I don't mean to distract from your main point, but IMO the only betrayal was by the NSA/CIA. Snowden was simply upholding his civic responsibilities.
> A digital signal processor does computations, therefore it’s a computer... right?

Yes, absolutely it is. Just like how Babbage's difference engine was a computer, just like how a calculator is a computer. It's not a stored-program Von-Neumann turing complete thing, no, but that's clearly not the point - if you want one of those, wouldn't you just go to Intel et al?

The point of the D-Wave machine is to make super specialized optimization functions fast. Most of us, myself included, barely understand what those are or why they're useful. People interested in ML and neural networks, on the other hand, may find a processor designed intrinsically to work on entire graphs at a time to be somewhat useful. Maybe it's not big enough to do that yet, but ENIAC wasn't big enough to run Firefox - was it useless?

Attacking the messenger because you have no rebuttal. Also, it is ridiculous reading comments that have the sentence structure of a person still in primary school.

My wife and I will have been married 10 years in a week, and we met in EverQuest. Unfortunately, I don't keep in contact with anyone else we hung out with back then.

I've tried to go back, to EQ or other MMOs, and they're much harder to get a group of friends from now. You used to see the same people in your server, sometimes meeting them multiple times as you leveled through the game. They became known to you and even friends. The changes to make the game more open to solo players and with more instancing you just don't run into the same people more than once anymore.
Both posts use the same hyperbole of a DDoS on open source projects and it hurts both posts.

Dealing with spam is a pain, it's annoying and it being somewhat incentivized doesn't really help. But claiming that it's a huge load of work and pretending that maintainers are drowning in spam pull requests is also very ridiculous.

If you don't have the time to close a bunch of pull requests, then maybe it's time you get someone additional onto the project that can help you out. Ask the last few people that have made high quality PRs or maybe just helped with something small, whether they're interested in helping out more.

Stop whining of how hard the life of an OSS maintainer is and invite others to help you out.
I'm presuming that he was referring to the IEDs of Italy's "Years of Lead" referenced directly in the article.

Parallel clamps are the result of hundreds of years of research into developing a clamp even less intuitive than handscrews. I love 'em, but man are they a hassle when the head doesn't engage the bar.

Pipe clamps are comparatively cheaper with the bonus that if you need longer clamps, you can go to the plumbing supply for a longer bit of pipe. They aren't as nice as parallel clamps for gluing up thin panels though.

For handscrews, I highly recommend Miro Moose. The Besseys are surprisingly subpar. Lie-Nielsen makes them as well for a reasonable price, but they galvanize the screws, and I don't like the action as much.

I can attest that drywall work and mudding is definitely an acquired skill. No matter how many youtube videos you watch it takes practice.
The problem with Python isn't that it has reference cycles. It's that it has a tracing GC that tries to automagically fix those cycles for you. So in C++, if you get a cycle, the destructors do not run at all - which is pretty noticeable. In Python, they run "sometime later", so programmers are less inclined to fix the cycles (indeed, many aren't even aware that it's a problem).

But if you provide a non-deterministic mechanism on top of refcounting to break the cycles, and destructors aren't consistently deterministic already, why even bother with refcounting at all?
People are acting like you shouldn't be allowed to quit your job because you don't like your coworkers?
I've heard of similar situations and I'm glad people with the power to help lift others up are taking the initiative.

George Taylor (previously President of Untappd) has been working with active gang members to start a brewery called TruColors.

It does complicated matters if you're capturing command output in logfiles or an editor.

In my scripts, I just check for unset term and/or use tput to get the sequences (which honors TERM=dumb)

one example:

col_ok=`tput bold; tput setaf 7; tput setab 2`
col_fail=`tput bold; tput setaf 7; tput setab 1`
col_end=`tput sgr0`

echo "${col_fail} ERROR: it failed ${col_end}"

so running the script gives me colorized output (xterm-256color),
but running it like this:

TERM=dumb <script>

gives plain text
IANAL but a "final judgement" at District Court level merely means the end of the proceedings at the District Court level. From the District Court level, you have the right to an appeal to the relevant Circuit Court of Appeal. (By contrast, you don't have the right to an appeal from the Circuit Court level to the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court gets to decide which appeals it wants to hear and only a small minority get accepted.)

