It is an apt title.
I was investigating using the binary log for another project a few years ago, but came to the conclusion that it's too hard to work with ... I don't remember any details though, maybe someone can fill me in ?
The question is just how many have access and aren't bragging about it.
It turns out that the apex for me now works only by accident, because I temporarily changed my custom domain to the apex form. This certificate will not get renewed, however. Only the domain that is active gets a certificate.

That means that with https enabled it is no longer pssible to have the apex and www form of a custom domain work simultaneously at a GitHub page! One needs to decide for one or the other.

As a workaround it was suggested to me to create a CNAME record from www to apex at the domain hoster. This, however, will not work for those of us who want to have it the other way around, that is, the apex pointing to the www form of the domain.

I was told that GitHub might consider other solutions in the future.
Amazed nobody commented on this. I know there is a lot of information but from technical point of view imho it is impossible to comply fully. Moreover I actually believe it creates more not less security risks. I reduced caching expiration time within the days to remove limit and for archives I listed up the most important ones in the executing rights procedure with feedback to customer for feedback about other urls they are concerned with. Even though lawfully this information is classified differently.
Remember the guys who had it easy learning at university?
Imagine you are one of them- good at using existing rules, good at ingesting and reusing existing knowledge.
But deep down know you are unable to recombine, think outside the box or just experiment childishly - to truly innovate - then those tinkerers poking the unknown could render you a obsolete dinosaur any day.

Which explains while there is always a caste of "professionals" who for the sake of "security"(job) - defend against the relentless wave of people who unleashed could undo there little safe space in life. To be fair- most of them have familys, so they are not doing that for greed- but because out of vulnerability.
At least now, Ford has a very healthy international business where they will continue to sell what we would refer to as saloons and hatchbacks. This means that should they ever wish to start selling sedans in the US again, there is a much lower barrier to doing that.
I think he meant acquisition.
We have some people working remote and it´s difficult to include them. But we skype with them for face-to-face meetings and at the beginning, everyone is saying something about himself. I would also recommend communicating via Chat like Slack or something similar. If there is an upcoming team event I would also consider to send them an invitation regardless if they are able to come but they might feel more like they are welcome. We also give them a briefing with some research tasks to get to know the company and the new job. Afterwards, the team leader will get in touch with them, explain everything and help them settle down into the team.

For collaboration, task management and project management we use our own tool Zenkit (https://zenkit.com). It´s easy to get started because you can use different views. If you used another tool, it´s more likely that you want to use the same view in Zenkit to get started.
Not OP but I’m familiar with the topic and run similar tooling on large clusters. By pause he probably means prevent it from starting on more databases and let whatever is inflight finish.
For the second point, correct, your application needs to handle both schemas during transition. When that’s done, you can rip out the unneeded logic from your application.
It isn’t backed up unless you opt-in for iCloud backup (which is largely encouraged) or perform a regular manual backup using iTunes.

This is largely similar for MacOS with Time-Machine backup (largely encouraged) or iCloud backup (still recent and for now advertised as secondary backup) or a full disk dump by any software you deem appropriate.

I both case the iCloud back-up seems to be the backup method Apple want to promote moving forward. And while I was very reticent for a while, this ultimately is a good move on their part IMHO (tho I’ll personally never stop full disk physical backup). Yes it’s pricy but keeping external hard-drive to date with tech also have a cost beyond initial buying cost (FW->USB2->USB-C HD->SSD) also it’s off site wich need some discipline if you do it yourself. For most users paying a monthly fee to have you mind worry free will be a blessing.
IMO the fix is for our industry as a whole to stop reinventing the wheel with yet-another-incompatible-alternative.

My personal imposter syndrome feelings are almost always related to either a) not knowing the "replacement" to an existing technology I am already familiar with (in almost all cases it's two steps forward one step back anyway), or b) not using a technology for a somewhat extended period of time, then coming back to it and realising that the landscape and ecosystem has completely shifted from underneath me.

The latter has hit me most hard lately in iOS development with the move to Swift (and then v2, v3), deprecation of NS*, autolayouts, APNS' http2 etc etc, and in JavaScript development.

We have far too many technologies that have established niches that all accomplish largely the same goals, but aren't transferrable. These days, boosting the toolchain for these technologies is a big feature too, which increases the differences between ecosystems. They require sometimes hundreds of hours of learning to become competent in, even for an expert in another similar technology.

It's some sort of crazy arms race that we don't seem to want to stop...
But isn't Amazon risking that Souq itself might get banned in these countries if they allow this to happen? Or am I understanding it wrong?
Yeah it's solid and easy to setup by using cloud functions on firestore events.

