> Restriction of range, such as floor and ceiling effects or selection effects, reduce the power of the experiment, and increase the chance of a type II error.[5] This is because correlations are attenuated (weakened) by reduced variability

If you want to try this for yourself, try generating some fake SAT scores: (a,b) pairs where a and b are normally distributed with mean 500 and sd 100, and where a and b correlate at about 0.8.

Then, from your unbiased data set, select all the pairs for which 1600 >= a + b >= 1300, and check the correlation of a with b in the new, smaller data set.

Just examining this as a thought experiment, you can see that someone with an 800 math score might have a verbal score anywhere from 500 to 800. If we lower the math score, our expectation for the verbal score rises -- someone with a 600 math score will have a verbal score between 700 and 800. That is the basis of the negative correlation in the subgroup, but it's purely an artifact of the way we chose to label data points as being in or out of the subgroup.

In a pair programming situation, this is very useful.

And yes, one cursor. But you can have multiple terminal sessions open on your local machine, but only be connected to one common session. That defeats the purpose of pair programming though.

You both want to be focusing on the same thing, at the same time.
We don't do benchmarks. Our network security team verifies VPN transaction performance and ensures packet security using general purpose scripts that, strangely, look like they're doing basic db operations on different servers and systems. The unfortunate side effect are numbers related to network latency and, I suppose, system performance. But of course we don't care about that.
To be fair, this happened because games themselves couldn't raise their prices with the times. They've actually decreased in price from the SNES days; Final Fantasy 3 cost $80, for one. meanwhile the cost of everything has increased. Games can't work well at a base price of $100, so they try to pass the costs along piecemeal.

Something has to give.
I don't like working from home personally. I pollute my personal space with working habits. And pollute my working habits with my activities from my living space. So for me, going away from home to work - even just a coffee shop.

If I need to be working from home I like to use pomodoro to keep me on task. Having a clear list of tasks is good. Taking notes in org-mode on the activities that I'm working on is also good. Basically anything that I would normally do to deal with complexity I need to do when I'm working at home or I end up wasting swathes of time unless I'm really well slept and on point (which I'm usually not because I work at a tiny startup)
I agree - I should've added to my "today's hot things" list though :)

Because of course they do. Just like we all do. Everyone has a file they backup just because they might need to reference it. Index.txt is my cross.

No point in burning the printing presses. We have to learn to get along.

Enjoy living, learning will come naturally as you pursue your interests. Those interests will change, growing, cultivating other fields of knowledge, grappling for your attention.

Culture you enjoy as only a human can, and cultivate it. Distribute and share it. As humans we are denying our own renaissance with a ministry of silly walks. Sometimes I think high school UN clubs are better at running the world. Why not. It doesn't seem to matter anymore.
> But jail time? Sorry, that's not just a "mistake", that's outright reckless stupidity (obvious exception: protesting civil issues or similar).

Is spray painting “corporate deathburgers” on a McDonalds not a form of protest? Sure it’s vandalism as well, but it’s also protest.

What if they spray painted “we are 99%” on the same McDonald’s and got jail time? Then “it’s different”?
Defining 'Cyber Attack' Would Bolster Cyber Defenses
There is a dashboard called github? Or what are you looking for?

I think if you want to make sure that all your changes are in, you need to do what most programmers do and learn to finish a programming session with a commit and push, just like you finish a sentence with a dot. Once you are used to it, the chance of forgetting are really low.
What is more troubling is when people like you, who have no first hand knowledge, insists that you know better by just reading a few articles on the internet. And, you're pathetic to assume that murder is acceptable.
Spray painting on property that is not yours is vandalism. Vandalism is illegal.

When I said "protest", I meant getting wrongfully arrested for peaceful protesting, e.g., during the civil rights movement. The kind of arrest that involves standing up for what's right. That is something we can all learn from.

Getting arrested for spray painting? That's plain stupid. Maybe Banksy could write a similar op-ed, but I would still think that his argument was stupid.
> They didn't earn it.

And what exactly does Zuckerburge do earn the millions he makes every year? Personally, nothing. Everything him and Gates et. al. did was leverage the capital of people they convinced to work for them.

When I worked in an office in Seattle where a 1/bdr was $1800/month, I would watch a janitor come around each day and empty my trash can. I'm sure he made a fraction of what I did, but honestly, I'm sure he did more work .. or at least the same amount. What I do is more difficult, and I was lucky to be raised in a family that had the means to send me to college and I was lucky to pick a career field that earned me that money.

So much of what we have isn't earned. It's more by chance. The major determining factor in your succeeding (school, career, etc.) is determined before you are born. If you're born into poverty, it is very very difficult to get out.

To quote George Carlin, it's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe in it.

