That's the same thing as incremental compilation.
This is how it's supposed to work isn't it? If the wages fall so low that it's no longer worthwhile for people to do the work, people will stop doing it. If the work still needs to be done, people will have to pay an amount that workers are willing to accept.
I suspect they said the same thing about cars in the old days, and mass production kind of papers over those little differences.

Besides no one mass produces foundation slabs which would vary on frost depth, they mass produce kitchens and living rooms and bedrooms.

Also for sheer cost of truck shipment reasons most houses would be manufactured near where they stand, perhaps across a state line maybe two small ones at most, sure.

I would agree with the "its mostly a money grab by the system" as being accurate. $25K of wear and tear on that planning commission rubber stamp, uh huh. Cable company can connect service for free in a couple hours of labor but the electric company is required for an occupancy permit, and they know it, and they think they can squeeze $10K out for new service installation, uh huh.
Prior to world war I, the economy was pretty globalized and numerous e.g. german companies had a big US presence, and vice versa. Trade did not prevent a war then...
I don't think the answer to the DEA's misguided paternalism is more paternalism. The inconsistency you've hit on is real, but the solution we should be fighting for is to make more things legal, not illegal. I don't want the government dictating how much I'm allowed to enjoy myself or how fast I'm allowed to die (nothing should be outlawed solely because it has a chance of shortening my lifespan). I deserve the right to choose what I put in my own body. I deserve the right to be as healthy or unhealthy as I want to be.
No, I am saying saw's like sextants are simply less needed now days. Take changing a tire, a classic man thing. Well run flats, pressure sensors, and cellphones mean people very rarely have any need to change a tire on their own.

Growing up I did plenty of home construction like putting up a wall and adding drywall etc. But, if I was going to put up shelving in a closet I would go to IKEA.
Interesting that you think it's insignificant. A lot of group photos are taken at 3 to 5 meters away and it's immediately obvious who's looking directly into the camera and who isn't...
There's a better alternative to stock photos in ad campaigns

Poland is actually the site of one of the biggest uses of personal firearms in international conflict. The Jews held off the Nazis for about 5 months.

I'd much rather lose a petty economic rivalry to China than win a war against them.
EU was built on the ECSC which has been created with preventing war as one of its primary goals:

> The ECSC was first proposed by French foreign minister Robert Schuman on 9 May 1950 as a way to prevent further war between France and Germany. He declared his aim was to "make war not only unthinkable but materially impossible" which was to be achieved by regional integration, of which the ECSC was the first step. The Treaty would create a common market for coal and steel among its member states which served to neutralise competition between European nations over natural resources, particularly in the Ruhr.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Coal_and_Steel_Commun...

it is a spectacular success by this measure. there were other factors contributing, of course, but free trade is the primary one.
Not even wrong. (In other words: "[strong opinion], am I right?" All you could get from that is dis/agreement, but I see nothing that could be assigned a truth value.)
More accurate TL;DR: It's a joke.
I have to admit that I don't quite understand "image scaling as a service". Scaling is almost certainly a case where shipping the image over a network is significantly more costly than just doing the scaling locally?
The solution then is to heavily incentivize the middle and lower classes to acquire capital other than owner-occupied housing.
I assume it is because financing is profitable and locks drivers into a work commitment. This doesn't necessarily imply that it makes long term financial sense for the driver.
Could H-1B be more effective? Yes. It could definitely be more fair to the visa holder and do a better job of attracting and retaining the most skilled workers.

But I also think it's totally wrong to say we don't have a technology labor shortage. The best evidence of this are the salary numbers for people with math and science degrees. It's not because physics and math suddenly got more valuable. It's because tech is so starved for labor it's hiring people from different disciplines to do the job and it's actually brought the average salaries in line with CS and engineering graduates.

Also, even if we had an adequate national labor supply, the job opportunities are not distributed proportional to population density. The density of technology jobs is highly concentrated in a few parts of the country, but we are producing qualified engineers everywhere. And not everyone is willing or able to move.
Thank you so much for writing this valuable long advice. I'll remember what you advised. Anyway, I have questions:

1. Any example about general and abstract topic? Is it like Economy, Psychology?

2. "... plan to do that your whole profesionnal life! You're in to be studing for 50 years!". What does it mean?

I apologize for my ignorance. How do people know of this stuff? Do the branches of military publish peer reviewed papers?
Of course it is not an energy negative. The production of ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen gas is an exothermic process. At room temperature it's even a spontaneous process.

The reason we need these complicated processes is the massive activation energy of the reaction, making it extremely slow uncatalyzed.

These are professional chemists, publishing in a serious journal. Did you really think they didn't take into account the basic energy balance of their equation?
If only that were always true: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Hood_plan

In Austin we paid $406 million in state recapture in 2016. That's one third of AISD's budget for the year. That money doesn't come back to us, to be clear. I wouldn't be surprised if something similar were in place in other states.

