> if you have to "work hard" to pass the FE your education has been gravely deficient.

Easier for Mechanical and Civil engineering students since more of the sections are a basic part of their curriculum.

As an electrical engineer, the EE sections were laughably easy while I had to study quite hard to get enough points in the dynamics, thermodynamics, and materials sections to pass. I did well, but I really had to work my ass off for sections that I never used again.

Whereas practically all of the other engineering disciplines simply blow off the EE section as you can pass without getting any points at all in it.

I suspect that's what most societies do. I don't think it will cut down on the killing sprees, though. Nor on general suffering.

There are likely to be better answers, but I have to admit that this problem is hard.
You can use selinux for that.

I agree the article is correct that he should sell even if he believes his thesis, because as an employee he doesn't really control FB's direction in any meaningful way and yet depends on it for his livelihood.

Also the P/E of Facebook is currently 98 vs the average of 15 and Apple's 13, so Dan's thesis (say 100x growth in stock price) would require 100x growth in revenue or a huge drop in costs. Neither seems likely given the historical fate of walled gardens like FB and the trouble both FB and Twitter have seen substantially profiting from their audience in a sustainable way. Facebook is looking pretty frothy to me at the moment and its long-term dominance far from assured, let alone its ability to grow revenue.

Stick with cast iron ( or even aluminium ) chef's skillets. Season them with oil or lard and build up that patina. No need for any teflon or manufacturing. Plus the heft and look is way cooler. If you want to cook on plastic, do it in a microwave. :)
I would suggest that this bit doesn't make sense:

"Imagine that tomorrow the Department of Justice files an antitrust lawsuit against Google. The company is forced to split off into a dozen shards. My entire department is eliminated to cut costs, and I'm without a job. My life savings, held in large part in Google stock, pretty much disappears. The tech sector is in a recession, so I can't find a new job that pays enough to cover rent. My nest egg, my safety blanket, is gone."

It makes it sound as though you are living from paycheck to paycheck aside from your stock grants. It's possible that you are, even, but I think most people working at a big tech company would not be.

Exactly! If I was given $5000 in cash and my impulse is not to immediately run out and buy Facebook shares with it, why then should I do anything else but sell $5000 worth of Facebook shares that I get given?
This is bullshit. If you actually put that disk image on a web server, and then download it, you'll get the unidentified developer warning and you can't run the script (there will be no button to open it).

Gatekeeper and code signing work hand-in-hand. You can run any unsigned code you want, as long as you didn't download it from the web. For example, gatekeeper won't prevent you from running usigned code you compiled yourself, or from running code you installed using a package manager.

OS X is smart enough to know that a shell script is equivalent to an application. You can't fool Gatekeeper quite that easily.

This is absolutely true. Apple devices take the picture when you press the button. When you press the capture button an an Android device, it sits around for a random delay between half a second and five seconds, maybe takes some time to focus, and finally captures the image. By which time the shot you set up is most likely over. And you can't learn the delay and anticipate the timing, because it's not even consistent - it's random.

If anyone knows of an Android device that even comes close to the responsiveness of an Apple device, I'd love to know about it.
Part of the problem is there most groups can be divided into those who share a common purpose and those who share common beliefs. Most social groups fall into the latter category, whereas most project groups fall into the former. (There are also, of course, groups that buck the trend. The Xiphos developers, for example, are simultaneously both types of group and there are lots of groups that arise from circumstance that fit neither; enough, in fact, that they may be best described as a third category)

With belief-based groups, it's somewhat reasonable to use one person's beliefs as a predictor of the group's beliefs; if the guy leading your kid's youth group starts spouting racist nonsense, then it may be time to find a new youth group. However, that's not true of project groups outside of the radical left¹, where people often put aside their differences in beliefs to further some other goal. Circumstantial groups are similarly heterogeneous: just because one Redditor is a staunch /r/MensRights follower doesn't mean that another can't find that subreddit abhorrent and instead follow /r/shitredditsays.

I think the reason that making the separation feels difficult for many people is that they find themselves in far more belief-driven groups than purpose-driven groups, and don't notice the circumstantial groups that they're part of.

¹ The American radical left focuses somewhat horrifyingly on ideological purity, to the point that many gay gun enthusiasts find more acceptance in gun clubs than gay rights groups.
When we look at figure-1(levelized PPA), we see steady price reductions until mid-2013 , and than none. That is probably due to soft costs starting to dominate.

So since the cost drivers changing - why does it make sense to model future price on old cost drivers ?
When I worked for a large internet company I would make about 2-3000 a year in stock options. Years later I could have probably bought a house had I not offloaded them immediately. Had the company done poorly, that money would be gone. I spent it on living expenses. Who's right and who's wrong? The one who ends up ahead of course. Can you tell the future?

