I'm sure you know this, but NP-hardness results only matter for worst-case instances. Even if Bitcoin's algorithm is roughly close to optimal on real-world instances, it doesn't mean somebody won't be able to generate a series of transactions that cause the algorithm to exhibit worst-case behaviour.

Also, the NP-hardness results would apply even if the Bitcoin algorithm is updated.

Because to them it's obvious. Most maths teachers are so far ahead of the students they forgot they once were students themselves.

I've had 3 different ones in high school and the difference was incredible. All the way from 'only the best students learn anything' to 'everybody earns at least a passing grade'.

Maths and physics were the classes where the quality difference between the teachers stood out the most.

Forgoing revenues, potential profits and taxes on selling/leasing the property(@ pre-2008 market highs); writing off loses of rental income; property depreciation; betting on rising real estate prices(all were still chanting "buy RE, it will only go up" pre-2008). Those are some some possibilities I can think of, but IANAL or CBRE agent, but when I asked one why the blighted corners owned by the biggest earners on Wall Street during the skyrocketing RE bubble were sitting vacant for years, the answer was there was no expectation to sell or lease. And it was not a tank problem, the tanks were removed as the boards went on the windows.

This all makes sense to me as these cryptocurrencies mostly remain experiments with minimal effect on the real world, but what happens if one of them takes off, as they all aim to?

The odd thing about this whole thing is that, in my opinion, SnapChat exists in a different realm than Facebook. Facebook is just this thing that almost everyone has and maintains for social reasons that allows you to connect, for whatever reason, to almost anyone you can think of.

SnapChat is this quirky interesting app for people you know and actively want to share things with. You all see each other's stories and have chats that disappear and don't mean anything, in fact a lot times the messages disappear by accident and that's the fun of it, it's an ongoing dumb chat for friends.

I actually find it interesting that SnapChat doesn't push you to connect with other people by e-mail or other oddball algos, it's mostly just through phone number- your uncle's friend can't "friend request" you. It's one of the few apps where if I want to connect with you, I gotta really want to connect with you and if I don't, good luck finding me!

Facebook is a phonebook. It serves a different market, the way LinkedIn serves a different market. The way Twitter serves a different market

Facebook can copy all the features of SnapChat, infact, great! I hope SnapChat can get some royalties for the idea, but I'll reckon a large subset of FB users don't have SnapChat, nor want to even bother messing around with its "confusing" UI. It's nice that this subset can have these new "toys".

SC users aren't going to abandon it for FB though, it's still just THAT vanilla social site where, literally, everyone and your mom is on.
That was honestly my thoughts too.

I used Thunderbird years ago; now I'm a very happy Nylas user. I don't doubt that the Thunderbird team could spend the next 3 years building a very polished desktop mail app using web technologies, but uh...

...do we need another? And if so, wouldn't it be better to fork Nylas as a base? I mean, they could probably get most of the way their with a couple pull requests to make themes more powerful and a custom theme...
I sent 100s of LinkedIn emails saying 'Im a software entrepreneur interested in learning about the problems/challenges in your industry. Would you be open to chatting? I have nothing to sell and only want to learn.'

Then I'd call them up and chat.

At first I'd setup calls only with those who responded.

Then I began calling up people even if they did not respond.

Most people are happy to talk about problems.

I am a former homemaker. Given how far I have gotten by following the principle of treat the underlying cause of the pain, presumably actual doctors and scientists could get a great deal further if that principle was a driving force in their work. Instead, they tend to say shitty things to people like me, such as "People like you don't get well. Symptom management is the name of the game."

Yeah, dude, if you make zero effort to get me well because you are psychologically comfortable with writing me off for dead already, it should come as no surprise when the lack of effort leads to a lack of improvement.

装逼 drunbility
Yes, that's what I meant. Off the top of my head: 2.0 adds mesh gradients, a "bearing" command to path data, text that wraps (or possibly fills a cavity/shape, can't remember), manual z-ordering, and probably other new features that I didn't notice.

However, it sounds like the browsers have essentially rejected a lot of those new features. If the idea is that they instead use the 2.0 spec only for the clarifications and cruft cleanup that you mention, that would reduce complexity and be a good thing.
What keyboards are everyone using for these setups? I find by the time you've got three layers (desktop, tmux, vim) the bindings are getting really complicated and inconsistent. Alt-tab might switch applications but then some lower programs use alt for a lot of things.

I'd love something configurable, like a dedicated WM key, a dedicated tmux key and a dedicated vim/app key.

I'm sure it's possible to setup manually, but it would take a lot of work.
I went through all the 2-year releases since 10.04 and if you go through it for every release it's a fairly small incremental change for the most part.

That being said, systemd is a larger change, but I just use a single script to start supervisord, then run all my stuff under that anyway.
It is interesting to note that company and employee loyalty is becoming more scarce, as well as on the job training being uncommon. It does not bode well for the state of the industry, if more and more companies are having a revolving door problem with employees.
It's not sales, it's mentoring. A lot of established business folks like to do a bit of it.

No - I'd really love it if they didn't become disposable. Sustainability, however, isn't why people have different expectations of batteries vs dryers. I didn't mean to imply a cheap, portable, but flimsy dryer would be a good thing.

