Doesn't matter if there is cloud integration, there won't be constant livestreaming simply due to bandwidth constraints. Occasional 30 second segments is not dragnet surveillance or substantially worse than what is currently available. People aren't going to be randomly uploading themselves walking down the street - because why would they. The location data android uploads by default is far worse.

Fingerprints are not passwords or usernames. They're another form of authentication.

Remember: MFA is a two-or-more combination of: something you know (password, pin, etc.), something you have (keycard, token, fob, etc.), something you are (fingerprint, iris scan, voice recognition, etc.), and potentially even somewhere you are (geolocation).
>> is it really unreasonable to assume that a large corporation that has built itself on an entire multibillion dollar company would be opposed to being toppled by piracy?

That position is not what is "unreasonable", their existence is what is unreasonable. The fact that a company like Elsevier needs to be toppled by piracy at all is unreasonable.

The legal framework that has allowed Elsevier to profit from public research is unreasonable

>>But I do understand why Elsevier is fighting this.

I also understand why a serial killer would fight going to prison, that does not make the serial killer reasonable, ethical or just

I disagree here, if their lawyers succeed then they do a great disservice to humanity, and further entrench copyright law, possibly even expanding it with legal precedent

Wow! I really, really like this because the goal appears to be to expose CRDTs in a developer-friendly way. I truly believe that well-designed CRDTs are the future for a lot of distributed systems problems, but they've been a bit hard to get into for people who just want to solve problems and not read 10 papers first.

The only thing I miss here is a clear spec of the CRDT itself so that people could implement compatible versions in other languages.
Once you need to support IE11 and have designers/QA that want the product to look as designed, it is not possible to use a less sophisticated layout for non-supporting browsers only.

Instead, the layout implemented so that it works in all common browsers including IE11, and I don't need CSS grid anyway (I'm not implementing the layout twice, with all the potential bugs that can happen)

Oddly, at the totally other end of the type-system spectrum, the "wantarray" feature of Perl allows you to implement this behavior yourself for a subset (two, in this case) of Perl's main data types* .

http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/wantarray.html

You have to wire it up yourself, and it happens at runtime (because most everything interesting in Perl does) but your function can alter its return type from a scalar to a vector (list, in Perl parlance. Pearlance? Nevermind) based on the way in which it is invoked.

I've seen this used for great evil and great good, but regardless: it's an interesting case in point that such features can be present (albeit in really different forms) and useful even in languages that bear very little resemblance to Haskell/Rust/etc.

*contexts, in this case, but it allows for equivalent behavior to return-type polymorphism in a very limited way.

Edit: formatting.
Prosemirror is another option that has the editor bits implemented.

It is important to remember that culture can be influenced by incentives due to design of the system. It's a loop: both are causes, both are effects.

Example: The U.S. has a culture of "horse-race" politics and "winning". This may be traced to the two-party political system, which may be traced to "first past the post" voting rather than proportional representation. If we had started with a different political system, likely the current culture would be totally different.

To change the system, we have to change the culture and values. But to change the culture and values, we need a system that encourages us to do so.
I had a big problem with the automatic conversion on return values. This is like saying that Promise<Promise<String>> can't exist, only Promise<String>. This reminds me of when Perl disallowed Array<Array<String>>, insisting that only Array<String> was necessary.

The second drawback to this autoconversion approach is that it enforces a very specific runtime behavior, and requires drawing a line for compliant/non-compliant libraries. I remember reading the github discussion threads marveling at how they were at once dividing the community and crippling such an important feature.

To underscore our point, concatenation on strings is not associative, either.

To that end, the basics of math in associative, cumulative, distributive, etc., go together to create an algebra of what you can automate rather easily. I think most of us stopped thinking in terms of those laws years ago. To the point that it is probably odd to folks that stayed close to them.
If it makes you feel any better, I suspect that ScopedTypeVariables is basically how it should have worked in the first place. (The default behavior is pretty weird/surprising.)

That "F" stock I have? My parent's Pharmaceuticals company. I can give you a bit of insight into why the cost is so high.

1. Because they can. Other countries don't pay as much, so they can get away with increasing their margins in the US market because they can't elsewhere.

2. The R&D is a shitload. With research, they are making educated guesses at stabbing into the dark to find something that works in their lab sample. Once they find a promising lead, they dig into that. If it shows promise, they start to experiment on rats. If that works, they try it in humans (phase 1) to see if it kills or harms people. This is where they see if it actually works in a human. Then, once there is evidence that the drug doesn't kill a person, this dose has shown some results they get more people (phase 2). This shows that the drug is generally effective and what side-affects happen. Then, they give it to a large population (Phase 3). Sometimes the FDA will allow them to skip this step if Phase 2 was an overwhelming success.

That process can cost millions, if not billions. People say that "this drug only costs $0.02 per pill to make, why are you charging $100?" Because they only have 7 to 11 years to recoup the R&D costs before Generics can move in produce the drug. The method of using Universities and Research Institutions helps mitigate some of the initial R&D, which is why you hear "Harvard Scientists discover cure for super-aids." In the lab, they have a drug that in their testing cures super-aids. The next step is for a drug company to buy it and let their R&D department go to work.

