>Some shit head got a gold star for "finding a weapon" and I get fucked.

Everything about security and law enforcement has some level of perverse incentives. People learn to game the system and their supervisors don't care as long as there's a benefit to them. I'm certain this guy knew it was a toy, but he wanted that gold star and his supervisor wanted a report showing all the gold stars that month were from his guys.

This is a classic problem in management. The real question is who can fix this? In government, perverse incentives eventually become the norm, not the exception, as everyone eventually gets in the game and there's no reason for anyone to upset the cart. Especially when the higher ups are riding the pension/public sector union bus and anything that could risk that or cause a political issue is just ignored. They're not going to be the fall guy here. The shitheads outnumber them vasty. More than likely these managers are just ex-shitheads who played the game better than the other shitheads in the past and got promoted.

If airport security was run by a private company, the government could fire these guys and go with a different vendor if there was enough political pressure (or threaten to to get needed reforms), but because the TSA is the government, we're stuck with them.
Let's say everyone shows up to the airport 3 hours before their flights. At 9:00 on Monday, the airport holds all people with flights departing between 9:01 and 12:00 -- 3 hours' worth of people.

Now you change that, asking people to show up 24 hours before their flights. At 9:00 on Monday, the airport holds all people with flights departing between 9:01 Monday and 9:00 Tuesday -- 24 hours' worth of people, eight times as much.

Airports can't hold 8x as many people without being in violation of the fire code.

In other words, imperative data structures?

My experience with implementing custom data structures in Rust:

(0) Purely functional data structures: You don't even need borrows to express them. The main downsides are: poor locality of reference, inability to parameterize the data structure over whether its nodes are uniquely owned or reference counted. HKTs would fix the latter.

(1) Imperative data structures: Not even mutable borrows will help you. You just need to drop down to `unsafe` code.

Apparently George Simjian came up with the idea before Goodfellow, but he was ahead of his time and also didn't make any money with the idea:

EDIT: That is mentioned briefly in the article, too.
A big part of Uber's advantage is corporate nullification. I'm sure their app is nice, but avoiding regulation appears to be their big advantage. Government may be slow, but it will catch up eventually. There are already several cities moving to update regulations so that Uber and the local taxi companies are playing by the same rules.
I think the point the previous commentator was trying to make is the distinction between the 'tech industry' a la Silicon Valley versus other industries - and it would be unfair to credit the former with any innovation in the latter. Pretty much every industry since we have invented fire has grown through advances in 'tech'. So what makes a firm a 'tech' firm - in this day and age it's hard to say, and I'm not sure if it's a useful exercise.

Businesses: you must own your online audience
This past weekend there was a trail running event which I missed b/c I am not on FB anymore! Since closing my FB account I wonder what else will I be missing; sadly, it seems a great deal.

I always tell my clients: own your audience, only use FB as a channel to drive traffic to your own website/app. However, I see them going in the opposite direction.

What is the problem?

When you do not own the audience nor the space where your audience gathers, you miss a lot of tools: newsletters, adding features (except the features FB implements for FB Pages), engagement, full control of what you can say, full control of what your audience can do. More importantly: the wall/river is broken: your message gets lost in a river of noise, unless you pay to highlight it on a banner/ad, but even then it will be mostly ignored.

"You need a FB account" cannot be a pre-requisite for your potential/existing clients to interact with you online.
Would they cut her finger off if she denied that request?
> you can avoid the long wait to be screened and therefore increase the wait time for most people.

Wait, what? I am always frustrated at seeing the folks in those shorter lines (though I settle down at roughly the point of view others have expressed in this thread, that paying for shorter lines is a fact of all parts of life and doesn't seem to abrogate any fundamental right of mine), but it has never occurred to me to think that someone in one of them is lengthening my wait time. If anything, then he or she is shortening it by not being in my line.

Maybe your point is that the screeners for those short lines could be re-deployed to relieve some of the pressure on the longer ones, if the shorter lines didn't exist at all; but, given that they do exist, no-one's use of them seems to me to have any effect on my wait time.

Thanks. This site seems to indicate it was "up to" "nearly" 40x.

An EU perspective (and EU rules) http://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/apr/21/all-top-sell... has results no where near 40x.

None of that of course is "slightly less", but that wasn't my point.
Very interesting name. Have been trying to find similar research. Thanks a lot.
PIN Code is also required when you fail to authenticate with Touch ID five times. So one could use the wrong finger a few times and that would solve the problem ;).
It's also well known that as you become fitter, your body becomes more efficient at performing the same activities. It doesn't surprise me that people who habitually run get fitter, burn fewer calories per mile, and need to run farther to maintain the same burn rate. That these people are also getting older at the same time might just be a coincidence.

It just means the minimum amount of time between flights that an airline will require. They will try not to let you book a connecting flight 10 minutes after the first one lands; that would be an "illegal connection". Not an actual law, just airline policy.
What will funding them "fully" accomplish? Do you believe that their inability to catch terrorists is a matter of lack of funding?

