All the sectors free of excessive regulation and central planning have shown massively reduced costs.

Energy and housing - increasingly micro controlled to a fine detail, both spiralling ever upwards way in front of inflation.

Healthcare: massively regulated, increased costs.

Hiring people : massively regulated, increased costs (for the buyer) result : less buyers meaning less employment.

The problem is clearly excessive regulation but any problem is immediately met with calls for more regulation.

Until this becomes so incredibly clear that people can no longer deny it - it will just go on and on.

It's unlikely. Wild bees are not affected by the same diseases and parasites, have much more genetic diversity, and are adapted for this climate. Honeybees are not native, they have less genetic diversity from domestication and importation, and they are transported around the country by beekeepers every year (spreading their diseases and parasites around.)

Nor do they have to deal with their produce being taken by humans.

Well that's not what I said, so no.

If they said to a specific woman - say, someone who had previously done double work for Lena on Game of Thrones that she must do the scene then yes that'd be insane. Given the only credit the actress has in Game of Thrones is that scene [0] I'm inclined to believe that's not the case.

I don't necessarily think it's insane that somebody did it, but the expectation of a specific person to would be - whether that's Lena, a regular double or anyone else.

Also on a technical note, somebody else already pointed this out and I can only speculate too but I'm not convinced they'd necessarily have to film the exact same scenes twice. I don't know how they filmed it, but their cgi demo reels are really impressive and it could be very different to how it looks.

[0] I figured I'd look this up, because yea I'd agree there might be an issue if she was a regular and could have been pressured. Her imdb is http://www.imdb.com/name/nm7098431/
Probably. And claiming credit for other person's injuries is also dishonest. For the record - the only time I was really irked with body doubles was with Arni in T3. This guy was my idol, inspired me to begin lifting and seeing that he was afraid to show himself in the come from the future naked scene was sad.
If an actress (or actor fwiw) doesn't want her naked body on camera she can also not accept the role.
This is as much of a scam as any product ever sold. The creators sell you a product that will make them money. You know that you are paying more than its cost because you want it. Am I describing ethereum or a toothbrush?

This is the natural progress in movies. Movie stunts was initially done daringly by the actor like Buster Keaton, but then producers moved on to illusions, stunt doubles and green screen. If there were people who felt initially betrayed, it must only have lasted a short time.

If this article surprise me a bit, is that people still perceive part of movies as real. A person on a movie can correlate to a real actor, but with improving CGI technology it might actually be anything; One actor, several actors, or maybe just bits on a hard drive. The producers goal is to make a believable illusion and there is nothing to feel betrayed about if one figures out how it actually was made.

The word for meal in Italian, "pasto", comes from the Latin for "fed" ("pasco"), whereas the word "pasta" derives from a word meaning something like paste or dough. So "antipasto" means "before the meal", not "before the pasta".
Cities are only "saturated" if you consider existing zoning. American cities in general are distinguished by having a very large proportion of single family homes, right in the city, generally on relatively large lots. And of course, the homeowners are relatively influential in local politics so they vote for policies that prop up the value of their assets by creating artificial scarcity. Some cities have been building more than others and they have lower rents: this has more to do with local land use policies than with how "saturated" the city is.
Missing the point that you don't have to have ALL your lines > 80. Just the few that need to be so.

And for those, you can always either wrap or scroll a little to see them in a 3 way merge, it's not a big deal.

Heck, in the eighties that you champion and that they got that rule, they worked with a single 80-wide terminal view, not 2 100-wide side by side and no 3 way merges.

Re stunt doubles: I think it tells you something that some actors actually market themselves as NOT using them - eg, Jason Statham or someone like that. There is certainly a corner of (especially) the action movie audience that gets off on the risk.

Whether you'd see the equivalent with nude scenes, I don't know.
CCD hasn't been traced to insecticides though. It's a contributing factor. But there are multiple causes. Parasites and diseases are big factors too.

Honeybees are not native. They have low genetic diversity from domestication. They are transported around the country by beekeepers every year, spreading their diseases and parasites. And they have their produce taken by humans.

Even if you removed all insecticides, they might improve a bit, but I doubt they would be doing well. And if they did get wiped out, so what? They aren't native, and there are wild bees that would replace them.

I keep seeing comments and articles implying that all bees are going extinct and that this will be cataclysmic. It's just a ridiculous misunderstanding of what is happening.
Thank you for the kind words.

right, first things first, none of this is new.

lets start with the more obvious stuff, what you see in film isn't real. No really.

Just look atthe harry potter series; all those kids went through puberty, it was as equally unkind for them as it was for us.

