Is this being professionally assembled? We make all new footprints to IPC standards and take into account the tolerances of the lead width, toe, etc. And these differ between manufacturers even for something as simple as an 8-pin SOIC. If you're just hand soldering, then it may not be a concern to get this specific.

>There is dynamic and then there is crap dynamic. (...) There is crap static too.

Excellent. My point exactly. I have no fear of using a static or dynamic language, as long as it is a good implementation of a statically (or dynamically) typed language.
All of this relies on the rest of the system playing well and only using POSIX rename() to replace files. So to do it safely, you need to make a swap file copy (a'la vim) to do the paginated mmap() + page-replacement cache on the swap file.

However, often times you also need to do encoding conversion, and you can do this at the same time as the copy to the swap file.

If you detect you have btrfs/xfs w/ reflink support, and no encoding change is necessary, you can cheat and just do a CoW of the underlying block ranges and let the FS garbage collect it afterwards (just unlink() your reflink copy immediately).

Another convenient thing you can do with the swap file, is use the tail of it for a write ahead log of the changes in a piecetable and crash recovery.
Erm, there's a misunderstanding here. I'm saying they cannot be considered as being serious about protecting privacy because they operate from a country that has anti-privacy law.

If they did move to a country with privacy protection then privacy protection could be considered possible.
Commure, Inc. | San Francisco, CA | Multiple positions | Fulltime | ONSITE

We are a stealth startup working to fix the software doctors use. If you have seen what physicians have to put up with, it's a bad version of the 90s, and makes medical care worse and more expensive for everyone. We are a group of previously successful engineers and entrepreneurs (MIT, Dartmouth, Datapower, Stripe, Salesforce, etc) and senior doctors (John Hopkins, UCSF, etc) who are determined to finally fix this.

Compensation: market salary & equity -- we are well funded.

Stack: includes Rust, React and Node. We will also be solving some very interesting problems in the areas of APIs, domain-specific machine-learning and fine-grained application security.

Please email jobs@commure.com and mention "[HN]" in the subject line.
Tom Petty was truly an amazing musician, songwriter and guitarist.

It's said that when he played live he used a different guitar for every song to get the exact perfect sound for each song.

Sort of like how a sommelier can tell the difference between wines that most folks think taste the same, he was like that with guitars and their sound.
SamKnows | Tests and Metrics Engineer | London, UK | Onsite, full-time

SamKnows is currently recruiting for a full-time developer to join its team in London. Our company provides network measurement hardware, software and services to telecoms regulators and ISPs worldwide. We build own hardware measurement probes, which we've distributed to more than 100,000 users so far. Naturally, these all run OpenWrt (and now LEDE).

We write our measurements in C and C++, covering a wide array of QoS and QoE performance metrics (far more than just speed tests!). We collect and analyse hundreds of millions of measurements per day using this infrastructure.

The role would primarily involve developing measurement software, and also working on the probes themselves. We are also increasingly embedding our measurements in ISPs' existing CPE, so familiarity of working in embedded Linux environments is a huge benefit.

For more information and to apply please see https://www.samknows.com/company/careers/developer-test-metr...

If you have any questions, feel free to email me directly at sam@samknows.com

We're growing and looking for high performance athletes to join our front end team to deliver graphical insights into our customers' automated data mobility and migration across their entire data infrastructure. We're tackling a big problem, and after we're done companies won't be willing to manage their data in the same manual way again.

Your responsibilities will include implementing new features, driving codebase improvements, and working across teams to ensure the timely and tested delivery of core products. We've just switched to a React / Redux based codebase, and we're looking for superstars in modern JavaScript development to power up our transition and growth.

Primary Data intelligently automates the flow of data to ensure the right data is in the right place at the right time across enterprise infrastructure and the cloud. We have really experienced senior leadership that counts the likes of former founders of fusion.io and Steve Wozniak, and we are at an inflection point in our growth. We have a laid back office in Los Altos, California, right near Stanford and Palo Alto, and we have no problems with you working at home for a few days out of every week - we firmly believe in productivity and eliminating wasteful distractions. You'd get to work with some of the brightest minds in enterprise software working to fundamentally change the way companies house and manage aging data!

PS. We are also always on the lookout for astounding backend people - check out our careers page on our site!

If your goal is a headphone amplifier/equalizer - I would recommend "The Art of Electronics" its much bigger but covers electronic design and gives you example circuits and parts which is what you're looking for.

It appears overwhelming but if you approach it with the same passion and process with which you tackled software, you'll be fine.
In an ideal world, scientists would be judged solely on their study design and execution without considering the outcome. But that takes a lot of effort. It's much easier to judge based on the results that the scientist achieved ("I discovered the priming effect"). We remember Watson and Crick, and forget many other scientists who worked just as hard.

I'm not claiming he was right, just that his system is what cryptocurrency is building.

