You can have the subjective experience of seeing something without the objective photons that usually cause the experience, at your discretion.
Yes, this is part of it (although I do include things like core.async, reducers/transducers etc in that). A lot of Clojure feels like a bunch of thesis projects tacked together and abandoned. Most of it was quite innovative and cool at the time, but it's not being iterated or elaborated on. That's nobody's problem, really, I just happen to find it frustrating.

I'd almost be encouraged by the rework going into spec if it wasn't happening at such a glacial pace.
I see the new Subaru's have this feature where they seem to track your eyes and alert you if you're looking down at your lap. I think that could be a possible solution, it needs to be in the vehicle since the vehicle is the thing causing the damage, not the mobile device.

I don't like Apple's method: When it senses you moving (which gets triggered for false positives as mentioned), it locks your phone unless you press the big button that says "I'm not driving.". Let's be real, if you're going after the people who actively text and whatever while driving, a single button press is not a real barrier to entry.

No I'm not Venezuelan, but I have talked with many and when I ask them if the situation is as bad as TV says they tell me is even worse; there isn't a single day I don't cross paths with a homeless Venezuelan asking for money here in Colombia.

I wonder what Yahoo would look like now if Jerry had accepted the Microsoft acquisition. Yahoo was already in troubled waters at the time, in hindsight it looks like a missed opportunity.
If you purchase Google production support, with credits or otherwise, it's available 24/7 and not tied to a single "contact person". In addition, billing support (which includes things like being suspended for fraud or abuse) is free, available to all and also 24/7. All these channels are responded to by real live humans who can see what "the algorithm" did and why, and overrule it if need.

Disclaimer: I work at GCP and used to work in support.
I guess you didn't get my point. You can subscribe to multiple independent ISPs in one house. You don't get that while renting a server in a datacenter.
>I'm a cyclist. Over the past 5 years or so I've learned to check inside of people's cars to see if they have a phone in their hands. If they do, I try to keep as much distance between myself and them as possible.

I guess this is something a self driving car should also keep in mind. Next we have to click on tiles with people using phones before login.
What I don’t get is what is so important that requires “checking” every 5 minutes? Are we all business executives now, executing million dollar deals? Or day trading stocks? What’s so urgent?

I run my phone in Do Not Disturb mode 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No notifications. No texts. No calls. No E-mails. I’ll check these things at night sometime when I’m not doing other things like driving a 2000 pound steel death machine on the interstate.

I don't really have anything to add here but I just wanted to say I appreciate your tact and attitude.

Especially online, it's very easy to just assume bad faith when responding to something like that, but I think the internet would be a much better place if people were more likely to keep cool and stay civil even in the face of comments which they suspect to be in bad faith.
Nice move. GCP is years behind the other clouds in offering common managed services so this seems like a great way to catch up quickly, while allowing the vendors to control their own service.

I'm always surprised at how many of these vendors don't have any cloud offering of their own, or have very limited versions.
> It's the same thing here.

I disagree completely.
So in the case of copyrighted laws in OP's scenario: The government passes laws (creating the text) and then someone or some company buys the rights to the text of the laws. Then the government (who created the text in the first place) pays the person who paid them to be able to display the text on a website?

And you can't see why I would question such a situation?

>>> Propositions are in the same category as sentences, as far as their dependency on representation is concerned.
>> What evidence do you have of this being the case?
> Well, the thought experiment that followed?

The thought experiment was scientific evidence?

> My point is not that the content of the concept depends on how it is represented, but that the existence of the concept depends on the concept being represented.

Ah, well I am referring to the proposition as the content of the concept, and the content of the concept as not being dependent on its representation conceptually or syntactically. How something is conceptualized in the mind is not of current concern for my position.

> You mean you could evaluate "1 < 2" to "true" using the Peano axioms ... without representing the Peano axioms anywhere? Doing an immaterial computation? I am not sure I have any concept of what you are trying to construct here.

No, 'you' and 'evaluate/compute' is not in the picture. I can do an evaluation, and that would require representation, but my evaluation is to find that it is true, not to make it true. I agree that immaterial computation is not possible, but computation is not what is being discussed. Do you think that the statement "'1 < 2' is true under the Peano axioms" is dependent on something material?

> It's kinda unfortunate that you used "exist" in defining "objective reality", which was supposed to define "exist" ... ?!

Well its not my definition. Is there a definition that satisfies you that I could consider co-opting?

> ... "exist" is a pretty ambiguous word ...

Hmmm, interesting. I hadn't thought that it might be ambiguous. Why do you think it's ambiguous?

> ... to make sure we aren't running into any equivocation where ["exists" is] used with two different meanings in different places in the argument.

Well, if it is any consolation, you may note that I use "exists" in only one phrase that is used three times: "The potential for the universe being in a different state actually exists".

>> B) The universe can change states.

