There are two official primary times a Leap Second can occur. December 31 and June 30. There are provisions for more slots, but they're not really expected to ever be used.

Like most things associated with time Leap Seconds are a huge headache to implement properly on computers. If you want some fun watch what various NTP servers around the world do when Leap Seconds roll around. You will see clocks that start to drift for 15 minutes before jumping to the right time, some that wait until 8AM local time on the following day to correct, and some that just go crazy. And of course you have Google's clock smearing across most of a day.

IIRC there was one major earthquake that caused a sooner than expected Leap Second adjustment.

Fun fact: GPS, NTP, and many similar timing formats have flags in the signal that warn clients of upcoming leap second events. Few receivers pay attention to them however.

Checking out submodules.

Put

git submodule sync && git submodule update --init --recursive

into `.git/hooks/post-checkout` and never again wonder why your code doesn't work after switching branches (because you forgot to update submodules).

Also put it into `post-rewrite` so that the same works for `git rebase`.
I hear this often and then I wonder what kind of curriculum people went through. I had lab session in science class as far back as middle school and continuing all the way through high school and college.

During the lectures we learned facts and derived some consequences. But during labs we ran experiments, gathered data, and had to perform some regressions.

I'm going through the MIT OCW QM course and the instructor is motivating all the formulas given with experimental results from the 1890s thru 1920s to show how intuitions are violated.

I've never seen a single textbook or been in a lecture that was just piles and piles of formulas with no exposition or motivation.

The only time I've experienced this was outside of STEM. Every history class I've taken, prior to university level, was piles of births, deaths, wars, facts, ad infinitum.
Peter Thiel got a lot of flak for this comment: "If you’re middle class, if you’re upper middle class, if you’re a single digit millionaire like Hulk Hogan, you have no effective access to our legal system. It costs too much. This was the modus operandi of Gawker in large part, to go after people who had no chance of fighting back."

It's somewhat hard to square with "litigious culture" criticisms of some parts of the country. But the details matter. Filing & defending in small-claims court is pretty cheap without a lawyer (and even with one is "only" in the small thousands) and person-vs-person cases won't be too terrible compared to companies-vs-individuals...
I think clojure(script) would be one of them. Great to write for the JVM, for the Web, to use with React, and more.
Maybe I'm unlucky but in my experience the reddit video player is terrible and maybe 25% of the of the time just gives me a black box or the first frame and won't play.

It also has the caveat that if you want to share it with someone you have to send them a link to the reddit comment thread, which is not always desired or appropriate.
I wouldn't be surprised if they had to file a suspicious activity report for every one of those checks.

GIF is only 256 colours, so the renderer optimises the living daylights out of the palette to make things look vaguely uncrappy. Any ad inserted would have to only use those colours (which are then very different from GIF to GIF). That's a tough sell for brand graphic designers. GIFs are also often short loops, breaking the loop with an ad, especially when inserted automatically, will break a high number, if not most, of the good GIFs in circulation. Doing anything dynamically also breaks caching which is probably undesirable when most of your business is pumping dumb bytes around the net.

Finally, you can't add a link. I guess it's still useful for brand advertising, but I suspect that's less valuable than the kind where you can directly track conversions.
APS is generally easier to get Solar with than SRP is... despite being federally funded, they are definitely protectionist by nature. They had to be sued multiple times to get what solar exists attached to SRP infrastructure.
I was in Kenya just after this, when Miguna Miguna went missing for a few days (people feared he had been disappeared,but he "just" got deported). As chance would have it, I was in his home town. Quite heavy demonstrations - makeshift roadblocks with burning tires, and they raided a beer truck, and the police did crowd control by shooting into the air.

I was in Kenya in 2007 as well when the same opposition candidate also lost the election. That was much, much uglier. While I do sympathise somewhat with his followers (the region he is from is much poorer than central Kenya, and this follows tribal lines - they feel they are not being heard, and there is some truth to that), I do think that this candidate is a quite dangerous man to have in power. Any influence he has now is coming from the fact that his followers will tear the country up if he says so - and he did say so back in 2007.

Kenyan politics is a bit of a mess I'm afraid..

Even with tarballs all it takes is one fuck-up in a script and your homedirectory is gone. In that sense nothing is safe. You could of course audit all the code that the makefile or build script executes but I really don't know anybody that would do that for anything beyond the trivial.

We've been totally conditioned to just wget some archive, unpack it and build it, and even if git clone takes it one step further in day-to-day practice there is no difference between the two.

