We see hints in the Trump campaign (and concrete evidence in the Obama campaign) that a lot of the cost for running is interfacing with entities that expect a lot of money to play ball.

It may be that a canny candidate with a good but small PR department can do just as well. Certainly Twitter, YouTube and Facebook seem to be having outsized impact and they're relatively inexpensive.
I suppose this is better than when the disk usage wouldn't grow at all.

It's not all that terrible to manage this yourself under light-to-medium usage, but if you're constantly experimenting with new machines and run into this more than once a week I'd say it's time to use docker remotely.

> According to his 100 day plan

His 100 day plan says a lot of things, like 'cut taxes for the middle class', but if you look at his actual tax plan most of the benefits go to the top 1% and many middle class earners (especially single parents) will see their taxes increase: http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/personalfinance/2016/11/...

I wouldn't trust his 100 day plan further than I can throw it.

Yes, there is a status register, every processor must have one (or else the processor couldn't function). Doesn't matter whether you compare 5 to a register (or memory location, depending on the processor), or memory / register to 5, the same bit(s) will still be set in the status register.

Yes. The prebuilt binaries can be used with GPUs that support CUDA 8.0 and have compute capability 3.5 or 5.2. The package is now in PyPI, so you can install the latest version with `pip install tensorflow-gpu`.

You misunderstood me. I don't argue that there is a binary choice, nor do I argue that unregulated capitalism is what we need.

I'm merely arguing that corruption isn't inherently tied to capitalism or any other economic system. That Governments will always be corrupt.
Meaning that blaming capitalism for being "corrupt" is about as productive as blaming people for being selfish.
That doesn't recurse into subdirectories.
I specifically kept it vague for reasons of anonymity, as these types of statements have cost people their jobs in the past, and also due to the fact that what I described was work habits of people I talk to across different engineering roles (software, hardware, infrastructure) in the company I work for.

You can work less than 60 hours, but it will show in your output, as deadlines are aggressive and set tops down.

Examples of the kind of thing someone is answering emails in the early morning for is bugs discovered in your code, a regression that's failing, or something found that's blocking another coworkers' progress (since they were working late into the night as well).

Finally, no more docker!
We'll probably use AHCI since hyperkit https://github.com/docker/hyperkit (the Mac hypervisor based on xhyve based on bhyve) lacks a virtio-scsi implementation at the moment. When the VM sends a TRIM ("these blocks aren't used any more, you can free them") we need to make use of this on the host. On Linux/BSD you could tell the host OS that the blocks aren't needed in the file using something like FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and the kernel would take care of it e.g. by send TRIMs to the real storage device or shuffling filesystem metadata around. Unfortunately the Mac filesystems in common use don't support this so we'll need to manage this ourselves, e.g. by moving blocks from the end of the file into the middle and shrinking the file.

It's worrying that he tweets that. It's like he doesn't have a clue about the first amendment or the rule of law. We elected him to be president, not to be a dictator.

So he's, essentially, ignorant about American civics. It's a shame that he's ignorant, and more of a shame that a person ignorant on that topic got elected. That said, the courts are supposed to limit the effect of such ignorance about how the system works, and about what our rights are.

If the courts start failing in that role, that will be cause for very serious concern.
How does that matter? Fact is you move from 5.7 to 5.8 and boom, no sudo. Check the release notes, and yeah, it's replaced with Ted's little side project. In 5.9 release notes it's "a little friendlier to use". Not as friendly as sudo, but ok, thanks, I guess?

I agree that it's a trap to think that working in tech makes us inherently smarter or more capable. But, I think our particular perspectives and biases are valuable to understanding the world outside of tech, if only because what we do has a significant influence on so many peoples experiences of the world.

Consider: Trump's campaign relying so heavily on social media; social media as a recruiting and organizational tools for extremist organizations; the issue of fake news sites; the role tech plays in enabling/accelerating globalization; tech as integral to global surveillance apparatuses.

> We are just as ignorant and naive as the next set of folks down the line.

Sure, averaged out over the variety of ways a person can be ignorant and naive (emotionally, financially, politically, etc). But nonetheless I think it would behoove us to stay engaged and reflective about our role in the world beyond tech, rather than saying "Nope, nothing for us to discuss, just keep laying the bricks".
I only use a VPN for:

You're right in that the RasPi does the outbound connectivity and exposes a rpc stream that the C64 can interact with more easily than JSON, but thats all.
The interactivity is driven by the C64, and honestly 99% of the effort went into the C64 6502 assembly code, not the NodeJS proxy.
I am still angry that ExpressJS got all f-ed up. It was good but it is essentially dead. There seems to be no major replacement for that. I almost wonder if IBM fucked that up intentionally.

