I think that paragraph is just saying what they're going to analyse, not the conclusion. They proceed to analyse each hypothesis, and conclude crypto-coins don't fit in any, therefore not being taxable under personal IRS.

Great idea; thanks!

There's a limitation on the number of apps you can sideload (3), and each app auto-expires after a short period (7 days) of time and needs to be re-provisioned.
It's quite acceptable to be tall and speak with a deep voice in society. Most male clothing is intended to highlight masculine features, such as broad shoulders, and present a generally "top heavy" look.
in your first one, you didn't ask for feedback on it but stating you had presented it.

As far as the proposal, you basically say Mozilla is petering out/an also-ran and that they should essentially leverage what can be leveraged from Chromium and focus on their custom functionality to differentiate and allowing them to focus in such a way that they don't need as many resources. You also invoke Not Invented Here, yet pretty sure Firefox predates Chromium by a pretty fair margin, but I would imagine that WebKit/Chromium/Blink all exist because the stakeholders of the time didn't feel Firefox was moving in the direction they wanted to go. If that's the case, what likelihood is there that Firefox is going to import more than necessary from Chromium effectively allowing Google et al to steer Firefox's direction? You bring up modules they do use, but those are essentially standards that they have in place because everyone should have them. Your "third way" is more or less what they're doing already, you even acknowledge this, but you advocate for a vague "more" for them to bake into Firefox. What more are you specifically wanting them to bring in from Chromium?
The key word there being "was".

Note that you can mix the languages in the same program, but it's no different than the capability of such modules as Inline::C and Inline::Python in Perl, and doesn't actually involve natively implementing a Perl interpreter.
Would the terms of the AGPL3[1] fit what you're talking about?

The idea of the AGPL is that if you expose a service online which uses AGPL licensed software, you're required to publish the source code with any modifications or additions you've made to it. I'm not sure on the enforceability of these provisions (how would we know if i.e. Amazon was using a modified version of AGPL software and not publishing their changes?).

But, if it works as intended, the AGPL would require that these companies publish the improvements they make to open source software. This would prevent situations like Amazon using modified Linux on their servers without contributing the modifications back to the community. This is a more careful closing of the larger loophole in non-copyleft license that allows, for example, Apple to take BSD code for MacOS X, without contributing back to BSD.

State of the Art (not-formal) of Image Matching techniques [pdf]
> Say all you want about DDG and alternatives

I've been using DDG, finally, for a little less than 1 year. For most part my DDG searches have been sufficient, in the sense that I generally find what I'm looking for and my need is met.

On few occasions where my need is not met, I do a !g and sometimes Google gives me what I want, but not in all the cases. I have to refine my search query in many, if not most, of those cases.

One area where Google is definitely better than DDG, for obvious reasons, is where Google shows better YouTube videos and I believe also Image results. But for regular searches, DDG has been satisfactory.

Is mining taxable in other parts of the world? I would have thought it was only when you SOLD the crypto for fiat.
To illustrate this I like to use the analogy of very basic physics.

Even someone who never took calculus can usually grasp the concept of first learning ideal velocity and acceleration, then adding details like friction.
The 'they have a problem' might need to be expanded upon. Are we talking health issues related to weight, age, pregnancy, or other factors? Some of those are illegal to discriminate upon.
Agreed, this is all a form of weaponized AI being used by the private sector to influence, optimize, and profit. Using AI for these purposes is perfectly fine. But there needs to be a realization of the impact so that guidelines, checks, and balances can be put in place. There can be unintended consequences of these things that the AI doesn't care about since its playing for high-score in the game of attention, views, and profit.

So you fundamentally believe the government should force Apple to provide its software and services under very specific terms of use.

You understand that many of these APIs are actually cloud-backed services that cost Apple money to operate?

You understand that Apple funds the development and operation of these services through their share of App Store revenue?

