Companies like Instagram/Quora have written about having multiple releases per hour. Basically, every 'git push' is a release if the tests pass. So, the model works for consumer companies to some extent (at least on the backend side).

Would be interesting to hear about the deployment practice of more mission critical products like AWS/GCP.

I wouldn’t close your mind to it. Finance attracts “questionable people” but finance is also very interesting on many levels and is a central part of life. Work through some finance math. Calculate an IRR. See how it works. If anything there’s a lot of great human history in it.

>Heavy batteries cut payload and add cost, potential deal killers for fleet buyers focused on operating cost per mile.

True but the maintaince cost for EV is minimal if you discount the battery. You don’t even need to replace brake disks.

Tesla seems to have done a lot of research in the cost per mile and is touting “lifelong ownership cost” in perhaps creative ways. Their numbers show good discounts per mile in comparison with a traditional semi.
I'd suggest starting with the tin whistle. They're very cheap, very easy (you can learn the basics in a day or two, a week at most to get your first tune down), and any Irish session will either have someone willing to teach or someone who knows where you can get a teacher. The Session[1] is an excellent resource for it.

As for which whistle to buy, get one in the key of D. A Walton's little black should be about $6, one of their slightly better brass whistles around $11, and a Generation nickel D is about $12. If you really want to splurge Susato makes a very nice high D for $50 (their Kildare S series), but it's quite loud and more for if you are playing before an audience. The most expensive whistles around are probably Burke's, at $230 for a high D. So even if you end up collecting Burke whistles obsessively and getting one in every key he makes you'll still be out less money than buying some high-end guitars!

The one disadvantage is that they're diatonic instruments. That means you can play in one key, and only one key, without cross-fingering the whistle.

For tuning, I recommend either an electronic tuner or the program Flutini[2], assuming you get a tunable whistle (the cheap ones aren't and it probably won't matter much).

Helix works on mobile quite well already, and soon I am planning to make it progressive, that is you can add it to the home screen, it'll work offline, sync with the server when it can, and be essentially indistinguishable from a native app.

I haven't implemented notifications yet because I'm not using them myself, but I'm definitely planning to, apparently many people find them useful.

Yes, I am planning to monetize it, once I'll complete all the main requested features, it'll cost $12/year. But everyone who joins during the beta and sends me feedback will get free lifetime accounts =)
Society certainly enables the behavior, and pieces of society encourage it unfortunately. Hypothetical... if I owned a large film production company, in order to deter these abuses of power I would a) have better contract clauses to get rid of people that were taking advantage, b) limit the opportunities for people to take advantage of others (via chaperones or accountable assistants), and c) communicate the policy to new employees and auditioning actors so that they can better assess if someone is breaking the rules

Southern Ontario here. 36. Programming professionally for 14 years or so. Picked it up as a hobby when I was 9 or 10.

The "fundamentals" predate you and I by quite a few decades. Alonzo Church, Turing, Gentzen, Liskov... their work really paved the way for us all. I suspect the lambda calculus will be as useful 30 years from now as it is today. As long as I'm working in a language with first-class functions as values I think I'll be okay.

It's funny that many people still hold the belief that even mathematics is a young person's game. There are plenty of examples of mathematicians making significant contributions after the age of 30.

For me I think the life of a programmer begins at thirty.

Linux distributions are a different beast since they're mostly tracking a myriad of upstream third-party repositories overlaid when necessary by their own patch sets. And most of those upstream repos are by necessity highly decoupled from any particular distribution. Different distributions have different solutions to how they manage upstreams with local changes. E.g. OpenEmbedded uses BitBake where (similar to FreeBSD Ports and Gentoo Portage) the upstream can be pretty much anything, including just a tarball over HTTP, and local changes are captured in patch files, while others instead use one-to-one tracking repos where local changes are represented by version control revisions.

