Well, people don't usually consider themselves to be coerced by themselves, so it makes sense that anyone who feels they were coerced into it is blaming someone else.

My family and friends couldn't believe how quickly I got my permanent residence visa. Make certain that every individual fills out the proper form to send to IRCC. If you can't do so, then it's an excellent indication that staying in the relationship is likely to hurt one or both of you in the long term.

What Is So Fascinating About IVisa Testimonials? It's possible for you to submit an application for a Russian visa support. Thank you for the amazing work you have done in securing our visa. Foreign nationals from certain countries can't acquire an ETA if they're a permanent resident or if they're non-compliant with the conditions of their residency card, Lowe stated. To acquire a Russian tourist visa you first have to receive a tourist invitation. The passport has to have a blank page to give space for visa stamping. Your visa will often be valid for up to six months.

What You Must Know About IVisa Testimonials Likewise there's no specific revenue requirement for those who sponsor their spouses. You might also have to pay the immigration healthcare charge as a portion of your application. You are going to be able to establish your very best option and you'll have the chance to ask all your questions regarding the immigration procedure, career prospects and about Canada.

The Chronicles of IVisa Testimonials The visa officer assessing your application is searching for someone who exemplifies transferable and several skills that could easily be adapted in other professional titles. The employment information helped one of my students receive a volunteer position inside her field to get Canadian experience. Also my family financial condition was not so sound.
Perfect and thank you. Everyone who gets offended by the interview process needs to read this
Gnome has been really pissing me off lately. Simple things, like adding app that start on login need a "Tweak" tool? How silly is that.

With the upgrade to Fedora 29 I thought I'd try KDE. Its got a lot of the features I miss from Gnome - and a tray, and not so fat title bar. But its really unstable in various ways. In particular, forgetting many settings after a reboot. One display having a background, the other not.

Anyways, back to Gnome. At least whats their is stable.

I plan to give XFCE a shot. But might be time to take the i3 dive.
It's not in my experience performant but Pentaho is definitely ETL-for-dummies easy to use. Similar to your average user pivoting data in Excel rather than learning Python or R, sometimes having a tool with suboptimal performance is better than optimizing an adhoc or short term process.
Really? So leetcode is actually helping you work better with your future colleague in Google？
In Clojure, all of these are lazy by default.

what would u recommend in its place?
The problem I had with musky notebooks is that I have too many of them. I have literally 80~100 old moleskines in a draw filled with old notes and ideas. Like you, I've tried most digital solutions, and they all came up lacking. Nothing can beat hand written note-taking for me.

So, I thought "Why not both?" For the last 5 years I've used a Samsung Galaxy note 8.0 with pen(the old tablet, not the phone). And the best app I found to take notes on is the stock S-note app.

I can put ideas into their own 'book'. It has shape recognition (draw a crappy square or line and it converts it into a nice clean one). Lots of customization options for pen shape, color, transparency and size. I can take or download photos to paste into the notebook.

But the killer feature for me has been the ability to import PDFs and write over them. Not only do I use this feature for reading textbooks and keeping my notes in them, but I can make custom "paper" backgrounds - think different grids - dot, hex etc.

And last year when I started journaling, I found no journal system worked for me exactly. So using Scribus (an open source DTP solution like InDesign) I can make custom journals (think daily, weekly and monthly organization pages) as PDFs to import and scribble on.

So now I have all my notes with me, able to scribble and doodle when I need, backed up and easily searchable and importable to my laptop. Win-win.

S-note doesn't quite do everything I need it to, so I may try to create my own solution - but it's 90% there.
I think we’re finally at the point where hardware isolation is a standard part of our defense in depth, just like ASLR and W^X. I’d like to see these exposed in more consistent ways to software. T2 should be able to provide U2F, it’s too bad it doesn’t.
I agree. Some of the European countries like Germany have invested heavily in solar energy too and that makes much more sense to move to an EV
Getting married helped cement things for me, but honestly, complete failure was never an option. It took me time to turn things around, and I failed over and over until I finally made it happen.

