If it was the case that these people somehow rigged the testing to make it seem less harmful (which isn't that far fetched), then that would be the scandal. But it isn't. This is known, even in the US.

This thing is known to be this addictive. That's basically only prescribed in exceptional cases elsewhere in the world. Basically it's not prescribed to otherwise healthy people who only suffer from pain (back pains, surgery pains etc). It's only prescribed to terminally ill people. Because it's better to use a slightly less potent painkiller and be in slightly more pain, than to be addicted to an opioid.

That’s fine, and I think it should be encouraged. I also think they should be fined, held liable for money damages in court, and that their executives should be investigated with the potential of resulting in jail time. You have to find ways to take the money from the company, however, not directly from the shareholders.
I've done some very basic stuff in EFI before and it's pretty rough. It's one of those things where I feel like you had to have worked in that area to not have to spend a week on a simple gotcha that has certain implicit behavior.

This is encouraging.

One of my pet peeves of late has been the ubiquity of black, grey, and white colour schemes.

Here in NZ and Australia, almost all new apartment buildings are some combination of those colours. It's not just new buildings - people are giving their houses the grey treatment when it comes time to repaint.

My own theory is that this has gone hand-in-hand with the shift from seeing houses as homes (and therefore as an extension of personal character) to now seeing houses as investments. No one seems willing to choose a colour scheme with character for fear of limiting the pool of potential buyers.

On top of that, new cars seem less likely to be any colour other than black, silver, or white. But maybe that's just my perception...
I would be more worried about issues similar to the diesel gate scandal where manufacturers start forging radiation tests results.

How much testing does the government do and how much is the industry self testing?
And some of the worst housing affordability. People who move out of the city can't justify to drive and park in Seattle.

It would be near impossible to navigate Metro, SoundTransit, and surrounding transit agencies without OneBusAway or Google Maps. Idk, SoundTranist also tried a massive money grab on car tabs on inflated valuations. They are doing just as much to undermine support for transit as anyone.

When you don't have to pay a driver, I don't see why that is the case. A bus costs around 1/2 to a million dollars. A very good used car is 2 grand. Electric car motors are expected to last a million miles and the rest of the car, excepting tires, brakes, and batteries, can be made to last that long also. Electric cars are likely to be less expensive that ICE cars in the long run.

Automatic vehicle systems today could easily run in a tunnel or other highly controlled road today. Small and large vehicles (cars and buses) could both use such a system. This would be a mass transit system that could work for everyone.

> The author built a strawman by assuming people who use the metaphor of computation literally mean that the brain has a von Neumann architecture [0] or something similar.

But I don't think his target is the neural-net style cognitive science that followed 70s-80s strong AI. It's contemporary neuroscience, which very frequently still models cognition as plain old symbol processing. There are thousands of fMRI-driven papers which do exactly this; neuroscientists still tend to work with a 20th century image of cognition (and a 19th century one of consciousness, but that's another story). This is not a straw man. It's alive and well and driving millions of dollars worth of research.
You do realize that by driving, you're making the problem worse? The real solution is to just get more cars off the road. There are few excuses to be driving alone in a city.

This is the truth. There's a lot more to this - so much so that I decided to make a documentary about it. I don't mean to promote it (there is nothing to promote yet, for now it's just a website), but here it is if anyone is interested http://FoodLies.org

While that is correct, and I would also personally prefer that we continued to use e-mail based authentication for other reasons, Facebook does have measures in place now that make it more difficult to create loads of fake accounts.

Specifically, they now require a phone number to create an account. Getting a new phone number is more difficult than creating an e-mail address, so this will prevent at least some of the fakes.
>Calories matter. If you eat too many, you get fat. Some calories might be "better" than others, but they are a standard of unit of energy for a reason. A calorie is a calorie.

That's quite irrelevant though (besides tautological), as we don't just eat calories, we eat food that has calories and tons of other stuff in different arrangements.

A calorie being a calorie doesn't cover whether the food you got the calorie from makes you satiated, or conversely makes you eat more, or makes you feel more energetic, or makes you store it as fat, or brings hormonal changes, etc.

A "milligram is a milligram" too, a standard unit of weight, but 1mg of cyanide can kill a person, and 1mg of water won't do anything to them.

>Would you like to try the butter diet? I can guarantee you you'll get fat.

Again this presumes that people can just eat, regardless of what they eat -- and continue to eat it without that affecting anything else. I guarantee you if I ate just butter, I'd threw up after several hundred grams, and feel quite bad and stop the diet after some days.
This is just a scam.
It seems that you add more features, you attract more users, but I think that if you've prioritized your features 'right', each additional one makes your product attractive to fewer and fewer marginal users.

