By "make it" I mean all the way to finished product. There is a ton of expense and time to create a biosimilar insulin, not just clinical trials, but regulatory approvals and updates, safety monitoring.

Why not just find an existing seller and negotiate some pricing deal and then subsidize it for people in CA?
Thanks for formatting the timestamp, which I missed in the original post.
I don't find it worse than others. It is a bit different but it does its job well. And the GUI, thank god, remained the same. The buttons are a bit small thought.
even if we add types to js... minification, dead code elimination, and even precomputing or other performance optimizations will still require a compiler.

not sure what typechecking inside chrome would add....

maybe it could be used for faster js execution like how asm.js works
Pretty much always, I think. The Black Swan Treasure is an interesting case. Peru, the US salvage company, and Spain all made cases for the treasure. It was found off the coast of Gibraltar, and Spain doesn't really agree with their borders/sovereignty. There were also allegedly some shenanigans involving the US State Department offering to facilitate the return of the treasure to Spain if Spain helped return a painting that had previously been stolen by Nazis.

I've played DF since back when it was Slaves to Armok. I don't think Tarn/Zach are that bad at UI/UX. It's just they headed down this path as the low friction route, planning to come out of it later.
Agreed, I also switched from rTorrent -> Deluge -> QBittorrent. It has a surprisingly clean interface and works with a lot of torrents without any issues. Deluge always had load issues pretty quickly, especially after coming from rTorrent.
> To the investors there is!

I thought we agreed that the difference to investors is that selling shares back to the company is better from a tax perspective than receiving a dividend.

> If you spend $1bln buying back shares, that isn’t money in their pocket until they sell.

In aggregate, they just sold $1bn. Individually, they can sell the proportional part. (Ignoring the second-order effects due to the uncertainty about the timing of the buybacks.)

> And if they sell, they don’t get any future ‘growth’.

Just like when they get the dividend and they end up owning the same share of the same company. The difference is that they pay less taxes.

> And if the company/economy doesn’t do well next quarter, they’re losing it in the form of decreased stock value, or even implosion/complete loss.

This seems more of a reason to avoid companies that do not distribute money (either in the form of dividends or buybacks), doesn't it?

> A dividend is direct cash in the bank. Much lower (zero) ongoing risk of losing that payment. But it gets taxed directly at a higher rate.

Selling the stock to the company is also cash in the bank - and it doesn't get taxed at a higher rate.

Whatever the relevance of "they don’t get any future ‘growth’" argument it's unrelated to the difference in rates between income taxes and capital gain taxes.

For the sake of the argument, let's say that both tax rates are equal. If company A distributes $1bn and company B doesn't would you still say that investing in company A the investros "don’t get any future ‘growth’"? In that case your preference for 'growth' companies is not based on the fact that dividends are taxed at a much higher rate than long term capital gains.
Same thing. Would you like an uranium mine in your backyard instead?
For other similar case (this time the shipwreck was found in Portugal) see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuestra_Se%C3%B1ora_de_las_Mer...

A private company (Odyssey Marine Exploration) salvaged the wreck illegally:

> On February 17, 2012, it was reported that U.S. Magistrate Judge Mark Pizzo ordered Odyssey to return the coins to Spain by February 24, 2012, where they will be dispersed to museums, not to heirs. The Supreme Court declined to stay this order and Odyssey will abide by the decision.[23] On February 24, 2012, two C-130 Hercules aircraft from the Spanish Air Force picked up the treasure in Florida and transported it to Spain.[24] Odyssey petitioned the Supreme Court to reconsider the issues in the case but on May 14, 2012, the court declined to take up the appeal.[25] The coins have been returned to Spain, whereby Spanish law dictates that they can never be sold to the public.

This presents a very rosy-glasses version of history, likely based on the noble savage myth. Do you have any idea how the standard of living has changed in the past 600 years? Malnutrition, disease, lifespan, hours of leisure, infant mortality, are all far better today than they were in Precolumbian south america, even among the poor.

I'm not so sure, it's not bad.

If Google decided to remove, for sake of example, add-ons. Would un-Googled Chromium be able to keep it?
It's basically the same reason Google pays for Chrome. Giving a free/good/open (mostly open, natch: liveshare, remote plugins) product hedges against the worst most dangerous form of existential risk, takeover of the world by controlled/proprietary (or just other people's) products.

