11,501,974 | null | comment | e12e | 1,460,692,308 | I've actually found python3 to be surprisingly pleasant on windows (10), while go has been just ok. I think it is mostly a culture thing: python has a long history of cross-platform, and I think the odds are better that some utility written in/ported to python3 will use the various facilities python provides for "just working" cross platform. It also helps that python3 made virtualenvs part of the standard library.<p>With go, I think it's easier to accidentally end up with some kind of not-quite-portable thing, despite the fact that go is a new language.<p>Interesting (and good!) that you have such a pleasant experience with Rust too.<p>> The other day I wrote a tool to deduplicate my image library in Rust.<p>Hm, did you by any chance share that somewhere?

11,501,995 | null | comment | hackuser | 1,460,692,595 | > CopperheadOS is not going to outright prevent connections to Google. That doesn't mean the OS is going to have Google services.<p>I didn't meant to imply that; I'll clarify.<p>> The only known case where AOSP connects to Google is an HTTP GET to test if internet access is available. ... in the end, what would that really accomplish?<p>The GET tells Google and the user's ISP, and probably a few others, that someone at the IP address is using Android, plus whatever is in the GET headers, and that they just booted/woke their phone (which also locates the user at home or elsewhere, in some cases). It shouldn't be hard to identify people by IP. EDIT: In these days of one mass surveillance overreach after another, by government and business, it's doesn't seem rational to assume these companies aren't monitoring users and collecting all the data they can.<p>> The only known case where AOSP connects to Google ...<p>When I read this I think, 'Copperhead's priority isn't investigating whether there are other cases.' That is Copperhead's choice; I have no criticism of them.<p>Personally, I very much would like just one OS that prioritizes privacy (which is attacked much more than the exploits Copperhead focuses on) and gives me full end-user control over the information my device sends to others. EDIT: Again, I appreciate Copperhead's efforts and <i>free</i> OS; also, I realize they can't implement everything at once | null | 11,501,932 | null | [

11,501,990 | null | comment | entee | 1,460,692,524 | It's not just about patience, there are a lot of guidelines and hurdles to jump through to be eligible for certain contracts. Some of this is for good reason, there have been plenty of cases of contractors bilking the government out of millions with little or no accountability. But it makes the process too complicated for real competition to occur, so perversely although the government turns to the private sector for more competitive prices and cutting edge solutions, it ends up with inferior products.<p>Also, it's not as though the contractors themselves offer poor compensation. A lot of them actually offer at least market rate, and in some cases higher pay. It's not so easy to figure out how much something is going to cost over the lifetime of a contract. This, combined with the general opacity and bureaucratic hurdles of government contracting makes it so makes it so the government doesn't get the best deal over the lifetime of the contract despite picking what may look to be a good idea at the onset. Of course this is all ignoring political considerations and lobbying issues.<p>The US Government is the largest corporation in the world, I think the US Defense Department is alone the largest corporation in the world. And none of it is subject to the free market (in many ways for good reason). It's very difficult to do things efficiently at that scale, and its even harder to do it with external political influences of all sorts. | null | 11,501,521 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

11,502,013 | null | comment | possibility | 1,460,692,850 | > After hearing the announcement, Guillory contacted Vogt to inquire about his share of the proceeds from the sale of Cruise to GM. Vogt responded that he was due nothing, but first offered $100,000, then $1 million, and then $1.5 million and acknowledgment that Guillory was a co-founder — but only if Guillory would immediately surrender his ownership rights.<p>> The second Director to contact Guillory, Altman, also said he was authorized to negotiate on Cruise’s behalf and offered Guillory triple the amount of Vogt’s previous offer, but only if Guillory would agree to sign a formal settlement agreement that same day.<p>3 x $1.5 million = $4.5 million. Personally, I would have taken the money, but I think it must be incredibly hard to make such a decision under time pressure and without counsel. Still, you can retire on that money and basically be happy, and I would have chosen that over this shitstorm if I'd had the presence of mind. | null | 11,501,470 | null | [

