Any place i can eyeball this upgrade script first?

Incidentally, Im curious to know (to try and learn) how do you guys test this kind of stuff? do you have lots of different databases saved over that you try this kind of a major db upgrade on?
Old media is still producing the content. Netflix doesn't own lots, or cameras, or catering trucks. This is predominantly a change to financing and a change to what type of shows get produced. It's not a change to who produces them.
> Russia certainly tried to influence the election but if it had been Obama running (or anyone charismatic) instead of Clinton it wouldn't have mattered; Trump would have lost by a huge EC margin.

While I don't agree with a great deal of the rest of your assertions, this stands out to me as the important one. If the Democrats had run almost anyone other than Hillary Clinton, they would have likely won.

They ran Hillary Clinton.
Why are there ads on cable tv? Why can't they just charge tv subscribers the whole amount and get rid of ads on tv? If netflix can do it, why can't tv do the same?
anyone know why they dont have a fail-over mode that will just keep the same routes as the previous week? Then at least you'd just have underbooked-overbooked flights but the network would keep running.

> the time for that is over

That's a talking point of Trump supporters, but a moment's thought shows that it's not remotely true. It seems to assume that people only participate in democracy by voting and then politicians rule on their own recognizance during their terms, almost as if voters were electing kings/queens.

In a democracy, politicians are responsive to voters' desires 365 days/year; you can call them, write them, meet with them, protest them, and if you pay any attention to democratic politics, you know it has a serious effect (along with passively collected information such as survey results).

Second, protesting government is a major part of democracy. The March on Washington led by Martin Luther King had nothing to do with an election. The U.S. Constitution's Bill of Rights protects it, saying "Congress shall make no law ... abridging ... the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

I don't remember the Republicans having the same attitude at all about Obama; they resisted all the time in every way possible, setting records in Congress for obstructionism, buying guns, etc. Vladimir Putin seemed to start this talking point; perhaps it's true for him, but he knows little about democratic government.
I would say I'm neither a night person nor a morning person. I'm an "8 hours a night person". So, for me, when I go to sleep ends up being the hard proxy for when I wake up.

The last two weeks I've been trying to wake up with the sunrise along with my wife. She wanted to start waking up earlier, and is a horrible snoozer. So, I wake up (I have a good internal clock so I can tell myself to "wake" at a certain time and usually do), and then I get out of bed and open the blinds. This gets my wife up and gets me moving.

My morning ritual right now entails me waking up, getting my dog on her leash, and walking to Groundwork coffee on Main Street in Santa Monica. It's about a 15 minute walk from my house, depending on how often my dog feels like stopping.

I get an iced coffee (preferred beverage of choice in all weather conditions) and then walk down to the beach, which is a block away from their location. There's a small hill with some benches which overlooks the ocean and, if it's not a smoggy day in LA, a clear view of the Santa Monica mountains and Malibu. I'll sit there for an indefinite period of time and just take in the scenery, and observe the people walking nearby on the beach, or watch the waves on the ocean.

When I was working (I'm currently 'funemployed' as part of some time off between ventures), I would often take morning calls from this spot or respond to any emails that came in from the east coast since I went to sleep. My personal favorite was to coordinate this time with a daily meeting I had with some other peers from other departments. It was a general coordination meeting that didn't require any prep or meaningful energy, but was filled with some of my favorite people on the planet. It was my daily chance to talk to some of my friends spread far and wide.

I then walk home along the beach, either down on the bike path area or up on the nearest road. Sometimes I'll listen to a podcast or a book on tape. Other times I'll walk in silence. I try to be receptive to where my mood takes me.

My therapist back in Boston helped me learn how to sleep more effectively through a series of routines before bed. It turned out, for me, that bookending the start and ends of my days with routines proved valuable and welcome. As with all routines, I do add small variations from time to time to keep things fresh and reduce complacency, but I am fairly consistent.

I have nothing wrong with ads, though my viewpoint of ads is they need to target `me` instead of `them`. Eg... 6700K Is now for sale for $200AUD or 1080p is for sale for bargain prices!

Though most of the ad's I see have a handsome margin added to the product that I neither want nor if I did I could find somewhere on ebay cheaper.
I confirm that is indeed megabit per month. (324 gigabytes, or about $0.93 per gigabyte)

Yeah, harsh. But hey, it's black market internet access.
No, because no-one wants a home AP that only works if it's pointed at you.

You can buy directional APs if you want, but they're usually used for outdoor point-to-point links, or as sector antennas. e.g. I just installed one of these today: https://routerboard.com/RBSXTG-2HnD in a place that needed a signal far from where the AP was. Usually patch antennas (like this product) are preferred over Yagis for microwave links due to their smaller footprint, and capability of dual polarization in a single package.

