I have a standing only setup that is based off IKEA's hand cranked standing desk (I take advantage of the empty space below the desk for storage). I started with a makeshift platform on a table to make sure it was not a fad for me before getting my current setup. I found my posture improved while standing.

Having said that, I don't know if my health or anything like that improved significantly by standing.

I love working while standing, but...

I work mostly at home (and we don't wear shoes in the house). I have a standing pad, but my heels were bottoming out to the floor and eventually started experiencing heel pain. I started wearing padded slippers on top of the pad, but by that time it was a little too late. I developed plantar fasciitis in both feet. It was worse in my left foot than my right foot. My right foot has cleared up, and I'm working on stretching exercises to help clear up the left foot and have been making progress.

I am currently using a drafting stool until my left foot gets better. I really miss standing. In fact, I'm itching to get back to standing. I will be making a couple of major changes. I now wear Crocs while standing. I get that they're fugly, but they are in my experience, the most comfortably padded shoes for the price. I use the ones designed for people who work in restaurants, and they're great. I feel no pressure on my heels when using them. I also plan on alternating into sitting a little more often.

-- Notes

If you're thinking of getting the IKEA hand cranked desk, be aware that the table top that comes with it is not solid. I originally wanted to cut a hole in it to permanently mount my dual monitor stand, but doing so would have compromised the structural integrity of the table top.

From what I gather, foot problems are common with people who move to a standing only setup, so take some actions to mitigate this if you can.

That must be even more excruciating to watch than my mom, who types the entire search string while looking at the keyboard.

If I try to hint and say, "look, there's an autocompletion thing that has already guessed correctly what you are painfully trying to write, why don't you click the top suggestion?" she just shushes me away (she's busy concentrating on typing). So I have stopped doing that, and am now just resigned to sit and wait, whenever these things happen.
"Rent is relatively low in Cambridge" is not a sentence I ever thought I'd see.
Why downvotes? I just ran a spell checker on the post, there are literally no spelling errors. There are, however, non-standard words that you may not find in a scientific publication, but you will certainly find in common discourse, and the spelling of all of these is perfectly consistent.

Stuff like "ya boi," "fukk," "nawl," "ho," and "skillz" are words we can find millions of examples spelled exactly like that. They are not mispellings, they are members of the English language that may or may not have been captured yet in some dictionary we all happen to point to and agree is "right."

You're technically not lying then.
I've taken a look at that same desk. Are the surface and edges smooth, or are there rough patches that could snag/splinter? Can you write on paper on the desk surface smoothly?
It's difficult to say by predicting. You'd need to know what every business would pay for your skills at any given time, plus what everyone else was paid for their skills, and the rate of false positive hires or hires that ultimately hurt the employer's bottom line (false positive hires, negative productivity devs, bullshit artists, etc.). That kind of price information just isn't available. Otherwise the market would be closer to efficiently pricing developers, matching devs with jobs, and would be more accurate with what individual skills are worth.
Thanks, wasn't sure how to go about it. Yes, We use CloudFront and Amazon S3 for CDN and hosting.
AMP would have been fine and so much less controversial with a simple change.

Make the AMP icon (or some other element) lead to the AMP page and leave the normal link as the main search result.

I hate AMP for completely practical reasons and have no issue with the ideology. It messes up my back button, the top bar is annoying, and most importantly I frequently have AMP pages fail to load with a white screen but had the normal page load. It's bad enough they're tricking me into visiting an AMP page (I've never intended to visit one), but then it's broken when the source page isn't.
> It turns out that `grammar` keyword generates recursive descent parsers

Yes, P6 grammars generate recursive ascent/descent parsers.

(It allows arbitrary mixes of ordinary P6 closures, using the 'Main' DSL's syntax, with parsing P6 closures, using the 'Regex' DSL's parsing syntax. Purely declarative parts of the latter are true regular expressions and are mapped to automata by the compiler.)

> and anything even a bit fancier still requires a dedicated parsing library.

Huh?

