If you feel like parting with one it would be cool to consider the pilot who posted the story (as he's lamenting that it's too expensive) :D
That may all be true and I don't dispute the duration and the fact that it wouldn't be binding at this level. However, what the FBI need is something to get the ball rolling, the golden case that would set a precedent; that would almost definitely become binding in the higher court. They want a good foundation from which to proceed and I believe this case is now not it for them. They will wait for something that galvanises the general public and the courts more so than the current case, which will ultimately have a higher likelihood of setting the ball rolling towards a precedent. There's no other reason for this misappropriation of the All Writs Act other than to try and ultimately set a precedent.
> like Google did with Android Studio

You mean by still not being able to provide an working experience to the NDK users, three years later?

Or by redoing their plugins for Android Studio 2.0, forcing devs that rely on something stable to still be on Android Studio 1.5?

Also by having each release be a bug party that make people at /r/androiddev/ wonder if they ever test what they release?
As a Belgian, this news hit very hard. There's always reports of attacks in other countries, but it's a totally different feeling when it happens in your home country.
Mark Kelly on the advisory board, not bad. It's the only person on the team page that I've heard of.
>Sure, the people who vote Republican believe it, but the elected officials don't.

... which is why the Republican Party is set to lose an election that should have been an easy lay-up.

>During the Bush years, when the Republicans controlled congress and the presidency, federal spending grew enormously.

That's how we ended up with the budget sequester, which is the only thing that seems to have actually worked since the Gingrich House in the mid '90s. Now that the sequester is gone federal spending will grow in leaps and bounds no matter who is in power. It's built into the system.

Sounds like the prototypical "build something that doesn't scale". I have no idea how capital intensive this is (other than...a lot) but I too think building a Boom-0 and flying it NYC-London as often as possible is the best first step. Just make sure to have the first couple of flights filled with investor types ;)
You really want some innovators that spread the word. Some lawyer telling their friends how he was able to close a deal because of that flight, some top executive peddling the "home to tuck in the kids" story at the next business meeting etc.
What are the canonical answers we've discovered over the years?
This. The value of social status could be easily tested by exchanging a high salary for significant ownership of the company. My bet is that people would be just as happy.

Someone here recently ranted a bit against the fact that bright minds work in finance on useless work instead of greater things. The one answer from such a worker was about the huge difference between management compensation and worker compensation in those other, "more important" fields. Not the absolute salary.

Funnily enough, not just the fact that users and developers need to care about drive letters, the drive C: itself is called drive C: because drives A: and B: were reserved for floppy drives. And I don't think many machines have had floppy drives in the 2000's.

Linux has had a unified directory tree since the early 90's where it completely doesn't matter which drives host which directories. Implementing such a tree on Windows and mapping "C:", "D:" etc. as pseudo-roots to suitable locations to make it backwards compatible would not be an insurmountable task. Surely not trivial, but even on Windows application programs do not write to physical drives directly which gives the filesystem an opportunity to do any path translations it wants to. Thus, the question becomes a matter of will: Why hasn't Microsoft considered it important to fix their drive accesses?

What do they see as the advantage of having drives mapped to drive letters? It's certainly not usability: Linux can produce "drive icons" for each mounted drive. You plug in a USB stick and its icon shows up on the desktop――all this regardless of whether the USB stick is actually mounted in /mnt/$STICK or /media/$USER/$STICK or wherever.

They could also support mounting extra drives to directories under C: so that the user would never have to deal with other drive letters. The "C:" would just be a historical prefix but in practice it wouldn't matter because you could mount your second disk at C:\Program Files\ and the applications wouldn't even know about it. I vaguely remember that WinNT kernel could actually do this, however it's apparently well-hidden from users because I don't see this having been set up anywhere.
It wasn't a decision, per se. The court has simply refused to hear the case, which is what it does with most cases. They can always decide to hear a similar case later, or even change their minds about this one.

I wish they would have heard the case and explicitly found for Colorado. Under the plaintiff's logic, states would have a veto on anything their neighbors decided to do.

>Personal possession of weed is already completely legal under federal law via the equal protection clause. Once they passed the law saying that it's legal in DC, that means that it's now legal everywhere, even if they haven't yet taken the time to strike the old language from the books.

Pot isn't legal in DC. It's still against federal law everywhere in the US.

