The regular VMware vSphere Hypervisor is free, and works on most hardware. You could go used, or check delloutlet.com. (sub $1k) It doesn't need high specs at all. The reason I mention is that usually you end up needing other small services. Virtualizing allows you to have a single box and add VMs as needed. It's also easier to setup carp/failover later if the system grows and you need redundancy. Running an ISP is 24/7 so being able to have full console access, and confidently reboot services saves late night trips. It's been a while so am not familiar with the current hotspot products.
I have access to the code. There is no more reliable reference. The source code is remarkably well organized and clearly coded and has massive amounts of unit tests.

QGIS is truly excellent. I'm a frequent ESRI ArcGIS user, but I'm pushing to put QGIS more in our workflow, including field work. And I use it for personal GIS projects as well.

As ESRI moves farther away from making useful products that can adapt to fit our workflows, and more into rent seeking, I move more parts of our process to QGIS, and port more of our custom python tools over.
We are very specifically on a topic about what facebook does, and what I was originally replying to you about was that I think your general findings are not particularly relevant when looking at facebook. You said this story is totally overblown because gender targeting isn't normally very accurate, but here it absolutely will be because a large number of people will accurately set this value on their own profile.

> I would never use Facebook's implementation of that target (if they're going based off of what's reported to Facebook) because it would completely exclude gift purchases across genders. It would leave a ton of money on the table and be a very stupid thing to do.

But we're not talking about gifts, we're talking about jobs.

> because any advertisers who rely on the accuracy of that attribute are stupid

But why would it be inaccurate for adverts on facebook for logged in facebook users?
Unmasking the mirai worm author (Krebs, Jan 2017)
No. In fact, Hell no. I’m not wearing a fitness tracker so my life insurance company can keep tabs on me. That is utterly ridiculous. Give me a physical and charge me more if you have to, but none of this big brother stuff
Although I haven't seen it, this seems to be an interesting documentary: This was a very motivated crew to build a case against Google and Facebook. If there is any sort of proof for their claims, they would had found it. If not, the documentary itself stands as proof against itself.

i disagree, Ben writes a really good account of growin up in the 'hood' and shares some unique socioeconomic perspectives from the descendants of ideological enemy, their grandfather being the founder of American Communist party, also being Jewish to add.

Rarely do autobiographies leave such lasting impression but the "Hard Thing About..." book was a really transparent look at Ben's humanity IMHO.

Usually I would not hesitate to share cynicism but I find Ben resonates better with people like me who also grew up in the 'hood' and are tryna make it.

Right. The person in question plead guilty to criminal tax evasion, an exceedingly rare charge. Nobody gets charged with tax evasion for reasonable but incorrect interpretations of the tax code. In this case the evasion was intentional, flagrant, and large.

I honestly don't understand why anyone uses GitHub for professional projects. It's inferior to not only GitLab but also Bitbucket.
If you seek professional, respectable counsel, and that professional, respectable counsel tells you the wrong thing, is "ignorant" even the right word? What exactly are you supposed to do in that case? Get a second opinion? When they conflict, get a third? Who's to say any of them will be right, if we're worried about correctness in the first place? How do you know when to stop? Even becoming a lawyer yourself isn't necessarily going to protect you, because you may well interpret the law incorrectly.

This is really a no-win situation.
This shouldn't be flagged, it is spot on.

Autism is the ADD/ADHD of the 'oughts. Overly diagnosed (come on, 1:55, really?), misunderstood (is the creepy guy who stares too much and never says anything a freak or is he autistic?), and often times used like a crutch by those who both want an easy out and/or don't want to take responsibility for their actions (oh, I have mild Aspberger syndrome and your offending me).

The notion of a "spectrum" is ludicrous too, how ever can we lump in someone who's a bit slow yet fully independent with someone like the above poster who's 8/10 year olds can't go potty on their own? This is a disservice to people on both ends of that "spectrum."
Ah, ok. I suppose that's still a useful thing to say about Rust std though. :)

It seems like a bit of a stretch to assume the idioms someone uses can reliably indicate their moral character. As with anything, granting people the most charitable interpretation of their actions can go a long way. Is the person using the term gyping actually showing their hatred for the gypsies? It's not impossible, but that's not a very charitable interpretation of their actions

The general rule for startups is to innovate in product space and not in the mechanics of running (and taxing of) the business. This will put a startup at the disadvantage of FAMGA. But that is only one of many disadvantages.

The irony of this CFO example is that the innovation was ethics, run it by a lawyer, and the conventional wisdom was unethical, to backdate the options. But irony notwithstanding, the law won out.

If your inner voice says you and your C corporation might be getting away with something then you should probably run that by a lawyer. If that something involves someone else not knowing something else (the essence of fraud) you definitely should run that by a lawyer or just follow the general rule.
Advocating the violation of labor laws is generally considered a bad look irregardless of the punishment be it jail or fines.
"I didn't know I was breaking the law" is not accepted as a defense because then defendants can simply always say they didn't know what the law was. It's true that this is more complicated for accountants, but presumably that's why we make them get licenses.

Did somebody made an analysis of life costs in the USA vs Europe ?

I am in my thirties so the money I am making since I have moved here is pretty great (I also could have gotten higher paying jobs in Europe though) but it sure looks like a lot of factors are counterbalancing this, including the shameful health care system (or its absence really), so even if I was not already planning on moving somewhere else in a couple of years, this would make me consider it.

Except it wouldn't be intentionally losing money. Long term fans are what make a band the most money - they buy tickets and merch, and albums (games, movies, etc). By cashing in on big gigs and maximizing the sales for those tickets an artist would potentially be giving up a lot more long tail revenue, and possibly killing their fan base altogether.