I prefer hiring people in their 30ies. It’s the perfect mix of being old enough to be practical and patient and young enough to still be cheap. The cheap bit comes from being in the Danish public sector where seniority gives automatic pay increases that you can’t legally turn down, so there is that.

I do wonder why people wouldn’t hire older programmers or engineers though. A lot of them are still extremely nerdy about their hobby, they have profound amounts of experience and they’ll typically both be able to follow orders and voice their opinions. Often they’ll have a good grip on work life balancing as well, making them less prone to stress.

I’m not sure ageism is really a big problem though. I haven’t seen any unemployment numbers on old programmers being huge, though I will admit that fear of abuse was one of the reasons I went into management.

That being said, I do think people should plan their staff to be without huge age gaps. It’s one of the few things that has an empirical proven negative effect on teams. But that goes both ways.

Thanks, peff, for the feedback. I pushed some changes to try to clarify that this does indeed require `clone --recursive`, and I added a note to credit Etienne Stalsman explicitly. That was an oversight in my haste.

I'm confused about the distinction. You send women money you are hooking up with, you advertise to other women that if they hook up with you, you will also send them money. Very fine line you are drawing. Not judging, good for you!
They could have destroyed UNIX, traditional commercial UNIXes that is, like SGI and such.

Many UNIX customers were in the process of evaluating their workstation story related to hardware and license costs, eyeing a possible switch to NT Workstations.

That did not happen, because GNU/Linux came into the scene and many saw there an opportunity to improve it and get a pass porting their UNIX software into it instead, while using commodity PC hardware, specially as BSD future was still being decided.

Without BSD and GNU/Linux, the future would have looked much different.

Instead BSD and GNU/Linux were the ones killing commercial UNIXes.
I just took AP Physics and this looks like it would have been very useful. Will pass on to my teacher. Nice work!
They are going to 2x-3x production in a month? Or is a "burst-build requirement" just a reference to capability?
If you're setting up a desk, I would highly recommend something with adjustable height. It doesn't necessarily have to be sit/stand, but that's probably ideal. The standard desk height of 29ish inches is too high for 95% of the population [0]. Your shoulders should be relaxed and keyboard a few inches above your lap. You could mitigate this with a keyboard tray too, but I'm not a fan.

Most of these links are targeted towards men (Nordstrom's site even explicitly mentions they are men's). Aside from pattern, how are these not purses marketed to men? And not all floral scents are marketed to women, any auto parts store that stocks air fresheners will have floral scents that I've always considered gender neutral.
Yup. I'd also like to see a couple other figures alongside traffic flow like, "total square footage of structure", "collision rate", and "number of displaced residents."

...right, but then you have to figure out explicit metrics for determining what "prestige" is, and you have to explicitly implement the mechanics of it. i think this is a worthwhile research project of its own (or many research projects). but the mapping is very much non-trivial. i think the amount that people complain about how poorly the usual social media ontology ("friends", "likes", etc) maps to the "real"-world equivalent shows that this isn't something were you can just be like "we'll implement a first-pass of the blockchain thing now, and we'll refine the granularity of our prestige tokens later". thanks, but no thanks.

which is all to say, like so many of the things people want to use a block chain for, the hard part is the politics and the real-world nuance, not the immutable ledger. the immutable ledger is not trivial. but compared to the other stuff, it's not all that hard (and is certainly more solved, at this point).
How this likely works is the geofence is one of tens of different tactics that attempt to reach the audience who will soon need a lawyer. No way to tell unless you work for the ad agency, but from the outside this doesn't seem like an effective tactic to me.
I'm not jacob019, who originally made the comment, but as I understand it, the point was not the debt. The point was the maintenance. When the basement floods, it's my problem, not the landlords. When the attic fan fails (I was surprised that attics had fans), it's my problem. When the driveway concrete starts to buckle, it's my problem.

In that sense, the house owns you, not the other way around.
Square Cash may have less bloat and a far nicer UI, but it charges a percentage for instant deposit, while Venmo has a flat $0.25 fee. So when you don't want to wait three days to get the money to your bank account, you grit your teeth and use Venmo.
In the end, SRP is charging a LOT more for the power you do have to get from SRP. If you do solar with SRP, also get something like a couple Tesla walls. You don't want to get any more than you absolutely have to. The rates are like over half higher than non-solar customers. The rates for APS are weirdly restricted as well, but not bad.
>"6-months embargo paralyzes progress."

