Well, there have been attempts to create single standards (e.g. CMIS, in the content management space). A lot of the time, enabling the right workflow for the integration to be useful involves providing capabilities that quickly diverge from any common standard that is agreed on. Tying together different business stacks involves a lot more than just establishing API endpoints for individual actions.

Having a single API reduces this inevitable maintenance overhead and swaps out some set of N integrations in favor of one other. There is the added benefit of having a resource (Kloudless, in this case) assist with enabling whichever use case the business is trying to solve for their users by providing the integrations.
A lot like ants encountering the inside of a freezer. In this case, though, a human is going to be told "there is a broken car here someone has to come collect", and they will hopefully notice if they see two or three of them at the same location (seeing as how cars don't travel instantly so there is time to notice stuff in general).

I think those old websites are great and it's a shame that so many were lost in time or with the destruction of geocities. I resurrected my own from some backup I had kept by some stroke of luck, the site was originally created on the defunct French website mygale.org around 1997 or so. Here is it now for the curious : https://www.bidouille.org/ext/old_site/ :)
Interesting that it's still available to me. Uncomfortable situation over all, but an understandable decision.

What about the Jazz apple? That's the trademark term for 'Scifresh', which is a cross between Royal Gala and Braeburn.

While Jazz is relatively new as a commercial apple (2004), Braeburn isn't on the list.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braeburn says "According to the US Apple Association website [Braeburn] is one of the fifteen most popular apple cultivars in the United States."

A check of http://usapple.org/all-about-apples/apple-varieties/ shows that Fiji, Crispin, Cameo, Macoun, and others are in the top-15 which are not on this list of 18 that I "actually need to know about."
1) the EU moving away from US economic and foreign policy is a relatively recent development. On most issues, from Crimea to copyright, you can usually start from the assumption that European and American positions are somewhat aligned. The exceptions (privacy etc) are well-known exactly because they are exceptions.

2) EU countries have a significant skin in the creative-sector game, in a way they really don't in other segments. In tech the US are more or less dominant, most "Big Bad Corps" are American, hence it's easier to attack. As soon as big European interests are in the picture, things naturally become harder. In this case, the incriminated books are by top German authors and likely contribute a pretty penny to the publisher's bottom line.

3) do not make the mistake of assuming a humongous organism like the EU always talks with one voice. Already what we call "EU" is actually a hodgepodge of treaties and institutions (including nation-states that literally invented the various different forms of nation-statehood to mark differences with their neighbours...) that are slowly being integrated together. Then you have competing interests between nations, between institutions, between different economic and political interests, and between individuals. In this case a court ruled in a certain way following existing guidelines; but it might well happen that something else, like EuroParliament, looking for a fight at some point, will eventually pick up this sort of issue and push for change.

> Europeans seem to have more democratic governments that are more willing to represent the interests of their citizens

I wish I could share this view. Alas, things like corruption, regulatory captivity, and revolving doors, are big problems on this side of the pond too.
The article linked in this post directly addresses (3) as being an absolute non-issue spread by FUD, and the whole article is about (4) being very probably untrue.

It also goes into solid detail on the extent of (1) and (2), neither of which seem particularly groundbreaking.
Sure, but in many cases it didn't have to guess. It knows. Moreover, even when it had to guess, the guess can sway both ways based on a person's watch history too: Wouldn't you think a person who watches a raspberry pi video after they watched 10 videos about handbags and jewelry and mascara can be guessed as a female? After all, Google IDs unique people and devices.
No idea why you were downvoted like that. I'm a nominal Brit with a lot of Irish influence. Reverse those nationalities and you could say the same - which you pretty much did.

I have a similar experience of wakes as you - they are quite often a damn good piss up and quite rightly so.

