I'm not missing the point, I just think there are better ways to make it. The road is being used to protest. Driving on a road also blocks other cars from driving on it at the same time.

The objection is not really that the road is being blocked, but that some group of people care more about their protest than they do about other people's convenience, and that just cannot stand. People should be only allowed to protest if people who wouldn't protest aren't bothered by it.

I don't think this has anything to do with the difference between blocking or using, or 'intended use' -- whatever that philosophical quandary is supposed to mean. This is about efficiency and cost. At what cost should a protest be illegal? "At the inconvenience of a small public" is what I'm hearing.

Addendum: "Intended use" is not a data point. It is not something that an intelligent person can use to make decisions. "Actual use", yes. Things in really are actually used. They are never "intendedly used," and talking about it as such is a moratorium on creativity. Those protesters certainly intended to use the road as a platform for protesting. Are they not voting citizens of their country who also helped pay for those roads? Intent is the least important thing in the world.
Portchain | Devops & Backend Software Engineer | Copenhagen, Denmark | REMOTE (+/- 2hrs from EU) | Full time |

Requirements:

We're looking for a Devops Engineer (>=50% coding) with 5 years minimum of professional experience in deploying SaaS applications.

We're also hiring for a Backend Senior Software Engineer with at least 5 years of professional experience.

Our company:

Did you know that 90% of all goods globally are transported through a container, and the largest container vessels are 400 meters long and can transport 20,000 containers at a time? The container shipping industry is the back-bone and enabler of global trade, but it is struggling. At its core the industry is fundamentally inefficient: 50% of all container vessels globally are delayed coming into port, and key planning processes are done manually on a global scale. This leads to high operational costs, lost revenue, and unnecessarily high greenhouse gas emissions

Portchain is a 3 year old Danish container shipping startup devoted to help container carriers and terminals reduce operational complexity and optimize planning. We apply cutting-edge AI leading to both a better bottom line and less greenhouse gas emissions.

We are an international team of 15 people serving a global customer base and several of the largest companies in the industry. We have received $5M in funding to expand the team in order to serve our increasing customer traction.

Send an email to our Head of Engineering at jobs@portchain.com.

We're based in DK and looking for remote employees.
Awesome work! Definitely not common knowledge that parameters after # isn't sent over the wire. Can be used in fun ways.

I did the same thing but for text with https://anolog.org.

Sadly, since I used anonymous gists hosted on Github as my Data store, which they shut down last year, the service doesn't work anymore. :(
Ok so we've identified where the friction is - how can we improve on that for the lay person?
You interned US citizens on other continents?

Moreover Antarctica has an estimated ice volume of around 26.5 million cubic kilometers (most recent estimation - I believe). I estimate that cumulative melting since 1992 (2325 gt) has reduced that volume by 0.001%. Info & data at http://imbie.org/news/publications/ and http://imbie.org/data-downloads/
How is this possible? It requires a prescription, no?

SMH...
Small distinction, but I wouldn't ban targeted advertising, but profiling instead.

So a site could absolutely show you ads according to the content you view or create, and companies can go to a site and ask them to show an ad to certain users. But it would be banned to pass on any kind of usage data that is not explicitly destined as public (profile page data, posts), and it would be forbidden for third parties to create profiles on you.

I think tracking is also not bad per se, I still want to be able to identify recurring visiters to my site uniquely. It's the centralized advertising brokerage and profiling that should go away.
OK, so what's the exercise?

Nice! Really similar to something I’m working on, though I am targeting music lessons instead of jam sessions. I decided to add delay to schedule note rendering as you mentioned you do for another project of yours, since “near real time” has proven useful enough for quick communication during lessons.

I think it’s cool we had the same idea, very validating and p2p is such an interesting technology to me!
How do you deal with the liability of potential damage to the cooling tower that you do not own (or damage to the down-stream processes that rely on the cooling if it were to fail)?
Yeah, the whole article comes off as written for the author's ego first, and everyone else last. He presents these rudimentary equations while lamenting that he's just ahead of his time. I'm sorry, but 3 * A/B is not some mind-blowing model of geopolitical forces at play.

