As dumb as it may sound, the lack of a real spiritual successor to MacPaint is something that differentiates Windows from OSX in a small way for me.

It's not the end of the world, but it's annoying. Like copying a transparent PNG in Windows only to paste something with a black background and no alpha.

OSX's lack of a Paint equivalent makes me think, "Windows does it better."
Bandwidth amount wise - really not that much.

Looking at my history (pretty active player) I've used about 184 MB since June 24th (I am not as active on weekends so for the sake of this example I actually played 18 days out of the month averaged about the same per day). On average that means about 10.2 MB per day of playing (looking at the graph, however, I would say I used about 20 MB the day of the event as I was out for about twice as much time that day).

I don't think that is considered a lot
This is not a basic problem, but it obviously stems from one. When you only get the apps that the platform vendor can be arsed to provide, you'll find that their priorities are not your priorities.

Your definition for capitalism is correct, but might be missing the key point:

> Capitalism is the use of markets as the primary method of resource allocation within a society.

http://www.americanteeth.org/2015/06/21/why-i-m-a-capitalist...

I lost a game of Go to the guy who wrote this. He's a total socialist, but he _gets it_. Capitalism is just using markets, and when he and I use that word we just mean that. But when many progessive-types use that word, they mean all of the perceived evils and unjustice that coming along with that system.
> The offender could claim whatever mod he made wasn't intended to cause harm to others. Then you have to prove intent, which can be difficult.

Or you have to have laws which cover acts done with mental states short of intent to cause harm like (in ascending I order of seriousness in existing law—and all of these are already covered for acts that get people killed) criminal negligence, recklessness, and depraved indifference to human life.

Of course, it's a lot less difficult to convince even a criminal jury of intent than people in HN often seem to think; legal proof, even to meet the “beyond a reasonable doubt” standard, is far less than logical proof.
Obviously you would need to have a blanket ban on overly large corporations operating in your country and on goods and services produced by overly large corporations being imported into your country. You couldn't apply it only to domestic corporations.

Nobody pays you more based on how long your commute is.

Somebody has never negotiated a salary... The answer is yes, a lot more, you just go "This commute is unbearable and I won't move to your stupid neighborhood so if you want me, pay me 20k more" (not a joke, I did that, for a 45 mins commute).

Just think about all the stuff you've missed out by being so closed minded and not saying it, many people will pay you more if you complain about your commute, that's a fact.
It's not like private enterprise is doing such a great job.
What works for me with Hugo (because I'm already using these tools all day anyway) is to keep the site in a Github repository.

Then when I make a change it triggers TravisCI to do a full site rebuild. (Takes longer to install Hugo than to actually run it)

Then once it's built, Travis has built in support for uploading to S3, and away we go.

Doesn't work for everyone, but it's really smooth and simple for me, I can even just go to Github, create a new page, and save it right there from the site. Which means I can edit from any device I want.

Thank you for your comment, yes I know I did it in a very dirty way, I don't really care about the landing page actually, more about the apps themselves as I'm a mobile developer.

I'd be curious to see how much traffic can a landing page bring though.
Sigh. Do you think I was suggesting that emergency rooms in Canada should adopt a FIFO approach?

> Once you have you'll quickly realise that the 'long wait times' narrative is complete propaganda FUD.

This is a decent example of the typical Canadian attitude I was referring to, blind refusal to even acknowledge any issues, such as the well documented long waiting times for non-emergency procedures, as well as the outright refusal to treat ailments deemed "not important enough" by your doctor.
If You Liked SQL,You'll Love XQUERY (2005)
Having used a lot of markdown and reStructuredText, I can see the arguments that the lack of common standards in markdown is a huge pain. There's still a lot of variety between markdown implementations and while Common Mark and open GFM standards are helping to a point, you still can't always count on a markdown engine to have things as basic as definition list support or HTML anchor support (linkable ids for sub-headings), and there are still some weird subtle implementation differences in those things.

There's also a lot to be said about the way that reStructuredText provides standard plugin spaces in the markup. While it may look over verbose at first glance, it is a great thing when you start to pick up that a lot of reStructuredText is based on the same plugin markup and there's a consistent way to work with new plugins. Something like that could be hugely useful to Markdown, and probably could have stymied some of the complications in standardizing things like Common Mark and GFM had that consideration been baked in from early on.
I would argue those systems are designed by humans using advanced tools. The algrithm that designs the engine block doesn't decide it should be designing an engine block - humans did.

Can someone explain how this is an improvement on phone-based, non-SMS 2FA?

This solution seems ripe for exploitation by putting your passwords (if you store your passwords on your computer) and 2FA on the same machine.
Some out of network providers send bills to patients but don't collect. Some even tell the patients not to worry about it, although I believe this may be illegal.

