The original mistake derives from the fact that the word for "competition" is "concorrenza" in Italian.

That is the most common meaning, but "concorrenza" also has a very uncommon one, which is indeed "concurrency".

This is not much of a surprise though. The Latin origin of both words is "cum currere" which means "run together. Why it got to mean competition in Italian I don't know.

(It must be noted though that the verb "concorrere" keeps the meaning of running together and does not mean to compete. For that the verb is "competere")

But no one would use "concorrenza" for "concurrency" in Italy. The best substitutes that come to mind are "parallelismo", or, less common "concomitanza".

Probably someone very rich wants to buy that account. Otherwise they would have told you it is for their very nice future product.
No questions, just a thanks for making Nomorobo.
He might be making money, but he does not seem to be actually creating anything of actual value - it seems to be only by selling shit to other people who want to be like him.

Comes across like another version of the self help industry.
The part you’re missing is that nobody else bothered to release a competing generic for all these years because there was no money in the market.

And, exactly as you’d expect the market to work, after the price hikes a company did release a generic alternative.
Care to point to Amazon(or other sites) product pages? May be useful for some of us looking to buy.
We just acquired a company that was several times larger than ours, onboarded everyone with Justworks into our current workforce and didn't seem to run into any real issues.
Google a bit about the "misty" stealth satellite design that is apparently related to the NRO...

If you wanted to "lose" a satellite by launching it into a known orbit, you could design a satellite that is matte black, physically stealthy, with a very large supply of xenon propellant and ion thruster so that over a period of many months it could totally change its orbital plane into something new.

Plane change maneuvers are very expensive in terms of delta-V, but the US certainly has the money to launch things that have a thousand kg of extra propellant on board.

Or some combination of plane change and movement into a highly elliptical/molniya type orbit.

Thereby making it quite difficult for opposing nation-state level agencies to locate.

edit: the easy way to know if spacex screwed up or not is if they receive future "national security" launch missions. If no further such missions occur, and the feds continue shoveling money at United Launch Alliance, that would be telling.
Yup, when I doing some research for an engagement ring I read "reviews" on Moisanite arguing that it wasn't as nice as a real diamond because it had "too much sparkle." So I got the Moisanite and my fiance loved and gets compliments on it all the damn time!

tl;dr - Since in California all construction requires an absurd amount of licenses, approvals, environmental studies, etc., and because local residents can sue for almost anything, the cost has skyrocketed.

Isn't this what eminent domain was created for? Shouldn't California state have the ability to make things happen for its own rail projects?

There was a post about this a while ago but that's pretty US-centric.

In Japan there is a lot of attention on Embedded Ruby (hence the performance improvements). 99% of the professional Ruby work that I've done here in NY is not Rails. I've done everything from webdev (Jekyll, Sinatra), ETL work, to systems engineering all in Ruby. I've toyed around with Ruby & SDL but the performance at the time (4 years ago) was not good.
Salary range and the attributes of what a candidate would need to get to be the top of that range.

Appearances of avoiding or deferring that discussion frustrate me immensely, as it seems like the company is trying to compensate with fluff before getting to the facts of it. This is because - at the end of the day - salary is simply the most important thing. It is how you provide for yourself and your family. It is how you build wealth and stability and safety for your life, and nothing else comes close. When my company provides me, via a solid salary, this financial security, I am 200% invested in making its mission successful, whatever the tech stack or other details of the role.
In the last few years, I'm finding myself more and more interested in planetarium exploration. Now of course heading to Jupiter isn't on that list, however I'm still intrigued with the recent findings.

To be fair, he answered your question. He confirmed there is no way to get it w/o sign-up, but acknowledged there should be and commited to provide it.

Yea, since you know how to make the perfect products, perhaps you should just take githubs money.

Edit: To clarify, looking back it's simple to just make such assumptions. But many popular sites have existed off of this model which github holds such as facebook, twitter, myspace back in the day IIRC. I'm not saying Github made the perfect decision at the time, but they didn't make a foolish one necesarily given the landscape of how user based sites have existed.
"weirdly weird weirds no one knows"
The fact that it's by design makes it an upside?
Could you show the range and then right before someone submits a resume they have to answer 1 or 2 questions. Like -really- basic stuff would weed out a lot of the bots and "I use computers, I can do it!" people. Just needs to be something that takes like 5 minutes or less.

Just me but I'd rather know salary up front and not spend an entire interview just to be low-balled. Wastes everyone's time.
Thanks. I recall a presentation by researchers from MIT's Lincoln Lab discussion space object tracking as an area of research.