But you fundamentally believe this business model should be banned / illegal, because the idea of a device existing like the modern day iPhone does — a device which no one on Earth requires, and which has many substitutes — the idea that this device exists in its current form as a cohesive set of APIs and services that every app employs in order to provide a consistent and “magical” end-user experience - this is somehow detestable and must be eliminated?
Plenty of QR code generators, and QR code readers, aren't associated directly with cryptocurrency. It's not hard to create and verify a QR code using software that isn't associated with bitcoin, and so doesn't have a target painted on it for cybercreeps.
Right on. It takes quite a bit of experience to get to the point where you can sort of look into the future to think about what living with the new system will be like, once its warts and shortcomings are known. The time-sucking problems usually won't show up during a PoC where everything looks beautiful and easy.
I think fuzzing, like afl, is an example of the kind of machine learning that might be useful to software engineering. If we could just figure out how to fuzz requirements along with input fields, we might get somewhere.
I've always written off Duck Duck Go in the past, but lately after not being able to find relevant info on Google, I've been giving them a go and have been rather impressed. Especially on image results, which are way nicer to use and give you direct image links. Plus they don't obfuscate all the URLs with tracking redirects, so I can copy a link without visiting a page (that might redirect the URL on me again.)

There's still some things they miss, and my main complaint with DDG is it's too aggressive in taking the search you asked for and substituting in results it thought you meant. I suspect that problem comes from their upstream providers like Bing, which has similar issues.
> The language evolves.

Conlangs aren't meant to evolve, especially not IALs. That's how you get dialects, and soon you're right back to where you started.

The whole point of having an artificial language as your IAL is that it's rational, planned, and unchanging; it's the same language at all times, in all places, as opposed to a natural IAL like English, which has regional and national variants and evolves over time sufficiently to make statements mean different things in different decades.

Engel Expansion
I made a thing that sends an email when a list on the internet changes https://github.com/zvakanaka/list-lemur
I'm not well versed in this area, but from my perspective, I see this as the fundamental problem:

Every action my brain takes is made of two components: (1) the desired outcome of the thought, and (2) the computation required to achieve that outcome. No matter how well computers can solve for 2, I have no idea how they'd manage solving for 1. This is because in order to think at all, I have to have a desire to think that thought, and that is a function of me being an organism that wants to live, eat, sleep, etc.

So for me, I just wonder how we're going to replicate volition itself. That's a vastly different, and vastly more complicated, problem.
Luckily, you can pay other people to do that. Apple prevents a customer from getting their own device repaired at a reputable repair shop of their choice.
Thanks! Yes, an API is extremely high on my priority list. Zapier as well. Let me know what kinds of endpoints/actions you'd need from the API so I can make sure they are included. What integrations would you like to see?

As this is not an overnight conversion and you are quite proficent with vim already, my advice is to:

- Get used to type "emacs file.txt" instead of "vim file.txt" in your console.

- Have a function in emacs that opens the current file in vim for those moments where you just want your trusted environment. Writing it by yourself is a good focused learning experience.

This way you'll decide (and balance) how much you want to learn every day, and little by little you'll find yourself using that function less and less.
>Just think of such meeting as a paid break

If you are paid salary and having to work any overtime, then it is likely taking up productive time and resulting in more unpaid overtime. If you are hourly, then I think that mentality works fine. I wonder if the different incentives every cause a problem in work places with both types of workers.
It doesn't sound like your torn at all, if you think DDG still feels year behind Google, despite Google's results degrading. Sounds like you still think Google is a lot better.

It seems it's not, at least for individuals; from what I can tell, the tax law that taxes gains is not generic, that is, it explicitly lists the types of property (shares, financial instruments, etc) that it applies to, and cryptocurrency doesn't fit any, therefore the gains are not taxable.

Reading the AI go FOOM debate solidified a lot of the mushy parts of my "singularitianism"

I think the linchpin of my belief is recursive self improvement. I think machine intelligences are a different kind of substance with different dynamics than the ones we typically encounter.

