Why not just use email? This was asked by a ton of people and we have addressed it here: https://help.twistapp.com/hc/articles/115003654589

Email is great and we are fans of it, but not for internal team communication.
Email with a better UX seems like exactly what I want
@nogc just causes the compiler to error out when a GC allocation occurs in the region marked @nogc and its call graph. You are then expected to manage memory yourself. You could rename it @c_or_cpp_style_memory_management_only. You can malloc/free (scope(exit) is useful here), use smart pointers, alloca, static arrays, use Andrei's allocators[1], or whatever else you'd use in C or C++.

The answer to all of your questions is basically the same as they are in C and C++. D does have @safe though which prevents unsafe memory operations and Walter is in the process of ratcheting up the memory safety with DIP1000[2].

2. Relying on them not to peek at their data for competitive advantage.

Well, no, you did not look at them.

How  to Improve Your E-Commerce Business
Probably around 30.
Perhaps so. The point was: scraping/aggregating/etc for car services is not comparable with what sites like Kayak do for the airline industry.

There very well may be one ride hailing app to rule them all, but implementing it will be an entirely different beast.
That's not really relevant to their question. Many templates are implemented via inlining/instantiation in client code by default, and as such they won't be present in the output of the C++ compiler.
ProtonMail would be happy to implement more of the OpenPGP encryption standard. Specifically, it would be great if someone would contribute ECC support to the opensource OpenPGPjs project that ProtonMail currently maintains. There are just not cycles to do it internally, right now. ProtonMail is far from idle. A number of new features and offerings are being worked on. For example, take the bridge application (currently in beta testing) that will allow integration with IMAP based applications like Microsoft Outlook.

If there's something that is a high priority for you personally to see (such as OpenPGP ECC algorithm support), I would ask that you take the time to submit it to the ProtonMail UserVoice page [ https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-feedback ]. That page is monitored and the feedback received through UserVoice is considered and strongly influential. UserVoice has a great end user application and clarification effect that is difficult to experience through interacting with users through e-mail or traditional forum comments.

I don't believe I've seen the Reddit exchange that you are referring to (I don't personally visit that site very often). If someone using an official company account was rude to you, I sincerely apologize.
> Unless the feedback admits that the candidate was discriminated against because they were a member of a protected class, it is benign.

I think it's more about if the candidate can interpret it that way than anything else.

They also have very deep pockets...
How To: Empower Users to Get Started Quickly with the Self-Service Catalog
I think you misunderstood your parent. A lot of modern C++ 'libraries' are header-only, because they heavily use templates. There is no object code or library to link against until you instantiate templates.

Yes, why? You were the one that said:

Question about the performance of Python

Ask HN: How to tell my husband to quit?
My beloved husband is a co-founder of a startup with modest traction/growth for the last 3-4 years. He loves it with a passion, but it's still not profitable and the runway will soon run out (again) in a few months.

If he manages to raise more, then I feel like he/we will stay in limbo for another year or so, just postponing the inevitable.

If he doesn't manage to raise, then I think he'll still try to keep it alive, somehow, sucking away attention/energy from potentially greater things.

He's taking a half of the salary that he would easily make elsewhere. Works long hours. Furthermore, his startup is location depedenant, and is keeping us from moving back to our home on another continent. (proximity to his cofounder and market is a must)

His role in the team is critical, and him leaving would be the equivalent of shutting down the company, as finding someone with his set of skills is far out of budget.

I think he should cut his losses so that he and move on, but I don't wan't to crush him either.

Would it be immoral of me to ask him to quit?

How do I bring this up and convince him without destroying him?

How realistic is it that a company that has been running for 3-4 years can make a turn around without any kind of huge pivot involved?
As best I understand it, Uber's play was for dominance.

Consider Facebook and Google. Together they're worth over a trillion dollars. Now ask yourself: what's the combined net worth of the second-biggest search engine and the second-biggest social network? Nothing close.

In a business where being second or third place is pretty good, you can switch to profit mode as you please. But Uber's valuation only makes sense to me if it lets them dominate a market like Google or Facebook does, setting prices and terms for the industry. I think that if they switch to profit mode, people will start to value them like a normal business, which would mean a giant drop in valuation.

