It's in the article: 68 drivers in the lawsuit compared to all drivers affected.

Nothing was against the law, the drivers were contractors. Whether that classification is correct is what the case was about, and now that the court ruled against, the drivers are must now be treated as employees.

This isn't society's choice. Full-time driver employment already exists, but is not something that Uber provided. These few people chose to drive for Uber anyway and demand full-time employment, and then sued for it. They won their case and now all drivers are affected by it. The democratic route would mean majority voting, which is the opposite of what happened with this case.

People who learned block letters first, and who rarely encounter cursive, undoubtedly find block letters easier to read. But you might imagine that if had learned cursive first and used it regularly, you would have no problem reading it.

The point I'm trying to make is that the preference for block letters is an accident of how most of us were taught, and not intrinsic to the writing style itself.
There's a cursive 4? I didn't even realize numbers _had_ cursive forms.

I understand why that would make you uncomfortable. ;-)

But to be honest, more than 50% of the cases where I needed data to be sorted in a certain way, that data came out of a relational database, and adding an ORDER BY-clause to the SQL query was so much easier than doing it myself.

I do agree with the second part of your comment in that Go has a certain type of application where it really shines. But that type of application is not uncommon, and when you hit the sweet spot, it really shines.

A significant part of the people that respond here seem to be offended by the lack of acknowledgement for the fact that Samsung had this before Apple had it. I find that a really interesting response from a psychological standpoint. Not the fact that the article could mention it although for the topic at hand it's not required, but just the fact that it actually is offensive to some people.

All I see is an Apple geek dissecting his new Apple toy and comparing it to his previous Apple toys and having a good time exploring it's capabilities. I wish I could read more stuff that goes a bit deeper like this.
PFS can slow it down a bit, but not much. Assuming before PFS everyone changed their keys every 3 years, and with PFS they change them every 2 weeks, then it should be about 80x harder (slower to break the encryption). 80x harder may seem like a lot but it's not that much in the context of quantum computers.

Also, PFS uses 256-bit ECC, which only requires a 512-qubit quantum computer to break it. So it's possible that a 4,000 qubit quantum computer, or even a smaller one, could break ECC with PFS even faster than it can break 2048-bit RSA.

If it weren't for the bad PR, Logitech wouldn't have done anything here, and I doubt this is the last time they'll be trying to do the same thing since companies have been gradually getting consumers acclimated to this being "the norm".

People should still be upset about this, even after Logitech's bean counters calculated that the negative PR cost would have been greater than the cost of doing the right thing in this instance.

WoW has actually toned down the Skinner box effect. People would get stuck trying to repeat an event 10 times with a 20% success rate per try. If you have a lot of players then the number of people screwed over by getting the long statistical tail resembles the participant count of your forums. Bad press.

So you get credit for effort. Your odds go up with each attempt until you succeed. Rare items though, still Skinner boxes.

There was a magical crystal that blessed the land with bountiful harvest every year, until civil war broke out in the country. Mysteriously the crystal shattered into a thousand pieces and parts of it fell all over the continent. Some parts were irrevocably lost.

After the civil war was settled, and the country split in two, famine ravaged both sides. It is up to you, my courageous wizard, to recover the parts that still exists, and to rediscover how to recreate the parts that were destroyed, and reassemble the crystal into a whole again.

> We discovered that VueX makes our lives easier. If you are writing a medium to large feature, use VueX. If it's a tiny feature, you might get away without it.

I feel like this is Vue starting to get the React treatment. React was (and still is!) a very simple library until people realized they needed to do fancy things to make complex applications manageable. Redux came out, everyone fell in love with it, and React+Redux became an official couple. This lead to the perception that React has a steep learning curve because new developers were learning React+Redux without learning React first.

I wonder what Vue can do to avoid the same pitfall.

So I tried to limit carbs to whatever was included in fruits, vegetables and nuts. And I really have limited my intake of fruit and nuts.

So my target was about 30 grams a day, which if you start reading labels is extremely difficult to pull off. I say its hard to pull off because almost everything in easily available food supply is full of carbs.

So my diet was pretty much restricted to meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables. If you go this route you'll quickly discover how much more expensive it is to eat healthy; which was the reason for my inflation comment.

Here's another fun fact. I have to get blood drawn every year to get a break on my company's health insurance. My doctor's jaw dropped when I went for my yearly physical. Not only did my weight drop, my cholesterol went down drastically.

Sweden, but on closer inspection it seems I was mistaken. There are, however, very strict rules:

• No junk mail addressed to anyone under 16 years of age.

• No TV advertisements directed towards, or meant to catch the attention of, anyone under 12 years of age. Additionally, in TV shows aimed at children below 12, there can be:

1. No commercials preceding or following the program, nor any commercial breaks in the program itself.

2. No product placements of any kind.

• People or characters from TV shows aimed at children below 12 are not allowed to do any product endorsements, in any context.

