:-p China would NEVER understand the concept of Indian Chinese food either. We've changed the traditional Chinese food so significantly that...

And it is the second most popular "cuisine" in India after traditional Indian food.
I think it's because for 9000 euros the students can study medicine in their home countries at a good university and not have to learn German, then move many places in the world with a skilled employment visa.

Wait, they actually green lit a case about stepping on a flag? To what end? Does the FBI realize how many open missing persons cases there are? This whole quote is nauseous.

There are plenty of people doing that but by hand. I figure that's about minimum wage, doing it like this should be quite a bit more lucrative.

Bose QC 25/35 over ear headphones are the best I've come across. Not Ideal for sleeping on a plane but they block out nearly all plane noise (which is why I bought them. Good sound reproduction, and with the 25s you can use them as normal headphones if the battery dies.
Omar Khadr wasn't a US citizen. And yes, as awful putting underage people in prison is, that's not the same as being denied a passport for some random brush with the FBI which is your claim. I don't think 'Really?' is a license to change the subject to a completely different set of circumstances and use that as supporting evidence for your seemingly hyperbolic initial claims.
Piper at the Gates of Hell: Interview with Cyberpunk Legend John Shirley [2014]
The Gilroy Garlic Festival has been running for decades now. They've had plenty of time to work out the bugs.
Let's put it this way: WHEN (and IF) Zeta works, people can discuss its suitability for audio work, and how it would cater to the VST crowds. Until then, this is beyond premature discussion...
Most of the times starting with the wrong premise is worse than starting with no premise at all.
From Bahamian paper, http://www.tribune242.com/news/2017/apr/28/tribune-comment-f...

"... those who met with the organisers of the Fyre Festival shared that the timeframe was far too short for such an ambitious event ... organisers were again advised to reschedule the event to avoid competing with the famous 60 and more-year-old George Town regatta ... this Regatta is the highlight of the George Town social calendar. All hotel rooms, transportation, taxis and majority of the rental houses are booked years in advance for this week. Clearly, this would pose a logistical nightmare and preclude any additional tourists or locals from attending such an event as Fyre Festival."
No it's terrible, and the fact that you don't notice is exactly the problem. See also: monads. If you understand the basic process of what's going on (preparing food) and what it's meant to do (produce a delicious treat), formalizing your understanding in this way feels like concise and clear insight. If you don't yet know anything, it will be meaningless word salad where each 'answer' produces a multitude more questions.

Note e.g. that I never once cited an actual cake, I merely provided an example of a category of cakes. This too is a problem with mathematics, so in love with their abstractions, they no longer notice the lack of the concrete.

Yes, but it was concurrent with the automobile-ification of the US, so it's hard to trace that to causal effect vs. correlation.

Here's a decent review from 2013. There may be new research, so if you have a better source, please share.

It was quite interesting, but, as usual with these internet pages, it would have benefitted from some editing to reduce the length, remove much of the vacuous ranting, and make the conclusions of the article clearer.
They did code that project, but it's also worth pointing out that the exploit in question wasn't widely known in the community until a week prior to the hack, when TheDAO was already live. Even some of the official tutorial material on the ethereum.org website had similar vulnerabilities.
Many of his base don't believe in global warming, or if they do that it's big problem, or that it's too costly to fix. Skip to about 6 minutes in of this TED talk to get an idea on how some people think about climate change:

Variance isn't the best lens here, better to look at the distributions. It's also a discrete problem, so EV isn't as precise as looking at all the possible combinations.
And it shows not to believe your own hype no matter how much you generate. Hype doesn't deliver the MVP, logistics and execution deliver the MVP.

Although people paying that kind of money want a tad bit more than minimum.

[edit] I really don't want to make fun of other people's misfortune, but I couldn't help but think that would have made an awesome setting for a sequel to Tucker & Dale vs. Evil.
Great point. I've always been puzzled about how advertisers get any ROI online. I'm a very heavy internet user on a variety of topical areas, and my lifetime value for a content site is zero. Exceptions are NY Times, my local paper and Gartner, where either my employer or I pay for the content.

