That's interesting, I have the opposite experience.

I'm still wearing my first gen (i.e., Series 0) Apple Watch from the day of release until now. It tracks my daily runs, gives me a quick (and private) glance at notifications, tells the time+weather, and I use the heart rate monitor from time-to-time.

I shower, swim, go to the beach with the watch on. I'm surprised it has lasted this long. Especially considering it's not really "waterproof" but I treat it like it is.

I use a bunch of cheap wristbands from eBay as well as the Apple one that came with it.

The only thing that has started going wrong is the battery is starting to lose charge a bit earlier than normal (around 10pm at night some days). I'd be happy having the battery fixed and using this watch for another year or more.
Well the watch only works with an iPhone right now...

GPG-signing doesn't prove maliciousness, it just proves authenticity; that it was written by a particular person. The web-of-trust is used to enforce social reputation - if a user is malicious, their key is revoked. If a user signs up poor-quality other users, their key is revoked. Blacklists go stale and are also hard to get off if you've landed on one in error. Webs-of-trust are more work, but more robust.

In case you assumed that corporate responsibility is actually taken to heart by those making corporate strategic decisions, let this show you that it is not. Corporate responsibility moves are little more than good PR, a product selling point, and a way to avoid fines in some jurisdictions. Money matters more than morals. These corporations want access to the Chinese market. To gain access (and profit from) to the Chinese market, you must play ball with the state.
I'm saying regardless of what my or someone elses moral positions are, businesses are not the right body to carry them out.

Apple is a business, not a governmental or civic institution. And to answer your question, of course Apple could do things that I consider morally abhorrent (even if they happen to be legal), but it is the public's and the respective governments job to set out the laws, it's not the job of Apple's CEO.
Great point. I think that Maven Central is great about checking incoming packages. But most maven clients are really bad.

The default in maven client is usually to download via http. The default is usually to _not_ check the hash. There is not a great way to pin a library to a repository which, when coupled with the ease of third-party repositories slipping into your project, means that you can download things like your crypto oauth library from some random server on the web.

Many of these issues can be mitigated by running your own repository that mirrors what you need. Most big corporate shops do this. I think that approach works for any package management system. I guess open source devs and hobbiests are screwed?
The Series 1 is the original Apple Watch but with the processor from the Series 2. It's a different device because of that, and lots of us call the original a Series 0. However, go on Gumtree and you'll see plenty of peppy claiming they're selling a Series 1 when it's actually an Original Apple Watch.

To make matters worse, the SoC in the original Apple Watch is called the S1, and the chip in the Series 1 and Series 2 Apple Watches is called the S2, making the numbering more confusing and preventing us from shortening anything to S1/S2.

Thanks Apple!

Not really much they can do other than take it down and maybe 'protect' some popular packages from typo squatting by reserving some common misspellings. They're a public repository where users upload arbitrary code. The trust relationship really isn't there.

You trust NPM to be secure and serve exactly the code that the author published unmodified.

You trust the author to not act maliciously. Nothing you can really do if a user voluntaitally installs leet-virus.

fyi AWS China is different from aws worldwide. It has its own portal https://www.amazonaws.cn, different set of services, policies, etc.

Many cool fancy new features on aws worldwide is not available on aws china. Some of the differences even breaks third party libraries. e.g. some version of boto.

I did this too - ebay for 20$. I love it. My only issue is that it's too big for me, but I assume the official Apple band would be too, and that my only choice is to buy the 38mm watch.
It's been a game changer for me as a life-management aid. The calendaring and task list functions are solid. Pulling your phone out of your pocket (especially a big 6s+) is actually a big barrier to using Siri to jot down a note or set a reminder. I never used to use Siri, but with the watch I use it all the time. I just wish it could do more without telling you to pull out your iPhone.
Not true at all.

Personal experience: I got hooked on hitting my activity goals with my Apple Watch and am now on day 292 of my streak. I've lost 20 pounds and am running a 5k at a near 7min/mile pace, something I haven't done in over 15 years.

Sure: the watch didn't move my legs for me, but it sure as hell manipulated me into getting off my ass :)
Lately, I think the attention is getting into Elon's head.. It's so unsettling because Elon was our lord and savior and now as if corrupted by his newly found fully grown hair, he has it seems given in to the media attention.