That's correct. There is no change to Docker CE or Docker EE. We are adding a 3d thing, upstream from both of them: Moby. We use Moby to assemble all the pieces of Docker. You can also use it to assemble all the pieces of other things like Docker, and maybe in the process collaborate with Docker on the common parts.

An IMAP server alone typically doesn't include the equivalents of fetchmail and the like. It just provides a protocol for remotely accessing the mail store.

However, I don't see why you think it would be impossible for most users to set up what I'm describing. If they can install Thunderbird and configure it to retrieve mail from their ISP or GMail or whatever, they could install a two-part system and configure the store part to do the same using exactly the same information.

In particular, just installing both parts on a single PC would work fine and provide equivalent functionality to current standalone mail clients like Thunderbird. You just have the flexibility to connect other devices to the same store and safely access your mail from those as well, or to install the store part on some other place on the network like an office server or maybe a NAS at home if you want to.

You're talking to the wrong person. I entirely agree with J. K. Rowling's right to earn millions from her writing. Because that's what people were willing to pay her for it. How else can we decide how to take money from one person and give it to another besides the market? Who do you want to pay that money? The taxpayer? Are you wanting free income for every author, artist, game player or hobbiest so they don't have to suffer unpleasant work? That might well be a valid idea but it's quite different from what you said. How do you "earn" a living when you're supported by charity?

Edit: What are you proposing instead of the current market situation? Do you want publishers to do something different? Governments? GoogFaceAzons? Readers? The general populace?
Haha, thanks buddy, I didn't know websites could trigger nostalgia. Brings back memories from twenty years ago, amazing it's still around with the exact same layout.
Please don't email me about this comment, but have you given much consideration to the possibility that your particular form of the disorder you have happens to be unusually mild?
There are certainly particular instances in particular regions or zones that are cheaper than the preemptible price we've set. If you look at larger instances, we often are drastically cheaper. Add in the per-minute versus per-hour pricing, and some customers have seen massive wins (I recall one at nearly 10x less).

The distinction, as you've surmised, is that predictability is awfully useful. This 220k run (and Drew's quick 400k run last Sunday) had a predictable price. I doubt that such a run on Spot would have left the market price untouched ;).

That said, we absolutely have excess capacity that maybe having an auction clearing mechanism would fill. But I don't think it's worth the customer pain. Moreover, even Drew has come to us from Spot, suggesting that simplicity at a usually-fair/good price can take market share away (and reminder this is a fast growing market!).

The PDF is 1892715 bytes = 1.892715 MB. I rounded to two significant digits, giving 1.9 MB.

When Gutenberg says 1.8 MB they probably actually mean 1.8 MiB. 1892715 bytes = 1.80503368377685546875 MiB, or 1.8 MiB to two significant digits.

May be I'm missing something but all I read was this writer met an painter few times. What did they discussed? what were his stories? what the author learned more about Japan? There doesn't seem to be hint of those. Feels like I wasted my time reading the whole thing through in anticipation author would say something about the mysteries behind the mysterious stranger he was talking about.
I get what you're saying, but I wouldn't cut it just like that. I mean, you could and it would kind of be valid, but hear me out. In my opinion, SF is really about thought experiments, psychological stress to the extreme and what if's. One could imagine a story with a swords and sorcery and still keep it like that. There's also that whole science aspect of SF which I don't think has to be held up to literally. Fantasy, in contrast, is more goal oriented where there's a clear hero's journey line to it. Whether more stories in fantasy wield a sword could lean distinction like you've mentioned. I'm trying to keep the line more at the base level.

FWIW, I've been in TV and Film and storytelling for the better part of last ten years or so, so I might have another perspective on it. I'm looking at the distinction based on character development. SF stories have character arc driven by internal goals, whereas Fantasy is more the opposite where external motivation is the one driving the development of the inner goal (a proverbial journey, if you will). It's not a clear line when you look at the story structure, but it's definitely clear when you look at the arc and inner vs outer motivation on the character development front.

I've been taught of a certain way of developing stories, so maybe that's my bias. Always develop the character change first and then build the supporting ones and their arcs as well. Then, build a story structure around it (like a separate supporting structure on top of it). Character change IS the story. If character is the same in the beginning and the end, you haven't told a story. The way character changes, not the mechanics, but expression of goals is usually what defines the genre in my opinion. Theme, setting, story structure, and rhythm are flairs which can be genre-specific, but are on top of the 'main story'.

I might've gone maybe too much into it though.

If you don't want people to have to keep track of another password you could implement a sans password login system.

1. In the login form, ask for an email.

2. When a user inputs an email, send an authenticated link to their email. This link contains an authentication key that can be used to perform a one time login (or several) to an account associated with the corresponding email.

3. If a user has logged out or needs to login from another device, simply enter your email again and receive a new authentication link (or use the email you received in the past).

4. If a user logs out, invalidate all the previously generated login URLs.

This is similar to the 30x500 method. There are a lot of places where people are talking online. Make sure you have a grasp of that before you talk to someone face to face. It is far easier to discern patterns when you can look over many conversations quickly.

If you don't think there's a group of people online discussing the problem you are trying to solve, then you either haven't looked that hard, don't know the domain, or have a golden opportunity to build the community and have that be a source of leads and content. Depending on your demographic, Reddit, Facebook or forums are good places to look.
