Your upload is my download. A user uploads an HTTP request to a server, and the server uploads an HTTP response to the user. Of course that sounds unnatural compared to the user downloading the HTTP response. But the difference between upload/download is purely semantic and only distinguishes the intent of the user. Regardless of terms used, data flows in one direction, then back in another. The only distinguishing factor is its direction and whether or not both sides can establish the initial connection. So in that sense, a server uploads data to the user, who implicitly permitted the sever to do so when establishing the connection.

This misappropriation of technical language to advance a policy goal is revealing in that it shows the concept is fundamentally unlegislatable and therefore unenforceable, or worse, arbitrarily enforceable.

This is just part of an ongoing legislative pattern of the past 5-10 years. My reading of its trajectory is that regulatory regimes will eventually require licenses to run any service behind public IP addresses, to register domain names, and to advertise BGP routes or run public DNS resolvers. When coupled with centralization of inbound routing infrastructure (transatlantic fiber) and/or increased regulation of IP transit companies, this licensing legislature will work effectively.

World's Largest Chocolate Maker Is Committing $1B To Fight Climate Change
Agree.
Give the process time. Many people are not very patient with trying to explain things that they consider obvious due to their experience in an area. This slows things down for someone who's ramping up. But over time, you piece things together and get to the bottom of things.

Also, if you ask a question and it gets shot down, you learn something from that too. You have to figure where the edge is before people start complaining.
To add a couple more things: Oracle has been developing ZFS sans open source for the past few years as well, which means they've stopping caring about OpenZFS and/or have lost the right to.

Canonical, Debian and SFLC have really done with right thing by distributing ZFS on Linux, using AFS as a precedence. I hope more merging like this can happen in open source in the future.

I think it's OK for OS updates to affect it. Ideally you'd measure both, but measuring it with updates is the more useful of the two. The fact that security fixes don't get backported very much essentially makes updates mandatory, and as a user it doesn't really matter whether slowdowns come from hardware or software. The main thing is to confirm whether the devices really do get slower, or whether it's all a matter of rose-colored nostalgia glasses.
And we will probably continue to do so. Life expectancy in many countries is likely to rise so that further automation can help to keep the retirement age. Most people in Europe today retire at around the same age as 100 years ago (~65) while living much longer.

But still, we don't see joblessness or masses of people unqualified for the market. Faster developments will lead to many having 3-5 careers over their life time but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing.
That is what I do in the situation where someone is following close behind. Again, reflexive, not conscious...would be hard for me to change it. To be fair, I don't really know the reason for the occasional sneer. But it is almost never a male sneering.

Its kind of sad to see what has become of IBM. It is now just another consulting shop that wants to plant a slew of 3-400/hr consultants to run projects. The big consulting companies best trick was to convince those in the enterprise that hiring a boutique consulting shop is "risky" and that a big 4/5 consulting company is a "safe" option even though it is orders of magnitude more expensive and not necessarily better, and in some cases worse when it comes to specialized systems.

Is there an international version of this? (I'm in Australia.)

I maintain multiple cards with my bank to get a poor facsimile of this.
Yes, sorry about that, I realized it when reading your answer, that's why I answered, to add context.

France is hiding behind terrorism to prevent parents to do homeschooling, arguing it will help radicalization.

Of course it's completely irrelevant, but governments hate to lose control on people.
Sure, I wasn't arguing that they're mutually exclusive. I was referring to the way that e.g. Google would refer to "experienced" or "industry" candidates.
Well, that shows me! ;-) Thank you, some of these metals I have never heard of.
Once again, it's not his voting record. He donated to a campaign that vilified gays.[1] It was publicized years before he was offered the CEO role and had already made gay Mozilla employees uncomfortable[2], but it's obviously different working with somebody who vilifies you vs. working for somebody who does.

The gay employees of Mozilla were understandably upset when he became CEO, and since the Bay Area in general is pretty progressive, many other employees were also upset. They were looking for new employers.

I gave an anti-miscegenation analogy earlier. How is this different from a CEO making a public donation to The Daily Stormer (perhaps pointing to the stories of Judas and Cain as justification) and the Jewish and non-white employees and their allies not wanting to work for him? You cannot take public action to vilify your employees and deny them civil rights and expect them to keep working for you.

>instead, it tries to trick the reviewers, attempting to determine if it’s landed on a Car and Driver test-lot, and then switching into a high-pollution, high-fuel-efficiency mode.

This has actually been the case for some time. The car magazine wouldn't just go borrow a car, they would get one directly from the manufacturer. And the manufacturer would send a ringer, a vehicle with an EPA test-exemption that doesn't have to comply with any emissions regulations.

I suppose the era of Youtube car review channels is bringing that method to a close though.
Exactly. If you build an async project, but do the same things than WSGI frameworks we gain nothing. We already have perfectly capable and productive frameworks. We use them everyday, we make money with it. They work.

Async allows to maintain low latency permanent connections between each clients, being it a web page, a task queue, a server worker, etc. We finally can have it all connected. We can broadcast setting changes, propagate cache invalidation, push action notifications, update task completions to subscribers, allow everybody to react to stuff on the file system or the db instead of polling, all in soft real time.

The potential is amazing.

We all can do HTTP req / resp. The question now is: how good the tooling around this cycle is.
Not really (but then I never asked random people to multiply for me :) ).

But I can kinda understand why, you almost never have to multiply 9*7 by hand. If you're doing algebra or any symbolic calculations you rarely use digits other than 0-4.

In real world Benford's law + usual rounding greatly reduces the need to multiply by 7 or 9 (or 8 for that matter).

