What's the most difficult CEO skill? Managing your own psychology (2011)
As a middle/high schooler during summer breaks, I LIVED for this show. Pre-Internet. Pre-most things. I would watch this religiously. It was so cool to hear what new products and technologies were coming out; what was going on at comdex; and on and on. It was all so inspiring!
We did the Gilded Rose kata at one of our local Python user group meetings.

What I remember most about it, other than the complicated logic, was using 'coverage' in branch mode to find two places where the manually developed and pretty comprehensive unit test suite was incomplete.
Also, people who are that close to the pipe are probably the ones most likely to know how to circumvent their rules, so a bit of extra monitoring on their day-to-day surely won't hurt.
This is what's bizarre about self-professed high-morals people. They say gays should be treated equally, blacks too, and even people with all kinds of diseases. There's even a human right called "freedom of movement". But somehow all concept of morals and treating people fairly goes out the window when it comes to the wrong kind of outsiders - foreigners.

Imagine if civil rights activists had said "equal treatment of blacks and whites is important! But let's not do it too quickly because the flood of blacks into the former white-only areas will create too much disruption. It might wreck our polite society. Let's gradually give blacks more and more freedoms as long as the civilized people can retain their comfortable positions."

Do screen readers do any special handling of parentheticals? For a note that short, I wouldn't have been surprised if it were inserted inline in parentheses.
Maybe I don't understand the difficulty. This is a standard services problem that standard software architecture practices would solve. You just need a gateway sitting in front of the CAN bus and any externally exposed services must go through the gateway. Only "safe" services or commands are exposed in this case. Maybe an entire service here, maybe a specific info command to an essential driving service there. The gateway inspects all incoming requests from these external services. All internal commands continue talking through the bus directly. Problem solved.
Great project! Would be nice to have something like an "export as code" feature.

I agree that user data is driving the "free" service of social media. But I don't see your point when you say an open social media implementation failed because it was open. You imply that Facebook succeeded since it was a closed protocol implementation.

Why did Facebook succeed? Would have it succeeded if it was open? Perhaps market needs and competition scene has more to do with success than the nature of protocol. What percentage of users even care about protocols?
The easy fix for that is to send the data asynchronously in a separate request. It takes a little longer for the page to go "live", but the static part is functional quicker.

A harder fix is to walk the static DOM to inflate your store. It shouldn't be too hard since you can add hints to the DOM to guide your parser.
I am a volt owner and have the app mentioned in the article...

It appears that the hacker can gain access to whatever the phone app is capable of... which is not THAT much really. You can absolutely start and stop the car but you need the key fob to actually drive the car and I don't believe you can stop it when it is actually being driven.

There is no speed or braking controls in the app. You can unlock/lock, start/stop and trigger the alarm.

In addition the the device must be near the car and the user must be using the app.

I am glad they are patching this, but it's really not on par with prior vulnerabilities as far as I can tell.

Taming complexity with reversibility
I disagree, though I'm not particularly pleased about it.

I think 25 years ago, it seemed that choice existed. You could do liberal, capitalist democracy following the examples of Western Europe, Japan & the US. The other hand was a hodgepodge of failure, either state failure or economic failure. Most notably was the failed soviet bloc but also China, India & South America (right and left). All or nothing. Revolution or stagnation. Free your people or live in culturaly stagnant, poverty stricken destitute with .

The idea that political freedoms necessary for democracy are intertwined with the economic freedoms necessary for capitalism had a lot of traction. But, with the examples of the last generation (positive and negative) I think that is no longer conventional wisdom. China's been very successful at growing economically by hand selecting policies and freedoms they want and keeping other out. You could call it non-fundamentalist or you could call it unprincipled depending on your biases and judgements, but it's hard to ignore it.

China has been selectively liberalizing economically, socially and (to a lesser extent) politically. It doesn't see how you could argue that a sudden democratization in 1980 or 1990 would have gotten them further along.

The reality is that the choices are nowhere near black and white. There is such a thing as a soft authoritarian, single party, free market state. They are doing it.

