Couple of things about the distributed systems course.

1. Maarten van Steen -- one of the authors -- recorded screencasts in 2012 (see https://www.distributed-systems.net/index.php/books/distribu... ).

2. Maarten van Steen released an updated version of the book this year about distributed systems.

Full disclosure: I followed Maarten van Steen's lectures back in the day :)

It's not a software controllable display. It uses a film concept similar to an etch-a-sketch and in the recording model, it uses a touchscreen to read the pen action, but there is no pixels/no matrix and no display that can be drawn to by software.

I asked Gor if you can use LLVM's coroutines without a runtime. He answered in the affirmative (subject to some constraints), which I take as evidence, along with his presentations, that these optimizations do indeed take place.

Even though it's nice to think of it as insurance, it's not the same thing because it doesn't come with any actual insurance.

You can donate money to a project to hope for help when you encounter some critical bug in the future. However, you don't actually get any guarantees that the community will help with said bug or return your money if they don't. That's a really hard sell if you're trying to pitch it as insurance.
Cool! I did not know this existed!
>Some people just don't want others to have nice things.

I don't know you or your situation, but it's easy to think that while not really being how this works. ADA lawsuits are filed for a variety of reasons and at least some are intended solely to be the stick that gets a company to do the right thing for a group of people who have protection under the law. Often, these lawsuits are accompanied by timelines for implementation that are pretty reasonable (months or longer). I can't speak to this particular one, but that was an experience at my company. Some companies/organizations choose to provide the benefit in one way or another, and others choose to behave in the manner of UC-Berkeley (and, presumably, they know why they are choosing to take down videos instead of captioning). It isn't fair to single out people w/ that empty platitude. Sucks that the content is being taken down, but I bet UC-Berkeley had a choice.
"maybe something else is going on?"

Over-sharing about one's mental illness, "too much information", self-loathing and private details don't help a person's job seeking efforts.

Regardless of one's engineering talent, which ironically is likely enhanced by OCD, there's good and bad choices you can make when it comes to publishing details of your personal life.

Tweets like this "I am a total failure. My entire world is crashing down around me... Fuck the world..."

While initially expressing a moment in one's life, when left published online they emit an unwanted after-image that misrepresents their initial fleeting nature.

Twitter needs an optional expiry date for tweets you mean in the moment but that don't represent your life in general.

"A few weeks ago my therapist I'd had for 18+ months essentially fired me. She said that she didn't think we were getting anywhere"... That info it best left between patient and therapist.

Why do people think their gritty life details read like a Tolstoy novel?
What an unfortunate coincidence that your names are so similar. Hopefully there will be as little PR fallout for you as possible.
This could be interpreted as a snarky comment, but is actually on point. A good democracy should function is such a way to afford for an outcome that maximize the satisfaction of each individual.
I'm totally ignorant but I thought all modern reactors had negative temperature coefficients and slowed down as they heated up?

Are MSRs less likely to melt down? Why do people say they don't?
1. if you've let it go on for months you can probably afford to wait A Little Longer.

2. because everything is relative i take "for months" to mean "for a dangerously long time". and this is what i mean by cutting your losses: it's hard to know in the moment when to fall on plan b.

everyone agrees they could train any decent programmer- no one really does it. i'm not trying to defend any practice, just trying to reconcile the contradiction.

It's one thing if a moocher country left the EU (Greece, etc), but UK has a very strong economy. Pretty soon Germany will be bearing most of the economic weight of the EU...

Completely agree that Kobos are better than Kindles for hacking purposes. Generally not as easy to find cheap used though.
No, but they are the ones who have to live with the decision the longest and on whose lives it will have the most impact.
1. MPs acted as delegates because the government was elected on a manifesto promising a referendum and to deliver on the result. The referendum happened, the UK voted to leave, and so the majority of MPs respected the will of the people and voted the bill through.

2. Considering we didn't have a referendum to join the EU in the first place, I'm not sure it makes sense to have a threshold. If the threshold wasn't met, I'm not sure how the default can be to be part of something the British people never said they wanted.

