I've definitely had that happen with my Chromecast as well. Not sure if the bug lies in Netflix's app, or the way Netflix and the Chromecast communicate.

My TV also detects when the Chromecast starts casting and automatically turns on and changes to the input. Great if you want to watch something without finding the TV remote, but I've woken up numerous times in the middle of the night to find my TV on, just showing the Netflix title screen even though no devices are casting. Never had that happen with YouTube or Plex or anything else I use, so I wonder if it is just Netflix.

A physical remote for the Chromecast for pausing/fast-forwarding/rewinding is a pretty good idea. I wonder how difficult it would be to interface with the Chromecast and make a WiFi remote? Or would it have to emulate the signals that the app sends over WiFi to the Chromecast? I wonder if you could sniff the packets for pause/play/rewind and emulate them? (I smell a good idea for that dusty ol Raspberry Pi that I have on my shelf)

Tahoe could be trouble with a camper in tow, but the distance to Yosemite is only 2/3rds of the published range for the Model X -- I'd be shocked if there wasn't sufficient range to get there. Curb weight for the X is ~5,400lbs, call it 5,500lbs with driver.. Adding 5 passengers averaging 100lbs (family of 6) and 200lbs of gear would only add ~13% to the vehicles weight which would only minimally impact range since drag is a much bigger determinant for highway trips.

I found a nifty little site that takes into account elevation / vehicle weight, etc. for the actual route. Looking at the Model S, base range on the road to Yosemite with normal driving is 240 miles. Adding 700lbs to the car results in a range of 210 miles. So a 40% increase in vehicle weight only corresponds to a 12.5% decrease in range. This can be partially mitigated by driving at a "3/10" instead of a "5/10" in terms of range-extending, which results in about 225 miles of range with the same weight.

True, Chromecast only works in a world where it's assumed that everybody has a smartphone (and a decent in-home WiFi setup...) I hadn't thought about children no having smartphones or tablets, of if grandma comes over and doesn't know how to use a smartphone so she can't watch Netflix.

Can you cast to Roku through Netflix/YouTube/etc? It's not the on-TV UI that I don't like as much as it is that I like browsing through Netflix on my phone much more. I know with the Xbox One (and the 360) you can cast Netflix and YouTube to it just the same as you would to a Chromecast, so it wouldn't surprise me if other devices implement the same functionality.

Agreed - Tesla is in a position to succeed because it exceeds by traditional car criteria. The long-term benefits are visible, but don't really drive the purchasing decision. But much like Apple seems to be doing with security, it can be developed as a differentiator once traditional bona fides are established (which they seem to be).

(And this applies to any electoral reform that there is resistance to by incumbents, not just approval voting, which I don't particular prefer.)

In states with citizen initiative processes that bypass incumbent office holders, by that method. Elsewhere, by building support in the electorate and then running candidates on a platform of doing that, and keeping organized in the electorate to hold those candidates accountable.

If you combine this comment above with its parent comment on wild animals, it starts to get even more interesting. As I see it, we accept our updates and pre-fab environment (being born into cities, families, religions, ways of living, acting, and thinking we didn't choose) yet if we look to wild animals, they notice every little change in their own environment, and not only that, they're cautious as well as curious about those changes. Around 99% of people I know, and have ever met, accept all kinds of technology without debating and contemplating it first, on a micro and macro level. The individual gets left behind if he/she decides to decline any popular technology (computer, cell phone, FB, etc) or societal shift (such as migrating to cities).

I've heard first hand from academics who have this problem.

It's less of a problem if a) you're doing something more applied/normal, like software development, where you can just have a conversation or work some problems to demonstrate ability; or b) you're happy with working for gov't contractors (and don't want to e.g. return to academia).

No. In a perfect world yes, you would update immediately. However, it isn't practical. Define what's a good time frame (week, month, daily) for your server, its role, and your manpower and stick to that schedule.

I can definitely say that it is better to wait to update when you can reboot than to update immediately. Of course, if there is a really bad vulnerability, update immediately. Let the user know it's an exception.
That works for CO2, because there is no technology to mitigate CO2 release from combustion. But that isn't the case for particulate matter, carbon monoxide, or nitrogen oxides. You can't put a NOx tax on diesel because the amount of NOx you produce from burning a given quantity of diesel will vary by two orders of magnitude depending on the pollution controls.
That would be an amazing exploit. I doubt it's the case, and I hope it's not, but it would be pretty amazing.
Or, even more specifically, we could patch the rules regarding "voluntary" donations to religious-affiliated organizations so that people cannot receive any material or social (rank within the church, respect from congregation, etc.) benefit for having donated. Require that all donations to religious organizations be anonymous, for example. This would wipe out the "attack vector" the Scientology organization uses to stay so large and powerful overnight (nobody would be allowed to follow those "donate $x to become level N+1 in the church" strictures), without really materially affecting the faith, or doing much to any other organization that doesn't raise money that way.
This is so true! ... I was ready to give up on J2EE (prior to the name change and version 1.5). Java EE 7 is wonderful and more tools are coming. It's no longer an XML configuration nightmare with 10 classes to define all the required interfaces and implementation.

If this were to pass it could make some problems go away, but perhaps just change the way the problems appear. The bill doesn't seem to preclude employers from asking for salary expectations, which are what they really want to know anyway. In several cases, salary history is almost entirely irrelevant (entry level and junior roles, relocations, large changes in responsibility).

The bill does seem to be a good start for job seekers.

I cannot imagine a cyclist imagining this to be true!

Obviously aerodynamics play a part, however the cyclist's 'engine is cut' on the downhill and on big cross country roads no brakes need be used on the descents. When the 'engine' is on it goes at a certain not-quite-racing amount whether up hill or on the flat. But place a hill in the way of A to B and vastly more 'fuel' is used than A to B 'going the flat way'.

No, the UK doesn't have PR, but it's a different system to the US. From what you're arguing, the US would be better off switching to their system. If you want to do it properly, you should probably import some Germanic hereditary figurehead - perhaps Schwarzenegger could start the US royal line?

Still, I like you completely sidestepped the question of how 'stability' matches up with having a civil war that was one of the bloodiest in history. You're not actually interested in finding the best form of government; you're only interested in defending your own.
No, but I do drive sideways from time to time. I would hate it if my car applied the brakes at one of those moments.

If I wanted to repeat each word and include all the nuance the TL;DR would fail to be a TL;DR. It would be a repetition. If I thought I could fit eight paragraphs of my thoughts into a single paragraph without losing nuance, I wouldn't take eight paragraphs to express my points.

The point of a summary is to get rid of formalities for the sake of brevity. I feel I summarized my points well and accurately, and the purpose was to save time for those who do not wish to read 8 paragraphs. The trade off is that any formality and nuance is lost in the summary - and you took that lack of formality and ran with it by putting words that weren't there in the summary.
It depends on your needs, and what you want to do. If you're a big Pythonista, perhaps Jython is worth a look in. Lisper? Look more towards Clojure. Need to be able to hire developers? Plain Java will help you on that front.

Often, choosing a JVM language does not lock you into that language, as there's good interoperability. Be prepared that the first choice of language for a project might not be the best choice.

In response to the question, Java, Spring, Hibernate, and Postgres have served me well on a variety of projects. However, you need to take it with a grain of salt -- my needs will likely be different to your needs, and my skill set is almost certainly different.

Indeed. I recently received a pull request to swap Hibernate into a Dropwizard project with a relatively simple data model that was operated on by some simple JDBI repository implementations. The pull requester obviously spent a lot of time on it, and I felt bad rejecting it, but in total the Hibernate impl would have added several thousand lines of code to something that worked perfectly fine as it was. I really don't understand the need to use complex things just because they're popular.

If you are woman and want kids, biologically speaking, your twenties are the best time to make that happen.

He talks about "These days, kids tend to happen in your thirties." That tends to work fine if you are male. If you are female, it gets vastly more complicated to put off kids until after age thirty. I have to wonder how old his wife was when they started having kids. Most hetero relationships tend to be older man, younger woman. Men can easily put off becoming a parent until their thirties, in part by marrying a younger woman. That works less well if you are female.
That sounds like an argument for never punishing corporations for anything, which is clearly unworkable.

Pension and 401k plans are typically diversified across a broad range of stocks, so they won't be heavily impacted by a single company's stock price dropping. On the other hand, executives and board members, who are actually responsible for the company's actions, will typically have a large amount of that company's stock so they will be much more heavily impacted by the stock price dropping.
Yeah, I'm sure someone compromised Windows Update as a public service...

I'm a high school teacher, and I currently have 4 sections of an intro Java course with 28 students each. (And I also teach an additional 36 students in two sections of the follow-up course.)

Each student does 1-3 small programs per class day, and I grade them all by reading the code and making comments. (I'm grading in another tab as I write this; I have 91 files to mark before 2:15pm today which is the output of a single section for a single class day.)

I've written tools to help me evaluate and make comments on the files extremely quickly. So that's what I do.
Several of the forum comments mention fresh installs. So possible, but fairly unlikely.