In theory, the high reimbursements are so out of network doctors can get paid market rates. There's also a fair amount of propaganda from insurance companies on this issue which makes the reality hard to discern. Yet they pay 10-20% on average of the bills they receive, so it's just another way to punish the patient while both the insurance company and doctor are taken care of.
It should also be noted that this is from /r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit. I suspect the strategy is a bit like using poor/crazy coding practices for "job security". They basically serialized their work into spreadsheets in an attempt to overwhelm the company into hiring them.
Well GPP is just saying that 'calorie restriction' is not proven to 'help you live a longer life', irrespective of the IF context.

As for IF, as you say, it is basically not proven to do anything (no 'phenomenon' at all). Simplest and most logical reason for success is because it helps people stick to their diet, by arbitrarily restricting the window of eating.

Opinion I read on r/leangains is that some people find it easier to e.g. just eat two 600-800 calorie meals within their IF window, rather than sticking to a diet that involves 3-4 smaller ~300-400 calorie meals, spread out through the day, none of which feel 'satisfying'.
Yes, has anyone looked at the quality of the DAC in the 'dongle'?

> It works in every other developed nation in the world

The cost side works in every other developed nation? Surely you're aware of how much more expensive health care costs are in the US, so what might you be referring to?
In short: A startup is taking control of open source editor plugins relevant to their product.

I admire their cleverness.

If it were me: I'd create an extension interface for completion libraries to accept third party plugins. I'd stop at putting in a third party stuff in by default. A sufficiently good plugin API for python-autocomplete shouldn't require it even to know about Kite.

That said, I don't think Kite should be disallowed. If they have a secret sauce that they think can empower completion plugins, give them an API to plugin to.

It's not in the spirit of open source to shut the door on proprietary solutions (IMO). Transparency should be paramount. Normally most Linux users opt-in to using proprietary/blob software/drivers one way or another anyway. Open source projects routinely maintain relationships with vendors (NVIDIA, Intel). It doesn't necessarily mean evil is at work.

Though, as someone who's struggled with the performance and reliability of completion tools, I don't know if I'd personally opt to outsource that functionality. I'd wait and see if our current tools get better.
Large employer group plans already operated along those lines prior to the ACA.
I used to do work re-writing music for tv shows when they went to syndication in other countries. I did it in hopes that it would lead to bigger gigs but that was naive/silly in hindsight. It's probably been 10 years since I did one of those gigs, but I'm sure others are out there still doing it for music, movies and games.

Is that actually a thing that either site will do? Especially considering that there appears to be an ongoing legal dispute involving the domain?
I tested some of the most popular Kali Linux compatible cards against each other here[0]. Note that there is a version 2 of the popular and cheap TP-Link TL-WN722N which DOES NOT work like the version 1 and should be avoided.

All of these cards are "known to just work" on linux at least.

Is there a way we can quantify that? Is there any publicly available geospatial database of buildings sorted by type (residential, grocery store, etc.)?
The improvement is accessibility. It's less secure than physical 2FA but more so than just 1FA. As the article says, "for many, the security of software-based U2F is sufficient and helps to mitigate against many common attacks such as password dumps, brute force attacks, and phishing related exploits."
> I can think of no other business where you agree to have work done without an agreed upon price.

You can't really compare this with other businesses. Unless you want the doctors to stop the moment they hit your negotiated price (like lets say a building constructor would).

However you should be able to get a rough quote for the procedure (assuming no unexpected complications).

And I agree with you in general, US health care is a total scam (very high-quality to be fair).
> a very simple way to add context to my claims

I didn't ask for context. I asked for evidence.

> Does my flimsy opinion hold water yet?

Personally, I agree or understand with a lot of what you're saying. Where I differ is your statement that there is or should be lots of interest in these things by the 'mass market'.

That makes about as much sense to me in 2017 as it would be to go back to 1983 and suggest people really need to toggle switch in a boot loader to understand how a personal computer works.

You don't really[1] need to install this, if you're using Firefox. Just set the prefs 'security.webauth.u2f' and 'security.webauth.u2f_enable_softtoken' to true.

Have you tried stripline as a benchmark? It's analytic solution for infinite ground planes, so plotting error vs simulation time (mesh refinement) gives nice accuracy vs time curves. Jim Rautio did this for Sonnet a few years ago, and I then used it to benchmark several solvers. Really just to show that 2.5D solvers gives much better accuracy vs. simulation time than 3D, for planar problems.

I use AWR (Axiem, Anaylst), CST, and Sonnet. I'm satisfied with accuracy; need more speed. It's at a point where material and manufacturing tolerances are more of an issue, so I need to run parameter sweeps, yield analysis, etc. So multi-threading, GPU acceleration, and distributed computing help that.

Working on a thick patch antenna today. Axiem (2.5D infinite substrate) said 1.57 GHz. Analyst says 1.51 GHz. It actually measured 1.53 GHz. That's a 3% error on an 8% 12 dB RL bandwidth antenna. Those simulated results are after mesh convergence, so finer meshing won't help.

