If GDP is rising, that should mean output, and therefore sales, and therefore value/marketcap should generally be higher as well. Sure, they don't have to, there are scenarios where they won't, but the two should still be closely correlated over any medium term or longer time span.
Is there even a good reason for the existence of that CSS rule? Browsers should just stop honouring that crap.

I don't completely agree, good quality photo editing, even in this day and age, is not that mainstream. You need a decent amount of skill to edit a good quality picture in a way that won't look obviously fake. Pre-digital-photography it was only possible for skilled people with a significant amount of resources (like the Soviet government, no doubt).

Besides it's one thing to edit a still image and a whole other to forge a long video, complete with audio. Look at those movies these past few years using 3D models to insert younger versions of actors (Terminator and Star Wars come to mind). They must have invested millions into it, they have very talented artists and it's pretty good but it's still quite easy to spot the fakeness of it.
They're not trying to compete with Youtube -- like at all. It's seems like they're going for a closed-network of pre-approved creators with a existing sizable subscription-base. They pretty explicitly said this is a platform you'd be growing your subscriber base on as they have zero interest in providing discoverability.

They basically are just providing a streaming platform for content creators to share their videos with paid subscribers. Kind of like old-school Rooster Teeth as-a-service.

I disagree. If something happens with an apparatus, you fucking shut the hood quick. There is very fast positive pressure air blowing in through the sash opening, the apparatus is bolted into the wall, sashed above the nonglass barrier, and there is negative pressure inside the apparatus, so the tendency is to not leak out but leak in.

If you have a 5% aqueous solution most of that HF is still binary undissociated HF, which will leak into the atmosphere so you could very easily unawaredly be breathing it in if you are working with it in any open air situation below the sash line (which is what the tendency is when you're working with aqueous concoctions).

The orbit of the earth around the sun, and the activity of the sun itself are also possible culprits. I'm sure actual climatologists have a better explanation.
It's hard to remember this in hindsight. Most people didn't understand how the internet worked, and wouldn't have anticipated this.
There are a variety of European climate agencies; depending on what country you live in / are interested in being in, there's:

- UK: Met Office https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/about-us/careers/vacancies)

- France: Institut Pierre Simon Laplace https://www.ipsl.fr/en/ (their job page is busted)

- Germany: Max Planck Institute https://www.mpimet.mpg.de/en/institute/opportunities/

- Netherlands: KNMI https://www.werkenvoornederland.nl/organisaties/ministerie-v...

I'm sure there are more, but these are the ones that I've worked with in the past. European climate research agencies seemed to have their act together a lot better than US ones; before I left the industry, they were much further on the path of moving computation to the commercial cloud (instead of trying to keep up in the supercomputer arms race, which always seemed like a losing proposition to me), and I think ML has been increasingly integrated into climate models as a way to approximate complex dynamical systems.

In terms of which of these labs had their head screwed on straight from a technical side, it was probably KNMI / Met Office, followed by Max Planck and then IPSL.
So why should ICANN hold any such control?

Meh, torrents provide some. They don't handle the different qualities you might want to select for, say, a fast desktop vs a slow mobile connection. They also make controlling distribution much harder.
Here’s the number to keep in mind. A medium-sized cloud datacenter uses about as much power as a single passenger airliner, but emits no carbon. That’s your comparison.

That doesn't make any sense. You can be more confident in one asset than another, yet you should still diversify. In investing, you don't look for that one asset you're most confident in and put all your money into it. If I were a founder, I'd try to convince you to invest in my company, but I wouldn't try to convince you to put all of your money into it. Not putting all of his assets into uber doesn't mean other investors shouldn't put any of their assets into it. After all, it's still 20% of his portfolio, much higher than most of the shareholders, I'd bet.

One might be granted privileges to mount the filesystem using sudo, but not privileges to run other commands.

If the filesystem just mounted has setuid executables, however, the user can then get around their lack of additional sudo privileges by running the setuid executables.

Although most people seem to use sudo to allow a user to run anything, that's really not how it was intended to be used.

