Sure, not problem. I'll stop pointing out that philosophy is a contentless debating society when the philosophers realize it, and when they stop treating it as though it constitutes an objective science (a point argued by others in this thread).

If they find a good developer who helps them build a product, they are not solo anymore. If they keep pretending they are, then they are just assholes taking advantage of people.
But ultrafinitism isn't actually interesting as a mathematical theory. As the previous poster said, its appeal lies in its "realness". Intuitionistic and linear logic are substantially more interesting.
That's not the impression I got. It sounded to me like there had been a long, confidential conversation, perhaps spanning different media, and he just wanted an authoritative email laying out the full issue, which he could then act on, without needing to try to accurately recall all past conversation and determine which parts should be confidential or not.

I'm not saying it was the ideal response, just that if we give the benefit of the doubt it doesn't appear to be a malicious one.

I don't think anyone disagrees that the videos are good to have, but it's not the issue of whether or not Berkley should have been distributing the videos, it's that Berkley was not fulfilling its obligations. As outlined in the Department of Justice report [1], Berkley was making these videos after the guidelines were put in place and after Berkley adopted its own guidelines and had a required signoff for all such projects going forward. They also had and have a resource on campus that assists with compliance as required and conceived by Berkley itself.

The issue isn't 20000 formerly made videos aren't compliant, it's that Berkley was making the videos out of compliance while claiming to be compliant.

THe DoJ's assessment is that Berkley has the resources to correct their error without "undue ... [burden]", so their options were take the videos down or engage in a program to meet compliance witht he videos, less they be penalized.

Berkley opted to just take the videos down. I get this from a financial standpoint, even though it'd be nice if they aimed for compliance.

But don't mistake them taking it down as an order so much; they weren't making the videos accessible as they had pledged to, they claimed they were, and they were continuing not to comply. The complaintants called them on it, and it's unfortunate, but they should have been complying from the beginning before they had a video queue of 20000.

I hope from here on out they will make compliant videos and use their on-campus resources; Berkley's response certainly seems to suggest interest in compliance, so I hope that this can just be a tragedy that we can move past.

Why do you need to rush through the game?
I only play max 1 hour per day and having a blast.
First of all, a Slack clone with Firebase/Angular/Phonegap is not simple in terms of the engineering effort. If he found someone to implement a working system like that for peanuts, then he did not bootstap his startup alone, he did it by taking advantage of the other guy, and the fact that he does not acknowledge the other guy did 90% percent of it and describes it as a 'solo' effort just means that he is an asshole.
Disagree completely.

I have two kids (one is only 2 months old) and also have a long commute, demanding job, etc. I also don't have a lot of time to play games. But the Switch just makes it so easy to play. It's the first console I can play in bed at night without bothering my wife and newborn.

Thus, with its portability, it makes it extremely easy to just play anytime I have time.

Also, why rush? 1 to 2 hours a day is more than enough. This game is a slow burn and I'm loving every moment of it!

That's not what's going on here (100-200 unique microservices). Aside from the fact that that's insane, they specifically state they want to "pack" multiple containers of the same service on one machine:

"You cannot run two containers of the same service on a single host because they will collide and attempt to listen on the same port. (no bin packing)"

So, what's the sense in doing that instead of one bigger container?
If you want to play portably, Switch is the only way to do it. Apparently, it plays well on Wii U, but at a lower resolution (720p vs Switch's 900p docked).

if you ever care, the wizard book[1] can get you started with a toy implementation of prolog. it's just searching through a big state space, really not much to it. The key idea is unification. PAIP builds up to it in a nice way, and the scheme language spec has (had?) a nice unifier as an example[2].

it's also pretty reasonable to just say to hell with prolog, and go do other fun things with your life. But if you do care at some point, it's not magical. it's just a fancy search.

I'm in a similar spot right now. There is nothing as satisfying to me as playing StarCraft and honing my skills. When I worked as a software developer I didn't feel like I was improving my skills past a few months at each company. It was more like doing the same boring work over and over again.

Even when I do the same builds in StarCraft over and over again there's always an element of the other player trying to mess you up. It adds an unpredictability element. You can ALWAYS do better by playing faster and more accurately. There is always more skills to work on.

Work pales in comparison. It's just not exciting.

The output is very flexible - you can define entry types as collections of "widgets", which would include stuff like a title, a cover image, a markdown body, etc. It's designed so you can use it as a CMS for almost any static site generator by defining how your data looks in the config - see https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/blob/master/example/c... for an example config (this is a configuration for the in-memory, non-persistent backend which we use for testing and demonstration).
We do have a few quite interesting mountaineous roads in Norway, too - matter of fact, a couple of minutes ago I heard on the radio that only two of the -hm, six? seven? I only ever use two of them- mountain crossings connecting eastern Norway to the rest of us were open due to lots of snow and poor weather in latter days. Those two are now convoy only.

Have a look at this, for instance:(0) Not as elegant as the Japanese operation, but the photo probably predates GPS, to the Norwegian snow plow crews credit. I'd feel very small traversing down that road. Doubly so if I suddenly met a heavy truck, a bus or anything larger than a bicycle, really...

Cynically, I'd like to counter that the procedure was not experimental but well-proven. As the quacks informed us, they've successfully performed thousands such interventions.

