Same. First love and first heartbreak. She took awhile to get over. I ended up sabotaging quite a few opportunities with women I had during my freshman year of college because I still wasn't really over her.
This depends on a country, I've seen some where it's municipal bus, that is overcrowded, and mini-bus is a more "premium" service. But anyway, do you think you should force them to pay twice the price by removing the overcrowding? It's just a revealed preference, like with airplanes, people prefer price to comfort. Modern startup in this area can experiment with a different price for standing/sitting.

If this jitneys are really worse, there is no need to forbid them, municipal buses will outcompete jitneys.
Actual abusive content or just abusive content Reddit staff dislike?

Some bullying subs have been rightly banned but major ones like /r/cringe /r/srs and /r/cringeanarchy remain.

There's no such thing as "neutral". This modern demand that there are two or more equally valid positions in every debate is asinine.

When facts become politicized there's no hope of neutrality if you want to remove lies.
What I don't understand about this new trend of companies trying to make their content "Advertiser friendly" is that those same advertisers seem to be fine advertising during events like the Vegas Shooting.
I'm just hoping this trend of making your websites rated G dies off sooner rather than later.

Works well this way with Rust too.
I wish the KDE team would prioritize stability over functionalities.

A few months ago I tried Fedora KDE, KDE Neon and KaOS. I encountered showstopping bugs in the first 10 minutes of trying them (just customizing the taskbar gave me a black screen on one of them).

I think I'd have to go back to Windows 95 or 98 era to find such a poor user experience.
How exactly does one put a warning on "Posting here may cause you to get death threats, brigaded, doxxed, etc..."? I think Reddit's problems are that their most fervent users are their biggest problems. They actively encourage trolls. Whatever was good about Reddit needs a better site to go to.
Pokemon Go. It did take the world by storm but promptly died due to incompetence from Niantic. One can only hope that they didn't set enthusiasm for AR games too far back.
In a free country you can sell a pair of sneakers to someone with different set of political beliefs if you want to. Thats what you do in a civil society.
What is the purpose of a search engine? To present answers, or to preset pages that mention a specific subject? It's hard give correct answers; sometimes there isn't one. I think it's better to point to pages (the classical search engine philosophy). But that requires 1) knowledge about how to search, and 2) critical analysis of pages you visit.
There’s absolutely nothing new about that. On major topics there were public witch hunts and blacklists, ex McCarthyism.

This guy didn’t engage in debate though, he posted a memo that really doesn’t open a door to dialogue. And as someone who runs an organization, the workplace is not the place for an open debate on gender and diversity. That’s only appropriate for a closed door session.

His decision to quickly go on to make a round of videos with Alt-right activists and anti-feminists spoke volumes in my opionion. He didn’t try to engage with people with alternate views, he engaged with people that hold even more extreme views.
I've seen worse on other political subreddits which are given a free pass

Is the Donald even allowed on /r/all anymore?
I don't think this is true. Also any solution that involves humans just "Trying harder" is doomed to failure. History has demonstrated that over and over again.

The technologies that win are the ones that account for that.
Asking "what about left-wing subreddits" is whataboutism. Nobody is claiming bannable content shouldn't be banned because it's left-wing (except GP's implication).
Very simple script but quite useful when cleaning up a larger codebase.

Wrote it to have a easy way to find forgotten TODO:s and see who's authored them.
I love E-Ink display. Fell in love with it when I bought my first Kindle. I could read all day and my eyes won't be tired at all.

Since then I had been waiting for E-Ink based laptop for work. It doesn't need to play videos or even display color. As a backend developer, I can live with grey scale display. It doesn't need high refresh rates either.

But now almost 10 years later, it doesn't look like this will ever happen.
They DID show a monster of a pickup truck at the unveiling as well. It's almost like a /second/ roadster but aimed at the millionaire truck lover. Of course, they aren't taking reservations for that because someone probably convinced Musk the number of rich truck lovers who also would love electric is small enough that it's not yet worth spending too much energy on the idea.
Look at the road, he had already done that jaunt a few times before this video was shot. The road is full of skid marks from the wheels slipping before being caught by the traction control.

This car is absolutely traction limited. It should be able to post even better times with racing slicks.
Bad meme? Sure. But the advertising thing isn't really relevant IMO.

reddit is smart to rid themselves of subreddits where the top front page posts are often threats or even just fantasies of raping people, even if advertisers aren't part of the equation.

