What is not company time nowadays? For a salaried tech employee it's a pure tossup.

Just because you were physically at your workplace doesn't in my mind make it "company time", and the concept for a place like Tesla where people keep track if you do too little but certainly not the opposite seems completely inane.
How about just a phone call (or two, to break through “do not disturb”), or tapping on their shoulder to get their attention? That's what we do when we really need someone right now rather than when they come back up for air in the next hour or two.

That, plus simply being mindful of the meaning of “deep work” and people working in roles that need that kind of concentration.

I don't need an app for this.

It's about the fact that thirty years ago, for all intents and purposes, there was no such thing as "unit test frameworks" or "test driven development".

Even if your boss has manged to get to today without even hearing about these concepts, hopefully there are other people on the team that have. And those people will decide on a testing strategy for the project. If your boss understand the details of that decision or not is isn't that important. What's important is that he lets the best people in room make the decision. Now if your boss decides to override and ignore those people, then that can be a problem, but that is problem due to a lack of managerial and people skills, not a problem due to a lack of technical skills.

We all confronted Google with an abuse of power in a previous AMP HN thread[1] and Malte Ubl and Paul Bakaus from Google seem to follow our sentiments closely but didn't dare to reply in the previous thread. Instead they preferred to have a quiet and safe lunch with just one of us. Good to know.

Malte and Paul, what you are doing is a huge abuse of power with a random specced product and you are not listening to your users, especially those on Github. Many people made lists of drawbacks and the previous thread is full of many more. AMP is heavily flawed and beside the abuse of power, AMP is from a UI perspective an utter disaster: You wan't to improve the mobile user experience but steal so much screen real estate from am already limited mobile view, I made a quick mockup: http://imgur.com/a/VYVZ0 Just tell us, why does the bottom navbar on iOS stays now with AMP sites forever and does steal even more real estate? Who made this design decision and all the other random design decisions?

It would be great if Malte and Paul finally take the responsibility and comment to all the previous attacks here. I guess that Sundar has been informed about the dissatisfaction with AMP and it's now really time to give a statement. It seems that Google has already slightly deranked AMP sites in their SERPs which shows that even internally Malte and Paul are not fully backed up.

Erlang was the first functional language i really learned and i can definitely attest to the pains mainstream developers go through when switching the paradigm. In fact with Erlang you're jumping two paradigms at once - functional/immutable and actor model of concurrency.

Eventually it clicked and i think learning Erlang was single most impactful thing on my way to becoming "a better developer".

Throw away your best practices of procedural/oop world and unlearn your optimization tricks when diving into functional/immutable. It's a totally different way of thinking about problems.
A couple months ago I was looking for some courses that could cover the new tools available on linux to measure performance: in kernel and user space.

It has not come without a price though. Note the rabbid anti-semitism and general domestic issues including a considerable increase in rapes.

All factors considered, Israel does more than its share to help the situation. Or perhaps they should take out Assad and bring this misery to an end. Or would that even end it?Perhaps you've heard of the many many Syrians who have sought and received medical assistance in Israel. Plenty of print on that.
Despite other reasons it's probably also political. Sometimes in a high position it's actually better to not know stuff. Set up an employment contract that forces others to do illegal things in your favor but never ask what they do. When sh*t hits the fan you can exit fast, since you know you set up your guy to do bad things, and since you can access all the information that is and therefore can make smart decisions for yourself. But when the scheme gets caught on by the public your employer goes to jail, not you. Nobody ever asks for who set up the system in a way that traders feeled compelled to act dishonest.

So yes, they handed off the power to do their jobs right, but their goal was not to do their jobs right. Their goal was to make money as long as it's good and not go to jail when it's bad. And the power to do that they didn't hand of to anyone.

It's an extremely slimy debating tactic. Someone says they don't like a religion, you accuse them of not liking a race, the person correctly claims the that a religion is not a race, and then the other person fires back with "Well, you don't really mean that."

Since when is that an acceptable way to debate? Part of any decent discussion is that you actually have to let the person state their own position, and accept it. You can't just tell them they're lying about their own beliefs. You're then putting your own words into their mouth, and using that as a straw man.

That's true, but on Wikipedia they do.

Especially for cases like that - if someone has more 'sway' on Wikipedia than you, they can (and will often) just say something like "Thanks for the source - I'll verify and if it says what you think it says, I'll add it in to the article." Then do nothing, ever again. In fact, unreliable citations, or citations that don't actually say what the citer thinks they say, that can be easily checked online are far more acceptable on Wikipedia than citing a book.

Inertia like this leaves useless pages like "Oplomachi" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oplomachi) live way after they should have been merged, as well as leading to the deletion of useful pages/sections/references.

The major articles, which are more likely to get attention, tend to be less dysfunctional than niche interests. That said, there are of course far more articles relating to niche interests than there are major articles.
Lua is the easiest language to learn I ever saw. It has a fantastic json support with the cjson library (https://luarocks.org/modules/luarocks/lua-cjson). It's there by default on many firmwares. Do check the docs for nodemcu, for example: https://nodemcu.readthedocs.io/en/master/ (a firmware for the ESP microcontrollers)

Not to mention Lua itself can be used as a data / configuration language, their tables syntax is made especially for that. Normally when I work with Lua I don't feel the need to embed any other parsers for configuration, but cjson is there if you want.

