Strong agree. I have worked at several places where "Agile" meant "Create a lot of tickets in Jira and then knock them out fast" or "Create a lot of points in PivotalTracker and then knock them out fast."

I've also been viewed as a trouble maker if I email the development team and ask them to read this:

and that is because this line so often goes against what the management team believes:

This is a fantastic service, and I will support it any way I can. I was looking for a way to make a donation, but it appears to be ad-supported.

This shows how advances in technology can help people. In the cold war, the US was able to use Radio Free Europe to reach some of the oppressed people in Eastern Europe. Now one man can both help the people of his former homeland set prices, and understand the lies they are being told every day.
It could very well be that different kids respond to different ways of teaching. Also, I think that a really good teacher adapts to the temperament of each kid, and some teachers are just not suited to teach the youngest kids.

There are plenty of counterexamples. My kids have both done quite well with traditional training, as have I. They are both at the top level of the local youth orchestra program. They love classical music, especially the modern stuff. One is also exploring fiddling, the other, singing.

But I've talked to parents, and have told them: The classical thing is great, but if it doesn't work, don't force it to the point where it becomes miserable. Try something else. And just like we don't know why some people seem to learn programming more easily than others, we don't know why some musicians can learn to read. It's kind of a strange skill.

Oddly enough, I've also played electric bass live in front of paying audiences, though the double bass has become my main instrument. Every instrument has its own requirements and learning curve, and each of us gravitates to the instrument that works for our temperament and interests, that change over time. I'm grateful for my classical technique and fluent sight-reading ability, because they figure into the instrument and music that I happen to enjoy playing.

In the Suzuki method, which is favored today, they don't focus on theory or sheet music until the kids have already been playing for a while.
Long polling works brilliantly (where your API call blocks until there are some results or until timeout occurs - then you loop and call again).

Long polling gives you the best of both worlds - easy programming model with instant alerting rather than the delay of normal polling.

The only downside really is the need for a more or less permanently open connection per client. As long as the server does not use a naive "thread per connection" model this can scale up to many hundreds of thousands of clients or more.
In addition to considering a 2015 MBP refurb, I am also thinking about an XPS 15.

I find Windows 10 to be an enormous improvement over 7 and 8; they finally fixed some of the stupid little things that have been issues since NT 3.1. Like the awful terminal emulator or the dialog box for editing environment variables. It seems like Microsoft is finally being run by someone who cares about details.

That would make sense if you had free representation in court. If you've got to pay for your representation, the ones with the most money tend to determine which laws are actually enforceable.

The implication was meant to be that the information under `data/object` is simply a full representation of another API resource of the type on which the event occurred, and that you can look elsewhere in the documentation to see exactly what each type will look like (you can see a subscription embedded in the sample response for example).

Fair enough that we could rewrite this to be more explicit about that though! We'll see what we can do to make that section more clear.

(I work for Stripe.)
Unlikely. There is going to be some sort of audio amplifier in the way that won't transfer signals very well in reverse. Even if it is built in to the audio chip there would be little point in allowing that output to be an input.
> I've had many comments on HN opposing the idea of making it law

It's common here(in the US) for "Greek yogurt" to mean Greek-style yogurt, and we would all ask "why!?" when confronted with that regulation. However, when you read stories like this - maybe that kind of regulation is needed. I've been buying aloe from walmart/target/etc for ages, and always assumed that the ingredient list wasn't a lie - now I realize that is not always true.

MXNet is the only deep learning framework that has proper support for R. That's why I use it and it is pretty nice IMO.
Sure, I use and like both of them. C++ for 3D graphics, Scala for Big Data. Yet I have seen so many things go wrong in both of them so my perspective is a bit different. Imagine if somebody redefines basic operators to mean something different, starts throwing int as exception in C++ or use templates with template parameters with number parameters and you have to figure out what exactly does this thing do? Or in Scala if somebody feels super clever and redefines half of the language by preparing some half-baked barely functioning DSL unable to compile a slightly different code than expected and you have to use it? It's the price you pay in both C++ and Scala for expressibility.

In the truest sense of the word ("that which is to propagated"), yes.

Excellent, concise review. Thank you. There are so many compromises with this machine, I am going to skip this generation.
Not to be too pointed, but would you consider adding this disclaimer to your blog post and github repo? Hopefully that will inform potential users before using a system that could leave them less secure.
It is. I've seen it on multiple computers.
I think the opposite. Speakers are driven by an amplifier that will not let the audio in reverse, even if the soundcard output was switched to act as an input.

