embed vim as their text editor

Part of that problem is that a really good IDE isn't editing text: it's editing code. One may retort "but code is stored in text files," and yes, that happens to be the primary serialization format but while it's in RAM the editor is making changes to the AST (for example)[1] and the MPS project[2] even strives to do away with "text file" façade entirely, allowing you to edit the parts that are truly editable, and just graphically render the syntatic sugar for everything else.

That distinction is relevant to the question because merely embedding vim would be problematic since the common language spoken between the IDE's mental model and vim's mental model is text, but I couldn't imagine the pain that would be involved in trying to send down the keystrokes required to update all occurrences of a variable, for example.

IntelliJ does have emacs bindings, and does have a vim plugin, but I've watched people use both of them and they suffer from the uncanny valley effect. Not to mention the fact that, and I can't stress this enough, entering character level keyboard shortcuts to change an AST is optimizing the wrong problem.

that can do something like that is emacs

I've actually spent many, many hours thinking about that very issue, and I am 100% convinced in my soul that a sufficiently determined person could in fact make Emacs as smart as IntelliJ. But the problem isn't making it that smart, it's keeping it up to date with the new bugfixes and rules. It might be possible (heh, or even preferable!) to write the AST manipulation and inspection rules using (e)lisp, but given how many developers know Java versus how many know lisps, I doubt a commercial company would bet the farm on such a thing.

Two points:

1. You write as if Uber has solved the transportation problem sustainably. The end state of an Uber job is that it will pay less than minimum wage. Why? Because the barrier to entry is the same as most minimum wage jobs (assuming you have a car made in the last 10 years) and it is more desirable than minimum wage jobs (flexible hours, no boss). The pay may look better on paper, but when all the hidden costs are accounted for it will be less than minimum wage. Uber is operating in an unsustainable bubble. Sequoia and Softbank are subsidizing your trips.

2. My guess is that if your mom was raped in an Uber and one of Travis' lieutenants got (somehow, possibly by stealing/bribing - not by asking her permission) your mom's medical records to prove to himself that she really was raped (to determine Uber liability and that it wasn't staged by a competitor), then you might feel differently in your respect and admiration for Travis Kalanick.

Is it? It looks like something you could code up in a few weeks.. just take a random brain model, make it semi translucent, then map the data inside of the model to a continuous 3d smoothed grid, and voila
> Yes and no. Was it operating in a gray area, yes.

Why is it a grey area? I don't think those laws are good but they exist. I don't believe a company's willingness to ignore laws should give them a competitive advantage because that just creates an incentive to do so.

Also, companies should not be in the business of deciding what laws are okay or not okay to disobey.

> As a frequent Uber/Lyft/Taxi user in NYC I can say that the experience for the consumer has been fantastic.

I like Lyft a lot, but I don't believe the end justifies the means. The proper way to do this would have been to change the laws first and then make the business second.
Does that the DEA will start busting shops that are legal under state law?
The car analogy is very good one. Also an infamous Samsung Galaxy Note 7 comes to mind. I agree that such security hole such warrant for a replacement.
I don't see too much problem with state controlling money creation - sovereign currency gives the latitude for deficit spending which provides opportunity to invest in future economic growth. (I have no idea why many "fiscal conservatives" have a problem with debt-fuelled capital investment by government whilst embracing it as normal and indeed good practice in the private sphere.)

But separation of finance _industry_ from state - the incredible amount of policy influence that the industry has, to its own benefit and the detriment of just about everyone else except the very rich, to the extent that many politics-industry players, on all sides, are basically representatives of banks - yes, that would be some kind of holy grail.

It is probably an ELB that fronts multiple VMs that they cycle through. Also, that is only their website. I'm sure they have more infrastructure than just the VMs that host their web app. It is quite easy to have a single unchanging IP address and constantly rotating instances behind it.

The aesthetic of suburbia is exclusion. That's what makes it less valid. It's reaping the benefits of access to the city while minimizing the number of others who can do the same. There's nothing wrong with liking solitude, but there's everything wrong with insisting that we preserve your solitude on the most central/best connected land, no matter the cost to everyone else.

SF's unoccupied blocks are pretty much built out by now. Everywhere with preexisting residents is the same: I came here because I liked the neighborhood as it is, it can never be allowed to change.

Cities aren't plopped down out of the sky fully formed. They're living organisms, built by expanding iteratively and incrementally. The city that's already been built is full. For more people to live in city, we need to make more of it. Aside from a fire or earthquake providing a clean slate, intensifying the suburbs with the best access is essentially the only way that happens.

