I think I sent my first email in 1981 from a Digital Equipment VAX/VMS system on DECNET. Internal to DEC you'd use :: between hops. e.g. MYVAX::YOURVAX.

Outside, UUCP paths were used. Example:
Path: utzoo!watmath!clyde!burl!ulysses!allegra!mit-eddie!rms@mit-prep (example from an RMS newsgroup post: http://tech-insider.org/free-software/research/1985/0610.htm)

And you'd reverse the host order to send mail in the other direction!

I remember sending almost everything through decvax!decwrl!mit-eddie when communicating with the outside world from DEC.

Frankly getting the routing right was a big pain in the ass. You'd sometimes have to try sending the message a bunch of times as you try to get the route spec just right.

Even so, email was pretty great. It was also very much "old hat" when the world finally got exited about it in the 90's.
PCIe, SATA, SAS, Fibre Channel, Infiniband, and data center flavors of Ethernet are all based on very similar serdes technology that uses multi-GHz binary encoding over shielded cabling. http://www.design-reuse.com/articles/10541/multi-gigabit-ser...

1G/2.5G/5G/10G Base-T Ethernet uses fairly different sub-GHz multi-level encoding over unshielded cabling.
"you spend your life ignoring your mother, then she's gone and now you care about her life?"

Sometime you don't realize what you have until it's gone, as the old saying goes.

Besides, whatever emotional or psychological issues existed between this person and his mother, they don't discredit the central points of this article, which were to bring attention to the complexities surrounding the question of euthanasia, to question whether euthanasia is being performed in cases which aren't hopeless after all, and to ask at what point should euthanasia be legally permitted.

I'd say the peak strength must be 22-26, because 18-years-olds are really thin and lean (source: I love men ;)) – unless they've been practising musculation, but once again, if they practice musculation at 24, they'll be much bigger. But it takes well above 2 years to train a professional, so profesional recruitment takes them earlier. However, concerning draft followed by almost-immediate use on the battlefield, given this subjective data, it makes little sense to me, physically, to draft them so young.

Inventables | Chicago, IL | ONSITE

My employer, Inventables, is hiring software engineers and graphic designers. We make and sell CNC carving machines for schools, libraries, makerspaces, and home users. We write software for every step of the process, from creating a design to driving the machine. That means there's a huge variety of technical challenges and design challenges.

If you're a programmer or designer who spends their evenings working with powertools or Aduinos, we definitely want to talk with you. If you don't even know what CNC is, but the idea of working on software to educate and enable the next generation of makers is exciting to you, we want to talk to you as well.

I've been working here for several months, and every Monday, I wake up excited for another week of working here. If you're in Chicago (or thinking of moving here), and you want to know the details of why, hit me up.
It's a good point, they are complex. But on a team doing a complex spa, you'd need someone who's a tooling expert right?

Does it person think that programming is like cooking vegetables ?

I am tired of people treating programming like some vocational trade subject - or something that can be picked up over the weekend.

Being a good programmer in any sub-domain, either it be web, robotics, javascript, python, C++ requires a lot of study.

The attrition rate for any serious subject - accounting, medicine, engineering, etc is really high. How are people expecting programming to always be simple and low paid ? Its professional work just like accounting, medicine and any traditional engineering.

That is the only sense in which a 'universal file system' can win. There is no other context. Your personal usage habits are completely irrelevant ("I haven't had to shoot a gun since the first gulf war, so to me it's a massive surprise that anyone still fights wars at all.")

I don't use USB keys. I don't have any windows systems. But I do have UEFI, and that is based on FAT as well. Disregarding my grandmother's technical prowess, this technology is here to stay, and sticking your head in the sand about it doesn't advance any causes.
It sounds to me like it's a great framework, but "Angular 2" is a misnomer at this point. Maybe the "Angular" name will entice 1.x users to it, but it seems like the Angular team could have created "MasterBlaster 1.0, the successor to Angular" or something, still got some hype, and avoided a lot of grumpiness.

Throwing a little bit more data into the conversation. Filtering to only the verified reviews shows 16 reviews:

8x 5 star reviews
1x 4 star reviews
1x 3 star reviews
4x 2 star reviews
2x 1 star reviews

Mean star rating of verified reviews: 3.5625

That's a lot closer to the overall star rating.

You couldn't build the Uber of today without significant resources, however you could indeed build the version of Uber that made them popular and got them access to those resources in a weekend. Uber started out as a black car app. They got lucky, went viral, and the founders were well connected enough to get funding to build out much of the advanced functionality you're referring to after the app already became popular.

It isn't the advanced functionality and scalability you're talking about here (that was built in reaction to its popularity) that made it popular. It was their MVP.

