You only notice that because they're the ones that get you sick.

The concern is that we generate resistance in your ordinary gut flora, and then via horizontal gene transfer that resistance gets into a pathogen that's actively dangerous.
AFAIK, antibiotics are usually only prescribed prophylactically to sensitive populations or for apparent viral infections with a particularly elevated risk (with frequency or severity) from secondary infection.
I see. It is interesting to see the comparison of these two engines besides languages support. So far the main advantage for me for Atomic is its stable support of C++ and C# languages compared to Godot's dynamically typed scripting language.
We use Travis for Mac & Linux builds of OSS projects (e.g., https://www.telepresence.io). What's frustrating is that even the paid service for Mac is just as bad. We're on the East Coast, so we can use Travis for Mac in the morning, but it's terrible by lunchtime.

Fun fact: before Travis had multi-stage builds, we were able to get multi-stage builds in Travis by using the fact that mac builds were ALWAYS slower than Linux. So we could have our Linux builds create artifacts that were then used by Mac builds ...
I once plotted the TSPDT Top 1000 movies by year. That's an all-time ranking voted by critics. The distribution plot peaks around the 1970s and declines since then. For one, post-war European cinema was really great and influenced the American industry.

Now all major movies originate in the same place. The last fresh blood had come mostly from Latin America, Mexico in particular.

And the place for experiments changed. Now it's TV series. If the concept works, they make another season. Two-hour feature films are reserved for proven concepts. For moviegoers, it turns to be more like a social experience, not an arty one.
After a bit of experimentation, this seems to work to create a letterbox (really pillarbox) effect, as long as you don't add their new viewport-fit property.

Well, looks like there is a price trying to save cash by trying to make a sequel to everything (so you don't have to re-create characters, some sets, audiences...)
Yea, but the NSA doesn't man the borders, and nothing gives them the right to do that (as of now).

Sounds like $14M is a stretch if you have scaling problems. That will come out in due diligence.

But there will be more options that are immediately apparent, been there before.
A chaplain is a member of the clergy that's attached to a chapel (hence "chaplain") or organization. The organization isn't necessarily military. Other examples include both branches of the US Congress, hospitals, and universities.
I've spent my entire life in high-tech in Silicon Valley. The techniques being discussed to hide cash are integral to Silicon Valley companies - and they definitely impact decisions at every level of the organization. It is naive to believe that these discussions are somehow unrelated to our lives in technical positions (or our careers and the decisions of the executives over us.)
Of course it wouldn't be the same, but it would be great if someone made a software emulator for this. It's the sort of thing that would be a lot of fun to play around with in a web browser.

How to Help an Employee Who Rubs People the Wrong Way
Surely the passport is a sufficient signal. Chances are if you have a fake one, you aren't likely to keep incriminating data on your phne, like your actual facebook profile.
And what happened when two processes wrote to that file? And what if they where each in a different sample rate? ....
I wouldn't say it's lazy, but it is low risk high reward. If you make a movie of an already popular thing, people who like the popular thing will go watch it.

Making a sequel of that thing means only the people who watched [AND LIKED] the first thing will watch the second one, also ensuring top tier ratings, making more people want to see what makes it so great.

Having original movies is a true blessing; but sequels, remakes, novel and comic book movies are true "office box smashes" with very, very little to risk.

Suggestion: I don't know if it's just Safari on the Mac or not but I didn't get any sound from the three videos on the page. It was strange for a music app to not have sound in the videos. Maybe a technical glitch on my machine?
What a dumb response. Yes, this happened. And nothing that is currently inconveniencing millions would have made a shred of a difference there. This has been beaten to death for over 15 years. Cockpit doorlocks and passengers being more willing to actively resist hijackers is what made the difference. Border searches on incoming (not domestic) flights not so much, especially not of electronics data as well as personal belongings.

Overreaction is exactly what caused those Islamist terrorists to be able to credibly claim they not only won that particular battle but managed to get their enemy to continuously score own goals ever since.

The launch cycle is usually about 6 months from signature to first user onboarding. We expect it will take about 12 months to get full organization saturation. We've looked at upfront pricing, but it has been hard to get for a new budget-line product.
You should pick up the domain you're programming in. Like when I was working on a product for the construction industry, I knew all about how certain parts of it worked. I knew all the terms and insider slang and quite a few of the problems they face because I built those things for them. There were plenty of problems I heard about that our product wasn't aimed at.

