One of the reasons I love having a car is storage. I can go chain-shopping and store items I bought in the car. Getting a random self-driving car would make me carry all the stuff I bought with me. Kinda sucks.

Same with commuting or going to mass events. I keep some drinking water (fuck stadium/concerts pricing) in my car. I keep some gloves in case weather is colder than expected and to make sure I didn't accidentally forget them at home. Ditto on umbrella. I always got some reusable shopping bags in my trunk. Fuck paying for shitty plastic bags at grocery shop.

My mom's trunk is literally full of random crap that she uses maybe twice a year. But she loves having it there.

Using random cars (wether self-driving or not, e.g. regular taxi) would have to be much better to payoff for loosing this advantage.
Yet another insignificant programming notes
alas, in many states law enforcement and other groups are finding ways to continue profiting from marijuana prohibition - legalization is regulation, and they make punishments stricter for some 'crimes' while legalizing other things. For instance, plant count. Some proposed laws do things like legalize growing 6 plants... while 7 remains a felony, and all while not defining a plant. Or in Colorado, while growing a few plants became legal, processing them into hash with solvents became a 2nd degree felony.

In my own experience, police in Oregon and Colorado have started enforcing DUI and public consumption for marijuana rather than possession - and those charges carry higher punishmebts than minor possession used to carry. My neighbor was raided by a swat team last year, fully armed, with emergency support, for alllegedly being over plant count (a municipal court type violation...).

So, things are moving sideways. The people addicted to making perverse profits are predictably not keen to let go.
So...I actually am a senior digital marketer who has been doing this stuff for over a decade. The naming conventions aren't an issue, and automating through another analytics platform has its own issues (GA for example won't track FB's view throughs unless you manage it all via an ad server that can get the post-impression performance from FB).

My ask was around whether anyone had solved for this use case in FB since the documentation on Custom Events is limited in this regard. My broader point is that having seem MANY different ad platforms in my time, I'm disappointed that FB's is so limited compared to something like AdWords which, despite its issues, I still consider the gold standard in terms of UI/UX.

Your last note about making it unnecessarily hard on purpose is an interesting one that I've heard floated on more than one occasion. I think there is probably some gain for them in not giving super granular data on this as it leads to inefficiency in ad spend which in turn means higher CPMs for them. The counter-argument I've always made is that if you provide an amazing ad platform with great tools to drive performance, advertisers will shift more budget to you away from competitors in such a manner that should offset losses from people cutting out more of the crap inventory.

There's also the possibility they don't prioritize giving their ad platform love because it nudges people to PMDs and they have a lot to gain by growing that ecosystem. If your partners are doing all the development work for you to build their own interfaces AND they are driving more media sales, that might be enough to drive a strategic shift away from their own platform. I'd be very shocked if this were the case though.
AMD management is dysfunctional (think late Commodore). They are perfectly ready to throw away $300m on a shot in the dark (seamicro) but are unwilling to hire actual developers to support their current hardware (gpu drivers still single threaded).

According to http://blog.sfgate.com/ontheblock/2014/06/09/how-much-is-a-p... depending on the location, a parking spot in SF can be worth anywhere from 25-100K. Anecdotally, this makes sense, since I've heard of parking spots costing $250-300/month to rent, which would be roughly the payment on a 30 year mortgage for 50-80K.

Many people will prefer to keep individually used cars. Cars is not only transportation, but storage too. From children seats to umbrella to things you bought at previous stop.

The random self-driving car is pretty much the same as public transport. Individual cars seem to be still a thing, even though we have buses, taxis etc. Having random car pick you up is not some totally new idea that wasn't tried ever before.

Thanks for writing this. I'm glad people are pushing back against the insanity of the diamond marketing.

But you're still buying into the concept of the gifting of rings, when this is a recent phenomenon created by De Beer's. Unless they were European royalty, your great-great-grandparents did not exchange rings. Commoners did not have this custom until the twentieth century. When you suggest getting non-diamond rings, you perpetuate the expectation that people should exchange rings, continuing De Beer's advertising campaign.

My wife and I got married without exchanging any rings for this reason. I thought that I might need to explain my position on rings to friends and family, but we've never gotten so much as a comment about it.

It's super impressive! But it won't run on 64 bit Windows.

