10 Mobile App Business Ideas to Launch Your App Startup
You can encapsulate just fine with a routed architecture.

A further quarter of a billion dollars in stock options per quarter is insane when stacked against a $15-$20b market cap. Practically no sustaining public companies operate like that, with that scale of constant dilution.
I said a while back they were optimising their algorithm for rage and that The Donald would be good for business. I think they are probably still buy because I suspect they will be bought - such a feature of the Internet it is hard to imagine a conversation, TV show or live event without it.
Kubernetes takes you to serverless, where you don't care about the hardware.

The next shift is what I've called "stackless" - why do you even care what platform it runs on?

All you want to be able to do is have your application run somewhere.

Kubernetes goes some way towards that, but there's another abstraction layer needed.

Similar to how Docker was an abstraction further to Kubernetes and away from Vagrant.

This is something I wrote about this not long ago[1].

This used to be very common for machine shops to have wood floors, I found an article detailing it with some pictures. I worked in a couple shops that had wood floors, they were nothing to look at, it was an industrial setting after all.
https://web.pa.msu.edu/services/machine-shop/shopfloor.htm

At Amazon in the new Day 1 building their main staircase to the lobby is built from wood ends and it is done very nicely. It looks great. There's probably pictures online of that.

edit, I found one picture from a geekwire article. Unfortunately you can't see the grain, the picture is from a far. https://cdn.geekwire.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/20161107...

Generally, enterprise class laptops have reasonable Linux support, though it may take a few months for a new model to get sorted out and then there may be corner cases around weird hardware.

Some enterprise class laptops are available with Linux though not always through the website (about 18 months ago, I was required to phone call about a Thinkpad). Sometimes, Linux comes with a discount proportional to the Windows license (Dell was doing this at least as recently as last year).

Historically, Thinkpads are "the Linux laptop." The community of Linux on Thinkpads is very strong. https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkWiki
More likely some of those predators will learn to avoid them rather than become immune to their poison. Hopefully they will learn that before they are reduced to unsustainable levels.
By a 'mailing list-type setup', do you mean an actual email mailing list?

In my opinion, such a suggestion is naïve, when the masses flock to Facebook/YouTube for their digital 'comical' content. I say this without a better suggestion myself, other than the obvious need for a purging of the endemic memeification of the Facebook News Feed.
Having recently read a lot more literature about the big picture social issues in the US from the 30 through the 70s the late '60s and early '70s was a time of stupid groups reacting to other stupid groups with tragic consequences.

The militant leftists and their bombs, the hippies and their antiwar stuff, the racists, the FBI/government and it's BS, the black power groups and their violence, they all were reacting to each other while failing to understand in any meaningful way the grievances of the other groups in any meaningful way.

Cracking down on the millitant left was right. They were the second the most destructive domestic terrorist movement (the post civl war KKK is 1st by a mile). The government at the time used it as an excuse to cast way to wide of a net because of personal beliefs (in aggregate) and because they didn't understand the where the problem was coming from. It's unfortunate.

If people hadn't been such idiots in the late 1960s there wouldn't have been a millitant left to crack down on. If civil rights of the late 1960s or the Vietnam war had happened a decade apart from each other we probably wouldn't be mopping it up in 2017. It didn't so here we are trying to wind down the war on drugs and demilitarize the police (and we'll probably revert some gun control too since it's part of the same anti-minority, anti-hippy package of knee jerk decisions).

In the 2040s we'll probably be in the same situation trying to wind down the post 9/11 expansion of government surveillance.

Microsoft Writing Style Guide
Yes it still is. I found both the NT 4 leak and the Windows 2000 leak while I was doing some research into the Windows kernel.

Lots of cool stuff in both; the NT 4 leak had a lot more of the cool kernel stuff, like a DEC Alpha HAL.

I don’t recall the links and won’t share them. I also notified Microsoft about them when I found them, so they may have been taken down already. But it’s the internet so realistically they’re still up somewhere.

You can also find the Windows Research Kernel, which is slightly sanitized and leaves out NTFS, HAL, PnP, and power management, but is slightly newer coming from the win 2k3 era.
> “But the fact that so many ant species appear to have little or no chemical defense against microbial pathogens is also important.”

