My understanding is that the leaks were not complete source code. The leaks came from a third party company who was given a significant chunk (but not all) of the Windows source for development reasons (possibly driver development?). Can't compile partial code without weird hackery
Absolutely right here. If you're not an owner occupant it doesn't make sense. One other reason you want to be an owner occupant, in addition to financing, is that you're closer to the action, meaning your property will be far less likely to be ruined as you respond to things way faster.
They are in the process of adopting .NET 4.6.

No, that's the median full-time wage. It'll be just near $50,000 for 2018.

Two full-time incomes for a household, you can easily get to $85,000 to $120,000.

What you're referring to, includes every person that generates any bit of consequential income. Part-time workers, or people earning $8k-$10k over the Summer, are included in the total median figure (which is closer to $30k).
> it's impossible to be frugal when you have student loans bleeding you...through no fault of their own.

I had a little trouble parsing your logic there, student loans get forced on people?
This is irrelevant since you're an owner occupant. You're generally right, though. The goal with the strategy outlined is to hedge against that by living there yourself. That and tenants will protect you from appraisal gotchas.

It's not like a liter of fluid is just dumped into the lungs immediately... couple that with Rhonchi or Rales due to (what I presume) bronchitis that WAS diagnosed. You can't treat everyone that is Flu-like symptoms as if they are going to die of pneumonia. Doesn't make sense.

MULTI has yet to be installed in an actual building and from what I recall, they believed it would likely be used in new buildings that are designed with MULTI in mind rather than retrofitting older buildings.

It seems like a good use case in my mind, though I don't expect it would be implemented for at least several years while the new technology is adapted and tested in real-world scenarios
Increasing the wealth of the institution and giving donors life-after-death are both about serving the goals of the institution. I agree that excessive management fees can be a problem, but universities aren’t selling shares. The hedge fund’s gains serve the university’s mission, not to enrich some investor.

Universities shouldn’t be fundraisers and lobbyists with a sideline for teaching and research. Becoming independently wealthy frees them from that.
The landing case makes me wonder about the wisdom of Blue Origins choice of going with a larger engine, the BE-4 with 550,000 lbf for the New Glen vehicle. Much more thrust than a Falcon 9 landing on a single M1D. Surely they've run the numbers and find it viable though.

I agree with this for the most part, but wanted to point out that docker's first big success was as a dev tool. Solving the "it works on my machine" problem, or the "oh you forgot to install v13.1.2 of X and then uninstall it and then install v12.4 because that's the only way it works for some reason" problem. So, avoiding k8s in order to avoid docker seems odd.

That said, a good number of projects don't require anything special about the environment other than a runtime for the app's language, where the remaining dependencies can be explicitly included in the build. For those, I agree, jumping on docker/k8s right away is overkill.

An additional benefit of working with something like Heroku initially, is that it will help guide your devs to sticking with more tried and trusted stacks rather than everyone pulling in their own pet project into the business's critical path.
With python you then use wheels + virtualenv, for Ruby you can use bundler. Each language has this issue solved.

Using containers is essentially:

- uh, I have problem with these dependencies, dealing with RPMs is such a nightmare, I need to generate OS specific packages and there might be conflicts with existing packages that are used by the system...

- oh I know, let just bundle our app with the entire OS!
OK, 'legal c++' was a stretch - I take that back. I absolutely stand by the point that it's not reasonable to expect non-Qt tools to work as well as QtCreator on Qt-heavy projects.

You don't explicitly say so, but your answer suggests that your project uses Qt heavily. QtCreator is great for Qt projects - fine. That doesn't say much about it in general though. Other IDEs handling a Qt-heavy project less well than QtCreator says nothing about them other than that they can afford to ignore Qt.

Thanks for the link to verdigris. It's certainly less offensive than Moc, but if you're forced to use Qt you may as well use Moc.
>Prove it! I'm not American

LOL

You just discredited yourself. Everybody speeds in the US. To the point that obeying the speed limit can be quite dangerous in some cases.

Therefore, both men and women are speeding, but men are taking greater risks, speeding more. That's a problem, because a small increase in speed produces a large increase in kinetic energy. It's velocity squared:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy

The men are profiting by having a greater willingness to put their passengers and other drivers on the road in fatal danger. They are all breaking the law, but the men are more brazen about it.

Uber should solve this, because it is a serious problem. If you only look at the payment aspect, that is demonstrably easy to solve. Pay women more. Very easy.

If you want to solve the root problem, and not a symptom of the problem, then Uber needs to tackle the problem of drivers speeding. Automatic reporting of speeders is one approach. Another is to remove drivers from the pool of available drivers for any ill gotten time they gained by breaking the law. Save one minute with your fare because you drove 80MPH in a 70MPH zone on the freeway? Then make the driver invisible in app for one minute (or more) after dropping off the fare. There should be some cost imposed for breaking the law proportional to how fast the driver was going.

Frankly, society has a cost assigned to this already. They're called speeding tickets, and I see Uber drivers who should get them regularly.

