Talking to a few activists about this solution and most of them say that "building your way" out of it only makes sense if you are also building affordable housing.

I don't see a builder voluntarily building low-cost housing in the Mission district, just more luxury condos. A municipal ordinance that removes restrictions while imposing a requirement to build affordable housing along with more luxury condos might be the right solution.
There has been a × key on the normal PC keyboard since 1986, on the numeric keypad section.
To start from absolute zero, check out Suzanna Epp's Discrete Math[0]. I believe even a motivated high school student could get started with it and even finish it. If your proof-writing is shaky, the book provides a very good workout. From there it will be easy to choose the areas of discrete math to specialize.

Rumelhart was also inspired by poking at MAX-CSP, at least according to McClelland.
Fair enough, however with this audience I would expect they recognize that the manufacturing contracts of China, which by their number rather than their nationality, are expressly tailored this way. It is by virtue of the Chinese success as capturing the manufacturing contracts from all other nations in the world that has helped them develop expertise and skill.
"meant to" might not be the best term, but it's true that pigs are domesticated animals, meaning they've been selectively bred to benefit humans and to have a predisposition towards us. the same can definitely not be said about orcas
Not necessarily the migrants themselves, but to pose a thought: The "broader tech community" could become more accepting of remote work, and focus more effort on removing the blockers people see in the way of allowing more remote work within their scope.

Us migrants (myself included) can have a role in this, we can give portions of our very limited free time in trying to find solutions to the remote problem, which may lie largely in the technical space we find our strengths.

(I understand the thrust of your statement, just positing some actionable steps that even those of us most at the whims of the existing powers that be can push towards a better outcome for ourselves.)
Obama has relinquished his role in talking about "balance", when he's even now pushing for legalizing the illegal sharing of NSA's mass surveillance data with civil law enforcement. Where's the balance then? Oh, that's right. Obama is for no balance - just complete government control.
If you literally have "no idea where we can draw a line", then you're begging the question by even talking about "creatures that seem highly likely to be on the same of the line." You don't know where the line is, so you can't know where creatures stand with respect to the line.
Well, yeah. Given that you consume resources, there's really no way to just be. You need to be productive. That doesn't mean that you have to write code, just do things that have value for other people.
The idea of this vector has been around for a while.

I recall an apocryphal story about a demo of a voice-controlled OS from the 1990s. The idea was that in the middle of this demo someone shouted out a sequence of destructive commands, like

"FORMAT C!", "YES!" (I'm sure)

or

"FILE", "DELETE", "NO" (Don't save)

Really wish I could find the original source.

Yes, they've been led to believe this by the "corrupt elite" you so casually brush aside. It's better characterized as a gradient of out-of-touchness rather than a well-bounded "elite" class [0], but the net effect is the same.

You'd think so, but we actually already have such a thing, and it's not doing anything to mitigate the issue it was designed to address.

A city ordnance was passed in the late 70s, IIRC, which says that for every SRO (Single-Room Occupancy, basically, long-term flop house) in the Tenderloin that a developer wants to tear down and replace with a high-rise hotel or whatever, that developer must also put up another building with an equivalent number of SRO units to the one being torn down, somewhere else within the 7x7. So, you have to build two buildings for the price of ... well, at least two.

Now, given the current rental market in SF, I can't imagine we're actually very far from (or even already over) the inflection point where that becomes economically viable, but it's demonstrably not affecting the new construction rate in any way I've noticed...
DashFlow - A New Homepage For All Your Apps - https://dashflow.io

DashFlow is a simple cloud-based web app launcher enabling fast and one-click access to frequently used apps, websites, software, shortcuts and bookmarks.

Simply select all the popular apps you use, add any custom shortcuts, re-arrange and group the icons and set as your homepage!

With the growth of SaaS Apps and shift of software to become web-based, we want to build a better way to stay organised and productive.

A useful planned feature is the ability to automatically set the apps for all employees or users of the same domain name, saving the need for everyone to create bookmarks individually.

Note: the web-app is not ready yet but you can register for early access once we launch!
Affordable housing requirements make sense to me, I don't think they're silly, and I'm glad to see them. But they make only a marginal difference.

The default trajectory for SF is towards pricing out the working class. Rich people can afford to live in SF even with its nosebleed prices, and they will hold a systemic and intractable advantage against the working class over the long term, because, again, real estate is a good, not a moral principle. When things get more expensive, rich people get more of those things.

I'm sure there are cases where this isn't true, but as a general rule, any opposition to new housing in SF concedes ground to wealthy owners at the expense of working-class renters.

If there's a place/time this scenario has played out differently elsewhere in the US, someone, please let me know.
This is such a sophomoric approach to ethics it hardly deserves a response. Animals are not humans. They are hardly likely to have the same capacity to suffer. Anthropomorphizing them is not a credible way to talk about the issue. At best they ought to be compared to a severely mentally disabled human. Still deserving of dignity, but hardly treated as equal.
Dear god no.
It doesn't have to come from the majority--the fact that there's a lot of it is what causes the distortions. I live in Cambridge, and there's a lot of money going through the biotech sector--that money is surely as unevenly distributed as the tech money in SF, but it's a lot of money going through a small space. Sure, you can build more housing where you can squeeze it in, but as long as the money hose is going full blast, there's no way to keep up with it.

