You'd be surprised by how many of them use the exact same tech, rebranded. For many of them, everything about the server is the same (HTTP headers, directory structure, default logins, etc) but they'll display a different logo and maybe some different CSS.

Maybe the problem is that my sample size isn't large enough, but I've only encountered about a dozen widely used DVR servers that are actually unique tech instead of rebranding.
No, displaying those passions or emotions does not belong in any work environment.

One should be able to hold whatever views they like, and even share them with others in other communities without it affecting their work life, or status in a community without a direct interest in the controversial topic in question.
I'm not sure how much you know about the relationship between Unions and city/state government in NY, but an example of the increased costs of such a relationship include the fact that unions outsource the jobs to non-union subcontractors and the city budget is $84 Billion, 10X that of Los Angeles.
This is what a company looks like when it runs out of money...except for the part of admitting it. I know it sucks for the writers that haven't been paid, but a business not paying $50,000 across more than a dozen contractors is hardly news.
How many requests does it require per user? When I built my license checker[0] I went with making requests straight from the browser to Github. It has a lower rate limit, but it's per-client, not tied to an API key.

Let's say I'm convinced bitcoins will be worth at most $1k next year. Let's also say you have a bunch of bitcoins you're planning on sitting on for at least a year (since you're convinced the price is only going up and up).

What you then can do is lend me your bitcoins for a year and charge me interest on that loan as a way to generate some cashflow on an asset you where just going to sit on anyway.

So I'll borrow a bitcoin from you, sell it for $20k, and use some of that cash to pay you your interest. Now 1 year later I have to give you your bitcoin back. If I'm right, I can now buy a bitcoin for $1k on the market, give you the coins and pocket the difference as profits. On the other hand if bitcoins have gone up to $100k I'm screwed since I need a bitcoin to pay back my loan, and will have a loss of $100k-$20k = $80k.

An option lets me lock in the price I have to pay for a bitcoin in the future. I know that no matter what happens to the price I need to buy a bitcoin one year from now. So by taking out a call I'm buying insurance that no matter what happens I will never have to pay more than $50k for that bitcoin and thus I've capped the maximum amount of money I can lose on the deal to $50k-$20k=$30k. Without that my losses are potentially infinite.
Yes, people with opposing personal views have worked together for the entirety of human civilization, if that was not possible we would have no civilization.

When people with opposing personal views stop working together is when the problems occur. Echo Chambers and Mono Cultures lead to extremism in most instances. This is true no matter what your political or personal world view is.

Peaceful Collaboration in one area of life even with people that in other areas of life you disagree is essential to a functional society.
Bitcoin is currently not what Bitcoin was when it was created.

Slow peer-to-peer
transactions
High processing fees

Average fees are approaching 40 dollars. That's an average. Unconfirmed transactions are at an ATH of 260k... has been at over 100k for weeks. The mempool is also at an ATH. The Bitcoin is crippled and nothing more than a "store of value". Sentences like "store of value" are now the term used to describe Bitcoin. Very far from what the Bitcoin used to be.

I think there is a real possibility of a "death spiral of the blockchain". Fees will increase and it will become impossible to move coins on the blockchain besides the upper 10% of bitcoin holders.

The fork that occurred on 1st August created Bitcoin Cash. This fork is much closer to what the Bitcoin was. Bitcoin Cash is this today. Removal of the segwit code (which hasn't solved anything), disabling of RBF (replace-by-fees) enabling 0-confirmation transactions again. A new DAA (difficulty adjustment algorithm). Finally increase the block size to 8MiB.

The Bitcoin has been crippled on purpose by Blockstream deep in the pockets of bankers and insurance companies. Blockstream is the main contributor to the Bitcoin development. Look at the sponsors; https://www.blockstream.com/about/#investors

Before the bankers, and their followers, got indirectly involved in Bitcoin development there never was any discussion about limiting the block size to 1MiB; in fact the opposite was discussed. See; https://twitter.com/adam3us/status/636410827969421312?lang=e... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1314.msg15143#msg151... https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/71h884/pieter_wuille_im...

Now all of this has led to a complete divide and clusterfuck of the community. It is an very ugly and toxic environment and is sad to look at. On top of that we now have thousands of alternative coins and blockchains.

Just my 2 cents ;) Happy Christmas and new year to all!

They are definitely important, but remember that I was replying to a comment that implied the only option was for the video to be made publicly available, and my comment was primarily trying to say that was not the only option.

I'm not sure exactly what the appropriate circumstances/authority are -- not my area of expertise -- but I think ones must exist. I don't know if you're arguing against the idea that there is some appropriate circumstances/authority.