It is, presuming that your macros and micros are still in line. It's easy to eat the same meal for lunch and dinner every day and lose weight but be very unhealthy while doing so.

Transcriptic | Full Time | ONSITE (Menlo Park, CA) | www.transcriptic.com

All job listings: https://www.transcriptic.com/hiring

Transcriptic is setting new standards for basic research by making life science discoveries cheaper, faster, and more accessible than anyone thought possible. We enable scientists to run experiments on our automated work cells via our web application from anywhere in the world. Rather than carry out wet-lab experiments by hand, researchers can code up (or visually configure) their experimental protocols and then run them in Transcriptic's central, highly automated 'biocenter' in an on-demand way. Customers have no upfront capital costs and pay for only what they use. Life science research today is incredibly slow, error-prone, monotonous, and expensive with researchers spending many hours a day every day just moving small volumes of liquids from one place to another. We're building a long-term company to completely change the way life science research and development is done.

On top of our robotic work cells is a slew of internal services as well as a Rails app that acts as our lab information management system and customer-facing UI. Challenges for our web devs range from building rich, interactive interfaces for composing protocols to presenting analytical data generated by the lab back to the user. We use d3, React, and CoffeeScript today, but you'd be free to choose your own tools and libraries.

We're a rapidly growing startup, now 30-something people, well funded ($15M) and have customers at places like Harvard, MIT, Caltech, UCSF, and Stanford. You'd be able to work on interesting science and hard technology in a small, all technical team with lots of freedom and resources.

We're looking for talented people to join our team. You'll have competitive salary and benefits, subsidized commuting, free caffeine and food, and great teammates.

Our process takes 2-4 weeks, and includes 2 30-minute phone calls, a take-home exercise, and an onsite interview. During the first call, we'll go more into what you can expect during the process.

What about feeling tired/lethargic during the time in which you fast?

Also, can your body really efficiently utilize all of the micro/macro nutrients it needs in a day when it's handed them all at once?

I agree that IF can be a good little mental trick for a quick cut, but I'm skeptical on one meal a day for a life time and if there's any negative effects that could come up.

Slightly off-topic, but just to clarify Miami requires everyone to go through security again for an international connection, or was this a special case?
My anecdotal experience seems to confirm this. I've gained ~30 lbs throughout my 20s (130 --> 160), even though I've become at least twice as active as I have ever been in my late teens.

The weight gain has been both fat and muscle, however, but I'm not exactly sure in which proportions (I can notice both more subcutaneous fat in the belly area as well as more pronounced muscles)

By far the biggest metabolic cliff seems to occur around ~25 years of age +-1-2 years. I've noticed a very sharp increase in weight around that time, despite keeping my diet constant.
Unsurprisingly, it's already divided into three different aircraft - F-35A, F-35B, F-35C. They were supposed to be 70% common, but that's simply not achievable so the differences are quite a bit larger.
I have a mild suspicion that a lot of it comes down basically to what the cultural norm is for your area in terms of political leanings, as that's likely to rope in the most people who aren't really paying attention to what they think as much as what "their people" think -- and so they make politics into a team sport.
No, they'd just hold her in contempt.
> In this day and age it's just not thinkable to let people enter a plane without a security check.

Few would suggest that. But the security measure that were in place in the US prior to 9-11 took far less time and cost much less, and in my opinion provided a similar level of security.

> And it's not that checks are less thorough around [any European airport ].

Really? Do they require you to remove shoes and belts, plus all items (even scraps of paper) from your pockets? Do they require you to stand motionless, hands raised for 1-2 mins to be scanned by a millimeter wave or backscatter x-ray machine or submit to a 15 min careful patdown and swabbing?

> It really just seems to be a funding issue.

I disagree -- I think it is largely an issue of what security measures they choose to utilize.
Probably the same reason people get the newest model of iPhones whenever they come out.
I've noticed that Touch ID is super brittle (at least on my own iPhone 5S), too. If your finger's slightly wet, that may be enough.

Indeed, trying it now, if I lick my finger and then use it to try and unlock my iPhone a few times, it disables Touch ID and requires a passcode!
I agree with the comments below: a fingerprint is a username, not a password. I don't have a problem with compelling the provision of identification given an appropriate warrant; I do have a problem with compelling the provision of information held only in someone's head, with or without a warrant.
"Something you have" isn't part of a password, its an alternative, non-password factor; passwords are always "something you know".

There is a trend to use biometrics in place of passwords, which is a convenience feature which compromises security, even though it is often misrepresented as a security feature. (Using biometrics as a second factor helps security, but there is a big difference between "and" and "or" security measures.)

How many times have you lost and regained? I ask because I am a little older and have done that cycle multiple times. This last time I am going on a decade without periods of large weight gain. The first time you lose a lot of weight you feel like you have it mastered and that is one of the ways your brain gets you. Eventually you figure you have it handled, relax and then two years goes by and you are heaver than when you started. I've done that at least 3 times
