> The fundamental problem is that high power fuel cells are very expensive, linear power with cost.

Does anyone talk about using fuel cells as auxiliary range-extenders to electric vehicles? If they're best at low power, and also highly efficient, they'd should be very good pootling away in the background, topping up a battery from a tank of methanol.
They deliberately forgot to steal the syntactic part. :)

The P6 project assumed it's possible to create hygienic lisp style macros without homoiconicity. In fact it's always been known that it's theoretically possible to create lisp style macros without homoiconicity, but it's usually been considered too darned difficult. P6 has definitely not blinked in the face of "difficult" but it currently looks likely that they'll fail to get there (strong lisp style macro features) this year. See 007 for the experimental sandbox created this year by the lead macro designer:

> Do you have links about influnce of CLOS MOP in Perl6 ? For what it's worth I do love Perl6 efforts like first class grammar/rules.

Here's an email written by Stevan Little in 2005. He was the lead designer of key elements of P6' OO, and the creator of Moose, the leading OO system in P5:

> I also borrowed many ideas from CLOS (in particular from book "The Art of the MetaObject Protocol"). CLOS is more like what you describe, where standard-class is the metaobject to define classes. I see this as mapping to the MetaClass, and our Class as being something akin to the find-class generic function in CLOS.

There's lots of bits like that scattered around the net.

I'm not sure if 6model was influenced by CLOS and it's technically not part of P6 as I understand it but it seems to be in the same space from an intentional point of view. In combination with P6's OO semantics it means it may well be practical at last to pass full blown objects back and forth among arbitrary OO languages in a high performance way. Again, doc is very hard to come by but here's what I've found:

The idea of trying to move subset types forward is interesting. Using an SMT solver [0] you can move quite a bit forward. Otherwise, generally, you're talking about associating a dictionary of pre- and post-conditions with a type (e.g., Weekday is a new nominal type isomorphic with Day, but it also has an associated dict containing checks that it's within Mon-Fri). Carrying that dict around has been well-solved by Haskell's typeclass compilation machinery and then it's just a matter of inserting the checks at the right times and not more often, I suppose.

Generally yes, sampling works well and is robust even for surprisingly small samples.

For stratified samples -- particularly if you want to stratify traffic by income potential, sampling over all visits may mask data of interest.

As for your example, a 10k and 100k sample will provide a 3.16x difference in the standard deviation (that is: accuracy of estimates of central tendency). That is, 10x more datapoints result in only 3x greater accuracy.
This is a great aggregator and very visually appealing.

As a recruiter, I would caution one big challenge in the remote job space is vetting legit opportunities. Specifically, I'm sure far too many developers can relate: a company promotes a variation of "remote-friendly", "potential for remote" or "remote for the right person." At they end of the day, they hire their "preferred candidate" locally and it's a huge time waster for all parties involved.

All in a all, your site looks excellent, but I just worry about the validity of the premise.

Although I've since moved on from C to Go, and have all but given up on really learning about the kernel, I really appreciate this in-depth look at how the kernel works.

I'm sure sometime in the future I'll get that itch to dive back in, and this will be a great resource.

Newbies to the kernel should also check out the Eudyptula Challenge (http://eudyptula-challenge.org/), it provides a structured approach to the kernel and makes you actually write the code. A downside is it's very popular and they've had trouble processing so many emails and solutions.

I think these resources, paired with what we have here could allow even non-kernel hackers to get some code into the kernel.
Non sequitur. The discussion here is about how AirBnB's unregulated supply of rental property is impacting long term rents in NYC.

FWIW

NYC has added 30,000 new hotel rooms since 2007. It would seem that AirBnB is adding nearly the same # of rooms.

Zillow lists 25,000 rental units in NYC. This is the same order as the # of rooms being rented on AirBnB.

Why can't we accept that AirBnB is contributing to increasing rental prices in NYC? What's the point of pointing to hotels every time someone mentions AirBnB?

I would expect that the founders of AirBnB genuinely care about communities where they operate, and would be motivated to advance the community's interest.
Yes and no.

Exporting visit trends over 5 landing pages and a month? Sure.

