Except abandoned cities won't magically go back to some idyllic paradise. They're full of value (shelter, metals, art, etc) that someone is going to want to extract. And they're also full of lots of potentially dangerous stuff too.

Chalmers believes in the metaphysical possibility of p-zombies and argues that this necessarily implies that physicalism is false. If a transporter recreates the physical structure of a person, but physicalism is false, then this recreation must be without any of the subjective qualia of the original. Under the premise that the transporter works, however, the re-creation acts as if it has these qualia, so therefore it must be, by definition, a p-zombie.

Bitcoin was a security the second it came into existence. The law doesn't need to retroactively be applied, it always applied. New things aren't somehow immune from existing law because they haven't been explicitly named by the law. The law doesn't need to say "crypto's are securities" for crytpo's to be securities. Don't confuse regulators clarifying how they're going to enforce the law with changes in the law. Those clarifications come out to make it clear to "magical thinkers" that existing laws do apply and will be enforced as X.
Not an expert by any means but to me the biggest change is no more Python 2.

> Django 2.0 supports Python 3.4, 3.5, and 3.6. We highly recommend and only officially support the latest release of each series.

People should not write new code in Python 2 at all. If you're learning Python today, I'd say pretend Python 2 doesn't exist. Use python3-venv and renounce the baggage of the past.

I'm not conflating identity and equality; I'm arguing that you mean two different things by "identity" but are using one word to refer to both, resulting in confusion all round.
Indeed, this is the essence of the Buddhist denial of "self." The idea of a persistent self is a convenient abstraction for communicating things like "I'll go to the store this afternoon," but it should not be mistaken for the reality that the persistent self doesn't exist. "You" die every moment.
Of course there is EU law on copyright, and it's currently undergoing highly contentious reform. The Commission is pushing for an extra "copyright" for news sites, designed to get Google and Facebook to pay EU publishers for reproducing tiny snippets of their articles when they link to them, as well as an obligation for internet platforms to scan all uploads for infringement.

Most people, myself included, lump Highland Park into Detroit despite technically being a separate city. Hamtrack is similar. You really don't feel like you're out of Detroit until you hit the Southfield, Ferndale, and Royal Oak areas.

I haven't used Django in a few years, but the relase notes look like only minor new features.

This isn't a huge change the world release which you might expect of a 2.0.

The biggest one seems to be dropping Python 2.x support.
This is probably the reason for the 2.0.
Eh, Instagram is owned by Facebook, so I gave that a pass.
Yeah, so I can understand that technically speaking, for income & property tax purposes Highland Park is it's own thing. But the big picture economics of the area are that proximity of the neighborhood means, for example, many people living in that neighborhood also work and purchase goods in Detroit but outside of the neighborhood. And Detroit as a whole has this problem, it's been written about all over the place. All of Detroit has been grappling with how to provide continuing services to the multiple neighborhoods that have lost a lot of people. So I'm just curious if there's something more I need to know than just the Highland Park boundary that warrants separating it? Or maybe even if writing about it this way is a good thing for the Highland Park residents for some reason I don't understand?

Mostly minor changes, biggest developer facing changes involve dropping Python 2.x support and URL routing syntax (much more simplified, previously required a working knowledge of regex).

I'm a cyclist and my behavior changes greatly depending on where I am and the time of day.

Riding through busy parts of town during the weekday? Hell yeah I stop at red lights just like everyone else.

7 AM on Sunday morning in a quiet suburban neighborhood? I'll probably look in either direction when approaching an intersection and cross without stopping if there are no cars or pedestrians around, even if my light is red. I'll still slow down a bit though, instinctively.

Basically my rule of thumb is this: obey all traffic signs as if you're a car if sharing the road with motorists, cyclists or pedestrians. Otherwise though, you can ignore the signs.
There's new `path()` as alternative to `url()` that allows one to use easier to remember syntax for url params like `<int:id>` instead of past `(?P<year>[0-9]{4})`. But if you need it, there's still `url()` for you to use power of regex in your urls.

And your shop still runs on Py2k, you'll need to move to Py3k to use Django 2.0. This also means that websockets support will not land on Django version that works for Py2k.
I'd say the major things at the top of the release notes:

- Dropped support for Python 2

- New simpler syntax for specifying URL routes (as an alternative to the traditional regex-based one, which is still supported)

- The admin interface got a new responsive design that works better on mobile

- The ORM now has first-class support for OVER clauses
Besides dropping 2.0, the new urlconf syntax is a small but impactful improvement to something that you end up using very often.

