Politeness is culturally contingent. For example, I have lived in places where making a special effort to hold open doors for women is a social obligation, as well as places where it is deeply offensive.

Is it appropriate sometimes to violate those norms? Certainly, when those norms involve a violation of higher moral principles. Principles such as not saying things you believe to be false.

> How about "polite"?

So, you're saying that people should not openly disagree merely because it is impolite?
It appears to be original to Adams - I've found no earlier references, and every reference I've found is unattributed or explicitly attributed to Adams.

> What I could not stand on Android is the constant display of ads, just everywhere, in every app.

Huh? I have used Android phones for over 5 years and almost never see ads.

Yes, some free apps have ads but you just need to spend a dollar or two to remove them. Developers don't work for free you know. An app doesn't give you that option? Uninstall it. I have two exceptions to that rule because the apps in question are great and the ads are non-intrusive.

Thanks for clarifying.

FWIW, personally, I would refrain from using the word "xenophobic" so readily, especially because of its deeply negative connotations.

In my Berkeley/Texas example, imagine a scenario where the Texas transplants destroyed all their guns, recycled all of their cans of Budweiser, started buying Chimay Ales from the Berkeley Bowl and put Bernie Sanders bumper stickers on their cars. If some long-time Berkeley resident _still_ rejected these erstwhile Texans as outsiders, then I would trot out the label "xenophobe." But probably not before that.
What does that even mean? Have you tried pronouncing any Khoisan languages (or other languages with clicks) for example? If your native language is English, you'll have a much harder time than a native Zulu speaker would have.

Whether a target language is easy to pronounce depends on your native language (and other languages you can pronounce accurately). If you're a native Chinese speaker (whichever variety, but particularly Mandarin), English isn't anything like as difficult as French to pronounce.

And then, sadly, the periodic misogyny-denial post, anti-feminist circle jerk that usually originates on Reddit but then enough people in the Imgur community upvote. This exact thing has made me decide to stop even looking at Imgur. :/
Doesn't matter that you can't cancel in flight packets:

1) because clients throttle connections. Suppose a user wants to navigate, you may need to be able to cancel in flight requests or the next page load might be significantly delayed.

2) file uploads can have potentially gigs of packets that haven't been sent yet, which you definitely need to be able to cancel.

From what I understand, you can't just "go native" from ReactJS because React Native uses specific components for mobile.

While you can't just port over, the way you think about components and your API endpoints can be re-used. It's also nice that they both work with components which allows for less "context switching."

I'm not claiming they aren't, but again, saying "probably" and assuming the iceberg extends equally the whole way down is entirely unsubstantiated.

I was merely saying that name calling and harassment are often completely different mindsets.
I think the argument is more along the lines of: (1) We've tried lots of different programs and wasted lots of money and resources trying to promote marriage; all have been failures, we have no idea how to actually promote marriage. (2) It's not necessary to promote marriage to solve the poverty problem. Thus (3) we should forget about the "marriage promotion" programs as part of the fight against poverty; we can deploy our resources better elsewhere.
Ah, did he mean "SERIAL" as in "BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT UNIQUE" ... and the reason why this locks a table is because the database, on insert, needs to figure out a valid key?
The problem is that there isn’t really such a thing as an “idiomatic React app”. React is just a view-rendering layer with a small API. You have to put together all the other pieces of your application stack…

Too obtrusive... developers have better project options that don't micromanage them. I wouldn't work on a project requiring this.

It seems to be for non-technical remote workers. Programmers should be measured by their product, not their keystrokes and screen activity.
It's fine and good for everyone to claim that the driver must keep alert constantly and it's their responsibility. However, this feature is inconsistent with that statement as it is damned near impossible for most people to stay engaged and alert when they are not actively engaged in a process. This is a known failure of the human brain and in fact is the reason that on road trips I don't use cruz control and tend to speed because when I'm engaged, I'm paying attention.

Strange that you believe any science that's not reproducible is science. Or assume that if the science is not reproduced, it's sciencifically valid.

Science is not a singlar effort, nor is peer review without replication.

Please question your assumptions about what science really is.
Rescale (YC W12) is hiring engineers to work on a cloud back end for simulation
Rescale provides a platform for engineers to run simulations in the cloud. We have some interesting technical challenges and we need people to work on them. Our challenges range from ensuring robust deployments in the face of cloud failures to optimizing the configuration of simulation codes to creating an intuitive interface for complicated simulation setups.

Our software stack is a django api and angular frontend, with a java backend.

We're looking to hire smart, motivated people continually looking to improve their craft. Python experience is a must, and bonus points if you're good at java.

