A related annoyance is that when you write a for-loop in a Makefile, every iteration gets run even if one of them fails, due to how the shell calculates exit codes of for-loops.

So most of the time you should do "set -e; for XXX". Otherwise your Makefile loops will "succeed" incorrectly.
Surely you have an email agent to deal with that?
>Seriously it is time for a citizens revolution. We need to take the country back from these idiots.

Couldn't agree more. I've yet to meet a single fellow Aussie that has anything but disdain for politicians from any party. Labor, Liberal, Greens, One Nation doesn't seem to matter, they're all a pack of self serving con artists, and unless the major political parties take a serious look at themselves over the next few years, this is exactly what they're going to be dealing with. Especially as Millennials take their first steps into adulthood in a country that does nothing but tread on them and dismiss them as nothing but avocado loving morons that don't know how to make it in "the real world".
Besides games, there is potential to run real-world simulations. If you can describe the behaviour of a single agent, you can accurately predict how a large number of such agents, e.g. humans, would act given an environment, say a city. Their blog [0] is showing a few such examples, incl. a simulation of the internet [1].

Making it really easy to develop such simulations could open this tech up for people who have applications for it but can't afford to build this kind of thing from scratch as the companies building things like Second Life.

16 bit FP operations seem to be more than enough for most networks - in fact for inference, google claims in their TPU paper that most network parameters can be quantized down to 8 integer bits!

There is also some work on pure binary networks, xnornet and binarynet. Low precision doesn't seem to effect these networks as long as they are trained with binary weights in the first place.

>The government who changed away from FTTP is the more conservative (and pro small government) of the two major parties.

There is no Australian political party with any momentum that is pro-small government. The Liberals just like making themselves and their friends rich, but they don't have any strong ideological backing. Especially considering 90% of Aussies are pretty content with the level of government involvement in stuff that would send shivers down the spines of most yanks.

There's one more component of self-compassion helping with procastination.
Procrastination is mostly caused by the fear of failure, - once we feel how serious the situation is, the monkey in us can't stand the tension and escapes into dark playground of denial and guilty pleasures.
TFA mentions how self compassion decreases fear of failure, thus removing the main trigger of procrastination cycle.
They were discussing this on BBC Today programme this morning. Apparently, it can be used to in fields like biology, economics, geography, where you want to see a model play out.

Of course, whether it will be good enough that researchers will want to pay for it is another matter.
Very long, but definitely worth the read whether you are dabbling with these thoughts or not.

Thanks for sharing your opinion.

The earnest responses you've received are fairly representative of commonly expressed opinions in Australia. I don't believe it's the majority view, but certainly at large minority at least - including the Prime Minister it appears.

The further context is that cartoon was printed in The Australian, which is basically a Murdoch tabloid but masquerades as the paper of note in Australia. The cartoon in particular was drawn in response to a "Four Corners" (TV) report on the treatment/abuse of children at the Northern Territory's Don Dale detention centre, many of whom were Indigenous.

I think it appeals to businesses where they can simply roll the lease over to a new car every the years, so it's basically just a cheap long-term rental. If you're happy to drive a 5+ year old car it makes far more sense to just buy it, pay it off and keep it.

There is futures module for Python 2.7 on PyPI.

In simple cases, you could use multiprocessing.Pool():

results = pool.map(processfile, getpaths())

There is also ThreadPool. There are known issues with multiprocessing especially on Python 2.7 e.g., Ctrl+C handling.

Though you don't need threading to manage concurrent subprocesses or IO (Gevent, Twisted or curio if you use Python 3).
I'd much rather have 200 lines of bash than the 300-400 lines of python to replace it.

I have recently rewritten a lot of Python and Perl (over 10kLOC) to a small collectiom of 10-ish bash scripts that weigh in at about 700LOC total. There are some tasks where Bash is the only appropriate tool.

Much simpler code, much easier to read, and a lot faster too.
I think the SV VC scene is as nutty as anybody, but skill and gambling are most definitely not mutually exclusive. It's not analogous to a lottery, it's more like professional gamblers playing blackjack in Vegas.

"Your photos are great! You must have a good camera."
Well, technically, everything that you have (and can provide as "proof") is susceptible to being interpreted as "something you know". If I know enough about that thing that you have, I can probably manufacture a good-enough replica that I can provide as "proof of ownership".

Think of the physical one-time tokens: If I know the data stored on it, I can replicate them too. So, are they "something you have", or "something you know"? The reason why they're "something you have" is that it's easier to have the physical ownership of the device, than to know they "secret" of the device. But, the same is true about Google Authenticator! In that respect, Google Authenticator can be, indeed, interpreted as "something you have".

I have some more posts here, and also refer to the site a lot.

> A site called 'facts' showing a doctor selling books

I think the name of the site is a pun on the label that provides some info on the macros of many packaged food products. Afaik that label is titles "nutritionfacts" in the states.

The book he sells is great. Most (I guess all) of the info is also available for free on the website. And he donates the proceeds of the book. I'm also wary of doctors selling stuff (and pharma for that matter), but this guys seems not to be getting excessively rich on this. He seems intrinsically motivated.

