I probably shouldn't be so surprised— but the number of esteemed academics I've had the chance to encounter I can count on one hand. Though many seem to share that same opinion.

The number of pretentious title-holders (even at the lowest minimum levels) I've met seems unending. I could get into that one... but I won't.

Instead you've just reminded me of yet more subjects to stack on my reading list.
kids who are not raised well are usually the ones who turn to things that are not looked upon well by their community and society. or kids who have some kind of festering problem. there are a some kids who are given zero guidance by their parents in school or life, or who are sabotaged by their parents, and if those kids are not exceptional in some way they will fall behind socially and academically. in this society, falling behind socially and academically to the point where you feel like you cant catch up is sort of like being handed a death sentence. so if you have no future, or you are convinced that you dont, then what is the point of avoiding cancer? what is the point of anything?
I was one of the first Developer Advocates when the Developer Advocacy team started a bit over a year ago. Highly recommend this team! Still loving it!

Have been seeing similar overload of information on Reddit as well (HN not quite there yet, but would imagine it's not too far behind). The front page is littered with images/gifs of bite size information/memes. A few years ago, I'd learn something new almost every time I visited the front page.

I created a tool [1] that lets users aggregate top posts from selected subreddits and receive a daily email summary, but I think there can be more done in this space. Would also like a better discovery mechanism for things that I may be interested in that aren't obviously connected to current content (e.g. someone interested in programming may be interested in art as well, if fed nice introduction to that information/scene, but current algos just stick to known interests).

What if the CSO informed engineering teams, got stonewalled, and, a few weeks later, escalated through the company's risk process (Panera is public, or was before it was bought by a public company, and will have a risk process). What do people here think a CSO does? If your mental model is: "decree that something is safe to deploy publicly, or else forbid its deployment", your model is broken. Most CSOs have an advisory role in the organization, and the real institutional power comes either from engineering or from the CIO.

This security director handled Dylan's bug report badly and deserves the reputation hit he's getting. But if we're going to suggest liability (let alone criminal liability) for security flaws, we should at least have some idea of what it is we're regulating.

FYI smoking and diabetes have about the same negative effect on life expectancy so I wouldn't say neutral. Adult on set diabetes can be avoided with diet and exercise yet people still eat poorly.
I'm no fan of Facebook. I quit using it in September last year . But for this particular issue, inciting of hate, they are no more or less guilty than the 'traditional' tabloid press.

Look at the comment section of your local 'populist' newspaper (over here it is https://www.hln.be/) and see how hate-speech rules supreme and how sensationalist articles are milking for those comments and like.
FWIW Alt-Tab, for me, does cycle through windows not apps, and windows within the same workspace only. Check SystemPreferences => Keyboard => Shortcuts => "Move focus to next window"
Yes!

Facebook’s extensive but little-discussed technology for scanning postings and chats for criminal activity automatically flagged the conversation for employees, who read it and quickly called police.

> Further, claiming down on Indian outsourcing companies will not increase American jobs

Of course it will - Indian outsourcing companies only have onshore staff because they have to.

> No one is ready to pay huge wages to maintain an aging ERP implementations

Costs were only 10-15% higher when the work was done locally. Companies will pay what they have to - I have no doubt American devs can be competitive in this space.

In the long term it will hasten the shift to cloud erp solutions and towards providers with a lower maintenance burden - IMO not a bad thing.
I know a lot of people suggest there is a market for a programming language / Excel hybrid and it looked like some of these prototypes at least partially leaned in that direction.

What would be the most successful new development that Eve discovered? What is the best part of this that we can take away?
Apple's watch now has a W2 chip that does Wifi and Bluetooth, and maybe even LTE (which is how they crammed it into such a tiny device).

Slowly but surely, they've put together all they'd need for a computer. Their T2 chips in the current iMac Pro handle encryption and NVME storage on the SSD's, as well as the camera image processing, Secure Enclave, and the SMC.
I've been searching for a light & thin computing device for intermittent travel needs where I can

- use SSH

- edit & run code (i.e. python / JS etc.)

- preferable running Ubuntu

- form factor of iPad or iPad Pro

- multitask with browser, terminal and editor

Your article is the closest thing I've found so far. The list of tools that you use are also useful, thank you !

If it had Ubuntu, it would have been a perfect solution for me.
The 4th reference I provided attributed the possibility of both weaker erections and a smaller circumference penis among active smokers. Did you read it?

It's not the gold standard of proof, but it seems not too far fetched.

Any opportunities for summer internship?
Correct me if I'm wrong - its also NOT illegal to do so, even if you are lying it is immoral but not illegal.

So I was once told by cop when i told them defendant is lying not showing up that he has good reasons. Unless you are under oath by very few LE organizations, its not illegal to lie.