Here's the thing though, Trump didn't get appreciably more voter turnout than Mitt Romney. Hillary on the other hand, got a lot less Democratic voters to turn out than Obama did.

We don't know how much damage Comey's actions in particular did to Hillary's candidacy but there is no doubt that the email scandal damaged her prospects tremendously.

> There was a time when democrats represented the blue collar working class -- who have watched helplessly as their jobs and security has been outsourced to china and Mexico. Now it's Trump who represents their values and clearly they're not alone.

Trump clearly tapped into that sentiment, particularly on trade deals. However, the Republican party has largely pushed policies that increase income inequality and hurt blue collar workers for some time now. Republicans have consistently attempted to weaken unions that tended to benefit blue collar workers.

Republican voters don't tend to hold them to account for that because the GOP campaigns successfully on wedge social issues, conservative media still largely supports trickle down economics and said social issues. Fake media only reinforces the echo chamber there.

Unfortunately there isn't much honest discourse on what to do about the effects of globalization and automation on the blue collar workforce now and into the future. I suspect that the job-reducing effects will continue to be used as a weapon for grievance politics but effective policy solutions will be hard to come by.

Then you end up with huge code sizes, where calls like

jsr ScrollRaster(pc)

end up repeating the ScrollRaster code over and over and over again, basically leading to macro expansion. And depending on the processor, your code might end up being too large to fit into the instruction cache... and you just kissed instruction burst mode bye-bye. This is unlikely to be the case on modern 80x86 processors as they have staggering amounts of cache, but who knows what embedded platforms and targets people are targeting this very moment as I write this, and who knows how small the instruction and data caches might be on those.
Also, you can litter your test data with all the fancy emoji you can type in a modern OS these days, those are almost always instantly recognizable when correct versus incorrect and test a fun number of things given:

1) Most (but not all) emoji exist way out in the Astral Plane (a good stress test for UTF-8/UTF-16 handling and little/big endian issues)

2) Emoji can contain "exotic" sequences like Zero Width Joiners (this can be very important to avoid codepoint counting issues because a ZWJ sequence of codepoints is a very different emoji if the codepoints are incorrectly reversed or spliced)

3) Emoji can test your font display stack for inefficiencies in system font fallback (and support for modern typography in general)
Maybe those who are downvoting haven't been in the industry long enough?

I started in software development when I was 18. Fresh outta high school. I have never been unemployed for more than a couple of months between gigs. I don't have a degree in compsci, either.

What I do have is all self-learned compsci knowledge. Maybe not perfect knowledge, but anything I am missing I can look up and learn. I am always willing to learn - always.

That's really the key, too - to not be unwilling to learn. Too many fall in the trap of stagnation. But the compsci basics, as noted in the above post, are crucial and always relevant. I first got the inkling of some of them when as a kid I did translation from Fortran, Pascal and C to BASIC (where I started in the 1980s).

Today - to keep up my skills - I am continuously working and improving my knowledge of ML and ANN techniques, as that is what is becoming more in-demand.

> Krugman is one of a handful of economists who think trade protectionism is a good idea.

No, he's not. He has occasionally made the point that certain arguments against protectionism are misstated, but AFAICT consistently does so alongside saying that protectionism remains harmful, a time a minimum because it reduces efficiency and aggregate output. [0]

The prototype kilogram was made of platinum-iridium because they are very nonreactive and fairly hard, so once the prototype was made it would be unlikely to be accidentally modified.

If you tried to use water ice as a standard, you'd find that its mass was changing all the time as the ice sublimated away, or humidity condensed onto its surface. It would be impossible to make precise measurements.
FWIW you probably don't need a USB serial port, or a RS232 converter at all; you could just pick the TTL serial signals off the commodore port and plug them into the TTL serial port on the Raspberry Pi 23- or 40-pin expansion slot (pins 8, 9, and 10 are TX, ground, and RX.). Remove the tty on /dev/ttyAMA0 from the init config and you can use /dev/ttyAMA0 as your built-in Pi serial port.
> I'm also not sure what "silicon valley sentiment" has to do with wanting enforcement of the Hatch act either. The idea that rural white america is a victim and needs protecting is one of those being spread by the alt-right.

I would agree with that, but not for the reasons what the Neo-Nazis would say (seriously, "alt right" is nazis and skinheads).

Most small towns had one or 2 companies that propped them up. Vehicles, parts, steel, coal, mining. Good strong stable stuff. Making things, and knowing that the sweat of your brow made that. And they paid well. Real well. $25/hr, $30/hr.

