Too many legacy migration projects fail to account for the active-active nature of migration.
What he calls "Digital Maoism" is an excellent critique and worth the read. The loss of voice is a substantial problem; the single voice being arbitrated by a for-profit cadre is worse.

I've followed his online works off and on for a while - he had some interesting ideas about coding and adaptive computations about 10+ years ago that I'd like to see followed up on. He seems to specialize in sort of being a public critic now (above interview seems to rehash his usual points well) & advocate for paid everything & DRM.
The heart of the problem is that different people are doing different things with Python, and nobody wants to pay cognitive load for what they don't want to use.

The packagers and package tool makers of the world inherit ALL of the technical debt from ALL of the upstream software devs. They're either the liver or the colon. An upstream dev decided to not document which compiler they use during dev time? That's now your problem. A compiler maker (GNU, MSFT, etc.) decides to change how they distribute the C runtime? Congrats, now it's your packaging system's job to know how to differentiate between Windows 7 and Windows 10 running particular versions of Visual Studio.

Nobody wants a "single simple unified solution" for packaging more than the packaging tool makers and distro vendors. Believe me. But it's not going to happen until software devs become take more responsibility for what they build upstream, and how they build it.
I'll check. Thanks for the tip!
I would always bet on crappy upload. Residential internet is so garbage, it's tough for it to even sustain low latency 3Mbps upload in most areas, especially during evening hours when everyone is trying to upload. Facetiming someone with fiber vs not is like night and day versus someone sharing a tiny cable pipe with 2,000 other people.
The same goes for mining cryptocurrency.
I did something similar in college. A company paid cash for installing software that displayed ads on the bottom of your monitor. It qualified your ad viewing activity based on mouse movement.

At night I would open the software, wrap my mouse cord around an oscillating desk fan, then go to bed. Earned myself $50/month
Where did that $2k come from? While it's nice there is some way to redistribute wealth in this way, unfortunately service sector jobs don't create wealth: you can not have a city solely of repairmen and realtors.

Less skilled factory work would generate wealth, but unfortunately those are the exact jobs that left.

You're probably mostly right (I was closer to some of my clients than you'd expect from "security consultant", though). I'm just a data point.

I think there's an outsider perspective on the industry that is very invested in the notion that successful startup founders are generally chemically enhanced. I think that's false, and harmful for obvious reasons. When I ask startup people I know about it, I generally hear the same thing. But: limited visibility.

(I really don't care about adderall; I know a bunch of people with ADHD scripts, and they all seem to need it. I'm more concerned about stuff like modafanil.)
Search and command interfaces are doable (within reasonable expectations) dialogs just aren't without eye popping engineering challenges (like 100k branches hand engineered onto trees + lots of deep learning.)

Also we (science) know shockingly little about real dialogs and their challenges as far as I can find out - but I am not a linguist and am angling here fore some killer references !
They are in the same category as mobile apps in that respect, no? Both of them are "public clients" in terms of OAuth 2.0.
You generally need to talk to a tax lawyer about this, but in a nutshell:

You could owe tax to the state in which you incorporate, if they tax LLC income earned out of state. (Most states don't, but you will have a "minimum franchise tax" that you must pay regardless of LLC income for the privilege of being registered in their state.)

You generally would owe US federal income tax on the income you earn from your US customers. But, in many cases you could qualify for tax treaty benefits that reduce your US tax liability to zero. You would still need to file a US tax return, but you would not actually pay US taxes. (Your tax return would explain why you don't need to pay.)

You would generally be taxed on the income in your home country. Despite common belief, almost all countries tax the worldwide income of citizens residing in their country. (Territorial taxation is generally reserved for corporations and expatriates.)
Because I dislike the idea of insurance companies nosing in on my private life and telling me how to spend my time. I'm sure someone will object that participation is voluntary, but I expect it to go along the familiar voluntary with perks -> penalties if not participating -> outright mandatory progression.
Is that quite honestly the most charitable interpretation you can muster?
My first integrated circuit
Yeah, but the jobs created in A2 are few and significantly underpay comparable jobs in Chicago or Pittsburgh. The appeal of living near UofM has long depressed wages there and this shows no sign of changing soon.