I rarely click on ads. I've probably been a successful ad conversion less than a dozen times since 1996.

Print is different. Getting ads is a significant reason for having a newspaper subscription. Many magazine ads are both more useful and more effective than the ad units that you se online. I probably made a Nikon/Canon decision based on a combination of print ads.

Yeah, American Chinese food is mostly Cantonese, which is only one of the eight major cuisines in China. Even if it were exactly the same as Cantonese food in China (it is not, apparently), it would still be unfamiliar to most Chinese people
This reminds me of an Atlantic article that I found quite disturbing : https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2000/12/a-new-w...

It is about the origin pathological ideas and how the internet might make them more prevalent.
It is written by PR people, wire services and politicos. The journalist simply assembles the ready-made components into the lowest energy configuration.
It was in the middle of WWII. The FBI's zeal was pretty high at that time.
Have you ever used Rancher OS? Not trying to sound like a judgemental jerk, but the arguments you are making are clearly from someone who is commenting based on a preconceived notion of what it is, without knowing what it really is. Instead of combating others in comments because they can't succinctly describe it to you, go research it instead. If you don't care enough to look into it, you shouldn't be caring to argue in the comments.
It is still a bit shocking to see how many people are not getting the distinction between an API and a RESTful service.

They are very different things and they have very different goals. The hint is in: how much do you value the client?

If you have full control over both client/server or if we don't care about any 3rd party developing a client library for your service, then go with something like GraphQL or gRPC or SOAP with a nice, typed spec you can generate your code from and optimize the heck out of the bytes coming through the tubes.

If OTOH you have an interest to create a RESTful service that is discoverable, that doesn't require constant client changes, that offer a wider variety of resource representations, that need to stand the test of time, then use HATEOAS and a RESTful architectural style.

gRPC is yet another ... RPC.
Nothing good or bad about that. Just make sure you understand the consequences.
You're asking most of the right questions. But the real question you should be asking is this: what's the solution?

Slavery. Jim Crow. Subsidized discrimination. The war on drugs. Several generations of government coercion used for evil. Peter Temin is advocating to fix the problem with more coercion.

Am I supposed to believe that we've somehow evolved past prejudice? That prejudiced people won't gain influential office and use Temin's prescriptions to target those they hate? Sounds like more of the same.

Let's break the wheel and give everyone the same opportunity.
I think most countries are blown away by America's portions. They are just insanely huge some times. They are so big, even some places that do "small plates" or tapas are still too big.
All Chinese regions have their own variation of the major Chinese cuisines.

You can think of the different versions of it outside China as regional variations as well.
I get your criticism of China, but it was NOT China making the decision to for climate regulation on western firms but not on Chinese firms.

That honor falls on the climate conferences and our "scientific policy stance".

> where almost everyone runs out of food or line ups are multi-hour affairs.

Yeah, this seems to be getting more common (maybe because the people running the festivals make a nice profit?).

I was at a hot wings festival recently. In a two-hour line for 4 wings. Then they ran out of wings, beer, and all liquids, including water. It ended up being ~$10/wing, 1 wing/hour.
I feel exactly the same way about systemd as you seem to feel about docker.
Really liked the idea. Good one.
One thought: I'd think creating a similar solution would make an amazing semester course for University students.

Maybe you package stuff up nicely and give it away as a course, or try and sell the plans as a course to one of the coding schools or large Education companies?
That doesn't take away from the amazing reporting that Vice does.
I don't hate this idea. Leave the minimum wage alone, let inflation make it meaningless, and beef up the EITC.
I tend to rotate through. The Economist is excellent, but gets a little boring. If you read it for a year, you basically know exactly what they will say about everything for the next 2-4 years. :) Foreign Affairs is worth checking out if you like the economist. There's a few other journal-like magazines in big bookstores worth checking out.

