It was an altitude variation, it didn't stray from the accepted longitude and latitude. It also didn't leave the cleared airspace.

> It does not deserve respect because it risked the safety of other people

That's correct, it didn't endanger anyone else.
When you buy those products previously mentioned, what options do you have to pay? You don't pay Nike for the shoes when you buy them from the store. You don't pay the author or the publisher for the book. Those people have already been paid by the vendor at the wholesale rate. You are reimbursing the store plus their markup.

There were, briefly. Hopefully they learnt their lesson from the backlash to that.
You made their point though. Food being Vegan or Halal does not matter to people who don’t care about that. You don’t need to sell to people who already buy in. The software has to stand on its own merits against the competition. A FOSS license is very very rarely going to be the thing that pushes a user to drop Photoshop for GIMP

80 years is longer than most constitutions. The current French Republic was created in 1958, 63 years ago. In fact 80 years covers three French constitutions. China’s constitution is from 1982, and Finland redid theirs in 2000.

Of the countries part of the UN, only 14 countries have a constitutions older than 80 years. The oldest is the US in 1788, and the youngest is Ireland in 1937.
This was my understanding at FB as well. Same while at Yahoo.

Transfers were expected to be for same pay etc (caveat any regional adjustment), and maybe something would happen at the next review. Different groups competing for the same external hire weren't supposed to offer different pay either, from what I heard.
MGNR | Lead DevOps Engineer | Full-time | Remote (worldwide)

MGNR is a small, very successful proprietary trading firm. Our fully-automated trading system executes hundreds of thousands of transactions every day, totaling billions of dollars in volume. Our team (currently 10) is fully distributed in six countries and came together over the past two years. Our tech stack is a microservices architecture in a mix of Python 3 and Rust, mostly running on AWS.

We are looking for a Lead DevOps Engineer to take ownership of everything performance and tooling at the company. The role will consist of two aspects:

(i) War on latency: use every trick in the playbook to improve the speed with which our system reacts to information. Configure network topology, software and hardware to minimize our reaction time across all percentiles. Build the instrumentation necessary to monitor our system performance, identify bottlenecks, and squash them.

(ii) Tooling: design and implement CI/CD pipeline to enable our engineers to deploy better quality software with a shorter iteration cycle.

Desired skill set: Cloud (ideally AWS) expertise, strong understanding of Linux OS and TCP/UDP/IP network stack, containers, CI/CD best practices.

The latest philosophical text I've been living in is E.M. Cioran's On The Heights of Despair[1]. As a Goodreads review puts it: "The most relentlessly-pessimistic author not to have killed himself and, therefore, the writer of our only true solace... Warning to optimists: Reading... Cioran's work may kill you."

>1) If you need to set the price high to avoid that effect, just set it high.

You missed my point, there is possibly no price high enough. The higher the price the more valuable the users who pay it are to advertisers. Thus the price needs to be even higher and endlessly up it goes.

>2) Add an “edited” tag (just like HN does)

HN does not allow the changing of headlines either except by admins. Arguably headlines are closer to tweets than comments.
Ease of setup. That’s pretty much it.

I need no advanced features, and I have no other WG servers to connect to besides Mullvad, so I’m simply using their app which handles everything for me.
Now thats the kind of thinking the Lisp community needs more of to be more successful. Find real world projects where Lips has an advantage and show the advantage by actually doing it. Or promote stories showing how Lisp has been used for cool projects in the past. I know some satellites were running on Lisp. Making it possible to remote REPL the satellite to fix issues. Now that is cool and shows one of the unique features of Lips that developers actually care about.
I would love to buy one and move away from apple, however, you need to enable international shipping! I imagine (hope) there are others like me.
Transportation is not just cars. However, if you can force a break in one area, that frequently opens up opportunities in others.

And such is the case here. But Tesla is not just going after cars. They’re going after the whole energy production/transportation complex, which really is the biggest single contributor to greenhouse gases.

