The "intolerance" Popper talked of preventing was this:

"In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols."

So his justification for this was founded on a prevention of violence. We already have this in the USA, for example, in that we forbid incitement to violence, fighting words and the like. So unless you can show some strong nexus between these statements and actual, physical violence of some kind, you can't use Karl Popper as a justification.
Thanks Patrick :)
So if things don't happen to me, I should turn a blind eye. What a nice principle for a thriving community!
I think you're being overly reductive. The Queen of Canada and the Queen of the UK, being the same person who wields Sovereign authority over both, cannot be independent of herself.
Would those be the new Atmel SAM L21? I see a reference to 35 µA/MHz and 200 nA sleep mode:

So:

(a) yay! super low power processors! Bet you can run these off a couple of long wires and radio scavanging;

(b) ARMs are so dull. [sad face] The MSP430 is a lovely processor to write machine code for. ARMs are just... dull.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion. I think the MSP430s have a monopoly on FRAM, which makes a vast difference in usability, but I'll check these out.
India’s tech bubble is about to burst
See I don't see this as "innovating like crazy". I see it as "adding bullet-list features like crazy", which isn't quite the same thing.

This is always where Apple has excelled eg not adding touch screens to laptops cos it's ergonomically terrible (as Steve Jobs IMHO rightly said).

Apple has also historically taken technologies that have been in the market for awhile and made them not suck. Wireless is a prime example. Anyone else remember the days where you had to setup a wifi connection by specifying encryption type and trying to figure out if you were WEP, WPA1, WPA2 or WPA2-Enterprise? Apple came long and simply let you enter a password. OSX will figure out the rest.

The problem with the new Macbooks (IMHO) is that it represents a change in philosophy. As one review said "USB-C is the future but we're living unfortunately still living in the present" (paraphrased from The Verge IIRC).

How much would it have hurt to have 2 A and 2 C ports?

This rush to market has also led to some compatibility issues between TB3 devices.

A comment I read online (on HN IIRC) went something like "we've moved from a world where if the cable fits, it works to where the cable fits and nothing works". It's a salient point: the cost of a universal connector is putting us in cable hell.

PCs have long been a case of marketing pinheads building incoherent bullet lists (ie throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks). You're seeing negative reaction because people expect more from Apple.
Poor Naval's Almanack
That’s an interesting comment so thanks (and upvoted). I’ve come across the term “externality” used to refer to capitalist enterprises off-loading part of the cost of their economic activity to wider society, e.g. dumping chemical waste into a river. However, I wasn’t aware of what the term specifically means or the difference between positive and negative externalities. I was going to request a follow-up comment to enlighten me but it turns out that there’s already a good Wikipedia article on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Externality

This is why you should access controls on configure large mail groups. I thought this was pretty standard at large organisations. A select few people can actually send to a given group, but anyone else will just receive a bounceback.

Why wouldn't they complain? Because it's unprofessional? Nonsense. If a tool isn't up to it's designed task (especially if it used to be),complaining is certainly in order.

This is especially true with "app stores"; it's sufficiently difficult to get apps into the Apple and Android stores, and sufficiently common to have adware-laden variants, that people will pay for an official version linked from the main project site.

Also true on other platforms where people don't commonly have access to a compiler, such as Windows.
It's politics. How can you assume that they know they're incorrect? And sure, it's being called out now, but that's only because of the election results.

Anything you do to suppress information will trigger the Streisand Effect. Any censorship of it will be routed around because this is the internet.

Don't forget work/life balance. As I've gotten more experienced under my belt, I increasingly value my free time. I no longer have any interest in burning the midnight oil because a company is constantly in crunch mode due to poor planning, understaffing, etc.

Larger companies often can provide a better work/life balance because they have more resources to do so. Now, that isn't always the case--many of them abuse the hell out of their employees because they can, but there often isn't the same "working 80hr weeks" you get at startups.

I've found that increasingly the dollar value of my free time is one of the most valuable "perks" a company can provide.
I have to disagree on that. Unlike the more vertically oriented iOS devices with their A series processors, Mac pricing has always been highly volatile, and new form factors always start at high prices which quickly degrade as Apple perfects the manufacturing processes. Macbook Airs, for example, started out as premium-priced devices, before settling into the entry-level.

I can't find hard numbers for MBPs, but here's a list of prices over years for Mac Pros; from a consumer perspective, the changes are essentially random.

