These sorts of lawsuits are going to be necessary with the rise of Trump's EPA--or what should be called Coal Protection Agency. We're about to enter a brave new world of environmental governance, one that is led by a climate change denier and one that believes "global warming" is a Chinese plot to weaken our economy.
Maybe this is the start of a sanity check in the IT world. Geeks are dorky and weird, and most of us have big social awkwardness. Maybe we'll find a good middle ground, where we could stop caring about looking cool and using the latest trendy tech, and just get back to be good professionals.

It's great that Firefox finally has this option and I'm surprised that so many people dislike it; it's the single most important feature why Opera is my default browser.

I guess the reason why it's confusing to people is that Firefox (just like Sublime) doesn't have that little popup displaying a list of tabs while switching, it would make all the difference in the user experience, and make things clear.
Is there any information on when exactly / and for what exact reasons was codeville development abandoned?

China's second carrier is definitely under construction, and the third carrier. a larger model, seems to be.[1] The PLAN's near-term goal seems to be dominance of the South China Sea and the strait of Taiwan, everything inside the "nine dash line". (Or the "ten dash line" version, which goes outside Taiwan.) That's consistent with their land-based anti-ship missiles, new large Coast Guard cutter type ships, and airfields being built on expanded islands in the South China Sea.

China now has some blue-water naval capability. So far, it's been used mostly to protect China's supply chain, in anti-piracy operations. That's good practice for operating far from home base. This worries some people. There are very few countries today with a military that can operate effectively on a large scale far from home. China may want to join the superpower club.

What is also impressive is that it doesn't feel like a complete black box.

> But after closely studying Git I'm a little bit awestruck; Torvalds is a frickin' genius, a true visionary, and somehow managed to just "get it" and instantly, in a flash of insight, come up with "the solution" for version control.

Wait, what? Git was the response from Torvalds to BitKeeper being proprietary and the author being upset with some kernel developers. It's basically taking what was then state of the art for DCVS and reimplementing it, not coming up with some new paradigm. It's a good program, and to my knowledge it was engineered well, but let's not rewrite history so Torvalds is the father of DVCS.
CQ has been used for over a century as a call by radio operators (mostly in Morse code, where it's encoded as -.-. --.-). It's a general call that invites any operators that receive it to respond to you.

Not much loss in high voltage lines and required transformers. (Use Ohm's law.) Much less than inefficiencies inherent in tiny power plants, which can rob you of more than half power in the fuel of it were burnt in an efficient plant. (Cooling on a small scale is especially hard.)
Similarly with wind turbines, less with solar.

These losses are accounted for and are a reason (other than problems building really massive plants) why there are more than one in every country.

No, you cannot build enough renewable power to replace even a single nuclear plant in most of Europe. In the US, you'd have to build these in the desert to even come close, but maintenance would still make it hard to equal cost over time.

google's mistake was...wtf was the point of glass? to look like a rich cyborg douchebag?
If only that were true. If you remember a few years ago, an experiment seemed to (incidentally) show particles travelling faster than the speed of light [1], which would have been an exception to Einstein's well established theory. The researchers, did not assert that their observation was valid, but instead were asking the wider community to help them find the flaw in their experiment. But just the remote possibility that there might be the obscurest of exceptions to the theory set the physics world abuzz. Had the observation been confirmed, the researchers would indeed be famous.

But in contrast, for example, studies have now effectively discredited the widespread and long-standing belief in the effectiveness of mammograms [2]. Are the authors of those studies rich and/or famous? Have we as a society redirected resources from executing and encouraging mammograms to potentially more effective solutions? Not really, I would say.

So why the discrepancy?

A number of reasons I'm sure, but imo the biggest factor is probably RTP (repeatably testable predictions). Fields of science where it's easy to make and test predictions tend to be very different (in quality) from fields where it is difficult/expensive/impossible to test predictions.

Guess which category climate science falls into?

The (not-yet-testable) long term predictions of the climate scientists may turn out to be right, but the shorter term testable ones have an unimpressive track record [3].

