It really depends on the company. If your product is software then the CTO is in charge of your entire company minus ancillary functions and should definitely get a ton of equity.

If your startup sells shoes or something the CTO isn't nearly as important.
>When Instagram decided to shutdown about 30 accounts related to cannabis last year, a former employee tried charging people up to $7,500 to reactivate them since he still had access to the feature. He was found out, and his access was officially terminated, according to James.

I've had multiple accounts deactivated for cannabis, and seen hundreds of other weedy IGs deleted -- while businesses like the official High Times sit loftily at over 1 million followers AND verified. It doesn't surprise me that there are shady backdoor deals going on.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who is skeptical, but the more I click around the more I can't find anything to actually criticize? I guess I'm just surprised at how someone so young can both be so smart and also have such a well crafted social media presence / personal brand or whatever you want to call it.

I'm not yet 30 and this might be the oldest I've felt in my entire life. I'm going to stop being skeptical and just remind myself that kids are smart and capable of incredible things and that adults constantly underestimate them. I'm going to choose to believe that they really are as "productive" as they seem to be.

They also make a number of water resistant phones. They aren't really any more bulky. Some have things like Girilla Glass and are pretty robust. I'm not sure that lower specs are a requirement.
Haha I actually learned most of my knowledge on AI and machine learning from Stanford lectures, so I'd agree when you say it's university-level stuff.

Nonetheless, it's incredibly helpful when you have a passion for this kind of stuff. There are tons of resources out there for learning this stuff, and it's really interesting :)

I just updated FF Nightly on Android and the new Photon UI is very big, very white and very obtrusive feeling in comparison to before I updated. I've got a pretty small android phone, I'm sure it looks better on the phablets of the world, but I ask for a dark UI option and small screen footprint please.

Edit: Found some images http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/08/08/mozillas-new-photon-...
I just noticed, it recolors my system stsusbar too. So, it's white on white while FF is open. Everywhere else it's black.

Oversupply? America has almost no real bread.

Maybe instead solve the overabundance of sugar, mass-produced, full of BS preservatives and artificial flavors BS that passes for bread in the US?
I know nothing about wheat farming or it's environmental impacts, obviously my guesses were off the mark. Thanks for the correction on matters of fact, though it looks like our conclusions weren't really at odds -- mine being that the wastage that is paid for is manageable, and the externalities not outrageous.
My thoughts are that no-one will invest in hundreds or thousands of nodes till they have seen and bought and used a dozen - and the supplier of the prototype will almost certainly be the supplier for the rest.

For many companies the sales channel to this might be the it agency (postlight type of company) - so I would suggest selling your expertise to these guys first.

Not if the money of the BS subsidies and such could have gone to infrastructure works, education, and welfare programs, to stop them from being "hungry people" in a positive and enabling way instead of the "free bread" charity.

Interesting! Thanks for the reference. I think all the waiting I have dealt with is server (vs. animation) as well. I'll have to play around with this idea...
I've found it useful to consider transportation + housing in aggregate. It can cost the same to have a centrally located apartment vs. a suburban apartment + car.

For that specific customer, off the self stuff would not last more than a day or two as it had to survive -20C to 80C temperature swings in the space of a few minutes, along with the enclosure being rated to IP69K. The single board computer we used was off the shelf, then modified to survive the conditions inside the enclosure (eg: adding conformal coatings).

Making electronics survive those conditions is expensive and most people don't need that level of protection.

I'm sorry you had this experience.

I'm also happy to say that we actually did improve our build chain. I have a build env for Firefox on Mac, Windows and Linux and it all works quite smoothly.
The only issue is that full compilation takes time (30 minutes on my laptop).

It measured me from a 61mm to 65mm PD. So call it accurate within ±4mm.

Uh, no... This is ±2mm (around a center value of 63)

Daniel LivingstonSeptember 12, 2013 at 6:10 PM
Oh yes that's true, I meant to explain it is inaccurate by up to 4mm.
You have misunderstood what "foregone conclusion" means in this case. It is not a foregone conclusion that this is child porn on the disks. It is a foregone conclusion that there is something on the disks and that something is encrypted with a password known by the defendant.

This brings into sharp focus how powerful social networks are in deciding who gets seen and promoted. Fascinating.

I suspect it's because the XUL used in Firefox and later is not "pure".

I seem to recall that one of the big "optimizations" that FF did compared to the mozilla suite (these days known as Seamonkey) was to translate a bunch of UI elements into native equivalents rather than drawing it all from XUL.

Thus replacing that with HTML may well be closer to reverting to the pre-FF XUL way.
The plan is to support it in 58:

I run a cannabis company in CA. After seeing my friend's account reactivated a few months ago he told me he paid 3k for the service. When that IG employee got fired there were 5 cannabusiness accounts I knew of that were deleted on the same day. All people who paid the restoration fee.
It's your prescription. It's your health data. Don't take no for an answer. I'm almost positive that they are legally required to give you that data. Asserting your rights is not a bad thing.

