So is there a limit on the number of people that can watch, per box?

Can I watch it with my dog?

With my friend?

With my friend and her kids?

Can I watch it during a birthday party? There will be 20 kids and their parents around, is that ok?

Can each of said parents have a conference call with their buddies to watch and discuss the game? Is there a limit on the size of the tv? Can I mount a 10x5 monitor setup so people across the street can see as well? Can I project it on that publicity board? Can I twitch my reaction to the game? Can I stream the screen? Oops.

Be creative.

The usual stealing/piracy synonym. I don't remember the name, but there was this project to have a server somewhere running rtorrent continuously, piping any downloaded torrent to /dev/null, stealing and burning money as fast as bandwidth allows it.

Ad blockers are good.

On one hand, advertising on the internet makes it possibile to have free services and websites, so that even people who can't afford a subscription can see the content and IMO is better than data mining as a source of revenue for content providers.

On the other hand, it's super-annoying.

The rise of ad blockers will make content providers introduce the possibility of paying to access the service with no ads, so that those who can afford it or care can pay to get it with no ads, and everyone else can still get it with ads.

It's not really realistic to pretend that some services don't make any money, because after a while there would be no good quality content to go to. Ad blockers are perhaps finally changing the idea that everything on the internet MUST be free, and getting people used to paying for what they want to use.

They never replaced the computers with transistors ?
I definitely agree the Node.js universe needs to take a better look at using addons. My opinion is that one should only use JS for the application logic, which requires high productivity, and only (or mostly) implement core modules as addons. It makes sense to use JS where productivity matters and to skip it where performance matters.
The issue is that other forms of supersonic propulsion, outside of jet engines, are all still in very early experimental stages, and not proven.

Engine manufacturers have spent a TON of R&D on fanjet engines and making them several orders of magnitude more efficient than the engines of 20 years ago even, but supersonic flight needs more than a fanjet - they need to look at turbojets, with afterburners etc. There is not much scope to play with with those unfortunately. What works at subsonic speeds at 30,000 feet won't at Mach 2+ at 80,000 feet.

But there are other aspects to conserving energy. When Concorde lands, then energy expended by the braking systems on the rollout is the same as that used to power an average family house for a day.

If they could improve kinetic energy recovery systems (as they do on Formula 1 cars and some electric cars), then that energy could be fed back in some way, to power on board avionics etc.

There a british company that changed engines design to decouple front and back blades; 15% fuel savings, 70% noise reduction. Apparently the design is so appealing they expect them to be used next year.
They did on most of the flight systems, but I believe I read somewhere that even on their retirement date, many of the aircraft still had tubes in the avionics bays.

A complete replacement programme was just too expensive, and what they had worked, so they stuck with it. Had Concorde been a profitable aircraft, then it might have been a different story...
I would say it is in both directions ;)

I think you are raising an interesting issue. Does Amazon, while leading the automation of the retail industry, reduce employment? Or is it a net jobs creator?

Considering the growth of its number of employees, it seems to me that currently Amazon seems to increasing employment and not reducing it. Or am I wrong and is for every new Amazon employee at least one employee fired elsewhere?
e.g. http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/get-the-government-s-han...

Obviously this isn’t a widespread problem though, and should be dealt with on a case by case basis.
I don't think it's hard to see that streaming the event on Facebook is not what the subscription is meant for.

I think it's pretty easy to discern private viewing from public viewing.

You're not allowed to distribute the content. Don't tell me that those people didn't know they weren't supposed to stream someone else's content on Facebook.

The U.S. digital ad industry is about 140 billion usd. There are about 200 million working age people to divide that over. That means 700 usd per working age person. Granted, there are many factors that you could use to tweak these numbers up or down (international influence, ad spend roi, ad company margin, wage distribution, ...), but it serves as a ballpark figure.

To get rid of online ads would therefore require either everyone paying something on the order of 700 usd per year, or a lot less ad-funded content.
Normally I would say China, because it has a strong incentive to create an automated system that censors everything the leadership wants, and that manages "citizen scores", and spies on everyone at all times.

However, I wouldn't be surprised if the U.S. intelligence agencies want to do that just as much to Americans and the whole planet, but do it in secret.

It's a common bug bear of all aircraft with swept wings designed for supersonic flight. Terribly inneficient at take off/landing speeds.

Which is why most military aircraft have to hook up to a tanker after take off to fill the tanks so they can continue on their mission. Concorde (and other passenger aircraft) don't have this luxury due to the risks involved, so I am thinking that most of the high cost of fuel vs passenger load that is being discussed in this thread is because of the voracious thirst that the plane has in the early stages.

