I'm a full stack that is now 'Product Engineer', so both PM and SE. My company moved me to that position from just an SE because I was having major disagreements with how Product Management was being handled in our team.

At first they put me to full time PM, then I wanted to get back to doing some code. I felt a bit lost as a full time PM at first, but after about 6 months, I'm getting used to it and suspect in the next year I'll be moving away from code as our product grows.

If you have the opportunity to do PM work in your current team, I highly recommend it.

So, would I hire a SE as a PM, I'd more likely hire the SE as a PE, or SE and try transitioning them if that is what they want. No guarantee they'd be good at it though.
At least they have the red icons ready ( <span class="serviceoutage"></span> to see what it looks like)
Isn't this kind of the opposite of that? You're jumping to a position further in the code, to a "variable" that hasn't been defined yet.

I can't believe I'm about to talk about breast feeding on hacker news but here goes.

> there are benefits to both the mother and the child when breastfeeding directly

There is data that points this in both directions, and there isn't a lot of agreement in any of it. There is a push for "brest is best", and a LOT of that is based on W.H.O recommendations. These are a direct result of Nestle pushing formula in the third world, and the impact it had on infant mortality.

If you live in a place without clean water, then breast feeding is the way to go. This assumes you don't have any communicable diseases, AIDS being the biggest one, but it is a large list of infections that preclude you from breastfeeding.

If you live in a first world country, and have access to clean water, and the facility to clean and sterilize bottles, there isn't a BIG gain that is universally agreed on in the research available.

C++ has lots of issues, most of them due to backward compatibility and versatility. Also, the language is very complex and enormously hard to master. I've used C++ for quite a while and everybody I know who used the language for at least a few years have developed a love&hate relationship for this language, or abandoned it.

I know it's boring and very, very hard work. Which is why I believe that we should support stay at home moms (and dads) by elevating the position in society and recognizing the hard and rewarding work it is. Going back to a career and paying someone to take care of your child is quite frankly the easy way out.

Women leaving the workplace to raise kids should be seen as a victory, not a "problem" that needs to be fixed. It's definitely not easy though and all of this media broadcast negativity surrounding being a parent instead of having a career can't make it any easier.
Hey, I did my MA thesis on Soeech Act Theory!
This was a much more powerful reason before things like docker became common, and methodologies adapted to provide updates for docker images, which for this purpose are functionally identical to a static binary.

At least I hope "methodologies adapted", I don't use docker images, so that's an assumption on my part, but I feel it's a fairly safe bet.
By that logic any effective weapon lowers the bar to entry. Should we equip our troops with bronze spears?

I think I understand the eager confusion. You mean eager because it is a push model and not a pull model like iterator which is lazy.

They are eager once Subscribed. The lazy part that I and the previous poster was alluding to is that most observables do nothing till they are subscribed to unless they are hot where as a Promise and Future are executed/scheduled immediately and the value is pushed/pulled (respectively).

I totally agree that Observables are not that great for backpressure but really there isn't a silver bullet on that one regardless (many smart people have tried to come up with solutions that will work across domains but have failed). As you mentioned you just have to pick the right tool for the job/requirements. I for one prefer a broker ACK model like RabbitMQ but many do not like queues as it just shoves the problem some where else.
Douglass Hoffstadter wrote about consciousness like this in many of his metamagical themas columns. By analogy he mused that consciousness might arise as a higher level construct which would watch and supervise lower level functions. While he didn't really bother to develop his arguments too far the articles all had a very enjoyable Hosffstadterian writing style that made them a real pleasure to read.

