Bear in mind that local governments view property crime as a form of economic stimulus.

You'll be spending money to replace the stolen items, presumably some of that locally, and on repairs, presumably all locally. Meanwhile, whatever money the criminals get back in selling the stolen items (and subsequent profits by their fences) will also presumably be spent locally.
Perhaps you haven't been paying too close attention to progress if that is how you feel.

Other games of smaller scale have taken more time, and they didn't have to build out a team of hundreds and have massive scope creep like SC has had thanks to reaching various funding goals. Not to mention it is actually two games developed concurrently!

The game to be delivered is nothing like the game in the kickstarter, and it only really kicked into full development in the last couple of years. In game dev time it's really impressive how far they have gotten, all things considered.

So long as you don't expect the impossible, and understand it is likely still a couple of years away, then you get to see the project in a much more positive light.
Pfizer blocks its drugs from being used in lethal injections in prisons	(2016)
Never really understood the "luxury" interiors with huge number of details, materials, mixes of leathers, wood, different kinda of metal, etc.

The interior that stood out to me was porsche 911 from around 1970. Not distracting, simple, robust, and lasts 30 years (when I saw it).

A larger display for excellent situational awareness (map, gps, dozen or so cameras, ultrasonic, and radar). What were you hoping for? A few dozen chrome knobs sprinkled around?

There's already two knobs on the right and left of the steering wheel, hopefully you can customize them for whatever you use the most. They didn't mention speech recognition. But if my phone can manage to be woken up and nav to wherever I need to go, seems like it shouldn't be too far behind for tesla. Two knobs, big screen, and voice prompts sounds good to me.
Blog: What Buzzfeed’s Tasty One Top Launch Means for Connected Retail
This reminds me of my experience with Google Adwords. My target was to increase signups for travellers to selected cities looking for 'events nearby'. So, I selected my cities and customer segments and had a limit set of 30 Dollars / day. Regularly, I paid for 2-5 Dollar more per day than my max price. I reduced the price to actually match my max price, but this would as a result out-price me of the relevant keywords. In addition, it never brought the clicks they charged me for. Yes, I was tracking the other side of it as well.
I believe there is a whole world of click-fraud with Google and Facebook in this which noone is tracking. I am looking forward to a world where Silicon Valley is tackling the 'hard' problems of this world again (Space/ Marine Exploration, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analytics, etc) rather then the optimization of click bait.
They have a point. As an American, I found Switzerland to be a bit more diverse than Beijing, having lived in both.

The big problem is Chinese brick and mortar retail is so dysfunctional, and it will never be fixed since online shopping has easily solved that problem around it.

I'm having a problem with this right now. Two years ago I owned my own flat in Scotland, I left the country and rented it out on the off-chance I'd want to return.

I've now sold the Scottish flat and I'm looking to rent somewhere where I am right now. Instead of having a two-bedroom flat all I can afford to buy outright in my current location is a small 25 square meter place - literally one room with a separate shower/toilet room.

On the one hand I can see this would be perfect for a student, and I know they will rent happily. On the other hand I just can't imagine living in such a small place myself.

I can buy a semi-detached house further away, or even two for the same money. It's very tempting because those properties are much nicer, but of course the downside is that renting them would be significantly more difficult. Especially having two rather than one.

So it's a trade-off I'm investigating: Small place in heart of the city, vs house in the countryside, or family-home beneath an airport. Tricky.
Python Coding Tips for Beginners
Like FaceTime, Skype abandoned peer to peer connections (via secondary hosts for NAT traversal) because there is a ridiculous patent on that when used for voice or video connections. It worked fine.

The old Fasttrack of Kazaa, which Skype was originally based on, already had static servers for getting the supernode list.

Since the supernodes were just regular customer machines and the system 'borrowed' their bandwidth under the covers it's not a big surprise they switched to hosting them themselves when they switched from illegal file sharing to legal communication. Hosting became cheap anyway.
Perhaps rather anecdotal, but this is why I joined Uber, and did not take my Facebook or Google offers. It feels nice to work on tech that directly impacts lives and how a persons day flows. As opposed to, as you correctly put it, optimizing click bait.
> It also raises a question about conversion being a lagging indicator here. It's possible after a few more months of lower spend they will start to see consumers pulling back.

Why would online lag be different from other media? It's unlikely consumers drop everything and stock up on Downy Fabric Softener after viewing the ad on TV or hearing a cheerful radio/podcast commercial.
Thanks for the answer.

Most humans do not really come up with our goals on our own either. We are heavily influenced by genes and environment. People's personality are partially changed by the environment and occupation they are in. Twins adoption studies also show that genes have surprisingly strong effects on personality even after decades living apart.

By your definition, humans do not possess general intelligence.

Edit-Reply:

I don't think we can resolve an age-old philosophical question on Free Will in a comment thread, so I'll leave it at that. :) However, General Intelligence and Free Will are largely orthogonal.

We can imagine an alien who is highly capable of any tasks human can perform and beyond, including coming up with creative subgoals as necessary, but will only serve their master's ultimate goal(s). An AGI could be like that alien but built to serve human masters. The twist is that when someone orders an AGI to efficiently reduce animal suffering, without value alignment with humans, it could come up with euthanasia as a subgoal to reduce the suffering of starving kittens.
`jsonb` functions in Postgresql can build nested objects in a single select statement. Combine that with proper joins and functional indices and there shouldn't be a problem.
There are a lot of teams at Uber optimizing for click bait lol.

Touch screens are terrible to use while driving, especially for frequent operations (volume, change stations, climate control, hazard lights, wipers, etc). The current trend is to push more into these touch interfaces, but most car manufactures have still left some of the more important ones as physical buttons.

For tesla the matter is not ergonomics, but simply cost.
For many of the types of things that P&G sell, I look at the ratio of active ingredients to cost.
It has regen, which is basically energy capture via electric brakes. But it also has regular breaks, most drivers don't use them much so they last a really long time.
I don't have much to say other than that I really admire that sense of thinking, and I hope more countries can adopt a similar vision.
> Wouldn't that just mean more property tax?

We're talking about India.

"Property tax to GDP ratio in a country generally does not exceed 3 per cent. For developing countries, the average property tax to GDP ratio is around 0.7 per cent. Reliable information on the collection of revenues from property tax in India is not available, but property tax collection is estimated at about 0.2 per cent of GDP.

...

Delhi offers an example where the total number of properties is stated to be 25.3 lakh, but only 9.6 lakh properties are on the municipal tax register. Low collection rates are also a dominant feature of Delhi, reflecting administrative inefficiency."

You bought a TL-15 safe for your home? Where did you place it? Even the smaller TL-15 safes weigh hundreds of pounds and require some logistics to place. They are very impractical for most apartment dweller types, or even some high-density, old-construction flats because of their weight.

Isn't that what they said about the iPhone when it was first released? Perhaps your income level is less than the target market segment for the Tesla Model 3.
How about "iRobot will never upload your data?"
Great summary. I'd like to add the nix package manager to your list. It allows non-destructive updates, rollbacks, parallel installs of different app/library versions, development environments and much more.
I have seen safes which you put a number of weights in the bottom, then you move the safe and door separate which both weigh a lot each. The hope is that once assembled and weighted it can't be moved easily. But...clever fools and all...so nothing is perfect and more layers of protection cost more money.

Clang targets webassembly, doesn't it? If so, does that mean it will soon be possible to browse the web with chromium running inside other browsers? That'd be fun.
Also they own the repair market. You can't get your tesla serviced at a normal shop as the software, parts, and diagnostics are proprietary, so they could actually sell the car at a loss and make the big bucks on repairs.

I don't want this. But its a viable business model.

I have nothing against FI, but on my previous motorcycle I could (and did) take apart the carburetor, fix whatever needed to be fixed (old sealings in my case) and put it back, just by reading some stuff on the internet. It is not something very complex.

I don't think I could do anything like that with my current fuel injected bike. But then again, I never needed to, because it is objectively more reliable.

There is a lot of charm in a computer-free car or bike, but I think most of the aversion people have to electronics is due to the fact that vehicles went through an "uncanny valley" of computerization, where reliability was not substantially better than previous models, yet repairability was substantially worse. I would say we've bridge that already.
> Meanwhile the property can go underutilized and the community it is in gains nothing.

but what doesn't make sense to me is why not build more property to sell?

The money the original owners got for selling must be circulating somewhere, which means a boost to the local economy, which means they should have money to invest in new development.
> You seem knowledgeable on the subject.

Not really, but the problem you describe is usually a sign of problems with posture.

An orthopaedic will be able to identify any posture issues easily.

