Carbides are a double edge sword. On the one hand they impart "wear resistance" but only if the heat treatment is done right (read: very precisely). Frequently, that is not how commercial stainless is done, though. On the other hand, they can make it harder to sharpen.

Usually, good heat treatment can lead to fine grain carbides, while bad heat treatment does not get the carbides into solution very well prior to quenching and they get too large. (This is not the same thing as grain growth). When they are big, they impart roughness to the edge and difficulty of sharpening with no benefits in wear resistance as the steel matrix around them wears away.

If you are interested in this, I can't recommend John Verhoeven's "metallurgy for bladesmiths" enough. It is a free PDF if you search for it. (If you like open source things, I recommend reading the foreword especially).
> one that waives the foreign currency conversion fee

I have a credit card for precisely this purpose (it's also general-purpose cash back). It's not as useful as you might expect -- most places in China that accept foreign credit cards do so only through an agreement with a chinese bank that imposes a ridiculously disadvantageous exchange rate. (But there's no "conversion fee" -- the bank generously bills you in USD. How nice of them.) They don't seem to be able to bill your card in yuan directly even though the card supports it.

On the other hand, my debit card from the same bank that also has no foreign currency conversion fee works perfectly to get cash from ATMs.

Dart and NaCl actively ignored outside feedback, even when in retrospect the feedback was clearly correct.

Few Web developers wanted Dart, and this was clear at the time Google went to ECMA. They pushed ahead with a standard anyway despite no other browser vendor signing on board. You can call anything a standard, but without a multi-vendor process, and with only a single implementation, the idea of a standard is pretty meaningless.

And, regarding Dart, on the WebKit side, many WebKit contributors were (quite reasonably) opposed to adding support for pluggable languages to the DOM, because of the unavoidable overheads introduced by this. As far as I recall, no solution to the problem of cross-language GC, which is one of the biggest issues here, had been even really proposed at the time. Google continued on ahead, forking WebKit into Blink, introducing Dartium, and then ending the project. Now, with Dartium dead, it has become clear in retrospect that the WebKit community was right all along: you don't want multiple incompatible languages hooked up to the DOM.

NaCl may have been "open" in that Chromium was open source, but the dependency on Pepper meant that Google's implementation was Chrome-only. Google solicited feedback on Pepper back in 2010, but Apple and Mozilla engineers provided compelling arguments as to why Pepper was unnecessary. They ignored the feedback and did it anyway. Now, after seven years, NaCl is obsolete in favor of the multi-vendor Web Assembly, which uses the Web APIs instead of Pepper—exactly the approach that everyone else on the plugin-futures mailing list had advocated in the first place.

A lot of unnecessary work would have been avoided if NaCl and Dart had been more receptive to feedback.

This is a complicated problem and is I think best thought of as type of overfitting rather than a complete mistake. The independent or output variable, sentiment, does have an obvious generalisation from movies to politicians, unlike, for example, cinematography quality or trustworthiness. You are also overtraining when you test movie sentiment in the 2010s with reviews trained in the 90s as the concept of sentiment might have shifted if you look at it in that much detail.

They sold to that particular client, the client paid it, and then later the store revoked the sell. When the client refuses to return the item at that point, doesn't he become a theft? <<.

I am sorry to say the client is not trespassing since he already paid, he got this seat number and is already seated in the plane.
The trespassers were the 4 employers that the crew has decided to kick the 4 others clients. That is called favoritism.

I've suffered from occipital nueralgia for over 10 years now. Luckily mine isn't as severe as it ca be for some. I'm able to self treat by applying pressure when it gets really bad. So I manage and it doesn't effect my life much aside from usually being a cranky son of a bitch to my wife, which I do regret.

Once a few years ago I had an "occipital nerve block". That's where a pain specialist injects novacain into the nerve. I was pain free for about a month, it was marvelous. But insurance didn't cover it so I never got one again.

About a month ago I woke up feeling like I was high or something. I was in physical bliss. I realized it was the first time in many years I'd been totally pain free. It made me kinda sad.

PostScript is a terrible intermediate graphics format. It is not structured like how SVG is, and thus does not lend itself well to editing. Consider the basic example of text: there is no such thing as a "text box" or "flow" in PostScript; rather, individual letters are placed at coordinates.

You're right that Canvas is analogous to PostScript; Canvas also would make a terrible intermediate format. Sure, we could use it as one; it would certainly be a more universal final format than SVG; but then, what's wrong with PostScript there? It's certainly less verbose.

Blurring the lines between data and code is a tarpit. I look forward to the day it's universally recognized to have been a dead end in the evolution of our field.

> customers having to either walk through/past chain restaurants or having to find some weird side door to enter directly

Having lived in NYC & LA, I've not had to walk through some weird side door to enter movie theaters. Theaters are straightforward: a lobby for tickets, a station where a person checks your ticket, the concession stand (overpriced food & drinks), and the theater doors.

Oftentimes theaters are located in crowded shopping areas with dining options, but you don't get lost since the theater physically takes up so much space and has signage everywhere directing you to the prominent entrance.

