It would honestly be cheaper to buy an Apple TV in most cases and just use AirPlay to stream the video. Plus - the added functionality of Apple TV.

With the latest version of OS X / Safari, most video sources can be streamed directly over AirPlay via the app their running in while not tying up the entire laptop.
Unfortunately, SML has no industrial users. At least, that I've heard of. It's a language that's used mostly in teaching and academic research. First ML I used was SML/NJ in my intro CS class, and haven't seen it since. Whereas OCaml has a many industrial users and is widely deployed. My favorite example is of course management layer for the Xen hypervisor[0][1], but there are more as well[2].

Adam Chlipala has a writeup[3] on comparing SML and OCaml that may be of interest to the discussion.

How autonomous is he? I suspect he's just doing Bezos' dirty work here. I mean, right after this Bezos bizarrely pulled Chromecast from Amazon because his firesticks aren't selling, but claimed it was because of "consumer confusion." He also refuses to allow the Prime Video app to use Chromecast in any way. That's on top of getting a beating for his Fire Phone, which was laughed straight into the bargain bin.

Amazon is run by a something of a meglomaniac and everyone knows it. Carney is just collecting a paycheck, imo, and knows this response is a bad idea. I think its obvious Amazon wants to be a tech giant like MS or Google but simply can't pull it off. This NYTimes piece just made hiring a lot harder for them, right or wrong. Bezos must be livid, especially since everyone has cloud services now, many of which make AWS look poor in comparison. What's Amazon's big claim to fame today? Being an online retailer and e-book seller? That's not tech powerhousing, that's just sales.
Using the OpenSSH Certificate format, many of the common features from X.509, like intermediates, cross signing, key usage attributes or restricting access based on an attribute in the certificate are not part of the spec:

https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/blob/master/PROT...

When I first learned about OpenSSH Certskeys, I was really excited; Spent awhile trying to make it useful, but you end up building all the CA infrastructure, and this time instead of distributing certificates to servers once a year, you want to distribute certificates to your _users_ every month or two -- so the pain is higher, there is less automation, and everyone on your team feels it....

Exploring OpenSSH certs is what led me to founding ScaleFT. There had to be a better way.

ScaleFT Access leverages these SSH Certificates, but we expire them every 5 minutes to provide other features that are hard with the limited capabilities of the format:

https://www.scaleft.com/products/access/

There are patches to make OpenSSH use X.509, but they are not widely adopted... and asking people to patch a sshd is a non-starter for many environments.
Agreed on all points - I don't intend to vape long term, I've stepped down from 9mg to 6mg to 3mg nicotine oils over the last three months - and plan to drop the nicotine altogether in a few months, and then quit vaping sometime after.

I'm effectively using it to decouple the physiological and psychological addictions so I can treat them independently of one another.

Hell, it can't be worse than smoking - or for that matter taking a tube ride, or being in an underground car park... Or being in a place with fog machines - propylene glycol too.

Also don't get burnt cotton with this sucker unless you run it totally dry - wick is always wet, and I run with a low wattage.

Tried quitting previously with a little kanga and while it filled the nicotine cravings, I still lusted for the feel of thick smoke - ended up failing. Not even missing cigarettes this time.

Not even really having to think about quitting either, it's just happening.

> What is the tragedy of the commons whereby everyone uses the information contained in a map?

The problem would be nobody paying for it so you stop making / updating maps. Think open source software that everyone uses, but nobody supports so it stops being maintained. Sure, a map is great, less so if it's 120 years out of date.

Now you could use taxes to pay for it, but then people who don't use the maps are taxed for something they don't use.

PS: As to why the governments making it in the first place. The military for one wants high quality maps even if the public wants different types of maps there is still a lot of overlap.
I wish it didn't show Philadelphia as Trenton/Camden. That is so incorrect.
Some common pathological beliefs I've seen, some logical fallacies, some worse:

The rationalization drive implies failure needs an excuse. Sometimes Agile is the least strongly defended possible victim. Therefore Agile is bad.

