Theory Lags Practice
The key thing is knowing when to turn around. I've taken some drives out into the Mojave and Death Valley that weren't all that smart in a 2wd sedan, but I also turned around the instant the road made me feel uncomfortable. And I had a couple pallets of bottled water in my trunk, but I always do. Calculated risks.

Still, it can be really hard to turn around when you're far enough in to be "committed" to the road. Sunk costs and all that.
Firefox, Ubuntu 16.04, HP Zbook 15 (G1) with a 1080p display (not the DreamColor one). I do see the differences in all the images with the exception of Shoes, Flowers and Rose. I remember that Ubuntu installed a color profile but I don't know if it's calibrated for my screen.
Nice to know that I have an above average display.

I'm sure there are some sleazeball companies that do but I don't believe this sort of unspoken policy has any significant prevalence.

If you name names, I can determine truth independently. If you don't feel comfortable doing so, that's okay too. I just won't know. And that's not the end of the world.

I always thought the masculine pronoun was used when talking about people as a collective since we sometimes refer to ourselves as "mankind". They do that in this document, so we thus use "men", "he" etc to be consistent.

I wouldn't use "she" as a collective noun unless I also used a more neutral "humankind" or something. But really I prefer to use "they".

I suppose the time at which the US constitution was written was much more sexist than it is now, but I always thought it read fairly neutrally.
it's absurd in any practical sense. but it's a great story to keep the rank and file mostly satisfied most of the time.

politics in the end is a part of life; it should not dominate or overshadow goal oriented work, but it is a natural, unavoidable consequence of people holding different viewpoints.

on the other hand, all the openness strategies they suggest are great, and these do work well in practice to mitigate conflict [but politics does not equal conflict].
You can find a lot of other courses if you poke around the net. For example, 6.005 - Elements of Software Construction is "As taught in 2011" on OCW [1], but you can find the latest notes here [2]. The content hasn't changed a lot since 2011 though, and the changes are mostly in the order of which the content is presented. As a side note, this is is easily the best course out there for novice/intermediate programmers. No videos though.

Another great course (started it yesterday) is 6.172 Performance Engineering of Software Systems [3] and it also has videos available.

All in all, there are a lot of great courses for any level of experience/knowledge. It's best that you check them out and see what you like yourself. This [4] is the list of all the EE/CS subjects that are offered on OCW. Some of them have videos, others don't. Note however, that almost all of them have comprehensive lecture notes and if you get stuck, you can always look for more information elsewhere. Finally, if you want to check what they offer every semester, see here [5] (note: their EE/CS courses start with 6).

There are some arXiv overlays for voting and comments, like: https://scirate.com/ (which didn't catch for some reason).

While I was initially for having arXiv with more features, now I appreciate this unix philosophy of "doing one thing, but doing it well". Various voting, comment, recommendation or accreditation system may catch or not. So I am all in favor of providing a separate services (even if by the same team), communicating by API.

A couple of us from Prometheus met with Josef from Chronix last week. I haven't tried Chronix yet, but it sounds great for what they're doing. It's currently used for industrial manufacturing monitoring (think car production lines), with a focus on offline anomaly detection. However, there are no live queries yet - it's more about offline number crunching and storing all data points forever. They are also Prometheus users, so they're interested in having Prometheus as a live monitoring system and feeding long-term data into Chronix once the interfaces for that in Prometheus become available.
Firefox has the same bug.

It has a non-default hidden option where you could previously set it to work correctly, but that option stopped working some time ago (at least on OS X).

Chrome has had this bug filled 7 years ago, and they kept ignoring it (although it's a very popular bug, people complain about it all the time). It drives me insane.

Basically I am forced to run Safari, although I'd very much prefer to use an open source browser.
Only late Retina display may have a wide enough gamut, so it's still possible that Firefox throws away the color profile (and therefore shows both reds as different, yet inaccurate), while Safari handles it (and therefore collapses the reds to 255).

"Debugging" color settings is tricky, because it can be hard what goes wrong along the chain, and what you end up observing may be counterintuitive.

EDIT: I observe the same behaviour than you on my early 2013 13" Retina MBP. Firefox seems to ignore the color profile on the red image while every other app doesn't (including downloading the image and using Preview). Other images, notably the Iceland one, highlight that my screen does have a wider gamut in some color areas, maybe just not in the red.
Show HN: GrokBB – My Reddit Alternative
https://www.grokbb.com

I have spent the last year building GrokBB, a Reddit alternative, and I was wondering what you guys think?

