It might seem like the poor man's approach, but plug a good Yagi antenna into that dongle and it becomes quite powerful.
Great to hear!

Answering your question, I've not been looking anywhere - just what I read or could infer.

500 euros/day/head sounds beyond wasteful to me, at least when not in SF/London.

I can only imagine there's got to be an awful ASAP culture in those environments...
you'll see that sure enough this involved a switched-mode power supply, probably some very cheap no-name.

I just mark all this stuff as spam, including stuff from legit companies that might have tricked me into subscribing to some list.

The thing is, I am never, ever interested in receiving marketing emails. Every single time, without doubt, I opt out of marketing emails. So if I receive one it means that one of these things holds true:

1. It's just spam

2. The website used some dark pattern to trick me into subscribing to something I did not want to

3. The website assumed consent and didn't bother asking

Guess what -- I'm perfectly fine burning all of this crap with a spam filter. It's a waste of time, and time is my most precious asset.
Apparently it uses Web MIDI, and apparently Web MIDI only works in Chrome right now.

Risk aversion or maybe laziness.

I've had a similar line of thinking recently. Sure, average investors lose money on active trading. Well, let me tell you what an average investor looks like. They have little to no accounting background, no coherent thesis for their investments other than "it's hot", they lack even a rudimentary understanding of 101-level finance topics like NPV/IRR/cost of capital, they have no informational edge one gets from working in an industry, no understanding of tax law (either personal or corporate). They're basically gamblers. They look at stock charts, see a big line going up and to the right, and guess / let FOMO take the driver's seat. Oh, and they probably think watching Jim Cramer counts as "research". They also have no appreciation for the fact that individual securities within an asset class are highly correlated and misattribute the asset class's performance to their "stock-picking" prowess.

I've been thinking, if one is willing to do actual primary research -- reading financial statements, getting on investor calls, really thinking hard about long-term trends, reading history, etc., there's almost certainly alpha to be had. Do people honestly think indexing is the best way? The UK just mandated that all coal generation will be gone by 2025. Is this really a time to be buying coal stocks? Or cigarette companies?

For me it's about risk/reward. I was talking to a friend at a wedding two weekends ago who manages a prop book (his own cash) of about 2-3 million. If he can get 15%/year consistently, that's about 300-400k pretax. He lives in Puerto Rico where there's apparently a tax loophole where capital gains of any character -- short or long-term -- aren't taxed. I'd bet he's coming out ahead of 95% of the people reading this thread. And yet, life isn't all about money.

I guess what I'm saying is, I also disagree with this "orthodoxy" of index, index, index. Maybe I'll sound arrogant saying this, but I'm not an "Average" investor. I trade once/quarter, read the Ks and Qs for every company I'm investing in, and have written theses that guide my decisions. I'm not a millionaire yet but I'll let you guys know how it goes after a while. I was a pure, 10+ year indexer until about 6 months ago.

2) Every OS has bugs. You won't get away from that by switching.

3) I often see this fact quoted but nobody ever points out how it has actually ever caused a problem for them other than their sense of ownership being offended.

You can switch for whatever reasons you want though. Are you actually a Windows user who is considering a switch?

I don't see how I misread at all. 4x as much time off for the mother vs the father still tips the calculus to the point where it makes sense for employers to discriminate.

IMO it's premature to congratulate Sweden's supposed gender equality when the disparity is that huge -- Sweden's women still spend 400% of the time as their male counterparts on childcare. That's huge.
Prescott looks pretty cool, but seems fairly expensive and without much of a local tech scene. Looks a bit like here in Bend in some ways, actually, although Bend is significantly bigger at this point and is developing something of a tech ecosystem, with a new university, some VC's, and some established companies.

What's New in Swift 3 by Daniel Steinberg
> It can be said with certainty that this cannot be an oversight.

It can be, especially when you're using something like Stripe. It only takes one failed call without retries (or a period of time where networking isn't working quite right) for an account to be orphaned.

Arguably, those sorts of calls should be durably queued and retried until success, but it often doesn't happen.

PM decides it's cheaper to have support field the one-off requests than to spend a few days making those changes.

Later on, another developer accidentally disables the call and there isn't sufficient test coverage for disabling billing on account removal.

It's a story that'll be repeated over and over.
FWIW, it's one of these, a Ventex VT 12030-120:

The main source of this anxiety comes from the flaw in the phrasing, "There are plenty of fish in the sea."

