Taking the job leading a sinking ship was a pretty big risk.
Doing all the bright frames together and all the dark frames together is surely suboptimal, but it's hardly weird: there's an obvious reason for it. (Namely, that the transition between bright and dark requires covering the camera lens with black tape and it's easier to do and undo that once than 64 times.)
The the police should... police that.
Well, yes, but they also have a job to do. If whoever is in charge mandates something your options may be to do it or find another job, and not everyone is financially comfortable walking away.

I'm not saying everything is great, only that it's far more common for something wrong to be explained by factors you aren't aware of than someone to be utterly unqualified to hold their job.
I feel as though they always had 'the power'. They are exchanging a good they are born with (attractiveness), for a good that their older partner has typically worked their entire life for (money).

If anything, I'd say the historical power play is the man being taken advantage of for his simpleminded sexuality, not the other way around.
When I worked ftp (with accounting departments ironically), the advice was not to do that because the client often corrupted files.

In all fairness, however, the title is misleading. Once you've given a rogue service like Unroll.me access, you can be sure they'll download every piece of information they can. All you can do later is prevent them from getting any future information. What we really need is a way to authenticate without surrendering any personal details to begin with.
Despite its unpopularity on HN, I find LinkedIn to be excellent for my needs.
As a geologist I want to emphasize how scanty is the exposure of terrestrial(dry land) landscape within the geological record. Assuming we are talking about a terrestrial species, the available geological record is mostly volcanic flows and sand seas (like the Sahara) of huge extent. The surface of the Earth is mostly an erosional surface not a depositional one. Ironically, the best place to find terrestrial fossils is within lake beds (not really terrestrial at all).

As metals do not last on the geological time scale, I think that the most likely evidence would be ceramic fragments or stone structures, but I believe there is too little exposure of suitable habitat and the likelihood of noticing any evidence as might be exposed too slight to say anything about the lack of geological evidence.
Capitalist is such a useless term. People who can define it don't use it, and those who can't abuse it.
Sounds like the lambs were terminated immediately after coming out of the biobag, so the researchers could get a clear picture of how lung development progressed in the biobag without confounding factors coming from spending too much time in the open air.
Ah, sorry, forgot the "export" part, you're right.

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernstein_v._United_States, the regulations are still in effect. It doesn't say what the U.S. loosened them to, but they do still exist.
It's amazing how much technical debt Android has accrued given how much newer it is than Windows.
IBM gave a good lesson too, their response was a work of art.
The contractor would be hired to build what the engineer designed. The contractor does not check the designs.

The university degree is only the first step toward becoming an engineer. In the US, to be a licensed engineer one must have a degree, pass the Fundamentals of Engineering exam, work a cumulative 4 years under another professional engineer, and then pass the Professional Engineering exam for the discipline they wish to pursue. After that, continuing education credits are require to maintain the license. Additional testing may be needed depending on field and location. To say that the license is just a stamp on the degree is not correct.
AT&T’s fiber deployment: 1Gbps for the rich, 768kbps for the poor
I remember when I was on a college campus that had those. All the gear-heads on campus did their best to make the pavement on the far side of the speed table look like the end of a runway. You didn't even have to break the speed limit to do it.
Mormons aren't polygamous. Please stop spreading this narrative that you know isn't true.
High valuation does the opposite.

High valuation is equivalent to saying high price. The higher the valuation, the more you pay, for less of the company.

BUT, in order to get investors to pay this high price, sometimes you have to give them really good terms.

Terms like "if the company sells for less than you paid, then you get all of your money back, thus you aren't risking anything".

Early investors pay a lower price, but generally risk more. If the company ever has a down round, at any point in the history of the company, the early investors get screwed/might walk away with literally 0$, even though they "owned" x% of the company. While the later investors walk away with all their money intact.
I think that's being challenged in Federal court
The most interesting thing about this article for me was the caption of the photo of Leonor and her son:

> Leonor and her son Zen. Photo by Meredith Talusan.

My name is also Zen, and I've never met or heard of anyone else with this name :) That's cool.
No, that isn't really what it's saying.
Anything can be broken by a rewrite.
I think you'll find Freud is largely not taken seriously. You can't use whatever model you want, but I wouldn't call it correct.
I know Python well and want to learn Go. I can write simple programs in many languages (Stack Overflow is my friend!)
Thanks; this was my suspicion, too. The other PEs I've spoken to were bewildered that I'd consider it, given that they needed it basically to get managerial/senior engineering positions on public sector projects.
I don't disagree Tesla's marketing is dishonest as well. But if Google's system only works on predefined destinations, essentially within a controlled environment, it isn't even really in the game.

If the lane lines are hard to read in a part of Phoenix, Google can ask for them to be repainted before approving the cars for that area but everyone else just has to assume bad lane lines are something they'll contend with.

Is there an NDA these early riders will have to sign?

Do they have to provide a list of destinations ahead of time?

I feel this announcement makes it seem like these cars are ready for public use. But I don't see the evidence to suggest they really are. And as you indicate, Googlers aren't talking.
Maybe the people that stole all the login data have taken over that function.
The real way to make people drive a certain speed - is to design a road that makes people drive that speed.

It's been a really slow process, but bit by bit we are beginning to recover from the mistake of treating the design of transportation networks as a technical engineering problem rather than a social design problem.

If you want people to drive 25mph, you have to design a 25mph road. You can't treat it like an engineering problem and include a "50% safety buffer", because then you designed a 37.5mph road and that's how fast people will drive.
To put that in even more simple terms - because they like their awful laws, thank you very much.
Because that gets you fined :-P
The problem with this idea is that moving Mars to another orbit require a lot of energy, a LOT of energy!

A somewhat similar example is in "Stop Jupiter" https://what-if.xkcd.com/146/ . OK, Jupiter is much bigger, and the plan is not to stop Mars but to reduce the energy a little to put it in another orbit, but the amount of energy is astronomical.
In what country do you live, and in which Muslim community do you practice? I would imagine that these views vary widely by culture, school, and region.
It's not sarcasm
That's a great example!
"Give unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's, unto God what is God's". That kinda stuff sort of opens the way for accepting non religious laws.
Normally, you would interview someone on problems that you want to solve. You would want to hire someone that will help with business challenges by providing specific programming expertise. Requiters do keywords search for a reason.

Problem with Big 4 is that these problems are on such scale that you cannot possibly expect anyone knowing how to solve them. In the same sense your experience is irrelevant because these companies have internal tooling and frameworks that are mostly specific to problem domain.

Algorithms questions test two things:
1. How you think under pressure. (culture fit)
2. Dedication, because you need to waste weeks on preparations (corporate slave).
Thanks for the perspective; seems like, in the aggregate, it's not really worth it for professionals in our line of work. :/
A robots.txt file is not any sort of license (anti-license?). It's existence has no bearing on the question of if the IA should be allowed to do what it does. It is only intended to provide helpful information to web crawllers.

Couldn't agree more and appreciate your constructive tone in the reply. Mindfulness really has become a focus of mine very recently and definitely something that I practice while swimming.

The act of staying in the moment not worrying about the future or repeating the past in my head has significantly improved who I am.

In practice this tends to be me very deliberately feeling the water, counting my strokes, paying Dill attention to my breathing.
Well at least you know why they're tailgating you.
I think I figured out what happened. It looks like the source you were copying from was indented with five or six spaces. HN interprets two leading spaces as "code formatting," which turns off line wrapping.
I, too, would target the areas that would quickly récup the costs of the fiber I just paid out. Why deploy if people can't afford $100+/month internet service? (guessing on that price.. I pay $120 for 200mbps today)
Oh my. Audi is the engineering part of VW, VW the low quality, mass market part of the brand. Engines are developed at Audi, they are the engineers after all, VW is a logistics and support company.

Porsche is the owner of the VW group. They bought most of the controlling stock.

Since everybody uses Bosch ECU's and most of the companies knew about this cheating low temp. switch in the ECU parametrization, it is no surprise that most of them have been caught using it. It is not illegal in Europe though, because laws are different here.

The only surprise is that media is ignoring it, and blaming VW who would be the last to blame.
They'll be competing similar to Shiva Engine, it will be a mindshare battle as they aren't the first Unity competitor.

Unity is the most known and jobs and markets have sprung up around it as well as a massive asset store now exists, it also has many integrations such as apis and tools that take years to acquire.

Unreal and Epic have Tencent money and are on the way.

