If you took the summer off, would you possibly work on a creative project with your son? It can be so nice to share something you love with someone you love, and motivating too.
Yes.

In 2008 and 2011 there was shortage (weather issues) and price spikes. Farmers around the world -- from Ukraine to Brazil to the US -- made a huge amount of money and invested in technology (new farm equipment, better seeds, etc).

In the meantime the weather globally has been perfect. Beyond specific local situations worldwide it has been perfect and the technology has only added to production.

There will be a problem in the future but the reason American farm bankruptcies are high is that the prices are beyond low and the production levels are lagged (they're based on past conditions and take time to correct). Currently it's beyond bad for large scale producers.

This is an actual issue. In the future the failure of producers now will lead to shortage ... and so begins a new cycle.
I don’t know, worst case scenario you learn a ton and...go get another job? Life is short and time is valuable. There is a very real cost to not putting your 100% into something.
HOA's and HOA bylaws are normally mandated and created by the bank doing the construction loan. They do this to protect the value of the property while they hold interest in the remaining lots. The mortgage industry also loves this since in the end they may be stuck with a property if there is a default.
Thanks for the comment! Good point. Next version, I'm aiming to achieve the true definition of steganography like you describe.

Have any suggestions on what to call it, in this early version?
On the contrary; given education's effect on fertility, you'd want to offer scholarships to those with the lowest "genetic iq."
Fabi had no real chances for counterplay any time soon. This is why playing on for at least 5 more moves would have been advantageous. Virtually guaranteed fabi would accept a draw even if Carlsen makes no headway given Fabi having burned a few more minutes on the clock.

Yep, I got this and I love it. Alternating one week on, one week off at about half my previous salary. I just released version 0.1 of a passion project, and now I think I'll take a break to practice bass guitar and play video games.

It does sting a little bit to be saving so much less for retirement. On the other hand I wouldn't mind working part-time forever. I just hope age discrimination in tech isn't as widespread as some people say...
If your drug test can't tell the difference between cotton candy and meth why is it still being used?

Nice projects. I remember "Websites in 2018" showing up on here not too long ago.

I just came back from a two week "stay-cation", and I found something similar. Sure, for the first couple days I wasting as much time as I possibly could - happily so - and then I started knocking out all the major house projects I had pending (insulating the crawlspace, fixing annoyances, etc).

Around the two-week mark, my mind was swirling with ideas that I've been wanting to implement in my free time. And then it was time to fire up my email and slack and get ready to get back to work. It works out well for me And my clients as I'm refreshed, excited to get to work, and my house is warmer, but I would have loved to dedicate that energy to something of my own for at least some stretch of time.

Two weeks wasn't enough. It was an excellent start and I highly recommend two consecutive weeks of non-travel time off. But it's not enough.
Why would you require this? Concepts can either be a part meaningfully differentiated from the whole (neocortex, hypothalamus -> the whole brain) or an aggregate that while reducible to more basic parts is meaningfully differentiated from other similarly reduced aggregates (neocortex vs. hypothalamus). What seems to define the demand for the "real" or "irreducible" is wanting the nature of reality to in some sense "do" this differentiation "for us".

And yes I would say that "qualia" insists on dualism.
Just to clarify, if you read below, you'll find that vCPUs on the A1 instances are each physical ARM cores.
"Besides its economic threat, the advance of AI seems to pose a cultural threat: if physical systems can do what we do without thought to give meaning to their achievements, the conscious human mind will be displaced from its unique role in the universe as a creative, responsible, rational agent."

That's a bit of an aggrandizing characterization for the gang of monkeys that climbed down the trees a couple of ice ages ago, that almost nuked itself over a disagreement on the best way of distributing bananas, roughly speaking.

"We are agents in the world, whose decisions, choices, actions are made meaningful by the content of the belief/desire pairings that bring them about. But what if the theory of mind that underwrites our distinctiveness is build on sand, is just another useful illusion foisted upon us by the Darwinian processes that got us here? Then it will turn out that neuroscience is a far greater threat to human distinctiveness than AI will ever be."

Oh my, a threat to our distinctiveness! Next thing those scientists will tell us that the earth is not the center of the universe, that the stars in the sky aren't fixed and that indeed Santa Claus himself is not a real person running a sweatshop at the north pole.
Honestly this seems closest to the truth. His attitude and body language at the press conference communicated utter boredom for the whole proceedings.

Let's leave the topic of Google issue.

