No, it doesn't look like all ERC20 tokens will be supported by default.

This is paving the way for trading pairs and wallets for ERC20 tokens, which will be followed by Coinbase selecting specific ERC20 tokens to be added to its list of digital assets that it allows users to trade and hold with their Coinbase account.
> all self-driving cars have to do is be a little bit better for net safety to improve.

That's true abstractly but ignores several important real-world factors about the adoption of self-driving cars.

On the one had, autonomous cars have to be a lot better than humans to prevent these sorts of PR trash can fires or they won't be given the opportunity to improve net safety.

On the other hand, people are so bad that we're liable to soon live in a world of autonomous cars, regardless of the effect on net safety.

I hope they can be made safe, because it's vital for the future of our car-obsessed culture. But I don't have as much faith as you.

As one sugar baby explained to me: I can either work crazy hours for minimum wage at Dairy Queen all month and barely cover rent and food. Or I can have an older guy take me to a Michelin star restaurant and hook up with him, and I'm set for the month in a span of a couple of hours. Have a couple of them on the hook and you're now in the luxury lifestyle territory which most people can only dream of.

It's an interesting conversation. We're ok with people doing extremely dangerous and abusive jobs for shitty pay. Miners, people roaming the sewers, people welding beams hundreds of feet in the air. Those are fine. But you give someone head for thousands of dollars so you don't have to flip burgers at McDonald's while you're in college, and suddenly you're a poor victim to stand up for.

Just like most stocks did. One of my pet peeves in articles like this and the Facebook one on the front page that assume every single change in a company's stock is a direct result of something a company did that week. Pretty useless when they don't take into account what the market in general is doing.
A lot of mental disorders exhibit co-morbidity with depression. When a person grows up comparing themselves to their peers, every time they fail at something that others seem to do effortlessly, they tend to think less of themselves.

Why can't I do what they can? Without a diagnosis, the answer to that question can be "because I am a failure as a human being", leading to erosion of self-worth. But being able to answer "because I have a handicap" (due to the mental condition) helps think more constructively about how to work around the handicap, rather than just expect to be able to overcome it.

In this thread, there an insightful comment that reads: it's like realizing that you are short... after decades of being told that the only reason you can't reach as high as most people is because you are lazy.

When you said "people often use it as an excuse to not work towards improving themselves", that is exactly what the author of the comment meant by "being told [that they're] lazy". No matter how much a short person "work[s] towards improving themselves", they will not get taller. They instead find ways to work around the issue, like carrying stepladders with them.

Keep in mind, that if we had never invented glasses, a huge swath of the world's population would be considered to be handicapped. And the ones that weren't, who have only experienced poor eyesight due to dust or tears in their eyes (temporary conditions, just like feeling sad would be in comparison to depression), they could very well share your attitude, and insist that people just need to "look harder".

We do, though. Look at the cruise control or auto-park on a vehicle produced in the last few years. The totally autonomous car may make headlines, but these sorts of features will be what really make the technology ubiquitous.

The worst examples of theredpill are very similar to the worst examples of modern radical feminism. The whole "men/white people must die" contingent you see on tumblr.

You may be thinking of put options. Buying calls is a bullish position.
Fair point, but you have to take this development in context. EVs technologically outpace ICE vehicles on every axis other than refuel time, upfront cost and range. EVs can improve on all of these metrics, whereas ICE vehicles cannot. Therefore a complete switch is only a matter of time—it remains to be seen how quickly it will happen.
Pragmatic for the rich only. The disadvantaged party now has to foot the bill for changing names and thereby losing customers who may not again find them. Why should a society give that sort of obsequious deference to the wealthy? What benefit to we gain? It's not as though shelloil.de or the German language equivalent would be so hard to find, or cost them any money or business at all, since no one goes to shell.de to buy oil directly -- it's pure vanity and cost some man his moral right. It's disgraceful.

I would not want to live in a society where being rich gives you more rights, not just in practice, but in law, if that's in fact the case.

Further, I scoff at this concept of pragmatism. Life is more than pragmatics, pragmatism can easily become a synonym for cruelty, as it has in the past, whether that's consumer safety, government funded medical, animal welfare, or any other situation that was previously dictated by economic pragmatism, to the detriment humanity.

'Supply and Demand' in Mass Migration
Semi's actually get ~6.5 MPG so they only need around 5x the batteries to get the same distance as normal electric cars. The huge tanks are over 24 hours driving time and are most there so you can pick the states to refuel in.

Battery volume and weight density is not that bad when you consider the weight savings without an IC engine, transmission etc. Gasoline gallon equivalent tables ignore the vastly lower efficiency of IC engines. Costs are mostly non issue as trucks would charge daily making them break even before cars.

The actual problem is manufacturing capacity which has been ramping up but has a long way to go.
Charge rate is variable based on a huge number of factors, not all of which you can see. It also doesn't charge at the full 120kW the whole time.

