IMO if you're working more than 50 hours a week and you don't own at least 3% of the eventual outcome, you should consider a less stressful position. Don't short change your health and well-being for a lower expected return than just working for one of the big guys. All IMO of course.
Yes, and in Moscow as well.

If the actual mission of the TSA was preventing terrorist acts, then they would have done something about this massive and completely obvious vulnerability.

My opinion, however, is that the TSA has become an arm of the DEA and the "war on drugs". They make a big security theater production in the name of stopping terrorists but 99% of their daily activities are centered on seizing drugs.
I agree there will always be Android and iOS, but for different reasons. Brand loyalty taps into the same part of the brain that team loyalty does. Being a die hard Apple fan is the same as being a die hard Red Socks fan, as far as our brain is concerned. So to create that brand loyalty, there has to be two separate teams to compete against, a rivalry. Mac vs Windows. Android vs iOS. Mets vs Phillies.

Having two separate and competing ecosystems actually makes Apple more money than if they had a monopoly. You're not just buying a mobile phone, you're on our team now. You're one of us. And we all have Apple laptops too.
Thanks, pjc50, for the helpful reference. This is the author of the book here. Your instincts are sharp. As it happens, I deal with exactly your last argument in the book, so let me gently suggest that if in fact there were "no way" for anything but central control, this book would not exist because there would be no story to tell. However, it does, and the three-decade Soviet story told here, whose protagonist is a leading theorized of in fact decentralized power, might deserve another glance...
I think the definition of "work hard" and "rich" is different in every culture.

In general, you don't have to be so rich in Europe to have a high quality of life, and even then the differences aren't so huge. (Anecdote: When I worked in the US, I was a bit shocked when somebody basically told me only poor people use public transport).

Also, when comparing working in England, Germany, and the US, I'd rank them in that order for working "smart" vs "hard". Roughly: In the US, overtime is expected. In Germany, 9 to 5 is expected. In England, getting the work done is what matters - they seem to be far less hung up on actual time tracking (and meetings, oh god, either Americans love meetings or don't tell their boss to get lost).

Obviously, this works better for some industries (software being one). Many of us work intensively, e.g. coding when in the flow. In general, my boss doesn't mind me leaving early or taking an hour break to go to the gym or walk around, because we both know at that point I'm mentally spent. In the US, people just didn't do that, and it was frowned upon.
That's why the BVS they've built becomes so important. The amount of test-cases you have to satisfy go beyond the human mind's ability to hold.

But if you have a farm that tests v1 of your new champs abilities against all others, you know exactly where the 20% of problems will lie. This is where designers earn their paycheck- two abilities that won't resolve by design, and where the programmer puts 80% of their work.

80/20 rule scales with the product, I suppose :)
A number of African nations are currently struggling with this -- attempting to bootstrap nationwide networking from zero, while having economies which are very much command economies (although in Africa, that's due to corruption, rather than being baked into the law).

In one small African nation the government was intensely interested in building a national system for finding lost cows. (This was a much-touted presidential initiative.) Basically, farmers would be able to text their cow's ID and the system would tell them if another farmer had found it.

In spite of the simplicity of such a system, it took them years of 'research and development', and enormous budgets spent, for a system which they discovered in the end, didn't work. It turned out, they couldn't figure out how to procure and install a server for it to run on.
I think you just answered your question. Remove choke points.
You meant VPU, not GPU? The GPU is fully open.
How to Make Money Online Fast 2016
Rents in the UK are utterly outstripped by price rises. This is because rents are set by wages whereas prices are set by available credit (and outside money if like the UK you allow full money laundering through land).

I agree loose credit is the primary cause. However that wasn't what my post was about, I was challenging the assertion that planning permission is easily gained. It's not.

Restrictive planning is vital for creating artificial scarcity. To ramp prices with loose credit you have to push supply below demand to create an auction scenario.

I am sorry, how can J2ME even remotely compare to Android?

With J2ME you couldn't write the simplest application before you ran into the platform specific minefield (example: how to read the D-pad on different phones?). On Android, running into problems is the exception not the rule.
There are also differences between gaining weight, getting fat, and being fat.

People gain weight when they gain muscle, and heavier people by the mechanics of supporting their weight seem to gain and hold muscle more easily than lighter people. More muscle mass has been associated with better health outcomes despite other factors.

