Paper cups for take-out coffee are pretty big in Germany, I can tell you. I used to use them pretty often and sometimes still do when I don't have my reusable plastic cup with me.
Then they'll benefit for a few years. Having low prices for 3 years is better than having low prices for 0 years.
I use this site. It isn't always accurate but it gives me a starting point: www.justwatch.com
Where the hell are you from "as a European"? In Germany you can get a take-out almost anywhere they sell coffee. Vending machines are ubiquitous. It's not just for "Americans".

Having a coffee takes more than three minutes, especially if it's still hot. People don't necessarily have that kind of time in the morning. Or maybe they prefer to drink their coffee at a different place than where they purchased it.
It's worse even than that. We have to choose to stop doing things we are already doing, on a massive scale, from which we derive enormous benefits. That's really tough, it's like getting a junkie off the hard stuff in the middle of a really bad bender. Except the benefits we get from abusing oil and coal and plastics aren't illusory, they provide livelihoods to huge swathes of the world's population.

This is where Thunberg's analysis comes short. The benefits from abusing resources don't just go to a tiny few. They go to all of us. We travel around in fossil fueled vehicles, the food and goods we consume travel and are farmed the same way, we fly on holiday in fossil fueled jets, we use cheap electricity from non-renewable sources. Rapidly switching away from these will carry enormous costs, just look at the energy market in Germany that's essentially being bailed out by French Nuclear power, and really wasn't even possible decades ago.

If it really was just a small minority getting all the benefits, fixing this would be politically easy. We do need to act yes, it's a real problem with dire consequences, but it's not a simple issue.

All those were set in the 50s, the boomers were born after the war in 1945 at the earliest (this one is fairly well delineated, compared to the other generations). So that's a previous generation.
Many under-sink filtration systems last at least 10,000 gallons. They take 5 minutes max to replace.

Are you saying that 5 minute task every few years is more work then manually lugging 10,000 gallons of water through say, 10,000 separate containers, carrying each one, opening them manually each time, tipping and pouring them, then discarding them? (that's the weight of about 25 cars)

Not to be rude but I don't believe you.

My experience living in Dallas, Texas, which has some 1500 miles of accurate weather data as systems come across the north american continent from west to east.... usually the 10 day weather forecast was accurate to within 4 hours. This is really helpful for planning sailing trips, etc. Usually three days out the weather prediction is accurate to within 30 minutes.

As for the California SF Bay area, weather prediction is mostly useless, day to day weather prediction is wildly inaccurate. I think just on Friday there was a prediction that we were going to have a bunch of fog through Tuesday, and it was clear the next day. Wild storms will be predicted, and then never appear, and other times weather that was going to hit Oregon smashes in to the bay for three days. Many times we've gone out sailing expecting calm forecasted weather (Mother's Day 2016) and got 25mph winds and other times we went out expecting forecasted 15mph winds and it was closer to 6-8mph.

My guess is that the lack of HD weather radar in the pacific and the complex topology of the coastal areas and the bay, and also the chaotic interaction between ocean and inland weather systems make for a much more challenging forecasting system than doing forecasting of the plains states. The unique geography of the golden gate being a venturi tube between the low pressure 55F/13C pacific ocean marine layer and the high pressure 95F/35c central valley some forty miles inland creates what the local slang describes as "the wind machine".
You create the docker image on your local computer, create checksum and write it down / remember it. Then you just use this checksum when downloading the image from other computers to check it's the same one. This only works for images created and uploaded by you of course, for images created by other people it does not work.

I keep suggesting that laws should have "acceptance tests" in the form of a stated intent in a form that must be possible to invalidate if the premises are wrong. You'd need a mechanism to challenge laws both on the basis that the intent is not met and on the basis that the stated intent is too unclear.

My attitude is, do everything I can and take personal responsibility for everything I do. If in 50 years we've reached the tipping point, at least I won't be filled with regret of things I could have done differently. Blaming corporations for problems just adds another voice to the crowd, whereas lifestyle changes can help - if only minutely.

