Their prices are usually quite close to Amazon, and for me it's worth just sticking to NewEgg to reward their customer service and anti-troll work.

Yeah, lots of ways to fudge. One exam, my friend Brian and I were allowed to skip the final and take our grade. So the rest of the class could go from failing, to getting a grade on a curve. There was that much gap between us and the rest.
Yes I think the notation is quite a stumbling block. Eg, As soon as I see an integral sign I am lost. I have no idea how to transform that into an algorithm.
Well, it's nice to have a uniform cell structure, and you can't make them out Clojure conses, because Clojure conses don't really have a cdr, not as such, as Clojure's cdr cannot contain arbitrary data.

Introducing the Robert Elder Software Linux Operating System
"Disney is a machine that monetizes fandom, and Twitter is pretty good about fan communities (modulo the conversation about abuse)."

I'd submit one of the ways in which Twitter is "pretty good" about fan communities, by being relatively permissive about IP they don't particularly care about, is precisely a way in which Disney is constitutionally incapable of being. Disney has long been notorious for being very, very heavy on the control side of its IP. Buying something because of a fan community that you plan to essentially immediately squash is a rather silly acquisition.

"Relatively permissive" here doesn't even have to mean IP abuse (which Disney certainly would squash), but even things like expressing unfiltered negative opinions. I just don't think Disney has the cultural DNA to deal with that in a way that even remotely resembles Twitter.
>It seems true even for the higher tier degrees too. It seems even a masters degree isn't a good indicator. In the past year alone I've watched several guys with masters enter and then promptly leave our startup due to having just absolutely no idea how to write software. :(

is this a problem with degrees or the interview process? How did they get the job without ever proving they knew anything about software?
Is it oriented toward businesses? Or is there an angle to create a more business-oriented version? Better ad payouts in my experience, and more likely to pay for a service.
My apologies, the fallacy used was ad hominem. By casting doubt on my comment by saying that I have Stockholm Syndrome he is overtly attacking my character by pointing out a psychological issue he perceives that I have, comparing my time with HP to, evidently, kidnapping and being a hostage. That's a poor argument. I should have made it more obvious.

They actually charge exactly the same for all of their ink per ounce (with the variable being the type of ink not the method of distribution), and frankly it is quite a lot more than even what was pointed out in the npr reference you show. A number of their inks make more per ounce than just about anything you can imagine. The reason the off-brand ink refilling cost is less than a new cartridge from a display has to do with packaging and distribution. HP has not figured out any magical way to get away from market forces. When they sell the authorized refill supplies, it is just ink, syringes, and instructions. No cartridge, no packaging, no marketing, no shipping.

Also, I don't believe I made myself clear enough. HP isn't trying to protect consumers. They are attempting to protect themselves from consumers. Remember I said "The cost of the customer service to deal with that alone is so massive for HP it makes one of the main budget line items at all of the board meetings." This isn't some argument to try to protect consumers. HP is out for their bottom line, plain and simple. That is not surprising to me.

Your car argument is interesting. The car maintenance industry is absolutely giant. I don't know about your car, but if I pick the wrong oil, the wrong filter, the wrong fluids in general, or the wrong part, my car stops working. And if I pick the wrong thing in a number of categories my warranty also stops working and if I take it back to the manufacturer, they don't fix it. I can use state of the art ratings systems, that is true, to decide if my purchase will, on the whole, be a good one. That is true.
I don't believe he was intending the plane to fly supersonic. Instead he was talking about using the design of the wings because they have a larger volume.
Or to call them on the phone, talk to them in person, send them an E-mail or letter.. You know, the things we all did in ancient times like 5 years ago?
Snapchat Spectacles and the Future of Wearables
What does a group spewing incorrect non-sense about reality have to do with morality?

Many times these groups takes immortal stances because of their detachment from reality. For example there is a huge correlation in people who don't care about the suffering global warming causes and religion. Its not really hard to understand either, many modern day american think Jesus will come in their lifetime, so why bother caring about 100 years from now.

It even works for things directly against rules in the book. Churchgoers are more likely to be for the death penalty even "thou shall not kill" is most of those religious books.

I am not saying all religious people are bad, just that religion does not filter out bad people or bad behavior effectively.
I don't think that matters will improve unless machine translation systems are built which understand the meaning of the words in the text which they are translating, and know the grammar of the source and target texts, just like people do.
Just like store owners pay rent for their building...

