The irony here is that this integration addresses the heart of the complaints in this thread.

People don't want to have to update whatever project management team their management uses.

Good News! That's why this integration exists.

1. This integration lets developers work on their code while automatically sending updates Jira so they don't have to.

2. When you create a commit, it can automatically transition a Jira issue so you don't have to go to Jira to do it.

3. Use smart commits to update the status in Jira, leave a comment, or log time without leaving your command line or GitHub.

4. When you create a branch in BB or GH it will automatically transition the issue in Jira so you don't have to.

5. When you merge a pull request in GH and BB it will automatically transition the issue in Jira so you don't have to.

6. Linking Jira Software to GitHub lets you see branches, commits, and pull requests right on the Jira issue.

7. Now everyone, even those pesky managers and program managers can see the status of work without asking you to take your headphones off, “bumping” their email in your inbox of “pinging” you for the 10th time in Slack. They can see your status right from the board without even clicking into the issue.
8. Search for Jira issues based on related GitHub information, such as open pull requests.

> Telltale games wasn't a very innovative company.

based on the article, it seems like most of the telltale developers agreed with you. they cited previous management's unwillingness to deviate from previous successes as the largest source of creative stagnation. the article implies that the newer CEO was making big, positive changes in this area but that it was too little too late for the company.
Huh, that's interesting because introspection tells me it's the opposite for me. When I'm in my safe zone is when I can comfortably be rational and calm almost all the time. If I ever said something rash or that I didn't mean it would probably be when someone engages me and makes me feel uncomfortable in real life, never over the internet.
Python, both the language and community, are very strong proponents of OOP. While you can do a lot of more functional stuff, esp. w/ functools, the community at large tends to discourage that. "Never use map/filter" is a weirdly common phrase among pythonistas. So this, like most python-driven examples, is doing things in a pythonic way.

Coming from the R side, I tend to prefer structures & functions as well, but if I tried to write Python that way I'd be wary about showing that code to anyone more entrenched in the Pythonic way of thinking.
But the subtler point is that your index fund is mostly invested in a few big companies,plus noise. AAPL ($1T) itself is 3% of the entire US stock market ($30T).

This is pretty messed up. DRM for hardware. I just picked up a couple SGI workstations earlier this week, both built in 1996. If SGI had implemented some DRM like this, it would be quite the uphill battle to even make use of these old systems that often require replacement parts to get running. There's no excuse to tolerate these harmful practices.

I have a collection of some 20+ classic Macs, all of which I have performed some degree of hardware replacements/repair on. No way I'd have access to some Apple "authorized repair technician" services as an enthusiast collector who just likes old computers.

Then there's the family members and friends whose computers I fix as a favor -- guess they can shell out $hundreds, instead of buying a cheap replacement part and having it installed for free, right? Assuming Apple even still produces the respective component! :\

It doesn't seem that unreasonable for waymo to expect that car companies would want to sell cars - that's what Honda has been doing for the last 60 years.
I think you are oversimplifying.

'Tech' as a commonly applied label typically involves widgets and software. Not large manufacturing and supply chains that involves world trade, weather, regionalism, human resources in the hundreds of thousands and years of planning to work with many similarly configured partners.

Tesla for all it's glory isn't the greatest endorsement for Tech as some (not necessarily you) like to claim and I like Tesla.

Everyone that says car companies don't move fast seems to be picking and choosing the facts that suit their own bias towards 'traditional' industries.

Car companies only look slow on the outside, but they really aren't when you look at the totality of their products scope.

For example car companies go through millions of dollars in just testing alone with nearly every country operating their own testing center. They need to be weather tested in so many different environments, they need to meet regulatory hurdles that are different from state to state to State. It's just massive what goes into what they need to do just to get the right to sell their product in a region or country.

Yet they do all this with significant upgrades to models that are now coming nearly every 3 years. I remember when it went from 10 years to 5 years. Wow!

