Having just finished rolling out a largish scale Thumbor implementation has anyone compared it to Imgix?

The feature set I required is served by both equally, so it comes down to performance/ddos prevention/cost for me mostly. I am unlikely to modify what I have just done since it is working fine, but for the future would love to know if anyone has experience with this.

That might actually be interesting. Most chess games are decided by blunders even at Grandmaster level. I'd love to see people try to work on a "perfect" game, with unlimited retries. Maybe we'd finally see whether White has a winning advantage.

Simple ethics. If you contact them, you can at least give them time to patch the flaw for software, or time to start producing a new line of locks in this case. If you release it to the world before they're even aware of it, there's a gap where there is absolutely no mitigation whatsoever.

The alternative is to have the government say-so (fiat) to back your currency. The U.S. dollar has value because the government can levy taxes and they say it has value. When there are physical assets backing the currency, it is less amenable to governments manipulating the value of money.
Something I think could help people in these situations but doesn't have much popular support - over-the-counter antidepressants.

It's telling that the author was able to check out a book on suicide, but didn't seek medical help. That would require a) getting past the stigma of suffering from depression b) calling up a doctor or therapist c) suffering through the long mental health wait times that exist in most countries, d) being sent to a CBT therapist, given a self-help book or website e) being referred to a psychiatrist f) finally being prescribed something.

It can be months before a depressed person gets any kind of treatment at all. And they are the last people to have the energy it takes to navigate a byzantine healthcare system, or have a friend or family member help them (many people still believe depression is a character weakness and will punish the patient for speaking out).

Antidepressants aren't all that dangerous, even when compared to other over-the-counter drugs like Plan B. They're not happy pills, they often won't even make a miserable life bearable, but they do give the patient enough energy to deal with his/her problems. Given the number of lives lost to suicide, and the high disease burden of depression, I think the safety tradeoff is absolutely worth it.

I'm aware this comment is going to attract a lot of ill-will and uninformed comments about anti-depressant efficacy/ woo about happy pills etc. so I direct you to read this FAQ first.

Agreed. That all sounds good. I'm not sure about the 'good cops don't have anything to fear' argument, because of course every time they restrain any drunk, they have something to fear. Rich people hire lawyers; cops aren't rich. Cops use intimidation to quell a drunk; if you can get them to stand down and get their buddies to take them home, problem solved. The alternative in this brave new world of cop-surveillance may be to arrest them all instead.

So it would change things.

Have you tried Inbox yet? You could probably bundle these and maybe Gmail would learn better how to at least categorize them so you can squish them faster. If you need an Inbox invite let me know.
That's a good question. I think it depends on the pricing technique.

For example, research shows that anchoring effects occur even when people are explicitly warned about anchoring before they make their estimate.

On the other hand, if people are aware of other pricing techniques, then those techniques could backfire in a negative direction. For example, researchers have found a "reverse priming effect." In other words, if people detect some persuasive intent behind the marketer, then those people are more likely to resist that persuasion attempt. So it could make things worse.

It's $521,411 per household[0] (the household bit is probably where we're getting confused).

$500k, $400k, either way, the goal is as I've stated; once you've taken care of yourself, you start wanting to take care of others. There is always motivation to make more, until everyone is provided for, and even when you've provided for everyone you care about, providing for the general wellbeing of humanity becomes a priority (Gates, Buffet, et al).

But isn't it the case that gold has an arbitrary value as well ("they say it has value")? It has no intrinsic value. It just sits there.
It should also be noted that in a real crisis, getting gold out of a gold hoard will prove problematical, especially if the vault is geographically distant from you. Likewise storing a couple tons of gold under your bed isn't terribly practical. Good luck trying to transport that if you need to leave in a hurry.

> This seems risky from a business perspective: it's voluntary vendor lock-in.

