The configuration is a really good question. The website doesn't allow any customization right now because it's so early -- so I assume these 30 initial shipments are people who've been in contact with Tesla directly about being the first batch.

Elon has said in the past that too much customization really put a damper on Model X, so I wouldn't be surprised if these are all nearly identical except for color. There's also no all wheel drive model yet (https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/845284390397665280) and therefore no "performance" option either.
True, gona start planning it out! Appreciate your comment much :)
Your comment is disingenuous, this was not last minute minor squabbling as you pretend, instead objections raised during the previous ballot (https://jcp.org/en/jsr/results?id=5959) were serious and long-standing (especially RedHat's position was not new) and delaying the project to address them is a good thing and the very reason the JCP exists, in the interests of the Java community.
No, no, and no.

ETA: That being said, I think those who campaigned the hardest against Jigsaw with technical arguments were wrongheaded (e.g. "Just do it like OSGi, it works fine.")
You're right. He does curse 2x in the show.
ICO doesn't have that power. They can prosecute people but only if they've deliberately breached the DPA and that doesn't seem to be the case here. The NHS should definitely hold the people responsible to account though.
That is pretty limited information. Talk to a good professor. he will gladly admit that his mind is not as nimble as it was once. maybe he will say things like hes glad he can still keep up and do research. mine told me this in front of an entire class just to drive the point home that 'the time is now'.
The meta-coin basically. You have to admit this is a very well designed scheme.
That seems to be a problem in the US, that people are so afraid of talking about taxes. It should be hard to be honest about it though, as one can make a calculation about how much people pay out of pocket and through company provided health care today, and compare this to how much it would cost in taxes instead.

I would probably have used VAT for this.
"""All of the business logic was in stored procedures. I've seen a stored procedure with triple nested cursors spanning 2000 lines. Our 'senior' developer would take weeks to make changes to this thing."""

I remember when this was the thing to do; to store as much as possible in stored procs. Fat server (the server here being the database server), thin client.

That has changed, and changed again, and no doubt it will be different in the future again. The problem with our profession is that it isn't always easy to determine which changes are actual progress, and which are a fad or fashion.

(Anecdotally: I also remember having to replace ~100 lines of Python with ~60 stored procs and views in Access. This was code that was very unsuitable to be done in a database. The Python code did the job fast, and was readable and understandable; the Access queries were NOT, and it took them minutes to do the same thing. But, management considered Python "unmaintainable" because it was "an obscure language"... so they preferred the Access "solution".)

Cryptocurrencies require significantly more power to verify a single transaction[1]. The ability to scale to a meaningful size does not exist now. They need to improve efficiency by 3-4 orders of magnitude to be competitive.

Yeah, it's fun to stick to abstract design principles, until an important dependency in your project refuses to play ball, in a way that cannot be trivially fixed by simply subclassing something and calling it a day. In a language like Java you essentially have three options - submit an issue and wait months (or years) 'till it gets resolved, fork the project now (if open source) and deal with costs of supporting your own version, or just poke at an appropriate private static variable somewhere and have a working version deployed in an hour. I know which one I prefer.

This seems to be based on prior usage, so causation vs correlation comes into question. And I'm not saying this at it is used on reddit, conservatives most definitely would be highly less likely to take psychedelics.

Not to say that this study is uninteresting or useless though, I think there is a lot to be learned in this area, and I would argue that it would be very much in the best interests of Democrats (if that's truly what they are, I'm not so sure) to decriminalize these sorts of studies. Personally, I happen to believe that most Democrats and Republicans are essentially the same people wearing different costumes.

>"P value is a measure of error (And not a probability but maybe one kind of likelihood), not evidence, how likely it is we are seeing the result of a chance"

Nope, please stop trying to "help" people understand p-values without understanding them yourself. Reminds me of this just a few days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14646844

Honestly, most of the problem is people who don't know what they are talking about teaching statistics/science to each other... They have created an insane vortex of misinformation and ignorance that keeps sucking in new areas of research.

PS:
If you or someone you know is doing research and don't recognize almost unbelievably huge problems with the way things are done, you are most likely part of the problem.
SPOILERS

> the resolution of the omar character in the last seasons of the wire was incredibly anti-climactic and just downright weird. I understand they got the rug pulled out and had to quick wrap up the show but that was really just the worst and most useless bookend to his character arc...

That's just it. In the streets, there aren't heroes and villains. Just everyday people who are in the game, and those who are not. And if you're in the game, something as normal as going to a 1-stop shop can end in murder.

I loved that for Bodie, they let him go out in blaze of glory. Deciding to hold his corner in defiance.

Both characters were given the type of ending that fit best with their arcs. Omar had enough epic shootouts that one more would have been cliche.
I think this one is my favorite:

Physical attractiveness causes better treatment in society, higher income, more friends, and other social advantages. These would also contribute to better health.
100% radical honesty, with yourself first, and then others.

Prereq- Have significant money saved, so that you'll have breathing room and confidence if it doesn't work out. For me, not being beholden to a given job/client has given me the confidence to just do my best and not fret too much about how I'm perceived.

1. As an hourly consultant, imposter syndrome has been tough. When clients pay large bill rates for an expert in a certain area, they are looking for an expert. Whereas an employer might mentor you and help you learn, that's not what clients do. I'm not sure if I'm an expert or not, but being ~100% honest during the proposal and delivery phase gives myself mental acceptance. I just need to have the skills and experiences that I told them I have (which of course I do have)! If I recognize that those skills and experiences turn out not to be enough, I'll be 100% honest with myself and the client at that point as well.

