There's also VPaint, an open source animation program (currently in beta) for Windows and Mac.

The description on their site: "VPaint is an experimental vector graphics editor based on the Vector Animation Complex (VAC), a technology developed by a collaboration of researchers at Inria and the University of British Columbia, featured at SIGGRAPH 2015. It allows you to create resolution-independent illustrations and animations using innovative techniques."

That would work if you have excellent breath-holding ability. But since you're exerting yourself by carrying an ~150-lb body, there is a risk you'll pass out because you're holding your breath. So you probably should take multiple trips, repeatedly moving the person partially and then returning to get good air. You should _slowly_ exhale all the while.

DO NOT hyperventilate before holding your breath and exerting yourself! Reason is, if you hyperventilate, then take a big breath, hold it and exert yourself you are likely to pass out _instantly_ w/o warning! [This was something we learned as kids - do not do this! You _will_ pass out (and you also risk embolism/stroke).

If we're talking tech, then your post couldn't be more wrong given my BeOS and QNX examples. Performance was equal to or better than monoliths of the time. BeOS especially destroyed competition in concurrency performance due to its architecture. QNX runs at hardware speed basically with real-time properties and POSIX support. BeOS disappeared due to Microsoft monopoly with Haiku making a OSS clone. QNX was at $40 million a year in revenue when Blackberry bought it. Green Hills and VxWorks are doing OK, too, with VxWorks making more than QNX per quarter. Both have desktops virtualizing Windows, Linux, etc on microkernels w/ Gbps throughput.

I don't see why we keep getting these theoretical counters given the proven results of microkernel performance in the field. Tell me why microkernels are too slow when they can only do this on 90's era hardware:

Then, tell us why we should sacrifice isolation of malice and faults in favor of kernel-mode code with properties like this:

Our side produced highly reliable and secure systems plus high-performance systems. It was always done with a small group with little time. The monoliths took a decade and thousands of man hours to do the same. It's up to you people to justify why those hours were well-spent.

You already basically have them. The pilot mostly just gets involved in emergencies at this point.

Hallo,
also kind of BMW fan here; driving 12 year old E39.

It's one of the main selling points of BMW that everything is designed and engineered towards the driver - from the controls to the essence of the driving experience. It's something which is inherited in every successive model.

I can afford buying any of the new models, but rationally can't see what I'll get additionally, besides the ego boost and the quickly fading dopamine kick.

Maybe more efficiency and reliability?

Part of what pleases me is that you get the same level of comfort and experience for so little.

I don't think many people want to read this deep into a tangent thread, so I'm going to keep my response very terse.

2. No. See FAQ.

3. No. See FAQ.

4. They can't do that if the certificate they're after is pinned. All they'll accomplish is getting the CA killed.

> testing would be done at the browser plugin level to filter out any scripts and ads which don't meet the standard

I think you are describing pretty much any ad block plugin. If you serve ads from your own domain with an img tag, they don't be blocked. It's just that very few people do that.
Do you read every sites' TOS first to make sure they don't outlaw ad-blocking? If they do, it may be illegal under the CFAA, although there seems to to be conflicting precedents (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Drew says TOS aren't CFAA, but the law that tried to make it explicit failed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Fraud_and_Abuse_Act#A... In any event, it would be breach of contract.)

IANAL so I can't answer your question. But I think we can posit a world in which advertisers have garnered enough political clout to enact anti-ad blocking laws and that would shift the conversation.

At that point it still wouldn't be equivalent to pirating, IMO, but rather more like using DeCSS to circumvent DVD scrambling.

To make my point clear, here is a question. What is wrong with the following function that counts the number of unique strings in a list of strings?

function count_unique_strings(l)
{
var m = {};

l.forEach(function(s)
{
m[s] = true;
});

var count = 0;
for(var k in m) ++count;

return count;
}

To see why this function is incorrect, run it with the following input:

console.log(count_unique_strings(["alpha", "bravo", "bravo", "charlie"]));
console.log(count_unique_strings(["alpha", "bravo", "bravo", "__proto__"]));
I can't help but wonder if it's due to the US using the bank system vs. Europe using the post giro system.

Rather, that's one of the biggest differences I can think of between those two regions, with respect to personal finance.

IANAL so I don't know whether I am required to read or obey a site's TOS, or which parts of a TOS are legally binding or not. My intuition is that they cannot restrict me from blocking ads with their TOS, but again IANAL so it's possible I'm wrong here.

I can second this - straight to the point book written by someone who had already amassed his wealth.

Also worth mentioning is "The Millionaire Fastlane" - the title is sleazy, but it had big impact on my mindset when I've read it.
Well, the first theory is by Keynes, it's on his book.

It's been revised and remodeled several hundreds of times, if you want to search Google Schoolar or something like that, look for "demand side" theories, or crisis of "aggregated demand". Also, if you search for NGDP, the biggest share of the papers will be about this.