Microsoft was losing badly. Windows was the only (slight exaggeration) development platform that mattered for a long time, but that relevance has shrank enormously. Microsoft needed to stay relevant, needed to maintain relevance. Less and less people were thinking of Microsoft as relevant or interesting or important. Building & giving away good product keeps them dealt in to the great game. That it wasn't just their home turf, but actively in the fray? Just as important a factor, expanding their realm of influence. And it gives them optionality into the future. They can use & adjust this best-of-breed technology to whatever possible ends suit them, as time goes on. It's a huge, longrunning, long bet: they developed anew their talent for code development.

It's worked. They have become the go-to editor, again, after many years. They reserve some of the best capabilities with proprietary ownership- so far still reasonably free though. But we're seeing, just now, the breakthrough game, the real payouts, as projects like Github Codespaces bloom into fruition, become viable, powerful, compelling places to get work done, for folks of all level. Ultra-accessible, no minimum requirements to get started, everything works out of box, best-of-breed-capabilities. By being good at a core-talent of the world (coding), one that is powered by the most important platform on the planet (the web), Microsoft has the ability to adapt & grow into & make good any product that touches code/coding.

my experience with street dogs in India was positive, they were never* agressive towards me, quite the opposite, in Goa beach they were protecting white (!) people on beach from locals, in morning when I sat on empty beach they even made circle around me and lay around me, but when (clearly) local came to beach they started bark at him immediately, I wonder if tourists treat them better than locals, so they behave accordingly at least in Goa

*only place in India where I was attacked by dogs was right at the southern gate of Taj Mahal, dog snapped after my leg but it seems he didnt bite, even guard checked my leg and mind saying when I travelled around Agra I saw in other location again younger boys attacked by street dogs, so seems Agra is really bad place with dogs, everywhere else in India was my experience with street dogs uneventful

If you're deploying to multiple regions in aws then you'd presumably have to roll out the infrastructure for 3 regions yourself if you weren't? In which case I gotta assume using aws is probably a lot more straightforward straight off the bat than rolling your own solution in three different data centers?
Thanks. I knew homomorphic encryption let's you do math on encrypted data without knowing its contents. But it hadn't occurred to me you can keep one side of the arithmetic in plaintext. It also helped when gojomo pointed out that every query touches every byte of the full dataset.

So basically (if I've got this right and at the risk of over-simplifying): Client computes a bit mask and encrypts it, sends that to the server, and says "do a big multiplication of this against Wikipedia content". That leaves only the relevant portion in the encrypted result, which only the client can decrypt.

How does the client know which bits in the initial "mask" (aka one-hot vector) to set? Does it have to download a full index of article titles? (So in a sense this is just a big retrieval system that pulls an array element based on its index, not a freeform search tool).

They are indeed still a thing. In my region there are lots of good movies that are simply not available for streaming. Even fairly mainstream movies, like The Spanish Prisoner for example. One could buy those movies on DVD, but that does not feel like a good option to me.
For you and everybody else complaining about this aspect: This is open source software. GPL licensed. It's provided as-is. You are free to use it and express what you think about it, and the maintainers are equally free to do with your opinion whatever they like, which includes ignoring it.

Clearly, none of the maintainers found this to be a problem. They likely don't need proxy settings for themselves. And they apparently also don't want to spend the time and energy to fix an issue that they don't have. That doesn't mean it's not an issue. It's just not an issue for them and they choose to do other things in life than fix it for you. Do you really demand somebody who already gave something to you for free to do even more work for free to implement something that they don't need themselves? Why would they do it? To get you to stop complain?

It's open source, you are free to go fix it yourself. This is Hacker News, lots of people on here should have the competence to fix this. Yet, in the last 10 years, apparently nobody found it so bad that they fixed it. It is clearly not impacting as many people as you make it sound like.

"Nobody should use Deluge" is an unsuitable statement, just because it has an issue in your use case. Many people don't have that use case, and of those who do, nobody bothered to fix it yet. Complaining doesn't fix anything.

What needs just as much fixing as the raised issue is your attitude towards open source.
Smart companies cover their offices with whiteboards. It's still the best way to capture ad-hoc collaborative thought. You can take a photo of it and someone can bang out a google doc afterward. But with remote work, we don't have this tool available, and online "whiteboards" don't work well because drawing with a mouse is too difficult. This is probably what Microsoft was trying to solve when they pushed for touchscreens on all laptops. Maybe we can issue wacom tablets to all developers?

