Correct. Former vendor, worked with their cell network crew on many occasions.

To be more fair, all the large carriers are mostly laden with corporate procedures and bureaucracy so it's hard for worker bees to make progress even if they know what's needed. T-Mo's procedures are just more broken.
Bluetooth LE and motion sensors are actually brilliant, but I think we're treating this too much as an individual problem when we can eliminate bike theft in the first place and not worry about installing trackers.

I've always thought about doing stings from the other direction: with bait bikes. For a bait bike, you just need a bike and a GPS tracker with a battery life of a week or so (a poorly-locked bike will be stolen in a matter of days). The GPS tracker is inserted in the seat tube, and if you glue/oxidize the seat in the seat tube, the thief can't remove the seat to check even if they are smart enough to check for a tracker. You can even add security cameras where you set up the bait bike (outside your apartment or home is a great place) to get additional information. The GPS tracker then gives you a location of either where the thief lives or where they store their stolen property, which lets you bust them pretty easily.

Even in a bicycle-friendly town with 100,000 in population (ala Berkeley), I can't imagine that there are more than a few hundred bike thieves. It would take only a dozen individuals doing bait bikes to bring down bike theft drastically. Combine that with "Bike Batman" style vigilantism identifying stolen bikes on the used market, and I think it's possible to reduce bike theft to near zero in a local area.

Ask the consultant to perform (or at least implement) LTV measurement across 3/6-months stage. Price sensitive bank-account-checking users will act as a canary, and at least in the Boston Globe case, I suspect tactics like these to increase churn by at least as much as they increase conversion (implying the business will only see benefit for the next N month after consultant).

As for trust, the US case is simple: report it to BBB.
Right, I worded it badly. The performance of ES6 code is more of an issue for people who want to switch from transpilers to running ES6 natively (something that's hard to recommend at this point). ES5 code performing slower because of ES6 features should indeed not happen and be avoided.
Its using the term "sea floor" as an ingredient, "dry land" as a location. "Put rocks from the sea floor on a plot of dry land". To be fair to the editor, I don't see how "put x on y" could ever lead someone to ask the question "is y being lowered to x?".
It is also something made necessary by the very existence of cities.

For an urban region to be viable, it needs a number of "nonurban" areas, to supply the prime and natural resources you mention, a city is by definition not self-sufficient.

For example, Sicily was known as the "granary of Rome", in ancient times...

While I agree with you I also don't believe in adding things just for the sake of adding features. Remember, once you put a feature in a language it's going to remain in it forever and slowly the language can get bloated with lot of history in it's baggage (not that js already doesn't have this).

It seems like this project is re-discovered on HN every few months.
Your comment made me go into a weird though experiment:
What if non-urban areas could somehow "rebel" and escape from the power control of the government controlling the cities?

Thus creating some sort of "Urban city state islands" rich in human/tech resources surrounded by "Urban land states" rich in natural resources.

Obviously in such utopia these 2 entities could enter into much more balanced relationships of power and dependency from one another than what we have today.

I dare speculate that the reason that this currently cannot happen is that everything about natural resources is financialized and thus beholden to the power of the urban capital. The non-urban exploited by the urban is what we have... (also an imbalance in population from one to the other...) and many other reasons other will surely point out better than me!
Remember 90% of programming is internal tools for businesses, not consumer applications.

(Also in a lot of cases you wouldn't necessarily notice. If you've played a few recent games you've likely run at least one written in C#. I've seen commercial drivers written in Python that you only notice if you look in the internals)

If I may make a suggestion, try exploring social hobbies and friends will come. I did meetups for a while and met some cool programmers. After a while, I didn't want to talk software as much in my free time, but one guy invited me out to go swing dancing.

I now work online remotely in Asia and visit different cities to swing dance. Within 2 two weeks trips, I made some good freshman friends in Shanghai and Hong Kong. We still talk online from time to time about the next time we'll meet up.

I am also looking to temper my expectations, as the article suggests. I tried out a couple other styles of dancing and met freshman friends in those scenes. I remember wanting to fit in so much with each new group, and I still feel it with swing dancing friends sometimes. Over time, opportunities to deepen friendships arise. There's a lot that's out of my control.

