I created an account extra for this, cause this is super personal.

So, it all started last year. My mother who has been suffering from lung cancer for three years was doing pretty well - given the condition she has to deal with.

Then, all of the sudden, my brother has died in an accident. My mom took that with the pain I guess only a mother can feel, but to my surprise she was braver than I thought.

I, however, pushed all the pain away and started to work as hell. Within weeks I took new responsibilities at work place, travelled a lot and to make things even worse, fell in love with a co-worker of mine. This ruined my years lasting relationship, but at that moment, I thought, it was worth it.

Turned out, it was not. My new relationship became a nightmare. Passive aggression all over, paired with depression, illegit accusations and stark disputes all over. Of course, all of this happened only when we were alone.

I have always been a very "stable" person, but at this time, I began asking myself what am I doing here. My mother is about to die, my brother had passed away, I left my girlfriend, who was my partner and my best friend for years for a girl who is so full of negativity. And the few moments I have for myself, I am doing hard work.

It was too much for me. I collapsed and could not do anything. Thanks to a good friend of mine, who brought me to the hospital. I went to a private clinic specialised on trauma and depression in a very nice area.

I had sports, psychological sessions, creativity and relaxation all over the day for a while.

I came back stronger than ever before. For me, key was to really enjoy every single moment. "Love it, leave it or change it", has become my slogan more than ever. Contrary to my situation before, I just applied it also to the very small parts of life. And, my focus changed from "leave it" to "change it". I am thankful for what I have, even if this is something I currently struggle with. But when I am really thankful from the deepest of my heart, I find the strength to change it. I started giving a fuck what people I don't care about think about me and instead started to reveal true feelings to the people I really want to have in my life.
I learnt to say "no". I have never been overloaded with work from mean co-workers or managers who just piled their shit on my table. It was more I actively searched for work that somehow sounded "interesting" or a meaningful CV bullet point. I have been the mean manager of myself. I stopped that. Saying no to a thing that just sounds "pretty cool", but is actually not meaningful in my life, is the best lesson I ever got taught.

And, best of all: I quitted my job and just agreed to to stuff for the company as contractor until they find another person to work on it. I joined the company of a good friend of mine, which is outside the tech world, doing half of the hours I used to do and get the same amount of money. And the best thing, I can now learn and play with technology with no pressure which makes me more productive. And with that knowledge I feel I can help my friend surviving with his non-tech company in the storm of digitalization.
I would argue that the US is in the brink of such a revolution. The American civil war happened because the Republican Party came out of nowhere and decided to free the slaves against the financial interests of the cotton industry. Currently, Trump came out of nowhere and has posed collective threat to a lot of industries including the military industry, tech and manufacturing industries that rely on outsourcing and foreign employees, remaining CleanTech industries and many others. There is every reason for these industries to support the opposition and that is exactly what they are doing.
Currency isn't wealth.

It's a means of transferring wealth.

Wealth isn't being created, it's being transferred.

(Absent some edge cases: the ability to conduct transactions that weren't previously possible, or to move funds out of a regime in which they are otherwise controlled -- though this almost always means violating legal currency controls and/or tax obligations.)
Poverty rate, wealth inequality, corruption, violent unrest. Admittedly, 2015 is the last year data seems available for, and pre-Chavez years get very little coverage online. Either way, you can't just point at the problems and say socialism is to blame.
Another chart worth viewing:

https://www.hntrends.com/2017/july.html?compare1=React&compa...

Hiring is a lagging indicator, but I see React hitting a plateau the way angular did. I see Vue is on the cusp of takeoff. Time will tell if it fails to launch, but I'm seeing more interest in Vue at meetups than React.

I think a lot of this has more to do with React's state management than licensing. One of the react developers said it best. Paraphrasing;

Everyone stopped saying React is fun after Redux.

They have to switch to onboard LOX when intake air gets too hot to cool sufficiently. That occurs at Mach 5.5. You need to achieve Mach 30 to reach orbit, so all this fancy engineering can only going to be used for a small fraction of the journey to space.

