It's really commercial products that have to demonstrate they're providing a benefit compared to what's been the norm for millions of years. And they've never done so to my knowledge.

That said, if you've been particularly sedentary or aren't used to walking barefoot, you should definitely be careful in the transition. Individual physical histories, mobility, etc. have to be taken into account when recommending advice.

I do think kids should be encouraged to run barefoot as often as possible, though. Activity in general will set them up to avoid many of the mistakes of their sedentary elders.

I can't think of any city or even town without a park. The hamlet my sister lives in doesn't have a shop, but it does have a park.

The village my children go to school in has a population of about 300, no park, but it does have common open ground.

It can also be straightforward to get individuals in to give a talk, or training, on what a bit of software can do. I've done that in the past where paying directly for the software or service itself isn't an option for whatever reason.

Leaving a child in a car is similar to allow children to drown in a swimming pool. They're seen differently but they are very similar in terms of negligence and consequences.

In my opinion people doing this should be charged with child endangerment.
I was homeschooled so no stories about the school.

There were times where we lived there while my dad drove truck and other times my parents drove as a team and took us kids on the truck.

Not to be dismissive but I think you forgot very important issues, biased to your personal situation.

1) Switzerland doesn't speak English, it doesn't even have one language.

You don't feel it because you are German. One is going to have a hard time in Zurich if he doesn't speak German.

2) Considering a 20 years old insurance and a shared flat is surreal. All cities are affordable when you live in a dump with flatmates, including NYC, SF and London.

The problem is when you live in decent conditions, or worse, have a family. Your expenses will skyrocket and consume all the LOCAL salary.

Don't get me wrong. I love Switzerland, it has great a environment and it is safe. The costs of living is no better than anywhere else though.

Absolutely - the Asian legal tradition is very different. But you said,

...and I'm just pointing out that there's a robust philosophical framework, including the stated basis for common law traditions such as the US, Britain, Canada, etc. which does characterize rights as being as fundamental to the universe as particles.

A side business I run supplied them with components in 2016. Based on what I shipped them I'd say they deployed some where in the neighborhood of 18,000 graphics cards in 2016 and they were supposedly ramping up to go even bigger in 2017.

I don't have any insight into what they are currently up to because that scaling apparently involved hiring a eastern European engineer on the cheap to masquerade as a customer to try and obtain confidential hardware design details from me so he could rip off my product for them.
The Dolphin project doesn't accept donations in any form, IIRC they said that fairly splitting the money between the contributors would be too difficult.

I once studied the expected remaining length of a game of chess, as a function of moves played: https://chess.stackexchange.com/questions/2506/what-is-the-a...
What was interesting is that for the first 20 moves (40 half moves) the expected remaining length will decrease at a near linear rate, but then it levels off at about 25 remaining moves, and after 45 moves every move played will _increase_ the expected remaining length.

At the time it surprised me, but of course it is natural to expect long games to be long.

There's a similar effect when waiting for a bus or other public transport. At first, the expected time you'll have to wait exhibits decreases as time goes by: if there's a bus every 10 minutes, after waiting 8 minutes you expect one to arrive in 1 minute, compared to 5 when you started waiting. Stand there longer without a bus arriving, however, and the Lindy effect starts to apply. After 15 minutes without a bus, most likely the bus broke down, but you can expect another within 5 minutes. After 30 minutes, well, maybe the drivers are on strike today or this bus route got cancelled or you misremembered the frequency of the bus - either way, expect to keep waiting.

Anyone know of a term for this kind of behaviour? I've never seen it named, though I do recall an article that made the HN front page that demonstrated this effect with the New York subway.

> Car seats are incredibly expensive

Not in the US.

All carseats undergo strict testing under stringent regulations. While there are some real fancy seats out there, base level models ($50-100) range are safe.

More expensive seats have easier adjustments, easy to clean fabric, front/rear-facing modes, and other bells and whistles for parents.

For any first time parents in the US, I recommend picking up the latest copy of Baby Bargins (http://www.babybargains.com/). Lots of information about all the items you'll need for Baby, as well as safety ratings, and price considerations.

> Every parent wants peace of mind and I'd venture most would be willing to pay heavily for it.

That is very true. That's what gives rise to so-called SIDS motion monitors. Things that are supposed to alert you to an infant in distress, but in reality has not proven to decrease the risk of SIDS.

The KRYPTOS Code – How to Break a Vigenère Code
These headlines are annoying and what I consider to be "fake news". -- EG They are blowing up some factoid or partial fact to make a false impression.

Here's the reality--

-- Ethereum is going to PoS soon. Even if it doesn't fully switchover it will decline in profitability for miners quite a bit.

-- Ethereum is down %50 in the past couple weeks. The GPU boom is over (for now) and supply should be loosening.

