Yea, but the 1% er's, and REIT's would just have more no brainer deals/units to add to the portfolio.

Personally, I would like to see changes on whom can buy real estate.

1. Disavow all foreign ownership of residential/commercial land. (This I don't get at all.)

2. Get rid of REIT's

3. Put a cap on the member of units(homes, buildings) a entity can own. We might prevent another Trump dynasty?

Personally, I don't like looking at a home as a investment.
My friend and I just had this discussion this morning, because he's having an ongoing argument with his girlfriend, wherein she is arguing that it is impossible to be racist to a white person in America, and he is arguing that that very argument is racist.

The gist is she is using the "power structure" definition of racism, and he is using the "prejudice based on race" definition.

I feel like this difference in definitions is the root of a lot of arguments in modern discourse.
> The issues were generally around the OS prioritizing IPv6 over IPv4 which a lot of applications aren't ready for.

If the application doesn't explicitly request IPv6, it doesn't get IPv6.
>Our modern way is more dynamic and can be just as or even more secure, provided one has the discipline to save, invest & insure.

Do that all you like, but the second you get a debilitating illness, that goes out the window.

> Most people would find a way for that surplus to turn into lattes, vacations, new cars, and large TVs rather than into shares of VTSAX, so for them, homeownership is a good idea, not because it's a better investment than equities, but because it's a better savings vehicle than nothing.

This is often not true.

I know its a popular belief with alot of millennial but anyone who has looked at a rent buy calculator quickly realizes for many areas (not the bay area / inflated housing markets beyond what the fundamentals support) buying still makes more sense than renting.

For instance, I'm considering a $325k purchase in an area where the equivalent rent is $1700/month.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/upshot/buy-rent-cal...

Even with correcting the variables, the break even point is ~$1400/month if I sell in 5 years.

That is ~$3600/year in savings over 5 years or about the cost of replacing my car in the next 5 years.
> why isn't the burden on the victim

Because there is often a massive power imbalance between the harasser and the victim.

Either way, for any legal consequences to take place, the victim must prove his/her accusation.

There is no system in the world that can protect people's careers and reputations. If a false accusation is made and the accused person can prove it, then a lawsuit will often be filed (as in the case above).
Yep. And as you also know, there's so much money in it that we won't see it change in our lifetimes. Why work when you can let the land work for you?

I use it every day. We have the fancy motorized ones with preset heights at my job, so I do alternate between sitting and standing but I probably do at least 3-6 hours of standing per work day.

I have never had any problems concentrating—once I actually get focussed, I completely stop noticing that I'm standing.
IIRC at the time, Flash lite powered or existed on many more mobile phones than did iOS. Neat stuff to read into the history of. Many of the things in this letter were true, but Apple itself was holding back some things. iOS had it's own battery management issues at this time (even though it was 1-2 generations ahead of Android power management). Cutting to the bone of power management has paid dividends for Apple, the iPhone generally manages power much better than any Android phone I use. The latest Nexus phones from Google started to change that drastically and I hope that continues.
My take on the PEP8 question is that it sort of points to the difference between open sourcing a personal project and building a community around a software project. If it's just me, then it doesn't matter if I do what I want. If I am trying to work with other people, then meeting their expectations by changing my behavior is part of what building a community tends to mean. And if using PEP8 is the sort of thing that people in a community are going to fight over, then all sorts of things unrelated to solving the problem that the project sets out to solve are fair game.

For me, it is also the case that things like learning to follow PEP8 are part of what I can get out of any side project...and worth getting because they are not worth fighting over. On the other hand, the idea of "unpytonic" as embodied in PEP8 are why I don't like the Python language community's norms very much...the norms are tribal in an unhealthy way and it comes down from the top.
Do you have collapsed arches, and if you do have you looked into rebuilding them? Assuming you look into it i know Kelly Starrett has discussed it so he probably has good resources (e.g. in Ready to Run, no running required) and there are likely other good sources as well.

My feet have "much" more of an arch in my feet than two years ago and the difference is noticeable.

Deadlifts are amazing to strengthen the lower back muscles. I used to have lower back pain from mountain biking (which can be typical of the sport), and after I took up weightlifting that pain mostly went away.
I wouldn't quote numbers (or multipliers) here, but my recollection is that, after a lot of tuning, it was lower than what you mention, at least in the section of the stack that I was involved with.
Of course, the board had to give some kind of sign off (which is what I meant by upper management), before even knowing the full price :-), but the case for this differentiating feature was being made by Marissa. It wasn't merely signing off.
I don't remember anyone ever bringing up Eric when talking about it. If anyone, it was her, for good or for bad. She stuck with it even if early iterations were clunky, slow or inefficient. I'll grant her that she started with something that I thought unfeasible and almost a pipe dream, eventually seeing it turn into something actually useful, with the help of hundreds (Eng, PM, UX, etc.).
Oh my, just fork it and avoid all the drama.
This advice is gold, thanks. But what I'm finding is that it's too painful to create a TypeScript project that has both a front-end and a back-end by incrementally building it like this, unless the front-end is just a set of static files with no compilation steps.
It might be possible to also run Flash in a mini VM. Who knows, maybe someone will figure it out playing flash in WebAssembly in "legacy mode" which disables a vast swath of file and other security issues. Introducing sandboxing could be one angle, but I'm sure someone far more experienced has already thought of this.
That's not actually evidence. I can't "just try it out", because I don't have a collection of flash games with html5 equivalents. And I still don't believe you.