ML modules are great, but I'm not convinced that making them first-class (1ML) will be equally great. ML hits a sweet spot between automation (full type inference) and expressiveness that is only possible because the type language is first-order. This is IMO the point that most extensions on top of Hindley-Milner completely miss.

So, if anything, what I'd like to see is a dependently typed language whose type language is a first-order, computation-free (no non-constructor function application) subset of the value language.

It means that you can't loop where you actually need that loop and that makes reading and writing markup harder than it needs to be.

https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/lists-and-keys.html

Since JSX mixes logic and markup indistinguishably I'd say that's where the poor separation of concerns really is.
Have you considered the fact that most of our great-grandparents who defeated the nazis also hold positions on foreign policy and social issues that would likely cause them to fall under your definition of "nazi"?
Indeed. There is a lot of hype around vue.js, and maybe some is even warranted, but companies and devs are almost entirely split between Angular2 and React in my experience (been hiring, so reading lots of CVs and talking to devs).

Vue.js might be better than React in some ways, but is it enough of a paradigm shift to throw away a bunch of hard earned knowledge?
Better to quote you directly:

play-services-analytics is what I meant by "the Google SDK" in question; sorry if that was unclear!
I've had similar repayment terms on every signing bonus I've gotten.

Especially at large public companies, a huge chunk of your comp is either a bonus at year end or stock on a vesting schedule with a 1 year cliff. When switching companies, it's fairly common to get a sizeable signing bonus to compensate for the reduced cashflow for the first 12 months.

> They have to exist on your system somewhere.

Yes, but they shouldn’t be something I’d have to ever care about. Whenever I type "build", the build tool should automatically manage the dependencies and invoke the build process.

Ultimately "serverless" is always going to involve a computer of some sort somewhere, most likely a server ...

Functions as a Service is a much better description of the pattern... As an Ops person we often get a lot of requests for I need this (small) thing to happen when x... in the past we might have managed this with severs (probably called misc-{1..n}) running simple scripts as cron jobs...

I see "serverless" as a much better way to manage this sort of stuff ... and FaaS is especially good for this since anything that can go inside a container can be a function, so all the little bits of bash and perl and ruby and whatever script stuff just get chucked at this thing and just work...
I'm not sure what you're referring to, sorry.
I completely agree. Many of the psychological principles that drove the tulip craze are present in the ICO ecosystem: scarcity, promises of skyrocketing value, a steady flow of new entrants, and early investors using gains to further fuel growth. We've seen this movie before. The human brain hasn't changed much since those days, and I have a feeling social psychology textbooks will be adding ICOs right next to the tulipmania section.
I think everyone is hesitant to voice their concerns out of fear that they simply don't "get it." When you hear a panel of institutional investors say things like, "We're still figuring it out too, but we're going to make a ton of money!" that should make people gambling with their own money nervous. Early investors in multilevel marketing schemes and Ponzi schemes also make lots of money, but the whole thing ends up being a house of cards that stacks ever higher — often with increasingly financially-vulnerable investors entering the market as it gains a reputation of being a sure-fire way to make money fast.
That said, I do think that some of the ICOs have solid teams and a good idea behind them, and the coins provide them with sufficient funding and network validation to have a good chance of building a company of real value. Many more don't have those ingredients and could very well end up imploding. But then again, I could just not "get it."
You can't write a generic map function for lists. The lack of this abstraction alone should be damning. Even rudimentary functional programming is hard in Go.

From a lawyer: https://www.elcaminolegal.com/single-post/2016/10/04/Faceboo...
"True, the BSD License does not explicitly state that the licensee receives the right to use the licensed software under the licensor’s patents.* But I’ve never heard any lawyer postulate that that document does not grant a license to fully exploit the licensed software under all of the licensor’s intellectual property. Anyone who pushes that view is thinking too hard."

