Versus losing your ability to receive higher education or an income in your industry (or period?).
Seems like a real no-brainer choice to make there.
That's why savvy grow-ops bypass the meter.
Spain has been very much a car centric country but over the last years few cities have been pushing a transformation to become bike friendly. The biggest transformation I have witnessed is in Seville: https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2015/jan/28/seville-cycli...
If he were older at the time, he might have realized that saying something like that is not only short sighted, but would follow him for the rest of his life.

I haven't heard him repeat it since.

Of course, when I was young, I said plenty of short sighted, silly things as well.
Amtrak doesn’t really make a profit on its own. Anyone who has ever travelled portland to Seattle knows how slow it can be as freight gets priority.
Dude. Not moving a "sick passenger" off the train is the biggest issue of NYC subway commute.
Oddly enough, in stuffy industries not adhering to the dress code is a strong social signal that you're good enough to be able to flaunt it.

This is classic countersignalling behaviour: By refusing to pay the cost (financial, time, and comfort) of dressing up, you're communicating that you're not afraid of being mistaken for an interloper.

I really want to know how to do this. My stubble goes from 0-day to 1-day to 2-day to 3-day and then back to 0-day...
Allowed speed is not as simple as just where you are; it also depends on the trackside signals and how the track in front of you is lined and/or occupied. For example, if you are 1 mile from an interlocking you might be able to proceed at track speed because you will be going straight through it (clear signal) or you might need to slow down to, I.e., 20 mph as you are going to go through a switch to another track (approach diverging signal). One of the main complexities of PTC is getting all that signaling data onto the locomotive, combined with the route and rules, so that it can actually make the right decision. (Keep in mind that on the US's relatively slow freight railroads "cab signals"; I.e. seeing signal indications in the cab of the locomotive, is relatively uncommon. Signals are generally trackside only and are also often 50+ years old. They work fine, but they're not exactly networked in any modern sense. Updating all this trackside equipment is one of the primary costs of implementing PTC.)
Every advanced tech is using *nix.
Kinda surprised the Nvidia TK/TX didn't make this list.
I have a similar bike in Boston with two kids. It's not that bad; snowpants, good gloves, and adult wind breakers thrown around them gets you pretty far. The hardest part was getting the 2yo to wear a neck warmer or face mask when it was in the 20s. I imagine a trailer would be warmer and safer on ice. The long tail is just nicer overall.
Might as well complain about "I should have bet on 19 last spin!" :)
Well, I think that was a huge part of the point of the acquisition.

Apple knew for a long time it needed to replace classic Mac OS, which didn't have modern OS features. It started the Pink project internally to make a next-generation operating system, and eventually in the early to mid 90s, that got spun out into Taligent, the joint venture between Apple and IBM (and later others).

Then Taligent didn't pan out for a variety of reasons. Specifically why is another question, but here it's sufficient to say that Apple decided it certainly wasn't the direction they wanted to go. Taligent ended up being handed off to IBM and repurposed as a rapid app development tool that sat on top of other operating systems (AIX, I guess, mainly) instead of a standalone operating system.

As I recall, Apple may have tried to internally do its own second attempt at a next-generation operating system, essentially a competing project to Taligent, but that didn't work out either.

So that left Apple in the mid-90s but still stuck on an operating system that was rooted in the 1980s and really, really showing its age. And a lot of it was Motorola 68k only (it was never meant to be portable), but Apple had already started to make the shift to PowerPC CPUs. So there was another reason it was time to start fresh.

After at least one if not two failed attempts to come up with their own next-gen OS, here was this company founded by a former Apple luminary, with an operating system sitting there ready to go. NeXTSTEP was already portable enough to run on both 68k and x86 at that time, and once you've got two platforms, you can have pretty high confidence that a third (PowerPC) would be feasible. And I don't think NeXT had great long-term prospects with a standalone platform on its own.
For all holding BitCoin who are US citizens... Just know that you are indirectly supporting enemies of the US (including Russia and China). You could be investing in US companies via the stock market and promoting US growth and jobs instead.
I must be jaded, but isn't this obvious? If you don't validate certs you're vulnerable to MITM. If you don't mandate encrpytion on your client, you're vulnerable to downgrade attacks.

