Thanks for advice, I am using similar approach too. Because I also try to learn the positions too, so if you ask me what note is on sixth string/8th fret I have to know it's C and then if you ask me where are the other C notes, I need to know other string/fret pairs.

But the same could be achieved with voluntary certification. The only advantage with building codes is that they protect idiots from themselves.

Homeland Security Wants Social Media Info for Visa Waiver Travelers
I went to Eatsa a few weeks ago (after finding it listed on HappyCow, a vegetarian restaurant directory). I noticed at the time that Eatsa itself never used the word "vegetarian" in its marketing materials, and indeed, it doesn't seem to appear on their site (e.g. in https://www.eatsa.com/ or https://www.eatsa.com/story).

Elsewhere in the vegetarian world I've seen people refer to "plant-based food" as an alternative to calling things vegetarian, presumably to avoid potential negative reactions from some audiences.

Perhaps many non-vegetarian customers won't notice the absence of meat options in context when ordering from the Eatsa interactive menu, because they're being invited to choose from a set of presented options. (I know that situation has been studied quite a bit in psychology, but I forget the relevant key words.)

You can write your own providers for Terraform[0] and bake whatever you want into its HCL syntax. In your case, this might not have significant returns over bootstrapping with Ansible/Chef/Puppet -- it all depends on what you want to do.

Has there been a US president that drastically changed his hair, facial or otherwise, while in office? And did it stir up all manner of contraversy? Just curious?
Confirming - I'm using it that way right now. Sometimes if you're doing something funky you have to explicitly specify the name of the chromecast. ("Pause the kitchen speakers"). But for the most part, it just works.
I don't want "adults who are willing to take the risks" as my neighbors.
You're welcome ;)

Terraform is designed for something close to one-command execution. You're going to have to swap in variables (e.g. AWS access keys for a particular account, domain names, IP addresses, etc.), but Terraform is designed for that. I would advise looking into Terraform Modules[0], which encapsulate this kind of work nicely.

Interesting that he used a non-ascii character (Ø) as a variable name. Also ctrl+f in Chrome seems to think this character is the same as o.
What an annoying site on mobile. While reading, advertisements load and shift your view to some place in the article you've never seen before.

(No, I didn't finish reading it. I don't care anymore. Definitely not the "worst job in the world".)
Not quite resting. He's something of a militant vegetarian, so he bought a huge chunk of the North American quinoa production and then launched this thing.
Yeah. The question is why we ended up with two submissions rather than an upvote for one of the two as I thought normally happens. I'm just curious, I've never seen that before.

Like I say, still interesting. Also: I meant the PR agency who arranged for a glowing profile in the first place. See also Paul Graham's writing about that.
Obituaries get attention... I don't know how to test the hypothesis that more famous people died than average... we would have to have a defined quantity of famous people... or perhaps number of famous obituaries vs. population... I suspect the % of "famous" people goes up over time. Imagine all the reality TV stars...
Speaking of intellectual dishonesty, you're putting a whole lot of words in my mouth in the process of responding to only a single one of mine. You yourself have now made accusations about my thought process that are not in evidence.

The original comment showed no evidence of having arisen from information in the linked article. In acting to silence someone for asking whether the commenter had read the article, you legitimized their unfounded accusations, particularly that the article was "click-bate" [sic]. Don't pretend that your actions are somehow neutral.

If you think neutrality means making a platform to give spurious claims unfettered voice, then enjoy watching your website crumble into reddit in the new year. If you don't understand how your moderation is needlessly making yourself part of the problem, I have no idea how to convince you of it. We will soon be in a place where your well-meaning notion of civility will be entirely irrelevant.
Quinoa is low in protein but it is a complete protein. Handy for vegetarians.
Yes, in a similar way to saying 'I am a human being' is a description of me. :)

What I mean is that a brief, minimal description can be accurate but missing the joy, wonder and nuanced intimacy that comes from a deeper relationship.

For example, there is a wheel of awareness practice where you develop your ability to 'regulate energy and information flow'. You practice directing your consciousness to different points of awareness, one by one, and linking them together. Awareness of awareness itself is part of this practice too.

An exercise like this is when the definition above can come to life in your personal, subjective experience, and you get to observe how it looks and feels to you. You feel whether these ideas resonate with you, not just from assessing its logic, but from your felt experience. This is the spectacular part for me, the movement from abstract ideas to taking actions in the world that help improve my ability to thrive.

The emergent self-organizing part... think of a flock of birds in the sky and the shape it creates. No-one told the birds to make that specific shape. Likewise, no-one is telling me to speak these exact words to you. They have emerged from a combination of many processes coming together, culminating in an orchestra that somehow is coordinated well enough to let these ideas flow coherently from me to you. I can find this meaningful in many ways, some of them are: a sense of wonder, gratitude, trust, understanding how rigidity and chaos affects the shapes I make, looking at relationships and observing the emerging flow we make together and how it changes over time and what influences us.

This is my current understanding, but I am no expert. I can say that exploring a personal relationship with these ideas, developing my own hypotheses and observations and comparing them, and looking to observe these concepts in the world around me, has been deeply fulfilling.
Just food for thoughts: Software is like buildings. So, an analogy that I drew from this story is that in future it might be illegal to make your own software and let some others use it. I can imagine that you'd have to pass some sort of certification tests when rolling out your crypto code or operating system. Whether or not such tests can really work, is this the future that we really want? I have mixed feelings on this.
Hi, I'm one part of the Code Valley team. Happy to answer questions.

Any developer can vet suppliers before they automate an agent to contract them. For example, you could contract the agent you're looking to vet, hit 'build' and be returned a small program to carry out List.append a b. If the program works as you expect, you have then verified (in that instant of time) that the supplier is sound, and can proceed to building your own agent to contract it.
What first world municipality allows you to drive around children who are unrestrained?

No, children shouldn't be allowed to live in unsafe structures, I can't believe this is even a question.
Most lumber stamping is done by machine vision. If you've spent any time at a big box store that sells lumber you will realise how shitty lumber can be while still having that magical grade stamp. I've picked up 2x4s that break when you pick them up at one end but they still have a grade stamp and could be used in a structural wall because it bears the correct grade stamp.
Cheers - thanks for giving us the benefit of the doubt. The technology still has a long way to go before it can cater to the end-users of the world, but it is at least at the stage where other developers can join and build their own agents in preparation.
Even if they weren't, unsafe properties affect the property values of those around it.

And of course... So many other things... Your shoddily constructed deck can blow into my house during a windstorm, for example.
Your point is a good one, although it not at all obvious or self-evident that the regulatory burden is more "costly" on society than that of poorly built structures. Your post doesn't provide any evidence of that. I would guess that the general consensus holds the opposite to be true, at least for building codes in the U.S. today. It is certainly a difficult question to analyze in any kind of numeric detail.

The worst thing which is STILL wrong is the freaking comments system. When a comment has too many sub comments, they cut off these sub comments at some point and show a "click here for the rest of the comments" button. If you click on it, you are shown the rest of the sub comments, but from then on you live in some ground hog day scenario, where if you continue to read other comments of the same article, you will encounter the same comments again and again. Beats me why such a huge bug remains unfixed for years.

In this case, however, it's a fascinating bit of work from Disney Research, and well worth watching.
The percentage of famous people that everyone knows goes up every year, so each year you are more likely to know the famous people who died. Also, by the time you're in your 40s or 50s, most of the famous people you knew when you were a kid are starting to die of old age.

In music for instance, there was a huge wave of "classic rock" musicians who became really big starting around 1965 through the late 70s. These people are at least in their 70s now, which means they are starting to die of old age. Except Keith Richards. I'm starting to wonder if he's immortal.
My complaint was less against quick check, and more against the examples. Pedagogically themed ideas make sense. Practical and visible results are better. By orders of magnitude.

