Maybe you have not considered that to those who view race as sacred and who also view sexuality as sacred, your assertion of bigotry completely ignores the consistency by which they apply their beliefs.

To be against racism is to promote racial differences as purposeful and good. Even if those people of different races don't agree, or are themselves racist.

To be against the promotion of homosexuality is likewise not to be against homosexuals (even if they disagree) but is to promote the differences between sexes as purposeful and good and to promote heterosexual marriage.

We can't change the race we are, but our views of our race, and race in general, are going to vary right? Same with our sex, and our view of sex.

I simply wish to make the case that calling others bigots on the basis of consistent treatment of both race and sex as sacred, and not just race, while not being also a racist yourself... Reveals inconsistency.

Vellum is more expensive than paper.

The cheap alternative to bound books were pamphlets, generally stitched, and often comprised of a single sheet of folded paper.

An octavo pamphlet could run 16 pages (8 impressions per side). I don't know if longer materials (32 - 64 pages) were produced, though I suspect these were printed on multiple pages.

Thomas Paine's Agrarian Justice, a 32-page pamphlet, has printers marks for four sides ('B', 'C', and 'D' noted on pages 9, 17, 25, respectively), as an example, which would likely correspond to two double-sided octavo signatures:

Coincidently I just started working on a drawing app, specifically an iPad app with figure drawing as the main use case. If you could share more details on the kind of drawing you'd like to allow it'd be easier to help. In general, as others said, there's a big difference between vector and raster based drawing apps. In vector drawings, you need to capture the mouse/pen/touch input and fit the points to a bezier curve (google "An algorithm for automatically fitting digitized curves"). Then you have a bunch of bezier-curve objects and draw them to the screen, any 2D graphics library will support this. Raster based drawings are more tricky, you usually paint with a brush, which is a bitmap that gets blended to the existing drawing, possibly affected by the input (pressure, angle, etc.). Here your focus is on performing graphics operations efficiently, as there are many of them per second, and they should appear to occur in real-time. A GPU is very helpful to this kind of drawing.

Another big aspect of this sort of app is undo/redo support. Again it's gonna be different between vector and raster, but I find that in any undo-supporting app, figuring out how the undo mechanism will work can guide the rest of the software design quite effectively, so give that a thought.

If you're willing to share more details here I could probably help more concretely.

That number is unfortunately high enough for me to think that this is equatable to a small credential breach.

Look Inside: How Huawei Manages Its Workforce
Hello fellow south australian! I agree completely with everything you said.

One thing you left out though is the very real possibility of an electricity utility death spiral, as the (wilfully) rising grid costs combine with obligation of supply and the declining cost of solar self-sufficiency meet on an economic collision course.

The cost of a tesla powerwall in SA right now is about $10k. One or two of these combined with an average size roof PV array will run you about AUD$20-30k. For people used to a quarterly power bill of $1k+ this is an absolute no-brainer. Even if you don't have the money up front it's an easy loan that simply pays itself off, then it's nothing but upside.

Right now that payback period is 5-10 years but as the tech progresses that will decrease. Once the price tag to substantially remove electricity bills from your life reaches $10k or so everyone will do it and the utilities are fucked. Hell, I can envisage neighbourhood power co-ops. I know someone with so much extra power they have no idea what to do with it. They air condition their garage 24/7!

Perhaps a startup opportunity there coordinating and organising "local sourced" power. There would be hardware involved but I know at least 5 people who would love to be able to sell power to their neighbours. Someone just needs to remove all the friction.

It won't go anywhere, Tensorflow for Swift only exists because of Chris Lattner.

Many researchers work on Windows, Swift has zero support there and when asked about it, they just kind of invite the Swift community to provide support.

So zero interest from either Apple or Google to make it work on Windows.

This is the latest status of Swift on Windows,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zjlxa1NIfJc

Then on Linux, Foundation support is still flaky, for basic stuff one still needs to do conditional compilation and directly import either Darwin or GLibc modules.

Swift is just like Objective-C, yes you can kind of use it outside Apple's ecosytem, but at expense of productivity and lack of adequate tooling.

Really I don't expect Tensorflow for Swift to ever reach mainstream adoption, maybe Google can sell it as Mac only and thus announce the project has having been a success.

