I almost did. I earned my black belt in karate and was teaching a few classes per week. I had frequent conversations with my sensei about working full time for him or starting a dojo of my own. We had a location picked out and everything.

Martial arts can be incredibly fulfilling. I got to help people improve their physical and mental fitness, gain confidence, overcome anxieties and fears. There were constant opportunities for fun, new friendships, and doing good in the community. Plus it was really cool knowing I could do some of those Bruce Lee / Chuck Norris moves I'd see in the movies.

At the time, I was the sole income for our family (wife & 3 kids). The income possibilities were just not there. We could not have made it work financially. Now, I'm an old out of shape desk jockey.
apple.com isn't but redirects to www.apple.com which is IPv6 enabled (akamai)
Korea, I'd say was the last, and frankly that was pretty murky. Iraq in '91 I disagree with, but I can see the argument for it. '91 Iraq though showed the kind of adversary we faced though... and that was no adversary at all. Afghanistan sure as hell didn't require our failed invasion, and hopefully has shown us that outspending people with surplus AK's, in caves, is a bad idea.

As for outspending, we're doing that, and as a result we're basically killing our economy. How many trillions can we flush down the desert before we start to look like Russia after economic collapse?

I disagree. If Wikileaks is fear-mongering there's a good reason for doing it. And as it says, Wikileaks has done a lot more for journalism than the top news agency have done in a century. I would not trust the mainstream media's propaganda of anit-women, anit-imigrant trump ticket.

It costs $300. The Roomba "multi-room" 960 is $700 (and Neato $500).

It isn't superior to the Roomba 900 series or Neato. It is just "Good Enough" and less than 1/2 the price. Ultimately it doesn't need to be better than the competition when it is cheaper than them, it just needs to basically perform its function.

> Again: no way to enumerate the options at compile or runtime so copy paste it is:

The author didn't find a built-in function to construct a list of option tags from a list of strings, so, instead of building their own... they copy pasted all the strings and manually built the option tags one by one. They could have collapsed that into a one-line `map` call.

Elm is young and has a long way to go: it is definitely missing many of the conveniences that a web framework will give you (such as functions for building forms from data). Personally, I miss typeclasses coming from Haskell. But it is a Haskell/ML-influenced language before it is a web framework, so for a while anybody using it should expect to be building more of their own plumbing.

Maybe I'm being presumptuous, but the author's approach seems like the kind of error fairly junior programmers make all the time: "if there's no function to do it for me, it can't be done, I'll copy-paste". That's a teachable moment. It's too bad if trying Elm when they didn't have the experience to build their own plumbing turned them off from that kind of approach: I liked Elm for a side project, and am hoping to try similar approaches like PureScript in the future. Getting the "if it compiles it probably works" experience on the front end is addictive.

I would absolutely love to buy a reasonably priced EV from VW (be it under the VW, Audi, or Škoda brand). I have a Škoda, and it's going to be my last gas powered car.

So far, I haven't seen anything from VW or BMW that meets the performance, range, and cool factors anything like the Tesla does. I will not buy a hybrid, it seems like the worst of both worlds to me.

I live in Romania and why would I buy an EV? I cannot charge it over night because I live in a 10-stories-high building, not to mention that there are close to no public EV charging places spread throughout the country. On top of that an EV is expensive as hell. I've bought my SH petrol car around 2 years ago for 4,000 euros, and it's been a blast to drive it (I've done a 4,000 km European tour this summer with it). I don't see prices for SH electric vehicles going to under 5000 euros in the next 15 to 20 years. As a matter of fact, no-one is quite sure how reliable SH electric vehicles will be. As things stand out right now my iPhone4 might as well be from the stone-age (cannot install any new apps on it, almost all the existing apps on it have stopped working), and it's only a 4 to 5-year old piece of electronics.
Try different perspective: if in the next decade German automakers don't make an electric car(s) for the masses, while at the same time it becomes very convenient buying one, would the German employee who still works in the car industry (that, BTW has continued relying heavily on ICE cars) consider buying an electric car from Tesla or Nissan/Toyota that is clean, has great millage and costs a fraction to maintain?

It's "ad-hominem", but I agree.
For a student in germany that's a pretty good income. Think I earned less than 10€ at university back then :(

Regarding the question: 100-150€/h is not too unusual in the enterprise world. However it's more like what is paid to consulting/contracting companies than to freelancers. A lot of bigger companies that I know try to avoid freelancers nowadays and want to give contracts to bigger companies instead (e.g. for legal reasons).

