[emotion](https://github.com/emotion-js/emotion) is the main lib doing it now -- it's pretty popular among the React crowd, and sits at 5k stars right now. It's a nice, gradual transition, since it mostly follows scss-like syntax, and the docs all use tagged templates. e.g. `const className = css\`p { font-size: 16px; }\`;`, but `const className = css({ p: { fontSize: '16px' } });` works fine too.

What's cool is you can use the same obj conventions for the CSS as a React component's `style` prop, or a regular Node's style. e.g. if I have `const headerColor = { color: '#ff0000', backgroundColor: '#00ff00' };`, I can say `<div style={headerColor}>`, or `Object.assign(document.querySelector('p').style, headerColor)` too.

Yeah - the hybrid cloud and on-premises build agents is actually one of my favorite features. The open source project that I help maintain (libgit2) uses VSTS's hosted Linux, Windows and macOS build agents, but add support for some other platforms (like ARM) with on-premises build agents.

Fair enough, loose terminology. Trump does have support over here, that's a fact, but bear in mind those quarters tend to be the nationalist end of the spectrum. Where in their priority list do Britain First people put Trump or the US? Not in first place, that's for sure. They're no happier with steel tariffs, cosying up to Putin, etc than anyone else. The best they can say is that he doesn't really mean it. But he's doing it, so that argument is really wearing pretty thin.

> Yeah, private tutoring is the best. The custom, just-in-time curriculum that a tutor can prepare is the most efficient way to learn.

I really disagree with your choice of words here, specifically, “just-in-time”. This makes it seem like the tutor is teaching things to the student right before they need it for an exam, which is an unfortunate effect I’ve seen happen because in the long run it doesn’t really teach anything. But where a private tutor really does excel is having a better understanding of how to tailor the curriculum to the student (this includes both simplifying or making it more challenging, depending on the student and the topic).
OK, cute, but why? Who is the target here? Distraction to content ratio seems pretty high.
I never liked the formulation that utopia is not worth it because people lack the creativity to imagine what could be done for fun in it. It's like we've never tried but hey here's an explanation as to why you shouldn't want it! It should really not be a surprise that imagination is lacking here because for a lot of people, happiness is just defined as having things other people don't have, because that's simply how we came out to be wired and because we continue to live in a world that follows those principles.

Until those principles have been modified, you have no idea what a utopia is and would look like. This has never, ever, been the case, not in any society you can think of. You might think you live in some super nice societies but you have never escaped those principles.

Utopia isn't about making people not have toothaches or whatever anymore. That's not the point. Utopia is about letting people live in a manner that they would want, not in the manner, currently, prescribed by the law of the powerful and the powerless.

But if you really think that if suddenly your problems being solved, you'd find nothing to do, you are not thinking hard enough, and you are already too wrapped up in the thinking of having things other people don't have. It's a mindset problem of people born into a world working on that principle and it's a hard one to rewrite.

To protect the safety of your workers, you do not want someone who is high/impaired operating machinery...

Drug tests can't tell if you are currently intoxicated. It's not like a breathalyzer. I doubt they would make a rule that says you can't have a drink after work.
I’m not an art history major, but why does a work of art require a backstory? Or a meta-story? Why is a screensaver not “real” art? It seems so limiting. That’s a beautiful painting and the painter is very talented, but there is no existential dread evident in the brush strokes, no social commentary on the intersection between class warfare and feminism, so it’s not “real art”. Who makes these rules?

It’s like when you hear a young pianist play Liszt perfectly or a Rachmaninov piece better than Rachmaninov did, and the critics say, “Well there was no emotion there, no struggle—she has a long way to go.” Bullshit! It was great! Why can’t art just be appreciated itself, without all this “story” baggage?

If we take each of those issues:

Ignorance - developed countries have never sent so many people to university.

War - Is less common in recent history and the wars we do get involved have fewer casualties. I know people will raise Iraq but you only need to go back as far as Vietnam to find a conflict that was an order of magnitude worse.

Poverty - Absolute poverty is very low in the developed world and decreasing elsewhere.

Dirt - Soap is cheap.

Disease - Smallpox, Malaria, Measles, Rubella, Syphilis, Rabies are all eradicated or falling heavily. Cancer is only so common because we live so long.

Frustration - Liberal values have given freedom to a lot of people that had been oppressed.

Hunger - Food has never been so cheap.

Fear - I live in the UK, there is nowhere in my country that I feel is out of bounds for me.

Overwork - Jonathan Sachs has a really good presentation on this, our hours have been falling for decades. Also technology has freed us from much backbreaking work.

Seems like a total dick move to launch anyway and hope that approval is obtained later. What was the plan if approval was not obtained after launch - did they have the facilities to bring down the satellites?

This story reads like Silicon Valley hubris - break rules anyway because we know better. Why even have the FCC when random startups can create their own rules?
Good point. It was an incorrect and lazy use of the word simile. It was an offhand remark that I thought felt right. I do stand by the use of 'hyperbole' though...

