Thanks for the feedback!

To add to what you said, this is exactly the kind of situation where we design features that _may_ not scale well, but are remarkably useful in teaching contexts.

Having test cases inline with code is massively useful:

1. For students not used to thinking about their program being split over several files. If tests must be in their own file, then understanding multi-file programs (modules, essentially), becomes a curricular dependency of writing tests. That is a _lot_ of friction early on – think about an intro student who has a fuzzy notion of a "working directory" or IDE "workspace" in general. Even if the eventual goal is to address these concepts, they shouldn't have to come first just to write a unit test.

2. When live coding in front of a class. Having tests in a separate file is a huge pain because you pay either (a) the cognitive overhead of switching buffers, or (b) precious projector real-estate on having both open. Since live-coding programs that are less than 100 lines long is a major use case for Pyret, this is a big win.

As programs scale up, for example in Pyret's compiler or in larger assignments, we end up with a blend of test cases in inline where: blocks, with the majority in separate files in standalone check: blocks. So at scale, things turn into more traditional-looking separate suites.
That's a awful lot of words for what seems to be "because Parliament decides, not the majority of the people, and most of the MPs don't want to exit the EU."

Also, new cities' rules should be automated and software driven. See iot, decentralization technologies, etc.
If you have a narrow street, less people drive, and thus there is no issue getting an ambulance through. I see ambulances stuck in traffic on Manhattan avenues all the time (we should put grade-separated bus lanes on all of them, IMO, partially so that ambulances can always get through).
If you disable javascript, the site works and loads in ~50ms. You should consider deleting all/most of the JS :)
"I've been doorstep to doorstep from Charleston to my friend's apartment in Brooklyn Heights in under 3 hours"

How? Flight is 1 hour 50 minutes (according to Google), and a cab from JFK to BK heights is still 30 minutes if you hit zero traffic. Plus there is a security line to get through at the Charleston end of things.

Even if the universe aligns in your favor I'd be surprised if you hit under 3 hours door to door.
I think another way to phrase things would be to segregate types of traffic more.

Through-traffic should be invisible (underground).

Local traffic should be mostly segregated from foot traffic. If there's a block, the "front" of things should be entirely pedestrian / bike with vehicle access in the rear (the alley - but likely larger in this case).

‘Silicon Valley’ Season 3 Finale
When heads has probability p the probability for any n-length sequence of all heads is p^n. For p between 0 and 1 this vanishes as n goes to infinity.

The reason is that the conjunction of some events is always less (than or equal to) probable than the events themselves. This should make intuitive sense as the middle bit of a Venn diagram. Even more so for a conjunction of events with a conjunction of events. When taken to the infinite limit you tend to end up with the conjunction having probability 0 or 1.
Just for your clarity, I downvoted the generic slur that you kicked things off with.
The telemetry was in the original preview release of the tools with RC2. It can be turned off and I believe it won't be in the final stable CLI tools release, but that may change.

It's the same with VS and VS Code (and Atom too). There has been a move from opt-in (for older versions of VS) to opt-out. Although I do still see connections to MS domains with all the customer experience stuff turned off.

This (and Andreessen's article) is quite insightful of knowing when you're on the right track or not, but it's more like a "you know it when you see it" kind of advice that is not very helpful in terms of how to get there, or how to design a process that allows you to methodically identify and jump into these market opportunities. Maybe a second article could dive more into that.
Some specific names of the cities you had in mind would be really helpful.
Im glad this judgement was passed.

It also makes me sad.

> BTW a basic understanding of coherence might lead one to doubt the claims about lack of scalability. When you hit the cache, you know that you own the data so it's fast. When you miss the cache, it's a very slow operation anyway, the overhead of checking whether to fetch the data from external memory or another cache can't be that bad. And if data travels a lot from one cache to another because of true or false sharing, that's the fault of the code doing that. Coherence is not supposed to make sharing blindingly fast, just to make it correct, and to make false sharing correct as well.

