That looks pretty cool.

My favourite home/office made finger toys are when you take 2 of the little plastic protectors off of the ports of screencards (and/or cables). They're a great size to stick your fingers a bit into and they usually fit inside each other nicely (it's ok if they're loose, but really great if they stick nicely). They're pretty durable too, unless if you play too hard they can last a very long time.

Microsoft showed off “Touch bar”-like idea in 2010
Why would this be an April fool's? Birds are amazing! This one has a variable-geometry wing adapted for an enormous degree of flying efficiency, and can spend almost its entire life aloft, landing only to lay eggs and rear young. They're fast as anything, too - the fastest known bird in level flight is a swift - and fly at altitudes well over a mile, where the air is too thin and the ascent too time-consuming for a lot of birds ever to go.

In a lot of ways, the swift is the Concorde of birds - small, sleek, astonishingly fast, and accustomed to operating in regimes beyond anything accessible to most of its kin. Fortunately for the swift, though, it need not rely on the mercurial good graces of Airbus to stay aloft.

It's not a bad attitude though.

Experts with authority granted to them in the form of titles have failed us, and keep failing us in so many areas. Ranging from nutrition to psychology, we really shouldn't put their work on a pedestal. Techies are a smart bunch on average and can stomach a lot more complexity than the average joe. It makes sense for them to try to pick up stuff outside of their line of work.

Take Elon Musk as the most successful example. Deferring to experts is a poor substitute for thinking for yourself.

It's actually not bashrc that is the direct culprit but a few issues with how Cygwin emulates posix.

Best solution is to edit /etc/bash_completion.d and remove anything you don't need this can shave off 2-3 seconds of the load time.

Since windows now should have a native fork() call Cygwin might be updated on its own which will make it about as fast as a native nix system, that said Cygwin will need to make a dedicated version for windows 10 for this to work.

They could, but why? There's no money it in.

Open sourcing .NET means they get contributions and users who would never touch a closed source core. They also make money from things around .NET and from cross-selling products that tightly integrate with .NET.

They don't currently make any money from AoE2. Being as old as it is, it's not for sale new so when it does change hands, it's used or illegitimate. Open sourcing the engine helps the people who already handed over money but it's not going to draw in any more legitimate sales for the assets (which are usually non-free in something like this).

And there are licensing issues. If they licensed used some audio middleware or video playback stuff (very common in games) they almost certainly don't have a license to redistribute that in source form. That means either paying more or changing it out. Either way that's money they have to spend on this thing that isn't making them any money.

Not to mention there are already things like openage and 0ad which replicate or replace the engine with a ground-up free implementation.

Rather than do any of that that, Microsoft commissioned a new engine (and assets) to release AoE2HD. They're getting a £15 for everybody who wants to play their old game on new operating systems. That's just the way you make money from old games these days.
I wonder why; it seems weird to insist your users either use TypeScript or mentally translate it to es6. I would think allowing community members to write es6 docs would be a good way to get more involvement. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yes, sorry - to be clear, I wasn't questioning the existance of the actual reflex. More the protective effect - however I understand that my post probably wasn't worded very well.
That's not what I'm saying though. Take these people in 10 years. 10 years of having to come late and leave early because child care. 10 years of sometimes having to stay home with a sick child, attenda PTA stuff, not sleeping because baby screaming or something.

10 years of being poorer because having a child is more expensive[1], and having MUCH less "free time". Though I still classify it as leisure time.

Depending on the country, this includes being COMPLETELY away from work for a year of parental leave.

Do you think these people will be as good as their parallel-universe counterparts that did not go through this?

You only have 100% of your time.
Depends on the species; the white-throated needletail has been clocked doing about 170km/h, which is the fastest yet seen of any bird in level flight. (Peregrines, commonly awarded the "fastest bird" laurel, of course outdo this by far - but only in a power dive, where they get 9.8m/s² for free.)
Yep, nice catch. Edited.

Re-arranging is definitely one 'solution' and the only real approach when you're talking music played live on acoustic instruments. It's one of the elements of good orchestral music I find most fascinating - that many sources of noise, each playing their part and either perfectly blending or completely juxtaposing one another.

I'd argue that using all the various forms of DSP at your disposal when working with sound in the recorded / amplified sense (and especially electronic music) is an equally valid aesthetic choice. Different limitations, different capabilities and difference aesthetic possibilities for different mediums.
Facebook was once a personal project. I would definitely like to hire that person.
I don't use soylent, but I eat something similar (whey + powdered oats + flavoring + milk).

