indeed, if the commits are individually reviewable it is nicer. To the contrary however often these small commits can be a bit messy. Sometimes you'll find commits that are reverted later on, or fixed up later on. I.e. for commit-level review to work well, it's great if the history was polished.
Closer and closer? How about it's already happened.

I just visited some of my friends in Japan, many of whom wanted to visit me in the US once their children got a bit older, and they all said they are straight up frightened of simply trying to enter the US. These are some of the most upstanding people you can meet with jobs like being teachers, government employees, etc. They are the last people who should be afraid of being found as suspicious persons, yet the reality is that based on what they see in the news, I can't blame them.
Low-bandwidth is something of an understatement, especially when we consider activities like language acquisition, where smell, taste and proprioception play little part. Are the advantages of the dimensionality of this case sufficient to rescue the author's assertion that the embodiment problem requires robotics for its solution? Note that he used vision in his examples.

It occurred to me later that one can argue that Helen Keller, like the rest of us, was born with a brain shaped by hundreds of millions of years of interacting with the environment. I do not doubt that interaction is probably an essential part of us getting to AI, but I doubt that physical embodiment is the only way to do it.
I work on distributed systems and have started pushing for us to use TLA+/PlusCal to model them. I have a simple PlusCal model of a system with two threads which juggles network and disk I/O which I can e-mail you if you like. It's not at all a complex system, but I think it captures the basics of modeling concurrency and I/O well.
Louis CK edits his show on a MacBook. I don't know if you consider that serious, but it's a pretty good show.
It's awful. I know plenty of straight guys who have a "gay-sounding" voice, and I'm gay but people tell me I sound "straight", which at least in my experience means this is all complete nonsense.

What they really mean is that if someone thinks you're gay or lesbian then you're likely to suffer from homophobic discrimination.

While a reminder of that is probably useful for the world at large, it's not new to anybody who identifies outside the straight cisgender categories. Or actually, anybody who is straight and cis who somebody has decided "looks gay".
The reason people are most upset is because of how widespread theft from baggage is. In many of the destinations you need a gulf carrier to connect you do, you don't want to put a $1000+ device in a checked bag.

I guess you could do the crazy plastic bag warp thing. But that doesn't answer the question of your things being stolen in the USA, which seems even more likely due to the people on the line knowing the value of the things in your pack.

Maybe it's time for a kickstarter for an accelerometer/wifi network logger/audio recorder/camera that all activate when the bag is open so you can receive audio and video of the person stealing your things.
Funny... I dumped Catch after a couple of days due to the terrible build times ;)

The fact it took over my programs' command line options and wouldn't give 'em back didn't help either. (Many of my tests are data-driven and use command line options to indicate where to read the data from - I already have a library to handle this! I didn't see - and still don't - why a test framework should be getting involved.)

It's flagrantly misleading to claim that "being black is worth [x]" when this scale is dated and explicitly prohibited from use after Gratz v. Bollinger (2003).

Yale Climate Opinion Maps – How Americans Think about Climate Change (2016)
Yeah but in Dredd Scott the Supreme Court did a massive backpedal on blacks rights, overturning state law that favored them. The question is the same. Back then they argued Over whether a black person is a person. Today they argue over whether a foetus is a person.

My question is why should 5 unelected people decide the answer for a nation? I say let states decide for themselves. The reason is people feel very strongly about their opinions, and I think forcing your opinion of what is right on many people is a bad place to be.

This.

And even your willing to exercise changes during live. It was easier and fun to exercise when was a teenager and so on. Become lot less when gained almost 40 pounds in a month due to medication. Become even less interesting when would get hurt for exercising while overweight. Become a no-go when got a muscle strain for simply going downstairs because a physiotherapist pushed a bit too much and was under muscular fatigue.

I'd prefer to take a bath and have some benefits that fell all that pain again and immobilize my leg and loose what I've earned in the past 4 months.

For those who already like to exercise (or are willing to despite saying "I don't like, just like the benefits", or any kind of wording of this idea), well, this study won't make a difference.