I'd like to emphasize what you said---that's not an inherently bad thing, but as most powerful features of languages, it can be abused. A lot of languages have Turing-complete type systems, and I have yet to see a serious abuse of this in production code. For example, C++ has some really cool libraries that do a lot of stuff at the type-level, and this has been acknowledged and even made more explicit and usable, with the introduction of constexpr, which basically lets you run plain old imperative code at compile-time.
What are they supposed to do? Either they comply or they leave the Chinese market. It's that simple. I hope people don't fault these companies for playing ball with a communist government.

GovCloud is isolated an a very similar manner, though still operated by AWS.

One of the big things stopping me switching to Android is that the devices - both the phones and watches - are just too big for me. I've worn my friend's Gear S3 - it's laughably gigantic on me, being wider than my wrist, and actually doing the band up is out of the question.

I imagine it has to do with the fact that most software applications won't kill all their users if they crash.

Additionally the fields of mechanical engineering and architecture have been around far longer than software engineering, hundreds and thousands of year respectively compared to what 70?
I understand what you're saying. However, I don't see how that's much different from glancing at any number of clocks: for instance at the office when I glance at the time in the corner of my computer screen, when I'm in a meeting room and glance at the clock on the wall, etc. People notice that motion all the time.

I notice when people do this to me as well. Either way you'd need to glance at your watch, which means your eyes move somewhere else and you lose eye contact with whoever you're with/speaking to.

Uber's head of HR is new since the events Susan Fowler wrote about (but before she posted it).
Here's some code you can compile, it shows the problem:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>

int main() {
printf("size_t bytes: %u\n", sizeof(size_t));

size_t high = SIZE_MAX;
size_t low = high-1;
size_t mid_correct = low+(high-low)/2;
size_t mid_incorrect = (low+high)/2;

printf("low: %.ju\n", low);
printf("high: %.ju\n", high);
printf("low+high: %.ju\n", low+high);
printf("(low+high)/2 -- incorrect: %.ju\n", mid_incorrect);
printf("low+(high-low)/2 -- correct: %.ju\n", mid_correct);
}

On my 64-bit machine, I get:

size_t bytes: 8
low: 18446744073709551614
high: 18446744073709551615
low+high: 18446744073709551613

If they did everything right, then surely their prototype would have cost less than a billion dollars?
Think of it like sports. Programming is fun. But professional programming?

It's very often competitive. You have to remain at peak (mental) fitness. You'll spend a lot of nights and family gatherings just looking at tech stuff to keep up to date.

You become adored, respected, have a lot of money and power. But with that comes unrealistic expectations. People expect you to win and keep winning. You end up exhausted by the middle of the day and people will still expect you to keep going.

You start taking performance enhancers to deal with the pressure. First, it starts with Jolt and Red Bull. Then you experiment with nootropics, going for any edge. Then you start hacking your own habits and routines.

You end up on death marches. Heck if you're a startup, all of them will feel like a death march. You can quit and have your team lose, or march together with them with almost no chance of success.

If this appeals to you, then you might just enjoy a career as a developer. It's not about the highs, but enjoying the lows as well. There are less stressful versions of the job, but then it pays a lot less than management consulting.

Lumiata | Onsite | San Mateo | Systems Administrator

We're a medical technology company using machine learning and massive amounts of patient data to improve how the healthcare system works. Our tools process millions of patient records to predict what kinds of medical risk and problems will befall a patient and other medically relevant parameters. Join us to learn about the many intricacies of medical data, how to handle very large volumes of patient records, and how to build pipelines to operationalize cutting-edge machine learning models.

Data Engineer: We work mostly in Python, Scala with some Java here and there. Main technologies include Spark, TensorFlow and Hadoop among others. We're looking to build more robust pipelines to understanding transform raw, often human-entered data into standards-compliant forms, and to deploy a wide variety of machine learning/AI models in a scalable, traceable manner.

