Ask HN: How you manage with Update?
Here is little description of what I mean:

I have dual OS laptop. I occasionally login with both OS based on work that I have to do. But, each time I login I get some update. Update such as Editor, Plugin, OS patch or just a language/frameworks update.

I hate this, because it is time consuming to get update for me (specially with slow Internet connection ) and frustrating because whenever I get update it reminds me that I have to learn now more thing. Also, sometime I fill that it may break something in my pc.

You may suggest to turn of update. But then I fear that, If i do not get update then I might behind in road.

Codepen freezes browser on wrong react code
I've always viewed it as a work expense. The guy bringing his lunch misses out on the conversations that happen and friendships that form over lunch. Whether it's technical conversations, office gossip or just discussing life events, it's an important bonding experience that more easily leads to becoming a close-knit team. There's something subconscious going on with conversations over food that bypasses some of the filters/walls we put up and isn't really replicated in normal work conversations. It's a bit like storytelling that way. I'm guessing it's because primitive humans only shared food with members of their tribe.

At $15/day, 200 days per year, it costs around $3k/yr, which really isn't that much when you consider tech salaries and the benefits it brings. The only downside is I have to be hyper conscious about eating healthy since meals out are optimized for taste, not health (i.e. lots of butter and salt and other stuff that makes it taste really good but not particularly good for me to eat).
Your knowledge, persoective, and experience are valuable. Overall I appreciate this comment. But condescending to someone who disagreed with you is uncalled for and detracts from the rest of what you're saying.

Dorms in the UK usually have a decent kitchen. Mine was like this [1] (the adjacent building to the one pictured), which is nicer than the houses affordable to students in London.

Only one dorm offered cooked evening meals, and then only Monday-Friday. It was a fair bit more expensive to take this dorm.

In any case, most universities only offer dorms for the first year.

Inferior to purely rational decisions not based on emotions?

For me for example, it was switching countries for which I had no emotional desire, I knew it would be hard, I will lose bunch of friends, but in the long run, it will help me in many ways. I can hardly name this decision as desire to move.

Looking back, I was more than 100% correct since it was probably best decision of my life despite all the drawbacks. But if I would listen only/mainly to my emotions, I would stay where I was before.

The thing is, I can do many/most decisions in my life on purely rational level (or so I like to think). I don't see this behavior around me much, in fact it's pretty rare. Same goes for opinions and attitudes - emotions change, cold hard facts remain the same (I must sound very unemotional, which is not true at all - I just can separate the pleasure of enjoying emotions from them taking control and making me do stupid/irrational decisions... don't know how to describe it better).

I'm not gonna argue against that. Using pip-install certainly limits our current audience to people who are comfortable with python packaging tools, which basically means python developers.

I'm hoping to get beyond that, once I get the protocol and feature set stabilized. Using something like PyInstaller or py2app to get a single-file executable will be the first step. Porting it to other languages (I've started on SPAKE2 in Rust) might help too.

FWIW, "apt install magic-wormhole" now works on Debian (stretch) and Ubuntu (zesty). Also homebrew, as mentioned before.

The general purpose computer is already dead for several years, after the OEMs realized they couldn't reduce their margins any further down and the components market is a very tiny portion of their profits.

The PC model was a singularity caused by a cascade of IBM mistakes.

Newegg Marketplace Integration Solution Provider Guide
I think this is why the holy grail is experiences that both sensually overwhelm and educate the user.

Social multiplayer VR games like Star Trek: Bridge Crew will certainly maintain a foothold, but what I and I think most people are looking for isn't a tour of the reality we already experience, but a tour of places that expand upon or altogether do away with reality.

I want to come out of some VR experiences a changed person, just like I would a great journey into the unknown.

I want to experience the bloodshed of war firsthand in such a profound way that I develop PTSD and refuse to support any unnecessary warfare in real life, and develop empathy and respect for veterans.

I want to solve puzzles so intricately deep (4-dimensional, based on different physical laws, etc) that I have no comparison for real life.

I want to create my very own meditation / thinking chamber, where I can surround myself with things I'm trying to comprehend, like a new language, or information surrounding an unsolved mystery, or a multidimensional flow control graph in an interpreted program.

I want to study 3-dimensional star maps and universal simulations like Space Engine [0], because I don't have time to wait for holograms.

I want to physically train my reaction speed, my hand-eye coordination, my racquetball score, etc.

I want to experience VR audiovisual albums that will no doubt be made by experimental artists of the next generation.

When I am putting on a VR headset, if I am not doing so to teach myself, I am doing so to give the opportunity for someone else to teach me with unprecedented access to my sensory system.

That, to me, is the real application of VR. That is why I will probably end up spending hours upon hours in VR-space, like many today spend on their phone, only I am getting something appreciable and of essence.

I think quiet rooms or rest spaces are difficult to maintain when there's too few people using them.

At one company it ended up being a temporary closet room with printer supply and all kind of stuff people randomly tossed in to clear the way. At my current company there's so few people using it it smells dusty and closeted to the point it's unusable to relax.

ad-hoc places worked better for me, like small meeting rooms that are unused at noon, actual storage rooms that are actually very clean and tidy compared to temporary ones, or even a park bench when weather is nice enough

>Very few candidates are Diego Forlan

How would one know? Usually we know a friend who works somewhere and they say the company is shit. Or you work somewhere and someone doesn't work so you end up thinking they're shit. It's not often that you have both sides of the story.

