The FAQ links to an account of an attempted takeover of the domain that I found fascinating to read: http://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/decisions/html/2006/d2006...

Some interesting excerpts:

> vii) it is unlikely that the Respondent was unaware of the Complainant’s trademark considering the fame and tradition of the trademark GAIL

I have personally never heard of GAIL and found it funny that this was part of the complaint. They even move on from "unlikely" to "fact" when accusing the owners of gail.com that they were acting in bad faith:

> Furthermore, because the Respondent registered the domain name exactly when the Complainant increased its sales of GAIL products to the United States, this should be identified as an abusive practice. Lastly, the Respondent knew about the existence of the Complainant and of its GAIL trademark and nevertheless proceeded with the registration of the domain name.

The owners of gail made a counter-claim:

> (d) Reverse Domain Name Hijacking

> The Respondent alleges that the Complainant is using the Policy in bad faith for reverse domain name hijacking.

The arbiters ended up deciding that the owners of gail.com had a "legitimate interest" in operating the domain name, so they didn't comment on GAIL's accusation of bad faith.

(As someone who really detests IP law in its various forms, I've always found it unnerving that domain names can be seized simply based on whether a third party thinks your use is "legitimate" or not.)
Factor (http://factorcode.org/) supports that syntax:

3,400,000,000 3400000000 =
9,312 9312 =
4,294,967,296 4294967296 =

It's pretty useful for writing large numbers.

> And ultimately it's their store and their rules.

It wouldn't be as bad if their store weren't also the only store available for the platform. Because of this forced monoculture, the criticisms are well within scope.
You presume wrong.
No, works for me.
> Q: I think you're infringing on my trademark...

> A: If you consult with someone well versed in trademark law, they will tell you that you can't have an exclusive trademark on a common word or name. My husband and I successfully defended ourselves against an attempted domain takeover in 2006; see WIPO Case D2006-0655 for more information.

Well, it depends on the jurisdiction. In France, in the infamous "Milka" case, the opposite happened:

I think you hit the nail straight on the head. Sure, Tensorflow will also probably get pushed in the form of tutorials, etc. but I certainly think it's rather related to bring a way to popularize GCS.

I went from windows machine to PC-BSD 10.3 about 2 years ago and then to TrueOS. At first I really liked it, specifically ZFS integration. I consider ZFS a hidden gem of data storage. After the second update troubles began. Every time there was a new system update, some software was quietly removed from the system. If I reinstalled it by hand again, usually something broke. I guess it wasn't compatible with the newer version od the OS. After a couple of updates most of the software I liked and considered important didn't work. Also in general most of the software in the appcafe is a version or two behind the current version available for other systems. On PC-BSD I used KDE which I found very useful. On TrueOS i'm using Lumina which simply isn't there yet. I'm currently looking for way to migrate back to Windows while keeping ZFS around.
I just had my first son 3 months ago and I must say he is a delight.

I have felt a little guilty about my productivity but it is totally worth it.

My best advice is just to stop comparing yourself or your family to other people.

I've found it really breaks the ice between colleagues .. especially when our kids make friends/make drama independently from the office politics - it somehow unites us. :)

Of course it helps to work in a company producing things that might be actually interesting to kids in the first place. If all you're doing web-blah, ymmv..

> Libraries and tooling can also be a barrier for new developers. I recently built a project using EcmaScript 7 (babel), only to later realize that our junior dev was getting stuck trying to figure out what it all meant. Huge toll on the team’s productivity.

While I agree that libraries and tooling an be a barrier[1], I think getting junior devs up to speed with the (latest version of a) language is part of the toll you're accepting when hiring a junior.

[1] Although this still holds true if you write the library yourself, so be reluctant in getting rid of libraries that save you more than they cost you.

It's worth mentioning that TrueOS is a rolling-release based on the FreeBSD bleeding-edge CURRENT branch. As a result the hardware support is still better than in the supported FreeBSD releases (10.3 and 11.0).
I am not sure

Many scientific breakthroughs have happened because knowledge from two different fields were combined, often by accident to give entirely new understanding.
See the difference between a regular human who in theory can take a knife and violently rob or kill someone, and human-like robot that can be easily programmed to do the same. Who has to be isolated?

