Seriously though: I was considering using Gmail contextual gadgets, but it seems google has just dumped those, left the tooling and admin panels not to work and the documentation to rot at least 3 revisions earlier.

That's in line with my experience. We had a gadget working a few years back (a button to create a ticket, for our support teams); a year and half ago we had to make an update, and the gadget simply never came back - even after we reverted. And the tools are useless to identify these problems.
Yeah but where do those highest marginal rates kick in? Especially with the Canadian dollar this week being around 74 cents.
Whereas for example, tobacco smoke has been shown to be especially harmful. I think the popularity of smoking tobacco has shaped the views of many as to the nature of smoking anything else. As you say, it's hard to imagine smoking anything is a good idea, but that doesn't mean that it's all COPD, heart attacks, and strokes either.

Just anecdotally, people who smoke a lot of cannabis rather than vaping or eating it seem to me, to get a lot more upper respiratory inactions, bronchitis and the like. Will that shave years off your life? Maybe, maybe not, but it's still clearly something to pay attention to, when the alternatives to smoke exist.
Your new proposed version is great. The problem is that it requires deep thinking and research. People can't be expected to produce that on the spot.

Take something like that President Trump disallowed the BBC and CNN from his press conferences. If I wanted to mention that as a rebuttal to someone bringing up something about trump, I really have no other recourse than pointing this out, with sarcasm.

So I don't know, imagine someone says trump is committed to fair coverage and the facts, and the snide response is "yep, this is why he banned from his conferences the organizations, like the BBC, that never wanted to be there in the first place, since they were obviously perfectly happy to make up any old quote without even trying to send any correspondents."

I don't have any other point to make in this hypothetical example - isn't the sarcasm enough? How would you write it, for this hypothetical example?
Tom Scott did a nice YouTube video related to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTzp76JXsoY
The average price of a detached home in Metro Vancouver (includes suburbs of Vancouver) in February was $1.76 million. That's down from $1.82 million a year earlier. 99.7% of properties in the City of Vancouver proper are valued at more than $1 million. The average price for a detached home in the City of Vancouver in 2016 was $2.77 million.

I've had some trouble finding closely comparable values but it seems like the median SF detached home price is ~$1 million. Even considering the exchange rate, it seems like Vancouver is more expensive.

Certainly when one compares typical incomes Vancouver is dramatically less affordable than San Francisco.

I also had a failed interview with Triplebyte that left a bad taste in my mouth. I experienced similarly condescending tones and disrespect from the interviewer. I was told to prepare and share/explain code I'd already written, but when the call started I was instead given three problem options for a live-coding session.

To be fair, they were super friendly and responsive to my critique, and I found their interview notes/follow-up helpful and accurate. Still, if you're going to provide interviews as a service, you should work hard to make the interview a positive experience for the candidate. I'm loath to apply to any company using Triplebyte for now, but I'd probably do it if I really wanted the job.

I think it'd be an interesting thing to study. When I was young and running a lot, I could beat (recreational) cyclists uphill, but they would smoke me on downhills. So there might be the kernel of a fun study there.

I guess my hypothesis is that, given equally fit bikers and runners, there's an incline where they will climb at equal speeds. Furthermore, at steep inclines, the runners will be faster and at shallower inclines, the bikers will be faster.

Doesn't seem too unlikely (or interesting, actually), given the weight of the bicycle. But the general shape of the curves might be interesting.
You are right, but not right enough to be "theoretically impossible" territory. Click my name and see my other comments in this thread.

I would recommend the game SpaceChem. It is outstandingly parallel to programming in the sense there is branching, testing, looping logic and similar. You'll probably even love the game yourself. It has great commanding/minion play and a good story if they are a capable reader (the first being the first approach to teach boys, the second girls if you follow teaching advice for typical kids)

Minecraft does have a bunch of programming mods. Often times letting you make minions to do stuff for you (some cases in python or a custom language).

You could also consider starting with electricity. I've been through college classes for both programming and electricity. And the success of actually learning to read/make/trouble shoot electrical diagrams is much higher than it is for programming.

changing the line (and what follows is just one line with badly similated
line wrapping) from this:

ssh-dss AAAAB3NzaC1kc3MAAAEBAKYJenaYvMG3nHwWxKwlWLjHb77CT2hXwmC8Ap...

to this [4]:

from="10.1.1.1",command="/home/remoteuser/cron/validate-rsync" ssh-dss AAAAB3Nza...

