There's the rub.

You didn't buy the operating system. You bought a license to use it. That is not a difference without distinction. Microsoft very much view it as their operating system, even though you've purchased a license to use it.

My solution is to use Linux, which has a more permissive license. I'm not sure if that will work for you, but it's nice not actually being dependent on a single vendor.

By the way, I'm not saying that it is right - just that it is what it is. You didn't buy an OS, you bought a license to use an OS. The distinction is important.

I like opinionated frameworks.

The opposite of an opinionated framework is an opinionated user-base.

You ask what should I use for X (routing, state management, HTTP requests, etc, etc) and every react developer gives you a different combination of answers, and you have no good way to figure out which combination is the best.

I much rather the framework answer those questions for me so I can focus on getting shit done and actually building the thing I want to build.

F# does not need UWP support since MS have allowed ["desktop bridge" apps](https://github.com/Microsoft/visualfsharp/issues/1096) (which may or may not signal the unofficial death of UWP...).

The .NET native compiler has some issues with handling valid tail recursion MSIL commands IIRC - they're working on it.

F# will always come in second in the MS tooling wars.

Interesting, though, to follow the track record of MS techs that come in first in their tooling wars over the last decade... Maybe being a bit slow on the uptake of the "latest and greatest" EF, or Oslo models, or Silverlight, or WPF, or WCF, or dotnetcores new project format, or UWPs new APIs isn't the worst thing if you want your solutions to be supportable in production for a while.
Hi,

(I work on the Frictionless Data specifications and tooling at Open Knowledge International.)

CSV has many, many warts. However, it is the best thing we have right now for serialising data in a way that is easily read by humans (and consumer-grade software) and machines. Libraries like our Tabulator [1] which is used under-the-hood help provide an API to deal with many of the gotcha's when dealing with the format.

They could phrase it better though. The downtime is announced as "Sundays, 12am-12pm ET". If there is, I'm not aware of any standard as to what that means.
It's a hidden way of using the passive voice, and bad for the same reasons: it (deliberately) blurs the distinction between "someone might have a problem with this" and "I have a problem with this".
I think he was mostly joking about it being for non-selfies.

Depending on exact location, the accepted angles should be slightly less than 180 degrees in front of the camera—you don't need to be anywhere near the subject, unless you got a fisheye mounted.

It's just a bit silly that the default approach wasn't RF, rather than optical, even if they put receivers on all sides of the camera. Some new cameras have BLE though, which is nice and solves most problems (although I prefer physical remotes to poorly written apps).

I'm afraid you really can't rule that out, no.
Your case is distinctly different from “identity theft.” They simply got an existing card number (by skimmg, by writing it down while holding your card, by dumping the database of some ecommerce website, etc.) They didn’t pretend to be you and ask a bank for a new line of credit. Your case is most assuredly credit card fraud and nowhere near identity theft.
Just tried it and despite being a little cluttered it's pretty good.

I took a 15-20% pay cut to move to a town that had college and high school friends. I missed out on a lot of the real bleeding edge type technical challenges that SV has and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills trying to drive change in our organization. However, I never have a problem unwinding after work and am far from burnout. Having this support structure here is probably worth that 15-20%.

Edit: I should note that I really hate mixing personal & work and that I have very few 'friendships' in the workplace that I take outside of work.

> decided on the limit after typing up a bunch of sample sentences

From what I heard, the SMS limit was actually a protocol limitation: it piggybacks on signaling messages, which have a small size limit (this is also why SMS can sometimes work even when everything else doesn't). Quoting from Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS):

"Messages are sent with the MAP MO- and MT-ForwardSM operations, whose payload length is limited by the constraints of the signaling protocol to precisely 140 bytes (140 bytes * 8 bits / byte = 1120 bits). Short messages can be encoded using a variety of alphabets: the default GSM 7-bit alphabet, the 8-bit data alphabet, and the 16-bit UCS-2 alphabet. Depending on which alphabet the subscriber has configured in the handset, this leads to the maximum individual short message sizes of 160 7-bit characters, 140 8-bit characters, or 70 16-bit characters."