Its nice to think that liberal democracy and prosperity are intertwined because I like democracy. But, I think democracy must be justified on its own merits. The conic advantages…. They're debatable.

33 Construction Fails
This breaks down in to 2 situations:

- They are coming in late and leaving early and completing all their assigned tasks. There is no problem.

- They are coming in late and leaving early and not completing their tasks. This requires at the very least a discussion about meeting the goals set for this employee and what it means to complete them. If you have a formal discussion with the employee about their goals and how they are not meeting them and they do not improve then you have a case to remove them.

I suppose there are some smaller inconveniences that go along with someone not being around but they can be pretty easily resolved.

- They should be easily reachable at the very least from 9-5 regardless of the time they actually spend at the office. No one should be stuck waiting on them for an answer to something.

- Other employees may doing an unfair share of tasks that crop up during the day. If an unexpected task comes down from on high or from a client or whatever you usually task someone handy with with it. If this employee is never around they will likely never be tasked with something like this. Just remember to keep them in mind for things like this and shoot them an email/text to inform them.

Yes, a gateway is a common solution. Or having two busses (one for engine control and the second for aux functions like HVAC, radio, lighting etc) with a system to pass critical messages between the two.

But it's cheaper to use a single bus and just slap everything on there. Or in the case of something like OnStar, realize you can add extra capabilities through firmware and not fully think about the impact when your radio can send unfiltered messages to your ECM.

Yeah, and unfortunately haptic feedback is even farther away in terms of emersion than VR.

I imagine we might possibly come close by using a some sort of full body contraption that would somehow stimulate all your nerves. But it would need to be sophisticated enough to emulate muscle movement.

But then that's fundamentally incompatible with motion controls. So you'd have to then create something that's able to detect and interpret nerve signals from the brain to such a degree it wouldn't contradict the VR Headset and Haptic Pod version of the world. Otherwise immersion would tank.

The CAN-bus allows control of the car, so non-control devices should not be allowed to send control messages on the CAN-bus.

Unfortunately CAN is not as complex as an IP packet. It's essentially a one-wire serial bus with collision detection. Even RS-232 lets you clip the TX line so that a device could listen but not send. You would need to clip the TX before the CAN transceiver, and that's something nobody typically does.
Here Is LibreOffice 5.0 with More Stability and Better Performance
They're still around - WhatsApp has had multiple unofficial clients pop up, for example, though the company is much more heavy-handed in taking them down (DMCA takedowns against libraries that use the API, banning users of unofficial apps, etc).
It's worth noting that, although Clojure is undoubtedly dynamically typed, it does more extensive compile-time checking than, e.g., Python or PHP. For example

;; clojure
(let [colour :red] (f color))

will throw a compile-time error, whereas

# python
colour = "red"
f(color)

will only show up at runtime. That makes a big practical difference.

Sounds like you're not pushing things as much as you used to in '08. The situation is no different today than it was in 1996 when I started this ride. There are sections of my current codebase that switch for iOS 4, 6, 7, 8+, android and desktop Chrome, working around idiosyncracies of each.

There's also IE, Firefox and "am I running from the local filesystem" checks in there. All necessary to work around real differences in implementation in the most current crop of "modern" browsers.

It's a rare feature that I can ship that works out of the box in every browser. But, as it was 20 years ago, this is the job we signed up for. I just wish people stopped going out of their way to add more unnecessary things that I need to special case around.
Looks like it gives almost the same results as DuckDuckGo -- which is to be expected given DDG also uses Bing and Yandex. I like it a lot less, though, with the animations and ad on the side of the screen.
A large part of my motivation to start my own company is to define my own culture. How is one to progress without asking 'why'? How is asking 'why' once a year (and in abstract, politically-correct terms) supposed to help us? Why not do it better, faster?

And for the commenter above, how is asking 'why' not professional? Clearly there are professional ways of going about it.

I wonder why so many people think like that. Especially when it's understood that when bad things happen in business, it's 'just business as usual' (e.g., getting fired is often said to be 'just business as usual'...nothing personal). Then why can't we be more transparent about feedback in the workplace?

