Texas is as Texas does.

Don't get me wrong, Austin is probably the best city in Texas, but it's still in Texas.

Honestly, I think only New York and Los Angeles really qualify as "global" cities in the US. Chicago, San Francisco, Boston, and DC would be a step below that, and then it gets harder to define - Seattle, Minneapolis, Austin, Atlanta, Charlotte, and a number of other cities could be considered a third tier, depending on the criteria you use (major companies based there, cultural attractions, etc.) But again, that gets much more subjective.

Why not build up? You don't have to even go too high. Just take existing housing or strip malls and add a floor. So many strip malls in the valley and peninsula that could be repurposed to have a dual purpose shops and condos/apts on top. Just one or two floors added would mean tens of thousands of new housing units.

Go is as great for concurrency as Node.js: it forces one particular type of concurrent programming on the programmer, which IMHO does not qualify as "great".

Many languages give the programmer a range of options when it comes to concurrency, including the options Go and Node.js offer. Some languages even allow these options to be implemented as libraries (so they do not have to be built-into the language; though can become part of the standard lib).

If they are making that there is no way it's just for teaching. I assume they have some administrative/leadership work involved. And probably a few degrees as well.

I love them both honestly but given the static typing in Golang I feel that I move much faster writing web services in Node.js and that is where the bulk of my time is spent.

It's actually not that much. Current consumer desktop hard drives top out at 8T (you can get enterprise RAID boxes of up to 48T now, but leave them out of the equation). 1P/day ~= 128 hard drives, so at 4min/drive, that's one person.

Of course, that's just YouTube, and Google has many other needs for data. But people forget just how big the denominators are on this quantity, and how effective Kryder's Law has been. They also forget how much reserve capacity there is in human labor; Google's datacenters have tiny employee counts because they are so automated, and could easily scale up into the exabyte/day range.

A more interesting question is what the differential rates of Kryder's Law vs. Moore's Law will do to how we architect software. Already, people in the know say that "disk is the new tape" - disk drive capacity has been increasing much faster than seek times, bus bandwidth, and available processing power, which means that you have to start treating the drive as a sequential storage device and not as a random-access platter. That's behind a lot of the shift from B-trees (as in conventional RDBMSes) to LSM-trees (as in BigTable/LevelDB), and also the resurgence of batch-processing frameworks like MapReduce. How does the software you build change when reading & writing data sequentially is really cheap, but accessing it randomly is expensive?
The current thought is that IoT devices should only be clients, mainly for security reasons. If your fridge needs to talk to your TV, both should be clients with a secure connection to a, often cloud based, server.

(In the wild, things are less well though through...)
That is essentially the pitch.

The CloudFlare Registrar would auto-renew your domain a year in advance, aggressively lock it and prevent transfer, and allow you to require multiple people in your organisation to approve significant changes.

Any registrar that is selling you a domain for $10 per year is making such razor thin margins that they cannot do more than the minimum and rarely enforce doing that with diligence.

I was rather pleased that one of my domains ultimately is managed by an arcane human process involving actually dealing with a bureaucracy... this slows everything down so much that it's hard to achieve anything at all. It was entirely accidental, the domain has a .sm TLD and that municipality is tiny.

What CloudFlare are effectively doing is using a highly bureaucratic and formal process to ensure the domains are safe and secure, to mitigate the risks involved. That your organisation can shape the policy you want is also a benefit, you can ensure only the real decision makers get to authorise changes.
It's only Wabash, Wells, Lake and Van Buren in the downtown core, so you can always head one block over. Of course, depending on the time of day it'll still seem dark due to the size of the buildings.

The noise is the major issue with the L. And they certainly could do something about that, but honestly, the city has more important issues they should be spending money on (the schools are getting completely screwed over, and a couple of high crime areas need real solutions).
Like everything in life, it is a matter of supply and demand.

At the height of the Iraq war, there was a suddenly increased demand for the services of private military contractors relative to their supply.

Now, the demand is reduced and the market rate for private military contractor services is much less expensive.

Vancouver (my city) is always rated as less affordable than every other Canadian or American city (except maybe NYC). And yet somehow I am a homeowner (mortgage-holding, not outright) in the city of Vancouver proper (not in a cheap suburb), which I purchased when I was making the most I'd ever made in my life, $50k/a (Vancouver junior dev salary around 2010).

