Thank you. Infinite scroll sucks.
If you eliminate all the server issues, the game isn't "objectively bad".

In fact, I quite enjoy it. It's a little simple for the first few levels, but that's how Pokemon games have always been!

Once you level up your character, you'll start getting harder Pokemon to catch and you can start trying to take and hold gyms. And you'll get enough candies to start upgrading and evolving your Pokemon as well.

To put it plainly, this is the first mobile game in years to get me really excited about getting out there and doing things. Ingress was okay for a while, but never amazing. Zombies Run! had issues that I never got over, and I just quit... And it wasn't really compelling anyhow.

But this? My wife and I repaired the tires on our bikes after years of saying we'd do that, and we've been on multiple bike rides already. I'm quite looking forward to continuing that trend, and without the Pokemon aspect, I know it wouldn't happen as often, if at all.

So no, it's not "objectively bad". It's quite clearly compelling and enjoyable for a lot of people, just maybe not for you. And that's perfectly okay on all accounts.

I'm ethnically Indian, and grew up in London. So I'm used to having good Indian food both at home and in restaurants.

I recently visited Dublin for the first time, and picked an Indian restaurant based on Yelp ratings/reviews. I've never eaten worse Indian food than I did that day.

I don't believe that the restaurant operators are unable to make OK food. They were Indian themselves. Perhaps they had to change their flavours to adapt to local palates, and their ingredients due to economic pressure?

B) he is reacting specifically to the term front-running which has a known technical definition in trading and cannot happen the way you describe (I've said elsewhere I believe the term has been appropriated and redefined and am not willing to fight that anymore, maybe he is).

Exactly - this is a pretty simple part, without fine details that would actually test an expensive printer.

Its like comparing how Facebook or Word works on a netbook vs a top-end desktop.

And I'd say furthermore, although not knowing how the part is used - with such flat features and 90-degree corners, probably the best way to make this would be sheet metal, which with a waterjet cutter, press break, and spot welder could be produced in 1/100th the time and cost.

The best thing you can do is to go to a makerspace near were you live. You will learn so much just by osmosis with the people that know just being around and looking.

Then you need a project that you want to do and ask those guys how you can get there. You will need to learn some CAD, some mathematical concept and you will get something.

Then you print your pieces using their printers. If at this point you enjoy it, you will want to have your own 3d printer. The guys will help you with this too.

For example I am part of Clone Wars RepRap, an Spanish language group. We are more than 5000 people. We help each other a lot. I am also part of German,and Austrian groups.

Without the social environment, buying a printer yourself you will probably find it too hard, specially at first.

Just a side note I leave here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12069450
I'd imagine people will stay as they did with the original Pokemon. To this day, they are still adding more and more Pokemon. I'd expect they'd treat this game in a similar fashion. They'll probably introduce trading (already confirmed), a battling system amongst peers, side objectives, events (battle Mewtwo) as we saw in the commerical, etc.
Glad you agree.
The big, big, big problem in Italy are pensions. Pension contributions eat 33.4%, before taxes, and this make our companies uncompetitive and lots of the best workers leave. Devaluation would allow to deflate pensions, and make our labor more competitive. Not without lots of other problems, but right now there is practically nothing we can do.

Just like that the symptoms supposedly caused by the "Zika virus" is more likely to be a result from food by contaminated by pesticides/herbicides.

The last line of the article is most telling indeed:

> "Under no circumstances should the general public be informed."

This is the main problem. We would all be much more selective when it comes to our food if we knew how flaky the quality is. But instead we trust the gov't in controlling the food supply; which the quote shows we should not be doing.
Irradiation using the gamma radiation emitted from the decay of 60-Co isotopes is still a standard method for e.g. sterilizing medical implants.

I've been to such facilities (in Europe) and typically they are pretty diligent with their radiation protection. But of course they are industrial facilities and therefore look more like a warehouse, and less like a laboratory.

Kept under water for shielding, the racks with the radiation sources look like this, they emit a very, very pretty blue glow (Čerenkov radiation):

Fair enough, but then again, you were complaining specifically about _Italian_ olive oil rather than EU values as a whole. Keep in mind that Italy has large regions that were traditionally run by the Mafia and the Camorra:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sicilian_Mafia

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camorra

Also, keep in mind that - in contrast with the US and as already raised elsewhere - the EU tends to crack down on would-be fraudsters and prosecute when they find issues. Also, it's not unheard of for businesses to tip health inspectors to check out their competitors at the slightest hint of fraud. It might merely be an impression, but the same in the US seems to require alerting consumers and sometimes alarming them before the FDA bothers to wake up (as put on film in e.g. A Civil Action or Erin Brockovich).

At face value Stripe's API is about a billion times better (at least it was a year ago when I looked into using both).

I ultimately went with Stripe because I couldn't stand Braintree's API. So even with getting $50,000 at 0% revenue sharing and having PayPal support I still went with Stripe.

My condition was a bit different than yours tho. Most of my market had credit cards and it was an expensive item ($200). Part of PayPal's value is it's great for impulse purchases, so for an e-commerce site I recommend you integrate with them just because it will provide you more revenue in the end.

I think you are wrong. This scandal is incredibly well-known in Spain.

It's gotten massive press coverage throughout the years. In fact, most people that used to use cheap cooking oils switched to olive oil after the scandal. (For those who are not familiar with the matter, the scandal involved using chemicals on industrial-grade rapeseed oil to remove dyes and re-sell it to consumers.)
If you count meeting people and possibly getting to know them to be a first step on the path to that, then yes. It's very easy to see who's playing the app nearby, and people often get talking while they're trying to take over a gym over waiting for spawns near a lure.
The reason that the market wouldn't move that far is that the market makers were quoting a much bigger spread. That is the price was always way worse (a quarter at the minimum).

