But surely the best move for the EU in that situation is to offer the worst deal possible, take it and you get fucked over, making staying in the union more attractive and you have a nice example to show anyone else who considers leaving? I don't get how you think that the EU would offer a sweeter deal to allow the UK to leave easier?
Not really. Look up lazy portfolios by Bogleheads. If you continue to invest it can grow for you. I mean not at insane levels but definitely a decent return for many.
I don't get why she can't just rescind article 50, and get rid of brexit altogether.

And to add to these questions - what are the consequences for increasing charging rates? Tesla has made some public statements regarding fast(er) charging (specifically targeting the 350kW Ionity chargers) to the effect that pushing that much power will degrade the batteries far faster for little gain.

Edit:

> Our technology is able to decrease the irreversible chemical reactions that happen during charging, so that the same batteries can be charged fast without compromising cycle life.

This seems to imply it's doing something to the battery chemistry? Maybe a brief pulse of high-rate discharge every now and then to help balance things out?
> experienced some pretty severe sleep deprivation

Is this actually thought to cause Alzheimer's? Sleep deprivation leads to temporarily higher levels of a protein known to build up in Alzheimer's patients, but I think this is consistent with an explanation that folks without Alzheimer's clear that protein when they catch up on sleep.

Whether or not Mapbox collects more data is an interesting question. My guess would be they do, by a lot.

If you look at their website, Mapbox is all about "live" location data, insights, etc. The days of them just being a provider of nice services built around (mostly) open data are probably over. They have a huge userbase and can leverage all that data to do powerful things.

I had the DX-3500 I bought in 2001 (and had till I upgraded to a Fuji Finepix S5100 in 2005).

Looking back at the photos it took (on a 32MB CF I bought for USD 32), I'm surprised as to how good they were and how they are comparable (at least without pixel peeping) to a 2014-era smartphone.

I think smartphones, particularly the iPhone, set us back a few years in photo quality where the convenience of an always accessible camera made us ignore the obvious lower quality images that they produced.
If you look at photos on social media from 2004-2010, you'll see that they are often higher quality than more recent photos, though we are now at a tipping point where computational photography has started to make up for the smaller lenses and poorer optics of phone camera.
To be fair, the glass is often full of gasoline.

The tax thing doesn't make any sense at all so I'll ignore it.

Making it illegal to neglect your dependents is already codified into law in a couple of places, like alimony, but a general purpose law runs into the problem of defining neglect and enforcing it. It's the sort of thing that is a total mess in the courts with an endless parade of he-said she-said cases.
I'm not arguing whether or not those services actually "make you the product", I'm just railing against this annoying rhetoric that "being free" in itself somehow makes a service exploitative.
It's not affecting foreign automakers nearly as much for two reasons:

The Japanese automakers have really worked hard to make their manufacturing lines (and vehicle designs) modular (a line that makes Camrys on Monday can make RAV4s on Tuesday), the foreign automakers' sedan sales didn't slip nearly as badly as the domestic automakers did so a lot of their plants/lines are still profitable to operate, and the US has always been uniquely interested in trucks and SUVs so many of the foreign-owned plants here were already optimized for SUVs (e.g the BMW plant in America has made SUVs since its inception).
To play devil’s advocate, I’ve certainly seen plenty of cases where people start coding something—anything—with no coherent plan that they can articulate regarding how it is even supposed to work.

I grok the value of learning more as you explore the solution, but there’s a huge value in planning as well as you can ahead of time. The cheapest code to change is the code you never mistakenly wrote in the first place.
This.

I am a big supporter of government and do not consider efficiency a primary objective (a good one, but secondary).

To make a cartoony analogy: flight security would be more efficient if everyone flew naked with no hand luggage, but that would defeat the purpose of people traveling from place to place for their own reasons.

Likewise: the government has collected or generated that info; let's put it into a reasonably clean and accessible format so others (who, in the US, have funded its collection/generation anyway) can build upon it.
Given that package servers serve packages over HTTP, you can already do this, identifying the user you want to serve different packages by their IP.