I disagree. Yes the web is also competitive but it's 100x easier for a simple reason:

The next site ia just ONE single click away. The next app is few clicks and a download away, even without any sign-up, an app install is a gigantic conversion breaker. This is not comparable with websites at all. Anyone who does new apps in 2017 must have a good plan.
Making Sense of Cryptoeconomics
As someone who has been screwed by "rapacity", all I can say is be very very careful being "nice".

As Pink Floyd said in a song "You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to, so that when they turn their backs on you. You'll get the chance to put the knife in."

As someone who lost out on a billion dollar business, be nice, but watch out for knives in the back. Often those knives are in the form of law firms.
You make a good point. Maybe their ways aren't superior - I didn't consider this. In that case, perhaps the issue isn't because we need to be more like other engineering disciplines but less like.

I'm feeling for answers. I'm not saying I know what we need. I am, like I think everyone else is, still in the observation stage looking for hypotheses.

I did find evidence based software engineering. This offered some interesting papers. I recommend this. There isn't much and it's far away from a cohesive theory but hopefully we can get there, as a field, soon.

If someone is further along, or has some ideas, I'd love to speak with them.
There is nothing wrong with being greedy. Greedy does not mean that you need to take or steal from others. It means you have an excessive drive for success. "Excessive" is usually defined by society at large, and society at large is unquestionably a cesspit of low consciousness, and self-centered thinking.

What I take from this article is the perception of being nice is important. But the reality between the lines is that nobody is in business to be nice (unless you're running a non profit). We're here to make money. If startup founders don't realize this someone else will, and they will eat their lunch.
Two key questions:

That's what a relational database does. Most of those things can be done in SQL. You can add indices after creating a table. You can join tables and create derived data.

Could mean almost anything but what generativist linguistics (or whatever the latest label for the Chomskyan school) does, which continues to promote the notion that language is essentially algebraic, that "grammaticality" is binary, and so forth. It's simply not the case that Chomsky is "okay" with approaches to the study of language which are not in accord wiht his own. He repeatedly dismisses whole subdisciplines as "uninteresting," but in context those complaints don't mean "uninteresting to me," they mean "worthless."

From reacts/PATENTS

> The license granted hereunder will terminate, automatically and without notice, if you [...] initiate [...] any Patent
Assertion

The key part is that if you don't have a license to use the patented technology (or more pertinently - that license is explicitly revoked), you can't legally use that technology, no matter what the BSD license might say: the patent grants supersedes the BSD license.

So, to respond directly to your answer - you lose the right to use React; Facebook can sue you for your use of React, since they own the patents to that technology.

So if you want to operate under the belief that Facebook has no patents to assert, then yes, you will consider yourself to be safe. The fact is that many lawyers, including the Apache Foundations lawyers, disagree with this assertion.
I think these are really important stories to share and openly discuss but the way this question is asked is just ridiculously insensitive.
I'm waiting for the 9 features. That should make things easier. Since I'm targeting small physician practices, I need to make everything as simple as possible. I've even toyed with Raspberry Pi as the install device. From what I've read, Go is a good option for this.
When most people talk about React, they aren't talking the single library, but rather, the ecosystem of libraries that enable you to build applications. Most "frameworks" are just a collection of libraries too - the difference is in branding, and most frameworks are really just a pre-built package.json/Gemfile/etc.

I'd venture to say that very few if any of the sites Facebook lists at https://github.com/facebook/react/wiki/sites-using-react are using "React the view library" by itself.
YMMV, I guess. I can get upgrades using miles pretty routinely from US East Coast to Asia.

The other challenge with those sorts of routes though is that you also need a lot more range than the Concorde had. Its range was around 3500 to 4500 miles depending on various factors.
There are lots of vices and tasks that adults can usually handle but minors may not. Alcohol, tobacco, drugs (in as far as these are legal in a given jurisdiction), voting, operating heavy machinery, driving cars…

In Japan sexually explicit comics are strictly 18+, clearly marked as such, and are sold as you would sell liquor or cigarettes. Making sure children don't have access to these is a matter of public awareness and parental guidance — it seems to work pretty well there.

