That's what I was confused about. This is almost exactly LaTeX. The major difference is no "\". And it adds unneeded \left, \right, and just braces everywhere.

The biggest differences is in this example, I looked at all of them:

f'(x) = lim_{h -> 0} {f(x+h) - f(x)}/h

vs

f'(x) = \lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}

While the code it produces is way more than needed. See [1] for the crap it produces.

The key differences here are "\", "->" instead of "\to" (which \to makes more sense to me), and "/" instead of "\frac{}{}" (which I'll give to Mathify). But because LaTeX supports a lot more there is no question which one is actually easier.

[1] {f'{ \left( x \right) } = \lim _{{h \to 0}} \frac{{f{ \left( x+h \right) } - f{ \left( x \right) }}}{h}}

I agree 100%. I'm beginning to feel a lot of 'developers' live in a circle jerk where they share about how awesome they are and other developers tell them how awesome they are, unless it makes the other 'geniuses', what many above-average intelligent people in my generation are told from a young age, feel too inferior.

Hubris is a real observable phenomenon in the history of economic bubbles, paradigm shifts in scientific/technologic progress, and in recent events in media, politics, and business.

We need to start questioning business-as-usual as much as possible. Everything can be simpler, less egocentric, and more beneficial to all parties.
I feel as if perhaps if you can compare linus and Terry then you perhaps haven't thought the matter all the way through.

In the first place mental and social stability are not only helpful but absolutely essential in any endeavor requiring sustained effort and cooperation from more than one party. A multitude are involved either directly in linux or in projects that depend on same whereas TempleOS is a one man show not just in terms of development but even in terms of usage since if I recall correctly it doesn't do networking. Every user is figuratively an island.

Further it ought to be obvious that there is a substantial difference between Linus sometimes being an asshole and a mental disorder which often leaves the sufferer incapable of meaningfully connecting to reality or the rest of humanity let alone contributing.

Look at Terry he obviously possesses intelligence but it mainly serves to provide a diversion while he wastes his life away between racist paranoid rants on the internet.

If anything his existence is an example of a waste, a waste of everyone else's time and especially a waste of terry who of all people can't get away from himself nor effect his own cure. We do need better ways in the future to help people like terry but we do not need silly equivocation.
Many companies have too many engineers (and some not enough). This is mainly due to #engineers = f1(revenue || vc money) while it should be #engineers = f2(problem). Mostly because our industry has no clue about f2 and so falls back to f1.

But this also works with business thinking, e.g. CEO thinking

techbudget = 0.1 * revenue

With the law of the used budget (all people always use up their budget of fear to not get the budget next year when they might need it), CTOs use the whole budget

#engineers = techbudget/salary

so f1 is often

#engineers = f1(revenue) = (revenue * 0.X - hosting - laptops - licenses)/ salary

and with salary >> hosting, salary >> laptops, licenses -> 0 due to open source usage,

f1(revenue) = revenue * 0.X / engineer salary

(the 0.X is determined by VC experience/push, negotiation between CEO and CTO, how much of a tech company the CEO sees his company or from his previous experience, most probably on a wholly different tech business model).

with no need to understand the tech challenge at hand.

For startups and high margin tech business, there is often a large tech budget, so many engineers are hired (also other forces like capability building, war of talents etc. - some startup CEO tell me their VC said they need to hire 100 engineers until the end of the year - this is without knowing anything about the tech problem at hand).

Coming to your point:

If there are too many engineers for the essential complexity they create accidental complexity.
Top 20 MCQ Questions on CSS3 Element Selectors – InfoTechSite
The trendy way to approach the problem these days is to throw massive amounts of data at a deep learning model and let the model try to learn the rules. And my irony detector can't help but squalk out the famous minsky koan:

"What are you doing?", asked Minsky.
"I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-tac-toe", Sussman replied.
"Why is the net wired randomly?", asked Minsky.
"I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play", Sussman said.

