There are several mistakes that I keep seeing over and over again.

Short term-ism. It seems to stem from the need to report financially on an annual basis, which means everything gets tied to that - bonuses, sales discounts, hiring, project deadlines. The reality is that many extremely worthwhile things take longer to do than whatever time is left in this financial period and are harmed by trying to shortcut, sometimes irreparably. Tying everything to an arbitrary accounting period often encourages behaviour from management that is counter productive in the longer term. Yes a company has to report, but it doesn't have to treat those end of year numbers like they are the basis for everything.

Distrust. Often management simply do not trust their employees to know better than them. I've seen senior management who haven't got their hands dirty for two decades overruling far more qualified and experienced people on technical and operational decisions inappropriately with disastrous consequences (e.g. a new product suite developed over five years for a 9 figure sum arrives on the market on a legacy platform with far less functionality than what it is attempting to replace). Usually this stems a senior manager assessing risks poorly where they are in unfamiliar territory.

Lack of empathy. I've lost count of the number of initiatives and re-organisations and changes introduced top down style which fail miserably because there is zero engagement from employees. Usually the management have simply forgotten to think about what a change means to them and how it will affect their work. The assumption seems to be if a change makes a business easier for a manager to manage, it must be the right thing - even if that makes the people that do the work less effective. Often there's a drive to make revolutionary changes for the wrong (career enhancing) reasons. Usually it's better to encourage change to happen organically at all levels of the organisation and often it's better to evolve. People are people, if you don't take that into account and empathise you will have a bad time.
Almost every approach to concurrency fits into either shared memory or message passing.

Those that cross between the two are usually notable for doing that and describe themselves as a hybrid approach.

I think it divides the literature pretty cleanly in two.
It's been more than 3 years since the military staged a coup and has been ruthlessly suppressing dissent using the lese majesty laws and other laws they enacted that make it illegal to protest against the government. Tourist arrivals just keep increasing to record levels[1]. Tourists don't care, at least not enough to choose a different destination.

> The really impressive feat will be an AI that uses the same sensory information to make decisions (and I really hope that's where the openai will head next)

Impressive? Yes. Interesting? Not as much. We consider AI important not because it can play Dota. We consider stronger AI important for making our lives easier by solving problems. For AI to solve our problems we will not unnecessarily restrict it to our sensory information.
It is a non issue.

Look, the spirit behind free speech is the principle of the bazaar of ideas.

The place where everyone can meet, exchange and learn. If someone sells something and it's distasteful, well you learn that you don't like it.

That's the spirit, which too many people don't understand, or don't go far enough to understand.

In this bazaar are now thugs, they sell wares designed to disrupt the bazaar, to addict customers, and to stop more complex goods from being sold.

They choose to disrupt the bazaar, and they count on those who repeat "free speech", to tie themselves down and not stop them.

Like a child taunting someone by saying "prove that 2+2 is not = 5."

Valid questions which have hard proofs are regularly used to tie up discussion. It's done intentionally in order to "win".

There's no victory here- the opposition isn't playing by the rules. when there is no good faith, then there is no discussion.
Your sexual orientation might not be a choice, but if and how you express it definitely is. "Oh, yes, Jews are subhuman. One bread please." is on the same level as "I love me some pussy, obviously, because i'm a man. One bread please".
>ideology is organized around killing people based on the color of their skin, it deserves no space in modern society

Please explain why you think a comment that basically said we shouldn't persecute people for crimes of thought/opinion/speech makes that implication.
> threading is shared memory and multiprocessing is message passing

In most cases, yes. You can use shared memory buffers for IPC, though, although it typically requires more effort.

> Not when they start organizing murder, no.

I think you are misinformed (I assume you talk about natzis).

Not all natzis are violent or are looking for violence. There are plenty of pre-war natzis that loved how Hitler pulled their country from dispair of economical and technological swamp, created economy of solid growth and created hundreds of thausands of jobs. Up to this point Hitler was an incredible leader and actually all those real successes as a politican made him being voted to become Germans fuerer.

As with any other group or person views, a reasonable person never agrees with anyything they say or believe. Thats called fanatism. Look at Trump. Mamy things he do or say are reasonable and as a POTUS he sould be praised for. On the other hand you shouldnt agree with him when he talks crap.

