The piece itself seems to contradict its own raison d'etre:

"Rather than ask whether Cleopatra was beautiful, a question that cannot be answered in any event, one should ask whether she was desirable."

Clearly, due to the legacy of her charmingness and communicative powers, the answer to that is yes. Since "beauty" is a social construct that is somewhat impervious to even objective analyses, I doubt that any analysis of ancient sources such as busts or anecdotal accounts could be accurate. We know that eye-witness testimony is inaccurate and unreliable today, therefore why should we trust it from ancient times? Well, it's the only source available, which is both a good and bad excuse. In the end, I think it's sufficient to say: Cleoparta certainly had a profound effect, whether or not that was due to her beauty, her charisma, or if mythologized. She has entered the public consciousness and is unlikely to leave it.

Yes, that's how the laws work. Future laws narrow/refine previous ones unless they are found to be unconstitutional on specific grounds or spell out exceptions.

We have been running with courts writing laws for years -- banana republics had less judicial interference into purview of legislative branch/executive branch. Now the rubber band is snapping the other way and those who have been happy at letting courts to write laws because it was their men/women on courts are now freaking out. Just wait until Kennedy retires in August and Trump gets another originalist there -- outsource unpopular legislation to courts group is in for a world of hurt for decades.

Edit: Not liking that water is wet does not change that the water is wet. Downvotes are not going to change this SCOTUS decision or other coming SCOTUS decision. Neither would they change a retirement of a swing vote and neither would they change that it will happen when Trump is in office and republicans control the Senate.
Well attributing Roman statues is hard, in particular because every single collector, antiques dealer and museum curator in the last 2000 years had a strong incentive to identify his statue as one of the big guys. [0]

And additionally, they come from a tradition of visual representation, where the easiest attribution is always Alexander, when he was depicted with rams horns. [1]

[0] Except if there is an antique inscription, which there isn't if the statues is supposed to depict Caesar. Mary Beard has an entire, and quite entertaining lecture on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-JelaK-bAA

... which is why the blog post is about figuring out how to decrypt the underlying storage that ssh-agent reads from to get to the private key.

Edit: If your point was specifically about this from EvanAnderson's comment

then the "user" there is the abstract identity used to locate and decrypt the private key, not the human invoking ssh-agent.

Small correction, the free edition used to support 50 users. I know this because a company that I work for still has it (we only need about 15 users). Still not enough for the size of OPs company.
Why would you think it's BS? The Model S gets over-the-air updates all the time; if I recall correctly, they increased the ride height a while ago through an update after a car drove over a metal wotsit, causing a puncture in the battery compartiment and a fire.

They can probably update the settings for the brakes as well, as long as the underlying mechanicals support it.

Having done this with MySQL before, there‘s basically three things you can do:
1) Do what you proposed, but this kinda defeats the whole purpose, as that side table can get very, very large (and if it‘s not fitting into working memory anymore, good luck keeping up a sane insert rate).
2) Just don‘t load that kind of data into an RDS subject to these scaling limitations at all (what I would do nowadays, but in a lot of ways, easier said than done)
3) (what we did back then): If you can, accept a window of uniqueness instead of real, true global uniqueness. If you can live with that, define a cronjob to build you a VIEW on the last TODAY-N partitions and check for duplicates using that in a SELECT CTE before inserting.

Yes, there are instances of decades of legal precedent being overturned. In the case of Janus though I think it's a bit different. For one, I think the argument that being forced to pay fair share dues constitutes compelled speech is not even specious. It's, on it's face, wrong in my opinion. So Janus appears from my perspective to be more on the legislative side. This is especially so given that Gorsuch in the ruling that the thread is nominally about said that it's up to the legislature to change things.
To me, it is disturbing. I get used to the way my vehicle handles, for it to suddenly change because of a software update could potentially be dangerous- but would almost certainly result in a trip to the mechanic for a checkup.

Generally speaking, you'll want to present both. "From 6th to 7th grade, I went from 200 cm to 205 cm in height, a 2.5% increase." Otherwise, as you say, people will ask for N= or for %, or even starting asking for median IQR and statistical tests of difference. I do tire of oversimplistic analyses in popular media which present whichever one of the above measures is most in line with their narrative.
There seems to be an innate human behavior of creating distinct mental "spaces" where people behave in certain ways toward different ends with different social roles. Work, Home, Church/Temple, Bar, Sports Club etc... each have different contexts, and blending them is often seen as anathema and harmful and "unbalanced."

