What I do hope is that things like Prime and HBO Go succeed. TV is already going down the shitter, and I don't know any millennial peer that actually still watches it (it's so backwards, why would we want to tell us what we can watch and at what time?).

What I do hope is that Netflix doesn't become a complete monopoly, else they'll stagnate.
The victims seem to agree the search was sloppy because it was obvious, but I would argue the main value of searching your locked safe and leaving behind a mess is exactly in sending this signal, letting you know you're being watched. Over the years, this paranoia will add up, and some people do break down because of it.
I do remember trying to use -prof, and being unable to make it work --- but it's too long ago to remember the details. I think it was something about being unable to find a prof version of one of the libraries I was linking to?

I did also try the ghci interactive debugger, and couldn't make that work either. Now, I like command line debuggers, but I found the ghci one utterly opaque. I did eventually get it to catch the exception... but then it wouldn't tell me where it happened.

In general, trying to track down the exception was an utterly miserable experience. I do understand that Haskell has special needs when it comes to order of evaluation, due to the way that thunks are unwound, which means that traditional stepping and stack frames are of little use; but this desperately needs to be better. And work out of the box.

Regarding avoiding exceptions... yeah, I'd love to, but it wasn't my code which was throwing the exception.
I'm talking about the ability of Uber to become a private monopoly. My comment about monopolies is meant to highlight the disconnect of people arguing they might form a monopoly when most places already have a monopoly.

If by "We", they're refferring to the 99% or non-business travellers, then the answer is no (not any time soon). I'm interested in the idea that eventually all transatlantic flights might be on these planes, but I'm curious as to whether or not the the fuel and maintenance costs will mean these flights are still cost prohibitive to most people (assuming the cost to build the planes eventually comes down to the point where there could be many in service).

I was at a security consultancy that sent a lot of people (~30) to Defcon and quite a few to BlackHat as well. I remember the pre-conference security briefing.

No company laptops on the trip at all, regardless of hard drive encryption, VPN (both of which were compulsory for off-site laptop use). Company phones had to have a long unlock password, enforced centrally. No 2G - all been hacked, no 4G, hacked, only 3G, but no client details over 3G. They recommended a burner SIM, and to not use the company provided SIM at all.

Well they can plunder properties, however, this is not the direction everything seems to be headed; for example, they've just relieved the inheritance tax, they are trying to help people buy property, it would be massively counterproductive to start making owning a property less interesting.

Also, it'd still be a better use of money than a pension that is 1) locked and 2) unusable until perhaps after you are dead... At least you can 1) sell it and buy something else and 2) live in a house and enjoy it.

Mind you, I don't completely understand the drive most people have here to 'buy our own home' - even in their early 20's!- in france, people don't even think about buying anything until they hit 35 or more! People are quite happy to rent a flat for a long while... or forever in many cases.

Also, there the geometry problem: in france, the big majority of 'comfortable' homes are in fact in small apartment blocks, all over the cities. In the UK, you need a 'detached home' otherwise, it's no go. Needless to say, it's not terribly space efficient.
Most new properties outside london are smaller and smaller 'semi detached' format that are often smaller in surface than a nice flat!

So i think there's also quite a bit of 'cultural' bias to the property crisis.
I have travelled extensively, and my experiences in places where rubbish piled up - in tourist areas as well, like coral reefs - made it very hard to understand for me. I pick up rubbish in my own neighbourhood if I see it.

So, the Moon orbiting plane is close to the ecliptic, and the satellite is in the ecliptic (L1 is in the ecliptic). I do not get this:

> About twice a year the camera will capture the moon and Earth together as the orbit of DSCOVR crosses the orbital plane of the moon.

(nitpick: the DSCOVR has no "orbit" around the Earth, since it is in the L1 point)

Since the Moon's orbit and the ecliptic are so close, I would expect this crossing to happen more often (on every turn of the Moon around the Earth)

I thought the dark edge at the top-left of the moon was a shadow, but there was no solar eclipse in the time-frame reported for these pictures.

