On the other hand, you'd be surprised with how little you actually need in order to survive and live a peaceful, happy life. Building regulations are fine - if you wanna be a normal, living a normal life, in a normal society.

But the world is a pretty big place. We don't all need these norms.

You might have a morally authoritative view on just what basic needs a human has, and certainly can justify these requirements with a human ideal forged in your own social context, but the real honest truth is, most of those ideals are arbitrary.

A lot of people can live without windows, especially if they're surrounded by nature 100% of the time, anyway. Plumbing? Who needs it if the rest of your property is set up for it - not everyone needs to live a decadent western lifestyle where running water is on demand within a few feet of your sleeping area, etc.

A lot of the world survives just fine without all of these requirements, and from that perspective this "romanticism" is less of a fantasy, and more of a "what if .. we could live simpler lives, instead of more complex ones" - and that is the real merit of articles like this. To push us outside the "glass-half-empty/-full" norms that, ultimately, a lot of us are trapped in.

I'd expect to find some "immune" "heretics". The usual ways of dealing with them would be employed. (legal, lethal and social pressure)

The big problem is that such degree of control could make democracy essentially irrelevant or extremely polarized, which is just as bad, democracy is supposed to reach a consensus. We're almost or already there at the second point.
The irony of the first ad I'm shown being a coffee machine with unrecyclable pods to fill it makes me both amused and sad. Sort of sums up the whole problem really.
"1. help a non-profit for a lower pay or even for free 2. contribute to open source projects 3. create a project of your own where you can show what you can do"

What's wrong with projects from previous full-time jobs? My most complex and interesting projects were done during paid hours and since I usually was the only person working on these projects, I can proudly call them "mine", despite being owned by an employer. From the perspective of an employee, if you demanded to have non-paid projects I would thank you for an interview and say "goodbye", even though I have some of these.

Thats the kind of BS math they shouldn't bother teaching. Most of math is about concepts, and if 5 year olds can grapple with super-basic calculus how about teaching 10 year olds proof-based math and concepts (closer to college level) than memorization?

Its kind of dumb how arithmetic is seen as a precursor to math when its really not. You could do an ENTIRE college-level course in linear algebra or calculus or graph theory or even combinatorics perfectly well even if you have no idea what 11*15 is off the top of your head and have to look it up every time.

Its just a ridiculously backwards approach to teaching. We don't teach CS by testing people on memorizing syntax and API calls - they are rightly relegated to "google it when you need it, eventually you'll remember it". Of course algorithms are more interesting and building things is more fun so we focus on that.

Current way of teaching math is just a historical accident IMO. No real reason it couldn't be conceptual and interesting from the start if there wasn't so much inertia around current systems.
Most people consider unikernels to be single process without threads.

IncludeOS is rather liberal and has rudimentary multicore support. There is no preemption however so the "threads" will have to yield if there are more threads than cores. So more like fibers than threads, really.

The hypervisor typically doesn't care. So if you are using multiple cores in your application it will schedule and de-schedule your VM as per the regular rules.

IncludeOS is capable of booting on bare metal and we have some basic SMP tests passing. This is currently mostly of academic interest but if you don't mind having no pre-emption you can, once we improve our hardware support, have an application that runs on multiple physical cores. Perhaps this might be of interest to people with very strict latency requirements.

Also I think it had it's time, great tool in the early days of web dev but not very professional, sure it was improved in recent years but why put so much energy in it instead of other projects like MariaDB or PostgreSQL before, especially now that it's owned by Oracle? I'm amazed by webdev discussing languages, frameworks and the best stack endlessly and then spawning a MySQL without thinking and looking at alternatives like it was 2004.

All I'm saying is that it's not important to be critical of farmers but of consumers. Were there not so much demand for cheap animal products, all these problems would not be there. Almost every breeder I've met enjoys caring for its animals, but the harsh truth is that a farm is a business and most decisions are money-based, and also that time is crucially limited (can't spend 2 hours everyday for weeks caring for one single animal).

