> P.S. It's called ’statistics’.

No, it's not. Read Breiman's "Statistical Modeling: The Two Cultures."

http://www2.math.uu.se/~thulin/mm/breiman.pdf

"Statistics" has largely been concerned with the "data modelling culture" Breiman talks about; a lot of data science is focused on algorithmic modelling, things like neural nets, random forests, and so on. A lot of these techniques have been refined outside of modern statistics because of statistic's focus on data modelling.

This also ignores all of the things that fall outside of the purview of the modelling steps altogether, things like data cleaning, data engineering, and so on. All of those are properly "data science" but often fall outside of what's in a statistics textbook.

If you are going to do data science, you should know statistics. You should know a lot of it. But that is far from the only thing you should know.

As to your larger point... yeah, well, jobs allow people to eat and get health insurance and all that, so it's understandable that OP might want to be able to do those things and not just apply it for his own pleasure. My take on that is that it's hard, both to acquire the skills needed and to signal to employers that you have them. If you're going that route, you need to build a solid portfolio of work. Kaggle might be a good place to start.

Not relying on package manager does not imply that they rewritten all the functionality provided by relevant packages. They may still use 3rd party libraries but instead of adding dependency to package manager, they may pull their sources in build script or copy the sources into their own source tree.

Sorry, I was being a bit snarky there (if you make the bold keywords clickable, it of course obviates the need for the command prompt - but the command prompt is fun in and of itself, even if it's more cumbersome to use).
This point gets made a lot. "Person/Group X doesn't believe in the right to privacy/free expression/due process/whatever so we shouldn't extend rights to those people."

If it's a right, you have it just by being human; it's not given to you as a reward in exchange for good behavior. And there's a good reason for that, because such loopholes are ripe for abuse.

Remarkably, people can label and truly believe ANYONE is a facist. When Bush was president, people compared him to Hitler. When Obama was president, people compared him to Hitler. Now Trump is Hitler. I've heard people non-ironically compare Steve Jobs to Hitler. Comparing an Apple CEO to history's most notorious genocidal dictator, in complete earnestness.

Do we want us, a crazy bunch of humans that for the most part seem to be unable to differentiate between an idea we don't like and genocide, deciding who is deserving enough to have rights? Privacy is a complicated issue, and I don't think it would be hard to paint all but the most zealous of advocates as being soft of privacy and therefore undeserving. Not a path I hope we go down.

It does, because it means once the conservatives agree on something they have more sway to vote it in. And at this point in time I am tired of listening to Westminster fighting with itself, and making us as a whole look like a joke to the rest of the EU.
Just to give an example that kind of goes against what you were saying: cars were invented and at first there were not that many regulations.

Now we have:

- speed limits

- car making regulations

- fuel regulations

- ...

And 99% of those rules are good for society as a whole.

Regulation isn't bad in and of itself, abuse of regulation is. Focus on the real target ;)

All the big names in NoSQL have a server you need to install and maintain. In the SQL world as well, actually.
It is an unreasonable maintenance estimate for someone who isn't engaged in a lot of physical activity as far as I can tell.

The problem is not the estimate per se, it is that people don't understand what terms like sedentary and active implies, and tend to overestimate how active they are.

E.g. the vast majority of people who work office jobs are sedentary, whether or not they think that their out-of-office activities makes them "active". An hour of activity here and there in the evening does not get anywhere near compensating for 8 hours in a chair.
I could see that if you were hiring inexperienced developers but it seems pretty strange otherwise.

[1] Are you hiring from a pool of developers who used processes/tools that are the same or inferior to what your company is using? In other words, your company is already excelling compared to their previous experiences.

[2] Could you be hiring from a pool of developers who have been previously conditioned or selected to "keep their heads down"? From the outside looking in, the finance world seems pretty rough and tumble. The geek/nerd response to being with a bunch of jocks is be to stay quite. [I'm a geek/nerd in case that can be taken the wrong way.]

[3] Lastly, honest feedback requires either anonymity or trust. Trust is tough. A single case of a guy getting marched out by security when he told his manager "I'm not happy with my salary." trumps all the other times a manager tells someone, "If you're not happy, come see me." Heck, seeing someone marched out by security for any reason destroys pretty much any trust in management. If your new hire worked a place like that before, it's understandable that he might be reticent to trust his new company.
I disagree with all the hope of a naive programmer: It's awesome that closed-source UIs get replicated as open-source and become a commodity.

Paid software is great, I don't mind that, but software that you don't own doesn't become legacy. Infrastructures like Linux, Eclipse, Nginx, Java will be legacy, SublimeText and .Net won't.

That's inspiring. If you don't mind divulging more details, can you tell us how your son's eye was saved? Do you mean they transplanted an entire eye, or was there a critical part of the eye donated by someone else?

