I was very angry at first, but yes, he knew that I was not the type of person that would put a bullet in his head. He didn’t do anything to shift blame - he couldn’t. My name was all over the patents the company held, so he couldn’t deny my participation. He simply stopped talking to me and then used his lawyers to attempt to silence me.

Unfortunately, karma just is not a thing. Among more than a dozen homes he owns are two mansions in California, each over 10k sq ft (at least one of which was paid for with my money), within about 10 minutes of each other. One is on a bluff overlooking the ocean, and the other is more inland where he rides horses with his wife, who is roughly half his age and who was married to someone else until it became obvious to her then-husband that she was pregnant with my business partner’s child. Ironically, among his other business ventures today is a Christian magazine/movie production company.

I will never see justice served upon him. He will continue to live a fabulous life and I, quite likely, won’t. But being angry over it does nothing for me.
DAI is tied directly to the dollar. In what way is it better than a simple bank account for storing value?

The idea behind gold, silver, property, etc as value stores is that they remain valuable regardless of what the currency does. If your value store is the currency itself you might as well just hold the currency.
I just googled "rapeseed oil" (though I knew another name for it is "canola"), and literally the first result's title is "Rapeseed Oil (Canola Oil): Uses, Benefits, and Downsides".

Doesn't Bloomberg have a reputation as being shamelessly pay-for-play?
This in and of itself is not concerning. It makes sense for them to diversify into other forms of energy used for transportation.

What we need to keep a close watch on is what it does to prices. Will they use their position to artificially inflate the price of electricity? Or shut down existing charge points to limit supply?

Hopefully this is just them diversifying to get ahead of declining revenue of their main product, and not something more nefarious.

Can someone explain like I'm 5 what this is and what problem it solves? I googled for a few minutes and still don't understand anything.
No, definitely not. There are so many programming languages and they are all usable for >90% of all the programming problems out there. So there's significant overlap.

Some languages are better: more conducive to popularity; safer; more conducive to not wasting resources; nicer to work with; more expressive. We don't have reliable methods of objectively measuring these metrics, but they do exist.

Rust, I believe, has a pretty high aggregate score.
think you're missing the point -

the only people to survive a total nuclear war would be the elites sheltered in some bunker somewhere; the point is that decision makers were/are willing to risk destroying the species itself just so that the surviving 5 people could preserve their ideology/territory and 'win', not that nuclear war is a deterrent against local uprisings.
Seems like an interesting thesis to test. Does internal brand recognition (annual reports that consumers probably won't see) carry any weight? Because consumer brand recognition sure does.

"Indian cuisine" is not a monolith and in fact, regional cuisines are disparate, contrary to the image derived from Indian restaurant menus abroad. Some parts of India like West Bengal (which is in east India) famously use mustard oil in a lot of their cooking. Other parts of the country never use it.

> This is patently false. YTM has a library of tracks and albums that is equivalent to spotify or Google play music.

Then its completely separate library of tracks and albums randomly has songs disappear from my playlist or be unplayable in a manner indistinguishable from it sourcing its tracks from random youtube videos. My guess is that their native youtube music library does not have the breadth that their GPM one did, so some of the songs are from the community instead, and randomly disappear.

> I thought this was a rant about deleting data?

If you read the comment I'm replying to, they noted they didn't consider this a service going away if it's just a rebranding or a merger of features. I don't consider it just a rebranding, because they are removing a fully featured service and replacing it with a half baked one. I then proceed to explain the various ways it is quite half baked. Which is why my reply is on topic.

> I also did not experience this problem but they did screw up the order of my likes which was very annoying. This complaint is still off topic though.

I went from a curated list of Liked Songs in GPM to a hodge podge of those liked songs and every random joke song video I've liked since I started on Youtube. That playlist is now useless. That does pertain to my original point.
There are certainly successful exceptions to this rule. In the see exceptions I’m sure that the engineering was done to mitigate the risk. For instance with T tails, the designer would hopefully either place the elevator high enough to be out of the dirty air, or do the analysis to make sure it functioned well in he dirty air.
I have been trying ever since this happened, and so far have only had marginal success. You never know, I suppose, but that project sold for $64 million to a multibillion dollar company (Equifax). It is statistically unlikely that I will ever create something that valuable again. I am now in the DeFi space, doing some interesting things, so there is a possibility - but life has taught me not to hold my breath.

This is an impressive amount of hubris. Does the author assume that all the certifications and testing stages were for show?

I don't hold the highest view of LessWrong and the whole rationalist shtick. This post exemplifies why. Underneath this post is the assumption that the author is so much smarter than everybody else because they are Rational with a capital R and can therefore harness the power of science to make a vaccine[^1]. Again, that's an incredible amount of hubris. If there's one universal truth about science, it's that it is extremely specialized. Just because someone knows a lot about chemistry doesn't mean they're qualified to talk about biology. There is no magic Rationality that can have amateurs making vaccines a good idea. Unless you are an expert in vaccines a priori, you cannot suddenly become one in a few weeks.

