> That said, there are likely certain views you have, that you feel you should have the right to express freely that a large group of people feel are equally repugnant and offensive

I highly doubt this. I do not dehumanize others nor believe that likening enslaved races to monkeys is in any way appropriate. Besides, you are discussing free speech here - Dr Seuss in no way had his free speech curtailed. He is dead.

> Freedom of speech provides a natural check and balance by letting the best ideas thrive via an open market of ideas

This is a meaningless feel-goodism.

Freedom of speech protects citizens against government retaliation or censorship for most categories of speech, notably carving out exceptions for calls to violence / treason etc.. Freedom of speech basically means you can say whatever the hell you want if it's not too overtly tearing at the fabric of society.

Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequence; I can say 2+2 = 5 but that doesn't make it smart. People will call me an idiot, and they have that right.

Freedom of speech doesn't protect authors from not "eternally having their works published by their copyright holders even after the author's lifetime has ended", and that is literally the only thing I can see you arguing for here. A publisher who owns the rights to these books has stopped generating more copies of them. What is wrong with that?

> On a personal note, when I see groups banning ideas and views I automatically discredit the group and ideas behind the banning

So, when you see Dr Seuss' publisher stop generating additional copies of books they believe further ideas and sentiments they wish to have no part of - surely, they are free to do this - you are automatically discrediting what group for this banning, exactly?

> HN is mostly Prole-and-proud

Sounds about right. HN is mostly educated in engineering with a smattering of business, both eminently sensible subjects which are too practical to be middle class. There are some pure science/math folks among us, which can be counted as middle class, but they are few and far between.
Honestly, properly configuring, maintaining and scaling Keycloak is an absolute pain in my experience. Keyclaok does not come close to the ease of use of Okta and Auth0 imho
That's actually against the site guidelines, which ask you to "Assume good faith."

The reason is that it's hard if not impossible to accurately assess other commenters' intent, and there's a strong default on the internet to assume bad faith. We all need to consciously counteract that if we're to have substantive, thoughtful discussion.

It's true that some commenters behave abusively in ways that make assuming good faith impossible, but (a) I doubt that was the case here, and (b) the guidelines ask you not to reply in such cases, but rather to flag the comment and/or email hn@ycombinator.com.

Please no. I am glad that steam uses only numbers. That avoids capitalization issues when moving stuff between linux and windows.
The cynic in me is confused. Nvidia isn’t exactly known for making lots of things open source. What’s their angle here? Is the idea to take steam out of projects like TPU by making viable, open-source alternatives?
It is ready, the low throughput is organically priced in by the network, thus the valid usecases are also organically, and "correctly" constrained. On experimental chains you pay a fraction of the cost for transactions, but the risks are unclear and misunderstood.

To answer directly, it's not eBay's decision because eBay is not a single person. I guess it's the CEOs, or someone under them, or maybe the board, or the shareholders.

I don't want to override the decision. But there is a disturbing context to the decision that's worth discussing.

Why are people making these decisions? Why are they coordinated and collective? Who are the beneficiaries?

And have we, as voters, shareholders, etc., put trust in the wrong leaders? Maybe all this crazy stuff professors have been promoting all this time wasn't just for attention. Maybe they meant it and taught their students to do it. And we are now seeing the results.
The thing about an SSG is that it's so trivial to write your own (at least for the basic cases). And then you may well get more benefit after that point from retaining the ability to customize it than you would from having a generalized one that you need to wrestle toward your use-case

It's something that feels highly generic, and so programmers jump on the chance to genericize it, but may not actually be that useful to have as a thing you can grab off the shelf
I wouldn't say you're overthinking it at all! You make an excellent point, and as a game developer it's something I have to consider. Our mission is to craft joy for our players, but I certainly cannot afford to rule out any potential in terms of designing our games to be more engaging.

On the other hand, I've witnessed many instances of gamers who have fallen victim to habit-forming mechanics that continue sinking hours and dollars into a game daily but also say that they no longer truly enjoy the time they spend in that game. There's many aspects that play into that sort of behavior which games can be designed to exploit, not least of which being the sunk cost fallacy and fear of missing out: a player who has reached the endgame might have run out of interesting content to play through but feel obliged to continuously "defend their title". They're encouraged to keep coming back long after it stops being fun by being constantly presented with what appears to be an existential threat to the supremacy they have labored towards.

At that point I think we can safely say that such a game is no longer a positive impact on that person's life.

