Can you clarify what you mean by "the same" for societies?

I could see that a lot of various net outcomes economically similar not due to biological factors, but rather a myriad of environmental ones. The Anna Karenina principle[1] means a lot if some societies get rice and Mediterranean Basins and World Banks, while others get tubers and mountains and slave-trading ships that buy people from you.

I feel like those factors would make a more significant difference, as a few thousand years isn't very long in evolution time, from what I understand.

No true at all. Of the developed industrialized western nations, not only is the US the highest by total dollars ($611b), it is also the highest by percentage of GDP (3.3% GDP).

"In fact, Guatemala has the highest rate of malnutrition in the Western Hemisphere: 50 percent of the population is stunted and, in rural Mayan villages, that figure gets as high as 80 percent."
* We compared a group of native 9-year-old Mayans and a group of 9-year-old Mayans raised in the United States. The difference was dramatic. The American Mayan children who have access to better food are, on average, six inches taller than those raised in Guatemala.*

I love the concept. Rather than just listing what's 'in' season, listing what's out (among staples, fuzzy definition of what that would include) would be valuable to.

My wife tends to give me a grocery list and includes things that - when i get to the store, are overpriced/look like crap as they're significantly out of season anywhere remotely close.
That wasn't working for me either.

Very interesting from a security perspective. So much potentially dangerous code copy-pasted and most of it is probably never updated too. I've personally found some C vulnerabilities in code that I easily found used in many projects by Googling the vulnerable line... Usually not so much to do about it too.

It's a damn shame the 3rd Ave., Subway was elevated, and they ended up tearing it down. Having the subway on one of the narrowest avenues is crazy to me, and having it be the only subway servicing the east side (which has more avenues than the west, by the way), is even crazier.
How Much Would It Cost to Power Puerto Rico with Solar Energy?

i like firefox, but this article might as well show page load times with and without uBlock Origin or uMatrix in both browsers.

it's nice that private mode is more private and faster by default though.
The opposite of diversify in this context is usually concentrate.
I observed very significant speedups on Firefox (< 57) on an older, memory-constrained Mac when using uBlock origin. Both page load times and general feel (lag when switching between tabs, etc) were improved.

On a modern Mac with plenty of RAM the difference isn't really noticeable.

Perhaps it's a language barrier, but this comment makes no sense. The low-tech robots you speak of were uniformly useless, and the people working on the initial cleanup and containment were sent on what were essentially suicide missions. Information is easy to find; just google for stories about the Chernobyl liquidators.

Regarding the radiation, I think you've fallen victim to ignorance of basic facts about the nature of radiation and the oceans. Pretty much anywhere in the Pacific, radiation from Fukushima quickly dropped far below environmental background levels [1].

1 - http://www.whoi.edu/page.do?pid=127297

Here's a good quote from the source above: "The highest levels of cesium (10 Bq/m3) attributable to Fukushima that we have measured were found 1,500 miles north of Hawaii. Swimming every day in the ocean there would still result in a dose 1,000 time smaller than the radiation we receive with a single dental x-ray."
So you think this is an actual requirement, rather than game studios just trying to maximize ROI by going after the whales using F2P?

I simply find it hard to believe game development suddenly became so much more expensive in the last few years of F2P rise. Isn’t this just about a whole industry discovering an opportunity, and accordingly a new standard of expectations of money to be made ?

Painful Truth: Successful Failure of a Biotech Startup
Yes, exactly this. Since I've started studying category theory I am finding a lot of changes in my thinking. For example, I used to struggle a lot with mental overload when trying to accomplish business goals because of the classic "so much to do don't know where to start" type of thinking that I think is common with a lot of people. It's hard to explain but I find myself becoming better able to mentally organize my thoughts and break things down into units, etc to start work on specific things even though the end goal is overwhelming. I still have a lot to learn about category theory but I think it's very beneficial.
Wait, so the most common plant life by weight isn't algae, then? What is it actually?

Something she might want to consider is entering the tech industry as QA/Tester.

