Smoking is more prevalent in the Pacific Northwest region than it is in, say, Silicon Valley. It is still less common than some other parts of the US. This was very noticeable to me when I moved to Seattle from the Bay Area. In the Bay Area (and many other parts of California), smoking is approaching extinction.

It is a regional culture thing. Most smokers in the Pacific Northwest are strongly biased toward the lower economic strata. By comparison, in many parts of New England (for example) there are quite a few smokers in the upper half of the economic strata.
I've submitted a similar message (which was flagged [what does this mean?]). For what it's worth I'm seeing the same thing.
The dev team is very territorial about their code.
They're virtually in a separate business unit - I don't even have read access to the source code.

To make things worse, the dev lead's boss always defers to his team's knowledge about the issues, so getting certain security issues fixed can require getting upper management involved.
There's no reason those enhancements couldn't be part of 2 other than the maintainers decided to abandon the language for their own maintabity. That's their peragotive, but doesn't provide material benefits to the actual users.
Great point. The amount of infrastructure that needs upgraded in the USA is massive. Subsidizing shitty retail jobs is such a waste.

"but freedom of religion is a basic human right"

Only until it infringes on someone else's rights and freedoms. At that point, it's violence. That's what circumcision is. If you wish to argue that anything should be allowed for any religion, then we have to accept a world that tolerates rape, human sacrifice and mass suicides, just to name a few religious practices that your argument would allow. But if we had that kind of religious freedom, at least we'd be able to take whatever drugs we all wanted to forget about all the stupidity going on around us in the name of religious freedom. Let's face it, religious freedom is a thinly veiled argument for allowing people to do fucked up shit that would otherwise be unacceptable justifying those actions. Since religion can justify any and all horrible human actions, it's basically an argument for allowing one to do whatever one wants without fear of retribution by appealing to unverifiable nonsense.

After reading the article they do make investments but it seems like if you partner with Dell they would offer parts of the ecosystem or consulting experience. So spend would be not only investments but also technologies or expertise.

I don't think you realize that protectionist measures in America is nothing new; in fact, we have quite
a lot of protectionist measures. It's just a media bias here that makes you think otherwise.

The medical model of mental and behavioral problems is a lot better than the moralistic model.

But physical health is also a poor metaphor for mental health, and this article reveals some of the reasons why. Like the doctor comparing the antidepressant use to insulin, even if the doctor was just trying to de-stigmatize the anti-depressants.

But human minds and personalities grow and change in response to the environment they're in and as part of normal aging and development.
Thanks for the example, but I don't use Go and don't plan on learning it just to understand how to switch from using JWT. I need an example for a React frontend consuming a nodejs API (that's just one example). I hope you're getting the idea that these many anti-JWT articles are strong on complaining but weak on providing a solution as well documented with examples as the Auth0 team has provided. Flawed or not, JWT is being used because there are parts (like sample code in many languages) of the JWT offering that are better than what's offered by an article complaining about JWT.
Not at all what I was referring to in my comment. But, yes, you're entirely accurate regarding the airbags. (:
I've said this before, but this just seems crazy to me. Nothing I see suggests that 100% autonomous door-to-door driving as a commercially offered service is just around the corner. Even if it reliably worked technically you're still years away from being able to offer it to the public. Not even Uber could flaunt the law that flagrantly.

And the thing is that we're not there. Even if you say it's a decade out (which seems pie in the sky optimistic to me), can Uber really afford to burn through cash for another 10 years?

[ADDED: I didn't make my point well. I do think legal/regulatory will take some time independent of technical readiness, but IMO it's technical readiness especially in all the corner cases that's the long pole.]
> You can just point a gun at the driver.

Yeah but now you're looking at 20-30 years for armed robbery instead of being just the good ol' boys never meanin' no harm, just makin' their way the only way they know, that's just a little bit more than the law will allow.
I SUPPORT TO PRESERVE NET NEUTRALITY AND WANT ISP'S TITLE II TO ALSO REMAIN.
@Proxy I am not sure what the issue is that you are facing. kubectl proxy should create a tcp-proxy from your loopback device to the pod. So there should be no http_proxy involved. If you think a kubernetes component does not respect the no_proxy setting you should create an issue.

@storage If you want to move your disks with your containers you need an additional storage system(SAN, cloud provider or distributed storage in kubernetes). Then you create persistence volumes in kubernetes that references a disk from the storage provider. This allows you to assign this disk to a pod with a persistence volume claim. The disk that is linked to the container through persistent volume and persistent volume claim will be moved on the same node the container is scheduled. If you want to run stateful workloads on kubernetes I would advice you to use a storage system. You can use local disks but you loose some of the flexibility that you gain from kubernetes by tying your containers to certain nodes with the data. There is also work being done on improving the handling of local storage to treat it more like a resource and introduce separation by using local volume per kubernetes local disk volumes.
> Gotta support "well behaved" brands and cut the small man out of the picture.

Not sure about the second half; doesn't a stable of "well behaved" brands make your platform a more palatable 'name' to advertisers generally? Any ads advertisers would buy because of this would run on the "small man"'s channels as well.