The "good guys" can make a new subreddit but do it right this time.
And that’s a ridiculous standard because there is no such thing as 100% when talking about knowledge. Humans and experts wouldn’t agree 100% of the time so it’s impossible for computers to get there.

The limit on ridiculous things people will somehow make into a "web service" knows no bounds.
> Reddit also has a business incentive to clean up its act: It needs to appeal to marketers—and live up to its investor’s expectations. In July, Reddit raised $200 million at a $1.8 billion valuation.

I'm sure given the scale of the userbase the property is worth something substantial, but $1.8 billion for a 10-year old company that, AFAIK, has never turned a profit is nuts.

Either 1) investors saw something in the revenue growth numbers that painted a rosier picture about the future, 2) the entire valuation is illegitimate, or 3) the tech world is really that bubbly right now.
I'll be amazed, amazzzzed, if that car, stock, can create enough down force to keep itself on the road with stock tires, I don't care how good your TC is. Look at the size of the wing on the new Zr1 https://youtu.be/O_adY_b-aLQ?t=3m14s

Trucking companies own and operate trucks, Mercedes builds and sells them.
A human is holding the camera and at the beginning of the video has a specific cadence and wobble. The cadence and wobble speeds up.

Furthermore, the human's reaction time to keep the car somewhat centered in the frame is unlikely.
Or maybe he's an example of incompetence; creating national and international gaffs literally every day. Refusing to normalize his behavior isn't a devious agenda when it's that behavior that has paralyzed the government such that there isn't anything else to report on.
We still need to remember that Google bills itself as a company open to new and challenging ideas. Leadership matters and even if the decision to fire was based purely on publicity and work environment concerns, Google showed it cares more about a certain ideology and keeping its employees happy in their ideology than actually having debate.
They’d damned themselves permanently for a lot of us.
It's hard because people will always be mad when their stuff gets taken down and it's hard to tell where the line is. A good example on reddit is that r/the_Donald is often very racist, islamophobic, and misogynistic (and it's not a small portion, often the top comment on a post will be something that is islamophobic) but they don't see themselves as that way. I don't think they should ban that sub but even being impartial politically it's not desirable for most advertising
I'm curious as to why you choose to believe that their was a conspiracy to release a sped up video rather than the fact that the car really is just that quick. Cognitive dissonance? Shorting Tesla stock?

It's not like you're mentally deficient or anything so there has to be a logical reason in your mind as to why you ended up thinking this. I would be very keen to know what that is.
panics are like asserts. They're here to make sure the program is being used correctly. There is no handling of them, if it's not used correctly you crash.

Of course you do not want to use panic in sensitive code. The best example is looking at how panic() is used in crypto/tls (which has a lot of sensitive code! You really don't want a client to be able to crash a server): https://gist.github.com/mimoo/93c33d88222c87fb384b4ca3b04fb5...

And “Evolving Our Rust With Milksnake”:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15697570

Both from Armin Ronacher at Sentry. About Milksnake:

Milksnake helps you compile and ship shared libraries that do not link against libpython either directly or indirectly. This means it generates a very specific type of Python wheel. Since the extension modules do not link against libpython they are completely Python version or implementation independent. The same wheel works for Python 2.7, 3.6 or PyPy. As such if you use milksnake you only need to build one wheel per platform and CPU architecture.

So why create a feature that pretends such a thing is possible, and promote it as heavily as Google does?

In many ways, "I'm feeling lucky" was a great middle ground - by clicking it you're implictly saying "I know this might not actually be what I'm looking for, but I'm willing to compromise". Google has taken that compromise and stuck it at the top of the search results page.
Why would r/The_Donald be neutral? It's literally called "The_Donald". It's like expecting r/hillaryclinton to be neutral. r/politics is for all political discussion, but it's just a left-wing echo chamber where ideological conformity and cognitive dissonance are at their peak.

This is coming from a 2x Obama voter and lifelong liberal btw.
I was hoping this would be "famous artists" in the more traditional sense (Michaelangelo, Ed Hopper, etc), but it's the "celeb side hustles" of Keanu Reeves, Beyonce, etc instead.

If there was someone I knew who I could ask a question, with a 97% chance they were correct, I'd consider them to be a phenomenon, and an extremely valuable resource. For some definition of correct, I'd be happy to be 60% accurate.
Thank you!

