Hey maged, I'm a developer looking for freelance work incase you're searching for developers :)

I don't have any tips for you unfortunately.
I visited this bamboo factory and village. I forget exactly what chemicals they used. I think they said it was a 'bromine bath' - they have long troughs that they fill with bamboo, then pump full of warm liquid. They let them soak for an amount of hours, then wash off the solution. They said this process both hardens the material and makes it less vulnerable to pest damage. Bamboo requires different amounts of treatment for different uses (sounds like too long makes it brittle, but very hard).

Didn't see a spot of mold on the houses we toured - but I'm certainly curious about the longevity as well.

Another neat design trick: they would cut little square holes in posts about 3 feet off the ground, so they could pour the supporting footings through the hole so the cement actually extends a few feet up into the post.

Here's their website - if you're in Ubud, you should visit! Their ~1-2 hour walking tour was nice. Or, you can book ahead to stay in one of these houses. http://greenvillagebali.com/
Credit specialist
The cost of poor credit is massive. You will pay higher interest, require larger down payments, and ultimately life will cost you more than someone who has excellent credit. The game of credit scores never ends. You might have an 800 credit score one week and a 630 the next. That is why I keep my family credit specialist close. He deletes any form of negative items (eviction, medical bills, bankruptcy, student loans, judgments, etc.) on reports and replaces them with good tradelines (mortgage tradeline, revolving credit cards, installment tradeline, auto tradeline, etc.) that will help boost your score more effectively, efficiently and less costly. He adds or removes any info on credit profiles. He repairs credit in 7 business days and on the 8th day you can pull your report and confirm the good changes on your report. Contact him today and you will be glad you did. Here is his contact; REPAIRWIZARD4@GMAIL.COM, +1 520 441 6516.

If you are looking to maintain a secure device similar to stock Android without google services, a Pixel phone with verified boot using your own signing keys, latest AOSP, and up to date drivers/firmware is a far better option. I've been working on a project that automates the entire process in AWS and it supports all Pixel phones now: https://github.com/dan-v/rattlesnakeos-stack.
It's the 2011 model year. It's a real van, with 15 seats, so 11 MPG is pretty good.

The engine: 5.4 L (330 cu in) SOHC 2V V8

It looks like this:

Oh, also: I'm thankful I got a chance to buy a 15-passenger van before they were all legislated out of production. I'm thankful mine hasn't failed yet.
I love how “boring” this stack is; great job just shipping the damn thing!
I wanted to make a bamboo cabin or even house.. This could come at a better time.

I think it would be better to list the number of miles it

PVC actually does pretty well against mold growth. It's the organic materials that are usually the biggest problem. Metals, glass, and dense plastics are fairly mold resistant.
No offense taken. I'm in Western Washington state. The home I previously lived in had fine machine threads on the exterior faucet. I assume this was to prevent attachment of a hose without a vacuum breaker. Here's the item I had to purchase to attach a standard garden hose.

Now that I think about it though I believe you are correct about the diameter of the port being consistent. It is indoor plumbing valves that I've run into a variety of sizes of. 1/2" vs 3/8 compression.

The thing you have to know about Brazil is, it's perfectly okay not to like Brazil at all. I can't call a movie most people have never seen "overrated," but people can get really weird about Brazil...
A console is an interface intrinsically driven by text and data. So it's a shame to see yet another article where all code samples are, presumably, screenshots. Search engines can't index them, readers can't search through the page for them, and blind people can't access them with a screen reader.

Clean code is an ambiguous and subjective concept.

Assuming you’re referring to the practices taught in the book, I disagree that it always delivers a higher value than messy code.

I worked with a code base recently that on the surface checks all the boxes, but honestly, the code was way over engineered for the problem it actually solves. The team itself was great at writing clean code, but they over indexed on it to the extent that they were paralyzed and couldn’t actually get anything out the door. Honestly, they don’t know how to deliver.

I would prefer a team or even one decent engineer who knows how to make trade offs. Instead of only optimizing your logic, also invest time to figure out how you’re rue going to deliver. Make sure there’s instrumentation and metrics. Load test your system and understand your dependencies and their limits. Do they need to scale too? What hardware do you need? If your traffic calculations are off and you have problems, how quickly will you be able to get back into your SLA... speaking of, what is the SLA? Have you built your run books? If dependency A fails or if this part of your architecture fails, what happens? Did we failure test? How many calls will this system get per second? Will it be sustained or bursts?

Thinking of software only as a code style optimization problem doesn’t work, unless you’re in an organization where developers are explicitly code monkeys.
The first wave of the attack began dropping off letters.

I wouldn't call it an attack, but it seems more like some sort of autocompletion checking given how similar it is to the queries generated to Google if you use their search autocomplete feature --- one request for each character entered.