It would be nice if the common driver libraries supported key pinning in the connection string.
I have never been on the train between portland and Seattle without yielding for at least an hour.

>Downvoting is not a "I disagree" button like on Reddit

You have it backwards. Everyone might not follow this rule, but reddiquette says "Please don't downvote an otherwise acceptable post because you don't personally like it."

While pg thinks it's perfectly fine to use the downvote to express disagreement:

"I think it's ok to use the up and down arrows to express agreement. Obviously the uparrows aren't only for applauding politeness, so it seems reasonable that the downarrows aren't only for booing rudeness."

By that logic you should never reply to someone you downvote.

I’m reminded of the time I took the little gimmick out of a NUC box (which would play the Intel tune when you opened the box) and hid it in the ceiling next to the overhead light of an office mate.

Every time he came to work and flipped the light switch he was greeted with:

Unsecured AWS S3 buckets results in leak of 120M American's personal info
Linus Torvalds is perhaps the perfect depiction of this.
I don't disagree, but to suggest somebody go to jail over a single incident that could have been prevented by a technology already under deployment is equally ridiculous.

In 2005, PTC was a technology found almost strictly in yards and on local or regional lines where a single railroad operated both the rolling stock and track infrastructure. Seeing that in 2017, 12 years later, Amtrak is at 49% coverage on locomotives, and 67% on track coverage, the situation (from a PTC deployment standpoint) seems hardly criminal.

People understood binary perfectly! This was only about 50 years ago!

It's a function of the electromechanical technology: It's a lot easier and more reliable to have a wheel with ten index positions on it than to have four wheels with two index positions.

Many early electronic computers used binary coded decimal as a bridge between the electromechanical and the purely electronic worlds.

AI vs. Machine Learning vs. Deep Learning
You're right, correlation was not the right word to use, perhaps "positive correlation" would have fit better?.

I have found a correlation between dress code and competence, places that focus on the former can't afford to be picky with the latter in such a competitive market. The more talented can usually get paid just as well at more relaxed companies.
Solid lines until you get near an intersection, where they usually change to dotted lines to give a hint that you are required to merge into the bike lane before turning.
Many people who follow the ideals of free software also value their privacy.

A service requiring you to interact with Google software in order to use it, is pretty much a surefire way to find out that you and the service provider are not on the same page about the value of your privacy or at the very least that the service provider does not understand the privacy implications, which doesn't help your privacy.

There's the odd chance that the service provider has actually researched about the specific Google software that they're using and that it's somehow actually not privacy-invading, or that the service provider has a contract with Google to protect your privacy, but chances for both of those are really low.
Having wide streets where you can set side space for bicycle lanes also helps. After WW2, Berlin was in ruins, and the city was never built up to the density of many other European cities. The Soviets, in particular, were particularly fond of wide, open spaces. (The earlier Prussian kings also liked wide avenues they could march their soldiers through.) Berlin is definitely a great city to bike in.
Actually, if you study the history of clothing (etc) , that isn't what it is about at all.

It is a signalling of a maverick industry so powerful it can succeed without the approval or gatekeeping of stuffy banks etc. It is a huge middle finger to The Establishment.

Think of how YC began with the idea of two guys in a cheap apartment seeking to be ramen profitable. I will suggest it is no coincidence that I have read that Paul Graham is fond of (iirc) cargo shorts and sandals. It's a hugely self entitled position that his personal comfort matters vastly more than the opinions of gatekeepers.

There are good psychological reasons for enforcing it as an industrywide standard. You don't want people eroding that mindset of the industry or altering that social contract.
The idea is that it will be supplanted by other crypto. It's happening already, if you look at btc % of crypto market cap
Maybe in SV but certainly not everywhere. The vast majority of my colleagues are over 35. I mean like ~90%.
Agreed. Berlin is a very child-friendly city, and the biking is part of it. It is very common for parents to carry their kids in the bike. And heavy traffic makes the city less child-safe, not more.
explicitly preventing people of a certain age from seeing your ad is.