For me, yes, it makes.
especially with very small commits, I find small commits to be tedious and error prone (sometimes the software doesn't even build because the developer distributed two not-so-independent changes over two commits because the connection wasn't so obvious. Then you have a failed build and you don't really know if `git bisect` just beamed you into the middle of a refactoring, or whether there is an actual issue.
I couldn't care less about IP myself - but the real reason this stuff is pretty standard is that investors are somehow really bullish about IP (the "secret sauce"). Against our own beliefs, we decided for pretty strict contract terms around IP as this topic usually turns out to be one of the standard blockers in any funding and exit negotiations. In former companies, after a financing round people had to sign new terms and that can get pretty complicated.

That's the real reason things are pretty messed up all around protecting IP.

As we've survived without funding so far, we're thinking of relaxing this as well. Kudos to GitHub's investors for staying away from this nonsense.

I wonder if there is study into biases around cultural interests too, e.g. if a male applies for a leadership position and lists "dance" as his primary hobby or interest, whether implicit cultural biases or assumptions play a role as well.
The xkcd What If? on tug-of-war is also interesting: https://what-if.xkcd.com/127/
The difference is whether or not this scenario can happen: you put in some money, get out much more than you put in, and end up far better off than you were before.

With insurance, only the first two parts can happen. The third part can't happen, because the second part only happens to compensate you for a loss. When gambling, all three can happen. Of course, on average it won't, but it's possible to put in a dollar and get out a million dollars with no losses besides the dollar and a little bit of time.

It is sometimes possible to arrange all three with constructs we call "insurance," like taking out a life insurance policy on someone you don't like, but my argument is that this is where we start to see insurance as "wrong" too.
The food robots are upon us
The standard model provides a set of postulates that could be used for prediction of possible composite particles, their masses, and decay times.

However it is computationally infeasible to calculate them directly, without using various approximations. Physicists try to solve these problems numerically (see for example about the field called lattice QCD), but it is not always possible and leads to introducing various approximations that produce errors and other artifacts in the numerical predictions.

So the particles were allowed by the standard model, but we didn't know for sure their properties. So this provides way to verify already done numerical predictions (I don't really know were they be done for this exact particles or not) and give us data about exact properties of these particles.

One could possibly draw an analogy with (quantum) chemistry here.
It has got a little confusing over the years but today doesn't add any further complexity and makes things a bit better, it just replaces the iPad Air which I think was badly named to begin with and should have just been called iPad like it was before.

But kind of it was also the tooling. Most svn projects I worked on were trunk-based and thus integrated much tighter than git feature-branch based code. However, the times I merged subversion branches, I kind of was sure that subversion lost some changes.
Woah, yeah I think this is a solid approach. You can remove all distractions and just work on the one page and focus on only the task at hand rather than worrying about dealing with your own setup and can be accessed anywhere.
So you got sued and lost it?

Plenty of drugs have much worse efficacy and "numbers needed to treat" figures than exercise.

Help me understand this test that they did.

So, they have taken a group of homosexuals, without any history of leadership, and asked a group to rate how they would do as CEO based on voice only. The group answered based on sound alone that those individuals were not CEO material.

Well, I wouldn't pass as a CEO either and I don't have a, I quote, "‘gay- sounding’ voice".

The leaders I have know -- both male and female -- had huge charismatic voices. They had presence. They spoke in a room full of people and their voice would pick up. They would get attention right away.

How is the lack of this voice linked to discrimination against the gay community?

For this study to have any values in my eyes they would need to test actual CEOs. Actual people in leadership positions.
I know right? People look for things that confirm their own biases ("X Y and Z are gay and they sound like this"). Oh, and I wasn't having a go at the study, even if it is a little ropey, just bewildered that people still think in that way. Like people thinking that if you're black you probably talk a certain way, or like certain music.
> "I'd wager BDFL prefers the CPython implementation because it's probably simpler. Also, it supports tons of targets and is super simple to build."