Some of the factors that can affect it:

- Whether someone is sharing your charger (iirc every two bays share the same backend infrastructure)

- If you are sharing the charger, then who was plugged in first (the second person to plug in will receive lower priority)

- The State of Charge of the battery pack (the closer to the high/low extremes of charge the slower it will charge)

- Temperature of the battery pack

- Condition of the pack

- Whether there are any restrictions on the pack (some packs if they are supercharged a lot will have caps placed on the charge rate)

I imagine with the 'Megacharger' infrastructure given the sheer amount of power needed, they'll have dedicated infrastructure for the entire bay.

my opinion is that Facebook gets a darker rap for all this b/c they're famously more aggressive at engineering addiction. Maybe Google works just as hard at this, but it's pretty plain that FB's put a lot of effort into inducing the sort of addictions to social media that many feel are making life worse for a lot of people.

Long haul trucks fairly hit the breaks as that ends up costing a lot of money. However, a truck specifically for mountainous areas may benifit from a hybrid transmission.
Oh no, we could never have that. It would squash innovation! We can't possibly have any regulation of self-driving cars or we'll lose to China.
No it wouldn't. You're seriously underestimating the resources and money it would take to even attempt that. Google has an army of Android developers working on all aspects of the OS from design, security, tooling, architecture, infrastructure, features, bug fixes, etc. Others have tried and spectacularly failed because it's hard. Besides, you'll never have the developer support.
Amen. Uber's fatal accident rate is now 50x that of sober human driver's. At their current rate of driving, they can't have a _lower_ rate until 2028! Inexcusable failure of their technology to prevent a human death in the most basic collision avoidance scenario.

That's pretty cool. Can I suggest though, that sharing easily on other platforms will be important (at least as a stepping stone)? So that might involve building a facebook app that shows shared photos as well as the default one. Even though this might seem counter to #deletefacebook, I think you need to let people take small steps to taking their data back.
That doesn't make it not an AI -- it makes it a very simple, explicable AI. Unless you follow the definition that AI is whatever we don't know how to program yet.

Yeah, I have to agree with you there that the web platform has not _quite_ caught up with the total ease of Flash. I think it's starting to get there within certain domains, though, but it has been a long time in coming.
> The majority of differences between routers is just firmware and packaging, the guts are all the same.

The firmware is the part you really have to worry about, though. But the proper solution is to simply never run the vendor's firmware on a consumer grade router, because none of them are any good at assembling and securing a Linux distribution.
Exactly. More to the point, even if it doesn't log it any more, I bet it's still on the command line itself.
For the current generation mix, which is a lot of natural gas and some renewables, you’re right. And I agree the mix will get greener.

But if you were, the Graph API gave the same access as it did to others.

Honestly, it would be almost better if that wasn't true. That would mean they knew something was wrong. The problem is they think "I'm fine with this, so everyone else must be too."

>What an incredibly misguided comment.

You strangely follow this by essentially supporting my comment.

This whole conversation is a bit surreal, in a way, because we've been having it for literally a decade while Microsoft stagnates and becomes less and less important in this industry, a bit like IBM. The absolutely domination that Microsoft held in the late-90s to early-00s is something that is seems many in here are blissfully unaware. I remember desperately getting those technet early release discs to try to get a headstart on whatever Microsoft was doing next. Now...who cares? Like literally, Microsoft initiatives that are anything more than "yup, still selling that thing we got some entrenchment in a decade ago...and if we go outside of the lines even a bit it will spell doom" just fizzles. Remember when Exchange/MAPI integration was Microsoft's beachhead? BOOM. Then it was Office, but Microsoft had to rebuild Office to work on virtually every device or they would have had a mass exodus. Windows CE/Windows Mobile...all the Microsoft pull in the world was worth exactly nothing.

Now, astonishingly few shops are actually making Windows apps. In-house development is overwhelmingly web apps, or even Android/iOS. People have mentioned contact management, scheduling, etc -- all overwhelmingly web and mobile apps, or at a minimum cross-platform.

In the financial world the entire next generation of platforms are cross-platform or web-based. No one is pinning anything on Microsoft.

I'm not anti-Microsoft by any measure -- I'm typing this on Windows 10 right now -- and the various fanboy "boooo, stop hating on M$" type replies are boorish. It's just a completely different world, and Microsoft is another IBM now.

Q: "What do you want on your pizza?"

A: "I don't care; eventually I'll be dead anyway"

While a true statement, it minimizes the real implications of a valid question.
Why would "someone just living their life and doing all they already can to get by and not worrying about these things" be seeking a diagnosis/treatment in the first place?