You can still get that pricing level almost everywhere by quoting through the market at that price difference.
We should definitely insist on an A/B test between infinite scroll and pagination when we are going to introduce it. I am aware that that A/B test would be a little more difficult than usual to implement, since A and B might not span the same URL structure.

> As a foreign living in Germany I do appreciate the mentality that things "should be done the correct way", but many here don't understand you cannot just change a country's culture by forcing them to strictly follow EU rules.

You mean like Germany's biggest car maker solved the disel exhaust correctly? I don't your generalization stands up.

What I can agree with is that the Germans are sticklers for sticklers sense. And I could argue that breaking more rules and being more aggressive during the financial melt down has left us much better of in the US. Vice versus in the EU being slow and not compromising enough has only paid the shit dividend they've been reaping since the melt down. Much of that fault lies with the Germans being sticklers for sticklers sake.

Finally, it seams pretty short sighted when DB (Deuche Bank) is it self a ticking time bomb, one with additional exposure on Italy.

Nobody is denying that Italy needs structural reform; that's obvious. Germany's instance to be a stickler for sticklers sake is not helping anybody (themselves included).

The problem comes when the majority's desires conflict with the minority's though.

Supposed feminists tell me feminism is about sexual equality rather than the pie-in-the-sky notion that people can in general live as they please.

If the majority actual desire things that are mutually exclusive with direct equality then it's most dangerous not to point that out, surely?

Personally I'm for equality of opportunity for all.

Co-occurrence graph library certainly would be popular.
In my visualisation I've spent the most time fiddling with JavaScript and currently it's the bottle neck of quality of the visualisation.

My another problem was that due the graph size it took ~1 minute to stabilize[1] on my browser and it was very wobbly and janky. I had to pre-load nodes positions and disable animation to make it usable for viewers. The fully automated analsysis of big graphs would require some server side component pre-computing the graph.

1. It was stabilizing quicker with smaller collision (newly introduced in d3 v4 force layout) parameter, but nodes were more likely to overlap.
Good you bring up. I guess France should be studied as a potential failure mode of UBI, but I don't think it torpedoes the idea itself.

> I want to work, to innovate, to create value for people, and France was making it much harder to achieve. But they have RSA and strikes. Their choice.

I want to work too. Just not have a job :). Creating value for people is not equal to having a job or a company, and while most of the value is indeed created this way, I'd also wager that most jobs and companies are not really creating any value. I'd like to avoid participation in bullshit economy to the extent possible.

> I do understand it sounds romantic to an american, just like USSR always sounded romantic to french people.

Yeah, USSR sounded romantic to a lot of Western intellectuals during the entire XX century, up until the late stages of Cold War[0][1]. That said, for me - and I guess for many others - UBI is not like Soviet Union. UBI is like United Federation of Planets.

As far as I know there is no process or laws to facilitate citizenship of non-jews in Israel(unless in a relationship with a citizen of Israel).
There is only a discretion given to the minister of interior to individually grant citizenship (which the ministers rarely do).

Also work visas are very sparse and are dominated by several human resource companies.

For a skilled worker, I'd say it's much easier to immigrate to America then it is to Israel.

TLDR: 'Uber communicated with Ergo largely over encrypted channels. Henley [the Uber executive that hired Ergo] explained in one email that this was necessary to "avoid potential discovery issues."'

Any reasonable person with knowledge of litigation knows that the only reason you attempt to hide things from discovery is that they are incriminating, aggravating (in the legal sense) and/or damning. "Common" due diligence on plaintiffs would never need to be hidden from discovery. In fact, quite the opposite: negative information turned up in due diligence would be paraded in front of the opposing side as a negotiating tactic, and you (almost always) can't selectively disclose which information you turn over in discovery.

Furthermore, if you intend information to remain confidential in litigation, you have your attorney do it so it can be classified as privileged attorney-client work product. But the inconvenient limitation is that lawyers are bound by legal ethics, so the fact that this investigation wasn't conducted by the firm's attorneys (and was, apparently, hidden from them) suggests it was known to cross ethical lines.

And naming CEO's in lawsuits isn't "weird" - it's an extremely vanilla legal tactic. You name anyone and everyone and let the opposing counsel argue for more limited scope. Leaning on that as an excuse is transparently absurd.

It's obvious to any reasonable third party that Uber intended to go beyond normal legal due diligence, and got caught.

Runaway balance of trade deficits and superavits. If a country consistently runs a trade superavit, it will, in infinity, suck all other countries dry of money.

Traditionally this is compensated by currency fluctuation. The Deutsche Mark rises, cancels German advantage against French exports and the trade balance evens out.

The euro prevents this correction mechanism.

The US largely uses investment flows as a compensation mechanism, mostly via the industrial military complex. Europe has no such military, but must come up with some type of investment flow to counter trade imbalances.

As it is now, we have fines. Germany is in line to be fined for having too much of a trade superavit (idiotic fine, which won't happen anyhow)

A basic summary is that market-makers add liquidity to the market and profit from their bid-ask spread, increasing the execution-speed and depth of the market. Many of the 'predatory' pricing strategies attributed to them by Lewis and others appear to be impossible when you try and write down the pseudo-code + order book that corresponds to the allegation.
