An Update Regarding Pokémon GO Fest in Chicago
Sure. It's an evolution of the idea I saw here:
http://hackaday.com/2015/12/15/feeling-force-through-a-servo...

Using a flexible servo horn, this allows some degree of deformation when torque is applied. Embed a 1/32" neodymium
magnet in the horn, and a magnetic rotary position sensor in the driven part. As resistance to movement ("torque") increases, the flexible servo horn twists/deflects, angle of difference between the two parts changes and this can be detected by the magnetic sensor.

Picture a torque strain gauge, the way the needle deflects from the centerline of the gauge. This is similar but we're doing so in an radial (edit:removed axial) and not linear sense.

I went on to 3d print a flexible servo horn somewhat similar to this:
http://mechanismsrobotics.asmedigitalcollection.asme.org/dat...
but with the magnet embedded in the outer rim of the wheel and the sensor in the inner section.

Different amounts of sensitivity are obtained by printing different spoke stiffness on the horn.

Result is a compact, modular torque sensor for about $2 in parts.
Feed the results to a PID look and you have a nice controller that can tell me when a robot leg is bearing a load, or is jammed, etc. This is essential to proper gait. Otherwise your robot is simply an electronic marionette.

One of the big challenges was getting 16 additional 16bit voltage reads back to my Rpi over i2c bus. (one value for each servo)

I've never really understood why this couldn't be slotted in as "implementation defined behavior". `add` has a well defined meaning on every platform just because it differs shouldn't give the compiler license to change the meaning of my program for that platform. It should however platform specific optimizations based on overflow, etc.

Could somebody provide me with an example of truly undefinable behavior? (Perhaps data races?)

>Not to mention Linux has a much better license for end-users in that it makes some effort to guarantee the code stays free, and that corporations can't close and modify the code and redistribute it for profit.

I disagree very strongly with this statement. The best license for the end user is the one that enables the developer to thrive financially. If that license is open source it's a bonus for the end user. I also believe that the software is only truly free if you're contributing because you care, not because of a viral contractual clause.

I think you're either focusing on a very small part of the market - very large websites - or you're overestimating the requirements most websites have. Either way, it seems like you're taking about a very different scenario than I am.

Endless inventory and minimized administration but higher upfront and ongoing server investment is not a benefit when you need to write a website used by under 10k people a day. Nor is it a benefit for internal services moved to the cloud for nonsense reasons. Both of which I've seen done far too frequently. Simple tooling and small virtual machines or singular dedicated servers like are easily enough for these applications.

I can definitely understand the need for a small team working on a very large, high hit count application though. I'm not saying there are no uses for it, there totally are and you make valid points, just that the uses more limited than one might expect by the hype.
Agreed though the effect this page has on how billions of people consume information is huge - I think the idea was to close the gap as much as possible on 'have a thought -> receive information'.
No personal experience, but salaries in Europe seem, on the whole, utterly pathetic compared to the US, at least looking at listings. I don't get the impression London bucks this trend.

That being said, I moved to Europe and am pretty happy with where I'm at. It helped that my first job was with a company that had SF and Dublin offices, and I knew what the rate in SF was.

It's public sector and Ireland, but here's an example of a job paying €28k in Dublin that would be triple that in the states. Note the use of docx...

Cold is actually a little bit counterintuitive on a bike. Being too warm is actually a greater concern than being too cold. Bundling up too much actually causes you to sweat and the sweat ends up freezing, which is bad. My advice is to usually wear thinner layers, and have more layers that way you can remove layers if you're too hot. My baseline warmth is basically whatever you'd wear if you weren't cycling and then remove a layer or two. The first couple minutes of riding might be a little cold, but you warm up very quickly.

Gloves are absolutely a must, even on days that are brisk but not freezing. Beyond that, something to cover your ears on cold days is usually a good idea.

"actual action" is not a binary thing. You can gauge motivation by how much action there is, relative to the notional "seriousness" of the subject.

On that basis, the idea "women are socially pressured into wearing make-up" falls short. Women, themselves, are rejecting the idea.

This isn't all jobs, though.

A doctor, or back-end dev shouldn't feel any pressure to wear lipstick.

If you want to direct criticism at those roles/instances where there is a problem, and maybe suggest solutions, I'm fine with that, but broad strokes don't do much help.

Incidentally, I see fewer women in my own country wear as much make-up as those in America appears to do. I mentioned "doctor" specifically because I am surprised how much american doctor wear. As a further anecdote, whenever an american version of a European series is remade, the american actors are usually more attractive..

NIMBYs are part of the problem, but there are also well-meaning (if poorly executed) safety and zoning regulations that drive up the cost. Rules like parking minimums, disability accommodations (i.e elevators) and minimum square footage requirements all contribute to increasing pricing. We have to decide as a society whether housing should be considered a luxury, and those who can't afford things like elevators and parking spots should be forced to live in a tent on the street or not.

Want an interesting read? Go to your city water providers website and read up on all the pollutants they are over recommended levels on. Then look at the pollutants they are over the legal limit on.