>very few wrote books,

Books might indicate a good communicator and independent ability to complete a task but it's not an indication that someone is a good team member that fulfills a particular role.

>verfy few created a foundational open source project, etc...

I contend that this actually risks being a Balotelli. Good in the right atmosphere, but very independent and often stroppy when they don't get their way. They can be terrific in their element but often they're not good enough to build a team around.

No it is not. We must discourage uneducated college graduates from casting their incorrect understanding of the world to the greater public.

Since when does taking a semester class make you qualified to solve homelessness? Because simply talking about it makes you feel better? This is the problem with 20-25 year olds these days (note: I am in this age group).
This isn't an obvious conclusion; what if a public service yearly loses a certain amount of money, in order for the public to save twice as much? This is a reasonable interpretation of this case, which would make the isolated loss advantageous in the big picture. Of course, this is a separate concept from seller losing jobs.
Would you have any advice especially on how to master design skills and how to deal with pressures around personal finance when starting out on your own? I'm about to quit my job in 'enterprise' software development because I am bored to death.

A good online reference is: http://opencv-python-tutroals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/py_tu...
Does anyone know if tech like OpenCV is used at companies developing their own "computer vision" product, maybe at Tesla? Or do they build their own technology from scratch which isn't available to public domain? Or do they say fork OpenCV and build upon it and heavily modify as OpenCV could be seen as 'outdated' technology.

I love Keybase.. they're doing great things to bind public keys to names at large identity providers (twitter, github, etc). And in many cases, the github username of your intended recipient is the only thing you know about them anyways.

magic-wormhole can help you in the case where you're sitting next to someone at a conference and they don't have a github/twitter account, or if you want don't want to depend on github/twitter/etc access control (e.g. if some bug in github allowed gists to be published under other people's usernames, that aspect of the keybase security story would fail).

It might also appeal to folks who don't care for centralized identity providers. When we worked on Mozilla Persona, we tried to make it possible for individuals to run their own IdPs and "own your own identity". Keybase can sorta do that (by proving ownership of an HTTP or HTTPS URL), but magic-wormhole is "better" in the sense that it doesn't have any concept of identity at all. The file goes-to/comes-from the person who knew the same code, end of story.

I'm interested in some sort of combination: maybe a confirmation step that uses a wormhole code to exchange the expected public keys with a Keybase peer, to make sure they're the same, without needing to type or read the full RSA key. (There's a protocol named SAS, "Short Authenticated Strings", that can be useful in this case).
Agreed. Some of the worst white collar criminals are actually DAs who knowingly prosecute people who shouldn't be prosecuted. They have the power to punish anyone even the innocent with potential prison time even if innocent, and also insane legal fees.

On pharmacy I worked at trained their own pharmacy technicians. You can go to school for it and get a license. If you train at the pharmacy, however, it is not transferable to a competitor.

Some companies have contracts, stating that you must work at the company for x years after completing training. Occasionally there will be money to pay back. This is exactly so the company feels it can get some of its training investment back. I've seen this quite a bit with education reimbursement and management training programs.

You can also simply make your workplace a horrible place to work. Treat employees well, don't take advantage of employees-in-training, give vacations and be reasonable. You know, normal stuff.

I'm in a similar situation but I work in 'enterprise' software development. What makes you hate your job? It seems you are very skilled in various areas and others seem to recognize and value your skills- that seems to me something to be proud of instead of feeling guilty! Is it the pressures that come with the job?
You also need to read the full AES key to your recipient. If you've already got a secure channel to your recipient, great: you can just paste them the key. But if you're sitting next to a new friend at a conference and want to throw them a copy of your secret file without worrying about who else might be able to see it in the future, you might want something more.. ergonomic :).
They have to offer reduced price mail through this treaty, and they'd rather do the ePacket thing which is less of a loss.
Sad to say that I haven't cited these in papers that I've published so far. Much software is taken for granted, especially libraries. I don't often see papers mention SciPy specifically let alone add a citation. The author of GNU Parallel resorted to a message on stderr asking academics to cite it.

But this isn't even the whole story. As we all know, designing and implementing a program or library is often just the first step. Someone then has to maintain that code. There is absolutely no incentive for anyone to maintain these. Institutions will fund new software because they expect a paper to be published about it. But nobody is paying anyone to maintain this stuff.
> Likewise, for the original question, I'd expect some sort of discussion or nuanced answer. Something like, "Well, most modern CPUs are rated at the GHz, so on the basic level, we can say on the order of billions of operations - but we're getting a lot more cores, and given SIMD and such, you could actually go an order of magnitude or two over that, in theory. But if you are doing something that takes lots of clock cycles, it could drop down into 100s of millions, I suppose."

And again, none of that knowledge is relevant or required to be very competent at web development.

The equivalent question to a web developer would be how many lines of code would it take to make a bare bones site with a calculator in it? 1,000? 10,000?, 100,000? Options A and possibly B (with explanation would be acceptable).

Your question (although you don't seem to feel this way) is the equivalent of asking a carpenter: How many Watts of power will you consume while finishing this room? A carpenter who knows that may show lots of curiosity about their tools, but there are also plenty of skilled carpenters who don't know the answer to that.

Your interview question is more asking "How similar is this person to how I approach things?" than "How skilled is this person at doing their job?"
