The shoe analogy is great.

It isn't perfect because in finance everyone's goal is to make money so it's a little more complicated, but there are similarities.

You might have a situation where ex-ante both parties are making the right decision, but one party would have rather not traded ex-post.

I might have some oil exposure so I want to sell oil futures. Maybe you think oil is going up because it's above some moving average so you show me a better market than the exchange for my size. We trade. If a minute later oil is higher than I will have wish that I waited a minute to sell and you'll be glad that you bought.

I'm not saying it's zero sum because we both willingly went into the trade and it's even possible that you'll make money on a 1 minute time frame and I'll make money on a 1 year time frame or I'll receive some other benefit.

This would happen all the time in a product that I used to trade at a non-bank financial firm. I had one way of valuing it and the banks had another way. We'd trade when we disagreed.

Ex-Googler warns coding bootcamps are lacking in two key areas
Days since a cryptocurrency exchange has lost more than $100M
Well, one objection could be that much of the information about the ancient civilizations has been lost, whereas it is highly improbable that a person could add anything to the knowledge about the modern world to a future historian or a linguist.
If anyone's wondering, that's a 104⅙ grosses.
I'm not sure why you're being downvoted for stating facts. This is a well-known theory for when the US government chooses to intervene in other countries' affairs.
Go was taken by ancient China before that.
That is a good question. I'm not sure how well I will be able to put it into words, but I'll give it a go! For what it is worth, I have a grain farm, so my perspective comes from that type of operation.

A big one is simply the breadth of the subject matter. To me it feels like learning to program, forgetting everything, and repeating several more times. You have to know about plants, chemicals, machinery, computer technology, business, just to name a few. I don't think you need to be a expert in any of those things, but it seems to me like the most successful farmers approach being that.

Every year is different. If you've built one CRUD app, every CRUD app is going to come with a similar set of problems. If you've grown one field of corn, who knows what next year will bring? I've been farming for more than a decade now and I still encounter situations that I've never seen before. Luckily, which makes it much less of a challenge, but might be interesting being that I'm the sixth generation to work my family's farm, I can ask family for advice and you get the "Well, back in '72 it was like this and we did that." Still, there is lots of problem solving to do. In that respect, it is a lot like programming.

What is not not like programming is an answer for everything on the internet. I truly miss that. While programming, if I have any kind of mental block, a few minutes on Google will turn me right around. On the farm, family is an amazing resource, and there are plenty of academic and other professionals available to be contacted, but it's not the same. Programmers are incredibly fortunate!

I'll just throw in that farming constantly makes me feel dumb. Still, after a decade at it. Not very quantitate, I know, but it's a feeling I have never experienced in the same way as a programmer. I'm sure I could go on, but I have to move on to other engagements. I hope you found this interesting.
High end malls in the GTA are the only ones expanding currently as well. Yorkdale and Square One are pretty much complete with their massive new buildouts.
It also comes up in STEM education content. For example, industrial dust explosions could be a good illustration of several principles (including the importance of surface to volume ratio), but... there are potential downsides to using it. More generally, STEM education remains innocuous only as long as it pervasively fails. If that ever changes, society will have some issues to decide. And not a great track record of handling similar ones. Even a simple matrix of "what do you get when you mix one common household material with another" has some "seriously: don't do that" nodes.
I'm not sure religion correlates that well. Countries like Italy are the centre of the catholic faith but have high education and low birth rates, sub saharan Africa is kind of the opposite.
> Isn't this exactly what you would expect from something pleasant and rare? If you just want to make an area more affordable, you should make it less pleasant.

I was a teenager in 1992 in a part of Chicago getting gentrified, and I recall socialist activists literally telling kids not to pick up litter for this reason.

They had a point...
You start with “the safest thing is..” then suggest property, only if they have knowledge of what prices are reasonable.

Doesn’t sound safe. Index fund would probably be safer. Or savings account.
It's a myth that some particular kind of development will increase affordability.

It's plainly obvious that an increase in the supply of available housing increases affordability of housing and a decrease similarly decreases it. And similarly with demand.

Not everything has it's price determined by the blunt cudgel of supply and demand but things that are needed to live clearly do.
Olá Sócrates,

Esse fórum não é virado para discussões específicas ao desenvolvimento do Ubuntu, e a grande maioria dos participantes aqui não são desenvolvidores do Ubuntu. (Alguns são usuários do Ubuntu, mas nem todos!) Além disso, a língua desse fórum é o inglês e os participantes não aceitam nenhumas discussões aqui em outros idiomas.

