Not just that -- Mark Miller, designer of E, is also an advisor to Sandstorm.io, the parent project of Cap'n Proto:

https://sandstorm.io/about#advisors

Cap'n Proto is very much E's distributed programming concepts "ported" to other languages, and Mark helped me get the details right.

Interestingly, E takes a very different approach from standard distributed systems practices today. Most distributed programming today emphasizes stateless servers performing idempotent operations on a monolithic datastore. Stateful servers are considered too hard to get right. What E did is actually provide the vocabulary needed to be able to reason about stateful servers, so you could get them right. Stateful servers are able to achieve massively better performance, especially in terms of latency, because they don't need to hit persistent storage for every single operation. You obviously need some way to deal with machine and network failures, but E provides that.

CloudGear | DevOps/Software Engineer | 60-100% | REMOTE (Europe)

CloudGear is a startup based in Zurich, Switzerland. We offer Docker and Kubernetes consulting and are working on a Kubernetes-as-a-service product to help companies adopt a modern infrastructure based on containers.

We are building up a small team and you work together with the founders as well as directly with large customers where Kubernetes is already used in production. You'll have a high impact on the product, team culture and company as we are just starting. Technologies used are Rails/Ruby, PostgreSQL, Redis, Go, Docker, Kubernetes, etcd.

We are looking for talented DevOps and software engineers with solid Docker and automation knowledge and decent programming skills e.g. Ruby, Python or Go. Experience with Kubernetes is a plus but not mandatory. We even go a step further and dedicate up to two weeks upfront where you can learn and explore Kubernetes.

Nope, nowhere near that far off. MIR will be landing this year, and while we don't have a timeframe for NLL yet it's definitely a priority and it's clear that the devs are giving thought to it, as per this post.
A few reasons: (1) x264 is better optimized for metrics, especially PSNR. Example: removing --tune=psnr gives x264 a 12% decrease in its PSNR score in this test set (!); (2) the resolution here is only 360p, and as resolution goes down, so do gains versus codecs optimized for high-resolution content (like HEVC/VP9); (3) this article uses inverse notation, so instead of "H264 uses 50% more bits than X for same quality" (which is the same as X using 33% less bits than H264 for same quality), this article says "Eve uses 15-20% less bits than x264 for same quality".

ONSITE/PT REMOTE
We are the new Boston Globe Media and we are growing -- fast. With a foundation in leading-edge technology and data-driven product development, we are rapidly building a team that is as obsessed as we are with innovation and change. The decision to join this team is thus the choice to be at the start of something bigger, something scarier, than the work any of us has done before. But that is how everything great begins.

The Core Team within our Media Lab is looking for an engineer to help bring us to the next level. We find fulfillment through our code, solving tough technical challenges and creating next generation products that are at the center of all of The Globe’s media publications. If this interests you then please apply.

Here is what we’re offering:

Backend: We use Java, Jersey, Groovy, Postgres and Jenkins for all newer applications that drive our circulation and other core products. Some of our core products are written in .Net Web Forms and SQL. You’ll play a big part in migrating these to Java. Our publications are written in PHP - Wordpress.
Frontend: Our circulation and payment applications are web applications written in Javascript, JQuery and CSS. We use Angular, JQuery, React and REST services.
The Team: We value our customers and each other above all. The impact we create is immediate and seen across the company. We most care about coming together and doing great work to revolutionize this iconic brand

Here’s what you’ll bring to the table:

Strong technical skills: Specifically in modern Java and .Net web environments. We aren’t overly concerned with the other accompanying technologies. If you’re interested in learning we are interested in teaching them to you.
A passion for your craft: Caring deeply about the quality of your code. Our culture is defined by the impact we create through our work. If this is you too, let's talk!
A desire to own something big.

One thing I don't like about the chip is it seems to take a much longer time to authenticate. Is this the same in Europe as well? Would be nice if it was as fast as a swipe. But I rather have better security.
Not at all – 2.0 means a breaking change, but currently the borrow checker is just too restrictive. Loosening it a bit won't be a breaking change, as it allows strictly more code, not less. The landing of MIR is an implementation detail (a quite large at that, but nevertheless), and it shouldn't have any observable effects. (Except for maybe some bugs getting fixed.)
Quick description: I built this to map job openings across job boards and show only the ones local to my current location. Living in LA, telling me a job is located in the same city doesn't tell me if the commute is 10 minutes or 1.5 hours away. This helps narrow the search down to geographic areas I'm interested in. It should currently be pulling in jobs from 30+ job boards (stackoverflow, indeed, github, builtinX, etc).

So do you think it's reasonable that contempt of court can carry a life sentence without even being convicted by a jury of your peers? Is contempt of court a worse crime than assault or manslaughter?

You have the right to not divulge information from your mind that would incriminate yourself. In the US this is called the 5th amendment.
If the funding bubble for startups has burst, fine, look to crowdfund startups and projects that people actually want to use.

I wanted to validate ideas early and tighten the feedback loop for products I was building, so we built Baqqer in the hopes it would create transparent projects and companies that help grow community from day one. Less time floating around until launch going "I hope someone uses or pays me for this." and more time spent figuring out what people actually want.
This is really interesting! I ran into hints of this when I was doing the lit review for my dissertation. Not so much the internet part, but there was a RAND corporation memo on the Five-Year Plan of 1970 that mentioned the goal of placing all industrial production under rational, automatic control. I suppose I could have inferred an internet from that, but I was more interested in the idea that they wanted to run their economy with a giant linear program. (Which is an idea that was also briefly popular in the U.S. during the late 1940s and early 50s.)
I liked reading the code for this - added a Star too.

