First and foremost, screw the green boxes on GitHub. They don't mean shit.

Second of all, there are many ways to "skill up" and that doesn't always mean creating open source side projects or experimenting with the newest fad.

After becoming a father I found I certainly had a lot less time but it forced me to cut out everything that didn't matter. That included watching tech talks, working on a bunch of small projects, getting my "commit a day" on GitHub, reading a large number of books, and so on.

Instead, I decided what I needed and wanted was financial freedom and I wanted to achieve that by building my own software business(es).

I stopped measuring myself by silly graphs or what others in the industry may or may not think of me. I stopped second guessing myself and I stopped worrying about my "marketability" or "maintaining skills" for hireability's sake.

Why worry about skills, marketable or keeping up with the fads if I work for myself? As long as I'm true to myself and I can build kickass products, I don't care about anything else.

Since then, I've built my own successful business and I am currently working on the second (second baby and second business!).
From my understanding people are giving rollout push rights to their app store accounts? So rollout can hijack all the apps it controls? It's a hell of a central authority, a security nightmare waiting to happen.
It would be tempting to vote no on an otherwise qualified candidate citing "culture fit" who has Uber on their resume and a whiff of "bro dude" about them. Ultimately though I hope I'd resist that temptation, because people deserve the benefit of the doubt; even young, white, physically fit dudes who enjoy sports and previously worked at Uber.

I've worked with some nerds who were awful mean-spirited tyrants, and some bro dudes who were really kind and sweet.
I don't get it. A test for (in)equality is commutative unless you're inducing side effects (i++) - and then side effects are going to be the big "cognitive load", regardless of which side of the comparison they occur. Am I dyslexic because (null != foo) is exactly as easy for me to read as (foo != null)?

To be fair that's just bad UX, there is no necessity for apps using rollout to access the internet as (I hope) rollout caches the app.

I agree - they're definitely putting the customer's security first. If people want to use an open environment, the web browser is always available on iOS anyway. Apple are completely within their rights to restrict their application platform.
Hypertransport is an AMD technology that's high bandwidth per line, low latency, and scalable. It's also cache-coherent (well there's a version that is), so it's great for connecting CPUs. But the AMD hardware is flexible and can use the same pins for either.

So the single socket systems can have more pci-e lanes available, but the dual socket has less per socket because some of those lanes are used for hypertransport.

What I can't figure out is why Intel and AMD aren't using similar (Hypertransport for AMD and QPI for intel) to connect directly to GPUs in a cache coherent way. These days the faster interconnects spend a decent fraction of their latency just getting across the PCI-e bus twice.

So 100 Gbit networks, Infiniband, GPUs, etc all could take advantage of a lower latency cache coherent interface, but it's not available.

I suspect mainly because qpi and hypertransport are incompatible and pci-e is good enough for the high volume cases.
Reading this makes me wonder how accurate our historical records are. And then I think of this.

Take It to the Limit: Considerations for Building Reliable Systems
God, I wish HN had a more convenient downvote button.
Apple's review isn't that useful in this case as a pre-check, it is possible to avoid it if you want. Apple review does automated code checks & a reviewer manually using your app. With that review process you can deliver executable code after the fact in any way you want and only get caught after the fact if it's even noticeable. You can even get sneaky and add some security exploit to make it look like a mistake.

It's much like the argument 'if you ban guns only criminals will have guns' and it's quite true in this case.
A windows 8 password is not a gmail password.
I can't speak as a Republican (so I risk showing my ignorance) but in a way, I think you actually have it backwards. Republicans usually care a lot about the individual real people that they know personally. However, they tend to regard broad identifiers such as "African American" or "LGBT" or "working class" as abstract artificial entities in much the same way that you think of corporations. So I think it's less "Republicans love corporations and hate people" than "Republican politicians have lots of friends in upper corporate management and want to help out their friends".

> His password was an iteration of 'password'

What the email indicated was that someone temporarily set a Windows 8 password to a variant of password.

What the email did not indicate that his gmail account itself used a variant of password as the password. It is disingenuous to conflate the two and claim his email password was password as Assange did in numerous interviews.
Hmm, I definitely had to install an update for the YouTube app to receive the double tap to rewind/fast-forward.
I agree its a long shot. But perhaps they were on the fence about it and the CIA dump pushed them over the edge. Sadly there is no actual way to know for sure.
> If you can train yourself to put the constant first, you can train yourself to use the right operator.

Right... that's assuming you work solo. In that case, you might as well be using some higher level language and sidestep the whole issue.

