This suggests that you are going to need more than $500,000 as you wait around for payment.

Given you are almost dead and if don't have any options then go to your buyer and say to them unless you pay now there will never be a product. Maybe offer them some period of exclusivity in return for paying now.

I'm guessing this just controls the tumors and prolongs their life? That is great but most people have serious side effects or the cancer becomes immune to these drugs. But we are headed in the right direction. My father passed away from melanoma a year ago. Since I have a high chance of getting this later in life, I'm happy that we are advancing this quickly.
What types of errors would cause one of the tests to fail? Is it mostly testing for hardware errors, or are there any software logic errors that could make it to production, but be caught by one of the tests several months down the road? The only software related items I can think of are edge cases where a built in test is based on real time input. Kind of like running the calculations through multiple independent implementations of the software.

I thought the Go runtime runs foreign code on M:M threads; e.g. when Go time calls foreign code, it dedicates a thread to it. This is so foreign libraries (which are unaware of yielding to the Go scheduler when they do I/O) don't block a thread with multiple goroutines scheduled on it. I do not think Nim code can run "in a goroutine".
To be fair this seems to be more of a classic example of a documentation or training problem. Right from your link:

> During the mishap sequence, the MP started engines, perfomled an IBIT, and had a fully
functioning Flight Control System. Subsequently, the MP shut down engines to allow
maintenance personnel to service the Stored Energy System. During engine shut down,
the MA's Auxiliary Power System (APU) was running. The MP believed the APU
provided continuous power to the Flight Control System, and therefore another IBIT after
engine restart was unnecessary. This belief was based on academic training, technical
data system description, and was shared by most F/A-22 personnel interviewed during
the investigation.

And the reason you couldn't setup your stores in a similar fashion?

myStore.setLoading(true);
myStore.save(...);

Where the handling is in your action handler for whatever event was raised... This assumes you do your backend data access in the store itself... there are other options.
The last time I checked, tcc lacked even a simple AST. This led to some pretty weird emitted code (such as swapping parameters on the stack.) Implementing an AST is not hard, just push and pop nodes on a stack. It also makes a nice front-end/back-end interface.
I would _love_ a modern version of these - a cheap, long lasting, "fast enough", super portable and durable machine to run a lightweight linux distro on. The closest thing like it I can think of is the Samsung Series 3, but I've heard it's a bit fragile.

> El Al has had a better security record without the digital "strip searches" and junk-grabbing.

Actually, El Al is just as bad as well. El Al also had an open and explicit policy of racial profiling until last year (when it was ruled illegal in court to practice this policy openly[0]). If you are white and carry a US or Israeli passport, you'll breeze right through. But the experience of flying El Al is very different if you:

a) have an Arab name, or

b) "look" Arab, or

c) are Palestinian.

El Al has been very heavily criticized by Arab Jews (yes, they exist) as well as non-Arab and Arab Muslims and non-Muslim Palestinians for treating the aforementioned groups very badly. There have been multiple cases of Arabs, Muslims, and/or Palestinians winning civil suits against El Al for their shocking treatment of these groups - in many ways worse than what the TSA is usually criticized for doing.

By the way, this doesn't happen only in Israel, but in other countries as well (including the US), which let El Al conduct their own security procedures at foreign airports for flights to Israel. In at least one lawsuit, the plaintiffs won and were awarded five figures in part because their mistreatment by El Al happened in New York, where open[1] racial profiling is illegal.

I have no clue what point you're trying to make.

> The counters don't need to be 64-bits: Programs don't need a random number in one process and the 4 billionth only.

If this is going to be used for a CSPRNG, you have to take into account adversarial conditions. A 32 bit counter leaves insufficient safety margin: it's conceivable an attacker could induce an application to generate so many random numbers that the counter wraps around, causing another process to generate a duplicate random number. It may seem unlikely, but time after time security researchers have demonstrated that attacks previously considered "unlikely" are possible.

Seriously, this site is completely unreadable on my iPhone. I don't mean that it's ugly or difficult to read, I mean I literally can't read it. I can't find any way to actually get much of the text on to the screen so I can see what it actually says.

Not really. Think of it in terms of the number of assumptions necessary for each scenario to be true. For the case of spying, the only assumption necessary is that there will eventually be a confluence of opportunity for malfeasance and someone inclined towards unethical behavior. What is the probability that these two events occur simultaneously eventually? Very high indeed. A highly plausible scenario would be simply an analyst looking up information against a political candidate they don't like and leaking personal information they find to sink a campaign. The fact that analysts have spied on romantic interests shows that opportunity and disposition has already occurred. The plausible scenarios only get more sinister from there.

When it comes to chemtrails, a whole string of highly improbable assumptions are necessary for it to be true. The probability of these two cases are not comparable.

This looks useful, particularly because I can set up my own Streaks to measure. I'll give you my $4.99 and let you know further thoughts.
Possibly. A counterpoint is that I have created many custom and private to-do apps and stuck with none of them! I find the Health integration with my walking target quite sticky and haven't seen that before.

