Funny story, so in 2008 I was admitted as a refugee. I flew from Amman, Jordan and landed in Chicago. Everyone that had an IOM bag had to go to a designated area to get their fingerprints taken. So when it was my turn, the officer took my index fingerprint, waited a few seconds then gave me a look, a WTF look, but didn't say anything. A couple of minutes later, two homeland security officers showed up out of nowhere and escorted me to a holding area. I wanted to find out what was going on because I was the only one out of the entire group (100 people or so) that was getting this special treatment, but the officers ignored me. I waited, and waited, and waited, then when I asked again ~ four hours later I was told "Don't worry, you're going in either way". Long story short, The FBI had a record on me because I was a translator for the US Army in Baghdad, but the record didn't say whether I was one of the good guys or the bad guys, so they had to contact the FBI to see what's up. Fun times..
Couldn't we train it on top of resumes itself? With every resume, you know where they worked before and you have the data of where they worked until then. Granted, it would be muddled with noisy data (like skills, etc that they didn't have in the past). It wouldn't be very hard to collect enough resumes as training data.
Partnerships with whom? Several different warring tribes that want to gain control over the other or achieve independence? Morocco or Jordan maybe, the rest of them most likely not.
Just because some students don't aspire to go to a German university doesn't mean the quality of education would be any worse. Many of my close friends (and me personally as well) did their undergrad in Germany and then a semester abroad and/or their Master's in top-10 universities in the US. I have yet to hear from anyone that they felt in any way more challenged in the US (typically the opposite). Yes studying in the US is great fun compared to Germany (sports, extracurriculars, nice spirit of community, ...) but in terms of learning I doubt there is much of a difference
I would tend to agree with you, especially because the season is supposed to have more than 10 episodes (13 or so).
Also, probably a very tiny fraction of people already paying for Netflix would choose to go the pirating route.
Could you give me a practical example of how you would use one to solve this problem that couldn't be just as easily solved without one?
Considering how big the Chinese population is in Fremont, Cupertino, San Mateo, and Daly City, I'm surprised there aren't more approved restaurants on your list.

But then again, rents are outrageous, so maybe it's just impossible to open a restaurant as an immigrant who is good at cooking.
I'm a graduating senior in India, interested in studying math as an undergraduate.

Isn't QNX's realtime features the reason why it's been integrated into a lot of automative systems?
At the risk of sounding nitpicky, this isn't the only way. You can go into a post office and grab a yellow "change of address" card. Fill it out, sign it, and drop it in the letter box. Forwarding usually kicks in two business days later.
Does QNX really have a license that interferes with software running on it? Just being not-open/free isn't a problem for running GNU stuff.
The Reddit dedicated to this showed there was an article in the huffpo and a Twitter account (something like @fyrefraud) that have been screaming for months that this festival was an obvious scam. If you know what to look for, a lot of outcomes are not some giant mystery. In isolation, human behavior is actually quite predictable; only in the aggregate does it get difficult to predict.

Edit: I went through my browser history and the Twitter handle is correct.the article was actually on BuzzFeed but it's been scrubbed since last night. The author's name is Madeline Scott and the title started with "is fyre festival the next big music event or..." Maybe there's a cahe of the article somewhere?
We'll be better off building nuclear reactors, thank you. The social and political challenges are much lower and so are the risks.
Doesn't this whole counter-comment assume that advertising is the only reasonable source of revenue? The HN crowd (projecting from myself) has already given up on digital advertising and knows that even the best players are having a hard time making money with it. That doesn't make print any more reliable. For a magazine like nautilus, it's probably best to become successful as a subscription-based digital magazine, guarantee high-quality content, establish rapport with their customers, and then move to print if they want to rake in that extra advertisement dollars. That was the point of the parent comment, not "print sucks/digital rules!", but "digital is the right way to start a new magazine".
World’s First All-Electric VTOL Jet Tested – Are Flying Cars Here?
That's a good point, but the German approach still seems more attractive to me:

- To learn German and pass the preparatory program for foreign students (Studienkolleg) would take 18 months. With skilled immigration you generally need 3 or 4 years work experience in addition to a degree.

- When applying for a job in a rich country, a degree from a local university counts much more than a degree from a third-world country so graduate salaries would likely be more.

- A foreign student at a German university can work and earn enough to pay living costs. Therefore the initial EUR 9000 is more like a loan than an expense.
Some of those schools are unlike the others. It makes absolute sense to go $250k in debt for an MIT or Harvard degree, makes less but still some sense for Tufts and Olin, and makes no sense at all for the rest. And the average college that Americans experience is a 2 year community college; very, very few attend schools of the caliber you're mentioning. It makes no sense to lump all these different schools together when arguing for your position on tuition prices and their effects on students and families.
Sometimes the vision system is the bottleneck, but that's less of a problem today with abundant compute power. Sometimes it's that fast motion creates vibration in the system. Most of these systems are basically "find target, move to target". They're not continuously tracking the target and end effector as they get closer. Sometimes it's just weak mechanical design. Looking closely at those videos, you see duct tape and cable ties. They haven't done the mechanical engineering yet for a fast system.

