8 Proven Tips (and Skills) to Manage Your Time Properly
Yes, graphs have been around for ages. They're as old as trees! ;-)

And you're right, first-year intro courses present graphs as matrices, it's usually the first graph representation you learn.

However, historically that's not how graphs have been represented in commercial or open-source databases due to the computational complexity and impracticality of supporting different architectures. Many PhD research papers over the years have been about the task of creating one-off implementations for the new hardware of the day.

For an overview of GraphBLAS in the context Heterogeneous High-Performance Computing (HHPC) systems running on NVIDIA GPUs and Intel Xeon Phis, see the 2015 talk Scott McMillan (https://insights.sei.cmu.edu/author/scott-mcmillan/) gave at the CMU Software Engineering Institute:

Graph Algorithms on Future Architectures [video] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sIdS4cz7-4

The figure cited by Scott McMillan in the CMU video is that each new hardware architecture implementation requires about 10,000 lines of code for BFS, and that's just one algorithm. The GraphBLAS standard makes this problem go away.

Furthermore, general on-demand access to GPU and TPU accelerators in cloud data centers just now became a thing. GraphBLAS will make it possible for non PhDs to run graph algos on clusters of accelerators in the cloud at supercomputer speeds.

Having the power of a Graph 500 (https://graph500.org) supercomputer at your fingertips and the ability to tap into that power on demand...well that's new! :-)
And kinda crazy cool too, don't ya think?

P.S. A few years back, Jeremy Kepner did a mini-course on D4M (the precursor to GraphBLAS). The videos and material are on MIT OCW...

Is there really a difference? I know an acquaintance that published a novel they worked on for a few years. They didn't share any numbers with me but they were clear, they made no money. I assume there are thousands of people trying to sell their novels, and a tiny minority succeed in making (big) money.
Perhaps, if you make it black-on-white and if your diplay is not glossy. Even using a classic gray-on-black terminal becomes hard when the sun shines in my window (I have curtains but not thick enough, I'd rather install jalousie but some members of my family resist this for aesthetic reasons) while I actually love sunlight and fresh air and could enjoy working outdoors during sunny days if only the display would stay readable.

It seems almost impossible to reliably backdate articles, especially if supposedly original domain name wasn't even registered at the time the supposed copy was posted.

The only scenario I could think of is claiming Google didn't index the original because it was blocked by robots.txt. Apart from that, how could Google not know the original date of publication?

I guess Google doesn't have systems in place to do this verification and they just remove from the SERPS anything and everything that has a DMCA violation, just or otherwise.

Another scenario I've witnessed myself is someone using a copyright free image (Unsplash) and then someone else claims a violation, saying they are the actual copyright holder and it was fraudulently posted on Unsplash by a third party. Google removes your homepage from serps, traffic tanks, business ends and there's no way you can even fight the decision. In the end who knows who's the actual copyright holder?

combatting this doesn't require browsers - you can have a passwordless login mechanism (like email links!).

Or, if browsers do indeed want to combat issues such as these, we'd need support for client-side certs (so you can login using a key-pair!), rather than username/password.

Or, rely in a tool like lastpass to consistently enter the credentials (which, presumably, will check the domain first and if it doesn't match, won't let you put the credentials in).

My problem with the studies described at the beginning is with this conclusion:

Even after the evidence “for their beliefs has been totally refuted, people fail to make appropriate revisions in those beliefs,” the researchers noted.

My understanding, from the descriptions in the article, was that it was not the beliefs were _refuted_, it was just that what they were told originally was not true. The subjects had no reason to believe the latter assertion above the former.

Facebook Says Breach Affected About 50M Accounts
Kid of. You'll still see a small minority of Uber drivers making money and a large percentage breaking even or losing money. It's like that in the real-estate market, where a small minority of agents take in most of the profit and a large number breaking even or losing money. This is also why you see trade groups frequently supporting policies to increase barriers for market entry. In real-estate this means higher and higher licensing standards. For example in Canada it costs around $6k and 3 years to get fully licensed [1].. which is crazy. But the real-estate lobby wants it even higher.

Sub-optimal sleep can absolutely ruin you, in the long run. E.g. it's been suggested that a significant portion (a third, IIRC, have to find that article) of chronic fatigue incidents are due to non-restorative sleep. Definitely a problem worth solving if you have it.

If you lie in bed awake once per week or so, you surely don't need to fret about it. It just must not become part of your lifestyle - if it does, get a checkup.

Kickstarter isn't as I hope people have realized by now a store with extreme preorders. Its not an act of bad faith to fail and its not shameful. A substantial portion of software projects fail and many burn through a lot more than 180k of investors money.

I hope that the author can learn from this and move on to more fruitful endeavors. You deserve to.
My observation is that when the real point of the argument is social pecking order bullshit where proving you got X fact wrong means you are evil (stupid, etc) and now deserve to be treated really terribly, people dig their heels in as the only possible defense against "agreeing" to be crapped on. If that's not what is at stake, people are vastly more willing to learn and grow.

