This reminds me when Steam created payable mods in it's ecosystem and received a huge backslash from the community. The thought is always that companies are greedy into milking more revenue from their customers.

However I feel this push back from the community (which you can also see here on this thread) ignores the fact of hundreds of hours a team of developers put into making the mod. Yes they do it for fun and not about money but I bet you they would rather make a living off of it.

I've once thought they could make a living with donations but the reality is that almost no one cares about donations. I believe one of the most popular addons of World of Warcraft (back in the Pandaria expansion), oQueue, only made 5 dollars in a month with donations. So the mod community in WoW had to rely on the ad revenue from the distribution platform (Curse).

I believe that introducing this type of system is beneficial to the longevity of a game. It supports the mod community to make a living creating what people are willing to play.

On one hand, infrastructure costs for idle capacity would/could become cost prohibitive. On the other hand, the provider should be held aaccountable for their failing to provide reasonable uptime/service.

It's not that simple. The police in the US are trained to de-escalate situations too. That doesn't stop police violence from occurring either in the US or elsewhere (there is no shortage of horrific stories of police abuse from western/central Europe as well, for example).

Under the hood, Minetest is way cooler than it looks: It actually implements a generalized 3D cellular automaton framework in which each cube in the world is driven by a small Lua program – which makes it much easier to mod than Minecraft. Many people like the Minecraft-style mod, but there exists, for example, an implementation of Wireworld: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireworld

Disclosure: I was an early Minetest contributor when you still had to provide C++ patches to add new features (2011) and drew some textures.
I am not a medical professional and nothing I say should be construed as medical advice. That being said, you might want to compare what you're experiencing against checklists for occupational burnout [1] or some form of anxiety disorder.

Some suggestions:

- Re-evaluate your perspective. "Work to live; don't live to work" may sound corny but it's true. You need to reflect on what's important in life for you and, for most people, that seldom involves work.

- Meditation and other stress reduction techniques. They can be quite useful in clearing your head, so to speak, though they don't work for everybody.

- Seeking therapy and/or medication. Stress and anxiety related disorders are sufficiently common now, unfortunately, that there's much less stigma about seeing a therapist than there used to be.

[1] One of the known potential symptoms being "I'm not getting enough done; I must try to work harder", causing the subject to get even less done
OK, let's try this again. I'm not saying that you should obey the police because they're authority figures, even if they're wrong. I'm saying that you should obey the police because they're going to physically hurt you (at least) if you don't.

That is, when the authority figures are morally in the wrong, you can make a case that the moral thing to do is to disobey them. But just in terms of the actual way things work in this less than perfect world, you'd better think seriously about the price you're going to pay for doing so. You can say "they shouldn't use force". Fine. But in the real world, they're going to use force.

So, no, I'm not contradicting myself. I'm speaking in two different senses. There's the ideal world, and there's the practical way things actually work. In the real world, if you disobey an order from the cops, it's going to hurt you, no matter how morally right you are.
This is potentially interesting but as you note, it sounds very similar to what is out there.

I think the high order bit is if you are going to provide free hosting or not. ($0)

If you will charge, then how much will you charge ($5, $10, $15, or $20).

Then you can compare features in your price point but, as you point out, there is just so much out there. If I wanted to do what you are saying, I would just get on wordpress.com and pick a theme and post. Or else blogger.com, and update the CSS to something post 1990s.

Fair point, but,

> if you want your webserver to do something complex, you'd go for Apache

I would tend to disagree. Assuming "complex" = "business logic", Apache hardly seems the right choice. PHP/Python/Node/GoLang or Lua right inside nginx would be more appropriate in most cases, imo.
Do you have actual numbers handy? The point is that you only have about 10 mins to work on a block. The longer it takes to compute collisions the less benefit you get from them. That is unless you precompute the collisions using irrelevant transaction data. The collisions must be recomputed everytime one of the transactions used is accepted on the blockchain.

Well, I may have made the mistake of using the word capital to refer to shares of companies. I admit the term is more generic and even cash can be seen as capital.

Still, this thread started about the idea of giving shares to a category of person. So my point remains : ownership is a dynamic concept. Even if you give those shares to people you think should own them, what makes you think they will keep them and not sell them?
> "The simplest hack is to use a configuration management tool"

> "You can also use a credential management suite for a more robust solution"

You have to start somewhere, this is why automated system with credentials isn't a simple task to solve.

Imagine this, you use consul to store your secrets, as you wrote up a script for Ansible to look things up, this include secrets. Great, but you need to authorize. So you need to keep the token somewhere. It's okay if you have a person typing in, but if you deploy through Jenkins on a regular basis automatically, you need to add that token as a password to Jenkins's data store.

But you provision and configure your Jenkins using your Ansible playbook, and your playbook needs to get to Consul to get to the secret so you can compare the key on Jenkins. Now this is getting tricker.

Okay, say you are on EC2, you can use instance profile to grant instance access to S3 / DynamoDB where you put your ultimate secrets. But if you are paranoid or for some reason you decided to do client-side encryption and keeping the master key to yourself (you generate them and you keep them, never given out to AWS), then you are back to square one. Where the heck do you keep your master key safe? KMS? No? In your own Consul? Okay where should we keep the token? Ugh.

What if you don't use AWS? Google Cloud?

You have to trust at least one place. If your repo can be trusted, let it be. There are three major factors in combating a system that has to put trust in password/cert/key:

* keep rotate the credentials

* everyone should pull from the same credentials management infrastructure

* least privilege

But #2 takes a while to complete, mainly because now you need to develop / rewrite your script on Jenkins to not use Jenkins's password datastore, and the password masking plugin. You have to develop your own masking plugin.

