So what happens when a US citizen starts publishing stuff China (or Russia, or the UAE, or England, or any other state that doesn't protect free speech as we do) doesn't like?

What happens in 40 years, when the US is on much less-firm footing as de facto World Cop?

We reach out and talk with companies regularly. We are both happy to organize a meeting with companies who approach us, and often (~yearly) organize calls with multiple companies using or evaluating Rust at once whom we reach out to. I believe there have been some of these focused on embedded stuff, but I wasn't on these calls.

IIUC APNGs compress the delta between frames. So 2 frames in a video have mostly similar pixels, and so will compress very well. And even on still images, PNGs have much better compression. From the same principle that nearby pixels usually have similar values.

Gifs store every frame as a separate image and use very crude compression. Also the very limited color palette as others mentioned.

That's the least of it. Paypal automatically puts you on a 21-60 day rolling reserve once you hit a certain level. Small businesses can and have had 30%+ of their revenue unavailable for two months. That's your entire profit margin gone. It makes it impossible to grow a small business. And of course they will not respond to anything for months if ever. And it never gets better! Companies with millions in revenue still get these problems.

Paypal has no place being used by anyone trying to start a company. They are awful.

Was his daughter kept strictly isolated from all other people, or were all the other people she came in contact with also careful not to mention blue around her?

If not, it's likely she ran across the word blue in conversations she had with others, in books and stories, on television, movies, songs, etc.

I am very skeptical of how much of value could be drawn from such an experiment unless the person in question is completely isolated. Even then, that kind of isolation is likely to have deep psychological consequences that could taint the experiment even then. That's not to mention the severe and possibly insurmountable ethical problems such a study would run in to these days.

If someone wants to say "I switched from Elm to PureScript
since nontrivial Elm apps can't exist because abstractions,"
it's fair for me to demonstrate the absurdity of that claim
by pointing out that our 150,000 line Elm app exists.

It would appear that you misunderstood what I said.

Elm not facilitating the use of sufficient level of abstractions does not necessarily mean one cannot use Elm to write the said app. It simply means that you would have to deal with it all at a lower level (with the corresponding code duplication where necessary) in the absence of the aforementioned capability to build abstractions. For more on this topic refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_and_Interpretation_o...

Furthermore, in the process of agreeing with the parent comment, I was also stating that I had never got the impression that the Elm community was going to fix those problems any time soon. This was because the community leaders/ members were often quick to dismiss any suggestions/ complaints offered instead of patiently exploring them. Indeed your characterizing of this thread as talking about some `spooky "abstraction wall"` is a testament to that.

Speaking personally, those were the two-fold reasons (both technical and social) for me to switch to PureScript for my personal projects. I still think Elm is pleasant to work with and to that extent I am continuing to keep track of its progress.

We don't know how it actually happens. The mechanisms we know for building up charge separation in clouds should not produce fields strong enough to initiate lighting, and measurements back that up. The fields are too weak by an order of magnitude.

We don't know if there is some other mechanism that produces stronger fields locally that gets lightning started, or if something lowers the required field strength, or maybe something else.

Here is a recent article on a new mechanism that may have something to do with it, and that casts doubt on a theory that has been popular for a couple decades [1].

Here's another article that mentions that, and mentions some of the other lightning mysteries [2].

This is so strange. Multiple classes of stock are commonplace. Nonvoting stock is for people who want to invest in the company, but not be real owners of it. That sounds like why most people buy stock. Was there a lead up to this that I missed?
This has all of my favorite media failings in one! It's like bingo! We have the game of telephone, with outlets reporting on outlets reporting on outlets, each diverging further from the primary source. We have attention grabbing headlines completely removed from the article content. Complete lack of oversight, where if you asked any expert they'd say "this is totally wrong." Big media names lending their platforms to "contributors" providing fake credibility with none of the accountability. All of that going viral despite it being complete nonsense!

Yay 2017.

> I really like how the NPM simultaneously insults two legends in crypto and does _nothing_ to protect the node ecosystem, deferring to "better solutions" that don't exist and will never exist.

But they're right. What exactly would PKI do here? Someone is generating confusion.

You could argue that maybe a PKI solution could be used to inform the UI such that users are less likely to make mistakes, but browbeating NPM over this is silly. Maven has this problem (people really concerned built their own tools: https://github.com/whispersystems/gradle-witness), choclatey has this problem, pip has this problem, everyone has this problem.

The big difference is that the NPM ecosystem is just an order of magnitude bigger than most others, and its model of many small packages can hide many more key packages in the noise.

Clever (YC S12) - San Francisco - onsite

Right now the market for educational software is a mess. It’s incredibly difficult for developers to get their products into schools, and it’s even harder for them to scale. School districts spend tons of money on learning applications, but they have no way of knowing if students are even using the apps they’re purchasing. Teachers know there’s great software out there, but relatively simple challenges like getting 30 students logged in at once make using it impossible.

At Clever, we’re working to change all that. We provide schools with a free API and single sign-on solution that makes using educational apps a breeze. We’ve grown fast: after five years, half of all schools in the US (68,000 schools) are using our platform. Our goals are much bigger than that, though. We want to be two things:

-a single place where schools can easily integrate, manage and analyze all the software they’re using, and

-a single identity that students can use to see everything they’ve learned across multiple apps.

