Thank you - this is a very good point.

If you are optimizing for some variable (speed, ease, movement, etc.) there are cases where each of CLI and Mouse are the best choice.

For instance, selecting text: I know very well how to do this in screen, pine, vi, etc., but there's really no point and it is never the right choice. Even in a fully CLI terminal environment with not even a browser open, I do still want a pointing device for selecting text.
> Nowadays it starts to provide brains, which makes it replace services. As it continues, where will the human labour go?

Is there actual evidence of this? As in, actual statistics rather than grandiose claims of AI destroying the human race?

Yes, you might get replaced by a piece of software and you may need to retrain to a different industry, but this has always been true.

> The number of jobs was highly correlated to the size of population so far, but we already see the rise of bullshit jobs

This doesn't make any sense. At some point, someone is handing over money and expects a specific amount of work be done, which he finds to be a good exchange. It's far easier not to hire someone, than to hire them. So if you don't need work done ... you don't hire anyone.

Why would someone pay someone else money to perform "bullshit"? You only have instances of this when it is mandated by regulation, not in a free market.

That's not quite my view. If the "second boyfriend" relationship is one that normally comes with obligations like taking someone in temporarily, then that second boyfriend is more obligated than other parties. If the other guy is just a NSA hookup, then he's definitely not obligated - such a relationship establishes no such obligation.

(I'm not very familiar with the "second boyfriend" relationship, having never actually taken on that role.)
That's not my experience. Lots of people just don't think about it.

This may sound like a dumb example but I went to a meetup once, expected 20-25 people. Arrived and there were 6 footlong sandwiches. Clearly with 20-25 people coming the organizers expected them to be cut into around 2-3 inch portions. At 3 inches that would be 24 mini sandwiches.

For whatever reason 2 of my friends just helped themselves to a sandwich each. They are 2 of the nicest people I know. I never asked what was going through their minds. I assume they just didn't think about or thought first come first served or something. There's no way I'd describe them as sociopaths.

I've seen similar behavior quite often. People don't think or maybe they view the world in someway where there apparent selfish behavior is rational. Next time someone else will be first or something. Today is my turn, someone else will get it tomorrow. Or maybe they're just not thinking, like the 50% of people who stand in front of a train door or an elevator door to board blocking the people trying to get off or the people that stand and have a discussion the moment they step of the escalator blocking everyone about to exit. I don't think those people are sociopaths but they are being unintentionally selfish

+1 for mentioning entry level book. Can anyone comment about quality?
Agreed! As to be constructive, I'd like to draw attention that the "rustic" and earthy subject matter seemed to be matched by the style. The parchment type background to simulate paper was a nice touch, and the color palette melded nicely with the subject matter. It might seem obvious in discussion, but I think most non-visual arts/verbal arts producers might just feel it works without drawing attention to itself.

Also, thanks for noting TheSkimm. It's exciting to see genuine passion for communication be able to carve out a niche on the web.

Likewise the vast majority of modern computer software, though alcohol does share credit. There's a saying that Microsoft wouldn't be able to hire anyone if they drug tested. (Though Nintendo does drug test.) And, for alcohol, there's the famous Ballmer Curve: https://xkcd.com/323/
Thanks. I don't think I need to do that yet and not really sure what I would include. I guess on balance, I think I am somewhat abnormal in terms of goals and stuff, and have never achieved a high level of success but don't think I am overtly crazy to the point that I need this yet.

I recently had to move back to the rural area I am from and although I am quite social, have had limited interaction with people outside my family. There is a single store in my town, no stoplights etc rural as fuck. No one in my demo. I think I need to start getting out more but will keep this link in case.
and that is just more taxes without fixing how property taxes are used - we don't need more "progressive" taxes like that. Never mind the contractors and laborers who would be hurt by a lessening of new, more expensive homes. We tried that with luxury items and killed the yacht building industry in the US and put a lot of skilled craftspeople out of work.
Can't blame people with means for planning for everything, but you have to admit this reeks a bit of art imitating life, what with the Bioshock vibe of these residences.

She has a disability. And I do not qualify for ssi.

I have cystic fibrosis. I am getting myself well when doctors say it cannot be done. Having CF does not qualify you for disability. You qualify based on having allowed infection to eat away enough of your lungs so as to have reduced lung capacity below a certain threshold. Based on my last x-rays and the fact that it no longer hurts like a bitch to breathe, the hole in my left lung appears to be gone. So I will never qualify for disability. I am too competent.

> to add funtional programming, hook and fork, easier tacit programming and fix certain other issues that even Ken Iverson himself acknowledged

Whitney and Iverson disagreed about a lot of these things - e.g. Whitney prefers scan and fold to go left-to-right, rather than Iverson's right-to-left. Iverson is consistent with the rest of the language, Whitney is not (though much more practical). Also, Iverson added hook and fork; Whitney preferred the much simpler multi-monadic or dyadic-multi-monadic juxtaposition.

I don't remember where I read this, but I do remember reading Iverson conceding that Whitney's practical approach is probably a better idea than his own pure approach.

Well... "Not happy" - depends on who you ask in Lithuania. My great grandmother was killed by nationalists near Zarasai. So her daughter - my grandmother - was brought up by relatives in Kaunas, and understandably never had any sympathies for the pre-war Lithuanian state and people missing it. She's still alive, by the way, and hates the way modern Lithuanian official historians idealize "forest brothers", nationalists, etc.

This does not make USSR a much better place, of course, but they did just let everyone go in the end, didn't they..? I still remember all those endless trains with tanks going east. I can't really remember too many examples of such a "mild" empire, em, disappearance.
A simpler alternative that has existed for decades in Mac OS is right-click disk -> Get Info, which is analogue to right-click disk -> Properties on Windows.

The author of the linked article points out there are competing interpretations under which mass-energy is still conserved on the small scale. It's just that if you introduce the variable of local gravitational energy you wind up with a system of more variables than equations. We don't presently know of any laws that further constrain the system of equations to a unique solution unless we take local conservation of energy as an axiom... which of course prevents us from proving local conservation of energy.

However, we don't have any observations that are inconsistent with local conservation of energy if gravitational energy is taken into account.
I think this make sense sense. I am sure others find this dangerous but the lack of balance in my life can also I would imagine, cause problems mentally.

Two options for showing line numbers: (1) pipe the first command through nl; (2) use a single grep with the line numbering option (it's at least in GNU grep):

grep -n '^+.*FIXME'

You can also pipe git diff into less or "vim -" to use slash search.

Note: on a phone so -n may not be correct.

This all seems nice in theory to think of it has some utopian future with robots flying all around. However, the economics of small UAVs carrying cargo do not make sense. It simply isn't worth the cost and it isn't efficient to lift small amounts of weight. Otherwise FedEx, UPS would be doing it.

It's more efficient to use a large winged craft that has immense economies of scale in a hub and spoke distribution architecture, just like FedEx and UPS do.

Things may change in the future but right now the overhead of UAV flight is too significant. Also, too complicated. And keeping in mind it's much harder to control a lightweight craft in 20 mph wind than a large jet.
I second that. It's what Google recommend (among other things) to prepare for an interview.

My view is a project is only a success if all stakeholders are happy at the end. To succeed, you therefore need to:
1. Know who all the stakeholders are
2. Know what they expect
3. Come up with a plan to satisfy 2
4. As you go along, and you see reality differs from 3, you must either change 2 or change 3, or a bit of both.

A PM's job is expectation management. Delivering on expectation will most of the time include having to change the expectation to match the reality at the end of the project. It's usually easier to change expectations earlier rather than later, and also by not saying "no", but rather by saying "let's rather do this".
Somehow I can't imagine luxury home building and luxury yacht building industries are going to get much sympathy from the vast majority of Americans, whose median family income is around $40k per year.
It's less about `class` and inheritance than it is about misuse of code reuse.

This is a fascinating perspective, but I can't help but wonder if it cuts both ways: In the same way that current auto makers may underestimate their dependence on commodity chips in EVs and autonomous cars, the author may be underestimating Apple's potential dependence on commodity mechanical systems.

Of course, there's no reason Apple couldn't suddenly pick up one of Delphi's smaller competitors next week.

It's my body, so yes. It's legal to kill an unborn fetus that lives in my body, but it's not legal to grow some poppies and ingest them? That's ridiculous to me. It's my body.

Don't make some substance illegal because I might commit some other crime while pursuing my addiction. Arrest me if and when I commit some other crime. If shit were legal, it'd probably be pretty cheap anyway because we'd be able to grow our own.

People who work towards keeping the drug war going are the people who benefit from it. They do not care about other people's bodies or safety from crime. They just want their money and power. All sorts of money disappears when drugs are made legal. Local police can't just seize money anymore, DEA can't have any funding, CIA can't make any money for black-ops and so on and so forth. They'll never give that money up, so it's just never going to be legal. Maybe pot will, but harder drugs - never.