In addition, I believe the state has plenty of laws that control what each county can do tax-wise, I'm too lazy to find them all right now. My point is that the state matters a lot.

(Note: I'm not saying that I'm against any of this, necessarily.)
I can attest that this is true for mechanical/automotive industry.

I'm not an economist, but from what I've read, running a trade deficit isn't necessarily a bad thing. The US ran trade deficits through the 80's and 90's while the economy was booming.

And there is never a good time for war between two nuclear powers.
I like C#, I wrote it for 2 years, but stopped because Microsoft makes IE. Microsoft can die as a company, and I would smile watching them die.
He's not making a threat of any kind, he's making an empirical observation that countries that trade with each other tend to go to war less.
A while back I looked at a (HN formed?) startup www.paperspace.io which offered something similar. Ended up not using it due to security requirements as I wanted to host a proprietary process on it but I loved the concept.
Thanks for your detailed feedback on this, I appreciate it!
Thanks, Do you know how long it might take to get that approved?
This is pedantic, pointless and wrong.
They grepped the stdlib, this unsafe is already in a library.
That is really good to know about Cloudflare. CDN cost an important thing for anyone to take into consideration when they price their free/paid tiers and something that not everyone does.

I always try to price fee tiers so that one paid customer pays for about 100 or more free users and aim for at least 5% conversion of free to paid. It's not a hard-fast rule but a good starting point. If I can't hit that (even after crippling the free tier) I just drop the free tier altogether and make it a free trial instead.
The thing is, many of us don't care if Twitter has our messages for analysis. That's their problem, not ours.

Marketing needs shouldn't hamper technical progress.
Not quite, because the rules are enforced by the compiler.

In C++ the rules are enforced by optional tooling that most developers don't use.

At CppCon 2015, only 1% of the audience acknowledged using such tools at Herb's talk about the core guidelines.

Yes, we shouldn't forget that this one is the second globalization, not the first, as you say, the first was before the First World War.

I'm reading now "Global Capitalism: It's Fall and Rise in the Twentieth Century" by Jeffry A. Frieden, and it's fascinating to see how history really rhymes.
Scarcity leads to higher prices and in the case of the high cost of housing in NYC, DC, Boston, London, SF, LA (and perhaps much of CA) is political use of zoning density restrictions to create artificial scarcity which benefits land owners at the expense of renters or those who wish to buy a house. This is a form of "rent seeking" which creates a market failure or market inefficiency. Because of these regulations Donald Trump is far wealthier than he would be in an efficient market and is a major, major source of inequality.

I recently read that in London which has a green belt used to create land scarcity, the cost of land as a proportion of housing has risen from about 2 percent to 75 percent of housing costs.

In NYC, taxi medallions were valued at $1.2 million because government created artificial scarcity limiting medallions to 13,000 for a population of 8.5 million. Taxi drivers who leased cabs paid high costs because of the medallion scarcity and passengers would pay much higher fares.
Then Uber/Lyft/Gett/Via came along and relieved the politically induced scarcity. Now, not only are bailable cabs much, much more available, but prices have come down, sometimes substantially. The price of the taxi medallions decreased from $1.2 million to $500,000 to $700,000.

Happily, the fix to high housing costs does not cost any money. It simply needs laws reversed that created artificial scarcity of land. This would require millennials (and others) to get an education that teaches them at least the most basic of economics and then to vote out of office politicians who are for the zoning density restrictions and the high cost of housing.

David Ricardo in reference to combatting the "Corn Laws" of Britain first discussed "rent seeking" -- the use of politics to create market inefficiencies and scarcity benefiting special interests. In that context, there was an import tax on any grain including wheat to make bread. This lead to a higher cost of food. British farmers would receive more money for their grain which enabled the landowners of the farms to charge a higher lease for their land. So, workers were forced to subsidize landholders because of the politically induced scarcity "rent seeking" of grain. David Ricardo, a wealthy broker, joined Parliament to reverse the Corn Laws.
> At what point does playing smart become fraud?

when you use an active device that essentially guarantees you will win. Elsewhere in the thread someone quoted the Nevada regulations that explicitly state this. I'm sure each state has them now. Had they arrested these guys and didn't find an iPhone with custom software, or a confession that they were remitting their winnings back to Russia, they probably wouldn't be able to charge them with anything (but they could still kick them out of all casinos).
> unavoidable

It's not possible to tell, this question is far too broad. And "unavoidable" is a very strong statement.

> And why is there a need to "defend" the idea that it isn't?

I'm not; I'm saying that the rust-lang/rust repo is going to have a much higher percentage of unsafe than a random Rust repo. Most applications have no unsafe, most libraries have little to no unsafe. Some libraries have a lot of unsafe.

