I think most motherboards actually still support all of these crusty old GPIOs in hardware, but on a SuperIO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_I/O chip. One of these will usually hang off your southbridge/PCH via the Low Pin Count connector https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Pin_Count, which was specifically designed as the compatibility interface for these things.

In a modern PC, almost none of these are used - why would anyone want to use the crummy old AT 24-bit DMA controller when you can use PCIe bus mastering - but they're there if want to boot into an old real-mode OS.

Top 5 Bodybuilding Myths You Probably Didn’t Know About
> Anyway, it's just Wikipedia all over again.

I'm not a huge fan of either site, but Wikipedia is considerably worse than SE precisely because Wikipedia's meta stuff is out of control, and SE started with the concept of "meta is death".

There's easily hundreds of thousands of words of meta-discussion about whether to use n dash, m dash, hyphen or minus between words like "Mexican American War".

They're both somewhat hostile to new users of the site.

Coinbase (YC S13) | San Francisco, CA | ONSITE | FULL-TIME | Sr. Software Engineers

https://www.coinbase.com/careers/9275

We're looking for Senior Software Engineers to join us in building the future of payments infrastructure and digital currencies. We recently hired a VP of Engineering and have a team of 38 engineers (that constitutes half of the people in the office) who work on GDAX (exchange platform), brokerage, risk and growth, API, infrastructure, security, and data science.

We're built using a combination of Ruby, Node.js, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Swift (for iOS), and Java (for Android). Prior experience with these exact languages/technologies is not required.

I always thought the argument was that it's about genitalia more than anything else... aside from the few super crazy people most I spoke with just don't think it makes sense for someone with a penis to be using a woman's bathroom and vice versa. Especially if they don't look like the socially, generally, and visually understood gender the bathroom was meant for. Meaning that if someone who most people would identify as a man walks into a woman's bathroom that might make some woman feel uncomfortable, and men had the same reaction, they would feel uncomfortable if someone who visually looks very similar to a woman walked into a men's restroom they would feel pressured very uncomfortable.
Facebook announces new tech at Scale 2016
The Linus/GregKH attitude might work because it's the Linux kernel. It's almost irreplaceable for those who are using it, it has a huge developer community, it has many corporate sponsors to back up those developers, etc. It's not at all clear that the same approach would work for another project without those things. The way Linux kernel developers make such assumptions and pronouncements reminds me a lot of the way some people talk about social issues from a highly privileged position - utterly blind to the reality for those in different circumstances.

As I immediately reacted on Twitter, I think lawsuits are a lot like nukes. Using them might always be terrible, but their absence negates all leverage in any other kind of negotiation. That includes the kind of negotiation that Greg K-H talks about. In those negotiations, he still benefits from the kind of enforcement he himself eschews. Those who live under an umbrella shouldn't dump on the people holding it up IMO, as the LF stalwarts are doing in their attempts to defend their turf.

Disclosure: I work for Red Hat, which as a company and a community has probably held just about every possible position on this issue - often simultaneously.
Yep. That's another one of my apps :)

The Trade Desk | Full Time, Onsite | San Jose CA, San Francisco CA, Aliso Viejo CA, Ventura CA, Boulder CO, New York NY, London UK, Sydney AUS

Hiring: All levels of software engineers, as well as front-end focused developers who are comfortable with data-access design, development and optimization.

You might be a great fit for The Trade Desk dev team if..

* You are a full-stack engineer who wants to work everywhere, not just a small subset of components. Experience / interest in working in a variety of layers and technologies within a SOA is a must for our team. This includes: client-side AngularJS / JQuery, MVC-based web architecture, external RESTful APIs, distributed (and in our case, highly scaled) request handling services, no-SQL and relational SQL databases, many-layered data pipeline (e.g. data bus architecture, Hadoop / MPP data warehouse, etc.) that moves hundreds of thousands of items per second, and data visualization (e.g. Tableau). Experience in all these layers is not strictly required, but we do like to see experience working in more than one, as well as eagerness to work on projects that might slice through them all.

* You have product-driven software development experience using a modern, object-oriented language. Memory-managed languages are best -- .e.g. C#, Java, Python, Ruby, etc. We do most of our work in C#/.Net, but specific experience here is not required.

Cool stuff about TTD:

* Our platform processes 3.5million+ queries per second

* Work with the best engineering team in adtech

* The combination of huge datasets, high throughput, low latency and amazing scale means that we're constantly solving some of the biggest challenges in computer science.

* We've grown faster than any other adtech company in the industry, and have been recently recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in America by Inc. Magazine and Deloitte.

* Amazing Company Culture (We're very proud of our 5.0 rating on Glassdoor)

* Top-tier benefits

Those demos for VR editing are amazing, I'm really looking forward to the day that 3D worlds can be designed from within them.

A Game of Cards – Netlify
>Of course he wishes he had got into successful companies even earlier. Everyone wishes that.

Unfortunately, I made it sound like MA's thoughts about Airbnb was a generic "invest earlier means more money" cliche. I intended to show how AirBnb contrasted with Oculus VR. They passed on the early rounds for those 2 companies for different reasons.

For AirBnb Series A, Andreesen didn't understand the value. It was a gap in knowledge/imagination about what AirBnb could be. It was not because of a "we're a late-stage not Series A investor so come back when others have already invested in you".

For Oculus Rift Series A, a16z got the value of it, but they weren't sure about it gaining traction while the company was trying to solve the motion sickness issues. They let the other VCs take on that risk and they knew ahead of time they'd pay more to get in on the next fundraising round.

Based on their actions and interviews, it's possible that AH's primary investment thesis is Series B or later but I'm not sure you can beat Sequoia and Benchmark with wait-&-see late-round investing at sky high valuations. Those other VCs hunt aggressively to get in on Series A. Part of the prestige for a VC firm is to be seen as a leader and not a follower.
