I see it the other way. From the comfort of my home computer I can speculate on the value of U.S. corporations, the future value of U.S. corporations, the value of shiny yellow metal, the exchange rate between the dollar and the turkish lira, the exchange rate between the dollar and the euro 12 months from now, the price of cattle, the price of corn, the interest rate on 30 year treasury bonds 6 months from now. The list goes on and on. I can do all of that legally. We have all the necessary legal and regulatory framework to support it. So to say, "yes you can make risky speculative bets on the price of gold but not on the price of bitcoin" doesn't really make sense to me as an American.

The irony of framing this as some kind of intentional class war from the right(which 1%s are generally implied to be), while the left equally aggressively pushes for the policies that hand the "1%" the money is pretty intense.
Wait - so why are other countries like Germany in the EU fine despite also not being able to arbitrarily issue their own national fiat currency?
If you invest $1000 per year at 7%, you'll have $45,000 after 20 years. After 40 years (age 25 to 65), $215,000.

https://www.calculator.net/investment-calculator.html

For $5,000 per year, you'll have $1,073,000 after 40 years.

7% is the average stock market return, adjusted for inflation.

If you invest $0.00, you'll have $0.00 after 40 years.
Your point's well taken. I'd say that there is a bigger issue in the case of flatMapping side-effectful monads because they're typically dealing with things like writing/reading from databases and the error cases should be thoughtfully considered (do I have to roll something back or perform compensating actions, or clean up anything?)
I don't have a percent, but it is believed to be very low.

It cuts both ways though. Tesla does have the potential to improve in house processes quicker than going through suppliers, especially since they have access to extremely cheap capital.
By default you don't get "notifications", it just puts any new videos from those channels into your "Subscriptions" page.

I subscribe to 200+ channels, not because I want to see every video from all of them but because it generations a "Subscriptions" page full of content I know has already proven to be to my taste, because I find all the "front page" content on YouTube to be absolute crap.

YouTube has an incredible amount of legitimately interesting content but it's on smaller channels buried by clickbait/fake-drama/lowest-common-denominator stuff, so subscribing to the good channels you find is the only way to find the needles in the haystack.

In this case, the entity analogous to the USPS controls the paper, pen and stuffing of envelopes.
The very idea that you can view "they can be persuaded" as anything less than behavior manipulation is interesting. If you're trying to impact behavior at a subconscious level, you're bypassing a person's conscious security controls and accessing their legacy brain API. An API that -- long ago -- saved the brain owner's life but today keeps modern humans trying to stock up on high calorie food because "winter is coming." Or as Clay Johnson put it, "brains want what WAS good for us, not what IS good for us." Your algorithms are counting on this and exploiting it.
I know exactly how easy it is to feel OK about doing this given just how much manipulation design I used to develop, advocate, even teach. I'm now horrified I ever did it, and even more horrified that I cognitive dissonanced my way into thinking it was not just OK but perhaps even noble -- after all, those kids games I made for the [ginormous candy company] were educational.
I suggest you read "Addiction by Design", about precisely what happens when personally-tailored adaptive algorithms are combined with behavior science. If reading Kahneman doesn't give you a reason to rethink this, Addiction by Design might.
It doesn't collapse in any way that you care about, though.

What is interesting is the possibility of tail recursing, but over a regular stack that is continuously abandoned. So the foundation and lower floors disappear, yet the recurse centre grows ever higher into the sky.

«could never replace a national currency»

There are plenty of scenarios for Bitcoin to succeed and be useful without necessarily replacing national currencies.

«transaction times in the tens of minutes»

Wires take hours/days. Credit card transactions take 1-2 days before the seller's bank account is actually credited. Obviously speed isn't an issue for adoption given that people tolerate systems much slower than Bitcoin.

«maximal global transaction rate of 5-10 per second»

Bitcoin Lightning Network supports thousands/millions of transactions per seconds.

«Blockchain couldn't replace»

IMHO it shouldn't replace, but complement.
Prediction code for rollback is somewhat akin to branch prediction code in that the dumbest solution works surprisingly well but there's incremental efficiency gains to be had.

