We've got our toddler a Hauck seat, and we're very happy with it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01HGH89JI

He moved into it from a baby seat, so he's never regularly used a front-facing seat. He can still see out well enough to see what's going on, and to comment when we don't go the way he's expecting. He's three at the moment, and we fully expect to keep him rear-facing until he's four.

Our older children had to move into a front-facing seats earlier because there wasn't really a choice. But there is now, and I know a couple of other people who have also gone down this route.

Saldy when you are in need of healthcare, money is the only negotiation power you can have. An insurance company dealing for you has a lot more power, but if you are on your own you have no power to say "right, this vital heart op is too expensive, I'll drive 300 miles for a cheaper provider. ggrrrrl".

That's why universal healthcare is the better solution for everyone.
Since we're discussing nationalisation of drug development, one more less extreme idea that I think needs more air-time: The creation of government-issued prizes for drug discovery.

Here's how it goes- Government X issues a prize of $10B to whichever company comes up with a new drug for, say, blood pressure. (10B being about as much as a company would get in revenue for a blockbuster drug.)

Companies submit their drugs, which are then tested independently (see http://www.alltrials.net/ if you want to know why that's important), and if they are found to have passed the requirements in a strictly yes/no manner, they get the money.

The IP for the drug then passes to the government, which can then manufacture and sell it at generic rates.

Like everything there are down-sides to this method, but it would sidestep a lot of the issues around companies' incentive alignment with healthcare.

> you can store whatever you want unencrypted on the read model.

So to recap correct me if I’m wrong:

You store everything encrypted.
You have an api on it which hides the encryption and shows everything unencrypted.
On the unencrypted api you do joins/aggregations.
RightToBeForgotten then means delete its decryption key and remove it from the in-memory api.

Right?
Nope. In Russia you can post whatever you want as long as you don't cross the law.

Amazon has, at various points, had sales such that they were almost giving away Echos. When prices are down in the <$100 range (or $30, for the Echo Dot during some sales), there's a lot of people that will take a flier on something and buy one for the hell of it and try it out. A homepod at $350 is more of a real investment.

> India took a firm decision on IRNSS in 1999 after the US government refused to share GPS data

Given India's rising position in the world economically (they'll have the fifth largest economy in two years or so) and militarily, they'd have been crazy to not go forward with their own system regardless. That's particularly the case given India has a very complex position among all the powers, from the US to the EU to Russia to China. They're far less blatantly aligned one direction or another than the rest.

Their general geo-political neighborhood presents wild security considerations. To be a fully independent power in the coming decades, they'll want to gradually acquire their own capabilities at most things.
> Up until then we were supposed to learn to read by reading. It was the big thing then: learn to read the same way we learned to speak: by doing it. It worked for lots of kids. Not for me.

My impression is that it's pretty much settled science that Mrs. Gordon was right and phonics is better than or as good as look-say for the vast majority of children.

Most children might cope better than you did, but they may have done even better with Mrs. Gordon's phonics, and moreover the most successful ones may be "secretly" using phonics-type methods which they either worked out for themselves, or learnt at home or kindergarten.

> As far as I know(I don't drive) there is no need to ever re-take the theory test which has been revised a number of times since many people took their license in the first place or pass any kind of medical to have it renewed.

That is correct. However, this is also true in the US. So since neither requires retaking any tests upon renewal, Swedish drivers (assuming initial premise to be correct) will always be better than their US counterparts, on a proportional decline over time on a graph.

I agree that there might be something to do there, but it is again not invalidating the initial statement.

This is not an actionable proposal because there are many ways to target people via direct mailers, locations of billboards, selection of platforms. And in the end I don’t think people seeing targeted ads is really the crux of the problem. Facebook will still store our data. And fake news will still proliferate via non-ads channels.

Also a lot of people think Facebook makes a lot of money off its data but that’s really far from the truth. Facebooks main innovation was letting other companies leverage their own customer data on the Facebook platform by using cookies to cross-reference. They notice their user ‘123’, who shopped for shoes last week but never bought also had a Facebook cookie indicating how they can advertise directly to that user on the Facebook platform.

That is a wildly more expensive ad and it has nothing to do with facebooks personal data. Facebooks secret weapon is not personal data but rather that 1 billion people log in for a half hour per day allowing 3rd parties to reach many of their customers directly.
As a former resident of Sydney, this will change nothing. Sydney is fucked because of a number of interrelated circumstances, none of which are easy to change:

- The first is its geography. The harbour is a giant wall through a big part of the city, with only a few chokepoints where people can cross. These are congested, and constrain the entire road and rail transportation network. The Pacific ocean constrains growth to the east, the blue mountains to the West, and the national park to the south. The only growth corridors are towards the southwest, and northwest - a long, long way from the CBD.

