But that's not all. If anyone does anything with the information then the money diverges from ideal money because it is no longer as fungible. The usability becomes crippled and more complex in the best case, while completely unusable in the worst case.

The end result is that people won't choose that money. The idea of what people 'should' use or 'the money that would be best for everyone' is shaky - people will use what serves their purposes the best.

For the first time people have real choice in the money they use, and they aren't going to choose something with regard to the greater good, it never works like that in a system of people with competing incentives except through violence.

The same idea coincides with inflation. People say 'a deflationary currency won't work'. The truth is, it will work at some point because it must - no one given a choice would choose an inflationary currency all else being equal. While all else is certainly not equal, people for the first time have that choice. The same applies to colored coins.
Hijackability is probably a feature of most consumer grade devices - accidental or not. What Lenovo did was a specific attack that enabled them blatantly to inject their own content and also did so crappily that it opened a whole back door. It's not like I expect my outdoor to be burglar proof. I do expect, however, for my door manufacturer not to give out keys and assist the tupperware sales reps to help themselves in to my living room.
Question for those of you with dash cams: What do you use and why?

"Spirit of Aikido" was my thoughts, a conjecture, not a claim as spokesperson on behalf of the Aikido community. :)

To rephrase what I said before:
If a high-ranking Aikidoka wants to play UFC, they're certainly free to do so. However, I think none have done so because it goes against the spirit of Aikido. (e.g. people attracted to Aikido are not those attracted to UFC, Aikidoka UFC fans don't associate Aikido with UFC)

"But the setters are the wizards who really run the show. They are to a climbing wall what coders are to a video game, the geeks who keep you up all night obsessing over that winning sequence"

This analogy with coders is pretty sweet. I really miss indoor climbing and bouldering, such fantastic mental exercises (which ironically relax you quite a bit even though your whole body aches) after a long day of work in front of a computer.
I've read this and follow the guy on facebook. It is a bit over-spiritual for my tastes but he points out some good points along the way. It has been a while, but ultimately I felt like he ignored some of the reality of 'very bad things can happen' and 'people are greedy.'

I've tried to include those realities in some of my thinking on what money should be: https://vimeo.com/user17783424/review/123631462/ae47903c89#t...
I got the transcend drivepro 200 with the suction mount. I picked it because the video quality day and night were rated near the top, and it has wifi so I can configure it/download videos easily from my phone.

Nothing like the immediacy of a potential punch to the face to make all other stress in your life melt away and become meaningless.
The necessity of focus and putting everything else out of your mind is similar in motorcycling, FWIW.

Bikes are probably more likely to kill you though. But not as likely as horse riding - that's a seriously dangerous sport.
Cool, starred this for later! I want to see the results and compare with our current flux architectures at my work place.

It would be cool to see more things like this, maybe here on HN, or maybe some other website? I really like TodoMvc but it's a bit too simplistic to see the strengths/weaknesses of each library/framework. Sometimes you need something more in-depth to start getting the larger picture of what patterns and architecture works well. Also.. sometimes I feel like I'm floundering trying to make something elegant, then to find out later someone else already has thought through alot of the nuances. If I had some easy way to search for what the community deems as "good" code, it could really help speed up development.
You give all this solid critique but didn't consider that maybe some assets (CSS, JavaScript) were not getting properly included/cached/invalidated? That shit happens to even companies at the scale of Microsoft. But rather than waiting a few minutes and see whether it is fixed you immediately scream "IT'S NOT WORKING! LOOKS HORRIBLE! LOL MICROSOFT! APPLE DOES IT BETTER". You are like a stereotype head-of-QA. ;)
Not necessarily. The privacy rules protect personal data of EU citizens. You can share as many cat pictures as you want without safe harbour. However share my name, contacts, address and date of birth in the US and by proxy then share it with the NSA, then thanks but no thanks.
Ugh, I really need to not touch HN until I drink a cup of coffee in the morning.
I'm suggesting it's essential to use third party services to do the things that aren't innovative, so you have the time, runway, and focus to do the innovative things.

For example, no SaaS startup should be writing their own payment system unless they're a fintech startup doing payments. If you're wasting time building things that you buy in for much lower cost then you will fail.
I like the G1W-C models for cheap and works, and the BlackVue DR* (I have a DR650-GW) models for "really nice."

