I don't think you can fix a lack of professionalism but I can't tell if that is actually the problem you're experiencing.

Sometimes management says one thing ("This is really important!") but sends the opposite signal with their actions. Companies spend money on what they actually think is important. For example, my wife worked for a famous financial company that would sometimes ask full time employees to work on weekends - but never the contractors (they won't work for free). This sends the message that the deadline really isn't that important.

A friend works for a major defense contractor. They recently stopped paying for the first 5 hours of overtime. Managers still want their deadlines met so they can get their bonuses. Unsurprisingly, "You guys need to work for free so I can
get my bonus" isn't a compelling reason for the employees (who don't have the same upside) to work longer hours.
This is a good low-tech solution!
I have to admit that I'm not, but I do think that iOS's is deeply flawed, especially considering its snap to behavior which has no overrides or disambiguation for where to snap. I'm not a UX person and my mind doesn't naturally work on that domain, and yet I'm confident that UX people could improve the process.

One concrete idea comes to mind - why not a modal dialog that only has selection abilties. If the default behavior works, then use it and if not, move up to the modal

I volunteered massive amounts of my time for mozilla for more than a decade now, not only developing. I do not consider my previous statement rushed, but a realistic prediction based in a decent foundation of experience and knowledge, and - rather unfortunately - so far I am right and there is no indication that that's about to change.

I'd really like to share your optimism here, but really, knowing what I know, I just cannot.
Thankful to have a passport which allows me to travel almost anywhere (probably the most overlooked advantage of being born in a first world country).
Did you happen to come from the year 2035? Let us know how it is.
You're referring to today. 30 years is a long time technologically. Especially given the extreme market pressure that is beginning in regards to electric vehicles and home + utility storage. You've no doubt seen the lithium storage to price curve and that's pathetic battery technology compared to what is ahead of us. Batteries will improve dramatically in all regards (battery skeptics previously universally failed to predict the lithium battery price plunge).

My premise is that the majority of oil demand will be gone in 30 years or so, not all of it. Losing the automobile industry to electric (nothing can stop that over the coming 30 years) will cut oil demand in half globally without anything else changing. Venezuela is cursed with mediocre quality oil that isn't easily extracted, so they'll be the first losers as oil demand falls (Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Russia as low cost producers will be the last standing and will fill that last 50% of the market that more slowly erodes).
I think you're missing the point. Cute and Russia already benefited from the results of this election. A more divided Europe, check? A United States. that is looking to lessen its global role, check. A contentious, divisive circus of an election where a significant number of people have some doubts on the results, check. A splintering EU, check. A less unified NATO alliance with a weaker US role, under even more threat with surging populist movements rising, check. All this without one single bullet fired and probably nit that much money spent. Putin may be a lot of things, but i cant help but respect how he operates. He's a bad man.

This election has been cyber warfare's coming out party. Even The greatest military and economic force in the world is susceptible to major attacks and that will not change for a while. Recruiting hackers or obtaining assets otherwise must more cost effective diplomatic tool than some over budget multi billion dollar weapons system. I guess thats progress that we have one more tool to use before going to a hot war, but its asymmetrical nature gives regimes like NK a more level playing field.

The rhetoric bloviated by Trumpf has alreafy caused a great amount of concern and in uncertainty. What kind of asshole just casually mentions that yeah, we might not honor treaties that were signed in good faith
With Trump in office, you also have a United States much more likely to make a deal in Syria and accept Assad and also accept a new reality in Crimea/Ukraine. IMO, the US is too fixated on Assad leaving. So fucking stupid. How many more times do we need to see what happens when you remove a strong man from that area of the world. Getting rid of Saddam and Qaddafi for "moderate" rebels sure worked out great /s.
same here. five guys burgers are better and their fries are much better.
Are you sure? Okay say you found out about Renaissance at 14--were you really going to spend the next decade and a half of your life working towards getting into and then completing a Phd in physics or math from a prestigious program just for the chance to interview at Renaissance?
Actually that is the least suspicious. They knew it was a bubble and bet against it. Like the guys in The Big Short. You make money when the market is far from reality.