If the government did nothing at all in the matter, I believe car companies wouldn't care less about emissions (though perhaps it would result in higher CO2 emissions but lower NOx emissions and perhaps that would have been a net benefit to society - but I'm not sure about that, so I wouldn't make an argument hinging on this being true.) Personally I would not advocate stripping the government of the power to regulate emissions (though I'm not at all sure how to get them to do their job properly), on the theory that with all the unintended consequences of regulation including higher NOx emissions, it's still better than nothing. But I have a feeling that jailing regulators is a promising approach to improving future regulators' performance, and this approach seems underrepresented in public discourse, perhaps because most people prefer to either abolish regulation altogether or to always blame the regulated industry. The main reason I mentioned stripping regulators of their power is that this is the logical conclusion of the assumption that we should expect competent, honest regulators to fail to detect fraud at such a huge scale.
The original business model of coursera/udacity was to offer the option to take most courses for free, but require people to pay for credentials.

This is not obviously a bad idea: the quality of teaching at Harvard or Stanford is probably better than that you obtain in most universities, but the one of the main added values are the network of people you meet, and the credential of having attended a very prestigious university.

However: the kind of person that takes a lot of online courses is probably already an educated professional, and for her, the main added value is the joy of learning new things, and the credentials themselves are near worthless.

I'm sure they have lots of very smart people who thought hard about how to best monetize their offerings, but, for me, I would definitely pay a flat fee per month just to be able to keep sampling every course I want.
If there is a key it must be the willingness to be
persistent, not give up the effort to enrich the
network of connectedness. Here and there people do
respond, and a relationship slowly begins to form.

I think that's 100% right. I've lived in NYC for almost 10 years and the sad reality is that people come/go frequently. I've found persistence to be the only consistent factor in building all the friendships over those years.

Yes you need to click with someone, but we determine that within 5 minutes of talking to a new person. A lot of people make the effort to build a new friendship, but get too discouraged from a lack of reciprocation. 5 no's in a row can definitely signal "not interested" (ha) but a lot of people are interested they just need more of a push.

It does come down to how badly you want to build that new friendship, but I think a lot of people are just not persistent enough at the beginning tbh.

While I am sure Uber has played fast and loose, much of this kind of coverage has felt like a well-executed PR strategy by Lyft.
I don't see how this can be considered predatory though.

It's still an auction. It should sell at the market price.

In theory, they should be able to open their action at $1 and that would be totally fair. If they were selling at $1 that would be a different matter, but the auction structure should guarantee that goods aren't sold at substantially below-market.
Agreed. I had to take a cab from O'Hare to Skokie a few months back (because I can't expense an Uber w/the gov't travel system). Smelled like fresh urine, and the guy had no idea where he was going. I had to direct him with my phone. And he still expected a tip.

This oversimplistic explanation misses the facts, laid out to some extent in Stephen Walli's history which is mentioned elsewhere on this page, that the "proprietary software" comprised GPL-licenced things like GCC and many BSD-licenced things including large portions of the command-line toolset.

Actually reading the licence dialogue displayed by the SFUA/SUA installer was interesting: umpteen different iterations of mostly the same BSD licences, over and over, with the only differences being the copyright declarations.
How to build client trust
This was also my first line of thought.
Then I started reflecting... if cities are so dependent on the non-urban areas that provide all the natural resources, why is there such a disparity of power between the two?

The first thing to come to mind is: natural resources have been comoditized / financialized and are controled by "urban power"

(as I wrote in my other comment under parent)

[update] another obvious thing that should have occurred to me first: all the buyers for all the things the "non-urban" produce are in the urban areas...
A bit off-topic: does anyone know a good resource about when to use neural networks, when genetic algorithms, when bayesian networks,...? I know the basics of some of these algorithms and I could implement them (with some googling), but I wouldn't know which one to choose for a real-world application. Some kind of overview of strength and weaknesses of different AI approaches?

Web Design Process – Ultimate Guide to Designing Websites Pt1
There's some detailed documentation here https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/nativeMessaging and a sample app (for Chromium) here https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/chro...

