Ladies and gentlemen, an example of someone who doesn't understand the relevance of established social norms!

You really don't understand the difference between ping-pong and sex?

Either you really like ping-pong, or you really don't like sex.. ;-)

Listen, you may have somewhat of an academic point here, but you're ignoring the fact that way more people - men and women - would be uncomfortable with open discussion of co-workers' sexual activities, much less knowing or condoning that it happens in the workplace, than having a ping pong table in the break room.

Is this a good or a bad thing? it actually doesn't matter, because it is what it is. It is a social norm.

Can it be changed? Sure, maybe.. But you will only present yourself poorly if you think that telling people their concerns don't matter, or are "bullshit" is the way to change this.
Would be good if that were spelled out though. From the outside, you click a link and see a pre-filled PDF, as both the end user and the person that sent the form. There's no obvious magic that it's auto-detecting cc like data and storing it differently than the other fields in the pdf.
Used to be better.
As a UX designer I have seen a lot of this stuff over the years and I always find it funny. DesignerNews.com, which is an imitation of this site, is chock full of articles like this.

The big thing to understand is a lot of people in The Blogosphere(TM) who post articles about UX don't really give a rip about anything other than the pageviews whether it's for ad revenue, establishing themselves as a thought leader, or trying to market their company. Even worse, there are some people who don't even ACTUALLY know much about UX, they just want to post an article about it to spread around LinkedIn and seem relevant by harping about the importance of UX, etc.

Having said all that, if you sift through all the garbage there are some great resources. Some of the big players in the space tend to do it well. InVision's blog, for example. UXPin are pretty good. There are lots of little ones like UXPowerTools' content marketing emails that are starting to do a good job as well.

At this point as someone who is always trying to improve as a UX designer, I have become accustomed to vetting the 100:1 ratio of garbage articles to bad ones.
So basically you'll be trying to think above a constant, low-level din of unintelligible murmuring. Not unlike having a brown noise generator in your office. That would drive me insane.
ALMOST awesome.

I'd like this but:

1) Keep it thin, however

2) cram all that extra space full of battery, damn the weight, and

3) make the case solid metal. Steel if you must. I want it to feel like a contiguous block of metal with no give (doesn't necessarily mean you have to make it impossible to open, but if that's what it takes, go for it), plus

4) some fast wired interface. Gigabit ethernet or (better) USB3.

Oh, and a screen that isn't awful (approaching MacBook territory, if not matching it) would be nice.

And yeah, I'm aware that exact thing probably can't be delivered for $100. $200-300, though (I know, the nice screen bumps the price up)?

I'd love an absolute brick of a thin, battery-filled laptop driven by something just a bit heftier (mostly on I/O) than the Rpi3. Tech old/open enough that there are no wrinkles to iron out, solid enough case to defend yourself with it then flip it open and deploy to production, small enough to pack well, old-school IBM tank-like longevity. Perfect for a lightweight tiling WM and some terminals, and the occasional light open-source or emulated game.
Yeah, I wish. I've done >50 FOIA requests for email communications' metadata across the US and one of the more common rejection reasons is specifically that email addresses are NOT public records. Sure, the domain name is, but that's about it.
While I understand your point, there is a difference between something installed through cargo for use in building software (in the manner rust does, where it's generally statically compiled), and something installed through the package manager for use in running the system.

If I'm installed zlib for general system use, I want a package manager. If I'm installing a Rust compression library to be compiled into the program I'm working on, I want that to be managed by my build chain (especially since the version I'm using in my build may not necessarily match what I have installed on my system to run).

As another example, if someone makes a cook general purpose library using Rust, eventually it should be packaged up and shipped in the normal distro package format by the distro if it's useful. I wouldn't expect cargo to be the normal way to distribute software. It's the Rust equivalent of the old tar -zxvf package-1.2.3.tar.gz && cd package-1.2.3 && ./configure && make && make install. You can do it, but if you have a distro package, use that first.
Yeah, and all of those issues except for HDMI-out have been fixed by the community already.