Para receber uma resposta mais útil, eu sugeriria o seguinte:

(1) Procure identificar mais especificamente o que não funcionou para você no Ubuntu 16.04 (por exemplo, mensagens de erro, logs, etc.). Se não pode entrar no servidor e não tem acesso físico, talvez o host pode ajudá-lo a conseguir acesso ao conteúdo do disco rígido para baixar os logs. Sem isso, ninguém será capaz de usar suas experiências para melhorar o sistema, porque a possibilidade do sistema simplesmente "parar" não fazia parte da intenção dos desenvolvidores... mas com certeza, eles precisam saber exatamente porque (ou em quais circunstâncias) parou para consertá-lo.

(2) Em vez de enviar seus comentários ou dúvidas para esse fórum, envie-os para o fórum Ubuntu-BR disponível em http://ubuntuforum-br.org/, já que é um fórum em português dedicado ao assunto, e conta com uma comunidade ativa que gosta de resolver problemas com o Ubuntu.

Boa sorte!
Isn't mixed use the norm for Asia? Even (or especially) the poor will live near shops where they can buy things.
If it is mutual and they know they have potential liability you can push some. If you keep it professional you can likely get 3-6 months depending on what type of issue there was.

I’d really suggest asking an employment attorney as they’ll have a good idea what the issue is worth. For example, let’s say you are a protected class and they discriminated against you. That claim and the cost to defend it costs X, if you ask for Y and agree not to pursue them further than you’ll be in good shape assuming Y is within reason to X. If they have a counter claim there would be a reduction in the total amount but still worth settling.

Hopefully that helps you some. Good luck! Sorry you had an issue, it sucks.
I think all of these analyses contain a critical flaw in that they ignore the effect of evolution. Any characteristic that increases reproduction rates that is passed down to the next generation, whether that characteristic is cultural, location-specific, or genetic, will eventually become the majority. (And yes, cultural beliefs and location can be "passed down" to some degree.) This will result in eventual birth increases as pro-fertility adaptations build up. You can't assume that the system is static and that trends will continue when the math of evolution inherently promotes a pro-reproduction bias.

These game environments are the sandbox where AI agents need to play in order to learn and evolve. Just like human children need to play, RL agents have the same need. There is a fundamental difference between learning statistical patterns from a fixed dataset (supervised learning) and learning by interactivity and exploration (reinforcement learning), where the agent can create and test hypothesis, thus gaining causal inference powers.

A simulator is an unlimited, dynamic dataset, so much more than, say, ImageNET or even Wikipedia. The ability of an agent to create its own predictions about the evolution of the environment is essential in planning and reasoning. That's how we get to be so smart - we have a mental simulator we can apply to any situation to check what the outcome would be. When agents learn to do the same, they too can become smart. AlphaGo for example was doing that - planning ahead (MCTS) and that's how it beat us at Go. A simple neural net without planning wouldn't have beaten the best humans.

I think simulation is going to be the next ingredient we add to AI to make it learn and reason like humans. It's the missing ingredient we need, that combined with RL will lead to the next breakthrough.
Everyone below a certain income starts with insufficient income to go to college, buy a car, go to the dentist, and many other things.

Living paycheck to paycheck is a very real thing, and it only takes a minor circumstance to cause massive debt. You don't even need a credit card to find yourself up to your eyeballs in debt.
From what interested me at the time (game engine, math, computational geometry, algebra) to what interested others like "how can computers help people become more effective", "how does this whole internet marketing thing work", etc...

My first successful business was about helping self storage owners attract customers. It wasn't super interesting, but I focused on making it work and learned many things that were not comfortable to learn. A core lesson I learned is that the first step is find people that have problems and help them solve it.

There is a value of having an entrepreneurial mindset even if one does not end up as the owner of a business, and one of my concerns is that the mindset of today is "get a job" rather than "help people with problems"

Over time, I have built a career by focusing on other people's problems first to build skills, trust, and knowledge. Now, I am effectively a principal working on really cool distributed system problems.

When I started, I had 20K debt in student loans and was living out of my car. However, my story is a case of Survivorship bias, and a difficult aspect is filtering out what was luck versus was could be applicable advice. I do think the focus on building relationships and helping people with their problems is key.
Yeah, the more I think about it the easier it seems.

You could probably write "plugins" or shims/wrappers for most package managers out there pretty easily.

