Oh, that's a shame, Why is it not open source? Many companies (and governments) I know have or are adopting policies to only use open source software unless there's a /really/ good case not to.

I certainly wouldn't run a self hosted service at our work that wasn't open source, I couldn't imagine going back to a world where we couldn't inspect or contribute to the source:
Will the orange industry kill off the apple industry?

No. Because there's such thing as competition. More than one company can survive and thrive in the same industry. That's my point.

I have a nylon brush that works great, it's designed to be used when the grill is cold.
The only internships in your link are support roles or are in Hyderabad. I'm very interested doing an SDE internship for AWS, what would be the best way for me to do that?
That's true. And I'm sort of going into that line of work. Good trick!
Patrick Winston is a great and engaging person!
This is a good article, and I have become persuaded that the future of public transit in the United States is probably going to be very Uber-like (if not actually operated by Uber, as these pilot projects are). And I think a lot of other places will follow suit, because trains are great where and when there are large volumes of people, but on-demand cars or small buses are much cheaper to operate in places and times where demand is more spread out.

The article brings up a serious shortcoming with the Uber approach, however, and that's access for people lacking the technological means to hail an Uber or with physical disabilities that make traveling in a regular passenger car difficult. The smartphone issue can be addressed in a pretty low-tech way: a phone number that someone can call and an operator can arrange for the pickup. As for folks with disabilities, I'm afraid that the best solution would be to have at least one van or small bus with a wheelchair lift that can be dispatched.

I think that the future of municipal mass transit will probably include traditional buses in most places, that don't follow a set route but instead pick up and drop people off as necessary, supplemented by cars with private drivers that provide extra capacity in peak times and possibly provide 24 hour service.

Yes, you can remove it from the store. Past purchasers can still download it but only from their Purchases page.
So the irony isn't lost on me that I should have probably had my blog monetized! I am writing a book on how to properly hire for, build out and project manage your development team. Would have been nice to have that on the blog BEFORE I got 5000 visitors!
It was originally intended just to be a few hints to make it a bit easier. But I thought it made sense, that if you don't make any guess at all, it might as well guess the most likely character for you, and give you a few free points.
How devious. I approve.
The 50 character limit is new. To quote an email from Apple about 9 hours ago: "App names you submit in iTunes Connect for new apps and updates will now be limited to no longer than 50 characters."
Pretty much every living thing reproduces exponentially until it reaches the carrying capacity of its environment.

(Humans, fortunately, are starting to get better about this.)

Also, you want "logarithmic," not "logistic."
Oh okay, thank you. I didn't think about that...During a semester abroad I used to have a plan from H2O wireless which was not as expensive though.

I'll definitely check out Meetup!
Effectively, TrueOS _is_ FreeBSD, plus the work in progress graphics stack that will eventually land in .org base or ports, plus an installer, plus some opinionated settings (kernel build, /etc, /boot/loader.conf), plus some original software (control panels, lumina DE).

This is a valid way to contribute to *NIX -- downstreams that push and pull code to evolve the entire ecosystem.
Definitely have been bitten with the query statistics issue before. I worked with a colleague once who was adamant that we build our backend on MongoDB, but I was able to convince him to build on Postgres because of it's JSONB support. I don't get why, since schema updates are generally very cheap with databases like Postgres (adding columns without a default or deleting columns is basically just a metadata change), but some developers believe its worth the headache of going schema-less to avoid migrations. In a sense, that suggestion kind of bit me in the ass when we started having some painfully slow report generation queries that should have been using indexes, but were doing table scans because of the lack of table statistics. In a much larger sense, I'm still thankful we never used MongoDB.

Protip: Use the planner config settings[1] (one of which is mentioned in this article) with SET LOCAL in a transaction if you're really sure the query planner is giving you guff. On more structured data that Postgres can calculate statistics on, let it do its magic.

The protocol isn't any different than it is today you need to know the account and the current password, there isn't anything more to breach then today it's no different than any password change form.

If you get locked out of your password manager you are already fucked.

And in any case It doesn't prevent users from reseting a password manually directly on each site.
One method of fixing this would be to have the neural network make 2 predictions. The first would be to predict what decision the doctor would make. The second would be to predict what decision is actually likely to lead to the best outcome.