For the record, I think what you're calling a 'tick' is a virtue.

"Fascinating" indeed... I've no problem with the general practice of selling lost or mis-directed packages that are reasonably never going to be claimed, but if the facts are as the columnist writes - with one box of 88 books x $28.95 being sold under the $25 threshold, the USPS should be worrying less about the PR damage and more about keeping its (dwindling) customers happy.
"every single Chinese parent would rather their kid go the oxbridge route than any chinese school" - citation needed!

The oxbridge (as in "the bridge of the ox", a very logical outcome from "the ford of the ox" and "the bridge of the cam") are more of commercial enterprises than teaching institutions, and the preference for them are first and foremost the result of commercial advertising. The business model in here is to attract a great mass of pupils, be very selective about it (in order to have high-profile prospects), be very expensive (because the networking happening there must worth the hassle), then selling the achievements of these high-potenial strictly-preselected material to others as the results of its own merit. The research, the eccentric curriculum, or any other quirk that sets these institutions apart from others are just secondary. That is the naked truth.

I cannot force you to like something but I will say this in the hope that you re-evaluate your judgement: if you still think Racket is a much better experience than Haskell and its ecosystem, you likely haven't experienced Haskell in-full. I know both languages and I've used both in production software (including many other functional languages) and I can say without any doubt in my mind that I will never select Racket over Haskell for writing software, if presented the choice.

Are there glaring warts in the language? The ecosystem? The tooling? Sure, nothing is perfect and one can easily point out many more warts in other technologies that are far more popular.
So, way back like few years ago, when Reed Hastings was asked who his competition is, he replied HBO. True to that Netflix got into the business of new shows. So the executives of HBO will never tag along with Netflix, that is why HBO shows are on Amazon Instant Video, not on Netflix. Even though for the end-user there is a level difference in service provided by HBO and Netflix, both these companies view each other as rivals.

Well, not sure it was a complaint, I was just lightheartedly commenting that it was a bit redundant, but ok, umbrage seems a reasonable response.

> I believe core.typed has no effect -- neither positive nor negative -- on performance

Interesting, assumed otherwise. Groovy, another dynamic language with optional static typing, does benefit performance-wise when electing to use the `@CompileStatic` annotation on applicable code blocks.

A Clojure.Typed with performance improvements would certainly benefit projects like Storm. Probably a ton of work involved though, otherwise it would have been done already.

I'm most excited for VR headsets to replace my desktop monitors. Infinitely sized displays in 360 degrees around me...I think that's where the real future is for these things. And doing that won't require nearly the hardware power that a 3D game does. The main thing holding it back is that the displays in the Oculus are still a little too low-resolution to make text 100% crisp and clear. I fully expect that a couple of years from now, though, I'll be ditching my monitors for a VR headset.

I actually was in the Senate gallery yesterday and watched Diane Feinstein and a male senator co-author discuss to a largely empty chamber. In came former presidential candidate McCain whose 'questions' were more in the nature of 'how can any senator -not- vote to protect American's information-. It was certainly not a debate. To the male senator's credit he seemed mostly pushing for debate and amendment on the floor.

At the risk of sounding like a JavaScript interviewer, define "this". The article was posted today, so I doubt that's what you're referring to.

EDIT: My guess would be that it was originally too focused in its use case as an ActionScript replacement for Flash. In current times, I would say that it has made the same mistake that everything other than TypeScript has: It tries to "fix" JavaScript / ECMAScript. That means learning yet another slightly-different thing, and also porting if it's not a new project. TypeScript has picked up a lot of momentum by taking the superset approach, allowing progressive enhancement of existing codebases. Just start throwing your JavaScript into the TypeScript compiler and you're done.
That's a bandage on a broken limb approach. The problem is that we have naive routing protocols that trust every packet received. The various BGP fiascoes have shown that we need to rewrite the routing protocols with the assumption of distrust. Until that happens DDoS will always be the pain in the butt that's always been.