I wonder if any fighting games have thought to train a neural network per player to try and predict the player's actions N frames ahead. The neural nets could be used for smoother netcode but if the accuracy got high enough, they could, eg: allow for play after one player disconnects, or used to estimate ELO by having the neural nets play each other before the match or be AIs you could play against in offline mode.
Somehow, google has made it so that the best way to watch YouTube on an Apple TV is to open YouTube.com in a browser on another apple device and airplay to the Apple TV.
I upgraded my TV to a Sony X950 because I cannot find a decent dumb TV, got really annoyed with the super buggy Google Android TV thing.

The cold start time is absurdly high, the basic feature of a TV - built in OTA TV player has a bug that the channel display stays on forever, the Airplay frequently play video with no sound. The only fix is find the 3 level deep restart menu item, because power on / off doesn’t matter.
I would be more than happy to pay more for a normal Sony TV, with a “not using Google Android TV” label.
I wish it were more clear what exact info we were giving to the app (not just generic "contacts" or "photos") and when the app is receiving that info.

I know more about coding than 95% of my friends and I still don't fully understand the depth of info that I transmit to an app when I agree to give it permissions on my iOS device.

E.g., if I give Whatsapp access to my photos on my iPhone, does that mean all of the photos that are stored on my iPhone, including screenshots and hidden photos, are uploaded to Whatsapp servers? Does it upload when I take a new photo or when I open the Whatsapp app?

So if, in this case, Whatsapp is indeed pulling all of a user's photos, including hidden photos, to their servers, I imagine many people would not want that to happen. So 1) I'd want to know ahead of time exactly what will be pulled and 2) ideally, I could have a way to use the app without giving it the keys to everything.
Maybe give it a few days before you're frustrated there isn't enough killing going on. I bet the US can surprise you yet.

I bet you sanctions and whatnot are coming next week, at the very least.
Pompeii is such a treasure. Part of me wants them to dig it all up and part of me thinks it should just stay covered - maybe for future generations in a couple more centuries.
Try the following APK: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/whatsapp-inc/whatsapp/whatsapp-.... (yes, it's not the newest release but they apparently did a rollback after this version removing the web menu item)
> She also seems not to understand the difference between "No Stopping" and "No Parking", which is pretty clear to me.

There are three classifications of restrictions that are commonly applied to limit roadside stops:

No stopping - Most restrictive; can't do anything
No standing - Brief stops are permitted
No parking - Standing in an occupied vehicle is permitted

Everyone would know this if licensing requirements in the US weren't a joke.

I'd reckon it was the inbuilt virality it has coupled with all the integrations. No collaboration app comes remotely close in terms of being useful without needing to throw away legacy organisational workflow.
> Use your server logs.

That's hardly useful though. Logs are littered with bot traffic, and several users or sessions can be hiding behind a single IP address. Also, you've absolutely no means to track segments of traffic.

Self-hosted javascript is an only vaguely better option. You then need to worry about the infrastructure needed to write the data in a reasonably scalable way as you get larger, and processing the data in a useful manner isn't necessarily something an average Joe can do.
I find sound creation to be quite interesting, compared to sound reproduction. In a way buying an amplifier is easy. You plug in your guitar and try to find sounds that you like, that fit your vision of what your music sounds or are just plain cool.
Just bought a tube amp. Second hand, they are not expensive. There are so many amateur musicians who don't just have the time to use their gear so much that it would start wearing a lot. New features are rare. So 20 year old equipment is often perfectly usable.
This sounds about right to me. If they're successful they'll be worth a lot more, but they're only a couple exploding rockets away from being worth nothing at all.
Irony alert: StackOverflows has amazing SEO.

And I consider Google+SO the best programming tool ever created.

wrt Closed Questions, simple heuristic - if the page has lots of visits, lots of upvotes and is high in google for common searches do not close the topic. Clearly there exists a market for this question for many people, even if it boggles super-users' sensibilities.
Netflix sounds like a pretty clued on place in terms of hiring and culture. Which considering their size is no small feat. I don't like their clever wording around what they call a "high performance culture" which basically means that if you don't meet the level they expect, you get fired. Which is fine, but they should be a little more honest about the fact without burying it behind creative HR speak.

