That's my goal! It is desirable, and I think it is feasible.

I said in another comment that I think the best thing we can do is get quantum devices in the hands of people and let them play. Unfortunately, for a long time, quantum computers and their programming have been so utterly out-of-reach and opaque that that has been difficult. Now I think we are taking good steps to opening the possibility of experimentation up.
How Technology Is Changing Home Improvement Industry?
If Canonical didn't spend so much time engaging in Not-Invented-Here fantasy 5D chess, and instead focused on advancing the emerging standards, then they would have had more momentum. By working against the community (e.g. Mir [especially the Wayland FUD]), they cost themselves time and enthusiasm.

I think this had a lot to do with the cancelling of Unity 8 as well.

Thinking back, I'm impressed with how far they got. If they had collaborated where it didn't help to compete, then I think they would've had a better chance of entering the market. I hope that this experience doesn't steel them against working on ambitious things entirely in the future.
Your scenario introduce 'translation' as an additional task. I wouldn't be surprised if that ends up being the bottleneck, rather than anything specific to either the input or output language processing.
It's why the horror that is MATLAB exists. I'm looking forward to replacing MATLAB with the much more ergonomic Julia soon though.
The only problem I have with Algo is that it isn't compatible with Little Snitch :(
I'll second that the issue is only semantics. Scheduling is not the same thing as storage, but it _has the same effect on the grid_.

Yeah, the state of the camera currently makes this a non-starter for me. (I'm no social media diva, but I do like photography and the ability to get good images out of "the camera at hand", i.e. my phone.)

Nonetheless, I'd like to know more about your point 2). I remain nervous about anything where the management of the platform is essentially coming out of China.
Higher TDP/frequency, and less memory channels (I believe Naples is 8 per socket, whereas Threadripper is only 4).
I'm not the one who offered advice, but I've had to review plenty of resumes in the past, and I have a couple of comments.

- I really like the layout and design of your resume. I find it easier to read and follow than 90%+ of the resumes I've seen over the years.

- Your objective is pretty vague and non-specific. Don't feel bad about that. Almost every 'Objective' section I've seen on resumes is the same. Consider replacing it with a 'Summary' section instead. In this section, tell me who you are and why I should hire you. Don't be afraid to sell yourself a little!

- Your experience points are a bit vague. 'Development of web content utilizing HTML 5, CSS 3 and Javascript' doesn't tell me much. What kind of content did you develop? How many people used it? Also, writing 'Assisting in the development of new technologies as they arise' doesn't really add to your resume, because using new technology sort of comes with the territory when you're working as a developer.

Don't take any of this as harsh criticism, because it isn't intended that way! You've got valuable experience, and I love the design of your resume. When I'm reading a resume, each sentence or bullet point is a chance to convince me to interview you. As you read through each point on your resume, ask yourself if, after reading that point, someone would be more inclined to interview you than before. If not, try to add some detail or context that explains the business value of what you did.
Massive Volcanic Eruptions Triggered the (Post-Triassic) Dinosaur Age
The FAQ says that it's not a disposeable-e-mail-generator, but the description of what it does makes it seem like that's exactly what it is. (Maybe it means that it doesn't generate random e-mail addresses from a shared pool?)

I've been a satisfied user of SpamGourmet (www.spamgourmet.com) for years, and the only (argueable) downside I've seen is how upset customer-service representatives get upset while reading my address. How does your service compare?
We went through Startup School program too [^1]. From what I read in your post, it seems every mentor had its own way of conducting the Office Hours. For example, we didn't have the feedback loop on how the office hours went you mention.

Ian, our mentor, went through every project and asked questions that made us make great progress. In our company's case, we went from Idea to MVP, then to Product and Launch in 10 weeks (thanks Ian!).

Also, Office Hours are great because it gives you the accountability needed to push forward every week.

One thing I noticed is how sharp in timing the Office Hours were. They were 1 hour length mostly all of the times. Same with Startup School lecture videos which consistently were around 50min long.

