I always read summaries like this of Grant with some level of doubt. So just reading a chapter of Grants writing gives my interest and doubt direction.

The part about the surrender is more worthy than a historical summary of his life (which always mentions he was broke). He on the fly included personal items to be taken by the confederates. How he realized most are farmers who needed their horses. And their sidearms.

But don't take my work for it, read it yourself. That is why your post helps me so much. TY
Again, she is registered in Germany and she has everything she needs except for the most important thing, which is the possibility to access to the health system.
I get that this is a factor for huge companies. They can avoid their own employees and instead try to navigate Amazon's, Google's or Microsoft's service departments. And I get it : mostly a big step up. It's a sad commentary on the quality of most organizations.

And especially in those cases, it's not worth it. A good IT department would be far cheaper than paying for a high-traffic site with lots of backend infrastructure like a bank would have.

What makes you think this?
If you're compiling a package with lots of functions in it, Go can now have multiple cores working concurrently on (much of the work of) compiling different functions.

Go would already work on more than one _package_ at once, using multiple processes, which helped big builds covering many packages (think building Juju, Kubernetes, or Docker from scratch). The benefit here is in the common situation where you make a change in one package and recompile: more of your cores can be put to use getting that package rebuilt.

This is a changelist for review, after preliminary work to move state out of globals, etc. If you click "Show more" it will show much more, including discussion of the internals and wall- and CPU-time benchmark results.
I drove for both Lyft and Uber last year, and I could swear that Uber was tracking Lyft. I'd get a call for an Uber and while fumbling around with the phone getting to the Lyft app to drop driver mode, I'd get a Lyft call in. Totally anecdotal, but it happened enough that I noticed. Eventually I quit trying to double dip, it was just too stressful. I'd make a call on which to use based on the incentives being offered, basically, or if things were slow on one I'd switch to the other.
I'm paying taxes in Germany and my girlfriend does not have access to the health system just because we are not married, that's absurd.
Can you please supply a direct quote from one of those articles to support this assertion?

> The reality is that industrial production in the US is 15-20% less than it was 20 years ago.

I wonder how recently and carefully you have read these articles. For example, the Economist and Real Clear Policy pieces are directly contradictory on the subject of measuring value vs. price for electronics.

The Bloomberg piece is 8 years old. And even then, it says:

> After the adjustments, however, the new growth rate for manufacturing output might be as small as 0.8% a year,

Growth of 0.8% a year, while anemic, is not a decline.

Uber & Lyft need a large pool of drivers readily available. The quick pickup is a key part of the experience that makes them superior to taxis. Especially drivers who are rated well. I'd be kind of surprised if a driver's rating didn't factor into their entire incentive program. I carried a 4.9 Uber rating by the time I quit driving and they were issuing some really attractive incentives by the end.
Shyness is a mental disorder and a severe disadvantage.
I think you are confusing shyness and introversion. Introversion is when you don't feel the urge to talk, to act unless it's important or valuable. Shyness is when you want to talk, you want to act, you want to introduce yourself to that person, but you are unable to do it because anxiety kicks in. Actually the more thought you have put into what you want to say, the more it's important to you and the more emotionally involved you are, the more you are afraid to be misunderstood or rejected and the more you are likely to shut up. So a lot of shy people, when they get to talk, will often stay at the level of useless small talk because it feels safer.

Western culture certainly values too much extroversion, it should certainly be more kind to shy people, but in my opinion shyness is not something to celebrate, it's really handicapping in a lot of matters important in life and it doesn't bring anything to anyone.

The focus on a theme reminds me of another magazine I subscribe to: Lucky Peach. Their issues focus on chicken, or pho, or power vegetables, or breakfast foods... or more abstract themes like "Versus", "Fantasy", "Gender", "Apocalypse", and "Obsession". It's high-quality content that goes narrow and deep — so I rather appreciate that Increment is going with the thematic approach.

I would expect that Increment will run less risk of burning through many important topics quickly and having their later issues tread the same ground, just shallower. We already have plenty of venues to get news about bleeding-edge developments in the tech world — HN, for instance! I wouldn't be upset if the topic of on-call weren't covered in Increment for another 2-3 years, so that the content can be more substantive and battle-tested.

Kudos and thank you, Stripe!
Is it the same as piracy though? Here, you legally bought the game and presumably can make a claim that everything written in the code belongs to you, and hence should be accessible. In piracy, you are unlawfully obtaining a copy of something that you have no claim over. This would be like if someone wrote another story into a book you purchased, but using invisible ink, and then sold blacklights for 50$. Are you allowed to use your own blacklight to read the stories (since they're on a book you purchased), or are you supposed to shell out?
FWIW, I see Santa Monica as being more akin to Berkeley, or even San Francisco, than to LA.

To me, Santa Monica's politics seem much more engaging, idealistic and left-leaning than those of LA. Santa Monica is also much wealthier, on average, than LA.

Because of its greater wealth (or its idealism, you decide) Santa Monica seems to be a better run city with what appear to be better maintained streets and public facilities. It's the kind of city LA residents like to escape to from time to time, if they can afford it.

It's perhaps relevant that Stephen Miller, an influential element of the Trump administration, forged his identity as a reactionary provocateur in the politically correct crucible of Santa Monica High School.

Just to clarify, the no-name Bluetooth OBD-II adapters a lot of people use come with a default PIN of 0000 or 1234 - that can't be changed - and the OBDII port is usually powered even with the vehicle switched off and locked.

However, how much you can do really varies depending on the vehicle. I have a 2010 Prius and the OBD-II port is powered when locked and switched off, but the computer isn't active (so the port can't be used) unless the vehicle is switched on. Also the port itself is mainly read-only in my case, other than opening windows there isn't much I can do through it (I wanted to add remote-start, but it's not possible).
Imagine if the surgeon had informed flight crew that he was needed for important surgery, and then the captain informed the surgeon that the plane would not be flying with him aboard so the only way that he could get to the hospital on time would be to leave now, and find alternate transportation.

And further imagine that the surgeon sat tight anyway, and that a United lawyer then informed him that he, the surgeon, could be sued by every other passenger who was unable to travel to important appointments.

In other words, the guy could have been rationally talked off the plane.

In fact, United could have contacted the hospital where he works, informed them that he would not be flying today, and given him a phone so that he could discuss the situation with his boss and his employer. They too could have rationally talked the guy off the plane, or alternatively they could have given United information that would lead to letting the guy fly.

Just saw this comment. Not sure if you will see the response. You raise a really good point.

If someone is joining a startup at an early stage, work like it is your own baby. You are spending your most valuable currency by being here - which is your time!

With time, hopefully, you will get rewarded for your effort and results. You will likely not get a founder level say and stake but your role should gradually expand. In the end founders take almost the same risk as the first employee, but get a lot more equity because founder was there at the start. Join a startup as an early employee only if you are able to accept this fact - otherwise you are setting yourself up for a lot of resentment and pain.

This above advise applied to me too for the first two years of my employment, before I started working on the ultimate successful product. We were building an offline search engine and as a part of that I build distributed file systems, crawled a billion pages and I was appropriately rewarded with career growth.

However with the new social product that I built, the situation was dramatically different. For that product I was there from day 0. I was owning the whole engineering (sole engineer at start and head engineering till I left) and significant portion of product. Till we got 5M users, I had a co-founder level say (but not the stake of course) and I worked with a co-founder level of involvement and dedication till that time. However once we got 5M users, multiple levels above me started doing meetings and taking critical decisions without involving me. I still had a co-founder level passion and it hurt to see the product flounder and being unable to do anything about it.

So I was in a uniquely bad situation and it is not common to be in this situation. However if someone really is and there is no way to get a founder level control - move out as soon as you can. And this is what I did - albeit 2 years too late.
I really hope this stuff takes off.

There are a lot of beautiful places in and around Los Angeles, but you have to search for them. Los Angeles isn't a "wide open" city like other towns, where, as a tourist, you can drop in and just get it. It takes a lot of exploration to figure out.

As an example, you can find areas in Silver Lake that have staircases as streets. I'd hate to be the mail man for that area, but it's pretty interesting to see.

LA is huge, with a lot of different areas, ranging from terrible ghettos to Bel Air. Some areas are flat, some are steep. Korea Town and Beverly Hills has more and larger buildings than most city's downtowns, yet Griffith Park is the second largest park in California. Other areas are residential, others are rather rural. It's a huge mishmash of areas.

With all that said, you are sort of right. Los Angeles is a wide area divided into many smaller sections, each with it's own identity, but I'd hardly call it featureless.

MS/PC-DOS, and DR-DOS, were not just "a bunch of code" and had a definite structure when it came to operating system design. They comprised the basic disc operating system, the basic input/output system (incorporating built-in and loadable device drivers), the command processor, and the housekeeping utilities.

>an accelerometer in a Wii Remote

I don't think this is the best example, accelerometers were not a cheap common part at the time. The Wii predates the iPhone, MEMS accelerometers were not anywhere near as widely deployed as they are now and they cost an order of magnitude or two more.

I can remember hobbyists buying Wii Remotes after launch just to rip out the sensors :)

IMO, perfect example is the B&W LCD on the original DMG Gameboy. A generation behind the competition, but cheap and low-power for the time.

Question. It seems like V-tach is not something that overwhelms you in an instant--the first time, Endicott was able to stand for at least several minutes, and it took him several hours after that to reach medical attention. He would have died without it, but there was some time.

So why does the ICD strike without warning? Falling over unexpectedly is pretty dangerous even if you're just standing or walking, and can easily be crippling or deadly if you're older, as I imagine many patients are. Wouldn't it be a lot safer if it gave you some kind of warning so you can stop and sit down before the big jolt--a mechanical nudge or tiny tickle of current to some heart-adjacent tissue?

Can't speak for the author, but to me "technical debt" is needed fixes that don't quite fit in a bug report because they don't fix any bug, and they don't deserve a feature request because they don't add features. Therefore your taskmaster/overlord/scrum-master has no place to put them and in fact you'll have trouble convincing anyone, especially non-coders, that it needs to be done at all. So, track it in the code, since devs are the target audience and since "in the code" is where you'll be the next time you find yourself having to deal with "that kludge" again.
So this is sort of like CRM for your friend relationships?

This is also an interesting study of the origins and evolution of corporate-speak: https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2014/04/busines...

One of the most active sources of new terms is apparently layoffs. Consulting companies and CEOs try to one-up each other, perhaps unconsciously, who can come up with and then own the coolest new term.

Then it starts spreading. CEOs read the same magazines and blogs and then everyone is using the term. "Hmm, I kinda like how so and so used the term 'circling back' I'll start using it too, it just seems so fresh and cool. Everyone will be impressed". [1]

I always wonder how people end up writing in that style. Do they actually think like that, as in for an hour they switch to thinking in corporate-speak, and later switch back to thinking normally. Or do they think normally and then translate as they type so "fuck that guy blah blah" becomes "we reached out to the developer and told them we'll be letting them go".

Imagine the tragedy of a poor CEO stuck in corporate-speak mode, unable to plainly communicate with family or even order coffee, because nobody understands them or just thinks they are an asshole.

Just to clarify...the ports ARE NOT read only. They are very much writeable. The devices you mention just give a readonly interface.

The OBDII protocol itself is read only. OBDII requires a subset of parameters to be readable through an SAE (society of automotive engineers) developed protocol using the standard port. This occurs through reading of data that is regularly broadcast onto the CANBUS itself. In effect, OBDII runs on top of the CANBUS, with the connector in the cabin allowing access to OBDII via the CANBUS.

However, the ports are much more capable and include direct connects to just about every system. CANBUS actually interconnects The CANBUS itself is typically a 'security through obscurity' approach where tuners are forced to reverse engineer CANBUS packets to access the networked exchange of information within the vehicle. In fact, 7 of the 16 pins in the connector are 'manufacturers discretion'. CANBUS gives access to it all, if you speak the language. OBDII is a 1pg sheet of translations.

You can see the results of this through examples like that published in 2015 by Wired[0]. That was possible because the infotainment system and the engine, and transmission, and body control module, etc. are all connected to the same CANBUS...and information on the network is fully trusted once you know the language.