I presume that's why board members supported an aggressive jerk for so long: Kalanick has been undeniably good at seizing territory, and if one sets aside little things like morals and externalities and long-term consequences, one could argue that aggressive jerkiness is exactly what Uber has needed.

Honestly, this market never struck me as one where dominance was even possible, so the investors' theories never made sense to me. But that's my best guess as to why they've been allowed to keep burning money like this.
Call me simple-minded, but if you serve the time, you should regain all rights. How is any of this constitutional? Like, how can your right to vote be removed?

I hate to say it but I concur... mostly.

The idea that is different here is that it is an invite only system - meaning no spam.

The first question that came up for me was 'who do I invite' - I had to think who in the team is an early adopter and would be receptive to trying something new. Then my next thought was to Hangouts them and tell them what I was doing so they did not see an invite for something unknown... then I thought... Why don't I just email them... and lastly... Why am I doing this again? I have already everything I need to talk to them... What is the advantage of this service?

As it stands, I get very little spam.

So what is the value prop?
While your comment puts the high level business model in rather simplistic terms, which I agree with, how is it that "running a mini cab system" costs them 700 million per [time period] and why does said system require 6700 employees as of April 2016 (according to quora)

Laura's post from feb stated that on the ops/sre/infra team alone they had ~126 engineers, though I don't know if that includes managers... but it made it sound like there were many layers of managers, thus all the infighting

So can't they cut some of this?
Better service? That is highly arguable.

What Azure and GCE both have over AWS is better performance and better cost. AWS on the other hand has more services that just work together. So you either choose ease of integration or better performance. My company chose ease of integration.

Example, Amazon owns its CDN, Amazon owns all its services. Everything is in house, developed to work together, and just works out of the box, and you are dependent only on AWS.

Azure CDN uses Akamai. So it's not entirely in house designed and built. So we are now reliant on two companies working smoothly together rather than just one keeping it together. Not a huge issue, but something my company also had to factor in on reliablity.

Same with SLA. AWS has a better up time than Azure and GCE.

Again, not to say these services are inferior, but to say Azure is a better service is a lie. Does it have better performance on networking and HDD side? Yes, but I will take slower performance over a better up time, every time.
I chalked some of the differences to being more defensive than AP

For example, I'd be surprised if you took one of those competing systems to "fail road" and it started to veer the way Tesla's system does instead of disengaging
So .. you think they ... don't?
Simon Head wrote "Worse than Wal-Mart: Amazon’s sick brutality and secret history of ruthlessly intimidating workers" back in 2014, and if anything, it's gotten worse since then.

It's not limited to warehouse workers, either. In 2015 Jodi Kantor and David Streitfeld of the New York times published an expose of the hard-charging environment at Amazon, with stories about employees reduced to tears at their desks.

https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/16/technology/inside-amazon-...

That was so untrue, that Jeff Bezos felt the need to send out a memo stating how much he has never seen that side of Amazon, which, as CEO, of course he's never been mistreated by middle management.
Don't imagine for one second that Uber wouldn't jack up prices in a heartbeat if they were the sole monopoly in NYC just like Yellow Cab was.

Uber's great in that they give competition to an entrenched monopoly of Yellow Cab.

But put Uber in a monopoly position anywhere and you'll see the rates skyrocket.

There needs to be a number of forces in the ride sharing market to keep prices down.
I don't have a particular project in mind but rather a broad suggestion.

Software is fun, but hardware is now "easy" -- There are plenty of hardware starter kits from places like adafruit and seed studio that you could drop into your office and let people have at it.

A few hundred bucks (and lets face it that isn't a lot if your doing software) can get you a lot of toys for people to play with and explore with.
Oh, looks like the top result for dryer temperature was just wrong. And the various numbers I'm seeing for what temperatures are dangerous for lint are wildly inconsistent.

But I can say for sure that those tested dryers are getting much hotter than necessary. Look at the designs on page 6 and 7. Small heater boxes with thin hot coils. If you redesigned it as a big block of heatsink fins with the heating element buried inside, you'd be a lot further away from causing ignition. It would cost more, but in a sub-$100 way.