Yes, absolutely; the Imgur community is completely and totally distinct from Reddit (to the point where people bitch about even seeing the reddit stuff! There's even the comment-meme 'roddit pls' etc)

The big question is simply how Imgur will continue to (sustainably) grow that community. This really brings the question back to the very root: "How do we make Imgur the de-facto image hosting/sharing site in the world"
Webpack does a lot more. Gulp is just a glorified (and cross-platform) make.
I hear you. I hate that neither N900 nor Jolla can just have mainline boring Debian with normal boring updates, but instead have to be Frankenstein's monsters filled with proprietary blobs and /opt-ified nonsense. If you do anything slightly strange, apt-get turns dangerous.

I would say to make sure that you have all of the Maemo images saved somewhere, and know where the repos currently reside. I just reimaged another N900 and got it current in order to avoid dealing with its broken USB port, and it's starting to become a bit of an ordeal. t.m.o. is dying...
Most of the logic can be the same. But the UI is different. For the web it uses html elements and for native uses native ios/android elements. Even android and ios are different. That's the biggest advantage if compared to Adobe Cordova. A lot more performant

There was this old thread with an alternative way:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10791018

I tried both but it seems still dead (or t's because I'm on mobile ?).

To be honest I don't think it will either come back. There is such a long trend of getting rid of generic searches that it seems that Google has a very natural incentive to do so.

I wouldn't be surprised that providing non localized search results has a very high cost (be it in performance, ad results or any other metric) on Google's side. It must feel logical in their position to reduce that cost to a minimum.
I wouldn't even classify this as an issue, this is CRUISE CONTROL, not auto-pilot. It's meant to meter your speed not your heading, and the heading is what needed adjusting. Driver was clearly not paying attention or he would've followed the car the Tesla was likely tracking for speed.

I don't think the tech is at fault here at all, if you were using regular cruise control in this scenario nothing would've changed.

I mean if the CC slammed on the brakes every time it passed a bridge pylon or a stationary car THAT would be broken.

It seemed like an interesting way to engage tinkerers/hackers and have people come up with new ideas.

But it didn't take off really much. There is only a small community, and they worked years on a half-decent keyboard. For the rest there are just some LED-based backcovers.

I doubt they will ever try that again.
The problem is that Tesla's taken systems intended as driving assists and branded them using terms like "Autopilot" that imply that a human doesn't need to be in the loop. Then you end up with people who haven't read the manual (because no one actually reads the manual) and let their car ram itself into a parked van because the brakes were "the autopilot's job".

I'm of the opinion that Tesla probably needs to back down on their "autonomous" stuff-- their half-baked semi-autonomous stuff is getting enough bad press that it's going to kill true autonomous tech before it can even make it onto the road.

I specified "private environment" for good reason!

I readily accept that source control needs for large, public projects is unique. I think it's important to recognize that Git was made for a very particular purpose. Other environments, such as private work environments, have very different wants and needs.

Tools, opportunity, and a good social environment are largely a function of money, whether purchased via government programs or bought by individuals themselves with the cash given by the government (I.e basic income, EITC). Marriage alone without that money isn't going to avail those bootstrapping goods to people when they don't have them to begin with.

I'm writing a tutorial right now for testing AngularJS and this is exactly what I'm running into. It's a tutorial but half of my first part is "install this, put this line in this configuration file, install this, add this one here, etc." It's easy to feel like I'm not writing a good tutorial but really that's just the current state of JS development.
Did you read the jacobs link in my post? Economically efficient, sure. Which is fine if the economy is healthy enough that the displaced can continue to find and invent new jobs
I am conflicted about this, and see merits on both sides of the argument on Thiel's actions. So I tried to draw an analogy:

Let's say that there is some patent troll that only extorts money from small startups, who don't have the resources to fight back. Some billionaire of today, who in his past career was harassed by this patent troll, decides (both for revenge and for the greater good in his opinion) that the patent troll should die and secretly starts backing startup lawsuits against the troll.

1/ Is this a fair analogy?

2/ Is the press "special" and hence we cannot use analogies from other industries?

3/ People who disagree with Thiel's actions, would you feel similarly against the billionaire above?
Signalling the car "yes, I'm in control" is a good and only solution, however, tapping the brakes is (a) definitely not the only way to signal that; (b) not a intuitive way to do that if you really want to make this signal but aren't sure how; (c) not a safe interpretation, as it's likely that people will tap the brake with other intent than the signal "it's ok, I got this".

An appropriate way to signal it would be distinct from any emergency controls and also show a highly visible signal that you've turned the system off and are in a different "mode"; even a simple separate dashboard switch with a light would be better for it than the brake pedal.
I guess I meant more from a ease of use point of view. Gulp/Grunt are easier to configure and get going.

If you're a consultant or you work in a consulting firm I have some advice for you.

Get comfortable with fudging the numbers on your time reports. It's ok. Report what's reasonable given:

You aren't being paid for your minutes you're being paid for the ability to solve a customer's problem in minutes.

