I've been waiting on this for years! Not specifically THIS, but hardware along these lines. I'd like to see at least 4GB of RAM, and then I think that I could use this with Alpine Linux as my daily driver. Not quite perfect yet, but very close to what I want!
One issue with the "OS X" name was that you have to use a non-breaking space (alt+space) between OS and X to prevent awkward line breaks in the middle of the brand, which in turn made it harder to search for "OS X" in dumb text editors.
Agreed. I've been using Django for only a little while, and sometimes find it quite frustrating. Then something finally makes sense and I realise I've been doing it wrong and the proper way makes everything soooo easy. The trick is to know when you're doing it the wrong way which isn't always apparent.

I've been running Arch on a Dell Chromebook and battery life and sleep/wake are essentially the same as with ChromeOS from what I've seen so far. Awesome experience.
I can tell you've never really used any high end Android phones lately. People like you probably formulate their opinions of Android based upon the $30 phones they buy. Try out a Pixel, S7 or a One Plus 3 some time. Android surpassed Windows Phone a long time ago and the Pixel is on par with the iPhone.
I can relate.

I received an offer from Two Sigma, then failed the background check because of something seven years earlier.

If I had known just how much that event would end up costing me.
> There's no "origin" to homosexuality

Did I use the word "origin" incorrectly? Because evolution of a second sexual system in these birds results in white-striped birds and tan-striped ones mating only with the other almost all the time instead of always all the time, homosexuality is being built into the differentiation of a species into 2 sexes, I presume because DNA processing can never be error-free. I didn't imply it starts happening after the differentiation.

I had a similar experience at [ a large company ] I used to work for. Had a French Press sitting out on my desk, was quite a bit cheaper than getting coffee in the cafeteria. Came in one morning, it was gone and had been replaced with a nasty note from security. Coffee makers were a banned item (due to fire hazard), so that meant that the French Press (as well as pour overs) were also banned, as they are used to make coffee. Rumor has it that they would also confiscate single-serve coffee pouches too.
There's very good reasons why Apple doesn't trust it and does something different. When so much of the phone security relies on it, it's very important to get it right.

The fact that squared error is differentiable is not irrelevant. You can solve some machine learning models faster with differentiable objectives (most notably xgboost). Speed is important, you need to optimize your models and the longer it takes to run a model the less things you can try.

I love the idea of more "fast casual" burger places but I wish that people would have a normal burger on the menu if they're also going to experiment. Regular bun (ciabatta or sourdough is really hard to bite through and sends the ingredients fleeing out the sides), regular cheese (even Anthony Bourdain agrees[0], use something that melts like American or some other "fake" cheese), regular toppings (you can experiment with the other stuff but have lettuce, tomato, pickle, uncooked sliced or diced onion, and mustard/mayonnaise/ketchup available), and for all that is good and wonderful REGULAR MEAT (80/20 ground chuck with nothing "ground in," please).

I'm not saying that's the perfect burger, I'm saying it's becoming increasingly difficult in Seattle to find that as a "normal" burger. Something without the addition of kale, beets, sprouts, buffalo/bison/turkey/emu mix, or on some unholy bread that was never meant to sustain the stuff on a regular burger. Two places do an amazing job of "your basic burger and fries for a good price with nothing crazy" that I've found so far: A Burger Place and Burger/Kabob Hut, both in the U District.

I spent some time in the US when I was in my late teens and it was the first time I saw French toast or, as we call it in the UK, Eggy Bread served with syrup on it. I didn't know where to put myself. It sounded horrific. I actually tried some and it wasn't as bad as I was expecting but got to say, I prefer it with my salt, pepper, tomato ketchup and sausages.
That's marvelous, and more or less the perfect solution.

