The SEC spokesperson probably doesn't understand that Ethereum nodes are so centralized that no end users run them and it's even arduous for production environments to keep them up. Given that Ethereum miners can vote for themselves whether or not they increase the Ethereum blocksize, that reduces their competitors which centralizes nodes+miners even more.

You can make a case that, before Ethereum was built, it is was classifiable as a security under the Howey Test. You can also make the case that, after Ethereum was launched, that the ether produce while mining are not securities. But what you cannot deny is that the Ethereum Foundations 70 million ether that they premined(spun ether from straw) are definitely securities.

The number of people who don't understand that there's a centralized 'foundation' holding >~65% of ethereum and the ethereum devs are trying to shift their ecosystem to rewarding and voting on Ethereum blocks with ether is astounding.

Ah, like most of history...

"We are sorry for the inconvenience, but we currently lack objective sensors to send back in time and gather data for an evidence-based approach. We regret to inform you that our history department will be closing after critical objectivity is reached on our campus, anticipated in September of..."

...never. Subjectivity is a natural law, it's universal to the experience of the life form. Objectivity in science is a code name for "measurements that facilitate social bond-building" and while this has its place, the other subjective, theory-generating, guessing-supposing-believing half of our reality cannot be repressed if the results are to be qualitatively "good." We need to become comfortable with, or simply continue to develop as best we can, the deeply organic and chaotic question of quality if we are to evolve beyond current objective limitations. Until then, even "hard science" when pushed to drive out all subjectivity will continue to be filled with scandal, the dark appearance of the subjective realm. The best we know of good must be taught or the repressed spectre will spring us right back to the worst kind of jihad, it will continue to give us the physicists who joined Aum, etc.

I'm curious, you use react-native-navigation. Did you ever try react-navigation? That's what we are currently using. Don't have any strong complaints, but know it does everything in JS. Was wondering if maybe you tried both and have any comments.

On one hand, speculations during an ongoing investigation do not do anything good. Ruining someone's career without actually having all of the facts is poor form.

On the other, criticising a collegue for a mistake that is only obvious in retrospect is also poor sportsmanship.
All that may be bad, but it doesn’t hold a candle to Mao Zedong (49-78 million civilians killed) and Josef Stalin (23 million civilians killed).

Hitler himself ranks third behind those two, at 17 million civilians killed.
Surprised to see "purchased from" paired with "slaves." It shows that the way slaves were treated was more nuanced than I thought. (Perhaps out of guilt? Because it seems any slave owner had enough power over slaves to just take them if desired).

GDPR is an EU mandated protection for the US advertising giants. It guaranteed EU companies can never challenge them in the ad market. It guarantees the EU can never produce a Twitter, Snapchat, Reddit, Google, Facebook, YouTube, or any other consumer advertising platform of consequence. Meanwhile, the US ad market will continue to produce an infinite bounty of vast, expanding profit, filling the coffers of the US giants. Those giants will then leverage that to enter / operate in the EU (even if it requires subsidy from the US profit machine), comply with GDPR, and perpetuate their dominance.
I got a macbook 2016 model with touch bar as a work laptop. I was scared of all things, the lack of esc, ports, magsafe. However after using it for X months, I am never going back.

- The touchbar is great with sliders for brightness and volume. That's ALL I use it for though, so it is a bit under utilized.

- The esc key might be the only minor issue, but it's mostly the lack of feedback.

- Ports - I love having to unplug only one dongle instead of the 4-5 USD/HDMI/ETC/ETC I always have plugged in every time I need to move away. And plugging them all back in is also a single action. I'd be ok with less ports even.

- Magsafe, I still love it but I haven't even missed it.

- No issues with the keyboard and I haven't used function keys in years anyway.

I think it 'clicked' for me after a few weeks of usage, so I understand people judging it or even returning it after a few days.
> I mean couldn't one say that a lot of sys admin jobs have been automated by VM's, further by containers and other automated deployment tools?

I think one could only say that if those jobs didn't still exist with the new name "Devops Engineer".

I would argue that abstraction layers like VMs and containers have a significant potential to create more work, as they increase overall complexity/configurability.

> SRE at Google are responsible for a ridiculous amount of computing power per person.

Although I'm confident Google still has remarkable "compute" infrastructure efficiency, even looking just at human labor, you'd need to count more than just the SREs. You'd certainly need to include all of their network, hardware, and datacenter operations folks, and a good number of their software engineers working on internal tools.

