I think that's much the same situation as with programming.

If I were given the postgres docs, I could "master" the syntax pretty quickly. But when I had to write code that actually uses postgres in production, I realized that the docs don't carefully explain 3NF, making 3NF fast and user comprehensible, good practices on writing complex queries, etc.

Is that really a math-specific problem?
While "cash only" could be an indicator of tax evasion, it's also a way to sidestep credit card fees which can chew up a few percent of your profit margin.

If your work is above average then you should not have an issue getting a job from a US company that will arrange all the paperwork for you.

Alternatively you could start by working in an European office, if the company is global and then find a way to relocate in the US.

However, you would be better by working from home and start doing some freelance work until you get to the expert level. Then, you can get a job and work remotely for any company in the world.

Everyone wants talented people. If you are talented it shouldn't be hard to find something good for you. If there is room for improvement do the work and get noticed by others.

Why can't you enjoy something for what it is? As I said, it's possible to enjoy chaos. You don't know what chaos will bring, but you can still enjoy it as it comes along.

Desire is a misused word. It's used as a catch all for all pleasure seeking, but in reality it's a special type of pleasure seeking, a directed form of pleasure seeking based on craving. If you're a pleasure seeker that doesn't have any strong craving for one type of pleasure over another you're still grouped in with those that are addicted to certain types of pleasure.

In other words, if you enjoy life as it comes, you aren't plagued with the problems of craving, therefore the same rules don't apply.
So logically if they phase out the largest note the drug dealers income stream doesn't get any smaller its just moved around in a lot more smaller increment and now you can logically say that some huge percentage of the new largest note is now used by criminals.

At what point do you stop to realize that you aren't doing anything useful to combat crime?
Are you suggesting that Apple would've done this particular hack provided it wouldn't set any precedent? If so that sounds quite sensible to my ears.

All US paper money since at least the civil war (~1865) remains legal tender today.

The banks will stop giving that money out and start sending it back to the gov to be removed from circulation once you turn it in, but there is no date a discontinued note in the USA has to be turned in by.

Definitely, and the banks do have additional checks. The question is whether voice recognition adds significant burden to attackers. Or more likely, whether banks can claim that voice recognition is bulletproof and could never be subverted.

I am instead reminded of the coffee-shop owner in Little Brother, written in 2007:

> I pulled out my debit card to pay and he made a face. "No more debit," he said.

> "Huh? Why not?" I'd paid for my coffee habit on my card for years at the Turk's. He used to hassle me all the time, telling me I was too young to drink the stuff, and he still refused to serve me at all during school hours, convinced that I was skipping class. But over the years, the Turk and me have developed a kind of gruff understanding.

> He shook his head sadly. "You wouldn't understand. Go to school, kid."

> There's no surer way to make me want to understand than to tell me I won't. I wheedled him, demanding that he tell me. He looked like he was going to throw me out, but when I asked him if he thought I wasn't good enough to shop there, he opened up.

> "The security," he said, looking around his little shop with its tubs of dried beans and seeds, its shelves of Turkish groceries. "The government. They monitor it all now, it was in the papers. PATRIOT Act II, the Congress passed it yesterday. Now they can monitor every time you use your card. I say no. I say my shop will not help them spy on my customers."

> My jaw dropped.

> "You think it's no big deal maybe? What is the problem with government knowing when you buy coffee? Because it's one way they know where you are, where you been. Why you think I left Turkey? Where you have government always spying on the people, is no good. I move here twenty years ago for freedom -- I no help them take freedom away."

> "You're going to lose so many sales," I blurted. I wanted to tell him he was a hero and shake his hand, but that was what came out. "Everyone uses debit cards."

> "Maybe not so much anymore. Maybe my customers come here because they know I love freedom too. I am making sign for window. Maybe other stores do the same. I hear the ACLU will sue them for this."

> "You've got all my business from now on," I said. I meant it. I reached into my pocket. "Um, I don't have any cash, though."

> He pursed his lips and nodded. "Many peoples say the same thing. Is OK. You give today's money to the ACLU."

> In two minutes, the Turk and I had exchanged more words than we had in all the time I'd been coming to his shop. I had no idea he had all these passions. I just thought of him as my friendly neighborhood caffeine dealer. Now I shook his hand and when I left his store, I felt like he and I had joined a team. A secret team.
In a lot of countries in the world, medical institutions or individuals don't have enough money to pay for access to research and books (lib-gen, the sister project of sci-hub also serves pirated books). And I agree, that might not be a proof we need civil disobedience in general (with regard to copyright law), but I think it does show that copyright law doesn't work well for medical research. I think similar could be proved for other areas covered by copyright law, but that would be a long discussion.

At least here in Sweden I'm seeing more and more places going "card only", leading me to believe that the cost (and risk) of handling cash must be at least as high as the cost and risk of handling cards.
Closed sets are actually well named - a closed set is a set which is closed under the operation of taking limits.

It's open sets which are badly named. Open sets are used for distinguishing between points - i.e., two points (x,y) are topologically distinct if you can find two disjoint open sets x \in X, y \in Y with X \cap Y == \emptyset. Coming up with a collection of sets which are good for this purpose is totally NOT the opposite of being closed. "Distinguishing sets" might have been a better name.
Depending on the bank the controls vary. For example Natwest require multiple factor to setup the destination bank account the first time you do a transfer and then less authentication on subsequent transfer. Multiple factor because you would need to know my online account number, online pin code, online password be in possession of my bank card, use a Natwest card reader that authenticates me using chip and pin. Yes it's a frustrating way to pay a mate £5 but does make it a lot harder to be attacked.

