As the sibling comment says, I mean you can access them from several countries.

Collateral requirements vary by asset and account country according to national law. Generally it’s 50% LTV on equity collateral but leverage can be higher depending on the case.

I paid for a house with their margin to avoid triggering gains on long term positions, while waiting for some locked up options to liquidate.

Revenue is a function of views, not uploads.
Also odd is that OP uses the term 'seizure' but I think he means 'seized-up', like an engine that wont run. He explictly mentions at one point that the EEG didnt show anything like epilepsy.

But then he says things like "I'd work for 30 minutes, seize, sleep for 2 hours, then work, then seize, then sleep, ad nauseum."

If he was actually having siezures (absence seziures or focal seizures or myoclonic seizures or tonic clonic seizures) then presumably the EEG would have picked that up and he would have been diagnosed with and treated for epilepsy. At least I hope so because Tonic Clonic seizures (for example) can be extremely dangerous if they are uncontrolled.

Anyway I'm glad he has been able to get back to doing things in a way that feels sustainable and enjoyable.
No, it's not nuanced.

The discussion stops being nuanced as soon as the company starts the discussion with a threat such as "will cooperate with github.com and Chinese government to physically find you and stop the illegal use of licensed content".

At the point the email in the Github issue was written the API was public. It was removed after the repository owner responded, as can be seen on the Internet Archive.

Nothing ever justifies offering a public API and getting people to use it, to only later backtrack, accuse users of "stealing" and threaten developers with use of physical force.

If the problem is caused by major industries, then just remove the previously public API and don't send mafia-like threats.
>How do you justify that especially if one can't contribute much to society anymore and maybe didn't raise kids on your own?

Interesting point. I do think it is kind of insane that like 70% of our government money goes to old people. Investing in the past instead of the future? Meanwhile everything else is getting cut, because SS and medicare are "mandatory" spending. The reality is that these old folks did not pay high enough taxes and save enough money to justify the money going to them now. Younger generations are getting pillaged.
Just because these people were once ordinary, it does not mean they are still grounded in reality.

I also think it's very easy for people to dismiss criticism as people being haters.

For example, you mention Austen Allred. He has been getting flak on HN and elsewhere from both random people and Lambda school students. To me (And seemingly some other people), he seems a bit detached from reality and based on his few interactions it seems like he either doesn't care or likely dismisses the criticism as people being haters.

> With this in mind, perhaps the key to benefiting from more people's creative energy is to dial down the hate and be more encouraging towards anyone who is attempting to make a valuable difference

The issue I see here is people lauding their vision in the face of criticism, effectively saying "you just don't get it" and labelling the people who criticize them as haters.

Personally, the only way I become a "hater" is when someone does what I just described. Laud their idea as the next coming of christ and basically refuse to interact with any criticism.
It’s wild that the brain can just make sounds up like that. Now I’m wondering how much of the soundscape I hear is real.

Seems like that’s something that could be exploited.
UBI as a good thing.. and when the government says you have to do X in order to get benefits, and X requires you to divest yourself of your integrity? Or modify your genetics? Or not associate with certain friends?

I posit something even simpler. JavaScript bloat exists because it's easy to learn and put something real on a screen for a newb, and it's a pleasure to write in. Writing these frameworks/libraries/websites/whatevers is literally its own reward, and the barrier to sharing tools is low. That, coupled with enthusiastic developers across the entire spectrum of niavete and experience finding new tools fun and exciting to develop and use, and you have an ecosystem with endemic bitrot. It feels absurd to have to say this, but the people who are a part of this ecosystem and contribute to the bloat do not despise the ecosystem the way HN people seem to. They don't see it as broken. It's not going away.
I can see the parallels with fighting. I'm sure there are countless shady and illegal matches and what-not (rotten apples) but official fighting (MMA and the like) are very much revered or at least not considered unethical.

This is widely known among the classical musician community. Nearly every time I upload a YouTube video of me sitting at my piano playing something written 150+ years ago, I'll get a copyright strike.

In the past, I'd simply affirm it was mine and it would go away.

It looks like the new system isn't so forgiving.

This probably won't change until the right person gets a claim and hires the right lawyer who thinks of a good argument to win a massive judgement.
I'm not one of the people you're addressing (I think there's almost zero chance ETs have ever been anywhere near Earth), but - are you kidding me?!

