You don't see it? It's the entire second half of the first paragraph of the first rule of the subreddit. If it was Fight Club, the rule we're talking about would be in the words "about Fight Club".

I think you should actually visit the site before generating for yourself strong opinions about how it can be effectively moderated.
You misunderstand, I guess because I kept my post brief. This person was a software engineer working for a non-kibbutz company, so the non-kibbutz company was paying that person's salary to a kibbutz bank account rather than to the person. The salary was about $30,000/year for an end-of-career senior developer, who was easily worth triple that or more. From her perspective, she didn't see a point in trying to move jobs or ask for market-rate, because either way, whatever salary she earned went straight to the kibbutz. The kibbutz didn't complain about the exploitation salary because it was "enough" and the non-engineers running the kibbutz didn't know what people are supposed to be paid.

So everybody loses. The kibbutz loses because it gets way less hard cash than it would otherwise be able to get. She lost, leave the economics out of it for the sake of argument, because the reality of exploitation is that you suffer in your work relationships as a result.

A kibbutz doesn't give you job security. If you are supposed to be earning from outside the kibbutz, and stop working, then you face social ostracism and shame within the insular community. That's not security.

I'm reminded of Chesteron's Fence in this.

Every major ABI is listed here as containing the same mistakes. I'm inclined to think the people who designed these ABIs were smart enough to understand the consequences of their design decisions.

I don't know whether this author is correct or not, but my gut is there is something missing here with respect to non local control flow (like exception handling, setjmp/longjmp, and fibers).
Pain in the ass to clean a French press. I prefer my Bunn.
Where I work often latency is prioritized at the expense of throughput. People tend to amplify minor issues which left untouched resolve themselves. Just by leaving the respective task untouched, it leads to increased throughput.
You make a good point about variance.

Eg. I could take the car, which is usually the fastest, but if I am unlucky there's a traffic jam and I have to wait.

Or I take the bike, which is slower on average, but there is no risk of a traffic jam.
There's an MLAT treaty. It's unlikely she would be extradited, but it's not impossible.
This is true, but the difference is obvious. People join kibbutzim because they want to. Voluntary communism might work; imposed communism never has.
Well, I think the author got a point here. There is no perfect solution for this problem, yes. Maybe for this student, this way works, but not for others.

What I am saying is
First, if student don't even understand what is carAccerleration or carSpeed is, then how do you expect them to understand the X and Y term?

Second, to explain an example, you may not use carSpeed or anything related to it at all, but why use X and Y while there are so many better names out there. It really depends on the context of the example trying to show.
So my point is using carSpeed or carAccerlation as programming naming technique bad? Yes, it's bad. But using greek terms to show a student who are really bad at understanding things comes even worse. How we can explain them what is alpha, what is beta, etc

I am not an official teacher at any school, but I volunteered to an educational organization to teach students about science experiments. The odd is there is a huge gap in knowledge in ONE class, students range from 6th grade to 9th grade. Student of 6th grade in class don't even know what is physics and chemistry (all stuffs they know is adding and substracting). My job is explaining to them what electromagnetic field is and how the tesla coil works. That's come to my point, you can't just throw to them a bunch of equations and tell them it is it. I had to solve this by breaking the term down into smaller pieces and didn't talk about any equations at all. After that, could I expect them know how to solve physics problems? Of course, it's not. But at least they had a push, and if you want someone to move forward, a small push is what they need (Newton's first law related). That is the 'A-hah' moment.

One more point, if you have read 'A Brief History of Time' of Stephen Hawking, you'll see he barely used any complicated terms or equations in his book (he did use, but not much), he just explain things and break it down into small pieces so even non-physiscal peoples will understand.

And in conclude, if it's for generalize things, then an equation with greek terms is needed. However, to explain things to student who are bad at math and really need help, there is so many better ways to name terms in math examples instead of using greek letters.

Tried this when I wanted a tool to help pick a tubular lock that was being difficult with the improvised stuff I was trying and which I didn't want to drill out. Of all the hardware stores and hobby shops I called, only one actually took me seriously and checked to be sure they didn't have it. All the rest falsely told me that lock picking was illegal and seemed to take offense.

Ended up buying some cheap shit off ebay that got the job done.
I haven’t seen a one’s complement machine in decades but at the time C was standardized here were still quite a few (afaik none had a single-chip CPU, to get to your question). But since they existed, the language definition didn’t require it and some optimizations were technically UB.

The C++ committee decided that everyone had figured this out by now and so made this breaking change.
I live in a fairly small town. Almost every store is minimally staffed, often by a single person. Phones regularly go to voicemail. Calling up the local shoe store to ask whether they have something in my size will get an interesting response. I’m also thinner than average here, so entire pants racks at the local clothing stores just don’t carry a single piece in my size.

There is quite a difference between giving voluntarily and being expropriated.

