The problem with that is uneven wear.

BondLink | Junior/Senior Software Engineer | Boston, MA, US | ONSITE | Full Time

We are a small team of Scala engineers using advanced functional techniques to ship reliable, rot-proof software. We use lots of shapeless and scalaz, a free monad based program/interpreter architecture, monadic logging, and more. If these things are familiar you will feel right at home, if they are interesting to you and you want to learn, you will find a safe and supportive environment to grow on the job.

About the company:

BondLink provides a SaaS platform to bond issuers in the $4 trillion municipal bond industry. We have recently raised a large Series A, we have strong revenue growth, and we are already working with many of the largest issuers in the country.

The company was founded by a former Massachusetts Assistant State Treasurer who raised nearly 25 billion in funding for the state and set the gold standard in the industry for transparency and investor outreach, partnered with a multiple-time startup founder with several successful exits under his belt.

We have deep expertise and credibility in the industry we serve, great product-market fit, a strong footing with a ton of momentum, and a great handle on our software delivery.

If this sounds like something you'd want to be a part of, shoot an email to brian(at)bondlink(dot)com
Should be noted that it's not perfect. It encourages a rather slow pace in politics. There is also a lot more than simply a proportional system to it (for one there is a 5% minimum for getting into parliament), there are laws and rules around voting such that the government doesn't deadlock because of a single party or complicated political spats

It's okay IMO but could be improved somewhat.
You're supposed to spread the word to your friends as an example, but it sounds like the lesson learned is to fly through the intersection even faster so you're harder to be stopped by the police.
I completely agree, it's kind of nuts. It was only maybe sixty years ago that nobody but the rich could really afford two cars, and yet here we are today where it's basically taken for granted as a basic requirement of life in much of America. Which is why I wrote it that way.
I'm sorry to ask but what do traditional interviews mean? Whiteboard coding? I saw it a lot around different posts here but I'm not sure
GitHub has not been a startup for a few years, and it's business model is more or less mature now.
Slow but not non-existent:

https://juliacomputing.com/case-studies/celeste.html

It's tough to crack the old school high-performance computing world, which is very slow to change programming tools, but Julia is the first and only high-level dynamic programming language to do it. Now that it's been shown to be possible to exceed a petaflop/second in Julia without having to write any gnarly, low-level C++ code, I suspect we'll start to see it happening more in the future.
You're correct that a corporation's biggest enemies are the workers who do all the work and create all the wealth of that corporation.

You're also correct that this is a victory for those workers and a defeat for the corporation.

Pfff, hardly any guarantee that the user of the iPhone is the thief. It only identifies the person who used the phone, immediately after the theft, and that they're the only person to have possessed it.

That person might have purchased it or otherwise received it, without being aware of it's origin. Lots of people buy secondhand/refurbished iPhones, and not all of the sellers are reputable, yet people still buy.

Oh well. At least the article's author can prove that the phone was once his, and he might be able to find where it is now, and maybe even get it back, however devalued it is by now.
I'm just amazed, not mad.
Sure, it's an obvious hypothesis. I just have a problem with reporting it like it's proven.

This appears to be from April 2017. Do we know how it was resolved?
I don't think people appreciate how much effort Google does to minimizing cookie leakage. It's good security and privacy hygiene, and it also speeds requests - transmitting sizable cookies isn't free, and takes up time, especially when you're paying by the millisecond.

This is why there are various different domains for static content, domains for user content (googleusercontent.com), domains for certain cloud services, etc. Protections against XSS and cookie leakage is taken very seriously.
You could still have that DNS server use an upstream DNS over HTTPS or other encrypted channel that unifies traffic, which has the effect of anonymizing.
Why would they do that? employers could still spy on you before the data gets on the tor network...

> uniting the far left Green party with a libertarian party. Not surprisingly the quasi-communists and Ayn Randians couldn't agree on anything and that attempt failed, but it goes to show how strange proportional representation can get

Those characterizations have very little to do with the actual positions of those parties, so it's no wonder it seems comical to you.
Neither is going to happen.