If you want to run a business that builds/tests using the osx/ios ecosystem this is the only way to do it legally. Apple's licensing terms enforces this. Otherwise we'd be running OSX on generic pizza box servers since Apple's hardware is truly overpriced and not built efficiently at all for the datacenter (they work fine on desks). Apple really gimped the 2014 mac mini's btw. They perform worse than the high end 2012 mac minis.
We do use the D500, so I should have quoted those gflops.

Well now I'm curious as to why you aren't using the D700s. The extra gflops seem like a good value to me. Approximately 60% greater GPU performance for a 15% increase in cost, everything else being equal.

But you probably have to get some work done, rather than answer random questions from the Internet. :-)

Good luck!
I am 45 and I almost only listen to new music. I have almost a 1000 CDs from the 90s and early 00s (all ripped to FLAC), but I find myself listening to new music because there is so much fantastic new music out there and it is so easy to access. For a music fan it really is the golden age (not so much for the musicians).

As for learning new programming skills I still enjoy it, but I think this is because for me languages/frameworks/algorithms are just tools. The real fun is in using the right tool to solve a complex problem.
The key point about Onboarded is that it's made for developers. It makes it simpler and faster to completely customize the user experience that you want, integrated as you see fit with your app's existing functionality and look/feel.

Once you have a currency that isn't controlled by any one single government, then they all have to behave themselves better with respect to financial management. That is the real point of one of these schemes - to make all the governments more accountable through the global economy. If you have a gold standard, then when a country is badly managed, much of the privately-held gold naturally flows out of that country, punishing the misbehaving economy. Likewise well-managed economies tend to have large inflows of gold. Governments hate this because they're in the business of having the final say in their respective geographic regions of control.

There have been quite a few stories regarding the insurance policy, though more about the ambiguity/controversy in general than specific incidents...which isn't surprising...when do car accidents make it into the national news? Rarely, unless a whole bunch of people die. For an Uber-related accident and subsequent legal fight to make national news, one of the parties has to pitch that angle to the media...though with the way things are, media outlets generally have little problem jumping on an Uber (or Airbnb) mishap when they hear about it.

That said, here are a few examples I found:

> As you might imagine, the front of the Dodge was badly damaged. The driver is now suing the driver of the Town Car, a vehicle with livery plates operated under the company SF Limo Car Service. The pedestrian, who broke her leg and injured her back, is suing both drivers. She is also suing – and this is what makes this crash particularly interesting – the transportation-tech company Uber.

While he was filing a claim with Geico, they asked him if he ever worked for Uber or Lyft. “I panicked,” he said. “They put me on the spot. So I just answered honestly and said yes, but that I wasn’t working when this happened.”

> After initially being told by an Uber representative in Chicago that he had to pay a $1,000 deductible, this was later recanted. Since he was not at fault, his personal car insurance fronted the entire bill. But because he lacks commercial coverage, questions arise as to who would be responsible if he had been responsible for the collision.
I'm sorry if we're perhaps disagreeing pointlessly. So long as we're on the same page (as we may have been from the beginning) that significant suicidal impulses aren't something people should be talked out of by their friends, I'm not sure we have anything to productively disagree about.

There are a variety of conditions that can make a person suicidal. Depression isn't the only one.

In some of these cases, the resolution of the problem may involve changes to environment or circumstances. In others, the resolution might be chemical. In still others, prolonged inpatient treatment may be required in order to ensure safety.

What's true in all cases is that the decisions about how to proceed in resolving the emergency should be made by people trained to do it. As you can see from many other comments n the thread, our intuition on how best to help suicidal friends and acquaintances are, at best, unreliable.
Same here. I basically get bored with most music fairly quickly so I'm always looking for something new. Most of my high-school friends are still listening to the same music from the 80's and 90's though!

This seems really crazy to me. I get it, when you're a startup sometimes you end up with bubblegum and scotchtape solutions like this and sometimes that really makes the most sense on many levels.

