My rust belt city removed main street parking in favor of bike lanes to the same effect but they did it as business was picking back up post-recession. It really pissed people off because all the businesses that folded were the ones that weathered the recession. Our city is somewhat of a commerce destination for the surrounding towns. When they decided to go the bike friendly route all the commerce redistributed itself. The businesses off of main street benefited greatly. They did bring back the prior on-street parking on most of main commercial area of main street and several years later there's a lot less boarded up store fronts.

I think the lesson is that you can't just cave to the bike special interests group or the walk-ability lobby, you have to look at how the economics of your city work and make sure that any changes you make will not shoot it in the foot.

This statement from the article would have me very worried about surviving the next downturn if I were a Toronto business owner.

>Toronto reports business receipts are up along the corridor as well, albeit a tiny 0.3 percent. The rest of the city was up 3.8 percent over the same period.
Should note here that my benchmarks are comparing HyperMinHash to MinHash. I didn't directly compare to HyperLogLog in the paper, though there exist other papers (mostly in the CS theory literature) that do compare MinHash to HyperLogLog in various intersection regimes.
First of all the practical difference between believing in something and behaving as if one believes in that is often neglectable. Especially when either of both things can be said about the majority of a society.

Secondly, nobody is immoral, nobody is vengeful or senseless - but having said that - the enemies of the state of course do not deserve moral standards as they don't adhere by those standards themselves ... "just watch the news if you want to know how many children they killed with their latest terror attack!".

The truth is - everybody loves slaughter bots as long as the right people get slaughtered - and who is that? Well, for the majority it's those labelled bad in the information sources they consume ... and are Chinese news independent? No, they aren't.

The Americans and Israelis love their drones - which aren't philosophically different from slaughter bots - and as long as those remove terrorists or taliban nobody would question those.
I'd be interested in seeing a source for this too. I happen to have a lot of Indian friends, and I'm a big foodie, so we talk about food a lot. Ghee seems to be the main cooking fat that's used (or coconut oil in the south), although just like we in the West were told to switch away from butter "because health reasons", Indians are told ghee is bad. Rapeseed oil ("canola" for the merkin) seems to be the main one, and Mustard oil gets used quite often too.
To this day I get a kick out of the fact that the best Fallout game was made by Obsidian.

>I got a chromebook because I needed a device with a keyboard I could use from my couch/patio.

That's a laptop, right? Were you in search of a form factor other than laptop? What about the Chrome Book's form factor was more appealing to you than that of the "standard" laptop?

>Being able to have a Linux laptop that just works is really awesome.

What Linux distribution were you using that didn't work to your liking? What were the pitfalls and what did Chrome Book do different to mitigate the issues you were having with other versions of Linux?
But those issues are all totally orthogonal to my point.

You can argue that someone doesn't need something, that it's the wrong level of abstraction, or that it's not an appropriate interview question. I even agree to some degree. But that still doesn't make those "CS theory" subjects.
That's all well and good, but doesn't answer the question. Why would I use Chrome OS rather than another Linux distro for web development?

My Ubuntu instillation is also always updated and secure. Device drivers also just work. The android support sounds great for android development, not web development.
They don't have firearms. The loyalists and the government do. What do you expect the people to do? You can't revolt and take out the socialist tyrants if you don't have weapons.
I made a separate account for the Chromebook. I don't associate any personal info with this account. Of course, most people will reuse their existing accounts, but it's not strictly required to provide personal details in order to use a Chromebook.
In Europe, the Venezuelan crisis is largely ignored. Where I live (Spain), our current government is more or less on friendly terms with Maduro's government and there is little insensitive to do anything about it. The left-leaning media has, for the most part, ignored the topic (El Pais for one...), despite the increasing number of Venezuelan asylum-seekers arriving in Spain each year, and any meaningful efforts to boycott anything would need the media/government's support.
Would "anthropology for the purpose of strategy" be reasonable/fair?
Their rates are far lower than whole genome sequencing because it is a "Genotyping chip" or SNP Array.