40mg of adderall daily is the maximum allowed daily amount. That makes me wonder in and of itself..I am going to go out on a limb here and say you are abusing it. Probably a lack of sleep leading to paranoia. Someone hacking your phone? It could happen. More likely is you are either having your first break from reality with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, etc. or you are having paranoia and a mental breakdown secondary to drug abuse and lack of sleep.

Why are you taking 40mg adderall daily?

Why not just charge for parking instead of for charging? Charging is included in the price. If people want to pay to not charge so be it!
Author of the piece here. Thanks for the perspective. Note it's interesting that Tesla was able to start out (with a fraction of Apple's resources) by building their first car on the Lotus platform. The mechanical stuff is interestingly not expensive compared to technology R&D at all. Which makes sense when you think about modern manufacturing and materials.
Based on your username it seems possible to me you're a fan of the TV show MR Robot as the main character has a fish called QWERTY.
The main character Elliot suffers from anxiety, depression, insomnia and mania.

I would consider that unless like Elliot you're trying to reset society's debt to zero it's unlikely you're being targeted. What makes you worth targeting over anyone else?

I think you should speak to a medical professional (get multiple opinions if you don't trust them) and move on from there.

There's a lot we can learn from Mr Robot, for me the biggest lesson is you can't always trust what you see and feel. Find somebody who can help you with that.

Because the point is to provide charging stations to increase EV viability, not to provide parking. The parking is a side-effect/necessity.
Nobody "proved" anything. Proof is for math and alcohol, as they say.

I wouldn't have thought of it as begging the question, because it didn't occur to me that the empirical question of what the results are was in dispute! Yes, I suppose if you believe that this sort of Copenhagen-based complaining actually consistently leads people to do (1) rather than (2), rather than mostly resulting in (4), there would be little reason to have a problem with it. As it is, I'm not prepared to argue that empirical question right now, so I'm just going to note that I disagree and and that there's any number of examples of (4) out there.
Well that sucks.

But when faced with problems the only option is to find a solution.
Also thought of this. Might be a stretch but certainly worth investigating.
OP, I would advise you to get help in person from professionals, not from friends, family, and the internet.

Ziles88, while you are sincerely trying to be helpful, the DSM-5 criteria for Schizoaffective Disorder requires 2 continuous weeks of psychotic symptoms without mood symptoms, not 2 days accompanied by mood. The criteria were changed precisely because it was being diagnosed incorrectly.

but even better is to stick with actual symptoms and stay away from labels; the labels cover broad ranges of symptoms in a way that is useful to trained professionals who understand the nuances and limitations, but individuals don't show such ranges.

And because DigitalOcean doesn't have load balancing as a service, people generally just expose their Droplet to the internet as their website. Netcraft's methodology works fine here, likely misses or undercounts Droplets behind nginx/HAproxy and is wildly off for people behind load balancers like Google's Load Balancer Or AWS's ELB.

The correct answer is go to a health professional and have them evaluate your mental and physical health objectively.
As it is, it's quite difficult to get back to your car at the exact timing of completion.

I think it would be vastly preferable if:

1) All cars and chargers had a clear and consistent signal to show that they are done charging. In my area, few chargers indicate charging status, and every car has it's own completely inconsistent meaning when it comes to lights, it seems.

2) Each charging port could access multiple parking spots.

3) It was considered polite to unplug a charged car and plug in your own (this is already mostly the case).

4) Charging locations were not placed at the best parking locations, but spread out.

A charging station need not be so expensive that it has to be used continuously to justify its capital cost. Better to have them spread out and plentifully available, but until we're there, there's many ways to make each charging port more valuable without causing serious inconvenience.
I guess the parent is taken notice to,

>Basically, if you're benefiting unfairly from a system since birth, you've started off with negative points. You owe the world something to balance off what you've gotten "for free" (really, at others' cost).

Which is basically saying that no matter what you do, since you are white, your actions are of less value, and you should do more to achieve the same "points" as others. Which I would say is actually quite a racist view, but hey, no one cares about racism against whites, because that's just impossible.

Of course, I doubt that you in any way intended that interpretation, but am merely stating what the reaction is based on.

Your money analogy is a bit better, although I do not agree with the stance that white people (or wealthy, or any other group for that matter) somehow "owe" the public anything more than anyone else, simply because of their birth. That though, is entirely my personal opinion though.