No, not at all. If he doesn't like it, then he doesn't like it, I can't disagree with that at all.

My point is that the page builders consciously thought of this part, and came up with a reasonable and accommodating design, which I (a narrow-width user) only noticed because of the comment.
Sounds like the age old MBA debate of what makes a leaders versus a manager.
None of the above is easy, as far I know AVX is one of the most thermally-constrained parts of the CPU. Xeon Phi is the best Intel managed to come with.
Something else great about multi-stage builds is that you can actually put all your unit tests in as part of the build flow. It should make CI more portable.
But you could do the same thing at the same price point with a second-hand laptop, and end up with something significantly more powerful and capable.
There is one thing you are forgetting, and that is working with data at scale. That is not to say it is not solvable, but it requires more thought than just shitting it out in an afternoon.

Gmail as the receiving MTA will want to accept or reject a given email recipient. To do this they need to look up the information. They likely have a fancy distributed way of doing this now. If each user now exploded out to N aliases, you are likely adding a new network hop and loads more memory storage before the MTA can accept/reject. When you are processing many billions of email (lookups), this is a significant change.

Again, it is solvable if they wanted to do it. But it is nontrivial. Add onto this the need for the product team prioritize the work, other work to be de-prioritized, planning, testing, etc.
I don't have any books for you, but I can give you my opinion on this idea (based on personal and observed experiences):

> why Stanford, MIT, etc. decided to release MOOCs

1. It's an interesting problem space for both learning and technology.

2. They aren't really giving much up. The value of their brick-and-mortar programs are as much or more about what happens away from the classroom as what happens in them. Many people do not understand this critical aspect of elite schools.

3. This article (http://news.mit.edu/2012/mit-harvard-edx-announcement-050212) is a blurb about edx when it started. The comments are mostly PR.

4. Courses like these are good for advertising and developing the recruiting funnel if used correctly.

On a personal level, I hope that the vast majority of the education system in the US gets forceably reset through some sort of crisis (student loans?) so that we can start from scratch. The current system is largely run by the administrators for the benefit of the administrators all the way from K-12 to grad school. We can definitely do better, and online education may be a compelling part of a new path.
That's a good point that I've never thought about. I don't work on Maps but I can forward this to the team.

Gotta keep up with inflation.

5M generating 3-5% on super safe assets is 150-250k/yr that's generated. After taxes (~40%), that is 90-150k which is 7.5-12.5k/month to spend.

A typical 2-3k sqft newish home in an upper-income neighborhood (median income around 80-90k) runs 400-600k+, which will yield a $2-3k/mo mortgage and $500-1000/mo in property taxes + 500-1000 in general utilities. So just to own a home in an upper-income neighborhood is 3-5k/month. Even if the house is paid off, one is looking at 1-2k/month in property taxes & utilities.

Decent health insurance can easily run around closer 1-2k/month for a family. Yes there are plans for $100/mo as well, but those pretty much as good as not having insurance.

Also a portion of the proceeds needs to be reinvested back to keep up with inflation. It feels that most things have doubled in cost since I was in highschool back in the late 90s/early 00s.

Sure, it's possible to live on 25k/yr (family of 4-5?) like Mr Money Mustache. It really depends on the lifestyle one would like the maintain.

The point of being financially independent is to be able to do as one pleases, but if the things that one wants to pursue cost a decent chunk of money, then the retirement income needs to accommodate said hobbies.

Travel, transportation (cars, boats), housing can be cheap, but virtually unlimited amounts of money can be spent on those categories alone and those categories tend to be the ones that people generally enjoy splurging on.
The elevator buttons were pretty cool.
Well, it's not not patent incumbered, but there is no need to use it for anything besides playback of existing legacy media that doesn't have a lossless original. Otherwise just use Opus for playback purposes.
That is a reasonable analysis. I kinda agree that a computer cannot be treated the same way as a home appliance (well not right now anyways, this made me wonder how support for some of the smart appliances will pan out in the future). There are exponentially more things that can go wrong, whereas with, e.g. a Washer, there are a reasonably finite number of problems which can be fixed by a mechanic.

