Shuttle booster 'reuse' was a misnomer: they were pretty much completely rebuilt each time, and cost more to rebuild than build from scratch. See: https://www.quora.com/Space-Shuttle-How-much-money-was-saved...
I doubt any stats on this exists, so I'm referring to my own anecdotal experience. In my small hometown in northern NJ, they did, in fact, shut them down frequently. Unless you can prove otherwise, I am not sure the point of your comment.
It's the Zenimax buyout and John Carmack stepping down & out. It's the end of the iD era.
Sure. And it's also possible to explain to a homebody who is not afraid of traveling what another country is like, but nothing can replace going there first hand and experiencing life in that place.
After just reading the title I thought this was going to be an article about all of the bots "painting the tape" and manipulating bitcoin prices on various exchanges.
I was looking into it a bit today, but was discouraged after hearing some comments about having to specialize on the application source level to accommodate the GAE environment, and that you have to use their proprietary non-relational database.

Are those things true, or as significant as they sound? (Not being able to directly port my source to another service sounds quite risky...)
Please don't. Even if you're completely right, the container can't hold it. It will invariably degenerate to the same template as every other ideological/religious flamewar. That's just the way internet forums are, and on this one we're hoping to exercise different muscles.

Testing doesn't actually tell you anything. Were I designing this fan, I would only activate the attack payload if the fan was connected X number of times, or after some specific date in the future to defeat this kind of analysis.

I think you need to just tear one down and see what's connected. It should be trivial to identify if only the power connectors are hooked up, or if the data connectors are also hooked up.
How about no. I just bought a single unit and it covers my entire house and gets security updates for a few years and it costs way less than $360 every 3 years. I literally can buy multiple routers and come in less than that for better than what they offer. Not to mention that this "model" requires a government mandate to work otherwise cheap Chinese knock offs with good enough security will flood the market. As a liberal, I've seen enough of the government and their idea of "the internet".
That happens sometimes -- lava filled a bay in Hawaii just last week :P
I doubt the underlying chemistry is unable to produce elastomeric products. Especially if you look at e.g. 2 part Polyurethanes, you see that while they aren't healthy in their uncured state, they are not fundamentally unable to be made into a non-liquid form, as they don't fundamentally rely on being a liquid.
I've always been confused about how people could consider D3 to be a charting library. It provides nothing that is specific to drawing any particular chart. What it provides is strictly DOM manipulation. If you don't know how to write the HTML or SVG necessary to make the chart you want, D3 isn't going to do anything for you.

Now, as a DOM manip lib, I certainly like it a lot better than something like jQuery, but some of the newer offerings like React are a little more intentionally designed and don't have as many anachronistic design choices. D3 is just too much its own thing. There aren't many other JS libraries that follow the same DSL pattern that they've developed for it, so it can take quite a lot of ramp up time to get people used to it.
These are actually immensely popular in China (Or maybe it's a copy?)

This seems pretty cool in principle, but I got as far as a single nonreplicated MDS before I lost interest in trying it out at this stage.

Admittedly, my background is in HPC where metadata performance and reliability requirements would preclude using something like this. Does anyone who is a more familiar with FreeBSD than I am (which is pretty much anyone who’s used it in the last 10 years) have any more information on long their term plans for at least replicated block storage failover or cache coherency in an active/active MDS setup?

Are you joking that the low wages are flowing through to VCs?

Some people wonder whether the VCs will even make out their invested money in Uber/Doordash cases. I've heard that in many cities Uber/Doordash/friends are subsidizing the marginal order in order to grow.

Make no mistake, currently the marginal gains are flowing through to customers. We like to blame faceless large corporations, the "others" for the fall of liveable, stable, wages. But the fault in some sense is in our selves. We, the individual customer, are driving this dynamic by being huge sticklers for the lowest price possible.

We individuals talk a good game about a fair livable society, until it comes around to saving $1 on your next Uber / Doordash fare.
You are being downvoted bc the analogy is bad. Owning a m365 scooter provides 95% of the lime experience. Owning a car provides, like 10% to 50% of the Lyft experience, depending on many personal/geo variables.
In Australia, the people who look to be doing deliveries of this sort (by bike, etc) seem to be students. Actually, I can't recall ever (20 years+) having had takeaway delivered by anyone who looks over about 30-35yo.

Waitstaff in restaurants are typically younger here too. In visiting the US, it's seemed that there are a lot more "career" waitstaff whereas in Australia that happens more in small owner-operator establishments, or very premium restaurants.

There was an article written by a guy from the Larrabee team, where he explained how the projet wasn't a failure, in the sense that management wanted a processing beast and that's what they got, not a GPGPU.

But what's interesting is that in the article, he said that the Intel GFX dep. were "begging to let them build a GPGPU", and he might have been exagerating but he made it seem like all they needed was to slap some ROPs and texture units on that thing.

That makes me question wether we'll be seeing a brand new architecture, or an Intel HD unleashed edition with some GDDR5.

There is no comparison of dimensions of what the US went through and what Europe was going through. In the US you had the ability to turn to farming yourself and survive, whereas you couldn't in Europe.

