This is gibberish. The programming tools on the iPad are already quite powerful - far better than those old basic powered micros.

There is also no reason to believe that XCode or the equivalent will not come to iOS now that the devices are nearly performant enough.

As far as a completely open system like Smalltalk goes - that was a wonderful world which I wish we lived in, but we don't - not because of Apple, but because of malware, black-hats, and cyberwarfare.

Some of those Zellers locations were super premium locations. In BC one was at Oakridge Mall, which is one of the top malls in North America by sales by square foot. They also grabbed a spot at Metrotown, another very successful mall.

Unfortunately they also grabbed a lot of other locations that were probably underperforming. They over extended themselves.

This doesn't make any sense. Citizebs United had nothing to do with self-funding a campaign. If anything a reversal on Citizens United would incentivize more self-funded campaigns, as political speech by third parties is what would be limited.

The concern with big money in politics isn't about the spending of the money itself anyway, it's the alleged connontation of what that money is buying for the other party. A self-funded candidate would be more insulated from such influence, as such a candidate cannot exactly buy their own influence.
The lack of storage isn't a problem when you are using reliable sources of generation such as nukes, coal, nat gas, and hydro. He problem is integrating wind and solar into a system that is designed for reliable generation.
Hi there, I am the creator of Picnic CSS [1], a 5kb library similar to this one. I love the page and the logo, really minimalist and clean. A couple of tips for the library:

- Subtle animations. It doesn't take many bytes, but it makes it look much better

- :active status gives visual feedback that you are clicking the element

- The grid doesn't accept gutter nor reversing order by css, which makes it not really mobile-friendly for alternating patterns in a page. There's not really a single good solution in css for both [2]

- <select> looks just like a normal input without down arrow in Firefox

Keep it up (:

Wow, this is very nice! I use UptimeRobot for one of my projects, and it took me several hours to set up the tests there. And now I configured the same tests on ping-api in just few minutes!
Yes I learned how to program on paper. It was when computer access was expensive. We learned how to write code on paper and then go over each line with a table for variable values as we run over the code.

I learned BASIC on punch cards using an IBM Mainframe for the junior high school math computer club, and it got changed to the math contest club after they couldn't afford computer time anymore.

In modern times there are IDEs to help people, but most of my best code I used to write on paper first. Visual Studio kind of ruined that as I wrote code in their IDE and painted forms for GUI access.

In my experience it's usually best to start with all the words. If you use a decent implementation that supports sparse vectors it's no problem, certainly not for these sorts of data sizes.

Usually you'll end up with a frequency threshold, but it's usually best to trim at the very low end --- like, words occurring 5 or fewer times. Further over-fitting can be controlled with regularization and parameter averaging.
Sticking to the theme about gripes about APIs, why do so many companies have APIs and no webhooks? Polling sucks. Many SaaS providers will say it's "hard" to implement webhooks but they have an API available. I'd like to know what's so hard about making webhooks available.

I've developed a system that's supported webhooks and it was actually easier to create webhooks (and have users submit endpoints on specific events) than it was to create a proper public API for the same service.
Here's my anecdote.

It was late November after Target had been open for a while. I popped in to look for Christmas stuff and I was blown away by the quality. All of their decorations and trees were dramatically better in quality than the usual cheap garbage found at Canadian Tire and Walmart. I was super impressed. I was on my lunch break and I didn't have a lot of time, so I decided I'd come back on a weekend to pick up some things.

I show up again next week in the first week of December with my friend, because he was looking to buy an artificial tree, and I was shocked to find out that they were basically sold out of all trees. They still had some decorations but not a lot. I couldn't understand it. How on earth do you run out of Christmas trees in the first week of December? I asked this to a young guy who was working there and he just shook his head in disappointment. He'd clearly been hearing a lot of this.

Their logistics were completely messed up.

I included the word "approximately". Do you think that if I was asked if I included it for no reason, that I would answer "yes"?

Which would occur more, with nothing else changed arbitrarily: A collection which is more capable of achieving ends, or one which is less capable of achieving ends, becoming more prevalent than the other over time, if both have being prevalent as an end?

Would a correct understanding of decision theory predict that having more or less true information, all else being equal, would result in an entity being more or less successful in achieving its ends?

What do you mean when you use the word "to"? Do you mean "such that ___ occurs"? Is that what the word is commonly used to mean? (What about in the question immediately preceding this one?)
In the general case, I agree; rebases do lose a bit of context. As a code reviewer, however, I find the reason I most often ask for a rebase & squash is that the "context" that I'm asking to lose is simply the author isn't taking the proper time to think about what he or she is doing, and it shows, in commit messages like,

* I can't spell
* fix tests, too, lol
* fixed for real
* fixed
* minor touchup
* Implement feature foobar from issue #123

Once the code review has completed, this history is not going to ever be useful again; worse, it impedes someone looking through the logs for useful history, and other operations like cherry-picking this feature to a branch.
Yes. I currently use Subversion at work, and the only way I keep things working smoothly is by using Git locally, and then checking changes from Git into Subversion when they're fully tested (at least developer-tested, not QA-tested). A coworker recently asked permission to branch, and our manager denied the request. The last time my workflow was like this was back in the 1990s, and it certainly feels like the stone age.

