Those are some really dirty rules - to have the company sanction the transfer of its own securities. In principle it should be the other way around (i.e. shareholders decide what the company does, not company decides what shareholders do). Do you have examples of such contracts?
It is, including the author of this post. Unlike other controversial things like systemd or pulseaudio, Wayland was started by major Xorg contributors. I've watched some of their talks and can see why they went down this route.

I've tired Wayland a few times and whenever I do, I give it an honest shot for a few weeks, but tend to run into issues (Sway being pretty buggy or oddities with old X apps or Steam, etc.) I've heard Sway has gotten a lot better and I should really try it out again; probably the next time I setup a laptop.

I do wonder what plans FreeBSD and OpenBSD have for the future. Currently they main their own Xorg trees, but I wonder if we'll ever see Wayland implemented on other platforms.
You're straw-manning my argument. Worrying about how easy it is to recycle of windmill blades is akin to worrying about how to recycle oil tankers. Not completely irrelevant, but so close as to be a joke.

The point I'm trying to make here is that wind turbines are so much better than the status quo, which is quite literally killing us, that it's not worth fretting over one of their smallest drawbacks. They have much larger drawbacks to address first. Fretting over the little things takes your limited attention away from more important things and you end up worse off overall. That's a (my) philosophy for life in general, and I stand by it.
Makes me think of this talk by Richard Feynman talking about magnets how do they work.

Here's the thing. I can correct this, but it won't change the facts. It will just make me ignore the reality, and get more into hanging out with people and distract from the very things Ecclesiastes and Seneca write about.
If the conventional explosives around a warhead go off in an uncontrolled manner then they are almost certainly not going to kick off a nuclear chain reaction. Things have to happen at a very specific time.

But what you're going to get is a massive plume of weapons grade plutonium flying in all directions. Depending on where this happens and the wind this could be the end of a few million people.

This is a symptom of something. While it is not easy to identify a specific underlying cause, I think if you’re not socialized at a young age in how to make friends or you don’t come from a large, extended family, it is nearly impossible to make meaningful relationships with others. Hobbies and social clubs are fine, but they can be transactional and transitory. Even with your spouse and kids and their friends/family, these relationships can be transactional. You’ll have a hard time communicating beyond words, sharing at a higher level.
Not all of them are applicable, the platform has also been used for forums that connect old-age pensioners homes (it's easy to use), and support networks for victims of domestic sexual and violent abuse in South London.

However the largest example is the London cyclist one https://www.lfgss.com . I started with cycling and the plan was to saturate one sport/recreational interest before branching out. So I run a lot of the cycle forums in the UK, from the Rapha one, through to Islington http://forum.islington.cc/ , Brixton https://forum.brixtoncycles.cc/ tiny clubs like Grupetto https://csgrupetto.microco.sm/

One of the newest is a sustainability forum for a group with a core around Cambridge but spread over the UK https://onething.is/

Some of the forums are private, and I'm fine with that as they can permission it the way they want and pull members from elsewhere as they see fit, i.e. the petrolheads in Cornwall.

Each forum is like a startup itself, they all have to find their first 10 users, then to get to 100 users, and to be aware of the 1% rule of internet culture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%25_rule_(Internet_culture)

But I help nurture and guide, and show them how to do it.

Without funding I've slowed everything down though. It's funded by donations from users across sites today, but expansion risks cost cliffs as I'm just below the threshold for a few services I would need to pay for (auth0 free tier) and don't have time to engineer my way out. With neither time or money spare, it's stagnated.

But if someone wants a startup idea... this does work. Not wildly profitable, but it works.

How did it make money? I'd barely scratched the surface, but conversation around interest contains a lot of intent to purchase, and there are classifieds and meetups. So it's affiliates, a challenge against eBay (people into an interest have emotional attachment to the items and would rather sell to others into the interest), and ticketing for events, etc. And because it's all a platform, one instance, the traditional highs costs associated with running a forum were avoided. Lower costs, and actual revenues :)

I love what I do for work now, but I still believe this was an idea that is good for society.

Discontinuous Ranges in Python
The article makes a case why Wittgenstein is overrated. OP reduced the article to: "Anything that is complicated is not worth understanding," which is disingenuous. The article isn't deep or academic or profound, but isn't deserving of a straw man attack.

And that's my issue with this thread. OP, and now you, are accusing the article of being facile while responding with an obvious claim to a straw man argument. If you want a meaningful discussion, relate it to Wittgenstein, and not some silly "Some things that are complicated are worth investigating" argument that nobody in their right mind would disagree with. If this doesn't seem cogent to you, you've probably been reading too much Wittgenstein.
That's funny. I gave up on Fast Company, and I've never felt better.

The app for getting PDFs onto the device and its telemetry terms are bad (or at least were when I bought the device). Does nothing other than PDFs. Annotations are saved in the PDF itsel and move with the PDF to a PC.

