Ah, yes, for interbank reconciliation and talking to the Fed. Typically not for merchant services related ACH applications.
Erlang Garbage Collection Details and Why It Matters
yeah, you are probably right. I guess in the future if you don't need a cab (no human driver), and you don't need heavy fuel tanks (plus full fuel weight), you can use much of that space to put quite a bit of battery.
The prior can generally only be understood in the context of the likelihood
Even calling it archaic is too harsh. Granted, the batch-centric nature is not ideal (and it's hard to imagine a system with this kind of latency built in being designed today), but if you're designing a system based on batch processing then shipping files over SFTP is a pretty reasonable way to do it.

Wow, it's like a vastly lamer and far less exciting Jurassic Park.
No bank has full trust of any other entity. It's not black and white. They use ratings (either Standard and Poor's or others) to determine the risk involved in a liability. Even the U.S. Government has a certain amount of risk.
I second the effectiveness and pleasantness of Hyundai's implementation. My 2015 Sonata has those features (its standard now, but was introduced that year for the Limited trim). It, combined with auto-hold to apply the brakes when the car stops, made road trips and slow going commutes so much more pleasant. It sucks for stop and go traffic, since it disengages when the car completely stops. But I can't fault a cruise control system for sucking at a scenario that doesn't actually involve cruising.
Clearly you don't live somewhere where speed limits are rigorously enforced. Setting a limiter frees you up from having to match the limit yourself and allows you to pay more attention to the road.
While "part 1" of this series says "FTP" (implying plain-text/unencrypted data), "part 2" [0] and "part 3" [1] both say "SFTP". This is "more correct", in my experience, as encryption is pretty much always used nowadays.

You can do a lot worse than ACH. It's hard to read, but it's simple and pretty well-defined.

What _really_ sucks is one-off fixed-width formats that aren't well defined, or that change suddenly (oh, you thought that field would always be populated? lol no.)

I'll go with an unconventional choice: Michael Kleber's _The Best Card Trick_: http://www.northeastern.edu/seigen/11Magic/Articles/Best%20C...
Remember that the reason a supercharger takes an hour to charge is due to the limits of battery chemistry. If you quadruple the size of a battery, it will still take only an hour to charge. Presumably Tesla has a super-duper charger in mind which will be able to charge a truck in an hour just like normal super chargers can charge several vehicles simultaneously. Creating a high voltage/amperage charging system would be easier than swapping batteries.

Truckers often prefer driving many hours at a time, but most would be willing to pay more for a rig that needs to stop every 4-5 hours to recharge the truck if the fuel costs are much lower. Owner-operators can only drive around 13 hours a day anyway. Maintenance costs should also be lower. Electric trucks should win a few years after you can find super-duper chargers everywhere.

I look forward to the day we never have to hear another Jake brake.
If you ask 20 'experts' what REST is you will get 20 different answers with surprisingly little overlap.

You are basically asking them to tell you what your personal definition of REST is. You trying to hire psychics?

It’s quite interesting, because obviously an entirely different class of issues becomes apparent when the speed between two lanes on a highway can differ by a factor of 4.

This is what you get when the speed limit actually is "unlimited".

Actually it's not. Our blog doesn't get nearly enough traffic to be of interest to sponsors! I can understand why you'd think that though; I'm always suspicious of whether PR is involved when people mention products.

In this case though, I just wanted to get my system down in a blog post, so I can refer people to it in the future rather than always repeating the same stuff.

Besides, if I was going to push a product, it'd be one of ours! Looking to buy a car? Search all the top sites at once with AutoTempest.com! :P

By instructors. As in those who advise or train people to use firearms.

> UK law very definitely requires you to stop shooting immediately once the danger is past - see R v Clegg.

Pretty sure so does the US law. It comes to how determination of "danger is past" happens. There are two aspects there I can think of : 1) This idea that acting too calculating and methodical, shooting one round in the leg, waiting, seeing them crawl and reach for their firearm, shooting another round, etc might not play well in court as the jury might look at it and say "hmm, he had time sit around and think and observe, why didn't he run to save his life at that point" it becomes dubious that this was self defense it starts to look like attempted murder there. While something like "life was in danger, reacted quickly, shot all the rounds, etc". Not saying one way is right or wrong it is just juries I think are inclined to acquit in the later case. 2) There is probably the same perverse idea as the Chinese drivers backing up and making sure they really crush that victim well enough for them to die, because then a dead person they can't sue in a civil court.
But why use banks at all then?