The BlackVue models have GPS, which is nice because it provides a speed readout overlaid on the video. They also have WiFi (mostly useless IMO) and run Linux, which means there are a few interesting hacks for them.

Two often-overlooked things to look for are:

* A capacitor for power-off storage (this is what keeps the camera on while the video is finalized and buffers flushed) instead of a LiPo, which is ill-suited to use in a hot, sunny area like the windshield.

* A discrete design without flashy chrome bits and blinky lights everywhere. The last think you want is someone breaking in and stealing your dashcam itself.
I think you're misinformed. They used to get listings via list hub. But their new owner Rupert Murdoch chose to freeze out Zillow. Now z has forged direct mls deals for most of the markets. I'm curious where you're looking that it's a ghost town?

Realtor.com has no leverage over anybody.
I thought MS had mostly done away with CALs? I haven't been in an environment without Enterprise Software Assurance for a while, but I thought they were actively moving even their SMB customers over to SA licensing as well. No idea how far their plans got though...

Smart contract are a great idea, but they aren't exactly what you are describing and are orthogonal to the original thread.

Smart contracts are further uses of the immutable shared ledger.

In my experience, mechanical engineers spend a lot of time working on how to make things more manufacturable, and both in their degree programs and on the job, they often spend enough time getting their hands dirty to have some intuition for manufacturing. I think the more common disconnect is between the guy who designs the machine and the guy who has to fix it and cusses him out because there is no reason you should have to take the whole damn engine out to replace that damn piece of rubber that wears out twice a year.
Zillow has had direct mls feeds in most markets since the spring.

Edit: most markets by aggregate size. That is, they've signed the largest mls'.
I use a standard Blackvue HD camera because it was recommended to me - the quality is high enough to make out details (like plates) and it has good low light performance. It works long enough to ensure if I have an accident I can pull the card out and be good to go (I don't need hours of recording, right?)

It has front and back cameras, but I only use the front one as I'm too lazy to wire it in and assume 99% of likely trouble is at the front of the vehicle (yes, people can rear-end you, but in my country that person is almost automatically in the wrong).

If you forget about how many "service" a person is subscribed too, you realize that they are ultimately limited by TIME. In that sense, every human activity is part of a zero sum game except in circumstances where two can be done at once - like running while listening to iTunes. The market for human-hours is finite. I've wondered if GDP could be increased by reducing work hours, it would free up more time for consumption!
But the thing I don't understand is why they don't make it possible to run a full Windows on phones that already has the Intel Atom quad-core CPU which can run full Windows in tablets with good performance. For example the ASUS Zenfone 2 not only has the Intel CPU but 4GB RAM too. It could be just a question of having Windows drivers for the components like the PowerVR GPU.

The Microsoft case is about extraterritorial limits of search warrants, not subpoenas.

If physics research is anything similar to e.g. software development/design/creation, I think it is. Any project I have seen with that has been successful has one or a few visionary/whole picture kinda type leaders, and then a number of competent foot soldiers.

The key is to combine the vision part with the ability to manage and motivate the team.

> When money holds value, it is hoarded. When it is hoarded, it is unproductive.

Except it's not hoarded, it's reinvested. The consumption of created value is deferred while accruing interest at a market rate. This interest rate is an important signal to the greater economy weather to start long-term projects now or later. If interest rates are too high, big projects will be financed later while simultaneously incentivizing value producers to defer consumption. To me this is the best regulator for why you don't "drink the bottle of water all at one time".

> Good money losses value

Money is a naturally occurring phenomena amongst rational actors. Any highly marketable commodity that can be expected to be traded at a later date can act as a form of money - for example, cigarettes in prison. I can't imagine someone wanting their cigarettes to be prone to dissolving.

I personally wonder if we can trade without money at all. For example, trading digital certificates that represent real-world assets (stocks, commodities). Prices can be denominated in any asset, and payments go thru a clearing house that matches and settles trades in real time. This would let me go to Subway and buy a sandwhich denominated in Apple stock that I payed for with shares of crude oil stock.

