I lived in Tokyo. After moving back to Seattle it took a really long time to accept how empty things are (few people on the streets) and how alone we are most of the time. Driving in a car alone compared to riding the packed Yamanote line every morning was a huge difference.

Japan also is the source of a strange culture bound syndrome sometimes called "Paris syndrome" -- which is somewhat related to the lack of the kind of micro-ceremonies that are encoded in Japanese manners.

Joseph Stiglitz Says  Inequality and Unearned Income Kills the Economy
> A backed cooperative is fine, so long as other providers are allowed to continue to operate (should they choose to), so as to establish baselines and competition.

That generally doesn't work out very well. If the incumbent keeps half the customers, the cooperative then has almost all of the same expenses but half as much revenue. And so does the incumbent. So costs per customer are double until one of them goes out of business.

This is what's happening now in the areas that have a legacy telephone company and a legacy cable company. The telephone companies have essentially given up on upgrading their infrastructure and are just milking what already exists until the cable companies put them out of business, because coax can carry more traffic than telephone wire. And neither of them is interested in installing fiber while the other still exists, because it would force the other to either do the same or slash prices, either of which is worse for both of them than the status quo.
The End of Welfare as We Know It – America’s once-robust safety net is no more
I really wish color-related talks and tools would upgrade to wider-than-sRGB color gamuts, now that many modern devices can display them.
Certainly, and analyses like these always ignore the fact that there are absolutely people (a majority?) who had horrifying childhoods and who don't end up mass murderers because of it. The truth is twofold: these people are absolutely responsible for their actions (as anyone should be, I personally think 18 is too high) but we can at the same time recognize that society's worst (and Breivik is undoubtedly in that category) do not necessarily choose to become the worst, and that the psychological conditions that make it seem like it's ok to kill people are not entirely within their control.

Incidents like these are a public health issue like any other: they point to broader deficits in societal attitudes towards medicine. Specifically in these cases it is the extreme stigmatization of mental illness in much of the Western world (for lack of a better term and not to say that it's nonexistent outside the West, just that I don't know) that makes it difficult for people to receive the care they want and need.
I just moved to LA from Beijing. I'm shocked at how clean the air is, there are never bad AQI days (at least nothing over 200), and...I can smell flowers. I visited often enough, so it shouldn't have been a surprise, but I realized I wasn't really smelling anything but dust and air pollution for 9 years.
Thanks,

Author here, yes the observation that it is immutable is correct. One approach you can use is to have some lighter-weight representation for the most recent data. Then have one or more FSTs representing the older data. As time permits keep merging the new data and the older ones down into new larger FSTs. Merging them is straightforward since you can iterate the contents in order, which is the order you need to build new ones. In this way, it is very similar to having a WAL up front, and one or more segments backing an LSM storage.
The Employable Bootcamp Candidate
Yes, but liberal democracy respects the various human rights, including to free speech and freedom of the press. It also doesn't have a state religion. Turkey is an illiberal democracy, and rapidly becoming less so.
Yes this patently absurd. I am guessing you weren't allowed to discuss your code or choices with anyone either correct?
So I've personally made 6 figures on TSLA. If I'm an idiot, what does that make someone who thought they were smarter than someone who would invest in TSLA?

Here's the thing about investment: whether you're playing the long or short game, the only way you make money is through stock volatility. And as far as volatility is concerned, TSLA has been fantastic to play over and over again.
Very true! In the same vein though, the selection at places like Whole Foods is one of the best parts of coming home (from the third world).

One of the hardest things for me to adapt to is how "liberal" America has become. It's not an objectively bad thing, but I feel like I went into a coma and woke up 20 years later in a world I can barely relate to. As an example, I'm thinking about stuff like Miley Cyrus' performance. And a lot of the social justice stuff -- I really just missed a whole lot of it and I've literally had to learn tons of new words and concepts to catch up and not appear bigoted. Living abroad in a more "conservative" culture and then coming back and adapting with a snap of the fingers is tough. The weird thing is that I was considered "very liberal" when I first left the US.

The hardest thing of all is perhaps how violent and aggressive and loud and rude Americans can be (in public, to strangers). It can be downright frightening, coming from Asia.

Edit: Also, I can't stop bowing to people. Asian Americans probably sometimes suspect I'm racist.
Rust doesn't require a garbage collector
The point of transition is always the same... control. If we could change the things that were wrong with such people, and then it was a choice for them to be so changed or remain as they are (and in jail)... that's how you transition from one way of life to another.

Unfortunately right now we don't have that kind of ability; the best you have is the educated guess of some doctors or parole officers. We're stuck because on one hand we understand that this guy was sick, but on the other hand he's sick in a way we can't fix, and he's dangerous. If it were a physical ailment with the same qualities, we'd still feel a combination of pity and revulsion.
I definitely agree with the Ico and Shadow of the Colossus recommendations.

I'm not disputing that some of the rules around auto sales are problematic, but it seems to me like the limiter on Tesla's ability to sell cars is its ability to produce them.

