well nobody has been successful at calling out to BLAS/LAPACK from nodejs. I wonder why. is there a certain signature that the functions must expose or something ?
Sounds like they just make the non-black stuff brighter. Like how you see "black" on a white projector screen.
You are the only person in this thread to mention RPG. :-)
I don't trust them. The various language bindings are maintained by random people who have gone through no particular vetting, and their code is not formally reviewed by anyone.

When I started looking through the node bindings, I found a number of minor bugs and a critical issue that left ~1% of passwords vulnerable.

I trust that the C developers do a good job, but phc-winner-argon2 does not appear to have ever made a formal release. Is master really always perfect?

It's not ready yet.

Playing chess better than humans was certainly deemed impossible by some people (not the ones who wrote chess programs, of course). See for example Hubert Dreyfus:

That really assumes that

1) Tickets are detailed enough and have been for a long enough period of time.

2) The functionality that's to blame was implemented in one ticket.

Unfortunately, that's almost never true anymore for anyone.
That's irrelevant to the point made.
The incentive existing and being stronger for some more than others, is entirely unrelated to the actual profits brought in currently.

It's a longterm plan, and I believe good for the environment and consumer.

> The company is bigger than you are, its decisions weigh heavier than yours. Stop with the ego-belief that you know better than it. It's cold comfort to be right, so just get behind management and try to make the new direction work.

I don't want to put too fine of a point on it, but it sounds like you might have missed the point of the article. The author was saying that efforts to improve business outcomes by closely managing engineering work often have the exact opposite effect of what is intended. As you soon as you start trying to measure developers you slow them down, hence the title.

I don't think it's "ego-belief that you know better" if a business says "we want to ship things faster, let's try doing X" and you see that X actually slows things down to then say, "hey let's not do X, it actually slows things down."

The author does seem to think he knows better than anxious middle managers who are overly eager to change how things are done. But, well, I'm inclined to believe that he does.

That said, there are very real concerns and worthwhile motivations that lead managers to start closely project managing engineering. And in reality free-form engineering can lead to lots of time wasted on personal obsessions, or just plain slacking. So I agree about the rose-colored glasses.
Having testable hypotheses is a good thing, but, e.g., the moon is made of cheese is also a testable hypothesis, and one that doesn't require a huge amount of scholarship to debunk.

Similarly, this mechanism really doesn't make much sense, nor does it take a lot of scholarship to debunk. Zika is a relatively small single stranded positive sense RNA virus of around 11kbp, the piggyBac transposon system is from a much larger DNA virus and is ~2.4kbp in some of the so called 'minimal' implementations... if it were there, through some convoluted, ridiculous way (multiple runs of DNA being transcripted into RNA that some how managed to arrange themselves correctly on the virus's RNA that, when incorporated into a host cell, the transposon could then be encoded back into DNA and written into the host's genome?), it'd stick out like a sore thumb and be immediately implicated by the scientists sequencing the virus. I'm not even sure it's readily possible to bring those two pieces of genetics together in the lab, let alone in nature.
I've had many bad trips, like really bad. What has helped me eliminate the fear and terror is to mix it with alcohol (being slightly drunk during most parts of the trip). It may not work for everyone but it has certainly worked for me. All my recent trips have been wonderful.
Sandboxing is great. Isolate certain functionality in a separate process, sandbox it with OS-provided solutions like seccomp-bpf or capsicum, make it terminate on a violation, design its API to be idempotent so you can just restart the process on failure. Have rlimits on process memory usage. There are technical solutions and development processes to write better, more secure software.

The problem is of course that software has to be designed for this, it's not something that can easily be slapped on as an afterthought. It demands more of the design, and that's not easy to motivate in most organisations. Forcing the developer to take security into consideration would be better, but the root of the problem is that most organisations don't consider security that important, even if they say they do.
I'm guessing you're new in this trade.
Facebook doesn't have my trust now. They shut down things easily without taken into consideration their users. See what it did to Parse.

These are artworks, and even though they are made with limited technology they are built to those constraints. You can't update the medium and not lose the essence of the piece.

You don't make super mario more appealing to modern audiences by rendering it from first person. We should build emulators so that people can play the original. Or you can draw inspiration from the original and make a new piece that works in modern ways.

So I think it would be waste of effort. Colorizing historical photos is cool, but I don't think it's the same thing.

From my point of view - and I've gone through almost each available antidepressants in 10 years battle with depression - every new solution, that will relieve patients from their struggles (even for short part of time) - is a bless. Sure ketamine won't solve problem permanently, but todays 2nd and 3rd generation medicaments dont do it either. There is a moment, when you simply want to feel a relief - from sorrow, stagnation, fear, guilt and hopelessness. If it's true, that ketamine gives you this relief, then sign me up! :) And it don't have to do anything else. Because, there are people who simply cannot remember how it feels to live without depression - if you can somehow remind them how it is not to feel anything depressing, this may be powerfull boost for keep fighting.

I think it can be tough for folks to disrupt enterprise collaboration when they try to attack it with consumer social networking. Do I want to chat with coworkers all day and be bombarded by notifications? I like not being able to get to my personal Facebook when I'm at the office and we know that multitasking productively is a myth at best and may actively reduce our mental performance[1][2].

The thing is, the biggest component of enterprise collaboration is information and knowledge management. If Facebook is leveraging its existing information management feature set this platform would be a no-go for me, because their whole set-up is designed to push new information at you and bury anything else as soon as possible. As well, chat or groups without file/information/data management features is a quarter-measure.

I guess it depends on how sensitive they are. I'd warrant that 99% of communications aren't sensitive enough to bear in mind whatever risk you're implying. And really 'sensitive' communications probably shouldn't even take place by email, but face-to-face.