They did it because the lightning port is proprietary and digital. You need to pay them to license it, and they can put DRM on it when they eventually choose to. That's main reason that they will never admit.
Mandala Effect
They're offering up AP's count, but if the results below Knowledge Graph are fake, the best Google can offer is "trust that Google is right on the top section". Given that the first search result is so wrong, it's hard to trust Google in this regard.

Also, consider Google often tries to answer questions based on text from high-ranking results. So while final election results may get you the Knowledge Graph section, asking a specific question about the election results may inadvertently cause Google to source it's answer from a bad link like 70news.

You assume there is anyone working on Office 365 OWA who is doing anything but the mandatory re-skinning whenever MSFT rebrands their Office/cloud offerings yet again.

But evidence points to the contrary; to wit, they have yet to implement S/MIME signed email in anything but an incredibly useless way: the email is not displayed, but a link says "This is not supported in the current view, please click here", and when you click it a popup (Yes! A real 1997 era popup! That your browser will complain about and induces even more clicks! OWA loves them!) appears that displays the actual message but fails to verify the signature.

React does merge setState if they are within an event handler. It goes that more aggressively in Fiber though because setState is deferred.
Deep Learning Baby Monitor Keeps an Eye on Your Crib
Yes, there's more raw data there, but it's not always useful until it's aggregated and analyzed. Not everyone has time to sift through raw CSPAN footage or census data (I try). People (myself included) rely on sources for that. If some breaking news is happening, spotty raw data from the front lines can be really misleading about what's actually happening. You can also see the money draining out of traditional long-form reporting (and polls).

These outlets more and more rely on rhetoric, opinions, and emotions instead of facts.

I think part of it is that incentives are misaligned. I didn't want to throw shade on one side, but the Les Moonves quote, "It may not be good for America, but it's damn good for CBS." I think in addition to a news businesses focusing on being the best and financially successful, there's focus in politics where the only goal for each side is on winning instead of being right or living up to some ideals.
You're the exception. Github has commoditized software to the point where most programmers think it's worthless.

shaping opinion != changing views.

fake news helps in reinforcing views already held, which matters.
If by "bias" you mean the systemic blindness against the polling data showing the possibility of a Trump win, I agree with you.

But if you are implying that having a strongly-held political opinion is "bias", then I disagree. The idea that academics, or anyone else should be perfectly neutral (if that's your implication) doesn't really make sense.

The MOS 6502 also has quite easy to emulate opcodes. Hence why it is perhaps unsurprising to find one even embedded in an audio library as in the article here.

When I had to write some 6502 code for a lab class in college I didn't like the debugging options in most of the emulators I found and did write my own mini-emulator in JS (or maybe it was PHP; it has been a while) to debug some of the specific parts of code I was working on in that lab class.

> Yesterday's anti-patterns are today's best practises and best practises of today will become tomorrow's anti-patterns

I'm not sure where you are getting this information, but I'd ignore the labelling of things as best practice and anti-pattern and delve deeper into the reason why some design is a bad fit or good fit for the problem you are trying to solve.

A made up example to illustrate:

It may be seen as an anti-pattern to have a site that requires JS and cannot function without it. Tim Burners Lee would not be impressed with you.

On the other hand if you are developing a paid-for web app and you know the users are happy to have JS enabled to use it then this may be less of an issue.
+1 Wish I knew about spark before I set out to implement my own SaaS application, it looks excellent. The pricing is on-point as well. I wonder if the licensing lets me deploy it for my customers.

However, I think http://saasful.com goes beyond reinventing the wheel. Basically you get a human to handle your requests like css & content changes, anything related to your website . On top of not having to code, you get a completely managed-by-humans support on an ongoing basis and I think we are focusing more on being the "on-call go-to-guy" for all of your website related requests.

I'm not advocating against spark (it's awesome) but I feel like there's more itch to scratch by moving beyond just the "build-vs-buy" into "maintain-vs-outsourced-at-deep-discounts" if that makes sense.
Good point, it is the same metaphor, but signing is the essential action. What do you do with the log book? You sign it.

Another reason I prefer sign in is because there's less discord about its usage. I have never seen anyone try to write signin. Maybe they'll hyphenate it, but even then people seem less inclined to use sign-in as a verb compared to login.
If the news said this person murders puppies for fun, most people would close their mind to the possibility of voting for them.
I'm okay with taxes going up, but isn't that just how taxes are? Pacifists don't want their taxes to pay for the military. Pro-lifers don't want national healthcare to cover abortions. Some people think NASA is a waste of money.
>In most states you have to pay that year's franchise tax (the $800 in CA) before you are allowed to dissolve the company or surrender your qualification, and there are also filing fees for each of these things...

