This is 100% my wife vs me. I had heard about EQ before I met her, but I never really witnessed the power of a high EQ in action until we started dating. She knew so much about me by reading my face, reactions, gestures, etc. it sometimes made me angry, like she was in my head or something. I watched as she predicted people's actions easily, or convinced people to do what she wanted just by talking to them a particular way. She really opened my eyes to the idea that maybe having a high EQ is more beneficial than a high IQ, at least in navigating life. I always considered it something people said they had because they knew they weren't smart (side note, my wife also has a high IQ, so if you're reading this honey, yes I know you're smarter than me too.)
I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. This is exactly what's happened to Seattle. http://www.seattlepi.com/seattlenews/article/What-does-it-re...

Meltdown mitigations do not flush the TLB when changing from kernel to/from user when the PCID feature is in place. That's basically everywhere from Haswell on (for Linux and Windows), and in some places as early as Nehalem (>= 4.9 kernels on Linux, not Windows).

The Commerce Clause precludes states from erecting trade barriers between each other. While Congress could in theory do so, (1) it's never to my knowledge ever used its Commerce Clause powers in that way, and (2) provisions like the Privileges and Immunities Clause creates independent prohibitions on erecting barriers between states.
I'm sorry, I didn't notice until you clarified that you suffer from actual memory issues; I assumed you were just using hyperbole as a rhetorical device. With the context clear, I see why you would want to refer to those tools as prostheses, given that they lift you to (and hopefully above) the "normal" values. And as you say, they indeed perform both augmentative and assistive functions.
This is the other way around, they are lowering the tax from 180% to 100%.

So I'm sure if there is an automakers lobby, they approve of this.
That works for technically oriented people, so maybe in this case it'd be fine. But in general configurations are avoided in end-user applications for a good reason, as they increase complexity both for developers and users.
If Emirates wasn't buying, it was actually quite possible that they would've shut down the line, and try to focus more on getting A350 orders out the door. Whatever Emirates was offering, it was a pittance, because you don't go publicly on record threatening to shut down a flagship product unless it's your best course of action.
All Tom Tunguz posts are good, this one is even better. One question though, three part tariff is proven to be best, for what cases? Given how awkward it would be if everything were priced this way, there should be a clear division.

As an European, my biggest wish for most SaaS vendors is an alternative to credit cards payments. SEPA Direct Debit or normal bank transfer after the invoice would be a godsend.

Credit cards are much more uncommon in Europe (people use debit cards, business get invoices paid through direct debit), and using credit cards for ongoing operational expenses is unheard of. This has caused a lot of friction with the accounting department of the companies I've tried to introduce some SaaS.

Usually, the solution is that one specific member of staff gets a personal corporate credit card and has to do tedious declarations and administration.
I'm in the same boat as you. I hate politics and back-stabbing environments. Why can't everybody just do what it's supposed to do in a work environment?
I am sure that is true for some people, but is it true for MOST people?

If anything, the examples you give mean that it is even more important to increase density.

This is because, for all of those reasons you mentioned, there are people who need to live in certain areas, but they can't, because they are priced out of the area!

The suburbs take up the majority of the world. If people want to live in low density areas, they can't live literally anywhere.

The problem is that the demand for high density is unfulfilled. Cities take a very small amount of space, when compared to the rest of the living space.

Thusly, there is nothing to lose. Don't want to live in a city? Then don't! You have 99% of the rest of the land to choose from.

You are probably right, they are unfamiliar with retail trade (goods) which is why they make mistakes. I wanted to point out that you shouldn’t underestimate the amount of value you bring with your data. They need to keep the majority on board of their platform but not every person individually, and not on their devices, as they might not be in it for the device sales. Pixel can be a nice platform marketing tool and a data mining tool before being a device sales profit tool. That turns their users in second class citizens while they expect to be first class citizens.

Take with a grain of salt though. Pure speculations at best. Maybe they do just want device sales.
Is compatibility more of a problem with .doc or .docx? .doc shouldn't still be evolving, I'd imagine.
If it's possible to do that, then the host scan is useless from a security perspective, as that means some sort of malware could also claim to be compliant.
And that's fine, but none of this addresses the assertion that cellphones can't work without GPS tracking.

If your SaaS already have an export option for the configuration, it shouldn't be that hard to versionize it as well. You could intercept all database calls that change the configuration and just save a copy of the current one. This can be done in many ORMs already.

