I like this! I think I’d enjoy it more if there were a back button, to undo the last move, as well as the reset button to start again from the beginning. It’s frustrating to have to start again because of a single mistake.

I really don't understand the meaning of this sentence (below). Perhaps somebody could explain?

Yeah, so, I'm guessing you don't do a lot of financial modelling.

They fixed one of the issues I reported. I don't believe I had official confirmation of the other issue I had with Railo being resolved. I probably should try it out again on their latest version, but I don't use Railo and haven't found myself with much fondness for ColdFusion either.

But I should probably pull my thumb out and check ;)

Is this facetious? Because it's a little funny to expect the IRS to be so literal. In my experience, either it's "earned" in that it's been paid directly to you or it's indirect income (e.g. dividends you were paid on an investment you aren't directly working on or appreciation you haven't collected on) that are still going to be taxed on in one way or another.
Incorrect. You don't have to let CZ.NIC manage your keys for you.

The politics of Apple really is quite fascinating.

Is there any other company that people feel so passionately about that they are prepared to totally reverse their normal political positions? Mention Apple and you can get a bunch of free market libertarians to come out and demand strong consumer rights regulation, purely because they hate Apple so much. Conversely you can get a bunch of socialists sticking up for the right of a multibillion dollar mega-corp to use DRM, censor all competitors from their platform and sell products containing materials extracted through slave and child labour, purely because they like Apple products more than the alternatives.
Having developed for 5 years on iOS I've never found it a burden. Sure you might wait a few days for approval, but at least generally it keeps the App Store content dependable and trustworthy from a customer standpoint. Like people always say, you don't like the rules, don't play in the sandbox. While the EFF has a lot of good things to say, complaining that Apple should do things against its own rules is not constructive. Android is far more open which makes some people happier but makes their store far less trustworthy (and even less so if you get apps outside their Store). You as a developer always have a choice. I don't think this is a useful point of argument for the EFF.
Bit of a bait and switch at the end: "Then save up $10k in case it doesn’t. Then book that flight."

As with all things, often it doesn't work out and what you could end up with is (worst case) stuck somewhere in Asia with no funds, job or house.

This sort of thing works if you have no family. A few years ago it would have worked, now with a young daughter and fiancee it's harder. And then when you're living on that beach and you meet a girl? Are you sure you want to live there for a long long time?

One day we'll travel and live around the world, but I suspect much later. So.. sour grapes!
> I don't see where they show that the cost of clinical trials etc. for getting drugs through the FDA is affected. From what I can tell, those are the largest costs involved. Especially considering that most of the drugs discovered, even using those advanced methods, fail in the trial phase after hundreds of millions invested.

Agreed, but I compared the costs of developing drugs 20 years ago. They had to synthesize and experiment with each and every drug. Not that's not the case. And most of the drugs which being developed now, use the principals I explained above. If clinical tests are proven successful then they file patents, but it's not an "innovative" process as per say. India has been working to get rid of such patent trolls for some time now.

> "Siphon money" or "capture the rewards of the value they provide"? Undermining global incentives to invest billions in research that could save hundreds of millions around the world does not seem like the "right direction". Not the first time the Indian government has done something selfish but shortsighted. (Pokhran comes to mind.)

Agreed, these kinds of researches has to be done, but not at cost of people's lives, I have explained statistics of people affected by AIDS above. It is a grave social injustice. These research and development processes are flawed in the sense that they cannot provide affordable alternatives to existing methods. These companies must adapt to affordable and agile development processes or someone else will replace them, remember "Mars Orbiter Mission" by ISRO.

And speaking of Pokhran, it was not a short sighted decision. India has Pakistan, an irresponsible nuclear capable neighbor, with whom India has been in state of war since 1947. Effects of Pokhran economic sanctions were not severe, because foreign trade of India constituted to 4% of it's GDP, while USA participation was only 10%. After Pokhran, under then PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee, India achieved record breaking 6-7 % growth rate in GDP. A few problems could be pointed out, but it was not a short sighted decision at all.

I am not being a socialist, but I must add that such innovation and development should be done for the people, not American people, not British people, but keeping people of the world in mind. Please don't monopolize products which can save a lot of peoples lives.
I have a simpler heuristic to get to success I think is to build something that YOU wand and YOU would pay for. Then charge what you would be willing to pay.

Unless you have a boatload of empathy or you spend a lot of time living with and solving other people's problems, you are going to waste a lot of time on these kind of silly frameworks for trying to find the perfect idea.

