Just as someone who's had to do the whole Farmer's Market thing for a while, (on the Capitol Square in Madison Wisconsin), I think I should point out that many many organic farmers do indeed use some fairly high tech tools and techniques to simplify the work. Different producers are using everything from the ultra high tech sort of "farm in a shipping container" systems inside of an area like Madison, to greenhouses that integrate natural climate control techniques out in places like Verona or Sun Prairie area, to gps assisted tilling out in areas like Spring Green. I think people would be surprised at how high tech agriculture has become.

The original poster is correct when (s)he asserts that there would not be much meaningful work for an unskilled laborer in most sectors of modern agriculture. But that's not a bad thing, that's a good thing.
An excellent point, had totally forgotten :)
Ya, but like you said, it would have to be a significant spike, particularly for a 38 minute window. I haven't heard anything reported.

What I find interesting is not this screenshot, but the fact that most commenters here don't even question if we are being told the truth as to what happened. Yet here we are talking about UI/UX.
Well if it was a proper test run (also to check procedures), the test too would have this extra confirmation.

Maybe changing the challenge to "HOLY FUCKING SHIT YES THERE REALLY IS A FUCKING NUKE COMING AT US SEND THE FUCKING MESSAGE!!!" in the real challenge would work better. Of course, when you have to push the button like that, I'm not sure if you could still type straight ;).

But yeah: how do you properly write a test for a potentially dangerous operation?

A serverless functions platform like SanFran can be deployed on your existing Kubernetes cluster. It will sit besides all your existing apps on there using resources only when needed. You can have many more services (functions) running / deployed than the size of your cluster.

It can be a way for anyone within the organization to deploy a function they need. For example marketing needs a quick endpoint to handle Mailchimp registrations or for Stripe payments. The function will not take up resources on the cluster until its needed. Functions will run in a isolated, devops free environment.

Technically you're not running on top of another framework, your javascript function is just running in a NodeJS instance thats managed there are no extra layers. Your NodeJS instance is running on Kubernetes but then why do I need Kubernetes is an entirely different discussion.
Very smart! This is a few line of code away from a css class based mini tracking framework...

Aside from the obvious, this could also be used as a fallback (restricted) A/B testing for no js users ? I'm thinking data about just what was hovered, clicked, and media query allows for some basic UI testing of responsive websites.

How would you test whether the big red button with the locked cover still works though? I mean that's the kinda thing you don't want to see broken (mechanical failure, rust, etc), and these systems can remain unchanged for decades. You have to be able to test the real thing somehow, which gives a chance for accidental triggering.
There is "abuild" to build packages, and "apk" for users to install packages. abuild is definitely still in shell (~2600 lines).

I'm not sure if apk used to be in shell, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were. If you have a link to the old version I'm interested.

I think the main reason not to use shell for the user side is the version solver. To install packages, you have to solve dependency constraints, which is actually an NP-complete problem! Those heuristics are best coded in C.

In contrast, the build side doesn't have to do anything like that, or it can just shell out to "apk" if it does.

Modern agriculture is more varied than that. There are large scale farms with minimal unskilled work, yes. But there also is plenty of harvesting work still done by unskilled migrant workers, especially in Florida and the Southwestern USA.

Coercion – a problem larger than authentication
It exists in the Netherlands (although I've never seen anyone fined for it)
Personally I've always used x509 client certs with a self signed root authority / intermediate authority for internal tooling at companies i've worked for. This is possible because 1) i happen to already have a good understanding of openssl and how to use it, secure keys 2) i have control over the devices im provisioning so i can make them trust my root cert for timing/x509/etc.

It would be really cool if there was a service like letsyncrypt that would provision "client" certs for this sort of use but revocation lists and things are a little annoying for large scale use.

EDIT: Another reason why this can be a hassle is that while Safari/IE/Chrome use the system to evaluate trusted certs on all OSs i've tested, firefox uses its own implementation so you have to add all the certs yourself. This is ... frustrating from a management perspective because you have to keep two sets of docs explaining what to do for new hires and etc.

EDIT 2: I've always been curious if its a net security benefit that firefox does this. On one hand, they are less vulnerable to OS-specific attacks and can automatically un-trust root certs that are compromised for whatever reason, but you're then trusting Mozillas implementation of something that is admittedly very complex.
>New technologies require new ways of organizing things...

I think it's pretty clear by now that organizing whole cities around the automobile was a huge step in the wrong direction and the sooner we begin to correct it the better. Just look at Copenhagen as a shining example of a city that began re-focusing its traffic on actual people (and not f*ing metal boxes taking up way too much space) decades ago.
They are quantum programs. The bell state program you posted is not really enough to show how you would use this SDK. Here is a better example [0] that shows how intermediate quantum computers will be used to solve optimization problems.

Personally I think it goes better in this scenario when the manager/tech lead is not the one at the keyboard. That way the person who's learning can make a lot of the decisions while bouncing ideas off the other person. If it just becomes watch my manager do some work it's very hard to focus and learn.
Maybe drivers slow down to contemplate the sign!
There's a lot we can learn from aviation: accident retrospectives, checklists, master caution alarms, crew relationship management, human factors research, etc.

However, my knowledge of these things is a bit piecemeal and anecdotal. Does anyone know a good book on these things?
At first glance, I read it as "caution, children at play". But I assume that if this is a standard sign, it would be covered on the drivers license test in that country.
Hey that text block is unreadable on mobile. Here it is readable

>In the cockpit of every jet fighter is a brightly painted
lever that, when pulled, fires a small rocket engine
underneath the pilot's seat, blowing the pilot, still in

earth. Ejector seat levers can only be used once, and
their consequences are significant and irreversible.

>Applications must have ejector seat levers so that users
can "occasionally" move persistent objects in the

inadvertently fire the ejector seat when all he wants to
do is make some minor adjustment to the program.

Several indents like that make code blocks, which respect original new line placements and are usually unreadable on mobile.

That's nonsense. Jaywalking is not a crime or offence here. You cause an accident, you're paying.

//Edit, I stand corrected. It's a very minor offence, costing you 10€ if there's no signal, if there's a signal 5€ if traffic is endangered and 10€ if an accident was caused. 10€ for crossing the Autobahn (or, more likely, your life)

I believe that nowhere in my response did I suggest that you be incompetent in your management or be a lousy teacher.

I specifically mention that you look for particularly hard or challenging problems in which to do the pair programming precisely because it's an opportunity to both "scratch the itch" as well as teach. In every group I've ever worked in, worked with, or managed there were inexperienced people and those people tend to get less-interesting tasks simply because they lack the experience or knowledge required for hard, challenging, or critical problems. The best way to speed up their learning curve is to give them tasks that exceed their current capabilities, and the best way to minimize the risk is to provide the safety net of a more experienced and/or capable partner to help them learn to think through the problem and catch errors. As an added bonus it is entirely possible that the more experienced partner actually learns something from the pairing as well.

For anyone looking to try this out I would recommend Google Kubernetes cluster (choose the cheap preemptive vm machine type) and you can have a 5 node Kubernetes cluster running for less than 10 bucks a month. Google's new pricing means they don't charge for Kubernetes just for the instances. SanFran can be installed with a single Helm command.

Very likely, every time you type "soon" and it corrects to "son", the probability of the change gets increased. So, the more it errs, the more wrong it will be in the future.

About it only replacing after you start writing, the probability of "son" must grow faster than the one of "soon" after you type "so". If there were such a huge bug, you would be seeing a new word every time, not always the same one.

>"Ultimately, both the word jaywalking and the concept that pedestrians shouldn't walk freely on streets became so deeply entrenched that few people know this history"

The article makes it seem like the only reason the rules exist as they do now is because some industry players forced us into this situation.

No. The rules exist now because the majority of people agreed that cars should be given the road and people should be given the sidewalks, and that people darting to and fro on the street would be very bad for everyone involved.

