Yea, also found that limitation of the regex library pretty annoying. But conceptually this has nothing to do with string slices being different from byte slices... It might encourage it though.

Not really a "marketing" term so much as one that became popular during the "everyone must write their own grid framework" era.
Ultimately the issue here is budget and time. With aircraft there are TONS of variables: temperature, pressure, humidity, vibration environment, dust. Even once you THINK you know all the variables, reproducing the problem in the lab might not happen--then after hundreds of hours of testing you're still at square one.

Knowing i11n and i18n, I'm fairly sure I could've figured out g11n, since they all share a similiar context.
I would actually say that it's extremely easy, but only because any carb cravings I may have are met with the flour/sugar substitutes and pre-baked goods from LC Foods (holdthecarbs.com), along with other common carb replacements like shirataki noodles. It's pretty nice that I can freely eat awesome dishes like pizza with the crust fried in clarified butter that people who aren't on a high-fat diet would never touch.

That said, it would certainly take some discipline without something like LC Foods, and I suppose there's also the issue that keto kinda forces you to become an amateur chef (but I at least enjoy that aspect and don't find that it's super time-consuming).

While the social aspect is of course an issue, one interesting thing socially is that anything I cook for guests at home is LCHF, and people are always shocked when I mention it in passing later on; e.g. one reaction to my stevia ice cream was something like "I thought it was weird that I wasn't getting a headache like I usually do after eating sugar!".
This guy not only tells people not to YC after he applied and got rejected, but also publicly bashes someone (the LA accelerator) who did their best to help him (Doesn't matter if it didn't work out. They did their best to help their portfolio companies and this guy says it was a "gimmick") I wouldn't like to work with this guy
This guy's gold! Someone can learn react and angular but he thinks they're incapable of learning some accessibility attributes? I wonder how competent he is with angular/react...
your idea actually sounds more like the military ;) since, according to that vision, individual people nor their personal responsibility do not even exist there.

can a person really just knowingly take part in any illegal activity, and as long as they're not the only employee, the company is to blame and they are free? even if that were true, and i doubt it is, it would need immediate changing.
That's a bit misleading since the A8 CPU block doesn't include the 3MB L3 cache which is counted as it's own module. On the Exynos the 2MB cache in the A57 module and the 256KB cache in the A53 module are counted as part of their blocks.
I picked up a PS Vita and it's fantastic. So far through various sales I've picked up 35 physical and digital games, so, quite the backlog to last a long while. I don't play any games on my phone anymore. I heartily recommend Persona 4 Golden, Superbeat XONIC, Sparkle Unleashed, OlliOlli, Lumines Electric Symphony, and Mortal Kombat (basically the PS3 version with scaled-down graphics).
Er, doesn't a very similar octopus/earth image make up the main body somebody's squadron patch? Said differently: I'm pretty sure I've seen this image somewhere before!

As others have mentioned, a lot of patches are downright creepy.

Why? Well, I always assumed that it was a manifestation of the terrible power that these young men and women have been ordered to wield, and create for that matter.

Before you reject that outright since I said it maybe a little too poetically, consider this:

Which member of the team gets asked to design a patch? The guy who can draw. The guy who thinks too much and reads too much. The warrior poet.

When you are asked to build something that you KNOW must never fall into the wrong hands, you take your job seriously. That weight is what is going to come to mind when you're asked to make an image to represent your work.

NB. I am completely confident that the hardworking defenders of our nation generally believe in their missions. They know that their work would be evil IFF it wasn't all being carried out by good people, like themselves.
I prefer ES6/ES2015 (currently via Babel, and considering TypeScript). The let keyword and arrow functions in particular make it a much more pleasant language to work with than plain JS. It's now competitive with CoffeeScript, but with more coherent and predictable parsing rules.
I'm a vi user, and the inability to remap something to esc is grindingly frustrating. On the road i use 'jj' and at the office I have a variety of nice keyboards. Seems like there's a niche app for keyboard remapping. I'm not sure if that would be possible unjailbroken or not.
I was on the fence about buying one of the new Macbooks (retina/2015.) Everything I read online said it was underpowered and to wait. Usually I avoid first gen devices. At the time there were no videos showing it using apps I used heavily. The light weight and excellent screen really pushed me toward buying it, so I took a bet.

