This is so laughably wrong as to be absurd. Your explanation for Canadian telecom entrenchment and protectionism is that it's anti-American? Canada and its provinces have imported America's love of faux-competition in media, telecom, electricity, non-health insurance, and other areas nearly whole hog.

Anti-Americanism also runs contrary to Canada's: plans to imprison more of its population; paying extra for ill-performing military hardware; treating its First Nations like shit; increasing gap between rich and poor; busting of unions; beating the hell out of protestors; resisting all meaningful measures against climate change; and fighting pointless wars.

Canada could use some of this "we're different from the Americans" attitude that you claim pervades the nation. Sadly, I don't see much evidence of it in any of several areas of society, especially the telecom industry.

Ycombi test
I can think of a few.

If there are problems found with screen (and it's a widely used admin tool that may be left running on remote servers, hence a high-value attack vector), it's going to be harder to find and fix the problem.

If there are features to be added, they'll be harder to add to screen than tmux. Which means that with time, tmux stands a higher chance of becoming more featureful.

Both argue in favor of tmux in the long run, though there's no immediate need to ditch screen. As you note, screen's very widely available, which is a feature. Then again, so was telnet 10 years ago.
Hypothesis: Best digital experiences replicate human conversations
I really agree with chrisdroukas, I had no idea I would be sharing my public folder until after I'd already approved the permissions and poked around.

Also when it comes to deciding if I want to share my public folder it would be nice if you could list what's in my public folder for me. I had to go check.
FWIW, I've switched to tmux but think tmux's implementation of split screen is broken and desperately miss screen's.

Screen lets each part of a split screen select a different existing window. Tmux makes both parts of a split part of a single window, so you can either have two things going in one split, or have something else going on in another window, but if you suddenly decide you want two existing windows side by side, you can't do it.

I've manually removed the app via dropbox.com yet my public dropbox items are still visible and downloadable.

This is really a problem since it wasn't made all that clear to me what I was authorizing in the first place

Public dropbox folders still operate on some security through obscurity. Previously you could access files but only if you had the link. Allowing these items to be indexed removes that security so it should be made extremely clear what's going on.

Now this is interesting. When I read about awesome brogrammers working on the next hip web app with a cutesy hipster name, my eyes glaze over. But you guys are really ENGINEERS, and doing something with massive value.

I am a bit surprised that coders can actually get a job at such a place, I would have thought you only hired like aerodynamic physics professors or whatever. Maybe you could go into more detail about what you do at work and what kind of people get hired? :)

At the end of the day I have no respect for a person who cannot take the time to learn CS Basics...If a technical guy can read Steve Blank,Clayton Christensen,Hayek and Friedman....a non-techie can definitely read The Art of Computer Programming if he intends to run a software business.....coming up with nonsensical excuses will not help!..Here are some common excuses.

1) I need to have a degree in Engineering

Well not really...Myself and all the best programmers I have known have learnt very little from educational institutions than they have from man pages.

2) Little Knowledge can be dangerous

Yes...it can be but noone is asking you to be en expert....by learning the basics you will only begin to understand the complexity of the problems being solved and will learn when to open your mouth and when not to...saying things like "lets move to the cloud" or "lets do this in an agile manner" without having a clue only makes you look bad!

3) It is not my cup of tea.

Noone is asking you to become Linus Torvalds...at least try to know as much as some kid in high school would...If you dont have the thirst for knowledge to begin with,you are in the wrong business!
Emacs for Sysadmins
That counters different articles on the same topic, not the telegraph article. Nowhere did the telegraph article say that water itself was called bad, just that the dehydration statement could not be made.

Also part of that article is logically unsound in the opposite direction. A significant amount of water is well more than a measuring cup full. Eating a pork pie does help prevent starvation, how could you disagree? It's a nitpick to complain that water only helps hypertonic and isotonic dehydration, the most common kinds.

Edit: just read the linked pdf and t-winsnes's comment. I'm astounded that none on the articles reporting on this, especially the guardian article specifically written to debunk the drama, noticed that this is a rejection of the statement as a disease claim. Dehydration not counting as a disease means labels don't need approval under this regulation.

Edit 2: huh, a downvote. I don't mind it but would you kindly give me a sentence why, whoever voted so? I'm not sure what I've done wrong.

Using pull requests requires stakeholders to review each amendment, and coupling it with github accounts gives a level of accountability that a wordpress blog wouldn't have, in my opinion. It really isn't that difficult to fork the blog and issue a pull request; you could even do it completely within the github gui if need be.

Move the file from your top-level Public folder into a (sub) folder within your Public folder.

I'm inspired by this man's dreams and the way he's striving for it, even though the end goal is decades off.

Musk makes no secret of the end goal: Create a new civilization on Mars. Speaking at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., in September, he outlined the business plan—if that’s the right term for something that looks decades into the future. “If you can reduce the cost of moving to Mars to around the cost of a middle class home in California—maybe to around half a million dollars—then I think enough people would buy a ticket and move to Mars,” he said. “You obviously have to have quite an appetite for risk and adventure. But there are seven billion people on Earth now, and there’ll be probably eight billion by the midpoint of the century. So even if one in a million people decided to do that, that’s still eight thousand people. And I think probably more than one in a million people will decide to do that.”

