Well, there's opportunity cost to consider.
This is also the case in Peru and Colombia.
Have you heard any information about any of the thousands of legislators, Capitol employees, media members or any of the other legitimate occupants of the Capitol building being hurt, killed, or even being in unwilling contact with the insurrectionists? If not, than the Capitol Police did their primary job effectively, which probably hurt their ability to do their other job (maintaining a secure perimeter around the building).
A corporation should be able to protect itself from being a platform to promote negative externalities.
Are you sure health insurance is deductible? There was a time it wasn't. Either way that's peanuts compared to a benefit that covers most of your premium. Fully fund a solo 401k is also nothing special compared to a proper matching 401k. This is just a freelancing gig, and not "working at gumroad".
New account for this?
ouch...the one bank with a really nice user facing app...hoping to hear more details
Well? Did you $$engage with the content$$?
I'd stay far away from any compound in the 25x-NBOMe series. The risk of life threatening episodes are real and understated in TFA with erratic responses to even low doses in experienced and first time users.

One summer when 25i first hit the scene SWIM was taking 1000 to 5000 microgram doses weekly until one week SWIM dosed 1000 micrograms (pre dipped blotter) and the short version of the story is SWIM woke up in the hospital and was being monitored to prevent kidney failure due to elevated proteins in SWIM's blood.

Similar events which were all preceded by psychotic breaks with reality happened to quite a few of SWIM's friend group if you want some anecdata to add there.

It's scary stuff whose unpredictability means I wouldn't recommend touching it with a 10 foot pole.
Impractical things have a tendency to become practical when enough money is involved:)
Nothing really changed in development, ZFSonLinux team was actually one of the more conservative in terms of data safety, what changed is that a bunch of things that were really long in the works coincided in reaching maturity.

If you want "feature chasing", FreeBSD ZFS TRIM is the ur example. I've read that code end to end... and I'll leave it at this.
I love ZFS but this is something that just works in btrfs; mirror just means all blocks live in two physical locations. You certainly can do that even with an odd number of drives. However ZFS is more rigid and doesn’t allow flowing blocks like this, nor dynamic defragmentation.
That’s always weird to me. Other companies do the same by hiding specs and documentation from people who aren’t paying big money. I always thought it was supposed to be better to spread your information as widely as possible so people can familiarize themselves with your product resulting in potential future sales.
> They only have to worry about moderation if they host anything.

I don't think that is the case. At least many users, possibly even most users, would not understand the difference between Apple hosting a social network themselves and Apple promoting a thin client that views decentralized content. If you have an Apple Decentralized Social Networks app, and a parent sees their child viewing objectionable content through that app, a bulk of their ire is going to be directed at Apple; they will likely not even know the name of the entity actually hosting the content.

The "we're not actually hosting it so we're not responsible" argument, I don't think it's ever really worked. I don't think it would work in this case. See: torrent websites.

I think the benefit to Apple also goes down. They give up control, and for what gain?
That's the question I want answered very much.

CJU-GMP would still be top but it would be interesting to see a non Covid affected world.
> I can understand hardware vendors not actively working with you on designs unless you're buying in volume.

I also understand. But in some ways I disagree: set a higher price instead. Let me, the customer, decide if the price is too high.
There is one question to ask here: "Why is so much of the volume in BTC driven by USDT trades?", i.e. what exactly is so great about Tether that we're supposed to believe everyone is actually buying it?

It is supposed to be a stablecoin. That's meant to be exceedingly boring. Tether is anything but boring, with all kinds of intrigue, lack of transparency about its reserves, law suits and so on.

There are a bunch of other stablecoins out there that just seem like better propositions, so why does crypto price action continue to be primarily driven by inflows from Tether?
Yes, the people who work there and who passed through there are the best of the best.
The troubles we are seeing with medical AI integration are not stemming from lack of personal abilities, though. The problem is clearly systemic, with medical data being currently mostly unusable (for both humans and machines, although humans often believe otherwise). So you can be as good as you want either in medicine or ML or both, material support is lacking for wide applicability of medical AI.
Not sure if this was sarcasm but that's almost exactly what they do and have been doing for years
I believe prisoners do have minimal rights, and to the extent feasible, should get a decent meal and perhaps reading material. Weights and playgrounds? Not so much. They should be busting rocks or chopping wood, or something else that is not fun.