I'm not saying the rent seeking is good--on the contrary, I think it's very bad. But the fact is that your views on which is better for drivers are not shared by drivers. You're also only looking at the current situation--I have a lot more trust that taxi laws can be reformed than that a large amoral corporation whose business is built around loopholes in regulation will self-regulate against their own interests. Even if you think Uber is better for drivers now, I doubt that will be the case for long.
It gets cold in the Yukon - hard to breath there too. And radiation exposure? We're already slathering on sunscreen over most of planet Earth.

Lots of challenges everywhere. Got to pick your poison.
> If we want advancement in medicine, can we really do it without deep collaboration between biology and computer science?

There's an entire field for that already, it's called bioinformatics.
This 'proposal' seems to assume that the rest of the aircraft would be almost unaffected by the change, which is very unlikely.

Existing engines are designed to compress air, combust fuel, and recover energy from the exhaust to push air (to propel the aircraft) then compress more (to keep the cycle going). Once you are no longer combusting fuel, all of that compression is simply wasted energy. An electric aircraft is much more likely to have single-stage axial fans, with a much larger diameter than jets like the Concorde (because larger and slower fans are more efficient). This difference in propulsion will probably affect various other elements of airframe design.

As an aside, Elon Musk has mentioned VTOL as a possible feature of electric aircraft, and this makes a lot of sense. If the fans can be tilted (to provide part of the 'lift' for takeoffs and landings), it means that the airplane could have very small wings, which are usually good for efficiency, but cause problems while landing conventionally.
>(of many) factors that can trigger earthquakes.

Or slowly feed in energy that is stored and released when something else pushes the system far enough out of equilibrium that a quake happens.
Now crank up PowerShell, which is what I suspect xe is subtly getting at. (-:
Wings flex while in flight. Either the cells need to handle that stress or the wing needs to be super rigid. Neither is particularly easy to achieve.
To some extent, it has happened. Alice vs. CLS Bank killed a lot of software related patents. And post-grant administrative proceedings at the USPTO are killing patents at around an 85% rate for 1/10 the cost of a district court litigation.
I detect snark, but it's a true statement.
Quite. Even Concorde's inner windows were hot to the touch at the end of a flight. The wings would be extremely hot. They even used the fuel as air consorting heat transfer fluid, in an interesting design choice.
Maybe they could work on Thunderbird again; that's a product actually used that doesn't have many real competitors.
Nokia (and it's only just about in London). Other than Cambridge, Langley and Bristol there's very little in the UK at all.

> The only problem stems from our human projection of what Know means.

It's a little trickier than that. If you allow substitution of equals (the technical term for this is that your logic is "extensional" rather than "intensional") then you get this:

Phone(Mary) = Phone(Bill) = 555-1212

Knows(John, Phone(Mary)) ==> Knows(John, 555-1212)

> KnowBelongTo(John,Phone(Bill))

You mean:

KnowsPhoneNumberBelongsTo(John, 555-1212, Mary)

And yes, that works, but it gets rather unwieldly. You can try to fix this using second-order logic:

KnowsRelation(John, phone-of, Mary, 555-1212)

or third-order:

Knows(John, relation, phone-of, Mary, 555-1212)

but then your inference rules start to get rather hairy.
> No services really requires data transmission.

Some services do. For instance, Waze builds live traffic maps because all its users upload their locations / speed / etc.

> It's just the owners have decided to run it that way.

Which is their right, as long as the users give informed consent. What I would like to know is how, in practice, such consent can be sought or given.

> And a checkbox which links to 30 pages of legalese does not necessarily count as informed consent.

I'm not saying it does, necessarily. I'm asking what does count as informed consent? Can you give an example of consent done right?

Only for a brief time. As Twitter stood still and the rest of the ecosystem moves on (and the biological metaphor is fairly apt here), all the other things in the ecosystem would figure out how to eat Twitter's lunch. Twitter's value (such as you may think it is) would depreciate fairly quickly in that scenario. It's not a mint forever. It probably wouldn't even be a mint on the timescale that, say, the Marvel cinematic universe has been and will be a mint.
But if you take the ads of and it grows faster you need to see if the growth is worth the loss in short term revenue. Facebook was a perfect example.
AFAIK at this point the dumb TVs all have worse displays.

To even hint that the above breakthrough could possibly be relevant to this thread's subject would qualify as a form of quantum mysticism, wouldn't it ?
I wonder if Samsung is holding that one close just in case Google irks them with Android. Right now, it probably makes more sense monetarily for Samsung to stay with Android.
Most classic utilities were at one point or another provided privately - water, telephones, electricity are examples. In each of these examples the delivery infrastructure makes them a natural monopoly.

