Sorry, I can't really recommend anything without more information. There's just too many variables.

I briefly looked at the datasheet for the regulator and it has some constraints for the output cap that should help guide your choices. For example, you need to look at what temperature range you expect the regulator/cap combo to be working at, as certain dielectrics are sensitive to temperature changes [1]. If you need stability over a wide range, you might go with an X7R or better, otherwise X5R might do. You will also have to look at derating the capacitance for the operating temperature - you might find that in a hot environment you actually need a 47uF cap or greater to meet the minimum 22uF output capacitance requirement of the regulator.

The other main thing to consider is operating voltage. The regulator you list is adjustable, so you will need to pick an output cap that has an appropriate capacitance at the voltage you plan to run the regulator at. The curves drop pretty steeply, so it's really important to analyze this.

For ESR you should look at manufacturer websites. They often have a "picker" tool that shows graphs of that (it's dependent on frequency!). You probably won't have trouble finding caps with a low enough ESR value for this application as long as you stay away from electrolytics.

Also, you can consider paralleling some lower value capacitors to achieve the capacitance you need, and reduce the ESR a little. I wouldn't use it as an ESR lowering strategy however [2]

ooof. that sucks.

Kinda makes sense. Between the odd political stuff, the lawsuit where he was partially blamed, and the general poor PR at times.
Tenured teachers can become very expensive in the US, and they have significant retirement benefits. But, high pay is also in high cost of living areas.

Luxembourg teacher salaries begin at 73,700 euros (79,920 USD), http://www.wort.lu/en/luxembourg/starting-salaries-of-73-700... Germany hits second place.
Right, but bad cookware isn't usually so bad it prevents you from cooking.

Bad educational technology can get in the way of teaching and learning. Errors/bugs and confusing UX can cause lengthy delays in the classroom.

Teachers can easily spend 15 minutes running around playing IT support when students are using a new technology – out of a 50 minute class which was scheduled in 5-minute increments.

That doesn't mean it needs to be "beautiful, seamless" software like we tend to idolize. Or the most featureful or innovative. It can be, but getting bog-standard basics working without confusion or errors is far more important. I certainly agree with the author on that.

(Source: previously cofounded an edtech startup, spent time in many classrooms observing these things).
Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. I thought they were completely different. How would Trump's direction be described, then? Nationalism?

Also, I agree that electing Trump was a raw deal. But between the two presidential candidates, Trump was the Change candidate and Clinton was the Status Quo candidate. From what I understand, a lot of studies show that Sanders would have won the election if he wasn't suppressed on the Democratic side. Most people don't feel like the country is going in the right direction, and they want change.

It's effectively the only cross-platform solution that works very well on all 3 major desktop platforms and both major mobile platforms. It seems like no one else has the incentive to take other platforms seriously. Especially, for anyone who collaborates or shares files with many small groups or clients. Even though it's not first-party it is the lowest-friction option, because you can't count on all your collaborators being on the same ecosystem.

Over several years, my experience of trying to use Google Drive or OneDrive on the Mac has been very frustrating, with significantly more CPU and RAM usage. It's ridiculous that OneDrive still doesn't do differential sync. AFAIK, neither has official clients for Linux.
Not defending Airbnb's behaviour, but this sort of thing happens outside of Airbnb too. I had some tenants (sons of a well known rock star) cause around £10K worth of damage to my flat in Shoreditch (plus around £5K in lost rent given the amount of time it took to repair) a few years back. In that case the letting agency I used was no help because they said it was a private matter between myself and the tenants, the insurance was no good because they said that amount of damage could not be accidental and they didn't cover malicious damage, and the legal system was no help because it favours tenants. In fact I might even have been better off with Airbnb.
Firebombing might have been a bit much but that conversation makes me wonder WTF is going on at AirBNB, it's like two people talking on entirely different wavelengths with the CSR not even taking the most cursory interest in the supplied documents. Incredible, especially given that the host has already done his best to limit the amount.

So essentially AirBNB's guarantee that they cover damage done by guests is hollow.
Sashko and Jonas from the Apollo team were guests on JAMstack Radio this week, it's a great primer if you're just getting into Apollo+GraphQL https://www.heavybit.com/library/podcasts/jamstack-radio/ep-...
But they ARE honestly fulfilling the guarantee - the host is able to get the requested damages. Yes, it's not an unconditional, no questions asked compensation, but it's not advertised as such. Terms and conditions apply, just as it's reasonable to expect e.g. paperwork and evidence of damages before funds are released. It would be dishonest if they had included terms or conditions that are unreasonable or difficult to fulfil, but an NDA isn't such a condition; it doesn't disqualify anyone who wants to finalize the dispute. Just as it would be very reasonable if the release of funds was conditional on an agreement not to sue for further damages, i.e., that the guarantee happens only if it's agreed to be the final resolution of this matter.

