I guess it differs between people, what is easier to grasp :) . Pressure of air makes a real physical force (actually, pressure is defined as that total force divided by area). At the same time deflection downward, which implies an upward force, is correct but doesn't show the mechanism how actually that implied force is born. It is born out of the difference of pressure between top of the screwdriver and the bottom - at the bottom you have more or less undisturbed ambient pressure, at the top the flow reduces the pressure.

What was interesting to me is Ben's experiment with long enough cone which failed to get lift. Shouldn't be so, I think. The problem could be that his air jet is relatively narrow - so with a long cone, which makes an angle with the stream not the whole cone gets flown over, and not the whole area is under the reduced pressure. It would be very interesting to see if a wider air jet would still fail to lift the long tapered cone.

I'm surprised they don't cite the research of David Eagleman. He's done very solid research to untangle the questions of subjective time perception:

> Now with Swift quickly winning over my ever affectionate engineer heart, I still find myself enjoying my time in Objective-C.

I feel similar when it comes to Objective-C programming. Although the language is quite ugly and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone (of course nowadays you should use Swift instead!), I still enjoy programming in Objective-C because I'm fluent with it and I'm familiar with the gotchas.

Surprisingly this is also the case with JavaScript and PHP. Both popular languages (actually industry standard for webdevs) I know by heart and enjoy using, but at the same time ugly and infamous for their design flaws.

Swift seems to be a well designed language and I'm really curious if and how it will be adopted outside the Apple ecosystem now that it has been announced open source. Maybe in a few years, I'll be using Swift not only for Apple development but also for web development and shell scripting. Although I guess Swift programming would feel quite different in other environments because you may have to use other frameworks. But why use several languages if you have one that works for everything.
It is correct to say that the static pressure is atmospheric pressure. Inside the nozzle the pressure was 100psi when stationary, the static pressure was traded for dynamic pressure when it exited the confinement of the pressure vessel.
I recently read this article, which is a nice primer: https://www.airpair.com/javascript/posts/the-mind-boggling-u...

I would not say that it answers all of your questions, but I thought it was nice. I guess the short answer for me was CommonJS and thus Browserify on the front-end.

Note: I'm not a JS expert, but at work we have a number of repos written in JS, both "back-end" Node.js projects, and "front-end" JS and a Chrome extension (also JS). I know for a fact that I don't know what I'm doing (I am not going to take the time to learn about CommonJS, AMD, UMD, "Interop", etc., and I've just learned the basics of ES5 and am not eager to rush into ES6 or Babel) and when I find myself in such cases I like to take the simplest approach that seems to work.
It is so easy to tell people how they should behave from the outside.

I am portuguese and my country is quite similar to Greece. I do know it quite well.

Many of those behaviors have deep roots in our societies. It just doesn't work someone from the outside coming and shouting at us how 10 million people should behave.

Try to leave in our countries for an year, then see how things are.

That is what I got from On the day it happened, I figured out he got in by taking over my Harvard alumni email and then requesting that a new password from Facebook be sent there.

Gaining control of email accounts is how other accounts are typically captured when multi-factor auth is not enabled, of course. The question is how exactly the attacker got into Thurston's email account at Harvard. The reset instructions read like answering a verification question is all that is needed to change the password without knowing the original password. That would mean two lessons:

1. Harvard should add at least one additional step to this procedure, such as requiring confirmation through a secondary email address.

2. Nobody should ever use publicly available information as answers for password reset "security" questions.

(Both not exactly surprising insights here, of course...)

What still doesn't add up is the part about the attacker "creating gmail account like yours".
>The EU was never to be a transfer union, this setup was required to get the large economic countries to accept the weaker countries being admitted.

Not compensating economically weaker countries in a currency union is completely unjust and immoral. Weaker countries give up the ability to control exchange rates. And they have to deal with trading in stronger currency than they would if they were going it alone. This makes their exports relatively unattractive.

> The IMF is pulling back because they were overly generous giving the Greek government far more support that rules generally permitted.

I think the IMF is pulling back because they can't stomach this crap anymore.

> Greece has the highest military spending vs GDP of any NATO nation second to the US.

Right so French and German defense contractors bribed previous Greek politicians to buy weapons systems on credit. And the ECB etc are dead set that that part of the Greek budget continue as usual.

Right.
I have lived in more than a few countries over the past ten years, which has helped me to understand my own country better, both in terms of what we do wrong, and also, what we do right.

