I went through Fullstack's Flex program last year and it's definitely paid for itself. I tried to teach myself for several years and bounced around from language to language without getting too far. The entire time I never knew even how to really structure an application even though I could write a recursive function and understand it. For example, no online tutorial really goes through the rationale behind your folder structure or how to organize your code when you're a beginner. I kinda got fed up with my progress and decided to make the jump. Also, I saw that Javascript was starting to entangle itself in everything so I figured that if I were to go anywhere, it would be a bootcamp that only taught Javascript. The best thing about it was the incremental progression with explanations behind why certain things worked a certain way (historical and pragmatic). For some reason, I absolutely NEEDED that. I needed to understand why things worked they way they do, and most books and other tutorials just never really bothered explaining things that in depth. Having to create your own jQuery, your own ORM, etc makes you appreciate what those tools really do. The second best thing was the feedback loop. Things that used to take me a week to research then understand now only took 30 minutes. It also helped me narrow my focus and ignore those 'hey you should totally use this framework/language instead' posts that would throw me off track for about a month and make me question whether I was learning the 'right' stuff.

> so when it comes out from behind Mars we'll know whether it made it into orbit or not.

The orbiter successfully inserted into orbit, but the lander has not responded and things look grim. In particular, when they replayed lander's signal as heard by the MarsExpress satellite, it cut out as exactly the same time as was heard directly from Earth. That makes it more likely the lander stopped transmitting in the middle of its descent, rather than having its signal blocked on the way to Earth.

You can use any nRF51822 board, and there are a lot available. I'd probably get the official dev kit as it is pretty cheap and can be used to program bare nRF5x chips (it has a segger programmer on board).

I don't really care if someone disapproves of the way I'm raising my children, but it's a real hassle if they call CPS. Throughout history there have been people on both ends of the spectrum who are more than willing to tell you that you're doing it wrong, but it seems like lately they've been feeling more empowered to call in the state to enforce their beliefs.

It doesn't help that people read about a few extreme cases in the newspaper or online and suddenly think children are made out of fine china. Go to Youtube on any "funny pratfalls" video and you'll see comments about how thousands of children die every year because they trip and fall over while running and omg how can that parent be so bad they need to have their children taken away immediately, blah blah blah...

Parents know that is a load of hogwash, but other people read that and maybe even believe it and suddenly playground swings are like public enemy number one.

Probably more than you think, for some reason people think it's a new thing, it isn't.

Go back to the mid to late 90's to early 2000's and there were tons of them usually branded under one of the large IT/Tech companies like Sun or MSFT.

Java programming schools were very popular same goes for .NET/ASP the only difference now is that bootcamps are slightly less vendor oriented but they are still usually not stack agnostic.

12 Years ago you would go and pay for a "bootcamp" to get a Microsoft certification for .NET or some Java developer cert, now you just call it a full stack bootcamp.

MSFT went also even beyond that, in the early to mid 2000's they run programs in many countries that would focus on high school students for free/huge discount you would get to do MCSE/MCPD as extra credit classes after school.

All basically a consequence of private healthcare. Injured party will seek treatment in a hospital; hospital will seek to recover costs of treatment from their health insurance; their health insurer will seek to find someone else who could be held liable for the costs... which points back to the homeowner who will then pass it on to their home insurer. They then sue the trampoline manufacturer, the manufacturer countersue the injured party, the upshot is everyone has to pay higher insurance costs in order to cover all the legal fees. It's so much better than a single payer healthcare system.

At least from the operator's perspective it's more efficient if you are in LTE, as you occupy fewer time slots in the spectrum. To the extent that I've seen some operators in Europe offer cheaper data on faster technologies.
> Generally public healthcare would pick up the tab on most medical costs (sans some mostly insignificant fees).

This gets to the heart of the problem. In the US this is not an option, so even people who generally are not litigious can need to sue in order to make sure medical bills are payed appropriately.

Even with that, personal injury settlements that clock into the millions of euros would be extreme outliers in the USA. It would involve severe death and dismemberment as well as punitive action by the civil court process.
> There are long lists of dead languages still in legacy systems, C and C++ aren't there yet, but I think they are headed that way.

I tend to agree with you (and I'm a big fan of Rust), but I'm nearly certain I heard people saying exactly that ~20 years ago. I don't remember which was the language that was expected to replace C/C++, perhaps Java or Obj-C or perhaps some variant of ML. So far, it hasn't quite happened.

While C/C++ seem to have become much more niche languages in these ~20 years, I suspect that they won't become legacy language any time soon.

Now, I may be wrong. Maybe some revolutionary Rust-base game engine (VR engine? IoT platform?) will shift the landscape drastically any day now, but that's hard to predict.
I doubt there are many designers working on OSS who don't also use it.

I' even doubt the premise that there are terrible open source UIs created by designers. The vast majority of OSS GUI apps were probably styled by programmers, and I think they proved quite well over last 20 years that they chose well when not becoming designers.

The problem with design is also that it doesn't work very well in the "bazaar" style of development. Consistency is possibly the single most important feature of good design, and it gets hard to achieve without central authorities.