And a great MVP would just be the ability to install from a magnet link.
To follow up on my last comment: this week's episode of Off The Hook (one of 2600's radio shows) had a nice segment on John Perry Barlow.
Maybe but it's pretty common for much knowledge of even the recent past to be lost and it seems plausible that even a detailed selection of texts couldn't give the experience that someone who was there could give.
"To my mother, Ayn Rand and my daughter" is not ambiguous without the Oxford comma, but would be with it.
I'm trying to think of any Christian countries where they don't educate women. I don't think it's a statistically significant thing.
I keep finding speaking Brazilian Portuguese very useful on Internet forums. :-)
I wonder if there's also not a big effort to ask the parents if they want an autopsy, or if many simply refuse? It's an emotional situation and there might just be a big lack of data here (plus you need a lot of working hypothesizes on what to be looking for as well).
I'll add to the mix - there needs to be an equivalent of Thunderbird on Android.

Aquamail is the most feature complete service there was, and now it's been acquired.

A major Thunderbird and Firefox distraction was their shared codebase.

If the new Firefox can do what it can, maybe there could be another codebase that compiles well to multiple platforms, maybe even the first mainstream webassembly app.
I've used a bunch of these for object detection labeling.. the best one i found so far is labelmg (free) and rectlabel for Pascal VOC format.
I think we're arguing similar things. I'm not saying we only need a hard outer shell. I'm arguing that we _need_ security in depth. And that depth should include all scopes of the internet protocol, not just global. You _should_ be able to run TLS locally so that if some global thing does get in, it now has to penetrate another security/application layer too. I should be able to tell my browser to trust these certificates for global IPs and these other ones for my home site. Why not run IPSEC in you home while you're at it too so it's even harder for a remote thing to pivot.
> Zen and Buddhism in general is full of people like Alan Watts and Trungpa. Both were highly intelligent, inspiring writers, and alcoholics who presented themselves as masters.

Pretty sure you're wrong about Watts as I vividly remember reading in his book that he did not consider himself a guru. He also said something along the lines of there exists only one guru for you and that's you. Here's the first quote I could find, in its entirety:

> This is what gurus have used to trick you into seeing. All these trials they put you through are simply to convince you that you can’t do anything about it, but not “convince you” in a theoretical way. I’m not a guru—I don’t give individual spiritual direction to people—so maybe it’s not the best thing that I’m giving away the guru’s tricks, but I might as well. You can struggle and struggle and struggle, and you will do so for as long as you have the feeling inside you that you’re missing something. And everyone will encourage you to think this way, because they also feel they’re missing something, and they think they can get it by such and such a method, so they’re going to try to convince you that their method is the thing to do.
- Out of Your Mind

Phew, that was a royal pain and a half to copy/paste from kindle cloud reader. Anyway, everyone knows about Watts's personal history by now, but no one could ever explain how it changed anything he wrote. He certainly didn't take himself very seriously at all, which is in line with his philosophy.
What i mean by drastic and rapid change is like how drugs affect the brain. We have no evidence that happens, and a lot that says it doesn't. Except for gambling, process addictions have been removed from the dsm because of a lack of evidence that shows addiction in the typical clinical sense.

And for those that really literally compare fb to illegals drugs, they're complete idiots not to be taken seriously. It is so far divorced from every bit of evidence we have, i think they are more trying to push a particular narrative.
Making a neighborhood nicer decreases affordability. Making a neighborhood crappier increases affordability. That's capitalism.
It's also likely Africa will grow a fair bit economically leading to less migrants and a reduced birthrate. Africa's a big place - you can fit a lot of people in.
That's more fitting for my cello quartet specializing in Bach's sonatas :D
Although I truly think this is a fantastic product, both in the simplicity of the offering and the simplicity of the API, I was a little concerned about being able to use my own domain and phone number when sending messages, for the sake of building trust with my users. Also, I (selfishly, perhaps) have more faith in the reliability of an established service than something recently launched.

For anyone who has similar concerns and wants to use something more customizable and reliable like Mailgun/Twilio, but wants access to the same elegant API showcased here, you can use something like this (admittedly naive) implementation:

const mailgun = require('mailgun-js')({apiKey: api_key, domain: domain});
const twilio = new require('twilio')(accountSid, authToken);

export default function notify (to, msg, options) {
if (Array.isArray(to)) {
to.forEach((toSingle) => notify(toSingle, msg, options));
return;
}

if (to.includes("@")) {
mailgun.messages().send({
from: 'Your name <yourname@example.com>', // your email
to: to,
subject: options && options.subject,
text: msg
});
} else {
twilioClient.messages.create({
body: msg,
to: to,
from: '+5555555555' // your number
});
}
}

This implementation wouldn't require that much extra effort to set up initially (i.e. signing up for two API credentials instead of one and installing two packages instead of one), but it gives you a lot more flexibility to configure the from address and phone number and might help you sleep easier at night.