As long as they put the code on github or a blog or whatever then who really cares? Do people really get that much out of these academic style papers in this field? They are more like a press release.

Or are you saying this embargo also actively prevents them from sharing stuff beyond the document, like the code?

> This is potentially a colossal waste of ad spend for lawyers because they get some people in the waiting room, but they also get every single device in the building, parking, and surrounding area.

A 10-50% chance of successfully getting an ad in front of an active patient is tremendously higher than any other advertising method available to them, I'd suspect.
No problem! Thanks for all your work on this.

I should have clarified above, too: there were folks from GitHub, Microsoft, and Google working on the various fixes.
Yes, you can be if the business is small. Obviously there is a conflict of interest there but it is better to have a conflicted DPO than none at all. Even in a larger company the DPO would report to the CEO and then you'd be back where you started. The only way to really have a DPO independent of the organization is to have the DPO report to the board, and this is in fact done in places where that is warranted.

Your literal reading of the law is right but your practical implementation will still have to fit the available maneuvering room and no DPA - one would hope - would insist on bankrupting half the SME's in their country.

Just wanted to affirm this - I saw the streams announcement last year on the same day that I was having issues with Kafka and I implemented it into production for processing IoT time series data right away.

It was probably a bit too early for production use, but it worked perfectly!

One nice advantage of it vs. Kafka is that given that it's so lightweight, a Redis instance with streams can be dedicated to each customer with its own port and firewall setup and give you a really solid security story for clients who are paranoid about such things. (Kafka security is possible too of course...but harder to explain for a layman.)

Thanks antirez - it's great. I've written a python Redis iterator that I'm looking forward to PR'ing to the python client to encapsulate the XREAD timestamp tracking bit and manage timeouts.

It isn't all about personal injury. Hospitals are where life-changing things happen. They are where many people are born and die. People coming in and out of hospitals, be them patients or family members, may need all sorts of legal services, wills and estate planning being top of the list. Not every lawyer advertising near hospitals is an ambulance-chasing leach.
> People think anything that can't fit in to excel is somehow 'big data'.

To be fair, I'd say this is only true if "excel" is generalized to "the largest non-distributed-computing tool they're personally aware of".

Granted, that may usually be a spreadsheet, but at least in the tech industry, people do know of DBMSes. They just happen to think an affordable single server is an order of magnitude smaller than is actually achievable, even if it's an order of magnitude larger than a spreadsheet.

I liked the multitude of transfer options in VLC, but felt like the UI was too busy. Decoupled has most of the same transfer options, but looks a lot more like an iOS app.

One odd thing I noticed; I uploaded several directories of music using AirDrop, and every single file I uploaded shows up on the device with a corresponding 212 byte file with the prefix ._ mixed in. Does Decoupled add that? It makes reading the file list a bit harder.

Off topic, but amateur (HAM) radio needs a lot more Jeri Ellsworths. Not only is she the kind of traditional HAM who like to build stuff she isn't constrained by the notion of "the way it's always been." This pisses off some of the old-timers, but they need to have their cheese moved, IMO.
Getting the right personal injury case is like hitting the lottery. Lawyers are willing to spend big on advertising to be in the right place at the right time for the right case.

It's the same as any type of advertising. As long as they produce more than they cost, it's a no brainer.

You can use 256 colors per-frame, as well as using transparancy. Also, each frame is just a diff from the previous frame's content. So it's not unreasonable, just pointless when video formats are so good.
The best line of defense against this nonsense is education, free and of a very high quality. Absent that people will be pretty easy to manipulate. So whenever you're faced with a problem like this I would argue for better education rather than for some kind of control over the media, the liars should die out because nobody believes them anymore.

Given how incredibly entrenched some power structures based on lies are it looks as if my plan is mostly failing. Education budgets are being cut left right and center and the quality of education has been steadily trending down since ~1950 or so.
How about an amazon e-gift card based on your plans they get the referral on.

Maybe a minimum of $20, then $50 and $100.

How about a bonus e-gift card every 12 months their signup is a customer.

So if they refer a signup on your $99 plan they get $100 after it is confirmed and then every 12 months another $100 e-gift card.

I don't drink coffee btw, but I do have an amazon wish list.
And the other protocols, like Spotify Connect, Chromecast etc, just send the URL of the stream and make the speakers themselves handle it. It's such a better approach that I'm baffled AirPlay 2 still has not adopted it.
