How much of our current Federal debt is just funding current consumption?

Parking lots are dangerous to build over, for two reasons:

1) people cannot drive. The amount of dents or other damage from incompetent drivers done to a concrete-built park house is crazy, I don't want to imagine the damage they'll do to tiny aluminium/steel constructions holding the panels

2) people cannot drive. They underestimate their vehicle height all the time - just google for "can opener bridge". Just a couple days ago a truck driver massively damaged the lighting in a Munich tunnel because he forgot that the excavator on the flatbed was higher than the truck...

Yes free expression obviously does have limits; It probably doesn't have that silly "Fire in a theater" restriction.

Holmes (the supreme court justice you are quoting) said this with respect to this case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schenck_v._United_States where they prosecuted Schenck for anti-war pamphlets. This is something that would be protected by the constitution today. This quote is a pretty lousy excuse for suppressing free expression considering Holmes's track record of dismissing free speech.

With regards to Facebook removing posts, why should there be a "due process" for a (specific) company to remove posts. What sense does this make?
Stalin was quoting Napoleon. I'm not sure where you're going with this.
I don't mean to disagree, just share a fun fact: the Atacama is actually so dry, parts of it are barely an ecosystem at all. Obviously, the life that does exist there is quite sensitive, but there's large swathes of desert that are some of the only places on Earth where no life has been detected whatsoever; the land is literally just rock, without even bacteria living in it.

You have another option, keeping the GNU GPL as a license and avoiding this time-shift complexity: sell the binary, and offer the source only to those who buy the binary -- don't make the source code public on github. It's not only possible but it's what sustained many GNU projects, until they were acquired by others.

Nobody in the comments mentioned the most successful case: Cygnus Solutions had been developing the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) for good money, all under the GNU GPL. Notably, they made a lot of cash from a deal with Sony to support the original Playstation in gcc.

A good read about how they marketed Free Software on John Gilmore's pages: http://www.toad.com/gnu/cygnus/
Yes.. I don't like her policies, but she has her good moments, and while I don't think they'll keep reposting it, as they'll have more important things to do, the Minister of Culture has also posted it and had her post taken down, and she has already indicated she very much wants to get Norwegian newspaper editors and Facebook together for a meeting. They'd not do that unless they're very displeased.
The fear is irrational, but so is the cost. Nuclear always comes in over budget and with far greater construction delays than any other generation type.

Even if you were to start on new reactors today, it would take a decade to complete them; a whole lot of wind and solar are going to be deployed in a decade.

An Airpod that could generate really loud infrasound would probably have amazing bass response, but I'm pretty sure that's not what was invented here. And subliminal messages don't work, so...why would we care if somebody put them in our audiostream?

A "loud whine to take out hearing" is at least theoretically possible, except that many people are listening to that already - I think they call it music. :-)
The power output of a hydro dam, relative to the lost land and its plants, is many orders of magnitude improvement. It's a massive win in terms of carbon footprint.
Beautifully put. Watching stars is underrated.

The historical significance of looking up and seeing light patterns slowly move across the dark sky is enormous: it was where the first human civilizations made their first discoveries.

The night sky is the origin of mankind's first concepts of time, cosmology and theology (Egyptians associated the afterlife with the night sky). The very earliest known long-form writings such as the Pyramid Texts [1] are fundamentally rooted in astronomical observations.

The problem with nuclear is that we can't trust the people running it to follow instructions without failure for decades in a row. Sooner or later a politician shows up and demands an experiment to be done, or maintenance to be postponed.

Failures are rare, but the failure mode is catastrophic.
Call/cc is actually used by Sinatra for its error handling. There's not a good way to get its syntax without doing it that way.

(Is the syntax worth using call/cc? Eh, good question. But Sinatra's killer feature is, literally, its syntax, so I don't think I get to tell them "don't do it that way." Rails has an ugly workaround for not using call/cc that bites many, many app programmers who forget to return after calling render().)
When someone comes up with an objective measure of consciousness lets consider that.

In the meantime I see no issue with optimising for human happiness in the general case.
> I agree, a big part of the problem is that few tech organisations have alternate progression paths for technical staff, so promoting to management is seen as the only way of rewarding long term tech staff. Often made worse by making it politically untenable to raise salary above certain levels without promotions.

Short of finding a new job, I'm not sure how to work around this problem without becoming a manager.
I didn't realize that. It sounds like the same situation with astronomical simulations. General Relativity is too complicated so everyone uses Newtonian mechanics plus a fudge factor.

I think it is odd that the two most cherished scientific theories are not actually used in practice to compare with data.