However, as a fellow startup founder, I think it's noble to support newer projects like this. As such, I've signed up for an account and plan to test it out for at least a month.

I don't mean to be a weenie about it. I really truly appreciate what the Thunderbird team and Mozilla team are up to and have donated in the past. I also understand that the Thunderbird team is super small, as well. As an outsider, I guess I just don't understand how they are separate :)

I agree with your sentiment 100%, but "pull themselves up by their own bootstraps" is a phrase that came into existence to MOCK the idea that you can do it all on your own. It's obviously absurd, until it got so common that we use it without thinking. If you need a fresh quip to get the point try: "that poor mother can get by drinking her own milk!"
Probably US only. The cheapest EU prices I'm used to are normally around x5 more expensive for SMS.
I guess you could call people living in unsafe substandard housing, paying upwards of 60% of their income on rent, and homeless... "impatient" for this to change. If only they knew it was good for _society_ to be more "patient" about their substandard housing.
Different strokes and all, but I am a typical-for-HN tech guy, and I married a lawyer, and we are both very glad we did not marry someone in our own field. Though it does appear to be common in law; my wife is often asked if I am a lawyer as well, to which she says "no, I couldn't stand to be married to a lawyer". :)
I can second this from a non-statistical point of view. IVF is pretty common in my relative circle and I do not find the kids to have any sort of mental/physical issues

The biggest gap in the references/history section is the failure to mention V. Glushkov, whose NFA construction has much appeal and certainly predates Thompsons'. Reading the references, one might also draw the conclusion that regex implementation almost ceased between 1968 and 2007.

In our experience, regex matching can be simple and fast, but only sometimes. RE2's approach is straightforward but naive; we built a considerably faster (on some metrics) and more scalable system in Hyperscan. The cost of this turned out to considerable complexity - and there are still many regexes and inputs that don't perform particularly well in either system.

I'm not trying to target you per se, but you did give an anecdote about it.

Gucci is pure name. Their quality is better than average, but the price is nowhere reasonably higher than the average quality. Frankly, the money is wasted because someone stroked your ego with powerful psychology and manipulation. This is only slightly different than catering to "whales" the free-to-play markets, but just with a bit more customer service.

Most "popular" products are the same way. They paid celebs to carry their product, or use their product. Frankly, who cares? The celebs are being paid, whereas you pay.

If you have your name on my stuff, then I'm advertising your brand. You either gave it to me as swag, or you're paying me for it. The last choice, is it's a nonprofit and you're doing advertising to help them. Aside that, you're paying for the benefit of bolstering and proving their name further. Nope nope, and nope.

Concierges? Sure, I understand having hand-holding assistance. Some people do need that, as many of us in IT are well aware of. But there is a difference between "I'm not sure if that would work for you", versus "You just look stunning with that hat on. That hat just works exceptionally with you! And that parfum - oh so elegant! (add more unintended shit to buy)"
A) Scopes aren't a hack they're part of the protocol.

B) Scopes are exactly: "the global internet and the home".

Considering those things why should it be absurd if I want to secure my home scope at the application layer too? IPv6 is literally designed to allow for this. Browsers are the things that are being stubborn.

If IPv6 is just a terrible collection of hacks then we need a new version and fast before everyone get stuck on v6 for the next 50 years....
Because Flickr is for storing and exhibiting your photography. Instagram is for exhibiting your life. They have different purposes. The former doesn't attract masses of followers, and the latter doesn't require any significant photographic skill or even much of an eye for photography.

iOS ‘iBoot’ source code posted online, Apple issues DMCA takedown notice
I’m glad that 538 share their data. At the end of their articles and ones like them, I’m often left with questions or little threads that just having the data would help me explore.

Case in point: after their discussion of the bechdel test, I was able to explore follow on questions of my own:

Without their data, I probably wouldn’t have bothered, or thought much about it.

Do you know many people impoverished in their old age because they bought a couple of houses (assuming no mortgages)? Bank savings inflate away, stocks crash, houses are typically as safe as houses.
They need to advertise it as a physical disconnection of the microphone.

The switch doesn't need to be part of the main board --- it could be located next to the mic, so it's trivial for anyone with even the most basic electronics knowledge to see that it does what it says it does.
> it goes down and doesn't go up again.

Its almost like making and raising kids is a full time job, and in places where you have better alternatives to making no money and hoping the fruits of your labor support you 30 years down the line people would rather have a career.

The day you reverse the reproduction rates in countries where they are negative is the day you recognize parenting as a skill worthy of as much credence as teachers, lawyers, or plumbers.