For production, they need faster, cheaper, long life, maintainable, more adaptable to different plants, and pressure-washable. That's a lot of mechanical engineering.

If you see someone (an adult presumably) stepping on a flag, and then days or weeks later you see them being taken away, you may start thinking those FBI guys know about everything you do. Kinda like with Santa Claus and kids, so you better not do anything wrong.
It does have the look of a scam to steal the money. I mean if they were in any way decent you'd think they'd have shipped food and some of the other stuff they promised.

Financially, the big problem with new cars is you lose a decent fraction of car worth the second you drive off the lot. So you're paying a premium to get one that has never been owned before. Further, insurance is likely going to be more expensive.

Used cars, while more economical, have the issue that you don't know how the prior owner and/or drivers treated the cars. Hence, I would ask for a Carfax or owner history and favor a car that was previously leased over one that was a rental. Leases usually have pretty low mileage because they get expensive for the person leasing when they go over the limit. Also the leases often offer free maintenance, so you have a good chance of getting a car in good mechanical condition.

I'd aim for a two year old previously leased car. Subarus are great mid to higher range cars while Hondas are nice for the lower to mid range. You'll get a good price, a car that has a good chance of being treated properly and having lower mileage, and a better insurance rate.
My apologies, I didn't mean to imply that you dislike rich people, or anything about you personally! My comments were just reflecting on my own experiences of feeling antipathy towards those with more and trying to figure out what's productive and what's unhealthy.
You left out Millbrae. I don't think the grandposter tried very hard. There's definitely a number of proper Chinese places in that corridor, but the average ones do suck. That or the in-laws are looking for a specific region in China that isn't well represented in the bay.

There's a reasonable argument to be made that Chinese food in the San Gabriel Valley in LA is better than in China, since you can find a large number of regional cuisines all in one place, and the raw ingredient quality is higher when compared to mainland China.
No, because even if this account is real, most rich people do not agree with this person. This is one possibly-real person being a bad person. No need to spin that into a theory about class hatred.
I mean... I hate to be such a realist in this regard, but you just wished yourself out of like 95% of the industry, right?
Please elaborate. what do you mean by "anti-white" and "misandry"?
That's nice, but sad. Until QNX 6.5, there was a full windowed desktop environment, with the Photon window manager.

I used QNX on the desktop when developing a DARPA Grand Challenge vehicle from 2003-2005. Back then, at QNX 6.21, you had the window manager, the Eclipse development environment, Firebird (Firefox before the name change), and Thunderbird. Then QNX marketing cut off the free version, and all the free software projects stopped making builds for QNX. Desktop usability went downhill from there.

The desktop environment had very consistent performance, because QNX doesn't swap. (It's a real time system, after all.) I could run the real-time vehicle control system and simulator at a higher priority than the desktop and not have it miss a timeout while doing compiles and web browsing at a non real time priority.

I miss QNX. It's much simpler and saner than Windows or Linux. Yet all of POSIX is available. It's what home routers and similar devices ought to be running instead of Linux.
Despite the fact that the concept of them is to be local to each community, with CCs, as with four year schools, you have to research the specific school and your intended course of study to determine the value. They are different, and the experience can be very different from school to school in the same course of study, or from course of study to course of study in the same school.

CCs tend to have much better faculty:student ratios and a much stronger teaching focus than many four year schools (including UCs) will, especially for lower-division courses. As a result, you can, with the right program, get a better lower-division education at a CC, than at a UC, even one that is strong in your course of study.
I am now looking at the Red programming language [1] for exactly this, but it does not have the libraries of C++ or Tcl. Still it is under 1 meg complete with libraries and it is homoiconic, cross-platform, and has a REPL and a systems language Red/System for going low level. The GUI and UI DSL and drawing DSL work on Windows and Mac for now, with Linux close behind.

Both of those are in very well-understood domains, essentially commoditizing a market that's existed for at least a decade. You can build Linux with a distributed volunteer team, because people know how to build an OS, they started out just implementing the POSIX standard, and there's a large quantity of programmers familiar with OS fundamentals and recent research. You probably could not have built, say, AT&T UNIX with a distributed team.

Similarly, web programming was over a decade old when Rails was started. You could build Rails as an open-source project. You couldn't build, say, LoudCloud, or Netscape, or Google, or ViaWeb, or any of the other web 1.0 companies where the process of building webapps was not well-understood.

