ok, and will you now cite the studies showing the harm that alcohol does. I shall wait. water has none except in extreme amounts (i'm talking gallons)

by the way, anyone can play this game:

the benefits of water are virtually limitless:

[1] https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11978586

[2] aids in weight loss and metabolic control (alcohol makes you fatter)

press.endocrine.org/doi/full/10.1210/jc.2003-030780

[3] keeps you hydrated

[4] improves digestion

[5] improves mood

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3984246/

[6] improves digestion

http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/6-reasons-to-drink-water#...

the fact is, every time you drink something that's not water, you have the opportunity cost. most of the studies would rank beverages in the following order:

1. water

2. tea

3. coffee

.
.
.
4. red wine

5. white wine

6. misc alcohol/mixed drinks

7. soda
Oh, I forgot to add - I actually ask for a coding task they think will put them in the best light. Like, "hey, I can balance a binary tree, let me show you". In my mind if someone learned something like this very well they show their learning potential, and complexity of the task will tell me their self-assessed level of development.
I like using a lot of aliases and chaining them together if I can and it makes sense.

The most common one I use all the time is one that changes the command prompt to show what git branch I'm on when in that directory. Just google it if you'd like.

If you repeat some command a lot or a chain of commands and it takes a lot of tedious typing, then script it.
I'm thinking that static typing is a big one.

> The average beer is stronger than it was 20 years ago

I very much doubt this. High strength lagers are much less popular than they were 20 years ago, not least because of beer tax that scales with strength. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/news/11455150/Britain...
>It's possible there's some userspace part that could be android specific, but there's a decent chance of it working under linux.

Isn't that a bit like taking a kernel driver for 3.4 and hoping it works on 4.10?

Or, more likely in Android's case - a heavily modified 3.0 and hoping it works on 4.10.

Yes, I know about libhybris (and wish someone had a good tutorial for using it).
> Now imagine your machine hit by ransomware and you being unable to boot it from a known clean OS...

... and then you buy a new one?

The last time I got ransomware was 2008 – while visiting a warez site. For me, and I imagine for most people, the frequency at which you will replace your computer is greater than the frequency that you will get ransomware. Best to throw the thing out and start fresh, making sure your photos and docs are backed up elsewhere.

I think it depends on the technology stack actually, I've noticed it's been trending up in mine (.net) with many now wanting 8-9 years experience. It seems like the sweet spot is generally age of technology divided by 2.
Unfortunately, this approach alone will only work for sites that are mostly static, eg. do not use JS to load dynamic content. That is a small (and shrinking) percent of the web. Once JS is involved, all bets are off -- JS will attempt to load content via ajax, or generate new html, load iframes, etc and you will have 'live leaks' where the content seems to be coming form the archive but is actually coming form the live web.

Here is an example from archiving nytimes home page:

https://archive.tesoro.io/665dbeab57a4d57d8140f89cfedc69b5

If you look at network traffic (domain in devtools), you'll see that only a small % is coming from archive.tesoro.io -- the rest of the content is loaded from the live web. This can be misleading and possibly a security risk as well.

Not to discourage you, but this is a hard problem and I've been working on for years now. This area is a moving target, but we think live leaks are mostly eliminated in Webrecorder and pywb, although there are lots of areas to work on to maintain high-fidelity preservation.

If you want chat about possible solutions or want to collaborate (we're always looking for contributors!), feel free to reach out to us at support [at] webrecorder.io or find my contact on GH.

Blaming debtors for indebtedness is like blaming heroin addicts for drug-running. It's a two-sided market, and savings gluts can and will drive down the price of credit until the market clears.
I don't think that's a particularly useful restriction. I think a restriction that factors in the overall utility vs hard of something.

You can pretty much always find a non harmful use for anything so requiring no non harmful users is effectively useless as a criteria.
I doubt that they addressed the general problem with this type of recreational drug experiment: the hypothesis that different brains and psychology cause different behaviour is very plausible a priori, the reverse not so much.

It would be good to test that with animals. You could control the alcohol consumption of rats in group A, let group B drink as much as they wanted to, and compare how the effects varied with consumption between the two groups. Has that experiment been done?
Typecasting: The Use and Misuse of Period Typography in Movies (2001)
Yes, I agree that we probably disagree on philosophical grounds. I would definitely favor a more bland article of maybes than one that was more bold. Perhaps I'm one of those scientists that's bad at communicating, but the uncertainty is where there are discoveries to be made, and I tend to focus on it :)
While true, this is largely beside the point, and is addressable because it's mostly caused by politics. We don't need to have yet another discussion about Bay Area building constraints.