Not A Satellite Labs | Co-Founders (Marketing/Sales + Computer Vision) | Remote (U.S.) | https://notasatellite.com

We're building the world's first real-time map using a network of cameras aboard 60,000+ daily commercial flights. Our approach lets us gather thousands of times more data at a fraction of the operational cost of building, launching, and maintaining satellite constellations. Our competitors advertise daily revisit rates; we've demonstrated 1,500+ updates on a single coordinate in early tests using only cell phone cameras at an average resolution of 20cm.

I've been building the prototype and handling early-stage product market fit exercises as a solo founder, but now we're actively raising with the help of an excellent advisory team. I'm looking to bring on co-founders who can help run the growth machine and assist me with development of the video ingestion engine in a GTM capacity. We currently have 248 customer commitments running on a negligible burn (~$100/month for feeler ads, ~$400/mo for cloud compute) and have begun the patent filing process.

If you'd like to hear more about the business concept, current challenges, the product roadmap, or just want to chat about GIS, shoot me an email (chris@notasatellite.com) or check us out @notasatellite.

I mean, you're right he should act on China, a lefty Liberal like me agrees, he promised to do so, and he has all the reasons you listed plus more. So why hasn't he?

Because he has no interest in doing anything, he's not committed to any actual policy, except for whatever suits him right now. And that's the real danger: soft power works sometimes, hard power works sometimes, "I'll give you whatever you want if you leave me alone and let me build a hotel" doesn't work (except for building hotels).

That's the issue here. Trump is pro trump. He not an isolationist except if (claims of) isolationism forward the trump self service agenda. He'd be a leftist internationalist pro-china stogge if he thought he'd make a buck or get a vote more doing that.

Yet people refuse to see this obvious, data driven conclusion...
It's mostly the same in Denmark. However, there is one situation where background checks are mandatory and that is when you work with children below the age of 15. You have to pass this check not only for a proper job but also if you are doing volunteer work with children (e.g. sports association, scouts etc.)

The check is only for crimes against children so you can be convicted for violent crimes and pass this check.

Any entries in your criminal record will no longer appear in background checks after some time (depending on the severity of your offense). However, any offense against a child will always appear on this special background check no matter how long ago it was committed.

You have to approve that this background check is performed but if you can't produce a clean "child certificate" then you are prohibited from working with children by law.
I stopped using it a year or two ago (I thought it jumped the shark). I looked a the front page the other day. Do they hide comments until you log in? They seemed to fade off like the WSJ paywall.
>> All of the ingredients in mass-produced bread exist to improve the quality of the product.

Nothing in mass-produced anything exists to improve quality. The economics of mass-production only work if quality is reduced with respect to small-scale production. Because when you mass-produce something, you want to sell it to as many people as possible. And in order to sell something to as many people as possible, you have to make it as cheap as possible, or most people won't buy it. But, to make something cheap you have to reduce its quality, because good quality costs a lot of money - and if you're mass-producing something you have real low margins because you're counting on selling as much of it as possible to make a profit, so you have to choose the cheapest ingredients. And so quality goes out the window.
At WhatsApp we had a bunch of mnesia-backed services. I can't say that it was the best experience. Pretty much anything non-trivial, such as healing a cluster after a partition, or expanding a cluster, or cross-DC replication was a complete PITA to do properly. There's also very few people that have operational experience with it and very little documentation about it compared to pretty much any other storage engine.

The main benefit was the ability to load and store Erlang terms natively, along with the fact that it's just a library. The fact that your compute is colocated with your storage lends itself to a different architecture than when you use, say, a stateless web service in front of a relational database.

(Edit: I realize now that I'm replying to a WA old-timer so I'd be curious to know what your assessment of mnesia is with the benefit of hindsight.)
I absolutely love pipe clamps. They still provide a lot of clamping pressure but are significantly cheaper than parallel bar clamps. And if you need a longer clamp all you need to do is go buy a longer piece of pipe
>Trivially, you can show this by pointing to the fact that science branched off of "it".

This doesn't hold. Chemistry branched off of alchemy, this doesn't make alchemy real or more fundamental than chemistry.

>But more relevantly, if you can't clearly organize your thoughts into a coherent perspective or think critically and draw logical conclusions, you can't follow the scientific method in the first place. Nobody can.