My experience is also that high rates are mostly paid for some kind of generic or management consulting (not really technical) or if the contractor has a really great reputation at the company. For generic SW development your 70€ figure seems closer to the truth. For technical stuff the highest rates I have seen were for security related consulting and development.
ooh, ok. you might also check out openshmem (http://openshmem.org/site/) and openucx (http://www.openucx.org). I'd been planning on integrating both in RaftLib just not enough cycles to get it done yet. These combined would make it much easier to maintain a relatively portable yet performant back end. My thesis research was all about locality, memory placement, and throughput for big data systems. Current work is similar but I'm not neck deep in the hardware dev world. There are current research efforts on my part outside of work, most center around the raftlib.io platform. Before I forget, you might also want to check out the graph partitioning frameworks like metis and scotch...both are used in some MPI frameworks for more optimal partitioning. To get topology data you might want to look at the hwloc framework, it's cross platform and provides input for things like NUMA/cache/PCIe topology for optimization. I haven't had a chance to integrate this hook into RaftLib, however it's just a few lines away once I find the time. If you're wondering...I started out writing my own fiber library for RaftLib. Had ports for both IBM Power and Intel, but it gets a bit tiring maintaining/optimizing for every new architecture. Qthreads and the like have been used in HPC circles for quite awhile, so it made sense. There was no way I was beating them for dev time, so might as well join them.

Based on your auto-tuning discussion...RaftLib aims to do something similar, but for big-data stream processing workloads. Here's my 2016 IJHPCA paper: http://hpc.sagepub.com/content/early/2016/10/18/109434201667...

The good news though is that it is obviously being worked on--heavily. The Rust ecosystem is so new that it feels a bit like we're in the Wild West. Someone comes up with a decent way to do something and then after a bit of ecosystem evolution we're back to the drawing board since, "there's a better way."

This is all very good because it means that the Rust ecosystem is evolving rapidly. It also means that developers are productive enough in the language that entire frameworks can be re-written from scratch in a reasonably short amount of time. I think it's a good demonstration of how effective the language is overall at its goal of improving productivity (as far as systems programming languages go).

From Apple's perspective, the whole point of the work they put into macOS is to add value to macs, the selling of which is their bread and butter. (or used to be ... i guess now it's mostly selling iPhones.) If they were to open-source it, it would be quickly modified to run on bog-standard PCs, removing Apple's motivation to put any more effort into it.

In other words: don't hold your breath.

I tried the sample and I didn't like the food or find it much more convenient than just buying things at the grocery store. I haven't tried any competing services.

There's also the insane amount of waste the other guy mentioned but I'll leave that aside.
The problem I found with this was mostly that there are bugs that only show in one browser (only FF, only Chrome, only Edge, etc) so these tools get their own share of bugs.

At the moment I use Ghostinspector (a SaaS) which works okay. Their UI is a bit clunky, but recording stuff via Chrome extension and modifying it later works okay. Also they let me run the tests with Firefox later. So I develop with Chrome and run tests with Firefox.

You're just more honest or insightful than most people. No sarc, seriously. Given that TV is essentially social simulator for atomized individuals, and we're genetically programmed to enjoy endlessly repeated live and in person interpersonal interactions, Grand-ops claim of infinite creativity is inaccurate because there's almost no creativity on TV at all... Grand op does probably like creativity, for social signalling if nothing else, and likes TV, therefore TV must be creative, if a friend of my friend is also my friend type of logic.

TV is about as creative as my wife as I saying good morning to each other for a couple decades now, its very proper and scripted and we're programmed in our genetics or culture to enjoy that kind of familial tribe repetition, but its a stretch to call it "creative". Likewise watching "The Middle" or something, is equally repetitive and predictable and therefore as a pseudo-social activity its enjoyable.

TV isn't precisely addictive, its fake-socializing. Firefly wasn't merely crack, it was one of your friends getting Fed over by some goon hollywood execs. A series getting cancelled isn't like going cold turkey on drugs, its more like an old friend or family member moving away. Kids who pretend to have fake friends really freak out people in modern culture because your fake friends are supposed to be on channel 12 at 8pm on Mondays, its a huge social mistake for your fake friends not to be on the TV or to be on IRC or in a video game. At least its a mistake right now, culture will likely shift soon enough.

