From figure 3 in the paper it seems like it outperforms DQN on all games but one. So, it has better end results as well.

Edit: There are other results linked in this thread that are better than the 2015 DQN results that the paper refers to.

Slow-Motion Demolition: Expanding Agent Cracks Concrete from Within
It seems you are missing the point of Rusts safety. Yes that safety does prevent things like segfaults, but the real value is in security. As software becomes evermore critical to our lives in pretty much every aspect, having a system that can be derailed by malicious actors is not just unfortunate in the way that a segfault is, no. It is reckless. At this moment what we see is news about company X or Y being hacked,including some infrastructure like electrical grids. Fast forward a half decade and we will have people being hacked and killed from a distance. All made possible because of bugs.
> Currently the market is in favour of employees, as there is more demand for them than supply

I don't think that's the case, most of the time it's just employers being unreasonably picky. "10 years of C++ experience? You definitely won't be able to hack it in here, we use insert popular language of the day". Or, à-la Google, "we only hire the best, because doing mind-numbingly boring work that will have zero impact on the company bottom line needs the brightest minds on the planet". Or "can't hire gramps, they're too old". When there's a shortage you take what you can get and make the best of it, and it's not the case now.

I don't see anyone glorifying consciousness especially not as some omniscient ideal. In fact I only see people arguing that consciousness isn't really the goal or the focus here but rather that you can't talk with any certainty about whether or not it's possible. You can however point to the fact that we are making progress towards more and more complex relationships and that this looks very much like how we became conscious. Thats all really.
I believe that you're expemplifying survivor bias. People use Bugzilla despite its horrible UI (and in fact, I know of several teams that have GreaseMonkey scripts that create an alternative UI on top of the base Bugzilla one). Bugzilla does a lot of things right, but its UI is not one of them.

GitLab had similar problems with its UI, and they've been improving it. Personally I welcome the improvements (though we use CE and not EE internally).

There's a wealth of literature on these topics, but I'll leave this here: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26729882

It shouldn't be mysterious, your outlook and mood determine your behaviors. However, it goes deeper than that. As for maintaining a level of curiosity, think of the brain as a muscle. Inactivity will cause it to atrophy while exercising it will make it more robust and perhaps help prevent dementia. Our thoughts have a biological basis and like any complex, chaotic system, small changes in one area can lead to large changes elsewhere.

The human brain is literally the nerve center of our body and among its many functions are communicating, coordinating and regulating the organs and bodily functions. Particularly, it's in "control" of the endocrine (hormone) and lymph (immune) systems.

Consider this: Has thinking about your own mortality made you feel depressed? That's an example of your cortex influencing your limbic system. Have you ever seen or read anything that triggered moral disgust? The part of the brain responsible for making us gag when we eat spoiled food is activated when we find something morally objectionable or unfamiliar. Has thinking about an upcoming deadline caused such anxiety that you feel pain in your chest or become short of breath?

As a more apt answer to your question, consider the scenario of a drug addict purchasing their narcotic of choice. The anticipation they experience right before doing their drug is almost as powerful as taking the drug itself. People who do stimulants feel the need to go #2 right before doing the drug.

Lojban has a central planning committee, the BPFK, so there is no danger of "Proper Lojban" falling prey to this, although certainly there have been dialects of Lojban in the past which deliberately were not parseable. They don't last long; none of the Lojban tools work with their experiments, so network effects tend to keep unparseable dialects from becoming popular.

From the beginning, Lojban's design has included this feature. It would be pointless to learn as a language if you intend to extend it in that way.

There are, of course, ways to experimentally extend the language grammatically, as well as a process for changing the grammar, which has happened before via the BPFK. It evolves, but with planning and consideration.

This standard is not unique to Google. It's part of the Schema.org initiative to add semantics to the web. The full definition is here:

http://schema.org/Recipe

The biggest problem with it, imho, is the lack of a proper definition of ingredients. An ingredient is just a plain string containing the unit, amount and name and sometimes an extra note. Having a quadruple instead of a string would make this standard a lot more useful.

I think Salesforce's advantage is its ecosystem and integrations.

However, I would not cite Salesforce as a reference for good UX. It is very labor intensive to get where you need. It takes a ton clicks to get places within the CRM—simple places like to find a contact profile. The Lightening UI makes the click areas for buttons and fields larger, but does not reduce the time or effort it takes to get places within the CRM.

My previous company, Trustfuel, built a business off of Salesforce being a pain for customer success managers to use. Note taking also sucks in Salesforce—Get Pattern's business is building a better note taking tool for AE's.

TBH you'd have the same problem if you based your image off an intermediate Debian/Ubuntu-based image.

I always build my images directly off Alpine anyway, or a base image that I control.

Well, as surprising as it might sound there seem to be many units in the kitchen which are not so easy to convert. One example: How many milliliters does a table spoon have? Google says 14.7868 (american table spoon). I have read from 6 to 25... I mean the problem is that the people who writes those recipes use different definitions of the same unit. And that is just one example. How should you convert units which are so different between different authors?

I agree on the consistency part. Even if you need several (max 4?) other libraries to do stuff like AJAX and Promises, it would still be consistent. If you want and need, you can always add a small wrapper around those libraries and add consistency to the API calls.

Staying current is, in my situation, a luxury I can't afford. We have a web project using third party libraries and UI Frameworks which depend on JQuery. As the project is complex and already has a lot of code, kicking JQuery out is not an option (or, at least, neither trivial, nor quick). I'm sure this happens often with legacy software.
Why SoundCloud’s Silence Would Be Deafening
Some feedback

Preface: offline, I've heard good things about working at Stripe. So the following is intended as constructive.

The 'values' read more like a description of what the owners of any high-performance company would want out of their employees, transactionally-speaking. It reads much less like Stripe has a strong cultural identity. Reading this, it sort of feels like you are asking for a lot of my commitment to the Stripe mission without giving me any reason to buy into it.

I'm not sure there is anything idiosyncratic about this list. It doesn't really convey to me what it's really like to "be a Stripe" as opposed to "being a Googler".

Oh, and this phrase, "being a Stripe", it is the very worst kind of SV affectation. Maybe it works for people who are already at Stripe and proud to be there, but from the outside in, honestly it sends me cringing into the next universe. I don't think you have to be an enormous cynic to have that reaction to it.

Overall this seems to fail the test it sets itself: it doesn't convince me that the top team at Stripe are striving to building the best imaginable place to work, which surely is the best part about building your own company.
