Fun fact, the Galileo system was designed to be more accurate and difficult to jam than the civilian GPS but after the US saw this a potential threat and considered shooting down the satellites in case of a global conflict, the design was switched to a frequency they could easily jam.[1]

It’s true that they both work, but I think the floating nature of the 1-indexing has some very desirable properties. If we wanted to sample from a distribution, the stride would relate to 1/n x 100 percent sampling. With 0-indexing we are always going to sample the first element. Granted this isn’t the best way to sample in the first place, so maybe it’s a contrived.
They said that no direct sunlight must fall on the external walls at all and the north façade [direction of summer sun] window-to-wall area must not exceed 25%.

Pass. Natural light (and tons of it!) are a hard requirement for anywhere I actually want to work. (Besides light and airy spaces being generally pleasant, I have mild SAD.)

In any case, I'd rather use modern air conditioning, which is stunningly efficient. It also actually produces temperatures I can live in. They don't quote actual interior temperatures (or humidities!) but I'll bet their "acceptable" is 78F+. Anything north of 70 and I am a sweaty mess. (If you're cold, put on a sweater; I can't exactly strip in the office and you wouldn't want to sit next to me anyway!)

Complaints about air conditioning are mostly a form of modern self-flagellation. If you're not suffering, you're not doing enough for Gaia. Cost/benefit calculations simply don't enter into it (if they did, someone might point out that eliminating all cooling whatsoever would not even move the needle on US energy. Consider https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2017/4/13/1526860... and https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=1174&t=1, from which you can see that cooling is 9% of electricity, which is perhaps 38% of total energy usage.)

I think most normal drivers on a cross country trip need bathroom breaks, lunch/snacks/drinks, leg stretching etc. every 2-3 hours. Great opportunity to plug in and recharge enough for another 2-3 hours. Range anxiety is mostly irrational and mostly a non technical problem as your car probably has more endurance than you.

I agree with the rest of your post, but this is completely untrue. No one trying to do serious distance stops every 2-3 hours, and especially not for the 20 minutes for a Tesla 50% supercharge top up. Maybe 10 minutes every 3-4 hours is realistic.
After the creation of cities and nation states, the smartphone is the next major step for the human race towards becoming a single superorganism. Maybe the last major step, seeing as full integration is probably a matter of many smaller advancements in the future.

So essentially forbid everything that makes them the most amount of revenue from advertising? I don't see that likely to happen.

The problem with Facebook is not exclusive to Facebook Inc. It's a common symptom of advertising-based and similarly nefarious business models used by the richest modern corporations. Investors want their ROIs and optimizing for advertising delivers that easily when the business handles extraordinary amounts of personal information.

There are many ways of breaking out of this corrupt model. Creating new business models not dependent on advertising is a no-brainer, but so is creating tools that enable people to keep control over the data they share online. There's a lot of emphasis on distribution and cryptocurrencies recently, which is great, but we have a long ways to go to make the importance of these systems understandable by the general public, while also making them approachable and easy to use.
The web has changed. It has become a vastly more hostile environment. In my view, the appropriate way of acknowledging this change is to prioritize security over features. Whether a feature is useful or not is no longer the primary consideration.
> I think most normal drivers on a cross country trip need bathroom breaks, lunch/snacks/drinks, leg stretching etc. every 2-3 hours.

I don't think this is true. I recently drove 12 hours to Austin, TX and I stopped only once to get gas after 6 hours. I don't really like to waste a bunch of time on stops when I have a destination in mind.

That said, I don't have a family or anything, so I could see how that changes when you have a couple children with you.

Yes as an example of this: our daughter's school gives a form where you can indicate where photos of her can be used. This is probably required by the GDPR, but it is nice of them to do it anyway, and they try to hold up their end. We never give permission to anyone to share pictures of our daughter on social media. We believe she has the right to choose what she publishes when she is grown up.

So, the school photographer comes. It's the usual think where they make pictures, and you can order some copies. This year they only made class photos. They send you some link where you can log in to see a watermarked version of the photo, you can then order a digital copy or a printed copy.

However, they also put a Facebook share link on the page where people can share the class photo with one click. I am sure there are a lot of parents who do not even think about the rights and wishes of other parents and just share the photo.

So, we are in a bad situation where we explicitly disallow people to upload photos of our daughter, but not can people upload pictures anyway against our wishes, companies are actively pushing people to do so.

All the tracking and unwanted uploads of personal information (though friends' address books), photos, etc. without any explicit permission is a disgrace. I hope that the EU keeps hitting these companies with the GDPR until they respect people's privacy. Sure, if you decide to share your life with Google, Facebook, and a countless tracking companies, that's up to you. But this unwanted slurping of every bit of information has to end.
Keep them guessing ;)

Shadow Facebook profiles are a thing, and given the fact that the Facebook sdk is spread like a plague amongst everyday 3p mobile apps in-use, there doesn't seem to be an end to this madness in sight. I personally block Facebook domains at dns-level on my phone but not everyone does.

And that is not even enough given the fact that Facebook owns WhatsApp and Instagram, their presence grows ever more ominous given their ubiquity.

Amazon is a logistics company, not a cloud company. Their product strategy is spray and pray. "You want a DB? We have 10!" GC has fewer, more stable, high quality offerings. Amazon is like their store "Want shoes? We got millions." Google is like their site "You want search, we do search."

The AWS approach (and Azure) is clearly working. And the reality is that people want multiple approaches, especially enterprises, which are typically migrating applications to the cloud and can’t just rewrite everything for Google’s random proprietary platform.

Also, I’ll note that GCP is pretty aggressive about EOLing platforms. Good luck with that in the enterprise market.

For me, what's missing from the 'smartphone' // 'religion' analogy is — passion.

The emotional tenor of my relationship with my phone looks — and, I'm sure — very different from the way people relate to their faiths.

Facebook, YouTube, etc don't feel like 'movements' to me, like the article's author said. At least, I don't have the passion that a 'movement' seems to imply.

For me, smartphoning is an emotional gray zone. Most of the time I feel close to nothing. I use it to blot out my worries and deal with the mundanity of my life.

Which makes it more like actual opium, IMO.

I completely respect your rights to smoke whatever you feel like, and your wish for a better healthier way of doing it, or hell even suing the people who targeted you at 11, but my issue is that it hasn't been proved to my satisfaction that vaping is healthier than cigarettes.

Question with graphs is whether you want it to be a representation of a dataset, or persist the graph as the data itself.

For persistence, I use Neo4j to represent hundreds of dynamic graph ontologies, and I use the hosted version on graphenedb, which has worked just fine for my purposes.

For some views, I just use NetworkX to generate interactive d3.js pages from data I have queried from the graph, or python/flask with py2neo to generate json for d3 visualizations. Some others use cytoscape for visualization, but I find that a bit dramatic for most purposes.

Depending on how you would like to represent it, I can also recomment Webprotege and WebVOWL, since the graph you are creating is also in effect an ontology.

There is a final cost decline "baked in" to the curve, though. That's because the lifespan of solar now for calculations is maybe 20 years. Anything more would not make sense as costs are declining so fast. When the tech matures, the final part is extending the lifespan to 40-60 years.

- Do updates show immediately (for both directions)?

- What are the limits of read/write queries?

- What are the limits of rows?

- Can I use formulas in the sheet?

- How is the type handling? Does everything get treated as text or are there date and number types?

- Do formatting options for columns (e.g. for number of decimals) survive when I alter things with the API?
Shouldn't a privacy friendly browser/extension be able to defeat this technique by passing said images through exiftool (or similar) and then caching it?
