Yeah but if you want documents and shelf life (toner doesn't dry out in a year) then lasers might be better for you.
Exactly.

In the switch varitation both the 1 man and 5 man group are tied to the tracks. For whatever reason we can assume fate has brought them there and it is our role to simply make the logical choice.

But to ask one to push a man right beside you, in the same situation you are in, is quite different. Not even morally related.

Ah, I completely forgot about the Game Boy Light!

Also realized I made another error too: the original Game Boy Advance didn’t include an AC adapter; in fact the Game Boy Advance itself doesn’t even have a barrel connector on it to plug one in in the first place! I misremembered that the AC adapter that I have lying around for my Game Boy Advance didn’t come with it, but actually came from a third-party accessory my parents had ended up buying for me so they could stop wasting money on alkaline batteries (a controller grip similar to this¹ one that plugged into the battery compartment).

Interestingly enough, Nintendo made such an accessory²³⁴ themselves as well (although without the grip part).

Patent attorney here. I used to do a lot of patents for the printer cartridges. The printer companies use the "give away the razor, make money on the razor blades" business model. The make very little on the printer, and make a killing on the cartridges. Thus, they spend a lot of effort trying to keep generic cartridges out of the market.
I think the most important part is:

"Uninjured and resilient animals performed worse after the drug, but chronically impaired animals responded with increased accuracy and less impulsivity on the behavioral test."
"These industries are a rich source of e - KYC(know your customer) data. Airlines alone served 2.8 billion passengers in 2011. Every person who checks into a hotel has to supply"

I don't think this needs to be said but if my airline stats selling where I go to advertisers I'm not going to be using that airline anymore. It's bad enough they are selling it to governments.
Let me quibble with "_precisely_ the same period we've had Sarbanes-Oxley."

Sarbanes Oxley passed in 2002. IPOs increased from 2002- 2004. Source: https://www.quandl.com/data/RITTER/US_IPO_STATS-Historical-U...

I suspect that Sarbanes-Oxley did suppress IPOs but if you can't think of some other reasons for fewer IPOs. I will offer some:

- Much more capital available in private markets from hedge funds, sovereign funds, etc. Think of how much money Uber can raise today as a private company. That didn't used to be possible.

- Tech companies have really resisted offering dividends because they are believed to be tax inefficient and a sign that those companies can't grow and invest. So instead they have huge amounts of cash on their balance sheet that they need to invest.

I'm not following at all - why the downvotes and political accusations?

The semantics of the quoted sentence clearly indicate that women going back to work is seen as a good thing (by the author; not necessarily my personal view) in the context of a "notoriously patriarchal society". It is clear that the author makes this point separately from the main concern of the article.

I don't even know how to interpret it differently, regardless of whether I agree.
If I understand you correctly, that's basically how SSH already works. The problems are:

1. Most people don't bother to verify the host key of the server they are connecting to.
2. An attacker with root on the server can modify or observe sshd in order to get the plaintext password.

"AGI research" in practice means "give money to MIRI", whose track record of results on pretty much any measure is less than impressive.

It is really (and literally) "donate to stuff that demonstrably works" versus "donate to MIRI, with its terrible track record, to do something supported primarily by Pascalian arguments."

c.f. http://www.vox.com/2015/8/10/9124145/effective-altruism-glob...

Yudkowsky may have (probably) coined the phrase "effective altruist", but people who aren't living sci-fi dreams are in EA now, and asking rather pointed questions.

Never confuse "Effective Altruism" and "altruism that is effective". Whatever "effective" actually means in the given context.

Getting back on-topic, there's still no evidence - e.g., a track record of results - that anything within a mile of MIRI/LW is actually any good at all for real-world effectiveness, and things like mosquito nets versus AI as evidence against it. LW sells a sort of "rationalitiness": it sure feels like rationality.

Not necessarily in this case but in general I am more on the side of the one being criticized. There are so many issues with marketplaces and communities like Ebay, Yelp, iTunes and so on. Very little oversight combined with the power to destroy whole businesses.