And when you are in the trials phase, you have to convince humans humans to be test subjects, which means giving them money, doctors to run the tests, and pay for any healthcare costs that results in side-affects. That costs money. And then add in the costs of making sure literally EVER is documented, numbers add up, and every possible question can be answered. The FDA, for good reason, goes through everything with a fine toothed comb. If something doesn't add up, numbers change from document to another, or something minor was overlooked (like the drug was kept at 10C at Site 1 and 10.5C at Site 2), the FDA will come back and demand an answer. It's all red tape, but for good reason. It's the reason why everyone really freaked out when Trump was floating that crazy dude for the FDA. It's the last place you want lax oversight. AFAIK, most countries deffer to the FDA's recommendations on allowing drugs on the market due to it's strict oversight.

3. As I mentioned, there is only a limited period where they can make money before other manufacturers can start making the drug. Any sunken costs must be recouped by this point, which drives up the cost.

> for example, who does a city of 50K need a mass transit system?

I think that has more to do with the fact that the game is developed by a European studio (Finnish, IIRC), and in Europe even smaller cities have decent mass transit systems, so it makes perfect sense to them that you should put mass transit in a city of 50K.

Edit to add: Doing a SimCity-style fixed grid layout with two-lane roads is a disaster in Skylines because it's a disaster in real life. There's a reason why real downtown areas are horribly congested. If you set up a proper street hierarchy with arterials, collectors, and local streets, you'll have much better traffic flow, just like in real life. The SimCity games never really cared much for letting you build different types of streets (SC4 came close, but not to the extent of Skylines), and the game itself made you place everything on a grid where every tile matters, diagonals are a waste of space, and curves are close to impossible. But Skylines has several different street types built in, and the game itself uses a more flexible layout engine that doesn't penalize you for doing curves and diagonals.

Also, the traffic AI is just poorly coded, and there are mods to replace it with better, such as Traffic Manager: President Edition. It's not a problem with the agent system; it's a problem with poor AI programming.

Here's a video I stumbled on comparing the vanilla traffic AI with the TMPE AI across various different types of intersections: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yITr127KZtQ

The first thing that jumped out at me is that the vanilla AI just doesn't know how to handle traffic lights. Some mods might as well be requirements for playing the game, and TMPE is one of them.

I agree, large companies like Elsevier generally do not care about low magnitude piracy, but something like SciHub is probably to them an existential threat, and something they would throw everything at.

The music industry saw a revival of sorts, with Spotify and other streaming services offering a reasonably priced and extremely convenient alternative to piracy. That sort of an arrangement, while still not ideal, is probably the best Elsevier can hope for in the long term - provided they can offer a sufficiently interesting alternative to scihub.

So it's your phone's fault you've "missed experiences". I have to say, I've never heard that one.

Obviously no one can take away anyone's concern; however it's a larger leap to say all concerns are justified. I really don't understand your point, 50 years seems incredibly arbitrary. The smart phone explosion has come and gone; 95% of adults in the US have a cellphone and 77% have a smartphone[0]. Next to none of today's tech even existed 50 years ago can we not comment on any technological progress? I am nearly certain opinions will change over the next quarter century, and not in the way the luddites predict.

I am surprised that so many sites rely on cloudflare. I'm sure they provide some very cool services, but I would be concerned both from

- a design perspective (they are a somewhat single point of failure for much of the web, and add complexity/potential vulnerability), and from

- a control perspective, you are giving them control over your site and they have shown themselves a capricious in the past as well as vulnerable to legal coercion. (For instance, could a malicious actor take down a website by sending CloudFlare fake DMCA notices?)

I would posit that, although speed is protected in many ways in the USA, there are cases where there are definite actions behind the speakers. And I would therefore argue, that when X person gives hatred against a group, and later takes violent actions against said group, their speech isn't just speech. It's a definite call to action of assault and murder.

I also recognize there are false flag operations that could demonize more legitimate groups. But then again, I don't believe that anti-war protestors, or the women protestors are going to advocate for killing Jews, blacks, and LGBT anytime soon.
> My main problem is what does it give me over wearing a smart watch?

Turn by turn directions when riding a bike. Easy to track countdown timers that don't require swiping/navigating through a smartwatch UI.

Limited purpose devices are useful because the UI can be optimized to just a handful of use cases. Just like the original Palm Pilots were (IMHO) better for organization than modern smartphones. (The original Palm Pilots also had a more responsive UI and never decided to, at random, take 10 seconds to load my home screen after unlock.)

Combine this with Amazon's smart store that knows when you've put an item in your basket, and a shopping list. Have your shopping list appear one item at a time, and automatically progress to the next item as you fill up your basket!

No need to flip through the UI on a smartwatch to get to the shopping list, it just appears when you walk into the store.
