Yes, of course they aren't free. I also live in a house, that's more expensive than an apartment because I like it more this way.

I often don't buy the cheapest food, but the food that I like.

I don't want to force cars on anyone - it should be an individual choice of course. What I'm saying is that there are a lot of reasons people want to own cars.

It's the choice between working with the existing system to make it better versus demanding that everyone adapts to a new system that you claim is better.

Maybe it is, but getting the whole world to change at once to a completely different and in many ways harder system is very un likely to happen.
That's wrong. Chile helps your taste buds taste fat. They really go together very well. It's what makes mixing chile with chocolate and cheese so great. It's similar to why salt+fat works. Fat numbs your taste buds and salt and chile 'wake them up'.
This just looks like bad UI to me.
On my desktop browser I often press End to get somewhere near the end of the page, here if you do that it just goes back up.

If I accidentally scroll to the end while reading something I can't scroll back up, I'll have to scroll down to the end and hope I don't scroll too far and trigger the loop again.
when you have a problem. first solve it yourself. get practical experience and make errors. then read about how other people solved it. make a better solution. write a blog post about it. share your code. argument on forums. teach it to others.
Scotch Bonnets are one of my favourites! It has a lovely fruity citrus-y taste, and is really easy to cultivate.
This seems like a premium service, because you have to choose your destination somehow, and here comes some device that you have to install in your car (I'm referring to some kind electronic toll collection + navigation system).
Also, the amount of people using this service has to be limited somehow.

Not an insurmountable issue. The community resolves the problem by tagging the offending items much like you stick a lollipop stick in dog turd at the park. Sometimes your kid still gets shit on her shoe but then you scan the items before they are dropped, keywords, whatevs. You could reduce the problem to vanishingly small.
Ultimate Android Reference – A Huge Collection of Hand-Picked Android Resources
I'm pretty sure everyone at my University was aware that they reverted those changes within a month, just by word of mouth. But the people who reinstalled it were greeted with a ghost town and didn't fully re-engage, so it never achieved critical mass.

People clone a lot of consumer apps. The ones I wish people will clone are like SAP S4/Hana ERP etc. there are not enough high quality Open source ERP systems
Society or a company of people operates like an organism at scale - it can get sick with the slightest imbalance of resources, so its collective experience builds antibodies to protect itself. If this was an idea for a portable gadget, it would probably be welcomed, but the underground tunnels and the risks that come with them (collapses, maintenance, infrastructure shifts, ecological impact) are scaring people. California's central valley and a lot of building foundations have been moving up and down with the drought and rains of late. Now imagine that happening with a mesh of concrete tunnels carrying people underneath.

That said, to assume feedback against one project is a testament to lack of entrepreneurial spirit, rings about as true as claiming people who don't like Justin Bieber are deaf.
The podcast "I don't even own a television" did an episode about the book - http://www.idontevenownatelevision.com/2015/05/22/zen-and-th...

The podcast is about "bad books" so that's the angle they approach it from, but the guys are funny, very nice and aren't super cruel or anything.

A low-resource quantum factoring algorithm [pdf]
Yes. I think there are multiple scales to give words or pairs bonus points on:

- there is also a moral outrage scale where you want at least one word to be on (if one word of the pair was about sex and the other one was about the church, that would be great and funny).

- then there is also a boringness scale (boring: "habitat", not boring: "shebang"), where you ideally want both words to score highly.

- then there is also a understandability scale. "cholecystoduodenostomy" is a bad word because very few people know what it means. Lower this down until you understand all the words and the result will be much more satisfactory.
Don't know anything about it really but it seems like greed killed this yikyak thing. Why did it have to be a unicorn when it could have just been a really nice pony? It could have made money selling anonymous polling data, sentiment, zeitgeist for marketing purposes. Everybody wants to know what the young folks are getting into next.
San Francisco is the second-densest city in the US, mind.

Did Tyler Cowen really just argue that uneducated people don't like spicy food because they don't think far enough ahead in time?
What makes you think that you are not improving? Programming is a craft where you can make pretty things with old tools as well as new. Do you feel your code works less well, or achieves less than the ones you 're comparing to? Or are you just anxious because you skip learning the newer trends?
I agree with almost everything you say, but I have a few comments.

First, TLA+ is not a model checker. It is a specification and proof language that also has tools in the form of a model checker (more than one, actually) and a mechanical proof system.

