I think the big difference is not that home schoolers do not have friends, it is that home schooling does not force you to deal with diverse groups of kids. In public school you have no choice of whether or not you have to interact with people that you don't want to/don't care to.

This is not really a bad thing, but learning to deal with people you would rather not can be a good skill to learn. This is not to say that you will not figure this out elsewhere.
I think a more likely scenario might be that control of the project was seized, and the final release and statements were not from the developers, or they were issued by the developers under duress. It seems more like an agency wanted to shut it down because it worked too well.
You accuse debacle of being presumptuous, but you are presuming debacle doesn't already teach his/her son how to deal with people, learn he lives in a society, that sometimes life is boring, and that sometimes you are not the only one.

By the way, school is not the only answer for any of the questions you asked.

Miners will likely omit transactions that offer a fee that is lower than their cost of mining (at least eventually). This sacrifices some small amount of revenue on the current block, but should lead to higher revenue over the long term (assuming their cost levels make bitcoin an attractive transaction system).

In many places you can pay extra to get your electricity from less carbon intensive generation sources without actually changing anything in your home, it may be worth looking into if you feel strongly about the issue.

In the UK Co-operative energy and Ecotricity are two that I'm aware of.

The other thing you can do is invest in a "community solar garden" project, which basically means you pay for the panels, and get the benefit of their generation, but they don't sit on your roof.

Anecdotally, I have actually seen them advertise this, and my company decided to get two. I see people using it all the time, but I have yet to see anyone do in depth work requiring interaction with the machine, mostly just reading and researching.
I suspect that by recommending encryption software that is highly unreliable like Bitlocker (by virtue of being closed source and developed by Microsoft who we know cannot be trusted) they sent up a huge red flag to their user base.

Nobody would expect the TrueCrypt devs to recommend something like this, so it is immediately suspect and all anyone really needs to asusme something isn't right (like a gag order).
I have a feeling that the public schools in the 2nd century Roman Empire were significantly different from modern public schools, especially in the United States.
In case you didn't know yet, a BNF grammar always is a graph. So the diagram is just a different way of depicting the same thing.

For example, the (E)BNF¹ for the graph in the article is:

expr = term { ("+" | "-") term }

where the accolades indicate zero-or-more repetition.

This actually is important because if your grammar can be written down as a graph it means it is a context-free grammar².

Just about everything I've learned about bash has been from the #bash IRC channel on Freenode. You'll see the same repeated warnings of not learning from the public web, due to the fact that misinformation spreads like a wild fire, and some articles out there are just flat out wrong (sort of like w3schools in the #css circle).

There is just one thing I will never understand. The tired argument of "...but it isn't portable". Features that are new, and make programming bash easier (such as "[" vs "[["), are looked down upon in some circles because it isn't portable. If I'm programming for bash, then upon deployment, I'll be using bash. To use another shell, and hope it just works is a bit insane.

I'd also like to second using the Fish shell. Far better than bash/zsh for everyday use, and I just can't go back to other shells.

Bit off more than they could chew? Didn't have an extensive background in game building? Perhaps they just never built a 3D game before?

It's kind of like when some of the first 3D games came out, modelers would model a brick then build a wall out of them, instead of just modeling a brick wall other ways, like putting a brick texture on a regular wall. They probably just couldn't come up with a good way to 'cheat' 3D collision detection that worked for them. Approximating is a huge part of game algorithms even with the power of today's hardware.

I wanted to believe that a team of 6 to 10 people could make a game that looked and felt AAA. Boy was I wrong!

When we made Crash Bandicoot (with a team of 7), it was already virtually impossible to make a AAA game with 6-10 people, and that was 20 years ago.

I tell inexperienced entrepreneurs to take their honest best estimate and multiply by 10. Or, as Mark Cerny (our producer on Crash) used to tell us, "add one and increase the unit: 1 week = 2 months; 2 months = 3 years; 3 years = you're doomed".

It has rest based interface to do everything + UI to make it easier when you need to do one off things. It allows you to control execution across multiple nodes. Good thing is you can setup your processes by tag of a node in Dev and export the project as is on Production and it will still work.

It's a runbook automation tool but can be used like in place of chronos, oozie, spark job server etc.

The thing is to exploit/trick someone you need to be usually smarter than them, so this only plays into my reasoning. And you are also "racist" because you're treating them as slow-minded and needing protection from "the evil white man".

