I think the property/personal home example is hard to defend. Consider industrial property, such as a factory or warehouse. The most reasonable application of self-assessed tax would be to any property that can be valued on purely economic/objective bases.
Don't worry, at least in Burma (country where a genocide is happening) it's fixed now. /s For a country very roughly the population of Germany they now have dozens of people policing content. In Germany they had 1200 before even announcing they'd hire anyone for Burma. And that itself was because of pressure from German government. They "care", but only about expanding recklessly and doing absolute minimum to keep their market. It's prudent corporate behavior.

> For example, while rock climbing once, I was getting down from the top of a mountain, seeing those 'squirlly refractive light worms' in my vision that some people with severe migraines get. I had all the symptoms of having a migraine--and was lucky I didn't die on that mountain--but the debilitating pain only came when I was down, in the car, away from danger, with food and water. This is how it always is.

I also suffer from migraines and I've tried different "tricks" to get rid of them or stop getting them altogether. Thankfully, I only get them ~2-3 times a month. (How some people live with chronic migraines is beyond me.)

I just wanted to say that I've also noticed this pattern. I have never gotten a migraine in a high-stress or high-stakes situation -- for example, I often get them in the car (maybe attributed to some kind of motion sickness) but never while actually driving. As a side note, I started drinking green tea 2-3 times a day which has decreased attacks by ~60% (I keep a log).
Not zero but... consider that just the oil refinery alone uses about the same energy to make gasoline to drive one mile, as an EV uses directly to drive one mile.

EVs are hugely more energy efficient overall, which helps even if what energy requirement is left comes from burning coal.
Hi! Thanks for mentioning my app! That particular list has indeed been fixed. My own administration starts in 2013 so I had similar lists. The latest version does the grouping a but more smart. :-)
Yes, absolutely! I have a _ton_ of additional docs improvements I'd like to see. Most of those are currently listed as open issues with a "docs" tag [0], and I've got some other docs ideas floating around in my head besides those (like completely revamping our docs around React-Redux).

Beyond that... oh, boy. I'd love help maintaining my React/Redux links list [1]. I've been really busy the last few months and have fallen behind on adding new links, and it could also use some maintenance attention to look at the existing links and figure out which ones are outdated and not really useful any more.

The "starter kit" lib I threw together [2] could use more design work and ideas to figure out what other "batteries included" type things we would want to include out of the box as an official Redux-branded library to solve some of people's common pain points.

React-Redux has some open PRs related to React 16.3 [3]. It's starting to look like we need to put together a bigger v6.0 major version release with some combined changes, and it would be good to get more eyes on the situation to figure out what's needed. There's also an open PR for adding an "object shorthand" for selectors with `mapState` that's been lying around for a while waiting for someone to add some tests so that we can say we're happy with how it works and merge it.

I think it is silly to try to compare across cultures by looking for the presence or absence of specific customs, because you'll always be biased by your awareness of practices in your own culture, and ignorance of those in a different culture.

It’s a toxic argument, because in practice it’s used to absolve diesel or gas cars entirely. It‘s also a way of missing the forest for the trees. Gas cars can never be clean, electric cars are in fact cleaner from the get go and have the potential to be (nearly) entirely clean. Building a world where that is possible requires a large investment in infrastructure and that will only happen if there is a large scale switchover to electric cars.

You are certainly not wrong when you say that also electric cars pollute, but you should be aware of how and when and why this kind of argument is usually deployed.

Although anecdotally the opposite (people using React without Redux) is increasing (whether they are using component state, MobX or something else), so I don’t think from that point of view (as well as others!) it would make sense for Redux to be “part of” React
Cool! I hadn't seen that. I like the idea of a solid starter kit library, although (from quickly reading the README for your starter kit) I think it should probably include more: specifically facilities for making HTTP calls, serializing/deserializing request and response data, caching data and fetch status for the requests, etc.

From working with people who haven't used Redux before - these seem to be common things people new to Redux want to do but find difficult to get started. (The boilerplate around making actions and switch statements, etc. seems a bit secondary in my opinion)

However, I realize the "proper" way to do the things I listed above is inherently pretty opinionated, so I totally understand why the Redux library itself has avoided including these things (it's much more flexible as-is; and probably why it's been so stable and stood the test of time).

> The US has a population density of 33 people per square kilometer;

Yes, and they are evenly spread out across the country, right?

What you conveniently leave out, and which turns all these kinds of arguments based on a "total area / total population" numbers into absurd exercises in futility in showing anything useful, is that you have some few mega regions:

http://osnetdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/2050_Map_Me...

Even a country like Germany has extremely uneven population, never mind countries like China or Russia. There is nothing special in the situation the US finds itself in at all - especially not since the enormous population shifts of the 20th century from rural areas to cities.

When I lived in the US (for a decade), the area I lived in was the SF Bay Area, several places. This is far more densely populated than area in Germany where I grew up (former East Germany). And yet, I could not do anything or get anywhere without a car. It has next to nothing to do with population density - in the US you are forced to drive for distances where you would walk, use a bike or public transit in areas with less pop. density in other countries.

