I have no idea where you got that interpretation from my comment.

The person who committed the murder is clearly not mentally healthy.

What about this observation puts any amount of blame on the victim?

This murder is sad, and a tragedy for anyone connected to either party.

Am I the only one who views pennies like an extreme annoyance? I would rather throw pennies in the trash than have them. They are literally THAT worthless. They take up far more space and weight than they offer in value. It seems like such a massive waste to continue using valuable metals to create something so worthless.

Honestly, I think quarters should be the only coin we have.

I blame it all on the "crypto market" which is full of non-technical people trying to get rich off things they don't understand. It creates an ecosystem of misinformation and poorly aligned incentives for actually determining which coins have the best tech. The other problem is that coins are tied to (non-democratic, oligarchical) development teams, so there is a lot of guesswork involved in what features will actually be added and which are lofty promises that can't/won't actually be executed.

I wish so many people weren't trying to make money off the technology now while it's obviously not mature enough to supplant actual currency or some other sector (like storage with Sia and Filecoin). It would also be nice if new features/improvements on a coin were implemented by creating a new blockchain rather than be asking the community to fork.
What's the name of the street between Pine and Union. Seems to be an important street. But no, Google would rather display the Chipotle rather than the street name.

Cash purchases in Canada are indeed rounded to the nearest nickel; it is not always up. Credit/debit purchases are still to the penny, as there is no reason for them not to be. All cash purchases average out to no change over time, and I don't know anybody who misses pennies. I wish they'd drop the nickel next.
You're going to have much better luck with an alpine-based docker image. Unfortunately non-musl based systems have a lot of issues with static compilation, so while this will work with hello world, if you try something more complicated you will likely get linker errors.

If there is a hierarchical structure to the brain wherein some highly influential neurons direct the rest of the brain toward the immoral behavior, you can at least assign the lions share to them.

It was my undertanding that the Bedouin wore full body clothes to SLOW evaporation. In the desert, your sweat evaporates to fast (because of the near 0 ambient humidity) not giving it enough time to pull heat out of your body. Thus, making you even hotter.

I've experienced this very thing riding a motorcycle through Arizona. Man, it takes some real willpower, but gearing up is what is required when the temps go over about 85F. Just don't stop!

Tip. On a motorcycle, wet your shirt. Zip up your coat. Unzip your wrist cuffs. This slows down the airflow giving time for the water to evaporate and cool you, while providing an intake and exhaust. You will be amazed at how well this works. You can actually regulate the temperature (air flow) by opening or closing the zipper by your neck.

This will not work in areas with high humidity like the deep south.

These might be times of abundance, but not societal abundance. Trump did not win speaking about there being societal abundance. It does not exist in the US, and certainly not in the third world. Just walk down to the Tenderloin in San Francisco or take an extended walk around Oakland, and you can see this for yourself.
The greatest thing about this comment (besides being a fact and a very valid point) is that it comes second after a bunch of apparent Americans fighting over why the penny can’t or shouldn’t be removed as though nobody knows what it would really be like.

We Americans are so stupid.
I hope someone notices this idea and implements this.

Having two virtual network interfaces, one for high-priority traffic that you want to mask, and one for low-priority traffic that only gets sent as masking data, might be a good way to keep it low in the layer stack.
Nothing. I just consider them as dangerous as Microsoft in the late 1990s.

I would never have considered doing anything with Microsoft in the late 1990s.

Likewise, I would never consider doing anything with google now.
"Making" and "creating" are pretty ambiguous here.

The mint literally creates physical money (coins). But in the end, the government actually does generate revenue, that gets calculated into a profit or loss for the country:

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/seigniorage.asp

$100 bills DO generate profit. Pennies generate a loss. If you look at all of the currency in aggregate, it generates positive revenue for the country.

They are almost in any Spanish house too, and I've sorely missed them everywhere. In Denmark, Sweden and the UK.

Rolling shutters are great against summer heat, but IMHO their biggest advantage is the ability to let you have a totally dark room for optimal sleep.

They are also really good at preventing thermal leaks during very cold weather, and provide extra protection against storms and hail. Lastly, really good shutters can be locked into window frames to keep thieves away.

I don't understand why they are not more popular. Coupled with mosquito nets, they are a really convenient and energy-efficient all-weather solution.
Yeah they are both victims. It's not a natural behavior of humans to act like this.