I'm not going to call it EcmaScript.

I'm not going to call it GNU / Linux.
I wonder if there's a correlation between American debt decreasing due to poor support for retired workers. Americans are wising up to the fact they need to save for their retirement since pensions are rare nowadays.

I'm not familiar with the work structure in those other countries, but guessing there's a far better support structure for retirees compared to the US.
You seem to ignore my point about the collective good. By definition measuring happiness is measuring feelings. Rule by emotion. When has that ever worked out well?

If closer to personal preference is better, shouldn't direct democracy - absolute majority rule - be the ideal? But it's clearly not the case, at least not in any sizeable country.
I said dealing with these mega corporations per se. This in no way suggests making special laws for a few companies.

If the entire world currently agrees that a handful of companies are The Problem, then there should be some means to go after said handful of companies and get them to stop being The Problem without creating blanket laws negatively impacting the entire world, especially smaller organizations.

Dealing directly with a problem company usually involves charging them under existing laws (anti-monopoly laws?) and things like that. It usually does not mean making unenforceable laws that name them by name or define things in a Jim Crow style that clearly targets them in specific and that is unlikely to stand up in court.
Here's a great article that talks in depth about this issue. The key point seems to be that CPUC approved a lot more natural gas power plants than required and have to let the Utility companies operate them.

Personally I couldn't care less about whether Google innovate or succeed or whatever. I just care that when I bother to invest (time) in a service it sticks around. If it's not a companies core service/product then it's not worth the effort. Google have demonstrated this more than most. They're at the bottom of the list.
> we have an overabundance of "green" energy here in California, yet energy prices are through the roof, we are looking at potential, rolling blackouts this summer, and we have to sell excess power to other states each month. why?

You're absolutely right.

Here in Marin county, you can opt in to using renewable energy, which my wife and I have. The public renewable utility rate is significantly cheaper than the standard PG&E rate. However, I am forced to pay more than the actual cost that the public renewable utility charges, because -- due to California state law -- my electric bill comes from PG&E, who -- despite not making the electricity -- has responsibility to charge the consumer. Of course, PG&E charges a 'convenience and distribution' fee that eradicates the difference in pricing between the renewable resource and their own electricity. Note that, if I opt in to using PG&E generated electricity, they kindly 'waive' the fee. Thus, despite the renewables being cheaper, I do not get the benefit as the consumer.

I have contacted my state senator and representative, and they sent me back a form e-mail about how they are 'standing' up to PG&E. Give me a break.... this is something that is easily legislated.
Oops, crowd -> crows. It's about the crows.
Still hoping for some kind of integration between iPad + Pencil and macOS. (I think it was vaguely rumored last year.) It would be so amazing for art. Not holding my breath, though.
Long term investment is speculation if it's predicated on an economic system that requires infinitely increasing growth on a completely finite planet with diminishing resources and no clear guarantee that we can fix any overshoot by going interplanetary in a cost-efficient way, or that technology will always magically step in to create enough new efficiencies to further exploit the resources that are present.
How about the following?

"Sure, we do use the precompiled binaries. We can even prove it because they have the same hash, and our procedure fails if they don't"

How you obtained your binary is immaterial, if you can prove it's the same as the audited one. Surely regulatory people would accept that?
Time to spin up that Gitlab instance, I guess.
I have the opposite opinion. I think every few months I see an interesting feature being added that are slowly making github a better platform. Just for the last few months we've seen a lot of improvements for Enterprise, improvement to gitHub pages, saved replies, team discussions, security alerts. I love the pace they have to release meaningful improvements.
Powerpoint was a purchase. Hotmail was another one. Frontpage, Visio, Navision, Skype, Linkedin. They’ve had quite a few which were pretty successful.
The non-financial side benefit - rem0te work is mentioned on your website, could you please clarify about this?
Well, fighting poverty also grows the economy and number of brains available for research in the future. Today we are bringing people out of poverty for good, much charity isn't money in a bottomless pit.