The problem isn't so much that missing the cache is slow, but rather how do you make a processor know that it has to look the data value up in another cache instead of main memory? The two main options are either to basically broadcast every request to every cache it might be in, or to store in main memory which cache it's in--you have a design tradeoff between high interconnect traffic or high memory metadata usage.
When you have a city as dense as Paris, you can access the whole city in 30 minutes using transportation. That's more people, offices, cafes, museums and parks that sprawling city will fit into two hours car commute radius.
"How can we make rules and regulations that are comprehensive while also being easily understandable? Can we fit all rules for the city in 100 pages of text?"

If you give arbitrary power to those who enforce the rules, sure, they can fit in 100 pages. If you don't value predictability and consistency of enforcement, sure, they can fit in 100 pages. In fact, the rules can fit onto one page. The Ten Commandments are pretty short.

However, if you want to have a predictable body of law administered fairly, it's going to take a lot more than 100 pages. Even the Ten Commandments aren't that simple when it's time for practical application. You can simply decide on a case-by-case basis and not write down what you do, and then it will fit in 100 pages. But if you give notice to others about what your decisions are, and you are bound by previous decisions...well, that sounds a lot like a common-law system. Decisions in such a system are going to exceed 100 pages.

These things aren't as simple as it seems...there are good reasons why the Supreme Court once considered what it meant to "use" a firearm.

I’ve never seen this. Partly it may be A/B testing and I was never in the B group, but I think people are closing dialog boxes without thinking enough about how they’re closing them, and accidentally agreeing to upgrade.
Cars are also super space-wasters. They do nothing but sit for 80-90% of the time (which is one reason why car sharing is making more sense to people). In a lot of cities, especially newer ones built out since WW2, you will find a large percentage of space dedicated to parking lots. Not even necessarily parking structures (which cost a lot more per car) but just free to park flat lots, with nothing going on there.
Not at an enterprise level. The support was experimental.
Is there a provider-agnostic (at least between AWS/GCP) option out there to do something similar?

On GCP, I'd like to convert running instances/existing resources to a Deployment Manager profile. Has anyone written a provider-agnostic descriptive language (maybe Hashicorp's Terraform works for this?) that can be translated to CloudFormation or Deployment Manager? (This seems like something Bitnami must have internally...)
Of course cars have a place too. Having two smallish children, cars are a great way for my family to get around for many things. But it's nice when they are one option among many, and not set on a pedestal as the only one.

For instance, when we lived in Padova: we'd ride bikes around the neighborhood when the weather was good. I'd walk to get groceries. My wife and I often rode bikes downtown for 'date night'. We'd take the car to do larger shopping trips on occasion, or to do things further from town. We'd take the family downtown on public transportation. So it was a 'right tool for the job' situation.

I don't think we really need any fancy, expensive technical solutions like burying cars in tunnels - just making streets a bit slower, and safer for bikes and pedestrians would be a great start.
They do, we get plenty of good food here. It's just better in SF Chinatown.
I am forwarding all this feedback to engineering, we're on it :) Thanks for diagnosing potential causes!
This reminds me of observations on the rise of nationalism.

Once newspapers became large scale phenomena and states began building large bureaucracies, the reality that most people in most areas will only learn one (natural) language became a very unifying (and dividing) dynamic.

Computer science education idealists imagine a world built by the best students, those who finish the entire course of study they set out. It indeed seems logic that the world is shaped by the great mass of people who at the minimum useful level.

> Easy access right of way for utilities, most cities bury everything which is silly, there should be an easily accessed common right of way so that fiber, water sewer etc. can be easily accessed for upgrades or repair without having to dig up the streets.

For cable/fiber/telephone/power, overhead was common, though burying is replacing it.

But what's the alternative to burying for water and sewer? I suppose in principle you could go overhead with that, too, but that seems...unappealing in a wide number of reasons.

Never. Microsoft has lost my trust forever with these issues.
Problem with moving startups is that they are more fragile, and need every edge to beat out their peers. So if two startups are competing, and startup A is in the middle of nowhere, and startup B is connected to a pool of talent, advice, potential early customers, early adopters, and investors, then startup B has a huge advantage. That was PG's main reasoning for why YC startups should all move to the valley, right?