That said, Google's search quality has already taken a steep decline and I've been getting blocked very often for searching more obscure things now, so whatever "bot mitigations" they put in, I hope they don't make that even worse.
Why would someone buy from a Shopify store when they can get it on Amazon?
"making my web site less usable is the only way I can find to stop the Google from indexing infinite trees of it's own creation"

So apparently not.
Equally easy to find recent articles outlining Apple is getting billions from Google to have Google search by default in Safari. Doesn’t sound fitting commitment to privacy.

robots.txt can certainly keep google away from your search box, but it won't defend you against the lower-case probes, the extra letter probes, the delete-a-character probes, etc.
I suspect it's used ironically. "A capacitor, a very complex object coming from the Classic Electrodynamics Theory" would work similarly when preceding a description of two parallel metal plates.
> With proprietary software I have no idea what my device is doing. Maybe they're spying on me! Maybe they aren't! Who knows!

This is entirely untrue. You can sniff the outgoing connections to see what data is being sent. Here's instructions for how to do it on a Mac: https://medium.com/@jamesmarino/monitoring-ios-https-network...

On Windows, a similar thing can be achieved through Fiddler.
Man, I feel like half this post was my sysadmin playbook. I eventually got sick of explaining why it was such a pain in the ass to crack open vim and edit remote files, and why it was much easier to edit locally and scp back. I credit interactive fiction for the problem-solving skills, and gopher for the boost to memorization (gopher because if you wanted to find that primitive search engine 12 levels deep, you had to memorize lots of strings of numbers to navigate those mazes of menus. Not much different than how we use appliances these days, really, though it's hell to manage if you're stoned or not 100% on your game. :)
Ah, that's a good point.
This guy has had so many issues with various crawlers "attacking" his (boring!) sites, I'm starting to think he might just be a bit paranoid.

I've done lots of portscanning of the entire internet, this always generates vast amounts of abuse emails.
Many of these these emails are xenophobic rants from obviously distressed people staring at their access.logs, thinking they're being targeted by the Russian government or something.

I can't help but wonder if this might be a similar case.
I can easily see myself using this, going through twitter recently to prune and replace some of the accounts I follow.

One suggestion if I might? I noticed some of the imagery didn't seem to immediately 'grok' with their topics. For example "Sports" shows a photo of a bicycle propped against a wall in what looks like someone's flat, while "Arts" shows a photo of a basketball court, "Animation" showed a photography studio and the "Comedy" topic has a group shot of business suit types (albeit in a 'silly' pose).

It was a little odd, definitely nothing that breaks the platform but it may help 'discovery' to make images a bit less...ambiguous given the topic they're related to? I think sports and my mind goes to team sports and not necessarily riding a bike to work (the image looks like an average commuter bicycle versus a racing bike) so maybe that's on me to make the mental adjustment when assuming the connectedness of topics.

Otherwise, neat idea and service!
django is rank 253 on the fortunes benchmark (https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/), .net core is rank 6.

I feel .net core is productive to django, but I don't like using python so my opinion is bias.
Are you claiming that Google doesn't respect robots.txt? He can just disallow *.
The author is writing as if housing construction just happens irrespective of demand. People will build new housing if they are confident it will earn a profit. It stands to reason that if new construction is allowed, housing prices can't stay much higher then construction costs for long.
I visited this bamboo factory - they soak the bamboo in a chemical bath (bromine I think?) and wash it off to make the bamboo harder and less vulnerable to pests.

As such, the bamboo they are building with may have notably different mechanical properties than raw, dried bamboo.
WebMarkupMin doesn't support that?

As http://tech.trello.com/why-we-chose-kafka/ points out, Redis Streams would be another alternative. It seems still underdocumented though as it's a recent addition.

Since they are used incorrectly in a consistent way, I can again suspect it's done on purpose. Like the "Use the force, Harry" (e.g. https://me.me/i/use-the-force-harry-gandalf-8062768)
The message I got from the film is that when people give in to despair, they're prone to take actions that may have catastrophic consequences. The virologist has lost his faith (in whatever he may have had faith in) and has become a nihilist. nihilists are the most dangerous sorts of people, as they're likely to take any action at all, unconstrained by morality, ethics, or common sense.
The best Dune novel, IMO, is God Emperor of Dune. And it's completely unfilmable. The primary character is conspicuously nonhuman. Much of the exposition, as well as a number of important plot developments, are only delivered through his internal narrative. An attempted film adaptation would probably try to focus on one of the human secondary characters, and would, by so doing, completely miss the point of the book.
> They are more than happy to let some percentage of their properties remain empty rather than decreasing rental prices, because they can claim the lost rents -- at the prices they set -- as taxable deductions.

How is it that a tax deduction can offset the opportunity cost of leaving a property vacant?

Or does it only offset the cost of what the unit would actually rent for at rates that naturally clear the supply/demand curve?

Could a vacancy tax fix this?
I don’t see how the rise of digital media and independence somehow lead to disassembled communities.

A lot of people argue that the internet takes us away from human connection but I disagree. If anything it brings people closer by allowing individuals to join communities that they could never have assembled with their reach in the physical world.

