Is an average just a balancing act?
The reason they have to enforce chain control over Donner pass is because most Californians live in warmer climates and as such do not have snow tires. Very different to an average Colorado resident who swaps to snow tires during winter. What's the other option ? Just leave it open fully knowing that Bay Area drivers will be driving RWD, summer tires in deep snow ?
I think it is easy to get around the problems of Lorentz invariance in discrete models, as long as it is not the spacetime that is explicitly discretized on the lattice. The lattice must be some other combinatorial graph structured algebra, with non-local 'propagation' of fields. Quantum Mechanics says that space is only defined relationally on the intervals between field interactions: a 'particle' is only localized as a particle when it interacts (position or momentum observable). So discrete space and time appear as values on some subset of lattice nodes in response to some propagating fields ('particles' only at the interaction event). The slogan for this is 'spooky distance at an action', because it is the (inter)action that defines the space(time).

QM (and QFT) assume a background time, it is not an observable, even though it appears to commute with energy (e.g. energy is momentum in the time direction). So it's more tricky to understand how time emerges in a discrete Quantum Gravity, but I suspect there is an intrinsic proper time, defined by interactions with the 'vacuum' (minimal field states on the underlying lattice), which bootstraps a relational time defined over intervals between interactions.
"Exquisite" chess sets are among the worst kind of kitsch. Why? Because they are non-functional. No one would play a serious or even a friendly game of chess with them.

So what is their function, other than to convey clutter, confusion, and ugliness? Perhaps "to capture the game's global heritage."
This could be used as a good game mechanic. Nicely done!

Lets say I run a news site. I'm hip and modern and I want to host my stuff with static HTML5 using modern open source encoding (VP9/WebM). I don't want to force my users to use some crummy Flash player that will slow down their browser and be unsafe.

But I don't want the user's browser to provide an immediate and obvious "DOWNLOAD" button on my content. Sure, if they really want to, they can inspect the page and download the video. But having a download button right in my content is not the user experience I have in mind for this site. Not because I don't want people downloading my videos. But because I don't want to ADVERTISE downloading my videos, which is what this button does without my consent.

So since that's a non-starter, now I'm going to have to use a crappy flash player that will reintroduce that small barrier preventing them from having an obvious "download" button.
NK is a threat to its Soth Korean and Japanese neighbours, both US allies. So the US will never increase trade with NK to appease its sociopathic dictator. Rather than that they are moving a strike group with Aegis anti-ICBM missle capability into the area and talking to China saying "if you don't handle Kim, we will".

I doubt there is going to be any attack on NK. The strike group maneuver is merely ment to discourage Kim and show South Korea and Japan that the US is still a reliable ally.

I don't have any numbers, but it probably depends on whom you ask. According to Wikipedia (in Russian) [1], 84% of the people in Kazakhstan can speak Russian, and 74% can speak Kazakh. Ethnically, 22% of the population is Russian, and 66% is Kazakh [2]. In urban areas, it is not unusual to encounter ethnic Kazakhs who speak Russian but not Kazakh.

It is likely that the Russian language will continue to play a strong role in Kazakhstan, so many people will probably need to know both the Latin and the Cyrillic alphabets, once the transition takes place.

Much like Reddit, the value at SA is in niche sub forums. I haven't looked at GBS in years but still visit places like Ask/Tell, Book Barn, etc as well as specific game threads. (Is this like advanced "there's a front page?) I bookmark them and visit via the control panel pretty much exclusively. Big threads are like communities, especially around specific games and TV shows. It's wild to me that SA is still a thing after all these years (I started in 2001) but I think the site has been through so much that it can survive anything these days.
There's a big difference between "we have a good relationship so I'll do X" and forcing third parties to enforce those protections.

Russian is still the most important language in Kazakhstan, although that could shift in the future.

My wife is from Kazakhstan, but her ancestors are from Ukraine, and they moved to Kazakhstan during the USSR. Her family only know a few words of Kazakh, and this is relatively common for people who were born and grew up in the USSR. Right now, you cannot get a good job in the city unless you are fluent in Russian, although there is a lot of pressure to move everything to the Kazakh language.

In the past, the pressure was so strong that some official government forms were only made available in Kazakh. But they have reverted that decision, so now everything is still available in both Russian and Kazakh.
Why American Airstrikes Go Wrong

Most of the teritory of turkey was a part of Byzantine empire with Greek being the main language there. Large part on the east was Armenia, and there were many other nations with their own languages, Assyrians, Lazi, Kurds, Yezidis.
Turkey successfully got rid of majority of non-muslim nations and their languages by 1920s and works on getting rid of Kurdish since then.

