Relay is actually hosted mattermost. Just a means to offload maintenance and uptime to someone working on it full time.

The part of software in Relay that makes mattermost SaSS is open source too.

It's an equal nightmare to develop on windows and deploy on Linux. But it's true. I have Linux systems running for couple of years with no downtime at all.
I'd suggest it's because 'us' is a very small, and not exactly unbiased, sample of 'anyone'.

3 to 4 years is a good amount of time to switch, but I think 5 to 6 is probably better, it you have a good fit with a company. 5 to 6 years is the normal amount of time to 100% vest company 401k contributions, and any stock options. Leaving early can be a lot of money on the table.

I think that there's a very good point here which is being ignored: that in order to be in the manager/director/CxO class it has become a near-requirement to go to the gym. Once upon a time attendance at church would have been mandatory; any candidate who didn't belong to a church, or the Masons, or whatever, would have been 'not quite our type'; now someone who's not physically fit is 'not really a cultural fit.'

As far as I can tell, it's really status signalling. Once upon a time the wealthy were overweight, as a show of their superior access to resources; now that our society is so rich that anyone can be fat, the wealthy are fit, as a show of their superior access to the resources of time (to exercise) & money (to belong to a gym/hire a trainer/eat fancy engineered food).

And the thing is, I don't think it's actually relevant to the jobs of managing, directing or being CxO.
Regression to the mean?
A relative of mine has a recent PhD in pharmacy and wasn't familiar with this way of thinking. (In our conversation, they also expressed a believe that race is genetic). My hunch is that there are still a lot of old school professors out there, firmly stuck in their neodarwinian ways, teaching students like my relative outdated paradigms. It wasn't too long ago that this framework was scientifically taboo, considered Lamarckian, even pseudoscience. And scientists are horrified of being called "crack pots" or "pseudoscientific".
Relay is actually hosted mattermost. You'll get the benefits of mattermost, except with us taking care of the hosting :).
This is a classic example for "correlation does not imply causality".

I believe the rate has decreased mainly due to improved education, and other suicide prevention services by NGOs, not because of the lack of availability of pesticides.
July will mark 34 years at the same company. It's been an interesting ride. When I started, what little computing we did was on a shared mainframe, miles away, or on old Wang word processors. We had one IBM PC, acquired without permission, in a closet. (I don't miss 8-inch floppy disks.) The introduction of PCs, installing networks, developing our own systems, etc. I've been part of it all. I've always had the flexibiity to try something new. I almost became management a couple of years ago; but, I'm glad to just be a senior engineer.
I don't think xab9 is denying that your wife made you a better person and see things in a different light. That's awesome and you should be proud of her. But your comments keep showing a form of dependancy that can quickly spiral out of control and turn against you (personally I have been there). A psychologist can be a tremendous help in preventing such situations.

Like xab9's comment, please do not take offence in my comment either.
Wow! They should make this into an actual one of those stereographic pictures!
This is a very nice idea! To use the time taken to complete the game with
nonsense textures as a proxy for the importance of background knowledge.

However, I can't avoid bitching a bit about how the fact that a strong prior
can really boost sample efficiency is really, really old news. That is
one of the main ideas in Inductive Logic Programming, where priors are
specifically encoded as background knowledge, or a strong language bias, etc.
It's a bit disheartening to see people reinventing the wheel instead of
looking a little outside their narrow field.

My guess is that the water doesn't move much faster than 10 m/s which translates to 1 cm/ms. You certainly can't make out 1 cm differences in the images, so the "same millisecond" claim is definitely exaggerated. From a quick look, the time difference could even be more than 10 ms, but not by much.
The FOP (Fraternal Order of Police) is a very, very powerful union. Up there with the NRA in terms of political power. Because the FOP as an organization typically endorses the GOP, they were spared all the anti-union rhetoric over the past 40 years. While workers' unions crumbled, the FOP grew in power. Of course they are for the drug war, because that's the majority of what they do. It justifies their existence. Pot is the largest drug seized (by far), so for them, it's an existential fight.
I probably should've clarified that I was talking about n:m-relationships. And for that case I don't see how it would've been an apples/oranges comparison.
This is always such a stupid argument. Zoning and regulations are not about what is there, its about what you WANT to be there. If you had supply issue in an area full of flats, and you said "all buildings from now on have to be at least 2 stories high", 100% of buildings could not be built today. But you're trying to make things better.

