True. Police don't typically get involved in immigration status in the US as they do in China or Japan [or other places, which I may not be familiar with]
I was made aware the police would raid places which had foreign workers on a periodic basis --so even if you had a proper visa, if the employer was over their visa quota you could get kicked out --the employer would have to fire you to come under compliance and you'd lose your visa sponsorship and have to leave. It was fun having to wait out police immigration raids, sometimes looking for kickback to not look too hard for the foreigners.
ImperialViolet – Signed overflow in C
Because as someone with a legacy ASP.NET application I now wonder how much effort it would take to port.

If it was Core.NET I wouldn't know without actually reading the detail, which I am not likely to do because it's a low margin project.

-------------

What the world really needs is a poster that teachers
can hang in their classrooms with a map of the world
of math. It would essentially be a directed acyclic
graph, with nodes representing mathematical concepts,
and arrows linking those concepts to the next level
of concepts one can learn, as well as real-life
problems that can be solved with that level of math.
For example, the chart would start with basic
arithmetic, with addition and subtraction leading to
multiplication and division. The related tasks
possible with addition would be things like grocery
shopping, subtraction would be figuring change from a
purchase or determining how much time remains before
some event. Multiplication would allow one to make
simple designs, calculate taxes and tips, etc. The
arrows would then go through the concepts of algebra,
geometry, calculus, and on to things like the Fourier
transform. The things one can do at a particular
level could be represented as a bubble, with more
math leading to a bigger bubble (and, if necessary to
convince the kids, more money).

This would also be beneficial to college students
trying to convince their brains to remember all the
seemingly-useless things they are learning in one
class because they need to understand the concepts
for next semester's classes. In fact, such roadmaps
would make life a lot easier in general. "Want to
become a $140000/year contractor? These are the
steps you follow."

What to Wear to a Summer Wedding Dress Code by Outfit
We have plenty of communal areas away from desks (e.g. the kitchen area is the size of this section of office) for people to have conversations - they know this already. But open plan softens (if not erases) the distinction between "communal area" and "work area".

Also we don't have enough meeting rooms to accommodate even scheduled meetings which means "camping out in empty meeting rooms" is a non-starter of a suggestion, sadly.
I would say that «a mathematical universe» would be more correct here, because they just cover some of the areas; for example searching for «Ramsey» will yield no results; «probability» will yield just one result where an algebraic construction happens to be useful for calculating some probabilities.
If you're a careless user, don't root your phone. If you pay attention, use common sense, and don't have a thousand Play store apps installed; you'll probably be okay. Another way to look at it is by comparing your phone to your desktop or laptop computer. How often do you unintentionally break it with malware? Often? Don't root your phone. Rarely or never? You'll be okay.

The best advice I can offer is to stay the hell away from Google Play. That trash, and the rest of their services, are the first things I strip from my phones. Instead, use properly licensed open source software, from the F-Droid repository (or similar). If it's not a proprietary app (Twitter/Facebook/Snapchat/etc.), there's likely a FOSS version that's better than anything on the Play store. Flashlight apps don't need to access your contact list, or read your call logs, or have an open port in your firewall. The damned bastards.

On F-Droid you'll find (for your rooted phone):

AFWall+, an IPTables firewall GUI. Very nice looking and intuitive. Don't think I've ever used a firewall so easy to configure.

Autostart, an app that prevents garbage from auto-starting. A bunch of junkware usually loads up when you activate things like WiFi and GPS, or reboot the phone. Autostart can be configured to block the bloat, and in turn, make your phone run much more efficiently.

Disable Manager, to disable unsavory services (Play, Facebook, etc.). If you're worried that deleting things will break the phone, this app will put your mind at ease, because you can use it to turn things off and on, like a switch, instead of outright deleting.

AdAway, generic name, but it does what it's supposed to; system-wide ad blocking. It's FOSS, under GPL. If you avoid the Play store, configure your firewall, and use an ad blocker addon on Firefox, you might not even need an app like this one.

There's a bunch of other cool, trustworthy, stuff on F-Droid that's not going to abuse your phone. When it comes down to it, if you stick with FOSS, you won't need to root the phone; a non-root firewall will suffice.

Apologies for the rant, this was supposed to be a short reply, I don't know what happened.
For those you could write a normal blogpost and tweet the url and a 140 character -len(url) abstract.
Twitter's onboarding process is a mess. Last time I checked they offer up some "famous" people for you to follow, and then leave you to it to work out how to extract value from the feed.

