To the best of my knowledge, the bulk of the restrictions are implemented by pointing devices to a custom DNS server (a VPN can accomplish much the same but I don't know if this product implements that).

We Americans do tend to overuse superlatives. It's just part of our culture. A restaurant you enjoyed can't just be "good" or "decent", it has to "great". A nice vacation can't just be "relaxing" or "enjoyable" it will be described as "awesome".

"Amazing" is another word we tend to overuse.

Those intelligent developers who care need to make sure the less intelligent, more indifferent developers up their game. Tools and processes are put in place to mitigate risk from that second group, but it's the seniors that need to be able to transfer their mindset to the others. Which may not always work, mind you.

What should be avoided if possible is the hero developer; the risk there is that the hero dies or moves on and leaves behind unmaintainable work.
The worst is that they don't tell you when the package will be delivered. It could be at any time during the day. Usually when I got out to buy bread, or when I'm taking a shower.

If that is what he thinks, that is a perfectly reasonable thing to say, particularly as no-one is forced to ask him questions. It is not "harassment" by any stretch of the imagination.

Maybe the one being extremely sensitive isn't him.
I agree whole-heartedly. I'm far from proficient, but my vim skills did increase dramatically when I just started using it. A lot of that was driven by getting a Digital Ocean droplet and not having many other choices. I could've used nano, but I figured it was time for something new. I mainly use it for editing config files and the like, but it's been a good experience.

If anyone's interested in learning vim, I'd suggest just using it anywhere you'd otherwise use nano. You don't have to jump in head-first and use it like an IDE for coding or anything.

If you assume your conclusion, then your conclusion follows.

One of the big problems bitcoin has always had is that wishing doesn't make it so.

One relevant excerpt:

"Then it was about Y-Combinator cofounder Paul Graham; Wadwha felt Graham was being unfairly targeted for an essay he wrote about gender inequality in tech.

“Political correctness has gone too far,” Wadhwa wrote. “The alternative is communism — not equality. And that is a failed system…” Yiannopoulos passed Wadhwa’s email to Bokhari, who promptly ghostwrote a story for Breitbart, “Social Justice Warrior Knives Out For Startup Guru Paul Graham.”"

She was hit by a car but that was not the cause of death. She was morbidly obese and a heavy smoker.

https://www.nbcnews.com/video/heather-heyer-s-mom-delivers-m...

You heard that right. Heather Heyer died of a heart attack.

Heather Heyer, whom the media has told us again and again was killed after being run over by a white supremacist. While that statement might be strictly true, generally people assume that when someone dies as a result of being struck by a car that the death is a direct consequence of injuries sustained due to being struck by a car.

EDIT: Note that James Fields, the driver, had a history of mental illness, he was denied his request to enlist in the US Army because of history of taking anti-psychotic medication.

The media deliberately used a 10 year old picture of Heather Heyer where she was young and beautiful and not morbidly obese to deliberately spark the outrage by creating the optics of "young beautiful girl tragically run down by an ugly white supremacist". That sells so much better than "a panicked schizophrene loses control, in the ensuing stampede a morbidly obese woman dies of heart attack".
I’ve never had an issue with Amazon’s couriers. It’s not like our UPS/FedEx drivers go out of their way to differentiate themselves from the competition, and as long as my stuff gets here on time and undamaged, I don’t really care about how it’s getting delivered. Taking a photo of the delivery on the porch doesn’t seem strange to me at all, either.
Huh, I feel exactly the same way. I've never been employed in a position where the bottom-up approach was the one people were actually looking for, so I've always felt guilty about my work ethic - I feel like I'm satisfying my own curiosity on company time.
Agreed, each tool - process, framework, ritual, management layer, etc - adds more complexity to juggle, which hides the original problem and/or source code that does the actual work. It's why I like the direction the Go language and its proponents point towards, less tooling, simpler language with sane defaults and a complete standard library, and a mindset to go with it (things like "Nope you don't need a web application framework, just use the standard library first")

Are the statistics wrong on your data? Or is it that the subqueries modify the data set such that the statistics are unknown for the outer query?

Arbitrary ad hoc query support is hard, it feels like you want indices on everything but then data insertion is dog slow. Then even with perfect stats I’ve seen vertica and PostgreSQL order aspects of queries wrong, I know the pain you speak of. I’ve not convinced myself that it’s always solvable or obvious until you do it wrong though, I never spent much time explaining queries before executing them or explaining “fast” queries though.

> The lucky few selected to get an F50 would make a down payment of $240,000. Yes, that's right: a down payment of $240,000... on a car. After that, monthly payments were $5,600. Five thousand. Six hundred. Per month. For 24 months. And then, at the end of the lease, you owned the car -- assuming you could come up with the final payment of $150,000. Total payments over the 2-year span: $534,400. Only then could you resell your F50 and make money off the wild speculation.

