You've essentially restated what I said above. She declined to investigate certain variables because she was worried they would come out with the "wrong" effects (instead she chose to use near-perfect correlates of those variables, like zip code).

You can always decline to use a variable after the fact; she decided she didn't want to know the effect in the first place. Suppose the effect had been the opposite of what she suspected?

Congrats again on getting amazing amount done on budget. The part that jumped out more than usual was you soloing it to stay within budget. Pretty impressive. How did you handle the extensive validation/verification that normally takes a whole team on ASIC's? Does your method have a correct-by-construction aspect and/or automate most of the testing or formal stuff?

Keeping Sane on the Startup Rollercoaster
It seems to be that Samsung is getting a lot of extra scrutiny based on their recall and the news is exploiting this. Phone batteries have been known to overheat and explode for years now and it is in no way brand specific. I think the way Samsung handled the whole situation was above and beyond how other companies may have responded. They identified an issue, and replaced everything.

I am not saying that Samsung could not have made another mistake, but I think it is unreasonable to try and link every single battery issue and explosion under the Samsung brand as something that is a precursor to another giant issue.

This recently happened with an iphone on a plane:

"Imagine it was a personal secretary you had that gave you the EXACT same information. Gave you your flight information, turned on the light when you asked, gave you the weather and your schedule."

In your metaphor, you are implicitly paying the secretary, so the secretary is incentivized to maintain your interests.

How much have you paid Google for its free services?

Your metaphor is inapplicable. You don't have a secretary telling you these things; you have a salesman trying to sell you things, and the salesman is getting smarter every day while you aren't. Not the same thing at all.

> If the container is going to be metal, then hydrogen is an option.

Afaik hydrogen tends to slowly diffuse through metals and embrittle and corrode them in the process. And a solid-metal hull probably is ideal for airships anyway.
> Sure, and to illustrate your point, I have an email very similar to someone else's. I very frequently get their emails (invoices, church events, travel itineraries, purchase receipts). Google thinks they're _my_ trips, and updates me about flight times.

Fun story there. Because Google's internal privacy safeguards are so strict, the people working on features like that can't look for example emails to train their ML models with.

They can only look at emails that were explicitly sent to them in order to improve the feature (and almost no one forwards along positive nor negative examples). What they can do across the email corpus is run jobs that return aggregate stats, where each stat must be coarse enough that it is infeasible to trace back to original users (often 100k+ users per data point).

So, AFAIK, training & testing models under these safeguards is more or less done blind. Build a model with the few examples you do have, and then run it against the corpus. If you see numbers change, you have no idea if that's good or bad, since you can't actually inspect the run.

(at least, this is the way it was a few years ago)
If the exterior is rigid and the inside is filled with this material it could be strong enough for many structural projects. As was shown in the video our bones are created in the same way. I think the issue will be cost.

Might be a problem with Cloudflare marketing. I use it for my sites and well, but I don't think of it as a magic button / service that makes all my problems go away.

Cloudflare is a hosted reverse proxy service that handles DDOS protection. It enforcing rules on RSS pages is no different from me putting in a captcha extension on nginx or Apache and having it run on all pages by mistake.

And this isn't even a default configuration issue. This is simply a mis-configured service, no different from misconfigured haproxy / nginx / Apache / Cloudfront.
I made a joke. (whether it is funny or necessary is another thing of course, I like humor and obviously I found it funny)

Furthermore my comment was also about the shot with the chair, showing very different framing for the pixel cam.
That seems analogous to human assembly optimization vs a compiler. But the time to market is greatly reduced, designs can be vetted and a 2.0 that is optimized for frequency can be shipped later.

"There are 2 truths I've found, having lived outside Chicago, Manhattan, Atlanta (in 3 different areas), Orlando, Tampa, and Los Angeles:

1. Wherever you are, people think the drivers there are worse than other places."

I have lived in an RV and traveled full-time for six of the past seven years. I've driven a bus-sized house through more cities than most folks have visited. I feel like I could write a (very boring) book about traffic. I agree that everyone complains about traffic, and everyone does say the same tired old line about the weather changing. But, there are differences in the character of drivers and traffic in various cities.

I will agree with you about Orlando (and Florida, in general); those are some shitty drivers, too. But, Atlanta really takes the cake. I was on the road for seven months in the RV before going to visit my folks for the first time (the first time in the RV, not the first time ever). I got cut off more, and had more people ignore my turn signals, in the hour it took me to drive across Atlanta than I had in the entire seven months prior in dozens of other cities, including Los Angeles (which has surprisingly polite drivers, given its reputation). I really don't get road ragey...except in Atlanta.

