Technologies related to .NET Core always surrounded by the royal misconception about versioning and communicating those releases to the end customers.

2.0.0? I'm sure a lot of people started to check whether Visual Studio 2017 has a corresponding tooling aka .NET Core 2.0. As always, not yet.

Why not just make a cumulative announcement along the lines "Everything-.NET Core-2.0 is out and ready"?
Advocates of the existing system say that they provide a) the good name of their journal which stems from b) the selection that they're doing, i.e. prestigious papers pride themselves with only publishing the best works of their field.

EDIT: If I had to build a publishing system for research papers, I'd probably have something like Arxiv as a basis, i.e. a site with huge storage capacity where everyone can upload papers given that some basic quality criteria are met (formatting etc.). Then, the role of journals would be performed by reviewers that curate a collection of interesting papers for their readers. It could be integrated right into the same site, similar to how reviewers work e.g. on Steam.

Thanks for your reply. We're working on that with high priority.
App Annie purchased Mobidia in 2015 which has an app called "My Data Manager" that is similar to Onavo. I think it is used in a similar way. https://techcrunch.com/2015/05/06/app-annie-acquires-mobile-...

Sure, but returning to the original point - by that token, why should YouTube have any obligation or even judicial ability to retain videos like this on "the back end?"

It is indeed YouTube's right to vaporize any bits at any time. But when they are the leading video platform on the entire web by a huge margin they need to at least adequately present the reality of their content guidelines to users in countries like Syria who are probably not focused on researching alternative video hosts while trying to document chemical weapons attacks.

I've been working with dotnet core the past couple months. It takes a lot of Googling to find useful answers still. The documentation is not particularly comprehensive and it is true that the docs are frequently images of "How to use visual studio to do this" which is never useful for vscode users. I'm actually starting to understand why StackOverflow is such a commonly used resource because of it (in python land I almost never need to defer to stack overflow).

That said, still enjoying the ecosystem, but docs-wise it's kind of a mess. I was thinking I'd start compiling a few cheat sheets for things like EF...
This page for example is just totally busted:

I mainly used LaTeX when going through university, but after that my use is so casual that Word is more than good enough (think short letters and the like to parents or boardmembers). For documentation and notes Markdown works very well, and certainly much simpler. At work I use a mix of Word because that's what the other non tech people use, and Markdown for documentation.

This is very good documentation. In my technical writing activities I have learned that there are two kinds of bad documentation: Math textbooks ("Prove X. Lemma: ..." [Why are we proving this anyway?]) and cooking recipes ("Do a, b, c, the end" [What if I need to cook something else?]) - too little practice or too little theoretical foundation. Sometimes both are present but too disjoint, or the theory is badly structured.
This one does a great job at introducing the foundations, in the right order, and immediately showing what they mean to you in practice.

As did Communism, and we fought a Cold War over that.

A "white nationalist" (apparently) ran someone over with his car, while a communist is currently threatening to nuke the United States. Nuking a country has to be worse than running over a single person, right? If not, why not?

Maybe next we can shut down all communist web sites.

After the communists, then we can move on to socialists of any kind. Then people who don't salute the flag. Then atheists. Then people who don't go to church on Sunday. Then...

Easy: people like Damore exist. You exist. With people like you in the field, it's clear that there's a segment of the population who is OK to apply gender bias.

Concrete numbers? Just look at the current 80%/20% division. Considering people like Damore exist, it's fair to assume that at least a >0% skew exists because of gender bias. But don't take it from me, just go ask any woman o(even the ones that Damore mentions in his memo.)

Next question?

(BTW, what a ridiculous argument you are trying to make. Even Damore, who you take as an eminent authority in the subject, admits there's gender bias in the industry.)

Read "Pioneering Portfolio Management" by David Swenson, the guy who runs the Yale endowment. Fascinating book on investing; one of his "super powers" as an investor is the fact that the Yale Endowment is immortal, and can invest on 100 year timelines. The rest of us who need to retire can't afford to think like that.

But if you can afford to think like that, new opportunities open up that no one else can compete with you on.

And that time perspective makes issues like the dot-com crash or the 2009 financial crisis look laughably irrelevant.

This is incorrect, kind of. There are essentially 3 ways to sell on Amazon. 1. Amazon can buy your product wholesale and they sell it. The manufacturer still has a lot of control on pricing and listing and etc. But Amazon has more control. In this case Amazon uses the UPC (or equivalent) to come up with the ASIN. In this case any 3rd party seller can list the same item with the UPC and it will show up on the same listing. They can even sell it via FBA where it is labeled as prime and stocked in Amazon's warehouses and if priced cheaper then will often get the buy box. So you could have 1000 positive reviews for your product and then all of a sudden a counterfeiter ships Amazon a bunch of what they say is the exact same product with the same UPC and it gets listed on the same listing. They can even make these stand out more by making variations on the product that then show up (like a 2-pack) that maybe you never sold.

