The people running couchsurfing killed it themselves by changing from a non-profit to a VC funded for-profit business after accepting huge amounts of volunteer effort.

But yeah, they aren't really the same thing. There is some overlap since it could be difficult to cover every day that you wanted to visit (and there isn't always enough hostel beds available, which are closer to the same idea), but for anyone who really preferred AirBnB it was better for everyone that they not be on couchsurfing.

This has been a problem since humanity moved beyond living in extended family villages. It's the problem of civilization. It's not what you know, it's who you know. Knowing people who have power makes you more powerful. Power, because it depends on popularity, tends to be distributed according to a power law (funny coincidence, that).
> If the agent is known to be an agent, Congress can quickly impeach him.

Of course, for members of his party concerned about the danger such public knowledge would do to their own personal political position and their party, the incentive if they know he is a foreign agent is to actively blur and distract from the issue to prevent the public from getting a clear understanding.

EDIT: This might result, say, in the bizarre spectacle of Congress members and of that party continuously attacking the credibility of individuals and institutions which have traditionally favored (or who are members of) that party simply because they are faithfully pursuing (or insufficiently sabotaging) an investigation of the operation in which the President is involved.
But it did need to be demonstrated. "That could never happen here, not in our country" needed to be refuted.
Top comment - I’ve been drinking bourbon for years but don’t know much about it, I just try to get a bottle of something I haven’t tried before whenever I run out. Of those six you categorized, I’ve only tried Four Roses and Makers, and I do prefer the Four Roses but didn’t know why - now I will be sure to try Old-Granddad and Very Old Barton to see if your categorization holds!

Also I could google it but it’s more fun to discuss - what is a bonded expression, and why do you consider a non-bonded expression of something available bonded to be better than a non-bonded expression of something that isn’t available bonded?
The best place for learning React is from official documentation. Also there are courses related strictly to React development (For example: https://egghead.io/courses/the-beginner-s-guide-to-react). I think it's a good place to start.

For learning JavaScript I recommend the book series You Don't Know JS (https://github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS).

Scala's mistake is ostensibly that it is an academic language trying to pitch itself as a language for building business applications.

Egison appears to be a self-consciously academic language, which strikes me as a perfectly legitimate.

In particular, the goal seems to be to provide a more intuitive way of writing algorithms using extensible pattern matching. Now, I have worked on commercial software that has highly algorithmic parts (graph traversals, etc.) written in Erlang (a language that supports a powerful, but not extensible, form of pattern matching). I found the pattern matching facilities to be quite helpful in producing readable, concise, correct code.

The use case is narrow, but strikes me as real nonetheless.

I still firmly hold that VR will become mainstream and mundane once someone can create seamless virtual offices, so you can get the verisimilitude of interacting with your coworkers face to face both in meetings and down digital hallways, while living anywhere in the whole dang world.
It helps if you remember that $primes is a list of primes, and <...> is pattern-matching.

So what it does is matching of such elements (named p) that the next element (see cons) equals p+2, which would be a twin prime, since p is a prime. Then it generates an element consisting of a pair [p, p+2]. The pattern apparently matches such a list comprised of elements (see <join ... >) that are [p, p+2] (the inner <cons ...>).

You definitely remember that Lisp lists are singly-linked lists, and (cons head tail) prepends a new head element to the list tail. This is why it is matched, pertty similarly to how it's done in Haskell.

You want him to spend some of his time maintaining a block list of his professional volunteers that sometimes have bad ideas?

How long do you stay on the list? And doesn't this assume that every idea that person has is bad? What happens when some good ideas are caught in the net? (And what happens when someone goes off and grabs help to implement the bad idea, because you weren't there anymore to tell them again not to do it that way? Or worse, what if they come around to your point of view, but can no longer reach you?)

Wouldn't it be better to just say no, emphatically, and in a way that is clearly and unambiguously no? (I don't think it absolutely has to be a personal attack, but at least it's not passive-aggressively putting your ideas into a blackhole echo chamber...)

The zoning laws are not there because people need to be forced into detached single family homes. On the contrary, I think you would be hard pressed to find many families with 2+ children who don't want to live in detached single family homes.