I don't know how to cook well, preparing food and cleaning afterwards is a pure waste of time. Buying this stuff in bulk (for like 2-3 months in one order) lets me mix up a batch that lasts me whole week in one day, lets me accurately track my macros and helps me with having eating discipline (I tend to get overweight if I just eat when I feel like it).

It's not that I'm too busy to eat real food - it's that this lets me eat better (I'm quite lean on this diet, feel excellent) and I spend 15 minutes a day on food in total including prep/cleaning and consumption.

So I can understand how some people would like Soylent for similar properties.

At least he's been eating his own product almost exclusively when at home according to that blog post. This gave me a positive impression at the start of the blog post and I was agreeing with what he said initially, but then it went downhill.

I would not want to get rid of my kitchen and I would absolutely never replace my food with Soylent, especially now that I've heard of all the people getting sick from it. Also, Gawker said [1] that nutritionists say that Soylent is not a sufficient replacement for a real diet.

I do not agree that shopping for groceries is a nightmare. It might be in the big grocery stores in the US but in my country and city most grocery stores are pretty small, so I just drop by there a couple of times a week, pick up some food, pay for it and then I'm on my way home which is practically next door to the closest store (110 meters apart to be exact).

At that point I did not bother to read the rest of the blog post.

Diamonds Are the Future of 3D Data Storage
From some of the management training I've sat through money is a poor motivator but a really powerful demotivator. If I give you a pay rise you very quickly come to see yourself as "worth" that amount of money and so any boost is short lived. If you feel that you are underpaid that leads to a long running and very powerful effect as described above.

There are plenty of other things that are much more powerful motivators than money, and a good company to work for is probably not the one paying you the most. Otherwise everyone would be in finance working 100 hour weeks and loving it. The issue isn't that someone was paid $X is that they felt they were worth $Y and the other incentives and motivators weren't sufficient to overcome that. If they were paid less than they could command elsewhere but doing work that mattered to them and challenged them, felt valued by the company, were part of a good team, had flexibility in work life balance, were given opportunities to develop and learn, had prospects for advancement and the myriad other things that different people value (and sometimes value very differently) then the situation may have been very different.

Ok, should I text you or something when that happens? You're taking a very black-and-white approach to what I said. I never stated that I wouldn't have the very natural and human urge to continue life or the feeling of missing out on what could have happened, should I find myself at death's door any time soon. What I said is that I try not to attach myself to those feelings. I see absolutely no value in letting a 100% factual eventuality concern my living, breathing moments in any way whatsoever. That doesn't mean I don't eat healthy or avoid obvious paths to an "early" death. It just means I do not think about it (fear, worry, regret, whatever), as this thinking wouldn't be fruitful for me. Is that not understandable, even if you don't agree with this way?
>I strongly don't believe that a human is going to be the ultimate lifeform.

Once again, you sound atrocious at biology. Using terms like "ultimate lifeform" isn't even real biology, it's anime and video game "biology(tm)". Real-world evolution has no teleology built into it: there's no "ultimateness" to reach towards.

>Evolution thus far though has very clearly favored death as the primary means of design.

Evolution doesn't really favor anything, as such. Death happens because the Second Law of Thermodynamics makes even the most robust systems (and life is really robust, actually) break down eventually.

>I guess the other alternative is that we hit an entirely egalitarian society

So to be clear, you think an "egalitarian society" (your words) is even less likely than human immortality, despite the fact that relatively egalitarian human societies have been observed in, say, Sweden, while immortality has not.

Have you considered that you may be Ebeneezer Scrooge?

>> It seems that the US culture derides analytical thinking in general, with many popular public figures flaunting their "inability to do math" as some sort of great achievement and sending out a loud and clear messages, like, "don't analyze just enjoy your life and avoid math as math means analysis"

I am generally not a fan of speaking in terms of "privilege" and "identity", but this is precisely an example of "developed Western country privilege". The attitude goes, "See, I can still be successful/well-off without having to hunch down and study math like those third-world FOB immigrants do." It comes down to status signalling: not having to do math becomes a status signal. It also appears it is mostly this attitude and not the widely blamed "bro culture" that is the major reason why women (in the West, because this didn't happen elsewhere) abandoned CS sometime in the late 80s/90s.
> Take Elon Musk as the most successful example. Deferring to experts is a poor substitute for thinking for yourself.

