There are all sorts of striking phenomena out there that haven't been looked at. I will never forget the first time i looked down a microscope and saw a polygonal actin network in a cell. Like this stuff on the left, with the cells on the right being more normal:

http://iovs.arvojournals.org/data/Journals/IOVS/933248/m_z7g...

They aren't in any textbook. My supervisor, a cytoskeleton biologist of many years' experience, had never seen them before. Nobody seemed to know what they were, or why they had decided to form in my cells that day. I tracked down a few mentions of them in the literature, stretching back decades, but this is the only paper i've found that really looks at them with modern tools:

Perhaps the most interesting thing was that nobody seemed very interested in investigating them. They weren't related to anyone's existing research programmes, so they weren't worth it!
He's right though, because the name was Achmed and not Joe or Robert, people automatically assumed he was being racist which is ironic because as he pointed out the but is specifically "add Honest Achmed's root certificate" and it is in fact about "Honest Achmed's Used Cars and Certficiates". Was the original bug filing racist, maybe, maybe not. So in this instance, someone let their emotions jump the gun and were quick to accuse racism. The only way to stop the behavior is to identify it. Considering the whole "PC" movement prevalent these days, his response was tactful and relates to the original story which is more than those than those accusing racism could claim.
Yes, Groove Music (by default installed, too) plays those.
Doesn't change the fact the idea itself is worthless, if no one acted on the idea they wouldn't have lost any money. Just as if the idea is brilliant, it's the execution that makes the money. It's quite possible bad execution ruins a good idea as well.
Your point is good, but it's important to understand the differences in attitudes between them. Physics as a discipline seeks evidence and theories with greater explanatory power. Economics as a discipline seems content to favor modeling over data.

Both have useful abstractions and simplifications, but only one stops short of further investigation.

>I wish one implementation triumphed over the others

That would be terrible. Part of the nice things of CL is that you can choose the implementation according to what you need. For example ECL if you want to embed your lisp code with C code. ABCL if you really need to call lots of Java libs (or have Java code call your Lisp code easily), and so on. We're talking about mature, proven, tested implementations.

If one implementation triumphed over others, over time we'd be in a position similar to, say, Python or Clojure, where there is only one or two implementations, besides some experimental implementations, and nothing else.

Something that needs to be mentioned is that CL is truly standardized; if you have a code written in Common Lisp, chances are it will compile straight away on most of the implementations (ECL, ABCL, SBCL, etc), with no change needed. So having many implementations does not mean there is any kind of fragmentation in the language.

>and CL progressed beyond its ANSI standard.

CL is one of the most extensible languages out there, so it has already progressed way beyond the ANSI standard. The standard doesn't need modification to support new things. There are already many libraries giving you things that are not in the standard (like sockets or threads) but in a portable and standarized way.

You'd be right to dispute he's a nihilist. Out of all the characters, he's probably the least aware of the nature of his own existence, yet he's also the most well-adjusted to a life motivated by money and poontang. The character could still be seen in a nihilistic light because, despite his own moralism, he frequently contradicts himself and often ends up in a better place for it. If one were to read too far into what the writers were intending with Kramer, they might assume that he is meant to be a commentary on morality since his morals don't consistently serve him or the other characters, and Jerry can easily spot contradictions in Kramer's reasoning.
Haha, sorry about that! Didn't know HP started with calculators either! (I know they've all had these products, but I had no idea these are how they started.)
To call this "the best gaming CPU you can buy" is a bit disingenuous. A $379 processor which can turbo boost up to 4.7GHz is pretty impressive. It is however still limited to 16 PCIe lanes which means you get one GPU at PCIe 3.0 x16 and are very limited in the additional expansion cards you can run. Sure there are additional lanes for a single NVMe disk and the motherboard's onboard components but:

Want to add a PCIe x1 wifi card? Your GPU now runs at 8x.
Want to add a second GPU? They're both running at 8x.

This is a pretty solid processor for the most common use case of single high end GPU + everything else built into the motherboard (including wifi) but that is far from the "best gaming CPU you can buy." I have friends who are going threadripper for the additional PCIe lanes, I know it belongs in a different price class but this is about the best CPU not the most cost efficient -- I suspect this processor would not land in the best bang for buck category either.
Automating SQL Caching for Amazon ElastiCache and Amazon RDS
Personally, I think our current trend is very useful and should be pursued to the most extreme level:

1. Assume that attacker will get data X

2. Make what you keep in data X as useless and uninteresting as possible.

3. Hash data X with the most expensive and safest hash possible.

4. If you really can't do steps #2 and #3, warn your customers about what you are keeping and encrypt the heck out of everything.
That just defines what relational is, it doesn't prescribe it as a best practice. There are use cases where its ill advised, like EAV.
If you are buying a CPU for gaming you would be better off with i5-8400 which is half the price and performs equally well in most games. Oh, and it comes with a stock cooler (8600k and 8700k don't).
We're definitely going to revisit this periodically and I would love to address this in the next iteration. Would you mind creating an issue at https://github.com/fivetran/benchmark describing the concurrency trade-off that we're not accurately capturing?
I think ORMs are very nice if you take the time to sometimes profile your DB and also look at the SQL it generates. You still can optimize slow queries by hand writing SQL. I definitely prefer an ORM codebase over one with direct SQL statements. Best in my view is to abstract all database access into a separate layer. A little more work but much easier to maintain and tune if needed.

