so "October", I'm guessing, fully 2 years after Dell's latitude 15s did 32 gig in a perfectly thin and impressive design, and by which time, most likely, Dell and Lenovo will be showing 64 gig options. Only one solution here: Jony Ive's design-first dictatorship needs to end. At least for anything labelled "pro".

Thats kind of the point, they are bad to pests that try to eat the crop

And pesticides are also bad for other insects that don't eat the crops, and are necessary for our ecosystem to function.

And pesticides are bad for people and animals in the longer term too.
Applauding with the audience may have been meant as a sign of humility or marxist fatalism. However, by Occam's razor, it comes across as what it looks like: the speaker applauding himself.
This wont matter because google isn't prioritizing CPP sites. Google has the majority of the traffic and it gets to dictate that amp gets preferential treatment.

Personally, I'm very worryed Facebook's position in our society.
This is a common misconception.

Every culture faces multiple classes of pests: virii, fungus, bacterias, nematods, insects, rodents, birds...

What is good to control a pest can be beneficial to another since they compete for the same resource.

Thank you very very much for this great feedback! I tracked down the bug while on the plane and for some reason Docker was not minifying the files. I went ahead and tweaked it, sending one js file down the pipeline instead of all the assets, but can't deploy yet due to slow wifi.

Edit, just spent 20 minutes pushing via GOGO, don't have to wait until I get into IAH. Let me know if the fix worked for you.

Sorry for the late response, but I decided to go ahead and take the flight to Washington DC and figure everything out on my way there, landing at 11:30AM
These aws guys are literally putting the pieces together while we're watching.

This is something I'll definitely will give a try.
Have to do side projects. In my past life, I was getting sucked into becoming a very conservative tech stack lifer at a huge, all-encompassing company. Most people that surrounded me, even the good, hard-working ones, were 9-5 and expressed surprise and hostility to learning anything outside of the company bubble. Then one day a new, more active guy joined our team and whipped up a complete REST-based service in a week. My mind=blown. I quit for the startups, and moved on to using dozens of different stacks since and never looked back. The best, most educating moments typically happened outside of work, when you combine the patterns and observations from work with a different stack or a smart outsider friend who chimes in on your daily struggles from a surprising different angle.

Another enlightening moment for me was when I was working on a hobby machine learning project, and shared my design concerns with a brilliant but very much non-ML coworker, and all of a sudden that coworker laid out the whole design in a pretty convincing detail, like he's been doing this work for years. After the initial shock from his seemingly birth-given ML skills, I noticed that he simply takes a lot of good online classes and goes through all the top ML material on the web in his spare time, even though it was irrelevant to his tech focus at the time. Well guess what, two years later he got promoted and he's making that sweet data science money, and guess where he would have been if he only focused on his old day-to-day instead.

It became voluntary for the British only because our Prime Minister was weak and (foolishly?) gambled on a referendum in return for strengthening his personal support among some of his eurosceptic MPs.

You want organic and efficient? How about hermetically sealed "vertical" robot-operated farms in skyscrapers? No pests, so no pesticides.
>>> Don't confuse individual racism with national identity

I don't believe he's talking about individual racism but systematic racism employed by the US government, which historically preferred people from a certain background.

Italians and Irish people weren't even considered white. Chinatowns were basically invented in the US because Asian immigrants wouldn't (or not allowed to) integrate.
> a weird concept in the first place, since this is a very basic supply/demand thing (...) but then it's a matter of setting import restrictions, not having an artificial price floor enforced

I sometimes wonder if such concepts aren't simply the limits of human mind in action - price floor is simple, farmers can do some basic calculations and figure out that "if only milk costed at least €this, we could finally make a profit on it" (this is obviously ignoring all the clever ways markets can work around such increases, but that's complexity again). It's also a single thing to ask for. On the other hand, changing import tariffs is complicated, affects many things, and its effect on milk prices is indirect and therefore hard to predict.

