Of course there has been talk on both sides of the aisles (especially the past 6 months or so) to remove 230 totally or update it so that moderating speech makes you lose 230 protections - the argument that 'we don't write the words our users do so we aren't responsible" - the 'dumb pipe' defense, starts to erode when you censor some things you don't like - especially if you censor them before they are posted - from what I understand.

Of course some portals have already destroyed thier dumb pipe defense all on their own, aka cloudflare -

This leads to interesting situations where I believe most users do not know that their assumed private speech is being monitored, censored, judged, reported, deplatformed etc..

IANAL, dr., etc - anyhow I think it's a fluid situation currently.

You read that correctly. The OP said clearly he has no intention to do documentation or testing, meetings, or much of anything other than just write code for about 40 hours and then quit.
No.

Also, the UK can probs stop any transfer of ARM IP/Company/Etc. if they wanted (idk the laws tho).
So, this is for a few reasons.

Syntax is a skill floor, but it's not anywhere close to a skill ceiling.

If you want rapid-fire example of the various forms a given language commonly uses, I recommend X in Y minute guides. Those show off the various bits of syntax for a given programming language, though without rigorously defining them as such.

Part of the reason that programming syntax is usually taught by example, rather than by formalism is that the formalisms for programming syntax, well, look like this: (cribbing from wikipedia).

program = 'PROGRAM', white_space, identifier, white_space,
'BEGIN', white_space,
{ assignment, ";", white_space },
'END.' ;
identifier = alphabetic_character, { alphabetic_character | digit } ;
number = [ "-" ], digit, { digit } ;
string = '"' , { all_characters - '"' }, '"' ;
assignment = identifier , ":=" , ( number | identifier | string ) ;
alphabetic_character = "A" | "B" | "C" | "D" | "E" | "F" | "G"
| "H" | "I" | "J" | "K" | "L" | "M" | "N"
| "O" | "P" | "Q" | "R" | "S" | "T" | "U"
| "V" | "W" | "X" | "Y" | "Z" ;
digit = "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9" ;
white_space = ? white_space characters ? ;
all_characters = ? all visible characters ? ;

Can you take that grammar and write 10 examples of valid statements from it, with no other context?

vs, if I give you

PROGRAM ASSIGNMENTS
BEGIN
MYSTRING := "A STRING";
MYNUMBER := 123;
END

That gives you a much better flavor from looking at things.

Ultimately, most programming languages should have defined grammars in their docs somewhere, but most devs use them by intuition, rather than formally.

The other thing, as well, is that it's one you get past grammar as a primary concern that you gain true fluency. And there are a lot of things that are higher level than grammar that can aid/hurt a program much more than the grammar constructs (like various patterns, know algorithms, schemes of organization for different types of projects, and so on). A mostly human-usable grammar is table-stakes these days.

If you have a specific language you want examples or a grammar on, let me know, and I'll see if I can find it.

You would need to extract 814,891,540 gallons of water to equal 1 inch of rainfall on just the city of San Francisco.

Some basic napkin math says at normal temp and humidity that is roughly 84 cubic miles of air you'd need to reduce to 0% humidity. Assuming the process isn't instant, you couldn't contain that volume of air in a structure humans know how to build. You'd also have to build massive air inlet pipes going 5 miles in each direction just to be able to circulate it into the machinery.

Edit: the comment I replied to was talking about areas with "humidity but not rain." I was just pointing out trying to replace rain is an insurmountable problem. You can do all sorts of things to optimize water usage, but that isn't the point. I picked San Francisco because it is a scale most people on HN can understand, but it is still tiny compared to farmland in the central valley.

Yeah, and in the part of that second link that directly addresses the question:

> *Will the FSD Computer make my car fully autonomous?*

> Not yet. All Tesla cars require active driver supervision and are not autonomous. With the FSD Computer, we expect to achieve a new level of autonomy as we gain billions of miles of experience using our features. The activation and use of these features are dependent on achieving reliability far in excess of human drivers, as well as regulatory approval, which may take longer in some jurisdictions.

That clearly states that there is still a technical challenge to overcome which is prior to any regulatory issues.

(Potentially apocryphal or true for other countries) I remember a Romanian developer telling me that in the days of communism (as well as shortly thereafter) computer time was so rationed that students learned to program almost entirely on pen and paper and the instructor would grade it before even putting it into a computer.

He said that even to this day, programmers in Romania still have a deep emphasis on book learning and an intolerance for bugs or mistakes.
A big EU bank that I have my account (and an online account) with, cannot change customers OTP mobile phone number if they no longer have access to the old number (they require to send an OTP when number is being changed). The reason I know this is after several visits and calls over many months, all with a lot of effort put in. I am assuming they have zero CRUD that doesn't send OTP to the old number. A bank with billions should know better.
I've only seen the anime, but the lesson I got from it was: "Society requires many people who are good at different things to work together, and your value should come from how much you improve the world."

The villains decided fighting with psychic power was the best thing, therefore they were the best humans. Mob thought helping people and living your life was best, so he idolized his master and the bodybuilding club.
I would go further: "passwords are ancient and (should be) obsolete".

If you can don't rely on passwords, use hardware security keys and protocols like U2F and other FIDO2 related protocols. Sure you might still have a pin, but now you rely much less on it so it can be much simpler.

If you can't use word phrases instead of passwords, e.g. 4 randomly selected words, and yes randomly selected for the user, not choose by the user. But with a way to "re-roll" when setting the pass phrase.

