>... for thousands of years the Church said we should interpret it literally.

This is completely false.

Source is the Catechism of the Catholic Church:

http://www.vatican.va/archive/ccc_css/archive/catechism/p1s1...

In Sacred Scripture, God speaks to man in a human way. To interpret Scripture correctly, the reader must be attentive to what the human authors truly wanted to affirm, and to what God wanted to reveal to us by their words.

In order to discover the sacred authors' intention, the reader must take into account the conditions of their time and culture, the literary genres in use at that time, and the modes of feeling, speaking and narrating then current. "For the fact is that truth is differently presented and expressed in the various types of historical writing, in prophetical and poetical texts, and in other forms of literary expression."
hello?..... FBI?
You as the developer have access to and are aware of all possible display dimensions and aspect ratios. It's not that hard to prioritize the sizes you want to support and then work based off that. There are plenty of tools out there that let you simulate different screen sizes for testing too. I don't see this information providing any extra value.

But a client entering a couple extra zeroes is not a clean and obvious mistake. A person could reasonably bet either $5 or $500 for example.

On the other hand, offering something like a 1000x payout for an event that has a 50% chance of happening is a clear and obvious error.

If an error is egregious and obvious, it seems reasonable that a company (in this case FanDuel) not honor the deal.

Similarly, say a grocery store meant to have a "Buy 1 get 2 free" steak sale but accidentally keyed it in as a "Buy 1 get 200 free" sale. Nobody would expect the grocery store to actually give away 200 free steaks to every customer who bought a single steak.
It’s more sad and funny to outside observers, that’s all.

Also, their target audience is nominally married people. So either these people have a fetish for cheating (weird, but not my problem), or they already are in relationships of some sort of another. One would hope that a bit couldn’t teach them anything new at that point.
I definitely see where you're coming from, but on the other hand you could make the exact same arguments about cyclists. The rates vary a bit (anecdotally, scooter riders are way less likely to wear helmets but more likely to stop at stop signs). I think the booming population of scooters is just increasing the number of opportunities to see the problems that exist for modes of transportation that split the difference between pedestrians and cars.
Well, it didn't have anything to do with Bitcoin until some months ago. I just changed that because no one was using it anyway so it might as well serve as another Bitcoin experiment no one uses.

The example should work, however. Well, I guess your feedback was very useful. Thanks!

Society did no such thing; they weaseled their way into a legal grey zone and made themselves big before society had much say in it.
That's harder than it sounds and, anyway, they say they don't do that. It would be a pretty big deal if they were lying.
re "only to the universe as a whole"--

“The etymology of the word ‘universe’ can be traced back to the use of the Old French univers, in the twelfth century, which derives from the earlier Latin universum. This word is created from unus, meaning ‘one’, and ‘versus’, the past participle of the verb vertere, meaning ‘to turn, rotate, roll or change’. So we have a literal meaning of everything ‘turned into one’ or ‘rolled into one’.”
from John D. Barrow’s “The Book of Universes.”

Sounds like Bohm is taking the 'uni' in universe seriously, while the paper starts by assuming there is no fundamental unity in the universe.

These days sbrk is rarely used, in fact, on Apple systems I am under the impression that it is depracated (A quick search confirms this impression).

The correct approach is to use mmap with the MAP_ANON flag (Which interestingly isn't doesn't seem to be fully documented in the Linux documentation...)
Oh! I never knew that. But it seems obvious now that you point this out.
Sure, they design the road with a target (including non-speed-related requirements), then observe, then recommend a speed limit. If it's too fast, they can do things like narrow the lanes, etc, which will slow traffic down. Changing the signs does nothing, more or less, because only about 10% of drivers base their speed on the sign.

Portland is going through this right now. Dropped the speed limits on all the former 25 mph roads to 20 mph. The result is predictable. If the city wanted people to slow down on the small surface streets, they should make them narrow enough that it's somewhat challenging to fit two cars on side by side. Works every time, needs no more enforcement to make it work.

Seems reasonable to keep good faith customers happy while rejecting those who wanted to pile on.
The parent has the flaw that a lot of people do. They don’t seem to understand that not everyone is a mostly decent person and that there exist bad actors in any population. You can’t get away from this in any society, for example what percentage are psychopaths? That means if you create systems (like this) that eventually bad actors can exploit for themselves, they will, and they do. It’s not a conspiracy. It doesn’t happen right away. But slowly it’ll happen that the few percent can use these tools in ways to serve themselves over the interests of the wider population. (I don’t know why this is hard to comprehend, just look at the bad actors around you in your $dayjob.)

There is no consumer protection there. No method to deal with contracts that are already mistaken.

Moreover, the best way I can think of to deal with mistakes in a smart-contract is escrow in something like a 2 out of 3 multi-signature wallet. This essentially elevates the third-party handling escrow to an arbiter. It seems like the kind of thing we'd want to be run by actual courts. Yet, having smart-contracts with build in ability of courts to revert seems to defeat most of the purpose.
I think Apple has to consider separating Safari (and other bundled apps) from the iOS release so that users can update a quick fix through the App Store without waiting for a new iOS update.

There was a serious WebAssembly regression in iOS 11.2 that makes wasm effectively useless [1]. Devs had to disable wasm and wait for months until iOS 11.3 is released.

Apple never releases a iOS hot fix just for a single Safari bug. Then why Apple don't let users to update Safari separately?