Additionally, there are other cities that have more opportunity than closed mining towns do. At the bare minimum the people need to relocate to someplace marginally better with ANY economic opportunity, because where they're at now has NO opportunity, not necessarily some place that is the top of economic opportunity.

I believe I’m one of (or near) the “top 30” contributors (I’ve made substantial contributions to all of the aforementioned packages), and I’m funded to write scientific software. I’m extremely fortunate. Unfortunately, like so many things, I suspect it has everything to do with pedigree (e.g. my lab, my institution, my peers, etc.) rather than my (or my coworkers) exact contributions. In fact, I don’t know if any of my lab’s grants has ever explicitly mentioned our contributions to one of the discussed packages. However, this could change. I’m extremely encouraged, for example, by the comments from new institutions like OpenAI or the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative about the necessity of funding software.
I didn't mean to imply that gardening in general is easy, just that gardening basic houseplants seems like it's not supposed to be very hard.

We did look for gardening supplies that would spread the water out, but everything we found was designed for large fields or at least small gardens, not single planters. I'm seeing the same thing now when I Google "irrigation system parts." Looking at drippers, I'm not seeing how it would solve the problem. Doesn't it just drip onto a single spot?

Hydrogen doesn't buy you that much additional lifting power.

Air is about 1.2kg/m^3 at STP, so that's the theoretical maximum you can lift with a cubic meter of gas bag. (And you can only get that value if you could somehow hold a vacuum, of course.)

Hydrogen is about 0.09kg/m^3 at STP, so you can lift about 1.1kg/m^3. Helium is about 0.18kg/m^3, so you can lift about 1kg/m^3. Helium is twice as dense, but that only costs you about 10% of your lifting power since both are so light compared to air.

I see no reason you couldn't use hydrogen, but I don't know if anyone would want to take the risk. (Specific flaws of the Hindenburg aside, hydrogen is explosive across a distressingly wide range of mixture ratios with air.) If you did use hydrogen, I think the main motivation would be avoiding the use of scarce helium, not the minor increase in lift capacity.
Moving is harder because property taxes will suddenly reset to much higher values. Long-term owners are partly protected from tax increases.

We also have high transaction costs for homes. Considering both sides of the transaction, something like 10% of the home's value is eaten up by various fees.

So nobody can afford to move. BTW, this is a huge source of our traffic problems, the other being school districts.
Client side rendering is a lie
I love weird old computing dead ends like this. Pretty good ideas at the wrong time and place in history to allow them to take off. I mean, no mouse in 1987? Task-focused rather than general purpose? I remember reading about them when they were new; Amiga was my obsession by then (though I couldn't afford one for another couple years), but I devoured all the computing media I could get my hands on. They seemed like a toy, to me, and a very expensive one, to boot.

It's cool to imagine what the world would have looked like had we gone down different paths. If this had come a year or two earlier, been a few hundred dollars cheaper, maybe we'd be using a very different sort of computer today. But, probably not. The GUI/mouse interface has been an unbeatable monster for decades now. The windowing GUI may have just been delayed by a year or two. Nerds (myself included) kinda pine for the pre-mouse days now and then, but even so, I don't know a lot of people who use an exclusively text-based UI. I like a tiled window manager and a text editor that's most controllable via keyboard, but I also like having a mouse.

So basically if Google treated shopping the same way it treats porn, it wouldn't have been hit by that massive EU fine. I.e. stay out of recommending / promoting results itself.

If you have a systematic approach to achieve safety and counter terrorism, without monitoring citizens, then please state it briefly. I personally have no idea how to prevent without close monitoring.

Why shouldn't the burden be on the other side? Can you - can anyone - demonstrate that "close monitoring" actually makes it possible to prevent terrorism? That states will actually use it that way, when the threat of terror is so politically useful?

Because without making a strong case along those lines first, you can't even take the "I'll trade privacy for safety" position in good faith at all.

The 9/11 attackers were already subjects of surveillance when they attacked. The Boston Marathon bombers were already being closely monitored but were not stopped.