Even the knowledge that any other life exists in the universe would be worth very deeply caring about. And then orders of magnitude more for intelligent life. Intelligent life that visited us??? It'd be all I'd think about every hour of every day for the next few decades.

I'd go so far as to say there may be nothing worth caring about more than this. I don't know how someone couldn't care about it. That's why there's been so much interest and discussion around it since the 40s.
What became of 2009’s Left 4 Dead 2 boycott? Here’s the inside story
OP mentioned the anti-depressants only masking the physical symptoms and not treating the lack of ability to work, therefore OP did not think depression was the issue.

Uuuuh, that's basically a text-book description of anti-depressants "working". You take them to become functional enough to deal with the underlying issue of--in this case--having a really shitty job.
I think it is improbable that there are currently aliens walking among us, but these sightings seem to keep happening and keep getting suppressed because people are afraid to look silly. The whole point of the article is that you shouldn't ignore weird things but investigate them (preferably while keeping the kooks out of it)

Fair enough, banning any employee organization of DEI work (outside of the one HR person).

You're thinking like an engineer. To a non-technical person, that's a lot. I'd even go so far as to say it's prohibitively difficult for anyone outside of our profession.

I'll even say that it's going to be difficult even for folks within our profession. Finding someone who can launch and configure Apache properly (i.e. in a way which won't get it quickly reconfigured to serve porn or illegal files), not to mention keeping everything up to date, is getting more and more rare.
Tape Recovery Simulator 96K will initially focus on audio-casette data, Speccy-style (48K). Commodore 64 and other formats will not be supported, but that could probably change with enough pressure from fans.
This has been happening for decades. Almost all musicians playing classical music has had bans, 3 strikes, blocks, etc on social media, youtube, live streaming sites.

Often times Hilary Hahn (one of the great violinists of our times) gets copyright claims on her own practice streams because they sound literally like her concerts and solo albums.

Basically, the more refined and the better you are as a classical musician, the more likely you'll get a ban for streaming live music (that you play) because ... the composers are all long dead and there's thousands, if not tens of thousands of previous interpretations of the same music (literally note by note the same) floating around in the algorithms of the RIAA ban bots.
>How much of our attitude towards end-of-life is "learned" and result of "we have always done it like that"?

Probably most of it, but there might be a underlying reason for that information to have passed on for thousands of years, across cultures.

Either for practical reasons (like they're a source of the accumulation of information and life experience), or because it's out of fear (let us give the example to younger generations so when it's our turn they won't leave us to die, or just kill us to save resources), or maybe because you have a bond and a moral sense towards elders, or all of these and some more...

Even if they serve the sole purpose of introducing us to death, and to remind us of our brief passage and reframe our perceptions and align our selves and our actions towards something with that end in sight, the fact is that elders are seen as a integral part of the family structure.

This pandemic actually got me a bit worried for the example set to younger generations, that framed the elders as statistics that just die a lot and stripped a lot of the humanity in this situation - and we're the ones that are going to deal with this when it's our turn, that despite your efforts, contributions and value is completely disregarded just because you're old and old people are just numbers that die a lot.

I don't mean to say this as a criticism, but you sound like someone who hasn't been around elders and you might not have much life experience.

There's other stuff like build tools, cross-browser, and other stuff, but that's likely to be confusing and not super necessary to begin with. The above should be enough to get you running with what it sounds like you want to do.

I appreciate you sharing those links. I'm trying to learn mechanical engineering stuff myself, if you have any further useful learning materials I would love to see them.
I am pointing out the cultural reason for the western readers who are wondering or puzzled by the support for the current ruling party, even at this dire situation which the government could have avoided. It becomes clear when one understands what the vedas advocate, the privilege by birth offers and why it is so important over anything else for the priestly caste.
I've used rsync.net since some time before the warrant canary - I'm guessing around 20 years - and I only have nice things to say about the service. Even though I'm just a retail user, the couple of times I've needed support, it was prompt and helpful.

I've heard and read lots of stories of people losing all of their data in some accident or theft, and that's just something I don't have to worry about.

