Good opportunity to voice my displeasure about the update notifications! Sorry, IT SUCKS!

It is really annoying that Firefox forces me to read about complex policy settings to avoid this. I have reasons not being able to update on a certain computer at certain times. (Already blocked the update checks, `# prevent Firefox update checks

Doctor: Here's a drug that may improve your intelligence but it's relatively untested and since we don't have a good understanding of the nature of human intelligence or how it interacts with other personal characteristics or society as a whole we have no idea what the actual outcome will be for you.

Me: Don't care. Hit me.

Takes pill.

Me: Old me was stupid to make that decision. However I cannot regret his passing despite the acute melancholia that is now the cornerstone of my existence.
You should read the Basic Laws of Human Stupidity, which concludes in the fifth law that a stupid person is the most dangerous: http://harmful.cat-v.org/people/basic-laws-of-human-stupidit...

However, while we can debate whether giving the drug to politicians would be a good idea, giving it to voters seems to have fewer downsides.
I don't believe you're correct. As my 2nd & 4th graders' teachers tell them, they need to learn a set of level-appropriate "math facts" ... but they're not forced to start by memorizing those facts (my son, for example, has a printed multiplication table up to 15x15 to reference while practicing decomposition of 3 & 4 digit multiplication problems). I truly appreciate the Common Core principle of focusing on teaching methods over facts, and -- at least in my children -- it is apparent that it sets them up for problem solving success IRL. YMMV. It's not a perfect curriculum and is still tailored to the lowest common denominator student, but I do think there's value there. And again, in a classroom with a strong teacher who can take time for differentiated instruction, there are ample opportunities for advanced students to go beyond or to practice their learned skills by helping their classmates.

That said, I think your statement is absolutely incorrect in the context of higher math (and experimental science). The more facts you know -- whether literal facts, axioms, proofs, applied example or theories -- the more facile problem solving will be. This holds true in all disciplines (and not just math & hard sciences, but also engineering, social sciences & business).
A prism, probably.
I got into these type of puzzles with Picross DS (on the Nintendo DS). I also recommend: https://www.hanjie-star.com/

I think the subparent meant the developer experience - this counts as playing as well.
Most of the water still moves down stream. You only pump upstream while the sun is out _and_ you have spare capacity from solar. Essentially you use the reservoir on the top of the dam as a battery. You charge it up when you have extra energy capacity.
It was necessary to test the rocket with a payload. The usual test payload is a concrete block or something comparable. They wanted to do something more fun. The major debris problem is all the stuff we have put in orbit around Earth, not stuff farther out.

If I've researched this correctly, I believe that "Nikoli puzzles" are not a formal class of puzzles; rather the terms refers specifically to the publisher of these puzzles [1]. KenKen, on the other hand, was invented and trademarked separately by Tetsuya Miyamoto [2].

That being said, KenKen does seem to fall into a similar class of constraint-based, language-agnostic games.

OKRs were always waved around as some magic secret sauce that's going to revolutionize the free puppy distribution market. In practice they ended up just being another reason why directors would bother us about the "error burn rate" of services that only have errors when the upstream services they rely on are having issues; with no way to programmatically remove that from the "error burn rate". I hope this helped management discover how much the systems of that job all rely on eachother.
Thanks for the feedback.

Great that you learned something. The CRDT papers don't explain the join-semilattice that much, it's only mentioned briefly, even though it's important in order to understand the theory behind CRDTs.
I also use notes and reminders. They're simple and reliable and I can easily add reminders via Siri. I've tried OneNote, Evernote, and I've paid for reminders apps but they're all unnecessarily complicated for my needs. I found myself spending too much time trying to figure out how to use the third party apps most effectively and fiddling with configuration. Finally realized that simpler is better for my needs.
Well in that case losing Google Reader was all worth it.
New Quartz 2.3.1 Released
Thanks for pointing this out, thought I was going crazy. So the article's explanation of why violet and purple look similar even though they are completely unrelated in spectrum is bogus (the article claims it's due to this secondary peak in the red cone). So what's the real reason?
>The US dropped nuclear bombs on populated areas during WW2. Should it not try to stop countries that may want to drop such bombs in 2019?

It's tone deaf for nations that already have nuclear protection to tell other countries not to develop the capability. It's like Bloomberg or Fienstien, or some other politician who lives somewhere safe and has a security detail telling a town hall meeting in the 48205 (a zipcode in Detroit that would make a lot of people here uncomfortable) that they'd all be safer if they turned in their guns.
Because the government never asked permission?