Maximizing long term profitability is often not the same as maximizing short term revenue.

>The only problem is that many people consider it to be "creepy".

That seems like an unfair characterization. The issue many have with the Everett Interpretation is that it relies on a fundamentally untestable existence of every possible universe in every possible state of being for the sake of conceptual tidiness. It's not unreasonable to apply Occam's razor and hold a measure of skepticism about this.

How different is the H3-VR from the spatial audio of the Zoom H2n?

I’ve got an H2n though mostly I’ve only been using it with line-in to record from my synth now and then, so I haven’t really used the spatial audio feature... so actually come to think of it I’m not quite sure why I am even asking :p Oh yeah, when I originally bought my H2n I did so because I wanted to get into field recording.

In the end I didn’t find many interesting things to record; traffic - boring, wind in the leaves in the forest - boring, birds singing - birds don’t sing much here, trains - marginally entertaining the first time I recorded a train coming to a stop.

I guess what I should be asking is: What sorts of sounds are you using the H3-VR to capture? And do you find any advantage in using the H3-VR instead of an H2n for said recordings?

It sounds like a voluntary discount at the moment--including some manual data entry--but after they make it tighter and more mandatory, I predict a new industry: gaming exercise programs.

At first, in order to spoof daily steps, maybe you can just throw the tracker into a clothes dryer or rock tumbler, or maybe inside your hubcap. If they want to see heartrate also, then I predict a device that you place against the tracker's IR sensor and blinks IR back at it, simulating a heartbeat. This would cost a few dollars in parts.

The next step of course is to simply spoof the tracker and upload directly to the company's internal API.

Not really, but a lot of that is related to how we prioritize features. We set out goals and initiatives each half-year (using Aha! internally) and ensure that the things we prioritize and build are aligned with our initiatives and will broadly benefit our customers.

This is a useful bit of knowledge, but to guard against people making irrational judgments about Accenture, it's important to note that (1) It was primarily Anderson's consulting divisions that went to Accenture, and (2) these large auditing firms have offices all over the US and world, and in these types of cases, it was really only a branch or two that were complicit in the fraud.

They pushed the envelope; made me build things that I didn't think I was capable to build.

Made "constant pressure": kicked asses to move things forward but it was not "exponential". If failed to reach a milestone in time, it was ok, shit happens, no big scolding etc. but it was made clear that the milestone would have to be reached one day, so better keep walking.

They were very smart in detecting early signs of burnout and stress. "Go gome and fuck the deadline, tomorrow is another day." In another instance: "It doesn't make sense for you to quit, take some days off and see a psychiatrist" [Diagnosed with depression, took medicine, improved.]

Fought for their commanded, shielded them from politics.

Personal integrity that transcended the job relation.
I got that. Which may be part of my issue.

Essentially: Put tech frat bro, white knight, and trapped woman in room. Turn time crank.

I generally have issues with stories that feature static characters (they feel contrived, no matter how well textured). And to me Ex Machina felt exactly like that, albeit using the concealing veil of delayed exposition to create an illusion of dynamicism.

To put it another way, if you knew everything the movie tells you about the nature of all the characters at the start of the movie, couldn't you have predicted the outcome from the beginning?

And if so, then what's really being said?

If we're looking at interesting statements in gender politics, I'd contrast it negatively with something like Stephen Universe.

Leadership in many old-line unions and democratic groups is been in sharp contrast with the wants and needs of constituent representation. The most obvious example of this is the recent teachers strikes which were 'wildcat' in that they occurred without formal union leadership blessing.
I figured this might be part of it, and appreciate your confirmation. I'm certainly not saying others should do this, but for me it's a good concrete incentive. The immediacy of the financial benefit is more psychologically motivating than the long-term benefit of a longer life, at least for me.

I know this is somewhat tangential to the story, but with now it looking like there will be a bunch of newly-minted billionaires in the burgeoning cannabis sector, I can't help but think of all of the (largely poor and minority) people whose lives were ruined by marijuana charges.

It's just kind of fascinating to me how we reserve the terms "drug dealer" mainly for (again, largely poor and minority) illegal drug sellers, but that very word "drug dealer" conjurs up more than illegality, but a real moral judgement that these are "bad people". But if you're rich and pulling on the levels of power to do it "correctly", you are a forward-thinking entrepreneur.

Not really sure what my point is in posting this, but just I guess as a reminder that how we even talk about morality is subtlely guided by the structures of society that are not "right or wrong" in and of themselves, but just how powerful people set things up to benefit them.
Sure, but what we know, we proved it, and what we don't know doesn't mean "God", it just means "we don't know".

Well as all insurance companies do, when it comes for them to repay you (or in this case those you asked to be paid when you die), if the amount is big they’ll try to verify that you haven’t cheated.

That’s where it will be hard for your loved ones to find out that they’ll finally get nothing.

This big brother stuff is outrageous by the way.
This is the path I took, as well as asking myself the question "Why am I here?" I choose to believe I am a created being rather than a product of random chance, which leads to "there is a God" to be a true statement and hence religion follows from that. I get that there is some comfort in increasing entropy and all things returning to dust. But IMO there is too much unimaginable complexity in so many things; the biosphere in which we live, the metabolic pahtways in our own cells, the spark that gives rise to consciousness in the standing waves of bio-electricity in our brains. Sure we've learned a lot but there's so much we don't, or may never know about the natural world.

Some would say we just haven't learned about those things yet. I claim some things are unknowable, indeed the science of computation is all about what's computable and what's not.

For myself, I chose to become Catholic as an adult. Catholics don't give a damn about "Creation Science" and other such nonsense. Georges Lemaître was priest who first proposed the Big Bang theory. The fact that the Church doesn't try to explain the how of creation is very appealing to me.
