I used HK specifically because I have a friend (one of my my Fiance's best friends from highschool) that moved there a few years ago to marry a HK native. She lives there and works in the family store now. She's noted more than once (but not often) that she's somewhat lonely there, even though there are some people that live in the same building that are Americans, as she feels somewhat disconnected from them (although it sounded like this may have had something to do with them being wives that didn't work). She mentioned that in the store, her humor often falls flat with the other employees, so there is some cultural disconnect there.

She is Chinese, speaks the language fluently, and I believe she was born in HK, but she was raised in Northern California, and identifies completely as an American. It's entirely possible this confluence of attributes may cause more problems for her than if she was obviously Caucasian and living in HK.

For what it's worth I got pretty decent conversion results of one file at a time with the Ubuntu repository version (0.9.9)
But that version doesn't work with collecting it into a single output file, no.

I think it was a mistake to try shaving off a couple of lines and a step at the price of a more convoluted install and a brittle process.
Most people would probably be best off just converting one HTML file at a time to pdf (e.g. pdfkit.from_file(filename_in_html,filename_in_html[:-4]+".pdf") in some sort of iteration over the file names) and then concatenating the resulting PDF:s, for instance from command line by

Sorry if I contributed to wasting your time.
From the issue referenced it seems like this is only done when the regions needed for routing are not already downloaded to the device. They do admit that the source/destination is sent to the server rather than just the regions, that might have been a reasonable balance. I was able to create a route from my current location to a new location, one I have never search for before going into airplane mode, across multiple regions already on my device.

The app statistics and ad delivery can be easily turned off.

OsmAnd looks pretty nice too.
Some things are just more convenient/efficient to do in C. As an example the mark handling[1] used to represent cursors/selection relies on pointer arithmetic.

Other things like the syntax highlighting are implemented in Lua which is high level but still has low resource usage.

And yes part of the choice is also philosophical. I consider an editor a core system tool which should have minimal dependencies.

Given the L's more modern signaling system, they should be able to squeeze more trains on the tracks than they do during the peak rush hour times. I wonder whether they rely on some kind of data that is lagged by a long time period to make those kind of decisions. I'd challenge anyone who contributes to those decisions to ride to Manhattan at 9am and from Manhattan at 6pm for a few weeks.
I'm not sure TPB is what they're thinking about. I think it's closing the loophole where EU sites could host all their infringing content under another jurisdiction which doesn't care about copyright, and then just linking to it.
When you process your own food, you have full control over it and what goes into it.

I have no idea what they are putting into commercially processed foods, how long they are cooked for at what temperature. (Well I have an idea of what goes into chicken nuggets having watched Jamie Oliver https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKSoiDtdi9s).
Do you know of any books that don't have the problems you speak of?
You probably were taught how to use most of those by your parents, either directly or by observing. I find it hard to believe that any time you're dealing with a new class of appliances for the first time, you don't even peek at the manual or some tutorials.

I say class, because most tosters work the same, most microwaves work the same, most smartphones work the same and most 3D modelling programs work the same too. But you have to get that first little bit of knowledge about the class of tools from somewhere, even if from your own experimentation. Humans aren't born with knowledge how to use technology.

not compared to a high carb/sugar based diet as we can plainly see in everyday life.

Re: 20820038 - Keto is low carb, moderate protein. it doesn't really matter where you get the protein from.

Re: 22850371 - Again, Ketogenic is not HIGH protein diet as eating too much protein is just turned into sugar which defeats the whole purpose of eating keto... so yes, if you eat a lot of fat, and a lot of sugar, you will die sooner.

re: Cell.com - it measured whether or not these people went into ketosis for 6 whole days, when it takes upwards of 3 months to become keto-adapted. It takes the average person (not the morbidly obese person) 3-5 days just to get into ketosis, let alone keto-adapted.
I still use Acme, a plan9 text editor that was based on Oberon and it is the best software ever. Just the notion that "all text is a potential action" blows all other usability notions out of the water.

Want a drop down menu ? : make a file in the current directory with the name of the menu, put the commands in it you want in the menu. Done. And that can go as deep as you like.

Those commands can include snippets of shell code that act on the current document e.g. | sed s/[a-z][A-Z]/g

Highlight some text, middle click that command and the command runs on the selected text.

