I've always felt this to be a net negative, and it puts me off Flutter more than anything else.

I know it has no bearing on the app developer or the end user, but there's something about pouring thousands of person-hours into making a facsimile of something that already exists (especially something that has already had thousands of person-hours put into usability and accessibility) that feels so wasteful. It's silly I know, but it just doesn't sit right with me.
You seem to have go it, the suggestion seems is to search all possible programs sorted by length.

"Start with the shortest program", a null instruction, which does not meet the criteria, "and complexity it iteratively" by appending new instruction in a breadth first manner "spanning a tree of all possible program."

You're correct that the first program that this search finds will satisfy K(X, T) but may not satisfy KT or kST.
Owner is a relevant point. If you funnel shareholder/co-owner money to you that's a problem, if you entirely own the company that argument goes away.
Why would you want to do this? I will warn my children (when they are old enough) about pedophiles and let them know how pedophiles might try and manipulate then, by pretending to be friends or by threatening them or even by convincing them to send naked pictures and blackmailing them. I will let my kids know that no matter how deep they go they can always, and should as soon as needed, come to me or their mother for help. I don't see the need to spy on them or see what they might be searching for or looking at.

I could see this changing if I notice bad behavior. If they're hanging out with bad influences or ordering drugs online or something I might intervene electronically. I'm still undecided about whether to enforce electronics limits (I use mine a lot). It doesn't seem like you should default to intrusive parenting though.
>This is probably similar to the posts that regularly do the rounds claiming Facebook are asserting ownership of any photos or text you post to Facebook

Maybe it's true that FB don't own these right but they certainly did try. I recall a huge user campaign against Facebook who were brining out a new update to their ToS regarding photo ownership back in circa 2011. They ultimately backed down.

I can't find it after Googling though.
Well, US coastal tech seems to pay (almost) twice as much as Canadian cities, due to various reasons. That's a tough incentive to beat.

I guess they're anthropomorphizing "the industry", treating all of them as responsible for what any of them do. But to steelman this viewpoint, industry should be unsurprised that consumers are filtering out UTM in the process of filtering everything, just as consumers should be unsurprised that the industry does what it does.

I recall experimenting with similar approaches about 2 decades ago; depending on your gestures you can actually simplify a lot:

- normalize the draw height/width

- use polar coordinates before normalizing

- normalize the length of the drawn path

- DAG to recognize shapes faster, using partial paths

- only taking into account corners with angles over a certain treshold

- ...

The possibilities are endless, and this is a good exercise to explain that slight alterations on your problem space can have a huge impact on your solution space.

I think an automatic alert (which can be set to ignore by the user) which flags such links, and offers the option to turn on a config flag which enables URL manipulation like this, would be a good compromise.

Hi Abhilash,

Due to success, we are looking for extra hands and thinking ability to expand our organization. If you like we can have a call to briefly discuss your current work situation and the possibilities within our company.

Below this message you will find the links to our websites, but just a quick note about us:

GUTS is a ticketing company and also the showcase of our technology (GET Protocol) that is built on Blockchain and we implement worldwide at other ticketing organizations. Sometimes people also know us from the ICO that took place three years ago, the name of our crypto is GET protocol.

So if you get excited about Blockchain, Crypto, new techniques and improving the world / ticketing industry, it makes sense to have a quick call :).

I'm lookin forward to your reply!

Best,
Lars

You do know that Android devices now receive regular security updates and system component updates beside OS version updates?

That said, small storage used to cause all kind of problems in Androids too (in particular Sony Ericsson devices). IIRC it also caused some issues for Windows Phones updating from 7 to 7.1 to 8 and finally 10.
I don’t see my red beard on that. Please address.

I would love to see an 'educational' mode on this - rather than just removing the tracking elements, put some info on-screen that shows what was removed and why, so people can use this as a tool to learn more about what types of tracking exist online and how common it is. Hopefully that would lead to a more knowledgeable end user community online and we can have more nuanced discussions in the future about where tracking is benign, and where it is not.
>> Constraint programming was much more like an AI to me than any actual AI, since I just described the constraints and my programs solved itself.