Can't think of any other service as reliable over such a long period of time, with the possible exception of running water.
There can easily be a form of equality substitution whereby the types of the original objects remain relevant for the purposes of the comparison. So that is to say, equal still demands some sort of type match on the original objects, and if that is satisfied, then it proceeds with the equality subs.

Just, not in my language, thanks.

Problem is, how exact of a match do we require? And the exact match is out of the question, too, since it ignores inheritance. If the blogpost slug is derived from username by inheritance, I might want them to be comparable. Thus left has to be a subtype of right, or vice versa.

However, a key property of my object system is that it does not require inheritance for substitutability, you see. The programmer expectation is that they can write some new type from scratch which just has the right properties and methods to be used wherever some existing type is applicable, without inheriting from any common base. And "right properties and methods" includes the equal method for equality substitution.

I wish the problem was isolated to just a few words that I could learn and avoid. But not so much.

I couple of years ago I went to a small hardware store to buy a shovel. I couldn't find what I needed so asked the clerk, who looked at me strangely and got prickly and hostile, like I was weirdo asking for something weird. They didn't have what I wanted and I left.

About a week later it dawned on me. The clerk was a black man, the only one in the village. I had asked for spade, the kind of shovel with a pointy end for breaking ground. Apparently he had taken it as a slur, and that I had been playing some kind of game with him.

Sorry about that. I suppose I should have asked for a shovel with a pointy end.
I run enterprise cloud infra for living. If I were to use a self hosted Heroku thing, would be conflicted about it being based on K8s.

On the one hand, I get it that what you're doing is complex and K8s does a lot of it for you. On the other hand, you're building a complex system on top of a complex system. This naturally leads to more difficulty and doesn't really give much advantage after the system is built. Technically if your system is buggy I could dive into K8s, or add functionality with K8s. But I don't want to have to do either of those.

The best system would be one whose essential complexity is stripped down to just what one needs to do for the primary goals of the system. One example is Drone.io, which is the simplest CI system I have ever seen. It is limited in functionality, yet I don't think there's anything you can't do with it. And it's insanely trivial to configure and run. It certainly has issues you have to work around, but it's so simple that that's not hard to do.

I admire your goals, but my bet is that unless you are geniuses, this is going to end up more complicated than you imagine, and it'll take more sales work than engineering to make it successful. Best of luck to you.
This sounds exactly like a psychotic break to me. I had a massive one and it started with a pop in my mind followed by half a year of similar symptoms. In the end, I was diagnosed Bipolar type—1.

> gnome project felt that they had to n.i.h. an entire programming language.

This isn't what happened. When Vala came out (2006), it was at the time the only programming language advertising such high-level concepts as found in C# (like async/await) while guaranteeing you native performance without a VM. At the time it was billed as a better C++ and a faster C#. When the elementary project adopted Vala (2007), Swift and Rust weren't things, and they would remain unstable for at least the next decade.

Today the world has changed, and while I'd argue that Rust is one of the best languages invented, Vala still has some things over it: easier to learn, binds well with C and a million other languages, faster compilation and a simpler toolchain, has built-in type annotations for Gtk and DBus, all while guaranteeing you native performance.
The whole concept that we can specify a universal judgment on whether a given act is moral or not relies on the idea that there is an inherent and universal morality (which I define as "what ought to be done"). This is a left over notion from the days when there was some reason to believe in a higher authority. For most folks who think about these issues seriously today, the question posed in the title can only be answered with another question: "From whose perspective? According to what values? In what frame?"
Also I would trade you mech eng tutoring for JS tutoring, if you've got the time.
I think there's some analogue between the sore body and physical tiredness after physical labour workdays, and the mental fatigue and dull brain after all-day intense coding. Both are quite unpleasant if they overwhelm you, but there are ways to mitigate both types of effects if you are in a position to manipulate your workday and/or your free time. Snapping yourself out of those states is pretty important IMO. I've had varying success with things like sport or general exercise, it really takes willpower to overcome sometimes though. Work in progress still for me.
I like this. The information section is a good checklist of reminders. I'm sure much of this comes naturally to an everyday designer. However, to someone who dapples in UX periodically, this is helpful.
Given the technical nature of the work, developers who can't jive with GitHub's policies can throw up a GitLab/Gitea server in an hour and evade censorship. And of course, as we learned with youtube-dl, the issue isn't the code/commits (since everyone gets that with a git clone), it's the issues and PR history.