So, even though a perfect alignment of DSCOVR (at L1), the moon, and Earth would mean a shadow and thus eclipse, the moon must be a little off that alignment on this pass, throwing its shadow into dark space, even though it looks very nearly aligned in the photos.

I'm shocked that they don't mention sitting in front of the computer or TV before bedtime. Computer monitors and TVs have a bluish light. Blue light down-regulates melatonin, which is the hormone that makes you sleepy.

I used to have a serious acne problem. Cutting down on meat and dairy really helped, but I was still getting a few small pimples now and then after that. It was only when I stopped using my computer or TV late in the evening that I got 100% clear skin.
>The satellite is 1 million miles away from Earth at the L1 Lagrange point. What is it about optics that allows us to compare a photo of the stars taken at such a distance with one taken from the surface of the earth?

The fact that the earth in the picture is lit by the sun and has similar luminocity levels to looking at the sky from the surface during the day.

The background of the picture (the stars) on the other hand, have the same meagre light they always have.
Still the same. Waste of time...

>Does anyone know why they decided to go with just a 4 megapixel camera?

I'd say because they have several other constraints the necessitate that, not because a 50MP wouldn't do. E.g. resistant to cosmic radiation, able to cope with the light extremes it needs to, etc.

Here they have some other factors I didn't consider:

The result is that most homeless people on the street are some combination of mentally ill and addicted to something. The addiction is often self-medication for the illness.

You need to be a bit careful with this. You use the word "most", and you imply there's a causal reaction: people have mental illness and addiction problems, which cause homelessness.

http://www.nationalhomeless.org/factsheets/Mental_Illness.pd...

> According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 20 to 25% of the homeless population in the United States suffers from some form of severe mental illness. In comparison, only 6% of Americans are severely mentally ill (National Institute of Mental Health, 2009). In a 2008 survey performed by the U.S. Conference of Mayors, 25 cities were asked for the three largest causes of homelessness in their communities. Mental illness was the third largest cause of homelessness for single adults (mentioned by 48% of cities). For homeless families, mental illness was mentioned by 12% of cities as one of the top 3 causes of homelessness.

My worry is that people think better drug and alcohol treatment, and metter mental health treatment, would cure almost all homelessness. It would get rid of a lot of it, but not most of it.

It also doesn't recognise that being homeless probably causes some mental health and addiction problems.
I love Netflix but hate using their website. It's a constant experience in annoyance. It's slow, buggy and gets in the way of discovering new content. (Chrome on Linux on an older Atom processor -- yes I know that this is a rubbish spec but other non-webapp media consuming methods work just fine.)

What about a cross platform libnetflix and let us build our own native apps? (Like spotify do.) Or even allow integration into e.g. Kodi media centre.
Did you even BOTHER to read the FIRST LINE?

Fabricating a conclusion from something I did not say is remarcable but nothing less than utter nonsense. You went from me talking about an inmature engineer wanting a Mac for the wron reasons to claiming I said companies deploy such technology to have employees look good at Starbucks.

And that's exactly the problem: People are in love with Apple and the ability to reason goes out the window.

Again, read the first fucking line.

99% of businesses in the world are NOT IBM. They simply cannot spend 10x on hardware that buys them exactly nothing for the money or close to it.

The myopia that exists around Apple is truly infuriating at times. It is completely irrational by almost any metric. The evidence is in the tens of millions of businesses world wide who do not use Apple computers and never will. Because it makes no sense whatsoever from a purely objective point of view.
There's a grain of truth in what you say.

Color perception is a subject that's fascinated me for a long time. Humans are visually rather unique, as unlike most other mammals we are able to see beyond yellow into the orange and red spectral range.

That's probably attributable to trichromacy, having three classes of retinal cones. The article points this out and correctly notes the complexity of visual circuitry without giving much detail. That's OK, the layers involved in translating retinal impulses, the exquisitely intricate slicing and dicing visual information into encodings for shape, motion, texture, surface, depth as well as color are truly mind-boggling.