The first AI-generated fashion feed to target Millennials
Hook has just rolled out what it is calling the first artificial intelligence generated fashion feed for consumers.

The app “covers over 100 top U.S. online shopping destinations most popular with Millennials including Nasty Gal, Zara, Shopbop, H&M, Asos, Pacsun, Farfetch, Bloomingdale’s, Macy’s, Saks Fifth Avenue, Barneys, etc.”

It is a a search engine that allows the shopper to key in exactly what she or he is looking for and be able to immediately browse through exact matches and similar styles at all different price points

The Hook Fashion Discovery is free and available at the App Store and on Google Play.

What the end of net neutrality means for you
The ones mentioned in the article seem to be embryonic stem cells.
I think the hate is directed at GIL because everbody else has figured out reasonably safe ways to thread and share data. Java doesn't have this problem, and I think all the other languages have a solution.

So what, maybe some C implementation of threads has problems, that doesnt mean people haven't figured out models that work.

Whats worse, the distrust of functional style programming means that, if threads are really doomed, python has no way of being a system level language, since the other option is using functional islands that signal or queue to each other (which is directly representable by hardware). In this case, python becomes little more than DSL relegated mostly to imperative programming for tiny scripts, not a system level language.

I for one hope and believe that won't happen, with options like PyPy, Twisted, and Jython. Ironically, the only way Python will survive is for it to become unpythonic, something that has already happened as the orginal maintainers of the language insist on their own pig-headed agendas that most don't care for. I think CPython will ultimately fail, and will be practically replaced by the community with something...less toxic.

Ditto. Have used LAMP, JEE, Rails, Grails, ASP.NET MVC, Meteor ande Express.js. ASP.NET MVC is _fine_ and has decent performance. ASP.NET on .NET Core blows pretty much everything else out of the water performance wise, but there's more to life than performance. ASP.NET Core being open-source and running fine on Linux and Mac helps, though.

I just had two phones, work issued and mine, after 6pm the work phone went on 'do not disturb' until 9am next day

Ive noticed that work issued phones aren't the perk they appear, its a social pressure of 'we know you have a phone, we gave it to you' combined with the expectation you'll answer.

I was a software engineer at that job, I wasn't on call and I was salaried for X hours.

I still have two phones noe even though I work for myself, one for work one for home, I did think about dual-sim but I like the separation of concerns.

I have used Airbnb a huge amount of time, and got my first (and only so far) last minute cancellation last year in January. When I say last minute cancellation, I'm kind of lying, it was actually an on-time cancellation. They cancelled right when I was supposed to check-in. (They sent me a message telling me they lost the keys, yeah sure.)

Airbnb only wanted to refund me at first, after a few back and forth and throwing the word "nightmare experience" in their face (I had just flew from France, was completely jetlagged) they finally ended up reimbursing me my hotel stay (it was a 2 or 3 nights stay IIRC).

We need to wake the fuck up in the EU and start aggressively building European-based competitors to US tech companies that actually respect user privacy. A good area to start would be in the data storage industry, and perhaps social media too. Obviously, non Silicon Valley based startups face certain challenges[1], but we should at least try. It would arguably benefit US consumers also, if they could choose products that are designed to compete on privacy, a good example being Switzerland-based ProtonMail[2] (ok, non-EU but still).

I wasn't aware of Privacy Shield before now, but after reading a little bit about it[3], it reads like something that only gives a fig leaf of protection to EU citizens.

People still think GUI is a real problem, this is why we keep using linux box with terminal emulators, and editors/IDE such as emacs working mostly only with text and keyboard.

And indeed, GUI lead to closed garden, non-computers such as iOS devices, which are basically NOT programmable by their users (contrarily to command line interfaces that are basically scriptable = programmable by their users by default).

There have been a few attempts at scritability of GUI, but this remained confidential and mostly experimental (Apple recently disolved the team working on Automation).

So yes, GUI is basically the real problem, just ask Alan Kay!

You advise to use an abondoned tech (Angular 1), that was full of unstable plugins and hard to use setups while it was active, instead of a simple to use view layer like React?

The api surface of Angular is way too big to invest in, compared to the alternatives, of which there are many. ReactJS is vastly more popular for a reason, even though it arrived at a time when Angular already had a big following and huge momentum.

If you have a super simple front-end with few variables you don't need a framework anyway. Vanilla JS is fine. But React+Redux is killer once it starts to grow into a big SPA.

An "agreement" made under duress is not actually an agreement, therefore not morally binding. A clause in your employment contract is only actually an agreement if:

1. Society defines having a job as an optional luxury.

2. The employer is willing to strike out that clause, and the candidate employee can reasonably know this.

3. Other employers are offering better terms.

Were any of those true in this case?
Even if it's not particularly easy to manufacture it would still be massively beneficial to a lot of generator designs. We already do some crazy stuff to make single metallic crystal turbine fins for jets, I could see something similarly exotic in manufacturing being useful for power plants even if it costs 10x-50x more than the traditional parts given what this material can enable.
Also from the earlier story "People who followed Obama got Trump" story, it looks like Twitter merged or transferred the POTUS account Alias to Trump after the inauguration which means that all previous emails that had access to Trump's account likely to also have been transferred.

I honestly wonder if there would be a way to look at Obama's old account or other accounts in a similar situation, I have a strong suspicion that it would not be such a different story.
