But it is a problem when you only release 4 or 5 OS updates per year. All the built in apps on iOS require full OS updates to patch. Some iOS minor versions have existed solely to patch Apple Music. It's pretty terrible.
A open letter to my CEO (Yelp)
A lot of things Apple does is ridiculous, or at least they seem ridiculous - they seem so to me at least (or maybe I just find them frustrating). But I think (and I don't have a detailed theory regarding this) it works well for Apple's walled garden business strategy. Good or bad, they seem to be selling well.

As it has been said many times - they sell "experience", not merely products. Now, in today's tech market this is up for debate and fairly so, but people (the people who exclusively buy Apple products; in most cases because thsoe are Apple products) do believe they are buying that so called experience and what that experience lacks they explain to themselves as features.
I was about to suggest the building of this very sort of thing. Glad to know it already exists.
Ah, I guess I'm interested in becoming more proficient in languages that have very tight control over memory. I didn't mean the comment as a dig against C#. I like the language a lot!

I think I've been reading too many snooty remarks about non-C++ languages, and the jab in my post probably shouldn't have been there.
This sort of thing could be handled with an extension of personality rights law.
I agree about the design comments! C# is a lot more pleasant to work with. I really shouldn't have put the 'recovering' bit. It was pretty juvenile and didn't add to the discussion.

In response to your PS bit, has your build environment ever restricted which features you're enabled to use? Do you avoid certain parts of C++ due to needs of your project?
Or a flaky bit in the RAM or (very rarely) storage media.

Actually, of the the examples mentioned in the article, I preferred the text the Bad Quarto over the Folio.

For instance the reversal of roles between the sentinels in the opening scene appeals to me. Somehow it evokes memories of myriad times I was tasked with some nonsensical assignment that was hard to take seriously. I can imagine being the sentinel on duty, perhaps sitting down and reading a book rather than being on the lookout.
Hah! The exact same thing happened to me.

I'll admit my total naivete up front: isn't Swift already a typed language? Is there something about being a web framework that necessitates some other kind of type safety?

It's ironic that graphic tool kits for desktop or mobile apps are adopting CSS and declarative approach, when the front-end is desperately pushing for javascript everywhere.
Just took a glance at this, and it doesn't seem the book suggests that the whole of the animal kingdom has consciousness, right? Could we attribute this to a spider or a scorpion? Of course this depends on the definition of C, but we can agree there's a "higher" form of consciousness, which the book is mostly exemplifying by using elephants and wolves. These larger creatures seem obvious, but serve no evidence to whether or not the simpler lifeforms like insects, and even small fish have anything more than basic instincts.
Yeah, what you're doing right now is called "reverse cargo cult". Not only you know that your fake airplanes are made from straw / your country's government is corrupted but you also claim that the real airplanes are also made from straw / other functional governments are completely corrupted.

That's created by humans, FOR humans, that we want to get along with!

I am nice to squirrels, I just happen to like them. Rats, I don't like. Cockroaches I really don't like - when I see one in my house, I take a slipper and kill that sucka.

Here is quick and dirty WebGL view of that Nefertiti model:

http://alteredqualia.com/xg/examples/nefertiti.html
The marriage penalty is simply absurd. My wife and I have talked about getting divorced to save money, but staying together, and then getting married again later in life when the healthcare-related benefits might start to make it worth it.

Getting rid of the marriage penalty seems like something that could get support from both sides of the political spectrum. It would mean lowering taxes, and it also would mean helping to encourage two-earner families and - practically speaking - help women have more powerful and high-earning careers. That said, I think the penalty only kicks in above a certain combined income, so maybe there aren't actually enough voters personally affected by it.
I think this is a great idea, let the H1B prices be freely controlled by market, and let companies buy/sell H1Bs among themselves.

People have mentioned that this makes things more expensive for companies. This is true, but i wish someone would take the side of the immigrants (there are only a few of us, and we can't vote!). Companies oppose this because its more expensive, and politicians oppose it because its "taking jobs away from Americans" and anyways immigrants on H1B can't vote. Of course, if we don't like it we should just "go back home", even if we have been here for years, have houses, spouses, jobs and friends here and don't have roots back home anymore. Immigrants have to put up with a lot of crap:

- a very short deadline to find a job if you are unemployed on H1B. Technically 0 days! - its only an unofficial grace period at the mercy of the whims of an immigration officer. meaning constant uncertainty and scrambling to find a job ASAP lest the immigration gods smite you down.