Why call it reverse culture shock? It's simply a realization that the United States not the best country in every regard. And in many regards it's failing badly.

ATT is deploying lots of fiber lately, take a look at their map[1]. It takes a lot of time and labor to deploy though, so it may show a city on their map when they haven't covered very much of it. In terms of organization, they have huge advantages over google: they have a local labor force, including big equipment for running new street level cable -- because they need it occasionally; they have existing customers they can sell to and project use for; they already know how to get access to poles and navigate local government processes, because they've been building street level boxes forever.

Also, I don't know if Google was doing it, but ATT is running fiber on streets with factory spliced connectors custom sized to run to the poles that are already present, so the street team doesn't have to do any splicing.

I think you need to listen to more of his interviews, look over his plans, examine his side businesses... They are all remarkably consistent with a long term vision he lays out years in advance of any business dealings. For example, The Boring Company is his exploration of what they can do on mars to avoid radiation and create habitats. His mars beliefs go back years.

I hope this doesn't apply to you, but I feel really sorry for people who can't believe in altruistic motivations. It seems people who don't believe anyone works for the greater good often disbelieve because they have only selfish motivations, so imagining someone motivated by altruism or higher order goals sounds fantastical, and they can only understand it as a "trick."

Further, I don't think it is at all clear that those obstacles are insurmountable. They are technical problems. Nasa thinks solutions are possible and worth discussing:

http://www.space.com/29512-mars-mission-radiation-nasa-chall...
Musk has stated that his ambition is in colonizing Mars. To achieve that he's building the companies to make it a profitable endeavor. When he succeeds he will have built a path for others to follow to also have a commercially viable option to explore space.

Travis on the other hand is apparently running a fraternity that spies on you. About the worst of the worst coming out of Uber.
The comment I replied to talked about Uber, not TSLA. I can't understand your need to brag about how much money you made, but yeah, it would be cool if you could read first.
The cable companies might be changing this. I'm in suburbia, consistently get 125/25, and noticed the other day on Comcast's site that I can get 300Mb down if I want to upgrade.
There's a surprisingly large cross section of people paid extremely well in Google.

The company is heavily automated and very profitable, which means they can attribute those profits to the humans largely responsible for them with accuracy that isn't often seen outside finance. The bonus structure is extremely kind to the highly productive.
I'd say knocking the investors of a mission driven company that's a for-profit company doesn't make them an idiot. Not by a long shot.
I use it mainly for storing user data, error data, login info, etc. I can't imagine how realtime could be useful for that.
I am willing to bet it is something very trivial like Raspberry PIs connected to dongles.

If you look at the map a lot of the locations are very concentrated; this is likely because there are shit tonne of "Chai Wallah" places in India :). However, looking at the outliers, I am not expecting a device that is creating something similar to a net nor a wifi extender.

It would be way cheaper than having some other sort of a receiver.
Personality disorders are mostly diagnoses for life, sure, but some people do manage to grow out of them often through stuff like CBT/DBT. Even when they don't grow out, properly identifying personality disorders is immensely important and the treatment gap makes this far more difficult than it should be.

Karam/Shubhendu,

Really kicked to see something from my neck of the woods with great potential out in the market. Congratulations on the launch.

I'm assuming it will take​ significant volume to make this profitable (should be easily doable).

I had noticed recently fibre now being strung from trees in Bangalore much like how ethernet cable used to be ten-years-ago and figured we're on to something big now.
This would fit so well into George Carlin's Euphemisms bit:

Can you talk a little bit about how you power the Dabbas and refresh the tokens if they are only valid for 24 days.

Do you guys function like "doodh wallahs" in that you visit the locations every morning to reset power and tokens? Would seem like a hassle but convenient from the point of view of the chai wallahs.
I tried with only the google cloud datastore SDK and it took the zipped(!) filesize down from 23 meg to 18 - not a substantial difference.

And AWS has me hooked on its cognito service so I'd never even be able to try Google Functions because as far as I know there is no Cognito equivalent in the Google ecosystem. Cognito is awesome.
I have that experience going to a store less than 30 minutes from my house.

In my local stores there are feet of cereal aisle that all seems largely overkill. When I go to a suburban grocery store there are yards of it. I'm always baffled.
Maybe to grow faster?
Agree that you can't let him out on the streets. However, protection needn't just be reactive. On the basis that prevention is better than cure is better than amputation, wouldn't it be great if we did a bunch more multi-disciplinary research into the why's and wherefore's and used that to inform everything from in-vitro genetic screening, child rearing, education, health policy, policing and judicial responses?

Personally, I believe there are too many interests at play that are quite happy not to have their methods questioned, and "preventing the next psychopath" has an element of the Y2K problem, in that, if successful, all you get is "Was that really necessary? Are you sure you didn't overstate the problem? Did we really need to spend all that money?"
What seems most important about WebAssembly is that it is essentially a universal language runtime. It's not that what it brings to the web is unimportant, just that it seems like we're also getting a way to do truly cross-platform language deployment as a bonus. Am I wrong about this?