NYT is like NPR -- high quality reporting, but they beat you over the head with a stick to get across whatever broader point they have. It gets a little ponderous. The secret of the NYT is that you escape that crap by turning the page... the features are a treasure. I've been hooked to Science Times since second grade. They have stuff on art, books, etc... that's why you subscribe. The news is a commodity.
With regards to your point B, I'm happy to remove my shoes if it reduces my chances of being killed in a terror attack from (making up numbers) 1/1M to 1/1.05M. It's just that it's unclear whether the TSA's screening methods are effective, and/or optimally-effective, and/or optimally-effective while minimizing passenger inconvenience. (They're probably at least somewhat effective, at least as a psychological deterrent, seeing as there hasn't been a successful terror attack on a US airplane since 9/11).
"Compared to the responses at Reddit, Quora and other places the diversity of HN is astounding."

I love HN and have been using for a really long time, but I joined Reddit relatively recently because I found HN to be rather limiting in comparison.

HN certainly can't be accused of being one-note or even two-note anymore, as it could when it first started. It's definitely been growing in diversity of stories as well as users, but it's still mostly about technology and startups. There are certainly articles about all sorts of topics discussed here, but those discussions tend to be relatively short-lived (maybe one or two days max) and then HN moves on to something else.

Compare that to a subreddit like /r/bodyweightfitness[1], where it's basically non-stop talk about the subject day after day after day, and the discussions tend to be pretty high quality ones (certainly at HN level, on this particular subject). HN might see a post about fitness ever now and then, but, again, the discussion will die in one or two days, and the subject does not get explored in anywhere near as much depth as on that subreddit.

That's just one subreddit, and there are thousands more, on virtually every conceivable subject. Not all of them are of high quality, the reddit front page and enormously popular subreddits tend to be garbage, and the overwhelming majority of subreddits are dead, but there are certainly enough quality subreddits to keep my interest and even to entice me from HN.

HN does scratch some itches for me, but not nearly as many as Reddit does. That said, I'm not ditching HN for Reddit, but I am always looking out for other communities with high quality discussions on the subjects I'm interested in.

Apart from Reddit, there are also many specialty forums that have really high quality discussions on their specific subject. For example, the Muffwiggler forum[2], which is a huge forum dedicated to modular synthesizers. Everything conceivable in relation to synths is discussed there, with many subforums on specific manufacturers and subject. It's really active, and the discussions there are super informative. You're just not going to find that kind of depth on HN, or even a synth-specific subreddit.

There are many other great forums out there, too. This is far from a rare example. You do have to search them out, but they are plenty of them out there, on all sorts of subjects. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that HN quality discussion is actually not that rare. You just have to dig below the garbage surface of the internet and it's there.

It was about $100-200 for two tickets in my city the last time I was pricing them. (Price varies by show, age, and if you're buying tickets to multiple shows.)

I've tried the Nikes, but I prefer some of Merrell's running shoes. They keep changing models, so I can't give you a link to the exact ones I've bought, but [0] and [1] look similar. These are both zero-drop models, meaning the heel is no higher than the forefoot; they bend well under the ball of the foot; and the toe box is very wide and roomy.

TypeScript Progressive Web App Quickstart
Oh I hadn't heard of that. As a chef I'm definitely going to do some research on that! Any particular favourites?
A wire takes place in real time, whereas an ACH goes into a batch which is cleared later, like a paper check.

If you want the funds transferred instantly and with certainty, use a wire and pay the fee for the real-time service.

If not, use an ACH (cheap or free). But be aware the funds won't show up for a day or two. And possibly never, if, for example, the sender's account has insufficient funds or doesn't exist.
That's the problem, I wad through enough bureaucracy when dealing with government institutions in my day job. I just don't have the time, patience, nor desire to read through pages-worth of rules and policies and correspond with a string of people who may or may not be willing to help, just to have my edit persist. I gain nothing either way.

