You'll develop your own set of troubles at some point.

This has been on my mind for years.

I don’t think Trump’s wall has anything to with the existing situation of migrant workers and political refugees, and everything to do with people like Bannon and Miller.

Bannon's favorite book is this 70's chestnut called _Camp of the Saints_. I urge anyone who thinks the wall project is silly or pointless ("ladders > walls") to at least read the Wikipedia summary and get an idea of what kind of scenarios they're actually serious about.

Logos would be one way to measure success for a sales team but rarely the only one. Most times, there is a quota the salesperson has to hit, and there is a standardized discount schedule they are pre-approved to offer against in order to hit that quota.

I would think that by college age, the raw input to the school had better be pretty well-refined and at roughly the same level.

To let people into big-league colleges with any 'fudge factor' isn't doing them any favors. It's just an easy path to failure. (Also: even if the schools provide hand-holding and personal tutoring, the school had better make sure what is provided sticks. Very well. Else they may graduate some 'charity cases', but it won't be doing the graduates any favors when they hit the workforce.)

That still doesn't explain why it's so cheap.

Planet money did a pod cast on it. Some guy selling some product could buy a Chinese knockoff of his product (including shipping) for cheaper than it costs him to ship his product from his local post office to his house in the same town. (excluding the cost of the product) Think about that. The product plus shipping across the world is cheaper than shipping across town.

It’s not the source of power. It’s the chemical process itself. You get oxygen out of a metal oxide by binding it with carbon and releasing the CO2. Canadian smelting is just as dirty in this respect.

The only other alternative is electrolyzing water to get hydrogen, which binds with the metal oxide’s oxygen to make water again.

But not only is this really inefficient by comparison, but now you’re adding O2 to the atmosphere at industrial scale.

Is levandowski actually exceptionally talented, such that one of him is worth 120-600 other employees?

What has he actually accomplished? All I've read is that he built a self-driving motorcycle for the Grand Challenge, but IIRC his motorcycle made it about 25 feet before falling over.
That should be plenty for the basic 'grandpa wants the internet and Word' use cases, though. If it's not, I blame Microsoft.

I train 3-4 times a week (calisthenics). I tried 5 days of intermittent fasting for 5 days.
I was DYING for food in the morning even on the 5th day, I drank way too much coffee, and in the end what really convinced me I had no reason to keep on doing this was HOW BAD AND SICK my (normally fine and healthy) breath smelled. Like, friends felt compelled to actually ask me why that was the case (yes, good friends will tell you if you have smelly breath).
I suppose it was because I quickly went into ketosis, but overall it wasn't a pleasurable experience. I went back to my regular balanced breakfast as part of my varied vegetarian diet. I guess IF just doesn't cut it for me and maybe I don't have the patient to turn myself into a smelly monster just to follow some popular nutrition fad, especially considering I'm well into my weight and I have low body fat. Just my 2 cents. Internet doesn't convey smells yet, and that's great news for all the crowded fasting online communities out there, I guess.
Hell, if you’re drunk just stay home anyway.
“even if climate change causes a massive reduction in population and standard of living, I’m confident that some humans will survive.”

I agree with that. Humanity will go on. But we may have a lot of wars and suffering while adapting to the new world.

I would have a lot more sympathy for Levandowski if he had taken trade secrets and created his own company.

But he didn't take the engineer/entrepreneur route. He took the corporate espionage route and just stole stuff from one company so that another company would profit, in the process further enriching himself.

At one point he was a good engineer. Then he became just another greedy executive.
It definitely won’t be a problem if 2 billion people become climate refugees and move to higher latitudes....
It's interesting, but as a hobby and primary physical outlet I'm very involved in cycling. I don't race, but I ride with racers, and keep up.

I do not think I could balance fasting with 1,500 calorie efforts. ;)
Personally I use the "Feedbro Reader" addon for Firefox.

That's a bold claim. Batteries could also suffer from law of diminishing returns. It might not be physically possible to store energy much more densely, without catastrophic failures.

This seems unsurprising to me. Presumably the language he designed fits his way of thinking, and he uses it to express his thoughts.

As long as you still understand it he succeeded in using it to communicate, and with some people that's a lot better than them not communicating at all because they have to use someone else's language.

If someone comes up with an amazing construct in an invented language and gets any outside eyeballs on it that can understand it, someone will transcribe it into a more common notation anyways.

Put it in the commit message. There is no better place to put it. That is the exact point in time at which you have the most information about that exact change. Commit messages are cheap, be liberal with your words and links.

It drives me nuts to read commit messages of the form "fix", "fixed 2", "add test", "new var" and on and on. You took an hour to make the change, take a damn minute to save some future colleague a day of frustration.
Nice unit economics:
Our Connected Fitness Subscriber Lifetime Value for fiscal 2017, fiscal 2018, and fiscal 2019, was $267.1 million, $604.4 million, and $1,053.8 million, respectively, or $3,433, $4,015, and $3,593 per Connected Fitness Subscriber, respectively.

As we expand our content offering, develop new interactive software features, and grow our community of Members, we believe we can maintain a low Average Net Monthly Connected Fitness Churn, resulting in a high Connected Fitness Subscriber Lifetime Value. In addition, with the growth of our Connected Fitness Subscriber base over time, we expect to improve our Subscription Contribution Margin as we scale our fixed content production costs.

