I don't understand people who constantly make fun of new technologies that we're only recently about to figure out how to make right. Like people obsessed with making fun of IoT (I don't own any IoT besides a smartphone) or cryptocurrencies (I own a bit). Isn't it normal for new techs to be failing at the beginning? Do we really need to ridicule these nascent techs just because they're not perfect for now?

It's like people making fun of first airplanes 150 years ago (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp7MHZY2ADI). First attempts to fly were full of huge failure, many leading to deaths. Many people ridiculed the very idea we would one day do mass travel by plane.

I thought of anyone, we should know better than making fun of new tech having some failures, this is how tech works. Because one day, one of these techs may take off like these planes eventually did and you will be the one looking like a fool then.

Isn’t that form of air conditioning a non-starter in humid climates like Hawaii?
Not really. A) It’s missing the “feel” of a Harley (e.g. the feeling of the engine between your legs), and B) Riding it in big cities where the sound of the Harley gas engine is an advantage (car drivers can hear you and not hit you when you’re in the blind spot) means the quiet electric engine could actually get you killed.
I'm curious: why wouldn't you adjust for inflation? That seems to make it more of an apples-to-apples comparison to me.
> is what Google Chrome and all the browsers do with what you type in your search bar

Not all browsers do that by default, Firefox for example asks you whether you want that or not, and the Tor Browser has it disabled by default. However that doesn't change the fact that all those who do it by default should correctly be labeled as "spyware", e.g. Google Chrome.
Thanks for elaborating, these are interesting points and observations.

I am curious are there any proposals floating about for achieving greater efficiency or more egalitarianism?

It seems like a great area of research.

Might you or someone else have any resources you could share if this is an active area of research? Cheers.
Equity is not important for me for the most part. I have to exercise by paying when I leave. I rather get free shares and I’d stay longer. Otherwise, joining a company like FB would be wise if you want stready return on top of your base compensation.

> The best talent has no trouble attracting far more than $80,000/year. I'm mediocre at best and have had no trouble attracting far more than that amount, in rural Canada no less. The people being offered $80,000/year are not the top talent that you speak of.

I was simply giving my own past offers as an anecdote to illustrate the cost-benefit analysis of why someone in that situation might choose to leave Canada. I was decidedly junior at the time, having just graduated, and by no means was I trying to claim anything about my own level of talent.

It seems like you may have read too much into that part of my post. Similarly, the quoted piece of your post above reads to me a lot like a thinly veiled ad-hominem, but I digress.

It sounds like there's at least one part of my chain of reasoning that you disagree with: that the size of the tech job market in Canada can potentially grow in concert with the Canadian tech industry's competitiveness relative to the US, and that the Canadian tech industry's competitiveness can improve relatively as a result of keeping more of its talent from leaking into the US.

If that's the case I think it's best if we can agree to disagree and leave it at that.

This is very black and white thinking. I started with imperative languages, loved them. Then I learnt some FP theory and Haskell, loved it. I now use both and what's most important imho is that knowing both made me a better dev overall.

Seems like having to choose only one learning/teaching style is a false dicotomy.

E.g. I've been doing software a long time, so like the github guy in OP who liked project based learning, that works really well for me when I basically already know what I'm doing. E.g. I know C-based languages really well, put me on a project with a new language, and I'll pick it up, np. Learning a new language by drilling would be very boring for me.

But if I'm learning something truly new/novel to me, e.g. machine learning or Haskell, where I have zero existing intuition for how it works, then drilling constitute parts is very useful.

This could be quite cool, and something I'd certainly be up for test-riding.

It would also be quite ironic, in an enjoyable sort of way, to see Harley-Davidson at the top of the pack in terms of innovation. Just hope it's got as much go as it does show, unlike most of their other offerings: Rod series aside[1], their bikes are absolutely worse than other major manufacturers' by almost any measure you care to name (performance, handling, reliability, fuel efficiency, weight, features, price, and TCO). I think the only attributes they've been winning on recently are swagger and decibels which, in fairness, are probably the two main reasons to buy a Harley... so I suppose they at least know their market.

[1] And lots of people complained about the Nightrod because it wasn't a "real" Harley: it had a Porsche designed engine that incorporated modern features such as water-cooling (I'm being totally serious).
It all depend of China real motivation:

-publicly they state that servers need to be in China because they don’t want to hand Chinese citizen data to foreign country. This is nowhere incompatible with iMessage

- privately people suspect that China want to increase mass surveillance to a point even worse than what the USA was already doing with prism. If this is true yes iMessage is incompatible in the long run
While the images over HTTP seems really trivial to fix and can be considered as a "big mistake" from the devs, the other point in this article about the number of bytes is trickier: wondering if any other HTTPS traffic could be "guessed" like that (likes on facebook or instagram? ...), any other known case of that kind? how would one protect against that?

Are you joking? He wrote entire paragraphs on Tor in his book to push his thesis and you're thinking that it comes down to a matter of differing "interpretations".
So what? Just give up? What’s your point?

It's hard to pin down the source of injury because there are so many factors, but I suggest looking at it holistically:

* The weightlifting equipment - whether the barbell is balanced, if your shoes are flat to allow proper force driving, and lifting belt or shirt if applicable.