Typically, the barrier of entry is lower for QA than roles such as PM. With the right opportunity, she will get a lot of experience working with tech teams and gain some insight into how to be an efficient PM. And the money can be pretty good too.

I was on a client where, over the course of 2-3 years, one of the QA testers transitioned to a BA/Scrum Master role. She constantly stepped outside of her role and helped with management.
Why do you want to improve your abstract thinking skills?

I would be surprised if there is anyway to improve these skills, g(aka IQ) is notoriously hard to improve.

But I imagine you want better abstract thinking skills for a specific reason, and it'll probably be much more effective to skip directly to the reason you want to improve these skills.
I vaguely remember that somebody from github claimed in HN comment that all objects are shared.

Puting whole github in single packfile is obviously impractical, but having whole github on some bespoke Venti/IPFS-style content addressable object store is not.
Good tip! I will check it out right now. I suspect tho, that this information will not cover all the bases. Mainly, any piece of information facebook ever shared with a third party source should be included.

The above statement has a high reach: information fb uses to then deduce something for advertisers has to be included. It doesnt work immediately, so I will have to wait analyze what they share. Its certainly good that they do.

EDIT: just looked at the docs and it is better than I thought but might not be probably enough to get the effect I want to achieve.

ITs revelatory that it contains all the chats I ever had, and would find that hard to share with anyone, yet, clearly FB has it .

You’re being sacastic, but sitting down and looking at what subject areas appear most frequently and talking about why would be useful for any language.

*A Mans Covenant Not To Defend Himselfe, Is Voyd*

A Covenant not to defend my selfe from force, by force, is alwayes voyd.
For (as I have shewed before) no man can transferre, or lay down his
Right to save himselfe from Death, Wounds, and Imprisonment, (the
avoyding whereof is the onely End of laying down any Right,)
and therefore the promise of not resisting force, in no Covenant
transferreth any right; nor is obliging. For though a man may Covenant
thus, "Unlesse I do so, or so, kill me;" he cannot Covenant thus "Unless
I do so, or so, I will not resist you, when you come to kill me." For
man by nature chooseth the lesser evill, which is danger of death in
resisting; rather than the greater, which is certain and present death
in not resisting. And this is granted to be true by all men, in
that they lead Criminals to Execution, and Prison, with armed men,
notwithstanding that such Criminals have consented to the Law, by which
they are condemned.

AFAIK there is currently no extension that would support rocker gestures.

Also mouse gestures now have the same annoying "feature" they've always had in Chrome: they don't work in "system" tabs (think about:preferences).

So you can't use mouse gesture to quickly go through opened tabs if at least one of them is the "system" one, the navigation simply dies there.
The difference between Facebook and an ISP is that ISPs are, for all intents and purposes, a natural monopoly. There is an enormous cost associated with laying cable and negotiating the rights-of-way with the thousands of affected parcels to make even a tiny local network. It makes sense to enforce net neutrality because it's impossible to switch to a different ISP in many markets, just as it's impossible to switch to a different water provider or sewage system provider.

Facebook is a social media website. It doesn't provide a basic, necessary service. It doesn't operate under the physical constraints that utilities do, and it's not impossible to compete with Facebook, as evidenced by the numerous social media services out there like Snapchat, Tumblr, Youtube, Reddit, LinkedIn, Google+, Qzone (China), and Sina Weibo (China).

I'm certainly not against regulation as a general concept. The free market does not produce the best, ethical incentives in all cases. That being said, I fail to see why regulating Facebook is even necessary, and what that would look like in practice.

People on HN seem to take as a given that Facebook having loads of personal data is somehow a bad or dangerous thing. Why? Facebook has 2 billion users. That's 25% of the human population. 2 billion people voluntarily created profiles, provided details about themselves like their age and relationship status, and uploaded photos of themselves, their friends, and their families. For those 2 billion people, the "cost" of "losing privacy" was worth it to them. Face it, nobody outside of the tiny HN bubble cares about the security of their vacation photos or cat pics, nor should they.
The pains of growing a platform
There's a growing mobile homeless or partially homeless (living in storage facilities or an RV without services) population in many of the more expensive cities; they live in the city for work, because that's where the jobs are, but can't actually afford to live there. Obviously, this isn't everyone who eats out who can't really afford it, but it's definitely some. If you don't have a fridge, you don't have a stove, and you have no way to keep or prepare fresh foods, you have to eat out more often. I've known lots of folks in this situation (I live in an RV and travel a lot and run into all sorts of people). They often do keep bread and peanut butter in their car or RV or whatever, but they have pretty limited options. It's not healthy or sustainable to eat that way. So, they end up eating out a lot.

