My parents are divorced and both moved to separate cities away from the coast when they retired (Mom went to Illinois, Dad's in the Cascade Mountains). The move hasn't been terribly good or bad for either of them (although my dad is probably happier in hill country).
The macOS team was dissolved and absorbed by the iOS team.

It showed when I submitted a feature suggestion for a macOS app and the Apple employee apparently only skimmed the submission, didn’t check the category, and closed it because the feature exists in the iOS app. I resubmitted the feature suggestion and made sure to additionally mention in the description text this is meant for macOS (as the submission category states) so they don’t close it again.

gerrymandering actually only comes into play within the house. if the vote for the house was done by a purely popular basis without regards to districting and state boundaries, the republicans would still control the house. However, their majority would be far slimmer[1].

overall these comparisons are complicated as you often have situations where candidates from the same party compete against each other, or face no challenger

Is this a rhetorical question?

Yes I'm "forced to upgrade".

1. They keep popping up those notifications and block my workflow until I give in and upgrade to the latest iOS version.

2. My phone is virtually unusable right now. Like I said, all apps take about 10 seconds to "launch", during which all I see is a white screen. And in many cases it just crashes after the ten seconds. I have to reboot the app to even get it to launch after the ten seconds of loading. I think this counts as being "forced to upgrade" since I have no option to downgrade the OS and my phone is unusable.
Seconding this. Channels was actually shockingly easy to implement, maintain, and expand, even at a small startup with a fairly small and relatively inexperienced team.
It depends on your definition of merit. Is it based on ability to acquire the skills to perform top-drawer work, or based on something else, like the desirability of the candidate based on their family or business connections or other factors that make them more marketable, even if their abilities are only average?

Most Americans think "meritocracy" refers to the former. The reality is that it nearly always refers to the latter.
hmm, actually, i just sort of assumed it would fix the bitrot issue! that would be bad if it didn't...
While this may be the case for the poet and many like him, it isn't true for all writers. Not having something to say can be a good starting point and shouldn't discourage those who want to practice and improve their writing.
If we are talking about the community of users, the experiences of Ada programmers are likely of no little help to someone working with Haskell. Ada is an imperative language with explicit declarations and mutation everywhere. Its mechanims to help out with safety basically have to do with managing side effects.

I don’t know if there are rules against that. I think it’s more an unspoken rule that may have consequences if violated, although I’m fairly certain that’s illegal. The impetus is more on us to be open with each other about salary. It’s only in the company’s best interest for us not to do so.

On the one hand, you are right.

On the other hand, it is still troubling.

Also, I get the impression that the supreme court is tired of basically having to make policy by invalidating unconstitutional laws.

If there were serious consequences for politicians and members of parliament for creating unconstitutional laws, maybe they would think twice before doing that. But of course, the people who would have to put such sanctions in place are the very people who would be affected by them, so that is not going to happen. :(
A voltage controlled varactor can be made from 2 non-complimentary mosfets with a common body bias. The differential amplifier can be done with as little as 3 additional fets, but probably more on the order or 7-10 for performance reasons. So you're looking at programmable on chip integrators for around 10 mosfets a piece. Of course, you'd use a technology size larger than what is used for digital logic because the analog toolchain would be more sensitive to problems like channel noise, gate tunneling, etc. You would not want to use a differentiator because they tend to amplify noise in an unstable and uncontrollable fashion and are not required for functional completeness (the analog equivalent of Turing completeness).

Edit: IQ analog processing is extremely common in the high performance RF field but tends to be static and not reprogrammable. FPAA's exist on market but are extremely expensive for what you get. The general purpose analog computer was initially developed by Shannon (yes that Shannon) back in the 40s.
Why wouldn’t those same people running for their lives store their money in a numbered bank account? If they need to hide from their own government they could use banks of one of the major players: US, EU, China, Russia. Whomever is the least friendly with your oppressor.

Perhaps they are using Getting things done methodology. Have a look at it. It makes you more relaxed & productive.
My recommendation depends on what you'd like to do with it/what problems you are trying to solve. Huge field and all. Whatcha looking for?

One resource I've started recommending to people is this little book http://bayes.cs.ucla.edu/PRIMER/ It's not going to teach you a lot of the practical tools, but there's a weird feature of statistics that the answers to most questions aren't just functions of the data. They're functions of how the data was gathered and what assumptions are fair to make too.

So I've started to point people to this first, and only after that to what's usually stats 1. Once you finish that little book, any intro to mathematical statistics should suffice, but is probably overkill on the practical side. Hence my original question.
I also noticed that Babel's transpiled ES6 classes suffer from abstraction leaks quite a lot. This is especially bad if you have two classes in the same class hierarchy, where one class resides in a babelified module, and another one in a native module.

If trolling truly starts to become a threat, there is legal recourse. It's just as illegal to threaten someone with murder on the internet as it is on a street corner. As for sending pornographic images, that's already against the Twitter terms of service, so all one would need to do is report the troll for spreading porn, then wait for Twitter to remove them from the platform. There's no need for a government account to block people.
For the character to change a large percentage of landowners need to decide to meet the demand by building new housing or increasing density. Why is it reasonable for possibly a minority of landowners to limit a large percentage of other landowners from changing the use of their land to meet demand? Especially if a voting majority desire the change in density?
I honestly am about ready to go back to a 2009-era MacBook Pro or Mac Pro tower, shove 10.9 on it and tell my clients that I've quit iOS as a platform. It's beyond not worth it at this point. I refuse to watch my computers and phones get shittier and shittier, and with the phones, a downgrade isn't even possible.

Apple, you have gone from one of my favourite companies in the world, to one of my most hated. I will never buy a new, non-upgradable, RAM-soldered-to-the-board, overpriced, underpowered, piece of shit computer from you again. And you can take my word on that.
I'm confused by this article.

I have understood that epigenetics refers to heritable changes in gene function without changes in the genome. Change in gene expression even if it last the rest of the life of an individual not epigenetic change. But even university press release says otherwise.

> So, to start with, shut down the rules against discussing salaries or university costs with coworkers and other students, respectively.

No, this will expose evidences of institutional and systemic racism and question people about the country name. Should it be United State or Segregated State?
True, if we go specifically searching for the answer to the second question, we may not find much interesting, but when we know more about the first question we can gain some insights about the second one.

So if by not interesting you mean `this door is closed now, revisit later` i completely agree with you!

> I don't understand why people feel they have a right to move to a particular place and live there at a particular price.

I don't understand why people feel they should have the right to decide what their neighbors do with their property (as long as they're not opening up a waste treatment facility or something). But that's beside the point.

There are two main reasons why "just move" isn't easily actionable advice: jobs and family.

The reason expensive areas are expensive is because they have desirable jobs. (One) reason cheap areas are cheap is because they don't have as many desirable jobs. Those of us working in tech in the Bay Area accept that we earn high salaries in part because the rent is so high. So we grumble but we can make ends meet and life is mostly good.

For those who aren't so lucky to be working in hot industries with good pay, support of family and friends matters much more. Single-mom has grandma looking after the kid so she can work; if she moves to Des Moines or wherever the rent is lower, she loses that free childcare she'd been getting. Since most jobs come through referrals, she'd have to have professional and social networks in those cities before moving. Otherwise it's just a leap into the unknown to move before having an offer in hand. If you don't work in tech, I don't think having 15 recruiters emailing you before breakfast is the norm.
If you work remote just doing things like using ssh, browsing web pages, and using Spotify and the occasional YouTube vid can eat up more than 10 GB a month. It's not hard to set up an OpenVPN server in AWS along with LetsEncrypt and have a custom VPN to use to browse securely over public wifi. Now as for speed and whether they block vpn ports or other ports needed to do your job, is where I draw the line for pub wifi usage... actually probably wouldn't use at DEF CON as well.
Whether it does or not, cuddle your children.
It’s great macOS High Sierra uses Metal because my MacBook Pro 2014 is now quiet when before the fan started spinning audibly in idle and annoyingly loud under mild load. On the flipside, WindowServer is unstable and causes freezes if the display resolution is scaled. It also causes freezes after some time when external monitors are plugged in/plugged out. Only a restart helps. If my 15" model weren’t so noisy on Sierra, I’d change back to it.
I wonder if it's possible to get a time series of the history of that ratio. Would love to plot it to see the adoption curve.
Because the unit value is entirely different? Apple Store Credit and iTunes Credit is entirely different thing.

Your Analogy is actually correct, exchanging items that is equivalent "value" or higher priced.
Hypothetical: Suppose A is a citizen of the town and one of the PETA supporters, and its thus blocked. Suppose further that they post a bridge out notice, which A cannot receive due to the block.

I have read about the refrigerator mom concept, but didn't make the link that these mothers could have potentially been autistic themselves. On this note, you are probably aware of the recent attention being paid to the diagnosis of women and girls with autism. Until recently the common conception was that males were more likely to have autism because most of the early research was done on autistic boys! And, in case you're curious to learn more and haven't heard, I've linked to an article from Scientific American (below) which reviews some newish research suggesting that females with autism have brains more closely resembling neurotypical males (and the interesting "protected sex" hypothesis, dealing with how testosterone influences the development of autism).

My dad is likely autistic, so there's the link for me. I don't know him at all, but genetics are a whacky little code system and I've magically taken a liking to electronics and computers with the same degree of passion that he supposedly applies to his work with ham radio! I was raised in a highly artistic community, and although I have developed a decent creative ability and do art as a hobby, my career path is in maths and computer science. Interesting!

If you're at a grocery store and buy plantains by accident, do you go to the plantain farmer and ask for bananas? No, you have the grocery store refund the plantains, and then buy bananas. Definitely a Wells Fargo issue.
I think the conflict here is between democracy at different levels (street/neighborhood-level democracy vs. city-level vs, state-level). Not democracy vs. anarchy or authoritarianism.