I remember when the assembly got so complicated that cars were squeaking due to the materials rubbing against each other. So in comes material science guys trying to get that sorted in all weather conditions.

I think Waymo is far more likely to be in the sidelines than people think, but we'll see; I could be wrong.

It's a fairly non-committal statement below a Reuters headline that is not borne out by the actual article. And it is not alone.

I think the BEAM languages "pure functions... well except for message passing" is perfect for concurrency. With haskell you have to use monads which are less convenient. And idiomatic BEAM defaults to actor model if you consider OTP to be "out of the box (you should)". Finally, pattern matching function guards are incredibly useful for parsing incoming messages that might be polymorphic.

Haskell is kind of designed to make programming as pure as possible and the BEAM was designed with concurrency as the first priority; it's "pure functional" to the point where its advantages (referential transparency) help concurrency and the impurities are the precise set of compromises you need to make concurrency easy.
sure, but beware if you want to export your data from google keep, it will be HTML and not easy to import to most other tools
The stock market is a prediction market.
It may affect the very source box you are using for package downloads. I bet it is allowed to go outside unrestricted. Funny you mentioned Docker, it is a security nightmare in itself.
Perhaps situations that are harder to count, such as botnets or bitcoin, would get closer.

However, even a thousandth of their scale is enough to demonstrate that decentralized scale is possible at the level where there can be economies (or diseconomies).

Google's scale was already huge even when they had merely "more than 10,000 servers" in the years prior to their IPO.
It is what you are saying, and exacerbated by the huge gap in power and control between elites/politicians and the average person. You have CEOs and politicians making decisions that ruin people's lives. With Twitter, people are suddenly put at the same level where they can speak back to power, directly and angrily.
Yes, sorry to be "that guy" as well, but it's voila ("voilà" if you want to be pedantic).

"Viola" either refers to a stringed instrument, or means "raped" in the sense "he raped" ("il viola"). So please don't use it as an interjection.
They took pains to say that this was happening with sub-contractors in China building motherboards in excess of what Taiwan could handle. So to build trust they can pull back on that extra manufacturing capacity and move it elsewhere maybe South Korea.

In either direction. Something we would all do well to bear in mind these days in the West.
It's not that you get one chance to do something like this, it's that there is one total chance to do something like this. After it's been discovered, it's much harder to do it again for everyone - so if you never do it, then you don't get the benefit and Russia or USA or someone else does that and gets the benefit and you still lose the ability to do it in the future.
I recently blogged about an alternative to contributor license agreements without any single foundation or BDFL, that cover relicensing of past code to respond to license issues:

https://writing.kemitchell.com/2018/09/30/Contributor-Counci...

I think the fundamental legal mechanism of cross-licensing is correct, but the quorum-vote-like solicitation mechanism needs more thought and feedback.
Twitter should start placing a visual marker on Tweets that have been posted via their API. Maybe a yellow exclamation mark around the same location as the blue check mark (which is for verified accounts).
How people poisoned politics.
The ABA actually endorsed him, and that carries a great deal more weight than what a bunch of law professors say. Again, partisans being partisan.

Maybe you've never been accused of something like what Judge Kavanaugh was accused of. In general, his defense was relatively rational and composed for what it was. And the comments about the democrats and the Clintons was probably correct -- he knows where all the bodies are buried on that front having been in the Bush White House.

The whole thing has been a democrat hatchet job from the day he was nominated.

I'm not a democrat or a republican by the way -- I think in general most of the people in the government from both parties tend to be power hungry narcissists.

Even if we classify Manic as a prestige show, what else form Netflix fits into this category? The Crown. In Europe Netflix has Better Call Saul (and labels it as a "Netflix Original") but I don't think it should count. And then what?

It seems to me that Netflix specialises in 7/10 shows. Solid and fairly forgettable productions.

