> What's wrong with using vim or emacs and being happy rest of your career?

I agree with your basic notion -- it takes quite some time to be really fluent with serious IDEs and editors, so changing is inefficient.

But just one editor/IDE doesn't work for everyone. If you favour a GUI-only editor like Sublime Text, for example, then you probably need to also know a console-based one. Or if like me you prefer a heavy IDE for most project work, you probably need to be fluent with a lightweight editor.

For me IntelliJ IDEA + emacs covers all the bases. I'll look briefly at new tools to keep familiar with the landscape, but I'd rather invest the time it would take to learn them into something which will improve my skills in something more useful to the craft than just more tools that do essentially the same things.

> "These days, the business software market is shifting again, and Microsoft Office must now compete with similar bundles that are entirely free, from the likes of Google, LibreOffice, and others. Productivity software resides more often than not in the cloud, rather than on the user’s device. Meanwhile, the dominant mode of personal computing globally has firmly shifted from the desktop and laptop to the smartphone. As yet, no new vision of personal computing like the one that came from Xerox PARC in the 1970s has emerged. And so for the moment, it appears that PowerPoint, as we know it, is here to stay."

Whilst I'm sure PowerPoint will stick around for quite a bit longer, I'd suggest Microsoft is already working on the spiritual successor to PowerPoint, which is called Sway. Can think of Sway as web-based presentation software. It's already part of the Office suite.

Neither of these are true of Netflix’s home page, though. They’re not deferring React and thus causing unresponsivity; they’re deferring React and handling the interactions on the home page using server-side rendering and regular JavaScript event handlers. React is loaded in the background so that it can be there when you log in and thus load the “app” part of Netflix; not so that it can “kick in” after 2s to drive the homepage.
Perhaps it's difficult to convey but I redid a lot of the interior of my current (brick and mortar) home from the 1930's myself and it really made me appreciate wood as a building material. Strong, very easily made into the required shape, easy to attach to each other, easy to attach other things to... I always felt wood was "how we used to do it"... not anymore.

Guess this place is a good as any to express my found love for the material.
The theory looks interesting but overall, however it reminds me of things like NAIRU, which is basically a justification of unemployment. Maybe there is some idea there which can explain why people perceive fairness as they do (why we evolved that way), but that's perhaps about it.

The problem is, the unemployed person doesn't care whether or not the NAIRU as a model is fair. They already have their one shot at life, going on right now.

So, I think we shouldn't care what the curve is, and focus on the extremes on both sides, because both are bad. Poor people have it bad for obvious reasons, and that should be enough moral justification to not have them at all. Too wealthy people are bad because money translates to power, and this power can be misused.

But I agree with the author that we should have progressive taxes, but also basic income (and I think Norway is close on both).

daniel (aka me) WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING WITH YOUR LIFE
Speaking from the experience of someone who has hired general heavy labor and skilled trades... This has literally existed since the gold rush, chances are 60-80% of the labor involved in building your house came from an organization like this. They are a unique niche of staffing agencies that only staff same day labor. Many of organizations are nation-wide. Also, lots of skilled workers ask to be paid in cash, so they wouldn’t want a paper trail anyway... you pay 50% upfront and 50% when the job is done to spec. Just doing a few jobs on Craigslist and hiring some laborors won’t make you in any way even close to expert enough to tackle this field.

Correction you can also hire them for weeks at a time. Onus for workers comp, etc is on the agency.

Is it that difficult to swap a micro switch?

I’ve repaired many flaky vintage mice by swapping the switches.

There are industrial microswitches that can take a ton of clicks and also you can tune the weight of the click by checking the datasheets.

Digikey and Mouser are your friends, you could probably pay for a dozen switches and a workable soldering iron for what it costs to replace some of these gaming mice.

If you’re on a budget, just get a clone Hako iron.

> this is a program interchange format, not a format meant to be read by a person

So why is it xml? I mean this defeats the whole point. Not to mention how it adds a lot of useless noise.

If it's a program interchange format, it could at least be in binary.
It seems like weak memory models get short shrift, but if you're going to program without locks it's semi-important to understand what information one gets when examining a read-write pair.
Quite the contrary, macOS has been a boost to Unix. You are rather naive idf you think all macOS users are potential Linux users. macOS helped make Unix a strong competitor to Windows. It helped demonstrate that a Unix system CAN be user friendly something many people used to think was impossible.

Thanks to the rise of macOS windows has become a second class citizen for many development tools.

The non-gui layer of macOS and Linux can for the most part easily be shared. It means open source developers of non-gui tools have a much bigger usergroup and potential contributors.
Pi-hole can block websites on HTTPS. The only inconvenience is that you will not get an informative 'block page', but you get a standard browser-generated error page instead. Pi-hole does not generate SSL certificates on the fly like intercepting proxies do.
> sqlite files couldn't be more open

Yes, actually they could. They could be readable without any software at all. Like XML.