My way of attempting to ameliorate these sorts of conflicting interests is to structure our organization as a multi-stakeholder cooperative, in a way that gives players meaningful influence over business, design and development decisions.
I really didn't understand this comment, and you didn't expand, so I assumed that it must have been something obvious and I was too insensitive to notice. So I did a survey of the first 20 sites it gave me and try to categorize by "demographic/culture." Here's what I got:

Unknown (math, science etc) 6
Asian 4
Christian 2
Middle America 2
Goth 1
Democrat 1
Irish 1
EU 1
Swiss 1
English 1

So... I'm still in the dark. I guess Asians are overrepresented? But that included several different countries (I could only wrote Korea and China before I started categorizing them together).

Or maybe you decided they were making fun of your demographic in particular, and confirmation bias led you to see only that? Are you seeing "culture war" where there isn't any, or am I still blind?
It may not being marketed directly, but calling something "full self driving" greatly implies that self driving is fully supported in all scenarios. I have not seen any Tesla marketing that says "full self driving, on big roads with clear markings in dry/slightly damp weather".

> But once again these are still speculative, equivalent to Bitcoin or Ethereum when they were just launched.

Yes, and they will compete with eachother and with ETH2.

My personal analysis is that ETH2 will be a failure (coordination problem, too many moving parts, etc), and that one of these 2 will replace ETH - but it's too early to guess which one, because as you said:

> that comes with risks, and as far as I know there are still many that think their system is fundamentally flawed.

I don't get why "Big O" is made out to be this mystical, theoretical thing. It doesn't seem as hard or as important as people make it out to be.

I've been giving what you might call "enrichment" lessons to a friend in lambda school, and half an hour with a makeshift graph in Microsoft Paint ("Quadratic: BAD. Constant and logarithmic: GOOD. Linear: STILL PRETTY GREAT") was all it took. Like, sure, he's not going to be coming up with new compression algorithms any time soon, but...

IMO the stuff that's harder to teach (and to learn!) are things that impact development velocity---how to write maintainable code, how to choose good design (and avoid bad!)---basically, taste.
They could use a scheme like `AppID-name` where `name` is the sanitized lower-cased title, e.g. `50631-hack`. From Steam's perspective it doesn't really make any difference, it could just ignore everything after the dash, but at least it gives the human an idea of what's in there.

Good points and summary. Adding on to that, the following was from the abstract about 2 sentences in. Seems like some users do enjoy jumping straight to the comments!

* Political orientation was correctly classified in 72% of liberal–conservative face pairs, remarkably better than chance (50%), human accuracy (55%), or one afforded by a 100-item personality questionnaire (66%).

* Accuracy was similar across countries (the U.S., Canada, and the UK), environments (Facebook and dating websites), and when comparing faces across samples.

* Accuracy remained high (69%) even when controlling for age, gender, and ethnicity.

That's a different problem, all together unfortunately. I think it is possible but I have not yet migrated that far. I am still in the "choosing a distro" stage (I'm enjoying Pop_OS so far but we'll see). I have read in some comments elsewhere that Steam will download the correct binaries if you can point to the library.

Your link is missing a `/` between `Proton` and `wiki` btw.
"could" is true but irrelevant and therefore implies subtext. I don't think "could" would be much better, it ought to just be re-phrased as a suggestion in the first place.
Free speech is not the right to force others to repeat your speech. It is also not the right to a loudspeaker or megaphone. Free speech gets you the right to say it, but makes no promises about others being forced to listen, forced to spread it for you or forced to repeat it for you. Don't impinge their freedom in the name of your own.
So even filtering for the extremely limited number of things that you allow us to find problematic, by their own admission :
- they know that it's actually probably "working" (lol 72%) because of other biases they didn't take into account
- Ultimately it puts people into 2 bins which are both huge and disparate and reduce complexe multi-dimensional elements to a meaningless binary.

cool cool cool.
I guess they should go ahead and indict Musk and the rest of crypto Twitter too then.
> The theory (I'd prefer the word "hype") and practice of Scrum are two entirely different things. And of course, if and when it all goes wrong, you're just not doing Scrum right.

I'm really struggling with this argument.

So if someone reads a text, picks from it things that he likes, throws away things he doesn't like, tries to apply the result in practice, but without success — how come he gets to blame the original concept rather than his own invention? Why call the method derived via picking, choosing and mixing with bits from other texts by the same name as the original text? What makes people think that they are "doing scrum" when they are not?

Should I write a Manager README?
One problem with CAS systems in general is that they either make restrictive assumptions about the types of algebraic objects, or they require you to provide extremely detailed type information yourself, beyond that which most people are capable of explicitly expressing. There are so many ambiguities and domain-specific assumptions people make when they perform algebraic manipulation that only a very small fraction of people are actually equipped to express. This is especially problematic if you mix multiple kinds of algebraic extensions - for example, I’ve had a hard time getting CAS systems to correctly deal with functions over tensors over Clifford (sub)algebras.

