What's in it for the moderator? I assume they get a cut of the escrow?

How is the moderator's reputation visible to a buyer? If there's some kind of rating system, why would the reviews be useful at all? After all, any situation where the moderator has to act will leave one party pissed off.

This seems like a lot of complication just to buy something on the internet... unless what you're buying is heroin. In which case the whole 100% p2p thing starts making more sense.

Whoa, whoa, stop right there. Who's going to jail? These Nazis are kicked off Reddit, not into some jail cell. Nobody's going to jail, unless they actually punch somebody or something.

(Are there people who calls for throwing all Nazis to jail? Well, of course there are, and that's nothing new. There are even people who want to throw all $(choose your ethnic group) out of America, or so I've heard.)

The slippery slope is not that slippery, after all.
> The robots are designed to free up store employees' time so they can use it to help customers.

...which is bullshit; Walmart just doesn't want the "robots taking our jobs" angle here. If they consider the current level at which employees help customers in the aisles sufficient, then they'll be cutting jobs to match that level rather than "freeing up" employees to do more of it.
Agreed. There should (and probably will) never be another new element added to the spec after HTML5.
Hey, I'm Avi! I created HEML
You are 100% correct MJML has more features at this point. I think that the biggest sell of HEML over MJML is the way styling works. HEML focuses on letting the user style with CSS in a very native way and works to make that CSS as email-ready as possible. It also wraps a lot of HTML elements to make them safe for sending. MJML abstracts everything away to the point where you start to lose a lot of features of HTML and CSS, while also forcing you to learn their specific styling paradigm.

In the end, the goal is to make it easier to build better emails. If MJML does the trick for you, then that's absolutely what you should use!

A friend of mine aliased `git status` `git statsu`; I, being lazier, chose `git st`. Any time saved I lost by not copying his other alias, `c = commit -amSTUFF`...
Fun story:

I was in a sys admin class with a friend of mine and we both had access to the same machine to work on our assignments. I aliased each and every common command to `sl -f` on my friend's user as a prank (he never actually logged in as it turns out). However, my instructor, while projecting his screen to 150+ students (and recording) picked our box and my friend's user to use as an example. My instructor was flabbergasted for a few minutes and the class got a kick out of flying trains. :D

This all makes sense except perhaps for the flu. Only about 30% of people that come down with "flu like symptoms" actually have the flu. On the other hand the effective of flu vaccines can vary widely from year to year. This is because it takes months to make all the doses that are needed so the vaccine make up, which changes every year, has to be estimated in the advance. The actual prevalent flu though can change significantly by the time flu season starts.

The upshot is that the public doesn't necessarily perceive the benefit of the shot because a) they might get what they think is the flu (but isn't) and b) they might get a variant of flu that was not adequately covered by the vaccine. Obviously a more universal flu vaccine would help out a lot.
Some of them will probably be hired to walk around and greet customers, I noticed that on my last visit to Australia and NZ.

A lot of major chains down there, since implementing self-service checkouts etc, now just employ people to be friendly and give the brand and store some kind of face. It was interesting.

Kind of like hiring some warmth and personality for an otherwise cold and desolate warehouse.

A change in policy is just a change in policy. I would expect a reflection on the before and after states, some rationale. Even something as simple as a blog post stating that due to X, Y, Z, Reddit now considers engagement or whatever more important than free speech and will adjust rules and enforcement accordingly.

But there's more to it. It's not only Reddit or some other company. There is a general change in attitude from SV companies towards free speech. Which is what worries me because Reddit is eminently replaceable, Internet culture is not.

From Catalonia, and this is almost spot on.

The only thing being that not only businesses disrespect our culture, but the government and current main party do it too. And have been doing for some time.

They are descendants (sometimes literally) from the ones directing the dictatorship that ruled Spain until 40 years ago.

And they act like they had the same kind of power.

Walmart isn't the biggest company on earth by most means.

Last quarter, Walmart reported $31.8B profits on $123.4B earnings.
For the similar quarter, Amazon reported $14.5B profits on $38.0B earnings. So Walmart dwarfed Amazon overall.

Amazon's fresh results are great, and it helps to close the gap between them, but they are still much smaller than Walmart.

