Less speed = less heat which is surprisingly a large concern in space. The other factor is that the transistors on the chips are larger than the ones used on Earth. I don't remember the specifics but the reasoning was that less transistors would be damaged if a spot on the chip was hit by radiation and built in redundancies would be able to compensate.

It'd be cool if it divided the day into 30 minute blocks and you could just allocate the tasks to the blocks. Like a type of paint interface, where you just color the blocks.
No, mostly because the screen and the hardware were actually pretty bad.

I have been a "general purpose" developer (I hate saying "full stack", because there are no stacks and I don't always work exclusively cross-disciplinary). Mostly web-focused, but I've done stints where I was 100% SQL or 100% desktop. There was even a brief period where I was exclusively doing embedded C. I've done JavaScript since it was invented. I've done C# since it was invented.

In that time, I've never been quite as excited about anything as I am about Virtual Reality, and specifically what Google and Mozilla are doing with WebVR. I don't think people understand how much 2D systems are holding us back. We've had the same WIMP interfaces since Xerox invented them in 1980. And we largely do the same things with our computers as we did in the 90s when the GUI finally captured majority market share. Making computers smaller and faster is not going to change that. Only a complete change in the user interface will change that.

I've always banged around working on graphics, stereo-imagery, and simulation as a hobby, but I seriously started on making something about 2 years ago (actually, I recently saw my first commit for some reason, and it was July 10, 2014). When my son was born prematurely earlier this year, it lit a fire under my ass. I know a lot of people think that they need to get the startup stuff out of the way before they start a family, but for me, my family is my purpose, my family is what drives me. I feel strongly that well-designed VR systems are going to enable a whole new level of accessibility, interconnectedness, empathy, and collaboration. I need to make that world for my son.

So because of the stuff I started 2 years ago, I now have a job where I spend 100% of my time working on VR. For the first time in my entire career, I look forward to going to work. I feel great. I have great coworkers. We do amazing things together. And it's because of WebVR.
He pushed for the invasion of Iraq on his blog in 2002 and 2003. When France and Germany tried to prevent the war, he demonized them and contemplated war with them.[1][2]

In July 2003, when the weapons of mass distruction had failed to materialize and it was hard to find defenders of the war, he was even published in the Wall Street Journal[3], where he dismissed the importance of the WMDs and asserted:

"In fact, the real reason we went into Iraq was precisely to 'nation build': to create a secularized, liberated, cosmopolitan society in a core Arab nation. To create a place where Arabs were free and safe and unafraid and happy and successful and not ruled by corrupt monarchs or brutal dictators. This would demonstrate to the other people in the Arab and Muslim worlds that they can succeed, but only if they abandon those political, cultural and religious chains that are holding them back."

His readers objected, saying "Any time the American public is called upon to expend their national treasure and send their troops into battle they deserve a completely honest accounting of the reasons why." Den Beste replied "No, I'm afraid they don't. They don't need to know, and can't be trusted to know."[4]

In short, he helped and defended the government lying to its own people in support of an illegal war of aggression.

Niche: the situation in which a business's products or services can succeed by being sold to a particular kind or group of people

or a specialized market

Size is not necessarily a function of the word niche it only implies that the good or service being sold targets a group that is not a majority of all of the market participants. In twitters case 3.4B users on the internet, with only some subgroup that participates on social media and then only a subgroup of that group that wishes to participate with limited post length and then, business wise, just the business niche that have a large customer base within that subgroup of internet/social media/short form.

As an example BMW is a niche business, luxury auto, that had 92B in revenue last year.

Implementing SSL/TLS for All Squarespace Sites
So let's hope developers don't need to jump through hoops with internal certificates.
There have been some high profile instances over the past few years of consultants (IBM, Accenture, etc.) delivering awful, broken solutions after being paid big dollars by governments.

Can anyone who has worked at one of these consultancies (or on the procurement side in government) shed light on why this keeps happening?
To be fair, they do have different products in their lineup and I don't remember exactly which one I tried before. It was a long time ago, but I definitely remembering thinking that the flavor was horrible. But it was definitely hot. :-)

My biggest complaint on most of those sorts of sites are:

* Tight line spacing
* Full window width lines
* Small fonts
* Sometimes, font choice

When I'm reading something lengthy on a site like those named, I'll usually set a max-width on the body, give it auto margins, and play with line-height, font-size, and usually set it to Arial. Takes me 30 seconds on pages that aren't terrible and makes it much easier to read.
Sure, but that's raising the bar a hell of a lot higher than where it is currently, where all you need is a HTML email message that happens to superficially resemble something a random person might expect Google to send.

