termbox-go has a couple of pretty wicked global variables, and they caused me a surprising amount of issues last time I used it. By contrast, tcell has good interfaces, and it shows: tcell even has a SimulationScreen you can use for testing.
Neutron bombardment of your fusion containment vessel creates radioactive material. I am not sure where you get this idea that fusion is 'clean', but everything that involves pushing around fundamental particles creates radioactive waste. There are theoretical designs for fusion reactors that limit the radioactive side-effects somewhat but nothing in this area is clean.

Scaled down fission reactors like the Toshiba 4S can be sized to power an apartment building or city block. There are numerous micro reactor designs available and a variety of companies working to try to create a market for them.

When it comes to terrestrial reactors then fusion reactors will be enormous (need to generate a lot of power to compensate for the huge risk and the massive costs that it will take to build them) and if you are talking about putting reactors in space then it is foolish to consider anything but fission for at least our lifetime.
Cool. I think it's fair to say that we agree

1) There are facts.

2) Facts have an impact on voters.

The open question then is

3) The weight voters give these facts varies from voter to voter and fact to fact.

Is that fair? I can certainly agree to that. What do you think?
But Tumblr already exists.

Honestly, though, that's what 4chan did with /b/ and that seems to work. Though externally most people associate 4chan with /b/, it does free up the other communities on the site to run smoothly, or so I'm told.

Still, judging by most of those comments in here I think people are just eager for an excuse to "call out" someone's missteps. They say it's just a suggestion, or a recommendation, but the implicit warning is there: do what we say or we'll make you hurt. The fear is obvious, given the number of green throwaways people have made just to try to have a rational argument.
Not that I disagree that Soviets and Russians run propoganda machines.

But the atlantic article itself reads like a propoganda.

There are ethnic russians who speak russian living as the majority group in a region called novorussia less than 150 years ago. None of that is false. Why not conduct a plebiscite there? These people will shit on India for kashmir or Israel for Palestine, but will turn a blind eye towards other areas. Propoganda it is too.

I agree and wish there were more 'viewpoint diversity' in academia, in addition to gender, racial, and cultural diversity. Social sciences should allow for more freedom of thought without fear of being ostracized. There is a reason why academia is a polarizing environment: personal ideologies of social psychologists can influence how the topic is studied. As such, for example, conservatives have little influence in the scholarly disciplines. Less that 10% of professors in these fields identify as conservative [1].

I hope more institutions can look at viewpoint diversity more closely [2].

I don't think that's possible in the spirit of open source or free software.

If I under stand you correctly, projects that use a commercial-paid/non-commerial-free project as a dependency would also be required to use a compatible business-paid/personal-free license.

This is what people complain about re: the GPL.

It says that the most important thing is getting paid, and we'll throw the non-commercial people (non-profits, personal projects, etc) a bone, because maybe they'll contribute something back to us.

That's fine to do if someone wants to. But, it's certainly not free software. And, it's not open source either, except that the source is visible.

Like others have said, visible source it's all that helpful if you can't do anything with it.

Business should donate more to free software.

More people voted for Hillary than Trump. This is the second time in 16 years that a candidate has received the popular vote but lost the election. It didn't happen once in the 20th century. The system is in fact broken at this point, thanks to voting rights suppression, gerrymandering, and the sheer madness that is the Electoral College. Even Trump himself in his 60 Minutes interview on Sunday said he would prefer a system in which the popular vote determined the winner, even after his victory.
> So far I have only seen Vulkan on GNU/Linux and Android 7.0+ deployments.

Vulkan is widely available on Windows, not sure how you missed that.

You can also use the Vulkan API today on iOS and OS X via a third-party library that translates between the Vulkan APIs and Metal, called MoltenVK.[0]

MoltenVK is not complete, but it covers the majority of the functionality (including SPIR-V shader ingestion) and I don't see any technical roadblocks to most of the remaining work.

I hate to be the sheeple-ception guy, but :

> We will witness the day when everyone is forced to have a unique internet ID

FB and google can already fuly trace most people's web journeys

> your full name and address are revealed when you visit a website.

They also have your physical data.

> It will have a vast chilling effect on free speech.

Facebook and Youtube's comfort bubbles of information already regulate your ability to reach people, and filter your information sources.

> Everyone who uses non-backdoored encryption will be a prosecuted criminal.

Meanwhile, Whatsapp, the standard bearer of encryption, leaks your data to the parent company, for advertising purpose.

> Uncontrolled free speech only harms government and prevents it from growing.

