I read "Each... value includes the hash of the previous value... chaining the sequence of values together" which is how immutability is ensured. (Amending a prior value would invalidate the hashes of every subsequent value.)

I would agree that what you state are factors, but I would disagree that they are the main factors.

One thing I notice in my work (in product management) is that people naturally gravitate towards shiny things. So we design things to be shiny in order to attract those people.

At various points, a specific aesthetic gains popularity because, for well-founded reasons, it increases usability and readability. Then everyone starts to imitate it, partly because it works, but also partly because people are drawn to it. Then frameworks are created to enable teams to rapidly replicate the style.

At a certain point, the frameworks are good enough to just replicate the style in basic settings with little input needed from someone who is actually thinking really hard about the design. In many ways that's a good thing because it lowers the barrier to entry. It's much easier to make things because the framework drastically reduces the amount of wheel reinventing you'd need to do. But you end up with designs where nobody really thought that hard about it - and so you end up proliferating potentially bad defaults encoded in the frameworks.

I'm personally much more willing to believe that the decline in overall design quality is due to negligence from convenience.

yet another web framework medium article with a misleading angular vs react comparison.

it isn't angular 2 anymore. it's just angular. it's been out for over a year and if people were having problems running it in production, we would hear about it. there are many sites running angular 2-4 in production, google it and see for yourself. just because google didn't rewrite gmail in angular doesn't mean you shouldn't use it.

I wonder if there is some highly ranked google search result that spreads this misinformation, months after some of these points were valid.

> celebrating failures in crypto

There is absolutely nothing wrong with doing that. Crypto and algorithms do not have feelings.

Regardless, discussions about discussions do not make good discussions.
sad but true, this echos much of my own observations in the industry.
Ah okay. Certainly that sounds like the fairer way to handle it!
I think specifications should be either really loose or really strict.

The ones that fall in the middle are harmful.

It just leads to a million kind-of-similar things but because there's insufficient similarity you can't reap the benefits of having the spec (think automated documentation tools, pluggable APIs, client/server tools, etc).

It turns into a religion and a word that everyone ends up using but hardly any two people agree on exactly what it is.

If there's a spec for something it should have a corresponding verification tool that takes your stuff as input and basically validates it down to a yes/no answer. Your API is either compliant or not end of story. It shouldn't be a shade of grey that leaves room for arguments and lengthy blog posts about the philosophy of the spec.

The spec can still accommodate and allow for some uncertainty and flexibility but in a controlled manner and while maintaining an unambiguous specification.
Proof of work allows participants to trust the ledger in a way that is enforced by cryptography, not by law. This creates a powerful deterrent for certain kinds of fraud and abuse.

I agree that waste-heat-generating proof of work is inefficient, but that does not mean that no proof of work system exists where the work itself has some positive externalities.
Agreed 100%. I don't think memory maps will ever go away as the "API" between hardware and software -- the "alternatives" always seem to involve staggering complexity or a violent neutering on either the SW or the HW side (always the opposite of the person doing the talking, of course) -- but I do think that it's profitable to contain that interface beneath application code, preferably with a language-enforced barrier. I'm cautiously optimistic about Rust's "unsafe" as well. I'm just not cautiously optimistic about python :-)
If T-mobile has a weakness, it is not signal strength. Coverage maps are a red herring. If you look at AT&T coverage in SoCal, you would think that they have it on lock. However in Downtown LA, AT&T is atrocious, and T-Mobile is stellar.
Even if signal is weak where you live, T-Mobile was the first to unlock WiFi Calling for its phones. They even give you an awesome router for your home.
If somebody is telling you that T-Mobile coverage sucks, its because they have no other complaints than this subjective opinion. Remember, coverage = Your Mileage May Vary

If they succeed, you'll likely get your wish in more ways than you bargained for. The NE corridor is the only part of the entire Amtrak system that's even close to solvent, and it subsidizes the rest of the system. This project would take the bottom out of the part of the network that pays for the rest of it. It would probably kill Amtrak, everywhere, even in places that will never see a hyperloop.
No. The alternative sync options are for "If you don’t want the benefits of a 1Password membership", and a "team" or "family" account is by definition a 1Password membership.
Well, now we are talking semantics. You don't get to claim you are correct if your forecast turns out to be wrong. So, if you identify a bubble, part of the requirement to say that you succeeded is that you can identify the top. Otherwise, your "knowledge" that it's a bubble is useless

A warning if you want to try out BBR yourself:

Due to how BBR relies on pacing in the network stack make sure you do not combine BBR with any other qdisc ("packet scheduler") than FQ. You will get very bad performance, lots of retransmits and in general not very neighbourly behaviour if you use it with any of the other schedulers.