> A site about nutrition focusing almost entirely on veganism

It focuses on evidence based nutrition. The doctor and his team claim to have evidence that a "whole plant food" diet is superior when it comes to preventing/reverting some diseases that are the leading killers/disablers in the western world.

> A doctor who seems to push a vegan agenda and has a sort of cult following in the vegan community

There's a list of prominent doctors that come to the same conclusions. Sure vegans feel at home with this narrative. But that should not make it less valuable information.

> Cherry picking sources. It's quite obvious from reading some of the articles, and while I don't doubt veganism is good for you, it makes me doubt the site's credibility even more.

That he (and others in this "nutrition against disease" movement) is cherry picking is often said. I believe it is hard to prove or disprove. And there is a lot of evidence that pharma is also guilty for cherry picking and manipulation. So it comes down to us having to make a choice ourselves. Who do you trust? Doctors/pharma selling chemicals without any consideration of diet, or doctors telling you to fix your diet to something "whole plant based" before trying chemicals? This is the main question for me at least.
To be fair, you can cancel Netflix and then continue using it until the end of your current subscription period. I would have thought it would be illegal to withdraw the service early as punishment for cancelling.

Biometrics are in general a bad way to implement security. Finger prints and iris scans can easily be stolen many times by just browsing a person's Facebook profile photos. We have already started depending on these to allow access to bank accounts.

I live in India, and there are already companies with phones that have iris and fingerprint scanners to link with each individual's Aadhar ID and grant access to all government and financial services including bank accounts, and even online shopping [1]. Unlike regular credit card transactions, these are supposed to be authenticated, so you cannot ask for a chargeback. Data for 130 million Indian people including their Aadhaar numbers and bank details was recently leaked accidentally. [2] There is a big disaster here just waiting to happen.

As a french I strongly disagree that Netflix or Amazon provide a viewer friendly movie viewing experience. You are forced into a subscription that provides little to no value because their library is really small in France (for movies).

As for the regulations I agree that they are too strict for the digital age but not releasing in the theaters is a pretty bad solution IMO.

I think his point is: isn't that a bogus thing for Uber to claim? That it can't release documents because of someone else's fifth amendment privilege?

It's not like Uber is married to Levandowski and has spousal privilege against testifying against him (although Uber sure is acting like they're married!). Can't they simply release the documents because they choose to?

I don't see how Uber choosing to release documents that they have access to (which is not even testifying, by the way - it's just complying with discovery) can possibly violate someone else's fifth amendment rights against self-incrimination. Perhaps a lawyer could speculate on whether a claim like this can have any merit.

A faster alternative to courts is a good idea. However, the existing arbitration system is biased exceptionally heavy towards repeat customers (and that comes in addition to inherent bias of reality towards deeper pockets).

Unlike a judge, an arbiter who finds against a company will not get their repeat business; that's an inherent conflict of interest.

I agree, it is a similar situation in most European countries atm. However, the fact that the service is not great now should not be taken as an indication that the service cannot be great in the future.

If you look at the US market, both providers have significant amounts of content, which, it can be argued, provides a better viewing experience. The trend seems to be going away from traditional cinemas to streaming services. If this is the case Cannes may have just made itself irrelevant to this growing part of the market.

I would recommend looking at some of the more recent tech focussed ATV episodes. There is a lot more to SC than there is in Elite, which is not to detract from Elite at all. It is a different game and excels where it aims to.

The underlying theme though is that SC is built of very finite systems that all interact with eachother. When Chris Roberts talks about fidelity it is often misconstrued to be about graphical fidelity. But it is equally applicable to the systems fidelity. In theory, after you have placed a cargo crate of goods in the cargohold of your ship and taken off, a pirate could shoot out your generator, hop out of their seat and pick up a gun off their gun rack, EVA to your ship, enter through a hole blasted into your hull and grab the individual crates to move to their ship. Later the pirate will store the crates in their homestead on a planet nearby, or pawn the goods at a market. Meanwhile you are left to fix your generator and ponder deep space.

But the fact that you could steal the crate from a disabled ship isn't because they put in a crate stealing game mechanic . It's simply intrinsic in the way they are developing the item interaction system and physics systems in the game. That wasn't a great example but hopefully it conveys what I am trying to convey.

This comment is also an example of how No Mans Sky disappointed everyone. Community based hyperbole. But I used only current features or 3.0 features to make it up so here is hoping.

In the 2.5 Alpha you can already disable a generator, you can already EVA and board a ship. In 3.0 there will be planets, planet outposts and markets, cargo to steal and nefarious people to steal it.

How is bash faster than Python?
I'm going to borrow some of these for my emacs list :)
They only have to hit you once, and then put your finger on the button
If you're measuring code quality / maintainability by how many lines of code there are, you're doing it wrong. I'd much rather see 400 lines of well-structured python than 200 lines of tangled bash. For the rewrite you did, how much of the benefit was because it was rewritten, rather than being rewritten _in bash_?

I'd also go as far as saying that if you're using bash because it's faster than python, you're also using the wrong tool for the job.
