> identifying the bugs that junior developers have written

Bugs are written by all seniority levels of engineers. “To err is human,” after all. Junior developers hold no monopoly on mistakes.
If you want a serious analysis of money handouts by a macro hedge fund manager, including how it worked in the past, look up Dalio's PDF on the topic:

https://economicprinciples.org/downloads/MMT_%20MP3_MK.pdf

Universal Basic Income is just one of the configurations in which the next big stimulus may be deployed. There's plenty of others, and it's informative to understand the continuum.
I get that you have the caveat and all, but seriously? The tech industry has widespread cooperation with a regime in China that is brutalizing Hong Kong and committing ethnic cleansing of the Uigurs--and you want to know if he can sleep at night because he codes software to show ads for socks to people that don't want to see ads (but somehow can't bring themselves to live without content that's ad supported)?
Zed had a satirical site called "Zed's so fucking awesome" mocking the whole 'Ruby rockstar' thing in the late 2000s. A bunch of people didn't get the joke and got really angry at Zed. [1]

Zed also pointed out some genuinely bad stuff that was happening in the rails community in: http://harmful.cat-v.org/software/ruby/rails/is-a-ghetto which made them more angry.

Edit: a user points out below that post came before the ZSFA site. I'm not sure that matters.

He also claimed Ryan Dahl ripped off Mongrel's HTTP parser. The flip side of this (which I've heard from someone else involved in node) is that Ryan Dahl is super talented and just read the damn HTTP spec like Zed did. I honestly don't know enough about HTTP parsers to say either way.

Zed's talented: Mongrel and Lamson are in the top of their categories. Learn C The Hard Way is a modern, but still fundamental C book. Any interaction with Zed I've ever had has been brilliant.

[1] The people who got angry at ZSFA in the late 2000s are probably the same people who write Jenn Schiffer angry tweets for writing tech satire these days.
There's a typo in your URL.

I think, it's pretty tough to compete with Twitter. Why? Because people see Twitter already as a micro-journalism platform and live-streaming is more or less live-journalism. Or at least, this is one way to use it and this helps to gain a lot of traction fast.

I never tried any live streaming. If I were to start today, I'd use the platform with the most users and least effort to get into. Which is probably going to be Periscope.
The closest comparison that comes to mind for Rust traits is Haskell type classes, except for some (important!) implementation details like Rust's static monomorphization. You even get something similar to existential types with trait objects.
Yeah, I'm looking for a rock star full stack virologist.
Disclaimer: I work for upclose.me

I think Periscope is great. Other than the nice logo, Meerkat was always very rough around the edges, Periscope actually looks very nice in comparison.

It also has less latency.

We are obviously looking at the competition very seriously, here at upclose. For now, we have confidence in our ability to compete. Though we haven't managed to ride the hype wave like Meerkat and Periscope, we have steady growth.

We are also the only platform that also exists on web and Android, and with virtually no latency.

I would love to hear your thoughts on upclose
If you have never touched Haskell before, I would recommend reading the first 4 chapters of Learn You a Haskell[0] first. LYAH has a much more gentle introduction to Haskell, and really helped me grasp the basics.

After those chapters I would highly recommend working through Write Youself a Scheme, using LYAH as a reference when you need a more in-depth explanation of something. This is how I taught myself Haskell, but I realise that this approach might not work for everybody -- YMMV.

Eli, thanks for the article, it is a very detailed article about AirFrance crash! Human errors are not avoidable, but I think there must be some new way to at least reduce the risk.. I am thinking very hard on it..
> Over a hundred yrs ago, they could already determine intellect, moral fortitude and other important parameters just by looking at a human's face and skull form.

Do you have anything more about this?
OK we just had a big Amazon outage and someone compares no redundancy costs vs Amazon. You need to double your dedicated hardware costs if you dont want to go down when the data centre goes down. Your Amazon costs include a whole lot more redundancy if you architect well.
I believe github is doing exactly this "Powered by the Dedicated Servers and Cloud Computing of Rackspace Hosting®"
Thanks for the bug :) Fixing it right now :)
The metaphor works if you pretend 101 is on the east coast and the 280 on on the west coast. :D
Those are definitely fake. The font for the Nintendo logo in one of the pics is Pretendo with uneven spacing between letters.

This will probably run OpenCL like the 3DS does.
Sure, there are exceptions. But the entire purpose of labour unions is to engage in anti-competitive behaviour.
It was super stressful trying the crying it out method for our first child. (Now we have six.)

