edit: they gain nothing by making the 3 appear safer than the S and X. They make much bigger margin on the most expensive models, and they want to increase demand for them (while they're ramping up the 3 production and go through the huge backlog). Although they've stopped anti-selling the 3, they certainly don't want people to think of the 3 has a newer/better version of the S.
That sounds a bit like where I live, in State College, Pennsylvania. It's a small city in the mountains, home to Penn State University.

* There are about 40k permanent residents, plus 40k students. It grows to as much as 200k on football weekends, and has the infrastructure to handle that (highways, etc).

* My current rent is $625 per month, utilities included, for a 2 bedroom in the country (10 minutes from Wegmans).

* The university library is open 24/7 when school is in session (with reduced hours otherwise). Any resident of Pennsylvania can request a borrower's card, and anyone can use the common spaces.

* The university hosts global cultural events, like the Cuban National Orchestra and Danish String Quartet.

Pennsylvanians believe strongly in independence, which can be both good and bad. The mountain folk can be a bit uncivilized, but if you want room to think for yourself without the cost and congestion of a major city, it doesn't get much better.
I've worked remotely out of Chiang Mai, Thailand for a short period and it was pretty awesome. There's a lot happening there, specially with the Blockchain events and meetups that I went to. Met some really smart people there.
Co-working spaces are plenty and pretty good.
Several weeks ago I went to a funeral for a family of four, who were killed when an 18-wheeler rear-ended them on an interstate and shoved them under a flatbed trailer. I can't imagine that being survivable in any car. They were in a Ford Explorer.

One of RG major role was allowing local informations to go upstream so that politics knew what was going on outside of their ivory tower. Since they were operating using local branches it was a sure way to get first hand informations.

Of course to do their jobs they had to keep files on anyone or anything relevant.
Could this be potentially misused ? Definitely. But it had a pretty good reason of existing.

After they got merged they lost most of their local branch and got retasked. Meaning the government have to rely more on second hand data and can more easily fall prey to falsified informations. The truth is a little more complicated than that but it was indeed a really useful tool.
For those of you reading these things thinking, "Oh, I don't know anybody who has had this happen to them. This could never happen to me or anybody I know".

11 years ago, Steven Fountain, a friend of mine, a programmer / systems administrator I met when I was working at Napster who suffered from schizophrenia was shot to death by police in Campbell, California. He had called the police in a moment of confusion and despair.

I had just interviewed him for a job at a company where I was working two weeks earlier, and was trying to convince my boss to hire him even though he was quirky, not quite realizing how bad his emotional state was until talking to his ex-gf at the funeral.

> "low code" is confusing When I started reading I thought low code, meant low "level" code, something like assembly or rust.

I expected that as well from the title but at the very start they link the meaning of the term so that those of us that don’t know what it means can quickly find out on Wikipedia.

I think it’s best to do like they are doing and link the Wikipedia article.

I guess you could compare it to the model driven Power Apps. However, Alan's modeling language is more powerful. Especially the concept of state groups that allows you to specify complex business rules in the application model itself.

It's the process of laying down the rules for the data in your application that drives development in Alan. Unlike Google App Builder, you don't start from a drag and drop UI builder. Although a drag-and-drop UI builder is something we might want to add at some point. For most applications though, the generated UI is plenty powerful, because what it needs to support is perfectly specified in the datamodel.
The overarching theme is why isn't everyone using this tool. A few issues:

1) They might be, and it's being fooled. But...

2) ...they're likely not using it. Consider the following:

> "So why isn’t this system in widespread use? After all, much of it has been available since 2014."

With the compromised servers being purchased in 2015 it's assuming the ubiquitous implementation of the described system a year after "much of it" was available. Big companies don't move that fast to begin with (budgets, politics, entrenchment of current processes, etc.). Also, the article doesn't site anywhere this tech has been proven in the wild. Do you want to make that case to your boss that your job can be replaced (and maybe theirs) with this, probably expensive to purchase and implement, unproven tech? That's even if you've heard or thought of this system coming together in 2014 to prevent an attack that would've infiltrated your network by 2015.

The only defense they give for why it hasn't been used was they were waiting for a huge attack to help justify company's spend. That would help, but FICS would be better off taking on the initial capital costs and charging these big companies on a per server basis to use FICS's system (or spinning of a company to do so, idk how FICS could make this happen).

It's like saying a day after SpaceX's flight around the moon that if your company wants to get to the moon have your company purchase a BFR and send their own people up. Cool. Take a hike.
Anyone that's not ignorant of modern media knows it's true, that clickbaut headlines stretch and mangle the truth.