The site is not a news aggregator, like Reddit, but built more along the lines of traditional bulletin boards. Its focus will be on supporting and promoting niche communities, by giving them proper tools to manage their users and organize / produce high quality, original content. There is no voting system, and popularity is determined by what users actually do on the site. As well, there is a way for the moderators in a community to promote valuable users by giving away badges and / or points that increase their reputation on the board.

Some additional highlights ...

- Create Sticky and Private Topics

- Send Board Announcements To All Subscribed Users

- Built-In Category System for Organizing Topics

- Use Tags To Create Your Own Filtering System

- Extensive Moderation Tools (including banning users)

- Users Can Subscribe, Search, Sort and Filter Topics

- Create Badges and Customize Your Own Branding

- Access to User / Board / Topic Analytics

Anyway, I was hoping maybe some of you could give the site a shot, maybe create a few communities and let me know what you think! Owning a board will eventually require a paid subscription, and so I will be giving out extended and / or free subscriptions to anyone who provides valuable feedback or bug reports at this early stage.

If you're interested, you can see the roadmap I have planned out or suggest new features in the GrokBB Dev board.

Let me correct your numbers. For 1500€ monthly net your employer will pay about 3000€ (~20% income tax + ~30% social security). Multiply by 14 (Yes there are 14 salaries in a year. Don't ask.) and the yearly gross is 42000€.

Hi, I'm looking for an internship (6 months/February) as a software developer & data-science, preferably in SF. Shoot me an email!
It makes sense to use AWS because it's convenient + cost-effective (maybe?) to setup a cloud server. It then makes sense to use their services because again it's convenient. Basically the simplicity of the platform get's you there and now all these other benefits are attractive because it's simple and works out of the box.

So what I think the strategy to do would be to solve a basic problem that gets everyone to your platform and then start adding services to it.

Amazon started the cloud server as a business model because they needed a way to monetise all the additional infrastructure they had lying around on the off seasons. People started using it which gave them insight into the other problems users had and they went about solving those.
As a 18-old Polander I was absolutely thrilled to work part-time for a US company. In hindsight, it was also much more valuable for me than academic education I pursued later.

I would be offended if someone called this child labour and attempted to limit this opportunity.

Err, I have no idea what you saw, but it definitely wasn't your browser being redirected to PayPal - unless you somehow accidentally clicked on the "Donate" button.
To the best of my knowledge, the only Apple devices with wide-gamut displays are the 2015 iMac and the 2016 9.7" iPad Pro. So I'd suspect that Firefox is either ignoring the color profiles, or handling them differently than Safari.

>> I said no such thing, you are putting words in my mouth.

I was replying to someone else and you jumped in. You can hold the accusations of putting stuff in places, thank you.

>> What I said is that the baseline for traffic deaths is quite high, and if (or when) autonomous cars are even a little better than humans, then less lives will be lost.

And I said that autonomous cars being better than humans is just a hypothetical.

I'll add that we have no evidence that it's the case. Computers are better at humans at tasks that require fast and accurate retrieval, or computation, but they'll not just magically become better than humans at driving. Somebody has to program them to do that.

So who is going to do that? Do you know how to do that? Do you know anyone who knows how to do that?

The theory is that we'll put enough (real or virtual) cars in enough training situations that they'll learn to drive on their own, but that approach has serious limitations, not least the fact that in the real world there may be an infinite number of situations that a learner will never encounter during training. In any case, with any other cognitive task that we train computers to carry out they end up making completely ridiculous mistakes, which in the case of driving will cost lives.

Until we have a way to develop systems that understand their surroundings, autonomous cars being better drivers than humans is just a dangerous fantasy.
Why CloudFormation is better than Chef and Puppet
Sounds like a pretty great scam to me. Open a casino with a "broken" game in an easy regulatory jurisdiction (lots of these, most of them are in places with beaches, too), wait for the vultures to descend with their millions in illegal deposits routed from the US via various dodgy places and then just disappear knowing there is virtually no legal recourse for the people who lost money.
Actually pronouns is a more serious issue than what the profile pic feminist (Anita S.) actually complains about in real life, such as lack of men butts in videogames[0] (no, I'm not joking)

People can and do learn foreign languages you know. Also, for many positions just knowing English will do initially.
Update: hold the press. Someone above posted a link to this wikipedia article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_motor_vehicle_deaths_i...

From which I quote:

The number of deaths – and deaths relative to the total population – have declined over the last two decades. From 1979 to 2005, the number of deaths per year decreased 14.97% while the number of deaths per capita decreased by 35.46%.

So at least the rate of fatalities is decreasing. I won't claim I know whether that's because humans get better at driving, carse get safer, traffic regulations get safer, or any other factor, but the point is roads are getting safer already and without any autonomous vehicles on them.

