Well put.

I am picturing as a triangle of three perspectives. That also gives you three (or 6) possible cross-perspective stories.

The dynamics between these perspectives are where things start to get squirrely. 2021 memestocks like gme are good examples. Game perspective (no. 3) was the main story. Short squeezes. Retail investors getting cut off, etc. The stock perspective (no. 2) is now all about game investors. Can the stock attract or sustain all this interest from day traders and such.

Company performance (perspective 1) is affected more by the company's stock than the other way around.

Well I mean what's wrong with adding a file to /etc/paths.d which is picked up by the default shells using /usr/libexec/path_helper

It works for Mactex without fucking with the system folders.
Interesting to hear. Not sure how this half-open/half-closed source will work. Something like Red Hat? Then what about a CentOS equivalent for Atom?

Take him up on this offer, I don't price match. ;)
The utility has an easement for the lines and have the right to maintain trim trees, etc.

The family farm I worked on had a easement/right of way for a pipeline and power lines... they actually maintained a road at their expense to access a valve.
Diapers are cheaper, and disposable diapers more widely available. That could potentially shift the scales for what is more difficult (hand washing diapers vs training at a young age whereas now: disposable diapers and wait until training is easier)
Refactoring of software is here to stay, whether it is monolith or Microservices, we need to refresh the codebase based on changes in use cases/product, technical evolution & new learning. Software is a living thing. We need gardeners to prune, clean & replant regularly. If we do not mess around with it, it is going to die with time.
It’s not about make-work. It’s about the intersection of what the military says it needs, what congress folks can get away with, and what contractors lobby for to “maintain the industrial base”.

Building parks & hospitals doesn’t contribute to national defense, and it doesn’t develop or maintain the skills of welders who can join absurdly thick plates in the hull of a ship, or folks who can work with composites and thin aluminum, etc.

I’m not arguing that the system is working or that we have the right balance. But it’s not a simple “don’t build bombs, build hospitals” dichotomy.
For a right price, politicians can pass any laws just for you. This whole thing is an amazing case study.
The Tejas is terrible. There's a reason why India is trying to buy better aircraft.
Uh, ok? Then the capital requirement is completely different, which wasn't the point of my example.

100 shares @ $73, $7300 total cost = $16800 value AH (+130%)

1 2/26 $80c @ $1400 premium = $8800 value AH (+529%)
Rather than using Emacs standalone, I like using ratpoison as the window manager. That way I can have a full screen Emacs and easily use other applications, too. Bonus points for not having to use the mouse for any of it.
This sentiment is how I felt about Grails a while back.

I think the big issue is versioning. Learn it! A.B.C

Changes in C denote bugfixes, small changes, etc.

Changes in B denote feature additions/deprecations, non-API breaking changes, etc.

Changes in A denote major architecture changes and/or backwards incompatibility.

THUS:

Everything with "A.x.x" is compatible with previous versions of A.x.x.

Everything with "A.B.x" is compatible with everything else of A.B.x.

As the author stated, Scala 2.8 should have been Scala 3.0. It seems to me the author is less peeved about the change itself, than the confusion caused by not using version numbers the way many people expect, i.e. with meaning.
FreeBSD's IP stack is about 1/4 the size of OpenSSL. (And a hell of a lot easier to read, too.)

EDIT: If you exclude sctp, the remaining IP/UDP/TCP/ICMP parts are 1/8th of the size of OpenSSL.
Not useful for the many gifted students who are not white.
That's called a backdoor and it happens a lot. You sell it to a buddy that kicks back 150% then he sells for 200% on ebay you both win.
Right, there were some but effectively the MSRP was more around $500 usd, manufacturers like Zotac were selling for that as I recall.

But if you're buying in a different country you don't have the tariffs I would assume.
> Or they are outright lying.

It seems unlikely Apple is going to outright lie about something like that considering it could open them up to serious legal liability (CCPA, GDPR, etc).
Someone linked you to the Wikipedia article, and I just want to quote this bit of it:

> and the inverted Soviet form something menacing or dysfunctional, satirizing life under a communist dictatorship

A proper use of the "In Soviet Russia" meme isn't just reversing the words to make it sound like "Russian"; it' supposed to also suddenly construct a sentence that implies something dystopian. (And ideally, somewhat humorously, usually contextually so.)