Zoning laws exist because people don't just live in houses, they also live in neighborhoods. And when they buy into a neighborhood, they want the neighborhood to generally maintain it's character (since that's part of what attracted them to the neighborhood in the first place). In fact, neighborhood character is so valuable to many people that they will opt into restrictions (CC&Rs) above and beyond what is required by law in order to achieve an even more uniform character in their neighborhood.

I tend to have a more libertarian bent, personally, when it comes to people building what they want on their land, but zoning laws are not about oppression of private property owners. You see them as a bug, but many people see them as a feature.

That could be part of it. If you are convinced by the Picketty idea where the rich have captured a greater part of the economy and rig the game in their favor (I am personally convinced by this) then you can see why things don't seem to be getting better for most Americans. But why do those same American's not focus their rage against the 1%? I think racism plays a role. And certainly, some members of the 1% stoke these flames.
I could fill a blog post about it but in my current project we're using TLA+ for two things:

1. Helping us design features whose requirements are vague. The more hand-waving required to explain a particular feature the more likely we are to use TLA+ to model our assumptions and verify our understanding. This has led us to ask some interesting questions of our design team to help us build a better feature.

2. Requirements that are really hard that we need to ensure are implemented correctly. We use TLA+ to ensure the properties and invariants are correct with respect to the requirements and validate our model. This is really helpful in the case of concurrency and consistency. For our application we're using event-sourced data and it's imperative that our event store is consistent in the face of concurrent writers, can be replayed in a deterministic and consistent order, and that our assumptions will hold between versions of the events.

Not OP but we have similar tastes (I’ve had the Lagavulin 16, the Bunnahahain 12 and 18, Talisker Storm, McAllan 12 and 15 - no Balvenie I can recall though).

For under $45, see if you can find Talisker Storm (my shop has it on sale around $32 quite often). The Laphroaig 10 can be had under $40 if you look around. Feels like an oddball but Johnny Walker Green Label would be a good one to try - I believe Talisker is a primary component - it is blended, however it is a blend of all single malts. I’ve had it for $33ish, on sale, should be able to find it under $40 if you keep an eye out.

Too many factors go into determining what fatigues a person emotionally, and the response in the event of emotional fatigue is just as unpredictable for every person.

Even non-conformists conform. It's just a blind spot because you don't know how to actually see that you are continuously behaving in a particular way, that rigorously adheres to some behavior that has yet to be described or defined. I can be a non-conformist by always doing the opposite of what everyone I observe does. I'm still conforming to a pattern, that's capable of being studied, followed, predicted, and eventually, that pattern will have to change too, to remain true to some spirit of non-conformity, if that's my highest value.

Thankfully it's not. But authority, conformity, group think, individuality. There's more than one way to see it. Psychology is a sloppy science because people can always change these things. Just have to analyze it enough, detect the pattern of being detected, and override it.

People being able to be individuals without an all seeing eye of meticulous study is important to me. That can be mentally fatiguing for plenty of people. I don't know if it matters how important their belief in the study is, if the means contradicts the intention. Life is ridiculous.

I would use this if it didn't depend on OS-specific features. Squashfs is not portable to Windows, unless you extract it to disk.

I actually prefer the jar/Tomcat model, where the read-only image gets distributed to servers, and when you run the app the image gets unpacked to disk as needed. You could also write I/O wrappers that would obviate the need to extract them to disk, and you could even make compression optional to reduce performance hits.

It seems like all you really need is a virtual filesystem implemented as a userspace i/o wrapper. Basically FUSE but only for the one app. There's no need for the FUSE kernel shim because only the application is writing to its own virtual filesystem. So this would work on any operating system that supported applications that can overload system calls.

For example, I would start with this project http://avf.sourceforge.net/ and modify it to run apps bundled with itself. With FUSE installed, other apps could interact with its virtual filesystem, but without FUSE, it could still access its own virtual filesystem in an archive. I would then extend it by shimming in a copy-on-write filesystem to stack modifications in a secondary archive.

The existing expectation of privacy assumes the capabilities of regular human beings. Humans cannot reasonably observe thousands of different locations simultaneously, 24/7, and remember of millions of faces. Machines can.