Please explain what it is about the Perl 6 grammar (the grammar for Perl 6 that is itself a Perl 6 grammar) that isn't fancy.

In my recent SO post [1] I wrote "In most cases, the practical answer when you want to parse anything beyond the most trivial of file formats -- especially a well known format that's several decades old -- is to find and use an existing parser.". Is this what led to your "bit fancier" conclusion about P6 parsing?

> Is the language itself a good place for parsing/grammar handling?

Yes.

Not only does this allow devs to more easily write and use parsing code, just as P5 made it easier to write and use regexes, but it also makes it easier to mutate Perl 6 and write DSLs.

>> The biggest issue for me is foot fatigue. I now use 2 anti-fatigue mats - a rubber lower mat (Genuine Joe Anti Fatigue Mat), and a foam upper (Imprint Cumulus9 Kitchen Mat Nantucket Series).

You might want to try Crocs shoes. I found them to work very well for me, even without mats.
That would be unfortunate. I really like Crystal as a fast, typed alternative to Ruby, but I also prefer Ruby as a language to Go or even Elixir, which not everyone does.
Dallas and Houston have a tech job market, but those are the only other serious locations. They're also not really startup markets, like Austin.
If I may pick a nit: there are no pills in sewage streams. We're talking drugs in solution or suspension (the term "dissolved solids" is used in the water treatment industry).

Drugs can very difficult to remove, and water treatment facilities are only able to remove roughly half [https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/only-half-of-drug...].

Did the transition of Flex to be an open source Apache project not go well?

I attended one of the early Flex360 conferences in California to learn more about it and always thought it had potential.

I understand part of SAP (Netweaver I belive) is in part based on Flex or Air to help build custom experiences simply.

Cert only opens the first HR door but after that, you have to learn real work and it's up to you how fast you learn the new job work.

I'd face the same issue when I'd applied for 1st job (at startup/small WordPress company) and HR does not reply next 1-2 days, So I was thinking to scan that company website and found some security issue so download the DB take some important screenshot and sent to CEO and next couple of hours get a call from CEO :)

After that 2nd job, I'd again found security issue and direct email to the 2nd company CEO.
The issue is in INDIA, HR needs Cert/Degree more than what you are qualified for real work.

So in India without cert/degree HR directly rejects you as they don't understand what AWS/Security etc.

I believe hype is actually Musk's primary product: by constantly coming up with these announcements he plays his part in maintaining the narrative of the US being the leader in tech innovation, over and above the narrative of the US being a formerly cutting-edge economy that is in the process of falling behind. (Which one is actually true is debatable, but managing perceptions is an important part of keeping the economy running.) Someone who merely organized solid electric car manufacturing or workable private space launches would probably not be as successful in attracting investment.

I stand corrected, RFC 4038 seems to be what I was looking for. But it seems to be a late addition, and OS support is optional. If developers think moving their apps to IPv6 is too complicated, I can't fault them.
Put another way, the easiest way to leave a legacy is to have children. But there are so many other ways!
I also liked search quite a bit. I was very impressed with the fantastic engineering and the overall UX. But I guess I won't miss the feature big time.
In retrospect, the problem is the US has had poor property tax policies. Property tax should be based on 1) the land square footage and 2) the value of the location. If a lot is double the space of normal lot, the tax should be at least 50% higher. If the price increases sharply, the taxes should as well. This way large lots sizes and price fluctuations would stay in check. The property taxes in SF, by the way, are way too low for the current value and square footage of the lots.
Think of it as incorporating many of the features in all of the languages you mentioned above, but in one language that is designed to grow. The language can easily be enhanced both officially and by the end user. So not too many new concepts for you, just a different syntax.

It's interesting how we, as a nation, decide who's worthy of dying to protect our country. You'd think conservatives would be all in favor of ensuring the undesirables (from their standpoint) were first into battle.
Nice, who would've thought that kayak, opentable and booking were worth north of $100Bn a couple of years ago. Kudos to the folks that made this a reality.
I would probably look into your standing posture. My whole life I didn't know I was standing all wrong until I got a standing desk and stood incorrectly for a week. My lower back and knees (from locking them) were screaming for weeks afterwards. Now I have to learn how to stand correctly to actually use it (but of course we moved offices and I no longer have a standing desk).
"...because I'll start reading the search results, then based on this come up with a new query and start typing it..."