And also you have to take into account the extreme levels of poverty that were standard at the time. Just having your farm with your family and kids would mean that the smallest health issue starved the entire family to death. The process was gruesome to todays standards, and it is reprehensible to what we do and can do today but it turned a world with 90%+ extreme povery into a 40% extreme poverty in a century, unlike anything before in history.
12mph is way too fast for a sidewalk. (Thus these scooter sharing startups will die.)

If an olympic athlete who runs at 12mph did his daily run on a sidewalk, people would be really, really angry. 12mph is fast. A police officer would stop him.
If there is anything beautiful about Uber it's that the marketplace maintained in each city is a relatively pure expression of supply and demand.

A recession in which unemployment rates increase would probably lead to an increase in drivers (supply) from the displaced employees and a decrease in people with disposable income to take Ubers (demand) leading to a reduction in cost per ride and the associated driver wages (unit price). Given the sheer number of countries Uber operates in, the company has probably already seen this happen more than once. What happens to driver wages and Uber as a company in the event of a global recession is harder to predict since that would be unprecedented for the company.

Maybe having Uber available as a source of income during a recession would be a good thing for the recently unemployed?

All of the rubber feet on my Macbook Pro degraded or fell off within a couple of years of purchase. I replaced them all with Sugru. They look better than the originals and have lasted longer.
My thoughts on the content of the article:

(1) According to Ray Dalio's theory of long-term credit cycles, we should be healthiest in the decade after a credit crunch.

(2) When the article says that Apple could use its $210B to buy the bottom 480 companies of the S&P 500, it means any one of the bottom 480 companies. As worded, that sentence is ambiguous at best and deceptive at worst.

(3) I don't understand the author's point that companies with the most buybacks saw their value go down the most. Like, isn't that exactly what you would expect? If Apples gives $210B to shareholders, now Apple is worth $210B less.

(4) No evidence is given for the claim that all of these companies intended to use their buybacks to prop up their stock price. I doubt any evidence exists. Quite possibly, crummy companies like Sears are buying back stock because returning money to shareholders is better than building new Sears stores.

(5) Does it really matter that much if claims on companies' future profits are shifting from risky equity to risky bonds? I honestly don't know.

(6) The article argues that the rise of bond ETFs over the past decade ($15B to $300B, 20x) shows the rise of bonds. But, honestly, most of that comes from the rise of ETFs, not the rise of bonds. Over the same time period, the total ETF market, which is mostly equities, grew from $700B in 2008 to $4,600B in 2017.

(7) A lot these 'one decade ago' statistics are hard to interpret, since one of the endpoints was in the middle of a terrible financial crisis.

(8) The numbers on household credit card debt seem very tragic. I wish I understood more how people use credit cards.
Sorry Dang, I've brought up the topic before and it's been flagged as well. I guess I need another forum.
For the record, I also think it is an insane practice and would personally take the buyback as an opportunity to sell. That being said, here is a view from which it might make sense:

0) Assume that there is an optimum debt/equity ratio for a company (no idea how it shakes out in practice, but there is probably some rule or theory that suggests an optimum debt level, like the Kelly Criterion suggests an optimum quantity to risk compared to available capital).

1) The accountants have calculated that due to the difference between your return on capital and the market interest rate, you should have borrowings equal to 20% of your shareholders equity.

2) The company's shareholder equity grows organically because it is doing well.

3) The company wants a higher debt/capital ratio, and investors are demanding some profit be returned to them, so borrow the dividend money directly and gives it out as a share buyback, optimising the debt/equity ratio at the same time. This is an administratively neat way of getting the money for the buyback together in one place.

There is a fuzzy spot in the argument in that you are returning money to investors at the same time as your return on capital is better than the market, but stranger decisions get made. CEOs and investors don't complain about high stock prices.
It can't. $210 billion can buy you any one of 480 companies in the S&P 500.

Buying all of the S&P 500 would take roughly $24 trillion.

The article's wording on that point was very ambiguous and misleading. I had the same reaction! :)

Nope(sorry I'm OP but using my home account). I'm nearsighted. I was eventually diagnosed as slightly bipolar(agitated depressed), but that was after my experience with psychedelics. FWIW, I believe the life changing experience was caused by something other than LSD. A friend got tie-dye blotter from the Grateful Dead parking lot around '90. I took two tabs. It lasted around 21 hours, which is odd for LSD. Definite LSD-like effects(time dilation, huge trails, tunnel-vision in the early stages...). It was blotter though, so it limits the number of RCs it could have been.

Also I ended up with essential tremor, ticks, and restless leg syndrome. That runs in my family though. I probably have mutations in my dopamine system.
Make www and the apex domain resolve to the app, not the marketing site. For non-logged-in users (or if you want to, everyone), the app proxies / to the marketing site. For all requests, it proxies the handful of other path prefixes you use (beginning with /about, /tour, /contact, etc.). The user only ever sees one hostname.

> I would have thought that you do it by (expected) lifetime of the panels.

That would certainly make the most sense to me, and maybe even based on the warranty period, with accounting for replacing failing or underperforming panels after that.