Agile is complicated. The simplest components to explain are also the most trivial. Something that's only trivial is invariably foolish. Therefore Agile is bad.

"Most people" are experimenting with Agile. Half of managers / devs are below median by definition. Its a very realistic prediction that half the time, Agile will result in below median performance. Therefore Agile is bad.

Every other silver bullet for the past 50+ years has been a scam. Agile is a silver bullet. No one can explain why this silver bullet is any more likely to be real than the last couple dozen fads. Therefore Agile is bad.

Agile only seems to scale to a narrow range of team size. Things that don't scale up, or down, are stereotypically seen as bad by programmers, no matter if the stereotype is applicable or not to the situation under discussion (that's why its called a stereotype or bias). Therefore Agile is bad.

Sometimes Agile is implemented as a sub-scheme where the overarching style remains micromanagement or seagull management or simple chaos. If the cake is a lie, a thin layer of Agile flavored frosting isn't going to make the overall dish taste good. Coverups are inherently bad. Therefore Agile is bad.

Agile is impossible to define and really popular. Grok that. At least some of the bottom half of the median will simply use the word as a checkbox without ever implementing it. Essentially managers who "have no idea whats going on" will sometimes describe themselves as Agile as false advertising. Therefore Agile is bad.

Related to most of the above, the odds of finding a shop actually successfully implementing true Agile are low. Therefore statistically if an employer says they're agile that's a sign for applicants to avoid them. And that means the best people will successfully avoid agile, with all kinds of secondary effects. Therefore Agile is bad.

I've usually worked with people who encourage and support resourcefulness. Especially on smaller teams when developers have a wide range of responsibilities, you're frequently working in areas you have little experience in. Everyone on the team team understands that the ability to cope with unusal problems should be rewarded.
How are you relating complacency and lack of ability to resourcefulness? I think resourcefulness is more of a mindset (or a soft skill), I don't think it is related to lack of technical abilities.
Thanks for the feedback. We use captions for our prototype in order to extract all the data which is just one way to do it. They are many ways to extract content from videos and we're working on some interesting ones!

About youpronounce.it (watch out for trademark complaints), they focus on a single use case? pronunciation? Which is fine.

We just built a quick prototype for validation. We're working on scan.video to make video content more accessible for people on the Internet. What you see today is %0.1 of what we'd like to build. So, stay tuned! definitely..

Although I do think it is heavily colored by survivor/leader bias in the same way that Bezos "I don't recognize" response was. And that there are "good groups" within the company and that senior developers and their teams are more likely to be treated well than those who are essentially purchasing agents and vendor managers on the pure retail logistics/ops side of the company, where skills are not compensated as highly or as difficult to find in the employment market.

Yes, there are now several options to manually attain the certificate.

There is a "manual" mode, "Here is the file that you need to post, press Enter when you are ready to continue"

There is a "standalone" option. If you don't have a webserver running, it will bind to port 443 and solve the challenge for you.

There is also a "Webroot" option. Enter in your server's webroot and it will automatically post a file to .well-known and delete the file after validation.

This is what I had in mind when I described career flexibility. The experience for a middle aged person (say, late 30s or older) returning to the workforce full time after scaling back or leaving the workforce for 5+ years to take care of small children (and who still has those obligations for older children) will be very different form relatively young person who has gone back and forth between work and travel. I think the nature of the disruption to career progress is very different.
Well one of the murders he "plotted", was documented in a chat log by...Carl Force. Which is sort of suboptimal if you are hanging an attempted murder charge based strictly on anonymous torchat logs and the testimony of a convicted dirty federal agent.

In the 21-page IM chat log, which occurred over the anonymous IM service Torchat, the Silk Road’s Dread Pirate Roberts carries out conversations with his staffer Inigo, a supposed drug-dealing associate named Nob (who we now know was actually undercover DEA agent Carl Force), and a figure named Cimon, also known as Variety Jones, whom Ulbricht had described in his journal as his “mentor” and advisor.

