That's a cool family project! However, assuming that you're only collecting data where e.g. you live, I think you're collecting weather data, not climate data. Climate refers to global averages.

This may sound like a nitpick but it's important to remember that no data from a single location can say much of anything about what the global climate is doing. It's quite possible for some places to get colder even if the climate grows warmer.
But then you get crappy breadboards that once in a while gives a bad connection. Without any visual clue. That can be very hard to debug, especially for the hardware newbie Ben Eater is teaching. Spending an extra $50 to make the process hassle free and enjoyable is money well spent.
The likelihood that they were able to use Stylometry to identify him is near Nil in my opinion. State of the art language models out of Google, Stanford, MIT etc. are barely able to accurately identify authors based on style. I doubt very much that even with "trillions of emails" the NSA was able to do this successfully.
I believe free speech is important but to keep things civil, it has to be open who the message is from. Anywhere anonym messages are allowed quickly deteriorates to *chan levels. We have all seen this in most online games and forums. Human nature is only good if there are some sort of reckoning.
I think that's on a contract-by-contract basis. IIRC NASA still had to pay 80% of the costs for CRS-7, but Spacecom got a free launch after their payload was destroyed (that was kind of a weird case since the explosion happened before the point where their launch insurance would've kicked in, and the damage to the company was much larger than just the cost of replacing the payload)
Left the company 8 months ago but if I could sell everything right now (which I would) I could be getting 3-4M pre-tax money.
However my board is rather inflexible and won't allow any secondary sale, even though I went ahead and found many buyers and even got into sale contracts...
So I am pretty much sitting on paper money until the market crash and I get screwed along with the other employees while the founders were able to sell anytime :)
It is not as simple as you make it out to be.

United States v. Microsoft Corporation, 253 F.3d 34 (D.C. Cir. 2001),[1] was a noted American antitrust law case in which the U.S. government accused Microsoft of illegally maintaining its monopoly position in the PC market primarily through the legal and technical restrictions it put on the abilities of PC manufacturers (OEMs) and users to uninstall Internet Explorer and use other programs such as Netscape and Java [0].

Are you aware of anyone in this thread, or of any major national movement, advocating for a tolerance-based right to perform sexual acts in public in front of children? Looking past the strange and extreme strawman you've propped up, the reasons for tolerance in society are multitudinous. It prevents misunderstanding, fear, and hatred from festering and potentially giving rise to violence.

As a simple thought experiment ask yourself the following question. How many individuals hailing from tolerant communities or organizations have you seen commit mass shootings? Contrast that to the number of individuals committing public violence who hold intolerance as a virtue. Public violence is a serious negative for everyone and its prevention should be reason enough to support tolerance as a basic tenet of societal health. The fact of the matter, no matter who might dislike it, is that modern societies are, for the most part, very diverse. Without tolerance for differences violence is a forgone conclusion in the modern world.
>the solution is to fix government

Yet around the world this solution has largely failed, especially as private entities with enough political power (and money, as these are often interchangeable) have learned how to exploit flaws in human psychology to for their advantage. Until we fix these issues the best option is to minimize the possible harm caused by minimizing the instances where we fine violence an acceptable option.
You are vastly overestimating how good Author identification methods are.
Satellite insurance is a fairly big industry. The owner of the satellite being launched is responsible for getting said insurance against the satellite. This can cover anomalies during launch [1] or anomalies on orbit where the satellite is lost or can no longer perform its mission [2]. Pretty much all commercial companies will have insurance on their satellites, government satellites are typically "self-insured".