"Our friends at Tesla should work with the burgeoning developer community to open a fully supported and safe public API."

Wholeheartedly agree! with some caveats/concerns.

Are there any API calls that will not function while the car is in motion, such as "open the falcon doors"?

My other concern is even with two-factor authentication, say you are driving and your phone starts getting spammed with authentication requests from someone trying to use your account/api key - that could be quite distracting.

According to Wikipedia the $90 million is without an engine, which is just weird.

For smaller air forces, which won't have enough plane fight of the Russians anyway, there's little reason for buying a plane like the F-35. Some of the competitors are actually planes like the F-18 Super Hornet or the SAAB Gripen, priced at around $60 million. Sure they are aren't as modern, but for the needs of many small countries they're actually fine.
My health prof in college said people gain weight because they don't maintain their muscle as they age...muscle requires 30 calories/pound just to maintain.
Let's not exaggerate the problem. First of all, non-lexical lifetimes have nothing to do with doubly linked lists (what you're referring to). Second, the language is clearly generally usable, as evidenced by the hundreds of thousands of lines of code written in it, most of which was written by people who have never touched the compiler. The reason is simple: most people get by just fine with the rich set of generic collections available in the standard library and on crates.io. For cases in which those aren't sufficient, you write unsafe code or use Rc.

Nobody claims Golang is "generally unusable" because you can't implement your own generic data structures. That it's harder than in unsafe C or C++ to implement doubly linked lists in Rust is just a less severe version of the same kind of thing.

As with most duress mechanisms, one would have to judge whether using it was better or worse than not -- I suppose ideally one would have two, one of which simply reenabled the passcode and would have some deniability (this is effectively already possible by using a nonstandard finger, unless LE has witnessed previous successful unlocks and can identify the finger which should be used), and one which initiated a wipe of the phone.

Contempt is a weird power in general, especially when it's used for reasons like "disrespecting the judge." If I am disrespectful to the governor of my state, or if I'm disrespectful to a police officer, or if I'm disrespectful to a fireman or a bailiff or a legislator or a district attorney or a teacher or the President, that is a thing that I can legally do. But for some reason it's not outrageous for a judge to send me to jail because I showed them insufficient respect.
You have to go through security again for international flights that connect to a domestic flight, but not usually (ever?) if you've passed TSA within the US and are connecting to leave the country. That's true at every airport in the US, not just Miami.
Why not take them to small claims court?
It bugs me that LLVM targets are not properly 'plug in'.

LLVM backends can be in a plugin, but you have to tell the frontend which target to use (so it can use the correct data-layout etc). Its the frontends that don't support plug-in targets. Clang, for example, hardcodes the supported targets.

A combination of using enums as a 'target triple' and lack of dynamic target registration conspire against easy-to-use out-of-tree targets :(
It's likely as simple as a failed company of people from the beginning that got lucky with one or two games because of external forces and thought they could make run of it forever. It's not a new story in the games industry, it happens all the time. The only reason this seems different is because of the extreme overvaluation at the beginning of the hype train that's been failing for the last few years.

Take a look at ION Storm as a somewhat related story.
What do you mean by "many"? And do you have a source for that?

Lucrative internships are generally like $25/hr. 102k is twice that.
This is the part that really ticks me off:

>Charlotte Douglas International Airport in North Carolina recently said it had experienced three-hour wait times. [...] (T.S.A. officials denied that the wait had ever been that long, telling local reporters that it had been 75 minutes for a short time.)

Will someone, anyone, please write the simple app that you punch in as you start the line, you punch out as you leave screening, with some simple checks with GPS so we know you are really in one location for that time? Aggregate the data and let people coming to the airport have an idea of how long the wait will be. Use the data as political leverage so the TSA cannot claim "well, the wait wasn't that long". Tell people in line to install the app while they wait, and assure them that their politicians will see the data.

Probably not much money in this, but your app will go viral this summer, apparently...
Great team! Would recommend!
> The votes are almost entirely in right now, and Sanders would need a miracle.

Its pretty unlikely that either candidate will have a sufficient number of pledged delegates. Hillary seems far ahead because of early statements of support from superdelegates, made at a time when her support numbers (both overall and within the party) were much higher, and here unfavorable ratings with the general election electorate much lower, when no one could imagine any other Democratic candidate garnering anywhere close to as much support through the primary and caucus process, and before she was roundly out fundraised by Sanders.

Now, while the media coverage of delegate counts has largely treated these superdelegate statements of support as equivalent to pledged delegates awarded through the primary and caucus process, they are not.
Nothing. The 3d printer is overkill. A fingerprint and a pack of gelatin is more than sufficient.

Ah, I didn't realize you were talking about subreddits getting "promoted". That definitely sounds like a nightmare.

I think that quality subs can bubble up slowly, with manageable growth, by virtue of being featured on r/bestof and the like.
Yes, some exercise routines require well over 2000 calories a day, but that's still pedantically missing the point of my comment.

If somebody is confused about why they need to burn 3000 calories a day to keep from gaining weight, they're eating too much.
