I agree. Also, some people groping with this idea will use the word "unconscious" when referring to the subconscious but the distinction is important. The subconscious is always doing something, processing info, etc., even when we sleep, i.e. it is an active process. We aren't necessarily conscious of it hence the prefix "sub" or below consciousness. Unconscious implies inactivity, inertness like a boxer knocked out in the ring.

>It is not generally helpful to think of this as a different person,

I think this is down right harmful and one of the psychological manifestations of the mind/body dichotomy. Disowning your subconscious is a path to neurotic behavior and unhappiness. It is "you" just automatized from your past and one of the most important tasks of the conscious mind is to monitor and correct automatized past errors through introspection.

"In Europe, where diamond prices had collapsed during the Depression, there seemed little possibility of restoring public confidence in diamonds. In Germany, Austria, Italy, and Spain, the notion of giving a diamond ring to commemorate an engagement had never taken hold. In England and France, diamonds were still presumed to be jewels for aristocrats rather than the masses. Furthermore, Europe was on the verge of war, and there seemed little possibility of expanding diamond sales. This left the United States as the only real market for De Beers's diamonds. In fact, in 1938 some three quarters of all the cartel's diamonds were sold for engagement rings in the United States. Most of these stones, however, were smaller and of poorer quality than those bought in Europe, and had an average price of $80 apiece. Oppenheimer and the bankers believed that an advertising campaign could persuade Americans to buy more expensive diamonds."

From a fellow moissanite fangirl, thank you for writing this up! I always enjoy telling people my ring isn't a diamond, but the essay is more compelling to share with folks that can't see moissanite in person.

I have a 1ct moissanite and 2 3mm white sapphires in my ring, and the bonus was that custom designing my own ring was still _drastically_ cheaper than getting a diamond: http://i.imgur.com/H3jDulz.jpg

It's only a catch-22 if you can't let her know you are thinking about marriage before you propose. Just saying that out loud it sounds like such a ridiculous idea: I might want to marry her, but I can't let her know that I'm thinking about it.

You say it's not a sign of a lack of maturity, but it sounds exactly like a lack of maturity to me (an inability to communicate honestly with someone who you want to spend the rest of your life with about really basic stuff).

I used this a lot while consulting (as System Architect). I usually instantly knew if something was a good or bad idea of going about things (or a technology to use), but would then often have to go off and do some intense research to provide the evidence of my totally gut-based opinion. Often I found such evidence sooner rather than later, but sometimes I did not. Since it still felt right, I'd present whatever I did find in order to try and persuade clients to go in that direction, and often it was sufficient to persuade them - especially ones I'd been working with for a while and gained some trust.

I can't think of a time where this instinct has been wrong (except when it instantly thought that Twitter was a terrible idea - and I'm still awaiting the final verdict on that one), although the real reasons why it was the right choice for a situation did not always become apparent until much later. I learnt to listen to this instinct, but wish I could gain better insight into its decision making process! :)

There's a number of applications for permissioned blockchains, perhaps even running in a "public" context. But the main application so far is inter-organizational transactional systems. Smart contracts in this context are as useful as in the public case (aka Ethereum), for defining and socializing business logic and processes. Fixed consensus membership doesn't fundamentally alter this.
Yeah Wellington has always taken it seriously, I remember the building where I worked in 2002 had a sticker on it by the council saying the building wasn't earthquake safe. The buildings here are much more earthquake safe than Christchurch but also the damage potential is much higher.
We're using eventuate[0], which is an event-sourcing framework with deep support for cooperation via shared logs. It's based on the actor framework akka; akka itself has akka-persistence[1], which is similar but different[2]. All of these techs are usable right now.

Though it doesn't feature either implementation (he does something similar on top of Samza), I like this article[3] on the topic: turning the database inside out really is what we're doing.

6 and 14 are the only ones missing on the list, but some could easily argue that 6 is already here in a minor way and 14 was attempted through voter purges in potential swing states and the repeated attempts at suppressing votes and/or upholding needlessly cumbersome voter registration rules by both parties (one more aggressively than the other).
Yes please. In fact, let it be a preference if I even wish to buffer that stuff, rather than just not autoplay it.

This depends on the method of fabrication - there are several. From my recollection of a Wired article from a decade ago, there was a then-new technique that produced diamonds that were indistinguishable from natural diamonds but for being maybe a little too perfect.

The problem with earthquakes is that damage accumulates. So while a building might stay intact or with minor damages during the main one, the aftershocks could wreck havoc. And with an 7.8 aftershocks could last for months and be quite severe.

Nevertheless I hope everyone is OK and wish you the best. I've experienced quite a few earthquakes in my life, although nothing over 7, and the shock stays for long. It's one of those times in your life when you feel completely helpless.
I need to reread that book. I remember being profoundly moved by it but I can't quite put it to words well. He captured the heart of the impoverished and especially the criminal.
This attitude ignores the fact that risk comes in multiple forms. While lowercasing the passwords increases the guess-ability of the password when attempting to log in to this site it actually reduces the value of the password in a breach of this sort, since it may not be usable verbatim on other sites even if the user typed it the same way. As this sort of breach is now quite common I think many "best practices" for password security that date back to the design of unix logins are arguably no longer best. For example if we just used CRC24 to hash passwords it would be nearly impossible to recover them from the hashes, but at a practical level would be comparably secure on the front end: it would take 1000s of guesses to find a working collision, which is easily preventable at the front gate by locking the account after a small number of bad guesses; but it would be far more secure on the backend, since any CRC24 code could derive from millions of possibilities.
Due to involvement in communities seeking alternatives to the illness model of depression, I've come to the conclusion that that model is unhelpful to about as many people as it is helpful.