> I see quite a few potential flaws in that whole argument, but I think I'll start with this one:

> How do you know that, if not as a result of the scientific observation of the physical process of the universe changing states? Or am I misunderstanding your claim here?

That "the universe can change states" is known by observation.

>> Right/Good behavior is an act which is in accordance with what God wills.

>> Wrong/Bad behavior is and act which is not in accordance with what God wills.

> OK ... so, under that definition(!!!): Why should I, or anyone, care about morality?

Define "should".
Sheryl Sandberg described a similarly thorough weighing of her decision to join Google.

Mayer: "I had a long analytical evening with a friend of mine where we looked at all the job offers I had received. We created a giant matrix with one row per job offer and one column per value. We compared everything from the basics like cash and stock to where I'd be living, happiness factor, and trajectory factor—all of these different elements. And so we went to work analyzing this problem."

Sandberg: "After a while I had a few offers and I had to make a decision, so what did I do? I am MBA trained, so I made a spreadsheet. I listed my jobs in the columns and my criteria in the rows, and compared the companies and the missions and the roles."

It's a fun bit of trivia that Sandberg put the criteria in the rows, which enables sorting the criteria - a nice way to see the upsides and downsides of each choice.
> What they really need to do is get rid of the high friction signup process for new channels. Why should I have to go to an external website when Roku should have all the identifying information third parties would need?

Are you referring to the friction of inputting the code on the service provider's website? If so, I think that is a much better solution than having to input the password generated by my password manager.

Even if Roku wanted to serve as some form of identity provider, you'd still have to go through some small bit of friction to associate your Roku account with the service provider. Given that we are talking about security and access to saved credit cards in some cases, I think a small amount of friction is warranted. The short codes are an excellent balance of convenience and friction.
Check out the court's order: https://papersplease.org/gilmore/_dl/GilmoreDismissal.pdf (at the time it was Gilmore v. Ashcroft). The important part is buried: "As a corollary, without having been provided a copy of this unpublished statute or regulation, if it exists, the Court is unable to conduct any meaningful inquiry as to the merits of plaintiff's vaguenesa srgument". I was in court for the hearing; the government declined to provide any law or regulation requiring showing of ID yet asserted that showing of ID was required; the judge said (in the section I quoted) that as she couldn't see any law she couldn't make a judgement.

Most of the order is dismissal of the other claims on jurisdictional grounds and the appellate court (which by statute is primary, not appellate in this case) declined to take the case. As it is primary, this seems strange to me.
That isn't my experience at all in a glass plant in the midwest. If you were a run of the mill laborer on the floor, you had a station and you worked your 8/12/16 hour shift right there the entire time. I stood at the end of a long cooling belt inspecting glass for QA defects, piece by miserable piece until I was able to clock out.

edit/ Also, throwing boxes for delivery companies or warehouses, you'll be standing at the end of your belt filling up trucks for the entire duration of your 8/12/16 hour shift.
This looks really nice, both because it covers Git in a new way, and that it approaches solving a large problem with an eye towards explaining how to do it. It really reminds me of Donald Knuth's work on literate programming, in both senses.
The phrase you’re quoting is incredibly misleading, you’ve intentionally left out a number of other options they listed:

— technical roles

— small-businesses

— liberal arts

— or whatever it is they want

Misrepresenting what they said is in incredibly bad-faith, please don’t do this, it’s very disrupting to dialogue.

Sweden is, or used to be, sort of like that. Sweden has high wealth inequality and more billionaires per capita than many other countries. But the whole thing is probably imploding now anyway.

I think people misunderstand a bit. It isn't wealth that is the problem as such. It is that wealth is a symptom of inequality. If you for example have good accessible schools for much of the population where having a privileged background doesn't matter much then naturally it will be relatively hard to get rich because there is so much competition.

It's possible to go from composition to focused in the span of time it takes to move the hand (and eyes) from the phone back to driving mode.

It isn't possible to become 'not drunk' that quickly.

I rank drunk driving as worse than dealing with screaming kids as worse than writing something at a red-light as worse than just reading a preview on the screen for a measured quantity of time when in a situation that is safe enough to mentally relax and not be at 100% focus is at-hand.
just a couple examples:

the default service account is a project editor, which is insanely over-privileged, yet everything tries to use it, and all the demos. Appengine only supports one service account for all apps, even if you have multiple apps, also Editor. similar things in gke.

Their pre-defined roles are a mess, and not consistent across services. Theres a role called 'dataflow admin' defined as the 'minimal permissions to run a job' which isn't what id call admin.

So if you try to use custom roles instead, cause the predefined roles are crazy, they will make breaking changes to permissions(literally did this last week with no notice).

Support access doesnt use IAM and only supports users, not groups, and no api - you have to go to a web form and add each user individually. good luck if you have more than a couple users, and have fun trying to keep that in sync.

