I don't think it's controversial - one of the reasons people oppose domestic surveillance is because it's effective, if it weren't effective, its abuse wouldn't really be a problem.

But law enforcement already has ways of doing its job without getting new surveillance powers. They can find people on Tor, they can pay for exploits to get into cellphones, and there always seems to be obvious (in hindsight) dots that could or should have been connected, leading to a terrorist plot, which rarely seem to involve encrypted communications.

I want terrorists stopped, but i'm not convinced that governments can't stop terrorists even with the existence of encryption.
I don't actually like Finder. At all. I think Windows Explorer is better. Nothing in Finder makes sense to me except the "All My Files" section, and even then I can save a file and it doesn't show up in there. Complete mystery to me.

What I like is a Unix command line. I also like virtual desktops that I can spawn by full-screening an application. I have a Red Hat laptop that work gave me, but I prefer my BYOD Macbook. I have three Linux certifications, but it's still so fiddly and good lord do I hate the package management tools. All of them. Why is it "yum install httpd" but "apt-get install apache2"? Why doesn't my OS run "apt-get update" in the background every so often so I don't have to do it manually when I want to install something?

It's nice to have Unix but backed by a company who knows how to design a user-friendly experience.
I was inventing the smartphone when most of the people on this site were still in second grade, so that's definitely not me. However, good taste is a key to success. It has always been true and remains true that people do not want everyday objects turning into software hassles. Nobody ever wanted to upgrade Flash Player on their "smart" TV. Ever. Nobody wants to have to charge their car keys. Nobody wants to charge their motorcycle helmet every 2 hours of riding.

Here I am using a definition of "nobody" which means "a number of people so close to zero that it will be virtually impossible to create a successful company serving this tiny or non-existent market."

After not owning a Windows machine for around 14 years I bought a dell xps13. I love the design but the Windows experience really leaves the same things to be desired. I've had issues from dell (crappy drivers). But the actual user expedience still lacks. It's 2016 and Windows can't figure out a way to make all apps look ok on a high resolution. Never before have I seen an OS actually fail to shut down.

Alan Watts: Prickles and Goo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXi_ldNRNtM

It's true that the "Prickles" have caused problems. However, a tremendous amount of good has come of science and technology. Skepticism is necessary to counteract humanity's collective hubris. Morality and philosophy have their uses for this as well. However, it's high time that we asked for some epistemic rigor from the "Gooey" side. Otherwise, our society is going to drown in unarguable nonsense.
A version of this happened to us - we played the role of Investor B and I became a director of the company.

It was a very easy no.

Our fund does not charge any fees to companies - no legal fees nor director fees. This way we align with the company on trying to minimise transaction and on-going costs for all parties.
I predict that with the success of Pokemon Go, there's going to be a gazillion "real world" and augmented reality games and apps over the next couple of years. Pokemon Go is the very low-hanging fruit; it's a map with artificial points of interest laid on top, with a snapshot of the real thing. So, a "welcome to Springfield" sign becomes a Pokestop, but the game doesn't really know what is there, it just has a picture of it and knowledge that there's some kind of landmark there. This is cool in and of itself, but if the game actually had more awareness of the world, it'd be even cooler to have real buildings and terrain represented in-game.

Pokemon Go is kinda the Pong (or maybe Donkey Kong) of augmented reality gaming. It's so novel that people forgive that it's extremely limited (and there's a regular non-augmented reality game underneath to keep it interesting and make it more interesting...it's kinda like the old board games that shipped with a VHS tape of scenes or whatever or the video games that came with a bunch of cool ancillary materials like operations manuals and such).

In short: I think tools like this are mandatory for augmented reality to become a really good medium for telling stories. It's extremely basic, still, but given the improvements in public data sets (I remember reading that there's POI data sets coming along now, including information about the size and shapes of buildings and such, too) and frameworks for turning it into a game world, I think it'll get better fast.

If someone wanted to be at the forefront of some area of the future of gaming, I think this would be one of those areas. It's not getting as much attention as VR, but I think it's got every bit as much potential to change the world and to change gaming.

He has had the best analysis of Trump so far. He seems a little out there so you have to go back all the way to the start of his analysis, but it is some pretty good stuff, and has been extremely accurate, pronouncing the Jeb! campaign dead the day Trump called him low energy, etc.