[...] script that looks something like this :

echo "Rejected"
;;
*\(*)
echo "Rejected"

# ...
rsync\ --server*)
$SSH_ORIGINAL_COMMAND

All this and later comments is why one should not use SSH for batch jobs,
and for unsupervised rsync file transfer in particular. Using SSH as
a transport makes too complex system, and the script above is a fine example
of getting it almost correct, but not quite (not using STDERR and not
signaling an error with exit code are but two things that are wrong with the
script).

Wrapping rsync in stunnel (http://dozzie.jarowit.net/trac/wiki/RsyncSSL) is
much saner approach.
Journalism is the art of explaining to others what you haven't really understood yourself...
Where we disagree is probably in using the language of "privilege" and related concepts. I see no point to it, and it's probably harmful in the long run. It's imprecise (typically dealing only with vague averages), ignores detriments, ignores privileges when they imply the existence of detriments (i.e. there is certainly female privilege, but it is often ignored because that implies that some male privilege could be counter-balanced to some extent by some male detriment, i.e. not being a female), applies poorly to individuals (because they are so multi-dimensional), ignores complicated combinations in favor of simple ones that seem only to infer positive correlation (white cis male etc...), and is championed most loudly by means of pathos appeals. Why bother with that framework?

I don't think we should stop talking about gender, or class, or race, but we ought to be more careful about it, especially when we try to assign causes, and especially when we talk about individuals. Focus more on ethos and logos. Use full data sets, talk about positive and negative, talk about interference both constructive and destructive. Make predictions and update when your predictions are falsified. Make predictions about data before you look at the data to see if your priors are well-calibrated. Talk about consequences more than feelings.

For the last point, it's mostly a complaint about using a (mean) average for everything without considering whether the underlying distribution makes such a statistic worthwhile to use or not. Consider a block of houses valued roughly the same amount, then some rich dude comes in, knocks one down, builds a towering mega-house that hits the limits of what is legally allowed, and then sells it to some other rich dude. His house has bumped the (mean) average house value of the neighborhood up considerably, but no house in the neighborhood is actually worth the average. Talking about the (mean) average is then pretty useless, and no one is (literally) going to buy into one of the normal houses being worth the average of the neighborhood. The median average is much more useful, at least for property values. But even then you'll want to look at the full distribution to say whether the median is really more useful or not, and when you're buying or selling a specific individual house, you're going to want even more details about that specific house that could drastically change the valuation one way or another.
D-Wave Used for Machine Vision
The idea that cops respond with reasonable force in a rational manner is a fantasy. They are not some innocent victims of misunderstanding, they regularly fight back with as much force as they are allowed to employ, and if noone's watching a whole lot more. It's part of their dichotomous mentality. There is tons of evidence for the idea that cops regularly appoint themselves judge, jury and occasionally even executioner. Having the right information means nothing if your entire mindset is bent around the idea that you're there to mete out punishment to the deserving and all you're doing is waiting for someone to stick out their neck to be made an example of.

The Longest Personality Study of All Time
This is a team/job culture question (but I can understand both sides). For some large teams this is a non brainer and some other teams in other companies will get near heart attacks when this happens ;)
Reason?
I have actually used formal methods on large, complex, real-word systems in my day job. This is how I know that even when using formal methods you must compromise. I find that the only people who think you can "just" prove programs correct are those who have never tried to do it for anything but a toy program. For example, Xavier Leroy, one of the worlds experts on deductive verification believes that the approach is feasible only for programs of a few hundred to a few thousands lines, and even then at a very high cost.

Formal methods do work, and work very well, but not at all in the way people who have never used them on real-world systems think. Formal methods are on a spectrum of cost/benefit with an exponential curve of diminishing returns. For example, to go from, say, 98% confidence to 99.5% you need to expend about the same effort as going from 80% to 95%.

Forget arbitrary or "random" software. While there have been teams who have worked months or years on deductively proving some program correct, no team has ever been able to prove the correctness of even a mid-sized application. You can set your standards as high as you like, but we cannot at the moment figure out how to completely prove the correctness of real-world software of any significant size even in principle.

This page is awesome. It's so much easier to read vs. AWS. The pie chart explaining why they are cheaper is well-designed (the use of layering to group the breakdown, numeric labels, aligning the important segment to 12 o'clock) and effective (uncommon for pie charts.)