Not that Congress actually has the power, under the constitution, to make possession illegal. But that boat sailed long ago.
Sometimes the state of the current media is a bit saddening. One source says 11 dead, 25 wounded. Another source at the same time, the federal police nota bene, says 1 dead. Wouldn't it be better, in cases like these, if only things were reported which are actually confirmed by multiple sources?

BBC: "Explosion at Metro close to EU building"
That explicitly seems to be the goal: "We want to charge more for 24/7 support"
That question is akin to asking why there even is a 'third world'. Companies capitalize on the fact that you and enough of your countrymen are willing to take less pay because you are charging based on your costs-of-living rather than based on the value that you create. And because everybody does it if you refuse someone else will step into your shoes to do it. The thing to remember is that if it wasn't cheaper then the outsourcing would have never happened in the first place. So until your economy as a whole has been lifted up to the point where the wages between the two countries are at parity this situation will likely persist.

The best way to tackle the problem then is to become a founder that will pay 'first world' wages to employees in the third world. But I'll bet that when given the option the management of that company will wonder why they are throwing money away and will instead pay the same that everybody else does because they don't perceive any gain.

The only thing then that will really solve this is (hopefully) the eventual rise of the standard of living globally. But for that to happen societies would need to change in a dramatic fashion. Less corruption, more equality between men and women, less nepotism and more meritocracy, fewer dictatorships (in fact or in name) and so on.

For the foreseeable future this situation will persist, with slow improvements over time and a lot of potential for set-backs.

You absolutely nailed it on the head. I am one of these "staff augmentation" devs and it has been bothering me for awhile now. I would love to try my hand at one of these "trendy" startups as a full-time employee but I am pretty much the opposite of what they seem to be looking for:

- non-technical degree from a local state school
- 35+ years old
- only have a couple of years of professional software development experience and most of it as a contractor/consultant
- not white
- most of my work is back end bug-fixing, maintenance, being in an on-call rotation, and occasionally integrating some system to some enterprise database
- buzzwords in my resume (Java, Borg, RPC, Hibernate, SQL, XML, Eclipse IDE, DAO, DTO, etc) probably scares off the young devs because apparently anything remotely related to J2EE or enterprise is evil
- my real employer is one of those Indian staffing firms

I tried one of those "dev auction" sites (Hired.com) one time. The "talent advocate" assigned to me got really excited upon hearing I am currently a contractor at the BigCo. in Mountain View, CA. She immediately put me up on auction and I guess her enthusiasm got to me since I got excited as well when I started seeing all these cool San Francisco startups viewing my profile.

Then both of us were disappointed when none of the startups were interested. The auction period came and went. I had zero offers to chat on the phone despite dozens of views. She was nice enough to give me another auction round and I went for it. Only a half dozen new views on my profile that time but at least I got one phone interview out of it. The talent advocate was a bit confused by the whole thing and couldn't understand why most of the startups didn't even want to speak to me. She did offer to personally reach out to some of the startups on my behalf but I knew what happened so I politely bowed out of the auction.

So I guess I have this stigma now and I know it's only going to get tougher the older I get. I want to fix this and hopefully move to a full-time product development role before it is too late. Should I quit my job and go back to school? Join a coding bootcamp or "hacker community"? Continue working as a contractor and keep applying to startups on the side?

If you've a Swagger/OpenAPI spec, you can use Swagger Codegen (https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen) to generate API clients (SDKs) in C#, Ruby, PHP, Java, ObjC, etc. Here is an example: https://github.com/wing328/petstore-php

A good starting point is to generate the SDK online: https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen#online-genera...

Swagger-Codegen can also generate server stub in SpringMVC, PHP Slim and more.

The difference is that you come from a background where you see people (eg your parents) earning a good income and believe that a $100k loan is something you can actually afford in the long term. Someone from a poor background whose parents have never earned a high income would very likely see $100k debt as an impossible barrier they'll never get past, and consequently would be a lot less likely to take on the risk.

If schools didn't "soak the rich" then the potential of the student from a poor background would never be realised, and humanity would be the worse for it.

Like the sibling poster, I regularly get 65-ish miles without any worry, and have done in the mid-90s (no HVAC, very modest speeds and acceleration).

My normal commute is 16 miles round trip, and I regularly get 4 days out of a charge in the summer and 3 in the winter before deciding (not "needing") to charge.

We also have my wife's 11 year-old CR-V, so I've never felt really "stuck" with the range. The one day I needed the 90 mile range for 2 factory tours, I drove carefully and extra-economically, but also had several charging stations picked out to bail out to.