The other problem that kind of gets lost here is that we have a few places where there is a lot of money, there are jobs, housing shortages, etc., and a lot of places in the country where the opposite is true. And that's not really good. I don't think it's really sustainable to think that a few coastal cities are going to be able to accommodate everyone who would like to live and/or work in them. We could actually relieve some of the pressure on these cities by making _other cities_ more desirable destinations.
Can someone please build new SimCity. I'm missing it badly and I'll pay anything. This was the game that had a meaningful educational value (real estate development, microeconomics) coupled with entertainment. I didn't like people part (Sims) as much as city planning.
Another good one. Thanks.

Search google for webpack incompatible
I found a mention in the comment section (I believe by the author of the article), which said it didn't work all that well for them.
It happens all the time because most UMD implementations are broken and make incorrect assumptions, so you often have to follow the "Fix broken modules" steps on https://webpack.github.io/docs/shimming-modules.html

And if your package depends on a broken module, you're essentially SoL unless you make assumptions about the path NPM will install stuff and configure webpack to fix -that- one.

That's more a problem with the state of broken UMD modules than Webpack itself though, but I've considered configuring webpack to ignore all AMD syntax quite a few times...
Parallel concurrency is the Great White Whale of our time. Languages like Python and Ruby give you a toothpick to hunt with. Java gives you a letter opener. Go gives you a decent bowie knife. Clojure gives you something like a proper harpoon. But something eventually has to come along at some point to make it possible to not have to take down Moby Dick in the first place. I don't know what that is but I'd love to see it.
I think you just need to build more of everything. They're building luxury condos because there is demand for them. So let them have their fun building luxury condos (which are likely higher profit) but at the same time let them also build affordable housing, which they can also make a profit off of.
No, they actually issued gold and silver currency, which was called "money" and was used directly as a medium of exchange. Money wasn't just exchangeable for gold, it was gold (and silver).

The widespread use of paper money is actually quite a recent innovation, compared to the millennia of history for gold and silver coinage. People didn't trust paper for a long time (and still don't, when times get troubled).

The Constitution of the United States (quite a recent document, historically speaking) invariably refers to "coining" money, not printing it.

Can someone explain how the encryption works on the iPhone? I was under the impression that the 4 digit code is just a screen lock and had nothing to do with the encryption.

Also is there a reason they can't just use this piece of hardware to brute force the phone?

Yeah, thanks for providing the grade school definition. It really adds to the conversation.
I find your reference to "concentration camps" in relation to livestock finishing feedlots and slaughterhouses to be tremendously inappropriate. Please find another way to shock and horrify readers into treating food animals more humanely.

It might not have been your intent, but you are reducing the victims of actual concentration camps to the status of food animals.
They make some claims about the limitations of other search engines that doesn't seem true. Heck recently there was an article that says that google feeds a lot of signals(and we don't exctly know which), into a large machine learning algorithm, which they even don't know how it works.

So algolia knows how it all works ? yeh, right.
Entertainingly, Alexa supports purchasing music, so one could release a song on Amazon music with audio that triggers Alexa to buy it.
Surely someone's going to figure out a way to "talk" to Alexa in a pitch that it can hear but humans cannot?

But even if humans can hear the fraudulent commands, what's the defense beyond a confirmation?
That's an amazingly good idea imo.

People need to stop trying to force themselves using Go. Yes, good concurrency perks and easy deployment are handy, but Go basically demands people to code 1993 C-Object style since its authors basically rejected 20+ years of type theory. If it feels dirty don't promote that, don't promote a community that is in total denial when it comes to its language shortcomings.

Plenty of alternatives like D,Nim,Vala,Crystal,Erlang and many more. You want the same developer experience as Go (go get,gofmt,golint,go-code...)? then develop the tools for these languages and drop Go. Don't settle for an half baked language just because "it's easy to start with",it's easy to start with because the standard library is dumbed-down. Just look at Go projects on Github where developers spend their time trying to fix the Go std lib in their own code...
I should have rephrased it to include only people who enjoy raising children. For those people, it's OK not to be maximally productive. It's ok to not want to outsource raising a child by strangers.
Yeah the line of thinking seems to be that everything else is broken, not webpack. And the module maintainers say "well it works with everything else except Webpack so webpack is broken, they should fix it." Seriously crap situation.
[citation needed] I'm looking at my 1992 Model M right now and it has just a "*", unless you count "+" as a lopsided "×".
Would you explain how 256-bit AES keys CPU and Secure Enclave and user PIN all work together to provide encryption on the iPhone? Is this documented anywhere?

Interstate already tracks non-tagged data in the same way GA does.