This is a better way of saying what I stated in my first paragraph, and, really, a better way of saying my whole comment if you don't care to see the details of my conclusion.
Not responsible for this census, but I've done work with it in the past. Two observations:

The questions are largely derivative and the same each year: cost to develop and test while maintaining statistical validity and capture of all possible scenarios, while still being interpreted correctly by the population, is enormous.

Secondly, the number of permutations and combinations of answers is almost universally underestimated by everyone I've ever met outside of this process. Nationality is not the same as birthplace is not the same as parent is not the same as adults in the household. The amount of diversity is staggering.

Additionally, although those two are the primary reasons for the question designs (and I assure you, people will be doing deductions and logical inferences on the back-end once the data is collected), being exhaustive at the point of data entry rather than deductive allows for further meta analysis on the data entry process and survey responding experience itself, whereas if you decide to attempt to deduce, you miss out on a dimension of typo, misskey, misinterpretation, and other analysis data that you would forgo in the former case.
I dropped that book. Fortune's Formula is much better.
One of our[0] US competitors, Momentum Machines[1], has apparently been trying to do a custom burger machine for 5+ years and spent many millions on the effort. Apparently they want to open a robotic sit-down burger restaurant. I'm glad we're focused on more global and less polarized/unhealthy-perception area of noodles+soups, and are sticking to a pre-order + take-away model. I'm also glad we don't have to deal with US regulations.

Its because healthy people don't goto McDonald's for food, they go to better restaurants like Panera Bread and Corner Bakery. McDonald's should go back to a simpler menu and stop trying to please the critics. Are are trying so hard to please everyone and not doing a great job at it. I mean you go into an In-N-Out and you only have a few choices but they are always busy and the employees are smiling and working hard. Burger isn't too bad for the price either.

Now as for me I prefer Smash Burger, followed by Five Guys and In-N-Out.
I was responding to the parent.

Debate is fruitless when the chief facts are mischaracterized in an attempt to soften their impact.

Edit: It looks like the parent edited their comment. That's unfortunate.
I would be pretty annoyed if a good chunk of the paranoid pizzagate believing Internet spent all day calling me a pedophile.
Just trust your leaders and FUD will not work.
Sure, like it's always easier to let yourself be tracked. Why would I for any random link though?
Voting with your wallet is something, but it's certainly not fair, so not necessarily the "single most important thing an individual can do". Why? The votes (money) aren't evenly distributed.
I'd love to hear more about your idea. Care to expand with an example of how it would work? What kind of overrides are you thinking of? What would the role of the modal dialog be?
It's highly stable and has been quite consistent for decades of data. Those low murder states in particular have been extremely stable when it comes to being in the low bracket.

Louisiana for example has had a high murder rate for a long time (as has eg Chicago) and states like Idaho, New Hampshire, Maine, Washington etc have had low murder rates for as long as the US has had meaningful data on murder.

I'd argue the opposite, chance plays zero role when it comes to the wide variance in murder rates among states.
Still, the stronger toxicity of online community is a thing. So is the agressiveness in cars. Several studies have shown how anonimity and not seeing the other person disinhibits agressive behavior
Oh exactly, the place I went to last time, which does a rotating menu, didn't even have a beef burger. Only beef sliders, and then various variations on burgers.
This website seems so gimmicky.

DJing is interesting because, while people who listen to DJs would not notice any difference in this approach, people who are familiar with mixing or are DJs would say strictly that this is not DJing.

This is in contrast with, say, playing the violin. There's no debate over if somebody is actually playing the violin - one does or does not.

I think the point of this, beyond any snobbery, is that there is a craft to DJing that is of great value to the DJs and those who are familiar, but its impact on the typical listener happens to be negligible.

So if you're interested in DJing because you primarily care about others' responses to your DJing, this is a satisfactory route. If you're interested in learning the nuances of a craft involving highly technical and intricate mixing then that's an altogether different path.
I find In-n-Out so overrated. The burgers are okay, but nothing special. However, their fries are totally worthless. Five guys has hands down the best fries of any fast food chain.
The information about a PDVSA default spread by the enemies of the fatherland is totally false <-- there should be a word for "A denial which is phrased in such a fashion as to make listening observers think it is more likely, not less likely, that the thing being denied actually happened."
Shake shack is the reason this trend has completely jumoed the shark here in Los Angeles. Premium burger prices for just a little better

I'm very thankful to have quit my job to travel and freelance 8 months ago.

