Eh, asking a musician to write code is like asking a programmer to learn a scale on an accordion. Either you're going to see the failures in your own art, and be open to criticism, or ask for somebody to do it for you.

I'll put it thusly: As a broke-ass musician barely making ends meet, I'll be more than happy to contribute if Alphabet pays off what's left of the mortgage on my house.

Until then, I've only got the perspective that a project like this is trying to take food off my plate, money out of my pocket, and replace me. If you want my help, Son, you got to come better at me than with Altruism.

Otherwise, the best thing I can do to help is to say "This project is a heap of shit and your time is better spent elsewhere" without tinging it with too much condescension. Your child is brain damaged. Take it to Oregon.
I was suprised to see Lithuania so high on the list, as I didn't really think drugs were that common here. However we also have one of the highest suicide rates in the EU, so maybe ODing is a popular way to go...
I read about Carmack/Romero making Doom, and they also made the game they wanted to play.
I prefer my backgrounds muted, but a simple search and replace in gui.css is all it takes to change the color. What's not post-modern about a distributed, encrypted social network built on plain old email? I have nothing to sell, I'm just sharing.
Exactly.

Beyond removing the criminal element, the fentanyl epidemic should make the destructive nature of our current policy so obvious as to warrant the complete legalization (and regulation) of heroin. People are dying at incredibly high rates because they are not getting pure substances - they are receiving substances cut with something that can kill at tiny doses. Not only do heroin addicts have to deal with heroin overdoses (which are still quite possible), but they have to deal with fentanyl overdoses. Every time they use unregulated product, they are gambling with their lives. Our drug policy in America is completely ignorant of this reality.
China has enough urban residential capacity to house the urban population three times over; that's almost the entire country. Looking for public link as was from private paper.
My biggest issue with my local housing market is what you might consider a commercialisation of residential real estate. Property prices don't reflect their value as places to live and their location, but rather their ability to be a vehicle for investment income. High rent ensues and yet the lower demand for those properties as rentals doesn't deter the property prices from rising. Currently there are a handful of almost completely empty apartment buildings in the CBD.

People can't afford to rent or buy them yet they still move about the property market.

At some point they will surely come back into circulation at a price that makes sense for individuals, that is of course if they aren't all owned entirely by corporate scale landlords with bigger pockets.
That's true in most of the West, but if there are a bunch of half-completed buildings lying around, it's probably not the explanation in China.
Similar situation here in some parts of India. There are dollar millionaires on paper with family incomes of under $1500/month, all because they bought an apartment in Delhi 10 years ago.

The problem is, there are no buyers. The apartments are priced at $1M on paper, but there are no buyers.

I wonder what will happen once the bubble collapses.

A good brand new apartment in a decent part of Gurgaon, India, will set you back by at least $800+/month
You're allowed to list on Amazon at whatever price you want, you just need to charge at least as much everywhere.

That said, I'm not aware of recent enforcement of this, but it is in the terms.
NYT has a split stock structure.

Carlos Slim's stake affords him basically zero sway in NYT's affairs. Even owning ALL of the public stock still wouldn't accomplish that.

The founding family has a majority (70%) control of the board through the rights of the class B shares they hold, and as such are beholden to no one.
>heroin's illegal status....legalization is required for reduction of overdose rates

That will only work with supervised injection. Otherwise there will still be overdoses (albeit not as many as with fentanyl).
it may look cool from far away, like a skyline shot, all lit up. However at micro level, streets in China (especially newly developed) are entirely indiscernible and total lack of character.

If you watch any of the driving in China videos on youtube, you'll see that streets are lined with shops and sidewalks that are sterile and look identical block after block...

There are exceptions of course, city squares, etc, are largely unique from one another.. but once you get into the urban residential and shopping districts, they mostly are all identical
Because that's like teaching perl cgi in a web dev course. Sure you can do a lot, but that's not relevant to today's tech, does not give them any practical experience on real world architectures, and is very limited as to what they can achieve if they want to go further.
As a final note, I find it rather annoying that the web is flooded of articles on how to create a basic bootloader/kernel in real mode and using the BIOS, while there is a clear lack of good introductory articles on how to create minimalistic kernels using a stack like Core boot, uefi, TianoCore, long mode
Have you been to Zillow lately? Very good chance your square footage is already very public.
What I think would be awesome is a html "rename" tool, which is to rewrite all the relative urls and filenames in HTML/css files when changing their location. Does anyone know?
In a farm/preserve/etc scenario with a big diesel tank for the implements, a large diesel genset to recharge the EVs might be workable and leverage that infrastructure. Fleets of these could probably be charged off a fixed genset (not datacenter scale, but up there), which might be useful in remote scenarios or where it is tough to deliver a lot of mains electricity. I don’t know how emissions would work out (is a genset better than multiple portable engines?) and it’d be obviously less efficient than just doing the combustion in the vehicles, but it is something that came to mind when you mentioned that which might be useful for this type of vehicle.