There are many other terms that will lead to less results. It's a really widespread concept.
I always wonder how GIS databases deal with that (since often they have the notion that buildings of this size "never" move). And I'm not only impressed with the engineering feat, but how the public and the owner worked together on a solution with both were ok with. In the US it would have sat in litigation for 15 years while no railroad work was done, and eventually the building would just be torn down even though the rail project had long since been abandoned. (ok maybe that is too cynical)

I buy a lot on Amazon and I had a very odd experience the other day for the first time. I ordered a board game expansion and when I received it there was a sticker from Amazon Warehouse deals on it. I certainly didn't order that and the item was slightly damaged so I replaced it with a new item instead. But it was the first time they ever sent a AWD item instead of a new item.

The test command has certain rules depending on the number of arguments.
The most pertinent rule is:
For one argument, the expression is true if, and only if, the argument is not null.

In this case

[ -n $var ]

is the same as

test -n $var

$var is not quoted, so when this command is run, word splitting occurs and therefore $var is null. Which there falls into the one argument rule above.

Therefore, always quote your variables.

To me, a lot of the issues we are facing seem to be scaling the governmental framework out to far while simultaneously creating a society that promotes individualism.

Consider:

> Christians, Muslims, Athiests, Mormons, Jews, etc are bound by internal and external doctrine and have(or choose) limited latitude to alter their beliefs.

> The political spectrum is more represented now than ever. This stratification can be seen just looking at the hard core tea party conservatives driving last election, to the "social justice" movement and a candidate viably running as a socialist. We are so far apart as a country.

> Rich poor gap & critically, the perception of one.

> how to handle guns

> how to handle the economy

> racism

> law & governance from jusges to police.

Etc

this is something that could be mitigated by states rights and a strong union of states that willingly band together for mutual benefit.

Obviously the world is facing outsize problems as we scale out our societies. We can probably all get a long better if we allowed abortion to be illegal in some states with planned parenthood providing transportation for those in need of it. Its called compromising. It will be difficult for people to move with little money, but that seems a better alternative than simply having one size fits all.

I'm not saying you should let him drive home drunk. I'm saying that he shouldn't be allowed to come to work drunk!

By having an intern help him around, by driving him home, then you are facilitating his drinking. You're basically saying "It's ok to come to work drunk, we'll support you if you do".

What I'm saying is that if this is a regular occurrence, you should put your foot down and say "No, don't come to work drunk, it's not OK". If he ends up in the curb because he favours his drinking over his work / life then that's his choice.

I'm not saying fire his ass, I'm saying have a chat to him. A good manager will know how to do this. It's not a "You need help" talk, but it's a "We've noticed this behaviour, what's going on?" talk.

If you don't have this talk, and continue to drive him home then you are facilitating his drinking, you're basically saying it's OK.
I couldn't find it. Give me a direct foxnews.com link that claims that.
interesting alternative if you have a decent python version! However I need to say that Python+request lib has historically bugs (which are resolved in newer python 2.7.9+ versions). For example I had problems with SSL SNI certificates with older python versions and CURL and WGET don't have this problems on older Linux distributions. Last year I also had a lot of headache because of this in Ansible (Python + request lib based): https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/issues/1716#...
So I bet more on curl than python+request lib

No surprise that security updates are the center of this conversation. Software patching is a source of vulnerabilities turned off (exploitation from fixed bugs) and turned on (update provider can be malicious).

When heartbleed broke that was evidence that the 'many eyes' theory of secure open source software hadn't worked. Alternatively, the bug was found because big corporations with security budgets were getting serious about holes, so maybe 'many eyes' is starting to be true. Certainly apple's 'goto fail' and RSA's key strength bribery are examples of 'not enough eyes' for closed software.

Among the interesting things about Ethereum is that they built a billion-dollar "company" in a totally nontraditional way. Instead of VC, they raised money in a presale, the developers have liquidity from the beginning, and none of it required permission from anyone. Just people buying into the concept. Seems clear that this sort of thing being possible stands to change things for regulators, investors, and other market participants.

>Moe asked older brother Shemp to take Curly's place, but Shemp was hesitant to rejoin the Stooges as he was enjoying a successful solo career. He realized, however, that not rejoining the Stooges would mean the end of Moe's and Larry's film careers. Shemp wanted assurance that rejoining them would be only temporary, and that he could leave the Stooges once Curly recovered. However, Curly's health continued to deteriorate, and it became clear that he couldn't return. The Stooges turned to comedian Buddy Hackett as a replacement, but Hackett declined, and Shemp remained a Stooge. Curly remained ill until his death of a cerebral hemorrhage from additional strokes on January 18, 1952.

That's unrealistic as it implies we actually have rail projects in the US.
In my experience it was the other way around. I signed up with gitlab only because they offer free private repos. Now since I already have an account with them and I don't have to go through the hassle of setting up stuff again, I'm only a couple clicks away from putting some project in the open.

The excellence of Diablo lies in the atmosphere of the game. I think it is one of the best games in terms of the overall atmosphere and that general feel of play. All the pieces work perfectly together to deliver this unique sensation while playing the game.

Especially the music. Matt Ulemen has created a masterpiece soundtrack!

PS. It is very funny that reading this pitch document I haven't noticed any of that ephemeral things that build this unique atmosphere. Funny how such pitches are evaluated only on the sole raw description the gameplay and nothing else...