Also interested if your son has heterochromia as a result. I'd imagine that's the case if there was substantial change to the original iris?
That is true but also a small nightmare for anyone in Node.js ecosystem who wants to contribute.

I'm 36 and I don't remember a time when NHS wasn't about to collapse, or be destroyed by the Tories.

Meanwhile, the NHS has been around for about 70 years, and nearly two thirds of that time was under the management of the Tories.

I'm pretty sure, 50 years from now, when I'm 86, people will still be telling me that the NHS is about to be destroyed by the evil sinister Tories.
I think there's a market for the traditional gamer. I think mobile games geared towards them get drowned out in the sea of ... optimized filth.
> Why not just keep your board or whatever up to date and talk about other things? Like surprises, blockers, questions, or concerns.

I could be wrong, but I think that might have been the original intent.

Enumerating everything work related you did yesterday is a waste of time. "I worked on X, Y, and Z. Y and Z are closed. I still need to finish up X," tells nothing that the board doesn't tell. If Y and Z are closed, Y and Z's status reflect that on the board.

"X is still unfinished. An external dependency from ${team} is failing, so I'm coordinating with ${point-of-contact} to resolve the issue." That is a worthwhile update that takes the same amount of time yet contains infinitely more information.

Maybe we need a new format. Everyone who speaks could start with, "Everything I did was routine except..." We know that you went to a meeting with another upstream team, because you have that same meeting at the same time every Tuesday. Therefore, we don't need you to say, "Yesterday I went to a meeting with ${team}." Give us the meeting details that's relevant to our team. You then drop the preamble after a few days or so.

If you see your Congress people on the list you should help replace them with moderates in their primaries and call them more during the year.

Everyone needs to get to know their Congress. Even if they aren't on the list, find out who they are and how to contact them. You only have 3 of them! 2 statewide senators and your house rep. Just 3!
Phoronix used to run some. Typically below 10% for disk heavy loads when KVM and virtio is used, bit more if not. I have no data on network heavy loads.

Generally containers vs VMs is a wash... except when considering security.

There used to be some issues with power saving in Xen that increased power use when idle, but have been fixed around 4.4 or so.
> invest much less time because all the nasty corner cases are already taken care of

I'm certain (because I learned with Slackware before there was Gentoo) that those nasty corner cases are actually where the rewarding part is. The progression of distros for me was, ZipSlack (fit on a 100MB Zip Disk), Red Hat, Mandrake, then back to Slackware once I actually had a real decent internet connection, and I can say for sure that dealing with those naturally occurring corner cases was a lot more fun than dealing with those "it's packaged, but for a different version of RedHat, so it won't work on your Mandrake install"

Eventually I switched to Debian and was able to just stop caring about that stuff for the most part until something was too fresh to find a package.

(I'd run Unstable, and everything was either packaged already or the vast majority of the dependencies were already packaged.)

> None of that lock-in exists in China: Apple may be a de facto monopolist for most of the world, but in China the company is simply another smartphone vendor, and being simply another smartphone vendor is a hazardous place to be.

Don't get that part. I live in Europe and sure a lot of people has an iPhone but I believe strongly that more people have an Android.

Doesn't Android have like 80% or more of the world market?

Here's the referenced commit for the interested: https://github.com/libressl-portable/openbsd/commit/ddd98f8e...

To be honest I'm kinda surprised that even after the 'goto fail' story people still write code in this questionable style(I know this particular issue is not stemming from the lack of curly braces, but still).
Sounds like a bus-factory way of working, which has its own set of problems.
I'm inclined to agree. If I had to guess (which means bet on the opposite :-)), it's that VR will be very real but very much niche. I'm not sure about the zero value for entertainment though. Gamers and hardcore sports fans both spend (to me) absurd dollars on their hobby and VR may well have a role.

AR seems much more interesting, albeit subject to a lot of challenges around social norms etc.
Non of the data scientists I know actually have a degree in data science. They tend to come from either a physics, math or statistic background and have picked up the data science bits of the side.

Also many jobs that aren't data science jobs per se offer many opportunities to do data science type things. Get a job at a company that works with a type of data you find interesting, and that perhaps doesn't have a dedicated in house data scientist, and every time an interesting data related challenge shows up just go "I have a good idea on how we can approach this" (assuming you actually do). Next thing you know people will coming to you with their data science problems and before you know it you have several years of data science experience on your CV.
I do! But strawberries, bananas, apples, even nuts don't feel like a full meal. I always feel oddly and uncomfortably unsaturated after eating them.

The closest I ever got was avocado. Avocado is delicious and satiating. Takes a bit to prepare, but that's okay.

Haha, I see what you did there. ;-)

I had to withdraw from my program at the (almost literal) last minute due to family issues, so I've been reworking my thesis into a few articles. I'll try to send one of those on in a few days.