Theorem proving and SAT solving are classic AI subjects, don't forget. If we don't think of them this way today that's the usual "if it works, it's not AI" paradox (it's got a name I think, but I don't remember it).

I'd go as far as to say that theorem proving is honest-to-god AI, much more so than pattern recognition. After all, we know many animals that can recognise sights and sounds, but we only know of one animal that can state and prove theorems.

How to Be Excellent
What's that quote about not mistaking incompetence for malice?

Also, there is always about 10 times more legacy shit than decent new software in any org. That's the ultimate goal for many companies: not even good (let along best) quality but essential because we built something a decade ago to go with it and no one wants to undo all that convoluted undocumented bs. It's sad and I think tech people like me don't "get" it. But it's actually a much better business model than making good software and competing on price/quality.

I worked for plenty of good and shitty software companies. I've never seen bribery. I have seen shitty companies win because they're bigger or older or what was used last time or more polished at speaking to execs who know nothing. One place I worked at made most of its sales because we were a subsidiary of a stock exchange. So people assumed we were safe and competent (we weren't). "No one gets fired for choosing IBM" AND "No one gets a bonus for choosing something better but less well known, quite the opposite, they have to justify it"
This is so ironic. I write this message while being chased by colleagues who need me to do something for them that is very important to them but has no merit in my manager's eyes.

Did we forget the countless services Facebook and Google have dramatically altered or killed over the years that can never be forked or restarted elsewhere because they are proprietary?

The only services we should assume are reliable are the ones that directly generate profits. I expect neither company will shut down their ad selling systems but everything else I would not consider reliable.

"The money is good" isn't an excuse in any case because Google is no longer paying top of market, and Facebook is getting outbid by several other companies with better reputations on privacy and security.

Choosing to take less money by working at Google is an ego play. It's not the only place with scaling challenges, good working environment and high pay. There are dozens of others.
Maybe prompt the user with a "use clean" or "use as-is" button (and "cancel").

I do wonder if it’s possible that vaccines that are designed to make the body produce certain parts of the spike protein could lead to prion diseases accidentally. Are we sure of the proteins coded for and also that this coding can’t produce misfolded proteins? It’s pretty unlikely but also we don’t have long term testing of these proteins in the body.

When you have to make hard choices in life (staying with a partner, maintaining a relationship with a toxic family member, supporting a friend that's behaving in a way you don't approve), it's easy to be on the fence since you will have arguments for and against the decision.

However, once we choose, we tend to incorporate that choice into our narrative as the solution that makes sense, and reinforce it to the point that we end up forgetting there was once an alternative. "I left my wife, it was miserable, I'm so glad I left", etc.

It is good to not forget that there was once a choice to make, the choice wasn't easy, and there were arguments in the other side that could have won.

These just don't cross any reasonable risk/reward threshold.

Multitasking is more like beeing in two meeting simultaneously and taking notes on both, writing a functional specification for a project while talking to your spouse about the weekly shopping list, talking with your coworker about a problem in a codebase while you work in _another_ codebase, trying to fix a production server while watching for cars on the road your kids are playing...

Maybe you have two sides - most issues do - maybe there is only one. But exposure to both is helpful regardless. On most issues we haven’t considered both sides, and only have weak thoughts - listening forces us to think. In other cases you can ratify your beliefs, and is something you may change your mind. Regardless, it’s better that we have seen a wide range of opinions.

Whenever a topic about something that could potentially destroy humanity comes up (say, climate issues), there is always some comment that makes a reasonable argument of why things are not as bad as they seem.

This never happens when prions are the topic.
Welcome to the old boys network, same as it ever was. This isn't marketing, its corruption. The advantage of "knowing the right people" in this case was probably half of some of these companies value. You can say its always been that way and you'd be right, but I think its wrong, and ultimately bad for both customers and people who are forced to work with poor and broken tools.
Both problems are caused by having a corruptible, warmongering, spying and controlling government.