You're already owned by people in power. Breaking free already entails becoming an outcast in your society. And maybe, just maybe, if you fear the government to take control, allowing such power to concentrate in a couple corporation is not a good idea, and you should drop your dichotomy between private and public entities.
> For example, it would be an idiotic move for Microsoft Surface to remove USB cables and headphone jacks because as far as hardware is concerned they're an underdog.

That doesn't track with history. Apple was a huge underdog when they released the iMac and removed floppies and many non-USB ports.
Fair. I went too terse with the title.
Why would this happen given that semiconductor industry itself is shrinking? I used to work in EDA until recently, but since money in semiconductor is dwindling, people like me have no interest in pursuing ideas in EDA
Zuckerberg seems to be downplaying Facebook's fake news problem, and I'm not particularly optimistic about Google taking it seriously either.

Software engineers are smart- software engineers who work for Google and FB especiallly so. It isn't inconceivable that they, and the people they know, are smart enough to see right through fake news, and that the idea that anyone can be fooled by fake news is probably absurd to them.

Unfortunately in the real world, many otherwise normal, functional people just aren't equipped to do basic fact-checking.

Just yesterday, I got a forwarded fake news meme from my uncle, about a woman who had 11 babies[^]. My uncle, in his 50s, is a college dropout and of above-average (though not stratospheric) intelligence. He is simply not equipped (along with many others I know) to deal with a world where hostile, greedy and mischievous actors are working to shape their reality.

This is an example of where some diversity would help improve tech. The monoculture at the top seems to have isolated the industry from its customers and their intellectual weaknesses.

[^]It happened to be a Whatsapp family group, so I was able to see the story and tell him it was fake...my FB feed is already filtered to hide that sort of junk.
> The whole point of the comment you replied to was that you don't know that - can't know that. People voted under the current system, we don't know what their voting behavior would have been if the voting system would have been based on popular votes!

Obviously it's too late for any change to the electoral college to affect this election. But we could know this in the future. You make what you measure and we're measuring the wrong thing.
I don't believe the issue is an actual dearth of facts. The reality is (and presumably always will be) there are far too many facts to report them all, particularly in an entertaining way.

Editors must make a selection of which facts are relevant and interesting enough to make it into... whatever it is they're editing. When that's political news, that selection bias becomes more important. And in today's age, it can be so extreme that both sides are operating with inconsistent perspectives. Not because someone is lying or misleading.

/Then you add lying and misleading and the whole thing is a dumpster fire.

One thing I just couldn't relate to during last couple of weeks is how all these people are criticizing the touch bar and saying it's a gimmick when they have never used it.

I am ready to listen to you if you come back after you use it for a month. But I think it's funny to make all these conclusions about something when you haven't touched it.

Those “facts” can’t be reconciled in the minds of the anti-Trumpers. Mentally, something has to give. That’s where cognitive dissonance comes in.

His operating premise seems to be: "If a bare plurality† of voters threw their lot for candidate/party/plebiscite X, then, ipso facto, X cannot be considered dangerous or extremist." History instructs that this is a very dangerous axiom to hold.

† Leaving aside the popular vote / electoral college rift, for the purpose of discussion.

Funny, I would qualify as old but I'm of exactly the opposite opinion. Young people are not used to paying for content (newspapers, anyone?) and do not realize free content cannot pay for high quality journalism and thus only provides superficial information.

I believe, as many do, that the health of a democracy is a function of the degree to which the citizenry is informed. Votes were cast, yes, and a candidate was selected. Those are necessary conditions for a healthy democracy – but not sufficient.

The candidate that was selected showed himself during the campaign to be entirely unmoored from factual reality or consistency, and somehow he paid no political consequences for that.

This is important for reasons above & beyond whether one's own candidate won or lost.

Discrediting honest reporting has been the foundation of the whole alt-right approach to the media, and getting acceptance for the lies broadcast by sources such as Breitbart News and Drudge Report. In fact, it's essential to discredit honest reporting if your lies are going to get any traction. And, evidently, it has worked on you.

Sadly, it's even worse than it sounds, because now even the alt-right websites can't tell the truth. For an interesting short piece about this, see the final section of "Donald Trump broke the conservative media" (1). Quote:

One of the chief problems, Sykes (2) said, was that it had become impossible to prove to listeners that Trump was telling falsehoods because over the past several decades, the conservative news media had "basically eliminated any of the referees, the gatekeepers."