Now, what you showed us with your Breitbart analysis is very minor and irrelevant to the basic thrust of the story.

The full quote about migrants not contributing to their own upkeep is "there are still too many who do not support themselves. This applies especially to women, where too few contribute."

"Do not support themselves" and "too few contribute" have the same meaning. So she is basically saying "too many don't support themselves. This is especially true for women". So Breitbart's headline is correct in saying too few support themselves. The meaning is the same.

The way the author wrote the headline is standard journalistic license used by the NYT, WaPo, etc...

The point is your evidence was not really an effective critique of Breitbart.

Last week I noticed that when I tried to create a Date object in Swift using a Date Formatter and passing in a string with the date where DST starts in my country it would crash my app.

extension Date {

static func fromString(_ string: String) -> Date {
let formatter = DateFormatter()
formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-M-d"
return formatter.date(from: string)! ///Force unwrap because I never pass invalid strings.
}

}

Even though I was passing a valid string it still crashed because it couldn't parse it into a date. I solved the problem by adding a random hour to the date(All that mattered to me is the day/month/year so I just don't use the hour/minutes/seconds).

I wonder if it's the same bug causing a boot loop since it's being used by iOS itself.
individual action is essentially meaningless.

Now there's a motto to live by. Isn't that all we have? Individuals acting?
28 years in space is a long time, and the new JWST has a 5x larger collection area and is fundamentally capable of detecting a much larger spectrum (the mirrors are kept colder). The HST has cost more to keep operational than it did to build at this point, and its construction was not smooth. Money might be better spent elsewhere.

However, there is a HUGE amount of data still to collect from space-based telescopes. Even a crippled HST is a desperately wanted resource. It benefits us to have as many space telescopes as we can right now.
You can also get a Golden Visa if you buy property in an urban rehabilitation area (or any property with more than 30 years) for 350k.

If you don't need a golden visa, you can buy a very decent flat in the outskirts (within 30 mins - 1 hour commute) for less than half of that.
They can probably achieve this because they are a young company. "Generational" companies has a tendency to fall into a "best known practices" void. Usually these best practices have some sort of merit behind them. Either technically (to minimize risk or keep existing process) or economically (existing tooling or manufacturing plants). The red tape can be hard to break through even if you're an engineer that knows of a way to make the chassis safer.
> already has a pretty high cost and difficulty

That's true, but properly implemented secure boot could serve to increase it by an order of magnitude.

I'll bite.
These terms, and particularly "panic" and "kill" have negative connotations in software. These are things that we generally prefer to avoid when creating our systems.
On the other hand, the terms "master" and "slave" have been used in the context of databases with an entirely neutral sentiment, and I think that's where the problem lies, as it (slightly) normalizes the word "slave".

Pittsburgh is great. I live in a city you've never heard of and pay $1125/mo for a one bedroom apartment. A good friend of mine lives in Pittsburgh and pays $1200/mo for a 5 bedroom house (rental) in an unpopular but safe and growing neighborhood of Pittsburgh proper. The cost of living is insanely low and Pennsylvania is a low tax state (flat 3.2% person income tax), which compared to California can equal a few hundred dollars a paycheck for the higher incomes.

Keep in mind though that a lot of San Francisco and NYC folks move to Pittsburgh for a year or two then leave because it's not San Francisco or NYC. Public transit sucks. Traffic is really bad during rush hour (not SF bad, but it is one of the worst in the state, probably second only the Schuylkill Expressway going into Philadelphia). Nobody lives downtown because there are no supporting services downtown like grocery stores or anything like that. You 110% need a car to live there.

> look at Django and Rails for inspiration. People love to hate them

You'll always get some portion of the community hating whatever's on top. Even in 2018, if your startup isn't using one of these two, you'd better have a damn good reason. Rails, and to a lesser extent Django, are the absolutely boring but productive as fuck workhorses of any startup. Bypass them at your peril when your project passes in front of competent due diligence.

the article describe how to spot a supposed spying chip when it happens, but why they single China? Just replace it with Israel and the article would still valid.
>The danger of being shot every time they get a call to a scene is very real. This creates the mentality of shooting first and asking questions later.

>Hot headed officers?! In a country where everybody can own a gun there is a real fear of getting shot. The only worse profession is to be in the army.

>Surprisingly other countries have armed police as well, but somehow they wont pull the trigger that often then the Americans. Wonder why... Oh wait, maybe because there is a minuscule chance of being shot by another person?