What can we conclude from this? The only conclusion I can reach is that most people who complain about not being able to afford real estate are merely people with unrealistic expectations about what type of home they "need". I just can't make heads or tails of it otherwise.

Note: sure, some people really are locked out. If you're a 22yo single parent with no marketable skills and having to work 60 hours a week to feed your kids and etc-etc-etc, you're authorized by me to complain about your real estate woes.

It's the biggest fallacy in armchair transit planning: Misunderstanding what induced demand means. If the system is at capacity everywhere, but you build to the point where a modality(any modality) is no longer congested, new demand will shift towards that modality. Thus, you can have a city where all the trains are packed, or one where it's the highways. Presumably, if you invested enough in them, bikes and buses could go the same way.

But what you can't do is create an "all-around" city where every transit option has equally low congestion. People will show a preference for whichever mode they got used to, and fill the others only as they hit their tolerance limits - not because one is faster, or cheaper, unless it's substantially so(and then congestion will arise to even the odds). This typically manifests today in a city crowding the highways but leaving the buses empty. New construction will mostly be used by newcomers unless there is some disincentive to drive, like downtown congestion charges, reduction of parking, smaller roads, etc.

The bus lane capacity thought experiment equates velocity to throughput. This is obviously wrong; while a bus interferes with some traffic, it also pulls more people into less space. Multiply that along the whole route, at high frequency, and you end up with geometric efficiency. A bus may go at a third of the speed, but it carries easily 10x as much as a four-seater, and bigger buses could hold even more. At the peak hours, congestion and slow speeds are assumed and vehicle capacity starts to matter for delivering the most commuters home in a timely fashion.

Then consider the network benefits of running more routes and connections at higher frequencies. Public transit has to hit a certain critical mass of densities and destinations before it really takes off; most of the US today, being heavily suburbanized in the mid-century fashion, does not enjoy this. But the New York City region got there, and several other metros are showing signs of moving in this direction. Access to transit is implicitly improving now that we're in the era of electric rideable vehicles and people making their first/last-mile connection can go at 10-15 MPH on whatever weird gadget they want without breaking a sweat or having to find lockup space. Capacity becomes a complicated equation with all these factors.

There are a lot of things that I cannot grasp, that are still true.

I know of one Big Five tech company where the lowest pay bracket for permanent-position software engineers is $110k USD base salary, plus substantial annual bonus and liquid stock (roughly $150k total comp, plus perks). Interns get less base and no bonus/stock, I think.

If we assume that all of the Big Five are within 20% of that, and if we also assume that every startup wants to hire "only the best" (or, more realistically, every startup wants to credibly lie to themselves that they do so), what do you figure they need to pay to get anybody taking their jobs seriously?

Most people don't write wills. Their assets shouldn't be lost forever as a result. That would be terrible.

It would be better to opt-in to auto-destruct-when-i-die, not opt-out. It's more of a special case. E.g. create encrypted notes for super secret stuff you want to die with you, but let the default security for photos and documents be "private but recoverable in the event of death or forgotten key."

Not to mention, writing that password down in a will would be pretty bad from a security standpoint while you're alive.

Adding random noise doesn't help a lot, because it's random. Mean 0. This technique relies on changing each pixel in just the right direction to affect its output. Random noise pushes half the pixels back to the original direction and the other half even further in the wrong direction.

It's unclear if viewing the image at different scales or from different angles would help. Likely it would. However NNs are designed and trained to be as invariant to deformation as possible.

A more interesting domain is audio. Audio doesn't have any concept of different rotation or scale. It's guaranteed each bit will be input in the correct order. Its also a recurrent system, which is vulnerable to falling into states of chaotic behavior.

So if humans are vulnerable to these things, it will likely be in the form of audio.

As a non-US citizen you should definitely move to another TLD entirely. US asserts jurisdiction over .com/.net/.org and has been known to seize such domains at will even if they have no ties to the US. You would have little recourse without great difficulty.

As a non-US person myself I will therefore personally never hold such a domain.

National TLD's would be a good choice but there's also .eu which I reckon would also be a safe choice. They also do not publish WHOIS information for privately held domains.

People rarely consider this when purchasing domains (which jurisdiction they fall under) but it's an important issue in my opinion.