I've also read that it's not being fat that's bad for you, but getting fat. Some people are unable to shed subcutaneous fat they gained at one point in their lives and carry a stigma of being fat despite being otherwise very healthy, even in their diet and lifestyle. It's a common idea that not shedding that kind of fat is a problem, but it probably isn't as much as people believe.

Being apparently not-fat could also be an indicator of worse health if you generated corporeal fat more easily than subcutaneous. That's what's being referred to when they say "belly fat" and apple bodies being associated with health problems, not the love handles and soft flab. Many people who look healthy because they're not fat could be skinny-fat, have higher corporeal fat, and not take care to exercise or watch what they eat, thinking that their weight and apparent size are indications that they're doing everything right.

But in cases of obesity, I do see people cheating their diets, focusing on easier but less important factors like steps per day, celebrating their daily water fluctuations as weight loss, and otherwise coming up with endless tricks and reasons to justify not not-eating.

There are many people I've never seen eating, but their trashcans and purses always fill up with food wrappers. They don't count that 900 Calorie Starbucks because it's just a coffee, and Weight Watchers says that's 0 points. Or they didn't use all their points last Tuesday, so they can have a treat today, and probably tomorrow since that doghnut just made up for last week and doesn't count.

That's certainly a broken regulation system, but it's one within their capacity to change.
You don't generate public exponents. Also, public exponents do not need to be prime, only relatively prime to phi(n) so inverses can be computed.
It was actually Ward. I agree that single linkage would have performed better, however the noise would have greatly confused the issue. Robust Single Linkage (Chaudhuri and Dasgupta, 2010) would be the better choice in the presence of noise as with the test dataset (which was designed to be as difficult as possible for clustering algorithms, while being obvious to a human viewer.

Well, there is (d) paranoia.

Suppose he does have the private key, but, because it is literally worth millions of dollars, he has it somewhere secure. It's not sitting on his laptop, waiting for someone to steal it (physically or electronically).

Signing a message before the announcement was lower risk than signing messages now, after the announcement. Accessing it a second time, with greedy little eyes all over him, is risking millions of dollars to convince people who probably wouldn't be convinced anyway.

I tried it with "Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds" and got some pretty useless results:

Nick Cave, which he's done some solo work as
Mick Harvey, one of the members of the band
Grinderman, one of Nick Cave's side projects

The second time was a little better. I used NC&TBS again and got

PJ Harvey, Nick's old girlfriend
Tom Waits, very similar stylistically
Tindersticks, a more recent similar artist.

Third time it actually gave me an artist I had never heard of (Kristin Hersh) and I like what I'm hearing. So, I guess, play around with it a bit before you judge it.

The Arch wiki states: "sshguard is different from the other two in that it is written in C, is lighter and simpler to use with fewer features while performing its core function equally well."
Who provided the laptop? "Fear it would leak before the Official Announcement" is a pretty weak argument. Why not produce a signed message now?

There are a large number of places with densely packed people. The unique thing about airports is their access to airplanes and their capacity to be used as weapons. (I'm taking a broad view of "weapon" here; even old-school hijack-and-divert is still a political "weapon".) If it weren't for that, they wouldn't be particularly interesting and wouldn't need special security. If someone blows up the line, well, they didn't get control over a plane.

Thoughtful terrorists... and thank goodness, a lot of them really aren't... would not choose an airport line, just because it's an airport.

It's also why when we hear about the TSA claiming they need to secure trains, it's a sign that politics has 100% overtaken their supposedly-core mission; trains don't have any of these characteristics that make them any more dangerous than any other large groups of people.
Hence my last paragraph. But alternative launch systems is a good point.
It's weird I was allowed to submit this if it was already submitted. Maybe a bug?
Probably depends on the fridge. Mine is old, really old, like 20 years.

Also it probably just reduces the signal, not kill it completely so maybe how close to the tower you are matters too.
"As you age there is no amount of exercise that will allow you to maintain the amount you weigh in you 20's or 30's."

This seems overly general and anecdotally total BS. I still eat what I like just like I did in my 20s/30s. It's just that what I like is generally lots of vegetables and sufficient protein, with occasional vices slipped in because YOLO(tm).

That said, without the exercise, I gain about a pound per week. That means I am atoning for an extra 400-500 calories daily, no? Or what would you suggest is really going on here?
I'd like to point out that German economy and by extension, regular Germans, heavily depend on exports to the US. So, reducing frictions in trade between US and Europe should make regular Germans better off not worse off. How do you suppose German economy works ?

