You'd have to define "pretty much." It's probably less than you think in terms of total landmass. There are countries and areas within countries that are restricted in various ways. There are also rugged remote areas that aren't suitable for helicopters and islands lacking airstrips.

Coverage is pretty awesome feedback for reminding you that "oh yeah, I should probably test that case too." And if you start out with this kind of feedback early it can help influence your design to increase its testability.

If X% coverage is a goal measured by non-technical team members, it likely loses much of its value.

Pepsi is to Coke as Google + is to Facebook. They both have overlapping networks of drinkers/users that are not mutually exclusive. Facebook was able to get to market first and provide a tastier product. But the free market supports both products/networks. And there is more room for disruption in the Facebook/Google Plus space than the soft drinks market due to much shorter product lifecycles. Myspace lasted 5 years. Facebook will last longer due to strong tie-ins w/ businesses, schools, organizations, etc. but I, like many of my friends, have dropped it and are keeping an eye out for the next thing.

The issue w/ Uber and Lyft is one of employment laws rather than regulated trust networks. If we changed the laws/prosecuted the companies they would have to raise prices due to higher employee wages/compensation which would have the ultimate effect of weakening the network as people looked at taxis and public transport as viable alternatives.

So ultimately my point is that we should look at how attractive the service and why. In the case of Uber its because they are able to exploit an oversupply of low skill labor to bring prices down. This combined w/ advertising and promotions has created a strong network. Not sure it's the govs job to step in and weaken/nationalize that network. Perhaps regulate the employee/employer relationship, but this is nothing new.

Infrequently enough that it's usually premature optimization to spend too much time worrying about it. But in Go's core application space, high-load network applications, frequently enough that it's something you should be aware of, and there's a realistic chance of optimizing everything else to the point that GC time becomes your biggest problem, even after the latest work on it.

You'd still want to reach for mmm only after A: verifying that GC time really is your biggest problem via profiling and B: taking more normal steps to minimize overallocation first, because with value types Go has some tools (if not necessarily "a lot" of such tools, but definitely some) for dealing with that. But if you end up backed against the wall, this may be helpful.

You could also arguably add a C: did you really mean to use a language with manual memory in the first place, or perhaps Rust? Or can you factor just the relevant bit out into such a language and interact via some RPC mechanism back to the Go code base? But as the situation becomes arbitrarily complicated there simply ceases to be a silver bullet.
Good luck, and feel free to email/tweet me to discuss further. My big tip: don't ever yield to the temptation to check "just once". I've made that mistake and it's very hard to come back from.

It looks like there are multiple referenced sources of bilingualism contributing to "cognitive reserve". Pretty cool if there are direct tangible health benefits to learning!

But twice as likely is a very big number in this context. It sounds like the population sample was all from Hyderabad, not a global sample. Is it possible environmental factors are present? Or perhaps socioeconomic factors -- I'd speculate that bilingual people are probably on average wealthier, leading to a wide range of possible benefits, including healthier diet, and better living conditions and location. I know it's armchair critique, but I just can't help but be a little skeptical of this headline.
Not the author but a recent book I've read on the subject served as a gentle introduction for me: The Little Prover [0]. If you can get past the lisp syntax you can get through this book with an informal and incomplete education in set theory and an intuitive understanding of logic.

Literally every local small business I know reports some type of shenanigans with Yelp. Some of it is surely false-correlation by emotional shop owners.

But there is, at best, a critical mass of unethical salespeople, because I've heard far too many reports of pressured selling.

Either way, they've got a really big problem. Big picture, it's hard to imagine how a site like this can remain neutral or useful long-term. It's just a playground for mischief on all sides, and eventually consumers will catch on.
It would be interesting to see the EU standardize on a single charging infrastructure and roll it out EU wide in large enough numbers to make having a full electric vehicle a decent reality. With the large wide-open spaces between population centers of the US it's a harder sell.

As for the district heating idea, why not use solar (thermal or electric) energy to provide large portions of the heat?
When Harper was in power, sure. Lately, the coverage has been a bit, shall we say, fawning?

Now if only it all wasn't spent on the current massive expansion of the Marketing team and their new executive's salaries. The new CMO has a very checkered history with questionable results. Very much the nepotist who manages to pack his team with former colleagues.

Actually, EU-wide measures of inequality (e.g., Gini coefficient) are lower than those for the US; the EU briefly reached US-like levels when some of the Eastern European countries first joined, but had fallen back to levels much lower than the US.
I agree it is a major accomplishment. I have doubts about its impact, because I am unsure whether it will be built upon.

CH2O's main innovation is C standard (as opposed to C implementation) formalized in general purpose prover (as opposed to custom system). KCC formalized C standard, but not in general purpose prover. CompCert formalized in general purpose prover, but formalized implementation instead of standard.

Formalizing in general purpose prover is useful because you can use all of math to prove runtime invariants. But if you want to prove runtime invariants, you usually want to prove with respect to concrete implementation, not to prove abstractly to standard. For time when you want to prove abstractly to standard, this doesn't seem better than KCC.

In short, this feels like Not Invented Here against KCC. Probably unfair characterization, but that's what it feels to me.
I used to be a worker, now I'm a CEO. Cheers to tomp for a well reasoned article; Jeers to the manager who whines about employee effort.

Nobody will work as hard or as long as a founding CEO. Known rule of the game.

Want more work from employees? Compensate. Bigger commissions for sales and time-and-half-again for hourly.

Salary is dumb. Begging employees for more hours. And some only want 30 so they can work their side-gig. I wish they'd spend that time with me - this is where nurture and compensation come into play (again).

