Absolutely lovely. I started folding when I was seven years old and the birdbase - the basis of the flapping bird and thousands of other models - eluded me for weeks because I couldn't fill the gaps between the two diagrams I had in front. Seeing it happen like this would have instantly unlocked that. Of course, it would have ruined the sense of satisfaction too, but hey. Cracking work.
Some people have way too much time on their hand. But thanks goodness for emulators.
Hi Nailer, how do you use these? I can't seem to open a .sketch file on my Linux machine. Would you be willing to share a cross-platform version of your stickers?
May I ask what do you mean by good port on the switch?
Sounds like equality only among the poor. The well-off probably had savings in foreign currency and other assets that kept their value.
It doesn't seem like dgraph has an official Node driver, I think?
Honestly, we simply lost track of time.

But, the customer is always right. If it's not clearly signed that seating is time-limited, I will assume it is not.

I have been at (rather popular, busy) restaurants where a waiter will politely inform you that they have another reservation on our table 30 minutes later, giving us time to finish up without feeling rushed. Perhaps it's just a polite way to get rid of lingering customers, but we certainly didn't feel as if we were thrown out.

In a lot of cases, they'll even inform you beforehand that a reservation is for such and such time, usually 2 or 3 hours. That's perfectly fine and upfront, I certainly don't mind that.

I don't go out to just eat and get the hell out. Conversation is absolutely a part of going out to eat, and people don't appreciate feeling rushed.
Vancouver BC now has this. A standard ticket that works throughout the city on all transit. I hate it though because we used to run on a trust system with no barriers and now there is congestion at busy times due to the barriers. It also reportedly did not raise revenues much anyway.
iPhones also had a PowerVR GPU as part of A-series SoC. In iPhone 8/X (A11) it was replaced with Apple's own GPU design.
ACKs are TCP, not IP. They only claim 1gbps for IP traffic, not TCP.
If Oracle's sources would be GPL'ed all OpenZFS changes would also have to be put under the GPL (or dual licensed) if you want to use those. OpenZFS doesn't have a CLA I think so that might be somewhat of a problem. Then again most ZFS changes were made by people for their employers (Joyent, Delphix, etc.) so it might be that only a few companies (...and Allan Jude ;-) need to give their blessing.
I'm not sure how much of that is about controversy though some of it is. I expect part of it is that classroom teaching doesn't require special equipment like a machine shop does. There's also probably an increased emphasis on subjects that are perceived as directly relevant to college admissions testing etc. especially among the demographics of parents who are most likely to have the loudest voices around school curricula.

To be clear, I agree with you. High schools in particular should have more hands-on coursework as well as practical skills related to personal finance and statistics.
The only motive of miners is profit. This is by design. How else could you incentivize a bunch of random people to find partial SHA-256 collisions?

Security is ensured by the economic incentives baked into the protocol. Security is the by-product of economically selfish behavior.

I've been using GraphQL for a bout a year now on several projects. the 'flexible' part for me comes in more advanced scenarios like:

Once I establish a relationship between two entities (`Types`), I can fetch an arbitrary combination of them from my endpoint. e.g., the resolvers that allow me to execute a query like 'fetch all posts by users who signed up since last week' to the same endpoint' can also answer 'fetch the Id of the authors of posts that start with the letter "a",' or even "fetch me every post by an author who's published a post in the past week titled with a word that starts with "C"'. All of these are possible just by defining the relationship b/t `Post` and `User`.

The other part I find really something is custom field-level resolvers. Instead of every field corresponding to a database table, the `GraphQL` server can execute arbitrary code to resolve a field. In the `User` / `Post` example, I can add a field called `weather` to `Post`. Whenever the endpoint is returning a `Post` with `weather` included in the response, it could fire an API call to a weather API for the weather at the time / location that post was created. To the API consumer, this is totally transparent and `weather` is returned as though it was already in the database.

This sort of arbitrary composition of data types is really at its best with `schema-stitching`. I have a bunch of content in a GraphQL-powered CMS BaaS, and using a few lines of code with `graphql-yoga` (a server), I can combine the CMS schema with a schema for my own custom data model, and even merge the two. e.g., extend my `Post` type in my CMS with a `weather` field from above.
Yes, it was a little disappointing on an otherwise humorous and informative article, but I'm sure it was just a slip and he'd change it if he spent more time thinking the wording over.

Sounds great. Do you know of any clear, easy to follow guides to make this happen? Something like the DigitalOcean reference tutorials would be optimal.
If you are living somewhere with 2k a month rent, then yes, $50k a year is awful and nigh unlivable.

You should not be in a position where you are working professionally and full time where you have to worry about having enough money each month to survive.

The cost of living is out of control and nobody wants to acknowledge that should reflect rising salaries. It is why there was so much momentum around a $15 minimum wage two years ago.

The economy has not stagnated or contracted. Markets are larger than ever. Corporations are profitable as always and are somehow finding billions to buy each other out rather than pay their employees a respectable wage.