Did you see my 2nd sentence which implied I was lying? Which almost means making a baseless claim?

You assumed that I assume he was lying only because he didn't cite source. That assumption is not correct.

Now I can tell you that I originally had 3rd sentence:
the 2nd sentence is a lie. I do have solid evidence that he was lying (unintentionally I believe) but it's too difficult to present the evidence.
Finding Love in China’s Marriage Markets
The US government? I find it hard to believe they would intervene with china unless they plan on using it as leverage in order to gain economic standing. However, seeing as google is already censoring content via prioritizing search results with favored websites before relevant websites and since the government is always happy to find new outlets to get personal information from its own and foreign citizens. I don't see this as being stoppable unless you make your own company and start competing with Google.
I don't really think China is luring too many U.S. scientists... Most of the scientists I know pretty much ignore research out of China, because a large portion of it is just not replicable (and / or lies).
Yes, yes, yes, god, yes, I am from about the same demographic, and I have also internalized the message about plain and simple equality and celebrating individual merit. I am in a perpetual sense of bewilderment caused by the change in the message.
What to expect from a no-deal Brexit
Google has evolved; whether it's for the better is open to debate. But we agree that it was never reality even if it used to be the same for everyone.

One difference between Google and an old-fashioned library: however arbitrary the collection was, you'd always find the canon, the best selected by the people who could reasonably be expected to know the best. Today, especially on YouTube, there is no canon, no conception of best at all. It's just whatever Google selects according to the signals it deems likely to keep you watching.

Sure. And many people new to skiing expect something like gussets to keep the snow out of their underwear when they fall. Issue is whether skiing is about clothing or moving over the landscape. Some focus on your clothes is appropriate, and more in certain circumstances. Rust, which I see you are a proselytizer for (I was at Mozilla during Rust's ramp-up, FWIW), is a tool for writing code that is closely integrated with the operating system. In that context, a type-centric mindset is necessary and valuable. If you are writing code in other contexts: exploratory data analysis, a simple Android app, and on and on, then types are there, but programming is not type management

Except the American economy is far from being in decline. Healthcare costs may be up, but outcomes are far better than they had been historically. Housing costs are up, but the size of an American home is 3x larger per person than it was a 60 years ago during what people refer to the peak of American success. The third and only other real big thing whose cost has risen faster than wages is education, where it's the only clear thing whose marginal utility has not really gone up over time in the way other industries have.

The problem with much of these things is that we're on a hedonic treadmill that we refuse to get off, even as further expansion of consumerism is destroying our planet. The big problem we have is policy that has promoted a society of which economic growth and even wage gains fails to provide a meaningful improvement in peoples lives.

Policy reforms could allow for the majority of people to live in cities in relatively new buildings serviced by public transit all at a lower cost than what we have now given our current system of inflated land values and high automotive transportation costs (i.e. cost of new construction is still relatively affordable when compared to the cost of land and public transit is far cheaper to build and service than automotive infrastructure). Reforms around healthcare that currently restrict the availability of doctors and enable overcharging of medical components would go a long way as well, and lastly, reducing the overhead around university administration while restricting lending would go a long way.

tl;dr: We aren't in decline, we just need reforms around housing, healthcare and education as their costs make poor economic sense and are only high due to protectionism and loose lending/insurance laws.
"or have more growth potential"

Right, but this is different from having higher expected value, or higher likely-case value. Most people don't value compensation offers based on 'growth potential' (aka 'best case').

(I'm assuming you mean growth in the sense of 'growth in value of equity', based on your reply to another commenter)
Yes, and that's part of the beauty of git, everyone can go fork it and create their own version of a data store.

In the case of something like a cryptocurrency, letting everyone create their own version of a ledger and get to decide which one is "correct", would be a complete and total failure of the system.

In my opinion, that should be part of what differentiates a merkle tree based VCS from a blockchain. The point of a blockchain is a singular, decentralized, "immutable" data store. Unlike git, version control is not what everything revolves around, version control is there so we can be sure it's a singular, decentralized, "immutable" data store.

I just don't see the point in defining blockchains so vaguely that even git counts. In practice, these are different systems that deserve different terminology.
> And you can permanently attach it to your headphones.

I can't permanently attach it to everything I might otherwise plug into my headphone jack, including things that I use occasionally but neither own nor have exclusive control over.

Sure, if I have one set of headphones, and use nothing else with the jack, the “you can permanently attach it” mitigation is, actually, something of a mitigation.

