> Mormons end up in these agencies for perfectly logical reasons. The disproportionate number of Mormons is usually chalked up to three factors: Mormon people often have strong foreign language skills, from missions overseas; a relatively easy time getting security clearances, given their abstention from drugs and alcohol; and a willingness to serve.

Sounds like a no-brainer indeed.
What's wrong with selling and owing a stock?
Some of these recipes seem decent if you're already somewhat experienced and have developed cook's intuition. Otherwise they're way too vague. For instance, the chicken parm recipe:

- There should be a photo of how to slice the chicken breast. Saying "through their width" isn't good enough. I had to explain what "lengthwise" was once because my friend cut all the vegetables the exact opposite of it.

- Pound with what? A lot of people will come up with very bad answers to this question.

- How much flour? How much egg? I'll bet that plenty of beginners will use a tablespoon of flour or a singular egg

- Ditto with oil. Beginners do not know how much oil is necessary to fry stuff

- How high heat? You probably want to turn down the heat after the oil starts smoking.

- Is there a single mention of adding salt? Sounds like a pretty bland recipe

I don't mean to be too harsh but recipes are hard. There's a reason why professional recipe developers have developed certain standards like measurements, terms (folding batter, shimmering oil, etc.), and development procedures (cross testing).
The only thing that’s missing for me is pictures of each step, and final dish. Why photos? When I’m doing something for the first time I want to see if I fucked up along the way. :-)
Title is a metaphor stretched well beyond sense.
The article (what little is of it) is about trying to make your data less accessible and useful to adtech.
Some comments on newly-released YouTube videos will restate the title of the video at the time the comment was made simply to annotate that fact for future viewers, and such comments are often highly upvoted.

An interesting reactionary adaptation to this "temporary sensational title" exploit.
In the last 2 cities that I've lived in (Washington DC and Santa Monica) leases default to month-to-month after the lease reaches term.

For example, if you signed a 1 year lease, you are required to pay monthly for that entire year or face still penalties. But once you reach the end of your 1 year lease, your rental goes month-to-month. That implies that the rental rate stays the same (unless sufficient notice is given by the landlord, generally 30 or 60 days prior to the end of the 1 year lease). Furthermore, if you want to vacate, you have to provide a certain amount of notice (generally 30 days).

The key difference is whether rent control is in play there. In my Santa Monica apartment it was in play and the rent could only raise once per year and there was a maximum percentage increase allowable per year.

In Washington DC the vast majority of apartments are not under rent control. Consequently, the apartment legally has to default to month-to-month, but it doesn't have to stay the same rate. Generally what that means is that the landlord, 60 days before the end of the 1 year lease, will provide the tenant a new rate sheet with a monthly price is they want a 1-month lease, a different monthly price for a 6-month lease, and a different monthly price for another year lease. The 1-month lease price is generally MUCH MUCH higher than the new 1-year lease. That incentivizes the tenant to sign a longer term agreement and provide the landlord certainty of occupancy.
It’s just curry. No need to freak out.

> That is, even if Rust had a monad trait, that does not mean that Try and Future could both implement it. This is because, in Haskell, these things have the same signatures. In Rust, they do not have the same signature. For reference:

This is nonsense; Try and Future are not the same thing in Haskell, there are plenty of functions you can only call with one or the other.

The point of the monad abstraction is to abstract over the part that is the same, mostly the function which Rust calls and_then:

pub fn and_then<F, B>(self, f: F) -> AndThen<Self, B, F>
where
F: FnOnce(Self::Item) -> B,
B: IntoFuture<Error = Self::Error>,
Self: Sized,

pub fn and_then<U, F>(self, op: F) -> Result<U, E>
where
F: FnOnce(T) -> Result<U, E>,

Obviously these signatures aren't quite identical, but they're actually even more similar than I thought; AndThen<Self, B, F> is a subtype of `impl Future<B, Self::Error>`, and the fact that there's no IntoResult seems like plumbing rather than anything fundamental. So if we could write an interface like:

trait Monad<M<*>> {
pub fn and_then<A, B>(self: M<A>, f: F) -> impl M<B>
where
F: FnOnce(A) -> M<B>
}

then these both conform to that - in the first case with M=Future<Error=self::E> and A=Self::Item, in the second case with M=Result<Err=E> and A=T.

