The right to free speech is a 'negative right'

However countries like the U.S. have restrictions on those rights -- e.g. shouting fire in a crowded theatre, because society accepts that actions have consequences, and there's always a balance. You have the right to swing your fist, but not to hit me. You have the right to eat food, but not if it's in my cupboard. You have freedom to move, but not across private land (or borders).
The ancient Greeks put the “Euclid” into “Euclidian geometry”. It took until about 1813 for that to be replaced with non-Euclidian geometry, and everything that makes General relativity really interesting is non-Euclidian.

Ahh.

thing is: you are a subscriber, not a 5G procurer.

Telcos are concerned with how many people like you they can support at once with how much power and opex and capex.

If 5G tech provides n*cell throughput, for 1/n capex and/or opex and you (as a subscriber) see no benefit vs LTE then it will please Telco's much. However, 5G may make a big impact on your experience as well.

I don't know how you measured the latency; but remember that these numbers can be very deceptive due to network technology pretending to do things that it isn't really doing. That's fine when you run a speed test, but not if you are being treated at the side of the road.

I'm a business owner and working on a startup, and I'd back a high marginal rate. But my concern is that governments are terrible at spending tax money effectively. I'm all for my disposable income being used for the greater good but I expect that the money would be gobbled up by wasteful bureaucracy and administration, or doing things I disagree with like sponsoring war or building surveillance dragnets.

I'm from the UK and the 2018 budget's total public expenditure for the 2019/2020 year is expected to be £842 billion [1]. That's £12,757 per person [2] - almost half the average salary [3]. I don't think the problem with our government is a lack of money, and I can only presume the situation in the US is similar.

Do you know about `git commit -p`? You might like it even more than `git add -p`.
In certain locations, I too can get those kinds of speeds. But when I actually go to use it over long periods and over more normal work loads (e.g., while travelling along the CalTrain corridor in SV, particularly in the San Antonio/Palo Alto area), I'll routinely get 20 second latencies; it quickly makes 200-300ms latency feel like stuff is "working".
> "Tech" here is actually just infrastructure; it's table stakes and not interesting at all.

Agreed. Especially when tech becomes commoditized enough that anyone can pick and run with it. And that is what has happened with Netflix. Most companies have realized that getting a streaming service is easy and are trying to get a slice of the OTT pie.

But Netflix might actually be valued less and less as time goes by. This is simply because producing content was not their forte and now that they are into content production it will take a concentrated effort to maintain both, good quality of content and a great streaming service. They will be able to pay for content production using the money from streaming but couple of mistakes and both businesses will be affected.

This similarly applies to content producers as well. Their forte was to produce great content and not the OTT service. So, they might be able to pay for their OTT division using the profits from the media division. But on a longer time frame many, if not all, streaming services will be unable to replicate the success of Netflix.

On a longer timeframe I expect Disney or someone to acquire Netflix or some companies selling their streaming services back to Netflix.
When you say sustainable, do you mean, is it possible to train another generation of engineers to take over the maintenance and development of the software?

I wonder about software that has a secondary or supporting role in the ecosystem. Working on them does not provide the level of career opportunities that seem to be available from working on core distributed computing or machine learning platforms. Apparently the default is that they will be abandoned in place.

I daily drive a LEAF for 4 years now. It's not the most technically advanced electric car (for sure!). It doesn't have the longest range. What it does have is "incredibly cheap (among new cars)" "widely available" and "very low maintenance (mine has literally only needed wiper blades and has never darkened the service bay of the dealership since delivery)". Price is a feature.

I suspect the LEAF has done a lot more to drive Chargepoint network adoption, as just one example of a market development where the LEAF is more influential than Tesla.

> Shenoute is now considered a saint in the Coptic church, but his piety manifested itself in a particularly ugly guise: he was part of a gang of thugs who would break into the houses of locals whose theological views they felt to be unsound, and smash up any property they objected to on religious grounds.

> Early in the book, she describes how she was brought up in her youth to think of late-antique and medieval Christians as enlightened curators of the classical heritage, diligently copying philosophical texts and poems throughout the ages so that they were saved from oblivion. Her views in this matter have evidently shifted somewhat over time. In this book, early Christians are much more likely to close down the academies, shut temples, loot and destroy artwork, forbid traditional practices and burn books. Rather than praising Christians for preserving slivers of classical wisdom, she argues, we should acknowledge how much was knowingly erased.

And quoting another article about the same book:

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/08/books/review/catherine-ni...

> And so she opens her book with a potent description of black-robed zealots from 16 centuries ago taking iron bars to the beautiful statue of Athena in the sanctuary of Palmyra, located in modern-day Syria. Intellectuals in Antioch (in ancient Syria) were tortured and beheaded, as were the statues around them.

I personally find that it's very important to know the past, so that it won't be repeated in the future.

> Basically, any suggestion to improve sleep by boring myself to death for 6 hours is a non-starter, and the holier-than-thou attitude of people on the internet who do so is starting to annoy me.

Sure, but the flip side is you get a whole lot of "I just can't sleep a normal number of hours at a normal time, I guess I'm just built differently" and... well, no, probably not. I mean maybe. But probably not. You just like Netflix or late-night hacking or video games or whatever, too much to get a healthy amount of sleep. So does everyone else, to varying degrees.

And it's less a trade against end-of-life years as a trade against your ability to remember what you did or learned today tomorrow, and much shorter term mental and physical health issues (harder time with weight and blood pressure, generally lower energy and happiness, and so on). Though yeah, go for it. Most of the rest of us do, too, just not because sleep is some really hard thing that people are bad at and ordinary daytime schedules are unreasonable and demanding like many special Internet snowflakes claim (Nb not accusing you of making any such claim), but because our homes are, 24/7, more entertaining and brighter than a mid-tier amusement park.

High carb diet's aren't responsible. It's protein restriction. Leucine in particular stimulates IGF-1 which in turn increases mTORC1 activity which then tells the cells to grow and proliferate. That's great news if you're a growing child, but not so great if you're in old age.
There isn't a "the guy" who did "the hack"; this is an aggregate compilation of a series of low-quality elements that have mostly lost their market value. It's the computer security equivalent of this: https://smile.amazon.com/Midnight-Movie-Madness-MegaPack-Dig... 50 low-value movies for $11.99. Note the distinction between "low value" and "no value". Yes, you might find something you like in there, as some of the reviewers did, but the economic value of this stuff has passed.

My point is that the market value has been lost because there actually is some churn in passwords and accounts. If 99% of the credentials in this hack still worked, it would not be getting sold at this price at all; it would be selling something worth tens or hundreds of thousands, if not millions to the right buyer, for You Pay Only $44.99. Not gonna happen. It can't be worth all that much to most buyers if that's all they're selling it for.

Or it's just so widespread that it's worthless, although I'd suggest in that case that we'd have heard about it earlier. Have I Been Pwned actually has some hookups in that world.

> Tesla might not be selling that many cars, but they are the major reason why established brands like Volkswagen feel pressure to "catch up" and massively invest in new EV lineups.

No. While Tesla is a factor, the major reason for the EV investment is new legislation and regulations being introduced in the EU, China, and the US.

Germany, for example, is talking about banning new ICE car sales by 2030: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-autos-emissions-germany-i...

Paris is talking about banning ICE cars from the city by 2030 and even banning diesel cars by 2024 (not very fair on diesel owners): http://fortune.com/2017/10/12/paris-combustion-engine-ban/

As part of Volkswagen's settlement agreement for the emissions scandal, VW is required to build an EV supercharger network in the US (Electrify America). VW's attitude is that since they need to build it they may as well make use of it: https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1116375_electrify-ameri...

I think Volkswagen will be the biggest producer of EVs within the next 3 years.

Toyota might overhaul them in the long run purely because Toyota is the world's biggest car company. But Toyota seems to be behind in their EV program. It'll be interesting to see how much ground (if any) Toyota will have lost to Volkswagen 10 years from now.

Light that comes within 3/2 of the Schwarzschild radius (Rs hereafter) gets captured by the black hole. Of course I don't mean that it beelines in a direct radial direction to the singularity. Of course it takes a curved path depending on its exact trajectory, but at some point on this trajectory it hits the event horizon. Nothing that hits the event horizon can ever come back out again (according to an observer at sufficient distance).

This magic 3/2 Rs radius is the Innermost Bound Circular Orbit (IBCO), and is the truthfully correct scientific principle that you are grasping for. It is not a stable orbit, but it is an orbit. In a theoretical world, if a photon had the perfect trajectory to enter this orbit, it could orbit there indefinitely, but it is unstable, so in the real world it doesn't happen this way.

If a photon hit outside of the IBCO, then its trajectory is affected by the pull of the black hole, but it escapes the gravity well, and continues on a new trajectory elsewhere into space.

After the photon hits the event horizon, then all statements needs a big asterisk with them. Its behavior might be observer-dependent or undefined. But at least in the conventional view of general relatively equations, it doesn't need to travel directly in the radial direction to the singularity, but it has to travel within a limited cone of possibilities, none of which lead back out. It can change its angular position somewhat as it gets closer to the singularity, but there is no orbit. No light cone within the event horizon allows for increasing the distance between a point particle and the singularity. In these conventional equations, all things that fall into the event horizon _hit_ the singularity within finite time according to a distant observer. Time has some shifty meaning to things inside of the event horizon, and maybe this is all wrong. But I am sure that orbiting the singularity inside the event horizon definitely does not happen.

Go and fuck yourself you ignorant MRA cunt
I think it's ironic that you were so worried about your dog and thanking that it didn't have any medical requirements because something disastrous could have happened however you left your pet who should be like your child with a complete stranger and not only a complete stranger it's someone who right off the bat appeared to be a fraud! If it were me I would have either canceled my flight or rescheduled my flight because no vacation or leave away from home with an irresponsible possibly psychopathic individual who you have no idea who or what their intentions are you still made the decision being of sound mind to leave your pet with said individual. If something had happened to your pet who would you blame Wag or Rover or would you blame yourself for seeing signs that this was not what you signed up for. I feel like this is exactly the type of situation where people should be accountable for their own pets and or children and not use a company who obviously does not screen their employees to the best of their ability or maybe not at all. Reviews can be faked background checks cannot. You were the one that dropped your pet off and left. I feel like this is exactly the type of situation where people should be accountable for their own pets and or children and not use a company who obviously does not screen their employees to the best of their ability. Unfortunately companies like these who are basically Outsourcing their jobs two people who may possibly have absolutely no qualifications or reason to be doing what their role should have included in the description of the service. However an individual knowing that these services are not held to any standard or requirements unfortunately companies like these who are basically outsourcing their jobs to people who may possibly have absolutely no qualifications or reason to be dealing with what they're all should have included in the description of the service. However an individual knowing that these services are not held to any standard or requirements should out of Common Sense know that is them that needs to do the legwork because the company obviously isn't and is most likely Trading that off for being able to pay little to nothing for their workers because that's exactly what most of them are probably worth.

It sure shows that the sentence "you only pay for the features you use" is wrong at least.
Most physicist probably don't think that black holes actually have a singularity and attribute singularities predicted by general relativity to the fact that the theory is only approximate and breaks down under the conditions at the center of a black hole. Just because the equations say there is a singularity does not mean that there is a real singularity.
Thanks so much for posting this! This was one of the most technically interesting projects I have worked on and was a great opportunity to learn a huge amount about scaling systems.

In order to make running the crowdfunding easier for ourselves we added new tools for load shedding, optimised our apps to reduce the number of API calls and prepared crowdfunding specific runbooks. These steps made a huge difference on the day. Hopefully you all manage to learn something from our experience.

For context Monzo is a bank in the UK and last month we crowdfunded £20 million from 36,000 users through our own platform. We run the bank on our own software stack using Kubernetes & AWS, which we used for crowdfunding too.

If you have any questions please do let me know and I will do my best to answer them!
I feel like I've seen people say more than once that you can do things like this to improve the performance of C++ to what you see from this post with the "C with classes" style and reimplementing various bits of the stdlib. However, I don't believe I've ever seen somewhere that demonstrates this capability, and like you said, the "right solution" is not enforced, or is awkward, or hard to discover. What I would legitimately like to see, is something that takes something like what the author was doing, but also uses these features of C++ that seem to be talked about, but harder to find demonstrations of. Especially considering this is a relatively small amount of realistic code, I would love it if someone were to reimplement it using a custom allocator or memory pool or whatever other C++ features are available to get the performance to where it is in what the author wrote (or better?) to act as a kind of tutorial for how to use these things. This is something I'm particularly interested in because I've been learning some C++ again and playing around with writing some stuff with SDL, and would love to be able to incorporate the nice features of C++ into what I'm writing.
