"In some countries, when trademarks are transferred, there must be a continuity in the underlying product or the trademark is lost."

If you say so, but it's certainly not the case in the US, or most other countries. Ford for example regularly resurrects names like Mustang, or GT40, and there is seldom any continuity in the underlying product. BMW bought Mini from British Leyland, and developed a completely new car, which pays homage to the Mini shape, but there is no continuity between the two products.

In software there are endless accounts of "complete rewrites" which ship under the same name as an earlier product.

I think trademarks work perfectly well in the Open Source space. The project originator (usually) owns the trademark - others are free to get their own name. In this case it's pretty cut & dried. Oracle owns the product Open Office. Anyone can fork it, but the one true "Open Office" is the one from Oracle.

Now you may argue the merits of the fork surpassing the leader, and if customers buy into the argument they can "opt in" to the new fork. That's their choice. I don't think this hurts consumers, and I don't think it hurts Open Source.
I don't think they overlap too much. Rhino's primary use case is Java scripting, and it's (alleged) low performance probably doesn't matter a lot since it's just the glue that binds together heavier Java libraries. I know a handful of apps that use rhino that way: Mirth, Orion Rhapsody, Pentaho's Kettle...
Prove it's you and make Google's stock go back up.

Alternatively, get Matt Cutts to vouch for you.
I'd disagree that it's never going to be worth doing something of that scale. Protovis/D3/Raphael visualizations could easily get to that level of complexity. I've already used Protovis to display 2mb geojson files, so I think people will use all the SVG performance they can get.
Does it automagically sync file deletions and corruptions, too?

The reason why amd64 checks whether the addresses are “canonical” is discourage exactly this trick. On almost all platforms that simply ignored upper byte of pointer (m68k, s390, IIRC even early ARMs) this lead to significant compatibility issues.

As for storing tags in pointers on 64b platforms it is probably better to use the 3 low order bits. Another useful trick is what was used in PDP-10 MacLisp and is used by BDW GC: encode the type information in virtual memory layout itself.
Not sure what OP is referring to but my two cents: anyone who feels like FOMO'ing crypto should spend the next couple hours reading about Tether, and then wait a week and decide if/how much you're willing to risk.
Oh I totally agree, for me this is a matter of an absolutely backwards industry. Very often I WANT to give my money but can't find where to buy a DRM-free track, preferably in flac. And registering for 8 different stores is not a valid solution.
I think it also has to do with not wanting to accidentally ruin the legacy, like some of the successful tv series do with their last season.
I like the idea, and "actionable paid insights into the future of this tool we depend on" might be a good sell. But maybe don't make it a subscription, one off payments can be easier to get approval for even if they occur every year.

Another thought: Often devs have a yearly budget that can be spent relatively freely on training/conferences/courses/books/etc. Conferences and travel are expensive, but with everything going on it's not being used as much. I'm sure people would pay to get on a Zoom call or Q&A with a few core devs if it comes out of that budget. Price it pretty high, perhaps a few hundred $ per participant, maybe add country-dependent pricing or make exceptions for OSS projects/etc. Basically a fundraiser with a training/conference talk component.
> These multi-billion companies exploited open source software

> promoting open source movement manipulating developers into giving up their hard work for free

Make up your mind, were they exploiting open source by using it or were they getting more people to contribute to open source? You know the point of contributing to open source is it make it open source, right?

Do you exploit open source by using Linux instead of paying for Windows? Do you exploit open source by celebrating open source developers?
As one of my friend always says, "Let the rich pay for the development of the new tech, while we commoners can settle for the tried and tested."

With a newer technology, often priced higher, it's always better to wait for the 2nd or 3rd generation iteration as they usually iron out all the pre- and post-manufacturing bugs, and becomes cheaper over time (don't see that happening with Apple though).

E.g. External boot disks still don’t work properly with M1 Macs: https://eclecticlight.co/2021/02/10/external-boot-disks-stil...

Damn, now I feel like a dummy. I've been thinking about .app for years but I figured it was already in the (super long) process of getting registered.
Filtering suggests a far more mechanical process than curating. Filtering requires an algorithm, curating requires taste.
According to http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2467895 it is being used to get a faster fix for Locations based applications, so doing that would remove the ability for that work.
It's telling me I'm getting ~15 fps but it looks more like 2 fps to me. MBP, Chrome 10.

