>Libertarians never can describe what a free market really is.

With a small amount of effort using google, you can find plenty of web pages describing basic libertarian philosophy - it really isn’t some kind of mystery.

>...Is anti-theft law a government regulation? Seems to me that pure anarchy is the only real free market.

(Since you asked, I would guess that most libertarians would say that the basic goal of a free market is to allow for voluntary exchanges between two parties which leave both better off. In order for this to happen, there has to be rule of law, property rights, enforcement of contracts, etc. And if you are wondering, libertarians likely also think that drugs and electrical devices, etc should be safe - they may just have different ideas on how to achieve that safety. Just because someone is opposed to prohibition on various drugs or opposed to laws against prostitution etc etc doesn’t mean they are proposing an anarchistic war of all against all.)
Hi, mediocre programmer here.

OOP is the most popular paradigm because it works the best for the greatest number of people and projects. It's natural to break large systems into component parts recursively, and to let components have their own state.

What alternative did you have in mind? Functional programming?
Towers tend to hide cords behind them. This is shown on a desk next to a monitor, as if it is being used with the monitor. It is photographed at an angle that would show cords if they were present. It looks ridiculous at least.

The monitor shown may be an All-in-One, but then what is the computer doing there?
Or you just coat the metal with some protection layer. Seems a bit absurd to be declaring some problems as unsolvable when we're just getting started.
An argument can be made that the system python is for system things, not end user things.

If you want the latest python, just use the python-build script from here: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/tree/master/plugins/python-bu...

And then ./python-build -v 3.6.1 /opt/python-3.6.1 and you're done.

You'll have to manage your paths manually for your shell/terminal though, this is basically what you'll need to do, though this is for perl but can be easily adapted: http://tinyurl.com/y8h7lbt2

And acid
Well, it modifies greet in place.

And this:

greet :: String -> String

Wouldn't really be writable by a human, because:

x -> f x

Can represent any two expressions, for example:

(addmatches! greet :chef-matches {:before :beginning}
((list? x) :sym) (comment Boolean -> Symbol)
(list (apply greet x)) (comment Function -> Recursive...))

addmatches! isn't a separate function. Basically, at compile time, a macro is given the raw untyped tokens from Clojure's parser, and can run all of Clojure's features against them. The *match! macros don't exist at runtime.
This looks hilariously ugly compared to the now three-year-old Mac mini.

Squatting is great if you need to lift a felled tree, but not to escape a big cat chasing you. Learn to squat, but please also learn to jump.
Short Answer: Self-awareness

You will need to become very comfortable at being aggressive, yet very calculated.

Pick your battles.. Empower your team to deal with the others.

NO ONE LIKES A SHIT TALKER... just don't do it.. don't entertain it.

If you are a KISS ass... ("Insert your own thoughts").

More meetings !== more productivity..

You should only be racing yourself, but glance to see your surrounding every so often, safety first.

Enjoy what you do.. if you don't like the company.. leave.

Build genuine relationships with boundaries, the world isn't so nice.

Don't say you know something when you don't. NO MATTER WHAT.. don't talk if you have too, its called having standards.

Paint a vivid path in your mind, and use OneNote to prevent you from loosing your mind. Organization is key, which isn't the same as being OCD.

Respect your time, if you said 8am, get there at 8am, make it 7:50pm if your fly like that.

You need to experience wars and understand what it means to resolve that trauma, everyone deals with trauma... resolve yours no matter the degree. Your unresolved projections build destructive cycles.. This is your responsibility as an adult even if you don't now what this means.

Your brain is a system that is continually attempting to reach equilibrium, be aware of this. One hemisphere is trying to hold on the current paradigm and the other is trying to convince the other that it's paradigm is more emotionally beneficial. Old dogs don't learn new tricks?

When your mind feels defensive or wants to protect itself, chemicals are released, which put your brain in a more primitive state. You are now more influenced by the other foreign neurochemical interactions you are participating in, you in control? All the time? Yeah me too :)

Our brains are smart (you and the rest of the world haven't figured the damn thing out yet), and cannot handle the idea that an action wasn't completely their action to being with. And that's call backward rationalization, you smart silly goose.