It wasn't all pretty but I have grown and challenged myself in many ways that I otherwise would not have been able to!

I'd be glad to discuss with anyone interested in doing the same either over a Tokyo beer or email (:
I meant it in a sarcastic way. Sadly that doesn't come through text.
At least two good reasons that you would have things running locally:
Latency sensitive applications

True of modern EFI, but older mechanical fuel injectors did not have O2 sensors.
Hehe, that's some well placed cynicism. I've been looking in to what makes a noodle dish (normally a noodle soup) from various parts of Burma/China/Laos/Thailand/Vietnam/Japan unique, and it's been fascinating. I would say there's far more variety in Asia than in Italy.

Landlords do not get rich in the manner you insinuate. They get wealthy in the very long run. But not rich.

Really? Blaming religion? Most religions I know of celebrate sex as a sort of communion with god or an act of worship.
I don't think this is true anymore [1]. They're bundling IntelliJ with custom OpenJDK (with needed bug fixes) in recent releases.

I thought the presentation was very good. I was pleasantly surprised that the design was professional and modern looking.

It seemed to be a single page application because once you got started it was fast to get through the process. I suspect the SPA nature was a deliberate decision to offload workload from the servers. Imagine how much more traffic would been needed if every page/section on the form required another call to the server.

I wouldn't exactly consider Panera bread better than McDonald's. Panera's food is incredibly bland.
Of course urban areas are radically more dangerous when it comes to murder. The murder rates in US cities are drastically higher per capita than in rural and suburban areas, that isn't even remotely up for discussion, it's a fact that stretches back to the beginning of US data on murder.

I'm not sure why you emphasize that murder rates are per capita, that proves the point you're trying to deny. The per capita murder rates in cities are far higher. The very high city per capita murder rates in the US are the reason the US murder rate is so high.

Let me be clear, I think redis is a well engineered piece of software and I have been constantly impressed with the way antirez runs the project.

Specifically for the question of a locking service, I need more availability than what a single node can offer. I'm not sure if you are advocating for using redis cluster as a locking service, but since it intentionally doesn't offer write safety during a partition that does not seem advisable.
Nobody is going to kill anybody unless they are paid for thugs. The National Assembly has the opposition in control by a vast majority after the latest election. Maduro and friends are in deep crap and they know it, which is why they have been delaying by any means possible anything related to elections.

I can bet you even those new engineers at PDVSA will be voting to oust Maduro as well when the time comes. People are fed up with the lines for everything, and low wages caused by the massive inflation. What is needed right now is a proper vehicle to channel all that, which will need to be different from the opposition since they are closely resembling eunuchs of old times.
I don't think this is any more convincing than the article's reasons. There are closed forms to lots of things that aren't interesting.

Really? So C=Q/V isn't a thing any more?

What other laws of physics have changed since I was in school?

The important factor for charging time is how many joules/second you can stuff in, not how much current (coulombs/second) is flowing.

You can pull a helluva lot more joules/second out of a wall outlet than you can a micro-USB connector.
I give it a year before it collapses like a flan in a cupboard. No way it has 3,000 companies using it as per the press release.

vote manipulation by a foreign government is solved by having a verifiable id/token in the first place.

vote manipulation by the government the election is happening for isn't really something you can solve because in that case the election isn't the problem.
My wording was awkward. If you start with a mortgage, and can hold on to the property or stuff through the crisis, you come out wealthy.

I hope if you're that smart you would at least apply it to something more worthwhile.
See my other comment further down, but I just thought of another issue again:

Design consideration has to be given to how/what people will be using to access said questions.

