> Sure, a client can follow the links in an automated fashion, but how is it supposed to know what the resources actually are and which links it needs to follow, which resources it has to create or modify, to actually accomplish anything?

I've never understood this either. My API client isn't smart enough to follow links and write logic for me, so when they say "the client" can "discover", they must be referring to myself, and not my code? Well I'd much rather read documentation than click hyperlinks inside an API.

* what a healthy level of immigration is

specifically, what reasons is it being used for? It's been discussed here many times that the H1B program for tech workers is being used to depress wages and remove the immigrants' rights to competition. So while a politician may seem so shiny and "progressive" for increasing immigration, you never know if their back pockets are being padded by the tech corporations who save billions of dollars by not paying the "free market" rate for the skilled work.
As the article also mentions, London spent a lot of it's olympic preparations thinking about what will happen to all the building and materials after the games. I was in design school at the time and we all submitted proposals for reusable architecture, etc. There was so much idealism, we all assumed things will be turned into sculptures or street furniture and the olympic park will itself will become an open site where people will hang out, etc.
I wasn't in London for the games, but planned to go back to see the park after. When I got there a month after the Olympics, it was all abandoned, closed, fenced around and all you could see is giant empty parking lots. If they did any recycling I didn't see any of it.
He was remote, but not quite that remote. At least in his mind, he knew he always had to fear getting caught and be as camouflaged as possible. Heck, he didn't even allow himself a fire.

These sort of constraints make some of the primitive technology quite a bit more difficult to utilize.

Not to mention that he was relying on stealing books - the folks he was stealing from needed to be interested in such things. In their (assumingly) middle class homes, I can see how that might not be in their libraries.

REST describes relationships just fine. Now return a list of 100 documents that each have a list of related comments. Your client just needs to request

GET /documents
GET /documents/1/comments
GET /documents/2/comments
GET /documents/3/comments
GET /documents/4/comments
GET /documents/5/comments
..
GET /documents/99/comments
GET /documents/100/comments

Easy, right?

>The solution is to pay them better and forbid them from taking tips. Make it clear to customers that it's not even allowed, let alone expected.

That's basically what Uber did (except for "you have to refuse once"). They tried to make it a tip-not-required zone and make everyone understand this going in. And yet still, you hear the refrain,

"What, I'm basically a cabbie. Don't you tip cabbies? Shouldn't I be getting tips?"[2] [3]

Even the media coverage comes with that implicit assumption. To paraphrase: "under the ruling, Uber drivers can solicit tips -- you know, like cabbies, duh".[1]

It's like people think that tipping cabbies is some fundamental invariant of reality rather than a default custom that can be overridden by explicit agreement. [2]

My uncle still thinks I'm a bad person because I didn't visibly tip the Lyft driver. "No, it's through the app" 'sure, sure...'.

Yep. In theory, one could imagine various schemas at various levels of abstractions that allow the client to 'know' what's going on, automatically deriving it from the schemas.

I think this is also the theoretical promise of one approach to linked data/RDF.

In practice, I don't think it happens, and is not worth the conceptual and engineering overhead for the possibility of something that doesn't seem to be realistic to expect.
I always thought that Firefly's scenario of a bunch of Earth-like worlds in close enough proximity to have regular trading ships flying between them was unrealistic. Now, not so much. This system even fits in with the "Abandon Earth en-mass, move to new set of worlds" backstory.

So, what did J.J. know, and when did he know it? And for that matter, how did he know?
Sounds like tidal forces would be extreme.
Uh, "1-2 trillion" IS "trillions". I'm not sure how you can make that out to be misleading.

Stating "trillions" in lieu of "tens of trillions" or "hundreds of billions" might be misleading, but this is not.

Humble Book Bundle: Arduino and Raspberry Pi
A bulk deletion isn't defined as part of their "Standard Methods" .. For stuff that doesn't fit the standard methods, they have this page on custom methods: https://cloud.google.com/apis/design/custom_methods

That said, I'd implement a bulk deletion in one of three ways:

:::: ONE

DELETE /thingies/id1,id2,id3

When all is ok, the response is a 200. However, if one of the deletions fail, how you handle the response is more complicated.