The pit has a bottom as evident by the very realistic goal to end extreme poverty by 2030.

Still basic research is important, because it has such a long tail. Just saying both approaches have validity and will bring massive progress.
Could paint over it, low tech solution.
Hyperlocal advertising is the space that tries to gather up the long tail as the efficacy of mainstream adtech is questioned.

Ad money is dominated by spray-and-pray big name brand awareness whose correspondence to conversions is opaque, but most of online adtech is about tracking metrics for particular targeted ads, and big buyers are frustrated about their opaqueness and questioning their value [1]. Then there's the long tail of everyone else, from a small band to a local restaurant, who are just trying to get their names out there, but lack the clout to lobby Facebook's ad policies.

This hyperlocal advertising is what many Facebook ads have been tending towards. It's only natural that Google would try to corner as much of it as it can, with services that are more content-driven than Maps.

I have (the now older) XPS 13 with Ubuntu 18.04 and it's awesome. The infamous coil whines were a bit of a bummer but since upgrading (from 17.10) to 18.04, I haven't heard it again ...
I wonder when the day will come when we admit that we have to call the Web "Googlenet".
You're right, it's been so long since I used emacs I forgot it's a thing. Vim does it too, I think, but I only use vim to quickly edit a file.
Anecdotally, I have never faced a rolling blackout in 10 years of living here. And we generate excess energy, so would be surprised if this happens.
For the (relatively common) use case of managing a mixed Windows and Linux server environment, the winning strategy these days seems to be to run your preferred Linux flavor inside a VM on a Windows host. In this scenario, WSL has been very useful for situations where I just don't want to fart around with the full VM. Now that Windows does SSH natively, I don't really have much need for it anymore.
He lost me at the beginning. Paraphrasing Wolfgang Pauli, “That is not only not right; it is not even wrong.” Certainly much of math was born from science. But the notion of pure mathematics goes back to antiquity.
This is my point put the money into a cleaner grid. Make the near future NOW! This benefits all citizens not just those that want buy a car.
Doing a simple search only shows bogus data; rather than directly calling out the poster it's a bit more polite to ask them how they came to make that statement.
If I guaranty 5 million dollars in 3 years for somebody that can go without a car for so long, half of america would find a way.

It's just a matter of priority and way of life, with constraints yes, but a choice none of the less.
I hope that a tragedy like MS acquiring GitHub does not happen, ever...
As long as you can configure DoH, you can setup your own resolver and do what you want. In the end DoH will probably eventually be an option in the OS level, or not for lighter OSes. I think having it at the application layer is to add a nudge in the OS developer direction.
In "moral crusades" like this, it is often a very vocal minority that dominates the discussion. I seriously doubt that it was a majority of Google employees who objected to this.
I did similar calculations but using a different methodology.

Cheapest ZipCar is $8/hr and has the same cost structure (i.e. ZipCar also pays for car, insurance, gas, maintenance etc.).

So let's generously assume it's $10/hr.

That's 3x cheaper than taxi or Uber so they instantly kill taxi/Uber where they operate.

Assuming an average in-city trip of 15 minutes, that's comparable to $2.5 ticket for a bus in SF.

Obviously, an autonomous car can take up to 4 passengers, so if you agree to share, the price can be 2-3x cheaper. That kills buses where they operate.

And long term (5-10 years out) when they operate at scale, they should be cheaper than ZipCar (say $5-$6 per hr).

Why?

Because their cars will have higher utilization.

Because they'll all be electric and electricity is 3x cheaper per mile than gas even if you buy for utilities (as opposed to building your own solar farm nearby to supply most of the electricity)

Because insurance cost will be dramatically lower (near zero).

Because they'll buy them in millions so cost savings due to manufacturing scale.

Because they'll be constantly re-designing cars to make them cheaper to make and more reliable as opposed to trying to guess what color or form factor will be popular tomorrow with humans or making high-performance version.
> But this has to stop at some point...