It is a very interesting way of interpreting the world, and the comment sections on the articles were usually pretty good, but in recent times has swiftly devolved from a discussion of the technique, so they are disabled.

Also, Hillary has someone who is actually understands persuasion now, which is resulting in some actual back and forth.
Its a great read to test your understanding and acceptance of what the human unconscious is both capable and in control of.

I've often thought that Physician Assistant might be a decent gig. Pay isn't stratospheric, but you can work anywhere in the country (a factor for two career families) and the training costs can't possibly be as extreme as a full physician.

There may be fewer "insider" investment opportunities available to physicians. Salary income for physicians is only part of their earning potential.

None of what you said addresses the issue that I (or they) are talking about.

On Postgres an update requires a rewrite of every index of the row.

On MySQL it only requires an update of the indexes that were touched by the update.

Did those jobs move to Canada and Mexico? On the other hand, it's my understanding that NAFTA also provides for cross-border portability for some occupations, notably engineers.

He's had to take whatever job he can get, currently pretty close to minimum wage. And that's after hundreds of applications since 2009/2010.

Hope they both can find a job (or a better job) soon. I'd like some good advice too.
I know this is tongue in cheek, but I think it's instructive to look at different "development" disciplines and see both why they're different and see what we can learn from them.

For example, in genetic engineering, given the constraint that the debug/test cycle is lifetimes, they use different approaches:

1. Plan, model and simulate

2. Use living models that have fast lifetimes (bacteria, fruit flies, etc.)

3. Use results from #2 to improve #1 and continue to tighten the feedback loop.

In traditional engineering, there's groups that do nothing but test the stress points of different materials, subtract out a safety margin and put that into design databases so when you build a bridge, you know exactly how much steel to buy to make sure it doesn't fall down.

and so on.

It's also instructive for other engineering disciplines to learn from software (and why it's very different). Lots of traditional engineering disciplines look down on software engineering because, from the outside it looks a lot like beta-testing in the wild. But part of building software is doing so and providing working software!

As with all things, this really depends on what your job is. I never use Homebrew. I installed it but I've never used it for anything. All I need is a super-reliable computer and bash. My Red Hat laptop gives me one of those, my Macbook gives me both.

But literally my biggest pet peeve with Windows is, it seems every few days I sit down in the morning and log in only to realize it had rebooted itself overnight. Or it's begging me to schedule a reboot. Or I installed a program and immediately afterwards it needs to reboot to finish installing. My Windows machine spends more time shutting down or starting up than it does actually running.
This has nothing to do with pooling, you can't use a connection pool in this scenario because you're in a transaction. Even in the MS world, that requires a single connection to be used throughout without releasing it back to the pool. If one isn't in a transaction then each access to the db uses a fresh connection from the pool and this problem never comes up, but the OP here is assuming the time between open and close is a transaction.

I'm guessing GP is referring to the fact that most popular mouse strains for research are, in theory, isogenic (genetically identical). This is achieved by inbreeding the mice for multiple generations until they are statistically certain to be homozygous at every gene locus. The standard is 20 generations. Thus making all the mice in a strain as close genetically as clones or twins

There are of course issues with random mutation. So the mice end up not being _exactly_ identical. JAX actually puts a lot of effort into trying maintain the genetic stability of their strains through methods such as freezing founder sperm and rebreeding it into later generations.
Sure not having positions open will suck, but it's not like their knowledge is useless. If you can't find a good company that'll hire you... just make one yourself.

Comments like that are typical from people who have a career repairing or building PCs, I know quite a few desktop support guys who are of the opinion that if you didn't build it yourself, the company you bought it from sabotaged something. Only home built computers can be trusted to be reliable.

The problem is, in their line of work they only ever see the broken computers. So it kind of taints their view point.

I'm not following the logic here.

Let's say person X has lots of bitcoins (potentially mined from the early days, when it was very easy to obtain). They go and sell it for $30,000, in cash. Let's assume X has the intention to declare the gains in their upcoming tax returns.

Why this would be money laundering?

Basically X is selling a property in the form of a mathematical equation, that was obtained legally. Of course they'll have to pay taxes like in any other profit-generating transaction, but other than that I'm failing in seeing the issue.

ps: it seems that in this case they were trying to entice the guy with stolen credit cards. As that didn't work, they tried switching to money laundering.