Things are generally only considered "disorders" when they prevent you from leading a normal life, with ability of advancing in a career, forming meaningful relationships, etc. For example, Trump may well exhibit the symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, but it clearly does not get in the way of his life, and he's able to accomplish goals that he sets out. Thus, he cannot be said to have a "disorder".

Also, for many of us, psychiatric diagnosis and treatment isn't "costly", it's free. And if you meant opportunity cost, patients generally have the freedom to stop treatment if they feel that the costs overweight the benefits.

That is clever. Ugly, yes. But clever.
When one side already holds a very extreme position, "reasonable compromise", to them, is likely to look like "I give up everything, you give up nothing/very little," because coming from an extreme position to a reasonable one is by its nature going to be a long trip.

I am fully aware that not all gun owners in America espouse positions as extreme as, "There should be no waiting periods, no background checks, and no restrictions based on mental health for buying any weapons up to and including truly military-grade hardware," but so far as I can tell, that is the position the NRA has taken in this. Going from there to anything that I would see as a "reasonable compromise" would definitely require the other side to give up quite a lot.

Personally, I own no guns, and am uninterested in them, so a 2nd amendment repeal, full ban, and confiscation would not have any direct negative effects on me (and I would not object to it). However, I would be perfectly comfortable with gun control that was far short of that.

To answer your question, though, in the end, what non-gun-owners "give up" in any compromise with gun owners is some safety. It's certainly an intangible, and there's no way to measure how much is being given up at any given time—it's possible, depending on the particular restrictions that are and aren't enacted, that they give up almost none...or a great deal. This is an inherent problem when the compromise in question is about restrictions on possession or use of a thing: people who do not need or want it, but see a reason that it should be restricted, are never going to have to give up something as easily quantifiable as those who do want it, no matter how objectively good the restrictions they want are.
Hopefully they'll get to alternative tech such as DAGs like the block lattice of Nano or Tangle of Iota.

Improving app onboarding without design skills and via Analytics
Totally, I'm into that. One of the big motivators here is how painful it is currently to move _your_ photos (or any personal data) across services. We want to build an open system where you control where your data goes and how. It seems like a great idea to have outbound integration like that for sure.
>>when do we expand that to adults who have no other choice? It’s not free will if your only other option is homelessness or to starve.

But depriving them of the option of providing sexual services for pay is not protecting them.

The alternative, as you point out, is homelessness or to starve, and they would only choose the option of prostitution when they perceive it as less undesirable than these outcomes.

So you'd be forcing people into circumstances that they perceive as worse than prostitution, since in every other case, they would not be choosing prostitution anyway.
Good riddance. But I think this is not enough to send a strong message to all those who want to put half baked tech out there in hopes of "disrupting" something..

Also, I really hope all self driving testing is suspended until there is sufficient legal and testing ground work before these things are allowed on roads...
Would have been a hit on Reddit.
Uh, no. This is one of those really specious arguments that sounds clever until you think about it.

The main thing preventing total flying car takeover is that there is no technology that would make the product viable-- as has been pointed out, it would be EXTREMELY loud, create immense downdrafts, and create massive safety risks far beyond those of terrestrial cars.

Similarly, the main thing preventing robotic takeover of the cleaning industry is that there are not yet any robots capable of generically handling all cleaning tasks like sweeping, dusting furniture, washing windows, organizing a cupboard, mowing the lawn and so on. It's not just that there is no production line-- there isn't even one such robot nor is anyone capable of making one.

Etc.

I dislike this kind of empty reasoning. It derails conversations with baseless non-logic.
This is lying with statistics. To beat a dead statistician, everyone that's ever come in contact with air has died or will die.
Pivotal and Dropbox cloud IPOs linked together in time, but that's about all
Or he's referring to them according to the relative position of them compared to other political ideologies in the place of relevance to his statement.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
We'll see, but some technologies have the potential to change the face of the planet in ways we can barley imagine.

If nuclear fusion takes off, we have more power then we ever need, and mass pumping Co2 out of the atmosphere could be a viable thing suddenly.

Then there are looming miracles in food production. Lab grown meat and indoor farming in high rise buildings could massively raise food supply.

And lastly, autonomous robots doing construction & logistic work, and beyond that replacing basically every heavy lifting job on the planet. There are ~50 millions or so car produced annually, what if we started to pump these kind of numbers in robots? There could be "landscaping projects".

Throw all these technologies together and earth might look like Coruscant sooner then we think.

> Until Windows is threatened, this will be the status quo.

Microsoft is its own worst enemy - Windows usability has been going down the drain in recent years (is it possible that the desktop has been neglected due to the new emphasize on enterprise and the cloud?), and people get used to alternative OS's via Android.
"Viable alternative" with its "unacceptable latency" amounts to being just a viewer, which are dime a dozen, including most phones doing that out of the box, countless JS libraries and browser extensions, and every storage service like Dropbox having, if not basic editor, then at least very competent viewer.

I guess it's a start…
