Linux was developed with personal computers and servers in mind. Not mobile phones. The world really needs a bottom up mobile first operating system IMO. iOS is the closest to this right now, but at the end of the day it's still just Darwin.
You are still looking at years in prison for theft. I'm not sure if 20 years in prison is really that much more of a deterrent than 5 years.
The Ayn Rand I know would throw all of our modern "capitalists" in prison for their theft, deceit, and immoral desire for the unearned. Best not to get your opinions second or third hand from the deliberately dishonest.

These elective surgeries have no relation to what is typically referred to as FGM, but perhaps I should have been more clear.

I was referring to Types I-III as described here:

http://www.endfgm.eu/female-genital-mutilation/what-is-fgm/

Those are very clearly wrong, with no redeeming value and cause a great deal of harm to the woman, beyond any subjectivity. Nobody is signing up to have this done to them for aesthetic reasons. Compared to this, circumcision is only low-moderately invasive and damaging. If you are going to argue against circumcision, do so on its own merits, not by comparing it to something far worse.

> Sadly, most of the information about elm on the internet is badly out of date.* The program is still being slowly developed, and the release (March 24, 1999) of elm 2.5 is promising.

Awesome.
A major problem in any demographics research is data coding. For health-related demographics, HIPPA starts playing in.

Because mailing address is almost always provided in a healthcare setting, ZIP Code data are present in records. Similarly for coronor or death reports. Other alternatives, say, census block number, exist, but would have to be coded into the data. If you're already working with ZIP rollup data, you simply cannot recode for finer-grained analysis.

The most obvious data target would be the ZIP+4 encoding, though here in a provider context you'd likely run into HIPPA concerns (I've not worked in the field for some years). For death reports, that's obviated, so access to county death records at household detail would be an option, but you'd need to acquire data across all (or some sampling of) the 3,144 counties in the US.

Some of that data may be available in electronic form, but I'd suspect some level of fieldwork might still be required.
A few externalities do happen from cars on the road. Oil leaks are one. Aerosol pollution (black carbon type) from wearing down tires on the road. Roadkill impact on wildlife.

But they're dwarfed by non-environmental factors like road wear-and-tear, and accidents, which are covered by other taxes and insurance.
Benchmarking IP and Unix domain sockets (for real, and under Docker)
I don't see why you think that's the case. It's pretty typical language in an offer letter in California and is even specifically called out as legit in the part of the California code that prohibits non-competes.

And Waymo seems pretty pissed over a violation of this term. The theft of secrets issue was just the trigger.
I don't know about radioactive waste, but surely allowing untrusted user input into /dev is unrealistically sloppy. (Famous last words?)

I agree that having this as a bash feature versus just using nc doesn't seem to buy much. But I think having these in the actual file system is useful. So why not do both: expunge them from bash, and get them into /dev (or maybe /net, or wherever they belong).
> Most traditional SQL databases are I/O-bound, meaning that the cost of pulling index pages from disk into memory overwhelms everything else, and adding more CPU doesn't do much good.

A traditional database is somewhat tied to a disk for persistence, particularly if it is transactional, but this is more of a top fuel dragster with a mile to run.

The first assumption is that you can fit the current working set into memory - this might not be a raw stream of data, but perhaps hundreds of data-points per cellphone tower which probably occupies around 60-100Gb.

Something like Postgres would be stuck on a single core at this point mostly waiting on memory bandwidth (with associated NUMA bandwidth issues of picking 1 core).

Being able to use the memory bandwidth of the GPUs, plus being forced to write code which is entirely branch independent (CPUs are good, but they still have silicon to expect branches), gives you a massive scan speedup once your data fits within the scale-up single node situation.

If you're willing to shard out your data across multiple machines and never do joins across the shards, you can get distributed scans.

This is never going to be your primary system of record, but just something that can hold a cube/matrix and slice/dice through it faster than a CPU based system can.