@jjuhl answered that question somewhere else in the thread with homomorophic encryption (Numberphile : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BYRTvoZ3Rho ): The hash out of the machine doesn't tell who you voted for, but the sum of the hashes do tally properly. It's still unclear for me, but it's sure that there are mathematical solutions.
If you have significant lock-ups once an hour, you should troubleshoot. Probably one of your add-ons causing the issue. Your RAM usage might very well go down with that as well, and if you disable a few of your add-ons during troubleshooting, chances are also that Electrolysis (multiprocess) will get enabled for you, which should significantly improve performance.
One alternative is you get the standards and quite a few components (eg FOSS) that help meet them. You aren't evaluated unless you're sued due to harms from your product. The potential fines or damages go up with the amount of negligence they find. This way, it only costs money when harm happens.

Meanwhile, people wanting to use higher security as a differentiator can get evaluated ahead of time as some do now.
As someone who works in the semiconductor industry, I'm worried that joining an AI hardware company is a risky move that will falter just like General Magic and other hyped hardware startups.
You say "Note this part of the article", then ignore it yourself in order to talk about something else.

Or you could look at the murder rate by state, that's fascinating as well given the dramatic difference you see between them.

Vermont, New Hampshire, Iowa, Idaho, North Dakota, Wyoming (about 8 million people between them) all have murder rates lower than Canada, Belgium and Finland.

Maine, Minnesota, South Dakota, Hawaii, Utah, Oregon, Montana, Washington all have relatively low murder rates.

I'd love to hear your explanation for what causes the wide variance between some states on murder rate.
It's almost like it's easier to loot and entire country when the government controls a significant amount of it.

The business case would be to have a phone os that people love, like Apple does.

Android would be my preferred os, if it actually worked properly. Most lay people I know feel the same. A new Android device is a joy for the few months before it falls to pieces, then it's a necessary headache, much like windows was a decade ago.

If you dominate a market with a product no one loves, you better be a locked-in telecom. Otherwise, as Microsoft learned, your dominance may be surprisingly fragile.
Acer Chromebook R13 seems pretty nice, 13.3", glossy full HD screen, 12-hour battery, I think it runs android apps. (350$ in Amazon right now)

I'm waiting for the previously announced, but now delayed Samsung Chromebook Pro. It's thinner, has a higher-rez screen, and has the pen-technology of the 'note' tablets. (rumored 500$)

What I would really like to see is a Tegra X1 based laptop with a nice IPS screen, preferably something matte.

"They can print money to fulfil those obligations, "

Not really.

By 'printing money' they are simply 'taking value away from those already holding Bolivars'.

Printing money is just devaluing the Bolivars already in circulation - so you can think of it as a 'tax on cash'.

You can print paper, but you can't 'print' economic value and production.

Printing money to pay gov. employees is basically a 100% sign to everyone in the world that 'this economy is destroyed' - and that they should shut down all operations, cut their loses, get all their money out and exit in every way.

So it's a pretty bad signal.
I own a Pine 64 board (2GB RAM, 1 gigabit ethernet) based on the same Allwinner A64 SoC. It performs OK for light tasks (Debian), however, it lacks proper graphic acceleration (which is OK for using it as a build server, but short if you want e.g. play YouTube videos, so unless in the case of the laptop hardware accelerated graphics are provided, it would be hard to use it comfortably -if they do, I would love to buy one!-).
It was done successfully before. Resulted in most secure products ever to exist. A few still use such methods with excellent results during pentests. Also preempted major vulnerabilities in popular stuff. Bell, of Bell-LaPadula security model, describes it here:

> cutting machine

Do you remember "hanging chads"?

But yeah, that's the crux of the idea: have a machine take the voter's choices, to effectively eliminate accidentally-spoiled ballots (the design of the "hanging chads" machines was sorely lacking on this point); but then have it produce a physical record, visually checked by the voter, to enable auditing & recounts.