I would love to know more about their hiring process though. You mentioned that you didn't have to answer questions unrelated to your job (something I personally experienced during a job interview on a bad scale recently). Do they make you solve puzzles and other pointless indicators that some companies use to determine if a developer is any good or not? More specifically maybe a front-end focused role, not a back-end one.

Would love to know more about the process (as much as you can without getting into trouble).
This machine was more about preventing defective or slightly out-of-spec tubes from being smuggled out of the plant and sold on the black market as new units. These things were somewhat expensive in their day.

If you had the means to build counterfeit Sylvania tubes back in those times, you might as well have gone into legitimate business for yourself.
Why would you prevent someone from writing whatever code they want, as long as it is FOSS? That's hypocritical, considering that doing whatever you want with the code is one of GNU's main tenets ("free as in freedom")
This is a nice article. Two observations:

1. The article mentions that the average freight train speed is ~28 miles per hour. From what I can find, the average freight train speed in the US is ~26 miles per hour. I’m not sure that these numbers are actually apples-vs-apples though.

2. From what I can see on that map, it looks like Moscow is the central hub for freight rail regardless of which China-Europe route you take. Smart move by Russia. Chicago is kind of the North American equivalent and it has really benefited Chicago quite a lot.
Op is saying implementing that is a minor inconvenience for Uber. If they wanted you to be able to tell the driver, it would take them a couple of weeks.
Indirect is there to protect code that uses an API, not the API.

Since it's API's all the way down, this is needed to protect any application on top of the BIOS/OS/HAL.

Otherwise, very little would be protected by copyright.

However, it's entirely possible that "indirect" is a word with a definition that is different to our understanding in legal documents.
I completely agree - this is absolutely horrendous to consume and I'd like to see someone defend it since you were downvoted.

1. Complete loss of relative positioning. Additionally no idea where the beginning or end is.

2. Nauseating due to having to eye-track moving boxes and scroll behaviour.

3. Takes way longer to read as a result.
Perhaps I should have noted in my initial post that the only spacial data stored at the moment is the star system's (x, y, z) position in the game's coordinate system.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, there should be nothing to cull from a point (ignoring projections)... right?
You can have a no dogs rule. You just can't have a "No service dogs" rule. Service dogs are essential to the welfare of their humans, denying them would be like having a "no glasses" or "no canes" or "no pacemakers" rule disallowing folks who need assistance.

Yes, there are limits, especially if the area is dangerous or the dog is disruptive, but generally that dog should be considered to be a tool the human is using.
The bullies example seems spot on. I do not know why, even if it were true, it always and predictably needs to be portrayed in TV/movies. It normalizes bad behavior and will move people towards a world were this is deemed normal. It is not, and never should be.
He's referring to the fact that Ballmer dismissed the iPhone when it first came out as an expensive toy that only consumers would care about. As everyone has seen now, "enterprise" phones like Blackberry are dead in the water and workplaces are adapting to supporting iOS and Android devices instead.
Yes, this is definitely a problem with rental equipment. Most rented tools I've used are in bad shape, though still usable on a one-off basis.

Rental companies tend to charge for excessive damage to the tools (if they bother to inspect the tools upon return). So that can help to align the incentives.

But it doesn't work as well with individuals lending to each other. Think of all the bad eBay experiences people have reported. The reputation system was supposed to solve that, but apparently it hasn't.

I take good care of my tools, and I wouldn't lend them to a stranger. Especially knowing that I'm not guaranteed payment in the event of loss or damage.
That's the purpose of a corporation. That's why we have something called a judicial person. To separate this kind of thing.
If it hasn't already burst... I can't imagine what it would take.
The main use case right now is that your company won't spring for a docker desktop license (and you work in a windows/mac shop).

It works well enough for single docker images, but I've never gotten it to work well with a complicated docker-compose set-up (I haven't tried in a couple months though, so go check the docs before you write it off).
There's some of that European approach creeping into US markets thanks to Aldi Nord and Aldi Sud - we now have both Aldi and Trader Joe's which primarily have their own versions of products and carry only that brand (or occasionally a second 'mainstream' brand as special items). Costco is similar as well in typically having only a single brand of any given type of product.
Null means "that thing which I've decided to attach special significance to". There's in general no reason to prefer a null hypothesis over any other hypothesis.
Interesting video. I learned from the comments that in the US, the maximum assisted speed for something to still be considered an "electric bicycle" is 28mph, ≃ 45kmh [0]. Bikes that can go this fast are actually not allowed on bike paths.

