The terminal is the 'last-mile' endpoint in a centralized system that delivers real-time data to subscribers with low latency and actually allows them to take action on data. Low latency is what sets it apart from closest competitors such as Reuters.

The ability to trade is perhaps no so important these days given the advent of algo trading/stat arb, but it serves to emphasize the point that there is more to the terminal than just viewing the data.
Thanks, we added 2012 above.
Exactly. e.g. it might be much easier (for some) to come up with a finished product/Game with Unity, with mouse clicking here and there... But it takes away all the fun of game development. On the other hand, I'm pretty sure it is hell a lot of fun working on Unity itself... So all the sweet is for their in-house devs :) (Same goes for Rails, Node, .NET, etc...)

Consider it learning experience - for that leadership role you want. What it is that demotivated you, exactly? What you leaders could do to take better advantage of your skills and ambitions, to make you more productive and as result more happier? Is it just you being demotivated or other people too? How does it affects performance?

What will you do differently once you are leader to avoid similar demotivation of talent? Leadership is not just decision making, it is also dealing with issues like this. They won't tell you, so self awareness now will go long way later.
This is false, I have an i7-6900K and 128GB of RAM on an X99 motherboard. You could do the same with a significantly cheaper CPU, too.
One is reminded of the "The Wing or the Thigh" scene in the food factory.
With almost 8 BILLION people on this planet soon, not everyone can meaningfully contribute to something that can't be done more efficiently by automation (which is also cheaper for everyone and easier on the environment) or done away with entirely. See [1], [2], [3] for examples from our not-so-distant past.

You just cannot expect everyone to "earn" money while expecting technological progress to continue unabated.

All git repos have "repositoryversionformat", you can bump it. And nobody is going to complain about having to do a fresh clone, given what just happened.

"Not having security eggs in one basket" is exactly irrelevant here. Upgrading the hash does not make the other parts of the system weaker, and should have been done years ago. Yes, SHA2 will also become weak eventually - so then you bump it again. The point is to choose the best one for that time of history, which he has been resisting doing for years, based on bullshit pseudo-arguments about "trust".

No, git uses hashes in the same way that most other security system use hashes. The "trust" comes at a different point of the system. No hashes by themselves are "trusted" anywhere by any system. Git is not special in this regard. I repeat, Linus is talking horseshit and this horsehit argument is unfortunately getting repeated and spread around because of his position in the community.

I said the use of GPG is pointless, not SHA1 pointers, especially given his "trust" arguments. To exaggerate slightly, just to show you the point: it's like locking up a crappy lock (SHA1) inside a really secure safe (GPG). But this crappy lock is what opens up the real safe where your actual money is kept (the tree objects). And then we have Linus talking shit on the side saying the keys are not so important, but what he really gets security from is his trust in the delivery company that ships the safe around.
Also the camera rental cost goes to the client. The computers to process are generally owned by the company doing the work. Big difference. I will regularily spend $1-2k for cameras for ~1 week, and pass that on, but still use our own gear for processing.
If this solves their basic needs, housing, food, medical, education, ..., then why would they need to 'strive for change"? Seems to me the world would be a far better place if people could get more content with just living. We have no shortage of produce already, and that is before the automation revolutions coming in the next decades. Just living without exponential 'wealth' accumulation plans that invariably seem to include some form of over-exploiting natural resources while externalizing the effects, or rent-seeking schemes that create lopsided distributions, seems to be a far more 'civil' future.

The specifications from the client are quite particular, and usually only one or a few cameras meets the spec.

The computers often are owned by the company renting the gear, where the end customer pays for the camera rental.

So it's not so simple. And one thing - go easy on using the word idiot... I work with some very smart people who fit your description of idiot on a regular basis.
There was probably no law requiring a license/permit or otherwise to have a motor vehicle, or horse, or age restriction... and likely no sobriety restrictions, depending on location, either.
It also pays off to double check whether they are actually dumb, or whether it is just ressentment talking. Are thay really stupid or rather less experienced or maybe they just have different opinions? If it is disagreement, then it is much effective to argue instead of teach.

If somebody inserts random odd generated crud in the middle of your source code, you will absolutely notice

Unless I'm misunderstanding how this would work in practice (I assume commits being added under my name or existing commits being modified?), I'm abolutely not buying that though. Way too general, no? I would likely notice something like that, but I know enough colleagues who are just as likely to not notice. Mostly because they don't fully grasp git so they're just like 'hmm, thing says I'm behind, ha I know the fix is pull, yes I'm a git wizard' and just pull then continue working without even checking what got changed.

If you hire a woman over a man because of the "diverse opinion" you expect her to bring

Right, this is what I like to call the Google Fallacy. If you have a team that represents all genders, races, etc etc but they are all recent graduates of the same handful of CS programmes, then where does the diversity of opinions actually come from? This is why Google keeps making products and abandoning them when they fail to gain traction, or produce public disgust like Glass. To be actually diverse companies must move beyond the tickybox culture of just looking at gender and colour and look at actual lived experiences.
Newsticker – NETZWELT
I like the spirit of this article. We don't really have a successful paradigm for how to design ambitious user interfaces for power user tools.

But I'm not sure I agree with most of the examples.

For example, Slack isn't really a power user tool. It's a tool that does its job best if everyone in the organization can understand and use it, and making it more like a terminal isn't going to help with that. Speeding it up would still be beneficial, of course. (Also, it looks like there are plenty of terminal clients for Slack if you're in to that.)

