So you receive a call and it just beeps on says "enter passcode" and you enter the code. Though to be honest it's highly unlikely that will the hypothetical murderer would pick up a phone call unless they were expecting it...

During the election, there were countless stories nearly every day. Trump used all of the hyperbole and fake news articles about him to destroy the competition.

These articles were written by the left-leaning mainstream media and repeated ad nauseam over social media.

I see people that still believe that Trump is going to deport all of the 'Brown people'. There isn't one instance where he said this. The media created this fear through lies and propaganda and made Trump out to be a monster.

They are mostly to blame for all of the violence and protests we are seeing today.

But a Trump win still won't force them to tell us the truth. I'm just glad that the American people did.
So use long-range bombers to soften their deployed forces, missile installations, and ports prior to sending your $20B asset into the breach.

The war games you read about generally assume we're throwing a single battlegroup against an entire nation. That alone should tell you we may have a bit more depth of power than those scenarios suggest.
Looks like we took the site down. I have an Intel Skull Canyon NUC and love it, will be using these from here on out. Be nice to see more companies offer fanless cases.

It's only overwhelming if you jump from technology to technology for real products. I have a list of up and coming technologies that I will play around with and build toy projects on over a year. If it lives up to it's claims, I might consider using it for real products.

Software is fast paced. You just can't ignore all unstable/beta technologies, you'll be far behind the game when they hit 1.0.
I'm not sure about you, but virtually nobody I know can do anything other than basic integer division anymore. The calculator DID cripple our ability to do basic arithmetic.

Not that it's a meaningful thing in itself.
I've managed larger advertising campaigns which would easily meet your $5k/m minimum but agree with the GP that your ad structure is a non-starter for me.

Whenever I've looked at introducing a new advertising channel, I always start with a test run of a few hundred dollars to see if it's worth investing more. I'm not going to drop $5k on an ad without knowing if I'll get any results at all.

It seems like you only offer two options for someone like me:

1. Run a test campaign without targeting and therefore get suboptimal results. This likely just lost you the sale of a bigger campaign (where I might get good results with targeting).

2. Risk spending $5,000 on a channel which doesn't give effective results. This isn't a risk I'd usually be willing to take.

Maybe you're targeting brands who are big enough to experiment with $5k buys or who don't test channels. Either way, I'm really not sure what the value prop is on the self-serve option.
And this one : "Most people use excuses. Don't be most people"
I don't think your too far off with the astrologists angle. So much of economic thought seems to boil down to "we went from A to B while doing X therefor X is responsible".
Well said. The article's title makes it sounds like "more" is somehow good or desirable, but really, the "more" referred to here is likely just a series of failed relationships, which nobody wants. If you look at it from this perspective, it sounds like the "altruistic people" described by the article are actually getting the short end of the stick.
Australian here as well. ICQ was really popular among my classmates when I was in year 7 to 9 at high school. This was right around Napster time as well I remember downloading mp3's (via dial up) and chatting with people all night.

ICQ at school was really cliquey there was a lot of "I'm going to give you my ICQ number but you can't give it to X".

Teenage me was really happy when I got the ICQ # of a girl at school I had a huge crush on (This was pre mobile phones so you couldn't exchange text messages back then or snap chats or whatever the kids use to flirt with each other these days).

When I moved away from home and started university I stopped logging in lost touch with a heap of people as a result. I can't remember my ICQ no. nowadays...
I think you are spot on with the bathroom. It's unbelievable to me how much time people seem to spend in there now. The last two times I've arrived in SFO and went to the bathroom I had to wait for a stall I ended up waiting about 5 minutes till anyone came out of the stalls. Meanwhile you hear notification sounds coming out of some of them. Likewise at work some people disappear in the bathroom for close to 30 minutes. I am becoming more and more in favor of installing jammers in public bathrooms.
Imagine we decide to become closer allies with India then Pakistan, and something like Mumbai happens, only worse. India gets very, very pissed off, and decides that they've had enough.

Fake news absolutely is acceptable. For the posts involving fake news on your Facebook, have you seen more people agreeing with the story - or at least liking it - or more people fact-checking it and getting a like on the fact-check link?

I have always seen more likes on the story itself than on any fact-checking correction follow-up comment.
It probably won't be as big of a concern going forward as self-driving cars become the norm. For non-self-driving, I agree with you.
Yeah there is nothing more annoying than looking at where Waze wants me to make the next crazy turn and the directions are blocked by a notification. I take my eyes off the rainy, busy road to ensure I am turning into the right street and instead see that I received recruiter spam.
> Yet in Uber, a 4.5 means you get your driving privileges revoked.

