Contrary to popular belief, there's no evidence to suggest that artificial sweeteners are bad for you ("cause cancer" or otherwise).

I personally never drink soda anymore except for diet ginger ale. The acidity is still there but in my opinion it's worth satisfying that type of sweet carbonation craving. No sugar and no caffeine, also moves your taste away from the sickly sweetness of standard colas.

An even more mild option is sparkling water, which to me is sometimes the most refreshing thing on earth and sometimes so bland that I can't stomach it.

Hi all,
The stack which we used in our organisation is,
1) Fluentd - for log line transporting
2) Elastic search - for indexing
3) Kibana - for viewing (remote log viewer)
Maybe for regulatory aspects in the U.S. (deflect lawsuits or something)

Outside the U.S., my only experience with MIT graduates was them being hired on the spot. Almost no interview.
Well, I would be outraged too if someone told me our Justice System is made entirely of people without balls.
Oh don't look at Dublin prices then. Or Paris. Or even Frankfurt or Sweden.
Cloning worked fine. I could not push/sync or auto sync over authenticated http. So I could pull down code, and serve that code. But the only way to sync would have been push over ssh, or pull from the server - which doesn't really scale with 26+ clients.

[ed: I'm away from the computers I tested on, but I remember I found quite a few stories like this, which all seemed to be a few years old, and had no resolution:

http://fossil-users.fossil-scm.narkive.com/iM7AQS3b/authenti...

Which is why I asked if anyone has been able to, with a current Fossil build, to:

On server "a" (in my case running Ubuntu 16.10, but testing both machines running Windows 10 would also be interesting): run fossil init ; fossil ui #change auth, register normal users user1, user2; fossil serve

Clone from a as user1, user2 on machine b with defined passwords (I got this far).

On b, run fossil ui, edit wiki as user1 and/or user2 - have sync work. Or edit and commit code and have sync work.

It's texts like this that make me feel my occasional donations to MSF are well spent.
They're not only helping people, they seem to care how to do it and consider political implications. Because after all, we won't fix the lack of global health access purely based on donations, we need political and economical changes that make medicine affordable to everyone who needs it.
It's a big city, there are ugly parts, and there are pretty parts. Same for Dresden, it has some really lovely buildings, but anything that was built after the 50s is ugly as sin.
Donations make great headlines but rarely sustainable fixes. Pfizer do seem to be odd one out here. "They continue to offer donations that give Pfizer a tax break". That seems damning, but I know nothing about global drug pricing, and current developing world issues, so let's take 20 lunchtime minutes and see what I can find out.

wholesale price $17.00
(developing world src:wikipedia)
AMC subsidised price $3.50
GSK Offer $3.05
MSF Want $1.66

For a vaccine introduced in the US in 2000 and France, Germany, and the UK in 2006. There's a need to research further strains mainly found in the developing world.

There's also the AMC programme (Gates Foundation and 5 Govt contributions), GAVI (Gates, World Bank, WHO, Unicef).

GSK charge less than Pfizer as their vaccine covers slightly fewer strains.

GAVI seems to have been remarkably successful [1], and $10bn in funding over its lifetime, 75% infectious disease control, 25% basic healthcare. They're in more countries than currently targeted but rollout within countries is slightly behind. Countries are still applying to join GAVI. They have systematically increased manufacturers for vaccines, including developing world producers for all.

Two or three more manufacturers of Pneumococcal vaccine are in pipeline. Not clear when, but MSF seem to indicate next year for first.

--

So, what do I get from that?

20, OK 25 minutes doesn't get you much, reports tend to be long. :)

I've a new found respect for Bill Gates. From a world where vaccination rates were declining in the 90s, he's achieved a huge change.

$3.50 a dose is perhaps a better ask, given strains covered and other subsidised prices. Get that then ask everyone to go lower. Or ask $1.66 and get ignored.

Can't quickly find out research cost of these, or production cost, so impossible to estimate what cost price becomes, or additional costs to research additional developing world strains. High price doesn't only mean profiteering.

Products appear to be in pipeline from GSK (in collaboration with London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, and Medical Research Council, Gambia) - near Phase III, Serum Institute of India - under development, Merck has a candidate going into Phase II. So competition coming soon(tm).

