The sad thing is that the Windows 7 start menu wasn't any better. This is not a regression, just some sort of following the tradition.

I use an old, discontinued app called Executor that I configure manually. It's not a whole lot better in terms of matching, but, because it can be configured, it is much better in terms of getting it to do what I want. It definitely can't track your packages, though.

Looking at BTC stats it seems that we're talking about an order of magnitude of 300k transactions per day with a total volume of roughly 2 billion USD per day.

Mastercard transacts roughly 200m transactions per day with a total volume of roughly 10 billion USD per day; so 600 times more deals than bitcoin, but with a lot of quite small transactions.

USA fedwire has about 400k transactions per day (because in USA wire transfers aren't much used by ordinary people) with a total volume of roughly 2 trillion USD per day, so 1000 times more than bitcoin in terms of worth.

EU retail payment systems ("wire transfers" in US terms but for consumers, not the very large settlements) have about 14 million transactions per day with a total volume of 100 billion, so something like 50 times more than bitcoin in both number and volume.

So while Bitcoin is a serious factor, it still comprises a small (<0.1%) amount of the global transaction numbers and amounts; and we'd need at least a thousandfold growth in volume if bitcoin is to replace our current infrastructure.
It could it theory but even if it does it doesn't matter. Britain is primarily a services economy and most free trade agreements don't cover services to anywhere near the extent that the EU does. A free trade agreement in goods doesn't really do the UK economy much good since the UK doesn't produce that many.
When? Then.

Economics is really a study of organisms. Biologists often make the mistake of trying to define adaptiveness, but there probably is no such thing. In a universe of rock and scissors, it's clear which organism is best, but when paper comes along, suddenly they're equal.

Attempts at formalism come with the caveat that equilibrium strategies, (strategies such that, if all organisms use them, no organism can improve) generally require the zero cost generation of random numbers.

What does this mean for our function which assigns economic value to programs? Non-trivial (not zero everywhere) solutions are not guaranteed to exist, and indeed the case for their existence doesn't look hopeful.
We're not spending country-scale amounts of power or resources to mine gold, that's a comparably small industry. That is the point, it's so out of proportion to allocate so much resources to simply validating transactions.
Scrivener isn't a word processor or editor as much as it is a project management tool for writing. The point is that you just focus on your writing as you use the tool and then compile it to whatever format you want, including plain text and MultiMarkdown. While Scrivener does support some level of formatting in the editor, that's mostly for convenience as you work with it, as far as I can tell. The final format of the output of the project occurs when you compile it.

I hope that helps.
It's worth noting that we are still in that period and we've only just started to see the economic slow down effects. Unemployment will lag behind the economic slow down. The full effects of Brexit won't be know properly for a while.

Good question! It was merged quite close to the release, so it's hard to guess if it landed in beta already. So, let's have a look at [1]! And yep, it's in the beta branch.

This means it's in 1.23, which'll be released in 6 weeks.

As long as traffic can get through it should not make transactions impossible. However, it may affect the timing. People who pay extra to watch cable TV channels will have priority, and everything else will flow slower. Perhaps a company like Coinbase will set up a for-fee "fast lane" for transactions to prevent this from affecting investors.

If you are watching bitcointicker.co and trying to trade by the minute then Coinbase may not track prices at the same rate of change in the first place. That would be a persuasive reason to use a private wallet such as running a full node. There would not be any kind of "fast lane" for those kind of transactions which are timed with the block update rate.

Ultimately, Bitcoin is always safer if the investor takes a much longer view.

So in that case, say over a number of days or weeks, there would be no observable effect.
...why though?

Firstly it's not the executive's money to actually hold onto.

Secondly they have sooooooo many options where their own incompetence/mistakes will not be a factor in their money literally disappearing into nothingness. There's a reason why bank deposit insurance exists.

If you think you can hold onto the money cheaply, by all means start this business and get them as a client. But you'll probably want insurance, you'll likely need some security measures, etc etc. Things start costing money.

Not to mention the coordination costs for them of "yet another holder of assets". What if they want to sell a chunk of it? They need to get 60% of execs in a room every time?

These people hold money for a living. I understand that they might not be aware of the latest and greatest technical stuff... but this is their job and they've likely thought of a lot of details here.

There's also value in a human being the last step in the security mechanism. No matter what happens, a court order/explanation of force majeure/etc means that the money is never really truly lost.
That's by far the best solution.
If one needs speed one does everything it takes. That said, I read the code of the example. It's short and even if I don't know Rust I've been paid to write C in the 90s. They look similar enough.