Any public file host has to deal with the DMCA, and (for now, barring any evil brought on by Microsoft), I'd bet on GitHub siding with the developer over the lawyers. They had lots of incentives to go the other way in the youtube-dl case and they didn't, and then they put a bunch of money in a fund if someone wants needs a lawyer to get their project back online.
for others confused by the title, this has nothing to do with golang
As someone for whom this is a real life practical issue, not some idle philosophizing, even asking the question is repugnant to me.
I have incurable cancer and at some point I will decide "enough is enough" and I'd like to be euthanized by a doctor. The doctor will then have to decide if my suffering is sufficiently unbearable and only if he comes to that conclusion is he allowed to do it. He'll have to justify his judgment to a committee and if they disagree he can (theoretically) be prosecuted for murder.
This is insane and caused by assholes who believe human life is sacred or some such bullshit.

I farm in the summer and write code in the winter, or during the heat of the day in the summer.

Its really a great lifestyle. I highly recommend it.
I source eggs, milk etc from small farms. But where I live I wouldn't be able to buy anything if I went all the way to exclude final products like that, however I do exclude many vendors and don't buy much processed food.
Yes, but a useful proof-of-work leads to a less secure block chain. Bitcoin is secure because you know that an attacker that wants to change the second to last block has to spend X million on computational peer to do that. But if those computations are useful outside mining itself, then the attack might become much chapter or almost free
If they wanted to do that there's no need to get an ok from 100 or so devs, because you only need a working version, not to be able to use avery single release with the new license. VLC was able to do it (albeit the change was from gpl to lgpl), there's probably 10 or so devs that owns 80% or so percent of the copyrighted code from the current version, once you get those to agree with the change, in the worst case you have to rewrite 20% of your software.
The idea of a bunch of right wing reactionaries using ultra crappy Web 2.0 project management software out of spite is actually rather amusing. There’s not enough of you guys to keep it alive though (not that you really did this).
I’m not sure where you are drawing the figure “relatively few” from but a side effect of the illegality of heroin is that functional (or “normal”) users don’t typically broadcast their usage for fear of being arrested or stigmatized. There are many people who fall into disfunction or death but the relative amount is difficult to gauge, especially when you broaden the pool to include opiate users more generally.
> I’m confused by this. You created a backend service that runs arbitrary SQL queries from the frontend (presumably with some wrapper that makes it nice to use)?

Yes. Although carefully controlled, queries are arbitrary when developing, but fixed once deployed. You wouldn't want to let the internet at large query your database anyway they like. It also lets you define and run JavaScript functions on the server.

> I don’t think you can compare that to a back-end dev wasting $4900/month on boilerplate code, since they’d be able to set up a similar thing for less.

Those estimates are broken down on the page there, and based on saving 60 hours a month between boilerplate (crud endpoints) that you don't have write anymore, meetings and bugs avoided syncing between backend and frontend devs.

If you mean to say you can implement such a framework in 60 hours, you're dreaming. I've been building this full time since September, and there's a lot more to do.
Prospection vs. Proretrospection
The NYPD retires “Digidog” robot after public backlash
In the "signal-of-vectors vs vector-of-signals" comparison, "vector" refers to the Racket data type used for arrays.
It should not be confused with "bit vectors", which are represented as integers (assuming that a bit can only be 0 or 1).
While it is theoretically feasible, I would rather not use an array to store bits.

I think that your question assumes a model of computation similar to VHDL or Verilog.
The techniques I use in Racket are similar to those used in Clash ( https://clash-lang.org/ )
In VHDL or Verilog, signals are updated in reaction to events.
In Racket, I implement signals as lazy data streams: values are "pulled" from signals, which can trigger the evaluation of other signals.
This is possible because I restrict my models to synchronous circuits with a single clock domain.

I’m amazed at how clean and neat most of this stuff looks. The telephone (with light bulbs and wall switches) is really cool but it’s also very neat as in well made, uncluttered. Everything I try to build like this might work, but it’s ugly with tape,glue, torn cardboard and jagged cuts all over. I’m impressed with the build and the build quality.
