It does happen on the host (I think). That reminds me of another advantage of hosting a network printer on the Mac. Even if the printer does require a dedicated print driver, to the rest of the network - including Windows computers -it's seen as a generic PostScript printer and the Mac takes care of the translation.
That's a colorful way to put it, but yes! Of course it is. That's what makes it fun.
If I were Google, I would be concerned that competitors are getting much more data much more cheaply than they are and that recent advances in image recognition/processing make the tech that much easier for Ford, etc to build in-house without having to license it from Google.

Though I guess Google/Uber are probably getting significantly higher resolution data than Tesla/MobileEye/etc since you can't stream all sensor data back to HQ over LTE.

I think a lot of these articles are driven by the fact that Google has been working on this for so long and yet we have upstarts that are getting cars on the road in a fraction of the time.

It's very possible that Google overestimated the problems with Level 3 Autonomy and the public backlash associated with it and building L3 tech as an on-ramp towards L4 may turn out to be the correct path to market and funding further development effort.
Google has been using that name semi-publicly since at least 2011.

If you don't like Facebook's actions then don't use it. Having open speech on Facebook's platform is not an inalienable right.

I don't agree with Facebook's privacy policies and thus have deleted my account and use other platforms. This isn't difficult. This article is tantamount to saying "Woe is me, NYT won't publish my op-ed." and expecting anyone to take you seriously.
There's nothing to stop someone putting resources on an api which do the one thing a client needs to do.

And what you describe nothing to do with REST, it's to do with overly fine-grained API design, without taking your users into account.

I think a US Army report had the figure higher than 80%.

A small thought experiment: imagine that you live in a city and for 1 year there was no electricity, no trash pickup, likely no water to drink and to flush toilets, and no gas for cars and trucks.

I think this scenario is very unlikely, but it is still worthwhile hardening this infrastructure.

I admit to being cautious. If it were up to me, I would also spend a lot of resources hardening computing systems: servers in business, kids' school laptops, home computers, IoT, network infrastructure, etc. would have maximum crypto, and we would have a "going to the moon" level effort pushing those aspects of computer science for general security issues.
To answer my own question I have a Samsung ML-1520, a laser printer smaller than most laser printers on the market and lasts about forever. Haven't had to replace the toner cartridge yet. It's only missing the mac driver from the list above. There exists a CUPS driver though.

I recently bought a Macbook Air that had a battery so swollen that the entire laptop was convex and the lit couldn't even close. I'm talking a two inch bulge.

What's amazing is that nothing broke and changing the battery allowed the aluminium to bend back and you can't even tell that the laptop looked like that.

The person that had it before me was actually using the laptop with the swollen battery until it got so bad some of the keys were getting pressed from under. That person could have easily used the laptop in question in a plane.
I didn't mean to be pedantic. I merely was asking a question. Bear in mind that it's a question that I first wondered about when I was myself a child.
I have frequently seen it done in the name of REST, and had people argue that an effective API is an evil RPC.
This can be resolved somewhat with a SOA or microservices, where one call from a client triggers multiple calls from one service to another. Sure there's overhead (which can be mitigated in a shared data center) but I think this is at least balanced out by modularity.

You're packing a lot of implied behavior - based on your experiences - into the DELETE verb instead of using the dictionary definition.

10 Cool Fall-Themed Subject Lines to Boost List Engagement This Season
High-Quality Recommendation Systems with Elasticsearch
I know that when the color heads on my printers are obstructed, black text will often come washed out (as if you printed in economy mode, or worse). I have looked at black text, printed with my newer Epson, with a magnifying glass, and I can see a few color dots near the edges of the text (these are not photocopies, it's text documents printed in B&W mode). I suppose it works a bit like anti-aliasing in some font rendering systems.

I'm not sure how B&W inkjet printers solve it, but it's probably by spending more ink to avoid the wash-out. As other people pointed out, some color printers allow for printing with just the black cartridge in. I don't have one of these to compare, so it's possible the text doesn't look as crisp on these because of the lack of "anti-aliasing".

I suppose part of the reason for this limitation to apply to some printers but not others has to do with the business model (ink is expensive and for some brands/model lines it's the main source of revenue), and perhaps the technology used - some printers have disposable headers on the cartridges themselves, and others (like the printers I own) have non-disposable headers, which basically means the printer is ruined if ink dries up in the headers. This may be why some printers require the cartridges, even if empty, to be in, so the headers are not as exposed to the air.

Unfortunately manufacturers don't like to give extensive explanations (see my business model point above...), but on user forum threads like [0] and [1] there are some suggestions for why things are the way they are.