Also they F-ed up the RSS feeds. Take a look at this one for the top stories on Deadspin:

Barely anything since Feb. Before then there were 4-5 items per day.
If you plug your iOS device into another computer it won't connect to iTunes until you unlock the device. Whether that is enforced by the phone or iTunes I don't know.
"And this was the sort of place where that sort of thing was the norm — the building process and the pipeline was inefficient to the extreme, yet no one who directly managed such things seemed to care — or was competent enough to recognize it."

Well, I think the last part is universal - nobody could easily diagnose or evaluate that situation. It took W. Edwards Deming years to create a method to first convince himself that it could be done, and then more years to convince others. This is made worse by intellectual work, where standards of quality are less obvious than "length at 100mm +/- 0.01mm". I'm not saying that standards do not exist, that is a trope that must disappear, they're just less obvious.
> You can't fire a volunteer.

Its actually easier to file a volunteer, since, compared to a paid employee, they are less likely to have any claim against you if you do and they aren't happy with it.

Of course, it can be hard to get a better replacement for the same money for an incompetent volunteer in a skilled field, but that's an issue of difficulty replacing the volunteer, not difficulting firing them.
As a data point, I would like to see a language much more like C than like C++ (including, somewhat but not entirely idiosyncratically for me, no classes), but with templates and some other improvements.
They're also good with lemon juice on top if you're not a fan of Worcestershire sauce. Or you can melt cheese on top for a variation of the classic tuna-melt.

Also, if you want to avoid the extra omega 6 fatty acids, get the sardines that are packaged in water or olive oil (which is mostly monounsaturated fatty acids) rather than soybean oil.
They have an iphone app, they might simply charge for that... Id love to get this on Android..

Also a full screen option would be nice.
If it does, then he really doesn't have a love of programming. Which isn't the end of the world.

I wouldn't be too worried about losing career steam. There are plenty of things for a person who can code but doesn't have a passion for it to do. In fact, there are probably many more roles a person like this can take than someone who just wants to code all the time. And they can be a lot more lucrative.

Burnout is probably going to be a good thing. Some people need to be forced to consider alternative career paths and skills to develop. Burnout will definitely do that. The new direction will ultimately prove to be valuable later on, but you won't realize it in the moment.

Regarding point #1 - Marco's "Home Computer" is a Mac Pro (per other posts he's made) - it has Xeon proceesors, ECC RAM, etc. Much closer to a server than what you can pick up at Best Buy for $399.
Won't this just attract the slackers of the world to come live in Canada, or the part of Canada that tries this? If this is intended as a sort of experiment, it can only be done in a closed environment.
There's been some talk of making Zotero stand-alone to deal with that kind of issue, but that's enough of a project I think it will be a while still. In the meantime, a Chrome port doesn't make much sense in some ways, as it'd wind up duplicating effort with a stand-alone port. In the short term, an unfortunate blow for data portability...
The problem, of course, is that was a one-time opportunity. I can't get 30-minute intervals at will that pay anything remotely like that.

Teachers can regularly get 9 months of 37 hour weeks that pay quite well. It's not a one-time opportunity.
I'm with you.

I also ride my bike 5-7 days a week, upwards of an hour or more. It's very "liberating" and I mostly think the whole time. I don't bring any tech, just myself and the bike, moving very fast. People cant interrupt you, unless you run over one. ;)

silly, yes. but nonetheless, an accurate reflection of how many people view that sphere of activity known as "perl scripting." i.e. pretty much like bash scripting, but with slightly different punctuation.
Maybe the path of least resistance isn't the best answer. This sets a very dangerous precedent.
RAID 10 is more efficient (if that equates to performant) than RAID 6, but not more durable. In fact it's less.

As an example, a 4-disk array (which has the same capacity in both RAID 6 and RAID 10) has 4 2-disk failure modes. RAID 6 can handle all of these failure modes without losing data, whereas RAID 10 can only handle 2 of them.
> So blame Europe for not successfully countering it rather than the US for knowing how to play the game.

Can this be applied to any situation where one party found itself (through error, inaction, incompetence, inability, etc.) in a position to be dominated or abused by anther party? Or is it only selectively applied based on personal preference or inclination? Because applying it selectively is exactly the double standards people (myself included) highlighted in this thread.

