My company pays for my rent and living expenses which allows me to save roughly 50k a year working remotely. I tried working less hours but found myself bored with going to the gym 3 hours a day and working by the pool. I'd rather be in stinky room surrounded by white boards and joking around with other devs. I found that 5-6 solid hours of productivity is better than 8-9 hours 5 days a week.
Rich people just don't know that Ethereum does this, that it's built into it.

Hmm...

Maybe there'd be a market for that?
As a german native speaker I'd tend to disagree with this. German for example has a lot more leeway for word order in its grammar than English.

Well, if you had a car, you might live further out, which lowers your cost on parking (near your house) and some of your other costs of living.
Very insightful. It's all too easy to assume there's no use for something because you haven't seen it yet. There was a time when it didn't seem like there was going to be any commercial use for the internet either.

In fact, I read a book written in back in 1914, about the history of aviation up to that point, that was talking about planes being used in WWI, and a sentence struck out at me that said something like "It's not determined yet what, or if, there is any commercial use to planes as of yet, but their use in warfare is clear."

Obviously in hindsight it's clear that there are tons of commercial uses for airplanes, but back then it wasn't proven yet, and the writer apparently didn't have the imagination to even make a prediction on it.
>So you're relying on friends/family to do the driving if you're outside of lyft/public-transit areas e.g. on vacation in a rental car

I actually have moral objections to both Lyft and Uber. Other than that I only take vacations in places where public transit is an option. For more rural vacations, I usually just ride my bike there. Plenty of fun places to bike to from where I live (Portland, OR).

Otherwise, yes, someone else does the driving. My partner and I go out of town by car once or twice a year and she drives.
Counter point. Late 30s here, family, no car, no license. I use cabs all the time, it's great. I have a fine social life and can drink safely. I can rent houses and move about for work, then change countries without offloading assets at fire-sale prices. I choose not to live in an unpleasant climate, so snow is a non-issue for me. Have you considered the option that maybe you just don't get it?

Cars are responsible for many problems including wasted space, noise, visual and air pollution, danger, and unpleasant urban space breakdowns.

The Highway and Automobile culture are symbols of totalitarian cultures which deny people more sustainable and equitable alternatives for mobility and transport - Vandana Shiva, February 19, 2004.

The reality is that most people live in dense Asian urban environments, and this trend is increasing. More and more people rely solely on public transport, and this is a good thing for society and the environment. If everyone carried on like Americans or Australians, global warming would be insane. Let's encourage pluralism and change. Cars have had their chance - the 1950s called and wants its suburban utopia back.
When I was playing with Toki Pona, a surprising amount of people were incredibly resistant to it, sometimes to the point of being upset about it, for... some reason I could never figure out. Never got a straight answer. I found the whole thing really, really bizarre.

Before anyone asks, it wasn't because I was speaking Toki Pona to them. I only speak it to friends that also know it, it's just that sometimes there are other people around.
This is just a focus group of one, but I really want to see two problems solved in email:

1) Trusted identity assertion: I want to know with confidence (at a glance) that the sender is who I think they are.

2) Secure communication: I want the visual metaphor of email (private correspondence) to match the reality of email.

How great would it be if Mozilla lead the way to for email clients to adopt open standards to do easily do these things.
Contributing to one of the largest open source projects is not a simple task at all, but you are right. However, they are asking for opinions and putting up a survey, so this may not be the place and time to start this argument.
Agreed my company is currently moving close to the center of Atlanta. It’s going to cost $15 a week to commute by train for the minimum 3 days to the office. Employee will match half so it only costs $7.50 a week out of pocket.

I own a car bet it much more feasible to ride the train and walk briefly. Parking is free and only a mile to the closest train stop.

My employers building has a free parking deck. Does Seattle not have free parking decks is some larger buildings?
That depends what the question was. If they'd asked outright whether I specifically sold the car for that reason, they no, I wouldn't. But to be honest, I suspect the survey of being designed by their PR dept to generate this result, and I can imagine questions I might have answered 'yes' to that could then be interpreted in this way.
Why jump in the way? All you need is a showstopper- a cheap chinese gadget that bounces back lidarlaserlight and radarwaves, ahead of time- thus creating the ilusion of a wall.
There have been articles over the last few years that have highlighted the dangers of idolizing and prioritizing innovation. I too hope for increased attention to craft and design of software in the future.
Why do so many geeks insist that markup is good for web documents but not for e-mail?

E-mails can benefit from headings, bulleted lists and tables just as much as a web page. It's all about communicating information in human-digestable format.

>Problem is, material in the public domain quickly becomes worthless

I wonder if Disney, which built its empire on repurposing public domain Hans Christian Anderson stories as animated films, would have agreed with your assessment.

The value of the public domain isn’t in its literal resale, nor is it supposed to be: the value is in being a direct, continuing, and explicitly legal source of inspiration for the new.
That... doesn't deserve a response. I hope you have a better day tomorrow.
Wait, so what am I thinking of? The phenomena where if you can get a website to display output of your choosing in a non sanitized way, you can abuse that to cause code to be executed by the user.
Outside of Outlook at work, I can't even remember the last time I used an actual "client" for e-mail. I use the browser interface of the couple different email services I use.