Most supersonic aircraft are quite efficient in the cruise stage. The Lockheed SR-71 for instance, derives a fair percentage of thrust just from the shape of the airframe, so the pilots actually throttle back a little once they reach Mach 2+!
Yeah. But for a function with parameters there needs to be a way to associate values with parameters. There are different ways to do that, but even a static global would be accessed by address.
Why is Rx so huge? What does it give you that Promises dont?
This article repeats the canard that Amazon has been selling ebooks at a "loss", using this as a key example for its thesis. In actuality, Amazon wanted to discount ebooks, but the big publishers wanted no discounts so they could maintain ebook prices higher than paperbacks generally. Take the example in the article, where the publisher set an ebook price at $12.99. The standard publishing contract required a retailer to pay the publishing company about 50% of this amount, or about $6.50. Amazon paid approximately this royalty, and retailed for $9.99, making a gross profit of about $3.49 per unit. This is clearly not selling the item at a loss. The author of the article, claiming to be an expert on business, thinks that any discount from list price is selling at a loss - in other words, the article author, who claims to propose a better way to approach a fundamental part of business law (antitrust) doesn't understand the first thing about retail business. Discounts are not selling at a loss, unless the retailer sells for less than its cost.

I suppose you could try to make some argument that it cost Amazon more than $3.50 a ebook over and above the cost of the product itself, but the author makes no effort to do so. And Amazon clearly has not been selling its products below cost generally, though in a business of its size, of course its likely that there are some exceptions. Consider, if Amazon really was selling books and other products below its cost, losing money on each transaction, where would the money come from to invest in all the new businesses like AWS, production of films and TV shows, etc, that the article's author thinks are such a problem?

So here's a proposal for a "better" idea for antitrust law based on an article demonstrating lack of understanding of the first thing about business.
The problem is we need the distinction between "author of the code" unknown ( in which case whatever symbol such as T is enough), and "user of the code" unknown ( in which case relying on dynamic casting or interfaces is fine).

What go doesn't provide is 1/ unknown but 2/ not. Which happens when you're creating a lib to be used later.
I think this lesson has been learned. After making losses for a while, British Airways did the research and found that people who were willing to pay for the Concorde's pricier tickets were actually willing to pay substantially more.

After BA upped the ticket prices and the wealthy customers just kept paying, the service quickly became profitable for them, and remained so until the crash.

For any new entrant to this market, it will need to remain an expensive niche.
Here is a suggestion because this problem has festered for decades and is going to get persistently worse and poison any meaningful and informed discussion in the public sphere.

Issues are being hijacked by funded groups pushing specific corporate interests and agendas masquerading as operating in the public interest.

2 issues need to be addressed urgently. And study, paper or public statements in the media from such groups should explicitly mention details on their formation, their employees, day-to-day organizational funding and all other funding. Anyone being paid to say something should declare they are being paid to say that.

Names like 'techfreedom', 'netfreedom' and other 'orwellian' names cannot be used unless they are a verified public service organization with a verifiable source of public or community funds with no corporate funding. Anything claiming to represent the public interest should do exactly that and cannot be a deceptive hijack of their interests. If funding dries up there will be no shills.
I went through the interview process at Booking.com and wanted to share salary expectations in case that is useful for others. As a senior engineer, the recruiter told me the range is between €60k-€65k depending on the level of experience. Also, it is important to note that much of the backend is written in Perl and the recruiter stressed that it would be absolutely necessary to be interested in writing a lot of Perl. They use Go, Python, and Java for some smaller parts of their stack.
.NET is highly backwards compatible, so why does "10+ year of answers to the same questions" matter to you?
Why wouldn't it? Arcane laws modeled after theaters presenting unlicensed material are hardly the end of the stick either.
Concorde made money for British Airways in every year it flew.
Originally, however, they had to return 80% of any operating profit to the UK Government in exchange for a 'Condorde Subsidy'

After BA had been privatised they bought themselves out of that agreement, ending the subsidy but pocketing the profit directly. They then proceeded to operate the fleet for another 20 years.

So, in a British context, on an operating basis Concorde absolutely was economically viable. On a program basis, considering all the development costs, it was not; but then again the Boeing 787 program is > $30 billion in deficit right now and is unlikely to ever clear that.
We did that, due to a lack or experience with graphQL. We use Postgres as a transactional key-value store (with proper schema though). We implemented the filtering as simple params to the API, not as flexible as graphQL but it is straightforward to implement on the backend side. I am not sure what is the meaning of inconsistent API though.

Now carefull, because it adds a lot of complexity, sometimes for very little gain, and sometimes for even harder to debug code. It also has a high learning curve, because it encourages you to make your code declarative rather than imperative, which isn't always obvious to do.

