In FL, would it be illegal if I installed solar panels and just charged a large battery, never connecting it to the grid?

Is it illegal to even just own a solar panel that is not connected to the grid?

I don't think they will pull out. That's what's driving the prices so high.

If everyone just lets money go from their check to the S&P 500. And most of that is flowing to only 10 companies. I think about it, if 3rd of the market is blindingly putting money in every month and a 3rd of the market isn't selling an equal amount it will send prices up.

The problem is when it's time for Baby Boomers to retire en mass and they start pulling money out. Huge bear head wind.

Otherwise, the math is pretty easy. The key questions are: how many requests per user per session, how many request per user per minute, and how many request per second can the hardware serve?

Supposing an even distribution of 180M visits per day and 1 requests per visit:

125,000 visitors per minute

125,000 http request per minute

2,083 requests per second

That should be doable on a large vps of some sort, even for wordpress.

Now the question is, how complex is the workflow? Certainly a visit will consist of more than one request. Also, visitor frequency will most likely peak during certain periods of the day/week.

(0) Tensors aren't “arrays of numbers” any more than points in physical space are “arrays of coordinates”. You can assign them coordinates in several ways, and this is of course useful for computations, but this isn't what tensors are.

It's a case of where consumer laws have been used against the overall public interest.

> 25 and 50 minutes are more natural than 20 minutes from decimal POV.

Not really. Quarter hours and half hours are natural units. This is true no matter how many minutes we divide an hour into. There's nothing special about "25" when you're building up from 1. 25 is only special when you're splitting up 100, and nothing uses 100-minute blocks so that doesn't happen.

> I'd say the fact that 15, 20 and 30 fit nicely into an hour plays a role in their popularity

I'm skeptical for 20. I think 20 being a nice round number plays a much bigger factor here. If hours were 65 minutes I think you'd see just as much use of "20 minutes".
Very interesting work.
Good luck with it.

>> Reality requires theory; you simply can't claim to make a comment on modern Socialism without reading about what theories modern Socialists have created as to how the economy should be run

Reality does require theory, but in the same way I don't really need to care about how an internal combustion engine works to drive a car, I don't need to care about your theories. The evidence for whether a theory is any good or not is how it works in reality. Do either of the two examples you gave still exists?

I think it ironic that you raise the subject of civil liberties, given that they are complete anathema to socialism and must be overcome for any sort of socialism to be implemented.
Typing systems for dynamic languages shouldn't be viewed as crutches for the inexperienced dev - experienced devs should seek them out when the ROI is there.

If any level of your tech stack offers you guarantees, use them so that you have less code to write. Less code is less opportunity for bugs and faster development.
That's why you have teams, I was on the senior level team. We shared the responsibility; thus, I shouldn't have to check-in. Other senior engineers went on vacation during my tenure there without looking at a single email or picking up the phone, so why should I have to be held to a different standard?
I beg to differ. Auto-currying (eg via Ramda) is awesome, powerful, and pragmatic.
So add another switch before this switch, inside the house maybe, so you can switch it on or off. I read (some) of the FPL rules about this and nowhere did it say you cannot do this, it simply says so that the electrical workers can shut it off to the grid from outside, if necessary.

While Coca-Cola deserves a great deal of blame for this (obviously), surely the bigger part of the blame should go to the local government for allowing them to do this? Isn't the people, and therefore the government, sovereign? Or are there some laws/constitutional issues that would prevent the government from restricting Coca-Cola in taking all the water?

By the way, this is why corporate-written and corrupt treaties such as TPP and TTIP can be so dangerous if they end-up preventing national governments from putting such restrictions against multi-national companies.

Another thought: expect more of this to happen when corporations start being run by AI - a lot more. A corporation is already an inhuman entity that's highly biased towards "increasing profits at all costs" without regard for much else. An AI-run corporation would be a supercharged version of that.

People who also "can't wait to be governed by their AI overlords" should take the same thing into consideration.
It's a good assumption for 3.7. In isolation this is a pragmatic decision and makes sense.

You are correct though. A .py file which uses non-ascii and doesn't declare the encoding should be considered an error though. Hopefully everybody's dev tools will pick this up (even on 3.7 where they wouldn't need to)

Marijuana is absolutely harmful for people with certain mental illnesses. Schizophrenics for example.

You hit the nail on the head. The biggest save for well structured teams would have to be revisiting tickets/speed of development. Having a compiler tell you: this field is missing, this field is wrong, a cannot be b saves a ton of time in terms of development validation (manual or automated).

DRM isn't about making things impossible to pirate, it's about making them harder to pirate.