Make sure your emotions are balanced, and that includes excitement... I do not mean stop partying (loosen up).. BE BALANCED.

There are some comments that you should just keep yourself, leave the weird shit for those that accept you and just ignore you when needed.

Every interaction is another stroke on the canvas, don't forget to washes your brushes.

Stop asking everyone how you make it. Listen and make sure you make it.

You need to manage the politics without talking to anyone about the politics. You do not include these skills on your resume.

*Oh yeah, did I say BE SELF-AWARE? It's a life style not a thought process :)
isn't that highly subjective?
Then how about Basque speakers, who almost all speak Spanish? Or Moroccans and Tunisian, whose urban educated populations usually code-switch between Arabic and French?
> Kentucky and New Jersey, for instance, have shifted from bail toward personalized risk assessments

The cost of the New Jersey implementation, has been offensively expensive, to some. Lawyers charge by the hour. The new bail system requires additional bail screening/hearings. The inevitable delays (daily) have run up lawyer bills. It's assumed that this will improve with better processes and routines. Inefficiency, incompetence and incompatible systems being shoved together have led to a strange brew that costs 1-3 million (per court) annually there.

The ideological question is whether the state or private industry should profit from incarceration of suspects and what bar should be set for temporary release pending a court date.

Right now, the bar (bail) is financial and a judge has to be arbitrary with regard to assessed risk at arraignment. Working within the known bail system, in california, some judges will assign amounts knowing what bail bonds will cost. This has led to a strange inflation of bond costing and a glut of bounty hunters.

> And as a counterpoint, Snap has not crossed the chasm, despite a $25b IPO.

I think it is a bit too early to call this one. I'd rather give Evan Spiegel and his team a few more quarters to see what they've got in store against Facebook now with IPO money in the bank.

> And arguably, neither has Twitter, despite over $2bn in revenue and being public for years.

Granted you qualified your statement with "arguably", but why do you think this when there is no corollary for "tweeting" outside of Twitter's service? If Twitter goes belly up today, who will step in their place?
Interesting! Too bad already bought a 1080Ti. Definitely good news for future purchases, though.
I used to read medical reports all day long as part of my job. This included surgical reports for when some implanted joint or such had failed, often for the umpteenth time.

I don't think we are "just getting started here."

Also, my understanding is that Edgar Caycee, a psychic, was the first person to suggest that a nail or screw be used to hold a bone in place so it could mend when it was failing to do so. I find it ironic that this has been so widely embraced by conventional medicine. It was suggested by a guy in a trance and we ran with it and now when you try to point out that it leads to metal poisoning, failures, infections, well, I'm somehow the one not being scientific enough or something.
Interesting, I thought Spanish and Portuguese are extremely similar, so that a native speaker of one should understand most of the other.
> It does take longer to acquire two languages than one, Dr. Hoff said, and that, again, comes back to the exposure.

“A child who is learning two languages will have a smaller vocabulary in each than a child who is only learning one; there are only so many hours in the day, and you’re either hearing English or Spanish,” Dr. Hoff said. The children will be fine, though, she said.

This is the first time I've seen an expert go on record saying that there is some downside (perhaps temporary) of raising a child bilingual. It's all the rage to do so (and I am currently doing so, I'll admit), and everyone loves to talk about how a study showed that bilingual speakers are better at this or that.

But it's important to consider that there is some downside, and for some children - perhaps those without a huge vocabulary to begin with - it might not be the best thing to do.

C was also designed to compile in one pass, hence the need for forward references. The preprocessor was extra overhead, though.

Also, from my recollection, Turbo Pascal was not just faster than C compilers. It was also faster than other Pascal compilers. And pretty much any other computer regardless of language. That was part of its appeal.
Breaking up a problem recursively into stateful components is completely orthogonal to OOP.
The better (read: twice as expensive) provider in Germany does that as well and I rarely have a problem even in crowded events (haven't tried at Oktoberfest). To be precise for well-known large events all networks erect temporary towers but inferior ones cheap out on capacity. On the other hand, Oktoberfest has an order of magnitude more visitors than ACL in a very small area. Probably physics will limit what you can do.
It is. This design may appeal to people who like cheap routers and 80's gold watches.
Your analogy doesn't really work. TVs in similar price ranges have very similar features and pros/cons.