Make prison too cozy and beneficial, and you give an incentive for crime.

Also, an alternative cost-cutter to triple bunking prisoners is to incarcerate fewer people, by decriminalizing victim-less acts (cough cough).
Yeah, that is what I was thinking, you are beyond trademark violation on that one. You are in willful deception territory. If is fraud black and white.
I definitely hope to see more "case studies" or rise to glory stories of startup much like airbnb. It really help to keep me grounded and focus on sticking with my gigs. And not give up.
I simply cannot believe this. I love the idea, and I love the execution, but then I realized that I'd look like an idiot wearing headphones on my watch.

As someone with a recently approved kickstarter, I'm enthusiastic about the attention that this device is bringing to the model.
I just learned the other day that we can see the posts we upvoted via our profile.
I live in Montreal and you are right that you would need to understand some French but only to read signalization, some store names and public advertisement. Signalization of course is important if you are driving but an app like this won't help you (you are holding the wheel I hope). Besides that, almost any store or institution has bilingual staff (and when they don't most French speakers will understand basic English). Don't let that hold you back... unless you hate snow and cold winters ;)

Here's Scott Wilson's update form China in which he walks through the process of getting the watches manufactured.

Integration with nike+ and perhaps a good set of bluetooth headphones make this the ideal running "watch".
The invite form Submit button on your front page won't work without JavaScript enabled.

I hope you fix that, but more importantly I hope you make sure trunk.ly works correctly without JS enabled. Delicious does, which is very nice.

Note that I'm not some anti-JS gremlin. I've been using the web since 1997 and have only disabled JS in my primary browser (Opera) last month. Wish I'd done it sooner. (I browse JS-heavy pages in Chromium or FF; previously they were reserved for pages that depended on Flash).
High point: Recommending encrypt then mac. Still an issue today.

This explains what M31-V1 is:

Nassim Taleb provides a good example in his book Fooled by Randomness. Imagine that a politician passed a $1 billion requiring all airline cockpits to be locked prior to 9/11. That politician would probably be criticized and then voted out of office.
Reviving a dead comment:
"Similar to other man made materials such as fiberglass, carbon nanotubes, commercial cellulose, and of course asbestos; what is good for industry is often not good for people's health and disposal and handling are often not big concerns for the people manufacturing and selling these materials. This may be a serious problem in the future when these materials end up in the environment, where there interactions with natural systems in unpredictable."

This is a valid concern, what is the system for censorship here?
Good points! I love tech chats like this. There are a few caveats:

A pool should be trying to make new allocations as contiguous as possible. That's accomplished by wrapping the allocations. For example, let's say we have a pool with slots A, B, C, D, E. We allocate A through D, then C is later freed. The pool shouldn't put the next allocation at C. It should be placed at E. That way, the objects are still roughly sorted by creation time: A is younger than B, which is younger than D, and so on.

(The next allocation should go in C after that, because there are no more slots. But by that time D and E might have been freed, so it's still in sorted order.)

That way, if you access any given element, it will cache the next element in memory. Due to the sorted nature of the allocations, that means even if you're iterating over them using some other container like a list or vector of pointers, accessing an element will still likely cache the next iterator's element. Not guaranteed, but likely.

About the vector enlargement: Usually the cost is nil, because as long as the vector stays under 1MB, you can simply preallocate large blocks of memory at startup for each type of vector. Therefore the cost of expansion is just a few arithmetic instructions for bookkeeping purposes, not anything expensive like a heap lock.

Good point about the intrusive list. I personally wouldn't like it because it makes the code more complicated, but as long as you're using a pool allocator, the memory characteristics of an intrusive list shouldn't be too different from the scheme I described above.
It's a bit juvenile to blame building codes without also admitting why we have them: they save lives. Look at the death tolls of earthquakes that happen in countries with and without enforced building codes.

On the other side of the coin, thanks to deregulation houses are commodities that people buy, sell and trade for profit, which raises their prices and causes volatility in the market.

Is that Atlantic article really comparing the building codes of Dallas and L.A. without admitting one of those cities has to plan for earthquakes and the other doesn't? And that one of those cities is already too big while the other is looking to grow? Where's L.A. going to get the water for these cheap new housing developments?

TL;DR building codes and growth restrictions are a lot more complicated than some rich people wringing their hands and using regulations to make themselves money.
Not only that. Many reservists were called up to active, and then sent back to reserve a day or so before their year or whatever of active would have qualified them for full active benefits. In other words, essentially a full year of their lives were stolen, but they didn't get the benefits that were supposed to compensate for that year.

In our name.

>Assuming your FPS was actually something like 358, not 358,596, that's still an extremely high FPS. When your FPS is so high, it becomes difficult to accurately measure the reasons for worst-case performance. A sudden spike within a single frame could be for any of a dozen reasons, such as CPU cache eviction, a GPU pipeline stall, or some other program on your computer taking CPU resources.

As an aside, programmers need to stop using FPS and other inverse units of measurement when performance tuning. It's much easier to reason about 2.79~ milliseconds than it is to reason about 358 FPS. For instance, assuming a single threaded application, let's say I know my game simulation alone can be updated at 125FPS, while my rendering code can be updated at 30FPS. How many FPS does my game run at when I run both together? You'd be hard pressed to figure that out without converting the two to 8 and 33⅓ milliseconds per tick, respectively, making the combination of the two obviously 41⅓ milliseconds, and thus about 24.2FPS.

Yes, your comment about performance measurements under lights loads not accurately reflecting performance under greater loads is true, but 2.79 milliseconds really aren't so far from the standard target of 16.66 milliseconds per frame than the 358 vs. 60FPS comparison would make one guess.
I thought we're just getting out of a 2020 "recession"? Asset prices may not continue growing at the rate they have been, but there seems to be more demand for things/services/everything/etc. than ever at the moment, and the boomers are retiring en masse.

Either way, my strategy is (and will continue to be) to have a modest payed-off house in a low cost-of-living area. Worst case, I could afford my bills doing e.g. one of the food delivery services (which is how I payed the bills for part of the 2008 recession).
Can you give example of some features that you have to write that don't exist in a plain PHP application nor an external library (i.e. features that have to be tightly integrated in the core of the product)?
From the way you are describing this, you seem distrustful of someone who walks up to you with a device, scans a barcode, shows you the price of said item which matches the tag in your hand, prints a receipt, accepts a tap as payment, let's you walk away with said item.

This flow summarizes almost every transaction I have had at Banana Republic, Gap, and the Apple Store, to name a few retailers. I have not had reason to distrust the clerk, disheveled or otherwise. Once I receive a notification from my credit card that an entity with the same name as the store has posted a transaction to my card, I walk out the door with my purchase. I have not once thought (or cared) about the store receiving the money once I am out the door.

What's the reason for the distrust?
Fortunately I have a rock that says "the next example will make the same point as the example I just read" so I saved a bunch of time.
As much as humanly possible without giving them a confluence and jira user. Otherwise it's a bait and switch by omission and I may be walking in that case.
You criticize the methodology by citing anecdotal evidence. That's worse.

Also it doesn't explain the correlation with the recession.
PMs can help only with one part (the "problem"), but, unless they are also good architects and designers, the end result and the process end up being pretty painful.

The devs still need to learn about the domain and they need to understand it enough to build a good solution. Having to learn a new domain on your own can be tough. Having external SMEs (subject matter experts) reducing the ramp up time and answering detailed questions is a big help.

It's pretty common for PMs not to be SMEs though...
The difference is that Rand made a purely moral argument for capitalism. Let me guess, you are religious?
Reestablish? This would provide enough economic input into the country over the next 5 decades that it could easily establish its own culture into one modelled on the UAE. Dubai is a prime example of a cash-cow city that is now predominantly self-sustaining its countries economy without complete dependency on the regions natural resources.

From the minerals described, it would actually give Afghanistan the potential to be a haven for technology manufacture, which can easily be stepped into full out tech-based economy.
I'm reminded of the Republican Party's recent chairman Michael Steele. One of the microscopically few black men, percentage-wise, in a party of almost entirely white people, and he suddenly becomes Chairman, and the timing happened to be just before or just after (I forget which) the election of Obama, a black man, to the Presidency. Coincidence? I think not.
To be honest, this surprises me a lot. I'm not a professional programmer, for some definition of same; but I do write a great deal of code and make my living from using and maintaining it.

