I think the subsidation is actually kind of neat actually. I may subsidize a ton of stuff I'll never watch for a bunch of other people but they're simultaneously subsidizing a bunch of niche programs for me which may never have been produced otherwise due to the niche nature of the content.

Similarly by buying the package deal instead of the individual content there's mors opportunity for me to discover content I might otherwise never come across just by having access to the opportunity to browse big long lists of random stuff available to me.

In a way it allows me to both delve deeper into my bubble while also giving me ways to escape it.

That being said, I kind of miss and sometimes return to the good ol' antenna where a show may play once or twice and turn off. I never find binging a show actually provides me anywhere near the enjoyment that watching a show once a week and building anticipation does.
Very helpful, thank you. I will look into these.

I can guarantee you that I have jumped over to my browser when doing a compile that is definitely limited by my machine. I'm ok doing this knowing that I will only take up so much work on my machine. I do not go off and kick off another giant compile at the same time.

Now, if the browser becomes more and more consuming, hitting my browser could get closer and closer to kicking off another giant compile.

The sequential traversal code is separate and does not have parallel overhead. On a single core machine you will get the sequential traversal.

I have all kinds of theories about what actually happened. All I really know for sure, is that a bunch of wild accusations were thrown around at the execs by a small clique of powerful investors, with new accusations being generated as old ones failed to stick. Then the execs were fired for unmentioned reasons and sworn to silence, with the threat that no employees would be paid if anyone broke silence or failed to follow the orders of the interim CEO (total stranger).

This all happened over a single weekend. Considering that we were in a monarchy, and some of investors were royalty, I took that as my cue to get the F out of Dodge before my passport got locked. It took me a while to recover from the stress and the trauma; not knowing what ever happened makes it hard to put it behind me.

Even now, I am afraid to share too much detail, because I am unsure of how that would affect the people who remained in the country. Always have an emergency exit ready to go; $5K in cash will get you across most borders, if you play your cards right.

Everything else is 'clearly' a service? On what basis? You buy a product, it has these features, you can do these things, that's the product.

Being able to play music on a 'smart speaker' from my phone isn't a service, it's just a feature of the product. If you sell a product with features that require you to host some servers somewhere publicly accessible on the internet, that doesn't make that product feature a service.

Don't like that? Don't include those features in your product. Design them better so you don't have to forever maintain these servers.
That is a big "ostensibly" there. Hard data showing this would be somewhat nice.

No. You do. Otherwise you're not reporting the accident and eating the repair bills yourself. Unless you live in a no-fault state, in which case your insurance only ever applies to yourself and damages from other drivers to you are covered by your own insurance.

Otherwise, whomever is at fault (and their insurance by proxy) are responsible for damages caused to the other driver and their vehicle.

You can choose to not press charges, but that only means you're going to pay for the full repair bill out of pocket.

You also can't take money that doesn't exist. So someone without insurance likely doesn't have a huge savings to pull from. Which is why underinsured and uninsured motorist coverage is available.

> Insurance is mandatory, hence the 'filling out a form'.

Insurance is mandatory in the states too. But that doesn't mean people never drive uninsured, I'm sure it's the same in the EU. What happens if an uninsured driver hits you? You pay the bill entirely out of your own pocket with no repercussions for the uninsured?

Again, from one of the top results of your Google search earlier

You're right that Liu's paper does use external electrodes. And as for Sakimoto's paper it's true that the cadmium should be reusable indefinitely, but if you read the second page it's clear than cysteine is consumed in stoichiometric amounts. I'd be excited to hear about more recent work which improves upon this and would be happy to be corrected.
Hm. I don't quite see how to do it, but I think I know one of the tricks you have in mind. If you have the book Hacker's Delight handy, open it up to 10-17, "Test for Zero Remainder after Division by a Constant". With n<=100 you can get an intermediate result with a single 32-bit multiply and mask that will allow testing divisibility by 3 and 5 each with a single operation (and a bit of union trickery to access high bits without counting as an operation). I just don't see how to make the test 'not a multiple of 3 or 5' come out of that in one C operation yet. So maybe this isn't the right technique.
I agree it's a concern. If you're in a Mac I'd recommend doing time machine backups as well. I consider those my first resort backups for file recovery and such. My Backblaze backups are a worst case scenario, belt and braces off site option.