Genuine question: Does anyone here have confidence in the common agw claims based on their direct analysis of the data/science (rather than their analysis of the credibility of the parties)? If so, could you give a brief explanation?

While it's true that robots do not pay taxes, they also do not buy anything either.

That's informative. Thank you.
Yes but... evidence like this is hard to acquire - the most you can get is convincing circumstantial evidence (if the phone survives get accelerometer and activity use from it. That sounds like a worthwhile branch of forensics)

And even if we do it's hard to go from circumstantial to causal

But as a driver, I can (un)happily attest that I am distracted from the road if trying to do anything non trivial with my podcast app (the only thing I will let myself use)

Having physical on steering wheel buttons will reduce this but not end it.

Perhaps we just ban radios, phones etc as a precaution.

(Ok actually we can do an experiment - force 50% of drivers to never use a phone or similar and 50% donwhat they like. See who's dead after six months)
It's good science - but you'll find that hard to tell amidst the astroturfing armies Thiel has installed here.

An analogy would be to sit in a burning building, arguing that until we've seen the building completely burn down, we can't be sure it's on fire, so there's no point in turning off the gasoline hoses.

All of those suggesting that scientists universally introduce bias are sorely lacking an understanding of the scientific method and process, and confuse their own compromised morals for those of others.

But that's still a magnitude more powerful than what most second / third-tier countries can summon from their entire armed forces.

My German colleagues assure me Google's neural network needs a bit more training on that one.

probably the same in practice, but glass really looked like it was trying to be inconspicuous / disappear, which made it much creepier. specs are so clearly conspicuous and not trying to hide that it makes them seem more harmless.

I don't know why I find that explanation so much more reassuring than my assumption that it was simply a really sloppy version control hack, to denote upgraded deployments.

Even though there are a bazillion other ways to codify DNS subdomains by region, including some sort of reasonable vernacular for the region, I'm glad it's about locales, regions and perhaps even content delivery or timezones maybe, moreso than version numbers.

Every time I get redirected to something like www2.example.com, I've often wondered which obstinate jerk would refuse to move whatever's on www proper, forcing the entire world to suffer eternity in a purgatory named www2.

Yes, that's an incredibly bold statement. Javascript today is probably the most popular language in the world (according to Github; other indices tell a different story), and that gives it the very same role that at once was fulfilled by Java or even PHP: it's probably the first language a newcomer will learn programming with, hence you'll find a lot of unskilled engineers as well as some experts.

So, saying that Javascript devs, just because they're interested in Elm, are "the cream of the crop"... sounds ludicrous.

Absolutely-it's important to consider the selective environment that a trait evolved in and evaluate all possible tradeoffs. You can see this in certain fishes where pharyngeal jaws permit eating hard prey (new food source!) but also increase the processing time for soft prey (bad if you're competing against critters that eat faster). Beaks are good for some reasons and teeth for others.

Actually, yes! From the original manuscript:

Tongtian also means the road to heaven, a fitting epitaph for a deceased dinosaur preserved with outstretched arms. Long, Chinese Pinyin for dragon. Limosus, Latin for muddy, refers to the holotype specimen being found in an unusual posture in a mudstone.
Not necessarily. I imagine the wars of the future will largely be automated and wars will be won or lost almost purely on logistics and manufacturing supply chain management.

What you see is what your friends show you. Facebook is an echo chamber in an increasingly polarized society.

From what I can tell, facebook is occasionally awful to everyone, about equally. It takes down posts it shouldn't, because it's not trained ethics experts deciding, it's low paid contractors/workers trying to follow guidelines for removing content and banning people in an messy world.

It's just that people only hear about their friends issues with the site, because their friends are like them in outlook, and because the algorithms behind facebook that surface posts tend to prefer posts that are like other posts you clicked on.

Now, it's my understanding that a fair bit of fake news was created by people looking for ad word revenue on both sides. I think FB deserves critique for allowing false news stories to spread, and it should be non partisan, because regardless of who won the election, we can all agree that false stories about the candidates didn't benefit anyone except the people getting that ad revenue, and certainly not the voting public.
