I averted all of the oft-complained about issues of Windows 10 by installing the Win. 10 LTSB (N) version.

Some perks to note of:

* No bloatware

* Updates every 60-90 days (as opposed to the oppressive every 5-7 days); choice to reboot auto or not.

* No Windows Media Player

* No MSFT Edge; Only Windows Explorer classic

* Classic calculator

* No Windows App Store

* No background apps

* No upselling shenanigans annoying my experience

* No MSFT cloud

* Cortana is removed completely not disabled

* Mission-critical updates only...avoids needless flair in favor of stable security.

All in all, I would highly recommend it.
Triggr Health | Full Stack and Data Engineers | Chicago | RELOCATION

Triggr Health is the first predictive system of care for addiction recovery. We are a world-class team of engineers, designers, doctors, and researchers from institutions such as Stanford, Google, UCSF School of Medicine, UPENN, Northwestern, and Rackspace. We are currently working with many of the top treatment providers, government initiatives, health systems, and academic research programs in the world. Our core platform utilizes phone sensors and phone data to predict the state of an individual’s recovery in real-time, enabling the right care to be delivered proactively the moment it is needed. Imagine if you could predict risk factors that lead to regressive behavior, such as when someone is angry; when they are experiencing a craving; when they are not sleeping well; or when they are falling off their continuing care plan. Now imagine doing all of this without self-reported data.

We are building apps on both Android and iOS, a customer-facing web application, a robust web services API, machine learning-driven analytics, and large-scale data processing. Our tech stack includes NodeJS and MongoDB on the backend, Backbone on the frontend, React Native, Swift and Java for mobile, and Python 3 for machine learning.

We are always looking for talented people to join our team. If you could be described as one of the following, please email talent@triggrhealth.com!

How to Index Attachments and Files to Elasticsearch
Did you test that 1.5 second claim yourself? I literally just wrote a HelloWorld and ran it on my MacBook, the total time for the whole program was <0.2 seconds.
With a small number of categories a full summary of the data easily fits into text. It might still be desirable to report a summary statistic, but omitting the totals for 2 or 3 categories and reporting a summary statistic is pretty sloppy.
I like Medjool dates.
And how many Karpathy is there working for non-Google? Mariah Carrey made $140 million dollar record deal with Sony Music, there's boat load of money to make in the music scene!

The author of that WSJ piece is Epstein himself, who also authored the book under review.

Your statement at the end basically says, we have classified sources saying Snowden was a Russian/Chinese spy, and we have "feel-gooders" like Oliver Stone saying otherwise, so who do we trust?

The submitted article is by a reporter more neutral and level-headed than either Epstein or Stone, and he basically concludes: there is nothing at present but wild conjecture supporting the "Snowden was a spy" theory. So I think that may be the answer to your implicit question.
> "MBP wins in disk speed and battery" doesn't match "there is no alternative in any price bracket"

Disk speed, battery, build quality, and screen resolution seem to be the big ones. There don't seem to be any alternatives with the same set of features. All of the machines brought up as an "alternative" are missing one or more of those which means they aren't really an alternative.

I do agree that you're also signing up for a set of compromises when you buy a MBP, but AFAIK there's not an "equivalent" machine elsewhere that I can find, which to me seems a bit strange.

I hate analogies, especially car ones, but for this situation it really does seem to fit. There are three big German car makers. BMW, Audi, and Mercedes each have "equivalent" sets of cars. You can pick and choose between them and while there are might be small features that one offers over the others there are definitely "alternatives".

With the MBP it feels like there's only one, and when looking for an alternative everyone's suggesting a Toyota Camry. Yes, it will get the job done but it's not really the same class of thing.

>I think there's a difference between what really motivated him to leak & what he's leaked out of self-preservation

Glenn Greenwald - https://twitter.com/ggreenwald/status/352213748917874688

I always come back to this Tweet when this subject comes up. Like the article suggests, it isn't a matter of if Snowden was compromised but when. I would like to think it was after he was stranded in Russia with no hope. That might explain his later actions but I don't think it can ever justify them. If even Greenwald thinks Snowden has "leaked out of self-preservation", I find it hard to support the narrative of a whistleblowing American hero who deserves a pardon.
No benchmark, and it really depends on the size of the package obviously, but generally transfers inside of AWS are ridiculously fast.

Zappa has an auto-keep warm features, so cold-boot is largely negated.

Also, this is a feature really designed for scientific computing, which generally happens asynchronously anyway, versus say something like web-app serving.

Really the big drawback here is that it sucks up available RAM, so you may still have to do some tweaking on a per-application basis.

Still, this feature was contributed out of a user's own necessity, so I'm certain that others will get use out of it too.
>CNN for sure did not cover these issues proportionately to their gravity.

This is a very reasonable statement, but ultimately does not encapsulate the rhetoric that has been levied against the media by Trump specifically, nor his more ardent supporters.

Not covering proportional to gravity is not:

Anything similar to lies, fabrications, false news, misconstruing the news, or presenting the topic with a completely false narrative.

While it does certainly affect the narrative, and while CNN gives far more weight to articles favoring the left, this does not hurt Trump in any way as far as his getting elected was concerned. At the very least, the song played by the left leaning MSM (and that is a VERY IMPORTANT distinction, as Fox News represents the right leaning MSM; their viewer numbers have them as a larger body than CNN--how would they not be the true MSM?) lulled many Clinton supporters into a false sense of security. The post-election meltdowns by people who claimed they did not vote directly as a result of this false security, while anecdotal, points directly at that narrative.