You're doing good wagering, Guido mentioned just this at several keynotes (source: skim through his PyCon/EuroPython keynotes, there's a good chance he addresses the point or answers a question about it). I'd paraphrase him with: although now a big project with optimizations here and there obscuring the purpose of many parts, CPython remains a boring well-understood "no rocket science" C project. As an example of this, I remember him mentioning how the opcode dispatcher remains a giant `switch` statement rather than something more intricate.

That doesn't mean he dislikes or wants to hinder PyPy (or IronPython or Jython or Pyston or ...), just that he's fine with CPython reach and trade-offs as the "default python", and if you prefer another Python with different performance/compatibility/featureset/xyz characteristics, you're welcome to grab it :)

Where the policies are simple, I try and do that, but sometimes there can be complex ARNs etc. that will take too many words to try and explain, or might distract from the pace of the tutorial itself.

It is actually quicker to point to one of the built in or pre-made AWS policies, which are usually fairly generic.

data. While they don't artificially limit how much data you can use, you are always limited by your speed.

Yes, your data is unlimited but but your speed of 128k limit how much you can actually use.
In this case, after a short chat with their online reps they offer 2-5 mbits. At 5 mbits this translates to roughly 1.6 Terabytes of data over 30 day period.

Don't get me wrong, what they are doing seems great! I just wish they would show their speeds upfront and the download/upload ratio.

Adopting and porting to .NET Core will become a ton easier, later this year. .NET Core 2.0 will add a ton of .NET Framework APIs.

These APIs are almost entirely coming from .NET Standard 2.0. See the jump in APIs in this table[1].

We often get asked if this is going against the promise of a light-weight development platform. Answer: not really. The new APIs are not being added to a single library, but several, including new ones. We will be updating our publishing tools to make it easier publish apps w/only the libraries you need. We are also looking at going one step further, which is publishing only the IL you need (intra-assembly optimization).

I am spending the week presenting at two Microsoft conferences in Europe (Milan, Amsterdam). I heard very similar feedback on EF yesterday in Milan. I will be passing this off to the EF team.

FYI: I'm a .NET Core team member.

That's part of what I'm disappointed about today: no RAM bump for the 9.7 Pro, and not clear whether the plain iPad is at 1 GB or 2.
The pencil is what will probably push me into buying my first iPad. I've only played with it in the store, but Apple has done something pretty amazing with respect to palm rejection.

I haven't really looked yet, but if there's an art class app that guides you through drawing exercises, I think I would take the leap.
It's fine because it's an ephemeral value in a docker container, put there during provisioning by ansible where it was pulled from a properly encrypted vault. Kubernetes can totally manage that for you so you can finally go serverless.
> Many people assume that if you have a lot of money, you must be a good person.

I used to agree with that, but now politics has cleaved this into two.

A) If you're a democrat/progressive (Soros, Hillary, et al.) you're corrupt, greedy, immoral. And you got all that money via ill means. They must be stupid and anti-American be

B) If you're a republican (Trump, Murdoch, Ted Stevens, et al.) your earned it from picking up yourself by your bootstraps, the American Dream. And they must be smart people, they have lots of money!

And vice-versa.

As an aside, I'm increasingly seeing spammy "Soros is an anti-american progressive socialist communist" comments on other low quality forums. Which is interesting considering his investments, wealth, views on Russian, path to citizenship, and interest in helping economies move away from communism into capitalism. Post-truth, I guess.
They're consolidating their lineup and dropping the price. The iPad Air is no more. Now there's just an iPad in one size, and an iPad Pro in two sizes. I think the iPad mini is still around but I don't imagine for much longer.

Runnable announces Kubernetes Integration
Hmm... I believe there may be a distinction here. Decrypting to the false virtual contents would be more like presenting a copy of the bank records that were correct, but the file had been corrupted and the data was unusable. However, the corrupted but true records had been created before the subpoena (not trying to obstruct) and were handed over in good faith.

You wanted the contents of this drive? Here they are!

The owner of the drive is definitely in a legal and moral grey area, but it would be supremely difficult to prove mens rea in this case.

Interesting thought experiment: What happens when someone fills a hard drive with junk data and then encrypts it, then gets subpoena'd for the unencrypted contents of the drive?