Heck, I'm skeptical of doctors who are not infectious disease experts giving advice. I still hear a lot of "well my sister's neighbor's brother is a pediatrician and he said XYZ". Doctors are certainly more educated than the average person, and if this was a minor medical problem I'd certainly take a random doctor's advice. But this is a pandemic with a novel disease. Listen to the infectious disease experts.

I've never used Uber but I've used other apps (Lyft). And I have to say it looks pretty clear to me (of course I'm not drunk right now so...).

I don't expect you to understand the app if you use it for the first time when drunk, but I feel like if you've used it sober before and they didn't just completely change the UI you should be able to grok it. Maybe not if you are completely dead drunk, but I'd say you'd have the same problem with other apps you don't have already internalized completely.

What apps do you think would not have confused you in your state at the time?
I see the end goal of diversifying out their oil exposure. It may be entertaining to harbor unlikely conspiracy theories, but it's not helpful.

What I don’t get why power companies don’t setup their own stations. Infrastructure seems to be largest cost of such stations and they are in best position to enable it. Heck it could even be billed to your account, especially if you sell your solar excess to network.
I'm assuming they're going to try to start monetizing the data they've collected, not that they expect people to keep paying for more and more tests. I wouldn't read too much into the revenue that the old model generated.

(People complain that Facebook etc have become big and powerful by sucking up all your data, but at least Zuck didn't charge you for the data.)
To this very day, the majority of non technical executives having a security conversation raise with me "so we're definitely not using Supermicro right" as their top security concern. It's incredible how much that story managed to achieve.
More than the contents, the impact of the news on business is what would be used to decide. If most people think the news is likely fake there's no point giving extra attention to it by suing for libel. If it has enough impact to bring the company toward bankruptcy it will be an issue. Tbqh I wasn't even aware of that story until now.

I'm a big fan of mutation testing and I've converted a few other devs I've worked with to it. I use a tool called Stryker Mutator in C# and JavaScript/TypeScript to automate the bug-injection. It adds a little bit of overhead - a small-ish TS project where our normal test suite runs in 2 minutes or so takes about 20-25 with Stryker - but it has definitely found things that our tests weren't really covering as well as they should have before.
I used to playtest the games I worked on blitzed... I found so many issues with them that way. I soft locked the first level of halo 2 that way (after release).

My coworker, Jaime Griesemer, did the controls for the warthog when he worked on halo. He told me he tested passing driving the vehicle with the controller upside down on hard, and using his tongue on easy. His goal was the controls were good enough his grandmother could beat the mission on easy.
I know this sounds awful, but perhaps Uber drivers don't want drunk people who might vomit in their cars?
A quick look into Google results shows several ways to use Python to interact with Java libraries, I'd check that first as Scala compiles to Java class files, another way is to look how Spark provides Python support while being written in Scala.

It provides liquidity for shareholders of illiquid, private companies. It solves the problem of connecting buyers and sellers of shares in these companies.

It will also function as a better pricing function for private companies instead of using the valuation of the company at the last funding round.
"Will they use their position to artificially inflate the price of electricity"

Maybe but they have significantly less power to maneuver with solar, batteries and on-premise charging. All property is potentially a cheap gas station and for those that don't own a home with cheap electricity or solar, I'd guess that the market would respond with some form of airbnb for charging if prices at charging stations got too out of whack. Shell doesn't have the ability to create the strangle-hold that is possible with gas.
Wouldn't creating a bottleneck to significantly increase the supply be more expensive than competitors expanding the supply

The only way I see that the competitors being crushed is through IP. But for me that seems a little farfetched

But maybe someone smarter can tell me I'm wrong as I'm kinda curious about this.
I suspect there will definitely be concentrations and branding around charging stations. As I wrote above, users of fast charging stations will likely be heavily oriented toward those that put the most miles on their vehicles everyday- commercial drivers. I predict that lunch spots will end up with a lot of charging stations- drivers will do half a day's work, charge the vehicle during lunch, then be able to finish up the day without worry. The restaurant/charging station association works will for travelers.

This is likely true even once we get autonomous vehicles- people may not drive the vehicles anymore, but they will still be loading/unloading, selling, or fixing things at the destinations.

What is stopping a law from being passed that operates in a similar way to a pardon?

I've deployed mutation testing extensively in libsecp256k1 for the past five years or so, to good ends.

Though it's turned up some testing inadequacies here and there and a substantial performance improvement ( https://twitter.com/pwuille/status/1348835954396516353 ), I don't believe it's yet caught a bug there, but I do feel a lot more confident in the tests as a result.

I've also deployed it to a lesser degree in the Bitcoin codebase and turned up some minor bugs as a result of the tests being improved to pass mutation testing.

The biggest challenge I've seen for most parties to use mutation testing is that to begin with you must have 100% branch coverage of the code you might mutate, and very few ordinary pieces of software reach that level of coverage.

