I can sympathise. I've basically been brought in to take over from someone who was the technical bottleneck for the company I now work for so that he can get on with being CTO. For a while I was necessarily working alone, but now I've hired a team and am in the process of eliminating myself as the bottleneck: by the time I go on holiday at the end of this week I want to be off the critical path and never find myself on it again.

That pricing comment is almost laughable and makes me wonder how much Intel paid for this review.

Framing the pricing in the context of a $9,000 PC is a blatant attempt to dilute the price discrepancy. In the context of a common ~$2,500-$3,000 rig, $700 matters a lot. I'd be curious to see how many people buy these "dream" $9,000 PCs. I'd wager it's not many.

If you want to try the interactivity in Firefox, run

$$('.controls').forEach(controls => controls.style.display = 'inline')

in the console. I didn't see any breakage and I have no idea why the browser sniffing was deemed necessary in the first place. If it had been broken, the disclaimer would have been warning enough; no need to disable features.

It didn't work anyway: hovering over the videos toggles the visibility of controls, which fires the mouseover event again, which toggles the controls off, which leads to really annoying flickering. Of course nobody thought to sniff for that.
JShell for Java
What do people think about JShell for Java 9?
To add to this, there is literally a term "the Pittsburgh Left"[1]. Informal etiquette does really help prevent things like a lane getting blocked for three lights when someone needs to make a left at a busy intersection. However, humans definitely aren't perfect and they likely add a lot of congestion on their own from stuff like following to closely, not maintaining speed, etc.

I feel like this is going to be a huge problem if we have mixed human operated and self-driving vehicles on the road at the same time. If we ever move to entirely self driving cars we could move to some sort of protocol for cars to communicate about ambiguous self driving actions.

It's really common to see the Uber Volvo's driving around, but it definitely causes me to tense up when driving around them. I have no idea why, I realize there is significant risk when around any other car on the road. It's new. Hopefully these issues get worked out in a reasonable time frame, but it is software.

> I did't like the noise due obrigatory use of unwrap() after calling a function with constants (such as constructing a regex). Such setup obviously must panic when it fails.

Once we get real const evaluation, which huuuuuge steps toward were taken last week, this stuff will go from "kinda awkward" to "very good", that is, that kind of thing can run at compile time, and you'll know that the runtime code isn't calling unwrap at all.

The underlying stuff here (miri) also has really interesting implications for unsafe code and tooling around it, but that's slightly further off.
> the reality is that the self-driving vehicles are overly cautious.

Humans contribute to lots of accidents when they unconventionally yield the right of way. Other drivers which should be yielding are now faced with the unpredictability of the too-cautious ("dangerously" cautious IMO) driver re-claiming their right of way. Or they face the problem of other drivers in other lanes who don't notice that the incorrectly-yielding driver is letting another vehicle into their right-of-way.

Your reasons for being an asshole don’t change the end result though. It just changes the context around it.

Also a 10x Dev would usually go back to the product manager/client and say that feature X looks kind of redundant or a really edge case, but would take a significant chunk of time to code. Is it really needed for v1.0 considering it will cost 2 weeks of Dev Time?

You obviously need to have a good understanding of your clients and their needs and the way they use your product to e able to do that, but many shops simply ignore introducing their developers to the actual users of the product.
Hey look, someone took the time to explain to cryptocurrency enthusiasts why the rest of us perceive money as working.

Most knowledgeable cryto enthusiasts I know already know that fiat currencies work well enough for many people.

Folks like McKenzie will see no value in Bitcoin and other cryptos because their money needs are already satisfied. Good for them, but their narrow perspective excludes many valid use cases.

Consider these problems, for which Bitcoin offers a unique solution (and which folks like McKenzie may not even acknowledge as problems):

- civil asset forfeiture;

- capital controls;

- black market trading (remember, what's illegal to a foreign government might be a fundamental human right to you);

- intense privacy invasion by governments;

- widespread privacy loss through corporations (Equifax, Verizon).

Bitcoin doesn't need to ape the services offered by the likes of Visa, PayPal, and Chase. It needs to address those unmet needs that can't be addressed by the incumbents.

