Exactly, the correct solution is to utilize a transactional mail system for in-application sending that's not tied to your physical mail servers used for personal/business email. Amazon SES, MailGun, SendGrid, etc are all excellent tools to use if you do not wish to run/maintain your own system.

I would argue that the trailing comma diff issue is an artefact of the fact that diff works at the text level, not at the syntax level (I can only hope this might be a thing someday)
Do you have evidence that your target customers are willing to go for a pay-as-you-go model? My personal experience with companies in the design and engineering space is that they hate non-fixed costs for tools and are generally willing to shell out larger sums of money up-front to "own" a tool (or contracted tier of use) outright rather than worrying about how much it will cost them over time as they create more designs/simulations.
I agree. Language features such as async/await (ES7) are exciting.

She's on the Senate intelligence committee. She's the NSA's mouthpiece, but also kinda their boss. And the NSA in turn is Silicon Valley's boss. Until recently this was a one way exchange. With Eric Schmidt working with the Pentagon, online marketing and big data becoming integral to elections, and SV becoming some of the largest lobbying blocks her position is more secure than it has ever been.

She's an incredibly politically savvy whore who will say anything she's told. And she's about to be an even richer whore.
When I was a child there was a government program to take bio samples (blood and finger prints) from children in case of abduction. This was in the early 80s. So I would wager that this has been going on for a great long while.
>I'm referring to the analogy to "photocopying snail-mail letters."

The analogy is that anybody who intercepts and stores encrypted communication data, has a kind of Schrodinger's Cat photo-copied letter.

If at some later date they acquire the encryption key, then they have a photo-copied letter never intended for them.

If they don't acquire the key, they don't have a letter.

(Or perhaps they still do 'have a letter' they just can't read it, that's kind of a metaphysical question)

I'd be interested in finding out how many people do this with the front facing camera on their phone. It seems to be a much lower percentage than those who do it with their laptop webcam (from what I've observed at least).
I've visited France (Paris mostly) in the off season and found it a great experience. In general people were as friendly or helpful as any other large city I've been in.

I can imagine when tourists are clogging up everything people's tempers get short (I know mine do and I live near a major tourist friendly city). Anybody who wasn't overtly friendly was at least reasonably professional and I can't recall any specifically negative interaction with any French person during my stay. Language was sometimes a barrier, but nearly everybody we interacted with was patient and kind with our terrible abuse of our few French words.

I remember one evening trying to find a certain restaurant, my wife stopped a lady out on her evening exercise/walk and asked for directions. This lovely Parisian woman not only offered directions, but made a better restaurant recommendation, walked us the dozen or so blocks over to it and made arrangements with the staff to let us dine there even without proper reservations.

Every place has some bad things as well, things that can be constructively criticized. I'm an American and it's pretty obvious we screw up all kinds of things and those things are worthy of comment or criticism, France is no different in that respect.

France is beautiful, the people are great and I came away very impressed with the country and the people. I also learned a lot and came away with new perspectives on many things I had taken for granted before. French citizens have a tremendous amount to be proud of.

I started down this route forever ago. Had a garage door opener with status and geofence, outlets, my own iOS app. It was fun but it was taking too long. I bought a bunch of z-wave outlets, switches, power strips, a thermostat, and a garage door opener. If my hub dies or the company goes the way of the dodo I can switch to another hub that supports z-wave.

Also, my hub has Echo integration for most things. I can't turn the heat up but I can turn off any light or light grouping.

In the end, everything works much better and I switched to building robots for the kids.

> New users have come on board, but they're mostly students, semipros, small-time boutiques, and YouTube dabblers.

True, but the new users might not be as great in number because the FCP X outrage had another effect. You noted the pros leaving it, but that also included a fair number of schools. FCP X is most definitely not FCP 7 so all the teaching material gets thrown. Also, FCP X is not really a pro app. If the school is going to buy all new books and build new class material why not go with software made by a pro company. They are already teaching other Adobe products so its not much of a jump to add Premiere. Its popular and integrates well.

So, I'm not sure the up and coming student is really going to use FCP X.

Once you switch to Premiere, your dependance on OS X starts to leave and the hardware on the Windows side is a whole lot better. I had a lifelong die-hard Mac user ask me about building a PC.
This could be as simple as directly connecting ESP8266 GPIO to a solid state relay and programming ESP8266 to change the state of the pin in response to a HTTP post, e.g. [1]

Note that you should probably familiarize yourself with basic electrical safety rules when working with mains voltage, as well as fire safety. An intro to digital electronics would probably be a logical next step. Lastly, SSRs have an undesired feature of failing in connected state, so don't connect any loads that could overheat when plugged continuously.

Some things are easier to learn by doing. These exercises (https://mightybyte.github.io/monad-challenges/) are what made it stick for me.
The only time you should avoid trailing commas is if your javascript needs to run on older browsers.

If you use babel, you can write your source with trailing commas, then let the build step remove them for older browsers.
Most people in the groups you mention are not known to be early adopters of anything. SQRL is still early days and is not rolling its own encryption its just a novel implementation of and existing one EdDSA. One notable innovative payment network uses the same encryption standard is Bitcoin and to my knowledge has never been successfully compromised. The reason there are so many different payment systems out there is because they all make money from the first day even the crappy ones which most are.
Sorry for the late reply. Are you referring to this? http://www.oecdbetterlifeindex.org/topics/income/

If so, I wasn't able to find median info on disposable income there for the US, which I think is a very important distinction from average. If not, can you please share another source since I'm very curious to see how it shakes out across the developed world.

