As a counterpoint, my experience has been that this is only effective if you are looking for a position that is already in high demand. It's relatively easy to go to a meetup and meet other engineers who will recommend you at their company when it inevitably comes up that more engineers are needed on the team. In other positions like, say, marketing or finance, it just doesn't happen that way nearly as much. Postings will often get hundreds of applications within a few days and having a casual acquaintance from meetup-type groups is of little benefit compared to desirable brand names and keywords on your resume.
So IBM employees who refuse the company's formal request to colocate shouldn't be nervous about their status in the medium to long-term future?
Small iPad Pro is exactly the same size as this new iPad
Release v.1.0 was a complete breaking change (even from release candidates... the RCs were nothing like the final product). But I haven't experience that issue with minor version updates. For the most part they have been pretty smooth. A few of them I had to go in and manually fix some things in the AWS console but it hasn't been too bad.
This never happens, as there is a minimum time to create a "minimum viable work unit" and often you're paid to deliver as soon as possible, not a year later. I've never seen a contract with enough slack to make overlapping work reasonable.
It is not physically possible. Might only work if you're selling templates or are a Mechanical Turk.

Generally higher income is not much higher either way, at least around here. Nobody wants to hire contractors for more than they have to pay full time employees.

You still get to pay your health insurance (typically covered by employer automatically here) and taxes.
This is right. Lower risk, lower reward. You'll make some money, but won't share in most of the upside.

Up to you to decide which path you want to take. Depends what you want from life.
This is the correct answer. Mobility is more important than exercise. You'll lose mobility by breaking bones.

Yeah, exactly.

It seems to me that unless we decide that memories stored in digital media is subject to the same sorts of rights against intrusion from the state as memories stored in biological media, the scenario you describe is inevitable precisely because the line between these two types of memory will be increasingly blurred.

There is also a slightly less scary reason, which also applies to liquids: it is harder to fashion a bomb together and set it off when you can't touch it.

A half gallon of petrol sitting inside your fake laptop in the hold is no biggie. A half gallon of petrol in the cabin is a whole different ballgame.
You are sticking it to a monstrous bogeyman, even as you use an entirely unethical, toxic company. The two things aren't mutually exclusive.

The NYC taxi cartel, in particular, which routinely sees all the consumer-protection parts of its regulations broken with zero consequence, deserves to die.

(By this I don't just mean the part which says the cab isn't allowed to ask you where you're going and refuse you a fare if you're inconvenient, or any petty act of casual racism through which they similarly refuse a fare, or just avoid certain neighbourhoods. I mean that I've had actual coworkers who were actually briefly kidnapped by someone who was driving the taxi illegally with someone else's license, which is utterly routine.)
Oh! I've been trying to pin down the cause of this for a while, I'm glad you mentioned this, thank you.

There's nothing wrong with assert, that's what I use for checking conditions as well. The framework posted is just a thin facade on top of regular functions and asserts to provide fixtures, dynamic grouping and benchmarks. Knowing how long a specific set of tests take to run for N repetitions is useful information. Since I wrote the test, I know exactly how many times the tested API is called. This is about spotting problems and trends early, once I find something interesting I'll drop down to profiling.
I use Google Test, which integrates nicely with CLion and Jenkins.

Are you sure about that? I don't think warrants require you to assist the police in their search, you simply can't obstruct them, so they can't charge you with anything.
"Participants were recruited online through students’ contacts at a large Italian university. In Study 1a, the final sample consisted of 81 participants (37 males, Mage = 21.89 years, SD = 3.73). This sample was obtained after excluding participants who self-identified as non-heterosexuals (n = 9) or who had reported technical problems (n = 5) from the 95 participants who had completed the survey.

In Study 2a, participants were recruited through students’ contacts using a snowball procedure and provided with the link to an online survey. The final sample consisted of 63 participants (35 males and 28 females; Mage = 26.57 years, SD = 5.59). From the initial sample of 117 participants who had access to the survey, we excluded those who identified as non-heterosexual (n = 9), reported technical problems (n = 13), failed to complete the survey (n = 15), or did not correctly recall the job vacancy (n = 17).

In Study 2b, groups of students were tested simultaneously in the same room. Each participant individually completed an online survey using headphones. The final sample consisted of 92 participants (3 males and 89 females, Mage = 19.45 years, SD = 1.39). From the initial sample of 152 participants, we excluded those who identified as non-heterosexual (n = 8), reported technical problems (n = 15), or failed to correctly recall the job vacancy (n = 23)."

Mapping an open field fills in just as much paper as if you mapped a busy forest.

I'm not sure what the best way is to convey this idea since people naturally want to find things that are exciting.
It's a little ironic how contentious your tone is in this thread, considering that there were many outlets that didn't follow along with the mischaracterization of the ban that you have based your commenting on.

(I understand that you did see the 96 hour temporary ban in some reports; but even 14 hours ago there were reports not saying that, reports you accused other people of not reading, apparently without reading them yourself (the Bloomberg article didn't contain a time frame when I read it last night, nor the Reuters article I linked in my other reply))

> Now imagine you are getting twice as much after taxes for the same work but without benefits.

No, I wouldn't. I value stability and simplicity in my life, and I will gladly eschew higher pay for a more traditional lifestyle. I'm a conservative suburbanite with no ambition, and I'm proud of it.

On top of that, non-employer insurance is terrible. In some states, you actually cannot get a PPO unless you're on an employer's policy (I refuse to get an HMO for moral reasons), and large megacorps (we're talking Disney-sized corporations here) will package their own insurance and offer benefits that go above and beyond what you can get anywhere else.

> and the ability to work for multiple clients

That's a negative for me. I'm a strict 9-5er. I just want to show up at the office every weekday, put in my eight hours, then go home and relax. I actively do not want to run my own business or do anything that resembles negotiating with anyone. I'm not an entrepreneur or a risk-taker of any kind.
My comment wasn't meant to speak to the test of the federal register, under which a huge part of the everyday lives of Americans are federally prohibited.

I was more speaking to the question, "is it a crime?" IE, is it a crime in any sort of common-law sense and the proper purview of a government in a functionally free society.

In that sense, I do not believe that the wholesale fabrication of any form of media is a crime.
At least your policy is limited to software-related things. I need to ask permission to start a side gig selling shit on eBay, submit a fiction story to a writing contest, or even volunteer for mentoring/tutoring sessions (on any topic).

I didn't know the full extent before I started, but they threw more money at me than my wife and I have ever made combined, so I probably would have still taken it if I had known. Plus, I'm in NYC now.
I thought that was before and they didn't accept that anymore?
Of course no one literally thinks this, but I observe that many Americans have a tendency to like rich people, and give them the benefit of the doubt.

In a presidential election, for example.
i was expecting them to remove the real ball and him using the same actions.

we could replace the thrower by having a ball shaped drone thrown from an air cannon and it returns itself to the cannon, that way you pick up thrown objects or drones acting as objects on top of furniture.

If it was less than $130 then how would they justify $130 on their other devices (with nearly the same hardware)?
So if, for example, a person had illicit photos/documents in a safe, then the police couldn't ask them for the combination? Or if they gave the combination the evidence then retrieved would be inadmissible?

Surely it's the pre-existing evidence that [potentially] stands against the accused, not their "speech" that enables access to that evidence.

Who does such an interpretation of The Fifth protect?
Preventing High Blood Pressure
Ask HN: Why haven't Docker apps become mainstream?
I only have a limited practical experience in Docker but one of the foremost thing that it sells is running an application anywhere. The most immediate benefit that struck me with this was the ability to create software that can have hassle-free deployment anywhere.

Doesn't it make sense for people to create business around offering Docker apps on private servers? It could be related to analytics, monitoring, or content management. Although, cloud server will always be more convenient but there might be numerous reasons for businesses to choose the other.

But so far I haven't noticed anyone who has made a similar attempt. Is there a reason why this has happened yet? Am I missing something?
This is true of NetBSD and what I see repeated everywhere, but it's also an oversimplification that doesn't quite do it justice. As important as the end of portability is the modular (proper) architecture of the code base that provides this. "Code quality and correctness" is a stated feature of the OS, and by and large it is there.
Pretty sure from leaked XKEYSCORE rulesets, anyone who downloaded or googled "tails" is already on that list.
>Not a fan of the Midnight Commander-style of UI, but I'll give it a try since anything has got to be better than the mess that is the Finder these days

What exactly got worse in the Finder "these days"? I don't see anything that changed for the worse since OS X 10.2 If anything, current Finder is much improved in most aspects.

>One of my pet peeves with the Finder is that it still can't auto-layout the content to fit in the window - take a list view, open a folder .. and marvel at the fact that its the 21st century, but yet this list view still isn't capable of rendering itself for minimal-fit constraints.

Not sure what you mean, since the list view seems to work just fine.

> "Obscenity" is the thing that needs free speech protections the most.

Agreed.

I'm even of the mind that mere possession of any piece of media cannot be properly regarded as criminal, precisely because it interferes with the far more important right to free speech.

It seems to me that prohibiting the creation or sale of child porn is more appropriate.
I imagine for him the portability is required or he just hasn't tried it with a desktop :)

Wikipedia says 50% of profits generated by partner licensing. Still kind of vague.
Nice. I worked for an independent game studio once that wanted to own all IP for any sort of multimedia anything, since they were contract based and sometimes had to do other work besides just games if the client requested it.

Also they wanted IP rights for pretty much any ideas we had, including off company time, with the justification that we could come up with ideas to improve a game we were working on at any time, and also because the studio had a 'everyone can contribute to game design' mentality and we'd all be involved in design meetings from time to time. Which is technically true, but seemed so draconian.

I almost didn't take the job because of that clause, and I didn't publish anything during my time there. At least the people there were cool, though, and I still keep in touch with some of the people I worked with there, including the company president, who's actually a really nice guy.
Immediately googled "9.7 inch in cm" because it's hard to imagine size in proprietary units used in only one country. But then encountered "1 lb., 7.5 mm" on the website. That's unit trolling. They should've used megahartleys per decimal second for LTE speed.
It looks nice, but overkill for my application. For now I have no need for distributed systems, probably some concurrency in the near future.
Spring Boot and Context Handling
I'm not super knowledgeable about this so take this with a grain of salt. Some of this might be wrong.

Good modern touch screens, like the iPhone/iPad/Macbook trackpad are capacitive touch screens. An array of sensors emit a changing electric field which is affected by the dielectric constant of nearby materials, and fingers have a different dielectric constant from air. Capacitive sensors cannot detect pressure (although you can fake it a little).

Good modern digital pens, like the Wacom or Pencil, use radio waves. An array of antennas emits radio waves which are picked up by an antenna in the stylus. A microcontroller in the stylus computes the position and angle of the stylus, reads the pressure from another sensor in the stylus tip, and transmits the data back to the tablet over radio.

So you can see that they really are completely different technologies.

You can make a capacitive stylus, and those exist, you can even buy them at the store. However I've never seen a capacitive stylus that can detect pressure or angle at all, and capacitive sensors can't tell the difference between a stylus and your hand, so you can forget about resting your hand on the screen when you draw. The main reason I'd use a capacitive stylus is because I want to use an iPhone or iPad while I'm wearing gloves.
I know this is meant as a motivational/instructional article for finding a career, but I found this says more about Greece's economy than anything else. The motivating part for me, is that here (in Canada) things aren't nearly as bad as they are in Greece. All my close peers (in Canada, States) never had to persevere as hard as this author did in order to find a job. Even a job like his.
What I find a bit odd is that this is ostensibly about becoming more innovative.

But does anyone really believe that major strategic business and product innovation occurs at the level of the individual contributors and teams who will be affected by this change?

I mean, sure, cool new features happen at that level, but you can't tell me the iPhone would've fallen out of a "water cooler" conversation between a couple of C++ devs on a Wednesday afternoon in the office.
A theory among some employees is that IBM is using co-location as a downsizing effort.