- ridiculously long wait times for green cards. in some cases 10+ years.

- unable to move companies while in the green card process. if you do, you go right back to the end of the line. many companies know and abuse this. during this time, you are pretty much a slave to the company - think about it, if you don't ultimately have a choice to switch companies without throwing away years of waiting, you have no means of recourse when they treat you poorly.

11 Important Model Evaluation Techniques Everyone Should Know
Is there no C line in the animal kingdom? If so we're saying spiders and cockroaches are conscious? Surely there's a distinction, and nobody really doubts elephants, dolphins and great apes, but we can clearly see the difference in quality of C. So if there is some kind of line or distinction within the animal kingdom, where would it be? Are insects the end of mechanical behavior? Or could that line extend to small fish and crustaceans? I think the article is using the word "feeling" a little too freely here. By the same measure, There could be an experiment suggesting cockroaches get stressed, and if so, would we be so quick to say they have feelings?

Nope. Did you read through how BigPipe works? It's more than a handful; they basically load a whole bunch of mini web pages inside of another. I'm actually impressed they get better performance doing that; I would have thought condensing everything down would net much better performance. It would at least improve latency but I digress.
Yes, there are laws, they're completely ineffective. They need to end the fiction that subsidiaries of a multinational are in any way independent financially.
To anyone wondering, this is also what the "big boys" do, so dont feel like this is a hack. Most big companies have their own company root CA, and install that cert on their company computers. They then have all internal apps use a cert signed with that root CA (or derivative thereof)

You can set defaults in a sensible way in which many non-power users could just get used to, and at the same time offer intuitive ways to hide and rearrange so that power users can easily make something that is highly personalized. There's already some of this going on, like checkboxes that allow you to hide future messages, or configuring hotkeys.

Every time I see Linux used in a project like this, it feels like hitting a trim nail with a sledgehammer. I hadn't seen mbed OS prior to this article, and after perusing the documentation and checking license (apache), I have to say I'm pretty stoked about it. mbed os seems to be far better suited for tiny / lightweight devices than Linux ... anybody used it in an actual project? Have any thoughts to share?

No it does not. You can verify the data has not been modified given the HTPS even if it has passed through arbitrary untrusted process in the middle. Think about the ISP being outside the SGX enclave and having the same ability as Relay.

Just because something is legal doesn't mean that it's okay, from a values and ethics perspective. This is precisely why so many people are frustrated with the very notion of a corporation; it has most of the rights and none of the moral compass of a human. I find it troubling that so many folks here are quick to argue what distills to, "if it won't land you in prison and it's better for your shareholders, you pretty much have a responsibility to behave in an antisocial manner". Antisocial as in: short term profits over societally accretive goals for the future.

I feel comfortable in my position because corporations benefit directly and indirectly from infrastructure provided by all three levels of government; everything from roads to schools for their employees kids. A smart player would put money back into the public coffers so that people could be taken care of, not hoard it for the already-wealthy. Why? Because there needs to be a functioning middle class to buy your products (and click on your ads).

I'm reminded of Penn Jillette talking about how he rapes and murders exactly as much as he wants (eg. not at all) without needing a divine entity to tell him not to do those horrible things.
From the original Medium post:

"I have to save as much of that as possible to pay my rent ($1245) for my apartment that’s 30 miles away from work because it was the cheapest place I could find that had access to the train, which costs me $5.65 one way to get to work."
the little microprocs I'm dealing with, couldn't even run Linux (256kb storage, and 32kb ram). I'm using it, but only for prototyping so far. Works nice enough so far, except that I'm not very good at C/C++! The ecosystem their setting up around their yotta tooling is very promising.

It's just annoying to have to re-implement sequence/traverse and every combination of monad stacks you want to for each type. It's doable, but bug prone and frustrating.