The described events don't seem to violate any promise that was actually advertised, the only mismatch is between reality and wishful thinking.

Building Realtime APIs in Rust
> Everything is a commit. Treat working copy and staging area as commits, allow regular commit operations to be applied to them

That… silly. No. That doesn't make any sense at all.
Totally agree here. I'm in the UK and my daughter's primary school has bought dozens of iPads (which are not exactly the most economical tablet), and they are used for things that could otherwise be done (and likely with better results too) in the real world, such as moving objects around for basic maths. Crazy waste of funds.
Since so many people here are talking about how "in science it's different, you need to just chill out. Science is all about creativity and you shouldn't work hard if you're in a "creative business"", let me just leave this link here: https://terrytao.wordpress.com/career-advice/work-hard/

If one of the best mathematicians of our time is saying "Work hard", it probably means more than some rando who writes for some blog.

If you want to just "chill out" and live a fun life, feel free to do so, the world would suck if everybody worked hard. It's actually great that you guys decide to believe working less is good for achieving what you want, because the ones who actually know what's up have higher chance of success.

Interesting I'll need to look into how well the Apollo Client plays with Redux and Redux Saga since I'm using them in my stack. I had assumed that it was more "apollo-focused" and thus wouldn't play nice.

Right. The bits you send are the bits that are received, clocked at a fixed rate. No compression or timing artifacts.
Absinthe is pretty nice, I wish their docs were a tad bit more full-featured (more examples, perhaps?)
Even before all the politics stuff he was not the best guy to have as the face of the company. His interactions with the community were sometimes pretty bad.

I wonder if he just wasn't happy with his role in the company.
That's what you would expect, yes. What has surprised me so far is how weighted the responses I've received are toward the guaranteed 1M, even among people with plenty of money.

I guess another interesting question instead of adjusting the range of the random outcome would be to scale the whole thing. Say you'd take the million. What about 10k vs 0-50k? My expectation is that the responses would be more consistent (ie less dependent on size relative to net worth) than you'd think.
Not off hand, sorry. I read a lot and then promptly forget where I've read things.
To you, mayhaps. You'd be surprised in how many different ways people use tools.
No.

It is, legally, difficult to divest yourself of copyright. Some people say it's possible, some people say it isn't.

It's not difficult to divest yourself of your exclusive rights under copyright. Which is what the WTFPL accomplishes. It's a subtle but significant distinction.

Similarly, you could:

1. Simply disclaim any copyright interest. "I disclaim all copyright interest in this work."

2. Disclaim any exclusive rights: "I disclaim all rights under copyright in this work."

3. Allow others any exclusive rights: "I grant to all parties any exclusive right under copyright."

Etc.

The fundamental problem is that under Berne Convention copyright, which dates to the early 20th / late 19th century (I'd have to check) in at least some jurisdictions, copyright is manifest at creation in any work. Which means these very words as I'm writing them. And there's no procedure for disclaiming those rights.

The Berne Convention rules have been adopted widely particularly since the 1970s.

Again: there are those who disagree that you can't claim a work is "uncopyrighted", but the ambiguity of such a comment (and the trivial means by which that ambiguity is removed) makes certain uses highly imprudent.
Preschool Teachers on the other hand make: $28,570 https://www.bls.gov/ooh/education-training-and-library/presc... Though they don't need a BS only an associates degree.

1/2 of all teachers quit the profession in the first 5 years. So, the on the ground benefits tend to be worse than you might think. 9 and 1/2 percent don't even last their first year. Turnover in teaching is about four percent higher than other professions. https://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2013/10/why-do...

PS: High school also pays much better on average in large part because you need to deal with high school students.
I'm not a fan of Luckey's politics, but gosh I am super grateful for his work getting the Rift to production. I admire his persistence, his ability to assemble and obviously talented team.

I am sure he learned a lot from taking his garage prototype all the way through a billion dollar acquisition. And I hope he learned some things from his first dip into politics.

I look at someone like him, and though I can criticize his beliefs and actions, he's also a pretty normal kid who group up on YouTube and 4chan and is struggling with a pretty confusing soup of ideas, just like all of us. You never know what people are like on the inside, but I'm going to assume his heart is in the right place, and I look forward to seeing what he does next. I am absolutely certain he's caught glimpses of the VR future no one else has, and he'll do his darndest to bring them into the world.
don't think regulations will help, but this definitely does: hotels can charge the renters' credit cards for damage done to the property, but airbnb hosts cannot do that to renters. so the risk to the hotel is minimized. i'm sure if someone damages a room so badly that they have to refurnish the whole thing, they'll happily bill the guest for replacement, item delivery, labour, yield loss, the whole thing - mark up the whole repair job the same way they mark up the peanuts in the minibar.

the other thing that helps is that whatever happens in a hotel is not happening to a place of permanent residence- someone's home. if partygoers cause damage that spills into my room, I can get another room. if partygoers next door cause damage that spills into my house, i'm out of luck (not to mention so is the host).
What you’re revealing to your ISP, why a VPN isn’t enough and ways to protect it
Not every “acquisition” counts as an “exit”
"Exploding" refers to the fact that it expired in 24 hours.
Well, no, the point isn't that simple propositions may have complex proofs, the point is that a proof may itself be simple, though hard to discover in the first place.
The world has moved on from when you were in high school. And you're here, which meant you basically won the lucky-draw of "how did you spend your free time and how did you parents support it".
First, a huge congratulations to the Apollo team! You have more than delivered on the original promise of the Meteor group.

I am really excited about the proliferation of GraphQL APIs as they replace standard REST endpoints! When I heard that GitHub released a beta of their API with a GQL endpoint, I immediately wanted to try it out.

I learned, however, that it is extraordinarily difficult to connect to multiple GQL endpoints with a single Apollo client. I cannot even imagine how that would work. Should a single GraphQL endpoint have "clients" of its own, through which it could proxy requests to other endpoints? Should the front-end application have multiple clients, each with its own endpoint? There are a lot of easy, inelegant solutions which come to mind.

Several GitHub issues reference similar ideas, but there is no clear solution. Do you have any thoughts about how an application can conceptually replicate the simplicity of REST requests to multiple & diverse endpoints, when the endpoints are GraphQL-structured?
This still seems too difficult for the average person who isn't a sysadmin, but still wants to protect their privacy. Python? Virtualenv? Config files? Ugh. My ideal VPN appliance would be a minimal Busybox-based disk image that updates using A/B partitions and has a nice web UI. It lets you set basic things like the hostname, time, admin password, and then regenerates all of /etc. A cross-platform GUI setup wizard uploads the disk image to a VPS provider, you get back a URL for the web UI with clear client setup instructions, and that's it. If an update becomes available, you click a button, it downloads the new image to the idle partition, modifies the GRUB config to boot from it, and restarts. Done.
This is so true. We can see it very recently too.

As a specific example look at evolutionary optimization. It's existed for decades, has a bit of a non mainstream cult following, but now the leaders of the field are finding they can beat the fanciest deep reinforcement learning approaches with it.

Will the VPN in Opera prevent this tracking? How long before Chrome and Firefox offer this?
We actually use the LUA scripts on Redis to guarantee the atomicity that the token bucket algorithm needs. Then the Ruby middleware does the HTTP 429 response logic. The code samples I provided are pretty close to what we use in production.

So yes, our Redis traffic is strictly higher than our whole API requests per second. This is actually pretty easy since Redis scales pretty well horizontally (the keys shard well) in addition to being able to handle many orders of magnitude more traffic than a normal web stack per machine.

Thanks for linking to your blog post. I like the simplicity of not having to enter the web stack at all. I'm not very familiar with varnish, how do you end up doing the actual rate limiting algorithm? I see you making a hash but not dripping tokens into a bucket.
Thats a pretty unreasonable request that a billion dollar company agree not to include deadlines in their settlement offers moving forward.

In fact I've never heard of a settlement agreement without a deadline, it wouldn't amount to malpractice but it would be pretty negligent to offer any type of settlement agreement on open ended terms of acceptance. As to the NDA/confidentiality, that too is the default of settlemenre, and if this were in litigation any settlement talks/negotiations are confidential by rules of the court.
Why not?

A commit is essentially just a snapshot of the state of files in the repository, so IMO it makes perfect sense to treat the staging area and working copy the same as commits.
The two non-voting senators were Republicans. One was Rand Paul who co-sponsored the bill, apparently there's some tradition of not voting for your own bill (when there are votes to spare). The other one, Isakson, is recovering from surgery and not in D.C. to vote.
I think there's a difference between being mad, and having formed an opinion about a person. I'm not actively raging about Lickey, but I have formed an impression of him that is unfavorable.
This will normally be covered by local laws or HOAs. It makes sense for neighbors to go after the person, but not to go after AirBnB.
Sorry, don't feel sorry for the guy worth however many millions. He could have easily avoided all the negative stuff by just not getting involved.

edit:
Thiel is one of the most prominent tech guys to support Trump. Zuckerberg defended him when people started calling for him to be removed.

The difference is that Luckey

1. was the face of the company
2. had issues with the community before any of the trump stuff came out. He pretty much stopped using Reddit because of it.
3. Is named in a lawsuit.
4. Supported Trump in a pretty childish way. Giving a donation or endorsing him is one thing. Trying to fund memes just looks bad.

For a guy who's main role seemed to be PR he did a poor job of it.
Of course there are - that's why people offer annuities. Other investment options don't let you consume other people's inheritances when you live longer than them, though.

you've hypothesized reasons why something should be automatically accepted, which is funny in cosmic poetry sense, but not terribly evidentiary.
This is the first time I've read a complaint/discussion/review/whatever of git's UI and thought 'wow yeah I actually agree this would be useful'.

I would still use the command line, a lot, but the times that I open `gitk --all --date-order` and a terminal side by side and refresh the gitk whenever I do a command to see what happens? THOSE are the times I would use this.
When I was younger, I used to put the same Socrates quote on everything I could, almost to fetish level.

This list I think is actually quite good, it's surprisingly wise. As I've gotten older, I've stopped thinking of 30 as very old. (though I haven't quite gotten there myself.)

This life for me comes at a point of transition in my life, both personally and professionally... and at least for me it makes me seriously think that I am doing the wrong thing currently.

Also, for what it's worth, I think the first newsletter I've signed up for after reading something and not by accident during an account creation.

Except for 13, about the money, whenever I read that I always think that comes from the luxury of having needs met, but I will avoid delving into some Maslow debate.
Commits are just snapshots. I can't fathom how many times I've wanted to have separate working copies for separate branches. And no, I really do not want to have ~/code/webapp1 ~/code/webapp2 ~/code/webapp3
Great point, though let's not assume 100% effectiveness for offsets.
I've been waiting for someone to mention magit. It is the only UI I know of that is more than just a git shell. Real thought went into it and it shows. It is faster and more convenient than the command line, which says a lot.
And yet words are the only way you can describe how you disagree with it. Try.

Meditation works well for me. The trick is you need to be consistent and patient. Try out the Calm app (my favorite), Headspace, or read "The Mind Illuminated" and start practicing daily.
Yes! Thank you! Kids are sensory learners! They need to be able to hold, touch, taste, smell, and feel things to learn! But instead, we get a fucking screen that you poke at? Come the fuck on.
We have iPads in school and they can be really useful. You just need to use them -- which comes down to teacher training.

Tell your partner to look up QR codes, we put different ones up around the room. QR code takes them to a web page with info on it. We use different codes (or URLs) for differentiation - smart kids get wikipedia or something hard, stupid kids get a simpler page or a video.

Does she use kahoot quizzes on them? Or socrative? Both work well.

Fuzzy logic for one thing, but usually you do not user analogue computers for digital tasks, since that's a very inefficient use of their capabilities. Instead, they can be used to directly calculate differential and integral equations, "simulate" analogue filters of all kinds and so on. This works by recreating the system in question using analogue integrators, differentiators , amplifiers, log converters etc.

Input variables and output variables become voltages.

This is very different from digital, quantified computers. It's also extremely useful, because a whole lot of things can be described by differential equations, and since analogue computers have no FLOPS limit, but only noise (also dynamic range) and bandwidth limits.

PS: There were also mechanical analogue computers (using gears but also more complex constructions) and hydraulics based computers (but I think these were not used practically, just for demonstration).
the "walls" around the "garden" -- are artificial

But they're not.

Standards, access, frictions, legal obstacles, implementation costs, and much more.

How, precisely, do you distinguish "artificial" and "non-artificial" barriers?

There were open networks, with Usenet being a particular example. Usenet still exists, sort-of. It's entirely a non-starter in social networks. You might want to enquire as to why. Similarly, Diaspora, Friendica, FOAF, blog+RSS, etc., etc.