There's also Swiftest[1], a Swift BDD framework for both Mac and Linux, created and actively maintained by old colleague Brian, who's very passionate about Swift and knows it inside and out. It only works on the open source Swift version, so if that's what you're using, it's worth checking out.

Given he was working in a job, I think the compensation was more than 10 pounds.

Plus like all salary people he had no risk. The bank bank rolled it and got him to work on it.

It's the bank here that actually invented it.
Maybe there's something different about the metabolism of people who manage to reach a weight of 450lbs in the first place. Without exercise and watching what you eat, almost everyone will gain weight, but most people never get anywhere close to the 300lbs+ range.
On the academic side of things, he has a very thin paper trail: http://dblp.uni-trier.de/pers/hd/w/Wright:Craig_S= and http://dl.acm.org/author_page.cfm?id=81488659808&coll=DL&dl=...

I'm not saying the real Satoshi has to be an academic computer scientist, but if someone with a significant academic publication record in cryptography stepped forward, I would take it much more seriously.

Of course, this is secondary to the fact that Wright has not signed a new message with the original Satoshi key.
The issue was quite serious because it was possible to remotely log out a user (via GET) and because the javascript executed when email/password were still in the login form.

I also wonder how well known it is that 'window.location.href' accepts 'javascript:...' URIs which are then executed.

Why do browsers even allow this? Are there any legitimate use cases?
Sorry, yes, I know that. However, what I was trying to say was that they didn't dream of the extent/specific implementation of what we do with those things today.

In 1965, the percentage of people with bachelor's degrees was the same as the percentage with master's degrees today. Obviously, people didn't go out to eat nearly as much, and they saw relatively few movies. The entire household shared a phone, and, even for a private line, the total bill was something like $40/month in today's dollars.

So yeah, my point was that we have a crazy luxurious lifestyle, in comparison, to 50 years ago, in the extent and way that we use these things.

I could never force myself to get up that early to run. Instead, I started going to the Y at 6 am to play pickup basketball for an hour or two. It was a lot easier for me to sustain. I'm not a morning person, and it was really helpful to know there were a bunch of guys who were counting on me to show up so they could play. I have trouble running in general though. I'm very competitive, and I find it much easier to exercise if I'm playing a sport.

That being said, I am the kind of person who generally has to try to actively maintain weight. I exercise for health benefits other than weight loss. Most casual or semi-casual rec sports are very friendly to people who are trying to lose weight though. Gyms and rec sports are probably two of the most welcoming places I've ever been. It can be almost cult-like at times.

I've always been a fan of Debian-based distos over Red Hat based, so I've been quite happy to see the shift from Red Hat to Ubuntu in my career as a Linux admin(the shift away from Red Hat is stronger on the web side, but its happening across many server types).

On Debian vs Ubuntu, I'm actually preferring Ubuntu these days because the LTS release cycle is just much more predictable(but don't do prod servers until LTS.1) and it's easy to get a life cycle in place. It's also much easier to get third part software prepackaged for Ubuntu in versions that may not have shipped with your LTS version. They may work for Debian too, but I've had more luck getting Debian only versions working on Ubuntu than Ubuntu only versions on Debian. Probably because the Debian-only versions are more likely to be thoughtful of Debian derivatives.
I don't mean to belittle what the kid has done. It's an actually amazing accomplishment, for anyone of any age.

But it calls to question a problem. Is there a major issue with cross-disciplinary collaboration within the medical and academic spaces? I would think a mechanical or electrical engineer would consider this to be a fairly trivial application of the tech, yet the medical community seems to be hailing it as a ground-swell.

Imagine this becoming a thing. Where anyone could eventually become Estonia's resident with all the rights (and of course responsibilities) equal to the people actually living there. Once other nations would follow, then the borders would truly start to disappear because it wouldn't really matter where you are located. No more us and them, just people of the earth.

I know it's way too optimistic and this solution probably introduces just as many problems as it solves, but still, one is allowed to dream, right?

An alternative would be that in the weeks where you don't exercise, you feel a little worse, and therefore submit to slightly more of them YOLO vices.

The non-experts did not ask to see things which would be hard for non-Satoshi to provide -- they were at the mercy of the charlatan (paging James Randi, James Randi to the courtesy phone please).

I think Randi would be the first to tell us that the skills required to detect a good conman are quite different from skills in technical fields.

I rarely fly, so consider my statement in that context.

I actually approve of the TSA making flying more onerous. Flying comes at a very high environmental and economic cost to society. We need more trains, more hyperloops, and more VR.
