Not always. When you do studio photography for example, you are hardly "capturing the moment", you are pretty much setting up the whole architecture leading to it.
So all hospitals should just run old winxp on their crt/mrt and other vital hardware? ReactOS has a use case and it's saving all of us money. In healthcare and in production for cnc machines and the like.
Yeah, I'll probably do just that. Thankfully, I can research it more in my spare time.

I think I'll start with a hobby-project and see how well it goes.

I keep hearing stuff like that but it’s not even close to accurate.

BEAM and Erlang give you tooling that you can’t get from any other language, regardless of how it’s deployed. Using Kubernetes doesn’t make up for any of that...it just gives you a way to deploy containers.
Not the same as real native like C++.

I heard an argument once that said basically almost all tech companies are just profiting off the arbitrage between the developed and the developing world.

Unfortunately that is not the way the microbes of this world (and now other worlds) work. The form that is really tough is the bacterial spore (spores are one of the lifecycle stages of some bacteria). These spores can survive in a complete vaccuum for years. The more bacteria you introduce into a system the more spores you will end up with contaminating everything.

I personally doubt that this contamination is much of a problem. The planets of the solar system have been dusted in earth rocks containing bacterial spores thrown up by large asteroid strikes for billions of years.
I work on React so I have some context on this.

I’m sorry it’s frustrating but it’s not at all because FB lost interest. In fact it’s the opposite. We’re making pretty big bets on complex core architectural improvements to RN, and the team is heads down busy with these core changes. Unfortunately it does mean that PRs and external contributions get less attention until those core improvements are done.

If there’s a specific PR that’s blocking you please ping me in DM on Twitter and I’ll try to get somebody to review it.

Cheers.

Yeah, that's probably true.

I had desire to do similar things but with a HP48 calculator. Basically have a beefy arm thing as a 'coprocessor' to unload long computations and let the calculator be mostly the user interface.
Is this something that would be worth reporting/forwarding to the manufacturers of the soap (Johnson and Johnson?). It seems that they would have a stake in preventing counterfeits of their products being sold and Amazon might be less willing to blow off complaints that come from the legal team of a multinational.

If you still have the counterfeit item and a copy of the correspondence between yourself and Amazon, it might be worth forwarding...

Edit: I realise I have responded to the wrong person. The point still stands, however.
The problem with Hollywood is that a pretty face and sexy body is valued more than good acting. When market value of a good is diminished to a single dimension (which is sexiness in case of Hollywood) it's a sign of market commoditization with price being the single advantage. And a highly commoditized market is a cruel place. Always.
[SIGGRAPH 2018] Mode-Adaptive Neural Networks for Quadruped Motion Control
Not having a server at all is the easiest. I run my front ends on S3 / CloudFront. Backend is run on Lambdas, with state stored in DynamoDB/SimpleDB (can't wait for serverless Aurora though!).

create-react-app and aws-amplify gets you really far in a hurry.

I then normally use react-redux, @redux-offline/redux-offline, react-router-dom, and flow-bin.

Examples:
- https://gitlab.com/kabo/synchronize-swatches
- https://gitlab.com/kabo/hydrant-map
- https://gitlab.com/kabo/cryptodo

For more backendy stuff I use serverless to manage lambdas.

GPs explanation is nothing more than a hypothesis as to why the Marshmallow test would be predictive of later performance:

> The post argues that [a "generalised ability/desire to take and pass tests"] is an underrecognised character trait which can predict success in today's Western test-oriented world.

In other words: it follows the assumption that being good at the Marshmallow test represents inherent character traits that are predictive of later performance. Except that the whole point of the article is debunking this notion, and the paragraph that I quote highlights this in particular.

The new paper shows that this is not the case. The Marshmallow test still is predictive, but that seems to be because being able to take it correlates with having affluent backgrounds, not with it representing an inherent character trait that predicts anything.

I have exactly the same experience(two years of RN).

Be conservative when adding dependencies, rather try to solve it yourself unless it's very complex and the dependency is well maintained.