Add to that a file system for the text editor :

date > /n/acme/new

execute that and you get a new document containing the date

When using it, it feels limitless. You build a command set that matches your current project. There's a pattern matcher too: the plumber, so you can click somefile.c:74 and the editor opens that file at that line. so "grep -n someregex ???.c" and you get a list of clickable "links" to those files.

When you browse the plan9 source code you might see the unusual

void
main(args)

we follow that convention so one can 'grep -n ^functionname ???.c' and you get a source code browser

I'll stop there, and I've only scratched the surface

??? means * - you can't type * . c without spaces in HN !

>Leave your work laptop at your desk. Get a second laptop, tablet, etc that doesn't have work stuff on it if you're going to use electronic stuff around the family outside work hours.

Even if you don't work from home, keep work devices and personal devices separate. The closest I'll mix the two is logging into a public facing email portal if one is available. Want me to have official stuff on my smart phone? Then I need to be provided with one. Want me to take work home with me? Then I need a laptop.

I do not mix company and personal devices to reduce liability to myself and reduce risk to the company (I do my best to avoid getting viruses, but it would be hubris to think I'm immune to such).
This is why you should think really, really hard about taking friends and family money. You might be able to handle the mental complexities of it, but I realized I couldn't.

Personally, I would question the workplace environment and organizational structure that causes people to feel like they can't/shouldn't do something when they find a problem. But it is admittedly much easier to have the CEO come up with a snappy catchphrase to put the blame and responsibility of this situation back upon workers.

We don't have problems because there are issues management is failing to address. We have problems because you aren't doing enough.

dpflan, I am a bit confused about the price as well, the exact cost of owning one of these seems to something that is still under development. Im sure this is something that will fluctuate between cities and demand.

From reading a couple articles on this the only consistent thing I've heard is that they are shooting for a price that is well below $1,600.
I think the L fills a unique enough niche in the subway network that making it run even more will just lead to induced demand. There really ought to be another line between Brooklyn and Manhattan that services parts of the L's route.
Even if it was, the NT kernel wouldn't be affected, that's my point; only the translation layer would be.
Yes; but I don't want to work remotely. I want to work in an office with colleagues. I just don't want to have to commute to the center of a large city to do it.

My father was a school board administrator. He was able to make good money, work in an office with colleagues, and still had the ability to live in practically every town in the US. School boards are everywhere. Tech companies are only in the largest cities.

It's really frustrating.

Kinda cool but the UX really needs some re-thinking.

Simple things like dialogs getting stacked on top of each other, using `prompt("...")` sometimes and modals other times, foreign key relationship arrows not indicating cardinality, etc --

> But following Thiel's rule isn't actually all that hard.

> The key is to look at the total addressible market for a company or product. It has to be large, or growing quickly, or both. For example, AirBnB might have looked like a bad idea, but the hospitality market is huge, so if it did work out then they could grow to become a giant company.

Again, this just feels like post-hoc rationalization. The guy who wrote this blog post declined to invest in AirBnB despite Paul Graham himself practically begging him to. So maybe it actually is hard?

I was too young and too distracted by the world of being young to focus on it enough back then to truly sit down and do that. By the time I got my Modula 2 compiler I was 13 or 14 years old and then high school happened and about 3 or 4 years later I had a PC running (pre 1.0) Linux, so. I never had to truly deal with it.

I just want to say, as someone who currently works remotely, the points about travel don't apply to everyone.

Not saying it isn't effective, just only that it doesn't work in some cases. It's a fallacy to say it's simply calories in vs out. As I said in my post, I lost weight but then I stopped losing weight and still haven't lost a large amount of weight using that method.

Interesting! I've long wanted more sensor/hardware feature availability in the emulator, so this is a good start.

What a bummer, I've usually thought of Mashable as just a quick-hit blog site but had been noticing longer pieces in the wild. Of all the specialty blogs, Mashable IMO had one of the best ideas. Social media will long be one of the biggest businesses in tech and requires its own specialized comprehensive coverage. From what I could tell, though, Mashable never got technical enough in its coverage...Moz made a name for itself and then a SaaS business through SEO, and social media is at least as big if not bigger than SEO these days, particularly in the mainstream mindset. Given Mashable's lead in covering social media, there was an opportunity to do SaaS and consulting...the amount that government agencies pay for shit social media consultants and software could easily fund a business where Mashable's news coverage is its loss-leader.

