It is not false, for example Albert Einstein was developing his Theory and he could do it because he was in a research ground where they were doing research about infinitesimal calculus, which was handy for Einstein to apply to his theory. But I think it wouldn't be clear to apply infinitesimal calculus to his theory if he didn't know it in advance. Or at least, we aware of it and its possibilities.

When you face a new problem, you just don't know how to find a solution, you based your hypothesis in the knowledge you already have. You can do research, but the more knowledge you have the less research you will do. And that time you save is money the company saves.

Anyway, you decide what to do with your life. If you are happier raising a family that is good. If you are happy learning stuff to apply to better jobs, that is good too. But obviously you cannot have everything because time is finite.
Not sure how exaggerated this is, but even then, those vendor can very well have the bad idea to don't give a shit about compat between one chip and its next version. Given where there go and the associated ecosystem, I suspect they do exactly that...

And then on PC too, you pretty much only have competition on the surface; then it's Intel and AMD. Given how modern CPU are SOC (and chipsets are now paired with CPUs, and with no 3rd party licence anymore), you have almost all of what matter in your system (for system compat) there...
- FLAVOR: Ubuntu Server

- HEADLINE: Better handling of apt and dpkg locks during apt-get upgrade/update

- ROLE/AFFILIATION: Cloud hosting provider

- DESCRIPTION: Thanks for taking our feedback! I work in cloud services and deal with many Ubuntu 16.xx users of various skill levels. One of the most common issues that I see are folks reporting that the "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" commands fail on newly deployed cloud servers. I wouldn't really classify this as a bug, but some internal changes to the apt/apt-get commands could make things a lot smoother. Here's what happens.

1. Cloud service providers periodically make a disk image of Ubuntu 16 with the latest packages an updates.
2. These images are used for several weeks (or sometimes even longer).
3. When customers deploy a new Ubuntu cloud server, the disk image is copied to a new machine.
4. The machine boots. Ubuntu realizes that it hasn't been booted for a while and performs some internal tasks. IIRC this is related to the "apt daily updates" service. This is the thread I always seem to reference ( http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/315502/how-to-disabl... ). The apt tasks run, which can take serveral minutes.
5. Asynchronously, the cloud service reports that the server is ready.
6. The customer (or their scripts) will login and do some provisioning. A common first provisioning step is to do a package update: "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade". These may fail if the "apt daily updates" task is still running. I've seen a variety of errors, but usually look like this:

> E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
> E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/

When running "apt-get update" during this state, it sleeps for a few moments, then reports an apt/dpkg lock error. Since most of the time this whole process happens autonomously, it seems like making "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" block until a lock is available would be quite beneficial. Documentation on the web for upgrading ubuntu usually references these two commands, so I don't think adding new parameters would be that beneficial; changing the default behavior would be better.
A major thing you have on PCs that you do not have on ARM is bus query.

With PCI and later the OS can ask each device on the bus to ID itself and thus figure out if it is a known device type or not (and if not, ask the admin to install drivers).

On ARM You have things sitting off various buses that expect the kernel to know what they are and how to talk to them from the word go.

It has gotten better as now there exist something known as a device tree that can be read by the kernel at boot. But not every SoC provide support.
It refers to Hvalsey, I think. At least in Swedish, "val" is whale and "ö" (roughly pronounced "ey") island.
Uh, Bernie Sanders? He was the anti-establishment, populist democrat that likely would have become the nominee if he wasn't completely suppressed by the DNC. The democrats in charge underestimated the population's desire for change.
>Tesla is an energy company not an automobile company

ORLY? Odd that an energy company puts such a high emphasis on quarterly delivery numbers of... automobiles.

We Analyzed 23,858 MarTech Tweets – And Busted Some Myths
Many of the major banks charge fees if your bank account is below a certain threshold [0], often in the range [$1000,1500] for the required minimum balance. Any balance below that, you typically need direct deposit to avoid the fees.

And banks have a (in the US) deservedly poor reputation amongst the poor.