-- There are just not that many coins out there that are GPU mineable to support really massive operations, like a full 747 of GPUs. BTC is $45B and ETH is $18B market cap. As far as GPU mineable coins looking at the top hundred on CoinMarketCap I see about $2-$3B market cap for them all combined. You aren't going to take the hash power of securing ETH at $18B and dump it into ETC and ZEC without thinking twice, and if you do you aren't going to be shipping 27,000 GPUS in at a time 2 months before you have to jump from your big pond into those tiny ponds.

-- And if there were, the labor to bring that many machines up, even if you already have the physical and electrical capacity is weeks of work, unless you're employing a very large labor force which you are going to turn around and fire right after they've built your very cost intensive and valuable and hard to secure warehouse full of miners.

Reality is, the industry may be buying one 747 worth over the next several months but they are all getting them a few at at time and constrained by electrical and physical capacity and labor availability, and parts of everything else.

At even low scale these are non-trivial issues, when you start building 10 rigs at a time it is at least 10 times harder, 10 times more likely a part is out, etc etc.

The utility of a car is hard to overstate. Our entire modern economy rests upon it. Self-driving only magnifies the awesome utility of cars even further, and will drive even more automation throughout the system.

Self-driving pickup of my groceries? Check. Self-driving pickup of my dry cleaning? Check. Self-drive me overnight to next vacation? Double check.

The future is bright, and it's chock-fucking-full of (self-driving) cars.

Except that formats change between driver versions, among other things. I know of few games that aggregate their shaders, most just generate them during loading. There's a good chance you'd uncover some amusing bugs.

There's something slightly pathetic about an adult who has forgotten how to cook, clean, fix things, get around, and do all the other basic trappings of living because someone else does it all for them.

If you use your time saved on laundry to learn how to paint or chart stars or build a house or a car, that's respectable.

But how many of the new upper crust are using their saved time that way?
Mining for Ethereum is entirely GPU based. Mining for Bitcoin/Litecoin is entirely ASIC based now.

You can't have it both ways. You can't pretend that backend web development isn't software development when it's convenient and assert that it is when it seems prestigious.

Your example doesn't account for any complexity. All it seems to say is "You don't have to think about architecture or platform, you can pump out thoughtless abandonware with ease."
This approach actually seems more straightforward and easier to maintain than the original shader cache system.
Of course when dolphin was originally written this wasn't feasible on hardware at that time, but nowadays I'd say shaders of this complexity aren't that unusual.
Why don't you do the calculation, and come back when you figure out just how tiny fraction of the whole energy spending this represents.

Having been to a run clinic, I can absolutely call bull on the claim "Footwear is irrelevant, here.". At least the run clinic I went to assured me multiple times that my impression that wearing "trainers" specifically and greatly increases the difficulty of running "correctly" by striking with the middle of your foot with slightly bent knee. The large heel of virtually all training shoes makes landing in the middle of your foot extremely difficult - especially if you're unfamiar with that way of landing your foot.

Footwear does matter, at least until you know intuitively how to do the motions. I never did master a mid foot strike, the closest I was ever able to get was not landing on my heel quite as hard, essentially rolling off it quickly.

I liked the pair of vibrams I wore until I wore through the rubber sole, but they are a bit expensive, and my foot shape means me pinky toe doesn't really fit up into the to things, I rather thought it unnecessary overall to separate the toes. I've been on the lookout for good places to run entirely barefoot as well, but I'm not as daring as some. :)

Same thing for patents. I was at a company that claimed to be all-in with electric vehicles, so when I devised an awesome motor control algorithm that overcomes all the common challenges in an elegant way I went ahead and got a patent. I figured we'd be doing that for a long time and it would give us an advantage. Fast forward 1-2 years and the company founder retired (he pushed the EV stuff) and upper management wasn't interested. They let the team dissipate to other companies and AFAIK they have no new endeavors in that area. And so my innovation stagnates in the dust bin, patented and unusable by anyone - including me.
We (including the rest of the learning community) would love to help you - could you post on the forums the problems you are having and we'll try to help sort them out? If you've already posted, please at-mention me there so I don't miss it.

It's a fine line between helping too much vs too little in lesson 1! For the next time we run part 1, we're thinking we'll have an optional weekend workshop to teach the necessary (non deep learning specific) software pieces - python, numpy, AWS, shell, etc. That would end up being a separate mini-MOOC I suspect.

Based on the discussions on the forums it seems most students are between these two extremes, and largely follow the video advice, branching off sometimes where they need to do some additional research, or are already familiar with some alternative approach.