It's awful.

The only desktop BSD I can recommend is OpenBSD.

All you need after a fresh installation is:

echo 'xcompmgr &\nexec cwm' > ~/.xinitrc && xinit
Partially, the upstream vendor (Stryker) made some defective knee replacement joints that wear out prematurely, causing pain and issues walking. Opening the knee back up and replacing most of the parts with better designed parts is what has to be done after a decade, then you get to sit there for months and heal.
Have you looked into pg_repack [1]? It's a PostgreSQL extension that can CLUSTER online, without holding an exclusive lock. I haven't used it, but it looks interesting as an alternative to the built-in CLUSTER.

Can I ask why you wouldn't see Linux as your next home? (Trying just to have a conversation and nothing negative on anything in your remarks)

1. I also LOVE KDE (But mostly use a tile window manager i3)

2. I tried liking BTRFS (Similar to ZFS for my non-server systems and just went back to my old file system) I feel my 2 copies and one off site is a better system for desktop. I use OpenSUSE and never had a problem I couldn't figure out.

3. You can use ZFS on Linux
Rather than a speculating on what really boils down to semantics once ToS is involved maybe someone could actually try submitting an app and reporting back on whether it triggers the same failure?

I'm on PTO today and could notice how distant I am from my kids' daily routine. They see me home, but they are not sure if they can play or even talk to me, even though I'm completely available to them. I work an average of 12h a day, mainly attending project status meetings with clients, which require all my focus, no background noise or distractions, meaning that my wife and I have to keep our kids away from me. I lost count of how many times I had to ask them to be quiet or leave my home office. And it was only TODAY that I realized the profound impact that this lifestyle has on my kids firstly, and secondly on me. My kids don't know what it is like to have an available daddy. Don't know how it works. So they stay with her mother, which is routine to them. This sucks big time to me, especially because I don't know how to reverse it, nor if it is even reversible. I'll do my best. (or maybe I should consider finding myself another job)
> The term "TV License" is 1000% more offensive and outrageous, to my Canadian ears, than "TV Tax" would be.

>A "license" is a permit from the government to do or use something, and carries the implication that it's something that can be denied.

In Canada you can't have certain basic freedoms, even without a licence. (Certain drawn pornography or even dolls are examples). I don't mean to say that the situation in the UK is any better; I agree that the "TV license" phrasing is bad.

It goes to show that arguably many such countries (Canada, Aus, NZ, UK) have no libertarian (by this I mean civil liberties) core or basis, as the US, I would argue, does.
The E7's go to 160W each. If you can drive better than 1.7x the performance and stay within the maximum thermal output per physical volume, I see no reason why not to use this.

One reason, perhaps, is if my binaries are compiled with Intel-specific optimizations and it's inconvenient to deploy separate AMD-optimized binaries.
>Congress can't ban itself from doing something in the future.

You'd like to think that, but then you discover the Congressional Review Act: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congressional_Review_Act. 'Once a rule is thus repealed, the CRA also prohibits the reissuing of the rule in substantially the same form or the issuing of a new rule that is substantially the same, "unless the reissued or new rule is specifically authorized by a law enacted after the date of the joint resolution disapproving the original rule" (5 U.S. Code § 801(b)(2)). Congress has a window of time lasting 60 legislative days (i.e., days that the U.S. Congress is actually in session, rather than calendar days) to disapprove of any given rule; otherwise the rule will go into effect at the end of this period.'

It had been used once prior to this administration/ Congress.

Which non-techy city? We are based out of Melbourne Australia. All the startup events is 100% startup founders with the next uber/airbnb/facebook and zero mentors/advisors/investors.