So I'm unsure at this point. I don't have the resources to test exactly what temperatures are necessary and safe, and which one is higher.
This encapsulates my feelings so well. I feel like I am watching King Kong and Godzilla fight it out and I don't really know who to root for since they are both going to destroy Hong Kong when they are done with each other.
symlinks for ~/Downloads and ~/Documents into ~/Dropbox is my only interesting upgrade. Across the varying different devices I have different things selectively synced. Large media files are the only things that don't live in dropbox in some way or another. It's pretty convenient for mobile access (everything accessible from web/mobile). I've done some worrying about sensitive documents and such, but most of it is also present in my email, so I think I lost that battle already. It also means there's very little downside to wiping my HD entirely if I want to try a different OS (which I used to do frequently, but ended up settling on vanilla ubuntu).
I'm pretty sure that's deliberate. If you replicate this in the real world, it's just over too fast.
This is too short-sighted. In my city a lot of people use Uber INSTEAD of readily available public transit (anecdotal observation). That's kind of a bad deal if it's a widespread truth. This would continue to hurt public transportation funding over time.
yeah sucks to be ebay: No innovations for auctions over the last 10 years, got more and more expensive to put stuff on and with trying to be also a 'marketplace' it is sucking more and more.
Isn't concerned? Unicode has had "regional indicators" since Unicode 6.0, and those typically get shown as flags (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_Indicator_Symbol)

Also note that http://www.unicode.org/emoji/charts/emoji-released.html lists the flags for England, Scotland, and Wales under "Flags/subdivision-flag".
"driver that fails to yield to a pedestrian, drives in a bike lane"

At least in Uber/Lyft you can rate a driver, there are many taxi drivers in NYC who drive rashly and don't do those things you listed and yet if you don't tip they will explicitly ask you to.

To me, the following are the most important things to use a ridesharing app:

Not paying any tip (In Yellow cab, many drivers demand for tip if you don't tip them)

Rating the drivers (It's a positive thing depending on how you view it)

Booking when you are drunk (While there are some apps that let you book yellow cabs we all know how bad those apps are)

Uber as a company or Lyft as a company may be disliked for some of the things they do, but ride sharing is a positive outcome. If the above three points are there for yellow cab, I will happily use them anytime. The way a driver drives is not something specific to uber or lyft.
That's not how C++ templates work. You cannot deliver them as binaries.

Templates are delivered as C++ include files (i.e. source code). When you use them, the compiler fills in the types you want and compiles the result.

For example, there's the std::vector<> template. You can fill in any type that meets the specific requirements of the template and use it like std::vector<int> or std::vector<YourC++ClassType>.

However, you probably won't be able to do std::vector<YourDClassType>. ABI compatibility is not enough to do this as you would be effectively mixing C++ and D source code here.
I downvoted you because this has nothing to do with the article. Whether or not Uber is a good thing is not relevant to Kalanick stepping down or the rotten culture he cultivated.
New haul of distant worlds casts doubt on Planet Nine
The quasi-firing of TK isn't an indictment of Uber as a product, or an overall social good (although both have been intensely debated). It is an indictment of Uber as a business.

Even if we grant that Uber is a huge overall social good, it is clearly not sustainable at its current pace. Uber's burn rate is the highest in history, and the C-suite is barren. The board clearly felt that TK couldn't get Uber out of this mess. And the board, at the end of the day, only cares about long-term share price.
I did this (with dates) for all calculations I did during my PhD and it turned out very useful despite its simplicity. I guess it was simple enough that I could actually be consistent over years. I wish the rest of my projects were as orderly ;)
Armed Bear Common Lisp 1.5.0 released, Java 8 VM officially supported
I'm sorry to hear that. That's very bad luck indeed.

I remember hearing about this project some time ago: https://github.com/OptiKey/OptiKey

It might be helpful as it's an open-source project and if extra features are needed you might be able to add them yourself if you are a programmer.

I mentally bookmarked it because I felt it would be a good "make the world a better place" type project to contribute to if I ever had some spare time.
You make them sound so evil but all of this sounds perfectly legitimate to me.
It even has a -betterC flag.
I suspect that uneven configurations aren't allowed. IIRC, in the die each core has a direct link to the same core on the other CCX, a direct link to the same core on the other dies in the MCM, and a direct link to the same core on the other chip if in a 2P motherboard.

IOW core #13 is the 5th core in the second die, aka the 1st core in the second CCX on the second die. So it would have a direct link to the 1st core in the first CCX on the second die, as well as a link to the 5th core in the other 3 dies as well as a link to the 13th core on the second chip if in 2P.