3. I absolutely agree that people need to have accurate information to base their decisions upon. So it was a real shame a lot of the information published by the remain campaign was not entirely true. I'm not sure what promise UKIP made you're referring to.

It is true that democracy requires more than simply going with what the majority want. But in this case, there was a clear choice between leaving the EU or remaining. I really don't see how it can be democratic to keep the UK in the EU after the result of the referendum.
This sort of mentality and pretending to stand on the podium of social righteousness is the problem. Things didn't go how you wanted, so therefore it must be wrong, hateful, xenophobist, and racist right?
Do you think my comment implied otherwise?

Your comment, however, dismissed that low voter turnout was sad at all, because they could have voted. And here you are saying the opposite -- that you understand it can be sad.
Imagine that 40 years ago you joined a Fortune 500 company as a junior developer writing COBOL. There's a good likelihood that your entire environment was decided by some 8-figure enterprise sales process; your OS and tooling were vendor provided and custom set up by your own internal IT team; deploying software was something that was done by a team that only saw your code after a rigid human QA process; you never even saw a PC or hobbyist computer until the time when you already had 2 or 3 kids with little spare time.

Granted there are a lot of assumptions there, but I don't think it's too hard to imagine how someone could spend a career sheltered from the current GitHub-driven development world and be completely overwhelmed.
When you have a large volume of applicants and new hires (like Google does) then you can actually start to measure the correlation of the things you can assess in the interview vs long term job performance. Then you can make your decisions about who to hire based on this evidence rather than gut feel, subjectivity, biases or even CS trivia. It's much harder for a small company to do that, so at best they can end up copying the methods of the large ones and hope that their situation is similar enough.
It's most likely representatives driven by the fear of voting against the outcome of that simple referendum. Sure it's absolutely OK technically but the whole brexit thing is still a major fuckup as nobody was remotely aware of the implications of that simple question, not even those who asked as it seems.
This is equivalent to asking, "How good are virus scanners?"

Many crypto routines have identifiable constants but there are myriad ways to obfuscate code too so I'm not sure there's an answer other than: It depends on how hard they're trying to avoid you and how hard you're trying to find them.
Strange. I don't think I have a compositor running (i3 wm, not much graphical fluff). Would you mind trying https://github.com/yjftsjthsd-g/keynav and if that doesn't work open an issue? (That's "my" fork, albeit with basically no code from me; I discovered that a number of folks were running separate forks and built a version merging as many as I reasonably could. I think one of them changes the way it renders onscreen and so may have better luck.)
It seems like a stretch to call a feature "mandatory" which was described by a RFC as "deprecated" 17 years ago.

RFCs are not a death pact. Standards can change, especially where security is concerned.
I don't really trust Google not to index stuff I put in Docs, there's no canonical open format for them the way there is with MS Office these days, and as an extension of not trusting Google, I try to avoid depending on their services more generally.
It's not just that. I also need plugins for basic functionality that RN does not provide it out of the box, like playing audio, accessing the file system, reading sqlite databases, etc.

"Linking" these plugins is black box magic, if anything the fails I have absolutely no clue what is going on.

I have a feeling that some of the hairy errors I've been getting have something to do with the plugins not being up to date with the other libraries.

But like I said, I just have no idea what's going on.

If I'm going to learn how Android and iOS code needs to be structured then I prefer to just write native code. At least I will have more control.
> Search is a pretty good way to navigate content, and is simple for raw text.

Gamefaqs hosts plain-text documents. Some of them are quite long and well-structured. Since there's no intra-document linking like with HTML, newer documents tend to have hashtags in the TOC to make Ctrl-F searching easier.

I'd much rather have intra-document links I can click on. That way, as a document author, I can direct readers to the dedicated "All The Monsters You'll Ever Fight" section from anywhere in the document without adding the string "#monsters" all throughout the document, generating false positives for the Ctrl-F-using reader.
What part of the brexit process do you think is not best described as an aberration with respect to the normal democratic process of the U.K?

I'll give you one clue. It's extremely rare to hold a referendum of such huge consequence.

Heck, I'll give you a second clue. It's even more rare for politicians to then behave as if the result of a non-binding referendum is binding.