That being said though, radio silence is NOT the way you treat your customers. If they don't offer support, then simply state that in an email, or better yet, state that explicitly on the website. But if you have a customer support email and don't honor it, it feels pretty scummy IMO.
Having an account tied to the execution of the code does nothing to help with security. I can still register with a bogus email account and then run code anonymously. This doesn't inconvenience attackers, only legit users.
> Well, people who make $200k tend to live in places when you spend $40-80k on rent or mortgage, $10-$20k on food and utilities, god knows how much on medical insurance, and all after 30%-40% taxes, leaving you with about zilch to save. Or so i heard from this side of the ocean.

That's only true of people who either have kids with one working parent, or are extremely irresponsible with their money.

* $80k is almost $7k / month in rent, or payment on a mortgage well over $1m.

* Utilities are incredibly cheap in a temperate climate like SF, unless again you have an unreasonably large house to heat/cool. The rest of the "$10k-$20k" for food could buy a person a meal out everyday on the low end, and all meals out on the high end. This is especially crazy when you consider that most $200k jobs also provide catered lunch.

* Medical insurance is always included with $200k jobs. Not true with contractors, but they are probably making a lot more than $200k, if they were able to pull that salary at a regular full-time job.

If you're making $200k and not saving anything, you really need to reevaluate your priorities. Just because your parents lived in a $5m house in Palo Alto and paid your way through Stanford doesn't mean you deserve to continue that lifestyle immediately after graduation.

never heard of this before. Really cool.
I would love to see a bigger list of use cases.
Reddit is still bearable if you ignore the frontpage/popular subs. Nothing new but it got way worse the last couple of years.

- Look at this cute dog (drinking a bottle of Coca-Cola)

- I broke my leg this morning (while holding this can of Pepsi)

- Thread that shouldn't be on the frontpage (and the top comment is: "I bet he bought it at Walmart")

- Cool drone video (literally filming an ad)

- Photo of CharmingGuyMcAbs and/or CharmingGirlMcBoobs (Positive Reinforcement)

> I'm rooting for the disruptive upcomer

Doesn't look anything like Digg/MySpace days unless they somehow find a way to kill the "smaller" communities. Even the outbound click thing (or the new frontpage) didn't made any real impact from what I can tell.

But who knows, maybe you're right and someone comes up with a killer feature. Or an UI that doesn't suck so bad that you need a mandatory browser extension (that fries your CPU).
It's funny how Gibson's screenplay was marked "not innovative" but now The Master himself, Sir Ridley Scott, is basically churning out the same movie over and over again (Prometheus and Covenant). In the end, Hollywood franchises will go on no matter what.
Not forever; the old parts of 'silicon valley' have been being turned under and rebuilt taller. Look north and east of the intersection of 237 & Mathilda Ave.

The south SF bay(and most of the bay, really) is similar to Chicago in the run up to the Civil War; it's expanded out as much as possible, the only direction left is up. The gentrifying is pricing families out of the area; you can measure progress with BART, and how it's snaking it's way into the heart of the south bay.

I understand that on-site childcare wouldn't work for everyone, but it could work for some, and be a benefit to them.

Other companies DO provide it.

There's a on-site cafeteria, correct? Do they worry how people will get lunch if they quit/fired? Reservations in SV/SF can easily take 6-12 months. /s

Right, but the existence of homomorphic encryption isn't something should prompt developers to start implementing it as a "best practice" now.

I'm wondering if this is just reporting incompetence, or a symptom of the appalling degree of corporate influence on all modern for-profit reporting organizations. As usual I'll side with the conspiratorial.

