> In 2007, Tarantino discussed an idea for a type of Spaghetti Western set in the United States' pre-Civil War Deep South. He called this type of film "a southern", stating that he wanted "to do movies that deal with America's horrible past with slavery and stuff but do them like spaghetti westerns, not like big issue movies. I want to do them like they're genre films, but they deal with everything that America has never dealt with because it's ashamed of it, and other countries don't really deal with because they don't feel they have the right to."[3] Tarantino later explained the genesis of the idea: "I was writing a book about Sergio Corbucci when I came up with a way to tell the story. ... I was writing about how his movies have this evil Wild West, a horrible Wild West. It was surreal, it dealt a lot with fascism. So I'm writing this whole piece on this, and I'm thinking: 'I don't really know if Sergio was thinking [this] while he was doing this. But I know I'm thinking it now. And I can do it!' "[4]

Most of the problems with binging new digital ASICs to market have to do with the failure of -XRay-Lithography- EUV (now called Extreme UV) to provide fast enough exposures despite decades of development and billions in research investment. This is a hard problem, but quadruple patterning is also nasty and expensive at 7nm. Even if you can identify the error... if you can't make almost every one of a couple billion transistors correctly, you can't make a modern CPU.

Pick up and typical math text and you can find an index of notation in the frontmatter or appendices.

All these complaints about mathematical notation seem really uninspired to me. It's like if I went around complaining that programming shouldn't require all this horribly baroque textual input.

You may or may not have a point , but either way it's certainly not one that's helping you at all.

If you find yourself frustrated at a seemingly nasty piece of notation, often this is a (helpful!) signal that you're not fully grokking things. Make use of that confused feeling to dig deeper.

Admittedly, compared to programming there are considerably fewer online resources for hacking together some maths knowledge. However, in book form there absolutely are tons of excellent materials!

Pick a subject, Google around for text recommendations, and then go raid your local university's library. There are even pretty good IRC channels for various math subjects! Try hitting up #math on freenode.

iOS 10.3 with APFS has been in public and developer beta for several months - it's up to beta 7 right now in fact. If this were as vast a problem as Micheal Tsai presents in this post, wouldn't we (the devs and beta testers) be running in to this a lot?

Given how loudly the tech press proclaims any perceived mis-step by Apple, I'd have to believe we'd have been reading tons of 'Apple is Doooooooomed' articles about this by now. Given that this hasn't happened, and I haven't seen similar problem reports on dev forums and other hangouts, I'd lean towards there being some miscommunication or misunderstanding here.

It's a good idea until you end up with two files that have the "same" name (eg. Amélie.jpg and Amélie.jpg) because one uses decomposed characters (U+0065 and U+0301) and the other one uses a single character (U+00E9).

If the difference is not visible in your browser (it shouldn't), try copy-pasting those two filenames in a text editor, one of them is 10 characters long and one of them is 11 characters long.

Early 20th cen farming jobs were made redundant by machinery and artificial fertilizer. They didn't see it coming! Oversupply led to all sorts of adverse consequences--worldwide depression probably being the least of them given that much of the pre-WWII build-up was embarked upon as stimulus for broken economies.

Old school automation (human-written programs and robots) has had just as large an effect on manufacturing--it's just that the transition has been smoother. International corporations are much better at preparing for change. They see these things coming, then merge/consolidate/cross-license/etc and adjust production to stay out of a race to the bottom.

For example, we have a single artificial sweetener plant here that produces enough to supply the entire world. They have a second facility in Thailand, though it's mostly there for redundancy/logistics/currency reasons, and this is just one example of many! Same can be said for most feedstocks and components, and even for some finished products.

If this is going to be the level of AI-preparedness for the next 4 yrs--especially when huge swaths of the interior have been employment dead-zones for over a decade now--deep learning is going to put us in even deeper shit.

Horses for courses.

If you're writing a tea timer perhaps chromium isn't the right tool for the job. I'd certainly be the first to agree and the author highlights this too. If your tiny application doesn't add much functionality, I'd even suggest that a multi platform solution isn't necessary.

However, if you are writing a full featured desktop application, it starts to become a sensible option.
Depends on which areas you're talking about specifically, but many major US airports did start that way. Lots of neighborhoods have grown into the flight paths, not the other way around.

Why don't we keep it that way and protect bigger industrial boundaries around airports? I don't know, but it doesn't seem very realistic; it's too much prime land to control. Commercially zoned areas in every major metropolitan area have been approached, crowded, re-zoned or overtaken by residential development.
Actually it's the Secret Service that tracks money laundering. Contrary to popular belief, that is actually their main job -- protecting the currency of the United States. Protecting the President is just their side job.

Considering I've had jobs that only tell me after my first day there that the health insurance wouldn't kick in for 2 months which would trigger the aca fine at that point, I don't think this was an unreasonable request. The person appeared polite in the email based on what's shown in the article here. Personally I wouldn't be insulted if a candidate was completely to the point in an opening question like this.

If employers can just post a list of required skills in a matter of fact manner, why can't a prospective employee act the same way for their requirements?

Edit:Additionally, your problem with the companies reaction is that they told her their reason? That would be the only positive mark for them in my book. That sort of view would imply discriminating against employees for any sort of illegal or immoral reason would be fine as long as they kept quiet about it
I think that would have more to do with the applications themselves as opposed to anything intrinsic to Delphi. I've used plenty of applications written in Delphi and they've worked fine. Skype for Windows was written with Delphi (and maybe still is).

This feels in some sense like punting the problem. What exactly should the presentation layer do when presenting two files, where the first is named with a precomposed character sequence, and the other has the same name but decomposed? Surface the normalization form the user? Uh, no...

The more fundamental question is whether filenames are under control of the user or the system. The answer today is "both": there's blessed paths /System/Library... and non-blessed paths like ~/Documents/Pokemon.txt. Addressing this properly means reifying that distinction: making apps always be explicit about whether they're working with the user's or the filesystem's view of a file.

While we're here, why the should the user even have to name every file? Do you name every piece of junk mail on your desk/kitchen island?

The ideal for the user is something like tagging, where naming stuff is optional, names are forgiving and perhaps not unique, and files are not restricted to being in one directory. Meanwhile, filesystem names are an implementation detail and the filesystem enjoys Unicode ignorance. Spotlight moved a bit in this direction, but the end goal is still awfully far away.

However this doesn't mean users don't appreciate native widgets and UI consistency. In fact, this is a common complaint for windows, something that Microsoft is currently working on (at what ever pace)

Microsoft is firmly in the backwards compatibility at all costs camp - something which I definitely appreciate. This however comes at a cost and your example is one of them. I'm not suggesting this is not avoidable, but the complexity should not be understated.

Surviving the New MacBook Pro
I have version N of a struct and then having version N+1 of a struct in-flight at the same time is almost impossible with current statically typed languages. In a dynamically typed language, as long as the contents of version N+k struct are additive and don't change the semantics, old code can read new data.

What needs to happen is both, immutable code, and versioned structs with pure functions that can upgrade and possibly downgrade structs as needed. The larger the distributed system, the versions of a struct (message) will be in-flight at a time. Services need to contain no state, so that they can be micro-rebooted and brought up with the new version.

Joe Armstrong had a comment on globally accessible but immutable code, which I think would go a long way towards the ability to statically type the inputs to a function in a distributed system. Interposition and routing would be the only way to upgrade or deprecate old code paths.

The same goes for case-sensitivity which, unfortunately, they see as a defect. It would be great for portability if APFS would stay case-insensitive like the Unix file systems, e.g. just a dumb layer that reads/writes bytes.
I think you can look at the alleged Russian hacking of Podesta's emails and the subsequent releases as an example of that perhaps.

But I wouldn't hold out too much hope for an outpouring of democracy and more equitable relations between individuals and states in an age of total global electronic surveillance. That is a weapon that is extremely expensive, complex and singular.

Count me pessimistic, Orwell continues:

"We were once told that the aeroplane had ‘abolished frontiers’; actually it is only since the aeroplane became a serious weapon that frontiers have become definitely impassable. The radio was once expected to promote international understanding and co-operation; it has turned out to be a means of insulating one nation from another.

The atomic bomb may complete the process by robbing the exploited classes and peoples of all power to revolt, and at the same time putting the possessors of the bomb on a basis of military equality. Unable to conquer one another, they are likely to continue ruling the world between them, and it is difficult to see how the balance can be upset except by slow and unpredictable demographic changes.

For forty or fifty years past, Mr. H. G. Wells and others have been warning us that man is in danger of destroying himself with his own weapons, leaving the ants or some other gregarious species to take over. Anyone who has seen the ruined cities of Germany will find this notion at least thinkable.

Nevertheless, looking at the world as a whole, the drift for many decades has been not towards anarchy but towards the reimposition of slavery. We may be heading not for general breakdown but for an epoch as horribly stable as the slave empires of antiquity. James Burnham's theory has been much discussed, but few people have yet considered its ideological implications — that is, the kind of world-view, the kind of beliefs, and the social structure that would probably prevail in a state which was at once unconquerable and in a permanent state of ‘cold war’ with its neighbors."
And a few of the airports seem wrong. Not sure if it's a bug, but check out Klamath Falls, Oregon and Bangor, Maine. The noise contour of Klamath is visibly wider than the entire Bay Area, that seems unlikely.
Is APFS still using Apple's style UTF-8 for e.g. Umlauts? I had a lot of trouble with rsync and also Samba later (filenames and folders hidden) when I discovered that Umlauts on HFS are different than Umlauts on e.g. Ext4.
Expensive is putting it mildly. $500 is pretty much the budget for an entire desktop system minus GPU. So I could buy a laptop with TB3, then drop another $1000 on eGPU, or take that $1000 and by a whole nother gaming system.

What keeps the price high on these enclosures? In the past the assumption had been that it's because Intel is charging a lot for the TB3 controllers, but unless I'm reading it wrong, the prices on those look to be very reasonable (sub $10) at this point: https://ark.intel.com/products/codename/56890/Alpine-Ridge.

Does anyone have a BOM estimate of this (or any of the competing) Thunderbolt 3 enclosures?
That is due to the HFS+ normalization that APFS eliminates. The filename is stored in UTF-16 and OS X converts it to UTF-8.
Don't be too enamored. These are fairly standard right wing talking points in India. From his comments on Gandhi and Pythagoras one can easily infer that he is a supporter of Narendra Modi and Hindu supremacy.

Pythagoras' school provided the earliest documented proof of the theorem, but the result was possibly known as early as 3000 BC.

As for Gandhi, he grew up in a strictly birth based hierarchical society and he pretty much accepted social and racial hierarchies until his thoughts evolved circa 1913. Most of Gandhi's racist quotes come from before 1910.
My daughter died from a fentanyl overdose a couple of months ago.

Like many of the people on this site, I am a software engineer working for a top-tier tech firm in SF. Money isn't a serious problem in our lives.

Total time from "maybe our daughter is doing drugs?" to death was less than three months. We sent her to rehab in that time because she was abusing cocaine and asked to go. I am not some ignorant parent - I've tried plenty of things and k ow the signs well.

Please, if you have kids, tell them about fentanyl. It is SO much more potent than heroin and can kill on the first dose. She went to a party, someone offered her some "coke", she snorted some and she died soon after. Turns out the coke was fentanyl or at least had some in it.

The autopsy of my daughter showed that there were no injection marks. She had a career and in no way fit the stereotype of an addict. One day she existed, the next she did not.

I am neither pro nor ani drug. I don't care about that. All i care about is telling people the story of my daughter. Fentanyl is so much more potent than heroin and it is sweeping the entire nation. If you have kids, please tell them tbat it exists and that people are selling it right now claiming its something different.

I think you mean case-aware, not case-sensitive. Just bytes like Unix leads to case-sensitive behavior.
