Knitting is not for everyone, but by choosing not to be a knitter, I'm generally not missing out on social/career advancement opportunities (e.g. I apply for a job but I'm not in a frat, I'm more qualified than the next guy, but the next guy was a frat brother of the hiring manager, so guess who wins?).

Even if I do choose to be a knitter, I'm generally not putting myself at higher risk of death, such as by being forced to drink toxic amounts of alcohol and then having my supposed "brothers" abandon me after I fall down the stairs and lie there bleeding to death.

There's a huge logical gap inside the statement, "not everyone has to like thing XYZ, q.e.d. there can be no criticism of thing XYZ".

The reruns of TNG you're watching and likely the HD remastered copies which had the CGI redone for Blu-ray. So it isn't really 90s effects you're watching.

Furthermore I don't think those scenes you've described are there purely for the sake of impressing the audience. I think they are there to help explain the narrative. Like how in other - eg non sci-fi - shows you'll often get scenes of a car pulling up to a building to help explain that person has just arrived. Or scenes from outside a building to help explain to audiences where the following inside scene is based.

Wouldn't be so sure considering the sort of machines people are building would slot into the iMac Pro slot in their lineup in terms of power.

Of course they wont care about $400 hackintoshes but if people are putting together $2K - $3.5 ones it starts to look more in the ballpark of a lost iMac or iMac Pro sale.
Sorry for late response. I usually take down notes, but don't always remember where I put them. They are usually organized into what makes sense, but if I later remember and want to go back to that topic, I may not remember where it was written down.

For example I may have an idea to do something, and that would be in google docs, but then I might have some tasks and put them into trello. By searching for the idea's name, I should be able to see both the original write up and the tasks in trello, and potentially any messages I wrote to other people about it.

Google Books I can understand the argument against. There are actual copyrights to protect. In the case of research Elsevier does approximately nothing. The research and the peer review has already been paid for by every one of us. That we then don't get free access to it is a scandal.

States could solve this whole mess tomorrow by just passing a law that states "if you take our money to do research the end result needs to be available to the general public for free". The chicken-and-egg problem of everyone just moving to open-access journals for everything would be solved.

As for 2001, it is a very meaningful film to me, but it does not surprise me that kids would have trouble with it. I think you really need to be an adult, and be prepared to think and put your own interpretation on it, in order to appreciate it.

I disagree. The video of him talking down to a driver seemed to be the catalyst. Once that came out, everyone that disliked Travis, stood to benefit from his dismissal, or just hated Uber, piled on with story after story. As an executive, he was aggressive and didn’t play nice with competitors or politicians seeking to limit his business and/or put their hands in its pockets. Show me someone that has built a $40+ billion business out of thin air that isn’t constantly pushing the limits like he did.

Airbnb was born out of Craigslist spam. Facebook only grew because of a contact spammer that is still in use to this day. In Facebook’s early days, Hotmail temporarily blocked Facebook invite spam and their growth instantly dropped by 90%. Uber used Greyball to avoid giving rides to those in violation of its terms of service, some of whom were undercover law enforcement personnel looking to disrupt its business.

These big businesses don’t come to fruition by accident, and the one thing they seem
to have in common is that most of them broke the rules to get where they are. It may not be pleasant or politically correct, but it’s a fact of life.

I would say that my childhood would be lost if it was not for the fact that I did not had any TV.
Or more correct to say is that children now do not have childhood as people had 30 years ago.

Rarely you will see someone who know the trill of climbing 40m high tree(age of 7). Swimming in lake while thunderstorm rages around you. Grabbing red coal with hand. Eating baked stolen potatoes in middle of forest where you got lost. Making an failure of bow to hunt. Starting a fire, then living the consequences. Giving no shits about drama and other people's feelings. Slicing up toad to see what is inside. Running from crazy animals. Crossing the voltage wires for shits and giggles. No child died in our village from these bullshits, just got smarter.

Movie will do that for you and tell you how to feel. They will provide you with fake imagination and experience.
Cool thanks for the link on Glossa. I always thought it was possible for a collective resignation of an editorial board but I've never seen it realized.

I'm curious why/how it was possible for them to do it. The Wikipedia link mentions that there was a disagreement between the editors and Elsevier. How were the editors able to collectively organize and leave en masse? What can editorial boards of other journals learn from this?

