Can't take a bus?

I wasn't taking about the driving where you are the only passenger anyway....

>What I'm saying is the two aren't without risk, but one is a clearly more sensible option than the other (you brought up the example of cars).

And. You say smoking has some great downsides. Have you spent some time in a traffic jam or red signal, where you are surrounded by exhaust from other vehicles. In some countries you might have a truck or bus with your exhaust directly in your face or open window....

So, one is not "clearly more sensible option", But one sure is more socially acceptable. Surprise surprise!

I doubt that would have helped here, since the bank itself did the matching and picked the wrong account.

EU (IBAN to be exact) bank accounts do have a check digit, so typos tend to be caught and result in a transfer being blocked. More relevantly Dutch banks are going to add name checking in 2017 as an extra protection as well. The exact introduction date will vary per bank.

I'm pretty tech literate, and even so getting an VPN is a huge pain.

First, there is the trade off of speed, location, protocol. Will a US based VPN be private enough? Do they really not log? Who do I trust?

Next there is actual usage: my Phillips hue lights don't sync with my alarm if the VPN is turned on. Torrents don't work if the VPN isn't on the slowest protocol. A few more in that vein.

This means that even after I've found and paid for a VPN I think I can trust, I have to be constantly switching it on and off, and have to be vigilant about what browsing I do when.
Well substitute a more trusted source for you than NYT and we still have a problem to solve. I don't read NYT much, but Bernie was left of Hillary, FWIW- so I would have expected them to cover him more than her if they leaned heavily left. But whatevs; neither here nor there.

What always gets me about this class of articles is that they are a classic case of bikeshedding. Is anyone really having that much trouble with ls?

Yes, things like ls could be better - but is switching between "ls --plus -a --pile --of --options" and "ls | one | damn | filter | after | another" a particularly core concern?

I tend to agree with this bit... "Rather than re-evaluating the Unix command line with an eye towards improving its usability under the greatly relaxed technological constraints of modern hardware, we’ve written terminal emulators that faithfully reproduce the constraints of the mid-1970s",

... but feel that the author decided that it was a lot more fun and easy to complain about ls instead of properly exploring this idea.

>> EDIT: ILP at an advanced level starts making connections with PGMs (probabilistic graphical models) and hence machine learning, but its a long way to go for me (in terms of learning) before I start to make sense of all these puzzle pieces.

ILP is machine learning, it's a family of algorithms that learn logic programs usually from structured data. So for instance, table rows go in one end and Prolog clauses come out the other end.

Connections with PGMs... hmm, not sure what you mean. There are probabilistic ILP algorithms, like Stochastic Relational Learning [1] and Probabilistic ILP [2], but I think you're probably referring to probablistic logic programming a family of probabilistic programming languages either based on Prolog, like PRISM [3], or having logic programming characteristics.

PRISM in particular is basically Prolog with probabilities and probabilistic algorithms like Expectation-Maximisation. Prolog's depth-first search tree plus probabilities to guide branching does sound an awful lot like a PGM so I'm guessing that's what you mean.

Source: personal interst in ILP and I'm starting a PhD on the subject in September :)

Well, because, in order to satisfy the most finicky of its users (myself included), VS Code offers no less than 6 styles for its cursor ('block', 'block-outline', 'line', 'line-thin', 'underline' and 'underline-thin') and 5 animations ('blink', 'smooth', 'phase', 'expand' and 'solid'). Also, in a future release the themes will be allowed to change the color of the cursor to any of the 16,581,375 colors in the RGB spectrum.

Does that answer your question? :)

GPUs in the cloud right now are so pricy, in part I think because NVIDIA is making people put in K40s and K80 - the Quadro and Telsa class cards that are super expensive.

We started to put on premise machines that have GPUs in them to reduce our costs. We can get a desktop class Core i7 machine with a GeForce 1060 6GB for around $800 all in, where as on Amazon you have to have a G2 2.xlarge on demand it is $400/month, or $3478 one year term (that is for 1/4 of a G2 8.xlarge achine, thus you get one of its 4 Quadro K5000 4GB cards to yourself.) I could put 2 1060s in that machine for another $200 or so. This just beats AWS pricing in <4 months of use.

