I don't think it's related to too many chef's in the kitchen. More a reference to chefs having a spotless kitchen at their day job, but a messy kitchen at home. Likewise for plumbers.
My past iPhones have gone quite a bit longer than 2 years with 24hr+ battery life. But that's probably because they start out with ~72hr battery life (under my use patterns, which are ~20min web browsing, average of a couple pictures or videos a day, nearly zero talk, ~30-40/day whatsapp or text messages, no Facebook or other social media, no gaming. Using navigation or other battery-hungry things cuts into that, of course.)
Automated Testing with REST Example Part 3
If you're interested in Clojure, I _highly_ recommend /r/Clojure on Reddit. It's very active; several library devs, book authors, and core maintainers frequently post and comment. There's a weekly thread dedicated to new Clojure users ([Latest thread here][1]). The Clojure Slack[6] is even more active if you have a burning question.

If you would like to dip your toes in the water, 4Clojure[2] is an online interactive Clojure Kata. There's also a (nearly) full REPL environment at Try Clojure[3] or repl.it[4]. The Clojure Cheatsheet[5] makes it easy to browse and discover the Clojure standard library, and IMHO is _so_ well organized!

But the biggest part of Lisp is the interactive development. You really have to see it, and I love showing the [Bruce's Figwheel project presentation][7] because it's a very visual demonstration of what hot-reloading code and interactive development can bring. It also helps that he's doing Clojurescript in a live browser for web development.

Yes it might cost as much as ONE real mars mission. The value comes from being able to analyze and fix all of the problems that occur in the experiment here on earth in real time. On mars many fixes will require a costly second trip or at a minimum a non-trivial time delay in even getting additional expert information to the site.

You want to send the best version possible to mars and not do your survival learning there. Some will of course be unavoidable but much can still be learned here on earth.
Yes there are many problems that in general are impossible or intractable for computers, yet humans solve instances of these problems with ease. In fact, it seems most problems of interest to us fall in this category of generally impossible or intractable. So, is the mind just by chance stumbling on the computationally tractable instances of these generally intractable problems, or is the mind doing something special that computers inherently cannot do? I've not seen this question addressed anywhere. Instead people assume materialism and conclude the mind is a computer, which merely begs the question. There are many more uncomputable than computable functions, so there is no a priori reason to assume the mind is a computation.

> I thought, and tried to explain to her, that a 3 year old in daycare probably has been exposed to peanuts already

Prior to the recent AAP recommendation (and possibly still after it) many daycares had nut-free policies as a selling point.

> This idea of introducing the food in an ED waiting room is probably something spread on mommy forums such as BabyCenter.

Introducing an allergen with ready access to medical care may be an overreaction, but is hardly problematic.

It's the delay in introduction which is problematic, and which research suggest drove the big upswing in incidence of peanut and some other allergies.
Survey methodology and all that, but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if most of the affected population didn't know.

WebRTC just uses hole punching, and its implementation (ICE+STUN+TURN) is as over-engineered as you would expect from a modern protocol stack.

I started w/ word of mouth and networking through people I already knew. I also started with a lower rate. I raised my rates anytime I had to much work to do. I discovered this technique from another friend.

I was complaining one day about having WAY to many clients. He said and I'll never forget it, "if you have to much work to do, you're not charging enough."

I started 2.5 years ago at $70/hr and am now at $135/hr after several rounds of raising rates. Sometimes I would lose a client when raising my rates, but that was ok and really was the goal. They were usually the most painful to deal w/ anyway. My best clients usually never even balked at it. Just said ok and kept on paying.

I then got to the point where I needed to give myself a brand and bring on another developer because I started taking on very large green field projects(this was something my lawyer and accountants suggested for insurance/legal/protection reasons).

At that point I got more advanced and started doing some content marketing, facebook ads, and google ads to keep the pipeline running. The hardest part was keeping clients lined up in the beginning. Because I would get a client, work the client and during that time stop looking for new clients. Which lead to a lot of down cycles with no work to be done while I looked for the next client. This is still an ongoing thing we're working on at this time to improve our client acquisition techniques.

I also use a pretty unique billing structure that my clients seem to really love. You can read all about how and why we chose to do it this way here https://blog.grillwork.io/why-we-no-longer-use-fixed-price-c...

My partner and I now do about 20-30hrs a week for clients pretty steady and spend the rest of the time working on projects we own fully that we hope can generate recurring revenue. It has been a really fantastic journey that I hope never ends.

Every day get really inspired by the stories on indiehackers.com and just find this way of work extremely fascinating. Very rewarding both personally and financially so far and I don't think I'll ever stop doing what I'm doing if I have anything to say about it.
While the rising cost of housing is an easy target, why not put the pressure on the companies that are driving the influx of workers and out of control cost of living?

