Sorry, I took your sarcasm to imply that linux desktop keybindings were inconsistent. If that's not what you mean (I mean, reading it again, I'm really pretty sure that's what you meant), then I apologize.
This is one of the things that gets missed when people talk about Amazon and fakes. It's not just about the cost of keeping nonfunctional fakes out of the product stream, it's about the higher costs of legitimate products.

Obviously, the USB drive stuffed in an SSD case is a fake. But that's not the only kind of fake going - printing "Seagate" on off-brand disks happens too, probably with much higher frequency. And cracking down on that would not just be harder, it would be a way bigger threat to Amazon's margins.

Hopefully the PillPack supply chain stays separate or separately monitored, but this wouldn't surprise me either - most cheap online pharmacies are selling real medicine at lower margins, possibly with worse quality control.
I mean you are right that in absence of a judicial system and the monopoly on violence exercised by nation states and supranational treaties, a conflict such as this could have been violent.

Yes because while Etsy stock dropped by 60% to less than $10 it has recovered back 42 dollars about 3 years later.

In and of themselves, no. However, I think an argument could be made for the visual suppression of posts, which occurs after too many downvotes have been given, being a form of soft censorship. The information is still broadcast but it's made impossible to read unless I copy/paste it or tilt my screen to an extreme angle.

At the bottom? Fear of the other; in the United States, fear of the other rooted particularly in racism. Because it's not "nationalism" here--a disease by itself, but a controllable one. It's white supremacism, given nicer clothes by calling it "white nationalism" for some godforsaken reason, peddled by leaders who want the bottom to vote their way. It's not like it's news. Lee Atwater pegged this whole disgraceful thing decades ago. To legitimize and get boots on the ground for economically regressive policies, the right wing of the United States leveraged this racially-motivated insecurity; now the racist tiger has eaten them and they are so very surprised that the racist tiger was racist all along.

At the top? They're the ones doing the peddling. Some is surely true-believer racism. Some is also surely cynicism--because the bottom will eat it up and there's your leash to drag them where you want. It isn't exactly complex.

(And, no, Obama and Clinton are not "ultra right" from a European perspective; that's the sort of mendacious both-sidesing I expect out of actually far right speakers, though. Obama and Clinton would be generically center- to center-right politicians on a Europe-calibrated axis. The modern Republican Party is more like Ukip.)

Ethics aside, Duplex was built to overcome one key constraint: Restaurants are technology laggards.

Yes, booking a reservation with few taps IS easier/more accurate, etc, but that requires restaurants to pay/integrate with those systems.

With Duplex, you can schedule a reservation at ~100% of restaurants, right now, for free.

> Generally the idea of privilege is dealing with something you didn't work for.

I'd rather depend on the dictionary definition which is more subtle and less judgmental, but I'm aware that it's become a rather loaded term recently. (A special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group.)

> Is a kid who studies and gets all A's in class privileged with getting the reward for all A's?

Overwhelmingly the answer is yes. Children who come from a privileged background tend to make better grades as a rule, and the privilege continues from there. There is no need to get defensive about it or guilt-ridden, either, if you're one of the people in that position. (what, I'm supposed to perform badly so others can catch up?) It is just useful to recognize what is happening.

If nothing else this kind of awareness prevents people from having to ask questions like "Do I just live in that much of a bubble?" Well, yes.

> Earning a scholarship anyone can earn? Not privilege.

It wouldn't be a scholarship if anyone could earn it. No organization that awards scholarships awards them to all applicants performing above a certain objective threshold, as far as I know. It's a contest with winners, and the winners enjoy a certain privilege. There's nothing inherently wrong with that.

(although it might be a big-picture problem if there aren't enough scholarships to go around, if increased credentialism requires too many people to win that particular lottery, etc. etc.)
> But when you keep pushing JavaScript technology into stuff... you end up with multiple almost 300 MB apps to share some images and text

I would be hesitant to solely Javascript for the bloat of Instagram, and related apps. On phones, typically the WebView is used - not like using Electron where chromium + v8 is packaged with each application. A Cordova application can easily be in the single-digit MB range.

Facebook is a native app - and is 300MB+ in size. A breakdown is available here:

https://blog.timac.org/2017/0410-analysis-of-the-facebook-ap...

Mostly it comes down to the fact that app size is not a prioritization.
Best way to represent nil, in my opinion ;)

How the Startup Mentality Failed Kids in San Francisco
I don't know about the differences between Berlin and the US beyond cursory knowledge.