Of course I'm not saying its a good thing; just pointing out they can say whatever they want to - there is no liability.
This would be understandable if it was for a mom and pop shop. Panera has the profit/revenue to hire a competent technical team. They obviously didn't.
I use a chromebook as a portable terminal in the data center. It's awesome. Termux for ssh sessions and common command line utilities, beagleterm if I need a serial console, and chrome for looking up stuff online. About 2 seconds from opening the cover to being usable, and battery that will last the whole workday.

Haiku | Multiple Positions | SF | REMOTE

Haiku is the app-building tool that unifies design and code.

Think of Haiku as a way to design and code interchangeably to build awesome UI components for any platform. It works with existing design tools (like Sketch and Figma) and existing codebases (including React, Vue, iOS, Android and React Native.)

Our website explains more: https://www.haiku.ai/

Haiku just graduated from YC (W18) and we're hiring for three REMOTE roles:

SENIOR ENGINEER with drawing tool or 3D game development experience. Looking for strong math skills, multi-language proficiency, and some years of experience (you've seen what works and what doesn't, and you know when to invent vs. reach for proven solutions.)

COPYWRITER with both technical and marketing chops. If you're a designer or a developer with a love for words, you would be a great fit for this role too.

CREATIVE ENGINEER or INTERACTION DESIGNER WITH CODE CHOPS. You'll use Haiku to create interactive content to level-up the UIs across our product lineup and more — this is a role with a lot of creative freedom. Looking for a technical artist. Bonus points if you know how to navigate to 7:30 and E.

Reach out to jobs@haiku.ai !
Agreed! There's a lot in the blockchain model that seems to lend itself to this problem in particular.

Ideally, we'd also like to set up a foundation to maintain and manage the ecosystem and invite both old and new players to participate. A lot of blockchain efforts seem to be a little too much like a hope for a monopoly wrapped in a thick layer of talk about free markets and democracy.

We're actively looking for collaboration and partnerships around this. If you, or anyone, would like to get involved we'd be happy to discuss. My email is in my profile.
It sounds like someone wanted /net and private namespaces from Plan 9, but they were stuck with Posix, and this is the catenary track they built to make the square wheels run smoothly.

I only see the article mentioning CPU (and GIL) once, but in any case, the generalisation is correct for any pure Python code. You can only release the GIL in extension code (for CPython), and in that point you’re not really dealing with Python threads (although you may use Python’s wrapper API for threading), but its underlying implementation (e.g. pthreads) instead. The framing of the statement is very important, and I wouldn’t call it overgeneralising in the context of this particular article.
Controlling Ubuntu Remote Desktop with an iPad is kind of cool. Maybe not full time.

Those are transient - they exist in the scope and for the duration of a conversation. You don't have to pause while sharing something a week later and wonder "who am I sharing that with again? Will the new friend I added yesterday see this, or do I have to add them to something?".
It's not hard to guess what's behind Gustavison's knee-jerk accusation of extortion. With his '1337 security skillz, he will have been getting actual extortion demands -- and probably paying them -- for a long time. Probably more than one a day.

Hi all. This is David from the Corilla team here.

Corilla is a collaborative documentation tool for software teams. It solves the problems of a core workflow for writing, managing and publishing software documentation.

We're currently in the process of preparing version two of Corilla, so I thought I'd take some time to get some community feedback.

We do this by offering a hosted Markdown editor, saving to an internal repository of topics that are accessed by a novel "collections" mode. This lets you collect groups of topics in dynamic folders but tag/context/theme (the missing feature from Evernote or Google Docs), and publish as private internal or public HTML exports in seconds.

There's a whole host of workflow enhancements for technical writers, developer advocates, dev docs, etc. One I enjoy most days is the screenshot workflow - just copy and paste an image and Corilla takes care of the back end hustle (this used to be a mammoth task at Red Hat, now just as simple as copypasta directly into the UI and directly into a version controlled repo).

We also recently announced free docs hosting [0], so the full workflow from "as many writers on the same doc as you want" to "published to hosted docs service" in a few clicks. Again - I wish I had this at Red Hat.

The intention isn't to replace static docs or the "docs as code" movement, but to solve the problem we faced at Red Hat in enabling non-technical teams to... just write.

We're in use in over 85 countries now and starting work on a new version based on our incredible community feedback. Would love to hear your thoughts.

More addictive than cigarettes....sorry but that isn't true. There is a lot more in cigarettes to addict a person.
> The MacOS ecosystem is both beautiful and deeply troubled.

So, shifting it to ARM and letting universal apps in the iOS App store now run on macOS in addition to iPad opens up the mac to a metric fuckton of developers that are happy to make cross-platform apps, since the iOS app store is SO lucrative.

Apple showed, with the iPad which was a totally new product category, that the sheer number of iOS developers could push the iPad from a platform with zero apps to the best tablet in the world (with an incredible app ecosystem) and universal apps who's UI adapt to the screen they're made for.
Agree 100%.

It's so easy to refactor Go and adding codegen on top is a piece of cake.

Like anything, it can be overused- but it's far better than reflect & co.