All of the improvements suggested in the article could be implemented by extending the XML format to allow including by other XML files by reference.
That E-class production line video is interesting, it's basically the same assembly strategy Tesla uses: all bits of the engine, drivetrain, suspension etc. is assembled into a "skateboard" in one line, while the body gets fitted with all the trim, interior, doors etc. on another line and then dropped onto the skateboard (which you see from 6:30 and out in the video).

If Tesla is stuck on a battery bottleneck it's just as silly as if Mercedes were stuck on a sheet metal bottleneck. Yes, you need reliable component suppliers that can scale with you as you grow and provide the quality you need. If you don't have that, you have a big problem that vertical integration isn't going to solve.

FWIW ZIP files also allow for partial saves as each entry is stored in a separate stream so all you need to do is update the directory, which is placed at the end of the file (in theory you could update archives in an append-only manner when saving and have a pack command to rebuild the ZIP file in order to remove the unnecessary data). It is just that (AFAIK) no program that uses ZIP as a generic container bothers with that (and besides, implementing the necessary logic for the partial saves might actually be the harder bit, regardless of the storage format).

I miss Viewpoint Data Labs' online free archive of 3D models .. it was once the most extensive collection of diverse objects out there, back in the early days of the web, but with the (then-) rise of VRML and early VR hype, its owners decided it was a property with some commercial value, and they took it offline. And we've been trying to replace it ever since ..
> It's going to also eventually revolutionize warfighting, and I suspect that the US will be slower to adopt it than other countries because of the ethical and moral considerations of turning over decisions about life and death to machines.

I like your assumption that the US actually cares about moral or ethical considerations, considering how many governments they've overthrown, how many terrorists they've funded, etc...

Not to mention the fact that they are already the leaders in drone warfare, and routinely use drones to drop bombs on civilians. I really don't see them giving a fuck if an algorithm bombs a wedding instead of someone staring at a screen pressing the button...
I agree - it's a surprising and cool paper. There has been some work done on fooling network ensembles by constructing constructing a Bayesian posterior over weights using dropout [0]. This is an ensemble of weights for the same network, not over different architectures, however.

The basic idea here is that most of the time, each member of the ensemble will misclassify the adversarial example in a different way. This means that the posterior predictive distribution for adversarial examples ends up much broader, and you can detect them this way.

Surprisingly, even this can be beaten in the white-box case [1], although it's by far the hardest to beat of the current adversarial defences, and needs much more distortion. It's beaten exactly as the GP says, by differentiating through the averaging. AFAIK no-one's tried architecture ensembling, but I expect it would be vulnerable to the same technique.

FWIW, I think you all mean disclosure, not disclaimer.
But rent-seeking is the basis of current western capitalist economy. Entire pension system is based on investments (i.e. old people extracting money from labour of others without having to work) - and it is the reason why politicians are chasing the unsustainable continuous GDP growth.

This would collapse without rent-seeking as most old people suddenly would have to go back to work (except small minority of old people that made enough money in their lives but that will be less than 1%).
I'm holding a significant amount myself.
I work on Blockchain projects and I believe cryptocurrencies are the future of money so it would be negligent of me not to.

This is like asking is there an ideal amount of crime? The bigger question is what kind of society do you want to build?

If you want a stable society you will work towards ensuring people have decent income, possibilities to grow and overall wider distribution of income. The alternative is oppression when people react to their conditions.

There is no point having a few people capturing the wealth of and productivity of a society. Yet you are already born into a society with rent seekers and individuals who hold a huge amount of wealth. The top 1% already control the economy and assets.

Discussion about inequality then is moot as it only perpetuates an illusion of control and freedom to decide the issue when there is none.
SEC oversees securities trading, which Bancor does not deal in.

found it was more trouble than it it was worth. Because it blocks at the DNS level using (very large) DNS blacklists. It was cumbersome to temporarily whitelist domains when you hit a site that just wouldn't load properly as you had no idea which of the many domains that site was requesting were being blocked. By comparison, using an in-browser adblocker you can just disable the the adblocker and reload the page, and once done, a single click re-enables the adblocker again

Isn't entire retirement / pension system based on rent-seeking? Only tiny amount of people make enough money that they can stop working and retire without having to extract / take cut from economic activity / labour of younger working people (and cheap labour in developing world). How would you handle pensions other than rent-seeking via investment?

Plus, as the population of western world is aging and there are more and more old people and less productive young people, the rent-seeking will only get worse. Much more people will be retired and will depend on getting cut from productive working people who will be squeezed more and more (higher taxes, longer hours, lower or stagnating wages). This can be alleviated to a degree by western corporations being global and exploiting cheap labour in third world but even that will be exhausted once the developing world catches up to western standard.