Each of those groups have their own weird baggage and each person has biases towards them good or bad, which makes the concept of one being worse than the others, with no explicit overarching narrative, seem silly.

I'd be curious the socio-political origins of this set of groupings, because it seems at once natural and irrational.

This just points me to the fact that the vast majority of humans have no grand narrative and are totally infested with cognitive dissonance between these worlds. They fall into local minima in each of these areas and the most mediocre people I've met measure their time based on how much they spend in these different contexts.

Alternatively I view the world from the perspective of: "I have approximately 27,000 days in this world, what will I do with them?"

> This causes search engine technology to remain largely a black art and to be advertising oriented (see Appendix A). With Google, we have a strong goal to push more development and understanding into the academic realm.

> One of our main goals in designing Google was to set up an environment where other researchers can come in quickly, process large chunks of the web, and produce interesting results that would have been very difficult to produce otherwise. In the short time the system has been up, there have already been several papers using databases generated by Google, and many others are underway. Another goal we have is to set up a Spacelab-like environment where researchers or even students can propose and do interesting experiments on our large-scale web data.

From Appendix A

> Currently, the predominant business model for commercial search engines is advertising. The goals of the advertising business model do not always correspond to providing quality search to users. For example, in our prototype search engine one of the top results for cellular phone is "The Effect of Cellular Phone Use Upon Driver Attention", a study which explains in great detail the distractions and risk associated with conversing on a cell phone while driving. This search result came up first because of its high importance as judged by the PageRank algorithm, an approximation of citation importance on the web [Page, 98]. It is clear that a search engine which was taking money for showing cellular phone ads would have difficulty justifying the page that our system returned to its paying advertisers. For this type of reason and historical experience with other media [Bagdikian 83], we expect that advertising funded search engines will be inherently biased towards the advertisers and away from the needs of the consumers.

[…]

> Furthermore, advertising income often provides an incentive to provide poor quality search results. For example, we noticed a major search engine would not return a large airline's homepage when the airline's name was given as a query. It so happened that the airline had placed an expensive ad, linked to the query that was its name. A better search engine would not have required this ad, and possibly resulted in the loss of the revenue from the airline to the search engine. In general, it could be argued from the consumer point of view that the better the search engine is, the fewer advertisements will be needed for the consumer to find what they want. This of course erodes the advertising supported business model of the existing search engines. However, there will always be money from advertisers who want a customer to switch products, or have something that is genuinely new. But we believe the issue of advertising causes enough mixed incentives that it is crucial to have a competitive search engine that is transparent and in the academic realm.

Bill Gates: 5 books worth reading this summer
>I was so sure I was right. Then they introduced me to the idea you can drive in the US with insurance that wouldn't even cover the costs of a new medium sized sedan.

Yup. I mean, obviously, many people would not be able to afford reasonable levels of insurance, so instead of subsidizing public transit, or even directly subsidizing auto insurance or something, instead we leave it so that the costs of accidents are borne by victims who are unlucky enough to be hit by people who are carrying minimum driving insurance.

This means that if you are a responsible driver, you not only carry substantial liability insurance, in case you hurt someone else, but you also carry substantial 'uninsured motorist' coverage, which covers you in case someone who has minimum insurance hurts you.

Because of this, the cost of insurance varies radically; from almost nothing to rather more than the cost of a new compact car. And it scales, usually, with income, which is fine, really, but I think the way we do it (by throwing people who can't afford that rather expensive 'uninsured motorist' coverage or people who are hit outside their cars under the bus) is pretty messed up.

Anti-tank missile found in server room
Maybe in some fantasy corporation-league version of America, but I see a constant stream of "oh, you lobbyists want concessions for your anonymous sponsors/donors/owners? Sure, always glad to get more votes paid for!"

The only way to keep the general populace from getting trampled as far as they will allow is to push back against all this.

I've said elsewhere, vote out every incumbent Congressperson. Once the current paid members are gone, if the new set appears to be voting by donor status, vote them out too.

Keep voting them out until we find a few decent souls who realize that we the people are serious about being represented, not sold.