I'm happy with mine, but would be less so if it was our only car.

Because the shell has a lot of room for improvement. Try powershell for a bit. Look at its design, look at the things it can do that the unix shell has problems with.

Everything's an object. Instead of passing lines of text, you're passing objects, with properties, types, etc. This becomes important because of

Library files are first class citizens. Because the shell is string based, you have to wrap everything up in functions, creating helpers in order to use any sort of function. Powershell makes this trivial, such that you can use functions you wrote elsewhere in your scripts as if they were builtins. Hell, it's trivial to write a webserver that forks multiple processes in powershell.

Yes, the unix shell was revolutionary when it was released, but it's been hamstrung by tradition. The shell is long overdue for letting in more interesting abilties.
You can mount a volume, even one that is already mounted with a drive letter, under any empty NTFS directory.

Explosions Bring Brussels Airport to a Halt
RT is now reporting 17 dead: https://www.rt.com/news/336519-explosions-hit-brussels-airpo...

I take it as people relaying the information that they have, along with the degree of confidence of that information. The reporting of unconfirmed information eventually consolidates and a consensus is reached about the truth.

Some of the info also changes moment to moment. Maybe the number was 10 a while ago, but it's 17 now. Reporters don't want to wait a day until police have comprehensively examined the crime scene - they want to report their best guess as breaking news now, since people are curious and want to know what's going on.

The question is, how does unconfirmed information go to becoming confirmed? When several people report it. If I see an explosion first hand and post about it to Twitter, then that's unconfirmed, but people will share it to spread the word, at which point it will either be corroborated or people will call it out as a hoax. Somewhere along the line, a news organization investigates the sources and "calls it" as confirmed, but they're using their judgment in relying on sources they have access to, either from their own reporters on the ground, or from other news agencies, or from enough people reporting the same thing to take the accounts as trustworthy. There may be no "confirmed" death toll until days for now - until after the disposition of all injured victims is known, for example. (Some may day later in the hospital.)

Many different news organizations as well as bloggers and other people all posting their best guess as to what's going on. I have no first hand information about what's happening, so I'm personally trying to relay all the information I have by linking to it directly.

That's not surprising when we know there were shootings last week "linked" to Paris attack. Euro 2016 (in France) starts in 80 days.
We are having explosions targeting civilians in Turkey. They are occuring in two big cities Istanbul and Ankara. People are frightened to go outside nowadays. They are trying not to use public transport. And these news keep pressuring Turkish people to stay at home more and more. Our last explosion was at heart of Istanbul, Taksim at 19th March and 13th March, 17th February before that at Ankara.

TL;DR: in Europe salaries are usually discussed after taxes, whereas that amount with all taxes (on both employee and employer) can raise that sum around 2 times or more.

Don't forget the huge system difference.

Are those salaries before taxes or after taxes? Europeans like to know their salary after taxes. Health benefits, PTO, parental leave? In US it's totally under your company's grace, where in Europe most of this is set by law.

All in all salaries are counted different, if employee in Europe has a salary (after taxes) of 30k €, then usually around 15-25k € went for taxes. Thus salary before taxation 45-55k €. Nevertheless employer must pay for that employee somewhere in between 5-15k € (at least in my country) of employer taxes (which are not part of employees salary, but employer is taxes according to it). So whole cost of one employee who is compensated 30k € after taxes is 50-70k €.

Of course it depends on the country and there are 'tax havens'.
Someone who was so high on a company with so much negative influence to the world doesn't deserve a black bar.

I think the newer cars are easier in some ways and harder in others. The design commonality, use of common subcomponents, on-board diagnostics (fallible, of course), fuel injection, electronic ignition, and closed-loop ECU controls make a lot of maintenance activities easier.

Plug in, pull the codes, replace a part, clear the codes is a lot easier than the old days of diagnosing carburetor issues, changing/adjusting points, etc.

Where it's harder is when you need something that is now locked down, but for regular maintenance activities (as opposed to modifications for more power), that is fairly rare in my experience, wrenching on my own cars for about 30 years.

They're trying to build a radical Muslim state, so they need radical Muslims to support them. Exploding bombs is the best way to get the non-Muslims to turn against all Muslims, who become more likely to radicalize as a result. Moderate people are useless to ISIS and their kind.

At least, that's how I understand ISIS explains it themselves in their promotional material, haven't actually read those myself.