I'm not sure what you mean. Elon Musk is an extremely purpose-driven, incredibly intelligent person in addition to being successful. From wikipedia:

'He is the founder, CEO, and CTO of SpaceX; co-founder, CEO, and product architect of Tesla Motors; co-founder and chairman of SolarCity; co-chairman of OpenAI; co-founder of Zip2; and founder of X.com which merged with PayPal of Confinity. As of June 2016, he has an estimated net worth of US$11.5 billion, making him the 83rd wealthiest person in the world. Musk has stated that the goals of SolarCity, Tesla Motors, and SpaceX revolve around his vision to change the world and humanity. His goals include reducing global warming through sustainable energy production and consumption, and reducing the "risk of human extinction" by "making life multiplanetary" by setting up a human colony on Mars. In addition to his primary business pursuits, he has also envisioned a high-speed transportation system known as the Hyperloop, and has proposed a VTOL supersonic jet aircraft with electric fan propulsion, known as the Musk electric jet.'

These are not things that just a "successful" person does. He breaks the mold from tech: the mind of Nikola Tesla but with much more business sense.
Just because the headline is sensational doesn't mean there's nothing of merit in the body of the work.
Agreed

he's beautifully designing a load of nonsense

After switching to TypeScript, I am not sure whether I will ever go back to JavaScript (after so many years of using JS). I don't use or like Angular2 - but I use React with TypeScript.

Even if we could use ES6 JavaScript in the browser, transpilation isn't going away completely because we need HTML, uglification, vendor-libs, etc to be brought in together before deploying to production.

WARNING: If you are starting off with React+Typescript, expect to bang your head for may be, a couple of days, to get that stuff working. However, once it does work, it saves much more time and effort
Unit conversion: 0.04oz is approximately 1.14g, which sounds pretty impressive. But it can't be much heavier because a common swift typically only weighs around 35-56g (that's 1¼–2oz) according to http://www.commonswift.org/swift_english.html

According to the Wikipedia article linked by mongol, these devices can be as light as 0.3g. It's a battery, a phototube, a clock, and a recording chip. Longitude can be reconstructed from the time of most/least light, whereas the length of day and night allow reconstruction of latitude. Battery life is between 6 months and 5 years.
Well, you could also steal workers from other civs, which you then didn't have to pay upkeep for. That should probably be counted as slavery.

As a counterpoint, perhaps when the next generation's crop of CEOs begins this anti-aging therapy, it will occur to them that it's prudent to plan ahead a bit further than the next quarterly profit report.

Right now, your average upper level executive knows they've got maybe 40-50 good years ahead of them before it's game over. In that light, the pervasive mindset of "make as much money as you can as fast as you can, all else be damned" makes some sense, as the cash required to keep them and their loved ones comfortable for life can be realistically obtained in a short time. When you're looking 400+ years in the future, though, that picture changes dramatically. Considering the bigger long-term perspective becomes much more personally, viscerally important.

When I read about projected consequences of climate change, most of the worst ones will be after I'm dead, and it quickly becomes abstract to me. I care, but not nearly as much as I would if I had a reasonable certainty of being stuck here in the middle of all that.
Hey guys!

This is my first post on my first project using machine learning. I applied text classification to my research in medical school. It was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy the read
There is no such thing as high or low tech. Technology is applied science, knowledge, methods and strategies to accomplish a goal. That's all.

Focus on the goal and outcome, not the process to get there. And definitely don't "judge" it based on whether it is "high tech" or not.
Interesting idea, but then you are essentially forcing everyone to go through their upstream provider or Google's DNS servers, since when DDOS attacks occur, smaller networks won't be in your 8000 resolver whitelist.

Part of me thinks this is just the author building another wall, since now the DDOS will just attack ISP DNS servers instead, and worse yet quite a few of those compromised IoT devices are on those same ISPs networks, providing even better connectivity & potential throughput compared to congested peering.

Perhaps we should be taking a different path, instead of letting Qualcomm, Broadcom and ilk continue to build massive out of tree branches of the Linux kernel and never mainline their changes, thus preventing effective long term support for said hardware, we should seek to force them to properly mainline their code so when the vendors using their chips drop support, all these vulnerable IoT devices aren't permanently sitting there vulnerable.

Otherwise, the future is bleak for your smart toaster. Its likely gonna join a botnet sooner or later, just a matter of time ultimately.