They don't sequence your genome, they look for about 600,000 common SNPs.

If you do get your whole genome sequenced (as opposed to the outdated exome sequencing), you will get a lot of data but it will be difficult to utilize. 23andme has survey data + lots of customers, and can do this type of statistical genome-wide association studies (GWAS). With your whole genome, you will have much higher resolution data about yourself, but limited ability to leverage the additional data.
I don't mind my Chromebook, but I don't think I'll ever go back to Chrome OS.

I purchased my Chromebook Pixel (2015, codename Samus) with the same idea, and it was great for the first few months: I slowly started using Google products for everything, so my development work usually meant using the SSH extension[0] and connecting to a Google Cloud machine I rented. It appealed to my "digital nomad" tendencies, and really made me feel like I could work from anywhere.

Unfortunately, the "digital nomad" tendency is often expensive and unsustainable, and I found myself spending $50/mo for a VPS with sufficient resources and storage that I didn't even own. I was excited that Chrome OS and Android are open source, but when I looked into making changes I quickly realized that the core was open source while most of the actual applications were proprietary (from the clock to the calculator to the SMS app, everything).

I started down the road to Chrome OS because I thought it would be a liberating exercise in minimalism, but it turns out that I was overpaying to rent a server so that I could use an often-proprietary OS from a gigantic corporation funded by adtech. Bad.

It took some time, but I eventually figured out how to install another OS on my machine (Arch Linux) and I've seen a boost to both my productivity and my computer knowledge. A VPS is a great place to learn the basics of Linux, but I've learned a ton just managing my own device and understanding how all of the various pieces work together.

Plus, now I can run applications on my computer (!) without the requirement that they're Android apps (!!) or Chrome extensions (!!!). Sure, the UX isn't quite as polished as Chrome OS, but who cares?

Chrome OS aside, the Chromebook is fine. Sure, it was a massive pain in the ass to realize that Google doesn't run mainline Linux, so it took about a year or two to get Google's patches merged into mainline so I didn't have to use a fork[1], but for the most part the device itself is fine. I've had some weird impossible-to-debug issues (e.g. half of the screen going dim) and a handful of annoyances (e.g. you can never remove Google's "WARNING: THIS IS NOT CHROME OS" warning on boot), but I can live with them.

In the future I'll never buy another Chromebook, and I'll likely never buy another Google product, but at the time it was what I wanted and I learned a lot from my experience.

Good luck!

No, I believe the formula for multisets would be

M(x) = ∑n (A*(A+1)*(A+2)..(A+n-1))/n!

since there are (n+k+1)c(k+1) possible unordered n-tuples over a set with cardinality k.
Minor nit: celiac disease isn’t an allergy. It’s a very different underlying mechanism with very different effects.
> At the same time, Linux is a large, complex project with backward compatibility which does significantly less noodling around with the extant interface.

Take a look at the system call table:

#define __NR_oldstat 18
#define __NR_oldfstat 28
#define __NR_oldolduname 59
#define __NR_oldlstat 84
#define __NR_olduname 109
[...]
#define __NR_dup3 330
#define __NR_pipe2 331
#define __NR_preadv2 378
#define __NR_pwritev2 379

(And that's before the impending Y2038 changes to the API.)

The main difference is that, instead of defining a new symbol, a new system call number is defined. The effect is similar: a program using the new "stat" system call (106) won't work on an older kernel which doesn't have it, while on the opposite direction it still works (new kernels still understand the old system call).

One thing the kernel developers do nowadays to reduce the API churn is to add a flags argument to every new system call (for instance, the "dup3" above is the same as "dup2", but with a flags argument). Even then, if you try to use a flag which the current kernel doesn't know, it won't work (the kernel developers learned the hard way that you can't ignore unknown flags, since programs will pass them and then break on newer kernels).

