I think that, not being a pilot, I can't really understand, but thank you again for the perspective.

Edit: one last thing though - when the plane isn’t behaving as expected, why isn’t the first thing to check that all the control surfaces and the throttle are where you expect them to be?
Integrating the IHaveBeenPwned API into Linux Pam
For example, it would be trivial to default content be shared to friends only. If Zuck gave a true shit about privacy, that change could happen instantly, and years ago.
Was this service free? It seems that if sites were modifying the results page to re-arrange ads, they were probably using the Google Custom Search JSON API, which is a paid service ($5/1000 queries): https://developers.google.com/custom-search/v1/overview#Pric...
Just because they are larger than US doesn’t mean they are extremely large - I would argue it’s US fines that are too small, and regulators being too mild.

As for larger ever US fine - perhaps for Google. US can also be rough.
A financial product that is said to be a strong and will never fail according to some commercial analysts. Although other experts seem to disagree. (Deja vu)

Trading CLO's has been expanding. One could argue far beyond a point where there is enough safe companies to lend to. That must mean the risk for CLO's is growing (Deja vu again)

Continues low interest rates make people look for better returns on their investments and people selling products to fill that need. They may forget to make sure their clients understand that there are no save investments in the market at current Fed rates. (Can we say deja vu)

CLO's now cover leveraged loans, meaning loans with no collateral other than future profit. Like people taking out mortgages on for-rent properties. (Deja vu, deja vu)
Ah, but now you're talking about solving an additional problem, delay tolerant networking, on top of mesh networking. This adds a whole new layer of complexity on top of the mesh network, and would probably only work as you say for a subset of services that are made to handle this type of unreliable network.

Also many common delay tolerant network implementations rely on message replication to increase the probability of delivery of the message. This puts additional bandwidth strain on the inter-node hops of the network, which as some of the other commenters pointed out, not actually all that high.
We are already seeing the Chinese air pollution go down in the data. It's still insanely high, but the peak was reached ~2015 (I think) and decreasing very slowly.

They actually reached a regime where more reduction can increase the pollution because some pollutants react destructively with each other (eg VOCs, O3, NOx).
I don't disagree with the bad behavior by the US since WWII (and period before it as well).

>There's something to be said for having an album of photos that you pull out a couple of times a year to show a select group of others.

My perhaps unreasonable hope for a Facebook killer is just a paid personal archive of your own photos, writings, etc. with the assumption of privacy by default.
Not a tax accountant, but my understanding is that the cost basis gets reset when the property is inherited. If the home was already worth millions there wouldn't be any capital gains tax on it. (There only would be if prices go up more after inheritance.)

Not necessarily. It'd be one thing if these "friends" were people the child might actually know in real life, and whom have a meaningful relationship to the parents.

The problem starts for me with the fact that most of the "friends" people have on sites like Facebook are not actual friends, but acquaintances they might not have seen or talked to again for years. Most of the my "friends" on Facebook have hundreds of "friends", sometimes thousands. For all intents and purposes, most of those people are strangers.
It's not like there aren't countries where that exist.
I wonder if the author has ever tried to walk across a stroad. It is a horrible experience: 5 lanes of traffic with no crosswalks or traffic lights. Left turns over 4 lanes are similarly irksome. There is no need for this apologism for stroads: certainly the author is not arguing we build more of them. He says something has to give: let it be the cars.

I'm sure they'd love to pursue perfection if they were paid decent wage and not pressured to be as fast / cheap as possible.

It's easy to talk about perfection while sitting in a air conditioned office and slightly pressing on buttons while looking at a screen and getting paid 4-10 times the minimum wage these guys are getting while busting their asses outside no matter the weather.

> Personally, I drink all my water exclusively from a well. Untouched by human "sanitation" efforts.

Many things can be off with water coming from a well. Pollution, bacterias, &c. I hope you test / treat it often, otherwise it's not much safer than drinking tap water.
>increasing shopping conversion rates by 14 percent

To your point on fit, I suspect the 14% conversion rate they're claiming isn't accounting for what could be a material return rate.
Twice a day? Don't want to be offensive but that seems very excessive. Even for people I know on Facebook that post regularly their kids' photos I think the maximum I see is once a week. I'm not from the US and don't follow that many people so that might be why.