Is this sharp control over timing something in American culture? As an European I find surprising how you guys make things last the exact amount of time you want even when you don't control the input (like in office hours where 10 startups have to show their progress)

DeepMind's Relational Neural Networks (TensorFlow implementation)
I've heard that a lot. Put it on S&P 500. No hedge fund will be able to beat that.

Consider the fact that S&P 500 is made up of 500 companies, there will be a top 100 and a bottom 400. There are some sectors that grow better than others. e.g For the past couple of years the entire Tech sector has done phenomenally well.

I like picking stocks, learning about companies, their products, competition, reading financial statements, P/E ratios and speculating. Its fun!

It does feel like a gamble at times so I do a 50%/50% split. Half goes to a wide index, and the other 50% is split into smaller chunks that goes to stocks I have picked after a lot of reading and thought.

For the past 3 years I've beat the market but 3 years is a very small sample so I may as well very much lying to myself. In anycase I enjoy it.
Sorry this will come off as a super dumb question. I use ssh. I can login, edit, develop, run, basically anything. What am I missing? I thought VPNs are for 'admin' types that need access to a MS Excel file.
But isn't the mall privately owned? At least the shops inside would be. Do different rules apply to them compared to private homes? Afaik the sovereignty of one's own home is held in very high regard in the US, why doesn't the same apply to a private business?

Train stations, as part of the public infrastructure, are probably held to a different standard. Locking somebody out from those would present quite a constraint to that individual, so that's probably for the better.
It's not too difficult. Where I work, we're building a BI tool that maps domain concepts ("objects") to fields in relational databases (we're using Python and building out SQLAlchemy queries, but we're not doing anything that wouldn't easily translate into Go). The domain concepts are analogous to structs in Go or simple classes in Python. You only need to get the mapping data once (in our case, the user configures these mappings in the UI and then we load them at runtime, but these could come from anywhere) and from then on there is no magic.

If you know ahead of time what your types are, then you can do everything in code gen easily.

The tough bit is query optimization.
This has been tried - the problem is that FLAC works by removing redundancies and correlation in the audio signal. When you subtract an Opus encoding from the original, the resulting difference file is the difference, which is much less correlated noise - often it actually compresses worse than the original FLAC. WavPack gets around this by making its lossy format a subset of the lossless data, but as a downside the lossy compression is far worse - about 3x worse than Opus.

Other attempts include Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD - but both of those ended up larger than just separate FLAC and Opus files.
RFC-violating email regexes cause problems less and less all the time, and much less often than just 5 years ago.
You only say that because you're MIXING indent styles.

Tabs first, ALWAYS, one tab is one level of indent.

go fmt uses the UNIX lineage of defaulting to 8 spaces converting to a tab (worded in reverse).

Your editor should easily display tab stops at a value that is ideal for you; you could set this to 2, 3, 4, or any other value if it makes things more readable to you.

There are subscription services that are designed specifically around this behavior. My sister in law uses one I think called stitch fix. You give them your measurements, interview, and then they assign you a fashion consultant who picks out clothes for you and sends them on a regular basis. You send back whatever you don't like. It must be pretty profitable if more traditional retailers are heading partially in that direction.
Okay but in genetics, these terms are used distinctly for some reason.

Heritable → polygenic attributes that may be partially passed on

Inheritable → (mainly monogenic) attributes that can be passed on

Something like that, I don't get it really but genetics uses the terms differently. Searched for deeper resources, didn't find any easily.
Semi-related, I've got an iPad 1st gen, and wanted to gift it to my nieces in El Salvador for school work.

So, I wiped it, hoping to give them a blank slate to install whatever they need.

I wish I hadn't - I could find absolutely nothing to install on the device from the Apple Store. Everything requires new iOS version (which is fine, of course), but I also can't install old versions of software on the iPad.

Basically, I screwed myself by wiping the device because now the default, pre-installed apps are the only apps that will ever run on this thing again.

> And your generation credits are calculated month-to-month, so if you generate excess in the summer but not in the winter, you don't get credit for the summertime surplus when you need it.