Unless you're talking online-only, in which case the comparison switch around, and Amazon is already much bigger than Walmart. But Walmart's online sales are a small percent of their earnings.
> and it costs basically nothing to implement too.

I find that hard to believe, given the scale of Walmart's operations - they have close to 5000 stores, and who knows how much technical debt they have in their stocking/inventory systems.
I can definitely see that; if you didn't have prime shipping, and more importantly imo, didn't live in a huge city where tons of items are deliverable to a plethora of nearby 'lockers' with 24-48-hour delivery. That probably has a lot to do with it, along with my experience that ebay is still pretty 'back of the mule' with shipping electronics internationally. Sometimes it's fast, but usually I forget I ordered something before it arrives.

But I do also order larger quantities of things from China, when I can plan ahead. I go to Amazon when I can't plan ahead, and more frequently these days, to get a working reference implementation up and running before I start running around making a BOM for a prototype. It's amazing how much time and money that can save you.
Wouldn't you also need numbers to arrive at the implication that foreign investment is?

The numbers, at least historically, have always been hard to find, but the macro economic theory and indicators are generally quite boring and straight forward: employment stays high and household incomes improve, interest rates drop, lending and leveraging increases to household, supply is inelastic, house prices rise.

Everything lines up pretty well, so why look to blame foreigners (who, even at the most generous estimates on what data does exist, are still a minority).

By bots I'm not talking about Trump fans who have Twitter accounts. I'm talking about actual bots. Huge networks of fake accounts with predictable combos of words for names based around Trump that solely post/retweet about Trump that only follow and are followed by 10s of thousands of similar accounts and use a specific schedule for hundreds and thousands of these tweets/retweets/likes. The kind of bots that take an innocuous trending topic like #WhatsUpWednesday and push 5 different anti-Hillary memes to the top of it. A full year after the election. And the 5 memes are the exact same ones they pushed to the top of a similar trending topic a month prior. It doesn't turn off 'liberal elites', it turns off anyone with a brain.

Forcing them into hiding isn't what radicalizes them. We dealt with hidden KKK groups in a pretty stable manner for 70+ years. Maybe it made the worst of them even more extreme in their views due to the persecution. But it kept their numbers limited and their opinions from becoming mainstream.

It's giving them an easily accessible echo chamber that radicalizes them and allows them to recruit. The internet has changed everything.

There are circumstances where violence is the only answer. Look at the Arab Spring. In hindsight, Egypt did not fix the fundamental social issues that led to their revolution, but they were faced with a tyrant dictator butchering people in the streets in 2011.

Almost all modern democracies came about through violent disposition of monarchies or dictators, and we only consider those good revolutions vs Nazi revolution or communist revolution being bad because, usually, people only want violence done to prevent violence in the future by the aforementioned murderers on the throne. IE, defend yourself or your neighbor and you are in the right, but if you overthrow the mob just to create your own mafia you are in the wrong.

Look at Catalonia now. Take away political ideology and ask the question - if a majority of Catalonians want independence (and that is a big if), and the Spanish government brings troops to bear upon them, is it immoral of them to organize their own army to fight back? That is inciting violence, but it is in the exact same capacity as revolutions for centuries were organized to overthrow regimes deemed undemocratic or unrepresentative of a people.

Not to say all revolutions are good. The American Confederacy was abjectly bad because their motivation for secession was to continue to own human beings as property. Or how Caesar overthrew the Roman Senate to become a tyrant himself. But unless you categorize the American, French, Spanish, etc revolutions of their times as all being "bad" because they were "inciting violence" then it is not a black and white issue where you can just say "we ban the inciting of violence because were being moral" and wipe your hands clean of it. Its way more complicated than that.
It's showing a small bump in 2004 after Bt cotton was first introduced, and a precipitous drop in suicides in 2006, when Bt cotton had more wide-spread adoption.

It's a rather small time-frame to draw conclusions from (especially since we should have 10 more years of data), but the obvious one you would draw from this graph is that Bt cotton is associated with fewer suicides, and the bump in 2004 was likely unrelated to the introduction of Bt cotton.

Is that, uh, what you thought it showed?
Negative gearing is when the house is run at a loss and the loss taken against regular employment income.

That would be when the rent doesn't cover the mortgage interest + maintenance costs.

