Nah, when it's just one upper-middle-class you by yourself (how do you "begin to" move somewhere, anyway? either you move or you don't, the 'beginning' of moving is invisible to anyone but yourself), local people are confused or bemused or pleased or at most slightly annoyed. When a couple friends follow, and then all your peers follow because it seems safe and/or exciting now, and the people who lived there before realize that the neighborhood is finally getting safer and more amenities but _they aren't for them_, the amenities are things they still can't afford and the safer neighborhood is one they soon won't be able to afford -- that's when they start throwing rocks. Mostly metaphorically so far, but I'd expect literal physical rock throwing to pick up.

Well with Windows 8 and now 10, MS is tarnishing their brand, albeit it in different ways. The uncertainty over what MS does and inability to shut it off (apparently updates undo settings?) is why I still don't use W10. :\

FLT is a poor example. Very little depended on it, and if it weren't for its colorful history, it wouldn't ever have gotten the exposure it did.

<Facebook says explicitly on its help pages that it doesn’t record conversations, but that it does use the audio to identify what is happening around the phone.>

Well, that's comforting.

<Turning off the microphone in a phone’s settings is relatively easy>

Really? Turning off the mic for Facebook (or even globally to apps) without making it useless is "relatively easy?" Somebody, please point out to me this feature on Android.

You want enough that you have a reasonable chance of making adaptations in your lifestyle if you lost your job. "Adaptations" includes finding a new job, downsizing to a smaller home or apartment, or moving to a new metropolitan area.

3 months is taking a pretty big risk. If you're in your mid-20s, you've never lived through a recession. It is possible to lose your job concurrently with the stock market losing 50% of its value concurrently with nobody in your industry hiring for 6-12 months (indeed, that number is often picked so that you can ride out the worst of a recession). If you have other assets and no debt, you at least won't be penniless and on the street, but you can be forced to sell stocks & mutual funds at fire-sale prices and wipe out much of your net worth if a downturn happens. Or you may end up having to take a job that sets you back a couple years in career progression rather than being able to wait for the right opportunity to come around.
The release cycle just started. It's basically a weekly snapshot with a different name, but we've moved into "code slush" (prelude to "code freeze") so from now on there should theoretically be more bug fixes and fewer new features.

A lock-free self-balancing binary tree (e.g. RedBlack or AVL) would be awesome. But AFAIK that's not possible using commodity hardware. In general, there aren't many places where you can use a regular binary tree when using externally-sourced data because it opens you up to computational complexity attacks. You could using something like SipHash to securely randomize keys, but then it won't be nearly as fast. And of outside of batch processing, who uses a binary tree without deletions?

The only lock-free data structure that is practical is a queue. And that's because a lock-free queue is really the only data structure that doesn't require you to re-architect your entire application stack according to the limitations of the lock-free data structure. And if you're going to re-architect your application, better to re-architect it around message passing, which mostly obviates the need for lock-free data structures, with queues, again, being the obvious exception.

But it's comparatively trivial to implement a lock-free queue using intrinsics, assuming it's a hot-spot in your application. Library dependencies are extremely costly in terms of the long-term maintenance of software projects. Supplying a lock-free queue in a single C file (or header) using common compiler intrinsics, OTOH, and which automagically can be dropped into most existing projects, might be much more useful.
Or its in a non-productive asset like being parked in vacant real estate in a world city or any number of other non-productive assets that remove it from circulation.
The point is you want to be able to program on the board rather than having it be useless without attaching it to a PC. For that you need both IO and an onboard compiler or interpreter.

MicroPython is right out; it would almost fit Lua, but as it is it looks like your only option for independent development would be Forth.
That looks helpful. In case you want something shorter to look through here's a very concise set of notes I took for myself when I first played with TF:

There are plenty of 'dysfunctional' places just like SF. Plenty of cities have limited area to expand into. For example, Boulder local gov owns a ring of land around the city, making it impossible to expand outwards (or upwards).

That is an excellent and counterintuitive but logically sound market-response explanation for the behavior.

I'm trying to think of how Google can attempt remedying this, with the more obvious options being to either increase the non-HTTPS search penalty, or perhaps to buy up some of the ad stock itself.
I started this extension a few weeks ago while I was working on my dissertation proposal. As my document grew, I thought the existing plugin [1] was not able to send the entire document to AfterTheDeadline. I also ran into issues where I didn't have Internet access, but still needed my document checked. I decided to write my own plugin to fit my needs. It's still in the early development stages, but after the discussion [2] today on the original plugin, I thought I'd release my attempt. Let me know what you think!