I'm glad to hear someone else shares my thoughts on SQL... there are things that are hard to express in ORM-speak but for the basic CRUD operations I much prefer writing code to make the SQL instead of spending time writing the same SQL templates over and over.
The key is moderation. 1 mg of nicotine can provide really positive benefits, making it a nootropic with a decent risk profile. Granted, the downsides are addiction and temporary downregulation of dopamine receptors. A spray or lozenge is better than vaping though, mainly because we don’t know the long term effects of inhaling chemicals like propelyne glycol, for instance.
I'm an optimistic pessimist in a realist's body.

That is to say, I agree, it was obvious for a long time and information asymmetry has always been a tool of survival, advantage, control, etc. and not just in humans.

However, having lived through and been a tiny part of the "data revolution", and having seen some of the bad parts personally, as well as what we could do with data if everything was done in the open with good, clear intent and permission... that part of it still makes me sad.

I mean, the way the human race is going in general makes me sad, so yeah, perhaps I should not be surprised to see reality affect this area.

But, I'm still optimistic that some of us really are doing good and honest work with data and that there is still much more to be done.

2. pays very well

This happens when the person is not calm/tranquil enough to handle the realization of no self (emptiness).
One should also develop tranquility / calmness by doing samatha meditation (like anapana).
With having developed tranquility the realization of no-self and emptiness are easier to handle.
This is the (Republican) justification for the corporate tax breaks though.

The theory is that:

Companies with international operations didn't repatriate funds because the U.S. because the U.S. was not competitive. Now it is.

It's worth noting this is not limited to Tech companies, XOM paid nearly 0% for decades, and, based on the returns that we have seen, we believe that Trump's family business may have paid 0% taxes for > a decade as well (because it had a deductible loss).
Apples/oranges.. usually there's only a few people in a messaging group.
does the term "stealing" really apply here?
I don't understand exactly what you're afraid of. I often prepare the food I eat in a contraption of "heated metal alloys". We know perfectly well how to make such things safe.
This is the first thing that occurred to me after browsing the cars available in my area. Nearly all of them look like they are listed by boutique / independent used car dealers (like the one I drive by every day: http://imgur.com/J3yi9qL.png ).

This is interesting given that...

Title 13 California Code of Regulations, section 260.02 states:
(B) Former taxicabs, rental vehicles, publicly owned vehicles, insurance salvage vehicles and revived salvage vehicles shall be clearly identified as such if the previous status is known to the seller.

If the used car lot owner is renting-out his cars on Turo, it seems like they are required to disclosed this to potential buyers. I highly doubt this is happening.
Another alternative to circles is to create groups of topics for yourself, and have people self-assign to the topics they are interested in.

So rather than creating and putting people into a “Summer Trip 2018” group, you’d create a “Summmer Trip 2018” topic that you share things to, and your friends would subscribe if interested. If you frequently post about food, you could create a food topic, and people would subscribe if interested.

The whole point of Asimov's three rules of robotics was to discuss how they make no sense in the real world, as the problem domain is too hard to be reduced like that.
For instance, Firefox for iOS's settings screen indicates it offers some sort of "tracking protection" in Incognito Mode by default. I remember reading about how this works on the desktop[1], but I've not had a chance to understand how well this is implemented on iOS.

Still, it's clear Chrome could offer an adblocker if they wanted to.

That's cool, but oof, that price. I think one of those cheap $200 (just over) laptops you can get on Amazon with USB tethering to my phone would be my choice. Maybe a cheap fabric sleeve case to go with it. Even if I lost one, I could completely replace it and still be under the cost of this setup, and while a small laptop/netbook, it's still very usable. I bought 5 to play with for $DAYJOB the other month, and besides being a pain to get the big windows 10 update on because of low free disk space, they work great.
That's fair. Though I wonder how many people buy computers on ebay as opposed to dell.com or amazon.com or an actual brick-and-mortar store.

That said, I suspect most people over the age of 35 or so can't read text at "normal" size on a 1080p 12inch screen, so if they want a 12 inch screen they have to either scale up their text or drop the resolution. And I believe the reported resolution in the Firefox telemetry is the one the OS thinks it's using, not the one the hardware has.
Not collecting data is cheap and easy!
From what we've seen, the problem that Think, Check, Submit adresses is not necessarily a huge problem in countries that has a strong academic tradition. However, once you start looking at places where academia is just emerging, the difference can be huge.

Also, it's absolutely worth noting, like you point out, that different fields have different processes for accomplishing the same thing. It seems that younger academic fields are a bit more independent of the traditional structures. I hear that in Computer Science, conferences carry more importance than they do in some other fields, for example.

In other fields, there's a lot of inertia to deal with.
Exceed.ai #1 conversation automation just added a scheduling assistance
Even the Blackberry Playbook supported a mouse, really surprising that iOS doesn't.
Spot on. There's a huge potential for optimization in the entire field, but also an amount of inertia rarely seen elsewhere.