Almost any activity you can think of has been carried out by both the public and private sector in different societies (or the same one).

In all industries, very dominant firms are likely to see action from the state.
When we're on the topic of US propaganda, it's a good time to remind everyone about the Smith–Mundt Act, which regulates US government propaganda. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith–Mundt_Act
Everybody shows up for a sprint or two and the rest of the team sees how it works out.

How do you hire people without 2 weeks vacay to burn on this process?
Most people, I submit, don't log out of FB, they just close that browser tab. So, basically, most people are always logged into FB.

Next, there is no obvious relationship between the site and FB - it's some random article on some random other site, say the NY Times, on some random, say potentially embarrassing topic. However, there's a FB "like" button, or some other tracker.

Now, the site might just get some ID with demographic data (and hobbies and what have you). But FB now knows that you read that article (how could it have told you, otherwise, that John Smith read it?). That might not be a surprise to you, having some knowledge in the industry, but I submit that many if not most people find it both surprising and creepy.

Next, your argument seems to be that with some more education people would not find it surprising, and neither creepy, because adtech is so well behaved and under strict guidelines and "no evil" and all. So, at that point we'll just have to disagree.
What's the use of a supersonic plane that doesn't fly supersonic?
Edit. It's unclear what your defence of the concept using this tactic achieves. The whole article talks of this as for supersonic flight. There are fewer issues with subsonic flight for this idea, though many (see above and below) remain.
You don't need to worry about lighting the contraction/expansion from pressure and thermal differences alone is going to be interesting to see, put a battery in a low pressure chamber and see what happens to it.
I'm also wondering how they are going to deal with the temperatures and other aspects that can affect the batteries.

Solar Impulse flew at 15,000ft, a subsonic or transonic jet would be flying at around 35,000ft, the pressure at those altitudes is about 22-23 kPa and the temperatures are around -55 to -60c, and if he's aiming for supersonic he'll have another issue which is the fact that the temperatures of the aircraft can reach several 100's degrees C from the forces of friction alone.
I suppose it probably affects the total amount of litigation. If both parties know they will have to pay their own attorneys fees I'd expect less money to be spent on attorney's fees overall. That might also mean less time spent in court. If it does, perhaps that would be seen as good for the legal system (the courts themselves)?

"He is camped behind Google’s second property and recycles cans and assembles bikes from junk parts to get by."

This is where the reporter lost a lot of credibility, to me. Bike parts don't just appear from nowhere. The man he interviewed is operating a bike chop shop, and either he's too ignorant to know or too preoccupied with pushing his anti-Google agenda to care.
Oracle corporation actually made an industry out of making sure customers' data is protected. That's one of the reasons why Oracle database sells, and why it pretty much killed or ate all other competition in the relational database management system space. Just take a look at the encryption features and PKI / SmartCard support in the database, and I think we're done here.

Oracle might be stupid, but they're not dumb.
It seems like I forgot the actual point of my argument – "It’s a needed improvement, but still far from good".

Much of the difference you have to pay compared to what someone in another country has to pay is due to taxes or subsidies. Expats in the Philippines get taxed so heavily on bringing their motorcycles from home they will often tear them apart and ship them to the Philippines in separate boxes and declare those boxes as parts. Electronics is also heavily taxed here. Blame the government.

We also get volatile currency fluctuations, though as a US citizen, it goes to my advantage. The USD is at an 8 year high against the local PHP. This is the work of markets. We probably don't know why prices go up and down, but the changes are being blamed on the new president here. People see the USD as a safe haven. Now the US has the possibility of Trump, so who knows what happens there.

> Forgot to add: my salary in a it field is 1/3 of the same guy in the USA, yesterday I heard Trump promise to bring the jobs back to USA, why someone would pay 3 times for (almost) the same thing? I would not. I may pay 10 or 20 for a commodity but 3 times is too much.

Software developers in SV make significantly more on average than developers in the middle of the country. This works because these people create X times their salary in value and hiring is hard. As people make more money, the demand for housing causes rent / buy prices to skyrocket. As living expenses rise, people need to make more money just to survive.

On the other end are businesses with razor thin margins with skill requirements being little more than showing up to work.

You don't need to live in SV to get a well paying job (but location does help). Make sure that you are operating in an industry in which you have some ability to call the shots on the money you are making.
I could see how your "interest-graph" (continually updated, no less) is more valuable from a marketing perspective than your "real-life social graph".