• All the above rules for TV shows also apply to the internet.

• Commercials aimed at anyone under 18 are not allowed to directly instruct the child to buy, or to ask anyone else to buy, the product.

• Commercials aimed at anyone under 18 can not be disguised as anything else; it must be clear that it is a commercial and nothing else. This includes in-app advertisements, which are therefore not allowed.

A variety of reasons; for example, the ubiquity of NAT plus the use of sleep modes means it's painful to get smartphone apps to talk directly to the hardware in question. Far easier and more reliable to have a hosted intermediary.

Additionally, the thermostat supports demand-response features (where your utility shuts off the thermostat), and can even pre-warm or pre-cool before the demand-response event as needed. The sprinkler controller checks the weather and works out optimal scheduling. Both receive regular firmware updates, and feed telemetrics back to the company for further improvement of their firmware.

Technically all of this could be done independent of their own hosted service, such that everything would still run normally without it. But there's a lot of connected features, and integrating a centralized hosted service simply makes everything far easier to develop.

At which point keeping a centralized service out of the equation becomes a feature requiring money & manpower to develop- a feature most customers don't care about, at that. (And let's be honest, what company wants to spend their energy on a future where they are out of business?)
> code that represents cold hard cash

People traded "cold hard cash" for tokens. Those tokens then got lost, stolen and changed in value. Speaking from the sidelines, people losing money isn't of particular concern. We're getting some interesting science, economics and art out of the process; re-allocating capital for those pursuits isn't particularly bad for society.
They do. I have been asked in the past to write as in my recorded sample or record a new one.
I didn't "ignore" that, it directly refuted it. The article sites studies that claim cursive takes far more fine motor skills than non-cursive and was harder to teach to younger children.
When I was a bio undergrad student I learned once (in discussion with a professor) about a disturbingly simple and effective GMO path to weaponized microbes discovered back in the 70s by some bio-weapons researchers. This was long before CRISPR. Totally ingenious, simple, and absolute nightmare fuel. I will not repeat it here. The ideas are out there but I'm not going to help anyone find it.

Suffice to say that I think it's pure luck that we have not yet had a biological 9/11 attack or worse. Normal people do have trouble imagining what psychopaths will do with things. Our brains do not naturally go there.

A good example is what is now being done with social media, mobile, and the Internet in general: radical "dopamine" gamification to make it actually addictive, extreme political manipulation, and all powered by ubiquitous surveillance. There's presently a race to develop the first true AI con artist capable of autonomously conning humans into believing arbitrary things. I did not imagine most of this in 2000 because I'm not a psychopath. I was aware of the surveillance dangers of the Internet but I never pictured the degree to which it would be weaponized against the population by amoral or actively malicious actors.

> So was cursive faster than manuscript? No, it was slower. But fastest of all was a personalized mixture of cursive and manuscript developed spontaneously by pupils around the fourth to fifth grade. Even in France, a quarter of the French pupils who were taught cursive exclusively and were still mostly using it in the fourth grade, had largely abandoned it for a mixed style by the fifth grade.

I was shocked at how cursive could be slower than block letters... but then realized that, yes, if you're doing all the curly things on Q's and Z's and F's then, yes it could be slower.

But nobody does those! A "personalized mixture of cursive and manuscript" is how I write, I just call it cursive, or "partial cursive". But it says that is faster, and presumably students wouldn't learn that if they hadn't learned full cursive at first?

So seems like teaching cursive is useful because in the end students do write faster. Except that maybe we should focus on teaching just the "fast" parts of connecting lowercase letters, and ignore all the fancy curly parts that uppercase letters tend to have?

Caravan (www.caravanmagazine.in) - pretty good long form pieces. Then there's a Hindi literary magazine - Hans (https://www.hanshindimagazine.in - it's a Hindi website with an option to translate the links I reckon). And, Fountain Ink - http://fountainink.in. They usually pick very interesting subjects, subjects that other media establishments either miss or just give less than a cursory look.

Just like books, I never had any success with e-newspapers and e-magazines. Distraction is just one worry. Though I manage to read some long form articles on the web every month or so.
In Go’s philosophy most problems are not exceptional. File can’t be opened? This is to be expected on systems with file permissions. The common pattern is for functions to return an error type as last return argument (Go supports returning multiple arguments). Programmers can then handle the problem right then and there if the error is not nil. This approach also helps to keep control flow straight forward. The happy path flows from top to bottom. If an error occurs, it is typically handled in an if-block. There are no nested exception blocks or exception blocks that follow each other and do things far removed from the exception’s origin in the code. As a result Go code looks very clean and is easy to follow.
