You're correct. Here's a story of them replacing 60,000 people in one factory. Just incredible!

I have to be selective about maintenance of features. I'll consider GPG support.
We use minutes watched at my company to talk about how much screen time content has as it's much more compelling and accurate than 'views' imo. We just hit 7 Billion minutes watched for last 30 days.
We have psychological safety checks for police/social service workers/military/etc.

Could those not apply here?
Not right now. Maybe use WAL-E until you upgrade?
Text means a sequence of characters conforming to some character encoding. Yoric's binary AST is not a sequence of characters conforming to a character encoding.

Compilation maps a program in a higher level language to a program in a lower level language. The map is not required to be one-to-one: the colloquial term for this is "lossy."
NB that I have only a little experience with C++ and none whatsoever with kernel and/or OS development.

> Once you've striped all those features from C++, what's left to differentiate it from C?

Not much, I suspect. You can declare variables anywhere instead of just the beginning of a block, you can use references, and C++ handles const-ness much better than C. Function and operator overloading is a double-edged sword, but it is possible to use them in a way that makes code easier to write, read, and maintain. C++ being C++, there are surely a bunch of things I miss.

But yes, without all the advanced features the gap between C and C++ shrinks significantly,
The bonuses are quite high, is the reason.

Amazon pays competitive salaries.

They are probably a bit below Google or Facebook salaries, but compared to an average SF startup, they pay literally 50-100% more. (the offer I just got from them was 80% more than my SF startup salary).

Some of their behavior is indeed "annoying" ie they have a weird stock options vesting schedule, but if you actually do the math, and think with your head, you see that their total compensation is quite competitive.

The moral of the story is, if you care about compensation, don't work for startups. Even the "less competitive" companies like Amazon, with "scummy" behavior like claw backs, are still miles ahead of the average startup, in terms of compensation.
Think about what redhat was 10 years ago. They were basically a company that burned a Linux distro on a CD and shipped it to CompUSA that sold it for $50. You how exactly everything will unfold but just like we knew linux was the future, I thinks it's becoming obvious that containers are the future as well.
We've done some experimental work with other languages (specifically Chinese). We think the Cortex Knowledge Graph API will do well when moved into other language domains, but the Sapien Language Engine will likely require full-rewrites of its core code for non-Romance languages.
It's not a paradox but it's based on our own techonlogical progression which is weird.

We are as a species 200-250,000 years old.
For most of that time we did absolutely fucking nothing as it seems.
Even for the recorded history which if we take the past 10,000 years then we still didn't made much progress as we did in the past 100.
And the weird part is that we still have small pockets of population living like our ancestors 200K years ago.

In 100 years we went from horses to cars, to rockets and spaceships to the internet and computers small enough to fit in our pockets.

The 20th century was weird as fuck as far as scientific progression goes.

It's just my own observation. It's definitely wider in the US than other places but also enforced differently, depending on where you go. In the US, we have a "soft" enforcement, although with doxxing, etc., it's not so soft in many cases.

As a human, I like to have tools to fix/prevent human error.
Seems to be missing people from the ingredients.
Well, for one thing, a binary format’s inherent “obfuscatedness” actually works in its favor here. If Binary AST is adopted, I’d expect that in practice, essentially all files in that format will be generated by a tool specifically designed to work with Binary AST, that will never output an invalid file unless there’s a bug in the tool. From there, the file may still be vulnerable to random corruption at various points in the transit process, but a simple checksum in the header should catch almost all corruption. Thus, most developers should never have to worry about encountering lazy errors.

By contrast, JS source files are frequently manipulated by hand, or with generic text processing tools that don’t understand JS syntax. In most respects, the ability to do that is a benefit of text formats - but it means that syntax errors can show up in browsers in practice, so the unpredictability and mysteriousness of lazy errors might be a bigger issue.

I suppose there could just be a little declaration at the beginning of the source file that means “I was made by a compiler/minifier, I promise I don’t have any syntax errors”…

In any case, parsing binary will still be faster, even if you add laziness to text parsing.
You are being deliberately obtuse though. As others have explained, the fund entity is setup in the Caymans to provide tax neutral position on the funds under management (and legal separation from the management entity). The management entity will pay tax in the jurisdiction its a tax resident, as will investors in the fund when any dividends are distributed/capital gain is realised.
It is borderline irresponsible for a blog post to tout NBC's Snapchat initiatives without fitting in a line about how NBC is Snapchat's biggest (perhaps only?) major media investor, to the tune of $500M: https://www.recode.net/2017/3/3/14801168/snap-nbc-investment...

I don't mean to suggest that NBC is futzing the numbers to bolster its investment, just that they have a massive incentive to make things look as rosy as possible. And, on the flip side, they have an incentive to be as innovative in the media storytelling space as possible. Other outlets have Snapchat presences but nothing quite to this scale.

When I find myself with a tough decision, I remind myself that it's tough for a reason: either the available options are similarly good, or similarly bad, or both. Therefore, the choice between them is not likely actually all that important. In poker you can bet the odds and be sure that there is a correct decision either way. In life you're probably lucky if that's true; it seems like the black swans are prevalent enough to sink almost any strategy.

“...if you can defund it, it won't be in good shape. And there is a standard technique of privatization, namely defund what you want to privatize. Like when Thatcher wanted to defund the railroads, first thing to do is defund them, then they don't work and people get angry and they want a change. You say okay, privatize them and then they get worse.” - Noam Chomsky

This is 100% the case with the UKs rail system, and our national health service is being underfunded at and amazing rate. I always think Jeremy Hunt looks like he’s just received a particularly distressing colonoscopy which I suppose is why he hates doctors and nurses so much.

