We could then re-evaluate rent control on the same logic!

I think both of these controls have some helpful effects that last way longer than they should. We are trying to damp market oscillations (speculation), not remove them completely! Perhaps the increases could be the moving average of the last 5-10 years, so increases would slowly phase in if they are real growth and be smoothed over if they are temporary fluctuations.

Please don't be offended by this, but perhaps your communication skills are at fault. While it may be tiring for you, people who are dealing with a lot of really difficult problems often need to vent some frustration and anger, both as stress relief and to qualify you (or not) as a sincere ally who won't fade when progress is difficult.

If you're in too much of a hurry to sell your solution, notwithstanding your good intentions, your interlocutors are likely to be a bit skeptical because they've heard many such presentations before only to be disappointed by the lack of follow-through.

Being right is not always as important as being receptive when you're trying to establish new structural relationships under difficult conditions, whatever those happen to be. I hope this can make your future communications more rewarding, even though it may require a greater initial investment of time and patience.
Ah ok, I was curious to know your opinion since for me, "women-friendly policies" mean consideration for pregnancy, childcare and so on!

As a father, it bothers me to see those considerations described as "women-friendly." Why is it assumed that my wife is the one who has to leave early to pick our daughter up from school? The most "woman friendly" policy would also involve changing the expectations on men to allow women's partners to take on more of the care giving role (for example). I strongly agree with seaknoll in characterizing them as "human friendly" policies.

I agree. Advertising is not a great business model on its own, particularly with the proliferation of adblockers. If there was a way to get people supporting more paid content then IMO the quality of content could also improve. But who knows how all this will go in the end. There's always been a lot of high quality free content on the Internet as well, just because people are willing to share their knowledge with each other.

All these peer responses actually agree with you.

Why would people pursue noble, philosophical causes? Because it makes them happy to see those pursued. Why would somebody want the world around them to be better? Because it makes them happy to see the world be a better place. Why would somebody sacrifice of themselves to see a loved one better off? That's kind of the definition of love, that they're happy that their loved one is better off.

This gets more tautological than philosophical.
Like the mortage-interest tax deduction, NIMBY zoning benefits so many people, once you do it, it's hard to undo without tanking the economy. It's a regressive tax, but so many voters benefit I doubt anything will ever change.

I really don't understand how people continue to state wrong information about ssh. Is it because of Heart Bleed? SSH is 22 years old and is still a solid tool. The only bad thing about ssh is key management which this company is addressing.
The Two Travelers and the Farmer

North America

A traveler came upon an old farmer hoeing in his field beside the road. Eager to rest his feet, the wanderer hailed the countryman, who seemed happy enough to straighten his back and talk for a moment.
"What sort of people live in the next town?" asked the stranger.

"What were the people like where you've come from?" replied the farmer, answering the question with another question.

"They were a bad lot. Troublemakers all, and lazy too. The most selfish people in the world, and not a one of them to be trusted. I'm happy to be leaving the scoundrels."

"Is that so?" replied the old farmer. "Well, I'm afraid that you'll find the same sort in the next town.

Disappointed, the traveler trudged on his way, and the farmer returned to his work.

Some time later another stranger, coming from the same direction, hailed the farmer, and they stopped to talk. "What sort of people live in the next town?" he asked.

"What were the people like where you've come from?" replied the farmer once again.

"They were the best people in the world. Hard working, honest, and friendly. I'm sorry to be leaving them."

"Fear not," said the farmer. "You'll find the same sort in the next town."

>> Can an employee leave early to run errands or pick up kids

Your theory about accommodating different arrangements -> accommodating different people makes sense too, but I think this flexibility is also the direct opposite of some anti-woman bias. If people don't value them as employees because of the assumption that as (potential) mothers they're less dedicated or less reliable, being willing to accept that parents have other, more important things in their life regardless of gender and being willing to work with that is progress (for everyone).
I don't know why you need to reconcile them.

Should MS reconcile the XBox with the PC?

I think because the overlap between the usage of a tablet and a PC is so great, people think there should be some sort of convergence.

So long as everything uses the same methods of communication, file formats, protocols etc everything will be ok.

For most people, software is also solved. Everything is a web app. So what's really missing?
Hi, this is Matt Taylor from Numenta.

What I said, exactly, is "We have relationships with some neuroscientists".

You can see the text (https://www.reddit.com/r/artificial/comments/6beeqj/5182017_...) and a video of me talking during the AMA about our relationships with neuroscientists (https://youtu.be/9fk8tg_jqh0?t=43m6s).

The fact is that we have many ongoing relationships with neuroscientists. But I don't know them personally so I didn't give any details. We also have a Guest Scientist program aimed at increasing these collaborations.

"The budget for Hanford alone is about $2.3 billion in the current fiscal year, about $1.5 billion of that going to the management and treatment of approximately 56 million gallons of radioactive liquid waste stored in underground storage tanks."
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2017/05/0...

Ultimately, however, the core problem may be that such new reactors don't eliminate the nuclear waste that has piled up so much as transmute it. Even with a fleet of such fast reactors, nations would nonetheless require an ultimate home for radioactive waste, one reason that a 2010 M.I.T. report on spent nuclear fuel dismissed such fast reactors. Or, as Cochran puts it: "If you want to get rid of milk, don't feed it to cows."

"Do the math! 1.1 additional GT out of 36 GT emitted is only a 3% difference. This 3% value is not a typographical error. Worldwide, all those nukes made only a 3% dent in yearly CO2 production. Put another way, each of the 438 individual nuclear plants contribute less than seven thousandths of one percent to CO2 reduction[18]. That’s hardly enough to justify claims that keeping your old local nuke running is necessary to prevent the sea from rising."