So I use 2-3 solvers on a single problem. It's important that the geometry translation between them be quick and easy. That's where AWR comes into play; everything plugs into it. 3D solver (modeling) is horrible for pushing polygons during the design process. 2.5D solvers are awesome for this, but then you need to sometimes push the geometry to 3D solver.
I think one of the problems with the font rendering on windows is that most fonts are primarily made on Macs and tweaked until they look all right on using that particular renderer.

If netflix found that the majority of VPN connections were to avoid region locking, would you agree that blocking VPNs to enforce region locking makes sense?

Because to me, it makes sense.
I don't understand how people so smart can be fooled by the idea that automation will permanently take jobs away from the economy.

Jobs will shift, but thinking we need cash handouts for people to live on (because all the jobs will just POOF, disappear!) is just naive. Just as farmers & bowling-pin-setters found new jobs in the past, taxi-drivers will find new jobs in the future.

Zuckerberg is right that people should be more entrepreneurial, but I see no reason why the labor transformation we're undergoing now will reduce overall jobs in the market. It never has.
Sounds like a management issue. This is like designing public benches so that people can't sleep there - a passive-aggressive "solution" that really just avoids the problem.

Why not let people buy the "waste" food at the purchase cost? Or just you know, fire the people who waste it on purpose for misconduct?
For sure - these investments need to be made together, otherwise it won't work.

Say we build more housing but it's across the bay. Those bridges and BART can only transport so many people.

That said, I do think that transportation investment is lacking and should be increased.
> which would eliminate abuse on the billing side, at least to the insured

How does single payer fix that? If the hospital gives you a bill and won't negotiate down, how does the government "fix" this? Which is kind of what my question is: were specifics given in the ACA on how that problem will be fixed?
Likely an unpopular opinion but the idea of him winning in 2020 isn't as far fetched as some liberals think.
Most ANNs are not similar enough to biological NNs to attempt to recreate these structures.

The authors of SB 562 chose not to include a concrete proposal at all. (It was pretty clearly a placeholder that was intended to be amended into concrete form that was passed by the Senate to keep it alive for timeline related reasons; the real work would have had to occur in the Assembly version and then gone back to the Senate.)

Probably nothing crazy but I reflect on my life. I started working as a security officer after high school. I thought: I'm going to move up in the ranks and make good money. I knew everything and I was ready to take on the world.

While my pay wage was something of a joke, although at some sites it was more than others, but 4 years later and a penny raise (boss probably did it as a joke), I realized, I was stuck in a dead end job with no opportunity to grow.

I went back to college, having no idea where I would end up. I continued working security jobs in order to help me pay my way through college. I was interested psychology (which I have my degree in) and eventually wanted to do something with career counseling -- helping college students find their place or helping people who decided to have a career change later in life.

During my latter years in college, I got out of security and worked for student life, which only paid some minimum wage, but I got to do a series of jobs such as orientation leader, secretarial work, and even campus card (I took photos of everyone), and even worked at a liquor store in downtown Chicago for a year.

Anyways, after college, I moved to Israel for a year, where I taught English to elementary and middle school students, and although it was nice, I wasn't very interested in working with kids. This nonprofit organization needed a website so I volunteered to do it for them and loved it. It gave me some insight into web design.

I moved back home and I was desperate for a job with no money and student loans to pay off... so I did the only thing I knew to do: I applied across the boards on Craigslist. I figured I had a college degree now, who wouldn't hire me? Only one company responded, a software company that licensed out their autobody shop software, a program created in Visual Basic 6.0. I had experience in it personally, having taught myself when I was like 11 or 12, but not any experience professionally, but they took a chance on me, and I worked there for a year and a half. I was hired to make the UI more friendly and fix bugs.

After that, tired of a tyrant boss, I moved on to full-time web designer for a Solar Panel company, working in Flash and did the animations for them that displayed on a kiosk for companies in their lobbies. At the same time, I also got hired as a web designer for the media (Solar Panel company on location from 8 AM - 5 PM, media company remotely from 6 PM - 2 AM). I was also freelancing on the side as a web designer. So for almost 2 years, this was my life.

I was eventually laid off from the day job and currently still have a job working for the media, but I am no longer working remotely. They gave me a choice: move across the country or get laid off. So being one of the only employees who chose to move, out of about 20, I negotiated a nice salary rise and they even paid for my move across the country.

If you asked me just a decade ago what I would've been doing today, I probably would have never guessed I'd be working as a web designer / web developer.

There is a limited supply of housing and they have no interest in building more. That means only a limited number of people can live there. Someone has to move. Rents will just keep increasing until they do. Paying them more will just increase rents more until someone else is forced out.

And I do see it as a lifestyle choice. You can't choose a lot of things in life, but you can choose where you live. I don't have a huge amount of sympathy for people who choose to live in the most expensive part of the US, and then complain about the cost of living. Despite making boatloads more money than me. I certainly don't feel like I should be forced to subsidize their lifestyle choice (I know that isn't the argument presented here, but it is an issue that often comes up with these issues. I don't think cost of living should be taken into account with regard to government programs and subsidies.)