(I realize that's not the point of the article you linked, and that it's usually the other way around, but the "X% of buildings could not be built today" on its own is just stupid).

I live in a condo that could not be built again under current zoning laws and regulations. And you wouldn't want it to: its not safe anymore (thus new code) and the current sewer is at capacity (until there's a major overhaul there, you can't build anything else).

Sometimes its not as simple as "build whatever!!!". We should be allowed to learn from our mistake and make things better.
By "less effective methods", I did mean that they'll still try, but probably fail.
> I get not throwing grandma out of the $250/month 4BR she’s been living in for 50 years

Sorry, but not when the 2BR across the hall is renting for $4,000/mo and is on the market for 4 hours before someone gets it. Grandma doesn't have a right to live in the exact same apartment for the rest of her life at the expense of everyone else.
Are you aware most treatments for cancer are poisons? At least the amateur blog you linked gets that right...There is no proof toxins will get removed, just proof of the opposite; that your body will start to destroy itself in order to survive. Shooting yourself in the head is also a great cancer cure.

Have fun reading this synopsis on the topic of fasting and distilled water: https://www.ncahf.org/articles/e-i/fasting.html

In summary, you buy into the "pain must be good!" ascetic BS. You have insecurity and by fasting, you believe you must be rewarded for your sacrifice. Well, it sucks that you actually get more pain for your pain - break down your body, lose muscle, produce ammonia, urea, and all sorts of toxins, pull out stored toxins and use them because your body is so desperate on its low reserves of vital nutrients..and destroy your organs. Bravo!

Please dont dig this distilled watering hole any deeper.
I'd be interested to hear what you think that way. In my mind, if a file exists within the src directory but is not compiled as part of the project, its existence is lying to the developer. Keeping a separate list of files to be included makes it possible to lie to the developer. Therefore, wildcard builds should be used, so the list of files in the src directory and the list of files being compiled are one and the same.
A team I've been working with for years has had a lot of success with Blazegraph: https://www.blazegraph.com/ -- the marketing materials call it "ultra-scalable," and that actually turns out to be true. I haven't seen too many cases where specific queries will cause serious performance with the system.

That said, we've done some work to prevent runaway queries (e.g. strict query timeouts, downstream systems that handle that situation gracefully).
This wouldn't be such an issue if they couldn't see the data on which they are computing (and individual data wouldn't be exposed in data breaches either).

But I'm not sure if Google even cares too much about doing that (I know they've experimented with this, but nothing on a scale that matters), and Facebook certainly doesn't. Apple seems to be the only one that does somewhat with its differential privacy approach.

I think they can all do much more, but they're not trying too hard.

But what Signal and WhatsApp has is not PGP. Not even close. It turns out security isn't trivial.
This is not quite Pareto distributed but it's getting there:

"half of all Airbnb rentals that are conducted by only 10 percent of hosts, who earned a full 48 percent of all the revenue earned in the city last year. That’s some 5,000-people earning a combined $318 million. In contrast, the bottom 80 percent of New York’s hosts—the city’s 40,400 true home sharers—earned just 32 percent of all revenue, or $209 million, in 2017."

While I like the exploration of facts like this, I don't really believe AirBnB is important to rents in New York City. In spatial statistics it is difficult to really prove anything rigorously, and this study doesn't even try to go the distance.

"Applying Barron et al.’s national average ratio of exogeneity to New York City, this implies that, city-wide, Airbnb drove up rents by 0.8% in 2015, 0.4% in 2016, and 0.2% in 2017 (all for years ending in August). This is a cumulative 1.4% increase in rents over these three
years attributable to Airbnb’s presence in the city."

