there's lots of middle-ground. regulation of potentially harmful substances for adult use is a middle ground that is more legal than decriminalization, and produces better outcomes in my opinion.

decriminalization leaves control of the substance in the hands of black market vendors who are ultimately connected with black market producers. the social harm of organized crime related to black market producers is a major issue that is solved by legalization and not by decriminalization.

additionally, there is the argument for liberty. why should a police officer be allowed to confiscate something you own, if your society basically agrees that its ok for you to have it? decriminalization is an incoherent policy. why would anyone support a policy that basically says "we think this is bad but we can't be bothered to do anything about it". if its not bad enough to do anything about then why is it illegal?

legalization allows for quality control of product, inspection of businesses, collection of tax revenues, and social normalization so informed responsible use by adults can take place.

in my opinion, there is no good argument for decriminalization besides the weak "it's better than militant prohibition". any of the goods that come from decriminalization are also present in regulated legalization, and then there are significant additional goods from legalization that cannot be achieved by decriminalization alone.

As a long-term Lua fan, I'm with you. I think that the OP is really complaining about not understanding the Lua VM well enough to push it to its limits - in fact, coding up a 'proper state machine' that can compete with what the Lua VM, itself, has to offer is going to be very, very difficult.

That said, I'm in favour of other approaches to this problem - using (i.e. generating) Lua bytecode itself as a way of maintaining state, and then pushing things around while having a good understanding of llimits.h seems to be quite important ..
My recommendations:

- Rammstein - Du Riechst So Gut: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrmsJhf89MY (music video)
-- nearly everyone's heard of Rammstein; their music videos are always well done and usually tell a story, often based on traditional Germanic fairy tales.

- Korpiklaani - Tuli Kokko: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRbg1uEglEE
-- folk metal

- Eluveitie - The Arcane Dominion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-hkjryDCmg
-- folk metal again, from their album "Evocation 1", which was recorded with traditional, acoustic instruments.

- The Kovenant - The Human Abstract: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YH3P_6Ns7Go
-- black metal, has some electronic/industrial influence. Vocals may be an acquired taste.

- Lordi - Hard Rock Hallelujah: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGe8qID9gSs (music video)
-- These guys won Eurovision in 2006; their gimmick is that every band member is a monster (think Gwar).

- Nekrogoblikon - We Need a Gimmick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Q3ub1SUYfg (music video)
-- another band with a gimmick (heh) - goblins, obviously. Vocals are again an acquired taste, but this whole album is worth listening to for a wonderful story about goblins trying to commit autogenocide.

- Urizen - Boxmen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDv1U_P7gTk
-- 8-bit influenced metal with good vocals.

- Epica - The Last Crusade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV3gQcb8jU0
-- symphonic metal with female vocals.

- Babymetal - Gimme Choko: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIKqgE4BwAY (music video)
-- jpop meets metal. You're basically either going to love this or hate this.

- Ladybaby - Nippon Manju: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8-vje-bq9c (music video)
-- jpop meets metal, but with a bearded Austrlian lead singer.

- Knorkator - Buchstabe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUcSTyD2T7M (music video)
-- comedy metal from Germany; funnier if you understand the lyrics.

> This one's a bit unique as it all began with a small group of teenagers in Jessheim in Norway in the late 80s/early 90s. They wanted to be 'evil' and 'extreme' but they lacked the musical ability to rival the predominantly (at the time) Swedish and American Death Metal scenes. So instead they did what anyone would do (not) they started burning down churches, proclaiming themselves 'Satanists' and killing each other.

That statement ignores a big part of the black metal aesthetic and does a huge disservice to the many great musicians in the scene. The raw production values were in response to the rising popularity and commercialization of death metal around the late '80s and early '90s and the 'plastic' production that came with it. Listen to Soulside Journey and then A Blaze in the Northern Sky and try telling me it wasn't absolutely intentional. Then listen to anything Emperor released and try telling me "they lacked the musical ability to rival the predominantly (at the time) Swedish and American Death Metal scenes."

Euronymous spent tons of time perfecting the production of De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas. Whether it sounds harsh to the average listener or not (it does), he went out of his way to have 1) audible bass (check it out on headphones sometime), 2) thunderously huge drums and 3) cacophonous guitars, true to his playing style. These were all calculated, intentional decisions, meant to drive the cold, bleak aesthetic.

Big questions (for me at least here)

How is the Pad sensitivity on that combo (i.e. X1 Carbon + Ubuntu + Gnome3)

Also: do you have the double finger scroll thing, what about the double tap for secondary mouse button? also three finger move and four finger gestures?

