I'd be pretty pissed off if I was charged a lot of money for "research" to have some lawyer file run of the mill divorce papers or immigration paperwork. It's like hiring a dev to build a CRUD app and he doesn't have basic competence either.

At a certain point, you need to a baseline competence or you shouldn't even be taking the job. If people balk at you for not being ready to even take on the basic job title, that shouldn't be a surprise.

I'm not saying if you come across a corner case that's special you shouldn't charge for it. It's like if you had an exceptional immigration case that required research, not just filing form 1072B.

It's something to keep in mind because you can lose your reputation or clients being silly with the "research 40 hours" act. Sometimes losing a little money today is a win longterm. A lawyer billing research for basic stuff or nonsense that no one else would (learning on the job, basically), would and should lose his clientele.
I can second this. I suffer badly enough to use strong opioids daily. Up side of them is I can code pretty well on it. I prefer weed for a better sense of self, but find it hard to code(impossible).
My tolerance may be too high.

Smoking doesn't relieve pain for me, helps provide some relief via relaxation or just super high.(kush or straight indica).

Edibles I have to eat alot and time to kick in long, not too big fan of edibles.

indica, hybrid and sativa shatter/bidder)oil, live resin etc I never felt much pain relief (more to the head).
A gram in a couple of hours I still didn't feel significant immediate pain relief

Vaporizers (got a volcano for 15 years), provides a nice body relief and head high depending on strains.
More for relaxation.

CBD/mix as a Eliquids/juice in a ecig- I don't think I have had strong enough to fully comment.

Pills- I need to have atleast 400mg before I feel anything.
That's a good guess! I spent nearly exactly $20 until week 4, including a whole Sunday of fiddling around with the Cats & Dogs dataset
I have a different experience. If people were actually trying to change, they would. People who don't change, don't want to change. Being the kind of asshole that Travis is gradually proving to be, at the age of 40; is a pretty lousy indicator.

No. The profound in "please accept my sorrow" is a comment on the depth of your sorrow, something that you are uniquely equipped to describe. "A profound apology follows:" is a comment on how I expect my reader to interpret this message, something I am not at all equipped to describe.
The search for a new test of Artificial Intelligence
It could be that this is a specification on how to implement some new API which operates consistently across the trio; i.e. "this function invokes X with parameters Y in Vulkan, X with Y in Metal, X with Y in DirectX" since that is no trivial task to do right and extensively.

But I'm sure that'd also include a real implementation.. so.. yeah.
I would absolutely love if DF looked that good at some point! You're definitely right that just because it's ASCII doesn't mean it can't be visually appealing
Twitter is a dumb pipe for notifications. It's slightly more than the content equivalent of a bell going off when something interesting happens. Non-conversation twitter posts are mostly references to somewhere else with a longer form, and the conversation tweets are hard to follow.

If these things were decoupled, and a non-human readable version was introduced, Twitter could become a defacto real-ish-time pub-sub, message bus for web applications tied to users (instead of ips). I could sit at any machine, anywhere, and my notification widget would get notifications for all sorts of events. Or it could power internet game matchmaking, or I could subscribe to reminders and have them scheduled and sent out to me wherever I am rather than having to tie those things to my device or my calendaring app or whatever. e.g. I could ask the local bbq competition to tweet-notify me when the next competition is coming up and I'd just get pinged when it happened instead of getting blasted by spam and or having to remember to put it into my calendar and/or having to remember to read my twitter feed and happen to catch the notice.

How about sub with parameters, only send me a deal making coupon notice if it's for these restaurants and under $50? Okay, I bought some, now I'm unsubscribing for now.

Let me write some tools on my own to tap the notification feeds and build some home-spun IFTTT stuff. Like maybe I sub to a local meetup group, tell everybody I'm putting a hike together but won't go unless I get 5 other people to go, and then I don't get notified until I get a quorum. If I don't by a certain date auto-send out a cancel-the-hike notice.

Conversations should be decoupled and turned into a web-based IM (same character limits) but with easy references to human readable notifications and machine-readable notifications.

Charge $10/year and guarantee a spam-free communication and notification service for you and all your devices.
Good point. From Lazard's perspective it also probably makes sense not to account for some of these things (e.g. infrastructure cost, site remediation etc.) as it's unlikely these kinds of costs will be borne by a private investor.
Because of macros lisps are more resistant to bad APIs than other languages, in my experience.
I'm rarely one to defend Uber, but I agree. I didn't see the big deal. He was a little rude, callous, and aloof. Not great, but meh.
They aren't that dissimilar. Both promote ambitious languages in which lofty ideals somewhat get in the way of convenience, practicality and available brain capacity. Both consist, for the most part, of disturbingly enthusiastic but generally friendly disciples. They want you to believe, to suffer meaningfully, to achieve one-ness with the borrow checker, to be (or Maybe) The Monad.