As to the Celts thing, that is rather more complicated. In England there is a pejorative term: the "Celtic fringe" which probably doesn't help here! Celtic-ism seems to me to be a bit of an amalgam of some real historic fact and rather a lot of rose tinted, backwards glancing pseudo nationalism and a lot of bollocks. I won't go further on that, otherwise this comment will become an essay but as you say: "... ancient demographic groups in reference to modern day events" - where's the relevance: we've moved on a bit since 55/54BC etc?
Because, unlike some frankly sometimes a bit ignorant view of especially Americans, Germany isn't the paradise of individual/customers rights paradise it's often portraied as. It fights companies like Google not because privacy and security concerns but protectionism and the public accepts that due to some reasonble concerns about privacy spiked with deeply entrenched anti-americanism. (For context: I'm German)
gutenberg.org has a link to view it in German on the front page. I guess if you provide several translations and use a top level domain like .org, you are more likely an international web site than an English-only .us web site.
I'm not sure I follow why people are upset with the publishing company that's sueing. They do own the copyright. One can disagree with the law and think it should be changed (I strongly believe that) but that's up to lawmakers to do. It would be irresponsible for the publisher to ignore that their ownership is being ignored.
> The poster was asserting that market forces don’t determine remuneration according to their satisfaction, and that instead people should be remunerated according to what the poster thinks they deserve.

No. lobotryas was saying that we're only discussing shortage of women writing
software because it's a well-paying office job. If anything else was kept
intact, but either the job was low wage or other jobs that women currently
choose much more often were paid as highly, we wouldn't have the discussion
about too little women writing software.

> How is criticising this as communism not valid?

Because it was not the lobotryas' point.
I haven't tried to find something and not found it.

The back end is way more mature than front end SPA stuff so I'll just list some things I'm really glad to have in that space

- re-frame : like redux but better

- re-learn : lets you create tutorials for application with no changes to dom

- cljsjs/filesaverjs : cross browser file download dialog

- cljs-react-material-ui : material ui react library port

- camel-snake-kebab :useful for changing casing

- com.rpl/specter : easy way to deal with large nested data structures

- stylefy : inline styles with support for media queries and animations (all with clojure data structures!)
as a first example that pops up in my head, google for Kim Dotcom
While some people have been hostile, the majority have been willing to engage with him on the topic.

I suspect that a lot of people aren't hostile or bother trying to engage at all -- they simply don't go.
Well in case this helps at all, I've just created (not very optimized) animated GIFs of them all: http://no.gd/mariowater/

If you decide to use them, I'll leave them there as long as it causes no bandwidth issues, but you might want to mirror long-term :-) (and run them through an optimizer)
Define "Celt".
Putin has been perfectly clear about this, at least when he is talking to his own public. He says the collapse of the USSR and the Soviet block was one of the great tragedies of the 20th century, and he says that Russia will be under grave threat of being invaded and occupied by the US until it gets back its old territory.

He also says that Russia has a right to intervene in any country that has a substantial number of citizens of Russian decent that he believes are being ill-treated.
Done! [0] And now it is adorning the teapot's own article. [1] The beautiful thing about Wikipedia is that anyone can contribute. I just used the "Upload file" link at the side [2] and it led me step by step through the upload, so you don't even need to know a thing about Wikitext or the myriad of Commons policy (there was a thing about patents but hopefully it's safe on that front). Btw, I uploaded the first one I found that had an open license and resembled the teapot, [3] and am not that acquainted with 3D models, so if you find a better one, don't hesitate. In the future, please be bold [4] in fixing any deficiencies you find in the Wikipedia projects. :)

It isn't only "outsiders" who do destructive acts.
The most significant change in cricket has been covered wickets when it rains. If you have ever had the fun of playing on an uncovered wet wicket you will understand how elite teams were able to be bowled out for under 20 runs on wet wickets.

I also think more body protection has played a massive role in more aggressive batting. When I was young I used to play with nothing more than pads, gloves and a box and had to face bowlers who could bowl over 140km/hr on very unpredictable wickets. I got out more than once getting out of the way of some bouncer that stayed low as I was looking to avoid getting hit. I have been hit enough times with a cricket ball to have learned self-preservation is the better part of valour.
>Those who say it adds "value" without actually trying don't have basis to support their claim

Please, speak for yourself. Some of us have enough trouble find a variety of food to eat without such restrictions. It is actually insulting to be told that radically changing my diet as an unintentional lifelong picky eater is some trivial exercise.

