Of course I know what is lança-perfume. You missed the point though:

> “The composition of these drugs varies a lot. It’s generally a mixture of alcohol, ether and chloroform in different portions," explained Garcia, certain that the lança-perfume used nowadays is way more powerful that what the people on the good ol’ Carnival balls used back in the day.

The point is that it's not the same thing and it's causing a new epidemic amongst the youth.
You haven't explained why that is 'damage' - only that there is difference from people who went to school.
in a nutshell, close the skills/talent gap. not enough people qualified for the million or so open roles. close that gap somehow.
when its only the 0.1% that see any benefit in that growth, why bother? The point obviously was to compare like for like.

This is another Nautilus article, by Julian Barbour, on the arrow of time.
http://nautil.us/issue/9/time/the-mystery-of-times-arrow
I was here the first time. I'm here now. This is so totally different than 1999. In 1999, the boom included a lot of counter-culture people. Hackerspaces were still hidden underground things, and the technology was so new, a lot of pie-in-the-sky dreamers were here trying to make their way in the world.

This time around, there is an established norm for how the startup scene works, and that scene requires MBAs and business suits. The people who have come around to take advantage this time are not nerds, they're not tech people, they're people of all sorts. I think the best way to so describe them is to say that these are normal people. That's fine anywhere else, but not in SF, home of the weirdos.

SF has NEVER been a town of normal people. This gentrification process is basically turning SF into the Valley. The old days where burning man types held parties in their warehouses are long gone now. The first dot com boom made millionaires out of some of these weirdos, like JWZ. But this boom is not doing that. The people getting rich now came to SF just to get rich, and they have no interest in being weird, burning man, or any of the SF-style weirdness.

Yes, in 1999 artists had to leave SF. But at that time, it was just some artists and weirdos leaving. This time, it's ALL of them leaving. There are no more blue collar people in SF. No more weirdos in SF. No more poets in SF. It's a real shame, and while it could have happened in 1999, it didn't quite get going enough to really do the damage that's being done this time around.

Irrelephant comment, but Thanks. I'm building a tool for Investors and I think this is the single best advice on the product I've found on Internet yet!
Perhaps the best thanks we can give for future soldiers is to be wary again when politicians drum up another foreign war.
Long time San Franciscans tend to like their space and (historic) views, both of which are lost with more high rises. Ed Lee, as was the case with Willie Brown, doesn't seem to care for those things. Which in turn angers long time residents.

As well, this boom and bust cycle (previous dcom era) fueled by outsiders makes it hard to live here for people who wish to make it their long-term or permanent home. The influx, transitions and seeming carelessness for our city & it's people can be very hard on families who have lived here for generations. This is why articles like this are written for multiple generations, as seen by some of the replies to the OP.
I'm not a C++11 developer, I've done a little C++ in the past. What is the pride in putting all the code in the header file? Shouldn't the declarations be there, and the definitions be pulled out into a .cpp file? Is it somehow smaller, faster, more convenient to have it all in a header file?

Wow, before reading this article, I had no idea how dangerous and naive it'd be to just take whatever I read on HN at face value. This article is, simply put, false.

As a Brazilian living in Brazil, I'm quite shocked and amazed this kind of yellow journalism is being presented as fact. When it comes to drugs, Brazil's number one enemy is crack-cocaine. Anyone who lives here knows that, specially if you get to know crack addicts. Loló addicts? No such a thing, from my experience. Hell, it's considered a light drug by many and because of that, also a gateway drug.

This article reads like opportunistic fearmongering. It's light-years from Brazil's reality and it's an insult to anyone who has to cope with violence and drug issues over here.
When there is bullying, anything other than a zero tolerance policy amounts to the school supporting the bullies.

The reason for this is that the school is what forces the victim into contact with the bullies, and limits the victims strategies for handling them.

I always find it puzzling that people throw away dynamic typing entirely. You can't make decisions about what's best for me based on rules of thumb like "as much static typing as possible," your use cases probably don't match mine if you don't understand why anyone would want dynamic typing.
> ok, so non-following of the full set of details of a full-fledged democratic process makes the will of the people illegitimate.

It makes the referendum illegitimate and its results questionable.

> Are you kidding me?

No, I'm not. For what it's worth, I'm not opposed to the idea of referendum at all, as long as it is done legally. I'm sure that if Moscow was so bent on having Crimea, they could have come to a political agreement with Kiev, and it would be legal and Crimea wouldn't have all those problems it's having now (e.g. lack of water, power, food price surges, crippled transport connections with the mainland, etc.). And Russia would have spent a lot less compared to what it's spending now on the war, maintaining a semblance of normal life in Crimea, and the sanctions.

