Chip performance is the bottleneck everything on a phone has to run through. It can give a proprietary boost to a brand if they put out better performing chipsets. Is it the only thing in a phone that matters? God no! But a better chipset allows the peripheral tech (touchscreens, cameras, etc) to do more sophisticated stuff more easily. So chipset performance affects the big picture more than any other component.

It's hard to zoom out and compare peripherals and overall design without getting into personal taste and preference. To measure personal taste empirically, you could look at profits. Higher profit means people aren't buying on price but on perceived value and personal preference.

iPhone is a huge winner here. Apple actually books a majority of the smartphone industry profits every quarter -- more profit than every other company combined (in 2015 it was 91%). It's hard to charge high margins when you don't have some proprietary unfair advantage like faster CPUs.

Samsung et. al sell more phones and have more revenue, but they make a fraction of the money because their value prop competes on price. In fact, Samsung is the only other company that made a profit selling smartphones in 2015, everyone else lost money or broke even. CPU performance is a huge part of that story. Samsung has the second fastest CPUs. That's a difference between first place and second place of almost 100 billion dollars. Third place is you're fired.

I don't understand how our democracies have led to so much instutionalized cruelty, what's the goal? Deterrence? Does it make sense to be afraid of a single individual to the point of depriving this person of so much? It's really sad.
So now publishers must determine what is legal or not. They must do the job of judges as well or better as them or risk the very very high penalties attached to copyright infringement. This can only lead to defensive postures and extensive amounts of self-censorship to avoid that huge risk.
What's so novel about Chicken's GC? Cheney on the MTA is quite clearly novel (Chicken compiles to CPS and essentially GCs its stack frames IIRC, making call/cc as fast as any other procedure call), but the algorithm itself is quite ordinary, IIRC.

I believe it's the same version. Continuum got a license from Intel to be able to distribute the MKL for free, and allow users to redistribute the MKL packages.
I meant profit in non-monetary terms, but in terms related to the experiment. When you run an experiment, and you get a result you didn't expect, there may be a new discovery or a silver lining if it's an undesirable discovery.

We will now call this "Stroustrupping": choosing a large number of incompatible goals and using a subset to defend any argument while ignoring the fact this subset conflicts with many of the other goals, such as the subset used to defend the previous argument.
No, the employer just needs to adjust wage so it's a bit higher than market price (in which case you'd get a less risk of suddenly quitting versus the average in the market). Or the employer can use golden handcuffs.
I interpreted the assignment to be to show up there and see what happens. But what you've said could indeed be true. While I think the implication is there, it's hard to say whether that implication is an actual admission or just Teller having fun with a subtle implication.

It would seem odd SV Bank opened the business bank account prior to the EIN (though maybe Atlas had the EIN and delayed sending it to you for one reason or another).

Can I ask what the game plan is for the annual DE C Corp compliance? Specifically do you know how much your DE franchise tax will be (did you determine how many shares were created or did Atlas)? Do you file your own DE annual report or does Atlas? Do you know who your DE Registered Agent is and the annual cost moving forward?

I'm thinking I could easyily offer those services, but it is not clear if Atlas does/plans to.

From Bill Gathan: http://www.codenewbie.org/blogs/object-oriented-programming-...

Michael Fogus, author of “Functional JavaScript”, suggests in his blog post “FP vs OO, from the trenches” (http://blog.fogus.me/2013/07/22/fp-vs-oo-from-the-trenches/) that when he deals with data about people, FP works well, but when he tries to simulate people, OOP works well.

I wonder about shape of the data as it moves from domain -> range? How would they map to machine and biological models for learning? First guess is the that ML maps well onto FP; for CNNs, the data progresses synchronously from one layer to the next. For Bio, state is asynchronous; neurons, after firing have an efficacy period. Maybe super-fine-grain objects? Petri nets are interesting in that they can feedforward state asynchronously.
I think it's pretty clear from my comment that I'm saying should in the same sense as you should not smell like a dumpster on a hot day and you should be nice to work with.

I disagree. Even if Soames were indeed transported into the future for a bit, it hardly proves anything about the Devil. Merely that someone _claiming_ to be the Devil did this.
In certain especially pedestrian unfriendly places I've lived (orange county area), the buttons really do give pedestrians a lower status. First, you don't get the walk sign if the button wasn't pressed before the light changed, even when the light is long enough for the pedestrian cycle. Second, you must press the button before the light changes, or you don't get the light. Third, the pedestrian light turns red far, far earlier than necessary (like, the light will stay green for 90 seconds after the pedestrian signal turns red).
I should probably do the same thing, and plug in some "average" of Prius MPG too just for kicks and complication [I trend toward complication before I simplify].

I can't believe that Delong actually approves (at least partially) of EiOL. I'm shocked!

Yes, they've taken pragmatic steps to deal with it, given the current situation. It seems that there may be another aspect to basic income refusal that isn't immediately evident. Perhaps the suspicion that is prevalent here for reasons related to local culture and customs are actually more universal. Maybe there is a way that UBI can be tweaked to accommodate for that. I know that one of the cornerstones of UBI is unconditionality. However, it may need to be adjusted if this is a more universal phenomenon.
I am sympathetic to her cause and I think we can all universally support her call for human respect and dignity.

