We may be able to develop better electricity storage to allow electric planes to be more practical than they currently are.

However, there's also a lot of interest in using biofuels for aviation, so you may see that in the mid-term future we're using carbon-based fuels but they're largely carbon-neutral.
Try cut back on the caffeine and try more glucose based drinks like Lucozade (i'm from UK, I've read Gatorade is the US equivalent). I found it gaveme a good boost of energy when pulling all-nighters when caffeine didn't do it for me.
So anyone that routinely wipes their device or doesn't travel with them is a criminal, and your best bet is to just comply and hope they're lazy. How does following any of that advice help the civilian? I only see how a lower adoption rate helps the border patrol.

Yes, first hand. They have everything on the government websites. As long as you have a sponsor and not working on something trivial you are safe.
Thank you. Websites are submitted manually, or else the image and information wouldn't be as accurate and specific.

As a digital nomad this is what worries me when I go to the US. I would never want to live in the US but try convincing a border guard...

I'm alway extremely nervous when encountering an immigration officer in the US because they are much more aggressive than the ones I've encountered in other countries (and I've traveled all over Europe and Asia).
It’s Not Too Late: How to Find Success with Getting Sober in 2017
Fair enough.

But wouldn't it make sense to group people who are risk aware together?

Like 90% of a population will live risk free lifes, and only 10% have high risk.

I mean, depending how risk friendly 10% of the population are, they could screw up the result and then it seems all people of that population are crazier than most of them really are...
Ireland was hit hard by the financial crisis; change the time scale on the graph to MAX to see the rewards Ireland reaped before that.

And their growth over the past few years appears to be back to pre-crisis speed.
Awesome. I will take a look at it, it seems I haven't kept up with the times.

From what I see, it comes with a profiler, which is an excellent addition and the UI seems to be very similar to XCode.
At one time is was common at Facebook to give employees traveling to certain countries burner laptops and given recent US policies I expect more companies to enact such policies.
Hmm... This sounds familiar!

Upper management told me that he "was a high performer" (i.e. had stellar

FYI: it's not, but it's been set by statute since 1845.
It will/has, but not in the vanilla flavour. Clojurescript, for example, makes most of the anti-JS arguments silly, although a lot of people think they look smart bashing JS. C# is better than JavaScript? No f way. C# isn't even better than Java, which a lot of high profile developers disgust more than JS.
"A man who was found guilty of reckless endangerment after his drone injured two people during Seattle’s 2015 Pride Parade, including a woman knocked unconscious, was sentenced Friday to 30 days in jail."

He knocked a woman unconscious!! 30 days in jail seems a little bit off to me but he could've injured someone badly...
Depends on perspective (although I guess that the US would've been a better example). There are many people who consider the Chinese government as much not evil as you do the government of Netherlands.
How Classical Cryptography Will Survive Quantum Computers
This is even crazier than people may think on the first look.

The TLS community knew that there would be problems with the deployment of TLS 1.3 with version intolerance, because there always have been. That's why the version negotiation was changed and a mechanism called GREASE was invented to avoid just such problems. But it seems BlueCoat has shown us that there's no way to anticipate all the breakage introduced by stupid vendors.

The takeaway message is this: Avoid Bluecoat products at all costs. These companies are harming the Internet and its progress.

Paypal Account Verified Hack Full Info.,Paypal Hack Account with Credit
it has some negatives imho:

No source for bits of it which makes it risky since it seems there's only one guy developing it.

Looking at it's comms it seems pretty lightweight, though it does generate a lot of messages.

Last time I looked the Sencha library it used was fairly old

That said if you've got a low-medium weight web app you want to build and don't care if it looks like windows, then it's dead easy (really 1 day or so, it's that easy).

Not just branding - also Pi fans at sites like Hackaday which downplay and dismiss any competing boards. For example, compare Brian Benchoff's article a year ago which argues the C.H.I.P. has been rendered irrelevant because it's $9 and the Pi Zero is $5 while ignoring the fact one has WiFi, with his article today arguing that this is a major step forward because $10 with WiFi is really cheaper than $5 without it while omitting any mention of the similarly-priced boards with WiFi that preceded it:

I think it has something to do with the transition from skeuomorphic metaphor to iconographic symbol.

As a skeuomorphism you might look at a magnifying glass symbol and say "that looks like a magnifying glass, which is a tool for making things bigger, therefore this thing makes things bigger".

As that symbol beds in and becomes part of language, it loses its connection, and its meaning is derived entirely from context and usage. I haven't used any Microsoft software for a while, but from my memory the floppy disc icon outlived floppy disks by quite a while.

You can argue that words shouldn't mean different things to what their etymology suggests, but that's the losing battle of a language prescriptivist, not a practical language user. I'm saddened when I see people use "utilize" instead of "use", or "everyday" instead of "every day" or whatever, but everyone knows what they mean. Like it or not, language changes.