But has the conservative party moved to the right after Cameron resigned? Cameron formed a coalition with a centrist Party (LibDems), but May courted the voters of one extreme right-wing party (UKIP) quite successfully and formed an alliance with another (DUP).

And May's instincts, as pointed out in her actions above, are nowhere near as liberal as Cameron's.
> Such risk will persist, mitigated by tools or not, so long as that lack of discipline persists.

I think you could have stopped after "Such risk will persist".

An engineer working on a project has far more control over what tools are used in the project than over the discipline or attention level of whoever is working on this project in three years. I don't see Hillel as arguing that we should give up on trying to improve discipline, but that we must expect to sometimes fail. Changing tools is pretty easy in comparison to changing cultures or incentives, and as a bonus, you can do it immediately, rather than hoping to respond when necessary.

You can find a cheaper bare metal system with comparable performance for every instance type. That is not a new argument for high vCPU/Memory instances.

If (monthly) price is the main concern "the cloud" is probably not for you. Other people obviously massively value the benefits of it and pay the premium, and that is not suddenly going to stop for a new instance size.
Browsing through mailcore2 [1], it looks like this would not support arbitrary IMAP flags. So far I have found only a handful of mail clients that can support them: MailMate, MailTags (brittle extension for Mail.app), and support for flags through folders if you happen to use Gmail as a server.

Artificial Synapses Could Lead to Brainier, Super-Efficient Computers
what a tasteless comment, really
It’s all about having a machine-readable definition of the API. When you have that, you can support strictly-, strongly-typed languages much better. In a language like C, Java or Rust, which would you rather: a JSON data type that is essentially Map<String, Object>, or a struct (or class, or whatever) that actually represents the fields and types that exist?

It’s useful to be able to quickly generate a client library with fair ergonomics for such languages, rather than having to use a weakly-typed, string-heavy general-purpose HTTP library. Languages like JavaScript, Ruby and Python don’t benefit so much from things like this, but even so there are definite advantages to it.

Yes it's definitely both, but I feel stating it as a gender equality issue makes it much clearer that it is a failure that needs to be fixed.

Agreed, I think this is a failing of most cultures right now. The good work that one does should speak for itself, and in a true meritocracy good work would be sufficient. Unfortunately that is never the case, it depends on people essentially boasting about what they do, and unfortunately it is all too easy for people who do mediocre work to boast loudly enough and receive praise. This is a current issue, and one I think Colony could encourage.

What I learned about solitude from my time with hermits
The good idea behind agile is the realization that if you can't plan two weeks of work you can't plan six months of work.

Back in the day I would frequently see projects where a few programmers would work in isolation for six months, then they thought they could put the modules together in two weeks and ship. Usually at that point they had no idea at all of how to set up a clean computer to build the product so they probably had at least another six months to go at this point...

This is the first time I've ever read about sleep problems caused by a simple glass of wine before bed. About ten years ago some study came out linking red wine to heart health, and I remember one smug kid at school making fun of the Mormons because the article had just "proven their religion wrong". Meanwhile health organizations were recommending you not start drinking because it's also addictive. I've heard that the drinking culture in the US has changed lately, as it is being seen as less and less healthy (I've been abroad for about 5 years).

Also if you look at the people who make up the uninsured, most uninsured are quite eligible for coverage either through an ACA tax cut, employer-sponsored insurance, or Medicaid eligibility.

The largest chunk of uninsured, based on a study by the Kaiser Family Foundation, are "undocumented immigrants" with an estimated 5.4 million uninsured. The remainder of those who aren't able to obtain health insurance (not to be confused with health care, which any individual can obtain by going into an emergency room or free health clinic) have either a coverage gap (2.6 million) or their income is too high to obtain a subsidy (3.0 million).

Notes – DeepWork by Cal Newport
Your API is a contract you're extending to your customers. You need to be able to specify the behavior of a given operation with enough precision that you and your customer have a good understanding of how it will work.

The problem with SOAP/WSDLs is that you break the contract every time you sneeze at the damn thing (adding a field, etc.). Swagger/OpenAPI is generally more permissive, as long as you know what you're doing.

API versioning is hard, regardless of the tool you use. Contract-first API design prioritizes predictability over fluidity. The decision on which trade-offs are correct will depend on the context.
Your old boss charged as much as he could have possibly charged in the place where he was ( restaurants are local: in a locality where there are more than a few customers dont travel to a restaurant.

If one is doing it for "the love of people" and love of craft he or she has a minimum incremental cost place to do it : community centers and church kitchens.