Even during my brief first visit to the US end of the last millennium, which was a three month tour of the continental US (NY to Alaska, to Arizona, CA to FL) the "must... use... car!!!" bug got to me too. Towards the end I caught myself getting into the car and driving <200 feet to drop some waste into a wastebasket (from the car window of course) on a shopping mall parking lot... it seemed the natural thing to do, I had to deliberately catch myself and consciously think about what the hell I was doing to recognize the absurdity. After only two months in the country.
This is bananas.

> writing often drastically limits the number of strokes. I’m sorry, but I must question your experience with Chinese, because all this is covered in any reasonable introduction to the script reform.

No, it's not the same. When you make the abbreviated strokes you try to simulate things. It's not turning four apostrophes into a straight line. I also like the little dig about my knowledge about Chinese writing.

> This is why Taiwanese and Hong Kong readers, though they may find mainland China’s system culturally alien, do not generally consider it a barrier to understanding.

It is in terms of familiarity. Just like reading Shakespeare. Or the KJV if you're used to reading modern English. Try filling out a DMV form written in Chaucerian English.

> You are very mixed up here. One moment you are talking about orthography, the next about multilingualism. They are distinct things.

No, not at all. Maybe I should explain myself more. Orthography if rigorously enforced by ALL parties leads to acceptance. If you start accepting old scripts and language, you start causing multilingualism.
A 4% tax on global revenue? Laughable for Facebook. And that's the maximum hit.

It's really a shame Rosetta (edit: Philae not Rosetta) failed, because this video is unbelievable. I am seeing another world, which no one else has ever seen before.

Anyone know if there are plans to try again?

There's just something about video of another world, which simply collecting data doesn't approach, even if the data is more scientifically valuable.

I can't quite put it into words, it's like there's this other world where all this stuff is happening on it, and yet no one is there to notice it (so what's the point in anything happening there?), and it's just waiting for me (humankind) to come and see it.

Some people might feel insignificant because of that, but not me, quite the opposite, I feel huge, because it's waiting for me (us).

This has to be how people felt about the explorers of old. They must have been seriously famous.

Have you tried redux-saga? I built several projects without using it (the generators kinda put me off for some reason), but once you actually use it to build a full app you will never go back to thunks.

It makes pretty much all the things you listed (cancellation, ignoring identical requests, retry) far, FAR easier to reason about, test, and implement.

MobX might be a good option for you. But to your point about Redux's boiler plate, it may be off putting and somewhat onerous, but like brushing your teeth...putting up with Redux's boilerplate will pay dividends over the long run. I think that Redux changes your program's architecture in a powerful way in that your UI becomes fully driven by deterministic state changes. There's no way around this but to explicitly declare all the possible actions your users and processes can take and expressing the mutations in state those actions should result in through reducers. Trust me that for any non-trivial and long-lived application this pays dividends in the long run. Simpler state models with less boilerplate tend to be great for small-medium projects that are short-lived, but do not evolve well.

The main issue is not if the CPU provide support, rather forcing the devs to actually bother to use them.

But since many want speed at any cost, it will only get there with a new generation, more open to trade performance for actually secure code.
I like the tool, really. I don't know why they didn't choose to support Conan, but I guess they had a good reason to create their own tool from scratch.

Sometimes dumbing down a concept can totally screw up a person's learning curve. During early days a lot of Java tutorials (in Indian engineering books) mentioned that the reason Java has Interfaces is because otherwise it is not possible to inherit from multiple classes. While it is true that you can implement multiple interfaces, the whole point of interface is to define "interface" without forcing an implementation. It has nothing to do with the "limitation" of single inheritance.

Coming back to p values. A simple google search will find you many articles that say

> A small p-value (typically ≤ 0.05) indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis, so you reject the null hypothesis.

The whole idea of p-values is to warn a scientist that they should look for statistical significance. The behaviour of hypothesis over infinite trials is what that matters and hence more data => better reliance. But "more", "better" etc. are subjective ideas and in many cases when everything else considered normal <0.05 might be good but not always. There are far too many factors such as wrong sampling method, things you can not measure vs things you can measure etc. that affect this number truly.

I think author nails it when he writes "Replication is the best statistic."

Always think of these tests in biological evolution perspective. Do you think this hypothetis would survive the test of time where it has to frequently face the real world ?

The fact that they make money on Azure made them do some Linux(kernel)-related work. It made them join Linux International. But it's because they had no choice, not because they wanted to or suddenly stopped believing in vendor lock-in.

If they want to be competitive, they have to offer easy migration options from other cloud providers (Azure Migrate). What is everyone else running? Linux. So Microsoft has to do it, too. What determines popularity? To a large extent, winning the hearts and minds of developers. MS always understood this. As developers changed, MS needed to change the way they talk to them, that's it.

Are you outside the US?

Nothing like the thick, sturdy, glossy, eminently reusable bags I'm used to from Europe. Sometimes I get a food delivery that has a real plastic bag, and I save these, whereas all the others go directly in the trash, because they're usually already falling to pieces when I get home.

What if I told you there is an app on the market that can solve this problem using blockchain.
I've always thought of it like this -

If the state is likely to be a common concern, or referenced in another component, them redux it up. If the rest of the app doesn't know/care then scope that state.

If you're using Provider or subscribe() you're going to end up hammering lifecycle methods unnecessarily in relatively trivial UI changes. Just seems unnecessary.
