It raises some interesting questions. To vizualize a program in a useful way, is it an exercise in what you can take away? Take away everything so all you are left with is text nodes and links, and that is something easy to visualize.

This is all so obvious but it never solidified concretely like this for me until now.

The following domains have a bunch of stuff taken away from them, you're left with a narrow domain of very few concepts, and once narrowed it is intuitive to make a visual tool:

webforms - google forms
relational forms - airtable
computer aided design
music - OneNote
mathematica
video games - unity
website - squarespace
crud app - hyperfiddle.net
world wide web - internet explorer, or html

Functional programming may be a way to narrow down the set of "all programs" to a few primitives that can be modeled visually, but not take away so much that it is not useful for general purpose programs. Maybe visualizing pure expressions as a tree of function calls or as an execution graph. IDEs can already do this for imperative & object oriented programs, but you end up with a hairball, the visualization is not useful enough that we no longer need, for example, to write code in files.

What other ways can we attack a large domain like "enterprise business apps" and take things away until left with a few simple composable primitives?
While I applaud any attempt to gather real and first-person observations...

> I don't see any evidence of any mic uploads.

... I am somewhat concerned at what seems to be a common assumption that Facebook (or any other remote server) is sending the same software to everybody. I find that unlikely when "AB testing" and similar practices are are commonly used. Facebook is very strongly involved with "targeted" services which suggests they are more likely than most to send different versions to different audiences. Obviously that isn't proof, but it's a good reason to extrapolating from a single example.

Version numbers and hashes of the installer or binaries from all parties would help a lot.

> I encourage those curious to try it and see for themselves

That's always good advice.
"He opened a Vim. I knew there was no exit"

LOL :-)
There is a lot of good advice here on perspective and going ahead one step at a time.

The only thing I would like to add to it is that you will feel better in due course even if you dont do anything much. Time will fix burnout by itself, and your pessimism will lift.

Try not being anxious about not wanting to do anything. Knowing that it will fix itself should help - maybe make this time enjoyable even. Let the world go by and have faith that your time will come.
In my country truth is a defense but far from absolute.
Truth taken out of context can be as damaging as lies. For example, saying "Mx.X is involved in an armed robbery case" when he is, in fact, the victim of said robbery.
EXPLORE MOTHERLAND AFRICA – Exploring Motherland Africa
Inspired by this type of book, I used to write BBC BASIC adventure games in the late 1980's at school. It was great fun planning the structure of them on paper and coming up with the graphs first.
In what way is this proposal better or more progressive than direct cash transfers to acquire the same market housing that everyone else does?

If there are problems with cash transfer programs --- for instance, that only certain homes end up eligible due to paperwork requirements, or under-market payments --- it seems much easier to fix those than to turn the government itself into a landlord for millions of people. Tenant/landlord relations are themselves a kind of marketplace, and central planning handles those poorly.
Hi, the main differences from Plaid are:

- This is a live API. AFAIK Plaid does not return live data from the bank as you request, but cached data instead. When you make an API call to Teller, it hits the bank and returns live data to you. It also does this rather quickly.

- Teller can make external payments and inter-account transfers. We didn't launch those publicly today, but they exist and will be coming very soon.

- Teller exposes more than transactions, you can see details of (and cancel) regular payments from your account, e.g. standing orders and Direct Debits.
I remember reading that the average retired person in the UK earns more (higher _income_) than the average worker, so that's before you work out the 'wealth' bit.

And 80% of the country's wealth is with the 60+ crowd (this is getting worse, if anyone has stats that include 2015 / 2016 it'd be appreciated).
As they've got both greater wealth and income than the young, and this is getting worse, I think it'd be foolish to call the problem a distraction.

> How can the opposite be true - i.e. I control github.io but I don't control something-else.github.io ?

This is easily possible, because control over the host pointed to by the A record for "github.io" says nothing about your level of control over the DNS nameservers.