Random, half-baked thought:

Set up a blog with 10 participants. Each person writes/curates for 1-3 days and then hands on responsibility. Any AdSense revenue from the site is split by randomly displaying account holder AdSense IDs. A contributor must complete one cycle before their ID joins the ad display pool.

Motivation for writing is enforced to some degree by swapping out a writer if they fail to contribute during their period of responsibility for the blog.

Encourage writers to queue up ideas or entries to cover for being stumped or busy when their time comes.

The films are incredibly subtle. Jedi and Sith represent the allegorical extremes of human nature for Lucas, in the same way the Republic and Empire represent idealized democratic and authoritarian societies.

The reason the author sees "psychopathy" as a common trait is that the first three films show ostensibly good characters morphing into bad ones as they embrace violence and deceit as a means to an end (ending a trade dispute, fighting terrorists, etc.). There is complex manipulation of the same symbolic imagery Lucas uses in his original films (water, caves), sometimes to the point of sequences going over-the-top: the transformation of C3PO from protocol to battle droid in a hell sequence marking the end of the second film is a commentary on what is happening to the rest of the characters, who also abandon diplomacy for "aggressive negotiation".

The Jedi are not unambiguously good by the end of film III. They are harbingers of war ("there is no war here unless you have brought it with you") who die marching into battle. Now, the films may not be as emotionally engaging as their predecessors, but they are leagues more subtle than almost anything else you see in cinemas, as evidenced by the fact that Lucas made an anti-war film a blockbuster at a time when American society was broadly supportive of imperialism and military vengeance. As I remember, it wasn't until Anakin explicitly began aping Bush/Jesus in the final film ("you're either with me or against me") that anyone really seemed to notice the political agenda.

I agree it sounds weird at first. On second thought, whether or not it is so strange depends on one means by "flight computers". For example, for something like logging or pre-flight checks the exact timing would matter that much, and it would be convenient to have a full blown OS. When timing matters (e.g. flight control?), I imagine that one could set up controllers (with their own CPUs and straight to the metal programming of the sort you described) as devices that accept commands from and stream data to the primary flight computer. This is %100 speculation. I would be curious to know what kind of temporal precision is needed for rocket control, since if it is a sloppy enough process then all this worrying about timing it for nought.
Yeah, I was referring more to the eggs/basket issue. Beyond that, though, I think there's a lot more to be gained from colonizing worlds than digging into the earth. One is pushing outward, the other is retreating inward, and is very much a dead end.

Absolutely.

Stalin's and Communist Party's goal was to "free the world of capitalist oppression", had US not had built a Nuke, Russians would not have stopped at Berlin.

The Russians were hit hard in WW2 but still in 1945 they were in far better position than any other Eurasian state. They would have swept over Europe in a single campaign if they could. And even Americans would be hard pressed at stopping them, without the nuclear weapons since US would be heavily tied in pacific dealing with Japan. And it wouldn't take a strategic genius to fathom an alliance between Japan and USSR, Soviets take the Europe, Japanese take the Asia.

Don't forget that in 1945 Russians were already all over Germany, they took Vienna, Yugoslavia was under their direct influence. Without US and their display of might in Pacific, there would be nothing preventing them from taking the Europe, and Stalin knew it.

That's probably why Soviets kinda kept a low profile for until the 1949.

Louis Vuitton Prefall 2010
A couple years ago, when I was at a previous employer, I was lamenting the typical corporate frustrations to a friend. The executives seemed to have a new "strategy" every quarter. All our projects had unrealistically given deadlines. Even when we successfully released a new product, it was basically DOA, because they were never things we would use ourselves. It was basically impossible to pivot our aging flagship product, because it has grown so complex that it was impossible to get any more incremental gains without a huge commitment in resources. At least once a month I'd be asked, "Well can we make this change to the product quickly?" and I would always say, "No. There are no quick changes anymore. You can either commit the staff to getting the product back into a state where we can do quick changes again (ie. refactoring some of it), or you can just put the product in maintenance mode and have the staff do something else." And yet no matter how many times I explained why, using as many MBA-friendly concepts and analogies as possible, they never understood.

My friend asked if any of the executives and managers had an engineering background, and I literally laughed out loud. Of course they didn't. If they did, they would have understood concepts in this article. Instead they were exactly like that political douchebag in The Wire video.

One of my greatest hopes for the current proliferation of startups is that some of the technical talent there actually does end up as leaders corporate America. I see the fundamental problem of corporations led by execs with the classic MBA-educated, McKinsey/Bain-trained background is they've never created or produced a damn thing in their lives, and just fundamentally don't understand why their decisions are so dysfunctional.

It sounds like you're implying:

a) This strategy (the co-op model) is overwhelmingly likely to fail
b) But every once in a great while, it will succeed
c) And some random fluke for whom it succeeded will think it's a great idea and write a blog post like this one, so
d) The existence of this blog post is not strong evidence against a)

However, given this scenario, we would expect the distribution of S (number of successful projects a given person started under the co-op model) to be heavily peaked at 0, with a few outliers at 1, and falling to ~0 at 2. This author has started three successful projects under the co-op model, suggesting that this is not just survivor bias -- the right sort of person can, at least occasionally, find success under this model.