The biggest consideration in this is the NAND bus loading on the controller. Typically a controller has 4-16 NAND buses. Each bus is about 16 IO pins (8-bit bus plus control signals) Each bus can drive 8 NAND die at full speed. By lowering the speed, you can drive 16 NAND die. With more NAND buses at high speed you have to worry about power routing and signal integrity issues so there is a limit to this. Typically each NAND package has 4-8 NAND die inside it so commonly you will see one NAND package per channel. Also you need to scale the DRAM with NAND capacity usually linearly. What happens in the end is the total number of channels is fixed by the number of die per channel varies from 2-8 dies. With each generation, the capacity of a single die increases. To increase beyond this, you general reduce the clock speed on the NAND bus which explains why the higher capacity SSD have slightly slower performance.

There has been some effort to switch NAND to serial protocol to lower IO count but it hasn't caught on. What Samsung is doing with multi die packages is very common (one company I worked for did it 10 years ago) but there are concerns with signal integrity and thermal limits to consider. It will generally have slower performance than the full models or use power throttling to keep within limits (good for burst workloads.)
Exactly. I tell them the same thing. A good example is how the various media and politicians describe our system to public vs what Citigroup's analysts secretly described to rich investors:

http://politicalgates.blogspot.com/2011/12/citigroup-plutono...

Secret got out and is quite the confirmation of what many suspected. Of course, we rarely get info that good. So, have to read the same publications as the titan's of industry do for their investments to try to reverse engineer it out so to speak.
There's also more to Spacy than just dependency parsing as well, but that's a big part of it.

I would certainly hope there's more to FoxLab, but I have literally seen this demo before.

I have also been around the block enough times to know that putting some ill fitting duct tape around a bunch of other libraries that do all the work to make a quick buck in a hot space is a very common trick as well.
Swedish Forest-Inspired Office with an Interactive Floor That Mimics a Stream
The shipbreaking process is pretty strange. It's really labor-intensive. It looks dangerous. It looks like large chunks could even get lost in the beach. Does the company even legitimately own the beach?

Of course, due to labor cost and environmental law and so many other things, we can't replicate that method in a first-world nation. I wonder if we could automate it. I think the ships are mostly just going to be melted down. That should be easy: put a dry dock next to a really big furnace that can consume the whole ship in one go. NOM NOM NOM!
That theory is actually pretty challenged. Makes me want to find time to enhance the wikipedia article, but it would be a lot of work.

Among critiques are that the !Kung San people the study of which is at the basis of this theory _weren't_ actually exclusively (or possibly even primarily) engaging in hunting and gathering as economic activity at the time the anthropologists studied them, but those anthropologists just chose to leave out the wage labor as "atypical". And that the !Kung San at that period of history actually were a regional underclass -- if they didn't work much, that's because they didn't have many options, and is similar to the extremely poor in any society. See Edwin Wilmsen, _Land Filled with Flies: A Political Economy of the Kalahari_

That's just a start.

But anyway, I agree with you that it's ridiculous to think that people can't be happy unless extorted to work for others at threat of starvation.
including the trillion dollars the top 5 firms are holding offshore?
Let alone a 'science'.
Your response is phrased in the form of a rebuttal, but I think I agree with everything you are saying, so far as I understand it, which leaves me to wonder if I didn't explain myself clearly.

I believe that the concept of "deserving" or "undeserving" poverty is not just unhelpful but actually misleading, and creates a great deal of unnecessary confusion. It is more useful to ignore the personal details and look at the systems. We can't change other people; we can rarely change ourselves; but we can certainly change systems, because they are human creations in the first place. So that's how we should approach poverty.

I am in favor of basic income as an improvement on and replacement for other forms of social support, for a variety of reasons: it seems like a more efficient way to move money around, it seems like a more effective way to distribute resources to people in need of them, and it seems overall like a more egalitarian, less judgemental way of dealing with a whole complex of problems which currently create a great deal of suffering. It is simple enough to feel like good engineering. It is fair enough to feel sustainable. It is non-ideological enough that I feel reasonably sure it would be difficult to use it as a mechanism of social control against weirdo outliers, like I am, but who aren't fortunate enough to have access to the same resources I do.