This requirement is going away in Linux 4.13, but until then blindly selecting BBR can be quite damaging.

Easiest way to ensure fq is used: set the net.core.default_qdisc sysctl parameter to "fq" using /etc/sysctl.d/ or /etc/sysctl.conf, then reboot. Check by running "tc qdisc show"

> when the root cause of the issue (having to work on-site, or in a city) seems like such an easier issue to solve.

That's not actually easier to solve. Only theoretically and only if your theory involves only robots and is specific to a dozen cities.

Study after study keeps proving most people like working physically with other people. The majority would prefer to not telecommute. It also keeps getting proven that most people perform their jobs much better on location rather than telecommuting. Amazing things happen from physical human interaction that do not happen telecommuting. Bell Labs and Xerox PARC would never happen via telecommuting. These things are not true for everyone, they're simply true for most.

Beyond that, it's a small minority in the US that has a housing cost problem. Overwhelmingly the US is the land of inexpensive housing compared to other nations with comparable median incomes.
The 20 cases for underflow and overflow [0] show how difficult it is to develop error-free contracts. Would have been great if the VM would detect such cases and thus make the contract code less polluted with boundary and overflow checks.

Some projects have started sharing audit results publicly directly in their repos [1]. It's a great read to see common errors and yet unsolved issues that originate in the ERC20 token specification.

There seems to be a generation of devs taking over that is less about making sure things work and more about padding their CV with the latest bling tech.

End result is that unless you manage to keep up with their bleeding edge web dev mentality of moving fast and breaking things, the stuff you depend on for whatever you are doing will be mothballed or tossed out in short order.
This round is likely to be a combination of equity, debt and non-dilutive capital like project finance -- and it is not the first 9-figure deal in indoor ag, just the first made public this way. Indoor ag is growing quickly and investor appetites are up.

I am co-founder of a venture-backed indoor ag company. Here is a good summary of the "on the ground" view authored from the woman who runs Indoor Ag Con where Plenty presented a couple months ago: https://agfundernews.com/will-2017-bring-indoor-ag.html

The calorie problem is true. You can't feed the world on leafy greens. Many startups are trying to combine aquaponics to provide protein with leafy greens. Those startups are not as far along as Plenty.

Cannabis is great but the cost and price are both on an almost inevitable path to commodification. It's high-value now but it will not always be high value.

Insects may be the greatest area for advancement in indoor ag. Insects can be used for protein, vitamins and nutrients and calories from fat concentrations.

The real advantage is something analogous to alternative energy's advantages: distributed infrastructure with lower risk and lower volatility.

I never quite understood Apollo. I've written GraphQL servers using just the Node.js GraphQL implementation and they haven't been much code. Barely more boilerplate than the Apollo example given.

I am assuming it does add value and I'm just not seeing it.

Sure, but the interstate highway system's capital costs are paid mostly by the federal government too -- gas taxes don't come close to covering it so it's decidedly not user-pays -- and nobody expects that to be profitable. National transportation infrastructure is a public good, not a business investment on the part of the government.
I think what you're trying to ask is: Is being labeled gay grounds for imprisonment? Or does one have to be caught in the act of fornicating with a male to be imprisoned? I'm sure it depends on the jurisdiction, but many jurisdictions that have this kind of explicit law usually frowns upon homosexuality so much, that the mere accusation is enough to be damaging.
Why Genghis Khan's tomb can't be found
My personal problem is that people start to present themselves as "React" or "Angular" developers, which is kind of scary for me personally.

It is also hard to explain that you can pick up their framework (e.g. switch to Vue.js from React), many companies just say "no" unless you can provide strong experience. Some companies have better policies and they insist only on core knowledge and principles, but, unfortunately, I personally find them to be in a minority.
I work in an automotive company (one of the big three's) I specialize in Noise and Vibrations. My job description involves testing, analyzing, and solving problems. Everyone I work with has very little to no programming experience (edit - programming is not a part of my job description). We* deal with huge amount of data (coming from sensors and microphones) I like to build custom tools (write software to process the data) so when I am really solving problems, I am spending very little time/effort in data processing and more on analyzing.
(edit - a lot of people dont appreciate the things I do, they like to spend hours on running calculations using a standard software that we have, I see this as waste of time since it can be and should be automated)
> Wow, if they're giving that much away to EV buyers, just think how much they'll hand out to people who walk to work!