This would be fine, except that economic growth is increasingly accruing to a handful of cities whose zoning is a big Keep Out sign.
One of the sad things is that people willing to just get a no-nonsense DRM-free MP3 of a years-old song they like for personal use (and sharing with a friend perhaps) are considered the same with those willing to get and even sell original stuff before it's even released.
It might. That happened in legalizing states prior to the policy; Rohrabacher-Farr, as long as it keeps getting renewed, legally limits this for state-authorized medical marijuana, but the effect in states with broader legalization is unclear.

I think Apple uses 'security reasons' as a cover to advance their monopolistic business models, in a way to keep their platforms locked down, and a way to extract a minimum 30% transaction osst and yearly fee for access to their walled gardens.

I'm not an eeg guy, but do fMRI. The little video on the site did not give me an indication of what makes it notable or useful. Eeg researchers create heat maps all the time over electrode points. They also look at timeseries on those electrode points.

Edit: I guess tht focus is on presenting the data as it is collected. Not sure if that is novel or not, but that is more specific than I thought at first.
Yes, it's possible, just less likely. How much less likely is hard to tell, but I if you hear hoofsteps, you first think of horses, not zebras.
RasPi + Cloudflare should be a good solution. Even live streaming is possible with CDN as live streams are just conventions with playlists and metadata. I can't comment on costs at scale, but Twitter claims equal ingress and egress bandwidth for Persicope (ie. first egress hit caches), standard HLS will just have more latency and not more cache misses if I understand correctly. My stream is 1500-2500kbps 720p.

I actually got half way through writing up a substantiating argument that JetBrains could benefit from AST manipulation and inspection written in a lisp-flavor, which would benefit both camps. But I actually don't know of a lisp with static typing, and reasonable people can differ about whether such a thing has merits, but for the purposes of this discussion, I bet trying to wire a dynamically typed language into a statically typed codebase would make everyone unhappy

Okay that makes sense. I understood it as the interface wasn't exposed to anyone that could exploit it. However they meant that no exploit methods had been developed yet.
The consumer grade EEG's you would use for this, like Open BCI, place rudimentary sensors on the scalp. There just isn't enough information from these types of sensors to give you a real look at what signals are occurring in the brain. This is a fundamentally flawed premise and is nothing more than a toy. Real brain research must be done with FMRIs or much more accurate EEG's than consumers have access to, and institutions with such advanced tech already have vis software.
I can't strictly speak on my productivity for these times, but I spend an average of 24 out of 40 hours per week focused in on my IDE, text editor, testing application, CI server, etc. My per day time fluctuates between 4 hours and 6 hours. These times include both developing and administrative tasks like managing tickets.

That's the general assumption, even though there might be another stable "island" of fairly stable isotopes for higher-order elements than observed so far. But as I said, they'd need to be created first through nuclear fusion of lower elements, so their existence is obviously less likely, let alone life forms evolving on top of them.
That's definitely not the behavior I get when I close the doors in my apartment. You should contact Eero Support about it.
Well if it means that AMD couldn't ship any x86 processors and Intel couldn't ship x86-64 (i.e. AMD64) processors, that effectively means neither of them could ship any modern x86 processors at all, so that's effectively mutually-assured destruction. If that were in any danger of happening I'd bet dollars to donuts it'd be renegotiated immediately since they both stand to lose everything.

That there's confusion between the various concepts speaks to their similarities.

Copyright and patent are both intended to encourage innovation by providing the originator with a temporary monopoly on the use of works/processes/etc. Both are frequently discussed here in the context of large corporations/publishers using them to stifle the innovation they were designed to encourage.

Trademarks are often used in tandem with copyrights to protect a body of work in different ways - while "Steamboat Willy"s copyright will eventually expire (if it hasn't already), the trademark of the Mickey Mouse character will last indefinitely (so long as Disney protects it).

Distinctive trademarks are also commonly protected by design patents. Yes, they protect the work in different ways, but the two are related in their use and concept.

If you're so against collective terms, I hereby insist that you no longer refer to the "United States", or "European" culture. But I digress.
My hypothesis is that Apple uses 'security reasons' as an excuse for their lack of dominance in voice assistants + machine learning. Siri's suggestions are virtually nonexistent compared to Google, Amazon, or even Microsoft's offerings. Siri's extensibility is entirely local, meaning that all new functions you want to develop for Siri need to be packed inside an iOS app for the user to install rather than a cloud function. Siri's 'app suggestions' to the user are also inferior, usually defaulting to the apps you used most recently.