Even my time machine backups only go back about a year though due to capacity limitations on the backup drive. My most critical files are also on Dropbox, which I know isn't really backup but it's nice to have as an extra recovery option.
I think it's in conjunction with the 1.1 release which adds a few things.
You have to deal with Roku UX and their apps' UX then, though. The spotify Roku app is a particularly terrible one when I tried a couple months ago. Went back to the store and got a Chromecast later the same night.

(Spotify, of course, is also a problem on Apple TV, though - but overall I find Chromecast + ATV, or FireTV, way better than Roku, if you've got the budget. Or just Xbox One.)

>The stock market is the mechanism that provides value

If this was true in every circumstance, please consider why "market makers"[1] exist within the NYSE and London stock exchanges. If the stock market itself provides the value, buyers and sellers should find "market makers" redundant with zero value-added -- but that doesn't happen.

Therefore, I propose that one doesn't compare investment bank IPO underwriters to a naked stock exchange. Instead, compare the underwriter to a "market maker". The underwriter can be seen as the first market maker for the initial offering. That's worth something to many owners of companies looking to get liquidity.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_maker#In_stock_exchange
> (Maybe not a 3% underwriting fee but it's definitely worth something.)

That's a good point, and applies to all of the previous poster's examples. Does your underwriter work 10x as hard to underwrite a 1B IPO than a 100M IPO? Is it 10x harder for a realtor to sell a $1M house than a $100K house? Does Visa work 10x harder on processing a $100 payment than it does on a $10 payment? It's crazy that these "services" charge a percentage of the transaction price. Why don't these guys get paid by the hour like most professional services? I'd love to get paid a fixed percentage of the price of the products that I work on, but that's ridiculous!
Under the old plan you could pay $10 for 2-10 devices, whereas now it is $10 per device, so the price change is a bit more than you suggested.
'Smart' Pill Bottles Aren't Enough to Help the Medicine Go Down
I'd say we're in a new golden age, after which we'll have a bunch of generic, open source implementations with very little need to engage in that type of development again.

This is actually happening all over the tech world -- companies like Google and Amazon are intentionally commoditizing key technology in their supply chain where there are a few powerful vendors extracting rents from everyone (see Cisco in the late 90s/early 00s).

Just remember that 50 years ago, Ethernet didn't exist as a concept. This stuff moves fast, so the fact that your skillset has been useful for 40+ years tells me that it's probably not going to be highly valued for too much longer :)
This was sorted out back in the dial-up days when providers (including the one I worked for) offered "unlimited" dial-up service.

Customers sometimes argued that they should be able to stay connected 24/7 all month long because that's "unlimited".

Our definition (that we indicated in our terms) was "you will never be billed a surcharge for usage during a month", but there was no guarantee of being able to use a certain number of hours. So we reserved the right to de-prioritize (i.e. disconnect) high-usage users during peak times to allow other users to get on when our lines got full.

I'm sure somewhere in Crash Plan's terms of service they define what the term "unlimited" means in the context of their offering, and I would bet it means "there will never be a surcharge for usage of storage".

So they will never ding you for using more than X storage, but there's no guarantee that you can store a specific amount of data on the service.

The American Revolution isn't nearly as clear cut as that. It wasn't anti-taxation, it was anti-taxation without representation. The colonists were objecting to being taxed without having a say in the levying of the taxes. There were many colonial Americans who would have been happy returning Members to Parliament without independence.

The core of the issue really was that Britain defended the American colonies from French invasion during the Seven Year's War and the British taxpayer bore the brunt of the taxation (I can't remember exact figures, but Britons were taxed much, much heavier than Americans, even after the stamp duties and tea taxes). After the war, Parliament came looking for payback, understandably. So Britain wasn't using taxation to control the colonies, it was looking to recoup the costs of defending them.

