How is she a master? She looks like an amateur hobbyist, the main positive she has is that she looks fairly active and she's actually building stuff. Looking at her youtube I saw 3d printed bikini cups, what looked like her putting together some shelves and a skirt with lights under it. That's not masterful, but it does take a little dedication and maybe some nights or weekends.
Lessons from 20 Years of Hype Cycles
One bad apple can spoil the barrel.
Knowledge, use it or lose it.
I'm not sure how to respond to this. I can't tell if you read both sentences of my previous comment. My point was that the Bourne reference would have been funny without the objectification of women by the inclusion of the phrase "and slightly-above-average women" in the comment at the top of the thread.
I am not a lawyer, so all ideas from here on are probably wrong either because of something obvious or because of some common law ruling.

In the UK, Prostitution is not illegal, but running a brothel/pimping is illegal. Therefore, I think a sufficiently, generic service might be able to operate in the UK (If it were done on the basis of one prostitute operating their own shop - so to speak). This is of course dependent on whether it is illegal to pimp out oneself.

Not being a lawyer, however, I don't know whether whether an implication of prostitution (even if the service were generic) would be sufficient to prosecute on grounds of pimping/running an e-brothel.
I believe that there is an element that gravitate to this line of work, not all, but a demographic and they are not weeded out.
Well, I suppose that's better than making things a lot worse.

> It's espresso, not expresso.

Nitpick on your nitpick. While the word originated in Italy as espresso and that is mostly what we use in the English-speaking world, expresso is not totally uncommon and it's not necessarily a misspelling or folk-etymological error. French and Portuguese use the expresso variation for instance, and the x spelling is considered 're-latinized'.

Depending on where you live the beverage may have entered your culture via French or Italian influences, perhaps one reason why expresso seems more common in Canada than in the US (though espresso dominates in Canada as well, no doubt helped by the ubiquity of Starbucks).

After buying a number of apple accessories, I've come to the conclusion that Apple treats them as disposable items.

I've upgraded from the Apple 1 through 3 and then switched to the Fire stick.

Airport Express? Got a number of those AND an old XP machine to configure them since Apple abandoned support on macOS.

Their routers don't do WDS with other routers.

When the 7 came out without a headphone jack, it was the last straw. I don't know what I'll buy when my 5s dies, but it's not going to be an iPhone.
This seems like it is Google preparing itself for a future where it will almost certainly be hit with the antitrust hammer here in the US. Google has been getting increasing pressure from the EU [1]. It, at least in the public's eye, has been showing more monopolistic behavior and getting more attention, like discussed here [2]. There has been talk of Amazon and Facebook facing similar antitrust issues in the future too, but those seem to be quieter.

The future is uncertain, but this will sure be interesting.

I don't disagree that CEH is inflated, and this coming from me, the guy who paid $1000 for the chance to test.

What the CEH does give people is a curriculum that they can adhere to. Not everyone can wrap their head around a complex subject like infosec alone. It's not a badge of honor, especially in a niche like infosec. But it does show you're serious about the field and willing to make a financial commitment. That's why i'd say it's worth considering if you're looking to make a career move. Of course, look at every other option and choose the best fit for you.

My money is on Charlotte NC, or perhaps Austin or Dallas if Charlotte is considered the coast somehow.

200k in those areas is obviously quite good but not life-altering money. You'll need to work 5-10 years before you become a millionaire.

Anesthesiologists in that area can make up to 600k.

For what it's worth, in Design and Evolution of C++, Stroustrup says that when he was designing features, he would often think of a simple rule that he couldn't enforce (e.g., "couldn't enforce" being "if you violate this rule, the results are undefined") and a complex rule that he could enforce. He generally tried to pick the simpler, easier to teach rule. Unfortunately, that means there's more undefined behavior if those simpler rules are violated.
Hide glues are great in low-humidity environments but can loosen in high humidity. They're useful for fixing musical instruments, for example, because hide glue joints are reversible and repairable. Hide glued joints will release easily with the application of heat and steam. I was surprised to find that most older musical instruments have been repaired to a greater/lesser degree thanks to the use of hide glue.

Bow makers (as in "bows and arrows") commonly used hide glues in regions of low humidity, but a Turkish bow composed of tendon, bone, sinew, wood, horn and hide glue likely will fail to function properly in a rainy-weather locale.

I've said in the past, over a few beers, that instead of just switching the doodle over, google should integrate disaster images and video into google maps and allow people to see the damage first hand. The effect of spatializing this information is truly profound. I did not understand katrina until I visited the 9th ward and saw the damage myself.

I've also said over beers that we need a system to aggregate disaster information. In a situation where we have 100+ fires and 1000+ flood related rescues, sifting through the noise is a nearly impossible task.
I heard of this but haven't seen it used anywhere outside of school. Do you have any experience whether this correlates with how readable people find code to be?

SEEKING WORK - Berlin, Germany/New York City - Remote Ok

Experienced full stack, product focused Ruby and Javascript developer with work history focused on startups. Some big company (e.g. NY Times, Cleversafe), small business and agency experience as well. Most of my experience is with Rails and/or Angular but I've also worked with node.js, React, Sinatra, Wordpress and Python/Django. Not dev-ops per say but I have experience managing deployments with AWS, Digital Ocean, Rackspace and Heroku.

A lot of my projects have involved helping startups get to an MVP or build out features from an MVP. I've also done cleanup on projects when another agency or developer was behind schedule and a project needed to ship ASAP. Really I'm open to any project that sounds interesting, let's talk. Lots of client facing experience as well, great at communicating with the business side and shaping technical decisions around business needs. I can also pick up the slack when design resources are short.

I've been based out of NYC for 8 years & I'm still in the city regularly but at the moment I'm in Berlin seeking a freelancer visa. Open to work with both U.S. & German clients.

I've been into Bitcoin since 2011, and it's interesting that people are still making tulip comparisons 6 years later. Tulip mania itself only lasted about 9 months. I wonder how long Bitcoin will have to hold out before the tulip argument could no longer be made.

Great news (hope it continues), Intel has rested on it's laurels for the last 5 years. It's borderline absurd how difficult it is to get an Intel CPU these days, what with the random product segmentation and price gouging for features like more PCIe lanes and ECC RAM. Whichever brand you prefer it's important for AMD to succeed to keep everyone honest. I hope MAD improves on the GPU front so that Nvidia is kept honest as well.
To be honest, I don't think we should be seeking monetary settlements in cases like these, but rather criminal prosecution.

Large settlements are about as good at deterring cops from committing crimes as they are at deterring bankers from committing fraud in the name of the bank, because in either case the "principal" -- person paying the penalty -- is neither the cop nor the banker. Police departments don't care because the money is coming from the taxpayers and not the cops. The banks don't care, because the fine they pay for the fraud is less than the profit taken by the fraud.
Then I dont mind haha, theres more clickbaity stuff happening on my fb feeds everyday, at least she got the breasts done before the internet fame and not the other way around from how I remember it.
Are you saying I should sell?
Seems likely. This way if/when Google LLC gets hit by massive antitrust fines the rest of the Alphabet subsidiaries will be insulated.
> We need to rethink what is important: a little more performance, or representing (to our best possible guess) what the programmer actually intended.

I remember reading an old book about implementing a compiler. The book actually recommended that compilers should make an effort to fix simple mistakes; e.g., compilers should add semicolons if needed, check whether an undefined variable or function was actually a misspelled variable or function, etc. I wasn't sure whether I should laugh at the naivety or shudder about what kind of code that would have led to. Especially given that each compiler would be lenient in different ways from competing compilers.
And no one would buy that theoretical forked $1M bitcoin, so it would have no real impact on the price of the dominant coin.

But to your other questions, check out: http://longbets.org/
Probably the first thing to do is say that the word "racist" has passed its "used by date".