My impression is that a 10Gbase-T PHY requires far more than 10x as many transistors as a 1000base-T PHY; maybe closer to 100x. This caused a death spiral where high prices lead to low volume that prevents prices from dropping.
You're not going to find a lot of people jumping through that hoop, given that 5 seconds with Google is all that it takes. This isn't some controversial developmental theory, and this isn't a formal debate.
I tried UDF for a few months on a macOS/Linux/Windows triple boot. It doesn't work reliably enough. I've switched to ext2 using e2fsd and Paragon (which I paid for) on Windows and macOS respectively. Fingers crossed.

I wish someone would port F2FS to Windows and macOS. This could be a good starting point for macOS.
I have a lot of respect for Amazon here. Having every product have a 5 star review is great for Amazon in the short term, it lets you "do your research" and hit that one-click ordering button without hesitation. Making the scores go down will probably reduce sales (of items that would make people unhappy anyway, but reduced sales are reduced sales).

Long term, if nobody trusts Amazon reviews, then they'll turn elsewhere to do that research. And elsewhere probably links to a retailer other than Amazon, that you might click on because you happen to be there.

It is weird that I have to be happy about the right long-term business decision, but I guess that's the world we live in. Every day I think Amazon is going to grow complacent and slowly cease to exist. That day is not today ;)
> Having an effective strategy to skirt regulations probably requires just as much knowledge of the regs as a company who complies with them.

Not really. The "effective strategy to skirt regulations" seems to be "when someone makes an issue out of it, we'll burn investor money on PR and lobbying against the regulations, and on paying any penalties that get assessed for violations".

For that, you don't need much advance study of the regulations, just a deep supply of investor funds.
The employees' attitude is the most important factor to consider in my opinion.
Yup, the system is pretty broken, 4.5 stars is "pretty good", anything else is questionable. This is because the average is a mean, and the scale is 1 to 5 stars.

The average of 1 and 5 is 3, so 3, not 2.5, is a "mixed reactions" score. With two 1s and one 5 the average is 2. So if you ever see something with a two star average, run. With a single 5 star review, it takes 16 one star reviews to bring the average down to over star, to reflect the majority opinion.
"EMCAScript2015" is a mouthful, and I suspect a lot of people would assume it's referring to the "old" version of JavaScript just because it's not the current year.

It might be the more "technically" correct name, but from a branding/marketing/communication point of view, ES6 is vastly superior in my opinion.
Well, IANAL but I think the original creator of FLIF could still decide give a special license to Adobe if they want to negotiate one, no?

From a few things I've read, I don't think this is specific to Kingston. It's apparently pretty common for offshore factories to optimize for cost while keeping the product apparently the same.

There is a principal-agent problem. The company whose brand is on the line needs to be diligent about catching it in QA.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Walmart will ask the manufacturer to build a special lower-quality version of the same item to keep costs down. So a direct price comparison can be misleading.
True. True.

But a lot of the Tokyo Metro is overcapacity (Hibiya Line especially, IIRC), and they didn't build a line that competes with their own line. Isn't it convenient that they chose to "help" JR relieve their capacity problems, without worrying about their own ;)

I stand by my argument that railroads can compete with each other.
Then compare the size of the state and the amount of economic freedom in these countries to Brazil's and everything will become clear.
If It Wanted, Google Could Deanonymize a Large Number of Tor Connections
Some readers may remember previous comments I've made, which boil down to this...

Uber, Airbnb, Lyft, and all other "sharing economy" apps are retailers and they do no control the products they sell.

To put it more succinctly than this article, first-of-a-kind sharing economy apps have overcome the psychological, legal, and technological hurdles, effectively paving the way for their competition. Once the road has been paved, expect bespoke copycats to come along (like Juno).

Retailers are historically a bad investment folks.
> AI plus high resolution imaging

Unless they are imaging every item sold I don't see how that helps. Unscrupulous seller uploads high quality images of the real item, and delivers counterfeits.

Conterfeits are the biggest reason I don't buy more on Amazon. I can't say I've ever received a counterfeit item, but the stories are so widespread that I always have that fear.

$80K - $140k - Special Ops (Coding || Writing || Design || Products || Research || Business || Venture Capital || M&A)

Hiring incredibly smart folks with a no-nonsense approach to communicating, creating, and maintaining relationships. This is the fastest way to become an insider in SV / tech.

This role will put you in front of every kind of project you can imagine. Get on a flight to Southeast Asia to negotiate a contract with high ranking government officials. Code (or hire coders to create) a MVP for 3d printer IDE. Re-design everything about company in 48 hours (logo, name, press kit, marketing message, hiring, etc.) and then see it live on Techcrunch. Diligence a $2M investment. Edit an masterpiece for Forbes. Co-create a new university class on corporate venture capital. Jump in to help a team scaling from 100k to 100M users in 4 weeks.

These are REAL examples from the last 12 months, which hopefully provide you a sense of the adventure you are in for.

