This depends on how you look at financing and budgeting (duh). But Firefly III was originally designed to lower your running expenses. It doesn't feature a lot cool budget automation because that leads to more charts but less money.

The original idea was to make it hard (or at least with some friction) to create transactions. This also excluded any way of importing data. That way you feel your transactions twice. Once when you spend the money, and twice when you have to enter it.

Making you finances tangible is a very good way of spending less money. Importing all your shit just gives GIGO but with nicer graphics.

But budget rollover isn't a bad idea at all and it could fit what Firefly III is doing at the moment. I'll make sure to think of a way to implement it.
Thank you. Highly recommended. It's probably the most intellectually satisfying podcast I've ever listened to.

Faraday is a wrapper around several libraries, no? I needed more features that these libraries could offer, namely HTTP/2 support, brotli compression, timings for the requests (namelookup time, tls handshake time, connect time, etc..). Faraday and Net:HTTP is fine if you're doing simple HTTP requests.
Interesting comparison.

Burning Man is managed as an ongoing emergency, and has a 24/7 multi-disciplinary team responding to and triaging incidents as they arise.

Essentially Burning Man is a disaster that's been intentionally paused just before a tragedy. It's kept at that point by some very coordinated and talented people.

> the state of WYSIWYG editors in Rails is so unacceptably poor

Rails is a web framework. Why does it have anything to do with a WYSIWYG editor on the frontend? There's a giant vast offering of WYSIWYG editors to choose from that POST data back to your web backend just like any other form. I don't want rails to have any opinion or "state" of WYSIWYG selection for my application.

I kinda feel like Rails had it's heyday around 3.2 or 4.0 and since then has been creating problems to solve instead of solving actual popular use cases.

Honestly, I think Elon came off pretty badly. One the one hand you have someone who’s first language isn’t English but is basically giving a long, hard to prepare for, interview on topics he openly admits he’s not a subject expert on; and on the other hand you have a smug individual who’s first language is English and who is actually making fun of the first guy.

Often their disagreements are more cultural divides (remember Chinese culture and philosophy is radically different from the kind of ideologies held in Silicon Valley) rather than technical mismatches. However that doesn’t stop Musk poking fun at Jack.

I think it’s also worth remembering that Musk has a very high opinion of himself. Some of it is deserved but he is also wrong as often as he is right. So he’s in no position to be making fun of others on stage; let alone for their cultural differences. But I guess that’s always been Musks behaviour (if you take a look at some of the stuff he posts on a Twitter).
You guys missing the bigger picture. Uber didn't fail in Southeast Asia. The competition was so steep that Uber and Grab were losing a lot of money through aggressive marketing. I know how aggressive they were as I'm from Malaysia. So, Uber and Grab came to an agreement, where Uber sold off their business to Grab for 27.5% stake and a seat on the board. It have nothing to do with talent. It's pure business. Instead of lose-lose situation, they created a win-win situation for both.
Some are too cynical but pretty funny.

As a recent inductee to silicon-valley-ese I found it odd and funny how often people were "excited" about something.
They aren't alleging anything accused here.

One of epstein's victims said that they were directed to offer Minsky sex ( https://twitter.com/_cryptome_/status/1159946492871938048 ... and yes, I did indeed look before sharing the link to Benford's comment, did you look before spreading defamatory conjecture? ). That's it, wrt Minsky. They didn't say they did offer it (though a third party did). They didn't say they had sex with minsky. They didn't say Minsky or other guests knew they were underage, or that minsky knew they were involved in prostitution.

Beyond repeated proximity to epstein there has been no specific allegation of wrongdoing by Minsky that I've seen, but there seems to be plenty in the imaginations of the posters here.