I don't see any possible way for the fund to actually make use of the "value" here. It's just a pumped stock that's had trading halted 3 times in the past hour or so. They wouldn't be able to sell without crashing the price and I highly highly doubt price is going to remain so high over time.
Just to give a little (estimated) timeline:

* Currently our first release candidate is available via Github and Docker

* We are aiming to release a 2nd release candidate next week

* Sometime shortly after that (1-2 weeks) we'll go final 1.0.0

Rolex used to replace all worn parts in their movements as part of their servicing at no extra charge. Do they still do this? If so, then I would push off the service as long as possible. If you wear out a bunch of parts after 20 years they'll be replaced in a single service. I think the average service interval for them is 10 years (not that they recommend that but what people usually do) and the servicing is like $750 last I remember.
144Hz refresh is rapidly growing more and more common as displays become easier to drive. I'm sure the market penetration isn't as high as 4K screens, but I'm confident in it being the 2nd most popular refresh rate after 60Hz. I really refuse to work on 60Hz at this point. I notice significantly more eyestrain on lower refresh rate displays. Switching form a 144Hz display to a 60Hz feels noticeably worse.

Fun fact:

Ms Pac Man was made by hackers.

Here's the story:

Some twenty-something hackers at MIT had a decent little side business selling modified Missile Command boards. They wanted to make one for Pac Man. The hack was so good, the American distributor of Pac Man released the hacked version of Pac Man aka "Ms Pac Man."

The Japanese team, Namco, was working on their own Pac Man sequel, "Super Pac Man."

I found a new piece of evidence that it's a fixed gear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZhrqKrljig&t=265

The pedals continue to be pushed forward when the rear wheel is rotating freely. With a freewheel, this shouldn't happen (the pedals can drive the rear wheel when they're moving forward but not backward, while the wheel can drive the pedals backward but not forward).

But I'm still confused about the lack of visible pedal movement during the initial towing part of the record video. It seems like she was towed more than far enough that the pedals should have needed to move visibly with a fixed gear.

Anecdotally microbrewers seem to be doing fine. The city I moved from (pop. ~200,000) had ~10 microbrewers. The city I currently live in (few hundred thousand people as well) also has several.

If small companies can't compete it'll be because they can't deal with the regulation or the business gets commodified and they can't compete on price since they don't have economies of scale, but the later doesn't seem likely to me.
Second theory: Planes are late constantly and the airport/airlines don't want to keep reminding people how late the flight is; apart from the obvious intercom announcements, that is.

Vision Zero is about _designing_ roads to be safe for all users. It is not just about driving, nor is it just about speed limits. The "zero" part is the driving vision of the program, it is not a target.

Vision Zero Principles, as stated in the linked Wikipedia article:

Vision Zero is based on an underlying ethical principle that "it can never be ethically acceptable that people are killed or seriously injured when moving within the road transport system." As an ethics-based approach, Vision Zero functions to guide strategy selection and not to set particular goals or targets. In most road transport systems, road users bear complete responsibility for safety. Vision Zero changes this relationship by emphasizing that responsibility is shared by transportation system designers and road users.

I had no idea Ticketmaster had such a reputation for being consistently sleazy until I read all the comments here. They scammed me once and I thought it was an isolated screw up that they just didn't want to own up to.

One would think that review sites, etc. or the BBB might do something about companies like this, but even companies I always have good experiences with have some disgruntled former employees or customers trashing them online, and I've never known the BBB to do much. What's one to do? Are there sites for feedback on companies like this where it's not just paid shills and disgruntled people?
the goal for supporters of such approaches is not safety, but rather control. new things signal a changing of the guard (no matter how remote the possibility), and they oppose it by reflex. grousing about blocked sidewalks and people getting hit by scooters is largely the brain rationalizing the underlying instinct so as to provide ego coherence (i.e., "i am a good and safe person" rather than "i'm trying to preserve my status in the world").

many people want scooters (along with bikes and e-bikes). it fills an important missing middle between walking and driving. the better approach is to replace parking lanes on city roads with a grade-separated (from both regular roads and sidewalks) lane for these missing middle modes of transportation.

as for road safety, strict imposition of the kind of regulation noted in the article actually creates danger. the reason we have such powerful engines in our cars is to provide headroom to accelerate out of accidents (where braking out of them would be difficult or impossible).

i'd be all for much harder driving tests, where licensees show a mastery of control over the vehicle in difficult conditions, much like commercial pilots. i'd also support stricter enforcement of distracted driving laws (rather than speed enforcements). those would actually help reduce auto deaths.
People use “short” as a synonym for holding a put option all the time.

I convinced our IT department to add QGIS in the company’s Software center. Now everyone can install it without admin rights. It’s the best way to replace expensive proprietary software with great FOSS software.

QGIS is a really really good open source project. It’s the Firefox for GIS. It’s very approachable for a novice provided you can give them data sources to play with. For expert users, almost all fields can be data defined and almost everything can be scripted in Python.

I gave them 20 bucks a few years ago and I’m cited in the credits. They also thanked me personally.

If only I could convince my company to donate (hundreds of k€) to such projects (QGIS and PostGIS) instead of giving away money to Oracle Spatial, ArcGIS Entreprise and SAP HANA... which are not bad per se but not worth the price.
As you're concern to have your user data be on hand of third party, maybe it's better to do the analytics yourself.

Sometime like this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34031251/javascript-libr...
QGIS is excellent, but personally I stopped using it as much when R's spatial data pipeline got better (particularly since the excellent sf package came around). Now, granted I probably was never a power user of QGIS -- just making very simple choropleths and stuff -- but the R, code-driven approach is more to my liking and I've run into fewer rough edges than I did with QGIS. Still, really mad respect for the software, and so glad that undergrads are learning on open software instead of paying buckets of cash to ESRI.
