Why would you consider it a failure? And don't forget that the stubbornness of Republicans is the reason the single payer part of the law was dropped, even though that would have had a much larger effect on the cost of healthcare. Additionally, several Republican governors _refused_ federal money for Medicaid expansion, directly making healthcare less affordable for their constituents purely for the political optics of being able to say they stood up against "Obamacare".
Core based Pentium/Celeron and some of the ULV CPUs have had AVX disabled since Ivy Bridge.

That must be new. It wasn't part of esta two years ago. I would be totally unable to produce all my aliases in all the services I have accounts. I wouldn't even be able to remember all the services.
I think your mindset is part of the problem...

WHEN someone works isn't a fundamental issue. IF we're talking retail, thats an obvious exception. If we're talking a job where the employee isnt directly contacting customers, then the time they work is largely less important. The most efficient team I've worked on in my career was made up from people around the world, there were 9 of us, everyone single one was in a different timezone, some 12 hours off from each other... and we got more done as a team than any Team I've been on before or sense... and it was largely due to the nature of our hours... we had to make sure we buttoned our shit up, we documented it well, we communicated VERY efficiently and effectively... etc.

I know it doesn't work for every position at every company, no single thing does, but to consider 9-5 (or any set schedule in particular) "fundamental" to business is short-sided at best...
I think that makes your evidence significantly weaker than what was used in this study.
Part of Github's secret sauce: Web source tree browsing that's front and center, that's relatively decent, with OK search. (versus making the log/history the central part of the Web UI as other tools seem to do)

There are SO many times I need a short peek at something, and am glad don't have to clone/download, etc.
> It's nearly impossible to find a desktop CPU that supports ECC ram now

That's not correct. All 6th Gen Core i3 have ECC support, and the 7th Gen Core i3 that have 'E' in the product name support ECC:

This happens in other countries too. It's happened to friends of mine entering Canada from the United States.
Just don't add it to global config
So that companies which haven't made any contributions to the code or its development can profit from it, presumably.
How can we trust global warming scientists if they keep twisting the truth
Could also be a broader sign the economy is struggling. People have less money to blow on expensive groceries and are scaling back purchasing.
> Because that's old testament morals that have been deprecated by Christ.

In general, you're not wrong. In this case, though, you are. Matthew 19:16-19 [1]:

> 16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? 17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments. 18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, 19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Had Christ intended to modify the commandment to "thou shalt not kill", I expect He would have.

It seems hard to drive a vga display without resorting to fpgas or an avr.

If composite is enough, the NES PPU could be a fun addition to that design :)
I get this exact same feeling, a thousand fold when I'm in a supermarket. To think of the amount of effort it has taken to design, manufacture, package, market and transport all those products (edible or not) is a little overwhelming.
The comments are great but for me it's old-style c makes it hard to follow, it uses lots of short var names that are forward declared, doesn't pass length with char* arrays, etc. But I don't want to criticise any particular thing, because it works amazingly well. It's one of my top 10 games.
> Even in recent history, the '48 Arab-Israeli war, pan-Arab forces attempted to crush the nascent Jewish enclave.

If you're going that far back, why not just a handful of years earlier? Palestine getting flooded with immigrants whose sole purpose was to replace the incumbent population and establish their own state.

The American far right is terrified that muslims are going to take over an establish sharia law... all based on nonsense. The Palestinians actually had that happen to them, and you don't think they were justified in feeling invaded?

> Also, I find your Holocaust allusion extremely tasteless.

Of course it was. That was why it was said. I find your defence of the Israeli apartheid and their continued occupation of Palestine and brutal oppression of a hopeless people to be just as tasteless.

EDIT: In any case, thank you for explaining the original downvote, unlike the others.
While this is a great solution is many sectors it won't solve anything in others. As a man I love having flexibility in my job. One of the best perks. But you can't do that for a lot of jobs, a lot of high skill jobs too. So while I think we should do this, will it really solve much?
Evidence of what? Are you under arrest or a suspect?
None of what you said or quoted supports your claim (that making a second account for travel is a felony).
I wish that more meat products labelled the feed used... I find that influences flavor more than anything.. and other than when beef is "grass fed" often isn't to be found. In particular egg taste/flavor can vary so much it isn't funny.