I could enumerate for you the remaining peculiarities, but if you're curious you'll find plenty for yourself.

I do understand that people often like to point to simple cases like this and say "That's Democracy!", inevitably those people don't have a great understanding of the meaning.
Show HN: Simple Technique to Audit/Replay All SSH Sessions
I'm sorry you're homeless and chronically ill. I was talking about people in the UK though, I'm aware it's difficult in the US but to my knowledge the UK is much different.

EDIT: It appears the UK has some problems too [1], and being Australian where voting is a legal requirement, easy to enroll and difficult to drop off the register, my perspective is perhaps a bit harsh.

You must set a load balancer to use Google Cloud CDN.

But I'd recommend to use Google Cloud Storage + Cloudfront. Since you are hosting static pages that can be cached by Cloudfront, there are almost no costs on the data traffic from Google Storage to Cloudfront. Cloudfront is easier to use and you can control more.

The `sudo` command that ships with most Linux distributions has the native ability to record and replay entire sessions (both interactive and non-interactive). The `sudoreplay` command can replay those sessions (even sessions inside of `vim`).

Using the `sudosh` command as a user's login shell, you can force all sessions to be recorded. This is especially useful for bastion hosts or production systems.
That's a pretty broad assumption about CS grads. That it was regimented and scheduled does not preclude students being passionate about learning it. And in many cases it's the best possible environment to learn.

There's a limit to the number of green cards that can be issued for people from a particular nationality (country of birth than country of citizenship). This creates a backlog for Indians and Chinese nationals. The backlog causes a long wait time and uncertainty for Indian nationals. There are people, like me, who have been waiting for their green card for more than 7 years. I've been in this country for 15 years now, have a Masters degree and have paid more than half a million in taxes (a couple of acquisitions helped). With equity, I make close to $400k/yr and could probably make more if I had a green card. I have substantial (north of $250k) savings in cash which I hesitate to invest here since I've no idea if I'll get my green card or be sent back. My spouse was finally allowed to work here due to Obama's H4 EAD rule but now that's going to be revoked too. It sucks, since my spouse wants to teach kids with special needs and there's significant demand for such teachers. If my green card doesn't come through in the next couple of years, I'll most likely move back to my home country or one of Canada/New Zealand.
Do you find anything odd about the timing of the release of this information, which so perfectly overlays with Trump's unverifiable charge and provides ammunition for reaching a conclusion such as yours?

I mean, now there's just enough "justification" to conclude that the illegal wiretap may have been done outside of any traceable process--just as you have done. So, Trump just may be right. How do we know?

There is an over-emphasis on what's possible vs. what the actual evidence says. That is the path to a post fact world wherein literally any conspiracy theory can now thrive. At the end of this path lies the complete obliteration of democracy.
> To this day, nobody believes I know anything I haven't done inside a for-profit company

I have this same issue. I'm a PM who has been trying to move into a dev role for some time. For 6 years now I've self-designed, developed, and published several reasonably polished mobile apps and games that have decent reviews, and even some press. Interviewers always thank me for my time and tell me they are impressed with my projects, but "unfortunately we are looking for candidates with professional experience".
That's the very definition of anecdotal, but yes, any programmer worth their salt should be able to program in any language. Many programmers however, aren't.
> However, Obama was under intense pressure not to appear to be acting politically.

Only to the extent that is typically the sitting president's responsibility to jump on board with the campaign rhetoric of his/her own party. The accusations about Russia put Obama in a delicate spot. If there had been evidence, his decision would have been easy, but in the absence of evidence he faced accusations of stoking fears about Russia to benefit his party.

But I think the line was crossed in the other direction when he imposed sanctions and evicted diplomats. For a president to do that weeks before a new administration takes over is abundantly petty and ought only be done if the new administration approves of it.

Doing so was far beneath Obama, and was akin to leaving an unflushed bowel movement in the oval office bathroom so Trump would find it on his first day. Obama did it only because he was under great pressure from his party to do so.
FWIW, the existential operator is not unique to CoffeeScript, e.g. I'm fairly certain Cobra had it before CoffeeScript was created.

