yes - my son has a healthy amount of activities outside of his half-day at Montesorri. Could i spend more time with him? i sure wish i could have half-days too but reality is i get home and have just ~1hr to make dinner, bath and play with him.

next week i will experiment with a 50% reduction of screen time (currently @30min/day) and substitute it with a plethora of strategy games and legos.

hopefully this will do the trick.

ive twlked to a ton of friends with kids and they all deeply wrestle with this.

i honestly feel this will be our generation's greatest challenge. thanks guys for your support.

If you're like 25, I could be your parent. And I understand cryptocurrency OK, so I guess make sure you have dumb parents before trying this test.

But actually the difficulty of understanding it is a big part of what keeps it from going truly mainstream. When the equivalent of AOL comes along and abstracts all that stuff away for people, that's when you'll see Eternal September all over again.
I am pretty much in agreement. I have no complaint about anyone who likes this and wants to use this, but it's not for me. I like utilities that do one thing. ls for listing files. find for finding files and traversing hierarchies. git for dealing with git repos. xargs and pipes and maybe other utilities if I need to glue things together.

If I want something fancy, I will use emacs dired mode as a filesystem navigator and magit for git repos.

And cynically, if this wasn't written in Rust I don't think it's on the front page.
The article says he was selling his software by advertising it as a tool to steal credit card and banking information from people infected by it. There is no legitimate purpose for that.

This is like a gun manufacturer advertising their gun as "Great for robbing liquor stores!"
a little- so you can pay the car owner of the use, and only use/drain the batteries when the difference between peak and off-peak power prices justifies the use. In NZ there is a market for power - and you can see how the peak to off-peak prices can create the arbitrage opportunity.

Through no fault of their own, white people now have a harder time getting into universities, medical schools, and even employment compared to a lesser qualified minority. This is terribly regressive, and no doubt a result of leftist pressure.

I'm all for giving everyone a fair chance, but I would never hire someone based on their race. I will pick the best person for the job even if that means having a team composed 100% of white males. And for what it's worth, I'm not even white.
> Unlike gcc the license for llvm/clang is more liberal so if they want private internal tooling they can still do that also.

How can that be true? The definition of private internal tooling is that it's not publically distributed, and therefore, GPL isn't a concern.

Unless you distribute the result of your modifications to GCC, both clang and GCC are viable bases from which you make your internal tooling.
I was looking for exactly this a while back. Awesome little tool!
Thanks. So a physical bitcoin is not worth 1 bitcoin, but rather a percentage of the entire bitcoin market value (maybe not the right term), relative to the number of physical bitcoins, correct?

There are other countries that have stupidly harsh penalties for drug dealing and use (e.g. Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines). Hasn't really done much there. Only works in Singapore because it's already a police state. So perhaps you can solve the drug problem with police if you're already in a police state, but that doesn't strike me as a sensible approach.
It doesn't have to happen against anybody's will.

That only works when the files you want to compare are in the same folder and next to each other. If you just want to know how big a given file is, then you have to count the digits. And IIRC ls doesn't even print commas like that to make it human readable. It's just a blob of digits with more precision than is reasonably necessary for the vast majority of uses.
Some kinds of organizations require some level of distrust in their culture. And the issue seems to really lie with how the employer handles past drug use. My understanding is many organizations, including some government agencies, tend to be fairly lenient about admitted past drug use (depending on many factors like how long ago it was and the kind of drug).

I think in an ideal world, questions about past use would never be asked and drug tests would be strictly limited to determining if someone is high/drunk on the job. The fundamental problem is employers losing potentially valuable employees due to their unnecessary and invasive drug policies. The polygraph isn't to blame.
Looks very nice, I've been using K, which has some other cute features (https://github.com/supercrabtree/k), but I'll definitely add this to my arsenal.
Imagine you had USD 200 noted in a public ledger (BTC in address you own private keys). Somebody decides to copy that ledger and names it VSD. Its gets public support and so now you have VSD 200 at same address, accessible with same private key, and this point onwards both USD & VSD are going their seperate ways. Whatever you do to one will NOT effect the other because the ledgers are different now.

