Awesome, thanks! We definitely offer trial versions to install on-prem with a built-in permanent 10-server license (via a one-liner), and we provide 30 (and sometimes 60) day free trials for however many servers you need for anyone who asks. Converting to production is just a matter of pasting a new key. We could probably make this a bit more clear on our website though (it's buried in our docs section[1])

That is a good point and that doc page is really incomplete. Upgrades are completely automatic in Userify, and without diving too deep into the `curl https | sh` debate :), security conscious are always well advised to do the regular curl > file.sh anyway, even with CA cert checks. Just a good idea.

> I feel like C++ proves exactly that you can't.

Depends on what you mean. At a minimum, I think it's clear that C++ has avoided a Python 2/3 style split in the community. This means that otherwise relatively conservative users (I'm thinking of users on supercomputers in this case) are upgrading quickly to new C++ compilers and standard versions.

On the other hand, C++ has always been a kitchen sink sort of language, and it is even more so now. As codes age, they tend to grow and not shrink in the feature set they use, and so long-lived codes will probably never completely escape the demons of previous versions, regardless of how nice the shiny new features are.
This is the best news I could wish for. Cheers!

They just get diced up and have no voice in state or federal government, and you end up with things like the NC and Texas bathroom bills.

Why would a company like Amazon move to a state who's already so wrong on human rights issues? That's just asking for boycotts and mass resignations.

I'd wager it's vastly more likely Whole Foods will move away than Amazon moves in. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the main motivations for HQ2 was to move Whole Foods, and anyone else they acquire, into Amazon proper.
It's interesting that word length emerges as such a clear proxy for difficulty. I often find it easier to think of a longer word or phrase (assuming no wordplay) than something short and obscure -- the parameter space is much smaller.

Also interesting to see the step increase between Thursday and Friday. This finding is consistent with my anecdotal experiences, but I doubt it's deliberate on the part of the editors. I think there is probably a technical explanation for this. For example, maybe there are fewer words available of medium to long length between the set of shorter words and multi-word answers, so no smooth transition between Thursday and Friday is possible.

So wouldn't the best thing be to make sure that no one can restrict others speech? If the law is as simple and broad as possible then we don't have to worry about the "wrong" people gaining control of the government. For example, the right to bear arms is a very simple constitutional right. There are many people who oppose it but since it is simple, so deeply embedded into the laws and a large group of people support it, it has been really hard to restrict.

If there was a law to be created today making a list of speeches that should be suppressed, what topics do you think would be on there? With the current government, probably things like making it illegal to claim that climate change is happening.

If the left really wants to protect themselves during the upcoming 3 years, I would expect them to try to make free speech as protected as possible before it is too late.
This kind of tax cuts should be illegal. The problem is that taxation itself is some kind of extortion from the state. So morally speaking it is a bankrupt system from all sides.
$50K for six years = You walk away with a $300K Masters which entitles you to a median salary of somewhere around $80K a year. Even if you go for a Bachelors (a mistake if you ask me) you'd walk away with $200K in debt, which is just as insane given the lower earning potential.

Payments are approximately as follows:

Pay it off in 20 years: $2,100 per month

Pay it off in 30 years: $1,800 per month

This means you'll pay somewhere around $504K to $648K.

If your gross pay is $100K per year that means that, in very rough terms, in California, your effective take-home pay is about $64K per year or $5,333 per month.

Out of that you need to take $2,000 every month for 20 to 30 years and pay your student loan.

That leaves you with $3,333/mo to live.

Median rent for a one bedroom apartment in Los Angeles is $2,000/mo.

You are down to $1,333.

It is nearly impossible to live without a car in a place like Los Angeles. Buy a crappy car and pay for car, gas and insurance. That will easily set you back $500 a month.

Now we are down to $833.

Food, say, about $400 a month.

Down to $433.

Utilities, well, let's say $250/mo to be kind.

Down to $183.

I am not accounting for buying clothes, toilet paper, toothpaste, furniture an occasional outing, etc.

Forget travel. Forget investing. Forget saving.

If you need health insurance you are screwed.

And that, right there, is a formula for financial slavery and pain for decades.

It also means you will almost never buy a house (in CA) unless you get married and your spouse does not come in with massive student loan debt like you. You might want to eliminate all your social interactions at Olin or risk marrying someone with $200K to $300K in debt, just like you.

Not zeroing in on Olin here. We have lots of universities that cost in the range of $40K to $60K a year. In Olin's case the article says that about 3% of the roughly 75 graduates every year become entrepreneurs (not necessarily successful). This means that fully 72 graduates do not. And they get out of there with what can only be described as massive unmanageable debt.