While you are absolutely correct that the presidency was won by the minority of voters, its not really correct to say the same for congress. Within the house of reps where everyone is up for election every 2 years, the republicans won the popular vote. The senate is trickier as only a 3rd of senators have an election at any given time, thus the differentials are skewed based on which states are voting at a given time.

in 2016: democrats won 53% of the vote, republicans 43%

in 2014: democrats won 43% of the vote, republicans 52%

in 2012: democrats won 53% of the vote, republicans 43%

Part of the problem when comparing popular votes nationally is that you often have situations in CA where the two candidates running for office in the general election are both democrats. when the sum total of those votes is 10m, or the differential between the number of votes the republicans received nationally and the number democrats received nationally, is it fair to complain about a lack of representation? Other times within house races there wont even be a challenger.
> That'll be changing soon, for sure.

Changing, to who?

I am genuinely asking because I really don't see any alternatives, which I agree is unfortunate and sad, but, I just don't see them right now.
One issue I think we need to address is how society basically judges things based on sound-bite descriptions of them. This is an area where I think IT can contribute, by trying to find ways to bias our communication technologies against such practices.
Divorce is a relatively new thing. You used to just work on your problems and stay together for the family. Family courts are the symptom not the problem.

I think western society causes (or promotes?) a bit of hyper-individualism which makes cohabitation really difficult. We also have much easier access to alcohol, drugs, and gambling - aka “family destroyers”.
Heritable does not imply that inheritance happens. It's the same mechanism, DNA methylation, that can pass down generations.
Clicking around, those that don't seem to be:

1. Obsolete. Either explicitly so (e.g. Google API) or abandoned, without even a minor/patch release (initools, 2010) or in some cases a code commit (e.g. pathtools, 2012) for five years or more. I suspect that they will never be Py3, the community will just move on to alternatives.

2. Working hard to bring support (e.g. ansible).

3. Part of the graphite ecosystem. If the base library won't change, none of its ecosystem will.

4. Not on public version control / issue tracking, so who knows (e.g. supervisord)

In a better world, the browser-borne language with access to DOM and other features would be small, stable, and the "transpiling" would be plain compilation.

Unfortunately, both Netscape and MS wanted control, and then it was too late.
For those who want to read an expose on the nomadic and way underpaid, I'd suggest checking out Nickel and Dimed by Barbara Ehrenreich. (actually, anything she writes is phenomenal). This whole living in your car and being nomadic is hardly new to America. I saw it when I was traveling the USA from 2001 to 2007 or so.

As I tell anyone, the only reason Los Angeles can have so many gyms is because the working homeless needs to take a shower too.

On the one hand, I'm glad that this topic is getting more attention, but I'm uncomfortable with the thought that Amazon is the poster child for this, when they are one of the few companies that has low wage workers working full time, which is very rare in this day of required health care.
Talk about treating the symptoms. The root cause is the sprawl of business insisting on locating themselves in The Bay Area / Silicon Valley. Want to solve the housing problem? Limit commercial space.

I notice boto as one of the top items on the list as compatible.

It has many many python3 crash bugs, especially on the MWS side. I have had an open PR for like a year to fix one of them, and it has been ignored.

This makes me not very hopeful that being on the list means anything.

(I am exclusively python3, but I have to wrestle with this a fair bit still)
Fine, but those people are not going to be getting another loan any time soon.
The sample size = 1 may not be enough to perceive any meaningful difference[x], but it doesn't matter. Migratory waves are not made of 1 infant with no parents. People mostly come in great numbers and carve their own ethnic communities within the host country.

[x]Various studies have found the heritability of IQ to be between 0.7 and 0.8 in adults and 0.45 in childhood in the United States. It may seem reasonable to expect that genetic influences on traits like IQ should become less important as one gains experiences with age. However, that the opposite occurs is well documented. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ#estimates

Part of my point was that if your site is going to be 20 KLOC then why not use a framework that is aimed at building 20 KLOC large sites rather than one that is aimed at writing 200 line sites.

Flask is advertised as a micro framework. if you want to rebuild Django with it then sure you can, but I personally can't see why you'd want to.

Probably the next revolution in 3D printing speed will be something that prints an entire object at once, maybe via some sort of science fiction style hologram illuminating a resin. There are technologies that kinda resemble this on the cutting edge (like continuous liquid interface production), but we are still really far away from that ideal. For the foreseeable future we are probably doomed to incremental improvements.
I wrote https://crushentropy.com/ for myself and I've been consistently using it for the past three months. It makes it easy for me to follow the scheduling technique recommended by Cal Newport in "Deep Work" and the unscheduling technique that Neil Fiore recommends in "The Now Habit".

I can say without exaggeration that this has massively increased my productivity, mainly by making me be more mindful of how I spend my day.
They might end up with a higher resolution process that is only a a few times faster. If they reduce the diameter of the filament by 30%, the layers would take longer to lay down (more passes) and have less heat to shed. But building an object would take twice as long.

If they doubled the resolution their system would still build objects over twice as fast. Twice the resolution in half the time could probably work as a sales pitch.