Everything I use runs well. While 3D games could certainly be a problem, Photoshop, Illustrator, Tableau, browsers with tons of tabs open, across multiple virtual desktops runs flawlessly. The low profile keyboard has some issues, but it has surpassed the expectations I had even from testing it out in an Apple Store a few times.

I did end up getting an iPad Pro as well. If 1-2 people are watching it makes a good television replacement with the larger screen & great speakers. For the artists, the Apple Pencil is wonderful. The big thing negative is the free-to-play now just suck so bad compared to what we would get on PC (Anyone complaining about the last version of SimCity should try the latest iOS SimCity, about as enjoyable as choking on rocks.)

I sound like I turned in to an Apple fanboy, but being able to stick these two devices in a light backpack, and have a fully functional office has been a game changer.
How AI will really kill us all
Using ES6 here most of the time as well, there's very few reasons not to these days. Some of the changes may only be syntactic sugar but you very quickly find yourself not wanting to go back.
Nope. In C++ land, you can get the same 130k salary at a 30 person company, that builds hardware devices.
You won't be able to implement type classes. There might be something in that direction after 1.0; still, Kotlin is not supposed to be a contender with Scala w.r.t. expressive power. It is just Java with more concise syntax, and with most design patterns turned into language features: singleton, delegates, lambdas/sam, "utils" classes (extension methods).
A little different take then some here. Many founders I have worked with over the years are paranoid that a leaving employee/contractor will steal other employees or others will ask them where they are going and it becomes a distraction etc. So they get really nervous and try to control the situation, in the end it will always backfire on them. IMO, it isn't that the founders are bad people, but they are intently paranoid of anything that can disrupt their team, company etc. What most don't seem to realize is many times it is their own behavior causing the issue, not yours or anyone else. A good/experienced founder would have announced your leaving early on and been open with the team etc, many times I have seen them take credit in a small way saying what you learned there probably made you more valuable (which isn't untrue many times).

My 2 cents, tell a couple of people you like/trust at the company that you are leaving and that you would have told them sooner but that you were respecting the wishes of the founder. They will get it, and if they all know this founder will probably be able to see it. Like you said in other comments, no reason to bad mouth or disparage the situation or Founder, just make it clear you are leaving, as that is important to you.

Also, use Social Media as a benefit here. I am sure if you use LinkedIn for example, a number of your fellow employees are on LinkedIn, update your profile to show you are moving on. They will see it and reach out to you, either today or sometime soon. If they aren't on your connections list, send them connection requests so they can see your profile update etc. Just your connection request will likely trigger some interest.
HTML and CSS are the abstractions instead of reimplementing layout/display in GL
What did you work on?
The problem with these kind of articles and releases is that for most people, $9 vs $100 isn't that big of a difference... At least in the U.S. and other first-world countries where an initiative kid can earn either in a relatively short period of time, and most parents could gift it to them if not.

As others have and will point out, it isn't just $9, there's the need for another system to be able to read documentation, and work on while doing projects on said $9 computer... there's also the peripheral costs, kb, mouse, monitor which would likely run it up to close to $100 anyway.

I think the issue is sparking ideas and interest in younger people... most are more interested in writing phone/tablet apps than they are in touch with tinkering. There's a reason that Radio Shack had to shift gears, and in turn died off...

Don't get me wrong, the availability of cheap computers with decent i/o pins is really nice, and for anyone interested in integrating electronics and software, there's never been a better time... But having yet another <$100 option really isn't going to spur extra tinkering at this point... And getting exposure into schools is particularly difficult given that most people with the skills to actually work and teach for these things are likely employed at a much higher salary than they'd get in a K-8 role (at least 2-3x).

That seems like an unnecessary dig.
I have the feeling, Yahoo should just be split up. They are beating a dead horse. Maybe a few parts of it could survive on their own.

But great article none the less.
I find bland, practically identical sites to be the most useful sites. The design gets out of the way and puts the important thing - the content - front and center.

Your questions make it appear as if we have any compunction about killing anybody or anything. We've become jaded to such things.

As long as the guys frame it in terms of protecting the homeland, national security or some other vague excuse, we don't seem to care.

It's when the guys that we don't like do it that we raise hell.

It's sickening, but that's what we've become.
I own almost all the ssh clients for iOS, and occasionally use cloud9.

The browser isn't performant enough to really feel good coding in c9, and I prefer vi keybindings, so it's a no go for me.