And even if you allow that CNN reports on left leaning issues in a positive light while decrying conservative viewpoints, and Fox reports on right leaning issues positively while pointing out the issues in progressive topics, one cannot use them as direct opposition to each other, as neither tends to focus both on the positives and negatives in an issue in a way that could be considered equal. Equal airtime doctrines have also caused a negative skew, but that is another topic altogether.
Cool to read.. though still somewhat disappointed that DLR languages were pretty much left to die, and the JavaScript DLR implementation stagnated.

In what sense? Politics usually brings out the worst in people, contrary to what the early proponents of democracy believed. Most people believe that their opponents are mean, greedy, and stupid, or at least fools who have been taken by clever propaganda.[1]

Disengagement reports show Waymo crushing the competition on every single metric
While I'm not one of the people you mention, I certainly hope it does! Difference in opinion, that encourages involvement and conversation, is one good way to find the best path(s) forward in just about anything.

I'm currently in a 9-month long Civic-based leadership class in my city, run by the local Chamber of Commerce. It's been a great experience with exposure to everyone that make the local government (and related organizaions) run, as well as growing community trusteeship.

As technology/business people, I'd encourage everyone to find something similar, that is local, and do it.
I'm curious to know what strategy has been developed out of this regarding delivery of spam through creation of snippets. In the original GitLab First Incident report it noted "spammers were hammering the database by creating snippets, making it unstable". So many easily accessible platforms are out there that this method of spamming could be used on that it seems like a necessity to evaluate current workflows and identify where checks/balances can be inserted that would prevent this from happening again. Short of removal of snippets, there must be some method of snippet grepping that would put a pause on suspicious snippets, preventing the bulk of submissions along the lines of what GitLab initially received.
Eight-year-old American girl 'killed in Yemen raid approved by Trump'
Forgive me if I exercise a brand new buzzword but this project might better be classified as an exercise in "computational journalism" ?

A fake news detector isn't going to do anything by itself to solve the problem. Fake news consumers are going to guzzle the junk regardless of warning tags, scores, or nutritional labeling.

In the hands of a skilled journalist/activist/thought-leader whose abilities are "augmented" by this tool, however, it could really be a powerful antidote.
I do something very similar but with GitHub and Teamcity.

Automating the upgrades (i.e. redeploys) in Rancher is pretty straight forward - their API is super easy to use. I ended up writing a simple tool in mostly Bash to handle it, and threw it in a Docker container to run on Teamcity.
We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13540819 and marked it off-topic.
I actually tried starting a company based on that, but when I went to talk to the cell phone providers, one of them candidly explained to them that SMS was their cash cow and that it was essentially free for them, and calls were very cheap related to what the person paid, so it makes no sense for them to enable people to use the credit for other stuff which might get them into trouble later - think lawsuits, regulations, and all the complications of becoming a payment provider.

Engineers often operate under the false belief that they can solve social problems with technology. And the systems they build rely on participants being rational actors that subscribe to a shared system of values. They end up devolving into censorship of opposing viewpoints.

In fact, I would go as far as saying that the internet, itself, was designed and built in the naive belief that humans would better themselves by instant access to knowledge. This past decade and a half has completely shattered our 1980s and '90s vision of the promise of the internet.

We have few means of combating propaganda that threatens our values, reclaiming our privacy, or maintaining our remaining sanity. When a shared objective reality no longer exists, we're all loons.

What worries me about the EO is how incompetent it was, and his running excuse that terrorists would just jump into planes to fly to the US if they heard about it first! That's nuts and it's the beggining of an excuse for him to do this over and over again, eroding the ability of Congress to vet his actions. "There's no time" does anyone actually believe that?

I am not blind to Trump's virtues. Economically he has a lot of good ideas. I agree that PC was going too far! But he's a lying son of a gun who's trying to screw us all.

What are you talking about? What guy, and what murder?
Very interesting. I will keep this in mind since we do have another 10,000 or so jobs that we'll need completed in the next while.

The pricing page isn't totally helpful. I'm not sure if I would fall under `Comparison $0.10` or `Data Collection $0.25/minute`... or if many of those prices apply to a single job.

Either way, I'll keep your product in mind.
We don't want a database of undocumented immigrant emails, but agreed we will figure out a way to create a web portal as well.
Yes, there are liberals with guns out there, just like there's people out there with their internal organs reversed (heart on the right, etc.). But by and large, there aren't very many; the vast majority of the gun owners are Republican voters. And they aren't going to offer any armed resistance to Trump or anyone else because they're generally pro-authoritarian.

I haven't heard of anyone on the left seriously discussing armed resistance to Trump. If they are, they sound rather delusional, just because of numbers. There simply aren't many politically active people on the left in this country who are also armed, or even believe in being armed. This sounds like a tiny number of radicals at best. This isn't like Central American nations in the past, or other parts of the world, where the leftists were actually violent and believed in using violent means to achieve social change. Gun control has been one of the big tenets of the "left" here for a very long time.

Note that I'm not supporting the right-wingers here (personally I was a fan of Bernie for the most part), I'm just pointing out the reality in this country. It's the right-wingers who make up the vast bulk of the gun-lovers and owners.

>that they believe that Showden operation was an espionage heist

Of course they say that. They have to. They're the ones that authorized (if not authorized, they very well knew about it) all the shit the NSA does. Yet to my knowledge there's no evidence for it. One cannot consciously call themselves American while also calling Snowden a traitor (Scotsman fallacy be damned). The egregious misdeeds he revealed far outweigh any laws he himself broke.

This is huge. I did my first internship at a company that was half animators making huge TV ads you have seen, and half web devs/designers that made interactive (web) apps.[0] Lottie is, without a doubt, solving a huge problem in the industry.

Previously, engineers were often stuck bolting animations and transients onto static PSDs, or designers fighting to communicate what they wanted an animation to be like. This completely get rids of the problem!

I can't wait to try this out. Now I just need to learn After Effects...
