You've touched my heart with this comment. I had a 1.8s MX5 for 4 years. Fantastic little car. Everything about it. Couldn't find a single fault with anything. Simply superb.

I now have a 3.4 Boxster S, which feels largely like a more grown up version of the MX5. Much, much quicker - put it in sports plus mode, fire up launch control, put the PDK gearbox into manual, switch off the traction control and it's a real blast, however, on public roads, it's simply scary at times. This is the real problem, it feels very anti-social (at best) to do that on all but the quietest of roads and outright illegal on most others. Hence I feel myself yearning for another MX5...
These aren’t the people doing the actual redistricting - that is controlled by the government of each state. Redistricting is generally needed to respond to changes in population - with a set number of representatives in most legislative bodies and an expectation of one person/one vote, districts need to be redrawn fairly frequently to deal with geographically concentrated population growth or decline.
Tramiel's Atari Corp did manage to keep 8-bit-ish pricing on its ST line, despite the 68k switch.

But yeah, if the 65816 had come out a year or two earlier, I wonder if Amiga and Tramiel and friends would have chosen to develop on that instead. An 8/16 processor that could address larger memory regions but still could use 8-bit memory and 6502 support chips, and had the cycle efficiency and simplicity of the 6502. Apple came out with the IIgs based on it, but overpriced it.
A lot of crypto fans would say you could avoid the exposure once all commerce is conducted without conversion to fiat. To include wages.
Thanks, and I'm so sorry about your friend. The Twilio magic is basic: buy a Twilio number that's as local as possible to the prison (say 999-#######), have it forward to the contact's real landline or cell (say 444-#######), then pay through connectnetwork.com for the 999 number to receive what are basically "collect" calls.

If you're just doing it for yourself, and you're not already using Google Voice (GV) or have a Google user id to spare, you can get the 999 local number through GV, and then have it forward to your landline/cell. That's a little cheaper than Twilio.

For Twilio, I use a "Twimlbin" for each number, see below. An added benefit is that the callee (the outside person taking the call) always sees the same caller id, and so can put that in their address book with a suitable label.

Connectnetwork also has a protocol (a little more complex and finicky than unattended collect calls) which require the callee to press the right keys to accept the calls (or to reject them). I sometimes get that wrong (one out of three times) and sometime the system seems finicky (I thought I did it right, but it still treats me as if I rejected the call). So our prisoner knows to call a few times.

If this is still complex, hit me up on email (in profile) or comment here. I'd be happy to help.

But at the same time we're engineers with pessimistic minds focussed on failure and monetization so I sadly expect different.
Is it possibly to model that efficiently with a total programming language - or do we need a turing-complete language to write a feature-rich vector (or array, matrix, `Vector a N`, etc.) library?

I sometimes wonder if we should maybe invest more in non-turing-complete language research. Obviously Haskell (and Rust) are improvements to the status-quo (critical code can be guarded explicitely via unsafe attributes and written by experts), but maybe this does not go far enough.
Most cost goes to nickel, cobalt, manganese and other similar metals.

Increasing mining capacity can reduce the cost significantly. In very far future tho, most of it is probably going to be all recycled, but thats like 50 years ahead.
iOS 11.2.1 privacy gap
Appears this version has a privacy or security gap. Waterlogue is an app that is able to read and render effects on photos accessed from the photo library, even when “never” is selected as the option for settings > privacy > photos.

Is anyone else able to replicate the issue with other apps or iOS versions on their phones?
Missing rows in the tables are human reaction time (~250 ms) and human perceived-as-instantaneous time (~100ms).

Beyond a lot of wasteful programming, we also understand better today what we are engineering for than we did in 1977.

Open API specification for Robinhood(Unofficial)
The owners manual about keeping things oiled and preventing cards from binding (it's read in a mellow British accent in the music piece I mentioned in another comment). I never thought about it until now, but I guess being around this machine would be more like working on a car or factory equipment than what we would consider a data center machine.
They should sell those.
I mean, it’s 150 characters. It’s not going to stop someone who is interested in the position, but it might put a speed bump up for the person applying to every single job they can find. I can empathize with getting writers block for it though.
Reaction time is irrelevant here, because you're anticipating a response to your input, not triggering the stopwatch in response to unexpected events. Human sensitivity to timing is much better. Great drummers can hit the beat to within a few milliseconds. If you've watched the movie "Whiplash", think of the "rushing or dragging" scene.