If that is unreasonable, why is that the system? If I can have nothing but 4.6+ drivers then why wouldn't I want that? If Uber doesn't have enough over 4.6 drivers, wouldn't they simply lower their standards? I can only assume that isn't a problem.
You might also be interested in the book "Dungeons and Desktops". The guy who wrote it does really great videos as well. Do a search for "matt chat wizardry" to see interviews with Robert Woodhead et al.
"The only thing you can say for certain is that people acting intelligently and honestly would never vote such a man into the Presidency. That he's President-elect is a devastating testament to a deep pathology in American politics and culture."

I feel the same way about Hillary: She defended a rapist husband, used the government as her personal piggy bank, used the mainstream media as her attack dog, and conspired against all of her enemies, and tried to steal the white house.

We also have PC culture run amok. Trump is a big 'Fuck You' many intelligent Americans have been waiting for, for many years. It has nothing to do with racism, sexism, or xenophobia.

The saddest thing? The fact that Wikileaks had to bring many of this to light. Julian Assange still hasn't been heard from since his power was cut at the embassy.

Snapchat makes money from more than just ads.

People (and businesses) pay for filters. I've seen people do them for their weddings.

Also, there's the featured content, which seems pretty popular.
Thanks. I was a little miffed that the article automatically assumed that, as you said "a higher number" is "at least a proxy for some type of success". It's just such a terrible and short-sighted assumption to make.

This will remind me to stay away from the "Scientific American" in the future.
This would be fair if she wasn't arguing that the credibility of healthy skepticism shouldn't be tarnished in science.

"Climate believers" attack her credibility, she defends her credibility, but her arguments are invalid from the start because she's not credible?

The group of people who want to research the grandiose climate change narrative from a skeptical angle are attacked because of political reasons not because what they are doing is wrong scientifically.

Climate science should be thankful she exists, not offended.
Next decade, the NYT will run another story titled: "Biggest drop in traffic deaths in 60 years".

Autonomous cars are around the corner and it's the only way to truly make a leap forward in terms of traffic safety.

And people can spend even more time on their apps while commuting, uninterrupted by this soon-to-be-forgotten distraction called "manual driving".

This is a great projcet. One bit of feeeback, it looks like this must be using your phone number to determine location. In my case, my cell number's location is where I lived in 2006, but now I'm in a different state. I think this is probably true of many if not most of my peers as well.

Sounds like there is need for some regulation here, because the risks of fast response time to customer are externalized to other people in traffic.

There could be a law that a driver must have at least one full minute to accept a request. That would help this problem, even if one minute is still a short time to pull over and respond.
Gets me sad all over again that Apple refuses to update the Mac Mini.
Also, just look at that graph they posted (can't be linked to because the labels are not included in the png file). Biggest spike in 50 years? More like a minor blip in a steady downwards trend.
Good for him. Let's compare the 2 languages in 20 years, and see how the language for the infantilized target audience is doing. I'm fairly certain Elm won't even be a footnote in history.

I wish. We've been doing this for 5-6 years now, and it hasn't. Quite honestly, if we could get rid of the worst 20% of questions instantly, life would be a lot better for the remaining 80%... But, identifying those 20% when often SO is their only option is... Brutally hard. I've seen the same person try to post variations on the same question dozens of times before finally getting around the quality checks... Only to have it sink like a rock because of course it was still unintelligible after all that.
> Googling "homeless volunteer YOUR_CITY_HERE" would be a start.

I'm not sure however how it is going to help me with knowing about hiring policies. Also, call me lazy, but I assume at least some of the people may already have information I need and can share. Maybe not true, but doesn't hurt to ask.

Not to diminish the idea of volunteering as such, of course.

> Definitely. Many bars and nightclubs have an unwritten rule that limits the number/ratio of certain minorities at any given time.

"Certain minorities"? Which ones? What kind of limits, could you provide some examples?
Just Radio?

I'm assuming people are listening to podcasts/Pandora/spotify/audiobooks just as frequently , not to mention looking at/listening to directions.

And it doesn't even have a siri/google assistant button? I'd consider that vital.

In retrospect, and especially in comparison, Google Glass really was beautiful, especially the lensless models. I respect the design in a similar way to something like the Microsoft Band, which didn't try to be a watch, but instead embraced the idea of a wrist-interface, with the display on the inside of the wrist, and running in-line with the band as opposed to perpendicular to it.

Maybe I'll feel that way about Spectacles in 2020.