I think the right ones are generally only at "sensible chuckle" level — you're not going to die laughing usually. I don't think the one above really fits the template though.
Sure, the fees have disappeared for tenants, but not for landlords! I know because I've been renting myself till last summer. It's a step in the right direction.

In a place such as Oxford or Cambridge you have tons of overseas landlords. Thus, agents are typically extracting fees from them by claiming the tenant has left and the house needs to be readvertised. But, in reality, the tenant wanted to renew the contract. Since they are not on-site, let alone managing the property themselves, it's easy to trick them.

In other words, agents often have a perverse incentive to force a high tenant turnover. Some agents are not like this because they are more ethical, or because they guarantee a minimum income per calendar month. But, on average, it's a very nasty market as you've noted.
Which is why they: do WWDC, provide Xcode for free, put machine learning acceleration into the M1, created a brand new Virtualization framework, demoed Linux on the M1 Macs, develop their own professional software for Macs (Final Cut, Logic)..?
How many of you rushed home from school to get your daily turns in? One that I played (maybe called Dikumud?) had some turn based aspects that would reset everyday. Would fly to my room after the school bus to fire up the modem and the IBM clone PC to get connected and get my action in!
> > Do you have constructive suggestions how to communicate changes

That one kinda got me, when python intentionally has a runtime developer-to-developer communication system, per say:

https://docs.python.org/3/library/warnings.html
In my (probably overly simplistic view), a generator-motor system will have roughly constant energy efficiency as you make it larger and larger, while the energy efficiency of a purely mechanical system will decrease, as you spend more and more energy on moving the mechanical connections which increases in mass by the cube, while your energy gathering surface goes up by the square.

So for example if you had some wind drive automata that plowed a field for you (and assuming constant wind), if you were talking about a machine that worked 1m^2 per minute, a purely mechanical system would have higher energy efficiency. But if you made the design larger so it could work 4m^2 or something, the now you have higher energy efficiency with a generator-motor system.
To further this many libraries offer a very weird but usable ebook system which gives you the best of both worlds

I don't think it's fair of you to comment on the people involved in the execution of this. What do you know about anyone on the WakeMate team?
Actually i haven't seen any scrolling performance issues on Nexus S so far.
I noticed a somehow weird thing -- most of this guides mention "use namespaces".

As far as I remember, having no namespaces wasn't that much of a problem 5 years ago. They used static class methods and that actually looked like a good ol' double-colon syntax. With that kind of atrociousness php team had put into the language and labeled "namespaces", I'd still resort to doing static methods, if I was still doing php. Backslashes? Really?
>when I've had the time to develop that "first principles" knowledge, I can usually grasp and understand the significance of minutiae.

Well, the fact that you've found what works for you is a good thing. However, 'first principles' is subject to subjective interpretation. You can 'go down the rabbit hole' as it were, to any level. Should you have deep knowledge of electronics before learning computer science? Should you have deep knowledge of physics and chemistry before learning electronics?

In my opinion after a certain level, all knowledge is multi-disciplinary, and the boundaries of what constitutes roots, branches, leaves is extremely fuzzy. Also the distinction between theory and practice makes the boundaries even fuzzier.

For me exercise is vital, it wakes me up better than caffeine ever has. Working up a light sweat and getting your heart rate up seems to increase mental sharpness, likely due to the norepinephrine response.
Run. Lift. Meditate. Build stuff.
I can appreciate the technology behind it, but I still don't find it artistic or appealing. It's also amusing how the reaction to "I don't like any generative art I've seen" is "We'll then you clearly haven't seen this one." For whatever reason, I get the same reaction when I tell people I don't like beer. They insist I try their favorite beer. This strategy hasn't worked.
Related to selleck's answer, I enjoy the lecturer in these FSU course videos:

Well, I went and made my own email server, and as of last week, I only depend on google calendar, which in a month, that will be over too.

A better solution might be to check the wifi status periodically and take some action based on the status.

Even better, find out why it is happening and fix that.

Even better-er, add some sort of anti-squirrel weapon.
> We don't allow foreign raiding parties to enter our country to loot private businesses.

Really? The US government does just that, by mass spying of telecommunications.
Seriously, I had one page hang for about a second before responding, and honestly thought that was just my crappy wifi card(and may very well be).
As stated above even if he is doing that its implied, not a direct statement. Assume away. Also, doing this will actually make your connection worse as that connection will always be more latent.