And in the long run I have more faith in making systems more secure via technological means than to try and convince users not to click on links in shady email messages. So by moving the problem into the technology domain and out of the social domain, I'd say it's a big win.
It's not exactly a language but learning puppet has opened up a lot more opportunities for me recently and is what pushed me into contracting.
Currently, SRI is not enough for browsers to implement content-addressable storage as you describe here, because it is subject to cache poisoning. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10311020 - basically, the browser can't know if a script can actually be loaded from the claimed domain without requesting it. This can be used to violate CSP.

Though it would be nice for the browser to cache it for domains that have delivered the script previously. It wouldn't be that different from a normal cache except the timestamp doesn't matter.
NeXTSTEP 3.3 changed my whole way of thinking. It was an amazing development environment with a separate interface builder that allowed me to spend a lot of time just thinking about the best way to do things. Objective-C is still one of my favorite languages. It was also my first BSD experience and lead me to FreeBSD and then OpenBSD. The difference between Objective-C / NeXTSTEP or Cocoa and C++ / WIN32 was amazing.

Forth also made me go "wow". I really understood that way of thinking. I also think Forth is amazing for its ability to keep you from getting discouraged by allowing a problem to be broken down into new words. Postscript was my Forth "wow" combined with art.

Bingo. While I am in favour of individual liberties, smoking is not one of them if I am required to subsidize the healthcare that smokers will inevitably need.

You pay for the outcomes of all those activities as well.
Definitely Clojure, both server and browser (clojurescript), and also using React from Clojurescript (Om). These in combination gave me a big new glimpse into the wide variety of expressivity among languages, and how UI development can be significantly streamlined.

I don't use Clojure as much any more but everything I learned has had a lasting impact and much of it trickles into my other work now, in other languages (mainly C++).

The real test of autonomous will be in how liability is dealt with. A fully autonomous truck will be the responsibility of the company that supplies the software, not the carrier.

Why do you think this is clearly the case? If the licensing is thorough, it probably continues to make sense to finance the liability by charging the entity that controls how the vehicle is used (a truck operating in a rural setting will probably be involved in less incidents than one operating between Boston and NYC).
Is boekweit een gezond alternatief voor granen
That's probably somewhat true. (And it's certainly true of Central Square--though, to that, I pretty much say no loss.) But the advent of chains like Starbucks and Peets is pretty much universal and there's probably still a fair bit less of that in Cambridge than in other places. Sure, various old institutions close their doors over the years--and what replaces them is inevitably not as "funky"--but there are still a lot of locally-owned stores and restaurants in Harvard Square that have been there for ages.
With the hours of service reform passed a few years ago, drivers are required to have so many off-duty hours and so many sleep hours per week and day. Being able to go off-duty or log sleep while the truck is traveling means higher fleet velocity, which means higher fleet utilization, which means higher revenue.

A truck with a single driver has to sit idle (or off in California) a large part of the day. Capital costs don't take a break during those hours.

Or indeed left-lane preference, for British and Japanese users.
But yes a more sophisticated simulation would use > 2 lanes, and have various controls for lane discipline, especially since poor lane discipline is a major contributor to congestion. This is a suggestion not a criticism btw, I had fun with this.
Python, coming from C/C++, Javascript (at least circa 2003) was like leveling up 10x in my programming superpower. I was able to explore concepts and domains so much faster, and those concepts have led to my career. I've talked with friends who only know something like C# or Java, and I feel bad for them - they have no language in which to rapidly play with things. And that rapid ability to play (like with the Python REPL) makes a huge difference in learning.

Millennials — especially the oldest ones — are these days buying cars in big numbers. They just had a late start.

Now the largest generation in the U.S., millennials bought 4 million cars and trucks in the U.S. last year, second only to the baby boomers, according to J.D. Power's Power Information Network, which defines millennials as those between 21 and 38 in 2015. Millennials' share of the new car market jumped to 28 percent. In the country's biggest car market, California, millennials outpaced boomers for the first time.[1]

It was fine if you kept it in a case. That protects from the errant touch events I mentioned in another comment here, as well as making it so I don't have to look at the back cover.

