I strongly considered moving to the Netherlands because it's so much better for kids than America, but I decided it was better to be near family, and I worried that my stress in moving would be bad for the kids. I am not sure I made the right decision.
Definately mixed milage here I agree..

That said on the low end I bought an Acer CloudBook (Win-10 competitor to chromebook) about 2y back and literally everything works, including suspend, wifi, and all the rest.

> (Swift operators are just normal functions with special call syntax.)

Coming from Haskell and Rust it's nice to see this trend catching on.

Is Swift planning to introduce a distinction between borrows and mutable borrows to the user? From what you describe it seems like right now syntax-wise a borrow and a mutable borrow look the same, and the runtime makes some decision about it.

edit: Or I guess it could be the opposite. Since Swift passes by value always unless the runtime can optimize (right?), you could just not write & and inout and cross your fingers it gets optimized to a borrow rather than a copy?

Stuff like this makes me prefer the explicitness of Rust. It seems like here on the surface it's abstracted from you, but really you need to know the rules anyway or you could get into trouble.
The Lil License kind of makes sense if you think about it as an attempt to add explicit patent protection to an ISC or MIT-style license. But only "kind of".

What the patent system gives a patentholder is the ability to selectively prohibit others from making, selling, or using some product or method protected by the patent. The Lil License is weird in that it only explicitly mentions the latter.

Its text regarding copies of the license is also very weird.

Please do not use this license.

D-link makes reasonable wifi cameras that can be used for home security and they double as baby monitors. You can buy 5-7 of them for the price of a single Nest camera. They have motion/sound detection (lot can be improved though). Mobile app is slow but works ok. E-mail alerts with stills/videos are useful when you are away from home.

Yep, completely agree. Especially love the last point. A labor shortage sounds like the perfect time to implement a wider social safety net. But this article (not to mention the interviewees) displays a clear bias against labor.

Doesn't this just mean bunch of lost jobs when redis fails.

I'm saying that for a lot of people the "technical" definition of sex is really blurry.

You could look at chromosomal sex, but even that can get weird. You have Kleinfelter's people (XXY), people who are XX but male because they have the SRY gene on one of their X chromosomes (XX Male/ de la Chappelle syndrome). You have people who have a Y chromosome but develop female because of androgen insensitivity.

You can even have people that are chimeras that literally have both XX and XY genes in their body; there is a report of somebody who was 94% XY giving birth.

There's a whole spectrum of intersex possibilities and ambiguous genitalia. Historically, doctors would pick which sex was surgically easiest to assign to the baby if their genitalia were ambiguous, and that was kind of disastrous because it's not just a societal construct and not just something you can flip at birth.

Biologically speaking the presence or absence of SRY is kinda the closest thing to technical that you can get; that is the gene that causes the ovotestis to develop into testicles and start secreting testosterone and anti-mullerian hormone. Pretty much all the other changes in sexual development are keyed by levels of sex steroids.

But as mentioned even if you have that, all kinds of things can cause that go weird; from your body not making testosterone, to it not being responded to correctly, to the womb environment introducing other chemicals that alter brain development.

And especially with brain development, we don't really know how it works. There's studies that look at - if you take a baby mouse, and remove its ovaries/testes, and give it hormone X, then it acts this way towards other mice that looks more male or female.

However, humans aren't mice and a lot of our sexual behaviors are pretty unique to the species (like face to face sex), and even then, our brains are way more complicated and complex. The difference between gender and orientation is almost impossible to see in an animal model (usually they look at things like, does the mouse try to mount female mice when they are receptive, does it exhibit lordosis posture, etc).

> However this would be a massive overhaul to our entire society.

Depends on the age involved but it really doesn't change anything the first few years. We'd have to get over the obsession with blue for boys and pink for girls and painting the rooms and gender reveal parties... but not much else. I mean historically (young) boys and girls wore basically the same clothes (just so more didn't need to be made/bought) and were treated the same because it really doesn't make any difference.