So the magnifying glass has lost its etymology to popular usage. That's my theory anyway.
Just make sure to avoid Apollo release nr. 13 as it is rumoured to contain a nasty bug. Something with some storage method causing it to blow up I think it was.
I write enterprise apps almost exclusively in Ruby and a very small amount of SQL and HTML, but I'm guessing Delphi doesn't have some magical fairy dust that makes SQL unnecessary.

If you told me your stack is as you described, I'd say there's either some serious overengineering going on where you work, or you're solving a very different problem that would have been very complicated even in the Delphi world.

I think you're also vastly underestimating the operational work involved in deploying, maintaining, and syncing thousands of desktop apps in this type of environment. I'm personally happy I only have to get my software running on a couple nodes both with the exact same configuration.
AFAIK it runs S30+ which doesn't have anything to do with Symbian.
Wouldn't you say that as a parent it is your obligation to protect the child's privacy? The threat model doesn't even matter, there will be one eventually. All data can be used and combined (now or in the future). Is it that hard to imagine a future where recordings of a child can be used to recreate the voice of the same person as an adult...hardly.
I find a "where's the harm" attitude towards privacy/data collection very troubling...doubly so if you are making that decision for someone else who can't protect themselves yet. Ethically it's probably a bigger problem than having such a lax attitude about your own privacy (which if perfectly fine/freedom of choice).

And yes I also rant and rave about parents who post pictures of their children everywhere.

Because Ada compilers used to be targeted to the military, aviation and corporations with big pockets. Only in the last decade we saw the language getting an usable open source version thanks to the work of Ada Core and their contributions to GNAT.

All other surviving Ada compilers are commercial, following the same price practices as usual.

So many of us in the Pascal golden days were only able to buy Pascal compilers.

Just to put this in perspective, Turbo Pascal for Windows 1.5, the last TP version before Delphi was created, would be around 100 € on today's money. An Ada compiler would be at very least 5K €.

Also despite the famous "Why Pascal Is Not My Favorite Programming Language" assay from Brian Kernighan, the majority of Pascal compilers supported the UCSD, Apple and Borland extensions, so the actual Pascal dialect used by most of us was quite close to Ada83 in terms of features (minus generics).

In 2017, given the existance of GNAT, SPARK and updated Ada standards, Ada would be probably a better option.
Risk-adjusted pricing: If you buy one of the many alternatives out there, maybe you've got a 50% chance of it working? So the 'real' price doubles on those alternatives. People do this kind of risk mitigation in their head all the time.

When I say 'working' - i'm talking about the reviews of the alternatives that almost always talk about how hard it is to download the software and get them working, there's always some snag.
And I'll raise you a school full of kids who couldn't care less.
C++ exceptions definitely come at some non-zero cost, albeit very small on the happy path, both in terms of runtime and code size. RTTI also comes at a cost of higher memory footprint, but more importantly relying on RTTI is a sign of bad design in most cases. C printf is unsafe, but most IDEs figure this out and show appropriate warnings. The biggest problem with C++ streams is not lack of printf-like formatters, but the fact that formatting is part of stream state and is not as clearly separated from the printed content as in printf.
An aching desire for reality to be different doesn't imply that the advice isn't correct.

Unfortunately, it will take total collapse for people to understand that we have an impossible lifestyle - meaning a wrong philosophy about life, nature and each other.

It's not about what we need to do, it's about what we need to stop doing.

And I think that's the impossible task, because that means dismantling our current 'economy' and rebuilding it on new principles, new mathematics, etc.

So it seems the big challenge with landing and taking off from the moon is carrying that much fuel. A robotic module on the moon that converts water, carbon and sunlight to rocket fuel should solve that problem.

Is anyone else imagining the mission is going to discretely drop such a module when it's in the moon's shadow or do I just have an overactive imagination?

The proper attitude depends on the situation - the place and time to not be sycophantic towards those abusing power is e.g. at the ballot box, but not when giving travel advice to a foreigner - who can't change the system but have to work with it to do what they want.
I think that, as Elon pointed out, it can really be an interesting source of income to deploy entirely on the "Mars Project".

I really root for 'em even though I know that China has started working on a similar business-model-trip back in '03 and they still haven't made any public announcement or published a precise launch year...
yes this was always the reason given for not using Delphi instead of making a web app in every enterprise I worked at. Every time I said "hey how about we do this in Delphi, we'll have it finished in a couple of weeks" the argument was "but we'll have to put it through the windows guys and get a package made and distribute it to the users", so we made a web app. a couple of hundred grand later we had a web app, it wasn't as good as what the Delphi one would have been, it was slower, less features, but hey our 20 users didn't need to download it. lmao, I was paid by the hour.
Julia's startup time is the biggest issue holding people to leave Python behind, as I understand from some talks I saw online.

Still I am hopeful that they will overcome them, as Julia is an interesting language for those of us that know Dylan.

I disagree with parts of this. Geographical limits do mean some places end up paying more, and some scummy distributors only stock the packs with a higher markup, but on the whole, the boards are available on their own at the right price.