If you replace the "GPU and open-source" with "custom silicon and proprietary", you might be looking at something which is very much like Netezza.
Large content providers, for one.

Basically, any business that uses the internet as a primary tool could spend to boost their priority with ISPs. That benefits basically any big company while screwing us because we can't choose a different ISP.
>Tesla is planning LA -> NY fully autonomic drive by end of this year.

But that's not really a very impressive feat compared to 3-5 days of non-stop driving in NYC. I mean who cares if it can go cross-country? I want it to take me from my apartment to the office to the grocery store to Target out to dinner and then back home again.

Hundreds and hundreds (probably >1,000 even) of those cross-country miles are going to be desolate and essentially carless.
The best thing you can do to avoid getting sweaty is use either a basket or pannier bags to carry your stuff.
Whether you view the drugs, and their long-term use, as a benefit, or not, here's how I see it. The pharmaceutical companies have these drugs approved. And they are being prescribed and used, long-term.

So, what's the benefit for them in doing longitudinal studies? What's the upside, versus the potential downside of discovering negative effects?

If you want longitudinal studies, you're going to have to look outside the industry.

An essential reason we need to keep government research around and well-funded.
These are the two sources of confusion, and they are completely valid. Neither you "liking" your Mac Pro, nor it being "just a computer" address these completely valid concerns.

1.) Why is Apple not keeping this system in line with the state of technology? If it's targeted at professionals, why have they left their only option in that department 5 years behind in technology?

2.) Are they planning on making the next iteration upgradeable? For some time now, Apple has used third party silicon, interchangeable with that of any other system. Intel, AMD, nVidia. Professionals on any other platform can spend a couple hundred bucks and modernize their computer for 2-3 years. Isn't it therefore possible that the lack of sales in Mac Pro division aren't because of lack of interest or a small professional market, but because of a bad idea to make a proprietary desktop tower which locks down upgradeability?
Getting the money into a destination country is only the first part of capital flight, the other half is making reasonably good and relatively liquid investments with it. Therefore, housing in Yellowknife is probably out. Generally speaking, the goods in which one invests in as capital flight tend to be either a good investment (big city real estate), or easily concealed and transported (jewelry, precious metals).

And if the English-speaking westernized kids and grandkids can get things like tuition and medical care out of it, that's certainly a nice bonus.

I lived for many years in a city that saw a truly massive influx of investments driven almost entirely by capital flight, predominantly from Iran and China, and those buyers were all too happy to buy a house, never move into it, eventually send their kids over for an education, bring the kids back home, sell the housing in US Dollars and keep those funds there. (Or, rent it out and deposit the funds into a US account.)

It's also worth noting that seasoning requirements for funds contributed to a mortgage don't apply when the purchase happens in cash. The people who play at the level required to make capital flight worthwhile aren't near the center of the bell curve.

Immigration ≠ capital flight.
Cool initiative. I've yet to find a reason to switch from Transit to Citymapper in NYC, but it's always exciting to see pure tech companies (like Snapchat) try their hand at physical products.

The Citymapper folks are obviously very smart and I am stoked to see how this pilot project works out!
Shouldn't they have some form of API that allows you to integrate it onto a webpage?
YouTube specifically didn't like dealing with copyright complaints from video game makers. People posting game streams got sick of their videos being taken down from YouTube, and moved to Twitch. I don't see food or cosmetics having similar pain points on the platform that would make room for a competitor.
This is quite cool. I'm curious though what the monetization strategy is now. After all they're a for-profit company that has taken a lot of VC.

Sure, they could sell integration and maintenance services on top but services are typically much harder to scale than software -- not quite what gets investors excited.
Calmm-js is one of these:

Uber loses money at that price.

Uber doesn't "scale", there is no economies of scale that kick in anywhere in their business model.
Completely disagree: I eat a high-fat (~70% of calories from fat) and lots of protein diet (I'm about 12% bodyfat).

