The ones I'm familiar with avoid Turing-completeness in order to ensure that all functions are total. In doing so, they remain quite expressive but not enough to write interpreters for themselves. So the usually straightforward strategy of embedding a language by writing an AST datatype and interpreter is unlikely to work in this space.

The article says they were in a blind shaft, which made the rescue more complicated. In the WTC bombing (http://www.interfire.org/res_file/pdf/Tr-076.pdf), there were also many people stuck in elevators in blind shafts, also complicating their rescue. Perhaps there should be a requirement to have an inspection access every other floor on blind shafts, to make rescue in these situations easier.

This is my opinion about IP: https://lustysociety.org/property.html#ip

You are right that I am against European intellectual property and intellectual property in general.

The industry should be open for or even leading modern lifestyle trends of rich modern free societies. In particular, I think these EU politics are insane and extremely costly and prohibitive and detrimental too a modern society:

- https://juliareda.eu/2018/11/eu-council-upload-filters/

Poverty is detrimental to everyone and everything except slave holders and wage slavery.

A rich neighbor is better than a poor neighbor.

Technology removes poverty.

EU manufacturing has been transferred to China because of competition by low wages. As China advances, the people in China will hopefully demand a better quality of life instead of engaging in competition by low wage and low quality of life.

I am European and I hope that Europe will benefit the world by proposing a good lifestyle for modern wealthy societies and related products. I doubt that IP and keeping the rest of the world poorer and less developed is economically and technically and morally the right approach.

I like this note: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdLRiaCjRkw&t=2015

Unlike most physical goods, information can benefit everyone at almost no additional cost.

The sooner China and any other country can advance science and world class technology, the better for everyone. Europe will then "steal" from them.

If Chinese companies can produce products like cars and solar panels that help to fight climate change and air pollution and destruction of the environment for fossil fuel then they deserve their profits even more while VW and BMW do not.
Hardware testing is much more than firmware checksum comparison. Once you have the blueprint, you can physically compare it against samples using various methods such as x-ray, acoustic and electric profiling to detect any differences. Furthermore, hardware is generally retained for a long time and can be checked with future anti-tampering technologies.

These measures does not offer perfect security. It simply makes the cost of hacking and chance of being caught very high, even for state actors. We could achieve fairly strong security at an affordable cost for most civilian uses. At least, tested Huawei hardware may be a good alternative to untested hardware from another vendor (which is probably manufactured in China too) at an inflated price.

Of course, if you are still concerned, why not take a course on microprocessor and build your own CPU? ;)
It's a shame this article doesn't lay out any plan for how to get from where the US is now to where the author would like it to be. You're not going to dig up the existing train stations, so how could the parking be converted to shops and housing? How can you persuade drivers and politicians to support whatever other steps are necessary? (eg. converting roads to railways)
They do try those things too. You under estimate how much experimentation goes on in Amazon.

I once knew Sharon Qi, she was a businesswoman who started Chinese edition of Forbes (all "foreign" media in China, are foreign in name only.)

The point she was making that Chinese state very much welcomes moves that amount to "giving your own child as a hostage" when it comes to big name foreign entrepreneurs having big stakes in highly regulated businesses that the state can "hold at gunpoint"

The very fact that Bloomberg group companies are still kicking in China, means that Michael Bloomberg is still playing ball with Beijing.

Of all the laws you had to pick the ones about child porn to make your point?

I think you'll have a better time making the argument by talking about how US-based social media sites treat female nipples as pornographic. That said, your argument breaks down because unlike e.g. cloud providers, social media sites generally have no incentive to have isolated regional data centers that would allow hosting content that would be illegal to host in the US (as the way I understand the laws, mere possession of child porn is already illegal even without intent to distribute).

There are good reasons for child porn to be illegal even without taking US laws into account (e.g. that it usually depicts child abuse, that it's by definition non-consensual and that it violates the victim's right to their own image and their right to privacy).

Arguments exist why certain things should or shouldn't be considered child porn (e.g. fictional drawings/renderings) or how those laws should be enforced. Also some jurisdictions may not have specific laws against child porn but consider it illegal because of other, more general laws (see above).

A quick google search[1] suggests that most of the countries that don't consider child porn illegal likely also consider many things legal others would rightfully (i.e. there's plenty of evidence to back this view up) consider child abuse (e.g. FGM, child marriage, child labor, etc). So even without US laws I bet most companies would prefer taking the ethical stance of not permitting every "legal activity" for users in those countries.

