So I was shopping for bathroom fixtures with my wife and I decided to use the bathroom (the ones that were plumbed!).

I sit down, do my thing, and I notice there's a remote control unit. I press the button and a jet of water shoots up my ass, and I get so freaked out I stood up and got the rest of me wet, too. Having not read the manual, I press a few more buttons because I hear these things dry you as well. It did, after a few more squirting incidents.

It would have been cool to have one of these things, but they do cost a fair bit more than a normal toilet. Also your guests may never return to your house.

Oh and someday these things will be so advanced they will be considered intelligent. Terrible thought, an intelligent being whose whole life is looking where the sun don't shine.

I sometimes use C++ as a scripting language in MVC++. I'll gladly take the compilation time if it means I get to use the debugger when stepping through my code.
Ouch. Don't do that for devices. Or named pipes I guess. This idea has more problems than I thought at first.

Yeah, not when you're typing a stream of code.
Unfortunately dang is just the shield defending the dominant structure; enforcers tend to be clueless, which gives them quite plausible deniability. I doubt he even understands the nature of the damage being done.
Obviously you still have toilet paper, but in my experience some of these toilets also have air jets for drying.

> I find funny that the by investing into JITs instead of optimizing compilers for Java and .NET...

But that's because Java is meant to cover a very wide "middle" -- plus maybe a few corners where possible -- rather than every possible niche.

> Also, thanks to Oracle's disregard by mobile platforms by not providing neither JIT nor AOT compilers for Java

Well, it didn't start out that way, did it? But mobile platforms -- because they're rather tightly controlled -- are, and have always been, much more driven by politics than technical merit.

Research code is infinitely better than no code. Research papers are almost never complete enough to reimplement it (seriously - I met a lot of academicians doing it, and most of the time it was not possible without contacting authors; just - text does not compile).

As a statistican doing machine learning I think there is much more to it; You can do statistics with models. There is progress in statistics, like in all other sciences.

> Better incentives?

Yep, incentives that lead to better outcomes, from my perspective. For example, less incentive toward corruption. Chinese emperors supposedly used eunuchs as court officials so that they wouldn't be tempted to favor their children in official dealings. I don't know if that was such a great idea, but it certainly improved the incentives of the public officials from the point of view of the emperor (and possibly the people who had official dealings with the government).

> Political power is the position to do that.

Great wealth is functionally equivalent to political power.

> Asking someone to do something in exchange for money is [always] a potential trade.

I disagree vehemently with this statement. Asking someone who is dangling from a cliff for all their money in exchange for pulling them up, for example, is not a trade I am interested in promoting. Yet this is precisely the kind of trade upon which capitalism is built. It is clear to me that we will never agree, we have completely different moral codes and outlooks on the world.

> As long as it's voluntary...

This is the entire problem. Under capitalism, many / most exchanges are not voluntary. Check out the Center for a Stateless Society (C4SS) and the writings of Kevin Carson if you would like to learn more. Regardless, I never said anything about morality.

> But again, as long as there's political power, people with it will be bribed...

There is always power, regardless of whether you consider it strictly "political" (you can define away almost any problem if you try hard enough). If I'm rich and I hire a private army to coerce you into doing something, does it really make any difference whether I call myself a king? From your standpoint we haven't really "abolished" political power. In fact, the idea of abolishing (political) power is actually rather absurd to me, I would sooner expect us all to join hands and implement full communism...

"Quality" refers to the mater's metric (health genes, access to resources), which might not be accurate in our modern post-evolutuonary-pressure human society.

Proctologist?
This is a big deal, but no one wants to think or talk about it. You can start to experience this by just taking a shower immediately after anything that would normally require a bidet (read: toilet paper... or kleenex). It's quickly realised that this means a LOT of time wasted taking showers and clothes-changing to stay clean in only two areas. And I'm sure everyone shaves often enough so that nothing sticks, right? It then become annoying, as this is entirely a solved problem from the engineering side (very much "not invented here"). I don't even use toilet paper any more. However, I live in an apartment and can't afford one of these washlets anyway, yet I very clearly see the advantages.
http://www.amazon.com/Luxe-MB110-Non-Electric-Mechanical-Att...

These definitely aren't nearly as nice as the Japanese toilet (which is mostly noticed in that the temperature of the bidet water is at pipe temperature), but they do render both of your big points moot. I own one, and I highly recommend them.
User experience vs. Revenue what is more important to you?
http://thenextweb.com/insider/2015/05/17/adblockers-are-immoral-and-mobile-networks-should-know-better/

I stand in direct opposition to ads over user experience am I the only one? Ads on Facebook, twitter, google etc don't really phase me and I don't mind to be honest, because as a founder you understand that revenue keeps the lights on and it isn't terribly disruptive to the user experience. But hijacking your screen and having an awful transition prior to reading an article simply doesn't make sense.

Use adblockers you say, I can do but that doesn't change the facts or the principle on a product level.

That's just my 2 cents.