To use another example (mentioned in the pull request that I linked to above), somebody from MIT described a setup where they issue arbitrary subdomains that may contain periods, such that "x.y.scripts.mit.edu" and "y.scripts.mit.edu" may both be valid hostnames controlled by different users. Currently, there's nothing that the owner of "y" could do to get a certificate for "x.y"; your proposal would break that guarantee.
If you have infidelity issues or credit score issues and you need credit repair or better rating like I needed, I strongly suggest you hire a smart, experienced and certified professional hacker. I saw his info on a friend's review post and I contacted him, and wow... I have been happier ever after.
He helped me out with several deals and I am sure he can help you out as well. He is truly a genius at what he does. It was worth the fee.

i dont believe that even owning a bank could you directly control monetary policy or procedures that the gov't legislates. You'd have to own either the majority of all banks, or own the gov't yourself (i.e., dictatorship), and even then, it's a hardsell.
Western democracies should impose a domestic procurement ban on companies which sell to foreign governments without civilian control over their militaries. This would not require new export controls or restrictions on international trade, only voluntary divestment when awarding domestic procurement contracts on the public's behalf. Problem solved.

I'm not gonna install a million plugins to fix Powershell, what incentive do I have? At this point Windows is a rapidly dying platform in Point of Sale, with SLES having fully replaced it in nearly every major US grocer.

Nearly every interaction I have had with Powershell in the past 3 years has left me sad, angry, and frustrated. Building a decent shell isn't a monumental task, and I don't get why the occasional Windows box I touch is always a mess wrt Powershell.
"Finding how to code securely or comprehensive list of insecure patterns is much harder."

The problem is not only secure coding, actually, I'd argue that it's not even the biggest concern. You can produce the most secure code on the whole world, but that won't matter if your device has an unprotected or easily brute forced telnet access by default. Loose default security settings and permissive access is the key concern imho.
The only thing unique to Firefox that I really miss about in other browsers is the ability to zoom text only and leave images untouched. It will break layouts but I prefer my pictures crisp. I wish any other browser implemented it but no such luck.

It could be implemented as simply as having site/tab specific minimum text size option that could be bound to ctrl+mouse wheel.
It's been an issue for me. I wanted to make a battery-powered sensor that would only enable the wifi hardware when the sensor had changed (to maximise battery life) - but the closed-source firmware means that's not possible.

Also, some of the SSL support is in the closed-source firmware, and it's incompatible with Mozilla's 'Modern Compatibility' ciphersuite list.

I used the ESP8266 anyway - it's not ideal, but for my application it was the best thing available. There's room for improvement, though.

My favorite description of one of his battles:

> The result was complete panic, and, to ensure that the Hungarians did not fight to the last man, the Mongols left an obvious gap in their encirclement. This was one of Subutai's classic tricks, to create a tactical situation which appeared to be favourable to the enemy, but which was anything but. The Mongols had already incurred heavier than usual casualties as the Hungarian crossbowmen had done considerable damage to the Mongol cavalry. Subutai did not want a battle where the massed crossbowmen, supported by mounted knights, stood firm and fought to the death against his army. He far preferred to let them flee and be slaughtered individually. The gap in the Mongol lines was an invitation to retreat, which would leave the knights and crossbowmen spread out all over the countryside, easy pickings for the disciplined Mongols. As Subutai had planned, the Hungarians poured through this apparent hole in the Mongol lines, which led to a swampy area, poor footing for horses and hard going for infantry. When the Hungarian knights split up, the Mongol archers picked them off at will. It was later noted that corpses littered the countryside over the space of a two-day journey. Two archbishops and three bishops were killed at the Sajo, plus 40,000 fighting men. At one stroke, the bulk of Hungarian fighting men were totally destroyed, with relatively minimal casualties to the Mongols, reportedly less than 1,000 men.
I respectfully disagree. Of course you need to really understand backpropagation for any advanced stuff, but it is easier to ignore it at the beginning. Take Keras container, copy some MNIST example from somewhere and tweak it. Then, when you have a general feel of how training NNs works, gradually learn about each concept - BP should of course be one of the first. By the time you get into math stuff it will probably make much more sense because you will understand how it applies to your case.

But I guess the approach depends on how you best learn, so there is no wrong answer. Just jump in!

Now that you're asking- I don't really have an answer what exactly remains powered on. I have seen reports of people achieving sub-10uA sleep currents, so my result could be improved by a factor of 2 (LDO I put on board has Iq of ~40uA).

I haven't looked really deep at what power modes are available for each power/clock domain- at the moment I just have the ESP waking up from RTC timer every 15 minutes and it can also be woken up manually with GPIO. It's entirely possible that I have left some peripherals at non-optimal state.
