You are allowed to photograph and film the police in public. Every US appeals court that has considered the issue has so ruled. It's possible that one of the circuits that has not considered the issue could rule the other way, but that seems unlikely.

Nowadays, Netflix alone is about 40% of traffic. Throw in youtube and you're already over half.

But even pirated content had largely been migrated to centralized streaming services. Megaupload started that trend, although I'm not sure what the leaders are now.

When people search for pirated content, they use streaming. When people want to listen to a song, they use youtube or spotify. When people want porn, they use PornHub.

I use bittorrent for linux ISOs and such, but I certainly haven't used it for video content in years, and most people I know don't use it.
>Even assuming that it cannot be met (that's your assumption, not mine)

With 350K tweets per minute I feel that is a much more likely assumption than the opposite.

>I don't understand. Do you have some kind of scientific proof that Twitter cannot do any more than they're doing now to reduce the rampant harassment in the community they've built? Twitter is not some natural phenomenon. It is a community built by people

I know they are taking some action already - with muting features and suspending certain accounts. I know whatever action they take manually cannot scale to stop most abuse. So there WILL be harassment. A lot of it. Ultimately its up to what people choose to do, and they have very little control in that.

Pretty much all online communities tend to become toxic without moderation, so when I see one of the biggest online communities in the world becoming toxic, and I know it cannot be effectively moderated... well my reaction is not to blame the people running the forum. The hate there is a reflection of hate in society.

I don't have proof that they cannot do any more, but I would ask if you have reasonable standards for how much they should do or proof that they are not meeting those standards. I just feel an online forum only reflects the views of its community, and as such it is not within their power or responsibility to change the people posting there. I feel the hate is better directed at the hateful people. This feels analogous to blaming paper manufacturers when people print hateful things on paper. They only create the medium, not the message.
Antifa and Neo-nazis are both a scourge on our body politic. But since pretty much everyone I know agrees about the neo-nazis and their ilk, I feel a much greater urgency to call out Antifa and its ilk.
The problem is that this independence movement is not really an independence movement. In the modern world, no political entity can truly be independent. All are dependent on their neighbors.

True independence became extinct when people stopped living subsistence agricultural lives.

So the Catalan issue is more about how the EU is structured and whether nation states are the appropriate level of division for the different territories in the EU.

Even outside the EU, nation states like Ukraine cannot be independent because they have too much dependency on Russia, the USA, China, Turkey and so on.

Sovereignty is another question, but confusing it with independence is wrong.

Do you think globalisation has not rewarded capital more than labour?

Do you think globalisation has not made it easier for wealthy people to hide their assets from governments?

Because I think both statements are factually accurate, not opinion. The only bit that was "opinion" was the suggestion that the reader should perhaps be surprised. It doesn't seem a stretch.

I'm using growing income inequality as a proxy for rewarding capital vs rewarding labour. It's well-known to everyone that middle-classes in Western countries have had the rawest deal from globalisation, and that large populations in poorer countries have seen large relative increases. But that isn't the same thing as saying that globalisation benefits labour more than capital; it doesn't. It also isn't a judgement as to whether globalisation is good or bad; overall, I think it's a good thing, we're better off with fewer poor people globally.
Hi, I’m the original inventor of React and I really like SML, however SML just didn’t have a few of the escape hatches or advanced features that were needed to implement a very usable, extensible, and type safe React interface or implementation, so I eventually explored the OCaml type system and I found that it has many of those missing links. One surprise was that when showing it to fellow UI developers, I would constantly be met with confused looks and after digging into people’s feedback, I found that most developers weren’t seeing the same thing that I was seeing on the screen so they weren’t able to see the ideas expressed in the code. The syntax was very commonly cited as a major point of friction. I don’t see anything wrong with OCaml’s syntax but my opinion alone doesn’t matter because a major goal of software is to collaborate with other people - who matter.

To fix the problem, a couple people from various parts of Facebook got together and started building/testing Reason together, and eventually we shipped what is likely the largest (in terms of machines (billions)) OCaml deployment ever via Reason React.