Also, I think it's also important to note that my original post was perhaps incomplete referring to disposable income generally. What's more important is growth in disposable income year over year, and related, growth in actual expenditures. For the US, OECD puts disposable income growth at just 0.8% year over year in the US since 2008. A population might have tons of disposable income, but if all of it is already being spent, then that doesn't help companies very much with demand - zero growth equals a zero sum game. Compare the US growth rate with that of China, which is 10x more [1] and also where many big companies have focused their investments in recent years.

The first Apple iSight cameras, back in the days of Firewire, had this nifty mechanical iris that covered the lens. A twist of the bezel ring and it opened, another and it closed.

Granted, just that feature was 6 times the volume of a modern webcam and probably three times the cost, but it did perfectly address people's discomfort with the eye staring at them.

For some reason, the ear listening to them doesn't seem to evoke the same reaction. I don't know anyone that tries to deafen their microphone.
Follow up - I met with Alex (suncho) and he is a rational, reasonable person with a strong passion and belief in his idea. The idea fascinates me, I will be thinking about it for some time, and personally investing when it is released. Alex - I recommend you get a website and white paper out, and a forum to discuss this with like minded people.
The amount of questions I find on StackOverflow that could have been found with a simple Google search makes me think there really is a need to read effective Googling of error messages.
Stop explaining monads. There are two ways to approach them. One is by doing. The other is by math. If you can't understand how "monads are monoids in the category of endofunctors", you should try learning by doing.

Don't try reading about it, don't try reasoning about it. Just do it.

EDIT: okay, I'll explain. Haskell et al. have this really neat propensity to abstract well. That means that very many concepts (Promises, null types, etc.) can actually be abstracted into one concept (the Monad) because they all have the same behavior except for a couple of points. You won't believe me, but that's exactly it.

To explain "what monads are" you must explain everything (or most things) that monads can do. Save yourself the time. Don't read or write such a thing. They're so general and so abstract as to be totally meaningless without understanding what they're built on (either in the PL/doing direction or in the mathematical/conceptual direction).

While "c'est du chinois" is really not a valid excuse these days, with so many chinese people/students available all across Europe, ready (and hungry) to help Western companies deal with China's local systems/language, it should be noted that having Chinese competitors has not prevented Google/Facebook/Amazon from making their billions.

Your answers to this and other comments are very good. You give the impression that you have done a lot of research already. If you haven't already come across Steve Blank's work take a look at "The Four Steps to the Epiphany".

Since it is such a huge potential market, it might be a good idea to work on getting VC funding. The only caveat being, avoid "free" anything. Very hard to convert to paying down the track. You could give early users the option of investing and getting a chunk of discounted juror research for their money as well as equity. Since you are already in contact with lawyers you should be able to find some professional advice, etc.

Ditto, from the Perl side of things. I'm a JS coder for the last few years, and I find I really hate a lot of the style conventions - they seem much more oriented towards "because I said so" than "because it's actually better".

> CoffeeScript has done a good job of this

And that language shouldn't be used by beginners in 2016 due to its uncertain fate in the long run as its creator kind of abandoned the project. Furhtermore ES2015 adds many CS features to the language.

Don't know about LiveScript, but frankly that whole transpilation thing is a mess. People don't use Transpilers for Python or Ruby. They work with the language quirks.
>the celebrations after the death of Osama bin Laden which I think were pretty inappropriate.

Osama Bin Laden doesn't deserve any civil person's remorse. He helped orchestrate the murder of 3000 civilians. Give no pause to people who have absolutely no respect for the civilized world and cannot be reasoned with. The world will not have peace as long as religious extremists exist. Osama Bin Laden's existence would have only brought more senseless violence.
Exactly, microphone provides much more useful information and requires similar permissions. Not many people seem to be unsoldering them.

Regarding webcam, led is OK, but it shouldn't be driven by some firmware, it should be a simple circuit - when there is a voltage on the camera Vdd, the led is on. I don't know how it is with the newest macbooks and if the led is still hackable.
Yes, as long as someone hasn't figured out how to turn it off.
It's not just about cost. AIUI, from browsing /r/spacex, it's about feasibility. Less demanding payloads will have enough fuel to return to launch site, some will have enough to land at sea and some payloads will require the use of an 'expendable' configuration where too much fuel will be used to recover the rocket. Expendable launches are more expensive.
The recent example of bricking is not just "some company". It is Alphabet establishing a precedent.
It's not always a bluff. Depending on the company, it can happen that there are a fixed number of positions, that they need filled as soon as possible. They need an answer from you, or they need to know to move on. It's not unheard of for a company to have multiple candidates who are good enough to hire, and not enough openings, and they don't want to lose one just because their first choice doesn't want to wait. That's not immoral, unethical, a bluff, or unfair, that's just the reality for them; they can't guarantee the offer will be open if you don't get back to them in time.

That said, as a candidate, there is no real cost to pushing back against the exploding offer, i.e., "Well, I am interviewing with X as well, and don't feel it would be fair to make a decision without speaking with them". If the company sticks to their guns, you will have to make a decision, but if it's a bluff, they may back off (and you can make of that what you will).
It got me out of college. I had two offers. Second was a time-bomb with only a few days to decide. It turned out ok, but it was definitely uncomfortable.