If the momentum and progress of the 50s and 60s held to today the mean salary should be in the $150k a year range, not $50k. The average person is way too complacent to the march of inflation and growth of the economy to think that since $50k was a lot in 1978 that it should still be sufficient in 2018.
Aren't most mortgages effectively inflation-adjusted nowadays? I know that my parent's monthly payments have been pretty low, thanks to the low levels of the Euribor rates.
I see it differently. Those groups in this example purport to support love and tolerance yet simultaneously hate on those on the other side. The other side appears to not even try to be tolerant, so I would think it goes without saying that they should love their enemies.

I think that it is because some think that the "social justice warriors" and the "PC crowd" hold contradictory views.

While the (less extreme) homophobes and racist hold a "I don't like you, please go away. And if you could change to be more like me I will welcome you", one the other side you have "We should accept everybody, equally, regardless of whatever characteristic you may have. Except if you disagree with the previous statement."

I disagree with both ideas. But I find the former more honest and at peace with their hate than the latter.
I wish India would ban two-stroke engines (phase them out, not ban them outright obviously), that would make a huuuuggeee difference in the air pollution of the large cities.
Absolutely.

Just take a look at the developers behind Bitcoin Core. It's difficult to ignore the obvious conflicts of interests of doing everything to block on-chain scaling while their company's business model is off-chain solutions.
OpenZFS can't be relicensed as GPL since FreeBSD won't be able to use it.

Perhaps it could be dual-licensed, not sure, but that would be bad for FreeBSD as well. If it would be integrated into the mainline Linux kernel, I don't believe FreeBSD could merge back subsequent ZFS changes done on the Linux side.

If OpenZFS were relincensed and developed outside the mainline Linux tree (as it is now), FreeBSD would be able to get all changes, but it would still be annoying to actually use ZFS in Linux for the same reason it is annoying to use it now, even though the legal uncertainties would disappear.
I like the overall idea of this equation, but IMO it seems to not hold for some cases. Think about some cases when reality is far lower than expectations or reality is very close to expectations but still lower than expectations. According to this equation, you will be very unhappy for the former case and less unhappy for the latter case, but I think this doesn't hold.

For example, in the winter olympics, there was a world class ski player that had been a champion for the world cups but not an olympic medalist. She already had been in positions like 7th, 6th, 5th, 4th and she just wanted nothing but a medal. In the Vancouver olympics, she went to the final round and was very close to winning a bronze medal, but finished in 4th place. She bursted into tears and clearly seemed very unhappy in the interview.

In the opposite case, if reality is far lower than expectations, like you couldn't even pass the qualification round, you can think that like an accident. I have seen this in the PyeongChang olympics that some good players not even passing the qualification round because of the windy weather. They clearly looked unhappy, but not bursting into tears, because blaming the wind will relax their unhappiness.

Years ago, someone created a similar picture with a single atomic nucleus. I'd like to find it again.

Normally, nuclear transitions are invisibly-high energies. X-ray and gamma. But a couple of nuclei have multi-step spin isomer decays (or was it shape isomer?). One step of which is visible. So someone trapped and fully stripped a nucleus, and bombarded it to visibility. Naked-eye visibility. And took a picture. Of vacuum vessel window, with a green(?) fluorescence dot.

I saw that picture years ago. Likely a cover photo on something.

I would very much like to find it again. For use in educational content. A lot of time has been spent looking for it, both by myself, and a couple of MIT science librarians. If anyone has a clue, I'd very much appreciate it. Here is a mockup[1] I gimped for user testing.

Why use it in education? To make the concept of atoms more concrete. Atomic electrons are too small (and slow and fragile) to see with your naked eye. But (a couple of) nuclei you can (under hard-to-contrive conditions). Absent concrete, students build their understanding of materials on muddy misconceptions. For example, one failure-mode in teaching high-school stoichiometry, is students not thinking of atoms as real physical objects.

And to preempt a common response... one professor complained "you aren't really seeing the nucleus - it's only a diffraction dot"... right before they headed out to a star party, to apparently "not see" stars. ;)

Unfortunately for DTrace, this is too late. Oracle should have done this years ago. Now Linux has a more powerful tracer builtin, eBPF, and it would be a backwards step to switch the kernel code to DTrace (assuming the DTrace port is completed, which it is not). I'm sure this will not be lost on the maintainers, who have the ultimate say as to what is included in Linux mainline.

The only hope for DTrace is to have the frontend emit BPF bytecode. The bulk of this GPL DTrace code is no longer needed, only the user-level front end.
I’m using Vs Code pretty much exclusively for git commits. The reason is that it really quickly lets me review all my changes als diffs before committing. From time to time I find some stuff there which I added for debugging but which shouldn’t be pushed. I don’t think watching diffs in the console is a great experience. And other IDEs always felt more heavyweight in that regard.

There is really nothing more to say to this news report.

To give some context, Germany is currently in coalition talks for the forming of a new government and the Social Democrats(SPD) are screwed. They promised no more coalition government before the election but stepped back on that. The party voted by a hair to take up negotiations for a new coalition, during which the prime candidate(Schulz) was completely abandoned after trying to give him the post of former SPD foreign minister Gabriel. Now they face a party vote on getting involved in a new government and they fall in polls almost every week[1].