Where I learned driving, the driver is definitely required to monitor what's coming from behind when making a turn. The mantra is "mirror, indicator, shoulder":

1. look in the mirrors

2. put on the indicator (turn signal)

3. just before turning, look over your shoulder to make sure you're not running over anyone

However, given how lazily and inconsiderately many people drive, the annoying but defensive rule you describe might be the better tradeoff: make life worse for all cyclists to safe a few lives.
Relatively privileged? Schools, perhaps, but what about waitresses and retail staff?
Seattle solves the problem by having separate car and bike lights. Bikes get a preemptive green for about 15 seconds then cars have the right of way.
Not true. See my comment above. The filing shows a payment to another company that he owns, not to him. These could just be publishing costs.
No more relevant than a CEO of a company that hires people of all diets being a passionate vegan who believes eating meat is immoral.

As long as his personal views don't impact his professional behaviour, the two are not connected.
I have followed the debate for a while and am familiar with the situation. I wouldn't be overly optimistic yet.

Until now there have been a lot of bold announcements and very little changes.

Some of the things in the article paint a picture much more rosy than reality:
"Meanwhile, the city’s existing bike-lane network—already extensive, but not always well segregated from car traffic—will be more rigorously protected by bollards."

The fact is right now bike lanes are never segregated from car traffic in Berlin. There exist two kinds of bike ways in Berlin: Paintings on the street and cycleways on the pedestrian sidewalk. The bike lanes on the streets are often occupied by parking cars, and pedestrians usually walk on the other kind of cycleway like they don't exist.

I think people need safe echo chambers, even if their views are controversial; if you don't have a closer group of people to share your views with (and/or who share your viewpoints), you'll end up either just not participating at all (because someone will have problems with what you're saying), being a controversial person (and getting a lot of shit and/or even your account removed), or a boring or personality-less person with no personal views. I mean all of those work, but neither of those feel like "just be yourself".

It's probably in line with the thing about id, ego, and super-ego; you need spaces to align your id / ego, not just via the super-ego. if I'm using those phrases correctly. Probably not.
Not sure who "you" is here but nowhere in the USA is public transit expected to be profitable (excluding private coach and shuttle services, airlines, etc. as those are not "public") or even self-sustaining.

::What is bootsketch?::

Bootsketch is a sketch file that gives you all of the Bootstrap components in the latest 4.0 documentation.

::The problem::

I design a lot of sites that are developed in Bootstrap. All of the current Bootstrap sketch files seem to be missing the mark. no symbols or poor use of symbols, ineffective symbol overrides, unorganized, not resizable, colors / type aren't linked to components

:: My Solution ::

In Bootsketch I've created each symbol to be resizable, intuitive, and extendable

All colors are linked to layer styles and symbols so updating branding is extremely quick and easy. Updating text styles is just as easy

Yeah, but these jobs also often have contracts with severance packages. Executives (VP and above) are typically hired under fixed contracts that make it very expensive to get rid of them. You can demand these things if you have specialized knowledge, credentials, and relationships.

> Union workers are safer than non-union workers

More accurately, unionized working relationships enforce safer working conditions (both by contracting for conditions better than the legal minimums and providing better avenues for addressing situations which don't meet the legal and contractual minimums) than non-unionized relationships.
Apple Confirms CPU Limitation in Ageing Devices
This isn’t about battery life, it’s about sudden shutdowns. Older batteries can’t supply as much current. Apple limits performance to avoid pulling more current than the battery can supply. A bigger battery can supply more current.

People expect battery life to get worse as the battery ages. They don’t expect performance to get worse or for the phone to start shutting down spontaneously.
Being a minority is not a general leaning or a passion. Knowing your superior wants you dead(white supremacists) or psychologically tortured(conversion therapy) or inherently doesn't believe in your competence(sexism, racism, what have you) is not something one just shrugs off.

Choosing to to be apolitical is a political stance. It would be nice if we could magically divorce people's work from their stance, but their stance will affect how they treat their peers and juniors- this is how patterns of oppression become systems. If a person has beliefs that women are inherently less capable of work, they will be unlikely to volunteer women for promotions or even see their women coworkers as having performed the work done. If a person has beliefs that black people are more violent or thuggish, they are unlikely to view that black coworker asserting that a technology requirement is utterly stupid in the same light as a white coworker asserting the same.

I should emphasize these are not conscious, malicious behaviors. We are taught things about our peers and these teachings change our views on the context of the work of our peers. People rarely consciously, maliciously try to prevent the advancement of a disenfranchised group. Instead, their beliefs of that group prevent them from seeing that a member of the group deserves advancement.

People do not differentiate from the contexts of their pervasive views on how they view every other person around them. They do not cease being sexist because their workplace claims to be apolitical. It merely means they no longer have repercussions within their workplace for their beliefs, regardless of the countless absolutely unprovable ways these beliefs bleed into work.

The MTA’s current problems are not the result of underfunding in the past. But overcoming the backlog will require more money in the short term than a well-maintained system would need. Also, raising fares will allow MTA to reduce dependency on the State, which in NY tends to be an unpredictable and unstable funding source.

