Haha, maybe I'm out of date. I know that Microsoft has stepped up on their game, but I figure I can share my anecdotal experience. One year ago I was trying to get Windows 10 or something going on my computer as a backup system. So I was googling a relatively popular freeware program (can't remember what it was) and tried to install it from a popular google search that appeared innocent (like softonic or something). Immediately after installing that I've got a computer with pop-ups and toolbars on my browser (just because I forgot to click Advanced install when I was installing it). It was awful - so I figured I can't be alone. It's more of the practice of the software developers on Windows more than it's the actual core of it.

But I don't think the average Joe cares who is at fault - he only knows that his computer is shitty at the end of the day.
> As far as the C++ is involved... There are qt bindings for just about every other language out there.

Absolutely not. And the ones that do work are ginormous. The Go bindings are LGPL licensed, meaning they aren't an option for most people until Go plugins are available across the board, at least.

With that said, QML does have plenty of bindings, thankfully. And indeed, Qt's future looks bright, while Gtk's uncertain, so the former is definitely the saner option.
Did you read the article? People add the structure they think they need to interviews, but are clearly able to troll themselves into worsening their judgments by requiring steps that not only don't help, but actively hurt.

And this is a near universal phenomenon. Almost everyone wants to "get to know the candidate."
I for one will be taking this into account should I find myself in the jury box.

The bad thing is, eyewitness testimony is even worse. And police testimony has a bruised record too. Both sides hire experts to say what they want. I guess video footage is the only thing left to provide objective evidence of a crime scene. :\
You say that like regulations are inherently bad. I can assure you that the industrial firms are not pricing negative externalities into their products unless the government forces them to.

Management is really a separate skill from anything else, you can't learn it by doing non-management jobs. Additionally, the level of competence in a field you need to be able to manage that field is really quite low. For example, something like 8% of college football coaches never played the sport themselves. Even for the coaches that played ball, many of them were bench-warmers at the collegiate level. Assuming you're already a good manager, I think the necessary domain competence required to effectively manage something can easily be picked up fairly quickly with an "assistant manager" apprenticeship under someone with experience managing that area.
Reasonably ~5 hours of coding, maybe sometimes less on days with a lot of meetings.

Rest of time on HN, reading, or admin type stuff (planning, ticket & branch management), and of course meetings
Vault from hashicorp was built to solve the use case described in the article.

However, encrypting source code, in general, especially from hosting services like github is still a valid use case for many scenarios. GitZero attempts to solve it, but it provides no specific guarantees that the source code (for free tier) is inaccessible to the hosting service
It depends how you conceptualize things.

If one takes natural language as a means to definite sets, you quickly get a plethora of paradoxes, for example Russel's paradox("Takes the sets of all sets that don't contain themselves. Does that contain itself?"). So if one takes "natural language" as one's system of defining set, one has to assume it's inconsistent and any statement is provably true and false. Thus "Richard's Paradox" is in the same boat as all statements in our "system of natural language".

That said, I think the proof in the text falls apart in another way - it neglects the distinction made in Skolem's Paradox. The Löwenheim–Skolem [2] theorem show that any system definable with a finite alphabet has a countable model. This is only an apparent paradox because this model is only countable when "viewed" from outside the model, within the model, it is possible to have ostensibly uncountable sets. So ones could certainly haves a countable model of the real numbers while the real numbers themselves remained uncountable as "countable" and "uncountable" were defined in the countable model.

Hi, I'm one of the co-founders of Landed. Some great answers below. Some additions:
1. The only thing I'll add is that schools that have implemented similar programs have largely done so out of necessity/desperation. Given the choice, they'd much prefer to not have dedicated internal resources managing housing financing for their staff.
2. Companies can also provide benefits of scale that could make all of these programs better off. The biggest weakness of a shared-equity investment product is a lack of liquidity (no market for resale). Each school having its own program with different rules and investment structure provides no opportunity for a standard institutional product. A standard institutional product would bring more competitive pricing because investors wouldn't have to be worried about holding positions for indeterminate periods of time.
3. The idea is that this is not subsidized housing. The idea is that there might be an opportunity to take existing real estate private equity capital flows and direct them to cooperate with buyers instead of compete with them.
Again, you are thinking patents or trademarks.

My house may look the same, but it's been built by different people, different electricians, on different land. It probably has a different internal structure, different materials, and slightly different external marks, because it was rebuilt from the ground up.