1. Diet - been vegan since reading the catastrophic effects animals agriculture has on the environment. Currently 2 years in and feel healthy as an ox.

2. Transport - run everywhere, cycle if necessary, drive and fly almost never.

3. Consumerism - live minimalist to a point where I'm happy and fulfilled enough to live happy, but not living as a pauper. Being happy allows me to work more efficiently, so it's a cost-benefit thing.

4. Investment - use the money saved from said minimalism to invest in carbon positive businesses and charities. Turns out that when you stop spending money on things and live on rice and beans, money starts coming out of your ears.

5. Career - currently in the process of transitioning from a career in the aviation industry, to one in the renewable energy industry. I'll take a pay cut, but at least my skills can be put to better use. So yes, you can impact the energy industry directly. Provide talent, research better alternatives to fossil fuels, try to become an industry leader and change that industry.

In my eyes, saying there is nothing you can do is a cop-out. There is always something you can do. When people say there's nothing they can do, what they really should say is 'it will be exceedingly difficult to put into action the things I want to change'.

My philosophy is, if everything fails it's utterly my fault and no one else's - but, it's alright to fail and I likely will multiple times. The only thing I can change is myself and my actions.
Any time I am talking to younger entrepreneurs about ideas they have that already exist in some fashion I give them a simple analogy to ponder over: Rice!

I tell them to take a look at the rice isle in the supermarket and ask themselves "why are there so many varieties of rice?"... it's rice for goodness sake! How can one be different to another?

How can there possibly be a need for hundreds of different types of rice.

Even if you just pick one type, like white rice, there are multiple brands competing with something as simple as rice.

Every item on a supermarket shelf has earned the right to be there because people are buying it for different reasons.

Everyone is different: Some people only buy Uncle Ben's rice at 4 times the price of the supermarket rice and others only touch the unbranded value rice.

It's all marketing.

So if your idea already exists then it means there is probably a demand and you just need to find your angle and market it appropriately.

In the US, very little if anything. Overseas, it depends greatly. I tried to use Amazon Prime in Norway, and it's a mess. The user can see all the titles, but can only play a fraction of them. I even got shafted after purchasing a movie because it wasn't available to stream to my location (this was on console so bypassing with a vpn wasn't a 1-click thing like on PC, that is if amazon hasn't blacklisted most major vpn providers to begin with)

tl;dr - doesn't work that well, depending on where you live. I've become reacquainted with torrent sites these last few years.

If you would like a heartwarming tale of an engineers first compiler, this is the article for you.

There is either nothing to learn here, or a spectacular insight into compilation, depending on where you are in your career.

Compilers are fun. It’s an invaluable experience having written one. There is no magic left in a computer once you’ve written a compiler.

If you have written a compiler, this article is amusing. You get to see a programmers eyes open.

If you have not written a compiler, you get some insight about how they work- but perhaps you get more insight about how you work.

Also, the author should constant fold his arithmetic example. It slows down compile time, but makes the program faster.

Is his acting like your boss hindering your work? Does he come between you and tasks to be done or somehow take credit for your work, at the same time diminishing you or reporting your work as bad when it is not?

If it is only the kind of hierarchical conflict that rise in day to day conversation and doesn't actually interfere with work, you should give it little attention. Stand your ground with arguments and reason, and if some fails that means he was right in the first place to criticise and you can use the opportunity to be a better professional.

But if he is actively hindering you unfairly you have to do something about it smartly. Can't really advise as to what specifically, but talking to other people, finding other coworkers with the same problem is a good start. And also maintaining good relations with his superiors is a nice idea too. Because if this is the case it is likely he is doing this to other people or other coworkers will notice this unfair relation.

In any case, harsh positions are good opportunities to be a better professional and grow in social skills, if you so choose to see this as an opportunity for self improvement.

Unfortunately it's not that uncommon, it happened to me before. The problem becomes worse when the people around (bosses, etc) have no technical knowledge whatsoever, and rely only on job titles to decide who should be in charge of what, and who to trust.