> So - since a quick research did not turn up anything - is there a WASM to C "transpiler" that generates readable C?

I'm not aware of one, though it would probably be trivial to write. https://github.com/WebAssembly/binaryen has the helping code for things like parsing. Both https://github.com/kanaka/wac and https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasm-jit-prototype interpret WASM. The latter even JITs into LLVM IR.

I don't think Elsevier see SciHub as the biggest threat. No, the biggest threat is that now the EU has told researchers "You have to publish OA", researchers have two options: publish preprints of everything, or start paying Elsevier loads of cash. Obviously everyone is now starting to do the first option (usually via institutional repos, which at least Google Scholar indexes). And people are finding it to be a good low-effort system.

Elsevier lost when they agreed to allow people (mostly just some people in math and physics back then) to post preprints online.

MiniDisc was definitely cool -- so cool that I bought a portable deck, and dubbed some CDs down for travel because it was smaller than carrying a Discman -- but it was also clearly doomed from the start. CD adoption was incredibly rapid because it was so obviously better in every way than cassettes, and offered (or could offer) superior fidelity vs vinyl.

Minidisk didn't have either of those going for it -- plus, Sony's complete (?) control of it meant nobody else was making equipment. That nearly everyone brought CD decks to market in the early/mid 80s meant that, over the course of maybe 4 years, CD went from "rich dude toy" to "I got a CD boom box for high school graduation".

You probably nail it with "Sony Hubris." To think they could recreate that perfect storm of demand and success was bananas. People duplicated their music libraries on CD, but no WAY were they gonna do that AGAIN after having bought into "perfect sound forever" on CD.

(Well, at least "perfect sound for decades;" my oldest CDs are from 1987, and the ones I still want to listen to still sound fine.)
But there are thousands of gods. How do you decide? Pascal was a product of his times, and could only conceive of "Atheist vs Deist". Only savages could worship false gods; that wasn't even in his mind. Today his assertion sounds feeble.

They seem to be using https://www.eternum.io to "pin" the file (keep a copy of the file alive). Since eternum is a paid service they might unpin after a while but it's up to them. If they didn't do that, the file might only be available as long as your browser is open.
Certainly excellent at marketing the idea that selling services to people should be called the "sharing economy".

Some more highlights:

> In terms of total returns, residential real estate and equities have shown very similar and high real total gains, on average about 7% per year.

> The data summary in Table 3 and Figure 2 show that residential real estate, not equity, has been the best long-run investment over the course of modern history.

> Although returns on housing and equities are similar, the volatility of housing returns is substantially lower, as Table 3 shows. Returns on the two asset classes are in the same ballpark— around 7%—but the standard deviation of housing returns is substantially smaller than that of equities (10% for housing versus 22% for equities).

> Predictably, with thinner tails, the compounded return (using the geometric average) is vastly better for housing than for equities—6.6% for housing versus 4.6% for equities. This finding appears to contradict one of the basic assumptions of modern valuation models: higher risks should come with higher rewards.

Seems the way the real estate market works has caused a big drain both on economic growth (as investments have gone into real estate rather than more productive products), and on economic equality.

So a Georgist land value tax does seem like a pretty good idea.
The perjury charges are in respect to the claim that you are authorized to enforce the copyrights on the work you claim is being infringed.

If you own the rights to a 2013 advertising jingle for yo-yo wax, and you assert that you own the rights to it while making a DMCA takedown claim against a birthday party video posted in 2010, there is no perjury. The claim that the work is infringing is not the part covered by the perjury threat.

This is why the DMCA is broken. There is no reason whatsoever for legitimate copyright holders to avoid making frivolous claims, and the burden lies entirely on their victims to prove their innocence.

Wow, as if we could press some magic button and it would pinpoint all the places where a branch condition involves user-controlled data. Of course Intel is downplaying this one to the max, the performance implications for a thorough fix are devastating.
You're moving the goalposts, but are still wrong. I don't have time to dig up the references, but there are plenty of studies showing that apes (and other animals) can develop arbitrary culturally-transmitted "taboos", with violation of those taboos provoking dissent and general politicking.

We can't speak to the depths of such a debate, because we can't participate in the debate. It's an (inter-)subjective matter for the animals involved; all we can do as external observes is be objective. But this then leads us into a categorical error: because we can describe a behaviour using objective language, we therefore decide that it in fact contains no subjectivity; eg., is not truly conscious.