Wasn't the danger of encountering devices (somehow) programmed to act differently in a regulator's test regime than in daily use one of the points made in the article? (Actually achieving this in the gas pump situation is left as an exercise to the reader.)
Hell yes, Jacques Fresco and his project Venus definitely fit to this category. They contributes by educating the world the ill effects of current monetary system infers we all are circling our way slowly to destruction. He calls for change to the resource based economy and envisions a great future. It is not an Utopia as many think so. But it is feasible when we push our way to it collectively.

In theory the IFE and avionics are separated by firewalls. Some things like the PA system are often on the IFE side, and hacks for panasonic IFE have included impersonating the pilot announcements and stuff.

In practice I wouldn't expect the firewalls to be particularly well tested or complete or configured correctly, and it may be possible for an attacker to DOS the firewall and impact the other systems, and possible for the attacker to penetrate the firewall and so on.
oooh, I wonder if that's why I sometimes get cramps while I sleep. I feel like if I stretch my legs too much while in bed, I could randomly get a cramp.
This is correct.

Another common terminology is that a vector is a 1-form, and a bi-vector a 2-form. The wedge of an n-form and an m-form is an (n+m) form, which generalises the cross product.

To define the dot product you need the notion of a Hodge star, which maps an n-form to a (D-n)-form where D is the dimension of the ambient space.

If you learned linear algebra, or especially vector calculus, without learning these things then you were cheated out of the best bits, and I encourage you to rectify this! The general picture is actually clearer than the 2D or 3D one usually taught, in which some things happen to co-incide.

There is a book like this for Ruby (on Rails?) which I believe is the inspiration for this Erlang book. I just can't seem to find it at the moment.

I've found a lot of the advice useful, but it's important to remember the the year of hustle is also an extended sales pitch for the 30x500 course.

And that is absolutely, totally fine. 30x500 has worked successfully for lots of people. And it's definitely one way to build an audience and sell a product.

Just remember that it's not the only way. The material put out by 30x500 students is good, but the way they go about selling it seems to follow a formula that really turns me away. There are a few instances where I would've purchased someone's e-book, but the almost-but-not-quite-useful e-bombs and the smarmy long form sales copy turned made me decide against purchasing. This isn't meant as a scathing indictment of 30x500; just as a note that no marketing method will endear you to every potential customer.

So as you get the year of hustle e-mails, keep in mind that a lot of the lessons are the same ones you'll learn in a college Marketing 101 course. I finished a business degree before I came to my senses and became a developer, and the one thing I remember most strongly from the marketing courses I took is that market research might just be the most important part of marketing, because you do it before you start working on your product to determine whether the product is viable (or you do it to survey the market to find ideas for viable products).

To sum it up: I think Year of Hustle provides valuable advice, but you might find it useful to pick up a used marketing textbook as well. The bits of advice in YoH are specific instances of more general concepts. As you read through YoH, try to identify the general concepts it is applying. You might just come up with some creative marketing that hits your target market more effectively than the specific advice in YoH.

I realize that marketing is a huge topic, though. It might be easier to try to just apply the advice in YoH before trying to generalize it. And that's a completely valid approach. Just keep in mind that it attracts some members of your target market while potentially alienating others. But the same is probably true for any marketing technique you choose.

Best of luck in your marketing and product endeavours! :)
> Has there ever been an effort to ban employer sponsored health care?

Yes, there is, but from the other direction from the one you are interested in (universal single-payer).

There's also been efforts to eliminate tax and other incentives and mandates that make employer-sponsored care common, which is probably closer to what you are looking for, though the people backing that would generally be ideologically opposed to prohibiting employer-sponsored health care.

> I bet it would be a much bigger issue for people

The reason health care is a major political issue across the spectrum is that it's costs are already a giant issue for most people. There's disagreement on what to do about it, not on whether it's a big issue that people feel significant impact from. Your solving a non-problem by looking for ways to make it a big issue.

Optoisolators are a prolific and an extremely cheap electrical component that performs the "air-gap" functionality.
Having done big and small consulting work, I think part of the issue is that waterfall still has quite a large buy-in. Smaller shops tend to go more agile, but when you have a team of analysts chomping at the bit to document your processes and say "yes, we can do this" (regardless of if they actually can) that builds confidence.

And that confidence is what moves the project forward, until the customer sees dates slipping, at which point it's too late.

It is fairly outdated. It says it was last updated in December 2014, but I'm not sure it's had much added.

You're correct about systemctl. If you do:

ls -lh /sbin | grep systemctl

you can see that `poweroff` and other commands are symlinks to `/sbin/systemctl`. The systemctl code shows it checks the name it's called with and chooses an action based on that:

The difference IMO is that gold has intrinsic value by virtue of being rare and shiny. I guess the idea is that even if civilization collapses and we return to the stone age gold will still be valuable. Since the use of gold as currency can be traced back at least to 600BCE[1] there's a good reason to believe that.

Bitcoins however doesn't really have a intrinsic "rest" value. Anybody can (and many do) spawn a new blockchain out of thin air. Ironically Bitcoin is entirely about trust at the core. The trust that the other participants in the bitcoin economy won't lose faith in the currency and dump it. That trust is the only thing that gives the coin value.

Inflamation is the response of the immune system to chemical signals sent by the cells of damaged tissue.

Depending on the affected organ, the consequences are different. However, the mechanism at the cellular level is mostly identical. Inflamed tissue releases messengers in the blood stream that can be detected (e.g. CRP, orosomucoid, etc...).

The process is generally beneficial (helps fight a threat) but it can be triggered by false positives, and the activation of the immune system can dammage healthy tissue.

Too much inflammation as a reaction to a real threat can also be problematic, hence the various anti-inflamatory treatments (NSAID/corticosteroids).

In this case, prossibly nocive inflammation was discovered in the hypothalamus, the part of the brain that regulates appetite among many other vegetative functions.