The benefit is that the dominant form of income in the investment is the capital gains, which is under your control to take at a later date when you'll pay a lower tax rate.

Fundamentally, it is the Eternal September phenomenon - the majority believes in censorship by the majority.

Prominent individuals' opinions have shifted because they are now the establishment. Rather than a VC-funded startup with high upside and low downside, they are now an accounting-based business with high downside and low upside. The majority demands censorship - inevitable with centralized communications technology. And so they're forced to choose between opinions, and might as well go with the popular ones. The rest of the narrative is backrationalization.
I think they should pay more. However, it is harder to track than a yearly checkbox for if they had a flu shot.

It probably was the case 5 years ago that most homeless people in the US has some kind of mental problem. These people were almost all men and you would see them sleeping on the sidewalks or parks with almost nothing in the way of possessions. Now, at least in Oakland, there are tents everywhere. From single ones trying not to get noticed to tent cities with 10-50 tents all in one area. Many of these people have a piles of possessions and some still have jobs. Maybe not quite on the scale of Hoovervilles in the Great Depression, but getting there.

Somehow related, a coworker at a previous place unmounted some disks on an old AIX production box. It took him a solid minute to realise he had mistakenly unmounted / due to a typo (yes it was possible) as old processes with already opened files were happily serving stuff and only new attempts at opening files were beginning to produce errors.

Also, a similar interactive mishap in the heat of the action:

somebox:~$ rm * .o
rm: .o: No such file or directory
somebox:~$ # ...
somebox:~$ # *stares a prompt*
somebox:~$ # Wait, what? _Please_ tell me those C files were versioned! (The answer was, obviously, "no")
IRC is a successful form of social media that centered around communication and enriched our physical lives. It's nice to hear others have also held onto the friendships from that time.

When I hear people excited about slack, I see it as the modern day irc client, also focused around communication.

ICQ/AIM took a big chunk out of irc, but it still didn't allow people to connect in channels.

Now we have networks where people aren't communicating as much as sharing and interacting with moments.

I just wish designers would bring back good old analog knobs for radio/HVAC controls. "Automatic Climate Control" systems are bromcing increasingly common even on base model cars and it is slowly driving me insane. Cars are not houses, they do not have the insulation or internal volume needed to maintain a set temperature within 1-2 degrees, plus the enormous amount of glass compared to other surfaces turns them into a greenhouse even in cold but sunny weather.

I don't want to play the guessing game of "does setting the temperature at 68 mean I'll get cold or lukewarm air right now?" All I'm left with is a choice between full cold (60F) and full hot (90F) if I'm not in the mood for the computer's guessing games. When I want cold air, I want cold air. When I want lukewarm air, I want lukewarm air. When I have to pick a set point, I get air that isn't right half the time its running. What's worse is that many systems, like that on my Nissan Altima, will override the A/C selector switch. That means I can't help but run the A/C compressor, wasting gas, when I could just be drawing in outside air when the temperature is just fine.

Radios have been terrible for a long time now but the shift to user-unfriendly HVAC controls is the last straw for me.

> where will the line be drawn?

It's a difficult question. As much as I'm for free speech and against censorship, I still have the feeling that a line has to be drawn somewhere. For instance, we can't reasonably authorize Isis propaganda on public forums, can we?

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I suppose that calls to violence are already forbidden. I'm not familiar with US free speech laws, but I remember that Martin Shkreli has been jailed over some stupid joke on twitter.
If that were actually true then we would see wild differentials between poles and election results. I admit the possibility that results may be shifted a few percent either way, enough to swing an election, but this will only ever be at the margins. Should the population be truly set on one candidate or the other (more than 5% difference) then rigging would differ from poling very significantly and be detected.
I switched my own "native" time format to 24 hours years ago, in my head and on all my personal devices. Now I'm able to convert between the two formats effortlessly, and doing mental math on times is easier when I don't have to mix in a bunch of modulo-12 operations.

There was a T_D user who faked a knife attack. He said it was a black person who did it because "he was white". He immediately posted his bloody hand on T_D and said "apparently I look like a NAZI".

It was later found out that he made it up. He cut himself.

He did it intentionally to stir up hate for black people. The entire sub is effectively 4chan. Crass jokes, fake news, subliminal degenerate brainwashing.

It is a breeding ground for people to hate blacks and brown people.
