Google translate of the first tweet (in German):

> Extreme nightcap in the #network frequency.
Quite unusual at this height and at this point in time. One of my measuring devices even shows 49.74Hz as a minimum. Has a major #power plant failed somewhere?

And second tweet:

>Here is another representation of the # mains frequency from just now. Extremely unusual, as a malfunction is to be suspected.
Unfortunately, none of my network analyzers are currently running to check the exact course.

> Given that all of those things have increased in cost at rates far beyond 2%, I don't really see how you blame that on the inflation of the USD as a whole.

My point is inflation isn't being measured in a way that actually matters to people worried about more than buying groceries and a new laptop.

If all those things were included in the measurement inflation would be way over 2%.

Currently it is not available but that's the next feature on the list! We are thinking about integrating Firebase and https://supabase.io/ to start with. We are also taking a look at the possibility to manage all the users & authentication from Airtable. What would you prefer to use as an authentication service?
This type of 'extinction leade' typifies why i switched teams. no one thinks that earth will become Venutian. flooding, soil loss, bio loss, whatever the worst part will be; extinction is not even on the table. fuck these models and the horses they ride in on.
TBH, I recently finished the code for a product that did almost exactly what you are describing, but for a very specific domain and use case, so yeah, there's a market.
(fwiw it was clear to me that you were commenting in good faith and received my upvotes)
People then keep the IDEs in English? Or the UI is set up to the right-to-left flow, only the text blocks with the code itself are left-to-right?
http://www.topcoder.com - apart from the algorithm competitions that it is known for, it also has "challenges" where you compete with other participants and work on building applications.
Discipline: I'm not sure if I don't want it because I don't have it, or if I really just don't want it.
Sometimes I get the feeling that the combination of school, drugs, the Internet, the standard american diet, and lack of exercise has left the vast majority of the population with some form of mild brain damage. Although the fact that most Americans are basically retarded, we live in a police state, and society is collapsing doesn't help much with the motivation either.
I also let a few emails unanswered for days sometimes. I don't know what the perfect solution to avoid that happening again. But i'm sure it starts with answering them.
> Now that the company has its HTML5 and iPad strategy in place, Adler says they are focusing on making Scribd more social and less reliant on search engines. Today, the majority of their traffic comes from Google, but Scribd is putting a greater emphasis on the social by closely integrating with Facebook.

So rather than relying on Google for most of your traffic, you'll rely on Facebook. Sounds like you're just changing one master for another.
I am not that impressed. It is still very inflexible. The one social network that no-one has really not heard about is NotePub, and that is also the one that gets it right, you can just define custom groups of people and can specify for every bit of information which persons and/or groups can see that info.
True. And although it took me like 3 days to respond. I would say that while you're right about scholarship and a thesis, etc., it's funny how many, I would consider, 'great' people end up not being scholars. How that dynamic works.

On the other hand, Heidegger is probably considered to be a scholar. And he plagiarized from Husserl like it was his business. So I guess in the long run, truth crushed to earth will rise again. It's best to be honest as much as possible. Always comes out in the end...
Largely forgotten is an earlier offering in reduced-detail maps, MapBlast's drafting-diagram-like 'LineDrive' directions. It's still available if you get to MSN maps via mapblast.com:

I understand your point and have sympathy for it, but I just can't go along with it. I know it's just the grumpy old man in me, but I still prefer to push back (gently, I hope) against the misuse of words and phrases.
Is it always a loophole? Can't it be legitimate some of the time?
I love how you're just realizing that NFTs are a pure money-laundering scheme. Just wash trade your bored ape and "sell" it to your alter ego and bam! Legitimate income for the cost of some ETH gas.
Yeah, I use a similar tool on Windows (ZScreen) and it just rocks when working together with other people over the web. The screenshot is online in 3 seconds and the url automatically in the clipboard for pasting.
I feel really sorry about it and I hope they'll make it.

Maybe they should consider writing more appreciated applications.

They could write more applications which involve people for the AI search.

I don't know what could reduce time to find AI, but
I would bet SETI could get many volunteers if they just would provide a social network application (e.g. facebook).

There must be more than just calculation distribution.
I think the transformation would be similar to the psychological change our species went through when it saw earth from space for the first time.

Putting it simply for the first time it would be us and them where us is our species rather than the us that happen to be on an arbitrary lump of earth, speak the same language or worship the same god.

It could be the next psychological development stage for our species as it grows up. I'd like to have my name associated with that.
That depends. Disambiguating these things makes them easier to read, easier to think you understand what's going on. However, in my experience the mental effort involved in working out what the symbols mean in their different contexts is essential to actually internalize and understand.

