Why is it bad to create stress for drivers?? Is that a serious question?

Anyway, I listened to that podcast myself a while back. The conclusion was that boycotts rarely work, and when they do, it's mostly a bar PR issue rather than an economic per-sale issue.

@Shane, is the course emailed in one hit, or in batches. If so that is an interesting way to do it (phased roll-out of course by email) in itself.
Why would they donate money for corporate sponsorship ranks if they're already donating so much code? Honest question. I thought they were the second largest contributor to the kernel code base after Intel.
Turing off GPS would not have to be binary. There is a seperate, encrypted, GPS frequency that the US government can continue using even in places that they shut down GPS for everyone else. Additionally, they can degrade the accuracy of civilian GPS (also in a targeted area if they wanted).
I agree the scholarly article's title is better.

Your comment did mention another point which appeared to discredit the article/research:

What do they gain by killing it?
They tried, on a smaller scale, with dropping the Linux NPAPI plugin.

Unfortunately, they were unable to manage even that, and ended up resuming updates to it after several years, since so many security vulns kept popping up in it.

The major browsers are trying to leverage their forced-upgrade strategems to increasingly isolate Flash content (click-to-play, locking it in increasingly-harsh sandboxes and throwing away the keys...), because the problem was never convincing _Adobe_ to kill Flash.

It was, is, and will remain convincing users who have run sites with it forever to migrate off.

There are enterprise device web interfaces written in Java applets or Flash (or, on rare occasion, both), that are past EOL but still in use in a great number of locations. There are many "applications" that are just embedded web browsers doing the above dance.

Flash has been around 20 years - it'll probably take at least another 10 after Adobe absolutely stops any updates (which, I think, would take either a transparent migration tool or a bankruptcy), if not more, before seeing Flash becomes an abnormality.
Sounds like a simple and reasonable approach. Thanks!
Or perhaps we should drastically reduce government's role in education altogether. After all, we were doing fine before the Department of Education opened in the seventies!

It's sent out one lesson per day for 7 days. I used to do all in one day, but the course completion rate was significantly lower. I think people were getting overwhelmed.
The homeless problem is more visible in Seattle because we have rather little indoor services for them and the services we do have also come with a lot of rules that people are unwilling or unable to follow to get a bed. Combine that with the grudging acceptance of "well, people are just going to sleep under overpasses and park RVs everywhere," and you wind up with more people sleeping outside compared to other parts of the country.

On the one hand, people need services and I want to help them.

On the other, it would be nice to be able to go to various parks' trailheads without walking through someone's "living room."
Lot of the criticism of the CGI characters is due to the knowledge that they were CGI. People that know Peter Cushing was dead and have seen Star Wars with Carrie Fisher 40 years ago are going to be biased. That bias limits suspension of disbelief.

People that have no idea Peter Cushing died or who Princess Leia is aren't going to complain about the spot-on CGI.
Strain it through some cheese cloth, and it would probably be fine, especially with some cinnamon, grapefruit peel, or chicory.
Subsidies come from ordinary taxpayers and VC funding comes from a bunch of rich guys, so they definitely should be treated differently.

That is also a reference to the title of the "news" article on gizmodo.com. Sorry that this wasn't clear.

In particular, I was imagining that gizmodo A/B tested "Most of Greenland Melted about a Million Years Ago" vs "Most of Greenland Melted in the Recent Past".

The latter (to a non-geologist) is quite a bit more sensational.

Um, DOGMA usually does not hold up, period. Your straw-man argument there is
nothing more than: "you think MY dogma is stupid? Let me tell you how stupid
the opposing dogma is!" and expecting people to think that because other dogma
is bad that your dogma is good.

Now, if I was actually arguing or believed some anti-market dogma, it wouldn't
be a straw-man here. But I fully agree that markets are valuable, are easy to
over-regulate, and that there are many aspects of market freedom that are
positive. I'm just not dogmatic about it. Dogma is what leads people to insist
that things are a certain way because their dogmatic model says so rather than
base their beliefs on evidence, etc.

But anyway, communist and socialist dogma may be wrong because they are
dogmatic, but here's one thing I know for certain: your description of their
dogma is completely wrong. Dogmatic communists and socialists don't believe
what you just wrote in describing them.
Because DRM, HLS, HW acceleration, H.264+MP3 (which is funny cause HTML5 can play H.264 and MP3 separately, but not them together in any container), that's what I can think of.

Note that "kill" is just a less ugly way of saying "stop providing security updates for." It's not a SAAS, they can't just snap their fingers, shut down the servers, and have flash actually go away. Even if Adobe actively tried to murder Flash Player, people would still end up pirating copies of the installer from shady sites for their legacy needs.
I use Borax and find it helpful. My water supply doesn't have chlorine in it. The boron reduces problems with mildew. It also allegedly softens the water, but I use baking soda as my primary water softener.

I also have successfully used Borax solution in cleaning of porous surfaces to eradicate mildew problems in areas that bleach doesn't work to eliminate long term.

Heh, right now it's 10F and my hands are bloody and busted open from getting extremely dry and chapped after a few hours in the cold. Lotion would absolutely help right now...if I happened to own any! Alas, I am a tech nerd!

Likewise, this time of year I'm reminded by nature to buy a bottle of really good quality moisturizing shampoo. My experience has also suggested any conditioner you can buy at Walmart is a scam, but for certain heads and certain climates, spending more on the good stuff makes the difference between your hair being anemic or healthy. I switch to nice shampoo every winter and year after year the difference is night and day within a week or two.

Fabric softener on the other hand...what a waste!
It's more like she asks him to leave, because he's more dedicated to his work than he is to his relationship. Or to paraphrase the Late Great Dicky Fox: "If the heart is empty, the head doesn't matter."

I dunno, I loved the movie. I avoided it for years because I expected a cheesy comedy chick-flick romance (and it is), but instead I found a great representation of the bootstrapped "escape from cubicle nation" story that hits harder the older I get. From the idealistic naivety to the fumbling along, being scrappy & taking unconventional directions to keep things afloat. I've watched it at least as many times now as I've seen The Social Network.
> Say you have $0 income.

It is assumed that someone without a job will still get some money in the form of unemployment benefits, so their buying power won't be $0. Therefore, your premise is wrong.
The model selected maybe problematic.
A) There are additional benefits for helping to pay rent which are income dependent.
B) There are special circumstantial increases to benefits replaced by basic income, that state has to pay inorder to fill its constitutional equality requirements. For instance increases in unemployment for dependent children, expenditures for education program participation for unemployed...
Now testsubjects get them by applying for them. Whats potential problem is what it takes to LOOSE them, its a risk factor on every action to earn temporarily, or taking a risky move to try to start a business. Latter causes also a high risk at the end of experiment, unless you have folded it long before end of experiment.

I think it's standing in the industry scratches the enterprise itch, so it's popular amongst professionals and corporates. You can't get fired for picking Angular, in other words.

As to how it came to be in that standing, it was and likely still is a very powerful platform.
>Teslas, more so than any previous car, blur the line between outright ownership and a automobiles-(and associated infrastructure)-as-a-Service

Not that i think you're wrong, but i'm not sure how you draw that conclusion from this announcement. "you can't park your car forever at our charging stations" hardy implies you don't really own the car.
Good idea, but submissions require forking the project, editing their directory file, and submitting a pull request. All this does is maintain a list. I just submitted "algebra3.h", vector functions for 2, 3, and 4 element vectors, all as inline C++. I've had that on a web site of mine since the 1990s.
The common approach in Silicon Valley is that everybody starts as a programmer. At some point, the career ladder bifurcates. Those who prefer to work with people issues become people managers, getting trained in related skills. (They often also work as tech leads, which is an in-between role, and for which smart companies also provide training.) Those who prefer technical issues keep rising up a technical ladder.

I think that's much more sensible than taking somebody who doesn't know much of anything, putting them in an MBA program, and then expecting them to have universal management mojo. So we're not talking about somebody who has managed across multiple industries. We're talking about somebody who, often, has managed across none.

I really don't believe managers from other industries can, on average, manage software teams. I thin software is too different from other kinds of labor. So many behaviors that are arguably reasonable in other industries are clearly catastrophic in software.

I believe that to be true. However, I think the reason why we are trying this form of gateway communism now is because labor is becoming less valuable and owning the means of production is becoming more valuable due to automation. At least that's the theory. Because of this the resulting increase in minimum salary for any service to be provided by humans should be less impactful as it would have been in the past. If this wasn't the case we wouldn't need UBI. I think UBI is becoming important because there is an increasing number of people whose participation in the workforce is not needed anymore.
Sure. Sorry for length of this then...

In my head at least, I'm not accusing this guy specifically of being a paid commenter or operative or agent. I have no evidence of that. I feel like its actually irrelevant whether he's paid or genuine.

I'm saying that the content of his comments, the tone of the answers and the rhetorical techniques are basically the same as those seen in hundreds of threads about China where genuine discussion gets derailed by pro-CCP commenters. IMO, genuine discussion about China is difficult/impossible unless there's a recognition and backlash against the poor quality of pro-CCP comments. Eg:

He brings up the USA immediately and repeatedly on a post about China (whataboutism). The underlying message is consistently 'the USA is worse. The USA is the same. If the USA does it, why are you attacking China instead of looking after your own problems?'

He immediately claims the original article is blatant propaganda rather than discussing it earnestly. Similarly, he claims everyone else is living in a media bubble and their sources are not trustworthy (Economist, NYT, 'western media'). He doesn't really mention any news sources of his own that might indicate his own 'media bubble'.

He writes fairly frequent outright lies ("[China] are in and have not been in wars, are leaders of the UN peacekeeping forces, and do not militarily interfere in other countries' affairs") which can be fairly easily destroyed if you can use Google.

To my eyes, a thread about China has pretty quickly become a quagmire of multiple complex and subjective situations related to China, where mud and suspicion is being thrown on everyone, and any opinion anyone projects that might be anti-China is cast as subjective, biased, unresearched etc.

Generally speaking, anywhere you go on the internet where people discuss China-related issues publicly end up like this. Same goes for a lot of Russia related issues discussed in English. I'm sure if you are reading the Arabic internet and bump into issues that the US paid-commenting/auto-commenting systems are interested in, it's the same thing. It's a specific goal of government-sponsored commenting campaigns that you don't try to win arguments; you just muddy the waters, make everyone sound unreliable, destroy reasonable debate.

It's a sticky situation. To my mind, the comments that user posted were immediate red flags. I don't think a single one of his comments added to the substantive debate about the original article. Mine didn't either; it was a stupid response to the poor quality of his comments. Oh well...

"I think people were getting overwhelmed."

Good point.
Yeah, I don't know much about Amazon's internals. I'm pointing more at the way analysts have been saying for 15 years that Bezos isn't focused enough on quarterly profits, isn't returning enough to the shareholders, invests too much in long-term pipe dreams. But Kindle, AWS, and Prime have turned out to be giant competitive advantages.

The article suggests that the use of these products will extend the life of your clothes. This is a remarkable claim and it is striking they provide absolutely no evidence for it.
> Shampoo is a scam. Conditioner is a scam.

That's why I don't use those either (in shower). Usually I wash with water only, sometimes with some bar soap.

For killing bacteries in my armpits (which causes the bad smell of sweat, thus "deodorant") I use coconut oil. Works superbly, but makes stains in shirts as a downside.
Owners have been complaining about it for a long time, especially at certain superchargers. Tesla is well aware (from their stats) where this problem exists.
A good move - especially as the supply of superchargers begins to struggle to keep up with demand from all the new Model S & Model 3 owners over the next few years.

(Yes, they've announced that supercharging will incur a fee for certain Model 3 owners who reserved after a certain time - but still.)
I'm in this demographic. When I was a teenager and living with my parents, we used liquid fabric softener, but when I went to college and had to deal with a shared laundromat, I pared down my laundry products to make it more convenient: a medium-sized bottle of liquid detergent, and a box of dryer sheets impregnated with fabric softeners.

