So far I've learned a bunch about WordPress and php, and overall I'm pretty happy with the results. However, I haven't worked on it for a while, and honestly I'm not sure what do to next. Any advice/suggestions appreciated.
It maps observations where you have a clue about how they were created (priors) to a stochastic function. So quite literally, you end up with a probabilistic program.

There are many solutions for each prior. Priors can for example be expressed as computational graphs with random variables.
The competition is starting your own company and cashing in on many millions or billions from it. I think it's perfectly reasonable for the highest achievers to have that in mind as the alternative to compare against and hold some ambivalence on whether they are maximizing themselves.
Are there actually? Can you point me to one such company?
There's also the dud rate that's a contributing factor here.

IIRC from a recent article regarding potential DPRK artillery salvo on Seoul the civilian casualties are in the tens of thousands.

South Korea kind of like Israel have bomb shelters everywhere. So DPRK only has a very limited number of salvos before people realize what's happening and seek cover (also counter-battery fire).

IMHO South Korea should have moved their capital a long time ago. They had 50+ years.
Their business is almost entirely based off of iphones right now. If they focus on improving their desktop and laptop brand, they may be able to get some traction there. Perhaps if they make a lower-end line of computers or phones -- although I doubt they'll do that since they want to be seen as a 'premium' brand. Google isn't really more diverse than apple, something like 90% of their revenue comes from adwords. They keep trying to diversify and make a profit off of other venues, but they keep failing at it.
Bitcoin is still the word most strongly associated with blockchain. So whenever someone wants to make money off that new blockchain thing Chad made a million buying, they default to Bitcoin.

Then Phil and Susie also made money since Tammy and Jeff bought in as well, so Tom and Jennifer buy it too. Etc.
My goal is very much to reuse Go packages. It is somewhat working today. The underlying mechanism is when you type something like:

import "github.com/pkg/errors"

A .go wrapper file is generated, a Go plugin is built, and then loaded into the ng executable. You can then use the errors package in the Neugram evaluator. Under the hood the lifting is done by the reflect package.

Very much my goal is when scripting, to use the os.Open and ioutil.ReadFile I know, along with filepath.Join, time.Now, and friends.
What they are demonstrating is clearly for experimenting layouts and screens with their own predefined elements. With broken up elements and basic design kits like paper CSS, this would be a very useful tool for quick prototyping.
What? Why would US bomb its main trading partner because NK bombed the US?
You also see this in chip design EDA tools, at least the good ones. Not only will they record the equivalent CLI command that affects the "data", but some will also record the commands that solely affect the GUI! (e.g. resize window)
> We brought our forces home after WWII

We brought some of them home. The US still had a quarter of a million troops in Germany in the late 1980s. In the 1950s, there were still 300,000 to 400,000 across all of Europe (eg 50,000 in the UK in the mid to late 1950s).
Reminds me of the gamer episode of Black Mirror.

My initial question was how did he sell $1B and not affect the share price substantially. And sure enough, the share price did drop a bit. But average trading volume is about 2 billion shares, which is about $2B. It's pretty crazy that the market has so much liquidity that $2B of AMZN changes hands every day, and that it could soak up a $1B sale and barely change the price.

Software Engineering Maxims Which May or May Not Be True
I agree that cobalt is a fairly small proportion of the total cost of the vehicle. Tesla should be able to weather many multiples in the increase in cobalt price. I'm more worried about the dreadful notion of a complete supply disruption (akin to 70s oil crisis). I don't think this is a common situation and is generally unlikely in most markets but with cobalt there is a confluence of factors that seems to make it more likely: the byproduct of nickel/copper effect, the political factor in DNC, the lead-time to new mines, the potential for alternative chemistries to pop up and obviate cobalt, the generally pessimistic view of EVs outside of the narrow pro-Tesla, California green circle, etc. I basically think it's possible that the EV growth curve (50+% Y/Y kind of stuff) is only believed by Tesla and a relatively few people, and that these people aren't particularly common in mining circles.

My general perspective is that Tesla should derisk the miners by putting some money upfront on a contractual basis. Maybe it's Panasonic that does this. I'm happy to see that the rumor is the price spike to 25$\lb was brought on by hedge fund speculators. I think that's a perfect example of how Wall Street greed is actually good. The high price signal helps motivate the entire supply chain.

Thanks for your lengthy answer.
The other way to interpret these facts is that it takes a lot of work to actually detonate a nuclear weapon, so they are pretty safe by default and can handle abuse.
The relation to the go toolchain right now is your GOPATH is used to find Go packages when you import them. (It uses the go tool to build the package as a plugin for loading.)

You certainly could put your Neugram files in the same git repository as your Go code, and then "go get" would get them.