What will Uber do when they switch to autonomous cars? Make the robots speed too? Given their willingness to break the law so brazenly as a company, I would not be surprised if this is what they do.
The tweet is in fact excellent, and the phenomenon predates Trump : stock markets will go down on good macro news in fear of interest rate hikes. This has been going on for at least 5 yrs, if not 10.

This fact has nothing to do with Trump.
This is why I primarily see Kubernetes as a set of low-level primitives for a PaaS to build upon.

We don't use Kubernetes at my shop, we've begun to use OpenShift though which layers PaaS tooling on top of it and the developers on my team love it. They create a deployment, point it at the git repository containing their code, set their configuration and the app is live - the underlying primitives are available if we need them still, but that's for me to worry about as the DevOps guy and not the developers.
The difference is that 18F builds technology the way they want, on a consulting basis to (non-tech) agencies that need tech. The old way was that non-tech agencies build/buy tech, with all the incompetence that comes from that route.
most GS-15s I knew grewing up in the DC area didn't have PHDs (and most PHD government employees I knew weren't GS-15s as GS-15s in research fields are rare)

As an aside (apologize for the semi humble-brag), I get a lot of mileage out of the fact that I'm the only person who was a GS-1 than many people have ever met, considering if one has a HS diploma, one is automatically a GS-2 :)
Nissan, a 100 year old company, has been developing electric vehicles for 20 years and has 1 mass produced vehicle that has sold over 300k units in the last 8 years.

I wonder how all these super expensive and complex weapons systems will do if there ever is an all-out war against an enemy who has access to advanced technology. It seems you should be able to bring down a 4 billion ship with a swarm of thousand drones for maybe 1 million each for the total cost of 1 billion. Same for aircraft carriers.

From what I have read about the maintenance needs of systems like the F-22 and B-2 someone who has simpler, easier to maintain airplanes should also have an advantage once things get busy.
> Twitter loves Trump.

A number of Twitter holdouts that I know finally created accounts this year. While they don't explicitly credit Trump for it, I think the constant barrage in the news made them feel like they were missing out.
Different launch. This wasn't the Falcon Heavy core, this was a previous rocket that was intended to crash (for testing purposes). There wasn't a barge out there to catch it (unlike the Heavy).

>Keverw: I wonder how the USDS is different than the 18F?

>>Matt_Cutts: USDS and 18F serve in pretty different roles. USDS often comes in when there's a crisis or a high presidential priority, because the organization sits in the office of the President. 18F is located in the General Services Administration and is especially strong when looking at the medium- to long-term goals of an organization [continues]
You have to account for the expected value of those two approaches.

The payout on your strategy (generate a lot of value for a lot of people) is high, but the probability of success is very low. (And the payout is usually tied to the stock market, if you're talking about generating corporate equity value, private or public.)

Conversely, a dollar saved is just a dollar plus it's return over time, but the probability of saving that dollar is essentially 100%.
Of course. The hope was that 18F's success would inspire agency leads and political leaders to to change IT government-wide
When talking about endurance running, my mind immediately jumps to Courtney Dauwalter. In Oct of 2017 she run the Moab 240 mile race by 10+ hours. She's had other "super hero" stories such as pushing through temporary blindless to finish another race. I don't know of any particular feature that allows her to achieve these feats of endurance but the "brain/body" connection seems to be huge part of it since her training volume/intensity doesn't seem to be that much different than her peers.
Live in a house with a bunch of people I'm not married to for years and years? No thank you. I'll try the stock market instead.
An average is just that, meaning prices below and above. Chelsea is a much more desired neighborhood than midtown, which is one of the least desired neighborhoods.

So a 5-10% premium for Chelsea is actually on the low side, and isn't really a premium for the area as that sounds to be right on target compared to the average price.

If they paid $2,000 a sq ft then they would be paying a premium. This looks like a good standard rate for also an iconic building in Chelsea.
> More likely it was a floating ITAR export risk

Indeed. Literally an ICBM.
Just adding to your points:

> The human body is very efficient. I'd be extremely surprised if my 15 minute bicycle commute to work burned more than 100 calories on top of my BMR. There's just no comparison.

Also, biking is exercise, and we should all be getting some exercise daily. If bike commuting replaces some time you'd spend at the gym, the question of how much energy exercise consumes is irrelevant since you'll be using that energy either way. As others have mentioned, that can also save you the time of going to the gym in addition to the other benefits.

> I'd link to icebike.org where they used to have pictures of people cycling in Chicago in winter and articles on suitable clothing and tires, but that domain got bought out and commercialized into some mountain bike advertising site.

I live in Wisconsin and bike all winter. Some combination of fat tires, studded tires, and internal hub makes it easier. With my studded tires ice is basically a non-issue.

It's also easier to stay warm than you might expect. If you have any kind of jacket on your core can get hot really quickly while cycling. You do need decent clothing to protect your extremities.
Seems like this way they filter out the looky-loos and narrow the gap between seeing the price and making a purchase.
It's roughly the same price they paid for 111 8th Ave.
I'm starting with steps 1 and 2. I'm hoping to get a 3 bed mortgaged with repayments around $860, plus bills and taxes around $330. Rent out each spare room for around $555.