We used to mis-apply this logic to so-called "inferior" human cultures, denying their humanity because we couldn't get inside their minds. This was wrong, and led to great evil. Until recently, we've applied the same thinking to animals -- but it's just as wrong. There are a shrinking number of Descartian holdouts, and I guess you're one of them. But all evidence and logic is against you.
Fair point for sure.

And this whole malady is especially common in finance departments, which are (typically) horribly documented anyway. It's all institutional knowledge, and those in that area tend to be long-term employees who don't know the difference between "things that are part of accounting and finance everywhere" and "things that are idiosyncratic to Acme Corp."

This is the #1 thing I see people confused about with IPFS. Basically, there's 3 ways for content to become available:

1. You add the files to your own node. This is how content gets added, but obviously it only lasts as long as your node is connected to the Internet, just like an ordinary HTTP server.

2. Someone views your content using their node. This causes their node to cache the content temporarily (IIRC for 30 minutes by default) and publish it to other nodes. In theory, if your content got at least one view every half hour it could live on in the users' caches forever.

3. Someone tells their node to pin your content. The node will then keep it permanently (until they unpin it) and serve it whenever it's connected to the Internet. Generally they would do this if they believe it's valuable--either because they want to keep it themselves, or as a public service to make it available to others (for example, pinning the Turkish Wikipedia to help evade censorship).

There are also several pinning services, which you can pay to have them pin your content on their node, in much the same way as you'd pay a hosting provider to serve your content.
That's not how it works though, people get hacked all the time and banks make their customers whole. You can literally leave your debit card on the street corner and you won't be liable for any fraudulent charges as long as you notify the bank of them.
The reactive form framework built into angular is everything I wish I had when working on an angularjs application.

I'm working on a new project in angular and I'm very impressed with the built-in routing support. Also, I wasn't a big fan of using rxjs Observables everywhere at first, but they are now my favorite thing about writing javascript.

I'm really looking forward to taking advantage of the service worker support as well.
When you put it like that, it doesn't sound much different than how website hosting works today.
I've never been sure what to make of that movie. The writer/director obviously know how to make a high-quality, engrossing movie, as demonstrated by everything that happens on Discovery One during the middle part of the movie. But the final segment does such a terrible job at communicating to the audience what is going on in the narrative. Did they cut a bunch of content because the movie was getting too long? Does Kubrick just not care whether the viewer can follow the story he's telling?

I took a basic falconry lesson with my dad last year. Besides being one of the coolest things I did all year, I got to learn all about the species we worked with: the Harris hawk. Native to the Southwest region of North America, they are of the only (the only?) raptors that strategize together and hunt in packs. Apparently if you introduce two groups who have never interacted before, they will play games and talk to each other for a while, and just a couple hours later go out hunting together (with their human trainers).

Also, according to our two instructors, the "universal" (read: they witnessed two Harris hawks do this independently) call for a dog or wolf, their natural predator, sounds like "Dog!"

You're talking about establishing shots. I'm talking about the intros where the ship passes by planets and things with an orchestra booming from the cosmos for what seems like several minutes. It's the exact same thing in every episode and comes after the establishing scenes in the first 1-3 minutes. This is true of every single Star Trek series post-TOS, aside from Enterprise with its cheesy theme and clips from aviation history. (I haven't seen Discovery)
I've heard mentions about the lightning network quite a lot in previous years, but never got what the implementation was. I get it it's "offchain transactions", but how does it relate to bitcoin, exactly? Is it "sidechains", like lisk (each third party managing its own blockchain), or is it simply "outsourcing" money and transactions and waiting for a general report from the trusted party to engrave it in the blockchain?
Okay, you have an alright understanding of the contemporary meaning of the term "arranged marriage" in that case. I find that sticking with contemporary parlance really helps avoid misunderstanding.

I love Nolan's films, the first one I saw was Memento when it came out. I was quite blown away.

Interstellar is (by a country mile) the film that really does it for me, and is the one I'll watch two or three times a year. The strange thing about Interstellar is that after having watched it the first couple of times, every subsequent viewing gets me fairly emotional. I never ever shed tears when watching films, and I've seen a lot of movies in my 51 or so years on this planet, but this is the one that gets me welling up inside and a bit teary eyed. So well done Mr Nolan you've managed to crack a fairly hard (film) nut.
