Investors would be interested. They're always trying to figure out which company has an advantage over competition. They want to know before it plays out in the real world, if possible.
In GHC, you can get the "this is the default when it satisfies those constraints" behavior with DefaultSignatures.

Whereas the author of this post concludes with, "It’s not the pipeline. It’s never the pipeline. It’s the culture at the end of the pipeline, the culture that generates articles like this."

I have to agree, and am only bothering to comment and upvote in the hope that others will see this and take a moment to reflect on this problem, and really consider this author's point of view.

Maybe a for-profit company isn't the structure you want to establish towards that goal. Such an entity is going to have inherent incentives to generate and increase profits through any means, good or bad. Management will have to bow to those needs and they'll have their own profit motive to do so. It would take a miracle of human nature to make sure the company behaves in a 'non-evil' manner to that end in every situation for all of time.
It sounds like the techs were not on a fishing expedition, but came across the images in performance of their normal duties.

>The hard drive arrived at Best Buy’s Brooks, Kentucky facility on November 25, 2011, and an initial search was performed by a Best Buy employee at 9:00 p.m. on November 28, 2011, revealing that the “drive appears to have been restored, underlying data visible.” (Bates 853.) Best Buy called Rettenmaier less than thirty minutes later; he authorized “Level 2” repair and identified “[p]ictures, excel files, quicken files, text and word documents” as the most important files to recover. (Id.)

>On or about December 20, 2011, Best Buy technician John “Trey” Westphal observed what he deemed to be inappropriate content on the hard drive. (Dkt. 152 at 4.) His discovery occurred after the data recovery repair for images—“to determine that the repair was successful [Westphal] must access the files to verify that the files were recovered intact.” (Bates 823.)

The later search of Rettenmaier's home turned up child pornography on 5 separate device. Those facts lead me to stand where I do on this issue.
> Edge was disqualified because it seemed to bypass the hosts file and wouldn’t load pages from unique domains. I can do measurements so I might revisit this, but it wouldn’t have been a fair comparison as-is.

Is it surprising that Edge might bypass the hosts file?

It surprises me, as I thought all outgoing requests were routed through `/etc/hosts` or equiv, but I don't spend too much time in Windows these days.

This seems to be a victory for bitcoin. Why would a government entity know what to do with a purposely designed non governmental decentralized currency? Especially a profit seeing ETP loaded on top with 0.xx% commission? It's ludicrous to imagine the SEC jumping on this train, BTC will outlive them. As for the Wrinkles twins, they are profit seekers, nothing more. The purpose of a decentralized currency is to be a decentralized currency, enabling peer to peer outside of sovereign intervention economics. This is a non sovereign movement regulated by supply, demand, peers sprinkled with occasional robbery here and there. This digital currency which will outlive many sovereign states that currently exist.

Monoids aren't just relevant to cryptography. Any structure with an associative "+" operator forms a monoid (technically semi-group, but whatevs.) Lists are a prime example.
This is somewhat false. It is true that Bitcoin can currently support about 7 txps. However, this isn't the whole picture.

1) A much better number to use is 4,500/10 minutes, because if the transactions aren't used in a prior second, they can still be used in the next.

2) One-way ratcheting timelocked channels (these payment channels work kind of like a giftcard) are ridiculously easy to implement -- basically just use this scriptPubKey:
```
OP_IF
<Bob's public key> OP_CHECKSIGVERIFY
OP_ELSE
<now+8 days> OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY OP_DROP
OP_ENDIF
<Alice's public key> OP_CHECKSIG
```(from https://21.co/learn/intro-to-micropayment-channels/)
These only require two transactions total to send many transactions from Alice to Bob. Even as technologies like Lighting Network are further developed, which make these channels full duplex, institutions looking to get high volume trustless transactions through should have very little challenge adopting simpler channels now.

3) The number of transactions is completely separate from the amounts that can be transacted. Large value transactions move through bitcoin as easily as small, so even if the number of transactions were bottle-necked, this is still very useful for settling larger amounts with finality.

Well said. However, some define "personal life" differently. Some meditate in caves. Some climb mountains, and maybe jump off them. Others like to hack on stuff.

Cool! You mean you're organizing or participating?

Hope to see more competitions like this, and more participation from both smaller and bigger players.

I imagine if the little guys get enough press from things like this, the bigger ones will be forced to participate, or risk losing out on awareness of their tech's capabilities.

Not sure racing around a track is the best challenge or not but it's something!

Good luck. Let us know how it goes with a post here!
MBA Dropout here. Sorry to break the news, but you don't actually learn anything in business school. Warren Buffett, Peter Thiel, Paul Graham - you won't hear any of those names in business school. Maybe some of the elite schools might talk about those guys, or even invite them to come speak at the business school. But they usually record those talks, so you can just watch them on YouTube.
FWIW you can abuse dynamic in C# to get multiple dispatch, although not with much static checking.

using System;

class Foo { }
class Bar { }

static class Program {
static void Example(Foo l, Foo r) { Console.WriteLine("Foo Foo"); }
static void Example(Foo l, Bar r) { Console.WriteLine("Foo Bar"); }
static void Example(Bar l, Foo r) { Console.WriteLine("Bar Foo"); }
static void Example(Bar l, Bar r) { Console.WriteLine("Bar Bar"); }

static object Create(string arg) { return arg == "Foo" ? (object)new Foo() : new Bar(); }

static void Main(string[] args) {
dynamic l = Create(args.Length > 0 ? args[0] : "Foo");
dynamic r = Create(args.Length > 1 ? args[1] : "Bar");
Example(l, r);
}
}
Well that's downright reasonable. Bravo, 1966 federal lawmakers.
Thanks for replying. I'm a layman in this field, so I'm not quite sure about how to parse your response. But wanted to make sure you were aware of the existence of Gene Drive. To me it seems dangerous, but I'd love to hear thoughts from someone more educated in the topic:

But contrary anecdata -- if I have a choice between a great app not in App Store and a just ok app in store, I buy from the Mac app store.

