If we can assign victimhood to the shareholders then surely we can assign blame as well? Seems like you’re just slightly moving the pointers with no actual consequence here.

People got shot and HN commenters are using it as a platform to criticize content policies of the company they work for. That is the pertinent thing here. Semantic quibbles about which specific entities count as the “victims” are not terribly relevant.

You sum it up well. If you just get static text (call stack etc) from your error logger tool, it's of almost no use as it doesn't reveal the state of the app. With modern tools that have replay capability, this changes and the debugging process is so much nicer. :)
I have definitely come across employees who acted borderline criminally irresponsibly, and had nothing to fear from management either way. Of course, not punishing that kind of behaviour is its own kind of hazardous management culture.
Last I checked reddit's reasoning for the redesign was that their current codebase was difficult to work with due to "the lack of separation of the frontend and backend code"
Thank you, I found your summary helpful and yes I will look through it.
Maybe you are only distributing your app to people in the US? Or maybe Android apps only use crypo built into the OS and done actually ship with any.
Your state constitution doesn't particularly get a say in what the US constitution means (so says the 10th amendment).
I really like The Profit and have recommended the show to others. A similar show (with way more drama) is Bar Rescue. It's becoming a trend now because Richard Rawlings of Fast 'n Loud has a new show called Garage Rehab where they turn around failing auto repair shops.

Things all these businesses in different industries have in common:

1. They don't know their numbers so they're flying blind

2. Problems with family members or employees

3. Lots of unsold inventory and sometimes plain junk tying up capital

4. Owner isn't taking a salary

I've personally worked for small businesses as well as startups that had some of these problems so they're pretty common.
There were some pretty significant improvements to the new player experience. Within a few hours you have enough skills to participate in faction warfare or other small scale pvp as a tackler.

The shock is that it's exploitable by political actors who people are opposed to. That's what's getting attention these days.
Nukes are an instrument of last resort, but you don't want to get to the point where that is your only option. And it is possible that technical advances in missile defence may blunt this advantage.

Being able to prevent friendly (and even neutral) countries from being bullied or going over to the dark side is also important because ultimately the best defence against rising autocratic forces is to ensure a broad alliance of friendly, democratic countries who are secure against interference by unfriendly regimes.

If a country like the USA can have its elections manipulated, how vulnerable might smaller democracies be?
They want a warrant for Microsofts data. The warrant comment is probably aimed at US citizens data on a third parties servers.

EFF explicitly says the Cloud Act enables:

I've had issues with early releases/preview builds of windows 10 too. Even on Microsoft hardware.

If you want a stable experience, you'll need a lts release with supported hardware. Eg for Ubuntu: 16.04 along with a Dell xps. Or red hat, debian stable or whatever.

Fortunately Ubuntu 18.04 is just around the corner.

Not saying poor hw vendor support for Linux isn't still a problem. But my parents have actually had more issues upgrading to Windows 10 (firewire drivers not working, won't be fixed by vendor or ms).

Seems to be trend that when hw doesn't work on Windows, it's "pc doesn't work/is difficult", on Mac it's "well, third party, can't expect it to work". But with Linux it's always: "Linux is crap".
Any improvement like that is from the GPU being given different kinds of circuits entirely. The raw performance difference is not very impressive. In late 2012 you'd get about 8 gigaflops per dollar. Late 2017 gets you almost double that. They're being used somewhat more effectively, but a normal non-neural-net benchmark shows a total performance improvement of... 3x.

They're doing better than CPUs but they're still falling behind Moore's law.
I had the same question as you 2 years ago. Here is the long answer http://blog.codepipes.com/containers/docker-for-java-big-pic...
Well, two responses to that:

* Is this what you actually want? Would it be proper for Google to say "we've conclusively decided that climate change is real, so from now on we will delist all climate change denial content"?

* What do you think the chances are that a newspaper editorial board would delete an article, just because you wrote them a letter saying it was false?
This is the only relevant part:

>"In a quantum-mechanical picture, light consists of photons, or packages of optical energy. The photons of the light reflected from a metal (or a dielectric mirror) are identical to the incident ones, apart from the changed propagation direction."