:::: TWO

POST /thingies/bulk_delete

and have your ID's listed in the body. Still same problem with handling the response.

:::: THREE

POST /bulk

Instead of implementing a bulk deletion at all, think about how you can implement "bulk requests" as a higher level feature of the API.

So you can transport a bunch of delete's as part of a single HTTP request, and get back a bunch of response codes packaged into a single response.

> CONCLUSIONS: Exercise acutely increases the risk of adverse CV events, with greater risk associated with vigorous intensity. The risks of an adverse CV event during and immediately after exercise are outweighed by the health benefits of vigorous exercise performed regularly. A key challenge remains the identification of occult structural heart disease and inheritable conditions that increase the chances of lethal arrhythmias during exercise.
Yes. Updated packages for this CVE are already out, and you can just `apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot`. Unless you're prepared to invest organizational effort in a kernel build process, the amount of security you gain from running a custom kernel, in exploits that don't affect you, is vastly outweighed by the amount of security you lose when an exploit does affect you and you have to get around to doing a local kernel build. Good luck if the person who usually does it is sick that day.

It's certainly possible to build infrastructure to automate compiling, testing, and pushing out a new kernel, but very few organizations are going to justify that much development effort just for security reasons. If you're already building your own kernels because you have other technical reasons for it, and therefore have already put this effort in, then yes, just turn off CONFIG_IP_DCCP and call it done.

I take slight issue with "Let's Encrypt certificates are indeed the lowest grade of SSL certificates".

Other issuers perform domain validation in the same ways (specific content at a specific URL, DNS records, e-mail validation, etc.) as LetsEncrypt. LE just makes it easier.

And, from a technical perspective, certificate X from issuer A is no different than certificate Y from issuer B (assuming both A and B are trusted root CAs, same key length, etc.).

If your issue is with DV vs. EV, yes, I agree that LE certs aren't on the same level as EV certs, but that's not the problem LE is trying to solve.
I guess. I just can't imagine any so called minorities appreciating the assumption that they are so fragile and need special treatment.

As a person who has been recruiting software engineers for the past 12 years, and quite picky about it, there are two signals I'm looking for at the first stage of the funnel: LinkedIn (more specifically if we know anyone in common who can endorse you, and your recommendations), and your OSS profile. The only thing I use a CV for is to look up your contact details.

The next stage is all about 1on1 conversations and pairing sessions.
Thank you all for the good responses on the error code issue. I particularly appreciate the ops view on this, e.g. the existence of much tooling around monitoring HTTP codes. Since I'm a pragmatist I'm not going to defend my point of view too vigorously, but concede that there are other considerations, particularly when designing services to work at scale. Everything breaks at scale, including many things we believe to be wise and true :)
I guess I find the phrasing really odd. It seems to imply that there is an independent country named France in Latin America. It would be similarly odd to hear someone refer to the country of the United States in the Caribbean.

I also don't know that excluding French Guiana from "Latin America" is actually correct anyway. French is a romance language.

The problem with things like 404 is then you need to differentiate between

"Hi, this is the application and the object/document/whatever you are looking for was not found"

with

"Hi, this is the server and the api endpoint was not found"

An API I use returns a standard apache 404 error page when the item you are looking up doesn't exist. If the API endpoint was renamed my code that consumes it wouldn't have any idea anything was wrong.

I think AMD should focus on OpenBLAS and add support for their new CPUs there.
OpenBLAS is part of the foss toolchain for the easybuild easyconfig. So for the HPC field adding support to OpenBLAS would be great.

When i was young, I had an excellent factual memory. I'd remember rules for dungeons and dragons, i could tell you the page, the paragraph and the nearby art to look for. As i got older i noticed that type of memory started to fade, and i'd remember things more procedurally - what things do rather than what they are. It takes me longer to find a rule in a book, but i have deep understanding of what that rule does, how it works.

D&D is a silly example, but it happened for all sorts of things. I sometimes draw blanks on names or faces, but once i get the link back to a conversation we had, i can remember all sorts of details about the person.

The memories themselves are probably built because of interest, a more interesting person is more memorable. But the transition from a fact based model of the world to a action based model of the world was kind of disturbing.

