We're using Caddy in production. It's working quite well so far. It's a really smart helpful project.

I'd recommend reading the documentation. We had a nasty surprise when Caddy decided all our backend servers were broken and it removed them. After that we stopped naively running the proxy with the default settings. https://caddyserver.com/docs/proxy

Sort of off topic, I agree with your sentiment. However, has the word defoo'ing come to have a broader or more generic meaning? I was under the impression that defoo stood for "departure from family of origin" specifically.
This is fishy. The entire point of encrypted data is that one message cannot be distinguished from another without decryption (which would require the private key). In other words, the entire premise shouldn't work. This means that either bad encryption is being used (i.e. statistical information about the data is leaked) or the good results we see are just noise. Or, the whole thing is a scam to get funding: the best algorithms are planted, and the company just shuffles BTC between accounts it controls.
Yes - but I wasn't quite a beginner. The usual recommendation for adult books for beginners is Schlink's The Reader, though I found it dim-witted. I'd stick with Harry Potter and get a dictionary for an ebook reader.
Yes. But there is variability per institute and so was trying to be conservative in the lower threshold of the percentage cut.

The university cut does make some sense. There are a lot of services on which PI's rely. Administration to handle hiring processes. Building maintenance and plumbing. But per usual, instead of just covering costs, it is viewed as revenue on which to grow the university (and admin pay).

Actually, I am not sure whether university cut factors into funding decisions at NIH and the like.
That's not his point. From the article's headline: "did it in under a year"

The author is being very disingenuous with his headline.
The goal is to find a box where A² + B² + C² = G², and where all four numbers are integers: 3² + 4² + 12² = 13², except it is not the only goal.
Hmm. Maybe you're right.

But let me try to push back.

If we're trying to draw human-consumable wisdom about the state of the world from data, simply capturing a snapshot and then applying some basic analysis is one thing.

Creating self-improving mechanisms for doing this is another, even if the latter use statistics in the process. Perhaps in a similar way that Statistics uses Algebra yet is distinct in its description and capabilities.

I'm not convinced you're wrong here, just trying to talk through it.

It looks like you missed the point of my comment. I'm saying that Numerai won't be able to distinguish between zero alpha and positive alpha models, if all they're doing is running historical simulations on black boxes.

Beyond his Higgs Boson papers, the rest haven't been cited particularly much. Not indicative of a genius. Sure, no-one is calling him stupid, but there are potentially many other people who have changed the field as much, or more than him. Just because he won a Nobel Prize for one work doesn't make him immune to criticism.

Buffet's wager is a trick, which works on simple people who don't understand statistics.

When you take a group of hedge funds, they end up being a very good proxy for the market. At about 20, they will be almost indiscernible.

So - a passive fund, buying the market, with lower fees, should outperform.
In an effort to both help and ensure I am responding to the strongest form of an argument, and not just picking apart easy weaknesses, would you care to bolster your claims that:

- freely publishing course materials to the internet-at-large is the same thing as providing educational services for which the universities receive federal funding

- services provided by institutions receiving money from the government includes all services provided--pending your clarification on how releasing information equates to a service provided--entirely, without exemption, and not just those services to which federal funds are directly allocated

- applying federal compulsion to meet desired accessibility goals should apply to individuals who are not the official recipients of the benefits of the programs funded by the federal government (in this instance, meaning the general public of internet users who are non-students desiring to consume freely available information)

I find this automatic set of claims/assumptions to be highly dubious, as it equates releasing information--even if organized by originating course, thus giving the appearance of being an "online course", but actually lacking any involvement or service from the university beyond releasing the material, and thus not really an "online course"--to providing education to enrolled students (for which the university receives funding and is inarguably subject to accessibility restrictions with associated penalties). I think these are, if one does not ignore the nuances of the circumstances, quite different things that weaken the argument for considering them to be services provided by the university. How do you enshrine this in a principle that applies to all actors? Does everything a university sponsors or engages in fall under these principles? Meaning, because they received federal funding for programs A, B, and C, do programs X, Y, and Z fall under federal purview and penalty, as well? Should the internet public really be granted the latitude to expect they can have their cake and eat it, too, where consuming course material for personal edification as a non-student is concerned?