There’s still many pieces of OCaml beyond syntax that should be improved and we would like to continue fixing all the blockers to adoption that we can. Thankfully the rest of the OCaml community has the same goal and are doing great things at deeper parts of the toolchain and compiler. Our story started from the UI use case so our work and messaging so far has centered around it.

It's hard to imagine that OCaml's libraries/tooling would be the game changers (drop in the bucket by comparison to the vast JS ecosystem). Would be nice if SMLtoJs compiler got the corporate backing though.
whether or not globalization is good or bad is an opinion

You'll note that judging whether globalisation has helped capital more vs labour more is not an assertion of goodness or badness of globalisation, either way. Just like someone can say that cars make road accidents more likely (fact), without it being a judgement on whether cars are good or bad (opinion).

I think you've been triggered and are reacting to something that wasn't written; you've over-read into the piece.
Some truth to this possibly. This sort of concern would be addressed by the library ecosystem rather than "the language", which might not be for everyone. I mean PS arrays/records map to JS arrays/objects as far as passing/return them, but for those few cases where you really need to mutate inside-a-(no-longer-pure)-func, it's JS-FFI-hackery or (more likely often) a readily-available 3rd-party package offering the persistent or mutable data structure to serve the need at hand. Might not want to write your WebGL 3D game's game loop or a very mathy 2/3/x-dimensional "big array" re-calculation entirely in PS perhaps, sure enough. Depends on what apps you have in mind I guess. Typically in JS what's become more common recently is to map over the structure, extract the small sub-set you actually want to process (reduce/filter) and in the end these copies often turn out small and not so scary. But as always, "it depends". Truly the PureScript/Haskell/Elm family makes mutation harder than all other languages --- with the flip-side that they make immutable purely-functional expression vastly more ergonomic IMHO =)
As a society, are we ready for self driving cars? It seems to signal the start of the next industrial Revolution, with truckers and taxi drivers going extinct, with more industries to follow. Machine learning has so far been kind of in the background, with this it's very front and center and will directly impact millions of people.

Also, I've always wondered, if self driving car crashes who is legally liable? Is it the programmer or the occupant?

(Personal/Professional/Health/Hobbies/Relationships).

Try not to put an emphasis on professional/business things.
Generally those have the highest priorities, and don't need as much active attention in this context.

Goals should start at 5 years out and work backwards to next week.

Every morning/ start of each week/start of each month- review your goals and allocate "hard time" to them.

Want to learn guitar? Good. Tomorrow at 3 o'clock go to the store and buy one. Don't research the best guitar manufacturer for weeks and eventually buy it, just ask the guy behind the counter his recommendation and buy it on the spot. Next week, Tuesday 6pm- Sign up for music lessons for every Wednesday at 6pm for the next 6 months. No exceptions. Do not let anyone or anything take that time slot away from you.

But you may say, I'm the only one that can do "X" task and I'm needed at that time slot every week. Then build fault-tolerance in that task. Either with multiple people knowing how to do what you do, through documentation or automation. Engineer a solution to your time problem.

Or if you're the founder of your startup, and you can't justify taking a 3 hour break once a week.

You're lying to yourself.

I highly doubt you are completing work at 100% duty cycle if you are working 60-80 hours a week. Getting a few hours a week of "you" time each week is a small time investment, for huge returns in more effective decision making for the rest of the week.

This may vaguely fall under meditation, but knowing that you are tangibly and actively working towards things that you value, will prevent you from getting "time depression".

Yes, I just made up that term. "Time Depression" as I call it, is doing the "same" thing day-in and day-out. As a result, you get depressed since you "feel" like you didn't accomplish anything.On paper, you closed 90 issue tickets last month and committed more code than anyone else on your team.If you did all that, and don't have a feeling of accomplishment. Then you need "you" time.

Now go buy that guitar.

Jackie is Chinese. He ought to be pro-China. In the WaPo article you linked, he says the following:

If our own countrymen don’t support our country,
who will support our country? We know our country
has many problems. We [can] talk about it when the
door is closed. To outsiders, [we should say] “our
country is the best.”

and

Seriously, I am always like, when the door is
closed, “Our country is like this and this. Who
and who is not good.” But outside, “Our country
is the best, like so and so, is the best.” You
cannot say our country has problems [when you are
outside], like “Yes, our country is bad.”