Querying on Firestore is really limited though and quite surprising really. They even have geopoint data types but you can't query on them.

I'm sure they'll add a lot more soon but Algolia has been great for filling in those gaps and adding robust search.
Imagine you had to harvest your own food, build your own shelter and manufacture your own clothes... you would not have time to be in Hacker News.

Then, if everyone had to do it, the technology to make computers and HN possible would not exist.

Our society is what it is because of specialized roles.

Then, whenever everyone competes against each other, a group of people takes advantage and ends up prevailing against them all.

>Materialism is overrated. Stuff breaks.

I get very attached to computers and monitors.
Yeah, that was kind of my point :/
Yeah, that ressonates with my thinking as well: it's around 30 for engineers at least cause it takes a couple of years to get your head around the business and then another couple of years to acquire the expertise.
Currently, PIM(Processing In Memory) has no reasonable programming model. Hardware people don't seem to understand that without programming model, hardware capability will remain unused. As long as this is not solved, PIM will continue to fail.

The most reasonable one I have seen is Ambit from Microsoft Research. Ambit looks nice for its proposed workloads, but it is still unclear how it can be extended to more general computation.

Apple has bonds that pay 3.85% that mature in 2043.

They're currently trading at about 95 cents on the dollar, for an effective yield of 4.05%.

There's nearly zero risk that Apple will default. Their bonds sell at a discount because market interest rates have increased since the bonds were issued, making them worth less.

Note that Tesla's bonds yield almost a full percentage point more than Apple's bonds, which reflects Tesla's higher probability of default.

But if investors were really worried about default, they'd demand a lot more than an extra 1%.

The process through which a typical job posting is created is seriously broken in most organizations.
I agree on the global variables. At least you can define functions in blocks of the same notebook file.

e.g.

[1] a = 2
[2] def square(x):
return a 2
print square(a)
> 4

[3] b = 5
print square(b)
> 25

This is something that you can't do in MATLAB, which I still use primarily. In MATLAB you have to create a new file for each function. Which nulls the readability of the script (notebook) when you publish it, because the source of the functions is not included. So, if I write a MATLAB notebook that I want to publish and share, I end up avoiding to create functions for as long as possible and instead use copy paste ...

Currently, some of the main thing that keeps me with MATLAB regardless is:
a) It feels more responsive, probably because its a native app and not running in the browser.
b) I don't like to work in the browser. Its distracting.
c) I like the profiler, debugger and workspace (constant visual inspection of global variables in a separate window) of MATLAB which comes right out of the box. For python/Jupyter I have to set this up manually.

Note: MATLAB now has an 'interactive script' function that is similar to Jupyter, but it is so slow for > 100 loc, that it's completely useless. Even the Mathworks developers admit this. Instead I use %% to seperate my MATLAB scripts into executable blocks (ctrl + enter) and then use the 'publish' function to create a LaTex file which I can then compile to pdf. This creates vector based math formulas and figures (which 'publish to html / pdf' doesn't).

Having been pressured to install GTA V onto my PS4 so I could play online with friend (it's really not my preferred type of game), I was simply blown away by the environment. Nothing else on the PS4 comes close, as far as seamless expansiveness goes.

To be honest, it's so immersive that in my opinion, GTA VI (or VII) should definitely support VR when they are released.
Good point, I had forgotten VW owned so much.
Maybe not totally irrelevant, but it's in most cases not a factor compared to build times.

For tests, yes.

I can't fathom what Mozilla does for thousands of Python invocations during build. Maybe it's test runs as well?
Doubling the memory allocation for a lambda task also doubles the CPU allocation. It's possible it could go much faster than this.

The only time that sort of thing makes sense to me is for very high level positions, and then at the level of achieving a mutual vision for the direction of that department (or even the whole company for a C level hire).

For lower levels such work should be compensated, the best solution there is to do some actual work, get paid for it and then the company can make up its collective mind if they want to hire the candidate or not.
Certain mobile ISPs are advertising this as a feature in the UK.
Go offers faster performance with code that is up to 50% longer - with the commensurate added maintenance burden.

And, go is still very slow compared to C, C++ or Rust.

Since performance is usually a power law distribution (99% of the performance gains are made in 1% of the code), it's frequently more effective - in terms of speed and maintenance burden - to code up hot paths in a language like C, C++ or Rust and keep python.
Whatever happened to that tech that Micron was working on? Automata processors or something.
Frontend work is brutal. It's as fickle as the fashion industry, only it doesn't have quarterly updates but roughly every second Monday.
I think imposter syndrome can come from 'fronting', trying to always appear perfect, always have all the answers, etc. which leads to ever-increasing fear that people will 'find you out'.