You can check my much lengthier thoughts elsewhere in the thread on this, if you'd like. Also, let's exclude your "They certainly have the means" comment. That, to me, diminishes the force of your argument for principles by concluding it as an argument that the alleged principles only matter because the affected party has the perceived means. I think that severely weakens the case for why this isn't just a grab to hold an entity to a higher standard because they have the money to pay for the burden.

We're actually on the same page -- I'm totally crediting the network effect. Music bloggers have a tight-knit community, and even if I was a smaller music blog, I reckon I'd have had a pretty good chance of similar success.
> This reminds me of Palmer Luckey getting "disappeared" by Facebook, which I didn't think was ethical. In a truly democratic country, taking a different (not to say, completely mainstream) political stance shouldn't threaten one's livelihood.

I would not buy a Rift because there is no way on God's green earth that I would reward Palmer Luckey monetarily for supporting "shitposting" even if it was not directly related to the kinds of people (/pol/ dross and others) who have issued death and rape threats to people I know and care about. That is, in a way (a small way), "threatening his livelihood". I also don't buy video games made by EA because I think they are a company that has some real bad practices. That is, in a way (a small way), "threatening the livelihoods" of everybody who works there. We live as political beings, and that goes beyond what you say to what you do. Buying a USB sound card (which I just did a few moments ago) on Amazon is an expression of multiple political beliefs: that I am okay with large retailers over small ones in some situations, that I am okay with purchasing imported items, particularly from China, given the price of the item (i.e. I'm not willing to pay more than X% for "Made in the USA"). Probably a few others that I don't consciously recognize, at the moment. You can't opt out of being a political creature because you live in a goddamned polity. You can only take responsibility for how your actions impact others, and you can suffer the slings and arrows of what those others believe in return.

And there is nothing undemocratic about refusing to associate, monetarily or otherwise, with somebody you don't like. There is something undemocratic about attempting to levy laws saying that they can't participate in the political process. Conflating the private responses of private parties and the public actions of the government is at best misguided and at worst dishonest.
I also use Toggl, paired with either Jira or Trello depending on the client. To solve the annoying data entry step I built a small tool. It lists tasks with a "play" button to start the clock. When done or done for now I can stop the clock, the tool saves the time spent and potentially updates the issue status (or moves the card)
But the scale isn't arbitrary; even mathematicians, who are notorious for low output, have more than one paper every two years.

The point is that in the West we have made significant improvements in the equal treatment of women and we are continuing to improve. Yes it should be both but to compare the treatment of women in Muslim countries to the suggestions you made is disingenuous at best.
The "insight" would be in the form of a falsifiable claim, i.e. that ML will be bigger than the advent of statistics in terms of its ability to improve our understanding of the world.

It's a claim, nothing more.
`apt-get install php` and you're done. Seriously. Xampp is trivial too.
All trading (up to epsilon error) done by retail and institutional investors is with HFT as a counterparty -- disrupting HFT has direct consequences on the bid-ask spread they're capable of maintaining (in the worst case, they'll have to shut off their market making) and consequently affects the cost of trading for all market participants, not just HFT.
I thought the main reason for it was more regulation of high frequency trading and its adverse effects on market stability. Making money from it is a lower priority, thats what capital tax is for.
If you think adding variable pitch propellers to a multirotor is "simple," you're sorely mistaken :-)
I heard fingerprints described as "Authentication, not authorisation", which I think is a better description of the role they play (on the iPhone, at least), and the role they should play.

They authenticate who you are, they aren't trivial to fake. However, they shouldn't authorise access to a device on their own. Your fingerprint works as a somewhat more secure, medium term swipe-to-unlock for your phone.
> Niantic made all the wrong moves.

The problem is that Niantic recreated Ingress instead of creating Pokemon. So, the Pokemon players are leaving after the initial hype. The worst part is that Niantic has scads of data as to what game the players want to play and has failed to implement it.