Is it possible for me to "get" snapchat if none of my friends are using it?
If so, how?
Yea, I noticed the same thing. At first, it seems weird and a little confusing, but rapidly becomes very intuitive, as it's actually designed for vertical mode. It didn't really click with me until my sister and her friends finished college and started hanging out around me more often, but it's become arguably my favorite social app

You can do this with xargs -P (with GNU xargs at least). I often use the pattern:

do_one_thing() {
local arg=$1
... do stuff with $arg
}

do_with_limited_parallelism() {
cat things-to-do.txt | xargs -P 10 -n 1 -- $0 do_one_thing "$@"
}

"$@"

That limits the number of concurrent processes, which is almost always good enough for limiting the number of concurrent downloads. If you have really tiny downloads, then the overhead of starting a connection per process may matter. In that case it's easy to do more than one download per process with say -n 50 instead of -n 1.
These things are always funny to me. By the third or so release, it'll be just as easy to write your own script than to learn how to use this.
In Ken MacLeod's novel "The Execution Game", which featured some amateur espionage and OPSEC tactics as plot elements, there was a specific marque of makeup that was known to throw off the facial recognition algorithms in play.

One reason nursing has a substantially lower median salary is that it's largely women. You might be interested in the median salary of male nurses.
It mostly came down to flexibility. The original form of our monitoring did do basically what you suggest, "one node failure is ok, two is not", but we found that was not good enough. That approach in our experience was:

1. Noisy. We had a lot of large deployments where they had high replication factors (e.g. RF=5 or 7) and they very much didn't care if 2 nodes failed, or 3, or even 4. They had the high replication factor for resilience to multiple rack failures and didn't want to get paged by a few racks failing.

2. Hard to generalize, especially with multi-tenant clusters. Size of cluster != replication of keyspaces. For example if we had a 50 node cluster, but had a keyspace with RF=1, a single node failure should be a pageable event. Why is there a RF=1 keyspace ... because devops means that developers sometimes do things like that.

3. Had poor attribution. If you have a large cluster with many keyspaces, one of which has a lower RF than the rest or a higher consistency level, then only the owner of those keyspaces care if we lose a node or two. When we're dealing with an incident we can rope in the teams owning specifically the keyspaces that are under-replicated so they can take appropriate action.

To be totally honest, mostly it just helps us find keyspaces that have low RF ... The number of times we found out the new Cassandra version we just deployed added another system table that had a SimpleReplicationStrategy with default replication of 2 ...
So, basically the same reasons why I'd never step into a teleporter :)
The part of Snapchat that is social is entirely dependent on having active friends on it. Part of what got me into the app daily was the branded stories. They are exactly the right length for me to get a short update on things that happened the day before or learn something new during my commutes. I find myself looking forward to when I have new ones to read.
How so? The jump function has access to the entire script source code via parameter $0. It finds whatever label is referenced, and trims the script from there, executing it. This looks like it will jump backwards and forwards. Unfortunately, it chews up stack and memory with each jump, so a loop with many iterations is a bad idea.

Having used Qlik Sense on a daily basis, the shortcomings with UI/UX can be overcome by creating your own D3 visualizations and custom mashups in JavaScript. They also have an open source community which is slowly closing this gap.

The power of the product over its competitors is really the in-memory API engine. I think they should now just focus on getting Qlik Sense enterprise ready as the server deployment still needs improvement.
Exactly, even if you have nothing to hide you can be embarrassed by things out of your control (maybe you caught a bug and throw up on a stranger).

Yea, this is something they really need to work on. It's pretty difficult to discover a public Snapchatter you'd want to follow
On Snapchat, your 'feed' contains only thumbnails, you have to consciously decide to consume it (per each user, although they recently changed this to an autoplay-all-others-after-first-click which somewhat undermines my point), so they pique your curiosity and tease you into consuming it.

On Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. your feed is the sum of all content, so it's immediately apparent if it's empty or underwhelming.

What? Twitter has become the dominant platform for breaking news. It's also got a decent number of niche communities (I'm pretty active in NBA Twitter, for example).
This is really, really common the world of internet marketing. If you need a great example, well, there's a reason 'expert roundups' are one of the in things at the moment. Why bother actually trying to gain any expertise when you can approach people more popular/famous than you and aggregate the results in a mostly empty fluff article?

