I hate talking about business to non-entrepreneurs. It has always been a bad experience. I'm always told I am not doing it right. I usually get advices like "Your website should be more pretty", "why would someone use your app when there's a free (shittier) version already?", "you charge too much money, people can't afford that", "don't send emails, that's annoying!", etc
30 year sweatshirt tackling 'fast fashion'
That's a classic "all or nothing" that the article complains about. The more obscure the major the less likely Yale is the top anyway. Say you want to go to the worlds best mining engineer school. Going to Yale or transferring to Yale is not an option.

There's also a classic misconception of assuming the general public is stupider than they actually are. I looked up the transfer policies and talked to guidance counselors and got approval to transfer courses before I took my first class... Everything turned out OK. Other than the whole switching majors three times, and even that turned out OK in the end.
Also, isn't this the plot from Golden Eye?
"On the contrary, he believes that piracy positively affects sales ... The economics work differently in a global networked society. But the industries will not change. That’s why we need to take them down ..."

Personally, I think there are better ways than this. For example, he would build these products and give them away. Oh wait ... that's work.
Looked at these last year but opted for smartcard and secure pinpad reader instead.
I worked in the number 1 and 2 top rated restaurants on the Zagat survey in San Francisco in the late 90s. I was earning a base rate of $5.35 an hour being paid for 12 hours a day working 16. My dad's lab was lead by a noble prize winner. The post docs were making less than I was working more hours. No matter what we decide to do we all have to pay our dues.

That is the hardest thing for me right now, I'm not 21 anymore and I still have to pay the dues in a new career. After years of being at the top of a hierarchy mostly because of hard work a some natural talent, I now find myself at a bottom of a different hierarchy.
Well, it's either finite or infinite. Why would they assume either way?
Also, I should point out the leaf has had a 25% battery capacity increase in the new model, which should result in a direct 25% range increase since the new battery takes up the exact same space and weight as the old one.

How did they pull that off? Is it a different battery chemistry?
Please file bugs on GitHub. It looks like you're using packages built on top of ggplot2 - in particular the maintainer of ggtern seems to have disappeared.

Otherwise I'd highly recommend using packrat or similar so you can choose on a project by project basis when you want to upgrade selected packages.

I can't believe this is the top comment. This is supposed to be about AWS advice, not your personal feelings about AWS. This comment is bad and you should feel bad and everyone who upvoted it should feel bad.

So in a sense everybody is committing a crime, and because everybody does it, artists need to evolve with the state of the world.

I agree with this, but it does not change the fact that 'everybody' is committing a crime and harming the artist.
React almost made me give up front end development. And in a way, it did.
I'm trying to leave application development altogether and focus more on interactive content with JavaScript.
Creating the World's Greatest Anagram
Your brain garbage collected the intervening unneeded memories. ;-)
Actually you could say this project shows how bad copying something is. Why do I want to create something that could be copied? Why should I create a movie or a piece of software when by nature of being copyable means it's worthless?
The time for Elixir is coming near! :)
Well, you are assuming that the light from one person's eye can be seen by other people. How could people know it by then?

That was the beginning of the science. People had just started to question everything they knew, and discovered almost all of it was wrong. And good scientists keep assumptions at check anyway, even now that we have so much evidence.
As a parent of a recent college grad and a HS senior getting ready to trek off to college I would not pay for college for one of my kids if they waited 8 years. One gap year, okay so that is fine. But 8 years. My wife and I are looking forward to eventual retirement and want some control over our bank account. Eight years would put college payments solidly into my retirement years.

