Although, did you get any of the other legitimate mic's to work? Its possible that the device has a serial number burred in one of the USB descriptors and is using the mic like a hardware dongle (or worse a robust DRM scheme).

But, if you hack the binary, its probably worthwhile to spend a little extra time and completely remove the id check. That way you can use any random mic you find.

Throughput of integer operations ranges between 25% and 100% of floating point FMA performance. 32-bit bitwise AND, OR, XOR throughput is equal to 32-bit FMA throughput.
It doesn't even support hot reloading. No config means they can make assumptions about how things work which makes it really to share solutions for things like "optimize this for prod" or other use cases that are typically a lot of work for your custom setup.

However, I predict that there will be a softer escape hatch than "eject". At least a single option to take the webpack and config and whatever you want with it, at your own peril. This would be completely unnecessary unless you really Know What You're Doing.
They could be in the marshmallow manufacturing business for all I care, if it's not their core competency they'll suck at it. (There are a lot of third party ad-tracking/online surveillance companies to be more worried about since that's their entire bread and butter.)
Very true. Like buying from IBM will never get you fired, neither would hiring from Google (though they may start to change in their case.)

Certainly it's easier to look at education, corporate brand as signaling than to really dive into someone's skills and capacity to be successful.
AMD GPUs have a reputation for speedy integer operations, which are essentially bit-wise operations, so they are often chosen for bitcoin mining. So you might want to consider learning OpenCL, since CUDA runs only on NVidia cards.
“create-react-app” and the future of creating React Applications
> I enjoy braised vegetables cooked so that there are varying levels of doneness throughout.

Yes! A common technique among more advanced cooks is to add the same spice multiple times through the cooking process. Spices (and other ingredients) change in flavor in response to heat, so you end up getting several different flavors even though they come from the same original ingredient.

My favorite example of an ingredient that works like this is onions. A fresh onion is super crunchy and so pungent it literally makes your eyes water. Simmer it for hours and you've got French onion soup—something so soft and sweet it's practically a dessert.

That's all the onion changing in response to heat. When you use an onion, you aren't selecting an ingredient. You get to select any precise point on that continuum between sharp and soft that you want, just based on when you put it in.

Even with the same recipe, I'll vary it up each time I make it based on how I'm feeling. Sometimes I want my farmer's omelette to have some crunch and tang so I cook the onions less. Other times I want it smooth and savory so I cook them more.

(And, of course, once you take into account cooking temperature—slow and low versus hot and fast, and how finely you chop them—thickness effects how different the inside and outsides of each piece cook are—you realize even a single ingredient gives you a multi-dimensional space to explore).
I'm not convinced that bucket 1 is bad for the ecosystem.
Don’t Fall for Pokémon Malware
I think the idea is that the programming model is not much different from what we've all been doing on multicore for a while now already. Sure there'll be evolution, but it's not nearly as different as GPU compute. Also, I personally am hoping that concurrent algos will be much better suited to this than matrix-based GPUs which are basically good for massively parallel floating point only. For example, I'd love to see how a big fat BEAM VM will work on this, not to mention golang. IE I'm actually thinking that Knight's Landing will open up an oblique space where new things are possible, while not losing too much ground on the basic idea of the GPU which is masses of dumb floating point performance.

Even in Python. Imagine firing up a 288-hardware-core Multiprocessing pool using a AVX-512 enabled Numpy...without changing your code. Personally that's numerical porn for me and I want Intel to shup up and take my money, now.
He probably doesn't mean that he is simply reencoding his already lossy OGG files with OPUS.
> Some features, such as testing, are currently missing. This is an intentional limitation, and we recognize it might not work for everybody.

With Ember CLI you get a great testing setup with Qunit. While I prefer Mocha over Qunit, I'm at least glad that testing is a first class citizen in the CLI.
Paying $250 for a Windows license is still less money than they're going to pay for a new Mac. Macs are very expensive.

And even so, lots of people have software that isn't compatible with Macs (or Linux for that matter).