2. Today, you are as good as you'll be today. Just do your best. If that's not good enough for your coworkers/clients/boss, then the opportunity is probably not right for you either.

3. Always be close to 100% honest with what you know and what you don't know. Most people overstate their skills, but it's usually pretty apparent. Being truthful makes you special.

4. For social, project management, communication decisions, etc I often think "What would a true professional do?" (maybe even substitute with someone amazing you've worked with). If you just do what the best person would do, others perceive you as that type of person.

There will always be smarter people. You probably overestimate how much most people actually know. I still very much feel imposter syndrome, but it hopefully doesn't affect too much in actuality.*

*I actually feel imposter syndrome writing this. WTF do I know about this topic?

>> There has to be balance so that medical science can move forward at a reasonable rate.

No there doesn't. If I don't want my personal information being provided to Google by the NHS it shouldn't happen. In a country where private healthcare isn't an option for most, the only option (the NHS) shouldn't be giving personal data to private, foreign companies, in breach of the law. 'It'll make my job easier' is awful reasoning for violating privacy and the law.
True, but at least the news cycle made it seem like companies raised formal objections at a late stage.
While I agree with you regarding zero interest loans for green(er) alternatives...

What makes you think coal only has a 5 to 10 year viable economic life span? If the world starts moving toward green(er) alternatives won't coal become cheaper?
It's solvable in many other ways. There's no rule in algebra that states each individual variable must be a different number. Thus, every variable = 0 then the equation is solved.
Yes, I'm prepared to defend any design decision I have all day if I have to. I like discussing / arguing things because someone else might have thought of something I didn't consider. It's about making a good product, not about who wins. I use the pro/con model. That's probably lost on most people, especially defensive ones. I get aggravated by "because I said so," too. When you're older, you don't get dismissed as much if at all.

My mentor was a huge arguer, that's probably where I got it from. He'd start talking louder and spittle would come out at me and everything. It was ugly, but I got used to it. We'd go at it for hours, but we both knew when we came up with the right decision and were receptive to it. I like to think I'm quite a bit more tactful than he is though.

>Agreed, as long as 'oddball' means 'dynamic/customer-specific' and not 'we're too lazy to design a schema for this' ;)

Oh god, I suffer over schema design decisions more than I should, but sometimes, relational just doesn't fit what I'm doing. What's really helped is I got stuck doing reports for a huge schema my 2nd two years and I really saw what crappy design could do to performance. My favorite is when a schema has missing foreign keys on 80% of the tables. It's like they discovered foreign keys 3/4 of the way through the project and didn't bother to retrofit them.
I don't believe there's anything that would prevent that in Ruby, though I'm sure the Forth way would be more elegant.

Ask HN: Most important KPIs for first 100 customers
For several past projects I've struggled a bit to determine what should be the most important things to focus on. Should it be (new) visitors, conversion rate, app/website usage, retention, user satisfaction, all of those..

I'm guessing that on the one hand it would be best to keep tabs on everything, but at the same time that causes you the lose focus. At least I've notived that I'm most productive when I focus on one thing at a time.
An alternative would be to regularly switch between the different KPIs (Key Performance Indicators, I'm using the term loosely here).

So, what do you consider the most important KPIs for the first 100 users (and which tools do you use to track them)?
AFAIK you still won't get direct file links this way - only links to a landing page, from which you still have to initiate the download. Being able to get a direct link to file (the kind that works with e.g. wget, or as a src attribute of an <img> tag) was the most useful feature of the Public folder.

The reason it is called "the" great filter is similar to the sort of thinking that this PDF is attempting to debunk. If you optimistically assumed that the early Fermi terms are likely to be high, that therefore many civilizations must have gotten at least as far as ours, but there are still no aliens in the stars, then the logical conclusion is that there must be something standing between where we are now and galactic civilization, hence, the Great Filter.

If on the other hand the early terms are much lower than expected, as this PDF is discussing, then the sum total of them could be considered the "Great Filter" and we could be past it. It's fine to just lump them together from our point of view, since at the moment we don't have the data to figure out which gate is "really" the determinative one.

Wandering down my own thoughts here: The Copernican Principle, or perhaps better termed in modern parlance the Copernican Heuristic, that we are nothing particularly special, has had a good run. But it is just a heuristic, and one whose adherence has arguably been driven more by a science v. religion feud than logic or data, and whose underlying logic in the past 50ish years has metastasized into "Some religious people I don't like think Man is unique, they're wrong about everything, therefore Man is not unique in any way." But lately the Copernican Heuristic has been showing a lot of strain. Our solar system may not be unique, but it is increasingly looking like it may indeed be unusual, for instance. The Rare Earth arguments have never gone away and I think a lot of the dismissal of that idea has also come from "Religious people like the idea of the Rare Earth and some of them are arguing for it, religious people are wrong about everything, therefore Earth is not rare." [1], because scientifically they look as good as anything else on the subject (namely "those arguments seem to fit our lack of data as well as anything else", which is a pretty weak endorsement). And per the PDF under discussion, a lot of the universe really starts to make more sense when you start to seriously consider the possibility that, yes, we may in fact be very unusual, if not perhaps truly unique.

[1]: Those are not the only arguments here, nor are they the best; I'm just saying that it is my subjective sense that the debate over the past few decades has often been very skewed by the underlying presence of this argument, even when not necessarily spoken. It is my perception that this debate has often been had under unspoken ground rules where all the discussion must occur in such a way as to ensure that the religious people are unable to point to anything as evidence for their side. It... doesn't make for the best conditions to do science under.
