>The judeo and christian are morally antithetical. The basis of christ and christianity is the fundamental shift from judeo values and morals to christian ones.

I have Jewish friends, they are not morally antiethical to Christian values, they are moral people who I love.

Everything I know about Judaism informs me that its practioners share my morals.

Please state specifically where you believe the gap between Judaic morality and Christian morality lies?

Can you say why you cringe at the term Judaeo-Christian?
No. You are showing people how to copypasta some GUI code from an article.
By the title you’d assume these are candid shots of people in real life situations with the phones digitally removed.

The actual method the photographer used was to stage situations, and acquire models to act out scenarios for maximum effect.

I don’t know how the production of said images will effect the viewer - but I think it’s important to point out - as it does effect the content. This is staged art. This isn’t documentary.
> Richardson has found Waymo's prices to be relatively expensive. Richardson said that he recently considered taking a Waymo ride that would have cost $14. "Lyft cost a dollar less for the same trip," he said. "Uber was two dollars less."

This seems like a very odd pricing decision by Waymo. Even if they are subsidizing the cost of the rides, shouldn't they be cheaper than (or at least on par with) their competitors? Especially given that it's an inferior service right now?

Perhaps they are betting on having enough early adopter / fanboy users in their closed beta that price is immaterial. Just seems surprising to me that they aren't investing a little more in subsidies here.
This could be very helpful to staffing agencies. You can alert them when one of their customers puts a new job on their career site, when a member of staff leaves or just provide them with insight into the client so they have conversations points beyond remembering they have a dog.

I’ll show it to a few of our customers and hopefully they get in touch with you.

All the best with your new venture.
The US talks about respecting human rights, but has no problem with 1 million dead Iraqi civilians.

Individual Americans may respect human rights. Just like individual Chinese do as well. But when you challenge them as a nation, well, then the needs of the stong outweigh the needs of the weak.
Net G relative to your frame of motion is zero G is a better way to put it.

G is a unit. 9.81 Newtons. So 3G is 3*9.81 newtons.

Looking at these photos makes me realize we have a major body posture problem. No wonder people are having pain in the neck and back a lot!

Also, the physicality of looking down all the time, hunched over, bent neck, is a literal embodiment of the word "downcast" -- and we wonder why depression is at an all time high. We literally practice being downcast all the time.

Looking at this and having these thoughts makes me realize that I need to adjust my phone habits.
If you change it from human rights to American rights, then I'd agree with your statement.
You can reject a candidate based on any conversation you may have, regardless of what they say. But why?
How do you feel about critical mass for average users though? Debian updating its repositories every two years is kind of antithetical to the android and mac idea of software repositories. I've not tried elementaryOS, but I thought it was similar.
> Both in JS or Rust, you don't gain anything just by declaring your thing to be async, or awaitable.

I'm not familiar with Rust but in JS you do gain something. Just the fact that the function is async means that it now explicitly returns a promise, which means that anything awaiting that promise will be in a new execution context and will definitely not run synchronously.

I buy cars for longevity. I expect them to be able to last me at least 10 years if not 15.

Tesla doesn't have that track record yet. And is there anywhere to get them serviced other than dedicated dealers? It's a lot of money to potentially be lighting on fire when other fine, reliable vehicles are available.

And, yeah, Musk concerns me since he seems like he is Tesla. If he takes down the company...

I see no upside to a Tesla other than the cache of 'I own a Tesla'
That's exactly the point.

> and even books

If you've never gotten into a dopamine cycle with a good book (we usually just call this "a page turner" or "couldn't put it down") then I think that's kinda sad itself.

Books are definitely designed to make you addicted to them in a similar way that apps and games often are.
As an artistic statement this just feels... infantile.

Before phones, people were reading books or magazines separately in bed, or reading newspapers on the train. When I traveled to various third-world countries before phones were a thing and people didn't have money for newspapers, people stared blankly out into space on the train or bus or shared van. People weren't social with strangers. In various modern African cities, I just couldn't believe how much boredom was part of everyday life. And there didn't seem to be any redeeming qualities to the boredom... just boring, boring boredom.

Likewise (back in the US), children out at a cafe with the parents would sit drawing or reading children's books or yes, being bored out of their skulls (instead of on a cell phone now with books or games that practice hand-eye coordination). I remember long car trips as a child as excruciatingly, horribly, mind-numbingly boring.

And as for photos showing someone photographing... we've had cameras for many decades... I don't get the point at all.

I'm not even remotely convinced that phones are somehow making us less social. Rather they save us from extreme boredom, keep us in close touch with out intimate friends all day long if we choose, and even make it so much easier to see people and flexibly change plans. Remember when being "stood up" was a thing? In my experience it's... not, anymore. Someone will send you a message an hour beforehand they won't be able to make it, saving you a trip and letting you make new plans if you want.
Worth noting that the use of black and white isn't just an Instagram-style filter being applied in Photoshop; the photographer is making these images on black and white film, using a large format camera that's not too different from the ones people were using to take portraits a hundred years ago. You can see a picture of the artist and his camera on this page [0].