”To copy the substrate perfectly implies copying perfectly the pattern encoded on it, and hence (since I'm a reductionist) copying perfectly the self”

But if yo copy a living being, you end up with two living beings, each (presumably) with their own self. Some people would argue getting rid of the original is murder (if you assume the original and the copy share a self, it would be mutilation)

I think the way out of this is to not call it copying but moving (you move a body from atoms a pattern buffer and from there back to atoms)
I think it's all relative. Identity and equality are the same if you disregard a thing's environment. Are two USB keys with the same data on them "the same"? It depends on what you care about.
Thinking 'blockchain', which is just a linked-list with hashes, is going to solve anything is silly. It's even sillier than thinking internal intranets or TCP/IP would create huge value, when really the Internet, something much more than internal intranets and TCP/IP, was the innovation.

Bitcoin is an open, borderless distributed network with an economic and social system built on top of a data structure called a blockchain. The real innovation has very little to do with the 'blockchain' hype corporations are pushing.

Our understanding of the interplay between the different groups of early humans and their relationship to us has been done a disservice by the artificial lines we've drawn in the sand. The Neanderthal and the Denisovan interbred. Both are the ancestors of modern humans, and on the same level of our family tree (i.e. the same number of generations ago). To proclaim that one group is homo sapiens and the other is not amounts to a weird sort of racism against our own ancestors, leading to the popular view of the Neanderthal as inferior.
Two answers for you:

1) don't-- instead learn about making single page apps on the front end using React and Redux, or perhaps Angular 2. Then write a REST backend in either Node, Go, Python, or C#. Or go serverless and write the backend in Firebase.

2) if you really do want to do Django, start by doing the default tutorial that focuses on building something in the admin interface. Coming from a rails background you are on somewhat similar ground.

Eventually you will need the MBAs to "straighten you out." I'm sure Harvard, Stanford, Columbia etc would be forced to close their schools if they provided no value to their students, as no one would hire them.

In SV they are derided and part of it, IMO, it's because all the investors want a brilliant guy with no sense of organizing. Investors will provide that, for an extra xx% :)
The tutorial on the Django.org site is quite excellent. You'll also want to learn a few important extensions, like django-extra-views and djcelery.
In Firefox, at least, there is an about:config option to turn off the ability of webpages to disable paste. Flip that setting and managers work again on those pages.
The point is that the analogy actually shows the opposite of what you want it to show! Family members are very, very weak copies of each other, and they still sacrifice themselves to save other family members. Explicitly, we have weak evidence against "There's no rational reason at all to think a copy would be more willing to die", namely that the better the copy of you, the more likely you are to sacrifice yourself for them. (Would an average human be more willing to die for their third cousin twice removed, their aunt, or their father?) The evidence is weak, naturally, because nature doesn't contain anything even remotely like two exact copies of a person; all we can do is attempt to extrapolate from the obvious trend that "the closer the relation, the more willing I am to die for them", and the obvious extrapolation is "the closest possible relation - the exact copy - is the most likely candidate for me to sacrifice myself to save".

By the way, the reason I downvoted your comment was because of the "you're projecting", which comes across as snarky and is not remotely implied by the parent comment.
And nowhere in the article if you bothered to read it closely does the author claim smokers are persecuted. The only place that word is used is in the following statement:

"... they are bound by a shared sense of shame and persecution"

Notice the phrase "A sense of"?

A "sense of something" in the English language means a "feeling of" or a "semblance of" something not the thing itself. This is quite distinct from claiming that something is a fact or a reality.

Other examples are a "sense of peace" which doesn't mean actual peace exists or of "a sense of stability" which doesn't actual stability exists, only a sensation of them.

The article is interesting because it makes observations about a support group for a habit this is very personal and popularly maligned and that has resonated with people. And that is very obviously the point in that article.

You for some inexplicable reason have decided that the most salient part of the post is that it somehow trivializes crimes against humanity.
> Bitcoin is a commodity of value, but WoW gold is not? Subjectively applying the law.

They're both commodities. People get away with not reporting WoW gold because the mean holder probably holds less than the mean holder of Bitcoin. As you observe, law enforcement resources are limited. That said, counting on flying under the radar is a horrible tax policy.

(It does not help that there is a (a) history of successful prosecutions surrounding Bitcoin, (b) a vocal group of Bitcoin enthusiasts arguing they aren't subject to tax and (c) a veritable black market around Bitcoin.)

> Equifax executives are chilling in their house right now. Big Vern is wanted by the feds for loss of fictional assets

Due process, my friend. The Equifax executives are being investigated; they have not yet been found guilty or even charged. One might argue they should be. But that's a discussion about what the law should be, not what it is. (That said, the insider trading charges look promising.)

As others have repeatedly mentioned, any delineation between "fictional" and "non-fictional" assets is itself a fiction. Arguing that something shouldn't be prosecuted because it isn't as illegal as murder is ridiculous. Better strategy: understand it's illegal, follow the law and organize to lobby to amend it.