Does it count if the games use languages or systems that are unavailable outside of the game? (Shenzhen I/O for instance)
A smartwatch as simple as a Pebble can run such an app already. For example, I authenticate with 2FA with e.g. Google & Facebook w/my Pebble.

The problem is that I don't want to use my voice for commanding that much. It has privacy implications. First, obviously there is data being transmitted to a US corporation such as Google or Amazon. Second, there is analog audio data being transmitted. For example, that TOTP token generally stays valid for 30 seconds. In this window, an attacker could open the door right after you entered. I live in an apartment, and anything I say in the hallway can be heard by other people living on the same level as me while they are within their house (yep, terrible design).

I do admit that in the privacy of your home such analog audio data works better than say in public via your smartphone. But then again, smartphone is a can of worms with more privacy implications such as screen easily being seen by bystanders and cameras (a smartwatch has the very same issue; Google Glass wouldn't!). For the phone, Google Home is an interface, and certainly not (yet) the primary interface. For Amazon Echo, Alexa is the interface.

Bottomline, we need to think of these disadvantages (share our thoughts about them), and understand when they're too big to be a valid use case.

In the US, it is a violation of copyright law, if "people across the street can see it..." or if you "stream the screen," as that creates a "public performance," which, presumably would be unlicensed.
It is interesting to hear the SR-71 was so efficient once it got going. Certainly when it was stationary it was possibly the least fuel efficient aircraft ever - its body was designed to leak fuel when on the tarmac. The hot airframe would, once in flight, expand to seal the gaps!
"meant to" is not something that is factored into purchase.

And what should, or should not be done is so subjective it's meaningless.
So much for the "Federation of Planets launching race" ...
As jsmeaton says, judges aren't idiots, and a reasonable person's interpretation of intent is used in law all the time (see murder vs manslaughter, for example).

Or another example: a person I know got done for embezzling a five-figure sum from a business. She got off pretty lightly (though not scot-free), because she used those funds to feed and clothe homeless people; she wasn't doing it to profit. The action and the damage to the victim was the same, but the intent made significant difference to the legal opinion.
You are not your thoughts
I'm not saying this was necessarily true for the Concorde, but sometimes you really do need a vacuum tube.

All commercial x-ray sources use tubes, for example. The magnetrons that power our microwave ovens are vacuum tube oscillators.

And by their nature, tubes are much faster than semiconductors, which has its uses.

Lets not get stupid now.

It's all based on intent. His was fine, until he forgot that the medium used was putting him in the violation in the first place, but the cherry on top was not limiting the access to the people the stream was meant for.
Didn't know that it was that efficient - but I guess only when not using the afterburners. Still, if the efficiency of the engine could not be raised much, a modern construction could cut down other operation costs as weight and most importantly maintenance. Also, the whole airframe could be made lighter.
I was thinking along the same lines - what changes in society have occurred since then that would make any one person need to expend this much fuel to get from point a to point b marginally quicker?

You'd think with advancements in telecommunications - the internet, etc - there'd be even less reason to need to be physically present in a place.

Huh, the benefits are immediately tangible, the biggest one being less code to do the same thing while remaining typesafe.

I was reading the report because I was interested in the net effect that Amazon has on the retail job market. But I am disappointed at how poorly the report is written.

For instance, the claim of the 4 job cuts for every job that Amazon creates is based on the following statistics: the number of new hires at Amazon in a certain period, against the number of jobs lost in the brick and mortar retail industry in the same period.

Apparently the assumption is made that every single job loss in the brick and mortar retail industry is to blame on Amazon. As if Amazon is the only Internet retail shop in the USA.
The rest of the report is full with other weak claims and sensational titles as well. It appears that the writers had their conclusions already made up before they started investigating ...
So you already know about these issues, but you just go ahead and buy the items anyway?
I'd half expect that argument to be countered with the proposal that since supersonic planes will have a higher cruise altitude you could just offset the climate effect of the carbon dioxide by adding enough sulfur to the fuel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratospheric_sulfate_aerosols... says Airliners could use lower-quality sulfur-rich fuels on higher altitudes. That approach would utilize regular flights and enable airlines to use cheaper fuels on long-distance flights. It would require using separate fuel tanks for takeoff and landing in populated areas, due to toxicity and olfactory sensations of sulfur oxides. This can be achieved in many airliners without difficulty, since they already have separate and selectable wing and fuselage fuel tanks.), and I am not even sure if I would be fascinated or appalled by the argument...

The SR-71 was an interesting beast. I've read that due to the constant leaking while on the tarmac they would have to immediately rendezvous with a tanker to refuel after takeoff.

This warning appears on every tab in the incognito mode, so it is pretty visible.