The other piece to this is that it really seems like Niantic don't have a stake in whether Pokemon Go continues to succeed. I suspect Niantic was desperate, Nintendo beat them up in negotiations, gave them a fixed payment, and then flogged them mercilessly. The terribly slow pace of reaction reeks of:

"<American side> We don't automatically get a percentage of success, so we're not going to implement that without more money."

"<Japanese side> Well, let me discuss that with my manager. But we expect you to be honorable and fix this anyway."

"<American side> Uh, yeah. Sure. We'll work real hard on the promise that we might get paid when we're already having to do WAY more than we expected in terms of support given what you paid us. Yeah. We'll get right on that." Rolls eyes, and goes back to team "Do the MINIMUM you need to keep it from burning down and NOTHING else".
There's a difference between being neutral on political questions and being neutral on crimes against humanity. Knowingly and deliberately assisting in a genocide is illegal; supporting fringe political candidates is fortunately not.
Personally, I think we can start by continuing the work HRC and Obama were doing at the beginning of this election to separate Trump from mainstream Republicanism. They've stopped doing that, now that they believe HRC's victory is a foregone conclusion. Now they're trying to tether the GOP to Trump to help downticket races. I think they're making a mistake. I also think that the country needs a loyal opposition, and a voice for limited government and humility in the state's role in regulating behavior and business. And I say this as a loyal Democrat.

But that's exactly what we're saying here: support for Trump is not normal support for the Republican party and its ostensible ideals. Trump is an authoritarian white nationalist and a con-artist. He's unfit to be counted alongside Thomas Dewey, Mitt Romney, or Barry Goldwater. He victimizes those in "his" party who feel compelled to support him. His enablers, the Giulianis and the Thiels, bear a special culpability in attempting to normalize Trump to the Republican party. And Thiel's supporters bear some culpability in trying to normalize Thiel.
Anyone who thinks that was the only (or even the primary) driver of Microsoft's success doesn't understand the dynamics of the market (and isn't it interesting that you thought of Microsoft specifically?).

Certainly plenty of people thought so at the time (including myself, as well as Microsoft's execs, or they wouldn't have done it), but although without the underhanded tactics they would have had a somewhat smaller market share and correspondingly smaller profit margins, in hindsight they would still have been the dominant platform vendor for desktops, office suites, and back office servers.

It turns out that Microsoft's strategy of sucking customers in with 'Better Together' all-MS integrated offerings, never making a customer have to consider another vendor because some custom in house software they rely on won't run anymore due to an upgrade (no matter how poorly), and as a distant second, introducing breaking changes for competing vendors' offerings wherever they could (eg. 'Windows isn't done until Lotus won't run', and even that tactic was eventually abandoned due to the overhead it introduced), was all they needed in order to maintain and grow their early lead.

Your constraints are rather simplistic given the people behind this. It is possible, that all of the factors you've just described, are encoded in the data set.

If Hillary (or Trump) say things so despicable that could reasonably get you fired if you weren't repeating a presidential candidate, then we should despise anyone who repeats those words or explicitly supports those words.

I'm not currently aware of things that Hillary said that would be considered independently reprehensible if my coworker said them, but if I missed it I'd like to hear it, but if such statements exist I would have no problem saying anyone who repeated such statements should be despised.

If someone says they support some weird tax plan, it also doesn't matter whether some mainstream candidate proposed it, that is simply never grounds for disciplinary action. If someone says that women simply don't belong in the board room, that is grounds for disciplinary regardless of which party candidate said it before you.
It is interesting to note, that in a consumer focused market such as the US, highly competitive areas consider "the customer is always right" (I.e. catering and hospitality). In oligopolistic niches, the customer is unimportant (I.e. broadband provision), and in monopolistic niches, such as media consumption, "the customer is always a criminal".

It says a great deal about the market conditions of the media industry.
One important aspect of memory is that you don't access all of it all the time. So I'm not sure if heat is such a problem here.
Are you familiar with IPFS pubsub? Would you be able to link some information about the implementation/usage?

