See, but with Disney, at least there's an outside chance they try an Old Republic movie. So long as Lucas held the keys, nothing at all was going to be made except for cartoons mistakingly marketed at children. And books that had a limited audience.

My question to you: Have they thrown it away by making Solo? It all still exists, and they're apparently full-steam ahead making new products with that IP.
I’m a real person and I read the book and I enjoyed it. I will say any “self-help” style book like his just has quotes like that and you can never tell if they are legit.

If you’ve read the “hard thing about hard things”, i found it pretty similar. It’s a mix of an autobiography as well as listing out his main life principles. It gets repetitive sometimes and I wish he’d get more specific in the details but overall I recommend it. Especially if you are in some sort of leadership or management position
somebody should put wireless chargers into the cement and throw some super capacitors onto these scooters for temporary boosts (like going up hill or out of a corner, long stretches, etc)... like the f-zero charging/booster things.
The primary parties will never approve of IRV nor proportional representation because it hurts their chances of winning. The partisan divide is a good motivator for forcing people into one camp or the other.
If you continue to break the site guidelines we will ban you.
Thanks for offering your perspective on this. I obviously can't speak to what it's like personally - I'm only going off of others' experience and my own intuition for what it would feel like.

> The part that affects me isn’t the word itself, and I don’t personally feel offended by a stranger using it. ...

This is kind of the point I'm trying to make further down the thread. There's a lot of folks saying that 4chan's use of this language is a form of community and culture, rather than meant as actual offense. But I don't think that makes it okay for exactly the point you make here.

The math is very simple, you need about $30k/year which is $50k pre-tax. That is 50 hours a week at $20/hour with no weeks of vacation + school.

It is extremely difficult to make $50k/year with no degree or experience. That is almost the house hold median income in the US (2 people working). (Currently: $59k/year)
That’s not a very accurate analogy. The situation would be more like “you can only use a pre-compiled, audited version of OpenSSL”, which makes much more sense. Of course you could audit source code as well, but it’s much harder to verify than a binary.

Saving 60% of your income is an achievable goal.

Start at say 25 and that's going to give you a much better than 1:10 chance of being able to very comfortably retire someplace cheap. If nothing else 1 year of work = 1.5 years not working, but at 4% return (over inflation) and 15% investment taxes you can retire in 15 years.

I feel like this whole thing with the GDPR is people fighting each other for the wrong reasons.

The people for it argue that gets large companies to behave better.

The people against it argue that it's unnecessarily complicated, poorly drafted and burdensome to small businesses.

But it's both at the same time.

The issue is that it doesn't have to be. It's possible to get the desired effect without using such a complicated system, and to mitigate the impact it imposes.

For example, one of the major burdens on small businesses is the cost of producing the data the company has on you -- but there is a simple way to fix that. Require the requester to pay the cost of collecting the information, similar to FOIA requests in the US. Then the requirement is no longer an unfunded mandate and can't be used by griefers as a method of harassment.

Nobody bothered to use common sense like that when drafting it, so now in order to fix it, it has to be thrown out and rewritten. But then the people who support the spirit of the law end up fighting against the people who oppose the letter of the law, even though everybody really wants the same thing.
Which sites in 2018 still present multiple CAPTCHAs to users with cookies and JavaScript enabled?

I think the theory behind this project is that those problems are primarily caused by Tor's popular image as a 'fringe network for pedophiles and drug dealers' and that by making it more mainstream they can fix those issues.

(please more replies saying "that sounds really hard" and less replies saying "tor is not a fringe network for pedophiles and drug dealers", thanks)
I'm glad 4chan is still here. To me, it feels like it's the only thing that's still from the internet for the internet. A site that doesn't want to make a profit from you. It's purpose is to share information.
Whoops, sorry, it's the third largest but the formal opposition party. If you consider the coalition to be "the ruling party" then AfD would be the second largest, but that would be an abuse of terminology.

It'd have been better to say the second largest power bloc.

I think the Effective Altruism movement is great. I was wondering recently what the most effective way would be to donate money specifically to help the less fortunate within California, and unfortunately it is not clear to me how to do it. GiveWell seems to do a pretty good job evaluating charities fighting diseases in poor countries, so hopefully similar operations spring up to evaluate other types of charity as well.
Dutch guy here. 29km/h on a bike without a helmet is absolutely safe over here, and everyone is doing it with E-Bikes all the time, every day. Never have I heard of a friend or family member falling from their bike with any injury on the head; A broken arm at worst.

It is nice to see interview process spelled out in exact steps, it speaks for company clarity culture and it will unwind cognitive load on the candidate ..

If you can show an inefficient market experimentally whenever you want, that's good enough to disprove EMH. The EMH doesn't say, "All information is normally factored into the price, except for technicalities."

I like your drug trial example but a "hypothetical ideal expert" isn't assured to exist. Do you have an existence proof?

On the other hand, unique prime factorization is assured, we know that given infinite time anyone can factor any large number.
> is this maybe an east coast / west coast thing?

It might be a little bit east coast / west coast and a little bit of a DC thing. People in DC seem to take themselves a bit too seriously, so looking silly during your commute, where you might be seen by coworkers, is maybe more undesirable here than elsewhere.

