Particularly for airports, prices for licensed taxies are usually regulated to be within a very narrow, predictable range. Opening up the Uber app, the estimated price for an UberX to SFO from my current location is $47.30, which is almost exactly what a taxi would be--$45-50 in this part of the city. Licensed taxis are, at least to some extent, a deliberately planned component of the public transportation infrastructure.

And as I about to post this, the price for UberX changed to $49.80. Thanks for the illustration, Uber.

It's not that hiring managers are using the words incorrectly. It's that their predictions about their own future behaviour are wrong. They think they'll have a lot of applicants, and hope that they'll reduce their own workload by helping the lower-quality candidates self-select out of the process, or maybe getting HR to do it for them.

In practice it doesn't work that way. There aren't that many applicants, and none of them are exactly what the requirements specify. So they have to do the work of really understanding a candidate's skill set and experience, and then sketch out the onboarding and training that would be required to get them up to speed. Which is fine, because there aren't clear-cut predictors for success at these sorts of jobs anyway.
Not a compiler engineer, but I'd suggest taking a look at JavaScript JITs as well, which often have interesting solutions for making a poorly-typed language run fast on modern hardware.
The 85% capacity benchmark seems pretty arbitrary to me. I'd imagine most owners very rarely use more than 85% of their range (or at least, could avoid doing so easily) at which point 85% isn't "needs expensive battery replacement", it's just "slightly less range buffer". I imagine in 20 years' time we'll see plenty of old beaters, student cars etc. with 50% or less range that are still quite happily driving around.
Yeah, it all depends. I certainly don't want people buzzing me with their drone when I'm out enjoying nature with my kids. As a result, when I take my drone out, I am very certain to be far from others, and not to bug them. By default, in our state, drones are not permitted in any state park, however I have flown in a state park in our state by getting permission two times (one told me no the first time, then said ok when I asked if they could make an exception since I'm FAA certified, fly very responsibly, etc).

There seems to be a need for an I'm-not-a-douche-bag certification that can be used to make exceptions for folks like myself. I try hard not just to be responsible, but also not be a douche bag with my drone.

You're making a false comparison here.

Vinyl, when stored properly, will be fine. Yes, they suffer from wear and tear when used frequently, but you would have to use it quite a lot for that to happen.

CDs, even when stored properly, never used and still wrapped, will suffer from disc rot due to quality issues. This renders them completely unplayable. Calling CDs objectively more durable ignores that there were A LOT of poorly made CDs which have a considerably shorter lifespan.
Todoist is currently the best option out there. I have a Premium subscription and recommend it to everyone, in spite of the free alternatives (which on my campus includes MS To-Do, since Office 365 is provided for free).

Having said that, it's not perfect. You need to be prepared for some frustrating bugs in the web app. That includes having been unable to log in on my laptop for several days. Todoist gets updated too frequently relative to the ability to test for and identify bugs. Finding that a pile of my tasks were marked done was not a moment of joy, and having items scheduled for the wrong day wasn't a great experience either. That Todoist is easily the best option is a function of the low quality and excessive prices of the competition.

GRSecurity is violating the GPL, and thus violating the linux programmers copyrights, as Bruce Perens explained:
https://linux.slashdot.org/story/17/07/09/188246/bruce-peren...

http://perens.com/blog/2017/06/28/warning-grsecurity-potenti...

Brad Spengler / PaxTeam / GRSecurity have no right to modify the linux code nor redistribute derivative works of it thusly.

Placing a "no redistribution or else" clause in a "separate writing" does not absolve one from the requirement NOT to stymie the linux programmer's stipulation in their license that such restrictions NOT be created by distributees or those who have created derivative works.

The linux programmers should sue Spengler, or simply revoke his license (another option: gratis licenses are freely revocable: they are not secured by an interest, and as-far-as-we-know Spengler has not payed the linux licensors for a license).
We used to have a turntable stereo that was mono with one speaker built into a console that had a wooden lid on it on top so it could be closed and we used it as a computer monitor holder. My nephews stole my vinyl records inside of it. It was damaged in a flood and we never replaced it.

Turntables these days are expensive, but worth it for the vinyl experience.

Because if that’s what we did then no need to worry about getting back to the Stone Age, we would have never left it anyway... Man’s ability to dream, imagine and explore the unknown both physically and intellectually is what got us where we are.
"which is unrealistic even in this era of low interest rates"

What? It doesn't seem unrealistic to me. Interest rates are increasingly negative in nominal terms, but much more frequently near zero or negative in real terms. Even in the US, 5 year real rates have averaged around zero from 2010 to present.[1]

It would be nice if scientists and philosophers worked closer together. These days a scientist's understanding of the scientific method is usually a bowdlerized version of Karl Popper's work, as passed down from one scientist to another.

But ideas do tend to filter through eventually, even if most scientists aren't themselves aware of where they came from.

This - enforce carpool lanes and give buses priority access. Immediate positive.

Secondly and more importantly for me (and I know unpopular) - kick off the drunk / other rule-breakers and anyone who threatens people even if its just a result of mental illness. No one wants to start their day next to someone yelling - "I'll f* you up... etc" on a crowded bus. At least where I am the bus drivers don't do anything from small - blasting music -> to larger - nonstop threats of violence.