As far as I know in the UK there are no income tax benefits unless you are a proper landlord letting out properties.

It's not quite as lucrative as perhaps your suggestion, but if I take the profit from the lodgers and overpay the mortgage, it would be paid off in around 9 years (and I certainly won't be a millionaire at the end hah!)

And it's quite theoretical, as I'm not going to live with 2 people for 9 years, but that's the math.

Fun fact - some of the Chelsea Market buildings were originally the National Biscuit Corporation, which would later become Nabisco (combining the first syllables). You can still see the NBC logo (which is not the TV network) on parts of the building.
ClojureCL looks quite awesome, it looks like it takes all of the boiler plate out in comparison to C but I am very interested in the overhead. I tried aparapi for my bachelor thesis and for larger problems it seemed to have quite the overhead that the normal kernel did not have (several years ago). After watching your talk on youtube [1], I saw you compared the GPU implementation to the JVM and other CPU implementations in Clojure. Do you have any numbers for the same kernel being called from a native C openCL application?

The second doctor shouldn't make you second guess your first doctor. The second doctor had the advantage of time. Pneumonia generally doesn't manifest in the span of hours.
Just like C++ used to be compiled to C.

There are many valid uses for C++, however using IL2CPP as an example, well that is just an implementation detail of their C# compiler.

If Unity would be willing to spend the money, they could have implemented a compiler backed instead.
SpaceX works because a lot of people want to put satellites in orbit. In a time of unprecedented peace, how many navy ships do we realistically want to be building?

$4.25B/ship is the wrong way to frame it. Think of it as $23B to keep our shipbuilding expertise current, to make sure we have the capability to build navy ships that incorporate a bunch of cutting-edge technologies (some of which have worked out and some of which haven't, as is the nature of cutting-edge technologies). If a shooting war started to look likely we'd be building a lot more than 3 of them and the unit cost would come way down.
> Doctors know this and are reluctant to prescribe it -- since they know it is in short supply and critical populations should get it first. Ironically, doctors reluctance to prescribe it - actually reduces the supply.

Yet during the swine flu scare, Roche handed out massive amounts of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) like it was candy to their employees (at least at the SF Genentech campuses). You'd call into a doctor, who would do nothing but verify your identity and issue a prescription. You'd then pick up the drugs on campus. Unfortunately pretty typical for Roche-Genentech, which is prone to fairly disgusting levels of spending on excesses.
At over $4 Billion each, I'd hope they still get top class skippers. Whatever the training, recruitment, retention etc. costs the Navy it would be worth it.

> Sometimes they work even better with the correct client giving big $$$ to build some features with priority.

You're spot on with this. I worked in a small B2B startup for a bit over 18 months and that was always our route to market. Develop the stem of the idea, polish it enough to make it convincing in a demo, and approach a big company. They sponsor development by buying licenses, and in exchange they get a say in the development process, the features we prioritize/drop, etc. The result is a win-win: they get a product that fits their needs, we get funding and credibility.
Yeah they did - I still don't have the new update and have that model. Like most of Snapchat of old, it's all hidden features. While I'm worried about the new update, there are definitely some advantages. I love the separation concept but just hope they roll back to the non-chronological and maybe the story/message mix.

In the post Falcon Heavy press conference, he specifically mentioned scaling up to a Super Heavy with two additional side boosters, four in all. Sounded like they had designed for that, from the way he just threw it out there.

Seems odd to me, since FH is an interim vehicle until BFR comes on line in 5-10 years.
Yes, the John Deere situation will likely drive change in the automotive world too. There is already a pretty strong "right to repair" law in MA, and it will likely inform the laws that are written in other states or maybe even at a federal level. All automakers have to conform to the MA law already, but I'm not sure if that law applies to farming/John Deere as well.
I worked in the building as it transitioned from how it was to how it is. The ground floor used to be mostly shops and over time became food oriented, with more restaurants and fancy treat places, as they aimed themselves towards the tourist industry, which crowds that place like mad.

I just wish I could get shoes wide enough for my feet. Anything wide enough is too long (a good 4cm of wasted space at the front).

You can use Facebook's annual report to find that the average annual stock based compensation at Facebook is around $188k. That's real, liquid stock that you can turn around and sell. It's not monopoly money. Add salary and bonus and you're well over $300k in total compensation.

Is it hard to believe that some are going to be hitting more than $200k above the 18F numbers?

Note that we're comparing the absolute max for GS employees to the average at Facebook.
Maybe I am hung up on the name but Cloudwatch is a monitoring service. It doesn't seem obvious to me why this is the source of scheduled events.

"Apolitical" never exists. What is called "apolitical" really means "supported (or better: ignored but funded) by all major power players". In the case of an Obama-backed initiative alongside the modern GOP philosophy (with "anti-Obama" has a key platform plank), "apolitical" certainly can't apply. Apolitical is for whatever VA internal paperwork management process that is run without photo-ops with the President.
