Mr..Mrs. Cookie! I love Ice.... In my drinks but not for Bitbucket.

Bitbucket has released some pretty major stuff in just the last 6 months or so. Built in Pipelines are an example. We've got some other stuff coming soon and there is always more in the pipeline after that.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11759733

Bitbucket added support for large files and went a step beyond GitHub and Gitlab by adding file chunking to speed things up in a big way. Bitbucket added file previews to help those working with large files like gaming devs. Smart mirroring to helps remote devs work faster. I could go on but I don't want to spam this thread with a feature list.

There's a nice little post here with some things. https://blog.bitbucket.org/page/2/

Do you use Trello instead of JIRA? If so, awesome! It is a great product. We love it so much we spent around a full year of revenue to acquire them so rest assured that big of a bet isn't so we can just convert it into a lead gen tool. We believe Trello can be much bigger that than. (Alas, I can't comment on that right now as it is in deal closure period)

If you don't use JIRA LMK what you use and what you like better. I'm always up for listening to what we are doing well and can do better.

Caveat- if you can't tell I work on BB and JIRA. If you are in SF, I'll buy you a beer & a cookie for the answers, if not I'll just keep following this thread.
Widest Real-Time Views of Vast Regions of Sun
I was under the impression a NSL could not force the recipient to do work to comply. For example, they could hand over information they currently have, but they cannot insert a backdoor/vulnerability to start collecting data they previously didn't.
Rather than the film they developed, why not just let AI handle removing fingerprints in the photo apps? We have "red eye" filters, why not fingerprint sensing and blurring filters?
Yea I'm not left-leaning by any means, but I don't care if it's pro-anything. It's a discussion and the points of the article aren't delusional. Discussion on if the analysis is right is something I thought was pretty common on HN.

Why is this flagged but posts about how automation will ruin everything and we need a UBI aren't? It's the same topic. Same discussion but from different perspectives.
> Consumers can say no, and if they had better financial education and/or financial prospects, maybe they would.

I think that is blaming the victim. As the article says, you have repair people describing the terms of the loan to people. If they don't understand what they're selling (and I'm sure they don't) then how can you expect the average person to? Not to mention the pressure selling that is probably being used on targeted groups (I'm looking at the elderly, minorities and groups that are generally less financially sophisticated).

Most people generally aren't in a position to "vote with their wallet". This is because most people are leveraged to their eyeballs with rents. This is a problem with Wall Street that trickles down, not a problem with the consumer that worked it's way up.

> many consumers took on home loans they had no intention of ever making good on

I disagree with this as well. People generally are not scam artist. On the contrary, most people like paying off their debts. Were people probably overly confident in their ability to repay, sure. Saying that people intended to default however, is not true.

---

Wall Street (and it's derivatives... I'm looking at you, ad funded Silicon Valley) is full of fraud. The fraud stems from the fact that the only people who can realistically perform checks and balances on this group(s) are the groups themselves. You may be able to blame the consumer when they have full and clear knowledge of how the system works, but that's not the case. Wall Street is full of so many obscurities and 40k ft descriptions that the average consumer really has no chance.

A good example of how the average person thinks financially... how many homeowners do you know that consider their home an "investment". Probably most, if not all.
I assume USDS could be stripped away though, as its under the Executive Office of the President.

Given that crates.io has no namespaces, this is kinda sorta how this already works, I think. Or at least, I don't understand the distinction.

Sync Couchbase Documents Between Mobile Devices with NativeScript and Angular
I've been working in open office environments for the last 5+ years, also at one of AmaFaceGooSoft. I find it's a non-issue, it doesn't bother me or others, I can't recall a time in the last 1-2 years when someone complained about it. Saying that o.o. is not effective is a bit fishy given how successful some of the companies employing it are.

I remember 10+ years ago at my first job we had a nice office building (it was an architectural CAD software company, so their offices were pretty okay). It was 4-6 people per room. In retrospect I wouldn't want that layout again, it kills XFN cooperation, eg. you have to go to another room and potentially knock just to talk to the UX or PM guy.

I prefer o.o. because it's better for fast moving, constantly changing teams building product; everybody's on the same "floor", working on the same product.
Just worked for me. Maybe because I'm blocking javascript.
From the FAQ:

What about sites that don't have workarounds? The workaround for WSJ no longer works.
It has been a long time since I was in Singapore, but looking back it isn't obvious why it would be bad for cycling. Obviously one wouldn't use the elevated expressways, but there are lots of other streets of varying sizes with varying amounts of traffic (like Tokyo). Is there a law against taking the lane? Perhaps there just isn't a culture of cycling, so one would be the only one on the road? Just curious...
I don't really grasp how people who have only ever felt sad and have not experienced clinical depression are so quick to assume that only the former exists. Like, if you'd only ever had normal headaches and met someone with cluster headaches, would you just insist to them that their head just hurts and they need to deal with it?