> The question is, does that do them any good?

Anecdotally, I used to have a phone with a really bad battery that I couldn’t be bothered to replace, so I was constantly running out of charge. I started training myself to look up directions on google maps, then memorize the next 5-10 direction steps and compete with myself to make it to my destination with the fewest number of map checks.

I continue to do that, because it’s done a few things for me:

- it’s fun and I get personal gratification out of my improved sense of direction and orientation
- driving/riding is much more engaging because I’m paying attention to my surroundings (looking for visual queues for my location) instead of just putting on music and turning on mental cruise control
- I travel a lot and feel a lot safer when I have a mental backup of where I am, in case I run out of data or if I lose signal, which happens from time to time
- I feel less attached to and reliant on my phone

To your point, it’s something I decided is worth my time and effort, if even just for the entertainment.
awesome.. might buy rpi 1 cuz of this
Equally angering is when they set the conservation target as a percent of your previous usage.

I already conserve water, drought or not, because I'm cheap. When you tell me I'm not meeting my conservation targets because I can't go down another 20%, that infuriates me, especially since my usage is already 50% lower than my neighbors!

Young adults necessarily occupy space in a way that hasn’t yet been legitimized by the passage of much time. Populations that need to work for a living must go where there is work. Many of the consequences of this set of facts are dire and inhumane, and responsible public policy manages their impacts as best it can. A world with no new households is one that has stopped reproducing. A world where people are confined to their economically depressed birth cities is another kind of dystopian hellhole.

Half of this wouldn’t even matter if we let housing become a positive-sum game.
I had a similar 'problem' but I really don't think I am very smart. In 4th grade I was reading at the top level of the 6th graders. Other kids would call me bookworm, 'walking dictionary' and told me to 'be human!'

I did it less but certainly kept using richer words with the friends that I knew would understand.

Just recently I sent mail to a work colleague with the content

> but for whatever reason they require me to enable App and Web Usage History (or something like that) for my Google account, so I decline, as I don't want to open that can of worms.

Proof of Kitty
Now, I don't live in Denmark, but am I the only one here who wouldn't like (excessive) tax policies like that? A 180% tax (now to be lowered a bit) on a vehicle seems madly excessive.

It's like a ban, without actually having the guts to call it a ban. I'm assuming most normal people are unable to afford a car then.

I'm not a car nut (don't even really like cars, though I do own one and don't use it often) but wouldn't want to live in a country with that line of thinking. The same applies to alcohol etc. Let people be free to decide and do what they want to do.
This assumption shows how insane the taxes are
Off topic, but scroll to the very bottom of the linked page and mouseover all of the little circles.

I like that. That's slick.
People mostly, I think, believe what they want to believe regardless of intellect. Their reasons for doing so are more advanced among the more intelligent. Only when we don't care which of some mutually exclusive ideas are true do we use our intellect to decide.
That's a fair point, and it's conceivable this could work. But if the scrapers have had a legitimate source of truth in your data for a meaningful amount of time before you pull the trigger on this, it will get significantly harder.

In practice I'm talking about data which is very multidimensional and has more nuanced metrics than something like a price point. As an example, let's say a certain company exposes sequentially crawlable online orders without authentication. A scraper is going to reason about the data instead of just accepting it, and it's going to look for relatively minute errors. In particular, if it suddenly pulls in many more orders in a single day, or if a particular product shoots up in popularity, or if the price of an item in inventory suddenly changes from what it was historically, an alert will fire off.

As a real world example, I was working on a project to scrape all orders for a publicly traded fast food company that offered online orders and delivery. In the middle of one quarter, without warning, we suddenly saw activity that looked legitimate, but noticeably different order data occurring in a way that significantly increase revenue projections. My colleagues and I basically didn't trust the data whatsoever until we could find a localized (and not well publicized online) promotion that accounted for the changes.

Basically, I'm saying that it can be done, but it's hard and not a silver bullet. If the data is being used as part of a timeseries, then data meaningful enough to disrupt operations if going to be noticed and manually reviewed to identify a narrative that explains it; if the data is believably false but not meaningful enough to change a trend, it's not really going to matter to them anyway.
I was quite surprised to click through and read that this is a decrease and not an increase in the tax rate on cars. Which makes me wonder: What about the Danish political climate enabled the original 180% rate to make it into law?
The init.js file is huge and I suspect they don't cache it server side. I wrote an alternative version which loads faster, but the interesting data (water usage) is obviously available only from the City of Cape Town's server and it delivers the map in one giant png file. At least the aerial map is now cached tiles from another server.