Our cities are becoming wholly inhospitable to poor people, and food is no exception. And, someone making $12.50/hour probably can't really afford rent in a city like DC, either.
Skepticism is always warranted for new things, but also remember this is the guy who made EVs viable and cool and luxurious, as well as they guy who made reusable rockets a thing, to put it mildly. Elon Musk has a brilliant mind for solving engineering problems that others think are too daunting to even approach. "Seeing around corners" is something fairly simple, especially when you consider Tesla vehicles have myriad sensors for detecting objects/vehicles on the road, even through other vehicles. Teslas can stop when the car ahead of them stops--surely they can provide a driver with a (near) real-time view of where cars are in another lane, ahead and behind the vehicle.

Have you considered volunteering instead? Volunteering will look great on your resume and it will give you skills that you can apply in your next job. Also it will help you expand your network which might be the main reason why you're not finding the opportunities you are seeking.

Entrepreneurship can be quite difficult, and it takes a really heavy emotional toll on people. If you consider yourself a person with depressive tendencies, I would consider dealing with those first before starting a company.

Is this a concern with docs, the core Redux store API, the React-Redux API, or something else? Any suggestions for how we can improve things?
I took this course a few years back when it was on Coursera and had taken a similar course many years ago in university; I've been a developer of some kind for 20+ years. This course brought together a bunch of stuff I understood but hadn't internalized so didn't use in my day-to-day job.

If you've been programming for a few years and take this course, you're going to say "OHHH that explains <some weird thing that happened in your career>" a bunch.

I remember my time in Shenzhen back in 2007 (or in 2009 if my memory fails me) when I was transiting through the city to Singapore.

Back then, I was surprised how much even seemingly low income people were dishing out on food.

When line 9 was just opened, there was no underground connection in between it and line 4 in Shangmeilin. Food cart owners who set up shops on the sandlot in between stations, were allegedly having turnovers closing on 5k usd per day in first months after opening given how many commuters going to and from factories were passing by that place.

Food there was rather basic, but quite expensive. 30CNY for a big bowl of beef noodle soup, more than double than what you expected for street food back then, yet I have not seen a single time when there was no lineup.

One great hurdle a new platform (or an old and now obscure) is credibility. Would you bet your success on POWER or SPARC? It's been years since I used either, to the point I'm much more comfortable predicting performance on EC2 instances than on actual metal for these.

If I were trying to pull this off, I'd try to market units with failed cores deactivated at lower price points and help a workstation maker to the market with low priced units. If a high end fully functional chip performs like a Xeon E7, maybe they could have a couple units priced at Core i3 prices with similar performance. The idea would put these machines in the hands of key developers so they would help legitimize the platform.
I'm not sure I could understanding the reasoning behind that. Does it have to do with dependency versions or the assumption npm might not be available or what?

This is not in any way realistic. Autopilot failed to notice a semi trailer at a 90 degree angle barely over a year ago. Real world highway conditions have a ton of edge cases, inclement weather, etc etc that automation is simply not ready for. Eventually, we will be there, Tesla is doing great work, but full automation isn't happening anytime soon and until that point, the feedback of those who are actually doing the job is extremely valuable if Tesla wants to make a competitive product. Fanboy screeching about how Tesla can do no wrong is not helpful.

There were/are a few factors. NPM availability is definitely one - before caching, and without the overhead of running your own npm replica. It also didn't used to have things like lock files. Vendoring gives you a deterministic build and removes availability concerns. In that aspect, it's not the worst thing ever, mostly just leads to noisy diffs (and maybe c extension issues if your team works on a variety of OSs?)