Ok sounds good, but why differentiate between mind and substrate? Doesn't the pattern / substrate model reduce the mind to just information, and the brain (or body) to just machinery? For me the substrate and the pattern are the same thing, like a vinyl audio recording.

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/New-Hepatitis-C-dru...

The blockbuster hepatitis C drug will cost about $900 (around Rs 54,000) in India for a 12-week course of treatment. That would be a fraction of the $84,000 (over Rs 50 lakh) price tag for the same treatment in US.

I'm sure that they wouldn't be that profitable if USA paid $900 for that drug, especially the first few years.

Having tarrifs at zero is a problem.

You assume that Denmark would enforce the same or lower tarrifs than a poorer nation on some basic goods.

Smaller nations also can have negative import tarrifs on some goods in order to allow thier importers to compete with bigger consumers.
Which you cannot do in the EU.

The EU as a whole also has trade agreements with many of the regional non EU members.

These argeemnts also enforce protective tariffs to reduce the competitiveness of non EU imports.
The EU also requires its trade partners to meet EU regulations which increase the prices of exports to begin with.
But do you really need a dedicated key for that? Might as well just get rid of insert.
Django is an excellent choice for writing a REST backend though.

It's unfortunate that we must be this paranoid.
Correct. Starting with this release, Django is moving towards a model where every third release is semver-major. Every eight-month minor release will have new incremental features and deprecations. Each X.0 release will drop support for everything that was deprecated two or three releases ago, and each X.2 release will be an LTS release that gets bugfixes for the next 3 years.
Traffic lights are often installed in intersections where there are too many cars for an all way stop. When there are a lot of cars approaching an intersection, a traffic light can increase throughput.

It is a separate city, that is surrounded by Detroit except for one small portion touching Hamtramck which is also surrounded by Detroit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highland_Park,_Michigan

It's not terribly uncommon for a city like Detroit to annex surrounding towns and cities, but some of them hold out, which looks like is what happened here.
Imagine if they took advantage of & adopted software platforms like popcorntime.
This is often an externally visible code smell that implies plaintext storage of passwords in a char(10) (or whatever the max length is) db column.
There's just no fixed process for dealing with the situation. Detroit doesn't necessarily want to assume responsibility, the residents don't necessarily want to become part of Detroit, etc. etc.

I think it is kind of a modern problem to think of government structure as a static thing. Like another example from Michigan, now that we have paved roads everywhere we should all but dissolve townships. Organizing most of what they do would work fine at the county level. There's some real neighbor stuff that they do, but they don't need to have zoning boards or road projects.

Is sleep a death sentence?

To boil it down, "I" am made of two things: qualia and memories.

During unconscious sleep, those mysterious qualia disappear, except for brief chaotic flashes which we call dreams. Meanwhile a physical process takes place in the brain: those memories are reorganized, reformatted, and reconstituted.

In this view, there is a very literal sense to the idiom "I woke up feeling like a brand new person." Yet, few people go to sleep at night worrying that "they" will no longer exist in the morning, even though that is quite arguably the case.

I would worry about biological sleep long before I worried about teleporters. While any OSHA-compliant teleporter can (we would assume) preserve the continuity and integrity of one's memories, sleep doesn't even have that feature.
There is another.

Teleportation in Star Trek is "beaming", but worm holes are the alternate means of teleportation. There is no notion of death when traveling through a worm hole.
There is the College for Creative Studies (CCS) which is located in the heart of Detroit, but the tuition is steep and attracts mostly kids who grew up in the richer suburbs of metro-Detroit. Most of them probably don't stick around long after they graduate.

My guess is most Detroit artists never went to art school. The money just isn't here.
Bitcoin is a 63 billion dollar market, you are being dishonest when you call these things frivolous crimes; people have lost their life savings playing in crypto, there's nothing frivolous about it. If you can't see the diffence between WoW gold and Bitcoin, then I suggest you look more into how many people have been financially devastated and robbed in each, because that's why the government cares more about crypto than WoW gold.

You're using the word subjectively incorrectly; the word you seek is selectively.

Bitcoin assets are not fictional, they translate to real dollars, Big Vern stole tens of millions of dollars of other people's assets. You are minimizing this for some reason that you don't make clear.

Equifax didn't commit a crime, having lax security is not illegal, getting hacked is not illegal. They may be been unethical about not disclosing shit soon enough, but there's no obvious crime to charge anyone with, yet; that may change after an investigation. Big Vern however stole people's money, that's a clear crime.
Haha, true.

Still, if that helps in one case per thousand, it's still better than none.
Ah, I see (pun intended). Thanks for answering.
Easy, easy! You're walking dangerous territories here. ;)