Yes, destruction of government property is a crime, but widespread deployment of surveillance dragnet is a far more clear and present danger to everyone.

It's one of those rare cases through which the government, by doing something, has made the place less "safe" for what? A bit of security? Boulderdash! If anything it's yet another test case on how far total public space information dominance can be pushed. It's a social engineering ploy that needed to stay in the pages of a book of speculative fiction.

Actually, they can. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tram-train
So essentially Google's constant stream of new products leads to older ones falling by the wayside unless they can make very large piles of cash.

It's also worth highlighting this:

> Google rarely does anything as a singular company. Instead, the industry giant is made up of autonomous product groups that develop and launch things on their own schedule.
I find amusing that ‘defragmented with no clear winner’ is what I want in most cases as a customer and what most startups see as an ‘opportunity for disruption’ (read “opportunity to dominate the market”).

>However, the real brilliance of Evernote was its search functionality

I'm surprised this is supposed to be a selling point. Search has rarely found what I am looking for and I almost always have to go hunt for the note I am looking for manually. I've even been known to export all my notes as plain text files and use an external program (even the OS!) to search for something I'm looking for.

Frankly I've had so many many problems with Evernote. The synching is terrible. I can't tell you how many times I've been working on a lengthy note when it will try to synch and have a problem and it will trash everything I've written since the last synch and revert the note back to what it was before. This has happened to me so many times that I've started to write my notes in other apps and then copy and paste the text to Evernote when I am finished.

I've tried other note taking apps, but they all have problems of one sort of another. My ideal note app would have the following features:

* The ability to export all of the notes with the click of one button to plain text Markup files. Ideally any folder structure within the note app would be maintained and the notes would be zipped up and could be either saved locally or emailed to me. I have seen so many cloud services go up in flames suddenly that I have less than zero trust in cloud services. I want my data to be available in a format that I could easily move it to another service and I can back it up locally. Evernote doesn't really do this. This is the primary reason I only trust it for notes that I don't really care about. Anything really important I keep in other note apps that do let me easily export the notes. Unfortunately those other apps have other downsides that keep my coming back to Evernote.

* The note app can store notes of just about any size. I have some really really long notes that I don't want divided up among multiple notes. Evernotes doesn't appear to have a note size limit, I've found that most other note apps do have a limit that is far less than the length many of my notes already are.

* I want seamless and automatic synching across platforms. It needs to work well and not lose any of what I have typed (Evernote fails in this regard). I shouldn't have a ton of duplicate versions of my note with timestamps because the synching has gotten all out of wack (Evernote does this a lot).

* It should be easy to create a new note. This is basically Evernote's number one benefit from what I've experienced.

* It should be easy to create links between notes like a personal wiki. I have one (unfortunately no longer being developed) note taking app that excels at this. So far I haven't found how/if this is possible in Evernote. It's certainly not easily discoverable if it is possible.

* It should use Markup as the underlying formatting engine. This goes back to the first point about being able to export the notes in a non-propietary format.
Not just artists. This is relevant for probably anyone with multiple successful side projects.

Finding stuff at the intersection of the set of things fun to make and the things other people will enjoy is the hardest part of deciding what project to work on. It's a skill. You need to have a lot of ideas to find one landing in this sliver.
not really. as a citizen of somewhere you'll always be subject to laws. dark web could help people evade the law a little longer but won't make it legal, as such law abiding citizen will not want to have themselves associated with it for the fear of repercussions down the road.

the only long term solution is to change the laws, not to work around them, but we don't have the economic power to balance the lobbies anymore.
Wow, that was a really pretty song. Thanks for sharing it.

Someday humanity will look back on this as a dark, barbaric age, thinking that ideas and sounds can be owned.
Does anyone have a solution for notes that include equations? I don’t want to spend the time on LaTeX for simple math notes for myself. Something that I could just type in “sum” and a summation sign would appear?
In hardware, the design alone may be worth next to nothing. The ability to produce something at volume with a constant quality often depends on knowledge, experience, tooling or other resources that are not present in any design documentation. Sometimes, it is not even possible to replicate these things.

The best solution is the obvious one - if proven safe and effective mass produce it and make it cheap enough for everyone. Drug production is usually expensive to set up but cheap to run - especially with biosimilars. It is also a hormone too which should mean non-patentable in itself.