This is a great example of how, from an ML/NLP standpoint, Instant-Search promoted confirmation-bias. If the idea is to learn how a user searches, that user should not be told how they should search.
Yes. Except, "strategic value to the manager"

I disagree with you.

Forgoing the natural biological propensities that genders (and races) have is much more harmful for development and for this society as a whole. Start seeing reality for how it is, not how you wish it to be Roderic.

MBA Application: ADCOM Pet Peeves
You're right to some degree, but there were lots of user studies done. It was a net positive.

One of the amusing things was that users would follow the instant results without necessarily being consciously aware of them. I.e., when describing their interactions with prototypes, only a few noticed and pointed out that they were getting results without pressing Enter, yet a larger number clicked on them. It had to be pointed out to them, at which point they would often go "whoa". I remember a few non technical users who really raved about it.

Yes, but read the "mega backdoor Roth" technique. It allows many people to effectively contribute much larger sums into Roth IRAs, even though there is a $5500 "front door" limit.

If you have a low current marginal rate and a lot of money to stash away for retirement (that might be a semi-uncommon combination), it's absolutely something to look into. I have a high marginal rate, so I haven't done it.

Perhaps, but it absolutely wrecked my battery life when I didn't kill the Waze app the other day after arriving at my destination. I wasn't moving, but my battery went from ~90% to ~40% in the span of a movie: in my pocket, with the display off.

I care very slightly about the privacy implications (I'm already letting them track me sometimes so I can't be that concerned). What bothers me is that it continued to drain my battery to the point that my phone would have been dead before I got back to my car to head home.
If you could designate a building "car free", and have all local street parking be permit parking, AND don't hand out permits to people living in "car free" buildings, it seems like it would fix the problem. But I don't know how practical it is to do this.

It doesn't matter. Most of the time, especially with Tensorflow, you will have a static computation graph somewhere. Nothing (well, implementation-defined) prevent you compile that into CoreML / Caffe / Caffe2 or just Tensorflow lean version to get deployed. PyTorch is a bit different because it supports dynamic graph.

Maybe I should have put malware in quotes. I was generally referring more to the privacy invading, battery sucking, ad displaying, etc behaviors of the vast majority of applications. Which per wikipedia (and traditional usage of the term) makes them malware.

Apple/etc seem to be suck in the mindset of the various antivirus products before the advent of adaware/etc. So the products aren't strictly virus/trojans/worms/etc but they definitely fit the definition of malware and the end results are potentially just as bad. I would actually prefer any number of virus's over the some of the shenanigans the facebook app has been accused of.
SRP doesn't solve the problem you think it does. SRP (and PAKEs in general) still requires the server to store a verifier. Those verifiers can be cracked just like password hashes; in fact, they're often easier to crack.
suggestions are awesome - instant results, less so. overall, a good choice.
What's nice about this is the directness of it.

As far as I understand, with services like AWS ECS you need to provision the infrastructure first and pay for its uptime, whereas this allows more ephemeral containers to be run with minimal setup, and you only pay for the compute time used

> Racism is more than just calling out race in a specific dynamic

This is a very hotly contested point (one on which there is no clear consensus on the Left and utter rejection ofnthe idea on the Right.)

The “power structure” concept of racism was, historically, a deliberate invention to invalidate the specific idea that black people (the racial group of interest in the context in which the concept was developed) could be racist; it's deeply problematic because the mere adoption of it as a popular viewpoint alters the power structure, creates (or enhances an existing) context in which people in groups perceived to be disadvantaged in a broader context are privileges for that reason, and thus ends up negating its own basic purpose and making itself irrelevant.

It's much more useful to view the specific power dynamics applicable to a particular case as a factor in the significance and impact of racism than to take more generalized power dynamics as an factor in deciding whether there is racism.