This doesn't explain anything about how it works quantum mechanically.
You might be interested in the book The Seventh Sense: Power, Fortune, and Survival in the Age of Networks. The author builds a thesis around the idea that one can understand the next wave of power as a network problem. He presents the loss of the Iraq war within this framework, as a failure on the part of a conventional military to adapt to the new forms of influence, communication and organization enabled by dense networks.

My company maintains a very popular blog on testing. It has helped us land mutliple clients. We get a few inbound enquiries every month - usually from really small startups and/or QA directors that are looking to quickly implement test automation. After my own personal network and past clients, my blog is the most reliable source of clients. The simplest post that resulted in a client was one we wrote on how to run a Selenium test on BrowserStack using Python. The most advanced post that generated a lead/inquiry (but I couldn't close) was one on testing a Natural Language Generator.

What we write: We mainly write to make a tester's life easier and interesting - so testing, automation, tech we use at our clients and the different tools we use to test. The one other rule of thumb is that if the engineer spent more than 2 hours Googling about a problem, they should write a post about it.

Background: I established the habit as soon as I had an employee on the bench. It took over a year and about 30 posts before we saw even a little (~1k pageviews a month) traffic. It was about 18-months of regular writing (~50 posts) before we got our first client through our blog.

Pros: The habit has been a good for both my employees as well as for my business. The posts are good references for new hires and easy to pass on to our clients too. My employees also credit writing blog posts with helping them think clearer and articulate their thoughts better. We also look smart when our clients Google for something and stumble into a solution one of our engineers wrote.

Cons: The start was a slog and demotivating. Writing is still hard and time-consuming. As we grow, it is harder to sell new employees on the habit. The articles we enjoy writing barely get any hits [1].

What matthberg said. I'm on a Mac and I use shift-cmd-V frequently (more often than cmd-V).

Unfortunately, there are a few apps that use cmd-opt-shift-V instead of cmd-shift-V. You can fix most of them using this:

https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/182970/paste-to-ma...

After that, almost everything will use cmd-shift-V. However, Microsoft Word is still broken, apparently because it uses a slightly different command that does a similar thing, "Paste and Match Formatting". Haven't found a way to fix that yet.

You're quite incorrect. The state properly has a monopoly on the retaliatory use of force (and none other) under objective laws and legal processes. But self-defense is an emergency, and there is no rational argument to claim that one may not protect oneself, one's family, or one's property against beasts or thugs. On the other hand, if you kill someone in self-defense, you had better be prepared to explain how necessary it was, in the court of law; which is exactly how things work in the USA.

If one is so depraved as to argue that self-defense is unacceptable as such, then one should be prepared to live and die as a slave to the first thug or dictator who walks by one's neighborhood or country.

Slack Promotes April Underwood to Chief Product Officer
It's how a lot of newer emoji work.

Suppose, for example, that you want the emoji "Man Facepalming Medium Skin Tone". There is no single Unicode code point for that. Instead, it uses five code points:

U+1F926 FACE PALM
U+1F3FD EMOJI MODIFIER FITZPATRICK TYPE-4
U+200D ZERO WIDTH JOINER
U+2642 MALE SIGN
U+FE0F VARIATION SELECTOR-16

The first two compose to make the "facepalm" with desired skin tone. The last two make "man". The zero-width joiner composes the first two and last two together, so that the whole sequence renders as a single emoji.

Here's a list of emoji which use the ZWJ this way:

Reading through her site and the like I see a lot of conspiracy - it's a theme - that things are far bigger than can be controlled - there is a secret and I am revealing it.

It's interesting how common that thread is in troubled people. Were there signs that could have been seen? Not many people saw her videos or site and if they did she was probably just skipped over as "the weirdo" and if someone suggested she seek help she might have seen it as part of the bigger conspiracy.

