Isn't there is a slight difference - the maximum expected Japanese earthquake (9.0) magnitude is much more powerful than the maximum expected California earthquake along the Calaveras/San Andreas (8.0)? Cascadia looks to be another 9.0 fault line but the epicenter would be closer to Seattle/Portland than California.
I fear for california if it had a tech sector crisis and/or a shift of taxes into land value tax.

I actually ride one, and have for about 2 years before this sharing became a mainstream thing. I expected this would happen and always tried to be super cautious when with pedestrians to avoid eventual regulation. I don't have a bell (although maybe I should for safety), but I think it is rude to ding people when essentially I'm on their turf. The advantage they offer if you travel at walking speeds around pedestrians is that there are often significant stretched with no pedestrians on a commute. Also there are parts where you can share a bike lane. In the CBD you are at general fast paced walking speed, but the percent of the journey is pretty low such that it is very efficient for me. Perhaps pedestrians see me as an a-hole though.
Like it or not, it has become part of the lexicon for talking about network and computer security. Trust me, hearing it used non-ironically made me cringe for quite some time, but after 10 years working in the industry on the military side, it actually surprises me more when people don’t know that it is a common use term now.

I always wear my seatbelt when sitting. I also try not to be seated close to the engines since I'm familiar with the damage that an exploding engine can do. What got my attention from these photos is that at flight speed, the shrapnel from an exploding engine is more likely to do damage far back from the point of the explosion. I hadn't considered that before.
It would be a pretty aggressive response, and certainly not one anyone would be pleased with at all. Not consumers, not ICANN, and not anyone really. But... the European Union is being extremely aggressive here to start with. They are seeking to dictate global policy and threatening gigantic sanctions if not responded to on a very short timetable. One would have to presume that they would prefer the database being blocked from access to its continued accessibility, and that might be the only possible option in order to avoid those sanctions.

I certainly do hope there are other less destructive solutions, but it's not like GDPR or the problems it has with WHOIS just sprung up suddenly. The EU knew this was going to be challenging and would require discussion, but the discussion has apparently reached the point where they have decided going on the offensive is their best option. It's not like ICANN could just flip a switch and change everything to be in compliance but they're refusing to. What the EU wants is a huge change, and you can't just stamp your feet and expect it to magically happen. But that's the unreasonable path they've chosen.
Bummer. I loved his read of the news segments during Morning Edition. So much so that I asked he record the voicemail message doing a similarly styled opening.
You can accomplish it without any extension by creating a 'Google' container and choosing yes on every Google site when it asks you if you want to always open in that container.

Or you can fork the extension, change the container name and color, and update the array of domains.
They retire here. A few work remotely. A few entrepreneurial types actually pitch in and create companies, so it's not all bad, but it'd be nice if people came here because they like it rather than "cheap!"
> I already checked the box asking to always open foo.com in a specific container. Why is it asking again?

I have some sites that I almost always want to open in a specific container. Except when I don't.

I suspect this double-confirmation is for people like me: I can chose between "always open this site in this container" and "always suggest opening this site in this container".
Fortunately it takes one tap to update your preference to have it stop nagging you to install the app.

I think CNN was clearly corrupt in the last election cycle. That's pretty well documented (especially helping Hillary against Bernie). It wasn't just "manipulative in their reporting". It was out-and-out helping a campaign win.

Are the NYT, WP, and WSJ biased? Sure. Are they corrupt in the sense that CNN was? I haven't seen evidence of it.
I'm white, I wouldn't leave if I was just waiting for a friend at Starbucks and was asked to leave. If the employee threatened to call the police, I would assume they're joking and ignore him or her afterwards.
Humans write the software the power those self driving cars... was it an error that always repeated it self or did only happen every billion iterations? I’m all for self driving but it’s still horrifying to think of the edge cases with software touching the physical world...
It would have been nice if they communicated a bit earlier, but I won't pretend to know the right thing to do in such a situation. What I can tell you is that the fear of the unknown is often (mostly?) worse than reality. The mistake they made was letting the unknown linger long enough for the fear to set in.

In Neptune's Brood there were "slow" currencies where transactions had to be settled by communication with other star systems. It was created as a deliberate way to drive colonization of new star systems, since the only way to create more of it was to colonize more systems. The founders of a colony could end up quite wealthy, if they survived the attempt.

Of course, for every-day transactions there were also "fast" currencies where transactions were settled more or less instantaneously, and "medium" currencies where it would take longer but still be reasonably quick (probably for transactions between parties on different planets in the same system, but I don't recall that it was specified exactly).
The number won't quintuple unless the price is reduced. Of course if 89% of the people were cheerfully willing to pay what the 11% are paying, then the price wouldn't change. And in that imaginary world, 89% would be covered.