The OSS side of this engine is pretty interesting. Will be fun to have another competitor in this area. Xenko looks like a direct Unity competitor even down the the pricing and tiers. The big challenge is the community, asset stores and launched titles under the engine. Branding is important as well, to me Shiva and Xenko are forgettable brands, Unity and Unreal are set in minds.
If this gets more wild (and I feel it might) it could end up as a movie.
Salarymen make up a small portion of the Japanese workforce... much smaller than blue collar workers, part-time workers etc. This may be seen as THE path to success by some, but not everyone, especially in rural areas and among younger cohorts.
In a more cynical view it could be because he is actually super guilty and many of these "missteps" are because the alternatives are even worse
I don't understand why all these free open source projects are using nginx when it hides so many great features behind the premium option. HAProxy also has a lua module and you even has monitoring abilities for free unlike nginx

edit: a project like Kong could easily be done with haproxy as far as I know and you can actually monitor your server. https://getkong.org
Good news. Now they should add ACME support directly to nginx so it can get and manage TLS certificates seamlessly for you.
You're right (though I like the idea of villafying a town, which I suppose would mean filling it with large Mediterranean-style dwellings) but this sort of correction to something no one was in much danger of misunderstanding doesn't really contribute much and I suggest is best avoided unless (1) the perpetrator specifically asks for corrections, (2) there's serious danger of misunderstanding as a result of the mistake, or (3) correcting it gives the opportunity to say something genuinely interesting and relevant.
Only 95% of Mormons are in "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints".

Fundamentalist Mormons are still Mormon, and yes, 10,000 to 30,000 of them are in plural marriages.

Also, note that I didn't mean it as an insult, and I quite like large families. Even the mainstream Mormons tend to have large families.
Now, can someone please tell me who is fucking up Photobucket? It has been impossible for me to login to my account for a couple of months, even though I know the credentials are correct. I've been using imagen.one instead, but that's not what I would prefer.
During college in Indiana, a couple of us software engineers wanted to take the state's "Professional Engineer" certification exam. Just to see how we'd do. We were told plainly, "you cannot register for the PE exam because the state of Indiana does not recognize software engineers as 'real engineers'". However, if we were Electrical Engineers and wrote embedded software, that would make us a "real engineer". They explained that the certification was primarily designed for Civil and
Mechanical engineers. One guy looked into changing his major temporarily just to take the test but assumed the college administration wouldn't be thrilled about that.
FTP was older and had more widespread client support in the 90s, so you were more likely to have at least a basic client preinstalled. That's obviously moot by now since just about everything ships with a web browser and/or something like curl.

FTP has a standard way to list directories. Using HTTP that way would require you to either have a well-known index file or parse HTML looking for links which don't return text/html responses.

The downside is that FTP still has issues with firewalls – I had to troubleshoot that earlier this month, actually – and is another service to maintain if you are already running an HTTP server.

In the case of either single-file downloads or something like a Linux package manager, the URLs are well known so directory listings are irrelevant. HTTP has a number of good options for CDNs and caching, so if you care about performance or reliability that's a turn-key service.

In the cases where directory listings were more valuable, people usually wanted a richer UI than just a file listing, too, and there are tons of options for that in the web world.
The Muslim countries I've lived in are Tunisia (origin country) and the UAE.
>If the media start hyping something en mass then treat it with suspicion.

We completely agree on that. I like to dig into sources and refine my opinions all the time. I'm glad to be /around/ other people that just have different conclusions and/or perspectives given the same set of facts.
That's not true.

An average peasant in the feudalism had more free time than an average 9-5 office worker now.

In fact, the 8 hour work day is a recent feature. When capitalism arrived initially, it was much worse.

The rest of your post shows that you had an easy life, and I'm happy for you. But don't assume everybody can start a startup, travel etc. That's just not the reality out there.
You're totally right and the commas should have tipped me off to that.
YouTube Vitess releases version 2.1
Not have to deal with salt, snow plows and residual abrasive material.
There's a fairly good solution. Start charging everyone the same tax, but the amount they pay will follow the old prop 13 rules. The rest will be a special lein against the property. You may optionally pay down the lein, or simply wait until the property is sold, when the lein is settled from the profits. Then add in some exceptions for the value going down, and maybe a reduction if the extra is paid early.

Then you won't have people hold on to inventory just for the taxes, and eventually things will even out as people sell each year.
Yeah, that's the problem typically. In most large corps the DNS is broken and difficult to change.
Islam has any number of prophets actually, including Jesus. But the view in Islam appears to be that Muhammad trumps all the others because he's the only one whose message hasn't been corrupted.
Stop ignoring the context in which the violation occurred. You are treating them as two separate behaviors when one is in fact pendant on the other.

I've seen this in so many legal cases - people file appeals arguing that the law is terribly wrong and their arguments are beautifully logical but for the fact that they are asking the appeal court to forget some very salient fact.

