Well, a lot of the people who can't afford to live in SF, but would like to, still live in California, consuming California water. They just live farther out in the north, east, or south bays.

Of course, if SF actually had 3, 5, or 10 times the population it does today then there would probably have to be a lot of infrastructure changes too. But the limit probably wouldn't be available water for residents.
Scottsdale is wonderful.
In addition to what you've pointed out, he claims that 2to3 didn't do anything to his code, and yet he had to fix print statements. 2to3 definitely fixes print statements; he likely didn't read the usage or docs at all. By default it prints a diff, you have to use 2to3 -w if you want it to modify files on disk -- I certainly don't want tools modifying files in-place by default, so that seems like the right API to me.

And yet the Pixel is itself a custom skin of Android.

Google Assistant? Not available on my Nexus 5X, which I received less than a year ago. Search button behaves differently, Allo behaves differently, "night mode" removed Nexus 5X build and added to Pixel build.

I'm upset because I thought switching to a Google-designed Android phone would rescue me from fragmentation and give me access to the best, cleanest Android experience.

Then they released the Pixel and removed a feature from my phone and fragmented their own operating system's features to differentiate a new device.
Few thoughts on computational art design
This is the one thing the article got wrong about the talk. The 7074 replaced magnetic drums with core memory. It's an easy mistake to make since the 700 series used vacuum tube logic and the 7070 replaced those with transistors. The 7074 came about two years after that.
Kafka wasn't that capable of being a good writer in that situation either. He finished a handful of short stories, never finished a novel, and most of his writing lay unfinished and unpublished at his death.

I just switched from Mac to Windows 10, and I work on a lot of Django projects.

I use PyCharm (love jetbrains) + Vagrant and it's working great so far. I'd highly recommend spending the time learning Vagrant - it can be incredibly frustrating at times (on both mac and windows), but once you get it working right it's really rewarding. Being able to re-instantiate a VM when something gets really botched is a great feeling. I don't have to worry about my host machine getting messed up, so I'm free to tinker around in the VM and that speeds up my learning.

The one downside I've encountered so far is how many different "terminal" style apps I need to run to get everything working. Currently I need powershell (as admin) for spinning up the VM, putty to SSH into it, and git bash for source control. I can probably simplify them all into powershell but for now it works.
Reports of users. If users report suicidal thoughts during tests and in "the field", then the drug is said to be connected to suicides when users of it end up offing themselves.

The official term is "increased risk of suicide", with the reasoning being suicidal thoughts is a necessary precursor to suicide. But nobody's death certificate actually says that a prescription drug was the cause of death, when it was a suicide.

This seems to be in terms of bandwidth; I'm not sure about viewership. I've always considered the World Cup to be the biggest televised/streamed event, so I usually look to compare to it:

Trump:

> At its peak, 4.6 million concurrent viewers watched the inauguration.

The prior World Cup[1]:

> On the digital side, leading content delivery network provider Akamai has confirmed this is the biggest event in terms of video content streaming on record

> In the United States alone, a record-breaking 5.3 million unique viewers tuned in for the round-of-16 match between Belgium and the United States on ESPN and Univision platforms, representing unprecedented traffic for both broadcasters.

But perhaps those 5.3 million weren't concurrent. But then, the 5.3 million is in only in the US. So who knows…

>it is the right of the worker class to break the social order

This line of reasoning isn't very useful, since it doesn't matter what is "right" or "just", only what's realistic or at least possible. The "worker class" can't break the social order, or at least not in a way that improves their situation.
part of the problem with this is that, from what i've heard, the actual action of putting the cigarette to your mouth is addictive as well. in many cases, people will advise smokers to do the action with a pen or some such to help with that. i can only imagine that vaping would be even closer, and help even more

In NZ there is free healthcare, free accident insurance and a decent welfare program. Being a capitalist country, there is still income inequality, but the situation is no way near as bad as it is in the US because of these safety nets for the bottom quartile.

The homicide rate in NZ is less than 1 per 100,000 inhabitants. And almost all of those homicides are solved, because the police force is large compared to the number of homicides.

I disagree strongly that NZ has the same problems as the US. If I lose my leg doing wheelies while drunk on a motorcycle cos I'm idiot, I will be taken care of at hospital, free of charge. If I get cancer, I will get surgery/radiotherapy/chemo till its beaten, free of charge. If I have trouble getting pregnant, the government will fund up to 3 IVF attempts. When I am prescribed drugs, they will basically only ever cost ~$5 a month.

All this is possible because the government does a cost/benefit analysis to decide whether various health treatments are actually worth doing. And if it decides something is worth doing, it buys/trains in bulk. As a result, NZ spends ~$3200 USD per capita on healthcare, compared to the >$7500 USD the US spends.