Think of it this way. When you stream a movie from Netflix it is one TCP session. Not 5, 10, etc. So if you load balance to your neighbor your stream will be worse by default. This is not equal cost load balancing, this is a hack that isn't what it seems and there are a lot of people commenting that have, apparently, little to no knowledge about basic network fundamentals.

Try it and prove you've doubled your bandwidth. There are tens of logical reasons why this doesn't work.
Even "different shades" is a generous description of the chosen colors. And I'm not even seeing graphs until I click through, just a white box. Hopefully the first and last time TC embeds this junk.

We need robots than.
That's good advice. We're interviewing 21 groups a day, and we have to converge on a decision in 10 minutes, so there is nothing more important than speaking plainly. Trying to decode marketing-speak exhausts us.

I think people use marketing-speak to seem more impressive, but on us it has the opposite effect. The phenomenon is very much like the artificial diction that inexperienced writers so often adopt, and which does nothing but get in their way.

I know it's bad form to quote oneself, but I can't put it better than this:

"When you're forced to be simple, you're forced to face the real problem. When you can't deliver ornament, you have to deliver substance."

Perhaps you should showcase some of those themes in the screenshots... I, too, dismissed your extension out-of-hand, and only noticed the theme selection dropdown after reading your comment.
The title reads like it's an article from The Onion and I blame marketers for that. "Cloud computing" is no more than letting someone else handle your server layer to varying degrees. Yes, there may be some bells and whistles here and there but, at it's core, they are still servers sitting in someone's colo. They aren't magical, they don't "manage themselves", and they aren't immune to downtime. You still need to work to ensure stability. In some cases, you will even need to work harder to do so.
Oddly similar to my article in GigaOm last year. http://gigaom.com/cloud/nosql-is-for-the-birds/
FTA:

“Molester, pervert, disgusting, an embarrassment, creep. These are all words I have heard today at work describing me, said in my presence as I patted passengers down. These comments are painful and demoralizing, one day is bad enough, but I have to come back tomorrow, the next day and the day after that to keep hearing these comments. If something doesn’t change in the next two weeks I don’t know how much longer I can withstand this taunting. I go home and I cry. I am serving my country, I should not have to go home and cry after a day of honorably serving my country.”

Good. Fuck you, anonymous TSA screener. You feel bad about groping people all day and helping move this country closer to a police state? Find another job.
It may be irrelevant in the big picture, but I think it's quite relevant and interesting from a psychological point of view that talented individuals sometimes have difficulty judging their own work because, from their perspective, it was easy and obvious.

It seems particularly relevant for mental or theoretical work where choosing the right approach has a great deal of leverage. If "all" you have to do is "just" look at a problem in a certain way, or examine the equation like so, or frame the issue from a particular viewpoint, then the resulting breakthrough may simultaneously be quite stunning to people who didn't think of it and quite obvious to people who did. Changing your viewpoint is as easy as deciding to do so - it's a task that doesn't even require the mental effort of, say, memorizing the dictionary, or similar feats of mental and memetic agility. But knowing that you can change your viewpoint, and choosing exactly the right viewpoint to use, is an extraordinary ability that not everyone has.
That's a terrible situation. I'm very sorry for your loss.

My father has conveyed to me some enormously valuable things over the years. When his time comes, I think a major part of dealing with it, for me, will be both preserving these things and passing them on. If you can put to paper some of the wisdom he's given to you, and then spread that to others, I'm sure you'd be doing him proud. And beyond that, I'm sure you'd be doing something beneficial for yourself and for us all. Good luck.
Not disagreeing with the math or anything... but does anyone see the stomach and lungs and stuff are? I mean, since we don't have a true global source of x-rays there's bound to be some shadowing (ass cheeks for an example), and all the stuff going on in the chest looks like a combination of shadowing, artifacts, and human mind gone wild?

If we can only see the shin bones cause there's like half a centimeter of flesh there, how can we see the lungs without seeing the rib cage???
The problem is that there are far too many fields to master in any one lifetime. You can't simply Google away any question you ever have; that's why people like Derek Sivers who go out of their way to give little highlights, even if they're "simple", are so important.
Justification: Piracy is not theft because most of the profits doesn't go to the creator/artist/developer but to corporate management/share holders who cannibalize their zoo of creator/artist/developer they keep in the backyard. Only very few members of their creator/artist/developer zoo become stars and get some publicity in order to keep customers believe in the system that they pay honor the creativity of the creators. The truth is though that there are plenty of creative people around who can do well without the corporate PR machinery.
I actually have heard random people I do not know discussing Swype in public. It is actually a fairly big deal for hardcore texters (read: people ages 12-22 who use cellphones).
A Lichess is a female Lich.