If it looks like a web form from the 1990s , ask yourself what kind of technology some Australians might be using to try to fill out their census form, and how standard we have to try to keep that interface/experience.
So I only worked on the ext4 encryption feature in the Linux kernel which was used to implement Android FBE, and so I'm not an expert on vold, but there shouldn't be a reason why vold needs to hang on to the key. Vold is responsible for pushing the keys into the kernel, but what ext4 uses to do the per-file encryption is stored on a kernel keyring, not in userspace. So vold should be destroying the key after it loads it into memory --- it certainly can't use the key for anything useful.

As far as being able to remove the keys while the phone is locked --- I can't comment on future product directions, but it's fair to say that the people working on the upper layers of the Android security system aren't idiots, and the limitations of what was landed in the Android N release was known to them. It is no worse than what we had in older versions of Android (with FDE, we were using dm-crypt, and the keys were living in the kernel as well), and while it doesn't help improve security with respect to the "evil maid" attack, it does significantly improve the user experience.

I agree that there is certainly room to improve, and note that future changes will require applications to make changes in how they access files, which does make it a much trickier change to introduce into the ecosystem without breaking backwards compatibility with existing applications.

As far as why different keys are being used for different profiles --- this makes it much easier to securely remove a corporate, "work" profile from a phone without needing to do a secure erase on the entire flash device --- either because an employee is leaving their existing employer and there is corp data on a BYOD phone/tablet, or because the phone has been lost, and corporate security policy about how quickly corp data should be zapped from the phone might be different from what the user might want to exercise when they have temporarily misplaced the phone. (e.g., you might have a different tradeoff of losing unbacked-up data from your personal files versus their getting compromised while you hope that someone turns in your phone to lost+found than your company's security policies might require.)
> As far as costs, you understand that people do thousands of tasks on mechanic turk for pennies right?

You still have to invest either your time or hire someone to set things up for the mechanical turk setup - the opportunity cost you pointed out earlier. And pennies per turk isn't worth it if your ROI is micropennies per turk. Depending on how much friction there is, it may be cheaper to trick your turks into running the bitcoin miner on their own computers.

Not saying there's no potential for abuse - as you say, there is - but saying there's "no costs" and that "You literally can't lose" is about as accurate as saying there's "no profits" and that "You literally can't win". Unless CPU bitcoin mining is wildly more profitable than my understanding, given that you're competing against GPU and ASIC miners.

Maybe one of the alt-currencies that are supposedly harder to GPU mine...?
Before census day they were predicting two thirds of the 10 million Australian households to complete the census online. They stated their site had been tested with half a million concurrent users and was able to sustain double that.

Unfortunately no one seems to have considered that the majority of users would do it after dinner (say 6-10pm). Take the 6.6 million users divide it by the time frame and it was never going to work with a 1 million per hour capacity.

What is interesting is with IBM paying out they must have failed to deliver the required capacity. I thought it more likely the government had not tendered it properly and requested a lower capacity than needed but obviously IBM just tried to cut costs and under resource the operation.
I'm curious on the graph database claims - how is this different to MongoDB using _from/_to attributes to represent edges? It certainly looks better than MongoDB in all other aspects (though to improve on MongoDB would not be difficult!).

How will it get the performance of a Neo4J,Titan et al. with this model? Does it index them specially?

Seems odd to ignore Gremlin and OpenCypher just to have a proprietary / "yet another standard" graph query language.
Yes, then I misunderstood your comment, and in that case I agree.
Verifiable vote technology generally does not reveal who the vote was cast for, only that the vote was cast and included in the tally. This makes issues of coercion or vote selling moot.
If you step outside of the major US cities, the murder rate per capita plunges. That variance in the US is far beyond what you see in other developed nations (eg Britain, Sweden, Finland, France, Belgium, Germany, Japan, etc). It's so bad that if you just brought the three dozen worst urban sub-areas down to normal as compared to the rest of the city in question, you'd reduce the total US murder rate more than a full point.
That's not walking around money.

A modal is the kludgiest way to accomplish it, but say you only wanted a portion of the text in the selected box. The modal would have dedicated selection inputs so that you could zoom and carve the block up. Frequently websites lock the viewport which makes it much harder to get the text you want.

Just in general I think the snap behavior needs to be massively overhauled
