I suppose, if the game doesn't end immediately upon solution, of course it could be possible to have both an even- and an odd-length solution: if it's possible to solve ending on a white square, then it's also possible to give a longer solution consisting of the first solution followed by winding around hitting every square on the board once more.
It cost $1000 to deploy this solution?
... also, if no one owns the registry, there are all kinds of issues with solving problems when they arise.

Mike Carson is up to all kinds of interesting stuff in the domain space.
Building a 13" MBP produces ~200kg of CO2[1]. Taking GP's 50 million figure we get 10 billion tons of CO2. Very generously assume each one gets 1000 updates, you end up with 360,000 tons of CO2 total for all of these updates, or about 0.0036% of the cost of building them in the first place.

There are actual benefits to delta updates but the environmental impact isn't one of them.

How did I miss that. Thank you very much
Element's security UI is indecipherable garbage. There's absolutely no way a casual user can figure it out. It's clear no UX designers were involved. It's clunky, buggy and feels very unstable.
It’s not dependent on size but what you do. If you run a mono stack you initially spend less time on devops than when you run microservices. Anyone that tries to tell you otherwise hasn’t done a Heroku deploy lately. When your engineers spend enough time on devops to impact productivity is when you reach for a different solution. I can only see one other reason to start with microservices: you are developing something with much higher than usual security requirements and need an “air gap” between pieces of your system. Like if you store raw credit card numbers and want to separate their storage mechanism from the res rig the system with a really tightly controlled API.

Even so, K8 is a solution where running containers on a container as a service system is prohibitively expensive. The newfangled systems aren’t free in terms of operating costs and would you rather pay for extra hardware or for engineering time, knowing that hardware doesn’t take vacations or leave your company for a better job?
If we understand "flight" as being the use of a wing to generate lift in an atmosphere, then I think we can safely say this is the first time we have flown on another planet. I assume this little helicopter actually has rotary wings rather than fans.
Oh, nice! I didn't realize that development was still happening for that, I thought it had stopped around Rust 1.20. Glad to see that it's still being developed, stuff like this will definitely be important for bootstrapping/"trusting trust".
Interesting, thank you. I wonder how well a reduced spring pressure would work for that case, though it would negate much of the advantage of transferring load to the center of the lane.
Only for fungible types of workers. Programmers, software engineers, data scientists, product managers, designers, etc aren't like farm or construction laborers. These skills aren't commodities.
Actual link? I don't remember reading this in any of the leaked documents and I can't find it now, though I could have missed it.
Exactly. I'm insulted when a conversation about immigration has a binary premise.

>Who wants to wake up in the morning and think "thank goodness some lawmaker is forcing someone smarter/better than me to live in poverty so I can have this cushy job"?

The amount of people in this thread who seem fine with that kind of thinking is really disheartening. So many programmers whose salary seems to be their guiding moral principle.

Unfortunately their system doesn't appear to accept strong passwords. When trying to sign up with a 12 character password with symbols, while I get a green checkbox, submitting causes me to get a "Requires password" dialog.

There was a size disparity there of a similar nature (although it was more like 130 vs 90 at that age most likely) with two different guys I dealt with in middle school who were just constant with the random hitting/slapping (their favorite)/other annoying/embarrassing things.

Once I got a warning (I literally dented a gym locker with his head, to the coaches amusement), the other time an in school suspension (picked up kid, threw into chalkboard), but both stopped the harassment. The other kid may have been punished too, but don't honestly care: As they were then leery of me, I was then no longer constantly harassed by them. The point isn't to "win" by getting them punished by the administration and reforming them from their bullying ways; it's to assert "I am not the lowest status guy, go find someone else to screw with"
1-8 made me smile, but #9 cracked me up. I can relate - unless bullet points on a scratch pad count as a spec.
Allow me to transfer money between bank accounts via online banking without crazy fees.