Safer Roads and Cleaner Air with Autonomous Fleets
I'm not sure if I've become more cognizant of bad journalism over time or simply hold journalism to a higher standard with the rise of publicly available data sets which could be used for real insight into questions like this. Whichever one, I am infrequently satisfied with the level of evidence that supports an article's conclusion. I would love to see a truly data-driven news publication that made quantifying uncertainty a priority over creating a digestible narrative for people who'd rather the author does the thinking for them.

Agreed. I've given an Uber driver a 1 rating after he jumped a red light and almost hit a cyclist.

I tried with some facebook comments and articles posted to facebook in chinese and the results were pretty much incomprehensible as well. It was so bad, it makes me wonder - has google actually enabled this for all users?

Also identifying customers
But it wouldn't be a reward. It'd be a fine paid to the government. The only real reason with malicious intent I can see from it is people intentionally hacking companies to bankrupt them or cripple them. But that just means they had weak security anyways

Pence's social policies are even more regressive than Trump's, and his popularity within his party should make it even easier for him to get such legislation passed.
Many do that probably, Indian firms don't for sure, I always block them, spam them and complain via twitter and after weeks of follow up do they remove my email id from their spam emails.
Sure, knocking out tanks is possible with an airplane, but at what cost? And when a tank gets knocked out, you build a new one and deploy.

If a carrier gets knocked out, you lose force projection. Now how hard will it be to rebuild a carrier?

Its the same as the B-2, F-22, and F-35. They're amazingly powerful, but so expensive that you can't afford to lose them in battle
Pence certainly helped unite crucial Republican constituencies behind Trump, but for social liberals (presumably the group we're talking about in this thread) Pence is far worse.

Trump's social views are ambiguous and generally pretty moderate. He came out in favor of LGBTQ rights during the convention and considers gay marriage settled law. He claims to be pro-life now, but was pro-choice until 2011. He's not an active churchgoer, and his daughter is Jewish.

Pence claims that he is "a Christian, a conservative, and a Republican, in that order", and was majorly involved in the Tea Party. He's drawn consistent flack from gay rights & abortion advocates for his time as Indiana governor. His views may be more mainstream for the Republican party, but for the section of liberalism that this CEO likely represented, they're just as if not more abhorrent.
Statistics and data are a means, not an end. Narratives and conclusions must be made by people.

That said, I agree a little more data wouldn't hurt.
It may not be much good in the next World War Level slugfest, but it's pretty darn intimidating to a third world dictator when essentially an entire fortified city shows up overnight in the Bay Of Wherever.
Best Cooking Oil – Cooking Oil
Rice Bran Oil is the best cooking oil popularly regarded as the world's healthiest cooking oil. Many health experts claim that it's the healthiest oil on the planet.http://www.sanjayvegoil.com/best-cookingoil.php
You don't work for NOAA as a scientist to become famous and rich. These are passion jobs. You get it from both sides. Publish something conservatives don't like, get hauled in front of congress to testify. Publish something environmentalist don't like get called a shill for the oil industry. Every side will twists your words and take statements out of context. Its pretty shitty how we treat our scientists.
A vast majority of these claims are extraordinary and have no sourcing. Source on using government as her personal piggy bank?

> exposing struct definitions in header files

Hiding the struct like:

typedef struct foo_t foo_t;
/* ... */
foo_t *foo_new();

kinda forces heap allocs. There are times when you want to allocate on the stack, and not use alloca.

Most of the time, I still keep struct definitions in header files, but API wise I always write functions or macros for anything that touches them and discourage direct access to struct members. Depending on the use case of course. Abstract types have their uses too.

Chrome doesn't add settings for things when extensions can do the job because doing so adds to our support burden and slows further development - it's better to appeal to fewer people and have a simpler and easier/faster-to-maintain product than to appeal to more with higher maintenance complexity.

It's not odd from a security perspective. There is a reason the CIA pays massive amounts of money to Amazon for a completely separate set of hardware from the public.

To be fair, many items in history got popular being ... err, for the infantile; some primarily because of it. But I don't think popularity is one of Elm's goals.

I use what I use because it works for me, and not because it's the fashionable trend; similarly, I think while Java has its place, I'll use Elm when it works for me. And not being dumbed down certainly serves some functions.
Consider the terrain - an FOB in rural Afghanistan is going to have access to a lot of dirt/sand/etc to fill the Hescos, while simultaneously not having restrictions on wall depth due to existing infrastructure.

In a dense urban environment there isn't likely to be thousands of cubic feet of readily available fill material, and a 3-5 foot thick Hesco is going to be much more difficult to emplace than a 12" thick concrete barrier.
Assembly is related to the process of reverse engineering a game - disassemblers translate compiled code back into assembly, so knowing how to read assembly would have been very useful.