And by the time it reaches the internet forums (the Digitalpoint/Warrior Forum kind), it usually ends up coming down to something akin to 'Step 1, find fame. Step 2, write eBook. Step 3, sell to suckers on internet forums'.
You may say that, but I've literally never met anyone who thought that consciousness in a computer might arise in any other way than how you've described.

I agree with your cynicism.

I have no problem with snapchat per se, one of the most brilliant things about it is that it recreates the ephemerality the world has always known, which for some reason the internet pioneers got in their brain needed to be replaced by archivalism that defined the first 30 years of the public internet. It's actually quite brilliant to bring this sort of casual conversation to a social network, and it's obvious why it resonates with teenagers as it reflects the social nature that teenagers' lives have always had.

My problem is just with the addictive nature of apps in general. Facebook is probably a worse violator than Snapchat, but in the end all popular apps by definition sort of have to do this. Call me a hypocrite since I've been obsessed with computers and tech my whole life, but something about this makes me so sad. I hope we can live in a future where we are not all glued to our phones all the time.
xargs -P is great and I have used it often for quick parallelization. The problem I had was that the crawler would recursively invoke itself while crawling the (possibly unbalanced) tree so xargs wouldn't have worked.
How about a while true loop with cases in it on a state variable.

code for label 42

You don't have the syntactic sugar here, and there are some inconveniences, but think of the positives: this does not claim a new stack frame for each jump, let a lone a new stack frame holding a big string variable that holds most of the script source code.

Not sure it's as trivial as you seem to be implying, but extending this to more drivers would certainly be a logical next step.

I agree that good intentions can have bad consequences, but in this particular case I'd say the bad consequences were easy to predict before the attempt was made. It's possible to remove ideas that are obviously bad to make problems less likely.

>> So you think that there are more incapable women than men in the world?

Incapable of what? Never once did I say women are incapable of either career or motherhood. Women can efficiently do what they choose to. Juggling many roles on the other hand is hard for any human being (regardless of gender)

>> Women are capable of working in fields like tech through pregnancy. We have breast pumps and formula. If you're going to complain about maternity leave, why is the man not taking paternity leave to help his partner and bond with his child?

Who said that man doesn't want to take a paternity leave? Every single recent father I know wants to take time off to bond with the kid. Unfortunately, he can't without a cut in pay (in the US). Get this law in and you'll see so many fathers doing it.

>> Why does it have to be the man making all of these decisions? Why can't both partners work together ot support a child?

It is always a partnership. Only a partnership works. More often than not, partnership == compromise from all parties involved to WIN.

If you were a basketball watcher, you'd know that not everyone can play point guard even if they want to. Only one person plays that role and the remaining support that person. Why? So that the team wins.

In a baby-making situation, WIN = produce a healthy baby and have enough resources for its upbringing and the mother's safety.

With this definition of WIN, a man/woman who only wants selfish desires and doesn't care for the partner or the kid is a subhuman being. Sorry. You both need to be less selfish here for the sake of the kid.

>> Why is motherhood in the ridiculous, rigid way that we see it today a given? The thing is, given attitudes like yours (which are emblematic of societies) you're presented a false dichotomy of "career-woman" or the martyrdom of modern motherhood.

Fine. Do both jobs half-heartedly. Anybody who has been a successful mother knows that it is HARD. If you think it just "happens" you're badly mistaken.

"Facial obfuscation can and will be a thing"

Princess Bride called it.
Here's the thing: it simply isn't possible that TeamViewer has done a thorough security audit in such a short amount of time. That means their claims of "no breach" are knee-jerk reactions, not truthful statements.

A company that has such a reaction is more likely to suffer a breach IMHO because it demonstrates a lack of knowledge, care, or both. If they were smarter they'd say they aren't aware of anything but have launched an investigation and will report back when it is complete.

So I'm going to assume they have been hacked until someone proves otherwise.
