This isn't a direct response to you, but moreso to this thread. There are some who are in on the joke and have even found quite a bit of humor in it, but no longer find that humor useful. It's like an old joke which was hilarious and insightful at one point but has been told too many times to remain interesting.

I for one tend to envy those who either don't know or don't care. Being cynical seemed cool and somehow "smarter" for some time, and then eventually it can, for some, seem just as naive.

I'd rather look at life earnestly. Yes, it's all fucked and we've no control over it. Society is a fiction, etc. But I'd rather love my wife, do work I enjoy, and not point out the absurdity all day every day to myself and others, because it's just an old stupid joke to which we _all_ happen to be the punchline.

I had hoped to see a comment like this about Vice higher up. I find that their content is usually insubstantial, and when it is otherwise, facts are presented or omitted staggeringly skewed fashion for maximum emotional engagement. In short, if you want to feel strongly about misinformation and partial-truths, Vice is the outlet for you.

to me that translates as "WARNING! TRAP!" because I may decide I like your thing, and then my users may decide they like _my_ thing, and then suddenly I find out what your price is for my scale and "oh shit! I'm going to go broke OR have to recode everything"

ESPECIALLY since this would become a key part of the infrastructure / how my app gets its stuff done. Replacing your service with a competitor or something homebrew would be a major pain, especially when I find myself unexpectedly popular.

there is NO WAY I would ever use or recommend a service that refuses to tell me what my potential long term costs are up front.

It's too much of a gamble with a business or worse, a hobby project that isn't making me any money to compensate for this unexpected "balloon payment".

I thought I saw a chart where it was the second-most-accepted coin, but I couldn't find it, so I may be wrong.

I did find a chart where it is the 4th most accepted after BTC, LTC, and ETH.

I imagine those other coins are more accepted because they have larger network effects. I also imagine that Monero's network will grow even more as it becomes more developed.

Judge people by their output. If someone is performing well and shipping, then it doesn't matter if that takes 10 minutes or 8 hours. Many people work better with a lot of space. If you fill someone's hopper so they're forced to work 8 hours a day, then you'll quickly find the tasks that used to take them 10 minutes to complete now take multiple hours due to: burn out, stress, context switching and most likely bad management.

> This is only the case if the schools are bad because of the students going to them.

Presumably the good schools got good because they're in rich neighborhoods where the parents pour time and money into the schools. If their kids are going to a wider variety of schools now, the rich parents will have incentive to make all the schools good.
Possibly, but there is another angle here. WeWork isn’t really a tech or realestate company, but a financial instrument to be propped up and then dumped into the lap of late investors or the market, so that early investors can run away with a nice profit. The IPO attempt failed. Now they need time for people to forget, so the financial instrument can be repackaged and sold to some gullible private investors a bit later. SoftBank will get new shares significantly cheaper than the older ones, and as long as they can keep the patient on life support long enough for someone else to believe in it, the whole game will pay off nicely. Probably a few years though, waiting for the next wave.

> I made eye contact with a homeless person pooping again today. This has become a regular part of life in the United States.

I think you mean "This has become a regular part of life in the city I live in." That is so outside of regular life in the vast majority of the USA that I can't comprehend seeing it once.

In what city is that an actual regular part of life?
Neutrally overstimmed and negatively stimmed are different though! If you’re just neutrally overstimmed you can find a quiet corner, another room with less noise and fewer people, or hang out on the porch. Negatively stimmed you won’t be able to be in or around the place at all. Depression or anxiety is a “general” upset, whereas overstimmed is a “local” upset.

I assume you want to use a text interface rather than a voice interface?

Do you have any constraints on the programming language you'll use? I'm going to assume that you'll be okay using Python in my answer.

If you were looking in to a voice interface, I'd highly recommend checking out "Designing Voice User Interfaces: Principles of Conversational Experiences" by Cathy Pearl[0], but you should know it's not really a how-to guide for hackers, but a set of principles for designing the interface/what the user experience should be like.

For text-based interfaces, there appear to be a few similar books, but I haven't read any of them and can't recommend them. For example, see "Designing Chatbots: Creating Conversational Experiences" by Amir Shevat.[1]

For the technical/implementation side of things, I'd recommend that you start searching using search terms like NLP and NLU, rather than "chatbot" on its own. A great place to start is with a toolkit like Rasa or spaCy for Python and look up some tutorials on how to use them.

If the chatbot is quite basic, I'd recommend starting with bare spaCy and using the built-in models. A tutorial like this should get you started: https://apps.worldwritable.com/tutorials/chatbot/

If the required bot is a little more involved, you can use Rasa NLU as well. Check out this tutorial for an example: https://towardsdatascience.com/building-a-conversational-cha...

Are there any particular things that you know your chatbot will need to be able to do? Extract and recognize product names in the user's response? Handle ambiguity/anaphora resolution? Respond correctly to commands and questions from the user? The behaviors you want from your bot will help shape how you go about building it, so if you can give me a better idea of what you need, I can give you more specific advice on that front.

It's perfectly safe to pick any mushroom. You can take them home, take a spore print, dry them, and carefully identify them with the help of the internet at your leisure.

All that's important is that you know not to eat them until you've done so.

And when you do think you've identified them, and want to eat them, first eat a small amount just to play it safe.

Picking mushrooms is not playing Russian roulette. It's completely harmless, no mushroom kills you on contact, you're being ridiculous.