One of the things I love about my Mac is how easy to use the trackpad is with all of its features.
(the other things are durability and being a POSIX system, both covered apparently by the lenovo and being a Linux).
I won't pay an extra 1000USD or more for it though, especially if it's reasonably ok in the X1 for instance
It's not my opinion... the description of Black Metal made it sound like crap.
There's a guy, Sam Dunn[0], who is an anthropologist and metal head. He did the documentary movie Metal: A Headbanger's Journey[1] and later the documentary series Metal Evolution[2] on VH1 Classic. If you're interested at all in the topic, they're definitely fun to watch, a good way to find some new music, and learn a bit more and think more about what's going on with the music. Personally, I found the episode on Shock Rock to be my favorite.

If something goes wrong, as we've seen with Tesla, the car tends to barrel full-speed into very solid obstacles.

Because, duh, something went wrong.

Human errors tend to be misjudging something and then getting into a situation that, due to physics, they can't quite get out of. So you can't quite stop the car in time and you hit the car in front of you at 15mph.

Car errors are going to be things like "I thought the tractor trailer was a billboard or a bird so I hit it at 60mph with no braking". Or "I lost all sensor data and got stuck in a loop so I drove off the bridge". It's a fundamentally different sort of error.
You're right, I misspoke, it is habit forming and non-addictive.

We've recently had to move away from redis for persistent data storage at work too - opting instead to write a service layer ontop of cassandra for storing data.

Redis was tremendous in our journey up there - but one of the shortcomings is that it isn't as easy to scale-up as cassandra is if you haven't designed your system to scale-up on redis from when it was built (which we didn't) - instead of re-architecting for a redis-cluster setup, we decided to move the component to a clustered microservice written in go, that sits as a memory-cache & write buffer infront of cassandra for hot, highly mutated data.

Would anyone be interested in a blog post about our struggles & journey?

> They exist to report on existing things even if they have bugs.

On one level, sure. They found a legit bug. However, the bug was in a codepath that regular users would never experience. You and I might, but we're not the ones reading Consumer Reports to pick a laptop. My non-technical friends certainly aren't going into hidden settings to turn off browser performance features, but they're the ones who'll see that bad review and worry about it.

> Gentoo was circa 2005 and Ubuntu was circa 2012. I spent months trying to make it work, but it was too much. Software ran slower, installing package updates was like playing Minesweeper and worst of all, I had to use Wine. A friend of mine tried it as recently as 2014, then gave up as expected.

Ah cool! The reason I asked is that a lot has changed in the last four years or so. Dell's Sputnik (http://www.dell.com/developers) program is the one that specifically comes to my mind. But it is possible to buy a variety of Dell workstation models with Linux pre-installed with support. And according to the recent new product blog (https://bartongeorge.io/2017/01/09/welcome-the-new-ubuntu-ba...) the Sputnik project only released the first 13" DE a little less than 4 years ago.

So I was asking since I thought it might be neat to know about some of the changes in the landscape (provided you haven't attempted in a while :) ...)

Edit: Forgot to mention, that Dell's efforts generally improve the Linux driver ecosystem as well since they upstream their drivers to the kernel:

> as many drivers developed for the laptop are "upstreamed" to the Linux kernel [1]

The main issue is things get pretty harry around computers. Primarily because you can modify the state of a computer without physical entry.

For example if I plant murder evidence in your home either myself, or an associate of mine must of physically entered your residence. We likely came into contact with the physical item, handling it, etc. Furthermore the associate if caught is very likely to roll on me.

For computers none of these are true.

I could automate placing child-porn on THOUSANDS of computers. If done properly there would be little to no evidence the owner did not do this themselves.

I could plant child porn in your computer _while_ I'm pretending to be somebody else (IP + MAC + login location + OS + credentials, etc.) so even if the CP was proven to be planted it is traced to somebody else and they prosecuted.

There is no parallel to this in the real world. The game theory of bribing somebody to do your dirty work is far far messier then a bot. Computers offer ways of hiding that make the physical world laughable.
Think of it as apple versus microsoft. If your building a "cool" product you should build it and then show it off. if your building business software your better off going his route.
Being "the best in the world" is not necessary. By definition, there can only be one "best in the world" at any given endeavor, so most people will probably never reach that level at anything. There's much enjoyment and satisfaction to be had in doing things for their own sake rather than comparing yourself to others.
You're right that large companies have many different workflows. Currently GitLab's is tied very specifically to issues and merge requests, with additional features like labels and milestones. This is a great foundation with which we plan to build on top of. Issue boards is our current area of expansion. But we do plan on further enriching issues themselves, introducing some structure at some point (e.g. "epic" in the language of Pivotal or borrowing from the ideas of JIRA with their many powerful issue relationships (parents, children, clones, etc.), but of course aiming to significantly reducing that complexity. Part of that discussion is here: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/4058.