Counting the hard copies would be the definitive source of truth, just like traditional paper ballots - any automated score-keeping would just be a bonus for early result reporting (although might also stand in for the manual count in "safe seats" where no-one cares to dispute the expected result).
But their laptops are still ugly. Industrial design is hard, I get it. But still, at those prices...
I had always assumed that SourceTree was a portable Qt app (it looks like it, doesn't it?), but it's only available on macOS and Windows.

Tower and GitUp are a huge lock-in into macOS for me. Tower for line-by-line staging/discarding, GitUp for minor history fix-ups (editing a commit message without remembering the CLI command, etc.).
Security on F4 is way better. I haven't found a way to circumvent the JTAG fuse - but to be honest, I never really tried as I don't have access to proper glitching hardware.
Given your animosity towards Android and all things Google I'm really not surprised. I recently installed Android Studio on my Mac and was pleasantly surprised how well the IDE and emulator performed. This was in stark contrast to the pig that is Visual Studio that I installed on my PC that sprayed 30GB of data all over my SSD.
I think not strictly a bug, just surprising behavior. They linked to the documentation that shows that it is "expected" to work like that, and to two requests for features to help mitigate this issue.
Nobody benefits in the long run. Nobody. Everyone loses when money printing happens.

What you pointed out - i.e. 'those holding property' - they don't 'benefit' - so much as their assets are in something that can't depreciate so quickly as currency.

If government prints massive bolivars - well - their houses go up by that amount proportionally. So they are somewhat 'insulated' from the inflation problems.

Now - because 'money printing' is a 100% signal of economic collapse, no 'asset' is going to save you at the end of the day, because as everything falls apart ... nobody has any money for anything, or rather, they have wads of worthless paper that nobody else wants ...

a) I would rather hire someone who needs some guidance but gets along with the team rather than an arrogant coding genius.

b) "Programming interview" = "coding quiz" which means it only measures how well someone can remember something from school or how well they can take tests, neither of which is relevant to any real world job.

c) Successful "coding quiz" by no means indicates one's ability to write software in any capacity outside the given quiz parameters less so as part of a team and even less so among multitude of teams which typically is required to deliver any real life product other than the multitude of *ly.coms or whatever is the trendy naming convention is this week.
This is categorically incorrect. They are not a high frequency shop, and they hold positions overnight. Two Sigma, however is a high frequency shop.

As a long time Cassandra user its easy to forget that some of Cassandra's semantics will be surprising to new users. That being said, if you are considering adopting an AP database it really is important for you to know the details about how write conflicts get resolved. This is perhaps the biggest difference between Cassandra other databases like Riak and ought to be part of your decision making process instead of a surprise you run into later.

That being said, using Cassandra for distributed locks is a terrible idea. I can't think of any way in which Cassandra would be better than using {Zookeeper,etcd,consul}. Trying to force a database to do something it really isn't designed for will almost always lead to disappointment (and often resentment) of said database.
They realize it. Impenetrable systems are also impenetrable to FBI and NSA which advise against the good stuff being mandated. The bribes they take from COTS vendors also brought in a preference for insecure solutions from samd vendors. Everyone paying them wants to maximize profit, too. Costly rewrites will cut into that.

So, they're willingly covering their ears while sitting on their asses. At least those on major committees.
Sure. But I was searching for something XSS specific
Too logical ;)
The most interesting thing about Venezuela's oil, is that by the time they could get around to extracting any meaningful volume (in proportion to the total), oil will have lost the majority of its demand. Venezuela has maybe 30 years tops to extract as much oil as they can before the bottom falls out. The odds are, they'll never see even a small fraction of that wealth extracted, it'll remain in the ground and the time of oil will pass.
I don't have a pixel but I've had a bunch of other flagships. The real test, that they all failed, is longevity. Android just doesn't seem able to survive a year of full use without deteriorating into a mess of glitches, one that no developer i know, myself included, has figured out how to fully salvage short of flashing a new ROM.

The term doesn't even apply here since the physical expression of gender is more complicated than the typical binary variant seen in mammals.

white/male + white/female is not "homosexual" by any conventional definition. If anything it's "homomorphic".