SimCity came out around this time and was inspired by the book Urban Dynamics, which contains complicated models based on systems of differential equations which feed into one-another. Considering that, the work referenced seems elementary, to the point of not even needing to be explained.

As it turns out, those complicated systems are the foundation of fun for an entire class of games. Most strategy games, from SimCity, Civilization, Factorio, or Off World Trading Company consist largely of balancing growth across various interlocking systems.
VCs and entrepreneurs have been trying to replicate the FB/Harvard/private rollout thing since FB did it. I can't think of any other cases where it worked though. Very much a cargo cult decision.
Kind of funny, as the author is an investment banker, and therefore probably a lot more like Nietsche's Last Man than any Ubermensch, however much those self-proclaimed alphas love to see themselves as such.
I've learned to be skeptical (to the point of total dismissal) of anything self-named by its inventor. If it's truly notable, others will name it.
None of this has anything to do with Linux and could better be phrased as “a Unixlike environment”.

Better yet, it could be phrased as “I like using the command shell and it's many utilities.”, for even non-Unixlike environments have such shells and utilities, from what I head.

Wouldn't that just be blending things from a datacenter?

Lest we let it slip our mind, the cloud is a still a group of real places, its just data/processing not near your location.
You're giving exercise way too much credit. Even the most rigorous regiment (which most couldn't even do) can maybe burn a 1,000 calories an hour. But considering how it easy it is to ingest 1,000 calories, it's easier to make changes at the dietary level than to correct excess calories by burning them off.
PStam has been my fav blogger since way back in his Georgia Tech days. Great insight and good journalism.

This article especially is of "PG essay" quality.
I think Rails or basic PHP are good places to start. There are plenty of screen-casts and tutorials out there for both. They may not go into depth, but they will help you learn the basics of web programming. You should move off of either once you are comfortable as there really is a huge ecosystem of web programming languages, frameworks, and practices and it will take some time to find the one you really like best. I am going to assume that you are not interested in the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript aspects of web programming at this time.

PHP is a good start because it is simple. It is fairly trivial to set up a quick LAMP (Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP) server. The Ubuntu Server distribution even has a system configuration option for it in the installer. It's also very simple and easy to create a minimal dynamic page such as one that stores the data from a form in a database and displays it, or does some minor calculations. The ease of set up and the ability to just plop some <?php ?> tags in HTML are PHPs real strengths for the beginner. PHP does not lend itself to large applications without careful thought and experience with organization.

Ruby on Rails is a decent framework for the beginner because it is so opinionated and will do a lot of the defaults for you. You will likely generate a few models and scaffolds and can fill in the gaps with your application logic. It is a lot more complex than just starting with PHP, particularly in terms of integrating with a real web server. The benefit is the opinionated programming and sensible defaults. Having the framework make some good guesses for you frees you from having to make every little decision before you understand it. As you get better at the framework you will realize why these defaults are so sensible and you will learn a style of web programming that many smart people have worked to refine. The major limitation will be that it can be hard to do things that the framework didn't expect, and writing your own plugins is leap in complexity from setting up simple apps.

In short, PHP is very easy to set up for simple pages, but quickly gets cumbersome without experience as the size of the application grows. Ruby on Rails is also easy to get started with, and will expose you to many good practices, but it provides a narrow path for development.

Start with one of those two, then try out whatever you think is cool once you know what all the buzzwords on their home page mean.
Anyone want to take bets on whether these rules will even survive the inevitable legal challenges?

My understanding is that since the FCC declined to classify internet as a "telecommunication service" their authority to regulate it is pretty shaky
I upvoted because I've been looking at jekyll myself and with your writing talents would look forward to your post covering the experience!

You make it sound like the Chinese source is not to be trusted, and you may be right. But this story shows that the Economist is just as trustworthy as any Chinese communist sources (i.e., not very trustworthy).

The Chinese source states:
"The money was used for Wu's personal consumption and in paying back the loans and operation costs of her company, said the court."

Now this is a quote from the court which is something that should have been available to the Economist. Nevertheless the Economist made it sound that she was only persecuted for accepting financing from unofficial sources, not that she was doing anything improper with the financing.