However, the packages need to be signed by Fedora for the package manager to accept them, so this has been considered a pretty weak excuse for an "attack" for a while now. "Getting access to code-signing keys allows you to attack the people consuming signed binaries"—wow, you don't say!
On the other hand, it’s highly annoying to have to anticipate and ward off a whole range of uncharitable and/or unimaginative assumptions about why one would want to do such a thing before there is even an attempt made at a straight answer. If nobody knows the answer, I’d rather have no replies than yet another soliloquy on why nobody actually needs to optimize anything.
My understanding is that Evan's bonus was agreed upon years in advance when Snapchat turned down FB's various offers. The investors, represented by the board, wanted him to go for a large, somewhat risky, IPO instead of taking a sure thing and incentivized Evan to do so.
To be fair that was Delta force flying a plane to capture the signal pretty much constantly. They were not fucking around. There was no plan to take him alive.

Yup, the key point is they let you treat complex systems as a blackbox that either does or does not successfully support the end-user functionality/experience. Ideally the components of the blackbox are sufficiently self-regulating that the end-to-end functionality is never interrupted, but complex systems by their nature exhibit emergent behavior that may not register as anomalous at a per-component level.

Totally agree the nuances regarding levels of coverage between various end-to-end testing mechanisms is an interesting subject. Generally speaking I think it's preferable for canaries to essentially be continuously-run integ tests, but this is not universally applicable. Deep integ tests may be too resource-intensive to run continuously. Integ tests also aren't always ideal for monitoring behavior of long-lived resources as they typically start from a blank slate, create some new resources, test their functionality, and then clean them up. Canaries may be geared towards validating state that persists indefinitely by design.

Terms of Service are really out of control, and probably need a democratic checkup. One cannot sign away constitutional rights, which means somewhere there is a line to draw.

When is a company abusing it's first amendment rights and dangerously coercing behavior, a la "yelling fire in theater"? At scale, this doesn't have to be explicitly extreme or violent to have actual extreme or violent effects.

When is it going too far against illegal search, by using technology that transcends physical, or psychic, boundaries?

When, really, have they crossed over your right to privacy, by accurately inferring very personal and private details you didn't share, from details you did?

I wonder what would happen if people flipped the script. Send Google a letter, stating your new ToS: "Your continued use of my data is $legalese, and if you don't reply with "no thanks", you agree to remit $dollars to me Monthly." If they don't respond, this is your new operating agreement.
Some things to bear in mind:

The portion of the population that typically bears children before 18 is not randomly selected. High-risk behaviors are common in that population. Fetal alcohol syndrome (from abuse in the previous generation) reduces pelvis size. Properly controlling for all these factors is difficult, and it might purposely not be attempted.

If delayed childbearing causes the entire window of childbearing years to shift, then we must also consider the risk with older mothers. By satisfying the urge for a family of a particular size, a birth at 17 might prevent a birth at 47. Modern medicine can do something about a difficult birth, but not very much about broken chromosomes.

Full physical maturity varies greatly by individual. One can measure.

I think UK had some serious negotiating leeway for simply being the UK. EU countries really want the UK inside the Union because it makes for a better union: it's a G8 country, a nuclear power and permanent member in the Security council, an economic behemoth with a large international clout, post-colonial ties and strong industrial and technological heritage. It has a massive internal market and rich consumers.

So it was always accepted that the UK can get more concessions than the average country, simply because they bring more to the table. But there's a limit to that, not even the UK can get what Brexiteers promised: unfettered access to the internal market coupled with full sovereignty to set any tariffs and enter any trade deals. That would effectively be the end of the EU.
Yikes. And this is why we don't use "clever" solutions.

For some context, gas (or operations expense) usage was never designed for re-entrency protection. After the DAO attack, in order to prevent re-entrency attacks the Solidity interpreter limited the gas of external calls.

It's clever way to solve the problem. However now when we're trying to change around the gas for certain operations, it's jeopardizing previous contracts that relied on this "clever" solution.

To be honest, this is really bad, cause I'm not sure how Ethereum can ever safely adjust gas.

Edit:

I'm not sure how Ethereum can ever safely adjust gas... until they go back and "monkey patch" all the smart contracts that used the external gas call limit. Since we only can see the compiled code, there's no real way to know if a deployer explicitly wanted that external gas call limit, or was just using it for re-entrency protection.
> Out of curiosity, how has "EU is telling us what to do" affected these people to make them so angry?