I recently wrote a simple 32 bit Windows app that runs on 3.11 (with the 32 bit subsystem installed) through Windows 10. On the more recent Windows versions it supports theming and it's per-monitor high DPI aware. That is to say, it looks and works like a modern app.

To do this I had to build it as a freestanding binary with MingGW and do some version probing and dynamic DLL lookups but altogether it wasn't too hard.

BBC is right in its analysis, this measure only targets 20% of Indian wealth. The richest 5% owning 80% of Indian wealth are at ease, only poor and middle class troubled. Moreover this 20% money will be available to them as cheap loans. The total money owed by big corporates in India is way bigger then this parallel black money. Also the person Rajan who was planning to reign this loans is forced out of office.

Modi is Indian version of Donald trump building Great Wall across India against corruption in media.

A normal Indian will never know that black money outside of India far outweigh anything in Indian homes.
WinAPI and glib are different things. Compare WinAPI to libc API and Xlib. And I'm sure, you can run X application from 1990 on current Linux. I've learned X programming in 2005, and many resources and mans were dated 1990-1995. They all worked.

> Startups are overdosing on ambition these days

> Not every billion dollar business starts with a billion dollar idea. Not everything unfundable by VCs is unworthy of doing.

It's interesting the author is being a VC is understandably blinded by the bubble that never reports on such businesses. The vast majority of businesses created in the world, i.e. almost all small businesses, are exactly that. It's been done before and it's being done now, in large quantities. It's just so common that people don't feel writing medium posts about it and you don't tend to call them startups per se without the VC-funding and fast growth factor[1]. If you restrict the definition of a startup to this, then almost by definition you need such ambitious visions.

I remember Joel Spolsky talked at Startup School a few years back on this subject and he was spot on[2].

If ever there was a character where it wouldn't matter, it'd be the one of Major Motoko Kusanagi. Her lack of a human body makes it entirely irrelevant what race she is portrayed as.

This trailer is not that good which makes me feel like the movie is low budget. Too bad. The went too dark and over futuristic. The whole point of the original was that even though people choose to be cyborgs, they still want to be human. The city was still Asian looking. Lots it's lost by making this futuristic. Major never looked Asian to me. Even Lucy looked better than this.

Indeed, several very powerful quotes. This one was a bit of a gut punch. "Votes exchanged for services rendered" is, retrospectively, exactly how I (and everyone I know) has engaged with our American democracy.

>non-participation can (and is) often argued to be perfectly “rational” in a kind of homo-economicus argument pushed ad infinitum. Reducing “democracy” to its most transactional structure — votes exchanged for services rendered, the formal motions of a liberal republican state for at least a plurality of citizens — neoliberalism achieves a feat that the great revolutionary and reactionary movements of the 19th and 20th century never achieved: unique among critiques of parliamentarianism, neoliberalism discourages participation without undermining legitimacy.
The original soundtrack by Kenji Kawai, like Vangelis' Blade Runner soundtrack, is what helped make the film a timeless classic.

I suspect that the 99% number is a reflection of "unique number of fake content objects" rather than "number of times all fake content objects were shared or viewed".

Canadian Exceptionalism
Ever since I learned about SLAM/SfM I was wondering why are both feature based and direct methods outputting point clouds. If you detect a line of points why store it as points when you could store a vector representation, line primitive. A win in storage, tracking and potentially drift correction (easier to correlate?).
I propose a fundamental principle that should be obvious, but apparently isn't.

Public policy should aim to improve average quality of life in the short, medium, and long terms.

We live in low-population-density areas because we get more, higher quality housing for less money, shorter lines, less crowded public places. We drive instead of taking transit because we get where we're going faster and more comfortably, sitting down, with our personal space bubbles intact.

Everything is tradeoffs. You can already make these tradeoffs for yourself by moving to SF or Manhattan, which is generally ill-advised unless you make so much that the astronomical housing costs don't hurt too badly. Why should the rest of us be required to make these tradeoffs? What are we getting in return? 'Cause it sure isn't better commutes or better homes.

If your argument is long-term sustainability, we have electric cars now and we've had nuclear power for quite some time, and a public policy kick in that direction is, I'd argue, critical to long-term quality of life.
There no permanent settlements, but people do use the land, e.g. nomads pass through. Presumably, they'd notice if someone tried to wall it off.