Better is if your indoor AP can transceive in more of a "pancake" shape, like this: https://routerboard.com/RBOmniTikU-5HnD Note that's almost the same gain as this home-grown Yagi (7.5 dBi vs. 8.5 dBi) but with a more useful directionality.

Yeah, this is another waste of time.

I believe Rockchips have closed source drivers on their device tree, so forget ever running a truly open source distro or building your own. I'll gladly be corrected about that.

The Mali GPU drivers are closed source binary blobs, so you're forever stuck on the vendor's old kernel, or you can run a later kernel but never play games or watch video.

There's a reason the Raspberry Pi is still outselling all competitors with hardware half as powerful - it's open source and it works.
Cable originally didn't have ads. They just discovered they could put ads in and nobody cancelled their subscriptions.
There were about 100 reported incidents out of something like 2.5 million Note 7 manufactured, so whatever the defect is it is not a common one and thus hard to find and confirmed. Not to mention most of the phones with problem burned so you can't "debug" them directly.
They can, but they don't want to remove revenue streams when enough people are willing to pay for it.
This is a multi-day competition. Players may coordinate in each round, but I mean to coordinate in each day. If you only coordinate over a short horizon then the complexity of your deception is lower. So for example, all players adopt a common feigned weakness on a given day, and let the computer believe those behaviors is part of a pattern to exploit. Then on the second day, up the bets and stop the feign.

This happens in algorithmic trading, where traders would make a large number of low-valued, bad bets to mislead the algo. Then bet big and go the other direction.

Then really, Google's done you a solid. Now everyone using your site will know it's not as secure as their bank, and therefore, when their creds for your sites are stolen, and they get their identity stolen as a result, you can just say "Hey, everything told you it wasn't secure, not my problem"...

An idea so thoroughly rebuked by countless studies around the US and the world as to be effectively useless. And anyone in a law-making position who with a straight face pleads ignorance to this deserves ridicule.
I'm gonna go and say Bullshit on this one. Python, C, C++ all had promotion from usage more than anything else and the same is true of Golang. It is a language that attracts a community.

I actually specifically use this tool because I have been unable to do this through Hammerspoon without resorting to AppleScript GUI scripting of the preferences pane. This is much more elegant, though I would definitely love it if this functionality were manageable through Lua scripts.
nice username.

I don't think it's the end. People were inspired yesterday, the crowds realized they have the numbers and the passion to fight back. People were taking action, finding their local organizations, learning how to inform their representatives, and even planning the next protests already.

We're going to see more and more of this.

We will also see more "Alternative Facts" and PR campaigns from the White House, closely following Dugin's handbook (dismiss, distract, distort, and dismay).
Well so long as Soros keeps footing the bill in the shadows for all these "grassroots" organizations...
This, and the Mali driver is closed source, so if it doesn't do what you want, you're screwed.
4 W (36 dBm), and the 8.5 dBi gain of this homemade Yagi puts you over that if you're operating at 1 W (30 dBm) max transmit power (as some home routers do).
Do you have a source on that 3% figure? I believe that only approximately 3% of Swiss watches are COSC[1] certified but I was also under the impression that all Rolex watches are COSC certified.

I know Rolex by itself makes up over 50% of annual COSC watches and since Rolex themselves never reveal sales figures I've heard that people use the official annual COSC certification numbers as a barometer to how Rolex is doing.

> the FBI letter probably cost her the election by slightly depressing turnout.

Of course it's hard to point to one factor in such a complex, real world situation, But look at a chart of Clinton's poll numbers; she was comfortably ahead, and as soon as Comey's letter came out, her number dropped like a rock and never recovered.

> It is really embarrassing that the majority of the country votes D and the Rs have control over the government.

Note that the Democrats have won the popular vote in 5 of the last 6 national elections. Other than George W Bush's second election in 2004, the GOP hasn't won a nationwide majority since 1988.
Bjarne Stroustrup rates his own C++ knowledge as 7/10, if that makes you feel better.
What does "the whole amount" mean?

Think about what your local cable company charges for HBO. They have no advertising and programming is pretty good. Back in the day it was $20/month, now it's something close to $10/mo, right?

What would your cable bill look like if every single channel was $10/month?

Old media is still producing the content. Netflix doesn't own lots, or cameras, or catering trucks.

Those aren't the the part of old media that people are dissatisfied with. Who decides what gets produced? How do advertisers affect the decisions? Isn't that what is changing? Also, aren't the decisions at that level what viewers tend to be dissatisfied with?

> That's why we can't "just plant trees": we'd have to be continuously planting new trees.

