Norway is rich enough to afford EV cars and the better environment that goes with it.

Although there are people with infantile Top Gear attitudes towards petrol (gas) and the noises made by V8 naturally aspirated engines, these people choose not to live next to really busy roads. Funny that. They don't enjoy the filth and the noise that much.

Norway is just rich enough to afford quality air and silence. They are not slumming it. Chinese cities are going the same way, getting rich enough to get rid of the moto-scooters and motorbikes.

In ten years time we will have people go to places like America to come back and joke about 'how they still drive petrol cars' as if the place is backward. See also Romania and people who come back from rural Romania to jest about them still having horse and cart.
It's good for groups and families. I'd expect not all seats are arranged that way.
> They are often competitively priced with air travel,

Not in the US! I would love to travel by train whenever time permitted, but it is prohibitively expensive to travel by sleeper car.
I'm not disputing your numbers; I'm disputing your values. Some do not consider home ownership to be a good thing. Some believe there are worse things than living in poverty.
My wrists hurt badly when I was using the 2015 MBP. I was probably "holding it wrong", but still, putting a sharp edge there...
Quite the contrary, three Google employees that are very vocal against C++, and well known personalities, got fed up using it and created Go, eventually they got support from upper management.

Java and C++ still run most of Google.
I had actually set some money aside ahead of the WWDC, wanting to replace my iMac 5k with a Mac Pro, if such a thing was announced. So for the starting price of the "can" Mac Pro (2999), or somewhat above, I would have hit the trigger. But there is no way I can afford or justify the 5999 - and until you have a working system, there is so much more money to spend.
I think this is where a 'spike' solves your problem.

By creating a spike, you can do some initial investigation into how the code is written, what's involved, how long it will take, etc.

Once you have completed your spike, you can come back to the original piece of work and give a better estimate based on your findings.
I'm a little worried about the economic implications of something like this. Population shrinkage might lead to an economic collapse worse than any global warming problem. Government-funded sterilization also sounds like a political third rail. If it didn't take off, what would the next option be?

You can hide an awful lot of sins in county-level data. Census tract would be far more interesting.

Even from ESRI's map it's clear that affordability drops near cities: Chicago and its collar counties, Salt Lake-Provo in Utah, Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, latter mentioned in the OTM piece. Even cities such as Omaha are visible, and regions such as Appalachian North Carolina.
No it doesn't. Certain species may go extinct, but almost certainly not humans.

Our ape ancestors evolved in an environment where temperatures were far higher than today. In fact, we're in a cool phase, as far as the global climate is concerned.
From everything I understand, the design cycles for most Apple products run 18+ months, and given that the late 2016 MBPs were the first ones with the Touch Bar (sigh), the chances are it had an even longer design-to-ship cycle. By the time reports of keyboard failures were coming in around late 2015, the MBP design was almost certainly set in stone. Also, I suspect Apple spent a more than a year after that genuinely believing they could just tweak the keyboard to resolve the problems.
I wish I was more productive working from home. I mean, I am, in the sense that I get more chores done than I do when I work from the office, since I seem to procrastinate by doing anything but actual work related tasks.
I think we're in the opening chapter of something that will, over time, become comparable. I think you're downplaying the situation, the scuffles, China testing airspace and maritime laws, heavy investment in Africa, that's all from the soviet's playbook. I would be shocked if China didn't play a part in the Russian (successful) attempt to influence our elections and get poor leadership installed in the oval office.
I watched (on reuters) the police come in with tear gas and beat sticks and riot shields and beat/gas the entire crowd away, with a sign reading 'WARNING: TEAR GAS'. Even though the legislative chamber seemed relatively empty compared to the large crowd outside milling about and continuing the peaceful protest...
> The EU should force a carbon tax on plane fuel for intra-EU flights and subsidize rail with the money.

You are aware that most of Europe produces electricity by burning fossil fuel right? So by all logic we should apply a strict carbon tax on rail as well.
I really, really hate forced two-step authentication. It may be (somewhat) more secure but it doesn't work for everyone!

Email for details. We haven’t launched yet, we want to make sure the math, the ethics, and the approach are bulletproof before going public. With that said, I’m happy to privately discuss the model we’ve built.

There is a natural fertility rate decline you’re seeing around the world, we’re simply trying to tighten the feedback loop (while operating with as much transparency and ethical consideration possible).
Network Solutions also offers 20 year and 100 year terms. ICANN rules say 10 years is the max, so I'm not sure how this works. Does NS just deal with it 10 years at a time at the underlying registry, eating any price increases themselves?

20 years .org at NS is $13.99/year, which is close to the more reasonable registries, such as Namecheap. 100 years gets it to $9.99/year, which is pretty good--if you believe that NS will really eat any underlying price increases over that time (and, of course, you will actually be using the domain for most of that time). (Well...pretty good until you remember that NS charges another $10/month for WHOIS privacy, which is free at Namecheap [1]).