> Your mention of fundamental human rights is a bit odd; the US (for constitutional reasons) has not fully signed up to the UDHR.

Eleanor Roosevelt helped to draft the UDHR, and the United States voted in favor of its adoption in 1948.

That said, we have many problems in the US. Civil forfeiture is one of those, as are privatized prisons -- and the general barbarism of our penal system.

But none of those are caused by free speech, and none of them would be solved by eliminating it.
Glancing at this, it has some clearly outdated information... And it has a lot of links but I don't see a lot of meaty information. It's very shallow.

JS best practices are questionable at best. As an example, when React came out everyone was saying how much of a terrible idea it was (with me being one of those people, unfortunately), and how templates and code should be kept separate... But then I tried it, and I realized just how wrong I was. It makes a lot of sense to keep related things together. Your component's logic / template can be in one place, and your application logic is kept elsewhere.

I read a lot about JS, and I get the impression a lot of people are just hacking together websites with JS sprinkled on top, or hackathon-style apps that they don't plan on maintaining for longer that a few weeks. So their "best practices" end up being questionable at best. Basically, who are you to claim that whatever you're doing is a "best practice"? It seems like a pretty bold claim, so I'd argue that it's not unreasonable to expect someone to back up their claims.

As a side-note, why don't people ever talk about testing? And not just linking to some tools, but actually talking about how you figure out what things are worth testing, and how you test em.
The reason that seems quite reasonable to me is this (now deleted, whatever the reason) reply on quora: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CI9iYW7VAAAzzJN.png
The hardest part of learning React is trying to figure out which incarnation of flux one should use.
Apple (in England) copper-bottoms laws, and require too much documentation.

When a person dies their estate goes through probabte. You get official documents as a result. That documentarion is effectively a court order - they are good enough to get banks to release funds from the dead person's account to the executor of the will.

Apple sometimes do not recognise those documents and refuse to unlock devices that used to belong to dead people, even if the device is mentioned in the dead person's will.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-26448158

Here they're not asking for access to the information - they just want the device to be unlocked. Apple recognised, after publication, that they'd made an error in this case, but they maintain that a court order is required for access to iCloud accounts. But they don't recognise grants of probate as valid court orders.
Being greek in the same age group I dare to say that what you support is a blatant and dangerously ignorant lie. There are tons of people that have law or engineering degrees and would be grateful for a supermarket cashier job or flipping burgers. There is a serious problem with greek young people, they are basically a burnt generation, doomed to either chronic unemployment, ridiculously low-paying jobs (<500 euro/mo), or emigration, so I find your assertion deeply insulting.

I'm getting tired of the "lazy, tax-evading, early retiring greeks" mantra being repeated everywhere. I expect generalisations from reddit, but I expected something better from HN.
No, most of the source released is not under a virulent license. They are not required to provide it.

While I haven't exactly conducted an in-depth study, dang seems to have a fairly even hand when it comes to moderation.

HN, after all, should be about building stuff, not the outrage du jour.

* It doesn't feel like HackersNews. I think you should follow some of the elements from the web app (Orange colour, HN logo etc)

* I wasn't comfortable providing login credentials. How are you handling login / storing my details?

* I'd like to see more posts per page. Feels harder to scan read the posts than on the current HN site

* Filter in top right looks like a location / near me icon. Didn't expect it to display filter options

* How do I see my profile? I'm logged in, but no indication that I am

* Having to click on comments to see 'no comments' feels odd

* The number of upvotes / comments per post is important, feels very buried (couldn't find upvotes)
Leave it to the NYT to not even consider minimum wage increases as a contributing cause of unemployment for new or unskilled workers.
This is big news. Java should have had this one from the start.

My question is, what took so long? What prevented it?
> just compare - having your own currency, you could have covered the 14% deficit just by printing those money

Perhaps most glaring is the ECB's current Quantitative Easing effort to the tune of 1 trillion euros, buying assets and bonds in every country but greece [1]. This devaluing of currency is paid for by all users of the Euro, including greek. And yet it is used to prop up the same banks and countries greek lends from on conditions of austerity?

1. http://www.ecb.europa.eu/mopo/implement/omt/html/index.en.ht...
I had a good chuckle at that. It instantly reminded me of the Itanium sales forecasts[1]. It's like people are afraid to say "I don't know" (especially when money is involved) and just end up telling people what they want to hear.

"Facebook tends to “memorialise” their account – freeze them so they can be viewed, but providing no access to past messages. [...] Facebook also offended a fair number of bereaved people with its Year in Review clips [...] The problem was that for some, these were pictures of dead loved ones."