And if you're rich, then buy private health insurance. It's waaaaay cheaper, because the government program will happily use private hospitals if they pass the cost/benefit analysis. So private hospitals have a real incentive to provide health care cheaply.

But back to the poor. Because of these safety nets, you can be super happy and relaxed in NZ even if you're in the bottom quartile.

I would know. I'm in it.

That's presumably why the jury found her partially at fault. However, increasing the temperature above that greatly increases the severity of the burns, which is why McDonald's was also partially at fault because they served the coffee at a higher temperature so her burns were more severe than they would have been if it had been served at a normal temperature.
Turning Uber into a glorified taxi company, compliant with all existing taxi legislation in every jurisdiction worldwide and employing full-time employees with fixed schedules, would either kill it or strip its value so severely as to make it a laughing stock.

I have no doubt that heavy-handed regulation could bring such a change. Commenters here and on other submissions seem to complain that such regulation doesn't exist, in particular that Uber doesn't employ full time workers.

Maybe I'm missing something. Help me understand what the hyperbolic part is.
You make an excellent point, but usually I can have a good conversation with a doctor about a physical malady, and once they work out that I'm not a hypochondriac or trying to impress them consultations have been very productive. I picked my last psychiatrist partly because he had a decent publishing record and I thought he would have some academic curiosity - and for all I know maybe he does, but he doesn't share it with his patients :)
I did not even talk about the flaws the West has. It is about majority and minority. There is always a disadvantage for minority, especially psychologically. You just love to jump to conclusion that Western culture is better and other cultures are worse and find the evidence to serve your goal.

By the time I scrolled down the video had finished playing then went to the next video. I then refreshed the page and scrolled down quickly only to find they had added a big banner over the video telling about the next video in the queue. I'm not sure I'm ever going back to smithsonianmag.com

Bath County is not the World's largest pumped hydro storage plant. At 24GWh it is smaller than TVA Raccoon Mountain, which is 34GWh. There may be bigger ones, but unfortunately nobody makes rankings of the energy stored in pumped hydro plants.

Re-read the description of Bath County and you will find that they pump from the upper reservoir into the lower reservoir. Therefore, adding the capacity of the two reservoirs and dividing by the flow rate is a bad assumption.

It took me months to learn the best practices to create a clean Python package. And nothing is particularly difficult. Just information to gather and sort out. Given deb/rpm are old systems with a lot of legacy, I seriously doubt your 60 minutes claim, even if it's infinity better than Python status quo. Which I doubt as well since all GNU standard are usually a spaghetti of past requirements mixed with FOSS politics.

>"in other words, Western Union is guilty of not being zealous enough at being a quasi-law enforcement agency and investigating its customer transactions."

No not at all, they are guilty of willfully being a party to criminal enterprise. You might want to read the full DOJ brief:

"In its agreement with the Justice Department, Western Union admits to criminal violations including willfully failing to maintain an effective anti-money laundering (AML) program and aiding and abetting wire fraud.

Note the word "willfully."

Further:

"“Our investigation uncovered hundreds of millions of dollars being sent to China in structured transactions designed to avoid the reporting requirements of the Bank Secrecy Act, and much of the money was sent to China by illegal immigrants to pay their human smugglers,” said U.S. Attorney Decker.

“In a case being prosecuted by my office, a Western Union agent has pleaded guilty to federal charges of structuring transactions – illegal conduct the company knew about for at least five years

They structured transactions to avoid detection so they could continue to collect lucrative fees and knowingly did so for years.

Compilers for some IBM mainframes have for decades (since the 1970s, I think) targeted an intermediate virtual machine instruction set which is then translated on-the-fly to the local architecture by the OS upon execution. So in the case of IBM their machines are truly built with both forward and backward compatibility in mind. The pointers for this instruction set have been 128 bits since the beginning, long before 64-bit hardware even came into being.

Some (or all?) of the latest Unisys mainframes run on Intel Xeons, but with custom chips for translating the machine code of their old architectures.

I don't work in this area. I just like reading about it. Though, unfortunately, it's difficult to find clear specifications and descriptions on how these architectures work.

For example, Unisys' 2200 ClearPath architecture is one of the (if not _the_) last architectures still sold that uses signed-magnitude representation, as well as having an odd-sized integer width of 39 bits. (INT_MAX is 549755813887 and INT_MIN is -549755813887, and the compiler has to "emulate" the modulo arithmetic semantics required of unsigned types in C. ClearPath MCP is also a POSIX system, and has to emulate an 8-bit char type.) I discovered that you could download the specification for their C compiler for free online, which was useful when discussing the relevancy of undefined behavior in C. But AFAIU (and this is where finding concrete details is more difficult) the latest models of the ClearPath line use Xeons with custom chips bolted on to help run the machine code of the older architecture. In any event, the point is that while the old architecture is arguably emulated, it's not a pure software emulation that you might assume, and the resulting performance is better than the previous models of those mainframes, which were still being built at least until a few years ago. In other words, direct memory access isn't ruled out because the I/O systems may have been intentionally designed to work efficiently in a backwards compatible manner.
They don't care. You as a user (for Google) ain't a customer, you're the product. This is most starkly clear in their customer service. Most of their free products don't even have one and refer to the Google forums. Meanwhile AdWords, AdSense etc. customer service is top notch.