[1] ...and I would assume at other popular registries. I'm just using Namecheap for comparisons because that is where I now have my domains.
It's this pricing model that makes west coast passenger rail so uncommon, none of my friends had heard of it until I looked it up (I live in LA).

It's not, but my point still stands: by far and large there are way too many seats in that configuration compared to the planned utility for it. You end up with regular passengers having to fit such seats and having a miserable experience. It never happens on a flight.
The USAF really, really wanted large screen displays, and funded extensive efforts to build them.
Pre-computer, they had big manual plotting boards. Big ones, the size of theater screens, with people on lifts updating them. There was the Iconarama, essentially an Etch-A-Sketch hooked to a projector. There was a scheme which drew on movie film with a CRT, developed the film in about 30 seconds, projected the film, and discarded it. This was updated very slowly except during crises. There was Eidophor, used for at least one screen at Apollo mission control. That's a good TV projection system, but high maintenance, involving oil films in vacuum.[1] It's the only early system with serious light output. Everything else was dim.

In my aerospace days, I once came across a USAF study with a history of all the strange large screen displays the USAF had tried. For the Iconarama it said "it is recommended that further systems of this type not be procured."

By the 1980s, projection TV tubes finally had enough light output to do large screen displays.

The technique described here differs a great deal from traditional chemical NMR. That NMR is a spectroscopy technique where the signal includes contributions from huge numbers of atoms. Molecular struture is inferred from the spectra measured by traditional NMR, not viewed in an image. This article describes an imaging technique where images of individual atoms are obtained by a reconstruction algorithm that depends on the imaged volume being in a magnetic gradient - somewhat like a hospital MRI scanner.

I fail to see how your example makes any case on how estimating how many resources a project needs is stupid.

At most your example argues that asking inexperienced and clueless devs to estimate stuff they know nothing about produces highly unreliable information.

The main difference between hacking away at a code base and software engineering is identical to the difference between construction workers and civil engineering. Sure, estimating is hard. Yet of you want reliable estimates you need to check with experienced professionals.
Not entirely true. The various CXO, MD, expensive contractors and middle managers in large companies can afford in some parts of the city. They could afford almost everywhere a couple years ago.

There is a lot of money in London, people just can't fathom how much. An income of £100k a year only gets you around the top 10% of workers.

Needless to say. The closest you get to the center, the more you are competing against the very top percentile, which is filthy rich.

I don’t know what you’re looking for me to say here. I didn’t say anything about taxing on revenue.
I am, and I plan to :)
In terms of “what should a robots.txt file look like to be parsed correctly,” yes, because they’re the ones who are going to be doing most of that parsing. Yes, ideally it would be an entirely independent standardization process, but it’s not arrogant of them.
It's absolutely ridiculous. The very fact that the tech community can't even come to a full consensus on who the device actually is for... it's very telling that it's really for no one.
This doesn't exclude overfitting. You can take samples n much larger than parameters p in, for example, a political or household earnings survey performed in the San Francisco Bay Area, but obviously one cannot safely assume no overfitting occurs in that scenario.
I wish most of the comments weren't so snarky.

I work in a team distributed throughout the globe. It's very difficult to talk about "time" because everyone's timezone is so different.

What would be nice is if our computers always showed two times. The local time in a larger font, and then UTC time in a smaller font.

This way, when we need to talk about time in a global context, we can use UTC. But, because most of us live our lives in local time, we don't need to say something silly like, "I'm getting lunch at 22:00".
A button on a screen is still a button. The “reply” button I’m clicking on right now does not cease to exist just because it doesn’t have a physical switch under it. It’s functionality still works the same.

Being able to touch a moon rock was memorable but I never thought to smell it. My immediate inclination, to be honest, was to go off and wash my hands, considering tens of thousands of other index fingers have rubbed against it. It's probably as germy as a wal-mart shopping cart handle.
So in your view is DoS attack not actually an attack and site owners should just have to handle the traffic?
I guess I wouldn’t have thought that expensive for intercity travel. Certainly doesn’t strike me as such relative to shorter haul European trains I’ve taken.

SecurityTrails | Sr. Backend Lead | Remote | https://SecurityTrails.com

We're looking for a lead engineer to take the reigns for the backend development team. As we've begun to quickly expand our team we need a lead for the application development side that can work with the data team, our prototyping team, sales engineering, and the principles of the organization to craft the way forward as the teams and demands grow.

You should be adept at taking the goals and turning them into tasks for the team, ensuring the output is inline with the long term roadmap and ensuring any hiccups or noise from new team members, or more junior engineers is effectively filtered out. You will take charge of ensuring the test coverage is sufficient, that the team is following processes you need to move the ball forward, and that tasks are correctly architected and validated.

Experience in a particular language or technology is not essential, but you should definitely get excited about building cutting edge big data security products.

Some of the technologies and tools that we currently use: Elixir, Go, Python, Scala, Elasticearch, Kafka, Spark, Beam, BigTable, BigQuery, Amazon Aurora, AWS, Azure, and GCP.