So while it might seem like the study looked statistically at AirBnB's impact on NYC, in fact it did not. They just used a sort of rough rule-of-thumb from a national average. But the rule-of-thumb is useless in particular cities (suppose a city had one unit on AirBnB; would adding one more increase rents?), and isn't even from published work. The authors of this study are not economists or econometricians, and it isn't peer-reviewed and never will be.

Moreoever, you can use common sense:

"Airbnb has removed between"

(Dr. Evil voice)

"7,000 and 13,500 units."

New York City has 3.4 million housing units. While year to year housing production varies a lot, on average it produces that number of new units every few months:
https://imgur.com/a/gnzUf The report also notes that these units are concentrated in the most expensive neighborhoods anyway. And NYC is only part of a much larger housing regional housing market. It simply strains credulity to think even the upper bound of 13K units has any impact---especially when you consider some of the people occupying such units would have letted or subletted in NYC anyway (the report notes many are long term rentals).

Of course, the real action is in zoning. NYC has seen some upzonings, but mainly massive, consistent downzonings over the past few decades. It is funny people worry about about supply when a private firm removes a tiny bit of it, but nonchalant when the government removes lots of it. Construction costs have also soared, and are now sure to get worse thanks to Trump's tariffs on steel, aluminum and canadian timber.
We've built Relay chat (http://relay-chat.com)! And I believe it addresses some of these concerns.

Basically, it is hosted mattermost. We've written our story of how we created Relay by escaping slack: https://medium.com/@deobald/we-created-relay-by-escaping-sla....

There are bux fixes, and feature improvements pouring into mattermost from around the world, and we get them in. We're building integrations, bridging services and other slack features (which will also be open source) into it on high priority.

There's https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge, which provides bridges from mattermost/relay to practically all other messaging platforms out there including IRC, Telegram, Gitter, etc. We're building a SaSS for this too.

Disclaimer: I'm a part of the Relay team.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time I looked into it, AMD's CPUs support unbuffered ECC RAM, which is really hard to come by and much more expensive than the usual buffered ECC RAM.
> Now, my moral value system doesn't classify suicide as negative, so I can't really agree with the premise of the article, yet I definitely support limitations on the availability and use of pesticides, e.g. to prevent children accidentially poisoning themselves etc.

I have a similar painpoint with this: even if their attempt at reducing suicide succeeded, they didn't help people much.

Assuming (as they have to) that the situation in Sri Lanka is the same or similar as with toxic pesticides, the only thing they achieved is make escaping that shitty situation harder, not making the lives better, by effectively reducing suicidal thoughts. The point they are trying to make that suicide is a spontaneuous/irrational decision hardly counts in a statistic like that.

Yes. That's what I was explaining. You can just do that in many rural areas of the U.S.

That's the big difference compared to urban development. You don't need billion dollar loans and a lobbying firm to add solve the problem on the supply side. It's very common for semi-retired middle class people to buy undeveloped land with good highway access, subdivide it, add some housing, and flip it.
Quite fitting that this article comes in the beginning March, when resolutioners come to the realization that fitness, like everything else, requires dedication and focus to reap rewards, and subsequently create ridiculous excuses for giving up.

The most ridiculous claim in this essay is that gyms are classist towards employees when, in reality, getting certified as a trainer is one of the most accessible paths to a solid income for someone without a college degree. But that, of course, requires dedication and focus as well, so the author is blind to it.
> Magic variables, unintelligible string replacement routines, unportable extensions. Almost nobody understands the finer points like = vs := and execution order.

There is this old saying that is perfect for these kinds of arguments

> Creating dummy files is inefficient, inelegant, and unmaintainable.

Sure, if you overuse them. If you end up having more than a few of them
you might want to consider simplifying the build a bit.

> Changing SHELL does not solve the inconvenience of having start a new process and having to go through a command-line interface each time.

I asked a few people to help me understand what you're trying to say
here but we weren't able to decipher it.