1. No one is going to get violent because they can’t find housing in the Bay Area.

More professors are radicalizing kids, and there are even examples of indoctrination of children at grade school levels documented. There are more campus

2. Violence is a very expensive endeavor for human beings.

There is an expansion of the amount of it committed by the Far Left in the US for the past several years. Before Christchurch, the Far Left had doubled the death toll of the Far right for the past two.

Trying to cram everyone into one tiny desirable geographically area in California is...

A part of how cities create wealth. The economic activity of SF would be expanded by taking up the difference in density between it and NYC.

5. Asking property owners to give up quality of life and environment for higher density homes with minimal benefit to them is most definitely asking them to GIVE UP something.

Is not asking them to give up quality of life. They could also move, by your same logic. Having more money, this would be far easier for them than for people working in restaurants and assistant professors and teachers.

Your "Asking property owners to give up quality of life" is actually rich and powerful people manipulating laws to stymie growth and market forces.

6. There is dignity outside certain zip codes in California.

Is there dignity in being forced to move away from one's home? It depends.

7. No. We can’t cram everyone who wants to live in the most desirable zip codes in California

We have historical precedents that indicate we can have about 30% more.

We can’t control how people feel about their entitlements or inadequacies or whatever.

We can avoid obvious rigged games and broken markets. Those things stick out like a sore thumb as something unfair.
Agreed, it's annoying. Ended up attaching the adapter to my headphone cable with a velcro loop, as I also need to use them in my Macbook, which doesn't have Lightning. Would be even more annoying if I had the iPad Pro and also needed USB-C dongle.

Not willing to go wireless as I use both for music making and wireless latency and compression is unacceptable. On phones I kind of understand it but IMO the iPad Pro not having a headphone socket is not excusable, there must be a way to fit it in.
Isn't that the past tense of wake?
Not just Silicon Valley–it's a West Coast thing. Go into any hip coffee shop in CA, OR, or WA, and you'll find a sea of MacBooks covered in stickers running brightly colored IDE's (and at least a few running vim).

The stickers are usually souvenirs from tech conferences, employers, cool startups, and hackathons.
If my parents did that I would definitely hate them forever.
I agree. This sounds more like an adolescent cringe than a position that will stand the test of time.
Sure it is, most phones have outstanding ambient noise cancellation, something that AirPods does not seem to have.
It's close enough to linux for most use cases. I can count on my hands the number of times I've needed to spin up a linux machine to debug an issue in the last four years. In the meantime I have an OS that I don't have to constantly maintain while also having access to up-to-date packages via homebrew.
There was both an audio and a visual indication of DUAL INPUT (light on the panel + "dual input" announced verbally). The co-pilot commanded priority take-over (from the pilot, who had just second previously done the same) without announcing it. This would have been clear if they looked at the panel that shows which side has priority, but in that confusion, their attention would've been elsewhere (airspeed and bank angle mostly).

I bought my AirPods the month they came out, and they're still going strong - and are the only reason I haven't switched my iPhone to an Android.

I hate to be "that person," but, man, they just work. Even though I use bluetooth headphones when working in the office, I get a sense of pleasure when I put my AirPods in and hear that "ding" to indicate they connected instantaneously to my phone. I don't need to turn them on / off, or fuddle with bluetooth settings and shit. Customizing the taps on each ear to have different functions has been a cool feature too that might be nice to have additional customization options in the future (maybe tie in with the Shortcuts app in some way?)

Granted, I feel lucky that they fit my ear perfectly - I definitely feel empathy for some others that have had to buy the extra rubber pieces to help them fit.

I've tried the Pixel buds and a few other competitors, but the gap in quality is pretty wide IMHO.
Are you talking about the earpods? I just bought the iPhone XR and I got the earpods but I didn't see any lightning adaptor. Now I have two earphones, one that only works on my phone and another that only works on my laptop - it's a real pain.
If the upshot of the class is anything other than we don't yet know how to make software secure or private, it's a drama class.

Has Amazon’s actions led Elastic to be more protective of its IP?

From my understanding and looking at Elastic’s documentation, it seems like most of the enhancements have been higher value tools, machine learnings, etc. AWS doesn’t open source everything so why expect Elastic to? Why does AWS deserve to capture the value on Elastic? Why didn’t AWS merge upstream changes into Postgres for columnar storage?