Minsky then shut his eyes.
"Why do you close your eyes?" Sussman asked his teacher.
"So that the room will be empty."
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Machine Learning has its use cases, that's for sure, but I can't help but laugh at the person who eschews a well understood model of a well understood system by an experienced and trained expert human in favor of a magic black box that at its best might converge on the expert's understanding after enough time and data. There is no shame in building off of what is already known and understood.

The primary difficulty is that JNI is really limited on Android. It exists, but it's really slow, and there are some hard limits imposed at the kernel level.

An alternative approach is VOC (http://pybee.org/voc) - this is compiler that takes Python code, and output Java bytecode. This means you can use the Android native UI components, because your Python code becomes indistinguishable from code written in Java. Combine with Briefcase (http://pybee.org/briefcase), and you can get an Android app with one command; combine with Toga (http://pybee.org/toga), and you can get a cross platform app using native system components.

Cap'n Proto by its nature is doing a lot of work with integers that represent sizes, indices, offsets, addresses, etc. These tend to have well-defined ranges -- and unusually bad failure modes. So it works unusually well here.
Not really. Most systems run extra buses/trains/etc during the morning and evening rush hour. This is true even in smallish US cities that have lackluster service.

It's certainly possible that public transit is still crowded despite this, but I've never heard of anywhere that doesn't even try to scale to match demand.

This works for a lot of stuff. If you are only giving one input it'll work. So things like "\sin x", "x^2" \frac12" work. Interestingly you need a space in the sin example but not in the others. But "x^12" is the same as "x^{1} 2". So be careful with the shortcut.
When considering soft things like conversational flow, try not to get too focused on the use of any one particular word. Look to the intent behind the phrase. "Wow, that sounds hard" is fundamentally 1) an expression of genuine acknowledgement, and 2) an opening to learn more about what is clearly important to the person you're talking to.

The skill is in finding something about your partner that you can say these things honestly about. You do that, and whatever actual words you use to express it don't really matter that much. The emotional intent behind your words will ring clear.

I don't think that many people would consider 7AM to 6PM a reasonable expectation of work unless you're in the game development industry (and even then not reasonable, just expected).

I get that it might be amusing for you when people complain about an overtime that's three hours less than your total workday, but it really is quite unnatural for someone to work for that long. Spending 70% of your waking hours at work is not something to be proud of.

The rest is quite good to hear as an anecdote, however. It's great to hear about teams that socialize in a way that doesn't involve beer, pingpong, or partying. Strange sort of frat culture that we live in.
I've not used it, but afaik Suse linux default install have btrfs+snapper (http://snapper.io) It snapshots before every install and yast configuraton step and have a boot to snapshot feature..
In the general case what you would do is one of these:

1. Increase the size of the data you're operating on so you get more compute per context switch. I.e. you amortize the latency over more data or in other words you trade off latency for throughput. If you're dealing with your local disk e.g. you fread() 100MB instead of 1MB.

2. Rearrange your software. If you have many threads each reading small chunks and operating on them you rearrange the data and your threads such that you perhaps have some threads doing I/O while other threads doing computation. Other rearrangements include moving some of your code into the kernel or alternatively moving pieces from the kernel into user mode to reduce the "depth" of the stack. (RTOS or getting rid of the OS are more extreme examples of "rearranging")

3. Use different hardware, e.g. historically DSP vs. general purpose CPUs.

What I'm trying to say, apparently not very clearly, is that I see this as an engineering problem, not a fundamental problem, and an old problem, not a new problem. It's hard to talk about this though without a concrete example.

Instruction level parallelism is in nanoseconds, not microseconds, a 2GHz CPU can execute 10000-ish ops across all its execution units in a microsecond. So that's not a bottleneck in processing things that are on the order of microseconds. As long as what you're switching every microsecond is "small" you can perform many concurrent tasks at microsecond blocks. If you need to flush all your caches and remap all your memory then that will be a problem. But caches have a certain latency because they are very close to the CPU and they are sized under similar constraints. This is where it's up to us to engineer the right solution under the constraints.

If you need microsecond latency on your processing, let's say you want to do real-time processing on 1000 video conference channels and you never want to introduce more than 1ms delay, then you need to engineer your system differently than a system that doesn't have that sort of requirement. That's always been the case. If the expectation is that you'll run 1000 Linux processes that read and write the video from disk and this will just somehow work then that's not going to happen. It seems we're trying to "backsplain" why something that wasn't designed to be a real time system isn't behaving like a real time system. Linux is a general purpose OS built for certain tasks and the CPUs we tend to run it on are also built for certain tasks. But there are other OSes and other CPUs (or FPGA or ASICs or GPUs). Not to say there isn't a lot of flexibility in Linux on x86 for different situations.

Oh, for some reason I thought Clang's sanitizers were strictly compile-time, but looking closer I see that's not correct. Hmm, will have to look closer at that.
I believe OP was referring to price discrimination and not supply/demand. e.g., as if Amazon raised all wound care products instantly for you after you made a search for "band aids."

A grocery store with e-ink prices could raise the prices for bottled water instantly after a natural disaster.
You're right, in that there are some people that are minefields. But I do think most people who aren't natural conversationalists greatly overestimate their number. Most folks genuinely want to connect, and it only takes the slightest of pushes to break the ice. Extrovert, introvert... It doesn't really matter, in terms of short-length discussion. People are people.

I can tell you from experience Termux works mostly very well on Chromebooks which come with the Play Store. Gives a nice option to putting the device in developer mode and installing Crouton.

The one main problem involves shortcut keys. Chrome OS intercepts certain key presses, such as "CTRL N" or "CTRL T", and routes them to the browser. Makes emacs / vim a little annoying, but a Chrome OS dev assured me this was on the "to fix" list.

One ongoing use of payphones: people with cheap, pay-by-the-minute cell phone plans calling toll-free numbers for utilities, banks, etc. so they don't have to use up their airtime while they're on hold.

There's a ton of abuse on YouTube.

The content is generally made for an older public, that's how YouTube started and that's what the content is for

The problem isn't YouTube per se, it's our understanding of it, and as a result, the laws we bring forth to try and manage it.

It's like sending your kids down to buy something from a corner shop or when you send them to school on their own. It's we the adults that make sure they know better than to talk to strangers.

I think thoigh the street metaphor isn't too accurate, since a normal corner stop wont have hookers and dirty magazine pedlers trying to get your kid off for a buck. The Internet does though, and it'll be an interesting problem to solve, without destroying the mechanisms that allow innovation.

I think most people here anyone are aware of this, wbut do we really know how deep the rabbit hole goes?

I'm not sure it's necessarily related to why it doesn't have a paywall (I don't think bloomberg news is opposed to money), but Bloomberg the company started selling computer terminals on wall street in the 80s and made a fortune. Basically, "Hey stock broker, how'd you like to look up stock quotes instantly on a computer instead of..." I'm actually not sure what they were doing before, paper trading slips I guess? "Sort it out at the end of the day"?

"Selling networked computers to banks" wasn't actually as obvious then as you'd think. Wall Street was a relatively boring place and went crazy in the 80s, kind of coinciding with the rise of Bloomberg terminals.

These days, a bloomberg terminal costs $24,000 a year, for a computer and a subscription to Bloomberg's information service, which ostensibly gets high quality and timely market information. It's a good business.

Bloomberg is a really interesting startup story overall.

Attractive is not physical appearance or good looks. Attractive is a culmination of all the factors that can be observed or known that will give a positive impression.

It is usually much more important to carry yourself as attractive than to be beautiful. Confidence, honesty, friendliness, integrity, etc all can be assumed by a picture of a beautiful person, but in practice it's body language that portrays these qualities better. In addition, things like humor and other tips in the article can control someone's impression much more than looks.

Make yourself hot if you want. But if you're still insecure or unhappy inside, it's going to come off as unattractive. (Unless you then act more alpha as a defense mechanism to this... Behavior is complicated)