Furthermore it is arrogant to judge value so certainly on behalf of strangers. Put frankly, who are you to tell me what I do and don't like?
That is why I asked, I am only aware of the use of IOPS in connection with disk I/O and it seems a rather unusual measure for a database where caches hopefully avoid hitting the disk too often, at least for reads. And writing 8 MiB/s assuming 4k clusters seems not really noteworthy especially given three fold redundancy. On the other hand reading 700 MiB/s per second which would also not be affected by the redundancy seems a comparatively big number especially because caches should limit the disk traffic to a small fraction.
DMCA, computer fraud have been and are used to extradite non-US citizens to put them in front of a US court for crimes under US law. Regardless of it being a crime in the country where the suspect lives/did the hack.
Not sure why you would mention diesel. At the moment, European governments are queuing up to announce draconian bans on diesel coming into force in just a few years. That's certainly not pleasing most entrenched players in the energy and manufacturing sectors.

If you wanted to highlight established interests successfully fighting their corner in EU proceedings, you could have picked something like tax harmonisation or OGMs - fields where extensive lobbying seems to have ultimately won the day.

I agree - honeycrisp are just not the same as they were.

Have you tried zestar? It is patent encumbered like honeycrisp use to be, but quite nice! Like the honeycrisp of old.
Its cultural as well, in India specially the older generation it was expected that women stay at home and take care of the kids while the men work.
> a few years ago Megabucks (Wisconsin lottery) was above pot odds even after taxes and with the cash payout option

This happens more often than you'd think. For example, eyeballing it, it looks like Indiana's Cash 5 lottery has a positive expected value right now, but I haven't broken out my detailed calculator to confirm.

The other major things you need to account for are the likelihood of splitting the jackpot with other winners, the fact that most people have non-linear utility functions, and the cost of logistics. (This last one may not seem too important, but if you buy more than 10 or so tickets, it becomes readily apparent that the time spent checking whether a ticket is a winner can add up.)
Where do you get 4) from?
How do you think so? From the court order:

Doesn’t a helicopter serve these needs? I think the problem is there isn’t a market for it yet. There is Blade in NYC and LA but it’s closer to 10x the price. I think the cost could be a lot lower if there was higher demand.

I think there doesn’t need to be new tech to make this work. Helicopters are safe and reliable, but are out of reach financially for most. I don’t see how drones or multirotor would be able to compete on price for a very long time.
I don't believe anybody cures with saltpeter anymore, but if you want your bacon to taste like bacon, you're going to use curing salt.
Compare with chlorophyll levels in the ocean:

https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/30786

Essentially there are small diatom things at the bottom of this food chain (and at the top of the ocean) that do the heavy lifting of converting sunlight into energy. Plankton (diatoms and the many, many, many variants) then get eaten by fish and then those fish get eaten by bigger fish and then the Japanese/Chinese/Spanish fishing fleet scoops them all up.

Temperature is important to the phytoplankton so there are places like the seas around Iceland that are extraordinarily rich for marine life. Also important is what flows out of rivers and gets blown off the land, grasses on land are therefore surprisingly important for fisheries - nitrogen has to come somewhere.

In conclusion I am surprised at how different the two maps are of where the fishing happens and where marine life as measured by chlorophyll happens.
Sorry to go off on a tangent, but I wanted to ask your opinion since you're in a similar state to me. For my first marriage I felt like my wife was with me and part of building my career. So I felt no pause whatsoever about our differing pay scale. Now that I've been divorced 6-ish years differential income is one of my biggest hurdles. I feel like virtually any long term relationship I'm in will mean significantly subsidizing someone. From an economic standpoint there's so very few options where we're on an even footing. And frankly, women who make the same as me are likely going to be looking for mates who make even more. It's made it very difficult to find a relationship I feel is equitable and/or equally beneficial to us both. I've tried to "get over it" but haven't been able to. Women are fine, but women + the state is terrifying to me. Now I have a daughter to protect my assets for. Have you struggled with any of the same things?
Also priorities and context/time. The benefits of doing well in school is different from the benefits of high pay and power positions and people have different goals in their teens/early 20s compared to their mid 20s-50s.
Yeah, not enough emphasis on absolute risks here.