Like I said, I am not turning my back on it. I have noticed that C++'s evolution has been gaining momentum over last ten years. I have even read Bjarne's book on the design and evolution of C++ - it was fascinating, and I think it is worth reading even to people who never have used C++.

The thing is that from all I have heard and read I get the impression that learning C++ - really learning it, not just C-with-classes - is a long-term commitment. That is why, as I said, I am keeping a safe distance between me and C++. ;-)

When the day comes, I will not be entirely unprepared.
Yes, on the UK one. However, there are many versions around the world. Also, the presenters involved have all left, and are now on the Grand Tour. My point was about halo cars in general, not Telsa's experience in general.

The team at the Grand Tour are going to have to get used electric cars, since I expect all the fastest cars will be electric from this point. If they can't get a loaner car, they'll borrow or buy one, they've done that before.

I noted it - thanks for the background info on the company! I also assume that either they are not able to maintain the software themselves, or they have lost the source code, but it might also be that setting up the toolchain to compile such an old piece of software is more effort than just patching the binary.
$100k signup fee + 1.2% of AuM per year. And this is for assets you own, not even a fund.

It's infinitely better than directly investing in a hedge fund charging you 2-20, but it still seems rather expensive in the grand scheme of things.
Most super cars have very little safety in mind. At $200k, a small percentage of people will be driving one. It's all about specs at this point, throw everything else out other than meeting the road legal requirements.
Yeah, it really doesn't make sense. Reddit was stagnant for a decade, never made money, now they are taking on $200 million and scaling up?

Completely unjustified, people just want something to throw money at.
Except they didn't. Title is misleading if not a straight up lie.
TLDR: We're using excess energy from renewable sources to generate an extra revenue stream by mining bitcoin just like everyone else.
Advertising is an endorsement of content. You have literally paid money to be associated with the people consuming a specific kind of content. Just because there's a middle man doesn't change that. If you want a platform for your incendiary content you're welcome to pay for it yourself; don't expect companies to foot the bill for you.
The OP is right that 8 sec 1/4 is extremely impressive, but he is wrong that there are few production cars that can run 8s. No production car runs anything close.

The fastest 1/4 mile production cars are supercars such as the Veyron and 918, which are at or just under a 10seconds.

Remember, an increase from 20->18 seconds is roughly a 10% increase in acceleration; 10->8 is roughly 20% increase over an already ludicrously fast million-dollar supercar.

It's frankly ridiculously fast.
Words like ffenestr and ysgol from Cymraeg show the adoption of Latin that you'd recognise in French (fenetre, ecole). Suggesting these words were already around in Old English from Latin.

It can be hard to tell the history though, eg sovereign came from French (rein) but got Latinised (regnare) in spelling reform.

One interesting thing for me was finding English loanwords in Cymraeg (former Welsh language) that are no longer used in English. I'll bet there are some French loanwords in English that aren't in French any more?

There are words adopted twice too, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_words_of_Fre... has lots of examples. Giving us chief and chef in English with different meanings but based on a single French word (I gather) adopted at different times.
But they do! I have a sweet tooth and some of their stuff is just too sweet for me. It really depends on what part of the country they are in, but Pennsylvania Amish are known for their pies. One of the most famous types, Shoofly Pie, is basically sugar flavored sugar.

Tesla claims that the Model 3 can only fit ~80 Kwh with the current "improved" technology. This is more than double that in an even smaller vehicle!

I wonder what the performance impact of running MySQL on ZFS would be?
True. GTRs are not the best for drag racing. I think the Alpha 12 (~1200 HP) GTRs are actually dipping into the 8's, but I was thinking more along the lines of a Mustang, which is one of the most common cars used for drag racing and is usually much lighter.

Many cars in the 1200 HP range are much faster, such as the "Red Demon" DSM which is somewhere in the 7 second range.
There is also issue of highway funds. Tax on fuel goes into roads maintanence. There is no current mechanism in US to tax electric vehicles. I wonder if Tesla culculated non-yet-existing taxes into operational casts.
Rust's runtime is basically the same weight as C, that is, crt: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/libstd/rt....

That's actually a good point in the sense that when ICQ was popular most people didn't have a digital camera in their pocket with instant upload capability so sending a dick pic would have been way more trouble.

