Regarding Sweden and WW II: If Sweden shouldn't have been a "lapdog" -- which side of the war should it have joined? With Norway or with Finland? Not a simple choice, neither now nor at the time.

And regarding USA today:

Check the democratic peace theory -- democracies don't fight wars with each others. (Not even USA. :-) ) So it is arguably in the Swedish interest to help all democracies be as strong and informed as ever possible.

That said, I doubt the reason Sweden is such a handmaid to US interests was so philosophical, of course. Every country do realpolitik and lies shamelessly about it. We don't know what the US paid (hopefully not just bribes to Swedish politicians, old hatt/mössa style... :-) ).

Edit: These comments really jumps up/down in votes. :-)
This is exactly the example I give when I try to explain to someone that managing through personal responsibility as opposed to team and organizational responsibility will grind your company productivity to a crawl.
That explanation is ridiculous. If that were the reason they would just have you dig 6 foot ditch. Implementing RB trees is not "boring and important work" either, if you're implementing them in your day job (for 99.99% of programmers), you are grossly incompetent because you don't understand how to use libraries.

I think that's a great idea. Those systems are super resilient and just keep trucking.
Centralizing power insures that all are dominated by the most brutal. When power is decentralized, abuses are quarantined.
To be fair, the two-pizza team stuff is generally speaking quite a good guideline.

If you have more than 5-10 people using each of your task boards, the problems may be more than any productivity tools can really fix.
Trello was ridiculously cheap. I think you're totally out of luck if you expect anybody to make a clone that's cheaper.
There's a halo effect here. If Atlassian can drive powerful integrations with its current products then it can increase the value proposition for those products among Trello customers, driving sales for its own products. Not that there was anything to prevent them from making those integrations before, but now they can go to Trello customers directly and ask them, "hey did you know you can create a Confluence meeting notes document, create a bunch of action items during the meeting, turn them all into Trello cards with the click of a button, and see the real time status of all of them straight from the Confluence document?"
People don't want to admit that you can be pretty bad at CS and still get by. This isn't unique to CS. There are plenty of people slipping through the cracks in all fields and disciplines.

It's especially easy to do in this field, because there can be a strong disconnect between the business side and the tech side. Most everyone on here can name at least one person they've worked with that created more work than they completed. It would have literally made better economic sense to have them watch movies all day at work rather than mangle the code base.
Because switching from react to angular requires knowledge of RB trees. /s

I'm pretty sure that's what they did, except they probably did something like trawl external 3rd party databases in order to find your email address.

It's a huge leap to go from "definitely yes" to "I can only think". Although I don't approve of it, leaking your email account -> name infromation is very easy to inadvertently do, and I am sure that there's a huge wall between recruiting and Google PII.

> This is not particularly novel. There are already integrated HMOs, like Kaiser Permanente and Group Health Cooperative, that function in a similar way

Integrated practice is distinct from HMOs, though they might appear to be similar. Kaiser us an integrated practice and also provides and manages an HMO, but not all Kaiser patients belong to the HMO

> they have integrated systems so physicians are not spending time dealing with claims--and besides, the physicians do all their work for this one health plan, so there's no web of insurance companies.

Not exactly. Kaiser physicians still have to do all the work of coding and billing, except for them, the billing is all reconciled by a single entity and managed internally.

That's different from direct care, in which the billing step literally does not happen, because the patient self-pays, usual in-person.

>It will easily be interegrated into their existing stack and it complements their products very well.

Will it? i use both Bitbucket and Jira at work, and i'm constantly finding myself wondering how two products from the same org can work so poorly together. They use their products to market their other products, but as far as actually integrating things into a seamless experience it doesn't seem like that's atlassian's strength.

In many ways that will be a good thing though, trello will likely remain trello instead of becoming something else to fit atlassian's ecosystem.

> People could do great things just with punch cards, yet somehow technology kept marching on.

That's not the situation I've described - punch cards disqualify.

The situation I mean is where developers insist on writing software on version X, which doesn't compile on X-1 and is buggy on version X (and might not compile again on X+1). For a concrete example, new C++ features that aren't correctly implemented and lead to harder to read code and worse error messages when applied to day-to-day problems (which these features were never meant for).
Awesome, go Rob! (Historically cinematography in animation tended to be called simply "layout")
I think it is more something like :

1. Write really popular blog.

2. Create Stack overflow and make it the goto for developers.

3. Create todo list

etc..

The brand was there before they even started the todo list. All it took was a blog post "We are going to create a todo list now" and it was pretty much set.
I get what you're saying, but sometimes interview questions are too far removed from the position.
JIRA is awful, although admittedly we were a small team when we were using it for a project, which apparently makes it not the best fit. But I really like the other Atlassian products we use. HipChat works well, it's not quite as polished as Slack, but it does the job and it's been a lot more stable the last few months than it once was. Bitbucket is excellent. We moved from Github to Bitbucket a few years ago and never looked back.

I totally agree. Trello is not a competitor to JIRA.

