The question I ask everyone who highly recommends this lifestyle :)

I spent ~2 years as a completely untethered nomad, and love having my feet planted somewhere I love while I still travel+work 3+ weeks at a time regularly so so so much more.

Besides the means (financial) and freedom (remote-friendly employment/relationships) to do this, there are a lot of cultural/social aspects that influence the viability of the long-term nomadism.

1) White privilege: Are you white? Being a nomad is WAY nicer! People are nice and welcoming to you almost everywhere, and go out of their way to involve you in their local stuff, making life more interesting and fun. Also, everyone wants to bang you, if you're into that. Otherwise, get ready to lead a lonely life, struggling to build deeper connections, and having a hard time experiencing the "serendipity of traveling".

2) Your support network's relationship with this lifestyle: This is a romanticized lifestyle for the western world, whereas it's treated as a vagabond-like, evasion of responsibility in Asian culture. This can be draining if your family is mostly disparaging of your lifestyle choice (or others are of your parents for bringing you up wrong etc).

3) You always have a home when you want it: There is a place where you feel safe, you belong, you love and can easily go back to and stay whenever you want for however long you want to recharge in between. If you end up nomading to someplace that doesn't work for you, you can bail on short notice and re-plan. If something happens or if you need to just take a break from the nomadism, you know where to go. If you don't have this (you don't care for your hometown, or was in my case, you have/had legal visa complications preventing you from "calling where you wanted to stay home"), being a nomad can be stressful and uncertain.

As a brown entrepreneur raised in Asia who wanted to settle in the Bay, and chose the nomad life while waiting for my visa to come through, I learned the above the hard way.
As others mentioned, throttling your settings will show you that the differences actually aren't that negligible. With the Chrome devtools, throttling network connections to Regular 3G and CPU slowdown to 10X will give you a rough estimate of how mobile devices with flaky connection interact with these applications.

Another thing is that each of these implementations pre-cache most (if not all) of their static resources with a service worker -> and that's why repeat visits on each site is quite fast. Using incognito or clearing the site data and unregistering the service worker and then loading the site as a first-time visit under those throttled conditions will let you easily notice how much faster some of the implementations are then others (for example: Preact and Angular)
This is a scarily realistic prospect.
Take care about your own family and children. Do not harm others. It is that simple. If everyone would do that, we would be all better off.
Also, when I questioned the wisdom of putting it somewhere maximally inaccessible, I didn't necessarily mean they should have gone to the opposite extreme of putting it in the middle of a population center.

Nothing personal but this mode of argument seems both fallacious and unhelpful. I suggested an alternative (a somewhat accessible mountain cave) grounded in real-world experience (actual locations of military command centers). I don't understand why you chose to ignore one half of a short comment in order to produce a facile refutation of the other half.

Thanks Donald. Less regulation is sometimes better.
It's not about arming every airport. It's about giving the airports the right to clear the airspace around them.

I think we should stop thinking about drones as something new. For instance, in the context of airport safety, rogue drones are simply flying nuisance objects. Do airports have to deal with these on a daily basis? Yes! The airports have to deal with birds!

What do they do with birds? They trap them, shoot them, and often kill them (e.g. see http://www.theecologist.org/News/news_analysis/2520695/airpo...)
Arguably, if they have this right regarding wild geese, they should have the same right regarding drones (even more so: "killing" a drone does not pose a threat to the environment).

So, to answer your question: people who hunt down birds around the airports will also hunt down drones, if given the right.

You would know by the fact that you had not been previously notified of the authorized use of airspace, and it's within a certain altitude range of the airfield and surrounding space.

Certainly a lot better than just throwing up your hands and waiting for an A380 to go down because somebody had a bug in their flight controller.

It really is quite an annoying problem. Does anyone know why the owners of the site don't fix it? I feel like I could submit fixed CSS in a few hours.
I find your comment very interesting, because I view it somewhat the opposite. Basically, many take your statement just the way you ordered it:

#1 Take care about your own family and children
#2 Do not harm others

Then, it becomes very easy to cause harm to others and justify it through the idea that one's first priority is taking care of your own family and children and that outweighs the harm you are doing to others.