I agree with your one comment. Only true revolt will cause a change. People don't really care in the end. As long as they have an iPhone and Netflix and a 50" Samsung, who really cares? Everyone complains a little but there is no
real movement. As bad as things are (and could get), the fact is that they are objectively pretty freaking great.

From the article:
...researchers asked the participants to rank their own Political Orientation on a scale of 1 to 7, where 1 is extremely conservative and 7 is extremely liberal. That means that if the average participant had come out to 4.0, it would indicate a perfect balance on liberal vs conservative sentiment. This group came out to 4.7, which is close to balanced, showing a slight liberal bent, much like the general population.
Ah, semihosting; a bit unloved but very useful in some circumstances. Emulators like QEMU also support this interface, which makes it handy for random debug if you're using them as your test/development environment. The Linux kernel has a configuration option to use semihosting for its console output too.

PS: the article is not quite correct about when to use which trap instruction. Cortex-M profile CPUs should use BKPT; all other 32-bit code should use SVC (with an immediate value varying depending on whether the instruction is Thumb or ARM). 64-bit code uses a HLT insn. If you care at that level of detail you'll be looking at the documentation for the ABI anyway though...
You created an HN account just to reply to li'l ol' me? I'm flattered. Not impressed with your counter-argument, but flattered nonetheless.
The interesting thing to me, about this article, are the subtle undercurrents which are never really stated, but rather seem to be assumed. And they're part of a narrative that seems to be gaining steam, but which doesn't seem to be objectively true in any general sense.

1. Suburbs are bad.

2. Everyone should live and work downtown in/near an urban core.

3. Cars are evil; no one should drive to work.

4. Offices need to be in converted warehouses, with exposed ducting and beams and what-not, and have "character".

I personally think all of those things can be true, some of the time, but I don't think any of them are true all of the time. And I think they're all getting undue weight vis-a-vis the prevailing zeitgeist.
This is a straw man argument unless we're discussing Thiel being fired from a job.

This issue has nothing to do with job protection or diversity. It is being intentionally reframed as such because of the convenience of that narrative.

It is also not about views or voting. Thiel is paying good money to someone who intentionally incites hatred, violence, racism, sexism, xenophobia and ignorance.
To be able to help, it would be great to get to know a bit more about your aims and the current process:

- What do you hope to achieve by the design-reviews? What would be, e.g., a huge issue which is missed?

- In which form are the designs delivered? (Photoshop files, Specs, Interactive Prototypes…)

From what you describe, it seems to me that people might be unsure about what they should do and how they know that they did a "good" review.
Machine learning wouldn't help there, because it will learn from the existing categorizations. Garbage in, garbage out.
If your comment includes the words "Contrary to most belief, most men are not terribly impressed with", you should rethink it.

Yours is a deeply weird and poorly reasoned comment. I don't know if you meant to, but the sentiment you have managed to convey is that "men prefer women who lack agency".

> Furthermore salts larger then the final output side offer no additional security. If you have 256bits of output, you only need 256nits of input. Larger inputs technically risk reducing the entropy of the final output.

If I understand that correctly, then for a 256bit hash with an internal state of 1024 bit, initialized to a fixed and public nothing-up-my-sleeve set of values, increasing the salt from 256 bit to 1024 bit - going from 1 random bit for every 4 known bits to 1 for 1 - reduces entropy.

If from there we assume that the hash uses a Merkle-Darmgard block construction for which it is proven that the only loss of entropy comes from the compression function, this would - for me - mean that the chosen compression function loses more entropy on random bits than on the initialization vector, which makes it special, although it is supposedly chosen to be not special in any way.

This confuses me, but I'm just a sysadmin not a cryptographer, so that is ok. Do you have any links for me to follow up on this?

Ehh, I disagree. Hysteria and FUD can take on lives of their own, living inside the minds of people who let them in even a little. Just because a number of people are upset by something (or believe they should be upset by something) doesn't actually mean it's worth being upset about. The news/media takes these small concerns and blows them out of proportion to sell ad space, which compounds the hysteria.

Example: terrorism. It's a nice trigger word in the USA, but how many people are killed by terrorism vs car crashes or unhealthy habits? Yes, terrorism should be reported on, but it's certainly not as important to anyone's everyday life as not eating shit food and texting like an asshole while driving.

Kids just don't get kidnapped or molested by strangers enough to be statistically significant. Kids are almost always molested by relatives, in a private setting. Kidnapping by stranger is even more rare. Sure, it can happen. Just like a comet could hit Earth. Should we sit around worrying about it, while our children re doomed to have us constantly looking over their shoulders until they're 18 and have no sense of self-purpose?

I held off taking physics in college until my senior year because I dreaded the 3 hour labs. By the time I got there I had 3 levels of calculus (and linear algebra, and plenty of proof based CS classes) under my belt, and it turned out to be one of the easiest classes I've taken.

Like you said, I didn't have to bother memorizing anything, because everything could pretty much be done with simple integration or differentiation.
Out of curiosity, have you hit examples in which the runtime cost of Rust's safety was problematic – and couldn't be worked around without losing either safety or clarity?