I'm pretty sure people grossly under-estimate how custom and exotic Google's environment is, to the point where it's not possible to translate to something even vaguely close in the rest of the tech world.
A little of both. I do the minimum number of full time hours to get insurance benefits, and then I have a part time job at another tech company. Both of those things are very rare. It took me some time to work things out between the two entities.

I did have some time to work on pet projects and freelance-style (usually free) projects prior to the kids starting sports.

It’s only been mentioned once so I’ll restate it: Gratitude practice. Do more than one if you want. 5 minute journal app is a great start.

I use the app and also do a gratitude practice with my children at the end of the day. Interestingly, no matter how bad my day went, if I end it doing gratitude with my children my recollection of the day is positive. I can be having a day where everything seems to be going wrong and I see no point in even trying to win at life. If I end the day with gratitude and look back on it the next day I feel like “oh, I remember I had some setbacks but it was a good day.” Only happens if I do the practice, otherwise I ruminate for days.
>how do these users vote?

Simple, by running which ever client that has the consensus rule set they want.

>how are they different from miners?

Miners use hashing power to produce blocks that meet users' consensus rules. Users verify these blocks meet their own consensus rules.

e.g. HashingCo uses their miners to produce a block with a blockreward of 12.5 bitcoin. In that block they include a transaction to their power supplier. The power supplier receives the block over the p2p network, checks if it is valid for their consensus rules, and then settles their bill.
If HashingCo produces a block with a 100 bitcoin coinbase reward, sent that block to their power supplier, no amount of hashing will get their supplier to accept it as valid
BTC or BCH ?

They had many similar goals for a pedestrian bridge in California around 2008 or so, but they chose steel instead of concrete, a properly engineered concrete one got much more expensive bids. It's always kind of weirdly delightful to go home from a trip out of town and pass under it on I-280.

That's my point though - that there are a lot of things in the economy where the total dollar value may be high but it's largely the same participants trading amongst themselves, and the contracts net out to some much smaller value. Bitcoin volume and Bitcoin market cap are not unique in this regard.
> Why is criticism viewed to be so dangerous?

Criticism, behind closed doors or strictly in the company of other engineers with the correct training and experience, is not dangerous.

Criticism shared with non-engineers amounts to second-guessing and degrades the trust of the public in the profession as a whole, which has tangible negative outcomes for everyone.

Imagine if every project you'd been on had another developer bending the ear of management saying "oh, that's the wrong editor...oh, that's not the right algorithm to use..."! It'd be awful.

For mechanical and structural engineering, both much more difficult and unknowable than software, it is of the utmost importance not to foment doubt and uncertainty in people who are by definition unqualified to properly understand the criticisms and weight them.

I’m surprised this opinion hasn’t got more traction historically. It seems so obvious...
Despite all the statistical skew, life for the middle and low income people is _drastically_ better in America than most other countries.
I completely agree with you, but there is still the point of 3rd party support and workplace acceptance (this is somewhat similar to the stupid "gaming console war").

The more popular a library is, the more support its ecosystem gets, and the more likely you can convince your boss/company to use it. So if you prefer one, you may really want it to be "the most popular" to ensure you can keep using it.

Eg: people who really like Angular 2+ are kind of struggling right now. If you join a company and they're not already using Angular 2+, good freagin luck. Chances are they won't switch from React/Vue/whatever to it anytime soon.

Because of this, and the general perceived volatility of the JS ecosystem, its not too surprising people treat this as a "war". It's unfortunate.
People say that "you only have to learn a few things to know react" and that with Vue you need to learn this whole API and well that is just too much to learn! These people are of course just trying to find an argument to match their emotional investment in a product. It isn't a real argument and can be refuted with logic and maths.

I started a node/express/vue project about 6 months ago. Here are the APIs and syntaxes and so on I had to learn:

Mongoose API

MongoDb API

Express API

HTML5 Validation and Validity API

Fetch API

Bootstrap 4 API

Flexbox

some new javascript concepts like destructuring

Webpack/source maps/hot modules

Node

The differences between importing/exporting modules in node and the browser

Oh yeah, and the Vue API. You know what percentage of learning the Vue API was? About 0.01%. What is even more ridiculous is that it wasn't even the learning of the API that took the most time.