You are illustrating the problem which is that men are “not allowed” to have problems.

There are plenty of things, such as unrealistic body image portrayed by the media, that affect both men and women, yet women claim it exclusively as theirs, because men aren’t supposed to. Can’t men have a thing?
In the latter case, the solution is racism. If the non racial signals are biased against group X, then, when used in the context of those other signals, membership in group X becomes a positive signal, regardless of its independent signal. I believe there was a time when the military did precisly this for black SAT (or simmilar) score, because they found the same score tender to be smarter when it was a black person.

Natural sugars have a completely different effect on your body than refined sugars, plus the fibre in the fruits digests the sugar slower
There are a lot of articles around about how the natural gas boom is releasing methane. So unless that’s all untrue then it’s fair to say it’s increased our emissions. We would have had lower methane emissions if we hadn’t started the shale gas boom and big switch from coal.

So in evaluating coal vs natural gas in the US we commonly see the number quoted that it released 50% less CO2 at the pipe. But we never see the amount of methane included that otherwise wouldn’t be released. I would like to see something that compares the total effect of all greenhouse gases from coal vs natural gas not just the CO2 number. Gas may still be better. But it just obviously wouldn’t be the 50% that everyone loves to quote.
No, it betrays that they're, at best, equally guilty of sitting on a pro-union baseline themselves.

Your description of European trains is rather pessimistic and negative.

UK train network is not perfect, but generally is in a decent state of repair. It does receive large amount of investment regularly (less so under Conservatives but still a significant amount) - and main disruptions of the recent years were caused by either railway worker strikes fighting for their rights or changes to timetables that were too ambitious (because of the amount of new services added to the network).

Yes, the maintenance closures are annoying - but no piece of infrastructure can avoid periodical maintenance. You usually get 6 months' notice and in most cases a diversionary route. In fact even then you could get to Leeds from London via the West Coast mainline and then Transpennine routes. And it certainly didn't affect all travel to the north - depending on how you count them, London has 3 to 5 separate rail routes to there.

The assumption that delays, cancellations, and odd rules are particular to only railways is frankly bizarre. And so is your statement that train travel is considered a second-rate service here - it is all of course highly anecdotal, but on routes that are competitive with local flights (and longer distance routes with high speed trains) - trains are usually considered to be the better option (although that might have something to do with the never-ending cost saving drive by the airlines).

Your particular example of travel from Brussels to Lyon is also incorrect now, as French railways recently introduced direct high-speed services avoiding Paris (and building even more tracks for that). Crossing Paris old-style involves a Metropolitain trip, but that is not an unusual problem for most places (Boston's infamous North-South railway gap comes to mind).

I have experience with Amtrak, UK, French, and German railways - and I don't think I ever saw Amtrak tickets cheaper - unless you are comparing them to some last-minute train tickets on over-subscribed services in Europe. In fact I was under a distinct impression of Amtrak being noticeably pricier.

And finally, railway redundancy in US is typically way worse - Amtrak doesn't own most of the tracks it runs on and is treated as a second class citizen there. And any contingency route is likely to be untested and not ready for use due to cost-cutting. And apart from North East Corridor most of Amtrak routes are double track only, shared with freight.

How You Give Your 1000%
The ML programming language is known for its advanced module system. First, you have structured, which are your traditional idea of a module. Structures define types and data. Signatures describe the interface of a module and are like the module's "type." By making types abstract or not mentioning members, signatures achieve encapsulation of modules. Finally, you have functors, which are functions from modules to modules. The parameter is constrained by a signature, and the client can pass any module that conforms to the signature to get an output module that uses the passed module in its implementation.

The module system is used when a type must support certain operations. For example, the Set module (https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/libref/Set.html) defines a signature called OrderedType for types equipped with a comparison function, and any module that implements OrderedType can be used to make a set.

Notably, ML modules differ from Haskell typeclasses because more than one module can exist for the same combination of types. However, you must pass ML modules explicitly, whereas typeclass instances are passed implicitly. So, ML modules have more power than typeclasses, but at the cost of convenience.

Here is an example where modules are used to make a set:

module LtInt = struct
type t = int
(* Use built-in polymorphic comparison *)
let compare = compare
end

module GtInt = struct
type t = int
let compare lhs rhs = compare rhs lhs
end

module LtIntSet = Set.Make(LtInt)

module GtIntSet = Set.Make(GtInt)

However, modules can quickly get inconvenient:

module type Monoid = sig
type t
val op : t -> t -> t
val e : t
end

module Addition = struct
type t = int
let op = (+)
let e = 0
end

module Multiplication = struct
type t = int
let op = ( * )
let e = 1
end

module FoldLeft (M : Monoid) = struct
let fold_left = List.fold_left M.op M.e
end

Here, it's probably less verbose to just pass the operation and starting value directly to List.fold_left than to use modules! Debatably, this is as equally inconvenient as Haskell's newtype solution to multiple instances, but if there is only one instance, typeclasses are much cleaner to use.

