Paid or unpaid?

I don't think unpaid internships or traineeships are legal here. But a paid traineeship is essentially a job contract for a limited duration project -- to wit, "the malineen project".
Yes, but you then also went on to say that no language will ever do it. Rust _has_ consistently beaten C on many of these benchmarks in the past, and continues to remain very close in the ones that it's not.

I actually don't think microbenchmarks are a good way to think about performance anyway. There's two reasons:

First, Rust's safety guarantees let you get away with more dangerous things. Consider scoped threads, or non-atomic reference counting.[1] You _could_ write this in C, and you'd do so for a microbenchmark, but not for a real codebase, as it's far too dangerous. Or, you might do it, but end up with bugs that you don't detect, that aren't there in the Rust version.

1: http://blog.faraday.io/saved-by-the-compiler-parallelizing-a...

Secondly, microbenchmarks are often "can the best person at language X write something faster than the best person at language Y"? I don't think that's nearly as interesting as "When an average programmer of languages X and Y write a program, which is faster?" Rust's default patterns and style is already extremely fast. It's not a guarantee, mind you, but for real-world usage, it's the average case that matters more.
> No sane European would ever 'pair' wine with cheese for extra taste. We use it for eliminating taste of previous wine during wine tastings.

No, you're wrong, (red) wine and cheese are paired all the time, and eliminating taste is done with bread if at all.

I'm a sane Frenchman, by the way, and an important street of my city is named after President Hoover. Not sure if this has anything to do with the wine and cheese however.

I'm so glad people bring up new offsprings all the time. Thanks to them, despite our supposedly declining demography as a sad ageing country, we destroy one extra percent of my country's land every 8 years, just for housing (and that's a much bigger percentage of the truly usable land). Since my mother's youth, the available surface by inhabitant has decreased from 3.5 to 2 acres, and the usable ratio of this 'available' surface has dropped too. Infrastructure can't follow, it is a rat race with public spending that can never catch up with the population increase and concentration, that create exponential problems.

I am so glad our African neighbours still fuck like rabbits, in order to produce an extra +20 million people every year, on a land (and a society political organisation) that cannot support half of them, destabilising all countries there by internal migrations; and another million or so having to move to Europe every year, destabilising the social systems there which are not designed to accommodate such influx.

I'm so glad that people keep pretending the demographic problem is a supposed decrease in population when it is actually always increasing, and the continuous increase is the problem. I'm so glad they use 2-century old rhetoric on demographics and do not notice that there has been a small change in productivity per human being since those days.
Well I did respond to what you said, and that is apparent. Thanks for continuing to insult my intelligence though, good on ya mate.

This is very awesome and just one more step in moving towards a completely automated world. Everyone's commutes everyday is just a gold-mine of mostly unused data-points. There are solutions out there right now like Waze / Google Maps that'll redirect users around accidents. Can you imagine how crazy it'll be when our roads become even smarter based on individual users. For example, if there are people who "logged-in" to a road that enjoy driving faster, then this self-aware driving car can go in the lanes that avoid certain dangerous users.

Wait, there was a UML tool in VS? I didn't even notice... although I did need to make a UML diagram once or twice.

I've always found UML a bit counterintuitive. The inheritance arrows seem to go the wrong direction. It also focuses too much on inheritance and not enough on convention, which object is responsible for what, and data flow. I won't miss it, but a well-designed sketching tool to explain code would be nice.
There's no reason why a microphone and an accelerometer would be hard to connect as input features. The car can make use of the same hints, and most probably make better use than even humans by learning to distinguish more informative patterns.

Dutch also has "eenzaam" (lonely) en "alleen" (single, singular), but neither really confer the same meaning as "solitude". The closest expression in Dutch is probably "op zichzelf", but that still describes a fact, while solitude (feels to me like it) expresses an emotion.
Former DoD contractor here. Contracting is a description of legal contracts and payment flows, independent of security arrangements. I sat in the same SCIF as my directly employed colleagues, and the same security officer was in charge of our site and everything I did at the site. My employer's security officer had to handle getting my clearance and forwarding the paperwork to my site's security officer.

It's not like DoD contractors are doing classified work from home in their sleepwear. They're still subject to the same security procedures, and in fact the same security people are overseeing the contractors and direct employees.