All of the concepts in Vue/React take more time to learn than the API of Vue. The differences between data and props, what reactivity is, how single page routing works, how components work, and so on. In fact, as React is so barebones, it probably requires more learning than Vue because you have to find all the other libraries to make it the full product.
Hi Latteland, I'm in the bay area, California. I'm hidden behind a throwaway account to protect my identity. Sorry to come across as braggy I don't mean for it to.
Americans historically don't want an efficient government fucking them over efficiently. What do you want to do so efficiently at a national level? National defense, I'd agree, but with nuclear weapons, the early American ideal of no standing army seems like something to go back to.

If this is true, then why are there such extreme consequences to not sleeping for extended periods in mammals ?

Without REM sleep (deep sleep does not work by itself), you lose control of your emotions in 2 days at most. You go insane between 1 and 2 weeks (mania, depression, and likely quick switches between those 2), and your body will physically shut down and die a week or so after that. (note that in humans it hasn't been well established that death occurs, for obvious reasons. In mice, however, it's well studied and accepted. No sleep for ~10 days, half of the mice just die).

This seems to be a bit at odds with the idea that it's just a brain warming technique.

> Comparisons in Google Trends are extremely easy to manipulate (or just interpret wrong). The ".js" you added to Vue is killing its results, and the generic term "react" is propping that one up.

The search I linked to is not a keyword search but rather extracted topics. Your criticism is just based on misunderstanding how Google trends work. Not saying it is accurate but in both of your "corrections" to my link you are getting less accurate Google Trend results.
Seems to be good enough for them. If it's a problem for someone, that someone should fix it.
> For Vue to catch up to the number of React stars would mean that their rate of starring is significantly higher.

That's pretty interesting actually, and presumably means a lot of people find Vue interesting, yet it's not as widely adopted as React.

> The writing is clearly on the wall (or the stars are on github), Vue is definitely going to overtake React usage in the long run unless another new library appears or React changes significantly.

I mean, that is if React usage slows down and Vue's continues to grow. I didn't draw that conclusion from the links you provided (but I didn't conclude otherwise either).

Edit: a downvote with no reply? Why the downvote? Did I say something that's wrong?
Microwaves work by heating the polar molecules in liquid solution, which essentially means water in food. If you've got food with some kind of crust, the crust tends to be dehydrated. Consequently, the crust doesn't get much heating, particularly when compared to the internal melange.

In that vein, it's not really wrong to say that the food is cooked from the inside out, so long as you don't understand to mean that it is literally cooked from the exact middle. The heating is still coming from the interior which is conducting heat to the exterior shell; that's it the outermost layers of the interior filling that's heating, not the innermost layers, is a minor detail by comparison.
I will take a stap at comparing npm vs pypi.

While this will be anecdotal I found my `pip freeze` packages a lot more manageable compared to `npm ls --parseable`.

My Full Stack Flask application sits at about 64 requirements. Where last time I used expressjs my dependancies inside of node_modules inside of node_modules border-lined to insanity.

I can see myself hand picking and reviewing my requirements.txt, which I did to some extent.

But I just gave up with npm.

Which is a bit of a personal dilemma for me, because some of my tooling needs npm.

Facebook invest in the part of ReactNative that they care. Other companies can invest in the other parts that they care.

Isn't that the point of Open source? Project gets better by everyone scratching their own itches, which collectively means everywhere got scratched.

Where are you located ? Accounting and tax laws vary from country to country and even within States in countries such as United States. From a US perspective, I can refer some good ones in the state of NJ/NY area but outside those, I am afraid I don't have much to say.

Also when you say "accountant", are you generalizing the need for accounting AND taxation ? For example, some accountants specialize in taxes while some don't. Of course, most good ones have an idea but if you start getting specific and complex, you may sometimes need a tax attorney instead of regular accountant.

Exactly this - giant solar farm for rocket fuel production, turn it off at night, turn it down or off during dust storms. Rocket fuel could be used during these lulls (nights/storms) to provide power, maybe recapturing the exhaust gases as pure feedstock.

edit - batteries might be the better option for overnight, but would have serious mass penalty to use for long term backup power. Using fuel as storage is simple solution.
As a business owner I'd be VERY interested in something (fad or not) that cuts development time and complexity by a substantial amount. As a developer I want to use things that make my life vastly easier and lets me focus on the product rather than the programming.

Trying new things and taking risks can yield huge rewards! Of course it can fail spectacularly as well but for those that worry about that a lot, jQuery UI still exists!
Not all IP theft is considered criminal, so OP is asking a legitimate question. Sometimes it's only civil, like patent infringement or trademark infringement. Other times it can be criminal, like trade secrets (only recently it appears?) and copyright violations.