But usually you keep that to yourself! To me, this reads sorta like: "Well, it was really hard to find someone who knew how to build a replacement bridge across the creek. We were pressed for time, and Bob didn't know anything about bridges, but luckily, he used to be in the Air Force and we have a bunch of venture capital. ... So we bought a helicopter instead. We only cross a few times a year, so for now we're coming out ahead and it works out for us. Plus the pictures are nice..."
It is intriguing, and we have one D700 Mac Pro for test purposes. At the time we ordered the Pros for the prototype rack that is the subject of this article, we found that other parts of our pipeline were preventing us from taking full advantage of the increased GPU performance. So we ratcheted down to the D500.

Keep in mind that either of them offer significantly higher gflop/s per system than the best GPU ever shipped on a Mac Mini (480 vs 2200 vs 3500).

However, we have fixed bottlenecks in our pipeline as we identified them, so it is probably time to re-evaluate. I actually just had a conversation with an engineer a minute ago who is going to jump on this in the next few days. Higher throughput and better $/gflop is always the goal, just have to make sure we can actually see the improvement in practice.
> If you woke up tomorrow and your bank account were empty and your family were gone, would you consider suicide? Alot of people would, and it's not because they formed a mental defect overnight.

Not overnight, but this event might trigger clinical depression which is a mental illness in which suicide might appear as a "viable" (sic!) option.

Suicide is simply not the response of a healthy individual in the scenario you described. One would either fight, flight or freeze without willingly harm oneself.

Indeed, although a couple of tons of gold is worth roughly $68,000,000.
Gold is durable, and it is shiny and pretty - trinkets and baubles made out of it look good. Humans throughout history have regarded it as desirable and have prized it. This sort of cross-cultural widespread agreement is what gives it its value.
Processing would make a good case that it is dynamic languages that help moreso than functional. Specifically, dynamic in that you can interact with a running program easily.

This really does get into a lot of the power of many lisp setups. It is not so much that there is a REPL. There is a nice ready made hook into a running system.

Modulo: A simple, modular solution for building electronics
Well a framework has done all the heavy listing, you add in your stuff and can be good to go in an extremely short time. Drawbacks are you are married to the framework, have to keep it updated as well as live with its idiosyncrasies and quirks (sometimes you just cant easily do something in a framework and have to kludge it in..., and it will probably get worse as time goes on). Another fear is that the framework may end-of-life or go through some massive refactor at sometime and you would have to re-configure to project to keep going.

Pure PHP is good but takes time to develop code to something mature, you will get maximum flexibility (you will eventually get what you want), but you are dependent on your skills and research. Pure PHP can be safe, just you have to research and implement whatever safe code/practices you need.

Kind of depends on what you are going for. If you want to fiddle, try both. If you want something that would be complex quick, probably a framework. If you want something that you can't see done with a framework and are willing to put in the time and effort, pure PHP would be a good route.

I read if it is short term good to go with a framework, long term, you should expect to end-up with something more robust (start with framework, build into a more stable long term pure PHP for the long haul).

However, I can't think it would be as much as what we see today - the environment plays the largest role I would guess, especially since after the "roles" are established experimentation with "non-role-appropriate" toys are probably highly discouraged.
You are somewhat right in that HTML and CSS heavily inspired what kiUi became.
But there are two major concerns that are not adressed by your solution :

- Embedding a whole browser in your app just to display a few widgets is not my definition of "lightweight"

- Often coding UI in native code (C++) makes a lot more sense, integrate with exiting code in a much cleaner way

Game developpers would much less tend to build their own libraries from scratch, if there was at least one that satisfied all of these 'basic' requirements : lightweight, skinnable, auto-layout
What about checking the history file into its own rep? Clone it as part of the build-environment setup, and commit/push after validation. You can even use this across a group of people and share each other's mutations.

Or even simpler, why not have build actions copy it to/from a specific location outside the build target dir? You could even make it a shared network drive, if you didn't care about the possibility of losing someone's changes if two people run tests at the same time.