An analogous example: There's no speed limit for walking/running because human beings cannot run fast enough for it to be a problem, but we had to come up with speed limits for cars because they could do much more damage due to how fast they could go.
It corresponds, but its interesting to note how they portray rather opposite judgmental tones on the people in question -- TFA betrays the now-popoular left-leaning view of "seeking comfort in irrational things", a.k.a conservatism as a pathology of stupid people. It's not respectful and it's not a good way to really gain an understanding of people; simply writing them off as incapable out-group members.

On the other hand, the motherjones paragraph quoted by parent portrays the people in question as basically being forced to pit their desire to help people against their desire to see proportional rewards for proportional work, the classic "personal responsibility mantra" (ignoring of course the situations those 'line-cutters' were in before they got helped. Two different kinds of "fairness" being pitted against one-another).

The jump that TFA makes between "America has a lot of poverty" and "Therefore, that's the only reason people could choose Trump (a.k.a nazi germany)" doesn't really make any sense. The author just says "people sought comfort in myths". That's pretty weak.

Not really sure what the point of this article was, was it group signaling? Was it trying to convince people of something? Does the author care to hear from people who don't view conservatism as a pathology?

I don't think poor whites think purely with their wallet in Homo-Economicus terms. I think they just have a different set of values, one of which might be worded as "getting what you deserve/earn", which ironically, the author does touch on, but he writes this as a broad-swaths American thing:
"You see, in America, poverty was seen — and still is — as a kind of just dessert. A form of deserved punishment, for being lazy, for being foolish, for being slow. For being, above all, weak — because only the strong should survive."
He writes it as if brutal social-darwinists designed our economy, but really I think it's less malevolent than that. Self-reliance is a strong tenet of american culture, but it has some predictable outcomes when pushed as the solution to everything.

Yesterday I was listening to a radio interview of the author of a recently published book on the 1903 Russian pogrom, "Pogrom: Kishinev and the Tilt of History".

(Interview: https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101866202/pogrom-revisits-inf...)

The author kept making the point that even though the 1903 pogrom was very well documented contemporaneously such that there really are no unresolved questions among historians about the facts of the events, both the victims and perpetrators (and their descendants) clung to erroneous mythologies, more so than other pogroms that were less well documented.

The author kept making the point that facts are complex and messy, whereas myths provide a simple, consistent narrative. The internal consistency of mythology can actually make them seem more true and even more factual. Bolster that basic quality with some convenient ties to the historical record, against the backdrop of the seeming inconsistency of reality (mixed motives, people contradicting themselves, and even sheer randomness) the truth is often much more difficult to believe. Certainly truth rarely offers answers as satisfying as myth.
Personally I find that I do best if I work from home some percentage of time, and work from the office for the remainder. That way I can get my face to face stuff done, and my concentration-based work done.

You are getting a lot of far too convoluted answers. The simple one is the Ardbeg Corryvreckan. It checks the value box easily - at nigh-60% alcohol, you can practically make two bottles of booze out of it by adding water. Taste and smell? On consumption, it removes your ability to taste and smell anything else making it incomparable and thus, the best whisky by default. Free bonus - The Corryvreckan sounds a character from a bad TV adaptation of a bad Neil Gaiman novel.

Also it will get you way drunk.

The architecture is in general 'fine'. But communication paths of subsystems is probably the easiest part of the problem. And in general, re-organizing the architecture of a system is usually possible - if and only if - the underlying data model is sane.

The more important questions are;

- What is the convention for addressing assets and entities? Is it consistent and useful for informing both security or data routing?

- What is the security policy for any specific entity in your system? How can it be modified? How long does it take to propagate that change? How centralized is the authentication?

- How can information created from failed events be properly garbage collected?

- How can you independently audit consistency between all independent subsystems?

- If a piece of "data" is found, how complex is it to find the origin of this data?

- What is the policy/system for enforcing subsystems have a very narrow capability to mutate information?

If you get these questions answered correctly (amongst others not on the tip of my tongue), you can grow your architecture from a monolith to anything you want.
