3) Communication gets a lot more complicated

The hardest point!

Not because we don't communicate enough. The amount we did changed sometimes we had daily standups with skype, sometimes we did only chat a few minutes a day via slack.

The problem is not how or how much you communicate.

But the clarification of what is communicated.

If I get told, "we need a feature that..." They can tell me this 10 times a day. Via skype, via slack, I even could be in the office right before them and they tell me about it and it still can be wrong.

I mean, people understand that what I implemented IS what they said, but sometimes not what they meant.

In Italy for example is the exact contrary of the silicon valley mindset where everybody will say "cool!". You will likely get criticisms like "it's nice but will hardly work" and so forth. This has the effect of discouraging people a lot. However as you said, the reverse is also dangerous. There must be a middle ground where it's possible to get balanced criticisms that make founders aware of the risks of a given business.

Obviously this is fake. I can't imagine satoshi saying "we are all satoshi" - so much cringe...

Plus, we know that the gmx account was hacked and it seems it was hacked through a simple guess of his birthday. As such, it seems reasonable to suggest that satoshi wanted that (gmx) email to be hacked since it had such a weak password. If that is the case I think we can assume that the vistomail is probably hacked too for the same reasons satoshi would have wanted the gmx email to be hacked.

Plus, I think it is now sort of obvious that Craig is not satoshi. There is speculations that this guy does not even have a supercomputer:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/3w5ro9/wright_not...

As such it may be the case that he conned the ATO out of a 45 million tax "rebate" and then tried to claim he is satoshi to perhaps keep the scam going or make it more credible (although his silence and even his apparent deletion of his online presence is somewhat puzzling.)

Moreover, the "trust fund" smoking gun document reads like one of those phishing emails you get - a puzzling misstated amount, an unended sentence, peculiar "against my advice" comments and looks overall amateurish. Furthermore, people have been trying to find peer reviewed journals from this guy (he claims he has 100) with no success so there is much doubt of his claims he has a PHD, well two PHDs and a dozen or more Masters.

Not to mention his seemingly inability to spell.

If, thus, it is somewhat obvious that this guy is not satoshi, I don't see why the real satoshi would find it necessary to make the somewhat cringy comment above which sounds like a "commoner". Same goes for the "I am not Dorian". Neither is in anyway evidence or in anyway proves anything and in both cases it is/was obvious the person was not satoshi so the comment was unnecessary.

Therefore, I think these accounts have simply been hacked and the real satoshi never made such comments in either case.

The question then is what is NoSQL. Does mongoDB a NoSQL engine? can you scale it to 10s of TBs? Can you really scale out MongoDB? I can ask the same for Redis and a whole line of other NoSQL engines that are not really scale out solutions.

(yee, you can shard both Mongo and Redis, as well as MySQL and get to 10s of TBs).
That would be interesting to know. A lot of transcoders can make multiple passes over the source, so being able to reuse the meta data generated for subsequent passes at different output qualities might help speed up the process. I dunno, not my forte, just thinking out loud.
As an Indian, I doubt I'll qualify for work in these companies. The problem for non-EU, non-US devs wishing to work remotely [1] is that most companies can't legally employ you or aren't willing to jump through bureaucratic hoops just to employ you.

I'd subscribed to a remote-only jobs board and the issue was that either I didn't qualify for work due to my residency, or the company never really responded.

I would say if these issues didn't exist most companies wouldn't have to import a workforce from elsewhere. Most third-world countries have a decent quality of life that we wouldn't have to transplant ourselves & be harassed by less-qualified xenophobic residents just to work and pay obscene taxes (by third-world standards) that in the end does serve them.

I'd love for the EU and the US to become more Anti-immigrant (thankfully it's rising) and for the populace to wake up once the industries that kept them at the top move out of there.

[1] - Most of us speak fluent English and are aware of western cultural sensibilities & work ethics (thanks, Hollywood! & outsourcing firms). Our skill level isn't to blame either since we adhere to industry standards in code-quality, best practices, design patterns, etc.

I'm Westernized, loved America & the U.K. when I visited them and the people were awesome, but thanks to nationalities and nationalists the U.S. has imposed these arbitrary impediments designed to keep away those willing to move from their native countries to further their careers.
>their success baffles me

what you described is a typical enterprise software which naturally leads to its maker being a solid tech performer. Enterprises like enterprise software. In my experience, in addition to all what you mentioned, the Jira was also slow as hell on our pretty large deployment. Like an icing on the cake, it made it very enterprise-y and natural in our BigCo environment. Mid management and their suckers loved it during those couple years of Black Death... err...

Reducing feminism to extremists who co-opt the term feminism is the same as holding up "Islamist" terror groups as a representation of all Muslims.

Two different situations. One a bunch of people smoking outside. Where each sig release 11-19mg of smoke with 500mg being a potentially lethal dose. And someone near it getting 1/2% of that is reasonable.

People like JVMs because they provide a lot of services that are really useful, such as:

• State of the art garbage collectors, which you can tune for throughput or low pause times (there's a fundamental tradeoff here, there's no one-size-fits-all GC algorithm)

• Visual debugging that always works, including remotely

• Stack traces that always works

• Advanced profiler and monitoring tools

• Very robust and portable build systems

• Extremely fast compiles (this is touted as an advantage of Go, but I never find myself waiting for a compiler when working with Java or Kotlin).

