>what the hell happened in South Korean music this year

Sadly most k-pop topics are maintained by fans, editing without registration or much regard for notability and quality standards. Compare with 2016 in American music: everything in the American version is wikilinked, while half the artists mentioned on the Korean list wouldn't meet WP:BAND, much less have any particular release included in a "list of notable events and releases".

I got so excited when I read your comment. No offense, but there are so many basic intro videos like what you're asking for. However, after that... there's nothing.. I've been looking for something to take me to the next level, and when I read "in the first 30 minutes of the video include: AWS, Jupityr Notebooks, Neural Networks, Tmux" I squeeled with joy. If anyone knows other advanced tutorials on how to design, manage, and scale up their operation into some seriously organized, efficient, and automated machine learning.. I'm dying to find out.

Actually, it was Trump and his people who chose, overwhelmingly, to "invest in divisiveness".

To such an extent that the only ethical course of action is not to seek "influence" with such an administration, but -- as this Oracle exec has commendably done -- overt confrontation and resistance.

Looks like you can either set browser.tabs.remote.autostart=true to soft-enable it, or browser.tabs.remote.force-enable=true to force it on. The wiki[1] does not encourage the latter, but suggests the former may only be available for beta (and more frequent) builds.

I've probably put 15 very enjoyable hours into it and expect to put at least that many more into it again. IMO it does a near-perfect job of capturing the fun and challenge of a console Mario game. But the consensus seems to have quickly settled on "it's not worth $10" so... OK.
Well the Dash button has very little on-board storage, so it can't save much voice. It also has a very limited battery, so it turns itself off unless the button is pushed, and when the button is pushed it's only on long enough to send a command to Amazon (not long enough to send saved voice data).

People complaining about things they didn't take five seconds to understand is how FUD gets spread. Please don't contribute to this nonsense.

But that does mean that you have pretty good C programming skills! I think your comment reinforces my claim about pairing MOOC-depth ML with other skills.

(Edit: I'm not saying MOOC-depth derisively. Serious learners and autodidacts can go pretty deep with just MOOCs for guidance. I just mean prima facie, based on content of some of the lighter and more popular MOOCs like Andrew Ng's. Abu-Mostafa's on EdX is meatier.)

It’s the Same Old Song: Big Content Pushes for Expanded Copyright Powers
The interesting thing is how a lot of the focus in these comments has been around optimizing and A/B testing but feature flags have value in being able to continuously integrate and deploy without disrupting your production environment. For teams that want to merge and release regularly and have launches be easy I think LaunchDarkly is a big win.

With that said, you can do it yourself. For example here is my elixir/redis feature toggle library https://github.com/securingsincity/molasses and a feature toggle library in PHP that I've used and contribute to https://github.com/opensoft/rollout
How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication on Bank of America
Are you talking about strong typing or static typing? I've been using statically typed languages for 20 years (C++, Java, Objective-C) and I haven't gotten tired of it yet. Especially when working in a large code-base I didn't write, Python is rough. What's a "session"? Who knows, guess I'd better put `print type(session)` and figure out how to get that function executed.

Although, the thing that bothers me about Python (haven't used Ruby) is the fact that it is interpreted. It's really annoying to have to run my program to discover syntax errors and typos, when a compiled language would do that for me. With interpreted and dynamically typed languages, you have to have 100% test coverage, because you have no idea if your code is even syntactically valid until you run it, and of course if it isn't valid, then you throw an exception. (Hopefully that crashes the program, unless someone was brilliant enough to catch all exceptions and not print any error messages, then it looks like everything worked fine until you discover it didn't.) So every change is a potential for an exception, until you execute that line of code to make sure there wasn't a misspelled variable name or something.

So, yeah, I love the compiler. (I also love Python for scripty stuff.)

We hire applied ML/AI specialists. For me it's not just an understanding of mathematical concepts, but also being able to apply new ideas to new problems.

This depends quite a bit on critical thinking, a good fundamental ability to analyze a problem and understand its parameters, then manage the logical operations required to deliver the feature and solve the problem.