Actually you would not have to pay the CA $800 franchise tax so long as you dissolve/cancel the qualification before the yearly due date and there is no separate filing fee to cancel the foreign LLC qualification in CA.

The only time the $800 fee would need to be paid is if the business was not dissolved/cancelled before the annual due date, then the $800 would need to be paid before CA would accept dissolution and CA will come after the franchise tax + penalties.

>In general legal and tax is not the place where you want to be trying to innovate.

Its not "innovation" its practice. And after you have formed thousands of businesses for people you can identify the best solution for their needs. I wouldn't recommend the "hack" for most businesses, but under a very specific set of facts where the LLC is just for liability protection and the CA $800 franchise tax is prohibitive, there are ways to do it at the trade off of continuity of the business, and this is one of the rare instance continuity might count for nothing.

I'm no mobile developer but I guess that being able to share classes and libraries(that are non UI/mobile specific, mostly services and domain/business logic) among all the .NET platforms. So you could use the same libraries for an android,ios, windows phone client, a desktop GUI client, a webserver, a static website.

In theory at least...
My understanding is that code execution is tantamount to getting root, because there's always something to exploit.

But for practical purposes, running a botnet as a user and running a botnet as root end up accomplishing about the same thing.

Stop talking nonsense. The first version of Linux came around 1991-1992, with a plethora of GNU programs to be used on it. The oldests of the current open-source BSDs were released 1993. That's why Linux got any success at all.

Yes, but if you consider on what systems people listen to music (personal computers, not servers) then unprivileged code execution can be actually pretty serious.

You could get access to their email. You could steal their private SSH keys. Steal the browser's cookie cache. Get access to their password manager. Pull API keys out of private code bases. etc.

So I wouldn't shrug it off.
The best one I've been in was a scientific conference mailing list where the first email sent out instructed users to reply with "Unsubscribe" if they wanted off the list, but the reply-to address was set to the post-to-list address. So ordinary replies were converted into reply-to-all. Hilarity ensued.
There is a scale of insincerity to rudeness. I've been in cultures where each of those is considered respectful and reasonable.

The onus is very much on corporate America to accept diversity. Right now, the only persons of color who are hired are ones who have mastered the culture, for example. That doesn't have much to do with technical skills. That's almost the definition of discrimination.

Respect has to do with how you feel towards a person. People can read through the language used, and as unprofessional as "Fix up your shit NOW" may sound, the details of body language, tone of voice, and facial expression can make that disdainful, angry, respectful, or any of many other things, depending on how you read it.

Why would the right need to offer "excuses" for Trump's victory? And you seem to think that if some smug leftist calls someone a bigot, it's incumbent upon them to "prove" to the smug leftist that they're not.

That's some rather odd logic.
I like the advice. Would be great if this post had some more real life examples to back it up.
while it may seem similar in principle, it is very different at the detail level - radiation even while it is done from several directions still seriously hits a lot of healthy tissue (even proton "knife"). And i think the radiation burn (at the level of several Sv per session deposited at the tumor site) while is definitely deadly for the cells isn't exactly the thermal burn, with cells dying differently and thus different by-products, etc. With the local IR burning by the probe you can also suck the "ash" out right away saving the body from the burden of dealing with the massively dying cells' by-products.

To be clear: I'm not saying I support DAPA, I'm saying that and DACA are the two immediate scenarios that were on the table for the election.

As I noted in my comment, I do support DACA.

For exactly the reason you state above, I'm not sure how I feel about DAPA: The same moral problem (of removing a parent from a childs life) exists in any scenario where a parent commits a jail or deportation-eligible non-violent crime.

How the New Overtime Rule Affects Your Sales Comp Plans
Lots of millennials are in their (early-mid) thirties already.
Honestly, I don't believe that anyone in the modern era really got fat because they were following guidelines.

I think it's much more likely the fact that we put sugar into just about everything, portion sizes having gone up, edibility of foods having gone WAY up (texture, taste, sugar/oil/salt portions), manual labor decreasing, sedentary habits increasing (tv, movies, video games)...

The first world and especially the West faced a storm of changes which individually might be fine but which together form a nightmare health scenario.
A point on the 2d plane represents a preference (if we imagine that there are only 2 real-valued issues in the world). The regions shaded in a particular color are the regions where a normal distribution of popular preferences centered there will elect the corresponding candidate.

I assume that individual simulated voters just rank candidates from least to greatest by cartesian distance, or do that and then use a random cutoff for approval voting.
Thanks, for paradox.

It's not a wild west when you call people out because they are unpleasant. In modern world (as I see it) you create a competition and public follows best one.
