I'm guilty as charged. I predicted in 2014 that within 3 years majority of upper middle class households will have 3D printer just like they have paper printer. Boy, I was wrong and it feels quite laughable claim now. After initial hype of continuous reduction of prices, things have just came to halt. Most people don't want to spend few hundred dollars just to build lifeless models of dragons and there has been no killer application that can justify the price.
The definition of retaining earnings is reinvesting profits in the company's projects; I'm not sure what made you think only non-profits do it. It's pretty common for companies that are growing. In any case, that was just one easy way to show you you're wrong in thinking this:

I find this to be a strange statement when the previous paragraph talked about a class-action lawsuit due to a faulty extruder. Is it an unrealistic expectation now to expect your thousand-dollar 3D printer to Just Work? You can't just promise someone the future and then backtrack when people hold you to it.

> limited meta-programming,

Go reflection is one of the most complicated reflection I've ever seen in any language. Go's / C interop is one of the most convoluted implementation in existance. To pretend that Go is simple at first place is a lie. Go is not simple, it has a limited syntax, which is quite not the same. Go will evolve, whether you like it or not, even if it takes a whole new generation of Go developers and maintainers to get there.

> browsers are in support of the standards

Well, realistically speaking, web components consist of a bunch of different specs and each specification should really be considered on its own merits. Shadow DOM and Custom Elements are mostly ok. HTML Imports spec looks like it was created with the simple "include jQuery widget on the page" use case in mind and doesn't consider anything else. Node.js/npm/CommonJS ecosystem, es6 modules — it's like nothing of this even exist. This is obviously not good enough and that's why Mozilla decided to not support this thing.

> being locked out by proprietary silos

That's a really mean thing to say about an open-source javascript library. Especially considering that Inferno is a reimplementation of React API. I actually think Fb should make React API into its own mini-spec (like JSX or GraphQL) if only for trolling "muh web standards!" people.
The problem with 3D printing / lathing / milling as a service is that particular parts can have orders of magnitude differences in machining costs, and typically you need humans in the loop to figure out if you're asking for something ridiculous (or dangerous, or harmful to the machine...)

These guys are close to that model: https://www.plethora.com/ . Their supposed killer advantage is that they have spent a lot of time deriving a cost model for arbitrary designs which allows relatively unsupervised submissions, but because they're very dependent on that cost model, the number of operations and customizations they support is fairly limited.
I'm glad someone finally said it. I don't have a particular habit of predicting things correctly, but in this case I really couldn't see what the point of a 3D printer was. Even when I was given free access to one I had no idea what I would ever want to build.

`God create human` is actually a Mathematical induction
I'm reading the bible, and found a lot of things.
One of it is:
The process of God creating human is actually the `Mathematical induction`.

0. God must love itself (that must be true)
n = 0

1. God create human by following its image -> Adam
2. Adam -> children...
n => n + 1

So, `God love all human` is proved
The lead has changed to: "David Sacks confirmed he is stepping down as chief executive of Zenefits, less than a year after taking over the troubled health-benefits broker."

The "still the CEO of Zenefits" quote from his last-to-know PR person is now gone.
I disagree. Yeah, it's plastics only, but that's not really that big of a limitation in my opinion. Now, I've printed a yoda or two (who hasn't?), but where it really shines for me is small things that need a little bit of precision to be good.

And yes, I could use a CNC mill an create a lot of my parts and they'd be just as good, probably stronger. The problem is that I live in a studio apartment. Since I don't have a workshop and I don't want to drive to a hackerspace when I want to make something, I'm going to choose not to subject my girlfriend (and preferably not myself) to to the mess and noise of a mill. Plus a printer is so much easier in my experience, I don't need to worry about setting feed rates or replacing bits, I can just click print and go watch TV while it prints.

I'll admit there are things that I can't do that I could do with a mill (I would really like to be able to mill circuit boards), but at least to me a printer makes much more sense for the vast majority of lazy stupid people like me.
Yes, Ramanujan just floated around dealing with whatever number theories inspired him, sometimes in a nearly mystical way so he's not a good example.

Andrew Wiles is a better example, since he hit in plain sight working on Fermat's Last Theorem.

"He dedicated all of his research time to this problem for over six years in near-total secrecy, covering up his efforts by releasing prior work in small segments as separate papers and confiding only in his wife."

Yes, until people realize you can't make everything with plastic and that you need metals, maybe 3D printing with go somewhere.

Not to forget than certain steel parts might not even be accessible to mere mortals, either because certain steel require certain things.

I'm not against fixing your dishwasher with some plastic part, but that's far from a revolution.

And it's not like industry won't fight it either.

It might actually be less effort to follow his method. You may need to create a new namespace or create a new function, but then you don't need to put out breaking change notices, handle user issues due to breaking changes, etc.