I'm not familiar with Habit RPG, but yes, the simplicity I think is important.

> I do not think Nim code can run "in a goroutine".

It does. Don't forget that this is gccgo so it is possible to use plain C functions as goroutines. Nim is translated to C and with the help of a macro I convert Nim functions with an arbitrary number of arguments into ones with a single void* arg that gccgo wants for its 'go' keyword implementation:

extern void* __go_go(void (*f)(void *), void *);
UAC can be set to always automatically elevate without any prompt even in Win10 (disabling UAC completely would kill Metro apps). I prefer the "Always Prompt" configuration myself and it is unfortunate it was ignored when Win8's task manager was designed for example. Win9x was not affected by the WMF SetAbortProc escape problem at all unless you are printing (I think the escapes were simply ignored). Linux is better on older machines because it gets security updates and has ASLR and other exploit mitigations etc (though not all are useful without NX) and it happened to be free.
No, that was precisely my point :) sometimes it is, sometimes it's not. And you need to know what are you buying.
It's interesting to me how the art world seems to stand alone on their opinion about copies. Literature, music, software... in every other area we believe that if a copy can't be told from its master they must both have equal value. I can't imagine someone saying that they'd rather buy the hard drive someone saved their work on instead of a copy transmitted over the network.

Maybe art collectors are wrong about forgeries - if forgeries don't provide the same mental dividend that real paintings do, wouldn't you be able to tell the difference without an X-ray machine?
Actually I think I might if only because your team (and manager!) probably affects your well being much more than what company it is.

But I can also see why it seems inconvenient to have many people from the same company post as well.

I remember this from an engineering ethics case study back in college. The professor had the gal to blame the software engineers for the bug. I, as an EE, asked why would you blame the controls when the engineer designed a system with the capability of producing enough radiation to kill a human. Prof just said I was wrong and moved on...
Would make for a very interesting book. (If there isn't one available already)
I'd disagree with wanting candidates to be confident in their solutions. You should be confident in a solution when the tests pass - and maybe, not even then.
> You cannot "create petrol" after it runs out ... unless you spend ... energy

I mentioned energy already. If you have energy you can literally create petrol from thin air.

> And there are tons of minerals we use that are of limited supply and non-recycle once used.

No there aren't. If you think there are any then post the name of one.

> Besides any "recycle" cycle creates byproducts that we can't pile up forever.

Those byproducts are made of useful atoms, there is no reason we can not process them. It costs energy to do so, so it's not worth it right now, but that doesn't mean it will always be like that.

The Earth will never run out of resources, it can't. All you need is energy, and the universe has a stupendous amount of that, we just need to harness it.
Eliminating memory allocations made tcc extremely fast, They use a value stack rather than an AST. I just think an AST is a bit easier to follow because it means the parser has less code generation logic embedded in it.
I agree because my gut tells me that all the important lessons have been covered. Except "know when to fold 'em". That's a class worth testing out of.

> It baffles my mind how fractional reserve banking is even legal.

Why? You couldn't let out loans as a bank at all if you had to maintain 100% reserves.

Plus how would you possibly enforce that? I can't lend my brother $100 with the promise to pay it back now?

Nor do they "make up" money. They have the money when they lend it out, it comes from the "fractional reserve" that they are required to have, or cash assets above and beyond that.

Likewise I could personally loan out money up to the amount of money I have, even with fractional banking, but I couldn't loan out money up to my entire net worth, as it's not all liquid.
Show HN: Woofmark: a modular, progressive Markdown and HTML editor
Singapore is an interesting place for sure. I've been a half dozen times for work and fun. The biggest hindrance to Singapore startups is the Singapore government. Their iron-fisted approach to things from chewing gum, drugs, and even dancing on tables (for example) is antithetical to the dual veins of libertarian and liberal US political thought which is so firmly entrenched in Silicon Valley. Many believe that these competing, but sometimes sympathetically overlapping political schools are what made (and currently make) Silicon Valley so great.

Hard to convince a programmer to move from SF to SG if they're going to be hanged for smoking a spliff. While the drug use is just an example, it just illustrates the difference of Laissez Faire in the US vs What's Best for the Country in SG.

The first order Hyundai shipyard received was built WHILE the dry dock was being built AROUND the ship.

The Leveson paper is quite long, and not all parts are equally important:

Skim Sections 1 and 2. You should understand the basics of the Therac-25's design and how it was used. (You may also find this figure a helpful accompaniment to Figure 1 on page 4.)
Skim Sections 3.1-3.3, which detail a few of the Therac-25 incidents.
Read Sections 3.4 and 3.5. These detail a particular incident, the software bug that led to it, and the response to the bug. Pay close attention to 3.5.3, which describes the bug.
Skip Section 3.6. (It describes an additional incident and a different bug—feel free to read if you are interested, though)
Read Section 4 closely.
