> The ability to rent out their home when they go away for a long weekend or take a couple weeks of vacation somewhere, most likely financing a good portion of their rent or vacation.

They never had it. Rentals under 30 days have always been illegal in NYC.

> Affordable ways for family to visit, especially nearby to where they live...

Out of town friends and family aren't renters. I'd love it if my neighbours would subsidize my out-of-country family's travel, too, but for some reason, this doesn't seem to be their top priority.

> What many renters would really celebrate...

Yes, they would celebrate that very much. In the meantime, every little bit helps.
I'm introverted, but still enjoy working in an open office space than in the cube farm. Isolation is worse than emotional drainage from interacting with people in my opinion.

Although I will admit it is hard to start my side project after work and is probably due to being drained.
> Hotels not only pay taxes, they provide direct and indirect employment for a lot of people, they have standards to meet, they provide insurance for their guests and many other things.

And they can be held accountable for the behavior of their guests and their effect on their neighbors. That is a big deal.
Unclear. For the first few years of this administration you heard less about it under Peña Nieto, but the estimated numbers keep climbing up, so it is most likely that was media spin for the most part. Also, there is the Ayotzinapa mass kidnapping/murdering of 43 students [1] which happened during his administration and where many people believe the federal government is at least complicit in hindering the Inter-American Human Rights Commission's investigation on the issue [2]. Of course, that is just one anecdotal datapoint (although a particularly shocking one). In general, the feeling is that we got the worst of both worlds: a PRI that is as authoritarian and as hostile to the press as that of the 80's and 90's and yet when it comes to controlling the cartels and local governments, it has as weak of a grip as the Calderon administration did.

Somewhat unrelated, but reinforcing your point about it being corrupt, we keep finding that president Peña Nieto owns quite a few houses he shouldn't be able to afford: [3], [4]

I'm not sure your point. That they expect profits to continue without the credits? I guess we will see. Not sure how this invalidates anything I wrote. I care less about projections than financial statements. Those credits composed a good chunk.
I honestly can't tell when you're being sarcastic, when you're trolling and when you honestly aren't getting something.

The market you seem to think doesn't exist absolutely does. It has been well served for well over a decade, in regional malls and more recently online.

What the OP is offering is a service above and beyond what can be achieved with a quick photoshop filter and a large format printer. They are trying to communicate that his product is qualitatively different from this - a unique, handmade piece of art. That is their entire value proposition.

This isn't about trying to produce a knock-off of a photoshop filter with cheap Chinese labour.
The standard Java library includes a JavaScript interpreter, so there has to be a parser for object literals in there somewhere.
That's a pretty cool use of a twitter bot.
"Linux subsystem for Windows is really appealing."
Have you actually tried it out?

I thought nobody anymore believed in this after the first versions came out and people actually had a chance to try it in action. There are endless amounts of bugs, unimplemented features, complications between 2 filesystems, permissions, applications etc.

When MS announced this I was pretty hopeful. Not that I would change my dev-computer from way superior macOS to Windows, but that when I'm at home gaming on my Windows PC and I get some cool idea, I could do some small development or create simple prototypes without changing from my desktop to my laptop. After trying it out for real I don't belive anymore this "linux" subsystem thingy is ever going to be anything more than niche PoC.

> What about when someone calls in a sexual assault - are there protections for their privacy?

How do you think the company gets the 911 calls? You should focus your privacy concerns upstream.

> I'm not sure I'd just leave my family in the house with no plan other than to videotape what could be a violent criminal in the heat of the moment.

Right, but so what? Someone else might, or might be able to from their window. And if not, you weren't going to anyways.

> Also, what relationship does this company have with a user once that user gets shot in the chest

What relationship does Google have to a movie-viewer who doesn't like the movies playing in the cinema that they asked Maps to direct them to?

> for running around and videotaping an armed robbery with their flashlight beaconing their position and activity to the criminal?

You can choose to move away from the alerts, you know... The app doesn't compel you, it only informs you.

I can see many non-violent but interventionary tactics people could use. A pastor could use it, and respond to the 'Children harassing an old man' call the website uses as an example. Not immediately, as if they could stop any ongoing violence, but later to try to find the perpetrators and reach out to them.
It was neither, it was a rhetorical question since the comment I responded to was discounting the value of the Studio's screen because it didn't have as much resolution as the 5k iMac.
True, but I think it tentatively proves it's possible, if not effective, long term.
> What will failure look like?