Not really going anywhere with this comment to be honest, it's just scary and I don't see any real easy solutions to this kind of situation. There are thousands of people with similar sites, similar youtube channels that will continue. They probably wont do anything horrible but maybe they will. They might seek help, they might not. It's kind of scary to me.
This explains the chemical mechanism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_pressure_additive

An important property is that when localized hot-spots appear on metal surfaces due to friction, the heat causes a chemical reaction that bonds the molecule to the metal preventing further wear. Organophosphates like ToCP do this at higher temperatures than some less toxic compounds, presumably important in jet engines. So they're not just mixing in random poisons for no reason.
What are the roles of the four non-technical employees who have complained? You mentioned elsewhere that they are submitting requests directly to this engineer--what sorts of requests?

When I've encountered and had to help solve for this sort of thing in the past, there was usually something deeper at the root of it. In one case it was the fact that people on the marketing team were not able to formulate their engineering asks to a sufficiently technical degree, or understand the ideal workflow of an engineer. So what would happen is engineers would get frustrated fielding these requests because they lacked most of the necessary information needed to build anything, and were constantly asked to support multiple significant scope changes throughout the process.

That would understandably frustrate many people. But once we identified that as one of the big issues, we were able to develop process to help address it. Things like documenting commonly asked technical specifics up front, or setting milestones and making sure everyone understood the impact of changing things helped streamline things.

Another big piece of that was having someone who could bridge that gap from a communication standpoint. That ended up being me for a lot of it, which was fun since while I am a marketer, I'm fairly technical and usually get on very well with engineers. If two people can't speak a common language, sometimes the easiest solution is to work through a third person who can translate.
That's a responsible attitude. Sadly, that attitude does not seem to be the prevailing one.

Elsewhere in the thread, quite openly: "Them cutting off a person off their income without any way of appeal caused the whole chain of events in the first place."

That is extreme, sure. But I have to work hard to not interpreted milder comments that way too. The straightforward reading is pretty much that. The youtube blaming and insinuations that youtube brought it in itself were pretty much prevalent when I commented.
Hell, our own country could probably use more tools to enable true democratic representation.

Basically - I think the point of a blog (at the beginning) is not really to be lead gen for consulting gigs. Instead, it's a place to plant your flag on the internet and say "This is what I'm an expert in".

Eventually, that may lead to consulting leads - but at least at the start, it's really just a way to establish that you know what you're talking about. Either way - if you're thinking about doing consulting, I would highly recommend it.
This article didn't demonstrate any risks involved in using 'class' in Javascript by devs familiar with other OOP languages. What exactly is the non-common feature in Javascript OOP that exists in other OOP languages and therefore poses such a risk that makes developes make "a lot of mistakes"? It's not messing around with prototypes, since those devs don't understand that any way.

Sounds like Javascript dev who is pissed because the language evolves and his prototype-hack-knowledge becomes more and more obsolete.
Yes, of course, leaders need to do that. But there are other leadership positions there. She isn't the only one.

I would assume the Chief Technical Officer is not usually primarily considered to be a people person and that other leaders would usually be the go to person for this kind of friction.

It was a question intended as food for thought about the exact dynamic of the situation.

And somewhere else in this thread, someone is suggesting to run a rolling release to get reasonably good hardware support. Which one is it?

I have a Linux machine at home and I use it regularly. Linux is great as a Unix system. It has a more modern userland than macOS. Linux is exceptionally good for development (from recent gcc/clang to profiling with perf). But why can't we just be honest: Linux and hardware is hit and miss. You need to buy the right hardware and configuration typically requires at least some terminal work and/or configuration file editing, which are both outside the realm of regular users and many gamers.

It could be argued that the 2nd amendment was put in place to ensure a means of the citizenry to overthrow the government (as an absolute check on an unjust government). Unfortunately it's now just a vestige of an older time and the 2nd amendment only serves to protect the rights of gun hobbyists.

The guns that a person are allowed to bear are nowhere near sufficient to take on the US military, and the modern arms such as encryption and freedom from surveillance are not even guaranteed by the 2nd amendment.

I don't think this is "expected" of anyone.

I thought it was kicked out of the iOS App Store for using the private APIs, after it was accepted. That is fair on its face, because those are the rules Apple set. However, the F.lux developers pleaded with Apple to open up the APIs needed to implement their software and were ignored. Then Apple copied their functionality as a built in feature of the OS. So the full story doesn’t make Apple look good.