Systems Administrator: We handle very private data, so security and compliance with health industry standards is a must. Come learn how to meet the stringent requirements to be a responsible caretaker for sensitive health data. We have in-house clusters some Cloudera based and some VMware based, running a variety of "big-data" tools. We're looking to streamline our infrastructure while building it out or adding off-site capabilities, and to implement strong disaster recovery and security protocols.

Odds and ends: mostly onsite, free lunch, work from home Wednesdays, ~20 employees, growing in a field that really affects peoples lives.

Excellent point.

That is terrible. I can't really imagine it being worse than here. Landlords are asking tenants to front 3-6 months in "security deposit" now, and tenants have to go to court to get it back when they leave. I'm so sorry it is worse in London. Well, at least you guys have clean clothes and free healthcare! I do think about moving to London after watching a whole season of Endeavour or Sherlock. That wallpaper in Sherlock is the bomb.
I guess I'm not so concerned about doing it in c, but rather getting stuck in certain places (I'm only thinking of memory management, but I suppose there are others) that higher level languages avoid completely. Also, as a learner, I am afraid I would be writing idiosyncratic weirdness instead of idomatic, readable code.

I would want the codebase to be accessible to a wide audience.

CI-friendly UI testing automation tools: a brief review
I don't have any watches with lights (mine are all mechanical; a few have glow in the dark features), so that's not something I ever did in the past.

How is it different? I don't know how to describe it really. But as someone who has worn a watch all my adult life, and has now been wearing the Apple Watch for a year (not every day, but fairly frequently; other days I wear different watches), it still feels totally different in a very annoying way. Did you wear a watch before you got the Apple Watch? I wonder if it's really just a difference of what you're used to. I can't articulate it well, but for me it's very different. The question of "how is it different" is like asking "why don't you like the color brown?" I dunno, I just don't.
That is what I was curious about. That is a country four times the size of America. It would be interesting to see how the conversation went in Apples and Amazons board room though.

When has that ever been in doubt with regard to China? To do any major business in China you have to partner with a local company --which typically have ties to the CCP.

This is nothing new. Is there a difference btwn opening factories in China and legally outsourcing work to local cos which may or may not comply with even local labor and environmental laws and bowing to their local mores when it comes to softer areas like western ideas about civil liberties? That in no way means I agree with their view --I'm just asking are the two not different sides of the same coin and we (the "west") pretty much fully accepted the one side a long time ago.

You could also wrap a reference to a plain old struct and operate on it using a class. That's often how I write C++ when I need to be explicit about how the data is structured. Not everything in C++ requires an OO approach.

OP was specifically recommending operator overloading on a plain old struct, which can be done without declaring a class. Indeed, operator overloads can be declared as global functions in C++. The this pointer doesn't enter in to it at all in that case.

It's just A Word Meaning Different Things Thing; hustle can mean 'hurry' or something similar to 'sprint,' but it can also mean a side gig that gets you a bit of extra income. The typical connotation is with under-the-table stuff and contraband-y stuff in prisons, though, so you might not expect to hear someone talk about their 'new hustle delivering newspapers.'
Hmm anyone else thinking of Pied Piper?
Maybe there's a middleground? You've still got to pick your battles and understand the scope of them. It's also entirely reasonable for a company to not to choose to follow a particular fight because it's too expensive or would have to much of an impact on the strategy of the company.

If a company decides to not fund healthcare for everyone in the US, even if that aligned with their values and CSR, there's no need to take a cynical look at that.
Other way around. Generics make apps bigger, not smaller, because the code gets duplicated as it is specialized for different types.
Couldn't disagree more. Not saying it's for everyone, but it's been an actual game changer in my life workflow.

I no longer need to have my phone with me at all times. I can just walk into a space, put my phone down, and only engage with it when I want to. The watch lets me know about anything I actually NEED to know RIGHT NOW (turns out, it's not that much). It's perfectly un-intrusive.
The one thing most people dont realize about why the iPod was popular was because it was actually the fastest device to transfer music to. At the time, music devices were using serial connections if you can believe that, and FireWire was the fastest thing on the market, only available with iPods. This, combined with having the most space (10gb vs 256 mb), combined with windows support on the third version, made the iPod take off.
Yea, turns out programmers are pretty good at writing code that halts in Turing complete languages.