It just so happens that cars was the weak point that could be most easily attacked, and Tesla went for it. But there is much more on the table than just cars.
Don’t worry. I am brave but not stupid ;)
Yep, I have one too and it must be close to 10 years old. Still chugging along running Ubuntu LTS and serving files via ZFS.
Apple didn't merely "stake out" its own territory. It created its own territory where none previously existed. And being a landlord is a perfectly legal occupation, even if it doesn't win you many friends.

In my personal opinion (and I recognise that this is a controversial view on Hacker News) Apple should be entitled to the same thing Epic Games asks for—which is the right to decide how much their intellectual property is worth when used by other developers to build commercial products.
Bioweapons designed to kill only people of particular race[2019]

Literally trying this out on a raspberry pi right before I saw this.

I wanted to try building from scratch. 0 issues with compiling. Still trying to talk to it—probably just some issues with my local DNS. Very impressive to see this kind of thing though! This looks like an excellent candidate for a p2p implementation!

UPDATE: It is running! I just need to get nginx set up. It was really easy to get everything else running, (really nice to not have to configure a db!) and that I think will be a boon to those interested in starting up their own home servers.
An Introduction to the Microapps Architecture
Considering that ten year old computers are still usable today, it means that the supported lifetime of Apple hardware is half of what it could be.

And it's not just the computer itself but the whole ecosystem that gets the boot periodically. Last year I built a Linux-based 24 track digital studio on the cheap by buying Firewire soundcards that no longer worked on the latest Macs. Great hardware that otherwise still worked perfectly.
That's a good strategy to get fired, not a good strategy to get promoted.
There's nothing wrong with copying credit card numbers, people used to do that all the time with the manual credit card machines. What is wrong is stealing money.
Questions:

1. Who is providing these apps and services?

2. What is their long-term goal?

3. Why should I trust them with my data?

4. Where are they located?

5. When did they get started?

6. How do they plan on becoming financially sustainable?
> Oh sure the mcflurry machine might suck. But I nearly never get a bad coke, bad coffee, undercooked food or crappy fries. It's always the same no matter where or when I go.

I haven't done fast food in awhile because it's terrible, but this is a far cry from my experiences.

I've had undercooked chicken nuggets that were slimey, coffee that had sat in the pot so long it became sludge, and almost half of the time get flat coke or a different beverage than I ordered (diet instead of zero, or with strong hints of orange).

These aren't one-off experiences, but easily a quarter to a third of my past visits. To several stores.

McDonald's has shit quality control in every dimension. It's astonishing to me that they produced the breakout success that was Chipotle. Or that they maintain their present market cap.

The legal argument against a subpoena, such as it were, rests on the Constitution’s speech-or-debate clause, which states that “for any Speech or Debate in either House,” members of Congress “shall not be questioned in any other Place” (emphasis added).

The clause dates back to 1689’s English Bill of Rights, which was designed to prevent the monarchy from using criminal and civil laws to bully legislators critical of the Crown.

The Democrats are attacking their opponents for challenging the results of the election, something that has occurred after every election by both sides for time and memorial.

I wonder how much longer they are going to try and make hay from Jan 6th? Probably right up until the midterms which is over a year away.

But it's not my fight anyways, I live in Canada now and we are going into our own election which will probably result in our own set of challenges, big lies and inquiries as canadian politicians seem to mirror the US political attack strategy.
Trivializes an important topic.
That sounds deeply painful. Why choose to keep a constant reminder up? If you're lucky you'll be able to forget about it for a brief instant but it sounds like you have intrusive thoughts that won't let you forget. There's medication for that, among other things, if you so choose.
Not at all. CTO is primarily a management role as well.

Companies do more to than just obey laws. Or rather, what is legal or illegal isn't the issue. Places like Reddit have banned legal speech, just because. There was no law saying they had to. They did it because they wanted to. Making this a legal issue, it only discussing legal issues is weird
Well you know the real, but I don't see you coming up with any solutions.

> $30 billion+ revenue

That's revenue. What's the profit? It's not going to work unless you let people make money.

