One thing, please, for anyone on this board, or anyone who intends to advise anyone about whether or not they should take medications:

Unless you are a doctor, you have no advice to give. Unless you are a doctor and have examined a patient, you have no advice to give except to that patient.

I don't care what good or bad experience you personally had with medication; people respond differently, and it does not qualify you to give advice to anyone about any drug they are considering taking.

Saw a great Kotlin talk by Hadi Hariri from JetBrains at Javazone this year. [1] What I liked about it was that instead of the usual "this is how you do X in language Y" it focused on the immediate value it could bring to professional developers used to Java. Made me really want to try it out and start using it at my job.

§5.2.4.2.1

CHAR_BIT is at least 8

USHRT_MAX is at least 2^16 - 1

UINT_MAX is at least 2^16 - 1

ULONG_MAX is at least 2^32 - 1

ULLONG_MAX is at least 2^64 - 1

§6.2.5p8 guarantees that integers of increasing conversion ranks obeys subset relations, and §6.3.1.1 lays out that short, int, and long have conversion ranks in that order.

Thus, sizeof(char) = 1 ≤ sizeof(short) ≤ sizeof(int) ≤ sizeof(long) ≤ sizeof(long long).

I think this is the funniest thing in this all. You might cross all your t's and dot your i's, and you still may trip in a pitfall when your compiler/platform vendor happens to actually diverge from the standard. Such is life with decades old language with at least as many implementations.

It is easy to ROM is but the appeal here the look, retro style and the controller. On top of that the ease for most people not wanting to setup anything.

> they seek to coerce the whole world to do the same.

That's pretty much the definition of politics. I don't see any future in trying to stop people from doing that.
I get it. It's a compromise, since I owned all those original systems back in the day.

This is the same problem faced by other media during the transition to digital... The NES Classic isn't upgradable, can't add games, won't do SNES, nevermind N64. Similar efforts to play these old classics on 3DS would have cost $100 for the console and then $30+ per game for games I've already purchased, which are 30 years old.

There may be a time in the future when there is an all-in solution to this problem, and at that point I might support the purchase of a 1st-Party solution, like I have with the rest of my media and hardware over time. I still avoid almost every digital-only, non-transferable purchase for the same reason, however.
I make it a point never to use a for loop in JS. It's sometimes tricky but often leads to cleaner code.

There was once a programmer who wrote software for personal computers. "Look at how well off I am here," he said to a mainframe programmer who came to visit. "I have my own operating system and file storage device. I do not have to share my resources with anyone. The software is self-consistent and easy-to-use. Why do you not quit your present job and join me here?"

The mainframe programmer then began to describe his system to his friend, saying, "The mainframe sits like an ancient Sage meditating in the midst of the Data Center. Its disk drives lie end-to- end like a great ocean of machinery. The software is as multifaceted as a diamond, and as convoluted as a primeval jungle. The programs, each unique, move through the system like a swift-flowing river. That is why I am happy where I am."

The personal computer programmer, upon hearing this, fell silent. But the two programmers remained friends until the end of their days.

Does anyone run tmux with a tiling window manager for local development?

If so, what are the advantages? I know automating sessions is one of them, as explained in the article.

I am more interested in hearing about interactions with the terminal. You already get good mouse-less window management with something like i3 or xmonad.

How about copy & paste? I use urxvt plugin for this, but I often find myself using the mouse to select and middle-click. Is tmux better?

Good point. Although there are some other areas of trading where speed matters that aren't HFT. An example is the algorithms used to split up large orders into smaller trades in order to hide the position and have a minimum impact on the market price. These are often optimized for very low latency as well. Especially the more sophisticated versions that do things like halt execution in the event that there is news on the stock, etc.
Would question 4 have a different answer if it was:

Heard a "funny" story about Facebook switching over to pure IPv6 and their issues dealing with largely untested IPv6 implementations. For example, switches which, when presented with an IPv6 BGP route while they don't have IPv6 configured, crash. Apparently they took down an entire data centre full of rack switches finding that out.

My second-favorite problem, after that was solved, was developers constantly using IPv4-only code. Their eventual solution was to just disable IPv4 entirely so that anyone committing IPv4-only code was committing broken code.

It's amazing how much work it takes to bring people into the future.

Butler Lampson makes the point (in a recent set of slides) that relations are a good base for DSLs: they have enough complexity to model graphs, functions, sets etc.

It does not contradict Einstein's theory of gravity, just as Einstein did not contradict Newton. All three are different models explaining progressively more thorough levels of observation.

Don't think of a theory so much as "what is true" but rather as a set of propositions and equations which are designed to model the way physical processes are observed to occur.