Thanks. I agree, there is some kind of vendetta. However, messing with Toronto's economy could have disastrous effects. I guess we'll see how it plays out. :)
> Facebook could end up paying dearly for mediocre employees to stay on (as its share price falls, it has to hand out more in stock-based compensation to keep people).

Does this passage make sense? With a high flying stock, Facebook would be paying more for mediocre employees while the rsu’s vest than if their stock is lower. If Facebook increases rsu’s to even out the employee’s comp, then the net cost to Facebook will be the same at the lower stock price.

Their only risk is if Facebook’s stock starts appreciating again and they are on the hook for more rsu’s at the higher price.

While what you say is true, the above method is the only method to archive arbitrary web pages. Yes it depends on user interactions to some extent, but it's possible to reasonably let a page load until fetches stop, and consider it rendered. Generally speaking, you can only archive some preset interactions with a modern web page. You can't hope to capture it all.

There are tools like WebRecorder[0] that do this to some extent by recording and replaying all requests. It's certainly a step in the right direction and demonstrates that the approach is viable. This was the only approach I tried that worked for archiving stuff like three.js demos. Worth mentioning there's also an Awesome list[1] that covers various web archival technologies.

What I use it for is:

* HSL - easy to change the hue of a color

* Lab - lets you compare colors

* Named color - lets you know the name of a color

I thought the format of the document looked familiar... and then saw "Microsoft Corporation". I've seen a lot of other documents from them with the same formatting, and it always feels a bit weird to me --- something looks a bit off about the (body) font.
> They're all markups, so they all require at least some mental rendering.

Unicode maintains the position that plain text is unsuitable for this sort of thing and markup languages are preferred. That's also why there are no "formatting" modifiers except in cases where the result actually has different semantics that are important to distinguish (cf. RTL and LTR override). Overall I'd say Unicode does a fairly good job keeping too weirdness out of the standard. Emoji are obviously a much-contended addition, albeit one that already had a history of existence and widespread use in plain-text. And while you find all symbols needed for math rendering in Unicode, some of the weirder ones sometimes came from older character encodings and their existence does not mean that full math markup should be part of Unicode.
Yes, business news is my favourite because to make money you have to be right about things. The guests on Bloomberg TV are just incredible compared to any other media sources, top financiers, economists and etc.. who are comfortable with math, science, history and economics.
I remember hearing of this before - I think it tells us a huge amount about how best to achieve our goals, or to coach others in that regard.

For example: ask a team to build a software project with excellent design and best practices and they may hit "analysis paralysis".

Ask them to build perhaps 5 distinct - but cheap and disposable - implementations and you might find they get a much better idea of how to do things "right" very quickly.

Where next? what if airlines taxis and hotels shared ratings, would the west be so different?
I hate Uber Airbnb pestering me for a rating every trip and the fact that I am rated as well. I don’t know or care what my rating is, but my wife does, she was upset recently by an Airbnb landlord in Belgrade, she gave us a bad rating because we had not deep cleaned the place?? The apartment was awful and we had to leave at 5.OO am and the lift didn’t work, last thing on my mind was hovering, no hotel would expect such, but maybe in the future only perfect behaviour will allow one to travel.
Well yes, but you have the option to keep the cash and not using the bank..

Cambria. Personally I don't like it much, although I don't hate it as much as Computer Modern or Times. The main reason here is most likely that Cambria is also Microsoft's primary math typeface and having the body text and math use the same typeface is IMHO preferable.

Constantia pairs fairly well with Cambria as well, though.
Germany and Norway already did this in October and earlier this month. Denmark announced the same yesterday.

Honestly it doesn't matter much if the US doesn't do the same.
Right now you need 4 SO-DIMMs: 32 GB each. you can get that already in Lenovo's P72. That is a 17" workstation laptop though, so it has more room available than others, but it's not totally crazy, especially if a vendor used a different format instead of bothering with DIMMs. I don't think Apple's gonna do that anytime soon though, it's too niche for what they do.
I think it does, because with many of these companies you're granted X shares vesting over 4 years and if the share price causes you to drop below your total "target comp" they issue you more shares to make up for it, so it's an additional grant out of FBs pocket.

I don't think logistics or even storage were ever a large percentage in cost / unit. The highest two is rent, staff in retail, and marketing.

Although the idea of Online Retailing were suppose to save on this, in reality it is merely moving the Rental cost to last mile delivery.... which is also expensive.