Sure the car industry backed these ideas, but people accepted them because they made sense.
To reduce air pollution the Chinese government forbad heating with coal in some regions and installed gas pipes there. It turned out they severely underestimated the spike in demand in winter and the rising gas prices. Residents illegally switched back to coal heating because heating with gas was 2-3x more expensive. Later, the government officially sanctioned coal heating for the time being. So the Chinese government tries to get away from coal but it’s not as easy.

When it's built in your muscle memeory and you're a bit 'stressed during an interview', yes it's difficult to write code without your normal set of movement shortcuts and having to adapts to an alternate interface language.

Yes, it's annoying, especially for old timers like me that really know their tools.
No apologies necessary. I wasn't vehemently disagreeing with the parent so much as saying that the cost-benefit analysis is worthwhile.

I do some IIoT stuff, so I have a little experience here. Many of the lower cost PLCs and industrial edge devices have no better environmental characteristics than a Raspberry Pi. They just happen to be more expensive by comparison because they're competing in a market with much more expensive devices. In many cases, as you suggested, buying those devices is a false economy.

My point is simply that they're not that bad, and like you said, one should truly consider the lifecycle costs.
Fighting polio is worthy, but embezzling $26M while lying about fighting polio is not. That's the problem/risk.

Indeed. Pair-programming isn't "programmer with an audience."
Sure, but how many people run a CDC 6000 emulator today? Sure, there's a niche, albeit it a very small one. Certainly not enough to warrant the fuss that people tend to raise.

Why would someone in a 100 years be using an emulator from today (say SNES) inside a Windows emulator? Seems like if there was any interest at all some folks would write a native SNES emulator in the native hard/OS of the time. There's nothing about Windows that makes is especially ideal for emulating consoles for the last 40 years.

What's "sheeding"?
One problem with interfaces like this is that they are an abjection of ownership. The situation probably doesn't warrant a dedicated designer, and the developer who make it, probably thought 'I'm not a designer, that will do'.

The amount of times I've heard 'Just add a button to do it' from 'backend developers'..

The point is, software is there to serve a user, and if you can't envisage the user using the software, then you don't understand the requirements. It's not a design question.

Too much responsibility is deferred as 'design' when it's actually a fundamental part of solving the problem at hand.

Not that design isn't also important, but the perception that usability == design needs to change.
You can proxy WebRTC just fine, so of course it can be another way.
Papier Machine Vol.0: the interactive electronic paper toy
Yes, a copy is kept somewhere — that somewhere could be application memory, a local file or database on the server where the application is running, or another server that provides this as a service (which may in turn store in memory or disk/database). Which approach is chosen depends on factors like performance/load capacity, availability/redundancy requirements (answering questions like, "if a server goes down, will users be logged out?"), etc.

> Antifa, just like the protesters in the 60s are a bunch of naive kids led by people exploiting that naivety for political gain.

Just like the kids the US government sent to Vietnam. That war was "Moral-based violence" and the idea that the counter reaction was the real evil is insane.

Edit: There are plenty more recent examples of the government using moral justifications for war - "They hate our freedoms". "Axis of evil". "You're either with us or you're with the terrorists".

If "Moral-based violence" is scary, the US government is its number one peddler, not the protestors.
This was actually done in Argentina (it was called plan jefes e jefas). Then they converted it into a basic welfare scheme with no requirement to do the jobs (which was mostly stuff like "help the infirm and elderly").

The majority of people continued turning up to work afterwards because they found it intrinsically rewarding.
What is the provenance of this image? How do we know this is real? While UI/UX designers are falling all over themselves with their meme fest I didn't see any reference for the source of this image.

If you read the Washington Post account, it says the interface was a drop down menu of which this picture is not of. See:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nation/wp/2018/01/1...

And perhaps not surprisingly some news outlets are using an unverified image from a tweet as a news story.
It is much worse. It contextually averages everybody, so if 95% of the people are oppressed, but always on different ways, it also doesn't matter.
Those signs differ from country to country, but the design is very similar. In Germany this sign looks like this

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verkehrsberuhigter_Bereich#/me...

The official meaning is "begining of a traffic calming area" (verkehrsberuhigter Bereich) but most people call it "Spielstraße" (literal translation "street for playing"). I don't know if the sign was designed after the common term for those streets or vice versa.