I'm really pretty happy with ssh and vi, although there is no ssh client with mosh support extant. And getting something like solarized into your ios ssh terminal is pretty painful. I would expect at some point this year, an enterprising ssh on iOS developer will get all that sorted with high res fonts, though. The combo is pretty compelling.

My typical setup is tmux on ssh on the main pane of the ipad and the right hand window has slack or a browser or messaging, depending. It's great, very low distraction, really a nice setup.
If we had been talking about means vs. ends, I would agree.

However, we were talking about knowing HTML and CSS vs. knowing abstractions built on top of them. In that context I didn't interpret the post I replied to the same way that you did.
This article gets brought up in every post about CHIP. Maybe there's something to it but coming from a competitor this sounds a bit fishy. It was also before the Raspberry Pi Zero (made in the UK!) launched, which lacks quite a few of the CHIP's features but at $5 sets a high bar in any case.
I have an autoimmune disease (Ankylosing Spondylitis) and I've been pescatarian for a little more than a year. I'm not on any biologics, my sed rate is pretty normal and I feel SO much better. Part of my diet change is that I eat a large amount of fiber (40+ grams a day generally), which is very prebiotic. I would say it really has helped me, its probably worth trying a diet change if you have an autoimmune condition.
The “I hate Donald Trump” website – haters welcome. Put in your 2 cents
[Disclaimer up front: I'm a string theorist, so add grains of salt appropriately.]

First impression: this article's title (and some of the phrasing within the article) feels a little misleading to me. In the conversations I've seen or had with Loop Quantum Gravity people, I've almost never seen it presented as a "Theory of Everything". My impression has been that most LQG folks were proud that their work was purely focused on quantum gravity, without the added mess of trying to solve everything in one fell swoop.

Second impression: In my experience, most string theorists (certainly not all) have had no particular animosity toward LQG. It's another theory, it's not the one we're personally excited about, but more power to them. Maybe the two will meet in the middle someday, maybe not. In all my years of spending time with string theorists, I only saw a few cases of outright animosity, and LQG talks were greeted with respect but skepticism by most. So I always feel weird about articles that frame this as some sort of knock-down fight. If there's finally some hint of common ground, all the better: more tools for everybody!
Having used ES7 async/await through Babel extensively for some highly asynchronous code, I can say that it feels much better than using Promises alone, even better than using ES6 generators + a runner (especially since async/await meshes so well with ES6 classes).
I'm not sure why you are downvoted for being so clear about why the test is insufficient.
Not really? It's a valid point, it's generally easier to tinker with open source software.

Visualization of Long Term Care Costs in US
Being a small drop in a big glass of water comes with its own, albeit different, motivation. Small projects that one person, or a small group of people, can fully own are necessarily limited in scope.

Personally, I don't dream of having full ownership of my own successful little project nearly so much as I dream of playing a relatively small, but necessary, role in a big ambitious project. For me, this[0] is the dream. Look at all those elated drops of water! I think the Fleet Foxes put this pretty well in "Helplessness Blues": "after some thinking, I'd say I'd rather be a functioning cog in some great machinery serving something beyond me".

Having said all that, my point isn't that all big projects are better; obviously not every project is literal rocket science, and all else equal I find ownership more motivating as well, it just isn't the only thing that can be motivating.

There are zillions of factors that could make hiring a bootcamp grad a good or bad idea, from the type of bootcamp, to the type of individual, to the type of company, to even the interview process.

I did several online "bootcamps" (free code camp, Udacity, and some Udemy/Coursera courses), since I felt like no single curriculum really satisfied what I felt to be necessary.

I just like learning, so I made sure that I practiced every day.

And now I have a job working at a small start-up (4 employees including me). The last dev they hired was from Free Code Camp as well, and he's doing very well. The CEO of the company mentored him, and now the dev is mentoring me.

The interview process is something I think a lot of other companies could learn from--no brainteasers, no tricks, just coding. They asked me to open up a project I worked on during the bootcamp, describe it, then add a new feature. They stepped out while I was working so that I wouldn't be nervous about making a mistake. The CEO himself applauded my use of Google when I ran into road blocks.

It took about an hour total, and during that time, they were able to determine if I was fit for the position.

So I think the viability of hiring bootcamp grads stems from how good the interview process is--if it's terrible, you may be disappointed in your new hire.
Well that is pretty provocative :-) Bryan might be surprised to learn that for its first 15 years of its existence NetApp filers were Unikernels in production. And they out performed NFS servers hosted on OSes quite handily throughout that entire time :-).

