I'd imagine this is the easiest solution for improving mission flexibility.

If the only rules are "only accelerate away from the nearest star", that doesn't preclude using a planetary gravity field to also adjust your orbit.

E.g. Making small course corrections in interstellar space (or simply mission planning exactly enough) so that you hit a planet's gravity well on insertion into the destination solar system, thereby slinging yourself into a more manageable eliptical orbit (and potentially burning something else at the right point to change your orbit)

I'd also be really curious on how something like this works in the area of interaction between a planetary magnetosphere and the "sail" (e.g: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetosphere#/media/File%3A... ). Looks complicated!
What other good employers do you have in mind?
There’s no rule in capitalism about who wins: the consumer decides who wins when she purchases a producer’s product, picked from the store shelf. The producers of the products we purchase are those who survive, because their income is our expenditures (and their expenditures on wages/salaries is our income).

You could argue that we choose wrong when we go shopping, but ultimately we decide which businesses have an income and which don’t.

I agree with your point on increasing employment, but I disagree as to the "interest of society".

There is no one interest of society. Even defining prosperity is relative to who is talking. Having the wealthy subsidize the prosperity of the poor is not very prosperous for them.
All the chat's participants get a notice that the new member joined. Every time they've ever joined a group, that's been the behavior. They've never gotten a "yes/no" dialog for new group members (it's hard to see how that would even work in practice). I think the behavior here is in fact pretty obvious.
Thanks for the feedback. We'll make that more clear on the site.

> Please state the fact: programmers are not trained, nor have the time to go far enough asking the questions.

Speak for yourself, bub. I ask questions all the time when I write software.

Usually, when I write software for someone other than myself, I have these things called "functional specifications", which is how I know if the thing I wrote does what the person I wrote it for expects. Sometimes those are in a big, boring document that some corporate department insisted we write in advance, other times they're in the form of "user stories", depending on how the people I write software for like to do their planning. But either way, I ask questions and try to figure out what they want, and I do it because I'm the skilled person who has to try to do that. And asking those kinds of questions is part of the job, unless you're making something for yourself or if you have no customers.

And if you want to talk, maybe you shouldn't insult all programmers everywhere by suggesting they share your lack of skill when it comes to talking to people.
How did you measure the performance hit? And what version of Elastic did you test?
Tim Hortons is a shitpile. I worked in one once...for a week....just after highschool, I left when A&W called me back to offer me a job. As crappy as A&W was, Timmy's was so much fucking worse. The pay was crappier, the work was harder, they didn't supply me with a uniform, they made me use one from the dirty uniform bin, my breaks were not paid as it was, I got no benefits and there was zero hint of any future benefits. The schedule was ridiculous and illegal, they had people working opening shifts right after graveyard shifts, they gave even the people who'd been there for years less than 32 hours effectively making them part time employees. The owner of that particular location also owned a Wendy's, he would make his employees work at both of them without a proper working agreement. Right around the time I worked there was also when Claus, the owner, began bringing philipino workers in on visas, keeping them in homes he owned and deducting rent and expenses directly from their pay cheques. Which is fairly illegal. The last time I was in either of his establishments all his workers had been replaced by them.

I really try not to support Tim Hortons. Also their coffee sucks and their food is frozen garbage.

Cars as a secondary transport are fine. In NYC I take a cab / lyft once in a while, but it's like 3% of my trips.

Delivery trucks are, or course, incredibly important in a city. But they are also much more efficient than cars moving 1-2 people, so they need a bit less road capacity.

Also, city traffic is pretty favorable for electric vehicles with recuperative braking, so the coming crop of city buses and delivery trucks is going to have a significant portion of all-electric or hybrid vehicles. This helps the air pollution problem.
When Atom makes serious changes to APIs, they find all published packages using those APIs and notify the authors that things are changing. Often the notification arrives as a pull request implementing the needed changes, along with an apology and an explanation of why the changes are necessary. It's impressive.

You need to re-do a proof of control periodically, in normal use it will be for each renewal. So yes, you'd need to do the juggling to sort out a new TXT record every time.

For what it's worth I believe Let's Encrypt would happily follow your redirect to the HTTPS site, so long as within a reasonable number of steps you give it the answer it was looking for, the redirect isn't a problem. It also doesn't check certificate validity (after all, it's doing validation, that would be a chicken-and-egg problem) for the redirected HTTPS connection. But just serving the answer directly works fine and is probably more future proof.
With the advent of standardized web component libraries, design frameworks, css grids, and website builders; the task of building a simple website feels more like assembling the pieces of a puzzle. It's hard to know how long innovations in web development will outpace automation / deep learning, but it's an interesting space to follow.

Personally, I think bespoke web application development will be a strong area of innovation for many years to come as browsers and devices continue to increase in power. I'm more worried about keeping up with the fast pace of change than the entire industry drying up.

Bitcoin is very much inspired by git; though in terms of immutability it's more similar to mercurial and subversion (git push -f)

Git accepts whatever timestamp a node chooses to add to a commit. This can cause interesting sorts in terms of chronological and topological sort orders.