So it seems quite likely that all 16 CCX's in a 2P server must have the same number of cores.
The law enforcement cited was mostly to keep Uber out of the market to protect incumbents from competition.

Unlike AirBnB which breaks NY City and NY State regulations, Uber does follow NYC Taxi & Limousine Commission rules imposed on them and Lyft and other services. But in NYC, the Mayor's unsuccessful efforts withstanding, we aren't trying to restrict market entry and basically asking that Uber drivers undergo the same screening as Yellow Taxi drivers.

Is there any reason why you can't use S3?
That's correct and any of the various MS runtime libraries simply set it by default if you didn't. Thus this error[1] (in C) and this[2] (in VB).

I work very close to them and looked at their job offerings. Their salaries are 'ok', increasing their salaries would make the largest difference.
> A $125 / 12 hour lease fee comes to over $90,000 per year

This comes out as 8640 hours per year, which is 360 days.

So we're talking about the income a taxi owner can get from a medallion.

What an individual taxi driver had to pay to work is a much lower number. Typically a full time job is around 2000h/year.
Tipping ruins the rating system. Just flat out destroys it.

Buses and trains carry a lot more people per trip so the use of Uber pool does not negate the greenhouse gas argument. Uber pool will pollute more than other forms of mass transportation. Uber pool is only a subset of Uber users too.

The point of parole should be to prevent future criminal acts. Making "everyday crime" (like loitering, jaywalking, speeding, "driving with a broken light") a possible breach of parole defeats this purpose and thus is no alternative. It's keeping someone in constant fear.
Amazon accounts for 43% of online sales currently.

But accounts for less than 5% of retail sales overall. Until they start hitting a bigger chunk of total sales, I would not consider them too big to fall. Walmart is too big to fall, as it litterally controls a bunch of local economies. If Amazon closed tomorrow, there would be a shitty time in Seattle, but people would just go to Ebay, Walmart, Etsy, and Alibaba.

If WalMart closed tomorrow, a good chunk of the southern states would run into a state of emergency because the unemployment rate would skyrocket, and there would be no companies to pick up the slack locally, so local economies all across the US would crash.

Many towns would lack groceries or supplies because WalMart is all they have after WalMart ran everyone else out of business. How many businesses has Amazon shut down across the entire US?
The discussion on 4-9 is worth looking at. Among policymakers on both sides of the aisle, there is this reflexive recitation that trade increases economic efficiency. While that's true, that assumes the purpose of national policy is to increase economic efficiency. To the contrary, the mandate of politicians in a Democracy is to improve the welfare of the majority of voters.

Likewise, the discussion on 13-15 is important. People don't like the idea of valued social progress being undermined by unfair competition. There is an intuitive appeal to the idea that workers in America or Germany shouldn't have to compete with workers in countries where child labor is accepted and environmental standards are non-existent.

People wonder why boring trade policy becomes such an emotional thing, and the article does a great job of explaining why. The reason is not just scapegoating, as apologists of globalism assume. Rather, there is a deep-seated belief that citizens of the world types simply don't share our most basic values: that the government exists not to advance ideals, but the welfare of the polity; that social advances that are widely celebrated in the western world are worth more than economic efficiency, etc.[1]

[1] There is a reason even Trump campaigned on cleaning up the air and water. Even Americans who think the EPA or OSHA or DOL are out of control wouldn't tolerate the labor and environmental standards that exist in Bangladesh or China.
You are wrong. Look up federal supervised release.

Honest question. How do companies in the US go about assessing the solvency and financial status of suppliers. In Sweden annual reports are public records for all limited companies, not only public companuee. How would US company determine that a supplier is solvent and not at risk of bankruptcy, which would be a risk to build into supply chains etc?
Call center in India ? But but but ... you guys said Indians are taking jobs away from the US. Why cant business be profitable with call center in the US itself. Greedy corps wants profits, outsource it and then innocent Indian employees gets the flak for it. Just wow !
This is how Wal-Mart maintains its position, and grows to where it is today. Thats Business at their level.

I sympathize however. Strong Arming small and middle sized businesses, which are the bedrock of American Capitalist Power is just egregiously scummy. This is also what I think is currently gone wrong with the American Capitalism, but thats another comment, somewhere, sometime I guess :)