I would use campaign contribution reports as a "who should be first out the door" list... individual personal donations of fixed maximum size only, everything else counts against.
My understanding is that car brakes can generally exert more braking force than the tire's grip on the road. A long stopping distance may represent a problem with the anti-lock braking system (which is likely software controlled, and can be updated over the air).

I have a license and a car, my girlfriend doesn't.

My girlfriend takes an Uber home from work every day right now (I drop her off in the morning then head to work. I'm still at work when she gets off work). It costs her an average of $25 per trip. 25 * 5 days a week * 4 weeks per month = $500/month in expenses. That's for a single 20 minute Uber (usually Lyft now, it's been cheaper) a day, that's it. I'm surprised the OP can get away with $167 in Uber expenses doing without two cars as the OP suggests.

It's about 40 extra miles I drive a day for her also, since her work is in the opposite direction of mine, so tack on the extra maintenance required for 800 miles per month on my car (hasn't been too much yet, but the car is starting to get old... let's say $40/month ), along with that much in gas (right now about $104 a month), and our total cost per month for her to go without a car is $644 a month.

My car payment is about $300 a month, so let's assume she can find the same or even less in a lease, especially since her credit is better, and I already estimated the fuel and maintenance as $140, but it'd transfer over to her paying it. Then she'd probably have to pay about $100 a month for car insurance (I pay less, but she'd be a new driver), and therefore our total costs for her to drive are probably around $540 a month, or about $100 a month cheaper.

To me that's a pretty slim margin. The main reason I wouldn't mind her starting to drive is it wouldn't be necessary to take her to certain places and save me an hour out of the day every day, not due to savings. Which I always assumed we would save a lot of money if she drove, until I did the math.

Also I live in the suburbs so if neither of us had cars our Uber expenses would be like $2006 a month, not per year, based on how much we drive currently. But it does look like having only 1 car in the household might be feasible, instead of the assumed 1 car per individual, like was the default in the previous generation.
I just renewed my insurance in SF for $555/6 months. I have progressive, high deductible but coverage for me, other driver and all that (100/300/100).

I would make a slightly different point:

The best way to earn is to find people who are willing to trade with you in a way that is fair for both of you.

For example, I've worked (as in full time paid) for companies where I was told "Do X and we will pay you $Y". Upon completion of X, there was no $Y. This is an example of unfair trading aka not keeping up their end of the deal.

I've also worked, for very little or no pay, and done even better work and the people/companies I worked for did exactly what they said they were going to do.

Everyone has a different value space. If you are young and your time is cheap and you have lots of energy, find someone who needs that and is willing to trade you (ideally explicitly) for that in return for whatever you desire. That could be money, status, knowledge, experience etc
I think the implicit question is "can an OTA somehow improve braking performance - why isn't it optimal already?" not "do Tesla OTAs change other aspects of the car?"
The problem is that its hard to find more calories/$ without investment in ingredients and a kitchen; it's hard to fault the poorest people for buying what seems economically rational in the short term.
I never said I thought it was BS. I was curious what the physical mechanism to change the braking characteristics was. If there was no physical mechanism that I assume it's BS.
It strikes me as not a coincidence that they are also the company in the big few which most highly values its users' privacy. Still not great, but it's something.

>food products on an airplane destined for Europe. At the same time, another team was busy unloading sacks with food aid from a second plane.

while everyone should acknowledge the degree of poverty that is still rampant in countries like Ethiopia, that image is not particularly well suited to make a point.

It can be true that at the same time that Ethiopian farmers sell produce to Europe, while people from somewhere else try to alleviate poverty in the country.

It would not make sense for farmers in Ethiopia to stop trading food with the world at large just because people in the country are hungry. In fact, depending on whatever economic transaction is going on, the food coming in might be significantly cheaper than the food going out. Trade and reducing poverty or hunger are not at odds.

The goal should be to generate better incomes and social services for poor Ethiopians, not stopping businesses from trading with Ethiopia globally.

>The reason it's more expensive to own a car is because you also own the asset. And sure, cars depreciate ridiculously fast and are horrible stores of value, but your solution is mostly saving money by offloading some risk to another party.

This is not why there are savings. You are not offloading the risk of owning a car by using uber, you are allowing cars to be used more efficiently. Cars are expensive because they sit unused 95% of the time. The marginal cost of each ride is extremely high. By having one car and one driver do 100x the rides the marginal cost of each ride decreases substantially.