* Basic limitations of your body. I have scoliosis, and while it's a noticeable condition, it doesn't affect ordinary activities. But in the gym, compound lifts are considerably harder. I have adapted towards favoring bodyweight-centric exercises like weighted dips and leg lifts. I haven't had any injury from it in years now.

* Other health and nutrition factors. At 32, all it takes is one meal of junk food and I stiffen up for the next four hours or so, or one poor night of sleep and I'm struggling to do cardio the next day. Worse mobility transfers to worse form, and performance degrades from there.

For gathering information specific to me, I've just done a lot of data collection of both the "mental note" and "exercise log" kind. I don't aim to be in the gym more than once or twice a week, and as long as my numbers are going up(which I usually measure by total volume to allow weight/reps/sets to shift around) I'm happy.

Lately I've been training jiujitsu 2 hours a week and the overall intensity/satisfaction there far exceeds what I usually get out of the gym - grappling uses everything you have - while the injury rate is "scrapes, bruises and soreness from submissions every session" and any more serious injury is generally dependent on my own caution and whether or not the opponent is a maniac, which is most common in two settings: during competition, and when they are completely new. When you're used to rolling, it becomes less threatening and more of a mind game.
Learned Helplessness and the Ops Death-Spiral
The more I see these types of confusion in forums, the more I get a sense that many people online (the number of online people is too great to make broad assumptions with certainty) simply don’t have good [enough] reading skills.

Moreover, as with any complex subject, there are possibly other limitations working in paralell (but still connected to the level of reading): the emotional state one’s in when it stumbles something in writing. Again, if one lacks a sufficiently mature reading skill, one tends to take things at face value, without making the obvious leap of understanding them within the larger context both of the text itself and the subject matter at hand.
Tesla's latest thing with powerwalls is to build "virtual power plants". This means the batteries are all under central control and can absorb extra power if wind/solar/nuclear are providing more than needed and later reduce load by running from battery when loads are higher.

In this case the schools probably just provide a convenient set of distributed locations, owned by a single authority. The money they earn from providing this service can be partially kicked back to the schools to offset air con costs.

I don't know, @patio11 who's quoted on the link keeps attacking bitcoin all the time. Equally annoying are people who keep praising bitcoin all the time by the way. Bitcoin may or may not succeed but people who keep predicting it will fail are just as tiring as people who keep saying it will save humanity and get rid of all the ills.

Note 1: These files have only been tested with an iPhone 6s. Other models of mobile phones may require alterations to the clip geometry. To do this, edit the solidworks file appropriately for your specific phone model.

Note 2: Depending on their 3D printer, users may need to alter the scaling for these models to fit properly over an iPhone 6s. We have encountered that the scaling may need to be adjusted by up to 10% from a FORM 1 3D printer to a FORM 2 3D printer. This can be done directly in the .form file, or using the editable solidworks file.
This isn't even jealousy speaking, really. I don't even know the gentleman.

But I fail to see how someone would be worth this kind of money as, what's mostly a people manager of a (late) startup.

I study computer eng. with a projects based approach (teams of 2, 2 weeks projects) and I believe that it is much better than regular classes. Yes you miss theory, yes you don't go into the details of everything, but you get more real-world experience and you actually need to work by yourself to learn something. In regular classes, you can be passive and just listen, but with projects you have to research, talk with people, try (and fail). If you have great mentorship, you will gain more during those "sprints".

We also have a co-op program which is the best thing in the world really. I simply don't understand why most universities don't have one. We do 4 months of school then 4 months of work in a company (then repeat). 5 internships during a 4 years bachelor give you almost 2 years of experience when you get out of university. Since they are paid internships, you can live well during school semesters and you don't have to work while studying. In addition, you know way more what type of job you want to do since you tried so many different companies. I personally know that I like smaller companies that operate in the fintech market and that I like backend more than anything else I tried.
> A couple summers ago at the pool I heard a teenage girl exclaim “poned!” after besting her friend at something they were playing. It took me a moment to realize she’d just said “pwned” since I’d never heard it said out loud before and in my mind I’ve always read it “owned.” Now that was a “get off my lawn moment!”

That pronunciation was popularized by the famous South Park episode on World of Warcraft [1] [2] which first aired in 2006. So it's not actually particularly new at all.

How to Update Samsung Galaxy S8 G950F to Android 8.0.0 Oreo
Proof of work is the same, except instead of rich people buying more Etherium to get rich faster, they buy more mining hardware.
For example, as reported in this thread (I didn't test), without javascript the page reads "0 days". Then that 0 is updated automatically.

Obviously it SHOULD read "loading..." and then that loading... text should be replaced.

Why do I point this out?

Because this oversight coincidentally serves the purposes of the page (its humor), it's a particularly strong impact when that reads 0 days.

It's not supposed to actually read that way, but, there you have it. A good example of the principle in practice.
My cofounder and I are remote now after having lived together for 2.5 years. I think a lot of remote first companies do this, but it only works based on a good working relationship. 99% of the time, a lot of folks will tell you it doesn't work, but you'll also find the bulk of companies aren't remote and can't get work done without an office in the first place.

It really comes down to your working relationship with your cofounder rather than location.

Honestly, your cofounder doesn't sound like someone I would want to ever work with. We both did what it takes and shared duties like that.

That being said - your situation doesn't sound healthy in general. Working remotely without a proper structure or know how of what you're getting in to usually leads to bad professional relationships and strain. This is due to meetings happening in person and the other guy being "left out". Communication is the biggest problem and something you should know how to cope with in general if you're working remote.

Your team doesn't seem to have the structure to manage this.

I won't comment on what will be better or worse for your living situation, I am merely stating my observations relative to your situation. For context, my cofounder and I live in different countries, not just different cities. We make it work fine and have for the last few years.
Ah okay.

I just watched a tutorial where someone described methods to make the cold starts faster and one major point was, get the code size down, because on a cold start the target machine needs to download the code and run it.
It’s more making fun of the hype where people who don’t understand either the technology or economics make huge predictions based on what would be personally advantageous for themselves.

Air travel had immediate, obvious advantages. There were many technical challenges but getting somewhere fast no matter the terrain was an obvious win. In contrast, the first decade of crypto currency hype has basically been “you should use your money to make me rich and in return you’ll get to do what you could already do except it’ll cost more and won’t have fraud protection”. A hype cycle like that always gets mockery and the way to deal with it is to drop it, be honest about what went wrong, and do something which useful.

IoT is a good example of both outcomes: bad products get mocked but millions of useful devices are selling because they do something ordinary people want.
In this context I am not referring to lower-cost, but lower efficiency thin films, nor triple junction or concentrator type cells...

High efficiency = 5W STC rating per 156mm cell or better. More W per square meter. For example you can get cheap 72-cell panels that are rated at 320W, the best ones which are exactly the same dimension will be rated at 370, 375 or 380W. That is for typical modules which measure exactly 1.99 x 0.99 meters.

In large-scale solar, but not large enough to use a huge land area and low-cost thin films, there are two standard sizes of panels. 60-cell 1.65 x 0.99m and 72 cell 1.99 x 0.99 meter. These are standardized to work with a wide variety of different mounting systems.

There are many different grades and quality levels of polycrystalline and mono crystalline silicon solar panels.

The very best monocrystalline Si panels are made by Sunpower, but they have a significant price premium as compared to a pallet load that I could buy right now with my Visa card of qty 20, 370W panels. The commodity 370W are 65% of the price but only a few % less efficient.
I agree that small exercises are good for teaching individual skills (e.g. a chess player practicing with only a few pieces on the board), but projects put the reason you are practicing into context. It's a motivator to practice. It shows smaller skills combined to produce some desired behavior.

I think a critical piece left out of the article is the role of emotional affect. Many people are learning because they want to produce a big, realistic set of behaviors (a project), so a good learning curriculum will motivate through a project and drill through small, independent exercises.

Another example, the article mentions Haskell being more useful for teaching cs concepts compared to node, or piano for teaching musical theory. While this might be true, we also need learn how motivated students will be to use these tools over others. At the end of the day, the usefulness of a tool for teaching concepts will be (its effectiveness when used)*(how motivated people are to use it).

One person dying in a aircraft that is being used as a science/engineering trial for a new technology is absolutely not the same thing as a hundred startups bursting on to the scene and amateurishly slapping together some code to try and gain market share, at the cost to the general consumer who has been swindled into getting into the “hot new thing” via YouTube ads.

There is a huge gap between “we genuinely don’t understand the full mechanics of heavier-than-air flight” and “we got an intern to write the front-end and there were no server side checks to verify your balance”. I won’t feel foolish because I do believe cryptocurrencies and blockchain can work, but I’ll happily ridicule those doing it poorly for a quick buck off the nonethewiser general consumer.
I've heard that Harley is trying to expand their motorcycle line because that image doesn't resonate with younger riders (riders who didn't grow up with Easy Rider). I think the Street 500/750 was supposed to attract a younger rider; the styling is very different from most HD.

Techcrunch don't understand motorcycles do they?

Trouble with motorcycles is, at least in the EU, too many years of governments putting the fix for bad car drivers onto the motorcycle license. The capacity limits and multi-part test etc are quite off-putting for new riders. Unsurprisingly, it's still car drivers causing most rider deaths. On the plus side you develop a definite 6th sense for those that will pull out - whilst looking straight through you. You also end up a much better car driver.

Lifestyle ranges are part of the problem of decline. The manufacturers, Harley included - perhaps especially, have catered more and more for the born again bikers spending a lot of $$$ in their 40s+. The cost has got rather silly and many models, even Jap middleweights, have reached the cost to buy of a cheaper car. When I started only the Goldwing and rarer Italian managed that.

So whilst I'd love for an EV bike to revitalise things, I suspect they'll be more of the same for the 40+ born again biker.

Inflation is a very broad trend to adjust for. Maybe a dollar was worth 2% more in some part of the country while it bought you 5% less elsewhere. The ups and downs in local cost of living are probably extreme in SF, so adjusting with a nation-wide trend (which is probably nowhere near representative for SF) might be a bit arbitrary.