Same for Sweden. Even higher taxed. Now, if we had 5% GDP on defense spending (especially if it looked like money wasted on wars or projects missing budget goals) I'd be fuming. I'm not getting rich (which my job would make me in the US) But I have a great work/life balance, have had 2 kids delivered free, spent 1.5 years off with each (shared with my wife) and now I use the remaining days off to pad my summer holiday from 4 to 7 or 8 weeks. Every year until the kids are 8. Daycare and schools including higher ed is free. My kid was born with an illness and has had 3 ambulance trips and 20 other ER visits with hospitalization in 6 years - still ZERO out of pocket, regardless of whether I was employed at the time. I'd have a comfortable life in the US too (even more comfortable) but what makes me happy to pay the 50%+ taxes is that the nursing assistants tending to my daughter in hospital also afford daycare, higher education and healthcare for their kids just as easily as I can.
Murdering people permanently limits their free speech, no? If a website's content is full of discussions about why people ought to be murdered, and how to go about it, and exhortations that it take place as soon as possible, isn't that an attack on the free speech (as well as all other freedoms) of the intended target(s)?
How large is the CubeSat launch market?

Also, they do say this:

VYM or SCHD. VYM tries to mitigate risk through diversification while SCHD tries to mitigate risk through a screening and selection process. VYM comes with a slightly higher dividend (3.14% vs 2.93% for the 12 month yield). They are both highly rated on Morningstar.
That’s actually a newer theory dating back to Robert Bork’s 1978 book The Antitrust Paradox. It is not at all clear that consumer welfare was a goal of the Sherman Act.
> Why is saying "we should not tolerate X" not intolerant speech, when it is literal advocacy of intolerance in the form of speech?

Because like any other law in any society, context is taken into account. You're deliberately twisting what would normally be said in this situation, something like:

"Parents must feed their children"

Into a ridiculous alike of:

"We should not tolerate parents not feeding their children"

Which is not only how literally not a single person alive speaks, but is also a transparent attempt to make a ridiculous example that wouldn't happen to discredit the idea of banning intolerant speech.

The dictionary defines intolerance as: 1 : unable or unwilling to endure, which is applicable to the sort of example you're putting forward, which is as a side-note, an excellent example of a tendency of right-leaning people to put forward arguments that, while logically sound, in any context look and are ridiculous. I know this, because I spent a long time doing it myself. Now, being that we're two smart people having a discussion, we're going to use the second definition, which is clearly what is being discussed and is relevant to the question:

2a: unwilling to grant equal freedom of expression especially in religious matters, b: unwilling to grant or share social, political, or professional rights

RE: Bigotry, which is what is behind so many movements in this vein. Speech from these movements can and should be suppressed under the law, citing that the things they are saying are intolerant, because their speech is putting forth the argument that a certain group of whatever kind of people should be denied some kinds of expression or rights in the public space, and it's doing so, going back to my original comment, for no reason or logic, but to indulge their bigotry.

Questions?
Thanks for these links.

Thinking we will see amplification of this topic as employees, founders, investors, and hiring platforms bring more transparency to equity and compensation. Would love to hear any ideas that stick out to you.
>What I'm saying is that if you don't see the humor, you're missing something.

No, they are not. The reasons behind the horrors of nazi germany where probably unique in many way. but not all genocides need to look the same.

It is significantly silly to say it cannot happen just because it cannot happen in the same way.

That said I believe a new genocide is impossible in the US in the coming year. This won't stop a violent escalation fo the rhetoric.
But Google has a way bigger search market share than Microsoft had browser market share at the time. And Google leverages Chrome to build and maintain search market dominance by making Google the default search engine on Chrome. Microsoft wasn’t doing that with IE. It’s not like Microsoft was stopping Netscape on Windows. All things considered, Google is showing more signs of being a monopoly than Microsoft was at the time.
Wouldn’t that kind of behavior make a company seem less like a monopoly, and extend the time to government intervention?

"Competition breeds innovation - lower prices, better customer service, new ways of doing things... none of those things happen without competition, because there is no incentive to improve."

Those are the three things Amazon has done amazing at (lower prices, better customer service, new ways of doing things). Isn't that a paradox? You take the stance that only competition can breed this but in this case Amazon has done those things while still reducing competition. In fact, it is helping consumers that has led to people buying things on Amazon and it getting this big. Not the other way around.

Is it that people are afraid that at some point Amazon might stop doing these things? I agree that if what amazon is doing has lead to higher prices, worse customer service, and stagnant methods of doing things that would be bad. But thats not whats happening here.

Of course, what’s worse than a weak start is simply not starting at all. Moreover, if you’ve publicly disclosed your invention, then you have only a one-year grace period to apply for a patent. You forfeit your patent rights if you fail to file within the 1-year grace period. http://www.patenttrademarkblog.com/first-to-file-patent-rule...

In the EU.. you destroy immediately.. there is no grace period.
Where specifically are those areas where the government will give free fertile land to farmers? In most of the country, farm land goes for at least $8000 per acre. If any was actually available for free, existing farmers would happily take it and use it productively.

> who´s to judge which ones are right and which one are wrong

We have the power to decide. This is what the companies dropping 8chan are doing: using their power to stand up to something they view as morally wrong. Most people are happy to take your money regardless of your politics, but endorsement of domestic terrorism isn't worth the abstract philosophical consideration. If you take a moment to empathize with your fellow humans and consider the horrific suffering wrought by ideologies endorsed by 8chan, it's very easy to come to the conclusion that 8chan deserves to be destroyed.
I think you answered this very well yourself: "In biology its not at all a good assumption that if it makes sense in your head, then it will work in a human being, because no single person (not even a mythical House MD) has a full mental model of what we currently understand about all our biological systems."

We do our best to vet the eventual scientific feasibility of these ideas, but it's along the lines of "it makes sense in theory", not "it will definitely work".

Because, as you said, our understanding of biology is so incomplete, I think that is the best that is possible right now. But I think that's ok. We (as a society) should be pursuing all the ideas that make sense. Some will work out of the box, some will work with modifications, and some just won't work at all. But this is the only way I know to make progress.
The implication is that Berkeley is "correcting" the temperature record in Bucharest to show rising temperatures over time even though the raw data don't show an overall increase. I'll let someone with more expertise comment on what the rationale behind Berkeley's process actually is.

> I'll assume you are a woman.

Why are you assuming this person is a woman? What does that have to do with your point about prostitution reducing shootings?

Also what does legalizing prostitution have to do with reducing sexual abstinence? Color me confused.
Sooner or later I would seriously need a list of trustworthy citations for the plethora of cases of antifa violence.
I'm really baffled at the lack of understanding of marginal tax rates amongst otherwise educated adults (assuming you're not being deliberately deceptive here.)

> The US government actually spends more per capita on healthcare($4,197/person/year) than most countries with free excellent healthcare (Switzerland $4178/pp/y, Canada $3074/pp/y, UK $2802/pp/y). Netherlands govt spends barely more than the US govt at $4495/pp/y.

This is an unbelievably important thing to bring up. The US government already spends enough to have fully socialized, excellent health care. The only reason taxes have to go up for an M4A proposal is because enormous amounts of protectionist legislation and regulatory capture make the same services cost double in the US. If we had sane health care costs (which could be accomplished pretty quickly by opening the local market to foreign competition), taxes wouldn't have to go up at all.

edit: Dean Baker made a suggestion that stuck with me years ago; instead of a public option, just allow Americans to buy into other countries' health systems, for example, France's. They could provide services at a nice rate on US soil, and use US payments and addition to the risk pool to subsidize their own citizens' health care at home. Other countries would start competing with each other for US business, and would so radically undercut local providers that health care prices would be vaguely economically justifiable in no time.

I've found the opposite to be the case, in my own experience – by first starting with brand new notation, and only later introducing the "standard" notation, he removes the absolute mystique which often surrounds existing notation, and frees you up to realize that a notation is just _a_ way of expressing an underlying idea.

He also does mention existing notation, and has a discussion on the strengths and weaknesses of various notation forms, e.g.: comparison of dM/dx vs ΔM/Δx vs M′. After reading it, I feel much more comfortable with the soup of new (and re-defined) notation one encounters when reading maths papers. With this presentation, notation becomes just a tool I know how to use, rather than some strange Math fiat delivered from on high.
You are "free" to drop a client for any reason, regardless of what the contract says. You may, however, be liable. Contract law (torts) is different from criminal law. No one goes to prison for for dropping a client, regardless of what a contract says.

Cloudflare just decided to drop 8chan as a client. That's it. That's all that happened. 8chan can sue in civil court if they feel a contract was breached or they suffered damages. No one did anything illegal. No claim that anything illegal was done need be made. That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.
It's also very dependent on personal adaptation. If you've always lived in an airconditioned space then you're not used to dealing with the heat. The previous owners likely were, and consequently were less bothered by it.
“The issue central to the case was whether Microsoft was allowed to bundle its flagship Internet Explorer (IE) web browser software with its Windows operating system. Bundling them is alleged to have been responsible for Microsoft's victory in the browser wars as every Windows user had a copy of IE. It was further alleged that this restricted the market for competing web browsers (such as Netscape Navigator or Opera), since it typically took a while to download or purchase such software at a store.”

How is different than what Chromebook does? Or what Google does bundling Google search with Chrome as the default search engine?

I would say it's #2 mixed with someone orchestrating the acts to become an alt right celebrity for fame, money and probably "red pilling". The death threats she made are part of the M.O and getting banned from YouTube is on purpose to get as much publicity and exposure as possible.

If it is established that a child exists as of the moment when the expectant wants an abortion, then yes her abortion would be intolerance of the continued existence of the child.

In fact, in many jurisdictions that allow abortion at some stages of pregnancy, there are stages of pregnancy where it is accepted that a child exists (or similar) and thus abortion (without other conditions) is not allowed.

But a debate on in which stages a child exists during a pregnancy is not the debate we are having here.
Likewise, if you cause harm, it doesn't matter if you technically dominate the market. The key word is trust, not monopoly.

Cartels are also bad for markets, but aren't monopolies either. Monopolies have become a deprecated technology, but vertical integration lives on in new ways that resemble a feudal system more than a single empire. The economy as a whole has gotten so big that there is room for more than a single player at the top, and so we get cartel-like behavior between the largest players instead of full-blown monopolies. Each of them is large enough that they can ignore unrest from their customer base, and as a result they have more incentive to cooperate than to compete. The difference between Microsoft and Apple isn't the quality of their product anymore, it's a brand of tribal identity.

As abusive, anti-competitive practices continue to be improved on, we should not be constrained by outdated theories that only focus on 19th and 20th century phenomena.
reCAPTCHA is the most annoying and presumptuous tracking spyware online. I've come to close websites almost immediately when I discover that they use it. "Discover" is the correct word here, as website developers are usually too careless, to provide any noscript hint that reCAPTCHA is even used and I find myself wondering, why that damn website does not work, until I check my uMatrix and see the evil that reCAPTCHA is. If the service is really needed, I need to allow stuff and reload pages up to 5 times, as script loads script loads script from other domain loads frame ...

This makes for the most shitty experience ever, when I try to use such a website and I give the middle finger to the person who decided they need to have a reCAPTCHA there and to the person who put it there and I tell them the F work in my mind. The disregard for people's privacy cannot get much worse than with reCAPTCHA.

I don't hate taxes.

I like having education, roads, community services, a safety net for those less fortunate, a strong military, infrastructure and the myriad other things that governments (should) spend money on.

What I do hate is the obsessive hatred of taxes. No wonder governments get into massive debt - they don't have money.

I also hate large companies avoiding and shirking tax and leaving it to people to pay - I really hate that. Apple, Amazon etc etc all guilty of this - they want our money, they want profit from our community, they don't want to contribute back - at all, if they can possibly avoid it.
And why would consumers coordinate against a company that is benefiting them with lower prices, great customer service, and insanely fast shipping now (I live in a small town of 40,000 - 3 hours from any major metropolis and get 1 day shipping)? Honestly I'm pretty impressed how such a massive company still seems to do a majority of their customers good, without even making them pay more. I'd say most of the people I know who use amazon are pretty happy with the service they are getting. To the average consumer whose looking out for their own personal bottom line, whats the benefit of coordinating against them?