When I was working for the credit industry, and that was only for 2 months, again I picked up a lot of the terms, asked questions about how the debt buying companies works, how were the banks using the information we gave them, how the debt relief system in the uk works, looked up our clients to find out what they do, ask the customer support team what they do, etc.

Now I'm working making tools for the restaurant business, etc., etc.

One of the things I've noticed is that most other programmers don't. Because they don't talk to the sales people. They don't talk to customers. They don't talk to the consultants. They don't ask questions about why they're implementing something. They don't ask how their product is used.

You have to ask yourself, if you're not picking up problems in the domain you're presently working on, why would you if you'd worked anywhere else?
> I'd rather it be closer to "minimum usable"

The definition is for what is available. It explicitly means that if a community literally has no 25 Mbps option, that ISPs aren't doing a good enough job with the millions they get in tax dollars. Are you really OK with a significant population of Americans being limited to the absolute bare-minimum?
I would go to see movie, if there would movie that I would be interested to see. Crickets,nothing, just sameness I have already seen hundreds times or comics/star wars or other old franchise I never cared about.
I cannot personally do so, but I know who can and almost certainly will. The 'This Week In Virology' podcast. It's run by the head of the Columbia University virology department and a few other respected researchers in the field and is an absolutely phenomenal resource whenever there is news about virology. It doesn't look like they've covered this yet (too new) but I expect it to feature large in their next episode. If you're interested in a real technical dive into the topic, that is the place to go.

(Related personal anecdote and why I recommend them so highly: I'd been listening to them for awhile, then a research paper came out showing a possible link between Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and XMRV in mice. People online had taken the paper and went crazy with it and some people were finding sources for murine (mouse) cancer drugs and dosing themselves with it in hopes of curing their CFS. They went through the paper and recognized the researcher and lab who wrote it. And noted that the lab had previously published XMRV research. XMRV is apparently remarkably difficult to eliminate contamination from. Basically if a lab has ever worked with it, you have to burn down the lab and build anew if you want to be sure it isn't around. So they advocated skepticism and said wait for independent verification before getting too worked up. A couple months later, the original paper was retracted as the researchers announced no other lab could reproduce their findings and it was down to XMRV contamination of their samples. That is the kind of thing you only get when you're listening to bona fide experts in their field and it blew my mind.
IIRC the c backend for llvm was deprecated quite a while ago
That's really cool! I'd like to build something like that One Of These Days, when I have more free time.

Also gives you the point - if one guy can build a receiver on his own... I mean, I don't want to make it easy for rogue nations and terrorist groups to get ICBM-mounted nuclear weapons, but with the difficulty of building and testing the missiles and bombs, it seems a little silly to expect restricting GPS receivers to accomplish anything.
> 3. Unknown, slowly drifting ionospheric delay.

Iono delay is typically corrected by using a dual-frequency receiver so that it can be calculated directly via difference in arrival times of the time pulse on each frequency. L2C can help here.

"functionality" in this case means APIs. WASM won't have any APIs that JS doesn't already have. So "conservative" means "just a few APIs", not "just communication with code in an already battle-proven VM". And AFAIK there are no plans for "loading and authenticating signed code" in WASM. It's always untrusted unless you run it with a runtime that provides the privileged APIs (such as node.js). Java always had both unprivileged and privileged APIs in the same place.
Uh, yeah, why would you? You can easily delete a word at a time and then type in what you wanted instead.
How to Build a Boba Tea Shop Finder with Python, Google Maps and GeoJSON
A lot of older homes in Seattle have a separate entry way/tiny porch that can be locked. When I was looking I didn't really understand the utility, but this would make a lot of sense. I don't think I'd be comfortable letting someone into my house to put away groceries, but I am a little paranoid on that stuff, plus having dogs makes it a tough proposition.
Package delivery air lock system
Every single feature someone accepts into a code-base comes at a cost. That feature needs to be reviewed, tested and above all maintained and deal with any possible bugs that might arise from it. Especially open source developers only have limited amounts of time to spend on something. Investing time in this feature means not being able to invest time in something else.

Accepting a feature that a few people might use, hidden away somewhere in the advanced configurations, might very well not be worth the trade-off to them, even though you personally find the feature valuable. It has nothing to do with a walled garden.

Ultimately, if this is so important to you, you have the choice to fork and maintain it yourself and carry that cost. That'll most likely be a lot of work, especially if you want to keep in sync with upstream. But it might give you a better understanding of and appreciation for the tremendous amount of work and effort that goes into projects like these. Work that goes largely unpaid.
As a daily Firefox for Android user, I have little idea about what's so awful about the scrolling behavior. Works like any other app for me.