Mulvaney Requests Zero Funding for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
That’s what is happening with a lot of my millennial coworkers. Once they have kids, they move from the hip area of town, to the bland suburbs with decent schools.
What (most) people don't understand is that these kids are not trying to impress! It comes naturally to them and telling them that just contributes to isolate them even more. Being an outlier is already a lonely place.

In the end you can only communicate with people at the same intelligence level (or whatever you want to call it) as you.
TLDR Registration duties of up to 180 percent mean Denmark is one of the most expensive countries in which to buy a new car.

Proposal to lower tax rate to just 100 percent. Currently a Porsche 911 Carrera sports car is $306,600 versus $117,900 in Germany.

"We will still have some of the highest car prices," Economy Minister Simon Emil Ammitzboll told a press conference in Copenhagen on Tuesday. At the same time, it’s "not fair that we, living in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, are driving worse cars than our neighbors in Sweden and Germany."
I wouldn't call the snap build process for Electron apps backwards:

The Trump Administration Abandons Science Advice--but at What Cost?
I think there are just a lot of intangibles so it's hard to compare mega projects, like the existing state of the subway where it is integrating into (like extensions), how many stations are being added, cost of labor, etc. I think comparing dozens of similar projects like the cost of replacing one street light, overpass or kilometer of highway from a non-US project, or even better within a single city in the same country, would be more informative.
I mean it probably should not blow up your browser altogether.

I'm sure a large portion of that (myself included) would strongly consider coming back if there were opportunities like HQ2 in Canada.

I haven't personally used any of them, but I would have to assume at least one of them does since most hosting providers support both BE and Java (though not on the same server, one could dream...)

I personally have a JE server hosted through a company that I play on. I like the ability to have server-side plugins (through Spigot) and being able to back up my world automatically offsite.
A perfect example of this is the Hot Pockets deal.

Some guy made a cookie session middleware called node-yummy, which eventually became a dependency of Express.
Express has a bajillion downloads, so yummy up and brokered a deal by which on every install they tweeted a like for Hot Pockets.
So, Hot Pockets really started soaring, with no one having any idea what they were tweeting by installing and updating Express, until someone ruined all the fun by posting it on Medium, and getting picked up by HN [2]

IMO the really not acceptable part is that the open souce projects are not being pulled from Github. When something claims to be open source, we should have a gaurantee from NPM that we can see the source.

Theres several reasons why LA is a good choice. As you mentioned Hollywood and Amazon's push into original content. Amazon is also pushing heavily into gaming, and So Cal is one the best areas for this. Amazon's biggest fulfillment centers is in So Cal. Access to ports along the coast. LA is dumping billions into public infrastructure with the Olympics and measure M. LA has a lot of good schools in the area, USC, UCLA, Cal tech. LA is very forward in terms of govt policy, look at Elon's Boring Company as an example. If Amazon ever wants to get serious about Drone delivery I imagine LA would be perfect for this. On top of the other reasons of its proximity to Seattle and Asia.
Anecdotally, I've found the opposite. People who are smart tend to be good at lots of things.
I wonder if negative emotions are largely driven by pessimistic interpretations of reality, which then create a self-fulfilling cycle.

Perhaps one way to break the cycle is to demonstrate and maintain empirical results well beyond expectations, decreasing the validity of the pessimistic interpretation.
Thanks for the additional info. ianal but I think you are screwed as far as trying to challenge their right to the invention. They surely had you assign all IP created in the course of your work to them. They can proceed with a filing even without your consent or help (although they are going to much prefer to do so with your assistance and good will).

btw as an aside : how can someone work in this industry and _not_ know this? I'm not questioning your sincerity but I mean why isn't everyone handed a short pamphlet to read when they get into this business that explains this stuff?

Anyway, back to your situation : based on what you have said I'd suggest going to your management and asking if they would be interested in commercializing your invention as some sort of joint venture or spin-off company. They would provide your company with a license in exchange for, say, equity. In return they would get to enjoy your full and enthusiastic participation in the patent filing and defense process. Worth a try.
The fact that Denmark does not have a car industry has played an important role.
