I always loved Tomato; ran it on my 54GLs which I still have (though one is pre-L branding).

I had a Cisco E3000 that I tried to love; bought it because it supported DD-WRT so once I got sick of the Cisco firmware I tried DD-WRT. It seemed like an endless headache and never worked quite right, so I flashed back to the stock Cisco stuff; I realized the stock OS supported everything I needed anyway, and was more stable.
I wish consumer stuff had more cool graphs and the like.

"Much of PBS Kids programming . . . will be REMOVED from rival streaming sites like Netflix and Hulu, and will be available only on Amazon Prime."

Oh goody.

So now instead of being able to use Netflix via Apple TV to watch her favorite PBS show my 5 year old is going to have to figure out how to bring up Amazon Prime through the shitty Samsung TV interface.

Or better yet maybe I'll have to buy another device that will be obsolete in a year.

This Amazon / Apple bs war of not supporting eachother's devices has got to stop, it sets a terrible precedence which seem to be aimed at protecting the devices which are so incredibly commoditized!

Apple - please just let us have an Amazon app on Apple TV. Is it such a protective move when I can just airplay prime from an iphone / ipad / macbook to apple tv?

‘Tech tax’: San Francisco mulls plan for taxing the rich to house the poor
This just in: homes connected to roads are not private, court rules.
Honestly, when I'm writing assembly code, my "IDE" is a notebook and pencil. Narrowly ruled paper, so that I can squeeze a lot of lines in, with a line drawn down the middle so that I get two columns: the left column has my code, and the right column holds commentary.

I first started writing code in notebooks due to necessity (I grew up in a poor family, and though I had access to many outdated programming books at my local library, I rarely had access to a computer), but I keep doing it nowadays because it's utterly distraction-free, and being able to scribble notes and diagrams in the code is often convenient.

For assembly language especially, I find the two-column format indispensable. Even when I got to university and took an assembly language class, I would write all my assignments in vim with soft tabstops set to the middle of the screen[1], so that after each instruction, I could hit tab and my cursor would instantly be at the second column for commentary. I know emacs can do something similar, because I managed to get it stuck on in lisp-mode before, and couldn't figure out how to turn it off! :)

[1]:

au FileType asm setlocal sts=38 et " GNU as
au FileType nasm setlocal sts=38 et " nasm

Vim has syntax files for a whole bunch of assembly instruction sets and syntaxes, which I've found handy.

WeddingWire | Washington, DC and New York, NY | ONSITE

WeddingWire, the nation's leading technology marketplace serving the $100 billion wedding industry, is the only online wedding planning resource designed to empower both engaged couples and wedding professionals.

We're hiring for a wide range of tech positions! The list includes Ruby on Rails developers, Android and iOS engineers, UX designers, Project Analysts, and others.

WeddingWire is a fun and dynamic environment, and has been consistently rated a best place to work by a variety of organizations. Please reach out to me if you have any questions - I work in Marketing but I am happy to talk about the company, and the experience I've had here, to the extent that I'm able! My email is nmancini[at]weddingwire[dot]com, and here’s the link to the WeddingWire careers page so you can check out more: http://jobs.weddingwire.com/
Which is generally true. Why is this such an issue. Computer Science PHDs are on average definitely smarter than web developers.

I think this comment and the ones above are a micro example of the politically correct culture we live in. Why cant someone make a statement about the advantages/difference in traits between two groups of people? Is this so dreadful?
I may however, add it to my blog: http://austingwalters.com/

I get a fair number of commenters, so it doesn't seem unreasonable.

In either case, I think this would be better for Github issues. It'll force people to actually know what the hell is going on before they comment.
Cool idea, but I feel like people will use it to make their comment section an echo chamber. For example, if your article is pro-hilary, you are asking Trump fans to acknowledge certain things you said about pro-hilary to be correct before they get to comment. And they mostly likely will not want to do this.
Neither are being bad, but Spotify is clearly trying to force the issue around the App Store generally. Spotify is clearly at fault here (and the way it's been handled in the media suggests some machination, perhaps), but Apple's revenue model with App Store is just as good or bad as it has always been (or maybe better, now that there's the 85/15 split option).