Bitcoin scammers send bomb threats across US, causing evacuations
Well, they don't. And more generally, restoring the original session state, whether after a "hot exit" or not, is not really possible. Processes are bound to a running OS. Shutting down causes closed file descriptors, broken TCP connections, and what not. No matter how much effort you are willing to put into restoring a session, it will be unreliable at best.
I'm also always struck by the culture gap when Falun Gong tries to communicate to western audiences. The main slogan that I've seen on banners at their protests: "Falun Dafa Is Good".

Congratulations, you've just confronted the suspension of disbelief regarding pornography, such that having a camera in the room somehow renders the act as "not prostitution" by virtue of performers (rather than johns and hookers) "putting on a show."
Title "Removes phones from photos" is a false statement not claimed in the linked site. Mods, please fix.

How many children do you hold imprisoned right now?
How many children have been defending themselves in courts recently?
How many women, trans or otherwise have been suffering at the hands of your anti-women/abortion movement?

You don't even prosecute the people who commit atrocities in your own country, much less those that commit them in others.

You don't have respect for human rights or values.

As an institution, you are monsters.
Monzo in the UK is a great example of non-bricks and mortar bank. I know that UK financial startups always find it hard to break into America simply because banking laws are crazy over there. But I would expect a lot of the UK Fintech to think about trying to break america soon.

A few theories. (From the simpliest to the more complicated)

1. The person who wrote this article is very uneducated about this and they're showing their insecurity.

2. They're trying to defer blame of the problem to a pseudo-anonymous group

3. They're trying to avoid putting blame on Mrs. Wojciki due to personal views on identity (identity is a relevant point as that they have a massive bias on what identity and content they want others to find successful)

I'm going to go with #1 because they're pretty preachy.
The desirable parts of town are all built out. Summerlin for example.
Completely agree that the crisis wasn't caused by generic volatility, but any mathematical limitations pale in comparison to the human failure of manipulating ratings due to a conflict of interest caused by private rating agencies. That is what the paper you linked concludes, versus your initial claim:

>poor mathematical modeling of the statistical properties of collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) was the underlying cause of the bottom falling out of that market.

The model is hardly to blame when falsified inputs yield poor results.

> But if you throw it just right, the rock could hypothetically have a trajectory that is perfectly parallel to the mountain slope (in reality, due to things like air resistance, this isn't all that feasible).

Not quite. Ignoring air resistance, any throw you could possibly produce will have a parabolic trajectory, which means it could be parallel with the mountain slope only if the slope itself is parabolic.
Our education system needs to teach critical thinking skills and media literacy.
> Agile is such a vague thing that it's impossible to say whether it works.

Agile methods aren't really particularly usable across orgs for the same reason prior methods weren't; the Agile Manifesto states “individuals and interactions over processes and tools”, but the Agile community is all about processes and tools at the same level, if with different content, than the processes and tools the Manifesto was talking about. How do you prioritize individuals and interactions? The Agile literature doesn't really address this. (Lean, for instance, does through higher-level processes and tools by which teams establish ownership and control of the main processes and tools, which meta-processes are subject to themselves so that he team owns the meta-process as well as the lower-level process.)
I once (accidentally) setup a mail group with itself as a member.

Everything was fine until the first message came in, and a few minutes later I hear "Uh, why do I have 5,000 new emails?" "Woah, I have 9,000", "Oh, mine is at 15,000 now!".

I don't remember what it got up to before we managed to get into the now-very-slow mail server to fix it, but it was in the hundreds of thousands. Luckily it was only internal mailboxes.
You seem to be projecting your own feelings onto the pictures.

I'm not surprised and as I say in the article "A heads-up would have been nice, but still, that's their prerogative."

I do understand why they would want to move in the direction they are, but I also think authors in particular should be aware of the trends and make choices that will benefit them, rather than Medium, in the long run.

What's a bit sneaky here is that they have been selling authors on the fact that they own the content, and the fact that you can move it elsewhere later (including updating canonical links). It's a bit like a SaaS offering an export function, but after you put a lot of your data there they quietly remove it. For bloggers, you can't claim to give them proper data portability without a way of updating the canonical links.

Virgin Galactic reaches space and is one step closer to space tourism
Great article, but I don't think that Virgin Galactic is really in the same market directly competing with the likes of SpaceX or Blue Origin. There is a place for all three, but Virgin Galactic is just about LEO space tourism. SpaceX's stated mission is to make humans a multi-planetary species and start a mars colony. Slightly different things.

Intriguing.

Seems like the judgment of "depressing" or "creepy" one puts on these images comes from foreknowledge of what the subjects are reading on those phones.

For example-- is there a popular app that helps citizens effectively organize resistance against a burgeoning fascist government without giving side-channel access for nation-state influencers to easily undo that effort?

If the dad were posting on that and the kid viewing the thread, that would seem pretty cool and important.