Also, when you get really down in the weeds, I bet it's easy to have a daunting feature list that people bounce off of, especially if you don't have a clear separation between marquee/headline features and detail features, meaning you might make your product attractive to an additional 1% of users, but 5% of your existing potential users fall out of the funnel because of the word soup.

They could be certainly correlated but why would you assume that growth automatically means an equal (or slightly higher in this case) ridership? After all, the out of towners all didn't take the bus there. Most public transportation I've experienced (subways, buses, trollies, local trains, etc) have a lower-band economic class, for reasons that I could only assume and is an entirely different topic. These lower economic classes aren't pushing the growth of Seattle's population. If Seattle is getting the middle and upper classes to take the bus then they very-well deserve kudos.

It's very important that people understand _how_ and _why_ the flux pattern is valuable before they start using Redux, especially if coming from an MVC background. Once you understand that, the learning curve drops away revealing an extremely minimal and easy-to-use library.
Of course it’s a strain relief.

It really bugs me when people complain about Apple cables not having strain reliefs. They don’t have huge ugly strain reliefs, and maybe that means they aren’t good enough, but they definitely exist.

Not sure why this is being downvoted. Marketing involves a lot more than advertising. At my current job I mentioned my surprise that no one from marketing was embedded with our dev team and got a querulous response that “why would we someone from advertising or PR in our dev process?”

My response was that marketing encompasses both designing and selling products that meet customer needs. We needed a product manager who does the customer research to help us determine our target customers and to build the right product to meet their needs and wants, and who will design a marketing plan with the relative priorities of advertising, PR, promotions, and various sales channels (direct, reseller, etc) to most efficiently reach target customers with an always limited marketing budget.

As an aside: What can be a thousand times more efficient than Google AdWords or any advertising ever? Good PR. No one should ever spend a dime on advertising without first considering whether they have a compelling story that media outlets will publicize for free, with just the cost of a dedicated or even part time PR resource.

I spent $1,500 on a PR contractor for my 2nd app, with 3 months I had positive reviews in PC World, CBS Marketwatch, etc, and my highest sales ever. In the end I’d estimate his efforts produced at 20-40x his cost in revenues. I’m dumb enough that I never did it again.
This is not the same as Go's defer, as this honors scope; this is similar to D's scope guards (and hence the name of the C++ class...). In Go, when you use defer, the code in question is deferred until the end of the function, no matter in which scope you used the feature: this means that if you have a loop in which you use defer, everything is deferred until well after the entire loop finishes, not during each execution of the loop. This also means that Go has extremely... interesting?... behavior with relation to argument capture for the expressions used in a defer statement to make this even remotely sane. There are reasons the people who work on Go think this makes sense, but whether or not you agree with those semantics, the semantics implemented in this blog post are very different.

Also, what does it mean for intelligent computers to “leave us in the dust,” when we are “like fleas to them”?

1. They are so much more intelligent than us as to render us insignificant — because we all know that intelligence is what makes people significant and worthy.

2. They are better humans than humans, not just more intelligent in a problem-solvy way but more moral and compassionate as well; truly “better” (there has been sci-fi about this rather fanciful but easily written scenario)

3. We build “wilier” machines/software that, given the power to do so, can out-strategize us and win in battle, or outcompete us in the economy. This is quite possible. Obviously we should limit the power (physical, legal, etc) of this software. There are real legal and economic issues here — not to mention futuristic disaster movie plots that could become real — but not moral ones.

4. We build artificial life that’s way smarter than us, and it decides it doesn’t care about us because we’re such dumb simpletons. The same way we don’t care about bugs, presumably because they’re dumb, and not savvy wisecrackers like the main character in Bee Movie, voiced by Jerry Seinfeld. But why would we expect intelligent software to decide to care about us, anyway? To judge us and find we have merit? If someone told me they made a machine with a concept of what other beings are worth and it found me unworthy, based on reasons such as its being waaay more intelligent, I would not be surprised or impressed, or more than mildly insulted.

Edit: I guess people are worried about some combo of 2/3/4, where computers whose judgment we agree with basically say humans are lesser beings — like bugs — and we think about it and are like yeah, you’re right. Or computers are so human we are compelled to give them the rights of humans. I’m just not sure that actually makes sense, or at least it will take decades with many intermediate stages to talk about first.

I get a big check when my code goes beta, but there are some significant bugs I must fix.

When I get my beta check I will contribute to someone else's GoFundMe campaign.

I've been on a ketogenic (very low carb, no sugar) diet for a little over a year. At the beginning of the diet, I started eating MORE than I used to, and tracking calories religiously, including weighing my food. I never miss a meal now and eat breakfast every day. The biggest thing I cut out was sugar.