Ratings can sometimes be bought, fake or resulting from the customer being incompetent or just a dick. It is often times very hard to get rid of them.

I myself currently have an issue on a marketplace where someone owes me money, but I do not really know how to handle it, because the resulting bad rating would probably cost me even more. I asked the platform what to do about the possibly bad review and they just said, they won't do anything about it. So I get suing.

Platforms should take measures that ensure reviews are real and fair, publish rules and have a way to clear violations. Especially in Valves case, since we are talking about children here and you want to avoid them getting sued. Even though being hold accountable and having to think about how your actions affect others is probably a valuable lesson.

I'm using 820, 840 and 725 laptops which in my opinion offer a good balance of price and performance. At least they did when I last bought them and I compared to what I could find on the market.

There's something funny with some Linux kernel versions, which shows up as kacpid hogging up a lot of CPU time, but you can disable it by echoing disable to the /proc filesystem. You may find such issues with very many laptops. But the physical and ergonomic things are very OK, considering the price, with these laptops.
SOX is trivial if you are a large public company, you just spin up a dedicated group to deal with it, for some rounding error of your cost of doing business anyway. It is much harder for a small public company. But I believe it kicks in anyway if you are a large private company with >50 shareholders, so there is that to consider too...

"capitalizing Internet was still justifiable at the time"

Given the Internet is a particular thing, shouldn't it still be used as a proper noun?
I disagree.

near-0% of the Gameboy's use-cases are audio-centric. I almost always played my Gameboy(s) with the volume down, so as not to annoy parents/siblings/whoever-else-was-around, and the games I played were all perfectly playable. In fact, some of them I enjoyed better that way, given that some sound was annoying, but that's purely subjective.

When I go to the gym, 95% to 100% of what I want to do with my phone is put it in my pocket and listen to music. This is a use-case that requires audio, and so removing the headphone jack would make this entire very-common use-case painful.

When I'm in my car, I want to plug my phone into the aux input (or the "aux cord" as kids call it nowadays) and listen to a podcast or audiobook. My 2006 car does not have bluetooth audio. This use-case is (if I'm being safe and legal while driving!) 100% audio-centric. Removal of the headphone jack would make this painful.

When I'm at work, I have two primary usages for my phone: testing a native app I develop, and playing my music through my headphones. I play music far more often than I test the native app on my phone (I don't usually work on the native app). Removal of the headphone jack would make that primary usage of my phone much much more painful.

I've just described ~65-70% of what I use my phone for. ~65-70% of my phone's entire usage would be made more painful and expensive if I bought a phone that for no real reason omitted a jack that is cheap, ubiquitous, and simple-to-use (compare the 3.5mm jack to HDMI in terms of reliability and simplicity), my phone would lose ~65-70% of its usefulness to me.

Meanwhile, the Gameboy, since its purpose is to play games (which have sound and music that is optional to the experience of playing games), loses near-0% of its usefulness without having a headphone jack, because even if it had no audio output whatsoever (not even speakers), I can still play games without sound.

All you need to do is buy from a business that doesn't depend on fraud. Samsung make very nice and cheap black & white laser printers. I've bought two over the last few years, around $70. I see one on Amazon for $75 that has wifi printing as well), comes with a cartridge that lasted me 2-3 years and some thousands of pages, and replacement cartridges are $60 for branded ones, less than half that for generics. The printer is tiny, quiet, fast, etc. I can't believe people still buy anything else, after all we don't print photos at home much anymore, do we?

There are other manufacturers that do the same kind of model.

Just avoid HP and (in my experience) Canon. Laser is the way to go.
Oh, I stand corrected! Could have sworn there was more. Completely agree MagSafe is a really good innovation though!
> "the cheapest shit you can get away with" could also be a perfectly fine product for a set of users.

Where cheapness is bad is when it is sacrificing a large amount of utility for a marginal price reduction, to trick people into thinking it's the best value.