I think they wear it to protect their skin from the sun first and foremost, and the choice of fabric is then designed to alllow for good air circulation and evaporation. At least, that’s the point during the day, but it’s worth remembering that it can and does get damned cold at night, and the same garment works well then too. From a purely physical standpoint, If the sweat is evaporating from your skin, it is that action which moves heat, not the length of time the liquid stays on your skin. It’s a matter of the enthalpy of evaporation, so a high rate of evaporation can only be a good thing. A good light fabric to protect you from sunstroke and dust, breathable to allow for (ideally moderate) perspiration to evaporate rather than drench the fabric, and then the whole thing works to keep you warm at night. If you’re constantly on the move, it’s pretty efficient!
In terms of solving harassment issues, it wouldn't help. My address and new name will still pop up on the registry.

In terms of getting a job, yes, I could get a name change, but I feel like that would be unethical. If a company wouldn't want to hire me knowing my past, then hiding it from them so they would hire me seems really wrong.
Anti-depressants can let you feel normal for a while, it's a way to find your will again.

Best of luck to you.
There was clearly one murder victim involved in this story, and that's a far more significant crime than "trolling people" or "trolling trolls who troll people".

No. Ignoring the running around, we would only expect there to be one alive, if, about 30 years ago, there were about 4 billion 105 year olds on the planet.

http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/04/21/worlds-cente... claims there are about half a million centenarians now. At 50% mortality/year, half of them should be between 100 and 101 years old, but chances are it’s higher because the world’s population was growing fast a century ago.

That would give us one or two 118 to 119 year olds 18 years from now. I wouldn’t rule that out.
>Should he Okamoto have been more careful? That depends on whether you think criticism of an internet troll ever merits a death sentence.

This is a weird false dichotomy. Its possible to think someone should be more careful and still not think they deserve to die. If I saw someone texting while driving I'd tell them to be more careful but not think they deserved to die.

Honestly, I don't understand the way he explains things. The maths is difficult to follow, and it just never clicks for me. Maybe he's writing for someone with a physics background or something, but I feel stupid when I read bishop.

That isn't the point; he's talking about the psychological difference we ascribe to seeing gas pegged at $4.00 a gallon versus a mere $3.99, since the first digit is the most significant.

Tax is always going to be the same no matter which station in town you use, so it's not a useful metric for comparison shopping.

(And actually gas stations take it a step further. The $3.99 you see on the sign isn't the actual price, it's $3.99 + 99/100 cents. If you look closely, you'll sometimes see the extra fraction of a cent in superscript.)
This is true.

When your company name is so hated by the public that you have to re-brand your flagship product "Xfinity" to distance it from yourself, you know you're running a crappy company.
I would have thought it's intuitively obvious that there's "no fixed limit on human longevity", and it's therefore obvious that mortality "flattens out": how else could it avoid going over 100%? It presumably is possible to say something interesting and non-trivial about the shape of the curve but it seems to be beyond the mathematical competence of the people writing these journalistic reports to do so.

Looking at the Wikipedia list of longest-lived people (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_verified_oldest_pe...) I get the impression that the top two (Jeanne Calment and Sarah Knauss) don't fit, though I know that the case of Jeanne Calment is very well documented.

The killer turned himself in to police. You see this in old Yakuza movies, the perpetrator will stand and wait for police after the killing (for example, "Pale Flower").

Fair enough. But it doesn't follow that we should increase prices further by rounding up (as per the comment I responded to) because credit cards charge a fee.
It's actually Americans who raised price to serve Americans. In sane countries, the merchant fees are half of that.
I gave up on crystal and realized I should've started with rust in the first place.

Crystal wants very badly to displace ruby, in order to leverage the network of developers and generate more and more attention. It's a smart decision on their part.

As such, crystal doesn't seem to have munch interest in low-level nitty gritty. "we aren't trying to be C" is a common comment amongst contributors.

For game dev, (why I'm bothering with rust) it's too big a turn off to ignore.

For web dev, I suspect crystal will ultimately find some success. Lucky framework has some REALLY cool features that rails hackers are going to discover eventually.

Unless ruby 3 drops a type system bomb and finds a 10x perf speedup, the continuing progress crystal is making will consume the ruby ecosystem.

Congrats on another successful release! Still no exhausting matched, no parallelism, and the spectre of type system changes in the future still looms, but aside from those things, looking good!

And windows support. But I personally don't mind windows support being missing. Fuck 'em. Continuing to settle for windows with alternative implementations and things like Wine only gives windows more power as an antihero. Let them be forced to adopt a Linux kernel, no compromise.