Not the op, but your comment did not make it clear which company's investors you were name-calling.
Different langauges demand different features in the implementation of a garbage collector. A garbage collector that every language implementation could use would basically be a set of functions that languages could use to implement their garbage collectors, but at that point the library would be tiny and the per-langauge implementation of garbage control would be huge.

First time hearing about this product and watching the video. Beautiful video and well articulated, though was that guy doing yoga in jeans? ;)

I couldn't get my head around how it would work. How does selection work? Is it proximity to the thing you want to control? For me the video was a little too abstract. Maybe it would have just made sense if I was in the IoT space.
Maybe I'm reading it incorrectly (IANAL) but that article left me thinking the mistake was signing the original deal with Sony. Does fair use actually cover what the platform did at at the time?
>I've seen your stuff in r/DIY and it looks like your main interest (outside of your work as an RoR dev) is hardware. Do you code for fun or do anything on the software side as well?

No, software is just to mostly just to support myself. I know there's a push for being passionate, but sometimes the thing we love about our work is just that it lets us do the things we love. Also internet issues in China make coding even with a VPN not so fun. I'd like to be able to just do hardware projects if I could.

>The real lesson here is: if you're a borderline woman, do NOT have children. If you do, give them up for adoption. We as a society should be ready and willing to forcibly separate children from borderline parents.

Of course we should reserve the right to remove children from abusive situations, but depriving people of the right to have children? You can't just cast everyone with BPD as a raving lunatic incapable of real human connection, it's a caricature and furthermore it's wrong. They are still people just like everyone else and are capable of the same things we are. People with BPD are absolutely capable of being good parents. The fact that there is not better treatment for BPD I believe is due to social stigma surrounding it (do you know about the treatment gap?) and making blanket statements like "don't have children if you're borderline" does not reduce stigma.
Yikes, thanks for point that out, we'll fix it.

Presto, which is designed for analytics, does JIT to bytecode on every query and still works fine on sub-second queries. One potential difference with LLVM is that the JVM will profile and only generate machine code for hot code, so short queries might use JVM interpreted bytecode.

But you are absolutely correct that for long running analytic queries, the up front cost of generating optimized code pays off.

The canonical discussions of just this issue through Torah, Midrash and Talmud, as well as later Rabbinic writings span literally volumes. It is not possible to be "exact" about the halakhah around portrayals of G-d, which include images, analogies, textual writings of the divine name, uttering and pronouncing the divine name, and describing the nature of the divine. If you want to lay claim to being "exact" we'll need to see some Tractate references.
Hmm... I intend to make an info product that I believe could be used by most developers, however, my idea is to sell it for $10, thinking that no developer should say he can't afford it. Mostly because of that as I want as many to actually read and apply.

From what I read here, this product, which would have two parts and is largely done, I should sell it for $49 specifically with higher tiers.

Not sure what to think honestly. I am close to finishing it and I want to make money, but mostly want to share with other developers and open communication.

I like idea about slack channel and community.

But tipping sucks. That was one of the reasons Uber was better than Lyft in the first place.

Then some assholes sued and now Uber drivers are allowed to ask for tips. Nice job breaking it, hero.
No Tipping is one of the main reasons I liked Uber; no cash, no pressure, you just get out of the car and walk away with everyone happy. I would rather pay more for each fare and have Uber aggressively prohibit tipping. I suspect many people feel the same way and if Uber doesn't get it under control, it could be the biggest challenge they face.
Sorry meant to reply to this sooner. Yeah, we're just as deterministic. The question then is, does determinism invalidate choice? What is it about choice that necessarily makes it contradict determinism? Is it the idea that the choice is predictable under determinism? Is it that there was ultimately only one option available for you and thus only the illusion of choice? If that's the case then we don't have that kind of choice.

The way i see it is that choice/free will is just a useful concept at the level of description of people. The mistake is mixing the levels of description and expecting the resulting statements to be coherent. There's no point in a causal chain where a "choice" happens, yet at the level of description of people with behaviors, choice happens. If we don't expect some kind of metaphysical truth underlying the claim that we make choices, then there's no problem. If you want your choices to have some acausal sort of control, then you're out of luck.
RMS is fond of making up "cute" names for things. It lets people identify themselves as part of the tribe.

The dabbas are plugged into the wall for power, practically all tea shops tend to have a power line of some sort even if its not obvious at first glance. We provide a battery backup too. Our software handles refreshing of tokens, so no need to visit the store that often for maintainence.
Someone making a color scheme for a chart needs to be very rigorous indeed, because color is actually how the data is represented, in some cases.

The tutorial seems to be aimed at front-end developers that want to put together a color scheme for a website. In this case, color is more like decoration, so it doesn't need to be as rigorous, IMHO.
Rehabilitation and sequestration are ways to protect and help people after a crime has been committed and presumably after the victim has suffered.

Punishment for deterrence--if it actually deters--can do something else entirely, it can prevent the suffering of the innocent and prevent new criminality by increasing the suffering of the guilty.
Tipping is awkward and unpleasant. It is the number one reason I use uber.
