Hangouts is great for video if you don't need things like readable smaller text on presentations or detail in design reviews when casting your screen. Our designers hate it and our customers are always asking things like "what's that button say? I can't read it". We used to use BlueJeans which had much better video quality, but the in-room systems were an order of magnitude more expensive than chromebox for meetings.

Different purpose. Everything rocks at finding files and is complementary to Keypirinha, which rocks at adapting to your needs. As explained in an other comment, Keypirinha is way more than about launching apps and documents.
We could, but we got clever adopted the ideas of CLU, Ada, Eiffel and ML and stop doing that in the early 2000's.

Go generate, for example, brings me back memories of a time C++ compilers used pre-processor magic for generic programming, around 1994 or so.

Something like

#define Type1 my nice type1 definition
#include <generic-list.h>

#undef Type1
#define Type1 my nice type2 definition
#include <generic-list.h>

ListType1 ...
ListType2 ...

I find the people that like lots of strictness and rules are usually managers or high level non-coding engineers. Usually these people are trying to limit development rate to something they can have control over. Usually by complaining about whitespace.

I doubt I could ever work in a place where I cannot unilaterally deploy code whenever I want. If I can't it's usually because someone is trying to be top dog by limiting access to the codebase in some way. Usually it's someone in a management or pseudo-management role. In those cases where I can't just ignore them, I can always quit and work on my own projects to restore 'engineering primacy.'
You could make a good amount of money if you focus on the few and relatively easy enterprise features of retention policies, sso & message export. Many large corps are sticking with hip chat but hating it because it's the only thing that kind of works.

Scala seems to do all these. Unfortunately it also has a bit of a messy OO system that can make inference more painful than the aforementioned options, but life's about trade offs I suppose...
Never/zero thinking
But i think the point is that you have to outsource it. There is no space for you "outsourcing the outsourcing" to publishers, because there is not enough fat in the market for them to survive anymore (or so they say). Authors will increasingly have to take charge of managing their creations, like it happened with musicians.
Wox offers more exotic features, but to be fair is also way less efficient when it comes to search accuracy, speed, memory footprint and battery friendliness.

On the contrary, I think OCaml's class system is potentially very confusing to someone coming from mainstream object-oriented languages.

Java programmers would be confused the most, because they would have to unlearn the most. In Java, a class is a type on its own right. An object of class (and, hence, type) `Foo` has a very specific data structure, even if this data structure is unknown to the user. On the other hand, in OCaml, a class is just a constructor for objects of a particular structural type. Two objects with the same structural type can have completely different underlying data structures. Making things even more confusing, inheritance doesn't entail subtyping - a class `foo` can inherit from a class `bar`, without `foo`'s type being a subtype of `bar`'s type. This happens if `bar`'s type contains negative occurences of its self-type. As a result, few intuitions about Java's class system carry over to OCaml.

Python programmers would be somewhat less surprised, but if their idea of a typed object-oriented language is “something that looks like Java”, they could encounter all the difficulties mentioned in the preceding paragraph. On the other hand, if they have no experience at all with typed languages, OCaml's class system can still be a source of pain, in that inferred object types can be utterly incomprehensible for someone not familiar with how the type checker works. By contrast, the inferred type signatures for the non-object-oriented subset of OCaml are usually very tame.

Sorry, e_d_g_a_r, I can't reply to you directly, because the website says I'm “submitting too fast”, but here is an example: http://pastebin.com/yUmNnFD5 . By the way, this isn't a bug in OCaml's type checker - it's the way it's supposed to work.
Yeah, that might be the best option.

Right now we use Lync/Skype for communication, which I loathe almost as much as Lotus Notes. This sentiment is shared by many. Slack usage has organically grown (as a reaction to the failings of Lync) and I can envision Slack displacing Lync in many companies.

I've played with Ur/Web before, and I'm very impressed with its type system, but unfortunately I don't have much use for it, because, as you mentioned, it can only be used to make Web applications, which I don't find terribly interesting. I even remember telling Adam Chlipala on Freenode at some point in time, that it would be very nice if Ur could be used for more general-purpose programming.