What pisses me off most is that there is no clear alternative if you want to keep your data portable between multiple brands/devices. Microsoft often works poorly. Apple only works on Apple. The alternative is a hodgepodge of services (SimpleNote, HERE maps, EverNote, etc) that requires tons of accounts.
I thought about making something like this to filter out Apple stories actually. I use Firefox, might try and load this as a web extension.

I disagree with that. AMP pages load and work for me without fail. Most non-AMP news sites are unreadable on my phone. Saying it adds a "layer of suck over an already sucky experience" doesn't give AMP nearly enough credit.

Funnily enough I've never had problems with more stereotypically addictive drugs like cocaine. Maybe it's because of being exposed so much earlier or something.
You underestimate how stultifying size can be. When I was at Google, pretty much everyone cared about how the internal incentives were screwed up. There were a lot of attempts at changing structure of promotion and career development, but nobody knows how to do it. To be fair, I'm not aware of any entities of that size who don't have the same problem of with balancing the need for centralization with keeping bright workers motivated and growing.

I doubt the payload is the problem in most cases. The ads load asynchronously, in most cases, and cause other types of performance issues. When an ad loads and causes your scroll position to be lost, or when the ad takes over the screen and can't be closed, or when you get a malicious ad that starts running JavaScript that starts opening alerts and redirects you, all of these things simply don't happen with AMP.

You very clearly said "aren't making any money of the AMP'd version of their pages" and that's not true.

They can put ads, they can even put analytics and links back to their main site. The brand lift they get from all the views also has value.
I'm not sure that's true. The GOP platform does not mention universal healthcare or anything like it, that's simply not a top priority. The healthcare-related planks are:

- Restoring Patient Control and Preserving Quality in Healthcare

- Protecting Individual Conscience in Healthcare

- Better Care and Lower Costs: Tort Reform

- Advancing Research and Development in Healthcare

- Putting Patients First: Reforming the FDA

Freedom of choice, high quality, affordability, and limited regulations are the goals. I don't think they're against universal coverage, but as a party it is not a main focus.

The Democratic platform healthcare section begins with "Securing Universal Health Care:
Democrats believe that health care is a right, not a privilege". Their priorities are:

- Securing Universal Health Care

- Supporting Community Health Centers

- Reducing Prescription Drug Costs

- Enabling Cutting-Edge Medical Research

- Combating Drug and Alcohol Addiction

- Treating Mental Health

- Supporting Those Living with Autism and their Families

- Securing Reproductive Health, Rights, and Justice

- Ensuring Long-Term Care, Services, and Supports

- Protecting and Promoting Public Health

- Ending Violence Against Women

- Preventing Gun Violence

The main goals are universal coverage, public funding, affordability, opposing discrimination, and a couple specific areas of focus. Some of this overlaps with the Republican platform, but this is clearly a very different set of goals, and I think universal care is the most significant difference.
This is cool - it's like yarn for python! :)
We need tools to help developers build fast websites. If all websites were as fast as AMP and Instant Articles, these platforms would become obsolete. It is in our hands as developers to take back control and make the web as decentralised as possible.

I know, and I'm saying that's more so the case for marijuana than alcohol. I've been smoking weed recreationally since college and still enjoy doing so, but the only time Ive done it more than once a week for an extended period of time was during an inordinately stressful time at work a few years ago (right before I ended up quitting and taking a sabbatical to travel). Alcohol is ubiquitous and easy to get, so it's by far the most common for self-medicating many things, but in the hypothetical we're talking about availability isn't relevant.

> Also, wouldn't your reasoning allow the government to avoid any allegations of 4th amendment violations by pointing to the NSA computer that does the actual scanning?

That's assuming the scanning never results in any information being conveyed to a person or recorded anywhere someone might eventually read it. That wouldn't provide much use to the government.

> None of that is true for many types of digital information held by third parties.

That depends on the third party. Not all email providers do that. And if scanning your email to target advertising was the determinant of whether the government could read it without a warrant, email providers would stop doing that or people would stop using them.

And then wouldn't it change based on whether the scanning is done client side or server side?

> Arguably, most clear-text online traffic falls in the latter bucket.

That puts a different spin on the whole encryption debate. If not encrypting traffic allows the government to read it without a warrant, a government encryption ban takes on a whole new meaning.

And the traffic increasingly is encrypted. Hosts are increasingly using TLS for HTTP and SMTP.