The scientific method cannot draw conclusions. In practice it's mostly used to establish correlations only. When used in attempt to directly prove something it can only do so to a statistical degree and can never in actuality arrive at a "conclusion" that one can arrive at with logic.

I'm just saying that the description I wrote above has nothing to do with the ethics of the death penalty which philosophy places as more "fundamental." I mean if you're saying philosophy is the study of anything and everything then yes it is more fundamental, but as blurry as they are, the boundaries of what philosophy encompasses are way more limited than "everything." I am saying that the boundaries are also arbitrary and biased and therefore not more fundamental than science.

This runs into the problem that the power efficiency of analogue circuitry is dramatically worse. A FET dissipates the least heat when it's fully on or fully off. Operating in the resistive regime will result in orders of magnitude more dissipation.

It's difficult to over-come that, particularly because it's not a comparison between 'analogue v 64-bit float', but 'analogue versus 8-bit int'. (it's tough for scale analogue circuits to operate even when 8-bit accuracy).
If you're dealing with a C++98 or C++03 codebase, you can literally remove every mention of "auto" in it without changing the meaning of the code.
Or they have better governments.

When the problems in Detroit and LA subside maybe I would be with you on this point.

What I want is an app that can actually navigate the menu system to get a live person for me. Could try "0" or "#" to see if that works first, and get more complicated from there. If the call drops in the process, should be able to call back to keep trying.

That process is the most frustrating part for me. I'm already able to put my phone on speaker and do something else during the hold part. It's getting to the hold that is the most maddening.

Could even have an optional cloud-backed version that memorizes common companies' phone trees.
Is there any evidence that the sentences are longer after controlling for variables such as (1) differences in previous convictions which increase sentence duration, (2) severity of the crime?

If this evidence is provided, I am happy to agree with you that there is systematic racism in the justice system.
I see we've narrowed your definition of "fake bread" down to "bread that's different from the bread I prefer to eat".

Also, just to point out a factual error. Most of the sliced bread in the supermarket is sold the same day it’s baked. The added shelf life is so that it lasts longer once you’ve taken it home.

I personally love to bake, but I don’t bake bread that often because I can’t eat a loaf of homemade bread before it goes stale.

As a Chrome extension, does it only support recording websites, not native apps? I'm saddened that "for developers" is used to mean "for web developers" nowadays...
That depends. During the 19th Century, judgement (with an 'e') became more popular in British writing and is now the common form used in British English. In legal contexts (in Britain), judgment (without an 'e') is the proper spelling. This spelling is also the dominant form in the United States.

Thus, perhaps the author of the press release is British.
I immensely prefer USB-C to any of the alternatives.
How does this compare to https://www.loom.com ?
In the US, judgement can be spelled with or without that first e. Judgmental however must have only a single e.
The reconstructions drop the barrier of otherness, which greatly diminishes the value of the old footage as a historical lesson for the masses.

I think you make a very important point. I watched lots of silent movies as well as historical footage growing up, and the jerky motion and slow frame rates gave them a cartoonish quality that I still find artistically endearing but which makes history less real to the viewer. For historical figures one admires, it confers a sort of mythic aura, and for ones you don't it makes them seem clownish or misshapen. This impacts written history too, where it's already hard to separate our posterior knowledge of how things turned out from the historical figures of whom we have a visually distorted mental image.

I watched a historical series on WW2 where the imagery was colorized and somewhat stabilized/cleaned up a year or so ago and was struck by the different perspective it offered without all the 'emotional blurring' that occurs due to the technical limitations of the time. It was much easier to relate to events, both good and bad, through a 'happening now' frame of reference that would have been closer to what people experienced at the time, when newsreel footage offered immediacy and accuracy that was new and modern.

No doubt in the future there will be debates over whether HD and 4k footage of today and the recent past should be given the full VR treatment, allowing people to experience current events from the point of view of the participants and so forth.
Paul Sellers' book is worth a buy as well. It's a good reference on not only the use, but also the care and feeding of pretty much all of the core hand tools, with pictures.
I think that term described pretty well what he's instituted.

Judgement is actually a common and accepted spelling of judgment, either is fine. I know this because I erroneously corrected it on Wikipedia in the fairly distant past. :)