Certain degree programs, such as Mechanical Engineering, simply don't have high earning potential. Someone graduating with $300K in debt and one of these degrees in hand is starting life with a formula for suffering. There are plenty of reasonably priced schools that could cut the cost of these degrees in half and even less.

From my perspective, going to a place like Olin is a terrible mistake. It does not guarantee financial success. The only thing it guarantees is financial hardship. It's an example of how demented things have become due to just how easy it is to get student loans.
Thankfully, neither petroleum extraction nor climate science need be faith-based, so Homer-Dixon's personal beliefs aren't all that relevant. There are multiple studies (not funded by petroleum companies) that document why he's wrong (http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/4/1/0140... is a good metastudy). Grist.org is hardly a neutral source on the issue.

By all means, advocate for wide-scale reduction and elimination of the use of petroleum products. Demand that your representatives fight for carbon-neutral energy production. But pretending that boycotting Canadian products and instead consuming more coal, fracked shale oil and tanker-shipped crude from corrupt autocratic regimes is somehow an important part of solving the problem just makes you look like you're not paying attention. As does supporting corrupt officials and corporate misbehavior in places like Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and Venezuela over supporting an allied liberal democracy with a strong (at least in comparison) record of environmental stewardship and oversight on corporate activity.

Camfrog still reigns supreme IMHO. Voice and video chat with thousands of people at once, notifications are easily disabled so you can just focus on the conversation while doing your work, and if someone wants to show you something, all you have to do is click on their name to open their video window. The chat rooms can be set up to allow a single person to speak at a time or multiple people to speak simultaneously.

Even has a words filter so you can just filter out words you don't like from conversations, if you don't like vernacular.

So good Paltalk bought Camfrog just for the video tech, then resold it back to Camfrog.

The only real downside to Camfrog is a lack of chat history, excepting in your IMs. Rooms do not have a chat history (admins have log access, though.)

When these other apps provide a real chat function instead of it being a bolted-on afterthought, I might be convinced to switch. Until then, Camfrog's been the only social/chat/networking program/app that I've paid money for.

My guess is that Amazon will want to effectively "own" whatever city it selects. Not only will they get incentives from government, but they'll want to have primary influence over the business and educational communities. So that when Amazon wants something, the city will go along. This will give them a laboratory for all sorts of experiments, which is both fascinating and scary.

While a city like my hometown Atlanta makes sense on paper - transportation, great schools, awesome cost of living - there are too many other big players here. I think they want a next-generation "company town."

A business news organization seems like it would be biased toward explaining unemployment as a symptom of drug use rather than the other way around.

The ballot is secret – as long as the vote counters are not colluding, nobody can observe the votes in transit, and nobody can access all votes.

It's great if researchers can find new treatments, but I think people get over-enthusiastic with medical cannabis

> Anyone have some experience with this type of gear?

I would rather vaporize weed. Very simple and (likely) safe, effect is immediate and it's easier to adjust the quantity as you go.

I'm not sure about the gear but I cooked cannabis butter a few times (quite easy without special equipment). It's more difficult to control the quantity. You need to be careful to not ingest too much cannabis, because then it's too late and it can be very powerful. Conversely, if not enough, you have to wait for an hour or so to be sure. Another issue I had is that I ended up with a nice cake that I had to ration carefully as it was very psychoactive. I couldn't simply eat it whenever I felt like. Besides, the weed doesn't add a good taste (at best neutral, depending on the quantity).

I'm sure that these issues can be overcome with some experience but is it worth the trouble?

Apple has been a dishonest, anti-consumer, cargo cult designer since the beginning of personal computing and I can't wait until their time is over.

Just one example: The single button mouse. For the longest time the party line was "it's better for reasons", but everybody knew it wasn't which is why the first thing anybody purchased after buying a new Mac was a multi-button mouse. You didn't even have that choice with their laptops unfortunately. Internally, Apple's reasoning for keeping it was that it differentiated them from PCs and they didn't want to appear to be stealing from PC designs.

The court solved it is in one of the usual ways. From the decision[0]:

"Accordingly, whether plaintiff's claim to have invented e-mail is "fake" depends upon the operative definition of "e-mail". Because that definition does not have a single, objectively correct answer, the claim is incapable of being proved true or false."

Since defamation requires a false statement, and because the definition of e-mail can't be proven true or false, it can't be defamation.

I don't know; to me it doesn't seem like much of a cognitive tax to have some guard clauses that can easily be ignored at the beginning of a function and declaring arg types is less annoying than digging through a method trying to figure out what in the world the expected input is. It gives you a way to look at a pretty minimal portion of the code to figure out how to use it and otherwise treat it as a black box, ignoring the implementation details (well, ideally; of course there is some leakage).