Verizon's claims are pure BS. When I did some work for a company called CrunchButton, I figured out (using my fiance's phone) that Verizon had towers that weren't connected to anything. They were just there to provide you with 'full signal' (your phone never connected to these towers) so they could claim coverage in that area. You couldn't make a phone call from that area on the Verizon network. Meanwhile, my T-Mobile phone showed three bars and worked flawlessly.

Don't trust Verizon. They're a sham company.

> The new MacBook Pro is said to include a redesigned, thinner body with a flatter MacBook-style keyboard, an OLED touch panel that replaces the physical function keys at the top of the keyboard, and Touch ID support.

> It is expected to do away with the USB-A port, HDMI port, and SD card slot, featuring just four USB-C ports based on part leaks, and it is said to include support for USB 3.1 and Thunderbolt 3.

The four USB-C port configuration will be interesting.
As far as I can tell the rumor stems from leaked housing shots (maybe prototypes) [1]
which show four slots, two on each side.

The Wikipedia page about Thunderbolt[2] says:

> Intel offers three versions of the controller:

> - one "DP" version that uses a PCIe 3.0 ×4 link to provide two Thunderbolt 3 ports (DSL6540)

>- one "SP" version that uses a PCIe 3.0 ×4 link to provide one Thunderbolt 3 port (DSL6340)

>- an "LP" (Low Power) version that uses a PCIe 3.0 ×2 link to provide one Thunderbolt 3 port (JHL6240).

This means either not all USB-C ports will be Thunderbolt 3 ports or the machines will have to have
two DSL6540's on board. I don't know the cost of this chips but I think this could be expensive.

This is a comment directly from the author to his technical audience. Worded awkwardly and combining two thoughts, he is saying, just because your app works well in SF, does not mean it works well everywhere.
I work in the automotive industry and the 2G shutdown announcement caused a bit of an uproar for car dealerships that install GPS/starter interrupt devices in the vehicles they sell (for purposes of repossession). Most dealerships buy these devices in bulk, and as I recall from a conference I went to a year or two ago only one of the major providers was offering a partial discount on the price of more modern 3G units for those with soon to be obsolete 2G stockpiles.
Absolutely there's an ISIS of plumbling and a dark art of wiring but it comes from the opposite side to that which we expect.

I've mostly plumbed, entirely wired and partially built my own house. I can see better ways to do what I did, of course, and much much worse ways to do what I did. The boiler installer I hired was, thankfully, top notch (I am ridiculously careful with gas).

Oh and I also installed the fibre, installed an ethernet and wifi router, protected it all with a firewall and integrated a server and VPN.

And I grow about ⅔ of my food.

I do all of this without being qualified to do any more than make a coffee and people who are actually 'qualified' (or, more realistically, licensed) have mostly congratulated me on my work.

Should I have done none of these thing because Whitehall thinks erroneously that I'm too stupid? Fuck those cunts. My daughter is safe, has good friends, is well fed and well educated despite their bureaucracy, not because of it.

If anyone thinks I should not have done the plumbing or the electrification, despite being unlicensed, explain why growing my own food and configuring my own internet are OK. Or try and convince my that I should sacrifice my router to my government. And if you attempt (and you will fail utterly) to do that, prepare to be told to fuck right off.
Let's not forget the silent ", too." At the end of the statement.

Black lives matter, too. Please stop executing us, jailing us, abusing us, beating us, underpaying us, stereotyping us.

Hope that clarifies the statement for anyone who still feels/wants to feel confused or outraged by the exclusivity.
Just a few things that came up to mind when I first arrived on the website:

As a UI/UX perfectionist, the dark theme gives me a terrible vibe. It's just not well executed. I think you guys would be much better off with a white themed site. Look at inspiration from the new Stripe website!

I do believe that the splash page could be redesigned much better, it's very dull and it doesn't really have a major call to action when I land. You should make the signing up / searching more in your face.

Secondly, the tagline is horrible, not everyone is familiar with Pandora and the concept of the station, etc.

Good place to iterate from though! Good luck!

He didn't school anybody, he apparently doesn't appreciate real technology development, which he should because the DoD is the largest single purchaser of it.

if all I was doing was making a widget or producing an app, and I didn’t have to worry about whether poor people could afford the widget, or I didn’t have to worry about whether the app had some unintended consequences

Yet again we see the results of people outside of tech focusing on these technologies that get headlines.

Quality Tech does deal in affordability, fail safes, and unintended consequences. Tesla specifically took this approach, as does Apple, palantir etc... not to mention myriad companies focusing on verticals across income and accessibility levels.

I think this statement, especially in light of the recent document published by the govt on artificial intelligence, is likely political more than indighting tech for being myopic.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_case#Headings_and_publi... doesn't have much info, but does claim:

"As regards publication titles it is, however, a common typographic practice among both British and U.S. publishers to capitalise significant words (and in the United States, this is often applied to headings, too)"

As to readability: I think you should see title case as a way to make text more noticable without going for the nuclear option "ALL UPPERCASE". If you look at it that way, you will be happy whenever you see title case.
When will people learn that trivializing others' political views damages the side you support? It might make you feel good to mock people you disagree with buy others will conclude you're ignorant or dishonest.