> $1M per year, is too small to draw anyone's attention.

I'll take this opportunity to tell a long-winded story about how that number can be two orders of magnitude larger, and still be too small.

I was with Slide when Google bought us in 2010. They bungled the acquisition (bought us to work on Google+, which had already made a bunch of disagreeable decisions by the time we were ready to rumble), so we were left to our own devices for a year, in which time about 12 of us made something called Photovine, a photo sharing app that would have competed with Instagram, and we were getting pretty universally positive press. I think TechCrunch called it the best mobile app google had ever produced, and all of our beta and early release engagement numbers were bananas.

(We also had loads of fun with it — the core sharing mechanic was organized around shared captions that we called vines, and we spent most of our play-testing time swapping visual puns.)

Anyway, if you project our trajectory generously, which didn't seem out of the question given our early traction, we would have wound up competing with Insta, doing business in the hundreds of millions. But Larry, in all his "more wood behind fewer arrows" wisdom, decided to axe the project, as he did many, many others, and re-assign all of us to YouTube, which, granted, was gearing up to compete with TV, and needed more staff.
I also noted the Orwellian tone. We live in troubling times when the value of tinkering is lost to the tinkerers themselves.
In my experience, such types act as gatekeeper and can effectively prevent you from getting anything done.

> The signatures were likely added to the inside mould by engraving or CNC cutting them at the same time the texture was added to the outside mould.

I'm also guessing that given the detail of each signature, this would have been digitally handled in RS-274 or a plotter language? The level of detail is so spot on that it's tempting to overlook the circa 1980s timeframe and what consumer manufacturing could do cost-effectively back in the day.

Another observation is that none of the signatures overlap with the internal support ribs...almost as if the image was transferred in sections. I wonder if the original design team signed a silhouette of the rib pattern, or if the signatures were post-processed to eliminate collisions.

same thing here. Today he asked me 'explain this logic' (It was a simple timeout logic for angularjs, pretty obvious if you can google the keyword) but he was literally stuck on it for hours and then asked me to come and explain this logic and what is it doing. He had to add a check around it to make it work for specific function, it's not like I don't like him or anything like that, I like him as a colleague but I am a bit hesitant to work with him because I think he is not very competent and when he do not understands anything, he will simply complain to my manager that its my fault and my manager, being his friend, will listen to him.

This notion that the world, or humanity at large, might be fallen from some earlier "perfect" state is of course found all over the place in the history of thought. By way of example, a description of the Golden Age, or the age of Truth, from the Mahabharata:

> Men neither bought nor sold; there were no poor and no rich; there was no need to labour, because all that men required was obtained by the power of will; the chief virtue was the abandonment of all worldly desires. The Krita Yuga was without disease; there was no lessening with the years; there was no hatred or vanity, or evil thought whatsoever; no sorrow, no fear. All mankind could attain to supreme blessedness.

(There might even be something to it, given how long human history from the emergence of behaviorally-modern humans (10,000 BC?) to the beginning of the historical record actually was. Who's to say that human societies in that time period did not gradually evolve to a sort of cultural- and value- "modernity", that was subsequently forgotten in some sort of great, worldwide social crisis? That might have been the true "Fall from Eden" perhaps, scattering human societies far and wide.)
In other industries it's done, and usually there's some regulation around it. It's possible that this would be added to our industry too, maybe via legislation or maybe the big giants all come together and decide on a format and guidelines on responsible post-mortems on data breaches and it's adopted by others. I think it can happen and I hope it does.

Could it be that it's you who doesn't know which way is up? You said it yourself: you're new to the job and the company, so your judgment being off is more likely than everyone else being in the wrong.

See if you can tell the story from your colleague's perspective. Perhaps it might go something like this: "There's this one junior employee who seems to speak as if he knows everything, but in fact his fundamentals are lacking, so all I can do is set them straight as quickly as I can."

If you value time over money, you could also use Uppy in conjunction with Transloadit, our company can handle uploading, encoding, and exporting to S3 for you, too.