But from having bought a place in a high demand area recently, the thing is always "who are you competing with". When the average person with 2 kids and a dog are looking at the same houses in the same places as the other family with 2 kids and a dog, there will be differences, but overall it won't be too bad. The problem start when that family wants the exact same house/condo/whatever as the 2 highly paid software engineer with no kids.

Then you're screwed: you're competing on a different level. And there's starting to be a lot of people with high dual income and no kid. The US is generally a nation of divide between the haves and the have nots, but the cultural divide is making things waaaaay worse.

They have lots of different businesses and associated supply chains, they're not going to have random 3rd parties selling prescriptions on Amazon like they do for many verticals.

There would be no reason to integrate prescriptions in with their warehouses, so I don't think one is going to change the other.
The data backs you up on that, with Democrats ranking empathy much higher when making arguments.

That fact almost proves the point OP was making though, when your argument is emotion based offense at hostile views comes naturally.
This isn't opinion, it's provable fact. Twitter and Facebook were on a tear last year, actively shutting down the accounts of conservative pundits, under the guise of rules violations, while turning a blind eye to the same actions from pundits and personalities on the left.
It’s social media if nothing else.

I remember all the way back to when Merck spun out Merck Medco, which Express Scripts acquired (by that time, renamed Medco Health Solutions) to become the largest. Amazon is a guppy in an ocean with this acquisition. And yet Bezos owns WaPo, which is the basis for my statement.
Apple needs to focus on Qualcomm, and that is why it is time to end the case with Samsung once and for all.

The cumulative loss to CVS's and Walgreens's market caps has been about $12b. If Amazon had wanted to, they likely could have made more from the destruction of value to those companies than they paid to buy PillPack.

I wonder what other industries out there can be arbitraged like this. I bet Amazon could shave well over $10b of market cap off of BKNG if they made the right strategic investment.

There is one from Hillary's campaign showed as a picture in the article.
It has multiple roots, thanks mainly to the Normans. It also has a habit of plundering vocabulary from other languages, to the point where a single thesaurus entry might list synonyms with etymological origins from a dozen different languages. It can also smash affixes from disparate languages together without shame, particularly prevalent as mixes of Greek and Latin.

There is a decent chance that an English speaker with a broad vocabulary would be able to recognize individual words in any foreign language that can be expressed with the ASCII character set.

Well, there isn't such thing as 100B in cryptocurrency, so definitely not in crypto. (It would be very hard/impossible to acquire that amount right now).

This brings us to an interesting thought. Cryptocurrency transaction values have been steady growing, starting from pizzas to alpaca socks and now it's even possible to settle multi million dollar transactions. In the the future we'll probably see larger, billion dollar plus aquisitions settled in cryptocurrency, why not? For that to happen though, their marketcaps will need to rise significantly from what they are now, at least to multi trillion dollar levels.
> I've had the "pleasure" of working with other large projects built on flask and ever time it gets to a certain size I wonder why we didn't just use Django.

Actually, I've had the exact opposite experience. I like using Django for small and mid-sized projects, because with Flask I have to spend time adding all these extra libraries for universally required functionality on a quick app whereas, with Django it's plug and go.

However, the larger the project gets, the more I like Flask since I have near total control and understanding of the app. There's no digging into Django internals to make some obscure customization.

Then again, it's been several years since I last used Django, so it may have changed for the better here.

Sure but this is more akin to being a proscriptive grammarian rather than a descriptive one. Of course we could go old school and try to freeze language in time to be “proper”. This is taking a prescriptive approach to an extreme, in a sense.

It's funny how it's automatically about me when I was making a general statement :). Of course you feel self-righteous and above the fray, but really, you are human like the rest of us.

Most people are unable to decouple their sense of self-worth from the public perception of themselves. It takes a great deal of introspection and self-discipline to detach in the manner described, and even then, it stings at first before the brain kicks in to post-hoc rationalize the response. It's how human beings are wired and a few years of deep thought are not going to change millenia of evolutionary responses.
A simple Google search on Redlining (https://www.google.com/search?q=new+york+times+redlining) will reveal how current housing laws and massive wealth transfer that interest mortgage deduction is from less fortunate to the wealthy. There is a near unanimity among economists that housing subsidies are a bad policy and exacerbate rent seeking behavior. If not racist, those policies are downright classist (the line can be very blurry), designed to keep a small minority of homeowners (akin to landed gentry) in power.

mIRC offers a fairly good UX compared to all those.