Even if it’s a little worse in terms of the math, electric utility vehicles are strongly appealing due to their torque characteristics and fewer parts which always seem to be the ones you forgot spares of and such. With passenger sedans you’re playing the efficiency game, but with off-road, utility, industrial, and so on, there is more to think about when considering EV. Might not be that weird. (I’m a Wrangler owner who reads about electric conversions constantly — look at South Korean work on Jeeps — and I completely get where Bollinger is coming from.)
Walmart is in fact even worse to 3p sellers: they will remove your offer if they decide it's too expensive, which tends to be (from what I hear from active sellers) in the double digit percentages of the time.

They monitor against other sites and may remove if yours is too much more than other sites.
How much more complex would it be to set up protected mode and use it in assembly? Genuinely curious.
Gotta love this attitude, which is widely shared by Bay Area media and law enforcement.

- "You shouldn't have parked there. "

- "You shouldn't have left anything visible in your vehicle."

- "You shouldn't have left anything invisible in the trunk, either."

As for "key right next to house" how else do you propose letting agents show your property to prospective buyers or tenants?

In SF, property crimes don't matter. I once had a road rager shoot at me and blow a window out in my car. SFPD response? "We can't find the round (bullet), so we'll just give you a case number (and no further investigation)."

Edit: typo
You can price something at whatever you want, but if there are no buyers, it's not worth that.

I'm told Amazon Australia is opening up soon, first for merchant fulfilled and eventually FBA.
I just sat down recently and went through my colored pencils collection, which is mighty.

Crayola, Pentech, and Faber-Castell. The Crayola pencils use a hard wood. The Pentech have a soft to the touch feeling. As an artist, each has its uses - think Charcoal versus Pencil - and I was actually quite surprised.

The tactile feeling of the soft wood encourages my intense grip, whereas the hard wood feels like a chore.

I'm incredibly sad that penmanship and manual dexterity are so pushed aside for reasons of "I only type!" or "Those are outdated skills" because of the learning potential that are inherent in the self-discipline of effort.

If you can't write a sentence in cursive, then, by definition, you can't "write" in English. Let that sink in. Sure, you can print, but you can't write. I can write. I can write with a pen, a pencil, or an ink quill. I can also play guitar.

I've learned, probably the hard way, that people tend to make excuses of why they can't do something rather than spend the time to achieve what they can't. Every artist begs for an audience. The problem is when an audience thinks the effort isn't worth appreciating...

This is SO true. I live in Hong Kong and whenever I go to Shenzhen I feel like the city is a copy paste of a single street, for kilometers. It feels empty and awkward.

I'm far from an expert, but the common ratings to look for are UL RSC, TL-15, or TL-30 depending on what level of protection you want. The ratings are expensive, so generally vendors show them off prominently.

Not bolting it down does make it much easier to steal. A small safe like this can be carried off pretty easily. Even with a large safe, being able to move it can make it easier to use a pry-bar or to cut through a side-panel.
Yeah I'd say those are all anti-competitive.
If the military personnel are stretched so thin that the only solution is to bring back the draft, then perhaps the government needs to re-think it's foreign policy... As an alternate less-ideal solution, how about raising the financial compensation for soldiers so more people are willing to sign up?
>Richey is even more adamant that what the South Korean prostitutes were doing could not be called consensual because they were being paid.

This is ridiculous. Bad things happened, yes, but armed robberies happen everywhere, and this site helped to decrease them. This is like someone would argue that people working at gas stations aren't there consensually, because they're getting paid and are at risk of a robbery.

I don't see into this individual case much, maybe the Korean women were exploited, but they definitely should have chosen another wording.

You don't get to criticize us for being temporary when it is the policies you write that force us out.

And yes, if for some reason millions of people wanted to move to Wisconsin, I'd rather they built on the site of my family home than lived in RVs and mega-commuted. People's well being matters more than the sentimental value of manufactured goods.

I didn't win the genetic lottery to be born in a place with economic opportunity. But I am an American, and since we live in America and not 14th century feudal Europe, I am not obligated to stay put.
The cynic within me thinks it's purely an investment opportunity. However, it is not uncommon practice for the wealthy to purchase a nontrivial stake in popular media publications. Among other things, it allows them utilize their influence to have a seat at the table, so to speak.