This shitty system thrives because of people that think like you.

Firstly, you mention some magical words like "good work", which mean nothing. Secondly, you wrongfully label a large group of people as wanting "something for nothing".

This holds, of course, if we agree that "paying off" means more than managing to survive, which is the only thing most people get for "working hard".

There are alternatives to what they've done. They could have opted to not use the pre-order money to fund their operations (Until more funding could be secured). They could have protected it, as soon as they realized that they are in deep financial trouble. Compare this story to that of Lily - where when the party ended, it seems like the company has plans to give customers partial refunds. [1]

Instead, from all external appearances, they did everything they could to do right by themselves - not their customers.

My corp can't use Azure. We really want to, we're mostly a MSFT shop that runs a largish SaaS application.

After six months of support calls MSFT cannot get it unscrewed. We're spending 50k USD per month with another cloud provider, and want to move to Azure to take advantage of SQL Azure and MSDN credits. But their screwed up account management system is losing them this revenue.

not a serious reply, but while we are listing out SVG alternatives, heres an obscure one named IDEAL[1] that came with System V UNIX. (linked: the manual in postscript format)

the basic vector primative in IDEAL is a complex number, for making rotations "easier". The language itself is one of the few examples of a fully constraints oriented language. functions rather than taking input parameters, simply have free variables. you can supply constants for any of them and the system will resolve when there is only one possible solution. the output of IDEAL is dvi which could be fed into TROFF to print.

Or increase the flood insurance premiums to ensure the homeowners are aware of the risks and are contributing to it. Currently Florida has one of the lowest premiums for federally supported flood insurance. Ridiculous.

See this from the article:

The National Flood Insurance Program is up for reauthorization this year; fiscal conservatives have said they want to use that opportunity to reduce the program’s subsidies, so that people are paying something closer to the full cost of their risk.
A cut in federal subsidies would particularly hurt Florida, which despite its exposure pays the lowest average flood-insurance premiums in the country, according to FEMA data.
"Such large troves" are, in this case, on the order of 1000 tons. That's like a few dozen dump trailers of wood chips or compost or other organics that might be decomposed.

My interpretation of what he says was basically McD's has more leverage. Part of establishing a restaurant is establishing enough return clientele at a certain location. And a large portion of the clientele might stay with the owner if it turned into a Jack in the Box. But this number drops off a cliff if it's also across the street. So the BATNA for a non-McDonalds franchisee is just switching franchises, and taking a hit to their business. But the BATNA for a McDonald's franchise is starting all over again.

I don't think that's le Guin's thesis. The Dispossessed is her book that explores the nature of utopia, its subtitle is "an ambiguous utopia" even. I think the focus of omelas is the juxtaposition of outward peace and prosperity and internal brutality. The key to the book is how people react to seeing the rotten core of their society. It's not a thesis on what all societies look like-- le Guin has constructed many complex, lifelike societies that don't have such brutally evil defects, but a kind of society that sounds awfully familiar. The point of this story is how one reacts to the revelation of the society's nature, both within the narrative and externally in the reader. Who walks away from Omelas?

You're listing two companies that are veritable unicorns in Toronto. There are a handful of successful mid-level companies like those in the city, and tens of thousands of hungry developers earning far less at non-technologically focused companies.

The average Torontonian (in any field) earns ~$50-70k and costs here are quite high still, even if they trail San Francisco by ~30%.

To wit: on that average salary you certainly won't starve, but pick one: save money, buy a car, have a child (and that might be a stretch).

> Standards are standards because there are many groups of people with many different, and changing, requirements using them. That's why they get complex.

This doesn't correspond to the information I have about SVG. As far as I know, W3 consortium rejected numerous proposals for a vector graphics standard and created their own from scratch. But I was not sure of that, so I did a little online research.

I found this page linked from Wikipedia:

https://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Secret_Origin_of_SVG

> The SVG WG examined the general requirements and the various submissions, and decided to not 'develop' any of the submissions, but to develop a new language informed by, but not really based on, any of the submissions.

According to this page, they claim they invented it themselves, "not really based on" any of the submissions.

I actually do not know if the other submissions there are as much of a muddle as SVG, but I doubt it.
I think the closest contender isn't on this list because there's no need to fluff it up on a regular basis - New York. They don't need to keep telling themselves they'll be the next silicon valley.
> Static typing makes improper method calling errors impossible and data hiding prevents someone from accidentally modifying internal state but we still use Python. Explicit returns makes accidental data leaking impossible but we still use Ruby. Explicit casting and comparing by value instead of identity would make all of JS's conditional errors disappear.

No, we can't "play this game all day". Those errors don't result in arbitrary code execution with anything remotely approaching the frequency that UAF does.

> I completely agree with 1/3 but there are other solutions to this problem like W^X which gives similar benefits and doesn't require rewriting everything in a different language.

W^X comes nowhere near offering similar benefits. I even specifically mentioned ROP chains to defuse that notion…