Edit: actually thinking more about it - probably your best bet is to simply use http://crestle.com . All the data, notebooks, and software is pre-installed, so you can start coding right away.
Bullshit Casserole
There's a concept called the "hedonistic treadmill", where increasingly expensive and intense thrills are never enough for the people who can afford them. I would argue some people I know are stuck on that. If you can go to the beach you can't go to the nice northern beach, if you can do that you can't do Miami, Miami leads to Thailand, and so on.

It's weird to see so many super wealthy people dedicating so much time to super luxurious forms of meditation with gurus, wearing white spandex or whatever, when one can achieve a pretty solid trance-like state and think about their day while doing rote mechanical chores like cleaning and cooking. You also learn to try to avoid messes, since you're the one cleaning them up (gratuitous, "someone else will take care of it" messes are one of the things I miss the least about Peru). You also feel a bit humbled, which is good, especially when everyone around you is an obsequious yes-person.

I guess I'd do something I rarely do, and borrow an old-fashioned baby-boomer phrase, and say that maybe it "builds character"? Self-sufficient people were a breath of fresh air.
> If anything, I would suspect that the developers have become costlier over time, at least in the last 10 years or so.

Really? Have developer costs actually increased in real terms in the last 10 years? Have your developer costs (if you're outside the VC/SV bubble) increased in real terms? And how much?

This seems like a terrible assumption.

People who bought at the absolute peak of the last market, where it was for only an hour or so, are now up %2700 on that purchase in 4 years.

You can hold and you can dollar cost average, and if you weren't buying with the intention of holding for 5 or more years you weren't really investing you were speculating and if you're speculating you should be hedged or have a strategy that can handle a dynamic market.

To clarify, you are stipulating that electric engines and regenerative breaking are ~100 times more efficient than a combustion engine? Because mv^2 means a 10 fold increase in speed is a 100 fold increase in kinetic energy.

Huh. I would think most sidewalk users consider runners a nuisance. I certainly do. Street life is more vibrant when the people you're sharing the pathway with go about the same speed.

The purpose of a mass transit system is to reduce contention for housing by letting a city's population diffuse over a larger land area. Parking should amplify this purpose by expanding the amount of land served by the system cost-effectively (relative to more densely packing stations in low-density areas).

With regard to gyms specifically, in much of the country, weather extremes are enough to deter all but the most hardcore badasses from outdoor exercise for much of the year. My alternative to running indoors when it's 110 or -20 is to not run.
It's just common among quacks of all varieties, from yogis to Kellogs. To paraphrase a doctor who's name I forget, "I think it's the transgressive nature of the act [enemas in this case] which appeals to the quack. They can't give you injections or perform surgery, but they can do all sorts of things to your bottom."
Why? Why can't I just do it with my crappy hardware, and it take longer?
Those companies don't rely on international IP laws so much as laws inside China. When you start seeing Chinese companies actually competing via tenders that's when they'll start caring.
Based purely on anecdotal evidence, I would say "Want to Be Happy? Have regular bowel movements." Of course anyone with long term health issues will know that it's easy to let them run your life. Based on conversations I've had (especially with older people), having the toilet run your life is pretty common and debilitating, though. For me, it was complications from surgery (which have mostly sorted themselves out, it seems). Quick piece of anecdotal advice: 25 grams of dark (>= 72% cacao) chocolate a day works absolute wonders.
Awesome, go build it and prove them wrong
The key phrase here is "some", and not "all". I mean why is it even an argument that killing your own kid through negligence should be a crime? The perp may or may not be convicted, but they _must_ go through a trial for something like that, and the jury of their peers must decide. Anything else would cause a spike in "negligence". Because let's face it, there are a lot of people out there who have no business having kids in the first place.
Heuristics? It seems like a rough heuristic way to find a likely path.

Languages usually have a technology that drives their popularity. Javascript has the browser, and in my opinion the browser is the reason for most of the fatigue. Sure call it FOMO, and of course it happens in other domains, but web development has it particularly bad.

For example compare iOS development vs web development.

It depends on what you are mining, and your cost modeling. For instance, NVIDIA cards have better memory bandwidth and both dagger-hashimoto and equihash are memory hard algorithms, and NVIDIA cards have better expected resale value (though this will vary based on your expected sales channel.)

AMD is generally more popular among hobbyist miners, I think, because early on they had a performance advantage in Ethereum and hobbyists tend to follow each other like a herd because they have limited time to do experimentation and exploration (and this is not a criticism of them, they have day jobs and it takes a lot of effort to even get miners going, let alone optimize them across multiple parameters.)
What is up with all the blame on Google? Just because they have money doesn't mean it's okay to victim blame them. Don't blame Google for getting their bikes stolen, blame the people who are stealing them.
I found the opposite to be true. I am often surprised at how friendly and constructive comments on my projects are. After sharing them on /r/webdev, /r/react, or HN, I've had multiple messages with people helping me fix bugs, teaching me how to do things better, or just encouraging me to do more.