In the study, they only test growth inhibition of S. epidermidis, which is far from proving a broad claim about "microbial pathogens." In the actual paper, they do note that they need to test on a wider variety of organisms.
I don't know what my current company's policy is, but my last company had a two week at a time maximum. Although, all policies were flexible at managements discretion. Just by asking I was able to take 3.5 weeks off.

While I expect a lot of people to not agree with what I am going to say, I believe this is much more linked to the political moment than to Twitter having a problem with "handling controversy". This just feels like an excuse to find a way to filter human communication, at this point.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a Brazilian and the latest years' politics headlines have been flooding Twitter around here too, but spurious political tweets tend to be much more boosted by people who don't agree with them -- they just feel that urge to answer it or create a hashtag against it -- than by people actually supporting said tweets.
Even when we know that each one is fully automatic, and really (after staging) the booster return is just two instances of $booster, it's still absolutely magnificent.
Twitter staff != Twitter Inc
Thank you. That makes sense, although upon first reading I was worried by 'validation supposed to be done on the client side' ;)
A lot of it is due to an effort to make it work in as many environments with as few external dependencies (and environment control) as possible. The "simplest solution which could possibly work".

Personally, I'd rather just bring on ipv6. But, in my case, we don't have enough people who understand ipv6 (and it's barely supported in AWS) to use it ourselves.
Wouldn't that just be a struct?
Seems like a lot of out of context clips to push a narrative, standard project veritas stuff.

Like the clip about banning certain groups of people: the engineer says "it's going to ban a certain way of talking". You might take from this based on the video that he's talking about inadvertently banning right-leaning users. Well, what if he's talking about banning racism or messages that use ((subtle dog-whistles)) instead of overt racism?

Also, not many people like Trump, especially not in left-leaning areas (like where Twitter is based). Are employees not allowed to voice their dislike of a very dislikable man, while drinking at a social event?
It would've been more accurate to say, "Twitter accepts Trump as a necessary evil."

Conflict -> emotional human response on social media is good for business.

Unsurprisingly, Twitter is not a single person with a single opinion that can be reduced to a few words.

Twitter’s shareholders love the fact that Trump uses Twitter in the way that he does. Many users love reading and discussing Trump’s tweets, precisely because they despise him.

The forthcoming Julia 0.7 release will provide warning messages for important (and breaking) changes that the community has been clamoring for. I don't think users are "worried" so much as they are planning to review and update their code accordingly. For example, I don't expect my existing 0.5 code to work without substantial revisions. This is the last window to improve the language proper before the 1.0 release, after which users like me will expect stability.
I don't know of a set in stone amount, it's not uncommon for people to save up a month to go stay with family in Asia. US based company. The team plans accordingly, I think it's a good idea, though I tend to not take as much time as I should sometimes.

I get that. I'm saying the reason you can't universally have an array type with the length attached as a struct is because of aliasing. Precisely because you couldn't have two arrays use the same values in memory. Otherwise, the allocator couldn't keep track of the memory with an array like reference.

Consider, in c, you can have an array and pass it in two parts to two different functions. Each getting passed a different length. You couldn't do that if the array had it's length as an intrinsic property.

You could have split the function space into operations that work on parts of an array and those that work on a full array. So, not claiming this as a full blocker. And I don't know which is ultimately better. We know where we are. Seems easy to speculate we could have avoided a lot of errors. I just don't know if I agree it is guaranteed.
Nah, this is standard stuff for SpaceX. They always get signal dropouts and someone always says "conspiracy!"

They're not interested in the extra hassle of continuity for the sake of putting on a live show. The droneship has tons of cameras, the booster has tons of telemetry, that's all they're interested in.

(if you must spin a conspiracy, the one where they deliberately don't upgrade to keep their fans guessing is more credible - it's zero effort)
Its definitely better to have a job you enjoy rather than one you hate. You spend a fair bit of your life at it.
Ah you're talking about short scale and long scale. Actually most English speaking countries use short scale, even in the UK for official sources. It's unfortunate that there are so many hiccups in communicating numbers and units even with the SI system.
We advise 3 weeks but you can take longer if you have it available and discuss with your manager first.
All of the things you mentioned worked and had good enough performance. There was no crappy version of the iPhone which ran out of battery in 1h and took seconds to refresh when scrolling.

