What if your manager is in the middle of something? Even if they allow for the interruption trying to help, their mind may still be on the other task, and they likely will try to find the quickest solution to get back to what they're doing instead of the best solution.

Surely the two issues aren't of the same complexity.
I don't disagree. Unfortunately, this all falls on DoD-DISA. The NSA works with DISA to write the policy for how to secure systems (called STIGs) and also has 'Red Teams', but they aren't the arm that certifies these systems before coming online, nor are they the ones the ensure the systems stay secured as new vulnerabilities are found and patched -- that's DISA again.
Good, but without human drivers involved, emotions and then the fun is gone.

A lot of the justification for running JS in "places that are not the browser" is the availability of VMs designed for sandboxing coupled with it being the best supported language in browsers.

With wasm supporting VMs providing the same sandboxing and the ability to painlessly run more languages in the client, a lot of the incentive for running JS outside the browser will disappear for a lot of people.
There is a big distinction between houseshare (two people on an equal basis jointly renting from a third party), renting (one person is the property owner and the other isn't), and subletting (the person in the middle is both renter and landlord).

> they would literally only have to push a button to support linux

What. Why do people think that? Even if you use Unity, the DirectX/OpenGL distinction still matters, not to mention all other platform-specific stuff. Of course, with Unity you _can_ develop a very simple and unoptimised game that would be able to compile on all desktop and mobile platforms with one click — but when you start to dig down and try to do things effectively, you end up with a lot of platform-specific code.

In-memory implementations are very useful, especially for larger tests, but, again, I don't see anything in Haskell that makes it easier. For example, on the JVM tests often use Google's Jimfs[1] in-memory file system (the JVM has pluggable file systems implemented as Java interfaces), and for relational databases they use H2[2]. None of this requires any code changes, perhaps thanks to the JVM's extreme pluggability. The JVM uses SPIs for almost everything, from encryption to filesystems to sockets -- you can fake the entire OS (almost) in Java, and what you can't fake easily, you can still fake with an agent (unrelated, but starting in Java 9, even the JIT is pluggable, so you can control machine-code generation at any granularity you want). Just since my conversation here with chadaustin, I've written a small library that uses an agent to make the entire JVM use a virtual clock[3] -- again, with no code changes necessary in the tested code.

I don't know, other than good supervision by an experienced developer :) This one, though, isn't that good, IMO. Perhaps future effect systems will show us the way.
Grades rapidly become useless when all teachers have incentive to inflate them. The fear of random exclusion by an admissions committee (which is alleviated by the ability to apply to many schools) is replaced by the fear of random exclusion by a teacher who thinks that "teaching his kids a lesson," "giving them feedback," or "maintaining standards" is more important to their future than the grades he will give them (which is unavoidable and irreversible once encountered). Inevitably, too strong an emphasis on grades encourages kids to take only classes they know they can get As in, effectively forbidding them from pushing themselves, experimenting, or learning from the aforementioned group of "strict" teachers who definitely have something positive to offer even if they're in denial about the relative importance of grades vs what they have to teach. Simple workarounds like fixing the frequency distribution of grades aren't effective because the distribution of aptitude is far from uniform. Some classes of kids deserve to all get As; some classes deserve to all fail. If your system doesn't acknowledge this you incentivize people to shuffle their kids to avoid competition, negatively impacting the ability of smart kids to form groups, learn from other smart kids, and learn from the best teachers.

Standardized tests are much more evenhanded but not bias-free. Just as surely as an all-grades system forces grades upwards, an all-tests system forces uniformity on curricula. At the levels we are talking about, this almost certainly degrades their quality. If students pay for tests and the tests are administered by a company, tests incentivize a structure whereby students can pay for repeated chances at a test. Also, kids who have more time for preparation and money for tutors are put at an advantage.

Extracurriculars create another game with perverse incentives but they are almost certainly good for a child's physical and social development so ignoring them would arguably be worse as the opportunity cost would make participation inadvisable for "top" students. Meanwhile, extracurriculars certainly have something to offer the admissions process: contests with broad scope can serve as an alternative to standardized tests as a globally comparable measure. They also measure the much-ballyhooed "leadership skills" (which aren't nearly as easy to game as one might think; the truth comes out in the essays). When I was going through the process I wasn't convinced that leadership skills were important and this requirement chafed a bit. Now I suspect they are even more important than the admissions process gives them credit for and I can actually credit the whole process with doing me a bit of good.

The broad admissions system is far, far from perfect but the narrower alternatives certainly have plenty of their own problems.
Not to state the obvious, but it's considerably more difficult to traffic anything to New Zealand than it is to Holland or Germany.
Your third point isn't just a problem with translating Javascript, it is a problem in the VM designs (because it's much faster to support the required dynamism if you don't need to worry about concurrency). For me one of the most interesting things about web assembly is that it ditches so much of the current JS VM requirements that it finally allows for a path toward multi-threaded concurrency. It's going to be a long road to get high level languages on there (because I'm not sure I want to implement optimising method dispatch & GC in web assembly, and I predict those will take some time to arrive in wasm itself), but it is at least a start.