What eventually worked, and in hindsight it makes a lot of sense, was to respond to their cries at longer and longer intervals, (e.g 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, etc.)

At some point it seems babies get this wrong idea in their head that they are helping you when they are crying out.

This slow weaning of response time teaches them that you are in fact close by, so it reduces their stress.
In my lifetime, if I were to compare 3 numbers - no. of hours there was no electricity (X), no. of hours there was no mobile data coverage so that I could continue doing transactions without electricity (Y) and no. of hours Fedwie/ACH was down (Z) which prevented me from bank transfers, I'd say X and Y and at least 2 orders of magnitude bigger than Z.

If Fed/ACH going down for a few hours bothers you a lot but electricity/mobile network reliability doesn't faze you, you must be living in a truly unique place.
To add to that, fines can and do bankrupt small businesses. I cannot remember the last time a big company went bankrupt by fines. Breaking the law poses existential threat to small businesses, not large enterprises.
Thanks! Yeah we were recently pointed to Motif by some of our early users. Have loved seeing their enthusiasm for it, hoping we can provide a great experience as well.
Any chance of thunderbolt 3 support? If the module port adapters are just (port) to usb-c on the inside then this seems unlikely
Please support the Linux Vendor Firmware Service https://fwupd.org/ :-)
The union will always be on your side, it's their reason for existing and what you're paying them for. They will support the most indefensible position you can throw at them because it's their job.
Another headache induced by analytics is how one will sometimes need to discard an efficient and effective feature design and build it differently in order to be able to track use of the feature properly. It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the amount of time and energy burned on implementing analytics equals or exceeds that of the work on the feature it's tracking.
I wouldn't call it Hypocrisy, I would call it bias.
The NSA should just leak documents showing all of the other governments doing this stuff so we can move on from the Anti US/UK circle jerk. Seriously if you think your government hasn't invested serious time and money in digital subterfuge you are living in a dream world and need to wake up.
How is the stability of wifi?
It isn't a war. Nobody dies.

There is nothing for US government agencies to do. When a bank gets robbed because they held their money in a cardboard box instead of a vault, the question is not what the FBI can do to prevent that. The location of the problem is not the government. The location of the problem is the cardboard box.
Not a counter argument at all. You've just shown that any more time on you will be wasted. There will always be types like you. Nothing to do but write you off.
I was going down a steep hill near my parent's place, with a downhill MB?

New hydraulic disc brakes (Avid Codes, I think), happened to brake on the front a little too hard, and not enough on the rear.

I suppose it really depends on how much you ride - if you ride a lot, eventually you're going to have a scrape (hopefully minor). You can't predict everything that's going to happen on the road.
That defeats the purpose of the button then. The Dash is supposed to prevent you from having to pull out your phone to order things. For example, you notice your detergent getting low, you notice the Tide Dash button right in front of you, you push the button and voila, 2 days later your next box of Tide is on your door step.

there is no version of the GL-enabled maps that ever ran faster or better for me than the basic tiled original.
AFAICT no one has ever been able to distinguish a particle whose wave function has collapsed from one that hasn't.

That would of course allow faster than light communication by modulating the "collapsedness" of a stream of entangled particles.
You thinking this is one day early?
There is something even better - influence. The people that hold the power and the money have barely any time. But the ones with soft power, the grey cardinals, the connectors ...

How was my statement arrogance? Stating a fact isn't arrogance, no matter what people say. It's a fact. Saying "it's a shame that people litter when trashcans are available" shouldn't merit a response of "I really hate how these anti-littering people say it's a shame that people litter. I would rather they appeal to my sense of equanimity." Give me a break, please.

Telegram has been implicated in a number of privacy scandals, and then their responses critique the authors of the indictment rather than actually criticizing the arguments themselves. Signal, even up to the recent critiques by Cellebrite, immediately responds and them discusses the merits of the claim.
I wonder what exactly Jim did during his last stint at Intel? An older article said...

> As far as we understand, Jim’s goal inside Intel was to streamline a lot of the product development process on the silicon side, as well as providing strategic platforms though which future products can be developed and optimized to market. We also believe that Jim Keller has had a hand in looking at Intel’s manufacturing processes, as well as a number of future products.

https://www.anandtech.com/show/15846/jim-keller-resigns-from...

Did he fail at whatever he attempted to do or did Intel fail him? I would guess the latter.
A classmate of mine in HS always played with his TI in class and I had a similar calculator (TI-84 plus silver edition). I asked him what he was doing and he introduced me to basic logical operators to make math class easier. That’s how it all began for me.

