I think that idea of people in tech that designer is expressing himself when doing app design might be part of answer. We see it as something suspect, waste of time. Technical graphical design is not designer expressing himself. It is more about what target audience likes and is attracted to.
I'm curious, do you wear baggy pants or not keep your phone in your pocket? I use android phones, but anything much over a 5" screen is too large for me to get in or out of my pocket while sitting down.

Also I know my hands are on the small side, but various phones/phablets the size of the 7+ are uncomfortable for me to hold, and obviously impossible for me to use with one hand.
The annual fees to use the algorithm is probably not substantial and a quirk of the agreement, and the substantial part of the licensing agreement is the 1 million or so shares that they received.

The share grant must have been fairly early on the history of the company (or else Google won't be able to use PageRank, which was fundamental to Google Search), probably pre-Series A. Google itself wasn't worth that much back then, so the 1M shares was probably bigger slice of a much smaller pie that eventually got diluted through later funding rounds.

Agreed that the explanation is a bit lacking. This uses the phase difference between the signals of multiple pulsars, as indeed the individual pulses are not marked with a timestamp like in GPS.

Imagine you have two pulsars each with a 1ms signal, that don't move relative to you and emit signals that are in sync at their source. If the tops of both signals overlap at your location, you are in one one of many possible circles that are centered around the line between the pulsars, where the difference in distance to the pulsars is N times 300 km (distance light travels in 1 ms). By adding additional pulsars, you reduce your possible position to a set of points, and finally a single point.

To generalize this to a set of pulsars with different timings and for whom you don't know the exact location, you need to know the phase difference for all signals at a given reference point in space and time. The same procedure will then give you your current position and time relative to the reference point.

Apple to Reduce its Net cash reserve to zero
I will elaborate:

I lived in Portland until approximately 2 years ago, close to the river. I volunteered on one occasion with some activists at this event:
https://www.google.com/amp/s/articles.oregonlive.com/portlan...

I am no saint. It was a short walk from my office. But the whole thing was disgusting, heartbreaking. This was a bad situation on many fronts, and nothing like a solution on any side, but the idea was to get cyclists who enjoyed this nature path to stop complaining. This is the gist of how the city has dealt with the problem for many years. I was pleased to see someone else on HN mention it but I wasn’t surprised. It’s hard to miss on a visit. I lived there for 8 years. Of course some of the homeless come from other places but an enormous amount of them come from Portland. I have seen children sleeping on cardboard under Morrison bridge one night. 2 children with their parents. They were not there for long only because they were strategically camping in a very lit spot at a busy traffic light. But my point is the city is very irresponsible in their dealings with the problem. The city only cares about new development and bringing more wealthy folk to town. The loopholes they allow landlords to use for building-wide evictions are supposedly part of what has exacerbated the problem. I do not know all the specifics.
Considering that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pytheas centuries earlier sailed far enough north to encounter drift ice, it doesn't seem crazy to think they could. OTOH it's harder to believe in regular voyages without more records.

School buses are also more or less a long tank. They are built like rolling fortresses, they weigh a lot, and they are going to "win" any collision with anything less than a train most of the time. (You do not need the kids to wear seatbelts because, again... really nothing is going to stop that bus.) I saw an the remnants of an accident between a car and a school bus once. The car was smashed to bits. The bus did not look like it had been hit.

This, of course, doesn't scale. If everyone drove buses then buses would not be as safe. And let's not even talk about gas mileage...

If you go to their "packages" page[1] and select "premium", it gives you a table with "requests (per period)" and "month-to-month (price per period), and it is indeed "up to 100" for $99.00. For up to 500 tweets per request.

Seems pretty clear, though I can't fathom why they chose "periods" rather than "months". Crazy expensive.

> The line you quoted is not specific to AI/ML, it's the fundamental rule of programming

Very good point. Though the OP's observation comes with additional poignancy/force in the context of artificial intelligence. A lot of people are fine with the idea of machines being told explicitly what to when it comes to doing "mechanical" things. I would guess most of these laypeople do not realize that the same sausage-making process is involved when it comes to having machines do human-like things.
Is there anything that can be done about this other than to just accept it I wonder.
Definitely not, from experience. I think the opening poster means that Adyen needs such a large reserve, since I definitely know subscriptions-based startups that don't have any reserve with Stripe
Interesting, yes that’s fair. I even think non-competes while being paid (not post termination) are fair. But being totally restricted (or largely restricted) from non-competing work doesn’t seem so fair.
Google's Diane Greene: people were 'grossly underestimating' size of its cloud
phew :)
I think it's important to judge the support model in context of what kubernetes is...

As an API based cloud-management platform Kubernetes has a robust, stable, core topped with multiple layers of abstractions that build on, and use, one another. There are relatively few dead-ends in the projects history, and those have all tend to be superseded by a much nicer, much smarter, much easier abstractions.