And as we went to this "service economy", with many manufacturing jobs eliminated by companies closing, automating, or going elsewhere, it left crappy jobs for these workers. Crappy means working for $8.25/hr, or $10 if you're lucky. And no benefits. No 401k. No insurance.

And yeah, Trump has ignited the neo-nazis. But in the end, what matters more: "some democrat love-relationship with LGBT, environmental stuffs, SJWs, or whatever" -or- "food on your plate, and a place to live in with your family"?

Because what Trump said is he's going to bring back those jobs. Hope, that these people can get back on their feet. But, well, that won't happen. Too bad it will take 4 years to find out.
Agreed. Forget usage leaks, Docker for Mac doesn't even work on my system, and five days later after reporting it, nobody cares. It used to work, many versions ago, but they've somehow broken it entirely between redesigning the UI 2-3 times and switching from VirtualBox (which worked) to OSX Virtualization (which so far doesn't). See https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/984

In addition, they don't seem to care that the whole thing is useless in China - https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/28791 - also after emailing, no response.

I have contributed to Docker since very early days but am frankly not using it now because the project has for all intents and purposes entered a toxic-to-the-community stage where hype and marketing exceed capacity to resolve issues, total fails are occurring for me on all platforms, and AFAIK nobody in their over-funded San Franciscan office bubble seems to care. It's a typically arrogant startup: not listening to users, heading for a fall.

It's like they've decided to re-invent downloads (badly), re-invent cross-platform hypervisors (badly), re-invent orchestration (badly), re-invent storage (badly) and roll it all up in branded glue. I can't help but wonder if an approach with broader applicability and longevity would segregate the OS (anything container or VM-like at any layer, from Erlang to BSD jails to diskless clusters), and environment paradigm (container-based, paravirtualization-based, bare metal) from the workload and truly enable infrastructure agnoticism by removing the dependency on a single shifting-sands component, and allowing people to A/B test identical workloads on disparate paradigm infrastructures. I tried a few years ago, it worked: http://stani.sh/walter/cims
Actually, they are so baked into economics that they are overlooked. Sismondi in his development of the business cycle theory, now a fundamental feature of economic theory and thus political theory, cited Polybius frequently. The point is that there are cycles of societal organization that can be demonstrated fairly unambiguously.

If you're interested in playing with the ESP8266, I would really recommend the D1 mini, by Wemos. It's an ESP8266 breakout, with a 5v regulator, a USB programmer, and a micro-USB port built in (in a very small package). They also make 'shields' that will plug directly into the headers, with a variety of functionality (including the sensor used in this build).

You have to have stack and frame setup if the code is to be ABI / target platform's calling convention compliant. Which compiler are you referring to, because GCC won't remove it, as far as I could tell looking at the generated assembler code?

You could purposely tell GCC to omit the frame pointer -fomit-frame-pointer, but then you just made the code extremely difficult to debug (and stack setup code will still be generated, as the compiler can't generate useful / functional code without it), so that's no solution either.
I would probably get some blank stares and get asked why I sent two random files and not a .docx...
Of course they get hacked. That's part of the big evil plan. Eventually in a couple years, after ISPs have shown their incompetence, the call will go out for this data to be stored at a secure government location.

Technically speaking, a cyclotron is just a type of particle accelerator. In medicine I suppose it can imply something more specific (PET imaging but also proton therapy).
I've met them in person a few times while working for a magazine that documented solutions in resource-constrained (not necessarily poor) environments.

IIRC, many of these projects came from actual farmers, not design students.

There's a related project, the Greenhorns [0] working to recruit new, young farmers and support them as they get going - part of that is cutting equipment and labor costs. I chatted a couple of farmers who were using the produce washers built from old washing machines.

Is it a solution for large-scale industrial farming? No. But from hobby farmers up to ones doing a 50-100 share CSA model, it makes a lot of sense and reduces barriers to entry.

Perl's substitution and translation facilities work pretty much the same way as sed, if you understand sed you can just drop those operations into Perl. For example, sed -i 's/old/new/' will do an in-place replacement of all strings 'old' with the string 'new'.

I find that you do escaping a little differently with sed though. For example you need to escape +'s for them to have their normal "one or more matches" semantics. Might just be an abnormality of my environment (Cygwin).

Quantcast moved off Hadoop in favor of a home-rolled solution (QFS) because of Hadoop wasn't scaling well to our needs (40PB+ data processed/day).

This release of QFS (https://github.com/quantcast/qfs) includes support for S3, among other improvements.
Also in the old days tools like sed and awk had more arbitrary limitations. E.g., line length was limited to something (reasonable) like 8192 bytes but input data I was processing was not reasonable.