So its wrong to say all natzis are looking for violence, just like its wrong to say all Muslims are looking to blow thmeselves up in crouded spot.
Yes, you should have been much clearer and yet you weren't. My comment was not an insult, it literally meant what it said.
cofounder was struggling paying rent. Not the best start and my advice is to have a honest talk with all cofounders about their finances from the beginning.
Well you could be like IBM which sells remote working solutions but has banned it for their own staff. Or maybe that was HP, or both.
Apparently the line is crossed when the site says Cloudflare literally supports their ideology.
Existence is not enough, you have to prove it is the average. The 10x programmer is not 10x vs the worst programmer, but 10x vs the crowd.

Most people could beat a par 3 in less than 30 strokes given 1 week of exposure to golf.
I think it was probably a tongue in cheek statement (since a lot of people would have accused them of being secret Nazis over this eventually) that Cloudflare took seriously, or at least saw as a good excuse to shut them down to appease some people while positioning themselves as strong supporters of free speech on the internet at the same time.
I don't know how that has to do with anything. A name is just a label we apply to concepts. A discriminatory group is still in the wrong in my opinion.
My local public library branch and high school library (LA County; San Gabriel Valley) carried BYTE and you could easily find it in computer and book stores in the 1980s. By the 1990s it was on its way out, but it was as mainstream as any other computer pub of its time.
Oh, really? So I would suggust you to go to the North Korea and give democracy and civil rights talk there, publicly. No? Why not, are you ignoring your duties or just being hypocrite? Nothing personal, just a thought experiment.

Edit: please give a thought out answer, not just silent downvote :)
Very much depends on how you employ the frequency limits. If you say "You can only do 300 actions per minute", the bot could make all 300 actions in the first second if it sees that as optimal, breaking the latency limits. If you however say "You can only do 1 action after waiting 200ms since the last action", the bot will have to choose one optimal action every 200ms, effectively limiting the input latency.

No. Just no.

Islamists =/= Muslims

The honest comparison would be to ask if anyone who professes to be a member of Al Qaeda or ISIS, is considered a criminal by simple association.

And if they provide "material support or resources" (like organising/publishing/translating, at the lower end of terrorist criminality) they would be so.
For those on the lazy web like me; the answer is fill a hollow plastic counter weight with water when the machine is installed rather than lug great slabs of concrete round the world.

Well, that explains why you still haven't realized that the comment you took offense with was actually concordant with your own position.
I don't find these articles terribly convincing. It's typical for monuments to be built decades after the event they commemorate. The world war 2 memorial in DC wasn't built until 2004.

Also, any election alternatives for desktop that specifically don't use a browser DOM? Something like react native for Linux/osx/windows or QT.
To me though as an outside observer it seems that the dota problem is harder than the car problem. There's too much action going on, too many visual/aural cues to keep track of, team cooperation/coordination, fog of war, etc.

Car AI is important because there are real life-or-death consequences, but the problem (again to my limited experience) seems more tractable: path choices are limited, action is rare, there's no team element and there's no competition. Even for human drivers driving a car in a city or motorway is a tedious, mostly repetitive task. Now, competitive driving raises the stakes and we haven't seen any self-driving car tackling that problem yet (which will definitely raise a lot of eyebrows)
I also would not suspect that this could help, but we noticed that he did not react to my sister' dog, that has a very strict diet (below) but was reacting to other dogs. So it made sense to try switching the diet before giving up on the dog.

Before my dog was getting a mix of dry and "wet" food, from various companies, and occasional scraps from the table. Currently we only feed him dry food from Orijen, and plan on introducing some other "wet" food soon. He's also getting a good quality bones with a lot of bone marrow, and about once a week some boneless sardines in olive oil.
Which would still be a technicality because it's a specific edge case to the rule

- Given EXTENUATING circumstances, the choice may be difficult to exercise.

And even then - many people exercised that right, even knowing the risks - because it was just the right thing to do, and being a nazi wasn't.
But I want to know exactly what and how the people who "hate" me think. The idea that censorship solves the problem is pretty flawed; I assume Trump got elected in part by people who felt they couldn't speak their own thoughts out loud anymore. Just like with the Google memo, you create silent resentment instead of keeping a debate open (in as far as some of these people are capable of debate – that's another discussion). You can stick a Nazi label on pretty much anything you don't like, it doesn't mean it's a good idea to censor the other side to death and pretend their concerns don't exist, even if some of those concerns are inapprehensible or appalling.