I failed to understand the point: there were ZX Spectrum clones, there was a clone called HC, and the article is about an illegal clone Cobra. Some of the people building Cobras even used the cases of HC. So what were the functional differences? Except for knowing you've made your own machine, was there some other advantage of Cobra over the HC or some other clone? Were all illegal for home use?
I'm personally glad Mozilla take such an interest in ensuring CAs are trustworthy. After all, they are the linchpin for security and authenticity of just about everything on the web.

I think this post shows that Mozilla are trying to be as transparent as possible about what they expect, and thay they're proactively working with Digicert to make it as likely as possible that the new CA will be trusted. A certain amount of open-endedness is inevitable though, otherwise it'd be possible to find loopholes with enough motivation (and the survival of a business is fairly good motivation).
Real estate / land. Buy a bunch of condos and rent them out. You have basically infinite passive income (yes those buildings won't be there forever but relative to your lifespan it is infinite, probably will provide income for your family for several generations) without having to produce or do any labour / work. There is maintenance / repairs to be done but that can be outsourced to a real estate / concierge service.
Or you just use a very basic dnsmasq installation and make use of a list like: https://github.com/notracking/hosts-blocklists that allows you to also block full domains.

Been using this list for several months now without any issues.

Besides that, it's worth reading in to dnsmasq's configuration in more detail, in the end pi-hole is just a preconfigured dnsmasq installation with a user interface to manage hostname based blocklists.

This is true for the two biggest commercial trust stores, Apple and Microsoft. But Mozilla conducts almost all its activities in public and this is no different. The group m.d.s.policy is open to public participation, as well as having some participants from other trust stores and CAs. You should probably lurk for a while before posting (people who show up one day writing that all the CAs should be kicked out get basically the same reaction as if you stumble into a bar demanding an end to alcoholic beverages at the top of your lungs) but if you have something worth saying that's somewhere it will be seen.

For me, the biggest reason not to do this sort of thing is that SQLite still often refuses to work over network filesystems.

I appreciate that this is because the authors are being careful about possible corruption when locking isn't working properly, but if they really mean the « SQLite competes with fopen() » line they need to find a way to get round this, because fopen() doesn't do that.
As would be the case for particles in intergalactic space. Recent news relayed studies confirming cold gas ligaments between galaxy clusters, in which particles are very far apart, moving really slow and radiation is emitted which is interpreted as a gauge for the temperature (which is so weak, ie. cold, it wasn't detected in previous surveys).

edit:
The point is, the far distance leaves the particles "alone" pretty much. If it doesn't make sense for a single paryicle to be seen as a closed system, of course it can't be assigned a temperature. But with regards to cooling and a strict loss of energy, the system is semipermeable, isolated in one direction. Then from our point of view, there's heat.

So for example, couldn't the temperature "be in" the electrons movement around the core (for lack of a better expression)? I mean, for a true resting state I would expect the electrons to fall into the core, not just ground state (annihilating the charges, so an atom really couldn't exist at absolut zero.

But if you are looking at a point source as the center of your frame of reference, it couldn't exhibit brownian motion. Then maybe curves described by spacetime has potential wells and exited states above that and maybe particles jitter between closely parallel worldlines, if they are entangled with anything besides.

What they've done makes complete sense, and is probably the way more developers should start looking at SPAs.

The initial page load doesn't use React. It doesn't need it. Its a pretty simple page with a bunch of links and a couple of signup/signin buttons. Once you click one of these links, the subsequent pages load React in order to handle the richer client-side interactions on those pages.

Seems reasonable. React allows for a better User Experience than static pages, but at the cost of additional load time. So don't load it on the first page, when your users are most likely to bail, and then load it once you need it.

Maybe we're starting to see the pendulum swing back the other way. 3 or 4 years ago, we seemed to go from 'SPA Nowhere' to 'SPA Everywhere,' and now maybe we're settling on 'SPA Where We Need It'

MSAB | C++ Developer – Forensic Extraction | Stockholm, Sweden | ONSITE FULL-TIME

Use your C++ skills to help fight crime.

We are looking for a C++ developer to join our forensic extraction team. The challenge, should you accept it, is to extract data from mobile phones and other portable devices like drones. This data can come from apps, cloud services and system files. The data needs to be processed and analyzed to be able to be presented, and in the end used in court. You will be part of the whole process from clever idea to finished feature. Our 60 person development department sits co-located in our offices in Hornstull. We’re organized in agile teams with lots of deciding power over the products and services we build.
Who are you?

You are a passionate C++ programmer that loves solving problems. We see a lot of code from iOS and Android so being fluent in Objective-C, Java, C or ARM Assembler is good. The amounts of data we work with is steadily increasing so knowledge about efficient IO handling and solutions for distributed data would be useful. You have a relevant university degree or similar knowledge attained elsewhere. You will work as part of a team with different backgrounds and competences where it’s important to be open to learning from others, but also to share what you know. You can be very senior or in the beginning of your career, we have challenges of varying difficulty. The most important thing is that you care about your work and have a strong desire to learn new things and develop a deep understanding for the challenges we face.
