Hunger isn't a solved problem in the United States, and it's either because the food banks aren't doing a good enough job, the corporations are too cozy with the "anti-hunger complex", the government isn't doing a good enough job, income inequality is too high, or because the public thinks that that food drives do more good than they actually do.

I'm first in line to point out that things in reality have complicated causes, but I have to agree that this is all over the board and if I put on my manager's hat, I don't think any group comes away with any actionable items from it.
I interpreted that as "possible to mine on GPUs", not "profitable to mine", but I guess I misunderstood that.
Working remotely part of the time is common. Full time seems rare, and I've known people who had to find another job when their office closed.
When simultaneously translated English to Spanish, my translators complained because I speak fast, and they'd tell me they can't keep up. When I slow down enough, I end up losing my train of thought, so I had to practice speaking slower.

Also it might differ Mexican Spanish vs Castilian, where I didn't get much of a complaint by Castilian translators.

From a purely genetic perspective, it's better to have children when you're young.
Meticulously lining code up like ASCII art seems like an antipattern to me nowadays. It might make some regions of the code look a little bit nicer, but it's never really strictly necessary and it comes at the cost of higher maintenance - for example, add to that list of assignments with lined up equals signs and you have to make your addition line up too, and if your variable name is longer than the longest one in the list so far you have to move all the previous ones over.

Fair advice. You see this frequently with art, startups, technology, and business in general.

The idea is akin to this: You have a cold, but you take medication to prevent it from hampering your work. However, this means you do not rest, which would cure the cold. The moment you stop receiving the medication, the cold resurfaces.

In this situation, the cold is the root cause, the medication is the corporate 'problem solution', but the medication is also perpetuating the cold by making the proper solution less attractive.

The proper solution would be to change incentives such that sick workers are allowed to, and comfortable with, taking time to let the cold clear.
Birthday is not public record, and there is no evidence that it is. That's the point. There's no government entity that will give you a list of people's names and dates of birth.

You cited California DMV which does not give up that information. They won't even give you someone's address unless you're legally entitled, like the police.
Yes, but it currently depends on them being annoying.

They would lose a lot of eyeballs if a new, non-annoying imgur like service popped up. Similar to how they initially killed off some existing image hosts.
> Being complicated and needing to care about the complications are different.

I used to think that but changed my mind when it comes to programming languages. Mainly because once complexity is there, unless it's just a single developer or very tightly controlled / peer reviewed development practice, different contributors will use various subsets of features of the language and so you still have to know all the complex edge cases because you might have to read code. And arguably code is read more than written.
I don't think so. Why do you?
> The domain in question (drmlocal.cisco.com) resolves to 127.0.0.1.

So if someone just MITMs your clear text DNS to make drmlocal.cisco.com resolve to something else, they get your cisco.com cookies and plausible chance to impersonate Cisco?

> "Walmart doesn’t pay its workers very well."

I've worked with the very low income, and Wal-Mart (and McDonald's) are at top of their respective categories as desired jobs. Both pay better than most alternatives. Our state's Wal-Mart entry jobs pay 20% more than minimum wage.

> "pays its workers so poorly, they have to rely on food stamps and food banks to make ends meet."

Wal-Mart, by quota, hires people their diversity report calls "people of color". In 2015, 51% of people Wal-Mart hired were "people of color". At least in my state, African-Americans are six times more likely to be on food stamps. If Wal-Mart hiring matched the general population ratios, then their food stamp stats would look much more like the general population.

There are real problems in the word, but Wal-Mart's wages aren't one of them - they pay better than the alternatives. I really don't get the Wal-Mart hate.

But having helped someone fill out a job application for McDonalds, I'd personally take a programmer interview any day. That was way too many fricking questions.
emacs' makefile-gmake-mode, loaded automatically for makefiles, also hides this. I've set indent-tabs-mode to nil in my .emacs for years, but the mode knows it's needed, and will indent the line with a highlighted tab ( until you begin writing in the command to follow it, when it unhighlights it ).

You never know. SaaS is kind of a gateway drug to BeyondCorp since SaaS isn't inside the firewall to begin with. The next step is to start applying a SaaS mindset to your own internal apps and then you're mostly there.
I've heard good reviews of the language here. So I've no doubt about its technical capabilities. However, funding might suppress the ability to make breaking changes.. which I believe are pretty good until 1.0 or so. On the business side, will we end up with (hopefully) a better, cheaper Matlab?
So what do you actually do? I work with Jupyter notebooks daily. I'm not really sure what you are actually doing with them even after visiting both of your links. Are you hosting deployments on the web? Changing how common plotting tools are displayed?