NHS costs less than half the cost of the American system for similar outcomes and it worked really really well when funded at the level of other European countries under the last Labour government.

Maybe the 'crypto' vs 'digital' is too subtle for most ppl to understand (as in, what drives the use of the language. Why players are motivated to use the words they do). Maybe I didn't explain it well.

It's like the use of the term 'bcash' to discredit Bitcoin Cash.

Developer tools have never had a huge market. Honestly, what are the necessary products for a relatively small market of thrifty developers? Maybe an editor, a nice keyboard, hosted code repo, and some code analysis tools? It's not a huge market.

Containers are something else entirely. They'll probably be running on every device on the planet in one form or another in just a few years. Anytime you're on the forefront of something like that, there's money to be made.
This would have been perfect for iPad 2's and 3's on which Safari and the normal Firefox keep crashing under the weight of the current bloated web.

But alas, the "simple and lightweight" Firefox Focus actually requires a heavyweight 64-bit processor:

> Why aren't older Apple products supported? Safari Content Blockers (which include Firefox Focus) are only available on devices with an A7 processor (64-bit) or later. Only 64-bit processors can handle the extra load of content blocking, which insures optimal performance. For example, since the iPad 3 has an A5 processor, Firefox Focus is incompatible.[1]

Come on, iPad 2's and 3's are less than 5 years old. There has to be some way to keep the iPad 2 or 3 alive if all you want to do browse the web.

In most parts of the EU Apple has a marketshare around or below 15%. That’s about the same that Windows Phone 7 had at its peak.

So, think about how much of a monopoly position Windows Phone 7 had, and try to imagine Apple had that. You can probably imagine why Apple is not in any shape to abuse their position.

If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have gone researching it and then finding legocia's 2017 comment to a 2010 StackOverflow thread where he says that perhaps a pull request involving an "event manager for signals" might make it into R20.

So, you're welcome...and thank you for getting me to look :-)
I've worked a bit on ECG signals (Physionet, too). You may want to take a look at:

- "Baseline Correction with Asymmetric Least Squares Smoothing" by Paul H. C. Eilers and Hans F.M. Boelens[0]. They used it for chromatography and spectroscopy but I've had great results applying that to detect and remove the baseline from ECG. The article provides 11 lines of MATLAB code to illustrate.

- Savitzky-Golay filter: For smoothing. I liked it for some of the noisy signals.

- Poincaré plot for RR intervals.

C++ is somewhat of a low bar, because of the state of the art in package management in C++ land is "download a header-only library". C++ does have sum types in the form of boost::variant, but boost is an abomination.

The danger to Rust is that for many projects it wins by default because the alternative languages are immature, rather than because its performance/security capabilities are actually worth the productivity trade-off compared to other languages.

Once Swift matures a bit, it will take a lot of the lustre from Rust.

The least you could do is acknowledge to the person behind you that you're about to do it. You're acting as if you're being told to file a permit. On the contrary, it's pretty common courtesy.
I'd say it worked similarly for me.

There was an initial hard slog around the borrow checker, but once it all clicked it's been very smooth sailing. The only thing I've had trouble with in the months since is when I went to write some macros, but that was more me not reading the docs closely enough. I'd say I am very productive in it now and I don't view any of Rust's features as being a productivity problem.

If you're struggling with Rust, I'd say keep going until you get that "click."

I'm trying to think how this would be a problem and it wouldn't directly be a issue created by company but could be a issue in companies we deal with passing around large databases of different types on people in America. It's common we have to deal with a pipe delimited set of large data and after loading it I'm sure my boss could see last name null in MySQL and go "let's delete all "null" names.

We already know sitting is bad. Now we know standing is bad too. We know exercise is good, so it seems pretty obvious that the answer is to have regular exercise.
My dream is a static-first (like with inmutable-first) language with a way to do dynamic.

The thing is not available (as far I know) is to build a dynamic object and "close it" for further modification so the compiler can optimize well. Other, that requiere good metaprograming, is to build a dynamic object AT COMPILE TIME (macro?) and close it, then the type-system work after that (F# type provider is almost this)

A use case is reflect a database/data storage like JSON or relational table. I wish, like with python, to do:

class Customer = @build(table("Customer"))

and after this line :

c = Customer()
print c.name

to 'c' be a static type. If at compile time, it check the type, let say the field change to c.fullname, to mark as a type error.

If in runtime, like a interpreter, to "close" Customer and be certain that it never will mutate.

AKA: Inmutable types/clases, but the posibility to mutate it in some discret places.

Make sense?
For me, plex is kind of this love-affair-product-turned-into-company based on unique insight into the home media experience, years before any other. I'm sure the founders and employees were passionate about what they did. And still are.

At the same time, they seem more disconnected to users than ever. In comments below/above you can witness the testament of their support. In their "feature request" threads you can see tens of thousands of (plex pass) users voting for something they feel important and have felt so for years (when the issue was opened) with no parseable reply. Put simply, their priorities (read: release/feature strategy) seems to be based on marketing impact.

I admire them for their insight into market as well as a lot of technology made look simple; like ssl for everyone[1] and a "just works" media scanner. It's just hard to see the forest these days.
