> Not only is the analogy correct, the problem has the same solution: require evidence of user intent.

You make a very good point, but I'm not totally sure that it is the complete answer. I agree that it is clearly right for my browser to display pop-ups, and play videos, when I indicate my intent that it do so. My question was not whether that should happen, but whether any users want pop-ups as the method of interaction (or information display). Although I definitely want, in an operational sense, PeopleSoft to show me a pop-up when I click on the relevant button, because that's the only way to get to certain information, what I really want, in an aspirational sense, is for it to display the information in some other way, without a pop-up at all.
> which map's text is easier to read?

For the first example, they're both difficult for me to read. Even the "good" one on the left doesn't have enough contrast for me. Also, because I'm old, the type is too small, and being as small as it is the strokes seem to "bloom" (a term of art that I just made up): there's too much stroke and not enough space for me to quickly figure out what letter is being used.

A mobile screen doesn't have enough space for "art" in something as dense as a map. Make it look good, yes please, but if I can't read it I won't.

I think what I'd like on a mobile device is a control that picks out lines and not lines, and maximizes the difference, and does something a little more complicated to make text more legible. "Reader View" in Firefox is one of my favorite features, but it only changes text, not images. Maybe a combination of SVG images and really fast processors would make this possible; I doubt CV is going to do this very well any time soon.

"Oh, but he's old and we can dismiss him." Yes to the first, and from my own observations yes to the second. And I suppose by the time these conditions afflict today's designers, instead of cradling your devices with your heads down you'll be hiding behind VR glasses and size won't matter.
That's absolutely fair, I should know better than to generalize like that. We live in rural Missouri, which is probably why the social pressure is what it is.

Sorry about Trump, BTW.

Restrictions were lifted in iOS10 less than four months ago: https://webkit.org/blog/6784/new-video-policies-for-ios/
(Article date: Oct 29th 2016). This is so last week. Zcash has already crashed. Peaked around $5000, today $127. Not only that, the anonymity feature didn't work. You can't send to "z addresses" only. This is claimed by the developers to be a bug they will fix. Since that was the main feature of this altcoin, and they shipped with it broken, they're either incompetent or disabled it to avoid regulatory problems.

Roger Ver, a convicted felon who claimed Mt. Gox was sound[1], is involved with ZCash. What could possibly go wrong?

ZCash is from Tel Aviv, headquarters of "binary option" scams. The entire Tel Aviv based binary options business has been exposed as a scam. [2] (Short version: a binary option is a bet against the house, not other investors, and the house cheats. Online binary option companies claimed to be in lots of places, including Trump Tower, but they're almost always really in Tel Aviv.) People in the "binary option" industry are now looking for new scams. "Forex" is one. There's a lot of interest in "blockchains" there.[3] This is a worry.

I'd imagine this is very individual and depends on your life in total.

That paper deals with non-stochastic deep neural networks, and its mathematical analysis deals with discriminative classification. It doesn't deal with generative models, which model the joint probability distribution of classes and data instances rather than just taking a maximum-a-posteriori estimate from the posterior.
This seems to be devoid of any actual information besides what platforms it works on, and at least on my phone, I can't find any links to more information. What features does this have that make it better than what I already use? Is it open source, and if so, where can I look at the source code? Do I have to pay for this app or is it free (as in free beer)?
Yeah well, societal pressures only go so far in influencing a relationship. If the other party can't respect your values, an argument over a diamond is the least of your worries.
Sounds like a good pickup line: "What do you think about diamond ring?"

Better discover the answer after 3 minutes rather than 3 years.
Thanks for writing this. My problem is only that you consider mosanite inexpensive, which is relative to Diamonds true, but from a ring search i could only find nice looking ones for >1000€ which is still expensive/hardly affordable to me.
Does that make Marie Antoinette a feminist icon too?

This article neglects to mention Monero or Dash, the preexisting altcoins designed to be have anonymous transactions, or any existing shuffling tools like dark wallet.