Perhaps nurture and comp are other known rules of the game (that any "CEO" should know). :p
Making money on female entrepreneurs
Go to university & get a degree. A degree opens a lot of doors in the future, even if you think it shouldn't matter. That's both simple things like "Getting your CV past a clueless first-screen HR person", and complex things like "Applying for a visa to live/work abroad".

Also, if you're working as a developer already then the first year of university is likely to be straightforward for you. Depending on the hours, you could probably keep the part-time job and study (but out of the two, you should prioritise the study).

Finally, I'd recommend you use your free time in university well. Volunteer for charitable organisations; help out with your student union; take up a sport; keep learning things not on the curriculum. All of these are fulfilling in and of themselves, but will also benefit your future too.

> consumer battery tech

Depends which consumers you're talking about. There are huge, untapped markets in Africa and Asia where people have no refrigeration or washing machines (partly due to having an insufficient electrical grid, or a complete lack of one), and they would benefit immensely from being able to store cheaply generated solar power.

A large enough battery system based on this tech might be out of reach for a single individual in those circumstances, but not for a group who pooled their money and shared it.

General problem of Java: It lacks decent onboarding.

I disliked java after school and was convinced I was hopeless so I didn't even bother to apply for Java jobs. Then I was recruited into a Java position and picked up the necessary skills to work during my first 4 days and improved steadily from there, but it only worked for me because I was on a good team.

Now it is me who helps people using Java more efficiently : )

The CIA’s WWII Guide to Creating Organizational Dysfunction
Fun Yelp story time:

Dated a girl. Her father was an eye doctor in a small town. There were 2 eye doctors on main street. He was convinced the other doctor had someone leave a bad review (which out of his ~8 or so reviews) which made him a 2 star "offering".

He was my eye doctor and I _did_ like his work, so we made an account, and left a review. My review was "untrusted" because my account didn't have any other activity.

Now it became a game. Everywhere we went we'd leave a yelp review to try and get my account to be "trusted". This went on for about 3 months and we had about 10-15 reviews. My account was still untrusted. We decided to stop and just let it be. About 3 months after that, my user was trusted and he now has a 5 star rating.

The woes of yelp in a small town.

It's a great question. I think a lot of the problem is reviews get stale AND you don't know/trust the reviewer.

I disagree completely. And I really don't trust someone to write zfs replication scripts on their own that can properly handle differentials automatically or the new resumable-send feature which this guy's tool doesn't even mention because he probably doesn't even know it exists.

Listen, this is hard and it sucks that there isn't a tool that comes with zfs to do this for you. But there are scripts that have been in production for years that have never failed. Scripts that are currently pushing hundreds of GBs per hour across the internet and recovering gracefully from failures. Use them. They work. They're even authored by zfs experts.

You are due compensation if you are damaged as a result of the breach.

Your data being accessible as part of a breach does not entitle you to damages if nothing actually happens to you.
There's always bias of various sorts though even if it's just the preferences of most of the people doing reviews. I liked Zagat in the pre-Google days, for example, because the demographic of the people willing to fill out a dead-tree mail-in survey about restaurants was probably pretty similar to me. (I still prefer Zagat to Yelp but it doesn't have as broad coverage.)

For all its various biases, I find Yelp OK given some critical mass of reviews. And reading some reviews can be as useful as looking at the overall rating. It's not great but, in an area I don't know, it's better than throwing a dart at the wall.

Overall, an excellent and very balanced article, especially the care taken to address what neuroplasticity really means, and what it doesn't, as well as the current state of research.

The conflation of "personal-transformation" as a "myth" with the myths associated with neuroplasticity is unfortunate though:

> [Chris McManus, Professor of Psychology and Medical Education at University College London] believes it is just the latest version of the personal-transformation myth that’s been haunting the culture of the West for generations.

&

> This myth – that we can be whoever we want to be, and achieve our dreams, as long as we have sufficient self-belief – emerges again and again, in our novels, films and news, and TV singing competitions featuring Simon Cowell, as well as unexpected crazes like that for neuroplasticity.

"Haunting"? Possibly, the author has some derision considering his "great-great-uncle" is "the inventor of the ’self-help’ movement". Regardless, it felt like a rather unscientific ax to grind.

FWIW, the author points out that neuroplasticity myths are used to justify some undesirable conclusions, though he stops short of providing examples or references.
The most useful thing to have when working with embedded electronics is to have in-circuit programmers. Please don't get into the habit of swapping parts between, e.g., the Arduino board and your own... It's getting very tedious, very fast.

The simplest programmers (ISP: In System Programmer) are only a few dollars, and they allow you to burn your creations in blank off-the-factory chips without bootloader. I think there's even an Arduino project that turns your arduino into a (very limited) STK500 compatible programmer...

> One of them being a request to "Send a payload with a Get request" . I spent nearly 2 months of my life convincing them this was not possible

I assume you know it really is possible, right? (in URL parameters - with certain limitations about size if I remember correctly... or did just IE choke at 2048 bytes? I forget...) I am not arguing you should use GET instead of what should clearly be a POST, but saying it is not possible is IMHO misleading. And there are sometimes valid business reasons to use (invalid) technical solutions.

I understand your point, but neither extreme (always staying with legacy / always rebuilding) is particularly good.
Did anyone verify the information? I think it's a hoax to drive cusomers mad/against Deutsche Telekom.

- It's not possible to announce a specific (premium) routing for just a single IP address.

- Hetzner has no DTAG Transit anymore. none. Not even for specific customers. See AS24940

- Current DTAG->Hetzner traffic uses AS33891. See https://f-lga1.f.de.net.dtag.de/

Of course this does not object the non-peering-policy claims and high prices of DTAG in any way. It's well known in the German ISP scene.