If you can be bothered to spend hours setting up lists and/or carefully curating who you follow you might be able to extract value from your feed. Failing that, a third party app like Tweetdeck might help. IMO all of this is too much hard work.
Kash (YC S14) Is Hiring Full-Stack Engineers to Build a New Payment Network
Kash (YC S14) | withkash.com | Full Stack Engineer | ONSITE in San Francisco, CA / Waterloo, ON, Canada / Toronto, ON, Canada

We're on a mission to build a new payment network as an alternative to credit cards.

Why? Credit cards impose a hidden tax on everything. The profit margin of your average neighborhood store is under 2%. A typical grocery store’s operating margin is around 1.7%. On the other hand, the typical cost of processing all payments is about 2%. As Priceonomics puts it, "Credit card fees are 2% or more of nearly pure profit."

There has been many innovations built on top of the existing credit card network, but none of those fundamentally changes the equation. Kash is changing the equation.

With the former CEO of Visa leading our board, and all the momentum we're seeing, we're confident that a new network can be built. Come chat with us to learn more if you think this is a worthy cause.

We're looking for engineers with a demonstrated ability to learn and we have a preference for those with experience in building scalable software. We have many interesting challenges involving system architecture, fraud detection, and risk assessment algorithm. Apply if you have a passion for building disruptive systems and a desire get in on the ground floor of something huge.

We currently use: GCE/AWS, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Cassandra, Docker, Kubernetes, Angular.js, React, Objective-C for iOS, Android

For more details and to apply, please visit http://withkash.com/careers. If you’re interested in the Toronto location, please apply to the Waterloo posting and let me know. My email: danny@withkash.com

As you admitted, your behaviour is rediculous, hope for your sake, your boss or customers don't read this.
Glad I'm not the only skeptic here. It will likely find a way to count towards storage limits, or find some subtle way to try and monetize like charging for history or slapping ads similar to Twitter's discover or promotional stuff that requires add-ins to remove. Honestly once they went to the intrusive format of hangouts / killed gchat, I lost an valuable means of informal contact with a lot of folks who just turned it off entirely. Gonna nurse that one for a while longer.
I don't think when discussing young kids the main motivator should be to teach them to program. Rather, as a parent I like to expose my kids to as many different ways of thinking and expressing one self as possible.

"I remember one of the coolest things about the apple II was that you could 'poke' the right memory address and get the speaker to click. "

My 8 year old enjoys drawing characters in Scratch and then programming game and movement logic for them. Personally, I fail to see which experience has more objective value. Personal experiences such as you describe are mystical in the way that there is no rational way to share them with anyone else or make them understand it unless they've felt it themselves.

I don't really think there is a "wrong way" to have fun with a computer.

I think it's incorrect to view kids programming environments as a part of vocational programming curriculum. Rather, they are yet one more platform where kids can be creative and enjoy building things for themselves, like with Legos.

You don't need to prove / disprove that the defendent hasn't forgotten their pass, you need to convince someone else.

For some cases the burden of proof will be "balance of probabilities"; for other cases it'll be "beyond all reasonable doubt".

This is the kind of thing that courts deal with all the time - how can you prove that a thief had the intention of permanently depriving someone of something and wasn't just borrowing that item? How can you prove a murderer really wanted to kill a person and not just injure them?
I'm not sure you fully grok async/await then. Thing is, using async/await means using promises. You can't use async/await without promises. An async function returns a promise. Always. (in a way, `async` can be seen as something of a type annotation).

If you want to use async/await with something that's asynchronous but not Promise based, you'll first need to convert it into a promise before you can async/await it. This is actually very elegant in my opinion: instead of proposing yet another way to do asynchronicity in JS, async/await fully embraces Promises, which you already know.

Of course, this means that async/await also has all of Promise's downsides. For example, you can only resolve a promise once, so neither Promises now async/await make dealing with streams of asynchonous events any easier.

I think a good intro to programming is video games, especially ones that let you build custom maps (for me it was Age of Empires and Starcraft). All the units and such can be seen as a huge metaphor for object-oriented programming. With some games you can also add in custom scripts. Of course this doesn't teach practical skill, but at least can get them thinking of the concepts while engaging them with something more exciting than hello world or a calculator.
I agree with you and I'm on the same boat as you.
What do you mean?

(UINT_MAX - x < y) is wrong, if x and y are both of type int, it should be: (INT_MAX - x < y), which is defined and will yield true, if an overflow on x+y would happen.
This seems to be too quick to dismiss the problems people have self reported.

In addition, the idea that there is no such thing as sexual immorality is one that I strongly disagree with.
The licensing issue with PyQt is very simple: it's the main source of revenue for Riverbank, a small UK company founded by PyQt's author, Phil Thompson. He can't give it away for free because it's literally his livelihood. He does a great job of evolving and updating the wrappers -- just ask how "easy" that is to the PySide authors, which are supposed to do the same job and have been struggling (technically and financially) ever since their project lost "free money" when Nokia died.