There are many good keyboards and mice out there -- waterproof & mechanical & backlit / waterproof & with precise sensors & backlit -- which cost less than Razer's and are more durable and with better quality overall.

It's very natural to compare products of different brands and quality and build expectations on what features one can expect for the $N price.
The OP said "Can we find a way to help law enforcement police at the very least the really, really bad stuff," I think you're eliding his entire concern when you just say "I'm confident they'll solve them"

OK, so a 2x more expensive NUC with emphasis on design and HP-specific modularity. I think Intel planned custom lids as well and MSI Cubi has a storage expander, so HP probably took cues from them. I personally like these super mini PCs, for office work you don't need anything else these days.
Yes, and if you are just starting out, half squats with no weight are a perfectly valid exercise.

> What alternative did you have in mind?

My favorite question. Have a look at the sidebar in this link [1] for starters (by 'alternative' you didn't mean you expect me to advocate complete abolishment of OOP did you?). I'd say being familiar with at least 5-10 diverse paradigms from that list works wonders.

I think that's overstating it a bit. I went to an Ingress anomaly in Brooklyn last summer and everything worked fine. It wasn't the smoothest run event ever, and they could have used more staff, but it was an enjoyable time.

There's something different about what they were trying to do with Pokemon Go that made it suck. They don't have experience with these yet. And if someone made long distance travel plans, just getting your entry ticket refunded doesn't begin to make up for your loss.
Yeah, that’s a common misconception, but the reality is different. Just because they’re in the same linguistic group (Romance-derived languages) doesn’t mean they’re the same.

It’s like saying that german, dutch and english (Germanic languages) are extremely similar… =)

And if the UI doesn't (yet) look good, they think your development is crap. A problem I've run into.

Yes, and if you write it like that, the output of `python --version` has direct consequences for the remainder of the script.
I have zero issues paying for top quality. I believe it's fair for you as an OEM to charge more if you're better than the competition.

My issues start when the supposed top quality is surpassed by easy-to-find Chinese products on Amazon costing 40% of Razer's price. And when I say "surpassed", I mean it in literally every way. The keyboard I now use has better switches, is extremely realiable, her anti-ghosting capabilities are predictable and never failed, it survived spills of water, sugary drinks and hot drinks without ever missing a keystroke, and is still going strong after almost a year without any signs of wear and tear. Hell it didn't even get a scratch when I dropped a knife and fork on it!

I appreciate the DIY advice, thank you. I feel all of us have to become DIY experts over time because when OEMs see fit to push planned obsolence even in products like a keyboard and a mouse, we have to respond in kind -- repair your stuff and refuse the give money when the OEM tells you to.

> maximizing your English skill is imo a better investment of finite cognitive resources.

I wonder in which extent this apply to programming languages.
They diverged from a common language, so it's possible for a reader of one language to understand the written form of the other.

However the spoken form diverges much faster than the written form, to the point where it's completely impossible to have an oral conversation.

I personally treat profundity as synonymous with a large first derivative of compressibility (see Schmidhuber). Something is a profound insight if it allows to compress information much more than before, e.g. by explaining many phenomena with a simple rule (see physics). In this case, there is not much to compress. The two phenomena have closely resembling spatial features, but one is explained by the gravitational force and the other one is likely explained by evolutionary necessity. Maybe one can find some superficial relations via scale-free networks etc., but my expectations that there is anything to gain from that are very low, just because of how different the underlying mechanisms are (matter moving by attractive forces vs biological stuff that needs to communicate efficiently such that its superstructure does not die until it procreates or until its descendants are sufficiently autonomous for self-replication or to execute the adaptations shaped by some symbiotic, altruistic or group-selective evolutionary correction signals, if any).
I'm at the first job I've ever had that didn't do daily standups and it's liberating. I've never been more productive at work.