A death sentence for running a ponzi scheme sounds like a bit much (but then again I am against most death sentences) but it is a lot less unjust than a death sentence for only accepting financing from unofficial sources, which is what the Economist makes it sound like.
Maybe some old people still think things are private online - even if they've seen about PRISM (etc!) in the news they may forget.

They have an example of some possibly illegal activity being spoken about by an old guy recanting putting a car into the deans office of at Yale law school.

I spent all of 2014 building a SaaS for dog daycare/kennel owners. The MVP turned out beautiful. Went to a few trade shows towards the end of last year and people went crazy over the software.

0 outbound marketing yet, and already have 22 customers at $100/month. This year my goal is to scale up to 200 customers.

It's a really weird market niche where no one has built software for in 10 years. Pretty neat.

I think the popular conceptualization of economic inequality (effectively, "inequality is suffering") is misleading because it doesn't take marginal utility into account.

What I mean is, take the pizza-dividing example and suppose we have doubled the pizza. The inequality (expressed as the ratio of pizza owned to the available total) would stay the same but those with the smallest part of the divide would be noticeably less hungry than before.

In a world of plenty inequality would not mean suffering. More realistically, inequality would not mean (nearly as much) suffering in a world where a minimum slice of pizza was the birthright of a citizen.

Edit: This line of thinking is seriously flawed when applied to the real world. See drabiega's comment for why. metaphorm mentions some examples of where competitive costs may apply.
This is very different at the moment, not only you could have patch updates for the modified properties but you could also perform rollback in case something is rejected by the server and so on and on.
Can they tell us if Satoshi Nakamoto is actually only one person?
Any visualization is also language, and ultimately convention[1]. The privileging of the visual, or even the division of the senses, is a construct.

“I have had an experience of this kind, similar to that reported from many parts of the world by those who have had occasion to show photographs to persons who had never seen a photograph before. To those of us accustomed to the idiom of the realism of the photographic lens, the degree of conventionalization that inheres in even the clearest, most accurate photograph, is something of a shock. For, in truth, even the clearest photograph is a convention; a translation of a three-dimensional subject into two dimensions, with color transmuted into shades of black and white. In the instance to which I refer, a Bush Negro woman turned a photograph of her own son this way and that, in attempting to make sense out of the shadings of greys on the piece of paper she held. It was only when the details of the photograph were pointed out to her that she was able to perceive the subject.” Herskovits, Art and value, from Aspects of Primitive Art, New York, 1959

[1] Most of Herskovits' work focuses on this.
That's a pretty innovative idea, and likely would be quite useful to a lot of people.
Apple develops iMessage, and gives it away for free on iOS, as a way to make its own platforms more attractive.

Let's say this hypothetical "API neutrality" proposal were to go through -- note the actual letter from Blackberry's CEO never mentioned the phrase "API"[1] -- then Apple might simply stop developing iMessage. Unless your hypothetical law forces them to make the API available and keep it available indefinitely to all comers, effectively subsidizing their competitors out of their own pocket.

It goes both ways. By rolling your own framework, you inevitably end up reinventing the wheel and solving problems that have already been solved. For each feature you need, you either have to create your own solution, or manually integrate a bunch of smaller libraries. On the other hand, committing to an established framework means you have to work around issues that the framework was not designed to solve.

I wouldn't dismiss using an established framework as "short-sighted". It's a tradeoff: the more complex and unique your problems are, the more it makes sense to roll your own.
> It would be a great plot for a movie: Snowden et al, were given fake information to lead the world to believe it was being surveilled, eliminating a lot of bad behavior.

Potentially saving the government a lot of money in the process. Money, which in the movie of course went to private hands of evil politicians and businessmen instead of being saved. As the plot develops, the protagonist slowly uncovers the evidence of that widespread conspiracy and in the climax (after enough scenery porn and helicopter chases to justify the budget for 3D version) heroicly exposes corrupt actors for what they are to the entire world. Cue in happy ending and closing credits, as behind them the whole world tears itself apart in a yet another case of Hollywood not thinking through the morality and consequences of protagonist's actions.