That simply is not true. People are so unique and diverse that while there are other members of the opposite sex out there, to find someone truly compatible is rare, hence why divorce rates are so high. For me, the anxiety comes when I have found someone who I know is extremely compatible but am afraid I won't attract them.

Not every member of the opposite sex makes me feel the same way certain ones do. Saying there are plenty of fish in the sea is like saying there are plenty of baseballs to hit in batting practice. While true, it elides the fact that it's only real at bats that matter. Once you strike out, you're stuck waiting for your next at bat which may never come.
Buffet wouldn't have gotten rich in today's environment. When he was growing up, the stock market was a plaything of the rich. Valuations were lower across the board, markets weren't nearly as efficient (in the technical sense) as they are now, volumes were much thinner, in general it was a lot less systematized.

Nowadays, much like YC, he's a brand, so while he might be a very smart and capable investor, it's his deal flow that puts him in such a strong position. He gets calls normal people don't get because he's made a name for himself over the past 50 years and people want his name for their company, as much as anything else.

I wonder what lesson can be drawn from all this. The primacy of reputation in today's world?
If you copy-paste the URL for a specific comment into a new comment it will show as `#123 (comment 234)` and link to that comment. There is no special reference syntax to link to a specific comment, because it's much more likely that you have the URL to a comment on hand, than just its ID :)

It is basically only Google, though, because the only way to keep something running is with a severe penalty, and the user is kept directly notified about that.

In previous dev versions, Google even didn’t allow wake locks at all (which is where my confusion is from), saying devs should instead move all their processing to server side, and use GCM for everything.
If you don't mind me asking, how old are you, approximately?
For us introverts, socializing is exhausting in a way that's very different from being physically tired or just sleepy. For me, it's a similar sort of exhaustion that comes from doing a tedious task for a long time. The kind of exhaustion you might experience if you had to write the same sentence out on a piece of paper by hand a thousand times. Wouldn't you think twice before signing up for such an experience? I often endure it because occasionally there are really fulfilling interactions and transfers of information that happen, but most of the time I find people in social situations don't want to engage their intellect at all and so the interaction is pure tedium.
Bend is really nice too, but getting expensive thanks to rapid growth and NIMBYism that mirrors that in the bay area.

the researchers found the structure heated water to its boiling temperature of 100 degrees Celsius, even on relatively cool, overcast days.

It's not surprising that one could get such a result from solar thermal. Heat pipe based solar collectors have been doing this in cloudy English environs for many years. The really impressive part of this solution is its potential extremely low cost.
Your "conservative fears" are not really based in reality though. Border patrol over-reach and Sheriff Joe's corruption are real things.

Also, being wrongly convicted of a crime doesn't "affect everyone" but I would argue that doesn't mean we should ignore it.
I replay awkward (or bad) moments occasionally, too. You can actually break that habit, though. When you catch yourself remembering them, just make the effort to blank your mind. "Don't think about cheese" and all that.

true. This is pretty much what i have been doing for 25 years and will be doing for the next like 20.

It's the new fad of marketing support as being an advocate for the customer. They use language and phrasing to imply they exist to make the customer happy/relaxed/productive which if it were true would be a great thing.

But it's just marketing, at the end of the day support is still a large expense that some companies believe they don't have to bear. This seems to work for some companies better than others, likely due to different business models leading to different customer expectations and requirements.
There is distinction between the scenario you describe, and the goal of YADA, which is that with YADA we strive to make the first (or existing) system useful, and to keep the bar low, by favoring the indispensable skills like SQL; or, to simplify the first, second, third, or whatever system by reducing the number of components, redundant configurations, and points of failure. Further, YADA facilitates solving a problem that many of the optimal systems create, those related to workflow, collaboration across teams, efficiency, repurposing, etc.

I been ran CM on a Nexus 5 some years ago, but since they quit releasing stables I left (the nightlies really weren't stable).

You orient the card based on the other player's card, for their benefit. That's why I think it would be against the rules - it's the same as if you held up fingers or made a face, it's communication.

Bruce and Ava decide to put the card horizontally if they see a red card, or vertically if it's black. If Bruce sees a vertical card, he knows Ava sees a red card on his head.

