In principle, adding more depth to the network can take care of that. If you are keeping track of higher and higher level abstractions, you can remember what you were saying.

But you can't remember everything, so ideally you'd also have an attention model that's capable of looking back at what you've written, and make edits. When I balance parentheses, I don't maintain a counter of how many parentheses are open, I look back at what I've written and count them.
There's no reason why constraint solving wouldn't work just as well in the browser as AutoLayout works on OSX/iOS if it was natively implemented.

It is not natively implemented however. Also, to take it further, Cassowary.js could solve for and output to flexbox as a backend.

Hi Erik!

I imagine you're going to be flooded with advice to grab a lawyer right quick, and that it's just smarter to change your domain name immediately. I'll offer a dissenting opinion, after having dealt with one too many wannabe copyright troll lawyers myself. Here's my response to the last barrister who tried something similar with a domain I own:

Long story short: read up on the Lanham Act and all it's particulars, talk to a lawyer if you have one on retainer (a trial attorney is expensive, but legal aid and advice is relatively speaking much cheaper), and most importantly, don't freak out - this guy's claim is so vague that he doesn't have a chance of shutting you down (note: IANAL and also not your lawyer, this is just my opinion - but I've had two separate side projects shaken down by wannabe copyright trolls, and I can at least confirm that my approach has worked for me in the past and stopped any potential legal action in it's tracks.)

Somewhere on your main page, perhaps in the footer, specify that you have absolutely no affiliation with his product. Notify him that you've updated your site to clear up any potential confusion between your product and his, and ask him if he can provide any proof of customers for Caseweb confusing Caserails for his product, so that you and your counsel can further evaluate his claims in hopes of reaching an amicable resolution. His response will be illuminating, I'm sure.

Good luck.

Very US-centric. We don't prescribe amphetamines like candy in Europe.
This is a self-fulfilling prophecy in a society with too-free capitalism and non-self-confident citizens.

The government should apply regulation to not let this prophecy become reality, for else money will steer the people, not rational thought.

I'd rather plant my own food than to buckle for money. The more people think like that, the better we all will be off. This is not binary.

Do not forget that the company needs you, too.

I remember as a kid I took my rollerblades apart, and 'cleaned' the bearings with WD40. The wheels spun so much faster when I simply spun the wheels on the skates. But I slowed down much faster when actually had the skates on and went down the street.

Turns out re-packing the bearings with new grease fixed the problems, even though the wheels didn't free spin nearly as long.
I find the whole "Young Adult" category strange. In film, most people don't automatically look down on movies just because they're not rated R or NC-17. Any book without blatantly adult-only content (which includes the majority of books) could reasonably be read by "Young Adults".
Excellent ideas. Hope to see these things soon.
Absolutely, this just let's me know if I even want to expend energy to pursue the position.
It's only unclear if you don't understand that if/then is not commutative. If I said that x/y = z, it wouldn't be "unclear" whether that implies that y/x = z, because the division operator simply isn't commutative.

There are bad YA novels, and bad non-YA novels, in all genres, including fantasy. I've seen plenty of cookie-cutter fantasy stories in the standard fantasy section as well.

And on the flip side, there are a lot of excellent fantasy novels squirreled away in the YA section where many people will overlook them.

1. At least you can replace the hard drive easily in a PC. I had to remove 21 screws with a special screw driver to get an SSD into my MBP.

2. Windows doesn't need Expose because Alt+Tab actually works. There are equivalents available for Dashboard and Notifications (like Growl).

3. I've never seen a Mac with as much freedom and flexibility as a PC, but I have seen touchpads that work well. Who wants to use a touchpad at all though unless you're forced to? I'll take a 5 button vertical mouse over a touchpad any day.

4. Maybe. I like running a Unix that's closer to production though and nobody runs OS X on servers. A VM is better IMO.

5. Visual Studio with Web Essentials is hands down the best web development tool there is. Javascript, CSS and HTML autocomplete throughout the entire project. Go to definition that actually works...throughout your entire project. There is no equivalent on any OS.

6. ~~Android Chrome and a PC can do the same.~~ (OK, it can't really but I don't need it and there are too many things that I do need on Windows that are so much more important, like a window manager that doesn't work against me.)

London has a similar issue with house prices / rents continuing to rise much faster than the rest of the UK.

I relocated from London to Barcelona 3 years ago to do remote freelance work. The cost of living is lower here with a good quality of life. There is lots of interesting work in London and its a good place to gain experience but I've got no plans to go back.
This 3x yearly earnings is mentioned quite often. But I can't believe anybody is selling for this. Maybe for 5x if you are in need of money.
And in times of zero interest rates this 3x thing sounds even more unbelievable.

I had been using a C720 with crouton up until a week ago. I usually just close the lid to hibernate it, but that particular day I turned it off. When I turned it back on, I couldn't restart crouton ("Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory")

I suspect that's the result of an update in the underlying ChromeOS, but I can't say for sure. Regardless, I think I'll wipe ChrOS off anyway and just put Debian Jessie on it. I don't like to think my setup can be broken by an underlying OS update.

I mostly like the hardware. My biggest gripe is the lack of a delete key on the keyboard, and the placement of the power button just above the backspace key makes it easy to hit inadvertently,

++good. Meds, rectify.
The problem is that taxi regulation doesn't make any sense to begin with. As you said, people get transported from Place A to B for a fee.

