Its not ambiguous whether he's an officer. The word "officer" is an term of art. It means someone who has official management roles in the corporation, someone who has special fiduciary duties, etc. A VP at Goldman has none of those things.

A good question to ask is: can a VP at Goldman be sued for injuring the corporation through transactions involving a conflict of interest? An officer can, because he has a fiduciary duty to the corporation. An employee does not.

What if I am looking away from the road to read the traffic signs, so I can know what the law is on a particular stretch or in a particular town? What if I am reading the signs of establishments so I can figure out what kinds of services are offered along the route I am traveling? Will I only have x number of seconds to look away before my car obnoxiously suggests "You are tired, pull over soon"? Driving involves a lot more than simply looking at the road. In fact you have to look away from the road constantly to evaluate your surroundings, discover where things are, read traffic signs, check your rear and side view mirrors, watch for vehicles from incoming roads to drive defensively, etc. How is an algorithm supposed to detect the difference between looking away from the road for one of the above mentioned reasons and looking away from the road because I am tired or distracted? It seems to me this technology could be extremely annoying due to false positives. Last thing I want while enjoying scenery on a road trip is some stupid algorithm suggesting to me that I'm tired when I'm wide awake.
I would not be surprised by seeing a Tory split (into the nationalist and libertarian factions), but it would take years - there's a lot of money holding the two halves of their party together. I wouldn't like this outcome much though - it would mean Cameron was the representative of the "nicer party" in British politics.

How to setup free stage for your open source project
The Long View on Apple's A/UX (2010)
We can agree to disagree right? I think using JSX and React components for configuration is a bad match, and plain JS is a much better and more flexible fit. I also suspect that it is a result of eagerness to use the newly-learned hammer for every nail out there, which is a rather common phenomenon when new technologies quickly rise in popularity.

You, on the other hand, think it's neat. That's fine.

I was planning to use socket.io with the same stack (Python, Flask) for a game development project last year. Figured that the Python ports of socket.io weren't well-maintained so I took the traditional approach with Comet(Long-polling).
On another note, if you're interested in Socket.IO because of WebSockets then do know that Android 4.3 and older don't support WebSockets and so the server might need to support Long-polling anyway. It might actually introduce more lag to first check for websockets, and if unavailable, fall back to long-polling. I will wait till majority of target devices support it by default.

I mean, they've explicitly disclaimed that this is version 1.0, but they've also explicitly claimed that this is complete, which it doesn't seem to me. This spec is extremely repetitive (0-3 spaces is okay, 4 spaces is too much) and doesn't actually follow a "top-down" approach which would resolve things like precedence. What they've released is something more like a testing suite.

Even more troubling, they skipped the chance for some basic innovations which will probably ultimately result in a Standard Markdown 2 spec. So, for example, they are defining Markdown as a mapping to HTML, rather than a mapping to an internal tree structure which can then be serialized to HTML.[1] If you make that change in perspective, then you can have Markdown for other languages too: not just HTML but also literate code in an arbitrary language, for example.

Another innovation which should probably work its way into Markdown as it becomes more of a file format is metadata. It's a little hard to remember, but acceptable metadata tagging was one of the killer features of MP3s, leading ultimately to their global rise. We don't have a good metadata expression for text files, and Markdown's embedded link references are, essentially, a sort of metadata already. Do this before it gets to the W3C so that we can start off a document with a simple

@author: Chris Drost

because once the W3C gets a hold of it that's likely to become something more messy like:

@author[http://www.w3.org/TR/markdown/2/] "Chris\u00a0Drost"

Another nice change would be an implementation-dependent $extra sigil$ for inline text.[2] Some LaTeX math sites use Markdown with precisely this extension for inline equations; it might be nice to say "this is mapped to a $ node, but the meaning of that is dependent on the tree-reader; the HTML reader simply prepends and appends a literal dollar sign to the text without embedding it in a tag."

[1] This isn't a huge change in the language but it's a huge change in perspective. The main decision needed to fix this is to say that the "embedded HTML blocks" should have a special sigil at the beginning which is not the < character of the first tag; those "raw" blocks are then held separately in the Markdown tree, and the serializer to HTML passes the raw blocks through without HTML escaping or embedding in another tag.]

[2] Why not just use backticks? We could, of course. One problem here though is that there is no good way to distinguish those literate-code blocks which are commentary and those literate-code blocks which are code to be executed. If you don't fix that now, it will probably be fixed in SM2.
This proposal, while economically sound and something I have advocated for for years, fails to allow politicians and pundits to express their strong moral disapproval of geeks making money.
It happens on both sides, but my feeling is that the No campaign is hard to outdo when it comes to spreading fear[1].

Fair point about "think of the children" - though I'd say that it happens on both sides[2]. Not that there's a lack of arguments for independence - again, the Wee Blue Book I linked to above presents them quite well!

7 Reasons Why Use Affiliate Marketing
Debugging in Node.js Part 2: Untangling Asynchronous Events
I think the whole thing has been impressive, but I think a lot of that comes from the fact that the Yes Scotland campaign isn't about hating English people or barricading themselves off and the Better Together campaign isn't about oppressing Scots and ruling over them. In a certain sense, the British-American sensibility about the world is that if you can trade freely with people, come and go as you please, etc. then that covers a lot of what you care about. An independent Scotland is about different local setup, not receding from the world. Similarly, even the No campaign recognizes that the UK isn't about imposing laws and policies on people that don't want them.

