Do you have a citation for that? As far as I understand it, the nature of animal sentience is a very widely debated subject.

If you define sentience to mean "the ability to feel or perceive," then a wide array of animals are sentient. Look at any pet cat or dog to see a display of feelings like fear, excitement, or curiosity.

If you take a more narrow definition of "being aware of one's own existence," I imagine you would still find a number of animals who fit into the category.

An African Grey Parrot, while learning colors, asked what color his feathers were. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_(parrot); I would imagine there is a strong likelihood that you would probably see similar levels of self-awareness from other animals if we had a better way of testing for it.

After all, there's nothing so special about Humans and Parrots in particular, is there?
> How come is the difference that big ?

To a first approximation, CPU and RAM are required to get your site up and running at all. Bandwidth is less so. Bandwidth scales up as your growth scales up.

So it makes sense for cloud providers to make CPU and RAM relatively cheap, and charge unreasonable prices for bandwidth. If you're growing, you're more inclined to pay, since you're seeing success. Plus you're already locked in at that point.
One tricky issue with Docker is its overlap with systemd. Both can be responsible for running services. It is unclear how to integrate them well.
By your description I thought she'd just created 5 or so examples, I wasn't expecting such a breadth of stuff!

Food in Politics
Do you think that food has become an un-articulated part of political discussion and remains a silent asset? Why do you think this has happened?
Do you think Food should form part of standard political conversation, included in party policies for example?

I think ScaleFT attempts to do this, but only for linux servers.
Hmm, there's a touch of contempt for the average user in what you say... something that causes this current trend towards over-simplification.

Users love clear, systematic, repeatable, stable. Anyone using a shortcut often enough, given enough time will learn to use it because anyone can appreciate the advantage.

People that hunt-and-peck, or click around like seniors in a retirement-home absolutely hate the hostile and cumbersome UI that is hiding all the usefulness behind gimmicks.

I don't know what your problem is? Somebody asked for how to spot fake news or find the truth, I answered. Just because everybody could look for certain signs, doesn't mean everybody does.

Everybody can learn about certain signs. If the person asking already knew them all, why did they ask? Then their question was vacuous, not my reply. Just because a question has an obvious answer, the answer is vacuous? What is going on in your mind? What are you driving at?

Have you ever read one of those books about how to lie with statistics? You really, really should.
Back in the late 1990s, they did used to have transfer zones. I am not sure why they stopped. US airlines lose some non-trivial amount of money especially from Latin American travelers headed to Europe.
It's sort of the startup philosophy in reverse. "Only do things that have economies of scale." As if Google is just one person controlling a billion robots, and can do anything a billion robots can do, but can't do anything that requires more than the oversight of a single human for the entire project. (In est, Google is the player-character in Factorio.)

> Canadian customs officers may ask questions but they are generally not in a abusive tone.

Brit here, anecdata. I once entered Canada for business reasons and (long story short) my employer hadn't given me the correct visa paperwork. The Canadian border guys let me leave the airport and gave me 24 hours to come back with the correct paperwork (and threatened arrest if I didn't return). It was stressful but the guards were professional and relatively courteous. The guy I spoke to the next day basically said "we get this all the time, we know it's your company and not you".
I think one factor is that Universities are usually involved in research, so they're in a good position to continually identify what's important out of the existing body of knowledge, and keep their courses up to date with new ideas.

Another factor is that you can't skip over topics that don't immediately interest you. Some self-taught people can have that discipline as well, but it's not universal.

Because it's 2017 already. We, as programmers, should strive to make ethical software that doesn't infringe others' rights. Even Google's core motto is "don't be evil". The RIAA and MPAA are the supporting pillars of our culture - if they go down, our own culture dies. Making software that facilitates eroding the foundations on which our culture is built, seems pretty evil to me. Leveraging your position as a too-big-to-fail software company to steal billions of profits from poor artists seems pretty damn evil to me.