Actually a lottery system is not incompatible with democratic principles. In fact, it was one of the original principles of Athenian democracy:

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sortition :

In ancient Athenian democracy, sortition was therefore the
traditional and primary method for appointing political
officials, and its use was regarded as a principal
characteristic of true democracy.
As you note, bankers and homeowners decided to exploit socialized losses and privatized gains in order to become wealthier at the expense of everyone else. Let them reap what they've sown.

The best place to actually put the losses would be the government, except "the government" doesn't actually have any money, it just spends your money which it takes through taxes or inflation.

Yes. So homeowners and banks have been exploiting renters like myself. Because "the government" is at fault, you'd like the government to continue exploiting renters like myself in order to prevent the homeowners from suffering a loss.

It's essentially the same logic as the 5th Amendment Takings Clause. If the government is going to take your property they should compensate you for it. Normally this doesn't apply to things like zoning changes for pragmatic reasons...

While the takings clause might apply to downzonings, since downzongings restrict property rights you previously held, they definitively do not apply to upzonings. Your property rights simply do not include the right to prevent others from competing economically.

I'm going to speculate that you hold a leveraged long position on real estate, and you want the government to protect your investment?
I have been trying to find out, for a while now. I have not been able to obtain any information on this. If they don't have ECC, Ryzen will not be an option for me. The extra cost is marginal compared to finding out you have bad RAM (by crashing and corruption).
I think that's most of it, but I also think there's been some weird shift in the way police and prosecutors behave over the last decade. Much has been written how we now effectively have debtor's prisons. People are fined and imprisoned because they can't pay the fines.

The crazy part for me is that this has all happened while the crime rate has been steadily going down, so there's not even a justification for it (from a crime standpoint).
Some people hate web as much as you hate email.

Email is ancient, web is bloated.
As someone who worked for the NYT until recently, I can tell you a major thing holding the Times back is the sheer amount of bloat and middle management in the business, especially tech, side of things. Useful, even revenue-generating projects are sidelined for political reasons (such as encroaching on another manager's 'territory') and months of work had been negated because a higher level 'architect' decided that only three languages can be used internally. Legacy projects are held on way past their sunset - that means literally months of dev time devoted to projects used by maybe a dozen people. Don't even get me started on the architectural inefficiencies that rack up tens of thousands of dollars a week to AWS (soon to be Google because the tech org loves to switch providers every year, also resulting in massive amounts of redundant work). The NYT online search is one area that is just bleeding cash - it requires a lot of machinery for very little. That's money that could be used to hire journalists and finance deep investigative dives.

The NYT does incredible work. It just needs to take a hard look at it's digital side and trim a lot of the fat. There's a lot of churn and little long term vision. Unfortunately layoffs / firings are rare in the tech org but buyouts and their ilk are widespread in the newsroom.
Both Unity and UDK recognised the benefits of open source, and have OS components.

A product can be good or bad without OS. So long as you can deploy what you make with it effectively.

Sometimes that means mindshare, like UDK and Source.

Sometimes that means complete decoupling tooling from code like Sublime and Atom.

Sometimes it is more about the deployment, like Visual Studio and Unity.

However, to stand out, this product needs one of the above.

It's new, and doesn't seem to be backed by a big name, so no mindshare yet.

So they need to somehow make devs want to use it for their code. A nice experience is usually not enough.

An OS community, or a fantastic cross-compilation strategy are the only two things that I, personally, have seen work.

OS seems to be the easiest of the two.
I think his point is that for pretty much every other crime - from murder to jaywalking - possession of evidence relating to that crime is not itself illegal. I know that if I ended up recording a murder (FPV drone) I'd turn that over to the police no question, but for CP? Drone camera, meet thermite.
The government can fund private business developing free software to outpace another private business.

For example Continuum Analytics is partly funded by public sources to work on open data science, competing against commercial offerings from SAS, for example. The Blender Foundation has some public funding for developing new features for the Blender 3D software suite, partly through public film funding.
> Eurostar does

Eurostar is the exception to every train. It's a monster of complexity because it has to work on three systems. It also does not have 550mm platform height. I think it has 750?

