They are also a sort of crown jewel for South Korea, and probably far above the "too big to fail" threshold there. If worse came to worst, they'd be bailed out by the government.

They're not going anywhere as a corporation.

I'd expect a certain amount of bloodletting in their leadership, depending on exactly how bad the recall and consequent damage to their mobile electronics business is. But it's not an existential threat to the entire organization.
But not across a whole array, probably!
By fast enough, I mean this:

The tradeoff between go build and go run is that go build makes subsequent runs faster, but it creates a somewhat large binary that takes up disk space.

So, when I say go run is fast enough, I mean that the speedup of using go build is not big enough to justify the extra disk space required to store those binaries, compared to the speed hit we get from using go run each time (IMO of course).
You have to admit though that "diversity" is mentioned a lot and striving for "diversity" in fact makes it easier for women to get into management position. I am not saying it's the only factor but it is one impossible to deny.

My ex husband was career army. While in the military, he double majored in CS and history. He was a socially awkward nerd. He rose though the ranks quickly. He once admitted that while excelled at the technical stuff, the fact that he was married to me was a big part of why he was a decent manager once he got promoted to the military equivalent of mid level manager.

There have been studies that indicate women think of "morality" different from men -- that their idea of morality is more about caring about people. Perhaps the same traits -- caring about others -- that help make women good mothers also help make them good managers. The paternal role is typically different from the maternal one.
I'd like to back this up. I went from a ~6/12 company to a 0/12 company, and man is it painful. I knew going in it was going to get low marks, and saw it as a challenge to try to push it to 6/12 level if possible (a nice career highlight imho), but I drastically underestimated how taxing it would be.

The biggest factor I didn't consider: People who exist in a 0/12 system are at best willing to tolerate it and at worst have engineered it. Change within that population will be challenging, even if they all publicly claim things need to change. You end up dancing on a razor's edge of being a positive change agent and being made a pariah. All while trying to do actual work.

Here's the correlations between MBTI dimensions and the "big five" personality traits that are commonly used in social-sciences research:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myers%E2%80%93Briggs_Type_Indi...

When I look at those, I think "Not everything, but not nothing either". A correlation of 0.7+ is pretty high for anything in the social sciences - by comparison, the correlation between intelligence and genetics is about 0.4. It's certainly a lot higher than astrology, which has a correlation of roughly 0.0 with anything other than birthdate.

A lot of the criticism of MBTI is that it breaks people down into 16 arbitrary categories, and there's no way a single category can reflect everything about a person. This is true; there is no way a single category will reflect everything about a person. But we break people down into arbitrary categories all the time - race, social class, profession, job title, political party, ethnicity, place of residence, generation, etc. Categorization by MBTI brings all of the pitfalls of these - you're stereotyping, and you're going to miss important details about the person themself - as well as all the benefits, in the form of a quick mental shorthand to draw inferences about their future behavior on little data.

You can think of it in "Thinking fast and slow" terms: MBTIs and other social categories are in the "thinking fast" category, where you make quick but error-prone judgments on limited information, while actually getting to know someone is the "thinking slow" side, where you get a much more accurate picture of who they are at the cost of significantly higher effort. Indeed, the MBTI has a dimension for this (iNtuitive vs. Sensing), and I've found that online MBTI tests tend to overrepresent the number of Ns in the population compared to offline, professionally-given tests, because Ns tend to be more attracted to the MBTI as a way of thinking about the world.

I think the real problem is the battery was itself sealed with an airtight plastic wrapping. If consumers could just pull out the lithium plates, patch new electrolytic material over wherever they were shorting, then zip the battery back up, then they'd be fine.

And another thing! Back in my day, if you had a transistor go bad in a discrete logic unit, you could just pop out the card and solder on a new one. But kids these days with their fancy integrated circuits...
All this focus on women and minorities obscures the issue.

White males can have problems fitting in, too. Being born into a low social class is probably more damning to your future than any external quality you might have.

