> This looks like just another of those naive proposals that assume that people will suddenly change their lifestyles given the right regulations.

Days before I moved to SF, I sold my car. I thought once about it, looked at the cost to park it, then sold it. Had parking in the city been substantially cheaper, I would have thought a couple of dozen times about selling the thing, and may very well have ended up keeping it, despite the fact that I would have almost never used it.

There are several 2D (ie. just-a-layer-of-blacktop, rather than a multi-story garage) parking lots in my area of the city. It's obvious that they would make more money as non-rent-controlled housing. It's somewhat clear that regulations in the city are keeping those lots open, and very clear that city regulations caused me to sell my car and use public transportation. :)

A Lateral-Thinking Puzzle
I wondered how they got around the first amendment - here's more info on that (not specific to those states) - http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org/billboards
I think the parent meant it in a more general sense. Apple doesn't single-handedly produce the iPhone, it takes the coordination of millions of people, most of whom have no contact with Apple whatsoever: those who design oil drilling equipment, those who build it, those who use oil drilling equipment, those who then extract the oil, transport it, refine it, transport it, turn it into plastic bits for the iphone, transport them, put everything together, transport it. And there's a chain like that for every thing in the phone (for some items, such as CPUs the chain is far more complex). There is no top-down command and control, and I doubt it's possible. The only reason coordination on such a massive scale works is because of the price mechanism.
"some central traffic planning system that coordinates traffic for an entire city"

That would be impressive uptime for both power and wireless connections. I was under the impression that autonomous vehicles would be more autonomous than that. Else what happens should something like http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/07/01/chicago... occur?

In any case, we're starting from the position that there are commercial parking services.

For your proposal to work, as a way to get rid of "companies like Impark" we have to assume that either that 1) street parking as you suggest will be free, ie, subsidized by the tax base as a whole, or 2) the city does not contract/sell operation of the central traffic planning system to companies like Impark.

Chicago (to mention it again), leased out its meters to a foreign corporation for 75 years.
> It depends if all the other parking in the area is restricted...

I thought we were talking about major and not-so-major cities; areas where there are mandates to install X units of parking per Y units of new housing. In places like these, unrestricted parking is almost non-existent.
This was pretty basic hack that just took a handful of minutes, but there's times where I want to quickly dump out a config file without picking up a entire configuration management tool.

I wish journalist do their research, instead of writing semi-ads.
Do you have the numbers to back up your assertion?

Do make sure to compare the revenue from parking fees/fines against revenue from other sources (both similar in size and -say- the top five or top ten sources), as well as noting what fraction of the city's entire revenue is composed of parking fees and fines. The city is pretty clued-in, technologically speaking, so this information shouldn't be too hard to get.

UK produces 162.000 ton of farmed salmon in Scotland and 11.000 ton of rainbow trout (2012) but it lacks of many suitable areas to growth and currently is the 5 or 6th european country.

Norway produced instead 1,3 million tons of salmon in 2012 (and growing). Is the first european productor and by far the largest (Spain is the second with about 260.000 tons/year of mussels). Their aquaculture industry is an strategic sector for this 'small' (in terms of population) nation.

Is interesting how Norway won against the huge japan pride focusing in improving the visibility in supermarkets and targetting people that wanted cheap food. Realizing that to target first the higher social classes was a lost battle from the start.

> I always wondered how much power could be saved if those platforms would be implemented nearer to the metal.

> JPHP where PHP could run on top of the JVM, since that introduces way more languages like Scala, Groovy, Java itself

Using the JVM to move closer to the metal only works if you use another statically typed language with it, so only Scala and Java would qualify in this regard. Groovy's a dynamically typed language used for scripting and hence fairly slow. The static typing they introduced in version 2 didn't have any uptake, either on the JVM in version 2.0 or on Android in version 2.3, hence it's still buggy for this use case.
Interesting! Lived in Japan a long time, and always half-wondered why it was "salmon" for sushi & "sake" for everything else but never asked.

For this to work, I think you are predicting there will only be a handful of large commercial companies in this autonomous future. Otherwise I don't think the economics works out.

In any case, if I go on the Great American Road Trip, I am going to have a single vehicle the whole time, yes? (Assume I rented it for a month, and that it's fully autonomous in a city.)

I don't want to load and unload all of the luggage, including the tent and stove, when I visit a city. So where do I park it?

If I rented it in Florida, and park it in L.A., does the car owning company in Florida own parking spots in L.A.? Or does it have a parking agreement with the parking facility in L.A.? Or do I contract directly with a third party parking company?