This may be pragmatic but it's also vicious towards the losing party. Politicians or corporations bribing or abusing power to get away with anything know how to play the game. The people being abused or losing everything are to blame for not successfully countering them.

Double standards are a good way to justify anything to your advantage by simply flipping the argument the way it suits you. As I wrote in a previous comment, it makes for exceptionally low quality conversation.
It's a minor one, but CogoLabs (former employer) operates as a studio, and spun off AutoTegrity which sold for ~$100M.

On the other hand, Cogo hasn't had any exits since 2011: https://www.cogolabs.com/incubation
The article doesn’t but I think OP’s point was that relying on knowledge / algorithms designed and provided by others would mean an immediate fail in a FAANG interview, but it’s exactly what successful engineers do when employed at FAANGs.

Not sure the source of downvotes, what you are saying seems true. From my experience they will generally not even interview a new grad who has experience for E3 jobs with an internal referal.
I'm not sure PPP is a great measure here.

It works best when comparing people with relatively similar consumption, e.g. asking about the material lives of engineers in east- vs. west-germany. Both had cars, radios, apartments with indoor plumbing, and awful haircuts, but they paid for them with different money. Any exchange rate was basically a fiction, but even if the currencies had been freely traded, these two still couldn't buy each other's goods.

Some people in India have lives similarly comparable to the west, e.g. the class who buy iphones. But the ones who make this super-cheap data interesting really don't. I mean there are riots when the price of onions doubles after a poor harvest. It's difficult to imagine a shared basket of goods which meaningfully captures the comparison here --- between prices experienced by those whose weekly budget can flattened by onions, and people in the US.

Probably a better comparison would simply be to quote daily wages alongside such prices. GDP is about US$5/day, compared to about $175/day in the US.
> VSCode is winning the editors war

In what sense is there a "war"? That's a serious question. Emacs, VS Code, and quite a few of the other popular editors are open source. You can download them and use them. I have both Emacs and VS Code on my machine, and I use both of them, but for different purposes.

Now, if you wanted to talk about a war between open source and traditional closed-up-tight, walled-garden commercial software, I could get on board. It's really hard for me to understand your framing when you have freely available products that are not in any way exclusive.

On your other point, if I were to speculate, I'd say VS Code's main advantage is that it doesn't have a 1970's graphical interface. Port GNU Emacs to Monaco, give it some good default settings, and see what happens to adoption.
Why would you want to remove charge backs? If you pay for something and don't get it, have your payment instrument stolen, get tricked by a scam, etc then charge backs seem like an excellent tool to have. Charge backs are also not independent of the courts, if you trigger an illegitimate charge back then the counterparty can sue you.
The iPad is a lifestyle device, whereas the Surface is a productivity device. The iPad Air 2 is deathly thin and a bit lighter. It is also much much more simpler, has many more (interesting) applications tailored just iPad, where as using the Surface as a tablet is more iffy (ms's app store is filled with garbage and tons of rip offs and clones). When it comes to consumer purchases, play always wins over work. It's Microsoft's job to market this tablet to the masses, so the productivity angle is not very persuasive.
One certainly can. Not to invoke Godwin's law, but you're relying on the Nuremberg defence (which was ruled invalid).
Not on people with COVID-19.
I agree that this could be done in principle, and even that it isn't unlikely that people are thinking about doing it. But is there any evidence that such a subsystem has ever been created? Are there any additional technical details surrounding this?

It’s a fully general argument against trusting knowledge gained from surveys, and I do think we should be skeptical that voters always know what they’re doing. Particularly for elections they aren’t paying attention to.

The “will of the people” is something of a myth. Votes go in and the algorithm makes a decision. Do you feel represented when the decision isn’t what you wanted?

But it’s not an argument against elections because I’m not claiming I have a better idea. We do need some peaceful way of making decisions that people will accept. A legitimate, accepted process beats chaos, and new processes aren’t easily adopted.
That would also increase an incentive to cover-up the misconduct.