Long term, I just think a singularly focused company is going to do a better job maintaining and improving the project than a large one. Who is going to want to commit to a FOSS project is Amazon captures all the value? Why would Amazon continue to enhance the project if they put Elastic out of business?
I'd argue it is -- my earbuds stick the mic right near my mouth, and I can hold it nearer if needed. Not so with airpods?
Airpods are much worse than Earpods for conference calling, no matter what the situation.
At this price you're paying for recognisability and affluence signalling. Apple will be able to launch a 'limited series' of 'black airpods with gilded touch rings' - with the colour being the only differentiator from the regular product - at a 50% price increase and see considerable sales.
This is a pervasive problem, where 3rd parties unintentionally emotionally effect other people with their social media posts. I was going to relate a story about how this effects people in polyamorous relationships, but then I realized this effects literally everyone who cares about anything strongly. And the long memory of digital artifacts creates additional opportunities to mess with people down the road.
> The only time I've seen it be a problem for people is when they are playing fast and loose with people's data.

For sites not in the EU, see Article 27.

If you are not in the EU, and you processes personal data of people in the EU, and the processing is related to offering goods or services to those people (regardless of whether payment is required), Article 27 requires you to have a representative in the Union.

Note: do not mix this representative up with the Data Protection Officer, which may be required by Article 37. DPOs are generally only required for pretty big data processors, and if you are required to have a DPO there is no geographic limitation on where they can be.

Article 27 doesn't apply if the processing is only occasional and doesn't involve certain especially sensitive categories, but it is not at all clear what counts as more than occasional.

Note: common system logs, such as Apache logs, include personal data (IP addresses). Logging such data is probably not a violation of GDPR, but that doesn't make it no longer count as personal data. It still counts and so you still have to follow the rules for sites that processes personal data.

It also won't apply if goods or services aren't being offered to people in the Union, but that too is unclear. You site merely being accessible from in the EU is not sufficient, but it is not clear what beyond that counts.

There is no need to be playing fast and loose with data to be totally unsure if Article 27 applies to you or not.

Try the `-C` option as well. I think that's it. Enables network compression and it makes a HUGE difference over slow network links.
Perhaps I will. Thanks for the suggestion.

Consider for example CL:WITH-SLOTS, or CL-WHO:WITH-HTML-OUTPUT... such macros establish context, and are not really about delaying evaluation. On Lisp has a section about uses of macros, which is not exhaustive, but shows there's more to them than "delayed evaluation".

This issue actually can't be overstated. It's a real problem not only with elite schools, but even with a lot of non-elite graduates as well.

Not sure what a good solution for that is though?
Given gas prices, cost of oil changes, and the number of miles being driven per year it probably makes economic sense.

As someone who kept switching Window -> Linux -> Windows -> Linux -> finally Mac, I can say that a MacBook is a breath of fresh productive air for anyone developing software intended to run on a Linux server somewhere but still wishing to have photo/video-editing and ms office software at hand:

- all Linux stuff you'd want is available and "just works"

- default Terminal is amazing and enough for me and most (iTerm 2 is there for whoever wants more) you'll get a sane Linux-like experience where copy paste just works in the terminal etc. (not the hellish terminal experiences you'd have on Windows even with smth like WSL) - also, even things like the touchbar play well with Terminal, you can open a man page from touchbar, change terminal bg color shade from TB to mark a production server ssh terminal tab as "dangerous" with a shade of red etc. ...lots of "small touches" that matter a lot

- mac keyboard is amazing for developers (you'd get the wrong impression that it's bad for developers from people complaining about the touchbar upgrade, but disregard that):

-- having Cmd and Ctrl keys be different means that you can have all you unixy/emacsy ctrl-p/n/b/f/a/e just work in all your desktop GUI apps too (the feel of having ctrl-a/e work in Chrome, VSCode, and other "regular apps" is amazing!), and the same time you can Cmd+C/V copy/paste in the terminal same as in other app - it's hard to put in word the nice warm fuzzy feel this good mixing of unixy-world with GUI-world gives you! (it's the opposite of Windows where the "two paradigms" feel like locked in a cold war with each other and you always have to switch your brain when switching tools)

-- Fn key is in the right correct place you'd expect it, bottom left, just like on the Thinkpads you know and love!

