In addition, public transportation (train and metro in particular, it's less true for bus) will give you a predictable time of arrival. You know that by taking this train, you'll arrive at your destination by that time.

With you personal vehicle, you might be stuck in traffic, have to circle before finding a spot or find a spot much farther than you expected and have a longer walk to do.

> most city centres still provide free or low cost parking

Not sure about "most." Even in smaller cities free street parking is getting pretty rare. My town charges $1/hr for meters and it's clearly too cheap because it's still hard to find a spot most times.

Certainly in urban centers like downtown Chicago there is no such thing as free parking, even at hotels and office buildings.

A more relevant metric would be how often the car is used: there's a difference between having a family car you use for weekend trips and occasional trip to Costco, and having to drive your kids to school every morning.
It is only as convenient as it has been because the state forces businesses and apartments to provide the parking required to enable this for free out of their own pockets. Removing regulations requiring this can't be said to be curtailing your freedom.

As you said paying for parking is just a disadvantage of hauling around several tons of metal, which is not the same as being deprived of your ability to do something by someone who holds power over you.
Same here! I was looking for it one day wondering how much money an open-source browser was "scrapping by" with... to find... "Holy shit! Hundreds of millions of dollars!?" I can only dream...
This is a stupid article. You already have to pay to park when you go downtown.
This is fantastic news. If I understand things correctly, we can now host the Wire server on our own VM, and use the clients to connect to it, correct? We'll have full control over the end-to-end encrypted network?
Then nobody will go through the expense of building any parking for their development, after which everyone suffers. New owners will have to build parking simply to exist in the space, and a great gap forms between affordability for owners who were there before vs new owners coming in - less traffic means all the businesses suffer.

"Ohh. Ok. I didn't realize we were doing trick questions. What's the safest way to go skiing? Don't ski!"

Basically the argument here is to stop traffic jams from happening just make it so annoying that people won't drive. Well here in Texas you literally can't get anywhere without driving. Buses don't really run, there isn't public transportation to utilize, and you're going to tell me on a 100F day to ride a bike 15 miles?

In my city it's common for large retailers to provide parking lots at a cost. If you buy something, the cashier gives you a stamp that nulls your parking charge. Anyone can park, but free for customers. There's ways to game it, but it seems a workable solution.

I had an initial negative experience on Reddit a few years ago and rapidly abandoned it. I recently returned.

Yeah, I wrote those bindings, though they're incomplete, and libui's memory management is so broken that I lost interest in finishing them.

It's a fair point, however. :) Much of my interest in libui was (a) to provide platform support for the browser engine; (b) to provide a solution for simple projects that don't want large dependencies. I've always believed the native UI frameworks from the '90s to be poor fits for modern graphics hardware. But sometimes your workload is so simple you don't care about whether your UI is as fast as possible, and minimizing dependencies is a more important criterion. That's where simple native UI layers can be a good fit.

Eric Cline, the author of the piece, wrote the book "1177 B.C.: The Year Civilization Collapsed", a book on the bronze age collapse I found very interesting. In the 1980's, the BBC produced a series called "In Search of Troy", written and presented by Michael Wood, the historian. Cline brings this up to date with Manfred Korfmann's findings from the 1990's, expanding the size of Troy with the "lower city" and adding much to our knowledge. I think the BBC series can be found on YouTube and is worth watching still, as it covers a lot of the same ground. I wish Schliemann had been more careful.
The rumors going around the Julia IRC channel is that they are announcing 1.0 at JuliaCon this summer.
Traffic compounds the problems of public transit, but public transit is really bad even on its own. It's slow on its own, total cost is high, it's inflexible for many purposes, it doesn't respond to changes in the city, it's run monolithically, it's not aligned with its customers (customers are a liability), it's designed to encourage points of failure. It has such a multitude of problems, making cars less attractive won't go far to making public transit more attractive.
Not arguing with your assessment of Uber's requirements; but in general, why do you view InnoDB as not much more than a K/V store? And why do you equate clustered indexes with K/V stores?

InnoDB is a complex piece of software, supporting transactions, row-level locking, MVCC, schemas, secondary indexes, crash recovery, hot copy/backup, complex caching and buffering, many tunables, and extensive metrics visibility. Just because it's more appropriate for Uber's rather unusual EAV-like use-case, this doesn't mean InnoDB is a glorified K/V store.

Re: clustered indexes, it's a storage engine architecture choice with well-known trade-offs, both positive and negative. SQL Server also uses clustered indexes and is widely respected among database experts.

Regarding the topic overall, there are use-cases where Postgres is the best choice, and there are use-cases where it isn't. That doesn't inherently mean that other databases are uniformly worse. People like to trash MySQL, sometimes for completely valid reasons, but other times for FUD. But fwiw, several of the major features in Postgres 10 have already been supported in MySQL/InnoDB for a long time, in some cases for over a decade. Of course, that goes both ways; there are awesome major features that Postgres has had for a decade that MySQL still lacks.

I don't even own a car in Seattle. It's clearly not a necessity as I, my fiancé, and several of our friends are all careless and do just fine.

If anything its drivers that do stupid stuff like block bus lanes, don't know how to merge, etc... that are a bigger problem to public transit.

I think the real takeaway is that a philosophical zombie cannot exist, because all of the intelligent, aware, normal things that a philosophical zombie is supposed to be able to do require some sort of consciousness to integrate the mechanical signals. That's all consciousness is -- data compression, signal processing. You wouldn't work if you weren't conscious.

In the Bay Area it's a joke either to drive or rely on public transportation. Choose the former and suffer in a slow-moving traffic jam in all directions. Choose the latter and be at the mercy of tepid schedules and relatively frequent delays. I live 25 miles by road from my office. Whether I drive to work or take Caltrain/BART my commute (including biking or driving to the train station) is a minimum of 70 minutes one-way.