[Maybe a bit of a stretch—] this is more like 1940s America importing German nuclear physicists: you're taking eminent people from outside your society, and inviting them to consider themselves part of it, in the hope that their efforts will help save all the people who already were a part of it, even if it's just as a byproduct of those eminent people working to save themselves.

Some help me to understand how an owner of a company is not entitled to be aggressive about the future of the company. It's mostly in Silicon Valley where nobody cares about shareowner's rights (and yet everyone is so concerned about the little get getting the short end of the stick).

Without dividends, you could value it by its voting right. Stocks with neither dividends nor voting rights I don't understand at all, its only value is in speculation. Those cases just seem like gambling more than anything to me.
There's also ad effectiveness to toss more variables into the mix. There's also the huge difference in the amount of possible content and time slots for a youtube vs a TV ad. There's a very limited amount of commercial time available in primetime popular shows vs the huge number of videos uploaded each day to youtube.
I think he's saying that he wants $X per month to be delivered directly to the content creator's bank account regardless of how many of that content creator's videos he watches. That's what Patreon does.

Twitch has a clearer subscriber model, I think. When you "subscribe", you're actually giving your actual real money to the channel. I'm not sure why YouTube doesn't have that. (Different horses for different courses, I guess. YouTube is more about the "1 billion people will watch this and some people will see an ad", versus "I know I like you, here's some money." Both can be profitable for everyone involved, but the models are very different. Scale vs. curation, or something.)
No, he's just saying they probably announced this at a point where their network is (presently) too weak to achieve what they want, so they may be shooting themselves in the foot a little bit.

They're still doing the right thing, no doubt.
Can we add a rule that people don't post stupid bullshit that isn't true?
The irony in this piece (which Gassée is classy enough to only point to obliquely) is that what pros are clamoring for is for an Apple that's less like Steve Jobs' Apple and more like Jean-Louis Gassée's.

The trashcan Mac Pro came out after Jobs died, but in spirit it's a classically Jobsian product: fascinated with aesthetics and style, disinterested in performance and expandability. It's striking to look at, but required a whole bunch of increasingly painful compromises on the inside in order to make that visual statement possible.

Which makes it a lot like the original Mac, which was also a Jobsian product. Its revolutionary industrial design makes the 1984 Mac a wonderful object to contemplate even today; it's like the Platonic ideal of the term "personal computer." But the original Mac was also hobbled in important ways to fit Jobs' vision; it came with just 128K of RAM (low even by the standards of the time), and no mechanism was provided for adding expansion cards or other upgrades inside the enclosure. (It took two years for Apple to come out with a version that included a SCSI port!)

What the pros want, by contrast, is a Mac that puts functionality over aesthetics; it's OK by them if it's a big ugly box, if that big ugly box comes with cutting edge parts and can be stuffed full of RAM and drives and expansion cards. Which sounds a lot like Gassée's baby when he was in charge of product design at Apple, the Mac II: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_II

The Mac II discarded the beautiful lunchbox form-factor of the original Mac completely, replacing it with... a big ugly box. But it was a big ugly box that was twice as fast as the lunchbox Mac, supported true-color graphics and had plenty of room for expansion, so the pros of the time loved it. The Mac II was the start of the long line of high-performance Macs that would make the Mac the go-to computer for people in creative industries.

So when pro users complain about there not being a Mac for them anymore, this is what they're talking about. They want a modern Mac II. They want a Mac that's less Steve Jobs and more Jean-Louis Gassée.

Yeah, but define "empty calorie". Like, I eat pretty low-carb (mostly because I feel better, not out of any ideological thing). Heavy on lean meats and green vegetables, while I avoid pastas, root vegetables, breads, etc.--I think a potato is the closest thing to an empty calorie you'll find this side of a sugar cube, but reasonable people can and do disagree.

I'm actually surprised that so many teams have this view. We are a very small dev team working on scientific apps and I feel that the time it took us all to get comfortable with Elm was easily recouped by the constant development speed we had even as the app got bigger. In Javascript, projects just become harder and harder to refactor and so they accumulate cruft and development speed drops as the project ages. In Elm, with the help of a really decent type system and a helpful compile, we were able to keep going and just add features at a constant pace. I think it's worth taking a close look at Elm for this reason alone (or Purescript for that matter but there it is possible to get lost in rabbit holes of type complexity :) ).
Me viewing it along with the advertisements
The Elm architecture is explicitly not FRP. With FRP, you could include a component that changes pretty easily; for example, with GHCJS and reflex, there is a function called dyn that takes a Dynamic widget (ie a signal of widgets) and turns it into a normal widget:

dyn :: MonadWidget t m => Dynamic t (m a) -> m (Event t a)

The types take a bit of getting used to (reflex-frp is not nearly as beginner friendly as Elm), but once you are used to them it's incredibly expressive. Being able to just wrap a changing widget into a normal widget without needing to change the rest of your code is a big part of why I ultimately like reflex's model far more than the Elm Architecture.

Executive and field workforce people love the ipad. When I stood up our mobile team, a group of field auditors literally sent us cookies and brownies when we trashed their corporate crapbooks with iPads and VDI -- despite significant UI issues.