Bathrooms are kinda the first thing but really what other difference is there? Especially before puberty?

And let's not forget that even then, you're always going to have people who are ambiguous or fall between the cracks. Gender nonconforming, genderfluid, genderqueer - people who just don't feel one label fits them all the time. Even within the two-gender framework you have effeminate gay men, tomboys, and all sorts of other perfectly valid identities.

Yes Digital Ocean / Linode bandwidth is 40x cheaper than AWS. Amazon also charges extra for a support plan so you can open a ticket, and inform them of their bugs. And we have found bugs in AWS infrastructure that still remains unfixed, because we have a disproportionate amount of IE users. They essentially forced us to stand up a linode proxy infront of s3 & create our own CDN, since theirs did not work for our users. In the process we saved 4,000% on our bandwidth.

That's the story they (the SEC and friends) provide, but to me it seems more like they wanted to make it hard for people with limited means participate in the legalized get-rich-quick schemes.

I don't know the trigger. With this president it's hard to call. Low and falling energy prices are going to make an inflation triggered recession tough, but rising wages in the developing world are could push it. If I had to guess though it would probably be the property bubble in China / commonwealth countries popping.

When it will be: 15% chance next 6 months, 50% chance next 12 (inclusive), 75% chance next 18, 93% chance next 24.

Assets: I've sold everything (TSLA, AAPL, BTC, GOOG, SPY, TD, bonds, international index funds) except for Facebook stock, some shares that are outside of my control due to insider knowledge, and some Sia, Dash, and tiny minority of BTC thats sitting in an exchange that I keep around if I need to make a fast cryptocurrency purchase.

I've bought some SPY put options over the next 18 months. I'm essentially risking 5% of the portfolio to double its value if I'm right about the timing and magnitude.
You didn't perform a cost-benefit analysis though. You simply asserted that it is "obviously so" that spending money on infrastructure isn't worthwhile.

Here's some counter-evidence: It doesn't cost anything more to include proper curb cuts and such when the sidewalk is first built. The stadium infrastructure in the linked article post-dates ADA legislation requiring such, and yet was simply not built properly.
I work for a large alarm monitoring service. For years, I've been sending management notifications of new entries and updates in the 'personal monitoring' space.

Its actually humorous to see these old school guys who have enjoyed having a low churn subscription service cash cow for decades, be slowly disrupted.

Why would anybody want to spend less than a 1/3rd the hardware cost, no installation cost, can be moved when you moved, and no monthly monitoring fee. They just don't get it.

I sent them links to Nests product announcements today. It'll be interesting to see their response.
For the Go tools to work consistently, your code has to be inside GOPATH, which means you cannot ignore it entirely.

You can often use relative package names (e.g. "go test ./..."), but it breaks whenever you use absolute ones, and the Go toolchain is based on this assumption being true. My experience is that editor plugins (e.g.
the Go plugin for VSCode) don't like this.

I use hardlinks (the "hln" third-party utility on macOS) to get around this, which means I can have all my projects under a sane directory structure under ~/Projects.

As your article states, that woman has a condition called Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, or AIS, producing a person with a vagina but with XY chromosomes.

That isn't normal & healthy development, any more than blindness is normal & healthy. Rather, AIS is a medical condition, a syndrome that causes suffering.
This explains (kind-of) the Simon and Garfunkel lyric, "I've been Lou Adlered, Barry Sadlered." Somehow it had never occurred to me that Barry Sadler was a famous person. I suppose I'd assumed since I didn't get the reference, they'd just tossed in a name that fit the meter.

I think it is making it easier for non-professional programmers to express themselves to computers, e.g. better programming languages, compilers, more intelligent interfaces, integrating machine learned models with mainstream code in a reproducible way.

