> There was another system, who's name I forgot, which was all around good and met all the requirements ... except that apparently all the cameras have a bug where they often delay recording after motion detection for 5 seconds or so. Wow...

You might be thinking of Netgear's Arlo -- I've got several of them and have for a few years. I've seen the camera lag 0.5s on motion but never 5 seconds!
On the other hand, if there was a clear way to distinguish the guevedoces from the "permanent" girls before puberty, then they would presumably raise them as boys, not girls, because they would know that the penis is going to eventually come in. But their descriptions of discomfort with girlhood don't sound that much different than the ones I had, and so the parents can't tell them apart from any other persistent tomboy. Traditional girlhood is not a positive experience, it is designed to shape children for a subservient adult role. It is not strange or unusual to hate it and it's not evidence that someone is secretly a boy.
When Google bought Motorola, Android was under serious assault from patent trolling, and the move looked to most people to be mainly defensive to quickly build up a defensive warchest. It's my impression that Google never intended to become a serious competitor in the handset market, perhaps for fear of stepping on the toes of its partners like Samsung, so it was content to let Motorola operate as an independent entity as if Google were a holding company.

This is just my personal opinion with no more knowledge than anyone else, but this HTC acquisition looks different than Motorola. It has the hallmarks of an acqui-hire, and which implies Google may no longer be content to just sit by as a cornucopia of OEMs ship commodity HW using off the shelf stuff and small tweaks, as that's never going to pull the market forward like Apple can do with vertical integration.

My tone was a partial response to the phrase below, and a partial catchy soundbite to agree with your point that the government shouldn't step in.

> Shouldn't people be motivated by their own self-interest?

It should also be in the company's self-interest to train its workers, it's just because of a bad worker-employer leverage balance that they don't take advantage of that.

In the years since, I've sometimes thought about my counterparts in the Iraqi army during the Gulf War: the ones on the "Highway of Death", and the ones simply bombed to smithereens in the middle of nowhere.

Their leadership probably deserved that fate, though few of the rank-and-file.

I wonder what Iraq would be like today if we had done in 1991 what we postponed to 2003. I wonder how many of those Iraqis killed since the Gulf War would have been able to make their country a far better place than it is today.

Ultimately, the whole thing has been a massive failure; it would have been better for us, and likely much of the Middle East, to have let Iraq take Kuwait (and Saudi Arabia, for that matter). It wasn't our fight. It was never our fight.
Those $3.3 million per engineer correspond to roughly 100 years of current salaries, according to the numbers I posted elsewhere in this thread. :/

Having a GOCMD may be useful, but not like this.

In bigger systems, you may alter the PATH in the CI env or part of the Makefile itself, or PATH differs from machine to machine, OS to OS, etc, or you want to say that GOCMD is either "gofork" or "go".

Regardless of the situation you'd want to use an absolute path to the executable so that if you run make in verbose mode you'd see "/usr/bin/go" or "/home/user/local/bin/go" or "/this/is/not/the/real/go" printed. Being super strict about this pattern will keep you sane.

It's pretty sad to see how weak some of the recent democracies are. At least in the UK the government allowed people to express themselves, even though many thought an independent Scotland would be a huge mistake.

Now compare that with the Spanish government. Banning a referendum, raiding political parties and Catalonian government offices, arresting government officials, flirting with far-right politics, de-facto suspending the Catalonian autonomy and basically abandoning any democratic dialog.

Now, there is no going back. I wish the best of luck to my friends in Catalonia. Shall they be allowed to express their desire to leave or stay in Spain in peace. I wish no one to get hurt during these turbulent weeks.
Does it? I thought it just tells you if you're compromised.
I have mixed feelings here, but I'm certainly not entirely negative.

Activist investors have done a great deal of real damage, mostly by demanding that sound companies sacrifice long-term planning in favor of dividends and short term wealth gain.

It's 'creative destruction', sure, but it's not about companies failing when they can't compete. It's about investors leveraging a regulatory environment to turn profit on something other than actual value creation. A system that directly rewards incumbents seems questionable, but a system where shareholders gain influence within a single company over time seems like a reasonable answer to short-termism.
>It alleviates the anxiety of leaving your phone at home by... further conditioning your dependence on interconnectivity? Blind logic is the dark-side of the reality distortion field.

You seem to be applying cold logic to human behavior. This is a bad strategy for understanding products.

You're trolling, right? You have to be.

>If your phone generates anxiety, fix the issue.

Language games are fun! The (lack of) phone isn't generating anxiety, the human brain is. The (lack of) phone is merely a trigger. A trigger whose manifestations this product has been designed to dramatically reduce.

That’s also assuming Wikipedia is worth having an offline index for. Wikipedia, for Bonn controversial, general knowledge has its value, but something gets lost with 1000 chefs in the kitchen. The beauty of the internet is that it isn’t Encarta.
That's certainly one perspective.

As a mil. Brat to an enlisted infantryman and former AF cgo, i got to see the policy design and implementation at scale. Many were very much dedicated to the mission, but many were also dedicated to greasing up thag contractor for a nice cushy connection when the punch out, were checking their boxes for a transition to their ivy league of choice, or pushing for highly competitive programs like weapons school or a PhD at MIT/Harvard.

But at the end if the day, everyone is dedicated to doing what their function in the greater organization is. The role of the armed forces is to faithfully execute the mission handed to them by their civilian commanders. We are an arm of foreign police (DIME, Diplomacy, information, military, economic pressure).
The POTUS has every bit of power to pull us out, and that is where the cynicism should be directed.

The last secaf fought SO HARD to kill the mil-congressional-industrial complex, but there is too much inertia. The american military machine is a complexed component of American Society.

It's not perfect either, I agree. It's hard and subjective to define what the real true value of something. But one common way is to define it as "what someone will pay for it" -- that's the math I did above.

