> Literally no one, not republican or democrat, could care any less what they say unless they happen to align with their political ideology

You're projecting. People do care. Republican voters at large, don't, and consequentially think that nobody else does. This isn't a "but the democrats are the same!" kind of thing. That "smear machinery" you talk about was not there during Gorsuch's nomination. We're talking about someone who's not qualified to be judge, and if he were an ultra-liberal, he would not be any more qualified.

Please take a hard look at what you just said in your post and think about how crazy and indoctrinated you sound. You're literally dismissing what an ex-supreme justice has to say on the matter of who is qualified to be on the supreme court.

And yes I do understand the nonpartisanship of the supreme court. cf my comment here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18149174). But if it's nonpartisan, why is the GOP so intent on electing this guy, of all people? Not a more competent republican, not a more competent democrat, or independent. This guy.

Again I have to stress this: I have no horse in this race. If the US burns, it doesn't affect me in the slightest. I'm watching from the outside, how people fall for propaganda; kinda like you watch North Koreans fall for propaganda, because that's all they hear, all they see, all the time.

Be more curious and open minded... that either scares you (and that should make you think), or it doesn't, and if so, go for it. Be the north korean who takes the risk.
The consideration with open source licenses is often authorship credit / promotional. It's not terribly different than a band giving away MP3's of their music: maybe they want to share their music with the world, maybe they want you to buy a ticket to their concert, but they are getting something out of it and are free to give away something if they have the rights to do so.
There wouldn't be any weird outbound traffic; the attacker would use another cloud instance as a controller. They would use a US-based account (and IPs via VPNs) to control the controller.

They are getting you cheap and you should be aware that this is a common tactic in the UK. They know you will not know going rate/be willing to take a paycut to get into the UK so your best bet would be to (1) work out how much you care about being in the UK [i.e. are you willing to work for below market rate] and (2) find comparable other jobs and come back to them saying the market seems to say differently. Be aware London is hideously expensive so budget appropriately.
Yeah... I don't agree that prison time is appropriate but, I do suppose the sentence was not too excessive. I suppose for most people a couple weeks in the clink is better than the 1,000,000+ fines we were seeing for copyright infringement in the 90's. Although since this is criminal I guess he could still have civil liability.

Paramount Television is in the credits. It's tempting to think directing is easy until you read Orson Welles' memo on edits to Touch of Evil.

It would take longer to read his memo out loud than to watch the movie.
I think sure there is bragging in the world, but in my experience I have come to learn that most of it is in the head of the person judging you, or you judging the other person's intention. I'd say probably 90% of what people think is bragging is more likely simply misunderstanding or a difference in one's perception and / or misreading context of either party. Or even each party's difference in upbringing / understanding of or attention toward certain styles of etiquette.

The other 10% is probably legitimately what I would call bragging, none of which really tends to get under my skin.
Did you run it on MacBook when it was on battery? Might not get to the max TDP in that case. So it would be like 30W vs 4W, but it's also 14nm vs 7nm.

Anyway though, it's still _very_ impressive from Apple, but much more believable. Looks like they've got very good engineers working on it. I hope they can scale it to the laptop requirements.

The chapter used was http://www.mondopolitico.com/library/meinkampf/v1c12.htm according to the authors.

If you replace all mentions of Germans, Marxists, Jews and any other related details by appropriate counterparts, you can probably fit the template to any "us vs. them" narrative you want.

Of course the aversion to Mein Kampf is mostly due to Hitler's choice of "us" and "them" (EDIT: and the means used to fight "them", but they are not the focus of that chapter, as far as I can tell), so by rewriting the chapter they have also removed the reasons why it's taboo.

But most people who hear about this story are unlikely to consider whether the essence of Nazism is preserved in the rewritten version and will simply associate it with "feminazis".
The software that this article talks about is the big deal in this context. Having set up and run open caption systems for live theatre before I can say it can be really hard to do manually, so having software be able to do this effectively really is a feat.

I don't think it's a matter of open vs closed source, it's more a matter how many maintainers and contributors the projects has.

As most bigger projects (>3 maintainers) show, the more contributors the worse is the quality of the code, and logically the rate of bugs is higher.