It depends on how you slice it. If your expertise in this system is less than your others, it could cause real problems down the line. If a mistake was made in the setup, maintenance or recovery of the system because it's different, it would be just as easy to say it was negligent to use it instead of something that was well understood by your team. Trade-offs like this are made all the time, to claim negligence is to ignore the complexities of the situation.
Does anyone have screenshots of the database upgrade that the Heroku CLI is pushing? It gave me some technical-sounding warnings about needing to update my database, sounding a lot like the infrequent app stack updates (from Bamboo to Cedar or whatever). It walked me through an upgrade process, bounced app, everything happy.

Then the bill came, and they'd added a $50/mo db to my $9/db. Support was shocked, shocked that their tool had told me to install the db. They admitted the $9 plan sufficed for me, didn't fix or refund the unwanted extra plan, and to top it off database backups are still broken.

I'd just like to have a screenshot of the misleading sales process they pulled. If anyone sees this, please drop me a line. Meanwhile, I'm checking out Dokku and other alternatives for hosting on VPSs - aside from my little hobby project, I have tens of thousands of dollars of consulting client hosting to start migrating away.

The article mentions load performance. Meaning the time it takes to download and setup the Framework. GWT compiles Java to JavaScript and leaves out code that will never run. JavaScript frameworks load functionality in case that functionality is required, even if you don't use it.
No, I am not talking about talent at all! I am talking about the crap that is produced for consumers, that is intentionally making them less productive.

Does my mother, for instance, deserve a text processor (MS Word) that cannot read save from one version to the next properly? Or doesn't she deserve a well researched UI (which actually was in the original MS Word!), instead of some modernist crap? Just because she is not a professional writer? These are all things that little by little improve productivity.

Or take computers, how today you cannot even install an operating system on your device. People should have right to tinker. To prevent it is making people less able to do stuff, and the whole economy suffers as a consequence. You really think that Eastern Europeans, who during communism often had to resort to "doing to yourself", are more talented than Westerners?

The point is great (or the best) technology doesn't require talent to improve productivity. Productivity improvements often stem from things that "just work".

I should put a caveat on that assertion I made. If it were extremely cheap to make an iPhone then Apple probably would sell the whole thing as a service instead. Why bother buying an iPhone ever again when you can update for the small yearly subscription of 100/USD or whatever they felt would work for their business model in that situation.

Sure, if you only care about quarterly costs, this is far more expensive. Luckily it seems they are not so short-sighted.

Of course it's going to be costly to switch. That's a key part of proprietary software strategy. But in the long run, the lower costs will far outweigh that initial cost. And furthermore, if many governments switch to and fund free software, it should be easy for free software to surpass proprietary software, and do so at a lower cost.

Government switching to free software has implications that go far beyond cost-savings. There are features money can't buy: proprietary software is so frequently backdoored that it's safe to assume it's all backdoored, and that security risk is huge for governments. And putting government documents in a non-proprietary file format allows accessibility, which is a key responsibility of governments serving their citizens.

The commenter above implicitly rejected intermediaries. To me it is clear that my browser is a trusted intermediary, and part of my trust in them extends to letting them decide whether to trust IdenTrust. And part of my browser's trust in IdenTrust extends to letting them decide whether to trust Let's Encrypt.

In the yak-herding analogy, Let's Encrypt is a new charity in Ecuador that provides market services for scarf knitters. IdenTrust is a large regional trader in South America. My browser is the local yak-scarf store down the street. It seems totally obvious to me that, in this case, of course I'd hear about IdenScarf making deals with Let's Shave Yaks on the news. But the parent commenter is unhappy about the local yak store not being directly involved, and thinks it's some form of failure of the global yak-scarf supply chain that an individual consumer isn't part of that conversation.
Above is probably a meta-trap comment. I'd wager the whole discussion exists only to create an impression that this is a crowded space and dissuade potential competitors from entering the market.

Mumford's first work that I know of after his mathematical peak was on machine vision, in the 1980s. I know this because I went back to the math department to visit and saw him running around with a video camera. I got the impression he was interested in how the actual brain works even back then.
