"The biggest source of problems might be multi-threaded programs with concurrency-related bugs that have been masked by the GIL until now."

It would appropriate to quote one old saying, possibly originated in armed forces of a certain country: "do not rush to execute an order, it will likely be canceled"

I've lived in a couple of countries where bribes are a way of life. I'm happy it's not the case in CA.

Still, does anyone here know of a country, where artificially limiting resources do not encourage to bribes? Better yet, if somebody names a country, where bureaucrats are by law forbidden to limit the resources artificially, I'll strongly consider immigrating.

I'm surprised that OP didn't notice misspelled vocher prominently visible on multiple screenshots.

Very interesting indeed: "In fact, more small-particle pollution comes from the action of car brakes and tyres than from the exhaust fumes of current internal-combustion engines – a testament to the effectiveness of catalytic converters and to modern fuel-injection systems."

Sounds like a misconfigured filter or a mistrained AI. Garbage in – garbage out.

I would not be this dismissive, considering the studies showing starkly different effects of acute vs chronic stress, for example [1].

Not that fast. Unfortunately, "Why We Sleep" appears to be rather controversial.

Feeding the licence plate databases junk is a neat, but rather expensive idea.

As it often happens, the paper is ignoring people with DSPD aka night owls. We almost never see sunrises, and I wish we had a permanent DST to have later sunsets and longer daylight.

Bitcoin crypo (sic!) in the title is funny.

Update: cool, the title is fixed, this comment downvoted.

In an unfortunate act of self-censorship, the video has been now removed from YouTube.

A nice one by Julius Comroe:

    “Serendipity is jumping into a haystack to search for a needle, and coming up with the farmer’s daughter.”

Not necessarily Google AI. But AI is already at pro poker level.

(ready to get down-voted) why would I want to opt out if somebody uses my anonymized DNA to try discovering a potentially life-saving drug?

I am over 55, software engineer from SF Bay Area. I was laid off in March and just accepted one of the offers. So, no, not leaving the tech at all.

TL;DR A dormant FB account gets highjacked, but the amateur thief forgets to change the email associated with the account. This allows the owner to deactivate the account.

I doubt the authors conclusion about russian troll though: a FB account highjacked by somebody using Cyrillic can be utilised for various purposes.

Not in the US, where majority of mortgages is 30 years fixed.

This is exactly the idea Robert Shriller suggests in his recent Narrative Economics lecture.

1. Google engineers took the challenge personally and there is no evidence suggesting Prisma capabilities were regained. 2.I tend to agree in a sense that it is rather difficult to delete all the data. But no more difficult, than to find it later when requested by law enforcement.

TL;DR imagining yourself dying every day, meditating on it, will change your brain in a way that will make you a better person. This technique is about one thousand years old.

Google search uses HTTPS and, unless you personally is a target and/or your devices are hacked, the content of your searches is not visible to anyone except Google. Your citizenship doesn't matter.

The linked Intel page is a mess.

It is titled "Linux* Processor Microcode Data File Version: 20180108 (Previously Released) Date: 1/8/2018"

Below, however, you can see highlighted "A newer version of this software is available. Click here to get the latest version of this software." This, though, points to an earlier ("Version: 20171117 (Latest) Date: 11/17/2017") version: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27337/Linux-Proces...

(one hour later) UPDATE: appears to be fixed. Well, not really, only if the link specifies the product, i.e. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27431/Linux-Proces...

I apologize for missing your question.

Well, first I used the new brackets to calculate the tax and found us slightly in the black. Then I dug out my last year tax return, added four numbers -- income tax, property tax, mortgage and donations -- subtracted proposed 24K standard deduction and applied our new bracket (35%) to the difference. Subtracted the first number. Felt robbed.

That said, I'm waiting for my CPA to get back to me with the projections for 2017 along with the tax reform impact estimate.

Not taking property and mortgage interest into account, this tool is misleading at best! I just did my projections. This calculator shows our family will benefit slightly, when in fact our taxes will increase approx. 25K or 40% per year.

The concept you described is what LAToken guys are working on.

The post is from 2011 and it's been awhile since I started using 'ip' instead of 'ifconfig', but everybody, myself included, seem to continue using 'netstat' and not 'ss'.

an afterthought: and make Equifax pay for it.