> In conclusion, Apple is . . . somewhat late to market . . . The best way for Apple to alleviate this jam is to release its own AR glasses/headset, which it is widely rumored to be developing.

I'm not sure this line of reasoning holds up. You mention 3 markets:

1. consumer

2. enterprise

3. the "market" for developer mindshare

Apple doesn't especially care about being early or late to any of these markets. Let's take them one by one.

1. There is currently no real consumer market for AR, so Apple is not late. And I don't see any reason why Apple would not be content to wait and see if one develops. It's not clear how releasing an improved version of Google Glass saves Apple from any kind of "jam". People are not clamoring for this type of product, because its value is highly unclear.

2. There is currently no real enterprise market for AR, so Apple is not late. Apple has no history of making industrial equipment. Are you saying Apple is about to take the unusual step of starting a whole new sales channel, targeting a whole new class of buyers, to try to get first-mover advantage in a new and unproven market helping warehouse workers do line monitoring and "remote help"? It seems unlikely.

3. Apple has a huge, strong developer base it is in no danger of losing. Again, it's not clear how offering an AR SDK gets them out of a jam.

If I had to guess as to why they are playing in this area, it may be to help seed the ground with more iOS devs familiar with this tech, so that in the event that the market does develop, they are in a good position to harvest ideas, talent, and apps.
Or you just use any kind of loyalty card/ account when making a payment using apple pay even once. :(
I didn't realize it only randomized once and am now disappointed in the way apple marketed it.

TBH, you sound pretty toxic yourself. Exclusionary to "white dudes" and lots of whining about how other people arn't catering to you.

If you don't like it, you could always start your own company. Then you'd be the boss and can set the culture. But that would require personal responsibility. It's a lot easier to just blame "white guys" for not creating a culture just for your ever so special life.

Might sound harsh, but try some self-reflection, and try to stop being such a victim.
I think it's not far fetched to imagine someone with a paid subscription is subscribing to use it habitually as opposed to just having access whenever they clicked on a link via google.
That's what made me confused. There is no way to "change" password, only to create a new profile and migrate to it. And you can have many profiles at the same time (some with equal email).

>For automation you also have to store the list of websites you've registered with somewhere. Since your system works on multiple clients, that place has to be central.

The plan is: until we have 1000+ origins using the protocol, there will be a manual list of origins that will be tried for reset. After that, it will be sorted out with a central server and encrypted list of origins. Sounds good?

> you absolutely want to authenticate the client (it might not always be the user's own browser) in addition to the user/grant

Cool part is you still can. Provider can look at "client" the token was issued to, and reject if it does not match with some authorized Client record in the database. It's rather flexible for any scenario.
Why on earth would I want my ssh keys on a device that is almost always connected to the internet if security is a major concern? A Yubikey (hardware based key) is by far the best solution.

Your site shows up fine if I search for SGML Syntax Reference or SGML syntax. Meanwhile, it doesn't appear to generally be about learning basic SGML concepts, so it seems quite reasonable that it doesn't show up when just searching for SGML. And why blame Google when Bing does the same?

It seems like your complaint is that adding one page of reference info wasn't enough to serve as an ad for your business. It doesn't seem like a valid complaint to me.

The XPS 13 is a nice laptop, it isn't "all in the display" though, which when you talk about volume and battery time it counts. Currently from what I can see from teardowns (https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Microsoft+Surface+Pro+4+Tear...) there isn't enough space for the current Intel discrete solution (but there is in the XPS 13 and there would have been in the Surface Book if they put it in the keyboard half.)
iPad sales are down by half (in unit terms) compared with its peak. Android tablet sales are down as well.

From his previous remarks (Why would you buy a PC? etc), Tim Cook seems to want everyone to move to iOS, and the neglect of the Mac line seems to support that idea. But he's yet to show he can move the market in that direction....
How about reading it using the link I provided, and considering it in the light of other studies cites in the original article and in the references section of this paper? I'm not claiming it to be the be-all and end-all of lead-specific social cost studies, but while we we discuss the reliability of the statistical conclusions large numbers of people are suffering the shitty first- and second-order effects of lead poisoning and society as a whole remains worse off because of a relatively fixable problem.
Indeed.

My mobile office has been reduced to a 12" iPad Pro with a 13" MB. All files are kept in iCloud and shared between the portable devices, a MBP, an iMac, and a custom PC.

The two portables together - inside a shared soft case with plastic protectors on each - weigh a lot less than my 15" 2015 MBP, and vastly less than a 17" Dell laptop I tried to use for a while. Having two big screens and one real keyboard is hugely more productive than trying to do everything on a single device.

The MBP gets hauled out for anything that needs more power or a bigger screen - not often in practice, because the battery life isn't anywhere close to being good enough for a full day of work.

I moved to this setup from the MBP about six months ago, and it's been a big step up in productivity. With two fairly light devices I can do almost anything I need to do almost anywhere. It's at least as productive for coding, research, and social as my old non-portable dual-screen Mac Mini setup from a few years ago.

It's not powerful enough for content creation, but that needs extra music hardware and bigger displays, and for now I'm happy to leave the tools for that at home.

As a bonus, the big iPad on its own is also the best ereader I've ever used.

> "cops are disproportionately killing black kids", then that was disproven

Was that disproven? The studies that I've read have shown disproportionate police shooting fatality rates among African American men, especially in the unarmed case when adjusted for population. [1]

The unarmed case is the one I pay attention to the most as I think that it (mostly?) filters out cases where shootings were justified.

I'd like to keep an open mind so I welcome any reading that has disproven the disproportionate argument.