Yes, if you just want to read it without actually gaining any deep understanding or skill, use boldface, colors, words, mouse-over pop-ups. But if you want to learn something and be able to do it, you need to struggle with it. Only by doing the work do you gain the skill.

As in programming, simply reading programs gains you little, if anything. If you want to grow in skill, you need to work through the detail of programs you read, and do some programming yourself.
I've stayed in 'remote' places in Thailand from Surin to Sukothai, electricity is pretty good wherever you are.

It's definitely cheaper staying in the North East and you will have internet access.

There are also small expat communities in places like Surin city and Khon Kaen due to foreigners marrying locals from this region. So you won't be totally isolated.

You can definitely live well for under $800 in these areas.
Perhaps, but I find Bangkok incredibly cheap compared to say Beijing; especially the rents, but even cars are cheaper there. Wouldn't mind living there someday if I could get a good job.
I took all the trig as rote, but stumbled hard once I hit the matrix maths in TUT8.TXT
Go slowly getting back into things. I know you know that, but it's worth reiterating. Not because I'm worried you'll hurt yourself, if you've competed you know your body well enough to not to do that, but because I know how frustrating it can be coming back.

I tore one of my left biceps tendons training for an MMA fight about five years ago. When the doctors told me "six month recovery" I didn't understand that they meant six months to start working out like the average person again. That led me to have a lot of frustration during my recovery because I felt like it wasn't happening fast enough. It was closer to 18 months until I was able to perform at the level I did before.

Did you get a graft or just a repair?
Wow, I never knew web filtering software had moved beyond the obvious (pornographic, malware, etc) to "no useful content".

That be considered true for most of the Internet, and yet there's nothing wrong with that. The internet isn't just for work!
I use the $ sigil to differentiate between variables that are DOM elements and variables that are jQuery-wrapped DOM elements.
I admit to being surprised, but maybe I'm just too blind to RIM.

Be curious to see how things shift once the Asus Transformer and the Tab 10.1 hit. I know I'm planning to check them out and see if either feels like it will fit my needs.
Actual quote in the Amazon support forums from this company:

"This not just some social network website issue, but a serious threat to peoples lives!"
Among other serious flaws in the article, the author fails to make the distinction between simple irrational urges and the subtle and seductive irrationality specific to a bubble.

A number of people made more money by being in the housing market than was made by those who sat the whole thing out. The bubble was a loss in total but applying an overall process to an individual decision is not the easy-call that the author glibly claims it to be. A person can easily determine that wearing high-heals will be harder on their body than wearing flats. The calculations concerning a house in 2004 were much more complex and the calculations concerning whether to get a college education in 2011 are also more complex.
That's not even stupid, that is moronic.
Since you didn't put SPOILER ALERT, I guess it's okay to say that I was going for a similar approach, except that I was going to use sum of elements and the XOR of all elements. I guess the only advantage is that computing the XOR should be faster/smaller space than summing squares.
One thing I really hate is when a website like this uses javascript links unnecessarily. They prevent me from opening the linked pages in new tabs, so I have to switch back and forth needlessly. When there is no need for javascript links -- which take control away from the user and make his experience distasteful -- why not just use NORMAL hyperlinks???

This looks like a UI problem that could be fixed with a 301 redirect rather than some kind of philosophical issue.
1% is hardly a collapse. Why so doom & gloom?
I recently did this for a 24 hour competition and even something as simple as this helped me learn a lot. (I had no prior Java or Android experience)
Sharing homework. Great idea. Except that's called copying or cheating. At least it was in all of the academic institutions I went to.

I do like the idea of being able to place a banner ad for a paper writing service right next to the soon to be developed MS Word killer text editor in Facebook. I'm assuming Facebook will give me access to read the contents of the editor so I can suggest pre-written papers in my banner ad that match the paper the student is currently attempting to write.

Yes. Dunno about HT, never used a box with it.
Considering the unsustainable run-up recently, 100, 200, or even 300 points in a selloff shouldn't be surprising.
Speaking of which. Where is it now?
Also he's admitted to snitching on people to law enforcement for his own benefit. I wouldn't trust the man with anything private. Ever.
Size is multiple things:

1. simplicity

2. maintanability

3. API surface and learning curve

Riot also about minimalism, especially in syntax.

Less proprietary stuff (and keystrokes).
Totally agree, this is a feature, not a shortcoming. I use WhatsApp primarily because it is extremely fast when compared to SMS, iMessage is fast as well but not all of my contacts have iPhones.