Having the expandable/collapsible code is nifty for sure, but that's the main feature I noticed.

If I can offer some perhaps unsolicited feedback, I'd like for you guys to make it more clear (explitcly clear) what exactly you are offering. Your main web page just looks like a sales pitch for jupyter notebooks in general.
Simpler times. Public facing IP address, web server running on my machine and serving from /var/httpd/public_html or some similar directory. People go with 3rd parties nowadays for the slick web interface and that they do the "hard" work of setting up bandwidth caps and security for you.

Code with spaces looks always good. Code with tabs looks good if the other developer has the same tab length, but will not look correctly if it is wildly different, because of the right margin not lining up correctly.
Taking your view on Republican's inner psychology from Krugman is about as reliable as asking Sean Hannity what animates Democrats. That hardly even rises to the level of "unfounded accusation".
Back in the day, the bulk of Internet users were on university networks, and they gave everyone access to Unix systems where anything you put in public_html goes up on the university's website under your username.

For example, I went to UTD from 2003 to 2007. This was long after the days of "the bulk of Internet users were on university networks" were over, but the infrastructure was still there. All students had ssh access to a handful of machines, the main one being apache.utdallas.edu.

So I could do this:

$ scp picture.jpg ajb0##000@apache.utdallas.edu:./public_html

And then anyone would be able to access it at:

http://www.utdallas.edu/~ajb0##000/picture.jpg

(FYI, at UTD, everyone's username was their initials followed by a six-digit number where usually only the second and third were nonzero... I ##'d that part out because I don't feel like giving out the exact username I had back then... especially since my initials were different)

Edit: And even if you weren't at a university, back in the dialup days it used to be that even with home internet, everyone's computer was directly on the Internet with no NAT or any kind of firewall, so you could just install Apache on your box and serve what you wanted. On paper, most ISPs banned that practice in their TOS, but it was never enforced. The real impediments were that a) dialup connections would usually disconnect if you went idle too long and b) most people had dynamic IP addresses that changed every time you dialed in (for the latter, DynDNS was a godsend). And of course dialup bandwidth was shit, so hosting anything substantial (especially an image!) would slow down your connection (seriously, people would actually buy second phone lines from their telcos and maybe even get a second account with their ISP so as not to tie up their main connection).

Broadband made it easier: even with a NAT router, you could just forward port 80 to your desktop, and you won't have to worry about bandwidth, your connection would stay up 24/7, and even if your IP was technically considered dynamic it would almost never change. What really sunk the concept of hosting your own was a) mobile (good luck running Apache on your phone, and getting port forwarding on a mobile network is impossible) and b) the rise of services like Imgur that let you host shit with no hassle (Facebook killed self-hosted personal home pages for the same reason).
Calling it "Google BeyondCorp" makes it sound like a product; maybe if they called it something like "BeyondCorp architecture" it would be clearer what they're talking about.

We currently host static renderings of the notebooks, for reading and sharing, where you can pull them down to your local installation of Jupyter to extend them.

On our roadmap is for Kyso to work like the Google drive integration, where you can use a jupyter kernel (https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter-drive) hosted anyway but server the notebooks from Kyso.

And we are also planning fully runnable notebooks too, we do aim to be the easiest way to run your own jupyter server.
There are some weird assumptions in your question.

Assumption 1: a government is able to shut down its entire internet, and block off all electronic communications.

This assumption is fine. There are multiple historical examples of governments of doing this.

When a government does this though, there is no network split. A network split is when you have 2 networks that are cut off from one another. The government "shutting off the internet" does not create 2 networks. it make the population of the country have zero access to ANY network. Which means no split.

Which leads us to:

Assumption 2: A government is able to cut off access to the OUTSIDE internet, while also maintaining an INTERNAL network that can talk to each other, but not talk to the outside world.

This is basically impossible. There are no examples of governments being able to do this in any significant capacity.

Sure, there is some attempted internet censorship in countries like China, but the great firewall is extremely leaky. And even if it were 99% effective, 99% effective isn't good enough.

In order to partition the bitcoin network, you do not need to make it impossible for 99% of the population to get access to the outside world. You need to stop 100%, with no margin for error. This is because as soon as a SINGLE node is able to get access to the outside world, it can rebroadcast the information to all internal nodes.
> How relevant is feeding people to that?

