Control, no, respect, yes. Law enforcement has to listen to the courts, even though they are directed by their superiors. When the president makes an executive order, a court places a stay on it, and law enforcement officers respond, "I don't care, I'm carrying out the order because I answer to the president," then the executive branch has taken on the roles of both the legislative and judicial as well.

You are impressed by their technology success, I understand it, I do either. But respect!
I had a rather odd problem with Win10 and that is it hurt my eyes. I don't know whether they changed something with ClearType or for some other reason but after two days I reverted back to Win7.

Other than that, I really didn't like the UI. To change colors in menus you have to use a hack because the preselected list of colors is just dreadful, the start menu once again is all over the place and various other mishaps that give the impression that it's not a finished product. They try to build a unified OS for all devices when all I want is a simple desktop OS.

Higher gate capacitance of FETs is also a drawback. Often you need a bjt or even dedicated gate-driver IC to drive the gates quickly. The extra pole can also make negative feedback more complicated. And there's less component choice when you want more control in the ohmic region versus switching - for a non emitter/source follower circuit. Another issue is the higher gate voltages required - compared with bjts even using logic-level FETs.

The article would have been much better with a different title - "How to use FETs effectively and when to use them", not a binary oppositioning of "antique" versus "modern".
Your "resistance movement" is going to be incredibly embarrassed at some point in the future. I guarantee you will all end up coming to look like complete morons.
I'll try to compile some references on a page but I gave this talk last year for an Elixir conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HQfS8efVeg (It's not the best talk I've delivered on the topic but it's a start. I tried to cram too much into my timeslot.)

Robert Virding also has some great talks but I can't find the specific one where he discusses some of the lesser known compilation steps. At the end of the day, I learned the most from reading Erlang source code though. There's a lot to see in the Core Erlang compilation code: https://github.com/erlang/otp/tree/maint/lib/compiler/src

As to answer some questions elsewhere in this discussion on why BEAM code isn't targeted directly, it is poorly documented but you also lose out on a lot of these optimizations which happen at the Core Erlang stage. These are all things you'll have to reinvent.

There is debate on whether Core Erlang is a better target than Erlang but I'll skip that debate for now. Some languages, like Elixir target Erlang AST structures rather than Core Erlang while others (LFE) target Core Erlang.
The alternative is probably non-compete contracts (which are enforceable if paid) so that people don't immediately go from one company to its direct competitor.

Yes, I'll admit that in some extreme cases like that, Congress might be able to push back against Trump. But it has to be pretty ridiculous it seems (DeVos is an especially horrible pick).
A month or two. I'd wager 6 weeks.

The S-1 is for the roadshow to create the underwriters and syndicate. They want to study our reactions and other people's reactions to see how they can price the shares.

It is all about perception at this point. Share value number should go up.

But at the same time, for an OS company being trustworthy is part of their job.
The problem I have with Linux distributions in general is that applications are too infrequently updated. Of course, you can add extra repos to get these updated applications but then you end up with a horrible mix of base-system stuff plus 3rd-party stuff.

BSD sidesteps this problem, but introduces the one you mention.

It sounds like snaps will potentially solve both problems.
Back in the 70's, a friend of mine created a formula where the inputs were number of switches, number of dials, and number of meters and would output the price. It was remarkably close at predicting the price of most any stereo receiver/amplifier in the stereo store.

One standout anomaly was the Heathkit 250W amp, which just had an on/off switch and 2 meters.
I dunno, BTC seems a little too unstable as a good hedge, IMO.

To me, the real value is being able to make money on volatility, since you can buy and sell shares in this ETF far more easily than you can with BTC...

That said, I'm very curious how they plan to track it. What's the "gold standard" for the "value" of BTC, given its price can vary across exchanges? The difficulty of getting money in/out limits the opportunities for arbitrage, so this kind of thing can happen pretty easily. Are they going to track an average across exchanges or something?

EDIT:

Or I could just read the SEC filing. They're going to use their own index (which is an average based on the spot price of "Qualified Exchanges" they've identified):

Well, that doesn't sound shady at all!

How would you suggest that many settings be implemented in a GUI? It'd have to break them up into groups, and it appears that's exactly what VS Code is doing.
Two points ...

1. The political upheaval that brought Trump to the US presidency may soon depose Merkel.

2. Trump is an isolationist and picked isolationist advisers. Trump's base probably thinks that its a good idea for Trump not to aggressively defend liberalism and freedom throughout the world, e.g. quit the Middle East rather than reform Islam via carrot and stick.