You'll work on a tiny team of brilliant folks on a range of special projects I am involved in. It's important we hit it off: I like no no-nonsense folks who jump in and make everything they touch better. Communicators rule the world, so you better be good at writing and speaking. Your ambitions should include something grand. You think it's worth it to pick up the refreshments and chauffeur a guest to an engagement in order to get 10 minutes with a world famous entrepreneur.

I like people who have done the hard things, failed (or not), and still have the curiosity and enthusiasm to get back up and go full speed ahead. Most importantly, you need to be really really good at something.

Please email my EA keela@fu.team with the following subject line: Apply: Special Projects (SKILLSET) - NAME - REMOTE|TOKYO|SF

The body should include an introduction and personal note SKILLSET should be something you're spectacular at.

The biggest difference between blood and organs is scale. Organs are sold for largest sums of money which means that there is much more money and time available to do full medical work ups and tests to verify the quality of the organs.
Well first of all we were not talking about Oracle but about Windows licenses.

Second I did not touch the legal aspect, just stated what the EULA contains and that it might be enforced by technical means. The law has its differences all over the world, so let's not go down that rabbit hole.
Apollo returns the data in observable form. You never have to deal with Redux directly if you don't want to. Check out the Angular docs for more details.
Wow! I had no idea that there were any links to long term problems with lasix. I have been considering the procedure for over 15 years, but never pulled the trigger. If there are long term risks, I think that I will just stick to glasses.
Also I suspect that people who leave positive reviews for products that they get receive more products to review.
It's complex but it's worth learning. You can do a lot with it; transpiling, bundling, source maps, css modules, autoprefixing, concatenation, minification, etc. Along with npm scripts and a little shell scripting you can pretty much do whatever your project needs, including auto Dev deploy, ci, one touch versioned stage/prod deploys with rollback etc. And it seems to be the common base people are building the best plugins for these days. It's far less verbose than grunt or gulp, and plugins are not needed for every little thing as a wrapper. But when you need plugins, there is a great system for them, and a ton of community plugins available.
20 people is more than enough to build and support these things...
For apps which need it, everything generally happens in both places. The server-side render fetches all the appropriate data and displays a fully rendered version of the page.

That being said, I think you should carefully consider whether server-side rendering is necessary for your application before adding it. It does complicate your stack and is not worth it unless either first-load performance or SEO are important to you.

The ethical problem there is how hard the hospital works to save a patient as opposed to letting them die so they can harvest the organs.
Why the dismissive "huh?" Was there anything I said that was incoherent or not easily understood?

"Does it have a better story for cache management or something?" I think this question shows a misunderstanding of what I'm trying to convey. I can't really offer a set of deep technical answers when contrasting the various JavaScript frameworks. Most of my use cases for front end development comes down to some pretty simple requirements. I just know that I ran a couple commands, changed a few configuration values, and then got going with what I wanted to do.

Ember had a low barrier to entry for me. There are a lot of community resources for how to integrate it with my back ends of choice, it has a rigorous set of conventions that are easy to cognitize, and the practices around Ember haven't changed for a long time.

Take a look at this Reddit /r/programming thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/55okik/how_it_...

The top two comments are about how difficult it is to determine what is an appropriate stack. A lot of programmers solve small problems that benefit from simple solutions. My anecdotal comment was that I found Ember to be a simple, stable, all-in-one solution that worked well with Ruby on Rails - which is the framework and language that best solved the problem that I was addressing.

For a React specific comment, I think Facebook recognizes this problem and it's why they rolled out their React starter CLI tool. WalmartLab's Electrode platform also looks like an admirable attempt to address the "I'm not that great at this so please configure this for me so I can just start learning and being productive" crowd.

I also really like it when a front end framework shows strong preference for and coupling with a back end framework. Vue, for example, has a strong linking to Laravel. The communities for each overlap and it's easy to get going with both. The Laravel generator, for example, sets up a Vue example so it's easier to get started even though Vue is a wholly separate project that can be used with any back end.
Does anyone know about Azure auto-scaling? It says "most [VM's] include load-balancing and auto-scaling free of charge", is that true and is it any more friendly to hobbyists than the other two?

It was very disappointing to see the auto-scaling services for GCP and AWS basically require a $20/mo load balancer right off the bat. I have an app that is quietly puttering away on a single Digital Ocean droplet, but could at any moment, uh, make it big and I want to be ready. But I can't really stomach the $20 just to turn on auto-scaling somewhere.

> They also need to ban merchants from hounding me to review their products. One of them even called me on my phone. I don't know how they got my number.

Part of the shipping information, I guess. (I know it's "fulfilled by Amazon" but I guess the merchant gets that.)

I find it super annoying. I am not quite willing to go in and give them 1 star reviews for the outreach, but I have no qualms about marking the email as spam.
