He suffers from the affliction, that, having mastered programming, all other domains of human endeavour must be as reducible to simple logical constructs, and the world just needs him, to come and show how simple it really is.

It’s crazy how many think they have a monopoly on intelligence by virtue of being able to tell the machine what to do.

That is exactly backwards - ale yeasts are so-called "top-fermenting", prefer higher temperatures, and typically finish faster. Also, there is typically no oxygen available during fermentation beyond what is dissolved in the wort to begin with. Any oxygen in the fermenter's headspace is quickly pushed out by the yeast's CO2 production. The dissolved oxygen is quickly consumed by the yeast.

That said, I believe many breweries have figured out rapid lager production processes and are able to turn around lagers in about the same time as ales.

"Doomsday Clock #3" is out today from D.C. comics.

It's a mega event that crosses characters from Alan Moore's The Watchmen with more traditional D.C. characters like Batman and Superman. I'm enjoying it quite a bit even though its exploitative and somewhat tarnishes the legacy of the greatest comic book of all time.
SQL as a language is simple and easy. It's applying it properly for a relational algebra of a database which makes it far more complicated.
This is pathetic. It's not even a "doomsday" clock, it's a "a couple of random countries go to nuclear war with each other while the rest of civilisation watches and cleans up after they're done" clock.

Sure, it'd be remembered in history books forever and up to hundreds of millions would die but this wouldn't even register on a "doomsday" scale.

> What happens when the commuter I pick up vomits in my car?

You clean it up and make a decision about whether you'd pick them up again.

> Or steals something from my car?

You call the police and tell them who that person is and where they live.

> What happens if I get picked up by a person who changes their mind about where they're going?

You tell them to drop you off and you don't ride with them again.

> Or decide to take an unplanned detour to go to the store

If you're fine with it, you go along with it. If you're not find with it, see above.

> or back home to grab the laptop they forgot

See above.

> or to score some heroin?

If you like heroin, ask them to pick you some up too. If not, see above.

> What happens when the driver gropes me?

Get out, report them to the police, don't ride with them again.

> Or I grope the driver?

Please don't do that.

I would refer to acemarke's comment above. It's not gospel to have to use redux for all your state. I prefer to separate my state into tiers conceptually.

Think of the classic case showcase of redux being used with immutable structures to implement a page-wide undo easily. There's a certain amount of state that could be burried deep in components that doesn't need to be in the global redux store.

Sure, your undo might not now be an exact representation of the historical state of the page, but the state that counts is still re-created, and that's the state that you can decide to put into redux.

> What happens when the commuter I pick up vomits in my car?

Guess you have to use some of that hard earned ridesharing money to deal with the occasional downside such as this. It's not just free money, and anyone that thinks in terms ot cash for ride and that's the only things to think of is naive. You've thought it these scenarios, other people should too, and take that into account when deciding if it's worth it.

> Or steals something from my car?

File a police report.

> What happens if I get picked up by a person who changes their mind about where they're going?

Let them out at the first feasible opportunity, as long as there is some infrastructure (or they accept the location). Let them deal with finding transport from there.

> Or decide to take an unplanned detour to go to the store, or back home to grab the laptop they forgot, or to score some heroin?

Let them out as above, they can secure additional transport on their own.

> What happens when the driver gropes me? Or I grope the driver?

File a police report.

> You absolutely need actual support, it's not going to be minimal-to-zero. Both the driver and the passenger need to be able to pick up a phone number and speak to a real human being who can resolve some sort of issue.

You do need support, but clear and up-front expectations can reduce that quite a bit. I agree Google is horrible at this, and hasn't shown themselves as able to supply even the minimal amount of support I noted above.

I'm honestly surprised that Google doesn't create separate companies to handle actual product sales (and keep the Google name for the product if they feel the need) just to get past this horrible part of their culture. They just can't support anything adequately. Then again, we keep using their products even with this crappy support, so it's not like the market is punishing them enough to make them care. :/

A clock is such a terrible metaphor. It only moves forward. And it moves forward despite any actions humans take. If anything, it is slightly better suited for climate change.

What they should be doing is providing a confidence level of nuclear war, eg 3±2% chance of nuclear war in 2018.

Furthermore, conflating nuclear apocalypse with other existential threats to humanity (climate change, disease, asteroid, gamma ray burst, vacuum decay, etc.) is at best confusing. I guess a general "5% chance irrevocable extinction event begins in 2018" would have some value, it would be far better to report on individual extinction vectors so we can prioritize countermeasures.