Navigational elements, such as a list of clickable links. Gets really annoying when the user is trying to select text, their finger slips and suddenly half the menus on the page are highlighted, and now you need to take into account non-euclidean geometry to get them unhighlighted.
It would be hard (maybe not impossible) to access the DOM in WA without a GC making sure everything is sound, because the DOM and JS (meaning the GC) are very coupled. Currently, JS is used as a mediator between the two - so you do need some JS (but it could well be JS that you never have to write yourself).

I recall one of the spec authors saying in an HN thread that a GC would be added eventually, back in the infancy of WA. I'm not sure if that's still on the cards or if there have been any updates on the subject.

The current USB standards are great for small devices but for anything that requires more power it would be good to have something beefier, something less than the roughly 1500W a standard AC outlet provides but more than the current 15W or 20W of the typical USB port. 5V is just too low and requires a lot of compromise on the device side. I'd probably start with 12V or 24V to keep the current lower. I think there are newer USB ideas to provide something of that sort: https://www.digikey.com/en/articles/techzone/2017/mar/design...
Something not discussed in too much detail here is the role of a mentor/mentee relationship (either direction) and what that looks like for effective learning.

>I know analysing social interactions is seen as a rather, if you will forgive the term, "autistic"

That may be your perception of autism, but this statement is more akin to using "retarded" derogatorily than actually making a comparison. Autism is categorized by deficits in social interaction and repetitive thoughts or behaviorism. "Analyzing social interactions" is certainly not a standard symptom of autism, and depending on the severity of one's social deficit it may not even be possible for someone on the spectrum to do so without the help of a therapist/doctor/behavioral aid. I discovered I was on the spectrum this year, albeit at a relatively low level, and while I personally analyze social interactions a lot due to anxiety it absolutely shouldn't be seen as "rather autistic" as you say as that is a mischaracterization of autism
As in, JS development for browser? You'll still need JS to run WebAssembly in the browser. It'll bury JS in the sense that you are able to develop in any other language like C++, and compile your program to JS+WebAssembly, so you don't need to develop in JS anymore. But JS itself (under the hood) is probably to stay for longer.
One tool is parallel construction. First they find out what you did through an illegal/classified method, then they use the benefit of knowing the answer to construct a way to figure out the same information legally.

For example, an agency illegally taps your phone and find out you'll be driving with something illegal in your car along a certain route. The agency then tells some state troopers to notice $your_car driving unsafely at $location and pull you over for a routine traffic stop and search your car.

It's unlikely they'd take even that risk on a tax case, though.

Yes this is a mistake but to categorically say that HF is scary and dangerous actually creates, in my opinion, a mindset that is detrimental to operator's of safe HF equipment and also encourages use of more wasteful (e.g. FMOC) techniques which also have tradeoffs (nonsynthesiazbility is more of a problem with FMOC than BOC).

And I was clear that setup matters in my gp.
I dont think DC wall socket is the problem - its the small electronics that each have their own power pack.

Ideally to me every led lamp, settop box, alarm clock, phone, laptop would not come with a power supply box. It would just take a USB cable or similar standard. Then you could buy a good quality power supply adapter that you can reuse for lots of products - and avoid the abundance of random adapters everywhere.

Valve turned a huge profit on Portal 2. Yet they refuse to make Portal 3. Why? Because compared to Steam, Portal 2 generates a tiny ROI by comparison.

Option A: invest $1 in Steam and get $10 back

Option B: invest $1 in Portal 3 and get $2 back

which do you do?

Same goes for movie industry. A movie promises returns for decades as it is milked and re-released in various formats. If the movie can only make money for 20-ish years, ROI goes down significantly. Read: "The Disney Vault" [1]

The Strange Case of ‘China’ and Its Top Pisa Rankings
So if I understand correctly:

1. Youtube makes money from ads.

2. Jimquisition is funded from Patreon, and despises ads on his content.

3. To resolve this paradox, Jim has found a way to (allegedly) infringe on multiple parties' copyright

4. Youtube's technology doesn't allow multiple monetizers, and therefore in this situation allows none.

If Jim disagrees with the funding stategy of YouTube, why bother with YouTube at all? Is free riding on youtube video distribution that valuable?