Often dependencies will cause you problems when upgrading and many maintainers don't respect semver(could be a JS-ecosystem issue).

I don’t know what Kleenol 30 is, but I would have thought it obvious that ethanol and isopropyl alcohol are insufficient to sterilise.

It’s not clean until it’s been soaked in sodium hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide, UV sterilised, gamma irradiated, then parked in a decaying orbit above the sun.

I'm quite surprised they fired Soghoian in 2016 rather than assign him elsewhere within Apple when they decided Automator wasn't worth it anymore (despite that they still have a page for it here: https://support.apple.com/guide/automator/welcome/mac).

He was obviously a brilliant guy, so I find it strange he couldn't have had a good fit anywhere in the company.
This very article is about how the original paper did not control enough for confounding factors:

> Watts and his colleagues were skeptical of that finding. The original results were based on studies that included fewer than 90 children—all enrolled in a preschool on Stanford’s campus. In restaging the experiment, Watts and his colleagues thus adjusted the experimental design in important ways: The researchers used a sample that was much larger—more than 900 children—and also more representative of the general population in terms of race, ethnicity, and parents’ education. The researchers also, when analyzing their test’s results, controlled for certain factors—such as the income of a child’s household—that might explain children’s ability to delay gratification and their long-term success.

With C99 it's not that obvious. Compound literals are outside of C++ standard. However GCC for example supports them, but a bit differently [0].

int foobar(struct foo *f)

Personally I love the way you describe the brain in the simplest terms possible. You're describing what has the potential to be a very scary hard to learn topic in the simplest terms possible. I'd liken this to how Andrew Ng manages to explain ML/DL in a very calm simple manner.

So often lecturers hide behind terminology to make a topic seem more impressive / complex. So thank you. Plus great to see that you're on here too!
"I would have thought it obvious that ethanol and isopropyl alcohol are insufficient to sterilise"

Especially since no hospital would rely on just ethanol and isopropyl. You'd think they'd at least try to live up to the standards of a hospital.

There are some properly large companies like github and shopify that run a large rails stack, it seems to work out pretty well for them. At my current workplace we have some streaming servers pushing about 15 gigabyte/second at peak load and the ruby processes easily saturate the available bandwidth on the EC2 instances. Like you say, the slowness of Ruby is greatly exaggerated. Sure we could rewrite the whole thing in Go/C++/Rust/etc, but it would not work any better and the gain of using 10% CPU instead of 20 is not really relevant since it's the NIC that is the bottleneck.

Can I reply to posts by "ocdtrekkie" that are not true about Google?

I mean basically every post he shares is something negative about Google and in best case is a half truth.

I would just like to see things be accurate. I am an engineer by background and maybe a bit OCD on things being factual.

Also is it allowed to have every post go after one company?

"It’s not clean until it’s been soaked in sodium hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide, UV sterilised, gamma irradiated, then parked in a decaying orbit above the sun."

By that time, you've also 'sterilised' most electronics...
That has not been my experience, I'm afraid. The impression I keep getting is that (with due respect to "the power of the context" http://www.vpri.org/pdf/m2004001_power.pdf) teaching someone about fallacies automatically makes them about 15 IQ stupider. In general there's a lot to be said for this oversimplified mental model: "exposing a human being to moral or logical education just leads him to spin out more alluring and more effectively deceptive rationalisations for the stupid and despicable things he was going to do anyway".
Tried that now... still lots of latency, if I pick sound with short attack so it should be punchy... then tap the keyboard fast, the sound is generated on the up after my finger has pressed the key. So it's pretty disorientating to actually perform on unless you are only interested in soft pads :P

To be fair this might just be linux on this machine, it's an old mac and I had only run software synths on it in OS X before (which were playable, but I know xnu has been tweaked with low latency audio in mind), maybe I need one of those special linux kernels to get low latency on this old thing.
The issue is there is a poster that goes by "ocdtrekkie" for some reason has post a number of times things that are not true and pretty much only posts things that are not true around Google in a negative light. Not sure what drives it but it is not based on facts.