Why would you need to see the name of the street? You're much more likely to pull open a map to go somewhere instead of learning about street names in your own neighborhood. If I want to see every street labeled I can just zoom in, but 99% of the time I just want to go somewhere.
I think he's talking about when you are in turn by turn directions you can get into a mode where there is no way to get out. You need to throw away the app to get out.
It actually looks like two simultaneous cuts in this instance.
>As a non-American, I find to hard to grasp how a country that places super high priority on access to choices and options can get stuck with just two major parties and just ONE ISP (in most places, that is).

Distance.

America has states and even counties larger than many countries. And even where there are lots of people, population density is typically less than most other nations.

Distance is a killer in last-mile applications like internet.

I think there’s a grave misunderstanding about the multi-universe interpretation. The scales at which the uncertainty principle come into play are vastly small. I think they’re small enough that they don’t summate to larger scale variances. The larger level probably asymptotes to the one reality.
Yes and no. No in the sense that you not the only one to see pennies as an extreme annoyance, they really are. But you are alone thinking the annoyance is easy to get rid of.

They are a very good reminder of the currency history/direction, and cheap if you think about the consequences of letting this go unchecked.
This number is prime.
In your mind what is the solution to the "Dice Room" paradox you describe in "PHYS771 Lecture 17: Fun With the Anthropic Principle" (https://www.scottaaronson.com/democritus/lec17.html)?

tl; dr:

1. ICE [Immigration Control] planned to raid Oakland for illegal immigrants.

2. Somehow, Oakland's mayor found out and warned the community (Oakland, SF, and California are very pro-immigrant). This obviously gave opportunity for some immigrants to elude the raid.

3. Feeling undermined, Jeff sessions claimed that "ICE failed to make 800 arrests" because of the mayor's statement.

4. James Schwab, who this article is about, identifies that as an outright lie, because "We ended up arresting 232, which is 16 percent higher than our highest estimates." Thus the 800 figure would be an outright fabrication. He was asked not to contradict this lie, and morally objected, resigned, and blew the moral whistle on the whole situation.

5. In the middle of the CBS interview, at his house, some very intimidating DHS officers came by, unannounced, who seemed to suggest that Schwab had leaked the information to Oakland's mayor (which he cooly dismisses is entirely false and spurious).

6. The officers appear retreat once they realize they are on camera.
Asking the important questions
A great deal of the strategy here is meant to be demoralizing you out of putting up any resistance. When you begin feeling that, it's a sign you've been insufficiently ruthless with your opponent. The biggest question in electoral politics right now, which the future of the country hinges on is whether exasperation and despair drive or depress turnout. If they depress turnout then the only way you'll know peace is if you figure out how to make those other guys stressed and exhausted to the breaking point instead of you.
I've joked to my pals that if the POTUS (a) eliminated the penny and (b) moved gov't to A-series(ISO 216) paper sizes (biz would then follow) at least then I could feel this presidency is a net (aggregate) neutral from a utility PoV.

A nickel is fine-grained enough for current goods pricing.

While we're at it, let's get rid of the dime, too. They are too small to fish for in pockets and purses. In fact, one famous US retailer has a policy of not stocking dimes in their cash room because the founder believed "dimes lose money."
Quartz is really owning this genre of badly misunderstanding what the mint does. The cost of manufacturing coins is an expense that has no bearing on the denominated value of the coin.
> This makes me sad. People working on open source projects get nothing. Sometimes they get some money. Sometimes they get some fame. People who don't build anything, but find a hole, they are heroes, they get prizes, they are worshiped.

I've been looking at open source communities especially in the Vulnerability research space it seems there's been a lot of favoritism towards attack oriented research from the community.
What other people subject themselves to is none of my business :)

And there is need for HTTP frameworks in Rust, for example embedded stuff often hosts HTTP servers. However, just like C we frameworks, it's my opinion they're not for the average use case.
This seems to be a controversial post (getting upvotes and downvotes). But for the downvoters, also consider that his decision to remain isolated is a current one, but not necessarily an indefinite one.

He may come down with any illness or condition that causes him to change his mind at any point, but no longer in a condition to do anything about it. There are certain conditions that modern civilization makes coping with considerably easier, and it’s plausible that he would chose that over his current surroundings, but no longer able to change his surroundings.

That’s the question that keeps coming to my mind.