It doesn't generate shareholder value. Unless you're a grocery store or food producer whose customers are subsidized by food stamps or similar programs.

Feeding people also reduces the risk of a revolution (whether peaceful or violent) forcibly changing our power structures.

I think I'm even more confused now. If you're going to have an app ssh or rsync, it's going to have a password or a private key to use that will be associated with some account, right?

It doesn't take away the argument that neither decorators and with would be necessary if lambdas was a language feature.
The root cause, IMO, is rent-seeking. Various groups can achieve their goals through making it more expensive to be poor. Parking tickets, land rents, civil forfeiture, bank fees, occupational licensing and restrictions, regressive taxation, de-facto requirements for university degrees, wage theft, and probably more things that I don't have the time to dive into.

We the resources to end hunger in America. The massive reduction in workforce dedicated to agriculture is evidence of that. The problem is that "or you'll starve" is a highly effective tool to coerce economic rents out of people, so efforts reducing the amount of hunger just means that rentiers can squeeze more out of those barely making it.
What would something like this look like? There's no incentive on the part of the inhabitant to conserve if the landlord covers electricity, so clearly it's not as simple on that.

CFD and other high-fidelity multiphysics simulations can be efficient when GPU-bound. It all comes down to being able to write a matrix and stream a bunch of vectors to multiply it by. When considering Krylov subspace methods, this extends to covering a large part of the problem space of linear algebra.

I think the Tesla cards in particular are double precision, which is not necessarily the best for deep learning applications.

Sounds like a good idea for the language and a good startup idea. I know of two businesses that support python and since Data Science is a growing field we can always need competition in environments and languages.
The assumption is I google search the things I know and enjoy, which is actually pretty accurate for time-at-home bored-surfing.

One problem is I also spend a huge amount of time googling stuff I'm completely uninterested in and hate doing. What wires do you jumper again to test a mid 00s whirlpool freezer icemaker to verify its motor works, again? Once its fixed I never want to see that again, certainly don't want to work as an appliance repairman.

Possibly there is an algorithm to analyze behavior. Oh he's searching for freebsd something or other maybe he'd like a sysadmin job. Oh look he's hate-searching for icemaker repair again, better not suggest appliance repair jobs.

It might be a solution - albeit painful - but more largely I think the problem is somewhat different, whereas before sites didn't support FF because they didn't really know FF because it was new, now it seems they don't support it because they don't care anymore.

Should we be thankful that there are lots of realtors? We should be thankful there is enough real estate and the price is accessible (at least for some of us). Realtors are a means to an end, not an end in themselves.

I liken it to web ads. The worst web ads will attempt drive-by downloads or are simply obnoxious -- loud, obtrusive, clickjacking, forced-redirects, autoplayed video on pay-per-bandwidth connections, ill-designed for different form-factors, badly layered under/over content. Then again, some ads are perfectly tailored, unobtrusive, small, and fast. Most people generally don't complain about the latter. They don't install AdBlockers to avoid the latter. But the latter are collateral damage of people avoiding the former.

> how lucky they are for being stalked by recruiters

This is not costless. I stopped answering my phone because it was causing context switches while at work and affecting my productivity. Eventually I figured out that I needed to unsubscribe from recruiter lists (some of which were probably email-confirmation spam traps) and to completely obfuscate my job search profiles while I was not searching.
Thanks for your feedback, currently we host static renderings of the notebooks, so you can share them easily for other to read. And others can pull them down locally and extend them.

Actually economists are uncertain about that. It's not as simple as you make it seem.
Somewhat misleading headline. Last sentence: "For this reason I am 99.9% confident the USS Fitzgerald will be found at fault… and so will the ACX Crystal."

While the author makes a compelling case why the Fitzgerald should have avoided the collision, the accident is still under active investigation and thus definitively assigning blame is premature.

Information released to the press has been quite limited. Only the crews of both ships have an idea of what actually took place, and the investigators are still in the process of interviewing them and reviewing instrumentation, damage, and onboard recordings.
I guess I have a question of what OP meant when saying your sensory organs "absorb" gigabits per second of information. In my reading, I took that to mean sensory input that actually makes it into the brain.

Interesting idea and it would certainly help to alleviate the "how many editors do we need to provide code style config for" problem, but it looks rather limited in scope at the moment (for instance it doesn't even try to address "brace on current line or line of its own", let alone more odd things like GNU coding style brace indent).