Not a proper comparison... The beneficial chemicals in the aloe have no need to be processed at all, cracking a leaf and squeezing out the gel is sufficient.

Crack wheat, sure the kernels are edible and quite healthy - but that's a far cry from bread.
Agree. Its better to use webhooks as a pure signal that something has changed, and then in the case of update or insert, have the client pull whatever they want using normal API.

Otherwise, you end up in a descending vortex of madness trying to specify some protocol whereby the client can specify in advance which properties they care about.
Wait. It's trickier than that because you have to get your product acknowledged by the EU then you get to be authorised to use that name (if your product is compliant with the rules ofc). It's not automatic.

The company talks big about a beautiful vision of multi-purpose cables, carrying power in one direction, data in both directions, etc. They provide one of those cables...but it turns out that it only carries power. So, imagine if your airline was talking about the benefits of brushing your teeth with good toothpaste, and their provided teeth-cleaning kit just has a toothbrush.

Since Apple's shipping a "random USB cable" anyhow, it would make sense for them to ship the version of it that actually does all the things they've been advertising.

Ah the nostalgia of reading the entire guide to BASIC that came with my first computer, an Amstrad CPC6128. (Aside: The A in Amstrad stands for Alan and the S for Sugar, as in Lord Alan Sugar).

The days when it was possible to learn and memorise the entire built-in library of a programming language. I never did work out how to implement a linked list in Amstrad BASIC though.
Methodology doesn't replace good management. Most often I see the trappings of agile used as tool to conceal a lack of planning and means to micromanage and give the illusion of progress.

My long-time-range guess is that this is FB's play for becoming a standard replacement/upgrade for GIFs. From the post:

"Initially, we looked at common static image formats such as PNG sequences and GIFs, as well as even more compressed formats like WebP. It quickly became clear that these wouldn't work without drastically simplifying the animations for file size, and that we'd have to accept the drawback of static images not scaling up or down very well."

So, reading between the lines, they've made what they think is a better GIF. And perhaps it is, and if so, that's big business[1], and so having a first-mover advantage on mobile could be highly profitable. (They're a public A-corporation, after all.)

But who knows; I could be reading too far into it or just flat-out wrong, too!

one by one my dear, one by one. atleast you'll agree that this move makes most of the cash traceable, right?

Also, businesses are corrupt because they dont have a choice, running you businesses clean & paying taxes does not precludes you from having to 'service' the IT dept & netas. So it creates an environment of competitive disadvantage for them. at their level they really cant do much to change the game, just play it. the salaried class is doing these infractions again because poor tracability of transactions hence exponentially larger effort needed to audit. secondly there is a very common sense of 'we are being fleeced' in salaried class so they try to do what they can.

All of this is an argument to fix these large problems not leave them alone with cynicism.
How to achieve cloud agility
Minus the horrific bloat and slow install processes, and when you add a shrinkwrap file (otherwise prod runs who-knows-what)[1]: yeah, npm is pretty fantastic. No conflicts ever, super simple, they did a lot right. Fits in perfectly with the low-developer-brain-cost JS ecosystem.

[1] this is quite a large number of cases, but they are significant drawbacks.
Courts are also very slow comparatively - that and american style "class action" cases are not applicable to many countries, where it may be the case that each individual must file a separate case.
You might want to consider investing in some better gear, like some Ubiquiti APs and a proper firewall appliance (e.g. pfSense or a Ubiquiti firewall as well). For not much more than the cost of your 'premium' home router, you could buy 2-3 APs and a firewall appliance and have a much more reliable configuration (or at least, less to buy when something dies).
No, you're thinking of regional products. So for example, there's one specific type of cheese made in one region of Polish mountains that is called "oscypek" and no other cheese can be called "oscypek", even if it's made by the same methods(or I guess a more well known example is that only sparkling wine made in Champagne region of France can be called "Champagne" legally).

What I am talking about is that every product in EU has to be what it says on the label - so Greek yoghurt has to be from Greece. French wine has to be from France. Apple juice has to contains apple juice, not just apple flavouring, etc etc.
The perfect example of the loser writting history must be the Germans after WW2. The allies captured many of the generals and took much of what they said as true.

The myths spread about this are still around today. The most important one is the primitive red army and its human wave attacks. When in reality the quite often just out generaled as well.

Western history had developed a huge fetisch for German generals like Rommel that is mostly undeserved.

Luckly after the fall of the USSR we were able to find out a lot more about the Soviet side. Equalling out story.