Can you fault him for that? Perhaps it is the American standard that is wrong. Perhaps it is wrong to talk poorly of your own state on the global stage. Just because Americans (who own the fruits of 70-odd years of global dominance) are willing to disparage their country to no end, does not mean that it should be a standard for everyone.

Just want to say I'm really excited about Bucklescript and the collaboration with Reason.

I started using the Reason syntax, but soon ended up migrating my project to vanilla OCaml as I found the syntax less JavaScript-like and easier to follow when thinking functionally vs imperatively. Also, there are many more tutorials out there (currently) for OCaml than there are for the Reason syntax.

As I understand it the two syntaxes are pretty much interchangeable, both use the same underlying AST, the same compile-to-JS backend (Bucklescript) and can even be auto-converted using `refmt`.

Also, if it's important to you, only the Reason project seems to still be encumbered by Facebook's patent grant, while the Bucklescript project was originally started by Bloomberg and now seems to be an independent project without the additional patent clause.

Both projects are really exciting as a practical way to bring type safety into the browser, with ridiculously fast compile times and tiny bundles.

This is a perspective I wish was more prevalent in the programming community.

Because the central government refuses to allow for a real referendum.

This is tiresome. Central government has not the power to refuse or allow a referendum to decide to commit a crime. Exactly the same as police has not the power to declare drugs legal. Please, if you really really want to have a rational conversation, stop parroting politicians' excuses. There are the basics, like "sensible people doesn't riot and attack police for a marginally relevant tax complaint or alledged cultural peculiarity" and if you can understand that this is the foundation, you should consider the possibility that someone is fooling you.
Everyone here is criticizing Teforia but what about some of what they did right? I just ordered 2 classic infusers, because they built a machine that can accept their teas AND any looseleaf tea you buy, and brews it wonderfully, better than most of us could accomplish without overly babysitting the tea and using pressure devices like the french press. You will honestly not taste tea with as much flavor as the teaforia infuser extracts - thats a huge accomplishment. Their device didnt do any BS K-cup opening through sharp prongs, with a messy garbage bin. You simply scan the tea and dump it in the infuser. Honestly, I think the company may have issued a forclosure but through the sale volume with the discounts they are offering, the investors will be impressed and change their mind about teaforia. Sure, the initial prices were too high but there is a market for what teaforia created. Sometimes we have to stumble and rid ourselves of greed before we let our precious creations become more commoditized, ie cheaper. I forsee a 3rd party market for teaforias becoming pretty large if TeForia shuts down. The sips are cool but the device is really the magic.

Good single-page app development is just as clean (I've done both), and will be faster over the long term, and scales out better. It keeps all the components cacheable and DRY. The benefits are all about data locality. If your code and data are cached on the client, then the only the minimal subset that has changed needs to be invalidated and updated. If it's only data that has changed, that's all that's retrieved. If it's only code, same goes here. For old-school MVC, if a single character has changed, the whole page is invalidated and must be re-rendered.

The tangible benefits when done right (there's lots of crappy code in every language and system) are greatly reduced user-perceived latency (the system reacts immediately, indicating that something is currently being updated, etc).

> The gov't operates at the behest of the citizens of the US.

Then why are lobbyist surrounding the capital with wads of cash? If wealthy interests didn't get a return on investment, they wouldn't keep investing. And since they are coming back and they do get a return on investment, then the government isn't serving the citizens but rather the patrons.

For this reason, the citizens won't get a great return on their tax dollars. The problem seems to be getting worse rather than better.

That's how America operates. We can still turn it around though, I hope.
Their demographic is tea drinkers who are ignored by the coffee industry. We have all these coffee makers that have k-cups, but nothing for tea. And tea bags are 2nd rate, they float above the water depending on the tea, and never brew right. It is for sure directed at a more premium market, people who care about quality. But I wouldn't say that market is vanishing - they got their price a bit wrong. The prices they are selling at now will result in a conplete sell out. The classic teaforia infuser works on any tea..not just the sips containers. Id like to see them come back in style - I dont think this is the end for a great glass on glass tea machine. They did not sacrifice on purity or taste, much respect to Teforia.