I hope it's not an accurate theory. Downsizing this way means your most self-motivated, productive employees are likely to leave long before those who drive to the office because they feel they have no other choice.

Like Best Buy and Yahoo at the points at which they decided to co-locate, IBM is a business that needs to do something new.

Our businesses are shrinking, so let's try something new: make our employees less productive.

Despite the positive spin the writer puts on the plan, to me it seems like the death throes of past-their-prime companies.

And based on what others have said in these comments, the change is mostly affecting marketing employees.

I'd say co-location is a pet tactic of the writer, without any real evidence that remote work is anything but progress.

If a job can be done remotely, it should be done remotely.
Tesla Model S P100D quarter-mile record broken again on the same day: 10.638
>Because it's missing everything and seems like a new phone?

Yes. Remember, they don't need proof of anything. You're not on trial. It's largely up to the judgment of the individual officer whether or not someone can enter the US as a visitor.

If they ask you why there's nothing on your phone, you'd better be able to convince them that it's for some other reason than "I don't want you to see it". Can you do that? Well, it depends on how persuasive you are and whether the officer is in a good mood that day.
The fear of battery degradation is way way overblown. You'll drive at least a few hundred thousand miles before you might "need" to replace it [1]. And even then, you could keep going.

I'm not so confused about the legality here as much as I don't understand why they need the files at all if they have irrefutable evidence that he has them.

If I have sales receipts and camera footage showing you purchased 100 Led Zeppelin CDs, do I need to see the CDs in person before I know you have good taste in music?

I'm guessing this has something to do with the subtleties of admissible evidence versus 4th amendment stuff.
Clips
Sometimes I just go with it because of how unenforceable that contract will be for them and how Ill get paid in the meantime laughing silently to myself at the absurdity
Most of the arguments against contracting, so far as of this timestamp, seem to boil down to anecdotal "I've got mine so who cares about everyone else" with a side dish of if I can imagine how in a utopia idealized employment could be for everyone, and if that imaginary "could be" employment is superior to how contracting actually is in reality, then its proven with no need to implement it for any individual or entire culture that employment is better, because being better in theory trumps how it is in reality.

Is there any stronger argument in opposition than "I got mine..." or "In a utopia..." ?

The real question is how expensive they are. The US has les protections but thus pays a lot more. Soft engineers moving from SF to europe get their income cut by more than 50%. In the end, more europeans move to the Us that the other way around, showing ultimately what the body prefers.
> The collective marketing outlay by Gap, Apple and Motorola for the Red campaign has been enormous, with some estimates as high as $100 million.

Even ignoring the weasely "some estimates", that's counting advertising by these companies. They advertise mostly to increase their own sales. That budget was never available to charity.
It won't, though. Way too inconvenient for most people.

On Safari your google/facebook login options aren't working either. App itself looks very promising though :)
Are they enforceable?

I am no lawyer, but I don't expect that under EU work law anything done outside work can be forbidden in the work contract, in any member country.

The only issue I see from law point of view, is if whatever is being done, in terms of private projects, is related to knowledge acquired during the work activities, sometimes under NDA. Here yes, there can be issues.

Now if the projects are done in technology stacks or business domains completely different from what happens at work, then it isn't enforceable.

However I am no lawyer.
The article assumes that there won't be a spike in oil prices (we don't know).

It's also strongly underestimating China, which is the main producer and consumer of electric cars (also, if they decide to do something about pollution, this might shift dramatically).

I do agree that oil demand will remain strong.

China is the #1 producer and buyer of electric cars.

It's still 1/300th of all cars sold, so it's not mainstream, but the tremendous growth is there (see the graph on the first article). It's actually the U.S. that's lagging behind.

The posted approach clocks in at 300 lines of C, and comes with the freedom to add whatever features you want. Testing is as fundamental as it gets; and unless you're aiming to write the One True Testing Framework, it's at most a days work to get one up and running. Google Test and Boost Unit try to hard to be everything for everyone, which makes them too complex; while failing to add anything that was missing from plain functions and asserts.