But I don't think that app exists, which may be close to the fundamental problem than the hardware itself. In reality the overwhelming likelihood is that whatever the pair are reading is not as valuable as the quality time dad and son are missing out on.
From an Eastern perspective, this is 100% clear-cut morally bad too.

Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism would all say this is bad.

What’s going on here is not culture, but government.
That means that for every incrementer you create, you've also got to allocate two additional functions: value and increment. They have to be distinct objects, because `incrementer().value === incrementer().value` must yield false.

Debugging is also harder. When you're debugging and you find an incrementer somewhere else in your program (maybe somewhere unexpected), how do you know what kind of thing you have? All you can tell is that it's got a value and an increment method, so you've got to do a bunch of grepping over your source to find where it comes from. If it were a class instance you could ask instance.constructor.name to find out that it's an Incrementer, so you can grep for `class Incrementer`.

Yes, lambda can do everything, which is really cool to learn! But lambda isn't the ultimate. More specialized tools often carry benefits.

I presume not FDIC-insured.
here the catch, I believe:
1. it's ensured by SIPC, not FDIC, so it's not as safe.
2. They're going to lower that 3% rate down whatever all the other banks are at (2%) in a couple of years, unless the interest rates catch up to their higher rate, which they are expected to do in about 2 to 3 years: at that time, 3% will be roughly the norm for the highest interest savings accounts.

I remember the days when Citibank would give out 4% interest about a decade ago. now of course, it's about 0%. It's just classic bait and switch.
A) they really like/want the house (maybe supply is tight)

B) they didn't put an appraisal contingency in the offer

Or

C) they think prices are going up and think they can make a quick dollar riding the wave

Colloquially known as 'the vomit comet'
I attribute the highly expensive nature of NYC subway to politics, since similar services don't have overall cost anywhere near what New Yorkers pay in fees and taxes. The new chief of the MTA is asking for $40 billion to upgrade the system. They should be able to build three new New York subway systems from scratch with that kind of money.
On a side note. Google should allow users to ignore page's age as a ranking criteria. I am not comfortable with the fact that some articles are lower in search results simply because they were written long ago.

I think Simple was supposed to be that. I wonder how they'll respond to this, given that they only recently moved to 2% ($2k minimum).
The pricing is pretty much guaranteed to be a loss for Waymo, since their safety drivers are compensated better than Uber drivers, the cost of the vehicles, the maintenance for the vehicles, and the insurance is all probably also higher.

Presumably they're charging for the sake of charging for it, and to see what prices work and what prices don't. I would guess a lot of people would pay an extra dollar for the novelty value of riding in a self-driving car.

"Tell us a story about how you took down production."

We had a real need for batch queries, so I built a declarative batch query mechanism for our in-house ORM. To do this, we needed to make actual objects representing database relations. Unfortunately, the "collections of lambdas" we were using as an ORM had started getting polluted with buisness logic. So I used a parser/rewrite engine to match the un-polluted DB transformation lambdas and to substitute DB column and relation objects implementing the same logic in the un-polluted lambdas.

I checked in a massive change affecting 2500 of the ~5000 lambdas, syntactically matching the logic in all 2500 of those with the parser framework, and then also vetted everything by hand. I was 100% sure the logic was duplicated exactly. This would allow us to introduce the objects, and it would also stop the march of business logic into the DB framework. Everything checked out in QA, so we moved it to production.

Production immediately came to a screeching halt. However, in under an hour, I discovered that a coworker had polluted an even lower level of the ORM framework with business logic. (The code that called the lambdas in the first place.) We replicated that logic in the new framework, and everything worked 100%. I also came out a huge hero in the end, because the batch query mechanism I introduced reduced the average number of queries for opening a portfolio from ~2500 to only 50, and because it was declarative, it could be reused by any programmer very easily.
And nothing will change, as usually. Russia attacked Ukraine - lots of countries said how unhappy they were and that's all - nothing happened.

China is too strong, so companies will still make deals, will still buy and sell there, will just do whatever the China government wants. The same with the politicians bought by the companies.

Any tribunal will not change anything. Even UN is paralyzed as the all sanctions against China will get China's veto and there won't be any decision.

Even when Mr. Trump made concentration camps for children (just like Germans did during the WW2) did anything change after publishing the information about that?

So my final thought is quite sad: nothing will change, live on, be happy that you live in such a country which respects some other values (e.g. exploits work of children in Asia but not your children, so you can think that nothing happens).
I think of myself as fairly paranoid as well, but age and wisdom and paranoia shouldn't be a requirement for basic privacy.

Ok, so others have pointed out that there isn't any GUI creation really going on here, so I'm not going to harp on that.

However, since we're on the topic of GUI creation, why isn't there a way for users to compose simple GUIs to meet their workflow needs? Something like HyperCard was?

Part of the reason a lot of people love the command line so much is how it allows you to compose solutions to unique problems in a simple way. Why doesn't that exist in the GUI? Where is the UNIX philosophy applied to the GUI?

Ok, so there's SmallTalk environments, but they're strange and require you to learn a whole new language and paradigm just to get started. Where's UNIX's answer?