Most C programmers out there work in teams, in long lived projects... that means teams with rotation of personnel. This is a fuckup waiting to happen.

I get you guys do not like axes, and it is really Ok. But forgive me if I am skeptical of your axe redesigns until the day you actually go out and do a full hour of wood chopping with that fancy bastard sword of yours.

Ask HN: Anyone moved to PC-BSD (TrueOS) from macOS?
What has been your experience and would you recommend it?
No, it allows apps to be modified by the apps pulling JS code from rollout's servers. App reviews would be way too slow, and they are exactly the problem that rollout solves. However, review times have improved a lot since then.

ADDITION:
It works by "swizzling" methods, which is a valid mechanism in Apple's runtimes (like in Ruby or many other dynamic languages). In Swift, this will only work in subclasses of NSObject or its decendants, because only then message dispatch is used.

The most important thing is organization, after that is time management and finally typing speed.

Do everything you can to keep as close to 100% of your time focused on your main role (automate and/or delegate all secondary tasks). Remember every distraction costs maybe 10 minutes to get back "in the zone".

It's hard but definitely possible, have heart I have 3 kids under 5 and I think I'm doing pretty good. One last piece of advice, financial stress sucks (doubly so with children) so try to have some savings for when unexpected expenses come up as these sorts of circumstances can affect your performance directly.

10 Shit-Easy Ways to Fix Slow Internet on Windows 10
How to prioritize your work: work on tasks that will eliminate risk first
Oh man. You were surprised? Really? You blog sounds like the PR spin that came out of Aereo, a company that spent an inordinate amount of effort to stay within the absolute letter of a law. Predictably they got killed by lawsuits because judges aren't idiots and the law isn't inflexible to the point where the intent and context isn't considered. Your case is even worse because you engineered a solution to adhere to the letter of a EULA of a tightly controlled ecosystem run by a very capricious company.

I hate the app store review process and a lot of apple policies around the app store and I feel for you and I totally think there should be a less onerous update/review process ... but ... you clearly and blatantly circumvented a core policy, and what happened to you was absolutely predictable.

Get your money back from the lawyer that told you Apple wouldn't shut you down. You got bad advice.
And still is ;) Partly because some key work loads just did not run well on GPU's due to lack of addressable memory. Lots of amdahls getting in the way. Some of the key use cases required stupendous large memory machines (genome assembly using only short reads).

Then a lot of code is very branchy but massively parallel leading to clusters of pure CPUs to be more flexible, which is important in research settings, and with higher utilization than mixed CPU/GPU clusters.

GPU code takes longer to get to market and has more specialized skills required then standard CPU orientated programming. Late to market means you miss a whole wave of experimental methods from the lab.
i.e. GPU short read aligners came when long reads started to come out of the sequencing lab. Leading to people to stop doing short reads or at least stop doing pure short reads.

Secondly quite a bunch of the key staff at the large research institutes had been burned by previous hardware acceleration attempts and where not going to throw money at it until market proven.

Bio-informatics tends to cutting edge (the hemorrhaging kind) on the bio/lab tech side yet the production IT tends to balance that to doing the things we know as we already have enough risks. i.e. focus on the algorithms and robustness not on pure power.
Something needs to be done about the bus lanes then. Buses should drive in dedicated lanes, that's the whole point. If you are stuck in traffic on a bus then something isn't right.
The thing with SHA-1 is that we know (and have known for a decade) that is not a good cryptographic hash function. It is still, along with MD5, a good hash function if you control the input, i.e. in a hash table.
Distill: Clear Explanations of Machine Learning
It feels so wrong that app security still relies on manual code review.

Apple is afraid the app might call certain functions with certain parameters in the future. As an engineer I would not want to rely on human judgment what the code does.

The browser sandbox has been proven to work pretty well over the last years. That is why I prefer web apps over native apps.

A “proof by contradiction” is not a proof that ends with a contradiction
We don't know the email password was something like `p@SSw0Rd`, only that a staffer temporarily set a Windows 8 password to a variant of password. This does not mean that the gmail password was a variant of password. It was disingenuous of Mr Assange to claim his email password was password, as the only indication we had of a password being a variant of password was for a Windows 8 account and not the email account.
Snapchat Is for Flirting
I'd just like to point out that the CIA has gone so far as to have a meme warfare department. CIA agents posting on HN is well within the realms of possibility.

Don't take everything you read here at face value
The article in question here is titled, very specifically, "Snap Tumbles Below IPO Opening Price..." making the comment you're responding to especially apropos.

While you may think that just the IPO is finished "that part of the story is done", it is very specifically that part of the story that we are currently discussing.