This is awesome news. It was always a pain to set up my search engine to have instant off - and of course instant turns back on if you performed a second search on the results page of the no-instant page.

I have never once had my search experience enhanced by this anti-feature, and most of the time it's a hindrance, because I'll start reading the search results, then based on that come up with a new query and start typing it while continuing to scan the page. In non-instant world, maybe 60% of the time I'll end up finding what I want to click on as I continue to scan the page, then stop typing and click on that (or I'll be reading the name of someone that I want to google from the except from the page). In instant world, I have to read the whole page, decide if I need to make a new query, then type it (which is the exact opposite of the intent of instant, mind you).

The worst thing about Instant was that if you started typing something that didn't have results it wanted to display (because maybe it was a NSFW-type query or because it just didn't have good results for the incomplete string), rather than leaving the old page up until it had something it wanted to show, it would just blank the old page. Horrible.

You deferred updates to the owner via scheduler, with high prio, and continue.
parrot threads are lock free but not wait free.
The NQP compiler needed to know about threaded writes and schedule the update, with a semaphore, while the other threads continue.

What MoarVM got better was everything else. The GC, the calling convention, the OO (6model), the jit.
I was on my way to fix all the parrot damage done from the previous decade, because this would have enabled all architectures and proper threading for perl6, but then perl6 decided to kill it and go with Moar.
And spread a lot of lies on threads.

Good riddance.

This was a marketing feature more than anything else so google could boast about how fast their search engine was.

You could also think of bitcoin as an ICO. There's 21 million tokens that Satoshi sold, that people purchased with the expectation of profiting from. Boom, it's a security. If the financing model of a traditional blockchain is okay, but issuing tokens are not.. then programmers are about to get very creative with how get around loopholes.

> But many ICO won't have to be ... issued by humans

I mean the contract will be written by a person. But instead of having a central "issuer" (like a core team) the issuing mechanism is automated via the contract on the blockchain.

The important thing to keep in mind is that these are two consequences of the state of the FreeBSD tree in the early 5.x days. There's no question the first couple of 5.x releases had a great number of stability and other issues, and I can certainly understand that experience leading to an approach of "never use a .0 release." But it is precisely because early 5.x was in such bad shape that 4.x continued to receive ongoing development for so long.
Waze is great for commutes or other local driving you don't normally need nav for because the traffic routing is top notch (I've had experiences where it has told me to exit highway immediately and easily saved me an hour because of a terrible wreck that just happened). Also great for identifying speed traps on the highway which is why it's really popular with truckers.

After decades of Federal policy to encourage investment in housing, the consequences are getting harder and harder to ignore, yet the blind faith in these sorts of paternalistic policies remains unabated.

The many tax breaks and loopholes for real-estate investors resulted in overbuild in many parts of the country... these were the parts that were hit hardest in the crash of 2008.

Not only was this a big misallocation of capital which robbed other industries of investment for decades, but the response to the crash was to prop up real-estate prices through other drastic measures.

These massively inflated prices enriched many of the landlords in urban areas, greatly increasing their political clout and ability to push for regulations that protect their incomes and harm the public.

Meanwhile, transit systems and roadways declined, further increasing the value of urban real-estate because of the great inefficiency of getting to and from a city if one lives outside of the city.

So now, real-estate-fueled urban price inflation has altered mobility patterns creating further economic distortion. Software engineers in SF make high salaries but live a lower standard of living than those in other cities:

https://www.codementor.io/blog/best-cities-software-engineer...

Who is benefitting from all of this? The landlord class, builders, and construction companies.

When you see a politician wearing a hard hat chances are that politician is helping enrich those interest groups at the expense of everyone else.

There is an inherent limitation of using proof of work to back up a store of value. Something needs to pay for that proof of work so either you have high transaction costs or inflation.

So, it's easy to have altcoin without speculation. Suppose your alt coin has 4+% inflation / year built into the coin. It could become the worlds main currency without making anyone rich. Adoption would increase because transaction costs could be extremely low promoting it's use for a lot of transactions.

EX: Initial adoption would be small purchases like vending machines where CC/other coins have much higher transaction costs. This could extend to things like cheap subscriptions etc, and then work up the value chain until people are using it to pay rent.

> I highly recommend that you try out a language with good support for option/maybe types

Right. Like Perl 6.

> Very often, your error handling through a chain of operations will be to use a slightly different operator (say '?.' Instead of '.') and any errors will be automatically propagated to the end of that section of code where you can handle them all in one place.

P6 does this stuff particularly well.

It makes option types opt out. You have to explicitly specify the equivalents of Just or None, otherwise you're automatically dealing with an option type if you're dealing with a type.

Conditional constructs are designed to work well in this context.

One can use ML style pattern matching as those conditional constructs.

And other styles of matching.

Error exceptions are unified with error values, allowing codebase/author A to use one style, and B to use the other but pretend that A's code used B's style, and for C to use B's code in whichever style they prefer, seamlessly promoting/demoting between warnings, errors, and exceptions, including across language boundaries, as fits a use case.

And so on. Perl 6 learned from Perl 5 but it also learned from Haskell and many other languages.