Ah, thanks for that link. That should be distributed again. Net neutrality at much more risk today than it was 3 years ago when that video was published
The cuisine is called Indo-Chinese food...it's a fusion of Chinese dishes with Indian spices and vis-versa. It has come about because "close" border between China and India (in the north east)

It is similar to the term Tex-Mex which a fusion of Mexican food with American tastes
To be fair, groups on both sides of politics do this all the time, in fact change.org campaigns basically send a million copies of the same e-mail (with only the sender's name changed) to "targets" and we don't seem to think there's anything wrong with that. I've seen many many LGBT campaigns targeting conservative websites and facebook pages with copy-and-paste content as well.

Also, calling this "brigading" is a bit of a reach, given it seems that real unpaid people are copying and pasting the comments in their own names. But then again, if these people were pro-neutrality, Vice would probably be calling it a "grassroots internet campaign".

What's good for the goose...
Looks dead. No commits for almost 2 years.
It's amazing to me how lock step the conservatives are on the ground.

I grew up in a rural area and worked for farmers as a teenager. Many folks were very baptist or evangelical (my family were transplants... I was called a papist idolator in high school once) definitely right wing. There was a smaller, older, and shrinking group that I would call "new deal" country people.

All of these folks were principled people who distrusted big business as much or more than big government. Nobody liked seed patents or consolidating tractor or feed companies. None of these folks I knew would be signing petitions supporting the phone company!?!

Wtf is happening?
None of that is correct. 'Series' or 'parallel' are the wrong way to think about things. If you buy 100 shares of AAPL and then you buy a put on SPY, that position is objectively lower risk than the unhedged AAPL position. Your point about counterparties is irrelevant, as I didn't claim that a hedge causes risk to go to zero - merely that it reduces it. It is possible for two risky things to cancel one another (or some components of one another, as in the AAPL/SPY example, the SPY put hedges AAPL's beta).

9000 euros is a large sum for countries where an average monthly salary can be around 500 euro or less. Only wealthy families (whose kids don't really need German education) would afford that.
Given the shitposting on /r/wallstreetbets I'm going to say you have a decent chance of being correct.
I feel like trinidad also has an indo chinese feel to their food. I think they had immigrants from both countries. Absolutely awesome food.

Not to sound like a judgmental and experienced jerk back but how many container orchestration systems have you built and run in production? Since I have first hand experience in building, hacking, and working around all the limitation of a few such systems deployed into production environments I think I know all there is to know about RancherOS.

By all means continue to run RancherOS and let me know how that goes when you're managing a few hundred to maybe upwards of a thousand VMs and then layering a container orchestration system with the underlying VMs coming and going on an on-demand basis. I remember thinking "I really wish I had more of this docker stuff in the OS itself. Because dealing with all the caching, volume mounting, and instability in userspace is so much fun".

I'll await your report because clearly my experience with these systems and all the ways they fail is too combative for your taste. There are a few things they don't tell you on the brochure when you're drinking the kool-aid.
Advent of Learning About MD5 and OpenCL
Most congresspeople and some other political types have constituent management systems that handle this stuff. One system I evaluated would detect this kind of blather, and would rate lower when tallying constituent support for an issue. Paper letters got a bonus.

In the FCCs case, they don't really answer to anyone, so this sort of campaign may be more valuable, as it gives puppets like Chairman Pai something to demonstrate public support. Bureaucrats just need CYA.
You two are speaking past each other. CydeWes is using EV in the "first moment" sense. Amalcon is using EV in the "expected utility" sense. E.g. consider rock-paper-scissors. The expected utility of rock is 1/2. But since rock is represented non-numerically, each event has no first moment.
If only there was someplace a little lighter weight and more streamlined. Say someplace where you need only put a link to an existing blog post to increase its visibility.

AFAIK, the Google Wallet app doesn't, anymore, have any features that require or use NFC (tap-and-pay did, but that moved years ago to Android Pay.)

Plus, not only can you do everything "on desktop", you can do it on web generally; the browser version works great on phones.

Vice tells amazing stories, but not everything in those stories is factual and there is often significant embellishment. This is not obvious at all until they report on a topic you're very familiar with.

I'm a big fan... it's great entertainment.