Maybe the fact that pretty much everyone has a digital camera in their pocket now means the world has changed into a world where ICQ as the OP described it just can't exist anymore
Just to clarify, between a third and a half use GitLab in some capacity. But to answer your question, I see a lot of TFS these days. Easily 90% of the MS stack firms, and even some with more diverse stacks. And increasingly with the VS git for Windows plugin as the VCS. Those are probably around 50% of my clients.

SVN and Mercurial have a noticeable presence, say around 30% of my clients, but that number seems to be declining. I mostly see this with smaller firms with a single large, mature, legacy product that's in the cash cow stage. They're barely investing in new features, so why bother to upgrade their internal systems?

A really shocking number of firms don't have any VCS whatsoever (around 15%) or individual teams decide on their own solutions (around 10%) or individual teams may supplement the firm wide VCS for production with their own dev solutions (around 15%, which overlaps with all the other categories). A lot of those teams seem to use GitHub private repos or GitLab, though frequently I see institutional constraints prevent them from adopting a self-hosted solution (a company too dumb to set up VCS isn't likely to spring for a server--these are the same people that have dev and prod but no test servers). I frankly don't know how the firms without a VCS function. They tend to be my most challenging clients, so the answer is probably not well.

And then a really large number of firms have legacy homegrown solutions. Probably like 20%. These tend to be larger companies with an in-house tech department supporting a really unremarkable product that's been in use for 20+ years, like an eCommerce solution for a mid-sized retailer or an inventory system for a manufacturer. I think it's probably a much larger segment than shows up in a lot of stats because they tend to be... weird. They feel less like development teams and more like overgrown IT departments.

Notice that these numbers don't add up to 100. That's because there's lots of overlap, especially at larger firms that have grown by acquisition, where individual entities can operate nearly independently. Really, there's a huge selection bias here too. My clients tend to be either very well organized MS shops or nightmarishly anarchic hodgepodges. That's driven by client size and by my firm's market position and by my own sales abilities. I do better with MS shops because that's the stack I use and it makes it easier for me to speak their language, as it were. My firm targets mid-sized companies over very large companies or very small ones.

So take what I say with a grain of salt.
Excellent point. Sadly this will likely not happen. Google and Facebook are gradually imposing a highly censored world view.

We can’t effectively reason about social media censorship by analogizing it to meatspace.

Just as virality mechanisms amplify “good” content, they also change the equilibrium state of whose ideas can spread.

Censorship programs work like a squirt of insecticide into a beehive, they kill off some functional parts of the hive organism and eventually lead to the destruction of all of the bees inside.

Similarly, censoring “fake news” or “abusive content” poisons the environment for ideas in a similar way. Ideas are not evaluated objectively. We each react to them emotionally and experience them via the social meaning we associate with them. Prejudices are not rational and are countered by ample evidence, yet there is much prejudice and much religious faith... such beliefs carry a meaning payload enjoyed by their host.

The fear suffered by social media firms (like reddit) is that someone will screenshot a piece of offensive speech alongside an ad paid for by an advertiser, and the advertiser will worry that his/her brand is being associated with that speech.

This is why Colin Kaepernick doesn’t have a job.

Social media firms are thus following in the path of other media firms and are (like The NY Times) putting ad revenue ahead of the first amendment. This isn’t unexpected, these firms are the “tories” of our day.

The government can't just "shut down" whatever it wants in a society like the US with (relatively) strong rule of law.
Yes.

Or, Twitter banning people because they didn't do anything, but someone who claimed to like them did things?

And as always... the "good" people engage in harassment, and they don't do anything. The "bad" people don't harass, and get banned.
Looks like that one was flagged to death.
Rust has a big standard library that is linked by default. Using it with no runtime is pretty rough going and is usually done only by people targeting bare metal microcontrollers or OS kernels, because it loses a lot of the power normally available in the language.
Yeah, and Tesla has talked about this extensively in the past. It would be pretty surprising if they switch to using this area for battery, but it is possible.
> too much commercial exploitation

Could you elaborate here? I'm interested.

I've mostly been saying "Rust has over 100 companies using it in production right now, but like, that's still 100 companies. It's good for where we're at, but it's not a massive number."
Need to get yourself a bigger reality catcher on your grill.
>once you start banning hate speech it's a slippery slope

Or maybe the slope ends with nazis. Just a thought. 4chan will always exist as the bastion for your juvenile ideas of "free speech" (and all of the baggage that comes with it).
