That makes sense to me?

There is a tiny difference between standing on high moral grounds and being a reliable business partner, though a very small, almost unnoticeable to some.
This sound really cool but I will wait until it is fully Open-Source and I can build it myself.
hopefully this won't come across as an ad hominem, but

you basically said: This difficult thing is difficult.

why are restaurants so difficult. the menu is too low level for most people's comfort zone. most people just want to reduce their hunger level and obtain flavors.

I have been to both and I actually liked the one in Nagasaki much better, it puts it in a proper perspective - Nagasaki was a military harbor. Hiroshima museum is more emotional "look at all the suffering". Plus Nagasaki is a much nicer town in a valley, with the Portuguese colonial houses and much less tourists
Or insiders, for that matter.
I am going to predict that Reddit will soon collapse because it is overrun with conservative minded people. It's starting to become a really hateful community.

SQL is easy. I believe in the life a developer, you will have to run into SQL, here and there which is inevitable.

But we have a lot of other tools now, RDBMS is just one of them. Plus the problems everybody having are vastly different those days, the solution varies with them. Can RDBMS used to address them? Probably. But RDBMS are beasts themselves, the amount of effort to optimize it for your specific requirement, might not look worthy compared to just setup a NoSQL/NewSQL solution that has been built purposefully to perform under certain scenarios.

I believe the new gen of devs, are just being more pragmatic and unconstrained about the data storage solutions the have in the toolkits, and pick whatever they seem fit.
How is allowing hunting/sports/collecting while imposing incredibly harsh penalties on other uses of guns "zero gun usage"? What important use -- other than killing your fellow human beings -- for your guns is not provided for under what I proposed?

(it really does seem like your objection is "I'd no longer be allowed to own a gun for the purpose of killing other people", and my objection, of course, is that this isn't already illegal)
Things you didn’t know about ShopClues
What I don't get is why you would make your peers your enemy. Making the US bargaining side your enemy makes sense, but what problems would your peers have with that? Especially long term.
Estimates vary wildly. According to a Techdirt [1] article, the mentioned 0.5% is pure marketing.

Besides, you can't decontextualize the gains from the losses, both economical and cultural.

I can imagine for example, in worst case scenario, billions transferred from EU to tax havens because of the ISDS, and job losses because of [partial] loss of protection of Geographical indications.

Netflix offered a million prize for a movies recommender and then proceed to not use the winning solution.

Don't underestimate it. It's a large investment, don't think of it as a side part of a project. It's the project.

I did the coursea course mentioned in the other comments and it was ok.

If I was you I'd look at some sort of hack. Using mods or something. If it was possible with software on something common like news it'd be open sourced already.
Yeah, reading that my first assumption was that US citizens suddenly would also be against the details of TTIP.
The Nagasaki History Museum is also very well done, and particularly interesting from a Westerner's point of view. For centuries it was the only city where Europeans were allowed to trade with Japan.
I have been interested in a couchdb api for postgres. But thus far could not find anything.

One option is PouchDB, with levelDOWN* to push it to levelUP* to store it in postgres. But the level of abstraction feels just to much.

I also found another project that basicly keeps a copy in couchdb and sync it over to pg, but stuff like attachments does not work.

* I'm not 100% sure about the projects and how to accomplish it.
You can still read legendary Kuro5hin contributor localroger's writing here: http://localroger.com/
The Wikipedia page mentions that it was running on Scoop, but doesn't include that Scoop was written by Rusty as the framework for k5. Scoop went on to be used in a few other places, among them HuSi (where a bunch of core k5 folks moved to, though it's now pretty defunct as well).

The most well-known site I'm aware of that used Scoop was DailyKos, which I believe started on WordPress, then moved to Scoop (highly customized and eventually almost entirely rewritten I think), then finally onto its own custom-build CMS. There may have also been one more stage in there.

Source: 3-digit UID on DK, and was a regular way way back when on both k5 and HuSi.

C and C++ are both powerful languages but D brings some new things to the table. Then there's E, innovative yes, but why use E when we have F, or better, F#? Personally, I've used G for a couple years now but I am betting the future on the H language.

Some people are already skipping ahead to using K, but the guys I'm most scared by are those who only use R.
You are correct in expecting return of public investment. Actually NIH has a policy that explicitly favors "Basic Scientific Research" over applied or application of research. According to NSF and NIH, the primary goal of government funded research is advancement of science, this is done via conducting experiments, and publishing results at peer reviewed venues. The peer review both during grant application and at publication stage factors heavily into assessment by funding agencies. If tomorrow NSF were to give significant weight to availability of source code (They actually do that to a small extent), it might set up perverse incentives. A small percentage of federally funded research goes into Computer Science and even a smaller fraction involves results where there is enough demand for software. Another aspect of academic funding that people don't get is that research grants unlike say contracts have a significantly different set of expectations associated with them. E.g. a student can get NSF Fellowship, claiming he want to cure diseases using machine learning, only to later spend 3 years working on music recommendation system (True Story!).