How many D&D scenarios have you play a game of chess against a Lich?

Sometimes, I feel it worthwhile to waste karma on these musings. Daydream more often.
The secret is subtracted, but is not taken by someone else, unlike with theft. Instead it is destroyed. If you want to equate it to a physical crime, vandalism or criminal damage would seem to be a better fit.
Just a note, in case people don't know, right now Google TV has no 3rd party Android apps. Only web apps which can't interface with any of the TV components which is where the coolness occurs.

3rd party Android apps aren't supposed to come out until Q1, but I'm not sure they are going to hit that date considering the "don't show anything at CES" stance Google has recently taken.
Another nitpick, several good quicksorts use insertion sorts for small sets which absolutely trounce the bubble sort. (I really think the bubble sort should never be mentioned; it's unintuitive and slow as tar. Teach the insertion sort!)
I recall reading it in an article about child porn a while back, and so don't have a citation off-hand. A bit of googling hasn't turned up that exact fact from any reputable source, although I have seen some other people mentioning it, along with quotes supporting the assertion (which I haven't been able to find the source of, strangely).

As early as 2007, the FBI did post links which claimed to be child porn as part of sting operations[1], and I remember reading about that in the past, so the fact might have gotten confused over time; it's also possible that I saw it in an article which I simply haven't been able to find. However, I'll retract that statement until I'm able to find a citation.

OK, so in that case what http://llvm.org/docs/FAQ.html#platformindependent is telling me is that it's not possible to produce said LLVM bytecode from C or C++ code in general, right?

And if I read http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html correctly, some bitcode is "not supported by all targets". How is that reconciled with "100% platform and architecture independent"?
The issue is that Google is (or at least appears to be) actively pursuing this type of black hat SEO and trying to remove it from its search results. That's an uncomfortably high risk margin, especially since it seems that this company's business is highly dependent on those search results.

(Certainly, I wouldn't want to invest in a company that relies so heavily on black hat SEO, whether my own or someone else's.)
That's the difference between distributive and integrative negotiations. The tactics listed in this post are mostly for distributive bargaining, which works more when you have some set pie that you're dividing up (it's a zero-sum game), as opposed to coming up with out-of-the-box solutions, and particularly if you don't expect to have to deal with the other person again. Part of the beginning of a negotiation is figuring out which path the negotiation is going to go down. Textbooks on negotiation cover both - distributive approaches just make for better "quick advice" and "self help" content, particularly since advice on integrative approaches is a bit less actionable.
The thrust of this article seems to be not so much that the science is bad ("I could discern nothing rebellious in his careful work as a scientist"), but that the book doesn't portray a balanced view of the good science that's out there on both sides. It may, perhaps, fall into the Kuhn-inspired trap that the revolutionary, paradigm-shifting scientists are to be explicitly sought out, but hopefully at least some of those scientists are resistant to that mantle.
If you're comparing short-term profits it might be significant, in that it could indicate whether the profits indicate sustainable growth or just "eating the seed corn" via R&D cost cutting which sacrifices future profits. Though over a long period (but how long? years? decades?) it shouldn't matter, since as you point out if past R&D expenses were effective from a business POV they should be reflected in future profits.
You could be a "kernel hacker" though, particularly if you're working on kernel-mode device drivers without support from the hardware vendor.

To me, a "hacker" is someone who is involved in finding ways to get systems to perform in a manner outside the intention of its design. E.g., hotrodders could be considered car hackers.
If you do your research you should know that range already. In which case open with 80-100 or more depending on the company and the arguments you can make to back up your value. If you do this then you've fixed the entire discussion at the high end. If the other party opens with say 50k then it's going to be very hard to argue it up to 80k.

As I said, you do have to research things first and if you really don't know then you just have to wait for the other guy to name something first. Since you don't know they can name whatever they like.
No. Functional programming does not magically free you from "state". The world has state, the unlimited number of real world inputs are the state of the program, merely expressed as function parameters. The CPU itself has registers, and stores a call stack.

The abstraction of functional programming does not alleviate all of these issues, and can introduce other ones.