Thanks for looking! Yeah, I managed to typo the HN example - yes, my existing templates contain type="text/template", and I think that's how I filed the bug. It's possible for me to inject those templates with a variable instead of including them directly in the template, although that's a bit more invasive of a change than what I was doing before.
Pretty. Damned. Clever. ...And, scary too.

> some people, say users of a corporate CMS maybe, simply do not have access to the CSS for the page they are designing.

Agreed, but that's an edge case caused by mismanagement. People who need to style things should be able to edit styles.

> You may well want them to have some similarity, even on an infrastructure level that is invisible to the user, like consistently only having margins on the top or the bottom. That kind of thing can be provided by the design system out of the box

Sure, but you can make consistent margins on your boxes with a SCSS mixin. It's the same difficulty to set up than moving your site to bootstrap, and much less difficult to maintain.

I have never used MongoDB so I admit I'm talking blind here, but can someone explain how/why a piece of highly popular software gets to version 2.6 allowing unsecured remote connections by default? Further to that is that type of thinking you want in the development process of something as critical as a database engine? It just seems amazing to me that it got so far before the community in general pushed back that this was really bad design? Hopefully someone with MongoDB history can explain if this was a long term sticking point, etc. Thanks.

Yes. And to a large extent, it is not noteworthy enough to publish about without a novel event or perspective.

I didn't say we "shouldn't care about the troubles of an admin." I'm specifically scoping around my disagreement with Polygon over what's noteworthy. This article falls into the category defined by the old saying "news is only there to fill up the space between the ads."

We can care about the troubles of an admin on an interpersonal (or any other) level, just like we can care about anyone with an unpleasant job. That's largely a different topic.
There is a current service - builtwith.com - that does a nice job of productizing this type of research - eg:

Yeah. But then you like your colleagues. You don't have stress and you don't have a management layer stressing you
Actually, engineering is all about trade offs. Good engineering is to understand the trade you are making, and be consistent with it, and playing to its strengths.

For example, Linus Torvalds is an excellent engineer. So in the Linux kernel, he understood the trade off between modularity and simplicity/performance. That's why he did not choose microkernel architecture. He also understood that device drivers often require weird changes due to hardware evolution, that's why he decided against having too many abstraction layers in drivers (which would be better according to DRY rule).

Similarly, in Git, he decided not to use delta format to store changes. This takes more disk space (which is cheap today), but gives improved performance. Again, he understood the trade off, and concluded that performance is more valuable than disk space saved.
MongoDB was hardly alone -- almost all of these projects favored getting people started quickly, and avoiding anything that slowed them for even a moment. And we've seen it in project after project that it absolutely helps uptake, and if your project requires an hour of analysis and configuration before being usable, even if this saves tens of thousands of hours in the future, it puts it at a dramatic disadvantage.

Finding Bugs in TensorFlow with LibFuzzer

Why would someone still use v2.6? There isn't much trouble to upgrade.
Does that really make any difference? The original calculation was just an average amount per person. It already accounts for the fact that multiple people are paying into the public coffers.

A exception to that is if the location has a meaningful number of businesses held by non-residents. But even then, the businesses are not operating as a charity, and the tax they pay locally is going to come from the local customers.

If you dig deep enough in specific cases, I'm sure you can find exceptions to all of this, where neither the owners or the customers are within the local population. But, the original claim was just an estimated average anyway, including people like children who are unlikely to be paying tax at all in the window of their childhood.

Finding the balance is one of the most difficult things in software. On the one hand there's YAGNI (You ain't gonna need it) which you described, and on the other end are "hacky" prototypes that take the most direct approach but often ignore edge cases and are hard to build upon.
Regarding your first point, I agree that it doesn't constitute a justification for "this is the best way" so much as justification for "this is worth trying".

When you say

> It proves little since only the first visual layer (there are 6 visual cortex layers) does convolution-esque things.

I admit I'm not clear on the roles of the various layers of visual cortex. But I should note that there are several convolution-like steps which in an artificial network would be implemented with separate layers: center-surround detection (happens to occur before V1, but that's not really a problem for what I'm saying- it's a distraction that I skipped past for concision's sake) feeds into the convolution-like operations of oriented-edge detection, corner detection, etc. It's not like our visual system in toto just does one convolution-like step.