Second, it is absolutely true that TLA+'s focus is not general mathematical theorem proving, and its intended audience are engineers, but it is not so much designed around concurrent hardware/software but that it is designed for algorithms in general. This means that it is also very appropriate for reasoning about concurrent or interactive (which is just a form of concurrency), whereas general mathematical tools that are often designed to reason about constructive functions rather than algorithms, and so can naturally reason about sequential algorithms, but need extra effort to reason about interaction or concurrency.

Finally, a strong focus of TLA+ is that it can serve as a refinement calculus, namely reason about the same system/algorithm at different abstraction levels, and explore the precise relationship between the different levels.

I agree that TLA+'s most practical advantage is that for its power, it is exceptionally easy to learn and apply in practice (much of this is due to the availability of a model checker). I also agree that ultimately, the specification, reasoning, and proof work in pretty much all formal tools is much more similar than different.

Hyperloop was a completely infeasible design that Musk quite openly had no intention of building. It mainly seemed to exist as a tactic to attack actual planned public transport expansion in the Bay Area, which Musk compared it unfavourably to based on figures that didn't add up.

Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Valve, et al have taught us the major lesson: to have staying power, you must become a platform, and aggressively protect your source of lock-in. An ecosystem of applications/businesses that depend on your platform for access to a userbase is the best way to do this.

The platform giants, especially Microsoft and Google and to a lesser extent Apple and Facebook, have the power to "NetScape" any other non-platform tech company at will. Mobile apps are coming to exist at Google's mercy, like web sites dependent on "organic" traffic have for the last decade.

If Google decided they'd had enough of Uber, they could integrate ride hailing into GMaps and Uber would be done for. They just did this to a handful of startups that were oriented around real-time location tracking. [0]

I've been building my prototype using spectre.css, but I'm not a designer
Hey everyone. I thought I'd post here - fairly new to programming and I've been teaching myself web dev. I've been putting together a prototype for an idea I've had - uses a Phoenix back end, front end is a react + redux SPA. Unfortunately I am a terrible designer and so I've basically just used a library called spectre.css and only modified a few css classes (like giving buttons different colors, etc.).

I'm about 70% or so done with core functionality, but each time I look at my prototype I can't help but feel like... man, this looks so basic! I have been doing this for only a few months now, and I don't really have many colleagues who know this stuff (I'm not a engineer or smart guy like that - just decided to change my career path lol and I'm enjoying building stuff).

Question for you smart people out there who have built any web sites or web applications. Did you end up finding a partner who is good at UI design to help you once you had your core functionality down? For me, the core functionality lies in the geo location capability that I have been working on and being able to work with the map. Things like how pages look and feel - I've tried my best after studying how other sites do it.

Thanks.
Rust your ARM microcontroller
This is nice. I'm wondering how you would use it though. Probably you'd start analyzing the diagram at the top, then look at what will happen next, and then the next, etc.

But this is basically the same as just looking at the log.

Am I missing something?
I never used it but my understanding is that it was an anonymous outlet where people in the area could post and get fed into the same channel. You could say whatever you wanted without worrying it getting traced back to you, and nearby people would see it.

For obvious reasons, that was popular at colleges. Also for obvious reasons, this kind of thing is really hard to monetize. Take almost $100M in VC and this does not make for a winning combination.

Online anonymity can be freeing, but as any half-awake internet user knows, it comes with a massive mound of worms for both readers and moderators alike.

Big name investors apparently didn't realize this when they wrote the checks, so YikYak panicked and nixed its value proposition to keep investors happy and bad press diverted. It sounds like everyone stopped using it immediately, which seems only natural, as they killed its entire reason to exist.

Khan Academy’s New ‘Teacher Aid’ Tool Goes for a Test Drive in South California
It's not just your local neighbor that's suffering. You're also working to promote employee working conditions like these :

https://www.macrumors.com/2017/04/11/nyu-student-undercover-...

Note that this is the very upper end of factory worker conditions in China. For the local market, this is genuinely considered good. Knowing that conditions for "cheap" stuff produced in China are as bad as those documented in the article or (a lot) worse, it is almost immoral to buy that stuff.

