How is coal cleaner than ever ?

China and India burn a lot of coal... because they have a lot of inhabitants. But they have also got much more renewables than the US.

Where is pricing info? Fail.
I remember I went for a job interview at a law firm, and one of the more junior people interviewing me brought me out to lunch. It was freezing outside, but he left his jacket in his office. I asked him why he left it there, and he said it was so others would think he was in the office. I'm pretty sure I didn't get that job, but I'm glad for it.
How does this work? Where does the audio come from? Does it use some database of recorded IPA sounds, or does it convert from text to speech on the fly?
Best Back Scratching Techniques
Am I missing something here? I don't see any pricing model which will encourage people to post their "apps" here.
Same. On the rare occasion I get more than about 500 calories at lunch, and i have to be very careful about what I eat or I'm dozy half the afternoon. A salad is fine, or a bowl of ramen or similar if folks happen to be going out somewhere that serves it, but anything heavier than that and I'm going to have a bad time. A nice side effect is that a normal-sized supper generally does make me sleepy, which helps with getting to bed at a reasonable hour.

I can recommend the practice, especially to skinnier folk who would like to stay that way - too late for me, I'm afraid, despite three miles' worth of foot commute daily, but it does wonders for my afternoon productivity nonetheless, and if it doesn't actually help lose weight then it does at least help keep it stable.

How Facebook Is Becoming a Local Search Player, Email Campaign Ideas and More
It's funny, but I find a bit of the opposite. If I get up from my desk and pace the hallways for 10 minutes, that'll give me far more energy than a nap... not sure what's more socially acceptable though: sleeping on the job or pacing like a madman.
John Carmack’s Deep Nights
Does it also hold for alcohol and impaired libido?

That would probably be a good start for a campaign against alcohol.

In Australia I think we have a really good system, although politicians are trying to destroy it now.

You get an interest-free loan for your education, the only thing it accrues is inflation. The loan is repaid as a percentage of your taxable income if and only if that taxable income is greater than 54k or so. It means that you will potentially never be asked to repay your student loans if you never find professional work.
Wings work for what we want them to do, and have since they were first tried.

Stellarators don't.

Progress has been minimal.

The more so if one recognises the distinction between Texas Sharpshooting -- drawing targets around the holes we've made with various technical methods -- and the actual initial intent.

This particular problem has turned out to be vastly more difficult than anticipated or advertised. I've watched what little progress has been made over more than 40 years.

You can take a look near Antibes. There is a technopole with a lot of IT companies.

I passed few month ago a interview for a company called Supralog located near Antibes. They looking for java ressources to work on customer's project. They offered me a place as recipient to work on Air France's project. But I'm actually living in Nantes and have to decline the offer cause of the location.

Overall, there is more jobs in France than ressources.

ps : my company is also looking for new collaborators in Nantes area.

I can see how taking a break from the regular grind can help things, but not sure that naps are really the answer. Going to a buddy's office to shoot the breeze, or taking a walk around the block seem equally beneficial.
That's awesome. I like that you just came out with this when the others have posted...and that it only has 1 point! It's simple and to the point. I may not be your customer base but think the email is a great method of delivery. Especially if the mails were sent with some metadata in the message body that made searching for the mails easy. If you packaged it into a Chrome extension ( easy enough to make ) you could accept payment using the extension APIs and people could just click your extension's page action to save the page. It would be effortless. And a few seconds / minutes later, they'd get an email notification....this is giving me ideas! :) Anyway, I wanted to congratulate you and reach out since yours seems to me just as good as the others and it is perhaps not getting quite as much attentions as theirs. Good luck! :D

P.S I wanted to ask have you had much interest / use / payment for this? :);p
Improve Brand Loyalty Using These Email Marketing Tips
You could say the same about electrical or mechanical engineering, both of which are already pervasive.
Car manufacturers have been knee-deep in electronics and sw for decades now. 50% of all engineering work on a new car is sw and virtually no function in a modern car is not at least partially controlled by sw. The industry is in the process of switching onboard communication to TCP/IP on ethernet and switching the electronic architecture to pc-like nodes running linux. Linux is the state of the art in infotainment already.