Nvidia  to use RISC-V as embedded controller in new discrete and Tegra products
> I guess I was unclear, my point was that I think some TLD should be dedicated for home networks, with ICANN and especially browsers recognizing that.

If it's for home networks, .home resolution would usually occur at the DNS server on your router. How does the browser know that your router follows the new rules and won't route that DNS request up to your ISP, and therefore should trust the request?

> But that's not an issue, because if it's not on your subnet then you wouldn't be visiting it in the first place.

Unless your attacker can get you to click a link? That's a pretty easy thing to get users (especially the unexperienced) to do. Or they can sneak it into a secure page and monitor requests/serve malicious assets.

> In the worst case, you could make the browser check your subnet mask. But since the contents on those IPs will be unique from local network to local network anyway, I really don't see the point in bothering.

This ignores the case where your local network is either (a) infiltrated (b) a coffeeshop. The second being super common, and would need to be guarded against by the browser having some sort of Windows-style public/private network distinction, which users would remember to configure correctly.

> But since the contents on those IPs will be unique from local network to local network anyway, I really don't see the point in bothering.

I'm not seeing the connection. If someone with control of your public internet connection (i.e. what HTTPS is designed to guard against) sends a response when your browser requests something from that address, what does it matter what that address does in another local network?

Everything I've described here has been an element of a real attack where something somewhere was more trusted than it was supposed to be. This would add a massive array of attack vectors, and at best would indicate to the user trust in something that has no reason to be trusted.

If you're doing something on your local network, it makes a lot more sense to just create a self-signed CA and put the root on your devices. In the onion case, you should use HTTPS between you and your proxy (e.g. with a *.onion wildcard cert) to make sure you actually connect to your proxy.
Robert Fano, 98, Dies; Engineer Who Helped Develop Interactive Computers
lets see how much I get right here,

NICTA was the australian government side, OK Labs was private company that spun out of it.

Some early versions of OKL4 were opensource and based on code from NICTA(&others) but there was an internal rewrite that was OK Labs proprietary-only

seL4 is yet another entirely separate codebase, written by NICTA, but where the copyright was given to OK Labs by NICTA.
Yea sure some people in the sea of 500 will be doing elegant clean things, working in the core part of the business ( usually at or near the cash register program ) but if you have reason to have 500 developers you don't simply get the luxury of having every project be written perfectly.

Landing somewhere in-between by getting things done not perfect but shippable, and doing it fast as possible is par for the course ime. The best code is always written the 2nd or 3rd time, never the first.

Especially on the case of hyper growth worrying your competitors like lyft or postmates or amazon might get something pivotal out first.

People have to learn somewhere, usually things like this they learn at scale, on the job.
I'd say it's too little autonomy too soon.

The most dangerous thing about "Autopilot" is that the human is still supposed to be responsible.

So after what might be hours of inactivity, the human driver is expected to assume control of the vehicle within a split second when the Tesla suddenly decides it's not confident enough in it's own driving.

That's hardly autonomous.

I started using CTEs much more often for complex queries actually. IMHO, they're more clear and easier to read than sub-queries, especially when those sub-queries get nested 3 or 4 layers deep.

I agree with the ideas of irregularities. The WHERE vs HAVING doesn't bother me much, and I can't think of a better syntax off hand. My SQL pet peeves are that the SELECT list is at the beginning - I don't know what columns I want exactly until after I type out the JOINs, so I usually type SELECT * and then fill in later. I'd rather put it between WHERE and ORDER BY. I'd also like UPDATE to put the WHERE before the SET, so you don't risk blowing up a ton of data if you forget or miss the WHERE.

Probably a lost cause to get that in, but I would think it wouldn't be too hard to at least support those syntax changes in addition to the current standard.

I can't seem to find it, but I was under the impression that some famous mathematician (I had Erdos in mind, but that's clearly wrong) solved an open problem during a math olympiad in the 1950s. Perhaps that was just an tall tale our trainers would tell us, though!
Isn't it dangerous to rely on autopilot anyway? I don't drive a Tesla but I was under the impression that their instructions were "keep your hands on the wheel and feet ready to take manual control". It probably says something along the lines of "follow all applicable traffic laws" too, something which precludes doing 75 in a 65.
