You seem to be missing the bits I highlighted:

We find that the buyback led to a drop in the firearm suicide rates of almost 80%, WITH NO SIGNIFICANT EFFECT ON NON-FIREARM DEATH RATES.

There was a more rapid decline in firearm deaths between 1997 and 2013 compared with before 1997 but also A DECLINE IN TOTAL NONFIREARM SUICIDE AND HOMICIDE DEATHS OF A GREATER MAGNITUDE.

Perhaps you should pay more attention.

I accept your claim about your wishes, but I think your arguments are pretty typical of whackjopb gun nuts. I assume this is an example of paid NRA lobbying and blatant lying infecting a whole society and blinding it to realities that are clearly visible from outside the filter bubble.
The main problem with taking out carriers is figuring out where they are. In a war between major powers, satellites will be shot down almost immediately (their trajectories are very predictable). ASW ships and helicopters of a carrier group can make it very difficult for a submarine to get close enough.

You can't just fire a ballistic missile, even with a thermonuclear warhead, at the last known location. By the time it gets there, the carrier group will already be outside the blast radius.

i write an app like this about once a year (usually a java cmdline implementation).

to my embarrassment, i never got it completely right. the last instalment even provided statistics that could be used to compare the effectiveness of different strategies and parameters.

the last recent one featured:

* classic genetic algorithm (population size etc) with different methods for selection and crossover

* dumb hill climbing

* the "additive" method described in OP's app

* switching of methods at certain points (i.e. switch to hill climbing if the genetic algorithm didn't improve things for a certain time)

* bitmap and svg output

* statistics output that can be plotted with a plotting library so you can compare the effectiveness of different strategies

* multithreading incl. tests to find out the sweet spot for the number of concurrent threads

i don't know why but i never really reached the point where my results were of a comparable quality to roger alsings mona lisa or even alteredQualia's image evolver (http://alteredqualia.com/visualization/evolve/).

The fact that we can't physically nor practically build ourselves out of congestion (and that demand is always induced to become the higher the more roadspace we build) doesn't change the fact that it's exactly the rush hour traffic that warrants the construction of new roads, bypasses, ramps, and is used to validate road widening.

No city would be building more capacity without the pain that is the rush hour traffic.
Evidently not enough for Apple to make design/cost concessions though.
This idea that fighting global warming has to start from individual behavior disregards the fact that lifestyle choices have social implications and are likewise constrained by social situations. Individuals are tied to their environment and free will meets constraints in reality. There are people who wish to adopt more sustainable lifestyles, but can't because it would make them unable to find a job, see their family and friends, move around, etc. Individual choices have a marginal impact. And this impact ofter comes with a high cost in terms of comfort.

The idea that change must come from individuals has been around for a long time, without much effect so far. I hope governments can support people who want to live in a way that is closer to their values (sustainability) by actively disincentivize irresponsible and destructive behavior.
Well, they paid good money to license the ARM components and their documentation actually adds to the standard ARM documentation by filling in some device-specific gaps.

But not everything here comes from ARM, look for example at their power management documentation which is (as always) proprietary. Can you point me to the same information in the broadcom datasheet?

That's the problem with any method used to try and determine information about the distant past: you have to make assumptions about your information-gathering method that may turn out to be incorrect. In the case of ice core samples, many scientists ASSUME that x number of layers corresponds to y number of years. Which is fine and dandy until some example comes along which throws that assumption into question. Consider, for example, the "lost squadron" of WWII. These planes were discovered over 200 feet deep under many layers of ice. Therefore, they must be many thousands of years old, right? Now, this doesn't mean that ALL deep ice structures are that young, but it certainly throws into question any conclusions drawn from ice core data. Now, this is my opinion, but I for one feel like many (not all) scientists continue to assume such methods are reliable and accurate. Perhaps they need the grant money. Perhaps they have devoted so much to their research that they just can't accept that all the time they spent drilling ice cores may have been wasted. Or (again, this is my opinion), perhaps they are climate change zealots who feel that they must convince the population they are right, regardless of the cost of their scientific integrity.

Holiday Hack: How to find out if your gift is a winner or dud before you buy
they already offer workmail, remote desktops etc at a similar model (some small dollar amount per month per user). I think this is probably aimed at people whose data is in AWS anyway, so they can get it into dashboards for marketing analysis easier.

if you want api-level analytics stuff and dashboards, have a look at amazon mobile analytics. it's an interesting alternative to google analytics that lets you control the session key (so it's easy to correlate events from front-end and back-end), and the event data is also yours (so it can easily be exported).

Biased by growing up with CUA GUI design principles, I can't help but to think that no amount of amazing code (html, css3, js jit) will give a significant advantage compared to that Win2K form screenshot.

I feel like the "magazine" trend gave way more expressiveness to talk to the user (finer more dynamic layouts) but not much more bandwidth the other way around.
Either Googles AI has very high drawing standards or I am a terrible artist. It didn't guess ANY of my drawings, and they all looked very similar to the other images :(
What I've discovered over the years is simply if you refuse to build it they'll get someone else to do it, and someone else certainly will. That's not too say you should, just that you as a developer have very little power to actually stop it.

In perl you can use:

use re 'Debug';

or even better

use re 'debugcolor';

and watch the state machine matching.

Very useful for debugging.

AWS continues to invest in IaaS as well as PaaS. Investing in one doesn't mean it is sidelining the other.

PaaS is an important market, and it'd be suicidal for AWS to not leverage its IaaS offerings and build platforms on top. This is kind of what Google does with its apps on Android. They have a replacement for every popular app out there that isn't a game.

In this app economy, something like Google Firebase is going to be a huge player if isn't already and that's the segment you can't compete with if you don't have PaaS offerings.