Fundamentally, it's as simple as buying a pound of cheese from a supermarket. It's just a transaction between people.

So why should taxi drivers have to get "licensed"? What exactly is that license? What does it represent besides going through a burdensome ordeal? How would getting licensed increase safety in any way? It's not like anyone wants to experience a car crash.

The real point of the exercise is to maintain a state-supported taxi-cartel. Higher prices for the masses, and higher profits for the cartel. Desperation and hardship for the debt-slave drivers.
There are a number of theories, none of which have very strong support.

You probably have met someone with ADHD, you just probably judged them as lazy or immature. Some people very much do struggle with keeping certain topics on their minds.
True, and for that I am very, very grateful since I live in middle-Europe currently..

I grew up just reading whatever I could pull off the shelf from my local library—finding the SFF short story scene in my late teens was a huge and welcome discovery. Not sure why, and it could just be confirmation bias, but in my experience the quality of writing in short stories tends to be a lot higher than the writing in a novel, or series. Short form has some of my favorite works now, and I tend to read that first since it's much easier to make time for. It's really worth looking into it if you've only been exposed to published novels before. Tor.com is free and has a great collection. Clarkesworld and Asimov's both charge subscription fees but are completely worth the price.

You forgot labor laws.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I've attempted to lay out a rationale from as close to first principles as I can reasonably approach for the right relationship startups should have with the law and society and you've ignored it out of disgust.

No alternatives given for fixing the problems that legislation engenders for commerce, just irrational hatred.

A bandwidth rate limiter is indeed of dubious utility. There's a lot of ways that can go wrong, and there's a lot of ways it can fail to do what the user expected anyhow, and there's a lot of ways it can do both.

But there's a lot of things that can be sensibly rate limited, such as logins attempts to a given account. Now that has its own considerations, too, if pushed to the limit... you'd prefer that an attacker can't lock down your service just by spuriously trying to log in to all your accounts 5 times every 5 minutes or something. But loud downtime (which you can then react to) may be preferable to getting your users silently hacked.

I definitely agree that they are less useful than they look at first glance, a great deal more complicated than you'd like, and more subtle than you'd think. But they can still be a useful tool.
Yes you have. You've just never met a person diagnosed with ADHD. Even in the US, the diagnosis rate of ADHD is way below the statistical rate of occurrence in the population (and yes, that is true even when you only say something is "ADHD" if it is critically impairing the person's life.) But in other countries, diagnosis is virtually nonexistent, despite similar prevalence. In those countries, people with ADHD are just seen as lazy or lacking character, and are told to "suck it up." (Where ADHD is precisely the lack of executive function necessary to "suck it up.") These people do not turn out well.

If you look at most countries besides the US, there is a distinct "slacker" subculture that is likely a bunch of people with undiagnosed ADHD. NEETs in Japan, for example. These are approached as unique cultural phenomena, rather than through the lens of epidemiology.

(Other thought: maybe you have met someone diagnosed with ADHD, but they've never told you they have it. I don't go around telling my friends and coworkers I have ADHD; it's an annoying conversation to have with someone if you don't know whether they know enough about the disease to separate it from "laziness" as a temporary emotion. I just blab about it to strangers on the internet.)
I'm loving the response, but can you provide a company that did this in the past?

IMO it's up to the individual to decide if they watch porn or not. So moving these users to a dedicated space seems like a fair thing to do?

In general, re-implementing a software product from open specifications has been protected by the courts. There are numerous examples, from the original IBM BIOS to Microsoft BASIC to PostGres and BSD Unix. That said, the Google case is casting a shadow on programatic APIs, but 'look and feel' are essentially fair game.

What are protected and protectable are Trademarks. So using the word 'Slack' in the name or anything that looks like it came from the Slack web site (see the recent "Open Trello" flare up) will cause you legal issues and should be avoided entirely.

The most interesting "middle" case is if you want to host third party integrations which work on your system and Slack's then you're going to get some push back. But again, caveat things like patents, being enough workalike (or my favorite phrase bug-for-bug compatible) is well trodden and has consistently been shown to be ok. (see the latest Keurig fiasco for that!)

Nadya: thanks for the reply.

My comment about GNU/Linux was maybe too sarcastic, but in the article to which I was responding, Stallman did write "I developed the GNU operating system, which is often called Linux", which you have to admit is a bizarre statement.

But I really don't think I mistake free/libre for free/gratis. Even if a web service is built on FOSS, you cannot see if it is tracking you, any more than I can tell what data is in a LibreOffice spreadsheet. Surely the NSA open source effort demonstrates that in spades.

As for the alternative solution: I do agree with Stallman's third suggestion: surveillance (both corporate and state) is a legal and political problem which needs to be seen in that light.
But when compared to similar searches historically, you can draw conclusions from the trend.

If one assumes a similar historical probability between looking for a house and buying a house, it follows that if more people are looking for houses outside of SV, more people are also buying houses outside of SV.

At the very least, it shows that people in SV are more interested in housing markets outside of SV today than they were a few years ago, even if they don't move there.

Immediate verification of insight by means of experimentation often is the only viable long term strategy when the search space is vast. I.e. prediction, provocation and reception of sensory inputs.

Linux is a reimplementation of proprietary Unix interfaces.