Yes, but you could take advantage of the existing email providers' IMAP and POP implementations, and companies have long worked to ensure their emails are not sent to spam folders; it's not entirely a black art or impossible.
Two hundred bucks for the printer and, I dunno, twenty bucks per toner replacement?
Was that because the PS3 architecture was a failure? Or was it because many game developers are interested in cross-platform releases (many consoles and PC), and having an oddball architecture makes that harder for your platform to get those releases?
REST is just a representation of the underlying data. What does it matter if "status" is a database field or not?

More specifically, it shouldn't have to matter to consumers. Because of the way REST and HTTP work, clients intuitively understand retrieving and modifying resources (via GET, POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE). But they don't understand interacting with special-purpose endpoints (POST always implies "make a new thing" so it's weird in this context).

Your consumers should not have to learn weird idiosyncrasies in your API because you let your data model bleed into the interface.
Feedback from users, a measure of how comfortable people are with the idea, and if people are OK with it, then spreading the idea of driverless cars being safe and normal (which I consider differently to PR, but feel free to ignore it).

You also ensure that you're taking the same type and length of trips at the same time of day as you otherwise would be.

You now also don't need an extra car. Instead of one car taking passengers and one gathering data, you only need a single car doing both.

So it's cheaper and you get more information, as well as more accurate information from it.
I've figured it makes most sense to have a cheap'n'stupid B/W laserprinter at home, and just order whatever photo prints I need from a print shop. Occasional color photo printing at home is more expensive per photo than getting it from a shop i I'm not printing photos every week.
HATEOAS is much less important for programmatic APIs. You either hard-code knowledge of the URL scheme in the API client, or you hard-code knowledge of the payload schema in the API client. There isn't a huge amount of difference here IMO, especially if you have some kind of versioning mechanism in your URL routing.

Hard-coding URL scheme permits more pipelining and concurrency in the client. Embedding URLs in payloads forces sequencing. This alone can make the templated URL scheme a win for interactivity.
Every single product that Google has ever announced.

Google has never had a successful original product. It has only been successful in slight refinements (or in the case of Android, just changes - not refinements) within already successful product categories. To be really harsh; if success means profit, it's only ever been successful with ads.
> You know, it might not be such a bad idea to make a printer-bot ala a RepRap that allowed you to put any writing instrument you wanted into the cross-hairs and slowly draw out your documents like a plotter.

The best measure of how a project is going is using the software it is producing. Instead of using questionable data from Jira and the like, just try to use the software. Ask for a demo, or run the code yourself, or look through unit and acceptance tests.
"A framework to make Foo bearable" seems like a huge portion of the issue here. We have a bunch of tools so hideously unfriendly to everyday development that we have to pile framework on framework in an attempt to actually get something built in a timely manner.

And the result, of course, is an unmaintainable stack of dependencies and inefficiencies. Any time anything changes, anywhere, the whole thing falls apart again.

Security folks talk about "threat surface" - I wonder if it would help to have an idea of "development surface" to signify the risks of bloat and dependency chaining?
Yes.

It should have stayed as hypertext documents, just plain HTML + CSS, with everything else just covered by network protocols.

Instead it is a pile of hacks of trying to bend HTML + CSS + JavaScript to behave like native applications, but not quite, because the browser is in control of the L&F leading to yet another pile of hacks to make the already existing hacks to behave the same across all required browsers (including different versions of the same browser).
A year of blackout? Yeah, 80% sounds about right. See, our modern cities are designed around efficient transport (food, sanitation). Back in the day they added sewers to London because it took longer than a day for the nightsoil wagons to get to the dump sites and back - something more efficient was needed.

Today its 1000X that. There's no way to get food to people without efficient transport, which depends utterly on energy. No way to get sewage out. No way to get water flowing. Heck even the traffic lights are needed to keep transport going.

A year without food and water? Without sanitation? Of course nearly everybody dies.

Manual solutions could be found, but its impossible that they could support the current population density. So folks would have to flee the cities. To the countryside, where they just die a different death. After pillaging and destroying any remaining food pipeline.
The triggering event is a high altitude nuclear explosion designed for a maximum EMP pulse. I think China and Russia (and a few of our close allies) are the only actors who have this capability and I think there is an astronomically low chance of them doing this.

Still, spending money hardening our infrastructure would improve general reliability, help prevent deaths do to storm outages, etc. Good thing to do.
No mention of the biggest single problem with REST as it's practiced: POST /login.

Ask HN: Resources for software managers?
I'm a software engineer that's moved into the management role in the last few years. For the most part, it's been a great transition and my teams are running well. I've got 3 teams with a total of 14 people in multiple offices. We're working on interesting projects, profitable and growing, and for the most part, I really enjoy my work.