I currently transfer money between bank accounts by writing myself checks, because my bank allows me to do that for free but electronic transfers cost money. This wastes my time and waste my bank's money since it results in needless paper shuffling.
I thought Ping was writing on the wall that they were going to go start a streaming model, but I may be wrong. Alone, Ping sucks. It's a limited social site because you can't really access the music that you're friends are sharing. It's Spotify, Mog, Rdio, and Zune without the streaming service.

My guess is that they wanted to release streaming in September, but the labels weren't completely on board at that point. They needed something to show in the new iTunes, so they released Ping.
Singapore is also a police state, if you care about such things. Some choice quotes from the US Department of State:

Singapore has a mandatory death penalty for many narcotics offenses.

Singapore police have the authority to compel both residents and non-residents to submit to random drug analysis.

There are no jury trials in Singapore. Judges hear cases and decide sentencing.

You actually trust the browser less than the individual apps developed by different companies? I'd think the apps would have more security holes than a browser that's been tested and used by millions of people everyday.
Definitely not alone - great idea
> In the beginning our leaders failed to act on the guidance of the scientific and medical communities -- almost two months wasted.

Some of them still are. Bolsonaro went on TV to downplay the virus and is actively trying to reduce state agency because state governors aren't waiting on the federal government to protect their citizens.
You did the right thing, don’t let anyone pressure you to feel otherwise. Retail stocks of masks for things like painting or carpentry are not at all related to depriving medical supplies. Also for N95 masks, the filter size is about 3x wider than the size of coronavirus. Meaning it provides _a lot_ of protection. It’s not a way to fully prevent anything, but a door only 3x wide lets in way way way fewer things than not even having a wall or door at all.
It's quite possible that people think you are wearing a mask because they think YOU are sick, as that is the mask's primary effect (preventing you from spreading your disease to others)
I don't think they're saying that at all. My take was that we should treat the internet as a public space even if a web pace claims that it's private.

Getting off of Facebook directly contributes to their premise that everything online will be public. If you don't want it to be public, don't put it on the internet.

My take: Unfortunately, there are some places where we pretty much don't have a choice - banks, insurance, some government, etc. And the solution to this is to incentivize these institutions to lock things down better.
> which implies they cannot carry the infection.

You might want to update your internal definition of "immune".
Looks like you have never done computers. It is trivial to substract the well known light effect of the sat.
I love Julia and the hard work of the team behind this is very exciting!
Yeah in practice there’s just no other way in the places I’ve worked. The problem I’ve encountered still though is getting developers to estimate sufficiently to give that time. Developers massively underestimate (myself included).
Github could respond to requests that match the attack pattern with compression bombs: http://www.aerasec.de/security/advisories/html-bomb/
Agreed, I've had to cut cable locks of various diameters several times. Although it might seem easy, it's actually quite difficult, even with good-sized bolt cutters, because the cables tends to slip between the cutters instead of being cut. Hacksaws tend to slip a lot, and because the cable is made of a bunch of strands, trying to keep the saw in one location can be frustrating.

I imagine a Dremel tool with appropriate cutting disk would make short work of the cable, but between the noise and the sparks you're gonna get noticed.
And why limit yourself to software? If its wrong for a piece of commercial software to consume the RSS feed, surely its wrong for a commercial piece of hardware to allow such consumption as well. And what about network operators?
I did the math once and found it was about 7 or 8 years. That can vary quite a bit of course depending on the variables (mostly real estate trends).
I seem to recall current ads doing the same thing comparing digital cable to analog....
If it was only registered in March 2010, doesn't that cause a problem for using the Madrid-system registration to enforce the trademark against products that were released in 2009, like this one? At least in the U.S., the various presumptive benefits of having a registered trademark are much weaker if you're trying to enforce it against a usage that preceded the registration. It seems they would have to rely on the older FaceTime Communications USPTO marks in order to establish priority, but those marks are only in the narrower U.S. classes.
Pulse doesn't charge you to add the NYTimes RSS feed to their application any more than the iphone itself charges you to do it.
If they're the same thing, which thing is it? The number of pixels (virtual representations; samples) per inch of display, or the number of dots (physical representations; approximate components) per inch of display?
I live in Colorado. How much does a bookkeeper generally cost?
that makes no sense. can i view nytimes.com via an ipad? does apple make money selling ipads? well, i guess they'll have to issue a total product recall then.

at most nytimes could have introduced something like a "non-commercial utilization only" tag to their feed. in that case the ipad bundled browser would also have to block the feed, since apple isn't giving the ipad away for free.
What he mentioned about riding a bicycle instead of using a car is a huge win.

