuff as a regular cloud, that's why I was wondering if people would be interested.

For the yes part, what would be the monthly price you'd be willing to pay?

I have the local knowledge to tell you that there aren't parked vehicles in or near that part of the building. You can even see in aerials that it's that it's a lawn with walking paths and a prefab outbuilding. I think this SAR image may be from before the outbuilding was there, and historical imagery shows that it used to just be an extension of the lawn. I think the bright objects are a distorted reflection from elements of the building facade, perhaps. I don't know, I'm squinting at the SAR image having a hard time deciding if it depicts the outbuilding or not, and it perhaps says something about the limitations of SAR images that it's not clear to the untrained eye whether or not an entire building is there. I think it's possible the building is there and is just made of materials with very low reflectivity, there are sort of "ghost lines" that seem in the right place for its edges.

> NZ is about the same size and population as Oregon, so a single state could choose to do it, if they were willing to face up to the implications of the choice.

In the US, some of the relevant choices have to be made at the Federal level.

For example, Oregon does not have authority to close state borders to travellers from other states or countries.

I wonder how much different this would be had it been a linux application running under apparmor or in a container environment... One would expect from a security perspective that all of these remotely distributed applications would be running under some kind of chroot jail or container to prevent the kind of exposure that is obviously happening here. I think Microsoft is a little complicit in their lack of security in their OS platform allowing these types of issues to proliferate repeatedly year after year with no real changes happening in the ways that applications are locked down.
I was about to write this same thing. It is amazing to me how scientists/experts sometimes seem utterly incapable to level with an audience.

> Why does it seem that press releases and public statements like this tend to overstate things, to the point of fallacy, in order to make a definitive point?

While in my mind, things were better with Fairness Doctrine and Equal-time Rule restrictions, I think we could solve this in the US by greater tax-funded federal, state, and local government-funded media, where the government has no control over that media aside from that of regulation to promote fair and equal representation within that media.

Basically, put PBS, state, and local programming into a streamed source similar to Netflix/Hulu/Prime, produce content with quality surpassing other streaming services, and give the public air time both via meritocratic decision by randomly selected electorate as well as via lottery and availability. The BBC might be a good model to emulate also.

At that point, there would at least be an alternative to B.S. journalism and bad media behavior reinforced by viewership and advertising dollars.

The TAS contracts required them to buy at settlement price. They obviously did not want inventory so they sold an equal number of contracts. (Sell high, buy low). That much is a routine short scenario.

The unusual part of this scenario is that contracts were expiring (it required someone to take actual inventory) so prices at settlement went negative. So when they "bought" to cover their shorts at settlement they were paid to do so.

If your provider uses SFTP, you can use nFreezer (http://github.com/josephernest/nfreezer) which I built exactly for the same purpose than you. (I first thought about 7z too but having to reupload the whole archive even if only a few files are modified made me look for another solution).

In short, you can do

nfreezer backup my_documents/ user@11.22.33.44:/backup/

and the backup will be done or updated (if only 1MB have changed since last backup, only 1MB will be uploaded and not 100 GB).

Everything is encrypted locally (including the filenames), and never decrypted on remote. You can't use the files on the remote server, it's only cold storage - the only thing you can do with it is: restore to your local computer (if one day you need it), and decrypt it locally.

It's 250 lines of code in one single source file, so you can read it quickly to see if it's ok or not for your use case.

A First Look at Ghidra’s Debugger – Game Boy Advance Edition
their view was the price was going to drop during the day. so they entered into contracts to buy oil at the end of the day, at whatever the prevailing price was. Now they are long oil. During the day they sell oil futures, flattening their position. Net at end of day, they're contracted to buy at some price, but contracted to sell at a bunch of higher prices. Hence in the money.

My basic maths implies they sold - and bought - 10k lots, which is 10m barrels. So a huge position.

In theory, any tiny reduction in infection rate can make the decisive difference when the number of new infections from each existing infection is close enough to one. In practice, this is extremely unlikely to work in the real world because in reality, this is not some universal constant that is fixed at a particular value everywhere by some physical law - it varies from place to place, from job to job, from community to community, and the ones where it's below 1 will end up representing an exponentially smaller fraction of cases compared to the ones where it's above 1 meaning that the overall average won't stay below 1 for long.

Treating R, the number of infections from each case, as though it was the same everywhere is just a way of simplifying the model, but the map is not the territory and we need to be a lot more careful about whether our simplifying assumptions change the overall behaviour of the system being modelled than we have been.

There are two 'types' of codes you can make, one is a regular redirect to the link you enter (Link QR), the other takes you to a qr.new page that has the information you entered on it (Everything QR). So make sure you have the right type selected and that you've put your link in the link field.

I grew up in a third world dog-eat-dog culture where kindness is generally equated with naivete and everyone has to keep their guard up against each other.

I'm still struggling with ping-ponging between being taken advantage of or being too mean. I don't know where to draw the line and with whom.

In the last couple months alone I've been played for a fool by a few people who, to put it simply, weren't deserving of kindness. It certainly has not been good for my health, mental or physical, and it's going to leave me too cold and cynical for someone who could actually use some kindness, until I being to feel bad about that and open myself up to being exploited and so the cycle repeats.
Yes I do. Earth is proof life can exist in this universe (obviously). It seems reasonable a basic form of life exists elsewhere.

I don't think we will ever observe alien life as it's too hard. Other solar systems are too far away, let alone other galaxies. We can't even properly observe nearby planets such as Venus.

The article mentioned faster, not cheaper. A performance-per-dollar and per watt is certainly valuable, but for a forum that always mentions that a couple hundred bucks are worth spending for shaving off time from a developer workflow (SSDs, RAM, etc, assuming they earn market rates) this benchmark is worth it.

As a desktop user, I certainly am interested in these numbers.
Moreover, it's hard to take articles like this at face value when a lot of other statistics regarding quality of life, such as infant mortality and life expectancy, have been constantly improving for at least a century.

However I wouldn’t be surprised if we were to witness the political left winning over this vote share in less then a generation by targeting the wealthy elite. And I think this is even more likely to happen in Texas then say California.

Thanks for sharing some programming-centric benchmarks using modern CPUs. I always wish that CPU reviewers would stop churning out pages of graphs with synthetic benchmark workloads and instead post things that actually matter, like compile times and other programming benchmarks.

The M1 processor is extremely impressive for the price and power envelope. However, I'm noticing a lot of people have taken Apple's marketing material a bit too literally and assumed that it somehow beats any and every desktop CPU out there, which is clearly not the case.

Moreover, as the author mentions: A significant portion of Apple's lead came from buying exclusivity on TSMC's 5nm process through the end of the year. It will be interesting to see how AMD stacks up as they roll out 5nm parts in the future, compared to Apple's scaled up M1 successors.

Exciting times. It's good to have some progress in CPU technologies again after years of Intel stagnation.