Yes, there are low-level things you might want to do with Future or Result that you can't do via the monad interface - just as with any other high-level interface. But having the high-level interface available makes the simple, common cases a lot easier. I don't know what these "real, practical problems are", but they're certainly not at the syntactic/interface level.
I think user written, three sentence summaries for hacker news posts would be nice. I like that I can submit random interesting articles here, but sometimes a bit of context is necessary to get others engaged.
"Why is electricity so hard to understand" has a first line.

It tells you that it's not an article. It's a crapload of unedited notes I scribbled down in random order on little scraps of paper back in 1988. You complain it has no style? IT'S NOT FOR OTHERS TO READ! (I keep hiding the file to avoid this problem, changing the filename, but people keep finding it and re-posting it here.)

Some of them tend to enrage people, because:

prove their worth by fighting back.
- Piet Hein.

I find that people having long-standing physics misconceptions will fight like fury to preserve them against change.

Ugh ok. and you shouldn’t judge those that choose less wealth for some other optimization? You’re the one that called me short sighted and rigid. Perhaps people who don’t optimize for wealth simply don’t care?

I’m not sure how much further I can discuss this? If you’re happy optimizing for wealth, good for you. I’m not sure how that makes anyone short sighted and rigid? Short sighted and rigid for not choosing your optimization? Doesn’t that make you short sighted and rigid? Whatever, do your thing- but please don’t think the people of x country are stupid or whatever because they don’t choose what you do. Come on.

I was a professional chef for 17 years, 11 in Michelin star restaurants and 6 as a private yacht chef. I used Cooks Illustrated America's Test Kitchen's[0] cookbooks on the yacht, mostly The Best Recipe. [1] That set of recipes was perfect for what I was doing and freed me from having to think about what to make. There are was so much available I was doing a different dish every night and day for months on end. I always enjoy doing stuff I haven't done before. Bobbing around in the ocean one week in from the last supermarket and another week before access to another decent one, it is nice to have a reliable source of new recipes to plan with. What is really important is that it is one thing that every recipe in a cookbook works, often they don't, and it is another thing that not only does every recipe work but they always have fantastic results. More or less that set of cookbooks made my life so easy, I found a new hobby on the yacht writing code. As for a monthly source, Cook Illustrated and Cooking Light are my favorite sources. As a private chef, I can't make restaurant food everyday for my clients because restaurant food is more or less an unhealthy drug that makes people fat so I'd use Cooking Light for inspiration although the recipes are not as guaranteed for perfect results as the Cooks Illustrated recipes.

That doesn't help much if IP addresses are randomly distributed, as they are in a lot of our use cases. You use tries generally to do range and prefix lookups, not so much as a storage trick.

My "commercial display" series 55" 4k LG dumb tv from a few years ago (in Canada) was ~$150 cheaper than its featurewise-near-equivalent (except the smarts) Consumer-oriented smart TV at the time ($900 vs $1050 iirc).

However I don't know if that product series has been updated / still available, and it may have been Canada only. But I'm not sure "commercial displays" are actually more expensive -- it might depend on the type and intended use-case.
I'm confused what your plan of attack is.

Because simply querying the database a billion times and replacing SSN with 1, 2 etc. is never going to work in any reasonably secure environment. Queries are logged and people will know if you're trying to brute force a table.

If anyone reading wants a place to start, I think I started by realizing that I needed to write a lot more code than I wanted to attach my identity to. Start by writing the code that you would like to not have to be responsible for as if you expect someone else to be happy to take over, or at least not stressed or grossly disappointed.

Then if you can figure out that it's all 'our code', you can work from there.
How you liking yours ? Got the rears or sub as well ?
Many types of processing on small data sets are fine. Or lots of small data sets in parallel.

You could run statistics on data or do a grid-based simulation.

Running a neural net would be almost trivial.

General purpose code is extremely difficult to adapt, since it loves to branch based on data.
Perhaps we’ll figure out how to piggyback off that connection to get free internet.

I know you weren't trying to suggest this, but A/B testing doesn't necessarily imply evilness, of course.