Have you considered maybe a few people looked into the ark and the whole nation was punished as a result? or at least 50,070 of the nation? you are assuming everyone that was killed looked into the ark. Have you considered that maybe the fact that the ark symbolized the covenant between God and the Israelites meant that any disrespect or mistreatment of this ark by any Israeli would cause disaster on all of Israel?

Impressive research. I don't really mind the repost if the article went in fact in oblivion while we should have paid attention. A gentle reminder for everyone to sometimes visit the 'new' section and upvote the interesting part.

Maybe an AI data mining process could know what's interesting based on.... wait, no, that's a bad idea :)
Hmmm I kind of disagree there. I'm having to make new friends and get out of my comfort zone. In time I'm going to start exploring other areas. I'm really keen to get collaborators on board for instance.

Nothing is perfect - this was just the best move for me at the time :)
What's interesting is that in the UK, Corbyn was just elected (again) the president of the second major party (not currently in power) on a platform of stopping UK's nuclearly-armed submarines (essentially the UK's only nuclear deterrent). Which is similar, yet a bit different (the US can protect itself even without NATO, the UK can't without nuclear submarines), to what Trump's saying, yet (many) people still wanted it!
Yet another reason not to ship 4 OSs the same month every year.
While it's a very interesting analysis, it kinda reinforce the idea that it's down to luck. Sure you can make your post on the week end to increase your chances (even though I don't understand that given there is only so many room on the hot page, if every one is more likely to go on the top page then no one is).
I think it's just the matter that people going to the "news" section tend to upvote the link that are already upvoted. The only way to increase that is to artificially bump up the upvotes by asking friends from different parts of the world to upvote your article while it's in the news section (note that if you cannot give them a link to your post directly or their vote won't be taken into account).

And to protect ISIS! ISIS! Europe is going to be nuked while protecting ISIS. I Wonder how will we read about this in a few decades. Maybe the term "european" will be synomym of idiots.
So maybe we can agree it relate to faith, not facts.

I choose to focus more on the actual phone recording than to the dev post because at least you can hear both positions.

Indeed something had gone wrong in the process they agreed on phone. But it's words against words. So I really think it's better not to chose to believe in one over another, because that would always be tainted by our own personal predisposition (which of course may differ).

If your customer is a German business, and you would like to visit them, it's very likely their headquarters are in West Germany, which is far away. So you don't have much country offices of multinational companies in Berlin. It's very different from other countries' biggest cities.

I guess it works better for pure internet companies that sell directly to consumers.

> That's a dumb argument then. See, when you do due diligence you should assume that the company lies.

I would agree that a certain amount of healthy...embellishment is to be expected from a company when talking to investors. Maybe I'm just naive since I don't play in the VC games, but if our first interaction as businesspeople is a lie, you aren't getting anything from me.

Bending the truth is one thing: evidence shows that Theranos at the direction of Holmes herself outright fabricated evidence to show their testing worked, knowing damn well it didn't.

I honestly don't understand what is taking so long. Everyone involved in this companies board should be behind bars for the remainder of their life. This wasn't some fucking ordering food app that went wrong, this was thousands of people's medical decisions.

From his response "helped a relative get started by paying for her Apple’s Developer Program Membership using my credit card. I also handed her test hard"

It was a relative, so I don't get your question's relevance to the situation.
The point is "serverless" is a sham. Your clients still need to rely on another service API Gateway to communicate with the outside world. So stop with this stupid marketing.

Your are selling a basic pubsub architecture as something "innovative" when the only real innovation is the pricing. That's the exact definition of marketing, and at the same time you are making the community of web developers sound like idiots that don't understand what a server is. You can make plenty of money without being missleading, why do you feel the need to use a misleading language ?

There is a server, period.

I'm fine with the WSJ doing this. Businesses are free to monetize their content as they see fit.

If anything, I'm saying "don't vote for paygate links" to whoever clicked to upvote on the OP link.

Thanks. watchOS I know by name, tvOS is totally new to me.
Funny that it has to be its own thing.
I think this is going to hurt them a lot but it's nowhere near enough to "end" them. Also, as an S7 edge owner I'm more than satisfied with the device. My next phone (2 years later) is probably going to be from Samsung again, unless apple actually makes a compelling phone again.

I think there would be relatively less people who won't buy a samsung because of this event. There are other much larger reasons.
It's statistics I believe. 6 billion vs 318 million. Beside that the people who get the chance to move to USA are cream of that 6 billion.
Not even that, just don't ship a new OS for your computer every year. I know they're not big changes like say, Windows 98 -> XP, but still.

It's also very possible that the developer is not telling the whole story. It's not like Apple does this kind of thing every day and their statement is fairly clear.

They also likely have additional information, like the IP addresses and timestamps in use when the reports were made. Keep in mind that Apple doesn't make money (directly) from taking the guy's app down, and even the guy's story doesn't really make sense.

It hinges on the idea that he bought the developer program for a relative, who then used a bunch of his devices years later to leave a bunch of fraudulent positive reviews for his apps and negative ones for competitors. Really?

It sounds to me like Apple had him dead to rights and gave him an out, despite having no need to do so. He knows he screwed up AND publicized this with his blog, so he can fix it with his blog or he can lie in the bed he made. He stuck with his made-up story to save face (at the expense of Apple) so they're sticking with the original decision.
More like bad-news meeting where I work.

Twitter's Dorsey Rallies Staff Around Independent Strategy in Internal Memo

"50k+ employees companies"

Funny I was going to mention exactly that, having been there.

1) In my experience it doesn't scale past 1000 or so people and once you literally have offices all over the planet you run into timezone issues. So state/city/country whatever it takes to get attendance below 1000.

2) An appropriate party game is something like duct taping 1000 envelopes of gift certificates underneath each chair, no matter how little, and then surprising people halfway thru when about a quarter of the attendees are asleep, and opening a trading market to wake everyone up. Or a raffle halfway thru to wake people up. An inappropriate party game is watching the execs have a rap battle, or watching the execs play blackjack, or trying to get the audience involved in anything "teambuilding"

3) Speaking of "no matter how little" above, that doesn't count for food. People drove across entire states for hours and rearranged their private lives extensively to attend... serving cold pancakes and cold breakfast sausage (but only two per person!) is a false economy WRT morale. If you're standing in line for food and the primary comment by coworkers is "thank god I stopped for breakfast on the way here" then your meeting failed.

4) OPs article correctly mentioned top line metrics. Oh god help me I've spent hours in meetings listening to production managers of a plant I'll never see or visit spend fifteen minutes talking about the inner details of how they modified a grease gun to better match the viscosity of a new dielectric grease and you've got an entire auditorium of a thousand blank expressions tuned out. If you think the entire company cares about how you reorganized the pencils in supply room #35 in plant #51 you are simply wrong. If you're around long enough you'll attend all hands meeting where no amount of caffeine can save you. Just awful.

5) Front line supvr will use all hands meetings as a punishment. You broke the build you have to go. Its enough to make people go postal or at least call in sick the day of the meeting. If all hands meeting sick/vacation days are 10% or more than non-all hands meetings, you are doing meetings wrong.

6) Likewise don't tell the execs, but anyone attending remotely or calling in, isn't paying any attention.
When I worked at "analytics", i.e. solving issues right at client's place, we noticed that the people who can write code there are special. They have skill of resolving issues quickly under pressure, but have less skill of implementing hard things even at our noiseless office. I think it is a waste of resources to put hard-skilled group in uncomfortable conditions and vice-versa. We let some of them away from that because we had both hard tasks and quick tasks.

The conversation focuses on price, but the other points are key.

1. There's a huge tech scene in Berlin and it's easy to meet bright people.

2. People want to live in Berlin. The art and music scene attract people.

But you can't move the focus back with that toggle.

Hey Cheriot! I totally agree!
They want to meet with you because of what you said in your e-mail. So bring evidence to substantiate what you wrote.

I'm not sure what you meant by "While their offering is an enterprise product, I liked the product and cold-emailed him seeking the position".

Maybe I'm reading to much into it. But you sound despondent about the prospect about working with an enterprise product.

If that is the case, remember, a job works both ways. It's not fair on yourself or the employer to work for something you're not truly enthusiastic about.

Good luck!
There's no support yet for non-git version control systems, right? I gather they want to add support for this via extensions, but the underlying APIs aren't there yet.

Yeah, I think that would be the best approach. The only problem being that I live in a country where difference in pay when you work in a local company and if you work freelance is 7-8 folds. Literary. If it were like 2-3 folds I might think about sacrificing that for knowledge but this is just crazy.
As a medical student, I bring the AI future up a lot. For some reason, my fellow students immediately assume I mean general AI, where it somehow assumes all roles of a physician.

Thank you, I think this approach will be useful as well.
