I listen to some of Rogan's podcasts (usually not comedians or MMA commentary) because of the long conversation format. For me, it's more about who Rogan is talking to rather than being interested in listening to Rogan talk.

Whether it's POTUS candidates (Bernie, Yang, Gabbard), intellectuals (Dr. Cornell West, Eric Weinstein), interesting individuals (musicians, nutritionists, etc.), or the more 'controversial' guests you get to hear a 'real' conversation and understand more about the person he's talking to.

You can't get away with canned soundbites in this format, so I think it leads to less propaganda and BS and more considerate dialogue and thinking.

Whether Joe Rogan is the best person to host these conversations is negated by the fact that he's one of the only people doing this. To that end, I support him 100%.
He hosted Fear Factor back in the day. He also replaced the host (iirc) for The Man Show. He was involved with UFC as a commentor or broadcaster.

His podcast is also one of the top downloaded worldwide and has been for years.

The exact same goes for regular computers and operating systems. And we still have those. Shouldn't we at least have the option on mobile?
This shows up again that the "right to be forgotten" is again primarily being used by the rich and powerful to whitewash previous crimes. One example which occurs multiple times in the BBC article is the disgraced but wealthy former UK cabinet minister Chris Huhne, who was released early from luxury prison and parachuted into a cushy job in the industry he was supposed to be regulating as a minister. He and his partner have repeatedly tried to use the courts to silence media coverage of them, and the courts have ruled against them every time. So now they've gone to Google instead for a cover up with less oversight.

It's all about the long form interviews. Each week, he puts out several of these long conversations with a very diverse set of subjects. Without being a centrist, his politics are pretty close to the middle, and he interviews folks across the spectrum.

The conversations are very natural. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but his common-sense approach has a way of keeping things interesting and often unexpected. One time he interviewed James Hetfield, the lead singer of heavy metal band Metallica, and they spent 20 minutes talking about beekeeping. It's okay, it was fun, and it's the kind of thing you can get away with in a three hour interview.
Question: do you have to decode to a 4-channel format, e.g. with alpha? What about decoding to just RGB?
This sounds like my nightmare operating system. Reusing the same command to operate on very different kinds of objects is a bad idea.
A file is very different from a process. A database table is very different from a file.
Whenever you try to homogenize operations on different kinds of objects under a single operation name, you inevitably lose
flexibility or you have to add a lot of if-then-else statements inside the implementation code which increases cyclomatic complexity and leads to bugs.

Also I don't think it makes it easier. What if I want to delete a process but I accidentally end up deleting a file because I mistyped the name of the process (or the file has the same name as the process; which one should be deleted?)?
I think we need separate commands because the user needs to be in a different mindset when doing these operations.

I'm actually not a huge fan of the Unix philosophy for that reason; you end up with a lot of general purpose commands which work together in theory and you can
combine them in an infinite number of ways... But in practice, they are too general and this means that combining them becomes too slow for a lot of scenarios...
If commands are too small and too general, you will always end up having to write long sequences of multi-lined commands chained together in order to do anything useful and performance will be bad; you might as well just write C/C++ code.

Platforming Stefan molyneaux, Steven crowder and Alex Jones repeatedly for $$$ was totally not causing harm. Rogan is great when he’s giving airtime to people who want you to believe that IQ and brain sizes define intelligence for an entire race of people.

Totally no harm done. Great guy. No one should say anything bad about him because letting Nazis wax poetic to a naive audience is totally harmless and only entertaining.

Love it.

Funny! Made almost the exact same website a while ago:
http://moneter.pythonanywhere.com/
Annihilation, Dark City, Riddick Chronicles, Babylon A.D., Guardians of The Galaxy, Fast and Furious, Hummingbird, Transporter, Crank, Hardcore Henry, Revolver, Lucy, Ghost in The Shell, Now you see me, Passengers, Transcendence, Maze Runner, Limitless...