I think there is something to be said for something like:

import "github.com/crawshaw/foo/mypkg.ng"

looking for the .ng file in your GOPATH. I need to think about that a bit more.

(Note that a Neugram package is limited to a single file, unlike a Go package. This is for a couple of practical reasons, notably init order, and one philosophical reason: which is Neugram packages shouldn't get as big as Go packages.)

I was originally going for drama and suspense about what the machine was, but maybe writing that way didn't work as well as I hoped.
That depends on the context.

If the US loses one city, that'll be an extreme tragedy that the US can absorb, while obliterating NK in response.

If the US loses its top dozen (or more) cities in a nuclear exchange with North Korea, there's no scenario under which the American public won't demand retribution against the enabling power/s that made that outcome possible. China would be guaranteed to get nuked as a consequence, given its responsibility for propping up and nurturing the Kim dynasty. If the US loses half of its civilization, it will respond exactly as one might expect.

You can't actually think the American public is going to sit on its collective hands and suffer its outcome quietly? That they'd be ok with trading NY, LA, SF, Seattle, Houston, Washington DC, et al. for Pyongyang and call it a day, while China goes on about its business, its civilization unscathed, like its actions over five decades didn't make the North Korean threat what it was. If it weren't for China, the US would have destroyed the Kim dynasty during the Korean War and unified Korea. They're responsible in every possible way for what North Korea is today, they propped them up and supported each regime with full understanding of what was going on in regards to the North's nuclear program across decades. Even if I don't agree with that premise, of holding China accountable in such a way, you can bet a just-been-nuked-40-times American public will, they'll ask a simple question: who has been North Korea's primary supporting ally?
Well, there is a lot here that I think is good. A lot of this is about what a good developer should and shouldn't do, so I think some attention to what their employer should and shouldn't do is in order.

A good developer should be okay with making estimates in order to be relied upon to build important things- so far so good. But if you're the only person left, who handles a workload that should be enough for three, and random shit pops up all the time where someone is yelling at you that this must be dealt with, and nobody actually knows what they want so the idea of what is being estimated upon will change 4 times before it's done, and oh yeah our dev infrastructure is broken in various ways........ you see what I mean. There is a point at which committing to ship something in a given amount of time, even when all that other shit happens, is really just a brick in the wall of burnout.

Point made. But more generally there is little thought paid to what employers should be doing to hold up their end of the bargain, and ever more paid to what employees should be doing better.

Don't mean to be a downer, but it feels like we'll get to self-driving cars before we can automate/autopilot drones.

Of course. Japan's army was bent on total annihilation. If Japan had a chance to retaliate, they would have struck first.
Because the market knows ahead of time he's going to do this- it's pre-announced. Any shift caused by it would happen weeks or months ahead of time, slowly, quietly.

And so it's no big deal the day it actually happens.

That reminds me of more extreme work like Bret Victor’s drawing dynamic visualization demo, where drawing commands are reified and can be manipulated/abstracted in place. I saw Dan Ingals do this with some of his work, but can’t find a link ATM.

Extending a Tikz diagram (by additional lines/nodes, I assume?) just means adding more Tikz commands to draw the additional parts. If you mostly use automatic or relative placement, the diff will be fairly compact. If you use manual placement, you'll get some noise from the adjustments required to make space.

Caveat: I have only used Tikz for homework. However, I didn't usually have control, and the diagrams occasionally had to change when I realized I forgot some part.

CLI is nothing more than a form of GUI. Hence GUI is fundamentally superior and the only ones willing to live in the Stone Age of CLI are some coders. What is more ironic is people who think that any CLI can come remotely close to the power , flexibility and extensibility of GUI. There is literally nothing that the GUI is not great at,it’s just that most coders have no idea how to design a GUI and that is reflected in the terrible state of GUI APIs and coding in general. I have been coding 30 years now , started from CLI and as soon I could converted to GUIs and never looked back.
Another cultural reference, this one fairly recent. Author Nick Abadzis wrote a graphic novel about Laika's life and kept to the facts with a minimum of fictional embellishment [1]. He later got much feedback from readers who were upset at the sad fate of Laika at the end of his book. So much that he prepared alternate endings [2] to allay the tragic feelings invoked by the true ending he put in the original work.

Scrolled quickly through the comments and I want to ask one question: How good is this tool compared to commercial software?
The lightning connector is used for data transfer, not just charging.
The transaction was more of a donation. Companies that get bought are because the technology is strategically important or it is profitable (either business model scales up, or business functions overlap and you can reduce expenses). I'd guess that no companies with enough money to pay sufficiently more than $20K though thought either of those were the case?
It's simple orbital mechanics to calculate the trajectory. ICBMs aren't like planes, it's not like they just fly to the target and stop. It's powered during the first minutes of flight and then it just coasts from there. The exception to this is MIRV ICBMs where warheads are deployed one at a time and the final stage changes orbit a bit before releasing the next warhead. MIRVs can't change their trajectory that much though, you can target multiple locations, but they have to be in a couple hundred kilometers of each other.