It's noteworthy that, beyond UofM's 50,000 students, the population of A2 is no more than 100K. That just isn't enough to draw large employers (like the Amazon HQ2) or gestate explosive growth. Thus job prospects aren't likely to boom in A2, ever, nor will A2 (or UofM) play a significant role in driving Detroit's renaissance.

>If we demand original spelling in everything we read, why is any cutoff acceptable?

I proposed Johnson's Dictionary because it's the first English dictionary that was widely accepted as authoritative. Before then you could argue that there was no real standard spelling, and all that mattered was whether writers could be understood. After it was published, idiosyncratic spelling gained meaning.

>In fact we retain several archaic spelling styles in Lovecraft that we might otherwise modernize, because he was famous for thinking of himself as an "aged antiquarian" and wanted his prose to reflect that.

I checked Lovecraft first for that reason, and I was relieved to find the changes were much less than I feared.
"False/misleading videos that perpetuate a scam."
Frontier did that to me with their router. I run all ubiquiti gear and don't want their junk (or any fees they may charge me for "renting" it). They forced me to take it even after I refused to be paying. Year later haven't been billed for it yet. Such a waste. I have a feeling one day they'll try to use it as an excuse to bill me a lot.
While it seemed against the times when I, in the age of YouTube, Spotify and Netflix, decided to start to build my media library with Plex...

...with artists suddenly withdrawing their music from streaming services...

...and Netflix constantly upping their price while enforcing ever more stringent HW-requirements for “good enough” DRM throughout your media rig for “premium” content...

...and YouTube happy to censor anything not approved by the Sanfran extreme left...

I have to say I really start appreciating having a personally curated, persistent library of media which is mine to own, and mine to decide where and how I use.

Everything old is new again, I guess.

Why would you expect that in a world where people dump hazardous waste into rivers to save money?
They won't think that, but the problem is they have to enforce laws as written which often don't have exceptions. And those who have to enforce the law have much more to lose by applying judgement than following the rules as written. Zero tolerance policies make it worse because they eliminate all judgement.

The idea of the elevator maintenance from the IBM commercial is that it can use ML to detect that there will be downtime that could be solved by preemptively calling for some maintenance. I guess "routine" was a bad word choice.

None of the alternative services will get there if no one is willing to use them.

Any time you open the paper, turn on the TV, crack open a book, or visit Hacker News, you are trusting some curator, gatekeeper, editor, or censor's judgement.

> So it was that while running, but not so much as to force my body into open rebellion, I noticed something odd. When I was heading down the gently sloping hill on Peter Coutts Road towards Stanford Avenue, I turned right as usual to head back home, passed along the edge of a grassy area, and smelled...cookies. But not really cookies. Raw cookie dough. Outside.

In what way do you think this relates to GDPR?
It certainly presents problems when all the most popular channels for communication are controlled by a handful of companies.
Kids need kids their age. 3 years is a big enough difference until you are close to an adult. Between those who don't have kids yet, those who's kids are already grown, and those who kids are the wrong age because families are so small there just are not a lot of kids in the neighborhood anymore.
isn't the ordering of bitfields undefined, therefore useless when trying to map out register bitflags?

(answered my own question: mutation rate from generation to generation in dogs is higher on average than in primates. Mechanism is not clear; one hypothesis is that mammals have DNA error correction "machinery" in their cells that is less effective in the canine genome. It's also unclear whether this has any impact on the evolution of dogs in terms of them being somehow more malleable to selective breeding than other species).
A lot of non-technical decision makers don't think this is phony and are making life very difficult for engineers in their companies we will all remember this though. For the future.
That isn't the conclusion of the market for lemons. It predicted that the price of used cars would be substantially depressed due to unknown quality, especially when the seller had little reputation. Considering the huge depreciation a new car experiences as soon as it is driven off the lot and that prices are lower when buying from individual sellers rather than used car dealerships, there is plenty of evidence that the theory was correct.
Throwing in my 2c as I've worked at massive fortune 100 companies and took a shift to work for small businesses.