An operating system going out of support after 9 months is a total show stopper, naturally. But Kubernetes runs on top of those 'stable' layers. It's stability is in its primitives and the physical API contracts. The primitives being introduces today don't magically impact my production cluster, and because kubernetes is built like a russian nesting doll of APIs there is very little incentive for the project to make any changes, much less hasty changes, much less poorly thought out changes, to the core APIs. Unlike many other dependencies the kubernetes changes impact deployment and management, but will rarely impact application-level concerns. If it worked in old kubernetes, it's generally gonna work in new kubernetes.

I feel absolutely no support-pressure to upgrade my on-prem installations when my deployments are cross-compatible with the updated versions on my cloud providers.

I feel a lot of developer-giddiness-pressure to upgrade my on-prem installations because me and my devs want the cool new things they're baking into the platform...

From my experience with k8s the issues are all related to running a linux cluster that uses docker and iptables -- a pretty unavoidable pain to run docker containers on a linux cluster, IMO. Support in this context broadly means a stable API, and a stable core, and Kubernetes has had those for a while now.
I'd be curious to know how much people are actually purchasing with Amazon. I have an echo in every room of my house. Yet, beyond the device purchase themselves, I do nothing with them that earns any money for Amazon. Buying stuff is just too cumbersome. I need to see my side by side price comparisons with pictures.
These are still claims without any context. It mostly depends on how experienced the programmer is. And most importantly, note that one never needs all the functionality from a framework. Typically it's only a very small part, and often the existing functionality in the framework does not match the requirements 100%.

In addition to the dev benefits, there is also a built in cloud scaling story and strategy.

It's not like every app needs that kind of robustness, but there is a certain calming security in knowing that if any part of your Kubernetes deployed app actually needs to go "web scale", or someone asks about 100 times the users you have ever considered, that the answer is straightforward and reasonably pre-configured.
> That way, you get the fastest and cheapest transactions possible.

Not currently. Have a look at the Nano cryptocurrency (renamed from RaiBlocks): it has instant and free transactions, and should be scalable (but this last part is not proven in practice yet). The instant and free is definitely true in practice already.

Recently a redditor calculated a single wind turbine could power 7000 transactions per second (https://www.reddit.com/r/nanocurrency/comments/7ucw1a/the_en...)

The new generation of cryptocurrencies is here to compete with the previous ones, and with the established financial services.

Exciting times.

On iOS 11, CALayer has a `continuousCorners` private property [0].

I did a spartan reverse engineering by recreating the UIBezierPath equivalent of the two types of radii found in the Apple Design Resources [1], then adding a convenience initializer on UIBezierPath that recreates the shape with arbitrary radius of the chosen kind (either UISwitch-like, or App Icon-like).

Earlier attempts include the fascinating Unleashing Genetic Algorithms on the iOS 7 Icon [2].

I would disagree about that.

Learning Django taught me a lot about the proper way to things. When I first started using it I implemented a lot of my own stuff myself (as I wasn't aware that the framework had certain features). I basically wrote my own equivalent of class based views before I understood Django's own. (http://ccbv.co.uk/ helps understand them a lot)

Reinventing Django's class based views is something that I have seen in a few inherited apps (like where I currently work).

If your application is going to be something long lived and gets a number of developers while in maintenance mode, then memorizing a standard framework is a good thing - new developers should be familiar with how a framework works - as opposed to needing to spend time going through someone else home grown code.

Then there is the issue that writing your own code will be untested relative to a framework that has some level of popularity.

Documentation is likely to be better with a framework as well.

(This is my perspective coming from a Python / Django background - I have noticed that JavaScript frameworks and libraries often have a lot more problems).

the valerie project[0] was a psychedelic folk band that toured the US playing screenings of "valerie and her week of wonders," a 1970 czech surrealist horror movie (highly recommended!). they were pretty awesome, especially for a one-off super obscure thing like that.

related but different: guitarist loren connors did a soundtrack for "the passion of joan of arc" (1928)[1] that I find incredibly moving. for those not familiar with connors' work, it comes from a kind of catholic guilt that makes his score and this particular film an artfully brutal pairing.

That's today. Back then, they wouldn't know whether there is even land. Imagine what it means to sail without maps or equipment in time when what we considered basic general knowledge about physics was not even there.

It would take as much courage as sending a manned mission to the Outer Solar system today.

Just global state. Simple example, a global variable that holds an allocated memory buffer. You initialize it at program startup and tear it down at the end (you can be sloppy and leave out the latter). While the program is running, you re-allocate as needed.

This is better in that it really is a very simple thing to do. There are no possible memory leaks. But what happens is much more explicit - you have precise control, and no bumpy control flow (much nicer for debugging).

But it doesn't have to be memory. If you want to look at my project https://github.com/jstimpfle/learn-opengl (careful - it's not tidied up. But I think it demonstrates my point), most resource state there is global module-wide state. I simply have init_module() and exit_module() pairs that I call from the main function. Problem solved. Not a headache at all.

The fact that the journal of machine learning is older than the term also doesn't say much. My disagreement with the previous poster seems to be about whether machine learning is a field of AI or not. Well- if it has a journal (and a conference) (or the other way around), then it's a field of study.