Wife has Scheuermann's and Levoscoliosis (spinal deformities) and spends a large (often majority) percentage of her time in agony. American doctors refuse to give her opioids because their idea of resolving the 'opioid crisis' is to not help anyone (because the DEA is up their asses for every script they write), and since most of them haven't heard of her issues, they shrug their shoulders and recommend physical therapy, for someone who can't get out of bed. Yes, her pain has driven us to the brink of divorce on a few occasions, but we are united in our revulsion at the American healthcare system and the politicians whose meddling has shaped it.

I truly envy everyone who gets help for their mysterious or chronic illness in the United States. We're leaving next year.
Google still makes most of its money from search based ads. That pesky part about making a living and so on.
Free market choices in this case have hidden costs. Huawei was selling hardware with user manuals from cisco because they were exact copies. When IP is stolen, countries lose incentive to invest in R&D. Note almost every major Bell-labs era research center has been shut down or dramatically weakend, the most recent being Dow/Dupont.
It's a network effect problem, not an app problem. There's no IP or secret sauce, it's just a user migration challenge. It's not easy but it can happen very quickly, it takes a few seconds to download a different app and get setup. There's no vendor lock in from whatsapp.
Why do people still live there (apart from those who cannot move)?
If it doesn't, it's possible, through voting, to change how that operates. There's absolutely nothing that can be done in the 'free market' which would have any impact on providers/insurance companies.
Well, nonpersonhood is nothing new to China. Tenth of millions of people in China can't even get an ID because they don't have birth certificates, and without that you can't legally have a bank account, have a phone number, receive education, receive medical care, travel, own property, have family or even immigrate away from China.

And the West has nevertheless kept quiet for long 28 years.

> Also I don’t really understand why they chose that kind of superconductor

The fact that it can be manufactured as a flexible cable is probably key there. You not only need superconducting materials, you need a coil of it.
I deliberately chose a law most people strongly agree with to make the 2nd half of my argument stronger - if you can't expect our companies to change their policies to be inclusive of things acceptable in other countries, you shouldn't expect companies from other countries to do the same in the other direction (eg. offering strong privacy, which is also illegal in many places).
That photo happened long ago. That's a key point here. Today things have changed.

Sure, even some slaves weren't offended at the time when slavery was acceptable. Today, this behaviour is considered harrasment.

Well, if they're not making enough profits off it (for Google scale), they could sell it off to some much smaller company. (They could avoid selling it to a rival of their size, like FB etc.). A much smaller company like that would hardly be likely to become a significant competitor to Google, except it they did many such acquisitions. Your point about manager not liking it is somewhat valid though, but even there, the manager who organized the sale could get the credit for bringing in some $Ms to the company :)

But as I said, just a crazy idea ...
No, not necessarily.

As pointed out in another comment : "Other infractions reportedly include smoking in non-smoking zones, buying too many video games and posting fake news online."
"Criminals or serious offenders" includes those whose crime was offending the government or other elites by merely saying something that they didn't like. Only a tiny subset of speech should be considered a crime, like yelling fire in a crowded theater.

Ghost villages of northern France
What is the metric for ranking? By my metric, DC doesn't really qualify as a city - it's a giant barely functional suburb. Most metro areas in the US would seem to be similar.

But my ranking is irrelevant really. Most silly rankings like this put chicago around #3 based on population/GDP/transport/etc.

For me - it's one of maybe 3-4 cities in the entire US where you can live comfortably without a car - meaning there is at least semi-competent public transportation at a "World City" level. LA, SF, and DC don't qualify at all by that metric so I'm not sure how useful it is :)

I guess in my minds eye I put the "top 3" cities in the US as NYC, LA, Chicago in that order - but it's also based on somewhat dated and historical information.
It is not that you are getting Rip-Off, There is at least $15 going into Retail Rental, Staff, Operation, All these cost are 10x higher in US than Vietnam.
So in summary, manufacturing is coming back but the jobs aren't?

This trend was entirely predictable. Cheap human labor becomes expensive and unreliable at scale so it's only a stopgap until automation becomes affordable enough. Cutting delivery times and transportation costs helps shift the balance. Scandals and improving quality of life (i.e. workers become more expensive as labor laws improve, production becoming more expensive as environmental laws improve) also helped.

It's the end goal for Uber, so why should labor-intensive factory jobs be any different? As soon as automation becomes more profitable than human labor the jobs will be gone.

Hey Asidiali

The landing page looks nice, but I would introduce more "Features" and explain better what problem your product solves.

Maybe introduce a "How it works" like the one you write here, with bullet points "1...,2...,3...". Also if you can get some testimonials, it usually increase the conversions.

Nice work!