Yet, you are one of many billion people on the planet who buy things. So, it is highly unlikely that what you want is totally unique. Also, the only person you can truly empathize with is yourself. You know what you want and you like better than anyone else.

Build for yourself. Sell what you would buy. If you wouldn't pay what you are trying to charge, then you are probably in the wrong business.
Don't worry, dude. Give it time.

Coming out of any multi-year relationship is normally a shock to the system. The wonderful whiff of want is the fiercest anti-pheromone.

Also, a good tip, put a rug on the floor.
The title of the article is "More than a third of American workers don’t get sick leave, and they’re making the rest of us ill".
It is normal in the US. In the UK title case has been obsolete for decades. Apparently USA Today and Washington Post already switched[1]. It makes US newspapers look very old fashioned to me, well along with the rest of their retro styling.

I find this to be useful in other situations though, like asking +X% more of rise or in an interview, or asking for a better deal with your internet provider, or just a discount in an store.
"sell products containing materials extracted through slave and child labour" has no basis in fact; besides every phone manufacturer builds their devices in the same factories. At least Apple and a few others make attempts to verify conditions publically. Not everyone even tries.

> we started off as a successful company but we've been bleeding users and losing demographics, so we're going to cater exclusively to those demographics that still use our product, even if it further alienates everybody else

If your problem is intractable then it's probably a good idea. When your demographic is getting older and not being replaced by a younger generation you're in trouble. Comic books can't compete with tablets, phones, cable TV, etc. for the attention of kids. It's not like it was in the 80s and earlier.

The interesting thing about the comic book companies is they have a lot of IP that's part of the collective consciousness and they've diversified by making shitloads of movies and TV shows that are hugely popular. The comics though? Relatively speaking no one is reading them.
While I don't think it's a big enough reason to actively decide to put a smaller battery in, I'm sure I'm not the only one who hates putting things on charge for longer than they need.
The battery losing its capacity is probably the single biggest reason for me having to replace my devices, and whether it's an outdated notion or not, it's in my head that leaving something on charge when it's full kills the battery.
Your not giving up your rights when you agree not to do one thing in order to do another. You're actually exercising your right to enter into contracts.

You have the right to sleep all day. And perhaps you've agreed to not do that while you are collecting an hourly wage. Nobody's violating your right to sleep.
> Less seriously, Unicode has counterintuitive case-changing behaviours with those letters. If you are working outside the Turkish locale and uppercase a dotless I and then lowercase it, it gains a dot.

AFAIK the only solution would be to error out when uppercasing a dotless i in a non-turkish locale. Which I'm not sure sounds better. Or going back in time and creating a separate category of i and I for the turkish script.

Huh. Funny - you can probably come up with a few scenarios where that would happen, like if their large-scale deployment software for self-driving cars is heavily dependent on the wisdom of crowds, for instance.
Angular 2 coming out isn't going to make Angular 1 disappear. It might not even end first party support for some time, though the fact that Angular is open source means that there are options for maintenance even when first party support does end.

You might choose to switch to Angular 2 later just as you might switch to anything else based on a future cost-benefit analysis, but you don't have to.

I find this interesting when you think America is considered to be much more prudish than Europe. Anecdotally it seems that although sex and nudity is less taboo in Europe it isn't abused in the way it is in America.
Please don't be so afraid of the Schengen zone. If everyone follows this advice there will be no more US / European marriages.

You can hop between Schengen and UK or Ireland, or Croatia, or Romania indefinitely. Nobody will care.

The UK is the hardest of them all -- asking tons of questions. Nobody else is so tough. So go to Ireland. Nicer people and much better weather. (just one of these is true) If you want to go to the UK, go there from Ireland. Nobody will ask a single question then & there will be no stamp.

15 years ago it was much easier. I lived in the Czech Republic for > 8 years, without even bothering to get a Visa. Many people I knew did the same. Never heard of anyone having a problem except for one friend who was a little bit drug crazed and burnt out and had a bit of a spat with a border officer on the way out. Now CZ is schengen, so you need a Visa, or you need to stay just 3 months in 6.

Actually, that's an interpretation of quantum mechanics, not quantum mechanics itself. QM itself is in fact a statistical theory: the result of a calculation is a probability distribution of possible outcomes (even in the cases where the outcome might be deterministic). Taking your example of the double slit experiment, the calculation yields, in the case of two slits, a probability distribution with peaks and nulls corresponding to interference fringes. Close one slit and you get a different distribution without said interference.