Will, if you’re reading this, I owe you my career!
> running anything related to AI involves GPU instances

This is not true. A _lot_ of AI applications use algorithms such as logistic regression or random forests and don’t need GPUs - partly, of course, because GPUs are so expensive and these approaches are good enough (or more than good enough) for many applications.
The terms should be what a reasonable person actually reads when going through their registration process.

When I signed a mortgage contract, I had to separately initial every single page and the closing attorney summarized the contents of each section of the contract. That should be the experience they replicate if they want their TOS to be legally binding.

>"Here’s an example of an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). It consists of

1. logic blocks which can be configured by the designer to perform a multitude of functions (some FPGAs do contain some dedicated blocks such as DSPs multipliers, etc),

2. I/O blocks that can be configured by the designer as interfaces to practically any external device, and

3. an interconnect fabric that allows the designer to connect the blocks as needed.

Here’s an example of a

CGRA (Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architecture).

It consists of

Logic Units that are similar to the simple ALUs found in processors

(but no out of order processing, pipelining, microcode, etc)
an interconnect mechanism that connects to nearest neighbors. This allows the FUs to be connected into pipelines to perform complex calculations

FPGAs are more flexible but are difficult to program, and programming takes more time. FPGAs can be configured to perform the functions of CGRAs, but in general cannot be reconfigured as easily and quickly.

CGRAs are more targeted at specific applications such as High Performance Computing.

I have read that Intel and Xilinx are or will produce FPGAs that can be reprogrammed such that only differences between old and new configuration need be done…. this allows equivalent function blocks ton be established and only the interconnects to be changed."
I don't really see it as "the other side". Identifying root cause of behavior is critical to modifying it. The "don't blame the mouse" saying is simplified; scientists (as in this article) live in a more complex world. Just because we can understand what led to a set of behavior for scientists, or others, doesn't mean they have no accountability for their actions, but it usually does mean there is a systemic problem that requires a systemic solution, otherwise we'll only ever be treating the symptoms.
Yep. Related is what SlateStarCodex called the "weak man" argument.

Basically, you make a strawman argument: rather than arguing whatever point your opponent was claiming, you make something up and argue against that instead.

But since you're arguing on the internet, you can always find some dipshit somewhere who actually supports the insane thing you made up. So you turn to your opponent and say "look at what your side believes!"

I'll immediately agree I am getting too cynical. I just wish we had something more than inspirational articles about the issue.

Didn't know about the prototypes. Good on the authors! I do wonder why not one has been seen to completion though, do you know?
First post thank you for looking.
Gosh, I particularly resonate with point #2 although all of them are good points. It seems people on twitter are all constantly angry about something, and it's a platform for the squeakiest wheels to find most success regardless of the quality of their content.

I never understand why so many people in the tech field are fond of it, it's nearly impossible to have any meaningful conversions or real connections.

How about running the packet filter in a dual-NIC VM on a VT-d capable PC? Dell T20 has Xeon E3 for $500 with 1TB disk and 4GB RAM. Add a PCI NIC for firewall purposes and still have the rest of the PC for use to run other VMs. GPU can be passed through to another VM.

Voting on HN isn't about agreeing or disagreeing. It's about whether a post is contributing to the debate or not.

Anyway, all of humanity isn't engaged in AI research and AIs are likely to be duplicable so I think your first point is beside the point. As for Insanity, yes that's quite possible. Developing high-functioning sentient AIs is likely to be a long term endeavour. But still, I think it is one that will ultimately be successful and this debate is about the consequences of that.

+1 for your engaging contribution. (see, that's how voting is supposed to work)
I know several people who could benefit of your idea. The implementation seems easy to the user.

Have you tested how much people in your circles needs it?
For learning programming concepts and everything I started out with java (OO language).

(I still love java I just don't feel like OO is the only languages to get things done)

Java(2.5 years experience) is fairly easy and it has great IDE support etc.
And the template thing in OO with a house has a floor and a roof and 4 walls etc. is fine.

But can't you do the same in C (which I have recently started to learn quite intensely)? I know you have to do a little more code but it isn't that much really and C gives you great control over anything really, you can also have it organized into files and such in C just as fine at you would have done in java.

- If I'm complete off please tell me
Yeah, but these people aren't doing GPGPU computation
The Public-Key verification was intended as an additional sanity check and I considered it not secure enough to just rely on it alone - so I added the PAKE step as well.