Failure will be the long, slow death of macOS.

First, content producers will abandon the Mac. Content producers have been the dominant part of the Mac's customer base for as long as the Mac has existed, but over the last few years Apple has been increasingly neglectful of that segment of their market. Letting the Mac Pro die on the vine, discontinuing Aperture, removing ports from the MacBook Pro, etc. At some point, the pro market will get sick of it and abandon ship, and this is twice as likely with Microsoft going out of their way to court creative professionals.

With the pros gone, there won't be a huge market for Macs anymore. There will be two types of people left: those who want a Unix machine with a user-friendly UX and iOS/watchOS/tvOS users who want a PC that will offer comprehensive integration with their gadgets. Those markets aren't huge.

The enthusiasts are a fickle market: they're just as likely to follow the pros in their exodus for most of the same reasons. On top of that, Windows 10 is becoming more and more attractive: the new Linux subsystem will scratch that "Unix box with friendly UI" itch just fine while also having all the compatibility benefits of running the most popular desktop operating system in the world (no more compromises for gamers!).

The consumers are going to find that the extra integration with iDevices isn't really a big deal, especially if the iDevices are their main machines. If you mostly use your iPad when you're at home, do you really need to keep buying new Macs? Why not just keep an old Mac around in case something comes up where you need to use a desktop and just not buy another? And if your old Mac does die, you can always just save some money and buy a cheap Windows PC... sure, you won't get Continuity, but did you ever really use it anyway?

So once the pros go, macOS and the Mac line will be on life support for a few more years, marketshare continuously shrinking until Apple stops updating the product line entirely, shifting to release only security updates, and then it'll stagnate a few more years before Apple stops Mac sales entirely. Just like the classic iPod.
That is pretty cool. Oddly enough something I've been thinking about would be a high dpi "ribbon" screen, something that is perhaps 14 - 16" wide by 3 - 4" tall. To sit just behind my nice mechanical keyboard. That screen would have application specific tool bars with large icons and easy to tweak controls (sliders, buttons, etc). That would allow me to give over my "big" display to the project workspace, whether it was a circuit, MCAD design, or illustration. The "special sauce" being that I could render to it as a screen and it would have multi-touch capable gestures for the controls.

I prototyped some of that with a mimo 10" touchscreen[1] but in my vision touching a control on the 'ribbon' screen doesn't steal the mouse pointer :-). I've been playing lately with some ST Micro 32 bit parts that can drive a display and use BT LE to communicate back to the PC. It may be possible to "download" control panels to the screen and then get the feedback through a BTLE handler rather than trying so somehow hook the event handler of a standard App and have it take control selection events from this screen/non-screen entity.

So if you find a long and narrow high DPI screen, DVI, MPI, or even VGA driven would be ok. And a capacitive touch layer, I'd love to get one of those to play with.

This is what you wrote:

> Docker is a developer tool, not a container runtime.

It's just not true, and that's why I responded.
You could build your own DNS set up for Traffic Director. Based upon the recursive server IP hitting you, send back responses that are closest to the user.

There is an RFC to pass information about the client subnet: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-client-sub...

Which Google DNS uses to tell your name servers more information about where the client is located. This allows you then direct them to the nearest server.
Am I the only one bothered by the fact that their models are topless?

I can't help but feel they are signalling their intent to be an eye into my private life, not unlike the monitoring predicted in 1984.
How do you protect my videos on your site?
Mmm, so we should go off how the science "smells" vs what it says?

Also, for everyone who suggests that belief in the reality of climate change is politically motivated - what is the actual motivation? Sure plenty stand to profit from the sustainable energy industry, but if it was all a hoax in the first place, why would so many be pushing to go the hard way? Why not just throw in with traditional energy industries? Obviously the answer is that only one side in this "debate" is primarily politically motivated, and it's the side that stands to lose a lot of easy money, not the side that stands to make some lesser amount of hard money.
Or we can adapt to the real world where people around us necessarily have an effect on us - and learn to live in that world?

We don't need to work in libraries, we need to just adapt.
Conspiracy theory for the day
Recent attacks on Internet infrastructure, are somebody getting ready to shut down internet news on the day of/day after the election. So, who would want to do that, and why?
How would you explain vector fields to a 5 year old?
The bloody comment I replied to called it that, and it's not controversial. Docker did not suggest running in production for many years and the production stuff is largely an afterthought. Again, I developed this opinion from running it for years.