My guess is there will still be third party parking services. With the option of renting a space that's cheap but 15 miles away (adding $5 in fuel and a 25 minute latency) or a local place that's more expensive, but where I can easily fetch the suitcase I forgot in the car.
The best tool I've found so far is MITMProxy [1]. It lets you snoop all your HTTP(s) traffic from your iPhone. You just have to keep it running on your PC (or server, if you want) and set the HTTP Proxy settings accordingly. Then you have to install a CA certificate (that has been locally created and is only known by you). It is pretty interesting what data your phone is sending. Of course, you could simply trick this tool by not using HTTPS (and send it over FTP or a custom protocol instead) but it is a good start.

Magazines & newspapers shot themselves in the foot when they ran out to produce free content to "stay in the game" like everyone else.

Their original product was never free, but they didn't think that through. They made most money through ads & classified, but they still charged for the product.

Now they need to figure out how to make each visitor be worth 50 cents or whatever, and they are trying to do it in a way that people were already growing sick of when they started.

They should create a system of micropayments where people can have a instantly accessible purse & a page can charge a few cents to few, ranked by content, author, whatever.

they need to start selling their content again.

This. I did the very same thing when dealing with some code that was frequently converting between three coordinate systems.

Actually the issue is later in the chain, "don't increase the atmospheric amount of climate gas" in first order.

You're free to take out the fossil fuels if you do not use them as fuels but make plastic or whatever (which may lead to other unrelated problems), or if you manage to someone keep the CO2 from being emitted it should also be ok (and again can lead to problems, this time related, such as local and global risk of leakage etc).

On the other hand, other greenhouse gases such as methane or those from deforestation are also problematic. The order of magnitude right now is a lot smaller than the first problem, but that may not stay so. There are also some talks of deliberate climate engineering, which, in first order, may have chances to work (most involved on a deeper level think it's too risky).

All in all, the issue is quite complicated and there are a lot of possible (technical, not just economical/social) solutions with advantages and disadvantages, which I think makes the issue even harder to acknowledge.
Apple are buying back stock at quite a rate.
Yes. The question is that fishes do not eat or use carbs normally, they use fat as source of energy and protein as last resource. Salmonidae are a little different because use protein as main source of energy. They burn muscle in its travel ending skinny and with deformed heads. Thus, normally maybe the 80-90% of flesh in wild salmon is tasty protein. If you think in a "fatty fish" you never think in salmon.

Aquaculture fishes instead do not have problems to obtain fat. Fat is cheaper than protein so you have better cost-benefit ratio if you feed your salmons with more fat content pellets.

I'm not saying that the farmed salmon is a bad product at all but wild salmon is a different thing. Not so apt to freeze and send to thousands of Km. You can earn more money selling it in fresh in the local market as wild product (but be aware that some 'wild' high-prized salmon in the market is farmed probably in fact).
With something like climate change, issue is that the pain point for the problem is time deferred. An obvious comparison would be to lead in gasoline, cookware and paint: The problems that it caused took many years to surface. Getting rid of it was both expensive and required new solutions. Thankfully, we got out ahead of that problem... I'm curious if in the current political climate that would be possible.

If they remain as successful as they are now, going private will never be an option because doing so would cause complete erosion of trust by shareholders, customers, public, and world. They will become opaque entities, and it will become very difficult for them to operate globally.

Putting that problem aside, at their current valuation, a group of investors will need to raise a huge amount of capital for relatively small return.

Dell took it private because the market effectively wrote off Dell and it wasn't trading much more above the book value. So raising capital to cover the amount was not difficult because the company was still reasonably profitable with good cash flow.

> MOND

I'm not saying that MOND is correct at all, I'm saying that we believed that classical Newtonian dynamics was seen as correct at one point - just like SR is seen as correct now. My opinion is that it's highly unlikely that SR is incorrect (or partially incorrect), however, I do see it as a remote possibility.

> There are filaments and voids where the gravitational effects of unseen matter/stuff are plainly observable

Another way of looking at it is a map of the sum of things that we don't know. Again, using Mercury as an example, we were able to calculate the [sum of] force the was "wrong."
The dark matter map is incredibly cool because it's the same thing done on a unbelievably massive scale. There were certainly people who believed that this unaccounted-for force on Mercury was a single force with a trivial explanation. We now know that this was not the case.

That is, in my opinion, the same mistake we are now making - simply because we can calculate a map of the effect does not mean that it's actually a map of real stuff.

Although I'm in disagreement with MOND I do think it does something right: the μ function. "This is something that we don't know." In the same way it is in my opinion that dark matter and dark energy are merely unknown functions and not "real matter" and "real energy." I certainly think that Turner and Zwicky had the same thought pattern when they coined the terms.