But that's not what "you" are doing. All these jobs are public. Every company in America has a jobs page that anyone of any age is free to look at.

What you are doing is not paying money to force your ad in front of people in a certain age.
I will be utterly astounded if this "study" is replicated. I will not be remotely surprised if they sell it the gullible fools in public service who don't treat lie detectors with the utter contempt they deserve.

I think it's more about the commoditization of employees than anything else. Big companies seem to have trended to thinking of and treating their employees as commodities. A piece of furniture that can be swapped in and out at will. I don't know that it's willful discrimination against older workers so much as willful disregard as to whether or not they're getting the best employees.

A company like Facebook probably doesn't really care that they get the absolute best employee for 90% of their open positions. They go with the group that's going to get them the largest number of acceptable hits so they don't need to work as hard to filter out candidates that they're not interested in.

This is all speculation on my part, I have nothing to cite in this regard. I think it's fairly obvious that if Facebook filters out over-40's for these 90% of jobs right up front they will have less work to do gleaning the wheat from the chaff.

For the remaining 10% of high-productivity/high-value workers they probably wouldn't use such pre-screening and do more targeted recruiting. Again, this is all a guess on my part, but it makes sense. Not saying it should be legal, but I can understand why they do it.
If you believe they might work, the operator can do a good cop/bad cop routine with the machine to get you to admit to stuff, frequently stuff that never happened. But they could do the same with a magic rock if you believed in that.

So I'm guessing it's the runtime itself that expects to interact with things like an OS scheduler. Does that mean if you attempted to write an OS in Go, you'd basically have to do it without many of the features of the runtime (that provide the abstractions that are useful for application progamming?). That would be pretty crummy.
FTFA: "We’d previously been using Chronos (with Mesos) as a cron job scheduling system, but it was no longer meeting our reliability requirements and it’s mostly unmaintained (1 commit in the last 9 months, and the last time a pull request was merged was March 2016) Because Chronos is unmaintained, we decided it wasn’t worth continuing to invest in improving our existing cluster."

Though Chronos has a release recently with a bunch of fixes, Mesos is inevitably fading as a legacy platform.
It's a shame that you put the effort in to write the article on your own platform. Then someone copies it onto a popular platform like hackernoon with more exposure.

I wonder how often this happens to people ...
IIRC from one of their talks.... K8s was supposed to be Borg 2.0 in many respects. They decided early on in development that it was a good tool and had lots of potential, but "fixing" Borg would be less work than replacing it. So k8s takes the Borg 2.0 concepts without being any of Borg code.
Shower thought: in theory, if driverless cars completely replaced humans on the roads, then all the regional and international variations in road rules could be unified with a software update.
So the janitor should analyse and quantify what difference he will make to the companies bottom line before he wipes those skidmarks off?

Not everything is quantifiable like that. If I'm writing code and I take the time to make it 30% faster then it won't make a difference to our bottom line. If that's done everywhere then customers will like us more, be more likely to stay with us and be more likely to recommend us, but that can't be quantified in my day to day work.
Companies that give away core technology for "Free" are always plagued with the perceptive one way door that gets created. There is never a good way out of the situation for either party. The company got the benefit of building a client base with low barrier to entry, but then struggles to maintain profitability after their support/ops burden increases. On the other side, the customer bases profitability and business model was hinged on their ability to innovate to reduce their margins, and now are forced to drastically alter their business plans.

The solution here is for citrix to roll back time, launch a new supported product, and then slowly close the faucet of new features going into the free product. They would have then created an opportunity to pitch the new innovations and migrate their existing customer base to the new platform. The only problem with this thinking (besides the time machine), are the competitors that are releasing more innovative products at the same "free" price point.

