You don't want to burn and release, that's true, but you also don't want the plastic in the food chain. So you need some sort of way to compress and store the co2 until it can be sequestered.

Because new administration is very pro monopoly, and therefore they are scaling down anti-trust limitations. Net neutrality is just one of them. TL;DR: they pretend to be pro free market, but in essence they are against strong competition.

Also corruption. Monopolists pay them a lot, and play the dumb "don't regulate, the invisible hand of the market will fix all" card which simply doesn't apply in monopolized cases.

I wish I had much progress!

I looked at a pebble teardown, and saw that it didn't seem to involve very complex production strategies. From that I decided to try building a list of components! I know how to do some microcontroller programming so wasn't too worried about that part, but felt like getting an efficient screen was important.

I've had a hard time finding power efficient screens that I can purchase in very small quantites so I've been stuck there. I've been trawling around parts websites but I almost always end up on things like screens for RasPis.

EDIT: Got some luck on Alibaba searching for "sunlight readable". Going to contact some suppliers to see if I can get something
Okay I go ahead and say it: I still like Angular 1.x

I feel like there's a lot of hate towards Angular and much praise for React. Personally I don't get along with the syntax and just the readability of React code or rather the structure. But that may just be my lack of experience with it.

I understand that the DOM diffing in React is superior but.. is it really that important?
For me the two-way data binding of Angular takes away the headaches of doing updates with jQuery. Sure, I get that having to follow the "Angular" way and wrapping foreign libraries is overhead. But it still feels adequately simple to write applications with it.
Try changing the timescale to 3 months or so for react, you get a nearly perfect pulse wave with peaks on weekdays and valleys on the weekends.

The same happens with Javascript, Java and I guess most (popular) programming languages; it might be an imperfect indicator, but one that suggests people are actively searching during their working hours (which I don't think applies to the youtube channel).
I am a big fan of Matt Levine's recurring theme: "Private Markets are the new Public Markets" - https://www.bloomberg.com/view/contributors/ARbTQlRLRjE/matt... - many of his "people are worried about Unicorns" sections address this.

The core of his argument is that public markets come with regulations, which discourage IPOs, and that as long as investors are tolerant of companies staying private, they will. So, in this market (generally up over the last few years), people aren't worried about cashing out, so they let private companies stay private, and reap more of the theoretical rewards.
I do think people are not quite understanding that when I say "niche within a niche", I do that with the understanding that it does in fact exist. Had I meant to say "nobody", I would have said that. But it is a niche within a niche. STEM is certainly way to expansive; I'm STEM and I haven't had a use for a calculator since high schools were mandating them. It's certainly a niche within STEM, which is a niche. And the accountant's desks I've seen lately do not have calculators on them, and if they do, it's 4-function calcs.

Also, this is HN, so of course the people occupying that niche within a niche will pop up and say "But I use a physical calculator all the time!" That doesn't make me wrong, it just means that you're here. I'd also guess, with all due respect, because I know how this sort of thing goes, that at least some of the people who might claim they have a calculator they use all the time actually use it, say, every few months. Only a few people will seriously be using them all the time.

If you're planning to run on VMware, be prepared to handle rather dramatic system clock shifts. I've seen shifts of up to 5 minutes during heavy backup windows. Not all customers might be willing to have their nodes go down due to system clock / NTP issues.

Agreed. It's a very stupid name. It's memorable for all the wrong reasons: It detracts from the product, and takes attention away from the product to the product name that elicits a visceral disgust in a lot of people. The conversation then is about why the product is called that instead of the product's merits.

I have ported a MySQL-based ActiveRecord Rails app that was somewhat complicated to Postgres, and then on to CockroachDB. It works pretty well, so I'd give it a go. We're also committed to supporting ActiveRecord via the Postgres connector, so if you run into any bugs, we would do our best to fix them. I am personally invested in ActiveRecord support myself. At this point ORM support on CockroachDB is driven mostly by usage so please try it!

Your other questions are better answered on the blog post, but quickly:

* CockroachDB core comes with a `dump` command to backup your databases. CockroachDB Enterprise has blazingly fast _incremental_ cloud backup and restore, the kind that you might want for a very large deployment.

* Replication is managed under the hood by sharding the data into many ranges that are each 64mb in size. Each range is replicated using Raft, and if a node goes down, the other replicas scattered across the cluster seamlessly take over and upreplicate a new replica to "heal" the cluster.

* The horizontal scaling is indeed plug and play - just add more nodes to the cluster and they'll automatically rebalance replicas across the cluster with no downtime and no additional configuration.

I'm not clear what you mean by "reused what I saw in OSM". You probably can get by with comparing google maps to OSM, but if there is any difference you need to physically go to the error location yourself and see what is really there.

It is common for map makers to intentionally put a few errors on their maps, if those errors appear in someone else's map that is proof of a copyright violation. The location and names of roads is a fact that cannot by copyrighted, but errors are a creative work that is subject to copyright. I first heard about this in the 1980's when map meant paper, I suspect google is doing the same thing in some form.

So basically, you're saying that since they (according to you) weren't plastering news about their P2P design across all their marketing (as if most people would even be able to understand that, from a marketing perspective), and DESPITE the fact that it was well-known enough for academic papers in 2011 to be written on the design (http://pansentient.com/2011/04/spotify-technology-some-stats...), that's why you'll never return to them, even though they've since entirely removed that functionality? Because you never heard of that part of the design until you detected it on your own network?

This isn't someone "robbing your bandwidth" IMHO, I'm not for example angry when I torrent something open-source and have it set to reupload 2x what I downloaded... In fact here's Netflix debating going to a P2P design in 2014: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2014/04/netfl...