On a sidenote, this is actually quite interesting in today's context over NATO military spending, where now it is Britain freeloading on American military spending.
This kind of mapping hit mainstream a few years ago. Look at the ground in most games, it's not actually 3D but does a damn good appoximation.

In some games you'll see real subdivision surfaces which are even more awesome but somewhat expensive.

I remember being super excited when these features were making their way from software rendering to GPU years back. I would guesstimate a very large fraction of the perceived increase in game graphics have come from these techniques in recent years.

PHI is an incredibly well-defined term legally and is not equivalent to PII. Some things that constitute PHI actually wouldn't qualify as PII.

There are a lot of resources that explain HIPAA in great detail; if you want to know the specifics like here, you have to read the bill and the case law itself.
I was going to make some awful joke about Peter Thiel wanting to drink her blood, but she kind of gets there first (sans Thiel references) in her final answer:

It’s not as sexy to talk about new genetic regulatory elements that control the aging process. That’s not going to get as many clicks as a story about drinking the blood of your five-year-old.

This is so crazy. I am increasingly hearing random non tech people talking about buying bitcoins or other tokens and imagining how they will get rich in a year when price keeps multiplying. I wonder how long can this mass frenzy go on.
From the OP, one suggestion is to collect "top-level+1 domains". This don't solve the issue of a person going to "starting_a_union_inside_company_x.com", which would be a top-level domain. Niche domains don't have a large number of users and as such the users can be trivial to deanonymized. It is also rather common that domain name servers have a private and public side. Firefox could easily become a vector of leaking from the private side, possible revealing sensitive information such as unannounced products.

From the OP we can also see that they don't intend to store IP-addresses, but it will always be possible. By using a anonymity network they can reassure the user and at the same time eliminate the risk that a malicious actor in the future will silently manage to start tracking information about which websites users go to. Additional benefits is that Mozilla also won't become a target for governments, a risk that no organization can ever be safe from if they start gather information about users.

It is not enough to strike a reasonable balance between the privacy-for-users and actionable-information-for-developers. You also need to find a balance between risk management and time spent on reducing risks. What I propose primarily is that they spend a bit more time on reducing risks, as that would benefit everyone.

Good eye. @ignostic, it's reporting the highest percent chance of precipitation by month, not lowest, in the textual summary of both cities.

I am not sure if synology allows for snapshots (I am sure there must be an option for that) but it certainly the cheapest solution over the long run. With cloudstation you can sync a folder to your NAS dropbox style (be careful to use a different user on each machine) which you can access from outside of your home if you open a port. You are in control of your data. Doesn't protect you against your home burning but you could have one in each home of the family. Modern hard drives are monstrously large. You don't need a massive system unless you have loads of data.

[Edit] actually you can probably just rsync the diskstation volume with a backup volume on the same NAS.

[Edit#2] actually you don't even need rsync. Synology has a utility called Hyper Backup that does time machine like incremental backups, either on the same NAS, or on a remote NAS.

If you're using TF 1.2.1 or above, you want to replace this line:

cell = tf.contrib.rnn.MultiRNNCell([drop_cell] * num_layers)

with:

cell = tf.contrib.rnn.MultiRNNCell([create_cell() for _ in range(num_layers)])

otherwise you'll be using the same weights for each LSTM layer and your model is less expressive.

No, that's about right. Take some time and go through autotrader.com. $15k isn't unusual for a used mid-value sedan with ~25,000 to ~65,000 miles. For example, look up Hyundai Sonatas, 2013, with that mile load, you'll see prices around $14,000 to $18,000.

Or check out Toyota Camrys, 2012 model year. You'll typically pay around $14,000 to $16,000 to get into one with 40,000 to 60,000 miles. So that's a 5+ year old car, a mid-value sedan, with a fair bit of mileage.

The average new car price is around $32,000.