I think this aspect makes Angular feel more like the "Java EE" of the web world. You can throw an Angular developer at an existing Angular code base and I'm fairly certain he'll know exactly what goes where and how things are strung together without much digging around or documentation required. For enterprises this is a very good thing.

One way or another your bank has an IBAN you can use, but if it's a smaller bank, they may go through one of the larger ones. You just need to find the right person to talk to at the bank.
So, this is true, and after acknowledging this. I find it very hard to buy into the stuff about the 1%, because to the rest of the world I am (and my kids are) the 1%.

However, having said that, I do notice the "shut up, you're doing better than before" argument is only ever used on those at the bottom of the heap asking for more equality. No one ever seems to use it to respond to people complaining about progressive tax rates on the wealthy for example, despite it being even more true for them.

Blame the victim, right? The article doesn't say she has not told him never to contact her again, so I don't know why you assume that. And regardless, she's not bad at communcation. If someone blocks you and stops responding for years, it can't reasonably be interpreted as an invitation for more contact.

You also insinuate that they had a sexual relationship, which I think it's pretty clear they didn't.

I would be very curious to see if Gian Carlo Rota had anything to say about Stephen Strogatz's view on this. Strogatz's text (which was written three years before this article, right before he left MIT), is much beloved by many scientists and engineers, but most mathematician's will have complaints about it.
You are right. Sorry, for violating the etiquette. I tried to convince the lead engineer to post it but since he failed / forgot to do so I did this on his behalf.

Depressed people lack desire. They often barely eat and prefer to sleep as much as possible, but that varies. In some cases they don't derive significant pleasure from anything.

Happy people get excited. They have appetite. If they can afford it, they'll buy a boat so they can bring their happy friends out and have a good time.

Except for monks and nuns, nobody really has everything they want. Well, you could see some depressed people as having everything they want—if they lost the ability to want.

This article (written in backlash to some recent high profile claims of conflicts caused by climate change) suggests that blaming climate for human conflicts is nothing new:

It’s that they promote a kind of climate reductionism, one
that carries echoes of the deterministic theories that were
once popular during the second half of the 19th century.

Consider, for instance, John William Draper’s History of
the American Civil War, published in 1867. Draper, who
served as president of the medical college of New York
University from 1850 to 1873, was a professor of chemistry
and an architect of the so-called “conflict model” of
science and religion, bringing a scientist’s eye to his
task. On the very first page of his book, he announced “the
great truth that societies advance in a preordained and
inevitable course” guided by “uncontrollable causes.” Chief
among these was the climate.

Can you provide an example of " This happens if `bar`'s type contains negative occurences of its self-type"
I work at Uber. We've discovered that in terms of average response time, our node services have remarkable performance. For example, some of our fastest node services have 1-5ms p95 response time. When you start diving into the p99 latency, garbage collection pauses can spike response time to tens or hundreds of ms, and eliminating these spikes is incredibly nontrivial.
10% slower, which isn't too bad, let's hope they can now focus on improving compilation speed, I miss go 1.4 having recently upgraded. It would be really nice to see that actually improve for 1.7 instead of regressing.

This should not have been down-voted.

Although he may spin it a little further than it is worth, in fact before all the latest events of the last several years started, the Middle East was the area determined to be most at risk of a "major war" specifically because of issues with international water rights, water amounts & the worsening effect climate change was having on it.

It was boring think-tank material, not the stuff you read in the paper every day, but it was a top concern among people who considered long-term policy.
Where would they even use generics? All their algorithm requires is arrays of polygons, and a function to check if a polygon contains a point.
A while back, I heard about a scam where individuals were targeted by someone at one of the mobile phone providers. They logged in with their bank details, rerouted the authentication messages to their phone, and proceeded to do as they pleased. The "victim" had no idea it was happening as all the auth and notification SMS's being sent to their mobile number were being routed to someone else entirely.