• Giant standard library and even larger ecosystem of well designed and documented libraries to do many different tasks

• Language interop - you can normally use libraries written in one JVM language from others. This obviously helps with the former point.

• In some cases (e.g. actor frameworks and big web servers) code hotswapping and dynamic loading.

The Go runtime lacks a good chunk of these useful features: the last time I worked with a Go shop they told me debugging hardly worked, because error handling was "propagate an error code" they never had stack traces in their logs for failures, profiling was primitive or not available at all depending on platform, the standard library was small (compared to the JDK), and language interop was "it can call C". Also the GC sucked, though I heard they have a better one now. But it's still a one-size-fits-all approach, which has well known problems.

How to dynamically distort images to fit your graphic design
When you're speaking to another programmer, explaining what a bit of your code is trying to do, do you speak in mathematical notation? I doubt it. I don't think even mathematicians do that.

If you want a well-expressed explaination for why Perl's approach is a good idea, you should read what Larry Wall has written about it. All I can really say is that it worked really well for me and my team for many years. We rarely misunderstood each other's intent, even though our code reviews were mostly just reading commit diffs.
This article explains how to automatically distort images using dynamic image manipulation URLs. You can consistently shape and customize your images to fit any underlying image and any quadrilateral shape. The shear and distort image effects are especially useful when used together with image overlays to create 3D perspectives. Sample code included for Ruby, Javascript (Node.js), PHP and more.
I'm envious of these capabilities. I wrote the backend for a streaming service that streams about forty channels to a quarter of a million mobile users in Africa. We get source video from our content providers that has given me grey hair. The problem is that I simply can't spin off the encoding and source quality checks to the cloud because of bandwidth costs here. So I do the quality checking and compression on local servers and then upload the compressed output to the servers.

I'd kill for a 100 megabit line at a decent price.

If by "inbuilt concurrency" you mean Go-style channels/green threads, there's something called Quasar which adds that. Otherwise Kotlin inherits all the concurrency support the JVM provides, including quite advanced things like speculative hardware transactional memory.

Get her a bike!
If we all lived in huts, subsisted on rice and beans, and travelled by bicycle, humanity wouldn't be threatening the stability of the biosphere; but of course, we're wired to crave richer experiences, we hoard, and we seek to acquire status which is demonstrated by how much excess cargo we have to waste.

The more aspects of the human experience we can ephemeralize, the less we need to go out and muck up the physical world to get what we want.

A just released Pew research study has shown that 1 in 5 are online almost constantly. Which is to say, their experience of the world is already largely virtual, and the role that their physical presence plays is, by extension, diminished.

Note: late 2014 incident, with Samsung releasing firmware fixes throughout 2015. It seems not all users report resolution, as of this post, due to Samsung delivering firmware updates only to fridges with certain newer panel display boards, which implies users with older displays may need to upgrade their panels to receive the firmware updates. This represents the Samsung RF4289HARS refrigerator (28 cu. ft. French Door Refrigerator with Twin Cooling Plus Stainless Steel), running a custom Samsung-maintained GNU/Linux operating system, and an LCD touch screen with apps, so you can use vendor-maintained apps, such as Pandora and Google Calendar, in the kitchen. It seems, unlike Android/iPhone apps, the fridge-based Google Calendar app may contact different Google-hosted equipment...Google may have moved that equipment, without updating the settings in their Calendar app (?) It seems users report resolution, with Samsung firmware update 2.690 and above. At the thread, user shared an example of the error: https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/calendar/UhfpcwO0X0c/... . Some users report getting into their fridge Developer Mode: Enter Engineering Mode and then L - L - L - R (over and over until in), which unlocks a "force update" option, but "may require an SD card with software loaded in it to do anything." One user successfully swapped out the panel and shared a few pics: https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/calendar/UhfpcwO0X0c/...

Exactly. Stride and posture are vitally important for a healthy run. As someone with a sprinters build and stride to match any amount of long distance (over 5k) puts a massive strain on my shins. I have a mid foot strike which is quicker over short to mid distances but is completely unsustainable for longer distances (for me at least). Full time running training (5-7 days week) also inevitably results in shin splints. Watching people run in the park it's clear that only ~5% have put any thought into their stride and posture.

Not quite. If you had a zero width wing you get a void behind the wing. Aka you pushed air down so it's not there.

This creates a low pressure area behind the wing. But, that low pressure is still pushing down. It just pushes less than the normal air pressure under a wing.

You can see this by dropping a single sheet of paper vs a stack of paper. In your model the low pressure above the wing pulls the paper up slowing it's decent. But, if you drop a stack of loose printer paper the top piece falls as fast as the bottom and is not pulled from the stack.

>Do we base them on the same scale ?

I am not sure why we need to assign a badness rating to this kind of thing. And people should not need to equivocate based on some sliding scale of injustice. Anger does have a role to play in changing society. It just gets tricky when people base their whole world view and identify on a single issue. Feminist views are interesting and elucidating but need to be read with a critical eye. Of course a lot of the victims will have no choice in how profound these issues are to them so it is best to be forgiving.