Am I allowed to refute when things said are not true? I will post with facts to support?

Perfect example is him posting all over that Google removed "do not be evil" from employee code of conduct.

Here is a link to the actual agreement. Please read the last line and what employees are left with.

https://abc.xyz/investor/other/google-code-of-conduct.html

"And remember… don’t be evil, and if you see something that you think isn’t right – speak up!"

Now this is a factual matter. Not an opinion. So him posting something that is blatantly untrue I am not allowed to refute with facts?

He does this same thing constantly.

Just looking for help how to handle someone that does this over and over again.

Thanks in advance!
Lots of the automation did happen. Heck, the chip manufacturing detailed in the video itself is great example; pretty much all of the human labor shown there has been eliminated.

Looking at economic trends of the past 100 or so years, there is marked change beginning in the late 70s, especially in various forms of equality. Using automation alone for explaining that would be a folly, but equally folly would be to say that automation has had no economic effect.
>The cornerstone of the case against unions isn't that we should stop respecting people, it's that unions are often no longer the best way to accomplish that goal.

>Generally we need to move those solutions into less partial laws and courts, instead of creating another unchecked center of power over workers.

Those most in need of the labor rights and respect unions traditionally afford are often those who have almost no access to the legal system. Fundamental problems like that are very difficult to fix, so in the meantime unions are the best way to accomplish that goal.

I agree. In Europe universitys expect you to be an adult capable of managing your life and don‘t involve themselves in it.

> "Robbery is a violent crime (robbery, by definition, consists of using force or threat of force/intimidation) that places members of the public in danger."

If you purposely under pay someone, you are:

1) devaluing them as a human being and a citizen

2) you likely could be putting them under excessive stress due to lack of income.

3) if they are (mostly) minorites it could be argued that your decision is racism.

Etc.

Given what we know about the mind and the body, the gap between physical violence and emotional violence is becoming less and less disticnt. (Note: Studies have found the memory and effect of emotional abuse last longer).

It is at this illogocial to priortize one over the other. Theft is theft. In both case there are "side effects." In fact, I'd argue your better off witnessing a bank robbery then being subjected to wage theft.

None the less, fines are a slap on the wrist. Look at Wells Fargo. Disgusting. They say crime doesn't pay; unless of course your collar is white.

You shouldn't recommend people to scream to a group of people "Shut the fuck up" because it's not only unpolite but it can be the source of a lot of problems for that person. Be considerate with your recommendations and aware that you could cause problems to others with them.

No, it doesn't. Art is 95% craft, 5% inspiration. If an artist doesn't put in his 10,000 hours learning his craft, then being unique won't save him from being mediocre.

Artistic endeavors are much like PhDs in that you're making a small dent on the edge of pop culture. Without the long hours learning craft you'll never reach the edge. Everything unique you do will be stolen by people who know the craft better and they're the ones that will get famous from it.

You might have misinterpreted the article in question, since you write:

> it follows the assumption that being good at the Marshmallow test represents inherent character traits that are predictive of later performance. Except that the whole point of the article is debunking this notion [...]

The article does no such thing. It only shows that controlled for socioeconomic situation, there is no correlation. That does not mean that there is no predictive power.

I disagree. Elixir/Phoenix is as simple as Ruby/Rails and an order of magnitude more performant out of the box. Especially if you already know Ruby and the basics of functional programming. Plus, unlike Rails, you probably won't need separate servers for background jobs, websockets and caching.
Yep, same experience.

I'm Canadian but living in Barcelona, in El Born district. I had no idea drunk Brits on vacation could make so much noise at nights. I live above a cafe/bar frequented by locals, and I have no issue with their late night (late night for this Canadian anyhow, around 10-midnight) enjoyment of tapas, wine and friends. Sure the Spaniards aren't exactly known for being quiet people, but it's not unreasonable levels of noise and they're quite quite after midnight. Its the bloody tourists that fly down on a 30 quid Ryanair flight with their lads for a weekend of fun in Barcelona and scream bloody marry at 3 am that get under my skin.