It's actually a quite fun hobby to forage and collect mushrooms when in season, take them home and try classify them. Even if you just throw them all away afterwards. In the process you've dispersed their spores too.
CIELab is not perfect, but is probably Good Enough, especially for the kinds of use cases as described in this article. One of its main flaws is lack of hue constancy, particularly in blue.

There are any number of colorspaces that have been proposed that are better. Some are complex and ad hoc, such as two different releases of CIECAM. Others are relatively simple, such as Jzazbz. IPT also comes up a lot. I think the issue is that there isn't anything resembling consensus on which of these "more perceptually uniform" color spaces we should use. So a bunch of efforts, including freieFarbe, use Lab.
Houston, like many American cities, massively subsidizes sprawl and an auto-centric (or auto-only) lifestyle. They may not have zoning, but they do have things like parking minimums throughout much of the city. And in their favor, it is a place where many people can afford to live, something that can't be said of places like the San Francisco bay area.

Where I lived in Italy, I could walk to:

* My kids' schools

* A small grocery store

* A cafe

* A takeout pizza place

* Our doctor

* A tram stop

* A small park

With a bike, many more places were within easy reach. How many places in the US allow so many different things so close together?

> Hackers use "bisq" which is a decentralized exchange to get around this problem.

How does "bisq" provide anonymity to its users? If you're trading BTC, your wallets are still being connected to each other and provably written into the blockchain for all of eternity. Same with Ethereum and other "mainstream" cryptocoins.

If the FBI only cares about "anonymous" coins, like Monero, and ONLY targets those, then all payment processors would "taint" Monero wallets (or any BTC coins which ever touched a Monero-related wallet), and refuse to process them.

Its really not that hard for Monero (or any other minority-coin) to be shut out of the payment processor market and relegated to black-market goods.

I’ve seen small teams with microservices succeed but not in the speed at which these things promise to return value. I’ve also seen developers fail when they’ve churned out microservice after micro service and couldn’t keep up with the deployment and infrastructure overheads. As an architect I’ve recommended against some of these but what do I know. I’ve just recently asked for a service on a project and they said microservice, and then suddenly I need Orchestration and scheduling. Btw I think k8s has its place I’m not against.

I have seen services architected and deployed beautifully, http, tcp, MQ based, event driven, Ive designed and deployed services as windows services, and Linux based web services, http, API. Seen WCF, XML, rest, json, MQ, messaging across multiple stacks and technologies but I won’t back 90% of new apps feauturing microservices, more like 1 or 2 service endpoints, when what we actually need is governance and thought in these designs. Sometimes a service is a service but doesn’t need early optimisation. Think about decoupling and domains by all means but don’t jump into the next framework marketed at you.

This correlates well with human language access times for nouns vs verbs.

"Here, we study naturalistic speech from linguistically and culturally diverse populations from around the world. We show a robust tendency for slower speech before nouns as compared with verbs. Even though verbs may be more complex than nouns, nouns thus appear to require more planning, probably due to the new information they usually represent."

No, you're guessing that because you live in a world that's been designed for cars for 50 years, so you naturally see it as the most convenient option -- because it's been designed that way. Even in NYC.

Design cities for people first and not automobiles and you'll be asking why anyone would take a car over a train/bus/bike because it's more expensive, takes longer, and is more of a hassle.
I hope I'm not spamming when posting this, but this is exactly what we're trying to solve at Out Of Office with "Work Clubs" [0]

We've spoken with thousands of remote workers in the last 2 years and the one recurring theme we kept hearing about was loneliness. We're testing out this Work Club concept as a way for remote workers to get together and work together throughout the day. It's a low-friction way to meet people during your work day, while still getting your work done.

We've seen a lot of positive initial feedback and want to continue trying it out in new cities.

Isn't the USA empty enough that you could still start such a city today?
> But I actually like that different teams can mix a lot easier.

I've heard this claim for open offices a lot. I never understand it. It's not like I'm AGAINST easy collaboration. But I spend (or try to spend) more time on my own, and everyone "collaborating" around me and expecting that I can turn off my peripheral vision and hearing with a brain that is hardwired to NOT ignore those things just makes the majority of my time worse.

Plus, in the last 20 years and 5 companies (spanning 8 offices if you count office moves) I've never had adequate meeting room space (defined as: We need a space to spontaneously talk without disturbing others, can we find it trivially?) for more than a 3 month span after moving to a larger building. Hardly scientifically conclusive, but personally persuasive.

So I'm all for collaboration between people, including between teams, but I don't understand sacrificing the REST of the time in the name of that one thing.
To test that this argument doesn't work, consider introducing a 400 ms delay on your keystrokes. Writing will still be the least time consuming task. Then compare with code you write without the delay. I have a reasonable hypothesis how the test will turn out.
Vendors that are aiming at a split workflow, with a free tier and a paid tier usually have some set paid tiers and then a “contact us” for beyond that. For example, Slack gives you prices for the Standard and Support plans, and then lets enterprises contact them for negotiating prices. The problem with Pipedream is that non-enterprise customers will want to use their so-called enterprise plan.

Yes, and almost everywhere else in the US has even worse transport, and it costs us five times as much to build it as Europe. Which is why the idea of banning cars in the US pretty much anywhere outside of Manhattan and maybe a few downtown roads is fanciful.
