Your usage of the word subsidize is strange. I might as easily say that I subsidize my local grocery store. Except that a much more natural way to say the same thing is that I buy food there.

We have a trade deficit with China because they make so many affordable products that Americans want to buy.

Of course much of that wealth ends up in the hands of the Chinese government, just as the US taxes corporations here. I would probably describe our government's use of most of those funds as "ill-conceived." We certainly wage more wars than China.

Why so belligerent?

If it's trade or war, it's China's problem too.

It is untrue that >90% of cardiovascular deaths are attributable to overweight. In fact, if you look at the Framingham model for predicting heart attacks, obesity is not a feature (other than its indirect effects on blood pressure and diabetes).

The main cause of cardiovascular disease is hypertension, which is 100% treatable at very low cost and with very high safety. I haven't checked the numbers lately, but it's not too far off to note that only 50% of hypertension is diagnosed and only 50% of patients take their medications.

So, the lapse is not in medical science -- we know what to do -- but in healthcare delivery.
I guess. The way I viewed it Japan made a move to protect their markets. But you could be right.
Suspension of disbelief, getting detached from the real world, yes, even manipulation are all perfectly fine as long as you consent to them.

Ohh but there were free drinks and the lighting was just so and it made me feel so good -- so clearly defrauding the place that made me feel that way, even when I rationally knew that was what was going to happen, is perfectly OK.

Are you also OK with stealing popcorn at the cinema because they manipulate you into feeling scared/happy/sad/whatever?

This is why we can't have nice things.
I have done the transfer. It is not difficult if you find a company willing to pay for lawyers to handle it for you. But yes, if you are only in the first phase of your green card application you will be set back.

And I promise you, there are companies that pay a fair amount to H1B workers. I have worked for four of them myself. I don't know what kind of companies you work for or where in the country you are, but they exist.
Which leads back to unions as the next best fit. If developers and the software industry don't want to deal with professional organizations and professional certifications then unions are the next best option for collective action.

Scrolling randomly through the document my eyes almost popped when I saw
[Level 3, Chapter 16: Performance]:

A pointer to a collection of objects of unknown number. These functions
should use the VLA notation:

void func(size_t n, double a[n]);

I had no idea this was possible. Do compilers actually do anything with this
information or is it just informative?

EDIT: I didn't get a warning out of gcc

#include <stddef.h>

int last(size_t n, int a[n]) {
return a[n-1];
}

int main() {
int a[] = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4};
size_t siz = sizeof(a) / sizeof(a[0]);
return last(siz+1, a);
}

Compile:

Still, it's a neat idea from a documentation point of view, and GNU-like

A bit before is more explanation of on the arr[static ?] notation. I was
aware of this and usually prefer to use (Clang/GCC) function annotations to
indicate NULL-ness of pointers and such, but I see the advantage in some

lot of cool things.
You have to open your contributions when you build upon GPL'd software, not when you use it. The GPL is very much centered around the end user, not programmers who build things. We often talk about the GPL as programmers and forget it was really built to protect the average joe from being locked out.

It's most free for end users.

> Isn't that the anti definition of net neutrality?

Yes, zero-rating is a direct affront to net neutrality: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/02/zero-rating-what-it-is...

But I don't think that we're going to see many successes in net neutrality at the federal level anytime soon - the fight really has to be carried out at the state level.
And when that's the goal, a more controlling license like copyleft makes a lot of sense. Especially in the case of a codebase from a failed startup that is no longer building a business around it though, a permissive license makes more sense.

Honestly he is not evil but he is unstable and childish. We should not normalize anything he says. It is dangerous to allow hime to be normalized.

Actually it depends on the type of visa. If you are on a tourist visa, you are not allowed to work. You forgot to mention US may be because it's your home country, but it is illegal to work in US on a B1 visa.
Edit: also, if you are in US on work visa, you are supposed to declare any income you receive in your home country, and you are taxed on that money, even if the home country already taxed it.
It's not clear. The Rust core team proposed such a thing, but it was resoundingly rejected by the community. There are some people working on projects like this, http://github.com/brson/stdx for example.
The C919 is not a large airliner. The capacity of 160 people is smaller than the most sold single-aisle aircrafts (A320/B737-8). It's a large regional aircraft, competing with the C300 and will mainly be used for feeder or to serve small cities.

I don't want to downplay the importance of the release, but this aircraft is not a competitor for the duopoly between Airbus and Boeing for passenger aircrafts >200 pax. The market this aircraft operates in has far more competitors.

The real revolution could begin if they are able to deliver a real competitor for the A320/B737-8, which seem to be the cheapest to fly <6hrs, considering all costs.

The action that subjects you to the remote network interaction restriction at the heart of the AGPL is "modifying" the covered work.

Modification is defined exactly the same in the AGPL as in the GPL. I don't think putting a reverse proxy in front of an AGPL app means much of anything in terms of either the letter or the spirit of the license.

