Great great great great article. Never seen so much facts and analysis in an Ethereum/ICO post (aside from Vitaliks maybe).

This whole ICO craze is going to hurt Eth in the long run, just like fraudulent campaigns hurt Kickstarter. People need to realize those ICOs are completely overhyped right now, lacking anything worth investing in the most cases.
The original title of the webpage/paper is "Causes of differences in model and satellite tropospheric warming rates".

The current title, "Climate models still don't reflect whats observed," seems rather heavily editorialized.
Does anyone know a good guide for getting set up with ZFS (particularly on Linux/Ubuntu)? The Ubuntu wiki basically just say "apt install zfs" and then links to a page that appears to be a brain dump of all the possible commands. Something with more coherence explanation of the relevant concepts would be really helpful.

I think what might be unique is that the idea of China with pretty much the same borders has persisted for so long. Reinforcing that idea also has been a strong goal for several Chinese leaders over the centuries. Other countries have been divided, expanded, absorbed etc. and seem to have been much less stable in their borders. The idea of Germany for example is very young in comparison and the territory has obviously give through massive changes. It's incredible that China has persisted so insanely long without much change.

>>The problem with stories like this is they conflate two problems: (1) being down on your luck (but hard-working and reasonably intelligent) (2) being stuck in a poverty loop due to mental illness, criminal record, or countless other complex factors.

Those two problem can be classified as:

1. Taking personal responsibility.
2. Not taking personal responsibility.

The moment you make up your mind that you are not responsible for your problem, you essentially remove any incentive to take action at your end. Essentially making it impossible for any real solution to work.

Im not saying people do not fail for reasons beyond their control. But if you do away the personal responsibility part, you permanently shut down the door for taking action from your end.

All models are wrong but some are useful. My PhD was in empirical protein dynamics (solution NMR, CD, DSF, etc..) and the long and short of it is that disordered states are particularly difficult to distinguish from one another. When you consider that an even partially disordered ensemble has essentially an infinite number of nearly degenerate conformations inter-converting on timescales ranging from picoseconds to milliseconds, lumping them into coil/turn/other turns out to be just the law of large numbers in action (reversion to the mean, etc.).

That and the biophysical properties conferred by partially disordered proteins makes them a motherfucker to work with outside of some archetypal domains. I liked to explain it like this. Imagine you have a piece of string three feet long. Along the length of that string you have ~1 inch segments consisting of velcro (both kinds), zippers, magnets, balloons, strawberry jello, and marshmallows--all randomly distributed along the length. Now try to fold all of that up so the jello, velcro, and balloons are on the inside. That's a simple model of a protein. Now make it start opening and closing. Now put 5 of them next to each other.

> House cats also show none of the typical signs of animal domestication, such as infantilization of facial features, decreased tooth size, and docility.

this is probably false? your average house cat is obviously more docile than an actual wild cat. Devon Rex, Cornish Rex, and Siamese all have exaggerated infantile features (you could argue that all house cats have similar features compared to say, a bobcat). and their teeth are all much smaller across the board.

plus a host of other domesticated animals (chickens, horses) only meet one or two of the above criteria. so if the question is "are cats as domesticated as dogs?" the answer is definitely not. but the article seems to harp on a weird definition of the word "domesticated"

6 TIPS FOR BETTER ORDER CONFIRMATION EMAILS
Whether or not bracket free code is more readible might be a personal opinion. I think for people who understand Coffeesctipt well, its easier because theres less visual noise.

Coffeescript proves that they are not necessary in order to write javascript.
>deterministic, reliable and consistent

Is there a formal definition for all three terms?

* Deterministic - the system is intrinsically incapable of undefinable behavior, provably so. (Though extrinsic factors like hardware or network failure could result in undefinable behavior).

* Consistent - Every read receives the most recent write or an error (from CAP Theorem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAP_theorem)

* Reliable - ?
Part of the reason probably more biz related.

CEO/CFO of Intel looked at the balance sheet every Quarters and make decision if they should continue to invest in ARM SOC (A few years back before they sold that div to Marvell.)

ARM is #4,5, 6 in market position behind TI, Qualcomm, Freescale and lossing $$$ every quarters.

One need to investment huge amount of $$$ continuously fundamentally at IP for GSM, LTE, Mobile OS Team, SOC team and there were almost zero chance to catch up with #1 #2 players of the time -- Qualcomm, TI, 8-10 years ago.

You're being quite naive, not understanding what the issue is.

Of course everything you do will be a product of what "you" "decide" to do. In that, completely naive & day-to-day, sense of the phrase, "you" do have "free will".

But how did that "decision" come to be? Was there a cause for it to happen? If so, what caused it? If it was caused by deterministic laws of physics, then that doesn't sound much like "free will". If it was random, it doesn't sound like "free will" either. What is "free will" and how does it start electrochemical reactions in your brain which will result in a movement of your hand? What is "you", which posseses "free will"?

The company I work for typically pays for one conference a year per dev (and obviously this is on "company time"). After 3 years I'm just about to take advantage of this for the first time (heading to GopehrCon!).