I'm quite surprised to hear what you said. I've been following multiple Github Issues on IPFS pubsub, and none of them (that i followed) announced success/etc. I thought it was still in the planning phase.

The European Union is looking for a way to fill the budget hole that will inevitably appear after Brexit. The current EU budget is set for years 2014-2020 and Great Britain is the third largest net contributor to it, behind only Germany and France.

Fixing the budget may get nasty, since the EU countries may have to increase the contributions or slash the expenses or EU bureaucrats may have to accept a decrease in wages. Net contributors like Germany or France will not want to contribute more, since they have their own problems to solve internally and the nationalist parties are on the rise there (Marie Le Pen and Alternative fur Deutschland). If the budget is decreased it will further alienate the East and South European countries. And euro bureaucrats will not simply accept smaller wages.

Also after Brexit the average EU income will decrease so some regions may no longer qualify for subsidies. Slow economic growth, European banks problems, a migration crisis, Germany's wealth dependency on export that is expected to falter, a conflict with Russia, all this won't help in finding a new, acceptable budget.

In the current situation the EU is ready to embrace any solutions that will increase the budget without causing too much friction within the bloc. FTT seems to meet this goal.

You're making a mistake that seems to be common in the US. You're assuming politics can just be excluded or ignored somehow. It's an idea that is utterly ridiculous.

Politics is about designing how humans live together. Everything you do or say that somehow has an effect on another human being, whether it is direct or indirect, whether it changes or reaffirms the status quo is political.

Continueing to do business with Thiel is just as political as to stop doing business with him. To pretend otherwise only shows both how privileged and ignorant of politics you are.

No, it's what happens when large numbers of people decide they care about safety and security more than they care about freedom. That doesn't necessarily make it any better, but to attribute this outcome to mindlessness is to badly miss the point. The first step to solving a problem is to understand what the problem actually is.

Beyond your US criticism, I think the main lesson is how you can wash the media while people think they are not missing every breakthrough story.
Nah, it's not going to happen. Especially because that "50/50" number isn't even close to being a true measurement.

The survey covered a whole ~40,000 people out of the ~11 million pro developers in the world. That's nothing.

The numbers also don't jive at all with the empirical evidence. Walk into any small, medium or large business IT shop that employs programmers and you'll find Windows more than any other OS. If they're running Linux it's in a VM on Windows.

Macs are still extremely rare for anyone outside of Mobile developers.

What do you think Enterprise devs use? Not Macs...
That's something the "do expressions" ECMAScript proposal is meant to solve:

{do {
if (cond1 && cond2)
<div>foo</div>
else
...
}}

If JSX decides to implement "implicit" "do expressions", I suppose it would just look like this:

{
if (cond1 && cond2)
<div>foo</div>
else
...
}

Because the stakes are different this time. You can support anyone, even Ted Cruz and I'll continue to do business with you, while disagreeing with almost everything you say. But Trump threatens the survival of American democracy. Trump threatens world peace. This is not a normal politician. He channels what fascist dictators do: hate, fear, violence, a complete disconnection or disinterest in what the Truth actually is.

There's also a distinction between the corporation's position and the position of the individuals that make up the corporation. Politics are not transitive: just because you believe something does not mean your business partner believes it, nor should it.
Thanks, I see it now! The first part of my question is still unanswered though..
Trying to shame someone who has different political beliefs via social pressure seems like bullying to me. One of the big reasons why so many people are voting for Trump is because people like you (and liberals in general) like to shame people for beliefs by calling them racists, sexists, homophobes and all that.
Also: driving is experiencing the change of landscape, culture and the inhabitants bit by bit (assuming frequent stops), rather than to have the illusion that there is an aluminum tube stretching from say Berlin to Barcelona. Flying for me is business.
I'm assuming exactly what i said. A job at walmart means another person on government aid, which is obviously (mostly) true.

By (loose) definition, non-living wage employment results in needing assistance - ie government assistance. Whether you agree with it or not is another story.

I'm not saying Walmart shouldn't exist because employees are on government assistance. I'm saying that Walmart is profiting off of this assistance.
