Not really, it is mostly a culture thing.

There are two main communities in C++, those that embrace safety and take advantage of the language features to improve their productivity, while going down to lower level constructs if performance needs an extra push.

Then there are those that are kind of exiled C developers using a C++ compiler, forced to migrate to C++ on their work, trying to use it as C with C++ compiler.

This is the group that has more issues with Rust.

Gigabyte Aero has similar specs, not as expensive but also not as fancy looking. Can't vouch for it first-hand, but I do intend to go with one.
You are welcome to your own opinions, but I disagree. I imagine most Americans would.

Regardless, if you have decided that the government doesn't represent the people, it makes your task harder. Unless you're just saying that you can do what you want (which doesn't strike me as much of a moral position) then you have to work to divine what the collective will of your fellow citizens is and honor that.
Thank you for pointing this out. I'll resubmit.
a book with instructions for cutting pages and book-binding prints information on your retina, so the book is the "write head" of a machine that instructs you to build it and use it. It prints 3D mental formations which you record in your memory

The best part for those that care about security:

"To encourage people to pay more attention to the official language rules, to detect legal but suspicious constructions, and to help find interface mismatches undetectable with simple mechanisms for separate compilation, Steve Johnson adapted his pcc compiler to produce lint [Johnson 79b], which scanned a set of files and remarked on dubious constructions."

So although C designers saw the dangers of C and provided static analysis from the early days, many C developers keep ignoring them.

Yes, noise and battery runtime are the only two things keeping me with a MacBook. I'd be willing to compromise on other things (resolution, CPU, aesthetics), but there is still no alternative. But currently still happy with my 2015 MBP Retina.

That's the thing that people don't understand if they've never owned a MacBook. Build quality and noise are not in the specs, so they only compare it on price / power. Also some people just don't care that their fans are running constantly...
PayPal is a nightmarish company. I've lost ~3000 USD to PayPal when I was doing small business back in early 2000s. Their "buyer first" policy had screwed us big time, even though we have provided all the documentation to contest the bogus claims. PayPal froze our money, and terrorized me for a whole year with collections agencies. It was awful. I am out of 3K dollars, and I have stopped using PayPal since.

I switched to a Lenovo P50 for this very reason (the one I have comes with a 4K display, an eight-thread Xeon processor, 64 GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA Quadro M2000M with plenty of horsepower). The cooling systems on the Razer laptops are woefully inadequate for what they are supposed to handle.

The P50 is a bit heftier than the Razer, but it's built like a tank, and it has an awesome copper heatsink + dual cooling fan system that keeps my temperatures on the very low end relatively speaking.

Lenovo laptops are impossible to break as well, and the keyboards are immaculate, great key travel and response -- it feels like you are using a desktop machine instead of a laptop.
Consent is not the same as informed consent. Libertarian utopia is ripe for getting people tricked and robbed while technically fulfilling contracts to the letter.

Consider what would happen in, say, medicine without the informed part.

And saying you can switch... Typically not due to availability, lack of information and monopolies.

The other question is who enforces these contracts and who prevents these people from abusing their means.
Programming Phoenix is one of the few programming books I've read cover to cover. Not only does it cover the nuts and bolts of how to do things it also goes into why things are as they are because it was written by the same team responsible for Phoenix itself.
Can't trust such ideas. Especially when I read about "conventions are good". No, "conventions" is the plague and that example of mod.rs is an example of crappy thing in Rust, difficult to gasp by a newbie. Exactly because it's just "convention". Hope they will not destroy Rust by adding more "conventions" or by switching to " implicity over explicity" camp of noobs.
Seems like the #1 reason we are running out of sand, is concrete doesn't last very long. The #1 reason for concrete not lasting long that is rebar. Sure rebar lets you use less concrete, but then it doesn't last nearly as long. Without rebar concrete can last 1000s of years (like the roman aqueducts.)
Buses and airplanes are GREAT reasons for the nub. When you're already in really cramped space, sometimes it's elbow gymnastics to move your hand down to the touchpad, and the nub allows fairly quick/accurate mouse movements without bending your wrist into some weird contortion or elbowing the person next to you.

I fell in love with it after building a large bulk of an app on the 17 express bus over the course of a year.
Have you tried using some of the pixel unsticking utilities that are available that futz with the surrounding pixels in an attempt to convince it to behave?

I can't begin to guess at the underlying physics of why doing that works for things that persist across a cold boot, but the few times I've had a stuck pixel, they've been useful.
If this conversation happened, you should be glad. That does not sound like the type of place you would want to work at in the first place.

> "You are a great candidate, and we would like you to interview with this other role. But this particular role is not a good fit"

If that's common, then your sales pitch for yourself isn't targeting the job you're applying for. You need to downplay some of your prior accomplishments, if they're tied to whatever the "other" tends to be, and play up more of what's focused on the particular role you have, even if it's weaker.
You're moving to a smaller company, so I hope your comp expectations are smaller too.