Net Customer Acquisition Cost (profit) can be calculated as Adjusted Sales and Marketing Expense (which excludes depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense) less Adjusted Connected Fitness Product Gross Profit (which excludes depreciation and amortization expense and stock-based compensation expense). Our Net Customer Acquisition Costs (profit) for fiscal 2017, fiscal 2018, and fiscal 2019, was $14.2 million, $(4.9) million, and $1.6 million, respectively, or $183, $(33), and $5 per Connected Fitness Subscriber added, respectively. We believe we will continue to drive rapid payback and efficiencies in Net Customer Acquisition Costs (profit) by further leveraging sales and marketing investments as a result of heightened brand awareness and growing word-of-mouth referrals. Changes in Connected Fitness Product margins or sales and marketing expenses may result in an inability to fully offset our customer acquisition costs.
I’ve been a BeOS fan since R4.5, and a couple of years ago started working on a Haiku native video/media editor (a couple of hours development per month, since its hard to find much free time).

Its generally a very pleasant desktop experience, still love the xray folder navigation system and clear file system hierarchy. The inter window IPC mechanism is a ‘accidental’ actor model API, in C++98 pre std standard.

Could you compare this to eBay's distributed triple store https://github.com/eBay/akutan ?

Looks like it is written in Go too. I can see your's being much simpler to get up and running initially though. Looks like akutan isn't as simple since its built on docker and is a daemon.

Sybase’s database code is doing quite well, in its perfectly-legal descendant, Microsoft SQL Server (Microsoft partnered with Sybase—and Ashton-Tate—on porting Sybase’s software to OS/2 in a deal that included Microsoft getting exclusive rights to make the database on x86 shortly after its first release, and when the deal ended Microsoft kept the rights to continue developing and marketing the database, though Sybase was then also allowed to enter the x86 market.)

This isn’t something more research will solve. Metals exist in ores as oxides. To get pure metal you have to reduce them, and that oxygen had to go somewhere, bound to something. There is no net zero process that will magic away those pesky atoms.
According to Wikipedia [1] her PhD was about "use of metaphor in shaping experiments in experimental biology". This is not what I'd call biology proper. You can have a look at it: it was later published as a book "Crystals, Fabrics, and Fields" which is available online [2]. I'm not sure how [2] makes her a "highly credentialed biologist" (in the same sense that "Structure of Scientific Revolutions" doesn't make Kuhn a highly credentialed physicist).

Given how expensive a bike is, I imagine their market being even smaller than the apple iPhone market and a subscription-based health system can arguably be as important to someone as an iPhone, but it doesn't really have that "i want that" shine that iPhone does. I imagine they'll see a lot of growth short term and taper off really soon maybe after 6 years.
Elsewhere this is referred to as "jitter". Most systems with regular schedules are built without it and eventually, many will grow into facemelting hordes.
Equally interesting - have you read the research that (dis)credits handwriting analysis, or you just unquestionably accept that it's nonsense?

There are some funny things in the Risk Factors section:

“We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and if our remediation of such material weaknesses is not effective, or if we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable laws and regulations could be impaired.”

That is defining monopoly in a very constrained way. You might as well be complaining that USPS having a monopoly over delivering watch fobs. FedEx isn't trying to capture the $0.55 letter delivery market.
Seems like standard boilerplate.
The question as commonly understood is asking about your family geographical/cultural heritage. Your family heritage is constant. So unless new information has come to light recently or you're really confused about your heritage, I don't think it makes sense to be changing your ethnicity/race on a daily basis.

One could feel Asian because you're in a Chinese immersion program speaking Chinese 24/7, but if you don't have any ancestors from Asia more recent than Ghengis Khan, you can't really self-identify as Asian for the purposes of the question as commonly understood. It's not like one's family heritage changes if one's circumstances change.
Do these concepts even make sense at the temperature of the sun?
Under the risks section:

"We derive a significant majority of our revenue from sales of our Bike and a decline in sales of our Bike would negatively affect our future revenue and operating results;"

What many people don't know is that you can access all their classes using your own exercise bike and their apps, paying a little over 1/4 of the normal monthly subscription fee. The limitations of this approach is that you don't get to participate in the leader-board gamification of your workout, and your bike won't have the integrated sensors to tie your output back into their app, but for a fraction of the price of both the bike and the service, it's a good way to either test out their service to determine whether it's something you're into, or to permanantly utilize most of their product at a fraction of the cost.
Ok, but please don't attack others or call names in arguments or post unsubstantive comments here.

This seems to be one of those “poster child” projects for Julia. As in there are likely lots of custom primitives or numerical routine that’d be impossible to have perform well in Python/Numpy but still saving development effort over coding a custom C++ case (much less C++ expertise needed to do so).
This reminds me of an idea I've been meaning to get to for the longest time, this sequence of exercises would make a great mini-ctf, it would require the addition of a story to motivate it, and an endpoint to provide responses that would contain information to link to the next step. I was planning to do an interactive introduction to the git commands in this style but this topic would work well too. I think it would work well as a medium for self serve training.
Can confirm , in my 20s and it feels like the interal pressure to create something gets greater everyday.

Nextcloud is really cool. A coworker had initially set it up for an in-house place for our team to store more sensitive things that we didn't want floating around on confluence or google docs. It didn't last long. The legal team didn't like the AGPL license and we had to abandon the project. Too bad really, the interface is very nice and the file level encryption was a big plus.