The most trusted place is where you will need to add extreme security measure. Assuming the encryption can't be broken in reasonable amount of time, the only way to keep a secret unrecoverable is if the secret holder is dead ("only one can live if two people know a secret).
You can pick the kid up and move him. Choosing a kid in this senario is cheating because kids are dumb and don't understand consequences.

If my doctor was laying on my driveway I'd drag him off and then leave. And it's morally and legally right to do so.
2010 was an amazing year for games, AAA and indie alike. Just googling [0] will show you this. On the AAA side you had Mass Effect 2, Fallout: New Vegas, Red Dead Redemption, Starcraft II, Civ 5, and much more. On the indie side Super Meat Boy, Limbo [1], VVVVVV, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, and of course, more.

I think it's cool that Microsoft is giving Minecraft players a way to support content-creators. They aren't forcing content-creators to offer their content for a fee; free mods will continue to exist. And they certainly aren't putting base gameplay behind paywalls like some mobile games do.

what will be your strategy for maintaining this library?
I think this is milquetoast logic. You acknowledge the airlines' mistakes, and then with exactly zero logic you shift the burden of consequence entirely to the victim.

Shit airline policy, shit airline decision making prior to boarding to avoid an altercation, shit airline decision making after the boarding process by being too cheap to bribe literally anyone off the plane, shit airline decision to have a "random" person forcibly removed. Yeah that's all bad but in the end it was the passengers fault for what happened? Ummm, yeah, that's shit logic. How did you just get from Exhibits A, B, C, D, and E to conclusion Z with no dots connected?

I also call bullshit on "the computer" picking someone randomly to be removed. I will eat my hat if the computer really has a random function for this purpose, rather than one based on seniority (miles status) or yet another shit decision on part of the airline shifting a personal choice to that of the computer, i.e. lying.

I'm glad this guy stuck to his decision. Even better there's video for his future lawsuit. The only thing they understand is money. And he should take as much of their money as his lawyer can possibly extract out of the airline. It's the only way airline employes who made bad decisions at literally every step along this sequence will make adjustments. Had he merely complied, it would have secured the policies as just and reasonable in the eyes of the airline, even though they aren't just or reasonable.
I think you're overstating the risk of cell culture. Trans fats, to take your example, are a side chain reaction from the hydrogenation of vegetable oils, and results in fats that were never a significant part of our diet.

Cell culture is growing more of what we've already evolved to eat.

Do I want all food tested for safety? Of course. If they were creating a brand new cell line from scratch instead of using cells we already know we can eat, I would share your concern to a much greater degree.

We use Helm together with Gitlab's CI as well. To make that process smoother, we built landscaper [1]. It receives a desired state, which is a bunch of yamls. Each yaml contains a chart-reference and values (settings). When landscaper is run during CI, it obtains the actual state (the releases) and either updates, creates or deletes to obtain the desired state. The desired state is under version control, so lately I rarely do any manual k8s work. Creating or updating a deployment is a matter of a pull request.

Probably an unpopular opinion but I don't think pre-optimization is a bad thing specially in use cases where you will need to optimize the application later, as refactoring things for optimization later is much more time consuming.

That being said, it all depends on the use case. And about your point on binary output, its not just about being able to get one binary and running it in different platforms, its also about being able to run it without much setup in the future. For example, I had a hard time getting a nodejs app that I built a few years ago running again since so many libraries were deprecated and I had a lot of broken packages, but if it was built using Go, it would just be one binary with all the dependencies packaged in and I would be able to run it without any issues.
This will hopefully be validated by some of the controlled clinical studies that are just springing up after a decades long moratorium.

I think it's helpful to distinguish between the more recreational, or life-boosting user, and those who might use it to alleviate conditions that would normally warrant psychiatric medications. For the former, you're definitely messing with a stable mind.

For the latter, this is totally a new frontier. This mechanism at least on the surface seems to mimic SSRIs, so presumably tuned properly could be a more holistic replacement, considering LSD's ability to allow people of all conditions to also do some soul searching on a personal level. Similar to how the recommended, accepted treatment is medication + therapy.

only that in a single symbolic system we can't have expressions for all of them at once.

I don't think that's true. There are only countably many different symbolic systems[1], and as we can only express countably many numbers in each, we don't leave the realm of countable.

Prions were the cause of the BSE cattle disease. more commonly known as mad cow disease in europe some years ago, which was blamed on cattle being fed animal products. It killed a couple hundred human and millions of animals either died or were slaughtered.

The incubation period is several years so at the height of the crisis the worst case scenario involved hundreds of thousand of people developing the disease.

Microsoft really should adopt this approach to customer service. It's been very successful for John Deere obviously, so for MS it should be even more successful. They could increase their profitability greatly. Who cares if it pisses off customers? They're not going anywhere; they'll just pay up and gripe about it. There is literally no reason MS should not treat their customers this way. They're missing out on a lot of revenue here.
In other words, people can do what they want with their dogs. They just need to kill them first. There are lots of ways you can do that, but starvation isn't one of them, because that's a welfare issue. Seems pretty obvious.

This should never happen; regardless of how you feel about the practice of overbooking or bumping passengers for staff, if there aren't seats available, a pre-sold ticket shouldn't be convertible into a boarding pass, and the passenger should never have been able to get onto the plane or even into the secured area of the airport (and doing this is the only sane and efficient thing to do if airlines are going to allow checked baggage at all, given positive bag matching rules.)