My second point must have been expressed poorly, because I have apparently completely failed to convey its meaning. It is meant to justify the particular choice of ordering convolutions before fully-connected layers. If you have already chosen to include both types, my point is that it makes sense to put those convolutions before the fully-connected layers.
Why do we need this? We've already had Frege (https://github.com/Frege/frege) filling this role for roughly three years now. Seems to me the DRY principal doesn't just apply to personal projects but to public works as well.
I have a few hundred hours in E:D, but haven't played in the last few months. It's an amazing flight sim (I do have a full HOTAS setup) and runs like an absolute dream in VR, but the missions system and MMO aspects are very lacking.

In other words, it's an amazing galaxy that still somehow feels empty after awhile. Even if they never improved multiplayer with their instancing system, I think single player could be saved with more curated/hand-written content in the core star systems. Like, an actual narrative of missions that adds some life to a few select planets and factions.

I think Frontier did an amazing job with the flight model and environmental details (sound design is especially amazing in ways both subtle and obvious). But the actual gameplay feels about 80% complete. Unfortunately, this is true for every one of the updates/expansions as well, so I'm not sure I can ever expect that to change.

It's an amazing game that I would not recommend to others. Very strange.

That sounds incredibly aggravating, if I have to work in a library, why do I have to work in your library an awful commute away, instead of my nice suburban public library around the block?

"We're doing this to increase collaboration, although we don't allow talking" So watch my bee style interpretive dance of how to reverse a linked list. ...

If you forbid working remotely, then force your employees to centrally work remotely, then you're doing it all wrong and capturing all the disadvantages while capturing none of the advantages.

Also if you junked the special purpose offices and break rooms and phone rooms and lactation rooms and meeting rooms you'd have plenty of space for individual private offices. I've seen this happen multiple times, the team meeting room gradually converts into the team office complete with closed door to get away from noise.

It would be really cool to have this information for the coffee shops around town, similar to how Google tracks how busy a place is. IIRC, there was a Microsoft Research project like this once that distributed the audio collection over the microphones from smartphones present in a given place.

I wish More had "Courage" to say 'we don't support IE8'
If your work has to support "enterprise" clients, you'll find no shortage of companies still living in the smoldering compatibility crater where tens of thousands of old desktops met their demise. The coal-fired machines themselves have generally been retired by the forcing function of Microsoft's EOL policy for XP. So one might think this means the end of the scourge of IE8 and friends. Sadly, one would be wrong.

These same large enterprises that clung to XP to wring every last drop out of those rickety HP desktops with 1.5 GB of RAM are now zealous implementers of Enterprise Managed IE. Typically there will be some old inventory system, or accounting adapter, or ERP plugin, or procurement system, that the company considers mission critical despite its decrepitude. That system itself is probably built with Microsoft's old development tools, and uses IE-flavored HTML, JScript, and ActiveX. Nobody knows how the system works anymore, its creators all died 75 years ago, and all documentation was lost in the great molasses flood.

Rather than spend the time and money to rewrite these magic old black boxes, IT managers configure the entire company so that IE11 actually acts like IE8 (or, hell, sometimes even IE7), in a browser "compatibility mode", enabling their old legacy apps to run, mostly. These downgraded modes are mostly, but not exactly, like the versions they mimic. In effect, they are new, separate, subtly different browser compatibility targets for developers. IE8 itself at least has the advantage of a decade of the collective wisdom of millions applied to understanding its limitations. Ersatz IE via compatibility mode can be worse than the real thing, rife with ungoogleable issues that force developers to engage in primary research like it's the bad old days again.

The kicker is that their end users all think they're "finally on IE11", and IT support often doesn't understand the subtleties of the EMIE situation. You'll hear "we're on IE11 now, so why does your app still look terrible and have strange JavaScript errors?". Allowing an exception so a specific application can run in native IE11 mode — if even possible — is often rejected as a "security risk". And why might it not even be possible? Some of these enterprises will run "vendor apps" inside a — yes — frame served by their terrible intranet system. The outer frameset document itself will be locked into downgraded compatibility mode, forcing the sites it contains to inherit that mode, and even do inexplicable and nearly undocumented things like silently replace the doctype of the framed application's pages.

Or so I've heard.

Author here.

I won't get into whether or not it's fair to call call "developers" "engineers", but I do make the distinction in the first paragraph that the article refers to software engineers. In addition, velocity, bug count, and lines of code are all software terms. I can't imagine anyone thinking this is referring to any other type of engineering.
Not quite sure. I suppose it's an honor system until they find out otherwise. Lying on an insurance application is an incredibly effective way to lose your coverage completely.

Your coverage is essentially $X higher until you sign the waiver saying "I affirm that my spouse has no other coverage options from another employer". That's how you're obligated to the policy.

HIPAA also doesn't prevent an employer from finding out if your spouse has insurance options elsewhere.
Could you elaborate on that? I've used Foundation before, but never got to use Bootstrap, but the latter seems to be more popular so I considered using it for a future project.
Thank you, dang!