For myself (lifelong struggles with melancholy and several Major Depression diagnoses) this has been the rough effectiveness of approaches:

Medication: nil

Therapy: very slight, highly dependent on circumstances

Changing circumstances: Extremely effective when things go my way, but ultimately not effective because life is chaotic, and gatekeepers always have either more or much more control over your circumstances than you do, unless you're a gatekeeper. Or, you can be winning at life in every way, but you and your loved ones are still eligible for sudden misfortune.

Mindfulness: Very effective. Takes practice, but totally worth it, and ultimately becomes something you can control more than most other things.
Interesting. IIRC I came across a series of libs from that family recently - for different languages, including Python. Need to check it out. Update: Googled, it's right here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MiniKanren

From that page:

"There are implementations of miniKanren in Haskell, Racket, Ruby, Clojure, and Python. The canonical implementation is an embedded language in Scheme. The Clojure core.logic library was inspired by miniKanren."

The name kanren comes from a Japanese word for "relation".

Actually, yes. And, yes, it was in Germany. And it was in fact for using Facebook tracking pixels and "like" buttons by large newspapers.

Which is why every newspaper then switched to "2-click Like", where the Facebook button is first shown in grey, you click it, it loads the actual button, and you can like.

I think you may be reading too much into it. What mechanisms are behind ad placement? I haven't done any online marketing so I'm not familiar with how advertising on YouTube works. So here's some speculation, none of which is meant to imply that I'm trying to assume what you're thinking. There's too little in your comment for me to do that :)

If there's no ad targeting, it'd just be coincidence, right? If there's some sort of ad targeting based on some demographic data, what does that say? It may just mean that you happen to match some criteria, like you happen to live in a certain location. How about if the advertiser is targeting certain videos or types of videos? Should that be allowed? Disallowed? Allowed only in some circumstances? Maybe just not this advertiser under any circumstances? How would you set up Google's advertising?

I guess I'm not sure what "someone thinks it is okay to do this now" implies. Maybe I'm misinterpreting you?

This is an awesome project. I highly recommend reading through his series on Medium (eg https://medium.com/@CantabileApp/implementing-window-messagi...)

That being said, I think he is overestimating the market that would pay for this. This seems like it could attract at least a small community as an open source project, however. Unfortunately effort in development is not always rewarded with monetary gain.

Perhaps he should license it as GPL3 and offer commercial licenses? He may find some customers in software houses that are still selling Win16 software.
The one biggish one I went through was in Seattle, where I was in a startup. We had cheap IKEA desks, which barely held the computers.

Chaos Monkey is just a tool to accelerate/simulate the disorder inherent to the cloud. The original point was that the cloud is unstable and hostile, so software designed for it benefits from that disorder. Granted, it's not doing so all on its own, but exhibits the effect nonetheless, and I think Taleb's book is full of similarly impure examples.

There's a world of difference between stress testing before something is sold or released and welcoming ongoing hostility throughout its lifecycle, and this difference is absolutely in line with the concept of antifragility.
Tsunami waves have an extremely long period. A good surfing wave forms when a swell 2-5 m amplitude with period 13-24s when it starts to feel the bottom of the ocean.

The amplitude of the tsunami wave in the open ocean is much smaller than wind-generated swells but they can have periods of 60-70 minutes so they are more of a surge that just keeps coming when they hit land, and as you say when they start to feel the bottom they stand up and the large volume of water in the wave makes it stand up larger and more powerful than you would expect for a smaller amplitude swell.

Every wave has a peak and a trough and the trough of the tsunami wave is what causes the water levels to recede so drastically before the wave hits.

Geographic features like valleys that get narrower and narrower will cause the same volume of water hitting the coast to make a much more drastic change in water level
Because at some level, policing is about delivering a product (a policeman) to a consumer (a victim / criminal in a bad situation), so standard marketing tactics (market segmentation, revenue management, etc.) apply. Many other businesses have access to these databases and use them to beneficial effect; there's no reason police shouldn't jump onto the big data bandwagon too to increase customer satisfaction.

Yeah, I always try to book by 6-7PM. Booking at 11PM generally winds up with a lot of failure.

The problem when I'm booking hotels is that:

1) I'm driving a long distance west of the Mississippi, and the stop points are very discrete and far between--so everybody wants to stop at the same point. For example, Austin to San Diego--El Paso is a bit short for the first day, so you go to Las Cruces which is a lot smaller and more likely to have fully booked up.

2) I'm doing a tourist thing which puts me in with a lot of other people.
Brazil Is Ditching Open Source for Microsoft
This is not quite what happened.

Datastax employees were the controlling influence on the PMC, and the PMC failed to police copyright issues (including with Datastax marketing materials), mostly because they did not know this was their duty (and partially, in at least the case of some individuals, because they did not have any desire to participate in this duty on a volunteer basis).

They were also seen to have poorly nurtured other involvement from the wider community.

To some greater or lesser extent these charges were valid, and the community (not just the board, at least on the non-trademark issues) felt improvements would be welcome. But certain members of the board behaved in what appeared to be a very hostile and childish manner, by threatening Datastax with removal of every employee from the project. (I've been in heated arguments with these individuals for their behaviour, and I'll note they disavow any intended hostility, though do not disavow their actions)

The ASF did not remove Datastax from anything, although they were I think involved in Jonathan Ellis (Datastax CTO) being replaced as chair.

Datastax recently posted that they were planning to put much of their new feature development into their commercial version. They claim this all had nothing to do with stepping back from the project, but in all likelihood this is a "rising above it" PR position. That said, it probably is a good business decision, and may have happened sooner or later anyway.
