For some reason, I thought of Jay Leno when you said that. Jay is a fairly high-profile car collector. But I bet if you retain Jay to speak remotely, he expects a driver. These days, having wine with dinner, then driving, might end up badly.

You also bring up the F150 and Shelby - I drive a Nissan Frontier ( D40, Navara ) mainly because I get truck-function and it sits lower and doesn't corner-dive like an F150. You can't confuse it with a Shelby but it's plenty of ... "hoss". The only way I'd have either instead of the compromise is that I had a rolling stock fetish (and was appropriately resourced to feed it ) and was collecting them.

I've seen what the F150 is really used for. It's a work truck in its bones.

Also also - Larry McMurtry tied the cowboy myth back to, of all things, some variation on Le Morte d'Arthur. That's not particularly American :)
If the strategy worked, that would mean that calls were overpriced. Why would that be? Why wouldn't their price reflect their value?

Since indexes by themselves have such low overhead costs, more complex strategies have difficulty generating superior returns.
Not bad at all.. a few problems with the scrolling though :)
Naive question: one of the things that makes a game like Dark Souls so strong is how tightly-integrated the map is. It feels crafted. How difficult would it be to procedurally create something like that (I assume it would be very)?
>The person who buys an diesel f150 or a Shelby Mustang isn't the sort of person who likes being driven around by other people

Indeed, it feels hard like a hard message to convey on these boards: some people (me) enjoy the act of driving a car. And almost every reasonably wealthy culture seems to like watching other people do it competitively.

False. Most probes on Mars are powered by solar. E.g. Opportunity is still going strong (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opportunity_(rover)). Other upcoming landers are also solar powered.

Mission design dictates whether solar power is enough to satisfy your requirements. For Curiosity, they wanted to go faster and longer with more power than solar would have given them considering the size of the rover (i.e. not much space to put solar panels on, which yields in lower power available).
I can we can reasonably assume they believe politics and business ought to be partitioned from one another.

My opinion has always been that right brains and left brains really do think differently and comparing and contrasting is very important for metacognition.

As an Enlightenment scholar I often have trouble with with once said:

“He who knows only his own side of the case knows little of that. His reasons may be good, and no one may have been able to refute them. But if he is equally unable to refute the reasons on the opposite side, if he does not so much as know what they are, he has no ground for preferring either opinion... does not even understand that very well".

That quote is commonly known, but I find the next part most interesting.

"Nor is it enough that he should hear the opinions of adversaries from his own teachers, presented as they state them, and accompanied by what they offer as refutations. He must be able to hear them from persons who actually believe them...he must know them in their most plausible and persuasive form."

Maybe the term has been overused to the point of meaninglessness, but I don't think so. The particular fascistic ideas Drumpf's movement expresses are:

* Nationalism
* A notion of racial or ethnic purity (see for example, the 2nd-generation American judge who wasn't *really* American because of his Mexican heritage)
* Attraction to 'strong' leadership
* The concept of a natural aristocracy (eg. based on race or national identity)
* A theory of historical decline, often combined with a promise of some great destiny (make America great *again*)
* High praise for cultural traditions of the in-group (divided on racial, ethnic or national lines). This can make it easy to confuse facism with conservatism, but for non-facist conservatives, ethnic divisiveness isn't a desirable goal.
* Localist perspective on all issues (no tendency towards globalism or universalism). Only the interest of the in-group are considered.
* Strong masculine/feminine divide. Particular emphasis on masculine qualities for the state and its leaders.

I've seen some journalists using the word 'Authoritarian' to try do work-around the overuse of 'Facist', but that's actually less precise accurate: authoritarianism doesn't entail the kinds of ethnic purity ideology which is critical to fascism (and Drumpf).

WFS is stereo++. The sweet spot is much wider, and if you move around you hear a convincing illusion of getting closer/further from the virtual sound sources.

The article accounts for inflation. If you don't do that and you take an average over the entire history of the S&P500 then you get returns of 9.0% annually. That's not so far off from 10%.

Not accounting for inflation is fair enough in Dave Ramsey's case since he's all about tying to get people to invest more. Since people's cash is going to be hit just as hard by inflation as stocks it isn't necessary to account for it.
Each process can be ptraced by only once process at any time, so if the malicious program want to avoid debuggers, they can attempt a ptrace() on their own process. If it fails, they know they are being debugged.
I am taking the exact opposite stance: now I let myself get infuriated at the very beginning of the first phone call. As much as I hate being angry, I have come to embrace the efficiency of the attitude.

I think humans get really motivated to do things for mainly 2 reasons: 1. because they gain something from completing the task (money, self satisfaction, social status, gratitude, etc.) 2. because it would cost them not to complete the task.

I noticed it myself: I am working harder for my clients that are more annoying to me. I want to make more efforts to reward my clients who are not being douchebags, but the truth is that I have more to gain from being at peace with the annoying ones that being nice to the nice ones.

It's the same reason why demanding people get upgraded in planes. The same reason that you can get a table at any reataurant if you're loud enough. Or that your internet is fixed faster if you shout through your phone.

The question is: is it more unpleasant for you to let yourself be angry or is it more unpleasant for you to not get what you want?
1. contemporary central processing units have large instruction and data caches.