I have driven in both Boston and New Jersey. While they are crowded and the drivers (particularly cabs and buses) can be somewhat aggressive, and there are some ridiculous behaviors you wouldn't see in most other places (double-parking delivery trucks, honking and even yelling a lot more than you see in most places) I wouldn't categorize them in the same league of hatefulness as Atlanta drivers. Driving in Atlanta felt downright dangerous because of how aggressive drivers are.

When people say hackers are not reliable i laugh at them. I was introduced to this hacker when i had marital issues with my husband,he helped me hack into his emails. Him and his team are professional hackers and they offer other services such as clearing bad driving and criminal records, background checks, monitoring locations, locating missing people, tracking scams e.g (online dating scams, cyber frauds), bank account hacks and transfer, facebook, whatsapp,text messages, phone records, email hacks, teaching individuals on how to become pro hackers and counter hacking hackers. They offer same day services too, and of cause he provides proof of legitimacy. If you need a hacker contact Mikhail Saratov via his email-(cyberlord7714@gmail.com). Him and his team saved my life literally, at least i owe him publicity. If he doesn’t respond tell him (Daniella) recommended him…
Keep in mind the speed at which government moves. There may be an opportunity, and it may be a large one, but I doubt it's an agile one (at least, to start with).

Although targeting smaller departments may yield much faster results!
> in order for it to do everything for us, it has to know everything about us, too

But does it? Does it have to know your birthday? (leave alone the fact that bdays are somehow part of a superkey for your identity).

Why should it know my residence, my spouse, or my CC# (with Apple's TouchID maybe it won't need to)?

Google's concept of AI is too creepy for me. It can be useful without being creepy. They're not even trying to make it less creepy.

Overlay on this the subtext that NSA and other tla's are monitoring all this (leave alone other countries). While I may trust Google, I don't trust them to not be forced to collude with the government.
Judging by the fact that the new version of the phone may still be catching fire, we may not know what the cause is. If Samsung had accurately diagnosed the problem in the first place then this incident probably wouldn't have occurred.

Someone at Samsung is having a very bad day.
I will be 47 soon and have noticed the changes you speak of in the last 7 years - 40 was well, ok..., but when 44 rolled around....

For me, the burnout/depression I was going through 38-44 was a big factor. Recovering from that took some time and then I got the "real" flu as in "lay in bed for 3 weeks, can't get up, thought I was going to die due to adrenaline rushes". That took a big physical toll and again, it took more than a few months to feel like I was back on-line.

So I'd check that first - your physical and mental health. It sounds like you are stressed despite the exercise or just plain doing too much? It does sound like too much task switching, at least for me. Assuming you are a Type 5 personality on the Enneagram (the stereotypical IT person), you're reporting common behaviors when Type 5s are under stress.

I ignored my burnout for far too long unfortunately because I was so driven; it wasn't like I immediately hit a wall but I was going down a hill that got steeper and steeper until it turned into a cliff.

Modafinil helped for awhile, but I stopped - it was only a band-aid and I did not want to become reliant on it. A Red Bull is sufficient these days; I think the B vitamins are more the reason than caffiend (I am immune to that after all these years). But that is just me. I am taking a multivitamin regularly now, CoQ10, and a few nootropics, they seem to help. So I'd suggest you think along those lines.

But at a higher level of abstraction... do you care that much anymore? Perhaps you're running into the beginnings of a midlife crisis? I have finally realized I don't. IT/development is finally tedious and boring, so I'm going back to school to get a degree in "data science". It is technical, but it's different. And I'm trying to do more creative stuff, like screenplays - all the things I promised myself I'd get to at some point while I was wasting my youth making money for --other-- people. If you have 10 different projects to deal with at work, then that is at least 4 too many, IMO, though I don't know how large they are.
The comment above said you couldn't release the info due to the EDA vendor. However, people like Jiri Gaisler have released their methodologies via papers that just describe them with artificial examples. Others use non-manufarable processes and libraries (like NanGates) so the EDA vendors feelings don't get hurt about results that don't apply to real-world processes. ;)

So, if you have a 16nm silicon compiler, I encourage you to pull a Gaisler with a presentation on how you do that with key details and synthetic examples designed to avoid issues with EDA vendors. Or just use Qflow if possible.

ARMA Is Hiring Senior Database Architect with TS in Tampa, FL
Interesting he's only been using wireless chargers. I used a Tylt wireless charger for a couple of Nexus 7s and both tablets now have a warped back due to overheating via prolonged charging.

Very curious if the fire was specifically caused by wireless charging.
What a mess. I wouldn't want to be in Samsung quality control right now.