If I want persistent group chat I'll use Hangouts or IRC/XMPP/Jabber etc. I have hundreds of options for that.
I've spec'ed out S3 alternatives for clients, and pretty much no matter what criteria they have for redundancy, managed hosting solutions or co-location comes out much cheaper than S3. E.g. typically half or less of the S3 costs for triply redundant servers, on RAID arrays, in separate data-centres with replication (e.g. using OpenStack Swift, or Gluster / Ceph + an API layer for example)

For larger setups you can do it at 1/3 or less of the cost if you're prepared to go the colo route (rather than managed servers) and leasing your own hardware.

If your average bandwidth usage per object is high you can trivially cut costs far beyond that, as the EC2/S3 bandwidth costs are atrocious.

The exception would be if you can't avoid huge amount of object accesses from within EC2 even if you move the storage out of S3.
While he went after the Miss America foundation for its scholarships, there are many cancer and related charities who are just as bad and could do with exposure.

However like how government works, people prefer to not to know and that is very dangerous.
In a hypothetical future where all city vehicles are electric, tire noise would be much more noticeable (whereas now it is drowning in engine noise).
If it's only about solidity DigitalOcean, AWS, and similar are ok for running single-host instances of your dockerized apps. If you want to get into clusters and scaling or are looking for a way to just take care of your containers and not of the infrastructure anymore, there's not many ready-made solutions, though. Amazon is working on ECS, and Google on GKE, but both are in a very early invite only Alpha stage. Other than those two, there's currently only us at Giant Swarm (http://giantswarm.io/) afaik. If you're interested you can register for an invite and if you contact me directly, I could get you the actual invitation a bit faster.
Also note that there's quite a lot of self-service solutions based on Mesos or Kubernetes, but then you're back at managing your infrastructure yourself again and you still have to book DigitalOcean or Amazon Servers.
Agreed. This is coming.
> No

I don't know who you think you're disagreeing with, but it clearly isn't me.
I think one of the fundamental flaws with American companies is that someone with "the right skills" means the person is a shoe-in at the time of hire. They are expected the walk onto the job with all the training, know-how, experience etc that the company needs at that very minute.

Since trends are constantly changing and always towards something new and never before seen, there will simply never be a time when there is a bounty-full supply of shoe-in candidates.

American companies need to look for people who are fundamentally smart, able and willing to learn, are problem solvers and have reasoning skills and whom they can shape into the exact resource they need...and then know they can reshape them again when needed. I really believe this will lead to a far more qualified workforce at every company and be a source of renewed loyalty between employers and employees.

Consumerism has driven America into treating labor as any other store bought product which can be easily, quickly and cheaply acquired to fill a momentary need and discarded when trends change.

This is not a labor market problem, it's a problem of approach and mentality in staffing and HR.

Look at the really successful companies out there and you'll see they hire fundamentally smart people, everything else can be learned.
Saw this comment before I slept and I think I woke up with a solution!

The problem is incentive based, cancelling others gains one social power. So the solution is simple, use the same weapon, and we are getting at step 1 already.

1) Being "woke" about how cruel cancelling other is, collectively.

2) Cancel the cancellors by naming and shaming every single participant, instead of the cancellee, for reason 1). Script it if necessary.

3) The balance of power is restored, just as Jesus intended, armchair judges get judged. (Doesn't it sound like the beginining of just any other cultural shift?)

4) ...

5) profit!
>There are two solutions to that problem. Governments could either make it easier to rent in the increasingly concentrated metro areas, or reverse the trend of increasingly concentrated metro areas.

That would require both negative interest rates and a land value tax because both are intended to neutralize liquidity preference. Negative interest rates prevent the build up of financial capital by overproducing "elites" which means people in rural areas will have those earning opportunities instead.
The weird design is the “construct programming model.” It’s pretty darn powerful but will always be a little weird because modeling “semi-free-floating objects in space” with a programming language that wants to do things one after the other will always have a bit of a mismatch. But classes work pretty well all things considered.

An example of a cdk that isn’t tied to a cloud would be https://cdk8s.io/docs/latest/getting-started
The macOS Docker Desktop app (I haven’t experienced other versions) is free and works fine. The paid upgrade is only required for certain features that I would imagine many teams don’t need.

My complaint with it is that I’d prefer if there was a 100% feature-parity CLI interface so it could run in the background, and that it should be open source.

To have a low-level developer tool that’s required to be in my menubar and administered through a closed-source GUI is IMHO an insane departure from web software development norms. I use lazydocker for now but it should be an official utility that replaces the GUI app.
From what I’ve seen, gymnastics tends to have some weird cultural… quirks… that aren’t as common in climbing.
Do they have an English version of it? I could really use something without half of the crap they try to push on me. Yeah, fuck you Cortana.
I'd like to hear what issues you had. I maintain a mac.install.guide for Ruby on Rails [0] and hearing about your problems might help me improve the guide for others. Email in my profile.

