I also set up a tool to export your Ffffound account to http://www.wookmark.com . Note that a paid account ($20/year) is required, so I can keep the lights on. If you want to do this, create a Wookmark account and message me the usernames from both sites. While I'm writing this, my import scripts are working through a Ffffound account with 6000 images. It's a fairly straightforward process. Happy Thursday.
Wouldn't a (easy?) solution for a bounty hunter be to exploit a security vulnerability in the drone to track the drone & user?

Or DJI could track these drones themselves from the mothership, uploading the day's GPS history every time they call home... not sure if/why they don't already do this. Would eliminate much of the need for a bounty.
If you don't do platform-dependent development (low-level[* ] c/c++ or assembly development) then you're going to see pretty much no difference.

The main difference is that you get a 8-cores machine with 200GB ssd and 8 gb ram for the price of a 1 core, 1GB ram, 30GB ssd on digitalocean and similar. Scaleway is still developing some extra features [* * ], for most hobbyist to medium scale usage, i think it's going to be just fine (plus, the monetary savings).

It is to be said that each of those 8 cores are likely to be individually slower than an usual x86 core, but you get 8 instead of 1 and they're fully yours: you don't have to share cpu time with other users, as it happens on pretty much all vps providers: you're renting a whole machine.

[* ] = applications written in C/C++ will work flawlessly, as long as they don't exploit x86-specific features. If you're doing web stuff, you're unlikely to hit this spot.

[* * ] = see C14, an S3-like storage service.
7 Trends for App Store Optimization
I'd say there is not much point to Category Theory if we where to restrict ourselves to a single category. For instance Monoids are categories (with a single object) that is not the category of functions. Another set are the Kleisli Categories[1] that are equivalent to monads.

You mention Applicative Functors, which form another (different) category where arrows from a to b are on the form `f (a -> b)` and composition and identity laws of these arrows are equivalent to the applicative laws.

Seinfeld-sourced paper gets into legit science journal
It's not C# (as a language), which is benign and a good actor in the set, it's the stack. Ever try running a Windows / IIS and SQL Server stack in the cloud -- do it only if you want to lose sleep nights and spend weekends away from the family. The language is fine... Let's hope the move to Core and Linux will take the language and the .NET technology to a better platform, but right now? It's a disaster as a robust Cloud platform.

Windows and IIS is simply a BAD, BAD, BAD server technology as a whole. It's ill-equipped to to be robust and fault tolerant. Its simply the weak part of that .NET narrative, no way around it right now...
One could make that argument in a hospital environment, but eventually patients go home. While they're at home, some telemedicine might save their lives. Should we expect e.g. pacemaker patients to know how to set up a VPN? Or maybe you're just saying that pacemakers must be controlled through direct contact only... that's on the device designers then, not on local network admins.
But unless you control all client code, you can't check the client code at server compile time.

You're still breaking and forcing a refactor by all your clients and there's no way to track that with type safety.

That said, this use case seems to be for a single web front end and go back end but that part is left out of the title.

Protos are fine, google likes protos, gRPC works for Google because they have that insane CI system that builds every project at once...but any schema would work and you can be generating and checking against a schema for a JSON API as well. You don't need to move past REST and JSON to get what you're asking for.
Nice work!

I love projects like this, because I think most of us would benefit from re-implementing our dev tools (at least partially) to develop a better understanding of how they work.
I'm not sure why you need to modify your serialization or protocol to get type safety.

I've been using NSwag (https://github.com/NSwag/NSwag) to generate TypeScript clients from .ASP.NET controllers and it works great. It can generate TypeScript request/response handlers, and interfaces or classes for any public facing models.
Nice work! This seems like it could be a fun weekend project.

Does this by default, make Copperfield the greatest living magician? If he can trip up Teller, that's saying a lot.

I also read he was mugged at gunpoint a few years back and used used sleight of hand to save his wallet. I'm both impressed and horrified by that. I don't think antagonizing a armed criminal was within his interest, but at the same time its crazy he pulled that off under that pressure.

I also have a small interest in magic and a little research goes a long way. I recently saw acclaimed Chicago magician Dennis Watkins perform up close and most of those tricks were obvious to me, I mean his showmanship was excellent but once you understand how common magic works, its really hard to be fooled by it anymore. I was stumped by perhaps two or three tricks. If you like magic, don't read about how its done. It completely ruins the experience on a certain level. On a 'enjoying the craft of others' level, Watkins was unbelievably impressive and recommend him to anyone interested in magic.

This sounds totally like a squeeze. Google is telling startups "Cut us in if you want to play in this game." I like that they're cutting the lawyers out of the picture though. Instead of waiting till the company gets big, suing, and then getting their take they can now just collect up front and save time and lawyer fees.
REST + JSON is simple, easy to debug, and it does the job. Web clients speak JSON, servers speak JSON, humans can read JSON usually. JSON can be gzipped so you get some benefit there.

gRPC is another large pile of foreign C code that's essentially a black box. If there is a buffer overflow there that your code hits only somehow, you'd have to know how to debug it and fix it.

Also chances are you are not Google, Facebook or Amazon , and you don't really do BigData just your know, regular data.
Thank you for that! I'll debug it now to see what's gone wrong, very strange.
The description of 'Textalyzer' sounds dishonest. I can't tell if this is a fake product being sold to unsophisticated police agencies, or deceiving the public about what is really happening.

The only way I can see it working is for the owner of the phone to login and allow a full backup via USB. This requires much more than "tap one button" and "90 seconds"

Even then I am not sure that iOS or Android will provide all of the data they are claiming to collect.