You'd have to be blind not to have noticed the rather irrational interest that the investing public takes in IPOs lately, especially tech IPOs. Despite both the 2001 dot-bomb and the 2007-2009 crunch, there are clearly a large number of investors hoping for a low-probability / high-reward speculative investment in tech IPOs regardless of the unerlying business fundamentals.

Pointing out that IPOs are typically a sucker's game is something worth repeating, I think.
Ask HN: Were the latest Wikileaks releases really new information?
I keep seeing articles claiming that "cyber security" experts are alarmed (implying surprised) by the latest WL release, and articles claiming that the WL release has re-ignited tensions between Washington and Silicon Valley.

I'm not an expert but as someone with a little bit of familiarity with InfoSec, the latest WL release didn't contain anything surprising. What I've seen so far seems to be information that's already known to be true or widely assumed to be true (e.g., the capability to compromise endpoints). My understanding is efen the source code has been out there for a couple of years.

If I'm right then why would this substantially increase tension between Washington and Silicon Valley beyond a couple news cycles?

It is very possible that my knowledge of InfoSec is so weak that I don't even know when to be surprised...

Ultimately though I hope I'd resist that temptation, because people deserve the benefit of the doubt; even young, white, physically fit dudes who enjoy sports and previously worked at Uber.

If you substitute the gender or the color of "young, white physically fit dude" you get blatant racism or sexism.

If someone did something wrong, then hold that against them. Being biased against someone's color or gender isn't ok.

Entirely off topic, but I thought they now charge for the Windows 10 upgrade and don't force it anymore?
I have been working as a coder for almost 12 years now. We have a 3 month old baby.

Life changed a lot after the baby was born. I took time off for almost two months and now am getting into a rhythm where I can spend 7-8 hours in office everyday.

Coming to the original topic - the way I have solved skill up is by having a day job which helps me acquire skills that I want to acquire. I would never do a job where I am not learning what I want to learn. I have left multi million dollars in equity on table at jobs where I was not learning (LinkedIn, Dropbox). Moved to management roles and back to individual contributor a few times, as soon as I had acquired the skills I wanted to acquire.

Based on this strategy I have acquired following skills - Backend, Infrastructure, DevOps, Frontend web, Frontend iOS, Data mining research, Product, UX, BizDev, Sales. Current plan is Analytics and Machine learning.

Given that now I am able to do a full time day job - I am able to skill up as a part of it.

As if majority of Uber workers thought "hey, I could offend women and do shit there, I want to work for them!". And sure all programmers value workplace image over technical challenges?

It's as reasonable to think ex-Uberist is douche as that ghetto-looking dude stole a bicycle on the way to job interview. Possible? Yes. More likely than average citizen? Yes. Reasonable?

If people would be (soft-)forced to steer clear from anyone who might look like a bad actor, it'd suck big time. Want to take down opponents? Spread some rumours and people are afraid to work with them. Or companies would be over-the-top to look good instead of focusing on what they actually do. Github and their diversity team comes to mind.
You are missing the point that the "p@ssw0rd" was for a Windows 8 account, not the gmail account. There was no evidence that the gmail account password was a variant of password. It would still be disingenuous even if he claimed it was a 'variant' of password, because there is no evidence to suggest it was.
The 400x was clearly hyperbolic – and sure. But you probably don't have one-click integration with an existing battle-tested IaaS platform.

Vertical integration is powerful, and by open-sourcing Tensorflow Google is achieving useful synergies in sales and recruiting. At their vast scale, even small ROIs (as a percentage) can be massive.
This could well end up being a fantastic move for Google to also acquire customers in its platform. If Kaggle moved large pieces of its competition to be automatically hosted on GCE it might be a good win for Google. So like Kaggle's "kernels", GCE machine learning tools would become an extension that's usable with it in a really simple way. Not entirely sure what that might look like, but it feels like this kind of integration would be the best for both parties.

I agree with your larger point "normal people have no way of knowing about most things", but the glacier example was pretty clear. Just the change in vegetation over the course of the valleys was a pretty obvious indication that a huge amount of the glaciers had retreated quite suddenly from their previous, well established positions. The moraine topology was another indicator.

Even if you had never heard of "global warming" you'd look at these two signs and have suspicions that something fairly significant had caused a largish area of an entire country to increase in average temperature. You'd probably not initially blame it on human carbon emissions, but, if you had some understanding of global climate patterns in the short term, you'd probably assume that this wasn't happening as just a local effect. It's pretty difficult to locally melt all the glaciers in a few thousand square kilometers of land without changing the rest of the world's climate.