> https://www.ll.mit.edu/
> For instance? I'm honestly just curious about what you think is especially challenging

Well, just look up active research labs at any top-tier university. Or peruse the work that's happening in top industry labs. And then realize that there are lots of groups within companies working on similar types of problems.

And then a lot of stuff that's not "research" but still demands lots of background in some field of science/engineering in order to avoid Bad Things. Designing the control software for a new power plant, for example.

> So do we agree that software development is, on average, mid-tech?

I'm not sure the question is even well-formed. It's like asking if "health-care" is mid-tech. Well, certain nurses certainly are. Neurosurgeons certainly aren't.

> The software I was building in that after-school job in high school isn't a whole lot different to the dominant types of projects I see out there today

TBF maybe you shouldn't have been building that software without a lot more training? Maybe the lack of seriousness in the software industry is fundamentally unethical. See Equifax.

As a high schooler I built software that interfaced with a database containing a shitload of social security numbers/dobs/names/addresses. I should not have been allowed to build public-facing interfaces to that database without oversight from a practiced software engineer.

Which is exactly my point. The FCC rejected Swarm's experimental license application in December 2017 (thus the letter) because they were worried about orbital debris. They should be focusing on the RF characteristics of the satellite and earth stations instead.

I believe the OP was saying power providers should charge slightly more for each cumulative kilowatt hour someone consumes. This way, the top 10% of consumers end up paying more per kW-hr than the median consumer.

The current situation has this reversed: the top consumers of power negotiate discounted rates. So while they use 1000 times more power than the average person, they only pay 70 times as much.

Going Solo: A Blueprint for Going Out on Your Own
How much of this is to do with the fact that these cleaners are being put into the air as vapor through a diffuser (the spray-bottle's nozzle); and how much has to do with the fact that these chemicals are volatiles that will evaporate off of the surfaces they're on and then travel into the lungs as a gas?

That is, if I wore a dust mask while I cleaned—or if I sprayed the cleaner directly into a cloth pressed against the bottle, then rubbed the cloth against the surface—would that help? It'd reduce cleanser vaporization, I'd think, but not do much to help with avoiding evaporated cleanser gas.
He’s not protected by that either—Imprimis released a competing generic shortly after the price hikes. All Shkreli did was identify a mispriced drug, and profit during the short duration it took for the market to correct itself.

You’re begging the question: what is “exploitation?” Is it “exploitation” to make money from helping someone? If so, why is that worse than not helping someone at all?

It’s like saying the guy who charges $10,000 to put the fire out on your house is worse than the guy who doesn’t do anything.

> Also, TIL according to the C standard, 'main' is not a reserved identifier! (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34764796/why-does-declar...)

That's not quite true.

Main is not required to be defined in a freestanding environment, but in a hosted environment:

> 5.1.2.2.1 Program startup

> 1

> The function called at program startup is named

> main. The implementation declares no prototype for this function. It shall be defined with a return type of int and with no parameters:

int main(void) { /* ... */ }

> or with two parameters (referred to here as argc and argv, though any names may be used, as they are local to the function in which they are declared):

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { /* ... */ }

> or equivalent; 10) or in some other implementation-defined manner.

main can take on differing types, but it then becomes undefined-behaviour, which allows the compiler to do whatever it wants.

Maceration is quicker than CO2 asphyxiation. Animals (including humans) can detect high levels of CO2 but most (rodents are an exception) can't detect low levels of oxygen.

Both recommend inert gas asphyxiation but in the context of adult birds.

"They did not violate any FCC regulations."

If they weren't incorporated in the United States and planning to operate in the US, then they might not need to satisfy the FCC. But....
Yes, I agree... I mean I don't disagree with the principle that corporations should be spanked for intentionally launching orbital debris that is below the tracking size threshold. 1U cubesat is not so difficult. I am just not sure that the FCC is the appropriate agency to be regulating orbital two line elements, minimum satellite bus size, etc.

The USAF/NORAD operates the US feds' space tracking functionality but is not set up to regulate things, they provide Secret and TS level data to agencies like the NRO and other parts of the USAF (for missions like the X-37), but I don't think the USAF spacetrack agency has any regulatory authority. Probably it should have such, if this sort of thing continues.
Just because he has a lot of money, how does this qualify him to make such a judgement that is worthy of a headline?

I've been following Josip's work on and off for years now (he's probably on every big white hat hall of fame there is), and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't go public even if it took them a month to fix this.