Bacon* and cheese and sour cream are the healthy parts of that meal, the potato is the "empty" thing by far, and the thing that will provide the highest glycemic load of those ingredients, spiking insulin.

(note that I have no idea what bacon bits are, or if they're even pork meat)

Which wasn't even a Mac Pro. Interesting.
Elm is definitely in my future - in fact, many of the ML based languages are as well: Purescript, Haskell, F#, ReasonML, etc. Elm will be and is the gateway to all of that because it gives you only 1 path to traverse and tries to set up all the initial sign posts along the way.
MRI feedback gives powerful technique to manage our minds
There was much more involved in the election than healthcare alone. There were cultural concerns(people in big cities worry about very different things than the rest of the country), economic concerns(outsourcing and illegal immigration have brought down wages for the lower and middle classes) and even democratic concerns(the DNC suppressed Sanders from being the Democratic candidate). Those are all legitimate concerns, and on top of that you've got to consider gerrymandering and the emotional aspect of voting that isn't rational. Trump recognized a large part of the country that wasn't acknowledged by Hillary, and that boosted the Republican party as a whole.

5-10 minutes seems like enough time to do a full system dump. And definitely enough time to install some malware. Are there any known rootkits or malware for iPhones that can survive a system wipe?
places i usually already have in mind, i usually get my flights on skyscanner but after that things get complicated, im known as the organised one of the group so i usually set everything out.

i start off researching the city as fully as i can, check out all the usual places like trip advisor but often hitting up the reddit for whichever city you are visiting can offer some really interesting possibilities, its also great for finding out about music events that may otherwise be hard to find out about.

after that i split the trip up, i never stay at a single hotel the whole trip, ill pick a few in different areas of the city where there are different things to do, it makes you explore the city a bit more. i dont do airbnb or hostels but im not above guest houses or low end hotels.

i dont stop there though, once hotels are booked ill still keep checking hotel sites at least a few times a week to see if any deals for better places come up, if they do i cancel the old and rebook. it pays not to have too rigid a schedule though as things dont always go quite as you plan them to

i dont write any of this down though, i generally just memorise it all (ive usually spent so long researching it that its burned into my brain!) as long as i have google maps for navigation im set (i never travel without a data connection these days)

of course this method only really works if youre visiting big cities, and if im honest its a while since ive done any that werent in japan (but if youve been there you probably understand why that is, and if you havent then its time to start planning a trip!) next month it all begins again for me as ill be booking my flights to head back to the land of the rising sun in november
I was asking about standards for Web-based capabilities, delegated authentication, and public key tokens; not the individual message authentication or (a)symmetric encryption components.

Echoing tptacek's comment above: the problems with using those individual pieces is in the joinery - combining them in ways that are broken.
There are huge short vs long term questions when it comes to profit. So, they might be maximizing profit over the next 3-5 years and I am very much an iPad and iPhone customer, but that does not mean their PRO line is optimized for long term profit.

First, everyone's depression is specifically their own. While there are groups of people who react similar to each other, that doesn't at all negate the experience of other different groups and their reactions.

I take an SSRI. It's worked well for me. If the cause of my depression is a defect in the serotonin path, then I see no reason why I, with that particular problem, should wean myself off my SSRI; I don't think SSRIs repair the serotonin path, they just mitigate the defect (production or transmission).

If I had a defective leg, with no hope of repair or regeneration, I wouldn't try to wean myself off my brace.

It would help, but you don't have to....more and more people are treating YouTube like TV - I watch on my TV via Chromecast, laying down on the couch, if a commercial comes on, I'm not getting up to skip it, first because I'm too lazy, and second because a 30 second commercial now and then seems perfectly reasonable compared to the alternative.

> America's economic growth has peaked

I assume you mean, the size of the economy has peaked. The rate of growth was never thought to be increasing (i.e., it didn't grow 4% one year, 4.1% the next, etc.).

This question is answered by well-known data, GDP growth. That popular number represents, effectively, the increase in the economy's size every year. The U.S. economy has grown and continues to grow every year since 1950, with the only exception being 2008, the worst year of the Great Recession.

I suspect the author was being exact and referring to the product just called 'MacBook', rather than referring vaguely to a MacBook Air.

(I can't back that up, except to note that Apple fans are usually fairly scrupulous about referring to their MacBook Pro, iPad Air, iPhone 6S etc specifically rather than lumping them together).

In any case the current MacBook is quite similar to the MacBook Air and the rest of your comment probably stands.
Indeed, however, consider that servers can and do limit which TLS versions and cipher suites they accept.
Air source heat pumps have become much more efficient at lower temperatures than they used to be. The best units from Mitsubishi, Fujitsu, Gree, et al, put out their nameplate rating down to -13 to -20F, and continue to produce >50% of their output at COP > 1 below -30F. For new construction, or if you need to replace your current boiler/furnace for some reason, heat pumps always beat gas in levelized cost unless gas is extremely cheap compared to electricity in your area.

> unless you really like AC

Given changes in climate as well as obesity rates, more and more people will really like AC as time goes on, even in the coldest places.
No answer to your question, but... I would totally buy a capital appreciation stock, depending on how the fiscal details are worked out.

If I buy US stocks, I get taxed 15% US witholding tax on the dividends, then 30% Belgian withholding tax, leaving me with 59.5% net after dividend taxation. But if the share appreciates, I pay zero capital gains tax when I sell.

OK, I get that this was not the point of the operation, but it would definitely be a side benefit. Lots of Belgians buying Irish registered ETFs for similar fiscal reasons...

I couldn't help but notice that the top three counties (Summit, Pitkin, and Eagle counties in CO) are largely empty space with some of the country's best ski resorts. I suspect that the life expectancy there may largely be driven by fit retirees who move there.
Awesome job to everyone involved in this - SUPER excited for this release.
I looked at the project and I think the issue here is unrealistic expectations.

I think you're doing pretty good in terms of attracting people to your project but, to use startup terms, there is no project-market fit.

It's a tool for people who can write their own recipes and are comfortable running a unix service.

There's a very small number of people who are even capable of using such tool.

On top of that, the value is too low. I'm capable of setting this up but I don't care enough about being e-mailed about Github API release notification (or other scenarios in your docs) to go through the hassle.

As far as constructive feedback goes. If you want to make your project more useful:

* focus on recipes. Each new recipe is potentially additional marketing. Make recipes more prominent in your docs

* make a publicly available instance where people can create accounts and use it without self-hosting. Maybe there's even a business there

* more notification options (Slack seems like a no-brainer). Or even turn it into IFTTT-like system

* keep writing more posts, blogging, using twitter, posting to HN etc. Those are valid marketing tools, just don't expect miracles.

I would still not get your hopes up. You might end up doing a lot of work and still not have a product-market fit.

You picked two articles that fit your worldview, and ignored all the critique around them. That's not objective science.

Also, even the first one of the articles you quoted clearly says in the conclusion that there is an effect to antidepressants.

Here is one of the articles the critique of the critique you mentioned: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/10/opinion/sunday/10antidepre...
In 2016, Australia held its first online-first national census. Unsurprisingly it was a complete disaster, and the government told us the system was the victim of a DDoS attack right around dinner time for the east coast. They also told us they expected around 10 million participants and that during capacity planning they took the expected 1 million submissions per hour and doubled it to be safe, i.e. that a bunch of statisticians thought that 10 million people would form a uniform distribution over a day rather than spiking when they get home from work.
The toy unboxing channels exist entirely because they are so effective for attracting advertisers. Those weird 'Spiderman vs. pregnant Elsa' style videos are so popular for the same reason. Kids are perhaps the most valuable demographic for Youtube.

All in all I get the impression that Youtube had difficulty commanding the kind of money that TV advertisements generate, even before the recent ad crisis.
