While Sleep Dealer had a bigger budget than Primer's $7000 (I still loved primer), as you can see in the trailer/etc they were obviously limited in the CG they could afford. I think they work around that limitation quite well.

A mostly-spoiler-free example might be the "simstim social media" service: by looks it's pretty cheesy, but in concept it's a perfect caricature of modern monetized youtube. (from 2008, well before the modern "youtuber" phenomena).

Some people may not like that it's in Spanish (subtitled).

As a long-time fan of everything "cyberpunk", I stand by my claim that Sleep Dealer is the best cyberpunk film ever made - even if the filmmakers were dreaming somewhat larger than their budget.

If I could find another OS that give me the same ability to do stuff that OS X does, and it was more open and developer/me friendly, I would switch in a heartbeat.

Things that my Mac + OS X gives me, that other I have not found anywhere is includes 10+ hour battery with excellent power-tooling, excellent hardware design that is robust, nice looking and feeling, a desktop environment that works for the most part and lets me work on my software without getting in the way, while still being top notch when it comes to quality of bundled software, graphics and such.
Two things to know about this:

BDI goes up when bulk shipping capacity is tight. That's interesting, but the reason BDI was an obscure index until the 2008 crisis is that it isn't a good indicator of the health of the world economy.

Except for that one time: The BDI crashed super-hard because nobody could get a letter of credit. It was the canary in the coal mine for the subsequent general seizing-up of credit due to the derivatives-driven crash.

The title kind of misled me. It's about how scientists with a degree in _biotechnology_ (or a related field) can move from academia to the startup world, not about scientists in general.

For many academic fields there's no equivalent startup tech sector (which is the actual problem for scientists here) since the most important aspect seems to be the ability to become a horse with a horn. This means that before all else, there needs to be a huge potential market.

As a scientist working on a very specific topic, I can assure you that my market would be approximately five companies in the whole world. Although every computer and smartphone user could ultimately benefit from advances in my field of research, my customer would not be the end user, but the manufacturers.

I assume that this applies to the vast majority of scientists so the picture actually looks quite grim if you want to keep working in your profession. Many scientists need to change to an unrelated or remotely related field in order to get out of academia.

Linux has a lot of the pathology that comes with monopoly. Low innovation, features almost entirely copied from other OSes (often poorly and very late). Also my brief experience with a kernel patch for Linux felt very abrasive, defensive, and I didn't make any progress (though part of the issue was fixed in a roundabout way a few months later).

If you use freebsd/openbsd/dragonflybsd you are supporting a more innovative group of people, and will have a much more pleasant experience if you need something fixed in the kernel (I had an issue with the freebsd kernel as well, and they acknowledged and fixed it).

I agree that it is valid for regulated intermediaries to participate. The notion of someone else holding your bitcoins, however, is anathema to the entire PKI behind the protocol. Someone else has your private keys, they own your coins, period. If they happen to give you access, good for you - but don't count on that access always being there, and not going away for good because reasons.

There are other services that offer m-of-n signatures so that you retain control of your keys and a service provider can still facilitate transactions. Coinbase may even offer one of these services, I don't know. But the primary service that they offer is that of a bank - a non-transparent bank that may or may not have any quantity of bitcoin at any given time. Part of bitcoin's original stated intent was to circumvent this power of banks, particularly the power to run at a fractional reserve and pull "bitcoins" out of thin air, which works fine until it doesn't. And that is exactly what Coinbase and AFAIK most of the other providers in the bitcoin sphere are doing, with many famous scams, crashes, and losses along the way.

The only reason there are so many refugees is because we stuck our noses into a Syrian civil war and effectively created the space for ISIS to exist. And we're still bombing Syria even now.

Democrats: "Compassion above bigotry. These people people are just trying to escape the civil war and continuous fighting a bombings."

Sane people: "So then why the fuck are we bombing Syria?"

Sorry if I'm too harsh, but saying that ZoL is "rock solid" and "production ready" sounds like a joke to my ears.