It was not intended for production usage from the beginning, as you claimed, but I'm already tired of responding to this thread because I'm turning instantly gray for not buying into Docker so why would I bother proving that you're not correct?
It's about expectations, you might want to not live next to a rental. Beyond drunken idiots, unknown people coming and going, dragging luggage through shared halls etc.

Sure, a worst case long term neighbor can be worse, but the average case long term renter is more desirable to most people.

I am willingly living next to resort rentals, I knew it when I moved in. Having it foisted on mw would not be the same. And yes, people can generally do what they want within the confines of their property, it's the shared space or spilling in to neighbor's space that is an issue.
Real package managers should be left to manage system packages, where packages are often supported for a few years.

Package managers for scripting languages and similar should be left to manage user-wide packages, or virtualenv-wide for webapps.
As a former LS employee, I don't know what stings more: the immaterial amount of the transaction, or the 11% after hours plummet.
And yet we need consumer protection, which means governments need to regulate markets; of course finding the highest utility is not as simple as not at all or everything.
Arc is also a Lisp 1.

There's also Mark Tarver's Shen (http://www.shenlanguage.org/). I don't know whether it's a Lisp 1 or 2, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's also a Lisp 1. I have read about Shen but not programmed in it, but I see it's added quite a few features absent from Common Lisp and the newer Lisps, which I think are worth having.

I read your comment and agree. I also agree it's difficult to properly articulate those benefits/interests some people have for handmade things vs machine-made things. Still just things though.

Who knows when robots take over every job, maybe all that will be left is jobs where there is some demand preferences for handmade over machine made. Art, "home-style cooking" etc...

Of course there are multiple ways to tweak pricing to add more discrimination and differential pricing. Interestingly art sales happen to be one of the few examples where a business can reach ~perfect price discrimination, don't see that too often outside of econ textbooks. I'm not going to suggest it to a business owner or anything, looks like he knows what he is doing, just wanted to share my experience.
OVH throws their DDoS mitigation system in for free when you host with them.
Lol people post this everytime someone critiques a hyped up new bullshit tech product. Guess what, the vast majority of them fail. Spectacles is not the iPod. It's going to flop, I stand by it.
I don't down vote, and in fact only recently noticed I could. I don't know who down voted you.

To the other points, "no tests" is the other extreme from "test everything." I find both views are unacceptable in practice.
There is a missing piece of automation here still.

The robot can replicate recorded movements - brush angle, pressure, timing etc.

An photoshop filter can shift pixels around to make a photo look like an oil painting.

What nobody has come up with yet (and would likely be hard to develop, or at least costly) is a way to translate a photograph, or a photoshop filter into the set of movements required to render it in physical oil paint.
No. I would guess that it means it could be in 10s of million $ range. (Maybe that much but given Groupon losses probably an upper bound.)
If I tell her she's being too loud I look like an asshole.

Only to her. Everyone else silently thanks you. Don't let assholes define the narrative by feeling like an asshole because you asked an asshole to quit being such an asshole.
Of course a hotel CEO will celebrate an anti-AirBnb law, and of course the Airbnb CEO will celebrate an anti-hotel law. That doesn't make either one a bad law. The law is supposed to serve the best interest of the public, and yes, someone will benefit and be happy about that.
Were crossbows considered unfair when first introduced on the battlefield?
You called it that. Read what you wrote. Here, I'll paste your entire comment as it is now, since you keep editing it:

> Containers existed before Docker and will exist after Docker, and articles like these are desperate attempts to remind everyone of that in the face of Docker's unilateral destruction of the concept. I know I'm right because of comments like these that presuppose "well, if you're doing containers, use Docker, the alternatives just aren't there." Except they were, before Docker, and after Docker.

> Docker is a developer tool, not a container runtime. The 'containers' it presents require you to commit a daemon on every machine, commit to a weird storage and distribution story when, you know, files of containers served in a flat directory are totally adequate, and so on. Docker made extremely complicated choices for a lot of things and now everybody wishing to advance containers has to deal with presuppositions like these, where Docker exists and the motivation for not using it is unclear to a lot of people, you included.