There can be as much copies of ledger (offshoot coins, forks) as anybody wishes, important is how it grows from there. Most probably it will just die within few mining blocks and thus will not carry any monetary value. And yes, anytime one forks USD to VSD/WSD/YSD/XSD/ZSD they are essentially copying the ledger from that snapshot, with your address having same balance as its fork-parent.
"Better" is incorrect and presumptive. I'm frequently bound by idiotic networks that prohibit P2P in every possible form they can obstruct, including (through no fault of its own) WebRTC.
The question i have is why do users configure their terminals to use colours that are unreadable to them?

If your blue doesn't look right on your dark background, why are you using that blue?

If your yellow doesn't look right on your light background, why are you using that yellow?

I mean i get how this can be a problem with hard-coded arbitrary values — you can't ever guarantee that e.g. #ff6600 will go with anyone's particular colour scheme. But these 8 or 16 standard colours are not hard-coded, they're configurable in every terminal i've ever used, including Windows's shitty command prompt. They can and should be set to a value that's appropriate for your background and text colours.

Maybe this is more a fault of the terminal/theme developers for providing unusable defaults. idk.
For me the real benefit of bitcoin is how easy it makes it to send money on the internet. If society at large treated bitcoin like a currency (i.e. suitable for settling all debts, whether public or private), the ease with which it can be sent online without intermediaries, anywhere in the world is what's really great about it.

Internet money, true international internet money. That's what I like about it. If you just ever care about USD and everything you do in your life is in USD and you live in the US, there's little value in bitcoins. When I got started getting paid for IRC math tutoring, from people I had never met, whose identity I didn't know and didn't care about, but who could send me money if I just gave them a bitcoin address; that's when I really started to like bitcoins.

I think bitcoin's utility is a separate question from regulations and taxes. Unlike most other bitcoin proponents, I like regulations and taxes, and I would be happy for whatever laws society thinks we need around bitcoins. I've paid sales tax with bitcoins when I've bought stuff with bitcoins from online retailers who accept them.

The problem I have with banks is that I just think that they are awfully inefficient. Their security features are awfully inconvenient and theatrical. I mean stuff like password requirements and website design, not stuff like being able to roll back incorrect or fraudulent transactions (which, btw, didn't work for me; the one time I had my debit card skimmed the bank didn't do me a whit of good in getting my money back).

Sending Bitcoins is as easy as sending email. Some banks in parts of the world let you do almost that, but it's just not as easy and convenient, and it's certainly not international.

That seems likely. In imprecise terms:

A/C efficiency ("power factor") is measured using the ratio of heat (energy) moved outside to the amount of energy put into the air conditioner , which is usually >> 1 unless there is a huge temperature difference between inside and outside.

An ideal furnace has a 1:1 ratio of heat energy injected into the house to energy used to run the furnace. Heat pumps can get over 1:1 ratios, but come with caveats and are more expensive than A/C units.

Also, you can make it feel cooler with a dehumidifier, which often is more efficient than cooling. For furnaces, you need a sweater, but your article assumed a 70F indoor target.

My problem is that I like having full and exact file sizes, and I like that they really make order-of-magnitude differences stand out in a listing (by taking up an extra column); but if I look at a number longer than five or so digits it's difficult to quickly see how many digits it is, and hence my quick glance can be off by an order of magnitude.

In a program that natively makes strong use of colour, though, here's an option: print exact file sizes, but in two related colours (say, bright yellow and dark yellow/brown), as follows: the first colour for the first 1, 2, or 3 digits, and the other for the remaining $n$ digits where $n$ is divisible by 3. That way the first colour will represent a whole number of KB, MB, GB, etc—and which of these it is will be very clear as it's easier to get that rough-count size—and the fainter/darker colour would give the full exact number of bytes. Best of both worlds!