That is, you chose the compiler as something intended to be representative, I don't think that's accurate.
There are still neighborhoods in Queens, Jersey, and Brooklyn that are under 20m from Manhattan and still woefully underdeveloped. Also, that article was specifically about FiDi which is like that because it's so old so the streets aren't wide enough.
Awesome work! I have a suggestion/question. Why did you chose the pattern

/:options/:image

over

/:image/:options

? Seems the latter would be more user friendly.
S/he is NOT claiming that "open source is always good", which is the straw man you are trying to knock down.

claim: "source code is [not necessarily] tantamount to death"

you provide several counterexamples where (it seems) you think it would be tantamount to death.

But regardless of your number of examples, there only needs to be one case where it's not tantamount to death for the author's point to be valid.

I would think that having 2 PRNGs and then switching between them would ruin this strategy.

Obviously this would cost money for retrofitting, but all new slots could employ a new design, getting rid of this problem over a few years.

Not a perfect solution, but at least it's a medium to long-term fix.
If you're going to do policy advocacy, it's a good idea to do it before the EO gets issued.
Actually - it does mention it, but at the very bottom with a short explanation and a link. I have a first edition of the book, so I agree with your statement - but do the later editions (or the latest for that matter) still carry the ugliness? Perhaps they do...?
Can a US-based business sell products and services to a Chinese one? At least, can they do it directly and not through some Chinese subsidiary?
I followed the development of perl 6 for a bit. I was quite impressed for a while, as Larry Wall disolved most of the warts, corner cases, and ad-hocisms of perl 5 into a language which was cleaner and more abstract. Then he used the cognitive space thus provided to load up the langauge with as many features as he could pack in, and I gave up on it.
>Ma seems to be saying to the United States: Continue running trade deficits with China, subsidizing China's ill-conceived domestic social and economic policies, or war

Subsidizing? The US (and others) spends X in China, and Chinese workers and factories sweat their ass off and give back products that the US companies then sell for 2X to 100X.

That's the exact opposite of subsidizing. It's the US that can't produce anymore, or can't produce cheaply enough and with enough tolerances, that found a solution to its issues.

And if you count for the trade deficit, it's China that holds US debt and thus "subsidies" the US.
It's already in the list.
Probably a Scandinavian one. I've heard that forming an LLC there requires filling a single form. Maybe their taxation & insurance is that simple as well.

After researching similar matters in my own country (Greece), where you have to juggle dozens of forms in as many offices and constantly file taxes every month (or 3), I've given up on ever being self-employed.
"Correctness" is not very useful in image processing, it's all about perception and performance.
To be fair, that's my only hope as well. There doesn't seem to be almost anyone on this miserable little planet who doesn't bend when they receive some very particular phone calls. It's disgusting and discouraging.

An Interview with Bill Gates and Warren Buffett
Shipping companies don't own the containers. Solar panels would get broken when they were transferred to shore. Panels and cabling would add more weight to the highest level of the cargo stacks: the worst place for ship stability. And even if you covered the entire top level with solar panels it still wouldn't provide enough propulsion power to be worth the expense.
The money you pay for a place you rent is gone. The money you pay for a place you own you keep. Since it's your place (and not a cost saving corporation's place), pay a bit more for quality stuff that doesn't break.
Agreed, though the FSF explicitly chose gplv3 over an agpl style license.

My two cents:

The irony is that the GPL was meant to protect users' freedom, and cloud services are a giant unforeseen loophole in the GPL that is even more abusive of user freedoms than old school proprietary software (NSA, ad trackers, forced upgrades, censorship, mass deletions, etc).

There is more money in closed source centralized services, and the FSF was afraid to stand up for the principles it was founded on.

I hope the industry eventually rebuilds itself on the AGPL (and BSL + AGPL for active, commercially developed stuff), but the fight will be at least as hard as mainstreaming the gpl was.
Depends on the algorithm. Many encryption schemes are vulnerable if you know the cyphertext and can guess the plain text.

This is one of those cases where if they knew what they where doing the PRNG would be fine as is. So, you can't just and wave some undefined encryption scheme and assume they will implement it correctly.
Unspecific question. There are many reasons. We have seen many of the weaknesses of in the last financial crisis. The EU is just horrible set up economically. The Euro as a EU project is the crown achievement of bad economics has been a total and absolut disaster, the biggest since the Inter-War gold standard. There are many other problems, with debt, enforcement of debt collection and so on. The bad EU setup was totally unclear about how debt management worked and all these problem had to be (and jet have to be) solved on a running system, instead of using a good design in the first place.

The EU was used often to push bad laws on countries that they had internally rejected, but the people against it could not stop in on European level (Germany Vorratsdatenspeicherung for example). The EU is not democratic enough, both internally and the way it was created.

One can of course argue that many of these problems can be solved with more centralization, but that 'solution' has lots of problems by itself also.

I would image a EU should be a club that agrees on trade and the movements of goods. There is no reason to handle every single issue under the EU umbrella, I would rather see independent organisation that deal with certain issues. The EU is like a hammer, and every single problem looks like a nail to it.