The top comment about you eat what you kill in small business is the mantra. It's frightening to think if you don't perform, the risk isn't about not getting a raise, it's the company going under/firings will happen, now you need a job, other very bad stuff. This pressure forces you to be efficient, slacking off isn't an option and would be quite visible. Shit wouldn't get done.

Working at the large companies this was never a fear, if you performed above average (even probably average) your job was likely safe. The cost to hire, train, get someone plugged into the ridiculous amount of systems, assigned hardware, you name it is very high. Benefits are generally better as well because economies of scale, neat discounted stock options, etc. This probably opens the door to less efficient day-to-day stuff taking place (sometimes).

It's not cut and dry though, but I'm glad to have experienced both and am always open to either. Startup culture right now is super appealing personally because the whole Jobs' "Be Hungry" thing, age, mobility, etc but I'd imagine once you have a family to take care priorities and risk analysis is recalibrated which is cool too. Please note that I'm not saying having a family or working at large corporation the worker is less efficient it just might have less ramifications because of the structure.
Answer: "42."
I think storing a salted hash of their email address is a reasonable measure that should satisfy GDPR ...
I started this way, but I've actually upgraded the line to HD. And I got HBO for an extra $1 a month. I rarely use the actual cable box, but watch everything on the Xfinity TV website.

It doesn't cost much more than subscribing to an online TV service and has a pretty good selection at the basic channel tier.
Look harder :)
It's less about the cap and more about the wage curve. Some industries are extremely punishing. As a musician you either make nothing or millions. As an architect you get paid poverty wages or you're internationally famous and can name your price.

If you're a welder you'll get a very good starting wage, and while it will never hit stratospheric levels, the upper end when you you've had years of experience and have worked to increase your qualifications can be extraordinarily generous.

I know two highly qualified welders that work on oil plant equipment and they make so much money they can afford to take half the year off to do whatever they want. You don't want random idiots welding pipes in a billion dollar plant, and you need to pay for that kind of talent.

Consider: Tech workers often get paid very well, but I don't know of many that get overtime.

Ask HN: What are the best bio-hacking tips for programmers?
I almost switched to comcast this month since Frontier is charging me ~150 for 150/150 fiber. Asked comcast what their upload speed was in my area and they didn't want to initially tell me, but eventually they said its only ~10mbps. I get faster on my phone so that ended that discussion real fast. They also seemed really confused why I thought 10mbps was too low.

Edit: I'm in the area that would be getting this "new upgrade"
Do you know if there's any way that we can see what's happening during the mini demo?
IMHO typical startup-culture memo trying to pump morale before major release.

In my experience those at the very top are horrified when they find out that their staff believe that the boss requires them to enslave themselves to the company.

I believe that in many cases cultures of overwork are intrinsically generated, not imposed from on high. It could be fear of the boss, it could be a ruthless layer of middle management, it could be example-setting by perceived high fliers. Nothing is ever done about it because nobody wants to bother the execs with that sort of nebulous and sticky issue (especially one which sounds like whining).

It often happens with very driven and brilliant leaders, the types who themselves frequently work very hard and very long hours. Doubtless there is some social primate leader emulation dynamic, something we are helpless to escape.
If you're talking about the mobile app, you can swipe down on the list to see more of the map.

In many cases, I think defaulting to the list makes sense because of the extra data it has. For example, I'd rather go to a restaurant that has a 5-star rating and is open now as opposed to one that is rated 2 stars and is closed, even if the 2-star restaurant is easier to get to.