So from a practical standpoint cash flow is a consideration. From a dependency standpoint isn't eight years long enough for you to mature beyond financial and emotional dependency?
I Am Mentally Ill – A CS Student's Struggle with Anxiety and Depression
Please let us know which university that was, so others can avoid it. I'm glad you managed to teach yourself these important concepts despite that. I fear that others won't have been as go-ahead as you, and are instead writing the sort of crappy Javascript that brings my browser to its knees on certain websites, or makes my 6 core 64 bit phone run really slowly.
There is a graphical one available, which wasn't available when I looked at Arch.
It only works if 100% of the code behaves properly, as Apple discovered in their Objective-C GC failed attempt.
Your comment and the parent comment aren't incompatible. Increasing the size of the software industry will naturally result in much greater specialization, with high-skill folks solving the hardest problems and farming out the easier stuff to low-skill people. Likewise, in the early days everyone needed to know how to fix most things in their car, and car mechanics had to be real experts. Now most car driver can't change their oil, car mechanics are following instructions given to them by the car's computer without much idea of how those decisions get made, but inside car companies there are guys with deep insight about how to electronically balance your engine.
The Great Reckoning: Thoughts on the Deflation of Technology Bubble 2.0
Anyone have an idea of how perl6 performs? All the performance articles I've read are really old.
There must be some OCR errors in there -- the system call "create" was spelled with an "e"!
Really excellent write up. Required reading for anyone who was seriously interested in the fundamental technical / architectural issues behind what the bounty hunter brought up.
I think the last few years, 2015 in particular, have been about finding the right patterns to enable development of robust and performant JavaScript apps. It's feeling more and more like most of the gaps have been filled in, with just a few things remaining.

Remember, before frameworks like Django and Rails came along, state-of-the-art backend web development was pretty horrendous. We're still in the wild west stage for front-end, which is arguably a much more hostile development environment. It doesn't really matter if your backend toolkit is 100mb, on the front-end it absolutely does. The backend doesn't also have to deal with new browser releases having bugs that spontaneously break your website.

But I think we're honing in on the right patterns, it's felt to me that whilst there's been a lot of churn in which individual libraries we should be using, there's increasing stability in the approach they take. I'm hoping that in a little more time, the Django's and Rails' of the front-end will start to appear.
But is that the only reason? I imagine there are issues related with configuration, sharing the same medium, distances, small interruptions when you move from one connection point to another.
I must admit that apt was what converted me from FreeBSD to Ubuntu and convinced me to put up with the Linux kernel. It is so clearly The Right Thing.
Princeton doesn't do transfers, Harvard/Yale have 1-2% transfer acceptance rates, etc.

When transfers are admitted every year to my school (usually just 5-10) there's a writeup in the school paper about them. Without fail they all a) were accepted here, but chose to go to a similar/competing school like Princeton and b) are exceptionally accomplished at a young age.

A 20x speedup as reported here is not that unusual in my experience. If I work on optimizing something which has never had detailed performance analysis, I expect to achieve 3x to 10x speedups in most cases. Even 100x is not really rare.

I once found a similar thing in a commercial setting. A program had been written which could set one bit in a shared memory region for use as a feature flag. It was slowly expanded in use until it was being run thousands of times a day on hundreds of very expensive computers. I wrote a replacement program which read commands from a file and set all the bits in one invocation. This saved well over 100k USD per year if you just added up the cost of computer time without staffing. I imagine this APT fix is worth more than that.
How about all the industries like HFT or AdTech? You mentioned yourself research, there is a dire need for computing power (and I don't think it's that much of a niche).

Don't you think all these machine learning oriented start-up would like more CPU? How about big data platform?

It's very narrow minded to think that the only market is people using their laptop in their home office.
There's so much misplaced anger in this articles...

The problem is easy to explain. Look at the school.

http://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/south-caro...

It's 62% Black / Hispanic and 80% receiving free or reduced lunches due to poverty.

People reading this article need to stop blaming the administration and admit that we don't actually know how to make a student body like this succeed.

Our efforts should be focussed on discovering that, not acting surprised when issuing more diplomas doesn't improve graduate performance.
And they're mostly right -- there is great value in having one language be used by a large part of the industry.
Actually there's not a lot of work for browsers to do. Polish UI, make "logout" button, provide JS API, allow apps to handle errors better. Actually they should provide JS API to work with standard security cards and that will help to extinguish Java Applets from a lot of places. Not a lot of work, but it might start new era of web security.

I always wondered, why password-bases authentication is so prevalent, when asymmetric cryptography is there and actually used under the hood. That's a dream: one key to rule them all and no security problems with leaked accounts, unified UI to register, login, logout.
Why does this supposedly old file contain UTF-8 encoded characters? (The apostrophe in “search in the user’s current directory” is U+2019, RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK.)
It's just in desktop i5 segment. Intel threw more cores to Xeons and much higher clocks at low TDP CPUs, but that means nothing for desktop user. IPC only improved by about 25% during last few generations. Also AMD has nothing competetive in that segment.
If a Si-atom is 0.2nm, that would appear to translate to fifty atoms.
Well, whatever language you want to run, processors that are good for cache unfriendly tasks would be huge for logical AI, data mining, some kinds of image processing, and possibly a lot of other tasks.

As dies get bigger, there's no law of nature saying that CPU power must be concentrated far from memory.
I'd think you'd need those staff (or approximate) regardless of whether you used AWS or not, no? It ain't the marketing team that orchestrates all that amazon stuff.

At scale, the arguments about needing 10 admins vs needing 15, for example, start making sense.
Here's a crazy thought experiment. Instead of copying some music track, how about copying a dollar bill? What happens to the dollar bill?

Instead of sites that distribute torrent files, we'll have sites that distribute blueprints on how to build a printer that can print out perfect copies of dollar bills. Totally not illegal!

Of course, in the same way that owning a music track makes me more likely to go out and buy said music track, owning a copied dollar bill makes me more likely to go out and actually work to earn a real dollar bill. So in a sense, the same way copying music helps the music industry, copying dollars helps the economy!

The logic makes perfect sense!
They upgraded the range extender as well. Since it's more powerful it allows for the battery to be depleted further before it needs to definitely kick in which allows for a greater electric only range.
Thanks mindcrime, appreciate the share!

Mobile browsers/devices handle client certs better than any desktop I've seen. Especially since they have hw trusted storage.

The issue is identity/linkage. If they let you set up an arbitrary number of keys, so you could do one per site, that's fine (and really, if you use the same username everywhere it's sort of the same thing)

I opened an issue in the react-boilerplate repo, feel free to jump in and add your two cents: https://github.com/mxstbr/react-boilerplate/issues/46
Power used to be a lot harder to come by, so there was a lot of experimentation with nuclear tech. Some of it more sensible than others. The US only experimented with one reactor before deciding it mostly wasn't worth it. The Soviets launched over thirty reactors, to power the orbital naval radar satellites they had (which effectively monitored every surface naval vessel in the world).
a life must be balanced around certain principles; we feel it and we see the undesirable results when it is unbalanced; recalibrating -- adjusting boundaries in our lives -- is often necessary, as Pham illustrates. these boundaries must be derived from a respect for one's self, one's work (regardless of whether you are paid for that work or not -- e.g., a poet often is not), and one's family.

however, we must never throw magnanimity out the window wholesale; it would be a travesty to abandon such an essential virtue.

>So in a sense everybody is committing a crime

What is or isn't a crime evolves with society.

>harming the artist

No, harming a specific type of artist who insists on maintaining a 30, 40, 50 year old business model.

The biggest stars on the planet have their music on YouTube for free, and I'm sure their music is downloaded proportionately more as well. I'm talking about the Adeles, the Taylor Swifts, the Justin Biebers, the Drakes, the Wiz Khalifas. They are hardly harmed. They've "grown up" in the digital world, and have built their careers around it.

And it isn't the "middle class" being harmed, either. I can have an album up on iTunes, or any other number of platforms, by tomorrow. At what point in history have independent artists have access to that sort of global reach and distribution? This is a great time to be a musician.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should, but Perl isn't a kind of language that's going to stop you.
Maybe this is the source of the recurrent discussions here, and elsewhere, about how formal CS education doesn't matter (something I wholeheartedly disagree).

Universities have always been under fire to provide courses "better suited" for market needs and it seems to me that they've been slowly caving in during the last decade or so. This, of course, probably varies a lot between country and even between universities in the same country.

The fact is: university courses that degenerate into professional training courses end up providing little value. Timeless CS principles are abandoned for marketable high-level skills that are obsolete even before students finish their studies, and that help nothing when the market itself changes (or needs to change).

I see Europe's Bologna process as a perfect example of this. It was supposed to make higher education comparable between EU countries but instead now provides an excuse for shorter and shallower courses, comparable only because they don't go any further than the lowest common denominator.

What you say is really evident in some circles: a magical view of computing platforms and a complete ignorance of hardware details critical for software performance. There is a blind faith on compilers/interpreters to somehow extract maximum performance from the hardware in the face of wastefulness.