And for me, saying

foo = bar<baz ? 42 : 0;

is really quite nice.
By comparison, the 3GS display, with the grid of pixels so visible, almost has a kind of retro, low-tech beauty.
Given that Iran can easily cripple the world economy by scuttling some ships and blocking the Straits of Hormuz, I don't think we'll see any such attack.
Interesting. I'd be curious to hear more about how/whether your take on her ideas was altered after reading the bio.
That's the "typical APR" and includes the annual fee in the calculation. If you read the fine print at the bottom of the page, it's using a credit limit of 1500 pounds for this calculation, which seems a bit low.
It's really too bad there are no counter examples.

Oh, wait.
what is the "percentage" rating? return predictions should be in return space.

someone should write a "how to write a trading algorithm" tutorial.

There was great inflation in financial assets, for the whole decade leading up to the current crisis. So there is a good chance the same thing will happen again, now that the central banks have taken the big guns out. I keep hearing that the FED (and other CBs) our out of bullets, but I think they have unlimited bullets. If you inject enough liquidity even a dead horse will bounce back; and for an example of that, you can check out the Venezuelan stock market (https://tradingeconomics.com/venezuela/stock-market).
That's the "optical" detection I was referring to. At long range I don't think any ground based device can reliably identify a muzzle flash without LoS.
Don't be too concerned. This sort of thing happens all the time. Just be polite and say that you'll be pursuing other opportunities.
You don't need to go into a detailed explanation of your decision if you don't want to.
The interviewer may be a little bit put out but TBH that would only be the case if you were the stand out best candidate in which case you'll probably be fine if you wanted to re-apply in a year or so.
As to the recruiter,just ask them to pass on your decision. They may badger you about it (they'll consider that they're losing money if you had a good chance of getting the role) but, again, you don't owe them an explanation.

As a general point, as a hiring manager, I don't tend to feel that someone's playing me unless we've actually agreed with them that they're taking a role (going as far as agreeing a start date, comp etc) and they then don't join. Fundamentally it comes down to whether or not we've stopped looking for other candidates.
If we haven't stopped looking, you're not really putting us out at all.
Lawyers aren't idiots. Judges aren't idiots. Lawmakers aren't idiots. If a law says you cannot disclose a government request, then trying to get around the injunction by playing games isn't going to do anything for you.

Best part? If you ignore it and never set it up, it still lets payments through (at least with Mastercard). I really, really wish they had an opt-out button...
Demos don't work on my droid. I keep getting the "Visit this site on your iPad" box.
Oh yeah I missed those, but I see them now. I guess that means you have too many calls to action. Maybe you should put the text input below the five popular games?
Try signing out and signing back in, loading in an incognito window, etc. (especially if you have an apps account).
None of this seems particularly weird to me (except maybe the fact that the hexadecimals use binary exponents, but I can imagine why this would be way more useful than a decimal exponent)

Allowing unicode identifier names is a feature I've seen many people ask for, and doesn't seem like that big a deal. It must be frustrating using languages that don't support this feature to foreign speakers. Of course some characters can be in an identifier but not start it, this is true of most languages. You can't start variables with numbers in C.

I see no issue with allowing numbers in different bases. And of course the decimal would also be in that base. It would be weird if left of the decimal were in hex and right of the decimal were decimal.
Apple does make mistakes -- the buttonless shuffle was universally panned and now the new one has buttons again. If the new nano is too small, the next nano will be bigger. But, getting back to the original point, these product changes are purely evolutionary.
I had a similar epiphany a year or so ago. After cursing make files and their syntax for so long, I had arrived at a moment in which the project I was working on truly called for make. The project assumed no other dependencies than a standard *nix OS and needed some simple compilation. So I sat down with the make documentation and in an hour had basically figured out what I needed. Almost no pain, super speedy, little trouble.

Admittedly the syntax is /unique/ to makefiles, which I think is the biggest downside. There is a huge benefit to not having to learn one more way of doing things. And I think that's the big appeal of tools like rake (as well as the ability to easily leverage, libraries, and other higher order programming concepts). But for the simple tasks of compilation, and minor project management. Give me Make.
I was going to say something similar. The only developers I know making $110+ per hour in the South-East are very deep into back office stuff like MS-CRM, SAP, etc. I did enough of it to know I don't really like it, but I had a fellow team member who loves it and is now making money hand over fist working on MS-CRM full time.

Different strokes.
Have to agree with this. Guy had done lots of other work, and just kept plugging away. Then this (an alpha, for those who might have missed that fact) just takes off and he starts bringing in millions.