Hmm, I agree that zero configuration would be ideal, but everyone has different needs. Design can especially be opinionated, with a person deciding "this is how this should be done." Of course picking a purple color doesn't help at all in that matter (I assume it's a reference to bootstrap's default color) and one person's minimal styling is another person's obtrusive styling. It's been a while since I've personally tried it, but Skeleton might be worth a try; it's quite minimal.

I'd argue that what you're describing shouldn't even be called a rebase, even though you could use "rebase -i" to accomplish it. For example, I just use "reset --soft ; commit" instead.

Well, the original purpose of copyright was to allow creators to earn enough from their works that they could create more. (Since then I personally feel that it has turned into a form of money-grabbing.)

The argument can hardly be made that this applies to Feynman. And in this case -- especially with such a treasure trove of information -- I cannot really see much of a purpose in it not being free to distribute.
From a business's perspective, the MIT license is similar the BSD license: you can incorporate MIT licensed code into commercial products/proprietary code and only have to include copyright notices. GPL has source code disclosure implications which can be deal breakers for some businesses.

I am trying desperately to move into management role but my current company is very large and there is not much opportunity.

Honda Announces Prices for Hydrogen Powered Clarity
My favorite startup tradition I've been exposed to is Twilio's: employee jackets are something you earn, regardless of role in the company, only after you've pushed a Twilio app into production. After you do so -- and they'll coach you on it if you're not in engineering (or I suppose if you are) -- you get recognized at the next all-hands meeting and the CEO drapes the jacket over your shoulders, in a manner similar to knighting.

(They also control distribution of jackets externally, which is one of the reasons I loved my four jackets to death and wore them so frequently that many people were under the impression that I was actually a Twilio developer evangelist.)

IME, optimal register allocation isn't so important anymore. In normal code, function bodies are so small that all local variables can be kept in registers. I.e, if the # of local variables is small, like 5, then the register allocation is optimal by default. It would be interesting to see before and after assembly code from c functions that gcc generates.
The problem with the premise that APIs fulfill the promise of SOA is that APIs are necessary but not sufficient to describe the interaction between two services. For example, protocol semantics such as retry in case of network failure is absolutely critical to the definition of the contract. The Slack developer "API" is a good example -- not only do they specify your standard REST/websockets APIs, but they include semantics such as rate limiting.
Fastpacking the John Muir Trail
The author's lifetime, especially for written works like novels or textbooks.
That was the first Yourdon book I read (still have the hard-cover around somewhere), and because of that it was the last. I had the same impression as you: "sky is falling" garbage, and time has vindicated those of us who thought so. I know of Yourdon and can understand the general appreciation of the man, but because the first impression was last, I just never pursued the rest of his writing. Petty of me, I know, but there's always been a stack of other CS-related books that needed reading.

Sure, but companies like SUN have huge automated testing suites that run after each commit, as well as gazillion of branches. And the author of the code is most likely contributing plenty of those tests, if only in philosophical sense (by the hands of accompanying SDET).

And whether you like it or not, the best companies rise and fall with geniuses. You can't automate them away. You can only accommodate them or they go elsewhere and you are done.
Is it really that surprising? IPO is based on what the real value should be... is it surprising that they settle in close to that value? For companies that are barely, if as all breaking even, who are planning on investing any intake into additional marketing rather than shoring up their platform and staffing costs better.

It doesn't surprise me in the least... It does surprise me that seasoned investors wouldn't understand this better. But that's the stock market.

> But classical, frequentist techniques incorporate priors implicitly: a flat prior indicating we have no information other than the data.

That's not completely right. Frequentists don't assume a flat prior, but rather play a minimax strategy that gives a certain worst-case performance across all possible priors. For example, frequentist confidence intervals have coverage guarantees, while Bayesian intervals generally don't. The middle ground is using "objective Bayesian" methods that aim for good frequentist properties.
This doesn't apply. Independent of what? Not (we can only assume) from working.
Unfortunately, the coworkers might not be intellectually capable of understanding it at all, not even in infinite time :-( I understand this could be a management nightmare, but some things are just "given from above" and you can either turn a blind eye on them and lose the race, or use them for the benefit of your people. I would choose the latter even if I can't control it.

A well thought out article on Indian startups. India has a large number of ambitious, intelligent and hard working wanna-be entrepreneurs. However at some levels cloning is preferred over creativity and fundamental thinking. So you will see multiple startups (not unlike here in the US) competing in the same space, mostly copying each other's features. The competition is intense as labor (at least junior programmers) is cheap while the capital from angel investors and VCs looks abundant.

I was on two such teams. So for me it's like 50% so far. But your point is taken. I am more hinting at bothering your geniuses as little with distracting tasks as possible, even at cost of hiring a "cleaner" that would make sure their work is smoothly integrated with whatever flavor of version control/issue system/project management you are running. You can completely obliterate their abilities if you force them to change their workflow instead of building a workflow around them.

I thought the -i option was irrelevant to whether the merge commit is present. It's the "putting your commits directly downstream of master" that avoids the merge commit, not the use of the interactive rebase features. Right?

It's actually not Netflix making the series directly; it's being made by a separate company and Netflix is paying for US rights.

Sony has the international rights, if I am not mistaken, and they sold it to different companies across the globe, that now want exclusive rights, so Netflix doesn't eat from their table.
