"I will never own a home" going by reddit and certain message boards the sentiment is pretty much "if boomers are rentseeking with land and shiny rocks then I'll rent seek with money"

Land in desirable locations is a scarce good and land owners extract an economic rent via rising land prices which makes housing unaffordable. That same dynamic exists with cryptocurrencies with a limited supply. You buy early and the value of the cryptocurrency rises as more people start using them.

In both cases the hoarding instinct is drowning out productive activity. When land becomes too expensive you cannot afford to live on it. When Bitcoin becomes too expensive you cannot afford to pay with it. Of course this is under the assumption that you need a fixed amount of land and the equivalent to that would be that you also need a fixed amount of Bitcoin.

The primary difference though is that with land people voluntarily decide to move there because the location is attractive. Cryptocurrencies aren't popular enough to justify choosing them over government currencies. People are buying cryptocurrencies because they are going up.
To actually answer your questions:

- Noise means you can't do US domestic

They don't seem to be targeting this.

- Concorde didn't have the range for Pacific

They do seem to be attempting Pacific range.

- Costs didn't work for Atlantic routes

They are trying to bring down costs considerably.

- And airlines want lots of identical planes, not one special one for one route

This will certainly be a drawback, although if they could take e.g. 50% of premium transoceanic it won't be so specialized.
It's a campaign ran on Apple making products that a lot of people like enough to buy them at the price Apple is selling them.
Is it same thing as making fun of names? that probably every country does - e.g saying "average Joe"?

if yes, then how is this associated with racism?

This. a good lawyer will cost money.

It's worth it.

I did pretty much exactly that, last week.
That depends highly on what is meant by "diversity". Sometimes the diversity goals are also statistically impossible to achieve in a non-discriminatory manner. I've worked at companies that set hiring goals calling for X% women in tech roles and Y% people from historically underrepresented groups (long winded way of saying non-Asian minorities). Often times these targets are well above the representation in the available workforce. If 90% of pediatricians are women, and a hospital sets a quota calling for 30% male pediatricians that's inevitably going to lead to unequal hiring practices. At least not unless there's some other reason to expect a 3x overrepresentation of men at this particular company. Same if a company sets target of 40% women in tech roles, when the demographics of that labor force has women in the high teens or low twenties.

Not every commitment to diversity has this conflict. For instance, committing to diversity by anonymizing applications is not. But pursuit of representation targets largely is.
Also didn’t they debut it in the spring either way? I remember something like that. Or maybe it was 2.0

Entrapment is not against the law, but it is a legal defense at trial against a charge.

In any event, this is not entrapment, because it was not coercive. It's not entrapment to offer someone a reasonable amount of money to commit a crime, that's standard police work. It's only entrapment if the person refuses the offer, and law enforcement harasses them, repeatedly suggesting someone commit a crime until they are eventually convinced to do it.
Did they get to level 17? I hear you get an extra car.
I don't know exactly how Tesla's safety systems are designed, but this is my guess.

Collision detection systems (radar) are accurately not detecting an impending collision because the lights are not actually on a collision course with the vehicle.

Object recognition systems (computer vision) are working very well, because they recognize the lights and are updating the 3D map accordingly, but the traffic light 3D model is not designed to be a moving object - unlike vehicles, which frequently move. Which is why we see the car "passing through" them.

What we are likely seeing is simply a weird edge case in the output for the user-interface. I'd imagine if an object was actually flying at the car and the car could see it, it would brake accordingly.

Also, the map is two-dimensional. The car frequently drives underneath traffic lights that I'm sure also appear "on top of" the car in normal cases.

Object recognition and collision detection, from what I understand, are two very different systems.
Employer-managed devices are crap, IMHO. Pay your employees well enough that they can buy their own devices; trust your employees to secure their work assets, and make SecOps training first-class. Everything else is flushing cash down the toilet.

If you can't trust your employees, you are either a psychopath or have poor employee acquisition hygiene.
Amazon can afford to make mistakes because it’s cash cow has already been bred, so I wouldn’t presume that their macro success is evidence that their micro strategies are also successful. It’s more likely that the micro failures can become invisible.

But playing the devil’s advocate, one could make the case that having a quick fire culture keeps employees on their toes and maybe keeps wages suppressed. Maybe that’s worth the cost of hiring poor performers?

They're valuable because that meant the autographer had to be present and see and individually touch whatever was being signed. Often times it is a memento of a fan meeting their idol.

There is a big difference between "the association with playboy is disturbing" and "the picture is disturbing".

The O'Leary quote seems to be talking entirely about the picture, the 512x512 one.

You've given a lot of resources for the former, but they were asking about the latter.

And while "suggestive" is pretty subjective, "woman with bare shoulder" is not self-evidently suggestive.

Er, CFAA is not relevant to the criminal case againt Van Buren, I mean.
That is my feeling as well. The whole point of having colleagues in your physical space is so that you are in the same physical space. Having a virtual space in a background window does nothing for me.

I cannot see my teammates walking to the water cooler, I cannot see some teammates grouping up to discuss, I cannot give a sense of whether I'm interruptible or not. Because what we see are those avatars that do not reflect our current state at all.

3D spaces are fun and I'm very fond of games where I can pretend to do work. However I do not actually exist or work in there, and the moment I start doing actual work I stop role-playing my character around the game.
-Let's start with the 17.5 age. Thanks for pulling the data up. As I stated, Teens UNDER the age of 17.5 were registered to vote en masse. These are technically illegal registrations and therefore votes, but as I said, no judge is going to throw them out. This is blatant disregard for the rules by the left, giving the right reason to drum up conspiracy theories by being misleading and not explaining that the voters were 18 when they voted.

-Hundreds of thousands of "fraudulent" votes in Wisconsin. These aren't fraudulent, they are improperly cast, and have the potential to provide cover for fraud. Again, the left cheats, the right takes advantage of the left's cheating and brainwashes people that it's fraud.

-absentee voter fraud: unknown amount, but easily accomplished with the voting rule changes if any bad actor desired to do so.

Arizona: words matter. There is a difference between illegally cast and fraudulently cast. I don't think I said what you implied. But I don't have it in front of me.

-the left has a disregard for laws: yes, they do, just look at this election. They said the quiet part out loud, count all votes, laws, regulations and procedures be damned. We can look at this from the perspective of accepting votes after election day or even just accepting that if someone is eligible to vote, they can vote and the rules around voting don't apply, the vote will be counted.

-it IS unknown if massive fraud took place. No one has looked before now, they weren't legally allowed because all investigations must have a predicate.

Center for Civic Life: not a conspiracy. They gave massive amounts of money, targeted to areas where they could find the most votes, and all areas were majority Democrat voting. They attached strings to the money that required cities and counties to follow rules that were contrary to state and local laws, including equal access laws. They sent special envoys who were given privileged access to voters data and paid people to correct and cure ballots in only areas that vote heavily Democrat. Mostly grey area lawwise but certainly not ethical.

-Statistical anomalys DO Indicate fraud. Like ultra high turnout. But there is another explaination. Zuckerbergs nonprofit was given privileged access and used government data to run the most successful voter turnout campaign in history.

In the end, yes, it was a conspiracy against Trump. But it was mostly legal, and grey area. The forensic audits are to see if the left overplayed their hand and allowed real straight cut fraud. I don't think it's particularly likely, but I've also seen what has been done to Trump. So I do think it's entirely possible, and no one knows yet. We are only 6 months out from the election. Nothing happens that fast.
we have a clojure codebase that's about 100k lines. Honestly I'm kinda fed up with it. Certain 3rd party libs we've used have been abandoned. We wrote our own libs for a major framework and it is failing behind.

Too many "I'm very clever" functions that are hard to understand and also have subtle bugs.
As with all functional programming languages, if you limit the use to some specific areas you can get a lot done with a few easily understood lines of code.

I had the opposite experience, I bought my car 2nd-hand with low miles and I went to Volkswagen dealership for the transmission service on the Dual Clutch transmission as shown in the manual. I said I’m here for the 40,000 mile service - ignorantly thinking that they follow their own manufacturers recommended maintenance. Changing the fluid in the transmission is complicated on cars with a dual clutch transmission and must be carefully done. If the transmission is damaged it’s very expensive to replace. They charged me almost $2000 and then I looked at the receipt and they didn’t change the fluid at all - in fact they did almost nothing besides jiggle the wheels and change the oil as far as I could tell! I was angry about this so they sent a tech out who tried to tell me that since it’s an “automatic transmission” it should be good for 80,000, Volkswagen just tells you to change it early.