This book is an attack on the problem from one angle

That does not answer the question of what women will do with their lives. Women who have been socialized their entire life to pick up after others and cook for them and take care of them don't readily have a path forward for how to spend their time constructively. The logical outcome is that many women wind up with paid jobs that mimic the wife and mom role. But paid jobs that involve, for example, cleaning up after others tend to be shit jobs that no one actually aspires to. People do not typically dream of being the maid.

I was a homemaker and full time mom. I also was an excellent student. I have found it quite challenging to develop a serious career. I feel strongly that gender expectations are a big factor in that problem.

So, it is a thing I think about a lot.

I agree that there is nothing inherently wrong with having a useful mental model for "this is how to act." But I think we face substantial challenges in teasing out how to separate masculine and feminine expression from the raft load of problems that cause the trend known as the feminization of poverty.

I don't think it really matters. All of the meaningful technology behind Vive (Lighthouse sensors, SteamVR, and the associated IMU firmware) is all developed and licensed to pretty much anyone who wants it by Valve. In the end Vive will be the VR equivalent of the first Android phone. A breakthrough piece of tech which led the way for an entire ecosystem of products to develop, but forgotten and obsolesced in it's own right.

Well, poll people about universal healthcare. It's, what, 70% support? Poll people about legalization of marijuana. Poll people about private prisons. Poll people about police buying military weapons, tanks on streets. Poll people about asset forfeiture. Poll people about a living wage. Poll people about gerrymandering. Poll people about money in politics. Poll people about the revolving door. Poll people about student loans. Poll people about net neutrality. Poll people about the TPP. Support for the Iraq war was created by lies and propagandists, explicitly and intentionally -- public opinion was manufactured through deceit, not genuine. And there were still huge antiwar protests and massive antiwar sentiment.

You will get massive support on a wide variety of issues completely invisible to modern political discourse if you ask people. But the people asking the questions have enormous power. If you rate congresspeople by their collective votes in congress, if you let mainstream pundits who are paid explicitly to maintain the status quo ask questions, the answers will not be inspiring and most will look similar.

I don't blame people for not demanding action, for not demanding things at all, since they've been taught it doesn't work and it's a waste of time. They are resigned to being ignored, they do not consent. Most American's don't vote. The keywords here are apathy and a disconnect with the system, not agreement.

I fully agree. I had that "click" moment with react that really made larger, more complex interfaces seem manageable. Granted that it's still not easy, but most of the time complex apps are tricky to develop and maintain, making sure that they work across a whole load of different devices and their varying screen sizes.

With the huge number of frameworks/libraries/guidelines out their for JS developers, if you can't find a combination that works for you... then front-end work just isn't for you. A lot of people moan about the massive choice of frameworks and libraries. But even the most popular, most maintained and most loved ones will be replaced in a number of years. So find your combination, learn it inside out and ride it's wave until it's time to learn something new that changes paradigms and mindsets.
It's valid for your usecase, but I still agree with your parent comment that your bag's contents are unusual.
The house I grew up, in a rural area, there's a small restaurant we would frequently get food from less than 2,000 ft away. We would have to drive to pick up because it was unsafe to walk there. Busy two lane road with drainage ditches on both sides of the road.

Also, not having a car meant you didn't go anywhere. When my grandmothers stopped driving, they stayed cooped in the house all day (except for one, now deceased, that tended to her small garden).
Last night at bedtime my 7yo son (2nd grade) said that he doesn't have enough time to play. Yesterday was a short day that he has once a week and he wished every day was a short day.

To be honest, it was really sad to hear him say that. He's a kid and doesn't understand the schedule being imposed upon him.

Without getting into a discussion about the right number of hours a 7yo should spend in class I wanted to ask another question.

What ideas have parents come up with to make it "feel" like there's more unstructured play time for kids during the school year?
No, you are correct. AWS charges inexplicably ridiculous prices for bandwidth. By my calculations, the last time their bandwidth rates were market-competitive was in 2007.

Market rate is actually below $0.01/GB even, but I'm very comfortable paying that rate for a multi-homed connection to a managed service.