Also the fact that I can’t go back to the previous version.
Not sure how you plan on getting into medical tech without being OK with paperwork.

The paperwork is far from useless, traceability and documentation are important. Try to learn about the medical device approval process and FDA, and you might come to like the required steps, or at the least, understand it.
How? The point is to prevent invisible eavesdropping not prevent some spook on the table from hacking you.
Rendering Raw HTML in Your React Native Application
One usual issue on the callee side is that the code inside the callback might call again into the same component (here: AccessTokenLoader::retrieveToken). When this call is done, state inside the component is modified before the callback returns. When the callback returns the component is now no longer in the state that it was, which might not be expected. In C++, it could even happen that the object was deleted within the callback. Then accessing any local field after the callback returns leads to a segfault.

One kind of remedy is to only call callbacks at the end of the the logic, and don't touch anything anymore after the callback returns. That works in some cases - however scheduling the callback might be easier to reason about.

Then there are also issues on the caller side, if the caller doesn't expect that the callback is sometimes made synchronously and sometimes asynchronously. If it's assumed that the callback happens asynchronously and some state is modified in it, the code that runs after invoking the initial function might work on wrong assumptions (wasn't aware that state could have been modified).
How are those times not arbitrary? Midday is not the middle of the day if you don't wake up at 4 o clock, 14:00 or 14:30 is about the middle of the day.

We could shift the hours for work and life, such that it'd be normal to wake up at 4:30, to have lunch at 10, the sun to reach its peak at 12, the middle of the day etc... But that would be a global, massive effort, requiring a rewrite of conventions that go back centuries. Or we could change the clock instead, making the connection between the number on the clock and the sun a little more arbitrary and giving us a few more hours sunlight at convenient times
I did a small inventory of my online accounts the other day and got surprised by how little I depend on Google. A few years ago I figured Google was just a necessity of living (online) these days.

I first migrated to Fastmail a couple years ago, mainly to just have more control and use my own domain etc. Contacts and calendar shortly followed.

I switched to iPhone last year, not because Android is bad or anything, it's just what I had had for a long time and I wanted to try something else. No regrets there.

I switched to Chrome many years ago because it just worked better than other browsers, but recently I went back to try Firefox and it's really good now.

I never really used cloud storage.. (Photos/Drive)

Google is still the vastly better choice for Search, hands down. But just for the hell of it I decided to stick with DuckDuckGo and it's good enough for most things. Only occasionally do I head over to Google to get better results. It's not optimal, but I can live with that.

Google also has very good store/location info etc in Maps, and the photos to go with it. Apple's maps is far from the joke it used to be, but when you just want to get info on a store or something and you get redirected to TripAdvisor, that's a huge bummer.

Finally Youtube, there's just no competition out there.

All in all, of course Google has a presence in my online activity, but it's not the end-all be-all internet hub I thought it was.
Aren't Richard Stallman, Linus Torvalds and other free software authors and organizers 'people like that'? Those two, and others as well [1], have been very productive and more influential than most rich entrepeneurs.

Jeez, you weren't kidding. ~2.5MB on Chrome and ~5.5MB on FF transferred, which uncompresses to >20MB and takes around 20 seconds to become responsive.
Hmm, we always have a science fiction meme that says that says any civilisation that gets to our level of technology will wipe itself out with nuclear weapons or something. This seems like a more real risk, the technology gets sufficiently advanced that it cannot withstand any external shock. 1859 = fine, 2018 it would destroy capitalism and commerce. The same dark abyss we were staring down at the time of the GFC.
CTO of azure, not a bad career path.
I just tried /mail/h in https and got redirected back to the new version. If it does work in http then alas, I don't want the old design back that badly.
The only part of Gmail I need redesigned is the settings page. I thought, "surely, this page from before the last redesign will finally get the treatment it needs." I was wrong.
> If you want to do multi-value return, the sane thing is to use a tuple, which is a core data structure we all learn about in CS undergrad, and use that as a return type and have functions return a single value

You could say the same about function argument lists--that functions should only take a tuple.