I'm honestly curious what would happen if MS decided one day to jack up their Windows license costs to, say, $1000 per copy. Or what about $500? Would their revenue go up or down? Obviously, some people would switch to something else, a bunch more would just stick with what they have, but people do buy new computers now and then, and businesses are always refreshing. Combine this with "updates" to existing Windows versions to make them slower and slower and slower (like iOS does) to force people to get new versions of Windows, and it seems to me MS would probably make a lot more money by gouging customers as much as they can.
That is just the "current" debt. They also have almost $15B in long-term liabilities, primarily $13.5B in deferred tax payments and $1.2B in general long-term debt.
Twitter Is Running Out of Time to Get Real About Fighting Abuse
It sounds like you can't afford to NOT spend $1000 per year on email.
BitTorrent is decentralized with lots of clients and tons of users. Users of GUI clients usually download a Torrent file, see what files they're getting, uncheck any they don't want, hit OK, wait a while, and stop it when finished. Change the download directory in preferences like most of their other apps but has sensible default usually. Opposite of all your points about Slack yet still super-easy-to-use due to good UX.

See how your centralization point was pushing your ideology instead of apparent claim that Slack was only good due to centralization?

"You know, it's not that open source devs are elitist, but they have a history of writing code for people that are the 10% technically elite. It's not that they're smugly arrogant, but rather, IRC does the job they need it to."

Oh no, he's right. Ask them to change anything to something easier. It took quite a while to get the GUI clients that simplified key steps. They were insistent on forcing people to learn and memorize commands instead of menus with obvious options. They certainly could've improved look-ups and had "save to favorites" earlier in usable form. They didn't care because they were elitist.

Now, I'd consider a different explanation if tech people weren't doing same thing for UNIX commands, GUI configuration, installers, incomprehensible-by-default text editors, everything is a command line argument instead of sane menus of text, and so on. The amount of mental load it took to use those systems and apps vs Windows or Mac is a huge chunk of why they dominate the desktop.

I recall the pain of switching to Linux from Windows. Everything that was simple or easy to find just clicking around took thought in Linux. I knew that was unnecessary because my previous supplier made it unnecessary by putting in work. I later saw Apple do the same for network configuration, backups, and getting apps mostly safely. Elitists are still bragging about their commands, ports, and so on while known UX or foundational issues never get fixed.
Math was far wordier back then, the only other weird part is breaking the exponent into its prime factors which doesn't feel terrible to me if that is how people computed out or manipulated them.

Dear Apple,

Please make a similar "accessory" for iPhones. I'd gladly pay 5x or more, and I'm probably not alone.
Right now the only big name betting on Swift outside Apple for other OSes is IBM.

Even Microsoft is only improving the Objective-C support on their iOS bridge, in spite of the Swift support requests, at least for the time being.

If you check Brillo, which is basically Android without the Java layer, their plans are to create a C++ Frameworks layer not Swift and not Go.

Email: jobs@pachyderm.io

Pachyderm is looking for a javascript expert to lead and own the entire web front-end, dashboard UI, and data visualization layer of Pachyderm! Pachyderm is just 5 people right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company as well as building the rest of the engineering team.

Experience with full product life cycles and designing interfaces that are easily updated over time as products evolve is a must. Some backend server-side experience is also a nice plus, but not a strict requirement.

Right now Pachyderm's core technology just hit v1.1 and is production-ready. The next phase is to build a hosted service including administration panel and advanced data visualization tools.

Salaries start at $100k and go up from there based on experience. We also offer significant equity, full benefits, and all the usual startup perks. This position is based in SF.

Positions:

* Lead Front-end JS engineer

* Full-stack backend/web services engineer

* Core distributed systems/infrastructure engineer

Our hiring process is focused around strong communication skills and simulating our actual work environment, not BS coding questions.

Well SLI has nothing to do with CUDA, you can have as many CUDA supported cards as you want and use all of them they don't even have to be from the same model/generation and you can use them all.
Since he mentioned SLI i assumed it was for gaming since it's the only thing that actually limits you.
But that said the number of PCIE lanes is still a problem this is why people that do work on compute opt out (well are forced to) use Xeon parts with QPI to get enough PCIE lanes because the amount of lanes available for standard desktop parts (including the PCH) is pretty pathetic even if you are going with the full 40 PCIE lanes E series of CPU's.
This can be even worse if you want to use SATA Express or NVME drives since they also use your PCIe lanes, as well as a few other things like M.2 wireless network cards (pretty common these days on the upper midrange and high end motherboards), Thunderbolt and a few other things.
Speaking as a progressive, that's because most of us consider the US Constitution to be a means, rather than an end unto itself. We tend to make a strong distinction between Natural and Legal Rights[1] and to group the Constitution into the latter category. And Legal Rights are useful only insofar as they align with the underlying Natural Rights they support (i.e. life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness).