Copyright would apply if I used the exact same blueprints, but if I hired an architect to make blueprints with the same external design as another house that would be similar to clean room design and not a violation of copyright. Like how Google can make a copy of the Java API (they only got hit for having the same implementation written by the guy who wrote the version oracle had copyrighten in the first place).

In the analogy it would be theft if I took your house, put it on my land, and claimed it was mine. And that's what it is to commit criminal copyright violation (e.g. you distribute copies for profit, claiming you own it). Yes in the digital world copies don't deprive the other of anything tangible, but like stealing a house, it does deprive them of the work that was invested to build that expression in the first place.
Don't worry! A year from now they'll ship a new Mac Pro that only underperforms the cheap PC by 50% instead of 100%.
> Why does it matter if the person is a doctor or a janitor?

If I were in a customer service position where policy dictated I kick the guy off the plane, and he did not cooperate, I'd honestly look for any way to avoid the whole police ejection bullshit. The passenger being a doctor gave those customer service people a pretty good out, in case they needed to defend their actions (to defend skipping over the guy who refused to get up and leave, specifically) to either their management or to the next person in the crowd to be picked to give up a seat. I am surprised they didn't take it.

I wasn't commenting on the wisdom of the policy.
I'm saying statistically, college graduates get decent jobs much more frequently than high school graduates. Whether or not the cost/benefit analysis pays off for them depends on how much debt they have, what degree they got, where they live, and the socioeconomic status of their parents.
Some people don't want to use exceptions because of runtime overhead costs.

If exceptions are just "an option" that a library can choose when designing its interface, then you'll get a split ecosystem: a bunch of libraries that do use exceptions for error-handling, and then a separate bunch of libraries that do the same thing, but don't use exceptions for error handling, which is wasted, redundant effort.
> Requiring long continuations for reasonable image sizes is not simple.

We're just arguing semantics at this point. I mean "simple" like Assembler is simple: rudimentary instructions requiring a certain amount of understanding and sophistication to wield correctly. Not "simple" as in easy, intuitive, and footgun-free.
No, In this case I have complete right to control how my users make use of my product because we agreed to it. It might not be rational because I might lose to an open competitor, but that's a completely different subject.

There's trade secrets at every company in existence that they don't share with their competition. They can't patent them, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve protection. Companies exist because they don't give up how they work to their competition...
Well, there was the iLamp (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMac_G4). Terrible for expansion, but I do like the aesthetic of this one.
Depends how you want to define work.

I think of stuff that is beneficial to the company in one way or another like 95% of the time.

Re structuring thoughts, digesting ideas.... talking to others to understand how they think.

But if someone that did not know me came and looked at what i did during work hours and did not get to ask questions to me. I would assume they would think that i only worked 20-25% of the time.

Things are not always what they seem.
The best way to describe ADHD is: The TV is always on, but you don't get to choose the channel.

Some things are easy to focus on—I can sit down to program for a bit and lose track of time for 5 hours. On the other hand, if something is boring, it's mind-numbingly boring.

It was the worst while I was in school, since teachers and professors just thought, "oh, he's unmotivated" when in reality it was more along the lines of, "I'd rather cut my toenails with a rusty butter knife than write the paper." (Okay, perhaps that's a slight exaggeration.)

Anyway, if it affects your life and managing it yourself isn't working (give it an honest effort, of course) definitely speak with a doctor. While too many parents think their kids have ADHD when the kids are really just, well, kids, trying to cope with ADHD without some sort of guidance sucks. A lot. It's amazing how much more productive you can be if you get some help coping with it.

Just my $0.02.
$320 CPU

$255 mobo

Say $377 for 64GB of RAM ($127+250)

$550 for the GPU

$100 for a PSU

$120 OS license

$100 case

$200 for a 256GB NVME SSD

Just over $2000, with room for argument about whether attractive case design is worth $3200, and how increased productivity due to attractive tools isn't offset by operations taking half the CPU time.
> it's not a universally accepted idea that the origin was there.

The section in the linked WP article discussing the origin of the technique does not contain any references. you seem to be familiar with the topic, do you know of any other resources for this claim?

Academic articles like this make me miss my university account access.
> he has simply stated a way to generate another member of the set of French texts which of course is part of that set and so on.

