> Well, it depends what you consider to be "the best".

There are clearly traits that are best, bar exceptionally rare scenario e.g. regenerating a lost limb, improved hearing, or improved longevity. So while I understand your analogy will fit some option, it is limiting too assume there will always be a trade off.
Artificial Intelligence is so famous, but Why
If anything I think RISC-V is repeating the same mistakes as MIPS and the original RISCs, by being far too simple and requiring much greater fetch bandwidth in the process.

The performance of MIPS, which it is closest to, has never really been considered anything more than "acceptable". It loses to ARM (which isn't so RISC-y anyway) and x86, so I expect RISC-V to be about the same:

I'll stick my neck out and tell you I'm a quasi-neoreactionary, which more or less is to the alt-right what a Marxist is to communism. FWIW I'm not a white supremacist (or nationalist) and many NRX and alt-righters are Jews (including the inventor of neoreaction).

Actually read some of the material and see if 'it checks out' that we're all nazis. Scott Alexander has a essay called 'Reactionary Philosophy in a Planet sized nutshell' which is a good synopsis.

Scott is definitely not a reactionary of any kind, so this is a neutral take.

Otherwise we can just call each other names and strawman each other all day.

Please don't come out with "I don't need no... or somebody on the internet said...". That is just lazy. I don't imagine all socialists subscribe to SJWism, since a lot of them are vehemently against it. Same goes here.
You are reaching for some quite indirect logic here. As someone regularly frequenting 4chan I can assure you that the sole target of the cuck insult is the male's pride.

Of course it being a sexul insult it is practically unavoidable that values and the female partner are indirectly involved in how the insult works.
Well, technically homosexual couples can also cuck each other, and I have seen the term occasionally used in discussion about homosexual manga. So it really is not about the female.

Hell, even the fairly juvenile "ur mom" is more negative towards females than "cuck".

When women are attacked you will notice. Slut and whale are still the go-to insults.

So please do not shoehorn gender issues into everything. Sure, some assumptions are encoded into it. But it's a goddamn insult, not some friendly disagreement in a debate club. Please adjust your context sensitivity.

Take this, and remove all references to "workers" and "proletariat", and it sounds like it could be a very workable system, more stable than direct democracy, but with a much faster feedback loop than any modern representative democracy (since any council can recall its delegate to the higher-level council at any point).

Few years back I remember reading a story about the guy who lost his finger in an accident and then regrew it by dipping it into some kind of a powder.

Edit: found it!

>The magical formula to regrow a finger apparently includes a doctor, a pig, and some “pixie dust.” This is no fairytale, though; this is a medical breakthrough being explored at the University of Pittsburgh, Pa. In Science Channel’s video, “How to Grow a New Fingertip,” Dr. Stephen Badylak from the university explains regenerative medicine has the potential to grow a whole human body.

> Interesting idea, but does the risk of cancer have that much selective pressure? It tends to be the "last thing that kills you", after you live long enough to survive everything else.

You're assuming that's the default state, rather than the result of millions of years of cancer-preventing trade-offs. If e.g. being able to regenerate lost limbs gives you a 10% chance of dying of out-of-control cancer before reaching breeding age, that trait is going to be selected out fairly rapidly.
I'm curious about how the $15k/mo figure is computed.

The story reads as though Logojoy more or less launched on Producthunt, which was 7 days ago. And all posts on the blog are dated Nov 15th. Finally the domain itself seems to have been listed on HugeDomains as of Oct 8th [1].

Now maybe I'm missing something, but it seems like the revenue figure is extrapolated from a small window which includes a wave of initial traffic from PH.

I'm hoping that the revenue figure is an actual ongoing sustained amount for Dawson's sake (as it is great looking & functioning product, solves a need that I've faced, and for full disclosure I've been putting together something along these lines on the backburner for awhile), but I can't help but feel this is a bit sensationalized based on what I'm seeing here.

I am kind of doubtful about this Qi business. I followed the amazon link you gave and it made it even more doubtful.

Nevertheless, I gave you an upvote, because I had no idea fingertips could ever regrow; that's really cool!

I've seen a lot of contracts try to do exactly that—IP ownership is the company's regardless of outstanding bills. I refuse to sign those clauses, of course.

I don't think recommendations (from web elements or from friends) are ever a simple cause/effect relationship for me. I think it works like this:

I treat recommendations like tally marks, once a show gets enough high quality tallies, I check it out. Maybe if I have conflicting information, I try to research more.

If it's a novel recommendation engine, I might discount the value of its recommendations a lot, until it's proven to be really good.

Same thing for friends. Those who share my taste or at least know my tastes really well, I calibrate up, based on the source.

Regardless of the quality of the source, I usually need a few independent sources before I check something out.

So a "similar to" from a good recommendation engine might tip the scales, or cause me to ask around, probably won't make me buy on its own. And if it's giving untrustworthy results, it gets discounted pretty fast.
That's a good point - so even my own website is not as free as standing on the street corner and shouting. But if my hosting company did kick me out it might be (haven't checked) a breach of contract; and in any case I could be on a new host in a couple of hours.