This is nothing new. Apple does (or rather, did) the same thing, by making versions of MacOS/iOS that funnel data directly to the CCP and utilize domestically owned and controlled servers. Unfortunately, catering to China seems to be the norm in this space.
There is really little downside.

Anecdotally i've heard people say marijuana will get you addicted to harder drugs, will turn you into a melted couch blob, etc.
Just like the author, I don't have time to learn the ins and outs of new "local optima" technologies all the time. I want a static site generator that "just works". So yes, give me a Wordpress-style GUI for creating a blog, then "compile" it to a static site, then deploy.

Seems like all the static site generators have lots of directory structure conventions and hoops to jump through for simple things like pagination and dates.
To address growth != tech progress. You're right. per capita growth comes from a few things. 1, operating at max utilization. Full employment. Going from 50% to 90% will grow the GDP. 2, saving. Building on what we already have to improve. Building bridges, long lasting homes, etc to that we can be more efficient in the future. 3, technological progress (also finding oil deposits, etc)

Tech progresss -> growth. That much is certain. It's certain that you cannot continue to have technological growth without economic growth. Name the 10 most important technological advancements of the 1900s and try to explain to me a scenario where those invention wouldn't cause growth. And its also certain that growing the economy by #1 and #2 above will allow more room for #3. So in a sense, you can, but it would be incredibly difficult to grow the economy without encouraging and making technological growth.
The first two pictures look like a prison
I saw this one from Chris Marra

Not on the same scale as rock stars and athletes but pretty much every college town is now packed to the gills with "luxury" apartments selling a lavish lifestyle. For many students, their college years will be the peak of quality of life when it comes to their living situation. Compare this to the residence halls of old with one shared bathroom per floor and multiple students sleeping in the same small room.

In the 1980s, the State of Alabama was sued by prisoners who claimed their prison cells constituted cruel and unusual punishment. One of the defenses the state used was that the student dorms at Auburn University were not only more bare than the prison cells, and lacking in basic amenities like air condition that the prisoners were demanding, the students had to pay to live there (the state won). Apartment complexes in Auburn and other college towns now are in wars with each other over the most attractive amenity packages for their residents. Because so many students take the largest loan amounts offered instead of just what is needed, a huge industry has popped up to convert that loan money into the type of experiences that appeal to those in their teens and early 20s. The lifestyle experience of the contemporary university student is nothing like those of the era pre-easy money loans (that is, when the government start guaranteeing and later issuing loans directly).
That only works as long as Putin and Xi also believe they are world-ending.
Another option will be using an alternative DNS root such as OpenNIC which is user owned and controlled. Besides offering resolv of ICANN root, it also adds its own TLDs. The now defunct ORSN was also another choice.
Same here, I went and looked it up on Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_coal

I mean... why the hell would you do such a thing?!
Why people use Linux in place of *nix ?

Even worst, most of the tools (cat, grep, awk) are Unix commands, redeveloped by the GNU project in most of the GNULinux distros.
Very cool idea! Is your code for this online anywhere?
That was my first thought skimming through this too. Either every *nix admin who is aware of a few text processing tools is a data scientist, or “data scientists” are just as full of it as I’ve expected.
but at this point in time, companies are bending over to satisfy regulators of a part of the market affecting all the rest.

In the past, you would get parts of a movie, titles, jokes or whatever censored in some part of the world, and not elsewhere.

Now to avoid upsetting the CCP companies decide to not use potentially offensive content all over the world.

It's terrifying.
I pay ~$3.5 for my dedicated server and already consider it expensive...
Most of the slides are cherrypicked articles in PubMed. Is there some new information?
Or you can write it all out on multiple lines

if cond1:
if cond2:
x = 12
else:
x = 11
else:
x = 13

That way you can debug it more easily (because you can trace execution rather than printing out the values that cond1 and cond2 depend on and figuring out in your head which way the ternary will go).

This also removes ambiguity in the case where you might want to assign to x some falsey thing like None or [] or zero:

>>> y = None
>>> x = False or ( y or False )
>>> x
False

The above code depends on the value of y for control flow. Clearer is to use syntax for control flow and not abuse falsey-ness or truthiness.

>>> print [bool(f) for f in [None, 0, 0.0, [], ()]]
[False, False, False, False, False]

If you really do want to test the falsey behavior, IMHO it's much, much clearer to branch on bool(the_maybe_falsey_thing) rather than just the_maybe_falsey_thing.
Last time i tried to use LibreOffice (~2 years ago) on OSX it was super slow/hanged when opening large CSV files while Excel on a virtual machine (same host) had 0 problems.