The question is why don't the insurance people work a bit harder to broaden the coverage; they could make more money even at a lower price point.

Perhaps, those who are not covered are too resistant; they are not willing to get the coverage even at a reasonable price because of the way they perceive the risk/benefit. So that is to say, maybe it's a "hard sell".
I think amateur in this case refers to non-professional / research mathematician with a PhD working at a University or a Research Institute. You still need to have some serious math chops to get this kind of result, it just isn't reflected in your official title or degree.
I understand what you are saying, but I don't think you understand the economics of what is happening with all due respect. If you mean that when an early adopter sells, this is diluting, then you are wrong. It just moves ownership, there is no dilution. In fact, this is something we should all want to happen, because it improves distribution. It is mostly of little consequence though. When money is created and injected into the money supply, real dilution happens, and the creator/ injector gets the benefit of that money first, not an early adopter that through holding helped everybody. These are vastly different concepts.
I think it's latter. I didn't have a budget before using YNAB and it drastically changed my spending and money management habits.
Starbucks the organization did nothing wrong. The Starbucks manager on behalf of the organization violated stated Starbucks policy (both nationally and in the region) by requiring people in their space to purchase something to remain; Starbucks the organization is now taking corrective action to ensure that everyone who works for or is a patron of Starbucks has the same expectations going forward.

The argument is not nor has it ever been, "is a patrons only policy wrong?" The argument is "telling patrons they don't have to purchase an item every time they are in your store and then abrogating that agreement only if you're black" is wrong and illegal, and secondarily (not that you even asked) that the cops should not have arrested anyone once they got there; they should have deescalated the situation. The bystanders were right, and the authority figure was wrong; they listened to the wrong people.

As far as what you've read: in this moment they were meeting a friend. Waiting to order your coffee until your friend gets there so you're drinking coffee together is polite, and is kind of the whole point of meeting for coffee. Meeting for "oh I already finished my coffee, now isn't this awkward" isn't a plan I've ever made.

> What am I missing here? What is the correct play for dealing with a non-customer that refuses to leave your store?

State that up front and enforce it without a racial disparity.

Starbucks want people to always come to their stores to meet and hang out because they sell more coffee that way. It's in their interest to not enforce a purchaser only policy.
You are correct that all sources have bias. It's difficult for readers to check every article for this and gauge their credibility. So my startup, CivikOwl, built a Chrome extension that makes it easy to check the quality of citations in an article and scores it based on this and other signals.

If you're interested check it out: http://www.civikowl.com. Feedback welcome (If you want to check out beta mobile app hit me up: arjunm at civikowl dot com)

(There's also a whole business model behind this that helps news orgs move away from reliance on ads but that's a longer discussion).
I don't trust any mainstream media source because their biases are so obvious by what they choose and choose not to report.
Any problems? For example, CDNs are in different domains. Some ecommerce sites use payment services from other domains.
You're referring to the LA location incident that happened a few months ago and just popped up recently. Last week's Philly incident also involved a black guy being denied a bathroom code.

What's your point? Facebook still won't know what websites you visit on your PC. It also doesn't have geolocation access there unless you explicitly grant it.
Unwritten contracts are often enforced with disparate impact, which is why you should be explicit in your expectations.

Regardless, Starbucks has explicitly stated they do not have this policy, so your opinion of unwritten coffee house expectation is wrong and immaterial.
It's not even a question of partisan bias; it's a question of sensationalism. It doesn't begin and end with how news organizations cover events; it begins with what events they choose to cover.
Couldn't we save a lot of energy and have a distributed stores of identities (public keys) with ledgers, something like a git repo per identity?

Whenever I want to spend money, I just commit a changelog to my repo, I want to transfer some credit to identity X, signed with my identity (private key). I sign the ledger with my private key and commit the entry to the distributed store. Push out the changes to anyone who will listen. If you want to forget my identity and transactions, you may, but if I'm credit worthy, my identity will probably be remembered and followed.

Github could remember a repo for each of us, but users of the network would want to mirror the repos, index the repos, and keep an eye out for modified histories.

I imagine there are likely problem(s) with the idea, can someone explain the problem?