I now work for one of the largest scala teams in the US. We make heavy use of the Scalaz project and regularly use monad transormers or free monads and both require higher kinded types.
As a user, I'm glad they are hiding keywords. First of all it is private data, and secondly websites where doing all kinds of annoying stuff with the information (eg. they added a list of search terms used to find the page on the bottom of the page, presumably to further increase Google rank for these terms).

But I really miss the time when I saw the keywords that people used to find my page. Lots of insight that is now lost.

I hope not.

Service workers seems like an incredibly dangerous feature to have in a web browser. If developers need geofencing notifications or assets caching for example then implement a tightly focused API. But to allow any developer (including rogue ones) to slow the browser and computer down will be a nightmare for inexperienced and experienced users alike.
What you are talking about is nepotism.

Networking is where people, usually former colleagues, will remember you (positively) when their employer asks them "Hey, we need someone who can do X?" And vice versa.

If you can't make friends with people you work with, that will make networking hard or impossible but you can't blame that on "networking".

Despite being a nice experimentation, I don't think there will be any practical use in a real project. CSS preprocessors already allow us to style things with minimal structure and complexity. We already have a large set of tools to do exactly that, and if you want to add JavaScript to your CSS, just don't. It doesn't add value to anything apart from making it slower.
There is a third option, its all just matter, but matter is inherently conscious. I subscribe to this view.
You can use Flask with either Python 2 or Python 3. I personally use Python 3 for everything, so I can't comment on packages that don't work in Python 2.
Yeah. That post inspired me to build this extension in the first place. I don't look much at my desktop (there is always something on top of it) so I figures a good place would be the new tab page.

You might be right, you might not be, in the general case. In the specific case getaddrinfo is not performance sensitive (to say the least) and that entire block could be specially compiled 10x slower or run inside of a trivially available sandbox.

I don't really know anything about this topic, but the parent comment leads me to believe that you would use a UDP proxy to hide your address. Instead of sending out your address, you'd send out the proxy's address. When the proxy receives data, it would pass it to you. That way the other party doesn't know your address; they only know the proxy address. This is just a guess based on how I assume proxies would work, so I may be wrong.

I think most of us do agree. The official documentation is written as though the reader is already intimately familiar with the internals of git. I'm a smart guy, and I've read the official docs numerous times but every single time I failed to come away with a greater understanding than I had before. The commands are not particularly intuitive either.

I personally think git is fucking awful.

... but it's the best version control system anyone's come up with so far. It sucks less than the alternatives and I use it for all my projects.
The more advanced a type system is, the more it depends on what you do with it when designing an API. A well designed API in a language with a rich, expressive type system can make higher-level guarantees. On the opposite side of the spectrum you could just use Strings for most of the types (it’s web after all!) and it would still be type safe, although the type guarantees wouldn’t be of much use.
A year in a paying position is an excellent opportunity for advancement. The author's entitlement shines incredibly brightly when she makes her point. What's so special about her that she should be offered advancement faster? Her English lit major? Pshaw, I can get one in every Starbucks.

Fun fact: one word not in this article: roommate. 'The author's greatest expense is rent yet living with others does not enter her world. By the way, you asked "who this job is for"? People willing to share rent for starters.

People willing to make dumb decisions will face the consequences. The author tries to make it about Yelp, but it's not about Yelp, or any other company paying people "$8.15 an hour after taxes". If you want someone to take responsibility, it should be Talia Jane.

The SMART execs... others like my old out of touch rich CEO are just totally clueless about the housing market here. He was actually shocked when he learned that my rent in Oakland was 2300 a month. He goes, "woah, that's really expensive!!" and raised his eyebrows. Then he kept talking about how I was overpaying until other people at lunch verified that yeah, that is how expensive it is around here now.

Like, how much do you THINK all your employees are paying to live here dude. Not all of us inherited mansions in Tiberon from our moms. (seriously, he was living in a $6 million dollar mansion in Tiburon that his mom gifted him).
The point is that hash functions of fixed bit length b have 2^b possible values, but are used to "represent" bit sequences of length longer than b, of which there are more than 2^b values. Collisions necessarily occur, but finding colliding values isn't necessarily easy (cf. cryptographic hashes), which means if you want to tamper with a message, which has an associated hash, without being detected, you're constrained by the hash function to tamperings which produce the same hash.