The fact that its tied to gsuite is a problem as well, a gsuite admin is also a gcp admin, which is generally owned by different orgs(IT vs dev).

it seems like every month we have a new breaking change, or price change(maps is biting us constantly for some reason)

ultimately what it comes down to is weve been burned enough that we dont trust google

The academic job market was very different in 2006 than even a couple of years later. With the downturn came a flood of people staying on for grad school instead of looking for jobs - and with them came a flood of free labor for the universities.

The problem with racism is that it works - populations that act preferentially towards their own have an advantage over those that do not: http://jasss.soc.surrey.ac.uk/16/3/7.html.bak
No, you mischaracterized the scenario. It's more like, a professional association writes their definition of how to build something while being "sure enough" that it won't flood, collapse, electrocute you etc. The government says, "oh, yeah, sounds right. Everyone has to do it that way." And then pays that group royalties whenever someone wants to check that they're in compliance.

That's no different from any other copyright situation, in terms of producing something of value and having to be paid for each copy, except that the government has propped up demand by making it the law and absorbing the royalty cost.
No, I developed a platform that converts code formatted from TinyMCE into a PNG which is then an exercise for students. Students in turn retype out the program. The activity requires zero high level thinking, but presents a worked example of a CS concept. Since novices struggle initially with syntax errors, the exercise serves as a scaffolded process of practicing typing syntax without also trying to problem solve [1]. The hope and thought process is that the exercises get students comfortable with writing syntax without problem-solving so that when they DO problem-solve, they can rely on muscle memory.

The platform is currently deployed at NC State as an optional exercise for some of the classes and while there is no explicit "those students did better" (yet I hope...), I do have promising information like regular completers earn high final grades in the course and even potentially as an intervention tool for lower performing students. In that context, students that regularly performed lower on midterms scored higher on the final and earned a higher final grade than students that just "looked at the exercises" (it is optional). My current hypothesis on that data is that poor performing exercise completer's realized they needed additional practice, which helped boost their skills.

My comment history goes in better detail, but I describe it akin to drilling in other technical skills like cooking, music, dance, martial arts, etc.

I think this as an activity is one of the methods that causes much of the "prior experience" seen in some higher performing CS students. They learned about syntax errors and tweaking code while making these BASIC games, or in modern contexts like modding Minecraft.

Moving forward, my research then goes into optimal exercise sequencing for learning CS. If you are compiling more syntax errors during a traditional coding exercise, maybe do a few typing exercises or output prediction exercises before trying to code.

I'm genuinely curious, can you draw pictures?

What about flow diagrams on a white board? And what about coding? My coding process involves a somewhat visual process of imagining how functions connect to eachother. Is it just a logical or linguistic (like uh, using word tokens) process for you?
I'd say it's a feedback process, not an iterative one.

"Psychologists now recognize three basic types of visual thinkers. To determine what kind of visual thinker you are try imagining a triangle. Do whatever it takes to image that shape in your mind, How did you do it?

Some people cannot "see" a triangle in their minds until they draw it on a piece of paper or trace its outline on a table with the and of their finger.

Some people need to close their eyes, apparently because seeing interferes with their visual imagination. When their eyes are closed, however, they can "project" the triangle on the inside of their eyelids. Did your eyeballs move as you drew the triangle?

Some rare individuals can bring up the image of the triangle with their eyes open, superimposing the triangle on whatever they are looking at. A subset of this latter group can make the triangle change size, color, and perspective; they can make it twirl, jump, and pass through other figures. Steinmetz and Tesla clearly fell into this last category."

Elmer Sperry was notoriously good at mental visualization, to the point that he could supposedly just draw the projected outline of his mental images onto paper.

A lot of figurative art in previous centuries was also based on drawing bodies from memory. I think you can infer that some painters could really conjure an image (the configuration of a body) in their mind before drawing it, just like Sperry. But the feedback loop approach is equally valid!

I've been around the block enough times to know homophobia when I see it, thanks. I've been dealing with it for a long time, and I'm more than happy to put homophobes in a bucket.

The poster's homophobia was blatantly obvious, down to the verbatim jabs I always hear. Being upset that there are too many gay characters on tv and they are "shoving an agenda our throats" is homophobic by definition. It is 100% undisguised homophobia, without even the decorum of a dog whistle. If you can't see that, you are either unbelievably naive or are actually a homophobe who is trolling by being willfully obtuse. My money is on the latter.

It needs to be called out, not coddled. Asserting equal rights is not something that is ever done with politeness.

At any rate, I am quite sick of folks like you claiming that I should be careful not to offend people who say things like "pushing it down our throats" in reference to the existence of gay characters. I will never apologize for asserting my equality and speaking out against bigotry. I don't care if I make a bigot feel bad.

Straight white males have society's permission to become apoplectically angry about black football players kneeling. If they can do that, I should be able to call out bigots without enablers like you trying to defend them.

Your post was just idiotic. Think next time before you defend a homophobe. You are part of the problem. Be better. Next time you see bigotry, confront the bigot, not the folks calling it out.