The trick though is they did only one thing (network attached storage) and they did it very well. That same technique works well for a variety of network protocols (DNS, SMTP, Etc.). But you can do that badly too. We had an orientation session at NetApp for new employees which helped them understand the difference between a computer and an appliance, the latter had a computer inside of it but wasn't progammable.
No doubt the data shows a problem exists, but the stats used by this article a worded pretty dramatically. Saying "highest ever total" doesn't alarm me because drone use is (relatively) new, and increasing at a large rate. I'd expect damage costs to rise along with increased use (although ideally at a slower rate as we gain experience and make improvements).
I suspect it was already like this in the Cold War but the public heard much less about it.

The flip side of this is the bureaucratic jargon that uses relatively neutral, even innocuous terms for spying on people, imprisoning them, or killing them.

The Partition Problem
It's not certainly not always true, and the recent Yates memo shows that, in the US, the DOJ is actually pushing for more individuals convictions.

That said, it may be true in VW's case, I don't know.
It's easier to be a cog in the wheel when you really support the mission of the organization (company, non-profit, etc).

It's harder somewhere like a telecom. That said, your priorities will change as you get older. When I was younger, all I cared about was getting to work on things that I found interesting, starting a company, and big company work would start to bore me.

Now I have 2 kids and my priority has almost entirely shifted to taking care of them. Stability, benefits, college funds, family activities and events have totally replaced the outside of work time that was formerly preoccupied with obsessing about entrepreneurial ventures.

I still think about them. When you've got the bug it's not something that turns off, but it's nowhere near the same level of priority that it used to be.
oh man, I have them so beat! I have a Slackware Linux box with similar specs. 200 MHz Pentium, 32MB of RAM, and I think I have an old 10GB barracuda 80pin SCSI drive in it connected to an Adeptec PCI SCSI card. Every so often the hard disk starts making a high pitch noise but throws no errors and the noise goes away after a few minutes. It sits on a UPS and I probably have an uptime of a few years on it now. It has been running nearly 24/7 since 1996! Only powered off when I needed to move the box from a home-office and a few rented offices over the years.

When it was in the basement of my home/office, I would sometimes hear it's disks wine as I was working out (lifting weights and such). It was even in my basement through parties in my early bootstrap years.

I originally bought it to run WinNT 4.0 for a new company a friend of mine and I bootstrapped. I would guess a couple years later is when I put Slackware on it. It's running a 2.0 linux kernel. It's not exposed to the public Internet.

It use to be a local Samba, DHCP, and DNS server for the company. I eventually upgraded to new hardware and left this server around for redundant backups. I develop software so copies of my git repositories find their way onto this box each night. It is in no way relied upon other than to call upon it out of convenience if another server is down or being upgraded, etc...

At one point the box was in the basement of my home when a small amount of water got to the basement floor and because the box sat just high enough on rubber feet, no damage. Occasionally I go back there and pull the cob webs off it.

There is no SSL on it. We still telnet into it or access the SMB shares for nostalgia. It's sort of a joke in the office these days to see how long it will last or if it will simply out last us.
You can't see software. You can't touch it. It can spontaneously change shape, form and function in dramatic ways if a single memory bit gets corrupted.

How did the article make the jump from the author being unable to find their perfect candidate to the rejection of trickle down economic and asking for donations?

We've had cheap computers in every generation, remember the Sinclair ZX81 ? ($100 when a PC was $1500+)

What sparks tinkering and innovation is open minds and creative thought processes.

(as well as laws that don't get in the way of tinkering)

Those kinds of minds find the tools, not the other way around.
While I agree that the writer's interviewing (or lack thereof) focused too much specifics, I still have to agree with the conclusion in the title (Good HTML/CSS/A11y skills are hard to find). The majority of candidates I interview struggle to explain the difference between `.a.b` and `.a .b`. Kind of hard to write maintainable CSS without that knowledge.
A big part of salary is location, but there's plenty of 100k to 150k jobs out there.

Marketing isn't a problem though, it's a solution. If you can figure out what exactly the problem is suppliers are having, then it's a matter of solving it. This should make it much easier for you to find an affordable process to get them onboard. Just my 2 cents!
I really don't have any faith in the company, I have an otto camera. They abandoned all support and development for it as soon as it was shipped to backers. (one update) Felt like, "we've got your money, here is the minimal amount of stuff to keep us legal....now go buy or other stuff"