IME the reason some particular language only permits returning a single value is typically either (a) convention or (b) a reflection of implementation details.
Sounds like Google has become just another big company.
If you look at this - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_homeless_... - the US has quite low homelessness rates. The problem is the USA is a massive country in area and population. The opportunities vary greatly, as do the resources. REALLY low macro homelessness (think nationally) can still lead to very high rates at a micro level (think Tenderloin).

Where can the USA look for similarities? Singapore is one city state, as is Hong Kong. Australia's cities are 600 miles apart. The EU has a language issue moving from city to city, despite London to Paris being 1/10th as far than SF is to NYC. The USA is pretty unique here.

The one similar country is China. The GDP per capita by Chinese prefecture makes the US look positively egalitarian: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_prefecture-level_citie...

China solves their issues by essentially banning movement between areas. The US could never solve their issues that way, for a variety of reasons.

So I'm not sure what the solution is to micro level high homelessness, but macro level low homelessness.
Most of Chinese family don't have their first car yet.

The Gergel mess was small and in no way comparable to the PCB mess in the Hudson or the Love Canal site in Buffalo.

Chemophobiacs may remember Edward Tyczkowski, featured here in a breathless Salon article: https://www.salon.com/2004/03/23/armageddon/

He was a very talented fluorine chemist, who ran a custom synthesis and contract research outfit out of a shed in the ghetto somewhere in the South. From colleagues who knew him I understand that he was a true gentleman and righteous. He wasn't known for mishaps, but when he retired he left behind cylinders of sulfur tetrafluoride (10 times more toxic than phosgene) and perfluoroisobutylene (100 times more toxic than phosgene, supposedly the Russians had a stash because it passes through your regular gas masks) and much other stuff.

A trained chemist knows how to use SF4 without incident (I have done so myself), but it's remarkable that Tyczkowski, who recruited his workers from the ghetto - Apartheid was strong in the 1960s Southern US, didn't have deaths amongst his workforce. It shows what properly training one's workforce can do. Meanwhile Information Technology tries to achieve the perfect fit through endless rounds of interviewing and teambuilding and keeps failing.

I'm surprised they still support IMAP.
YES. I just knew about Pentaho recently and it’s amazing. Sad that they just scrubbed off info about the free community version on their webpage, and to automate the jobs on the community version you need to do cron/Task Scheduler stuff outside of the app. I know it’s a limitation to make people jump ship to the paid version, but I just hope it’s integrated so I don’t have to think about setting up cron jobs to have automated ETLs and just have people responsible to create the jobs do the scheduling too.
I agree. While I appreciate the lack of "tacky business" looks, it also is a site about shopping, so I would make it a store like interface, but less overload as we usually get.

Old compatibility levels can be deprecated at some point, this would qualify.
we've rebuilt like 15 countries (after bombing them) in the past ... somehow its totally impossible to temporarily house a fractional percentage of people in our country and make sure they get a job or their meds instead of addicted to heroin

theres so many bs political excuses; bad zoning, bad building regulation, bad union rules, bad health regulations, bad drug laws, civil legal liability, cost of Rx drugs ... as if government doesnt have have power to fix those things. it's a feigned helplessness because the poor inherently have no political leverage/value to those in power.
> Imagine if people tried to "monetize" their conversations.

People do try to monetize their conversations. That's why "networking" is a different word than "socializing".
I think you may be missing the point. I was trying to give an example of complexity, not trying to prove that a software engineer could casually walk up and design a spaceship.

The OP's point was that both types of engineering are of similar complexity when contrasted to writing in a natural language
In my opinion it’s brilliant.

He spent very little time on this experiment.