My expectation is that these 1060s will be good for two years, maybe even three.

Because our GPU tasks are low bandwidth and non-critical we can run them on our existing office internet. Our rent also includes power. So there are not too many additional costs over the bare machine costs.
Great idea but you may want to rethink the name. PowWowNow is a well know (at least in the U.K.) conference call provider. May prove a big issue for you since you're in a similar field. Looking forward to the weekly updates.
I have become a wizard at MSBuild Tasks because of this very circumstance. We're using TFS 2013 (with those XAML-based build templates that are a nightmare to extend) and I end up writing .proj files for everything that I need.
Think ALB already supported only SNI. Cloudfront has an offering that supports the older standard, but that's really expensive because of the need for all the static IPs.

Think the load balancers never had the possibility of static IPs, so SNI from the start.

But yeah, like another comment said, with the built in ACM managing certs is a non issue. It's like having an AWS specific Lets Encrypt for any service you want.

I lived in a college town in the states. The popular bars were generally around campus or in the downtown area - both places known for having too little and/or inconvenient parking. Folks drove nonetheless, however. Only a portion of patrons lived or worked in the area, the rest had to travel. This is really more key, I think, than the lack of parking spaces. A good number of folks have to travel outside of walking range to go to any such establishment.
Depending on your financial background $1 could already be quite a bit. I'd prefer to charge just "not nothing" which should be below 50c for me. Preferably below the costs of a text (costs ~9c here).

The bigger problem however is what ever the procedure for signig up is. Even if it's just paypal and a webform for the mail.

I think there are definitely a small minority with the 'explorer gene', who are keen to be on the frontier. But most of us (if we're really honest with ourselves) would find it too hard to live on Mars in the next 50 years (say). Being so far away from home, simple things like the lack of internet, your surroundings being mile after mile of this : https://go.nasa.gov/2p4TKrK.

I think realistically most of the people who first colonise mars will be doing it for financial reasons, because better options are not available to them on Earth.
While it's certainly a solved problem, what I found in the US was that people put bars and restaurants near roads.

Some times a bar or restaurant could be a few km down some otherwise empty road, with a parking lot in front.

That's a large part of the problem.
> I used NYC's lovely 311 app to file a complaint against just such a driver for shouting at me after he drove at me head-on in a 2-way bike lane. I expect he'll face a significant fine.

I'd wager against that outcome from a due process and practicality standpoint. If dropping a dime on someone using their ID number would result in a significant fine absent other evidence, there would be chaos.
Unless Unix dies a swift death for some reason or another, going forward there will be many more people who have to learn this than there are that have learned it already. Surely, once you're using those things on a daily basis it doesn't matter how inconvenient, illogical, or badly designed things are, you just know how to do them right. Is that a good reason to scoff at anyone who points out that things are badly-designed? Backwards-compatibility seems a far better argument in favor of keeping things like they are than »it doesn't bother me much in practice«.

Willingness and ability are different things. Samsung never tried to push Tizen on mobile phones.

Samsung put itself in a position where the company simply cannot walk away from Google, at least in the mobile space (Tizen is actually pretty "mainstream" in smart TVs and wearables). Market shares are pretty much set at this point, and no alternative mobile OS based on linux has a chance to become mainstream, no matter the size of the company backing it. That doesn't stop a small company like Jolla from delivering viable products though, since they don't need to keep Google happy.
this is interesting, but when you see that this companies charge 100$ for a 2gb data plan it makes you backup
This may have to do with the troubled history of alcohol in the US. You've had the temperance movement which lead to Prohibition, which was too extreme. After its repeal, the temperance movement faded somewhat, until automobiles became more common and you have MADD pressuring states to raise the drinking age to 21, which is now effective in all the states. That has inadvertently contributed to an extremely unhealthy culture of binge drinking on college campuses all across the US. That early experience with binge drinking may partially explain the lack of healthy drinking culture in the US.