It's not about better support for your 1992 website, it's about it still being accessible at all. Perhaps you've never had to deal with a file in a legacy format (ahem, Word) that had value to you, but was unrecognized in newer versions of software, but I can assure you that it's thoroughly frustrating.

> Also even though I'm a fulltime Clojure dev, I would take Elms semantic versioning that is guaranteed through static type analysis anytime over spec's "we probably grew it in a consistent way" handwaving.﻿

An Elm function `foo :: int -> int` that used to increment and now acts as the identity function is merely statically-typed "we probably grew it in a consistent way" hand-waving, which may be worse than the alternative given the amount of trust people put into types.
i live alone, in a house in vancouver suburb for 8 years (bought when 22).
i really didnt want a house, was interested in a condo... but parents instilled value of land (they happen to be realtors/housing developers).

i carried a 550k mortgage at 22, earning about ~60k annually.
i have renters in bsmt, so definitely helped.

sure i have a nice house, but i definately wasnt living a life of luxury outside... i envied my friends who lived at home with parents, whose only financial burden was if they had enough money to party on the weekend.
or they spent money on cars, lifestyle etc.

definately now that i am older, a bit more sensible, little worries... am so glad i went through this early on in life.

first of all i am laughing at a bunch of my new neighbours buying a smaller version of my house for only $900,000.00 more than i paid in this recent vancouver real estate market.

second of all, i sure as hell couldnt afford a house here even though i make significantly more here than previously.

for the people that lived at home, to save for a future you might have a chance at home ownership in this market.

if you blew it on cars, extravagant expenses/trips/lifestyle than better hope your family has money to bankroll a house.

i am selling my house for about 140% markup of what i paid even though market definately not as hot with time of year + recent restrictions.
It's just too early. I think we will see a 3D printing revolution but you need to be able to do useful stuff with the printers.

A good use case would be anything that's usually mass produced but actually benefits from high customization. Like clothes. If you could 3D print clothes, you might have a market. Or cables (electrical, Ethernet, etc.) that are an exact length. Or perhaps things like toothbrushes, or contact lenses.

The technology isn't very close to that yet. But if it keeps improving, there's a good chance that we really will end up with a 3D printer in every home.
Really glad to see this. I've hated Prop. 13 ever since I moved to California in 1986.

As I've argued a few times on HN [0] [1], the way it should have been done would have been simply to defer the excess tax until the property was sold, not to simply return it to the homeowner.

All arguments _for_ Prop 13 are about people who live in their homes whose value appreciate abruptly. Prop 13 needs to be revised to narrowly target this group and only this group.
Like most Chinese diaspora communities, ethnic Chinese in Malaysia mostly emigrated from southeast China. Many Chinese dishes in Malaysia are quite similar to dishes in the those regions.

Look at Hainanese chicken rice. It was invented by Hainanese immigrants in Singapore, and the only place you'd ever find it in Beijing would be at a Singaporean restaurant. But it's basically an unmistakable evolution of a classic dish from Hainan province. A lot of Chinese cuisine in SE Asia is like that.

Regarding chop suey, in San Francisco Chinatown there's a Chinese restaurant, New Lun Ting, popular with older Chinese-Americans that sells a version of chop suey that is arguably an authentic Chinese-American dish. Some other restaurants in Chinatown also sell chop suey or something like that, but it was always easy to dismiss as something sold to attract tourists--originally in earnest to meet their tastes, now more as an ironic thing. But now I'm fairly confident it has deeper Chinese roots, and is less adulterated, than is commonly assumed.

The longer I live in San Francisco, and the more I eat in Asia (Mongolia, South Korea, Taipei, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and all over Malaysia and Singapore), the more I realize how nuanced, complex, and interrelated the origins and evolution of Asian food can be. And the more I understand my own subtle prejudice--white Americans, at least the more cosmopolitan ones, instinctively understand that nuance and complexity when it comes to European cuisine.

And like with European fare, not all Asian fare is bold and exotic. It's easy to dismiss chop suey as something invented for the palates of Americans because it seems so plain and cheap; and because it seems so undesirable compared to common "authentic" Chinese dishes. But that's a subtle form of bias. There are plenty of boring American dishes, for example, that are completely unlike hamburgers, hot dogs, or BBQ and that foreigner would think couldn't possibly be "authentic" American.

Since it depends on the value transferred, you could say the opposite as well, that Bitcoin costs far more.
For anyone who stops half way thinking this is some comeback of the marketing of makerbot, keep reading. Overall it's a fair summary of what happened in the world of makerbot.

As someone who was listening when makerbot was just starting up, I think that Makerbot as a company both did 3D printing a great service and a great disservice. Without makerbot it's entirely possible that without makerbot making as big of a splash as they did and without the press that they were able to create 3d printing wouldn't have taken off like it did. Unfortunately the disservices that they then did to the 3d printing community had so much more of an impact because of all that press that was primarily focused on them and equating '3d printer' to mean 'makerbot'.