I think the best first step would be to increase transparency and accountability. For example, large number of cities did not even respond to the FIOA request. Also, I read that many Police misconducts are not even tracked at federal level and civil forfeiture has little oversight.
I've never heard of or used Roku before, from a quick search it seems to be a chromecast style stick to plug in to a TV to watch stuff, is there any reason you couldn't plug an RPi or your desktop straight into the TV to watch from?

I've got a PhD in psychology. I have things. I. could. say. about this topic. But I would like to emphasize, in the strongest of terms, that Cronbach's alpha is not a measurement of test-retest reliability. Cronbach's alpha is a measure to answer the question, "If we ask five questions to measure the same thing, how well do they agree?" Test-retest reliability says, "If we ask these same questions X days/months/years later, how likely is it we'll get the same answer?"

Past research on this latter form of reliability (test-retest) on the MBTI have found it to be quite weak; yes, I'm sure it's probably more favourable if you don't binarize the measures. But it's still weak. If you're interested, the references on the "Reliability" section of the Wiki page[1] is a decent place to start.

My biggest issue with the MBTI, however, is that it gets used to make important decisions like whether to hire someone, despite little to no evidence for its validity in terms of predicting on-the-job performance. And that's extremely concerning. Quite frankly, personality tests have very little place in hiring assessments at all -- often the primary dimension employers care about is conscientiousness, and those questions are generally too transparent to be reliable for someone who has a vested interest in getting a job. Are you really going to report that you are "someone who tends to be disorganized" when you're trying to get hired?

If you're an employer looking for ways to find the best candidates, then you have a responsibility to ensure that the methods you're using to test someone's fit are a reliable indicator of their actual fit. Interpret "fit" how you like, but generally speaking, you want measures that are going to actually tell you how well that person will do with the tasks they would be performing. You're going to have much better luck with a take-home assignment or temporary contract than you will reading the tea leaves of MBTI, or even using an established, valid test like the Big Five Inventory. These measures just aren't meant for what you're trying to use them for.

I've given up during the time when ISIS regularly posted videos on social media. I've reported a video with a literal beheading about two thirds of the video in, and it didn't go against Facebook's community standards.

I guess whichever moderator saw it didn't bother to skip ahead during those like 5-10 seconds they reach their decision in.
No, of course you're right, I'm just bit too comfortable in my own domain.

For smaller data (and here that would mean few hundreds GB which is pretty huge by normal standards) OLTP databases would cover you pretty well. Oracle has some fancy bitmap indexing, MS SQL even has columnar tables, and pretty much anything has partitioning.

Parquet is really cool - especially there's like 30 x ratio between "generic oracle table" and gzip compressed parquet file so scan time are really in a different world.

But by itself parquet doesn't solve a whole lot - where are the files stored and what scans them? What happens if someone is updating the files while someone else is reading them?
I recognize that the terms of the debate might not be what I would choose. But I'm more concerned about the practical impact on my children than the ideological content of the debate. If the gifted programs are not actually having a causal positive impact on my children, I don't care so much if they are cancelled, no matter why they are cancelled. I am less interested in the ideology of the two sides of the debate, although I respect that other people feel differently and I don't wish to foreclose on other people arguing that aspect of things.
Yes, I've written up a blog post on how we do it: http://www.boxever.com/haproxy-monitoring-with-prometheus

It's been very useful.
The "URL router" in my current project begins with "onhashchange = function () {" and is essentially a five line conditional. It might grow to ten lines. All it does is set the root props based on query parameters. Not rocket science. I'm using Fetch.js and a Promise polyfill in order to do AJAX stuff (the native XHR API is a bit tedious).

But basically the answer is: yes, you can! You can even write an SPA using nothing but the regular W3C APIs! React just makes it very easy to keep the DOM in sync with your application state.
That's an SSD by rather loose analogy. It used regular semiconductor memory to implement a disk, which makes it closer to a ramdisk. The data was volatile, and would disappear without power either from the bus or from battery.

If this is an SDD then a USB memory stick is also an SSD.

Good to know. Using edge side includes may be easier than trying to change the app to a semi single page app. But that only solves half of the problem. The other half is varying the response based on the value of a specific cookie.

I've updated the blog post with information regarding edge side include.
That's not the only alternative. And if your answer personally is not to tip, I think you have to ask yourself whether you're not tipping has made an impact on the policy, is is your action just hurting the poor sap who happened to serve you with no connection to a broader movement to spark change?
