The impact of such an initiative may not be big, or even disruptive, but I'd say it at least adds cost to keep the impunity status up.

Also, given a project like this has significant findings and gets picked up by traditional or social media, it may act as a catalyst to public outrage against said impunity, which may trigger more significant changes.

'Changing how a system works' rarely happens as a result of a single event. Even with changes which have a definite turning point, this turning point is often a drop in a bucket which started to be filled much before.
What kind of sugar were you eating? Like cookies, cake, pop, ice cream? I don't have any of those foods in my home. I don't buy high sugar foods. So, I'm kind of confused what you consider to be a high sugar diet. How did you get that much sugar in?

Do what you love, love what you do.

If ML and working with data sets does not feel gratifying and in the same time developing for mobile does - maybe master what you love and try to build ML on top of it? For example - think about using ML to clasify data produced by your users to bring some interesting feature to your mobile app. That way you will spend most of the time working with technologies you like at this particular moment in time, but also you will leverage your skills to apply some newly gathered knowledge in real life scenario.

Would it be wise to try to move towards ML? Good question. There is a lot of traction around AI and ML at the moment though in my opinion it's not easy to get somebody who really gets this stuff (i.e. knows how to apply principles to produce something that really works). Looking at technology it looks like AI/ML will become next `Cisco Certified` type of `living the dream` job. However (again my opinion) you will get good salary in mobile development too.

The bottleneck is art, from what I understand. It's not trivial to generate enough skinned, rigged, and animated, good-quality 3D models. Even if you can reuse the bulk of your engine code, or even build off an existing game, as in the case of total conversion mods, the art demands have been getting steeper and steeper over the years.

Looking at really prolific game studios, they tend to be in less art-intensive genres. 8/16-bit RPGs, pixel-art platformers, etc.

And the people that really crank out games on a limited staff and art budget tend to reuse the same engines and assets with minor iterations. Think Spiderweb Software[1], or SSI with the Five Star games[2].

> Spend 50 hours building anything substantial with JavaScript and you'll get a good handle on them, and you'll be good to go for the next 10,000 hours.

Spending 10,000 hours building things with JavaScript sounds like a pretty good definition of Hell.

JavaScript is an actively, abusively bad language. It's not that it has a few warts: it's nothing but warts. Its fundamental design flaws are obscured only by its superficial design flaws.

It's a really bad, tasteless language.

Sure, not to mention lifecycle.

I was just reacting to the "Manufacturing is hard/messy" - no doubt, but Apple has been orchestrating manufacturing at a huge scale to exacting tolerances for a while now.

Google does software (plus Glass, Nest, Chromebooks, ok, Nexus, etc., maybe, but mostly software...), while Apple has been been doing hardware and software all along.
CDC recommends BMI of 18 to 25. Completely different from body fat percentage. 25% body fat is pretty fat. It's a noticeably protruding belly, drooping love handles, and sometimes breast tissue that could be classified as an A-cup. BMI is a pretty poor standard anyway, since it would classify anyone who does body building even recreationally as obese.

I think what everyone's missing is that this is entirely about economics. SpaceX only had the previous generation expendable rockets for competition and were cost constrained so went for a low cost rocket system and a tripling-up strategy for Falcon Heavy. Bezos knows SpaceX exists and knows what their rocket's characteristics are. A smaller launcher would compete directly with Falcon 9, better to leave that market to them, so he's scaling up to crate a more efficient large launcher. It may not quite have the capacity of FH, but should be significantly cheaper per pound to orbit.

Also Bezos doesn't give a fig about Mars, so his design doesn't have any compromises BFR might have in terms of size, propellant choice, etc to be a custom launcher for MCT. Musk had no real existing benchmarks to compete against when setting SpaceX's strategy because he was leaving everyone else face down in the dust. Bezos has SpaceX as a benchmark so he's building a strategy asymmetric to theirs to carve out his own niche and beat SpaceX in that sector of the market. Also if SpaceX cost efficiencies create an expanded market for access to space, a larger vehicle will become more viable in that environment than it might be now. Bezos is aiming for where the puck is headed, not where it is now.
> For teens, it sort of makes sense in a way to restrict portrayals of sex more than violence. The average teen isn't going to decide to murder someone after watching a movie, but very possibly could decide to have sex.

AFAIK, there is at least as strong of a research-demonstrated link between violent behavior in young people and violent media consumption as there is for the same thing with sexual behavior and media.

So, I am skeptical about your claim here, even before we consider the severity of the harms of children deciding to engage in violence and then deciding to engage in sexual activity.
This was fixed by a defaults change in MySQL 5.7.

You can actually make 5.5+ support larger key lengths, but it requires:

* innodb_file_per_table ON

* innodb_large_prefix ON

* innodb_file_format set to Barracuda

In general, using struct embedding to simulate sharing code and data is pretty limited. I rarely use this feature in my own code. However, having structs which automatically implement interfaces is awesome because you can "say what you need." You can also compose the interfaces together by embedding them.

> (Oracle, Microsoft, ...) who force Java and JS on everybody.

Why call out Microsoft? They aren't forcing Java or JS. They came up with C# and Typescript instead.

I can't speak to Typescript, but C# is way more fun to write than Java. It's not particularly interesting or glamorous, but it is nicer to write.
Amp hours seems like the wrong measure. How many volts are the batteries? Tesla's kwh is much clearer. A tesla with 85kwh is rated for 425 km (265 miles).

The only reason I can imagine to use amp hours instead of kwh is to hide the fact that their batteries have way less capacity than a Tesla. Can someone explain why you'd use amp hours?

The article below says the 94 Ah battery is 33kwh. Wow, that's a lot less energy than an 85 or 100kwh tesla. The article below says range of "up to 115 miles". Tesla 85kwh is EPA 265 miles, which is no doubt more real than the manufacturer "up to" mileage. Why doesn't BMW make a bigger battery car? Expense, weight, ability to keep it cool while charging?

They seem far behind. The roadster, that came out in 2008 had a 53kwh battery (last year they offered an upgrade to 80kwh for $29k). Tesla needs better competition to keep them honest. Maybe in 2018 when the all electric Porsche comes out, and the model 3, they will be closer.

>As a practical matter, its not "citizens" in general who need to reference the building codes, it's builders. They're the ones charged with compliance, and they have to buy copies of the codes as part of their business. Thus, the industry profiting from construction is the one burdened with financing the development of the codes.

That's exactly the model I have a problem with. In my area, it is perfectly legal for me to remodel my house without hiring a 'builder'. But I have to comply with the building codes due to the law. But in order to know what those codes are, I have to pay a third party to access the law. And access isn't cheap. If access to the 'law' is more expensive than the remodel I want to do then I have a problem with the system.

I for one believe that I should have the right to embark on things like building a house without the need to pay a third party for access to access to what amounts to the law.

> It's not the model that maximizes transparency, but it has a sensible logic of its own.

I suppose it comes down to the matter of what you value. I value liberty and government transparency above all special interests. The system as it stands may have some logic, but I believe it is wrong.

I bought an HP LaserJet 5M (with duplexer, extra tray, and network interface) at a university surplus about 11 years ago for $35. It just works (linux, mac, windows). Haven't had issues with it except for it being heavy and a bit slow printing sometimes. The toner isn't cheap, but it lasts us a long time (we don't print a ton).

I'm not quite sure how much I'd pay for a new printer like you describe. Every once in a while I look around for a new printer which can handle larger paper sizes (12x18 and A3), but I haven't found one which looks like it will do what I want (low volume laser printer for larger paper sizes with linux, mac, windows support) and still doesn't cost a ton. I think it's a niche market unfortunately.

That's not to stop potential damage to the drum. It's because on average the drum starts showing damage around 30.000 pages (a damaged drum it leaves lighter or darker bands on the paper, same as on old badly-maintained photocopiers). But because _sometimes_ it starts shows damage earlier, and they don't want you to confuse a damaged drum and an empty toner cartridge, they just force you to change it around 20.000 pages.

The drum reset refill chip is not even a chip, it's a 56 ohm resistor that acts like a fuse. The drum has two resistors in parallel, one with very low resistance and one that's like 200 000 ohm. If the printer sees a high current when you turn on the printer, the firmware thinks it's a new drum and resets the page counter. After a short while the 100 ohm resistor burns (quite literally), and from that point on the firmware will only see a low current when you turn on the printer, and it will not reset the page counter.

So the drum reset refill chip lets you connect the two pads where the printer applies the current with a resistor like the one on a new drum. You can buy a 56 ohm resistor yourself to achieve the same effect.

It's literally a resistor and some plastic, only usable once, and they sell it to you for $10, which makes it much more of a scam than anything printer manufacturers do.
Exactly what I just said. But that is "insinuating", which is what is warned against in the guidelines. Directly calling it out isn;t mentioned.

Well, take this quote:

> Since communications services exhibit network effects and positive externalities, new entrants would face barriers to entry if they could not interconnect their networks with those of the incumbent carriers.

Since social media are communications services, and also strongly exhibit network effects, the act could not only lower the barrier to entry, but actually create the possibility of entry (which is now virtually nonexistent for any newcomer, even if you have the money of Google).

It's easy to assume that the parts of CS you understand well are the important parts. It's the converse of the Blub Paradox. Might there be things that other people consider fundamental that you're only passingly familiar with?

At the meta-level: contempt (like that you're expressing) is a bit risky: it can be hard to tell whether it's motivated by a desire to uphold high standards, or the need for a quick bump to the self-esteem from putting someone else down. If it comes too easily or too often, I'd worry it might be the latter.

I understand the proposition, it just doesn't make any sense. Let's say there is an error in transcription, and you make a faulty transcript that gets deleted by NMD. So... what? What consequence does this have for the cell? It just means a transcript was lost; the cell has no memory of this event, once the transcript is recycled and its protein byproducts digested. This is why transcription can be less reliable than replication, because transcripts are disposable and mutations in them have very little consequence.

If you mean that it is better to have a fault-tolerant system where potential errors are masked, this advantage exists in spite of a decent rate of error in transcription, not because of it. That is because errors in the germline are fundamentally different from errors in transcription - they are constitutive, present in every cell, and the cell cannot escape them merely by discarding the transcript.

Now, presumably mutations that would be horrific germline mutations (a nonsense POLE mutation, let's say) happen all the time in some transcripts in some cells. So what? In what way has the "system" (the organism) been tested for the effect of this mutation at the germline by one shitty transcript in one cell, which was immediately discarded in favor of another, working transcript?
