It has all the morbid fascination of watching someone intentionally light themselves on fire, but without the guilt and horror of the certain death.

Hey there, I was involved in making these maps.

You're absolutely correct. We used point data from BTS (http://www.rita.dot.gov/bts/sites/rita.dot.gov.bts/files/pub...), and did not filter out non-train station types.

We're fixing this now.
And that's fine. I'd be curious as to why though
From the article:

We can also put to rest suggestions like Lemmium, Octarine and Trumpium.

:)
My personal recommendations:

1 - use your corporate template

2 - stay away from fancy transitioning between slides

3 - watch font size, avoid small font unless printed, and even then...

4 - augment what is seen on slide with what you say, do not read verbatim, or if you do read, read then expound.

5 - control viewing with bullet point transition, revealing one bullet point at a time.

6 - fewer slides are better unless your internal corporate is accustomed to 100 page decks (I've actually seen this)

7 - Images are great, but avoid juvenile images.

The other thing is that Powerpoint creation is an actual career in and off itself. A friend of mine in marketing said that some executives offload PPT creation to freelancers and that is ALL that the freelancer does to feed and house themselves. Creating a good presentation is an art in and off itself.
As a heavy grpc user, I don't think ALB supports it due to a lack of trailer support. You're probably going to just use a TCP load balancer if you want grpc services behind a load balancer.
Fair enough -- I like your style :)

While this thread is still active, I would like to share more context around the project:

GEM is built as an auxiliary app to go along with mirage[0] and dejavu[1]. Together, the three can be used to model data, perform CRUD operations and compose queries.

I dunno why you're getting downvoted. Regulatory capture is a common and well understood phenomenon.
I never ever see popups. I do 90% of my browsing in emacs, using emacs-w3m in text mode, so don't see images (except when I manually choose to view them) and emacs-w3m does not support javascript. It works very well for the majority of websites out there.

For those sites that are broken without javascript, and which I absolutely must use, I use Firefox with the NoScript and Request Policy extensions (though I'm migrating to Pale Moon because Pentadactyl is going to break on newer versions of Firefox) and Privoxy for ad blocking. For the few sites that don't work with Firefox, I use Opera, again with Privoxy for ad blocking.

As a result, 99% of the time, the only ads I ever see are text-based, and only when embedded directly in the page I'm reading.

I personally like watch that is low maintenance, I don't want to worry about having it charged. As others mentioned you can use watch to wake you up. I also use my pebble to track my sleep.

Another thing that is often ignored is that if battery doesn't need to be frequently charged it will also last longer (battery life is measured in charging cycles).

Sadly this might be the reason why Pebble has issues, their watch is quite good, so when they released second version of Pebble Time, I decided not to buy it because I was still happy with mine that I got 1.5 years ago.
Or worse, kills all the competitors then dies anyway.

It's great that the EFF was able to help them out with this.

I don't know of any other organizations that would even be able to help out in a situation like this.

I don't mean to sound mean spirited, but I know I am about to.

Your post is an example of what frustrates me about Product Hunt (and, at times, HN) - people crowbaring in a reference to their startup/project/idea and throwing in a few links in a very transparent bid to get referral traffic from a popular message board service. On Product Hunt in particular it starts to sound like an echo chamber of people shouting startup names at each other. Worse, it seems like the Product Hunt is the goal rather than the tool - much like TechCrunch back in the day, everyone's success metric is attention from peers rather than customers.

As a licensed insurance agent and tech person working in insurance, this sort of law is common and is a big part of the ethics portion of the licensing exam. I honestly don't think it applies here, but I could see how it could be justified.
Question about your Mac app -- these blocker apps seem to be a dime-a-dozen, but I don't understand how people think they're effective. People have so many mobile devices now, just because I block my Macbook doesn't mean I can't waste time on my iPhone/iPad, or use another computer. In the end, it's pure will that is the best means to stop distraction, no app will solve the problem.

I know of three journalist outlets I'd be willing to pay for:

* LWN https://lwn.net/

* Harper's Magazine http://harpers.org/

* Nautilus http://nautil.us/

I'm not interested in paying for any current-news journalism because as far as I can tell nobody does a good enough job to warrant my money.

Seattle I'd say it's probably 1.5 times as much for a taxi. Based on last time I actually took one.

It's hard to say, Uber pricing has become so opaque. :/
It shouldn't be.
Other way round: guns are the distraction. You can't use them in any kind of regular politics. None of America's great moments of protest or social progress have been enabled by protestors with guns. Even mortally important ones like the civil rights movement. For obvious reasons: once you start shooting there's no easy way to stop until one side is dead.

You'll be allowed to keep them and feel good about it as a consolation prize. But when you're unemployed and lack health insurance, what good will that do you? Republicans will use gun ownership as the wedge issue while they loot the government.

The recipe for oganesson is pretty amazing. Shoot calcium at californium target for four months to make an atom of it. Repeat as necessary (but remember it has a half-life of under 1 millisecond).

They're all very heavy elements at the bottom of the periodic table and not found in nature. We made them in particle accelerators (they decay very quickly after creation), and have been calling by temporary names until we got around to naming them.