By reading the docs on the grid it seems like its the same as bootstraps 4.0 grid. The classes are exactly the same.

I will stick with bootstrap just because I am working with it a long time it has WAY more exposure, people building on top of it, contributing...

The difference between 7 KB and 20 KB gzipped is not really that big of a deal for me. Also you can obviously custom build bootstrap and just cut the modules out you don't need.

Also in that context of this small size difference I think its perfectly fine to compare it to the big frameworks out there.
> I recognized him as a knowledgeable person from the Internet, and I knew (1), so I just asked him to send without PGP to save me 5 minutes.

I understand where you're coming from but this bit of logic I don't get. Especially if you recognized him, then clearly it's worth spending the five minutes.

The five minutes you personally save, someone else has to pay them. The person who originally sent you the email now has to read the response, process it, send you another non-encrypted email and/or enter into a meta-debate with you. They end up mentioning it on their blog and now we're all having this meta-meta-chat about it on hacker news, wasting several man-hours on it.

Was it worth it?
Money is circulating, thus the concept of taxing it only once seems a bit silly. We could argue endlessly who is really paying which taxes. E.g. if you tax income you are really just obscuring the fact that you are taxing the company who is paying this income, but the company will rise prices accordingly, so it's actually a hidden tax on consumption, etc.
It's fascinating that Apple simply stashes this cash and effectively sits on it. They generally never do large acquisitions over 500M nor do they invest in new areas as heavily as Google as Amazon. Perhaps it stems from the companies near death experience in the 90's that is still embedded in it's DNA - so they just save the cash just in case.
I think it's a YMMV thing. I'm at google, and I'm pretty certain that a lot of my improvement as a programmer came from time spent posting/irc-ing with the SA programmer crew, to the degree that I don't think I would've made it to google without it.
But, definitely spent too much time there.
Precisely this is the reason I've lost hope with regards to OCaml as a main language. Multicore, specifically, is one of those things that has been "close" for so long that it's looking like a Duke Nuke'em Forever feature. I keep track of OCaml regularly because I love the language and I find that it's probably the best combination of features in one place, both in terms of my enjoyment as a programmer and in terms of the performance of the language.

I've come to realize later, though, that there's one glaring problem: Runtime inspection really is much more valuable to me than clean syntax and programmer comfortability when I'm building a system. With that in mind, maybe it'll never be very interesting to build a bigger system in a language like OCaml, even though it offers you a lot in terms of programmer efficiency as well as high performance.

Maybe it's better to glue together OCaml programs on the BEAM (The Erlang VM) so that you're able to orchestrate them and introspect them and get proper handling and oversight of the different components of your system. Maybe all that makes multicore in OCaml mostly pointless for you in practise.

Of course, not everyone will use the BEAM and OCaml together, so for them it matters a lot. I've come to see it as a worrying sign of a community that doesn't care to evolve enough, more than anything, and that's why OCaml is not as interesting as it could be.

It should be said that languages that supposedly are made for building systems also lack this runtime introspection and oversight. They have no way to locate and refer to their threads and no way to automatically handle their successes and failures. These languages are wildly popular, and so none of the above apparently matters to the vast majority of people. I think it's an interesting argument around (or against?) multicore in OCaml.
In Google Translate (English to Russian), "Ukraine" and "the Ukraine" both give the same result, namely "Украины". Not surprising, given Russian lacks the definite article "the".

However, "the Outskirts" translates to "окраины", which when pronounced, sounds very close to "Украины". "Uh cra eena" vs "Oo cra eena".

Translating Russian to English involves interpolating articles, definite and indefinite. I now have an inkling of how this controversy arose.
Because ultimately shareholders (barring kooky Google stock arrangements) own the company. Practically, they select board members (Apple recently added the "3%+ stakeholders may nominate new members" clause), who select the CEO, who would propose and implement such a scheme.

So distributing it to employees, while noble and just (imo) would require shareholders to vote against their own immediate interests.

In practice, there's probably some friction, but you can damn well believe with numbers this large Tim Cook would be sued in a heartbeat if he attempted to implement such a scheme.
Creating a real ghost in the shell
The common mistake in "hippy philosophy" is assuming that since we are ultimately subsets of the universe, we ARE the universe, here and now.