The problem is that was not the goal of the folks in Moscow. They wanted to create a political crisis so they seized Crimea by force. When it didn't work, they inserted Girkin in Donbass. If Ukraine had given up Donbass just like it did Crimea, the next insertion would probably be Kharkov. And so on. It's not Crimea or Donbass the Kremlin is after, it's all of Ukraine - it's practically written on the wall. The nazi scares and the rest of the Russian propaganda are just an effort to garner sympathy from abroad for the military invasion.

I would trust the government to do the things it is good at: regulation, enforcement and penalties. They can contract away the code auditing, security reviews, penetration testing, etc.

The government is needed because the free market provides no real way to hit back at companies that harm customers with defective products. In an ideal world, customers would boycott companies that misbehaved, but in reality this never happens. Victims simply do not stop doing business with companies that victimize them. Last time I checked, my local Target and Home Depot were chock-full of customers, despite their demonstrated inability to handle their customers' data securely.

EDIT:

And, it would be the FTC, not the FCC who would apply such regulation. Indeed, they already list Privacy and Security as within their power to regulate: [1]. In fact their site even has a section dedicated to Internet Of Things: [2]. The problem seems to not be that they are uninvolved, they simply seem to have no teeth.

I was reading about computation the other day and stumbled upon a concept where something can't be computable if it requires more operations than there is energy in the universe to do the operations. While reading the post you linked to, it struck me that the speed of light is a similar barrier to us. We can't travel the speed of light.

You probably thought this because it is repeated ad nauseum on HN regardless of if it is correct. Any SF housing thread turns into a mindless echo chamber of "NIMBYS!" and "The planning commission is to blame for the lack of new housing".

Why a macro? Why not just define that comparator as a function?

match (a, b) {
(x, y) if x.is_nan() && y.is_nan() => Ordering::Equal,
(x, _) if x.is_nan() => Ordering::Greater,
(_, y) if y.is_nan() => Ordering::Less,
(_, _) => a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap()
}
}

xs.sort_by(value_nans_last);

>The bad is that European people aren't a single stock, they don't like to be compared to each other, or to be put on similar benchmarks

This needs to change, and it will happen - in spite of statements to the contrary - because young people all over Europe are moving to other countries, the so-called 'greener pastures' - and thus the integration and cultural osmosis is in process. Spanish workers moving to Germany are becoming less Spanish; Romanians moving to Austria, less Romanian. This is a good thing, and will - over time spans of 5..10 years - result in the badly needed cross-pollination. Its very clear in Europe that cultural mores and disciplines which result in prejudice and exclusion need to be abandoned - I see precisely this happening at the youth level, and less so in the middle-age bracket - but such is life.

Ok, so what do you suggest that people that haven't experienced the exact same thing as you say instead? We are simply human beings and we all have different moments in this thing we call "life". You chose to go and spend those by killing people in a specific place on this planet for some sort of cause you believe in, while I do other things with my life in other places of this planet. We end up having different lives, with different ways of looking at things, because we are ultimately shaped differently.

Say I'm a person who doesn't know how to respond to you telling me you went to war. It might even be something that makes me unsure of how I feel about you. Can you not let me be human like that? Am I really that bad for just reacting? I have to think exactly what you are thinking and reacting in the way you would prefer?

It's very simple. Since I didn't go to war, I don't understand you. I don't understand your experiences, I don't understand why you did it, what it means to me and I don't understand how you feel about me not going. I don't understand it, so like the unknowing primate I am, I just repeat what everyone else is doing, because that must be correct, right? So I say 'Thank you' and let the awkward elephant into the room.
Interesting point: "when we think about how technology interacts with labor market we think of substitution of labor with machinery. [...] What is neglected is that it complements us as well. Many activities require a mixture of things. it requires a mixture of information process and creativity, motor power and dexterity. if those things need to be done together if you make one cheaper and more productive, you increase the value of the other."

These are transitionary days, the lines are being blurred. I would say that the bracket of folks who talk about these issues are not the same as those doing something about it - its far easier for a middle-aged, entrenched worker to get on the Internet and complain about these issues than it is to see the guys who are crossing borders and working in a new culture to break down the typically insular nature of contemporary European life. You can see this internationalization factor at very specific strata - however, as usual, the squeaky wheel gets the grease ..

San Francisco has a soul?

It's a port city. Like New York, Vancouver or any other city connected to the outside world San Francisco gets waves of different immigrants with each generation. Today's wealth is just another gold rush, of which SF has seen many. It's a boom-and-bust city.