Be humble and honest. Don't present yourself as "the expert". Ask questions. Listen to people. Say "I don't know" if you don't know. You'll be surprised how often the response is "me neither!"

Oh, of course. I was thinking of Let's Encrypt's DNS-based authentication since that's the only thing I use nowadays (though of course Github isn't using that). Ignore me.
For decentralized payment systems, it's obviously essential.

But there is no general answer. It depends on the circumstances.
As nice as an HSTS preload list is, using .app and .dev for this is infuriating.

Thanks for wasting about 6 hours of my time a few months ago by forcing me to change all my non-https local DNS entries to something other than .app and .dev, and then dealing with various flow on repercussions.

Really helpful that was. Especially the latter. How many decades of man hours are you wasting from this I wonder...

If you think that Bitcoin transactions are anonymous then you are grossly mistaken. All transactions are part of PUBLIC ledger and are there to stay forever. The illusion of anonimity comes from thr fact that you don’t need an ID to create a Bitcoin wallet, but still it’s possible to trace your transactions back to you.

An 8 hour onsite interview costs me 8 hours and it costs the company 8 hours, so they're not likely to bother with it unless they think I'm in with a good enough chance to be worth the investment.

A 5 hour homework assignment costs the company nearly nothing, but it still costs me 5 hours. This means the company has no incentive not to waste my time.

There is no reason you couldn't use the example QML above in place of JSX and still receive the same benefits. It would still be `View = fn(state)`; it's just a different syntax for specifying `fn`.

Your recollection is faulty; RMS was an absolute pleasure to work with. Fast, clean and efficient, and concurrent access was pain-free too. RMS supported streams as well as records.

Yeah, I used matplotlib like that for years (at times all day every day), but the notebook interface makes it much easier to keep track of lots of figures and where they actually came from, so I switched to that 4-5 years ago. The figures are also much more lasting, as they save in the notebook right next to the code, so it's a lot easier to go back and make sense of old work, especially with markdown cells documenting things right there too.

I think even saving state by dumping the whole process is unfeasible. What happens if some dependency gets upgraded, e.g. for a critical security hole? The problems seem unavoidable, so I think we're stuck.

They invested in and are partnering with Here for maps and navigation. Having worked there, providing global maps and navigation is a very non trivial thing to pull off; which is why there are only handful of companies doing their own maps. It took Apple and Google many years to stop depending on third party maps that they were licensing from Teleatlas (now owned by Tom Tom) and Navteq (now part of Here), which were at the time the only suppliers of maps and navigation world wide. Apple is still in the process of shifting away from Tom Tom I think. Ironically both got more serious about doing their own maps after Nokia bought Navteq.

So, Amazon did the smart thing and simply partnered instead of reinventing that wheel so they could have a maps solution for their Android fork and not depend on Google Maps while still implementing the relevant APIs for app compatibility. Here is in fact using AWS so that ticks that box ...

OSM is nice but entrenched in licensing issues that are preventing adoption by big corporations. That's the reason that you'll be hard pressed to find anything but niche products for navigation based on OSM. It's a great solution if you are not mixing your own data sources with what OSM provides but that is not an option for most commercial players and OSM licensing is all about preventing exactly that. Microsoft had OSM maps for a while on Bing but they couldn't do any fancy features based on their own data on top of it so it got scrapped.
Considering your "Go to curb.app" solution, to be brutally honest I think at least 50% of the world has no idea what the difference between "Go to curb.app" and "Download the Curb app" is.

If historians haven't been putting this archive to good use, it's certainly not because of a simple lack of scans, and the Vatican is likely to not give easy access to the scans for mostly the same reasons they keep people out of their archives.

Certainly buying a plane ticket to Rome isn't the end of the world, so historians put the archive to as good use as they can. But they, the people long trained to make use of delicate ancient document, are dismissed as some sort of backwards tribe that are not fit to be labelled "modern scholars".
What fresh hell is this transition tool? It goes through a few weird, semi/non-styled authentication pages on a variety of domains (e.g. withgoogle.com). It uses non-standard animations that look broken. The whole things is a disaster that is clearly not finished.

No, on the database itself. I used "child side" for lack of better terminology. Every foreign key has two edges: the "parent" table and the "child" table. Rows in the "child" table depend on existence of matching rows in the "parent" table.

It should be feasible to run `gh-ost` to ALTER a table that only has "child"-side constraints. It will be impossible to run `gh-ost` to ALTER a table that has "parent" side constraints.

Hope this clarifies.
