I can't help out much, but I will give you this. If you enjoy making stuff, software engineering can be GREAT, and it sounds like you want to be making stuff again.
Is the idea that working on your “important goals” in the first few hours after waking is more effective an evidence based opinion?

I can’t imagine myself performing my best at any task I do the first two hours after waking, and that certainly seems to be the case for almost all of my colleagues too, if early AM meetings are any indicator.

The "grant permission just once" option on the web is really nice and I wish more platforms would include it (including extensions).

That and the ease that you can revoke permissions. No going into a separate settings window, just click next to the URL bar and everything shows up.
You're probably right, but there are no alternates, so people build what they want with what's available.

I'm no expert in native or web development, but I don't know of any native GUI framework that looks as good as browser rendering does, is free, is easy to distribute, and secure.
Ideally yes? It'd be nice to know the people who were so irresponsible with PII data ended up losing it...
Came across Superhuman from the May “Who’s Hiring?” post. Currently on the iOS team. Just wanted to say you’ll learn a lot working here. Not just with engineering, but with product and growth as well.
iPhone + Chromebook / other laptop, wipe everything to factory defaults before encountering customs. Use full disk encryption.

Login to a cloud server that has your backups / restores / setup scripts / data. Preferably encrypt those backups before you upload them to the cloud server.

Only reason why I don't do it more frequently is it's a pain in the ass. I've been fairly impressed with iOS's backup restoration system recently.

Only had to log in to a specific set of services for everything to be back to normal.

This system is definitely a great way to test your backup restores!

Also: Don't use email for any semblance of secure communications.
I would like to imagine that this interfaces with a Display Locking[1] shim in order to batch DOM updates in order. In all likelyhood this isn't true and there are probably a few race conditions.

It depends? If there's an immediate concrete benefit and they're planning to stay regional anyway? Possibly/probably? And a lot of people actually stay with an employer for a significant length of time. And even just using as a near-term/midterm stepping stone may pay benefits down the road beyond the degree itself.

I tend to think personally that law and MBA grad degrees do generally tilt toward benefiting top schools but I'd never suggest that was an ironclad rule.
And the owner of the computer your using is probably grateful you simply went to a website rather than installing some unknown executable on his computer.
It isn't the upstream forcing the upgrade. It isn't forced at all. You can keep using your old equipment as long as you want. But there would come a point that enough people are using the new protocol that recipients start auto-blocking calls from anyone who doesn't use it.

You may not even have to upgrade the old equipment. For an out of band protocol, the upstream may be able to implement it for you.
Yep, and as an example of billionaire... Notch is a night owl and rolls out of bed pretty much at any hour and he did alright with Minecraft...

Are articles like these even worth writing still? We're many years out of this type of self/help gluttony now, aren't we?
Honestly it seems a bit like stirring the linear algebra pile for the sake of stirring, I don’t think fitting parameters to observation is a space that needs deep neural nets.

They talk about their method allowing fast experimentation with how to train dnn, but what is really needed computationally is fast n-body sims to explore the theory space not a fast classifier once you have a fully converged simulation.

I just can’t see what role the trained network has in cosmology.
iOS/Android could do something like this. You register your number with Apple/Google and link your account with them. When you call someone you set a field on your account that you're calling someone. When the person who you're dialing gets rung, their dialer can look up Apple/Google and see if that number was indeed calling them, and add a "verified" checkmark to the call.

This leads down a privacy/metadata rabbit hole, but there are probably ways to make this a lot better. In any case, the phone OS can do some out-of-band signaling and just avoid dealing with the carriers altogether.

Although if you're doing all that then why not just make a call using voip...
I'm certainly starting to trust the extensions more than the core browser these days...
Frankly he should sue. Nothing major, just legal fees and whatever the fifteen minutes wasted by the cop amounts to in terms of reasonable wages. The cops need to remember we're not here to be pulled over to fill quotas or satisfy their curiosity: every pointless traffic stop is a nuisance to a citizen and should be compensated the same as we're expected to compensate the state for encroaching on their rules.
How? I want to know so I can try to avoid doing something similar.
Great point. Telling us how the CEO operates day to day now when they are the finished product is not helpful in understanding how they became that person. A step by step description of their career would be more useful. How did they get every promotion, how much was luck by being in the right place and how much from hard work and talent. What were the thinking and strategies they used along the way.
Perhaps on the rise of #metoo it is time to bring up such stories in the media and let these generally unknown bullies at the border face same consequences as famous people as well?
I think parent is taking issue with the weird "Apple is smart!" opening narrative, which seems to imply that Apple came up with computational photography, as opposed to it simply being a general industry trend.

Not as it pertains to WSJ. I tried to delete an account I had with them multiple times; utter failures.
Thanks Sean! You can use git if you want and just point the fiddle at a qualified var like "myapp.foo.bar/xyz-view". Tbh it will take some time for these ideas to settle in and figure out how far the idea of code-in-database can be pushed. One interesting thing to note is that any fiddle's cljs code is basically just little top-level React.js snippets that stitch components together, it just isn't very critical in the grand scheme of things, the components themselves are still a proper dependency rooted in git. There are also some new things we can do, for example: really good intellisense backed by a database, collaborative editors for pair programming, or even dependency splitting and analysis down to the function scale like explored in Codeq. Only time will tell!
Of course it is obvious, it is just that almost no one online believes that the information contained within is worth enough to subscribe, and there is not a frictionless way to compensate the other the $0.03 cents worth of value I potentially got from the article.
Never understood people's infatuation with reading CEO biographies.