Problem is, things are made up of a bunch of components. And operate due to internal and external mechanisms.

Objects exist as causal sets.

We all might be one, when it comes to that we are manifestations of electromagnetic energy. But that's a superset of the here and now.

We're physical beings at the bottom rung, and maybe more when you take the russian doll nested sets apart. But that doesn't change the fact that each part is just as integral to identity in the here and now, or well, the physical human part might be even more important in the here and now.

So yeah, we're all "one" as members of the universe. But don't let that fool you into thinking you're transcending right here and now. Everythings made from components. Everything has supersets and subsets that keep it going. You are not a brain in a jar here and now. But you may be a brain in a jar there and far. So keep a level head. And don't dismiss the philosophy that grounds you.

To be honest, I don't like the Qbix Compensation Model. One reason to work for someone else is that they are taking the risk. Within reason, no matter what I do at work, I'll get paid the same at the end of the month. Yes, there is the risk the company could go out of business (a form of job security I guess), and yes, I would expect a fair annual review, but ultimately, I'm able to plan in the medium term for a consistent income.

> But it maintained quality via community, and through a simple $10 barrier.

One thing written-out of the official history. 10bux was introduced when SA had a wide variety of infringing bittorrent links in various subforums. Somehow, Lowtax shut this down before he got busted for it, but if anyone ever mentioned it for years afterward, insta-permaban.

The idea that $10 was quality control developed later. The real rules had nothing do with "quality" and were always opaque and deeply political. Pretty much a Lord of the Flies scenario -- which was great if you loved internet drama, and they weren't coming after you. SA's business model was essentially semi-randomly banning people who would re-register. I haven't been back in more than ten years, so things might have changed. But to pretend they were trying to foster some great community ... no. Just no. Goons were acknowledgedly horrible people engaged in online barbarism.

This is why video content websites suck. Getting in the way will only frustrate users.

In my country there is a legal right to copy audio and video content for your own consumption. We can download your video, play it on the TV in living room, save it to our phones and watch it in the train to work. And if your content is interesting enough, people will do so.

If your site were interesting enough, I'd probably write a quick Chrome extension that adds a big download button to save others the hassle of going through the developer tools.
Re 2, if that becomes your plan make sure you research immigration law in the country you choose first. It's not always legal to just move to a new country and start applying for jobs.

A history of breaking immigration rules won't help your eventual visa application.
Sure, going from recognizing letters to actually reading is what I meant by learning language. If you have some degree of familiarity with a language, you're no longer looking at individual letters and pattern matching them with symbols in your head. You're able to take in a word or multiple words at a time.

And at least some of the English/Japanese difficulty is due to fact that you're also changing systems of writing, going from an alphabet to a pictographical system. Comparing that with English to Spanish is almost unfair because of the fact that so many English words of French and Latin origin have very similar cognates in Spanish. I'd imagine you'd have similar troubles if you tried to learn Hindi/Devanagari for instance. Devanagari is an abugida, so you'd need to learn all of the letters in the alphabet and a whole bunch of "modifications" to the consonants that denote adjoining vowels.

You do know that Korea was artificially split in half due to the ongoing war, don't you?

Germany was also split, and was reunited. I don't believe it's necessary to explain why.
Political and maybe ultimately economical. Latin script isn't much attractive due to southern Europe but mostly due to the enormous economic success of USA following the British Empire. Kazakh or any other nation want their children to learn English as it matters the most in addition to their mother tongue. Russian children too want to learn English for most. So any other secondary power in the world is shadowed by English. Slowly people don't want to learn French or German or Russian because they are those Nationals themselves striving to learn English as the business academic and travel language.

So the success of American economy drives the success of English and Latin script. Imho.

Your consent does not matter how content is ultimately rendered on and by the user's machine, it's their machine, not yours. If they want the <video> element displayed in a specific way it will be displayed in a specific way. This merely gives you an illusion of control, control you never had since video elements (especially their context menu) are not part of the DOM.

Well, except that North Korea's economic system is a part of a one-package deal defined by communism, that comes with the repressive political systems and social structure.

In fact, communism's central planned economy isn't possible without communism's oppressive political system and extensive repression efforts.

Why?

More importantly: why would you, given your desire to control presentation to the sending side, use a technology which fundamentally gives that control to the receiving side?