I don't think someone will compile the first AGI and presto there is it. I think a long running system of processes will interact and rewrite its own code to produce something, which eventually a reasonable boundary could be drawn to distinguish the system and anyone interacting with the system would say: "this thing is intelligent, the most intelligent thing on the planet". It would have instant access to all written knowledge, essentially unbounded power to compute new facts and information and model the world to as accurate of an approximation as needed to produce high confidence utterances.

I just don't see how a system like that couldn't come into existence one day. Issues around timelines are completely unknowable to me. But I would put a distribution of something like I would be surprised if it happened in the next 50 years and shocked if it didn't happen within the next 1000. Very fuzzy, but it "feels" inevitable.

If a collection of unthinking cells can coordinate and produce the feeling of conscious experience then I can't see what would stop silicon from producing similar behavior without many bounds inherent in biological systems.
Low hanging fruit. Also, we haven't really broken many speed records in the last 50 years.

So what happens first, AGI or traveling at close to the speed of light?

Agreed.

> Of which there are several.

I count one (Google). Who are the others in the smartphone space that are viable competitors to Apple in either company's home market (USA)?
Sure, but they count on it for significant revenue. If Google didn't want to pay it, but they kept Google, they'd be giving up that revenue from some other potential provider.

(Of course, if Google didn't want to pay it, it might cause a crash in the 'market value' of such a placement anyway).

its not Machiavellian, no, we as an economic age are past mere psychology .. Producing the kinds of non-repairable consumer electronics that are produced for the last thirty years is ruthlessly usury of people, materials inputs, trade law, credit, investment vehicles, tax shelters, the list is endless .. A "right to repair" in 2019 is a pathetic joke. A product designed to be repaired is a completely different physical device, a different business ecosystem, a different mental model on the part of the consumer, and of course the architects of the buying, the providing corporation.

Make no mistake, this world is choking on hundreds of billions of tons of non-degradable, poisonous remnants of consumer goods, with much more in the pipeline every day.

during Chrome's climb, Firefox was a fairly slow mess and in some ways caused by users having tons of addons enabled at any given time. Firefox was a lot better than IE when Firefox came out (and remained that way even during its slow period), but Chrome was a lot better during its initial rise than both of them too.

Firefox is way better from a performance standpoint than it was during Chrome's climb, but Chrome gobbled up all of the "not built into my OS" market share and unless someone is severely for privacy, does it have enough to differentiate to get people to switch? To me, they seem to be very much peers of equal value.
And why is the only option for a strict app store no warning, no due process, no appeals, and no actual support?
Isn’t that the entire point of the article is that Apple is allowing repairs at “reputable shops”. And how do you “choose” a reputable shop without knowing where the parts come from?

I usually see a button of an Android next to the URL bar on sites that have a compatible app. Take for example watching a YouTube video on FF. If I click on it, FF opens the associated app.
Chrome also has a persistent advantage in being able to advertise Chrome on google search results.

Which they do, if you access them using a non-Chrome browser, or at least used to... I confess I'm not sure because I still use Chrome. I agree with you about the advantage of "if you're already using it, something has to be a LOT better to get you to switch".
It will happen lots but it’s unlikely astronomers would be able to observe the effect due to how rare it is. Generally making very precise/sensitive measurements like this requires control over the conditions in a laboratory so you reject the more common processes.

Depression is when you've been under enough stress for enough time (which for many people takes the form of anxiety) that your body starts pressing "snooze" on those emotional signals that are trying to spur it into action. It feels hopeless that it can satisfy what they're asking of it, so it starts to suppress them.

While the two are different - opposites, in some ways - they very frequently coincide and feed into each other circularly. They're also extremely common and can be overcome through therapy, possibly combined with medication. If you're dealing with them, know that it's okay and normal, and see if you can find a therapist to talk with.
