I'm confused why you put scare quotes around "historical character" -- it's a real phenomenon and a real concern. There are places where historical character is what drives the demand so high to start with. Sure, you could fit more people into the historical district... If you knocked down all the historical construction and basically removed all charm that's attracting people there in the first place. And one could always invoke tourism into this argument also. Those same districts also tend to be the ones that tourists want to see, precisely because it's different from what they know.
Good ones are spectacularly cheap. 10x developers are a real thing, but I've only very rarely heard of anyone who makes 10x salary as an individual contributor. Those folks are names most in this community would know.
This has become pretty proverbial for questioning human judges' objectivity, but another interpretation has been suggested: possibly different kinds of matters were commonly scheduled for morning and afternoon sessions (for example, maybe defendants represented by counsel, or those expected to enter a plea bargain, were commonly seen before lunch).

I forgot where I read this point, but it might imply that the judges' hunger is not necessarily the only factor leading to the different outcome.
Awesome. I really like keeping two separate GUI toolkits in the docker container for my webservice. I don't print, like ever, but it's good to know i could hook up a lineprinter and do hard logs of every web request. Oh, and the CORBA and RMI registires. So comforting to know i have those options if i need them.

ASICBOOST doesn't seem to be as big of a deal as it's been made out to be. $2M in potential annual savings for a company, not the $100M greg claimed.

Hm the terminators are much like shell, e.g.

# synchronous
sleep 1 ;
sleep 2 ;

# parallel
sleep 1 &
sleep 2 &
wait
wait

The results have to be files... in shell you think of the file system as your "variables", so everything is somewhat global.

It took just a few moments to find out if $30K is actually fair and progressive. College grads average around $30K more per year in compensation than high school grads. These degrees are already highly subsidized. So tax payers, including those with only high school degrees, are paying for people to become educated and thus make more money, with the hope that some sort of trickle down economics will make it better for those without college degrees. I'd tongue in cheek call this highly regressive.

SegWit contains copyrighted code from the privately funded company BlockStream...

Despite CTO Grerg Maxwell making a "Pledge" to only use the patents "defensively" there is nothing stopping the company from trying to monetize their patents on a portion of the Bitcoin code once the Code is implemented.

Do you have a cite for either of these? Someone mentioned them downthread. It sounds ridiculous that someone would commit code into the Bitcoin client which some third party has copyrighted (what OSS project permits this?) and I can't find any evidence that Blockstream holds any relevant patents. I can only find them saying once that they don't [0].

I downvoted you because saying a bunch of false stuff confidently seems really bad, but I will take it away if it seems like I was wrong.

[0]: http://bitcoinist.com/adam-back-no-patents-segwit/
I think you're being downvoted because your "close analogy" compares the lowest common denominator of burgers, where the main value is speed, to a company that purports to offer the highest tier of professional developer computers, where the main value is quality of experience.

Do you plan to open source code? Many people could join and help building this tool
Wouldn't a bit-sliced implementation of AES be guaranteed constant time, at the cost of some speed?
1. Sounds like you don't understand opensource licensing.

2, 3. What patents exist for segwit that Blockstream owns?

4. Why?

5. Their code is already in Bitcoin. They have a bunch of the core developers on their payroll.

6. How does it get around anything? Can you explain the difference between a soft fork and a hard fork and why the later is better?
> As long as you're not building your own SD-WAN service you're golden.

Thanks! Running our own SD-WAN service seems a lot like opening a cute little coffee shop: A fine way to spend a lot of money with no result.

There is a third option, which is also customer-centric: Allow the customer to run their own SD-WAN.
As long as you keep the keys not in HSM, that'll be true. Should also require the use of TPM for storing keys..
You said, and I quote: "No MBA was EVER designed for the R&D part of building a company".

This is garbage. Unmitigated, sweeping, unknowing drivel. I understand your claim perfectly well, and you are flat wrong, and apparently from a position of zero awareness. I can correct you authoritatively because a) I have actually completed an MBA, and b) it was one that included comparative studies of R&D processes in the case work and a team-based competitive simulation of managing R&D processes. Along with a toolkit of knowledge that made company formation and launch much easier. This has, as I say, all been super useful in actually building my business.

Moving the goalposts to some nineteenth-century context and claiming it's the same thing is, as I said, simply doubling down on the wrong. Also irrelevant.

In the GCM case, it's also because the polynomial hash in GHASH wants fast polynomial multiplication, which PCLMULQDQ provides, and which you want (unsafe) lookup tables for otherwise.
Normally I scorn suggestions like this. But I have had times in my life where I had to live with cockroaches and I really do have a visceral response to this worthy product's name. Seriously it's the only reason I haven't tried it myself. Dumb, I know, but there it is.

We work with top researchers, medical institutions, and biotechs, and have processed samples from all seven continents (and space!).

We're currently looking for generalist engineers across multiple positions, including both those who are backend- and frontend-leaning. Our stack includes Python, Rust, and ES6 Javascript, and we write everything from D3 visualizations to low-level bioinformatics algorithms.

Challenges include: (1) developing novel algorithms for analyzing complex microbial communities; (2) working with terabytes of genomic data; (3) building scientifically reproducible analyses suitable for both research and the clinic; and (4) supporting scientists and developers building on our platform with extensible APIs.

We are based in San Francisco and offer a competitive salary, meaningful above-market equity, and the chance to be an early employee in a well-positioned startup. Benefits include full medical, dental, and vision coverage, a flexible vacation policy and relocation assistance if moving to the Bay Area. We're also willing to sponsor a visa for the right candidate.

The article claimed:

> That is the end of June for non-Intelspeak people, they will officially issue this guidance then along with OEM disclosures.