All that said, I'll never give up my 3D printers. For me it was still a revolution, I think I just had a lower bar for what it needed to be to be a revolution.
The problem with 3D Printer is, it is no match to the existing manufacturing technologies. Imagine, the sub micron accuracy of iPhone, which in no way achievable with current 3D printing technology. The technology in to which 3D printer can really revolutionize the world right now is Electric Motor. ( Here I have said it, please don't patent it. :P ) I am actually doing it. If interested, drop me a mail. :)
Of course you can. You can tax it at the exchange, when it becomes something controlled by the US gov't. And you can tax companies selling products or services for BTC.

Sorry for beeing picky on this. Ive worked a while with coffee machines while getting my IT edu.

A 70$ nespresso machine is a mess. Realistically you would replace that yearly because it gets to a health hazard soon. (Mold and crisp plastic) a good one with basic standards will cost you more like $250.

A ok fullautomate can be bought from like $500.

About the recylcling ether you make art out of them or that really does not mean that much. Painted plastic coated aluminium does not really recycle very well.

When people brought in nespresso machines (of all price ranges except the >$500 ones from proper brands) we would show them the internals and scratch a little mold from here and there. It was seriously the most easy way to sell them a proper machine.
Feels like an old school Friday night news drop. Man, Zenefits has had it rough in the press recently.

I think Sacks has done an extraordinarily good job as CEO. Hard to put oneself in the CEOs shoes here, but this guy had to make multiple huge decisions and changes to Zenefits over the past year. Sacks' consistency of right calls and handling things deftly under a ton of pressure, I can't remember the last time a CEO had to run such a gauntlet, maybe Iceman back in 1986. The guy deserves more credit than he has gotten. Though it's not surprising the press missed this part of a story as they tend to do when they smell unicorn blood in the water.

I also don't think it's too surprising he is stepping down. How long can someone work on cleaning up someone else's mess? While under-compensated for it. And while putting better more interesting potential opportunities on hold.

IIRC one of the issues in the case was that the coffee was being served as if it was immediately consumable despite the fact that it was in a state that made it impossible to consume without injury.

It's as if I served you a plate of lutefisk after the "soaking in lye" stage but before the "soak in water to get rid of the lye" stage.

Edit: oh, and that serving it that way was corporate policy and that there had been hundreds of prior problems, some also involving injuries. I suspect the "corporate policy" part was a big factor in the punitive damages portion of the case which was based on 2 days of coffee sales.

It's been suggested, but there's no way to automatically do it correctly. The whois info might be anonymized, in which case a change means nothing at all. It might just be someone's name and address, with no way of verifying who that someone works for. Also meaningless. Better just to default to something safe, and spend your manpower on something more important.
If you don't quite remember, or are unsure about, their preferred pronoun, it doesn't matter. Really, don't sweat it.

What we're trying to tell you here isn't "you should concentrate harder, learn it by rote, and never ever say it wrong". Rather: "just give it as much thought as you'd give someone telling you to call them Dave." No more, because nobody wants to make your life any harder, and any sane person would understand it if you forget. This is a preference, not an imposition.

And also no less, because at the end of the day it's a very little thing for you, and might mean a lot to them.

Grammar and plurals become weird? - You've already given it more thought than I think I'd have :) In my case, because I'm not a native speaker, I would have probably messed the grammar anyway.

Hot Coffee lawsuits constantly come up in the US court system at temperatures that were as hot or hotter than the coffee in the Liebeck case, and they almost always gets thrown out as frivolous (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebeck_v._McDonald%27s_Restau... ). The liebeck case was more of an exception than the rule.

Also, 180 degrees is considered standard serving temperature for coffee according to the Specialty Coffee Association of America. Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, and a host of companies serve at this temperature as well. While some might complain this is still too hot, I would not say that mcdonald's serves it's coffee UNUSUALLY hot.
I don't agree with that. If I was an old person, and I bought a house at 30K, and its paid off after years of hard work. It would freaking suck if my tax bill is suddenly more than what I can afford to pay, forcing me to move.

That's not fair.

I am young so I do not benefit from Prop 13, but I can see why its an undue burden on people who just want to live their life.

Someone suggested pegging it off of income, or other assets, and I think that's fair.

Maybe it's even more fair to peg the local government budget based on what could be collected from the surrounding homeowners. If the government can't afford to keep the neighborhood super nice, then perhaps the home value would remain low, thus self-justifying the low tax.
That doesn't seem likely to apply.
Nope.

They are meant as prototyping tools, and some do quite well beyond that.

The trouble is, we can't 3D print PCBs .. not safely anyway. There are quite a few more toxic chemicals to deal with, not to mention the complexities you'd run into trying to make multi-layer boards.

Also I think people forgot plastic still cost money.
I wonder how Segment, Fivetran, Stitch and all the other ETL vendors feel about this. I have a feeling that the ecosystem will flock towards Glue and leave everybody else in the dust...