Closed source projects typically have the best number of maintainers: 1-2. With open source it could easily degrade into a minefield, like with openssl, apache, linux, gnome, python, perl, ruby, node, ...

The claim is that a journal published a rewritten chapter of Mein Kampf and that journal is therefore bad.

I don't think that is a reasonable argument. It depends on what the chapter was talking about. If it made a big point about Jewish conspiracies and keeping the American people ethnically pure then that is a problem. If it was 1,000 words complaining about vision-less politicians then what is the issue?
That said I use an iPhone, use Linux for work, and Windows at home. So accessing the OneNote when I am not home has been difficult.

It shouldn't be, as there's an iPhone client, a Windows client, and you can use the web version for Linux. I have my complaints about OneNote, oh I've got complaints. But cross-platform isn't one of them. I don't have a personal notebook that use much anymore, but I've got one for a local non-profit that I work with, and a couple for work, all of which are accessible anywhere I have a connection.

That said, I just use vimwiki and Apple's Notes/Reminders apps. I've used OneNote since it was an internal Microsoft build running on my Toshiba Portege Tablet PC, but instead of adding features that have (IMO) been needed for over a decade, it looks like they'll be removing functionality in the next release. So it's vimwiki for anything remotely complicated, and Apple's apps for the day-to-day "remind me to buy cat food" stuff.

vimwiki, which means you better be using vim, isn't a text version of OneNote, but it's close enough. And in a lot of respects I find it less annoying than OneNote's quirks. Project management, daily log, work notes, things that could use bullets and mulit-level outlining and the like. Export to HTML if it needs to be printed. As there doesn't seem to be any kind of iOS client, I might write one of these weekends when I'm bored. But I dump the wiki files to iCloud, so I can get to it from work or home, and if I were desperate I suppose I could view the raw files on iOS.

Apple's stuff I use mainly in conjunction with Siri. "Hey, Siri, remind me at 8:00 tonight to pay the light bill". Quick, one-off stuff I don't want to forget and would like a reminder for later. No heavy, project-oriented stuff goes in there.
> Another way to look at it is that the hardware has a very efficient word-level message-passing interface built-in, via shared memory. Why not take advantage of it?

Because shared mutable state is the root of all evil, or at least very difficult to reason about. Better to have clear owners for all state; if you need to conduct multiple operations on the same data you should move the code to where the data is rather than sharing the data between different processing units (this has long been a truism of distributed system design; modern multicore processors behave much the same as distributed systems if you zoom in enough, and the same techniques are appropriate).
20-year-old court filing comes back to haunt Qualcomm in FTC antitrust dispute
Well, I'm guilty of that, but it's because I don't assume people actually know the specific company I work at, or the university I went to. Even if the latter is generally deemed "prestigious", in the end, only a small set of people know it, so it's a generally useless precision.

Admittedly, if you work for a let's say a GAFA, you can probably safely assume people know the name. But for let's say MIT, I'd very curious to know which percentage of the us population actually know the name and attach it to academic excellence.

Based on your being in the Bay Area, I feel your problem may actually be competition, and you should apply to employers that don't look as trendy, don't offer as many perks, or are earlier stage startups and that are more likely to be a little more desperate.

For onsites employers will invite often a bunch of people (give themselves opportunities) and they always, always have the secret hope to get someone who is really overqualified for the job. In a hot market it's likelier they do.

Otherwise, often in onsites the questions asked will be more free-form (including "do you have any questions") and it's expected that the candidate will show curiosity and knowledge outside their narrow range of expertise. For example, if asked something you don't know, say "I don't know, but if I had to do it at work, I would find out through doing X". (Something that has also worked for me is straight up asking the interviewer. "I don't remember if a left join or inner join is better in that case though. For my personal education, which do you think?") You need to look like a self-starter for most onsites, and that behavioral test is more important than the answers to the exact questions.