If tech companies are drawing people into cities and forcing out those who keep the city itself operating, why not have them subsidize and improve public transportation? Lower income housing? Encourage more remote work or move their headquarters out of the city centers? It seems crazy to me that people get driven out of their homes by real estate developers who re-develop due to tech-wages.

This example is a bit on the fringe, but it does illustrate the daily struggle of many normal people. 2+ hour commute is insane. And before someone comes in with the "why doesn't she get a new job closer to home?", you know it's not that easy - not to mention unfair to suggest that someone should change their entire life because their profession isn't flavor of the month.
Interesting, as a manager, I try very hard to do as much of the grunt work as possible and the devs do more feature coding. Out of curiosity, where do you rank data modeling?

I tend to want to either design or review all data design, either relational or other, partly because of my background in data engineering and partly because I have business awareness that the devs don't have. It's just not possible to convey every nuance of a constantly evolving business to each dev on the team without it being distracting.

How would you like your manager to handle being involved in data modeling? Develop a spec and then review? pair modeling?
To play devil's advocate - there are a lot of people who would argue that the view: "Why would you do something with so many known and unknown dangers, when you could focus your energies on making a VR simulation of it instead?" also very sad.
The point of cryptocurrencies is they are robust in the face of malicious action by any individual party. If the United States sank into the Atlantic Ocean, Filecoin would still work exactly as designed everywhere else. If it were built around a USD bank account, a simple change in the terms of service for the bank could shut the service down completely.

Who is the account holder? The Filecoin inventors? What happens if someone blackmails them for the account password? What happens if they die?

To build Filecoin on USD you'd have to put all your trust in the Filecoin corporation.

The point of cryptocurrencies is you don't have to put your trust in any single entity.
I'd be more impressed with Mars pessimists if they'd admit that it's just not really the kind of thing that interests them rather than insisting that it's going to be a terrible nightmare for anyone.

The GP said the novelty will wear off in one hour, tops. Sorry, to some people, that's a ridiculous statement. Pointing out that it would probably last longer than that is not insisting that it's going to be one big breathless adventure.

People have lived in solitude and isolation before. People have lived on the space station for extended periods of time. There are people that don't really care to come home to their comfortable home and family every night. I'm pretty sure there are some people who would not be miserable living on Mars.

Decries "unsupported claims" then goes on the make a whole bunch of unsupported claims.

Not very compelling, which is too bad because I was hoping to read something a lot more succinct.
I don't think requiring a warrant before providing the evidence is the same thing as impeding an investigation. You may as well claim that demanding a warrant before allowing police into your house is "destruction of evidence".
Preemptive scheduling is great, but there are some times when it is bad. For example, I was having problems in my Elixir code for live streaming that it was taking too many reductions to fully deserialize and process the incoming message (nothing major was in this code path, just a parsing the TCP packet and unwrapping the different layers). This ended up causing the process to get (what seems to be) overbalanced and I ended up at having delays transferring 5+mbps video through it.

I broke the deserialization up into 3 separate processes (1 for handling the I/O, 1 for packet deserialization, 1 for message deserialization) and while this fixed all the issues (presumably because it can balance the processes more effectively since no single process went over the reduction limit) it turned the effectively synchronous parsing process into a split async process and caused a lot of extra complexity around that.

I'm sure there's more to what caused the issue than just reduction limits but it also made me wary about the magic happening under the hood.
Yes, but IPv6 helps a ton. Hole punching with IPv6 is almost 100% successful as long as your firewall allows it (and most do unless you are whitelist-only). IPv6 kills symmetric NAT and over-provisioned NAT.
> And physical keyboards. Something for SSH'ing with.

Biggest thing I want is no aux port but __two__ (or more) usb-c ports instead. That way you can do stuff like plug in a keyboard/monitor or other standalone usb devices. I don't want to be forced to use weird all in one hubs for specific use cases. I want the UNIX philosophy with my hardware.
We definitely use databases such as Postgres, MySQL, Riak, etc. It is just that when it comes to ephemeral data, the tools that ship with the Elixir and OTP may be enough. See how Phoenix does the whole pubsub and presence without Redis or similar.
Great article.

If anyone who agrees with James Damore's point is motivated to see the reason these arguments are summarily dismissed by many, I recommend reading "the mismeasure of man", by Stephen Jay Gould.

> There is strong demand for anonymity all over the world.

Is there? From whom? Facebook is still growing rapidly and now claims more than 2B users. It seems that not even privacy is in high demand, much less anonymity.
That's not P2P hole punching. That's just a UDP to a cloud server. Stateful firewalls remember UDP sessions for a period of time.

