I think this is pretty simple and folks are talking over each other.

Involved parenting is a blocker issue, not just a critical one. There may be other critical issues in the queue, but those are blocked on that first one.

So the other issues being resolved may not matter at all if the first isn't completed first.

That's more or less how I see GPs argument. My rather diverse education background certainly lets me see that hypothesis as absolutely true - but I have my own personal biases due to experiences.
So how are video games handling this in regards to banning cheaters using IP bans or HW ID bans?

Can a cheater now ask to be forgotten and therefore the ban must be removed?

If the kernel parts are confusing you, I highly recommend "Linux Kernel Development" by Robert Love as a high-level introduction to the kernel architecture.

If you like that, proceed to "Linux Kernel Architecture" by Wolfgang Mauerer. The first chapter contains information similar to this article, but at a much greater level of detail.

I wouldn't trust such a set up for cryptography, the page could either use a bad RNG, or generate your private key by encrypting it with a public key for which they control the private one, so when you release your public key they are able to generate the private one.
I get it, it's like event driven programming with static event handlers per actor. Where you can't express a wait for a specific message directly in the body of the function. But you still have to do it somehow, which is what my question was about, how do people do it in Pony. Typically in event driven systems to do this either nested callbacks are used or higher order programming (futures/promises, etc).
I get the marketing advantage of being able to say "90% off!" on your products and I guess that Udemy did their own A/B testing on that but when I discovered the website a few months ago it really made me think twice on the quality of the marketplace.

I bought a few courses since then and I don't regret it, it landed me a job, but the whole "eternal discount" thing really was a real turn off, how about just putting the right price from the beginning?
Isn't that what Waymo is doing already?
It’s not wrong. It’s just a definition issue. The result is undefined in mathematics.

Throwing an error is actually “wrong” as the result should actually be undefined/null but most languages throw for practical reasons.

So in fact it’s most languages that are being “wrong but functional”. Pony is just functioning differently.

>I'd honestly ask a slightly different question : how much longer will the lower and middle classes pose a realistic threat to the elites?

As long as weapons of mass destruction can be engineered by a person with a couple of thousand in resources. Bioweapons are technologically getting easier and easier to make.

The lower classes may have fewer really smart people, but they are not totally lacking.

And never forget that the upper classes do occasionally spawn a class-conscious wannabe hero.
>> Nominal GDP per capita does not, however, reflect differences in the cost of living and the inflation rates of the countries; therefore using a basis of GDP per capita at purchasing power parity (PPP) is arguably more useful when comparing differences in living standards between different nations.

I think you really nailed it with the packaging concerns. It doesn't help that every little framework (and mini-framework) seems to think that the problem can be fixed by just shipping their own little CLI wrapper.

Not having a decent build and package management system is what makes the frontend ecosystem so hard, IMO. I'm hoping this finally changes in the next couple of years.

It doesn't matter what the EU purports, that's nothing more than a comical fantasy on their part. I live in the US, my business operates in the US, I operate by US law.

It also doesn't matter what China purports I should do with their citizen data, or South Africa, or Australia, or Brazil: their wishes don't overrule the supremacy of US law inside the US. If China wants me to delete everything on my service about Tiananmen Square, or an anti-China activist, guess what, that's not going to happen for the exact same reason. I'm also not subject to the UK government's enforced media blackout on the Tommy Robinson arrest: they too can piss off.

If a EU citizen signs up with my US based service, their data will be governed by US law.

It is that simple. It will remain that simple. The US isn't going to cede its sovereignty to the EU: it's drastically more powerful than the EU in every regard. There is no scenario where the US lays back and allows the EU to legislate how the domestic US economy operates in such large ways.

The only likely outcome is that the US comes up with its own new privacy rules in the next few years, which will be different - more lenient - than GDPR. If you want to operate in the two markets, you'll have to comply with each approach accordingly.
This is the saddest part, America is mighty but that doesn't translate into the life quality of its citizens at all.
I feel lucky as a non-Jew non-black that I won't have to live in terror of the people radicalized by the Daily Stormer's conspiracy theories and hate speech. Maybe you do too. That doesn't mean it's right for a company to give the Daily Stormer a platform for radicalization, which the company is under no legal obligation to do.
Pony uses a queue for storing messages that have been sent to an actor, so that's probably a reasonable way to start thinking about it. I'm not sure how far I would stretch this comparison, though. :)
To his defense mods are more consistent than that:

I think the complaint is that GUI builders from the 90s could have been adopted and improved (responsive for one) on the web in the last 20 years. Flash had a GUI builder, animation timeline, etc. ten years ago.
There isn't, especially for small companies. Also, it starts with recognizing that it's not their data, it's user's data.
I remember reading on some listicle website that the original English accent used by the commoners in that time period was much closer to the modern American accent. Something about how the accents of colonies tend to become fixed in time. And a quick google for "original english accent american" turns up a few links supporting that idea. I'm trying to reconcile that with this here. Is this performance based on newer, more nuanced evidence? Or maybe this is more specifically the accent of Londoners, while the average rural Englishman would be closer to the American accent? Or perhaps what he was speaking really is very close to the modern American accent and I just have a tin ear (definitely shouldn't rule that out!)?