We need to accept that being inclusive isn't about focusing on a single group - that's singling people out again - but realize that people are being left out of whatever good thing we have as a society for any number of reasons.

Understand this, and just be more accepting of people in general.
But launchd can also be a pain in the ass -- just ask anybody who tried to make a sandboxed app with a helper tool. Launchd is poorly documented once you go beyond the basics. Some things that should be simple are almost impossible, eg. trying to find out where a job with a certain label is coming from. Some parts of macOS (eg. ServiceManagement) use hidden, undocumented interfaces to launchd, and if something goes wrong with them there's no way to fix it except create a new user account. And for no reason at all that stuff changes with new releases of macOS.

I understand why some people may prefer a simpler tool.

Thanks for the link. I read through the three main papers. Very interesting. The project seems to be dead though. Why hasn't there been any development in the past few years? Did you guys reach a hurdle you couldn't overcome? Or have people's interests shifted? Thanks for taking the time to answer Kenneth.
We have that and it's called `bower`. We moved away from it because having two package managers to manage javascript (one for front-end and one for back-end) is more insane than the issue you described.
I remember one for Facebook that, because you couldn't delete your account, would systematically edit and wreck every single bit of data it could touch, replacing it with random junk.

Yes, that is the claim of white/male privilege.

However, the implication of saying that something "usually" doesn't happen to women, is that it usually happens to men. These were very specific benefits that do not usually happen to anyone. The statement is just as invalid as a privilege denyer saying "poor white people have less privilege than rich black people", except they were made for "your side" rather than "the enemy's side".
"Sorry, you're unborn child was killed by a virus we could have stopped but we spent that money on a rocket."

This kind of argument always gets to me. There's no inherent value in money, it's just a means to the end of organizing society. If the financial system prevents us from going to Mars and providing health care simultaneously, you should not give up on either, but fix the broken system.

Sadly, we're apparently too greedy and stupid to do it...
Because hackers have become so aggressive. It's no longer just clandestine groups of anonymous people working through the internet. There are industrial scale state-sponsored hacking efforts across the world now, actively focused on exploiting every single release of every single OS, and it's only getting worse. Also, with the wide scale adoption of broadband internet it's become possible to adopt an "evergreen" model for OS updates now, much like browsers have been doing for years.
:o. I didn't. Thanks!
Chinese 5000 mAh is around 1000 mAh metric
This is awesome!

I always loved Arduino as it promoted a few core ideas (apps are highly portable, the environment is standardized over boards and devices) - this allows the hobbyist / stack overflow reader to make some awesome hacks in a few hours and really reduces the barrier to entry for maker projects. However, in the last few years, I've wanted a similar type of environment for all the Linux boards that now clutter my desk - the ability to run different apps on multiple boards without having to understand the depths of GPIO alternative function mapping and quirks of various distros.

Having a docker container approach where the app is sandboxed away is the right approach I think for this, but there should be a "standard API" as well put in place that the apps that be written against (and bindings to python, rust etc...) that is also emulated in a desktop or webpage environment. This container doesn't support any HDMI output or full Debian environment - just a basic API to start with. Add PIP/Cargo etc.. for advanced use cases. A movement away from Arduino might be around the corner if there is something as accessible but much more powerful available. The block is no doubt "power management" - suspending/hibernating Linux boards for battery operation etc...

I hacked up a version of resinOS last year (using Android as the base Linux port) and running docker on a root FS but never took it anywhere as the day job (a different kind of startup) takes most cycles still. Can't wait to install this later on a few Pi's :)
If you're writing a tool that's written in Javascript, you need an implementation of Javascript to make it work. Node, while focused on being "Javascript on the server", is also a really convenient way to get going with a Javascript runtime.

So yeah, in theory, you could create a whole 'nother binding to a runtime just for front-end tooling. Nobody's found node lacking enough to do that.
Yes, it replaces the client, but it uses the same package repository and package format.