That's going to be a niche audience, at least initially. But that's how all marketplace disruptions begin.
I actually finished my first playthrough in 3 hours and 45 minutes. Think I just got lucky with my strategy, but I guess one's focus should be one always upgrading paperclip production until you start having excess materials, and try to keep a balance so input = output as much as possible. But of course, all of this goes out the window on the last stage of the game.

Don't get me wrong. People appreciate open-source contributions but they'll look at repos etc and not just blindly look at the contributions bar.

Also I think github is not really good at surfacing PRs opened and merged into open source projects. It keeps getting it wrong for me under the 'repositories contributed to' section. Pinned repositories help with that a bit but still there's no way to showcase PRs and actual contributions rather than just list of repos.
I see you got the memo that being dismissive of everything that contains buzzwords is still popular ;)

Both IPFS and blockchain are definitely applicable to decentralizing applications. E.g. DSound[0], a distributed version of Soundcloud is built with IPFS + a blockchain(not necessarily a fan of STEEM though). There could just as well be something analogous for Github, Bitbucket, etc..

So... when there is somebody who isn't a Parisian and they hit a car because they did not know this, are they in fault?

I live in Paris, and although I do not drive I have the impression that most drivers here are extremely inconsiderate. As an example, there is a crossing which is constantly congested with buses and lorries stuck in the middle here. This is mainly because nobody respects the rules or priorities. When an officer comes in to control the traffic instead of the lights, it gets "magically" cleaned up and the circulation is fluid.

I'm sure that when you're trying to engineer a participant in a complex system, factoring in your own impact on that system and how it might come back to affect you is as simple as it sounds. I mean, it's not like self-reference is the generator of intractable complexity in every situation it is found, right?
It is peculiar that you have suddenly chosen to emphasize head hunting in relation to forager lifestyles, because head hunting is not a practice typically associated with hunter-gatherer bands. Its a practice typically associated with horticulturalists (e.g. Jivaroan peoples, various Austronesian groups, e.g. in New Guinea and Melanesia) organized into tribes or chiefdoms. There is endemic inter-group conflict in tribes and chiefdoms (understood as types of social organization), and that inter-group conflict may be a consequence of populations approaching the threshold of ecological sustainability (for given socio-technological capabilities), and may periodically relieve such pressures; such conflicts might even be regulated by a ritual calendar of sorts: indeed, that was more or less the thesis of Roy Rappaport's Pigs for the Ancestors: Ritual in the Ecology of a New Guinea People.

But, and I repeat, these are horticulturalists, not foragers. And so, again, I say, "No, its not "pretty well established" that the sustainability of a foraging lifestyle was maintained by inter-band conflict." In almost every case, the kinds of conflict people mention, are referring to horticulturalists.

Ubiquity just released a patch for KRACK and soon others will I imagine. From a client perspective, same as always, wait for a patch from your OS vendor. edit: it seems this patch only handles modes where the AP is a client like a bridge or site-to-site. Its still a client-side fix and patching AP's used traditionally won't fix this.

In practice, everything of value should be going over TLS. If you're worried you should be using a VPN on untrusted networks. This attack, if I'm reading it right, doesn't do anything someone on your wlan or lan can't do right now via ARP poisoning and other attacks. So being on that work connection or restaurant wifi is almost the same risk level of this attack.
If that driver is signaling, then a move should not be unexpected, especially if the unwritten rule is that one must force one's way into another lane.

You are actually providing an example that the Parisian way of doing things is not as benignly efficient as you suggested in your first post.
In theory, yes. In practice, we need to get SIMD working on stable, which is underway but not done yet. We also need to get RFC 2000, const integers, implemented. And I'm sure other things too.

Basically, Rust could be excellent at this in the future, but right now, is merely okay.

When the economy does well you earn 20 CryptoUnits a year selling widgets. When the demand for widget falls the staff refuse to take a pay cut to 15 CryptoUnits a year and so the company introduces big layoffs instead. This is made worse because nobody's willing to lend the widget manufacturers part of the fixed supply of CryptoUnits, firstly because hoarding the coins is a less risky strategy with the same expected return even when the economy is doing well, and secondly because they're especially not keen to lend CryptoUnits when they're expecting goods to get cheaper in the future.

