You certainly should not need elevated privileges for Tor Browser but I realize that accessing their download site in the first place is the issue. I'd post a magnet link but doubt that follows the rules here.

You might want to put it in the search box as a term and include it in your subscription by clicking the checkbox (you can search for multiple things by separating them with comma's) I'll eventually make this easier as I have gotten multiple request for this but that's a good temporary solution. Hope this helps!
When I asked for a newer MBP, i got bitched out by the purchasing director. He made the point that I was one of only a handful of people in a 500 person IS department allowed to have a Mac.

Many companies don’t allow mac purchases, even for developers.

phew, I was hoping MAP wasn't going to come back to haunt me after all these years, haha.

If your application let students finish what they were doing without randomly crashing and losing everything, then it is leaps and bounds better than the MAP system.

The school had to extend the map testing by 2 weeks just because of how often it crashed and students had to retake it. My coworkers at other school districts in other states ran into the same exact issues. Then on Windows, it had to access a SMB share somewhere to dump data to a flat db... that would get corrupted sometimes when a students application froze up... haha. it was job security though.
>Remember, no car in history ever had 500,000 pre-orders. No car even came close. If anyone expected Tesla to ramp up to that kind of production overnight, they are delusional.

At the same time this is an admission that Musk is/was selling a delusion to people when Tesla set it's production goals.
Yep, exactly. It's a shame how anti-consumer everyone on here has become.
Aircraft Terminal Approach Remote Inceptor. An unfortunate choice of an acronym, yes, just like KGB (Knowledge Generation Bureau) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowledge_Generation_Bureau
iOS has limited multitasking and multiple windows. I can have my terminal open with Slack on the side, for example. I have come to prefer having the entire screen devoted to a single task — fewer distractions. iOS also has keyboard shortcuts for switching apps.

Text selection does suck, as I mentioned in the article.

I’m forced to work over ssh in any case. I work on legacy applications, for multiple clients, and most of them would need a lot of work and stubbing in weird dependencies to run locally. I used to try to run them on a MacBook, and even when I got them to work it was a lot of trouble and never a real duplicate of the production application. Much easier to clone the whole thing into a cloud server for development.

I have tried most of the cloud IDEs. Cloud9 works the best but not with iOS.

I can get all of the source code on the iPad with Working Copy and I can edit code offline with Textastic. I just can’t run it or push to the server until I get back online.
Russian submarines are lurking near the underwater internet cables
They built 9766 Model 3 in Q1 and were able to surge out 2000 in the last 7 days, and claim a doubling in their Model 3 production rate over Q1.

Something doesn't really add up there. Regardless of their spin their Q1 must have been hellish on the guys and gals on the floor and in production support.

I hope they can do a sustainable ramp soon so my friends can get their Model 3s.

I would REALLY love to see what their internal messaging on this is.
And if you are willing to take on the burden of an extensive economic analysis of the marginal cost and benefit of every new housing unit, by all means go ahead.

Long term benefits are meaningless as they would impact long term property taxes. It's only a question of new construction which is a fairly simplistic annalists.

Facebook doesn't have the circle feature. It's publish to everyone only.

You can send a group message, which I suppose can sort of function like a circle, especially if it's long lived. But it would hard to manage many of those.

I'm not really sure what the benefit of having a remote operator landing the plane vs having a computer do it. I guess the remote pilot can be the third tier in who can land the plane (in-seat pilot, computer, ship remote pilot) and for UAVs (UAV pilot, computer, ship remote pilot). Is the automated landing system that crappy that they want to add in a remote operator? If they can already land a plane automatically, the the next step they should focus on is an automated air traffic control, landing and launching any planes within the 5 mile radius (assuming that doesn't already exist). Imagine a smaller carrier like a LHD totally devoted to UAVs that launch and land without anyone on the tarmac.
Maybe. Some of the production process is brilliant. At the same time, some of it is far less sophisticated than you might imagine from much publicized reports. And they have skeletons, alright.
1. apple likely believes intel's hardware division benefits from apple's large investment in compilers. In general, apple is attacking all its technology partners to cut them out of the stack (i.e. qualcomm).

2. apple seems to be underestimate the value of openness in driving certain kinds of customers to their hardware (developers, for example). Further splitting the ecosystem will drive some users to linux laptops. (Hear hear).

3. intel's incentives are now highly aligned with the linux community (esp given msft's windows shutdown)

4. this is the first time since 2005 that there's a legitimate spread trade between intc and aapl.

Previous studies like these have generally shown that young attractive females make considerably more than male employees with a similar level of education and experience, but as you go up in age the trend reverses with older or less attractive female employees making less. Basically there is a bias, but it isn't so much gender in general as it is being attractive sexually (or not as the case may be). I'm not aware of any study that has tested if that applies to both genders (from the data it very clearly applies to females, but there may be a lesser effect applied to males as well), but that would be something interesting to look at. I suspect it would show there is a similar bias applied to males, but with a significantly smaller effect that's mostly lost in the noise.
The best way around this is to have education. Especially on topics like statistics literacy (not really just statistics, but how to read them), journalism, lobbyism and propaganda. These things should be taught in high school. Taking apart arguments in old propaganda (where there is less political motive) and encouraging people to look out for new propaganda.

Of course it doesn't seem the government would be interested in having such an educated populace.
I am sure all the people he will be leading are passionate, he may not have to deal with the run of the mill org issues. Being promoted gives him more influence/power to implement his vision.
It's not just the kids. I've never been so bored with the internet.
Hi, I am Rocky Sharma.

EduClan is just another LMS provider like teachable and docebo. The major difference being format of LMS provided.

My plan was to focus on providing elearning solution for schools and Individual Home Tutor too with restricted to public open model option.

With Open-model, I mean something like udemy.com, Currently supported formats are:-

1. Public Multi teacher LMS.
2. Private Multi teacher LMS with registration close.
3. Private Multi teacher LMS with registration open.

4. Private Single teacher LMS with registration close.
5. Private Single teacher LMS with registration open.

The IDEA was to let Home-Tutor too open their LMS for one-one coaching to students at a very small fee of 5$ a month.

The IDEA is yet evolving and I am looking for more suggestion and feedback here to add up more features and solve the problem.

Thanks
Senior Care Costs: How to Cover Life Transitions (Barry Bridges March 9, 2018
How are the other makers "years behind" Tesla? The Model S is the best-selling EV but not by an order of magnitude. GM was pretty close last year in sales and I don't think it's a bad bet to bet that GM will beat Tesla in getting self-driving tech (GM Cruise is only second to Waymo in testing self-driving, at least in California).

https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/12/30/the-5-best-selling...

https://www.theverge.com/2018/1/31/16956902/california-dmv-s...

Tesla deserves credit for getting other automakers to take the EV market seriously, but they are by no means years behind Tesla in terms of production and sales.
Looking at the local timeline of functional.cafe there is hardly any tech related toots, much less functional programming. Is this expected of Mastodon networks? I noticed the same thing with bsd.network.
I don't know about this, but I'd love to see Apple make 3rd party data aggregators individually authorized or not via system dialogs. It would require some policing, but shifting these to opt-in instead of opt-out would be an amazing step in the right direction.

App authors would then be able to decide whether they wanted to let you use their app despite you declining to let them send/sell* your data to a third party.

* most app creators would claim they don't sell users data. But they need to acknowledge that when they receive free telemetry services for their app from a 3rd party, they are doing exactly that: selling user data in exchange for a service that would otherwise have some expense (in dev time or otherwise).
This is probably true.
The article doesn’t say anything about something like that...
Real life stubbornly resists all attempts to make it more fair.

An 8% difference in either direction is acceptable to me. It's good enough to tolerate until it's worth revisiting for further improvements. So now that we have the gender pay gap (almost) sorted out, perhaps we should tackle a problem more likely to cause societal problems: the increasing measures of wealth inequality.
RFC 1925: The Twelve Networking Truths
> "Sometimes I feel like I’ve seen everything there is to see on the internet"

That's very sad, and a direct result in my opinion of the gamification of digital attention. If it's not on ${social_network} and doesn't earn you Likes then it might as well not exist.

Even just pressing Random Article in Wikipedia would be a step up out of that abyss.

But first teenagers have to relearn the ability to self-discover, like previous generations did in libraries, instead of sitting staring at a feed waiting for something to be pushed to them.

And the second lesson might be that not everything has an immediate feeback. I still reach back to things that I learned about by chance on the Web and Usenet back in the 90s.
Thanks for everything except the condescension!
That's a strong statement with zero backing. Who else should be equal?

This experiment has been tried and it failed miserably, read up on the Soviet Union.
If that kind failure recovery is important, then no tightly integrated device is a good choice.
> Their critics are very loudly proclaiming Tesla is an immense failure, that the Model 3 is a failure, and that they're going bankrupt in a matter of months.

This is a classic straw man. You've created a fictional persona which you then describe as:

> The FUD being broadly directed at Tesla is astounding and reeks of bias of one sort or another.

How about we stick to what other posters you're replying to are actually saying rather than creating fictional personas in order to then attack them.
Twitter thread on map generation
The Model T is not a competitor.
Always appreciate different news sources and ways to further educate myself.

>It depends on the job. What you say applies mainly to Twitter-empowered employees at consumer-facing tech companies.

It may depend on the job, one of them falls into the consumer facing tech company bucket (marketing).

However my other job was an analyst role at a Financial Services company which you typically expect to be male dominated and where you might expect this sex discrimination to occur.

It could have been the specific company I worked for (small sample size), but I found it to be a fair and equal opportunity hiring/promoting process at least for those early on in their career.

Actually you can create a circle (might be called a list?) and publish just to that circle. People just mostly don't bother, because managing circles is so much effort.
I'm curious that you're taking issue specifically with taking credit and reinventing the wheel. Avoiding those things is the same as not stealing. I don't think it's academic at all. If you're using someone else's idea, and you just don't want to put some effort into finding the original owner of that idea, don't blame the author for it.
Not sure why you're being downvoted, boredom is incredibly important if you want to synthesize data. We're constantly absorbing huge quantities of news and information all day but never sit down and actually think about it.

Eh, if it's a binary package system it's a very nice one--perhaps an historically nice one.

Unlike most package systems, most people that develop in docker containers are writing the equivalent of a package manifest (Dockerfile), and they're doing it for things that weren't previously packaged. While there are plenty of exceptions, the standard for deployment of webapps has long been piecemeal deployments; not RPMs or whatnot. Docker's convenience features changed that.

Also, the layering system/virtual filesystems are integrated into Docker such that it yields a ton of convenience (in "extending" others images, speeding up deployments/caching, and making huge/arbitrary changes to the filesystem highly reversible) without making users manually manage most of it. There are times when the abstraction leaks (looking at you, hard limit on number of layers), and all of the component technologies that went into it existed before, but as I've posted elsewhere in the comments here, the big advantage of docker is that it integrates those technologies in a way that provides a simple mental model for reasoning about containers, and a very convenient/beginner-accessible toolset for packaging really complex dependencies. Even the nicest "typical" packaging tools out there (rpm/dpkg are pretty crufty, but stuff like Nix and FPM are getting quite nice) still have much rougher edges.
Would you be able to explain why wealth inequality is a societal problem and not actually a feature? I've long heard this but never was convinced

They touch on something later in the article that sounds perfectly familiar to me from my teen years: eventually that unavoidable and universal boredom can lead to creativity.

Just as people my age saw TV go from 13 channels to 150+ channels and wondered how you could ever run out of things to entertain yourself, today's teens run into the same limited ability of "consumption" to keep their minds stimulated.

Eventually there's nothing on that you feel like watching, your mobile media feed runs out of new posts, and you get tired of playing the same video games. That period of boredom can be just what you need for ideas to start percolating in your head and occasionally lead you to make something or do something different.

Boredom is what got me screwing around with simple programming on my old Commodore computer or figuring out how to use a mix of cables, adapters, and stereo inputs on my boombox to experiment with rudimentary multi-track recording.

To this day I love having a good supply of parts, bits, pieces, craft supplies, and yes--boredom available on occasion because that's when I try out new ideas. When the alternative is just sitting around doing the same old things, the barriers to trying new ones tend to drop.

Five hours new does not stay five hours for long. Really what people want is to have ~3 hours 2+ years from now.
Optimism isn’t delusional. They’re already making ~192k vehicles a year at their current 3/S/X production rate (which will only increase).

You would have to be malicious or ignorant to think that can’t be scaled up to NUMMIs previous 350k/year run rate in the next 3-12 months.

I've yet to see any evidence of this being true, it appears to be a claim backed by endless "news" articles that have sourced other such articles in some giant stack of crypto-turtles.
There's a number of questions on this thread about Telsa's production uptick being about "burning the late night oil" or automation. Does anyone have any reliable insight into this question?

And, regarding their automation, a few honest questions:

1. How much automation are we talking about, compared to the status quo?

2. How much of the automation is reusable across other models? Are they building up a repeatable model to increase scale at a lower cost?

Na, it makes perfect sense, especially if the person isn't socially retarded or unfit for management. They're able to contribute meaningfully to broad architectural designs to have a larger impact then hacking away at a single project, which also imparts their thought process to a larger group of developers who may end up in his shoes one day. Ideally someone in his shoes can recognize top talent and ideas as well, and clear organization barriers away for individuals and groups to achieve large things as well. Besides, people with his ability and experience should know everything that is going on to influence what the company chooses to do with its money and time over a political bonehead.