Currently, using Gremlin on AWS Neptune.
The learning curve was steep.

If the situation calls for it, sure! The current use case is sort of up in the air. The decision was made to use a graph database to store the mutation of records over time, but then the higher ups want to limit what's put in it, so... I'm not sure if the computation costs are worth what it's actually capable of. From what I'm gathering, if one is looking to store complex data, which is highly connected through edge-case relationships, as in, greater than 5 types of edges, then it might be worth looking into, but I can't imagine how a dynamic/traditional table database wouldn't have been faster in terms of what we need it for, querying large lists of data, with 3-4 edge traversals.

I only have a year~+ of experience with databases, so grain of salt. In terms of personal preference, working with a graph database has been quite fun.
I wish there was a way to opt out. I will willingly sign a contract to never use said system (if it ever gets finished), in return for not sponsoring it anymore with my taxes.

I'd prefer those taxes to instead go somewhere useful, like paying teachers better.

IMO the FAA should be the responsible regulatory agency.

Yep that is what the internal recruiters are for. We have something like pay depending on experience, You should talk to them and they'll discuss. Definitely you should know what is possible before interviewing.

So he cried and pleaded for leniency after being openly a jackass the entire time.

I have a child who is not innately good at the social thing. When he was 8, he spent weeks torturing me for giggles because he knew I was not an abusive parent, so he felt like he could get away with it. That stopped when I told him "The point at which you are going to care about my feelings is when you want something from me and my answer is Fuck You."

Apparently, Martin's mom should have had a similar conversation with him at some point. Cuz now it hurts and he thinks we supposed to care about his feefees when he never cared about anyone but him.

> First, while the FCC clearly has US authority over spectrum, how is it that its charter includes satellite launches? Or conversely, if they SpaceBees never turn on did they violate the license? And on what basis does the FCC get to evaluate the risk of other things in orbit, isn't that NORAD's job? And what if this had been a startup in Bangalore or Mumbai, would they be getting crap from the FCC for launching the very same satellites?

It's just an expansion of their mandate happens all the time. Instead of creating a whole new department just to regulate launches adding it to the department that will be issuing a license anyways (anything worth putting up is going to be transmitting down so pretty much any launch will have the FCC looking at it already).

As for the rest it's really hard to do much of anything covertly in space, if it's above the size of a softball the DoD will pick it up on it's space monitoring sensors. Same thing with changing orbits unannounced they'll know within at most an orbit when the object suddenly is not where they expect it to be.

In the end the answer is could you? Yes, theoretically. But you'd have to find a launch company willing to host you and prey you have somewhere good to hide/a host strong enough to protect you because you're going to piss off every single country with a space program.
> positive action

The relevant inquiry isn't "positive action" versus "inaction" but causation. The bystander doesn't cause you to get mugged; he simply declines to prevent it. Likewise, raising the price on Daraprim doesn't cause you to get toxoplasmosis, it simply changes the terms on which the third party is willing to prevent the harm.

So the proper analogy is standing by while someone gets mugged, charging him $10 to stop the mugging, and charging him $1,000 to stop the mugging. The guy who does nothing is still the worst.
Parallelism isn't concurrency, though!
Higher ups make more money (which often helps their para-political careers), but mostly profits are going back in the business - not necessarily the same business. Some of it ends up in "friendly" political activities of every sort, some in cooperatives that are desperately unprofitable but politically convenient, some of it goes in real estate, etc etc.

This worked beautifully while managers and political directors were ideologically motivated and somewhat honest: the sectors making money were financing massive expansion everywhere else, pushing the model, and because workers were similarly motivated, overall costs were always pretty low, generating virtuous dynamics.

Then three things happened: the USSR collapsed, irreversibly killing the dream; long-term effects of bad hiring policies finally came to bear (historically, if you attempted a career in The Party and failed, someone would find you a job in a cooperative, regardless of your actual skills); and the wartime generation (people who had literally fought in the mountains and been persecuted under fascism) was naturally replaced by more cynical and greedy boomers.

Cooperatives slowly migrated towards a more traditional corporate setup, but worker compensation (unsurprisingly) was not adjusted. Coincidentally, Italy has been economically fragile since the late '80s, but because of the political implications, cooperatives tend to avoid redundancies (they do happen, but they are somewhat rarer than elsewhere); people value that security, so they kept voting with the boss. There are indications that this might have changed recently, but tbh I'm not close enough anymore to say whether that's true.