There is absolutely no substance on this topic.

I am very interested in Graph-Cases and appreciate the support of Neo4J for projects like the Panama- or Paradise Papers that show how connected graphs help to understand former hidden relationships. Graphs are very powerful and a great addition to relational or document approaches.

I've spent the better part of the last ten years relocating.

The list of things you learn can grow long and every country is different.

My big tip is brace yourself for the admin and settling in. Admin as in basic things like getting official ID, social insurance registration (if applicable for that country), registering with the local city office. These are tedious, confusing, and sap all the excitement out of moving. Settling in is simplified with the tip below about moving with less.

But nonetheless, every little thing becomes big; for example when you get a flat, do you need to notify the various utilities departments to turn things back on? Where do you get furniture?

As boring and frustrating as it sounds, and hardly a welcome to the city, just take it in stride and every new way of doing things as a learning rather than "how much something doesn't make sense here". It's a one-off setup (at least if you stay), and you'll have plenty of time to make friends after. You might even be making friends with colleagues pretty quickly if you ask them for help moving furniture.

Good luck with the move and adventure!
TNT was the first viable Voodoo 2 competitor, though it didn't quite catch up. The year after, NVIDIA released GeForce, which was indisputably better. 3dfx never recovered after that.

"Second, BGP routes are not that stable."

This has been disproved for close to ten years empirically and academically[1]. Route flaps generally result in convergence to the exact same destination if it has another path and is still online. If it's offline, then it's working as intended, and that's no different from a server being rotated via a DNS pool going down.

Normally, the cronies are rich people.

Even if inflation could be advantageous, sometimes, for some people, hyperinflation don't benefit anyone, but it benefit rich people the less.

If you have liquid or even financial assets, you don't want inflation.

If somebody owns you money you don't want inflation.

If you want to hire cheap you don't want government spending in the economy and making workers more expensive. So, you have an interest in scare people about become the next Zimbabwe and all that.

We can be sure that the cronies are already in charge when a little inflation is sold as worse than unemployment for instance.

Pardon my curiosity but how does Meth differ from Adderall in terms of side effects? My understanding is they are very similar but meth is stronger?

Being in tech I know many people with Adderall perscriptions but none of the side effects typically reported for meth.

At low dose is it similar to Adderall? Is it only huge doses that result in scary sides?
Of course you can. This is the argument used by governments in the UK and other countries, e.g. for key disclosure law (it’s illegal to possess encrypted data which you are unable to decrypt upon demand).

Even 5 - 10 years ago, basic disk encryption was seen as pretty sophisticated, in a “what’s at risk if you’re willing to do that?” kind of way. Now it’s standard. You can say similar things for 50 char randomized passwords encrypted on the client, TPMs, TLS by default, etc. etc.

The ratios are likely to change over time as more people realize that their privacy is important.
Sure they did, if they had invested in something productive the current economy and their descendants would be better off.

Picture 500 years of interest vs a small bit of gold. Granted this assumes they buy the gold as an investment but if it's not sold for 500 years that seems reasonable.

Except I am saying it goes to 0 so they don't actually get any gold. So, it's option A get nothing or option B possibly get something of value. I don't see how option A is better.

> In Greece coffee shops are really mainly places to hang out and staying for hours on a single coffee

From my experience on Samos, this might be attributed to the current economic situation. At bars it's not uncommon to see a person drink a pint over 1-2 hours. Most of the people that I observed did more smoking then drinking at bars and coffee shops because cigarettes (especially hand rolled ones) are a lot cheaper then drinks.

In a number of (non-US, currently, though there are recurrant efforts in the US, too) jurisdictions, there is shorter-term, copyright-like protection for clothing design.

Facebook Funded Most of the Experts Who Vetted Messenger Kids
This is an interesting question. I think the software industry (speaking from someone who works at a startup in SF) today puts a high emphasis on "culture fit" which is best determined (imho) by committee. I think you'll find that other industries (banking, consulting, law) also put a lot emphasis on hiring by committee; one hypothesis I have is that these industries, like the tech industry, are high churn industries (average tenure ~2 years), so if your champion leaves, you'd best hope everyone else wants you to be there.
What a treat. Made my Wednesday : }
Trading activity is the same way. Individual pairs of bids and asks are zero sum, but the emergent behavior of the market is non-zero sum (liquidity, price discovery, efficiency, etc). Sure, one trader might lose, but the trade contributes a signal to the market, the effect of which is a gradual increase in overall value that benefits everyone.

Categorically speaking, they are the same. The difference is one of degree: financial markets consist of many two-party competitions with material loss, and sports consist of multi-party or competition with non-material loss.
Hey Jason, I am glad I could help!

Before you start with the execution, make sure you did use the 20 years of data, go and back test all the years, they encompass few market cycles, so you will know how your strategy will perform in bull and bear markets.

For the execution part, when I started, I had an ssh session open to my server with the output of my bot running on the screen and had it configured to chime with something like” EXECUTE buy 2000 HYZ at $65 stop 56. I did it manually for a few weeks until I made sure everything worked properly and then did the order execution with the API. Interactive Brothers are a good choice with a good API.