The Mystery of the Missing Ferns
It's obviously a time-travelling indian. That's the simplest explanation.
The problem is that no businesses want to spend money to fix something that isn’t broken. It’s the reason XP (or earlier!) is/are still around; “Why should we spend money updating to Windows 7 when 2000 works just fine?”
Is it sftp or ftps? They're very different things and I am fairly certain it's the latter.
I know a lot of people who were entirely unaffected by it. The phone comes with a tiny little dongle, put it on your headphones and there's no difference. Hardly what I'd call "insanity" and other manufacturers are now following suit.

You might argue that there's still a problem when using high impedance headphones, but that's not really a concern for 99.99% of iPhone users. It's like complaining that a non-RS Ford Focus is "insane" because it wasn't designed with drifting in mind.
It's not a personal definition I'm looking for, I'm pretty sure all of those experts would mention at least once "stateless". And to be honest I would be happy with that, I would just like to get any answer and if it makes sense I'd be ok with that. I'd like to get something reasonable I'm not asking for the Stars.
The reason historically is proximity to the executive(s) residences. Exhibits are the locations of Netflix, Workday, and Seagate in the early days.
Did they use sftp from the OpenSSH package or was it some sort of commercial variant?
Okay, I concede it is totally possible. After including Nasa's atmosphere model and some drag coefficients from super-sonic bullets, it looks like Red Dragon's aerobraking maneuver would take 1600 seconds, cover 4800km and leave them with 3600 meters of altitude. (Those supersonic drag coefs were what really made the difference since they are around 0.3 at hypersonic and rise to 0.6 as it slows.)

V8 is a good runtime implementation for a pretty weak language. Personally I don't think node's existence is a net positive for the world. Ask yourself if we'd be farther ahead if the browsers of 20 years ago ran Perl instead. Anyhow, this entire thread already supports the two ideas that (1) implementation is hugely important and (2) not all issues are language issues per se.

"The Atlantic salmon bring with them pollution, virus and parasite amplification, and all that harms Pacific salmon and our waters of Washington," Beardslee said."

I honestly think that the Joe Blog's of the world have no idea how detrimental fish farming like this is to the environment, people in my family see it as a nice alternative to eating mammals. It's sad things like this have to happen to bring it to public attention.

I hope in the future they teach children to find out where there food comes from and what impact it has on their environment before purchasing it. This stuff isn't cool.
Thanks for your great input! Multiple times the only answer I got was "CRUD", without any explanation. Which from a certain perspective it relates to REST but from an experienced engineer is expected a little more, nothing specific just anything really.

Possible. Hence way more dangerous than autonomous systems
I'm glad you and squeaky-clean wrote these comments. When I was experimenting in the Python REPL, I was confused by the last line here:

>>> 100 is 100
True
>>> (10 ** 2) is (10 ** 2)
True
>>> (10 ** 3) is (10 ** 3)
False
>>> 1000 is 1000
True

I used the disassembler, but I completely missed that although `1000 is 1000` and `(10 3) is (10 3)` both get optimized to nearly identical bytecode they load different constants. I wrote it up in a new post and thanked you both. https://kate.io/blog/2017/08/24/python-constants-in-bytecode...
The rapid expansion was likely a huge part of why those coding bootcamps closed. Coding bootcamps generally aren't major educational institutions - they're usually more like recruiting agencies that happen to target people who are about 9 weeks of serious effort away from being entry-level developers. That is, they're limited by the number of high-quality applicants that they can find and vet, not by the ability to recruit teachers and refine their curriculum.

(Question marks are part of the answers, now with the third answer I'm usually fairly happy to begin with and I go into other questions, but that should be the bare minimum).

I've been asked this question as well when interviewing for a frontend position and I just mentioned a few key points and they were very happy about it. But if you're applying for a backend position shouldn't you know more?
Good point. Octonauts is Disney but the rest are PBS.

for me, when I'm learning some new language or tech I start off with whatever basic info / tutorials that are available, play around with a few mini projects (like algorithms), but the most important thing, LET OTHER PEOPLE SEE YOUR CODE, for me that often involved trying to answer questions on stackoverflow and posting on codereview, for instance when I was learning ramda I posted a simple solution for fizzbuzz - https://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/108449/fizzbu... for review and followed up on other peoples variations and it helped a lot.

when I thought I was too rusty on regex I went and tried to answer as many regex questions on stackoverflow