AOSP is closer to what you're imagining, but I haven't met anyone who thinks Repo (Android's meta-repo layer) and Gerrit (their Repo-aware code review and merge queue tool) are pleasant to work with. E.g. it takes forever and a day to do a Repo sync on a fresh machine. A demand-synced VFS would be very nice for AOSP development, even though it's not a monorepo but a polyrepo where Repo ties everything together.
I understand and don't disagree with what you are saying, but it is worth remembering the Tesla has an order of magnitude (or two) less moving parts than any of those existing big rigs. There are simply much, much less parts to wear out.

We're not discussing what competitors are doing. We're discussing how much maintenance the Tesla will need, which has nothing to do with competitors products.

Yes, but only with pitch bends. For example the Great Highland Bagpipe is tuned to a just intonation scale, which commonly approximates A Mixolydian (neither a major nor minor scale). (It's actually 3 pentatonic scales overlaid, but let's not get into that...)

Getting that to sound right in MIDI requires the use of pitch bends, since MIDI only understands 12 tone equal temperament.

Religion is a virtue, classically speaking:

"The moral virtue by which a person is disposed to render to God the worship and service he deserves. It is sometimes identified with the virtue of justice toward God, whose rights are rooted in his complete dominion over all creation. Religion is also a composite of all the virtues that arise from a human being's relationship to God as the author of his or her being, even as love is a cluster of all the virtues arising from human response to God as the destiny of his or her being. Religion thus corresponds to the practice of piety toward God as Creator of the universe. (Etym. probably Latin religare, to tie , fasten, bind, or relegere, to gather up, treat with care.)"

http://www.catholicculture.org/culture/library/dictionary/in...

The virtue proper is in many respects the very opposite of superstition; like any virtue, it must be cultivated in a personal and deliberate manner and is ultimately a matter of interior orientation.

I'm sorry for your bad experiences and your feeling forced to participate in the Catholic Faith. Many Catholics I know, from very young to very old, love Christ and His Church, and I know more than several who have sacrificed much to become Catholic. I'm not trying to convince you of anything, but just keep in mind that your personal experiences may not encompass the whole reality of the Church.

The truth is that you don't understand the objection. And, AFAICT, even the rudiments of real property transactions.

> All elements can be verified and validated against open source code using the contract’s Bytecode and a contract verification tool like etherscan.

I'm assuming the contract is flawless. It's the PDF deed that needs to be verified as legally sufficient before initiating the deal without actually being delivered to the person who must verify it until default that creates an insurmountable verification problem in your scheme.

And that's leaving aside the legal sufficiency of such a document in the first place, and leaving aside the question of what form such a deed could take.
Income distribution and wealth distribution are not the same. It is perfectly possible to earn $500k/year (which would put you in the top 1% of income distribution that this article is talking about) and spend every penny of it, leaving you at the end of the year with the same amount of wealth that you had at the start of the year.

Similarly, it is possible to earn $200k/year (not in the top 1% for income) and save very aggressively.
That's detailed, but not excruciating. Thank you.
When you run this utility, it forwards stdin to Google Sheets.

Should you pipeline stdout from somewhere else to this utility, the contents of that stdout will be forwarded to Google Sheets.

It is correct to say either that you are forwarding stdin or that you are forwarding stdout. It is therefore not correct to say that it does not forward stdin, because the source code explicitly refers to stdin. That's likely the reason for the [Fight Club]s the GP is receiving.

Good clarification. But, do we know that is what everyone does? It's obviously a cultural, rather than a technical limitation. I suspect there are significant bodies of code kept inside corporate forks of upstream (and regularly rebased to them) with only selected parts dribbled out to the public upstream repos by trusted representatives of said copies. But, I have nothing to prove that and the only public traces I would see would be commits to upstream from corporation X.