2. ptrace() modifies the currently debugged program.

3. if the program currently being debugged is sufficiently small, it might end up in the processor's instruction cache.

4. instruction cache invalidation, at least on some processors like MC68000 family, causes crashes.

5. since ptrace() effectively performs the equivalent of self-modifying code, how is instruction cache invalidation avoided?
Crap, that was bad. Fixed. And removed the insane unrolling, now 2x is sufficient.

No, you can contribute photos directly in the Google Maps interface. It's consolidated with other contribution features like reviews and map editing (many people don't know that Google Maps has a public map editor). It's all part of a program called "Local Guides" that awards badges and points and perks like free Google Drive storage. The incentives seem designed to reward quick reviews much more than high quality photography though.
Wow, I really enjoyed the cloud-based features of Codebender when I was learning Arduino. At that time, my main Mac was having repairs done and I only had a Chromebook. Codebender IDE worked just fine on the Chromebook and I built many projects on it. I also really enjoyed the hosted libraries feature because I could find the files I needed quickly.
It was a great platform for those getting started with microcontrollers.
I've seen this as well. Alot of my friends are using Airbnb vs hotels. I've seen two reasons. One is solely fiscal the cost savings. The other is being treated more like a local. By that I mean hotels I usually hear of locations that feel touristy. While hosts direct to local venues.

I'm a fringe point, Ive always preferred saving money for experience. So I'm used to hostels, couch surfing, etc. I would only touch hotels if it was part of a rewards program.

I'm also a host. My rooms are priced at 12 and 25 a night. I've noticed two trends and seen it backed up via host forums.

Firstly travelers are expecting hotel quality at a fraction of the price. They're expecting travel toiletries, clean to the point of shining. I purchased a number of travel size soaps and one customer raided my entire supply. This stuff adds up. I can buy some items in bulk. But not at the discount rate of hotels. I also offer food when I'm making it. Some customers outright asked me where's breakfast. Oddly ive seen this primarily with younger people. Older, 40+, join the household. Cook with us and buy ingredients.

Secondly I'm seeing Airbnb as a short term rental place. After 2 weeks listed I had one room booked for 6 months the other for 4 months. These are largely people who are just moving to the area, and finding their grounding. Or I've seen a lot of visas doing short term contracts.

I can pretty much boil my listing down too. Either a short term rental. Or a stopping point between Philadelphia and Baltimore/DC.
5 Most Important Email Marketing Statistics
Well thanks for the rational and detailed explanation as to why. Moving on.
When the time scale is seconds and you are in your middle age death is not what's on your mind. But when you're talking about years then that changes. Every year has a statistical likelihood of being your last, the older you get the bigger that chance (once you're out of infancy). Even if the distribution were flat then you'd be looking at something along the lines of 3/70th so roughly 4.5% or so for three years.

I've buried enough people in their middle age by now to not take the next three years for granted.

You can't take it with you.

>To suggest that Trump has 'very limited' political experience when he's been rubbing shoulders with the country's political elites for a few decades is simply disingenuous.

To argue that he's remotely as experienced as Hilary Clinton is simply disingenuous.

>gotchange's whole point is about expecting more from politicians, and asking why the expectations are lowered on the Trump side.

gotchange's whole point was that somehow, something (not sure what) is biased against Hilary here. Trump is being skewered about this on every channel, on every website. What more do you want? This is a massive scandal, and I'm sure there's more to come.

>gotchange's point is that some people give Trump a lower bar of expectations because he's an 'outsider' or 'new at this'

No, my expectations are lower for Trump because he has a history of being a buffoon. But you do realize there's a difference between "expectation" and "acceptance"?

For what it's worth, I think they are both terrible candidates. I have no idea how Trump got this far, but I don't think there's another candidate that Hilary could have possibly beat.

> How can Airbnb's revenue have almost doubled while still losing market share across the board?

Trivial: Because the market size increases. More people are renting hotels/airbnb + more often + for longer durations.

For starters, I believe that comparisons shouldn't oppose AirBnb and Hotels because they don't appeal to the same demographics (though there is some overlap).

Except I'm on one of the biggest touristic area in France, and hotels here a loosing customers. We got less tourists than before, and I can see many people using RBNB. In the mean time, some people close to me are talking about being fired from their hotel because of the economy.

While I know my situation is not a representative sample, I do travel a lot and observed the same thing in various places, including other countries. I discussed it with other travelers, and they reported the same.

So I wouldn't conclude that everything is ok for hotels. The story needs more data.

I get tired of the fees charged for electronic transfers. It should be the other way around. Many places will tack on 3% if you use a credit card. Paypal is what, 1.5%? Wiring money is expensive, Western Union is even worse. Added up over a year, all those "convenience fees" and crap can be a hefty bill.

Checks still have zero transaction costs for me and the depositor. When people claim I didn't pay them, it's nice to show them the cancelled check with their signature on it.

When bargaining with someone, showing them a signed check made out to them can clinch the deal :-) Of course, cash is even more persuasive, but I don't care to carry around cash and again, I like having a cancelled check as a receipt.
Fair enough... but moving past bottlenecks with any platform tends to be so.