> no amount of "tricking" whatsoever will make people buy things they don't want.

Well of course not, since the "trick" is making them want it when it will provide little benefit.

Reasonably sure we don't. We disagree mostly that your specific definition of property is a thing that should be considered a human right at all.

Unlike most other human rights, the only reason that property is considered one is to prop up capitalism and prevent experimenting with alternatives. Property doesn't exist to the extent it does today without Government intervention - the alternative is that nobody owns anything aside from that which they can defend personally by force. Property is thus subsidised by Government - Government says that in return for taxes, they'll keep some concept of property separate from the concept of whether or not you happen to have enough firepower to defend it. This, of course, doesn't actually work unless the Government is powerful enough to take down any group which might want to steal your property.

There are various alternatives to this Government-subsidised definition of property, some of which have been tried out small-scale, some larger scale. I'm not really sure why one specific definition is encoded into your definition of human rights (which, of course, doesn't match any human rights treaty currently in force anywhere).

On the bright side, with enough firepower, you can defend yourself from the Government and essentially become your own country and do whatever you want. Wee!

Sigh. Well, HP is doing their best to bring us into the paperless future, I suppose. Nice of them.
The topic of "dolphon language" reminded me of another very interesting approach I read about a while ago. I can't seem to find the article again right now, but the main points were as follows:

Apparently there are hints that bottlenose dolphins perceive their echolocation sense in a similar way than their vision sense. So in other words, they really "see" the objects that echolocation reveals to them. (In an experiment, dolphins were presented with an unfamiliar object in a vision-only setting. Then they were tasked to find the object among several decoys in an echolocation-only setting. The success rate was high above chance.)

If you assume that their auditory and visual senses are linked, the question comes to mind: What about non-echo sounds? Do they produce images as well? What about the sounds made by their kin?

Long story short, the article's hypothesis was that the "words" of dolphin language might actually be encoded images that dolphins are able to "decode" using the neural circuitry of their echolocation system.

What I find exciting about that idea is that it would give us humans a chance to access those images. After all, we know how echolocation works, so we could theoretically build a "decoder" ourselves. We could use this to actually test the hypothesis and - if successful - might use the images as a much better starting point for analyzing dolphin language than the raw sounds.
I meant 3rd party plugin installer, like DivX.

No, that some sociopath gains access to the perl6 repo and introduces subtle, plausibly deniable backdoors.

I have looked at Wikipedia. I saw that obvious vandalism, like inserting "HAHA PENIS" in the middle of an article about — I don't know — US presidential candidates, is detected quickly; sometimes it is even caught by filters before it can be saved. Fabricating citations about a fictitious Bhutanese author[1] or Aboriginal deity[2], on the other hand, can go unnoticed for months. This is exacerbated by the fact that your typical "counter-vandalism patrol" usually looks only for the former; even though most hoaxes aren't even especially sophisticated and fall apart after 15 minutes of research. But who can blame those people? It's the easiest way to score virtue points.

I've played with this, once upon a time it used to be a screensaver - you can run this headless now.

The idea to pair up worthy projects (think scientists folding proteins or doing something computationally intensive) with spare cycles is an old one.

I'm not sure how efficient this approach is. I got the impression when I tried to donate some cycles recently (spare servers) that its not widely used. Anybody has any experiences they would like to share? I'd love to hear.

The cost of the ink should in theory be next to nothing. You can buy ink from our local pound shop and mess around with drilling holes in your cartridges and hoping nothing goes wrong.

Interface comparisons check both, the value and the dynamic type. Describing that as "comparing vtables" is misleading.

It the types don't match, the operands are not considered equal. Type and value have to match for two interface values to be equal. How does that not make sense?

For mismatched dynamic types you can't meaningfully compare the values in the general case, so of course you need to consider types.

Very interesting reminder of the parallel that exists in the GBSP...

However, since Apple's focus is unequivocally (and technologically and commercially viably) on wireless headphones, the author does this fact a disservice by burying Apple's counter argument in the middle of the article:
