This is what I've been using, works great but you have to use quite a bit of it and get a large chunk of it. You can re-use it, though. You don't have to get a new piece every time you clean the grill.
There's an interesting point in comparing to old companies, mainly that they were actually ridiculously big: https://www.fool.com/investing/general/2012/08/22/a-history-...
Seriously you can clean them the same way you clean any other greasy cooking utensil. Those green plastic scrubbers (like scotch guard) work fine.

I have a small bbq and I just take the grills off and put them in the dishwasher! That has a non-stick coating so I wouldn’t want to use a wire brush anyway. The large bbq just gets a hand wash.
Mr Musk has strategic vision, but not necessarily engineering vision. Which is fine, engineering is a huge field.

Bear in mind that the first time one of his staff proposed verticals landing rocket stages, he laughed.
I use a piece of wood to scrape the grill, once is hot (it makes it easier). You may finish with some old newspaper.
> Are you a police officer? Trial attorney? Inspector General? You almost certainly should not be on social media, or exclusively posting baby pictures and acting within defined guidelines from your employer.

An agent from the local mid-size-city FBI office spoke at an "information security for regular people" event at my university. He said he had a Facebook profile, but pretty much all the information on it was false.
To me, this is very different than someone who has graduated with a CS degree or self-taught with a portfolio of open source contributions/personal projects.

An understanding of basic concepts obtained in the ways described above is very different from 0 experience. And on paper to a recruiter, what I've listed above counts as 0 real-world business experience.

edit: it is nice to hear this situation worked out for you though!
If at some point, you end up being CEO but have delegated all the real work, you are a waste of space. There are roles like Chairman for people who aren't essential to day-to-day leadership.
There's a huge difference in no work experience and no experience at all.

Hiring college grads without a lot of real world experience gives you the opportunity to mentor and train in good methodologies that I find older developers will refuse to implement without incessant fighting.

It is more work initially but the long run payoff has been fantastic in my experience. When you manage based on yearly expectations that are attainable life is so much more enjoyable.

The biggest key is management and upper management buy-in. Sadly that's exponentially more difficult to get when most places see IT as a sunk-cost instead of an opportunity to deliver more efficient workflows internally and externally.

I'm on the fence about working with developers that don't have college degrees. The gaps in their skill-set frequently causes issues no matter how much experience they've had.
My friend had AOL in the UK. Used to frequent their chatrooms.

Not sure if they were an ISP or something but I do remember their presence in British internet access.
If you look at how Facebook was founded it's clear core values and ethics were not a priority from the beginning.
Depends what you mean by greater good. Offshoring is pretty good for Western managers. No appreciable benefits for Western shareholders or customers, and big negatives for Western workers.

What about the offshore workers? They might benefit for a short time until an even cheaper location opens up, that’s all. Once the jobs are mobile, they will keep moving.

Far better to create indigenous industries.
GDPR interests US hackers too. I'm currently working on a SAAS that helps companies manage their data privacy, with GDPR being the main driver. I can't say much about our approach just yet as we're in stealth mode still, but imho the approach should be centered around awareness of what, where, and how data is stored. That's the very first step.
Yes, I can say that with certainty. Anything a credit card company will do when they have access to aggregate data is done to benefit the credit card company, not the customers. And anything healthcare providers can do when it comes to making diagnoses is either on an individual basis, in which case access to my social media data would not matter or it is part of a study in which case there should be proper controls.

If you wish to argue that there are direct benefits to consumers from either giving credit card companies or health care providers access to your social media data then the the onus is on you to prove this.
The simplest stack for me is:

Frontend - Plain HTML/CSS/JS

Backend - Node, Express with Nunjucks for templating

If I want to get a bit fancy:

Frontend - Vue, Bootstrap4

Backend - Node, Express, Nunjucks

DB - SQLite3 using Sequelize as ORM

Surprisingly, you can accomplish lot of stuff with the second setup.

If im going to deploy to production:

Provider - Either small DO droplet ($5.00) or tiny AWS (free)

Webserver - nginx as reverse proxy for node (free)

Firewall - UFW (free)

Email - mailgun (free)

Domain - namecheap (depends on domain name. $10.00/yr more or less)

For a basic setup you wont need any scaling setup (CDN, load-balancer and whatnot) which like what, 99% of the time?
Interesting. It only strikes me as odd that neither blog linked on that site mentions it, and the IP address won´t resolve on any DNS server around. What gives?
This llvm should have newgvn which allows better auto vectorization. I'm curious to see if panic=abort allows some of the nbody implementations at benchmark game to autovec. Might not have to wait on SIMD to beat c++. The fastest nobody entry is FORTRAN and it has no intrinsics, just autovec.
I usually burn off the grill and will scrub it clean using Aluminum foil.
Growing forests would be incredible, it’d be like rain forest eventually right? It would be very strange to see a substantially green country in the Middle East.
I'm in the UK and know no one who would call McDonalds or Burger King a restaurant.

I wouldn't call TGIFriday a restaurant either.
Sorry but I just noticed this reply. I don't want to claim that IBM is "inflating" their core count, nor the inverse. Rather that what passes for what we might think of as a "core" based on the ways software vendors describe things isn't directly transferable to what IBM has actually built.

IBM has extremely flexible hardware which, using IBM's hypervisor, can be configured on the fly to present itself in a number of different ways. For example: few powerful compute units, many medium compute units, or very many less capable compute units.

So right up front the idea (which a lot of people might assume without really thinking about) that a given chip has a fixed number of "cores" doesn't really hold true. More to the point the next question that presents itself "what makes up for a core and what determines how many a given processor has" is best answered with "it depends" (at least as far as IBM Power goes).

One of the main reasons this matters is that all sorts of businesses use the idea of "cores" as a fixed entity as part of their pricing structures... and now it's all muddied.
I’ve been using a wooden scraper like this for the last few years and it has worked well:

"International Edition" generally means printed significantly more cheaply, and not intended for sale within "rich countries"; generally countries where they can realistically push the expensive version. International Editions often say on them "Not for sale in the US" or some such, depending on the publisher; they sell in poorer countries at a lower price.

The quality is often, in my experience, significantly lower; the paper is thinner, the ink cheaper, sometimes the alignment of the printing is a little off. Colour plates are missing or decoloured, hardbacks become softbacks, and so on. But, the words are the same, and sometimes the International Edition is actually pretty reasonable quality. I've got some that are clearly pretty shoddy, and some that you wouldn't actually know were Internationals. I suspect that sometimes publishers don't reprint it cheaply; they just stamp some of them "International Edition, not for sale in countries <x y z>" on it and ship them abroad to sell, much as some semiconductor manufacturers' cheaper chips actually come off the same line as the expensive ones, and then get tweaked (or even just labelled down). A sale is a sale.
What's so special about the UK, Germany and France that doesn't hold for the other 25 member states of the EU?
I would add one point: Is there a chance you might ever be one of those things, or are friends with or related to one of them? If so, no social media.
I mean, why not call my parent my parent instead of my mom or dad if my mom or dad don’t identify as cis? “This is my parent, Alex” is reasonable.
And so they should when modern is not as efficient as the alternative.
Hemp is a great rotation crop that adds nitrogen back into the soil. And unlike alfalfa, hemp can get some money.
This is hardly a silver lining. 29mm pales in comparison to the amount of money they have ponzi'd out of the common investor who has bought into this.
Yeah soap isn't really an option if you have a real barbeque with a well seasoned cast iron grill.
Steel wool is safer, no doubt, but this shouldn't really be anything more than a freak occurrence if you clean a grill properly. The wire brush is just the first step to remove the coarse stuff. Soap, water, and some kind of fine abrasive pad or scrubbing cleaner should remove these barbs. I guess at some restaurants, they're more concerned about speed and don't take the care...
Modern Audi production is an interesting example of horizontal integration which might not map cleanly to Tesla.

Chassis, drivetrains and minor parts-bin components are developed group-wide by VAG. Putting them together in the desired pattern and adding premium components and materials is what makes an Audi.

All Audi A, Q and TT models are examples of this. They are built in shared plants with other VAG models which use the same platform. Even the R8 has a shared platform.

In contrast AFAIK Tesla does everything bespoke without the advantages of volume and standardisation.
"No way" short of sensible government regulation.

Too bad regulation is bad for business or we could all enjoy our food without fear of wire bristles.

Not sure why an honest question is getting downvotes.

1) We do not yet have any reason to believe there are more than 3 dimensions plus time [1]
2) It depends on what you mean by "visible". Take a look at this picture full screen: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter#/media/File:Gravit...

That is an image of dark matter bending the light from distant galaxies - take note of the circularly shaped bent galaxies radiating around the middle. This effect is called "gravitational lensing", and it is why we know that there actually is some matter in this picture. We also know that it is invisible because otherwise the "dark matter" would be blocking view of the galaxies you're looking at.

3) I highly recommend reading the summary on the Wikipedia article on dark matter [2]. The whole article is really long, but the summary paragraphs at the top give a great high-level explanation of "what we know" about dark matter.

A wooden paddle scraper works well. After a couple uses on a hot grill the wood burns in grooves that fit the grate perfectly.
Foil. Ball it up a bit, rub it on grates, done.
Just don't use a scotchbrite on a hot grill.
This may sound stupid but I am curious what would be the effect on facial recognition. Could a person place a sticker on a hat or side of the face, and would that keep confuse the software? or even on the plate of your car?
But not enough subsidy that they are remotely affordable, hence the outrageous bills foisted upon individuals.
Yet you cite a correlation as proof of causation?
How about reading their resume and cover letter? Looking at a github link, checking out their LinkedIn. You know, actually do YOUR job rather than wasting every single applicants time. Maybe good engineers are self unselecting because your assembly line screening process turned them off.

Look at the hiring process at Apple or Google for examples of how to do it well. Apply; respond to applications with a request for a phone screen or a rejection letter. Do the phone screen. Those that pass, do a technical interview via FaceTime, then those that pass that, send them to the final round. If you reject anyone during the process, notify them immediately.

Be respectful to the candidates and you will end up with better hires. Don’t treat them like you are doing them a favor: you aren’t.
Interesting how quickly we went from “weather modification is a conspiracy theory” to reporting about it on an increasingly regular basis.
Apologies for a post that s pretty much 100% anecdotal...

This article rings true to me.

My wife ran into this after college only for her industry (biomedical engineering) it is 5 years for "entry level" and they didn't even count her paid college jobs even though they were relevant experience.

Robotics is even worse. Unless you've been building robots as a hobby for the last 5-10 years (which is a VERY expensive hobby btw) it doesn't matter how much other engineering or programming experience you have, they won't take you.

I got lucky with the opposite. I started paid programming in high school and employers counted my high school and college jobs as experience and I had three competing mid-level offers at graduation. So I skipped entry level entirely. And this was in 2007 right before the recession really kicked in so companies were already starting to hold back on hiring.

On the flip side, an actual entry level coder we just hired expects to be working on fun new R&D stuff even though he has 0 experience and I thought we set expectations during the interview. We have him working on bug fixing and client change orders (he will eventually get to R&D but someone needs to fix the bugs, we can't all work on just the "fun" stuff).

Please stop using clickbaity titles, first line that I saw in the post "I’ve tested seventy VPN providers and 16 of them leaks users’ IPs via WebRTC"

So, more appropriate title would have been "23% of VPN providers leak user IP" :)
Indeed. Intellectual curiosity?
For both of those ‘niche’ use cases, paper and cloth, hemp was the dominant material used for many centuries prior to the last century.
>That being said, I would love to witness a super-rich person throw a one-time insanely large lump sum of money at some problem. Like, "Here's 50 billion dollars. Free mammograms to anyone on the planet until the money runs out."

I feel like that's a dangerous plan. The Gates Foundation invests a lot of time and energy into making sure its money is well-spent and effective. Throwing a "one-time insanely large lump sum of money" at a problem sounds like a recipe for graft and embezzlement on a colossal scale.

The toughest problems are the ones that resist throw-money-at-it solutions. You can't just give money to poor people; you have to do it in a way that coincides with guaranteeing they understand how to use it to escape poverty, guaranteeing it won't be stolen by a corrupt regime, etc. etc. etc.
> most webpages are able to reach an audience far larger and far more disperse than what could be served by any library or printing press

Most webpages don’t have the reach of a mid-sized city newspaper in the 20th century. A few approach the reach of a major city newspaper, wire service like AP or Reuters, or radio/TV network – think about what percentage of the world could hear the BBC! Facebook or Google have those numbers but the vast majority of websites have far fewer visitors and less revenue per reader.

What’s different is that it’s much cheaper. You couldn’t run a printing faculty with a couple of people and laptops but a ton of websites do pull that off.

> The Lytro embeds, unlike physical media (negatives/photos that get lost) could still be revived

This leaves out a lot: if you have physical media, the risk is distributed and has been very well understood for centuries. If my house burns down, you don’t lose your family papers & photos. Important works are widely distributed and there’s rarely a single event which destroys all of them – even things like the Cultural Revolution didn’t manage 100% suppression.

Digital works are easier to make exact copies of but generally worse on every other aspect. In the case of a hosted service like Lytro, the complex proprietary stack is a huge risk but so is something as simple as archiving all of the data – if they’re doing any sort of on-demand loading you run the risk of only downloading the fraction of the data which displays initially without user interaction, and if they’re doing any sort of browser detection or rate-limiting you also have to be careful to deal with those. The web archiving community has years of experience with these kind of issues but it’s expensive and makes it hard for most people to archive their personal data.
I have been using a wooden one for the last year. It's about 18" x 5" x 1/2", has a oar-like handle carved in one end, and a taper in the other. I think it's made of cedar. It starts to get groves from the grill as you use it, but even without those it is effective, you just have to angle it to get stuff off the sides of each rung/wire (whatever those are called). Compared to a bristled brush it usually only takes one pass.
Hello, and welcome to DNS
Why do they need to make money?
I am not a historian of any kind.

If we have accounts of massive villages criss crossing the Amazon from early Spanish explorers then why is the article saying we thought it was empty? We’re they not believed? Didn’t the Spanish return to the same place with conquistadors later to fill up all those gold ships? Even if everyone died of disease in between Spanish forays wouldn’t the second one have noted all the abandoned villages creating new folklore like the single abandoned Roanoke?
I mean just having a Facebook login on your own website can be useful. I believe even that qualifies as a Facebook app.
Well, I hope AVIC do some serious investigation on this, because there is another station (Tiangong-2) up there, it could be really bad if it had the same problem cause such defunct.

In fact, I also hope they go one step further, publish the result of their investigation and explain it to the public.

As a person who grew up watching a lot's of (pirated) Discovery shows (on provincial TV channel, LOL), I always found people who trying to research something in order to discover the truth are fascinating and made me a big fan of science (despite I did really bad at school).

If scientists in China did figured out and learned what went wrong, they may as well notify the public, it could be very educational maybe even inspiring.
But people use them to remove firey fat while grilling. I've done that. Obviously, bad idea.
It can be done from the command-line (https://www.janestreet.com/tech-talks/code-review/); many people just find the Emacs integration nicer. But there are plenty of vim users who use the command-line instead.
The whole "don't use soap on cast iron" thing is completely overblown, and comes from the old days of strong lye soap.

It's perfectly ok to use modern soap on cast iron. If that washes off the seasoning, it didn't deserve to be on there anyway.
The paper considers the class of MOND theories that made a precise prediction of deltaV = 20 km/s for this galaxy. I guess I am referring to only those.
Very much so, yes. They’re not completely unaware of the need for PR though, so you’re unlikely to be hassled. Unlikely, but I for one wouldn’t take the chance. I realize that sentiment around this issue is massively polarized, but the reality is complex. Nobody likes to talk about what persona non grata Palestinians are in other Arab nations, and the degree to which their current circumstances are the result of that. The reasoning for that policy of containment by Arab nations ranges from political expediency, through racism, into genuine fear. It’s worth understanding the rationale for the whole spectrum before making a trip to Gaza.

It’s not as simple as people on either extreme of the issue would have you believe.
Unusual in the sense that it has not been practiced for hundreds of years and proven out. The short-term studies typically done with new practices are annoyingly inconsistent with reality. Time and lots of exposure are needed.

There’s lies, there’s damned lies, and then there’s studies. Monsanto’s maize study was only done for 90 days and then got approved. When the same study was replicated for two years, significant health issues were discovered.[1]

And by the way, Monsanto was the only one required to confirm that the study showed positive results. Safety testing is not done by the FDA, only required by the company, who may or may not be telling the truth about the results.[2]

Lies, damned lies, and studies.

So the question remains: Why should I if I were farming have to spend a lot of time, effort, and money to prove what I am not doing? Shouldn't it be the other way 'round?

I haven't been to Gaza for a few years, I think they were still stamping passports at Erez even after they stopped stamping at TLV.

Were they still stamping at Erez in 2016?
Common sense does not extend to all.
What kind of nonstick coating survives the high temperatures present in a grill?
The onus isn't on me to prove anything. The OP was against harvesting of data in all forms, not just social media.

That means no credit, insurance, or health related data collection of any kind at all.

What do you think of that?
The galaxy in the article is a clear anomaly, which by definition puts it outside of our expected range. We have observed millions of galaxies and they all have the same general density, so it is genuinely surprising to see one that is so widely dispersed.
I've read that's a common myth, that a little soapy water for a few minutes is going to do nothing to a polymerized fat coating that was seared into the pitted surface of cast iron under high heat, but even if you were concerned about it, a brief re-seasoning afterward would be more than enough to restore any stripping.

On another note, what would have happened if humanity didn’t do a big disease swap back in the 1500’s. Could a flotilla of South American ships have showed up in Italy in the 1700’s and caused massive death across the Old World?