In cases where it's very likely the doctor would make a different decision, it should flag it for human review.
This was a test which had followed previous testing.

To be fair, it's not really Rust's fault. The GUI story in most non-AAA languages is terrible, and in many ways, the GUI story in most AAA languages isn't always that great either, it just so happens that there's one really good solution so people can generally live with that, but there isn't necessarily any "choice".

The problem is that GUIs tend to be written in very sophisticated and complicated C or C++, and the further your idioms/semantics/runtime deviates from that, the harder the binding gets. This is a solvable problem, except that a good GUI is also one of the most staggeringly enormous and complicated things you might want to bind to, such that simply doing a basic mapping of types is an overwhelming project for just one person, let alone getting any functionality going. This complexity also means that your idioms/semantics/runtime don't have to deviate very far at all before the pain is felt in dozens of classes; even something like Python designed to be similar to C for binding purposes requires substantial effort to bind to a GUI, and then substantial maintenance to maintain the binding over time. Then the sheer overwhelming complexity also, in my experience, means that even with binding libraries generally considered to be pretty good, it is fantastically easy to step off the blazed trails and straight into segfaults in languages that aren't supposed to be capable of such things.

Also people tend to be very picky about GUIs (without any comment intended on whether that's a good thing). As soon as you add a requirement like "cross-platform" you narrow the already-thin field down, and goodness help you if you insist on "cross-platform native interaction" or something.

I've seen several language communities float the idea of creating their own widget sets natively, but the scope of the project appears to sit somewhere between "create a new browser" and "create a new office suite", if you want a good one that can be legitimately used as a selling point for the language and is competition for QT or Gtk or native Android or whathaveyou, and not merely something that worked on some guy's Linux box once.

(I've also found that people tend to underestimate the difficulty of creating a new widget library. My suggestion, before anyone suggests how easy it could be, is to sit down and read the full GTK or QT documentation first. Then you can go tell me about things like http://www.fltk.org/ , and I'll observe that yes, that would be much easier to bind, but every time I've seen it suggested someone always almost immediately finds some reason it isn't good enough for them. And my conversations about this tended to predate mobile as an issue... Using something like FLTK requires you to think more like a browser developer back when Javascript wasn't much of a thing, and to bend your app around what it can do, rather than bending the GUI around what you want.)
Kratom is the safest way to withdrawal from opiates. It can ease the symptoms to a very manageable level. It also cannot be abused and if a dose larger than about 20 grams is consumed, it will not provide any additional relief and only cause stomach discomfort.

Kratom is much better than Methadone as you are then addicted to Methadone and withdrawal from Methadone is MUCH worse. I have seen someone who was mildly dependant on Opiates given a much higher dosage of Methadone that actually increased their tolerance to opiates and pushed them further into opiate dependence.

Kratom has almost no physical withdrawal symptoms and is a heroin addicts best option to try to kick the habit. This is the absolute worst thing that can be done given the amount of heroin addicts that were created by the DEA's crackdown on legal opiate prescription pain relief.
Hmm not sure I understand your reasoning here.. You don't think there's a difference between speeding and choosing a weak password for a site like last.fm? The latter might be a bit silly, but how does it put others at risk?
So I agree with the sentiment that marks are not useful however you can do an analysis of the "non-realized gains" and the age of each fund then compare that to benchmarks of other funds of the same year.

That's basically a backend way of figuring out how much of their returns are pie in the sky. One other thing to keep in mind to give a16z the benefit of the doubt is their funds are MASSIVE. Putting that amount of capital to work is hard- and relatively harder than Bessemer and the other funds they are compared to.

That said, the % of Fund III in particular that is non realized is fairly scary. I'd take a wager that it does not return capital. Note also A16z pretty quickly raised a new fund before a lot of these returns for 3 become clearer. That's just guessing on my part but I'd def bet III is not gonna be good. That said I still love a16z and the partners and their approach...I actually hope I'm dead wrong.

My impression is that Chicago has a lot of catching up to do in terms of recruitment. The jobs are there, but a lot of places are clueless about advertising them and courting talent. Housing prices are more affordable than the valley, but still high for the median salary here. Really the biggest problem with Chicago IMHO is the aging demographic of the highly skilled sought after developer means they want things like good schools and safe neighborhoods IN their city not an hour outside of it.