Inkscape - May not be AI but it does a great job for what it is - recent improvements have set it in a class of its own.

Eclipse - slow probably, reliable yes.

Thunderbird - Just works

A Good Text Editor - (choose your flavor) When word processors or other text tools just get in the way - you can clear up a lot of frustration with a decent text editor.

Meld - Great file & directory comparator/text editor

MacOS/OSX - compared to other OSs Mac "just works" (though over the decades it doesn't "just work" always as well as it had - but still "just works" better than most for those not OS savvy.)

Linux - may be a bit of a struggle to get up to speed initially but it doesn't let you down

Ubuntu - Some years are good some are bad but even on the bad years the community support will get you up and running and once you are there you're good for a few years.
Coolshop.com | Full stack developer | Nørresundby, Denmark, On-site only, EU citizen

We're looking for a Django developer or someone willing to learn Django/Python. Experience in React is a plus.

Job posting: https://www.coolshop.dk/minisite/t/jobs#developer (Danish only)
To clarify a question raised in this write-up:

"auto [a , b , c] = getvalues();

"The braces are needed, getvalues returns a tuple. std::pair is not mentioned in the proposal, so its unclear if this works with pair, which is returned by the STL in some insert methods."

Destructured bindings will work with arrays; plain aggregate structs; and any class that offers a specialization of std::get<>(), so both std::tuple and std::pair are supported as a consequence. (C++11 added std::get<>() for std::pair).
I disagree. I mean, yes, it won't spread, but for anyone who cares about not having a blog filed with hate spam / bs from people who didn't actually read the article this is a great idea. It may not fix the internet, but there are some blogs where this could make a huge impact on the mental state of their owners.
Okay talk about ironic. Yesterday in our ops meeting, it came up that some tool another department had built was exporting csv "with extra quotes that were causing problems" (I've had no involvement in any of this). My ears perked up remembering this comment and I was able to point out this RFC, so hopefully it will save them some time in arguing about csv formatting. Thanks!
Most companies don't want to make open/hackable solutions, because it makes the hardware a commodity. After all, they don't make the chips, they probably contract out the PCB design and manufacture or it's at least done via some sort of JDM process.

What's left at that point? Brand, mechanical design, and software... There's not a whole lot to differentiate yourself if you let go of the software piece.
You mean kind of like how Apple asks for preferential treatment from every other entity? You know, for things like:

- Being able to install updates without asking the ISP.

- Fast lanes for their services with ISPs.

- Special or even FREE rent for their physical store fronts (see Grand Central Terminal and many others.)

- Making illegal deals with book publishers so they get preferential pricing. Same for music.

The list goes on and on and on. Apple has always tried to work it so they get preferential treatment from every angle.
Issuer Direct | UI / UX Frontend Engineer | Raleigh / RTP NC | Full-Time ONSITE

We are a small micro-cap public company (NYSE: ISDR) and have been growing steadily since 2006. We specialize in helping other public companies with their compliance and communication needs. As a UI / UX Frontend Engineer, you will be writing web applications that affect how thousands of public companies get their work done and how millions of shareholders interact with those companies.

Issuer Direct has always been on the edge of technology, and we are continuing the trend by adding collaborative features to our customer platform, the Disclosure Management System, and our financial document editor, Blueprint. This presents a unique engineering challenge for the User Experience- collaborative features must be simple and intuitive while enabling users to complete complicated tasks with one another.