A few things: Startup founders need to be convinced that you'll be willing to do the work that at big companies you might have had a support team for. So you need to prove that nothing is beneath you. The best way to get their attention is to demonstrate the type of work you'd do for them right in your cover letter/email. (ex) In your case it could be sending a recording of how you might lead a technical demonstration for their product even if it's just a mock demo.

Also, I'm not sure how early stage you're willing to go (looks like you want at least 10-20 employees), but with your experience you can fairly easily start to engage startup founders that are just starting to think about building out a sales team and process, and help guide them. Whether it's tips on how to create pitch documents, how to set meetings, or the best way to think about how they will scale their sales team. I've seen a number of startups where someone has started off as an advisor (whether formal or informal) and later on was hired as a FT employee. This approach might take some time, but at the very least you'll build relationships with interesting companies and get to see how they're run before joining them.
I kind of like Zencastr over Zencaster. But I am not really the target audience. Just thought I should mention it though.
Yes this is a good read. After reading that last year I bought a griswold #8 from ebay for $50. Stripped it with lye oven cleaner over a few days, and then seasoned it like above. I stopped 'washing' the pan with soap as I found chiseling any stuck on stuff with a metal spatula, followed by using "The Ringer" under hot water to be quickest and easiest. After that, I dry with a paper towel and spray with Pam (read somewhere that the oil in pam (canola?) was a good 'drying' oil). It is also good to bake stuff in the pan, pizza, pies, cornbread,ect. The extra heat will also help re-season. I have been super impressed by the pan after a year.

It depends on how much your data gets accessed. Your data storage costs (~$0.03/GB) double, but your transfer out costs (~$0.05-$0.09/GB) stay the same. The replication cost is often pretty negligible compared to regular traffic.
I expect they were more similar to US schools of 100 years ago than the US schools of today are (modulo being a lot more aristocratic in their student population).
I just quite simply don't understand where people find the time to homeschool their children. I leave for work around 8am, come back after 6pm - by the time you cook dinner and eat it's usually 8pm. When and how would I do this? It would be financially unfeasible for either me or my partner to stay at home at the moment, we both need jobs.
This is an important distinction. I was homeschooled until college yet still had plenty of friends (I'm not unsocialized). But I still experience culture-shock with my peers - and they with me - because my childhood and teenage years were alot different than theirs. It's not a dealbreaker for homeschooling - but parents should beware and plan appropriately. I agree that a homeschool/traditional schooling hybrid would be ideal.

What it calculates per hour as a job has nothing to do with anything; you said 10k wasn't enough to overcome fees, that's absurd, 10k is plenty to invested and get a healthy return from and far better than 30% annually, hell I made 35% last month and I didn't work an hour for it. Beat the market is a meaningless scare tactic used by those that don't understand being small has enormous advantages over being large and "the market" returns are what large institutions struggle to beat, small traders destroy the market constantly because being small is easier. Returns decrease as capital increases so it doesn't scale up.

Seems like an inevitable side effect of making fundraising an impulse buy that circumvents due diligence. Not that it's inevitable to happen every time, or that crowdfunding can't succeed, just that the odds of a really basic sort of failure that could have been surfaced early on are a lot higher.
You are confusing two different concepts. Splitting the coin into two faces amounts to collapse of the wave function into physical observables. The two halves have been determined.

The idea with Bell Inequalities is that if Alice and Bob are given entangled particles and some predetermined information (local hidden variables) then when Alice and Bob make specific measurements:
1. For local hidden variables, Alice should see results predicted by the whatever she already knows and won't see Bob's actions having any effect on her results.
2. Without local hidden variables, Alice will find (after the fact) that her results are skewed by (correlated to) the measurements Bob made.

Exhaustive experimentation has been consistent with #2.
I worked once for a (non-Indie) game studio and HQ asked us to change our engine from 2D to 3D to accommodate some 3D art(in the middle of production). It implied a lot of work but the studio had the means to put some very experience people focused just on abstracting that pipeline.

This is harder that our case because it involves gameplay, so there were some naiveté from their part but I can see how from an abstract perspective it can be understimated.

Was worth reading if only to find out about ShellCheck.

My current project has a lot of bash. The program itself is just `foo | bar | baz | ...`, but the associated test script has grown quite long.