That's less capitalism, but rather monopolism and nepotism (actually a "government failure" in the view of public economics). If there were real competition, these publishers could not afford to charge such margins.
That, or buy a nicer coffee maker.
Do people really make individual cups of drip coffee? Drip coffee is perfect to make a pot with as many cups as you want.

And while the coffee is dripping, you can go do something else!

It seems like a great way to make some of the industry-standard info more approachable to newcomers. I spend a lot of time explaining to people how TC works at tech companies, and IMO employees win when that info is more palatable.

I guess it’s still hard to do an apples-to-apples comparison unless all your job offers look like this, though.

Have you tried the multi tcp feature? It should solve the bandwidth issue with Amsterdam servers (torrenting allowed).
Yes from ntop regarding nDPI.
Huh, so I clicked on make account and when I checked the "english instances" box, the first item in the instance list changed to Chinese. Guess that checkbox doesn't work so well.
This analogy maybe works if this is your first time ever making coffee, but anyone who drinks several cups of coffee a day has a process that looks very different from the sketches and doesn’t need feedback from the first cup. Ironically, I think too many problems in software development come from treating things that we do every day and on every project as though they’re unpredictable shots in the dark.
> Say what you will about USSR, they brought out a lot of people from nomad lifestyles to the modern life with widespread education

The USSR also took a lot of educated modern lifestyle people and sent them to Siberian forced labor camps. The whole thing was very much a calculated plan to replace the educated upper and middle class with new people that would be more loyal to Stalin.

The whole automation industry is a security disaster but it is because security isn’t part of the deliverables for any party. It isn’t in the specs, civil, mechanical, electrical engineers it isn’t their responsibility.

If the owner has an IT department they usually don’t want to be responsible for it either since locking things down leads to weird issues with legacy proprietary SCADA systems.

There is no out of the box secure solution available yet. Rockwell certainly makes an attempt with their factory talk directory but I highly doubt that isn’t easily worked around somehow.
One of the things I'm really excited about for Rust is restrict semantics are baked right there into the language with &mut/&. I think there were still a few LLVM bugs to flush out(because very little C/C++ code uses restrict by nature of how it subtly explodes when you get it wrong).

In theory when they sort that out Rust should be able to turn on restrict where it applies globally "for free".
Isn't that the problem Instacart is attempting to solve? I readily admit I'm not a user in order to know if any business is available to be ordered from, but toward that end I don't believe just any business is available for those food delivery ones, either

But the fisherman rents and when his generous landlord sells to a real estate corp that capitalizes on market inefficiencies, he'll find himself out on the street and replaced by a remote software developer.

When he gets heart disease in 20 years, he'll find himself in an underfunded public hospital too.

When his kids grow up and he wants to send them to uni, he'll find himself taking out a 100K loan.

Then he'll find himself fishing all day long just to pay off the interest on his debt/to stay afloat and he'll regret no capitalizing on his younger days, but it's too late because all the fish are gone thanks to foreign fishing trawlers.

To clarify, I'm skeptical of the article's attempt to point at racism, not of the existence of racism in general, neither even in the context that the article places it in. I'm criticising the article.

I must say I don't appreciate your attempt to connect my comment with racist views you may have encountered in the past. I invite you to consider your comment in the context of the HN guidelines about responding to the strongest interpretation of others' comments, which I believe you ommitted to do in this case.

(And I edited this and deleted other comments to make the whole exchange less combative, also in the spirit of HN guidelines).
Some of the best restaurants are the ones that are hopelessly bad at this kind of marketing and instead get by with great cooking. Small towns sometimes have these gems hiding away if you can find them.
It could do more harm than good, but it remains possible that someone will do it anyway. It's a legitimate scenario for these types of companies to consider in their cyber-security planning and preparation (assuming they have any).
Kind of ignores context switching overhead.
It is no longer arithmetic if there is an endianness. Some things are numbers and some things are sequences of bytes. Arithmetic only works on the former.
I don't know where you're planning to get it manufactured, but I can recommend a CM in the UK that I used for my own Kickstarter project (vela.io) and have continued to do so for multiple rounds of reorders.

And this is the issue that no one seems to be getting. Epic will lose. As a gaming company they never really have a case, I do admire them to have the courage to go against the largest cooperation in modern history. But it provide enough materials for their end goal for other parties, whether that is EU or US regulators.
TypeScript – What Is All About and Why Should You Use It?
> And "you can just use Google" is the equivalent of saying "you can just use British Telecom." True only in some kind of theoretical sense. You can fly to Britain and subscribe to telephone service there. It's not realistic.

I'm not following. You can literally just go to a Best Buy and gaze at lots of different phone models to see for yourself. It's very realistic.

> Saying that you have a choice for the $1 app and all you have to do is replace your $400 phone and all your other apps and convince all your friends to switch away from iMessage is at the same level of practicality. Worse, because there are multiple different apps. What happens if I need both iMessage and a BitTorrent client?