That's my point. We don't need to get into infinite recursion because we cannot know as humans the ultimate origin of anything. The best we can do is to try to find out the local and natural intelligent creators acting in nature within the laws of nature. Those are the things we can know. So, for instance, we can ask those questions, as you mention, Did someone come from another world? Is the creator smaller in scale than human body? Is the creator larger in size than the human body? And let's not forget that the human body is a symbiotic organism. It's a combination of different organisms living as symbionts. Which means that they were independent life forms in the infinite depths of time. These are the interesting questions for me. Trying to explain transformations with the word "evolution" explains nothing. It's like saying "sleeping pill will put you to sleep." Nothing is explained.

But I understand that this is a very sensitive topic for many people. These are just my own opinions.
Would nesting groups meet your needs?

For example...

service_requests@ (group)
-> operations@ (group)
-> user1@
-> eng-support@ (group)
-> user2@

Then sending an email to service_requests@ would send the email to both user1@ and user2@.
For some reason they're listed on this page:

Is this a great example? I tried to google around to see what the postmortem was on the founders discussed in that article, and it seems like _not only_ was the punishment a slap on the wrist, and no larger sentencing arose (at least per my brief search, feel free to correct me, I'd regain some faith in humanity if I were wrong).

Not only that, but the more vocal of the two founders is now running for a senate seat.

If anything you seem to be supporting the unfortunate conclusion that there _is_ no real recompense. I tend to agree with the OP, even as an american, the structure of the law seems unequivocally built to support those with the power to navigate it. Bernie Madoff was the exception, not the rule, and by his own words, even this may not be the level of punishment one might wish (re: imprisonment) "They call me either Uncle Bernie or Mr. Madoff. I can't walk anywhere without someone shouting their greetings and encouragement, to keep my spirit up. It's really quite sweet, how concerned everyone is about my well being, including the staff […] It's much safer here than walking the streets of New York."[0]

Maybe a class action lawsuit - not for money - but for the promise of open sourcing and leaving some funding for any future projects that have customer support, but that they want to squash without adequate reason.

External testicles in domesticated animals are essential. Easy to snip off. Ever tried ploughing a field with oxen that haven't been gelded? Not fun. It's also a very convenient way to manage the breeding of livestock, ensuring some control of who breeds with whom.

(It's also convenient to have external easy-to-remove testicles when one wishes to form certain choirs.)
My wife somehow became our neighborhood's leader or whatever it's called on NextDoor. Half the stuff is garbage like that. The other half is upper-middle class adults behaving like spoiled children.
Well, I'll operate under the assumption that EU posters know EU governments better than I do :)

If that's the case then I suspect you'll see fewer companies panicking over time. It may just take an adjustment period for companies to realize, "Oh, this legislation isn't actually filled with hidden land mines."
Interesting. Although the mobile gold-rush is considered over, I think there's still real potential in 'hyper-local' realtime information. There are some examples of this--Waze for traffic, the 'Citizen' app for crime--but there's so much more that can be visible. Power outages, roads needing repair... of course it's (relatively) easy to make an app that tracks all this but the tough part is giving people a reason or incentive to post the information.
It does not matter if your EV has 300 miles of range. Unless you want to be limited to a radius half of your max range. Otherwise, you need chargers wherever you need to go, as I assume you would like to do more than one way trips.

There are far too few chargers, specially outside the bay area (and even in the Bay, considering the number of cars already in the streets). EV will be more convenient than ICEs when you have both high range + charger availability.
California has a total population (census 2010) of about 37,000,000 [1]. And about 87% of those are citizens [2]. CA has 55 electors, so roughly 585,000 citizens per elector.

Wyoming has a total population (census 2010) of about 563,000. And about 98% of those are citizen. WY has 3 electors, so roughly 187,000 citizens per elector.

Citizen in WY have roughly 3x the voting power as citizen in CA, due in large part to a system designed to appease slave-holding states 200 years ago.