Unfortunately, that's not always good for the user. There are things I do like once a year; update my drivers license online, for example. If the web site is "good enough" and never updated, then great, I know how long it will take and what steps to take--I may even have automated most of it. If they change the website every 6 months with wiz-bang features I have to relearn it, I have no idea how long it'll take, and it may not even work. A web service is kind of a bad example since it require managing a backend.

To my parents, opening a spreadsheet or listening to music is the same. They lack the lexicon to discover newer interface trends like the hamburger icon, or ribbon interface.

Many people used IE6 because there was a huge investment in it. I agree it was terrible to support and write against, but I don't see any problem with using a payroll system that was written 10 years ago and dependant on IE6 if your needs haven't changed. It seems silly to constantly update or completely rewrite something that's working just fine if needs haven't changed. It just sucks that they would use the same browser for payroll as they do for browsing the Internet.
Thanks, I've done that now, hopefully you can find my submission I did put 'security vulnerability' as the top line in the body. If that doesn't narrow it down search for 1635976 also in the body.

It's an either an information disclosure issue or an authorization issue (depending on your point of view), I won't say more on here.
Very true. While I had assumed that most people would toss their gadgets once their functionality had been disabled, I wouldn't buy a new fridge or other appliance just because I can't load cat pics on it anymore.

It's more of a failure to double check that npm runs when you change the SSL cert you bundled with it.

I think it's a great example of moving a little too quickly, honestly. Especially since it bricked plenty of npm installs instead of being "just another bug".

We're just going in circles already. It's already been explained that the way the question is written doesn't make sense if there are no file descriptors. I can see why you want to interpret it the way you do, but I don't understand why you refuse to admit that it's possible to read it such that this is undefined behavior.
There are two problems with using Falcon 9s as reusable missile.

First: missiles needs to be always ready. They need to fire as soon as needed. A rocket like Falcon 9 uses liquid oxygen which cannot be stored for long period of time. Nowadays most missiles uses solid fuel (as the ones used in the Shuttle boosters)

Second: A booster that lands is not immediately reusable. you need to refill it, replace the pyrotechnic chains, put back the payload on top of it, etc. During that time, your missile is at risk of being destroyed by an enemy counter measure.

Submarines dispatched around the globe are already packed with nuclear missile using solid fuel that can already destroy any place any time.

I dunno, man -- I feel like constant user-experience problems, bizarre hardware issues, and endless configuration tweaking is both unreliable and bullshit. I often contemplate switching to a Linux system, even if just for a change of pace, but I can't justify giving up a platform that allows me to get the vast majority of what I need to do done without waging war against some other programmer's neuroses.

> Isn't that backwards? (ie. if Samsung failed, South Korea's economy would take a massive hit?)

They are both true. If Samsung faltered, the Korean economy would take a hit, but the government would almost certainly prop it up such that it wouldn't actually fail.

Presumably a bailout would take the form of an injection of liquidity sourced from sovereign debt denominated in KRW, much like the US bank bailout a few years ago. If it were large enough, it could depress the won against other global currencies. In the limiting case, the Koreans can always -- if they really need to -- print money until their exports get attractive again. People may not want to buy Samsung phones, but they'll certainly buy Samsung steel or Samsung heavy industrial equipment, if the price is right.
Monitored tag filters, like on https://lobste.rs/, would be great for HN. There is too much randomness on HN now.

I just want to point out that the P-curves need not have unique features that allow for more efficient computations during code breaking in order to be "weak" or "backdoored". Simply the fact that the curves are standardized may allow expedited code breaking. We saw this with POISON NUT/CORAL REEF (where specialized hardware (PIQ Blade), pre-computation work, and an otherwise fine small standardized set of primitives allowed for rapidly broken encryption).

I would prefer it if we made human settlement of the oceans a reality first. Human settlement of space has health problems that are not yet solved such as vision damage from zero gravity environments and brain damage from cosmic radiation.