The licensing for Qt itself is very simple: if you redistribute and don't go GPL, you have to pay. It's one of the fairest arrangements out there. PyQt has similar terms.
You bring up a few interesting points.

In my example there wouldn't be any room for a CC chargeback because we can assume all of the transactions are denoted in ETH itself. This is one of the qualities that enable the smart contracts to transact currency automatically. The programming language used to codify the smart contracts includes primitives to transact ETH.

The possibility of a minor transacting is interesting and I know there has been some discussion on implementing an identity framework on Ethereum (https://github.com/tradle/about/wiki/Identity-on-Ethereum). One can imagine then a contract which further limits participants by age.

I think you'll find though that many early adopter/enthusiasts don't care about age or jurisdiction. It's not obvious why US law should apply.

As a thought experiment though, I should ask about the properties which US courts hold that enable them to enforce contracts. Ultimately doesn't it come down to a court order, which if ignored ends in garnishment, imprisonment, or worse?

In theory, in a blockchain-enabled contract world, garnishments would either no longer be necessary or could automatically be enforced.

At the scary extreme you could even imagine a future where security drones owned by the "Sovereign State of Etheria" which fly around enforcing smart contracts with hunt/capture/kill orders. Slock.it is the most popular example bridging the real world/IoT with a DAO. And would this really be altogether different from how contracts are enforced manually in egregious cases?

I'm not stating any of this is good or bad, I'm just illustrating what is possible now and imagining what is conceivably possible in the future. I don't have a position in Ethereum (never owned any) nor The DAO, and I'm certainly not "marketing smart contracts". But you seem to insist that none of this is possible for some reason, and from what I can tell it certainly is.

If my interpretation of anything I've read about the technology is wrong though, I'd appreciate the corrections.

To find some common ground we should be able to agree on: how many contracts end up in litigation because one or both parties misinterpret the language of the agreement? Wouldn't it be desirable if there was a system that left no room for misinterpretation?
The idea is awesome, but it sort of loses its usefulness to people who aren't math experts. It's very clear by looking at the website that it's _not_ meant to be a Wikipedia for math. That's definitely not a bad thing, but I think that this website leaves an opening for something conceptually similar (but different in its implementation) that would be a sort of digital pathway through as many math concepts as possible -- for example, you can start on a page formalizing the idea of numbers and click links to navigate to addition, and then later on to multiplication, etc. allowing one to study math from the ground up. Or, you could start at a high-level concept and work your way down to the simple math. The purpose wouldn't be for researchers to better connect math, but for students trying to learn how math comes together in a broader sense. I think that a site like that could serve the same general purpose we see here of collecting math into a big catalog, just in a way that's more friendly to newcomers.

I wonder why people are in such a hurry to teach their children CS/things?
{ rant: `One of my primary complaints from (engineering) school was that we/I never had the time to absorb knowledge and become intuitive with anything (the French engineering school I attended was particularly bad). We were spoon-fed knowledge. In order to sink enough time into a topic and understand the parallels with other things (at least in engineering science/craft) you need a lot of time and focus. This should (must?) not come from discipline but from curiosity. I would argue that (though I am a layman in this subject) adding another exercise to a child's schedule with soccer, birthdays, school, PlayStation, ... doesn't make them more curious. It makes them tired and unfocused just like a grown up if they have too much to do. Give them time to learn and grow instead! Give them the chance to experience mastery and to feel confident, be it playing with rocks in the yard or programming. Let them be bored. Give them time and focus. Do the things you like together so you can share of your experience. If that's is programming then fine, but do it with the tools you like or create so they can see how enthusiastic you are about something. If you like these learning tools, then go for it, but don't force it if you don't. If they are 18 years and still haven't learned to program: relax, there's is plenty of time for that! I suppose this is controversial, but in my experience the hackers that I know learnt coding really young aren't necessarily better than those who learnt it later. Those who have a genuine interest in coding are multiples of their peers.`}
I doubt you need to be that smart to learn a second language. Growing up in Belgium we all started learning our second language at age 10 (some earlier), and a third at age 13. Most people (in Flanders) end up leaving high school speaking Dutch, French and English. Some get German too. It's not always very fluent, but everyone should have basic conversation skills in three languages.

It's a cultural thing more than anything else. Besides children's movies we don't dub anything, we just subtitle. That gives you a lot of exposure to other languages. In theatres movies are even simultaneously subtitled in Dutch and French all over the country, by default.

So considering the amount of people that learn a second language with relative ease, I don't think it has anything to do with being smart or not. You just have to be willing and start young enough.