Exporting page views for 100,000 products each of whom got 5-100 views? Then that 5% sample is going to exclude most products. The latter approach is however necessary if you're trying to determine how each product category is really performing.

Two alternatives I prefer to Google Analytics Premium (once you get to that size): Webtrekk, a small but competent German company whose product costs around 1/10th as much per year, has a fraction of the bugs, and does reliable unsampled daily dumps (moving to hourly, I believe), although the UI is a little less intuitive; and a self-hosted Piwik instance, so you don't need to worry about data exports. The truth is modern relational databases are incredibly powerful and will easily scale even with information like impressions in onsite search. There are multi-TB instances of Postgres out there. I really suggest installing either in parallel to GA or on their own when you set up tracking.

I do agree with you that anybody involved in any kind of job that includes "analytics" in the title, or indeed most people in management, should take an intro stats course. I particularly like Introduction to Statistical Learning because of its brevity, relatively high abstraction level, and lack of maths.

Agreed, Obamacare is a horrible compromise with the Powers that Be.

I bought insurance from an exchange. It's too expensive, deductibles are too high, and selection of providers is too limited.

But even though I don't qualify for subsidies, I'm still paying about 30% less than before Obamacare.

So as bad as it is, it's still been a pretty big net positive for my family. Just goes to show what a basket case the US healthcare system is, when a dreadful situation is a big step up.

As far as I understand the alternative candidate is Methanol, which can be produced from Hydrogen, which has a relatively high energy density, is liquid at room temperature, and works well with fuel cells.

Thank you. This will save so much development time globally.

Please also look into the "Script error" message. I know it is intentionally non-descript to prevent leaking information about cross domain requests but there has to be something that is safe to report that will help developers narrow down what is causing it.

Sort of like Just-Eat? http://www.just-eat.co.uk
I respectfully disagree. I maintain there is a fundamental difference between the Cerf & Adami process (which is really just decoherence) and classical thermodynamic processes. That difference is: for ordinary thermodynamic processes, the odds of observing a decrease in entropy with increasing time is very small but nonetheless non-zero. In the decoherence model, the odds of observing a reversed entanglement is exactly zero because measurement is entanglement. As a practical matter it amounts to the same thing, but in principle it is as different as GR is from Newtonian mechanics.

Looks like you want something for nothing. No job is going to EVER give enough free time for you to pursue your interests to the fullest. I'm afraid you'll have to go about this in another way: Live below your means and work towards financial independence. Only then can you really pick and choose what you want to work on.
I'm pro science obviously, what would be the alternatve?

However, science is often done at the behest of the governement...

- govts, which lie every day.

- when not lieing, they are often wrong, incompetant, and biased by special interests.

- media does not report findings accurrately.

- due to poor education, people dont have the tools/time to do their own research.

Given this environment, a healthy skeptisism is quite "reasonable."

One of the examples, flouride. We know water is safe. A known party, a frequent liar, occasional incompetant, makes claims about adding a chemical to it for our benefit. Similar things have been said about drugs given to expectant mothers, about margerine, and high carb diets that later turned out to be false, just to name a few examples.

The barrier of proof is and should continue to be high.
I like AirBnB a lot, but the whole marketing it as a community thing just seems... weird, and a little disingenuous.

Granted I've only stayed in entire-appt bookings, but every single one of them has been run by a real estate person(s)/ entrepreneur managing multiple properties, who does not actually live there, and all of them have some self check-in so you never meet the person. It's really nothing more than a rev stream for these "hosts." I've been doing a lot of AirBnBs in Tokyo currently, and it's especially heinous here, like trying to up sell you on other stuff, or trying to justify a crappy, cheap bed because "it's factored into the price."

I just don't know about AirBnB's whole 'community' angle.
I can't imagine growing up with cars.

When I think back... I think back to sitting on top of a horse, as we make a journey together. The feel of his hair in your hands as you lean forward. The fun of sitting back while he eats grass. So relaxing and with a sense of bonding.

I mean... who would replace a living breathing horse, who is part of the family, with a smelly machine that breaks?

There is real nostalgia around horses. And phone booths. and Sony Walkman. and CRTs. And... and... and... .. .