Imagine what you could build out of those bikes with a grinder and a welder.

I wish there was some way I could buy say 10 of these (in the US (and not have it cost too much)) to build something out of.
Ah! Thanks. Yes, indeed.
The rate would likely be relatively proportional: On average, with usage based pricing, people would pay about the same. But heavy Internet users would pay more and lighter users would pay less.
Very happy this filled your LoL slot. I hope it helped you relax (:

While I believe a few of the Ford family live in the A2 area still, that's only because Dearborn is already west of Detroit's center, thereby shortening their trip to Ford's HQ. But even without rush hour traffic, A2 is more than an hour's drive from Woodward Ave, inevitably straight down I-94.

I suspect not even the heirs and heiresses of Detroit's tycoons are willing to shuttle daily from A2 into Detroit proper.
My guess is it is childhood. I see poor people eating junk food all the time and feed that to their kids - the kids are fat on empty calories and so the brain doesn't get what it needs to grow smart.

That is just a guess though. I don't have the ability to verify it.
If you can't laugh at something, it owns you.
Haha, oh crap, you're right. Well, what's done is done.
It’s unlikely you work for free and neither do the employees and lawyers at Stripe.
Those pictures made me think that those were just inviting some organism to move into a new niche based upon bicycle predation or bicycle parasitism.

And sure enough, if you look closely enough, you can see the bike mold creeping up to cover the old, weak, and sickly bicycles that can no longer keep up with the herd.
This is a misleading story. The photographs of the bike piles are not abandoned bicycles - they are storage stockpiles from a bankrupt company awaiting liquidation.

I see a judiciary separate from state which is more than happy to put politicians back in their box when they introduce bad or overreaching law. Governments of all colours complain about the judiciary and Lords here in the UK - which I see as proof that the separation basically still works. I see data protection bodies that are separate from government and politics. I see occasional stories of record fines or breaches from mainly Western Europe and talk to friends and conclude small business and solo developers are not being fined or trolled into oblivion in nearby countries either. Yet EU DPA is most of what GDPR is with smaller maximum fines. Why isn't the disaster scenario you foresee already happening with current DPA and other laws? Why are so few fined for breaches and only the most extreme cases getting fines?

I'm less aware of justice systems further east and yes it's obvious that former Soviet bloc are going to be rightly more sensitive to and concerned about corruption. I'm also not aware how successfully that's been left behind from adopting EU laws and years of membership. That said, reading the pieces that turn up on HN it seems that the US is the one with problems of corruption in the justice system currently. No doubt that's also unrepresentative thanks to what's being shared about a vast nation.

So, the legal trolls - it's going to be registrars and data protection bodies bringing cases or seeking sanctions. Just like happens with current DPA. This does not appear to be akin, or anywhere near, the US DMCA where large media companies massively abuse takedowns via automated software and triggering numerous trivial errors. I don't see the scope to exhaust someone out of business - yet it's clearly easy with DMCA. There's nothing a Sony can abuse to pick on a little guy with GDPR - they can report me to the registrar.

You're right that it remains to be seen, but I sincerely doubt our data protection bodies are suddenly going to break out thumb screws and bring orders of magnitude more cases when they've kept fines for the final, extreme, and rare sanction til now.

I honestly expect that just as I feel more should have attracted fines and sanctions under DPA I'll find that GDPR is also being too lightly applied. We'll see. I've been wrong on the internet before. :)

Aside the snark, its time to regulate how our data is used, what decisions are made upon it, and a proper grievance for companies that do that. The GDPR is a good start, to be honest.
Yes, and the list is sorted with the closest / most recent hits on top. It's way better than just seeing a bunch of pins on a map.
Are the cell sharing extensions mentioned in the slides open sourced? (Sorry if it says either way in the video, I didn't get chance to watch it in full yet). Lack of sharing / collaboration extensions for Jupyter Notebooks / Lab are still a weak point I think.