Maybe unrelated, I've had the phone for probably two years (it supposedly came out two years ago as well - didn't think I bought a brand new phone but I guess I did). Recently (past month or so), it's started rebooting at random throughout the day. I'd do a factory reset if I didn't dread the thought of dealing with all of my 2FA stuff.
Any auto parts store will take it. They have a giant metal vat in the back room; you just bring your old oil in, and they tell you to go dump it yourself. I have an Autozone next to the grocery store I normally go to, so it's easy to just swing by and dump it while I'm already out.
Don't remember much except Trade Wars. And some cracked C64 games.
Even though this is for hardware and VR, I have to admit the first thought on seeing the headline was that google doubled down on its advertisement business. More so after the recent news that they changed their policy to track users more.

When I realized language and framework choice have at best a marginal influence on product success and started focussing on identifying the right problems and getting to a solution quickly without letting developers get distracted by superficial decisions.
The lander didn't have sensors on its feet, so my guess is there may have been two conditions to check for "on the ground": either a vertical speed of 0m/s (gyroscope), or an altitude of 0m (radar).

Given that the parachute was deployed at the correct time and its deployment was governed by air speed (to be deployed around 1mach), the gyroscopes were likely working correctly. The radar detection wasn't available until after deployment of the parachute (more specifically, after ejecting the heat shield, which occurred at the same time), so if the machine's decision was based on faulty input, the doppler radar is likely to blame.

It is also possible that the sensors were working correctly, but the inputs were processed incorrectly. I'd expect that an issue like that could have been caught while testing the lander on earth...

edit: it's also unlikely the engines would have kept firing after computer malfunction: there were multiple (9 iirc) thrusters all around the craft and they were fired independently using pulse-width modulation. This approach was intended to both slow down the descent and to stabilize its course/orientation.
> a lot of its idiomatic abstractions are object oriented in nature

This is a curious comment, and I'd like to hear some elaboration.

I used C++ for years, then 2 years as a full-time Clojure dev, and I don't see any OO parallels in Clojure at all.
Run CUBA on AWS ECS – Part 2
I feel the same way. My watch is a solar powered waterproof (200m) chunk of titanium and sapphire with a radio inside that sets itself every night. It is practically indestructible. It will run the rest of my life. I will never have to set it. I will never have to remove from my wrist (barring an MRI or some other fringe context).

It's also beautiful. It's the only thing I wear, other than my wedding ring, that could be considered jewelry. I'm going to give it to my son some day. And at that moment, perhaps 40-60 years from now, it will still be a functional work of art.

I look at smart watches vs. dumb watches and just think it's a bunch of total nonsense. Eventually, yes, they will likely get their, but it's going to 50-something years from now when it's cheaper to put a super computer in something than it is to leave it out.
If you're only using React with ES6/ES2015, you could also try Preact. I've found it to be a pretty decent drop-in replacement for React. There's also a preact-compat package that supports some additional React features.

Honestly man, I can handle math without issues. Differential equations are no big deal. But if you ask me to design a workflow, I'm going to give you the blankest stare ever because I don't even have a clue where to start. I can probably kludge something together based on how I could see someone else using the product, but in all likelihood, I'm just training myself to do it the way that's most natural for whatever I'm building.

Empathy is one piece of design. But if you can't visualize different modes of operation, you can't choose the most empathetic one. I suspect the real issue is that people with both deep technology and ux skills are rare. They require you to keep two entirely different problem spaces in your head and explore them together.
Have you read pg's essay "Cities and Ambition"? He explains there why there isn't a Silicon Valley outside of Silicon Valley. Different cities have different cultures, and encourage different things. The cities of Europe are ancient. Their ambitions were set long ago.

That said, there's much more to "entrepreneurship" than tech startups! Opening your own restaurant - not a chain franchise - is entrepreneurship, too. Or a barbershop, or making custom clothing, or running a small theater, or any number of other things. Small business is mostly small, not a stepping stone on the way to being huge.

In those terms, is the US actually doing better than Europe? Do entrepreneurs - not the millionaires, just the people who don't have to answer to anyone but themselves - do better here, or in Europe?
Why not? Right now, compromised account keys give you the ability to issue certificates that are valid about as long as certificates are valid (or, in the worst case, +90 days from the original expiration date). Just about any scenario where the account key is compromised is one where the certificate's private key is compromised as well (not to mention typically one where you can just solve another challenge), so you're not really in a much worse position. Even less of a concern once authorizations are valid for only ~7 days.
When I wrote EyeMap, it turned out humans blinked a lot more than I had anticipated. It wasn't much later until EyeMap had been shuttered before I read that same book. What I did was basically ignore the 5 or so frames where the eye was blinking because EyeMap's main purpose wasn't to be a UI - the button pressing bits are only for calibration purposes.

But it is dangerous to ignore the ripple effects that it might cause in society, so we might as well start thinking about the potential solutions.
