Almost everyone living right now. And yes you are right, coal is horrible. But atleast i can imagine some piece of technology sucking co2 and other toxic gasses out of the atmosphere. Less so with irradiated Elements. How to get radioactive saltwater out of the Pacific? Can't imagine how one would go about cleaning that mess up.

Think of the near SciFi Solutions Tepco tries to Contain the irradiated groundwater. If you have to spend the Energy equivalent of another nuclear powerplant trying to create artificial Frozen earth barriers just to POTENTIALLY contain the mess you've made... Things get surreal.
I really hate seeing posts on Chromebook forums where some asks of they can do 'X' on a Chromebook and the answer is "Yes" but then goes on the mention crouton. It's like going on a Mac forum and saying that yes your Mac can do that if you install Windows.
Google could provide easy ways to control Internet traffic and to gain root access. For example, they could grant access to builtin linux iptables which doesn't cost anything to implement. And Google is easier to influence than noname chinese company.

Or they could not to sell Android license to companies not repecting consumer's privacy.

Even if I got refunded, what would I buy instead? Free market doesn't work here and all major manufacturers have some form of tracking and preinstalled software built in. It looks like the only way is to buy a backdoored proprietary device and replace a ROM (and then solve all kinds of problems with hardware not working properly or battery getting drained).
Trump relied on one of the worst aspects of the Human existence, that someone else will fix your problems for you.

Giving people optimism about the future, bettering yours and everyone's existence is motivating for everyone. I believe this for anyone I've ever managed, and for any project I've ever worked on. People work better when they are optimistic.

"Yes, we can" is a motivational statement encouraging people to try. Trump's "make America great again" is based on some misguided notion of nastalgia. When is this period that that statement harkens back to?

Remember, the decades after WWII were great for the US because literally every other industrialized nation had been bombed so badly that they could barely make anything at all. America did well during this period because we had no competition.

So how do we go back to that?
Hey, while we've caught you here as someone knowledgeable, I've always worried about one thing re: nuclear power: What do you think the risks are in terms of nuclear facilities being easy targets for malicious people? Both in terms of the power network being less distributed because of the much higher energy production per plant, but also much more about the potential consequences of leaks and meltdowns. The Fukushima incident gave me serious doubts about whether containment buildings were truly sufficient to withstand a targeted attack in a war scenario. Sabotage is even more scary, but I'm guessing there are safeguards against that too. Sounds a bit paranoid, but seems worth thinking about before putting more and more civilians near these things :)
Whether Trump or anyone can bring back jobs is subjective, and that is the biggest problem with separating "real" from "fake" - I don't believe it is possible to do without in any objective way at all.

The policies being proposed mean that the next time there is a leak, or stolen/hacked e-mail, the party involved can simply deny it is real and then the publisher would have to take the story offline or face some sort of negative weight or ban in Google and Facebook.

The soda cans... does that mean 15.6 ounces by volume of waste (1.3x a 12oz can), or about 20 grams of waste (1.3x a 15 gram aluminum can)?
Good insight.

I agree That thanks to Apple now we expect beautiful electronics, and even the most oblivious to Apple person benefits from it. It took a very very long time for the industry to take note and pick up the pace. Now that it kind of did, I think people disregard Apple as the originator. But worse than that is seeing Apple blowing its own horn, not with this book which is kind of cool to buy (even if strange coming from them) but from their recent marketing and celebratory moves.
I have heard talk of this before, it would be great to get an answer from someone who works at Spotify. I wonder if saving the tracks in the playlist and not creating the backup until the next week would get around that? There is no way they are track all plays, saves, playlists, skips for every user over all of time.
> and has a start up of 10 seconds to compile via Webpack serverside, or 18 seconds if we're doing it inline via JSPM, and compiling client-sid

That's crazy, you should check you're not running more stuff through babel than necessary. (Edit: also why are you compiling via Webpack serverside at all, that sounds like a bad idea)?

> I can't wait till browsers have native imports, and support all of ES2016 ...

Same except once we have native imports, I'd happily stop with what Chrome has now/then, give up the rest of ES2016 for not having to have a build step for local dev.
>Academics certainly has a liberal bias, after all, look at where they get most of their funding.

It was Vannevar Bush who created the NSF. It was the Clinton era, IIRC, in which Republicans all of a sudden decided that funding for basic research was a partisan issue dealing with the role of government, rather than a nonpartisan matter of kicking ass and taking names.
I disagree that it's enough to explain the election result even remotely or that it's something the facebook should do something about right now.