UDP hole punching is when both parties are behind NAT and it's used almost exclusively for P2P: torrents, VoIP phones, video chat, multiplayer games, ZeroTier, WebRTC, IPFS, etc.

It's called X Window, man. Singular, not plural.
I don't have a running one on me, but here is an actual screen snapshot from 1990 or so, showing what happens when you resize XCalc again and again, as the layout rounding errors build up in the bounding boxes of the X Toolkit widgets used for the buttons.

And Motif is based on that very same code.

http://www.art.net/studios/hackers/hopkins/Don/unix-haters/x...

At one point I got frustrated and hacked the window manager (probably piewm) so I could pass it a command line parameter telling it the window ID on which to run instead of the root framebuffer, and then I ran it on the XCalc window, so I got window frames around all the buttons and could pop up menus on them, move them back to where they belonged, resize them, iconify them, etc.

Yay ICCCM! How powerful! It was totally worth ICCM being that complicated and pushing all that complexity into every other toolkit and application, just in order to make that trick possible just once.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. Personally I'd rather use twm. I like the flat-looking widgets better.
People are sick and tired of anti-white (pro-nonwhite) de jure policies and replacement immigration. They feel this country is their rightful homeland and are angry that they had no vote in being replaced. These reactions could have been predicted and were. I guess you can call that "racist" and "white supremacist" but the name-calling just eggs them on and is "not an argument." Instead, let's explain why the white era that started in Athens is now over and that's just natural progress. And if they are genocided in the process well that would be sad. Or I guess we could just dox them.
what about clojure?
Yes Elixir handles concurrency better than Ruby. In terms of raw performance it's nowhere near Go, Java, C++ though. Rails/Django are fast enough for almost all apps, if you need the additional performance improvements of a faster language you'd probably end up with one of those 3. Wonder how much need there is for a language that takes the middle ground in terms of performance. Looks very sexy though, really want to build something with it :)
A bit less than ten years ago, I had my home built and purchased nothing but high-end industrial appliances. I admit, this was costly and I made similar viewpoint purchases for the rest of the house.

So far, I've not had to have anything repaired - at all. I haven't even had to change an appliance lightbulb. I just keep the consumables replaced on schedule.

Initially, it was quite expensive. I do think it may be cheaper on the long run.

By that logic, you are never allowed to notice the unbalanced application of a rule or principle.

Slightly off-topic, most "logical fallacies" actually have very important heuristic uses. Just to get the ball rolling, "ad hominem" becomes extremely useful in a world in which we have limited access to full information, and have to constantly evaluate the reliability of outside parties.
Haha! Thank you sir for the laugh!

Indeed, X liberated us from expecting workstations to only be clients and servers to be some big iron where I go to get service. What X began, lightbulbs (with embedded servers) are now completing.
That's actually, according to something I read a while back (sorry, don't remember the source), not just an extra anecdote, it's the observed fact which motivated the study that led to the AAP changing it's recommendation.
I started by talking to my friends and networking with people who needed developers, using online sites to find people hiring or seeking developers I could pitch on my services(this works amazingly well), and doing content marketing to get some SEO and exposure for myself and services. I started with a rate that was a little more than my salary when I left to cover things like savings, retirements, insurance, taxes etc that my job paid and raised my rates any time I had to much work to do. See my other response in the thread for more details.
The algorithm, yes, but not the process of building the algorithm:

> Goodman argues the foundation should disclose more information about its dataset and how it was analyzed to design PSA, as well as the results of any validation tests performed to tune the risk scores it assigns people.

We don't know. If the bones are "adapting" to a lower gravity, and stop getting weaker at some point, then it may be OK. If the bones are losing strength all the time, then it may not be.

And, of course, bones are not monolithic atomic objects but complex living things. Different parts of them may be described by either of those two cases, or others.

> Colonization has usually moved the larger human society forward a little, with new forms of governance, new materials, new technologies or techniques for daily life.

I would really like to see the historical data that bears out this broad claim. I'd like to see a more or less representative sample of "colonization" events that "moved society forward," for example. Also, I'd like to see an accounting of the counterfactuals regarding progress that wouldn't have happened. To cite one example, the "new [if that can be alleged] form of governance" that resulted (if that much can be alleged) in the U.S. from the colonization of the New World took a quarter of a millennium. How much longer for the cotton gin?

Ironically, it's been 50 years since we landed on the Moon, and we can't even rid ourselves of the Space Race / World Of Tomorrow propaganda that drives the public's impression of space exploration. I think we need to look elsewhere than colonization to explain progress.

(Where was colonialism in the discovery of integral calculus? In chaos theory? In...? I'll stop.)