As anecdotal evidence, I've more than once had to convince people that allocating new objects by the millions (in the JVM) has a real CPU performance cost. The usual response is that the application isn't limited by memory and the time required by the garbage collector is negligible, thinking nothing about cache locality and how memory access is now a major bottleneck for modern CPUs.
yeah. Data and physical good are the same thing.
Not quite too, it's a compiler release (Rakudo), but ordinary users should stick to a distribution with common modules (Rakudo Star). Usually comes a few days after.
Perhaps a better approach than trying to figure a market value for the copies would be to simply assign a presumed value in cases where a market has not established a value. Say, a buck per copy of a pirated song.
6 Reasons Why Bigger Is Not Better in Your Startup
Software Used by the Planet Habitability Lab at Arecibo
1. Windows Phone/Mobile will probably die. Its market share will fall under 1% and so Microsoft will make only one model (Surface Phone?) just for those who want to have the "continuum" experience, but they will not invest a lot on it.

2. Windows 10 Store will remain totally unused. Microsoft won't say it is a fail but well, everyone will still prefer to use old x86 applications

3. Self-driving Cars not ready

4. Still a very low number of electric cars sold, but their price will drop making them probably a good investment in 2017/2018. In europe the situation will remain the same as today (almost no one use them)

5. Some move by apple in the low-price smartphone market. This time really low-price, they won't go for a 5C like before but for something else more simple

6. Touch screen laptop still ignored by most

7. Arm laptops hit the consumer market with linux or android on them

8. VirtualReality devices are a flop because of their costs (both for the devices and for the pc you need to use them). Almost no AAA game will support them

9. Vulkan will be a great revolution in gaming

10. All companies going back to native development on mobile instead of hybrid solutions.

11. React will slowly fall losing against Angular2
I graduated from university in the U.S. less than four years ago, and even at my community college classes they taught this.
The dollar bill's value has nothing to do with its physical properties.
As a parent my wife and I saw our role with my two girls of exposing them to as much variety and diversity in the early years as I could. Arts, music, robotics, programming, puzzles and so much more. The goal was to help my kids find something to be passionate about.

My oldest just graduated with a degree in sociology which is not one of the most employable degrees for an undergraduate. She is working part time in a library and living at home. She was meant to be a librarian and all that know her, know that about her. She has to be get a Masters of Library Science to be a librarian. She will have to put in two or so years at the library she works at to go full time without the MLS. So she stays with us and puts in the time. The good news is that she knows what she wants to do the rest of her life and to be severely dyslexic and be in a library is just awesome. Her mom and I are fine with her living at home till she can be full time since she is a saver and is responsible.

And as a person that has had mostly STEM related careers that I have loved, my youngest seems to be moving towards mechanical engineering next year. I love this about her as it warms my STEM heart.

Most important is that both seem to have found their passions. If you love your work you will likely be in the flow some and who can ask for more than that out of a career. After building several businesses my current employment gives me the opportunity to do what I love (programming and systems integration) and be in the flow. I could not be happier at work and I want that for my kids. Passion alignment is a great thing.

EDIT: And my youngest has some graphic design and art talent which I am sure will help her be a better design engineer. She was in doubt in high school if she should juggle the art and design classes along with her tech speciality center IT classes. We supported the extra work simply for the benefit of her love for creating art and design.
> implying apt is a young tool and the maintainers didn't have many years to go from 1 to 3
On the other hand, if you've already set aside the money to pay for their college, why does it matter when they decide to go? You were presumably going to use it for their benefit, so why wouldn't you want it to be used for that same purpose, just in another way or at another time.

Not to imply a parent is obligated to pay, but parents aren't really obligated to pay when their kid is 18 either. It shouldn't affect retirement savings, unless spending increased in the intervening years and ate into the investment they had planned to make in their offspring.
I'll tell Matt - he'll be pleased.

He is known sometimes, when walking past book shops, to see if there are copies of his book. If there are he sometimes surreptitiously signs a few and puts them back on the shelf.

If ever I write a book I'd find that a very tempting thing to do. I have published (note that I am the publisher, not the author) and am tempted to get the author to sign some of them that we place in shops, just because.

It's not a technical technology book - in case you're interested:
