Those actually seem reasonable, despite the rhetorical way you've phrased them.

If Craigslist have sent you a letter by legally-certified mail telling you to stop scraping rent pricing information off their site, then it makes you both a jerk and a criminal if you keep doing it. Or you could be unintentionally denying their legitimate users service by overloading their servers.

Similarly, if they've sent you legally-certified mail telling you to stop stealing their information and reselling it for your hip new startup, then you're in copyright violation if you keep storing and reselling their data.

DEX throws these yellow pages on my porch every few months. If I decided to start scanning the pages to seed a competitor, they'd have every right to tell me to stop and sue me for copyright infringement. And yes, the 'temporary' copy in my camera's SD card would constitute copyright infringement. I don't see what it being a website has to do with anything; DEXes are just as public-facing as a website when they throw them on your porch.

Judges in the United States do a terrific job - especially at the higher courts. The one handling the Oracle vs. Google API case taught himself Java to better understand the case. I think it's far more likely that you're oversimplifying in a dishonest way.

Depends on the kind of music you play.
Miners only mine to gain more bitcoins. The market determines what bitcoins are. The market can decide to treat a different historical record with different rules as the ledger for bitcoins. This is much easier in proof-of-stake systems. You can't destroy a bad miner's mining equipment, but you can destroy a bad validator's deposit, which removes them from the system.

I disagree.

Most days when I get out of work the first thing I do is smoke with my Pax2 as I walk to my car.

I then drive home 'high'. I've done this most of my adult life. Smoking Pot and driving has zero negative effects on my driving. In fact, just as the article points out, I am more likely to drive more safely and take it easy.

Also, for what its worth, there are two types of strains - Sativa and Indica.

Indica is the type that knocks you out and makes you sit on the couch doing nothing; Sativa's, for me anyway, gives a focused, up buzz that makes me sharper and more alert.

I am a Sativa-only guy and for me smoking and then dealing with rush-hour traffic is how I prefer things. If you are saying people shouldn't smoke an indica heavy strain and then drive, I could see that argument but, in my experience, it's still safer than alcohol. But yes, generally, I would agree with that.

Sativa's though, no way, that just doesn't make sense based on my personal experience.
That's what I usually have; I think up high level solutions or, in rare cases, low level solutions for hard problems and I blurt out them into a recording. That works fine. The problem is; I really want to keep walking and not go home and spend hours behind a computer entering and debugging these issues.

Journalism =/= news reporting.

I think you're missing a lot about modern journalism if you think that journalists just cover "things that have just happened." There is also investigative journalism, profiles, editorials, etc.

Just go take a look at nytimes.com. What fraction of the stuff you see there is just reporting on things that have just happened? If you think the New York Times really would be better if it were pared down to only "news," I expect you're probably in a very small minority.

If somebody suggested a new preventative drug for a rare disease, and offered zero studies to back it up, and suggested everyone should be required to receive it, they would get laughed out of the room.

Yet we still make public safety decisions on that kind of flimsy thinking all the time.

Either new regulations improve outcomes or they don't. But we'll never find out by yelling at each other, or by taking a poll. Governments could conduct science-based regulation if they wanted to, especially when it comes to public health and safety -- areas where there is broad agreement on the desired outcomes, just disagreement on what will actually achieve those ends.

Do these new regulations really improve safety? That's a testable hypothesis.

(It seems unlikely that they do, given the low background rate of rideshare-driver crime. But I'm open to evidence.)

Philly is great for a startup! See: duckduckgo, RJMetrics, and Curalate. Good talent, good culture, relatively affordable (though the city is definitely getting more expensive as it gentrifies).

Also, there is stuff outside the city (country, Baltimore, DC, NJ, NYC, beaches), which is really tough to argue for Pittsburgh.
Likely in the developer previews that they release during WWDC then available to consumers in the fall.
Answering a question, why the decline in rents 1950-1960? Far as I know during WWII the population of the city swelled due to war time industry. After the war people moved to newly created suburbs in Santa Clara and the Peninsula.

I'm unsure but I think my grandparents moved to SF during the 1939-1940 WWII preseason. And by the late forties had moved away.

Swift's GC is in the form of pervasive reference counting for reference types with no automatic cycle detection. Though as we're demonstrating, calling this GC is contentious, it would be better if people weren't too lazy to type out "pervasive reference counting for reference types with no automatic cycle detection". :P

(For the record, I believe Chris Lattner is on the record as saying "yes, Swift has a runtime, let's not bother arguing that point" though I can't find the link, but I agree that Swift's runtime is less invasive than most other languages (e.g. Go).)
Thanks so much! I was so sad when they lost the recording :(
Your link doesn't say it's wrong; it argues semantics. The fact that unicorn-killer is a real thing real developers use for real apps should be evidence enough that Rails is a joke. Whether your app crashes after 4 minutes

I agree the "sufficiently large" scale argument is probably valid, for both developer attraction and component pricing.

But high margins without a monopoly is a tough course to chart indefinitely. I think if Apple is still the incredible player it is in another 30 years, it'll probably be because they've integrated cloud accounts + hardware + security to the extent user abandonment of their platform is almost unheard of.

> Do some workers and employers prefer a lower salary for more vacation days? sure. Just agree on that as part of a contract.