Containers are an abstraction that exist using cgroups and namespaces for isolation. They use the hosts' kernel, it's not virtualized. Containers are only limited by the capabilities of namespaces and cgroups, unlike vms.

You might be dismissing microservices too quickly. They do have overhead but so does any level of abstract; the benefit of them though is clear separation of responsibilities between services and residency(Swarms, clusters, etc). Both can be achieved with Vms but VMs weren't built with these goals in mind
The turning point in Africa's energy department is within electrification
I don't know why you think nobody cares. It's pretty obvious it will get better as display tech improves, and there are already plenty of prototypes showing that is the case. We just don't think it's important enough of an issue to wait and stay out of the field until it gets better.
Anecdotes not being data and all that, both you and I had the same experience of that number being too high for us to lose weight. I don't have time to look for actual research on what the right averages should be, but the mor important point is that the averages are relatively unimportant:

What matters is not what the average burn rate for your build is, but what you burn. And you yourself is the source for that calorie intake being too high for you.

The averages matters for generc advice and as a starting point, but they can never be as good as measuring and adjusting.

And I think that is part of the problem with this advice. Too many people seem to influence their intake by it but then get surprised and dejected when they don't get the result they expect, instead of using their result to tweak their intake accordingly.
He's not saying that Apple has a monopoly on smartphones; he's saying it has a monopoly on iOS.

His overall point is that while iOS has a strong lock-in effect for people already on the platform, in China the real platform is WeChat, so the iOS monopoly isn't as useful.
Good luck with that. I've been flagging these kind of PR "think pieces" to not much result.
I've used a simple iptables approach to redirect traffic to new Docker container:

iptables --wait --table nat --append PREROUTING --protocol tcp --dport 80 ! --in-interface docker0 --jump DNAT --to $new_target

Then removing tables for old one:

iptables --wait --table nat --delete PREROUTING --protocol tcp --dport 80 ! --in-interface docker0 --jump DNAT --to $old_target

(repeat the same for ip6tables).

The same had to be repeated on system start but otherwise it worked flawlessly and had zero-downtime.
Usually true. That said, some instructions and hardware are emulated or virtualised. (E.g. APIC, clocks, privileged instructions)

The main overhead is in IO though. Closer to 10% with KVM virtio than 95%.
Haha there should be a rule about double-checking transfers that could break the bank.
I forgot about the "Never ask again" functionality, that is definitely good for user agency but it would be much better if Google required apps on the Play store to function with real data or fake data. This includes having an alternate auth method if the user doesn't grant access to their account, especially in light of the following paragraph.

However, you don't really address my concern that Contacts is grouped up with Accounts when it shouldn't be. I cannot deny an app access to my contacts while allowing it to use my account to sign in. Android app permissions need to become much more granular and fully backwards compatible.

Ironically, I'm sitting here not upgrading my phone to Nougat because I really dislike the material design aesthetic of the UI. It's ugly, blinding white and turns every icon into boring circles. It also apparently breaks a lot of stuff that I use everyday.
Managed to find a company where the product fitted my technical knowledge, took a bit of a pay cut as well but well worth it.

It's been a few months and I do not miss coding full time one bit, hell even no longer being involved deeply in tech is a breath of fresh air.

I've had previous management experience (CTO in small start up, Lead Dev ...) so I managed to leverage that during my interview process, then it was mostly showing I was really interested in growing a product and see it succeed.
As in a high-bus-number way? Not necessarily. We're talking about a few days here, not someone going off in a silo for months on end. If your standards for documentation, testing, etc. are reasonable then the results of their work should be maintainable by any team member after they're done.

Not as 100% of the process, but you can print a blob that is 90% of the shape of your lens and grind the rest of the material away as you would have to with normal lenses. I've seen people do it. It's labor intensive, but less so than starting with a regular lens blank.
Yes, I meant open source as in Open-Source, not "gratis".
I've certainly stuck with my 6 plus, I would like another gig of ram but otherwise it does me fine. I cannot justify dumping £7-900 on a phone, so I am happy to wait it out for now.
Your understanding is correct AFAIK. However, the entire point of Bitcoin (and cryptocurrencies in general) is that it's a system that does not have to rely on trust. A "less than trustworthy" implementation is not a tenable implementation. In order for L2 solutions to be truly, universally usable we need a fix for transaction malleability.

Don't trust. Verify.
Both points are valid. Human sexuality is broad and deep. Using it as a weapon against people is wrong and leads to terrible things. Still, the proposed strategy would definitely have a sock factor, even for the most sexually liberated of individuals. I think it would be a shitty thing to do, but it would get attention.
The real problem for Apple in China is that their brand simply isn't as strong as it is in the US. It has nothing to do with WeChat.
Not only that, you also have to pay to see the source code even after registering (which is okay with the OSS licenses). Any paying customer cares to clone it to github and show us? Since it's MIT licensed there should be no problem.