The ideal candidate for this position is an mid to senior level frontend engineer who is excited about creating a realtime web experience. This is a full-time position in our Morrisville, NC office in the Research Triangle Park area. You will work closely with backend and full-stack developers in a collaborative workspace. Send applications to me directly at caleb.lloyd@issuerdirect.com
Absent Article 50, surely everything the UK needs to do in the 2 years period would be legal for an EU state, because Greenland managed it? The trick is/was that EU rules (fairly obviously) allow the EU states to negotiate changes to the agreements binding the EU together, including negotiating an exit whereby one of them leaves the EU but retains some access to the internal markets.
Regardless of pricing, this is Windows/Internet explorer vs. Netscape all over. Easy to see Apple introduce features tied to Apple Music that Spotify can't because it doesn't have the same control over iOS
I can only barely follow what's being said, based on by unfamiliarity with the field, but it seems to say "agents used to only be able to choose an optimal strategy if they were competing against agents with less information (less possibly strategies known)[1], but now they have discovered they can formally come to a Nash equilibrium based on the use of something called a reflective oracle."

Basically, two equal level participants should result in a Nash Equilibrium?

1: Except for cases where the set of possible strategies is small, such as the Prisoner's Dilemma. See footnote 1 in the article.
No no no!!

The heinousness of the crime does not justify giving up or overriding Constitutional freedoms. Never. Not ever.

And if anyone is in place to protect us from that level of overreach, it's a judge. I cannot believe he's pulling a "won't someone think of the children!" in justifying (and creating some janky circular logic) this ruling.

The scariest precedent here is the level of crime dictating the flexibility of constitutionality.

I do not disagree that encryption will always exist.

I'm stating that a commercial organization can be held liable and have action taken against it for running a messenger that violates the law of where it operates.

People torrent, but you would not expect a commercial torrent service to last very long if the law prohibits it. The technology can exist, but an entity formed within the framework of a government's regulations (in this case, a company) cannot run it.

Am I wrong?
Better, but in my opinion it should be styled as a button not just text.

It doesn't feel like a part of the tool since it appears outside of the initial box.

I understand you put it outside of the box because it loads more boxes below the entire tool, and now that I know about it it makes "sense." But my initial impression is to ignore anything outside of that box.

I think your best bet for brand spanking new users is to place it as a button inside the box in between the "generate rift" and "play" button to make it stand out.

You're literally hiding 80% of this tool from initial users. I clicked "generate" a few times then bounced at first.

Perhaps. I think the "prevent people from sharing until they know what they are sharing" is the most important part to me. Had a fun time hacking on it today though. Just a little Friday joke.
Not sure if a portable jit-constructed interpreter can reach the performance of the hand-written assembly interpreter of LuaJIT. My assumption is that what makes LuaJIT fast is careful consideration of architecture specific details.

PRL does a fine job of checking scientific soundness, but their assessment of importance/notability is unimpressive, like most processes involving a handful of humans. (I've published there, and it was far from my most notable result.) Lots of boring stuff passes the filter.
Some information about myself: I taught myself every programming language I know. I started with AppleScript back in the late 90s/early 00s, then moved up to Python around 2009. I got into programming through a desire to automate things on my old G4 iMac. Now I enjoy building services to bring people into the digital world.

I believe we should all rather strive for fairness, rather than asking for preferential treatment for the so called "little guys"

If you think about this it's basically the same as saying: We don't want competition, everyone should be a winner. (because you would weaken the big guys to artificially improve the situation for the little guys, even if the big guys didn't play unfair in any way)

This wouldn't ever work as we as a species are competitive by nature.

I also want to note that I would never apply this to all areas of life, I'm talking strictly about competition between businesses. Of course you should help the little guys with a social system if they are unable to survive on their own.
Browser market share in June 2016
It's open enough that direct competitors, like Amazon, for example, can base their own OSs that have their own ecosystems on AOSP.

Google could be more open. But there isn't any evidence the parts of Android that are not open are not open in order to stop open or even competitive semi-closed Android derivatives.

They are open enough enable competitors to use the same technology platform, including some very valuable technologies like the ART compilers. If they intended to lock out competitors, they could easily have done so.
Exactly.

Long term stability, even if programmers/admins complain, is still the best option for a business.

Hobbyists can do whatever they want, a company isn't depending on what they do.