I've tried. It's never happened. I feel very cynical when I see all the oh-so-earnest discussions about "negotiating" after getting a job offer, because they all seem to assume that money is the only thing that matters, and that one can get more of it just by asking for it. Negotiating over a job offer has never gotten me jack squat, because American companies appear to be universally stuck on the idea that vacation time ought to be a function of seniority.

I get that this isn't "socially acceptable" and that it requires an account to access (accounts which can be created by the general public). But every time I think about it I fall back to the conclusion that if they didn't release it it would be fairly easy to collect anyways. So yes, this release made it easier, but at some level I see that as a good thing to make people aware of.

I see why this got so much discussion, it's a very grey area from my point of view.
Yes, so much. I spent 10 years in the space building websites, ecommerce, and other tools for professional photographers. The industry went through so much upheaval over the last few years.

I went to the main wedding and portrait photo conferences every year for 8 years. They sell everything from bags to straps, coaching to videos. I've seen Photoshop and Lightroom presets that cost more than Photoshop and Lightroom. Photography "workshops" in places like Mexico or Greece.

It's crazy.

There was an industry saying: "The best way to make money in photography is by selling things to photographesr"
Yes, the swift runtime does stuff like heap allocation & reference counting for classes, type introspection (including `as` casts), error handling, as well as generating instances of unspecialised generic types, and dispatching (dynamic) protocol methods (and other witnesses, like computed properties).

“Recording” of geometric visual hallucinations
I'm vaguely familiar with the co-op model through organic co-op grocery stores.

I actually like the notion of grocery stores being run this way, but members participate in a grocery co-op primarily so they can get less expensive organic groceries and even have a say in what the co-op carries. Really it's just buying in bulk with strangers.

But then I look at a corporation where members are ultimately voting on their best idea for making the corporation profitable, and presumably also mixing in ethics as well, that's where things could get hairy.

The liability in car insurance is virtually unlimited. Cars are very good at killing people and damaging property. You don't have to insure against small payouts (large excess gives you small premiums), and this is an area where the insurance companies want to upsell you.

The risk you're insuring is negligent or wilful bad driving, and risks inherent in the technology.

All of the above is true for self-driving cars, only with much-reduced negligent risk. The premiums will go down significantly, but the consumer motivation and the public policy interest to have insurance will remain. It may be assumed by the manufacturers for 100% self-driven cars, but insurance of outsized payouts is not something unique to the current iteration of the car industry.

> Driving is not a right, driving is not something everyone should be able to do. I think I would be a sub par driver, and so I don't drive. I pay more money to live in the city close to public transit. I don't say "it will probably be ok" and endanger other drivers, and this would be especially true if I actually needed pot to function.

While it is true that driving is not a right, this is an extremely narrow view. Especially in small municipalities (0-80000 people) transit is often poor and/or nonexistent, and downtown/commercial areas rarely have residences built or even nearby. Everyone relies on driving. In fact, the highschool I'm from offered free drivers ed, as a part of highschool.

Everyone has to drive and few people are sub-par drivers.

People drive impaired [alcohol, painkillers, anger, phones, passengers, weather, radio, stressors] all the time. That's not the point. The point is how much do we allow people to drive impaired. In the case of BAC, 0.05-0.08 is a common tolerance. This is not "zero," as people seem to think. Yep. You can have a beer (or two) and still be well within legal limits.

I'm not a libertarian by any means but we have very strict penalties already for people who kill others in vehicle accidents. I want to see INFORMED legislation not "i'm too scared to drive so nobody should ever do it unless they are of a perfectly clear mind and the road conditions are perfect."

Not everyone has the luxury of ordering an uber or hopping on a train for a few minutes to get home.

> but a blockchain-based service with hosted nodes is better than a federated service

...and a federated service is better than a handful of silos controlling the network.

So if the blockchain is supported by the mining of many small miners, it's a decentralized dream. But if there are a handful of miners validating the majority of transactions, then it ends up smelling a lot like the handful of silos situation. Not exactly the same but very similar.
> Federated/decentralized is not in Google's own interest, they make their money off of collecting data and controlling both the servers/clients makes that much easier.

I see what you mean but having a decentralized network where google can get a decent market share is still better than what they have now compared to facebook which is close to 0% market share if you don't count youtube. Think of it like gmail, thanks to imap and smtp being open and decentralized, Google was able to grab a sizable part of the market with gmail (they have 100M users now I think). So a decentralized social network with a google hosted endpoint would definitely be much more interesting than whatever they have right now. However, problem is that Facebook already won and also Google already tried this decentralized strategy with open social and google buzz and they were huge failures.

Also google suck at social mostly because the ceo doesn't care about social and is admittedly bad at it. Also Spaces is probably the worse name possible as it is really asking for MySpace jokes.

Are there any ways to directly measure impairment rather than using chemical trace detection as a proxy for the affect?

Maybe a driver could take a short impairment test on their cellphone or in car computer prior to starting their drive -- if they pass the test then they would have an argument against impairement should they become subsequently involved in an accident... If they fail the test and drive anyway then there's an even stronger argument that they made an irresponsible decision for which they must take responsibility.

There are all kinds of Mormons. Almost all of them I know drink caffeinated soda. There are definitely Mormons who don't, but I'd put them in a minority. It's basically people extrapolating from the dietary code, which disallows coffee and tea. They figure that must be because of caffeine, so they don't drink Coke either. (Mind you, I've never met a Mormon who doesn't eat chocolate, so I don't think their extrapolation is very logical, but who am I to tell anyone how to live their religion.)