See the first sentence in the second paragraph? That's you. You wrote that. You did not present it as an opinion, but as a fact.
Well, specifically the issue I mentioned with reconnecting after losing network connections. I've never noticed anything like it before this major iTunes version.
I bet 15% of Google users have used the service to break some sort of law. In fact, I bet it's much higher ("piratebay","where to buy pot","offshoring","visit Cuba")

That wouldn't convince me that Google should turn over thousands of user records without a fight.

It's important that prosecutors have some sort of burden or proof before obtaining personal information, not after. I hope all companies push back on such requests, even when it's not in their financial interest to do so.
Where is the data supporting this statement?

"For today's 14-to-25-year-olds, Snapchat is the new Facebook, in terms of user engagement, market penetration, mindshare"

I'm not saying it's untrue; I would just like to see some reliable data to back this up. Anecdotally; most of the teens I know are using Instagram rather than Snapchat, whereas the people I know using Snapchat are in their mid 20s to mid 30s.
Hasn't the vulnerable code been here for over a decade? Why do people think this was an easy bug to spot? There are dozens of extremely qualified people looking for these things. I think there's a reason there isn't a Nemo Phrack article about this bug: it was hard to spot, and required a flash of insight about the competing lifecycles of objects in two different domains (POSIX and Mach).
Dude (or dudette). I have no idea. I was merely responding to the assertion made up yonder. I was pointing out that while possibly not an incorrect assertion it is one that is contradicted by the estimated projections of the very first line from the report under discussion.
(I work for CF)

Indeed, if you want the HTTP/HTTPS traffic to go through Cloudflare, the DNS must go through Cloudflare. There are generally two ways to set it up:

a) You move your DNS auth to Cloudflare and allow it to manage it.

b) You keep managing your domain yourself, and CNAME to Cloudflare. See: https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200168706-H...

What you should do depends on your setup and threat model. Do you fear DNS auth going down? Do you think your DNS will be a target? Do you use Cloudflare to hide your HTTP origin IP addresses?

For example, if you fear DNS auth going down, but you must use Cloudflare for HTTPS (say: for caching and SSL certs), then changing DNS off CF makes little sense. You already assume stability by expecting it to work HTTP layer.

If you think you can be a target of DNS attack, I'd say having multiple auth is unlikely to give you more mileage.

If you can afford disabling CF on HTTP layer, exposing your HTTP origin IP and want to have two different DNS auth providers, fine, you can do CNAME. But then you have three vendors to worry about, and problems with each can lead to trouble.
First why and then trust
And so? There is more than one way to spread a botnet.

One particular method is DNS rebinding. They attack your webbrowser, then your browser passes the attack to the device inside the network.

Another means is 'the weakest link'. An insecure and compromised device (even if it just a user account on that device) scans your local network behind the firewall , passes information to a command and control server, which downloads and passes an exploits to the devices it discovers on your network.
>They knew individuals were renting whole apartments 100% of the time, and did nothing.

While this certainly goes against the spirit of Airbnb and probably against their terms and conditions, if there is demand for this kind of short rentals, why wouldn't they be allowed?

Are you perhaps thinking of JQuery UI? The core JQuery lib is still used. And for basic front end dev it really does offer most of the utility you'll look for in other libs.

1. Get and manipulate dom elements.
2. Register simple event handlers
3. Ajax calls that are simple (frankly all other ajax-ish APIs I've ever seen pretty much copy the design and approach of the JQuery one).

Also a pretty big ecosystem of simple highly focused add-ons. You (still) can get a long way with just JQuery
One thing to note, I have a few friends who work at Tesla service centers. They cut A LOT of corners when it comes to service to show profits this quarter. For example, for the location that one of my friends works at (which happens to be one of the busiest locations in Southern California), they sold almost every single loaner vehicle as a used car.
They don't (as evidenced by the non-Alibaba part being sold for 4.8b).
I don't think that dichotomy exists. I definitely feel that the entire web should not look like Android.
This doesn't explain how you prevent against paying or pressuring people for their vote. If someone can potentially watch you as you vote, this is not an anonymous voting scheme anymore.

I really don't like the image of AirBnb. They seem to think they can do whatever they like and get away with, like they should get special treatment because they are billionaires. I'm honestly happy to see them get crushed by the US government. It's good to see them put in their place. Just like how the US government did with MSFT back in the late 90s