Also, Apple's adapter seems (from reports, including reviews at Apple's site) to either not support inline controls and headset mics consistently and/or to require plugging the adapter into the phone before the headset for some to work. And that's not even going to some cut-price, third-party charge+adaptor device.
> At least Apple has a small semblance of privacy in China.

No, they don't. China doesn't even let AWS operate in China without having all the network traffic filter and land in China. Nothing about the Apple network is different. Still towers in China, still servers in China.
Los sorprendentes beneficios del caldo de huesos
What if you replace age with "experience?" A candidate who has been working for 10 years as a software engineer but is worse at it than a candidate who has been working for 2 years is a worse candidate, if you're looking to hire someone who can grow. However, I don't think it should matter at what age those candidates' years of experience started.

Is it impressive that a 22 year old has 6 years of professional experience? Yes, certainly. Does it mean that they'll be better than a 40 year old with 6 years of equivalent experience? It's possible, but I suspect it'd be a weak signal at best.
The writing is a little ambiguous, but I read that more as saying that, as a foreigner, he simply wasn't part of the "real monks'" training regimen. He doesn't say if he tried to get in and wasn't welcome, or preferred to stay on the tourist side of things, but I didn't interpret it as saying that _because_ of the early wakeup times, he wasn't doing the real training.
Yes, a monopoly which harms consumers is bad.

You didn't at all answer my question.
It's easy to misunderstand what heritable or even genetically heritable means.

Consider just few hypothetical ways genes can increase g-factor:

* Metabolic trait increases nutrition intake in high calorie low nutrition junk food environment. This leads to faster brain development.

* Improved immune system against certain parasites that makes individual healthier and leads to statistically higher g-factor.

Genes that improve intelligence can change from generation to generation and be different in different geographic areas.

I thought the point of the Volt was to help GM transition to electric drive chain technology; that's how it was going to "save" GM, not through sales. At least, that's how I remember the then-CEO of GM describing it.

How was the Bolt developed? Was it largely an acquisition or in-house development? If in-house were the Volt teams instrumental?
I wonder if anyone has done the math at google if they can keep up. Each video is between 100MB to tens of GB I imagine, especially high-def ones. As more people come into the internet age, and more people start creating video content, the number of publishers, times the average number of videos a publisher makes over a lifetime, etc..

Same with Vimeo - the numbers have got to be astronomically slanted in favor of a cataclysmic loss of data at some point, or simply a policy of deleting things 10 years old (deemed no longer relevant). The internet archive is going to have its hands full if it's trying to back this thing up.
Quibbling over status is an interesting fallout of the same right-wing nationalist rhetoric. You're right though. He was a Saudi citizen, US resident on an O Visa with US citizen children on his way to a green card[1].

Also professional engineers (who are the only engineers able to use the title "engineer") do P.Eng exams, and must maintain education / practice credits throughout their career. They must also practice as an Engineer in Training and record several years of experience before even applying. So yes, a "real" engineer is quite a lot more involved than new CS grad getting with 1 year experience getting a job as "Senior Software Engineer".
iRealitatea Analfabetilor: Prima Sfintire a Catedralei Manuirii Neamului
Yeah, that is the problem.

I can buy something from China and pay without any problems. I can send money to my friend using my phone. I can transfer money quickly to a trading platform and buy some stock.

Sending money around and paying for things is easy today and Bitcoin does not make that easier for me. And while I guess a total collapse of the world could happen I feel that it is more likely Bitcoin collapses than Mastercard and my 200 year old bank (that is somewhat backed by my government).

I guess the thing Bitcoin has going for it for some people is buying drugs online but even there I've read that there is considerable resources thrown at monitoring the blockchain to identify buyers and sellers.
Yes, it is annoying. However, it's not as bad as I thought it might be. Since the display is quite big in size, I generally use one window on each half of the display and I don't feel I'm really missing out on vertical space too much. The DPI is sufficiently high that I don't find the horizontal size too small either, which was certainly the case with half of a 1920×1200 display previously.

On the other hand, it's sufficiently big that I don't generally need such a large space. I could have gone with a physically smaller 4K display with a higher DPI and still been very happy.
> They are still on his phone, but he can't get to them because Apple won't let me get to them.

What makes you think this is true? iOS clears up space on your disk when you delete messages, so presumably it’s actually clearing them out?
Better be careful with that...