I had interventional radiology brain surgery three times. I got a decent medical dose of fentanyl. I was strapped onto a surgery table awake because I had to hold my breath every time they put tools into my brain. I could see the x-ray image of the tools going into my brain in the corner of my eye on the screen above the table. With fentanyl the world was right as rain, however, I didn't feel any desire to have it again after. The feeling wasn't happy, sad, high, speedy, or low. It was just everything was ok.
I was put on ADHD meds as a 4 (almost 5) year old after my first violin lesson, this was back in the mid-90s. My mom said it was the weirdest thing she'd ever seen: I so badly wanted to sit still and listen because I wanted to learn to play the violin but I literally physically could not do it and became visibly frustrated with myself. And a bad change in meds in 1st grade (because I didn't like the bitter tablets) was enough for my 1st grade teacher to contact my mom about my change in behavior. It was only as an adult that I realized this must have been the few days where I got in trouble and had to sit out during recess, which was humiliating to me. I have anecdotes for days about this kind of stuff.

I am eternally grateful my parents took me to a psychiatrist when they saw some aspect of my behavior wasn't normal and that it was affecting my quality of life, even if I was far too young to know or understand that. I think it was the humane thing to do, 100%.

People talk a lot about how terrible it is that 5 year olds are put on this shit, but extreme cases like mine are out there and they are legitimate. Sometimes things show up early because they're severe enough. It'd be fucked up if 10 year olds on SSRIs was the norm, but I have no doubt that there are rare cases where it'd almost be cruel /not/ to do it. Bipolar can absolutely be diagnosed in children. If you can diagnose it that early, why wouldn't you start treating it? Isn't that what you SHOULD do as a parent?
having left it there, how do you feel?
I'm currently reading Southeast Asia in the Age of Commerce by Anthony Reid. It's well written history, and the topic has some interesting aspects.

The view of Europe from 20 thousand kilometres is quite insightful. The big patterns stand out, as power shifts from the Spanish to the Dutch and then to the British. The different things that those people are trying to achieve in Asia neatly summarise the different things that they might have valued at home.

It's also interesting to see a long term situation where land is abundant, and labor is the scarce resource. Women get liberated (or so Reid claims). Battles are fought in order to take the other army from its land, not the land from the army. Labour productivity is so high, and construction materials so easily available; 3 days after an event like Hurricane Katrina, the city has been rebuilt and life is back to normal.

Wanting to distribute something externally does not mean that you want to release it publicly. Lots of "internal" tools are distributed to teams at partner companies and contractors, for example.

And more generally, the internal tool of today can become the hit add-on to your existing product of tomorrow, or a new product line. You want to retain flexibility.

Legal departments aren't just being paranoid when they insist on avoiding GPL-licensed code if at all possible.
For this reason when I list in -h mode I pretty much also need to sort by size (ls -lSrh).
I'd suggest describing it as a "colourful alternative" rather than a "modern replacement", because no-one will be removing /bin/ls with exa installed. "Replacement" strongly implies removal of the thing being replaced, as with "replacement hip", "replacement CEO" etc.

As for why anyone might feel aggrieved about replacement of core Unix services, my mind immediately drew a (possibly unfair, but emotionally comparable) parallel with systemd.

Yes! I've been thinking of something like this for a while.

For the sake of simple data integration, I think this sort of architecture is optimal. As it stands, Spark is basically already a distributed database without its own storage engine; tighter integration with a transactional storage engine means that you could get the full power of OLTP and OLAP (HTAP) under the same interface.

Imagine that you could process transactions in Spark (pushing them down to the distributed storage engine), and then Spark could automatically use the changes to update a materialized view, and you could serve the updated materialized view directly from Spark for real-time decision support, using SQL plus richer analytics like machine learning, graph processing, etc. It's not quite a one-size-fits-all [1] database, but it's close.

Put a PostgreSQL or MySQL wire protocol server in front of it, and application developers won't even have to know that they're using Spark.