And no offense, but your point about the people in the automotive industry is nonsensical. Only a tiny fraction of engineers are working on the drivetrain and most of even those people would take offense at being called ludites. In fact, electric drivetrains are (and have been for years) one of the big hypes in the industry.
I've been programming for 13 years.
I started when I was 14 years old and studied software engineering at university. These days, when I take on well-paid contract work, sometimes I find myself working alongside people who only started learning to code at around 25 and never went to university.

It's upsetting for me to think of all the fun I missed out on in my early life because I was learning programming and pushing myself through university and it turns out that it doesn't even get me a higher pay check in the end.

These days, nobody cares that I'm proficient in all of ActionScript 2 , ActionScript 3, C/C++, C#, Java, Python, AVR studio (microcontroller programming), MySQL, Postgres, MongoDB, RethinkDB, PHP, Zend, Kohana, CakePHP, HTML, CSS, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, JavaScript, Node.js, Backbone, CanJS, Angular 1, Angular 2, Polymer, React, Artificial Neural Networks, decision trees, evolutionary computation, times/space complexity, ADTs, 3D shaders programming with OpenGL, 3D transformations with matrices, image processing... I can't even list them all. I could wipe out 95% of these skills from my memory and get paid the same.

It only gives me extra flexibility... Which it turns out I don't need because I only really need two of these languages (C/C++ and JavaScript) and a couple of databases.

Objects in orbit don't suddenly stop being in orbit. There's no reason a black hole would de-orbit into Earth.

And if it did, it would largely continue to orbit through the Earth, or what bits of it remained following passage.

That said, I don't suspect the approach would be particularly viable.
Used to work on Tesla Vision / Autopilot Vision. They used Caffe, were switching to Tensorflow when I left, but might be moving to Caffe2 now.

Usually no OpenCV on successful products. Facebook Ads has dedicated research engineers implementing their real time photo analysis algorithms.
Dude, get a life!

I mean, does it really matter? Movies are flawed with much deeper issues that no one will ever care about types. When we correct the story and scientific reasoning behind the sci-fi movies, then we can think about use/misuse of types.

I think it can cause iron deficiency but I don't know exactly what type of tea that is and how much you'd have to drink. Drinking it with your meal is probably unwise if you have a known iron uptake problem.
Legally, no, but culturally yes - mostly because of family influence.

The immigrants children born in the US would be american. not immigrants. However, they are obviously going to get a lot of culture from their parents. They might get a second language when young, different customs, and more than likely different food. This was my grandmother. Most of her brothers were educated and lived decent lives, most definitely better than their parents.

My father - and his brothers and sisters - were split in how well they've done. The older children did just as well as the previous generation. They had less influence from the grandmother, but still carried a lot of traditions forward. The younger children had a rougher life after their father died (the older children were better able to cope).

My generation is likely the last that'll carry some of the traditions forward. We are basically normal folks. We have fond memories of eating Syrian food at Grandma's house, and most of us can cook a bit of it. It isn't often enough for our children to have fond memories of it. My generation really isn't passing that stuff along, even though it is part of our memory, our identities, and we might even talk about it in casual conversation. It just isn't a distinct enough part of our identity to pointedly pass along.
I think CO and CO2 are what I'm thinking of. Maybe if you sat in your car in the garage...?
Ubuntu Systemd Vulnerability
Looks like another application the key exchanges algorithms used in Mozilla Weave/Firefox Sync. They used to do that to associate new devices and send them the keys, but they killed that because the UX was more complex than user/password.
https://transfer.sh/ is another neat service which allows you to upload a file easily using a tool such as curl and get a shareable link. There was one time when I only had Chrome Remote Desktop access to a machine without root, where this was a convenient way to share some files.

$ curl --upload-file ./hello.txt https://transfer.sh/hello.txt

My point is that everybody should have a website somewhere (my C1 at cloudscale is 3.59€ per month). Everybody should have a ftp client configured to access it without hassles.
My Austrian grandfather had the same habit, and while I never inquired, I suspect it had a similar sort of origin - of his brothers, all those I had the chance to know shared it.

Whether this had any effect on their all having been successful small business owners, one of whom manufactured parts used in every Space Shuttle orbiter, I can't really speculate - that's just one of the many conversations I'll never quite be done regretting the preclusion of opportunity to have with these very worthy and remarkable men, none of whom survived into this millennium. But it wouldn't surprise me all that much.
Absolutely.