It's like two different perspectives - from God's eye view on the country as a system, it's obvious you have to tweak some internals to get the desired effect. But from the perspective of people on the sides of the system asking someone to change something, those internals may be unavailable and instead of picking what's best, they have to pick what's available.
Tips for Controlling Your Blood Pressure
You still need heat, but you can make fiber from basalt:

Among other things its used to make a type of rebar.
Actually, no. While there is variability in ground- and surface water pollution across Europe, and safe levels are exceeded in some places, the overall trend is stable. See pretty much all reporting on this by e.g. the EEA, Eurostat, DG Agri/Env, etc.

First, one can say that these 'official' bodies are just in the pocket of 'big Ag' and can't be trusted etc. - it's a common trope, but there is no proof and also (although of course this doesn't count for anything in the larger context) contrary to by experience.

Secondly, just because things are 'stable', doesn't mean they're 'great' or even 'good'. There is obviously much work left, and despite many people's hate on the EU, things like the Nitrate Directive and others like it there are clear frameworks in place and things are looking up. Again, I'm not saying 'all OK, let's go home'; but factless scare mongering like 'massively polluted', 'need massively reducing fertilizer and pesticide use' etc. is counterproductive. I'm not even sure what you're implying - population restrictions? Rebirth of Malthusianism?
I'd suggest you try it your self.

try growing stuff on a city balcony. assuming sun and water, it'll grow really well, due to the urban heat island.

However when you get pests, thats it, game over. you've got black fly, and they are never going away(I tried sprays, buying ladybirds, nematoads)

Why? because you only have one tiny portion of the ecosystem that is based on pests. Most pests are way down the food pyramid.

Now, I moved to an allotment, with a huge range of crops, which has a huge range of pest and predators. I had black fly for a week, and then the ladybirds came.

Why? because pests are seasonal, you need broad range of pests to keep the predators in any useful numbers.
You can't implicitly grant licenses just by implementing something like AMP. That said, the DMCA contains specific language for caches (and search) so they probably have that right anyway.
Well about the ones you have said in specific, AI/VR, I do not think they will be a requirement for the majority of jobs in the software industry for quite some time.

I believe that even though technology changes fast, the things you need to change do not move as quickly but that probably depends on the company and technology that company is using in the first place.

Where I am working, we are writing software mostly in Java, some analysis on the data with Splunk and SQL for the database.

Sure enough I had to keep up with Java development but it is not _that_ rapidly. Nevermind the fact that the company only now is switching to Java 8.

That being said, I do like learning new things in the field but they are not the "latest cool things", for example now I am learning Haskell by reading books on it and doing excercises, the normal way to learn a new language afaik.

I do tend to check out things that tickle my interest, lately I have made a small app in Angular2/Dart because it sounded interesting, but by no means have I learned to use them in-depth.
But we don't need an excuse. However the explanation seems necessary given that:

- we saw it happen once;

- we said it would happened again;

- we said how;

- we said why;

- and it happened again.

And apparently nobody gives a damn. People are still trying to get short term gains by adapting to Google's will and wrecking our industry, efficiently sawing the branch we are all seating on.

So yeah, we need to give the explanation. Again. And again. Until people hear it.

We are responsible of the situation.

Not Google. Before Google there was others like MS, and after they will be others. It's like a disease. You don't blame diseases, it's very useless, you explain, and you act.

Yes, your site will not make as much money. But for God sake, it's the same rational for green energy, criminal prevention and the like. You pay NOW because you understand that it's necessary on the long run.
No, its explicitly an AMP thing. Google serves the user a cached version of your page directly from its servers, hence the google.com/amp/ url
>And pesticides are bad for people and animals in the longer term too.

Can you source that claim?