There are two sides to every story, and "reasonable" is an interesting word choice. A driver who knows their own limitations, and slows down to be safely within them IS being reasonable. A more skilled driver who feels stifled by those speeds would be reasonable if they watched for passing lanes, and used them appropriately.
This is more or less true. The pharmacy company Burroughs Wellcome is largely blamed for pathologizing "genital herpes" starting in the late 70s.

So he basically works effectively 6 hours a day, every day of the week? If he wouldn't work for weekends that would be 30 something hours a week, which is for the most people a pretty relaxed work week. Plus he works on his own project from home (no clients to talk to, no deadlines, no distractions by co-workers, full control of the environment). Not to say that advices author gives are bad in any way, all of them are great and worth reading, just that the whole thing isn't as epic as the title suggests.
Out of curiosity, is there anybody in the last couple of years who would say that reading the source of websites was a significant component of their learning the web? (By "significant", I don't mean "primary" but I do mean more than "I once popped open a bit of source and found a method I didn't know existed".) Even in 1997, I was using free documentation, not reading websites, which even before minification and such were still often quite ugly to read.

b) shipping the new macbook pro with the touch bar

c) shipping the new macbook pro with that keyboard that just breaks down when used outside of a cleanroom

d) the whole luxuary/jewelry transition of the company
That is what they said, but look at the screenshot of the unmodified website. It looks terrible. They should have filled it with black.
Yeah, and V8, so we could just write JavaScript again and wouldn't have to deal with WASM. With a bit support from WASM and a few tweaks to V8 it could run near native JavaScript speed. Let's call it JavaScript paravirtualization.
I've reluctantly given up on Tab Groups, but losing VimFX and FireGestures is still causing me pain.

I do a lot of blogging. For me, it works best to find an intrinsic motivator. (But do always keep in mind that it is posted publicly. Writing for yourself in public is an interesting challenge.)

My most successful blog started as a means to keep track of information for myself. I abandoned it for a time, but it was getting organic traffic. I resumed developing it.

Blog is short for Web Log. Blogs began as personal journals or diaries that were publicly shared. If you want to track certain kinds of information for yourself, like a food journal in support of pursuing healthier eating, that can have intrinsic value without an audience. If it attracts an audience, cool. But it does not require one to be valuable to you.
Well, I guess now I've been accused of it four or five times. However, I claim most strenuously and in the strongest terms that zolthrowaway did not pay me to post this. I claim it to be so with downright suspicious strength and vigorousness, in fact. Believe me.

To be completely honest I work 2 - 100 hour weeks per month. It is tough, but I work much better in bursts.

I then basically take a 2 week vacation, but nobody knows about it except me. I schedule good chunks of Git Commits to push during my off weeks.

In the off time, I still respond to email, and occasionally take meetings. Which might take an hour per day. But I don't do anything productive. I play a lot of Nintendo.

I think this style would work better for lots of people, but regular 9-5 companies would never accept it. Its basically how college students work during Finals week, then take a nice break. I always wonder how many other people are out there like me? I think there has to be some.
Well, you could collect a huge amount of light and send it through to the phone sensor; that would have the same effect. But you're talking a very big lens. The pro DSLRs have a 35mm sensor - that's ~865mm². The iphone's is what, 60mm²? Thereabouts?

No matter how you cut it, that's generously 1/10th the sensing area/capacity (same thing). And it's not like the sensor tech in the iPhone will be 10x more efficient than contemporary DSLRs - iPhone sensors are made by sony, who will use the same tech in their own cameras. To get comparable light cell for cell into that you'll need a lens with 10x more light ingress, and sophisticated optics to focus it precisely down to a tiny half-square-centimetre. This lens would be larger, heavier and more expensive than the phone itself. Think "large can of tomatoes" size.

Not saying it's impossible. Mobile phone companies have pulled off some amazing advances and I have no idea what tricks might be up their sleeves. But for now, no mobile even touches full frame DSLRs in low light, and it doesn't seem like an easy hill to climb.

You won't, but what about the next guy? That's always the way these things go. Someone creates a nice simple service and gets a ton of traffice, but gets bored with running it and moves on. Next guy goes "This site looks like it is from 1997, and it's barely monetized at all, I've got this book on web design that will make it look 1000% better by getting rid of all of these ugly words and making it so beautifully minimal."
I sure hope all of this turns out to be a joke. Or at least that sane people will realize that it's maybe fun for a parlor trick (do people say that anymore?), but not serious science.