I realized a few things from this article and from her:
1) It's too easy to up-vote or give it a nod and move on
2) I'm generally ignorant about her story and the issues around it
3) She is wildly courageous

One and two go hand-in-hand and I would blame myself for being complicit in her dignity, respect or rights being violated. I started taking a look around to learn more and understand more, and it is limited. This helped a little bit (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-wikileaks-manning-idUS...). No surprise that most of the headlines are focused on WikiLeaks, or her transition. So, if you have more information on her current struggle, I'd be grateful if you shared it here.

Finally, I have to highlight her courage in releasing information related to WikiLeaks, transitioning while in prison, and now, continuing to fight for herself.
Hmm, I wish the article actually explained the humor in amorous courtships. It explains instances of humor, with examples, and very lightly covers courtship, but in no way explains how they combine. I'm not even sure the title is accurate, going by the article.

This is an intriguing question.

I remember reading research some years ago that concludes humans are incredibly bad at predicting how they would feel in a situation that they have never been in, and the accuracy of the prediction had zero correlation with how strongly the subject was convinced.

There is no value or purpose added by stating you are female in the title. Clearly all females don’t think alike or have the same experiences.

There is nothing wrong with asking why was "Female" added to the title , but not other characteristics such as height,weight,age,color,weight, etc.

40k+ riders per month? I've been trying to get ridership data for Chariot and couldn't get anything.
So it's around 2,000 riders per business day? For 30 lines?

It's really low ridership by any standard. Not even a dent in SF Muni ridership of 650,000+ daily rides. It's the equivalent of a local, infrequent Muni line you probably never heard of like the 36-Teresita or the 37-Corbett, both of which are moving around 2,000 riders a day. On a single, modest line.

Speaking as someone that doesn't condone her actions, solitary is torture. What she's going through is awful. I'm not sure what her ability to access the internet is, and she must be in a terrible mental state and just grasping for some kind of help. If she's going on a hunger strike though, she needs a clear list of demands. Saying she wants her jailers to be kind to her is never going to happen. She's in a military prison and is seen (certainly by the prison staff) as a traitor to the country. Hopefully her friends on the outside can formulate a specific list of things she wants and is willing to end the hunger strike if they are provided.
Yes, but how do you conclude without a doubt that what was hashed hasn't been tampered, leading a site to believe it's legal or malware-free content, while it actually isn't, and you've just been fed a shadow version of the real thing. We can reach for consensus algorithms, but ultimately without something like Van Jacobson's Content Centric Networking, it will be very hard to prove with enough confidence for a judge to make a ruling.
The human instinct in me agrees completely.

Having said that, as someone who is both an atheist, and someone who has had family members killed by another person, I have had both the time, and the rare circumstance to think about this a lot.

I've become aware of the fact that we need to forgive, despite whatever has wronged us. This is the only possible way to prevent the cycle of hate breeding hate.

I know it sounds like a defeatist point of view, but it's actually a multi-generational view. It's also a view of acceptance, and one that holds that no matter what has been done to you, you will hold true to the tenet of forgiveness.

Possibly the most important thing for humans of the modern age to realize is that life deals you a random hand. Any actions that perpetuate this unfairness to the next generation or beyond are wrong, despite how right they may feel.

This is probably the only path that conscious evolution can take that doesn't continue the current cycle of hatred breeding hatred.

Sorry to sound like a hippy, but it took me over a decade to arrive at this conclusion after a whole lot of nasty stuff happening. Hopefully you will never need to go through that process, and will take my viewpoint as a valid piece of anecdata.

TL;DR: despite what other people do to you, it's in the best interests of humanity if you show forgiveness, but do all you can that it never happens to another person.
MY GIRLFRIEND CHEATED
I suspect MySQL is used with more bare bones schemas, without as many SQL function and complex triggers, as it has worse support for those (IMO, as someone that used MySQL). This does have the side effect of making it very ORM friendly, and the more you rely on an ORM the less you care or even know what queries are being run under the covers.
I wonder if TV hinders economic growth and development. In so far as urbanization goes, the story that I was told in Urban Economics was that as farming productivity went up, the opportunity cost of time went down and so people took up other trades in addition to farming. When an hour less of farm work didn't mean starvation anymore, people had the time to sew, bake, build, etc. And over time, things which were probably hobbies developed from cottage industries to actual industries.

What entertainment does is drive the opportunity cost of time back up by increasing the pleasurableness of leisure time. Now, that probably isn't much of an issue for actual underdeveloped countries. I don't think anyone would prefer to sew their own clothes when they can buy perfectly fine ones for a lower price unless they're obsessed with self-reliance, and no one is missing out on these homemade goods either. But in a society where it's plausible that a hobbist might produce some really neat stuff on their own, encouraging passive entertainment might mean some less neat gadgets in the long run.
Code is specific to PHP, but can fetch data from other db servers (mysql,oracle,sql-server etc)
To add to it, the issue is about purpose. There's nothing wrong with an application that needs JavaScript because it can't function without it. My day job is one such application, and I've written others as side-projects (anything that does calculations without a server-side component is an instance).

But this presentation is just a bunch of text with navigation. This is what the web was written for, and it should work no matter whether you have CSS or JavaScript on, and it should use progressive enhancement to add on the useful features. That means using hyperlinks for navigation and CSS that doesn't hide all the content until your JS loads (which seems to be the problem with Chrome. The page actually is readable in Lynx).
That's not what the decision said. At all.

The decision said that a link to illegal content can be illegal in itself when 1. it's done for monetary purposes, and 2. when the person creating the link was aware of the illegal nature of the content being linked.

But who would have doubted about that? Did you really think you could create links to illegal content for money and get away with it?

On the other side, it clarifies the fact that a link to illegal content will not be illegal if it's done for free, or if it's done without knowing the illegal nature of the content being linked.

To quote the decision : "it is to be determined whether those links are provided without the pursuit of financial gain by a person who did not know or could not reasonably have known the illegal nature of the publication of those works on that other website or whether, on the contrary, those links are provided for such a purpose, a situation in which that knowledge must be presumed."

From my perspective, it's a good decision.
The answer is not to argue over whose censorship laws to apply, the answer is to not have government censorship.

Given the ton of existing humorous medieval literature which is filled with sexual innuendos and so on, the title seems really dumb.

But the article is actually about publishing a collection of humorous love songs.

The author should have used something like "Stanford scholar collects medieval songs which reflect humor in amorous courtship", I'm pretty sure we didn't just find out now.
All the same people who fucked stuff up are still in charge and still have all their money. How do you figure it worked, even one iota, except for them?

We have plenty of jails and very few bankers in them, despite widespread fraud. Again, not sure how this is a success.

We need banks, but we don't need the ones we have. Ruthlessly prune them, guaranteeing the people's deposits, and capitalize new ones with stricter rules. Of course, now it's too late. We've printed trillions of dollars, inflating our currency, and given it to the thieves without (meaningfully) changing the system.

Owl's pretty nice, but I wish it was documented better: I can't actually get into it, because I have no idea what is valid Owl.

Also, I like how it doesn't call itself Scheme, because it's not Scheme.

This is a problem that annoys me: people seem to think that if you're a lisp-1, and you follow a few naming conventions, you can call yourself scheme. That's like calling yourself Common Lisp because you're a lisp-2 with setf.

Scheme is a family of languages, true, but it does have a formal spec, and if you do not follow it (or at least approximate it), than you are not scheme. Scheme inspired, or scheme derived, maybe, (Racket got this one right, and changed its name once it started going too far afield, thus saving us from having to explain to 1000 confused newbies that PLT Scheme isn't Scheme, and now must only deal with people who tell newbies that Racket is Scheme) but if you don't meet IEEE or RnRS, or at least Scheme as described in AIM-349 (the original Scheme: a radically different language from Scheme today), than you're not Scheme, and if you call yourself that, than you'll confuse people.

It will never be fully solved, but cultural norms can change in a way that makes it a lot easier than it is currently. I believe that right now, it is so normal for men and women to only really talk if they are looking for a hookup that it creates a highly charged atmosphere anytime that rule is broken.

I have read articles about the problems created when men from countries where the veil is normal move to countries where it is not. For such men, who have lived their whole lives in a culture where women are covered from head to toe in public, it is a shocking level of nudity to see women with bare faces and exposed hair and bare arms, etc. For them, it is also highly sexually charged and they stare or make inappropriate sexual advances.

Western men are not shocked by seeing a woman's face in public and it does not strike them as inherently sexually charged. Yet, even western men (and women) tend to find it weirdly over intimate to really talk with members of the opposite sex and both men and women tend to err on the side of thinking it equates to being hit on. That piece can absolutely be changed so that it is much more normal to talk with people, regardless of gender, and not default to thinking it must be an expression of romantic interest.
In the sense that the uses of both have been about isolating apps from each other. The early fuss about VMs was about increased density -- but only because hardware used to be the boundary of isolation, meaning lots of idle capacity.

Containers are a cheaper way to isolate, but the point was and still is isolation.

Separate servers -> VMs -> containers. Same song, different instruments.
I think you simultaneously overestimate the value the employer puts on call center employees and and the level of interest your typical call center employee has in keeping that job. A small amount of increase isn't going to help reduce turnover.
Well the only reason why cash exists at all today is because banking is a mess. Especially if you're poor. So banning cash isn't going to help the poor at all as others have noted. Wake me up when the same Harvard economists get off their butts and make a standard that will make banking for the poor as easy as it is for the rich. Until then, I'm all for cash.
That's not true - at least for Germany. Here a repeated action to earn a profit is considered commercial activity.

I'm not sure what a court would think about 10€/m, but I guess 100€/m would be considered commercial.

EDIT: the common description of being commercial in Germany is: a planned, longer term acting to make money - it's not even necessary to make a profit. Source (in German): http://www.it-recht-kanzlei.de/verbraucher-unternehmer.html