Imagine you go to a party and pee in the punch bowl. It doesn't matter how many times you subsequently offer a great recipe for punch in a demonstrably clean bowl, nobody is going to forget about the fact that you pissed in it the first time. I apologize for employing such a crude metaphor but I am baffled by your refusal to acknowledge the context in which the investigation occurred, so I'm resorting to shocking imagery in the hope of opening your eyes to this.

The court (or similar administrative body) should not have to spell the context out over and over and over again for every bit of the case under discussion. When you read the judgement in a legal case you are expected to hold that idea in your head unless you're explicitly told that X and Y are entirely separate issues. Parsing bits of the decision out of context will lead to errors of interpretation. I don't know how to explain this any more clearly to you.
If you believe some reports, it doesn't matter what is covered in an interview; it's no better than a lottery regardless.
It's better than many in-class alternatives.

Are there any legitimate reasons why Uber would sign this agreement?

Why would a company sign an agreement with the founder of a startup about the acquisition of said startup before it even exists?

This lends credence to Google/Waymo's argument that Uber and Levandowski where scheming from the get-go. Bad optics, indeed.
I wasted so many working hours over SCO. Tons of arguments at work and reading slashdot. Oh man those were the days. :)

I am no where near as passionate about uber vs google probably because google vs uber is not as great as microsoft vs linux and the survival of opensource.

Although I agree that this is unlikely, until we are multi planetary, with at least four worlds/stations, this is not the case.
Not the only one. Whoever decided that namespaces should have "http://" needs to be fired out of a bloody cannon.
The theory of surplus value isn't really about fairness. It simply says that there must be some value above the "socially necessary labor time" required to produce commodities in order for the category of profit to exist. It's a critique in the sense that it takes the surface-level appearance of concepts like value and profit for granted as they are, then sort of reverse-engineers them to illuminate their conditions of possibility and the relationships between them. So surplus value isn't the same as profit, and in later stages of the analysis it's argued that for example "aggregate" surplus value can be transferred between industries based on those relative rates of profit without any "real" transfers taking place. It has been a little while since I really had a firm hold on the theory but if you're interested in how it's applied to describe conditions of overproduction and overproduction crises, Ernest Mandel's Late Capitalism has a good analysis of the 1980s.
The analysis was done on \Windows\explorer.exe, and it was noted as being an extreme case. The distinction is important for a couple of reasons. First, it is an extremely small part of Windows as a whole, weighing in at about 4.5 MB on disk (Windows 10 AE). Second, chances are that it is also a very small part of what people think of as Windows Explorer since it also depends upon external libraries.

While Windows may suffer from unnecessary bloat, this article is not a very good evidence in that direction. Windows itself is much (much) more than a 4.5 MB binary and the growth of Windows over the years likely has more to do with changes in technology and the market than anything else.

I also doubt that this is an indicator of sloppy software development, nor is this basic stuff. It simply indicates that the resources were added to the executable file more-or-less as is. Developers are unlikely to be concerned with the structure of the resources as long as those resources are in a format that is well understood by the software. Graphics designers are unlikely to be concerned with how the embedded data bloats the size of the executable. While stripping the excess data may seem like a basic good practice in retrospect, it is not basic nor is it sloppy in the sense that it doesn't strictly fall in the domain of the two groups responsible for handling the data.

Make the ad-hominem more subtle next time; anyway, that time it was a thread about coal pollution and jobs, it was meant as in leaving the town's offspring without jobs (not actually killing them).
Many ways to skin a cat. Design roads properly, sure. But I'm pretty confident that more aggressive ticketing would decrease speeding. Red light cameras certainly have that effect on red light running, and the negation just seems absurd to me. As a bonus, aggressive ticketing requires no new infrastructure.
So don't waste your time online. Just vacation in the Philippines and pick out a bride then. If that's what you want.
It really isn't as convenient if you have to download lots of files at one time though. FTP has mget. That's probably why FTP lives on for scientific data (NCBI, ENSEMBL, etc). Yes, you could use some tool like wget or curl to spider through a bunch of http links, but that's more work.
Well yes, the whole point of robots.txt is that it's impolite to refuse to follow it, and doing so and getting caught might get you banned from the site.
I agree, it's a lot of the reason I like distros like Arch or Alpine.

So, configure your HTTP daemon to serve directory indexes, and point it at the root of whatever tree you want to serve.
UI test automation: what challenges it brings
Usually not. When you reach max connections it does not cause problems for existing connections ie, no "complete lock ups)", it just stops allowing new connections. Also, there are normally reserved connections for postgresql superusers so you can query to find out where all the excess connections are coming from and kill them as needed.