Our constitution is extremely useful. It's among the best systems for protecting our rights that we as humans seem to have devised, and we disregard the wisdom it encodes at our own peril. But that doesn't mean it's either perfect or sacred. If a law is actively harming (or negligently failing to protect) the inherent worth and dignity of every human being, then that law is wrong by definition, and I've yet to hear an argument that the Bill of Rights is exempt from that analysis.

Any deliberate maliciousness on their part aside, at the very least they could have "Warmed-up" the new IP addresses before switching customers over. That's like moving your existing customers over to a new server and only then having them wait while you "install software". At the worst, it's malicious. And at the best, just plain incompetent.
How is that possible?

In that case, it feels like a loophole there people could just skip the annual fees until an opertunity to sue someone occurs and then pay for all the years at ones.

Feels also strange a patent that have been withdrawn could be sold.
It is absurd to talk about separate assets without talking about where the liabilities go. Yahoo has over $16B in total liabilities. You cannot attach all the liabilities of a company to a specific part of its assets.

How many decision makers are willing to admit that they are subconsciously using "chair time" as a measure of productivity?
There's no real analogue to a CPU core (or thread) on a GPU, there are warp schedulers (Nvidia) and functional units with varying throughput rates. The closest analogue to a CPU thread is the GPU warp (Nvidia), which shares a program counter and executes as a 32-wide vector. AMD wavefronts (64-wide) are a little bit different, but not by much. The CUDA "thread" is really an illusion that makes a SIMD lane easier to program to (sometimes...)

Why wouldn't they just move somewhere else if they're not rich enough to stay there? SF isn't the only city in the Bay Area, after all; it's surrounded by many other cities.

My whole idea is to make it so service workers don't want to live in SF or work there either, causing services to either just not be available, or to cost an absolute fortune, seriously degrading the quality-of-life for SF residents. If you make it so service workers just can't live there (without resorting to illegal overcrowded occupation like you mention here), I think they'd just go elsewhere.

Are there any success stories of early stage high growth startups that were started by a remote team? At least in the startup world, most people are concerned that you will miss that zeal and watercooler chat magic that is critical to early stage companies. I don't think anybody cares too much about your 1000th engineer being remote, the organizational DNA has already been set a long time ago.
Google is far from one trick pony. Android is the most dominant operating system in the world. YouTube the most dominating Video sharing website in the world. Gmail the most widely used web-based email service. Google maps...

If my experience being part of the Amazon Echo team has taught me anything, it's that the most simple looking things (like Search, or Voice UI) require the most complex skill set.

Even if Google got just one thing right in your eyes (aka Search/AdWords), rest assured, underneath they employed a considerable number of disparate 'tricks' to get that right-- you just chose to umbrella dismiss those many tricks as 'One Trick' (TM).
The EScience of Battery Research
> Having just attended EmberCamp a week ago, I was excited about Ember CLI. Ember users have a great “getting started” experience thanks to a curated set of tools united under a single command-line interface.

This is one of the best things about Ember. `ember new`, `ember serve`, ember generate component my-component`, `ember build`, `ember deploy`, `ember install`. It's opinionated but it lets you get productive right off the bat. I tried React but after a couple of days I just couldn't get it working, waaay to many options. So I switched to Ember and haven't looked back.
>Also. This has nothing to do with left v. right.

Only people on the left believe this.

I suspect this was before they learned that Thiel would be speaking at the Republican Convention.
That sounds a lot like victim blaming. "They never said no, so what we did was totally fine!" Yes, other countries should say no to us more, but that doesn't absolve us for being a jerk.
That line initially read "Irlan (left) wouldn’t let me take pictures, but occasionally I’d sneak one in."
This is great since it provides an OFFICIAL opinionated set of tools for building React apps which is typically the largest barrier of entry for new developers looking to experiment with this technology.