People hate change. Just because "cars = gas/diesel" to YOU doesn't mean that a new generation of kids won't break their teeth, and learn to be engineers, with electric or hydrogen or whatever....

Unrelated Query: How can something be "flat out not true" if it's only an interpretation? Seems to be that what you're describing is a consensus or popular view opposed to a hard fact or universal truth.

"Negligence will be rewarded with disaster"
I'm a new immigrant, I expected it to be like buying car insurance, which seems relatively sane and competitive in comparison. A system like that would sort of make sense.

But it's nothing like that. What the hell are open enrolment periods for? I get a 300 page contract, how the hell am I supposed to read and properly comprehend that in the 10 days allotted before committing to paying $$$/month for at least a year?

Having lived in single-payer countries for most of my life, it's definitely a step backwards for me, both cost wise, and "how much I have to think about it" wise. The intellectual capital drain due to the complexity of the system here cannot be insignificant.

> You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else. - Winston Churchill
Your arxiv link disagrees with you. From the paragraph after equation 6.6 :

>This irreversibility is completely equivalent to the irreversibility
in classical mechanics. Indeed, classically, to
reverse the microscopic time evolution, it is necessary to
invert the velocity of all the particles, the practical impossibility
of which gives a macroscopic irreversible aspect
to time evolution. In quantum mechanics, it is necessary
to undo any unitary evolution associated with all interactions
that particles have undergone, so that reversibility
is practically impossible if a macroscopic number of particles
have been involved. We are led to conclude that
irreversibility is not an inherent feature of quantum mechanics.

Jonathan got an honors degree from Cambridge University in CS specializing in compilers etc. If you pay attention to his slides you'll see he's paid to train others to use a variety of languages (all kinda boring ones, except P6 imo, but still). Imo you are underestimating his expertise and the import of what he's saying in his presentation.

The bit that I'm still confused about is how the interleaving of run-time inside compile-time inside run-time inside compile-time etc. contributes to the imposition of compile-time type checking via run-time code and how far that paradigm can go. I'd appreciate you (or anyone else) carefully explaining that bit to me. :)

I think so; producing high-quality printed manpages is useful, at least to me.

In what way? Yes, TeX can do complex mathematics better, but most documents that people want to publish don't terribly need complex math that much.

> and the language is quite arcane.

What specifically is 'arcane' about it, versus something like TeX or markdown?

> One could...argue that writing man pages would be much easier...if the markup language was switched to e.g. Markdown by default.

But then someone would have to rewrite the existing corpus of manpages, and as others have pointed out, using markdown loses some semantics.

I think keeping that functionality in pandoc is the right way to go.
IIUIC, the GP was objecting that car companies have conflicting interests with oil companies on this matter, not that such large conspiracies can't happen given the stakes.

That is, car companies would love to be able to sell cars that don't need oil, and so would not (by themselves) hinder such technologies.

Typographer’s Glossary
Well, you don't have to have an insane salary to have this problem either. I had the same problem when I worked as a part-time math tutor post-college. <$15k/yr, but single, no debt, and I lived modestly. Basically the three people who could spend any time with me were two who lived basically the same lifestyle, and one who was a teacher and thus (briefly) free during summers.

Nowadays, I work (and make, thankfully) much more than that. But even working startup hours, I still find that the majority of my friends have no free time. What they don't spend at the office, they spend fixing the big houses they own.

Busy-ness is such a disease in today's culture; no-one gives themselves time to live, and when they do, they are forced to feel guilty about it, either implicitly or explicitly, by their co-workers or employers.

Also, for phones, size and weight are very important, making modularity more difficult. Similarly, more people build their own desktop PCs than laptops.

It's hard for me to see how the car industry will go. Even today, there are people who keep cars running longer by replacing engines, etc., but most people want to replace the whole care before the drive-train gives out. My wife is ready to replace her 10-year old Honda Accord, not because of any drive-train problems, but because the upholstery is worn out, the AC sometimes blows hot air (I think it's some intermittent problem with the blend door, but it's hard to replicate the problem), it has some little dents and scratches, it makes funny sounds, and she's ready for something new. I can't think how any of those things will change with an electric drive-train.
