I keep wanting to like PowerShell but finding it limited in silly ways. Text output is crippled, and there's no sensible way to save the intermediate value of a pipeline in a file.

The security ceremony required around PS is also an obstacle to getting started. And of course Microsoft have missed the opportunity to fix the path separator.

I admit that Bourne shell is not great for anything over a few lines, and find it better to drop into perl or python where filename-separator issues are mostly eliminated.
Not absurd to contend they would steal or bribe. FBI's use of sneak-and-peek black bag operations is well-documented and has been going on for a very long time. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_bag_operation#Use_by_the...) In the book "The Puzzle Palace", there is a section documenting how the NSA pushed to get the FBI to reinstate blag bag ops after Hoover stopped them, so that they could recover cryptographic information to aid or obviate cryptanalysis.

I leave judgement of the ethics of the practice and integrity of the organization as an exercise to the reader.
Well there is CommonJS, and AMD modules. Many modules implement that in JS.
My secret to making steady money as a freelance designer
Ahh, that's interesting. I remember Coke (KO) bought out the US distribution/bottling from Coca Cola Enterprises (CCE) in 2010 but Wikipedia says 5-10% of US Coke is still bottled by a handful of independent bottlers.

Allegedly, Kosher For Passover Coke (which should be available soon if not already) uses sugar.

Here's some general idea about how people spend their money, not that you couldn't figure this out on your own.

Houses: 100k-1mm

Cars: 15-80k (each)

Vacations/Travel: 2-10k/year

Expensive Clothing: $3-5k/year

Jewelry: $0-5k/year

Hobbies: $1-20k/year

Entertainment/Dining/Drinks: $1-20k/year

Retirement & Other Investments: $0 - 50k/year

Repeat some of that stuff for their children, add college expenses, maybe private school.

Those are just some examples that I largely based off of my sister. She is constantly expanding/improving her home (bathroom remodel and new pool in the past 18 months), she loves big expensive jewelry, she has designer purses and clothing, they have 4 cars which all have TVs and other fancy options in them, they have a class A RV, her husband builds cars & races at the track, they have young boys and everyone has a dirtbike, boys have modern toys/video games/etc.

You might think "wow, that's ridiculous," but really they're just spending to their level of income. It's pretty common.

You, on the other hand, seem to be more like me. Of my salary I'm required to spend 8.2% on my mortgage, so I don't default. I've started a homestead that I've been buying a lot of tools and equipment for. My utilities come out to another ~1.5% of my salary. Everything else is savings, and/or thrown on to the mortgage. I'm going to pay my mortgage off fully in ~18-24 months (total time). I have no other debts and after that I can save 100% of my salary. I'd like to maybe build a new home on this homestead someday, but I'm not going to go into debt to build it. In the meantime, the salary affords me the luxury of no financial concerns and the ability to help others when they need it.

If I had no debts or ambitions to own property, and I didn't mind living in a small single bedroom apartment like your example, I would spend the $700/month on my living expenses and save the rest. I'd probably dip into savings to visit another country each year. I'd retire early.

In the end, that's your real answer. Savings & retirement funds. You just haven't thought that far ahead because you're very young.

You guys do some of the most interesting blog postings.

I work a block from your office in SF; may I make a request: can you guys host a public tech-talk so I can come to your office and hear it straight from your engineers and maybe have the opportunity to ask questions.

Your Writeup about the HFT NICs from solar(something) circa ~2012 has had me hooked on cloudflares opinion on pretty much everything.

Buddha about Language Wars:

Then the Buddha gave advice of extreme importance to the group of
Brahmins: 'It is not proper for a wise man who maintains (lit. protects) truth to come
to the conclusion: "This alone is Truth, and everything else is false'.' Asked by the
young Brahmin to explain the idea of maintaining or protecting truth, the Buddha
said: ' A man has a faith. If he says, "This is my faith", so far he maintains truth. But by
9
that he cannot proceed to the absolute conclusion: "This alone is Truth, and
everything else is false". In other words, a man may believe what he likes, and he
may say 'I believe this'. So far he respects truth. But because of his belief or faith, he
should not say that what he believes is alone the Truth, and everything else is false.

