Just from the examples given, it doesn't sound like you did anything wrong... I like to take Teddy Roosevelt's mantra to heart; walk softly and carry a big stick. You can bend and bend and bend, and nobody will appreciate it - they just get all upset and pissy when you put your foot down and draw the line.

Probably I'm a jerk.
And no one has ever forced you to watch a particular TV station or read a particular news paper. By this reasoning nobody has ever forced you to use the internet either.

If the internet has a strong enough network effect to make its use basically mandatory then so does Facebook.
Another 1977-er, but I didn't get to it until I got a second-hand C-64 in 1986.
Your statements are needlessly accusatory, and increase rather than decrease friction. You could have said something like "Hey, I know you probably didn't mean it this way, but some people might read this into your statement. Do you see that too? What do you think?"
That's not what's happening, though. Brave is not running a streaming video service. They aren't hosting or distributing the content. There's nothing illegal about holding money and pledging to give it to someone if they ask for it (as long as you actually do).
You can switch domains.
WebGL is really cool, but in my personal experience, pretty hard to pick up, at least with no prior experience in graphics rendering type stuff. There's a lot of overhead to do relatively simple stuff. (In 3D anyway.)

In retrospect I maybe should have just started with ThreeJS or another higher level abstraction.
But then we all miss out on the title criticism criticisms.
The first amendment did not create democracy. It was enacted in one. That's the point being made.
Big rigs are some of the most reliable machines in the world, they regularly rack up millions of miles while in service. And they take a hell of a beating while doing it.

Consider if the attachment were a password protected zip, password "iagreetopay". Does opening the zip indicate consent?
The irony of course being that the US has even bombed USD cash reserves of ISIS. The USD network funds plenty of unscrupulous acts. It's a shame that people won't be able to see that equivalency though. When regulators come after Bitcoin, it will be from a conflict of interest, not a moral high ground.
When I bought drugs in high school, it was usually in cash. Sure, I concede multi-million dollar operations may have bank help, but I don't think you're thinking about the full picture.
I second this. I'm currently on a team that has a couple senior engineers, but neither of them are true experts of what our team does (iOS). One has decades of web dev experience while the other has decades of Java service experience. Our team badly needs an iOS expert to make the tough decisions and lead architecture.
We have slightly smaller, limited route buses in the DASH system here in LA. About 50c up front or 33c (or less) bought in advance.
Open Source or Open Standards? (Yes) the Future Has Arrived
I had dismissed the idea of AI being immediately dangerous as sensationalism until I saw this.

It does reek a little of the click-bait style. However, that might just be because click-bait is effective and the concerned persons are serious enough about this to step outside of a dry, academic style.
Mine went through the washer and the dryer, though I figured out that they were in the dryer after 15 minutes.

They still work perfectly.
We use ZFS at work. ZFS wants enough memory to be happy. One learns usually learns how much memory is too little by not giving it enough memory. Basically ZFS is great if you want the benefits of ZFS, and are willing to deal with the tradeoffs.
You probably shouldn't be unless your PhD is in Accounting or Finance.
IME, much of feminism focuses on patriarchy as a set of structures as the problem, not men, and that the patriarchy is neither exclusively supported by men and their actions nor exclusively harmful to women.
If their targeted ads are the yardstick, no, they do not. They may have a lot of data but cannot use it well.
I'm going to take the cynical view here. The issue is that there are rules around movement and use of cash that are clear that banks can follow to say 'not my fault' when terrorists use cash. No one knows what's illegal and legal for the movement of bitcoins. No one knows what compliance they need. How does investing in a currency where the regulations are likely to dramatically and suddenly increase in certain unpredictable ways play out? Can regulatory changes cause a huge amount of volatility and downward pressure?
You're probably protected by the US military, via US navy protecting shipping routes, or some other form of defense.
easy to switch , not easy to own.
Maybe because the current owners were done with it, and were no longer interested in running it -- thus wanting to sell?

Companies are owned by people, you know? They might not want to pass down (large) companies for 10+ generations, due to different interests and passions.