Also, this got me wondering how they did this simulation, which lead me to this site:
http://www.tapir.caltech.edu/~phopkins/Site/GIZMO.html

There is a lot of code.. but after a quick look at it I see Netwonian mechanics. From analytic_gravity.h:

void GravAccel_StaticIsothermalSphere()
{
double ISO_M200=95.21;
double ISO_R200=160.0;
double ISO_Eps=0.1;
double ISO_FRACTION=0.9;
double r, m, dx, dy, dz; int i;

for(i = FirstActiveParticle; i >= 0; i = NextActiveParticle[i])
{
dx = P[i].Pos[0]; dy = P[i].Pos[1]; dz = P[i].Pos[2];
r = sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy + dz * dz);

if(r > ISO_R200)
m = ISO_M200;
else
m = ISO_M200 * r / ISO_R200;

m *= ISO_FRACTION;
if(r > 0)
{
P[i].GravAccel[0] += -All.G * m * dx / r / (r * r + ISO_Eps * ISO_Eps);
P[i].GravAccel[1] += -All.G * m * dy / r / (r * r + ISO_Eps * ISO_Eps);
P[i].GravAccel[2] += -All.G * m * dz / r / (r * r + ISO_Eps * ISO_Eps);
}
}
}
As a previous Jira user I have come across all the problems in this article. But the biggest problem with Jira, and all similar applications is that developers just don't want to use it - as a PM you either end up having to force a tool on the team or try and work from inaccurate data (which involves lots of asking for status updates rather than getting them async from the tool)

This is actually why we created ZenHub[1] to take this work flow to the makers rather than the managers.

We find this provides higher quality data and improves productivity by reducing context switching. Im interested to hear everyones thoughts about this integrated approach vs siloed tools like Jira. In my biased opinion the days of having a separate tool for this are numbered (see also the GitLab issue board release)

God, it's probably billions. I love git but its user interface is borderline criminal. The sad thing is mercurial has like 95% of git's power and is waaay easier to understand, but it never took off in a big way.
TFA said it wasn't algorithmic, that it was a response of a review team at FB
Preach! I absolutely love gitup; all of these slice-and-dice operations that are brainteasers in command-line git are just intuitively obvious in gitup. Absolutely one of my favorite pieces of software, ever.

git is basically a brilliant repo model combined with an insane cli. gitup is the brilliant ui that the repo model deserves.

bonus awesome thing about gitup: it monitors the filesystem and updates its state in realtime, so it it's seemless to mix your workflow between cli and gui.

Updated to reflect that. Though to be honest, I could have told his mother twice the amount, when she asked how much does she owe.
By 'these sorts of trades' I meant 'trades with strangers without a trusted third party'.

Of course a trusted third party obviates the need for complicated schemes.

You can rely on solar to generate electricity when the sun is shining, but you cannot rely on the sun to always be shining, hence not reliable.
And here I actually used the old Hakaru. What would be the problems in porting it to more recent Base libraries and GHC versions?
I meant to reference the common (uneducated) perception that if there's ever any way that renewable resources fall short, that means they're useless. It's the same mindset that says that an electric car "only" has a range of 300-450km and takes a while to recharge, and therefore is useless as a vehicle because it can't do nonstop cross-country road trips.
>Honestly, I don't know how the U.S. would respond to such an event, especially if they were not certain that they could prevent another launch.

The US is obligated by treaty to defend Japan against imminent military threat[0]. As far as I know, that doesn't allow for a preemptive strike by the US, but landing a nuke on Japanese territory would probably require the US to respond in kind.

And the lake is not dead - its just a different ecology.
It depends on the route, but I saw this done on many flights from mainland China to Europe, on several airlines.

(And considering the amount of carry-on luggage that people routinely bring in Chinese domestic flights, this is not surprising; there's a limit to what the overhead lockers can take, not to mention that pathetic slot where your feet should be.)
It depends on where the dams are. I live in the North Eastern USA. Most of this part of the country (and eastern Canada) are powered by hydro. Niagara Falls doesn't turn off. Neither do dams, really. Even in the winter (-30F) and during summer droughts, they have water passing over the turbines. None of the dams in my area have needed maintenance in the time I've been alive (about 30 years).

It's cleaner and more reliable than any other kind of energy production on the planet including coal and oil. Nothing is 100% reliable, but hydro is the closest we're likely to get.

theres also religious folks who believe the earth was created specifically for humans, and so everything here is for us and us alone.

I find it a rather disgustingly self centered ideology. To presume that one (or ones species) is the most important thing in the world (or universe) is basically the definition of narcissism
>Also, to add to this, as @hackuser mentions[1], the system, even if set perfectly in stone, will still be based on somebody's biases.

Yes but these are going to be "fixed" biases, where a judge's ones are not.

A judge can be argued with, it can be presented with the case in a different manner, it can be given precedents which might be relevant for this case because of it's unique circumstances.

Overall a system that has a fixed set of "biases" is still "impartial" it's just utterly static, it would have it's penal code and some large list of if this then that's in regards to how to execute it's judgment.