This is likely just a support/cost issue. When you leave something "open" in Windows, it has to be tested and supported and it's not as simple as "all of these things use the same protocols". So they narrowed the support strategy and focused testing on the main email services.

I see no problem with this.
> Then you invite in to the community people who have been socialised as men, have grown up as men, have spent most of their professional lives as men and who have often contributed to exactly the kind of working environment that makes womens' lives difficult as tech workers. That's defeating the whole point of a "community where the core culture [will be] set by women".

Thank you for bringing this up, I had many of the same thoughts but it was not my place to say it. I think it is important, though.
Typically above 60,000ft (FL600) is considered to be outside of a nation's airspace[1] (by ICAO at least) - which is one of the reasons why the U2 was designed to cruise at 60,000-70,000ft (FL600-FL700). The SR-71 could cruise up to 85,000ft (FL850).

So, technically and at least according to ICAO, these birds flew/fly above a nation's sovereign airspace. That doesn't stop a nation-state from attempting to down one of these birds, of course.

Years ago, after I wrote an emulator for the MC68000 (68010 actually), I suddenly became very good at coding in MC68K assembly language. Not necessarily in better in organizing big assembly language programs, but just the raw coding of small blocks of code well.
>They're using overly dramatic language like "rewiring" to talk about a different way of thinking.

I don't see the word rewiring or rewire anywhere in the article.
Tried becoming a car person once, ignoring all that math, just as a luxury. The cheapest old banger is more of a "luxury car" then a Lexus if you don't have much use for a car. Turns out it's impossible for me, cars just don't stay operational through sufficiently longs stretches of disuse.
I ended up with a pretty sweet workflow that involved hot code reloading in a Clojure web app where I rarely needed to restart the dev JVM. It involved Emacs and CIDER and designing the app’s architecture in a certain way but I felt it was really worth it. That said, if I was using a language with faster start up time then I’d have just restarted after every major change and not even worry about this, but this has some benefits that don’t exist in that scenario.
I feel like Lessig painted copyright extension as an abuse of Disney's lobbyists in Free Culture, but it's been more than a decade since I've read it; I may be conflating memories.
Not yet, but the C++ committee is hard at work at creating the next C++ revision.
Well, typescript has a full time team complete with a project manager and all.

Flow is more like a side project that is completely getting out of hand. typescript stole all of flow's best ideas and they have way more man-days to apply to problems.

These projects are hardcore. Being able to strap a type system on top of the monstruosity that is JS is very hard. On top of bug catching (this may not even be the major factor for me) it adds invaluable type documentation that remains in sync with the code to the projet; you just can't load everything in your head, models and all.
See my recent comment:

> We need model based editing environments that will allow us to have a much richer set of software building blocks.

Do you ever leave the city or go on vacation? Exploring the outdoors in the Pacific Northwest would be priority number 1 if I lived in Seattle.

You also need to factor in the freedom a car gives you. Time is the limiting factor.
" I don't see how the fact that the state rule would only render part of an arbitration agreement unenforceable, as opposed to the entire agreement (like the CA rule did), matters. "

I'm very surprised you would say that. It matters quite a lot. Rules affecting the procedure by which you get process are very different than rules as to whether you get process at all, and i'm not aware of any case ever holding otherwise.
IE a rule that says "if you have a dispute under $2000, you are always allowed to go to small claims court" is very different than a rule that says "if you have a dispute under $2000, you can't sue anyone at all".

In practice, saying things like "you may not appeal" would usually be valid limits on procedure when "you may not sue" will not be.

I mean, this is essentially saying "i don't see why whether it's procedural or substantive due process would matter".

You are citing a decision that examined whether, based on regular old public policy, you could get out of a classwide arbitration waiver. Yes, it says a bunch about how that ain't gonna happen.
It also says things like:

"In that case we held that an arbitration panel exceeded its power under §10(a)(4) of the FAA by imposing class procedures based on policy judgments rather than the arbitration agreement itself or some background principle of contract law that would affect its interpretation"

Note specifically that it's saying policy judgements cannot override the FAA. It also explicitly says background principle of contract law may affect its interpretation. One of those background principles is traditionally being state law on how contracts are interpreted and what is allowed or not allowed. In fact, that's where all the contract law they talk about is coming from. There is no federal contract law.

This seems 100% consistent with the case i cited to you, which explicitly allowed a California state contract law to affect the rules of how an arbitration agreement proceeded under the FAA.
That case is still good law from the Supreme Court, was explicitly not overruled, and appears to be exactly the kind of thing they leave open in the quoted part above, so until i hear otherwise, i'm going to go with that :)

It's 100% clear you aren't going to get out of it based on public policy.

"(Also, if there was a possible "backdoor" way of prohibiting class waivers while still complying with Concepcion, I expect California would have tried it already.)"