Virtually all profits in the tech industry are made by companies with a short-term monopoly on the technology involved. By the time a problem-domain is solved well by an open-source project, by definition, there is no money in it. Ergo, teams that want to make a lot of money will work on projects where communication costs make remote work very challenging.

thoughts on tumbling/turning the parts on the belt once identified for more pictures? It wouldn't add anything to the sort speed but it'd get you way more pictures. Thinking of that machine that tumbled dice automatically. Does the addition/removal of the belt in the background come into the recognition? Otherwise in air shots from a tumble tower or belt with trip on it would get you a lot more images.

I feel like a good compromise is to read widely, but when a book strikes you as worthy of greater focus, to reread it at least another two times (in the Mortimer Adler sense as described in How to Read a Book).

Perhaps scheduling rereading in a spaced repetition sort of way, like doubling the interval of time before you reread a text every time, might be useful.

I think the idea of enormous batteries storing megawatts of power is potentially more dangerous than nuclear plants. At least reactors have control rods, but what do you do with a huge battery with an internal short? And compared to stores of coal, oil, or gas, at least they won't spontaneously combust like batteries have the potential to.
I wanted to pull down QNX and contrast it to what little thing I had built from CS452 course from UW, compare whatever I had build to the full blown production variant. Also attempt to add SMP on mine and throw it on a PandaBoard.

QNX was prohibited from giving source out once it was acquired by Blackberry :(

I'm not sure how anyone can try out what OP has posted, is there any source we can hack on?
The big one is a local populace - even the non-technical folks - who is very willing to try out crazy ideas and give them a go, at least once. That's why Silicon Valley has a reputation for crazy nutjobs, but it's also why so many crazy but eventually world-changing ideas start here. Most people here are at least willing to meet for coffee and try out your half-baked app idea, even if they forget about it an hour later. In many other places in the country, you won't even get that far.
Due to network effects and the 'discovery' problem, content on the Web will likely continue to need content silos and content aggregators to expand reach. This alone isn't a problem -- or maybe it is, depending on your point-of-view, but isn't equivalent to the issues raised in the parent post.

Equal access to pipes regardless of the nature of transmitted content -- net neutrality, or as you phrase, the libre aspect is a necessary prerequisite for mass-market and indie content to both have a chance to thrive -- and not just your home ISP's preferred partners.

I get what you're saying, but both of them matter: the point is to get the same playing field, and not sidestep it with either a lower or higher price -- either zero-rating, or by charging more for a broader range of access.

What part do you think is unrealistic in this?
The wishlist was a bit arrogant. If it is so difficult to get women to work in tech may be it's not worth the effort for the founders to make it happen. It's already difficult to get people to work together and then you get a list of demands like this, it's just too much to handle for 90% of companies.
Snobbery exists everywhere. Programmers snobbishly complain about bad programmers. Workers snobbishly complain about people who hire workers to do their work for them. Rich complain about poor. Poor complain about rich. Everyone wants to feel superior and snobbery provides that.
There's also Lazarus in this category.
The ISPs are not trying to help you diversify your content sources, they want in on the content provider's take. Ideally they want to be the content monopoly themselves. Barring that they'll insert themselves in the middle as the gatekeeper and kingmaker charging both sides of the market. Either way consumers lose.

Over the last decade, QNX management managed to piss off everybody needed to support their ecosystem - open source developers, point-of-sale systems people, robotics people, hobbyists, and even industrial real-time developers. All the money is is selling to high volume markets, and that meant automotive and Blackberry devices. But that focus cost them brand awareness and a pool of people familiar with the thing.

I hope it gets open sourced when Blackberry goes bust.

> I've heard different things about getting a clearance, such as depending on the company and job position it could speed up the process altogether.

My experience has been the opposite. During college, I had an internship at a defense contractor and I was the only Asian intern there (out of maybe 20 people). There were a couple of black guys and the rest were caucasian. IME, people of color had the hardest time obtaining a clearance. It took around 2.5 years for me and around 2 years for one of my black coworkers. The turnaround time for the white guys was a lot smaller.

I think this experience was for the best though - I left shortly afterward, because I won't stay where I'm not wanted.
Indo-Chinese is barely derived from/a changed version of traditional Chinese.

As an Indian who eats traditional Chinese food from various parts of China regularly, I can confirm that there literally isn't any sauce that tastes like Indo-Chinese cuisine's sauces. Indo-Chinese seems like Indian food with ingredients from Chinese food added which makes it a changed version of traditional Indian food rather than a changed version of traditional Chinese food.

One of my life's goals is to get one of my friend from NE China to eat Manchurian food in Mumbai. Results will be interesting.
I guess the part about not wanting to work for the demographic that currently dominates the industry...

"If it’s plastered with pictures of white guys in flannel with beards, that’s a red flag. If the exec team is all white men who look like they could be my father that’s another one."

Granted, flannel shirted beardo's set off red flags for me too.
And, even then, there is an undeniable Western influence on quite a bit of "modern" Cantonese food, even in Hong Kong itself.