Either way, "identity theft" or "credit fraud", the onus is on someone other than the corporation that let it happen. It's the victim, or the criminal, but neither of them blame the corporation with the name alone.

So I don't see any point in trying to get millions of people to change what they call it, if that's the other option.

Point taken about the API. The Data Package [1] and Table Schema [2] libraries are generally designed as low-level libraries for building higher-level applications using the specifications. goodtables-py [3] is an example of a higher-level application built on top.

Perhaps likely, but it's not as obvious as your phrasing makes it out to be.

It is common in transport timetables to use 23:59 Sunday or 00:01 Monday (in this example), or 11:59 p.m. or 12:01 a.m., to further reduce confusion.

I think this is slightly changing at Apple, and in my opinion will slowly make things much worse.

One of the first things Steve Jobs on returning to Apple did was to cull what he felt were unnecessary products, and product groups. You could argue that Apple is large enough now to have thousands of products, but what was clear is that Jobs had the defining vision and no single person can have a single defining vision of thousands of products.

To use your example you cannot create a camera division and not allow inter-group communication because you are then building products in exactly the same way as someone like Sony. You end up with disconnected systems, nothing integrates together well and in-fighting between the groups.

I remember looking for a 32" Sony TV a decade or so ago, and there were 5 or 6 different models all at slightly different price brackets and with different discounts everything became muddled. Sony of course were simply capturing every portion of the market they could, from the person who wanted the cheapest to the person who wants the best.

I'd like to see Apple re-focus, make single models of iPhone, iPad, MacBook, iMac and the Apple Watch. Stop trying to capture as much of the market as possible and just focus on a limited number of highly integrated devices.
It's just client-side CQRS/ES with re-invented terms (due to ignorance or web bubble) slapped on top of a legacy scripting language and a document markup.
I'd go a step further: F# being slightly slow on the uptake of new shiney-shiney-shiney things from MS means you're less likely to hit solutions based on dead product lines and/or tech. A slight moderation in speed to avoid wasteful oscillations.

I'm glad that the F# community uses its time making generalized cloud computing easier and more accessible and has smart data streaming solutions. I care 0% about windows platform apps, along with most of the world (given the sales and user stats).

Not to mention: since you can always use C# and VB.Net as "glue code" with F# libraries behind that, you're generally only locked out of _pure_ F# solutions if you wanna play with the newest toys.

It's bad for consultants who need 5 years experience in 3 day old tech to sell themselves. It's good business for companies trying to build value and not try to stick with technical fashion-trends for no reason.
Not a bad start at all. I've completed a lot of MOOCs in my time and have been on the content creation side for online learning as well and it's great to see another tool help with discovery. I think you should add some featured/random courses on the homepage, suggested categories would be good too. I searched "tech" to see what was on offer and got some less than desired results with many of them being about teaching with only some results there for technology based topics.

Overall good start and a useful tool. It will be good to see it developed further.
Safari 11 still has this feature! Can you believe that?! I do indeed use a simple css file that sets a sans-serif font as the default (which I prefer). It's basically just this:

> "- Span For when you want to take an array or a vector."

> How's this different from taking a pair of iterators?

Safety and (a little) convenience. If your function takes a pair of iterators, there's no way to ensure (at compile-time anyway) that both iterators are even pointing into the same array/vector. Also, spans can ensure, with bounds-checking, that only elements within a specified sub-range can be accessed.

Such bounds-enforcement is particularly important in cases like, for example, SaferCPlusPlus' "TRASectionSplitter", which is a data type that allows you to partition an array/vector/whatever into subsections that can each be safely accessed/modified concurrently from different threads. ("TRASectionSplitter" is not yet documented, but for those interested, example code can be found here[1].)