I just want Google to be better - I want them making ethical software that respects people's rights, not havens for thieves.
Since you seem to have some idea of what you're talking about: how would you compare the BSD-based firewall distros to the Linux-based firewall distros? Personally, I'm partial to VyOS, simply because I have the most experience with it. (Or rather, its fork, EdgeOS)

Wearables can't measure energy expenditure, at most they give you an overblown estimate that is only weakly correlated with actual expenditure.

The closest thing to measuring expenditure is a power meter on a bike or ergo, and then you still technically have to do a lab test measuring expired gases from your breathing to estimate efficiency.
I bought my FitBit Surge for the GPS and heartrate monitor. That data means I can pace myself accurately when I'm running, allowing me to run further and more consistently (and at a faster overall average pace than stopping / starting all the time). It also means I can keep track of my heartrate (and recovery) during other intense workouts like CrossFit and Insanity.

My father has a FitBit too and likes to gloat about smashing my step count pretty much every single day. He's retired and out and about all day, while I sit at a desk.

Guess who's obese and gets out of breath walking up the stairs? Step count as a measure of overall daily "exercise" is worse than useless.
UPS tests launching drones from trucks equipped with battery chargers
The centralized keyserver puzzles me a little too but it does have some advantages:

1. The email address adds a layer of indirection on top of your upspin directory and storage server addresses. You can migrate upspin providers without changing your identifier in the global namespace.

2. The email address is instantly recognizable to friends and family. It's more user-friendly than introducing a separate decentralized upspin address (like Jabber IDs). You did mention a hybrid approach which uses the centralized keyserver as a fallback though.

A decentralized keyserver still seems more natural to me. Would be great to hear more on the reasoning from the creators of upspin.

The complexity of over engineering processes shows up in a year in both JIRA and Trello. But in Trello you can't blame the program.

After contracting in the DoD space for about 6 years I'd say it's, for sure, all 3 plus a mixture of contractors who only make money if they fill all the seats on a contract (so even if you're useless, slowing down the process as long as you're a butt in the seat you're making them money).
I’m very happy to see this. The moment that we stop shouting at each other and start to actually “listen” to each other
is the moment when it becomes possible to find win-win solutions.

I would humbly suggest, however, that if you genuinely want to understand the mind of a Trump voter, you might try viewing the world from the perspective of people whose values are very different than yours.

Often when we offer value to others, we are completely oblivious to the fact their values are different than ours.
We may, for example, with the best of intentions, offer a big juicy steak to a militant vegan.

We may be completely oblivious to the fact that the gesture will not produce the desired feeling of gratitude.

Similarly, try to understand why offering “universal basic income” to a Trump voter is many orders of magnitude worse than offering a steak to a vegan.

Why is this? Because accepting a hand-out is an affront to their honor. Many would rather die than accept handouts from the state. Because they value PRIDE far more than they value CONNECTION.

Observe that the most popular insult among the alt-right is “cuck”. Why is that? This betrays their deepest fear of the blue collar Trump voter: The fear that their wives will seek other men because they are no longer able to provide for their families because no woman wants to be with a man who cannot provide for her.

If you truly get that and empathize with the terror that they feel, everything becomes much more clear.

How to Use Code Annotations When Protecting Your JavaScript
I recently stopped using Instacart, there wasn't a single reason, but the sum of:

1. I'm paying 15-20% more for groceries just on line-item price. The prices Instacart shows vs what you see in store are sometimes a bit less, but more often not, 20% or more more.

2. Inconsistency between what's in Instacart's catalog and what's in the store. Making special requests isn't easy and they usually just go unfulfilled as it's up to the discretion of the shopper if they want to spend the extra time to find something special.

3. Safeway.com's online store got a little bit better -- and next day delivery is usually okay with me.

4. This service fee issue to top it off -- I just don't feel like paying 20% more for stuff, 10% for delivery, 10% for a service fee, then I'm compelled to add a tip? Poor UX IMHO if the solution is to manually change the service fee to 0% and tip 10%.

