None of those would necessarily indicate that the farmers are acting irrationally in the previously described exchanges.

It isn't that this new syntax is slow, so much as V8 has a shit-ton of internal machinery dedicated to optimizing specific execution paths, and it is those things which get a massive efficiency boost. In that sense, becoming syntax complete is just a first step down a very long road.
Thanks for the reply Brian. I'm a big fan of sharding across hosts and doing your own RS. I'm mildly surprised that you're disk and CPU limited, but there's lots of factors that can come into play with that and it sounds like you are happy with the tradeoffs which is all that really matters. I'm a big fan of what Backblaze has done. If you ever want to talk about replication strategies or similar stuff, I've built large scale storage systems in the past--please feel free to reach out to the email in my profile if you'd like to talk shop and trade notes.
So basically the fact is, two weeks after the author sent an email to this monk, his blog got spammed by comments in Chinese.

And the conclusion is his blog was hacked by the Chinese. Maybe there are some correlation here but it seems too quick to jump to the conclusion that the email caused the Chinese government hacked your blog?

Maybe it is because of something you posted on your blog rather than the email?

A genuine wellness program would, for instance, give employees discounts on commercial fitness gym memberships or certain categories of foods, offer compensatory time off for hours worked in excess of 40 in any given week, sponsor moderated team obesity reduction contests, sponsor smoking cessation support efforts, sponsor athletic clubs and events for employees, give vitamin D reminders throughout the cold, dark winter months, etc.

The typical "wellness program" gives you a $X discount over the plan year in exchange for a 3rd-party call center company to collect your health information and nag you to not be so unhealthy over the phone at regular intervals. They have to tiptoe around ADA and anti-discrimination laws. The insurance discount is wholly insufficient to pay for any measure that would genuinely impact health. Given the choice between giving employees a direct $120 a year benefit for gym membership and splitting $50 discount to the employee and $70 expense to a professional call center nag, the group insurer invariably picks the latter.

You see, if you just give away the fitness gym membership, there's no leverage to make the employee actually go there and work out.

My current company invites people to get free blood pressure checks from staff of the local hospital system. I am not fooled by this. This is not motivated by concern for my health, but as a means to monitor the blood pressure of employees who already feel they must do so. The measurement is free, during business hours. Any intervention that might improve health, such as counseling or medication, has to come from the employee's own pocket, on their own time.
Well that's a good thing for all of us including Clapper himself whether he recognizes this or not.

> they hire their own couriers who go out, deliver and take cash at the door

Yeah, that's what people in the US did before everyone had credit cards. Cash on delivery. Growing up, I remember hearing ads on TV that said "no COD" when that service was being phased out. More and more people were using credit cards.

You're right, many countries could use trusted couriers in order to spur local markets and economic growth.

Here in Taiwan you can have something sent to 7-11 or Family Mart and pay for it there. There are tons of these shops everywhere, and with the receipts lottery, the government guarantees it gets enough taxes even in a cash-based society. It's a pretty cool system and often feels funny how convenient 7-11s are here. In the US they're just a snack shop. Here you can have packages sent, do laundry, pay bills, ...

Your understanding is incorrect, actually. HMOs do charge higher insurance rates for people who are less healthy on the aggregate. You are using the word, "penalize," but it has nothing to do with penalties, it has to do with market offerings, as HMOs offer insurance to employers based upon the risk pools. If we use your word, "penalty," to mean "higher pricing," - then less healthy workforces get penalized with higher rates for being unhealthy, sort of like group punishment. Of course using the word penalty or punishment makes it sound like there is some kind of unfair aggressor involved, like a parent punishing their kid for having cancer. In reality it's a cold, heartless, unfeeling robot assigning values based upon what it predicts will happen. See my other response for more explanation on that.
Isomorphic React Apps with React-Engine
Well they would most all be in better off shape if they did not waste their resources on heavy rail. About the only need for such is to airports, past stadiums, and possibly central commercial districts. However their cost per mile to install, maintain, and operate, all wreck budgets. Worse many bus routes get co-opted to serve rail nodes which worsens the bus experience and not really help the rail.

The key reasons buses are better is that they can go where people need to go and are not locked in to where they are built out at.

The sad part is that in many parts of the world ridership doesn't increase much with the cost going down, even to free. hopefully autonomous fuel cell / battery cars and buses will make point to point more manageable and viable overall.
Processor Technology Puts Faith in Core Value
how about...

return myArray.map(item => `I am ${item}, yo!`);

vs

return myArray.map(function(item){
return 'I am ' + item + ', yo!';
});

There are a lot of one liners that are much more composable in the fat-arrow syntax. The default returns takes a lot of it out, and makes it simpler the simpler it starts.