Interviewers tend to telegraph (especially in person) the answers they want. So if you're asked how you would design a component, and the interviewer looks impatient and says "hmmm, what about X though?" or is constantly asking you follow up questions, maybe fidgeting, it means they have a specific answer in mind you haven't given. And in my experience in that case, you can't just stick to your previous line of thought when that happens. You can either "throw things out and see what sticks", where you start detailing the suggestion that generates the best nonverbal feedback, or you can refuse to play the game and say look, I'm feeling I would do X because of my experience with Y. It looks like you have a specific answer in mind that was maybe informed by a different experience. Do you want to share it and we can talk about my thought process?" (This only works for open ended questions)

>> As they say, not all open source is FOSS

> This isn't true - you mean "not all open source is copyleft".

Yes it is, and I'm not sure the commenter does. Software may be free but not open-source, and it may be open-source but not free. The term "free and open-source" signifies both.

> This is also not true. You should review the open source definition:

> https://opensource.org/osd

That is not the definition of open-source (or even "open source"), a common term for software the source code of which is available; it is the Open Source Definition, a copyrighted work published by The Open Source Initiative.

Contrary to the confusing rhetoric of the Open Source Initiative, they have no claim on how anyone uses common words in the English language like open and source. Putting the two together is trivial. Open-source is an adjective referring to the fact that that source code is available. It need not refer to some particular organization's ideology.

China was never really a totalitarian dictatorship under Mao either, he mostly got forced out of power by the rest of the communist party in 1959 after his great leap forward reforms resulted in millions dying. He never really regained power except in a sort of spiritual sense. There is a lot of complex political history in communist China.

Its most certainly incorrect to compare Mao with Xi.

Windows.

One reason the world is so screwed up in 2018 is that people think they have to get everything for free.

Thus "your smartphone" is really an extension of other people's brands. It's not a tool to control your environment but a way sinister forces in the environment control you.

I like Linux for certain things but since you don't pay for it you influenced by the priorities of those who do pay: IBM, Google, the corporate customers of Red Hat.

Since you do pay for Windows and you do have a choice, Microsoft is working for you and there is an incentive to make the OS better.

There are objective measures, but how do you connect those objective measures to the price? In other words, how do you decide that a certain P/E ratio is a good objective measure, and counting the number of napkins in the company cafeteria is a bad objective measure?

In the end, it’s just another layer on top of the speculation that the price will come down in the future.

Honda had an existing partnership with GM to develop fuel cells. The Detroit automaker has its Chevrolet Bolt EV in showrooms and has developed a battery pack that will be used in 20 new EVs globally by 2023. In June, the companies announced a deal that would have Honda using GM’s cells and battery pack. GM’s battery not only had good range, but by working together the two automakers figured they could lower costs.

The thing about companies like Honda and GM -- they have a lot of momentum. That means they aren't likely to be on the forefront of innovation, but when they turn towards a new target, they will hit with massive resources and established global production capacity that a start-up can only dream of.

My point is that Amazon or the buffet owner will not be brought down by a few customers who are a net loss to them shipping wise. They have already done the math.

The timing of telling might be as important as the doing. If, for example, someone asks about X and you did X three months ago, and you only tell them now, after they mention it, you might put it into their heads "holy shit, this person did X, which I thought was hard, and either forgot about it, or forgot to brag, wow..."
>One person familiar with the talks said that Waymo wanted Honda to supply electric vehicles -- an area where the automaker is just beginning to establish itself.

You don't have to redesign the BMC. Just repackage them with additional dice to take over I/O pins as needed.
I can see your point of view, though one nitpick: the GPL doesn't prevent shenanigans any more than an MIT license. With a CLA, the owners can relicense the code as a non-open source license. With both MIT or GPL, you retain the rights to develop the previously released code.

It's the FSF's commitment (mentioned upthread) to not do that which arguably makes it safe to sign a CLA with the FSF.
They also write:

”This also gives us a great piece of context for Samsung’s M3 core, which was released this year […] Here the Exynos 9810 uses twice the energy over last year’s A11 – at a 55% performance deficit.”

It appears this has something to do with folder redirection and doing folder redirection to OneDrive. One of the workarounds might be to install the new OneDrive manually before updating.
It seems to me that Waymo is following a model similar to Android albeit charging for it instead of giving it away for free. Anyone with basic understanding of technology knows that its not a sustainable model, in the long term. I wouldn't blame Honda for thinking for itself.