Nope, because he used the diagonalization technique to make sure the new text was not in the original set, which supposedly contained all texts.
If people manage to remember this event, they can now also compare on violently getting thrown off the plane.
> A signal handler will catch the bus error in userspace.

Sure, but what I meant is that most of the time userspace programs have nothing interesting they can do with the bus error (and, as I noted, standard C does not actually provide this option anyway). Regardless there are existing signal handling libraries that aren't that hard to use in Rust (you now describe one in your post), so I'm not sure why you're pointing to that as "something... that Rust lacks."

There's no way I'm aware of that setjmp / longjmp could possibly be integrated with safe Rust, but I agree that they should be available to unsafe code (in a way that doesn't require invoking llvm intrinsics).
You certainly have to be a dual income household to have a chance of making it as a teacher in the Bay Area. That said, educators in Mountain View are paid reasonably well ($80,000 - $130,000). Two educators can still afford to buy a home reasonably close to Mountain View, they just can't save money fast enough for a $200,000+ down payment while concurrently paying rent.

One of the first homes we did was a principal in Oakland. He was just able to make it work on a single income.
Just because it is legally allowed or an established practice does not make it right

Lots of things were legally allowed established practices until they were not; people realized they were unethical and immoral, hopefully people will begin to realize this practice is also unethical and work to abolish legal overselling
I have recently gone freelance/self-employed and I have quickly missed the reality of being able to not have to question if I'm actually getting work done every minute of the day. The truth is, I can't do brain-intensive work for more than maybe 5 or 6 hours.
"We should forget about small efficiencies, say about 97% of the time: premature optimization is the root of all evil. Yet we should not pass up our opportunities in that critical 3%"

I'd say picking a platform is not, as it is definitely a critical part of your program, especially if it does not greatly increase the complexity of your code.
Google and Microsoft are using it.
My hypothesis, that has held up (in my mind) for awhile now, is that it's an adherence to ideology over reason and rationality, an approach that unfortunately has been legitimized for a large part of the right wing in the U.S. The denial of climate change is perhaps the easiest example, but remember that large proportions of Republicans believe many other things also supported by ideology and contrary to reason: Obama was not American, that Saddam Hussein was involved in 9/11, and many other myths. During the campaign, Trump could say almost anything and a certain segment believed it; and no matter what a Democrat said, it was disbelieved.

They aren't the first to do that, but I can't think of it happening on such a large scale since the Communists and fascists. In a way, it's reminiscent of the struggle that ended the Middle Ages and gave rise to the Enlightenment.
Exception in Haskell ?
Any survey where Lenovo is at #1 should be taken with a grain of salt.

Sorry, this is too generous; it must be taken with a huge truckload of salt. No way in hell would I equate a company who isn't able to maintain a functioning website with any sort of competency.
If you're using ZFS, the right thing to do is to attach drives C and D temporarily, create a second zpool on them, them use zfs send/receive to replicate snapshots from the primary drives to the backups. You can then export the zpool and move it to a different location.

Refreshing the backups is either done by putting the backups online at the remote location and syncing the deltas between the last snapshot and the current over the net, or by bringing the drives back to the primary, and sending the deltas.

The sanoid/syncoid toolset will help immensely with handing the necessary zfs snapshot and send/receive commands:

Does forced eating of healthy food and exercise mean healthier?

My original comment was more about lifestyle than anything else. Healthier lifestyle does not require a higher GDP.
Yeah. Try grabbing the head of an empty list, for instance. People for the most part don't like exceptions in Haskell, but that's not the same as the language not having them.
No. Mirroring the parent would be : "All cats die. Socrates is immortal. Therefore Socrates is not a cat." Which is perfectly valid logic.
So without this trend, the world would have had more middle class and lower unemployment? My question more specifically is whether this trend is the cause or the effect? I'm not convinced in either direction BTW, I'm genuinely asking (the ether).
This strongly echoes my own personal experience, as well my understanding of how to more accurately think about these substances. Thank you for taking the time to write such an articulate comment.

Mind you, being such powerful tools, they should be used with great care, as they can be used in damaging ways and by those who aren't prepared. And they aren't magic either -- they aren't going to save the world or cure cancer.

But, I think that research done with an open mind reveals the mainstream perspective on psylocybin and LSD to be quite misguided and uninformed. Based off personal experience, as well as recent sciencific studies, it seems they have the potential to bring about much good. I suppose my main concern is that most people aren't interested, at this point in time, in having their perspective and worldviews challenged in the way that serious, introspective use tends to do.

Just to clarify, I'm talking about special occasion, standard dose usage. I don't have any knowledge about the effects or safety of micro-dosing.

Throwaway for obvious reasons.
I can understand many of these moves even though I don't agree with them -- these agencies are wasteful from the perspective of very very conservative people. They are government overreach from a Libertarian perspective. They are advocacy organizations that have political beliefs that are not in line with the administration (racial justice, environmental protection, sexual health, etc)

But this one is just pure cartoonish moustache-twirling evil. Even the most staunch Libertarians out there think government supported law enforcement is a worthwhile use of taxpayer money, and in particular making sure that it's done correctly. The conflict of interesting inherent in having scientific standards for conviction and evidence be determined by prosecutors, not scientists, is easy to see. Here we have Sessions saying: "We don't need to make sure that we are convicting people accurately, or that the science we use to lock people in cages for the rest of their lives to be repeatedly raped is based on fact". We have recently learned that nearly all forensic science is FAR less accurate than the people using it suggested and that FBI forensic scientists have been testifying under oath and wildly exaggerating the accuracy of their methods in order to get convictions -- this is public knowledge, and yet Sessions still wants to quash any investigation.

Of all the cabinet picks and even more so than the president, I think Sessions is the most terrifying. What do you do when the Attorney General, a person with near unlimited power to imprison anyone in the country is explicitly and blatantly malicious and corrupt? He earned his way up the ranks, after all, abusing his position as a prosecutor to go after his political opponents, some of whom are still in jail for daring to run for office with a D next to their name in Sessions' turf in Alabama: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/mar/04/jeff-session...
Nah. Don't kid yourself. It may be "not particularly difficult" to write the code, but Twitter is way more than code. It's a cultural entity built with the labor of millions of people. You have to be exceptionally lucky to do something like Twitter and it's not something everyone can do.

This is my second pass at the Fundamentals course and it's great the way they've updated it with the latest conventions (e.g. using es6 class syntax, webpack 2, React Router 4, and more).
Despite all the flashy tools that proponents of C and C++ claim that makes C++ as safe as Rust, it's not doing any good at stopping the exponentially-increasing amount of vulnerabilities and crashes that are being reported over the last few years.
Me too. But then I think about beef fajitas.
Ohio State requires it for two years and it's about as big and public as you can get.
> Another problem with Unity was that it was totally not like the thing that made many of us like Ubuntu in the first place.

Well not so much a "problem" per se, but this was always something that amazed me: Unity was the last thing I was/am looking for.

I get that choices for the DE are great. Unity isn't my cup of tea, but having the option is nice. However, my main quibbles with Ubuntu lied - and still lie - totally elsewhere.

For example, I have never done a dist-upgrade with Ubuntu that didn't break everything and force me to do a new installation. This confuses me a bit, since Ubuntu is a great go-to distro for newcomers to Linux. And from that perspective I get that some people might be upset by the "NIH" of some parts of Ubuntu while others still could use more improvements overall.

That said, I like what Canonical does very much. Ubuntu is - amongst other things - a great live-system. I always make sure to have an Ubuntu Live flash drive around in case I have to save a friend's files because their Windows system kicked the bucket. And I suspect Canonical wouldn't have ended up where they are now if they didn't have the guts to go their own way on some things.
I have a good friend on the other side of the hill in town. We cross-backup our NAS systems to each other.
You said (not that that would be especially relevant to the discussion) that humans wouldn't experience such feelings in response to monkey pheromones, but that does not necessarily relate to our lack of sexual attraction towards monkeys. The facts are, they already did seem to perceive her as belonging to their group (as they defended her) and it is possible that things would have turned violent because of social dynamics and competition if she matured among them.

This discussion is kind of too long already but here's a few things you may be missing:

* Apes do rape women.
* Humans use apes as "prostitutes" in some villages. (Tangential to your argument but not really relevant to the girl's case.)

I have had my Facebook account deleted now for about a year now. A major motivation in doing so was when an ex-coworker of mine and my Dad got in a very heated argument. It was incredibly awkward and could have even harmed my professional career had it been some other coworkers/ex-coworkers I was friends with.