Here is something I really don't understand. For some reason it's apparently preferred, both by Facebook as well as people overall, to rub out a deceased person's digital existence - as opposed to preserving a bit of their life and writing for posterity.

To me, the "memorialization" of FB accounts looks like an almost cynical choice of words considering what it actually entails. Do we really prefer to pretend dead people never existed in the first place?
I was a huge fan until I read this

http://talk.commonmark.org/t/heading-not-working/819

The kind of language markdown represent shouldn't be so hard to evolve to meet changing requirements, and yet here they are spinning in circles on a fairly modern representation that sought to be the long term solution to the language fragmentation.

I guess that's the intrinsic limit of mixing semmantic and syntax.
Option 3 is to implement a proper fiscal union. It's not clear how best to go forward with that (and as much as I'm in favor, it looks politically unrealistic right now), but it is clear that it's the only option for long-term survival of the Eurozone.
I didn't read the article, but I get the drift. I knew a guy was in a very unhappy marriage. He didn't have a large online presence, but his posts and pictures were important to him. You couldn't tell he was in a unhappy marriage--unless you knew him. His wife was not in any of his pictures, nor did he talk about her.

Well he died in his sleep one night. The next day, all his accounts were taken down. I don't know who removed all his accounts, but they were gone. My point is unless you have an agreement, or the surviving spouse is slandered in some way; I think, in most cases, if the surviving spouse should just use the passwords to convey the obituary notice.

(I think I was bothered with just how quick his accounts vanished? All his accounts were on free sites. I didn't see any need to close them all down. Plus, after all the verbal abuse, and drama--his only enjoyment, or escapism was going online?)
Alternatives to wordprocessors
I'm looking for a general purpose writing tool, for writing letters, documentation, jot down notes and so on in pure text, and not be dependent on a certain piece of software like Word for the writing part but it could be as simple as Notepad or as advanced as Vim.

At some point I might need these writings to be presentable to others in form of a PDF, with formatting: like headers, bold, italic, having a page header, a footer and so on.

Any pointers to where I might look to?
It's a good guideline for JavaScript developers though there are more to be added.
There have been significant scalability improvements in that time (9.2, 9.5). There also have been lots of smaller improvements in single threaded performance in general, leading to rather noticeable aggregate improvements.

That's all for the cases where the same query plan is used in 9.0 and 9.5 - the differences where new type of plans (say index only scans) are often very large.

In short: yes.
Forgiving all the debt to Greece causes a worldwide financial collapse.

No. Greece is too small for its default to be that important, especially given that the vast majority of debt is actually now in the hands of governments and government institutions.
Ask HN: Took a pay cut for a new job, now want a pay rise
Hi everyone,

I've had a slightly bumpy career and need some advice. I had a good job for a few years. I left that job for another, but I was forced to leave after a few months as my contract was torn up and I didn't agree with the new one.

I then spent just over a year unemployed (for the first 7/8 months it was out of choice). I then found a job which paid less than my previous one. It's going well and I've had glowing reviews.

I'm now at a stage where I believe I'm underpaid by about $15,000. However, I don't feel I'm in a position to hop to another job after <1 year.

I'm concerned about the implications of asking for such a large increase, i.e. how they will view my happiness in the company (I have no issue with actually calling a meeting, explaining, asking etc)

Should I just stick it out until I've been at my current place a bit longer, then start looking for better offers?
A shared and synced 1password vault between family members is the best option I've seen so far. You can have your vault, a work vault, a family fault, etc which is kept in sync with separate permissions.
If at all.
That's a good point, actually. There was a fairly generous haircut, and if the Greek economy had been allowed to grow from that point on, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now.

As I see it, the problem was that the troika followed fairy-tale economics, forcing the obviously flawed doctrine of "expansionary austerity" onto Greece. In a large part, this was probably motivated by the desire to set a harsh example as a threat to other countries who might follow in Greece's footsteps.

Of course, "expansionary austerity" cannot work, and it especially cannot work inside a currency union, and so Greece's economy declined even further, making also the remaining debts unsustainable despite the haircut.
I agree.

I am currently in the early stages of starting a project and I want to use react+flux. However with the different variants of flux finding the one that is the best fit and is going to be maintained a year from now isn't an easy task.
I think I might end up using the facebook variant as I'm fairly certain that they will continue to maintain it.
Relatively speaking those parents of mine are to pop their clogs one day (well, Burkenstock sandals, one day being many years hence). I would not be happy about deleting everything on their PC's, I would want stuff kept.