I see we're back to stuff like

let ptr = path.as_ptr();

let c = unsafe { *ptr.offset(i) };

if c == SEP {
return &path[(i + 1) as usize..end];
};

It's as low level as it can get. I remember that I wrote a small web app in C in 1994 but I wrote the next one in Perl and never looked back. It was some hundreds lines, countless core dumps and many hours vs much less code and pain and time.

Again, Ruby and Python are all about connecting those small pieces of C code that implement their builtin and library methods / functions. Writing them in C or Rust makes no difference. I personally won't write code in those kind of languages again unless I find myself in a scenario where CPU time is worth more than my time. Maybe we'll be back to that with functions in the cloud billed by the millisecond. Programming is going to be a pain again. At least modern languages like Rust don't crash like C and have a better concurrency story. Meanwhile I'll keep using Ruby and Python with C or Rust extensions from GitHub written by somebody else (a big thank you!), and Elixir where concurrency matters.
For passive heating, anything puts out exactly as much heat as it consumes electricity; there's no way around thermodynamics to gain or lose power there.

Yes, there can be heat pump systems with e.g. underground connections, and pumping heat can be more effective than generating heat; but for pure heating, generating heat, the simplest resistor heater is just as 100% efficient as any complex electronic device, all the electricity spent results in just as much heat.
I finally switched to LineageOS yesterday after hearing this news and it's working fine. It feels great to have a Google-free phone, but I'm shocked by how many Android apps require Google's proprietary services to function these days.
There are few things come to mind:

1. Is it necessary to setup a company and accounting procedures before you even make your first sale?

2. I think this is a great game, however the failure to launch is rooted on marketing: not enough marketing research, tweeting and emailing publishers are not enough. Who is your ideal customer? Where do they spend their time at? What features distinguish you from other competitors?

You can PM me for pro bono advice regarding digital marketing, it is far from too late.
> The major JS frameworks look like languages onto themselves (...) it is quite possible to turn JS into something very unrecognizable.

That doesn't mean anything. With enough determination, anything can be turned into “something very unrecognizable”. Heck, sometimes the results are relatively pleasant even: http://libcello.org/ . But, if a language doesn't allow you to define basic abstractions like complex numbers (not to mention slightly more elaborate ones, like queues that are indistinguishable from one another if they contain the same elements in the same order), then that obviously reflects very poorly on its abstraction facilities.

> C++ templates allow for almost anything. I have seen incredibly strange things done to the language with templates.

What you can't do in C++, however, is make your abstractions not leak. Every template library is one template specialization away from being broken. This is unlike languages that enforce their abstractions by more robust means, like parametricity and macro hygiene.

But that doesn't contradict your parent poster's wish in any way. Read your quote again carefully. He says he did NOT seek professional help about this. (Only about other issues, and seems he was never given good advice).

He didn't seek professional advice about his central life-altering pain because he thought it would be as poor as the help he'd had for other things (by what sound like crappy doctors). He was probably wrong about that.

People under enough emotional strain and pain sufficient to drive them to suicide are rarely thinking clearly when considering how to deal with that pain alone, no matter how intelligent and logical and reasonable they might otherwise be. Such a huge mental burden clouds your judgement. It's hard to think clearly about how to climb out of the swamp when you feel yourself drowning in it.
If you happen to be coming from C, keep in mind that integers in Rust don't coerce into anything else like they do in C; e.g. adding an 8-bit integer to a 32-bit integer (without an explicit cast) is a type error, `if 0` does not work, arithmetic ops on references never do pointer arithmetic, etc.
Microsoft had a monopoly. Google does not.
I was kind of confused why many big tech companies are for net neutrality. As someone who doesn't trust big tech companies, it made me doubtful.

But I guess it makes sense; big tech companies have a lot of power right now because of net neutrality and they don't want it to fall into the hands of ISPs...

Big internet companies that currently have direct guaranteed access to users don't want to be forced to make deals with middlemen who work for ISPs.

Getting rid of net neutrality will allow ISPs to claim a piece of the pie. They will be able to cut into the profit margins of the most profitable companies while allowing the least profitable ones to get a discount.

Getting rid of net neutrality would be similar to how it works in commercial real estate; if your business isn't doing well, you can make a deal with your landlord to get a discount on your rent... The rent prices are inconsistent. But if the landlord always sees a long queue of customers outside your shop, they may be tempted to increase your rent.

The main concern I have with removing net neutrality is what would happen to peer-to-peer services... Maybe some ISPs will attempt to block them.

As far as I know, every consumer ISP everywhere oversells their capacity, counting on people not using it at max capacity 24x7. That implies sometimes there will be moments of congestion in the uplinks.