TrueConf Supports Video Coding Hardware Acceleration on Android Devices
I guess we need to establish what we're talking about here.

All those one-page ThemeForest sites with their whizz-bang animations, parallax scrolling and gazillion custom fonts are not the kind of sites I am holding up as good examples. There is a happy medium between RMS and those sites, and you can see it on sites like Facebook, Google, BBC, Trello, Basecamp, etc. It's no coincidence that the most successful sites are all rather well-designed.

If you walk into a cafe in the middle of London (or Mumbai or Rio de Janeiro) and showed three random users in a coffee shop, say, RMS's site and a BBC news page about an equally esoteric subject and asked them questions like:

* What did you learn by reading this page?

* What are your opinions of the author of this page?

then they are more likely to have positive thoughts about the BBC page than about RMS, because they are more likely to struggle with parsing the information on RMS's site, and because the RMS site simply looks 'broken' when compared to the rest of the internet.

> does not believe that there should be a trade-off between features and privacy (which is, in fact, correct)

There _is_ a trade-off between features and privacy. If I don't implement analytics, my resources are less likely to be spent efficiently, resulting in fewer features. Implementing an alternative to Google Analytics will use resources, so that will come at the expense of a feature. True, if you ask a user "should there be a trade-off between features and privacy?" they will say "no". But if you look at user behaviour, the majority of people don't care enough about privacy to give up the features. That's why Google and Facebook can be enormously popular despite their privacy invasions.
> The feeling of having a genuinely clean butt gives you the confidence you need to go crush it in the boardroom.

Can't speak to bidets, but a while back on a whim I bought some flushable moist wipes and started using just like one at the end.

Yeah knowing you have a clean butt is totally a confidence booster.

Side note: on the general toilet subject

Niagra Conserveration's 1.25 gallon flaperless toilet is excellent that thing can flush a giraffe[1].

[1]Specifically it will flush >= 1kg of soybean paste http://www.map-testing.com/map-search.html
A REPL is not necessary.
Based on trying to use toilet paper to dry off from an errant splash, it's not very good at that purpose. It's designed to fall apart as soon as it gets wet. And anything that isn't (paper towels, etc.) should really not go down the drain, as it's likely to form clogs.
I've seen hypnosis and EFT help some people with depression. Unfortunately, they seem to be a treatment options that go overlooked.
Wipe once with toilet paper and you're good to go. It's like the best of Eastern and Western civilization, coming together to clean your ass.
That JSON export is cool - how did you generate it?
So Reagent is like React + Baobab (https://github.com/Yomguithereal/baobab)? Since Clojurescript has to compile to Javascript anyway, I can't think of a reason why Javascript can't have a counterpart to Reagent.

I'm not familiar with Clojure, but it seems like atom is the data tree that holds the state of the entire application. If so, could you give an example use case of when you'd pass the data tree between threads, and what advantages it has over promises or es7 async/await.

Just to be sure, I'm not questioning the validity of your claims, I'm genuinely curious about how things work in reagent.

Tokyo alone has 25% of Japan's population. So I think it is fair to say that Tokyo and a few other cities == Japan.
Even then I don't think it's true. Some things caught on big in Japan, but in general it seems that they're no less conservative than consumers in the US. It's not like that started with smart phones, DVD and home computers took off in the US well before they did in Japan.

The downside is you have no one to recount the experience with later on, you might tell people about it but no one will ever understand what it was like unless they were there with you.
There's another potential source of the problem: the time gap in between those undergraduate lessons are learned in the abstract and the later point in time when the exercise if those lessons is required. Unexercised knowledge atrophies like any other muscle.

Perhaps rather than placing so much emphasis on memorization recall exams, undergraduate evaluation should be based on exercising the research and peer review process. The best way to learn research is to do research.
One thing I don't get is why do people prefer functions like accumulate? Why not:

int sum = 0;
for(auto&& wc : word_count) sum += wc.second
return sum;

It's shorter, more general, more familiar, possibly has better performance[[citation needed]], and gives better errors if you mess something up.

> However, I can suggest that it may be wise to use an email service that is not connected with your search engine. That way you can be almost sure that your email contents don't influence your search results. You shouldn't identify yourself to your search engine in any case.

I don't understand this, if it makes your searches more relevant to you, what's wrong?

I used duckduckgo for a while, but the results were very poor compared to Google, since Google knows what i usually search (i.e. programing-related stuff, not cooking or w/e) and what interests me.

If you fear about being prosecuted, then sure don't use the service, or you could also fight to improve regulations.
PHP has something called reactphp. However, since most PHP libs and core libs are blocking on the i/o level, it's not that useful.
I experienced the japanese toilet the first time in 2006. I was curious to try but afraid it would get messy. It takes a bit getting used to. When i came back to the netherlands, i wanted to buy one too but, like the US, no power in the toilet.

After i got my new apartment i had a power outlet built in the toilet. Now im so used to it, sometimes i even look for the remote in other peoples toilets, lol.