Mongo's separation of Apache-licensed drivers from the server is about making it so that applications don't have to link to the AGPL'd server code, thereby avoiding "modifying" it. Without a modification, the network interaction section isn't triggered at all.
"Threat"

Lol, did you even read the article? He used it during your typical anodyne corporate speech at some event in Australia. This sentiment is as old as trade itself - "If goods don't cross borders, armies do." Ma was speaking to the unifying power of globalization and trade, not some ultimatum he was giving the Trump administration.

The marketing message might be that urban living is the only acceptable life choice solely because of the date of your birth (astrological reasoning) but apparently only a very small percentage of people are getting that message. Enough are, such that prices are out of control in the fad areas, but almost no one lives there on a nationwide basis so it doesn't matter as a national issue, which is why its not getting fixed.

A good analogy is every christmas season has "the toy" that is in insane demand that perhaps 95% of the population do not want, but the demands of an extremely vocal tiny minority always result in a human interest story on TV. Doesn't mean its important or a universal desire for all humanity, just means its good clickbait.

There's a luxury downtown apartment building a block from where I work that I acknowledge exists. Approximately 120 rental residents have gotten the message that urban is the only way to live and suburbs are passe and unstylish, and they pay five times my mortgage in rent for the "privilege". However, I live in a burb 20 miles away with an eighth of a million other people unwilling to pay five times more than our mortgage as apartment rent. And our schools are top of the line as opposed to the urban district being reported as worst in the nation. Similar, predictable street crime stats. And my burb doesn't have panhandlers lining the freeway ramps and homeless people pooping on the sidewalk, but somehow I survive the lack of those cultural attractions at my home.
Do you think that the next generations, surviving in a post-apocalyptic irradiated world, will care about the reasons that took us to war?
Is there anything that is worth the death of hundreds of millions of people? Because that's what you're advocating by saying we should go to war, throwing this word lightly like if there would be a future after war between major powers in the nuclear age.
You are missing a step. How does "Keep trading" mean that war is inevitable?

It almost certainly means that devaluation of the dollar is inevitable (the ultimate fate of any currency that runs an account deficit for long enough), but to say "war is inevitable, therefore declare war today" is ridiculous.
You'd probably need to invest substantially in antitrust litigation to get access to the raw data streams Bloomberg relies on.
This may or may not be true, but it doesn't matter from a higher-level viewpoint. If you want the olds to have less wealth and influence, why not consider how to make your app serve them so they'll give you their money?

Further, let's take a look at the dying generation. They were born into a postwar era of booming suburbia and raygun gothic architecture. Women were allowed in the workplace in a non-secretary or switchboard operator role (which took a total war effort to allow in the first place). Sexism remained, but progress had been made. Racism was the quasilegal norm, but boomers pushed the social revolution that included integration and a number of de jure protections. Now, at the end of their lives, America is less openly racist than it has been at any point in history. It may not seem like it, because of the G.I.F.T. giving jerks a megaphone so they can spout their bile, but we don't commonly move out of a neighborhood because black folks move into it anymore. The young generation doesn't care, the old generation was raised to care but doesn't say it out loud, the dead generation cared and said so. Social change takes time. We have legal abortion now, too.

Every generation should put its children into a better world than they had themselves. We confer wealth, build infrastructure, preserve and gain knowledge and tools. We also try to note the sins of our fathers and try not to pass them on. This takes time, and effort, and the dying generation of boomers have run their course. Whether or not they're right about all things, it's fair to note that they're doing a lot better than their parents did, and they gave us the opportunity to do even better. In YC terms, there was clear opportunity for disruption in the social equality sector, and the olds took great strides to work on it.

I propose that _inertia_ is responsible for most of society's woes, and that the olds of any generation will show how far their children have come by contrast.

Edit: typo.
The opposite describes me and most of my friends. ;) I suppose it makes sense that suburban people meet suburban friends and urban people meet urban friends.

That said, I don't think people in urban areas would say they love crowds or noise (and I really don't think I encounter much of either in central Austin). I'm curious what you do with all of the space. The idea of loving sprawl is odd to me.

I grew up in the burbs and hate the idea of raising my kid in a place where so much of your time is spent in a car. The idea of getting a car to go anywhere or do anything crushes my soul. I think if I moved out of the city I'd mostly miss being able to walk/bike (or bus) to so many things.
Perhaps someone needs to organize a movement of large populations of progressive future thinking utopian philosophers moving to different states to more effectively rig elections in the way of a more enlightened future.

Alas, I don't think there are enough of these types to actually effectively hack elections like that.

A quick search of the inestimable comp.risks archives revealed this:

Montreal -- Daniel Corriveau said he hopes that his 'victory over the
system will give hope to others.' The computer analyst and his family received more than $620,000 [1C$ =
U$0.75], including interest, from the Montreal casino yesterday, weeks after they overcame odds of one in six billion and beat an electronic keno game three times in a row."

The author explains the following key points:

o Corriveau used an "antique 286" computer to analyse 7,000 combinations from
the keno game, [which uses an electronic pseudo-random number generator].

o Corriveau noticed that the electronic game was repeating numbers in a
predictable pattern.

o Corriveau and several family members bet on what they predicted would be due
to come up; they won three times in succession.