In the game of four, the players decide one of them will guess, and two others will communicate information in binary:

horizontal, horizontal: hearts

horizontal, vertical: diamonds

vertical, horizontal: spades

vertical, vertical: clubs

However this latter method only requires three players, not four. But it is similar to how professional bridge players cheat, by communicating their hand (which is hidden from their partner) with secret signals: http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/03/07/the-cheating-pr...
LendUp raises $47M Series C round led by Y Combinator’s growth fund
Nice Maybe implementation! The thing that you miss out on with that particular style of implementation, though, is that you don't get certain higher-order functions for free. For example, if you were to endow your Maybe implementation with a "GetEnumerator" method, then you would get all of the other LINQ methods for free (at the expense for losing your "Maybe"-ness as its static type is transmogrified into a vanilla IEnumerable). With higher-kinded types, you could potentially gain a whole host of methods for free that would, in contrast to LINQ, return a Maybe<T> instead of just an IEnumerable<T>, but you would still just need to provide a small handful of manually-implemented methods (e.g., Select, SelectMany, Where, etc.).
Oh I agree completely. I believe it's a major risk despite Denmark doing quite well on many other areas (design, gastronomy, sports architecture) it's size taken into account.

I also think it's changing quite a lot because the younger generations grew up with social networks and so a certain amount of equalizing between cultures in certain areas is happening.

As an example x-factor the music talent show is still doing well in Denmark. What is interesting is that over the years the quality of the contestants have really improved especially in the young category.

My theory is that this is because the young generation is seeing how good contestants from other countries are and so what's good enough changes.

My luck was that I did an internship when I was really young in the US and learned just how good the good really are.

Their luck is that they are surrounded by talent which pushes everyones understanding of "good enough"

I've tried Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Verizon and T-Mobile give my phone IPv6 addresses while AT&T is IPv4 only. Only Verizon gives my tethered devices IPv6 addresses.
IPv6 enabled hosts include Google and Facebook, so I'd guess that's a lot of traffic.
Open Sourcing the Exponent client
Though strftime is in ISO C, so there is little excuse, strptime is a POSIX function, so there is at least the possibility of a credible portability argument there. (Though this probably doesn't stretch far enough to justify the lack of an #ifdef to select the system's strptime if it is provided.)

Off-topic, but in a similar vein of things that might be unexpected to someone from the Bay Area. Quote from the article: "along with some local touches, like a “No Weapons” sign to remind employees that open-carry laws do not extend onto company property."
For what it's worth, I'm not arguing that one should look at their life entirely this dispassionately. Just that their are multiple levels that we operate in where we deal with rules and consequences.

I don't mean "game" in the sense of "doesn't matter what happens". I mean it in the sense of "players interacting within a rule set".

Note that empathy and the feelings of others are hugely important parts of all of the games we play in life. An anecdote: my youngest daughter is one of the sweetest most naturally empathic people I know. She was playing Candyland with her older sister and won twice in a row. This got her sister mad because she wants nothing more to win. But my youngest daughter wasn't trying to win—Candyland is a pure chance game—and what she really wanted was for everyone to have fun. So she told her sister to play again and that she promised to let her win this time. She was trying to play the metagame of maximizing everyone's fun.
Regulations caused by NIMBY-ism are what's holding back the Bay Area, one of the most advanced economy's (standalone) in the world from actually having decent infrastructure.
The article states that they used "a Radar Engineers 240A Noise Signature Receiver and UHF Yagi antenna to survey the affected block."

Pretty easy to hook up a RTL-SDR ($10) to a cheap Android tablet loaded with SDR Touch for simple surveying.

To describe somebody as 'having' women is often accurate
and useful - I do not see why this should be penalised.

Can you also see that someone might find this language offensive? That 'having a woman' is somehow vernacular but you don't really see women being described as having 'money, fame, men' ?

The language makes women sound like they are possessions.
There would definitely be some level of revenue being driven off these. It is an interesting case where apart from the software it didn't cost them anything to get the email address, so getting a higher unsubscribe rate doesn't seem so bad. (As opposed to discounts/ deals/ competitions) you might normally run to get someone onto a mailing list.
That's some great detective work.

But why is the Android TV spamming these pause frames at all?
I had a Nexus 5 as well. Big improvements with the jump up to the 5X. I'd hope that this year's model will continue the trend.
I started actively trading around 5 years ago, and only picked longs another 5 years before that. It's difficult to give an exact % because I'm not a day trader per se. I trade around a position I know well, but do day trades when I spot an opportunity. Sometimes you know something will happen, but only on a short time frame.

For example, I went into oil stocks earlier this year, and I knew that the market was panicking over the low oil price. So some days the market would bounce back right when the oil pits close at 2:30 (since the oil correlation can't get much worse then). Take a chance to ride the way back up, why not? But you can't do this all the time, which is why I gave you this esoteric example.

Well, if you still want a percentage, I'd say 10-20% might be a reasonable achievement.