Having my fans go on full blast because of Flash is something I remember happening quite often. Having my fans go on full blast because of html5 is not something I remember at all.

And your use of games here is a red herring. Nobody complained about games using up battery. The complaint was flash ads using up battery.
Nice try at slandering Andreessen.

Marc Andreessen is worth a billion dollars at 46 years of age. John Arrillaga is worth $2.5 billion at ~81 years old.

With Andreessen Horowitz now the preeminent VC firm in the US, it's extremely likely Marc Andreessen is going to far out pace Arillaga's real estate wealth via his investment returns in companies.

Simply put, Marc Andreessen found a far more lucrative and faster way to make money than John Arillaga did. Andreessen's current position is worth more than a couple billion in real estate. The biggest companies on earth are all tech companies now. The most profitable companies on earth are all tech companies now. Andreessen has a seat at the center table of the greatest corporate wealth boom in world history (just MSFT+AMZN+GOOGL+FB+AAPL = $3 trillion).

Further, Andreessen isn't necessarily entitled to that land wealth. For your premise to even be considered, we'd need to know more details about their marriage. How do you know Andreessen won't be richer - courtesy of his growing tech wealth - than John Arrillaga before John passes away?

The money isn't in tech? Just ask Gates, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Ellison, Page, Brin, Powell Jobs, Ballmer, Allen, and Dell how that works. Now compare them to the dozen or so richest real estate tycoons in the US.
It's one common factor across practically all of the developed world — both sitting and stress have increased harshly for kids and young adults in the last 30-40 years.
Perl6 is no longer implemented in Haskell on the backend. I think the old parrot VM was, but MoarVM is in C. On the bright side, a lot of cool FP concepts made it into P6 as a result of the original Haskell backend, so useful cross polination happened. Even better, you can do FP stuff in a much easier to understand way and you can also mix in OO when needed or relevant.

That might explain why I've watched almost all newcomer cashiers in our local supermarket gain weight quickly after starting their job. Of course, the stress might also be to blame.
I can echo a similar scenario as above. While plugging in my phone to Android Auto is easy, there is still the time required to allow your phone to transition from WiFi to LTE, back-up-camera enabled when backing out of your garage, and opening up the Android Auto menu (but first I have to tap home and go into it).

Overall, in a driving commute of about 25 minutes I have to spend the first 2-4 minutes effectively waiting to configure Android Auto and for it to kick in with the proper signal and menus.

It's a hassle for everyday commuting when the purpose of AA is to simplify a lot of the work. The menu systems are also a bit of a pain to navigate for podcasts. So I end up organizing my music/podcasts before I get in the car.

Yes, it was killed for this reason. Singular hotkeys that drastically alter state are a horrible UI design decision. When commanding, controlling, or altering a program, the trigger should be an explicit action. One accidental key stroke should not be catastrophic.
The last sentence pretty much sums it up..

"I know that hardware is cheap, and programmers are expensive."

The way people here are talking makes it sound like they are spending man years setting up a couple servers. From my experience the time consuming parts are messing with the software stack. A problem none of these vendors of machines/VMs/etc really solve (ignoring way overpriced shared databases/etc). Buying a server installing an OS/whatever on it, tossing it in the rack and providing an IP/VLAN/etc is less than 1% of the time/effort spent on spinning up an application. Plus if you buy used, its possible to get 3 year old machines for less money than AWS charges for a month... To which I always hear about "reliability" of old hardware despite the fact that a large part of this rented hardware is just as old, and outside of disks/SFPs and batteries none of it really dies of old age.

As others have said, the effort to "cloudify" your application is probably more than the effort to buy some massively over-provisioned machine. Sure all the big boys need all this fancy management, but your startup with a few hundred thousand hits a month can probably be run on a 5 year old machine if any effort at all were spent assuring its not doing something stupid that results in second long page responses.

The interesting question is why real estate prices behave like this.