Oh piss off. The danger of being shot is not nearly what the training videos and boot-lickers will have you believe. Cops don't even crack the top ten for dangerous jobs. As far as well paying blue collar jobs you can get with a highschool diploma goes it's one of the safer ones. Teenagers with light machine guns have no problem working under far more restrictive rules of engagement than the cops have. I think the cops can be reasonably expected to hold their fire until they see a gun or get charged by an armed individual. At the very least they have a responsibility to not unnecessarily escalate situations. This isn't a guns issue, it's an officers too eager to use force issue (as can be seen with how they use tasers and pepper spray).
I can't agree more. I worked in both Chicago and London; Portugal (perhaps Lisbon) seemed like the kind of place I would go to do remote work from if I were to move in Europe.
You could look at it like that. But because data modeling language underneath is so much more detailed and powerful, the default UI is also much more useful than what you get in Access or any other relational database. The basic target audience is similar, but Alan scales a lot better to more complicated applications.

As you say, we see Excel being stretched to doing things it cannot do, and on the other hand custom apps being built for things that don't need to be so specific. There is a place for low code the way Outsystems does it for instance, but we believe a lot of businesses would be better served by something like we're offering here.
But we are still discussing...

Just met with a lot of the Automattic devs last week, their company culture is interesting.

Each team division has a different theme. And subthemes from parent themes. Example, hogwarts/harry potter for their entire mobile dev team (40+ people). Maybe this is common practice for remote only companies, I am not sure though.
> French Revolution? Throwing out the monarchy wholesale was a pretty big change in those days.

And it was the birth of a new tyranny, wasn't it? The "Reign of Terror" - that was the sad reality for those living in that period.

> Don't forget the many revolutions by former colonies of European powers. They were violent, but bought about change. The good kind.

For one, Gandhi demonstrated you don't need violence to make a good change. Yet most people still believe in violence as the primary means. Second, I'm appalled to see what happened to many if not most of these colonies. One tyranny was replaced by another. I'm not sure you can call it a good change.
Keep in mind that they were replying to "my little darling is going to have a life so fucked by climate change that it couldn't be worth living."

The post you replied to took the other extreme.
PCI DSS allows for "Mitigating Controls" if you need to deviate from specified requirements, provided it is well documented and is equal to or greater in security. Doing teardowns to review circumspect hardware, and applying one's own tamper protection deal (and with accompanying documentation and tracking/logged information) would very likely be sufficient to maintain complaince.
> Is it strictly correct to say Neanderthals became extinct if we carry some of their DNA?

Yes. Neanderthals as a population don't exist anymore.

The house cat and tiger shares 95% of the same genes. If tigers disappeared, you wouldn't consider it an extinction because we have house cats around?

https://www.csmonitor.com/Science/2013/0918/House-cats-and-t...

Also, the common ancestors of humans and the common ancestors of cats became extinct a long time ago. Are you saying those "creatures" aren't extinct because humans and cats are around?

Edit: An additional example for those interested. Birds today share same genes as tyrannosaur rex.

I can’t speak for those, but the Ford Focus Electric is based on the original ICE Focus design and has the batteries in the rear cargo area (and no frunk either). The lack of a big chunk of metal where the engine would be - without augmenting the front crumple zone - presumably lessens the Electric Focus’ front impact safety rating based on the physics alone.
Dundee, Scotland. Very cheap yet charming property (if you avoid the housing schemes). Proximity to several good "Russel Group" universities (Edinburgh, Glasgow, St. Andrews, Aberdeen, Dundee).

Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area of North Carolina. There's a ton of research happening in Research Triangle Park, 3 major universities within 20 minutes of each other, and one of the highest concentrations of PhDs per capita of anywhere in the world. The cost of living is low and you can get some space/land if you want it.
They are not selling for a loss. Analysts predict the $35k model will sell at a loss but all currently selling models generate a marginal profit.
Yes, $2-4k/mo on average in Santiago[1], and even lower in the regions. I'd suggest going remote because it's one of the few developed countries where you can get a visa without a local employer. Also, the quality of life is higher outside the capital.

Yeah, it's normally that you need N developers per microservice (I've seen N=5 recommended, for example.)
Depending on the word, The centi- prefix can mean multiply by 100 instead of divide by 100.

The popularity of "centimillionaire" to mean $100 million is reflected in Google's top results.[1] Merriam-Webster dictionary, Wikipedia, and Forbes all mention centimillionaire as $100 million.

Likewise, "centipede" means a creature with ~100 feet (even though no species actually has exactly 100 feet).

Language usage is ultimately dictated by popularity instead of "correct" scientific prefix rules and it looks like "hectamillionaire" is not the widespread choice to label 10^8 dollars.[2]