In that time, I lost 45 lbs, going from 210 to 165. I didn't exercise or do anything else. That weight came off in about 3 months.

I am now commuting 11mi by bicycle most days, I feel better than I ever have. I fit perfectly into a few things I owned in HS (I'm in my 40s and was a skinny kid).

Sugar is the worst.

Working on an app to connect content creators with advertisers, and in my search for content creators I've been pulling a lot of reddit data. Thought this was fairly interesting so dropped it into a table. Unsurprisingly, ~75% of top posts are from image/video hosting domains.
Please limit it to 3 to 5 max, and write a line or two saying why you like it, for each one.
No, not just parking. For every passenger that takes a train, that’s one passenger not sitting in a car that takes much much more space. An average subway train can fit around 800 people seated, and takes up much less space than 800 cars. It is precisely how much space vehicles take while being driven that is the issue here.

Likewise, “flexibility” is precisely the issue here. Why should a train carrying 800 people have effectively the same priority as a car that carries one, maybe two or three people?

I know that it’s tantalizing to think that cheap tunneling can solve this issue, but you are just outsourcing the fundamental problem that traffic exists because people want to go places.

A good example is going to the airport. People need to get off, unload their luggage, and there’s only one place you can do it, at the departures terminal. No amount of self-driving is going to solve the problem that the transport vehicle needs to stop, let these people off with their luggage, and start again.
Senate Bill 649, which passed the California Legislature last month, would have restricted local governments' abilities to block antenna placement and would cap the rates that they could charge telecom companies for installations on public property, such as street lamps or traffic lights.

It feels like it’s more about telecom companies trying to restrict the rent local governments can charge that is a bigger deal here.
Because what you're primarily saving with public transport is not the cost of the vehicles themselves, but all the infrastructure needed if people who would otherwise take the bus all own cars.

Sure, if the 50 people on the bus all buy used beaters you'll probably come out ahead, but once you start thinking about the real cost of the land in big cities needed to park those 50 cars it gets expensive real fast, and that's before factoring in extra load on the road system and other externalities.

I read somewhere that the real benefit of trams or light rail tend to come from the fact that they often come with a redesign of the traffic flows, right of way etc. Whilst busses are often stuck in the old traffic jam.
I lived in Seattle in 2011/2012; the bus was so bad that I bought my first car. So maybe it was worse before, but I did not find it a very good way to get around.

I'd suspect it was less to do with the edge, which isn't especially huge especially over the short run, and more to do with the authors' unusual selection of bets entirely overlapping the bookies' ad hoc analysis of bets they've mispriced. Particularly since the bookies watch each others' odds (as do scripts sold to wannabe arbitrageurs on the internet). Having a subset of winning betters with an information advantage may even help bookies overall if they know who those people are, but they'll want to limit how much they pay out for that information. Especially if the limits are market specific, and the section of the paper highlighting betting limits shows a screenshot of an attempt to place bets on Australian youth association football...

But $900 is pocket money bookmakers are willing to give away: around the time this study collected it's first data points I made more from fewer bookmakers just from intentionally +ve expectation welcome bonuses (and that was after they'd responded to the first wave of people pocketing welcome bonuses by eliminating them... for people from Denmark)
I don't drive, but its hard to argue against the convenience of actually getting where you need to go in a reliably manner.
Tunnels can be put underground with a large number of levels if need be. People don't really like the space efficiency of standing packed right next to each other for an hour.

People don't like taxes either :) Boring is expensive, boring more is more expensive. And to achieve the same throughput of people you'll need something like forty times the number of lanes; just imagine trying to get all these cars entering and leaving the tunnel the same time as a single bus: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3662/3398936283_f32ac7d42a_o....

An alternative would be to have trains with platforms with regular seats, and platforms for transporting cars (like Amtrack's Auto Train, but open). Then people willing to pay for the extra space could do so.

What is this "devops" you're talking about?
The thing is, everyone wants to protect their $600 “investment”. So if you make the phone bigger so that it’s more rugged, people will still put it in a case to protect the housing. So now the rugged phone is just massive and no one wants to carry it.

Now, if the rugged bits of the phone were easily and cheaply swapped, that would probably make it more appealing. But I can buy a new case for my phone for $10, so it’s hard for the rugged version to compete effectively.
It's a known trick also used in the standard library of C++. For instance in multithreading

{
std::lock_guard<std::mutex> lock(some_mutex);
...
}

owns a mutex for duration of the scope. The constructor claims it, and the destructor releases it.

But yeah, it has downsides. If you would not name the variable, and do `std::lock_guard<std::mutex>(some_mutex);`, then its scope is limited to a single line, and the lock is immediately released.