And neither is the ubiquity of any one particular software product. There are always factors beyond 'Was Bob a good engineer.' 95% of businesses exclusively used Windows in the early 2000s, but that doesn't mean that you should blindly hire anyone who worked on it.

The author of that blog post wrote Homebrew. Thousands of engineers use it on a daily basis. That's great. I use thousands of pieces of software, worked on by hundreds of thousands of people, on a daily basis. That doesn't mean I should skip the interview process, and hire all of them. Some of those people are rock stars. Some... Are awful developers.

Yes, skin color does matter, read up on Critical Race Theory. To be colorblind is to be racist because it ignores the disadvantages one can't see due to one's own privilege.

The theory states that inequality is due to racism and anyone who is part of the dominant race not only benefits from racism but unconsciously perpetuates it. This is why everyone is so sensitive, because this is what is taught in the humanities in college. "Everything is racist, everything is sexist, etc."

Germany's biggest postal service, the Deutsche Post (ex state monopolist) searched for an electric delivery van and couldn't find one. So they bought a startup and developed their own:

It won't have much of an impact as the deferred revenue is accounted for and is not the full price of the phone, but the value of future software updates ($25):

Sure you're right, some people would stay invested, some people would even re-invest during the price drop (dead cat bounce).

But the previous crashes weren't caused by any real news of a significant weakness of Bitcoin, so if there was news like that, then the crash would be worse than we've seen.
If you separate things out, you have to now manage version compatibility among different components. Which is a massive waste of time when they are going to be shipped as a single unit anyway. Things are indeed being broken up into packages, but they still all live in the same repository.

Microsoft goes one step further and checks the entire build system into the source tree too, compiler and all.

The effect of all this is that you can sync to any known-good version of Windows and just build it without worrying about other dependencies.
The basic assumption that Barrin92 is making is that the German government is benevolent and always puts the interests of its citizens first.
It's an interesting objection but I don't see why you'd have to assign a dollar value to it. Yes you might be overall doing well compared to other possible options but that doesn't change that you're still owing $100k.

Perhaps I'm not understanding the objection but it seems like an unfounded one.

Honestly, that "diversity drives innovation" is a total goddamn lie. Hiring the best people available drives innovation. Diversity itself has never been shown to be of any value.

If you look at some of the most innovative places in history, they weren't particularly diverse. It doesn't seem to have held them back. Renaissance Florence wasn't especially diverse, it was a bunch of Florentines sitting around doing Florentine things. Victorian London wasn't all that diverse, either, but they were innovating at an astounding rate.

Bell Labs in the 1960s was mostly nerdy white dudes with pocket protectors, and they were massively innovative -- because what drives innovation is thoughts like "What if we laid down amorphous silicon dioxide directly onto the wafer and annealed it to reduce electron traps?" rather than thoughts like "omg, I just saw a person with a different colour skin, my mind is totally blown".
The Atlantic published an interesting piece a couple months ago titled "Power Causes Brain Damage":
https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2017/07/power-c...

It purports that Henry Adams wasn't so off the mark when he proclaimed that power is "a sort of tumor that ends by killing the victim’s sympathies." The breakout quote here:

"Subjects under the influence of power, [Dacher Keltner, a psychology professor at UC Berkeley] found in studies spanning two decades, acted as if they had suffered a traumatic brain injury—becoming more impulsive, less risk-aware, and, crucially, less adept at seeing things from other people’s point of view."

The high profile cases surrounding sexual abuse recently seem to indicate that the problem is systemic. It represents an illness of society, humanity, or a factor of both that we can only insulate against by understanding the root of what is causing the issue and how to work against it. It's not as simple as: Louis CK, Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein and crew are evil.
Minsky's “And / Or” Theorem: A Single Perceptron's Limitations
"Git wasn't designed for such vast numbers of developers—more than 20,000 actively working on the codebase. Also, Git wasn't designed for a codebase that was so large, either in terms of the number of files and version history for each file, or in terms of sheer size, coming in at more than 300GB. When using standard Git, working with the source repository was unacceptably slow. Common operations (such as checking which files have been modified) would take multiple minutes."