If I torrented for a year ("as a downloader") without realizing how it worked, and then found out it was uploading what I already downloaded, would I have the right to be indignant about my own ignorance?

That said, a lot of new endeavours (especially on the Internet) have questionable legality when they first emerge (mp3 scene, bitcoin, digital content distribution in general, etc) and then acquire legitimacy later on. It's fine (... I guess?) to feel unlimited righteous indignation about a company (I feel that way about Microsoft, actually), but it's not fine IMHO if it's not based on reality.
The other nice thing about emulation is that you get to use modern IO hardware, particularly keyboards. I can imagine having fun programming on a Commodore 64; I have a much harder time imagining having fun doing it with an actual Commodore 64. The keyboards were not all that great by modern standards when they were brand new, don't get better with age, and certainly don't get better in a student lab environment :)
Based on my experiences, it's less likely "calculator class" and more likely "integrals are done by pressing shift+ln(), then right arrow to enter the limits, then comma followed by the variable" (this is an example not following any real calculator) during calculus. So rather than teaching the topic fully and then letting students figure out how to aid themselves with calculators or computers, they teach how to do the technique on the dominant calculator. So if you're not inclined to read manuals or troubleshoot or think about what you're doing, having a Casio instead of a TI would be big trouble.

Yep, we've also had our share of troubles with noisy clock on cloud environments, so that's something we're very aware of. Further down the road, we're considering a "clockless" mode, which of course isn't clockless, but depends less on the offset threshold: https://github.com/cockroachdb/cockroach/issues/14093

That said, even today, configuring a cluster with a fairly high maximum clock offset is feasible for many workloads.

I really don't know. This is something that confuses me about the finance industry in general. Perhaps it's the percentage fee structure on large deals that ends up routing a lot of capital towards finance firms. They spend it frivolously on offices and people.
We move in anyway. We cram into existing bedrooms, increasing the number of incomes needed to afford a single unit. We mega-commute, taking up resources like train seats and roadway space for ridiculous lengths of time, consuming energy and releasing pollutants along the way. We crowd out parking, particularly when the room for us is far from transit and walkable areas. People we displace become desperate, which has public health and crime effects, or they move away, diminishing the character that made the place desirable. We live in the suburbs, depriving insolvent city governments of needed tax revenue.

You can't stop us from moving in. Controls on internal migration in the United States are unconstitutional. The best you can do is allocate new units in proportion to new residents so that we don't wreck the existing market.

Raspberry Pi CharLCD Library – Now with I²C Support
Basically: Destroying the wealth everybody can have for free, like beauty, truth and simple contentment, to sell cheap thrills that never quite satisfy. I don't care how cliché that sounds, I'm tired of how well that cliché holds up in the reality I see.

And yes, I also think that it's ultimately a net negative, I'm not even sure the people who get wealthier and more powerful actually get wealthier and more powerful. Their thrills don't seem to last either, they kind of seem to get smaller, and apart from the destruction of the world around us basically everybody of us engages in and suffers from, some of them them also have a vastly bigger inner gulf to cross. I.e. to enjoy a sunset someone with a clean conscience only has to have the time and the sunset, but people with corpses in the basement still have to dig out from under those corpses and then get up the stairs and out the front door. There's a lot of shrillness these days, and I think exactly for that reason; people with mouths full of dirt screaming about how they wouldn't want to see a sunset anyway, how only losers would enjoy those more than the cold stone they're stuck under. A whole lot of posing going on.

FWIW, I don't think any of us are exempt, I surely am not. Yeah I didn't start a war of aggression yet, and so on, but I hurt others for various dumb reasons, and often failed to even try to make up for it for even dumber or no reasons. It's a matter of degree though, and I would not want to swap with people in even deeper shit.

So check on construction, when doing operations with other unchecked floats, and when dividing. Any other operations that could produce a NaN?

Wait, are +-Inf considered unordered? Edit: Nope. inf == inf, so you should only have to worry about NaN. https://is.gd/Xi5jdr
Thanks!

Yes, probably doing this incrementally (or at least as separately from "user land" as possible) would have been much better.

Though, this gives full program optimization via jlink, and probably modularizing rt.jar would have needed serious platform/syntax changes anyway.

Because it works and it works great. It's fast and it never crashed on me. Give me an equivalent opensource editor that works and looks like Sublime and I'll use it. No, Atom and VS Code don't cut it. They're slow, they choke on big files and eat up hundreds of megabytes of RAM. I don't need or use plugins, so I don't care if it's extensible in <insert trendy language here>.

Vim is also nice but I only use it for remote console work. It doesn't have the nice features that Subline has (PCRE, select and Ctrl+D editing) or they're clunky.

Serum is the easiest synth I have ever used. There are a lot of controls, but they all make sense. And if one is just starting out, they can ignore most of the controls and focus on just the basics: Waveform, envelop, filter. Then move to modulation starting with LFOs. (Modulation is where Serum really shines. It is literally drag-and-drop. Compared to the modulation matrices that many synths use, it's a cake walk.)

If you think Serum look complex, take a look at Zebra 2.
This seems like the sort of behavior which can be disincentivized with steep fines. You, a developer, built a large building not to code?

>I would have been inclined to simply accept this paper with minor revisions so that the PI did not have any impression I was being unreasonable.

The impression I get is that this article is about the fact that despite your connections with the author and team, various pressures of the review process (and probably timelines) prevented you from saying to the principle author in private, "Hey buddy, your work looks promising, but your graduate student really needs an editor."

I find that review of the form "this is good, but needs cleanup" is the easiest to give or to receive in the type of reviews I participate in. If you can't even attach your name to that, I'm inclined to believe there are problems with the system that anonymity alone doesn't solve.
Peer review, as it is known today, only took off at a large scale with the invention of the photocopier.