This also hits pro sports BTW. The Green Bay Packers are not my crack dealer, they'd my very large fake extended family / tribemates. That's why if I'm on twitter they better be on twitter with me. Even if the weird alpha/beta nature of our relationship means they do all the action and all the talking, and I do all the passive watching and listening, that tribal affiliation runs strong.
The major manufacturers have a huge amount of engineering talent and resources, they have plenty of the `rockstars`, as you call them.

This is about automation of production, and you can be sure that the manufacturers with their highly optimized supply chains and production lines have done a lot to make them very efficient.

Going as automatic as possible is often not the cheapest solution, and not the best decision with regards to public relations, lobbying power, etc. And probably not where we want to go. People need jobs after all...

Of course, big corps are also cautious and slower to move.

The reason why they haven't aggressively tackled EVs is because the market is not there. It's tiny. (for now)

Almost everyone is working on EVs and building up know how, but why would they go into it aggressively? They do just fine with gas guzzlers.

There are also big challenges with scaling up to large numbers, as seen by Tesla's issues with available batteries.

I admire Tesla for pushing innovations and creating a market. But that's almost always the role of newcomers, not the big, entrenched players.

My biggest fear is that Tesla will get chewed up in pushing technology and innovating, to the point of going bankrupt. Then the old manufacturers will swoop in and take over. (and buy up the know how)

They wouldn't have to sell "only EVs". They could have continued selling EVs while selling their soon to be vintage cars.

All three companies have several brands (VW has Porsche, Audi, Skoda etc.) and each of their brands have several models. They are also produced in several factories in different countries.

4-5-6 years ago, when Tesla demonstrated to the world that an EV can have longish range and look attractive, the traditional car companies could have allocated resources and production lines to develop and produce competitive EVs. They would have been in a much better place to compete than tiny Tesla 5 years ago. But now, they are late in the game.

It's more a symptom of failed management than some function of a business law.

Putin hasn't been trying to increase his sphere of influence, unlike the US and the EU. Putin seems more interested in keeping up the status quo, which to me is a more preferable situation.

Think about it - how would the US like it if Russia would station it's armies in Mexico or perhaps do military practice in this country?

Note that the US has army bases all across the world and instability in many countries has been caused by US policy. Policy which seems to be guided mainly by business interests:

There is no reasonable or agreed upon way to do select boxes. You might at this point go “what?! isn’t that pretty basic stuff?” and I’d argue that you’d be right. The more I dug into this problem the more my conclusion solidified: Elm is: not ready for serious use

I've only briefly looked at Elm so far, so I'm not sure how much of an issue this is or isn't in real code. However, I'd like to point out that Javascript (without jquery or other frameworks) also doesn't have any selectbox support besides the built-in HTML ones (which aren't very flexible). I even wrote my own yesterday. Took about 100 lines of JS (no dependencies). I've written similar code in ClojureScript.

I know that the complaint is that the author had difficulties building a select/dropdown. Maybe its harder in Elm than in JS or ClojureScript for some reason, which is a shame if true, but it can't be thaaaat hard, can it?

Of course, Elm is still really young, so its possible it does, indeed, still need a bit more polish to make it truly useful.

OK, I could have been more precise in my wording. I meant that it monitor photos that you take with your phone camera not that it constantly monitors what the camera sees. I didn't intend to mislead and I think that's a reasonable interpretation.

I still think that this is unexpected behaviour. It belongs in the camera app, not the maps app. The expectation is that apps are sand-boxed and separate from each other.

I have anecdotal evidence from friends who don't normally care about issues like this. Yet they felt compelled enough to pro-actively share this with comments similar to "NO GOOGLE!", which suggests it's not just me.

I'm not talking about games overall, just games made by AAA companies. There's certainly still games that cater to a hardcore/competitive audience but you have to look a little harder for them and they're usually coming from indie developers. But for a AAA studio casual is where the money is and it's the philosophy driving their game design even though from their perspective they'd probably call "easier to get into" or more "intuitive" or "streamlined".

Look at the difference between Starcraft Broodwar and Starcraft 2, Diablo 2 and Diablo 3, Dota and every clone like LoL and Heroes of the Storm, Hearthstone, Overwatch. All of the sequels and successors are more shallow and casual than what came before. And the novelties these games introduce are better characterized as gimmicks to hook casual players. Why make a game that caters to a hardcore audience? That's just limiting your playerbase and limiting your potential profit.