Most people discriminate against some other group, I have seen this in action in some very interesting places. Whether the discrimination arises from colour of skin (so that a black person discriminates another black person because of the differences in shading) to being born in a different locality (this shows up in so many places) to different heights (tall vs short or short vs tall) to different colouring of hair (blondes vs brunettes vs auburn vs redhead) to body shape (thin vs thick) to education background (which school or university you went to) to occupation (white collar to blue collar to etc) to religious background (moslem vs hindu vs christian vs atheist vs anything else) to politics (you got a pick there) to any other form of difference, we see many whole hearted action to discriminate.

I have seen the term "racist" given out by those who themselves are more "racist" than those they accuse. It is a term that is wholly intended to cause conflict and not solutions. It is no different to the word "sexism" or "sexist".

Instead of recognising that all people have value, we, as people, go out of our way to discriminate against others.
Do you ever plan to release your system for general use?

While somewhat less accessible to comp-sci hobbyists like myself, is your system privately available?
I make $400k as a software engineer, and I can tell you it's pretty rare. We're probably talking top few percent of engineers (in terms of compensation) living in a select number of areas.

I think it's possible only a few dozen companies can do this.

Actually, ANY coffee brewed in a proper machine is going to be better than keurig, even from a Dunkin Donuts. Coffee needs three things to be ok: recently roasted grounds in suffice quantity, hot enough water, and long enough brew time. You can skimp on one of those three and still get barely passable coffee. Fall short of two of those marks and the coffee is crap water. Keurig machines fail at all three. The only redeeming quality of Keurig is a convenient single serving format.

It's not any less transparent. Afaict, Alphabet Inc is the listed holding company of Google LLC and XXVI Holdings. XXVI holds the Other Bets subsidiaries that used to be Google Inc subsidiaries. Google the entity no longer has any non-Google subsidiaries so they're simplifying and streamlining Google operations by changing it into an LLC.

That depends om where in the world you live.
An underrated comment. It sounds harsh, but It's institutionalized get-rich-quick. A lot of it is the hyper-focus on efficiency. Which gets interpreted as efficiency of time, which turns to "get money back out as quickly as possible". And as people look for faster and faster ways to get money out at some point the only route/scheme that can keep up is "create an illusion of value and sell that."

And all of this is a drain for society, not a net plus. Even though you'll inevitably hear the argument "Creating an illusion of value has societal value. Obviously it does, otherwise people wouldn't pay for it." A which point you're reaching peak irony. And then you begin the inevitable arms race of smarter minds working on better ways to hide the illusions, and smarter minds on the otherside working on better ways to sniff them out. This is pretty mucb equivalent to having your best and brightest optimize better ways to predict horsetrack betting (but at least in that case if an Einstein invents an accurate weather prediction machine that value is transferable to society at large). These minds are bust develiping non-useful, non-transferrable non-useful abilities instead of becoming the next Elon Musk. It's a train wreck in slow motion, but those on the inside are so deep in it they're unable to see it.

Until now the only Alphabet subsidiary was Google Inc. The other bets were still Google Inc subsidiaries. This move brings them up a level and separates them from Google.

Until the end of the infrastructure phase at least. A lot of folks are going to get hauled off the prison, which will create new opportunities to challenge the dominant existing players. At this point the value being ascribed to the different blockchain assets is pretty arbitrary.

Yeah, I try to look past it, but we really are a bitter and angry community on average; anyone different, anyone less skilled, anyone who can be "othered", is treated with disdain by a lot of our peers.

It never stops being disappointing...though I also understand the feeling that leads to it. Some days I genuinely hate my projects users for being so utterly helpless and having bizarre mental models for how things work. As I've gotten older and, I think, kinder, I try to take a break when I feel like ranting or condescending at a person rather than helping. I don't always succeed, but I wish more people would try.
This kind of thinking is what leads to tulip bubbles. BTC has real value, but either BTC is the one asset in history which has no ceiling, or it will reach it eventually. The question is, when?