I've been a long time and happy user of Launchy. It's a great tool and you might have noticed the small tribute to it in Keypirinha by using the term "Catalog" to name its internal database :)

Keypirinha is more modern than Launchy in many ways and integrates better in recent Windows platforms (for example I've had troubles due to 64-bit platforms with Launchy; items not found or not launchable, ...). The search accuracy is very much improved as well. You can have machine and/or user-specific configuration in a portable way. In addition to that, Keypirinha is more easily extensible, it embeds a Python interpreter to load its plugins (whereas you had to compile a C++ plugin to do the same job with Launchy; I wasn't happy with the unofficial Launchy-Python plugin). That gives the user the power to modify the existing official plugins (they are open-source), or to create new plugins that fit her needs (that slowly leads us towards your "searching scope" question).

Keypirinha is also very young compared to venerable Launchy so its plugins catalog has yet to be "flourished".

Hope that answers your question regarding Keypirinha vs. Launchy.

Regarding the "searching scope" question, please follow the discussion on GitHub at:
https://github.com/Keypirinha/Keypirinha/issues/3
If you want a dense, readable, maintainable code - you're out of options, you have to resort to the preprocessor.

Any kind of repeating lists (enum + a switch over all the values, for example) are best handled by define-include-undefine sequences.

See how it is done in LLVM, see all the .def files there. I cannot think of a single viable alternative to this method.

And it is far from a "code generation", just merely listing things in a consistent manner.

The problem is that the problem you think the interviewee hasn't seen is derived from common problems the interviewee has seen. 99% of the time, if the interviewee has a background in programming competitions then they will sound very intelligent, and the further they move from that background the worse they'll do. You're selecting for familiarity, not creativity.
One thing I learned in this article is that it's someone's job to call the victims of stalkers, apologize on their behalf, and ask to be notified if the behavior continues. It makes me wonder what process is initiated if they inform the lawyer that "Danny" has resumed harassing them. Will the lawyer call "Danny" and tell his client to shut up? Will he be billed for that time? Is the idea that, given a sufficiently expensive lawyer, he won't be able to afford his stalking habit?

It is interesting that they appear to have published this under their real name. No doubt "Danny" has read it with interest.

So I hope you realize the error of your statement. Nowhere did South Africa "gas" their ghetto's, nor did Switzerland help. Research was done on nerve agents, and crowd control measures (two separate research goals) and a number of other substances, which almost all countries did similar military research. Furthermore there is allegations of birth control research but this the evidence is flimsy, controversial and nowhere is it alleged that it went any further than research.

So good sir, you are absolutely mistaken.
AI and the Future of Civilization
certainly don't disagree. An acquaintance of mine has trying to get him work on Cryptocurrencies where Merkle trees are all around. he showed some interest and was very open to new ideas. he has a nice website http://www.merkle.com/

http://www.merkle.com/1974/RejectionLetter.pdf

"I had failed to provide any references to the prior work on public key cryptography, and the reasons previous workers in the field had rejected it as impossible. I should have looked up "public key cryptography" on Google before submitting my paper. My defense is feeble: there was no Google, the term "public key cryptography" did not yet exist, and there were no previous workers in the field. There were no words for what I had done, and looking up a concept to show that no one had previously thought of it is difficult. This is not a unique problem: it illustrates a problem faced by anyone trying to explain a new idea to an "expert" who expects a properly referenced article anytime anyone tries to explain something to them. The more a new idea is unrelated to any prior idea or concept the more it must appear as a squawling bastard, naked and alone, appearing de novo and lacking any respectable pedigree or family to vouch for its acceptability."

Oh hey, someone better-informed than me.

There's also a sizeable fraction of the reading public of all ages who still prefer print books for a host of reasons both sentimental and practical. (The one I've just discovered: I can't read ebooks before bed because the blue light from the iPad screen keeps me up. Whoops.)

Ebooks have mostly killed the mass-market paperback, though---more's the pity for beach-reading and other circumstances where I don't want to have to worry about the physical condition of sensitive electronics.

It's an HTML5 video, so you can adjust the speed with JS if you can get the right element. e.g. to set the playback speed to 120%, you can do:

in the JS console.