Theories exist within their own provenance of observation. Both Einstein and Newton's theories reflect reality within certain limits, but outside those limits they do not. To allow Einstein's theory to apply at larger scales, we proposed dark matter because Einstein could not account for the behavior of galaxies unless there was some hidden element involved. Thus we proposed dark matter. It is a reasonable accommodation, but one that has defied confirmation.

The emergent theory embraces both Newton and Einstein, eliminates any need for dark matter, and attempts to explain all current observations within a single framework.

Einstein's theory made testable predictions which were later proven to be true. The emergent theory lacks such confirmation, and so time will tell whether it reflects reality.
Functionally it seems equivalent, except that it doesn't work on big endian machines (assuming the ints are in native endian).

On dumb compilers it may be faster if a few bitops happen to be faster than a call to memcpy. Which sounds plausible.

On modern compilers it boils down to whether your compiler can optimize either one or both of these patterns into a single unaligned load. GCC for example certainly optimizes 4 byte memcpy, probably already at -O2, but whether it recognizes your pattern I don't know. Compile it and check.
I never said it wasn't complex or could be meaningfully represented, but you were implying that they have more "data" than they are showing.

If you are worried because they are making "hidden associations" from this data, my question would be how to display that? How would they possibly show you all of the assumptions, associations, interpretations, and calculations they did, do, or will gather from your data?

If you are going to fault them for not displaying that data, shouldn't it be possible to display it in the first place?

Yeah I have a handful for my favourite SNES games from the Wii Virtual Console. But my Wii has long been retired to a storage cupboard. Plus I would like a proper SNES controller for that authentic feel :) I keep thinking about doing a RetroPi and get a USB SNES controller but it isn't a priority for me really.

Your comment is littered with advice that applies to machine learning research, not engineering. It is as applicable to machine learning as "learn deep data structures and algorithms" is to CRUD web app development for an internal "enterprise" application that will see simultaneous usage in the high dozens of users at best.

I understand and empathize if you or your associates have been run out of town as a result of a non-compete. We are probably on the same side in a discussion about non-competes. Thank you for the references, the TC piece in particular. I wasn't aware of that part of CA law.

The Midwest in general, and Ohio in particular, has some great institutions that attract great talent from around the world, i.e. The Cleveland Clinic. The region/Ohio also educates some of the top talent.

While I'm not convinced they will be a viable competitor to Silicon Valley, it is possible. The region's ability to retain talent is the most critical component. Non-competes can make that more difficult. I don't think non-competes alone preclude the region from competing with SV.

I'm from Ohio, I live in California, and I would put a higher priority on weather than non-competes.
I found papers: they are calibration results of LIGO detectors. I read them years ago, so I forget anything except that they found systematic temporal variations across day and year, and they are using long 2km arms. Their latest paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1608.05134v1.pdf . Systematic error is still there.

Speed of light will remain constant, no doubt, so observer need to be far away to feel difference, otherwise it will be affected by wave, with his instruments and clock. It's why 2-4km arms are able to pickup temporal signal, while smaller setups are able to pickup thermal noise only.

"still awaiting the ICP license to be issued, so I can actually open port 80 on a VM."

It is my understanding that things are much, much easier if you are not "publishing". That is, if you don't have a website or open port 80 (for instance) you can quickly and easily co-locate devices inside China - without any kind of license.

Although we have not yet deployed rsync.net in mainland china (we have a location in Hong Kong) all of our contacts and partners were happy to rent us rackspace for non-publishing infrastructure - no licenses needed.

Requires a college degree, periodically requires a technical degree (that condition changes based on USAF/Navy needs).

> maybe a submariner

Be aware, this is a very isolating career field, and also broad, as there are many jobs on a submarine (or any naval vessel).

That all said, if you've got the emotional aptitude (by this I mean stability, especially if you go enlisted), it's a good way to get started or restarted. 4-5 year commitment, end up with training and a signing bonus socked away and access to funds for college. Employers also seem to have a strong preference for former military. If you find the military satisfactory you can stay in career, or go reserves (worst case is being called up for another war like Iraq/Afghanistan, normal case is a few weeks of wearing a uniform a year and collecting an extra retirement check at 60).
To extend on your point: they have been presenting ridiculous concept cars for decades, if there is anything to read into the observation that the current crop of ridiculous concept cars tends to be electric it is that they are serious about phasing out their dependence on the business of building internal combustion engines.

Which will still hit them hard, because the value of wrapping a giant battery in a car is about as low as wrapping a combustion engine in a car. The difference is that they made the engines in-house, whereas the batteries will most likely be third party commodity parts. They tried setting up their own battery production lines, but utterly failed at making them at competitive prices.