The stock market is a gamble and you're not the house. You'll lose if you try to play. Sure you might make some money if you hold on, but only the house (the investment companies) are really guaranteed to win.

If I didn't need that money, I would have placed it into savings, invest in my own company or buy a house or something. Having had a stint as a gambler, I can say that gambling is for fools.

If bug fixes take weeks to get to the CE, as one post below quoted from Couchbase's website, how is it possible that you say that the CE is probably fine?

I'd rather say it's pretty useless. I wouldn't run anything where a bug fix (which could be a data corruption issue, a crash...) may take weeks to be fixed.

Unless I'm missing something, my opinion is: either use the commercial version or use a different product. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Serious Eats has a very comprehensive guide [1]. The short version is rub lightly with canola oil, put in hot oven for about 30 minutes. Take it out and oil again. Repeat 3-5 times.

The only thing you need to avoid while cooking is overly acidic foods. If you try to make a tomato sauce in it you will see the seasoning flake off. That's not good, but is very easily fixed by repeating the above steps.

To clean it, scour the plan with kosher salt and a paper towel. Once clean, coat lightly in canola oil.

Even more reason to sell that stock and pay back the student loans. While student loans will more than likely have a lower interest rate than the interest you earn on a successful company's stock, student loans are forever and can't be forgiven except in rare circumstances (in the US). Pay that off and don't be so stupid as to take student loans again!!

> biggest advantage Apple have camera wise is a really good, really fast image processing pipeline

And software to process it. Google announced Camera2 API only on IO2014 which would dramatically improve the postprocessing, but so far it hasn't been implemented much across vendors, who had their own technology already for years. They didn't even update their own Google Camera to include, which speaks enough about seriousness of Google caring about Android for consumers.
> That awkward phase of internalizing that '=' is an assignment operator and is different from another operator meant to test equality gets a lot shorter for a beginner.

I'll probably have to thank one of my highschool math teachers for inadvertently helping me skip this phase altogether then :)

He always pestered us to use the "equivalence" operators ⇔ or ≡ (the latter mostly for geometry stuff), and only use the regular equal when you had unambiguous contexts like "Let f(x) = x + 2" or "if x = 5". At the same time I was learning programming (with C++ as my first language...), and I could easily see "=" as being for assignment, since in other contexts you either used something more fancy (like ⇔ or ≡ in math, and "==" in code) or you used explaining words like "let" or "if" to clarify meaning. Though I think it took me a while to get things like `while (x = getch()) { ... }` :)

I think you are making a great point considering the risk of investing in a company that is also paying your salary. To take it a step further you can consider this salary to be an annuity and find the present value. If you look at your portfolio including the present value of your salary, it more than likely emphasize the lack of diversification in your portfolio.

Just as a side note, for your blog, the title shows the hexidecimal value of '. :)
Teflon pans are not a significant source of the perfluorooctanoic acid mentioned in the article.

See https://dx.doi.org/10.1111%2Fj.1539-6924.2008.01017.x for a bit more information, I quoted the relevant part here:

Besides the pathways presented above, the following pathways have also been modeled: oral exposure from hand-to-mouth contact with clothes and upholstery, from mouthing of clothes, carpet, and upholstery (only infants and toddlers), from migration into food prepared with PTFE-coated cookware, dermal exposure from wearing of treated clothes, from deposition of spray droplets on skin while impregnating, from skin contact with treated carpet and with upholstery, and from deposition of dust on skin.

Detailed analysis of these pathways showed that none of them causes significant exposure to PFOS or PFOA under the assumption of reasonable conditions during exposure, that is, the contribution of each pathway to the total uptake dose is less than 1% in any of the scenarios.
Great :)

"Look around the Android market, and it’s Apple that captures north of 90% of the device market’s profits. Samsung soaks up the little that’s left, and manufacturers like LG, with its well-received G3 and G4 family, tend to make around 1 cent per phone in net profit."[0]

I'm not happy with the diagrams. Example: the first one compares time to costs. That's really what we want. But why not add some lines for traditional ways to make electricity? That's what we want to compare to, or don't we?

I cannot cope with PDF.js, always making sure an external viewer is used.

It doesn't matter how beefy a machine is, the world freezes when a PDF is being open. Then there is the slow pagination, zooming and lots of boxes instead of characters.
Then why not sell your stock grants and buy some competitor shares? Similar risk, more diversification. Also this requires you to pay actual attention, instead of simply believing that "your company is the best company".
Take the number of vehicles in the field, (A), and multiply it by the probable rate of failure, (B), then multiply the result by the average out-of- court settlement, (C). A times B times C equals X...If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one.