I like Flow and I am actually using it right now, but I also see some negatives

It still feels like very much in beta. Things break often along the edges, there are things like interfaces that work only sometimes, the modules are always working strangely

Also, and that might be a personal thing, but for me, TypeScript itself has a more readable source code, since it's in TypeScript. Flow is in OCaml, which I cannot read.

On the other hand, I like how Flow is very "thin", and how I am just using ES6 with types "hints" on top; that's why I prefer Flow.
Your equivalence with transpiling coffeescript is false. TS doesn't really have "syntactic sugars". Just about everything in it(less the types of course) is pretty far along in the ES adoption process. There are a couple exceptions like decorators that are called out in a very visible manner.

If you target ES6 your code may look identical. Even much of the ES5 down leveling produced code that looks like a person wrote it.

I converted a 10k line coffeescript project(with async/await !) to JS and then TypeScript. The similarities are so far apart they might as well be in different dimensions. But, if you don't want to take a rando posters word for it, it's pretty easy to make a little sample project and see if the output is to your liking.
Their free tier is kind of ridiculously valuable offering for free. I don't think I 'deserve' it, but I'd be awfully sad to see it go too.

Paging Mr. Money Mustache...
- You are writing javascript, not typescript.

- When typescript came out, I was an early adopter, and a lot of it's touted benefits were the class-like syntax and constructors to make it more palatable to enterprise shops (not for me, but it was easier to sell to higher ups), this is mostly a moot point now.

- flow can be attached to any codebase as the codebase stands easily. It is, I have found, difficult to bring TS into an existing project.

- flow fits nicely into existing popular js tooling, mainly babel and react.

- no risk of vendor lock in. Maybe TS compiles to pure 100% syntactically correct javascript today, maybe it doesn't in the future. It isn't javascript, so I won't know.
You're right. I use Crashplan for backup. Haven't really found a solution for sync that I like. Missing Linux client is a problem for me as well.
By now the click-bait effect of 'Earthlike’ planets has probably worn off and everyone knows how to read those titles: Flickering of some distant stars hints at some rocks circulating those stars.
Think about it, in so many sci Fi, the aliens are pretty similar to us. Carbon based, have DNA, etc.

If we seeded the galaxy with our life then a billion years from now we might get a star wars type reality where many species coexist together all because we seeded every corner of the galaxy.
But the planets are close enough to interact gravitationally. Perhaps that would accomplish more than just a slight wobble.

So this star is essentially going to live forever from what I understand (ie trillions of years). It's cool and the habitable zone is close to the star.

So I know nothing about this kind of star but I was reading something last year talking about risks to life. There's of course the obvious like being hit by comets and asteroids, gamma ray bursts and so on.

But there's also CMEs (coronal mass ejections). A CME from the Sun directly hitting the Earth would be devastating. The chance of getting hit by a CME is inversely proportional to your distance from the star just because you occupy a smaller arc from the star's perspective.

I wonder if this kind of star and having the worlds so close would pose a huge threat from CMEs. Does this kind of star even have the same number of CMEs as say the Sun?

The launch cost of launching the mass of the pyramids of gaza into orbit would bankrupt the richest economies. No your hypothetical engine won't be 100% efficient. This is completely unfeasible.

Low mass spacecraft are our only real options. A nano-sized solar sail craft powered by the sun or lasers from Earth can hit up to 20% lightspeed theoretically and its launch costs would be affordable, if not relatively cheap. We could have a spacecraft at Alpha Centauri in merely 20 years. Or simply launch them by the dozens or hundreds to various locations. Stephen Hawking has proposed this system in the past and we've had trial launches of solar sails via the planetary society and others. Its a solid and most likely doable concept at scale. Yes, your kids or grandkids will hear the results, but not you. Is that such a problem, especially when the alternatives are never launching a probe to those systems?

To be fair, the proposed Centauri mission would be within a person's lifetime. 20 years to get there then another 4 and half to get the data. So if we launch when you're in your 40s or even 50s, you'll still see the data.

We can even use this concept on heavier ships in the solar system to get to Mars quickly. How quickly? Three days quickly for a 100kg craft. This is a bit more pie-in-the-sky of course:
