From that description, I would guess a form of focal plane tomography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_plane_tomography), but http://far.in.tum.de/pub/sielhorst2008jdt/sielhorst2008jdt.p... says

”The first setup augmenting imaging data registered to an object was described in 1938 by the Austrian mathematician Steinhaus. He described the geometric layout to reveal a bullet inside a patient with a pointer that is visually overlaid on the invisible bullet. This overlay was aligned by construction from any point of view and its registration works without any computation. However, the registration procedure is cumbersome and it has to be repeated for each patient. The setup involves two cathodes that emit X-rays projecting the bullet on a fluoroscopic screen (see Fig. 2). On the other side of the X-ray screen, two spheres are placed symmetrically to the X-ray cathodes. A third sphere is fixed on the crossing of the lines between the two spheres and the two projections of the bullet on the screen. The third sphere represents the bullet. Replacing the screen with a semi-transparent mirror and watching the object through the mirror, the third sphere is overlaid exactly on top of the bullet from any point of view. This is possible because the third sphere is at the location to which the bullet is mirrored. Therefore, the setup yields stereoscopic depth impression. The overlay is restricted to a single point and the system has to be manually calibrated for each augmentation with the support of an X-ray image with two X-ray sources.”

It's not possible to buy gears due to the "module" (I don't know how to translate it), it's a factor of scale that influence the spacing between gears.

The hardest parts are the springs (balance spring and mainspring) and the screws (there are so small, it's a specific norm, see NIHS for Normes de l'Industrie Horlogère Suisse).
For the gear cutting, there is an example here [pdf link]: http://www.cowells.com/docs/cutter.pdf

There is a lot of custom machine tools, many of them are needed to resolve problems that an individual doesn't care.
But there is always alternative ways and it's the fun and watchmaker's task to find them!

So there is not really indispensable tools as it depends a lot of the project. Expect if you want to make specific watch decorations, like perlage, guillochage, soleillage...

I can't find links but there is an operation named roulage where the guiding parts of the pinions are hardened, it's not indispensable if you don't want an industrial grade, kind of.

The simplest design is the roskopf movement.
Really depends on if one thinks his being fired to be the appropriate response.
If (like you seem to think) it is, then sure, there is no issue about workers' rights here.

If you tend to believe him that this was an honest mistake, or even just that there's sufficient doubt, then the conclusion would probably be that he shouldn't have been fired, and his having been fired becomes a question of "how could this happen".
And to this the (my) answer is "insufficient workers' rights, allowing a company to take an easy way out at the cost of an individual".

My personal opinion especially now is that gifted programs are a waste of time for the following reasons:

1) All students should be learning the fundamentals.

2) If you are gifted, being able to work with, communicate with, and help people less gifted than you is going to be a valuable life skill.

3) Finding new intellectually challenging things to do even in boring circumstances is a useful skill to learn. Even Einstein had to sit through boring faculty meetings.

4) In a gifted class, the child is probably substantially smarter than the teachers. Highly gifted people aren't going into elementary education in large enough numbers for their to be enough gifted teachers for the number of gifted students.

5) With the Internet and widespread knowledge, the truly gifted can learn so much on their own. Once a child knows how to read, curiosity, ability, and time are the only limits. With a truly gifted child, the less challenging the schoolwork is, the more time and energy they can dedicate to other things.

6) A stable, nurturing family that values and encourages intellectual achievement is probably far more important than what kind of school you go to as long as the school is competent.

With regards to number 5, how many of you that learned programming as a kid, leaned it in school vs learned it on your own by reading books or via the Internet?

As a society we should strive to make school something that teaches to basics well for all children and stimulates curiosity and gives children the necessary tools to learn on their own.

* As an example of a gifted child, Von Neumann https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_von_Neumann is a much better example than Einstein.

I'm not sure that's entirely accurate. They say they will create some core infrastructure, including internet and power at the very least. They likely aren't constructing it themselves, but they are probably financing and overseeing this core piece.
0rtt is still useful for static assets, and generally everything that is public. I have a handful of static websites (literally static, as in consisting of just HTML and CSS files), for those 0rtt is awesome. TLS is no longer used to only protect private pages (eg. access to your private emails, the admin section of a CMS). It's also used for privacy reasons on completely public websites.
>Migrate database to new schema... spin up new instance

Sadly this is more of a pain in Django, since it does not write default values to the database. To be able to safely run the migration first, one must manually rewrite the SQL for the migration. [1]

I wonder if fresh eyes don’t see the “stigma” of a duct tape approach; rather seeing a good-enough solution for now that’ll work. Instead of agonizing over a better way to do it, they implement and get on with it.

I think more senior engineers fall into the trap of seeing the maintenance burdens ahead and not wanting to, or not being able to, make the call to use the duct tape.

Or politicized unemployed people chopping your head off because you took their jobs and gave nothing back. It goes both ways.

Perhaps the poster isn't particularly articulate. There are hawks on both sides of the isle, but I'm not necessarily convinced that they're comparably equal. I personally would be interested who's backers benefit most from policies of force, and perhaps map it to their economic incentives in state economies and campaigning. I get the impression it's at least publicly conceived that Republican appeal to a more hardline defensive policies looking back 4 administrations, at least at a policy level.

I don't know if I can do it but I would really like to dramatically lower the bar for people to change careers. I think a lot of people get stuck in their careers which they pick too early and then the costs of switching are way too high (lack of information, available learning resources, other barriers to entry).

The job market is very skewed towards specialists which causes a lot of "must have experience to get experience" chicken-and-egg issues. i.e. "find someone who has done X for 5 years". I think that is fine, but there should be an avenue to value and recruit people with diverse experiences i.e. someone who has done X -AND- Y.

I think the key solve is to help companies take on people who want to career switch but have applicable prior experience that you're not completely throwing away either. I think this happens anyway so I'm completely unsure what if anything I can do to help it.
You don't need a domain-specific tool for every problem your business has. If a spreadsheet works, great. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

In a similar vein, there are plenty of small software teams that use nothing more than a whiteboard for project management. Yet there are teams tooled up with Jira/Trello/Slack with much less productivity.
I was wondering whether someone would make a statement like this. Nothing satisfies like enjoying our infinite God.

Dropbox's core product is trying to tack on P to CA systems. The CAP theorem explains how well this will actually work out. It's good they raised a bunch of cash, because they need to diversify their product base beyond that confused core. Time will tell if they do or not. Currently, I do not view them as a good long term investment.

> Looking for a SaaS idea? Ask random people in a target industry what kinds of things they do with Excel.

I understand where you're coming from, but this is just not good advice. Somebody (I can't remember if it was pg, Joel Spolsky, or someone else) once wrote an entire essay basically saying "DON'T make a startup that's just pivot tables. I have seen so many SaaS startups fail because they didn't realize they were just selling pivot tables at a much higher price than Microsoft wants for Excel."

Also take a look at this HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12450802 where a whole bunch of people express bafflement of and loathing for people who unnecessarily replace Excel with half-baked software. It seems like a good idea; it's usually not.
So the lesson you learned wasn't that you had the power to choose what you learned and how to do so responsibly?

Did you instead learn these things?:

• exercising that power could lead to you losing a skill

• doing so is bad

• you don't have the power to choose your own course corrections when you notice a skill waning

Based on your suggestion that children need to be controlled, I think your experience was limited and too short.
The ROC is doing itself no favours by sticking to its interpretation of the One China Policy which entails that the ROC leadership is the solve legitimate ruler of the mainland, too!
When the PRC was weak, there was probably an opening where the ROC could have dropped its pretensions towards ruling the mainland, in exchange for PRC acceptance of ROC nationhood.
But I suspect its too late now, since the PRC is so powerful now.

I also think the real reason why the PRC leadership is bullying the ROC is that the ROC is a clear example that democracy, wealth and Chinese culture are perfectly compatible -- thus falsifying the communist's party's justification of its claim to power.

I don't know about Nomad, though Hashicorp's Vault is going to do just fine I think. It fills in a gap in secrets management that K8S doesn't do out of the box.

Looking at doing Vault in HA leads people to look at Consul, which leads to Nomad. (Consul uses a consensus protocol for service discovery and I think that will be interesting for the next generation).

Last year, K8S had already captured the center of gravity, and it took a while for the rest of the dev community to catch up.

I think this year ia a lot of shuffling as the survivors settles into orbit around K8S. There is a lot of interesting innovations up the stack once orchestration is de facto standardized.

K8S still hasn't solved the stateful workloads, though it is introducing a lot of primitives to support those: controller hooks, third part resources, on top of which Operators can function.

I think we will see a lot more innovations as people create Operators. That can include anything from stateful loads for specific distributed stateful loads, to things like intrusion detection, ML-driven autoscaling, and so forth.
It's fading out of use in most of Europe, as far as I can tell. My grandmother used to always say WC in Norway. I don't know of anyone in my parents generation (born around 1950) or younger that'd use it. We're mostly all familiar with it still though.

I don't remember roll-backs ever being in the OSS project either. We always do potentially destructive operations in two different migrations since you'll never get data back once you delete it. We tend to favor soft-deletes anyway which makes life a lot easier but can bloat your DB.
I bike-shedded in this thread about exponentiation. But taking a step back the bigger issue is there are so many poorly justified features thrown in.

I don't have the feeling that the authors appreciate the appeal of C as a simple language that maps closely to hardware features.

This is a big random collections of extensions that piqued some implementor's fancy. There is seemingly no effort at narrowing down to the cleanest or most important ideas. It totally kills the clean, simple aesthetics of the the base C languge.
I agree that the actual, legal and historical situations ROC/PRC vs
UK/Scotland are quite different. I was pointing towards the
similarity of a (potential) positive, peaceful resolution, --
indeed one where secession was ultimately rejected. Who knows,
maybe a peaceful, gentle PRC can tempt the ROC into a peaceful
union?

I should have expressed myself more clearly.

> Taiwan is de facto an independent country.

Taiwan should formally be an independent country in a just world,
but de facto every political decision in Taiwan in made in the
shadow of the immediate threat of PRC violence. Ultimately
political power comes "from the barrel of a gun" and the PRC has a
lot more barrels than the ROC.

I find Dostoyevsky to be incredibly approachable to the modern reader. There’s a wry sense of humor in his work (and other contemporary Russian authors) that feels closer to Seinfeld than say Shakespear. It’s very dark but the themes and internal dialog of the characters are shockingly fresh. The Brothers K is also an excellent read.

Gallup Study Shows Well-Being in Decline Across America
Yes to this.

People should always add up the total interest they're going to pay on a 30-year mortgage, some states require this to be prominently displayed on the loan. The amount is truly staggering.

Given that your average money-market is barely reaching 2%, the old saw of "it's better to save and service the mortgage" is complete BS and pro-bank propaganda. Mortgages are simply another wealth-transfer to the banks, including the mortgage-interest deduction: corporate welfare pure and simple. Read Liar's Poker if you want to really understand why that boondoggle is in place.

And never forget that easy mortgages, which have ludicrously enriched the banks, are the reason why real estate is so inhumanly overvalued now. The mortgage interest deduction was central to securitizing loans and we're all paying the price now.

What matters is not when Windows XP was originally released, but when its official support ended, which according to Wikipedia was on April 2014. Both Firefox and Thunderbird supported Windows XP for a few more years after that (since Windows XP was and is still popular even after its official support ended); version 52 of both (which is an ESR release) is going to be the last one with support for Windows XP.

The operating system support doesn't change within a major release, which is why 52.7 has the same operating system support as 52.0.

Interested in a concrete example of where you see a migration being impossible without downtime; I'm not aware of Amazon or Google taking their APIs down for maintenance, which suggests that you can solve these problems with enough engineering spend.

If you're just saying here that some systems aren't currently able to migrate in a hitless way, rather than claiming that it would never be possible for some systems, then I fully agree. Hitless migrations require a lot of work, and probably aren't worth the cost for many applications/systems.

Websites using Facebook login usually don't ask for any of your Facebook information, just your email address. They also implicitly have the public information on your profile since they have your Facebook ID, and I suppose it does reveal information to say that this user and email address is associated with this public Facebook profile. But they definitely don't get anything close to the read permissions you have on Facebook.

What Uber comes down to is, I believe, essentially the same as the famous Zuckerberg chat message: 'They "Trust me". Dump fucks!'. Saying that isn't illegal by itself. But it shows a complete disregard for the publics' interests.

Every single one of Uber's actions could actually be excused. When, for example, Google admitted to capturing unencrypted Wifi traffic picked up by their Street View cars, I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, because that explanation seemed more consistent with their past (and future) behaviour than the alternative.

But the sum of Uber's actions leads me to believe they have misunderstood the causality their own motto proclaims, and are now intentionally breaking things in the hope that it will make them move faster.