Which is just to say, it's not that simple.
Define a "drone". It's a word of limited utility these days, because it does not mean "autonomous aircraft" anymore, and gets used for anything that's R/C and flying.

My quadcopters don't even have GPS, for instance.
Unauthorized drones flying into controlled airspace represent a mortal threat; surely it justifies property damage, it probably would justify lethal force.
Is there a site somewhere that attempts to catalog

1) instances where the flight computer prevented an incident due to pilot error

2) instances where the flight computer caused an incident

I understand it's not always (if ever) so black & white, and I'm sure there's a better way to break things down. But it'd be interesting to read something that attempts to keep some kind of score.

> it's a clear violation of the actual law that gives the FAA it's powers and authority

Please cite the relevant law; few of us here are experts on the matter, and it's far from being clear that forcing people to register is a violation of anything.

I'd have to register an aircraft if I wanted to fly it in most cases, and I'd have to register myself (get a pilot's license) - so it is not clear that FAA's authority ends when the aircraft is small and its pilot is on the ground.
Does anyone know what would have happened if my laptop was encrypted with wannacry and my laptop hard drive was basically full?
OK, but highlighting the code correctly has essentially nothing to do with context free grammars.

This happens in Vim and Emacs with languages other than C and C++ -- here docs in shell, multiline strings in Python -- and Python does use a CFG, etc.

I agree it's annoying although I think most people view it as a minor thing. They stick with Vim and Emacs for other reasons.

I'm not sure anyone has based their language design around Vim/Emacs syntax highlighting, although ironically that is one of my criteria for language design. I was just confused by the advice to use a CFG, since it's not the relevant issue.

I would say the relevant issue is that your lexer shouldn't be too clever and have too many modes. And to avoid mixing languages in the same file, or have a very obvious lexical construct to mix languages.

The C preprocessor is an entirely separate language than C or C++, so that is the core of the issue in your example. Likewise, it is usually hard to highlight CSS and JavaScript embedded within HTML.
Hope he makes it but doesn't sound like it will be very fun.

I enjoyed watching a documentary ( "Maidentrip" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2555268 ) about a young girl that sailed around the world just for fun. She did it in an older boat with limited electronics on board and had fun and made frequent stops just to visit other cultures.

Contrasted with another young girl ( "Wildeyes" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1939787/ ) that did it for a record's sake, on a modern boat, with multiple sponsors, packed with electronics (all of which failed) and ultimately capsized in the Indian ocean.

And another good one was "Deep Water" ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460766/ ) where a man tried to win an "around the world" yacht race (for a business venture) but ultimately went insane and jumped overboard.

Landline phones had mics too :) How do we know that those could not be remotely activated? After all, we did not possess the same level of power to monitor the government back then. As noted somewhere above.

I personally think there is an age where people decide; everything that existed before now is useful and nice, and everything new is evil. Kind of a technological puberty.

I disagree. The reason I was surprised when I thought you were saying Oprah recommended it is that Oprah doesn't really recommend books like this. That's not unrelated to the fact that her audience would think "man, Oprah's book recs suck" if she kept recommending books too dense for her audience.
That was exactly the OP's point: that registration without any means to back it up (i.e. detect and stop unregistered aircraft) is useless.

it's easy argue this one from emotion. some thoughts anyway:
- i'm all for punishing actual child abusers
- look at how many 17 year olds get criminal records or jail for sexting, which the law defines as "child porn"
- "legal" and "allowed" have distinct definitions. society can affect behavior without the behavior being "illegal". try being gay in a religious fundamentalist community
- my ultimate solution would be, educate every child and adult in the world, to the point where every child feels comfortable telling any stranger "Help, my guardian took pictures of me naked", have a justice system that determines the truth, and inform the community of the outcome so they can shun the evildoer
Really interesting piece, thanks for posting this

Why get defense industry mixed up her? The airports already deal with stray birds. They can deal with drones, too.
I don't know what other financial services the Accredited Investor Rule deprives ordinary consumers of, but to the extent that it deprives them of access to VC investments: it's increasing their wealth. Most VC firms fail. A significant chunk of assets under VC management are there as part of a hedging strategy for a much larger portfolio; it's not parked there with the expectation that any one person's retirement can depend on it.
"Under high pressure, microorganisms burst, and the food is sterilised, a process that today yields preservative-free lunch meats, packaged guacamole that stays green under its wrapper, and fresh-tasting bottled juices (the process is sometimes called cold pasteurisation)."