Yes, that's the point. Plant trees, cut them down when mature and plant new ones. Use the harvested trees to make cross laminated timber and other engineered wood products and use these to replace concrete and steel (which also release CO2 during production). As long as the timber doesn't burn or rot the carbon is stored permanently.

A normal presidency would see these protests and exercise caution. This is not a normal presidency, so I feel as though we're going to see a continuous escalation in response.

I just navigated through Apple's maze to cancel my HBO subscription. I realized that, after months had gone by, it just represented a crap value next to Netflix.
I can't agree more: PhD shows that you went through the pain of scientific training, you can however train yourself to science in different manners.

Start from the start though: epistemology is grossly underrated, but the scientific method (aka: calling bullshit) is my most valuable tool.
The aim of the AI isn't to adopt to poor strategies, rather to play an approximate optimal strategy itself. It's aiming to be unexploitable, the further the other players deviate from optimal, the more it wins. It's EV (expected value) comes from the other players not playing optimally, it doesn't care about exploiting individual weaknesses.
it's certainly great news that studios can make money producing high quality content.

But this isn't Netflix producing high quality content while the studios lose out. It's Netflix paying the studios for quality content.
In some cases it is long-run cheaper to buy the cheaper choice, other times it turns out cheaper in the long run to buy the expensive choice --however, this information is not easy to ascertain at the time of purchase and takes too much time for the average shopper to take into consideration when making a purchase.

I'll pay for expensive jeans which will last over the cheap jeans which don't last a year. On the other hand, the fashion industry has a lot to answer for for making people always wanting the new and the trendy, even when it impacts the environment negatively (one pair of boots lasting 10 years vs one lasting a year, for example).

Everything Rupert Murdoch has ever touched in his entire Mr. Burns life reeks worse than a Russian oligarch's toe jam, if you were curious about my opinion.

In this case, it bears repeating that Trump lost the overall vote, and lost women's votes 54-41%.

The country is a democracy, not an elected dictatorship. Voters and their desires don't disappear the day after the election. Republicans took resistance of Obama's presidency to record levels; only their propagandists can say with a straight face that those who oppose Trump should be quiet for the next four years.
Lack of competitors? Now that Netflix has seemingly accepted having a terrible selection and is focusing on producing their own content, they're just one of many. Their distribution mechanism isn't even that unique (subscription over the Internet) with the likes of HBO, Hulu, et al.
Also `pipenv install -r requirements.txt` is supported, for importing.

This notice is something like a "campaign" in English, which starts now and lasts for one year until March 2018. The assumption here is that these issues would have been addressed by then.

The timing March 2018 does not carry significant value here, it just means the campaign period is slightly longer than one year.

Netflix is such a great service, I'd say they are the ones that are truly represent the disruption Silicon Valley dreams of so often in, in the positivest sense. Shame the world around them is less than great. Their existence in the US is being hampered by petty, extortionist ISPs who couldn't tell the truth if their lives depended on it and by dumb licensing and copyright laws. Their catalogue abroad is often less than 10% of the American one (my country has 12% of it! - according to https://www.finder.com/netflix-usa-vs-world-content). I remember, when they finally expanded to my country, I quickly signed up and the first thing I did was search for House of Cards, just to see no results. It was very disappointing, because their original content is really good, in fact good enough that they created the market in which everybody wants to be Netflix, so they are all trying to create quality original programming, and that's a competition I love seeing.

I used to be a Netflix subscriber via VPN, before they officially opened here, but it just became cumbersome and risky to connect (remember the controversy surrounding sketchy Chrome VPN plugins?). Unfortunately, right now I don't have an active subscription at the moment, sadly, because I finished watching most of the things that interested me from their catalogue in 4 months. Kind of a shame because the company that cracks international expansion first is usually the one to stay in those markets.

On the streaming music front, aside from some sketchier ones, Apple Music was one of the first to open up shop here, and I'm still using it with no plans to ever abandon it because it's a great service -- not only that, but Apple decided to offer regionalised pricing, so their is priced very fairly (to compare and contrast, their subscription costs a little more than twice the amount than here, but the country I live in being a poorer one, I think it's perfectly acceptable). On top of that, they have their original content. Even if Spotify managed to come to this market, I wouldn't switch. There was a time when I desperately tried to pay for their service but they did not let me, now I wouldn't, because I already have superior service.

Edit: I can't stand advertising on services, the ads on most American TV channels and services are so bad that I have to stop using them from time to time. It's not exactly the norm in my country, but there was a time when I thought our ads were crazy annoying! Some of it is extra annoying, like YouTube's, I would love to get YouTube Red, but it's not available here, even tho Google introduced some really crappy business practices to try and steer users towards it.
Really long. It will still have to get lucky, or at least avoid being unlucky. This is why amateurs routinely crash the final table instead of just pros.
