Honestly, where has it made life possible where it was not?
Most places have been inhabited for eons, or settled before the invention of the internal combustion engine.
Only NEXUS requires an iris scan, and only for entering Canada via an air border.
Yeah I'll give you that.
I voted you up, you gave great information to potential candidates and included a rough pay idea, hopefully you'll float to the top. Best of luck!
Block #0 has a timestamp of 2009-01-03 18:15:05

Block #1 has a timestamp of 2009-01-09 02:54:25

So, does this mean there were 6 days separating the first block in the chain and the first block to be mined?

Yes, they have that pod system (although it's a glorified serial security scanner so I'm not sure of the benefit), and then they herd you through the full body scanner. The line was as bad as any I've seen on this side of the pond.

Well yes, but the question is just how large. In a small car, there probably simply wasn't enough room without completely changing the chassis design. But really, WhyTF do you need a 10k mile service interval? No one expects to drive 10k miles without refilling the fuel tank. No one even expects to drive 10k miles without refilling the windshield washer fluid tank! Car companies don't expect people to drive 10k miles and then take their car to the dealership to put more windshield washer fluid in for them; any moron can refill that tank with a $1.50/gallon bottle from Walmart. But somehow people aren't competent to refill their AdBlue tank and need ridiculously-long service intervals? But they can be trusted to refill their fuel tanks with a highly-flammable and toxic substance (one with poisonous fumes, no less) every week or two?

I too was having paywall issues as well. Contacted customer support, and they said i didn't have the web access enabled for whatever reason. Enabled and problem solved. Might be worth contacting them.
Yeah, in some countries "the blockchain" strongly implies Bitcoin itself, whereas in others, particularly the US, "the blockchain" could refer to a blockchain in any setting, e.g. an altcoin.

That's an amazing idea! Wish I had the spare time to dedicate to it D:
This is a form of LSM tree which sacrifices range queries to gain at most 5x write amplification over 5 levels. That translates into a significant increase in throughput compared to LevelDB and RocksDB.
Why would you be so obvious as to misspell "signature", rather than replace one of the letters with an identical-looking high-Unicode alternative?
Some of their other writing seems to be of a similarly low quality. Another of their pages [0] seems to mirror a post [1] that they had sent to comp.lang.lisp, where they describe their difficulty with finding out the identities behind some blogs in sufficient detail.

> PS it annoys me to no end when one cannot easily find the name of the author on blogs, when the blog author clearly didn't meant to be anonymous. Is there a reason you didn't want it spelled it out?

This turns into a small rant against handles, which, if you set aside the jargon, are essentially nicknames.

> (i despise hacker culture, where these “hackers” idiotic-namesake prefer to go by “handles” or abbrevs (e.g. “RMS”, “ESR”, “JWZ”) or whatnot insider-fashion fuck. But that's just me.)

One person seemed a bit annoyed by them, so they then responded with a larger rant [2] that proposes that “hackers” are a strict subset of the people who like to tinker with computers, without ever clearly describing what it is about “hackers” that they “despise” — concluding:

> It is this group of people, i despise. More accurately: i despise their general style and outlook. I despite them. Fuck them. FUCK hackers. FUCK their hacking. Fuck their mothers. Scumbags.

At this point, I’d have dismissed them as a troll, but they went to the effort of buying a domain name and everything!

No ill will towards these companies/founders, but:

- To some degree Foursquare and Zenefits (still have time to fix)
- The flash sales category

One challenge is that when things aren't going well companies are much quieter than when companies are going well.

Of course, unlike the bombs dropped on Japan modern thermonuclear weapons burn large amount of U328 with the fast neutrons created from fusion, resulting in large amounts of fallout. They may not cause many radiation deaths from their explosion but the fallout they create will endanger people downwind for a long time after the initial explosion.

That depends, some use U-238 for this purpose to about double the yield, some don't, like the 50 Mt Tsar Bomba in its one test: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsar_Bomba

I don't have words to convey how much I hope we never see those weapons used in anger.

Nothing that I know about human nature suggests that they'll again never be used in anger, it's only a question of when. Hopefully not any time soon.
Thanks for the link, it didn't really satisfy my curiosity though :)

Obviously there are a lot of biochemical triggers for fat storage, muscle growth etc. Leptin has a very large part to play along with insulin, etc.

If something controls the fat storage levels, it makes sense that they will grow back after being removed via liposuction, especially if the person doesn't fundamentally change what / how they are eating. Their insulin resistance, leptin levels, etc will control this regardless of the actual surgery implications.

I'd be interested in a longer term study where an obese person undergoes something like liposuction, then also changes their diet to something more in line with low carb to fix these insulin and leptin issues and see if those cells actually regrow.