The GA Model Comparison Tool is great for the basics but I'd hardly call it a comprehensive attribution solution for static models. Even if you import spend data (which you have to do manually), you can't get any sort of understanding of what payback periods actually were, just present day ROAS and how it differs by model. You also can't see revenue, spend, and # of attributed conversion in the same report, filtering is a pain, etc etc. It does the basics but not much else.
Hmm, doesn't seem to load for me in Google Chrome. Just hangs for a long time.
Go runtime is not independently available. This is first time I heard that people are more interested in Go runtime than Go language. It is likely many people care about language being interesting but, where I work, most debate / arguments are about product features not language features. We have been using Java quite productively for long time and do not see any need to change.

> Just like no sane person would start a new SaSS using Java when they could choose other languages to run on the JVM that are much better..

I think Scala is 12 yr old and fair to say it has not taken software industry by storm e.g like Swift. It has maybe few per cent point market share of all JVM languages. And the superiority of their language that Scala developers claim all the time may ensure that Scala will not get any more popular than it currently is. In my interaction with Scala developers are they are more interested in talking how cool is Scala rather than what cool software they have developed with it.

Hacker Reveals How to Hack Any Facebook Account
I agree with 90% of this. React, Redux, ESLint with airbnb config, npm, webpack, lodash, ramda, fetch, css modules...absolutely.

I disagree with the breezy assertion that types don't matter, and the offhand dismisal of TypeScript. And saying that "TypeScript tries too hard to make JavaScript like C# or Java" reveals, in my view, a fundamental failure to understand what TypeScript does.

I also think the author is a bit too strongly in favour of `mocha`; I don't think `ava` should have been some easily dismissed, and I've recently run across a pretty nice framework called `painless`. And even if you do use `mocha`, I find `expect` to be a better assertion library than `chai`. I think a better answer here might be "use whatever works for you, so long as its not Jest". (The shoutout to `enzyme` was on point though; great library if you need to test React components.)
Shutting things down early prevents a drain on company resources and preventing future layoffs. . . hopefully
Thanks for posting your thoughts. I was leaning towards TypeScript myself (as opposed to ES6) for an Angular project that will be migrated to version 2.0. Angular 2 was actually written in TypeScript if I am not mistaken, and it's one of the three say, "supported" ways of writing A2 apps (along with ES5 and Dart).
If people are still writing it by hand each time, it's a problem with tooling, specifically dependency management. If it's that much of a pain to distribute a library, then people are going to write it themselves.

That's not a reason not to include generics, however. It's an entirely different problem.
The Sound of Silence: Jean Sibelius and the symphony that never was
I thought one of the lessons of Hanford groundwater cleanup was that it's an impossible task, at least with current methods---the returns of processing the water over and over diminish to nothing long before the task is done. (Sorry I have no source on this.)
I've been using golang for the past 3 years almost exclusively for very high traffic applications. I still maintain applications I wrote in the past in different languages, but any new application uses go on the backend if I get the final say on it.

People have been complaining about generics ever since I've began following golang, and people say that it'll never stick around and never find it's following in enterprise, but every month I see another large company launching a product written in go, or rewriting an existing product using go which saved them time and hardware resources or get job offers from recruiters specifically looking for golang devs.

Don't be afraid that you've drank the kool aid too early, I've been banking my career on it and the longevity of it and have had no regrets.
That's an insightful parallel. Does this mean trains are functional?
The problem with React is its patent rider. React.js comes with a BSD license, but has a patent rider that gives you a license to React's patents. This sounds like a good thing, right? But this rider has a "strong retaliation clause" which says that if you make any sort of patent claim against Facebook this patent license automatically terminates. Which means Facebook can now sue you for patent infringement for using React. You may think this is no worse than not having a patent rider at all. But that's not the case. If there is no patent rider then there is an implicit grant which cannot be revoked.

If you work for a software company and your company has patents then keep in mind that by using React you are giving Facebook a free license to your entire patent portfolio.

Video compression algorithms already optimize for perception rather than objective measures like PSNR, so I still don't see the fundamental difference.

Yeah, that is pretty much the only solution.

The other real option is going the NYC route of subsidized housing. However, I'm not sure SF really has the revenues for this to be viable tho.

Yes they do. I wasn't happy with any alternative, I wanted a service that:

- Works with modern sites (angular, etc)

- Records every visit (most are extremely expensive per recording)

- does not work with Angular (http://docs.hotjar.com/docs/does-hotjar-support-ajax--single...)

- is limited to 2,000 recordings per month

Those in-market cloud providers are very secretive about their solutions. But due to the fact they are running and expanding a business that is comparable and bigger than Facbook in size, there is no reason to believe they don't have something highly tailored to their own causes.
Yahoo Games was one of the best. I used to play games there when I was in elementary school (I am the 90s kid).

What happened to the simple pool game graphic? Chess game?

What else? Those Flash games out there!

Don't let your experience with Apache Groovy put you off upgrading to a new JVM language. I learnt Clojure after using Groovy for a few years -- Groovy 1.8 was the last version I used. I then looked at Haskell, and now I'm using Go.
It's not a modern Java, it's an antiquated Java. It might aim to be modern, but Go is far from being a modern programming language, even if it was implemented in modern times.
Swift isn't a fair comparison at all because it's a mandated language by Apple. For me Scala is just an improvement on Java. It's valuable to people who fetishize complexity, IOW, people who use Java and like it.