So while it might have if (crime.type = theft && crime.subject = food && crime.offender = parent.single) { return show.sympathy(); } you won't be able to change that by arguing for or against it and that's what our legal system is based on.

This is why we have defense and prosecution rather than simply running the crime through some flow chart to figure out if you are guilty and if so what the punishment should be.
I think the most obvious comparison is Firebase, but as a self-hosted solution deepstream is much cheaper (5-10x, dependant on the usecase). The creators of deepstream.io have actually written a blog post that covers this exact topic: https://deepstream.io/blog/realtime-framework-overview/

And that justifies the initial removals. It does not justify not having an effective appeals method to someone who isn't just blindly applying their rules, and a means of white-listing things that have been approved once.

It might be, but is still more practical. Both solar and wind also rely on mining, something environmentalists also oppose.

There are a few problems with your examples, I think.

There is a difference between bad regulation and good. Some regulation is necessary in many circumstances. China's strong laws over media organisations are an example of over-reach: Not calling emergency crews to your house to complain about how your think they are misusing tax dollars isn't bad to regulate.

The marketplace solves some problems, but definitely not all of them. Discrimination is a lot harder to solve just relying on the market, for example. Regulation comes in to help.

> Perhaps they aught to vote with their dollar and seek alternatives The problem with alternatives is the same problem folks have with seeking alternative utilities. The alternatives are few and far in between and offer an inferior service comparatively. In fact, facebook is more like a telecom that refuses to connect to other telecoms at this point. Your basic options are to participate... or not.

It isn't like buying tacos at all - tacos has a market that competes to an extent, and this just isn't such a thing. And to get it to the point that it is easier for other folks to start the business, you are knee-deep in regulation, including standards so the different services can communicate with each other easily and other such monopoly-busting sort of regulation, which will probably last for many years.
Everything requires maintenance. Solar panels have to be cleaned or replaced if they get scratched. You have to clean the bird carcasses out of the windmills. Nuclear requires constant supervision. There's no maintenance-free option.
Agreed. Instead we use github issues with color-coded and prefixed labels (e.g. "type:bug", "comp:auth",... with all type labels blue, all component labels green, ...) and waffle.io for a sortable kanban view. A few big FOSS projects do this (e.g. https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues).

Pros: best possible github integration, fast, lightweight.

Cons: none for us. There's nothing in Jira that I miss, at least.
I personally prefer this because old-branch@{1} is a little weird..

It's too useful to be ignored. Soon, interaction with businesses will be done through their platform. It's easier to set up a FB page with services + marketing included than to create a website.
Unsustainable or not, most people do have a car, and it is a major nuisance when there is inadequate parking around housing. If there isn't parking near a restaurant where you want to eat, you might just choose to eat somewhere else. But if there's no parking near your home, you're likely to park illegally/block someone's driveway/generally step on your neighbors' toes.

Inadequate parking does have a negative impact on a neighborhood, and it's not the only way to nudge society in the direction of driving less.
> But if we were going to go that route eventually, perhaps a system where a judge is provided the "impartial" judgment as additional information or where the decisions are reviewed by a judge before sentencing and could be lessened/cancelled but not increased?

That is basically what we do in the federal system. Judges have to calculate sentences using a mechanical, point-based system called the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines. The judge has discretion to depart from the calculated sentence, but in practice the guideline sentence has a powerful anchoring effect.

And it's terrible. Turns out that its much easier to formulate a system with inhumanely long sentences when you're a committee developing an abstract point-scoring system than when you're an individual judge faced with deciding the fate of a living, breathing human in front of you.

Something that "gateways" to Facebook would be great, but of course Facebook would fight it with every weapon possible if it were to get any kind of traction.
Are you talking about the linked site? HN cerainly doesn't do that.

As for infinite scrolling, I am definitely not a fan myself, and this is an example of why.
I've been diving to light, color, and color perception the last couple weeks as part of a fun work project. I've got a diffraction grating spectrometer on my desk that measures light in half nanometer wavelengths. From the papers that I've read, and the stuff I've messed with so far, it seems that human perception of colour - on average - is well studied, and has been since the 1930's. We know how light gets into the eye, and how much each wavelength of light will excite the average eye's individual color specific sensors.

Once the info leaves the receptors, now that's a another story...
Avocado.io has been down for days now with no developer communication

Love Zenhub. Hate Jira. I think many PMs forget that the first word in project management is PROJECT. They get it backwards and we end up with process for process sake rather than a process that complements how developers actually develop.
He mentions he's using the cloud-hosted version so I don't think it's the version / hardware that's the problem.
I agree. Bitkeeper actually has a much better command line user interface and is more intuitive, but free and fast is hard to pass up.
Re: load balancing. Out of curiosity, why not just use haproxy? Or nginx, or your load balancer of choice.