I'd definitely go see that movie.
You should probably start a blog instead.
From my even more basic understanding, the "vascular" part comes from covid affection for epithelial cell receptors, epithelial cells being about everywhere in your body (that's why it can propagate from nose to brain). I assumed the liver had similar tissue lining it's entry points.
Well, the point is if the cities can’t feed themselves the people would go out into the countryside to search for food, and food wars would break out. So even if you have your own farms, property rights are basically over under a catastrophe of that scale
I suspect the parent is disappointed by the lack of ambition, or maybe thinks that the PleaseWait authors are just trying to get eyeballs on their site.

The animations are pretty bog-standard, let's be honest. I'd stretch to calling them aesthetically pleasing, but there's no way I'd describe them as beautiful.

At at least one entry point, for whatever reason that narrative appears to have some justification:

Criterium (the benchmarking library used here) uses multiple runs to obtain tighter bounds on amortized performance, as well as techniques to account for the effects of garbage collection and JIT compilation. See https://github.com/hugoduncan/criterium for a brief overview, as well as links to the pitfalls and statistical techniques involved in JVM benchmarking.
I think OP is implying that there may be more beans in the can to be spilled than there are signal users.

Probably signal occupies a far greater mind share than it's userbase actually warrants. If they say they have 10000 DAUs, more people will write it off as worthless rather than he interested in trying it.
I'd say that the second and third perspectives are really the same. You'd be left with the actual in-world company vs. the in-market stock. The duality stems from a stock having two values that can be at odds with each other: real-world value and market value. In some circles the two perspectives are called fundamental trading and technical trading. One extreme of technical analysis is looking only at price and volume charts, sometimes even vertically flipping the chart to more completely detach from any real-world notions you might have about the instrument.
You make an interesting point, which adds the communal aspect of making things for others' enjoyment. Do you have an example or resource on how the Japanese do this exactly?

I find this point interesting when I look at the Macbook I'm using to write this: it is plain, has no "designs" except for the functional aspects it embodies (a screen, a keyboard, a mouse, inputs). Its design does not seek to evoke a response from its user other than the experience that the operating system creates, which can be pleasant sometimes. In this sense, could we say that the design of a Macbook resonates with the craft of the Japanese?
Hydro has a big upfront cost because you submerge a lot of land which usually was covered with trees. It also adds a bunch of mercury to the water. However over the lifespan of the dam this is not a real concern especially compared to gas/oil. Furthermore if you need to account for energy stockage with batteries for wind/solar as they are conditional to the weather the environmental cost analysis becomes much closer as you have to account for all the manufacturing externalities. Hydro on the other hand can increase and reduce production by drawing from its reservoir which makes it at least as green as other renewables that we have right now.
This is borderline evil. It’s not about a “moment” it’s not about stoic “knowing”.

Do you have some examples for this happening?

I have seen extremely few stack overflows in Haskell since I convinced GHC to default to infinite stack size 7 years ago [1].

This is hardly new, people have been using ad blockers and various other scripts for years to block GA et el. In my experience it's something which PMs and other key decision makers are already well aware of. If there are still companies out there basing all of their decisions on GA metrics that's really their problem.
These get mixed up a lot but wrongly, I think. They can be related, but not necessarily. API Gateway pattern is at the application layer, and builds on top of the Service Mesh, which is at the transport layer. Think of API Gateway as HTTP and Service Mesh as TCP/IP. Just with more flexible hooks for authentication, observability, and reliability.
It delivers information. Arguably more effectively than most websites I visit for information.
That sounds like paying for exposure, and more downloads of an open-source project usually just means more work for the maintainer.

The problem with IDs and paying for registration is that this is specifically not a business, unless you're talking about a private registry that users also have to pay to consume.
Thank you for your response. Do you know if there is a plan to make that data public?
> "Forfeiture has its basis in British admiralty law"

British admiralty law is the bane of the American legal system:

"Next to revenue (taxes) itself, the late extensions of the jurisdiction of the admiralty are our greatest grievance. The American Courts of Admiralty seem to be forming by degrees into a system that is to overturn our Constitution and to deprive us of our best inheritance, the laws of the land. It would be thought in England a dangerous innovation if the trial, of any matter on land was given to the admiralty."
