Ugh, it's kind of painful to read an article that looks like it was literally copied out of a magazine a few decades ago and just had the subject changed.

3D printers are going through the technology hype cycle, just like other things such as 2D printers, computers, cars, etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hype_cycle

It passed the peak, where everyone's imagination runs away with them, and it's headed into the trough. So, plotting it against the curve by eye, I'd say in about 6 years we should be hitting the plateau.

Bingo. Any time powerful people advocate for anything on moralistic grounds (like "make the world safe for democracy"), my immediate reaction is to ask "if these people get their way, what else do they get out of it?"

The idea of slack versus high efficiency reminds me of this short piece about queuing theory:

The homeowners still, honestly. The homeowners don't pay higher taxes if their roads require more repairs. If anything, higher traffic on roads that frequently need repairs means lower property values, thus lower property taxes for those same homeowners.

Anyway, point being the homeowners did not buy that road. Previous generations of taxpayers paid for the construction of most roads, and the current generations of taxpayers are paying upkeep on all muni roads, not just the ones they live on.

Even if I agreed with you, most of the people taking residential detours are probably still local...which means they, too, paid for the roads!
How Data Science Helps Marketing
But it is a position that we apply all the time in a complex society. We have speed limits which we enforce because higher speeds could lead to an accident. We have building codes because shoddy construction practices could lead to a fire. We have vaccination requirements because a lack of them could lead to an outbreak.

These are all laws meant to protect us from each other. I suppose you could argue with any of these on principle, but it's a pretty standard part of our social contract now.

I would personally argue that the society we live in has reached a level where we are incapable of being fully informed about all the risks, requirements and possibilities. We have to own cars to buy groceries, go to work and raise our kids because neighborhood grocery stores and schools are no more. We can't all be expected to be experts on HVAC and electrical because we've spent the totality of our existence in highly specialized training for whatever it is we do. We live in an incredibly close quarters society, and history has shown us that vaccinations are almost a must.

Making laws based on what could happen just seems like common sense given these realities.
I would rather live in a western democracy where speech is considered free until it is curbed, instead of a Muslim theocracy or Asian dictatorship where speech is forbidden until it is permitted.

Tragic. I, personally, could not sit idly by and watch, or record, anyone suffering without attempting to assist. Consequences be damned, I would hope for the same assistance if I were injured & needing aid.

This is something I have spent a lot of time contemplating lately as I watch people texting while operating multi-ton vehicles at any speed, let alone at 80mph(130kmh)down the highway. I have witnessed a notable increase in single vehicle rollovers under optimum driving conditions on the US highway system in the last +/- two years. Thankfully, I have yet to arrive before the 1st responders but if I ever do, I will forgo the "they brought it upon themselves" judgement and assist my fellow man/woman, if need be. Yet, I still wonder, how many could have been avoided if distracted driving laws already on the books were enforced?
But in its general form, its about the American ideal of the free sharing of ideas in public. That's entirely independent of Constitutional arguments. We can reasonably argue that Facebook is being fundamentally UnAmerican in their behavior, and should be censured for it.

With your cracking setup I can definitely see the attraction of building multiple cheaper boxes rather than one larger one. This is definitely something I need to spend more time researching (which i'd intended)

I'm using AWS at the moment - I fire up spot instances but have noticed that there has been a lot of demand recently and prices spike a lot. I've written some basic scripts to bring instances back up, continue tasks, send jobs, shutdown on complete, etc. I'm spending a lot on AWS at the moment which is why i'm looking at putting a new rig together (my old rig broke down a year ago and is 6+ years old)

In a country of 1 billion+ people you'll always get these stories.

Since as we know, we get in them in the west as well, the media will drum up, child left to die by road.

When we all know the drivers just didn't seem them or didn't know what happened. But that's a crappy story.

People help people in obvious severe immediate need and take risks doing it. It's human nature.

They get bystanders effect and sometimes they won't know they are in severe immediate need (A sleeping homeless person vs someone unconscious) but they don't ignore them because they will be sued.

Blaming people because of bystanders effect is poor form.

I'm not sure if a less true statement has ever been uttered. My guess is no.
It's a function that takes a String and returns a new function which takes a String and returns a String. All functions in Haskell/Elm are arity 1.

So in order to construct functions that accept more than one argument, you actually return successive functions that apply successive arguments, known as currying.

It might be hard to explain, but the process and odds of an American/Westerner getting a Russian or a Chinese or an Indian visa are not quite the same as the other way around.

But again, to truly understand one needs to be a non-Westerner.
I think we need a better reference these days because no-one has been added to gitmo in eight years and certainly not any US citizen (that we know of, who knows for sure?)

However I don't think there are even examples of terrorists without trials in supermax? Again that we know of, because we tend to not find out these things until someone gives up their own freedom to leak out what is really going on years later.

I do know there are people in jail, not prison, without trial for threatening schools. That's as close as we get to prison-for-speech?

Microsoft has been doing really good concerning open source and developers recently. ASP.NET Core, .NET Core, VSCode, a free Visual Studio Community, etc. Note that I'm no MS fan, these are just facts.
Also, the aim of VSCode is not to replace vim, obviously. How do you put a "web rendered" editor in a terminal anyway?
Also, as a vim user, I can say that using vim in a GUI is fine nowadays, Gvim works really well on Windows fyi, has good font rendering, same on OS X (MacVim). Don't limit yourself to the terminal if you're in a GUI environment such as Windows...
The Facebook Fallacy – Why Facebook Would Fail (2012)
It happens all the time. There's some big event, it gets a lot of attention, the event never goes anywhere but people lose interest and move on. MH370 was never found but the coverage faded away.