That suggests to me that trying to ascertain linguistic influences on the visual system may be a form of "premature optimization". Of course it will be no surprise to find out there are cultural effects on verbal color description and communication conventions. OTOH it's also plausible to suppose that humans of various cultures can distinguish colors equally well when color naming is not demanded.

Artists who care about color don't care about the names colors are called by. What is important is being able to distinguish subtly different colors in order to be able to produce results. On the web #ff8844 doesn't have to have a name, it does the same thing anyway.

At the end of the day it's important to determine if language really changes what we see, or only the modes of communication, styles, fashions and all the layers piled on top of actual sensory experience.

Perhaps in everyday activity who cares if a shade is "orange" vs. "tangerine". When fine color discrimination really counts, in art, engineering, medicine, color names are secondary if necessary at all.

BTW if anyone wants to informally test their own color discrimination ability, I'd recommend looking here: http://www.xrite.com/online-color-test-challenge

Honestly my situation is similar to yours. Using PHP for web applications mostly more than 8 years. I had many frustration with PHP over the years, but it has a quite strong community & mature documentation, millions of code samples. a dozen of giant MVC frameworks that some of them are famous as PHP itself. what my problem in getting started with Nodejs was lack of understanding JS's basics not even Nodejs itself (yea i was really blind & fool but i was thinking that i knew JS) i was reading source codes of famous libraries in Nodejs. Quickly I have seen my problem. i didn't knew JS even though i was using it more than 8 years. i was unable to understand even the basic libraries or frameworks. That moment was an illumination for me. then i started to learn JS in real. i've read the famous JS books during 6 months. with the decision of never try to code before fully understand. that was my leap for being a better developer (it worked even for my PHP knowledge) by the way i still read the books :)

After that 2 years i have developed more than 5 projects with nodejs. i still don't have a stable MVC structure for expressjs (not like SF2 or ZF2 etc.) keep changing it every project, improving. but it's a nice journey to learn something new when you are 36 years old. now i have quite stable vision/exprience right before starting a project while planning. Already started to use task runners grunt/gulp, actually i have developed a deployment app with nodejs & connected it with my own git server. i work way professional & efficient than before. My humble advice is read the source codes of Express.js Sails.js maybe even Backbone.js then see if there is any black spot in your understanding. (if not that's nice of you :) )
Node.js is upto something very nice for all web developers.
The math doesn't sound realistic to me. He use a percentage for the churn rate but not a percentage for the number of new users, he is comparing an arithmetic progression with a geometric progression. As is well known, a geometric progression always beats an arithmetic progression.
This indeed describes a lot of systems of our times. I think it's simply people not understanding complexity and 'nature', and only caring about growth and profit. I don't know if it's an inevitable fact, a mandatory lack of insight in their own actions that lead them to fail when 'success' stops coming. It's not that worrying when it's TV, but the food industry seems to be very very skilled at that sort of idiocy too.
The US got the better rocket scientists/engineers, the USSR got the better nuclear engineers. In particular, they got better centrifuge experts. The better centrifuges are the reason why the USSR could build their bombs so quickly and so much cheaper than the first US bombs.

This looks neat and the video on the post highlights stuff that we've always wanted to do with mixpanel, but couldn't really manage that easily. Even things like copying a query and just changing one parameter is a drag with mixpanel.

All that being said, the free plan doesn't include all those neat features like cohort analysis, and the paid plan is way beyond our reach at ~$1k. We're currently paying around $300 to mixpanel, and that's already maxing out our small budget. We would love to have a paid plan with less events, but more functionality at a more affordable price point.

It's also worth noting that the camera is quite old. The satellite was built in the late 90s, and was flown more-or-less unchanged when it eventually took to the sky.

So not only do you need to account for the space hardening that has gone into the technology (it was designed to keep working through the middle of a solar storm), you also have to take into account the state of the art over 15 years ago.