That was the point of the first few paragraphs at least, but unfortunately the actual review is much longer. The point doesn't seem to be especially fair to me for two reasons:

First, what one is aware of is not necessarily what one regards as relevant to the topic at hand, and the statement was only that Dennett did not think anything before Descartes was especially relevant to his own view of the matter. In an earlier work, Consciousness Explained, Dennett discusses at numerous points some of the models of the mind entertained in the platonic dialogue Theaetetus for inspiration and comparison, so he's clearly not completely unaware of all philosophy before the 17th century. From reading several of his papers and books, there are other examples to this effect, but I don't want to belabor the point. It does not seem at all unreasonable for someone to judge a number of approaches or prior developments irrelevant to present concerns.

Second, this sort of accusation is fundamentally unfalsifiable, and can be made about any field. From the current front page, you might perhaps run across someone who claims "Anyone trying to study compilers without having studied the history of the Oberon Compiler will be running in endless circles". I would not be unsympathetic to such a person. The Oberon Compiler seems to have embodied quite a few really interesting and innovative new ideas, even ones that haven't been followed up on since. However, such a person would still be being fairly silly. It is a generally tolerated delusion for one to assume that one's own field of knowledge, domain, and preferred schools of thought are absolutely crucial to correct thinking on some matter. Nonetheless, the history of the human intellectual edifice is one of continual reinvention and independent development of numerous important innovations. There comes a point when any professional, must start developing their own arguments and responses rather than just playing field historian.

The electric advantage though is that you can infinitely (or well close enough) modulate that power delivery. And in fact I think they recently added a "slow and comfortable" acceleration option to the Model S (the opposite of Maximum Plaid :-)

The snow comments were also mostly in regards to the context of the Model 3 which is not that "high power" but it also has obviously quite a substantial amount of torque from a get-go compared to traditional gasoline torque curves.

Generally speaking though I would agree.. I love AWD, Breathe AWD.. and my Model 3 will be AWD :) .. and we don't get any snow!

Also 7 months of snow is probably very different to much less of it I imagine.

Very, thanks to git-tfs [1]. My company is in the midst of a move from on premise TFS/TFVC to cloud based VSTS/git. We've run into some projects that managed to somehow mangle their branch history so to the point that we gave up and only migrated the current checkin to git, but most projects pull out the full history and all branches with no trouble.

The only real complaint I have is speed. Dunno if it's our TFS server or the nature of TFS, but every checkin pulled into git takes anywhere from 5-30 seconds. In large projects with long histories you can easily spend 30+ minutes exporting history before running into a problem that prevents the export from completing.

You’ll live to a thousand years, but you’ll probably only vividly remember the last five decades, and some smatterings from the past. Is that really meaningful?

I just want to get really good on the mandolin, and that’s probably going to take a few decades more than I actually have. And that’s what I think about when I watch movies about immortals (Highlander and the like). While you’re thinking “oh, the things he must have seen! The rise and fall of empires! The loves won and lost!”, I’m thinking, “he must play a hell of a violin by now.” So I might only remember the last fifty years, but I’ll always be better on the mandolin than I was last year. Who knows, maybe I’d have time to get good on the fiddle?
True RAID depends on not-at-all-independent writes to each disk. The whole thing needs to be atomic to be safe, which is impossible without a battery backup. With ZFS each write to each disk is independently atomic, which is what avoids the write hole. You always know if the write succeeded on each disk.

But I was to some extent conflating the different redundancy methods ZFS has. Some of them use the same sectors on each disk (I think) but some definitely don't. The writes are completely independent of each other under some settings.

> Map your scales directly onto launchpad/push/circuit, and you never get a wrong note

If you mean "map your notes so that you can only play the 7 diatonic notes of your major scale", well, then sure it's impossible to play "wrong notes", but it's also impossible to modulate to different keys, to play secondary dominants, any modal mixture, to add chromaticism, etc.

Similarly, as I understand it one of the advantages of equal temperament is that it allows you to modulate to any key within the same song. Of course if you never modulate you should just use just intonation in your key.