They're not, say, supercilious lispers who have guarded the bucket of unvarnished truth since 1958 or rubyists promising a path to happiness in this life (and also something about monkeys).
Don't confuse someone being successful because they're an asshole with someone being successful despite being an asshole.
There is already SDL2 support for emscripten, and emscripten can compile to WebAssembly with the WASM flag flipped on. So basically just use emcc with

-s WASM=1 -s USE_SDL=2

for WebAssembly + SDL2.

The test_sdl2* tests in emscripten's test suite have working samples in them,

My understanding is that opioids also constrict the ureter and make it more difficult to pass the stone. Whereas since weed is an anti-inflammatory it may even have some benefits.
The interaction with the driver, that's fine to film. The long section before their conversation, watching that made me feel uncomfortable, like a voyeur. I suppose that's what makes me cringe when watching "reality TV".
I think the intended meaning was that his feelings of regret and remorse are profound.
>I want twitter to be a feed of thoughts an opinions from people I respect, or important updates from companies I'm interested in.

That's EXACTLY what is is for me... because I only follow people I respect and companies I'm interested in.

Well, considering how frequently Jaguar owners have to fill up, it seems only reasonable that the cars are optimised for the convenience of doing so.
> If you watch the video, you'll notice the argument notation is name: type rather than type name. I think Anders is reminiscing about his Delphi days.

No particular overcoming here, more like 98% luck and 2% smart avoidance of unwanted tasks.
Yeah, I kinda knew I was being overly categorical...

Binary trees have been around for decades, and I assume there are solid libraries for all useful variants of them, and that everyone can use them.

MS sufferers take it for muscle spasms and neuropathy. Opioids have problems like tolerance and stomach irritation that cannabis does not, and since MS is usually a lifelong affliction this can be bad over the long term.

Of course one of the axes has been scaled. We're interested in the proportionality between the two variables, to see how good their claim that cars parked is a good proxy measure for stock price. I see where "percent since arbitrary start time x" is a poor choice of units for cars, but since it's a linear transformation, you'd get the same picture (and conclusion) were you using "thousands of cars" instead.
I don't hate JS but would rather write my web codebase in something else, something that has a standard lib for instance. ES6 is also a transpile to JS language on the browser. The main problem is that we are stuck with ancient JS on the browser and WASM could fix that. Wouldn't you rather conpile ES6 to WASM instead of JS?
There's a huge difference between "can't" and "don't." People can change.
I just looked at my cell phone and there's a notification of 9 friends checking in on Swarm - most of them early fellow-dodgeball users.

YMMV but most of my friends who were hardcore users switched over to Swarm upon the pivot. The migration was automatic btw - Foursquare told you in the app that checkins were no longer supported and offered easy install of Swarm with the same login credentials.
You've misunderstood my statement. I understand living behind the iron curtain was horrible for many. Like you I know people that fled this situation. And I am absolutely not advocating/romanticizing communism/socialism.

My point is ANYTHING communism/socialism became a negative point. Kinda how you jumped on my comment without as though I was being a communist/socialist avocate when I was saying elements of have potential. Healthcare in USA is a good real world example. Most developed nations do universal healthcare and its the preferred way for the majority in these countries with clearly better outcomes for the mass. Many Americans still seem emotionally charged against 'socialising healthcare', argueing this is not a viable alternative despite significant empirical examples proving this works well. And also allows for integration with private alternatives for those that want service options.

I just feel the world is getting more ration in its discussion on this point. Plenty if irrationality remaining elsewhere :)
So the "working" icon works, but the "not working" doesn't? I'm not sure that's right.

One of my cars has the tank on the driver's side and the other on the passenger. I didn't think I cared till reading this thread. Now I prefer the passenger side because I can open my car door all the way to get out at the pump and if refilling with a gas can on the side of the road I'm further from traffic. But ya, the convenience of easily getting out an not walking around the car is nice too and more useful.

I think I'm back to not caring.

Top-down I think ?
I've never been an Uber driver, but as far as I can tell from my conversations, they do indeed sign up.