I would still roll in before sunrise during what looked to be a beautiful day and work in a windowless chainsaw-resistant room with a steel door. I'd daydream of a nice sunny lunch break just like my direct employee colleagues, and be just as disappointed that it was raining when I exited isolation.
A $349 gadget with a refresh cycle of about two years is outselling a $15,000 gadget with a refresh cycle of 50 years? How could that be.

More amazing is that Rolex outsells Apple, actually. Their watches are not inexpensive.

How Online Booking and Reservation System Is Changing Our Life for the Better
LibreSSL is OpenSSL with some of the ugly bits stripped out. It's still aiming for compatibility, and so it retains many of the warts and will continue to do so. It's not a modern library though it may be a bit better than OpenSSL.

BoringSSL is similar, except there you additionally have the problem that google strongly discourages its use by third parties, as they consider it an internal library and semantics can change.

A better example of a modern library would be NaCL or libsodium.

I look at this way: early education focuses on learning to read and write and do arithmetic. The basic purpose is to give you tools whereby they can continue to educate yourself throughout your life. So basically, our early education aims to put our future education into our own hands.

Let me qualify the above a little. You might ask, well what are the purpose of high-school teachers or university lecturers? Once we are given these tools shouldn't we just be given the books to progress on our own? Hopefully, teachers are people who can take a complex subject and guide us towards an understanding of that subject. To me teachers are like guides through a jungle of knowledge. We need a guide so that we don't get lost. For me, a teacher is part guide and part "composer of problems". I consider teaching to be guided problem-solving. When I am teaching a course, I pose problems, whether it be in Math or Chemistry, and guide the students as they try to solve those problems.

And as for your comment about "wasted time", I am not sure what to think about this. The difficulty with learning is that we need repetition and reinforcement. Yes, I see a lot of pointless repetition, but we do need some repetition. I am presently struggling with improving my chess skills, as well as trying to learn to program an Arduino. Mastering these skills require a lot of repetition in order to cement that knowledge. Wish me luck.
Sardo is about as close to Latin as Italian, Castilian, and Catalan.

BTW Sardo is actually not one language, but a set of languages spoken in the island.
There are lots of languages you've probably never heard of :). I realized the same when I started to read about the family of Romance languages to learn what the concept was all about. Not being an expert, it does seem to me to be a theme that languages of relatively isolated communities tend to me significantly more conservative in their evolution than in more cosmopolitan communities.

This seems like one of those articles where nobody seems to have read past the first couple of paragraphs. It doesn't matter how wonderful the warning about things missing __init__ are if it's buried in a pile of other noise. The noise is the problem, not the specific warnings.

And the author has already provided a constructive solution to the problem other than "not linting", which is to start with a whitelist and slowly crank the linter up, providing instant value and a path to move forward to obtain incrementally more value over time, instead of trying to crank the linter down, which means a lot of work before you're provided with any value, followed even then by, in the real world, probably staring at the list of issues, getting overwhelmed, and deciding the code seems to be working fine the way it is so why bother?

(Remember, we are not superhumans. None of us respond to a list of 20,000 style issues by dropping everything and fixing them all. This is not even wrong; we can not operate like that, so there's no point in pretending that we either do or should.)

Intro to Implicit Matrix Factorization: Classic ALS with Sketchfab Models
I disagree with the notion of a computing system being “secure” in absolute terms, without reference to what the user wants to do with it. A system is secure if it's unlikely to compromise the integrity and/or privacy of information the user deems sensitive, which of course varies from one user to another.

Without reference to a specific user, all you can talk about is a computing system being restricted or unrestricted, and I don't want my computing devices to have restrictions imposed by someone other than myself.

Intelligence is a tool, not a goal. Where do the goals come from? For humans, there is a drive to survive and procreate baked into our directions with suitable prompts. For AI, what will it want?

The answer is that they will have programmed directions coming from humans. Hence my comment.

They were lucky. Those regexps were OK only using a single register representation, u8x16. That’s not always the case.

To write efficient SSE code, you need to understand __m128i is a just a hardware register, and use whatever representation you need for particular instruction.

Example: http://stackoverflow.com/a/17355341/126995
The SSE2 code is impossible to translate to Rust, because _mm_sub_epi8 views the registers as std::simd::i8x16, while the subsequent _mm_srli_epi64 views the same registers as std::simd::i64x2