Agree that in theory internship programs can be a great demonstration of the lack of credentialism.

Having gone through the internship gauntlet myself with an AmaGooFaceSoft company in my undergrad years, though, I could count the number of interns from non-top schools on one hand, out of a total cohort of ~300 interns.

The internship mechanism would be more convincingly meritocratic if its ranks weren't almost exclusively stacked with MIT/Stanford/Berkeley/CMU/other-top-school students.
NPR: “Bitcoin's Maker Revealed”
These three Earth-like planets may be our best chance yet at detecting life
Considering the fact that it takes about 60 microseconds for sound to travel about 2cm, you only have about 900 cycles (assuming the same clock speed as an Arduino: 16MHz) to process the input sound, do a fast Fourier transform of the noise, and output the cancellation wave. I severely doubt that it can be implemented to be that fast. And not to mention that spikes in sound aren't nicely dealt with in Fourier transforms, so it's unlikely to actually remove the noise properly.
Pop vote. The idea is to only remove a sitting president if the people really want it. 50% to remove would happen to often in this day.

So many possibilities really. . .

- Satoshi died somewhere along the line and there will never be a reveal since he didn't pass the keys to someone else.

- Satoshi enlisted Wright to take over for him if/when he would pass away. He did and now Wright is bungling the whole affair

- Wright either knew Satoshi or was with him at the very beginning of BTC. This would explain his possession of very early block chain keys (#9 instead of #0.

- Wright had been working with Satoshi since the beginning, and now Wright (who many have commented is crazy) had a falling out of some sorts and is rushing to take credit as BTC's creator.

- Wright is simply a con man trying to flush Satoshi out by claiming he is BTC creator and then waiting for him to appear. Not sure what the end game would be in this scenario

- Wright is crazy AND a con man and is trying to claim credit as BTC creator for several reasons, many of which are probably motivated by money.

This could go several different ways, but for my money, it seems like Wright was probably around in the early days, and got in right away with a bunch of early keys to earlier block chains. From the outside it looks like his life as a fraud is starting to unravel and catch up with him. I feel like this is the last gasp to try and retain some respectability in the community. He already has a litany of legal problems his facing, and considering very few people believe he is Satoshi, this isn't going to end well for him.

BlackOut: Speeding Up Large RNN Language Models (ICLR 2016)
Right to live where you work seems to be a good one.

The people who work in the center (often government, large companies) are usually also the most well-off, so living close to work is to a good approximation what you'd get with market prices.

temporary visitors.

Temporary visitors typically visit the center which is where most of the cultural landmarks as well as the party-infrastructure is located.

If we generalise the "live where you work" to "stay where you spend most of your time, then it makes a lot of sense
for the visitors to be housed in the centre. Otherwise you force a large amount of commuting on them. For course that doesn't matter much for each individual visitor because they are around only for a short time, but that's not the right metric. It means that Berlin's infrastructure is heavily taxed with all that unnecessary commuting by (every changing) visitors.
>“My thought was, okay, let’s just wait. If he is serious, he’s going to ask me again,” says Song, professor of neurology

This is a horribly destructive attitude, that promotes salesmanship over technical talent.
Sure, which is why I always go back to the Reddit comments, instead of reading them there. It's just disappointing.
> For those seeking a reason to why we exist, there is no better reason than to love.

Again, for YOU. Don't project your desires and need for purpose onto others and presume we're all like you. YOU think there is no better reason than love, that doesn't make it true for everyone. YOU have a need to understand why, some of us have no such need because we recognize the question is invalid, there is no WHY because that presumes purpose which doesn't exist objectively, only subjectively. The meaning is always subjective, your reasons are not my reasons and you're speaking as if it is, as if all people need such things and that's simply not the case.

My point is, don't tell people what the meaning of life is because you're going to be wrong; that's YOUR meaning for YOUR life and that's it.
For the use-case that the paper presents, I don't think that range search is that important. Most use-cases for LSM-trees so far have been keeping in-memory metadata costs down (i.e. replacing storage engines such as Bitcask), and converting random writes into sequential writes so as to make the most of disk throughput and not wear out SSDs. LSM-trees have had shortcomings in the past with write amplification, and I think this paper does well in addressing that (besides pushing the envelope in terms of reducing in-memory metadata costs).
The F-35 is becoming the definitive example of how scope creep destroys a project. A system designed to do everything for everyone. When it should be designed to do one thing better than everything else.

Divide the F-35 into three different attack aircraft. Single engine CAS with STOVL capability. Big/fast/stealthy twin engine bomber. Carrier based attack drone. All three would likely fulfill their roles better for lower total cost and be operational on a shorter timeframe.

The F-35 reminds me of this short story by A. C. Clarke