In the past (post-Empire, pre-EU), national borders have meant a lot. Your citizenship gave you a very limited area that you could live and work in. Today, if Scotland is separate, what is the downside? Europeans have the right to live and work in Europe. Keeping the pound, things would look much as they always have for Scots. Even things like consular representation wouldn't change rapidly: Europeans can already use the embassies and consulates of other EU countries if they don't have their own representation in a country. And for all of the posturing, I think that any rump-UK government would allow and, in fact, want an independent Scotland to be as close and integrated as possible.

In some ways, it feels like the world is trying to figure itself out. In the past, empires brought lands together. If you were part of a tiny country, you could be at a distinct disadvantage. Empires broke up for many reasons into a more fractured world. Today, I think we're trying to build institutions that allow for independence while getting the benefits of trade, freedom of movement, etc. For non-Scots, the question somewhat becomes, "does it make a difference to us whether Scotland is independent or not?" If one is English and will have the right to live, work, vote, etc. in Scotland, aren't those the same privileges you have now?

And ultimately this campaign, on both sides, has (seemingly unknowingly to anyone in it) laid some of tracks of what our future might look like (worldwide). I think the Yes campaign has been a rebuke of nationalism based on race and hatred, while showing that nationalism can still be relevant when it's based on governance and values. Similarly, the No campaign has recognized the importance of democratic governments not simply imposing themselves on people and the flexibility and changing landscape of modernity. No matter how the vote goes later this month, the UK should be really proud.

Unlike other nationalist movements, the UK-Scotland situation feels so modern, regardless of the result. They're almost to that point of asking themselves what it means to be a nation, in which ways are locations important to be independent and in which ways should they be integrated, and how do we best provide for happiness and prosperity in the modern world.
I always thought Dyson was crap, based solely on their obnoxious ads and garish design. Then I bought my wife their cordless upright vacuum for her birthday (I know, I know, but she asked for it).

Also I don't think it's the best idea to suggest your product might be spam when trying to market it :) Teslaweekly is relevant and I haven't seen it plastered on every tesla story on HN. Doesn't seem spammy to me at all.

Fantastically annoying page design.

Scrolling takes many seconds to just show the next page, with no indication that anything is happening. Just blank blackness.

Then each page requires you to hunt and click little circles with pluses in them, just to show a paragraph or two of copy.

Would it have killed them to just present all the text at once? Perhaps use tabs or some other "normal" solution to the problem of wanting to talk about different aspects of a product? This whole "scroll to begin" paradigm is so annoying, I think the fact that they felt they had to include that little helper just to tell people how to get to the content is an indication that perhaps a better design exists.

Still, I'm glad that there's a robotic vacuum cleaner with better optical bandwidth than humans. I'm sure that's a major selling point in (robotic) vacuums.

While that should prevent their reporters / news readers (for example) from voicing a certain opinion, it doesn't however limit them in doing one-sided reporting (for example doing more coverage on the 'no' campaign or politicians leaning in that direction).
Underground garbage disposal. In Tel Aviv, the garbage gets picked up every day (hot climate), and because of traffic this is done early morning (4-5am).

The system will have dedicated "containers" on corners or squares where you drop your garbage and an underground network of carts delivers it to a central point where it can be picked up. Or even to the dump if possible.

This can be fully automated and I think will save a lot of money in manpower and gas (for driving the garbage trucks through the whole city).
I feel allowing anyone on the meeting sharing the document and being allowed to draw on it from their seats would be awesome.

It's not a case of "new hammer", it's being used there for the exact reason JSX was invented - "defining tree structures with attributes" in a standard way since "A generic but well defined syntax enables a community of independent parsers and syntax highlighters to conform to a single specification."

Both sides have talked up their own side and down the other.

The Yes side have sidestepped questions where they dont have answers or provided partial answers or over simplified things to make the yes decision seem like the better decision.

Anyone voting on this issue should read this book:

http://www.futureukandscotland.ac.uk/sites/default/files/pap...

90 page PDF explaining both sides of the biggest questions, providing the Yes and No side and then an analysis by independent experts.

Even if you are not voting it is a worthwhile read. I am not eligible to vote as i dont live in Scotland but this give me a much better understanding of the issues at hand. Personally i would like to see a Yes vote, partially because it will be interesting to see how it all pans out, but also because there is a genuine feeling in Scotland that they may be able to make a difference to the lives of residents of Scotland, who lets be fair, are usually at the bottom of the pile in terms of health, employment, life expectancy etc.

You're in the "dyson love" period. It'll wear off, then it'll be:

a) they go wrong which happens very often with uprights from experience. The hose goes as does the roller belts and the motor. Also on multiple models, the clips on the can are so bad that the moment you detach it from the unit, it pours its suckings all over the floor again. All parts are expensive.

b) they suck the wallpaper off or the floor tiles up causing damage.

c) you do your back in hoovering with the damn things as they weigh so much.