> I know people who have been messed up when they were very young and found it.

Messed up from lolicon (i.e., Japanese comics featuring minors in sexually evocative situations) or messed from access to porn in general (or even actual child pornography)?
2500 connections. I don't even try to actively use LinkedIn, but I get some referrals and short-term contracts through the grapevine. Not sure if this is just my network, or if anyone can find use from sheer number of loose connections.
Well no, the issue is that the ps4 is constraining the tcp receive window (which is how much data is in flight at once), so if your ISP DNS gives you a CDN node that's 200ms away but google's DNS gives you a CDN node that's 10ms away, you get receive_window bytes every 10ms instead of every 200ms.

There's a similar thing happening (different DNS giving vastly different experience) with Netflix as well: Netflix has local nodes _inside_ many ISP's networks, close to ISP subscribers. If you use your ISP's DNS (and if they're doing their job properly), they'll send you to one of the local nodes and it'll take much less time to buffer, your stream will start faster, you'll drop less etc. Whereas if you use Google's DNS, they don't (necessarily) know the inner workings of your ISP so they send you to a generic Netflix CDN node that's near-ish but still probably 10-100x "farther" as the photon flies.

If you want to have a mix of DNS settings per domain name, you can set up a dnsmasq inside your network and configure it to recurse to google's DNS normally but recurse to your ISP's DNS for just netflix.com, nflxvideo.com etc. see for instance [0] for one way to set that up. they have it running on a dd-wrt router but I have it running just on some rando linux machine somewhere in the house and configure my DHCP to tell everything to use that machine's IP as the primary DNS.

> If it exits, who cares if the memory of the process is corrupted?

People care when memory is corrupted without the process exiting. It is usually better for a program to crash than for it to continue having corrupted its data. The former gives you x-ray machines which sometimes won't start, whilst the latter gives you x-ray machines which sometimes give the patient cancer.

I say better, not best. Best, obviously, is for as many failure modes as possible to be detected before the code is deployed. Particularly if you're programming a machine that can kill people. But in the comparison between Go's interface{} and C's void*, neither language has that option.
No spine, but with France it produced the Concorde, a wonderful, ridiculous, marvellous machine.
>The problems these two sets of languages solve are fundamentally different.

I'm afraid I fail this intelligence test. What problems are solved by C, Go, PHP and server-side JS but not by any of Java, C++, C#, D, Rust or Scala (and vice versa)?

This seems like a completely arbitrary classification to me.
I'm sorry if I'm ignorant of the platform, are the different posts the interview questions? Also what am I to make of the platform itself? Is this an app hosted on heroku I can access later on my phone? If that's the case that would be awesome, like a targeted stackoverflow.
That's true. I actually don't know how the incentives are structured for executives in the German broadcast but they seem to reward creating quality, unbiased news.

If you look at the most popular newspaper in Germany which is essentially a tabloid it's clear it's not because there is less demand for that kind of trash in Germany.

The whole process of preprocessing, graphing, reducing dimensions, ML... do you prefer to do it one-by-one in Jupyter or Jupyter-like envrionment vs. just make one big python script? Just curious about common workflows.

> any developer contributing ... has a moral obligation to stop

Oh, come off it!

If you went to some company and got a patent license, and then proceeded to sue that company for patent infringement on an unrelated patent, they would terminate your license. (That's what cross licensing prevents.) So FB is granting React users a patent license free. Why wouldn't they revoke the license if you were suing them? There's no difference from the normal state of affairs except the patent license is free. Now, if you are worried about FB infringing on your patents, it's wisest not to use React, but that's no different than licensing a patent from someone else.
Pretty much every language has this: Java, Python, Ruby, Haskell, OCaml, C++... The only major language that I can think of that doesn't have a standard error propagation mechanism is C.