Essentially you need to add a native messaging app manifest to Chrome to tell it about the app on the host, and then Chrome reads that JSON file to find where to execute it, what to use to talk to it (eg stdio), what it's called, etc. On Windows the location of the JSON file has to be added to the registry (which is prohibitively annoying), but on OSX and Linux it's just saved in a specific folder. Once you've done that it's a simple case of calling a method on the chrome.runtime object, or setting up a couple of listeners to actually make the call.

> If I may make a suggestion, try exploring social hobbies and friends will come. I did meetups for a while and met some cool programmers.

I've tried going to meetups, but it doesn't seem like anyone is interested in being social. Everyone seems to be looking to network or advance professionally somehow.

I never get the vibe that anyone would want to hang out with me. Maybe I'm just not friendly.
Obviously this is true, but I kind of agree with him.

So far I don't use the overwhelming majority of new features and it does sort of seem like JavaScript is in some kind of race with itself to implement every paradigm and idea that anyone latches on to.

There is beauty in simplicity and commonality in code. I don't think there would be anything wrong with taking a more conservative approach to adding new language constructs.

JavaScript needed a class syntax. It needed block-scoped variables. It needed better parameter syntax and object loops. Generators are great. I'm not sure how much else of what is being added is strictly necessary as opposed to a technological debt for the future that must be supported for compatibility.
I suspect there are EU rules on the top of the chain forcing all member countries to enforce such laws.

I have found a fairly frequent distinction between taxi drivers and Uber drivers as well. Taxi drivers must be at least 30 years old, which may skew it slightly, though young Uber drivers are not the norm either.

Uber drivers tend to shoot the shit more, talk informally about business, about their day jobs, maybe about politics or what restaurants are nearby. Taxi drivers tend to talk about the past, about passengers they've had, or about how bad other drivers are.

Maybe this is because a lot of Uber drivers are only part-time, so their life experience has more facets. Maybe it's because of the age bias. Or perhaps it's because feedback about taxi drivers is rarely registered. In any case, the expected value of conversation is higher with Uber than a taxi. I suspect it's likely to level out over time; I hope taxis drivers will up their game rather than Uber ones lowering theirs.
To me, the need to resort to such tactics indicates that Uber doesn't have a very big advantage over its competitors.

The usual reason passengers seem to prefer Uber is their easier availability and greater reliability. Others will catch on to this soon enough.

It is also notable that in places with a better reputation for taxi services, such as in London, Uber's inroads have not been as great as they have been in SF or NY.
And Jobs, in turn, selected them to associate himself with the image of artists, jazz musicians, and designers.

If the government can see beforehand that they would not agree to extradition, I think it's just a waste of money to ask the courts whether it would be legal.

There's nothing legally stopping the Swedish government, at best notions of procedural propriety that are not binding. Truth is even so, ministries meddle with the departments - or are accused of it, with varying degrees of reasonableness - all the time. When the case against Assange was revived (the first prosecutor dismissed it in unusually clear terms), that was as I see it far more pernicious meddling than pre-rejecting extradition of a political refugee would be.
You have to consider how difficult it is for the police to do anything in that circumstance – it's just 'he say, she say.' It might be easier if you've filed a police report and your bike is registered, but even then there is no evidence (especially on the spot) that the seller (who is probably just lingering around and not an actual registered flea market seller) stole the bike. I think part of it is also the culture: you don't want cops coming into a flea market to arrest people, because the whole flea market is a bit of a legal grey zone.

However, you should definitely press charges every time if you do get the police involved. That's the only way to reduce bike theft. If you don't press charges, the thief simply goes and steals another bike the next day.

"The thing is that those vulnerabilities are all fixed in Debian as all provided packages are maintained and security fixes are backported."

It took me a while to decide to drive my own car, and one of the incidents prompting me to do it was when a taxi driver, having arrived at the destination (in this instance, the building where I worked), had walked out to urinate, right there on the sidewalk, in plain sight.

It's kinda sad how without personal accountability, that's the service that you get, and on the other hand, how Orwellian many of the ways to make workers accountable are.