Your real problem is availability. You see a product launch, want 10, 100, 1000 to use in everything from the sprinklers to the toaster and then hit a website where 200,000 other hackers have had exactly the same thought. They're ferociously popular...

So what would you rather? They hold off sales and announcement until they have a million units rotting in warehouses around the world (like a console release)? Perhaps they should spend twice as much ramping up production to burst in the first month (and charge more). Or pre-orders? Kickstarter? Serious here, what option is better (on price, fairness and convenience to you) than what they're currently doing?

In a month or two you'll (again, slightly dependant on geography) be able to order a hundred of these without an issue. If you really are putting in a big order, talk direct to the distributor and they can adjust their order (and maybe their price to you).

Ultimately you don't have to pay more, you just have to be patient.
All programmers have different output. How is it even a debate? Some people are more productive than others. Just like one novelist takes 10 years to finish his novel another writes 2 every year.
The second party in this instance is the organisation, including the user. The enterprise owns the pipe, the router, the endpoint device, the chair the user sits on, and the time being used by the employee while they are not on a break. They are a representative of the enterprise while they use a workplace computer, and while they do have an expectation of privacy on devices under certain circumstances, that is balanced with my need to protect the enterprise from bad actors. I am obliged to MitM the significant majority of SSL connections, but I do so after acquiring informed consent from the employee. This is via both workplace policy to which they must agree to remain employed, and via clickthrough notification on logon that SSL is intercepted and use is monitored. In exchange, I will only make use of information collected that is pertinent to such protection activities. For instance, if I see a Bookface post about a party at the weekend posted during a break, that is discarded. If a post is captured that is sending business-confidential information to a competitor, that is collected and used in a formal process.

If you break my ability to monitor the use of my devices, your product is dropped from my network. You'll also find that it is dropped from the entire education sector. That is why Chrome has backed off this change.
I made the switch 3 year ago to GNU/Linux. It is free and better for software development than OSX (same order of magnitude) or Windows (by a lot). Microsoft is investing high in marketing now, though.
And I think you are right.

The Extraordinary Theorems of John Nash – With Cédric Villani [video]
Except no.

Plastic milk containers and bottles have to be thoroughly washed before recycling as the plastic is incredibly easy to corrupt with contaminants. Every roadside recycling scheme I've been a part of has required all tins, bottles and glass to be washed before recycling. (Seems pointless in the case of tins as the food debris will be burnt off along with paint etc as the metals are melted).

PET washing in a recycling line needs to be higher temperature as they also use the washing to disolve the glues used for outside labels etc.

The integrated washing of all bottles joining a reusable glass bottle line likely used a fraction of the cleaning energy now expended.

> I bet the lag would be terrible.

If they could route the link through a constellation of LEO satellites, then the lag would probably be comparable to what you get in a typical multiplayer FPS. Ground to LEO and back is 1ms to 14ms, depending on how high in LEO the satellite is (assuming satellite directly above your head). Space is pretty close to us.

As for how to get that constellation up, well, SpaceX is working on making that pretty cheap.
I can see a novelty use that would quickly die off. If you want to talk to your kids via a teddy bear instead of phone or Skype, then that is up to them. The Demo for the toy shows distant relatives using the toy to talk their kids/grand-kids.

But the purpose of the device has nothing to do with the security of the device.
I thought the research that produced the legend of the 10x programmer showed that he was 10x better than the worst programmers who were still good enough to be employed, and only ~2.5x better than the "average" programmer.
Indy is problematic there are other (commercial quality) http libraries around. Indy works and has source available and has a great set of maintainers but it's quality is variable.

Oh, please, cut this cosplay out. In every surgery room of the whole world you could see how chemical compounds administered to patients would turn them unconscious and back. This implies that the consciousness is a product of the brain, not some immaterial substance, divine presence or other kind of abstract crap. This also implies that it is not mere an abstract idea of so-called pure reason ("soul", "I" and "god" are such idea, "awareness" isn't), but a valid linguistic label associated to a real high-level biological phenomena (a set of coordinated processes).

In every neurology department which deals with brain injures and pathology one could see the evidences that the states of consciousness and even its pretense or absence are bound by particular parts of the brain, which, in turn, is an artifact conditioned by the evolutionary forces and constraints of this particular universe and its physical laws.

The way medical science went from Phineas Gage to modern maps of the brain centers, insights into how the vision sub-system works, etc. constitutes the experimental proofs you are asked for.

The proof could be considered still incomplete (but nevertheless it is valid because there is not a single contradiction in what is experimentally confirmed), because there is no way to describe step-by-step the whole development from a single fertilized egg to you, but there is no doubt that there is nothing extra to that mere "mechanical" process, and that the mind is what the brain does and that conscious, which some people would call primordial awareness, is mere a product of the brain activity, which can be affected by chemical compounds and even switched on and off, which, BTW, happens every time you fall asleep (because it is not required) and wake up.