The great thing about stackoverflow is it presents real world problems that are often not straightforward. Even if you can't solve it, someone else more than likely will and you will have an "aha!"
Same thing happened to the old Polonez factory outside of Poznan in Poland.
It should be noted that md-raid does handle that scenario. I agree with you that the characterisation of this present limitation in btrfs is quite unfair, but not all RAID systems are susceptible to that problem.
My iPhone 6 Plus just went off contract. As soon as it dies, or slows down, I'm going to buy the best Android phone with a headphone jack. I'm sure wireless headphones are great, but the high cost - not to mention the silly dongle - just doesn't work for me. It's highly unlikely we will ever see a headphone jack on an Apple phone again. Their disdain for going backwards, let alone admitting they were ever wrong about anything ever, spells doom for the headphone jack. I would not be surprised if they don't remove it from all of their products.
Am I reading this right?

> Orson Aguilar, president of Oakland nonprofit The Greenlining Institute, which spearheaded the “#NoUberOakland” campaign, said he expected Uber’s earlier announcement of retrenchment might lead to the building’s sale.

> “Uber, with all its challenges, could still do something for the community and make a win for everyone’s benefit if it had dedicated significant space for a training center.”

Are they simultaneously saying that 1) NO - Uber shouldn't come to Oakland and 2) We're mad that Uber is leaving?

I have to be missing something...
For the journey, yes. But for permanent settlement, in both cases you'll need of the order of years-worth of supplies while you become self-sufficient.

Back on-topic, the discovery of water on the moon makes this more achievable there; otherwise Mars's resources might have actually meant less resources were required.
They're discouraged from complaining about downvoting.
AR has huge business potential in any job that requires use of both of your hands, especially for tasks where you’re moving around and don’t want to be tied to a monitor.

I agree with you when it comes to jobs that are currently done with monitors on desks.
Ask HN: Recommend a payment platform for my saas project?
I'm ready to add subscriptions to my consumer saas project. It is a Gmail addon accessed through a web app and chrome extension.

I have a fremium model, with multiple levels of upgrades.

Can anyone recommend a solid payment platform that a one person dev can implement with minimal fuss?

I need subscription support (monthly, annual), security, and straightforward apis. Also, I don't want to store any card numbers in my app.

Is anyone using chargify to handle the account management part? I like the feature set but it gets expensive as you scale. I could spend time upfront to code those features myself.

My app is written in Python running on Google app engine.

Thank you.
Given your experience with this type of advice, would you suggest putting my money on red or black?

Spoken languages are like that too. A 3 year old doesn't know what verbs are. They just speak.

I liked (and still like them in UK/NL/TH/US) Uber; it was more convenient and nicer than cabs. Cabbies in the countries I frequent are downright rude, their cars filthy and beaten; Uber was a welcome change. But in most of them now they are forbidden or mostly forbidden or on their way out. Some companies made their own horrible apps which half of the time do not work (in Barcelona I tried them all and none of them managed to get a ride, one of them simply crashed at startup etc) or are 'old' as in you have type a time and date when you want a ride and cannot order for 'now'. I have not seen one where the gps actually works so you see if your ride is actually coming and ofcourse, because usually they are made by a big taxi corp, no ratings, so back to rude, smelly drivers in crap cars.

In HKG there seem to be issues, the prices went up and drivers often cancel (more so than in other countries I noticed); I do not think it should be possible for a driver to just cancel because they find the trip too short. I should be able to rate them for that. But still more convenient than cabs who you wave over, tell the location and then they drive off for the same reason.

Another gripe is payments; in some countries payment card A works, in some B works etc. Paypal als payment doesn't work in Thailand. Still, while annoying, it is better than 'only cash mate' that often happens in cabs.

Anyway more competitors would be good ; any way to get all rides on an acceptable level. In countries like Spain where they now are forbidden, I was happy to see them in hopes they would fix the issues with cabs in general (especially in the south) but nope, it just returned to the comfortable bad behavior of always. Last weeks ride from Malaga airport had a cabdriver loudly burp garlic for 20 minutes. Can only complain by filling a form no-one will ever look at.
When you eat with someone multiple times a day, every single day, for decades, sometimes eating is just a utilitarian task you are performing to fuel your body and to not be hungry. Why does it always have to be social? When I was a kid in the 80s, we often would just get plates of food and go back to whereever we had been doing whatever we had been doing.

I am someone who grew up to hate notifications: my phone is on silent; and when I am present with you having an actual meal, you have my 100% attention in a way no one else I know does anymore. I say this to make it clear that I didn't grow up to dislike social dinners: if anything, I grew up to love them as they were never forced on me.