And that's without considering the "escape hatches" of ioctl() and fcntl(), or the virtual filesystems like /proc and /sys, which are also part of the Linux kernel API. So yes, the Linux kernel does see regular interface changes.
Then start new cities in open areas and create incentives (just in the beginning) for business to move jobs there. There's so much open space surrounding the bay area. In the east bay, From our clogged 6 lane highways, i can see nothing but green and yellow for miles as far as the eye can see.

> What I really hate about this is how once great nations like Great Britain

What? We threw all that away 100 years ago. We've been selling all of Grandma's silverware for the past century to keep the lights on.

To reach back into history and make things relative to Great Britain's former power is disingenuous. Britain as well as the rest of Europe decided to spend almost all of its "advantage" on killing each other. It got what it deserved.

The process of stripping the country further back and selling the silverware kicked in harder around the Thatcher era (1980's).
Lets not forget that earlier kicks which include the second world war, the US suddenly removing Lend-Lease because the British people voted in a socialist government and the Winter of Discontent.

If you chart the history its not surprising. What's surprising is that people are still in a suspended state of disbelief about Britain's place in the world... including its own citizens (a la Brexit).
Hope you don't take this the wrong way but... but you don't _have_ to sell handmade soap, or eat cookies or whatever. It's your choice to do it.
Will it happen to Chromium OS for normal laptops too?
As a heavy Linux desktop user this looks quite interesting.
I know the manifesto, I am among original ones proposing it.

And for things that might happen in future, I would leave them for future. Building hw takes time and proper dedication - all what I am saying is to be realistic towards current situation. The blocks are no commodities but some essential parts in today's use of smartphones. And no, things don't move that fast that you will just replace it.

If done right, things could finally go into right direction or at least have some new light on it.
I've considered doing this in the past. You need more than a modest budget to maintain such a system, especially if you plan to sell service (and, inherently, support). It seems like it would be a full time job.

In addition, you still rely on those monopolies to provide you with the utility: https://startyourownisp.com/posts/fiber-provider/

I live in Seattle where the homelessness problem is particularly acute and I completely agree with you.

Our philosophical and moral systems aren't well-equipped to handle drug addiction where a substance changes a person's brain in a way that undermines their autonomy.

The line between "harm-reduction" and "enabling" is blurry, as is the line between "personal freedom" and a person's obligation to their community.

I don't think there are simple solutions to this problem. Unfortunately, complex solutions are hard to sell and this is a problem that needs wide buy-in from many people to make progress.

I think the relevant pressures are the vapor pressure of liquid water, the atmospheric pressure, and the partial pressure of gaseous H2O at the gas-liquid interface.

If you can blow dry air over its surface, you can evaporate liquid water (or sublimate water ice) even when the relative humidity is 100%.

You can think of air as a gaseous solution, and its water vapor content like table salt in aqueous solution. Temperature affects the solubility, and if the solution is saturated, no more can dissolve. You can still dissolve salt crystals sitting in a saturated cold saltwater solution by squirting warm freshwater onto the bottom of the container. If that then mixes with the rest of the solution, and everything cools down again, that dissolved salt can then precipitate out somewhere else (like rain), or form a suspension of tiny crystals (like fog or clouds).

The solubility of H2O vapor in atmospheric gas increases with temperature. But you can also do something with a gaseous solvent that you can't easily do with a liquid solvent, which is to change the pressure. Higher pressure lowers the solubility of water in air, but to a far lesser extent than a decrease in temperature. Even though the vapor pressure is dependent only on temperature, evaporation occurs whenever the vapor pressure exceeds the partial pressure of H2O at the interface. Increasing the overall air pressure also increases the partial pressure of H2O vapor by a proportional amount, so inhibits further evaporation. But water vapor is also less dense than N2, O2, and most other atmospheric gases, so the means of measuring pressures gets complicated.