Ask HN: What is a good “dollar value” equity offering nowadays?
I'm on the prowl for a new job and am expecting several offers in the coming weeks (hence the throwaway). I'd like to get a firm grasp on what to expect for equity. My role would be senior engineer, tech lead, or engineering manager. I'm currently a top performer at a well-known start-up, have a good resume, and interview really well.

Besides some limited feedback from peers, most of what I have to go off regarding equity is here:

https://www.wealthfront.com/tools/startup-salary-equity-compensation

Unfortunately this data is segmented by company size as opposed to company valuation (or FMV) at the time of grant. Ideally, I'd like to get some idea of what a good "dollar value" equity offering might be, if you compute "dollar value" as:

dollar value = %ownership * current valuation (not FMV)

For example, 50,000 options out of 100,000,000 total issued would be 5 basis points. If the company's current valuation (not FMV) is $150m, that'd be $75,000 in "dollar value". I think putting options in these terms makes the most sense, as it becomes easy to value them against the company's growth. In the above case, if the company quadruples, I stand to gain about 4 x $75,000 (minus price to exercise). I'm very familiar with how options work, FMV vs actual valuation, strike price, vesting, etc... no help needed there.

Just looking for some data points about how much "dollar value" in equity companies are offering, and can be negotiated for, nowadays. For example, how many RSUs are Google and FB giving out? How about start-ups? How much will it vary with company stage (seems like it should remain roughly constant)?

Thanks.
It should be fine. The only thing I'd be weary about is initial page load times. Try and keep your "app" light, or if you're just using the HTML/CSS from Ionic then that isnt a concern at all.

I don't think OP wasn't judging anyone, you took his comment a little too personally.

The majority people on this site may find this service to be useful, but I gurantee, outside of the SV bubble, this service would get laughed at by the actual majority of Americans.

The market here is exclusively the faux rich. If your time was actually this valueable you would have a real assistant. The service as useful as a upper middle class doggy spa. It's viable, but it fails to solve any _real_ problems.
Right, and the Rust equivalent would be to define a newtype that wraps your floating point type and defines the ordering semantics you want; in Ruby, you have changed the behavior for everything that uses Floats (including other libraries that may depend on this behavior), while in Rust you can use your newtype, other libraries can use standard floating point behavior, and you won't have any confusion about who wants which semantics.

This is highly misleading. The arrow of time is not thermodynamic, it's quantum. It's defined by increased entanglement, not increased entropy.

That's not at all what I remember from physics class when I was at university, and would seem to imply (incorrectly) that non-QM models can't produce an arrow of time.
Header libraries are easier to add to your project because there are no build scripts to figure out or cross-compiling to do or whatever. A lot of Boost is header-only, for example. GLM (OpenGL Mathematics), too, is header-only. OTOH if you end up modifying a header that's included in a whole bunch of places, woe unto you.
"It will overflow to filler[3]"

Not with any correct C compiler, it wont. Here's a simple test program I ran on Linux:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
char filler[16] = {0};
int i;
unsigned short s1 = 0xFFFF;
unsigned long l1 = 0xFFFFFFFF;

filler[0] = (unsigned short)s1;
filler[2] = (unsigned short)s1;
filler[4] = (unsigned long)l1;

for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
printf("filler[%d] = %d\n", i, filler[i]);
}

And when you run it, all the elements of filler that haven't been explicitly assigned to are still 0, even though the unsigned shorts and longs that were assigned to them have '1' in all their bits:

$ gcc filler.c
$ ./a.out
filler[0] = -1
filler[1] = 0
filler[2] = -1
filler[3] = 0
filler[4] = -1
filler[5] = 0
filler[6] = 0
filler[7] = 0

Since htons() swaps the bytes in its result, you should just be able to assign the value it returns directly:

struct sockaddr_in serv_addr;
...
serv_addr.sin_port = htons(port);

That goes back to what someone else questioned: Should we not address the problem more directly with devices that take action themselves?

> what's wrong with [CSV]?

The encoding, line endings, and the used separators are random. Encoding/decoding behavior may be locale-dependent. E.g. if you use Excel with a de-DE locale to create a CSV file, Excel with a en-US locale won't open it. The former uses ';' as separators and the latter expects ','.

Since the format is so (seemingly) simple, there are millions of ad hoc implementations out there. Naturally, most of them are horribly broken.

Fun fact: ASCII actually reserved control characters for this stuff. 1F is the "unit separator" and 1E is the "record separator". There is even a "group separator" (1D) and a "file separator" (1C).