If you buy cheap stuff from China or almost anywhere in Asia or Africa, you are inflicting a small amount of harm on every employee that has better conditions than that, and harm on humanity as a whole.
Works well for me on mobile Chrome. But loads way too slowly.
Not surprising at all. When some dictator puts 40,000 in jail and 200,000 others out of work and nobody stands up against him under the pretext of the failed "coup" which was committed by a couple of hundreds young officers without even trying to capture the dictator, then blocking the entire internet should be ordinary.
In the future when the effect of climate change is fully realized and there is no more denying it I do hope retro-active action can be taken perhaps in the form of lawsuits that would lead to the seizure of assets of any business entity that willfully engaged in misinformation on the subject...think fossil fuel industry and assorted politicians who helped them.
Yes, and only 40% believe it harms them personally.

Isn't Musk's track record simply to shoot for the moon (or heck, Mars), then temper things down?

He misses all his deadlines for precisely this reason.

Right now, it's just a video mocked together over two days. It's just a very, very broad "idea".

Things will change over time. Why knock something so early in the development phase?
> I can get in it right now, without any planning or waiting

That's how a proper public transport network works too. For example in London, when I want to go somewhere, I just whip out an app that plans for me the best combination of busses/subway/train/walking to accomplish that and I'm immediately on the go. The wait times are minimal (under 2-5 minutes) most of the time.

I have to point of out that over-criticizing stuff is an important part of the human psyche. People "who follow the rules" get as much flack as people who don't. Example in mind: your tax administration officer that you will probably criticize once a year for following the rules.

Governments yield too much power, meanwhile citizens keep funding said governments with ridiculously high taxes.

Trying to fix governments is counterproductive, just need to decentralize things imho.

I'm a capsaicin addict. I have a bottle of Reaper Squeezins in my fridge. The heat makes eating more of an event. It wakes me up more than coffee. Nothing makes you live in the moment more than acute physical pain. It's a strange pleasure. I'm not a masochist in any other realm. On a strange note, I'm a oral tobacco user and I swear that capsaicin followed by chew enhances nicotine absorption.

Look at Glassdoor, I'm not in US but I believe those roles are paid more than plain engineering roles. People in those roles you mentioned take more responsibilities and direct impact on company growth and earnings.
What do you mean by "decentralise"? Smaller-scope government at a local level? Anarcho-syndicalism?

I suspect many of the same issues would appear.
I did the big company route for a few years out of college and without even trying very hard, had something like an 80% savings rate. To be fair, this was a few years ago, so rents were better, but I live in an excellent location in the heart of the city and even _doubling_ my rent would leave me with a super high savings rate. I knew people making half as much as me and spending twice as much, and I'm truly baffled as to how they managed to do so. Especially since I have a weakness for (among other things) good food and beer: even if I did it regularly, spending $30 on a good beer hardly makes a dent in the kind of numbers we're talking about.
Yes, I do get that (and said as much). What I don't get is websites that are literally unusable on mobile/iOS. There's no upside to that.
I think 2016 will go down as the high water mark for a global Internet. I see a lot of countries looking at the success of China in keeping political control, and the failure of Egypt, Tunisia, etc where the open Internet was used to overthrow the regime and deciding that allowing an open, free internet is not in their best interests.
If you think that Western, liberal democracies are exempt from this, just look at the attention "fake news" and "no platform" have been getting. We are going away from the free and open interchange and discussion of ideas (even horrible ideas) to the coercive suppression of ideas (at this point bad ideas, but may not be true in the future).

Add to this that a large portion of the web content is controlled by fewer entities (if Facebook or Google bans your site, you are not going to get very much exposure). Also, we are moving from user controlled general purpose computers to secured, walked garden devices. The government by applying pressure on maybe a dozen companies, can control what type of information the average person is exposed to.

And the whole dodge that the first amendment only applies to the government is dangerous. Freedom of speech is as much a principle as a law. If we get used to large powerful non-government entities suppressing speech we do not like, it will be a brief step to accepting government doing the same or at least pressuring the non-government entities to so it.

Meanwhile, in the U.S., the administration is taking down government websites in an effort to bury climate data and scientific information. Useful to remember it's not just countries like China and Turkey that try to limit citizens' access to information.

The western shore of Jutland may qualify as the North Sea but the other two regions definitely don't.

Morever, the top layer of the Kattegatt has a much lower salinity compared to the ocean due to significant outflow of warm brackish water from the Baltic, carrying all the pollutants to the North Sea through the Skagerrak.

To be fair, the situation has actually been improving since the late 90s with tighter regulation on effluents, however I'd rather wait another 10 year before this patch of sea clears up itself.