As SSO has become better with iOS, people have gotten even happier. The instant ok and lower friction (yet secure) connectivity experience is huge.

The biggest issue is legacy windows apps. But people come up with solutions for that as well. In one case, a guy wrote an access front end for a Windows workflow with giant buttons that were easy to click. Ugly as sin? Yes. But it worked.

You'd think that, but the US has about 724 deaths per 100,000. In a county with fewer than 10,000 people that leaves only about 72 deaths per year. Loving County in Texas has 112 residents. "35 counties have a population under 1,000; 307 counties have a population under 5,000; 709 counties have a population under 10,000" [0].

I haven't read the paper, so I don't know their exact methodology but if they just took a snapshot in 1980 and then in 2014 a county of 10,000 would only be looking at about 145 deaths total. That's small enough that it's pretty possible for outliers to have a big impact. In a county of 1,000 there are only 7 deaths a year, so if you only look at two years that's a total of 14 deaths. It doesn't take a lot to jostle the numbers when you don't have many observations.

In any case, this isn't the main contributor here, as pointed out elsewhere. But it is a good thing to be aware of whenever county level statistics are provided.

http://www.fsavard.com/flow/2012/12/diff-revision/

Basically you take notes like you normally would and the "diffs" of your notes become the elements you will review using spaced-repetition style intervals.

Drawbacks:

- It's not exactly user friendly in its current implementation.

- There isn't any way to give yourself a grade based on how well you remembered a piece of information.

- You must take care to write notes in small blurbs before running the "diff" command, otherwise I end up with large chunks of text to revise and I won't review properly.

- The lack of question-answer mechanism pretty much bypasses the whole "active recall" principle, or whatever that was called.

(Edit: spacing.)
Agreed that the HBR article attacks a strawman - or, at least, a style of "brainstorming" I have never participated in. To me, "brainstorming" is a small number of people (often just two!) sitting together and thinking through a problem. Personally, this has helped me much more than if I had just continued spinning on the problem myself.
>What seems to be happening is that the price of the Model 3 is creeping up.

Of course it is, and it will surprise no one but the eternal bulls.

Tesla has nailed the tech, but auto manufacturing is big and they're new at it (despite how many robots they've bought). You can see the prices at which the other manufacturers are having to subsidize their small EVs and still lose money. Tesla threw out the $35,000 years ago and have stuck with it.

So, it's really no surprise that the price will creep up; the real question is: how big is the market for a $50k EV? Is it as large as people are assuming? Can they make money on 250k cars annually?
Great point. The Mac Pro was pretty obviously this decade's G4 Cube.

Ironically they didn't learn their lesson and thermal failure was still the Achilles heel.

In their defense, Apple hits home runs with those kind of products. I worked in a computer store when the original iMac came out... the serious computer people thought it was a joke, but it sold like hot cakes.
Living in the suburbs and having a similar 1 hour 20 min train ride to work, I ended up setting up a small workout space with a treadmill, weights and a rowing machine.

Don't give Gassée too much credit. It was under his leadership that Apple decided to overprice the Mac and chase after revenue and they let MS and Windows take over -- almost killing Apple.
Thanks for recognizing no one (as far as I know) has made it easy to do the right thing. Yet. Since it sounds like doing the right thing might not actually be that difficult, why haven't market forces taken over? Since many are willing to pay for Auth0 services, why isn't there a similar product that isn't built on JWT and that gets the approval of the crypto community? I would pay for it. I bet others would. I want to focus on building my web app and API and the user experience. I don't want to have to worry that I've made a mistake with authentication, which is outside my area of expertise. I would bet that describes a huge number of programmers creating public facing apps.

In general, implementing non-cryptographically-secure protocols is easier than implementing cryptographically secure tools; there are many ways to set up something insecurely.

I recently set up libsodium for a client running Node.js on the server, and could work on this for you as well, if you want to send me an email, I can send you my rates.
And it is not like even AES-CBC + HMAC is particularly hard to write. (you should remember to encrypt-then-MAC or even better use AEAD these days)
I've found, in recently returning to writing software as the main role, that I spend more time thinking about what to write and maybe doodling out some diagram-like pictures then actually typing characters.

Now that may be different if you are starting a greenfield project or banging out a prototype.

There are a lot of repetitive things we do, which can drain your brain, and like any other job you are also likely doing the work for a company/someone else which means they define what it is you are building/fixing. So make sure you are motivated to be a professional about programming. That means being able to grind through the "this is just like that other thing, but slightly different enough that I can't re-use that other thing", etc.
> iPads could have done so well in the pro space if they'd supported proper integration with Macs and could be used as extension devices rather than exclusively as replacement devices

And indeed, the places I see iPads used most heavily are exactly those. You see it heavily in the audio industry: Logic Remote is really really good and all the other similar tools (Lemur, TouchOSC, etc.) have huge uptake. I'm in the process of building a video/CG overlay system for TV/streaming[1] and the best way to use the backend management system I've found while I'm trying to concentrate on something else is my old iPad 2.
