5 euro comes to about 4.34 a head, in my house there is me, my partner and her son so assuming ~£13 a day - we probably don't even go that high most days.

As for diet - A typical day would like this.

Breakfast.

(them) Home made pancakes for breakfast with a drizzle of honey.
(me) Muesli.

Lunch, Salad Wrap/veggie heavy (other half is vegetarian) or KaposztáS TéSzta (cabbage/noodles).

Evening Meal - Spaghetti Carbonara or Tuna Steaks/veggies.

My other half loves cooking (she's hungarian) and it's completely the norm that for her/where she is from to just do everything from scratch.

Lots of fresh seasonal veggies, lots of soups, noodles, pasta etc - it's a good diet tbh and seems to suit my health issues.
Crash reporting services are generally not free; once you pass a pretty low level of usage you pay to keep using them. Ex: https://sentry.io/pricing/ https://rollbar.com/pricing/
This is for companies that have $500k to $5m in revenue and will loan them between $100-500k.

1) This is only a small percent of the 'startup' market by definition.

2) That is not a lot of money.

Anyone with little to no revenue needing hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars is not helped by this. It is certainly an interesting and useful service, but the headline is sensational at best.
Yes, Ive's accent, and his ability to speak in specifics about his designs adds invaluable authenticity to what he says and how he says it.

I'm not sure why the others don't seem to have as much of the latter, unless it's because they only managed the team that built the OS or the A4 or whatnot, instead of actually coding or designing it themselves.

Of course, Jobs doesn't actually do that either, but has always managed to talk as if he did.
48% implies an accuracy of plus or minus 1%. I don't care how fancy the spreadsheet that gave them that prediction was, that number appears to have been sourced from someone's posterior. There's no way they can predict it with that accuracy.

I'd believe that it's a target, or a goal, but that still doesn't sound right. Why wouldn't they aim for 50% or 51%? Why can they almost, but not quite, capture a majority? An attempt to manage expectations?
Just quietly, I've written a library that provides lazy sequences as MooTools Classes if anyone is that way inclined.

It does suffer from the whole "what's the point" problem.
Some people argue that owners of certain plants should be allowed to sell their property, but only on the condition that they give a portion of the proceeds to other individuals who demand it by threat of force.
MySQL already caches these. You've added a cache on top of a cache. Is a round trip to the database so slow?
As far as I've understood, Apple has said that they will handcraft the very first ads. I assume that they will introduce tools/APIs to do ads later, but if I memory serves me correctly, they haven't confirmed this.

I can see that they do it this way for two reasons: first, typical Apple priorization: no time to do everything with limited resources so they first do tools for themselves and then polish them for others. Second, by doing polished ads themselves, they create an example of ad-culture they want.

Interesting aspect of iAds is that they require a much more work than e.g. Google Adwords. This means that an ad agency ecosystem will evolve around these ads. My guess is that agencies that specialize on these ads will have to take a big role in selling these ads to advertisers. Which might be exactly what Apple wants.
Apple's competitive advantage has always been hardware-software integration, and user experience. In all of apple's products, I've always notice they try to widen the moat with their hardware and design capabilities (ie: reengineering of the MBP batteries, unibody chassis, multi-touch screens on phone/tablet, a4 chip, etc).

And if you look at Apple's iPhone Design page, it is devoted to mainly hardware upgrades and the marketing focuses on user-experience benefits of such upgrades. And these improvements just so happen to be in areas that aren't easily replicable by competitors like Google (because their expertise is in software).
so by expensive you mean a growth of n^2 or n^3, worse?
I've written front end for nearly all of my 13 years in this field. I've written some absolute dumpster fires in my time and have also written some very large and complex UI's successfully. I would like to think I have some insight to add here. I agree with a lot of the points brought up in this article. I'd like to add a few more points about why I think FE can be such a pain to get right:

1. Mixed concerns and a lack of application layering. In React code bases and others like them, its not uncommon for me to find business logic embedded directly inside the components themselves. This makes the component inherently coupled to the specific implementation its being used and can only be re-usable in other contexts by passing in modifier flags to the props etc. In my opinion, components should be mostly of the stateless flavor and delegate anything not directly related to their immediate UI concerns elsewhere. This increases the likelihood of re-usability of your components and makes testing business and component logic much much more straight forward.

2. This might just be my personal experience, but I've noticed a bit of a dismissive attitude around design patterns and traditional computer science principles among my front end brethren. YAGNI and all that. While I think its fair that the UI != to the back end, I think frequently the baby gets thrown out with the bath water. For instance, I frequently leverage dependency injection in my front end work as a way to make my code more flexible and testable. It's hard to sell the benefits of something like DI until your application grows in complexity to the point that you are dealing with things like nested mocks in your tests and/or need to make a non trivial change to some piece of functionality. I've been seeing the winds start to shift a bit on this which is encouraging.