At least in the northern California PG&E service area, the credits are calculated month to month but trued up once a year, so your summer surplus generation does give you credit for your winter use. It's called net-metering [1]

The VPN changes your network route. This can get you around geographic locks (services that only work in certain areas). It can also get you around traffic issues, if your ISP has technical/political routing issues. Like with Comcast/Verizon refusing to add additional peering because they wanted to double-bill netflix traffic.

Some VPN services also advertise additional privacy or anonymity, but trusting a stranger to not sell you out to their local government isn't usually a good idea.

From a business standpoint, you may want web and network services without exposing them to the wider internet. So they're only accessible on IPs in local subnets. VPNs will get you inside the wall.
this is my opinion, too. In an ideal world we would all use tabs so that we could all see the indentation level that suits us best. But it's not an ideal world. So we're forced to use spaces and agree on how many spaces to indent with.

Except for Go programmers.
In practice, Google and Apple had something to offer over Blackberry and Symbian. It was never obvious to me what Ubuntu Phone offered -- Android is already built on Linux and translating existing linux apps built on X (for example) directly to phones was never going to create a usable experience. Ubuntu phoned seemed only to offer a vastly inferior experience in return for more openness, and that is a hard sell.
I am simply pointing out that you do not "solve hunger" by just handing out daily rations of food at a food bank.

You can keep people from going hungry by doing that, but it doesn't address the underlying problem and in fact it likely perpetuates it.

Yes, it is a search problem, but in the sense of a matching problem or finding maxima given a dataset. The parent commenter was illustrating the difference between the problems of having a paucity of data (applicants) and assigning an accurate value ("trust") to determine the data with the greatest value (most qualified or desired applicants).
Oh dear. My main domain and email are in the .space TLD. I hope your practice is not widespread.

Personally, I chose .space simply because it's cool, cheap, and not overcrowded. It also seems to lend itself well to being part of a name.

I know spam is a hard problem, but I wish you wouldn't label me a spammer simply because of the TLD I chose.

As others have noted, the article doesn't seem to answer the question it poses. What's missing is more detail around the process of producing green and black olives.

Watch the end of the embedded video:

https://youtu.be/xKWBJkaoRjM?t=1m7s

Black olives enter the canning facility unripe and green. Bubbling air blackens them.

This part of the process isn't mentioned at all in the article, and it's hard to know whether this was the process being used by Freda Ehmann, or whether/how this oxygen treatment resulted in the botulism cases.

All in all, not the best in technical reporting.
Upgrading Shopify to Rails 5
A movie was made 1986 based on this called "Stand by Me". It was a favorite when I was young. River Phoenix, Corey Feldman and Wil Wheaton are in it. It may seem dated and shallow compared to the story, but it's worth watching.
Actually I believe threadripper and epyc use the same (4094 pin/contact) socket. So the same motherboards should work.
> How naive we were back then, thinking that tech alone would suffice to bring us freedom.

You've completely misunderstood what the phrase actually means. The notion of access to information doesn't imply access to a selected, curated subset of it: in fact it means quite the opposite. Access to a deluge of information unbarred by gatekeepers is precisely at the heart of the concept, in contrast to the highly-curated and high-barrier world of (e.g.) three broadcast networks, and thousand-dollar encyclopedias.

Don't get me wrong: I certainly don't think that it's only the "dumb" that find handling the information deluge to be challenging. From the perspective of the individual's access to information, "Information Wants To Be Free" is still very much alive and well; it just requires a little more maturity than "tell me what to believe". Every single time I've heard someone complain about the fact that they see reliable sources say seemingly contradictory things about an issue, it's because the issue in reality is more complex than their oversimplified model would like it to be. Amazing access to information doesn't even remotely mean the same thing as "every issue is now magically simple enough that you don't have to put any effort into understanding it".

FWIW, "Sharing is Spamming" is utter nonsense. If you put the time in to curate whose sharing you read, you won't end up with garbage in your proverbial in-box.