Just as reading and writing is part of current ordinary jobs like consultancy or plumbing, in the future everyone will be working so closely with the machines they need basic skills:

- How do various UIs work? This is more of a "power user" type skill but nonetheless it's worth practicing. You'll also need an idea of how things work from the user side to write the UI later on. For example you could learn how iOS and Andriod work by playing around with it, and then having a go at making your own apps.

- How does networking work? Stuff will break, just like your plumbing and bureaucracy. You'll need to know at least how to diagnose why you have no internet connection.

- Superficially, how does a given algorithm work? The kids don't need to know everything about DNNs but they have to have the overview of what image recognition does, so they can form expectations about how they will interact with it.

- Security. There's going to be more and more stories about breaches. Just as we teach them sex ed, they need some basic knowledge about how a password is stored, what encryption is, and so on.
Code Owl: One place, all your dev findings
Though "Asian" heritage (assuming an implicit East before Asian) would include Japanese and Korean culture, both of whom are comparatively considerate of noise, at least in social contexts.

That would prove to be an interesting "control" but I have less anecdata to draw from there...
"Cleaner than ever" still ain't clean.

"I murdered fewer people last year!" would be a terrible defense for Jack The Ripper.
Yes but you can use your advantages. It's only about finding the right opportunity.
Donating company money is really hard, especially if you're just some manager of some department, and double so if it's not to a registered charity. Much easier to actually buy something like a support contract or a license where you get a purchase order and a receipt from a registered organization. People at companies simply cannot just give company money to random people with paypal accounts even if they think it's the right thing do to.
Faecal Bacteria 'in Ice in Costa, Starbucks and Caffe Nero'
Audi will introduce the world's first mass production car with lidar-based automation features in a few months. They will introduce their first fully electric SUV next year. I would be very careful when throwing shade on them right now.
Not quite, some goods have very high tariffs and added import taxes and are checked upon heavily like (where I live) bicycles, anything containing a flat screen and non-consumer electronics (parts).
If you get caught (and you will at one time) you pay the VAT, import taxes and sometimes a fine for not reporting which amounts to more than what you would have payed locally.

It is by no means a fix but the government is not always making it as easy as you would like to skip on duties added to level the playing field.
Postage aside, which is skewed by treaties, the main purpose of import tariffs is to offset labor costs which they do pretty well in my opinion.

I do have to say that in my experience buying from both China and local (Europe) the European product are always of higher quality if you buy cheap, even if the country of origin was China in the first place. Since that is not always needed, you buy China, otherwise local.
Maybe it's an artifact of this interview format, but the researcher's conclusions seem a bit undersupported. For example, given the fact that male-male erotica is very common in fanfiction, a female-dominated activity, it would not surprise me if the "excess" gay porn was consumed by straight women, a demographic that we know is attracted to males.
Is OpenCV (traditional CV technique) better to use or Deep Learning based approach? Has anyone done a comparison of the two approaches? The obvious flaw with deep learning is that it requires large labeled data sets - but assuming that is available, which one is more accurate at object detection (hotdog or not), detecting features on an image (faces, manufacturing defects)?
A lot has changed in the past 5 years or so. Anecdotally, 5 years ago I'd bet that 90% of programmers either had a CS background or something very similar (ECE or Comp. Eng.).

Today, I think that number is down to 50% or maybe even less. So many of my friends who went to excellent schools but had degrees in Biology, Biotech, Physics, and even some social degrees (including a pianist) now are full-time programmers.

I agree with your sentiment though; if you don't need a CS degree to get a CS job, then maybe try something else during college. Take programming courses at your local coding bootcamp.
Anaconda provides its own separate package-management world, so it makes sense that it doesn't include pip. But you can always still install it.
Why the conversational UI? Think there are few problems that are best solved by chatbots, party-planning doesn't seem to be one of them.
I don't think there's much predictive power there. The people who are answering thousands clearly just haven't though about it before and are on the spot. Humans are just terrible with big numbers, and thousands sounds like a lot already.

You may as well ask any other sort of technical trivia question and figure the people that happen to carry around more random facts about tech are more likely to understand the bigger things that do matter. It isn't necessarily wrong it's a pretty obtuse way to make a judgment. Why not just ask them about the memory hierarchy or network delays or whatever directly?
How would you measure how much of the profits a company makes come from open source efforts?
It's still very easy to install. And as of Python 3.4 it's even easier since you can 'python -m ensurepip'.
I'm not entirely sure that's the case.