This would be my first guess. Ask for less money. Even phone up places where you were rejected and say your expectations have changed.
when the world is out of sand, will the desert dune sand or traditional beach sand be worth more?
I'm not sure what to make of these comments here. What Linus does is a mix of software engineering, project management, people management, and product management. Computer science might be a distant fifth, as is the case with most people in the industry. There's no sense in poking fun at homomorphic encryption for being "hip". It's hip because it's a result that computer scientists have been trying to discover for many years, one with tons of potential applications.

I also have to agree that formal verification is largely an academic endeavor. Static analysis is taking off these days but that's not formal verification in any sense. There are a few projects here and there that are formally verified, and certainly there are tools for formal verification, but I've met precious few people in industry who even know how to use proof assistants. This includes my experience working with aerospace clients. Formally verified components, either hardware or software, tend to be small. The first formally verified kernel, for example, is the seL4 microkernel and verification took from 2006 to 2009. Suffice it to say there are few formally verified kernels floating around.

Since Lenovo's three spyware scandals, I'm never touching one again. I love my t410, but it's showing its age (or, has been for years) and as much as I wanted to go with Lenovo for a new machine, I can't bring myself to buy something that's MITMing my TLS connections or has firmware that persists spyware. These issues may be fixed in the newer models, but the company has lost all trust in my eyes.

Hrmmmm, I'm interviewing now for general helpdesk roles in my area, and my numbers for comparison are as such:
172 Applications
14 Interviews
4 Onsite
2 Offers

I very much understand your frustration with the job market and how things go, because before I was in my current location, I sent out 200+ applications and got 2 interviews with no responses. The cop out advice is to just keep trying, but I would echo sentiments to find a set of friends to interview you in panel interviews and one on one and see what kind of feedback they give, or if you can do better and get a friend of a friend to do it, that may be better since they don't explicitly know you and may give you more constructive criticism.

The repetition of the word 'underwhelmed' seems intentional, but the reason for it is unclear. It's distracting to the point that the actual content of comment is lost on the reader.
If you believe the gov't propaganda, yes. But drug dealers and child pornographers will always find alternative methods of payment because their activity is illicit.

The real reason of the move to cashless is taxes and the fact that governments everywhere borrow without intending to ever pay back. When the shit hits the fan, the payment will come out of your and others' bank accounts.
> in most instances the feedback has been "You are a great candidate, and we would like you to interview with this other role. But this particular role is not a good fit"

What are the other roles? So you've had a bunch of instances where they're eager to hire you it sounds like, and you hate your current job, so why no grab one of those other, slightly different, opportunities?
please fork the language and call it somehow RustyRuby if you prefer things to be implicit.
This about sums up my situation. I saw one of the top neuro muscular specialists in the world and she flat out said to me, "Nobody wants to hear this, but I have to be honest with you. There is no cure and there isn't much hope for one. Since this is such a rare condition there is no money in trying to find a cure. All we can do is treat your symptoms and try to help with pain management. Beyond that just hope it progresses slowly."

Initially it was Objective-C classes not Java.

Web Objects was later ported to Java and then it did generate Java classes.

I also stayed at the golf club they mentioned in the article. That part would have been nice if not for the thick layer of smog that never dissipated the entire trip.
I'd prefer something that is based on C and C++ than a new language that offers new paradigms but fails to really gain entry because it tries too much to solve some common, difficult, programming problems.

I don't really buy the whole safety issue. Granted, fighting against unsafe programming is hard, but I will always prefer a language that is easy to learn and lets you do mistakes so you can just fix them.
It's interesting how both Zelda and Mario (and perhaps their other franchises) seem to have gone through some similar evolution.

Starting with the 3D Zelda, Ocarina of Time, the franchise changed and became less open and, in my opinion, lost some of it's simplicity and brilliance. It was good in other ways, but I felt it lost something, even if just the more complicated controls, fixed camera, and decrease in art direction/quality. I can understand that considering the switch to 3D it was the best they could do, but still. I missed LTTP. Wind Waker brought some of that old charm/freedom/simplicity back, and Breath of the Wild seems to have gone all in on these things.

Similarly, I loved the 2D Mario games, and even though I also loved the switch to 3D, I had the same issues I had with Ocarina. For the most part these issues became bigger with Super Mario Sunshine (more complexity, less simple beauty in art and gameplay), except for one thing: the (very difficult) abstract acapella levels. Those gave me the same kind of enjoyment that I'd felt with the SNES mario games. I get the impression that this was a very common sentiment and that as a result, Mario Galaxy felt much more like these acapella levels and the old Mario games.

Unfortunately my favorite franchise, Metroid, managed fine even in the (spectacular) transition to 3D, and went downhill from there. I'm hoping that on the Switch they will do something similar to that franchise and somehow get the magic back of Super Metroid (and the first Metroid Prime).
absolutely agree and I think this issue is much bigger than everything together what is described in that article. Solving macros syntax issue would solve a lot of issues with verbosity.

I love both Rumi and Bowie but you're right, that was weird. The Machado was a much better fit.
I do work for Google, but not on anything phone-related, and have no more information about what goes into phone design decisions than most others randomly sampled on HN.