With GitLab, one of our goals is to put all the pieces together. We are building out the integrations, step by step, from idea to production. We believe in a world where everyone can contribute to projects. In a large organization, this means diversity in workflows and individuals. Again, I mention that we are focused on really understanding who those users are as part of this exercise. Our UX design team has begun that work and we have already started research on personas. This will further drive our development of GitLab and make sure to nail those other use cases beyond the narrow scope of software development, into allowing companies to leverage GitLab to create software and processes to run their businesses.

In particular, here at GitLab we use GitLab itself for some HR operations too. So we recognize the potential there. And we even want to ship a simple feature for operational support tickets (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/149). So we definitely recognize the breadth of opportunity and the gaps we still have.

>On certain streets every couple of hundred feet there was some pusher asking if I wanted drugs. By the third day or so I was getting really annoyed with them.

Get out of the RLD! The street dealers are a truly obnoxious blight on the city, but they are really only concentrated in certain areas. They prey on the gullible, party-driven young tourists on stag-dos and the like. Most often what they sell is fake, and infamously some years ago one fool was selling white heroin as cocaine, leading to several deaths and a city-wide campaign to encourage people to ignore street dealers and not to fear punishment for seeking medical help.

I've been working on a site that is similar to medium. Not to compete with them though. I love medium and the access it and exposure it gives those who want to say something, and the ease of use.

You can check it out at http://ibloc.com if you want.

I have not put near the kind of work into it that the good folks at Medium have. It's just been an exercise for me to begin learning to use CouchDB, PouchDB, and other open source tools but I wanted to make something that anyone could use to share interesting stuff, whatever that might be (with the obvious limits).

I think if "Medium" has any problems they stem from being a concept that is still ahead of its time. Investors want to monetize everything, and it's fair to say that it will have to support itself, but it's also fair to assume that the old ways of doing that may not work too well.

To address that they will have to come up with some new ways, or adapt new ways that spring up elsewhere, but there's still work that needs to be done on the "new media" itself that is being developed.

While making ibloc I began to ponder how to "monetize it". That's part of the fun of playing with a new or different (to me) concept. I think there are some new/different ways to do that which might work, but who knows?

I believe we need it thought. Medium has and still is shining a light on a new way to find and share info. It's an important project.

Our goal is to create flexibility for workers. We looked at why so many companies still used pen and paper scheduling, and built a product for that market.

We found in user tests that many employees don't have email, and even run on prepaid phones. So, every Sunday they drive to each of their jobs (sometimes two or more) to find out when they are working. Alternatively, their manager (or a coworker) takes a photo of the schedule and texts it to them.

That's the person we built this V2 for. We're saving them time compared to traveling to work to see a printed schedule.

We want to further increase flexibility with tools like shift swapping. However, like I detailed in our other comment, using methods like email didn't have high enough engagement to give workers access to the feature. So, we built Staffjoy V2 with the idea of increasing engagement so that we could build more worker-friendly tools.

Finally, the workers can turn it off if they want.

That perspective seems a little naive.

They are professionals, so they know "what it takes" to be good at the subject.

Machine learning math is not rigorous in comparison to the type of math you'd study as a math or physics major.

Machine learning math is useful precisely because of the fact that it shows you intuitively how the concepts work.

Knowing the "high level" ideas is near-useless. I can get the "high level" ideas of quantum mechanics from any high school or pop science physics book. Does that mean I know quantum mechanics? Only at an extremely superficial level.

And I suspect anyone taking a MOOC on AI or machine learning wants to end up with more than superficial knowledge.

I can confirm on Paris. Been to Paris, Barcelona, Rome, Amsterdam, Lisbon, and Paris has been definitively the worst, with all the scammers around Eiffel Tower and Sacre Coeur. Lisbon also felt a bit weird in some places.

https://github.com/facebook/pfff is a tool which support pretty printing a bunch of different languages (currently c, c++, java, js, php, python, rust, and a bunch more).

The idea is to have a common AST (with parsers for each language) which keeps track of whitespace/comments/etc and then share a ton of logic by writing writing code at the AST layer.

You can use pfff to pretty print according to your style needs. Also supports a bunch of other neat things such as search/replace.

Text messaging is a great tool for reaching a wide group of users (think WhatsApp). Shift scheduling touches a lot of low income and part time workers who may not have access to smartphones or data plans. Missing a shift can be costly. To me this isn't about being on call, but helping the workers ensure they have some control over their time.
This feels like advice from 2010. I'm just not sure how much of it is relevant any more.
Thanks. I thought the poster was the entire article, I didn't notice that there was more content below it. Whoops.