Maybe it turns out those things happened but if they had you would expect them to have been mentioned in the allegations. Maybe they'll be alleged later-- nothing wrong with that. Until they're at least alleged, however, I think it's pretty absurd, and frankly extremely unethical, to just assume them out of absolutely nothing. Hell, if there was a victim saying "Minsky was a really bad man" I would have said nothing about the further speculation, it's only the utterly reckless outright fabrication from peoples perverted imaginations that I thought deserved any rebuke.
I'd love to see one of these for Australian English, although I don't think it would be possible. Aussies have a love of metaphor a simile that's unmatched in any other dialect of English, especially if you hang out with bogans (basically Australian Rednecks, for lack of a better description). It's basically the opposite of America, where instead of trying to be excessively polite, we try to be excessively offensive. The other habits of Australians are to shorten words down and add an "O" to the end, and to swear excessively.

Here's a couple of my favourites:

"Not here to fuck spiders" => Not here to waste time

"Mad as a cut snake" => Very angry

"Busier than a one armed brickie in Baghdad" => Very busy (a brickie is a bricklayer)

"Built like a brick shithouse" => A large, muscular man

"Crack the shits" => get annoyed

"Dog act" => something done to a friend that's uncalled for, e.g. skipping your round at the pub

"Stitch up" => A scam or a trick

"Sick cunt" => An outstanding person

"Old mate" => Someone who's not your friend

"Smoko" => Morning break at work

"Misso" => Girlfriend (short for missus)

"Ambo" => Paramedic (short for ambulance)

"Servo" => Service Station (gas station for Americans)

"Seppo" => American

"Pokies" => Poker machines

"Yeah nah" => either yes, or no, depending on context. Can also be used as filler in a sentence.

This leads to beautiful sentences, such as:

"Yeah nah, the misso cracked the shits at me 'cause I spent the whole arvo at the pokies"

I've never heard of Americans thinking/saying they were direct. In my case I see our culture as the opposite, as this page seems to demonstrate. Corporate double-speak is a well-known thing here (I presume its similar in many places, but I don't know), and I'm sure most people like me were taught "if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all". A common trope in child programs when I grew up was that being honest but hurtful was "incorrect".

Perhaps subtle cues or assumptions create such imagery of directness for those on the outside? Not that I take issue with your characterization, I just wonder how it came to be.

It wasn't even a coup attempt because no one, but no one, thought of it as such then, as as soon as POTUS was back in town, no one, but no one, challenged his authority. A coup attempt would have ended with the VP in chains or the President deposed.

No, this was an emergency that everyone was unprepared for, so they winged it. And they did alright, even though it was utter chaos. If the President has been at the WH, or in good enough communication with the WH, I'm pretty sure the VP would not have been anything like "in command", though the President might have delegated some authority to him. As it was, POTUS had to get to AF1 first, then in the air, and probably a lot of work had to be done to get connectivity back to the WH makeshift situation room.

You have to go back to Reagan getting shot for something just slightly closer to a coup attempt, when the Secretary State ran around saying he was in charge (but no one gave him the time of day). That must have looked rather strange to a lot of people, but since no one took him seriously, and since it wasn't that long after the JFK assassination, which meant everyone remembered the basic chain of succession, the fact that no one took Alexander seriously was exactly as it should have been. Alexander, however, really had no clue, and showed he was not capable in a crisis.

>The aggregate output of philosophy as a process for negotiating a shared understanding of "what is true and what to do about it" is the foundation upon which societies thoughts rest. If that makes sense?

Can't agree with this. Nothing can be verified to be true. The undertaking is impossible. We can only identify correlations to a degree and causation to a degree.

>we have found that the very foundation we thought was Rock solid doesn't appear to hold for the social sciences.

Science is known not to be rock solid. It is based on statistics which is based on the theory of probability. We use probability to establish correlation to a degree and causation to a degree. But this is based off of the assumption that the set of axioms and theorems from probability theory applies to the real world. It's self referential and unverifiable: By probability, probability is correlated with reality.

The replication crisis is not a philosophical problem but a problem with bias. Research studies are choosing biased samples and making biased observations. We have no indication as of yet that it is pointing to some fundamental flaws in probability.