In some European countries, you were (and well, still are) not allowed to say certain politically incorrect things out loud, which in some countries gave the far right a lot of votes and almost a majority. So people didn't grieve their concerns out loud, but the resentment came out amplified in votes and by other means... While an open debate would likely have created a better atmosphere and perhaps have presented some solutions.

In the long run, you are doing yourself a disservice not pulling everybody into the debate, including terrorists and people sliding into that direction.

I think censorship should be avoided, unless there is a direct and unambiguous call to violent action or a clear violation of other peoples' personal privacy (e.g. "doc'ing", releasing personal information that harms a person).

Cloudflare here admits that large companies are increasingly gatekeeps to the internet, especially in the case of controversial content. They have made a trade-off, and this is probably more about philosophical considerations or personal ideology, but I'd have put freedom of speech and neutrality before censorship of questionable content.
I'll take a picture and post it as well. Thanks.

Because it wasn't a priority. Plastic is more expensive than concrete. It's only now that "look how green we are" is able to tip the balance to where it's worth implementing.

If someone really wanted they could come up with a more complicated counterbalance solution and probably eliminate the dead weight entirely.

I really want to see how they came up with their numbers. I suspect that they're overly optimistic. +/-100lb isn't going to matter for fuel consumption in the last mile and the CO2 cost of picking up and replacing one that failed under warranty would likely negate many hundreds of machines worth of reduced fuel consumption before the last mile.
Holocaust denial is not something people come to accidentally or through a rational evaluation of the evidence. It's something people reach through anti-semitism. What do you think the reactions of someone denying the holocaust in the past would be to evidence of more genocide being planned in the present or future? Deniers are signalling their willingness to help genocide by turning a blind eye to it. They're showing that fear or hatred of Jews is more important to them than facts.
Great suggestion. Thanks!
Nearly everyone is already there, and the number that isn't continues to fall every year. Yes everyone already has email, but list management and group organization is much worse. Even compared to Google groups.

And the fact is that most people prefer it.
Newer washing machines have less concrete in them that before - My guess would be that in the past the water tank would have been to large to actually fit the machine.

I also wonder how the plastic will stand up to the vibrations. You might get leaks because the plastic will flex and eventually rupture from stress.

The reason why newer machines have less counterweight is that the motors are electronically regulated these days. That means you can partly dampen vibrations with the motor instead of with weights.
The problem with this is that your definition applies to literal Nazis, and it's effectively become a fad to call people Nazis who aren't even remotely. The media being partly to blame with the Trump/Bannon/Brietbart 'fascist'/'white supremacist' hysteria.
That's like a huge "duh, why didn't they do that" sort of thing. Wow. Theoretically, they could probably make all of the free space in the washer part of a giant tupperware style container and allow filling of different compartments to precisely balance the machine.
That will be very sad place when business is forced to service someone even being against it for their personal believe, just because that something is not their choice but rather a set in stone fact.

My brother in law is mentally ill.m and his local diving center won't take him for a dive. I have to ask him to sue them for refusal of service based on his sicknes and because his sickness is not his choice.
I find innovations like this wonderfully elegant when they're so obvious in hindsight. It boggles the mind nobody thought of this before. There must be other problems with radically better obvious-in-hindsight solutions out there too.
Hm, inspiring. I think I still may have an original op code card for the 6809 somewhere.
I'd be interested in hearing more about the accessibility changes?

But I think the popularity of "retro" aesthetics and mechanics signals that progress in games is not at all linear.
> I would also add that the rules should be as specific as possible, since vague terms like "hateful ideology" can be applied to almost anything controversial.

I didn't say "Yup, hateful ideology", I said "Yup, Nazis."

They run around with torches and swastikas and celebrate murder. What's controversial about that, and what does Twitter have to do with anything? I don't use Twitter. It's very telling how people constantly drag in shit like that to bloat and pad. Face Hannah Arendt, face Sebastian Haffner, face Erich Fromm; but your ignorance and shallowness will not keep me from shaking you and any other comers off.
>, but it was as mainstream as any other computer pub of its time.