I bill my clients 40 no matter what because sometimes I give them 100 hours worth of value in 1 hour. It all balances out. It took a while to realize this wasn't an integrity violation.

You aren't a machine resource. You're a human working in immense complexity. Your productivity is a roller coaster. It's ok. Don't sell minutes. In reality your customer can't handle the unpredictablity in billable hours if you were exacting and billed what you're actually worth. Instead we smooth it into 40 (or whatever), and that's ok.
It's like looking at mentions of the n-word and coming to the conclusion that NWA is the more racist than the KKK.

Oof - seems like you're running on a managed platform that can't be debugged in a reasonable level of detail?

If it were me I'd want to take the problem somewhere I _could_ get root access and debug it properly. So I'd be interested to know what value this (unnamed) CI platform provides to make it worth a wild goose chase.
Just something to consider. I wouldn't mention when you're planning on increasing the price. Just that the price is going to go up "soon". Now I know I have a whole month to put off buying it and may forget about it in that time period.

That being said, I'll be buying it. It's a great app and well worth the price.

I actually like cruise control, since it's use case is very specific, and always works: keeping a certain speed.
I think it gets squeezed even more with general purpose GPU computing.
What is the dark pattern that Imgur is doing?
What we have here, is a car that behaves like a T-Rex. It can see and react to moving obstacles, but as soon as something stands still, it loses all perception.

In all seriousness, how is this an issue at all?

It clearly sees obstacles (like a wall in a curve) and takes corrective action. How does it not do something (if even just applying the brakes) when there's an obvious obstruction right in front of it?

You can set idle per-category. "Videos & TV" category is idle by default.

So if you have Youtube open and there's no mouse/keyboard input then Qbserve assumes you're watching a video.
The first two reasons alone were conflating correlation and causation, without even citing the statistics that they are claiming as causal. To top it all off, most of them are just stereotypes, so I'm even more suspect of the underlying justification that the video creator is using. I don't think the point that is being made is all wrong, but I don't agree with the evidence being used to support it.
I generally agree with your post, but this part:

"they provide literally no benefit to society"

broadly could apply to lots of industries. Movies, TV, pro sports, music, tourism, etc. People will take issue with the inclusion of some of these, but that's the point: "no benefit to society" is entirely subjective. Another way to look at it is the benefit to society is "fun", and that people value fun things.

So while I am in general agreement overall, I think it's not really fair to single out tech companies for being exceptionally efficient at providing the "fun" benefit to society.
"It depends". Some services are insensitive to pauses of several minutes (email processing; you may not want it there all the time but spikes to that level are often acceptable). Some services are sensitive to pauses in the single-digit milliseconds (for instance trying to maintain a high frame rate).
What people refer to as boilerplate for setting up React, including in this article, is about installing and configuring node modules, build systems and other tools. React itself is just two modules (React, React-DOM.)
Phabricator does this, effectively. The Diff URL is in the commit message for the squashed commit to master; you can go there and see all its constituent commits in their gory detail.
I totally agree. I'm curious to see the statistics as the marketing of "semi-autonomous" vehicles gets more widespread, but I suspect there is a dangerous sweet-spot of capability of semi-autonomous vehicles.

My concern is that semi-autonomous vehicles become good enough that humans trust them to drive (that is, people consider the vehicle to be driving rather than providing an aide to driving such as automatic-shifting, and standard cruise-control); yet not so capable as to be a true autonomous vehicle. Do these features simply making driving safer across the board, or is there a point where the human stops taking responsibility and accidents increase?

You've hit several good points here! This looks really cool. I've never used something like this, but I'm seriously considering buying it. I love the single price up front and the privacy of not sending my tracking data to some unknown server on the internet.

My only complaint is that I absolutely hate the name. I don't even know how to pronounce it. "Cube-serv?" "Queue Observe?" Don't make me think. Also, I'd be embarrassed to try to say the word to someone else when telling them about it. "Looks like a really cool app! What's it called?" "Oh, it's um... Q... Uh... Cube..., uh I don't know. I have to go." And even if I could pronounce it, trying to spell it for someone so they can look it up. Ugh. Forget about it.
Thank you, I think there's enough data collected to produce invoices for clients, we just need to decide how to organize per-client activity management in the UI.
> the history is littered with utter garbage commits like the following: "commit this before I get on the plane" "whoops, make this compile" "WTF?"

You have a problem with commits here, not the lack of squashing. A messy history is only messy if you make it so.

> These add no benefit to history, and actually provide an impediment to bisecting (since a lot of these intermediate revisions will not even compile).

This is also a problem---every commit should compile, even if only for precisely the reason of bisecting.

Squashing commits is avoiding the problem; instead, perhaps educate the others on proper practices for committing, and enforce those practices.