(I'm glossing over the fact that Spark currently isn't very good at transaction processing in the sense that it literally doesn't have much of a write API right now -- i.e. support for equivalents of SQL `begin`, `commit`, and rollback`, and updates/upserts in general -- but I think that's reasonably easy to add by pushing down this functionality to capable storage engines.)

> Where do they get off telling customers they can't withdraw an asset for five months?

When they say it will take them time to implement, it's an honest statement. They literally have to implement software, do lots of code review, check their accounting, pentesting, or at least they should be doing these things, and 5 months is an unusually short timeline. Even if they took 10% as fee to hire extra developers to work on this project, 5 months is not guaranteeable at all.

The short timelines proposed for hard-forks is one of the reasons why so many bitcoin developers have voiced caution about hard-fork proposals: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Segwit_support (far right columns)

Cryptsy was quickly installing random altcoins on their servers until one of the 200 coins they installed ended up being malware (a reverse shell or whatever) and poof goes their exchange, plus or minus some other possible fraud occurring. There is value to caution and review when upgrading software systems.... much less financial systems. With backwards-compatible upgrades, you can be more certain about the net impacts. For example, if the changes were compatible with the pre-existing bitcoin rules, then none of this new coin stuff would have happened, and the whole industry could benefit from the compatible upgrades.
The same problem accompanies definitions of "free speech." People may be interested in broadening the concept of free speech so that it shelters harassment, abuse, hate speech, and generally toxic behavior, and allows communities compatible with those behaviors to drive out communities incompatible with them, and effectively take over communication platforms. Some people even use "free speech" to mean creating automated twitter bots to intentionally push false news stories or reddit bots to manipulate vote totals for stories (this is admittedly an extreme view, but I have seen it expressed first hand by people who don't think it's extreme at all.)

Who gets to decide draw the line between the sincere desire for free speech, and extending the line to include disingenuous calls for "free speech" which are designed to shelter forms of toxic and manipulative behavior that people are just using as a tool to push their preferred ideology?
the law is a piece of the puzzle. I think that would be a tough approach in u.s. culture as you present it. For one, all it takes to get someone executed is a dishonest officer. Also, planting drugs on someone or their property seems like an "easy" way to get rid of them without a conspirator.

I see how that can work in some cultures and countries. I just think that approach wouldn't be very effective in the US. Probably not effective in countries larger than a few thousand square miles even with strong cultural support.

The common stock isn't "worthless", it's the stock options to later-stage employees that are possibly worthless, or at least worth less than imagined. The lesson here is to never rush to judgement about the value of your options at a startup. You need to think about "how much more will the company be worth when I exercise vs how much it was worth when I joined", vs the less meaningful "I have XXX dollars worth of options".

And yes, I am aware of the inherent discount for ISOs, so as an employee you still stand to make about 2/3rds the value of your options if the company is worth about as much as it was when you joined. This makes me a little suspect of the stated $15 strike price for ISOs, that doesn't sound like the typical 2/3 discount unless if the stock was privately worth $30-45/share at grant time.

FWIW, SGML also has LINKTYPEs (in addition to DOCTYPEs) for declaring presentation properties using normal attribute declaration syntax. A LINKTYPE can contain a state automaton assigning link attribute values to content elements and for transitioning to other states, but, unlike CSS, doesn't use regular patterns. This system makes sense for print, where a standard task is to assign different horizontal margins on even and odd pages. Using SGML LINK, this can be implemented by declaring two states transitioning to one another over page elements. A regular expression pattern language like CSS, OTOH, can't express the necesssary logic, hence CSS has a large number of extra predicates.

I am an American who has lived in Thailand for several years.

The US has a huge drug problem and SE Asia doesn't even come close. The local population does not abuse drugs at all. Nearly all of the drug trade caters to American/European tourists. Which is incidentally why the punishment is so harsh, they do not tolerate foreigners poisoning their society.