This is the limit of what we can do. If philosophy purports to go deeper and further, I'll have to disagree.

I've never heard of this language, but it looks like a cross between TypeScript and Java. The "Why Ballerina" points on the front page are intriguing, but none of the other materials seem to fill in the next level of detail. The diagram is the code... so this is a visual language? Where are the example diagrams? The language is built so that it's easy to access a service over a network? Tell me more. Show me something beautiful, dammit. The syntax isn't pretty. And why does every new programming language these days put "getting started" instructions above the fold, but not show you code or otherwise give you something concrete to latch onto?

I'm speechless at the sheer amount of documentation and tooling that already exists. Editor plugins, a code formatter, a style guide, a build tool, a doc tool, a package manager, a package repository, a language spec, a standard library, a framework for writing services, deployment guides, and maybe 200 example programs.

I am a major TypeScript fan and former major JVM fan, and I can see the appeal of mashing them up. I think my problem is that the front page is the only interesting page on the entire site, the only one that gives me some sense of why I might care about this obscure language, let alone use it.

Although Hitler was monumentally stupid. There are numerous stories of how Germany's war effort was undermined by Hitler and his top men making terrible decisions. For example on the night of 5th June 1944 Hitler gave strict instructions not to be woken. As a result he was not told about d day. And due to existing orders the Panza divisions could not be deployed without his approval.

So what about the Holocaust? Well the Nazis believed that the world's was under attack from Jewish and socialist aggression. They believed that it was a massive and imminent existential threat. And that their actions were defending their country and humanity from evil. From this twisted perspective the Nazis actions were logical. They saw themselves as the good guys. The basis for all this evil are a few insanely stupid beliefs.

How does it having been announced a year ago make it utterly legitimate? Jack Ma outright owned the company which was not funded by government money.

> a library used by Notepad++ was compromised for a period of time

Nothing at the referenced URL corroborates how you are representing the referenced URL.

According to the URL, the CIA was replacing one of Notepad++'s components w/ another in order to run code on the user's system and stay hidden. Nothing in that links indicates that that replacement is done through any breach in security in Notepad++ itself, and AFAICT, they're using it merely as a good hiding place. The Notepad++ announcement fixes no particular bugs, but merely signs the code.

As suggested, encapsulate your prediction model in a web service, then calling it from Rails would be a good way to go.

An other way is to use something like Faktory (https://contribsys.com/faktory/) on top of Redis. You push jobs from Rails and then you pull them from Python to execute. Then Python can enqueue another job with the result which gets consumed by Rails (async callback).

Guo Wengui is of course not just a dissident, he's a billionaire (or former billionaire; hard to tell post fleeing China) that the Chinese Government has wanted to force to be returned to the mainland for likely execution or long-term imprisonment (having been accused of just about every crime they could slap him with). Guo Wengui believes the Chinese Government wants to murder him. It's obvious he must be saying something interesting to make China so extremely angry.

Also, the 5.1 series will not receive any future security fixes now that 6.0 is out.

Comments like this are especially funny and dishonest because you, like most Westerners, likely have absolutely no idea what's happening to the Uighurs. Reports of "millions" being forced into camps are pure propaganda. And while China is taking some drastic measures in the region, most Uighurs at this point likely welcome the enhanced investment into the region.

The West' "view of China," like the West's view of the HK situation, is just a fantasy. It has nothing to do with actual evidence, facts or serious research. Like Iraq, the entire narrative is being driven by anonymous sources that do nothing but validate the Western hatred of China.

Only the creative aspects of those collections of facts are copyrightable. You can definitively copy from Google Maps, just like Feist could copy from Rural; what you can't copy are the aspects of the maps that require creativity.

As for trap streets, they don't help as much as you think; as we've seen, simply showing that copying occurred is not enough. There was a theory that the trap streets - since they were invented, not facts - could themselves be copyrighted, but in Alexandria Drafting Co. v. Amsterdam, the courts said that copying a few trap streets among a bunch of facts was too minimal to be considered infringement.