- It's a perk.

- It's a chance to clear your head.

- You get to meet a lot of interesting people, chat to them about what they're doing.

- It's not the same as watching the videos. You can interact with the presenters after their talk. You can discuss the topics with others. Your time is 100% on the topic at hand.

- It shows the company really cares about professional development. They're putting their money where their mouth is.

- It shows trust in employees not to abuse this.

- Conferences help create a sense of community in the industry.

It's not something I do often, go to conferences, but it's nice to have the company's support if you want to.
This is demonstrably false. You need only look at the actions of our government (e.g. The CIA) to discern that the United States has gone to war (or "military conflicts" or whatever they call them these days) for reasons such as A) financial gain for private persons and companies B) financial gain for politicians C) financial gain for the country D) political gain for individuals E) extending a miltary based hegemony F) moral agendas (e.g the War on Drugs) etc, etc. The United States is by no means some perfect rational actor which engages in war solely for economic reasons or for "self-defense".

I wrote a blog post a few years ago explaining how molecules get to the right place at the right time. The short answer is that cells are nothing like the nice, peaceful animations. Cells are extremely crowded and things move extremely fast. Glucose molecules, for instance, move around cells at 250 miles per hour and collides with something billions of times a second. An enzyme might collide with a reactant 500,000 times a second. And proteins can spin a million times per second. So as you suspect, by random chance molecules are in the right spot very frequently.

Most highly intelligent people spend the majority of their K-12 schooling taking classes designed for average-intelligence people who match their chronological age. They can achieve at a given level in class with much less effort than those around them, and they generally aren't given a strong incentive to achieve more. If they develop the habit of working hard to achieve at their limits, it's probably because they have a strong interest that they pursue outside of school.

If you're speaking of China as in the PRC, the history goes back less than a century and its territory has only expanded. If you're speaking of the region, then in reality Europe has a history of being even more divided. Nobody wants to see their homeland being taken away or families separated.

>"They just want to take back what used to belong."

How is this different from various historical German ideologies that have centered around "taking back" Greater Germany including the former holdings of the Holy Roman Empire or Prussia? Consider that Otto von Bismarck was still alive when Taiwan was part of Japan.

The desire to fully restore the borders of the Qing is completely understandable and even laudable from the Chinese perspective. The problem is that it's nearly impossible to have a peaceful world if every national or ethnic group feels justified in using the historical borders its ancestors once held as a bar for what they need to "take back", by force if necessary.

Agree with the problems Jason identifies but not convinced by the solution: his suggestions basically rely on the crowd to "get it right" (or on draconian management to enforce rules).

I'd rather see something built from the ground up to get it right. Hiri for example ( https://www.hiri.com ) tries this for email - https://www.google.ch/amp/s/techcrunch.com/2016/06/07/hiri/a... - the product even includes features to rate colleagues emails and help them improve.

By contrast I'm pretty sure if we could review Slacks internal documentation we'd find it's been built to be addictive by design: its intended purpose is to consume every second and minute you give it because that drives its growth and success.
New computers are expensive. That is the reason people looking for used or refurbished computers. The term "USED" and "REFURBISHED" both stands for Used Computers. The first is Used..It is available as is..Means if it is working ..It is working

Refurbished is also a used computer but the difference is that it has been restored to its original condition. Means Proper testing has been done, remove or replace any faulty components, and testing done to ensure it is working fine properly and it will be more reliable.

You can find used computers in India with the following seller

They're really neat tech videos. The first confirms how slow and expensive I'd expect it to be. The second looks really complicated compared to humans picking off pallets with PITS guiding other pallets or rollers. First vid I found on YouTube:

https://youtu.be/VOg4NE6M-_I?t=46s

So, they have pallets all over the place. The order pickers are driving something automated to grab the stuff. They get a good amount at once. They can stack it on new pallets or ship it as shown. Pretty straight-forward. I could see some addition speeding up dealing with the vertical pallets. Those self-driving forklifts from show Silicon Valley could be nice. Yet, the automated versions are so expensive that some (all?) DC's in both Walmart and Kroger got rid of the pallet-wrapping machines per conversations with employees. It wasn't cost effective to maintain vs just having low-paid people do it they said.

So, it will be interesting to see what happens with all this. I like the idea of doing frozen first as people might be moving slower. I do also recall those having boxes that are more similar to each other compared to other loads. I'd start with pallet or roller optimization software that tells people to get the stuff in the order that stacks or ships easiest. That might exist already. I only have second-hand info from the DC's so don't know. Maybe have robots that move things automatically dropping pallets or adding them as in the video with the humans order picking off them. Maybe some lights or something on the dolly to show where to drop the next box for ideal stacking. There's possibilities..

You don't need to grasp any of the complexity to believe that free will does't exist. In fact the argument is almost a truism: as long as the mind is something created by the brain, and the brain is governed by the laws of nature (both known and unknown), then there's no free will.

It's a somewhat tired argument, because it's mostly semantics. But it really doesn't matter how complex the brain is.