The next issue is that in C/C++ there really aren't any great tools that I'm aware of-- so every effort needs to be homebrewed.

My process is to have some a harness script that:

1. makes a modification (e.g. a python script that does small search and replacements one at a time line by line, or just doing it by hand).

2. attempts to compile the code (if it fails, move on to the next change)

3. Compares the hash of the optimized binary to a collection of already tested hashes and moves onto the next if it's already been seen.

4. Runs the tests and if the tests pass save off the diff.

5. Goto 1.

Then I go back trough the diffs and toss ones that are obviously no meaningful effect, and lob the remaining diffs over to other contributors to figure out if they're false positives or to improve the tests.
You're right, nobody will be automagically freed as a result. That being said, pushing for amnesty, and pushing for pardons is completely how the law works, and very doable.
I’m intrigued by the current version number and what seems to be a quick pace of development. I see that you have a “HTTPie feature parity checklist” (issue #4) on the issues list. Is that the sole indicator (aside from bugs) of what a version 1.0 would be like?

Also, please post another Show HN when the backlog is almost done.
About 5 years ago I made an XBRL viewer. In a ton of reports I tested the data did not match the paper reports. After ruling out bugs in my own software I went as far as emailing a few companies investor relations departments and never got a response.

I hope things have improved in the years since but I doubt it. Nobody looks at the XBRL its just a regulatory box tick.
Actually you're right. It's pretty simple. It still isn't worth $1B after all the hype with 2 million users.

I finally got an invite and observed the whole app and there is nothing that justifies its valuation other than having celebrity, VC and angel investor endorsement which of whom, have been professionally hyping up the app.

For example, this nonsense I keep seeing: https://mobile.twitter.com/jasonfried/status/135741388036900...

If they bothered to read the T&Cs, you will know that these rooms can also be recorded by others and by Clubhouse themselves for 'law enforcement'. Not so ephemeral.

> What other app allows for this kind of discourse to happen at the current time?

Zello. 150 Million users and has been around for 10 years and has the same concept. There isn't anything new about Clubhouse here other than its interface and its invite system. Once Twitter Spaces launches, then Clubhouse would really need to make money, remove the invite system sooner to open up the platform to more users and have an Android app for its missing Android users.

I am still not convinced that it is worthy of being valued at $1B when its competitors are everywhere.
*Almost every state. Eventually it'll become a pissing contest for which one can hold off on legalization the longest, until they are dragged kicking and screaming.
I wanted to articulate what felt faster

- faster to switch files

- faster to type / input latency

- faster color coding of a file when you open it

- fast autocomplete (not type and wait)

- fast jumping to references (not click wait then new file opens up)

- fast startup time

- fast right clicks (not sure if i imagined it but right clicks felt instantaneous)

Some states will simply not pursue legalization until their voting demographics have turned over sufficiently to elect more progressive representation (and the Marijuana Policy Project, who has championed legalization in many states, has said there are only a few states left where this can be done with a ballot initiative versus state legislature).

For many, they’ll need to vote with their feet and migrate to better states. Or the federal government legalizes it.
Please assume good faith. I do not believe there is a image rehabilitation campaign, nor are nefarious forces trying to sway public opinion late Friday night. Don't waste too many brain cycles chasing ghosts. We all are just people trying to get by in life.

Why not publish yours as well?

For other file systems (not ZFS), spd_readdir.so can offer a good performance boost.

It's probably possible to do the same on ZFS, but CoW certainly makes realizing this concept more difficult.
Sure, I can agree with that somewhat.

Still, it was an one-off thing and I didn't want to turn it into a project. Using a for loop, `curl`, `wkhtmltopdf` and `parallel` eventually did the job.

> In late April 2014, Bain announced he had a precancerous mass in his colon, the first indications of bowel cancer, a condition with which two of his grandparents had also been diagnosed. (wikipedia)

It's good to promote diagnosis, but let's also put this in perspective: he had family history of this kind of cancer. This kind of changes everything when it comes to your personal risk, just like your grand parents having Alzheimer indicate a major risk that you will get it as you age as well.

This is why (good?) doctors also ask for conditions running in families.

I think what these oil companies realized is that they will cater to two personas of their customers. EV and IC vehicles

I think they realized that IC and EV are both not going away soon, so why not keep their customer base instead of other competitors taking them away.

Also, they already have the advantage of real estate. They know that they can add a charging network cheaply in their gas stations than a new player in town building one.

I don't really buy the argument that they can limit supply to increase the price of driving EV.

I recently bought an EV and sold my IC car because it puts a smile on my face when I drive it. It was never a financial decision for me. Plus EV are insanely expensive, most of these people can afford a substantial increase in electricity prices

Like geez, you can buy two IC for one EV. I do hope that EV car prices go down significantly as it seems like a lot of people would want to buy an EV, but the price point is just too much