Fake news are easy to debunk and the same lie which takes advantage of network spread can also be debunked by the same measures.

Again if people really want to believe in something no amount of rebuttals are going to change that.

What's far more concerning is the kind of exaggerations that the traditional media use to blow everything out of proportion.

We all live in filter bubbles some in very tightly controlled bubbles others in more open bubbles but they are all bubbles.

I have yet to see any proof that fake news are effecting how people vote on any serious scale. Maybe some people here and there. But to claim that it's a problem for the election is simply another attempt at trying find a reason other than the obvious one, that many people who voted for Trump did so because they live in another bubble than those who votes for Hillary. That they have different perspectives and different problems, different dreams and fears.

Thats the reason we votes different and fake news aren't going to change the overall world view we have there.
I miss the obligatory mention to D.E. Knuth - The Art of computer programming:

http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=2221790

I remember a friend and I used to play with this chapter while in college, complaining how bad the random number generator in Pascal was because it could not pass a cube test (get 3 random values as x,y,z points and plot them in a cube - after 1000-2000 iterations the cube showed a lot empty places - some PRNGs even showed checkboard patterns).
And even bloggers get randomness wrong!

Most of us have an intuitive sense that random things are evenly distributed, which is true in the very very long run, but not true at all on the scales we generally experience things.

This is not true, actually. A random variable can have an even distribution, but it doesn't have to. It might have a normal distribution, or even some kind of skewed distribution.
I didn't mean to make the point so C-centric. I'm not just talking about C programmers. I don't think we should all write C all the time.

I went back to C and Lisp in my spare time because I'm already invested in those languages, between C itself, and CPython.

The common feeling I've seen repeated is doing OOP for a while then getting tired of it, and casting it off.

> I'm sure it inflates one's ego

I'm sure that's true for some, but it would be shortsighted to think all programmers who dislike OOP are just full of themselves and don't have any valid insights.
I know this is bleeding over from our previous conversation, but the only case I have made wrt this topic is my opinion that it would be nice if critical thinking was more of a cultural force than it currently is. I would play your game and try to make the case that you want me to make, but I am not sure what data I would be able to source for that even if I suspect it to be true. Nothing wrong with having triggers, I was just using "alt-right" rhetoric to tease you a little bit.

Because all we've heard about Hillary and Obama is how they'll put coal out of business. I'd be curious how a supportive news media didn't pick up the second part of that story.
ehh yes I did read it and no it's not established.
> and 30 years later the wild hogs in germany are still radioactive

So is the 300 million year old chunk of coal being burned in a factory and that banana you ate yesterday...

This is how FUD spreads. What does it even mean for something to "be radioactive?" How much "radioactive" is bad?

Would you have liked them balanced with 12 pro-Trump pieces or 12 anti-Hillary pieces? Sometimes things are true. Saying they're true isn't bias. It makes no sense to have "balance" when what that means is publishing a non-true thing in order to balance out the true thing you just said.

It's true that Donald Trump is lying, feckless fool. That doesn't need balancing. We can argue all day about why people voted for him, why they rejected the incumbent elite, why they wanted a change, and so on. But that doesn't really change the facts.
This is not so bad. I think that lies in the media are good if they help to balance public opinion.

The world that I'm really scared of is one where everyone agrees about everything and people who disagree are locked up; that's where I saw things going before the election (when I thought that Hillary was going to win).

Chaos and disagreement is one of the most important things in our society. We always need at least two sides to every story (even if one side is a complete fabrication) - Balance of public opinions is the most important thing for freedom.

That certainly sounds like a claim to be legit. Does Netflix have a stronger claim?
I'm anti-nuclear because we don't really know how much it costs.

The cost of cleaning up after very rare disasters has to be worked into the price, but the Fukushima incident is still ongoing. We're not even sure if the current efforts will prevent more radiation leaks, and perhaps the cost will continue to climb.
> The implication here is that somehow Trump conned people into voting for him.

I don't know how you're getting that implication from the sentence you quoted.

> I put the probability precisely equal to Clinton holding the secret to politics and doing really well.

She doesn't hold the secret to politics, she's just incredibly experienced. And, if there is a "secret to politics" it's very much the various things she was accused of: being double-faced, managing bribes, etc. Those things don't make you electable, they're just good at keeping you in power.