I don't want the government to intervene between me and a drug dealer to prevent me from buying what I want.

I don't want the government to spend billions of taxpayers money (and incurring debt - and devaluing my money) killing dudes in the middle east. There were definitely economical and geopolitical reasons to do the war on terror, but that's not something I wanted. 9/11 was merely the reason to attack a oil rich country.

I don't think there is anything racist with any of these wars.

Black people are disproportionally poorer and that's why they're overrepresented in drug related crimes and jail convictions. This happened mainly because stable families were destroyed in the 70s thanks to welfare policies. I'm not the best at explaining this kind of stuff, listen to Thomas Sowell for more.

I'm against prosecution for any drug related crime - but if drugs were legal, I'm sure a portion of poor people would move to whatever shady business they can do as long as they can survive and conviction rate wouldn't change much. Maybe street scams, maybe stealing, maybe begging.

Sure, go ahead and push for an end on the war on drugs, but you have to solve poverty and stable families as well if you want to see meaningful outcomes.
At most it might have been a precursor to SARS-Cov-2, but it's unlikely to be the same agent. We've seen how wildly virulent that variant is; there's no way I can see that that virus could have been found in the wild in a city like Beijing and not cause the same problems we saw in Wuhan two months later.

The third party doctrine in the US also means that this data is accessible without a warrant from the provider, if the provider turns it over on a request. The fact that it's your location doesn't matter, it's the provider's data to do with as they wish (including rat you out to police fishing expeditions) if they feel like it.

Then again, anyone who has location services on systemwide on an iOS or Android device is sending this log to Apple/Google anyway (because location services transmits all of the visible Wi-Fi APs to Apple/Google to improve location).

I don't really know enough about what happened to have an opinion on it, and neither do you, but the media's told you to hate him, so here we are I guess.

Moving on, what I actually said, and what I actually meant, was that those laws are incredibly vague and have been used to convict more or less everything under the sun except actual wire or mail frauds.

If a conviction involves only wire, mail, and money laundering charges then it is because the only guilt that could be proven was axiomatic.

Pardon me for pausing a moment to ponder before picking up a stone and joining you.
I don't think it's that bad. Being the chosen one is harder, but making connections is way easier.

Would you say the same thing for a GoPro?
It could be a better machine, which can be improved in several ways, including adding flying capabilities for trading roadways for airways (cheaper and much more space) or going directly to your home in a tensegrity sphere [1], or aquatic vehicles for communities in the ocean (greatly expanding living spaces available as well).

But I think one of the major shifts was from using a living creature to using a machine. Perhaps, with advances in bio-engineering, it could go the other way? Perhaps we could design very efficient animals for transport, including flying, that would double as family pets? And instead of using petrol or chemicals for fuel, you could just feed them the leftovers from your family meals. Thus, it would help reduce food waste, have easy to obtain fuel, and provide a ready-made friend for the lonely.

I'm disappointed to find somebody so woefully misinformed about GDPR on HN.

GDPR only relates to personal data. The data discussed here clearly isn't personal by any stretch of the imagination. This is the same mentality that thinks ordinary website cookies fall under the GDPR. They don't, unless you are using them to track me or identify me (advertisers take a bow), in which case, you need to ask my permission to do so. And so you should.

Let these people fix climate change then.

Sarcasm aside, it must be boring working in a place where no problem is ever too hard.
We're overrepresented in poverty and crime, so it's reasonable that police officers would be biased against black people.

I definitely get stopped more often than my white friends (albeit it changes based on the country). I've been asked several times by police officers in Europe whether I was an immigrant from North Africa with the implication I was dealing drugs.

A lot of north africans immigrants in the country where I was actually deal drugs and I look like I'm from North Africa, so it makes sense for police officers to question me more.

This is not systemic racism, this is recognising patterns, this is an explicit bias.

I can't find a single law discriminating on people's skin color: that's why I think there is no systemic racism.