Humans selectively edit reality before accepting it
They are different, and that's fine. Personally I lean more towards the BSD/MIT style of licensing than GPL; I feel the former is "more free" from the developer's side because it doesn't tell her what she can't do with her code. The GPL forces the developer's hand (though in a way that benefits society as a whole), whereas BSD says "it's your code, do what you will".

All of that said, the GPL is perhaps one of the most important parts of the modern software ecosystem; without it we wouldn't have Linux, and FOSS as we know it wouldn't exist. The world is a better place because of the GPL.
Transcendental Meditation (TM)
Maharishi, an advocate of Transcendental Meditation defines the purpose, “The goal of Transcendental Meditation is the state of enlightenment. This means we experience that inner calmness, that quiet state of least excitation, even when we are dynamically busy.” In this Hindu tradition you sit in Lotus, internally chant a mantra, and focus on rising above the negativity.

However, to effectively learn how to practice this form of meditation, expert guidance is recommended. There is internet resources, classes, or even meditation retreats to better learn this form of meditation.
It also has a full web browser that is only used to download 'apps' like the remote control one (nice feature, but still), obviously with terrible input due to the camera being a camera. I was stunned when I saw it on my A7r.
Every time an article that is politically critical of one of US's rivals is posted on HN, there is a lot of incoming comments about how US is just as bad.

But it makes me wonder, what kind of justifications will this article get.

Roughly 1/3 of the steam library runs on Linux. Valve continues to update SteamOS, and they are still heavily involved in creating Linux drivers and middleware. Every week new games are ported, new frameworks are released with Linux support and new Linux dev game tools are created.

SteamOS succeeded in forcing Microsoft to clear up its act, and this is the main reason for Valve's investment. Their continued investment is to continue to make sure that they have a plan B. They are doing a lot of behind-the-scenes work to make the Linux gaming stack amazing. This looks "failed" from the outside because they aren't pushing the platform heavily, but it is actually a lot more beneficial that doing a big marketing push before the platform is ready.

The interesting thing with a platform like Linux is that it's not dependent on one big revenue stream to survive. Because of this, it doesn't matter if it takes years to get massive adoption because it's not burning a hole in the pocket of a company. If xbox was in the same position linux was in, you would be correct in saying that it failed, because anything less than 30% market share means gigantic losses for Microsoft which would lead to axing xbox.

PS: Atari's games run fine on Linux. Their retro emulator runs on Linux. They seem to know what they're doing.

Of course and very reasonable, but if the people hiring hides their face wereas asking the freelancers to be videotaped, well... is a red flag. Specially if in the end, nobody is hired for this job.

Maybe is because they are shy, that is a perfect valid reason to me.

Another hypothetical explanation could be that in upwork some well stablished freelancers were targetting new fresh and disperate freelancers hiring then and paying in peanuts to do a job that they then would bill (for a higher amount) to the final client.

This article is straight-up nonsense. I'm shocked that an intelligent, educated person wrote it.

Its main argument is that technology has had a net-positive effect on jobs in the past, therefore it will in the future. Here's a key excerpt:

> A rigorous study [...] found that robots did reduce the hours of lower-skilled workers—but they didn’t decrease the total hours worked by humans, and they actually boosted wages.

Many years ago, robots replaced the lowest skilled jobs. That's not a huge problem because, with enough education, those workers could move somewhere else in the economy.

But technology gets better at an exponential pace. We're already seeing robots that can perform surgery better than the best surgeons. Some of these things aren't happening in 25 years, like L5 autonomous cars -- they're happening in 5-10 years.

We're also going to see workers replaced in quantities that will absolutely dwarf those of the past. What happens when sewing is automated in the US? There are small countries which will spiral into economic collapse, and they won't have "time to prepare" because time isn't what they need to prepare. They need resources and infrastructure that they just don't have.

The dire warnings are true. There's a good reason Zuckerberg, Gates, and Musk (among many others) have all warned about this being an impending crisis.