What we realized that the success of startup is not talent and perseverance.
It's how much money you have to bootstrap, who do you know, what city your startup is based out of and how many VCs you can approach.
Interesting, though, as they never needed to own that platform to mine it for hiring leads.
As an Australian living in the US, it never occurred to me that it would be called anything but the latter.

Don't use the computer to waste time - if I need decompression time, try and make it doing something w/ kids (LEGO!)

A solid dev. environment where you can walk up, crank an iteration, and walk away. (Like in the time it takes a kettle to boil)

Learning to code in my head - basically planning the path of changes/tests I will make next time I am back at my machine. It feels to me somewhat like the 'method of loci' - a definite journey. Often times, the plan goes awry, but the successes make it worth it. After 12 years of reading to the kids, I can do this whilst reading a story to them :).
Yeah, so we can have one store with strict policies that protect users and the value of the hardware; and a bunch of other shit stores that offer apps that can hijack our devices. That makes sense!

And then Apple is to blame, and can spend tons of dollahs and man hours to fix problems caused by your "open" alternatives.
Sorry, meant to write Tibet.
What is "code"? Everybody who has programmed in LISP or Scheme knows that there is no essential distinction between code and data (only many programming languages make it a little hard to see that it is all the same). Thus Apple would have to see not only all code, but also all data that goes onto the devices. But this would imply that Apple disallows all apps that read data from a foreign (i.e. at least not Apple-controlled) server if one does not want to get into a self-contradiction.
Why would you lump these two together? I'm genuinely curious.
Sorry, but at some point logic and reason take over. No one's mentioning money grubbing capitalism here at the expense of someone else...

What we have here is literally a blank page, that offers no value to the reader. Perhaps if they showed something worthwhile I could understand.

Yet, It's only a pat-myself-on-the-back message how they defend their name.

So they USE the name to talk about how they're protecting the name. That's like people that make money teaching people how to make money.

Just take the damn money and use it for something good.

Edit: this is reminiscent of nissan.com ... he's selling computer repair for $50/hr... yet could sell his domain for millions. The main purpose of his site to primarily advertise how he's standing up to lawsuits.

'Cultural fit' is quite hard to define - sadly the phrase has a lot of negative connotations as too many people have used it to filter for people who 'look/act/think like me' or to make sure the person will regularly attend company drinks otherwise be ostracised (one example).

A more positive way to think of it could be to search for people who work well as a team, treat others fairly regardless of their role, like/employ transparency and so on.
It's possible because some of us have very supportive wives who have made a lot of sacrifices regarding their own careers. Even then, it was hard in the early years, and we never subscribed to the whole farming-the-job-out-to-a-nanny mindset, believing that since we chose to have kids, we should probably raise them ourselves rather than outsourcing it.

But on the upside, time flies once you have kids and before you know it they're teenagers and barely speak to you anymore ;) Then you suddenly find yourself with all this spare time again. On the downside, in the intervening years you've developed a serious Netflix habit that's proving tricky to kick...

Down here in the ignored bottom of the comments, all I can really say when it comes to juggling family and any other activity (job, interest, hobby...) you either do it or you do not. All I can tell you is the how of what I do.

I assume the general point is that the taxpayer will pay for all things that are "too big to fail", because we don't really have capitalism but a corporate welfare system.

The military expenses are a fair point, but just another facet of the same underlying issue.
Is it not obvious? They're practically identical in every respect, right down to corporate culture, grandiosity and being propped up on a titanic and imaginary valuation which is all that empowers them to carry out their activities.
I don't deny that it may show a bias, but as long as the information about the murders that I release is true why shouldn't it be acted upon?

Further if the Huffington Post (or name a left learning publication if you believe they are not) does an article on Trump and the facts they release are verified should we not act on them due to the lack of a similar article in regards to Obama?
I got entertainment value from it.
Depends on the kid. I could easily have mine on at 3 as long as I put something out to entertain him. You wouldn't know that he's there.

What it comes down to is a trade-off. If you want me working on the off hours and working 50+ hours a week, or working on days I'd otherwise take as a sick day, I get to bring my kids to calls.