A confusing bit of nomenclature, as "cold pasteurisation" is also used to refer to using ionizing radiation on food for the same purposes.
Ideally a contractor voluntarily employed by the airport, to improve their liability position. TSA (as
Consultant32452 implied) would be a poor fit. Airports already employ people with dogs, traps, and shotguns to prevent birds from interfering with flights, could be a similar deal. Shotguns would probably be fine for most drones, and relatively safe to operate skyward (unlike most other projectile weapons).

There's embedded survivorship bias here that is distorting your analysis. The median successful microbrewery does a fine, if quiet, business. But most new business starts, especially in the food and hospitality sectors, fail. Lots of attempts at microbreweries never find a market fit, or are unable to execute with sufficient margins to stay afloat.

Kickstarter works because nobody funds a Kickstarter with the expectation that they'll be able to return to those funds later to fund college, a house purchase, or a retirement. That's not the case with equity crowdfunding.

>What question are you paraphrasing that somehow translates to shooting people? My question was about shooting down drones.

My bad, I meant re-stating your question if drones were replaced with people.

That's why I said "limited circumstances". It would be wrong to allow to shoot down drones willy-nilly, but certain circumstances should allow it.

>It's not the people's decision as to whether a drone is violating the law.

Well, same reasoning can be applied to take down all self-defense laws.

>Shooting a drone for flying over your property could make it go out of control and injure others.

In which case you should be liable for damages.

Because of the irregularity of the dimming. A normal planet should dim the star in a consistent predictable pattern, such as once an orbit and the orbit should take the same time each time.

Something like _ _ A _ _ A _ _ A _ _ A

Multiple planets should do the same, the nearer planets dim it more often, the farther less often, but the same time between the same planet's occultation and a predictable pattern.

Something like _A _ _ B A _ _ _ A _ _ B A _ _ _ A _ _ B A

Sometimes yes -- sometimes no.

Yes, if you're creating better entertainment, but furniture, better toys, better gadgets, and people are willing to pay for them, you have made the world better.

But people are also willing to pay for weapons, for software that helps them to violate the privacy of others, for financial products that promise much and deliver little, for products that have addictive properties from sugar to gambling to everything else.

So, yes, just building things that other people want and getting rich in the process CAN be a good thing to do. But it is not AUTOMATICALLY a good thing to do.
Thanks for mentioning Binti! We help people become foster parents and help foster care agencies approve foster families. More foster families means vulnerable children can get out of group homes and into family homes, where they're more likely to have a good experience. With the help of Binti's web software, social workers spend less time doing paperwork and more time helping families, so they have a greater impact and are less likely to leave the field.

Yep, you are expected to sail at around 5 knots on a quite common size of 32 ft. In reality you can push it to 6 or 7 knots, but you don't wanna push it in the middle of the ocean.

The shortest path is from Cape Verde to Brazil, around 1350 nm, but doldrums (area with not wind) is there, so not the smartest place to sail.

That's the OP's point: in a situation where you might want to have the drone registered, the operator is probably breaking some other laws, and would be unlikely to have their drone registered.

That is, the registration is not helpful, and so should not be implemented in the form proposed by the FAA.
>I'd have to register an aircraft if I wanted to fly it in most cases, and I'd have to register myself (get a pilot's license)

There are entire classes of aircraft (ultra-lights most prominently) that require no license or registration to fly.

The relevant law here comes from The FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, which prevented the FAA from imposing any new regulations on model aircrafts. The FAA classifies drones as model aircrafts, ergo they can't make you register them.

The 2015 rule requiring registration was clear overreach by the FAA, made even more ridiculous because it was labeled an "emergency action"