Regarding the economics study you linked to, I am very much familiar with that study having seen the interview of graduate student on Colbert Report. For non-CS fields the quality of code is anyway so bad that its much more difficult. Further several researchers rely on proprietary tools, which only make this task difficult.

In my opinion the correct way is not by having NSF impose rules, but rather by having venues that accept papers (Conference & Journals) insist on providing software. However this is easier said than done, since its a competitive two sided market.

Regarding actual licensing issues, I can assure you that GPL is second favorite license of choice favored by University IP departments, the first one being "All rights reserved with modification explicitly forbidden, except for reproduction of experiments."
Spotify, hire musicologists

Strongly disagree with that. For one thing, Spotify already has an army of tastemakers spending all day assembling curated playlists. For another, they have the Echonest data which relies heavily on manual labeling.

But the major innovation in Discover Weekly was to use machine learning directly on mel spectrograms to figure out meaningful features for human taste. They still want to rely on their experts as much as possible (and hey, I don't blame them for not wanting to fire people), so they try to combine their expert's features with the algorithm's. But this introduces human biases again.

The problem is that when it comes to music, everyone's a missionary. Everyone wants the world to listen to the music
they are excited about. Professional opinion-haver about music is the dream job for many adults, much like chocolate factory taste QA expert is for 6-year olds. And they just can't separate their own opinions from objective truths very well. It's hard to be objective about something you love.

The real great thing about AI in recommendations isn't really the intelligence part. It's the "AO" - artificial objectivity. The algorithm is probably inferior to humans in some aspects (it can't interpret the themes in lyrics very well, for instance), but the advantage is that you have full confidence about

1. What information it actually might use, and

2. What it tries to optimize.

From point one, you can be sure that it's opinion on Smashing Pumpkins isn't affected by that annoying kid in 8th grade that used to listen to them. For point two, you can be sure it's really trying to find the music you will love, not what it thinks you should love.

To get it slightly back on track: I can't wait until an AI can do music history, or etymology, or economics, or history. Or matchmaking in dating! It will be useful long before it can match humans on intelligence. How great wouldn't it be to get results in those fields which you could trust were from a disinterested party.
Traditional database design is considered unfashionable these days. You're meant to use more modern designs that eschew old-fashioned ideas like SQL and not causing massive data loss.
I have a counter argument.

There is now too much data system innovation - there are scores of projects each of which implements a particular idea and very few of which have a large enough community to move beyond version 0.3

We can't put our pipelines onto these because the cost of understanding and adopting them overwhelms the benefit of ditching our internal code. We are in the same situation as the NPM / Javascript folks, but our data is an enterprise asset and we have to consider the impact of a project just going away.

The vendors have held us to ransom for years and we've had to break out because it had got to an industry destroying level - really the bills are material to the stock price and time and again it turns out that despite handing over $100m the features and machines you need are not included and you need to send just another $5m over. The money stopped being used for R&D when the consolidation of the 00's happened. The vendors set themselves up as vertically integrated solution providers with the technology as a lock in factor rather than a competitive differentiator. This would have worked if nothing in the economy ever changed again but oddly it turns out that our needs are radically different when competing / collaborating with Facebook & Google vs "old corp who has gone bust now" who were our traditional enemy.

So we're in a fork. The old route of using a trusted technology partner has gone, they have all betrayed their customers every quarter for the last 20 years, not only can't we trust them but we can absolutely predict when and how they will screw us. We flag it for every project to our execs, it's a built in assumption. On the other hand the big hope of opensource alternatives is not arriving in the way that Linux arrived, or maybe it's arriving in the way that Linux on the desktop arrived.

The solution is that the middle tier of corporates have to get more real about opensource. At the moment there's a handful of companies in the Forbes 500 who are significantly involved. CIO's and CFO's don't see the benefit, there is no case at the moment, but if there were 500 >$1m opensource programs running in the corporate world rather than 20 things would be different.

There needs to be a standarization effort and a co-ordination layer. We also need to think through the value chain as well. At the moment leaving it to the market and "revenues from professional services" are not working so well, and I am very cautious about the trend to paid for bits and bobs on top of open source.

The worst outcome would be to go through all this and find that we are back to vendor hell but chained up in a different basement wondering where the bastards in suits have gone. Instead we're going to be guessing that the guy in a cool t-shirt and designer jeans who's fiddling with a blow-torch is going to want something soon.