For example, element 118 was called "Ununoctium" and abbreviated "Uno". Now it has a real name, "Oganesson" (Og) after one of the discoverers.

We don't all have the time or the resources or the curiosity to connect all the raw data making up the news.

Sure the newspapers can have a bias or conflicts of interest but the journalism industry at least attempts to mitigate these, there is a code of ethics.

You can only do so much on your own, and through one on one interactions.

Some people find it valuable to have others do this for them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sure it's imperfect, because there is always bias, but t's a lot easier to read a newspaper story about an issue than to redo all the work the reporter would have done, on every conceivable issue.

You can even do your own fact checking after reading the paper.

I'm mostly talking about newspaper reporting, and from high caliber sources, but your local community paper can be a good source of info as well.

Plenty of companies would also use the non-AGPL software without any strings attached, and not contribute patches anyway. You may be lucky enough to get bug reports, though (and, in effect, become a free labor source for a corporation). So what's the point? Most of the time, this kind of position just comes across as a vague, empty posturing, to be quite honest. "I could definitely be a good friend to you, you see... if you cooperate and help out your new friend".

It sounds like a very obvious choice when you phrase it as "we wouldn't contribute patches to you", but that's just a way of holding out a carrot and hoping for people to bite, phrasing it as a "your loss" scenario. At least it is, to me. What am I losing, exactly? My code is right there. I haven't lost anything at all, except maybe some vague, hypothetical possibility of a little extra help -- which, in general, seems to rarely materialize in the way people imagine anyway, for a host of reasons (companies are slow, they're lazy, their hacks are incomplete and unsuitable for an upstream, they're anti-OSS contribution in general and only disallow using the GPL, but disallow contributing to anything, etc).

There is plenty of software that, very arguably IMO, should be available under non-GPL terms for a host of reasons, it's true (even the FSF agrees with this, to help support and promote e.g. interoperable, royalty-free codecs, algorithms, which benefit from public domain availability). And licensing is also a complicated legal, political and, at some level, personal topic as we pick licenses that we believe represent our goals and values. We should treat it that way.

But phrasing the scenario in such a manner, where there's a narrative that "The only thing the AGPL will do is ensure I write 0 patches (even though I would have likely written 0 patches in any case), so uhhh, think about that", feels like an attempt to poison the well, even if you didn't intend it to be. We could just as easily turn it around: if you literally aren't going to contribute patches, to return some of the benefit bequeathed to you by the virtue of using my code -- why should I even care a tiny bit about you or your company, or whether you "need" to use my software to achieve your own goals? Clearly, you don't need it so badly that you're willing to agree to the rules. Why bother? So you can just freeload on the people who do agree to the rules?

If this isn't your intent or I'm being overly presumptuous, I apologize. But even then, I still dislike the narrative that pops up around these arguments, even if I may be reading too much into your particular comment.
Boredom + science = fun.
I honestly can't think of the last time I've seen a gas station that only sells gas or diesel. At least around here, they just don't exist. The "gas station" is the convenience store around here. I doubt their patronage would drop off much if they stopped selling gas.

Gas stations around here sell anything from the usual cigaretter, pop & snacks to really good "home made" food. I can think of one that had a small, very good, Mexican restaurant in the back and another that made gyros, falafel, etc. to order. I would go out of my way to stop at those.

But gas only? I simply can't remember seeing one in the last 10 years. The closest is the ones that are service stations that happen to have a few gas pumps.
> but the Puget Sound's transportation is fantastic

Not really. It's not awful, but I'd not call it fantastic.
The impoverished are effectively trapped by the welfare system itself, because it reduces benefits as incomes rise at a faster rate than can be made up by the equivalent amount of work

This isn't true. The CBO extensivesly evaluates changes in benefits and taxes to calculate effectice marginal tax rates across the income distribution to make sure that you never make less money from working more. There are a couple of ranges where you will lose money from working more, but none of them are larger than 25c/hr.

I often get errors like THis.

This is the fault somewhere between the keyboard drivers in the OS's USB stack, or decoders of events in the UI.

The problem is that I typed the H before releasing the shift key. However, the shift key is in fact released before H is released. The timing diagram is something like this:

___
T __| |_______
____
H _____| |____
_____
Shift | |_______

The release of the Shift is a little late, so H gets it. The strict timing requirement to get this right completely non-conductive to fast typing.

For instance, if I repeatedly drum my three fingers in a natural way on the Shift, Z,X (using my ring finger, middle, and index), and do it fast, here is what I get:

ZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZXZX

Key events should be tied to the release not to the attack, and the decision whether or not Shift applies should be made intelligently somehow based on the percent overlap.

At the very least there should be some small (configurable?) holding period after the key down event before it is converted to an input character. Only after the holding period should it be decided whether the key is shifted, based on the current shift state at that time.

These are all real elements. They decay within tiny fractions of a second to other stuff, so they're hard to make and study.

Think of the nuclei as big, quivering blobs of jelly. They are too big to hold together and really want to split into other stuff. But studying them while they're still in one piece tests our understanding of a lot of basic physics, and lets us compare predictions to reality.