First, congrats! It's rare to have a project be successful so quickly. IMO though, you got a low offer. If I recall from your Reddit post, your MRR had been climbing pretty substantially over the last several months. I'm not sure of your jurisdiction, but after taxes, you'll likely net $60k, which seems low for the kind of app you described, especially with your recent partnerships. But either way it all comes down to your interest in scaling and willingness to invest the time to keep it going.
Except Amazon was cash flow positive but "not profitable" because it was heavily reinvesting in itself. It was making shareholders mad because they wanted that cash back as dividends. Uber is not cash flow positive and not investing in itself near the scale Amazon was, assuming that we are not counting heavily subsidized rides as self investment.

Exactly yes.
Video is massively different for swaying public opinion. There’s a reason most news on Facebook/Instagram is in the form of 15-60 second video montages. People can tune in quickly, get information passively, and leave. Video isn’t just “another item on the list”. It’s the most powerful means of sharing information we have.

How many people do you think actually read those “Killian documents”? How many people do you think a state-sponsored social media campaign built on the most accessible media would reach?
Skip design patterns, I think it locks developers into a sort of religious loyalty towards OOP abstractions. When you understand the pattern it describes you get a sort of catharsis for discovering a new interesting thing. In reality, any of these patterns are just bad despite the cleverness.

Modern programming is heading in a different direction already so it'd be better to move forward without it.
An Introduction to Complex Systems Science and Its Applications
Incorrect. Youtube allows his videos to be on the platform without ads, which he does.

The problem is other parties claiming copyright on his videos, placing ads, and getting the payment from those ads.
It's often a bad idea, but here's some when I used it:

- Widget labels (time, short text, etc)

- Buttons, when text is just an arrow >

(I know, just use <button>) :)

- When double click makes accidental text selection on UI. I had this for a whole page overlay displaying a song's artist and title. (there's another link to the source with selectable text)

- Navigation, but that might be bad too
> Is free riding on youtube video distribution that valuable?

I'd think so. The only reason I ran into him at all was due to YouTube, and I can't help but think that's for the majority of people (minus those who came to him via The Escapist). I don't know how else I would have discovered him, unless we want to rely on convoluted word of mouth.

A segfault is a segfault and for all intents and purposes it's the same regardless of the language you used to make the mistake. If a segfault in Erlang guaranteed that you lost a hand would you want to avoid it?

On the other hand (pun intended) chemicals intrinsically make a burn more or less serious. It's the difference between getting a rash or dying a horrible death.

In a risk matrix the probability has less weight than the severity. So a "catastrophic" severity will make the risk shoot up faster than even "certain" probability. Regardless of tooling and precautions taken the impact of the mistake makes a difference in any field and will make people want to completely steer away from some.

I think it can be summed it up like this: If you were tied to a chair and someone was about to drip something on you what would you rather it be: HCl or ClF3?

I surveyed a ton of translations a few years ago and found Maxwell Staniforth's to be the best balance between readability and fidelity to the original text. Older translations (as is typical of older translations of ancient works) tend to use needlessly "elevated" language, while a lot of newer ones seem to be convinced the Greek is even more simple and informal than it actually is, for whatever reason.
Looks like buzzword marketing bullshit to me. Apparently they're just sending pulsed DC power over Ethernet cables? Nothing else in that article is as new or exciting as they dressed it up to be. GFCI outlets are standard in modern houses, they claim to be safely transmitting "high voltage" but 120V is not, and the "digital" buzzword stinks of marketing.

>It transfers high levels of power over non-power cable

You can't beat physics. Wires heat up from current, regardless of whether it's AC, DC, or "digital" pulsed DC. I doubt Ethernet cable is rated for any significant amount of power, but searching for "cat6 max power" doesn't return any relevant results because search is broken in 2019.

It's also likely to be rather inneffecient, as they are converting from AC to DC and then potentially back to AC? There may be an advantage to pulsing DC but I'm not sure, typically AC is more efficient for power transmission because of lower losses for the same power over distance and higher transformer efficiency (no need for an inverter).