I've just added an extra test which calls shellcheck on each script, and it's spotted a bunch of redundant code for me :)
I was (am) new to CI, I bought the ringer because it seemed like steel wool would scratch the season off (vs 'the ringer'), but then again, I never tried steel wool, so don't know.
I have seen it explained that Bell's theorem does not, strictly speaking, forbid hidden variables. What is says is that if such hidden variables exist, they are irreducibly quantum, at which point the hidden variables become uninteresting. Recall the historical point of "hidden variables" was to recover classicalness out of the quantum. If the hidden variables are also quantum, they're just pointless elaborations that explain nothing and enable nothing, so why bother with them?

(I've also been quibbled with in replies but I'm not sure if those quibbles are correct.)

Put in more interesting terms, a 2-norm probability system can contain states that are fundamentally inexpressible in a 1-norm probability system. See http://www.scottaaronson.com/democritus/lec9.html for a good discussion on what that means. Viewed from that perspective, Bell's Inequality is all but a trivial result; yes, there really is a way in which "quantum" fundamentally differs from "classical" in a mathematically rigorous manner, despite our culture's casual use of the word "quantum".
Lawyers who work on pure contingency settle cases for pennies on the dollar because they can't afford the risk of going to trial. Especially in toxic tort cases, where the experts are expensive and the burden of proof is much higher than what science can easily satisfy (more likely than not, the injury would not have happened but for the defendant's conduct).

Legal claims can be and are sold to entities that aggregate them and bring the lawsuits themselves. That's probably better than the class action system but still leaves victims getting a fraction of their damages and perpetrators paying for only a fraction of the costs.

Another libertarian-ish solution to toxic torts, which I've never seen espoused, is to simply recognize that pollution is a form of violence and make it illegal. Then, people who want to pollute could transact with the potentially affected parties to pay them to shift onto them to bear the risk of harm from pollution.
Not sure if it's a great solution to allow a single use the ability to "own" a project name though. You can imagine it resulting in some of the problems associated with domain naming: name squatting and legal fights over trademarks.

Arguably the name of a project is a trademark, and no one has permission to use it unless you grant them that permission. Just because you license the copyright to your code under an OSS or Free Software license, does not automatically entail granting a license to the trademark on the name.

IMO, this is one thing that makes Github a bit of a legal tar-pit... it's trivially easy to fork a repo, but nothing makes (or even encourages) you to change the name, or make it clear that your repo isn't the "official" Project Foobar. So far it seems that most people just take a "don't ask, don't tell, don't care" sort of approach to that, but I have a hunch it's going to get somebody burned eventually.
Microsoft hilariously trolls Google’s ‘Alphabet’ announcement
You could do some SOE. And add an "Attribution" clause to your license.

People will however look at recent updates. And take into account the differences between the repositories, before deciding witch one to use.

This is how it should work by default IMHO. "Forking" is flawed: What if it was the other way around: Lets say You cloned a project and are actively maintaining it, why should people be directed to the original outdated repository!?
Where is the table comparing the accuracy of DL tools to others?

Seems like mainly he is just saying "DL takes a shitload of resources" and no numbers.

My understanding is that the other tools have limited relevance now with DL, since most systems are moving to cloud-based services that do have resources for DL, and DL offers much better accuracy. That is not readily concluded from this report.
There isn't chemical refinement in the same way as there is with oil. But there are mine tailings, ash, a surprising amount of radioactive thorium in the ash(1), sulphur (usually neutralised by trucking in limestone and out gypsum (2)), and of course vast quantities of carbon dioxide. "Clean" coal does not and cannot really address the CO2 even if it has been cleaned up in the other ways.

There are various estimates of the breakeven time, but even the most conservative ones put it under ten years.

If you don't have any grades and didn't follow a curriculum how can an admissions team adequately assess whether you're a suitable candidate with the necessary credentials?

Man, asking all the hard questions. It reminds me of the "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" question. Maybe you could live stream it though.

Also note that there are juggling machines that are stable without any active control [1]. Designing a self stabilizing slinky escalator could be really hard though (if not impossible).

Sure, and if you expect your software to run on such a platform with any degree of confidence then you're right to consider it. Even better, tell us about a conforming implementation that you've used in product recently that has UINT_MAX == INT_MAX.

Also I'm not trying to mislead people into thinking that its a good way to implement this. The confounding bit from the article is they started in Java and ended up in C. If you were indexing with signed ints in C, C++, or any language that has unsigned integers then you already have a bug with or without the bad mean check.