Less common now (maybe barred now?), banks would take the day's transactions and apply them in an order which deliberately fucked the customers. Let's say your balance is $100, and you get paid $1500 today. But you're living paycheck to paycheck so you delayed bill payments until today. You pay 5 bills, total value of $1000 (you have enough, technically). The banks would order the execution of those transactions to hit you with overage fees for as many of the payments as possible. If you noticed it right away, they'd refund the money with a phone call (and a few hours of your time on hold). Otherwise, you're just out a couple hundred dollars. All your bills will have been paid, but you would have been hit with up to five $25-75 overdraft fees before your deposit was finally processed.

Or how Wells Fargo was creating accounts for people without their consent, resulting in people who had enough money in their accounts suddenly not and being hit with fees and penalties for their trouble.

[0] They'll also change these in the fine print periodically. My free checking was a $1000 minimum with Bank of America. I'd switched to USAA for most things, but they have no physical branches. Occasionally needing a real bank, I left the $1000 in my BoA account, then one month I got hit with a fee. Turned out they'd bumped the minimum to $1500, found the letter and it was indeed small print indicating the change to the small print, buried in 10 or so pages of material about my account.
Yeah I think car companies should focus less on making cars...

- Your first point is cars - there are a ton of evs for sale from many large companies and direct sale doesn't seem to sell more cars than indirect.

- Tesla is partnering with battery companies just as GM does on the bolt and volt. Nothing special here as their battery business is pretty minuscule.

- Again a niche market that compares to GMs after market crate motor program in revenue and size.

- Self driving tech doesn't belong to Tesla and Google, most luxury car companies had automated cruise systems when Tesla was making the roadster. Gm has a large fleet roaming around Detroit, Chrysler is partnering with Google with their Pacificas, and Ford has a fleet of fusions as well after billions in investment.

The larger point is that elon and his 16 companies seem to do no wrong and avoid comparisons to the existing car companies, he should focus on getting market share in the extremely competitive automotive market instead of making a space/AI/brainlink/tunnel/solar/ev company.
I'm honestly not sure that's true. Legalization and regulation will make it easier to grow legally, but it's hard to undercut someone who isn't paying for the land they use. This is similar to how cheap ASICs and electricity haven't pushed out botnets mining bitcoin - free is still cheaper than cheap.
"21st century commoners burnt the dead to stop them from rising, study finds" (2295)

A study of early 21st century literature shows a tendency to burn their dead, instead of interning it in a space capsule. "Early space goers faced high costs to obtain orbit" an unnamed source at the International Space Consourtium said "which likely resulted in them burning the bodies before sending them into space." What is unknown is how many allowed the remains to drift once reaching space and it seems the practice of sending towards Sol didn't begin in earnest until Priest Johobath's teachings began to spread in earnest.

"Despite the seeming uncouth behavior, it was likely an established tradition. Much detailed information probably will be discovered once we crack the code surrounding the Facegoog group's information trove." reported the Cyborgisty in a statement.
That part of the analogy does persist. It is the feature. The gene drive doesn't just insert the change you want - it inserts the change, and the code to make the change:

Wild type mosquito DNA: =================

Desired change to DNA: =============XX==

DNA encoding Cas9 and XX-Payload: =C9(XX)=

Gene Drivered Mosquito (before activation) (change to compiler): ====C9(XX)=============

Gene Drivered Mosquito (after activation) (change to login code): ====C9(XX)========XX===

------------------------------

A normal mosquito mating with a XX mutant mosquito:

Mother Gamete: -----------------

Father Gamete: -------------XX--

Mendelian fraction of children (and grandchildren) are either --, --/XX,, or XX/XX (if two chromosomal copies)

A normal mosquito mating with a Gene Drivered mosquito:

Mother Gamete: -----------------

Father Gamete: ---C9(XX)----XX--

All children: ====C9(XX)========XX=== (for all 'N' chromosomal copies)
But what do you mean by not "sitting around"?

The tendency to treat Trump as inherently illegitimate and to ignore the voters behind him is just the kind of condition that might lead to future horrors. You might argue (though I wouldn't) that Trump's silliness is also such a leading indicator.

But so what? In a democracy both sides get their chance to push pull.
True, but of course any latency introduced by a program is in addition to that brain lag. Even though the program can do work while the brain is processing, to feel snappy it must let the brain begin that processing as soon as possible, i.e. respond as close as possible to instantaneously.
> Part of the problem is that Linux has no driver API like Windows. The result is each vendor maintains their own fork of the Kernel with their crappy drivers shoehorned in.

Linux has a driver API; the interfaces are not as stable as windows but they are there - the vendor shoehornning has more to do with closed hardware blobs, drivers not being developed in the open, and profits than a few struct member tweaks here and there shifting across android releases..

the handset manufacturers have no profit incentive to ensure that the phones are compatible for a longer term, and keeping the hardware drivers closed/behind version-specific blobs serves as convenient way to facilitate planned obsolescence

plenty of windows hardware doesn't get new drivers across OS release boundaries for the same reasons so slightly better API stability is not really a very good argument here on its own..
Jane Street uses the same approach to build their exchange [0]. Like the doc says, it can be great to replay some sequence of messages in dev to reproduce issues, and to give fault-tolerance to the system.

One downside is that, if all your nodes are using the same application code, simply replaying the log might not help as all nodes might hit exactly the same bug with the same sequence of transitions.

My ex husband is a junior. He joined the army not long before his father -- the senior -- retired from the army. My husband (and his father) had all kinds of pay problems the first few months of service as they mixed up the pay of father and son who were living in different places, had vastly different ranks, but were banking with the same bank.

Yes, the federal government was doing this. It was all kinds of fun.

(For once in my life, I am grateful for my weird ass name.)
I think you are generally right about a primary/family car, but less so for a second, commuter car. I think this mainly hinges around making the self-driving technology safe, reliable and cheap (that is, cheaper than owning a car currently). I think taxis would be used more if they were significantly cheaper. Buses and trains have extra delays for stops, and you may still have to walk/bike after you get off. Having a cheap transportation option once you get off the train would probably increase train ridership as well, and decrease congestion during peak hours (at least for the major freeways, it may increase it some on roads closer to the train station)
I'm not sure where we crossed wires but we're saying the same thing, nothing you said changed what I said.

What I meant by OP is that it is not as simple as flying their partners in and they start working together and then leave. Apple doesn't just do that without ensuring everything that happens stays in Apple only. So, flying ImgTech guys in and out does not mean ImgTech owns the patents to what they did at Apple want or the other way around, Apple can ensure they have the exclusive rights to it.
Kudos for listing your salary, I've given you an upvote and hope you float to the top and get lots of attention!
We cannot say for certain what would have happened if she had done something other than the thing she actually did.

I have a common name, and some jobs that required background checks, and the most I have ever had to do regarding felons with similar names to my own is sign a note saying that none of those people were me.

If I were in her situation today, I would ask the company for the mailing address of its corporate attorney, and go from there.
What law is there to deter de-anonymizing data from an ISP? With a combination of ISP data, tracking cookies, etc. from multiple data providers, individually identifiable profiles should be possible.

Moving to EVs, they either outsource the drivetrain (as the comment I replied to was suggesting, and as GM is doing with the Bolt) or start doing EV drivetrains in house. Either way, they lose the advantage of their long experience with ICE drivetrains.
Pretty much. MS even balked at supporting mobile ATOM back in the day, because Intel had stripped out PCI support to reduce power requirements.

The The PocketPC and Windows Mobile situation was not much different from the Android situation today, i believe.
I've written an entity/component "system", but it's mostly just a macro that generates structs and some useful functions on them :)

Basically, I started out just writing structs, then realized I was writing a lot of boilerplate, and now I can specify components like this, and use a custom derive to generate the actual structs and helper functions:

#[derive(Entities)]
pub enum Component {
Position { x: f64, y: f64, z: f64 },
Direction { x: f64, y: f64, z: f64 },
Velocity { x: f64, y: f64, z: f64 },
PlayerControlled
}
I've been working with Clojure professionally for the past 6 years and I've had a very positive experience. My team finds that code is actually very maintainable.

Two main reasons for this are that Clojure is immutable by default, and it has minimal syntax. Immutability allows projects to be naturally compartmentalized. You can do safely do local reasoning on parts of the project. Meanwhile, simple and consistent syntax means that it's easier to read and understand the code written by others. There are far less language quirks to remember than in most languages.

I also find that the editor integration with the REPL is a huge plus as well. Whenever I run into code that I'm not sure about, I can just run it and see what it does.

Strictly speaking market cap is what someone is willing to spend on a small portion of the company scaled up. The actual price someone is willing to pay for the whole thing is a different number, typically larger.

It isn't the EV either, though
> indeed, the fatal Tesla autopilot crash took place on a Pennsylvania "turnpike" highway, and not a California freeway

The fatal autopilot crash occurred in Florida, not Pennsylvania. There was also another in China.
I just bought an Acura ILX this year and I really like it (despite the reviews that it is just a luxury Civic), and I never even considered buying a Tesla.

People misunderstand post car like post PC: it doesn't mean the market is going away, but merely that it is no longer growing. Therefore, WYSIWIG on earnings, because they aren't going to change dramatically. Ya, Ford might have record earnings that are slightly more than last year, but no one sees them doubling before inflation makes that happen naturally.

> do you even know what i'm talking about? do these insanely popular cars even register on your radar?

I have to admit, I prefer Japanese cars and would never consider buying an American brand. I found them unreliable in the past, and got burned more often than not. But I still don't see the Japanese companies pulling a Tesla in the future, they are fairly stable companies with stable market share and profits. They don't change the game.

> -not even a ford guy. porsche, there is no substitute.

German cars break down too much. Ya, you can get one, but after the warranty is up, you are toast. Better to lease instead.
When I was an undergraduate in the late 1980s, my university Id was my SSN. And because this was before the Web, professors would post exam scores on their office doors, with the id numbers as the identifiers (for privacy). It really was a different world.
There are others posting here but dropped in to also confirm that I firsthand witnessed this.

I had a single device and had to do a fresh install from factory settings. This meant I had about 30 mins before my 500kbps connection would grind to a crippling halt from all the accumulated malware.

This meant I had to incrementally procure protection, save it, then fresh install and repeat until I could access the Internet safely.

I don't miss those days.

At that point it seems like a glorified version of a bug bounty list[1].

The convenience of GSoC is that the students get to intern with pay on open source projects. If squashing bugs is the only goal, then going through their bug bounty lists and getting paid for it really is just picking a company on that list and doing it yourself. However, with a Google program behind it and the company's agreement, I'm sure the amount paid will be higher and/or more consistent.

Including my old link [2] for security/bug vulnerability discovery as well, since you get paid for these by the companies based on bug fixes or discoveries.

It should be noted that "modern academy" involves a lot of people who don't teach, and are in institutional settings where teaching is not a thing.
Thank you for your reply :)
It doesn't matter if it's technically instantaneous, the point is it is our reference point for "instantaneous".
Law is definitely in crisis
Unless you can prove the kind of nondeterminism which triggers the bug. Sometimes it is much harder to write a testcase to reproduce a nondeterministic bug than proving formally that it isn't possible after the fix.
An Agile Approach to Life
You're describing the only case in which an NDA would legitimately be enforceable, and acknowledging that they're enforceable in that case.

As I said elsewhere on the thread: it's true that some companies try to sneak more general IP agreements into NDAs, including noncompete clauses, but the terms of a standard MNDA are pretty straightforward.
My team does code reviews and pair programming, especially when onboarding new devs. This helps new hires get comfortable with the style the team uses, and ensures we have clean code in our project.

We've hired a number of devs for our Clojure projects, and none of them knew Clojure when they started. We found that this process has worked very well for us.
Depends on the market. I see a lot of CLAs in LA, and they are probably paying more than $35K for them.
Not misleading or false at all. The latency of the real world is 0. Our internal perception latency might be non-zero, but that's on us, not the "real world". When you pile on additional latency between button press and screen feedback, the internal biological latency doesn't cover for it. It adds to it.