"There's nobody," he lamented. "Let's say that Donald Trump basically makes whatever you want to say, whatever claim he wants to make. And everybody knows it's a falsehood. The big question of my audience, it is impossible for me to say that, 'By the way, you know it's false.' And they'll say, 'Why? I saw it on Allen B. West.' Or they'll say, 'I saw it on a Facebook page.' And I'll say, 'The New York Times did a fact check.' And they'll say, 'Oh, that's The New York Times. That's bulls---.' There's nobody — you can't go to anybody and say, 'Look, here are the facts.'"

"And I have to say that's one of the disorienting realities of this political year. You can be in this alternative media reality and there's no way to break through it," Sykes continued. "And I swim upstream because if I don't say these things from some of these websites, then suddenly I have sold out. Then they'll ask what's wrong with me for not repeating these stories that I know not to be true."

Great article thanks! Although the article was about the unfortunate side effect of having contact information publicly available, I also discovered that there is an open source community to establish standards for the back end infotainment systems in cars (and other things). Neat stuff.
Google News allows you to tune which news sources to prefer (under Personalize > Adjust Sources). I have a long list of "news" sites that I mute. It would be useful if there was a way to export or share these lists, similar to some Twitter blocklist sharing services.
Amazing work on this. It really strikes me to see a snapshot of the genealogy of the "technological utopian" viewpoint often seen today. People have believed that computational reasoning could delivery universal truth for quite some time now! Also I find it particularly interesting to note the mythical / religious conviction of these thinkers.

The difficult thing in water jet cutting, historically, was the development of nozzles that can withstand the abrasive fluid. These parts have to shoot a jet of fluid which can cut through steel and ceramic; but themselves cannot be easily cut by the passage of that fluid.

I'd be concerned about the life of the nozzles and the cost and availability of replacement parts.

My usual advice is you want to incorporate when you either have (i) contracts with third parties, or (ii) other people working on the business with you.

It's a spectrum of risk, with coding alone with no customers on one end and a full fledged startup on the other. When you start signing contracts, you want the company to be on the hook for any breach of those contracts. And you'll probably want a separate bank account and a professional looking name on the signature line anyway. More importantly, if someone else is working with you, you need to make sure there's an entity that will own all the IP, and that ownership is clearly defined, with everyone subject to vesting to protect you from the co-founder walking away from the business.

WTF? I didn't mention home schools. I'm in no way against them.

(I see your point though -- I think you are implying that since home school parents are not given any of the money that would be spent in the school district, this strongly encourages public schooling as opposed to home (or private) schooling. TBQH changing this to be fairer to home schoolers would be fine by me, seems like a parallel example. But whatever, I'm trying to have a conversation about transportation here, not education)
so basically its done to gut workers' rights. The person behind the counter isn't an "employee" but a "third-party contractor". How clever. But yet if you protest "inequality" a whole segment of the population will write you off as being a leftist hippie as if nothing's wrong.

If there is ever a violent revolution in our lifetime, I think future generations will read about this stuff in history books as foretelling omens. And I'm talking about the bigger picture here, not just MCD:

* You're not an employee, you're a contractor.

* You have "rights", just not the same rights as the shareholders you work for.

* Don't hate us, you were harmed by a third party, take it up with them.

* Vote for tweedle-dee next time instead of tweedle-dum, tweedle-dee is "for the people" (meanwhile corporation paid equal amounts to both candidates).

I see the bigger picture as eroding the personhood and agency of the poor, through the most elaborate and creative accounting and legislation imaginable.

Which claims they consider worthy of examination, whether they choose to interpret the claims in a more or less favourable light, which figures they choose as their measure of things like inflation, and how important they consider any inaccuracies to the overall claim all act as thumbs on the scale.

For example, I don't think they touched the claim that Trump has a secret communication channel with Russia, even though Clinton repeated it and demanded the FBI investigate it. (It was actually an entirely ordinary bulk email server sending out ads for Trump hotels.) A lot of people still seem to believe that one and think the FBI's rejection of it is proof they were conspiring to elect Trujmp.
tangential question, may be there is some doctor here who can explain - i'm not a doctor and just from pure technical/mechanical point of view i don't understand why for example we can't just insert 2 thin, needle thin like, probes (similar to laparoscopy only much thinner and more flexible), one with video camera and LED and one with IR laser, ultrasound guide it to the tumor and burn the tumor small piece by small piece. Wouldn't it be better than radiation for example?

I have a ThinkPad 450s with touch, and I regret buying one with a touch screen. It's almost impossible to see the screen under daylight, expensive, consumes more power and I only use touch when I use the laptop in cramped places, like a plane flight. Great machine otherwise, but I couldn't find my use case for touch enabled laptops.

For a while, I thought it would be useful if the screen was detachable as in the MS' Surface device, but realized that I'm also not using my iPad that much to justify the use case.