Last time I looked, the price of an electric F-150 was actually a good chunk cheaper than a Tesla car + Tesla power wall setup of an equivalent size. A $70k truck* doesn't seem so expensive when you line it up against a $40k car and $60k of batteries.

Can you actually call this encryption? I think the term which is still in use today for (cryptographically) encrypted TV channels, at least in the UK, "scrambling", is the most appropriate here - in that you could still mostly see what was going on on the screen.

I fondly remember HBO's first attempt at "encryption" in Romania in the nineties, which was a simple and cheap analog filter. Needless to say that it was pirated almost instantly...

Which means that everybody who either doesn't use a proxy or does not care whether it's exposed what they are downloading can happily use Deluge. Using the term "nobody" you are exaggerating quite a bit, don't you think?

Instead of complaining and demanding that others fix something for you for free who are not affected by it, please consider contributing a fix yourself.

See my previous comment. LSP/intellisense support is available on vim/neovim and many other editors. It is not like it is an exclusivity to vscode. Also many people actually configure their vscode to use vim-like keyboard bindings because they actually like the separation of the different modes.

Macros, substitutions and search commands are useful for many things and an editor like vim/neovim/emacs is not only used for code.

Nobody ever talked about typing fast.

Not trying to write a lot or comparing your work to others is the easiest way to start.

A few sentences every day is all you need. Thinking that you need to write pages is where trouble begins, the thought of future work overwhelms people and they stop completely.

Such a beneficial activity, to get those incessant thoughts out of our mind, so we can have peace and quiet. Or perhaps that's just me xD

It also helps that nobody else will see it. I have a personal blog, https://langsoul.com, for public thoughts. Whist private ones, say on motivation and why I get out of bed each morning is kept private.

There's 10 comments by the main developer (Cas) on that specific issue. I wouldn't call that "silently ignores".

I support him on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/deluge_cas) where he sometimes posts updates but it's clear that he's very busy with other things (Including going through an illness) so I'm not blaming some open source maintainer for picking up a 10 year old, apparently hard to reproduce issue with a total of 45 comments.

The client can be used just fine, except for a small buggy behaviour in case if you are using a proxy which likely isn't used by the majority of users.

From a functional PoV, yes, timing seems to be relaxed by publishing sensor data every 60 seconds.

From an embedded system PoV, your sensor might be a 1-Wire protocol device with a super strict signal timing. How do you mix both timing requirements? How do you differentiate embedded projects requiring "precise timing" from those others requiring "every 60 seconds"?

Unless Toit provides drivers for all kind of buses, sensors and peripherals AND it orchestrates the GC with the strict timing requirements. Otherwise it's probably a good fit only if it just runs on a known controlled development board/architecture/platform.
A Supreme Court speech showdown is coming, and nobody knows what to expect
Thing is, they were genuine "issues". The bank developed internal software following the waterfall model, with 6-12 months between major releases. Each release had to have a project with a budget. Each release had enormous cost (with individual line items like "$1m: system testing" on the bill). And there was a somewhat passed rollout, but it was pretty much big bang at the end of the dev/test cycle.

After a release, there was a very short period of watchfulness where issues found in production would either be marked as "minor" (this will hold until the next release and the users be damned) or "major" and the entire system would be rolled back (for now). So every release had a bunch of awful bugs that drive users insane. They'd complain, of course, but the senior brass would just disperse "release notes" via fax to the branches and tell them how to work around issues. In other words "button it". So the users wouldn't create incident tickets.

Fast forward a few weeks, you're bored because you're waiting for project approval, so you make use of the incident process to make some improvements. Perhaps it crosses a line. But I had some direct managers (lower rungs) who loved the idea. "Fuck it", they'd say, "the process is there, use it!"

All that from taking the ITIL course seriously. If you're going to hack the system, understand it
I would say it would be great to merge with TypeScript.

It would greatly reduce the need of those crazy building tools nowadays. Now we have HTTP2, if only we can write and serve a bunch of TypeScript files directly. Be it browser, Node.js or Deno, you could use the same script file without setting up M*N different webpack.whatever.config.js files.

And it will also open up the possibility of optional runtime type checking which JavaScript as a glue language really needs.

TypeScript has been very cautious about adding non-JavaScript features, and kept its promise on JavaScript compatible, so I don't see big problems merging them. It's just people will need to figure out a spec to formalize the type system for TypeScript.

The only risk is there might be clash of the communities. But it also might get us great results where the whole community working on a great project together.