Maybe once a week my manager comes by and asks me how something is going. I give him a high level sketch and a time estimate. He goes along on his way after that.
The pronounciation is key here: the Portuguese language "swallows" the words, which makes it difficult to follow for a Spanish speaker; on the contrary Spanish (mainly) is easy to get for a Portuguese speaker.
FYI, vertical jump more or less cannot be trained. It is almost entirely genetic. Either you can jump high or you can't.

Also, I think many people underestimate how useful strength is in most aspects of life. From picking up groceries, to home improvement projects, to wrangling kids, to getting yourself up off the toilet (a serious problem for older people). Strength makes all of these easier.
> A spaniard who doesn't speak catalan won't understand 95% of a normal convo

I don't know if I'd go that far. I just youtubed catalan and would say I understood about 75-80% of what this guy is saying. [1]

Also, I mainly meant that statement ironically :) Catalan is its own language, its just funny to me that "dialect" is a negative term, language is not, and usually the big country with the military dictates which provinces speak a "language" and which ones are speaking a "dialect".

USB Type C is only the connector specification, and it offers very little guarantees about what protocols are actually supported through the connector. External graphics would require a USB Type C port with support for Thunderbolt 3, which is an entirely separate specification from the USB 3.1 spec that's usually the baseline for such ports, and offers 40 Gbit/s in bandwidth vs USB 3.1 Gen2's 10 Gbit/s (and Gen1, which is more commonly used, is only 5 Gbit/s).

I couldn't find any mentions of Thunderbolt in its specs, so I don't believe external graphics is a possibility here.

Then consider not Spain, but its former colonies. In Paraguay, Bolivia, northern Argentina and some other countries it's common for people to speak two languages. The one native to the region and the one the conquistadores used.

In Africa it's the same thing, but the European language is more likely to be French than Spanish.
Bruteforcing is totally doable because in practice the unique identifiers broadcasted by these tags are allocated sequentially. I built an AVRFID a few years ago to bruteforce the HID ProxCard II RFIDs at work (45 bits of data: 20-bit mfg ID, 8-bit facility ID, 16-bit tag ID, 1 odd parity bit). Starting from my ID, and incrementing it one by one, it only took seconds to find many other valid IDs that were unlocking doors of various restricted areas. Imagine a disgruntled employee who has his legit RFID and is looking to access other restricted areas to which he normally doesn't have access... bruteforcing works perfectly fine for him.

Ok, but how do I do it??
I'm a native English speaker and not bilingual so feel like an outsider looking in here but this is an area I find interesting. For one, I kind of wish I was bilingual. I suspect this is much easier to achieve as a non-English speaker for several reasons:

- The pervasiveness of English as a first or second language

- As much as people complain about English, in the transition from Old English to Middle English when English was not the court language of England, English lost a lot of what I like to call the grammatical bullshit (eg gender of nouns, cases, agreement of case, number, adjective and article and so on).

Anyway, this article made one claim that resonates with my observations:

> But parents should not assume that young children’s natural language abilities will lead to true grown-up language skills without a good deal of effort.

How many people do you know that have done 12 years of Italian or French or German or Spanish through school and can maybe remember how to count to 10? I know quite a few.

Another claim the article makes is that bilingual children are less fluent in each language than a child who only knows one language. I've often wondered if this is the case for a similar reason: language ability seems to largely be a function of exposure and there's only so much time to go around.

If true, I wonder how this has affected the development of English-speaking countries, which are particularly mono-lingual. Is it an advantage? A disadvantage? A bit of both?
Funnily enough, I'm on page 30 right now.
I find it a bit difficult to believe that he was actually "lost". For example, after hitting "12" why didn't he just live forever with Calypso?
It really stresses me out how folks have equated PoW algorithms in a chain with a general Byzantine Fault solution.

They haven't, and Bitcoin essentially lives and dies by the proposition that it is more valuable to the majority of miners alive than dead. The instant this is not true, there is a potential for a majority of miners to defraud the system and extract value until the value of the currency drops to 0.

And of course, the damage to the system just 2-3 colluding miners could do if they wanted is pretty significant, especially if the goal was DoS instead of theft.

In the EU you usually have to learn two additional languages to your native language. It's not hard to find German, French or Spanish speakers outside their respective countries.

It's not like English is the only useful language.