That way, the statement, which sounds too good to be true, "and then the cost drops to zero" doesn't enter into the conversation. Sure, the monthly cashflow cost may be zero for a while, but that might just be accounting trickery.
Possible correction: this does not appear to be an example of machine bias. It's also important to keep in mind that there can be other sources (such as brittleness) of bad ML outcomes than bias.

When I do an exact search for the Justification Sentence with Google, what best matches is a quote by Rajiv Gandhi. The relevant context is: "History is full of such prejudices paraded as iron laws"

His stance is clearly opposite to what the extracted text implies. This is a common problem with knowledge extraction and one I've run into often myself.

Extracting just a phrase, or utterances of a generative model cannot be trusted because the original meaning can be opposite to what is presented. Existing models fail to preserve nuance imparted by context, struggle with negation, lack deep understanding and an ability to truly reason.
The new deal happened because of the depression, not because of social movements. No depression , no New deal. It was also the winds of the time to turn to welfare states.
Nod. Apropos bogosity, the underlying idea is this. Science education illustrations often have some aspects which are crafted with great care for accuracy, and other aspects that are artistic-license psychedelic bogosity. But students often lack the understanding to distinguish which are which. Leaving their grip on reality quite compromised. So if you can do anything to make it easier for them - yay.

The DOE (and DOD, but with whom I’m less familiar) tends to spread out these purchases over multiple vendors to keep multiple US-based providers able to build and support these machines (and I imagine to keep costs competitive).

The last few acquisitions by ORNL and LANL have been Crays while ANL and LLNL were buying IBM Blue Genes. With this generation, it looks like things have switched. As another poster mentioned, it certainly seems like ANL’s next one will be Cray/Intel. It was going to be based on Knight’s Hill, but Intel cancelling that sort of put the architecture up for grabs.
Maybe this will help, it creates an SVG graphic by default.

Consider how much JS you'd have to write to even start creating all the frameworks to build in native SVG structures... a lot.

I created html graphs with tables in the late 90s, made Flash graphs in 2000s, upgrades to numerous JS based charting libraries after this, building custom graphs the whole way.

I had looked at D3 so many times over the years when it first showed up online. But it "looked" complicated, no obvious "chart" library, etc...

These scooter businesses are like studies in ways to lose money! Another one is: what happens when at scale the Chinese manufacturers can get these things into LA and NY for $200 direct to consumer, not $500? Most business do better when inputs get cheaper. But Lime will just see demand evaporate as people buy their own little scooters.
Raising money to help the homeless is needed, but I really don't understand why Seattle felt it needed an extra tax on businesses. In my mind:

1. Cost of living and property values go up in the city

2. Higher property values mean more property taxes go into the coffer

3. Spend some of that money on helping those negatively effected by rising cost of living and property value

Instead Seattle wanted both the extra property tax income and an extra business tax. Seems sketchy to me. Where is all that property tax money going and how much is being wasted that they can't put together $48 million to help the homeless?

Especially when the city is already going to be raising property taxes even more on top of the added base value of the properties. In some places the property tax is going up as much as 30% and on average 17% in 2018! King County is going to get $5.6 billion in property tax in 2018. In comparison $48 million is a tiny number.

Never seen a vatrushka with onions in my life and I'm pretty sure no one I know would ever call a pastry with onions a "vatrushka". It's all about quark and raisins, even a round shape doesn't really matter that much anymore. I mean, show that onion-filled open-top pastry thing to about anyone Russian-born — they'll just say it's some kind of "пирожок", hardly anybody would call it a vatrushka. Show them that specific oven-cooked quark-and-raisins dish of any form — they'll most likely say it's a vatrushka. So, by definition of a language — it kinda is.

By the way, onions are not mentioned neither in Russian or Ukrainian wiki-pages.

You make a lot of good points but I question this,

> And foregoing profit to starve the market is also a perfectly valid strategy. In other words, the lack of profit is intentional and easily reversed at will.

If they start raising rates what stops their customer base from migrating? I see how companies capture their community and there is friction to move, such as Facebook or even Twitter or Reddit.

I don't see the same loyalty to Uber. My speculation is the real decider will be self driving vehicles and I have no inside knowledge of how far these companies are but I also think there is an issue of superficial good enough vs true self sufficient (and safe) driving vehicles.

I would bet on Waymo over Uber, I just don't see how the business model of subsidized fares is sustainable or easily reversible without creating space in the market for competitors (and self driving is on the horizon).

There is no network effect like Uber/Lyft. Uber/Lyft traverse geographical boundaries, stitching together markets. Scooters don't. Uber/Lyft have network effect on the driver side. Scooters don't.
The answer is simple, and sad. We (I am Greek) missed out on the Renaissance and the Enlightenment because we were under the boot of the Ottoman empire for 400 years.

By the time we achieved freedom, we were a backwater too far behind everyone else in Europe to be competitive.
It's been interesting and sad to watch the definition of "startup" transform from the bootstrapped style "group of friends" company like Id Software who... well, defined the damn term - into the VC-funded "startups" of today. If anything startups today look like insanely corporate structures to me, answering to "the man" before they even get off the ground much less accomplish anything of note.

Certainly strange to watch the definition shift over time.