There's a discussion about this above, but open source has many meanings. Duet's source is open, meaning you can absolute inspect and/or modify it once you purchase it, but it's not free software, so the source isn't publicly available, which is why it's not on github.

i read the article, but i don't think they raised what to me is the most important point.

ok, so small municipality runs a bus service for the elderly, disabled and indigent. as one might expect given the need and tax base, its pretty threadbare.

so instead we have a ridesharing service whose drivers are local, whose customers are local, and whose costs are partially paid for out of the limited local tax base.

now I'm sure that the municipality would do a lousy job of running that service on their own. it doesn't seem completely corrupt, but it also doesn't sound quite right to be underwriting uber's business with local tax income either.

>The Adjunct scam is really, truly atrocious. Adjucts and grad students can unionize now, though, and it only takes one strike in the e. coli labs for a research university to cave...

Grad students have been forming unions since the '70s, and it hasn't had any impact. There are so few tenure track positions you can't afford to even slightly irritate the people you need to get one, and everyone views their stint as a TA or an adjunct as temporary.
who are the main creditors of a shipping company like Hanjin?
Not OP but also a NS developer (custom built Pentium), and I must say like the menu system, digital librarian, workspace manager, and eof much better. A separate interface builder was much better, but that's more a developer tool thing.

I think you mean it's much more like science than math. Not that it's much more like alchemy than science.

Machine learning research is very empirical. With a philosophy of doing lots of experiments and tests, and discovering what methods work best. That's what science is. No scientific field starts off with complete knowledge and understanding, they have to do a lot of experiments to discover the general laws.

Some people dislike empiricism and want pure, provable math. Machine learning isn't a field of mathematics, at least not in practice. But that doesn't mean it's not a science.
Also the more I comment on this the more the flamewar detector will weight the story down, right? RIGHT, YOU JERK?

rare earth magnets are not banned in the US per se. They are banned from children's toys. But I don't let my kids play with wire brushes either.
Multiple, independent apps poking changes into the database is a kind of failure too. For writer apps > 1 it is often preferable to route them through a middle tier / web API / etc.
This is an outrage. I personally know several people who have used Kratom to overcome prescription opiate addictions. Their lives today might be totally fucked without it.
Sorry, reposting. Made a mistake in the submission.
In boston there is a startup that does adaptive pickup and dropoff in certain areas with short bus sized vehicles. Boston has some areas that are tricky to get to via public transit. When they rolled back the late night public transit, they talked about using "Bridj" to replace its service.

Not sure how well it works, though I see a lot of their vehicles from my Bike. Apparently they operate in Washington and Kansas City.

http://www.bridj.com

There is also in Boston public transport (The Ride) for those with disabilites that does something similar point to point transit

It's because each province maintains their own health care data and many of them refuse to share anything with the others - whether from a paranoid privacy standpoint or a bureaucratic inability to make it happen.

"I might want to add more columns later" is not a good justification for avoiding a relational model. If you realize that you want an additional column, just run an ALTER TABLE statement.
Interesting question of how you'd classify that.

A design flaw (foam) under launch stress resulted in foam shedding and leading edge wing impacts damaging tiles and ensuring loss of the vehicle on reentry.

I'd argue the failure was in design, triggered during launch, and manifested on reentry. But Columbia was doomed from seconds into flight.

Bitcoin has too much momentum to plausibly be replaced in the near future. More likely is that bitcoin integrates ZKP-based cryptographic privacy once it becomes viable.
I found a page for 2009 that breaks down the cost of a generic educational cubesat down. It includes the ability to do attitude control and a camera and it came to ~52k including launch costs. It's probably fallen since then.

Based on what others have posted, it's not necessarily a clause like, "If you launch successfully, we go ahead with the deal", but rather a clause like, "If the satellite is operational within X amount of time, we will go ahead with the deal."

This explosion probably put them way past the X amount of time so the deal would fall through.
I've never ingested one, but I've spotted and removed bristles on my grills several times. I stopped using them awhile ago. It's only a matter of time before someone swallows one.