My tax rate doubled when I moved from the Midwest. So did my cost of living. My salary did, too. But I am saving more now than I was there, and I will easily be able to retire and live very nicely back home: much better than I would have had I stayed. So for some (many?) the "tax" you describe is worth it.
Python Programming in Psychology – From Data Collection to Analysis
There are so many things wrong in this country: real estate should be highly taxed, financial investments should be rightly taxed. Failure to do so is just maintaining a constant drain of money from the larger part of the population to that small group of rentiers. Instead, politicians want people to believe that everyone can get rich at the same time investing in housing and stocks. We are starting to see the results.

Honest question, as I haven't had a chance to look into P6 as much as I would like. It looks pretty cool in a lot of ways, but I'm worried that all of the options available would create a confusing mess.

Yeah, my comment was directed at the parent who asked:

> I don't understand how some other language would not need to handle all the errors ?

And was intending to give a brief description of how other languages (possibly including P6, though I don't have the experience to say) handle errors differently from the languages they listed (go/java/php/python/js).
> North America has low population density relative to most of the world.

Well the quotient N(north america) / A(north america) is low, but this value does not have to match the average or median population density in areas around samples.

In other words, yes, America is a big country, but it's big cities are just as densely populated as big cities anywhere else.
Media outlets claiming that the arrested guy is also a suspect for MtGox theft. https://twitter.com/coindesk/status/890256080965599232

I've personally looked at BTC-e's trade histories and am not inclined to believe this. BTC-e's weak security track record also doesn't exactly support this theory either.

EDIT: I guess wizsec came through http://blog.wizsec.jp/2017/07/breaking-open-mtgox-1.html

>To be clear, this investigation turned up evidence to identify Vinnik not as a hacker/thief but as a money launderer; his arrest news also suggests this is what he is being suspected for. He may have merely bought cheap coins from thieves and offered a laundering service. He is, however, a crucial piece of the puzzle, as he will have likely known who he was dealing with and laundering for, and so represents a major breakthrough in the case. We assume that law enforcement will now be taking the appropriate next steps to pursue all the remaining angles and hopefully identify the other individuals involved as well.

The burden of proof is on the one making unsupported claims, not on the one questioning the unsupported claims.

(It's tedious to post supporting studies on every post, so there's nothing nefarious about claims being initially unsupported.)

I do agree that the "be careful..." comment is perhaps open to being interpreted as snarky, though it's always hard to infer the intent in a forum such as this.

I built something very similar too. My setup is to have two screens, one for standing, one for sitting (and two set of input devices). I close one screen when I'm using the other and I mirror the image on both screens.

I have another setup with an Ergotron Workfit (can be lifted up and down) but I find that the position is more adjustable with my mirror-screen version. With the Ergotron the position of the hands relative to screen is fixed so eye-screen distance can't be adjusted as well as I'd like. Also screen height doesn't go as high as I'd like.
Yes, the billing is specifically targeted around per-second execution. The containers can start within a few seconds, they allow for customization of CPU cores and memory, and they allow you to focus entirely on your container without having to worry about any VM management. Traditional VM-based infrastructure is still the way to go for long-running applications. This just opens a new avenue into using containers in the cloud.
There is an old (infoq? I think) presentation with Damian Conway where he calls it a new paradigm "grammar based programming" where you write a grammar parser object easily using the built-in functionality and then add a little code to get with it and BAM you're finished. I think this elegantly solves quite a few programming tasks of mine.
Well the mortgage got them that initial capital in the first place to buy a home. Banks weren't giving them a loan to buy an index fund so it's not really a fair comparison, especially if you ignore opportunity cost of paying rent as you state.
My advice is to keep in mind the idea of building it for others, but just build it for yourself first. Then you'll have some screenshots to show people to see if they want it.

Others may say they want it, but until you have something to show them, they won't really know. If you want it, build a minimal version, use it, then show it off. Keeping the eventual possible goal in mind may help you avoid dead-ends, and let you extend more easily, avoiding the "full re-implemention" hassle.
This is the kind of advice I wish was easier to get. The AWS docs are very lacking in my opinion for "If you're exhibiting this specific performance problem the cheapest option is to increase [x]" where [x] is increase instance size, disk size, performance, add a read replica, etc...
Actionscript is nearly identical to forms of Javascript, so I'm not sure what you find about learning your time with Flash that wouldn't be transferrable.

To be clear here, overflow is a "program error" in Rust; it's specified to panic in debug builds, and any build where it doesn't panic is defined as wrapping two's compliment.

I tried to toss this into godbolt, but the optimizer is too good of course, it will optimize away the entire if if my_signed_int is a literal. Here's one without optimizations: https://godbolt.org/g/tBZcTA

It seems to compare 1 to 1, and then branch. My guess, though this isn't my area of specialty, is that this is because it is also assuming that overflow can't happen, making this always true.

Clang, interestingly enough, does the load, add, and compare https://godbolt.org/g/gPjgVc