Any government not bleeding stupid should subsidize it heavily or make it themselves for the economic gains.
Half a mile walk is not what I'd calling reaching. You can't even see Penn from the light-rail stop.
During my short experience with hardware design at the university I never had the chance of using Verilog. Are there advantages in using it instead of VHDL?
How is the OCR in OneNote now? One of the features keeping me on Evernote is being able to take a photo of a whiteboard and put it in Evernote which then does a surprisingly good job of recognizing the text and making the photo searchable.
This has happened to me as well. Not just entire notes, but even while I am typing it will have a synching hickup and delete everything I have written and rollback to the previous synching state. It is really really bad at synching.
You can make as many legal excuses like that as you can afford to stall about in court.

Walmart has more lawyers than you.
A variety of both direct and indirect things. Low interest rates for home purchases, especially veterans (GI Bill). Road construction especially the interstate highway system. Low-cost suburban development, e.g. Levittown. The fact that there was lots of land to build suburbs on.
I agree it is quite difficult to explain these concepts in simple terms. I spent a lot of time reading academic papers, as well as reading blog posts in order to grasp these concepts.

Good luck with your articles, where can I read them once you have published them?

The article doesn't give any indication that this process will be transparent or how they intend to classify things as "true, false, misleading or disputed".

I guess it's a new thing and is probably still being tested/evaluated. But so far what I've seen is social platforms "self policing", with little or no input from official regulation entities (i.e. controlled by democratically elected government).

Even though I know I'm a cynic by nature, I try hard but just can't see how private organisations deciding what is fact or not can be better than fake news.
I've noticed rich people in poor countries are very aware of what is not becoming of them. They were probably waiting for some poor person to come work for a few dollars a day to come do the jobs beneath them.

I've seen it with the wife's family (middle class South American). They are used to my strange ways now, but they were shocked when they saw me washing the car, doing the gardening, tidying the yard, "why are you doing that, you have money, just pay someone".
As a child growing up in 1970s USA, I remember the vast amount of trash along our roads, city streets, parks and beaches. It was fairly common to see people throw trash out of their car windows.

What changed? I have never studied this, but I know we implemented large scale clean up projects, passed new laws and made a cultural shift in attitudes.
It's an old and tired adage by this point but it seems it falls to me to be the "time spent doing something you enjoy is never wasted" guy this time around.
That is only true in the HN bubble of SV. No one would bat an eye at someone only making $150K in almost any major city in the US outside of the west coast and NYC.
https://www.frbatlanta.org/chcs/wage-growth-tracker.aspx

Wages are rising, at least nominally, of course. I know they the wage and wealth gap is increasing, and the top 10% are running away with almost all the spoils, and is not a good situation.

However, the context of my response was to the person you had responded to had said that Instacart would have to pay more if people stopped running food for them, to which you had responded that Instacart wouldn't since there was an endless supply of hopelessly desperate people that Instacart can pull from.

Getting from point A to point B, especially with the help of navigation software, is something everyone can do, hence the bottom of the barrel wages. You're competing with almost everyone. Expecting to earn more than the very minimum in that kind of market is unrealistic. Before, the bottom of the barrel jobs were retail/restaurant/hotel/service jobs, but now with Instacart and Uber and whatnot, those are the new bottom of the barrel jobs, and retail/restaurant/hotel/service jobs have had to raise their wages.

I understand some people might not have a good education, some might not know the right language, have a stable home, and that is something society needs to work at fixing, but that's not the reason Uber/Instacart can afford to pay little. It's because the type of work (unscheduled, be your own boss, no language skills necessary, no customer service skills, etc) is desirable compared to other jobs that have a large supply of labor.

Super good. I suggest you try the freah Alaskan Slalom.
I believe what was being referred to is the legal standpoint.

The paid journals are an absurdity, but there is only one right course of action: Not using them. Submit no content, pay no subscriptions. Let them whither and die. With more and more universities joining in on open access, this should become easier and easier.

However, they still legally hold the rights to what they have, and thus releasing their content in public is still illegal. You'd have to get the original authors to legally release it elsewhere, which they might not even have the rights to.

Killing them by stealing the content which they legally yet immorally sell and have the rights to is neither just nor impressive, and gives them a chance to cry "Foul!". Do not give them that chance.

I'd recommend not simply uncritically believing everything you read. As far as I can tell this is a complete fiction invented by a dodgy French psychoanalyst to spice up his me-too biography of Mitterrand. French support for us during the conflict was immediate, extensive and un-stinting, far beyond what you could coerce with such a transparently ridiculous threat.

Furthermore the account in his book doesn't even match the actual sequence of events. French co-operation with us began immediately, not after the destruction of the Sheffield many months into the conflict. Furthermore missiles like the Exocet don't have 'codes' you can use to remotely disable them. Why would they? There's also no evidence the UK ever had or used anything like that. The whole thing is poppycock from start to finish.