By "option to fuck up" I mean simply the freedom to do something other than mainstream opinion thinks you should. In these examples, people clearly believe it would be a bad idea for someone begging on the street to use the money they earn to buy alcohol. Well, on average, that's probably true. But just because someone is in a desperate way, I don't believe that gives me (or you, or anyone) the right to tell them what choices they should make. It's still their life. If I am willing to hand the guy on the street corner my spare $5, I have to be willing to accept that he's going to do whatever he thinks best with that money. If I can't be happy with that I shouldn't give him the money. But I believe that each person generally is the best judge of what is best for themself; I'd like it if the society around me would leave me free to make my own choices, not because I'm successful enough not to have to beg for money on the street, but because that's how I think we should all treat each other all the time, regardless of circumstances.
The Kelmans-Seymour conjecture II: 2-vertices in K−4
UK/US/AU/NZ have weekly salaries, welfare, rent and it works pretty fine
I'll take your bait: I do think 51% of all income tax is too little for the top 3% of earners, because they are paid such a large piece of the pie; you're looking at it in terms of number of people paying tax and not percentage of total income made.

Think of it this way: "The top 10% (in my country) pay 74% of all taxes," really translates to "This group makes 90% of all income and but only pays 74% of taxes."

That means that those who make 10% of the total income (again, in my country) pay 26% of taxes. It's not the top that are hurting because they're paying tax in excess of their means, they're getting off lightly.
You are not the typical user. (I say this with awe, not disrespect).
Modelling a Basic Income with Python and Monte Carlo Simulation (2013)
> I personally prefer keeping the existing means-tested programs but counting UBI as income when considering eligibility, such that with growing UBI [0] you eventually reach the point where the income floor is above the eligibility level for the means-tested programs, allowing them to be discontinued.

It might be better to directly subtract the benefits from any such program from the UBI. Then the only people who will even bother signing up for the other programs are the people whose total benefits from the existing programs exceed the UBI, which should be almost nobody. Then having demonstrated that fact in practice, those programs can be discontinued for lack of any real use and the savings can be used to provide slightly more UBI.
Great, so the banks can loan more money to people who can't afford anything.

You're right. It's easy to be all moral and ethical when you don't face those kinds of challenges. I'll even grant you that I have failed a few moral and ethical challenges while living in my safe little world.

I own that.

And I have zero sympathy for those bastards. They made a choice to steal and then a further choice to release that information for others to do more harm and to try and make money while doing it.

Marx got a lot of things wrong but he was spot on in his descriptions of capitalism.
I think there ought to be two different classes of BI proposals. One would be a cash disbursement, like an actual paycheck. The other would be a single, orchestrated way to get food and housing -- basically a single, unifies program that provides what the first form of BI would buy. I think which one you should support largely depends on whether or not you can trust people. If you can, the first BI alone would be sufficient. If not, the second form of BI would be the only practical option, unless you consider a drastic enlargement of traditional welfare without any oversight BI, but to me that's absolutely ludicrous. Additionally, ignoring other, more complicated problems like mental health, I believe that the first form of BI is sufficient and that a very, very small portion of the population would actually blow the money and perhaps they could be absorbed by the prison system, where they would get a roof over their heads, daily meal, practical job training, and even real experience they can take with them (of course they would be free to leave at will).

I'll throw a couple. I like Indeed's UX but there's always something to improve.

-Indeed isn't responsive, SimplyHired is. This isn't just a mobile thing, I like to snap two windows side by side on one monitor when using these sites. Indeed forces horizontal scroll at like 940px which is pretty huge. The leftmost and rightmost columns could squeeze a lot more than they do, and they could switch to something minimal below that point.

-Remember the Google SERP redesign, when they removed the underlines? SimplyHired looks a bit like the old version, and Indeed looks like the current version. The old one was better. Easier to scan. Less wasted space.

-"My Recent Searches" pushes down the filters, but it's basically a rehash of the information in the filters. Also, if you uncheck a salary range, and check another one, the Recent Searches ends up showing you that you looked at salary-unspecified jobs in that town. So it's wasting space to remind me of a search that:

A) Isn't useful

B) Is already shown up in the search bar

C) I never actually looked at (my browser did, I didn't)