Last i looked, there is pending legislation on this matter, so ...
i didn't mean like a literal rural community (ok maybe a little). the internet is a big place in any case. i don't have to "win" to create a self-sustaining community of users, developers, and other creatives. my goal is to make it easier for people to play with silly mesh tech. it isn't like a super serious startup looking to make a million bucks. i mean, we'll try to make money if we can, but right now we're doing research and exploring ways to make decentralized stuff less stupid, because current-gen p2p is kind of shit tbh

we will probably fail, but its whatever at least we'll have learned something and had some fun along the way
There's also some history to it. Saxophone is a relatively new invention, dating only to the mid-19th century, well after what people think of as "classical" was mostly done. By the time classical music could adapt, it had already moved in other directions. Saxophone was adopted readily by marching bands because it's portable and loud.

Historically, "jazz" started in the 1890s in New Orleans, when black performers were first allowed to play music in public. They played what was available to them - marching band instruments. Saxophones, brass, bass drums and snare drums. String bass and piano were added as the music moved indoors. Banjo dominated the string section until the electric guitar was invented, as guitars aren't loud enough to compete with all the horns and drums.
It seems more like part of a more comprehensive bundle of services to me, not something you’d offer solo. Maybe bundle it with a service that takes EULAs and generates billet point lists of their main points?
Cert expiration dates provide very little in the way of actual security. Normally it would mean that yes, your connection is secure, yes, everything matches, but you hadn't paid your protection money to the CA racket in a while.

In my case, it's because I haven't had the desire to go in and redo the nginx config on this machine. But sure, that makes the content wrong, or something.
I wonder if the same holds true for virtual reality. Does violence in VR result in an increase in violent behavior?

SBNet: Leveraging Block Sparsity for Speeding Up CNNs
Heh. My wife & in-laws went with me to watch the Perseids in the Santa Cruz mountains. While we were there, we met a couple young women who had Ubered in from San Francisco. They got there fine, but there was no cell reception where we were, so their apps didn't work, so they were trying to find someone to hitchhike home with. We had a full car (and were going the other way) so we couldn't take them, but I hope they managed to get home safely.

I would say the prime targets have been video game streamers. They get swatted because the people calling the cops wanna see the reaction on camera / want to entertain their friends and other viewers.

Swatting is just part of the trolling "continuum" that can be traced back to less evil forms like ordering unwanted pizzas to someone's house.
You've obviously left out the people who have taken seconds on their houses, home equity lines, student loans, payday loans, and all the other forms of debt that could finance a purchase. And credit card debt alone could easily explain all the value in all the cryptocurrencies combined.
The UK's roads are an unrestricted free-for-all and the amount of time you spend in your car having to wait for people walking in the road is far short of all of it.

The roads end up mainly for traffic anyway, because people aren't dumb, and they're well aware that most drivers would prefer to kill them than make the effort to press the brake pedal. But there's no need to enshrine this in law and prevent people from crossing where they please when the road is empty, the traffic light and/or slow-moving, or the mass of people large enough.

How to Get Traffic from Facebook Groups. Learn My Secret Strategy
We are definitely making progress. But another factor to consider, in additional to the number of particles, is the energy of the system. When going through one step of a simulation you have to compute the effects that every particle has on every other particle, but generally a particle only affects the other particles near it. You can take advantage of this fact to speed up computation with the right data structures.

However, as particles start moving around faster and faster, the distance they can travel in one time step increases, and the neighborhood of effect increases, limiting the speedup of this optimization. This matters less in larger scale simulations like of weather patterns, because you don't have to worry about air molecules zipping to the other side of the continent in one second. But it matters a lot in small scale simulations, especially in cells. As an example, an average glucose molecule in one of your cells is bouncing around at around 250 miles per hour! That's not 250 miles when scaled up, that's really 250 miles per hour. A molecule in your body is colliding with another billions of times every second. (Source: http://www.righto.com/2011/07/cells-are-very-fast-and-crowde...). At that scale and that level of activity it becomes much harder to simulate each time step.
"censor" is a loaded term. Why not "forbid"? Also, what if the solution to an abusive government is not a technological tool but a plurality of governments, many of which promote (some vision of) human rights? Central power, authority is not inherently evil.
Apple is the leading device manufacturer. And Apple doesn't have a mechanism to limit screen time on their devices. There are solutions in the Android ecosystem that do that.

I think everyone needs to take a look at Evolution[^1] - it's native looking, with a clean interface, with working contacts and calendar sync.

> would have given the interviewer information about the interviewee's knowledge of: "==" vs "===" operators, .toString() and .valueOf() functions, function overriding, and object variables

Sure, the interviewer could have spent some more time to lead the interview in a more productive manner, but at the same time I'm left wondering: what does the interviewer get from answers to those questions? Do the answers say anything meaningful about the candidate's ability to write code (other than a weak-ish probably-can-code/not-a-coder signal)? What about ability to test? Design? Function as a team member? IMHO, the question wastes a lot of time building up to an aha moment, while only getting a glimpse of the candidate's ability to memorize various bits of trivia that are easy to google.

Does empowering users get the web developer paid?

I mean, in an ideal world, of course it does. But again: incentives. Keep in mind: search engines themselves are extremely empowering, and they are not generally considered to be something a person pays directly for.