These sentences in some parts gloss over the details, and in others it is flat out wrong. Git was designed for tens of thousands of developers (the Linux kernel), it was designed for huge numbers of files (but large numbers of files works fine on Linux due to the dentry cache, it sucks on Windows because they don't have a cache that has the same behaviour as the Linux dentry cache). Admittedly it is slow for files that are large in size, but it was designed for source code; what sane developer would have source files that are hundreds of MB in size?

That said, monorepos with several dozen software projects can be very slow due to O(n) functions such as git blame and the like. It's true that git wasn't designed for large numbers of projects in one repo that are only indirectly shared by library code and the like.

Unfortunately that was not written in the article.
I have the similar PowerBeats3. W1 chip and connecting cable but a bigger battery housing. I use them for cycling (I know) and they’re great. I think the Bluetooth dropped out once in over a year. Battery life is great and they just work.

He's saying it's fragile in that the US Government could ban it and the value of the coin disappears overnight.

It's very easy to ban - make it illegal to sell Bitcoin, force ISPs to block international sites that do.
I'm 40. I work 6-9 months out of the year. When I'm consulting I get great contracts, just wrapping up an idyllic green field Elixir and React product development. Zero to product in six months. Happy customers, happy colleagues. Now the weather here (NYC) is getting a bit cool so last night my girlfriend and I booked tickets to Thailand for the months of January and February.

Being an old software developer is pretty nice. Fuck, man—being old is pretty nice.
Use c++ on a daily basis. I think the direction the language is going is really really troublesome. It was a mistake to follow the boost’s lead. At this point language is more or less a clusterfuck. While python peeps are saving the world here on this dark side of the world we wrestle with move semantics. Simplicity and beauty of C is long gone.
There is a study on Amish gut flora and it's relation to the metabolic syndrome [0]. Old Order Amish are ideal for studies like that due to them having such a genetically homogenous population.
From a quick scan it seems like that even among the Old Order Amish there are variations between individuals gut flora, so I'm not sure they all have that "healthy gut flora" like the parent suggested.

If there is any ability for you to access the value at all, even in the case of bankruptcy, then yes you own the foundation, company, contract, work of art, crytpo-currency, etc.

I understand this doesn't mesh with multi-party signatures on the blockchain, but that's at least an argument to be made that you constructed a situation where you couldn't access it as a manner of evading being forced to do so, so it kinda breaks that you do still have access to it.
Depends on what you mean by distributed. If a repo contains 2 projects pA and pB and I’m only involved in the former while the other project has a 2GB binary asset with 1000 historical revisions, then I’m happy to just be distributed wrt my part of the repo.

To put it another way: A server with multiple repos on it is a central server with respect to the repos you don’t clone! This is the same, but for parts of repos.

What you should do is at the very least, vote for social democrat type candidates who can at least restore balance to tax code and enhance social programs. At best, advocate for the end to capitalism.

Since you aren't in the U.S., though, I guess there isn't much you in particular can do.

If you have access into their AWS, it's possible that you could either download the source yourself to find a backdoor (it was unclear if he had that access) or if none exists, upload one yourself.
The purpose you may see is not to “win” in the traditional sense, but American Presidents including Trump talking about winning wars and defeating the enemy. Most people know these conflicts are about business interests and resources, but they portray them to the public as a battle to protect our freedom and security at home.

Many of our politicians act like America is simply the victim protecting itself from people that are setting out to attack us. They don’t mention the American businesses that our military basically acts like a security force for.

> Everyone not in the ad industry loves to make claims about how its going to fall apart, but no one I've seen has the expertise and data needed to back up their claims.

That doesn't mean they are wrong. Frankly it fits in neatly with the theory that such data is not data that ad companies want to know, so therefore, they don't.