Beyond this, the above also uses templates, which you can even create custom processors for templates...

var result = await sql`
SELECT *
FROM
a
WHERE
a.foo = ${bar}
`

You can create an sql processor that turns that query as a template into a parameterized query for the database, that returns a promise, which inside an async function can be awaited directly... I wrote a few libraries that did just that to make using sql, bigtable (azure tables), queues and other pieces really easy to use... With that I was able to write data migration scripts with ease... it was really awesome to see.

Your second example is only if there's no default export... the local name doesn't have to match the name of the module, also modules can be `foo.bar` or `foo_bar` or `foo-bar` which can't be a single value within the script... so it creates a disconnect there, requiring the localized in-script name.

is more closer to what I was looking.
Here is a simple way to see the results for yourself.

1)Spend 30 days eating paleo.

2)Monitor your blood pressure, energy levels, bowel movements, sleep quality

3)Get a fasting glucose test and complete blood lipid profile including HDL/LDL. Research how to read it or ask your dr to interpret the results.

4)Do the same for a very low fat diet (about 10% total calories from fat)

Prediction: You will notice the difference in your body and your energy levels. Your Dr will like the results of the low fat diet much better. (Spoiler: I went through a Paelo/Crossfit phase too so I have already tried this and I personally know many others who have so it is fairly easy to predict what will happen. )

This is the last comment that I will make... I don't want to offend anybody. Rather, I hope somebody finds this useful and starts on a path to being much healthier...

Remember: Fat+Carbs, not just carbs, causes insulin resistance and leads to type 2 diabetes. If you eliminate the fat your diabetes will improve. If you eliminate the carbs your diabetes will also improve... but you will reduce your energy levels by forcing your body into ketosis and greatly increase your odds of high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, digestive problems and more.

This is not the issue with that statement at all, and for the record I'm skeptical of cars sharing data to augment what they see (because this leaves them open to attacks that are unique to self-driving cars).

The problem with the statement is that it, as the GP post says, ignores the fact that a human driving a car is no less likely to barrel through an intersection with a missing stop sign.

There are a few other low level problems with this scenario as well, mostly hinging on the weird idea that self-driving cars are just going to barrel into an intersection without a stop sign as if there are no other cars going through it. This is why they have radar/lidar/whatever else.
In that case it's weird that I wasn't familiar with the name.
"people asking for information are simply killed off in a dark street"

Sorry, but this is absurd. People that are asking for information are usually harassed and threatened. They don't kill people like flies. This kind of rhetoric is meant to paint black and white portraits of the world, and is simply inaccurate.
street cars, falling under the light rail category, suffer a similar problem to heavy rail solutions. they are expensive to adapt to changes in usage. if the needs of the people change and the street car wasn't going that way you can't fix it quickly or cheaply.

Well, actually, I did understand JS. I understood it really well. You could show me any obscure piece of JS and I could tell you the semantics.

Then I started using other languages more seriously and now I am much happier and more productive.

What problem do they have that a blockchain solves? The big win for bitcoin is that the consensus blockchain can be chosen without trust. I would think the military wouldn't be worried about manufacturing consensus among untrusted nodes.

I guess if the messages are stored in the blockchain, a device would be able to delete the key and other information needed to access the message, effectively deleting the message from the device, protecting the user of the device from having to answer for the content of the message.

What about email implies materialism?

You're also mixing different traditions here, that all have their own perspectives on what monks can and can't do.

Materialism in the Buddhist sense is about mental attachment. Desire (attachment) stems from the mind, not the object itself (attachment is not a property of the object), and different meditation practices have different techniques to work with that mental attachment. Reducing your possessions is a very effective strategy in reducing attachment--but it certainly doesn't do anything without developing mental renunciation simultaneously. I'm curious if this is an American or Western perspective on poverty--that poverty itself is somehow liberating.

In terms of email, there's nothing luddite about Tibetan Buddhism. Technology is embraced as another avenue for speech, which the mind can be attentive to.

This seems quite an advertisement for bitcoin.

When? and Growing Utility?

Bitcoin has decreasing utility since the initial hype.

1. The few companies that accepted it are gradually stoping to support it (Microsoft for instance).

2. We have reached a standstill that shows every bit why highly unregulated systems are difficult to maintain (the miners care only about short term profit and are making bitcoin as a payment system unusable in order to secure short term profit).

3. Even great contributors for the project have come out against it lately explaining the total dystopian mess that is the bitcoin core team and exiting the project.[http://uk.businessinsider.com/bitcoin-has-failed-says-develo...]

4. Bitcoins are in the hand of a very few people that own massive amounts of them (see blockchain.info top wallets) that seem to be going around trying their best to get a few remaining uninformed people to believe in the system long enough so that they can offload their bitcoins. [http://www.bitcoinrichlist.com/top100]

I see very few people trying to get into bitcoin and a see a great deal of somewhat high profile people trying to keep the hype going just a bit more so that they can recover at least part of their investment in a failed experiment.

Still, 2 good things came out of this in the end: the blockchain which is a great tool for a lot of projects; and an eye opener of what can happen for people that want the financial system to have even less regulation.