My brother and sister-in-law were being driven to the airport to come home (to Cupertino) by his Father-in-law, at 2 in the morning. He drove at high speed, ignoring traffic lights and signs. They were alarmed; he was unconcerned. "Nobody is about this time in the night; we're perfectly safe!" So there's some kind of mass insanity going on in India for sure.
It seems like one of the problem is that the place "is not a place of honor".

In modern civilization memorials and/or historically significant places are continuously safeguarded and most importantly remembered.

Yes they can be targets of attacks but they get rebuilt. That is their significance is remembered and protected. It seems like a bad idea to make a dangerous place forgettable.

So instead of hiding I propose a solution might be an extremely conspicuous stone like edifice built on top of the land with information about what is underneath etched in stone (I am assuming the land above is tolerable). Maybe even make it look nice so you know it gets protected. It could even become a cultural landmark.

What's new in Deveo 3.10?
Indeed I prefer that kind of "rolling" development.
It's pretty simple. NIMBY stands for "not in my backyard." The NIMBY bit of the complaint is "I don't want people driving down my street."

My concern about the traffic isn't NIMBY in nature because I don't care whether anyone drives down the street as long as they do it safely. So rather than "not in my backyard," it's "in my backyard is fine as long as you do it safely."

It isn't arduous to use the road, any redirected traffic is going back to the main streets meant to handle it, and jet fuel can and did melt those steel beams--not the three-way stop on my street.
To confirm what other comments have expressed, most jobs aren't as much fun as working on your own projects. Maybe you knew that but you feel that this job goes over and above standard levels of banality. Fair enough.

The main thing I'd add is that I hope the alternative you're considering is a paid research assistantship funded by a grant, which should be no problem for such a famous professor to organize. It's easy as a student to be convinced that your professor's research is the next big thing, but funding is a reasonable proxy for whether anyone else thinks so. Otherwise, it's quite possible to do a lot of great innovative and interesting research that is met with indifference by future employers and academics because you've misjudged the way things are going due to spending too much time on your own.
It has improved dramatically since then. I'm not saying it's perfect, but I think you should give it another shot instead of complaining about how bad it used to be.
This makes me wonder whether it would be worthwhile to design languages with no garbage collection or manual deallocation. Non-stack memory can be allocated but never freed, and memory exhaustion would be fatal.

We might be at the point where this is an acceptable simplification for very fine grained processes and services. Has anyone explored this model?

First, this isn't just about government censorship. It might be legal to draw Muhammed cartoons in Western countries, but everyone's afraid to do it because of what some hothead might do in revenge. We have some groups deciding to impose censorship on the wider community by threat of violence, no-platforming, etc, with the same result as if the government had done it. If the outcome is the same (censorship and fear of free discussion) how is this not related to freedom of speech? And if these groups are powerful enough to over-ride the law and impose their will on everyone else, doesn't that make them somewhat government-like in themselves?

Second, the fact single private corporations can make decisions with a large impact on what can be said "in public" (ie, these days, on the internet) is problematic in itself. There is no "public space" online, and our civil laws aren't adapted to that. But that's also the same old problem the socialists identified with "freedom of the press": it applies to those with a printing press, and nobody else.
I don't think this is controversial at all. If someone decides to spraypaint a racial slur on my car, am I denying them free speech by cleaning it off? Anyone is free to make their own Diaspora or GNU Social, but the idea that any kind of editing of user submissions to your website is unethical suppression of free speech could have some really bad consequences.

I don't understand why this is "curious." It's pretty common to have different views on what government should do versus what private individuals should do. For example, I don't think the government should endorse any religion, but I think it's fine for private individuals to do so.
Well again, not to defend the religion, but they tend to go after people, not just the religion, and yes those people get killed.

I'm glad this is being brought up now since people assume even jobs in software development and IT require a degree. I won't say that I don't benefit from my CS degree but I think for most jobs that are often labeled as IT it's better in my opinion to hire someone fresh out of high school or community college. It's not so much the work is 'beneath' me but that it's often too simple. So I'll just write up a feature in an app within a week and wind up twiddling my thumbs for the rest of the week. Honestly, most of the work out there should be given to those people who are underqualified to expand their resume and add value to their knowledge over mine.

> But it is a bias that we apply all the time in a complex society. We have speed limits which we enforce because higher speeds could lead to an accident.

Yes - but we also don't have an amendment which says:

"Congress shall make no law abridging my right to drive fast"

Preservation of free-speech is specially important in a way that the speed-limit on the highway is not. So I would say these aren't analogous applications of bias.

You could also go further e.g. "I would personally argue that the society we live in has reached a level where we are incapable of being fully informed about all the risks, requirements and possibilities. Anti-vaccination speech should be outlawed, the practicants of such speech are a menace to public health, their children and others children."

Putting speech into the category of acceptable bias without effect, is a dangerous path..

So I would have to use two different editors, customize both, get used to both? That doesn't make sense to me (to be fair, mostly because I rarely have the need for IDE). But if I had, why use a lightweight IDE instead of a "full" one (say Visual Studio, JetBrains *, ...)?