Consequently, no, I have no market data on what drives phone replacement, though my own limited circle of personal experience suggests either catastrophic failure or a threshold of the device performing unusably poorly as the most common reasons, more than wanting a shiny upgrade.

The phone would probably be more than 1mm thicker in order to accommodate a sturdy mount for the modular thing to slot into alone, let alone whatever additional wiring overhead might be involved for having enough bandwidth to speak arbitrary optical device protocols encapsulated in some standard - and then you might have a failure as version 1.x can only speak up to 2K resolution, 2.x 4K, and so on, so you might end up needing a phone upgrade _anyway_ to get that 4k camera.

Yes, paying upfront for a device like the Pixel buys you X years of device updates, but there are plenty of people who can't afford to buy a phone for the upfront price all at once, even if it might offer cost savings on modular upgrades later.

I might also take that tradeoff, but then, I prioritize durability in my phones over tiny size, since I have relatively large hands and a habit of breaking my phones.
As I've commented at length just now, this is an excellent set of visualisations of the damage, and history, of this story. It exceeds all media coverage I've seen of the event (though I've not canvassed all of that coverage).

I'd like to also present Wikipedia's article on the Oroville Dam Spillway Crisis of 2017, which is another example of exemplary coverage, and what's been a consistent model for me for vastly better coverage of ongoing large-scale events since the Boxing Day Earthquake and Tsunami of 2004, the first time I'd followed a major story by way of Wikipedia:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oroville_Dam_crisis

In roughly 25 paragraphs, plus an SVG image essay showing the progression of the damage, apparently original work by a Wikipedia editor, this spells out the background, event, development, implications, and history of the failure.

Both the Imgur essay and the Wikpedia article are vastly more informative than any news coverage I've seen. In the case of Wikipedia, much of that comes from its ability to synthesize information from multiple sources and place it in a coherent context. But in both cases, much of the value also comes from a focus on what I see as the salient factors, and an avoidance of fluff.

Taking a quick second look at the Wikipedia page, the one fault I'd give it is that for someone immediately affected by evacuation orders, there is insufficient information about what routes were recommended or deprecated. For that, some local news accounts (I'd read the Sacramento Bee and SF Chronicle's coverage in particular) was perhaps more useful, but only just.

I'd put hard to the press just what they see their mission as in reporting on such events. Because, much as I appreciate the media, they fell down here.

Addendum: Brad Plumer, at Vox, has previously caught my attention as an exceptionally good reporter. His article explaining the Oroville Dam crisis is cited by Wikipedia, and is itself also excellent. I'm calling it out specifically as an example of How to Do Coverage Right:

Again, there are plenty of cities where Uber have been successful where they didn't break any laws. Likewise there are many cities that have banned Uber where they don't operate. The number of cities where they operate in a grey area of regulation are often few and often for short periods of time.

Uber are more interested in operating in a regulated environment, hence all their lobbying and hence why their first hires in new cities are usually government liaison people.

Uber is equally successful in cities where it was initially thought illegal, in cities where it was always legal and in cities where it became legal.

Many other companies have ridden the coattails of the regulatory work that Uber has done.

If they were an "anarcho-capitalistic" business then they simply wouldn't care for the laws anywhere. They'd be operating in Nevada, Austin and in all of these other cities that have since banned them. They would be signing up drivers with no license or background checks. They wouldn't need any government liaison people. They'd do no lobbying, etc. and as bad as they are - they aren't that company (although many want them to be)

Ok, I'll bite. I'm on Windows 7 right now, and in the market for a new machine (on a lenovo t410). When I get a new machine, I can go with windows 7, but it's much easier for me to just go to win 10. But win 10 scares me. An OS that shoves advertisements and pictures of Trump into my start menu, as well as includes a keylogger, advertisements in my lock screen, etc screams to me of "corporate spyware!!" and every part of me that wants to keep some shred of privacy just can't accept the tradeoffs.

So, stay on an OS that's two versions out of date, or upgrade to a Windows Spyware Platinum. I hate Macs/OSx so that's out.

OR install linux, run windows apps in a VM, and hope more games come out for linux. Hell, I can even dual-boot win 10 and play games there. Seems like a decent option.
With Bitcoin it is almost impossible to figure out who an account belongs to. It's however easy to follow the money as every transaction is public.
So while you can see what the charity does with the money, and also confirm that they received it, it's almost impossible for the charity to figure out who sent the donation.

An account in Bitcoin is just a long random number. And you can create as many accounts as you like. In order to find out who the account belongs to you have to trace back the money to an exchange, and not only hope they will cooperate, but also that they have not deleted the records of the transfer.

What ? I am not saying I buy that logic. I am even trying to explain where the confusion comes from and in doing so showing you didn't explicitly write what's attributed to you (sending .exe files in archive files).

It happens a lot in threaded discussions here that a parent's opinions or points get carried over to child posts and then grand-children posts who seems to assume every answers only adds up details to reinforce the opinion instead of nuances.

I downvoted you for being a dick in the way you respond to the comment wrongly assuming you send .exe files. That is my only assumption here.