Now that I'm living on my own, I switched to a giant box of powdered detergent, which I prefer, but would have been more inconvenient to handle in college. I still use the same kind and brand of dryer sheets, and I'm not convinced I'm missing anything.
It's for ALL Model 3 buyers. You have to have configured your car to beat the deadline.
RDS is performant well above 100 GB. Not to say citus isn't a good product, but to imply sharing is required anywhere near the 100 GB threshold is a bit disengenous.

Because cleanliness varies. If you make cars public, people will trash them like they do all public transportation, mostly through disinterest. The investment into your own car is a reflection of yourself and something you can take pride in.
Android can be run on vanilla kernel with few patches: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/general/android... .

thanks for taking my question seriously. seems like the only really good answer.

but of course, "enterprisey" has never really been a good litmus for "correct" or "sane" or "efficient". it's not a coincidence the Java ecosystem became the brunt of so many jokes. i can't help but wonder how seriously it would have been taken if it weren't a Google project.
Damnit. I was hoping to cut this off before it continued, but apparently the whiners about this got up-voted to being the highest answers here. The person asking what happened didn't need to know any of this, they just needed to know that there was some inconsequential brouhaha they could ignore.

Apparently the cliche is right: a large portion of programmers are sorta
insular and socially awkward white guys who embrace the concept of "nerd" as a
positive and so are a bit defensive and feel threatened about other views and
groups and people invading their social space. They may have legitimate
concerns here or in similar cases, but the level of energy about it is so
clearly defensive and of a magnitude that's wholly unwarrented.
The concern is about an epistemic gap: We proabaly can’t know how to identify speech that is harmful to free-speech, and the cost of getting it wrong is likely to be tremendous in almost all cases.

This is a nice-sounding programming mantra but it doesn't make much sense in the real world, in my opinion. Learning the "philosophy" of Redux is a natural by-product of learning how to actually use Redux.

To me this is the equivalent of saying "learn molecular chemistry, don't follow recipes" to someone who's trying to learn how to cook. It may be true that the most experienced chefs have a deep understanding of chemistry, but it's much more practical to start from the surface and dig deeper, compared to overwhelming newcomers with "principles" and "philosophies" right off the bat.
The supercharger station is operated by Tesla. Unlike at a fuel pump, you don't need to authenticate or submit payment; you can just plug it in, and the car knows who you are. If you overstay after your car is full, your car will inform HQ, and they will bill you to your name.

You still own the car, of course. It's just a fascinating convergence of perma-OnStar, of over-the-air firmware and software updates, and it's quite different from the days when your relationship with the automaker effectively (or could have) ended when you drove off the dealer's lot.
Six Sigma and Product Management
Are you working in an aeronautical engineering area? From my limited knowledge of practices at Boeing and Airbus industries, your post suggests are lack of compliant design and documentation in terms of the many international standards for avionics and related equipment.

My experience is in fields of instrumentation and control for electrical power generation and transmission, and steelworks automation. The projects I have worked on use IEEE SWEBOK and OMG SYSML as a minimum. The management have traditional engineering background (mechanical, electrical, civil and chemical) so design documentation is extensive and then updated to "as built" status when commissioned. Generally we create models and perform extensive validation and scenario testing before committing to production code.
There's also https://github.com/lightspark/lightspark which seems to still get some work done, but I haven't seen huge changes in a while.

I work appsec for a company that provides a (primarily) flash-based web platform - Apache Flex, specifically. What people don't realize is the extreme cost of porting things like this to HTML5. We have nearly 1M lines of ActionScript. The browser makers and Adobe are aware of deployments like us, and that's why they can't just pull the plug. We don't need a few months to fix this problem, we need years.

I don't see why this relates to ownership. Tesla owners own their cars outright. Tesla owners up until now have free access to the Supercharger network for long-distance travel. "Paying" at a Supercharger is very convenient. How does that affect car ownership?
Because it solves real world business problems. Some people need to build large systems in a SPA framework and Angular is good at this.

Not everyone is building a cheap hackathon twitter clone in their spare time.

For some of us the JS framework is solving business problems, not hobby JS side projects using the latest hip JS frameworks.
I wasn't being defensive - he WAS treating others unfairly too ... you think they would have sprung on me if he had not been an ass to them and they hadn't felt threatened ?