I'm 100% in favor of "checking out mentally". Only I describe it differently. When you start insisting on what's good for the business and your employer disagrees, there's only so far you should go, because in the end they're paying you to do what they (possibly unreasonably) want. It's okay to push back against micromanagement, but that should be viewed as a selfish struggle for better work conditions (or better pay to compensate), not a selfless struggle to make the company better.

Engineering is just applied science. And other engineering fields experience the same types of failure that software engineering experiences -- cost overruns, undefined requirements, unseen technical hurdles, etc.
Young engineer, I tried being entrepreneurial. I confirm team leads don't like it, even if the company displays the marketing you describe. Better become more skilled in your field than just overly motivated. It's sad that we only understand that after a few years in the job.
You'll need to qualify that critique, because the SharePoint installs I've consulted on have ended up with quite a high acceptance and use rate and have seen employees self-elect (without forcing them) to stop using email and shared drives for file collaboration).

I presume the "natively" here means that the Linux kernel has been taught how to do this, rather than some tooling written by the OEM being responsible for it.

Like the difference between installing the VMWare Toolbox on a Linux guest (which builds and injects proprietary kernel modules written by VMWare), vs. using open-vm-tools, whose modules live in the kernel tree to begin with and are maintained by the kernel devs.

Or you could just reproduce the original license, which is all that's required. It's really the stripping of the license out of the file that is the problem, since the original LLVM license specifically states that the license grant is incumbent upon keeping the license text in place. Even though in reality you copied/pasted the text out in to a new file, it's really the equivalent of removing the license text and all of the other code you didn't need.

The opacity exists because the utilities bundled them that way. Energy generation, energy sales and grid maintenance are three separate businesses, but in many states at least two (if not all three) of those are bundled under the same company.

The opacities create distrust - how do you know that an increased "grid maintenance" fee is a true representation of that service, and not an attempt by the utility to cover up losses in other areas?
Well, there are 100s of thousands of tests checked into various repos. WebKit has > 45k tests and there are open test suites for many web apis. Of course it's work to get some testing infrastructure setup but once setup it's mostly automated?

On 3, I've read about certain American groups that have a history of psychedelic use, holding confessional sessions on their hike to the trip location. This was a chance to clear the air and remove concerns from the users mind that might play on them while in the trip.

Interestingly, due to the low doses many groups take they take these after encouraging a period of fasting and speed deprivation.

Anyway, outside of my area of expertise but something I consider interesting.
The new standard way is supposed to be used by all vendors, instead of a slightly different proprietary method separately maintained by each. So you'll have the usual "design by committee, with all committee members being direct rivals" bloat.

And it seems that this is one of the first actual hardware implementations of said method; the OS-side software implementation has so far only been tested against emulators. It's not that surprising to see bugs here.
Yet agile implemented top-down without team ownership of what to work on is not agile and not good for the health of the codebase. I have seen it fail repeatedly.

Basically, if your team is skilled and capable, the process is not that important, as they will find a way to get things done. If the team is not good, the process won't make them much better. The key to a smoothly performing software dev team is good hiring and good coaching.
AFAIU the commission can indeed do it and sadly until now it can be considered the most powerful institution in EU. At the same time the commission is not a very democratic institution, because the members and the director of the commission are not elected by the European population and the acts of the commission are not underlying to much control from other institutions.

If I understood it, the situation got a bit better last years as the parliament has a bit more power now - but I don't know the mechanics.

Disclaimer: This is only my uninformed understanding as an EU citizen.

So far the only font I found that supports a lot of that sort of thing is DejaVu Sans mono but even that is rather sparse- there's very few Greek letter super/subscripts say, and there's a limited selection of Latin superscripts. Block elements and box drawings wouldn't hurt either.

> Having a technically-blind management isn't going to work, especially if it leads to policies like "no refactoring" or "no time for tests".

That's the entire idea of technical debt. It's just like real debt, only that it's cost is development time. And it takes time to pay it down. The only difference is that it's not reported on a balance sheet, so management doesn't care about it.

There seems to be a mismatch indeed in incorporating common sense aspects and the proposed symbolic methods to solve them. Common sense seems "fuzzy". It doesn't look like rules and symbols are rich enough to cover its essence.

On the other hand, context has to do with a slot-like thinking architecture. If I wake up in the weekend in the same bed, I'm acting differently than during the week. Moreover I am easily think of a scenario in which I wake up in my bed on a raft on the ocean.

I'm not aware of any connectionist framework that comes close. 1) Polychronization doesn't tell how to connect groups. 2) Global workspace theory is "homogeneous" connectionist. As is Copycat. 3) Alternatives such as ARTMAP are not grammar like either. 4) Bayesian methods or dynamic field theories care even less about representation.

We really have a lot to figure out in the coming decennia! :-)

I've worked for companies like this. What's hilarious is that most of the employees at these companies take the process very seriously (they obviously don't know better). I've worked at both startups and big companies - I find that fine-grained management in big companies is extremely inefficient. In software, the more constraints you add to a project, the slower things will progress.

It gives non-technical managers extra visibility at the cost of speed and agility.

I can't help but chuckle to myself whenever we have a 'retrospective meeting' - Every single time, it's the same problems that come up over and over again (related to management/communication issues) and these problems never get fixed.

What's even funnier is that the closer we get to a deadline, the more meetings we have - And the more it slows us down.

There is a fundamental problem with having very fine-grained cards/stories/tasks; often, related tasks are assigned to different people but it would have been much more efficient to assign all these tasks to a single person.
Probably been bitten by estimates being treated as deadlines issue. So he just doesn't bother.
