A challenge for stellarator researchers is the complexity of the geometry, which makes theoretical models really tricky to build (there's already a lot of complexity in the 'simple' tokamak ones)
Howover, a significant pro for stellarators: magnetic geometry is already twisted (necessary condition for confinement), so it is more prone to continuous operation than tokamaks, where you have to twist the field lines (still difficult to do continuously)
I am just going to point to our work at sparql.uniprot.org.
A graph database with 17 billion edges and 3 billion+ nodes.
Containing in its whole the NCBI tax and GO tax trees. That you can access for free over HTTP using standard SPARQL 1.1.
This does not run on a cluster but single nodes with Virtuoso 7.2.1.

I am not saying that Neo4J is a bad choice, I am just saying that it due to its lack of federation support it is an expensive choice for the life sciences. i.e. an economic argument over a technical one, and not even looking at 1 project a time but in general for the community. Neo4J and Cypher will never support federation in the way that SPARQL allows. This is because all this URI business in RDF is annoying when modelling your data but critical when merging datasets on demand between separate databases. e.g. joining ChEMBL & UniProt & MeSH & PubChem etc...

We in the life sciences rarely do graph traversals for graph traversal sake, but tend to join trees. e.g. intersect a branch of a taxonomic tree with a branch of the GO tree. There are cases where real graph traversals are being done (assembly&variation graphs).

OpenCypher is a great step forward. Now Neo4J needs a open public standard for serializing graphs to disk that can imported into Neo4J and other databases. RDF being supported by so many different databases allows us to support many more of our users (at UniProt) even if they don't use SPARQL or our choice of Graph database themselves.
" Recession means that the labor share of income goes up, not down."

I think that is the way a capitalist system is supposed to work. Unfortunately in the UK and the US at least, they have been throwing money at the problem in the form of quantative easing. This has almost certainly kept asset prices high (the UK is well overdue for a hous price crash), and I assume that it has the effects of keeping labor prices lower.

I really wish more science writers would explain what "observation" actually means. This article is better than most, but generally one leaves quantum-effect discussions with the impression that atoms can literally tell when a human brain is perceiving them, presumably through magic science brain waves.

Bill Gates: How much do you know about the state of the world?
Pgcli is good, but there are two "modes" to use DB. One is interactive querying, which pgcli is good for.

The other is developing a complex query and running it again and again, while watching the result, or maybe running multiple queries and comparing the result, etc. That is more of a task for text editor that can execute queries than a CLI query tool.

Now, I don't think this is worth the 30 USD. Something like the upcoming 0xDBE might be worth it, especially since you can avoid stupid Oracle SQL Developer that hands every time there's a network problem.

The title "Cold war files show UK fear of US H-bomb" is quite misleading. The UK feard that the Russians would attack them with hydrogen bombs. Can't see where the US fit into this, except for pioneering the hydrogen bomb, but that doesn't make all hydrogen bombs US bombs.

Well, even if it ends up not working, you learned a lot along the way. Ambitious engineering efforts are never completely wasted.
Out of curiosity (I haven't got an IPFS installation on hand, so I can't test) -- what'd be the effect of adding a:

curl https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmTtmsSSTH5fMQ9fn9NRXWtcZXnBBazxR8fidXcE5KB76h

before the "rm -R"-line? I'm guessing it might not be something the gateway servers are set up for doing ATM -- but maybe they should, or a cluster of IPFS node should be set up for that?

I'm not sure if forcing a full download of the whole file is a waste of bandwidth, or a clever way to force the person adding a file to the cache at least perform some effort by "using" the same amount of incoming bandwidth as the cache nodes would have to on the back-end.

My initial thought was that such a system should allow "seeding" the cache by simply sending a HEAD or similar request...

I have worked at companies where more balanced policies obtained. For examples, founders paid themselves the current median engineering salary; but no raises were offered to engineering staff. So who ended up with the paycut?

I don't think the author is saying all startups are pushing disproportionate risk on to the employees -- only that most are.

To be able to make an argument like the author is making, we can't work from one or two individual experiences -- which is what both you and I are doing with our examples -- but rather take in the field as a whole. Standardized agreements and standardized terms provide such an aggregate view; they are the best estimates of informed participants as to what they can get away with. The point about inflexibility as regards equity compensation is a bellwether.
Georgism
I like cypher, then gremlin for small queries. The problem is the queries I see are much, much larger. And at about 10 lines in the use of white space in SPARQL starts to make a
real difference in readability in my opinion.

That can of course also be affected by my slight reading disability where the shape of the words is important. This shape could be disturbed by the connecting sigils in both gremlin and Cypher. So I understand that my preference might not hold for the whole population :)
way faster actually. (RoR dev for several years here).

You have zero-config user account system and drop-in admin panels (zero config) here too. more precise: you just code up templates and declare that you have data (mongo being schema-free helps in this case) and code up interactions with a few lines. done. with stuff like auto-form and other goodies, a CRUD SPA with batteries included is done in a few minutes, ready to run.