They say using TP only cleans 20-30% of bacteria and with a bidet around 95%. Most important is that you feel just fresher down there.

My friends coming over dont use it, but my girlfriend does and loves it.
Yes and no. Fax machines are still more popular than email in Japan.

If anyone wants to give it a try, here it is a cheaper alternate [1].

This doesn't require the electricity since it is manual but more or less play the same role like Japanese toilets (without drying facility but you can use TP after using it).

The factored keypair in question is actually a subkey on HPA's public key. However, it appears that the self signature (which is a signature on the hash of the main public key and the subkey) does not match the hash_check. The issuer of this self signature has the same key_id as HPA's main key, which is why this subkey is listed under HPA's public key.

Here's a json breakdown of the invalid hash_check: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/ba23ca66d2ca249e6f84#file-...

EDIT: It's the EXACT SAME subkey self-signature packet as HPA's real subkey self-signature packet! Someone (by malice or mistake) manually added a subkey to HPA's public key and copied the signature from the other subkey directly onto the new subkey.

These are the same:

Bad subkey self-signature: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/ba23ca66d2ca249e6f84#file-...

Are Tech and Innovation Hubs in Africa Effective?
"no plugs near the toilet in American homes"

Yes this is the reason we don't have one in our home... the licensed electrical work needed is both too much of a hassle and expensive. Electrical work, especially in the bathroom, is not something I'm willing to hack.
My (small) kids love school. School is very bad in USA and many other places, due to a bizarre set of constraints such as far too few teachers in budget.
Drafted “pilot's checklist” for evaluating seed opps
American homes are generally insulated, not drafty, and centrally heated. There is therefore no need to heat your butt to stop it freezing to your toilet seat, and so no overwhelming drive to connect everyone's loos to the mains, and all the other features aren't enough to make it a mainstream purchase.
As an Italian living in Italy (bidets in every bathroom here) I can't think of any more convenient way to clean myself after I used the WC. I experienced the Japanese one in Japan and it's not as effective, but it's better than nothing.

Did not find [package]!
Yes, I agree that you should try and find meaning in everything you do. Basically you want everything that you do in your life to be in line with your motivation and goals. It's partly a process of changing your outlook on life, and partly about making actual changes to how you live your life.

However, you should also be aware that one of the symptoms of depression is being unable to find enjoyment in activities that you normally find enjoyable. This might be the problem that throwaway3301 is experiencing.

It's not always easy to figure out what is causing depression. It's as if your brain has set off a "master caution" warning light, and you then have to figure out yourself what the problem actually is. I would recommend just asking yourself "is this what I want to do with my life" (in terms of your job, where you live, your relationships, etc.)

Also, depression can feed on itself in a vicious circle. I think this is where CBT comes in, as it teaches you to avoid negative thought patterns (although I never used it myself).
People don't know what they want package mangers to do and they had much less of a clue back when the fragmentation started. So we got rpm and deb. Arch decided these were too complicated when you wanted a rolling release so they have their own package manager. Programming languages need to have their package managers work on more than just Linux, so they make their own cross platform ones, but since the devs are only thinking about their own language they don't make something cross language.
Come now. If someone says "I have a bomb in my luggage" (as a joke), that's hardly "on any suspicion". The person has spoken what amounts to a possibly serious, realistic threat, and the security person has literally no other means of determining whether it was a joke or not.
That's for a different reason. Let's say you have 4 models of a chip, some with more internal RAM & Flash some with less and some with a couple of peripherals and features, and some with less. It is far less expensive to design one model with everything, and then disable some features either by not bonding the chip pads it to package pins or by laser cutting fuses.

One of the most expensive aspects of chip manufacturing is the setup cost, i.e. the mask and "tooling". So it is much cheaper for them to it once and have one chip that rolls of the line.

Also, things like RAM and EEPROM have fabrication errors just like other parts of the chip. It isn't uncommon to have "self healing" RAM. Basically the RAM has a few more cells or address rows more than the actual capacity. As part of wafer testing certain paths are cut so you still end up with the amount of RAM you need. Although it takes up a bit more area (because you're actually manufacturing more RAM) you still end up with higher overall yield.

So as chips come off the line, some get binned into lower grades, or RAM size and the rest of the features are disabled via laser cutting fuses or vias.
As long as the fish doesn’t work (and further research is needed to find out how to fix it), why should people pay to have it shipped anywhere? I note that it doesn’t say anywhere on the page you linked to about how the fish doesn’t work in the long term – only page after page of endorsements and accolades (and offers to sell the fish, of course).
This gem from Joel On Software (2000) blog is very relevant:

"Now, let's review some microeconomics. In a free market, it is almost axiomatic that the market always clears. That's a technical term that means that when somebody tries to sell something, if they are willing to accept the market price, they will be able to sell it, and when somebody wants to buy something, if they are willing to pay the market price, they will be able to buy it. It's just a matter of both sides accepting the market price.?"