I assume Travis saw his "Digg moment" coming from Lyft and this is purely damage control. I envision he said something like "Sorry Donald, our share is tanking, I can't stay visible with you, I have to leave the council, even if it costs me some insider information and state-driven business in the future", and then went off to write a memo with a spin to make Uber Look Great Again ;-)
158M DAU is not bad, but I would guess they are to some extent limited by the amount of iOS and Android devices in circulation? How are they going to get that number to 300M, or 500M? My best guess is they won't, ever.

I've been turned down for jobs because I don't speak a Chinese language.

I've been turned down for a job because I wouldn't be a culture fit for the majority Indian development staff.

I've been told "No, you can't work from home.. if you can work remotely, we can eliminate your position and have someone in India do it for 1/4 the price."

Agtech Funding Dips to $3.2bn While Deal Activity Rises 10% in 2016
I think it's a balancing act with plenty of gray area. Personally, I almost always side with employees in cases like this, because it's ridiculous to me that a company could claim ownership of things that its employees create which are unrelated to their jobs, or which they produced with their own time and resources.

But I also think that there are some people who are exceptional cases. The real high earners in a company, especially if they're technical staff, are probably real luminaries in their field, and the company is paying them a significant premium in both money and autonomy because they believe that such an employee will produce a lot of valuable new ideas for the company.

So if your rock star programming wizard quits to start a new company, taking a project that they've been iterating on during work hours on their company computer for the past 6 months while they were drawing a paycheck...well, if you look at it from the company's point of view, you can understand why they would feel like they got robbed blind.
Think of "code editor" and "IDE" as two endpoints on a continuum. VsCode is less of an IDE than Visual Studio or Eclipse, but more of an IDE than Atom.

It has has debugging and task running, after all. Sounds a lot like an IDE.
seems like a hard nut to crack, considering there are constant changes to google algos that could screw with test results mid-test, and many other moving parts. I think what you are doing is great, have built similar tools in the past and always ran into issues due to so many moving parts, but im not a statistician.

Also what do you consider success? what if one title/meta combo gets a better rank but fewer clicks(ie; the bots like it but the users dont)? which one would you keep? I know many people like to brag about how many rankings they have but as an SEO for over a decade, i think traffic count is still king. in that id rather rank 11th for an extremely high volume term, then rank 2nd for a low volume one.

another thought... a blackhat site gets banned halfway through one of your tests and you move up based on no actions you took. thus you would get a false positive, no?
No. I have Pro and I can do it. And I think you can download the Group Policy Editor in other versions of Windows, and even if you can't, you can modify the pertinent registry keys.

Firebase is the killer here. AWS and Azure don't have it or anything comparable for realtime data. If they do, please tell me about it because I'd love to know about it!

I'm particularly interested in this because I'm building a product supported by Firebase and will have the same lock-in described in this filing.
Oh my god. Please list the traditional Democratic views he holds, starting with abortion, health care, gun rights, separation of church and state, and undocumented immigrants.

I never said he did. I said greedo shouldn't have given that consent.

> Allowing a quick search to confirm that you're just pursuing a harmless hobby and are not putting yourself in any danger or likely to be reported missing a couple of hours later, seems like the easiest and fastest way to deal with that particular encounter.

It puts you in danger of arrest and false charges. It's irrelevant what police suspect. You do not submit to them to make things 'easier' or 'faster'. Your only concern must be to protect yourself, even and especially when you're 13.

Duane's book is full of examples of people who thought it would be a good idea to cooperate with police, only to find themselves charged with crimes they didn't commit and some of them ended up in jail.

Is it worth $25bn? Seems like a (massive) stretch, but maybe. Can it still realistically increase in value from this point? Probably not.
Just a piece of paper which goes to the bin when the project (or a part of it) is done. All notes regarding the code go into comments which helps teammembers as much as it helps me (I hope) .
I don't remember the tool I used for notes but it jut stopped using it a long time ago. It is just a waste of time in my opinion. What do I need random sql or other code for? If it is part of a project there is no need to duplicate it (if it is your software might suck). And if it is some other project there is usually not much use for it anyways.
Maybe I am weird in that regard but usually I am just fine with a few doodles on paper and proper documentation.
Another idea is one-shot learning using deep generative models. DeepMind had a paper on this last year:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1603.05106
I understand why people feel this way. But the premise of this concern is that the Trump administration could be meaningfully influenced by these clubs. In really no administration is this the case. Kalanick's real role on the "Business Advisory Council" is as an endorser of Trump and his policies. That's not just supposition: it's Kalanick's stated reason for leaving the "Council".