It's occurred to me that AI might actually represent a form of nonscientific capability. That is, the ability to achieve results but without the understanding or structured knowledge that we consider to be part of science.

That's not saying that AI will solve the problem, just what the situation might be should it do so.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around what it actually does itself.
Or perhaps not, considering there are cultures where a noon or early-afternoon nap is not particularly out of the ordinary. No one's really talking here, in any case, of needing a daytime nap, but rather of finding one beneficial to productivity.
I have never seen a company, large or small, which disabled USB ports. Because convenience is always higher rated than security.

Glueing is much easier, can't fail with wrong configurations or roll outs, works if people have too many permissions on Linux and in a myriad of other ways.
I guess local sellers should try to add value by providing support, warranty and other things on top of the product.
Well, it's not really practical to not ever reuse some initial lest some of the 180+ countries in the world (or worse, some particular sub-group within a country/culture) has some history with it in a totally unrelated context.

I find this kind of post-factum concerns funny as well (same with banning Mein Kampf etc today) -- it was 1933-1945 when the German people should have been really concerned about Hitler, not 2017. The new threats of today don't need Mein Kampf or the freedom to use "HH" initials -- they can make their own stuff even if they care for the Nazis, and usually they have their own, 2017 names and agendas to use anyway. So all it does it reduce some historical guilt.
They do, when you are out of the field of view.
If I'm honest, I usually don't mind the slide up and down header if the navigation is there, means that it is always close by.

Now this is boring. People keep complaining about the fact that China's cheap stuff is flooding the US market. How about exporting some expensive US made stuff to China to close the gap of trading?

Oh, you can't. Chinese living in China are not even allowed to buy Intel Xeon Phi cards, export license is required to safeguard your nation.

Maybe make the US short term visa more accessible to Chinese tourists so they can spend more cash in the US?

Oh, you can't. tens of millions Chinese with science/engineering degrees will have to go through the mantis check managed by FBI to make sure they won't steal your nuke techs when visiting the casinos in Vegas. It can take up to several years to get a US tourist visa.

Why do some people write the dollar sign after the number? Similarly, why do some people write the percent sign before the number? I initially thought it might be a locale thing (like swapping commas and decimal points), but I've seen a lot of Americans doing it too.
Yes, you're right, tag_union does throw a compile time error, I didn't read that correctly. By your earlier comment I was primed for a `_Static_assert` and when I didn't see that. I thought it had been left out entirely rather than reimplemented in a different manner.

On the subject of tone--I honestly believe that the original code has severe subjective design flaws and objective implementation errors, and since the post was gathering upvotes but no critique I was worried that people believed that the code was correct. There are still some nitpicks about your new version, but these are fairly minor in my view (the use of reserved identifiers is pretty tedious and easily avoided). The remaining non-nitpick, what I consider to be a show-stopper, is that you can't switch on the tag. 90% of the time when I'm using a tagged union, I'm doing switch (evt->type). While we can substitute a chain of if/else, I'm not fond of the ergonomics and I would prefer a traditional enum. This is a subjective trade-off, however.

Your responses would have been fine if they were criticisms of my argument or of the tone I took. Perhaps I crossed the line, and you called me on it? But these comments are unacceptable ad hominems:

> Oh, the horror. It's C, a language that generally expects you to know what you are doing.

> Wit beyond measure, fascinating.
Out of the ocean might make far more sense, as the energy costs are lower. There's exchange from atmosphere to oceans.
Not necessarily. A more specific selector overrides a less specific one, and a later selector overrides an earlier one.
The model of "freemium" OSS of paid and community editions is pretty popular: Zimbra, JBoss, Postgres, MySQL, etc.

Ubuntu is special because there's only one version for community and commercial, which can have paid support, whereas RHEL/CentOS is kind of a hack-around that they might as well make completely free except for the commercial packages (RPMs).
> Recently I've been doing research on a programming problem that has come up at the new job, I pulled the related research and the canonical first representation of the problem on a computer was formulated in 1966 and the issues it addressed in the paper are identical to the way the processes are run at new employer, almost word for word.

Computing is weirdly ahistorical. Hardly anyone ever looks at the research; everyone prefers to invent it themselves.