45kmh is a good amount less than the max speed the video quotes for his ebike at 60kmh, though of course that could be because he was riding downhill.

In some ways, combat sports might be worse. Athletes are gambling with their bodies in return for potential monetary reward, and most don't even make it into the big leagues.

With casinos, at least they only lose money and are unlikely to have to live with lifelong injuries.
>USB bus receiving the packet

its not really receiving packets, its receiving data _you specifically requested in YOUR packet_. in USB only host is capable of generating traffic on the bus, your device cant generate any packets, only answer to them.
I hope I didn't give the impression that banks are the victims here. The situation most fixed income departnents are in is entirely their own fault because they haven't invested in their people or technology. Heck, most don't even talk to their equities departments about how they adapted 15 years ago.
This is 100% correct. The 'a' stands for 'automatic', just like the variables allocated on the stack are 'automatic' variables.

When the stack frame is unwound when the function returns the allocation is undone.

The UX302LA is great, especially after swapping the spinning disk for an SSD and maxing out the RAM.

I had lots of issues with the graphics when I first bought it (April 2014), though, and had to run with a kernel patch to the 'quirks' code in the display-panel detection. Fortunately a dedicated developer put all this together with a kernel build script ([1]) so it wasn't too bad (... for an experienced Linux guy) to get Arch running.

In general though I think several-year-old ThinkPads are more painless because stuff like that has made it back to mainline already.

Most places do, AIUI.

I've actually been at a power plant where one block has never been switched on (except for maintenance). The block is there because it can be switched on, if necessary.

The texans wanted low prices and structured their pricing 100% for that: Power generators are paid 100% for being cheapest. Most other places use a combination of low pricing and availability, and the regulator will award contracts for availability to various generators that have different failure modes.

For a lot of us it happened in adulthood, where we were definitely aware of our parents' beliefs and values before, as they changed, and after their radicalization.
Currently, the broader computing community is in consensus that we are in “the multicore era.” Consensus is often dangerous, however. Given the low performance returns assuming conservative (and to some degree ITRS) scaling, adding more cores will not provide suffi cient benefit to justify continued process scaling. If multicore scaling ceases to be the primary driver of performance gains at 16nm (in 2014) the “multicore era” will have lasted a mere nine years, a short-lived attempt to defeat the inexorable consequences of Dennard scaling’s failure.

Clearly, architectures that move well past the Pareto-optimal frontier of energy/performance of today’s designs will be necessary. Given the time-frame of this problem and its scale, radical or even incremental ideas simply cannot be developed along typical academic research and industry product cycles. On the other hand, left to the multicore path, we may hit a “transistor utility economics” wall in as few as three to five years, at which point Moore’s Law may end, creating massive disruptions in our industry. Hitting a wall from one of these two directions appears inevitable.
Tropo uses Phonetag.com and Simulscribe to provide the actual transcription, and we've built a custom engine to handle the delivery and management of the transcriptions on the back-end.
>Can anyone give me a good argument why domains shouldn't go into an administration period when it is discovered that they are serving up copyright material?

because serving up copyrighted material very well could be in the interest of humanity, and some people prefer outcomes that favor humans over corporations.
I think they really just fill those shoes because they have to until someone more specifically experienced comes along.

In my case at least I'm "full stack" but as soon as it's feasible it'll be someone's job to do what I've done a whole lot better.

Until then though I'm full stack because I'm intimate with my entire platform cause I wrote it of course, not because I have some deep knowledge of everything I'm doing... most of what I'm learning is how not to do things.
Just a note, this is not correct. It is the result of having spaces in the string from the line breaks.

I find it interesting that Patxi's rated better than Zachary's, since Patxi's is a spinoff. I've eaten at both and I think they're pretty much the same, tho I've never had them side by side. If you're in the bay area, both are worth the trip.

Not from U.S. Would the discussions, consultations between the judges and the independent subject matter experts be published? Surely there must have been such extensive discussions right? Or is the judgement based upon the subject matter experts presented as witness from both sides themselves?

I'm intrigued by how judgements are passed in such intricate technical matters.