This isn't a dig against DC. I live here and love it. I also enjoy the scooters.
I'm aware, thanks! :)

Several reasons I don't use /g/:

* I don't want to look at images.

* I don't want to search for the threads I want, they should all be in one board, that's the whole point.

* The fact that /prog/ was killed in the first place when a textboard like it couldn't POSSIBLY be accounting for much bandwidth anyways is proof enough that 4chan wanted to appeal to a wider range of users. I took the hint.

* Finally, the type of users that use /g/ are not the people I want to have discussions with anyways, even if it's programming-related. Lots of /prog/ users only used /prog/, back before it was killed.
This is just my opinion. All of those actors are great! They were just not very good in star wars
Even as a massive sceptic of Cyberpunk AI (and for that matter, the efficacy of preventing it by setting up charities to do AI research), I think people are perfectly entitled to spend their money on it if it's what they're interested in. I also think it's plausible some such programmes might create extremely commercially valuable byproducts even though they don't lead anywhere useful directly, much like the Apollo missions.

Trouble is, if you invest enormous amounts of time and energy in arguing that a general belief stuff might work isn't good enough for philanthropy and even writing "why we don't recommend" articles about specific charities dispensing aid that don't deprive enough people of it to have a control group for RCTs, you deserve every criticism you get when you then funnel foundation money to very well-funded AI startups with unfalsifiable solutions to a purely hypothetical problem, even if you didn't have close personal relationships with people working for them. Even though I consider some EA analysis to be good and well reasoned (and they're certainly not the only people making evidence based bearish arguments about, say, microfinance) it's a little difficult to see how AI research could possibly pass a decision-making heuristic so supposedly rigorous that it writes off sanitation as an area to invest in because the estimations of diarrhea reduction aren't blinded. Ultimately, EAs have their cognitive biases just like anyone else, and I'm more sympathetic than they are to aid organizations' view that conducting RCTs is difficult and expensive and they don't want people suffering in control groups to quantify how well common sense healthcare interventions work, and disagree that such organizations should be held to higher standards of analytical rigour than AI researchers hoping to be Sarah Connor.

9/11 was not a military attack, it was a terrorist attack, and terrorism is a law enforcement problem. As evidenced by the fact that the USA has been killing 'terrorists' in Afghanistan and Pakistan for nearly 20 years now and yet there are still regular Islamic terrorist attacks in Europe.
Likely actual result: Firefox will become increasingly irrelevant.

If Tor is going to be a built-in feature of Firefox, most employers are going to flag it as malware. This is a ridiculously dumb thing on so many levels -- promote privacy by directing your network traffic to "volunteer" proxy services?
I'm an electrical engineer oriented towards signal processing and controls, and I'm also incapable of understanding Matlab's niche and effectiveness. I wish Matlab could just vanish. It's a glorified calculator that has mutated over the years into a crap programming language, with random features just bolted on and the strangest semantics of all time.

It also has the drawback that most of its users generate write-only code, so everyone that learns it also learns to write code that way.
Interesting, but this is an observation study, and thus subject to obvious confounding factors. What comes to mind immediately is someone who is seriously sick (as opposed to a cold) is likely to walk slower, and thus the slow pace is a result not a cause. Surprisingly I didn't see this confounding factor discussed in the paper even though it should be controlled for if possible.

Python is much better than MATLAB in non-mathematical domains. Hell, MATLAB didn't even have arrays of strings until 2017! But in the mathematical area, SciPy is really lacking syntax-wise. Here's a quick side-by-side comparison which is also useful for teaching between the languages:

https://cheatsheets.quantecon.org/

You can go as far as to say that Python is verbose in many cases, and non-intuitive in others (A @ B?).

That said, you would never want to write a webapp in MATLAB, so as people expand from "math scripting" to "programming" they run into MATLAB issues which have absolutely no good solution. This is where the Python pickup comes from: it's still decent for scientific computing, but it also is an actual programming language. However, Julia keeps the nice syntax of MATLAB in the mathematical domain, keeps the technical computing focus of its community, adds some speed, and also is a general-purpose languages where webservers etc. are being written. In that sense, Julia is a really good fit for people looking to ditch MATLAB.

(A lot of MATLAB's bad syntax was bolted on later. It started as MATrix LAB, and later became a programming language. You can easily see the elegance of its initial design, and the terrible choices when extending it.)
What's ironic here is how conservative your position is: defending the status quo that the n-word must reflexively provoke outrage. People are imploring you to accept that times are changing and the word is being disassociated from hate, yet you're sticking to the 40 year old definition because "that's just how it always was".

Doesn't that remind you of something?
can they succeed despite their essential dorkiness?

Far less dorky than a Segway. I think they're playful enough to work from a marketing perspective.

I was bored with new technologies, bored with their repetitive promises, their glassy aesthetic, their oligarchic subsidization.

This sentence is fantastic and absolutely on point! The street finds its own uses for technology.

On that first ride, a few things became apparent. First, I was more likely to respect traffic laws on a scooter than on a bike, because I wasn’t as worried about conserving my momentum on a scooter.

This is a profound observation. Robinson just earned his pay for the week! (A no prize for someone who understands that reference.) What if virtually all bikes had capacitors, regenerative braking, and electric assist? There would be no reason for the endless "momentum hacks" bicyclists are guilty of.