The recent fipronil scandal I'm not especially hostile to. It's like the horse meat thing, no risk for the consumer, it's simple fraud from the antiparasitics producer afaik and not latent farmer malignancy. You're way more exposed if you use antiflea products on your pets... And fipronil is really low risk for mammals overall. Oh, and of course this was in the cheap industry side of laying hens, so your wallet could vote on this beforehand.

Yet people still don't want to spend more on food. Most already shop first price, its just not a priority when you need to get a new phone and other stupid stuff. And this is the exact kind of consumer who can leisurely insist that we need to be critical of farmers. Oh, the irony. Sweep before your own door, you know.

But good on you, I hope your taking part in this Facebook group (probably known for it's high scientific and intellectual qualities, as everything that is on facebook) is comforting enough that you don't have to drastically change your consuming and behavior (and chronically, as "scandals" break out, underlines that farmers have a HUGE responsability in this), because what a shame that would be.

PostgreSQL 10 will have support for ICU collations which should be much more stable across different installations. Since it is the first version it could have some rough edges, but I suggest giving it a spin.
True, but then you can sing a similar song about PostgreSQL being the kind of guy that is cool all around, and is always there for that high school sweetheart, but still that badass MySQL gets all the fun and is always center of the party, which is oh so wrong.
They do say that, rightly so from their point of view, and are somehow working on alternatives.

Without O_DIRECT, the page may be updated multiple times in the page cache before it hits the disk. The only thing PostgreSQL can do is to update the checksum before expelling the page from its own cache, so it will be doing unnecessary work in write-intensive workloads. But yes, hint bits and WAL is also a good point.
You're supposed to wash things, but they're washed again at the recycling plant because few people do it sufficiently thoroughly.
I think intentional obscurity is probably rare. I think it's more of an evolutionary explanation. We don't get old age illnesses in old age because they're useful, preventing old age illness is just less useful than preventing prime age illness.

Clarity is difficult, and if it rarely makes a difference to businesses then it gets left out.

One reason clarity is difficult is that it requires narrowing what you say. Measurable accountable and integrated business software solutions. From the outside this sounds pointless and meaningless. From the inside it sounds nice and wide, encompassing everything they do. Better too broad than too narrow.

People's CVs sometimes have the same problem, resistance to limiting language.

The reason it doesn't matter is the way they get business. In face-to-face sales, clarity is surprisingly unimportant. It can even hurt by allowing prospects to raise objections without the presence of a salesman. Basically, the company's marketing doesn't matter, so it sucks.
In Putin's Russia no big company can afford to not be close to Putin. Those who aren't get bought out or simply dispossessed (just look at VKontakte, Yukos and many other ones).

This might sound like "red scare", but, just like I would never use Google Mail if I were working for the Russian government, I would never use Kaspersky software if I was working for the US (or any other NATO) government.
I think the variability of a lot of renewables is why grid-scale energy storage projects are taking off (e.g. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/tesla-south-...).

With a decent quantity of storage and good interconnects to shift power from areas of high generation to other areas, it seems possible to balance out some of the issues you're referring to.
Thanks. I agree. Despite all the rhetoric, "hacking" the election has specific connotations and none have been proven.

Russia might have aided in smearing another unfit candidate in the court of public opinion - and that's social engineering not hacking. Social engineering which the US political parties (and indeed most democracies) are built on.

What could possibly go wrong?
I really don't understand how that can actually be a good iron in any way, shape or form. I've been doing hobby and production soldering for about 25 years.

What you need is an iron that will stay at 700oF whatever you throw at it tip or workpiece related. That means power, lots of it. That doesn't come from USB.

Considering my current iron is a 50W Weller TCP, that can switch between soldering 0805 packages immediately followed by large tag terminal capacitors and ground planes without have to do anything, change any settings etc. You don't even have to change tip with the chisel.

Soldering irons also take a heavy battering when you use them as well. The above Weller is 20 years old and looks and works good as new. I really can't see that working for very long.

I just don't understand why the product exists really. If I was in the market you can pick up a whole Weller TCP station for less cash second hand. This is just a flashy toy.