I spend 5-7 hours a week watching TV shows and I find I have zero use for Netflix. It has almost that I want to watch if my goal is to watch the best thing I can find for an hour a day.
> With all of the well-known open source licenses, it's generally clear to the author up front what rights they are granting. With CLAs they are usually fuzzy by design

Not my experience at all.

> Oracle is practically a textbook example of why this is usually a bad thing for developers/users.

What would have happened differently there if people had contributed under an MIT license instead of signing a CLA?
Yeah I mean people are all different. I know what you mean about feeling calmer behind the keyboard, something about seeing what I'm about to say often makes me tone it down or rephrase it.

Not everyone goes nuts behind the wheel of a car either. But the thing is when the potential mob is the entire national or world population it doesn't take a very large percentage of the mob going "road rage" to turn the thing violent, you know what I mean?

It's like the whole "yelling fire in a crowded theater" problem.
The Bloomberg article says suspicions were raised during a routine audit that resulted in a deeper audit.

The routine audit could have uncovered hackers in Elemental's corporate network doing things like ensure certain machines go to certain customers, etc.
Excited about this. Lets you put GUI over any USSD-based service without having to talk to telcos. Straight over-the-top play.
If you fast forward, and assume that at some point most cars would be self driving, then you can see why Honda would want to sell more than just the dumb parts.
The schema aspects of this idea are hard for me to grasp.

How would the database engine efficiently resolve any references to the embedded relation ?

I'm also having trouble understanding how your INSERT statement would even work - is the firstQuery being inserted being treated as hierarchical data where every single relation attached to every single row has its own schema/structure ? Or is the structure fixed in the CREATE TABLE statement so that you can't use just any relation, but rather have to use a relation that conforms to the structure defined in the CREATE TABLE statement ?
Apple, at least, claims they do[1]: "As a matter of practice, before servers are put into production at Apple they are inspected for security vulnerabilities and we update all firmware and software with the latest protections."

Waymo presumably already has ways of modifying vehicles used for autonomous driving tech development, perhaps with big cheap batteries.

But for a self driving taxi service fleet, you wouldn't want your customers rolling around in vehicles with a big cheap truck battery bolted inside it.

You need a battery that is well integrated into the vehicle, for safety and to optimize the customer experience.
Was there a time when politics wasn't full of poison? By the end Thomas Jefferson hated George Washington so much he refused to attend his funeral.

And that's just 242-year history of America, you can go back to Rome, Greece or Ancient Egypt and see thousands of years of vitriol inside any large human collective.

Modern tools could do a better job, sure. Twitter, FB, YouTube and the rest could use some kind of reputation systems, which at least provide a gradient of user interaction instead of just blacklisting.

But politics have never been pure, it's a myth. Don't blame communication platforms (although again, they can do better), blame the humans that use them.
I wonder if Apple will ever get into the server market, even indirectly through licencing their cores.
Good advice. Listen to this man. (I'm also Turkish.)
At least with ebay its clear what product you are getting and from which seller from the listing. There aren't a dozen counterfeit products from various sellers and SKUs lumped together with combined reviews.
Nobody sued over numerous public companies claiming "we've never heard of PRISM", despite it turning out to be a lie. You can't get sued for complying with a government order...
This is an incredible story. In short: Denmark automatically withholds taxes on dividends. If you’re a foreign shareholder, you can apply for a refund on the withholdings. But they weren’t actually checking whether you owned the shares.
My elders do not understand english either and requires fully localized software.

I do not know about google or windows or apple offerings, I stay away from both. Does facetime allows to videocall outside of apple walled garden or is it an apple only feature ?
As approximatively 1 person own an iphone among people they stay in touch with, this would be an issue.

I gave my elders linux computers more than 10 years ago, they are 92 and 93 years now, and not a malware issue once.