3. Most of the time there is little to no overall _conceptual integrity_ to a given front end code base. Its uncommon for me to come into an existing code base and have anyone be able to tell me what the architecture is comprised of. Things like what logic lives where and why. I'm not saying people _don't_ do this, but in the more gnarly code bases I've encountered, this "accidental architecture" is more common.

4. Front end is still see as "easy" and the place you stick the less experienced engineers first. I sincerely hope this doesn't come off like I am gatekeeping or anything. I work with some absolutely brilliant people who are only a year or two into their career and much smarter than me. IMO its less about skill and more about having been burned enough times to know where unexpected complexity lie.

I love front end. Its challenging and interesting and maddening. My hope is that it will continue to mature and grow to the point that it gets the same respect as other disciplines within this field. These days I work full stack so its not all I do, but it will always be my favorite. :)
> Was he under arrest? The FBI is not obligated to bring you an attorney if they are merely interviewing you.

No, they are not obligated to do so. However, I believe he would have fully been within his rights to say "I am not prepared to talk to you, I do not feel comfortable continuing this interview without my attorney present."

“What rational lawyer would have signed on to represent the Concepcions in litigation for the possibility of fees stemming from a $30.22 claim?”

Isn't this the purpose of small claims court?

That question actually sums up my dislike of most class actions. It's not about righting a wrong, it's about a lawyer winning the jackpot. I've been a part of about a dozen class action settlements, and had I dug up sales receipts from ten years ago, could have earned myself awards sometimes approaching $5.00. Meanwhile, the law firm earned about $10 million. Not bad for a year's work.
Does the article cut-off or something? It says "...we just might be getting ahead of ourselves. Let’s back up."

But it never really revisits the initial claim that this could kill class actions...
Agreed, the "if this looks like a derivative it's because it is" punchline made my jaw drop. I <i>never</i> expected to see calculus show up when discussing ADT's and mutation.

The notion is so contrary to the way I'm used to thinking about programming and yet so appropriate given that mutation is change and a derivative describes the rate of change.

I want some more!
Very cool. I've never heard sleep described from that perspective.
Having had to use a bunch of different spatial packages, each defining their own `Position` type, I would love it if there were a standard type in the standard library or a very simple minimal "type only" package that they could all depend on.

I could just pass between instead of having to covert constantly between the packages individual representations.
Of course it's subjective, it just might be similar for other people in your exact context so it works for small groups, but it never works when you're talking to people outside of your immediate group.
I think both "it'll soon come to which IP addresses you can access." and recommending instead a browser which does pretty much that (just at url level) by default and says it's anti-censorship is hypocrisy, yes. Opting into that filtering - not as much.

A cut of the profits would be really nice actually. A cut of revenue is a totally different beast.

Is there any other space where taxes are so inequitable as with property in California?

Why don't they move to a more equitable tax scheme based on, say, what the district requires rather than what the home was bought for? I already know the answer, because nobody would vote for it.

It is the same in Berlin, where I live. People voted for the Mietendeckel but the only group of people that benefitted from it are the long-term renters who already have all the house they need. Among the screwed: small-time landlords, new renters and new families who need bigger apartments.
That's a really good point. Agreed that we should perfect one solution before extending to other ones. We might start with Nuxt as weweb mainly works with vue.js at the moment. We'll let the community know on our public roadmap: https://weweb.canny.io/

Viewing the size of the dataset this really does not mean anything. It's like training a statistical model on 10 data points and proudly saying that you have 95% accuracy at predicting something when actually you don't.
Using Cyrillic text this way might end up running into the same problem that the creator of this font describes: designers' clients might feel that they're supposed to be able to understand it, but can't. So they might still complain that the text of their site/product/etc. has been replaced with something unintelligible, much as they seem to do now with lorem ipsum mock-ups.

The use of æ in your Cyrillic text suggests Ossetian, like in the Ossetian word дæр dær 'and'. Ossetian is the only language that uses the character æ in its Cyrillic alphabet.

Theses tutorials had also been a very important step in my life. I found Denthor's words in a collection of pirated softwares. This was different, this was knowledge given for free and the results were astonishing. It was my first encounter with shared knowledge.

I may have never dedicated my life to open source without denthor/asphixia.

It was the proof of code creativity and that great things could be done by sharing. This was a new way of creating art. A new way of defining cultural exchanges around art, with an open mind.

Infinite thanks.

I have many friends who are in Sales. I have shown them many side projects and tried to convince them to sell it in their spare time. They are all enthusiastic at first and joke about which sports car they will buy when it takes off.

The truth is they never even attempt to sell it, not once.

I do not get mad at them though, I have just learned not to work with friends. You need boundaries in business. I suggest you do the same :).
"I wouldn't be surprised to see prices break the 1y low at this point."

Already happened. Yesterday.

Bitstamp now has a huge PR problem. Even if they "fix" the problem and resume withdrawals, no one will believe they're solvent without an outside audit. They had a sort-of audit once before (Bitcoins only, not fiat), but now customers will want a full audit.

Honeycomb seems to be more of a general events database, ala Druid.