Whether or not that is a net positive good for society is another topic entirely.
There is no greater discussion topic on Kaggle Slack than a comparison of XGB vs LightGBM vs CatGBM.

Aren't there a whole bunch of videos on YouTube of kids opening these with not much more than a length of steel wire and primitive hand tools? You decidedly do not want a safe that's not UL listed.

Amazing African Dancer
TLDR: my 2 cents - that 6% is ripe for disruption, so if Redfin have a differentiator maybe that price surge is justified.

For letting, my experience of comparing Hawaii with the UK is that one has to pay around 10% (plus misc charges) for decent quality full service let and management for 12 month contract in both markets.

On the other hand, Which Magazine [1] (a bit like Consumer Reports in the UK) has this to say on sales costs in the UK:

>Multi-agency agreement ... You'll pay a higher fee to go multi-agency - usually between 2% and 3.5%. Given that any estate agent worth their salt will list your property on portals like Rightmove, and being advertised several times in the same place can seem a little desperate, it's probably not worth paying the extra for this kind of contract.

>Sole agency agreement ... is the most common type of estate agent contract. This is the same as sole selling (see below) with the exception that, if you find a buyer yourself, you don’t have to pay the estate agent fees. The typical estate agent fee for sole agency is 1-2%.

That is, overall 1-3.5% for the seller. It's unusual for the buyer to have an agent in the UK.

In summary, letting costs are roughly the same in Hawaii and UK, but is way cheaper to sell in the UK than Hawaii.

Unfortunately the large vessel is our country and we're the passengers.
I have never understood the rampant practice of using ~/.emacs.d/ for one's personal Elisp files. Most of what is in this directory appears to be machine generated files from various packages. To me, it seems much cleaner to have a separate directory for my own files, instead of maintaining ~/.emacs.d in Git and having to constantly update my .gitignore as I install and use new packages.

EDIT:
Also, C-h v user-emacs-directory RET says programs in Emacs store information in this directory.
It's weird. In mountain view you can buy at 1.5m but rent around 4k ish.
A typical front door lock is considerably easier to defeat than the mechanism on one of these safes. Many can be opened in seconds with a bump key or other pick tools.

Pared-down electric experience: Driving one of the first Model 3s off the line
Stuart Russel doesn't put a specific date on the arrival of AGI. That puts him at odds with Musk, who predicts 2030-2040.

It's also at odds with the study that has the very biased question asking experts "when do you think AGI will arrive?". Many chose not to answer the question, and thus their answers can't be averaged in.

Many of the AGI safety conscious crowd skip over the question of whether we will be able to create AGI and just assume we will.

There's no precedent for this kind of discovery. Fire, the lightbulb, and nuclear weapons all pale in comparison.
It is awkward, but the name is a requirement of the trademarks involved. Something about having to use your own trademark (Windows) before someone else's (Linux)
Before 2012, you also couldn't run a system to classify among 1000 classes. Just because RL isn't there yet, doesn't mean it's not worth doing.

The reason we're discussing hardness of RL is fast.ai's narrative of "you don't need math for AI" and "AI is easy". Sure, implementing and applying AI is easy, and you just need to learn tensorflow, but doing even a modicum of novel research in RL requires a tremendous background in all kinds of math. I appreciate what fast.ai is doing to democratize as much of AI as possible, but that doesn't need to be at odds with other people prioritizing RL research.
Indeed, some advantages I can think of with Linux.

* Containers (LXC, systemd-nspawn, Docker, etc. and native virtualization with QEMU/KVM), Apple doesn't even come close here.

* Use the WM/DE of your choice.

* Superior package management (pacman, apt, dnf, flatpak, etc).

* Use the distro of your choice.

* Use the latest GNU software unlike some crippled bash version like in Mac.

* Decide if you want bleeding edge or not.

* Use any hardware you want (older or new, Linux doesn't care and it will still perform well even with older hardware).

* Get more performance with Linux.[1][2]

* Freedom.[3]

* Privacy, security and transparency.

* Peace of mind, never be forced to upgrade your hardware or software. Your hardware is yours and you can use it until it literally breaks. You control your computer and not the other way around.

IMO, GNOME 3 and i3/sway are way nicer than the GUI on macOS, and you can use all the same development tools and editors on Linux today, tmux, Vim/Neovim, Emacs, Atom, VS Code, Sublime Text, etc.