However, I don't think that's necessarily due to me knowing what I'm doing. I think it's mainly due to having good people on my teams and good organizational support.

I have found all sorts of management training online. I've listened to things like the Manager Tools podcast and read various books (like Managing Humans and other more serious management books like Peopleware). I've looked for conferences or trainings that might be relevant (like Calibrate https://www.calibratesf.com/).

It seems like there's a lot of material for management in general, but not a lot for software engineering management in particular. Additionally, there's little to no peer network (at least in my area) where I can learn from what others or doing or discuss challenges I'm facing.

I have two questions:

1. Are there resources out there I'm missing?

2. Is there interest in starting a group or peer network?

True, should have written leverage rather than debt but the risk profile is the same for investors.
It's nice to see that there are companies making quality products. It's worth paying a little bit more for something that is of better quality. Meanwhile most companies are trying to make the cheapest items so people will buy them regardless of quality.
In my experience, this holds true as well. I would say though, that you have to keep an open mind when interviewing people just starting out or at that junior level cause there are some really talented, yet raw, developers that you can miss out on otherwise. This is of course assuming you have the bandwidth to help mentor these developers and/or you are okay with less output for the first 6-9 months while they begin to grok what is needed for the job.

Overall, I've been bummed lately because I've interviewed CS majors and they have no/poor personal website, basic CS code in Github, and overall don't seem to have that passion that other non CS majors do have. I don't know if it's college that isn't preparing them well enough, but having a personal project or two in Github alongside a decent personal website goes a long way to at least indicate you actually enjoy programming.

Lots of finding work and vetting skills is actually a chicken or the egg problem. You have to find the places that are willing to offer opportunity with less proven background in order to open the door to bigger opportunities. This is like any job skill.
Disagree. It is the main platform because those folks agree with the terms of use and privacy policy. As suggested, you can use something else that lines up with what you believe and frankly, if a lot more people do that, there will be another viable rival to Facebook. Vote with your clicks.
I have to completely disagree ... What are you even talking about? The inability to have circular links is deeply hobbling; they arise naturally in all kinds of circumstances.
> My dream for this kind of thing would be something akin to DNS but for identity (pseudo or not), and an open API for content.

SDSI/SPKI had an interesting mechanism for getting around Zooko's Triangle (before, I think, the latter was formalised): identities are keys (and therefore globally unique), with each user assigning his own names to people (e.g. 'Bill' or 'Ted'); users can then refer to other people as 'my wife's Uncle Bill' and 'Microsoft's Bill' and not confuse them.

This is decentralised and federalised to the max, which is awesome.

It'd be great for something like a Facebook killer, in which when I search for 'Adam Smith' I probably want the Adam Smith I went to gradeschool with, as opposed to the 18th century Scottish economist.
I don't really want to defend Apple's decision to remove the 3.5mm jack, but I think if we're going to criticize the decision, it's better to just focus on the fact that there really wasn't anything wrong with the jack for consumers and lightning audio solutions don't provide consumers with many benefits. The "charge and listen" argument has been brought up so many times that I'm not sure the people saying it really think about the practicality of it.

What I mean is, how often is the scenario where you need to be charging the phone AND listening to music a major need? Like, between iPods, iPhones, and Android devices, for me it's almost always been a one or the other scenario. The phone charges at night when I sleep, and it's music during the day. Or I charge while at work where I use the computer for music. Charging tethers me to an object that cannot shift with me (computer, wall, etc) and I rarely am in a sitution where it's a necessity for me to be able to do both at once.

Truth is the only time I have ever wanted to charge and listen to music, I just used a bluetooth headset while I was cooking in the kitchen.

Now, I understand the purpose behind the argument - it's not so much the practicality as it is that user choice has been removed needlessly. But argue that - this idea that a huge major feature was removed and it spites users is ridiculous. Yes, so is Apple removing the 3.5mm audio jack, but I don't really see the value in trumpeting an absurd scenario as a major reason you need to have both ports.

I'm not all that invested in this since I likely can't afford a new iPhone anyways - maybe once they're on the iphone 9 I can afford to be upset about not having a 3.5 mm jack. But I would imagine Apple isn't making this decision blind. I'm sure they have numbers to show that the majority of iDevice users just use the provided headphones, and the 3.5mm dongle is pretty much a half-assed solution for those outside of the majority. But I don't think that Apple is really worried about the "obsoleteness" of the 3.5mm, and I'm gonna guess they have the data to show their users aren't en masse worried about it either.