I agree that operating drones in restricted airspace is stupid and ignorant, but it's exceptionally unlikely that drones of the size flown by most hobbyists (<8 lb, just a few feet wide) would cause that sort of damage to a commercial airliner.
There is zero disagreement that interest (and more generally, "riba") is forbidden. Just a couple of references (there are way more):

From the Quran:

* http://quran.com/2/275

* http://quran.com/4/161

From the Hadith:

* The Prophet, Peace be upon him, said: "There will certainly come a time for mankind when everyone will take riba and if he does not do so, its dust will reach him."

* The Prophet, Peace be upon him, cursed the receiver and the payer of interest, the one who records it and the two witnesses to the transaction and said: "They are all alike [in guilt]."

Meanwhile, the EU countries have spying regimes of their own that are just as intrusive. They want EU citizen data on-shore so they can spy on it, not so that the US cannot. They've become the Iron Curtain. I'm not even certain I can blame the NSA. The Europeans have voted technological totalitarianism in. The EU Cookie law predates Snowden, and was a mild precursor of failures to come.

What I do: Backend engineer / Sysadmin.

Do you need a backend service to talk to your flashy new web / mobile app?

Does your current build and deployment system give you nightmares about the only dev who understands it falling under a bus?

Need a proof-of-concept for your latest, hard-to-pigeonhole idea?

I do have experience of the full stack (including AngularJS and Coffeescript; see below) but am looking for work primarily involving the back end of the stack, or server admin / reliability / scaling. In previous lives I've run large-scale Debian installations doing devops before it had a name, and been responsible for servers in Antarctica.

Recent work:

* Custom 'net-connected controller for long-term timelapse projects. (FreeBSD, Arduino)

* Migration of existing Node.js+Firebase service to Golang+PostgreSQL on AWS

* Feasibility study investigating the possiblility of writing custom code to interface with a biometric timeclock (Common Lisp)

* Proof-of-concept hardware development for projects linking the physical and virtual worlds in real time (Arduino, Node.js)

* Project management webapp for construction companies (Rails, AngularJS, Bootstrap)

There have been some studies showing that militant tactics in the civil rights era provoked conservative backlashes compared to geographic areas where militant tactics were not employed. We're not in the realm of pure hypothesis and supposition anymore.

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2015/05/new-study-shows...

It's worth considering that the people in power who say the militants are hurting their cause may be speaking the truth. Rather than dismissing them out of hand because you find their motives suspect.

Having trained in Aikido, Ju-Jitsu, and Wing Tsun... I agree.

Aikido isn't bad but it's not what I'd recommend to someone as a fighting style. Wing Tsun's Lat Sao drills sometimes get derided (by people who don't know any better) as "play fighting" but Aikido is pretty much always trained in that sort of form.

Also the minimizing harm to the opponent is the exact opposite you want to end a confrontation.

Depends on the local regulations, but yes, real estate has gone through quite a bit of regulatory capture. Might be possible to do an end-run via the same mechanisms that allow "for sale by owner".
Historically, militants can and have provoked backlashes. These can harm the overall cause.

You say "can't handle", I say "don't prefer". Older people are massive consumers of news, yet (as a demographic) are not well-represented in Reddit's userbase. That's not because they're idiots; it's because other sites surface content for them in a far more understandable way, in comparison.

A site experience can be inclusive or exclusive. I'm arguing that it's exclusive.

Generating quines in Ruby
I know, and stand by what I said.
There are no dumb questions :-), but no, this is not what will happen. For one thing, the ice that floats around in sea displaces exactly as much water as ice (uses the same 'water volume') as it will as water. (Almost, because the water volume per mass will actually increase with increasing temperatures, which is quite a significant effect). However, a large amount of ice is on land, where it doesn't contribute to ocean volume. If it were to melt that would be a major contributor to sea level rise.

Also, the average humidity is quite stable on earth, and any excess water that evaporates into the atmosphere quickly rains out again. Furthermore, the amount of water in the atmosphere is very small in comparison to the amount of water in the oceans. (See e.g. here: http://water.usgs.gov/edu/watercycleatmosphere.html). So it is very difficult to imagine that an increased humidity would have a significant effect on the sea level.
Alexis,

You might want to put some of that in the about menu. Right now it's not immediately obvious what the site is/does.