> some TGV trainsets

But not because of the platform height but because of stability in case of a crash. The TGVs with bogies between the cars has the same general height setup as the traditional ones.

> (If the floor is below the axle line, as with ultra low floor trams, it's really complicated.)

Sure, but that's hardly relevant here. Trams are generally set up completely different. Vienna for instance has the ULF tram and it's being phased out because such a low floor setup is just generally a bad idea for many different reasons. The new rolling stock will be Bombardier Flexity.
> Of course you have a right to say who comes and goes in your neighbors properties and what kinds of things they are allowed to do

Why? I have a right to intervene if their behavior affects me (ie. noise) but I certainly don't have a right to decide what my neighbors do.

If my neighbors want to host a swingers' party next door, so long as it's quiet then it's absolutely none of my business. Similarly, if they want to do short-term rentals, so long as noise levels are kept acceptably low I don't see what say I should have in the matter.
> The former system you've described doesn't pay out to working age economically inactive people, who vastly exceed those claiming employment-linked or disability benefits in every developed country.

And what would you do with these people, who have no disability but also no marketable skills and as a result no one will hire them?

A UBI combined with the elimination of the minimum wage would allow more of these people to work, because then they could actually find work for the price the market values their labor (less than current minimum wage).

And it's not like we aren't paying them already. Even after unemployment runs out, in most states they still qualify for food and other social assistance. Because what is the alternative? Watch them starve or turn to crime to eat?
Yeah, retail, food, healthcare, transportation, maintenance, manufacturing, trash pickup, almost everything really. But nah, hell with anyone whose job ain't yours.
Your example would defeat even genetic algorithms! But maybe a quantum computer could do it. If not, then I think the computer must have some artificial intelligence at the level of a human. It could respond: "I will try to find you an answer but the question is a hard one and I may have to quit early. How many minutes should I spend on this task?".
Funny, I actually did the same thing for python years ago and also talked about "Lossless Syntax Tree" then start calling it a Full Syntax Tree since CST doesn't really fit; I wasn't aware of the existence of lib2to3 at that time.

My goal was different than your: I wanted make writing custom refactoring code (that's it: code that modify source code) and code that works on source code a do-able task.

I end up doing some design decisions that I haven't found elsewhere (but this field is hard to explore):

- producing json, because datastructure doesn't lie to you and potential interoperability

- nodes are responsible for the formatting within itself, in opposition with lib2to3 where a node is responsible for the formatting before itself (or after, I'm not sure anymore)

- the tree is design for the human brain instead of an interpreter/compiler (for example having list instead of recursive structures)

The project is called Baron https://github.com/pycqa/baron and was actually a mean for me to work on what really interest me: the abstraction that attempt to make writing custom refactoring a doable task https://github.com/pycqa/redbaron

Good luck with your project :)
Kinda, but then they should've released a 4C/8T with very high clock rate CPU at around the 200-250$ mark for that.

Intel's 7700Ks can easily hit the 5ghz mark on aftermarket air and AIO water cooling.

Games aren't optimized well beyond 2 cores, with games that are optimized for more than 4 cores being particularly unheard off.

Games aren't an application that supports parallelism that well since your sound, physics, AI and graphics threads all have to be synced within a single frame otherwise everything falls apart.

The worst case for Zen is going to be the not here and not there CPU, with price slashed 7700K mopping the floor with 8C Zen CPUs in gaming because they can clock to 5ghz and higher while it's unclear if AMD can even hit 4ghz reliably on all cores and on the other hand the Zen ecosystem not being mature enough for the prosumer and professional types due to subpar support/performance of storage, peripherals and memory.

The biggest mistake I made is getting a 2nd 5820K for my gaming rig, I got it cheap so I don't mind but performance wise I would be better off with a 6700/7700K.
And I'm lucky as my 5820K hits 4.5-4.6ghz with an AIO cooler.
If he were being forced to divulge the physical coordinates of a hidden thumb drive, it's highly likely he'd get Fifth Amendment protection.

The article is correct in highlighting some challenges, though I think it doesn't cover all the right ones.