Edit: Apparently the head of the video team was let go just as she was about to start a shoot and was left stranded in Ohio because her company email was cut off. This is the harshest "I'm sorry to say I've been let go but I've had a great time working with my @COMPANY collagues"

I think the problem with taking the moderate-risk-for-moderate-reward strategy, as an early stage investor, is that a large number of your investments are going to fail anyway. And the returns of a company are not linearly correlated with its apparent risk at the early stage: a company might appear 2x as risky, but end up with 200x the returns if it succeeds. Early-stage investors that try to invest further down the risk/reward curve may find that the decreased risk doesn't end up making up for the decreased rewards, and so the fund as a whole becomes unprofitable.

Larry Page was fond of saying that it's actually easier to work on big problems than on little problems, because a.) there's less competition and b.) you can get people to help you. I'm not sure that's actually true anymore - now that everyone wants to be Google - but it's illustrative of the non-linearity of returns.
I like this, it's well done. Incidentally, it's very similar to how ASOS started (As Seen On Screen). I remember being able to pick outfits similar to those in films (Fight Club, for instance).
Y'know I really miss designing relational schemas. As much as I hate SQL the language I love the relational model that it is a (butchered and ugly and compromised) implementation of. But working where I do on the systems I do now this is something I never have to deal with anymore.

There's something very therapeutic about organizing data using a system of rules, and the relational data model is a powerful one.
Thanks. Merged.

You could use RISC-V in those POWER8 applications with a suitable implementation. I don't think it would be POWER and probably be only a fraction of it. Just so much careful optimization and design in POWER at ISA and implementation level for number crunching. Yet, an Octeon III-like implementation of RISC-V esp w/ accelerators for SIMD/MIMD or onboard GPU could kill a lot of Intel and POWER processors in performance while getting us close to top contenders.
OMG.

While this format is more generic, an abbreviated encoding can sometimes accomplish the same thing. For example, just moving the "type" to be the object key and removing the implied secondary name gets you this far:

{ "mrow": [
{ "mi": "x" },
{ "mo": "=" },
{ "mfrac": [
{ "mrow": [
{ "mo": "-" },
{ "mi": "b" },
{ "mo": "±" },
{ "sqrt": {
{ "mrow": [
{"mi": "b"},
{"msup": { "mi": 2 }},
{"mo": "-"},
{"mi", "4ac"}
]}
}}
},
{ "mrow": [
{"mi": "2a"}
]}
]}
}

It's not as general, but works if you know your syntax is similarly bounded. I don't know how certain static languages would handle serial/deserializing, but makes construction via javascript literals much more pleasant.

POWER has been overpriced for too long. From my past looks at catalogs, paying $3,700 today would be a steal to get a high-performance, POWER workstation. Not necessarily competitive price/performance with Intel but certainly with older RISC workstations.
Morbidly, I think a big earthquake will be the turning point for housing in the Bay Area. After a 6.5+, just about all the brick buildings will be degraded to the point of no return. We might see plenty of new steel / wood construction with the rebuilt (or 3d-printed) facades of old buildings, with new heights and efficiencies inside (better lighting, accessability, modularity).

As others have answered, it doesn't help fix this problem in any way. I'm assuming the team doing this investigation wasn't willing to rewrite `__inet_lookup_listener`. I guess the quick fix became the concern at that point. (Compared to rewriting kernel modules.)

But yes, it seems like an unnecessary change.

Thanks, but I try to limit my consumption of books written by CIA personnel to one or two a year. Let's stipulate that the Ayatollahs are just as bad as the Shah eventually was. By any objective measure, however, both of those are worse for the Iranian populace and for USA interests than Mosaddegh ever was. If "Mosaddegh's use of emergency powers" is at all relevant to the discussion, then your premise must be that USA should act as a sort of "World Police", responding to every imperfectly-capitalistic action of elected leaders anywhere. I reject that premise, and I find that history rejects it more as time goes on.

I wasn't the one who initially asked why USA traditionally favors Saudi over the Ayatollahs, but frankly your response to that query is an exercise in question-begging. They wouldn't chant "death to America" if that chant weren't rhetorically useful. It wouldn't be rhetorically useful if USA hadn't intervened to remove an elected Prime Minister.

Biggest issue for me is public transit. If BART was more reliable/faster, it would be easy for people to live in Berkeley, Oakland, San Leandro or anywhere along the line. I actually bought a house in Richmond because it was cheap and I could BART into the city. What was once a 30 minute ride usually takes a little over 40 now. We really need to fix transit in the bay area. More ferries would be great imo.