I had originally seen an article speculating someone power cycled a keno machine after recording the winning numbers, with the assumption or knowledge that the random number generator reseeded with a 0 on cold boot. I'm not sure if that's just me mis-remembering the details of this case, or another one altogether. If anyone has a link to the second case please let me know.

Permanent residents do not "apply" for reentry. They just need to show their green card and ID upon arriving in the U.S. Likewise, the EO did not merely delay visa applications. It denied entry, without any process, to people whose applications had already been approved and who had already received visas.

If the EO had merely delayed applications for three months pending additional procedures, courts across the country wouldn't be granting TROs to stop enforcement of it.
If they are going to be part of the global economy then they need to accept the terms of the global economy. Yea their practices are mainly harming western countries at this point, but in the future maybe it's India or Singapore that has the lead in these areas. Would you think it's alright for China to do it then?

Like it or not the global capitalist economy has to be built with some form of protection for content and IP producers. I fail to see how China's model is the 'right way of looking at things'. In fact if we all acted like China I'm guessing the global economy would collapse.

The big factor here is that casino's specifically forbid the use of devices intended to affect the outcome of the game. You go to a casino, you have to play by their rules. If not, they can argue you are attempting to defraud them.

Counting cards is a much better example of "playing smart", and it is not actually illegal - although casinos will ban any player they suspect to be counting they will likely not be charged with a crime. But once you bring a personal implement in to the situation, it very much becomes a prosecutable crime.

And technological superiority is exactly how you fight and win a war with a 1:2 manpower disadvantage... So I'm not quite sure what you're trying to get at there.
The D example is also safe. The difference is that the D example doesn't generalize (yet), whereas the Rust example does.
OTOH, the murder rate in 2015 was also the lowest in 20 years: http://nltimes.nl/2016/07/29/netherlands-murder-rate-20-year...
More of a terms of service violation. In my experience growing up in Las Vegas they really only arrested folks who used some device to physically cheat. People who worked the odds by card counting or perhaps taking advantage of an out of balance roulette wheel generally were simply banned for life (which technology and facial recognition makes much easier today apparently).

Conspiring with others to break terms of service is of course a crime, and doing so across state lines, is its own sort of nastyness. But you can see from the prison terms (2 years) it wasn't exactly a big threat to these guys.
> You still have to think about ownership, stack vs heap, when things are freed, clone vs move, and so on.

Some responses:

- ownership / clone vs move = Valid concern in any imperative language.

- stack vs heap / when things are freed = Nope. Things are freed when you no longer use them. Are you upcasting to a parent "class"? Use `Box::new(value)`. Otherwise there's no cognitive overhead.

I come from C++ and I've written quite a lot of Python. Rust feels a lot more like a typed Python than C++, memory-wise.
>I kinda like hotel and taxi regulations. I feel they keep things safe, clean and above-board.

Your feelings don't match reality. The licensed taxis I've ridden in were nasty, far worse than the unlicensed Uber cars I've ridden in. Taxi: 20-year-old P-O-S Crown Victoria. Uber: 2-year-old Mercedes

There's also plenty of rat-trap motels out there that are properly licensed. I live a couple of miles from one; people have even put videos on YouTube about how awful it is there. There's plenty of really nice hotels too, but that's because people are willing to pay double the price of the rat-trap, and those hotel chains are nation-wide and want to maintain their reputations, not because of any regulations. The only thing regulations are good for is making sure places don't burn down. And even that's iffy; generally places just burn down anyway and then someone gets punished afterwards.

Sure, I get that. But that makes it a very opinionated form of free and open. While permissive licenses like Apache and MIT do have terms, they are much more akin to saying "here is a thing I made, and I'm sharing it with whoever wants to use it and whatever they want to do with it". Whereas copyleft licenses are more like "I'll share this with you, but you have to use it in accordance with my beliefs".

While I accept that the OSI definition of "open source" is pretty much universally accepted and probably isn't going to change, I personally don't really feel like copyleft should qualify because of that level of control it exerts.
In this case you also don't have to store the images.
Simple canary releases in AWS: how and why?
Yet there is evidence that larger trade agreements that bind economies together and create some sort of codependence have a function in reducing the likelihood of going to war.

Ma is maybe guilty of conflating individual agreements between nation states and these kind of larger partnerships like Nafta, EU, Euratom etc (or not being sufficiently nuanced for effect).

Of course, these large supranational agreements (rather than trading agreements per se) seem to be what Trump is opposing.
If the data is there, and if we insist that machines need to predict trends for us based on that data, then why do we need to hire analysts for this job?
> Why would I ever want to own when I get free maintenance and don't have to worry about a down payment?

Because in fifteen years, you'll be paying 2x to 3x your current rent, but your neighbor who owns his/her place will still be paying the 1x rate you pay today.

That's why common advice is "rent for short term, buy for long term" (for various definitions of "short" and "long").

If maintenance is your sore spot, you can hire maintenance and insurance services for your own property. Unless your landlord is personally fixing your problems, that's likely exactly what he/she is doing too.