Moreover, I'm curious how one finds evidence to support what historic accents were like. It's not like it shows up in writing, after all. Is it by studying all the accents of the neighbors and trying to extrapolate? Maybe someone stumbled across a 17th century pronunciation guide? robotmay on here commented that some of the puns and rhymes only work in this sort of accent, which is a particularly clever way of gathering evidence.
21 CFR 1030.10 limits radiation from a microwave to 5 milliwats per square centimeter (at a distance of 2 inches). For an average-sized microwave that's over 8 watts from the front of the device. Again that's a maximum, but it's possible. TI's devices are customizable but an example on the site shows total power draw of 1.4 watts.

Why are you assuming "machine from the 70s"? I know modern processors (DSPs) that need to saturate on integer arithmetic in order to maintain correctness. If you want your naive overflow checks to work on your x86 project, why not just use a compiler option like -fwrapv?

IMO, this is just plain ignorance - people arguing against the standard, while believing only their favorite platform is significant. C code is still big in embedded, you can't just trash the standard like that.
> "the compound annual return of the respondent group is 8.97% greater than the non-respondent companies."

That's a promising punch line.
Mighty doesn’t mean everyone gets free stuff via government redistribution programs. And maybe one can see that this is the reason America is “mighty.” We attract and retain the best of the whole world, who come here because they are tired of senseless redistribution campaigns by the have-nots of the world. Not to mention freedom generally, which is why my family came to the US: we were not seeking economic opportunities, but freedom from oppression and discrimination, which in 2018 is still much more the exception than the rule globally.

Russia can huff and puff all it wants, but Ed Snowden is still basically the only prominent American who has ever moved to Russia. This while millions of people from the FSU moved to the US, Israel, Europe, Australia and Canada over the past thirty years, which is the fundamental difference between the US and Russia, etc.

Now if only there was a way to send the people who want redistribution to places where they have that sort of thing. That would be great! But guess what: Norway doesn’t want these people :(. They have enough people jockeying for the dole.

Medisas is hiring to make hospitals safer
Medisas is using software to make hospitals safer and clinicians more effective. Technology in hospitals is outdated, slow, and difficult to use -- most clinicians use paper, pagers, and hallway conversations to stay organized and on the same page. We are on a mission to change this and improve patient care.

Our product helps doctors and nurses effectively manage all their tasks and transfer crucial patient information, a workflow that is currently responsible for 80% of all serious medical errors. This equates to more than 350,000 deaths per year in the United States.

We are hiring mission-driven, ambitious, smart individuals in sales, marketing, customer success, and engineering. If you are ready for a big challenge, come join us!

--

Our product is currently being used in hospitals around the country, and we are backed by YC, Khosla Ventures, SV Angel, Andreessen Horowitz, and a number of prominent angels.

Visit medisas.com/careers or send us an email at careers [@] medisas.com; include a brief resume and tell us why you want to work at Medisas. We’re looking forward to hearing from you!
I disagree. It does, just not at the rate that it could.
>You can get the same bits in your JS objects as you have in the DB. If not, that means your system is shit.

I'm not sure what exactly you mean by that. But one thing is absolutely clear. You cannot automatically derive a logical layer from the layer above or below. If you could, there would be no reason to have seperate (logical) layers in the first place.

That's why you get an "impedance mismatch" that has to be bridged by providing some additional information, which often has consequences for performance, debuggabilty and clarity.

Maybe I misunderstand the gist of your comment though.

We need to understand that as platforms start offering different services which serve different purposes, they start spawning platforms which become independent of their predecessors.

They may be new buzzwords, but it's important to differentiate them so that the use cases and end users they are targeting become more narrow and specific.

My point was that at some point adding more desktop-like functionality to Terminal you essentially create a GUI.

I could argue that OSX / Ubuntu are modular and configurable and easily allow you to control data density too.