My favourite thing about Jupyter notebooks is that you can render them locally to avoid the Jupyter hassle if you don't have it installed for some reason (or if you don't want to run it).

Upon reading this, I decided to implement a renderer of Github-hosted files (as their renderer is painfully slow and doesn't work on phones) to further simplify notebook distribution. I haven't looked into Bokeh and other javascripty extensions, but it might be solvable as well. So thanks for the inspiration!

Regarding "I can't drive a Tesla from my house to a Supercharger station. I'd have take a slow charge somewhere - or a tow truck. I'm sure I'm not the only one in that situation."

If you're located in the lower 48 states of the US, you're definitely one of a very, very small number of people in that situation - the map on https://www.tesla.com/supercharger claims they've pretty much got the map covered these days - though Hawaii and Alaska are out of luck. It looks like North Dakota might still be underserved right now, but pretty much everywhere is within a couple of hundred miles of a station.

Fact is, though, that a vanishingly small number of people are living in places that far from charging infrastructure, mechanics, or frankly, the places they need to drive to regularly.
In reply to you first question, no, because it is my computer, it runs with same origin policy in the sandbox. And I've chosen to enable js for that site. So it couldn't do what this extension does, which is cross site data transfer.

If the end user clicks the 'do not show again' checkbox on the message, sure. But it should still be graphically represented whenever you use an insecure cloud plugin, e.g. via an unlocked padlock sub icon if it doesn't use TLS, maybe a cloud sub-icon to represent someone else's computer.

Another one for the UK, Doddle provides pick up locations at train stations and other places designed for commuters.

They even have places to try on clothes, and packaging materials there, so you can return the items without ever taking them home.

Unfortunately they are quite expensive from a retailers perspective, or roughly equivalent to a Prime membership if the user subscribes directly (so they can use it with all online stores).
There will always be unanticipated circumstances that will foil the sensing systems. My go-to example is this situation where road re-paving artifacts and shadows combine to create a false lane marker. This vehicle's video-based system determined that the bright area between the shadow and lane pavement was the left lane marker and sounded a lane departure alert. Had the autonomous lane following feature been activate, it would have reacted and attempted to center the car on the false boundary:

If you think that the information transferred by human speech consists only of the words spoken, you have a rather shallow view of language. You're also processing information taken from pace, pitch, timbre, intonation, volume, timing and direction (among other things). The written word is to speech what choreographic notation is to dance - it's enough to give you the gist, but you wouldn't mistake it for the real thing.
Note that it took behemoths like Apple and Google to enter the cellphone market. The sheer size of those two companies, combined with the carrier lock-in landscape at the time (VZ offered GPS nav for $10 a month!), made for an opportunity.

What’s the corollary today? What need are Google and Apple underserving, and what company is large enough to mount a challenge to their duopoly?

Honestly I think you're being extremely generous about how much signal there is in the noise. I think the decimal point needs to move at least two places to the right, but probably more like four.
I guess I would buy that, and I've had my own (mostly lost) battles with the history API. I just expect better of a company like Medium. It's their thing, ya know? Being readable, clean, serious, non-intrusive. If Medium isn't that, they're just another random blogging platform.
Good to know, it's been some time since I read about left handed deaths and only recall the articles being all the buzz back then.
Well, OP never specified, so neither did I, but I did suspect that they were talking about per second. To say we absorb gigabits of information over 90 years is a different story, and one which I assumed OP wasn't talking about.
It's an on/off situation. Genetic defects happen 1:100 when the mother is 40 and 1:100000 when the mother is 23.

I don't have the exact numbers but it's something in that ballpark.

It's not a weak versus strong physical thing. And it would affect mental capacities at the same rate. Geeks are usually not dumber than average.
Not gonna go there personally in terms of judging what level of human tragedy would or would not be acceptable for future human lives saved.

However, the concern here is not (primarily) that someone died, it's that the reasons they died are not likely to be fully and impartially assessed, and all possible lessons learned from their death, because nearly everyone involved with any power is incentivised for that to not happen.