There is an overwhelming consensus by a huge number of very well informed and intelligent people pointing to the advertising business model as it exists now and saying, "This is not sustainable." I'm not saying they're right, I'm not qualified to say that, but the response from the ad industry is by and large to stick their fingers in their ears and hum loudly and that should make any potential investor worry.
It's posted on TPM on the "Editor's Blog" and the byline says "Josh Marshall is editor and publisher of TalkingPointsMemo.com." what else do you need on his credentials?

There are links scattered throughout, but part of the point of this post is that no one is really talking about this issue at least at the depth it deserves, so understandably it's light on references. In this case, I'd treat a lot of this as an original source.
That answer is quite bullshitty. I was there for many years and a few teams, and 8pm was NOT the norm. In fact, it's ludicrous to even imagine a busy Google office at 8pm.

6pm it starts to slow down, by 6:30 half the office is heading out.

Some people would get there super early and leave early-ish.

Look, at the end of the day it's about getting shit done and COMMITTING CODE. That latter part is something a lot of people refuse to accept. It doesn't matter how smart you are or how much experience you have or whatever... if you're an IC, then deliver high-quality code (and a lot of it), and you'll have a great career.
If by "not easy" you mean "a couple of years", sure.

Don't mistake what I'm saying. I'm using the word "own" rhetorically. Obviously there will be no point in your career where you are likely to be the world's leading expert on computer vision. What you're aiming for is to be the leading expert that is available to employers within a reasonable amount of time at the level of compensation you're hoping for.

It's a spectrum.

Obviously, if you invest heavily in a discipline and it is decisively obsoleted, that's a setback. I'm just saying it's not an insurmountable setback, and I'll add here that it's still unlikely to leave you behind the pure generalists; in the process of building expertise and accomplishment in cryptography or OS kernels or whatever, you're likely to become a pretty far above-average software developer as well.
That would still be programming specialization, as opposed to domain specialization where programming can be applied.

I used to know this guy who knew the ins and outs of the health club industry, and he could program a little. He made a lot of money. I think this is more in line with what tptacek is describing.
Once you've learned how to master a domain, mastering the next one is easier.
Even if the difference was that drastic, none of that accounts for the fact that tires only have so much friction.
Why would I choose to invest in something like this as opposed to (say) units in an property fund, ETF or similar?
I also recommend the BeatsX. I honestly have no complaints, and they aren't deserving of the scorn the Beats brand normally gets.
> About the free speech thing, people should say free speech when they mean free speech and not the first amendment.

My bad – I didn't even notice the comment to which you were replying had done this!

We might be disappointed tho in so far as "first amendment" comes to mean 'free speech' to too many people. I mourn the loss of precision, and I'm a little afraid of people conflating the two ideas too.

What exactly counts as "starting a war"? The Korean war is mentioned here as an example, but that war was started by the Korean communists when they invaded South Korea on June 25, 1950. The United States UN-sanctioned involvement was a reaction to that. Does that really count as "starting a war"?
I pay for the digital NYT for one specific section of it and if I could just pay for that part I would, but there's not an option to do that and the rate for the whole NYT subscription is cheap anyway.

I browse the rest of the NYT maybe a few times a week, but I largely just read the one section I like multiple times a day.

There's just a lot of competition amongst these big digital media organizations, most of which have many employees. And the article's author is right that they've been largely supported by VC money.

I think there is still room for good digital content that you can charge for (e.g. Stratechery), but creators will need to focus on a niche that customers find compelling enough to want to pay for (and I don't think finding one is that hard). (I'd also immediately pay for Matt Levine's Money Stuff column if he ever went independent.)

But most should be done with very small operations and staffs. The great thing about it is that digital content has such favorable marginal cost dynamics.

Can Alzheimer's disease also be known as Type 3 diabetes?

"Brain insulin resistance (diabetes) is very much like regular diabetes," de la Monte said. "Since the underlying problems continue to be just about the same, we believe that the development of new therapies would be applicable for all types of diabetes, including Alzheimer's disease, which we refer to as Type III diabetes."