We deal with posture when the problem is substantial/visible, but most people have subtle orthopaedic issues which can be the root cause of other, bigger problems and don't know about it until it's too late.
> if I am renting an apartment, I am SOL

Not at all! If you're renting in a high-rise building, the floors will be concrete below the laminate or hardwood. A good safe will have either 4 holes or 1 center hole in the base to allow you to anchor it to the floor. Use a concrete drill bit to drill a hole in your apartment floor in a discreet area, like in a closet or laundry room. If you can borrow a hammer drill it'll be faster, but even an ordinary drill will work, though slower. Make sure you buy a concrete drill bit.

Then attach the safe using concrete screws and anchors. You can use either a self-tapping concrete screw or, better, put the correct size expanding sleeve into the hole first[1]. Even with a single concrete anchor/screw, the safe will be 100 times more difficult to steal. I've seen expensive TL-15 safes ($5000+) with only one center hole in the base, so I assume the manufacturer thought that was sufficient (if properly anchored).

Before you place the safe, put down a sheet of plastic or a very thin patch of carpet to protect the laminate or hardwood floor. Cut holes in the plastic sheet or carpet for the concrete screws.

When you move out of your rented apartment, fill the holes with putty matching the color of the laminate or hardwood floor. If you make a small effort at patching up, the holes will be invisible.

One more piece of advice: The drilling won't take long, but it'll be very loud. If you have a nosy landlord or superintendent, do the drilling when he's not around. A superintendent, for example, is unlikely to work on a Saturday or Sunday.

Also, cover the safe with a sheet or blanket, so if someone casually looks in your closet or laundry room, the safe won't be noticed.

Ads worked differently back in the days. A hiking site would accept sponsorships by outdoor brands, basically copying the magazine model, where the targeted audience gets served targeted ads with publishers inserting themselves in the middle and collecting a fee.

The big brands have figured out that in cost-per-click (or any cost-per-action model) retargeting delivers the best results, so if you go and search for flights to Barcelona or some shoes, those flights and those shoes will follow you around - there's a high probability that a click will lead to a purchase, and it costs advertisers essentially zero if they're wrong, since you likely won't click.

The Web ads industry thus turned into a raffle industry - ads for same flights to Barcelona will turn up on outdoor enthusiast sites, CNN, Wired magazine, ESPN, your local newspaper site, Facebook and whatever else you happen to visit the next few days. In a raffle scenario the entity with the most raffle tickets gets higher chances of winning, so publishers are locked in a war to accummulate as many raffle tickets as possible with the hopes that one of them will be a major winner, i.e. you finally buying those tickets to Barcelona and those shoes on Zappos.
> Because the left has politicized science

Curiously, like creationism, the only part of the world were climate change is a problem is in some sectors of USA.

In the rest of the world, even the right parties agree that climate change is happening and it is a real problem.

Don't blame the left for politicing something when almost ALL of the world, left or right agree and some right groups in USA are the ones making the noise.
Negative Result: Reading Kernel Memory from User Mode
You are completely right, thanks for pointing it out. The problem is the mobility and the orientation. The first one can be trained and the second needs external support. Orientation is being solved with Apps like Google maps and other navigation apps for outdoor and indoor spaces (blindsquare, overthere, overhere, seeing eye gps, near explorer...). Mobility though, is a hard one because of the training involved (not everyone develops the same skill) and although canes work pretty well, they are limited too. Canes won't catch upper body obstacles, won't anticipate any obstacle until you hit it when it is close enough. Sunu band doesn't intent to replace a cane, but to enhance the navigation experience for the user with a complimentary aid that provides an extra layer of information that reduces anxiety, augments spatial perception and foster the development of the users mobility skills. Thank you.

> Would it be any easier to understand if you substituted "white men" with "jews"?

No, because Jews aren't an overwhelming majority of people taking up space in universities.

Think of something else. There's lots of traffic on the road. Can we blame any individual driver for the traffic? No. Each is a happy little individual doing the best they can, and how could they have known that every other individual would have wanted to drive that day.

But all of those individuals, following their own little selfish goals are what constitute traffic. In order to reduce traffic, they should get off the road and not drive. Walk, take a bike, whatever.

Let's go back away from this somewhat tortured analogy. If white men are not responsible for filling up the overwhelming majority of mathematician positions with white men, then who is?