There is no reason for the NYC metro to be cheaper than the London Tube. They should raise fares to what the market will bear, and use the money for expansion or save it for a rainy day.

Building an API based quick report service (around Typeform, Zapier, Mailgun, and R-Project's Plumber service) for my professional and academic businesses focused on essay editing and resume writing.

Will mostly be for Asian clients who find me on China's Taobao and Weidian where we have our electronic shops.

>""Without a replacement" isn't considered a big issue because it's not like repealing the ACA shuts down the medical facilities/industry in any real way"

No, taking important things like health care away from people and not presenting any kind of a replacement is a huge deal.

>"Net neutrality is an example of polarization run amok, because I think that there would be a lot more bipartisan support for a real solution if there wasn't a sentiment that agreeing with "the other side" was an automatic stain."

Again all you can do is reframe reality into people being led astray by cable news pundits. Do you believe the majority of the population in the US are dummies? Where was the solution that was posited? Oh wait, there was none. Another subtractive, zero sum motion.

>"These are subjective perspectives informed by individual life experiences, and it's necessarily colored by our private biases,"

Again with the "there's no real issue here" - this is just people being led astray by the political media. Plenty of people with good critical thinking skills believe that their governments are representing moneyed interests ahead of them. I find your whole reductionist view that this is all just a big misunderstanding brought on by biased news media to be not only insulting but dangerous.

Again, this isn't about "left vs right" or "blue vs red" its about governments that prioritize the will of moneyed interests over people. The "other side" that people are worried about isn't a democrat or a republican the "other side" is a government that is not acting in their citizen best interests.
Wouldn't being a bad (assuming you mean in the sense of inefficient) swimmer make it a good form of exercise?
I couldn't read the linked story but I did see a video of this on a different news site.

What I found chilling was the level of technology. Each camera has AI built into it, your gait is tracked, your gender is tracked, your relationships are tracked going back one week.

The person being interviewed I don't know if he was proud of it or trying to calm fears by what he said. The point of the system he said is to gather as much data as possible on everyone so they can predict crime, very Minority Report-like stuff. So to calm everyone his point was we will know everything you do all the time in such detail we'll know your daily patterns. Lord help you if you are a spontaneous mood one day.
> Yet very few people are making serious productivity apps for the iPad Pro.

Text entry is still an unpleasant process on iOS. Even with an external keyboard, not having a good way to move the cursor around the screen without touching the screen (and even then, fingers aren't precise enough to do this quickly) makes typing long documents on it painful. I love my 12.9" iPad Pro, but until they solve this problem, it's not going to be a good productivity device.
Ultimately, it's a matter of control.

On twitter, you're still stuck in a bubble -- only, one created by ranking based on projected interaction. (Functionally, this means an angry bubble: you see only things Twitter thinks will drag you into a flamewar.)

On the fediverse, you set your own filters and pick your own followers, see things in unadulterated reverse-chronological order, and nobody's pushing promoted posts on you.

(Ultimately, this comes down to having a non-profit-oriented, non-centralized system, favoring multiple independent identities. And, it's a throwback to the pre-eternal-september era of usenet, where you went online to have reasonable discussions and added people who annoyed you to your killfile.)

Here's an incredible "How I Built This" podcast with Stonybrook Farms (yoghurt) founder Gary Hirshberg. He over-promised for years to suppliers, customers, investors on things he couldn't deliver, but made it work anyway. It's about the grittiest founder story I've heard. They ended up selling to Danone (I think) and did very well, but the company was on precarious footing for around 10 years.

Rolling Stone Publisher Sells Majority Stake to Penske, Owner of Variety
The US has plenty of space for bikes and pedestrians, but being a cyclist or pedestrian makes less sense there because the cities are so spread out. All the space taken up by those highways and parking lots mean that the places people actually want to go to are much further apart.
To your second question, it makes sense to photograph real cars when you want a movie of real cars doing normal & safe car things. If your car has eyes and a mouth and talks, then photography might not be an option.

For non-Pixar movies, if the cars are racing and crashing, then for safety it often makes more sense to go digital. Digital is very often much cheaper than photography as well. It's extremely expensive to take a movie crew out into a city to film real cars, and it can get more expensive depending on the venue and the crew size and the number of shots.

To your first question, why not is an equally valid question. Realism is a choice, and fantasy/unrealism is also a choice. People employ both choices all the time, so it's not one or the other, and Pixar's quest for realistic shading has no bearing on what other people choose. But in general, realism is good for believability, it makes things look tangible and can increase the viewer's emotional connection to a story. Sometimes non-photorealistic animation can break the viewer out of a story, and sometimes (depending on the story & the environment & details) non-photorealism can enhance a story. It all depends on what the story is, and how good it is.