It's not appropriate to look at the number of people working in the finance industry, as the vast, vast majority of finance industry is not employed in transactions; almost all the headcount goes to handle lending, credit, risks and investments. A few percent seems appropriate from what I recall in the banks I've seen, so <100k people maybe for all the payments in US.
Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Conference_on_Weights_..., the Watt and the Joule were formalized at the sa,e conference (in 1948).

Of course, that doesn’t rule out that your claim is true, but it does make me wonder whether it does.

I would guess kWh is used because it makes it easier for customers to verify that they aren’t scammed, given that appliances are tagged with Watts. I guess appliances are tagged with Watts and not Joule/s because it is easier to use a single unit than two.
That’s impressively small. I had a rubidium frequency standard which was several orders of magnitude larger I.e medium sized hardback book. This used a cesium beam approach. Haven’t seen one of them less than a 2U rack before.

How do you get a publisher?
Yes, but the capacity of those stations is already used (for managing daily fluctuations) and there's not that much opportunity to build more, they require very specific conditions, are costly, and have a big effect on the environment.

As solar and wind grows, we will use more pumped hydro, but there won't be / can't be e.g. a tripling of it.
Yes but I also have to necessarily buy into the Apple ecosystem and pay a lot of money compared to Android, which I can just root and remove all this crap more easily than on Apple devices.

I also don't really trust Apple to keep my data secure, I'm sure they have plenty of security measures, but I feel safer putting my data on my own servers via Nextcloud and stuff.
China blocked Skype and why nobody cares
> Considering pointer arithmetic is unsafe

I just wanted to point out that this is largely a misconception. Rust, or the Rust creators, do not consider pointer arithmetic to be fundamentally `unsafe`, and the only reason `.offset()` is `unsafe` to begin with is due to optimization concerns[0]. `.wrapping_offset()` exists and is marked safe, despite achieving the exactly same thing as `.offset()` for the majority of scenarios[1], and more-over you can cast any pointer to an integer using only safe code, at which point you can perform all of your arithmetic on the integer and then cast it back also using only safe code[2]. The bottom line is that things like pointer arithmetic are generally not considered unsafe because the operation has defined semantics for what happens. It is only the point where you attempt to use the value, the dereference, that is `unsafe`, as that may blow-up if the value is an invalid memory location.

I feel like relying on a big splash release is an intuitive, obvious, and wrong approach. It's like a kind of waterfall methodology, where we should be doing iterative: Release something early to a limited audience, gauge reactions, fix the obvious mistakes and implement the feedback from players. Then keep doing that. If you can't even get a small audience (like a small gamer forum) to play, then you're already in trouble and should revise your idea. Once the game starts to look like something with mass appeal, start planning a real release. If you want a splashy go-live at this point then change the name of the game and do it as a clean new release, but this time you are releasing something that has been market tested and proven to have appeal.

Also, and this is encapsulated in the ideas above, don't freaking rely on family, friends, or acquaintances, to tell you what they think of the game. Not even other devs. Nobody wants to be the asshole that shoots down someone's dream. Again, if you can't even get actual players to try your game then you have big problems that you need to work on.
Or, alternatively, having more than two parties is also an option. Because then you have a real choice. I have that choice. If I don't like the currently ruling party I can vote for any of the numerous parties that I feel represent me better. And unlike a 2-party-system people actually do that in mass to protest what the government is doing.
I like the Vedic representation of primordial debts wonderfully elucidated in David Graeber’s Debt: 5000 years of history. The purpose of life is to repay three debts -

1) Repay the ancestral debt by becoming one.
2) Repay the teacher/sage debt by becoming a learned one.
3) Repay the societal debt by doing good to others.

(Mr. Graeber obviously does a much better job of summarizing them, but you get the general idea)

I was toying with this idea in the past, where cells would support, in addition to primitives(numbers, strings, whatever) and functions, a new type which would be identified by a reverse domain name notation path/key (e.g org.hr.employees.cnt), and optionally a comma separated (key-value) pairs as arguments.

Whenever a value for such a unique (key, arguments) cell would be required, the application would collect all such that need updates -- or, you could click a button to update them all --, create a message that would contain all paths and arguments, and auth info (each user would require to authenticate with some centralized system, so that the auth key would be used for that RPC, and that the service could check for authentication and authorization ), call out to some service and get values for each of those cells (value could depend on the authenticated user, or could even be denied depending on privileges ).

Furthermore, the application would cache each such cell value (auth key, resource path, arguments digest, value) and it would periodically update them, or do so on demand (so that you can use it say on a plane, and refresh them when you land). That’s the gist of it, but there’s more to it and there are some optimization opportunities I am ignoring here, but it could work.

Then again, for all I know, there are already such services, or apps that kind of do this sort of thing.

It's a much more efficient way to deal with outrage, currently employed by EA.