Recessions happen with fiat too, they just can be a lot deeper when nobody can intervene to stabilise things and induce the people holding Crypto into lending and spending again or accepting real terms wage cuts.

There is a misconception that if you do the extra work you will get compensated some way either through promotion or bonus. It's simply not true. You are paid for the position you were hired for.

Rick should have left the moment he took on more work without matching compensation. Why wouldn't the business pile more work on Rick? It's free. As soon as it costs money, all of the issues brought up in the article would be addressed. Suddenly management cares.
I was once in a plane crash in which the wing of our small plane hit the mast of a sailboat that was motoring in front of the runway and we didnt see it. We impacted the seawall and flipped over onto land and slid upside down a few hundred feet.

The author's description of both not feeling his injuries until he tried to move as well as his own recognition of not being dead were spot on. I would have described it exactly the same way myself. I ended up with a broken foot and leg, but overall no lasting damage which was extremely lucky. Looking back on that experience is always incredibly surreal.
LIGO Detects Fierce Collision of Neutron Stars for the First Time
I don't disagree, but I suppose on a technical side it's possible to allow inflation in a cryptocurrency. The rate could possibly also be determined via some distributed consensus approach, though this again would likely not be particularly democratic without some central instance to keep track of voting identities (else you have to use stuff like proof-of-work which definitely isn't democratic in the least).

I totally agree. PRs should get more relevance. It seems like Open Source for GitHub is creating new repositories, writing a lot of commits and getting stars to your own repositories.

I think GitHub should work on the profile page. And the green bar should be removed, in my opinion.
I think most people discount the effect that connected cars will have on safety even when you have mixed levels of human operated and level 1-5 AVs. If a car operated by a human has even a basic connected control system in it then a AV can simply communicate that the driver is about to hit the AV and the human operated car will take some basic corrective action.

The interesting tech is not only AV but the infrastructure where cars communicate automatically about which lanes there in, what their intentions are etc.

The current use case I think is cool is a car comes up to a slow truck and the truck communicates to the car that the passing lane is clear.

No, difference in speed causes those accidents:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon_curve

> Speeding is one of the stupidest norms that exists in our society.

Politicians arbitrarily setting the speed limits is the root cause.

The EU has many countries which have higher freeway limits, yet lower accidents per mile driven. They also have more stringent licensing.
Yes, but the speeding norm is partly caused by speed limits being uniformly too low in some circumstances leading to speeding being tolerated to a point and everyone making their own judgements about how fast is too fast. It would be better to have higher limits that are strictly enforced rather than lower limits that no one follows.
Current situation: Government takes your money and you must sue to get it back.

Crypto: Government is incapable of taking your money and must prosecute in order to coerce you to turn it over. And you could still refuse and accept your jail time.

Edit: People replying to me are missing the point. This is about the case where the government is wrongfully taking your money. Under the current system your money can be seized without your knowledge and you have to prove it was taken wrongfully after the fact. With crypto the burden is shifted to the government who has to prove they have the right to seize it in the first place.

We've known about horizontal gene transfer for a long time. We do seem to be learning that it's more common than we thought, making species boundaries much more fuzzy and fluid than previously believed.

Common ancestry is probably best understood in aggregate. When we look at genetics in aggregate we see a lot of common sequences that are highly conserved across all of nature.

Edit: also shows why most anti-GMO hysteria is nonsense. Everything is "transgenic." Species are fuzzy.

The rules are not "for" something in France. They just appear out of committees and political compromises and are often half-assed implementations of nonsensical middle-ground between two coherent positions. Some may occasionally align with public interest.

The difference between preference and ability is one indicate what a person want to do, and the second dictate what a person can do.

For example, people of red hair have generally higher sensitivity to ultraviolet light["Variants of the melanocyte-stimulating hormone receptor gene are associated with red hair and fair skin in humans". Nature Genetics. 1995]. As a result a person with red hair will easier get sun burn and could very likely have a distribution that lean slightly away from professions which exposes the body to a lot of ultraviolet light. This do not mean that red hair color make someone unsuited to do outdoor work. A increased sensitivity to ultraviolet light is not a factor in a persona ability to perform work outdoor, only how comfortable such work would be.