Claiming that apple popularity is based on merit alone and not on marketing is quite the extraordinary claim, so allow me to ask for some fact supporting this claim.
Yes, angrily. It's a channel that somewhat rewards anger, too, since the nasty tweet probably has a whole bunch of other people who "kind of wanted to say that" who will retweet and like, since it lets them get in on the screed without feeling fully guilty of saying it themselves.

And you know how it is with these things, when you see anything you wrote get retweeted a ton or liked a ton, it gives you that kind of thrill. So the angry voice gets a bunch of positive reinforcement.
Another equally valid frame is that you have a system designed by those same CEO's that explicitly encourages people to be as pissed off as possible, all the time, so their rage can be cynically farmed for clicks and ads.
It also barely agrees with reality. In a recently published survey [1, in Spanish], companies in one of Argentina's largest cities were asked about which IT professionals were required, and how many they would hire in the next 12 months. They answered that 61 blockchain would be needed in the next 12 months, but the number of open positions right now is... 0. So everyone is planning on doing it eventually, but so far no one has actually coughed the money.

I read somewhere (can't recall where) that the fact that it's not that good was exactly why CS Lewis chose it. Even in his time it was considered "meh."

The thing is, Windows 10 is starting to look more and more like a Linux distribution. Half-assed and inconsistent UI, broken updates, etc.

I'm fine with this in Linux, because it's built by people who donate their time for free, and might not be experts in UX, etc. But seeing the same in a commercial OS that Microsoft wants you to pay for is unacceptable.
The article you just linked retracts itself by calling data collection "utter bullshit". It seems that your desire to attack Google overrode actually reading what you post.
What is likely: they connected their own flash in place of recovery flash, that was not soldered on on that particular board version, that for what that soic8 or tsop8 pad is on photos; the chip will boot from the recovery, but if someone were to read the main flash, it would output the correct content. Only if somebody specifically poked the recovery, would the bug be revealed.
Absolutely this too. There's a lot of money to be made from making people angry (see cable news). I don't know anyone who makes money calming the crowd down. Is there such thing as a social media mob therapist? :)

I have no special knowledge about this, but Chipworks is a well-respected Ottawa (Ontario, Canada) company that has been doing silicon-level reverse engineering and teardowns for a while. It looks like they're part of TechInsights now, but seems like the right kind of crew to be doing this.

> Totalitarianism is a political concept that defines a mode of government, which prohibits opposition parties, restricts individual opposition to the state and its claims, and exercises an extremely high degree of control over public and private life

He was unabashedly and indisputably, totalitarian. The fact that he lost power eventually, is irrelevant. Every type of leader, eventually, loses power.

Hell I spin and create narratives on Reddit all the time. Sometimes for fun, sometimes for intrigue to see how far I can get pushing some ironical bigoted thing to real people. However, with Poe's Law, I can never know if they are just playing along with me, or sincerely believe the bullshit I'm typing.
I think the attacks are real.

A year ago, Google announced their Titan firmware security chip[1], which would limit these kinds of attacks. I don't believe they designed and built this chip, and surrounding infrastructure, because of purely theoretical attacks.

Besides that, over the last couple years there has also been a lot of work trying to neuter the Intel ME, because of how dangerous it is. Another example is that Google had also done work to replace the EFI/Intel ME with a Linux kernel [2]. This has limited usefulness against the most recent attack, but it is related (since it's still a chip that has more privileges than the primary CPU).

I suspect that there are a very small number of people in these big companies who are aware of these attacks. It's hard for me to guess why the companies involved would deny that these exist.

I can’t remember who originally said this, but the problem with Twitter is that you think you’re engaging in jokey banter with your mates but random strangers are reading each tweet without context in absolute seriousness and judging you
Why would an integrity check show you anything different? It's all the same code running on the actual BMC, it'd be identical. That's the entire point of having an external package do all the malicious stuff -- reflash/dump/check will come up clean every time.

You don't need ownership to relicense. You just need a license which permits relicensing, which BSD does (as long as the new license is compatible, and they usually are).