But don't dare to dabble with correct deployment, testing or stuff like that, waste of time.
Interplanetary architecture
Not disagreeing, but there is a fine-line between an argument being wrong and that the conclusion being wrong. Are you really right when you use an incorrect argument/process/information to arrive to the right conclusion? There's a whole epistemological debate to be had about the intersection of belief, knowledge and truth.

No, I'm definitely thinking of the fact that observation inhibits change in a quantum system. I'm fairly certain I was taught this was the case and was experimentally verified. 'Long ago' here means ~20 years ago.
BrowserId didn't tie your identity to your browser. It tied your identity to your email address, and made it possible to have several identities to choose from.

The selling point was the browser integration. This would be especially awesome on mobile.
Pretty cool but that pricing... I'd be happy to shell out $9 if the trial was successful and the app felt more useful than the alternatives. But $29?
Interesting comment.

Could you elaborate on the capability of Meteor to handle middle size pressure.
I am not Google, I am not Facebook. But I have some hundred users, putting a very moderate load on a basic CRUD application, with classic simple client-side interaction.
Can I expect Meteor to handle that case just fine?

"Let’s take a look at how it works."

Yeah, let's not and say we did. Instead, how about we take a look at how Telerik works (satire, based loosely on my own experiences with them):

Customer: "I've found a show-stopping bug in RadFoobarWidget1... can you give me an estimate as to when you're going to fix this?"

Telerik: "You're still using RadFoobarWidget1?!? We found a bug in that control, so we rewrote the whole thing and called it RadFoobarWidget2."

Customer: "Uh. Okay. But it seems like RadFoobarWidget2 dropped features that we already depended on in our commercial product release... are you going to reintroduce those any time soon?"

Telerik: "You're still using RadFoobarWidget2?!? We rewrote that as RadFoobarWidget3... It's totally different now, but, like, way way better and stuff."

Customer: "Uh. Okay, but RadFoobarWidget3 has even less features than RadFoobarWidget2 (which totally screwed us), are you planning on fixing that any time soon?"

Telerik: "RadFoobarWidget3?!? That's so last week. Why aren't you using RadFoobarWidget4?!?"

Customer: "Sigh..."
Chromebooks are explicitly designed to permit re-keying, although it does require you to physically disassemble the machine[1]. And if anything, we're seeing more user-unlockable mobile devices now than we did in the past. At the high end, server vendors want to maintain control of their keys, and there are large companies who want to do the same for corporate desktops and laptops. At the current rate, the frog's going to die of old age before it notices anything.

Mozilla in the early days demoed a shiny proof of concept of how good the user experience could be with native support in the browser. [1] They never shipped this, so there was no carrot for websites to implement BrowserID/Persona, and websites struggled with the bad UX of the fallback. I don't know why they seem surprised that websites didn't take the plunge before Firefox did.

Because it gives lawyers a stronger incentive to escalate conflicts, instead of deescalating them, which is not in the interest of society. Lawyering up is a zero-sum game, so the economy is better off if the money in question stays in a productive sector.

Take a divorce, for example. Do you prefer lawyers to have an incentive to say "calm down, I'll talk to the other lawyer, and we will find a fair deal" or "give me 20% and I'll make that bitch suffer"?

Note that a poor client who cannot pay upfront can still agree to pay after they win, just not a percentage of the awarded sum.
Brought back memories of Phil Karn (AKA KA9Q) discussing this very patent fifteen years ago:

As long as you don't have many sites of content that you want to get indexed by google, it may handle it. In case you have, prepare yourself for going to buy many CPU cores to have `spiderable` working, it spins up expensive phantomJS processes to render the heavy client-side lifting to bare HTML, and is fairly brittle (having HTTP status codes alone means jumping through hoops). Oh, and meteor wants quite some RAM.., the server actually mirrors every bit of data that any client has in it's browser for every user. And too much data updates on often-needed resources can bring everything to a halt.
> ...I'm a little envious on anyone who has a talent for drawing.

Among the artists I know, some have taught drawing at art schools. They've all said drawing and art talent are altogether separate matters. Drawing is about reproducing measurements, a skill anyone able to hold a pencil can learn. Geometry class might be a good start.

> ... the ones whojust practiced a lot. have a talent for this are the likes of Picasso ... Everyone else ... just practiced a lot.

Actually even the geniuses had to practice. For example, Van Gogh started painting when he was ~23, and the first couple of years he was quite bad at drawing. With practice he improved, and went on to produce 900 paintings in his short lifetime. Manet, the first French impressionist, was so bad starting off he had to cut out the good portions of paintings and sell those separately.

Your a. and b. programmers aren't really distinct, many of the geniuses of the field speak about dismal "failures" from which they learned. It probably requires genius to see the truly important mistakes and how to do things better.

The problem with your argument is that you can rationalise anything that way - "that's just the way it is". Which is why I asked what you would consider spooky.

IPFS is just piece of the puzzle. Filecoin, Bitcoin like technology (but about files instead) is meant to combat this issue. Similar to how you pay Dropbox or AWS to host your files, you'll have IPFS hosts that you'll pay to rehost your content. Or, you'll have your own public daemon that you can "pin" your own content. In the end, people are not willing to give out disk space for free, therefore Filecoin will exist.