Companies, please learn from this: Anything given for free has no value until you try to take it away.
I am trying to see any sample projects to learn, if its possible pls share
Poor example though. There is plenty of car traffic in Japan about everywhere, and parking yout bike is not free at all. And cyclists are super dangerous here, not respecting any rule on the road. I was almost hit by bikes going in the wrong direction several times. And mamachari riders are no exception. they speed up on the sidewalks without any regard for pedestrians.

I feel like the best and largest OSS projects are already this...at least a sizable portion of them.

On the other hand, I don't quite know where I stand on accepting donations for writing free software. I feel like it leads to perverse incentives for maintainers and contributors alike.

My feeling here is that the best way to earn a living off of OSS is writing books about it, selling support, speaking engagements, etc. Someday I would like to earn a living from writing OSS, but I'm not super-inclined to do these other things either. That really just leaves working for a company like RedHat, and drawing a salary to write OSS. That just means your work isn't self-directed anymore.

What I'd really like to see happen, if it hasn't happened already, is a funding platform that only accepts donations from "qualified donors" and funds a small, curated list of projects/people and anonymizes whose funding goes to what projects/people. Projects/People are selected by a mix of donor votes, community votes and some equivalent of PageRank. Funding allocation is split up the same way, trying to divert the most money to the highest-impact people & projects.

Not that I have the slightest inclination that anyone would want to use this :(

> I think most people are concerned with making sure they're not actively supporting and organization currently behaving badly (and I pretty strongly believe that Uber isn't)

I don't think that's morally right to only consider that. Even still, I don't see a reason not to use Lyft. They are more or less identical products at this point. One is owned by a company that used to do some pretty bad things. Why support the people that funded that and people that supported those people? Why take the risk it could ever happen again (even if you assure us it won't)? If you fall within those original parameters I set, I think there's no excuse for not using Lyft.
That's fair. I think that running product takes a lot of customer empathy and you're right, the founding engineer can definitely be the customer advocate. One worry I have would be whether someone in that role would be too interested in the 'how' of building, rather than the 'what' and the 'why' which are so important for product. Hope it works out for you!

Another role I left off was CEO, but that one seems less likely than product.
Yeah, that’s why I host all my projects on Github Pages. Everything is “free” (included in the Github service I already pay for) and I don’t have to worry about server costs or maintenance.
I have a feeling that using a UI that lacks haptic feedback will be exhausting to use over extended periods of time.

The idea of waving my arms around in the air for ten hours does not fill me with anticipatory glee!
I recently got pretty sick and ended up in the hospital. I met some people who were pretty bad off. I met a guy with one lung and lung cancer - he realistically has a very short life ahead of him. He’s not traveling or checking off his bucket list. He’s in and out of the hospital, on oxygen periodically and is taking a variety of opiate pain killers.

I have to agree with you, when you’re told you only have a year to live, it’s probably unrealistic that you’re going to be making the most and enjoying the days ahead of you.

It’s important to make every minute count and enjoy it while you can. Don’t wait until you have a year left.

This is truth. I had a health scare some years ago and in the face of my mortality while enduring some unpleasant symptoms, my career and all my side projects were just about the last thing I could muster any thought for. The ever-present discomfort became a void in my existence and there was no other thought. It sucked.

> Even professionally, shops with good admins/devops will usually prefer CentOS/openSUSE over RHEL/SLES, since they can handle almost all the support themselves.

And shops with large enough IT budgets and huge downside risk (like finance) will pay for the SLA guarantee because ultimately it's really cheap insurance against the cost of catastrophic events.

I've been in banks where the admins were the definitive authors of books written in their space, but where CentOS or RHEL on a server was chosen purely on the basis of the value of the service being hosted.

This is only true of a periodic sound. This is because when the wavelength is smaller than the distance between the ears, there is aliasing in the phase information (ambiguity). However, the overall group delay is perceptible at the onset and cessation of the tone. That doesn't give you much time to latch on to the direction. At high frequencies, though, level differences are useful. You know which ear is facing that chirp and which isn't.