When you involve wind, and stratified airflows, it gets even more complicated. The air blowing across water or water ice could have been previously warmed by the ground just enough to evaporate more water, then get pushed higher by an angled snowbank into colder, saturated air, and it will then dump the excess water as small ice crystals. A solid block of ice can then become "rotten" as a snowdrift forms downwind of it. The overall average temperature may say that ice should stay frozen, but the wind can still carry a tiny bit of water vapor at a time, thanks to local fluctuations, and with enough volume of air to move it, that ice will drift.
The "surface" in "attack surface" implies reachability.

Your argument doesn't make any sense, how would "the exploit" make an unreachable vulnerability reachable without being able to execute the vulnerable code in the first place?

Please don't say "using a different vulnerability that allows us to execute arbitrary code".
Had this same experience with an Xbox One someone gifted me. Immediately soured me on it but I stuck with it. However I also don't use it all that frequently so every time I powered it up to watch a Blu-ray or play a game I had to do a 10-30 minute download and update. After a few times of that I just never turned it on again. Now I'll never use it again because the day I do will be a day of downloading and updating. Screw that.

I know you can set it to a mode where it can stay minimally powered on and update itself, but I use it so infrequently why would I waste all that power?

You shouldn't. It's in Google's best interest to get people to use their products. It's in your best interest to avoid Google whenever you can.

It's my own opinion. I mean, isn't it obvious?

In what circumstances, where you actually don't know something, would you plead the Fifth? Would you do that, just as a matter of principle, just because they're asking for something that they have no right to ask? That seems like asking for trouble.

I do understand the intent of the Fifth Amendment. To protect defendants from incriminating themselves. And, I believe, to forestall the use of torture.

But now, regarding passwords and access credentials, the Fifth is becoming unworkable. I mean, that Philly ex-cop is still in jail for contempt. And perhaps he actually has forgotten the password to his Apple storage device.

I have friends in Tokyo renting 1 bedrooms in the city center for $500 ~ $900 month.

Those buildings were not built as affordable housing. They became affordable housing when other developers built newer, nicer buildings somewhere else in Tokyo. Older buildings had to lower prices to keep tenants coming.

Unless there is a literally infinite supply of rich people, I don’t see how increasing supply cannot create more affordable housing.

Likewise, land values are so high because the completion over developable land is so fierce. As with buildings, increasing the supply of developable land will also lower prices.
In Crystal City, news of Amazon’s arrival inspires yearnings for a facelift
From my estimation, they are going to kill King Street, it feels deserted and the bars and restaurants are very quiet during weeknight evenings. These changes were made 24 hours a day, not just during rush hour. It makes driving complicated and has caused much more congestion on the connecting streets so I would like to know the impact on other transit routes that cross King Street.

The article mentioned restaurant sales are up 0.3% vs 3.8% in the rest of the city, but didn't mention that employers were hit with a 22% increase in minimum wage this year ($11.40/hr to $14) and this should be reflected by higher prices to recover these costs.

There is no reason for this to cause businesses to go under, but commercial leases are long term and difficult to exit so the real impact won't be obvious for years if this does cause them to shut down or relocate.

I've got a cheap (now $149) Samsung Chromebook 3 that I use daily for its long battery life and matte display (seriously, laptop makers! do more matte displays!)

My stable channel just got Crostini support, but I found that it takes up 25% of my storage space and it's been flaky to install. Instead, I use Termux.

I still have to visit my Mac/Linux boxen often for graphics editing, a proper editor/IDE like Atom, and certain other apps like pandoc. But as a daily browser and command-line runner, it's great. (Okay, some web sites are still really slow due to the underpowered CPU on this cheap model.)

Yes, institutionalization has many problems too, which is one of the things that led to a dramatic increase in homeless populations in the US[1] when many asylums were closed. But throwing mentally ill or addicted people on the street isn't a solution either. There needs to be some more complex system that avoids the ills of both of those.