(from "What the Buddha taught, a really great book!)
Whatever, it's human nature to want to know your loved ones are OK. If my wife and kids were in the area of an attack, of course I would want to know that they were all right, even if I rationally understood the chances were high that they were fine. In fact, parents just want to make sure their children are alright even if they're in a different country from a disaster, because tragedy reminds us of how fragile life is and makes us want to reach out to the people we love. If you want a tangible benefit, this reduces the load on cell phone lines that used to get totally jammed after a disaster.
I grew up in Florida and Mexico, so i'm aware that too much of the same thing gets old - which is why I spend up to a week on a beach at a time, and work the rest of the time in a big city. The dichotomy is blissful.

But even the idea that it can get old is very dependent on the person - some people's life goals are to surf, eat ceviche, and drink cerveza while fishing with friends. They may not get sick of it, while you or I might. Their work/life balance might be giving diving lessons in the spring in Trinidad and working a WWOOF off-season, interspersed with consulting work (a friend of mine). The dude in the article likes beaches and tropical drinks. As long as they can identify how to achieve a healthy balance, doesn't matter what it is.
Does that actually have any effect? I recall reading that google doesn't really pay attention much to URL's (or meta keywords for that matter).

As I've read through the thread, I see that there are efforts to make the boom quieter. Physics won't allow it to ever go away completely, but the hope is that it might be taken down to an acceptable level so that the laws banning overland supersonic flight could be retired. Laws don't change easily though, especially when there are entrenched airlines who would not welcome any new competition - they'll be lobbying against it for sure. I wouldn't be in line for a ticket just yet.
5 ways we solve web development outsourcing communication problems
It's self reported data in general, not specific to this case:

http://www.sciencebrainwaves.com/the-dangers-of-self-report/
Android has had an API for getting pressure of a click since API level 5, which shipped with Android 2.0 "Eclair" in 2009 - https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/MotionE...

Several apps came out within days of the Apple 3D Touch announcement, such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.casual_dev..., that were installable and worked on existing Android phones. Since it was basically evidence of another Apple copy-paste, this information was basically ignored by iGizmodo / iVerge / etc, so many people think that Apple "invented" pressure-sensitive touch events, despite getting them a full 5 years after Android.

I believe that the reason that pressure sensitive apps were met with a "meh" on Android is because long-click works great and people understand it. Click to do a thing, long-click to get a context menu on a thing. It works everywhere, even on many Apple-developed iOS apps that haven't been "upgraded" to 3D Touch yet.
Some people even managed to figure it out before the patches; doesn't mean we should expedite the release of exploits. Its gonna take more than a day for everyone to get patched.

I agree, the headline is a big exaggeration. Not having all the features of f.lux does not constitute a "bust".

As someone who's switched from Ruby to Python (for now, because the latter is far easier to teach, IMO) and also put significant time into learning R, because of how strong ggplot2 is...I was really surprised at the lack of Google results for "switching from python to r" -- or similarly phrased queries to find guides on how to go from Python to R...in fact, that particular query will bring up more results for R -> Python than the other way around (e.g. "Python Displacing R as The Programming Language For Data")...Talk of R is so ubiquitous in academia (and in the wild, ggplot2 tends to wow nearly on the same level as D3) that I had just assumed there was a fair number of developers who have tried jumping into R...but there aren't...I think minimaxir's guides are the most and only comprehensive how-to-do-R-as-written-by-an-outsider things I've seen on the web [1]. But by and far the common scenario is that of the author's: "Well, I guess it’s no big secret that I was an R person once"

That said, one of the things I've appreciated about R is how it "just works"...I usually go through Homebrew, but RStudio works just as well. I can see why that's a huge appeal for both beginners and people who want to do computation but not necessarily become developers.

Also, I used to hate how `<-` was used for assignment...but now, that's one of the things I miss most about using R...I've grown up with single-equals-sign assignment in every other language I've learned, but after having to teach some programming...the difference between `==` and `=` is a common and often hugely stumping error for beginners. Not only that, they have trouble remembering how assignment even works, even for basic variable assignment...I've come to realize that I've programmed so long that I immediately recognize the pattern, but that can't possibly be the case for novices, who if they've taken general math classes, have never seen the equals sign that way. The `<-` operator makes a lot more sense...though I would've never thought that if hadn't read Hadley Wickham's style guide [2]

We've come a lot farther than you may realize. We've come far enough that, having removed a lot of the accidental complexities of importing external modules, we've discovered collectively than the essential complexity is non-zero. Bringing a module into your project is non-trivially expensive. Bringing multiple modules into your project grows in expense super-linearly. (Not "exponentially", but definitely something greater than linearly.)