However, anecdotally "I'm driving" is now pretty much the best reason to give and not to be pressured into drinking. But that's just been my personal experience.
Turns out, for U.S. institutions, and a little information on the subject, it's pretty easy to get educational verification on candidate's claims. Many companies with well run hiring operations just use this service as a matter of course.

Looks great. And such beautiful URL structure. Will be my goto example to illustrate how to represent resources in the web.
Yep, last year I compared some packages of interest (fontconfig, freetype, cairo and few others I can't remember now) and the only significant differences between Debian and Ubuntu packages were

1. Ubuntu packages were slightly more up-to-date (I compared packages in Debian 8 to Ubuntu 15.10 or 16.04, not sure which one). This is important for freetype because it keeps improving in every release.

2. Fontconfig is heavily configured in Ubuntu package. Not patched, just runtime configuration.

So there were no special patches on the Ubuntu side compared to Debian or the upstream sources. I must note that both Ubuntu and Debian's freetype package (which are almost identical BTW) enable advanced hinting options (which must be configured in compile time). Some other popular distributions don't enable those options because of lawsuit fears and this results in a much crappier font rendering that you can't fix with runtime configuration.

As I said this comparison may be slightly out of date now and I plan to repeat it after stretch is released. I didn't keep tabs on their state on recent Ubuntu releases but on the Debian side fontconfig and freetype was barely maintained in stretch cycle, so I guess Debian will still have slightly poorer font rendering compared to Ubuntu. You can still get a similar rendering by copying over /etc/fontconfig of a comparable Ubuntu release, though.
I used the ami with a p2.large for a deep learning project at university. In my opinion it was quite pricey and reading from disk storage was disappointingly slow (we had a 60gb dataset). What i found really great was using the same machine first as a t2.micro instance for setup and testing s3 connection, a m4.large for some preprocessing and finally the p2 for deep learning, all on the same AMI and SSD.

None of that is like dealing with 0/1 arrays. Almost everything you encounter in real life starts with 1, not 0. If anything it's the 0 based array that should be consider "wrong" and the cause of so many errors. But we use 0 based arrays because of the C/assembly legacy where the 0 means the location of the array with a 0 offset.
It's a lot easier to pull a self-driving car out of service for cleaning than a six-carriage train. It's not unreasonable to expect that some combination of machine vision, Mechanical Turk and hands-on inspection will be able to detect a car with a soiled interior before it gets dispatched to another customer.

I imagine there will be plenty of teething problems and horror stories, but I don't think it's an insoluble problem.
The real question is why work for so little money? The federal minimum wage is $7.25, tipped employees can make less per hour but only if the tips exceed the minimum wage for that time, but that isn't the real wage floor consider Walmart[0] has a minimum wage of $10.00 nationally and the average time between hire and promotion(with raise) is 3 months with an average fulltime compensation of $13.38 an hour. Construction labor, house cleaning, call centers and even dishwashing in non chain restaurants tends to pay similarly, I really don't know why anyone would make the minimum wage for any extended period of time, nor how employers offering it manage to find anyone given the competition.

I used to teach Prolog in the GOFAI days of early 80's. It certainly was fun and probably the quickest way how to start solving interesting search based problems without having to write pages and pages of code. It was very good for motivation. Also for encouraging "top-down" design.

What's the problem with all those options? IMHO ls is not bloated at all. It simply follows the Unix philosophy: Do just one thing, and do it "right" which means: do it as well as possible. ls actually does that. I never had any desire for another ls because ls already gives me almost all possible functionality. I am glad that I have all those options so that I don't have to write my own tool to get a special function if I really need that.

If you don't need all the options, ignore them. If ls is too complicated for you then do just as the author recommends: "write a simpler alternative to ls", and name it lf ("list files") or the like.

Sadly, it will fail. I spoke to the founder about the project and in my opinion he's underestimated the challenge. He said something to me like "all we need to do is solve the battery life issue". That's like saying, to get to space all we need to do is build the space shuttle. As far as efficiency is concerned, android is the only show in town. Debian won't cut it. What he does works for stuff you plug in, not for battery operated gadgets.