Basically if there's an ICBM flying over China and it looks like it's going to hit NK, there's no way to kill all of that horizontal velocity and significantly change its trajectory.

The company wasn't bought, it went out of business. This transaction was just for the rights to the IP so that the open source project could continue under the same name.
I understand that most consumers don't understand, or don't care or whatever, but it's so frustrating.

The internet is not a dumb pipe -- making the right routing decisions and connections in the right places makes things better. On the other hand, the last mile is actually a place where things can be pretty dumb (fair allocation of shared mediums not withstanding).

I would love to pay an ISP for better routing and transit, but I can't afford to pay them for overbuilding in an area already served by a phone company and a cable company. I don't expect a municipality to spend the time and effort to get great routing and transit either; I expect they'll get service from one, maybe two big transit providers, and maybe network appliances from Google and Netflix, and call it a day.

When I need 10s of tracks (multiple drum mics, bass, guitars, keyboards, vocal mics, effects, etc.), I prefer to use Cakewalk Sonar. I've also heard good things about Reaper which is pretty inexpensive.

I often end up using Audacity when I'm working on only one or very few tracks (e.g., a video voice over). It works quite nicely for basic edits, trimming, normalizing, etc. without as much clutter (tempo, time signatures, measures, etc.) as some of the more music-oriented packages. With the addition of MIDI tracks, it sounds like Audacity is moving more in that direction but we'll see.
It seems like such a small one method change, in the context of forking an entire distro.

I wonder if PackageManagerService is hard coded in many places, rather than using XML dependency injection. If the latter then may it be possible to override the method in a subclass, e.g. MicroGPackageManagerService and distribute the change via a once-only installable zip?

That way Lineage OS doesn't need to break security, only downstream.
> I'd guess that no companies with enough money to pay sufficiently more than $20K though thought either of those were the case?

It seems like an official hosted RethinkDB that included enterprise support could generate pretty nice MRR revenue and take business from Compose.io (IBM). Shoot, wish I'd known, $20K for the ip and assets was a steal. Probably would have been exponentially more to a buyer who wanted to turn it commercial though.
20% does seem like a good deal for all those things, but it's important to remember that the top 20% already pays 95% of the taxes. So if those things are good they're only good because he's already been paying for them.

So if you enjoy the stable political system, strong asset protection, your free education, and relatively unpolluted environment it might be time to add Jeff Bezos to your Christmas card list to thank him for funding all that for you.

Who's the banana republic now? Indeed, the irony would be amusing if only this failure did not leave millions and millions of people with no money, no food and no hope.
>I am much much happier to trust the hardware than software for some of this

Most SIMs I know are black boxes, with 0 public documentation. Taking into account that they are issued by telecom companies I don't trust them at all.
I'm not affiliated with them but I like Bittrex. The main thing I like over some other exchanges I've used is the volume. Having good volume for any coin you are trading is important otherwise you end up competing with bots making it very hard to get a fill. Other things I like is very little down time, lots of coins, a decent if not stellar interface, and a good API.

In the cons I wish they would add new coins faster though they seem to be picking up the pace lately. That's about it. All in all, I'm happy with them and would recommend.
At least a few versions ago it was okay for basic stuff but quite far behind feature-wise to commercial software, which benefit from more integration, more polished UX, and a large bundle of plugins.

Having said that a tool is a tool and in capable hands Audacity is as good a tool as anything.
I would much rather that Bezos be allowed to keep all of his capital gains but have appropriate antitrust enforcement step in and reduce Amazon's market power a bit.

The recent upsurge of counterfeit products are evidence that Amazon is abusing its market power to the point of harming consumers.
The reason OP's complaint is a bit silly is because JSX is just JavaScript and there's no need to be doing everything in a single JSX expression in the first place. That would be bad code just like any other situation. Do what you'd do in normal JavaScript code: use multiple statements and put the conditional elsewhere. Given complicated conditionals, an experienced React dev would do:

render() {
let foo
if (someCondition) {
foo = <ChildFoo/>
}
return (
<Bar>
{foo}
</Bar>
)
}

or:

renderChildFoo() {
if (someCondition) {
return <Foo/>
}
}

render() {
return (
<Bar>
{this.renderChildFoo()}
</Bar>
)
}

or if possible, always render <Foo/> and conditionally return null in Foo's own render() method.

Apple does the QA/service well because of their focus on usability. Usability has been a focus since their founding.