There probably isn't a nirvana just waiting for That One Great Tool. Or, alternatively, if there is, it probably involves having to switch to something like a dependently-typed system or the very bleeding edge of where the Haskell community is right now, which is probably still not really quite where it needs to be yet for this. And that would still involve a lot of cost for that switch.

Oh, and this is one of those places where I perhaps may be justified in pointing out again that for all the sound and fury in software development, in reality our field does not move that quickly. There's a ton of package managers out there, but broadly speaking, they're the same set of features shuffled into various combinations. Nothing wrong with that, per se. Just a lot less innovation than may initially meet the eye.
USS Pedantry, just for that extra blow.
>>Is that not innovation?

Yes but not at the same level of complexity. The processor, electronics, battery technology and manufacturing processes require multi-decade spanning consistent efforts, iterations and investments to make it happen.

Once the difficult part is done. What remains now is building a end user product. Which has its own complexities. But once the hard part is done, the other parts are relatively easy.
Was thinking the same thing. I've had both DK1 and DK2 of the Oculus headsets and have followed VR from the start to the now and there have been SO much happening with hardware and software that it's hard to grasp!

There is so much hardware for body tracking, environment tracking and soon Magic Leap that Apple really will be irrelevant when or if they enter the market.

I mean, just consider the patents involved here - it will be hell for them to enter!
>> I am interested in possibly switching at some point if it's worthwhile

> If you aren't using it now, and thus don't know how fast or slow it would be on your data and queries, why would you care about percentage speed ups?

I'm working under the assumption that similar operations between PostgreSQL and MySQL for operations that aren't using an advanced feature that the other plainly doesn't support will be roughly comparable in performance. I understand this isn't true, but it's useful in that it gives me a baseline to work with when reasoning without forcing me to migrate my application (or at least a significant portion of the data) to PostgreSQL just to test. If I'm then confronted with a feature that one supports and the other doesn't that has the capability to in some cases reduce the query time by an order of magnitude, then it's starts approaching the criteria needed for me to invest that time to see if it's worth migrating.

> I gather that people considering migrating who want some reassurance before investing time in testing should be more interested in such things things as benchmarks that show whether PostgreSQL can saturate your hardware for various query types

Isn't that exactly what this is? Throwing CPU cores at aggregating data to reduce time? I asked for benchmarks regarding this specific feature, to see what type of gain we were talking about with this. I didn't ask for comparisons to other databases because those benchmarks are generally harder to perform fairly, so I would have been (and am) happy with comparative gain benchmarks.

Unfortunately today's social/culture/politics environment is very sensitive and it's pretty much guaranteed that there will be a problem with this being offensive, insensitive or otherwise unprofessional.

> but that's 0.001% of the people cooking

What are you basing that number on?

Once someone starts using the system to make money, a number of important dynamics change.

- they need to start buying more products, with the intent of making a profit, so there is even more incentive for them to buy "discount" items that are marked down due to being close to their use-by date. Risk goes up.

- they need to store a lot more products. How many home kitchens do you know of that have different fridges to completely separate raw meat from cooked meat, dairy, etc?

- they need to have a way to keep the prepared food ready to 'serve' once it's been prepared/cooked. How many home kitchens do you know that can keep prepared food easy/quick to serve and hygienic at the same time?

Your idea is no more about "sharing economy" than Uber is. They're both just saying "who needs accreditation, licences or insurance - any schmoe can do this".
That I don't know. In any case it is wrong for people to assume this is only applied for cities like Brussels and Paris.
You get used to the local water, it's safe in most any urban area in SEA.

Refrigerated bottled water is cheap though, only 12 cents, but I know many locals who perceive drinking out of plastic bottles to be a bigger health risk than drinking tap water.
And records the congolmerate that actually owns the brand.