5. I had an incident last year that was sorta hilarious -- I had a shopper tell me Safeway was out of ice cream. Like, completely out of ice cream -- I went to their online store at the location the shopper was supposed to be and they list 400 different ice cream products. There is no way they were out of ice cream unless they had lost power for a day or something. It was just completely nonsensical and made me think they were maybe trying to fulfill my order out of their own warehouse because they had 90% of the stuff there -- and 90% in crunch time is maybe okay? That was maybe the first nail in the coffin.
What an interesting distribution... From the table it looks like there is a correlation between method and results. Are people less willing to put their trust in Trump over the phone than in anonymity, or are the people who are making calls biased, or...? :)
I thought dailymail would be banned.
I guess so, just seemed a bit odd at face value. All this WISP stuff seems really interesting to me. I don't think I have what it takes to start one myself, but I wish I could find someone starting out in the business who needs a partner.
>I think the process selects well for people who are comfortable with doing work on a whiteboard.

If I am not mistaken, you can choose to do the exercises on a Chromebook in an IDE instead of the whiteboard, so there's that.
That's something I've been thinking about. Webworkers don't have direct access to the Canvas though, but it seems like you can work around that by passing image data. Killing infinite loops would be great

"dense locales "

They have to stop making it illegal to build dense locales, though.

The grandparent makes a great point. Anecdata, but it mirrors perfectly my experience living in a moderate-density mixed use neighborhood (South Park, San Diego). My wife and I managed without a car for several months largely through techniques they describe.
Additionally, the study does not differentiate between therapy types received - treatment modalities vary in efficacy depending on person and context. For example, 20 years ago it was known within psychology that "Cognitive Therapy" had about a 50/50 success rate. However, if you try to apply cognitive therapy to someone diagnosed with borderline personality disorder - it's not likely to work ever - and might actually make things worse (Dialectic Behavioural Therapy is probably the gold standard for this).

As you travel down the road towards being a psych. professional - you tend to subscribe a school of thought about behavior and personality, and there are a few to choose from (e.g. people are generally self-directed and will solve their own problems given the opportunity, or behavioural problems have their roots in learning - so training is required) - and depending on your opinion you'll eventually subscribe to a treatment modality that resonates with what you believe (the extreme version of this is abandoning psychology & switching to medicine / psychiatry because you believe behavior is simply a neurochemical process).

Serious personality disorders are very difficult to treat, which brings me to my next point. The Big-Five factor model used to determine change over time does not factor diagnosis, so we don't really get a picture of what the cohort looks like. We know nothing about patient history or reason for seeking therapy (i.e. have you been evaluated admitted to a psychiatric ward in the past? have you suffered from substance abuse problems?). And finally, the big question that would be useful is "what problems caused you to seek therapy?" Depression vs. hearing voices in one's head vs. got divorced because I like to drink are all very different issues.

I would like to have seen at least three more measures: reason for treatment, length of treatment and therapy modality used.

However, I will say that stating that "new research proves that therapy doesn't work" will get you a click or two ;-)

Sure, but at least on none of my Linux systems there is no such file /etc/localhost. I think the parent was referring to /etc/localtime. Not sure what is the behaviour if non-existent file is specified - perhaps the "value cannot be interpreted" case applies, but it's not pefectly clear, since it could be argued that the value is valid, just refers to a non-existent file.
The Godfather has become President.
not sure about being enchanted by some tv shows, but yeah some people would still want to visit US, in land mass this big there is always something interesting to see (culture really ain't the draw for the US). these days I just keep explaining to them all the humiliation they would be exposed and hence they change plans accordingly. so will we. world is a beautiful place, too big to cover it properly in a lifetime.

go where it's exotic (this ain't US), where you are actually welcomed (again not US), experience traditional culture (what? seeing how shamefully native indians were/are treated? no thank you) and so on. if you are into big cities, european and asian places are way more interesting and intense anyway.