Things like animations can actually be very helpful in giving you an almost visceral understanding of the spatial logic of the UI. Without animations it becomes very abstract. It's about balance obviously, using repeated slow animations for branding purposes is not a good idea in a tool like a password manager that you unlock 20 times per day.

Only the lawyers win.
I think you've made some cogent points here. The '30s here were not deeply structural or were they? That is, during the Depression, there was always the potential to climb back closer to full employment. It was thought to be part of the business cycle.

If automation takes way more jobs than it creates, possibly a lot more jobs, then nothing will jump start economy into jobs creating machine even if with higher economic growth.

So there's no gaming the business cycle to kick job growth into gear, though.

Without UI or perhaps a better program that works on the same program, you're NOT keeping the dire wolf from showing up at your window to collect his due. The '30s came close to that condition.

I look at what I've written and I can tell I'm losing some coherence due to fatigue as the night wears on so hope it still came through what I was trying to say here. Sadly, because I don't stop by HN enough I might have to sign off soon but maybe I'll stay only for while surfing to see what emerges as I've personally found this discussion great. And other than maybe some minor flair ups of which I'm guilty of as much or more than average, I feel this HN community is pretty damn solid. Nobody actively tried to make look stupid or applied ad hominem attacks, it's an earnestness here that I admire Earnest gets worthwhile work done so keep it up.
Did you miss every example people gave?
Mincome guaranteed an income floor but it was not UBI. It was a means-tested income supplement to ensure that someone's income didn't fall below $16K year. If they already made $16K they didn't get any Mincome. If they made $8K, they got $8K Mincome.

GiveDirectly gives everyone in the community who registers $22 month. The amount doesn't go down if the person starts to independently generate income. It will be universal, not means-tested.

This isn't necessarily a better experiment, but it is a different one.

What does giving money to every person in a poor community tell you that giving money to poor people in a wealthy community doesn't?

Well, we don't know. Hence this experiment. Mincome, however successful, was basically a deluxe "welfare" program with all the negative baggage that comes with it. If we're giving a supplement to the poor, and taking away that supplement if they become wealthy, some argue it functions as a 100% tax on work, hence functioning as a disincentive. (That's in addition to the "disincentive" of not forcing poor people to work to meet their basic needs.) If you're in Mincome, why take an $8,000 yr. side job? It would be like working for free. But a person on GiveDirectly, if they get a $10/month side job, their total income will be $32. Side work will continue to be a financially productive investment. It's a different type of experiment.

So when I said "work on something not work related", I didn't necessarily mean "creating a side-business". It could also be studying or something. In my specific case, I try to study a specific subject each week, for which I invest 4h per week. In fact, it doesn't even have to be technical, I just try to focus on something rather than reading bits and pieces about everything on HN, Twitter, etc.

It brings together a vast variety of otherwise extremely hard to find information. The keyboard is specialized because it literally reduces the number of keystrokes required to quickly access financial information. This is a business where seconds matter - even when you have humans talking to other humans to negotiate trades.

Literally almost every piece of useful financial information is available via bloomberg. And I don't mean relatively basic info like "What's the current yield the Apple 3.85% of 2043?" or "What's the current CDS spread for Citibank?" that you can easily google for but also stuff like "Which oil tankers are in for repair right now, and what are their capacities?" and similar info on power plants, international agriculture, equities, interest rates, etc.

Experienced bloomberg users have their most-used keystrokes in their muscle memory. Less experienced users can hit F1 twice and immediately be connected to a live bloomberg rep who will research your question for you (although it may take 20 minutes for them to figure it out).

Bloomberg Chat is also extremely important, as others have mentioned.

One thing that scares me is that links like they should be shared. So I think people would just be sending these links to the other person over open email. But the link IS the doc, and people will share it incorrectly. So it doesn't hit the server with the doc on it... but it hits facebook, gmail or snapchat so the other person can get it.

Comments are limited to 65536 bytes, and the JPEG spec doesn't offer any way to break an image stream up except for progressive mode or restart intervals (otherwise, the image stream must be a single intact entity). The trouble is that it's probably not _technically_ legal to stick comments before restart interval markers (putting comments _after_ the markers just breaks all the readers since presumably they are expecting image data). So, GhostScript's JPEG reader gets confused when it fails to see a restart marker immediately following an image data chunk, and aborts decoding.
First thing you should do when you find yourself in a hole is stop digging.

If you feel a loss of motivation, the worst thing you could do is feel guilty about it. Feel like you're somehow bad or inferior because everyone around you seems to have this drive to move forward and you don't.

It's completely OK to not feel particularly motivated. Your job is not your life; sometimes it's fine to just work 9 to 5 and put only the effort required, nothing extra. Spend your nice salary on things that you like. Excersize because you like it, not because you have to. Do something else with your time. Meet friends. Watch TV shows. Don't care about wasting your time, just enjoy wasting it.

And please, when you see the people with "TED speaker", "self-motivated", "energetic" image, take it with a grain of salt. This happens to everyone, it's OK.

Sure, that's always true, in the worst case. Perfect security doesn't exist. But does it need to be an attacker? Couldn't it just happen that an important bugfix isn't recorded because the hash collides?

On the desktop, prelighting _used_ to be a functional aid: as the mouse cursor hovers between two items, the instantaneous lighting of the next and darkening of the previous provided immediate feedback that a click would reach that widget.

Not only did Kodak invent the digital camera, at the end of the 90ies, it was on the top of the digital camera market. Both Nikon and Canon cameras used to be available in a Kodak digital version. These were the first professional DSLRs. It took Nikon and Canon some time to come up with digital solutions of their own. Only in the mid 2000s, Kodak basically decided to exit the digital camera market, and the rest is history.