I think we've had a good run; I also think it's easy to be biased and not see it because of some nostalgia-effect of sorts. If you are f.e. 30+ you might more easily dismiss a movie as Limitless or Lucy as uncredible; both are based on a common myth that we only utilize a low percentage of our brains capacity, as an example, so they are that: unrealistic. But I think that's an unfair comparison because of an inherent bias that when you think about a movie like The Matrix you don't see it with the same critical lens because you perhaps had less knowledge of the world in your earlier years. #JustAFewThoughts
IIRC it was changed in C++14. Now in the RVO case, no copy/move constructor is required (and in fact the compiler is not allowed to call it if it exists).
I’m interested in this too! If you do outsource maybe we could join forces and offer it as a service. It seems like there would be some good demand and folks would pay a lot for nostalgia (eg rosebud)

Also if this was a reasonably popular service you’d end up with (1000s?) Of input photos with their mapped recreated environments. Perhaps that could serve as the training data for an algorithm.
Do you want to see detail in the dark bits? That seems to be one area where the rainbow ones shine.

"If we all have fatal flaws, this is Joe’s: his insistence on seeing value in people even when he shouldn’t, even when they’ve forfeited any right to it, even when the harm outweighs the good. It comes from a generous place, but it amounts to careless cruelty. He just won’t write people off, and then he compounds the sin by throwing them a lifeline at the moment when they least deserve it."

I'm no fan of Joe Rogan, but this criticism sounds like high praise to me.

This is kind of how I feel about Tim Ferris as well. I think Ferris is pretty blatantly self-promoting during his interviews ("When I was writing 'The Four-Hour Body'..."), which turns me off. And he has a thing for Tony Robbins that is baffling. But he gets some fascinating guests, and he is very, very good at finding good questions to ask.
Pushing right? In what regard?
I recently started listening to his stuff, around ep 1100 up to current stuff (skipping mostly over episodes centered around MMA, comedian, hunting guests).

From that he had few small rants about ppl calling him "right", which he seems to have quite strong feelings.
He openly supports Dem candidates, he is pro drugs, he is pro equality, he drives tesla and loves nature.
He seriously entertains idea of UBI (multiple episodes).
He gets called "right" wing because he talks to people of all spectrum and/or goes after ultra-left, ultra-right ideas.

I listen occasionally. I generally find his conversations interesting, and sometimes even enlightening. But it can be frustrating to hear 3 hours of unchallenged straw man beatdowns from his more polemic guests. There's an argument that it's actually not noble to let bullshit go unchallenged. That it's a tacit endorsement.

Yeah, sorry, I didn't follow the thread carefully enough and had the context wrong / thought you were discussing the concert situation.

I may be wrong here, but I still think a middle income person is more likely to be willing to spend time in line than a high income person - maybe not as much because they actually _have_ more time available, but rather because they don't value their time as highly, see it as "cheaper" to spend it waiting in line, or are simply more accustomed to being made to wait in lines. Conversely, if I am very rich, I may very well be able to afford waiting in lines, but I may also be more averse to doing so.

What to Expect When Your Company Is Getting Acquired
The eLife paper you link to discusses errors in RNA synthesis (transcription), not in tRNA-dependent protein synthesis (translation). The abstract mentions “translation”, but only as an amplifier of transcription errors: each mRNA transcript is translated into proteins thousandfold, so every error in a single mRNA molecule will be present in thousands of protein molecules.

Translation errors also exist, and some people hypothesise that there is selective pressure on protein-coding genes to reduce this source of errors by selecting codons in a way that reduces the error rate (potentially by slowing down the polymerase). This results in something known as “codon bias” but so far there is no good evidence that codon bias has an actual effect on error rate (it does have an effect on correct protein folding), or is selected for (http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.27344, http://dx.doi.org/10.1371/journal.pgen.1006024).