Reducing the consumption of meat seems like a step in the right direction. It's a huge drain on water, land, energy and calories. At the very least, people should be paying for the real cost. Taking it further, instead of subsidizing these industries, I wouldn't mind seeing a beef-tax.
I'm in complete agreement. I've been working steadily with older platforms for 20+ years. I pick up newer frameworks if needed, but as I rarely choose to work with startups, they are rarely needed. I have been working through some Deep Learning coursework... you are right that the math behind it all is not new, but the practical application of it all with readily available GPUs and libraries is starting to make it approachable to the average coder, so I feel it is time to become familiar with it. And a few such things have come along over the years... SPAs via AJAX, MVC/MVVC patterns, etc. But I don't consider a new pattern every few years to be exactly a fast pace to keep up with. And underneath it all, for us web developers, we still are working with the same basic HTTP request/response model, just doing fancier stuff with it at either end.
Everyone said I was crazy to do this. I think the exact words were it is never going to happen, how are you going to crack through all that noise in DC, and that nobody is really going to care right now.

I think people assumed I was stupid, since my response to most was look I know the odds of Obama granting this are practically none, and getting him to look at it, there’s not really a chance. I probably have 3 people who have looked at my thread, and it’s true that nobody really cares.

Here’s how I look at it, the federal government took 6 years of my dad’s life, 6 years of my life, our family, our friends, they spent over $2 Million dollars prosecuting this man, who when you look at the site and the facts was a complete waste of taxpayer money. And we continue to pay to jail him, simply to send a message to all of those who dare challenge the federal government by pleading not guilty.

I will be thrilled if we receive clemency, but that’s not the most realistic thing in the world. What I think I have earned the right to, is simply have my voice heard. With one swoosh of the pen Obama can change everything and reunite me with my father, is 5 minutes consideration really too much to ask?

Part of Obama's last days in office are about protecting his legacy. Correcting this injustice is one thing Obama could achieve with the swoosh of a pen.
From what I hear, it does. More than that - because "organic" is at least in some part based around scaring people with "unnatural things" and "evil chemicals", it limits its choice of pesticides, potentially excluding ones that are less toxic and less harmful, just because they're not "natural".
Not "used", "flight proven" :)
To accurately assess the long-term cost/benefit of GMOs vs organic farming, one would need to understand the long-term externalized costs of each.

We understand the long-term impact of organic farming. We do not understand the long-term impact of many GMOs.
meh, that is a pretty naive thing to say

The US is not the world.

What sorts of data sets are you looking for? It is probably available from other countries or could be more easily collected. I have an interest in this area too
Also that's a stupid metric: subsistence farming is wildly inefficient and cannot sustain the population of any country today.
Making it accessible means that they can easily sell upgrades.
One thing that caught my attention is that the doctors get it right only 60% of time. The algorithm gets 80%. But that is also a lot of room for improvement considering what machine learning can do.

If there is anyone familiar with this kind of data. Please chip in something about the nature of data. It will be helpful in appreciating the difficulty of the problem more.
I think by social system he includes the health services.

A similar notion about Norway singled out the public health services as an enabler for someone to come up with an idea and start their own business without worrying about things like health insurance.

Thus the business could grow more organically than the pump and dump VC circus seen in USA.
Use terms that convey the objection you have to it. Or object to the negative effects they have in the first place.
AMP made me switch to DuckDuckGO on my iPhone as default search engine. Day 5, and so far I am surprised how well it works! I might switch on my computers too... Google just went too far with AMP in my opinion, pure abuse of power. Reminds me of something that would Facebook do, where they push changes down the consumers throat, but they aren't aware of their dependency on users (but most people don't care, bitch and whine about something that they do not like and don't sanction the product/company).
It's only your preconceptions that are ludicrous. In 1990s agriculture in Russia partially collapsed, so people turned to their small plots of land and "captured the food production". They were lucky they knew how - the communist government-managed centralized distribution was unreliable so the skill was handy. Of course, there's no hard data from this chaotic period, but being from eastern european country myself, it is fully conceivable. There's widespread home food gardening culture (only we don't call it "organic", just "how it was always done").
"Now, this is where my thoughts get controversial:"

This is not controversial. It's widely recognized (even by conventional farming bodies) that soil degradation is a major environmental threat. At the EU level, while the Soil Directive proposal was withdrawn a few years ago, much other environmental work and legislation is about mitigation and monitoring of soil degradation / threats. There are different schools of thought on how to deal with it though; the 'let's go back to subsistence farming' idea isn't the only way.
Actually, GMOs need less pesticides than non GMO crop.