That's probably the endgame that 3D printing is pointing toward - being able to create anything you need on your own with a minimum of input needed (raw materials) so we're all self sufficient. The problem is the transition phase, where these automated production facilities are only benefitting the current owners of the factories, but have not yet become cheap or miniaturized enough to really benefit everyone (will we see a Personal Factory revolution like that of Personal Computers?). Capitalism works because the owners of the factories still need workers to run the machinery and buy the produced goods. Replace them with robots and you lose the market to sell the goods to too and the whole thing breaks down - the next 50 years are going to be a very interesting time to be alive.
I've been studying 5y at Epitech, in France. The same kind of education you mentioned (holberton/42).
Actually, it's not "without" teacher. They don't teach like you would expect in a traditional univ: they only show you the road.

>More USA cities should be like NYC

Have you considered that the suburbs exist in their current form because some people actually want it that way? Not everyone wants to live in a city like NYC, evidenced by the fact that many people avoid high density like the plague.
The portfolio is usually not worth much. Each project has ~4 people working on it, so it's hard to tell how much credit / blame you should get for it. And since you were at a bootcamp motivated to see you finish, how much hand holding did you get from them? Another problem is that I've seen the same, probably 10 projects implemented dozens of times each at this point. They are all almost exactly the same, with very little difference in implementations. When I try to dive in and ask about implementation questions or how they would change it to support a particular feature or why they think this glaringly obvious bug exists, most of the graduates can't answer my questions, often because "oh, I didn't work on that part".

Don't get me wrong, I've met some brilliant and capable bootcampers, who I suspect would've done just as well or better outside of a bootcamp, but my point is that having a bootcamp portfolio isn't much of a signal.

>For me, at least, I feel much more in control of what's actually going on when I'm working on the command line; once you hit the GUI level, there's another layer of abstraction that you have to understand and deal with that in a lot of cases isn't very helpful.

>Case in point, right now I'm an undergrad TA'ing a C++ class. One thing that has been very useful when helping students out is compiling their code under Clang and GCC, which for me, is as simple as just changing `CXX` when I cmake their stuff. But hell if I have any idea how to change that easily in their IDE. It's also easier for me to redirect compiler output somewhere so I can look at it, and for maybe everything except step-by-step debugging, I have pretty much no need for the IDE.

Probably because the GUI tools you're using are CLI first, with GUI frontends being a second thought? On Visual Studio (which is GUI first), changing a compiler is as simple as going to project properties and clicking the toolchain dropdown menu.

> "I'm from India and I find it hard to communicate with western people these ideas directly."

I'm from a Western country, and understand what you're saying, though I admit I did pick up on the general idea from Eastern philosophy.

If you were interested in sharing the ideas with Western people, perhaps you could do so in the form of thought experiment? For example (and this is only an example, I'm confident this won't be the best example for everyone), you could point out how much of human life exists at the subconscious level. Nobody knows how the mind works, yet the mind works regardless. Nobody consciously tells their bodies how to process food, or repair itself after it's damaged, yet it happens anyway. Considering the myriad of processes that the subconscious undertakes, wouldn't it be fair to say a large part of what makes us 'us' exists at the subconscious level?

That's not to say the 'narrative' side of our mind is not part of us too, but if that's all we know perhaps we're missing the bigger picture.
Which from what I've heard is sadly more or less dead (requests that require human attention are not processed, long downtimes)

This is going to be difficult to accept probably, but fwiw here's the gist of what modern psychiatry has to say: the brain is not divided into conscious thought and unconscious thought; rather, all the brain's work takes place unconsciously, on all topics, all the time. What we then call consciousness is a product of the fully occupied and engaged unconscious mind.

So in terms of the headline, your unconscious is not a better developer than you are; your unconscious is your only developer.

Furthermore, [while emotion and logic both exist] there are not logical thoughts and emotional thoughts, emotion is engaged in thought all the time. You will actually form different "logical" conclusions on the basis of your mood, emotional state, etc. (As an example in grossly stereotypical terms, this is what you might imagine happening "so clearly" in a PMSing woman; the fallacy is that men are not doing the same thing all the time, they are.) So, to the blog poster's point, his unconscious "better developer" is actually the emotional preoccupations of his consciousness getting in the way of his being able to get to realize what his uncounscious developer is capable of. [Didn't mean to overstate that: in the case where he notices his unconscious mind coming up with good work, sometimes it just takes more time to create/uncover a good solution; just saying it's the same portions of the brain continuing to chew on the problem, conscious or not.]