As for why I think it's on HN every day: I also like to think of an innovation pipeline happening something like this:

We're now in some sort of refinement cycle of innovation, where the current medium has been saturated on some level and there is a lot of push to mine value from the discoveries.

Why can't splitting just be creating a new non-local hidden variable by the very action of splitting, carrying the information for the split pair?

Edit: The page for the addon has a comment saying it does work with multiprocess, so I just forced it on. I'm on Linux, and I don't know of an about:config key to disable ctrl+q
Given you're strong in CS, study as much statistical theory as possible. That'd be my advice. You need to be a great programmer, but statistics is what's really in short supply.

I've shipped production software that - very carefully - links multiple versions of OpenSSL within the same process, so it's not a matter of some law of physics that I can't have two versions of OpenSSL on my system used by separate binaries. It's a design choice that this is how things are going to work. You don't need containers to pick a different design choice, yes, but neither do you need chroots - just careful use of shared library versioning and symbol versioning.

Containers won because containerization tools made all of this easy. Nobody wants to piece together shell scripts to do things in chroots any more than they want to piece together shell scripts to set LD_LIBRARY_PATHs. (And way more commercial software actually does the latter, because they want to side-step package management because they have no idea what libraries are on your system.)

> A true sommelier can identify different wines by taste alone

Well, for Chardonnay, if (1) it is dry (low sugar) and crisp (high acid) with delicate flavors, then it's from near Macon, France and maybe Pouilly Fuisse or even Montrachet. If (2) it is sweet (high sugar), flat (low acid), with the many flavors of, say, canned fruit cocktail, then it's from California!

Really, this was my summary opinion from wine investigations some years ago, but I haven't had any Chardonnay in years; maybe California does better now!
Ages ago, when I was still living with my parents, we had an indoor/outdoor cat that had a habit of going to various high shelves in the house and accidentally knocking things off them.

To curb this behavior, one of us would grab him off the shelf and literally throw him outside (onto grass, maybe 6' in the air), thinking that he would associate the unpleasantness of being thrown with his unwanted behavior.

He did. He changed his behavior such that he would jump up on said shelves and deliberately knock things off the shelf whenever he wanted to go outside.

He was a great cat other than that habit though. Hands down the most social (with humans) cat I have ever owned or met and my sample size on both counts is fairly large. He made everyone he met fall in love with him and had a territory of several square miles given the phone calls from people he encountered who took him in worrying that he wouldn't get home safely (he always did, though one incident when he was gone overnight prompted us to put the home phone number on his collar due to some concerned neighbor who took him in for the night). He also once jumped into a UPS truck that was delivering a package to my parents house - I happened to be looking out the window as the truck was leaving, watched it go halfway up the driveway, stop, and see the driver toss him out of the truck.

My parents have since stopped allowing their cats outside due to the murderous relationship between cats and local bird populations.
Yes, in 3rd world countries, Uber is an improvement of several orders of magnitude over traditional cabbies and cab companies. Even moreso for tourists. For this reason I think they'll hold steady in these regions even if there is a big change in their economics in the future.
I've done tons of work with them building out billing platforms for multiple clients. They are fairly good for many use cases and as long as you are keeping within standard use cases, they aren't bad. That said, if you are looking to do really simple subscriptions, Stripe's built-in subscription support is pretty good.

Did you have any specific questions about them?
That is not what I was told at parker ranch! Or possibly I misinterpreted what they said. Thank you for the clarification.

Trademark infringement goes like this: "Would a reasonable person believe GoogleBlade.com was an official Google property or service?"

If the answer is yes, you're infringing. It doesn't matter how great your service is, where your heart is, or whether other businesses use the name as well. What matters is that you're 1) using the Google name, 2) the Google logo, and 3) a Google inspired aesthetic which combine to create an ambiguous and potentially confusing customer experience.

No one visiting 9to5Google is going to confuse it for a Google property, same for AppleInsider. They are distinctly NOT official properties, and no reasonable person would thus be confused.