However, it is missing a lot of core features that typically come standard with Webpack/React boilerplates. Directly from their Github:

Some features are currently not supported:

Server rendering.
Testing.
Some experimental syntax extensions (e.g. decorators).
CSS Modules.
LESS or Sass.
Hot reloading of components.

So a great first set of features for a simple React starter project, but for those of you looking to expand the development toolkit from this currently limited configuration, check out the following link to search React boiler projects on github based on a number of criteria like the ability to search by features included such as CSS Modules, Hot Module Replacement, etc.

Disclosure: I am a former employee of a Sendgrid competitor.

The proper way to transition IPs is to split traffic between them, so when one IP is throttled, traffic can continue. These accounts should have been assigned the new IP in addition to the old one. Once warming completed after a couple of days, the old removed. I would strongly recommend all affected customers to open support tickets with Sendgrid to get put on good IPs.
It is quite weird that we have all these up-votes (including my own) but no answers.

I think that the real answer might be something quite embarrassing, and politically incorrect.
I live in a rural area in upstate NY. I can't relocate because I live close to my wife's family and she teaches kids to ride horses.

A while back I was in a dead end job and working on a side project that was an image search engine that had nearly perfect relevance in a time when both Google Image Search and Bing Image Search were both embarrassingly bad -- at least at the time I started.

It took about a year to get the product really ready populate the database, and by that time the big guys had come a long way.

This got the attention of a company in LA that had ambitious ideas for an intelligent social media aggregator and they had explored several dead ends in terms of building the brains of the product so they brought me in. They were hoping I would relocate but they had to start getting traction.

It lasted about a year. A prototype of what I built was picked up by the team and developed into a "MVP" that didn't really get product market fit.

I moved on to another company that was based in Rochester, NY that hired remotes, but that is another story.
> I can and do.

Then you're wrong. That isn't how company book value works. A company's book value is the total of its assets minus the total of its liabilities. Removing an asset from the calculation without adjusting the liabilities is just wrong. It isn't proper accounting.

> I disagree, except if you care to shell out <10 million and say "see it's worth something!" which is disingenuous. The amount to maintain the remnants will dwarf the cost of acquisition, making it a net loss.

What numbers do you have to support this? What portion of Yahoo's liabilities are coming along with the assets Verizon wants to buy?
The problem with that argument is that the titles of HN submissions don't merely reflect an outside reality. They exert an influence on this site itself—one of the most powerful influences, in fact. So it's more like breathing polluted air, say, than watching a film.
But the Liar's Paradox leads to the essence of Godel Incompleteness (Hofstadter starts off with that paradox in GEB as well, to build up a repertoire of modes of thought in the reader). I think the oversalted and undersalted paradox should be seen in the same light, because the point about dishes does seem beautifully isomorphic to godel sentences. The interesting dishes are their own dish, but also a different dish, depending on the system (the taster) in which they are interpreted.
Yes, it was.

And don't confuse "nearly exclusive choice of criminals" with "only criminals choose it".

After all, cars are the nearly exclusive choice of bank robbers for getaways. But I don't think you are suggesting that every person driving in a car away from a bank should be documented and reported to the authorities.
The worst thing is that I see myself falling into this trap. I get dismissive of people without the right "pedigree", but then I realize it's the worst form of mental laziness.

I wonder whether truly great companies are different. I think that, just like really great investors (Fred Wilson and Michael Seibel, to name two) have said, "just tell me what you're doing in simple language", implicitly saying "I trust my own judgment" (vs. some elaborate dance of social networking/signaling), I suspect hiring at really top-tier companies doesn't turn as much on pedigree as on some measurable element of skill, or actual work performance.

In any case, the people I admire most in this world are the contrarians who have the conviction to act on their beliefs, like the Big Short guys, or Billy Beane from the A's -- but that kind of thinking isn't career-friendly, AT ALL.

I also think Nassim Taleb has the right idea that "skin in the game is a moral imperative". In all cases where people pass the buck, the problem is that their interests (e.g. their own careers) are insufficiently aligned with those of their principals (the firms' investors). You want to really see what works, look at the guys who are playing with their own money (e.g. hedge funds, proprietary traders, closely-held companies), not the pundits on CNN.