I'm a published researcher in AI.

* Where: depends on the field of research. Top general AI conferences include AAAI and IJCAI, which occur once per year. Papers are submitted online and reviewed anonymously. There are many others. Top machine learning conferences include NIPS and ICML; same comments apply.

* How: well, you write a paper conforming to the length and style requirements (this requires learning LaTeX, at least the basics). The paper should describe the problem you are trying to solve, briefly describe and cite relevant prior work and explain either why it does not solve the problem, or why the solution you will be presenting is better. It should then present your solution and evidence for it, be that theorems and proofs or experiments or simulations. You then submit the paper to a conference online.

You didn't ask how you can conduct your research on AI (your phrasing makes it sound already completed), so I'll try to avoid too much unsolicited advice, but this is the difficult part. It's important that you have read the most relevant papers to the problem you're trying to solve (this will help you see how to structure your own paper) and that you have a clear idea of where your research fits and improves on the existing literature.

Frankly, this will be very difficult unless you have some help from a mentor or collaborator who has been through the process before. Ideal would be to get in touch with someone who is doing research in the specific area you are interested in and ask to meet with them, explain what you are doing, and get their advice on related work, whether your work is publishable, and how to present it. That doesn't make them a co-author.

If you are interested in getting into research long term, ideal would be to ask a similar person to help or join on one of their projects, or collaborate on your idea. After some experience it will be much easier to figure things out for yourself.
Can you share your contact information? I am working on computer vision and I would love to contribute to advance science if I can.

>...but General Motors can utilize the real estate and expertise of it's existing network of dealerships, which can save them from a great deal of capital investment as Robotaxis dissemintate.

I was involved in a project at a major US auto maker where they wanted to utilize spare capacity at the dealers on something similar to what you are discussing. In this case, we would pay the dealers to utilize that capacity.

In some states, the dealer networks are large, politically very influential, and are not inclined to allow anything that will disrupt the status quo of selling and leasing cars. They absolutely had their hands around the throat of the auto maker and forced us to go another route just because they saw what we were trying to do could possibly change their income flow in some small way.

In theory, GM has the infrastructure and is making the right acquisitions. In practice the vast majority of the company is entrenched in selling and leasing cars and many people in the company don't have the imagination to see the world differently. GM has a lot of internal and external politics to overcome before they are successful with autonomous cars and Robotaxis.
I've gone with this approach for a niche social networking site I'm building. The biggest benefit an HSM provides is vendor wrapped keys, which does simplify key management and allows you to lean more on your vendor to support key material confidentially.

1) One reason would be that increasingly often, when you search for some rhel/centos problem, the solution is behind a paywall at access.redhat.com. Not that I blame RH, they are a commercial company and need to make money somehow. Or similarly, you get a search hit for bugzilla.redhat.com, but it turns out that the bug has been marked customers only, so you can't access it unless you have a RHEL subscription.

2) For major and minor releases, they are months behind RH. That may or may not be a problem for you, though.

3) Debian is less beholden to the interests of any one corporate entity (for better or worse), if that kind of thing appeals to you.

4) Debian has a huge number of packages, much more than CentOS + EPEL.

5) On the fly upgrade to the next release. Though in a professional setting where you have automated provisioning, reinstall isn't that much of a burden anyway.

That being said, both CentOS and Debian are very solid distros, you're not going wrong if you choose one of them.
Sure. Personally, I have both. Sound-isolating earbuds for uses in cafes, trains, etc. And non-isolating ones for running. Alas, given that Google has removed the headphone jack, that solution works less well here.
The grammar is ambiguous. "half the world" == "the poorest 50% of the population". "half the world's wealth" == "the wealth of the poorest 50% of the population"
Not entirely true.

Android market share is !85% (worldwide, it is less in the US). When Microsoft was going through the monopoly cases their market share was ~90-93%. Not actually that far off the same metric.

The thing is that Google is being very careful to not commit the same mistakes there. Though I'd say they're pretty close (and the EU seems to agree, generally, warning them a few times over similar behaviors)

iOS marketshare is a funny thing - it makes ~$30 billion a year in revenue - 3 times that of the Android marketplace - but has less than 1/5th of the users.

"Requirements are a trap. They don't work. Requirements are no less complex and undiscoverable than code."

I used to believe this too, but no more. What hit me is requirements manifest complexity of a different kind - a kind that humans are much better at managing, especially when using Scenario-Based Requirements. This means a lot of business application programming will become automated.

Meanwhile, humans are going to be engaged in UX development, systems programming and systems integration for the foreseeable future. So there's still going to be quite a bit of work for developers to do. Heck, with the automation of the creation of business applications there may be somewhat paradoxically more work for developers to do.