It's definitely evil in the parent commenter's and the article's cases, but if it's testing color schemes for your blog or a signup flow for your productivity app, there's a pretty good chance it's fine (depending on the underlying ethics of the blog/app).

But I overwhelmingly agree that ubiquitous or bureaucratized doesn't mean "not/no longer evil". If anything, there's possibly a light positive correlation. That comment's espousing one of the worst and most cynical philosophies I've ever encountered.

There might even be some natural/game theoretic phenomena at play here, too. Information wants to be free, and evil wants to be normalized.

"based and redpilled" is quite literally the opposite of "cringe and bluepilled" in common usage. Based definitely is not a synonym for cringe. It often shows approval of some sort, or being impressed when someone acts like a "mad lad".
I'm sure interpretations differ, but yours seemed a bit too far off the mark.
Some of the listed uses are not about saving time or energy - though admittedly most were, and seem excessive to me as well.

The automated lights and blinds in the morning, for example, can for some improve sleep quality compared to a standard alarm. Then again this would probably be better as dumb blinds and lights on timers.
For practical applications you can do better if you allow some information leakage or multiple rounds of communication. People play various tricks. What kind of leakage is acceptable depends on the application.

Update 3/10:

After more dialog, the acquirer updated the offer with a $50K rev share minimum at the end of year one and $25K rev share minimum at the end of year two with the sentence "assuming you are still employed with [acquirer]". The base salary still remains $25K lower than my current base salary.

Also, my current employer just informed me that they will not be providing / continuing my pay during my paternity leave; I will just receive FMLA coverage and PFL through the state of California. Due to this, I did ask the acquirer for part-time work so we identified a project I can work on but they haven't provided any payment / salary information.

Sure if there was an objective way to evaluate this, then you're right.

But there isn't. We THINK that there is, but there is a ton of subjective bias along the way from who recruiters contact, the resume screen, all the way through the interview.

And the whole point of gender discrimination is that "on average" women's technical skills and experience are undervalued.

That's the premise people are making when they discuss discriminations. Now, you might disagree, and then we can get into the details of why this happens, which parts are conscious and which parts are unconscious. But what's happening is not how you're describing it.

Slight differences. Square and Stripe extend the credit themselves, where Pipe is acting as a securitization platform for the committed revenue.

It’s all credit card revenue factoring essentially, but the nuance is important depending on if you’re the business, the acquirer, or an investor, what your borrowing cost or yield expectations are, and if this type of financing product (if you’re the business) is a better deal than going to get a loan or diluting your equity.

To me, I think there’d have to be a bigger sell... as a buyer, why would I rent office space in someone’s house instead of an actual office? Ok, maybe cheaper. Ok but what about benefits? Is it just a desk in a room? What about food, the environment, etc? And why would I rent space in someone’s house instead of just paying for a bigger place on my own? I get the idea maybe you’re visiting somewhere and need somewhere to work but then I’d have a hotel or an office space wherever I’m visiting because I’m visiting their office.

To me, I’m not seeing it as a customer or as a seller. Selling just an office desk space is like selling 40sqft of rental space but on an hourly basis but without all the benefits of a large office environment. I don’t see it. I’d probably just rather setup a desk in my own bedroom than commute to someone else’s house and rent a desk in their spare room.

I use a 5k monitor hooked up to a Linux desktop that I built. Works great, and all the components are dumb. The day they bake ads into all computer monitors is the day I move off grid and start taking permaculture farming seriously.
They could potentially extend SGX type mechanism to execute more complex data operators within an enclave and give out only results that are at least k-anonymous or allow decrypted results only if it is explicitly allowed when enclave is created. And of course all this has to be implemented in an isolated hardware so that classic chip timing/race attacks cannot steal secrets like it is possible from within the enclaves with SGX today.
I looked at traffic pricing (the most outrageous item among the big three cloud providers).

Outbound traffic from US/Europe is $0.0085 USD per GB. That's roughly an order of magnitude cheaper. Also, 10 TB free will be enough for many small use cases. The billing based on source instead of destination also makes the cost a bit more predictable.

That's just list price, of course, and it's still well above e.g. Hetzner, but it's a reasonable price.