It's up to us to work out a new model, but what?
Craig Wright Reveals Himself as Satoshi Nakamoto
Somewhat hard to measure.

Not allowing uploads from Facebook or Instagram through file picker.io probably had no effect since almost no ones uses it, but not having a like button may have had some effect.

Google also considers likes for search ranking. It would have been much worse if we already had a Facebook following.

To compensate we focused on Twitter and other ways to gain SEO.

I know it's a generic statement.
My point is that Intel, the most important chip vendor in the world, knows very well how to make ICs. If they know how to make the best desktop and server CPUs, it's only a matter of will and time to translate that knowledge and expertise to the mobile market.
They also have more and better resources (money and engineers).
Don't people with Aspergers lack the ability to understand other people's emotions, rather than lacking theory of mind completely?

It's not just the ability itslf, it's the training it provides. Normal children get a near immediate feedback if they guessed emotions correctly. It's like having somebody with you 24/7 telling you how the people around you feel. Those without the ability don't have that luxury.
Well, it still has Rusty's name in the non-obscured fields in the Whois data.
If you looked at the issues and verified they're either not applicable in your case or don't affect your application, you already spent a lot of time on it. If you do install, you should verify your app still works. If not, you already spent time on analysis. The actual installation time is next to nothing compared to everything else around the "new jre came out" event.

What I'm saying is - you should care 7+ times a year. Doesn't matter if you only update twice.

Google's cache has approximate 480 story pages still in its cache. The Wayback Machine won't show any results for the site because of its current robots.txt.

Kuro5hin is really what I cut my teeth on before I discovered Wikipedia. I wrote an article on Buddhism, it wasn't that great but I learned a lot!

This annoys me to no end. It basically means that you can retroactively censor content by buying a domain that was parked for 10 years and then remove the old content with one little robots.txt. All of this regardless of the wishes of the original creators.
FWIW, くろ (kuro) is the "kunyomi" of 黒 and しん(shin) is the "onyomi" of 心. Japanese 2-character compound words don't mix onyomi and kunyomi. I don't think there is a character with a "kuro" onyomi or one with a "shin" kunyomi (well, there's 信じる (shinjiru), but that's a reading that doesn't go without the hiragana).
After 2005 to 2006 the site became ridiculous. That's because Rusty had the guts ripped out of him when some arsehole photoshopped his wife's image on a pornographic image.

The trolls laughed at it, but it destroyed the site and I really feel that Rusty never had the same attitude toward K5 ever again.

This is why trolling needs to be banned. It's OK to have some fun, but when you start pissing in your own backyard, or let terrible people to take over, then they bully even the founders and everything goes to shit.

Twitter should take note.
I couldn't put it better myself and it's sad others are so shortsighted you got instantly shut down simply for not elucidating the blaringly obvious.

Boo hoo SQL + DocumentDB isn't enough? I never saw any justification for the premise.
I early exercised my CloudFlare stock as soon as I got it. As a result, I had 0 taxable gain at that point, and if the company eventually exits, my gains will be long term capital gains, AND they will be gains in whatever state I'm resident in at the time (exceedingly unlikely to be California -- Washington, for instance, has 0% income tax, no tax on capital gains, and no AMT, plus (outside Seattle) I can afford to buy a house.)
Conservative is probably the wrong word, hateful being more correct. And it's a serious problem on reddit.

The majority of redditors are generally left-leaning. But the hateful people on reddit are more organized and more dedicated. They participate in degrading the experience of anyone who doesn't believe the same as they do, and that drives some people away. Outside of the very few well moderated sub-reddits this is a serious problem. I wouldn't say it's enough to bring reddit down, yet, but it's pretty bad.
For some it might be important, that - I assume - OVH is in the EU and compose.io is in the US. Some of my clients care at least.

In almost all applications using Postgres (or virtually any other decent RDBMS system) is the right technical choice.

But (and this may be cultural) wearing my "where are we in 2 years" hat makes me push for Hadoop. The why is this - data and access to data is now trumping applications for business value. Where as I can run almost any of my applications on Postgres (almost) and many of them can co-habit on one server relatively happily, I cannot run all of them on it. This means that I will end up moving data from one of them to the others, but which?

Alternatively I will shift the data from the RDBMS to Hadoop (or another data warehouse solution if I am working in oil-and-gas-three-years-ago or a hedge-fund-or-something now) where the insight that I am being kicked for daily can be extracted by combining the data product of 20 systems.

Or we can use Hadoop as the core of the data system and feed RDBMS slaves (or use Impala sometimes). This has the benefit that the data is managed and clean (ho ho ho) on the core system and we can move at the speed of security checking and data understanding rather than the speed of budgets for writing and running data extracts.