Well, if you walk (or bike) to work, your public subsidy is not paying gas taxes (and, having the option to not even pay regular sales tax on your fuel.) If your personal vehicle choice is “I walk or bike everywhere, so I don't need a car”, your additional public subsidy is not paying Vehicle License Fee.

Sure, those are actually public levies on those making the alternative choice, but that's equivalent to a public subsidy for your choice, just with a shift in what is the baseline case.
I think they're doing it for 2 reasons:

1. Money, and

2. Significantly reducing complexity and maintenance burden. Supporting cloud-only vaults is a lot simpler than also supporting local vaults plus multiple different third-party sync mechanisms.

I seriously doubt it. It might be able to get one at some point, but almost definately not multiple.

For a rough idea of the scales, just look at the current reward for finding a block (12 btc) and it's current value (about $31k USD). Miners are just barely breaking even on ASICs, so a $31k miner should be able to pay for itself over it's lifetime.

So unless you have hundreds of thousands of dollars of miners, you aren't going to realistically find a block, and unless you have millions of dollars of ASICs you aren't going to be able to mine enough to keep a chain from dying on your own.
Apart from 1Password 4, there used to be a lesser known 1Password for Windows Modern Alpha/Beta[1] which was a UWP app and supported local vault. The Windows Modern version is no longer in development as far as I know, but I hope they add local vault support to the 1Password 6 for Windows in the future (even though I'm a happy paying 1Password.com user).

San Francisco, unfortunately, occupies a pretty dismal place in the parking hierarchy. It's just dense enough that having a car is generally a hassle, just sparse enough that about half the city is very car dependent. The fascinating thing is that SF actually made a decision to become this way, although it was a long time ago. We actually added driveways and garages to buildings that didn't originally have them, along with curb cuts that ironically take away almost as much parking as they add!

This is a pipe dream, but I'd actually support the removal of driveways and garages. People are doing this anyway - they use their garage as a workshop, for storage, or even illegal living space, and they just park on the driveway, and/or on the sidewalk in front of their house, and/or on the street in front of their house, using the curb cut as a "reserved" parking space.

Here's an interesting read about curb cuts in SF (vs NY), and what they do to street live. The sad thing is that we actually legislated this situation into existence with various parking minimums and so forth.

Even within the current framework, it shouldn't be hard to acquire an underground easement, by market or eminent domain. Shouldn't be very expensive, either. A deep underground tunnel means basically no diminution of property values. Subway and water tunnel projects tend to pay very small token amounts (a few hundred dollars) for similar underground takings. Not quite as streamlined as a "free groundspace" regime, but not a big obstacle.
Exactly. Also, the cost of bad regulation is not just in the aftermath... it's mostly in the period leading up to the crash when so many billions of dollars were invested in the wrong stuff.

The great thing about the modern economy is that capital is readily available, but that doesn't mean that the massive misallocation of capital over a period of decades lacks significant consequences.

Many of the dollars mis-invested into real-estate related investments brought on by tax loophole, sloppy (if not corrupt) regulation of downside risk scenarios, and the undemocratic socialization of risk via the GSEs were all things that had a massive social cost.

To argue, as the GP does, that the regulation and management of the crisis was a success by pointing to a few selected asset prices that were the focal point of knee-jerk populist reactions to the problems is a fairly absurd way to claim success.
I'm somewhat bummed about this - I am a big fan of ShareLaTeX, and have been using it for quite some time. I absolutely love that the whole thing is built on an open-source engine (not just the latex part - you can self-host if you want). Overleaf has a lot of also-interesting features, and probably a more robust revenue stream, but it's always a bit of a bummer when the open-source player in the market gets bought out by the closed-source one.

Hopefully that last bit in the announcement remains true: "Both Overleaf and ShareLaTeX are committed to ensuring that all of the open ShareLaTeX code base will remain open source and will continue to be actively developed."
Does anyone know anything about Dashlane? I had a free commercial account from a previous employer and it seemed nice, other than the popup every time you logged in to an unknown website asking you to save your credentials. I'm pretty sure that was configurable, though.

How could that possibly happen? Local vaults can't just silently turn into cloud vaults, and you need a subscription license to use cloud vaults anyway.
The worst part about this is that it makes people (at work or in side projects) use these and other frameworks for every project ever for the resume padding. Doesn't matter if it's a CRUD app that just needs a form - it has to be a complex web app with a GraphQL backend and 50mb of React frontend.