This is a more specialised system that makes stronger tradeoffs to achieve really high efficiency for logs data. Stuff like indexing a reduced alphabet and not optimising for pivots and other views that are important for generic event databases.

Additionally Honeycomb is a hosted service.

I definitely intend for this to run in your own environment, on your k8s cluster, VMs, bare metal - whatever makes sense for you. If I do run it as a hosted service it will come secondary to the primary on-premise distribution.
You really should. I've found it extremely relaxing and enjoyable, and it's useful learning how to repair your own vehicle.

Should be easy to isolate objects that haven't touched anything yet. Determining when to start isolating already touching objects would be harder. Probably some kind of threshold is needed.
Except when we're seeing what could be a global reserve currency. It will continue to appreciate in value.

It won't go straight up at all times; there will be corrections.

But its price will be higher a year from now, also in 5 and 10 years from.

How much higher?

As fiat currencies collapse and central banks continue to print trillions of dollars, euros, etc., the value of bitcoin will continue to go up.
His interview was apparently before the DC officer succumbed to his injuries, otherwise he would have used a different word dance to try to explain why this was different than anarchists rioting at BLM protests.
I'd like to see something like this built into the Operating Systems. Maybe it's just me (misophonia) but having someone typing while a conversation is happening is so distracting as to make it next to impossible to follow the conversation.

The right, even obligation, of the sovereign is to dip a straw in the stream of commerce and extract revenue. Tax farming was the way to do this in olden days, a highly inefficient and grossly unjust means. Today the income tax is the predominant means, and it is sold as the socially just alternative. I don't want to argue the social justice aspect. I pointed out some contradictions in another comment.

I will argue for an alternative that is far more efficient and retains progressive elements.

In the U.S. the tax collection points number in the 100s of millions. This incurs cost on the sovereign, reducing the value of the collected revenue, and on the taxpayers, increasing the burden of the tax. It makes much more sense to switch to a system where the tax collection points number in the 10s of thousands, and the rules are transparent.

Public utilities are already extremely efficient tax collectors. Take a close look at your utility bill. The taxes may have confusing names, but they are there, and the utility collects them and remits them to the sovereign with very small staffs implementing very simple rules (compared to the IRS tax code).

Bear with me, I am now getting to the meat. Think of an energy transformation tax. Whenever energy is transformed (in most cases combusted), it is taxed. Somewhat like a value added tax, but only for energy. For instance, coal at the electrical generator: taxed; natural gas to heat a building: taxed; gasoline or diesel pumped into a vehicle:taxed; electricity at a meter: taxed.

Utilities are already set up to do this. Just bring on oil and coal companies and a few others. Those are your tax collectors.

Social justice / progressive tax? The utilities are also already set up to do this. So-called life-line or base-line rates on bare minimum consumption don't get taxed. Likewise a minimum level of gasoline and diesel consumption could be tax free to individuals.

Energy consumption underpins virtually all economic activity. There is no escaping taxes in the underground economy. Energy theft can be made a special case of crime with appropriately draconian punishment.

And do you really want to soak the rich? What do you think their energy footprint looks like compared to the common man's? Even when all they do is clip coupons.

Concerned about rising CO^2 levels? Tax hydrocarbon conversion higher than others. That which you tax you get less of. That which you subsidize you get more of.

The economic analysis of tax rates on different fuels is very feasible compared to analyzing the entire economy. I don't underestimate the capacity of elected politicians to complicate and demagogue anything, but an annual debate on energy conversion rates would be far more transparent than the budget process.

Of course it would be a big shock to jump to such a system in a single year, and this has only been a brief outline of such a plan. Better to implement over several years and dedicate the IRS to catching tax cheats from the old (income-based) system while it is mostly phased-out.
I say build it in HTML5 then ship it with PhoneGap. You'll have the best of both worlds.
So wait, the delete one of the eight genes that virus uses to replicate itself, inject that into the monkey, and then give the monkey the vaccine and watch the monkey's body kill the Ebola?

If the Ebola can't reproduce, how do we know that the vaccine had anything to do with the Ebola dying? It's not like it can live forever crippled and unable to reproduce.
I'm not even asking for ideas, though. Subway, weed, rent, cannabis, etc didn't need ideas.

It's a reflection of improved testing, but it is also an indicator of how bad things really are. The reason for the huge jump is that the virus has been spreading unchecked and undetected for much too long.

Just as an example, Prince Waleeds fortune is more or less self made. Furthermore, his company "Kingdom Holding" (IIRC) is to my knowledge not owned by the government (but it's a public company so that big investment fund - is it called the PIF? - could theoretically buy KH stock.)

Some of those real estate projects look private to me.
Ah! That's good, didn't realise. The upvote is a good idea, but yeah, there's a million different ways to submit the same online content.

The function is definitely desirable, but it seems better suited as a browser plugin or such. Although it's not literally, botting it and having it contribute almost makes it mandatory for all users, versus being an optional component.

It's the root of the use case here - the functionality is great, but not all users find it desirable.