But I do think it makes at least as much intuitive sense to say "we can make as much money as we need, and competition between currencies will limit inflation" as to say "we won't have enough money so the economy won't grow."
Is there a reason to choose millis as the granularity instead of micros or nanos? Is it because there's a stronger expectation of machines in a cluster agreeing on what milli it is "now" vs the other granularities?

I'm kind of thrown by the idea of putting the timestamp / stream-id in the XADD command, I would have thought the server would assign that, since one of the strengths of redis's single threaded nature is consistency: what's in redis is the truth. If you allow clients to specify timestamp, what happens when ntpd isn't running on some? I probably misread or misunderstood it.

Could you allow specifying `$` as the timestamp to tell the server you want it to use whatever it thinks the current time is as the timestamp / stream-id?

Curious your thoughts on the rate of acceleration of:

- the technology required to utilize stem cells for therapies

vs

- the technology required to generate stem cells from somatic cells

To my mind those two technologies likely overlap significantly. I am curious where do you see the most likely divergence. Or, in other words, what particular new technologies would you like to see come to fruition that would enable banked stem cells to be put to immediate uses without the requirement for a full-blown arbitrary genetic manipulation suite.
Curious as to how YC has done in comparison to other incubators? Any benchmarks available?
Net neutrality repeal: What could it mean for business?
Ah yeah you're both right, my bad. Didn't read carefully enough. Definitely not a course to learn basics of electronics engineering.
> But it is nearsighted because even if the price of your home goes up, you cannot sell it because you need a place to live. It is a lose/lose. It takes away a significant part of purchasing power. Money that could be spent on shopping, entertainment, etc is used to pay the mortgage.

It is forced savings for retirement. Most people downsize once their kids leave home, cashing out their equity (as long as you haven't cash out refi'd your home to buy cars and vacations).
SQL Server 2017 available for download
Pre-registration of studies is an interesting concept in that regard (also briefly mentioned in the article), where researchers can submit their study design and goals to a journal before conducting the study. It will then be accepted or rejected for publication based on the study design etc., not on the eventual outcome (as long as the study was actually conducted as promised and with care, of course).

The idea is probably only applicable to a small subset of scientific work (not good for exploratory and very novel stuff, for instance), but in certain specific areas it might make publication of negative results a more viable path for scientists because they don't have to fear that their idea was bad or they seem incompetent because of a negative result. (Since their design was accepted, at least some other people thought it was a good idea too.)
Thanks!

I don't really follow. Your examples seem like weird or poorly thought out experiments (well, surveys, not experiments), not anything to do with significance testing.

If I wanted to see if native Hawaiians are citizens and didn't have access to law, real data, anything like that, I'd sample from the population of Hawaiians, not citizens as a whole, and then regardless of the null hypothesis being "are citizens" or "aren't citizens" I think the results would be overwhelmingly one-sided enough to work out. And the South Africa example is asking about 1 single person? That not a question of science, then, just a question?

US military expenditure is a stealth job creation program. It's politically untenable for any American government to announce a $1.5 trillion dollar scheme to create 100,000 skilled manufacturing jobs in the rust belt, unless that scheme produces a fighter aircraft. It's a woefully inefficient job creation scheme, but that inefficiency means that a lot of different stakeholders can get a slice of the pie.

Everyone would be better off if that money was spent on clean energy or healthcare, but the American electorate are far more willing to sign a blank check for defence.

Not to detract from YC's adherence to good principles... but I think this post was written now. Just putting it out there because if seems from your comment that you're assuming these were written in the past, which is what I assumed before reading the article and seeing the "October 2017" date on it.

Would love to be told I'm wrong if I'm misunderstanding the publication date...

Edit (based on comments): I agree that this accurately summarizes YC's principles as stated over the years. I was just mentioning/wondering whether this specific list was ever put in this form before. I absolutely think this is a good list of principles and it has guided YC, if not explicitly in this form all these years, certainly in spirit.
I've come to a point where I really think no company will ever have even competent InfoSec practices. I've worked at a fortune-100 (terrible due to scale probably), a small InfoSec consulting firm (terrible due to lack of scale and non-caring leadership as ironic as it is) and now a global firm (terrible due to scale and poor training).

I have no idea how to solve this problem, it seems impossible.
Pretty good take on this for a general-purpose audience. I was ready to complain about this line for implying P(H|D) (rather than P(D|H_0), as actually occurs):

> The researcher basically asks: How ridiculous would it be to believe the null hypothesis is the true answer, given the results we’re seeing?

but I think they (indirectly) correct it pretty well in the next section.

It isn't published yet, but Gelman and co's recent piece on this seems like an important contribution to the debate [1]. Short version: take the p-value down from it's pedestal, abandon the dichotomous view of is/isn't significant, and consider it with all the other evidence and data.