I agree. At some point they should stop considering FF users as "well they aren't OUR users" in the cost benefit equation. They have to acknowledge that FF has a big chunk of the market and it should be part of the "Browsers we test on" list.

Considering the features work fine on FF, the actual costs for testing on FF should be minimal.
It isn't. Not from the perspective being given.

This isn't about "can a company cripple the government", its about "can a FOREIGN company cripple the government".

So the US is safe with MS at the helm and Russia is safe with Kaspersky at the helm; but not with each other's software.

And frankly after dismissing my own knee jerk reaction, I agree. Yes it's ridiculous we're at the point where we can't trust non-free software and most modern hardware - but that's where we are. Bring on the 2100's.

If-elif loops definitely get you part of the way there;

Lets say we're trying to find the tweets that actually come from people affect by a disaster, rather than just supplying commentary about them.

You could just say "if tweet is not within x distance of disaster, then tweet is likely to be commentary rather than from someone actually affected". However this could always miss a tweet like

"My elderly mother just called me, and she's in trouble but doesn't know who to contact"

So really this is a case of "Given tweet is not within x distance, likelihood of being from affected person is lower", but of course we don't know what the affect on likelihood is (I couldn't even ballpark it for you).

If you had some classified data though, you could start to get and idea of what all these Bayes Factors are. And just like that, you're doing a naive bayesian classifier. As I said, not fancy "Deep learning with CNNs", but ML nonetheless.

True. The only secular countries in "the West" I can think of are Turkey and France. And sadly Turkey has very nearly abandoned their secular foundations by embracing Erdoğanism.

However despite Germany's faults at least Germany is not Christian by law. The reason Islam doesn't enjoy the same privileges as mainstream Christianity is that Christians are better organised and less sectarian.

The Catholic Church in Germany needs no explanation but the Evangelical Church in Germany is a union of Lutherans, Calvinists and other protestants. The Islamic sects are far too disunited to form an alliance like this. A single Islamic faith group (Ahmadiyya) managed to organise as a public corporation (i.e. a recognised religious group) and they only exist in two out of Germany's 16 states and represent a minority group compared to other Islamic sects.

To give you a better idea, here's the list of recognised religious groups in the most populous state of Germany:

http://www.bmi.bund.de/PERS/DE/Themen/Informationen/Religion...

Most of them are Christian, even including Mennonites and Jehova's Wittnesses. There are also numerous Jewish communities. There's even a Hindu temple. Yet not a single Islamic group. This isn't the result of a Christian bias, it's entirely on the Islamic communities.

Oh, I wasn't aware. Two follow-ups then:

(1) Is it actually worth the water? Especially in somewhere with a water crisis, like (say) California?

(2) Can they actually wash these though? On a large scale, how could they possibly wash plastic wrappers that can cling to themselves so as to remove all the grease?

> Yet for a few thousand dollars a year, Meltwater will give you reporters’ emails and phone numbers

It's quite hard to describe their business model without using the words "verified emails"; which is closely related to spam marketing I guess. A few thousand dollars a year also sounds very expensive for those email addresses/phone numbers
That sounds like a great idea. Does anything like that exist already?
I don't care about terminology/title. That's irrelevant. My point is that the company raised 77 million of dollars based entirely on technology invented by this developer. Him asking to own a small part of that is totally reasonable.

I agree that he should have signed a proper contract with them and not rely on verbal agreements (but after reading little bit about him online he seems to be some sort of extreme libertarian, he doesn't believe in lawyers and contracts, just in voluntary exchanges).

But that doesn't mean it's not a bit evil for the company to just throw him away after using his name and technology to get people invest in them.

There's weird stuff going on with Tethers, which are supposedly pegged to the dollar and fully backed, being created apparently out of nothing when Tether has no US banking arrangements, and these being used to prop up margin trading on Bitfinex. The price then goes up on Bitfinex, then on other exchanges.

The upshot is: every time margin gets too deep on Bitfinex, another batch of Tethers is created out of thin air, and the price gets a pump. Bitcoin's recapitulated the history of finance, and now it's got to Quantitative Easing.