Don't get me wrong – I like them both. When I have to plan out personal projects, Trello is great. During the day, we use JIRA. The use cases are different, and the products are both suitable. I'm madly bemused that people look at the very, very surface layer of the UI (oh look, it has cards in columns!) and assume the products are the same.
> I was expecting some details...

Pretty sure I mentioned those in my initial complaint.

OK, is "the only search engine that matters" too vague? How about "the only app store that makes money"?

If you just want to build some software, then fine: you don't have to deal with Apple or Google if you don't want to. If you want to be successful and make money though? You're going to have to deal with one of them whether you like it or not.

At the very least, you need Google to search and you need Google to help people find your product. Good luck getting customers if Google removes your pages from their results.
I use it, although I admit not religiously. Writing down my tasks I need to get done, then 'estimating' them in 25 minute chunks really helps me get my brain around the concept of time, just how little of it I have in a workday, and just how fast it passes, which is the real issue for me.

Also, there's nothing wrong with doing 2 or 3 in a row, if you feel like it.
We tested it out at my company, and for the most part, it worked pretty good. Very Trello-like, and overall just a simple / easy to use Kanban board. Though, we did have problems 'viewing' the details of a card. Depending on how much data was in the details, it could take around 5-8 seconds to load.

Even if you had no emissions laws diesel would still have a large fuel consumption advantage. Diesel contains more energy per volume (139000 btu/gallon vs 124000 btu/gallon).

In addition the design of a diesel engine does not require a strict stoichiometric air/fuel ration. The result is at less than full throttle the gasoline engine the efficiency of a gasoline engine drops off faster than a diesel engine. In an ideal efficiency engine (no emissions) a gasoline engine at full throttle is more fuel efferent than a diesel engine, but when at less than full throttle - which is where most engine spend all their time) the diesel engine is more efficient. Note I skipped a dozen pages of disclaimers on the above claim: there are many ways in the real world to cheat the above.

> really cool feature

Arguable.
Of course. (In my opinion, /high software/ has more in common with mathematics, music, theatre-film-dance, and architecture than it has with engineering, and /low software/ is begining to resemble boiler room operations.)

But here, as example is my BSEE a.m.: http://eng.rpi.edu/academics

And to this day, we hear about "software engineers" and "software engineering".

Per my OP: "It seems either your conclusion is held to be incorrect, or, we reach the conclusion that software development is not engineering."

Possibly, one reason for the prevalent problems in the pedagogical & human resource fulfillment aspects of the field is due to a miscategorization of the field.
Nim is ML-inspired? How so?

Well,

To be more accurate, I've shown a snippet describing only 48 hours of "suspected attacks" that were performed to a
single server. The overall network contains 6 different honeypots around the world, which had been changing IP
numbers once every 7 days for the past 2 years.

Just to give a rough idea, the overall number of attacks, that specific server received in the month of December was
over 180,000 attacks, with about 60 distinct attack sources and about 8 different attack patterns. Analysing all the data
is far beyond my current time capability, simply because I'm dealing with other subjects.

It is true that you can't deduce any type of specific reasoning from the displayed information, as the data set is
very much limited. However, it shows that as much as Skype/Facebook/Whatsapp are popular, the popularity of VoIP
hacking and hijacking still proves this is a booming market with much financial gain.

Ignoring the old XServes:

Why would they?

OSX is positioned as a desktop, consumer platform. There's little reason to try to unseat cheaper Unix-like platforms. It's a market saturated with a gazillion performant alternatives.

The amount of support and sales required to make it a profitable line would remove Apple's focus from their core products (let's be honest, it's iOS, and to a lesser extent, OSX).
I wouldn't mind doing homework that is related to what they need me to do on the job. Make me code. On a real computer. With a compiler. With an internet connection. On real problems, even if they're conventionally hard to solve. I wouldn't mind rejection if I can't produce something satisfactory in a real life setting. Sometimes, they ask things that are too far removed from what they need from you, and I just don't get it.

It's not about learning algorithms. If you do the Stanford MOOC on algorithms on Coursera, which is one of the best MOOCs I've ever come across, you'll find that the instructor emphasizes understanding over rote learning and implementation details. If you understand what data structures and algorithms fit where, you can look them up and apply them as and when you need to. Memorizing every nook and cranny of CLRS so you can reproduce it quickly in an interview is a terrible waste of time, imho.
It's more like capitation, which was tried very early on with PPOs. Unfortunately, people don't like being told "no", so a lot of the discipline required to make it work was removed.

To be fair, this is library FFI code so this is actually for interfacing with C++ rather than 'native' Nim. Probably not something you'd encounter unless you're making a library wrapper.

And if you are doing that, worth mentioning too that Nim has a utility c2nim that automatically translates headers for FFI access.

The first line imports the C++ std::vector type and allows you to use it in Nim. To me that seems pretty good as a one liner to import a complex type from another language.

The second line is using a template to wrap the FFI call so you can use indexing operations and generic variables with the vector.

The `[]=` is describing how to write to std::vector in nim using indexing, eg; "myVec[5]=123"