This is the start of a play for the JEDI contract, which is estimated at $10bn over 2 years. This would make that one contract responsible for ~1/4 of all Google Cloud revenue.

I also think that while there is a lot of gnashing of teeth, it's not really clear that the optics here matter. Amazon & Microsoft are already doing these sorts of projects with no backlash. This is really only a story because there are people inside Google speaking out.

What's pretty clear from these threads is that people who are already dislike Google, dislike this too, but it's not clear that this is having an impact on people's opinions who otherwise have a positive image of Google.
For a man on the street to invest in Cruise, would he need to invest in GM? (Or "invest in GM and short Ford" or something?)

> I do really wish more Shakespeare was performed in an original accent, as there's an awful lot of rhymes and jokes that don't work in modern pronunciation. Like "hour to hour" being pronounced like "whore to whore", which suddenly makes that line quite a bit funnier.

Things like this, among others, continue to convince me that reading Shakespeare plays in high school is largely a waste of time. Unless you have an excellent teacher, who explains the puns, the historical context, and other things, it's about as useful as looking at storyboards of a movie instead of watching the movie itself.
From the original article and chart (not the current linked site):

> "California has a labor force of 19.3 million compared to the labor force in the UK of 33.8 million (World Bank data here). Amazingly, it required a labor force 75% larger (and 14.5 million more people) in the UK to produce the same economic output last year as California! ... Further, California as a separate country would have been the 5th largest economy in the world last year, ahead of the UK ($2.62 trillion), India ($2.61 trillion) and France ($2.58 trillion)."

Totals are interesting. It tells you about things like the US’s power in international trade, reminds is how big the US market is, why people focus on it, etc.

It doesn’t mean GDP per capita isn’t interesting either, but they’re different lenses used to view different things.
The problems start when "ill-equipped" is defined as expansively as possible. See the various cases of CPS getting involved when parents try to teach their kids basic independence by letting them walk to the playground on the corner and play there.

I think the way CPS is currently done in the US is actually causing a great deal of harm to current kids whose parents are totally reasonable parents...

I assume it's for the same reason that people use services like Auth0 -- they don't want to waste development time programming all the fringe cases for authentication, when all they really care about is logging a user in and trusting that they are who they say they are.

Some benefits:

* Quicker to MVP

* Don't have to rewrite AuthX for each platform (web, iOS, Android, etc)

* Less worrying about the various permutations of 2-factor across all the applicable auth types (username, email, oauth, LDAP)

* Not having to figure out how to federate identity

* Not wanting the burden of GDPR/Privacy compliance in-app

etc.

That's a good question, and something that's not always obvious without having been in a situation to get advantage from such an improvement.

First, even if waiting for a response from the database is the largest single contributor to your response time, and if you're running an extremely low-traffic service, there's still benefit in reducing your total latency

Second, if you're not running a low-traffic service, and have enough requests that you're approaching the memory or cpu capacity of your web server (or have an existing application that's already deployed across multiple servers), making significant reduction in your CPU or memory use can let you handle quite a bit more traffic with less hardware.

Third, not all web services involve little more than making a request to a single external slow database. The data for your service could be:
* Static
* Ephemeral, kept in-process
* In a database on the same server
* In a fast database (memcache)
* Require nontrivial processing
* Processed by a separate service you're just acting as a proxy for
Thank you!

Yes in my experience of awk/gawk on Windows, things work the same, other than file separators, line endings, and similar platform-specific issues.

For your second question, awk simply works. It's reliable, fast, and everywhere. I also like python and perl, and choose these for any modern system.
I thought this was going to touch on how many Udemy courses are stolen.
I think it depends on your goals and your interests.

A friend of mine is self-taught (mainly front-end programming, JS, HTML, CSS). He started in his 40s and work in a completely different field. He developed surprisingly good programming habits by himself, but he's strongly lacking in some areas, compared to people who followed a conventional CS education. For instance, he has little knowledge of algorithms: he can't write a merge sort, assess its complexity, or work with dynamic data-structures. These are the type of things that can be hard to figure out alone. I think it's worth investing some time on this. There are tons of resources, e.g. a few good Coursera classes.

You can also focus on different layers of the software stack. You've been working on the front-end, but you can have fun with things like system programming (e.g. writing a UNIX shell in C), or a compiler for a simple programming language.

I personally enjoy doing programming projects from various universities. There are tons of cool projects at all levels.
One earlier example that comes to mind is Galileo demonstrating his prototype telescope to the doge of Venice in the early 1600s. The potential of the new instrument to detect far-away ships who might wish to raid the port city was apparent to the government, and they doubled Galileo's salary.