As a side effect of being more secure (then normal remembered passwords) and easier to remember. As a benefits they are also easier to insert on phones with swipe keyboards and have some nice tricks wrt. internationalization you could use. (Make sure they
still work with password managers.)

Practically maybe not possible currently, but if you already rely on a password manager there is technical very little reason not to replace passwords with a U2F/FIDO like process connecting to the password manager. This might be less secure than a HSK but still nice. Ah, anyway that's currently not a think.

Lastly if your service isn't generally "security sensitive" and login sessions tend to be long consider login links send to your password reset email. Especially if combined with password-less fido auth based on the browser + TPM this can be a nice approach (you use password-reset-like links to setup password-less fido auth on the given device).

It's useful to be able to talk about COGS, even in general terms, with a business. The first example given in this post, the two businesses with the same revenue/loss but different COGS is a great example of why.

I think another example of why is the move towards subscription pricing. Hear me out...

In my experience (as a consumer), subscription pricing makes the most sense when there's a direct correspondence to COGS. Example: Dropbox, they're storing stuff for me over time, no one ever suggests Dropbox should be a one off purchase. Conversely, it always seems to be controversial when there isn't a direct correspondence to COGS, for example a piece of desktop software.

Developers would likely say that support is classed as COGS, but I think that's quite debatable, most companies wouldn't class it as such. Then they might claim that upgrades to support new OSes are COGS, but that's not really true, you can sell upgrades. Maybe these are true, but they are certainly less convincing to consumers than times when there's an obvious ongoing cost.

I wonder if developers looking at subscription pricing should be looking at how they can frame the pricing as clearly corresponding to a cost incurred?

There's a political aspect. The judge has a real impact supporting a pro intellectual property agenda.

There seems to be a faction that supports similar interpretations for intellectual property rights - perhaps with the hope of founding similar fortunes?

Agreed, which is why “Hang Mike pence” is not sufficient. On it’s own, it doesn’t make the distinction between two.

If you want to make the case that assassination was being called for, you need to quote something else.

> The modern piano mitigates this by having the hammers strike strings at a position that avoids exciting the 5th harmonic...

I think it's actually the 7th harmonic that pianos avoid, if I remember correctly. (I guess one could verify this by measuring the hammer position on a piano string and figure out if it's hitting the node at 1/5 of the string length or 1/7th).

This random google result agrees with me:

https://pages.mtu.edu/~suits/badnote.html

I have a theory that pianos and guitars have become the dominant musical instruments of the last hundred years or so simply because you can get away with mis-tuning them and they still sound pretty good. (I once had the opportunity to play a 15-tone equal tempered guitar, and it still sounded good, which led me to believe that you can get away with almost anything with a guitar.) Which isn't to say that guitars don't sound better in just intonation, they do.

On the other hand organs and accordions, for instance, sound amazing in just intonation but not nearly so good in 12-tone equal temperament. The notes (especially thirds and sixths) clash with each other too much. It's tolerable, but not great.

I've been working with a group of people converting guitars to 41 tone equal temperament; they have a nicer third (off by about 5 cents instead of about 15) and a closer 4th and 5th (off by about half a cent instead of 2) and can approximate 7-limit just intonation intervals pretty closely. The trick to make it playable is to omit half the frets, so it's fretted for 20.5-tone equal temperament, and any notes not available on one string are available on the string next to it. It sounds like it shouldn't work, but it does.

Metal is a good fit for the M1 GPU (since the GPU was essentially designed to run it). There isn't a need for a lower level API than Metal.

Is this the case? The NYT seemed much more reasonable on the Russia stuff than say, most cable news.

> the Times basically ended up apologising and saying they wouldn't do it again.

This did not happen. I'm assuming you're referring to this passage from an article two years later:

> The key fact of the article — that the F.B.I. had opened a broad investigation into possible links between the Russian government and the Trump campaign — was published in the 10th paragraph.

> A year and a half later, no public evidence has surfaced connecting Mr. Trump’s advisers to the hacking or linking Mr. Trump himself to the Russian government’s disruptive efforts. But the article’s tone and headline — “Investigating Donald Trump, F.B.I. Sees No Clear Link to Russia” — gave an air of finality to an investigation that was just beginning.

> Democrats say that article pre-emptively exonerated Mr. Trump, dousing chances to raise questions about the campaign’s Russian ties before Election Day.

> Just as the F.B.I. has been criticized for its handling of the Trump investigation, so too has The Times.

This is not "apologising and saying they wouldn't do it again."

I agree that the term "conspiracy theory" is not used in a balanced way. Mainstream democrat theories that turn out to be without merit just stop being reported on (such as the Steele Dossier), whereas theories from either left or right fringe generally are called conspiracy theories.
As the name suggests, cosmetic damage is a kind of damage. If I key your car, it's still damage and thus vandalism irrespective of whether I (or anyone else) finds the result to be an improvement.

I think we are somewhat in agreement, Elm is certainly Evan's language and framework, and if you live within the boundaries of it you'll have a pleasant experience.

I have read all of the bad experience posts on Elm because I've spent a while working with it now and it is always valuable to see someone else's perspective on it. In practice the pain points either haven't really been a problem for me, or I've found a satisfactory way around them using web components, ports, code generation, or other ways.

My experience is just more anec-data and I know it won't represent everyone's experience. I'd encourage anyone hesitant about Elm to give it a go, it's been a joy to work with.