Birds, like any creature, don't do anything all the time. I think you're reading way too much into these observations.
You may laugh, but I just finished a gig working on this. Watch this space.
Cassandra is a piece of shit. Negative that comment how you wants, this never change the initial info. I used that BS on a startup on data science on the crawling info level and was on the worst experiences with db I had. CASSANDRA IS JUST PAIN.

>>> ... but how you will distinguish fake votes from real ones?

Easy. Serial numbers. Like any other anonymous system (paper money, raffle tickets etc) you assign a number to every valid ballot. Should the same number appear twice, or not appear, then you know something fishy is happening. Any extra fake ballots should be discovered, so long as the originals are not removed from the systems. Throw the numbers around randomly and creating undetectable fakes become very difficult.
WHY is this flagged?
> Keeping the user in mind when making these decisions may make you consider more native and less resource-intensive alternatives

Usually the choice for the user is between "have an electron app in a month" and "have native app in a year", most users prefer to not wait, and when native app comes in a year, electron app will have much more polish, and run acceptably on new hardware.

The issue is not about 'protecting poor users'.

Most electron apps are quick experiments, to test out an idea without spending too much resources on it.

If idea is great, and performance is an issue, and there are enough users to get a team of highly skilled developers to work on it, they'll create native app, replace electron version (and then embed js vm to support plugins:).
Aw! We were missing some entity definitions in BillBot - we lost them while translating everything in English. We added "Security" and "Camera" but not "Security camera", so the two product quantities were summed together. It should be fixed right now :) Thank you for your report.

Same reason many wanted to emulated Microsoft — they don't know any better. Many claim "it works for Google" without giving it much thought (not a surprise in today's world) but does it really? Google, among others, is a hot mess and precisely for this reason — they hire people who are great in passing tests but can barely function socially and professionally.

But hey — it keeps them busy and removes them from competition, so it's not a bad thing.

Shouldn't Cassandra be using Lamport timestamps or even vector clocks there? Relying on timer and its resolution sounds strange for a database, especially a distributed one.
This is a military dictatorship, they're not going to make a coup.

Maduro may be a civilian, but when you take a look at the people that hold all the ministries and important positions in the government, you see they are all former military that were put there by Chavez. This was his plan all along, the problem is he died.

The military has every incentive not to let the government fall. They are the ones controlling everything and every single bit of corruption must pass through the military first. They control the currency, industry and even the drug trafficking.

You think they are gonna let the government fall and possibly be tried and be brought to justice in the
future?

Unfortunately, the only way out I see for the country is an Ukraine or Egypt like situation where the military basically kills people in the streets for a month or two and then some kind of agreement is reached where they are granted immunity from justice. Or they take off their masks and just declare a formal military dictatorship.
It really depends on how the market shapes up. You might see one software company rise to dominance where they interoperate with different platforms interchangeably, or you might see a single hardware vendor come to dominate a number of much smaller software vendors.

NVidia is the horse to bet on now, but it remains to be seen how they can can expand beyond their current model of leaning heavily on their GPU technology.

As AI becomes more pervasive you'll want to have it integrated into smaller, more power conscious devices, such as would be the case in robotics. Does NVidia have a solution here that scales down? Clearly they're focused on scaling up, as that's where the money is today.
The museum of science and technology in Ottawa had a working demo of a stepper switch. When you hear one in action you quickly realize how a rotary telephone works and why it makes the noise it does.

This is inaccurate. ARM SOCs are all different and tightly closed. Which ARM SOC can you run on Linux without support from third party open source developers?

You need more than just CPU support for it to be usable, and most mainline support is the minimum to make the Android part of it work. Drivers for all the hardware bits are tied tightly to Android. Is there any ARM SOC yet that ARM has said can run Linux out of the box?

Only the rasberry pi works on the latest mainline and that is due to the work done by the foundation and there too the GPU driver is a blob.