As lotharrr mentioned other flaws, you may want to check out his suggestion which seems like the way to go for me. This to eliminates this "sanity check" step all together.
Yeah, especially if you do something weird. People have often done weird strange stuff that made sense when I finally figured out the reason.

Time pressure (and particularly with contractors) can lead to some horrific long-term burdens of maintenance.
But it's not the brokerage's money on the line, it's DTCC's. From the perspective of the DTCC, there's no difference between a retail brokerage buying $10M of GME and lehman brothers buying $10M of GME.
A related question, how do GUIs actually resolve quickly on which element under the cursor a click lands?

How is the click propagated recursively through every component and is the position compared repeatedly at every step?
A bit off topic, but how does a university student distinguish themselves as a good developer? I have projects I think are interesting on my GitHub and I've worked three internships while in Uni, but how can I make sure I stand out during the job hunt (currently in my last semester) while I'm competing against some of my classmates that didn't know the equality operator could be used outside of an if statement (a real example)?
> all the breakthroughs in cryptography like Zero Knowledge proofs, […] that emerged from the evolution of cryptocurrency tech.

Zero knowledge proofs date back to the mid-eighties.

Wine tasters make strong claims, and love to point out what others are missing. Those claims are bunk.

If they simply said "That dress is marvelous! It looks great on you! I love the daring neckline!" we could all accept that as effusive enthusiasm.

But to pretend to have an entire lexicon, to write endless descriptive books about it, makes wine tasters an entire level of farce above anything else you care to name.
Initially it is pride. Once that wears out, it is another Job which you may or may not like.
Maybe you could use data-attribute to group these common styles like 'sizing' 'color' etc

something like <div data-css-size='large flex-box display-flex' data-css-color="red" data-css-font="gotham serif"></div>

then something like
[data-css-color*="red"] {color:red;}

I haven't tested this just thinking off the top what might work
Vonage is supported by people like my parents, who for years have used the landline via Vonage for at most 2 phone calls per month that could have been done via a multitude of apps, yet refuse to heed my advice to cancel it.
That's a great point, and is in fact something I wanted to touch upon in my previous comment. Being able to choose great subreddits is a big plus, and to be fair there are great YT creators who create great niche content. But a common theme has been that they usually start small in size (hence niche) but the moment they grow big, they start to "look" similar to the large channels/subreddits: for YT, they start getting bombarded with clickbait titles, sponsored videos (not just an ad/video). For reddit, "funny"/"flaming" comments hijack every discussion.
And when they had internet but before they had it on their phones, you could work around those media companies by saying things online. I believe parent was referring to that period.
Not for http-only cookies it doesn't.
I was once a massive Tailwind hater. I remember walking around Ipswich with a close friend who is also a developer proverbially slagging it off and all those that espoused it as the next best thing since sliced bread. Then I actually thought “well I’d better jump on this bandwagon before I’m unemployable”. I’ve never been able to build stuff so fast. I’m absolutely floored by the small learning curve and the speed at which I can put things together, especially with the help of TailwindUI too. There’s something huge to be said about the fact that I don’t need to context switch to CSS-land out of my markup to style up what I’m doing. I didn’t realise it, but that overhead of switching to a style sheet and going back to modify markup and then viewing the results in the browser really just used up my mental energy battery. Now, if I was in prison with Adam Wathan and Steve S, I’d 100% protect them in the showers if they dropped the soap.
That's the pitch but I'm also kind of tired of reading Java with Go syntax.
Why are you downvoted? How much motherland rhetoric did the soviets push? What about the CCP pushing for a "strong China" narrative. Venezuela was a very "venezuela first" ideology.

Yes, left wingers, socialists and communists are very nationalistic as well. That or are "the party" first... which just ends up being nationalism with an extra step.

On another note, the same publication (a redtop, so the language is rather "pithy") has this story[0], in which the "Fine People on All Sides" smeared feces around the place.

> My point here is the scope of things

My point is the scope of things too.

There was complete chaos across the country last year.

With many reminiscent if not worse scenes of complete disregard for public spaces and institutions.

The media was practically giddy about justifications of why we shouldn't be opposing the destruction of statues of the founding fathers. Freaking abolitionist statues were targeted.

There is unquestionably more total damage, building burned to the ground, etc from what happened last year.

I'm not saying what occurred at the Capitol is to be dismissed - quite the contrary. What I'm saying is that it's like one half of the country just woke up to the idea that mass political violence and bedlam should be denounced.