Traffic and transportation are hard problems, but this area seems to always choose terrible solutions for either of them.
In my experience, this is just mathematical code in general.

Has anyone ever considered that women regardless of industry get paid less because they don't negotiate for more? As a female from the tech and other industries including talent acquisition rarely do I come across another female who asks for more or alternative compensation in either the hiring, review, or promotion stage of their career. As a benefits manager I've known the top limit companies will pay and sat quietly as female executives accepted offers that were 20-30k away from what the company was willing to give. Bottom line if you don't ask for more you won't get it. Men ask, women rarely do.
You would think that traffic jams are a deterrent themselves, a fair one.
Jefferson also conceived of the lower classes as literal waste, that needed to be bred and put to productive use, just like the animals and slaves he owned. He wanted to import Germans to improve the breeding of the poor whites, because he, along with the other elites, considered them as inferior creatures.

Again, the founders idea of America was based on importing forced labor - the majority of early Americans weren't people 'fleeing religious persecution', they were slaves, indentured servants, convicts, and the rest of England's 'trash' that could either be forced or deceived into getting on a boat.

I think that if we were to follow that reasoning to the point of eliminating public transit, it would have to be eliminating all public transport subsidies: if all roads were toll roads and the tolls needed to cover the full cost of building and maintaining the roads, and there was no public parking, i think private mass transit would probably be successful.

(not that i think going that far would be a good idea. But it's important to realize just how much public money is spent maintaining infrastructure for private vehicles. eliminating free parking would be a very small portion of the subsidy.)

Bernard L. Madoff

From Wikipeda

"In his plea allocution, Madoff stated he began his Ponzi scheme in 1991. He admitted he had never made any legitimate investments with his clients' money during this time. Instead, he said, he simply deposited the money into his personal business account at Chase Manhattan Bank. When his customers asked for withdrawals, he paid them out of the Chase account — a classic "robbing Peter to pay Paul" scenario. Chase and its successor, JPMorgan Chase, may have earned as much as $483 million from his bank account.[107][108] He was committed to satisfying his clients' expectations of high returns, despite an economic recession. He admitted to false trading activities masked by foreign transfers and false SEC filings. He stated that he always intended to resume legitimate trading activity, but it proved "difficult, and ultimately impossible" to reconcile his client accounts. In the end, Madoff said, he realized that his scam would eventually be exposed.[75][109]

let me emphasize from above:

"He stated that he always intended to resume legitimate trading activity, but it proved "difficult, and ultimately impossible" to reconcile his client accounts"
Your city doesn't have bus lanes or a dedicated transit street? Seattle has both.

It doesn't really address the issue, though it does make service for the rush hour suburb / city commuters better. (which is really all the current public transit infrastructure in the Seattle and surrounding areas is optimized for).

Nor does it address the issue of it being expensive to extend the service in a way that meaningfully empowers, E.G. those working a late shift somewhere, to get home at 2AM.
Actually, given the subject, that's an entirely acceptable requirement.

If all the components are only meant to function inside a blink based engine, then making versions that might function without chrome specific extensions just for the demo site is silly and a waste of resources.

It's simple enough to install chrome just to view this if you didn't have it installed already, and if you are interested in deploying an electron app, you probably already do.

Requiring a chrome based browser to view is the equivalent of requiring your browser support java applets when viewing a site showing off a toolkit for java applets (assuming it's a decade in the past). The simplest way to show the actual usage it to actually use them, and the best way to make that function correctly is to deploy examples that actually use the engine.
> Traveling in a personal vehicle affords drastically more freedom of movement (you are literally in control of your movement) than any form of public transport and while it's not necessarily a need that should be subsidized by the state it is nonetheless a curtailment on freedom when the state deliberately makes it less convenient than it had been.

The state should make it less convenient. In the past they have been massively subsidizing it with free roads and military interventions abroad to safeguard the oil supply. Furthermore cars and gasoline should be taxed much more heavily to compensate for the negative externalities of cars: noise and air pollution and countless traffic victims (35.000 motor vehicle deaths in 2015 in the US alone [1]).

Your freedom to get somewhere in a car is not absolute (e.g. you have to follow roads), it should be balanced against other freedoms. Ponder this: cars have impinged on my freedom to go certain places (e.g. highways or certain neighborhoods that no longer have sidewalks) on foot.

Where did we mention making programming easier for non-programmers? I think libraries should strive to be as usable as possible to _all_ programmers, which in this case means reducing or eliminating very common operations (such as binding callback functions). When we're talking about working on a large codebase, useless boilerplate is a legimate cost both in productivity and maintenance.

And by this logic, we shouldn't use JSX either.

While true, it's hardly a practical barrier. Anyone who isn't disabled can easily pass a driving test and get a license. It's not like you have to justify a need to drive, and it will only be taken away if you demonstrate severe incompetence or recklessness.

There's no way to avoid giving away clues to "secret sauce" when releasing a driver, and keeping the source code closed doesn't change that. I don't see how the degree of accessibility is relevant.

The fact is that clues to IP can't be removed when compiling the source to binary form, because implementation details can't be hidden. So the status quo is that they are already public. Granted, it takes more skill and patience to analyze the clues in this form, but any competent hacker can do it. And the absence of names and comments in the binary makes the job harder, but doesn't actually remove the significant clues.

And while it's true that these drivers might be using licensed code, which restricts publication of its source code, this seems like a poor excuse for keeping all the code proprietary. The existence of licensed code doesn't block releasing the rest of the code. And I'm willing to bet there is an army of volunteers out there that is more than happy to write a clean room replacement for the licensed parts, if the vendor can't do it, given the opportunity.