I'm not pro-nuclear. I'm not anti. I don't have skin in the game, and yeah, I don't know anything about this. Or your particular situation. But maybe that outsider perspective is something you need. I'm just thinking. About systems and how to make this efficient. Maybe you should try that too.

But yea, those bailouts you mentioned, they're for unprofitable plants in Byron and Dresden. So don't pay them, and let them fail. So what? Get elec from gas. It's cheaper anyway. Or, factor in the cost of emissions, and pay the nuke guys more for making clean.

Either way it's not the fucking company's problem of not being able to manage it. It seems like it's the state's issue of not being able to allocate its resources properly, and letting itself fall in the trap of politicizing and blame pointing, rather than solution finding. It's not the companies responsibility to run the plant at a loss. That's the state's got to solve that problem.

This is a fucking non-issue. The plant has power that's too expensive: So let it die. Oh, but it's good power, it can't die: So keep it alive. Problem solved. Either way, it's not gonna help if you pretend, "Oh I'm such a big expert, I'm so right about this and non one else is," right? That's not gonna help.

You got angry at me 'cause I had some idea about this. It's not my fault--No point blaming anyone else or angry at me--it's your (IL, Chicago, politicians' and peoples') responsibility to fix this. It's not mine. I just had an idea. And it's a pretty good idea too: Let the fucking market decide, don't get bogged down.
Yeah I'm on the waitlist to see when they release the laptop in Australia. I recall them saying it's expected this year. Happy to be corrected.
I use it, it's pretty good if you expect your project to grow pretty large. I wouldn't recommend it for something basic.

It can get hard to get some things working well. Eg expo, which has a 3rd party package, but it's usually pretty far behind on the version of nx it supports.

Personally, I've just started using blitz js for smaller things, no need to split things into packages.
I love reading beginner books of Philosophy. One of the best books is The Practice of Philosophy: A Handbook for Beginners. That book doesn't tell you the history or branches of Philosophy, it teaches you how to argument in the way of Philosophy.

Reading the history and categories is like reading vocabulary books, it won't help you speak unless you learn the grammar first. (grammar => argument)
I imagine this taking the form of individual copying being okay while distribution is illegal. That would probably have to be regardless of scale and price/commercialization.
If this is the study I remember, it was a study of outdoor use?
Demonstrate.
The author seems to be discussing a form of the “inner critic”. In my personal experience, a severe inner critic seems to be a symptom of unresolved emotional issues due to difficult life experiences / circumstances and unmet needs (in many cases, one could potentially use the word “trauma”, but it is a heavy and loaded word).

Practicing self-compassion, learning how to better process emotions, re-assessing how to live a good life, and changing my circumstances have all been really important for me to get better. The processing of really difficult emotions has been very hard at times but it seems to be necessary part of the process, at least for me :).

I’m not sure if any of this applies to the author, but thought it was worth sharing.
Does PBS make content people want to watch?
The retail analogy doesn't quite fit. Apple isn't just the shoe retailer[0] they're also the company which supplied Nike with all of the sewing machines and stitching yarn that was used to assemble shoes made with Nike leather and rubber. Nike signed an agreement with Apple which says that in return for an endless supply of sewing machines and yarn, Nike must split the final revenue with Apple.

[0] And even retailer isn't quite right. What the App Store does is less akin to the wholesale-retail model and more like the agency sales model.

I think an interesting counter-counter point is the seeming success of video and board games crowdfunds, where hundreds of thousands of dollars seem to be fairly regularly collected, not that that rivals the scale of movie production.
I don't doubt that it's better for everyone that Intel and AMD are getting closer to the theoretical max performance of chips right out of the box, but I do miss the days when you could work up the nerve to start playing with the voltage and frequency settings and get a free performance boost well after your purchase date.
> For the most part, crontab.guru tries to be true to Vixie cron.

One major reason Vixie cron doesn't warn people that they've created a job which will never run, or will only run in a leap year, or whatever, is that there's no convenient way to issue the warning. The thing is configured prior to runtime via text editor. There's zero downside to anyone if you warn people they've created a job that will never run.