I somehow have the feeling that the longer the software licenses are the more licensing-related drama is happening.
By that same logic, Apple's source code and software update key could eventually leak, too, which would have even worse effect. The FBI is handing the phone over to Apple to apply the modification, not asking Apple to them the means to do it themselves. If Apple was really worried about this leaking, they could just delete it when they're done (though it would be more work for them to recreate it next time the FBI comes with a warrant to search another iPhone).

"Mary had a ... what did you say it was? Oh, a little lamb. OK, and its fleece was white as snow."

"Please repeat the exact phrase: Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as snow."

"Mandy had a lamb whose fleece was white as snow."

"Please repeat the exact phrase ..."

> One day, one new group will be more focussed on graphics and hire UX designers, and publish a polished, paid version of Linux. As in, you can redistribute, but if you want to subscribe to the repository which contains the latest bugfixes and the awesome UI design upgrades, you'll have to pay - and this is perfectly legal with free software, even GPL. We've only avoided that until now because so many groups have a huge disdain to making money off products (which is an awesome value - but just a value).

That reminds me of what elementary did, with their forced payments.
In a world where there are pressures on foo, bar and baz to be bad, and foo is fighting those pressures and bar and baz are not, it seems to me that foo should be praised for being less bad than bar and baz.

I am only a casual user of Linux and have no axe to grind or sacred cows to protect. From my point of view, one of the biggest issues with Linux is fragmentation - which of the 2000 flavours of Linux do I choose for my home use and why. My perception of Canonical/ Ubuntu as an outsider, is they have come along and tried to make a one-stop shop for Linux for the masses. This is a good thing. If you are an expert you can still use one of the other flavours or even branch Ubuntu. They are not making it impossible to create "yet another Linux flavour" but they are not making it easy. From my point of view this seems to be a plus and not a minus.

I can't comment on China - my guess is their regulations on things other than CO2 (sulfur oxides and nitrous oxides mainly) is probably also more lax than Europe and North America. Scrubbers exist for both of these and are used EU/NA. Yes these are more expensive.

Time scale - hard to say. I would think at $100 oil, coal is very competitive even with scrubbers, capture, and sequestration. At $30, probably not. Oil prices are more determined by politics than industry, but there seems to be a ceiling of $60-70 where a massive supply of non-conventional oil becomes economic.

There has been a commercial carbon capture and storage facility in Canada since 2000, which takes CO2 from plants in North Dakota. There are about 75 projects worldwide using CCS, in various stages of development.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weyburn-Midale_Carbon_Dioxide_...

So for time scale, it is already being done. For wider adoption, probably we are looking at ~10 years, as data is still being collected and these projects are large undertakings. But CCS in particular is one of the few approaches that can actually scale to make a sizable dent in CO2 emissions.
Colonization, as a game, is a lot of fun, has mechanically held up superbly over the last two decades, and is probably my favorite Civ-family game as well, but I have a beef with the way it actually presents itself as a piece of art. Eliding such things as, oh, Europeans enslaved a shit-ton of people and killed a lot of others[1] bothers me as a student of history and as somebody acutely aware of the ongoing consequences, both for Native Americans and African-Americans, that reverberate through American society to this day.

The Rise of Revolution mod for Civ4Col is a little better (it's also just really good in general, aside from being better about its recognition of marginalized people), but...there is a fundamental "ick" to colonizing other people's shit that I don't think this game properly grapples with. Because there's a moral issue to European colonization, and while I can see that being surfaced very well in a hypothetical game (I noodled on one for a while) I don't think either Colonization or Civ4Col even tries. And that's a real shame.

I was recently burned by this. The client had left his server misconfigured for a few hours, and a lot of his static content ended up in a redirect loop. I was called in to fix the mess.

Although modern browsers are clever enough to detect a redirect loop and throw an error, they're not clever enough to detect when the redirect loop is caused by a cached 301 response. So they cache the redirect loop as well. Throw in another layer of caching (CloudFlare), and now you've got a bunch of URLs that will be stuck in a redirect loop for a very long time.

The only solution was to append some garbage to every URL, like "?cache=no". Fortunately, the problem only occurred with static content, so nginx happily discarded the querystring and returned fresh content.
A question for Pascal programmers: have you used Pascal for web development? And would you recommend it for web development? If so, how did you find its speed of execution? By web app development, I mean code that runs server-side and processes forms, or generates pages dynamically.

Web development is dominated by dynamic languages, but surprisingly few compiled languages seem to make headway in this space. The Go programming language looks like it might change that, but other compiled languages remain quite niche.

I know many people baulk at the idea of running an "old" compiled language like C or Pascal, but these languages seem (to me) to remain extremely fast and very light on resource usage. Two qualities that feel a bit out of fashion in todays web programming environment.

Well of course he is going to put in less effort than you, because he only has 1/4 of the shares that you do.

Next time when you permanently give shares upfront (no vesting period) be very sure what you are getting into and even consider formalizing the nature of the relationship and the level of expectation in exchange for those shares in writing (very least in email)

I think the best you can do is have a constructive but frank discusaion with the co-founder.

Asking him if he would be willing to come to arrangement to part ways but reconsider (at least part) of his shareholding since he will no longer be participating and you will need to replace him.

You could also try to get at the bottom of his lack of motivation (though is motivation is missing its not something that you can give to someone else)-

Rather try to figure out of this is a temporary slump, or a long term "new normal".

Also find out if something has changed in his life circumstances making it harder or less ideal to make time for the startup.