Challenges highlighted in the article that are not too serious, I think:

* Mechanical complications with prior VTOL aircraft:
Yes, VTOLs with tilt-wing or tilt-rotor design are mechanically tricky, but those constitute just a small part of the designs that are floated these days. Electric multi-engine multi-rotor concepts (big drones, basically), by contrast, are extremely simple, mechanically.

(Note that the definition of VTOL in the article (vertical takeoff like a helicopter, flying horizontally like an airplane) is unusually restrictive, as it would exclude helicopters or multicopters, btw.)

* Congestion. Yes, new ATC and collision avoidance techniques need to be developed and rolled out. But seriously, there is a lot of space up there, it's a big sky. If it's used effectively, it'll be just fine.

* Safety: "Filling the skies over major urban centers with cars is an order of magnitude more dangerous than filling the streets with traditional cars, since at least an accident on the ground stays on the ground. An accident in the sky threatens everybody below."

Yes, a car on the ground threatens everyone on the ground, and a plane threatens everyone on the ground, too. Planes are much lighter than cars, and carry less fuel. Of course, they accelerate on the way down, but all in all I think the risk is comparable.

A related issue that quote might have alluded to is that aircraft crashing down could hit other aircraft below, but traffic density would have to rise considerably before that becomes an issue.

Challenges not highlighted enough:

* Enough battery performance, with high specific energy (kWh per kg). Progress is being made, but ploddingly. Currently still a fraction of the specific energy of av gas.

* The regulatory environment in aviation is tricky - even though the US aviation regulation is probably among the lightest and innovation friendliest in the world, you can't just launch and iterate, as in startups, for obvious reasons. Regulation and low volume is why a GPS that's only a fraction as capable as an iPad costs $20k when it's certified for an aircraft.
>"Not only is he a natural-born US citizen, but he’s also enrolled in Global Entry — a program through CBP that allows individuals who have undergone background checks to have expedited entry into the country."

Incredible. The TSA and DHS is basically "theater of the absurd". Every other disturbing detail aside, this individual actually paid good money to enroll in the Global Entry program only to be detained and humiliated by this agency.
2FA? With a mobile number? Did the author completely forget Snowden, and how all the major phone companies give NSA direct access? Did the author forget the broad NSA information sharing that Obama enacted just before leaving office? Even that damned Coast Guard can get your 2FA code now.
It's very true.

In my situation, I struggled for years with attendance because my spouse had a seemingly impossible time getting up on a consistent basis to take care of the kids so i can go to work... lots of fights ensued, a even lost a couple of jobs to it (though the employers were mostly kind, and my managers appreciated the situation, but the strict rules of the company basically meant i had to leave)

Turns out, my wife has an actual sleeping disorder (DSPD[1]), and my new position, when I came to my managers about it, they worked with me. I work from home now every morning until about noon when I head into the office. If there is a meeting that I need to be in physically in the morning, than I still go in (waking up "early" once in a while is fine, the problem in the past was basically waking up early every day for years) ... it works out for everyone, I end up putting more work in (instead of sitting around for 3 hours before work when i woke up at 6am, now i am working at 6:30 ... then i go in at 12, and work till 5). I'm gladly putting in that extra time, too... as a sort of appreciation for what they are helping me with. It also drives loyalty, and I'm very loyal to both the company AND my managers for working with me. There is literally no downside to the arrangement from anyone's point of view... and it all comes from just being flexible.

Which jobs you can't do it for? Isn't this just a matter of "buffering", i.e. having enough people in the place to deal with the unexpected?
Within the states of US you can do the same ;) EU essentially wants to be United States of Europe. Though I'm not sure all EU states yet ready to surrender as much national sovereignty as US states did.

And what anything of this has to do with homophobia?
Which is covered by the whole "customer facing" thing I said... and even caveated against. My point still stands though, its not "fundamental" to work in general.
Do we get to choose to live in a world where that isn't the case? No? Hey that sounds like a good reason to have fewer laws we can be parallel-constructed into violating.
My ideal political system these days is a meritocratic lottery system

That sort of describes Athens, with the critical caveat that only freemen male citizens could participate.