We remember differently. Yes, the libraries had BYTE but again, I'm talking about relative popularity. As another datapoint, the 1980s grocery stores' magazine section which of course would be much smaller than Barnes & Noble would have PC Magazine and Computer Shopper but they never carried BYTE. BYTE was always more niche than PC Magazine which lowered the number of retail outlets where it could be purchased.

PC Magazine covered applications (Lotus 123, MS DOS, etc) and games which was relevant to a larger population. BYTE was never a magazine for the "masses".
It does when the interest rate you have to pay on the mortgages you have over the properties can no longer be controlled. If you were the owner of many houses in 2007 and we used bitcoin rather than dollars you would have been in for a world of pain.
This has already has a name, and the eminent Karl Popper describes its precepts better than I: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance.
So your point is some of the Nazis were reasonable other than the ones that want to commit genocide?

It doesn't even hold up today because you are saying historically there were Germans that supported the Nazi party because of Hitler's leadership in other areas. But we're in 2017 where everyone knows that Nazis committed a genocide. So anyone like the Daily Stormer that supports Nazis we know to be dangerous. And It's okay to not do business with dangerous people who want to harm innocents.

To your point about Muslims, we know that there are millions of peaceful non-violent practicing Muslims. You are trying to make a logical equivalency here and what I believe is more important is the facts that we know about the real world we live in. Supporting Nazis is explicit support of genocide. Practicing Islam has an unfortunate overlap with violent terrorists. But practicing Christianity also has an unfortunate overlap with domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh and Dylan Roof. I don't think existing in this theoretical world of forced equivalency even benefits your argument as much as you believe it does.
A forum is just a kind of website. And people get banned for spamming or trolling forums where they're not welcome all the time. But they're not imposing on anybody in their likeminded forums.
It's not the type of programming I'd write, but what I'd write it in... I develop web apps.. which are mobile friendly, but I've yet to really have any desire to break into the iOS and Android app market.
Being Irish, Jewish, gay or black are not choices (for the most part, anyway) and do not inherently imply that you're intolerant of any other group. Being Nazi, on the other hand, is clearly a choice, and intolerance is inherent to it. I think the difference is clear.

Now they recommend sand which probably would be less inclined to grow mold and bacteria in a warm enclosed environment.

My bigger question is: why do U.K. front loaders need a large counter vibration mass? My 10 year-old LG direct drive unit has no weights at all.
I don't know that it's fair to place Neo-Nazis in the same set as moderate Republicans (i.e. all "right wing" people in the US). I feel like there's a particular kind of person that joins extremist organizations and commits terrorist acts, and Muslim extremists have more in common with Neo-Nazi terrorists than they do with moderate Muslims. Likewise, I suspect (hope) moderate Republicans have more in common with moderate Muslims than they do with right wing extremists.

But, the way so many have jumped to defend Neo-Nazis or redirect blame for their violence has me pretty shook. I don't really know how to process someone looking at Charlottesville and saying, "it's the fault of the left". It doesn't even make sense, much less help the nation heal, and a lot of people with a lot of influence are doing it.

It's pretty much terrifying that we have a president that is among the ranks of Neo-Nazi apologists, and that a large percentage of GOP leadership has said nothing. Maybe I'm giving moderate Republicans too much credit. Neo-Nazi leaders certainly feel vindicated by what's been coming out of a lot of mainstream Republican talking heads lately.
Someone said that being surrounded by bad or malicious IoT devices would be indistinguishable from being haunted.
I wonder when active damping systems will come to washing machines. You'll need sensors to measure vibrations, a control unit and some small but fast actuator coupled to a small counter weight.

The technology shouldn't be much different to the noise cancelling earphones I'm wearing right now. But with a larger actuator.
Only issue might be the container not being 100% full causing the water inside to slosh and increase the vibrations. (Probably not that hard to solve)
I somewhat doubt that a hollow plastic tank is significantly more expensive than a concrete block. Factor in the added cost of shipping the much heavier concrete block, and it seems like the manufacturer would also save money in the process.
god dammit, yet another stupid idea I thought nobody would ever like.

ps: same goes for almost every dead weight transport. Road blocks, you name it.

Someone computes the wasted energy ?

pps: what about vertical axis spinning models ? I remember people saying they were inneficient. Anyone can explain ?

ppps: I remember a guy in africa coupling a dead bike to a vertical spinning container. sigh