I've always appreciated how their time-limited free tier is based on dollars rather than some proxy (e.g. how AWS limits which kind of things you can use/sizes of things/quotas etc. for their time-limited free tier) and this page helps clearly separate the "free trial" vs. "free quota" which AWS makes a mess of in their documentation in my opinion.

Minor gripe/idea for the future:

I didn't realize (maybe it's new?) that you can get a free f1-micro. It's too bad that the minimum container engine cluster size is 3 with f1-micros.. it'd be cool to have a hosted/managed k8s cluster that was free by default until you scaled up (with some effort (e.g. node pools to use larger instances/pre-emptible instances when scaled) it could work very well for personal projects that receive very little load/mostly receive load when I'm actively using them.)

That's not to say that I don't appreciate what is free today or that I can't afford a small personal K8S cluster :)

In my mind Flynn has more of an application focus - something comparable to Heroku with git deploys etc.

I wanted to run a regular (every 10mins) task. I created a container that had the hyper cli installed that spawned a task container that exited on completion. This worked really well for what I was doing. They're thinking of adding this as a hyper sh feature: https://trello.com/c/JfyGyBKS/45-serverless-cron

I didn't consider using Flynn. Just didn't really have Flynn down as being for this kind of thing. Of course another difference is that Hyper.sh is a service; Flynn is a project that I need to self host.
> Einstein is only 160

I don't believe Einstein is ever recorded as having taken an IQ test.

In any case, IQ scores quickly lose their meaning when you get to 160 or above. Try taking a physical fitness test designed to make fine distinctions across the general population, and extending it to Olympic athletes. The athletes would just laugh at you.

> Which is under 1% of the population, especially in US where the average IQ is 98. ... I wonder why you feel the need to down-play the smartness of that group with your first and last sentence.

It's the use of words like "super-smart" that bugs me.

Sorry to be the one that has negative feelings about it.

Email is one of those rare concepts that is really hard to change or enhance. I can easily see Google abandoning this feature in 5 years.

People need email service just because of the email function, nothing more than that.

It's concept clearly has some limitations (attachment sizes, layout inconsistencies and so on) but it also doesn't have any deal-breaker problems.

Introducing external services integration to email sounds like taking a huge risk. How people manage their invoices, to-do lists and other stuff is changing faster than ever. These add-ons will require active development all the time to keep themselves up-to-date.

As a developer, I wouldn't risk investing in this feature.
In my experience, it was kind of hard to get someone to reply back to me when I had a problem.
I approach stuff like this from a position of cognitive liberty. People are free and will think and feel whatever it is that they think and feel. Those thoughts and feelings inform their decisions and thus their behavior, and the behavior is what we ought to care about. Speech is a type of behavior and we ought to care about it because it influences culture and politics and everything else that arises from acts of communication.

I make one assumption, which I think is well founded (based on utility), which is that it is impossible to persuade people through direct confrontation. Effective persuasion is based on presentation of facts and ideas to those who are receptive to them, but nobody ever became receptive by being confronted directly, and that can be counter-productive. It can make a potentially receptive person become closed to persuasion. They will, in essence, deny facts (even to the point of rejecting empirical proof) and go entirely with mood affiliation and tribal loyalty.

When trying to do political communication of any kind the decision becomes a decision between trying to persuade someone or trying to "other" them and therefore signal to your in-group that they are an enemy. American political communication has really stopped trying to persuade anyone of anything and is now focused entirely on "othering". When I read your initial comment it came across as "othering". You spent a lot of words telling someone that their interpretations were wrong, that they should think and feel differently than they expressed thinking and feeling, and that their disagreement with your position was fundamentally unreasonable.

The premise of cognitive liberty is an assertion that our own thoughts and feelings are just that: our own. They may or not be rational or reasonable or even useful. They might indeed be bad ideas, that do more harm than good. Still, we are free creatures, and we are free to have those thoughts and being criticized on the grounds of what you think is an untenable argument to make because it denies that fundamental freedom.

All of this is just a long-winded way of trying to motivate my next sentences. Disagreement is natural and unavoidable and I believe it is beneficial to tolerate it in most circumstances. Othering and/or thought-policing those who disagree with us is actively harmful, and we've seen the consequences (his name is Donald). The tacit assumption that "my worldview is the best one and my morals are unassailable and those who disagree with me are irrational and/or immoral" is a serious problem. I've seen worse examples of it than your post, but your post was an example of it.
I really dislike when people put words in my mouth.