What applies to the Car Industry (via Dialogue from Fight Club) applies to the Chemical Industry in Spades. DuPont Knew (or strongly suspected) that C8 & (Teflon) were causing Cancers, Birth Defects etc. But the cost was going to be too high to move away so they all "kicked the can down the road".

CSS Hacks: Not your daddy's link highlighting
Studies have shown that overweight people don't necessarily eat more calories or have less active lifestyles than their normal weight peers [1][2][3][4].

A major factor that contributes to excess weight is the absorption rate of dietary lipids in the gut, which can be influenced by anatomy, gut microbiota, genetics, and other characteristics [5][6][7][8][9]. The rate at which the body absorbs fat from food during digestion plays a key role.

I don't think that tiling a plane is exactly a "simple" problem.
The Wikipedia page for Dairy Queen mentions the MooLatte drink. Previous versions of the page mentioned the controversy about the name. The current version of the page doesn't. Since there are plenty of online sources talking about the name it seems to meet notability requirements, so the fact that the information has been edited out might be evidence of a problem.
If you're seeking approval from other people to determine if you're "good enough," you're heading down the wrong path.

I guess it's not mentioned because it's irrelevant? The people on HN seem to care a lot about lawsuits and companies copying eachothers features, but most people buying smartphones couldn't care less. People don't care who invented something first or who sues who, people just pick whatever seems to be the best product that they can afford.

I don't think that HTC failed because of a lawsuit; Samsung was pretty successful despite all the lawsuits, and Apple is similarly killing it despite constantly being sued from all kinds of companies.
Now Teflon has not C8 on it as it is manufactured.

You will create dangerous compounds though if your pan goes over high temperature. This could happen if for example there is no oil in the pan. I have seen housewives and cookers heat the Teflon pan without oil for evaporating the water. Big no no with Teflon.

I have seen metal scrappers burning teflon pans to use the pan for something else and painting it!(with teflon you can't paint it)

The big problems with exotic chemicals is that people could do extremely stupid stuff without them realizing they had done anything wrong.

As Ramit Sethi likes to argue, the greatest risk in financial management is ending up in analysis paralysis and failing to utilize your energy where you have much more leverage-- improving your own skills and impact. You risk over-allocating yourself not to an investment or sector but to financial greed itself.

Tho, in favor of the OP: GOOG 2012-present has doubled, but well-diversified leveraged funds have had better returns (TQQQ and SVXY are up ~6x).

IIRC all the efficient solar cells we currently have contains some rare materials. Once a particular solar technology reaches grid parity, the demand for the relevant rare material will increase, placing a floor under the price of that solar cell.

In the case of Moore's Law, a transistor can be any size. By contrast, solar cells absorbs too little energy if they are too thin.

TL;DR: There are real physical limitations to solar cells.

I don't agree with your math teacher. ⇔ is not equivalence, it's a symbol for 'if and only if'. The left hand side implies the right hand side, and vice versa.

Writing a * a - b * b ⇔ (a + b)(a - b) doesn't make any sense, because neither the left hand side nor the right hand side are logic statements.
The distinction between client and server is already evaporating, with things like server-side dom bringing client functionality to the server and service workers bringing server functionality to the client. I expect the next generation of distributed databases will include the client into its storage layout. However, that will only make it more apparent that the fundamental problem of synchronizing state between multiple machines is an unsolvable one, thanks to the CAP theorem. By unsolvable I mean that the intuitive expectation of the user is an always available system that is completely consistent, and we know we can't give them that. I feel like we're heading into the data processing equivalent of the AI winter, where the wet towel of reality will dampen much of the hyperbole around p2p and IoT.

Looks interesting. I'm curious about why there's a 32bit cookie added to the volume,filename -- it seems like a rather weak protection -- and as such, it becomes an unnecessary complication? As have been shown with facebook, relying on (permanent) secret urls to grant/deny access is a bad idea.

So, why not just use volume,id, and then deploy a proxy that handless access based on tokens in front -- if access control is wanted? (Not all uses of files will need/want access control).

I suppose one reason for a "cookie" would be cache invalidation in case of volume,id reuse.
Fair enough. I think the most satisfying answer would be the released chemicals and other environmental effects normalized to kWh for various cell types, taking the designed lifetime and recycling into account maybe with some emphasis on cell types that are currently sold for households, or planned to be sold in the not too far future.

I'm interested in these questions:

- What cell types are currently bought, will be bought in large quantities?

- How it affects / will affect the environment?