It holds for both, the difference is in what is classed as a successful result. With the physical sciences you expect the outcome of your experiment to be something repeatable, as it implies you've understood the variables well enough to do so. On the other hand, with social science we accept that our knowledge of the variables is too limited to expect repeatability, so our experiments rely on statistical correlation in order to show whether a hypothesis was worthy of further exploration.

In both cases, you need experimentation to back up your claims. Social science without experimental results is just collective dogma.

Can you imagine the number of devices that get needlessly replaced because of this? Talk about taking planned obsolescence to the next level. Battery wear is as certain as death and taxes in a mobile device, and this feature converts obvious battery wear into ambiguous device wear.

I would not be surprised if this were class action lawsuit material.
Hey now, they're "actively working to develop a solution that will enable Hangouts to work in Firefox without a [NPAPI] plugin" [0].

These things take time, you know. Especially with the limited resources of Google, Mozilla not already having announced the deprecation of NPAPI plugins two years ago [1] and there not already being a web standard, mainly pushed by Google, that enables video and audio calling for every modern browser out there [2].

I'm pro nn but maybe the reason no debates or enters discussions is that you poison the well before they get the chance.

If this was a topic we differed on I'd skip talking to you as well since you come off as someone who is fanatically locked to their mindset anyway (so why waste the effort) as well given how you chose to start the engagement of question if I really want to deal with your attitude.

don't expect ppl to debate or discuss with you if you belittle them and don't enter the discussion in good faith.
If the battery is so small that it can't last 2 years of normal wear without becoming "horrible", the design is bad. Papering over the bad design by making the phone run at less than 60% of rated speed, on purpose, is even worse. Battery wear is expected, but it is not reasonable to expect that the CPU will be affected too, and this has never been disclosed AFAIK. Also, replacing a non-user-replaceable battery is not a "simple" solution.
Oh geez, thanks both for pointing that out.
The problem is believing the economics of running wires to everyone's home has fundamentally changed since the 1990s. Vertically integrated broadband ISPs have elements of both telecommunications and information services. The FCC chose to allow vertical integration, supposedly believing it would increase competition. Other countries kept them separate and have more competitive markets as a result.
No, I don't think that's fair.

But the author is explicitly​ encouraging such behavior because it all worked out for him/her in hindsight. That's what I don't agree with.

Another free Lisp book, one that focuses on macros -- and is quite readable -- is YC-founder Paul Graham's "On Lisp".
There's a download page [0] (for the book and code) at paulgraham.com as well as the following on a description page [1]:

On Lisp is a comprehensive study of advanced Lisp techniques, with bottom-up programming as the unifying theme. It gives the first complete description of macros and macro applications. The book also covers important subjects related to bottom-up programming, including functional programming, rapid prototyping, interactive development, and embedded languages. The final chapter takes a deeper look at object-oriented programming than previous Lisp books, showing the step-by-step construction of a working model of the Common Lisp Object System (CLOS).

As well as an indispensable reference, On Lisp is a source of software. Its examples form a library of functions and macros that readers will be able to use in their own Lisp programs.

"Obvious" exception?

"Hey, get your stupid protest out of my way to work, jerk."

See how that works? Not so obvious anymore, is it?

The issue we currently have is that the US justice system is set up for punishment and retribution rather than rehabilitation. We also have a problem in that we somewhere began trying to punish people even after they have "served their punishment and made retribution".

Both of these need to change.
Doesn't sound like it but unfortunately that's not enough information for me to tell. It might be. BTW a "contract" includes pretty much every transaction, even if immediately performed.

From ATO tax treaties: https://treasury.gov.au/tax-treaties/income-tax-treaties/ to USA DTA (double taxation avoidance) "Convention between the Government of Australia and the Government of the United States of America for the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income"

> Article 12 Royalties

> (4) The term "royalties" in this Article means:

> (a) payments or credits of any kind to the extent to which they are consideration for the use of or the right to use any:

> (i) copyright, patent, design or model, plan, secret formula or process, trademark or other like property or right;

So, by 12.(a)(4)(i), if a customer pays you so they can redistribute your copyrighted code (i.e. a component), it's a "royalty".

BTW Reading it literally, this "right" includes the mere use of copyrighted material - but here it's meant as more serious aspects of copyright, like the right of (re)distribution.

IIRC, there's a wrinkle: in something like a compiler, which is used by the customer and not redistributed, but includes some part that is redistributed (like stdlib), this anxilliary distribution doesn't alter the character of the primary transaction. IIRC, the ATO stated this in what I think is called a "tax note" - a decision made internally (i.e. not held by a court).
tl;dr you can get away with a little redistribution
I don't know what that means. You based some argument on a made-up quote. That argument can't be right, can it?