The money saved is incredible and you cannot put a price on the health benefits.
I'm pretty sure the GDPR requires notifying affected users in addition to notifying data protection agencies. I haven't seen any public statement about the breach from Facebook, yet alone received any messages from them.

Interestingly my phone number seems to have been exposed but not my e-mail address. I don't recall providing my phone number to Facebook although I do recall explicitly being asked to. I do however use WhatsApp. I wonder if there's more to this.
I absolutely loathe micro USB. I am constantly having to throw away cables that are a few months old because they no longer reliably charge my devices (PS4 controllers, Fire tablets, Bose headphones), and that's with me buying the most reliable cables I can find (Anker). Micro USB really is terrible...
> "the big bad EU will financially ruin me for my side project if I don't hire a full-time data protection lawyer", and when a fine is actually issued, it's "that's not even a slap on the wrist, who's going to care, lol"

The relevant question, then: what is the history of GDPR enforcement against small companies? Personally I have no idea, as typically only the big cases make the front-page.
Is the process per connection issue the reason why Digital Ocean etc. have so low limits on their concurrent connection settings? Even on my test database sometimes I run out of connections.
Try creating a new facebook account today. The site won't let you do that without verifying a phone number. The difficulty level increases if you try doing so behind a vpn.
Same goes for other SM sites like Twitter.

"Plans are worthless, but planning is everything" is the version I've heard.
Next you'll tell me a ball bearing is just round chunks of metal and that's all there is to it.

Many, many hours have been spent designing the command and control policies and procedures that surround weapons systems capable of quickly starting a war. It's not "just luck" anymore than a ball bearing is round metal but disdainfully looking in from the outside I can see how it might appear that way.

Of course luck is involved. Luck is involved to some degree to any human endeavor. But to say that the only reason we haven't had WW3 is luck is to discredit the work of many people and deny the agency of many others.
For anyone doing 'client work' rather than developing a single/few products, GitHub's pricing is almost prohibitively expensive.

We have a little over a hundred repositories. This puts is in the $200/mo plan for GitHub (125 repository limit).

Atlassian prices per-user. Our small three person dev team costs us nothing. We'll reach the next pricing tier when we hit our 6th developer, at which point it will cost us $10/mo and will remain that cost up to 10 developers.

BitBucket's top plan is $200/mo. That gets you unlimited repositories and users compared to GitHub's 125 repositories.

In the middle tier, GitHub charges $50/mo for 20 repositories whereas BitBucket charges $50/mo for 50 users.

If you have few repositories but many users, GitHub's pricing is advantageous. If you have many repositories but few users, BitBucket makes way more sense.
The ideal way to less work with freelancing is to get retainer contracts. Build an application for a business then charge a quarterly fee for maintenance. Maintenance is usually about an hour or two of work a month. Though I'm more in lane #1 now, I did do this for a while. I travelled a lot and probably worked 3 months/yr.
Isn't "a way to organise" (code) exactly what a framework is?
Or the title of this topic as it is right now is misleading. It says they’ve confirmed the stronger magnetic field. Ie it was either predicted elsewhere or seen elsewhere. The later would build confidence in the testing apparatus.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding the pitch from the GP, but Wyze seems like it's pretty clearly a hardware + cloud services play, similar to most other IOT ecosystems except maybe Hue. The (optional) monthly cost paid there is for loosened restrictions on an already existing works-anywhere setup— it's an upsell for power users, not a cost of entry.

This seems a lot easier to me than on-prem cloud services, either in BYOH form ("but it's just software") or as a packaged appliance ("another hub to install, really?").