If it is possible in ETH to build smart financial contracts but also encode state into the "wallet", such that reputation was earned or lost, then they really might have a winning strategy.

I have found that the source device often reveals more than expected with public figures. Here's Tim Cook's, for another example: https://saucetweet.com/?username=tim_cook There is a lack of tweets from a Mac compared to other device types (iPhone/iPad).

In the case of Trump, he only tweets from his Android, so all of the other tweets are done by his team. If you read through them side by side the difference is night and day in their intonation too.

This is all made easy by the fact that the 'source' is a publicly available part of the Twitter API:
"'source'	'String' : 'Utility used to post the Tweet, as an HTML-formatted string. Tweets from the Twitter website have a source value of web.'"

Apparently, this triggered Scotland to call another referendum to disolve the united kingdom[1].

Except multiple leaks have proven this isn't some crackpot conspiracy theory. Whether or not the NSA, CIA, or FBI were specifically targeting Trump, his communications, and ours, ARE intercepted and monitored.
This is great for a lot of things, but I find I suffer from "subscription fatigue" lately where I'm reluctant to sign up for anything new because the amount of subscriptions slowly gets out of control. It might work for netflix and other giants but I'm not sure if it's viable for smaller players.
No probably not sorry.

Is that really the way I sounded? Not intended that way at all. That is, not intended as a value judgement -- just an observation. If I sounded otherwise, I guess that why I didn't go into a career as a writer.

The point was, You either like what you are good at, and excel, or you hate it, but are good at it anyway, then it takes a lot more effort to excel. Or you get too locked into what you think you like (that happens to pay the bills pretty good), that you don't explore other areas that you might end up being good at. Then the world leaves you behind. (Kind of like getting a kid to try different foods -- you don't know what you may like until you try it, and sometimes you have to keep trying at it until you learn that you like it).
Depends on your country, in Canada at least they're stocked by our largest chain bookstore. They're quite readily available online just about anywhere though.

If Scotland were to have a referendum, and if they elected to leave the UK, would it be a possibility that, instead of Scotland leaving the UK, and then having to rejoin the EU, it was England, Wales, and Northern Island who left the UK, forming their own independent country, leaving Scotland as the "UK", and a member of the EU, and saving a lot of trouble for everyone?
And then he lied to the American people about the FREEDOM Act. Claimed it was some type of reform.
I think parent was referring to the "let's fund our NHS" idea... The one on the big bus.

In my opinion the referendum was too simple to mean much. So much about leaving was not known. When a concrete deal is proposed and the terms and consequences are more clear, I think the public should have another vote on whether that specific deal passes muster. Leave voters surely did not all intend "leave in any way possible no matter what the conditions".
I thought the joke was that they had interns write that? I remember an API that would hold onto completion blocks and call them repeatedly instead of just once. They would also accidentally make non backwardly compatible changes to the API.

They didn't care since that API period propelled them to more dominance and growth for awhile. After they shut down the viral channels, the developer ecosystem died...but it had proven its usefulness.

The only issue now is developers don't trust them and they can't get enough developers to build atop them.

How I think of it: its 1.9 Billion to upgrade the line and increase capacity. Say double capacity. You have to average that out over the life expectancy of the upgrade (20 years maybe, how long have the tracks been there now). Of course there are maintenance and operation fees, but the railway is probably paying those now.

So in construction costs:
1900000000 dollar /130000 riders /20 year = 700 $/rider/year.

It helps the economy of the city/state as more people can live and work there increasing you tax base. Helps housing smooth out housing prices a little as people can commute the same time from further out.

Also you have to compare against the cost of increasing road capacity.
Trains carry a lot of people and aren't subject to traffic like busses. Nobody likes taking the bus, it has a stigma for some reason.

Its expensive, but infrastructure always is. Oddly so in the US.
> Things didn't go how you wanted

They certainly didn't

I'm just yet to hear any arguments that, when dug into, aren't.

The least bad argument seems to devolve down to the conceit that "British experts are better than pan-European experts at making decisions", and the nicest thing you can say about that particular argument is "it's a misguided view of British primacy".
MSR's have a fail-safe design. One might still have a containment breach, but probably only through sabotage.