See http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal....
My experience is that a skilled clocker can have 10ms precision if you take away the reaction times. Now a bad clocker we are talking 100-400ms off. Try for example stopping a stop-watch at exactly 10.00 seconds.
I agree, services to support are very important and models that reduce harm should be encouraged and adopted

I also find the ClojureScript ecosystem vibrant and growing
> seems like a long time but that includes the time to look at each shot and delete the crap. They are faster because they know when they take the shot if they missed and they delete without looking at it.

One tip I picked up early (especially for something like sports where if you've missed the shot, the moment is gone) is to just take more shots and not even think about sorting or deleting them during the shoot. I ended up with a lot more usable images that way.

The one exception was when my DSLR mirror broke and I suddenly had to fully manually meter and focus (which I'd done before but wasn't exactly familiar or comfortable with it). That was an interesting shoot! IIRC, I was having to shoot with a narrow aperture (not ideal as it was in a dark room) and compensate with a higher ISO/longer shutter speed, then check the focus after the shot, as I didn't have a working view finder to properly dial in the focus.
I don't think that's necessary. The loss of atmosphere by Mars may have been significant on the timescale of its five-billion-years history, but not on the timescale of a human settlement project.

The mass of the Martian atmosphere is about 25 teratonnes [1]. According to the measurements by MAVEN, the rate of mass loss by Martian atmosphere due to solar wind is 100 g/s [2]. At this rate it would take

25e12 * 1000 * 1000 * 0.01 / 100 / 3600 / 24 / 365.25 = 79 million years

for Mars to loose 1% of the mass of its atmosphere. Even if the rate of mass loss were 10 times higher than measured by MAVEN (it's known to increase during solar storms and in perihelium), it'd still take nearly 8 million years.

Looks like if we can increase density and pressure of Martian atmosphere as GP suggested, we don't really need to worry about the lack of magnetospheric protection.

I'm not sure how easy it is to do DSLs. You don't see this popup in the Red or Rebol docs for a reason. It is homoiconic like Lisp, so it should be feasible. I'd love to hear some of the core devs like doc respond.
I think you’re confusing aims and mechanisms.
>human perceived-as-instantaneous time (~100ms)

Nonsense. You can test this yourself. Open a fast terminal, eg. xterm (libvte based terminals have a low framerate and are unsuitable).

Try:

sleep 0; echo "test"
sleep 0.05; echo "test"

The difference is immediately obvious.
Doesn't take many counter-examples to invalidate an idea. Good point.
<Neurotic pedantry>

The GP quoted "MacOS" when the correct capitalization would indeed have been "macOS". What you're referring to is most correctly termed the Macintosh System Software, which is way too long and could also be referred to as the System Software or System.

The camelCase capitalization is a 2017 thing, not a 1984 thing.

</Neurotic pedantry>

I'm not sure what point MacOS got its name.

The first point must be cross-over from angular :-) He said he doesn't like angular, that must be why.

Personally, I am super jealous of angular for having observables. I work with React and would love some Rx in our app too, but we aren't using it. Ditto for typescript - our app is mostly untyped javascript with sprinkles of Flow, while angular would have enforced typescript.
Ractive is MVVM, it is a totally different paradigm https://ractive.js.org/tutorials/two-way-binding/

MVVM was a thing for like that six month period in 2012 when backbone.js was causing callback hell and React.js hadn't come out yet, MVVM is an attempt to abstract over the callbacks.
If I accept your "True sense of the word", then many early operating systems, like the "SHARE Operating System" from 1959, are not, actually, operating systems.

I prefer to believe that you are using a stricter definition of the word/phrase, rather one which encompasses how that word/phrase was actually used by practitioners in the field.

Yeah, by 'busted' I meant 'got exposed' / 'got caught with their pants down' by the public. Nothing to do with legality of stated act.
> bed at 11pm, wake up at 630am

Interestingly, this is on a 90 minute boundary, so you should naturally be in a wakeful sleep state when you awake. I’ve found that 7.5 hours is best for me too, because 6 hours isn’t long enough and 9 hours is too long, so 7.5 is the sweet spot (and anything not on a sleep cycle boundary and I wake up very tired). 11pm also seems to be the best time for me to go to bed, although I’m naturally a night person, but if I have to work, going to bed later doesn’t leave me with enough time to get 7.5 hours and still make it to work.