-- OS settings allow easily remapping things like CapsLock -> Ctrl that lots of people will do (if you're more into Vim than Emacs you'll do CapsLock -> Esc, that's in standard settings too)

- multiple virtual desktops + external monitors etc. works productive and intuitively: if you love Gnome, you'll likely love MacOS too! (Also, tools like Divvy give you some features of tiling window managers if you're into this, and they also enable windows-like split-left/right shortcuts. Btw, there's an equivalent tool for Gnome/Gnome-based-Unity on Linux side too).

I'd urge all developers coding for Linux or Android to leave Windows for a while and try either (1) Linux on a Thinkpad (preferably a Gnome-based desktop if you're a developer new to Linux: Ubuntu, Pop!_OS, Fedora etc.) or (2) a MacBook: both experiences are slightly annoying to get used to at first, but dramatically increase your "feel good" factor and productivity! Windows may seem enticing hardware-wise (SurfaceBooks are amazing with their nvidia gpus etc.), but unless you write software targeting the Ms ecosystem, they are horrible machines for both developers and creative people imho... Window should be your last option in 2019 if you're a developer!
"Windows high DPI screens support sucks. I have a 4k screen and everything looks very small. There is an Accessibility option to increase the size of the windows. However, when you do that, most of the applications look very blurry and it is even more annoying."

In my opinion, Windows 10 has the best High-DPI support of all systems. It allows you to change scaling in fine increments on per-display basis. Moving windows from one display to another scales them pixel-perfect, if supported. Pretty much all applications I use regularly work fine.

On Linux, the only thing I found to work out reasonably well is 2x scaling. I can't speak for Mac OS, but in my recollection the non-2x scaling isn't pixel-perfect.

"The text is rendered very poorly in Windows, creating a kind of chromatic aberration around it."

This is ClearType sub-pixel rendering and again in my opinion it's the best font rendering of all platforms, though FreeType on Linux works about as well. Font Rendering on Mac OS is just blurry by comparison. With Retina displays it doesn't matter so much anymore, but it was really annoying on the lower res displays.

Perhaps the author has it misconfigured for his displays and needs to run the builtin "ClearType Text Tuner" tool.

"Microsoft has made great efforts to support the needs of developers and creators, but as of 2019, I think OSX is still a stronger option for developers."

If you implicitly rely on a lot of UNIX-specific stuff, Windows will suck. That probably won't ever change.
Obesity Is Now Africa’s Health Care Crisis, Too
Yes, and browsers worked fine back then. Their improvement has been quite inefficient memory-wise compared to native apps.
It's a bit more complex than that. emscripten tries to provide a full environment; it adds a runtime with features like a libc. It also produces some HTML and JavaScript to load up the wasm, etc. The new wasm target gives you none of that. This means smaller binaries for some things, but it's harder to get existing desktop codebases up and running.

(In Rust, we've had this new target for a while, and it's where we're putting in all of our development efforts. We still technically support the emscripten target as well.)

Microsoft “temporarily pauses” Office 365 sync unless Outlook is installed
Definitely a US thing. In every french conf I go, PC are a majority. In the french PyCon where I regularly give talks, Linux PC always are.

The diversity is even a problem in workshops because everybody has a different config and you get weirds errors due to this or that combo.

But yeah, you will see stickers. Lots of them.
Just moved from Linux to Windows at work.

It's not WSL I find myself using to have a good shell experience. It's MinGW/mintty. I even got a plugin to wrap it around WSL, since the Windows console experience is pretty painful. I miss my middle-click pasting and nice color schemes.

I just wish I could setup the path translations in PyCharm to use the same mapping. Things work, (and not too bad) but I just hate having to rewrite all of the paths in my environmental variables.

My other gripe is with the Cisco VPN client running all internet traffic through it, rather than having OpenConnect sort it out ahead of time.... but that's not really a Windows issue.

Referencing my earlier comment [0]. Caplan never says that the arts a waste of time. Refutes your view [1], main points are that this is an idealistic view; that enrichment requires willful participants which many if not most students are not, enthusiastic teachers, and good material.

There's a reason that there's not much societal interest in many humanities topics covered in college outside of it. It's just apathy.