Without an agreed-upon central git server there is not a canonical graph.

You can use GPG signatures with Git, but you need to provide your own keyserver and then there's still no way to enforce permissions (e.g. who can ALTER, UPDATE, or DELETE which files).

Git is a directed acyclic graph (DAG). Not a chain. Blockchains are chains to prevent double-spending (e.g. on a different fork).

Bitcoin was accepted by The Linux Foundation (Linus Torvalds wrote Git):

This is a very easy position to take when you're part of the group that can easily become an "automator". I want to be entirely on the side that you describe here, but I simply can't ignore the negative quality of life that this will (and has been) imposing on a large proportion of society. This group is casually waved away; "just get a higher education", "just move to where the jobs are", "don't have to take care of your grandchildren because your children fell into opioid abuse because of the lack of opportunity even if you (currently) have a job", "take family-breaking commutes to better jobs in areas where the public transportation is poor or nonexistent".

The "free market" doesn't give a crap about these folks ... just like nature doesn't care when an ecosystem is affected by the arrival of some new invasive species. If there ain't no food, you starve. That may be fine for the local rabbit population, but we have to watch out and help our fellow human ... we're not savages.

edit: To be clear, as an "automator" myself, I obviously have a vested interest in this trend continuing. I'm obviously not saying that we should become the proverbial luddites and stop automation. But we do need to get better about making sure that humanity keeps marching forward one way or another.
Well if they didn't change the socket every year...

Realistically though, they might be able to do it for cpu's that aren't soldered on (think just about every laptop) made in the last year or two, but would they really fab new versions of 10 year old cores? Its not like many of those lines are even running anymore, so they would basically have to redesign/layout and reverify everything.

Probably easier/cheaper just to send everyone a new machine.

To add a bit of context to the second link (a comment I made): the core patching algorithm in nerv is based on the patching algorithm from ivi, a library that was created by Boris Kaul (creator of several benchmarking tools used by virtual dom authors) as an exercise in making the fastest virtual dom possible.

It popularized the prefix/suffix algorithm used in most vdom libs today, and in addition, it's one of the only ones that use a LIS algorithm to further decrease the number of DOM changes in complex DOM reordering scenarios. Ivi also does a ton of other micro-optimizations.

Seeing that ivi was part of their research material tells me that this library's perf claims have a least some foundation to back them up.
Even though it might in theory have been the best default for end-users, in practice they made DNT fail as a result because advertisers wanted users to make an explicit choice instead of getting opted out by default. It's easy to blame the advertisers here, and sure.. you can argue that in this scenario they were the 'more evil' ones, but had Microsoft not made this choice, we ultimately could have ended up with a respected DNT header, which later on could have become a default anyway.

So I don't disagree that the decision might have come from a good place, but the end-result was not hard to predict and was ultimately not in the interest of users. It was incredibly dumb.
So would a whitelist of providers/ip's be sufficient? Whitelists can be much easier to maintain.

With regard to B, at least in the DC area it is all dried up and agencies are climbing the value chain in one or both directions:

- As a communications/marketing/PR agency who provides the website as a component of a larger campaign. Many of these folks are already using platforms like Wix, Squarespace, etc., or Wordpress with purchased templates.

- Doing more complex site development that requires a lot of IA work and institutional change management. For example: migrating ancient federal HTML websites (yes some still exist) to Drupal.

Like anything your perception is skewed by the circle that you live in. Everyone that I know is very interested in conservation. My family votes national and are farmers and put a lot of effort into managing their stock and planting around their waterways. My friends are all urban and vote green or labor, they also put in a lot of effort into the environment.

Everyone I know recycles, uses eco and environmentally friendly products where they can, etc. People who I know who fish always fish within the allowed limits and quotas. My grandmother told me over Christmas that she was never going to use another plastic bag.

So, in my opinion, the country is very eco minded, but that sample is skewed because it's only my friends and family. I did meet someone at a party a few years ago who said she just threw her rubbish over the fence onto a council reserve because she was too busy and lived a too important life to bother with dealing with it. There are also people who regularly get caught taking too much paua, or catching underage fish, etc. So obviously they're out there, how prevalent people with disregard to the environment are I don't know, as I said I live in my own bubble.

It could be that people in the UK are more environmentally minded than here, but that wasn't my experience when living there. It could be that they're not but the people that you've met in both countries have simply given that impression.

Someone has probably done a study somewhere.
Yes, numerical error breaks the symmetry. It could be as small as the rounding error due to finite precision, but most likely a few orders of magnitude bigger thanks to errors in the numerical method.

In reality, even if you can manage perfectly symmetric initial and boundary conditions, thermal noise would still cause this symmetry breaking.

Since these systems are physically unstable, the source of initial perturbation is unimportant as long as it is small.
I think you're missing the point a bit. It's not about our choice as consumers so much as it is the inevitable end of capitalism as a way of distributing property.