So... I didn’t try a process like yours to find my optimal times, but mine seems to be quite similar to yours.

Having said that, I’m not a light sleeper in that some noise doesn’t bother me or wake me and I normally don’t have much trouble getting to sleep, but I do find I often wake up still tired. Its mostly solved by keeping a consistent sleep schedule and sticking to 7.5 hours.
Why is a server on localhost using HTTPS instead of HTTP? Oh, I know, because "no one should be using unencrypted HTTP in 2017". This is the fruit the SSL security theater mania has borne.
It's like there's an echo in here.
Following a beat will give you very consistent times, but they can still be off! Try with a stop watch and try to stop it at exactly 10 seconds (you are free to look at the clock), you'll probably be 10-30ms off. Then try stopping it at an arbitrary time, but the same every time, and you will probably stop it at the exactly same time every time!
The only model researchers found to do randomization correctly was the Cat S60

Amusingly enough, that's probably more because of an oversight by the manufacturer (who is probably just copying a reference design) --- they don't bother writing a "fixed MAC" and just leave the NVRAM blank, meaning the device doesn't actually have a MAC and generates a random one every time you turn WiFi on and off.

That's how it works on the Mediatek platforms that I'm more familiar with, and you'll find this is the case for a lot of the cheap Chinese unbranded phones. It's irritating when you need to connect to networks using MAC filtering, but I'm almost tempted to respond to all the "my MAC keeps changing" threads on XDA with "that's a feature, not a bug." ;-)
> “App for sharing lonliness and aloneness...”

The words "loneliness and aloneness" don't mean what you think. Read the comment to which you replied and which was written by the author of the app, "and find more acceptance of ourselves and our aloneness, however happy, peaceful, or sad."

> Lose the semantic crap.

There are better ways to relate to people.
I've written a few minor Tk based apps in Python and if you look at Rebol (Red's ancestor) it is much much much easier to build a similar GUI. This Rebol guy has several sites where he builds dozens of small applications that are almost freaking one liners:

In most systems the mouse cursor is rendered with a hardware sprite like in old games consoles. In some GUIs it's actually switched to software rendering when you resize windows so it stays synchronized with the laggier redraws.
Alan Cooper has written about the early history of Visual Basic and how it came to be [1]. Two things i always find interesting was that in his original prototype he didn't use a language at all, but instead used arrows between controls to connect events with methods (i remember seen something similar in an ancient version of Smalltalk for Windows 3.1 that i found in a magazine cover disk back in the 90s) and that in the original version after Microsoft started working on it, it wasn't only the controls that could be extended via DLLs, but also the language itself. Both of those didn't make the cut for VB1, but personally i find them interesting as ideas since they seem to fit well with the overall theme extensibility VB had.

While I know you meant that comment in jest, it suggests that I wasn't clear enough.

My implicit argument is that there's there's no reason to believe that line counting adds anything more than trivial overhead to the less output, so there's no reason to even consider this optimization, much less getting to the point to make a pull request.
Of course, part of the reason is the only 128K of RAM. It was only one year later that 64K and 256K DRAM prices fall fast, leading to US makers leaving the market and dumping charges.
My experience with nitpicking and semantic parsing on this site says otherwise, and you’re certainly another brick in that wall.
It appears to be capable of 4k at 300fps. That requires fast (and a decent amount of) storage to utilise - gigabit Ethernet to a network store is one way of accomplishing that.

It's also useful for remote control -- there are scenarios where there is place to set up a camera, but an operator can't be there as well -- and for automatic downloads (e.g. in a studio setting).
I love Waze and I never drive without it. Sure driving through neighborhoods at 25mph can be annoying at times, but the forward-looking incident and calamity avoidance mechanism is worth it. Not to mention police.

Some thoughts:

1. I would pay Waze a monthly fee to get premium routes, and

2. Pay an additional fee to avoid police activity.

> My experience with nitpicking and semantic parsing on this site says otherwise, and you’re certainly another brick in that wall.

There was no nitpicking or cherry picking. The entirety of your comment related to how being alone is a sickness. I pointed out that being alone is not a sickness. I supported this with three healthy comments from the very first page of the site.