Creator here. I built Bookly to solve my own problem. I work as an engineer in a start-up with some really driven people with a passion for reading and self-improvement and entrepreneurship. We were constantly recommending and lending books to each other but there was no easy way to keep track of who owned which book, which books we loaned to others and which books were available to borrow. I was originally just going to create a Slack channel but thought it would get messy and hard to find things, and so Bookly was born.

The app is built in NodeJS and took me 4 months to build, the last month was mainly getting the website, assets and copy ready. It uses Firestore as a DB which is now my goto solution for getting backend up and running quickly (shortcomings just far outweigh everything else because of familiarity and speed).

I originally used just cloud functions for the Slack API web hook calls but they absolutely SUCK for Slack bots - Do. Not. Use. Them! Slack has a 3 second response timeout for web hooks and on a cold start I found it constantly timing out. Great if you have enough users to keep them always running but infuriating when traffic is small. They're also painful to debug. Running Node locally with Slack web hooks calling through Ngrok was such a pleasure to work with. I probably wasted 3 weeks trying to make cloud functions work.

Most popular books added so far have been programming books. Not really surprised, I think this bot will appeal to a certain self-improvement personality type. Who knows though, I may be pleasantly surprised with more fiction books added in the future.

Happy to answer any questions on building Slack bots. Only my first bot but they have really good resources and tools on their site, and the API has come a long way in the past couple of years. Also welcome feedback, this is what I consider the bare minimum product to make it usable so still a lot to add.

> complex solutions

Puzzles aren't really about that. It's about making a model of a problem and finding solutions to it. Complex solutions are as bad in puzzles as in any other area. Not sure what you mean by "clever" (maybe "clever" as in unreadable code). Sometimes you come to an aha moment and realise that you can solve something in a trivial way, aka clever way, and that's a desirable event.
Indeed. I'm trying to find a suitable vendor here in Germany (as a small software making business), but all I can find (when I look for Ryzen powered PCs) are small local dealers - with usually very mixed reviews and questionable support. I always got Dell, and while I would not want to rely on their support for any software issues, at least whenever we had trouble with hardware I could get that replaced easily and quickly. Those smaller dealers don't even have any decent bundled support options, and no guarantees similar to what I can get from the "big guys". The reviews accordingly show a lot of variation and randomness (basically, all those who have no issues with their purchase give five stars, but of those needing support, even if it is for issues clearly caused by the vendor, have a good chance of telling a nightmare support story).

So while I still want a Ryzen PC, I also want five years of 24 hour hardware support, and I feel more confident to get that from Dell rather than from some small local dealer for whom any support issue is a big deal for their own bottom line and where employees are under more pressure than those working for a big vendor. The big ones still are "Intel only" - apart from >$2,000 gaming PCs (I usually buy ca. $1,000 PCs with minimal graphics card, videos only (hardware accelerated decoding is nice to have; but too much of a card costs too much energy for no reason, even base energy when not in gaming mode is much higher - GTX 1050Ti using just motherboard energy is perfect, as an example), no gaming ever, but good components and large RAM and SSD, for developers).

PS: Any Germans here who found a solution for needs such as mine?
> I've never understood why that is important?

On appliances with a physical on-off switch, it's best to have the switch as close as possible to the cable, and on the 'hot' side. If there's a fault (wire touching the metal case) then the appliance is still safe with the switch 'off'.

Nowadays, I think everything would have double-pole switches anyway.

I'm still waiting for "Steam for TV series/Films". I've always felt that that approach would work better as we're unlikely to get a single streaming service with "most content" akin to music streaming". The model works well for distributing games and doesn't have any of the deal breaking problems that you listed (well except for it going out of business, but should not be a problem as long as you have access to the files). I can't really see a reason why it would not work for films or TV series.

Just provide something that isn't worse than torrents and reasonably priced and I'll happily buy the content I'm interested in.
Ownership and sovereignty are different, but very much dependent on each other. Sovereignty literally means the ability to unilaterally determine what rules and rights shall apply and what rights won't, to define what's legal for that land and people.

You have rights to property, life and liberty essentially because the local constitutional law asserts that these rights are the law of the land - and it's worth to note that the basic set of unalienable constitutional rights is quite different in different sovereign countries, some things are almost universal, but there's a lot of differences. If sovereignty changes hands (e.g. if Australia would be conquered by USSR in a weird alternate history), then it's perfectly plausible for the new sovereign to assert that people like larnmar can't have any property rights, and all real estate is now the property of someone else - and that would be entirely legal, because they get to define legality.