I'm not a vegetarian but eating meat at every meal shouldn't be normal. That people identify with eating meat to the point vegetarianism offends them speaks how well marketing works. Everything in moderation. I treat meat as a luxury, eaten on occasion.
My advice for container orchestration: pick Kubernetes and don't look back (or at least give it a solid try). It falls at the right layer of abstraction and gets so much right. You get automatic container scaling (by CPU usage for now), container composability, service discovery, configuration and (kind of) secret management, portability, it's open source, and really a whole lot more. It's spearheaded by Google, RedHat, CoreOS, and other organizations, so it's fairly safe to say that it won't completely disappear a la Google reader if it's abandoned.

I recently migrated a whole microservice stack of a half dozen services to OpenID connect and Kubernetes in two weeks. This is with about a year of casual familiarity and playing with Kubernetes, and the same migration to OpenID connect would have easily taken me 5 or 6 weeks to do in Amazon ECS, which is what we currently use in production.

Not to mention I can run a cluster on my three computers at home at no extra charge beyond electricity and play around for free. (See, dear, I'm not a hoarder!)

Setting up a cluster is even simpler now with tools like kops and kubeadm. Or just get one provisioned for you by Google or Red Hat with GKE or OpenShift.

I would highly recommend at the very least making it one of the solutions you try.
Learn programming, I have dabbled a bit in Python and R mostly for data analytics but never achieved anything at the level of proficiency, I always get frustrated.

One problem is that RE is time consuming (regardless of whether or not someone is paid to do it), and the useful life of phones tend to be much shorter than other kinds of devices, so digging apart a blob on one phone is likely to have a limited useful lifetime.

And for phones that the manufacturer actively supports, often a new version (especially if it's a new Android version) means new blobs to RE.

When you consider a lot of phones lose a ton of their user base after 2 or 3 years, it becomes much less attractive to even bother.
Clever idea, but Google also has some bot (and maybe also captcha farm) detections to try to ban captcha gamers. I think you'd also need a distributed and human-seeming proxy network.

Sounds like exposure vs actually learning something deeply.

However, both activities are very valuable. Without looking at many things, how else can we know what is worth spending time to learn or do well? I currently feel that alternating between the two is good for a while. Perhaps later in life I will know enough to confidently work on one thing for many years :)

I've also found the tree trunk of knowledge model to be very powerful (I believe I heard of it on waitbutwhy.com). The best learning and understanding comes when we build it up in a tree like fashion, where each leaf or branch is supported by a stronger, more fundamental conceptual branch. At the core is the trunk & roots, which are the deep, underlying principles supporting the entire tree of concepts/knowledge/ideas.

Without a strong trunk to build off of, concepts and bits of knowledge float alone, ungrounded, and can wither or rot more easily.
I believe that "no permit required" is for the permit office and the legislature to decide...

NoTrump News – Your source for everything but
Typically what happens is you get sued in civil court by the government. If you lose you will be required to tear down the structure. If you don't comply it will then become a case where the government tears it down and files a lein on the property to recoup the costs. Failure to pay this lein will result in foreclosure and seizure by the government.

Obviously defying a court order can wind up with contempt of court where you then can serve jail time, but the general process is civil.

Have to agree with you, even if it is orthogonal to the excellent content. I kept thinking that the story hadn't fully loaded, and the jankiness was a result of new assets popping in. After the fifth time of accidentally clicking on an ad and losing my place, I quit. What I had read up to that point was great though.

Just another example showing how fucked the media industry currently is, in that its executives and leaders don't actually dogfood their own product on digital. There's no way a competent editor or publisher would put up with that reading experience, if they had actually experienced it by reading the story via mobile. But because the story looks great in print, they probably don't care how it isn't on the web site.

Counterpoint: ReactJS solves a lot of engineers' problems in a clean and elegant way. Even if it goes away, the ideas behind it will continue to be good ones.

There's nothing wrong with Haskell, but I think that a lot of people mythologize it because it's not used by many people and has an air of academia. A lot of people do the opposite to ReactJS because it's a popular framework that a lot of people use. It has no mythos. Of course, mythos is orthogonal to actually having practical, useful ideas.

There's a qualitative difference between tuning parameters that are real numbers (exploring a continuous space with a meaningful notion of “marginally better”) and coming up with code on the fly (exploring a discrete space of syntax trees, which can only be done by enumerating them).