There are so many other reasons.[4] Feel free to mention your reasons too.

I don't see what's the appeal with Mac at all, it seems like you are just paying for a logo.

Well, decision makers in current governments can't personally enforce anything either. You need a hierarchy that respects their authority. It'd also work with this system.

No extra charge to get your data out.

The point is that for individuals it might make more sense to consider "friendlier" storage options. These types of services don't seem to be tailored to storing "family albums".

That steering column will look mighty impressive when the driver impales herself on it in a crash. I wonder what NHTSA thinks of non-crumpling columns and steering wheels with no air bag.
Right. If I have the Python code to parallel the Common Lisp:

import time

def drill(n, f):
for i in range(0, n):
f(i)
time.sleep(1)

def gen(n):
print(n)

drill(10, gen)

I get:

$> python3 interrupt.py
0
1
2
3
^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "interrupt.py", line 11, in <module>
drill(10, gen)
File "interrupt.py", line 6, in drill
time.sleep(1)
KeyboardInterrupt
$>

The funny thing is though I've known it was possible to redefine running Common Lisp code and I have seen the Continue option many times, it really wasn't clear why it would be used and in part because it is mostly ignored in descriptions of Common Lisp. I mean the behavior isn't described in the SBCL User Manual. Nor is it really fleshed out in the Common Lisp HyperSpec http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/f_abor...
There are no rollbacks so it will never be production ready for 99% of businesses.
I wish that Amazon would start labeling packages with a code that indicates the "seller" so that they can better track, isolate and ban sellers of counterfeit goods. It wouldn't add that much to their overhead (what, < $.20 per item?), and would do a lot to improving the risk of class action, and trademark suits ahead.
We also don't know how long it will take to solve Provably Safe AI problem. Wouldn't it be wiser to start preparing now?

Nuclear weapons were deemed impossible by some experts at the time. Throughout history, whenever there are a number of experts who believe something to be impossible and a substantial number who believe it to be possible, the latter are almost always right.

That's a fantastically positive spin on what looks like (to an outsider) a hot pile a poop. It's more like two children tearing the teddy bear in half because neither could compromise.
But if it's "their store" and not a "marketplace" then they should be required to deal with counterfeit goods, and deal with returns regardless of seller... they're trying to have their cake and a piece of everyone else's too.
1. You shouldn't be updating your `.gitignore` continuously. You need to ignore everything and explicitly define exceptions e.g.

*
!.gitignore
!init.el

2. The reason I prefer ~/.emacs.d/ is that I have it in a git repo and on every system, I'll just clone the repo and soft link it in the home directory. This way, I have only one directory inside home about emacs within which my files are explicitly separated and tracked.

P.S. I've recently tried to move from Spacemacs to Emacs and by no means a pro, so the process I've described may not be optimal.
Just host the code in Windows-land.

Symlink ~/code to /mnt/c/Users/jamie/code, run whatever editor I want in windows to edit the code, and run my app from linux-land in the console. Hasn't given me a hiccup yet, even with a local sqlite database and such.

If you just treat your linux homedir as a spot for dotfiles and symlinks out to windows, it shouldn't give you much trouble unless you're doing stuff that relies heavily on owner/write permissions.
The Chinese are big, big believers in buying your own home. That can translate into lower rents for a given purchase price. (Or, equivalently but possibly easier to understand, higher prices for a given rent.)
Depends. If you use a bootloader like grub that will put you in protected mode (The GDT is a bit undefined, but in general you can probably get away with just leaving it for simple programs). However, when you go to protected mode you lose access to the BIOS interrupts (and DOS interrupts if you're using them) and gain access to other features, so the range of things that are easy vs. hard changes a fair amount.

But if you're just planning on writing very simple text programs in ASM, then the only things that are really relevant is the text display, keyboard, and possibly disk/floppy. The text display is exactly the same (assuming the GDT from grub places it at the same location), but the keyboard is a fair amount more involved, and floppy is basically impossible (without writing a fairly involved driver). An IDE driver is surprisingly simple though (But still requires an interrupt, as does the keyboard). Both of these things are basically functions calls when you still have the BIOS around, so it does create a bit of a problem.
I can write code on Linux, but I cannot run my accounting/finance/photosoft software. Sometimes I need to run test on IE too.
I understand the love for Linux for some people, but I would like to get things done the quickest way, of course with the quality required too.
No kidding... I finally broke down and got an NVidia Shield TV so I could have one device for just about everything, I also wanted a 4K capable device, but that was secondary.