I never returned to that dealership or any other with the car because it was clear that although they sell the cars they know almost nothing about them.

I recently finished porting an app to Windows. I decided to publish on the MS Store (UWP + Desktop Bridge). Don't mind sharing 12% in return for MS's seal of approval

But if I could, I would terminate my iOS appstore presence in a heartbeat.

This is how different Apple and MS make me feel as a developer. Google falls somewhere in between

Everything these companies do is geared towards making us develop (often for free) the features their users want on their devices in a way that their users increase their appreciation for them, not for us. Youtube "developers" at least get paid for their success. We just get made forced to comply. They also won't doubt to use you as a pawn in their war against other big tech (i.e. mandatory requirement to offer Apple Sign in if you want to offer Google/FB Sign in).

And yes, Apple dropping the annual fee would be a nice start
Nope. You're just not patient enough. ACs will come, but very gradually. They're already (mostly) here but it will take another decade or two to be completely A.
It's hardly a failing of democracy that vague platitudes don't get turned into policy.

Ending "political correctness" might be unpopular in principle, but I doubt any specific proposal for how to dismantle it would be popular.

How would you even do that? You can't force people to not be offended by something.
> Exactly, they're much higher positions with more scope and reach than "head of diversity" at a software company.

I don't agree that that’s necessarily evident from the titles alone, and reviewing the actual positions themselves is difficult, e.g., the one he was described upthread as being in at the time of the memo could not have even existed at that time, since it was in 2007 and the position was described as being in an Administration that didn't take office until 2009.

The flow of time seems problematic for the throwaway accounts in this subthread.

> Except the premise of your post was proven categorically false.

The premise of my post was that the post it responded to described an expectation of knowledge based on a specific position he held only much after the time of writing the piece. Which has not been proven false since it was and remains true.

(That the author of that post might have been able to refer to a different position that did not have that problem is a side issue.)

This is nothing like destroying competitors’ property. Coca-Cola can be sold in McDonald’s because the two parties have an explicit business arrangement. But they’ll kick you out if you set up a lemonade stand in their store (they still probably won’t destroy your property, they’ll likely ask you to leave and call the police if you refuse).

McDonald’s will probably, however, make no effort to prevent you from selling lemonade from your driveway, or even prevent Coca-Cola (or Coca-Cola’s direct competitors) from selling soda at McDonald’s direct competitors. (If they did do this, I would agree that it’s anti-competitive behavior that ought to be opposed.)
I don't think they shifted anything, they just added the new revenue on top and became more profitable.

It does solve it and doing so was a key design goal of protocols. It's right there in the docs:

There are several motivations for protocols:

Avoid the 'expression problem' by allowing independent extension of the set of types, protocols, and implementations of protocols on types, by different parties

I agree that it's a concern in static type systems, but the same issue rears its head when defining methods which operate on specific types of strongly typed data, so no, it's not always trivial, nor is it a problem exclusive to statically typed languages, and if it was, there wouldn't be a need to introduce a new abstraction for which addressing the problem is a key goal.
I think you're reading some meaning into my comment that isn't there. My point is simply that a NFT doesn't make a guarantee of uniqueness. A token can reference a file by its URL, but that file can also exist at other URLs, or (AFAIK?) other tokens can reference the same URL.
> For example, what if I tell you I'm going to club you over the head and get access to the computer you're on

That's either a true threat, or assault and battery. It only becomes computer fraud if you fraudulently use my credentials to access the computer.

> Another example is what if I just walk around the counter while you're not there. There is no one around to deceive.

That's trespass, not computer fraud.

There's more than one crime on the books. Saying that something isn't computer fraud isn't claiming that all those things should be legal.

Like in this case, I think it should be bribery more than computer fraud.
Read the paper, as it's not just those two names. Black names are undeniably discriminated against at the earliest points of the employment process.