- It's not nearly dense enough. Australians love their free-standing houses, both the McMansions in the new suburbs, and the trendy terraces in the inner city, beloved by Baby Boomers who have a convenient lifestyle while living in an "urban village" - of course, they all bought back in the 90s when it was still affordable. These two types of housing make it incredibly inefficient to build a workable rail public transport network, so a lot of the PT is forced to use busses, which are not as popular, and suffer from the same congestion at the chokepoints as well as the additional car traffic from everyone who isn't well-served by PT. This is a lot of people.

- Any attempts to build higher density housing, particularly in the sainted inner suburbs will be met with cries of "Over-development", even by people who should know better such as the Greens.

I moved to Berlin a few years ago, and it's a comparable city in size to Sydney (3.5m vs around 5m in Sydney). It works far better because it's far denser, and the level of infrastructure provided makes living here a breeze by comparison. Berlin came of age before the motor car, and was geographically constrained for quite a period there by an actual wall. Sydney really started to grow just as the car become popular and widely-owned.
Just because you do something full-time doesn't make it full-time employment. I'm sure there are people who use these options as their main occupation but would still rather have the flexibility instead of showing up to work on a schedule because, as I said, there are actual jobs available if they want that.

I think you are missing the point. What I think GP was saying is it's sad that the only way to fund grand projects seems to be making them useful for killing other people.
This is a common misunderstanding about the relationships between companies, employees, and markets.

Companies aren't the originators of jobs. Instead, demand for goods/services can reach a threshold that makes corporate organization for profit viable, and in so doing, requires that employees be hired to fill the demand. If there isn't demand for a good/service, then even a company that is providing it will be unable to pay people. On the other hand, if demand for that good/service exceeds the capacity of the company, they will hire more people (and/or more companies will be created to compete for business).

Homes are for living in, not investment vehicles. Housing is not a free market: supply will not rise to meet demand, and entry into the market is limited not by the ability to pay a mortgage, but the ability to pay a deposit, which limits participants to those with access to large amounts of cash.

Individuals doing so are increasingly punished for this behaviour as a way for governments to control anti-social investing (eg, in the UK) or increasingly prevented explicitly from doing so (in China).

I hope the same happens in the US: the alternate is house prices spiralling further out of reach of those without family wealth or very large incomes and those with family wealth or very large incomes growing increasingly wealthy.

Sorteo Champions League: El Bayern, último obstáculo para Madrid hacia la final
I asked my Japanese wife for her opinion on this matter and she thinks the reason Japanese in general are more content is because of the lack of drive created by class inequality. Generally speaking, Japanese people are fairly well taken care of by the social systems and there is not a lot of flaunted wealth unlike in the west. Most Japanese probably see no need to strive and work too hard because their life is okay by most standards. Food is great, healthcare won't make one go bankrupt, good service and there's that whole culture of fitting in "the nail that sticks out must be hammered in". With the lack of visual class divide, younger people just don't see the point of working their asses off. They do it at first because that's what they are taught but once introduced to the very rigid and stressful work environment, there is little hope of advancement. I think the depression and suicide is a result of being content - manifesting in frustration and ultimately being unable to deal with the mundane of every day life (combined with other factors like frustration with work and or lack of partners).

I tend to agree. I have lived here for a short time but you get a sense of this just by being around people.
We bought several HomePods with the intention of replacing our Echos and Sonos. Though we knew the current version would only be a Sonos replacement and would take a few software updates before closing the gap with Echo/Google.

Apple knows it can't compete with them yet, which is why it focused as a Sonos competitor at launch until presumably iOS 12 when Siri will see a sizable update to better compete as well as offering more basic offerings such as multiple user recognition, stereo paring, brevity mode, intercom mode, Home App automation integration and such.

It will be a great product and think the price and being limited to Apple Music for now isn't a major problem but the Siri limitations and other items noted above are even for people in the Apple eco system. Once those are fixed and most heavy Apple users have one, then they will eventually lower the price, open up to third party apps, and the masses will come.

Let's just hope they update throughout the year often rather than waiting for long stretches like the other product lines.

Civilian grade GPS receivers are intentionally crippled to stop working above some altitude/speed limits.

EDIT: It seems that the COCOM limits apply only after "1,900 km/h at an altitude higher than 18,000 m".

However, looking at the ublox receivers as an example, they have to be explicitly configured to operate at aircraft-level speeds, which smartphones likely aren't.
I think if other companies want to launch thousands of satellites on SpaceX rockets, then SpaceX shareholders would be okay with that too.
Wait a second. XMPP is the very definition of IM fragmentation with thousands (millions?) of servers segregated by region, organization, etc. How is that helpful for coordinated communication?

I keep hearing how Sydney has the most expensive housing.

In my experience, I found renting to be much more expensive in Melbourne compared to Sydney.

This may be driven by affluent areas such as Rose and Watsons Bay.

So while these new measures could potentially lower pricing in the housing market for buyers, I could see this having negative affects for the renting community.

If you’re fighting for the ability to not pay your front-line people minimum wage, I have to wonder if you’ve got a viable business.

These are the people who interact directly with your paying customers and the ones who actually provide the service your customers value.