Will your schedule support working day trips? Meaning, a flight leaving early enough to be wheels down by 9 AM at the destination, then a flight out around 4-5 PM on the same day? Do you have plans for working with a rental car service at the private terminal?
It was and I was surprised at how far the costs of houses in that range had come down. I guess the balance of the cost of work needed, essentially then pushed them back into the proper range. As you noted, the upkeep would've killed me.

I ended up with a 2500 sq ft mid century modern that was in rock solid condition that I got for a steal. I haven't had to do anything substantial in the last five years. Some things will be due in the next three years (windows and HVAC) but otherwise, it's been easy to maintain.
I think the value prop is cheap fares without booking weeks in advance and fast checkins at the private terminals.

I agree, TSA is awful, so hopefully our solution will be more resolve this issue.

Nobody is claiming the labor market will be destroyed.

> Once a particular kind of work becomes worthless another will replace it.

Yes, but the question is if the new jobs will pay, in aggregate, as much as the jobs that disappeared:

"Aggregate wages will be reduced if workers are substituted for technology without new jobs of equivalent worth in aggregate wages being created elsewhere in the economy."

> I am wary of the people who feel the need to try and prevent the correction by way of government regulation.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean here. The only way to prevent the correction(s) is to prevent the automation(s).

There are many ways we can make the correction(s) less painful. We can provide funding for re-training. We can provide unemployment benefits. We can provide basic income.
Also consider that if you want airline-like regularity, you need an IR (Instrument Rating), which is sometimes (usually?) harder and more expensive than the PPL itself. Then you want to consider if you want to fly your family in IMC (Instrument Meteorological Conditions) at night. Many people including me would only want to this is a twin engine aircraft or at least an aircraft equipped with a ballistic parachute (this means a Cirrus SR22 or similar). Anyway, both options is at 2-4x the cost of a the typical $130/h rental.

Not as of a big issue in CA, but in the winter, you also probably want to cruise above the freezing level, so add to this a FIKI (Flight Into Known Ice) certified aircraft. Again, more $$$.

In the end though, flying your own aircraft is an immensely gratifying experience on many levels, and despite all of the caveats above, I wholly recommend getting your PPL.

Yes, with just your PPL in hand, you might have to wait out some weather or choose conditions based on your experience and equipment, but as long as you know those limitations, it's actually not a big deal, especially in California.
It's true that society has no particular interest. An ascetic might take issue with increased social prosperity, as would, for entirely different reasons, a workhouse owner.

It's not a paradise, but it's a city where you can live nicely without a car, and without a slightest desire to own it. Public transportation (non-ideal as it is) and the occasional uber / lyft / cab trip cover the needs of daily commute. Also, walking is easy, and a lot of things are within an easy walking distance, not only on Manhattan but also in most of Brooklyn and Queens.

I had Ada as part of the core curriculum, just so we're clear.

And being part of the cracking / demo scene, I grew up writing in MOS 6502 and MC68000 moving on to UltraSPARC assembler, so I just might know a thing or two about typing and what it actually translates to at the machine level.

But, hey, barring suddenly landing a job working on SmartOS / illumos, that's also why I want to exit the computer industry: someone always isn't convinced and they think they know it better than I do. If I get out, anybody can not be convinced and know better for all I care at that point.

Automation is not a new phenomenon, it’s what has been making us wealthier for the past century and a half.

Labor share actually went up for 1950 to 1970, and I don’t think increases in automation were absent in that period: http://www.macleans.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/fredgraph_...

> "the ones overused were not useful for humans so resistance isn't actually a factor"

First of all, that's not true; there's substantial overlap between agricultural and human use, for example the Bacitracin we use in the U.S. to promote growth in livestock, and the colistin now flooding Chinese agriculture.

Second, it wouldn't matter even if you were right; bacteria acquire resistance to classes of related antibiotics. So, for example, when bacteria become resistant to the fluoroquinolones that we regularly put in poultry feed in the U.S., those bacteria will likely be immune to Cipro when they infect you.

Any plans on allowing "plus one" guests? For example, a subscriber may use the service for $WORK most of the time, but occasionally the SO may tag along by paying a one-time ticket, perhaps at a slight premium.
"IMO, there will always be work that needs doing."

You misunderstand the dynamics. The amount of work to do is infinite. But at any given price point the amount of labor that will be hired to work is finite. The price (the wage) for that work is effected by supply and demand. If the demand falls, then the price of labor (the wage) must also fall.
>Buying a house all cash is not the way to do it.

It's _a_ way to do it though. My argument isn't that buying a house with the cash is the optimal way to spend it, simply that having a house fully paid for is a massive financial burden taken off one's shoulders.

In Australia where a typical house can easily sell for $800K-$1M AUD in desirable locations, the repayments on a mortgage (or rent) can be crippling. I would be more than happy for that to be a non-issue for me!
I'm right there with you, I have no desire to encourage their sloppiness by buying more of their products. My inclination now is to just have the batteries replaced in my devices and not purchase new ones to the extent possible.

However, I still don't seriously believe anyone else is making better products than they are, so I also don't have a desire to "switch". This is part of the reason Apple is able to get away with such sloppiness.