This is something I like to bring up, since it's a great example of a microcosm of discrimination that it's easy to not think about. There's a black saying that blacks have to work twice as hard to get half as far, and the data seems to be remarkably close to that assessment.
Depends on the style the Java library you are trying to use is written in. I have had mixed results. Especially the Java 8 functional style had some challenges. I might have the relevant SO question somewhere.
In my experience, the whole 10 year warranty seems a bit excessive for vehicles that are nigh close to indestructible [1,2,3]. My parents have had multiple Toyotas that made it to 300K-400K miles. My brother's Corolla was rear-ended by a semi doing 30mph and wasn't even close to being totaled. Eight years later and he's still driving it through swamps in south Florida. They are impeccable feats of engineering.

To me, smartwatches are about making my life more convenient (not taking my phone out of my pocket). So any inconvenience is going to be a big deal.

Having gone from a Wear OS watch with ~1d battery life to a hybrid e-ink watch with ~2w battery life I don't think I'll ever go back, even though I'm giving up features. You already mentioned travel, but an even bigger issue for me was that if my watch didn't get charged overnight for whatever reason (watch wasn't sitting correctly on the charger, fell asleep with my watch on, etc.), I'd basically have a paperweight on my wrist the next day. And having to disable features (always-on display) to get my watch to last through the day always felt silly.

Overall, it's just one less thing to worry about on a daily basis. If I ever see a low battery warning on my watch, I know that it'll still last for more than a day.

Most static type systems that can do what clojure.spec can do tend to include runtime assertion and type checks and do not erase type data from runtime (what some static type zealots call "uni-type" approach).

For example Ada's type system, which has equivalent of Common Lisp's SATISFIES construct, which implements a runtime type assert that can use all the power of the language.
Worth mentioning -- every time I've posted a blog post as "Show HN", it's edited by mods to not include "Show HN."

I use Jenkins as a glorified cron runner in some contexts. One of the things I hate the most is that it's difficult to define jobs as code (the 'Job DSL' plugin works in most cases, but if you're using certain plugins it's hard or impossible to configure them).

What does everyone else use if self-hosting is a requirement but you don't have an enterprise budget?
Why everybody accept the assumption that diversity, as defined by American progressives, i.e. diversity of skin colour and gender, is a good thing?

There is a lot of counter evidence to that, homogeneous teams or groups seems to function better in many cases and for many tasks.

A lot of interesting things in this world were developed by homogeneous groups, like nintendo or hiphop, who said being in a diverse group will instill the same state of mind and cultural understanding and flow that helped creating those phenomenons?

No to mention that a lot of tasks are bog standart and having a cohesive and homogenous team with good communication and understanding of each other is much more important than some skin colour or gender and dealing with all the sensitivities and different approaches.

One day this diversity stupidity will go the same way as UML, an unnecessary complication that doesn't help and doesn't solve any problem. I don't see any problem with different groups in society clustering around certain occupations, it is natural and in some way it creates the actual diverse outcomes rather than forcefully mixing people together to create a large big pile of boring grey blob
So this is not for the US? Sounds like a cool program.

> The way it stores and loads configs, jobs, logs, build workspaces, etc is all 1990s tech.

I agree with a good chunk of what you said, but.

It's files, my friend, files. Tech from the 1970's.

Nothing wrong with that, inherently, and they are easy to inspect, repair if needed, you can use standard tools, etc.

The design of the file structure is maybe the issue, because it makes high availability complicated, but just using files is not necessarily a bad idea.
Yep. It is not surprising at all that the term “insulting” appears three times because that’s how it feels for so many reasons.

Remember:

- They pretend with a straight face like it was somehow impossible to sell software or reach customers before their magical store made it happen.

- They pretend like the current “search” feature of the App Store is not a sad reduction of what it used to be (or what it could be if a trillion dollar company put any effort into it at all).

- They pretend to have all these problems hosting apps that are somehow solved by fees, while completely ignoring all the free apps that clearly tax that same infrastructure.

- They conveniently ignore the absurd amount of money they must be making from scams that are constantly top-grossing to add insult to injury.

I could go on but there are entire blogs written about this by now.
> Lots of classes and interfaces but they are all small and with a single purpose.

That's the side effect. You ultimately end up with more code and not less even though it saves you from type checks.

There are trade offs for both.