Citation for what? Animals are by law treated as property. I just explained why someone would think of a solution as ridiculous as that. Parent points out that the solution is not practical but it's clearly demonstrated in the video that it is.

Given that the world we live in is focused on human convenience, with gluttony based on non-human animal flesh, it's really hard to be surprised.

When you have engineers making efficient assembly lines for slaughtering chickens, cows, pigs, all sentient, feeling animals, how is using eagles for fetching drones not the same act of dismissing animal's wishes as morally relevant, or starving dogs for finding truffles, or any human centered activity that risks the life and well being of another non-human animal?

Why YOU Should Lead Digital Transformation
Trump has already killed American children in Yemen.

However incompetent I think he is, I doubt that was deliberate though, and is besides the point.

Every president will inevitably make military decisions that will lead to civilian casualties. It's never nice, and it's never "okay", but it's also extremely difficult to avoid, in a conflict.

Repealing ACA is purely political, with very real effects on tens of millions of Americans losing coverage, benefitting only rich people.

It's not an unavoidable side effect. Just fucking don't do it. Your comparison is ludicrous.

The question you were responding to was about people bought up in an environment where they had no access to other sources of knowledge. I think a response that suggests that everybody ought to know how to determine fact from fiction is in that context a little heartless.

Thanks for the recommendation on reading a book about stats - which would you recommend? I already work on statistical models in my job and would probably get in trouble if they didn't lead to tangible results so I might even have the book on hand.
most people travel to places they are welcomed at, not where you face hostility and suspition right upon entry.
On the other hand, xmonad has a remarkably well defined set of defaults so I for one am able to be very productive with them very well. My personal config provides stuff that I use maybe 3 % of the time.

Do you have any suggestions on deciding where to draw the line for simulation? It seems that you are suggesting instruction-level simulation of the same binary which is going to be deployed, correct?

What is the performance you're usually seeing for simulations like that?
That's extremely bloated. ;) For several years early on in its life, the entire XMonad core codebase was just under 500 lines of code. Of course, I believe the Zipper rewrite (many moons ago) was what increased the size somewhat, and it was for the best... It's even small enough someone did a formalized Coq proof of the core data structures (i.e. they proved that XMonad cannot 'crash' in several ways.) :)

I have used it very fondly almost for a decade now (since 0.0!) and it is a good piece of software. I don't think I've changed my config more than 10 lines in like 7 years...
Newtonian level of insight into fitness is super easy. (With Newtonian I mean enough true to get the work done, even if there is a higher level of truth underneath, i.e Einsteinian physics, quantum physics)

Weight delta = calories in - calories out

Health preservation requires adequate levels of protein (muscles) and fat (hormones)

Muscle growth requires caloric surplus, adequate protein availability and muscle breaks

Muscle breaking requires progressive overloading of muscles (i.e. do more/harder of the thing you want to get better at over time)

Micronutrients is a thing, so eat a balanced diet or take supplements.

With those five things, 99% of people can do anything they need around fitness.

Wearable fitness does very little for those five things.

Gathering data to further the development of Einsteinian level of insights is interesting - fitness certainly lags behind there, but I dont think any big breakthroughs in fitness will come from that, in the same way that Einsteinian physics didnt change how we build bridges or pipes.

The less sexy but much more interesting point is on changing behaviours around those five things. How do you design technology to change habits?

It is possible to change habits with technology. The obvious example is how mobile phones changed habits, for instance in how we make appointments, navigate and a multitude of other ways. Cracking how wearable fitness can change those is a much more valuable challenge in my view. Can we design wearable fitness that lets you exercise wherever you are?

Tap your fitness device and you're sent to the nearest gym, with a change of clothes and towels etc ready in a locker for you, and the device reading off your exercise plan? Tap it to get your personalized meal prepared for you at your nearest participating restaurant, or a shopping bag sent home to you.

That's where I see the future being for fitness technology - we know the right things to do, they are just awkward to do, so lower the barrier to doing the right things.