It's less important than the end of month warning which is so easy to fix, but the nice part about warning about jobs in the DST window is that the warning helps out everyone, regardless of whether they're using a modern version of Vixie cron. So much job-scheduling related software relies on cron syntax, and I'd venture to guess a lot of those people would be happy to use your tool, probably more than the traditional Unix administrators. Granted, it's a weird warning to word properly.
Apple is getting their bullshit encoded into law. That’s enraging.
> Fed has to operate within the constraints of what makes sense

that's an implicit assumption all rational economists would have. It's like saying the US could just be holding the entire world hostage by threatening to nuke the entire world.

The blogpost you linked is basically confirming that the feds don't have unlimited room for controlling interest rates. they can merely nudge it a bit here and there, and hope for the best.

I like the analogy of the bus driver through the Alps.
You'll notice I compared with Microsoft, another maker of an OS. I don't think analogies work that well when comparing something that is Turing complete vs. not.

Fitness apps compete with gyms, movie apps compete with theaters, learning apps might even compete with schools, etc.. an OS provides the capabilities to do all of these things. I'm sorry, but your analogies make zero sense to me. Apple should be regulated at least the same way Microsoft was, and the Open App Markets Act does this, and I'm glad to see it. I don't think small changes like this are really the way to fix what's wrong with iOS and Android, even though the latter is more open.
LOL, 10/10 Perfect HN headline score!!!

I'd class it as similar to Cherry Picking. But you're right, it is something else. It feels like a defense mechanism to reassure they themselves made the right ... investment?

I don’t think we’re obligated to come to a judgment. The article resonates with people because they’ve had similar experiences (e.g., elsewhere in the thread I mentioned I’ve been both kinds of cofounders.) It would be great if the other cofounder would share what happened to them and how they saw things, but in the meantime it’s fine for one person to tell their story. Most personal accounts are written by the person who experienced it and comments aren’t solicited from all involved parties as they would be in a journalistic article.

Lol I have not looked into the buildup of this but holly smokes is this trash. Nothing interesting honestly. Here I was thinking a new home for psychical research or something not mainstream, and it's just extensions of the culture wars
Here is a challenge to the Lisp community: Show us your Lisp on Rails. Show us how much more productive you will be using Lisp on Rails compared with Ruby on Rails. People learned Ruby just to use Ruby on Rails. People will learn Lisp just to use Lisp on Rails if (and that is a big if) it truly is much more productive than Ruby on Rails.
Most companies operate on leverage. There's nothing problematic about debt in itself.
The important thing to take away from it is that the DOJ deliberately misrepresents sentences in press releases, presumably for the deterrent factor. But you can just download the sentencing guidelines and follow the charts to get a likely range of actual months (it's interesting! I recommend it!) and they're virtually never anything like the DOJ's claim.
I highly doubt any major corporate franchise is going to risk repairing any of their own industrial machines or have a 3rd party do it, without a warranty.

Taylor already said McDonalds franchises are free to fix the machines themselves but it breaks the warranty. This is usually for a good reason.
Bars, nightclubs, and music venues scan ids all the time at the door. Sure you don't have to hand it over, but then you are not getting in.
> Amazon is clearly abusing the process.

It's not clear to me. I'm actually quite worried about SpaceX's increasing presence in space put simply because Musk has shown very little care for risk - especially if it's to someone other than him (e.g. testing "self-driving" on public roads, showing exceedingly lack of QA and attention to detail in most products, and generally bringing the "move fast and break things" mantra into applications that are life and death).

For example, SpaceX Starlink satelites (just Starlink) account for over half of close encounters and are expected to account for 90% of close encounters in the future. [1] It only takes one major screw up there to completely ground the human race for the foreseeable future.

So how much do you trust SpaceX to not screw over humanity by setting of a Kessler effect? I don't at all, so in that regard I'm all for SpaceX facing the highest level of scrutiny in all things because I do not consider them a trustworthy enterprise.