An entire generation of VFX people cut their teeth painting out the pimples on many a potter face.

Then there is the making older people look young. You know those actors(male and female) that always seem to look around 30, despite pushing 55? that almost exclusively digital. I used to do night shifts with a bloke who's entire job was to remove crows feet (and a lot more) for a very successful British chick flick.

then you have the other extreme, you know those shots where people have arms missing? or facial disfigurement?

As for body doubles, thats been going on for decades. pretty much any shot that involves the back of some star, there is a 50% chance that its a body double, or a stand-in. Mainly because its cheaper.

Look here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHRLX8jRjq8 You see Daniel Craig zoom around riding a motor cycle like a pro, except you don't. Its either a bike welded to a trailer (0:34), or a face replacement. The first Digital double is at 0:42 (there are lots more.)

So you can see that actually it happens a lot, and frankly there is nothing wrong with it. In fact there is a whole achademic field devoted to it, (fun thing, google "digital doubles framestore")

Its basically a case of some dickhead wanting to see tits, and feeling cheated because he can't command someone he's never met to do a full frontal scene for the price of a movie ticket (or less)

A 51 year old man came into the hospital yesterday with chest pain. He was having a major heart attack. I watched the cardiologist catheterize and stent his coronaries. i saw the moment that the stent opened the coronary artery. I saw the blood flow restored to the left heart. The patient was 51, and that doctor, with the flick of his wrist, added decades to the mans life. That doctor does this everyday.

You should have the whole context comfortably within view, which means all the characters in the lines above and below should be in the same 10 degree visual block, i.e. about 80 characters.

The exact value of 80 characters might be because of IBM punched cards, but that value was chosen because printed media already had that limit, or a smaller limit, e.g. broadsheet newspaper columns. People have been writing that way for millennia.

Two other points:

(1) 70 or 90 might have been acceptable alternatives, but 80 was chosen. It's approximate. Fewer limits the amount of information per line, and more limits the font size you need to scan comfortably. A wider screen allow you to open up several windows. Having one big window isn't such a good idea.

(2) I have never been bothered by this limit, except when others break it and I have to read their code. Occasionally, sticking to it requires some thought regarding program layout. If you find yourself exceeding 80 columns often, you're probably doing something wrong. You might be nesting your code too deeply when you could call a function which handles some of your conditional logic, or your function names are too long, which suggests the underlying functions are doing too much and should be split up.
The Buttcoin post details the actions of one exchange. In a decentralized system you can't control everybody's actions.

The "premined" coins mostly went to the people who pitched in for the crowdfund. That was open to anyone and well-publicized, and the money went towards Ethereum's development. They hired about thirty people.

The "smart contract" stuff is real working technology, and it's the niftiest thing I've seen since Bitcoin. Ethereum is also the first production implementation of GHOST, which gives the same security with a 15-second block time that Bitcoin's algorithm gets with 10 minutes.
>The obvious question a newcomer would have to that particular code is "Can't a color be bright and light at the same time? Why?".

It can and the code in question will print both "bright" and "light" if passed a color that matches that.

Where did you see that it's an either-or affair in the example?

Besides, the key point, is that the code talks about luminocity and brightness levels, and the second example makes that explicit. No comments needed if you know what HSV is. And if you don't, comments are usually not the place to learn about it.
Reason A is a good reason to refuse to make your order.
Maybe I'm too cynical, but my first thought when reading this was, let's see how highly paid professionals react when technology is coming for their jobs.

But of course, a few phone calls, the passing of some additional legislation if needed, and they will be completely protected from any financial ramifications. At least the world will still be a better place if this technology actually works.
> The fact that what you eat before the main course is called the before-pasti makes it pretty clear. The word for meal is basically also the word for pasta.

pasto (plural "pasti") = course, pasta (plural "paste") = dried paste made with wheat and watter

> It's that in many parts of Italy, that's all there is, and they seem to be proud of this limited range.

That's wrong. Regional cuisine in Italy is obviously richer than the cuisine of the whole UK, and if all you can manage to find in a city like Naples is pasta and pizza, maybe you need adult supervision.

What's this name() and ipaddr()?

Sure, Java 8 has lambads, but have their disposed of getters and setters and added some kind of properties?

If not, then the idiomatic way is not name(), it's getName().

What is the goal of the project?
I think of technique in very different terms. Technique is the ability to execute very precisely what's in your head on your instrument. That ability is meaningless without all the things you list, especially, I'd say, imagination, but so too are those things meaningless without technique. You can have all the imagination in the world, but if you can't execute what's in your head exactly, that imagination will not be illuminated for the audience.