There's more marketing-signal in knowing you're a techie than who your aunt is.
Another thumbs up for Brother, their consumer laser printers are now comparable in price to inkjet printers, and the toner is much less hassle and significantly less expensive per print. I've had no trouble with drivers on Linux either.
Didn't fit the story, apparently.

The poles are probably the best option for the first Hermean habitat, because the low axial tilt means that the poles are always a survivable temperature, and some polar craters are permanently shaded, with water ice inside.
Yet another throwaway acct. 20+ years large-scale ops and security, last five with one of the "big five" tech companies. £100K base plus stock worth £150-200K/year depending on which way the market wind was blowing on vesting dates.

Currently doing my own startup and cyber-security consulting for £750-900/day.
Now, going without Facebook or IM is "socially alienating"? People's social lives must be pretty fragile these days if they really require things that did not even exist for the majority of humanity's existence.
Brother's toner cartridges come with a return shipping label in the box, so you can send back your old cartridge from them to recycle.

I assume they refurbish and refill them and then sell them again.
I bought one of the Yeti tumblers for my daughter, who HAD to have one. $40. She dropped it and it literally shattered. Fast forward a couple of months, and I read online where the Ozark Trail brand at Walmart goes for $9.99 and is actually better at keeping the contents colder for longer. Dropping it did nothing but slightly scuff it, proving Yeti has nothing but mind share. I've told everyone I know to save their money and buy the Ozark Trail tumbler instead, as it's a better value.
I've been working on some for the past years. You should think of the interactions a vehicle will have. There are:

- vehicle to vehicle (V2V)

- vehicle to infrastructure (V2I)

- vehicle to cloud (V2C)

Each of those niches has niches of their own. I just finished working on the V2C niche by developing an API to move data between vehicles and updating them automatically (not realtime, though). What can you do with that kind of data? Well, if you have cars operating data (engine temperature, speed, etc.) you can come up with a bunch of interesting stuff.

Don't wait too much. This self driving market is reaching peak hype soon.

EFF calls on HP to disable printer ink self-destruct sequence
i think there is a lot of embarrassment discussing salary because it shows how you're valued by the company. I get uncomfortable discussing mine because i don't want to provoke jealousy. However, if i was paid less than most i'd find it embarrassing to admit the company found me less valuable than others.
...amazingly, think of themselves as good people. They even go to church, amazingly enough.

Why would going to church be evidence that they are good people?

Look at how people act, not what they say. When you look at crime rates, divorce statistics, and so on, atheists seem to behave more morally than evangelical Christians.

I guess my point is never underestimate "incentive-caused bias"

Take that a step farther. When you already believe yourself to be a worthless sinner who has a blank check of forgiveness from Jesus, what incentive do you have to not act like a worthless sinner?
I would definitely be interested in hearing about this if you have the time.
Wings can't be rigid, the fluttering would shred them to pieces or worse transfer to the main body and shred it pieces (tho at 35-40K ft it doesn't really matter what breaks apart ;)).
Marginal? Holy shit, how isn't this completely transparent and dead, like my post will be?

Samsung is pulling in about $4B profit per quarter from their smartphones. "Marginal"? In what universe is $16B per year "marginal"? Certainly not this universe.

Just as a point of reference, Samsung's smartphone profits are greater than Walmart's profits. It's greater than the overwhelming bulk of world corporations.
I'm sure it must be nice on the ground in reality as so many people want to live there, but it looks positively dystopian on a satellite image. Hundreds and hundreds of identical crammed blocks on a rigid grid with no green spaces in them. It looks like in some places you'd have to walk six blocks to reach any kind of open space.

Other big cities like London are crowded as well but at least no two streets are the same and there's always some breathing space.

I had to squint to look at the images on that site. The designs may or may not be a good idea, but if we can't read them then it doesn't matter. Bit of a poor show from whoever published the article.

Looking at the accompanying text, there are some problems with his ideas. Some of that "supporting" material is also about fail-safe design and heat distribution. A copper plate running through the middle of a battery will draw the heat out nicely. These batteries are all good and well until they fail, at which point you have a huge problem. With fuel, you can dump it. What do you do with you battery wing?

One of the massive problems is energy density, but that's not the only problem. With the batteries embedded into the wings, you need you to figure out how to effectively charge them too. Planes can't afford to sit for hours on the ground between flights and swapping wings over is not going to fly with safety regulations very well.

The intentions are good but I'm not convinced there is something viable here.
Yes, this is a concern for most people, but the GameBoy used to fit perfectly into my pockets, so I really don't care.