We'll know in two months whether the above claim is true or false.
Sure.

But even great quarterbacks struggle if the O-line is dysfunctional.

And you definitely wouldn't be better off with 6 star quarterbacks than 1 average quarterback and 5 O-line players.
It's about a single year's difference in income between the average college grad and the average high school diploma. If someone told me I could invest something with a 100% return every year for the rest of my life, I'd likely not complain if there was a steep minimum buy in.

And I didn't claim it was insignificant only that it's what low end cars cost these days - which might be a bit off but not by much.
Hey HN! We've built a way to generate an SSH key on your phone and use it from your computer such that the private key never leaves the phone. We were inspired by the threat model of USB HSMs like the Yubikey and set out to build a free, public source, and easier to use BYOD alternative. Looking forward to your questions!
ElegantDB - Named after C. elegans

In reference to radioresistance: While an LD50 has been reported for wild type C. elegans individuals, an upper lethal limit has not been established, rather "nearly all animals were alive with no indication of excess lethality up to 800 Gy, the highest dose... measured."

Yes. (I work there too)
I work for a social services agency, and my guesstimate is that 70% of the managers think that zip codes are the answer to all their spatial analysis problems -- they are very easy to collect, and they feel right. These managers don't really have any training in geography, so it isn't exactly surprising, but I think there is a pretty strong committment to zip codes as the unit of analysis because it is the one thing they know and think they understand.

For the folks who in this thread say "just use a point map of occurrences and you would have seen the problem" you are right in this case, but it isn't really enough in most cases.

For one, the boundary of the city limit needs to be shown to see the correlation; perhaps one should map the point occurrences a la Snow, and then overlay all the boundaries you have (mosquito district, city boundary, water district boundary, county, etc...).

Additionally, a point map doesn't tell you rates of occurence, for that you need a denominator, or you can't calculate things like number of occurences divided by total population. One poster mentioned Census Tracts, and I would agree those should be the default boundary, subject to more investigation -- tracts correpsond well to "natural" boundaries, they are mostly consistent over census decades, they are mostly consistent with population (~5k), they nest perfectly with other census boundaries, and they are the smallest geography for which you can get mostly the full suite of population characteristics like education from the ACS.

For some reason tracts feel just wrong to people. I have managers who reject zip codes, but then fixate on weird systems like pixels or equal area hexagons or whatever for which you can't get denominator data and which don't correspond to anything real. I don't understand, though I don't think in public policy / social work education anybody bothers to teach you shit about GIS or Census data unless you know to ask specifically.
Anyone could get a schematic of their Apple ][ and crack the case. It wasn't until the Mac that they stopped treating customers like humans with tools.

Ask HN: What do you wish you knew when you started your career?
The CS crowd at Gonzaga University have been putting together a guide for students searching for internships and full-time positions: https://github.com/gu-app-club/lets-learn-jobs (or github pages version: https://gu-app-club.github.io/lets-learn-jobs/)

Unfortunately, we haven't really had advice from real engineers or hiring managers, so it's basically the blind leading the blind.

When you first got into field, what do you wish you knew?
Can you go into more detail why? I'm curious.
The system that demands reviewers and writers don't get paid, while journal publishers increase prices, is broken. Perhaps the industry should pay its contributors.

Gretzky is great example because he was not the best player because he scored the most. He was the best because just him being on the ice lead to others scoring as well. Just being out there he was able to help the rest of the team score as well. Contrast this with a player like Kobe Bryant who was a great individual player but horrible team player. Kobe did not get along with his team mates and other than the points he put up on the board Kobe did not really contribute much to the Lakers. Kobe was such a ball hog that they refer to a missed shot that is rebounded and scored by the offense as a kobe assist because it was only way he was going to give up the ball

I am a bit surprised if this is new information to anyone who has managed teams and/or thought seriously about the challenges that job has to face. When ever I hear an executive making the assumption that "software engineers" are a fungible resource and they will just move 6 over from the project that is on track and humming along to the group that is behind and in trouble I know they are clueless about managing high performance teams. Every team needs a mix of people and when done well the talents and skills of the individual members complement each other and create an effective whole. Too many people trying to drive, or too many people unwilling to drive as an example can both leave the team floundering and unproductive.

When someone asks me what I think their priority should be as a manager, their day to day job if you will, it is looking for ways to improve this spread of talents to minimize overlap and cover gaps.
because its often a canard in many areas for "no new development so we can artifically maintain a shortage, and keep our property values sky high".

Sorry but your property values and neighbourhood appearance shouldnt be winning out against people literally being unable to live inside cities because they have comitted the crime of being too poor.
Be convenient if all the examples had it for those of us idly pasting stuff in while code compiles :-)
> I don't think (?) I said AOT programs don't start any faster than JIT compiled programs.

You're right; I paraphrased poorly. I think my point stands--there's no reason an AOT compiled Java Hello World should be slower than a Go Hello World, which is nearly 3 times faster than the JVM version on my machine.

> Gradle is usually run from the command line, so surely that supports my point?

I assumed that Gradle was slow to start for JIT warmup and the like. It's hard to believe that daemonizing is the performance solution if the bottleneck is in the application (for example, if file parsing is the bottleneck, the natural solution would be to cache the parse result). Maybe my assumption is bad?
A lot of people go to McDonald's because they yearn for their signature hamburger, a Big Mac. In fact some people might leave a fully stocked kitchen to go eat one. that's all I meant. it considerably cheapens the experience if you can get the big mac in a bottle -- and mcdonad's is making a bad business decision by allowing that product on grocery shelves.
Definitely theft.