Anyways, I'm not trying to argue that the value of that hypothetical company is $14,400. I'm trying to argue that it's not anywhere near $50k. (Disproving the GP's example that BCH created $8B of value overnight.)
Which is fine, comparing it to competitors and past iterations. But as a watch, that is simply not an acceptable battery life.

Something like, 'battery life continues to be poor but manageable' would be far more honest.
I've definitely had some other minor pain points with GOPATH, and I hate when veteran users of another language trivialize my pain points with their language, but I think all of the use cases you've described are all well within GOPATH's wheelhouse:

export GOPATH=$HOME/go:/media/USB-DISK:/foo/bar/baz

Now Go can find any projects in any of those workspaces. The only caveat is the projects have to be in a workspace, which is a directory with a src folder containing your project. I agree that this is a minor nuisance and I would design it differently, but Go's tooling is still far easier than pretty much anyone else's (it's actually what brought me to Go).

Every organization I have been in (large and small) has made heavy use of open source software. A heavily Microsoft shop might manage to avoid it, but usually you will find some open source somewhere.

Often there is not an explicit policy. Management is usually cool with it because they don't have to be bothered by developers to deal with salespeople, write a check, etc.
I vaguely built something similar for Sydney, but in showing how good/bad public transport is than driving (hint: it's way worse to catch PT): http://www.publictransport-or-drive.com/

It pretty much makes a isochrone maps all over the city, and gets google public transport and driving times and creates a ratio.

So the license allows you to use any patents (held by the project author) included in the project, but it doesn't cover anything about patents used by contributors when submitting changes. OK...

May? That seems like something that should really be changed to "Any modification to the software submitted [...] will be incorporated into [...]" or something similar that _doesn't_ let people decide about this on the fly.

This license as a whole is rather vague, leaving a lot up to interpretation. This isn't something you want from the only thing that stands between you and a potential legal nightmare. Just use good existing licenses such as the MPL 2.0, Apache, GPL (or some flavour of it), or even the MIT license (though I would strongly recommend not using it without a CLA).

Same what Nokia did with smartphones. They sold remaining phone manufacturing and marketing to Microsoft but kept all patents, Nokia Research and even the Nokia brand.

Smartphone market is in the state of business where manufacturing, R&D and brand marketing can be separated and mixed freely. Especially in the Android ecosystem.
It is not as simple as that. The US industry has driven down the prices of everything, salaries along with that, so only affluent places have disposable income to contract the services of good bakers. Everywhere else a real baker will starve trying to compete with the local Dunkin Donuts. This creates a vicious cycle of lower salaries, less opportunities for everyone. In short, low prices are killing competition everywhere except where the affluent already live.

If I had to guess, the property investment train just can't keep going on forever - eventually I'd imagine it has to top out as nobody can afford to live anywhere anymore. The younger generation is locked out of housing markets completely, and only through family inheritance is owning any property affordable unless you are lucky enough to be in a boom area at the right time.

I could just see any major region having a housing crisis cause the dominos to fall - if the Taipei market takes a 30% dive, all those investors need to park their money somewhere else, which will over-inflate other markets even quicker. That or some pillar holding up one of the markets failing (Ad economy stops returning fat multiples as saturation sinks in). It may be my perspective as a younger person but the economy has always been extremely fragile as long as I've been alive, and it seems like while investments have gone up over time the bar to getting in is higher than its been in a century.

You raise a reasonable point: we look around, and it doesn't quite look like the world is on fire, people aren't walking around like zombies, so what is the big deal?

The destruction of man's mind will not be witnessed as an explosion. It will be a quiet kind of wasting away. The factory that isn't built. The breakthrough that isn't discovered. The rise of a culture that isn't based on ideas, but on pure emotion.

As you say, most Americans spend 10+ years in a classroom, sitting at a desk for 6+ hours per day. This has gone on for decades. And the result? Trump. Post-truth. A culture in which most people can't rationally debate ideas without resorting to emotional attacks. A nation that formerly accepted immigrants by the millions, confident that our greatest days awaited us if we would only reach and work for them... to a nation focused on building walls, terrified of the unknown, and fearful of ideas.

Cultural change is slow, until it isn't: 30 years ago, Venezuela was the wealthiest country in South America, now there are no more dogs left to eat. We are more fortunate because past generations created a culture of achievement, science, liberty. But the overall trajectory is unmistakable and we are running on borrowed time.

A radical shift in education is the fundamental challenge of our time. Fix education - teach children to think, use reason, and to know that they can shape the world through dedicated focus and effort - and everything else is easy.
Do you have their NVR, or did you install it on your own hardware? I have used both and had different experiences. With the NVR, I have had no problems, but with my own hardware I had the problem you describe if it was up too long. I was able to work around it by scheduling a daily cron to restart their process.

I had this idea 15 years ago, although I was thinking you could manipulate the visual distance on the map to make it look physically closer, kind of like a topological map. It would take the current traffic, etc to take into account how close things were in time vs distance.

But I was never smart enough to implement it. This goes a bit along the way but hopefully someone comes along and implements that, I think I would find it very useful.
That would be a problem if it wasn't trivially easy to block them. Otherwise, people being horrible really isn't your problem unless you train yourself to be very conscious of their opinions and to care deeply about them. That's the only way their opinion can get to you. Of course, that training doesn't have to be conscious and a great many people have inadvertently trained themselves to be sensitive to the opinions of horrible people... but no one in the universe can do anything about that except the people themselves. (And no this doesn't remove blame from those hurling insults. I'm talking about how to deal with it yourself. If you're worried about how it reflects on them, and wanting to assign blame, you're still in the wrong mindset. You can control only yourself. Even if you were able to control others, it would make you a horrendously bad person to do so.)