Some social settings are better than others in that regard.
I'm truly excited about the possibility of incentivized content distribution. I'm not sure if Bittorrent + Tron is the way to go, but hey, let's see.

With that said, this video was the best example of burning a marketing budget I have ever seen. This video could've been done comfortably, in a studio, with soft lighting, at any time, but no.

They had to design and print not one but 3 custom hot-air balloons, drive the whole team out at a particular time, get multiple cameras to take multiple shots, with multiple mics, and stitch them all together in post-processing because they had the budget for it. It also wasted a few precious seconds of my life watching a hot-air balloon rise.

Even the presenter looked fairly jaded, as if thinking, "I could have done this talk on Google Hangouts in my underwear, not in this freezing weather cold".

It impedes market forces that normally act to add more housing. In the case of SF, fortunately, we don’t apply rent control to new construction. But you can’t build new, bigger buildings if you can’t remove your tenants from the existing one. You also can’t afford to, since you’re not earning rent proportional to the actual economic value of your land.

It reduces market forces that encourage optimal use of scarce resource. My neighbor in SF lives alone in his 3 bedroom apartment that he’s rented since 1990. If he paid market rate, all 3 bedrooms would be filled, 2 more people would be housed, and the overall housing demand would be proportionally cheaper.

It massively restricts mobility of tenants. Once you’re in on a “good deal” you can’t move. And reduced turnover creates all kinds of inefficiencies: people live farther from their jobs, don’t upgrade into nicer units over time (and thus free the cheaper/older units for those who are starting out).

It creates massive cost inequality for tenants and massive income inequality for landlords. As a tenant, one neighbor might be paying 50% or 100% or even 300% more than others with the same or similar unit, regardless of whether they can better afford it.

A property might generate 1/3rd the income of the building next door simply because the owner has tenants that have lived there for 25 years. Meanwhile costs of gardening, roofing, carpentry, plumbing and other labor have increased and thus one building is in disrepair. The building can’t be sold without the tenants, so the building is worth much less than the neighbors is due to random chance.

It places odd restrictions on lease terms, so that many go vacant unecessarily.
Because of rent control, if I own a unit built before 1979 I literally can’t make a contract with a tenant to lease to them for a year or two. Any term lengths I put on a lease are meaningless, and the tenant has nearly unlimited rights to live in my house for as long as they want.

If I have plans to use a unit for something else, upgrade it, etc I will likely leave it unoccupied.

> I think this comes down to low ceremony vs high ceremony

One of the most cited qualities of languages like Haskell are their "refactorability" - i.e. one can routinely rip out the guts of a 100KLOC codebase and replace fundamental data structures and functionality in order to implement new features in a couple of hours, no problem whatsoever.

In Rails, I'd do everything in my power to not touch any "important" code if I can get away with it, because no matter how good the test suite, it's still a test suite. It shows the existence of bugs, it doesn't prove their absence. Many people claim that's not a problem in practice, but I personally tend to avoid more fundamental code changes in dynamic codebases precisely because of that fact.

To drive that point home, I'd trust a Haskell codebase without a test suite more than a Rails codebase with an average to good test suite.

Also, it seems to me that "moving fast" is directly at odds with the topic at hand, upgrading Rails. If Rails allowed one to move fast, then surely upgrading Rails shouldn't take a year and a half, even in a big codebase?

> Spec driven design seems to offer some of the benefits of static typing with the flexibility of dynamism.

Definitely, though it's not a replacement for types. Also, the probably more important thing here is that Clojure is functional, making a whole class of bugs stemming from mutability and OOP impossible.

If you're planning to go down the Clojure/spec route, you might want to check out Ghostwheel [0], a lightweight DSL which seems to be gaining a lot of traction lately.

Sane DotFiles manager
I'm on the fence about that...

I have found around 90% of accounting products do this and no one snuffles or maybe all that money is going into hiding this fact and buying off "influencers".. ok I will shut up now ;-)
When to give up on your startup/product
Took a look at a lot of dotfile managers in the wild.

But:

* Ideally don't want to learn another language/tool to just manage dotfiles

* Setup a tool via a complex process to... setup my tools? Really?

* Why can't we use nice tools provided by git directly? They're all text files. Git manages text files very well.

So, SDF was born.

* No programming languages were invented.

* No extra dependencies, none! compile with go, throw binary in $PATH and you're all set.

* Straight up wraps git so you get all the git goodness.

SDF allows restoring your dotfiles as simple as:

$ sdf clone <URL to your repository>

$ sdf checkout .

I only scanned the article so perhaps I missed it but I can't see any mention of build processes and platforms to run the built artefacts on.

My experience of software development is that just having the source is close to worthless unless you also have some way of building and running it.

For instance I just downloaded Microsoft's WCF samples. Even with the instructions I am unable to use them because the instructions do not apply to the platform I am using (Win10 Home). If something current from a major supplier that is, presumably, interested in making it work doesn't go then what hope is there for something decades old that runs on an OS and hardware that no longer exists?