The USA is a democracy under the 21st century dictionary definition of the word "democracy", which includes representative democracies like USA.

It is also a republic.

To be very specific, it is a constitutional federal democratic representative republic.

Now, back when the Declaration of Independence was written, your statement was true - for the simple reason that the word "democracy" was very exotic then, as was the form of government itself. The people who used it then, used it more in a sense of Aristotelian dichotomy between demokratia and politeia (the latter word was later somewhat incorrectly translated to Latin as "res publica"), and generally implying direct democracy.

Since then, numerous new democratic states appeared, with various differences in their specific arrangements - and so there was a need for a word that would describe the things that are common to all of them, and distinguish them from states with other forms of government. "Democracy" happened to be the one that was already in use, but also rare enough that its evolution wouldn't be bothersome, and its etymology made it the perfect candidate; and so, here we are.

So, what you were really trying to say - assuming that you meant the original 18th century meanings of the words - translates to modern English as, "USA is a representative democracy, not a direct democracy".

Well, duh.

> There's also plenty of examples of bugs and vulnerabilities in software with OpenBSD even fixing bugs regularly.

As the OpenBSD devs will tell you, there have only been two known vulnerabilities in default OpenBSD installs in the history of OpenBSD. This strongly suggests that having decent software quality is an effective way to prevent vulnerabilities from existing in the first place.

> The refrain of OpenBSD supporters is, "It's not necessary and won't help..."

No, the refrain is "it's better to spend effort curing the disease than treating the symptoms". If we put half the effort we put into palliative defense measures into formal verification or doing things right the first time, I suspect it would be drastically more effective.
Spencer was being deliberately provocative. He knows the media will only play a handful of sound bites to spin their tales, so he gave it to them on a platter to achieve maximum coverage. And it worked. He is now the Great Satan, which apparently means lots of long interviews with major television and radio stations.

For clarity, that quote is referring to journalists and the media. Not Jews, as some have been heavily implying.

I'd like to remind people here that this is exactly Trump's playbook. You infuriate people, they are eager to take you out of context or extrapolate wildly, then curious passersby figure your accusers are not credible.

> There is a lot of worthless hate speech in the world. Nothing is learned from it except that the speaker is ignorant

> You're not restricting thoughts or ideas you are simply not agreeing to promote it.

> Reddit stopped claiming to be about free speech years ago.

>register an email account to some unknown email provider with unintelligible username

that actually puts you on the radar, because hardly anyone uses "unintelligible" usernames on unknown email providers. what you really want is legit looking emails (first name + last name + number) on popular provider sites. why draw attention to yourself (albeit anonymously) when you can blend into everyone else?
I didn't see him claiming that spec is better than all type systems. Obviously, Haskell has one of the better type systems. Languages like C# and Java are not near as expressive so when he says most type systems, I'd agree...spec offers more expressivity than the type systems in these languages while remaining as an opt-in choice.

(Adam from Realm) Realm is an ACID compliant object database. Compared to Couchbase it is much more performant and memory efficient. In terms of data sync, Realm works by transferring the compressed changes from the transaction log (so just the diffs and capturing the semantic intent of the action) and automatically resolving conflicts using operational transformation. This approaches leads to extremely low latency enabling realtime collaboration functionality. This is quite different than Couchbase which is sending the entire object, requiring the developer to manually resolve conflicts.
Teeth might also be a good area to look at in terms of figuring out how it works. Since most people already grow two full sets of teeth, and I believe there are numerous cases on record of people who have grown more than that, perhaps the regeneration genes are already partially activated in that region of the body.
From what I've understood from things I've read on the past, we do have pretty much full regenerative ability already. It is blocked by various things, such as the epidermis. If you chop off a finger, a blastula of stem cells will develop on the tip, at least until the skin grows over and stops it. If you could hold back the skin, then... well, you'd die of an infection in very short order. Waiting for regeneration is just not feasible in the natural world.

There's also the potential for cancer, of course, but personally I don't buy that objection. You can take cancerous cells and revert them to stem cells and they'll stop misbehaving (unless their genetic damage is very specifically triggering them to grow without bound, but I think this is rare. Usually it's a gene activation problem.)

And complexity of the regenerated part isn't much of a problem. You can reroute the nerves on a salamander to get a fully functioning arm poking out of its back. Some things can regenerate half their hearts fast enough to survive. I don't know exactly how the information is transmitted and expressed, but it's there.

No, I can't prove my assertions. They are based on half-remembered readings of the book The Body Electric from long ago, written by a guy who did experiments to back this craziness up. He was enough of a nutcase that not many people followed after, though his key findings were replicated. And he lost the thread at some point, going on a crusade against emf fields that didn't seem to be based on real science. So it goes.

Key point given the current climate, if the Trump presidency adds a restrictive robots.txt to all .gov domains they will prevent the Internet Archive Wayback Machine from showing history on any of those domains.

Not only would this obliterate public access to the Obama, Bush, Clinton era government websites in the archive, it'd prevent the use of the Wayback Machine for keeping track of Trump's shifting agendas, as demonstrated on his web domain recently.