Disciplinarians, cops for example, have dreamed of omniscience since the dawn of time. The panopticon dates to the 1790s! Despite the fact that we come closer to a state of all-seeing every day, I'm not aware of any compelling evidence that it's actually turning out to be very useful to prevent violent crime or acts of terror.
Who doesn't think super competent badasses are cool? What's that got to do with porn?
Interesting. I read the comments and I did not see anyone saying "read a lot". For me, reading and taking your time to digest the stuff you read is the key to stay creative. Making bets in risky projects and trying to execute them too.
> the implication from which is that it was not as insecure after

I'm saying there is no specific implication without confirmation from the author as the statement can be taken either way, and any you think you see is more to do with your state of mind than the statement itself. It's a statement about what we know. We know something to be factually true prior to that date. Afterwards is open to debate, and is opinion. Making a statement about that the period we have facts for does not imply anything about the period we do not have facts for.

This is very very wrong. You should be hesitant to extrapolate so wildly from your bubble.

The timing and circumstances of when I started drinking means I've only ever drunk craft beer, but I'm also aware that where i live is not representative f the country. Craft beer has a 12% share of the US's beer market. "Overwhelming popularity" is just flat wrong.

a.k.a survivorship bias
A good rule of thumb that my college alcohol edu used was a 12 oz beer, 4 oz glass of wine, and 1.5 oz shot all equaled one drink, at 4,12,and 36% respectively. You'll obviously need to adjust for those numbers but it has always helped anchor me (even though I haven't had a 4% beer since college).
I am reminded of discussions about how "credit card companies will soon know exactly what we all eat and be able to predict our health because of it" where people rebutted that with "I pay cash for most of my produce at the local farmer's market."

There are people who aren't into porn at all. Porn watching tells you something about people who watch porn. It may tell you nothing at all about actual sex lives. As I understand it, most porn is consumed alone, as a substitute for sex with a partner. What people seek out under such circumstances may not be that representative of what works for them in a relationship.
Which is probably a good balance. Invest more time if you have it or want to, or run with the defaults.

I tried Hello Fresh and thought it was useful. As a capable cook, it still saved time I'd otherwise spend shopping (30 mins easily if you have a kid in tow) or wondering what to make (on nights I want to cook something new, I will spend 30+ minutes looking at cook books or recipe sites). Someone wanting a less hand-holdy experience could easily ignore the recipes and use it as a mystery box to invent from.
it doesn't have influence of 1/4 of the world's population. first of all, 2 billions might be pure humans but some of them are bots. second of all, I have facebook, so what? how does it influence me?

The article indicates that he has data from both pornhub and google. The interview questions jump between the two, but the questions about porn are mostly based on the pornhub data.

One thing I'm curious about is that the article implies he has demographic information (sex, income, etc) about the searchers and I don't know how google/pornhub would know that.

I would imagine the majority of searches are anonymous except for IP and whatever the browser gives up. But maybe he's only looking at logged-in data?
People have been getting wrongly denied entry to the U.S. for bad/factually-incorrect reasons for decades, probably ever since we had an immigration system.

Obviously immigration should do a better job on their false positive rates, and not just their false negative rates, but these are never going to go to zero. Someone probably made a clear mistake in this particular case, but without details who knows. For all we know there's some social media or blog post of his with something like a joke about harming he-who-shall-not-be-named.
In my experience it's still a far superior method for producing larger single page apps. Static typing, great components (e.g. data table, including custom-components-data-table, ...), incredible tooling, ridiculous amounts of libraries, incredible RPC, ...

What workflow ends up with a Customs and Border Patrol officer connecting that domain name to Stenberg's ESTA application?

Here's a guess: some blacklisted piece of software uses curl and credited "daniel@haxx.se" as required by its licence[1]. Daniel was then mistaken as a creator of that software, and his email address flagged for any ESTA applications that use it.

"2.3 Gas installation:

The LHPO runs only on propane, at full bottle pressure (that is, five to ten bars, depending on ambient temperature).

The LHPO may be run from either a bank of propane bottles feeding into a manifold and then proceeding along a main gas pipe to the organ, or from a single propane tank with either liquid or gas feed. If liquid feed, a gasifier must be provided with sufficient peak capacity (see below).

If a single tank, the tank must have at least a three ton filled capacity, to provide enough thermal mass for the required gas delivery rate (see below). The tank connection must be at least 1 1/2 inch inside pipe diameter, to provide for sufficient gas delivery rate.

If a multiple tank installation, at least 28, 33kg capacity bottles are needed. The bottles may not be all close packed into a rectangular array, but must be in one or two rows, with adequate air circulation around the bottle area to provide for heat transfer to the bottles.

If a liquid phase system and a gasifier are to be used, the system must be able to deliver the peak delivery rate (see below) for at least ten minutes continuously."