With Google controlling the entirety of developer ecosystem on Android which is the most dominant phone OS by far via Google Play, it is paramount that AWS doesn't turn a blind eye to it.

In a way, GCP might well be the most widely used Cloud Platform out there by virtue of Google Play integrations in billions of Android Phones, we are choosing to ignore that fact at our own peril.

AWS packages itself as a great enterprise offering. But GCP cloud take over business that are mobile first (Snapchat, for instance), I'd say, if competitors like AWS stop innovating and building.
As other said here, Python seems like the good choice; Plus it's a "real programming language". I mean, you can use it for more stuff: web programming, web scrapping, etc. There are a lot of libraries, even for game development.

If you can learn more than one I would recommend learning R as well, rather than other technologies such as octave or matlab..

Funny that more are "rude" than not.
Here's an interview in which Jony Ive somewhat addresses this point:

Go read Flash Boys. It's almost literally "Revenge of the Jocks". You have a jock (Katsuyama) who is naively bro-ing down and schmoozing clients while selling button pushing services to them.

Suddenly some evil nerds come along and use computers to "pick him off"! ("Pick off" is a wonderful phrase Michael Lewis uses but never defines, but it somehow involves computers doing evil things.)

Finally, at the end, Katsuyama builds a new exchange with no nerds allowed.

A fairly powerful, fanless computer with a 6 year warranty that can run multiple 4K displays for less than a well built MBPro is probably worth it to quite a few people. Besides people who just "want" a fanless PC, there are lab applications that require noiseless computers. Noiseless lab computers are VERY expensive. I'm sure there are many other professional use cases where $1800 isn't that much money. Maybe video/audio production?
A few sexist incidents come to mind without even looking them up - Megan Kelly having "blood coming out of her wherever", insulting the looks of both Carly Fiorina and Heidi Cruz, and the whole "grab them by the pussy" remark. So, not once. And you curiously omitted to mention the racism part, which also has plenty of evidence.

The reason it was repeated in the media was because he initially refused to apologise for the comments. After pressure from the media and voters, he did.

It's possibly targeted at those who have never made use of analytics, but might think of it if it comes with minimal effort (and price).

AWS generally tends to complement its offerings such that they can avoid most of existing users of one or more services from looking at other alternates.

From the paper:

At moderate doses, celecoxib was found to be noninferior to ibuprofen or naproxen with regard to cardiovascular safety. (Funded by Pfizer; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00346216.)

http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1611593

The paper draws no conclusions about the relative safety of ibuprofen. The only claim is that celecoxib is not inferior to the other two NSAIDs.

Note that this research study was funded by Pfizer, the company that markets Celebrex.
Chapter 1 of The Little Prince from Wikipedia:

> The narrator explains that, as a young boy, he once drew a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant in its stomach; however, every adult who saw the picture would mistakenly interpret it as a drawing of a hat. Whenever the narrator would try to correct this confusion, he was ultimately advised to set aside drawing and take up a more practical or mature hobby. The narrator laments the crass materialism of contemporary society and the lack of creative understanding displayed by adults. As noted by the narrator, he could have had a great career as a painter, but this opportunity was crushed by the misunderstanding of the adults.

I agree with what you say, but it doesn't support your earlier statements.

I presume it's possible that the limitations of our visual system means we may miss powerful features and hence the ability to build some more powerful abstractions. (I didn't even argue this, just pointed out the process is the same even if features differ)

But I don't see how this supports your original claim of bias, which was: "If multiple humans try to "abstract" a cat, the overlap in underlying processes will be pretty big, making it more likely that we can recognize each other's abstractions."

If humans are good at recognizing each others' abstraction, that's a validation that low-pass (for lack of a better term) filtering the features due to human's physical design still creates very good abstractions and classifiers. That is to say, if anything you're confirming that humans are designed in a way that makes the abstractions they can make maximally useful.
Well an alternative is to have an online portfolio site where you can keep screenshots, examples or even gifs showing your the features of these sites. Also, you should keep the code in case you want to show it as well

I agree, but it's perfectly valid to hold it against a company to exploit those problems in the system for profit, if this goes at a cost of human life.

Well, yeah, but also, sometimes nah, because, for example, a slightly warmer ocean and atmosphere (and changes in weather patterns) will lead to more precipitation in some areas, and those areas could well be the névés of glaciers, where the increased input of of snow exceeds the increased melt-rate.

4 Major Trends Which Improve Business Decisions Today
It's remote exploitable too.
After all, I was just following orders ...
This is an excellent analysis of a bogus argument, and demonstrates the proper way to deal with its ilk. When an 'argument' is constructed from innuendo, when it nominally concedes its failings where they butt against inconvenient truths, but then continues as if it had not, then there is little point in arguing against it with the facts - that is how you conduct a dialog with people who are honest in their opinions. Instead, the best response to this sort of thing is to expose the inconsistent, fallacious and possibly deceitful form of the argument itself.

There are also lots of fake articles from the alt-left being shared with millions in FB.

An example, is the foto of thousands of Albanian immigrants on a boat going to Italy in the 80's, being shared as being the foto of thousands of European refugees running away from the Nazis and going to North Africa in the 40's, that keeps resurfacing all the time.

Articles like this one from NyTimes, implying that this kind of stuff only favours the right are a big part of the problem. It passes a message that censorship is good, but only if it's applied solely to the right wing.

Sadly I suspect corporate decisions get made in a microcosm. Whatever is good for the next quarter or next product. A middle manager would be fired for doing anything else. Or at least reviewed badly. "Sure you did the right thing; but your numbers were down. Sorry no raise/promotion"

So there is no particular person in a corporation that has direct incentive to be responsible.