I have only small anecdotes but other places seem to empower the drivers etc more. And the jitney cabs in the Caribbean would flat out leave people on the side of the road if they were sloppy drunk.
They are blatantly violating the copyrights of the linux licensors, as far as we know. The linux licensors should sue.

Another option is to simply revoke the license: Brad Spengler has (as far as we know) a gratis (free) license from the many linux licensors.

Such a license is NOT secured: it's similar to a gratis property license where one can have their permission to use land ended at any time by the property owner (in this case the linux licensors (copyright holders).

According to the GPL text itself: the license has been withdrawn upon violation (note: with a gratis license a violation is /not/ required for revocation: the licensor can simply /decide/ he doesn't want you to continue using his property. A paid GPL license would be an example of a non-gratis free-software license situation where the licensees "rights" are secured and irrevocable (generally), a gratis free-software license simply extends /requirements/ onto the licensee and no /duties/ upon the licensor)

Sorry, didn't see the reply until now. I have a nothing special bird-feeder, but two things make it harder for squirrels to get to:
1) it is suspended, from high above, by a rope around a tree branch; it is high enough that they cannot jump up to it from below (well, it is high enough now, anyway, since I saw them doing that)
2) just above the bird feeder is a dome, with a hole in the center, through which the rope passes. There is a stick which the rope is tied around, which keeps the dome just above the bird feeder. If the squirrel climbs down the rope from above, the dome keeps them from getting to the bird feeder.

The average American watches three hours of television a day. The only countries with higher GDP per capita are city states or comparable to US metro areas and if you look at the better measure of average individual consumption the US beats literally everyone despite being most of a continent and 1/20 of the world’s population. If the average American lacks time and money I struggle to describe living standards in the UK or Malaysia.

In the bay area, there was an express bus line from my town straight into downtown San Francisco. I could work through my whole commute (as I had a seat and a laptop), not worry about traffic or deal with road rage, and was filled with a wide variety of people.

If each community added their own similar route, I wouldn't be surprised if rush hour traffic was noticably impacted.

That is not a "work around". That is a BLATANT in-writing VIOLATION of the no-restrictions-on-redistribution clause GRSecurity MUST follow in-order to have the PERMISSION to create derivative works.

BLATANTLY. In Writing.

Commerce Clause. Although it certainly might be overturned by an unfriendly Supreme Court, it's sort of a gray area.

A parallel might be drawn to the concealed carry reciprocity act (https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/69) currently pending in Congress, in the sense that it would also prevent state and local jurisdictions from enforcing local regulations against individuals who met some Congressional standard (in that case, that they were registered for concealed carry in their place of residence). Constitutional scholars don't have a firm answer for that bill's constitutionality because it's sort of a unique proposed application of Commerce Clause power.

Redhat distributes it's sources to everyone, thus making any violation of the no-restrictions-on-redistribution clause acedemic to the linux copyright holders who would be the claimants.

GRSecurity successfully prevents redistribution: it's violation is blatant and NOT academic.

A court can be shown the attempt and it's successful conclusion.

Quite different in substance from RedHat's possible violation.

I mean, owning a car is still a form of conforming to social norms - cars are expensive and people have good jobs to afford them (which begins an awkward feedback loop of requirements).

"The thing I hate about buses in many cities is that they take longer than driving to get somewhere."

In my experience they take within a few minutes of walking somewhere, and perhaps three times as long as bicycling, never mind driving.

Perhaps someone will say that this indicates my local bus system is terrible, but I don't see what could be improved about it. If they want to serve the people who actually ride the bus, they have to go on routes with riders, and stop at all the places people want to get on and off.

But I've tried riding the bus on trips ranging from <1 mi, to 3.5 miles, to 6-10 miles, and there's just no point, except in the case where I need to go get my car and I have no alternative (or if I didn't own a car). For a longer trip, it means sacrificing an entire evening for what would be a 10-15 minute trip going directly.

For the longest trips (>6 miles) which coincide with a single route, the bus can be substantially faster than walking, but it's still way too long to be a viable commute. And shorter trips are very comparable to walking.

People say or imply that something could be different that would make a typical bus system in a US city more effective for people who have alternatives, but what?

The idea of the bus being "more convenient" with a few tweaks seems wildly implausible to me based on my experience.
justinjlynn: Yes, they are violating the copyright license. Yes they should be sued.

Perens and his lawyers are correct.
There are several things that can be done without too harsh of consequences that it'd need a watertight due process.

First is positive reinforcement, let people "upvote" others for good driving etiquette, then give the top 0.1% or whatever a special decal to display on their plate, or a special plate. Fakes are enforced by when, if you're ever pulled over, the officer looks up whether you were entitled to that decal and then a hefty fine if you faked it. Or maybe even officers just randomly noting down the plates to later check if it was legit, can even enforce it via existing traffic rules enforcement cameras and in both cases, fines are imposed like redlight cameras do now. Maybe even allow the driver to share the designation with their insurance company which may decide to reduce their rates.

Another way would be to send some nastygrams via snail mail to the worst 1% or so, "you were voted the worst 1% of drivers by your peers". However without any other negative consequences, this might be gamed i.e "I'm so badass that I got this letter", leading to some people trying to get those letters. Since the tagging is by car, maybe give access to the insurance companies to the very worst offending cars to raise the rates for insurance on that _car_, not the driver associated with it, since someone else could be driving it.