> "operations and development teams working together using high quality software tools to define, automate and distribute configuration and management information, integrating QA, release management and security"

This description has enough wiggle room that you could sail an aircraft carrier through it. I don't think there can be a short term to describe all that and stay meaningful; the term "devops" itself has always been quite fuzzy, and every person you'd ask would explain it differently.
> As much as the Common Core standards are criticized here in California, I have to say that the emphasis on the "why" behind every operation is really fantastic.

The one reason why I dislike Common Core is that this kind of explanation get quickly become tedious if you already understand what’s going on and it’s “obvious” to you. And many teachers seem to like to use this section as an excuse to waste their students’ time at home by forcing to write much more than they really need to.

I'm normally not a BSD user. I'm more familiar with "screen" than "tmux". To me, a "terminal multiplexer" is a physical piece of hardware. It has numerous slow serial lines to which one may attach terminals, modems, or consoles. It time-multiplexes them to/from a single high-speed link, typically by interleaving the streams of data bit by bit.

I don't see tmux being available as a library that I could link into my emulator. If it can be a library, then yes my emulator could implement the tmux protocol. This turns out to be almost exactly what I was proposing, with the terminal state implemented by a library within the emulator. I'd just be missing the user-friendly aspect of automatically popping up the terminal windows when my emulator starts, but perhaps that could be arranged by having the emulator start xterm running tmux.

This is comparable to using vnc protocol for VGA. I have this implemented, but nobody likes to use it. Everybody prefers the built-in video window to show the guest's VGA.

If you meant to not link in the tmux code though, that won't work.

Instead of insisting that there is a terminal emulator issue on the client side, I insist that there not be a distinct client. The code that tracks terminal state (cursor position, current character attributes, etc.) pretty much needs to live in the emulator. That is the only reasonable way to ensure that the state can be saved and restored by the emulator. Actually displaying this state could be done by connecting a client (annoying) or just by popping up a window.

Another nice thing about having the terminal windows built into the emulator is that they all go away when the emulator does, even if that is a crash.

If you need to buy ITAR controlled items it doesn't really matter where you're incorporated, Cayman Islands, Isle of Man, Cyprus, whatever. With a supply of ITAR controlled satellite tech cut off you're unable to manufacture. There are purely european based ways of manufacturing satellite stuff but with everything ITAR-related taken off the table, the market choice of components/subassembles is drastically reduced.

I still fear the Silicon Valley ethos of "move fast and break things" is infecting areas where this is outright dangerous: healthcare, self-driving cars, satellite launches.

It's one thing if your social networking app goes down for a bit or someone's favorite feature is broken, it's quite another to do something that can have severe negative consequences (in this case, for humanity at large) if something goes wrong.
The reason quoted by the article for FCC dismissal was that they are too small to be tracked, and thus avoided. Is this a legitimate concern? Even with a thousand up there, is there real concern for collisions with the amount of space involved?

I know the "technically correct" answer must be yes, as there's some increase in chance, but what realistically is that chance?
> So incorporate outside America and focus on the trying to monetize your services abroad.

Still, as evidenced by the statement of the supporters who put these on the Indian rocket, there are still many cross-nation gentlemen agreements about satellite placement. This should be viewed as a good thing (even though many nation states themselves can usurp the rules they set for their private sectors), but one assumes a more formal body will have to be introduced as the satellite count triples soon.

> This type of mesh network wouldn’t really be useful in America anyway.

Disagree unless I misunderstand the purpose of Swarm's tech specifically. But in general, satellite provided internet is currently the only high speed option for a significant rural population, many of which are paying over urban rates for much less. Or even as IoT sensors, again, rural settings benefit, something the US has a lot of. Where it that type of mesh would be less useful is in places with better terrestrial coverage. Also wise to approach the profitable markets first.

- They're looking to sell out to a bigger actor, -and then my data will be abused

With an open source self hosted solution I can be somewhat safe.

With a paid product there is a bigger chance they will be smart enough not to to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs by selling out their paying customers.

Just like the Air Force has to now consider whether it can work with Musk; Tesla as a company that is owned by others than Musk also needs insurability; It's likely that Musk didn't set or invent this policy but Tesla's insurers (for workplace safety and maybe even product) require drug testing.

Many do not. There is a theory of something called the Power Process, which states that for people to be happy, they need goals which require effort, and need to achieve at least some of those goals. The lack of meaningful goals which require effort in the first world may be responsible for much of the depression, suicide, and other issues that plague us today.

I advertised for a travel site in the travel reddits. I never got a single ad approved "out the door" - only after I opened a ticket and asked why they were not approved did someone actually respond and approve it. The denial was within a few minutes of submission and the approval only after I opened a ticket in which case the response was "We're sorry, we've approved the ads" - but no one ever answered the question of editorial review.

It may appear "emotionally driven" because my experience with reddit ads has been terrible. I struggled through it, i followed the example ads, i created very topical ads and when i finally got all approved and done, they just didn't perform well either. I talked with peers in the industry and they all avoid reddit ads for the most part because of similar experiences. I haven't spent any money with ya'll since that bad taste experience.

for me, it would just be easier to site target reddit through google and do adwords for desktop/web traffic.

The editorial review literally feels like some redditor judging your ad on personal opinion vs an editorial review for passing some kind of targetable creative process. That's a terrible way to treat paying customers and i don't that experience on any other market i advertise on.
