That's more Uber than Amazon.

Amazon didn't turn a profit for years because they were heavily reinvesting in more/better infrastructure (their "fulfillment centers") and services. One of the biggest services out of this reinvestment is AWS, which AMZN built for AMZN, and then realized it was such a good product they started selling it to others (also part of Bezos' ethos and their large initial costs: if you can't sell your internal tools to other people, you shouldn't be using it)

However, Amazon is making a profit these days, and is still growing, so I think it's sustainable.

Uber, meanwhile, is/has been subsidizing many/most rides with VC money in order to get market share, which is an entirely different thing and more in line with your perception.

What you describe is exactly how you come to dominate retail business and become monopoly power online.

Amazon's reference point is Wal-Mart. They are in ever expanding price cutting small margin business.

Another good comparison in Microsoft in 80's and 90's. MS dominated over IBM, Apple and others several decades with sup-par product everybody hated by attacking and destroying potential competitors, not by improving products.

Bezos knows what he is doing.

On the contrary, the culture and the society very much influences how various mental issues develop and manifest and how they are interpreted.

You can't explain writing emails impersonating someone simply as result of "chemical imbalances in the brain" (except if you reduce every kind of human behavior to that, but then the phrase "chemical imbalance" does not explain anything). Brains and their chemical imbalances are much older than the technology of emails, or even writing.
It's not behind the Raptor in development. The Raptor has test fired but only a sub-scale. BE-4 design is finished and should not change anymore. We don't know if it has been test fired or not, they are in the middle of the testing campaign and Blue Origin does not share that information.

The first BE-4 will be done long before Raptor, and it will fly before.
Can't you just use ZFS without RAIDZ and still have your data protected from corruption/drive failures?
I think storage is hard and I never understood the advantage of RAID (at least for home usage). It really only looks like an inflexible option, with too much risk to me.

What's the benefit of RAIDZ over say, you choose to have X copies distributed over your disk(s)?

Answer: zfs: copies=n is not a substitute for device redundancy! source: http://jrs-s.net/2016/05/02/zfs-copies-equals-n/

Here's a discussion about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/4hbn8v/raidz_v...

Anyone who wants to have real security, relies on off-site backups, isn't that right? And aren't RAID(Z)s slow to recover also? (serious questions, I'm a zfs noob)

RAIDZ: I don't know what stripe-set configuration is good for me and don't want to waste time comparing RAID controllers or if I even need one. Then configuring the beast on the hardware and software side just seems to be too tedious. Why not just (de)/attach another disk and let zfs expand/shrink my total disk space without loosing consistency?

Startup idea: Someone clever should find a flexible storage solution that uses aufs, unionfs etc. to give you the flexibility we need.

There is 0AD and the various games of Spring RTS.

The problem is often that the infrastructure around such open source games is bad/crumbles. Everyone wants to write shiny gamedesign code, nobody wants to work on tools or server-software.

Another issue is, that people who felt the pain, dont have a way of knowing when the pain is fixed. If you could have a github-trigger, as in "send me notification, if the following issues are fixed" and the devs could see that there is a potential crowd waiting - that would be awesome.

There's no dangerous precedent/slippery slope - in the financial world offering a money transfer service to anonymous customers is already banned, that's what KYC/AML laws are intended to do. There's no right to trade anonymously and for large transactions legitimate businesses are required to identify you and not accept anonymous customers (KYC requirement).

It doesn't necessarily mean prohibiting anonymous instruments like physical cash or Monero, but it means that any non-small use of such instruments is required to be accompanied with documents about the transaction.

E.g. you can legally sell stuff for a briefcase of cash, but you're required to declare the transaction, including the identity of that person (e.g., in USA, IRS form 8300 for cash amounts exceeding $10000; you can legally sell stuff online for Monero or whatever other consideration, but if it's a significant amount, then you are required to identify the person even if the payment instrument is anonymous.
Try the military. It's usually better than people imagine.
No you are conflating that since something is illegal ergo it's wrong. The point that you're missing is that laws can be wrong and can be changed. Just because something is currently illegal does not make it wrong.

I doubt people who actually do write compilers would get much of use of any book out there.

There are 2 main tasks a compiler does:

* parsing
* optimized code generation

While nominally parsing is covered by books and there's loads of theory on it, production compilers (gcc, clang, Go, swift) pretty much always end up with hand-written recursive-descent parser, which are a lot work but their structure is rather simple.