The experience across multiple Macs and new Macs is too convenient to give up.

This and sandboxing. You can do sandboxing outside the App Store, but almost no developer does. I don't want most apps to have access to my complete filesystem.

Loaded, in fact to most engineers.
I used to run open source licensing while helping to build code.google.com (I helped write Subversion back in the day, and built significant parts of code.google.com).

These days, I still help out running open source licensing and compliance at a high level, but have just about handed all of it off to very good people who take care of it. I still get involved in M&A, policy issues, large or complex fires, etc. Even that is slowing down as people become more and more experienced. Which is great[1]

Now I spend most of my time running the C++ language teams (compiler/toolchains/core libraries/etc).

So, lawyer wise, these days, if they directly ask me for help, usually it means something has gone wrong.

[1] Truthfully, there are not enough really good open source lawyer types who actually understand the interplay of actual engineering and open source really well. The more i can help create, the better.

> People with employer provided coverage don't share the costs of those high risk individuals.

Employer group plans are already large group plans that include individuals who would not have been insurable in the pre-ACA private marketplace. The exchanges were a mechanism to achieve that effect in the individual market. (And, additionally, everybody who pays taxes under the ACA was supposed to be contributing to covering the loss risk of high-risk individuals in the exchange plans, but then Republican Congresses choose not to fund the risk corridors as a means of sabotaging the ACA.)

When I moved countries (also 4 years ago), you could. However, you would lose the list of all applications that you purchased (this also happens with purchased music). However, when you repurchase them, you get the application for free. Of course, it is a bit difficult to guess for each application if you already had it and at the same version.

Even after re-purchasing an app that you already bought, it does not always show up in your purchases list. E.g., I bought Pixelmator before I moved. It won't show up in my purchases list. I have to purchase it again (for free) every time I install a Mac.

The next time, I will just try to keep a local bank account and will not migrate the account.

The cardinal error in "helping" addicts is to try and fix the addict's problems for them. As you said, that's impossible. Even being available to provide support rarely makes any sense, because addicts try to divest themselves of their problems instead of solving them — so they might ask you for help on something they could do themselves, or on something they think you could fix but actually can't (e.g. "Can you keep an eye on how much I drink tonight?" This just pits my will against yours.)

Detoxing, preventing withdrawal symptoms, transportation — addicts often can't provide these things for themselves, so if asked, they're good ways to help out. But addicts have to choose themselves to stay on a path that leads away from that addiction. That will be the case even if that path ends up being as simple as a pill you can take.

Almost no developer uses sandboxing outside the Mac App store. Most apps outside the App store can see your whole filesystem and modify random files in your home directory. That is gross.

I'm the developer. Jettison and HistoryHound have always been available as direct purchases as well as through the Mac App Store. Given the sales volume I got from the Mac App Store vs sales through my website (see the comments about lousy discoverability), it wasn't worth investing more time jumping through Apple's hoops to ship products that would be inferior to what I can write outside the App Store. That doesn't mean I "didn't want to do the work" - it means it doesn't make sense for my situation and my apps. And that's just the case for those two. Two other popular apps I've written - Default Folder X and App Tamer - are impossible to implement in the sandboxed environment. In cases like that, Apple's sandboxing constrains what devs can viably do - not everyone can take the risk of bypassing the App Store, and if they can't, the Mac community misses out because those apps just never get written.

Great idea! I remember doing this 10 years ago following a tutorial which had a form to fill out, and then downloading a shareware font editor. I'll bookmark this site for my next personal font project.

This might be a little morbid, but I had an idea which would fit this site well. Promoting your site to those who would like to preserve a very personal aspect of their lost loved one. Was thinking about this because my next font project involves me going through my mother's letters and scrapbooks for lettering samples. I lost her two years ago and think a font of her writing would be one of the best ways of remembering. I think a lot of other people would feel the same.
To quote jacquesm and MisterBastahrd:

"No, it's considered voluntary. Except that if you don't comply with the voluntary wellness program you will end up with a steep financial penalty.
In other words, it's mandatory."

"There's no difference between 'voluntary' and 'mandatory' if the penalty for not doing the 'voluntary' thing is so harsh that you can't afford to refrain."

You're right, there's nothing in this bill that explicitly forces your insurer to sequence your genome in the first place. HOWEVER, if a wellness program asked for your genome, and you denied it, then you would incur a heavy penalty. This is new.
Sure, but there's usually a reason a particular proof is used in lectures: it's either much faster or much more comprehensible than the others :)
Agreed, and then for example when you go to further reexamine performance and maybe try to fit parts of the binaries into cache, then you're trying to possibly optimize at two-different levels at the same time. This isn't to say that Rust will have the same problem, I hope it avoids it entirely. But if the question is why is there a vague feeling of dread when Rust declares a turing complete type system - a C++ template meta-programming ghost is the reason for me.
macOS is now on a yearly release schedule, so it is logical that the deltas are smaller. If you look at the typical OS X release timeframe of yesteryear, there are quite some great improvements changes:

- Introduction of an OS-level hypervisor (Hypervisor.framework).

- Much better security and resistance against rootkits (SIP).

- A new filesystem (APFS).

- The introduction of a far more modern programming language for development (Swift).

- A new graphics API (Metal).

Sure, some coincide with features added to iOS, but I see that as a strength. There are also user-visible changes, but I care less about them. To me, the WIMP paradigm seems to have reached a local optimum and I don't think anyone is helped by Windows 8 or GNOME 3.0-like experiments.