I think the only way you could get something like that to work would be a type system so aggressive that it would turn off most mathematicians, who tend to have a narrow understanding of type theory.
In fact, I'd put it another way. I'm surprised the accuracy was not higher when you ADDED IN the three variables to the 69%.

How is it that you consider only the immediate deaths from the event and neither the follow up casualties, the evacuation measures and everything else which hangs on this? Do your really think your opposite is so stupid? And yes, I did look at the press coverage a lot since I was in Tokyo at that time. But I also looked at it later on and no, I did not think it was the other way around however I'm also not that blind to ignore all the other consequences this catastrophe had for the region and the people who lived/live there.
There were German internments[1] (true not to the same degree and extent) and while Seuss may not have contributed to anti-German propaganda himself (imagine the converse situation of a person of Japanese descent volunteering anti-Japanese caricatures), I assure you we had very good anti-German propaganda as well[2].

As it regards “murder”. I think people get overly excited about nuclear bombs. We Capet bombed Germany and Japan. Japan carpet bombed China. Germany sent over their V1 & V2s. Many more of your ‘civilians’ died in the carpet bombing campaigns. You also forget that in Japan the Emperor was a cult-like hero. The majority would have walked over a cliff for him. It wasn’t a bunch of innocents we were fighting in either theater.

When Robert Downey Jr. did it, the context mattered a lot. It was a commentary race. There was an actual black actor along side him that was basically spelling it all out for the audience.

They were using blackface as a way to talk about race issues rather than the offensive way it has been used in other contexts.

Whether or not that kind of thing would fly today is a different question. I certainly hope that people could look at things holistically and not just have a knee-jerk reaction to something like this. I'm also interested in what black people think about this, because ultimately that's what matters most.
> It’s the ability to quickly share a document with a set of people that you want.

In particular, it lets you do that while maintaining a single source of truth.

It's equally easy to just email people a document. But then if you change the doc, they still have the old version. Maybe they forwarded it on to some other people you don't know about it after making some changes. The next thing you know, there are twenty versions of this file floating around all slightly different and everyone thinks they are on the same page.
being unable to do dynamic dispatch seems like a big show-stopper for distributed/meshed apps, which seems to be the only reason for targeting the BEAM to begin with, no?

This is low-value advice, but I'd add some periods to the copy on your site - right now it feels a little unpolished. Compare to Stripe's homepage (or similar).

E.g.:

"We get you out of multiple systems and spreadsheets
without the cost or feature bloat of the big guys[.]"

"Procoto drives down vendor spend, streamlines the sourcing process, and automates purchasing, contract, and vendor data[.]"

Interesting that this site itself may use one of the described dark patterns. The banner on the main page has options "Got it" and "Learn more". There is no indication as to whether the "Got it" button is taken as consent for tracking, nor is there a "Reject all non-essential tracking" option on the main banner.

Whether or not this site is compliant depends on whether the "Got it" button is taken as affirmative consent for non-essential tracking or not.
Control, as discussed in the article. You have to distribute a protein via diffusion through the blood. You can't drive it to the site of a tumor. Also, the robots are not that small.
I'm a big fan of the genre, played at least one of the Wing Commander games a while after it came out, and I think Tie Fighter also. I never understood the appeal compared to say, Star Raiders or the Star Wars vector arcade game.

Maybe I was just getting too old for video games, but I played Oolite (never played Elite when it was current) for a little while when I was between jobs at 40 and loved it.

There's evidence of inheritability of political orientation, since it is tied to personality traits. Given that, it makes sense that it is possible to predict political orientation through looks alone. After all, looks are also inherited traits.

The article gets into this a little bit. They are able to predict traits like intelligence and honesty by looks alone.
I am sorry to hear about your pain. No idea why you are being downvoted. I also have a transsexual experience. It goes a lot deeper than 3rd party cookies and ad networks. Private companies like Lexis Nexis have vast databases of aggregated and collated personal identity information. That is only one place that shady companies like those people search sites get their info from. This is to say nothing of credit, bank reports, voter rolls, and if you got a new job that used certain firms to do a background check on you. It should be illegal. I plan to use Privacy Duck although it is expensive ($1000 per year).
What you're describing is using regex to _lex_ html, not parse it. The parser is easy to build once you have a lexer (after all most of XML's unpleasantness comes from escaping). It still isn't the same thing as parsing with regular expressions.

Similarly you can't parse S-expressions with regular expressions, but if you have the lexer (e.g. with `lex` or other languages' equivalent) then the parser on top of it becomes absolutely trivial.

I don't care about production or performance much; I care about data analysis and machine/deep learning for NLP. Whatever lets me use the best language and packages is best and so far it's Julia with the ecosystems and tools from Python and R.

I'm very certain that you can just import the underlying packages directly but this way is easiest, especially since I'm not familiar with R.