The primary concern is that a random visitor might have a horrible experience on your site, and confuse that experience for something provided by Google.
So now Firefox will become much slower due to per tab process overhead, just like Chrome, will pollute the task list with processes, and lose the enormous benefits of it's fantastic extension model, all for some intangible security benefits?

I've almost never had a security issue or crash on Firefox with a hundred tabs and maybe fifty extensions, it's still faster than chrome with 10 tabs.
In Mormon doctrine it's not a sin to come out and be honest about your experiences with sexuality and gender identity. It is sinful to engage in homosexual behavior. One does not risk Church discipline (including expulsion from BYU) merely by discussing his or her feelings/"being honest".

You also don't have to be a believing Mormon to go to BYU. Non-members do have to pay a different rate for tuition and you do have to have a valid ecclesiastical endorsement from a bishop and stake president and be willing to adhere to the Honor Code, but otherwise it shouldn't be a problem to admit that you no longer believe (and IMO it's much healthier for everyone if people are honest about this). Resignation from the Church is a different matter than lost belief.

Whether one continues to believe or not, he/she should be willing and able to see through the contractual commitment made to the university when his/her beliefs were different. Commitments are not worth anything if you can just say "my beliefs changed; ergo, I am exempt."

We all have to put up with things that we've agreed to and no longer feel are beneficial to us, at least until the term of the agreement expires. I'd say a college student experiencing this is a good opportunity for character development that will serve the student well after graduation.

Charging "diagnostic" fee is also a scam ;-).

The sad reality is there doesnt exist a reliable source of _real_ new replacement GPU chips. Almost every single chip from china is either a pull from dead laptop or old stock(1). Chinese counterfeit markings, clean them up and sell as new.

The absolute best case scenario is you get really new old stock and it will survive at least 2 years, but in reality it will most probably be a pull from recycled trash with week-month lifespan.

1- Nvidia chips were ALL factory defective (bad underfill between die and bga carrier), every single GPU at least up to FERMI has a limited life span dependent on thermal stress. Nvidia had to issue huge recall and restart manufacturing of ancient chips with fixed underfill formula - they only did a limited run for select partners (Dell, Apple) and those chips are pretty much _gone_ from the market.

This is how I've thought of it as well, why I've been hesitant to do much more so far, and why I'm polling a forum with lots of different maintainers rather than a single person at a single project already.

Because of my skills, I'm not going to stumble onto something by chance where I'm contributing upstream to scratch my own itch and then sticking around. I'm expecting I would need to spend time to find a project that seems like a good fit both ways, and become an active user intentionally where without my side agenda I'd be better off using a larger OSS project or a paid service.

I'm cool with putting that time in to help something grow and to help kindred spirits out. I don't want to put in that time just to be a source of annoyance or frustration to someone who's already done me and the world a solid by putting something cool out into the world.

Documentation is where it seemed to me like the best first step, and what people are saying here as well. As a followup, what's the general consensus on the least bothersome approach? Editing/prettifying existing documentation; appending to existing documentation (adding diagrams or examples); or creating "newbie docs" (how do I install this, how do I compile this on Windows, or aggregating a central FAQ from closed issues); or perhaps something else?

The blog author was insulted by (1) the person demanding work for free after he turned down doing it for money, and (2) on the demanders schedule.

It's any professionals right to say, "No, thanks." For whatever reason. There's nothing unprofessional about so doing. Your assertion that just because you offered money someone is obligated to take it -- or do anything for that matter -- is the aforementioned entitlement.

Perhaps he/she was on vacation. Or wanted to see his / her kids. Or wasn't in the mood. Or had other clients that were paying less but were in a long term relationship that is more important/valuable than a one day consulting fee. Or didn't feel like dealing with the accounting hassle of taking a one day fee. Or had an employer that isn't a fan of employees moonlighting. Or just wanted to stare at paint on the ceiling. Any of the above are perfectly good reasons to say no thanks, and that's the end of the obligation, full stop.