ZFS is an extremely complex filesystem, and it took Sun _years_ of internal testing first, and hundreds of angry customers later (sadly, at some point, the only way to improve a product is through real world testing), to reach a milestone where it was really production ready.

I know that on these days of dockers and unicorns, "production ready" has very different meaning than years ago, but still...

I am using Windows 10 on a surface book. There are some minor glitches in a 1st gen product I admit wholeheartedly. Most are fixed for me. I had a defective unit off lot 0 but the replacement and recent driver updates have fixed everything but the "sometimes my mouse goes away" and "sometimes my screen pauses as the driver freaks out". Both are minor and correctible annoyances that are well known.

The Surface book gives me 7-8 hours of battery life doing Clojure development with deploy cycles with casual use, with audio streaming and bluetooth headphones. This eclipses my i7 OSX boxes, current gen, that typically conk out around 5 hours in the same config. The SB has a funny behavior though, it does connected standby like a tablet. It'll hibernate, but the default is after 2 hours of standby. So you need to know that a bit of your battery life is being used there.

I highly recommend the surface book, unless you're an iOS developer. Otherwise, your tools are universal. What I need is there: Docker support is handled via identical (or superior) mechanisms to what we do on OSX; X11 apps are supported about as well; you can get access to the tools you need but PowerShell is actually very whiz-bang and advanced once you see it for what it is; the security model is better than OSX; and honestly I like Win10 better than OSX, which feels incredibly dated by comparison.

To add a datapoint:

I used to live in a very nice neighborhood in Minneapolis, MN with my GF and a child. House was just under 1,000 sq ft with unfinished basement and attic (not included in the sq footage). We loved it there. Great neighborhood: I could walk to the grocery store, or bus and restaurants etc. It was within walking distance of Lake Harriet (beautiful lake/park with free music performances, etc) and close to many other lakes and parks. We were outside a lot.

But we moved to a 2X larger house in the suburbs on a half-acre lot behind a nature preserve. Why?

Pretty much the only reason was that our son was going to be old enough to start kindergarten soon and the local schools sucked.

Private school was an option, but we soon figured out that it was cheaper to move to a bigger house in the suburbs in a better school district than to keep living in the city and pay for private schools.

This is a common reason for parents to move out of very liveable cities. It's often much cheaper to move to the suburbs than pay for private schools, especially if you have 2 or 3 children. And with more and more businesses moving from city to suburban locations, it may even make your commute shorter (it did for both of us).

tl;dr: Improve public schools in cities and more parents will stay.
Hah!

It's refreshing to see a large company that realizes that getting in front of an issue before it's an issue will keep you in better standing with customers, press, shareholders and general public than trying to hide your mistakes in the hope that people will never find out.

No, nobody at my school was doing this[1]. Top-tier schools leverage their massive endowments to provide substantial need-based financial aid. Basically their mission is to ensure, if you get in, that there is absolutely no financial friction to attend. In one high-profile instance Princeton University provided a full scholarship entirely from its own endowment to a formerly homeless undocumented immigrant who went on to become his class's salutatorian[2].

Based on that information it would seem the only illegal transactions there could be (that coinbase could detect) would be transactions over a certain amount (illegal, where?) or transactions with banned destinations (I believe HSBC used to [alledgedly they don't, now?] process transactions for Iran, as well as other banned destinations.).

> "In our academic lab, if we knew how to be faster, more rigorous, or both, we'd be doing it."

There are some cases where it's obvious how to be faster (and occasionally more rigorous): judiciously throw money at the problem. In academia, where grant funding is pretty limited and equipment is expensive, you probably want to only have enough infrastructure for, say, the 50th-90th percentile of load (microscopes, thermocyclers, analysis compute power, what have you), and accept that 10-50% of the time there will be a queue. If the difference between being successful in the market and having your lunch eaten by someone else truly is a matter of weeks, then it makes sense to you and your investors to put some extra money into a widget that will sit idle for most of the time but that helps when things are crunched.

That said, money can't fix everything---9 women can't produce a baby in one month!