> The only real disadvantage is that you're feeding Node webpack-generated code, and not vanilla JS files.

This is what I mean.

Normally your chain would be:

ES2015/JSX -(Babel)-> Node code -(Browserify/etc)-> Browser code

With Webpack's "require" magic you end up with this:

ES2015/JSX -(Babel)-> Intermediate code -(Webpack)-> Browser code & Node code

This isn't necessarily wrong (you can make Webpack use Babel and thus merge the first two steps, I think) but right now it feels extremely wrong to me. I'm not yet convinced Webpack is a good idea either -- especially because the documentation is a sketchy mess at this point.

Webpack (like browserify) was written to generate bundles for the browser, not modules for Node. I have been wrong in the past and would be willing to suspend my disbelief if I were able to find any reliable information on how you're supposed to use Webpack for Node, but right now my gut feeling tells me it's a really bad idea and the Node support is a hacky afterthought at best.

Cut off supply? When the women get into trafficing from kidnapping... How?
I agree	with this.

Given that Javascript is the
undisputed king of browser languages, and the difficulties with
Javascript as compilation target are becoming apparent, I expect that
WebAssembly support will be something of a priority for browser makers. I also think that, as you point out, VM design in general has mostly focussed on sequential
computation, and concurrency is bolted on later. In part that's because concurrency is much harder, and
the underlying CPU support for concurrency is in	flux.
It's still of value today. Doing a project like this will teach you a ton of stuff you otherwise would either never learn or take for granted.

Don't worry about anything for now. Just do that release, having those doubts before a release is fatal. Just focus on the release for now. Things will be different after the release.
You make it seem as if lie detectors somewhat work, except that they have a stochastic failure rate of x%. They don't, they're snake oil. Whole libraries have been written about it, one can start at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygraph and follow the literature from there. No civilized country allows lie detectors to be used for any 'real' purposes except the US.

So no, it's not a worthwhile tradeoff, because it's hardly better than rolling dice.

I don't agree with your points - they echo the recent campaign by Spiegel Online; looking at your Wikipedia article, it seems more to be an issue with open borders and no passport control, and the fact that Germany is in the "middle" of Europe and a relatively rich country, which makes Germany a good target for trafficking.

The numbers of yearly cases seem to be fairly low (about 700-800 cases per year in your Wiki-article), and pimps who force people into prostitution are arrested and jailed.

If anything, I'd say that legality makes it much better for these forced prostitutes to escape - they don't have any fear of persecution.

>Also there is the silly issue, of woman losing her unemployment status because she didn't refused to work as a prostitute.

That was a single mistake - the Arbeitsagentur accidentally sent along a job offer which was from a brothel, and the media made it into a big case (see http://www.spiegel.de/karriere/berufsleben/arbeitsagentur-in... ). Of course she didn't have to take the job, there have been rulings that you can't force unemployed to work as prostitutes (see same article).

IMO the last few races have been really boring. Lewis hovered 2 - 3 seconds behind Nico and could do nothing. Sure, both of them are 'managing' the race... but as soon as they both left the start line and Lewis was behind, we had to wati 33 laps before the pit stops before any action. Then when nothing happened we had to wait for the last 5 laps to see if anything would change.

There was some mid-field fighting, but nothing too interesting.

And Monaco - OMG. Most tedious race ever. You actually start wishing someone would crash just to make it interesting. Sure, for the drivers it is 100% concentration for the whole race.... but for us spectators? Nothing freeking happens. Qualifying is 99.99% of the race.

Heh, I'll simply quote my own comment from 6 years ago, when AirBnB was first featured on HN:

> I'm a couchsurfing afficionado as well, but this site appeals to me, partially because it ISN'T free. I always feel too obliged to my hosts, and handing over a small some of money would assuage my guilt that I hadn't thanked them enough.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=653727

To be clear, Couchsurfing was entirely no-money -- you didn't pay the hosts either, the idea was you "pay-it-forward". Are you asking for a paid marketplace with no fees?

Anyway, you can disintermediate AirBnB. The last AirBnB I stayed in, in HK, I booked for 3 days via AirBnB and then decided to stay 3 weeks, paying the owners in cash.

(I also did that with an Uber driver in San Jose. We'd gone to the office in an Uber, but I realised I needed to head home, and my phone was broken. The driver asked my friend to book a journey via Lyft, as he wanted the ratings from that platform. Then I needed a 3rd journey, and realised I could simply pay him in cash. Makes you realise that all marketplace sites do is connect people, once two adults are in contact with each other they can arrange any economic deals they want).
Could you describe a usecase for that?
I can't believe in releases. Just release meant nothing usually, isn't it?
Yes I don't recommend installing the Facebook app, the application is doing shady things with contacts, messages and tries to gather as much data as it can.

There's nothing interesting in any iBeacon sold, they're just (mostly) Nordic 2.4GHz chips in cool package. What matters is the software and related services; in this case Facebook has a chance to make iBeacons actually useful for retailers because they want to make Facebook app itself be able to use beacons to deliver you localized information.