I would say that the closest thing to this right now for paid is coming from the storage side— NAS providers like Synology using hardware sales to support a limited ecosystem of "one click" deployable apps. And for free, it's ecosystems like HomeAssistant, which a lot of people just deploy as a fire-and-forget RPi image, but as expected with a free ecosystem, as soon as you get off the ultra-common use cases, you're reading source code to figure out how it works, and wading through a tangle of unmaintained "community" plugins that only do half of what you want.
The problem of this phrase, which we all repeat (myself included), is that in reality you would need at least a superficial grasp of all of them, to make an informed decision of which ones you need (or want) to include in your project.

Then the thing grows to a team of 20, and you find yourself applying restrictive rules about which subset of C++ is admissible, because otherwise everyone will consider a different subset for their own code.

"You don't need to use all of the language" is a false claim that doesn't go too far without adding extra friction to the project management.
Governments gave us things like GDPR and HIPAA.
I think most parents acted the same, my mother would always tell me to get off the computer and stop playing "video games".

While i was indeed playing games... i also started reverse engineering the games at the age of 14 so i could cheat.

That started around 2006 so it was a bit more acceptable to be all day on your pc but friends/family never really understood until way later in life.
SumUp | Berlin | (Mid/Senior) Elixir Engineer | Onsite | Visa supported

We are looking for a backend engineer in the Hardware tribe to help us maintain and improve our devices. Our mPOS and printers delegate a significant part of the payment logic to the backend, giving us the flexibility and development speed which our merchants require from us. As a backend engineer, you will support our team with delivering new features to one of those devices and maintaining existing ones - transaction flows for different payment methods, firmware updates, and other integrations with our internal services. You will also migrate and maintain our terminal backend infrastructure, which includes assets management, card payment processing, hardware configuration, logging and monitoring.

Repeating the name allows some optimizations but you'd be unlikely to use or benefit from them unless you were writing functions that returns functions and you could benefit from inlining some patterns and not others.

I think I've seen the pattern in some web framework code, byte libraries, etc.

Although semantically equivalent, the optimizer treats the following differently:

f a = \b -> ...
f a b = ...

Well, if it's any consolation: my kids are teenagers, so are fully autonomous (I have to make sure they get out of bed and eat something, but that's about it), but I have many, many co-workers who are in the same position as you. I, and from what I can tell everybody else where I work, am sympathetic to the difficult position people like you are in, and are doing our best to pick up some of the slack when and where we can.

It's not open source, at least not the current version. It's under their modified version of the Business Source License: https://github.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne/blob/master/LICENSE....

This is, IMO, much better than the typical proprietary license, but it's still not open source, and the license itself says as much:

That depends on what exactly manageable means and what the risks of the cure are. The choice seems by no means obvious to me.

Here is a hypothetical example (because I don’t know much about HIV): Getting rid of frequent headaches (the hypothetical side-effect of managing a hypothetical otherwise deadly disease) with a cure that has a 1:5 chance of death doesn’t seem like a good deal to me.
I'm not sure a label mandates much without the stick of stuff penalties behind it - we've seen how well self regulation works before.
How should we do that? You would need superconducting coils on board and an extra 1000 liters of helium to cool the coils. Then run 200 Amperes through them.

You see yourself...

Earths magnetic field stretches far into space. So the particles have to be diverted from their original course only a little bit. Impossible to do that for a spacecraft. Magnetic field strength decreases with 1/(r to the power of 3).

In fact, for a small spacecraft, there are only a few hits into the electronics per day.

I know a funny story from an astronaut, who was on the ISS for a while. He told us, even with eyes closed at "night", he could see light flashes, when a particle was absorbed within his eyeball. Nice place out there...
The only way for legal sales to disrupt the existing blackmarket is to allow the new legal stores to compete on equal terms: very low taxes and allow them to deliver. Once the legal sales have reached a sufficient level of penetration then they can consider how to increase revenue and tighten the licensing(although I'm not sure why delivery is not allowed in the first place).