And from Jeremy's complain, he is trying to build the case by saying he was more competent than Kyle. Yet why didn't he continue with the idea by himself if he was so competent?<p>The only proof he is using to say he was a co-founder is a YC application. This is I hope a non-binding document. I hope judge agrees that the only way to get equity in a company is if its granted in the form of shares. Jeremy was never granted any shares so he own's 0 shares.<p>He also acknowledges he did no provide any IP to the company. So if he didn't provide any IP and didn't receive any shares he should be entitled to 0.<p>I really hope Kyle wins and Jeremy is found guilty of tortorous interference and is obligated to pay for Kyle legal fees. | null | 11,501,470 | null | [

11,502,021 | null | comment | maxharris | 1,460,692,927 | This is a flawed test. The primary focus of any evaluation of a political system ought to be, "how would the best and brightest do under this system?"<p>Think of innovators, such as Ivan Sutherland, Seymour Cray, John Carmack, or Palmer Luckey. You can quibble about exactly how much, but the fact is that each of them would be hurt to one degree or another by a scheme like this, which would leave them with fewer resources and less freedom to do what they do best. Now think of the same effect, but applied to every field, not just computer graphics (think medicine, energy, food production, etc.)<p>Before I continue, I should add that I don't consider everyone that happens to be wealthy today to be a true creator. Clearly, there are people that have amassed wealth the way Trump has done (via political pull.) But let's not lump people that have actually earned their wealth (and there are clearly some) with those that haven't.<p>Without Fritz Haber's nitrogen fixation powering 20th century agriculture, for instance, there's no way Earth's population could have hit 7 billion people. As a class, the people I'm talking about make it possible for the rest of the world to live. They already carry us in ways we can never repay: we get to live because of the innovations they come up with, and all they get back in some cases is money and/or fame. I think it's a moral outrage to propose a system that would cut them down in any degree. | null | 11,501,536 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

I couldn't resist any longer after 3.5 years buried in the lab to show an alpha of our new automation tool to somebody (i love this board).<p>Please have a look at http://net-commander.com/screenshots and tell me what you think.<p>You can also download the alpha version for Ubuntu, Mac and Windows (it has still quit some bugs)<p>What's behind:<p>I am writing authoring software for experts since 2 decades and I wanted this time to make a tool which enables configuration tasks and automation of any networked device or service. In order to make this work like the new Excel for the new iOT and accessible to hobbiest or any person with minimal tech-skills, I followed the idea of providing a block based programming language which also can run any script in any language on the device. I hope being able to convert the block language via "pseudo" into popular languages like Javascript, C++, etc. Google's Blockly was a great inspiration for that.<p>Btw, another really big challenge (and very time consuming) is to write a web-based software which feels really snappy fast and works the way we know from older expert software (context menu, ribbons, main-menu, full keyboard support,...)<p>It is an Open-Source project and I hope somebody might like it here.<p>Your feedback is very welcome,

It is just too difficult to think about every possible issue that could happen when doing a typecast. Autovectorization doesn't tend to work well anyway. In most cases where it truly matters, people use inline assembly... for example, in CRC calculations code, tight inner loops in math libraries, etc. If you really want autovectorization, "restrict" is a better solution which doesn't require breaking the world to implement. | null | 11,499,062 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
11,502,024 | null | comment | akkartik | 1,460,692,951 | I don't think the paper contradicts the second quote. It just points out that things got a lot more complex since.<p><i>"this again shows that getting software right is not easy."</i><p>Not easy, yes, but in my experience getting software right isn't too difficult. What seems impossibly hard is <i>keeping</i> software right, maintaining correctness in the presence of new requirements, compatibility constraints and just sheer caring about different things than we used to[1]. At some point I suspect you'd get a better design by rewriting things from scratch. But the way we do development makes rewriting stressful and error-prone, leading to the repeated arguments about whether rewriting is good or bad[2]. The question isn't whether rewriting is good or bad. Software is the most malleable medium known to man, and we should do all we can to embrace that essential malleability that is its primary characteristic and boon. The question is how not to mess up rewriting, how to keep our clay from gradually getting more and more brittle under the weight of added constraints.<p>(I work on this problem: <a href="https://github.com/akkartik/mu/blob/7f5a95cdbe/Readme.md" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/akkartik/mu/blob/7f5a95cdbe/Readme.md</a>.

Despite knowledge of this risk, they invested and they facilitated follow-on financing. Now there's a big, dumb, expensive problem. YC dropped the ball, big-time.<p>The fact that Sam Altman is turning this into a public spectacle is further evidence that he knows YC fucked up badly, and probably doesn't have a legal case.