Edit: I'll summarize the arguments you've made so far and the obvious objections.

- The Odyssey is a trivial story of a dude returning to his wife [Not true, 20-odd centuries of scholarship saying otherwise]

- There is a tiny number of stories all stories reduce to (possibly two), a Major Writer of a World Literature Said So [not true, and, obviously, he did not say that]

- The above idea is somehow supported by tvtropes [tvtropes is wonderful but also full of thousands of tropes rather than two]

Every single one of these things is just deeply and demonstrably wrong. The totality of your evidence is... a made-up Tolstoy quote and a country song? It's hard to tell how to even argue with this.

An arrest can be perfectly legal, despite being unethical. Saying that vandalism is illegal and is therefore an illegitimate form of protest is like saying that the Civil Rights Movement sit-ins were illegal, and were therefore an illegitimate form of protest. It simply doesn't follow.

Do I think that it is an effective form of protest? Not in the slightest. Do I think that it can be categorically ruled out on the basis of legality? Absolutely not.
In 1820, the vast majority of people lived in extreme poverty and only a tiny elite enjoyed higher standards of living. Economic growth over the last 200 years completely transformed our world, with poverty falling continuously over the last two centuries. This is even more remarkable when we consider that the population increased 7-fold over the same time. In a world without economic growth, an increase in the population would result in less and less income for everyone. A 7-fold increase in the world population would be potentially enough to drive everyone into extreme poverty. Yet, the exact opposite happened. In a time of unprecedented population growth, we managed to lift more and more people out of poverty.

...

In 1990, there were 2 billion people living in extreme poverty. With a reduction to 705 million in 2015, this means that on average, every day in the 25 years between 1990 and 2015, 137,000 fewer people were living in extreme poverty.

Socialism didn't do that. Capitalism and liberalism did.

(1) All batteries degrade. Really not sure why you think Apple would be any different.

In a single integration test? That'd be pretty absurd.

At least in our project, each integration test has a certain amount of overhead. Some backends are fakes (when I request X, you provide Y), some are actually booted up with the test, e.g. persistence.

Multiply this across N integration tests, have lots of demand for the same CPUs, and you're up to 30-40 minutes of integration test time.

Though, that said, some integration tests can be crazy long if they have a lot of "waitFor" style conditions. "Do this, then wait for something to happen in backend Z. Once that's done, do this, and this, and this..."

An alternative view is that a college student making dumb mistakes is not being sufficiently (or effectively) guided through their specific interests and passions. While I agree that people should be able to make mistakes and learn and recover from them I also think that college students are generally unguided. The consequence is that many opportunities (not dumb and not mistakes) are unrecognized and lost.

I think it’s worth noting that Rice’s theorem and the undecidability of the halting problem apply to arbitrary programs. In practice, the programs that humans write are very much non-arbitrary. Moreover, sometimes we’re happy to trade a bit of expressive power in exchange for stronger guarantees—like using a total/strongly-normalising language in which the answer to “Does this program terminate for all inputs?” is always “Yes”. In a similar vein, most real numbers are uncomputable, but we pretty much only care about the computable ones AFAIK.
File synchronization helps me keep documents and other data ready in both my laptop and worstation (that way I can always be on the go). Dropbox, google drive or resilio can help.

I also try to keep different users to help me focus on work on my machines, maybe even enable some kind of parental controls in the work account if you find yourself drifting away browsing the web (blocking some distracting websites).

You can get a permit to protest. Also, there are venues that are more suitable than others. If you are part of a strike, things become different.

But assuming all of the above is invalid, don't you think protesting an issue like segregation is worth getting people upset about their delayed commute?

Personally, I wouldn't mind sacrificing some of my convenience to support people protesting an issue that is important. In a way, it's the price I pay for not joining in on the protest!

> the author is explicitly​ encouraging such behavior

That wasn't what I read.

What I read was if you do something that happens to be negative in some way and get noticed, this is now a permanent scarlet letter.

This can range from his "corporate deathburgers" (which is vandalism) to a "controversial editorial" (which isn't illegal at all but can bring the wrath of the universe on you).

I bet that ALL of us have said things at various points that we would not want recorded forever.

Unfortunately, we have not yet evolved appropriately calibrated social behaviors to deal with this. The current modality of "No Tolerance--Burn The Infidel(tm)" for everything, no matter how minor, is not helpful.
Doesn't seem like the highest-quality source and I'm pretty skeptical of their conclusions, but regardless:

Your TLDR doesn't make much sense. So we're making less progress for the last 20 years (but still making progress) therefore capitalism is unsustainable and we should replace it with the same tired system that's been tried over and over again for the last century without even a hint of success?

OK.