Code generation is universally done by converting to SSA and then writing optimization passes on top of that. Again, lots of work and lots of optimization rules, but nothing earth shattering conceptually. Read up on SSA and study existing code like https://github.com/golang/go/tree/master/src/cmd/compile/int... for real-life optimization.

Then there's linker stuff like generating pe/elf/mach-o executables, generating symbols etc., which isn't covered in books but there's documentation on-line on all those subjects and you can study existing code like https://github.com/golang/go/tree/master/src/cmd/link/intern...

When I was working in the film industry I once asked a french female colleague, why does she still prefers Germans over French male. French macho sexism was rampant in certain circles, and I never experienced that in Austria or Germany. (Not listing other cultures which are much worse than the French, of course.)

She said: "Yes, even if they are sexist and extremely macho, I still prefer the French over the Germans, because the French adore women. Germans just don't care."
I didn't know what I should answer then, because there are still certain aspects which I would never accept. Like this one in this story.
> Free. Volunteers.

I don't think this is a good solution, because in reality reviewing these papers is complicated work for people who have spent years, often times decades, in their field. They do deserve to be paid.

I do think publishers provide tangible, real value, but often the value they provide is significantly outweighed by the problems that arise from the way they run their businesses.

Thanks for your contribution! I've flown many interplanetary missions with your tool.

For more accurate and realistic missions, there's this tool [0] to calculate pork chop plots [1] to find minimum energy transfers. (you surely know about this)

I think calculators and mission planners like this should be a part of the game proper. Switching to a web browser mid-game to do mission planning is a big turn off for me.

It might be a part of their game design, there are very few numbers and data presented in game. But I don't think it works very well apart from some very basic moon missions. A lot of the information is there but it's just difficult to find (e.g. want to know your inclination? select moon, and then look at ascending/descending nodes in map view).

I enjoyed the eyeball method initially but you grow out of it soon. I liked the "fire prograde when moon rises over horizon" moon missions and I even achieved a rendez-vous in 0.17 [2] before there were maneuver nodes or other helpful gadgets in the map view.

But once we got maneuver nodes, intersection markers, etc that playing style was out of the window. Now I'd really want to have some proper mission planning utilities (similar to some MFD modes in Orbiter).

I think the game should (at minimum) have a transfer window planner, a patched conics solver (with optimization), a pork chop plotter and a rocket burn planner for ascent and powered descent. Perhaps a Clohessy-Wiltshire-Hill equation solver for pinpoint accuracy rendez-vous too.

> I guess the question is, why not Django?

Ok, so I'm going to bite. I'm using Django for my company's website[1], and while I think it's hands-down the best framework for Python, I must admit to having felt some envy when I investigated what all the fuss on Rails was all about.

I think Rails' controller concepts are cleaner, and its way of handling forms is simpler and more direct (granted, with more sugar or magic, which some have a problem with -- not me).

I've spent some time in HK, and this really is just completely and utterly false.
There's no need to suspect - looking at the regulations, it seems that the standard AML/KYC laws everywhere in the first world already require anyone selling anything large with an untraceable payment instrument (i.e. anything other than through a financial institution; which commonly means cash, but not exclusively so, bags of diamonds or Monero count as well) is required to report the transaction and the identity of the customer.

It doesn't mean that everyone reports that, quite the contrary, but all legitimate businesses do and will.
Yep, fructose is exactly the same in an apple or in candy. It's not "processing" it what makes it bad. Unless by "processing" you mean isolating it so you eat it without the fiber of the apple.

Fructose doesn't satiate, while fiber does, and it slows down absorption of fructose as well.

For the same reason, fruit juice is pretty much liquid candy with vitamins.

Your police have basically admitted that if worst comes to worst, they won't be able to uphold the law. 53 criminal zones, for a country like Sweden with relatively little police and military, are beyond managable.

We see the same in Germany, but people choose to ignore it. There are more and more areas in cities where you can't make use of your democratic liberties without being subjected to violence, mostly connected to muslim inhabitants that think their religion is above the law. We have more police and resources to cope with it, but it's reaching its limit.
InPost is essentially useless in the UK, mind... there's essentially no retailers that support it, you can't have arbitrary packages from retailers posted to one, and I've literally never seen someone using my local InPost box to send packages. I'm assuming they're burning through investment money badly. To show how little people care about it: it doesn't even have an English-language wikipedia page.

If they could somehow have the postal service and couriers able to post things to InPost boxes, it'd be far more useful - but I suspect there's some really complicated contractual stuff that prevents that.