Instead of actually discussing, you have twice turned to personal attacks.
My family are based in New Zealand and make a feriliser that is high in carbon and micronutrients (we use seaweed). Even after pot trials and field trials showing massive benefits we found it nearly impossible to sell to farmers. Generally they are sick of snake oil salesmen peddling the next best product.
Farmers mindsets are almost immutable - we even had farmers who used some and saw the anecdotal benefits (worms) and then just switched back to regular SSP because it was what they always did.
We had a lot more success with vineyards.

> You have to remember to setup the properties you mutate so the reactivity will detect a change

This is a positive thing imo. It's a declaration of your data schema. You can reference it to remember what kind of data you're working with. This gets rid of unproductive moments like "What was the name of this property again? Is this property an object or an array? Is it nested inside this object or that object?"
A lot of the comments here imply that style can be fixed with a linter, but what about the style of things other than syntax, like choices in variable names,

> "Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,"

That secret services actually have that level of leverage over sitting presidents and other politicians is the core problem.

Can't people elect honest people (i.e. not bought off by BigCapital/Russians/Chinese, doesn't have multiple cases of rape or sexual harassment, countless extramarital affairs, doesn't have videos circulating with them showing Nazi salutes or similar) any more?

Seems like any random cat and dog could run for office and actually win the post than the bunch of entrenched politicians. That people don't give a flying f..k what their representatives do and give them a kick into their behinds when they get caught being bribed - and instead even reelecting them - is way beyond my comprehension.

And the danger is not just people like Hoover exploiting the leverage, IMHO that's a minuscule threat. What the FBI can find out about a politician can most likely be also discovered by Russia or China and turned into leverage there, with way more potential for damage. And: just because you're president this does not mean you should be able to get off scot free with collusion with Russians or with rape. Or with anything. Public servants serve the constituents and have to be accountable, otherwise it's no longer a democracy.

Right, I get that, my point is increases in 'keypress to character in terminal' latency don't warrant conclusions like "Almost every computer and mobile device that people buy today is slower than common models of computers from the 70s and 80s." Low-latency interaction is still there, it's just not in typing because typing is a less important mode of interaction.
HDR600 doesn’t require 600nits actually it requires 320, the flash brightness is a useless metric the problem with displays that can’t provide sufficient brightness is continuous clipping of highlights not that they can’t momentarily blind you.

Pretty much anything other than OLED or Sony’s full array dimming won’t have proper HDR functionality especially after calibration which tends to reduce the peak and average brightness of the display considerably.

VESA has a chance to step in and do something proper they chose the have the shittiest requirements possible.

The only one currently in the PC monitor scene which is serious about HDR is NVIDIAz

Gsync HDR requires a 1000 nits brightness and full array dimming with 380 zones or more for LCD panels.
I mean, isn't it all varying degrees of provable things? At the end of the day you're still at the mercy of the hardware uncertainty when crossing clock domains and the like.

To me it's all about the risk factors you're willing to accept and how you decide to mitigate against them.

Well, the 520ST was $799.99 for the monochrome computer, so it was quite a bit more expensive than the Atari 65XE at $99.99. If I remember correctly the 68000 itself cost north of $200 in quantities, so it was impossible to stay in the old price range.

I remember a story of Commodore / Amiga trying to use the Amiga chipset with a cheaper processor. Of course they also tried it with a PA-RISC.

Not sure what that has to do with anything.

South Korea forces people to use their social insurance number to sign up to forums and commenting on social media. Again, not sure why you are using China, they aren't the only ones trying to deanonymize online.

> And fwiw, most of the other boards on 4chan at least tend to push the more obnoxious sorts of commentary back to /pol/, its 'containment board'.

What the parent is referring to is that online anonymous platforms attracts toxic trolls that overtake a platform, even with the moderation you mentioned. When people hide behind a faceless mask, it brings out the worst in people, simply because of the dopamine release from inflicting pain on others to feel good about their otherwise miserable life.

> Twitter likewise tends to isolate communities of extremists, on both sides, simply by virtue of explicit blocking or mere lack of sufficient interest to follow on the part of more balanced participants.

Twitter hasn't done a great job, it's overrun by bots with political agendas, people are mob attacked and it's a poor case to support your assertion that anonymous somehow works even against the mounting evidence against it.
Especially when the prisoners are minorities, who are easily dehumanized as evil "others".