I didn't even get that far on one video I tried to upload. I had the permissions to distribute the video (video game trailer direct from the publisher, so the entire purpose is to redistribute it), yet the upload was rejected outright with a "This video violates the YouTube ToS message" (no nudity/violence etc. either, so I can't think it should have tripped any other content filters).

Maybe try different things. Some people "don't like exercise" because they don't enjoy the gym or running. But put them on a dancefloor / skateboard / ocean beach / roller-rink / climbing wall / mountain bike / zipline / parkour course / yoga studio .... etc, and it clicks. If your form of exercise requires "willpower" to do it, that's probably not a good indicator for long-term engagement. Personally, I hate gyms but I'd go surfing even if it made me fat.
You can still do that if you're running or doing light aerobics. For lifting probably not.

Unfortunately (?) neither I nor the company claiming infringement are in the US. I think the reason they actually gave up is not for legal reasons, but because they have to abide by Youtube's terms of service in order to make claims. If Youtube kicks them out, they lose their revenue stream, so potentially serious for them.
I think it's more complicated than the author suspects.

This is not a US only issue. And it's not a developing nations-like issue (say rural to urban migration pattern).

We're seeing this in developed countries (with a few exceptions, Japan, but they also have the confounding declining pop factor). So, The UK, Germany, Sweden, China, many others are seeing similar issues to the US (SF is a special case exacerbated by politics, but I digress).

I think policymakers (and markets) have been caught off guard by this shift to the city, ironically, oftentimes, precipitated by a boom in technology and or technology rich companies, who, despite Marissa's observation, can afford and can work with a remote workforce.

This is a transformation that was not predicted. And, unless in s top-down government system (ala China, or Singapore) this kind of change in infrastructural usage change, takes multiple decades to adjust to.

No, what Sessions specifically said is it will be up to the state attorneys. In most cases their goals are aligned with the citizens who voted these laws into place.
Unfortunately I don't have time for a full response, but:

* I don't want to tax wealth at 90%, that's a straw-man, but let's use it as an example anyway

* In your extreme scenario, there would be an increased demand for food. Greater demand would increase prices. This would move the allocation of resources to food production from, say, Ferrari production. You would have more food production and poor people would eat better.

* The outcomes of taxation and other economic levers are never represented by monotonic functions. The optimal options are always somewhere "in between" the extremes, so saying "taxing at 100% doesn't work, so we should tax at 0%" is a fallacy.
There is no reason to be poor with your knowledge. Do yourself a favour and invest in good hardware, it's a matter of ergonomics, focus, health and motivation not simply economics. Usually you can get a tax writeoff and it signals to clients you invest in your own tools and professional development as well.
> Out of which some 3 billion years had to pass before unicellular forms of life evolved into multicellulars.

We might be a slow developer and poor representative sample in that respect, but without more data it's hard to tell.

> plus, not many planets could provide 3 billion years of "good weather" (or staying habitable) to start with.

I suspect the opposite will be true, red dwarfs are the most common type of star and are stable for trillions of years. Even if the average time it took multi cellular life was 30 or 300 billions years then it might not matter for life evolving there. They do come with some other caveats though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_dwarf#Habitability
Is that even possible? The data that would need to be removed from the cache has already evicted other cache lines, and that re-fetching those might have observable effects, like the timing.

This is why I am increasingly of the hub and spoke method. You create content and host it on your own, but then reupload it to various sites that fill a need (youtube/vimeo/dailymotion for video, etc). Then not only is the content when removed from one (say youtube) still there in another place/form, but it can just be reuploaded.

Own your own content, but if you seek to spread a message you might want to use closed proprietary ecosystems as long as you aren't dependent on them.

For example, I was recently updating linkedin, and went to add Bruce Schneier, but he had a post that said he never checks or uses it and only links to his website from there. He still has a presence there though, and that really hit me how much these little walled gardens we let take over so much of our compute ecosystem are starting to look like prison, even for your standard copyleft hating SV hipster.

Of course Stallman would say don't even use them, and he makes some good points, but the problem we have now is even if you have a good message you can't reach the masses without going through some priestly gatekeeper of the government-corporate media power. So you have to use the system to beat the system.