I live in the Bronx and work in Manhattan. You're obviously not going to find aloe growing in central park, but there are at least half a dozen other plants there that can be used to treat minor burns and other skin conditions. E.g. plantago, jewelweed, witch hazel, etc.

"Acemannan has been misinterpreted," Meadows said. "The cosmetics industry requires highly processed aloe. How that affects acemannan is anybody’s guess."

Even the cosmetics industry admits that they don't have a clue (not even a guess) about what happens to Aloe after it's been processed for inclusion into their products, so it may not have any of the original properties. (acemannan makes up about 15% of aloe)
Or class-action lawsuits.
I've been working with and on a project that uses a similar architecture. At least, it's using a Redux-like dataflow borrowed from ReSwift; views are standard iOS.

The benefits I've seen so far:

- Swift's type safety means you can validate at the type level that your app state is correct. As in, you could have an enum with separate cases for your authenticated and unauthenticated states, instead of optional values to indicate what state you're in. This makes your state stronger, in that the types hold only valid states rather than some possible states being invalid (e.g. unauthenticated with non-nil user info).

- State transitions -- reducer methods, (state,action) -> state -- are purely functional which makes (IMHO) feature work straightforward, testing trivial, and debugging fairly easy.

- Your view controllers become super dumb. All they have to do is render the data and relay input events. This is a nice clean separation of concerns.

- If your navigation route is managed in state, you get deep linking "for free". This is especially helpful in one of our apps for handling global errors that could occur on any network request (update state, route to error).

- Every bit of code has an easily identifiable home.

- Communicating between view controllers is simple. Rather than "passing the baton" as state is accumulated (say a multistep form), state accumulates naturally in the store.

I'm working on combining ReSwift with app coordinators here: https://github.com/willowtreeapps/cordux

I've written about it a little bit here:
http://willowtreeapps.com/blog/app-coordinators-and-redux-on...

All that said, I still consider this an experiment. We've written about 40-50k lines of Swift across two apps with 8 developers so far, and opinions are mixed between considering it excellent and considering it burdensome.
"State-sponsored news" - will I see that tag next to NPR articles? What about wikileaks?

I have very mixed feelings about this. I know that Facebook is a company and can censor or allow whatever they want to. They censor obscene and offensive stuff, sure. But deciding what is "true" and "false" is a whole new ball game. Do we want to get used to having a central authority telling us what's true and false? If I want to say something stupid on Facebook, I should be allowed to say it.

Remember that you can have an authority run by a trusted leader one day, and someone else the next.

What it says it does is "contain aloe vera". It doesn't do that.
This is a special case of a general principle. Engineering and coding are crafts, not assembly line work. A craft is a field where the individual human being matters a lot. No "methodology" will make less skilled or experienced craftspeople perform as well as better ones, though the inverse is true so good management does matter.

I go out for Italian food all the time, and I don't expect it came from Italy. At least here in the US, saying "I'm going to eat some Chinese Noodles/Greek Yogurt/Indian Curry" implies you're only talking about the style. I think it's a slightly different situation.
That is a terrible solution (not in a vacuum, just to the stated problem).

The problem was stated by an OEM selling traditional guitars, who needed their new customers to learn their first song so they purchase again in the future.

This is a non-scaling, costly solution that does a worse job of tackling the problem. The goal is to sell more Fender Stratocasters, not have your customers buy a non-guitar from somebody else. Maybe a good solution for a different problem, but not for the problem we're addressing here.
Barring a bit of water and salt, yes. Bread's (generally) made of processed wheat. As with aloe vera gel, processing can change the texture a bit.
Problem is, the side that says lugenpresse is also loathe to criticize their standard-bearer, and many believe that people who criticize him should be punished.

False equivalence is far worse than fake news; it's the legitimization of the factually true and the morally wrong.
Pip has the same kinds of issues with transitive dependencies, but way way way worse since it doesn't allow multiple versions. When you have lib A requiring C ("A -> C1") and "B -> C2", the version of C you get depends on which of A or B was installed first, because the second's requirements are flat-out ignored.

Probably like 90% of the python projects I've looked at have requirement-conflicts because pip doesn't even warn you about this.
Perhaps putting the Smith-Mundt Act back in place would be a start. https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130715/11210223804/anti-...
The article indicates aloe vera gel is typically produced by drying and powdering the aloe, which seems like it'd change the texture significantly. It may contain other stuff like a mild local anesthetic, colorants, preservatives, etc.