Sometimes, I'd say most of the time actually, people's lifestyle and routine are introduced in order to combat a much worse problem in their lives than slightly elevated cancer risks.

I suspect it has more to do with modern medicine extending life spans so people are living long enough to die of cancer rather than other things like heart conditions.

The bit with the person in a wheelchair chasing a duck with a broom is great. And it illustrates simultaneously two things: there is no hope that an AI driver will ever understand everything that is going on around it. But fortunately, you don't have to understand exactly a broom-wielding duck-chasing wheelchair rider to drive carefully around it.

Right. But as long as it can manipulate its way toward that expansion (by, say, laying claim to the ethnic Russian populations in eastern Ukraine and playing tough to the West to inhibit any retaliation) it won't have to get involved in all-out war.

Agree 100%. Russia's biggest strength is also its biggest weakness: reliance on outdated forms of dominance. What we ought to be doing is working closely with China to develop energy technologies. Not only would it strengthen our interdependence on China (reducing the possibility of war with them), but our ability to cripple Russia economically would be substantially increased if we could build a couple thorium salt nuclear reactors in Eastern Europe and cut off Russia's income from oil exports.
Thank you! I mirrored them to my own hosting and linked them at the beginning of the post.
This is so sad to me, but my experiences volunteering as a male have been the same. Even though women are statistically more likely to be a child murderer, it's fine for women to be alone with children, where men are viewed as a liability any time they are alone with kids.

Not looking forward to that part of fatherhood once I have kids of my own.

Third month is all around Deep Learning.
I am actually sure. I eat salt daily. I'll try that with the pork belly because it sounds delicious.

The big footnote missing from my post is that I'm celiac. I've done a ton of trial and error to find foods that cause me problems. I basically eat chicken (seasoned with salt and pepper) and rice (with butter) everyday. I only drink water and unsweetened vanilla almond milk. My snacks are popcorn and salted potato or corn chips. On this diet I don't get sinus headaches.

No one likes to hear it, but I've isolated monosodium glutamate as a trigger too. It's in a ton of flavored chips that I ate thinking they'd be fine for me.

Give me a month to try this. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Never heard of it, don't know where to get it.

But at least I'm not alone thinking the HoneyCrisp has lost its touch :-)
If you live in the SF bay area, Good Eggs sells several types of uncured bacon. The one from Sonoma County Meat seems the least processed, having only salt and spices added. None of them are cheap though, around $14-16 / lb, far more than what I'd pay at Safeway for the carcinogenic bacon.
He is economical.
You're suggesting someone would fly in one of these, and exactly at the right moment detonate a bomb to cause it to fall from the sky onto someone? How in the world would they aim the falling vehicle? It's not like they're gonna have control of the thing. And even in this case, why not just use the bomb to blow someone up instead of taking it onto a plane to possibly drop it on someone? This just feels...so unlikely.
That's a well and fine point. However, by being unclear there is no indication that those companies are not partnering. That could be construed as propagating false rumors. It's not just the intent that is important, but how people are likely to perceive it.

An interesting question. Given a limited number N of lottery tickets you can buy, what is the minimal N for which you maximize your expected winnings? The answer maybe requires enumeration of particular tickets and cannot be derived just by formulas (my conjecture is that problem is #P-complete).

I wrote that comment a bit carelessly. the income tax itself is progressive, but things like VAT are regressive and ultimately make up a far greater share of tax collected.

the EU as a whole actually has a more regressive tax system than the united states (although they spend the proceeds very differently), but in the netherlands, the regressive and progressive taxes essentially cancel out so that overall taxes are flat.