My app sometimes says there are no Uber X available in my area, but 5 or 6 Uber Black. How could that be possible unless the Black were not automatically signed up for X?
I suspect Uber's board was threatening to fire him. A person like Kalanick makes no apologies unless forced to do so by people even more powerful than him.
You should think of typescript as javascript+ more than a different language. It looks more like what javascript would look like in 2-3 version if the governing body thought static types were important to add.
"How do you get a group of people to watch a sports/political event on twitter and discuss in real-time?" Via friend lists. If all your friends are watching the game and tweeting at the same time then you are discussing the game with them

"the switching costs for the user have to be reduced" The rise of smart TVs with apps will lead to ever easier delivery of streamed programming to traditional mediums such as TV, while also opening new viewing experiences on mobile, tablet and computer.
Opioids can also cause extreme constipation, which can also result in extreme agony when you're coming off of them. That's what happened to me when I was coming off morphine and oxycodone given me in the ER to treat kidney stone pain. It was hell, and that experience alone makes me seriously contemplate refusing all pain killing medication if I'm ever offered it again.
I completely agree with Travis and I don't think he did anything wrong. I think it was a bad move on his part to apologize for the video.
I can confirm my right hand drive Subaru has the filler on the right.

Thats not really what he asked though. If in the end a developer can work 98% in TS, do they really care if it runs as JS or something else if it solves their problems with the language ?
I have heard from people that love TS, but surprisingly many that also prefer pure ES6 JS.
Except your facts don't conflict with the idea that government expansion in the private sector is causing costs to rise.

It's may be true that the total share federal government spending as a share of GDP hasn't changed. I think it's more important to look at the ways government policy has picked winners in the private sector. In other words I regard government intrusion in the market as a cause of inequality you bemoan, not an effect.

Another point: did you read yummyfajita's ancestor post? He writes (quoting Elizabeth Warren): "The Two Income Trap shows that income rose 75%. Mortgage expenses rose 70% (for a 66% bigger house [1]), two cars cost 55% more than 1 car, health insurance cost 60% more, etc. In fact, the main expense that rose faster than income was taxes (140%) - everything else rose more slowly."

Not because of Google, because of their greed. Not even so, because they have to make money for running shop.
I'm pretty sure Travis didn't mean that his apology was particularly insightful.
I don't know enough about Kalanick to say whether he can change or not. My opinion is actually similar yours, a lot has to will with will. Some people find it very difficult to change even if they want to, but if someone doesn't want to, the chances of them changes drops dramatically.

I'm kind of surprised that the alcohol and tobacco industries don't lobby for legalization. They could potentially diversify in to marijuana manufacture and sale, and leverage their brands and experience in selling other recreational drugs. The pharmaceutical industry could similarly profit from manufacturing and selling medical marijuana.

And the "profound" in "please accept my profound apology" can't likewise be a comment on the depth and sincerity of the apology, a trait the issuer is similarly uniquely equipped to describe?

Come on. I get all the backlash against Uber — the outrage they're experiencing is rightly deserved — but this is truly asinine.
Only show me content that's been re-tweeted more than X times, where X is something that I can set.

I don't want to read about what somebody had for lunch and I wouldn't expect it to be re-tweeted. But something thoughtful or interesting or funny would be.

Yes, there would be problems with fake accounts re-tweeting but that should be solvable.
Fun fact: according to the article, the driver gave him a 1 star.
Many developers have no practical exposure to compiled languages, and are prone to believe that Node.js is generally "faster" than Java and comparable to C++. We all had to learn this stuff somewhere. :)
Hmmm, let's pick this apart:

1. the goals of philosophy are clear (since you can tell that this guy's answer is absolutely incorrect--though you have yet to mention what you believe the goals of philosophy to be) but,
2. the questions will never be answered

So you're saying philosophy leads from clear goals to unanswerable questions. Paradoxical.

Socrates said "I know that I do not know." I would recommend that you bring a similar humility to attempted definitions of philosophy.

Even ignoring that, by that standard, he is among the worst human being ever with around -80 billions of "profit" so far...

...and ignoring that Uber is structured specifically to make the board toothless – proof: major VCs invested in Uber have to resort to public blog posts because they can't get answers nor actions using the standard
tools of corporate governance...

...there's nothing wrong with faulting people for immoral but legal actions they take. Uber and its ilk are inflicting harm on the lower middle class by driving down the income and security of taxi drivers. The spoils go to middle-class customers (now) and VCs (theoretically, someday). Is that a good deal for society overall? Nobody knows. Wal-mart has similarly driven down prices and arguably made life easier for many people. It's also killed Main Street, created an underclass of employees earning minimum wage, and led to the consolidation of power within oligopolies in many markets.

It's not a sustainable solution because boycotts and other means of regulating companies without the power of law just don't work. But there's nothing wrong with it. In fact, it's probably a necessary on the way to actual regulation by laws.