To add to this, I get my prescription from the doctor, but I still buy glasses from them. They will open up on a Saturday for me. I've ordered what I consider to be disposable glasses online.
They might send that back to the manufacturer to fix.

In the Reddit thread, they talked about replacing the aperture module for some of the lenses; that's just a simple swap, along with cleaning the adjacent elements.

I agree that implicit wait is something of a time waster.

Regarding clear, that does appear to be exactly what the Python implementation does[0], but in my experience it just seemed to fail at random. If I remember correctly it worked most of the time with geckodriver, and then hardly ever with chromedriver. Really not sure what exactly the deal is with that...

And yes the time wait is a little pointless (:

I can agree with that. And, with material, some effort is good.
> I know of no biological forms that have evolved wheels. But wheels have turned out to be a hell of a lot faster than fins or legs.

On certain terrain. And much slower - sometimes useless - on others. Wheels aren't simply better legs, they're a different way of moving, with its own benefits and drawbacks.

Likewise, if we're talking about computational ability, we already have things that are faster than the human brain in certain areas (say, numerical computation). When we talk about AGI, we're talking about human-like intelligence (at least to a certain degree).

So we already have the wheel, but now we want to develop something that does what the leg does. Now, maybe that doesn't have to be an actual leg, but that's usually what people usually end up with when they try to find something that will have a similar functionality as a leg.
We also need help in making it practically anonymous :)
When you hire a lens, you're contractually and personally on the hook for anything not insured.

I've found message passing and thinking in transactions are pretty good architectural patterns for maintaining ones sanity. Message queues with spinlocks for performance critical code (mutexes are slow).

The biggest sin generally is to disregard the overhead caused by thread management and thinking more threads makes the sofrware run faster.

I've seen people try to parallellize a sequential program by just spawning mutexes everywhere and then thinking now any number of threads can do whatever they please. Of course when tested the system was quite a bit slower as when it ran on a single thread (the system was quite large so quite a lot of work was needed before reaching this state).

Yeah, I'm going to politely disagree that one can do multidimensional statistics and understand what one is doing without rudimentary understanding of linear algebra and probability and basic concepts of calculus (derivatives, integrals). The branch of science specialized in analyzing data is known as "statistics": it's a mature field that's been around for some time, and the things a working statistician should know are quite well established.

Similar attitudes in the past have lead into misconceptions like if you are only applying statistics in your research, you don't really have to understand what p-value is, just run the magical tests and report if it's "significant" or not.
Hey! I haven't posted to the Chrome Store yet because I was the only one using it so I didn't want to pay their fee. But I'll submit there next week.
Evolution creeps along.

Engineering ability however appears to be growing exponentially. It took millions of years for the brain to reach the place it is now but it only took a few thousand years to get to the moon and create the Internet. I wouldn't count out the power of engineering because biology is complex. Particularly given ever more powerful tools of computation and communication that have only recently (historically speaking, not in lifespans of javascript frameworks) come on line.
To the comments below who think IG isn't that important--I close upwards of $40,000 of monthly recurring revenue from IG outreach every month. It's value can't be understated.
>IMO the "pragmatic rules-of-thumb" approach to teaching/understanding statistics is probably the genesis point of the reproducability crisis. This mindset toward stats has probably done more damage to Psychology than anything else in the history of the field.

Sure, but then we have another problem: if you need to know measure theory to run an experiment, nobody will run experiments. And lots of mathematical statistics just goes ahead and uses the measure theory.
It'd be easier to test and keep current with what Mozilla wants tested if they had a delta update for the nightly rather than a monolithic binary. For example if they jumped on board with delivering a flatpak version.
No, no, no. What I want to see in a commit message is what the person who made the change thought the reason behind the change was.

Anything generated based just on the basis of the diff (what actually changed) is going to always fall short as to capturing the _reason_.

The "what" I can always see myself by just loking at the change diff. The "why" is the important bit and no algorithm can ever give me that.

The compelling of revealing a safe's combination is protected in prior cases (I liked on earlier in this thread but I'll quote it again)

We do not disagree with the dissent that “[t]he expression of the contents of an individual’s mind” is testimonial communication for purposes of the Fifth Amendment. … We simply disagree with the dissent’s conclusion that the execution of the consent directive at issue here forced petitioner to express the contents of his mind. In our view, such compulsion is more like “be[ing] forced to surrender a key to a strongbox containing incriminating documents” than it is like “be[ing] compelled to reveal the combination to [petitioner’s] wall safe.”

Of course, the Supreme Court hasn't ruled on it as far as I know, but it's an interesting case. I'd like the SCOTUS to rule on it.
A password is information that you "know" not something you "have." I believe that giving a password is testifying information. This appears to be the sticking point. He is being locked up for refusing to say the equivalent of a word that would be information used against him. To me, that is being locked up for refusing to testify. Locking up for refusing is compelling. Therefore he is being compelled to testify.