Secondly there is Fulfilled By Amazon (FBA) this is when you sell the products and Amazon takes a commission and all the fulfillment fees to store and ship the product for you. In this case the seller has MUCH MUCH more control over every aspect of the listing. They can choose to have the ASIN generated by the UPC which can result in the same problem as above OR they can choose to have the ASIN generated by a number and barcode that is unique to the particular seller. This is called a FNSKU. Even if you know the FNSKU number which would be on a barcode on the product, ONLY the particular seller can create /ship product to Amazon using it. So Only the seller can variate listing or sell the product.

And thirdly you can do seller fulfillment which works list the last option in terms of listing, just with your own warehousing and fulfillment.

Also, we should perhaps have the concept of "negative citations". For example, when the text contains "In this paper we show that the approach of [..] is incorrect."

I disagree. HTTP is a widely known standard with a ready to use client/server implementation in basically any platform. Leveraging that semantically in API seems to improve productivity all around. Are there any major trade offs?

The alternative is making standards for how to format the payload and try to get everyone on board while also trying to manage another half a dozen or more legacy implementations of non-standards. Or don't make standards and live with the fact that every API will do its own thing and you have to handle everything differently each time you have to talk to anyone.

As a practical example, I would really prefer not to have to parse a XML response to get a status code in my js frontend, nor would I'd like to examine it via string/regex matching.

Attribution is tricky at the best of times and worse when you're dealing with many, small campaigns rather than a few discrete large campaigns.

Let's say you make surfboards that are primarily bought offline at surf shops. You run a campaign with 100 instagram influencers in the San Diego area and you see a 15% greater uplift in sales compared to nationwide. Which influencers contributed meaningfully and which ones were fake accounts where you wasted your money? How much of that 15% uplift is because of the influencer campaign vs a longer summer in San Diego this year vs some totally organic consumer spreading it via WOM?

Even if you want to design an experiment, summer's already over and you'll need to wait until next summer to test out your hypothesis. It's not hard to see how a scammer could cobble together a dozen or so of these different advertisers and make a substantial sum out of fraud consistently without ever getting caught.

Nice guy, but he wasn't going to learn Git to humor me. PDF annotations were a good enough middle ground. In the end I was glad that there was a barrier between his edits and my source -- like most academics, he tossed off his edits in a blazing hurry, and I was able to avoid some distracting changes in voice because I was typing them in myself.
most people really don't know what their view is classified as when taking surveys. they latch onto one interest and base their declared "liberal or conservative" from just that.
My take on SOAP's approach is that it isn't overloading HTTP status messages, it's attempting to impose SOAP's message structure on things that are legitimately HTTP 5xx responses, so that the soap client can handle some of those failure modes and the programmer doesn't have to engineer another protocol for dealing with transport errors or parse a different message format.

Notably, SOAP is not just doing REST it is attempting to offer an abstraction for dealing with transport issues.

Most people designing a REST or rpc style API do not attempt this breadth in their API design, instead they just overload HTTP response codes (from the HTTP and webDAV specs) to handle application-specific stuff, which ends up resulting in the codes being effectively meaningless across applications.

SOAP, on the other hand, is meant to be used in the same way across applications. So if your app uses SOAP to consume multiple SOAP APIs, and you engineer failure handling for the HTTP 500 associated with some kind of SOAP fault, chances are you can reuse this logic with all of the SOAP APIs.

On the contrary, many REST APIs that overload HTTP statuses do it in some arbitrary way defined by the team working on the API, so the consumer can't make generalizations about the meaning of the error codes in the common cases where one might determine (for example) a retry to be necessary.

Poorly handled by Amazon because the _absence_ of an email (there is no other way to tell, for example from the order page on the amazon web site) signifies that the glasses are safe. So if the email get spam filtered or otherwise doesn't reach the appropriate person, they have no idea that the product isn't safe. The order page should say "not safe" or "safe" so people can check themselves.

My understanding is that the human eye has pain receptors that respond to wavelengths in the visible spectrum. As the moon occludes the sun, the level of visible light drops below the level where prolonged viewing causes pain.

But visible light is not the only frequency. Sunlight also contains UV and IR wavelengths. The human eye does not have pain receptors that respond to these frequencies.

The end result is that during an eclipse it becomes more likely that a person will fries their eyes due to the presence of UV and IR wavelengths.