So obviously they thought about the performance aspect from the start.
Nice. I recently bought an edgerouter X and I set it up with openvpn. I have to try this.
How about a federated subscription? Form some kind of single login subscription model that supports several websites that are not necessarily corporately affiliated. The more sites in your federation the more clout it has. It could follow the fremium model to not turn everyone away yet allow the majority of good content to have a monitary return. I see this as an another potential answer to declining newspaper quality. The interent hasn't broken the law that says you get what you pay for.
Single page has really gone out of style for experienced talent (if ot ever was in for those people). People switch jobs too much and the way resumes steer stored and read has changed since that was the standard. Mine is three dense pages and that is still heavily trimmed.

The most important part of my resume is the top third of the first page that lists skills, technologies, and finance specific information that allow a recruiter or target person to easily see I do and get a feeling for my career path without having to go into the job specific details yet. I don't really see a way to do something like that.

That's true. You can supposedly run a program assembled or compiled in the 60's on a z14 that you buy today.

No limits here. In the US with 4-5 weeks (depending on length of employment) of vacation per year. We have people who say "see ya" at the end of November and we don't see them again until mid-January.
Why is this not evoking a stronger response from the public? Or globally? Mass surveillance has always been a troubling possibility with computer vision.

I remember a client who approached us a few years ago to develop software to surveil his employees in departmental store (containing no particularly special commodity). To track his employees 24-7. We refused to take up the project. I can't believe we are on the way to implement to the same idea at this large a scale!

No matter what the short term benefits are, I believe the long term effects are going to be very very unpleasant. Orwell's world doesn't seem too far off.

I believe in NL, there is also a minimum : each employee should at least have a 2 week vacation, uninterrupted, each year.
I'm from the US, and I've never worked for a company that regulated a limit. You only had to check with HR first & ensure you weren't negatively impacting your projects.

Sounds to me like your company got burned by someone taking advantage of their PTO, then overcompensated with this rule.

If your other coworkers aren't happy about it either, band together and bring it up as something to talk about. Explore other solutions together as a company.

Why would you want to measure your life?

You will only end up comparing your life to others, (which is not a particularly good thing to do in my opinion).
There was a simple scanning system called "Policheck" that was introduced in most source trees; it checked against a list of keywords. It didn't prevent checkins IIRC, but it flagged files for attention (it's been a while, and I never personally ran into a policheck hit).

The list included the obvious "dirty" words, and milder words like "idiot" and "moron". Surprising inclusions were references to the DOJ, the Microsoft consent decree with the DOJ, and Janet Reno.

I'd encourage Clojure fans to contribute monthly, even in the smallest amount.

A healthy ecosystem has a compound effect (like a feedback loop), which can result in a greater abundance of Clojure jobs.

Thankfully Clojure doesn't need to be 'saved' (it's a timeless idea!), but well I often read complaints around its job market and open source ecosystem.

As an example, say you get some VC funding. Can you absolutely trust Clojure(Script) and its tooling? How well will non-senior hires perform? I for one would be tempted to go for something with more traction like Elixir + Reason.

I adore Clojure and all that, but in the end details matter, especially under budget/time constraints.

Of course, this is a (perceived) situation we can change.

Do they define a longer vacation as a sabbatical? Or is there a specific business reason why someone would be limited to just two weeks? Is your employer in the US or another country? What state is your employer in, if it's in the US?
Good news! We don't need a Rust Together for this: Boyant is sponsoring all that work. An initial version shipped a month ago: https://crates.io/crates/h2
I don't buy these arguments. You hit on a pathological case in Go where Python managed to be faster. That's not remotely typical, and even the "just use C/Cython/Numpy" is a huge oversell--there are some problems that are amenable to dropping into a lower level language, but many more are not. At best, it's just very, very hard to make Python as fast as unoptimized Go.

Besides performance, CGo and tooling seem to make up the bulk of your criticisms. I agree that Python's C interop story is strictly better than Go's, but this seems like throwing the baby out with the bathwater for a huge suite of applications. I also strongly disagree that Python's tooling is better; I think your 20 years of experience with it has biased you against the frustrations the rest of us have when we try to pick it up. By contrast, I've found Go's tooling to be superb--profiling, testing, benchmarking, documentation, etc all included out of the box. There are still holes (like debugging), but I daresay Go's tooling is categorically better than Python's.

Yes, they are. They cannot interact directly, but they can via "virtual" electron/positron pairs (or actually any other pair of charged elementary particle + antiparticle).