As someone who grew up just 30 minutes north of the California border, I also want California to leave its problems at the door. My family (and other locals), who are multi-generational Oregonians, have always had negative bias against Californians, due to problems they bring when they move to Oregon. Anything from advocating more tax avenues or higher taxes, to gentrification, to excessive speeding (Oregon has max speed of 65 in the entire state), to nanny-state type laws. The culture difference between California and the PNW is very different.
Huh. So cheap. Maybe I'll move from Melbourne to Fremont for the ridiculously cheap land available in the U.S.
Tell HN: Imagine installing Fortnite on a 2.4 kbps modem
I just downloaded and installed the 10 GB Fortnite game for my 11yo on our XBox One. It took ~5 minutes over our 300 Mbps cable modem

10 gb x 300 mbps = ~5 mins
https://www.google.com/search?q=10+gb+%2F+300+mbps

While we were waiting, I mentioned that in college (in 1994), I would sometime connect to the campus's servers over a 2.4 kbps modem.

10 gb x 2.4 kbps = ~1 year
https://www.google.com/search?q=10+gb+%2F+2.4+kbps

He was impressed that downloading the game would have taken more than a year.

That the targeted advertising and profiling will still come to you. Live with a person who joins fb mommy groups and buys diapers online? Prepare for a barrage of relevant ads. The main point is that the combination of relationship-inference and geolocation can undo probably 70% of your own privacy protection measures, through ignorant ordinary use of the fb app by friends, family and coworkers. Then combine that with fb facial recognition profiling from photos third parties may upload...

Here's another article cutting a height restriction near 500 feet.

http://www.structuremag.org/?p=11635

There are probably more height restrictions in different areas, and a 500 foot limit is actually quite restrictive. It would have prevented Salesforce Tower. The Empire State Building is over 100 floors.
No worries, you had it right. My news reader still shows the title as "Cambridge Analytica planning ICO".
Yeah, it's the same general principle of using a model to cheaply speed up policy learning. An advantage to their approach however, is that it learns a latent space and generalizes better.

The VAE learns a compressed vector and the latent variables are somewhat meaningful. The VAE can also be sampled from and is not just a table of memorized examples. The RNN maintains coherence with actions and observations of previous time-steps and a separate controller is also learned. The end result is their approach is richer and more flexible.
Thank you! Helpful tip!
Hmm, so JavaScript was conceived at Netscape in 1995 according to Wikipedia. After the release Sun must have registered the "JavaScript" trademark instead of going after Netscape. Any idea why they did that?

Wasn't their inaction risking to lose the entire Java trademark by not defending it against Netscape? Does anyone know more about the history here?

This doesn't work for me.

I have a "personal" container that I use for my Google/PayPal login, and sites that I use Google oauth with, same for a "work" container.

If each site used it's own container, I couldn't sign in with Google without signing in multiple times (let alone the mess of signing out old sessions, which I do once in a while).

As much as I dislike Analytic philosophy and like Continental philosophy, I can't let this criticism pass without defending the Analytics.

Some Analytics have been very involved with society and be "daring public intellectuals". Bertrand Russell, a seminal figure in Analytic philosophy, was famously politically active and outspoken. Daniel Dennett is a contemporary example, but I'm sure there are others. Analytics just don't tend to make social or political criticism a part of their professional philosophical work unless they're explicitly doing political philosophy.

I would agree that the subject matter that many Analytics tend to focus on, like the philosophy of language and preoccupation with trivial philosophical puzzles is, ahem, pretty academic and not exactly of burning concern to most people outside of Analytic philosophy departments. They're far from alone in this, however, as the same could be said of much of the rest of academia in all sorts of disciplines, including a lot of Continental philosophy -- how many non-philosophers would be interested in Derridian deconstruction or Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology of perception? Even among philosophers, it takes a special breed to be interested in that stuff.
Libraries are also tiny though. Subreddits also have curated lists of related subreddits in sidebar. /r/popular and /r/all give you a sample of posts from various subreddits (curated by users), which then link to related subs. Each sub itself is a browsable and sortable collection of related content.
That opinion really depends on where one grew up. Those who didn't grow up in Chicago or a similarly-benighted locale know that even though pizza crust may be arbitrarily thin, there is a definite maximum for pizza crust thickness.
Right, it's just Jordan Peele doing an impression. I agree that a lot of people would immediately notice the difference and get that it's fake, but I expect there's also a significant number of people who wouldn't.

Nationalism and Populism are words that are constantly reinvented and reused.

One example is that “Populism” means quite different things in US vs Latin America vs EU. In US it’s always had this agrarian, rights of the farmers, Jeffersonian element to it that distrusts big business. In Latin America, it’s about taking on the permanent plutocracy of the landed rich, and in the EU...it’s often just a euphemism for neo-Fascism-lite.
Even "lately" is unfair, I think. They hired Mark Schoofs (ProPublica) in 2013 and have steadily been doing work since probably even before that.