However...

With my own 'digital life' I would prefer people to just fdisk/powerwash my PC-style devices and send the things to the charity shop. There really would be nothing to see on any of my machines, the cloud can just be forgotten, nothing really matters. I don't know if others would see it that way though. My point being that 'what you would do' concerning your oh-so-precious online life is different to what you might think when it comes to someone else's digital life.
Apple's policies around deceased users' hardware and accounts has recently (early 2015) changed, so it's possible this particular problem wouldn't happen again. Dead users do appear to happen infrequently enough that not every CSR seems to know what to do when you call in about one, though.

However, without court orders of some sort, you're probably completely out of luck. A death certificate used to be enough, but no longer.

I found myself in that particular edge case (along with two Canadian families) earlier this year, as a relative had passed away in a state that did not mandate probate, and the family had elected to not go through the courts, and so had no legal documentation establishing an executor or estate.

Apple ultimately said that they needed a court order to close the account or transfer the purchases to another one, otherwise the account and login would remain active forever, period.
Ask HN: Does Apple know about my upcoming wedding?
I just tried apple music. After initialization I get my recommendations and the first is a playlist called "THE WEDDING PARTY". Since I'm going to marry in some weeks this is kind of weird...

* Is this by accident?
* Does apple take over my spotify history? I was looking for a wedding playlist there..
* Do they match up different services and have found out about my wedding in my mail account or something else?

Is anybody out there with a similar experience?
Calling moving objects 'stealing', calling for 'dishonest citizens' etc gives moving a bad connotation which it hardly deserves at all, especially not in correct code. The main reason is that the object which is moved from is usually not going to be used anymore anyway so it doesn't matter what happens to it's content. That is just how it is meant to be used by the folks designing it: transferring content. Calling that stealing would be like calling the righteous transport of goods from one warehouse to another warehouse stealing: it is not, all involved parties know that after the transaction the first warehouse will be empty and the latter is full. The premise set in this article (first move, then use the object again and expect it to have content) goes against this. Which is actually fine, unless of course you expect that moving somehow leaves the original intact. Which it doesn't, that is what copying is supposed to be used for. At least in my opinion.
If I had to guess, I'd say that's spun a little bit more to make it look like Reddit management is the bad guy. Having been fired from multiple jobs in the past, unless Reddit management is complete shit, she wouldn't have been fired so abruptly and would have had some inkling that she was going to be terminated. If I had to guess (and this is without knowing any more intricate details than the fact she's fired and that Quora screen capture), she probably didn't communicate well that she didn't feel comfortable doing what she was asked, so it looked like insubordination because to her boss, it might have seemed that she wasn't doing her job rather than she didn't feel comfortable doing what she was being asked.

There are some shit managers, but usually managers attempt to communicate when there's issues and give good warning before terminating except in cases where the company is downsizing or you pissed off the CEO since that happens from higher up. But even then, you'll hear it from fellow employees that the company is removing the dept. or the CEO hates you. I am hard pressed to believe that she was abruptly fired, no matter how well she treated the Reddit community.

Yeah I think that there's a lot of people pissed at the situation, but I think it would be better if they had at least proof read or had multiple less invested people read over it to make sure it didn't sound so childish. If it wasn't such a direct attack I'd consider signing it.
The lack of interest. If you haven't used a language that has a REPL you don't know how powerful it is. Most of the Java devs I know haven't used REPL with any other language.
I can put it directly to the ribbon (i.e. its available as a command in the customization options), but to do all this I need to know it exists (i.e. discover it), and the ribbon-style path is not very discoverable. I still wonder how I found it in the first place. As they say it here, it's probably God kissed me on the head :)
Is there a collection of all the different HN clients out there? A HN example seems to have become as common as a hello world example among javascript frontend libs.
That's about what I expected, contrary to the 2-4x times speedup mentioned above. Still, I can imagine in isolated cases you really would get a better number than that 10%. So, for code where performance is super important and where the effort of the optimization and lack of transparency is outweighed by the performance boost this makes sense.
its going ok, not flying off the shelves but seems to be working well and ppl that have bought it seem to like it :)
agreed. Abstracting the tracers to provide similar information is a challenge.

I had a plan once to create a SaaS around dtrace like tools but it's just too fragmented and couldn't find a common ground. Not to mention that most users don't have the proper debugging symbols around, nor the required kernels. So I bailed. :)