[Original bit:]
Again- based on what? Why do you say that? What is even your measure of humans getting "better"? Better at what? Better drivers? Better cognitive systems? Better what?
Leaving the interesting article aside for a moment, the page has an insane weight of fixed tool/menu/other bars. On my small laptop screen they account for 24% of the whole viewport height. Who thought that's a good idea?
Local people will hardly ever buy a property within Lisbon center. Advantageous tax and citizenship acquiring policies for foreigners drived prices extremely high. Suburbs are the only solution as soon as you get a family and renting a room is not an option anymore.

Even renting is way harder right now. Landlords prefer to rent central properties via AirBnb than to make cheaper long term contracts.
> the only Apple devices with wide-gamut displays are the 2015 iMac and the 2016 9.7" iPad Pro

Correct; this was mentioned several times at WWDC.
I read about DSC a while ago, and it sounds very appealing.

So far, though, I have not managed to actually get to know it personally, so to speak.

We have over the past two years tried to move as much of the configuration as possible to GPOs, although they bring their own share of problems. On Unix-like systems, one can use log files to track down problems most of the time, on Windows it seems like logging is kind of an afterthought. I especially hate it when gpresult says it did apply a certain setting when upon inspecting the system the setting clearly has not been applied (or overriden by something else? Who knows?).

It is frustrating because GPOs seem like such a great idea in theory.
Oh, I'm not talking about pronouns, but about the underlying ideas, and the disregard for women as independent citizens. For example, the 19th Amendment was passed less than a century ago. And there's Scalia's argument[1] that the 14th Amendment doesn't prohibit discrimination by gender or sexual orientation; we find the implications appalling, but was he wrong?

In any case, it's mostly a matter of having caution when reading these works, since their importance might cloud our judgment.

Yes, it happens. In any case 500 millions of people have spanish as native language in the world so "mandatory" is a relative term. You will need chinese to work in China, and spanish or portuguese to work in South-America.

If you don't speak Catalan and live in Cataluña you just will never finish the middle school. Or if you want to work for the administration you will be ostracised or directly banned for working for the public, just because you are "an subhuman stubborn charnego". If you born in Euskadi and then go to Barcelona for work, you need to be able to speak fluently four languages (spanish, english, vasque and catalan) just to start talking about having a job. If this guy move to Galicia later, will need to learn the Galizian language also.

Oh, If your foreign language in the middle school was french, and a lot of spanish people still studied french in this generation, you will not graduate unless you speak French. If you want as adult to work for a german company you will need a little deutsch of course to be competitive in the job interview.

But the worst stupid thing is that most of the time to be fluent or not is not necessary at all for the job because some kind of problems can be solved in any language and because human brain can fill the communication gaps easily. Is just that is trendy to ask for this.

For some jobs you will need to be "fluent" also in more languages: C, Ruby, Java, Python... Don't worry. They still will say that you are "unskilled" and will want to pay you in peanuts.

> ... you only need to solve the problem for your application, and using that knowledge can often lead to more efficient solutions...

this ! _exactly_ this :) imho, the fundamental re-architecture of I/O subsystem for x86 machines has kind of relegated this playing field now to mostly solving _only_ s/w problem, rather than a combination of h/w and s/w.

for example, earlier if you wanted to write a very high performance node in, say the epc-core e.g. SGW/PGW/MME etc. you would assemble a bunch of folks with very diverse set of expertise. right from h/w i/o subsystem designers who could do npu's, switch-fabrics etc. to driver dudes, to 'infrastructure' folks to application programmers etc. etc.

in the current incarnation, a vanilla off the shelf x86 machine is more than sufficient. and if your s/w architecture is _right_, you can scale quite easily.

>>If, say, a Software Architect and a Senior Director have the same pay and the same perks and the same bonus structure, and it really does take a talented person the same amount of time to climb that high from (say) Software Engineer and Manager, then they're parallel.

I have a doubt: "the same pay and the same perks" things seem okay but "the same bonus structure" seems difficult to understand.

A manager has more visibility, more access to business info then he/she will have more chance to be eligible to "bonus" than an engineer has.

So, it'd great if you elaborate on how a Software Engineer and a supposedly equal Manager can have "the same bonus structure".
My "arbitrary boundary" is my country and consists of citizens of my country, whether they're indigenous or not. If you like seeing an underclass being manufactured in your country due to the profit maximisation of businesses then that's your problem.

Spain has 50% unemployment for under 30's. This is a national disaster and will have effects that last generations, and companies that operate within the country should be mandated to address it.