In what has to be the nerdiest humor I've ever come up with, I suggested to some astronomer friends here at NASA that this Samsung Galaxy line be rebranded the Samsung Seifert.
When someone talks about 'light' metal, I assume they incorrectly refer to the weight of a solid cube (cm^3) of the metal, that is, the density. A wireframe, to me, is not a metal. It consists of metal but its structure, including air, is not a metal. I don't say my cupboard is made out of the lightest wood in existence because if I divide its volume (including the air inside!) by its weight, it's lighter than any cube of wood.
> Many reasons. Maybe he thinks you're indispensable to the team, but will never fully trust you any more.

It's my default position that my boss doesn't trust me. As you yourself earlier said, "I agree there should be no trust here, but we are conditioned to think that there should be." So, the answer is don't do that. Don't give in to the conditioning.

> Maybe he needs to close a deal with an external customer, and he doesn't have enough time to train up another person to take care of your job responsibilities, and he really needs to close that round of funding.

It's relatively clear when this is happening, though, because it's hard to hide when your replacement has been hired. If you can see this happening up front, you can leverage this to counter the counteroffer by offering to delay starting at the new place for increased pay (with your new employer's consent of course).

> Maybe his hiring pipeline is dry, either because your skills are hard to find, or maybe because candidates picked up on his managerial faults.

This sounds like an excellent situation to be in as an employee, as it means you have found a local minima in the supply-to-demand ratio.

> Maybe he needs time to vet external consultants to take over your job, and needs you to stick around to train them, stick around longer than 2 weeks or however long you gave notice for.

Again, it's relatively clear when this is happening, and in this case you may be able to work out a deal.

> All these situations are the worst. He thinks he needs you, but doesn't really want you around. That way you stick around in an environment where management doesn't like you, and whenever there is a viable alternative, they'll dump you for the alternative.

This sounds like literally every job ever.

Let's be clear here: at every job you've ever worked at, you're a cost center, and if you've worked yourself into a high-paying position, you're one of the largest cost centers. If your value ceases to be worth the money you're being paid they will get rid of you regardless of how they feel about you: it's hard to make feelings outweigh numbers. The problem isn't that a counteroffer has changed the situation--the situation has not changed. The problem is that you didn't understand that was the situation until you received the counteroffer.

If you're looking to be friends with your boss, I suppose that's a bad situation in that this might ruin your friendship with your boss. But if you're looking to be friends with your boss, that's going to significantly limit your career in more ways than just this. Your boss is not your friend.

CMake support in Visual Studio
The doesn't help that much since you are probably already using an index for filter criteria, the table is probably unkeyed (fact table).

The case it does work is that you are ordered on timestamp (for example), the query planner properly figures to use any filtering indexes and sequential indexes, ... magic occurs

Now the job is making an SQL statement that the query planner can actual understand and optimize since SQL lacks so much of the machinery for order-dependent processing (this was a feature when SQL was conceived remember).

Interesting that everyone is kinda down on Twitter. Shows how easily it is to be swung by the mood in the media.

Twitter may not be worth $17 billion but it certainly contains a viable business and even a few brilliant ideas waiting to escape and flourish.
Whilst trying to remain as politically neutral as possible, this the kindest possible interpretation of one thing that Clinton did.
Twitter has very limited use. It's good for news/media companies to announce headlines and perhaps for businesses to reach customers with product announcements or recalls.

But in terms of having any sort of meaningful discussion on Twitter or the sharing of anything approaching deep thought or analysis, forget it. To me, there is close to nothing of value that can be added by the ordinary individual except perhaps links to other sites.

Personally, I despise Twitter. I do not use it. Never had an account, and never will. I don't know what the future is for the company and the service, but I can only hope that if they are purchased the acquirer does it purely to remove competition from the market and has a celebratory dumpster fire with the servers. If only I was so lucky. Twitter is part of the ego machine that feeds the narcissists that pervade social media.
In effect you argument is that we don't have free will, right?

Does anyone know more about the current common retention rules?

Seems to me an easy way to cut down on the amount stored is to detect for interactions (say, other voices in the recording, definitely gun shots, etc), and then save an amount before, after and during. Maybe twice the response time for a call, for the before? The after may be harder. You can then pair it down from there. Or, could dispatch control it? Start recording when dispatched / called, stop recording when the situation is resolved, according to dispatch.
XMPP is simply a publisher/subscriber architecture. So you can just have a "global" publisher that any user subscribes to when they get on the service (registered user or not) for public viewing. The protocol isn't limited to just private chat.