> "They can simply just tap one button ... and it will process, about 90 seconds or so, and it will show what the last activities were — again that could be a text message and so on — with a time stamp,"

> The device would display a summary of what apps on the phone were open and in use, he says, as well as screen taps and swipes. "For example, if it was a WhatsApp message, or a call, it will indicate what the source was, the time stamp, and then what the direction of the communication was — so if it was an outgoing call versus an incoming call."

I wrote something like this when I was in high school because I got tired of powerpoint being hard to work with across platforms (Linux...).

I've yet to come across someone who has been "happy" with their benefits package. I don't even take advantage of mine because it's such a large chunk for a single person, and yields no incentives - these I would likely consider tangible benefits (aside from the obvious). I could see it being nice if I had a family though, but most people I've spoken to use their significant others benefits package.

The one thing I hope to always have wherever I work is flexible working hours. I very much dislike the stigma of "oh you're not first into the office!". Maybe it's just me though who has ran into this.
Thank you! Right now, the only clear way to do this is by dragging a picture from another tab (as already mentioned @waldfee). But I'll think about adding an URL field as it might be more convenient!
I'm not sure about ZFS (and it could be complicated - there is a problem with Scaleway servers that they use their own kernels so you have to mess with kexec if you want to run your own), but one can certainly do the same with LVM or even "bare" device-mapper.

It's non-trivial, though. At least if one haven't dealt with that stuff before.

I'm pretty sure that's not what he said. He used an argument that is not about how much one can express directly, but about dynamic typing nature of JSON.
On big, big, big advantage here is that, unlike Mars for instance, robots on the Moon are literally 1.5 seconds away (3 seconds round-trip), as far as radio communications go. Remote-control in real-time isn't that hard. You'll have to go a little bit slow because of the 1.5-second delay in seeing what the robot sees, but it's perfectly manageable. The same just isn't true on Mars because it's around 5 minutes away (for a 10-minute round-trip).

This means you can send up big robots that have little to no intelligence or automation, and are not much more than giant R/C cars with webcams. Seriously, we could just launch regular heavy construction equipment (earthmovers, bulldozers, etc.) rigged with cameras and remote controls; the real problem is the power source, since all those things run on fossil-fuel-burning engines here. So the challenge is making versions of these things which are battery-powered and can somehow be recharged with solar power.

Oh yeah, I guess the other big difficulty is dealing with the Moon dust (regolith), which is notorious for getting in everything and fouling things up. But that shouldn't be that hard to deal with; our heavy equipment (and even things like cars) are already designed to handle harsh environments and dust. We'd probably need different elastomeric seals though since there's no atmosphere on the Moon.

Edit: fixed Earth-to-moon and Earth-to-Mars delay times
Used to handle that, not sure why not anymore. I'll definitely fix it up. I'm planning on making it so that it tries to guess what you mean (essentially first auto-suggestion) if you don't click on it.
Guessing that China's government regulation of drones is a lot more relaxed than the US, in which case it becomes a market-driven approach - it's bad PR to have drones disrupting flights, so the business is investing private capital to prevent further incidents harming public perception of drones until the law can catch up.

Ford doesn't need to put out bounties because there's adequate regulation to punish drunk drivers. However, in the early days of motoring there was definitely private investment into shaping the discussion around cars - jaywalking was invented by automakers and heavily promoted to shift the role of roads from being primarily for pedestrians to primarily for cars: https://www.citylab.com/transportation/2012/04/invention-jay...

Rents aren't high because fat cats are charging more money. Rents are high because of supply and demand. That's literally all there is to it. Someone is going to get the house and someone isn't, and the one who gets it will be the one offering more money. The only thing the fat cats change is what proportion of the money goes to which people. The amount of money comes from supply and demand.

Are you saying that because both parties benefit then neither party can be to blame? Confirming, not sure based on your wording.

If so, that assumes that both parties are going into the trade negotiations on equal footing. I don't think I'm the only one who would argue that's not the case in a great many rentseeker:rentee or owner:employee relationships. Even discarding any social or economic pressures in the current climate, the power of the rentseeker and owner allows them to shape the environment into one that benefits them more (see: lobbying and politics in the USA).
There are no other companies that match the functionality and price combination that Cloudflare provides. For most businesses, it's a better value regardless of centralization. It's unfortunate there isn't stronger competition even though Cloudflare continues to innovate.

Ok, lets switch this around. You just rented your new apartment, they didn't change the locks from previous tenant. Now, by default everyone knows you should change locks to include the owner, manager of property, and renter. I, the previous tenant decided to stroll by the house one day, I realize that the doors are still easily unlocked by my key, so I walk in and poke around. Realizing that this is a security risk, so following your logic, it's completely sane for me to destroy the house and prove that it's a risk. Before you say, that's different, MFG will replace a device, i'm going to argue ok sure, they'll replace it, by that same virtue isn't that what insurance is for? They'll replace the property.

Bottom line, vigilantism has a cost and picking and choosing morality of ideals based on your sole opinion is neither appropriate or legal. laws exist for a reason.
From my experience is a bloated old technology, with terrible UI and even worse developer experience.

It is also unbelievably customizable, with one click plugins that even your grandma can add, and practically anything you can wish for already built for you.

Graduate Internships So Close to Summer?
Is it too late to expect I might be able to snag a summer internship?

My original summer plans fell through as of yesterday and I am trying to evaluate my options. To give you an idea of what I am working with:

I am finishing up the second year of a Computational Science PhD in a pretty great program in a well regarded University, and I have a couple years of industry experience as a software developer (C++ and python mostly). I am a US citizen in the US (seems to matter from looking at what applications ask for).

Is there a way I can still swing a Software Dev or Data Science/Analysis internship for the summer, or am I starting too late in the game? Additionally, if I still do have a shot, do you have any suggestions for how best to approach this? I'm not sure if job boards are worth their time or not.