Furthermore if an individual prefers to be on their device over talking to people near them, it’s probably because they wouldn’t talk to those people to begin with. Or that they feel so comfortable in the community they’ve already built that they don’t care to expand (a problem that exists with or without technology).
I wonder how many cars they’ll have on the road to start. It seems the technology is proven at this point, which is no small feat considering how far away all other competitors seem to be on that side, but now Fiat Chrysler has to pull its weight in producing cars quickly enough. Does anyone know how well the car manufacturing is streamlined currently? Can they support an expedited ramp up to the 60,000 cars Waymo has ordered from them in a timeline of ~1 year?

I think that answer will determine whether Waymo can leverage the 2-3 years of free reign it has to dominate the markets and create an impenetrable moat or if other self driving companies will ultimately manage to catch up in time.
I offer Tor's contrary opinion [1] about Jodorowsky's Dune adaptation.

Another comment in this thread is correct: he was not even closely faithful to the original Herbert story.

There are good reasons that no one wants to finance a project as big as Dune for someone as mainstream controversial/unstable as Jodorowsky. His nuttiness might play well to an art house crowd, but there is no way you would ever get your money back for a mainstream film done by him, and for the lavishness of his vision of Dune, the size of the bankroll requires a mainstream audience to pencil out the numbers.

In my linked article, there was a great comment about him: the dude rolled a natural 20 on charisma. But he's off the charts weird would be the kindest characterization. There are far more malign and dark claims made about him that you can search up on him on the Net, but none substantiated enough to land him behind bars to date. Though that one screen-capped tweet in the comments alone makes him pretty odious to my sensibilities. The descriptions of him sounds like a sociopath to me personally, but I don't know the guy so I can't tell what is really going on. Other than I wouldn't bank a wooden nickel on him.

Wonder why they picked 2030. I _might_ have read a 3-year forecast since they are sometimes correct. But any forecast involving social processes that is beyond 5 years is almost always wrong.
> kernel implementation is death for a protocol because it freezes its specification and behaviour in slow-to-update systems

Maybe that’s a matter of opinion, but I consider that to be a feature.

I want protocols to remain stable, and not be subject to whatever whims-of-the-month the fruity people at Google LLC comes up with.
Yeah. It needs a Jackson like person and the entire crew from LOTR to really pull off. People with the same depth of understanding of the books.

LOTR’s art director had done amazing works before those movies, and it was neat to see that transposed to the screen.

I bet the studios look at it and don’t want to touch it based on the past performance of the movie.
So this would continue for as long as CO2 levels stay high, possibly hundreds of years.

Assume 4-5 degree warming and then missing several years due to (wars or other catastrophes). How hard the sudden warming shock would be?

I think you're looking a bit further back than necessary. FiveThirtyEight oddly enough did a bit on ADHD pharmaceuticals here [1] that gives some numbers. So for instance just between 2008 and 2013 adult usage of ADHD medication doubled. It was currently at 2.8% and has undoubtedly continued to skyrocket since then. And that number is dwarfed by how quickly we're putting young children and especially boys on it. In 2013 we already had 9.8% of boys 12-18 years old on ADHD drugs - and those numbers again were, and presumably still are, rapidly increasing. And once again the numbers as recently as 1990 were very near 0.

At least from your post it seems to me like you're talking about something like the 50s. You need only go back a decade or two to see tremendous differences in rates of psychotropic prescription and usage. And the sheer numbers here mean that if these drugs are as having as large a positive effect as many users do believe them to be, then we should be able to see tremendous macro level positive indicators. But I'm not sure we really do. By contrast I could certainly point to sharp increases in a variety of physiological and psychological disorders which are considered side effects of these treatments.

I buy from shopify store when the seller has not listed that product on amazon. Otherwise, i always choose Amazon because using amazon i am able to dispute without chargebacks and trouble, when a seller sends me broken stuff.

Amazon handles returns free of cost where i live, so i don't need to courier return on my own.
It is going to be a difficult task. Developers won't bother to write or update their apps for a niche OS. But if it at least can run apps from F-droid (and has root access) then it is good enough for me. And if there were a replacement for apps depending on Google Services then it would be perfect.

Is it really necessary? It might work for a tablet but for example I cannot type anything on small on-screen keyboard. And I don't understand why do that if you have a laptop with a normal keyboard. So I think a document viewer would be more than enough.

And this is at the opposite end of the spectrum....

On one hand, you have computer science majors who know theory but can’t code their way out of a wet paper bag.

On the other hand, you have the computer science majors who can do leetCode in their sleep but don’t have the stamina to see a project to 100% completion and easily get distracted by the oooh shiny.

And let’s not forget the computer science majors who can code and know theory but don’t know anything about business or how to communicate and deal with large organizations.

Out of those three - I speak from experience in two. I always knew how to “program” as a professional developer. I was a hobbyist before going to college.
The imgur thing looks like Google was following links from another webpages. i.e. I submit a pic to fotoforensics, I post the link here (something like fotoforensics.com/analyze?url=imgur.com/blabla) and Google ended up crawling all those links in batches.

The fact that he says something like "a Google administrator tracked down a rogue employee and made him stop" makes it clear he's paranoid (or malicious).