To make my above statement true, you need only consider what defines "success" from the point of view of the quack clinics. In each case, the treatment achieved its primary goal, which was to part desperate people from their money. The treatment's effect on their vision was a side effect.

For the same reason, I wouldn't dignify the procedure with the "experimental" label. When you say an approach is experimental you're implying that it's being performed under carefully controlled and monitored conditions to improve the state of medical knowledge. It sounds to me like this isn't at all what those treatments are about.
I have read multiple sources over the years that her remains were found at a place that was searched numerous times. The strange thing is that a lot of these missing people cases mention the same thing - body found in a heavily searched area to the amazement of the search party. However, none of this stuff gets any press because it all sounds hokey pokey. The guy who investigates these things, David Paulides, is an ex-cop/detective. He publicly states that he has no clue how these people are disappearing and never throws out opinions in fear of ridicule and dismissal. I encourage to listen to some of his interviews on this. It's all truly fascinating.

That's what they want you to think, but a lot of it comes in the form of ripping you off for bandwidth to actually get data out of EC2.

> All ideas are paradoxes ...

To a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

The idea that there are an infinity of primes is not at all paradoxical, it's an uncontroversial factual assertion. Most of mathematics shows the same property.

> The act of mapping reality to words necessarily creates lies.

Not the words out of which scientific theories are constructed. Evolution. Biology. Physics. These are falsifiable (they must be to qualify as scientific theories), but they are not lies -- a word that means false claims made by a speaker who knows his claims are false. You're misusing the word "lies" to refer to something else.

> Imagining you have some ideas which aren't paradoxes is self delusion.

See above. Your claim that all ideas are lies is the essence of the postmodern position. A postmodernist first denies the existence of shared, objective truths, then tries to start a dialogue requiring what's just been denied.

> I would say a hallmark of sanity is the ability to work within paradoxes.

That's certainly true, but it doesn't follow that all is paradox, or that all statements are lies.

Hi, thanks for your interest!

Our fund managers work at the Open Philanthropy project, where they work full-time, finding the very best donation opportunities. They look for charities working in their key focus areas, which have a good track record and a robust evidence base to support their chosen intervention. If the program you'd like to recommend is within one of their key focus areas, run some quick calculations to check if the charity you'd like to recommend is within the same range of cost-effectiveness as the previous grantees. If so - great! we'd love to hear about it, and I'd recommend you get in touch with the program officer in charge of the program area your non-profit targets.
We recommend running this quick test because while many non-profit programs have a plausible story for impact, very few non-profits surpass our stringent bar for effectiveness.

GiveWell is especially excited to see non-profits working on these intervention areas http://blog.givewell.org/2015/10/15/charities-wed-like-to-se...

Anecdotal but I notice in my circles only less financially well off people endulge in quackery.

This will sound crazy, but I recently deployed a content management workflow for a rails app that mounts a WebDAV drive inside of a staging rails application that's running http://sitepress.cc/ (think Middleman in Rails, without all the dependencies)

If the marketing team wants to edit something, they mount the content drive, make changes using their text editor of choice, and are able to preview when they hit Save.

After they make a bunch of changes and add whatever media an engineer copies the changes off of the drive into a commit and deploys to production.

So far it's been working pretty well. The marketing and CS team are all able to edit markdown copy and run it easier through their content editing processes since it's just files. They don't need to learn or care about git. Designers can throw images in the volume without thinking too much about it.

Engineering is happy because they control their git history and commits. When it's time to optimize PNGs, compress assets, etc. the engineer can deal with and deploy to product with confidence.

We also run rspecs against every single page of content to enforce SEO, branding, etc.

Happy to answer questions or write something more detailed about it if others are interested.
You should read some philosophy of science. Start with Karl Popper. He's the person whose work you're referencing when you talk about falsifiability, and I think you'll relate to his writing, but he'll also challenge you to think a little more deeply about what science is - and indeed, what truth is.

Your mindset is too stuck in the victim mentality. Yes, people are going to better than you, BUT there are also people who are LESS qualified than you! I will tell you a secret most people wont tell you. People with less qualifications than you get paid more than you.

So drop the `Technical qualification` bull####. If you need qualifications, like other people have recommended open up a text book and start reading. Start building web-sites. Start development with Postgresql. Go out and market yourself and your products. See WHAT people want to buy. See what people are willing to pay for products. Go and take night classes in business management/business skills.

You're a discount office guy because you let them treat you like a discount office guy.

Pilots should be aware of wake turbulence and wingtip vortices in particular, and should be aware that being at a lower altitude than the generating aircraft is the most dangerous position (the vortex pattern is denser than the surrounding air and therefore descends).

Also, an invisible vortex is no less turbulent for its invisibility.
There are a couple of issues.

The first is that the means testing ensures that a small minority of the population receives welfare. If you dissolve the entire apparatus, and distribute the proceeds to all working adults then, in the US, it only comes out to something like $5-6k per year per person. Certainly below the 'living wage' $15/hr = $30k/yr + 'cost of living' adjustments that some are calling for (although this would require almost triple current tax revenues).

The second is that each and every welfare program is the end result of a hard fought political battle, and not a single program will go quietly into the good night. The optics of people suffering due to a particular lost welfare program will receive orders of magnitude more attention than the provision of basic income, no matter how generous. Basic income will become status quo, but sharp recriminations will go on, until at last each and every program will be reestablished. This is more likely the closer the level of basic income is to the $5k "cost saver."
