I don't think a _bigger_ legislature is going to help annything?

Hawaiian land ownership is a fragmented mess and this is not at all unusual. I hate fb as much as the next guy but this was not shady.

But not all symbols are numbers.

Yes, the generators literally have to push harder and slow down.

IIRC it's that the lights are a nightly "performance". Absurd, of course.

"As long as the music is playing, you’ve got to get up and dance."

Quite possibly an innocent address the fraudster is using as a dead drop.

Ohhh, that Anna Delvey! I remember her from this long form article, well worth anyone's time: https://www.thecut.com/2018/05/how-anna-delvey-tricked-new-y...

Because airlines starting charging for checked bags.

Joost ryhmes with toast though

Is slashdot full of people who think they can solve it in the comment thread?

Exactly. Everyone's taking this article at face value, but it's an empty design exercise, not linked to any airline, with no cost constraints, that will never see the light of day.

I mean, people have passed laws saying that pi=3 (and once even 4!) so I'm not even confident we can get that far.

Thank you!

It is bad, but also worse if they're female. Unless they were discussing male strip clubs?

"The left shoulder blades are missing."

800+ bones from 14 mammoths, but only right shoulder blades. I'm not quite sure what the chances of that being an accident are, unfortunately they didn't say how many right shoulders they found which would make the math easier.

The real question is how much money did Eddie Lampert manage to take out?

There are different types of bankruptcy. For businesses, chapter 11 bankruptcy allows time for court supervised restructuring of debt, on the theory that there is often value in an insolvent business, if the cash flow can be re-arranged.

Are you complaining that Google maps uses JavaScript?

Unless you're a very average person, I'd argue it does.

I'm pro-legalization but you bring up good points about the opioid epidemic. Legalization shouldn't mean zero regulation. Legal marijuana seems to be doing well in WA right now though.

I don't get it. It looks like a spiral. If your query is anywhere other than the center of the space, how is the locality maximized? For a large enough space, didn't this look just like striping rather vertically or horizontally?

Freefillableforms has an option to file an extension as well as a full return, for future reference.

It's a poor man's version but chrome Dev tools let you restart a stack frame, which is super useful.

Utility of wealth is non linear.

Cool. Why did you post it to hn though?

It's not really ray tracing, but some engines do something analogous to render shadows. Rendering the scene from the point of view of the main light source, and just recording the depth value at each pixel, yields a shadow map. Now for the main render, for each pixel rendered, re-project its coordinates into the light source's camera and compare the distance to the shadow map. If it's further, it's in shadow.

After we've corrected the historical discrimination? i.e. not yet.

People love to think that they're independent from the huge society they float on top of, but at the top of the pyramid there's just further to fall.

Mixing metaphors has never been my strong suit though...

He's nuts.