Depends what you compare it to.

Roundup-resistant crops allow roundup-intensive farming [1] which does less* environmental harm than some more harmful pesticides (if you ignore the development of roundup-resistant weeds). But lower intensity, less productive organic techniques use fewer pesticides and do even less environmental harm.

Creating brand loyalty is very expensive, but can definitely be worth it. I guess most of us have brands they buy without any specific reason, other than that they somehow like them or that they always used them.

While it's very hard to measure the effect of ads trying to create this loyalty, it doesn't mean that it's not worth it.

I've discovered that for myself where I saw ads on Facebook that I didn't click, but later saw a product in store and tried it out. If you just follow conversions, you'd say that the Facebook ad was worthless, whereas it actually influenced my buying decision.

I'd argue that most money on ads is well spent, but to be effective, you must have a huge budget. People need to see your ad multiple times, so that they'll be familiar with a product. If you don't have that budget, it'll be very hard to use ads effectively. But that's no fault of FB or Google, that's just psychology.
As I understand the matter, squid aren't on the same order of demonstrated intelligence as octopi, so ordinary squid calamari shouldn't pose an ethical concern in that regard. Tako sunomono might be another matter, though, and likewise Legal Sea Food's giant scampi, topped with a dwarf octopus cooked whole.

Lets not forget that CAFOs producing cheap beef, pork and chicken are only possible because of cheap corn, which is unhealthy for humans, since cattle aren't evolved to survive on a corn diet, being like a human being fed only candy, hence they also need to be fed with antibiotics, to prevent liver infections.

Corn that is subsidized by the government with your taxes. And where corn grows, nothing else does ;-)

Even the things they do better in 10 than 7 often suck. Virtual desktops with no hotkey to move window to the other desktop. Move window to quadrant on screen, cool, now what about 1/3 of screen so I can use this 55" 4k monitor properly... Nope. Etc etc, windows 7 sucks in it's own ways, like you can't use a high contrast theme with aero, and with no aero you get screen tearing in videos.

If they would earn their money, and make actual useful innnovation, instead of being beat at their own UI game by third parties, like windows management, and keyboard macros etc etc, then 10 would be awesome. Hell even windows 10 task manager is crapper than the third party alternatives.
Not all management value comes from managing downward, from the manager's supervision of their direct reports. Managing upwards and outwards are critical too. For instance, setting sales and marketing expectations on when new product really will be available.
oh, I'm not suggesting subsitance farming, that just sucks balls. Have you ever tried to plough furrows with horses? that shits hard.

we need to be dumping literal mountains of shit on the fields again. we also need to stop killing the soil ecosystem, so that fungus, worms and all manner of other things can grown and break the soil up
Instead of using a 3rd party tool to manage GWX, MS have a support doc telling you how to disable it. Did it on a large number of Windows 7 Pro/Home machine and the issue went away.

I don't like the "reclaim your privacy" windows 10 apps simply because the ones I've used have made a hash of it. Maybe he one you linked to is better but I've always felt better doing these changes myself so I know what changes to undo later if they break something.

After using one such tool some months later, I wanted to use the Fast Windows Insider build to get Bash for Windows but one of the privacy options remained set and I manually had to do though every one to find the one that didn't unset. Also had friends have update issues as some of these tools black holes MS update servers.

You can turn off most of the telemetry in home/pro but if you want to turn off all the telemetry upgrade to enterprise edition.

Never had the options turn completely back on with updates. What I have had if I run Insider builds then from build to build some settings can be reset as they are basically fresh installs on top of your existing install. But never had options change from normal updates.

As for the reboot thing the default is a pain in the arse. But it's an option that can. E turned off in group policies (can't remember if you can do it outside of GPE as I make most of the changes I need at the same time in GPE)