For people interested, the brain science book "Thinking Fast and Slow" is very good, it will convince you that your brain does not work the way you think it does. It doesn't necessarily say all what I said above, some of that comes from psychiatry. Freud's enduring contribution to the field was his realization how much unconscious thought was taking place. BTW the term "unconscious" is preferred because historically in the field, "subconscious" is a term associated with Jung's "collective unconscious".
I'm curious how difficult moissanite is to manufacture compared to diamonds, as I was under the impression diamonds require high pressure and temperature to make.
This is your limbic system calling. The hypothalamus and amygdala together produce judgements based on experience. The dopaminergic signal they send is what we call a gut feeling. They excel at managing/judging large amounts of information, especially in the absence of tools.

You might also call them the seat of learning. Dopamine is very sensitive to errors in prediction, which is how learning is mediated. What they are not is the seat of reason.

This is also (partly) why we are bad at distinguishing things we desire from positive judgements: they use the same signalling. That is when your neocortex is useful. Being able to override the limbic system is one of the defining characteristics of conscious behaviour. Feeling driven to do so is another dopamine-mediated reward structure: the satisfaction of solving a puzzle.

p.s. my limbic system agrees with yours re.Twitter.

> The success criteria for self driving cars is that they can drive at least as well, in the common case, as the set of human drivers who are defined to be "good" drivers. And self driving is not invalidated by a computer's mishandling of an event that a good driver would also mishandle.

This comes with one important caveat: these are the engineering criteria. The criteria of public perception, unfortunately, may not allow for a computer driver that makes the same mistakes that a human "would have", because people tend to mis-estimate what they or another human "would have" done.
Probably superior to this piece is historian Robert Paxton's article "The Five Stages of Fascism" (http://theleder.com/docs/Misc/Paxton_Five%20Stages%20of%20Fa...).

It was later extended into a book length treatment (https://libcom.org/files/Robert%20O.%20Paxton-The%20Anatomy%...) which is very worthwhile, and readable, if you are interested in what he calls (paraphrasing) the most significant political development of the 20th century.
Have you read any Iain M. Banks? While his books are often bleak ("Use of Weapons" and "Consider Phlebas" and "Against a Dark Background" in particular), and he has a fondness for dark humour and irony (both dramatic and linguistic), they never wander into nihilist territory, and are firmly on the side of humanism and progressiveness in general. He is (or was) also usually a great craftsman.
Disclosure: I am an engineer working on Zcash.

Anonymity is not a binary. Monero, even with the addition of RingCT, is vulnerable to transaction graph analysis (intersection attacks) that can de-anonymize users. Zcash takes a completely different approach that achieves ledger indistinguishability -- shielded transactions in the blockchain have no apparent relationship with each other, which is an essential privacy benefit.

Much of what I read in that thread is wrong or misleading: Monero does not have a trusted setup, but it's important to note that a failure in Zcash's setup does not disrupt the privacy of the system. The "poison-pill" vulnerability is not a concern in our system. The claims about the anonymity set are very misleading. It is possible to do far more than multi-sig in our system, we just haven't implemented it yet. The point about mining is specific to the paper and is irrelevant.

There are downsides to the system, such as our performance problems, but they are solveable given time. Zcash is obviously not the only player, but it's also going to continue to grow and adapt and improve, just like other cryptocurrencies will.

Well, several things that Trump has said in public during his presidential campaign can arguably be called "hate speech".

The UK legal definition is

"""

A person who uses threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, or displays any written material which is threatening, abusive or insulting, is guilty of an offence if

a) he intends thereby to stir up racial hatred, or

(b) having regard to all the circumstances, racial hatred is likely to be stirred up thereby.

"""

Would you seriously suggest that when Trump says

"""

When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists.

"""

that this is does not fit the above definition of hate speech?