Modular implicits are a long-awaited feature that will allow ML modules to be passed implicitly.

They would be usable if the world's entire data (websites etc) would be stored as data (without any visual information) in classified databases and the interface would query the said databases. Then you would be working with streams of data and the UI would work as a set of filters, manipulated by the user in accordance with the desired outcome.

This would work similar to the UI in Oblivion and the interface to do the above would somewhat resemble it.
There's a trick around this which is called a forward contract. It's a contract that basically says you agree to transfer the stock in the future when you're able to do so, and in exchange you get cash now. It's almost like a loan, in a way, except the principal isn't due until the shares are liquid.
Unfortunately for the cross-country routes they already have pricing -- for the sleeping berths -- that's airline first class level, with service that's nearly indistinguishable from just having a bucket seat. One of the few "perks" was...wait for it...meals in the dining car.
He is talking about the UK. There is a huge bias against single males here.

To give one example: the number and size of tax benefits aimed at families is massive. Spending on these is something like £33bn...that may or may not sound huge to you but the total NHS budget (i.e. healthcare costs for 70-80m people) is ~£115bn.

Not everyone thinks this. But it is definitely far to say that is the general view (and it is why Daily Mail skews female, which basically doesn't happen with right-wing news outside the UK).

"Can we say what diet is best for health? If diet denotes a very specific set of rigid principles, then even this necessarily limited representation of a vast literature is more than sufficient to answer with a decisive no. If, however, by diet we mean a more general dietary pattern, a less rigid set of guiding principles, the answer reverts to an equally decisive yes.

"The aggregation of evidence in support of (a) diets comprising preferentially minimally processed foods direct from nature and food made up of such ingredients, (b) diets comprising mostly plants, and (c) diets in which animal foods are themselves the products, directly or ultimately, of pure plant foods—the composition of animal flesh and milk is as much influenced by diet as we are (31)—is noteworthy for its breadth, depth, diversity of methods, and consistency of findings. The case that we should, indeed, eat true food, mostly plants, is all but incontrovertible. Perhaps fortuitously, this same dietary theme offers considerable advantages to other species, the environment around us, and even the ecology within us (136)."

I've been debating buying remarkable but wonder how reMarkable reading experience compares to Sony 13 inchers?

My favorite e-ink e-reader(I own several from 5inches to 13inches) by far is the original Sony DPT-S1.

It is so light for 13 inches (about 350g) and the software experience for PDFs is fantastic.

Sure it would rock to have ePub support, but Calibre can take care of that.

Sony made some questionable design choices with DPT-RP1 foregoing regular USB tethering for one and disabling of the anemic web browser which was no big loss but still was an option for emergencies.

Emergence of income inequality: Origin, distribution and possible policies
OK, I gave the one-to-many queries a bit more thought, and the converse join query (getting each author with all their books, rather than all books each with their author) works nicely with a GROUP BY:

type authorBookSQL = s.authors.SQL | s.books.SQL;
type authorBookSelectable = s.authors.Selectable & { books: s.books.Selectable };

const
query = db.sql<authorBookSQL>`
SELECT ${"authors"}.*, jsonb_agg(${"books"}.*) AS ${"books"}
FROM ${"books"} JOIN ${"authors"}
ON ${"authors"}.${"id"} = ${"books"}.${"authorId"}
GROUP BY ${"authors"}.${"id"}`,

authorBooks: authorBookSelectable[] = await query.run(db.pool);

This exploits the fact that selecting all fields is, logically enough, permitted when grouping by primary key (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-select.html#SQL-... and https://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/158015/why-can-i-sel...)

a. The AoA disagree alert is standard, not a paid upgrade.

b. The AoA indicator is a paid upgrade.

c. In most 737 MAX's, the disagree alert did not function correctly (did not function as they supposedly intended) unless you bought the paid upgrade for the indicator.

d. Neither the alert nor indicator were considered safety equipment, they were considered advisory.

e. If the alert indicates a caution or warning, it's going to be listed in the flight manual, and decently likely a procedure for understanding and handling that condition must exist, and if so it's going to be a part of a training regimen, the very thing airlines wanted to avoid.

The two changes already planned: decoupling the disagree alert and angle indicator. Upon disagreement, MCAS is disabled. That means the disagree alert is at least cautionary now, because it means the airplane's stall behavior will be different than other 737s. That absolutely will require simulator training for pilots.

One of the most central questions is whether the assessment that the disagree alert was not "safety equipment" was wrong. That MCAS, in an angle of attack disagree condition, can so quickly induce, entirely on its own, catastrophic mistrim at low altitude, is rather damning. It suggests the risk assessment process is flawed.