We’re a team of just over 100 (~40 engineers) based in downtown SF, and we’re looking for engineers who enjoy working in (or would enjoy learning) Golang, Node and React. More generally, we want people who are sharp, adaptable, and passionate about improving the way education works for everyone.

Try developer edition or beta to get a taste of the work they've put into speed. I ditched chrome for FF and haven't looked back because even a year ago, developer edition was so much faster... Especially on heavy tab loads.

Iirc the speed changes can't start landing in stable until November, because of the shift to Webextensions.
It wouldn't. People look for any opportunity they can muster to browbeat the node community. Probably because they're jealous of its outsized success.
Never forget Thucydides' wisdom from 2500 years ago, as true today as then and as in 2500 more years:

"Right, as the world goes, is only in question between equals in power, while the strong do what they can and the weak suffer what they must."

Tying our hands today will do nothing to help us when we are the weak and someone else is the strong.

macOS is not configurable in key ways, so it isn't very usable unless you happen to find the one, unchangable macOS way to be the best. One Apple Way indeed.

It's also, fundamentally, closed. In this era of NSA wiretaps and everything else, that's just not acceptable. I have no idea what's in macOS, and I have no confidence Apple will do anything except give the NSA what it wants. With Linux, the attacks are much less obvious.
The Mate desktop is pretty good. It's Gnome 2, maintained and polished, and ported to gtk+3 in the latest release.

You have a strange definition of "local" for Exxon Valdez/Deepwater Horizon. As well as "temporal", too. 20 years later species haven't recovered from the Valdez spill (unless you ask Exxon). Deepwater Horizon was also a very prolonged event, it took "forever" to cap the damn thing. 1 billion+ tons of coal Ash spilled across the USA didn't just disappear over a day either from some small city corner.

The only reason why nuclear sticks so easily is because of the magic word "radiation". It's easier to be scared of it than sit down land learn that it is all a natural physical phenomenon, even if it originated from a man-made isotope. It's difficulty arises from the stochastic (quantum) nature of it's interactions.

Lastly, reactor designs have significantly improved since 50 years ago. New reactor designs I saw coming out of Westinghouse could lose all power and pumps and still use natural convection and reservoirs (elevated pools) within the containment to prevent any sort of critical event leading to meltdown. Imagine if we were stuck with the coal technology of the 70's. I would prefer modernizing the nuclear fleet if possible, which does include decommissioning old reactors, and closing the fuel cycle loop in a way that is proliferation resistant (some sort of pyroprocessing) unlike UREX.
As a vegetarian who regularly makes curries from scratch, from soaking the lentils to grinding my own spices from whole seeds/pods and grilling paneer in tandoori paste, I can say it doesn't hurt to have the option when you've feel like having a burger, and it's a good way for people who want to make the switch to vegetarianism to know that their favourite junk foods are still an option.

nutritionfacts.org is vegan propaganda and shouldn't be confused with a good source.

Nutritional science is hard and we have very limited ability to actually study it and make strong recommendations. Cherry-picking phrases and results from limited power studies just muddies the waters.

Here's the founder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Greger

> In his lectures, videos, and writings about nutrition he tries to persuade people to change their eating habits from a Western pattern diet to a whole foods, plant-based, healthy diet—optimally to vegan diet—and says that such a diet can prevent and reverse many chronic diseases.

> Retired physician Harriet A. Hall ... has written that ... Greger often overstates the known benefits of such a diet as well as the harm caused by eating animal products (for example, in a talk he claimed that a single meal rich in animal products can "cripple" one's arteries), and he sometimes does not discuss evidence that contradicts his strong claims.

"Disastrous" is clearly a gross overstatement.

There is an 80 character limit on titles. The title I used is an abbreviated version of the first line of the abstract:

Students in India who cheat on a simple laboratory task are
more likely to prefer public sector jobs. This paper shows
that cheating on this task predicts corrupt behavior by civil
servants, implying that it is a meaningful predictor of future
corruption. Students who demonstrate pro-social preferences
are less likely to prefer government jobs, while outcomes on
an explicit game and attitudinal measures to measure
corruption do not systematically predict job preferences. A
screening process that chooses high-ability applicants would
not alter the average propensity for corruption. The findings
imply that differential selection into government may
contribute, in part, to corruption.

The OP is familiar with several countries, and he is an economist with Ph.D. in experimental economics. As such, the OP understands that researchers with limited budgets may choose to carry out their research in countries where smaller amounts of money can have salient effects.

The OP believes the distribution of human capabilities and preferences is independent of national or racial origin, and understands the appeal of government positions to people who like to have power over others without being accountable.

I'm not sure that the real target is vegans/vegetarians. I don't eat, nor desire, that many of these substitutes and neither do the friends I've had for 20+ years of this diet. I believe these products are more for people who aren't committed to making a full lifestyle change, but just want to have 'meatless Mondays' or the like.
Fun fact, that's actually what we had in my last house. My dad wanted to heat the pool like that, so he Googled around, found a guy with a patent, and the guy helped him figure out how to build it for the house.
>But not electricity. For that a power plant has also turbines, generators, etc., ...

Yes,but if you don't do that, you're just wasting energy. The US realized that, which is why they added electricity generation to the N Reactor. Both were still designed to create plutonium, and would not be built without the aim of nuclear weapons.

It's like saying we grow the same corn for the edible part and for biomass. While technically true, the edible part is driving the production.