That said -- perhaps you guys have the brand and connections now where you could nurture the talent/advice/investment ecosystem in an entirely new location. If so, that could be a really great thing.
Not really. Look at Facebook.
Individually owned cars--and the infrastructure needed to support them--are a very inefficient mode of transportation, even in the use-cases that you mention. Plenty of people with children and elderly live in New York city which has among the lowest levels of car ownership in the nation.

Every other method of high-density transportation is also a "human amplifier" and vastly more efficient.

"Built for people" means that you aren't forced to have a car to live in a location. There are plenty of demographics that would prefer to not have a car if they could.

Removing the need for car ownership would be big step forward and communities that have this property are highly sought-after.

No one's going to take your car away (see my other answer, above/below). It's more a matter of making it legal to construct neighborhoods where it is not nearly mandatory to have one to live.

Many cities absolutely do prioritize cars over people - huge roads that are unsafe for other users, mandatory parking requirements, and tons and tons of neighborhoods that are predicated on the idea of using a car for pretty much all transportation.
Bug? Sounds like a feature to me.
This is interestingly not exactly so. Large cities have disproportionally higher share of population. Compare these areas with equal population in the US: http://www.businessinsider.com/half-of-the-united-states-liv...

I installed Windows 10, and then discovered that the third-party driver that I needed for work was not compatible. Namely, the Roland REAC Driver.

That driver acts as a network protocol that you attach to a particular network adapter, so when I upgraded, the adapter showed up as having no protocols. Totally Roland’s fault, waiting until the final release of Windows 10 before even starting to work on upgrading their drivers, but Microsoft also gets some blame for thinking that only Microsoft network protocols matter.

The rollback worked, so no lasting harm that I’ve noticed, yet.
I choose to ignore this post so five weeks from now I can write an outraged "Microsoft is TRACKING YOU" article on Medium that will garner me praise and upvotes.
I disagree. If you site the city in the US, you can use the existing governance models. Most of the what YC wants to do can be done with local zoning ordinances (tied together with restricted deeds or community lands trusts/co-ops), with the populace (hypothetically made up of citizens who are conducive to this experiment) voting at the local city government level.

This is not new territory. They're building a master planned community (with what you might consider an HOA on steroids), and based on their requirements, I think they going to do an incredible job compared to your average real estate developer.

Flow would also vary the cost of parking spaces according to demand. On weekends, prices might drop in business areas while they climb near music venues. Sidewalk claims this would increase income from parking by 10%.

However, Pozdnoukhov says that variable pricing is far from proven. “A pilot project in San Francisco was not very well received,” he says. “If Sidewalk can show value to drivers, it could be a different game, but that’s easier said than done.”

Forget enterprise time, it's about to be two major versions old in major version time, once v5 is official. Not sure what happened to v3 and v4, I think Elastic skipped them to get all of their products aligned to the same version.

Elastic says they don't backport fixes either, so in this case, it might be a good idea to stay near the leading edge of the release cycle.
Cars in tunnels is a great idea, just like the subway: burry it so as to not impact life on the surface.

Unfortunately, it is very expensive to operate that way. The easiest tunnels to build are the ones Paris did for their subway a century ago: dig up the soft limestone under the street, lay tracks, close it up. But you still need to deal with ventilation (especially for non-electric cars), fire suppressant, evacuation, flooding and general maintenance. In the best-case scenario, tunnels are just very expensive.

Then there are places like Atlanta (sitting on granite) or San Francisco (in a fault zone) where things get a lot more complicated.

A couple of tips for your ruleset:

* disable first-party plugins (flash, PDF)

* enable first-party "other" (html5 video, audio)

Edit: oops, just noticed you accept first-party everything. Still, disabling plugins should prevent a wide class of exploits (see recent Chrome PDF vulnerability).

I would replace your use of "democracy" with "unfettered capitalism". Allowing the rich and powerful to continuously claim a larger share of the economic pie pits the rest against each other for scraps.

I'm not sure the problem is those "smug liberals," but rather the conservative factions in Britain and abroad who would rather perpetuate a humanity at war with itself for their own profits rather than accept a slightly lower standard of living in return for a stable and satisfied populace which sees the greedy mismanagement of the global elite and concludes the only people they can trust are dangerous demagogues who would sooner smash a system to the ground than attempt to fix what the poor and angry perceive as poverty and hopelessness by design.