Making underwater habitats is far more practical in the short term. Experience in making closed environments for human habitation of the ocean would be useful when the problems with space exploration are solved.
Where would a CI server retrieve dependencies from, if not either over the network, or from within the repository? Do you keep a module / library cache on the CI server itself? In other words, what do supply as input to your CI process, besides a Git URL?
The Happy Healthy Nonprofit
It's all marketing really. Many of the devs who struggle the most have some difficulty giving themselves credit for things they've done - they're modest perhaps. I think when I write some of these resumes they are more accepting of them because it's me bragging about their accomplishments.

Unfortunately in the resume writing game, there are lots of failed writers that were never involved in hiring. They are good writers but don't know the audience, so people end up paying substantial amounts for a nicely worded resume that doesn't result in interviews.
The author just appears to be angry at things he doesn't care about that others do.

I mean, 'no one can read a book a week' - what? Of course you can, you just have to enjoy reading enough it's a priority, and so you choose to dedicate the time to it. When a book comes out I like, I'll spend an evening reading it cover to cover, because I hate reading in little chunks. I don't do that every week, because I have other hobbies and things to do, but the idea it's impossible is silly.
Oh man, I emailed the creators a year ago when they first released the site, encouraging them to make the frontend open source so the performance and layout issues could be fixed by the community (including myself, there are some easy bug fixes I wanted to submit). Back then, they were still deciding what the direction was going to be for the library. A year later, it seems they've opted for the closed-source, no improvements path unfortunately.

I still subscribe, since the papers are interesting, but the website needs some love.
Can you recommend a better Linux experience for someone who wants to be able to turn their programmer-brain off when trying to watch Netflix? That's not a challenge -- if there's a better distro for civilian use than Ubuntu, I'd love to give it a shot.
Mathematical notation is almost always 1 based. Let $v = 1 \dots n$, that sort of thing. So I find translating mathematics into code (which I seem to do quite frequently) much easier with 1 based indexing. (One exception being if you have a lot of modulo arithmetic.)

I've used both 0 based (python, C++), and 1 based (R, matlab, mathematica), but I really belive 1 based is the right choice for Julia. It isn't necessary, but it feels better.
As I've gotten older my resumes have gotten shorter. The shortest resume is just your last name "Zuckerberg" or "Snowden". If you've achieved something impressive (sold a company, started a well known web framework, fixed some large horrible government or organizational process) it speaks for itself and the rest of it is just making sure you aren't a conartist, which an interview can easily handle.
The Russian government doesn't defend Communism and the USSR in any shape or form.

Well, it's not like anyone's trying to get the USSR officially reconstituted. But there does seem to be a very deep undercurrent of respect about what the USSR stood for (as a form a "Greater Russia", in effect), independent of the CPSU's hegemony over it.

As exemplified by, for example, Putin's famous statement about its collapse being "the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century". And the widespread contempt for Gorbachev for having presided over it (or at least for having caved into under far too generous terms for Russia's geopolitical adversaries).
I bought a Samsung 4k TV ~1 year ago, and turning off the Smart TV features (smart hub, or whatever they called it) most definitely turned off the ads.

I'm not actually getting 4k video out of my TV, (since neither the apple tv or playstation support it), but I'm not terribly concerned about that (as I can't tell the difference at the distance I sit from my television).

I wanted a dumb TV anyway, but costco didn't have any at the size I was looking for when I purchased it.
I think the point is that one reason why we've ended up in the situation you describe is because car use has been subsidized. In the early 20th century every major city in the U.S. had a large streetcar network (with 'streetcar suburbs') and access to intercity rail for longer distance commutes / trips.

e.g. Indianapolis served 200 trains a day at its central station in 1900: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indianapolis_Union_Station

It now serves 7 Amtrak trains a week.

OP claimed most "most men _______." She made other claims as well, which I didn't respond to. She claimed "most men ________" when she implied most men experience code summer camps, parental encouragement to take AP CS classes, etc. She said "women don't usually get sent to coding summer camp as teenagers. Our parents don't usually encourage us to take AP computer science, and our best friends aren't in CS and don't refer us for sweet internships at Microsoft and Google."

Usually means "under normal conditions; generally." Generally means more often than not, meaning over half / most.