What you describe is an interpretation of those probability distributions, and there are many conflicting views on the interpretation of QM (though, to date, these interpretations have not led to conflicting numerical results in the calculations). Wiki has a reasonable list of the extant interpretations [1] but I'll also draw your attention to an interpretation that is inherently statistical: Quantum Bayesianism (Nature has a nice overview [2]). To be crude, the idea is to look at QM from the point of view of the experimentalist: what information does she have available to her? In the case of the double slit experiment, it's impossible to say from a measurement of the electron at the screen which slit it passed through, so you cannot condition the measurement on either one individually, but both together.

QuBism is only one of the many interpretations of QM; others include the many-worlds interpretation (only deterministic in the crudest sense; any collapse of a wavefunction is thought to cause as many divergent universes as there are possible outcomes, but the one the experimentalist observes is still a statistical result), the copenhagen interpretation (also statistical, while the wavefunction is thought to represent the "true" state of a particle, its evolution under measurement is still non-deterministic), etc.

Finally, in case anyone is interested in more in-depth reading, the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy has some fantastic readings on these, and related, topics. Articles worth checking out are that on measurement in QM [3] and those on the various interpretations (e.g. [4-6]).

Maybe that's true when dealing with clients who also use photoshop, but the majority of artists I know love to experiment with new software - and hardware - and flit between them depending on the job at hand. Photoshop is a bloated, expensive piece of software, but Adobe listen hard to the people using it, and it's really good at what it does, and that's why people keep going back.
So actually, I think the idea that data-dependent hypotheses are bad is fundamentally wrong, and is based on a misunderstanding of probability.

The reason you'd avoid data-dependent hypotheses is simple: if the data comes from a process with some sort of randomness in it, then there will usually be things that appear to be interesting patterns but are in fact random artifacts. If you look at your data, you may be tempted to formulate a hypothesis based on these random artifacts. It may pass statistical tests (because the data you have does contain the pattern), but it is not, in fact, causal. To avoid this, you maintain the discipline of only making hypotheses before you look at your data, which means that you can't see a random effect and then guess that it's real.

The problem is, this doesn't mean that if your hypothesis passes a statistical test, the result must be causal. It only lowers the probability - there is still a chance that your hypothesis was wrong, but your data happens to contain a random fluctuation that makes it look right. The only way to protect against this danger is to continuously gather data and re-evaluate your hypotheses, while understanding that there is always some probability that the effect you think you see is really random noise.

And once you're doing this continuous monitoring anyway, then there's no reason to reject data-dependent hypotheses. By definition, if the effect you're seeing is a random occurrence, then it should go away with more data. If it doesn't go away, then maybe you've found something that you wouldn't have been able to guess in advance, which is good! And if you see a random effect, form a hypothesis that passes some test, and then assume that your hypothesis must be true, then the problem is not your data, but rather that you misunderstand how probability works.

In short, avoiding data-dependent hypotheses is a hack that only reduces the probability of an error that you should be avoiding entirely anyway. Once you accept this and start avoiding the error, there's no reason to avoid data-dependent hypotheses, and they can be quite useful.
> "I've never understood Americans' obsession with superhero comics. When I was a kid I was reading Asterix[1], Gaston Lagaffe[2], Spirou et Fantasio[3], Lucky Luke[4], Prince Valiant[5], The Phantom[6]"

It is a culture thing. Growing up in latinamerica in the 80's and 90's meant that I have access to four of the comics you mention and the ones coming from USA. Asterix's stories for instance were cool but I still preferred reading Superman, and I guess that's because in my original country we were closer to USA's culture than French culture.

A MANIFEST is not the right answer. Steam deals with any number of third-party games which may drop any number of files into these directories.

The best way to nuke a directory is 'rm -rf "$DIRECTORY"'. Any amount of "well what if $DIRECTORY points to the wrong place" has nothing to do with the removal operation itself.

not really sure where your source is on this -- I lived abroad for five years and met many, many people doing this same thing (especially in Bucharest) -- both in I.T. and in other fields -- it's very do-able, as the author describes -- and as you suggest, it helps if you don't have family

It may have had something to do with what was available at the time... For myself I had an old Mac plus and it had basic and HyperCard. Creating graphical games was HARD in basic. In HyperCard I could just draw a picture in it, make areas clickable add some script and voila! I made little cheesy Myst-like games.

As it progressed they made it easier to play music on queue and play video. Eventually I moved onto the web but the web was also complicated by JavaScript which I avoided for years.