If you're setting it up in a corporate environment, just change the ini files so it autoconnects to your server. It'll pop up a list of channels they can join. The server can SAJoin them to particular channels on connection too. The UI is very clean and lightweight: a channel scrolls messages and they appear, there's an input bar at the bottom, and there's a list of users on the side. It's written in MFC and Win32 APIs, so it's blazingly fast compared to most applications, and you can find a version that will run on every computer made in the past 25 years.

The united states military used mIRC extensively for battle field coordination. I think it's up to the task of handling bob from accounting.
As a conservative: What causes it is that you basically have to retreat completely from society to avoid seeing opposing views.

I'd have to avoid all the late night shows, most newspapers and TV news stations, and most social media. It doesn't take long to get inoculated. As a left-leaning person, it's much easier to see almost exclusively your own ideas being reinforced.

> There seems to be an idea that the things that offend them are, like, “naturally” abhorrent, so it’s not offense so much as, like... digust in satanic things, virtue in “common sense”, etc. There’s a whole language to talk about things that carefully avoids the concept of “being offended”.

I'm sure that's a debate to be had--but to apply most applicably to this discussion, I mean "sufficiently offended to leave a website, stop watching a video, block something, report something, or otherwise feel like you've had a negative experience." The kind of things social media algorithms will pick up on.
Mason – Front-end-as-a-service
The answer will depend upon how broadly you define "speculative execution".

If you define it broadly as any form of computation before you know for sure you will need to perform the computation, then items such as Tomasulo’s algorithm from January 1967 can be seen as a form of speculative execution (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomasulo_algorithm). It was implimented in the IBM 360/91 mainframe.

If instead you define "speculative execution" as needing some form of branch prediction and execution of a predicted branch path then the Wikipedia article on branch prediction (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_predictor) cites a publication by Yeh & Patt (item 14 in the citations list) dated from 1991. There are likely earlier pubs, but that one provides a 27 year old age for the technique. The reason that this places a age on the technique is that the moment you begin 'predicting' a branch and executing instructions down the 'predicted' path before you know for sure the branch outcome, you are "speculatively executing" instructions (executing them before you know for sure you do in fact need to execute them).

PillPack is basically a supply chain company - it's not an easy field to get into. I don't know if "who can ship these" is a big hurdle, though. Possibly a bigger issue is "doctors and patients are used to calling prescriptions in to pharmacies".

But the main issue with drug delivery is the need for reliability; you can't have somebody's heart medication ship out late or get lost in transit, basically ever. And if you change offerings or go out of stock on specific products (which most retailers do often), you'll quickly be seen as an unreliable way to get any kind of regular medication.

Plus, you can't let any fakes or low-quality products into your supply chain - so sourcing new suppliers is hard, but running out of suppliers for any single product is a crisis.

So being an online seller for use-as-needed prescription meds might be easy, but the bulk of the money is in people taking drugs daily, and that stuff is damned hard to offer.
Everyone applies "selective empathy". People on the left in the US care very little about employees of coal miners, oil companies, etc because of larger environmental concerns.

In every case, there is some "more important cause" that someone prioritizes that makes it look like they don't have empathy.
I think you're misreading the statement - he's implying that what they actually already do is in compliance.

I mean.. that's an anecdote which could have a myriad of technical explanations. I wouldn't immediately jump to the assumption that facebook is blocking select users from sharing links from a respected newspaper because they don't like the content of the article for some reason (why would they even block this article in specific?)

* washingtonpost is behind a GDPR paywall (for me at least), it took a few attempts even for the link preview to load when I tried posting that

* 99.9999% uptime of web APIs is not 100%, fb servers really could have been having trouble reaching washingtonpost

* I was able to share that post fine (once the link preview finally loaded properly), so WFM..?

These arguments treat putting a roof over your head as optional. It isn't. You will either spend a variable amount of money on rent that you cannot recover, or a fixed amount on a home purchase that you can recover.

People haven't run the numbers of a lifetime of renting. You will more than pay for a home outright...you will simply have nothing to show for it other than shelter.

On a five year horizon, it is a questionable if you should buy or rent. After that, there is basically no rationale for renting. There is also no rationale for renting past age forty-five. If you are in this situation, move immediately to a place you can afford to buy.

In the US, it is assumed that retirees live off their home equity. Your 401k will probably be spent within five years. Without home equity, people are going to be in big trouble.

And to preclude a popular counterpoint: you are paying for maintenance and property taxes implicitly in your rent.