So many food brands are now just meaningless words in someone's brand portfolio. Especially silly when the two main competitors for an item turn out to now be owned by the same parent and rationalised to be made in the same factory.

They get traded around like football cards.

Nope. The boat made me think of other situations.

> big american apartment building can be very lonely and isolating. No one talks to anyone. You goto work, u go home, u interact only with your tv.

Do you see the irony of the situation - you're complaining about a lack of social interaction and community - and your solution is an app and the transfer of money.
Oh, you're right. That's crazy!
Thanks - you're absolutely right. I've been meaning to rebuild the index with a lower threshold. Right now I think there are only something like 140k fragments in there. I also plan to add a "score" slider so you can choose the quality of your autocompletions.
Possibly so. My gluten sensitivity is worse than my father's. Why? Environment? Different genes having slightly different effects? Heck if I know.

But at this point in my life, it also no longer matters for me. It is certainly the case that I must avoid gluten now. And, alas, to the extent that it matters for my children, they're almost certainly also going to be biologically-grown-up before we have any solid answers either. In the meantime I just do my best for them.
We're status-conscious? I have to say that has never actually occurred to me.
The only real expectation that I have is that I'll come out of it with tons of experiences. Who knows what'll happen or not happen.
and there's no sensible way to save the intermediate value of a pipeline in a file

Sounds like you are looking for Tee-Object[0].

"Saves command output in a file or variable and also sends it down the pipeline."

And of course Microsoft have missed the opportunity to fix the path separator.

Windows supports both path separators in pretty much all cases (open files, changing directories, etc)

PS C:\> d:
PS D:\> cd /projects/node_modules/immutable/node_modules/uglify-js/node_modules
PS D:\projects\node_modules\immutable\node_modules\uglify-js\node_modules>

Text output is crippled

I guess this depends on what you want out of the system. Some options are:

"format-table -auto" which provides a nicely formatted table view of the data

"format-list" which provides each property on a separate line with a blank line between objects

"format-custom" which allows you to create your own views of objects (with a very readable default), which has ultimate flexibility

"converto-csv" which output the object as a CSV (or with custom delimiters such as TSV)

"converto-html" which outputs the object as an html table (with somewhat customizable markup)

"convertto-xml" similar to the above

But really, if it's possible, then it makes sense to use the object pipeline until you're done (so that different parts of the pipeline can use different parts of the object). Then spitting out CSV, TSV, XML, etc should get interop with basically every other tool that's going to process text in some way.

Having young children, there's almost always a box of macaroni and cheese in the house.

My kids, who fancy themselves mac & cheese connoisseurs, started complaining about the taste of Kraft a couple of months ago.

So now when Kraft advertises on TV that they changed their mac & cheese and nobody noticed, my eight- and six-year-old just roll their eyes. I suppose the upside is, they're already learning that you can't believe advertising.
It's not much of a prize, but the fact that it goes up for some tech-related deaths and not others makes it a de facto posthumous award, whether it's intended to be or not. People inevitably talk about how someone "deserves" the black bar, as if it should be something earned and not given.

IIRC The pin must contain at least one key that's in the current chain and at least one key that's not in the current chain.

So it first would need to set the header to include the ransomed key, then deliver the page using that key and afterwards remove the other keys.

Edit: I just read in the RFC. It is in section 2.5 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7469#section-2.5):

containing at least one of the SPKI structures indicated by at
least one of the given SPKI Fingerprints (see Section 2.6).

o The given set of Pins contains at least one Pin that does NOT
refer to an SPKI in the certificate chain. (That is, the host
must set a Backup Pin; see Section 4.3.)

Is there a real need for this project ? I mean, this project has been used for a long time, could it really be better ? Do you intend to replace GNU coreutils ?

Not to be mean, just a genuine question (and yes I read the Why section of the readme).
JS is definitely the wrong language for a number of programming projects. JS lacks a number of features that other languages have... on its own, that doesn't make it a bad language, but it means it's less useful for certain projects.

Like this one. Like the POSIX API that is actually compatible with other applications.

And by that definition of used, C and Java are pretty strong competitors, seeing as every SIM card and Bluray player and so many more run Java... and then there's Linux and its embedded RTOS cousins, etc., etc., that are written in C or C++. I think embedded devices beat out JS pretty well.