I remember maybe 20 or so years ago, reading about how Japanese tourists visiting America would tend to look at landmarks through their camera lens rather than looking at it for real. It was considered a bizarre phenomenon at the time and the theory was that they found it more 'real' to look at through their technology than seeing it with their own eyes.

I remember finding it really fascinating and strange, and now such a thing is so normal. I completely agree that no one ever watches those videos, but it appears that capturing the experience has become in many cases more important than the experience itself.
Yes, but money in the future is valued at a discount today. So even if an asset is 100% sure to be worth $100 a year from today, the market will value it at slightly less than that because there's no sense tying up $100 in capital for a year unless you get some profit in return.
That is just one kind of digital marketing. Getting traffic to a site is not the same thing as getting a business to buy a product. And selling a SaaS product is different then selling a service or a physical device. Every different goal has different channels that will work, different audiences, and thereby needs different marketing plans.

To really understand digital marketing, you first need to understand marketing in general, and then learn how to apply it to digital channels.

California Needs to Keep Its Millionaires
Hi! Nice to meet you.

I think (some of) what the FBI is asking for lately is actually not that unreasonable -- assuming we could do it right. Chris Wray, like Comey before him, is claiming that they only need a way to get into a few selected devices in "exceptional" circumstances for criminal investigations. Whenever the FBI/DOJ guys argue this point, they also make sure to say nice things about the value of encryption for protecting the public.

Do they really believe the nice things they say? I have no idea, but for now I'm willing to take them at their word for the sake of the debate.

Do they really want only a limited ability to access encrypted data? Again, I don't know.

But suppose we could construct a truly limited mechanism that would give them the ability to recover only a small amount of encrypted data. Then we could call their bluff. If they still want more, they'd have to make the case to the public that they should have the all-seeing power that our community claims they're trying to get.

We have some early work along these lines. I gave a talk about it at Enigma last week. https://www.usenix.org/conference/enigma2018/presentation/wr...
Data portability is certainly an important issue here to consider here given the points you mentioned. When adopting a vendor, the relevant question is "How much work is it to get data in?". And when planning for the contingency of vendor loss, the question is "How much work is it to get the data out?".

The first question is tied closely to the interfaces provided by the database, and those interfaces are usually commensurate with the associated tooling. In the case of time series databases, they include statsd, collectd, and good old JSON. Relational databases utilize SQL as expected. Take the example of migrating from Oracle to Postgres; you shouldn't have to spend an inordinate amount of retooling your applications because the data interfaces are similar.

Data egress is similar; SQL databases generally provide SQL/CSV exports, and most TSDBs (the good ones at least) allow you to get the data out via JSON through a REST interface.

Whether or not the DB you choose is open source, or from a small vendor, you should pick the right tool to solve your problem with data portability in mind. (disclosure, I work for http://irondb.io, and have used Postgres for 18 years)

They don't feel the same to me at all. While meditating I try to keep my mind energized (not sleepy) while attempting to be aware of of the moment, my breath, and the stray thoughts which although I'm aware of I let them go. My mind is energized but quiet and without thoughts (if I'm successful, which I'm often not, that's ok), a state few in this world spend much time in.

In contrast when I pray I'm often judging the past and planning the future. The first 2 points you mentioned are specifically reinforcing these habits. Meditation gives me a time to practice not constantly dwelling on the past or the future, which if we're not careful we spend most of our lives doing; meditation is merely a time to practice breaking this thought habit.

Not to say one is better than the other though. I just wanted to express my opinion that meditation is much different than prayer according to my own understanding. Granted there are a variety of definitions and understandings of both words.

Well, per Steve Yegge's original post, it's distribution in general. My understanding of his general argument is that when distribution is controlled by Amazon, everybody buys everything from Amazon. When distribution is controlled by thousands of independent drivers, everybody buys everything from thousands of independent businesses (like the couple selling food out of their kitchen that he mentioned) and the cost of starting a small businesses goes way down. For a related argument that vertical integration, especially with respect to distribution, leads to homogeneity, see www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2018/01/craft-beer-industry/550850/

I looked into SQLite a while ago, and it wasn't so much its robustness that was the deal-breaker, but more the fact that it couldn't handle writes from parallel processes from multiple users (i.e. concurrency) like a normal SQL database could.