We can't assume that book sales perfectly represent public interest in the books sold. Anytime someone who is very well-compensated in fields other than writing has an inexplicably successful book, we have to wonder how many of those books ever touched a reader's hands. Publishers just want to sell books; they don't care if lots of them are sold to a CEO-author as some sort of vanity project.
Not necessarily. Grab a set of ballots in a public library, randomly from a pile, the way you can grab a set of tax forms.

Send them from an arbitrary public mailbox at a busy place, like a train station or a mall.

This should make tracking impractical, unless you expect "them" to scan for fingerprints.

Isn't Myrddin another name for Merlin or something...maybe Latin?

Myr is too much like Mir (Russian space station).

Edit: Wikipedia search says it is Welsh for Merlin & Merlinus is Latin for it.
Then don't read it. If it's valuable enough to pirate, it's valuable enough to pay for.
Oh duh, thanks. You're obviously right. I was thinking of my experience when I was out and didn't have that card on me.

It's not an exact analogy but if you start with the idea of "Characteristics of lottery winners." As the base and make it entirely up to the author to show with evidence that their content is actually better than that when they discuss CEOs, you'll avoid a bunch of total BS.
Your arguments, simplified, are 1) "we don't need to include other philosophy, because we only teach western philosophy", 2) "it seems kind of like all written philosophy is western, so your example is bunk", 3) "somebody can eventually add some other culture's philosophy to this page so we don't need to change it at all right now".

They should either change the title of the page, or include all other philosophy. But the current state is at the very least incredibly lazy and misleading, and at worst, insulting.

Yes, because copyright only lasts for a finite duration. In 100+ years when the original right-holders have disappeared, or when copyright expires and the original right-holders have no incentive to keep the originals; IA archive and similar archiving efforts will be able to make their copies available as a matter of historical importance.

Not sure about references but the general consensus I have seen and heard, and is congruently in my own life as well, is that willpower is at its strongest in the morning and as the day goes on we experience "decision fatigue" that drains us mentally.

Additionally, there seems to be some kind of slowdown that necessitates sleep. There have been studies (sorry don't have references handy) that show people who are sleep deprived are less likely to exercise self-constraint.

I would recommend the book "Miracle Morning" if you are interested in more.

As to not being productive in the morning, there is a consistency of waking up at the same time that needs to happen. In my experience, it takes 10-20 days before you can function well at the earlier time period.

Also, there are things you can do to increase alertness. Sunlight, drinking water (dehydration makes you tired and mentally sluggish), electrolytes, exercise (just a minute or 2 to get heart rate up), cold shower. All of these wake the body up and increase mental alertness. I frequently use them before I start my day and it makes a big difference. You can't just wake up and start working, you have to have a consistent routine that is aligned with human physiology.

It takes about 30 minutes after getting out of bed before I reach peak alertness.

Which provider? I noticed (too late) that the airport SIMs have special overpriced plans. I'm used to paying ~$10/GB for data in Australia, it seems to be about double that in NZ without going on a plan.
This reasoning is sound. If one felt an MBA was worth it, probably better to try for a part-time MBA while keeping their current job. The only disadvantage is that many have said the networking and career opportunities are slightly better for full-time MBAs if students wish to shift their careers completely into different sectors.

I would say that knowing exactly what one wants from an MBA program, financial situation and risk tolerance, will usually tip the scales in favour of a part-time MBA.

That sounds like a terrible idea
I'm especially interested in open source/free software businesses and business models. Are you planning to do an open core kind of thing, or maintain full on open source while charging for hosting and/or other services? I realise that might be a difficult question to answer as you might want to keep your options open, so I'm not asking for a commitment :-) I'm just curious about your plans.

Also do you ever think you might add (for want of a better phrase) custom development services if you aren't already? For example, allowing people to pay a fee to get specific features added to Sourcegraph. What are the kinds of benefits and risks you might see from going in that kind of direction?

I've noticed that a lot of open core businesses tend to avoid offering customer development services -- and if they do it's often perceived as a cost centre rather than a profit centre. It's something that is provided out of necessity of having to provide custom solutions for a few big customers, but the services team often appears to be at odds with the core development team. As you have obviously gone through the thought process of how to make money when your software is out in the open, I wonder what kinds of thoughts you have on that topic.

It's really nice to see this kinds of stuff happening and I wish you the best luck possible in your endeavours!

What if most of your information is online, in some cloud platform and you don't have the app installed on your phone?

My iPhone isn't logged into any cloud services and the only apps I have installed are Google Maps and Gmail. I don't log into my Apple account and don't have the Dropbox app installed. Much of my data is stored in an S3 bucket. Simply giving an officer my phone means I'm surrendering my Gmail account and local phone data i.e. contacts and reminders. Not terribly worried about that.
To really investigate my digital presence they'd need access to my Dropbox, AWS account, personal email etc. Can they request that information despite not having any trace of it on my phone.

How deep do they go?

Doesn’t this simply encourage extension authors to request as many permissions as possible from the outset?

Most users just click yes to all of these things. Those who would skip installing an extension because of this are an extreme minority.
If you actually want to make the proof above as rigorous as Goedel’s original proof, you’ll find that it will be exactly as technical as the original. The technical difficulty in the proof above is hidden in the step 2 — what you need to show is that every statement of a form “the Turing machine T = {..., ..., ...} halts on input ...” is expressible in the language of first order arithmetic. To do that, you need to do exactly the same work as Goedel did, with all the finite string encoding etc.
Awesome! You guys did what I could not. Congratulations! So excited to see where this takes Sourcegraph, and the community around it.

In my experience, even just using Sourcegraph to browse source code in open source repos is way faster than the native git host browsing (BitBucket, GitHub, Gitlab, etc). We use it daily at my lab, especially as I help others learn the code base. Thanks for Sourcegraph.