Making a new OS doesn't have to be more complicated than making any new program. See http://unikernel.org/
I like Joe Rogan, and I think there's a handful of reasons why people love him so much:

1. He has strong principles. This is evident when you look at his involvement in the downfall of Carlos Mencia, despite being a relatively unknown comedian at the time.

2. The only filter is himself. He's not a part of a network, and thanks to you "fuck you money" he made from Fear Factor he doesn't need to answer to anybody. That allows him a level of independence to have who he wants on his show, and to talk about what he wants.

3. Passion. I do BJJ, and a lot of people have got into BJJ through Joe Rogan talking about it on JRE. It's funny how much of an impact he's had, considering there is very little footage of him actually sparring. For reference, he's got two black belts - one under Jean Jacques Machado in BJJ, and one under Eddie Bravo in his 10th Planet style of BJJ. Both instructors are as legit as they come, and they don't just hand out belts, so Rogan earned those belts. His passion for BJJ and MMA earned him his spot with the UFC, and a UFC post-Rogan will be a much-worse place.

4. He naturally leans to the centre. It's funny how some people on the left call him right-ring, and some on the right call him liberal, when I'd say he has individual views on multiple sides. He'll have a civil chat with Bernie Sanders on one episode, and will praise Trump for playing a good campaign against the Democrats on another. It's refreshing to see someone open his airtime to multiple different views, when even the likes of the BBC cannot represent both sides of a debate without extreme government bias.

5. He knows what he doesn't know, and he won't convince himself of something without fact. That attitude in a sea of people that push opinion as fact is refreshing.

Best companies for CS / software research career?
I am from India. Here education system isn't so good. I have some genuine interest in cs (OS, PL etc..), & want to work at a well paying software R&D position after 4 years of B.E / B.Tech in CSE.

Here not many good companies come for college placements. I would like a career in R&D, and willing to do additional work for that as well. Also would ideally expect good salaries that translate to INR 60 lpa or so*..

What are companies that we can consider?

My preference is to systems level things but please feel free to put any suggestions because there are few students actually interested / talented in CS in India, but rote oriented education system is hindering them.
You probably think the comment sucks because it’s inconvenient that your popular host doesn’t curate his guests well or have strong debate skills to stop the most egregious shit from being said on his show because at the end of the day he’s still muscle headed Joe Rogan.

People are fawning over him because he doesn’t interject... but he doesn’t interject because he can’t formulate convincing and moral arguments on the fly.
Sure. Let's make meth available to kids too while we're at it. Why expect social or moral responsibility from people at all?
That’s why he does best with a lot of scientists and not so good with people who are trying to sell something.
Forced Password Reset? Check Your Assumptions
haha yeah he's pretty big, I first heard about him through his Jordan Peterson interviews, but he's pretty good. He's had sports nutritionists on both for and against keto etc, Alex Jones was hilarious and eye opening, so was Tom Delongue (the guy is nuts), James Damore, a number of comedians, Kevin Smith was great, and yeah he just lets them talk, you're free to form your own opinions, it's kinda refreshing and nice to fall asleep to when most youtube vids (even the talky ones) are shrinking to ~10 minutes.
I guess I contribute to his popularity since I've seen some of his interviews and subscribe to his YouTube channel. But the article seems to overanalyze it: for me, it's because he has a huge variety of guests, and some of them are pretty interesting. For instance, I really liked the Elon Musk and Andrew Yang interviews. The interviews are not particularly all softball questions nor especially combative. They're just _long_, and he's a passable interviewer, and so lots of good stuff comes up.

I haven't seen the majority of his stuff, so I wouldn't call myself a "fan".
YouTube Secrets Review, Work or a Scam?
Sorry that your jokes aren't landing.

But seriously, repeating a 3 letter tag line to fit in is not "comedy".

I also don't think Joe is very funny, though a lot of his guests/friend circle is (Tom Segura, Christina P, Ari S etc). His strength is in free flowing conversational interviewing, hence why his podcast is leagues more popular than his stand up (relative to the pack).