Further, there being no rational basis for the construction of an immigration ban that detains pre-schoolers at the border and denies visa- and green-card-holders access to their homes, we've already reached a point where the idea of rational inputs to Trump's policy process miss the point. Trump isn't looking to accomplish serious domestic policy objectives.

Finally, I don't think we need to spend too much time on the concern that leaving a "business advisory council" is going to deprive the leadership of multi-billion-dollar corporations of access to the policy-making process anyways. I'm pretty sure any CEO in the Fortune 500 can get any meeting they want regarding policymaking in the Trump (or Obama) administration.

Unless there's some demographic anomaly about Uber I haven't picked up on, Kalanick's employees overwhelmingly oppose the Trump administration. I prefer to see this as a hopeful sign that no matter how outsized their compensation, tech's leadership remains beholden in at least some ways to its rank-and-file employees. Now it's time to find better ways to put that influence to use.

We can't spend 8 years complaining on this message board about how unfair options packages at big tech companies are and then shrink away when given the opportunity to use our market power to help people in real need.
> cortana is clippy, we all know that.

This is one of the things when they announced was going to be a big part of Windows 10 I knew would turn a lot of people off. I used it sparingly on my WP8, and it was hit or miss most of the time with searches.

For instance, I always look for pizza places when I'm in a new city. I was in a new city and had some recommendations from clients. I asked Cortana like five times onmy WP8 and every time she would get it wrong or think I was saying something else. On my Android? One time, nailed it.

Also, the desktop integration is down right invasive compared to how the mobile version worked. I don't really use it at all anyways on my desktop, its not very accurate and my app launcher (executor: executor.dk) works way faster anyways for a majority of stuff I'm looking for.
Come on, HN. How can nobody be mentioning some of the much cooler stuff available on Google Cloud?

https://cloud.google.com/products/machine-learning/

It's a mistake to just compare Google with AWS, thinking in terms of basic storage and computing. That's boring and obviously there are tons of alternatives, including Snap Inc. building it themselves, for the amount of money cited.

When it comes to cutting edge AI and related, Google's offerings clearly stand out among other cloud services.

If this garners much media interest (and I can't see how it won't), what are the chances that Trump takes it as a public rebuke and looks for revenge?

Yesterday, it was with Australian PM Turnbull whose crew had been publicly very supportive of Trump and especially on this immigration issue. Up came the 1,250 refugee deal that risked making Trump look like he lacked control, and he reacted pretty badly and very publicly. And that was with a long-time ally and ongoing supporter.

In my opinion, it's highly unlikely that you could match Google's hardware for $2 billion ever, much less in 5 years.

Keep in mind that Google's revenue in 2015 was $75 billion. Their hardware and software know-how is fundamental to their ability to make this kind of revenue, so you better believe they're investing more than a measly $400M per year (Snap's $2 billion over 5 years) back into their hardware. This Snap commitment is a drop in their revenue ocean, at 0.5%.

From a non-fiscal perspective, there's a lot of other great reasons to think so. For one, they've been building custom hardware for a decade at least to support the needs of running at the scale they do. Worth checking out this paper [1] and this video [2] if you're interested in some of what they've been doing purely on the networking side. In mid-2015 their newest data centers were pushing 1 petabit per second of cross-sectional bandwidth. [3] That's mind-blowing capacity.

So their internal data center networking is at or near top of class. In addition to this, they've also invested heavily in inter-DC and backbone capacity [4. Again, this is something that you presumably benefit from when, say, distributing your content across the world for faster access.

In addition to that, you get access to all their class-leading scheduling software and state management software that they've developed, refined, and redeveloped over the last 15 years. They know how to take a pool of compute and storage and turn it into solid distributed systems like only a few organizations do. I'm sure they get a good amount of advising from Google's experts somewhere in that $2B, not to mention services like BigTable, Kubernetes, etc. that you can find on their growing products page [5].

So though I can't back my prediction up with solid data, since I'm not a Google exec, I think it's pretty obvious that even $2B is not going to get you anywhere close to Google's existing infrastructure. Definitely not in 5 years.

All copyleft licenses have the same principle; to promote openness. This is explicitly not the same as "use it however they want".

I think the motivation to not have your open source code used in a closed source product that is sold for profit should be obvious.

> or any other commit heatmap for that matter

The problem with heatmaps and how they are currently used by popular tools, is they only provide novelty metrics. That is, metrics that are interesting to look at and nothing more.

Commit heatmaps are actually quite useful for answering a lot of questions, if used properly.

Here's an example, that shows how they can be used to help you navigate to the first commit.