I left the UK a couple of decades ago, but my extended family (mostly in Yorkshire), all Brexiteers, hate "foreigners" and have always done so (scare-quotes necessary, because many of these "foreigners" are actually UK-born "Pakis"). There's really nothing they aren't willing to blame on some unBritish person somewhere. They're all comfortably off, certainly not victims of the Globalisation bogeyman. They're just straight up xenophobes.

I found this to be so common in much of England outside of London, that, not liking cities much, I spent most of my adult UK years in Scotland and N.Ireland (both of which have their own issues of course, but generally are more pleasant).

Still, I'm glad to have had the opportunity to leave a nation that I found to be in large part vituperatively small-minded.
Except now the cartels have expanded into smuggling people (and the attendant unsavory side businesses), and may make more money from that than drugs. It may seem unnecessary, but there's a lot of real human suffering directly arising from cartel activities. I certainly think there are better approaches to stopping them than what we've been doing for the last 30 years though.
> Why would I want to buy a sedan when I could buy a crossover SUV with the same fuel economy for the same price?

Because you live in a city designed for horses and carriages? It's tough enough driving a small sedan in Sydney, the idea of trying to park an American-style monster SUV here scares me. Much of Europe and Japan is exponentially worse.

Fun fact: in California, most lanes are 12 feet (3.7m) wide. In Sydney, many major roads including the Harbour Bridge have 2.8m lanes, and there are buses 2.5m wide driving on them.
There is a way around that. First of all, if you and your wife have two free accounts and share workspace subtrees with each other, you can double the free content limit.

I can understand the slippery slope threat in a proprietary system, but Fedora is a open system.

The majority of EU citizens that voted whether to join the EU or not ... voted against doing that. Ditto with expansion of the EU, constitution of the EU.

Should that be fixed too ?

For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_establishing_a_Constitu... (see "ratification")

The EU has a long history of ignoring democratic elections. That, to me, does not seem like a good thing at all, and yet it's becoming ever more clear that if you want the EU to exist at all, ignoring elections will be the cost: Both the current Greek and the current Italian government made promises of leaving the EU to get elected. Both have reneged, but of course other parties are springing up with more forceful leave rhetoric. Now French and German extreme-right parties promise to kill the EU if they get elected, and the more mainstream is forced to also take a more anti-EU stance in each country.

If either France or Germany decides to leave, then the EU experiment is over.

Personally I really dislike SUVs and Crossovers. But also when I was recently in the market for a different car, I viewed the same fact slightly differently:

Why do the American sedans have such poor fuel economy? They are only on par with SUVs. Most Asian sedans get significantly (10mpg+) better mileage. Why would I get a small car with the efficiency off a big car?

Perhaps now there will be a reckoning with the blatant illegality (in addition to the ordinary level of rampant political dishonesty) of the Leave campaign. A pragmatic recognition that the UK cannot haul anchor and sail off to some other latitude would not hurt either.

I was the OP - my thinking is that things are trending poorly.

The west and what it stands for is threatened both directly (Russian involvement in attacking elections both in the US, in the UK with brexit, and elsewhere) and indirectly (rise of authoritarian power/censorship in China). This is ignoring smaller, but still violent direct threats like ISIS.

With the remaining powerful moderates in Europe struggling (Merkel, Macron) and extremists waiting at the sidelines to be elected, increased nationalism and division from brexit could lead to more instability creating a situation where a large scale conflict is more likely or a west that isn't as united and can't respond as well to aggression from Russia.

I'm gonna have to agree with you on that. Successful 20 year veteran execs don't make big leaps lightly. Pulling the plug this quick is a very bad sign and you can't really blame "creative differences" or disagreements over control.

Slavery is orthogonal to capitalism.

Slavery is the belief that humans can be owned as property.

I suppose if property ownership is part of capitalism, then they have this slight connection, as communism is the abolishment of property ownership, and therefore, slavery would be impossible under communism.

I'm curious, in both of these cases—designing for use by people with Alzheimers, or for people on psychedelics—whether designs that work for these cases turn out to be better, more refined designs for the general population as well. Is it just a higher bar, or would such solutions over-fit and so work well for the one group and nobody else?
That probably has something to do with automakers spending the past decade teaching us that we should like SUV's.