Is your issue that each line is by separate shell by default? You can
easily change this with .ONESHELL.

Also what do you mean by "command-line interface" that one has to go
through? Do you mean the recipes? You don't have to use any traditional
unix shell, you could use javascript, python, whatever you fucking want
so where exactly does your "command-line interface" come to play?

the comment.
That's all true, but are not the job of the death certificate or the responsibility of a doctor. It has to be as objective as possible, not a matter of interpretation, that would be an appropriate role for an inquest.
Sort of, but instead of 365 distinct birthdays you have many thousands of non-overlapping time buckets (the two different burst mode frame rate), and it also doesn't "wrap around" the way birthdays do.
> But the value of my data alone probably is worth less than a dollar

Calculating the value of your data is pretty easy actually. Just take the market cap of the company divided by users to get an average.

Google is at about $700B with may ~2B global users, so global average is more like $350/user. The value of US users is probably 10X less developed parts of world (based on ad rates) so US users are worth more like $3000.

You are undervaluing yourself :) which is how they win.
It is better than E-mail for instant and group communication, it is better in everything except audio/video calling that Skype. SMS and phone calls are not even in the same ballpark in terms of solving group communication problems.

Disregarding the technical side of things, Slack is a great tool and it is quite understandable why it stuck: people like it.
Lifecycles are only needed because of the vdom, it's not a desirable "feature" since it overcomplicates a conceptually simple process.
> Bah, UK is so small it’s easy to see how it can be a problem.

It's considerably less built up than most people think [1-2]. The problem is that our planning laws do not realise that farmland is an ecological desert, and so we're not allowed to build on most of the UK, pushing the value of the little land that can be built on through the roof.

> Is it because of easier schema changes later on like introducing "secondsLeftInPeriod"?

That's definitely an important benefit. RDF makes it really easy to introduce changes that not only don't break the existing schema, but can be entirely isolated or combined in queries.

Another thing that RDF makes easy is analysis that takes advantage of a graph -- using relationships with other players, shots, etc. What players have the highest percentage making 3-point shots in possessions immediately after a player on the other team missed a 3-point shot? Building queries you compare previous possessions, shots, quarters; players' relations to each other (e.g. performance players who were subbed in after previous teammates went scoreless for 3 possessions) -- these things are a lot easier to do in RDF than in SQL.

Obviously, there are many things that are easier to model in RDBMS and query in SQL than with RDF/SPARQL. Every tool has its uses.

Make's documentation is fantastic. The manual is very comprehensive and

there isn't documentation.

> React's (or other SPA frameworks like Vue's) complexity is much higher than it should have is probably because of the tooling (Babel, Webpack, NPM etc) and additional build process required even for a simple hello world app.

This is false or misleading. There is complexity, yes, but those tools abstract it away and simplify everything. Then they have configs with great documentation for when you need to deviate from a default or add a plugin. Next, these things are pre-configured for you. "More complex than it should be" is when you try to reinvent the power of these tools for literally no coherent reason.
I really miss pg.

I have given away many copies of Hackers and Painters and have forwarded many more pdf copies of it (pirated, sorry, but for a good cause) due to exactly the same reason that Gideons place their book in hotel rooms or YW's give away their "literature": I was trying to convert people to his way of objective, no holds barred, minimalist way of thinking/writing. Unfortunately, his approach has been equated by many to the "SV hacker types have an answer to all world's great problems and they're all wrong and naive" school of thought, the belittlement and maligning of which is very much in vogue nowadays.

But these people miss the point. pg is interesting precisely because he was (is?) so different from mainstream SV thinking (compare&contrast sama's writings and his essays, not saying one is better but they are quite different). Read his essay "What You cannot Say" (http://www.paulgraham.com/say.html) as an antidote to current hysterical state of thought, "What You'll Wish You'd Known" (http://www.paulgraham.com/hs.html) should be required for all high school students around the world trying to shape their lives.

Hero worship from a founder-wannabe? Perhaps. Read the essays yourself and find out.