IMO, some people will always pirate your movie/music/games/whatever. But if the crack lasts a few weeks, or if you have to unplug your DVD drive to get it to work, or if it's a low quality cam rip, or if all the good torrent sites have been shut down and now the last ones are infested with spyware, or if there's a risk of getting sued by the MPAA... all of these are factors that'll tilt the pirate vs buy decision.
Neither legalisation with regulation, or the current system of blanket criminalization is going to solve the problem of dangerous narcotics. These drugs bare here to stay. The failure of the war on drugs, which was supposed to solve the drugs problem, proves that.

So given that eliminating drugs completely has utterly and comprehensively failed, at huge financial and social cost, and given that legalization and regulation has proven to be effective time and time again, the question is which approach is best at managing the damage these drugs do and protecting individuals and society?

This premise of many bugs being "type errors" is overblown and certainly very recent, for i've never heard such a claim on the internet until only recently (1 or two years ago). And the world was using dynamic languages for decades on the internet (old ASP, old Actionscript, old JS, PHP4 anyone?)

If the 15% of your bugs are simple type errors, then I'd suspect the quality and experience of your development team.

The big white elephant in the room that javascript users don't want to acknowledge.

Mind you, static type checks are nice stuff, but to claim that 15% of bugs are type bugs, is another thing altogether.

I speak from experience, having managed development teams for years. Junior coders need (and deserve) to be trained first doing stuff without hurry to allow for mistake, not used immediately or thrown into critical (or rushed) projects.

Nearly everyone dying from legal opiates is because they're mixing them with heroin, which is often cut with a depressant like fentanyl. Heroin is illegal, and fentanyl is illegal for all intents and purposes to the average person. So maybe we should fix our wide spread and nearly half a century problem with heroin by making it illegal. Then no one will ever use it and it won't be available to anyone ever again.

You just can't get around the evidence that making drugs illegal doesn't make them unavailable and doesn't reduce the number of people who use them. It just makes it more dangerous to the addicts and funds cartels and gangs.
It follows from Curry-Howard isomorphism.

> If you embrace the type system and start modeling your domain types with the natural invariants in mind you start seeing the real benefit.

Except that few type systems have the capability to do this in a reasonable way that doesn't lead to horribly contorted code full of type-induced damage.

Just look at the difficulties that people have trying to express code at a higher level of abstraction like partial application, currying, generic composition, etc (as in fantasy land or ramda) in typescript.

If you're acclimatised to working in a specific type system, you'll probably never notice the areas where it stops you legitimately abstracting.

> entire categories of bugs will impossible to introduce.

This is true.

> Otherwise complicated architectures will become easy to express.

This, I think, is false. In fact many complicated architectures (depending on your type system) will become impossible to express, and to some extent this is a feature rather than a bug.
Good points, but I think we can work around them.

1) As others have said xinput is pervasive as this point. If the Xbox 360 controller becomes hard to source then I'm sure a replacement xinput derived device will still be around. If not, it's a well documented standard and new devices can be made.

2) This leans on my first response. Xinput is the winner here, not the Xbox controller. If after testing they can't harden it then we have a lot of other options, up to and including a bespoke controller.

I guess what I'm saying is that video game controls are so much fun for a reason. They 'just work'. And while there is a little bit of dystopian sheen to seeing video games become the source for defacto tooling for war machines I'm always for a simplification of man/machine interactions.
Pretty sure the first code completion programs were in dynamic languages. With many environments, you literally asked the object what methods it had. Same for documentation.
> I once considered writing an EC2 autoscaler that knew the exact timestamps of the instances so that it could avoid shutting down VMs that still had 59 minutes of "free" time left because they'd been up across another hour-long threshold.

Years ago my boss at the time did this (this was when scaling had to mostly be done in code/by hand). I just recently updated all the code as I moved it to using spots. The low price of spots made it less important to shut ones down closer to the hour mark though.

>If you create a big series of regulations and taxes around drugs - then there will still be a huge secondary, black market.

The experience in places where this has been tried is that the supply in the black market reduces and prices significantly increase. So yes, the evidence is that legalization does a better job of restricting black market access than blanket criminalization.

Note that having a legal market doesn't suddenly mean the police stop busting drugs gangs. What it means is that drugs gangs not only have to face exactly the same law enforcement crackdown they already have, but also have to compete with legal, medically regulated access to drugs. It's a double-whammy for them.

Bryan Lunduke on the direction the W3C is heading
Facebook (and Google, political pundits, and many others) got themselves into this pickle by trumpeting unsubstantiated claims based on their own biased political narratives to begin with. One of the major claims recently being that Russia interfered with the election by hacking the DNC and releasing emails and other data. This has now been shown to be absolutely false by two reports coming out of the NSA of all places (whom normally don't say anything to anyone outside of their Congressional oversight committee and the DOD). Long story short - it was an inside job, and the metadata was changed on the files to try and shift blame to Russian sources before those files were released.

Now it's total crickets from these very same groups that were pushing this narrative and they've all but swept Russia under the rug, and now they're wondering why people are giving them the middle finger about their "facts".