A couple of things: first, you ideally should be doing research before buying a product. Second, if you need to replace a $400 phone for a $1 app, you're effectively buying that app for $401 - it must be really worth that amount for you to switch phones. If it's not, then it's just not. I think that's a personal choice and doesn't have much to do with anything other than making economic decisions for yourself. For example, I really like video games (but hardly play). There are games that I want to play that aren't available on the Mac. My choices are buy a Windows machine, or buy a Mac, or buy both (or neither). I chose to forgo a game I want to play in favor of having a Mac and to make that trade off. It's a trade off. I'm hopeful that game could come to the Mac but there's no good reason I can tell to force someone to make the game because I want to have my cake and eat it too.

Products have features and trade-offs. On the iPhone you have iMessage which might be very important to you so you can go with an iPhone. Or maybe you need a BitTorrent client and it's not available on the iPhone so you buy something else.

This is just how the world works.
Yes, and this is exactly Marcus Holmes's point.

I gather the impact of Smithy is to generate something like an old style CORBA client/server stubs and vocabulary types for a given serialization, and communication schema (HTTP2, gRPC) in a target language? Is Smithy specific to interoperating with AWS services or can used in pretty much any distributed system?

That means that you likely use university/college internet and your institution has purchased institution access. This access is usually implemented in the form that everyone from the institution's network can download the paper, without having to log in at the publisher's website or anything. Basically an ip based whitelist.

Doing work on my personal laptop does not mean I can't just hand in the work devices and walk away. My credentials would be disabled. The work data remains on work machines.

> I honestly don't understand what's confusing about this.

I didn't argue it was confusing. I argued against your assumption. And there's no need to use that tone - it comes across as aggressive and condescending. EDIT: I note this is not your only comment in this thread that comes across this way. Looking at your comment history suggests you're just direct, so I'll assume you don't mean anything by it, but it rarely goes over well here.
I have a bit of a different take on Le Guin's best work.

I couldn't get into The Dispossessed. I will try again, though.

I read The Wizard of Earthsea when I was a teen and loved it, struggled with the second book (Tombs of Atuan) at the time, then returned to it 30 years later and now consider it a truly fine work as a story and an examination of religion, tradition, and belief.

Immediately after completing Atuan, moved on to the third book in the series (and liked it) but couldn't get into #4.

I've also enjoyed her short stories, including some of her later collections from the 1990s and 2000s.

A book that is seldom on her "best of" lists but I think should be there IMHO: The Beginning Place. I first read it in the U.K. (with an alternate title, Threshold) but returned to it recently and it holds up in terms of the story and the scope of the strange world it describes. Not to mention the beauty of science fiction or literature or prose or whatever you want to call it in the hands of a master:

The creek, his companion and his guide: what of it? It must join a river, or become a river, downstream, and large or small it must run at last into the sea. His breath caught. He stared blankly at his fire, his mind held by that thought: the sea that lay beyond the coasts of evening. The darkness to which this living water ran. White breakers in the last of dusk and out beyond them the depths, the night. The night, and all the stars.
Actually this is exactly the point that the video makes and it offers a very good explanation on the why.

But you're right, this description is for sure clickbaity.
Ask HN: How did the ability to Google anything change your learning strategy?
Very little, quite frankly. I've used valgrind in the past, and found very few problems. I just ran -fsanitize=undefined for the first time on one of my current projects, which is an embedded network service of 8KLOC, and with a quick test covering probably 50% of the codepaths by doing network requests, no UB was detected (I made sure the sanitizer works in my build by introducing a (1<<31) expression).

Admittedly I'm not the type of person who spends his time fuzzing his own projects, so my statement was just to say that the kind of bugs that I hit by just testing my software casually are almost all of the very trivial kind - I've never experienced the feeling that the compiler "betrayed" me and introduced an obscure bug for something that looks like correct code.

I can't immediately see the problem in your CVE here [0], was that some kind of betrayal by compiler situation? Seems like strange things could happen if (end - start) underflows.

I am sympathetic, but portability was more important in the past and gets less important each year. I used to write code strictly keeping the difference between numeric types and sequences of bytes in mind, hoping to one day run on an Alpha or a Tandem or something, but it has been a long time since I have written code that runs on non-(Intel AMD or le ARM)

> The current system doesn't provide much value in terms of printing and distribution (even though some journals still do printing). The thing that keeps these journals alive is their reputation as filters for bad science. But even that is questionable, as proven by a lot of bad science making it into top journals.

Just because some bad science gets in doesn't mean it's 100% useless; perhaps the bad science we're seeing now is 1% of what we would otherwise?

I have no real insight in this, so I can't really judge how useful it is, but it's not an on/off switch, and as you've stated here it strikes me as a fallacious argument.