Like I said, getting to power and staying in power are very different skillsets.

I agree with all of these points and am rather a pro-nuclear myself. But the Chernobyl / Fukushima risk cannot be dismissed. What would be great is a form of nuclear energy that doesn't run this meltdown risk. I hear contradictory opinion on Thorium. Does Thorium eliminate this risk?

Last year, I launched https://devmarketing.xyz

I'm really proud of it for a few reasons:

1. It was a response to an observed need. I was getting daily emails from devs asking me about product marketing. I believed that devs who learned marketing could be unstoppable when it comes to launching products.

2. I created it on the side, while working full-time.

3. In its first 3 months it did $28,433 in revenue. This allowed me to go full-time on my own projects this January.

If you build an audience, and earn a good reputation, selling your expertise is a good option.
Although it might last a long time in it's own niche. Perforce is definitely still alive and kicking in the games industry. Git might eventually return to just being the VCS of choice for the linux kernel.

Wikipedia says that Open Whisper Systems has received a significant amount of funding [1] from the Open Technology Fund, run by Radio Free Asia [2], a US-government-run propaganda organization.

Of course, this is the arm of the US government that very actively doesn't want back doors, because they operate in territories controlled by other not-necessarily-friendly governments. They need communications to be reliably secret, and they have no need to tap those communications. It's the same reason that government funding for Tor isn't inherently a problem for Tor's security, and you see other parts of the US government, like the FBI, trying to hack it.

It's definitely worth worrying that the government could decide that this part of its mission is no longer worth funding. But it isn't likely to be a risk of back doors. (Especially compared to all the other usual risks, notably simple bugs like Heartbleed and Weak DH.)

Hardly anyone does this, but it's certainly possible to follow a varied set of people on Facebook. Left, right, non-political, religious, irreligious, American, European, Trump-loving, Hillary-venerating, and so on.

Nothing stops a person from creating a set of signals that Facebook will use to generate a mixed content feed that's representative of a broad range of views.

The problem is that almost no one uses Facebook like that.
It is totally mind-boggling for me that the same people who are the strongest advocates of CO2 emission cuts are usually, the same time, the strongest opponents of nuclear power. Nuclear power, which is the only one economically viable way to achieve serious CO2 emission cuts they advocate.
The lack of details in the obituary make me think he took his own life.

Regardless of how he died, Hahn's story taught me it was possible to learn and build without the latest and greatest tools and equipment. His approach to safety was concerning (to say the least), and he stole a lot of the nuclear material he used, but I think it's important to realize that amazing work can be done without millions in funding. This is probably not a huge revelation for the field of computer science, as even a powerful computer can be bought for relatively little. However, it's easy to look at the equipment used in the physical sciences and think that you need the same equipment to make a meaningful contribution to science. A world of possibilities opens up once you have the idea that you can make the equipment you need to run the experiments yourself.

One of the things I love about the internet is that we can share our experiments and hacks with each other. There are a lot of great YouTube channels that are spiritually aligned with mentality behind Hahn's reactor. I'd personally recommend Applied Science, as well as Cody's Lab, and I'd be interested in hearing about any channels that other people find interesting.

I would add "Easy to find your friends," which is the killer feature for me. With FBM, you can just search for someone's name. With many of the federated alternatives, you end up searching for something like "xxBluntlordxxSk8rBoixx" which is really annoying and unprofessional.
It actually depends entirely on the design of the reactor whether or not the plant can be used for peaking power.

France used nuclear plants as load followers (their entire fleet). It stands to reason that one could be designed as a 'peaking' power plant if one had the desire.

Nuclear aircraft carrier and submarine design are good at load following and may be suitable for "peaking" with some modification.

Nuclear is expensive when compared to coal/oil/gas, but it's a bit of a catch-22. It's expensive to build a nuclear plant because we don't build very many, so you never get a real economy of scale in the production. Also they're expensive to insure/decommission, so they kind of need to be a state sponsored capital expense.

That's the problem: by and large isn't good enough. No one wants a meltdown in their country. Its why the US military stopped carrying nuclear weapons in airplane bomb bays; they lost a bunch. With nukes, any is horrifying. A cite? Kyshtym, Chernobyl, Fukushima, . . .

P.S. I'm still a proponent of nuclear power. It beats coal all to hell. I don't think denying the risks helps; a rational discussion of the benefits and risks of each method better serves us all.