Similar to oligarchical government: an issue only has a chance if it has a corporation behind it, and a looming infringement of freedom is only stopped if a set of corporations oppose it.
It might appreciate in value, but you would still need someone willing to pay $5B+ for it.
That would apply if Reddit were any kind of unmoderated. Most of the communities showing up on the front page have a litany of exacting requirements for content, and sometimes, stuff winds up deleted anyways.

I'm not an expert but once you are breached I feel it's very difficult to be sure what was or was not accessed. Maybe if the system breached was air-gapped or completely third-party (e.g. a mail list provider) you can safely say "no personal information" was accessed but as a user, my trust in DocuSign is now lower no matter what they say.
This is sad. The iPad mini was the one iPad that I really liked. It's incredibly light weight and about the right size to have as a useful hole in space that connects to the Internet.
Well, when I say "your neighbor can not hear you", I mean that literally. Not mumbling, just talking at a sub-audible volume.

And, IMO, even mumbling would be better than the current open office constant flow of loud conversations (one of which I'm trying to drown out with headphones this very moment).
So what good does increasing US medical school graduation rates do? OK, it would displace some IMGs/FMGs from residency positions, but it doesn't ultimately create more doctors. You can't be licensed to practice independently in the US unless you enter a residency, take the USMLE Step 3 after intern year, and typically you also take a specialty board exam at the end of residency.

See this to understand why the bottleneck is residency positions, not how many US medical students there are: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/20/opinion/sunday/bottleneck...

How is something like "Use CSP without allowing unsafe-* backdoors" in any way educational? If I'm a newbie web developer, even coming over from embedded systems, how do I know what CSP is? What do I use CSP for? How do I start with CSP? What do I do to configure CSP? What does CSP even stand for? I don't know, it wasn't even defined!

Basically, this is a useless listicle. If you know anything about web security you get nothing from it and if you don't know anything about web security you still get nothing from it.
And then one day there will be a generation of programmers who have only known coding via a voice-driven developer assistant. Imagine trying to interview such a person.

The parent comment:

> Also, on what basis do you say that longer hours with fewer tradeoffs don't improve patient outcomes? You frame it as though it's obvious but is there any evidence to back that up? My wife and most other doctors I know all claim they'd rather have longer hours with fewer handoffs.

I responded with evidence.

And yeah, I've seen the FIRST study. The control group, in this case, is working a 16 hour shift. Even if they only need one hour on either side of that shift to go from asleep to work and then back to asleep (which is not what I have seen), that control group is maxing out at 6 hours of sleep, well below the level where all but a tiny percentage of the population starts to see serious performance declines. https://hbr.org/2015/08/the-research-is-clear-long-hours-bac.... A more useful study would look at residents who are actually well-rested - who have gotten the consistently required eight plus hours of sleep over a significant enough period of time to have eradicated their existing sleep debt - and then compare their performance going forward while they continue to get enough sleep to residents working 16 or 28 hour shifts.

Lurking encourages user participation in the long run. Sure, a few people will be early adopters and begin contributing with enthusiasm, but a larger chunk of users prefer to consume content passively before making the decision that contributing is worth it for them.

Turning away your potential audience with an immediate demand to register is a great way to make sure your content isn't read.

If I had a dollar for every time I saw something either overtly racist or inappropriate, or just plain braindead on the new front page that wouldn’t have shown up before I’d have several. It went from the “front page of (what’s popular on) the internet” to “front page of Reddit”. The only problem is below the surface Reddit has a lot of racist and inappropriate content.

Honestly, how can you say that? There is absolutely nothing but love put into this building. Jobs spent his last years on earth dedicated to it, to every single last detail, because he wanted a home for apple, a real home. It's easy to be cynical, but I think it's hard and therefore admirable to rise above that tendency when something truly beautiful and genuine comes along. Now I don't blame you for feeling that way, it's what we're surrounded by, but let's not ignore the one counter example when it's right in front of us!