From "Bicycle Repairman", by Bruce Sterling (1996) (This is a spoiler, BTW!):

"The mook speaks just like the Senator did, or the way the Senator used to speak, when he was in private and off the record. The way he spoke in his diaries. As far as we can tell, the mook was his diary.... It used to be his personal laptop computer. But he just kept transferring the files, and upgrading the software, and teaching it new tricks like voice recognition and speech-writing, and giving it power of attorney and such.... And then, one day the mook made a break for it. We think that the mook sincerely believes that it’s the Senator."

Oh, and just note that this was way before Black Mirror.
That's exactly what age discrimination is.
I believe Carlsen is on record as disliking the current format.

The way it works right now, the reigning champion does nothing until a challenger has earned the right to face him by winning a candidates tournament. Then the winner of the candidates tournament faces the reigning champion in a match for the title. Carlsen, as I understand it, would prefer that the champion take part in a tournament.

The women's championship (also played this month) does feature a tournament. 64 players were seeded, and played single-elimination two-game matches (with rapid games as tiebreakers). The final two players then faced each other in a four-game match (again with rapid games as potential tiebreakers). The final did go to tiebreaks, and was won by defending and now repeat champion Ju Wenjun.
I imagine a competent sysadmin deploying this won't just blindly copy/paste the `chmod 777` command into their terminal... this is likely just a "quick, getting started" sort of thing.

Since only the Firecracker user needs read/write access, it would be trivial to limit that to just the Firecracker user or group.
Do you Google Employees think that NSA isn't watching what we do? Mmm, it looks like China is evil so they can't do what USA can
Detroit automakers have for some reason been unable to complete with foreign carmakers in the US for some time now. Chevy sold about half as many Malibu’s as Honda sold of the Accord, same goes for Cruze vs Civic. What I don’t understand is how selling 180k vehicles (Cruze and Malibu) isn’t enough to consider them viable?

At the same time, am I crazy to think these companies won’t find themselves in or on the edge of bankruptcy again when the market changes?
Best Practices for Using Functional Programming in Python
Most people are buying laptops and every time that Microsoft tries to bring anything new to market with their OS, the race to the bottom OEMs won’t have the hardwarecto support it. Can you imagine Windows PCs having the right integration between the OS and something like the T2 chip?

Even worse is Android. Google releases a new OS and may see low double digit adoption after a year. OEMs have no incentive to push upgrades to their users. iOS’d ArKit can only work as well it does (not saying much bet still better than what Google could muster) because of tight integration between a known subset of hardware and software.

This isn’t even to mention all of the bespoke custom interfaces on Android and all of the adware on consumer PCs and Android Phones.
I'll just laugh when it ends up being majority of white males, simply because that's what there are mostly available. Perhaps it'll finally shut the patriarchy blaming people up.
The hope is that you'd buy the Apple-branded one. Obviously Bluetooth is an open standard -- but that was the business intent.

An adapter is less convenient to use than having the Headphone jack on the device.

Is it really that farfetched to think they removed the Headphone jack to increase profits? Clearly, I'm arguing for it, but if this absolutely out there, I'd like to be brought back more sensible thought processes.

Not even the included earbuds with an iPhone purchase come with a 3.5mm jack. It's Apple's proprietary port, so you can only use Apple's wired earbuds with Apple products.
I've never run into Bluetooth congestion problems on public transit or busy streets. BT has a lot of problems, this really isn't one of them.

There are some BT devices that have poor antenna designs and underpowered transcievers, where the proximity of other humans — or even your own body — can significantly attenuate the signal. But this isn't a problem with the spec itself, and there's plenty of devices that have shown it's possible to do it right.
How are you deciding what people “need”?
I heard a story (not sure if it's true) when I was a fencer. At one time in fencing, there was a rule about inactivity. If you refused to fence, the period ended and the next period started. There are three periods. If all three periods ended this way, it went to a one point suddend death matchoff. Well, one individual felt he liked to win with a lot of panache. As I heard it, he would deliberately incur three inactivity penalties to send the match to a one point sudden death where he would try to pull off a daring victory. So I think there is precedent for the idea of really skilled competitors thirsting for something more thrilling.
There are other interpretations that square with this obvious contradiction. The founders may have believed as Aristolte that man was a rational animal and those lacking rationality were not men but just animals and fit to be slaves. More likely though they did not mean the equality of White and black but the equality of themselves and King George, stripping him of his divine right to rule. Using this quote to justify contemporary egalitarianism is ridiculous.