Assuming that the creator really is a data scientist - or even if not - this is practically the default hypothesis to test. Do people click through, given these claims? Pictures and a better layout might even confound it.
From guidelines: If the original title begins with a number or number gratuitous adjective, we'd appreciate it if you'd crop it. E.g. translate "10 Ways To Do X" to "How To Do X," and "14 Amazing Ys" to "Ys." Exception: when the number is meaningful, e.g. "The 5 Platonic Solids."
Land isn't automatically useful/valuable. It does need to be developed. If you took the land area of a city, and then went out bush and asked how much it cost for the same area, it would be pretty much peanuts. Yet land prices in cities are orders of magnitude higher.

The land is really only the start, and I'm pretty damn sure you will need an order of magnitude more money than that to develop it into something usable by modern standards.
Advertising makes me angry.

I live in a city that has a characteristic mountain. So, naturally, advertisers are placing their towering billboards so that they constantly block the view when you're driving on the avenue that would have the best unimpeded line of sight.
I heard they are pretty good and are a bit more secure, but the underlying system is still android.
No, I don't make money off of it - however I have benefit greatly from it myself, and I saw it greatly benefit others. In my early 20s I had developed a severe hypersensitivity to sound (hyperacusis) after being prescribed a medication. Audiograms that followed showed that I could hear at 0 Dbs across all frequencies, and a later one showed many that I could hear below 0 Dbs, and a few at -14 Dbs (the equipment couldn't check lower than that). The AIT sound therapy undid all of that (and more, however you're not a receptive audience I care to share that with/spend the effort writing it out here to you).

Although I appreciate skepticism, your level of research you're presenting is fairly shallow and so I don't really feel like engaging further with you right now. Once again, based on your other arrogant answers, it's not surprising you'd get a "strong smell of woo" from it. The process of knowledge spreading through society takes time, it takes time for things become mainstream. Another example I'll bring up related to knowledge taking time getting to mainstream, with more concrete biological evidence available to reference (as well as concepts already having been in society for a long time) is related to stem cells/regenerative medicine. Stem cells will heal injuries, regenerate tissue. Even though this is the case, assuming an evolved process is used (meaning proper/adequate training etc) my physician absurdly still didn't believe that the impact I had personally to treat pain had healed anything or would be permanent; and that's primarily because he hadn't encountered anyone who had had went for a stem cell treatment before, even though there have been doctors doing it and evolving the process for 18 years now - and from doctors doing it, they have said it likely won't become mainstream for perhaps even 15 more years. Anyway, I'm writing this out more for my benefit since I don't think you'll actually understand the connection I'm trying to make. P.S. The US had stem cell research ban for a long time. Also, that Wiki URL has a surprisingly scarce/limited amount of information on it. Once again, I'll refer you to the book, Hearing Equals Behaviour.
Great strides in helping the homeless can be achieved by giving them housing. It almost sounds like a tautology, and it triggers outrage in certain segments of the population, but once people have that stable foundation they can then work towards rebuilding their life.
It gets hard to keep track of say a chunk of text that you read online on a particular topic and want to append in your note.

As soon as I got the update notification and couldn't say no, I quit Gmail.

The redesign is absolutely horrible, and just like OP, I find it unusably slow (on a beasty Gaming PC).

I got Fastmail, and redirect my Gmail which will now only be used as a spam address. Exactly the same as when I went Hotmail to Gmail and Hotmail because my spam address.

The tech cycle continues.

Oh, the Carrington Event again. This has been on HN several times. It ought to be on a list of common misconceptions.

- This has nothing to do with "EMP". That's a big but brief RF pulse with a rise time around 1ns. This is induced DC in long wires over a period of hours.

- The basic effect is that a current is induced in the earth's crust, resulting in a DC voltage between grounds at widely separated points. This is mostly a problem for long AC high-tension power lines using wye-connected transformers at each end which run in the same direction as mountains of igneous rock. The DC component can partially saturate the transformer, using up some of its capacity. If undetected, transformers can overheat, and worst case, burn out. This occurred on March 13, 1989 on some lines in the eastern US.

- PJM, which runs the northeastern US power grid, is now prepared for this. See PJM's training manual for this[1], starting at page 22. They get 1 to 6 days warning from the NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center. They have monitoring for unwanted DC flows at multiple points in the power grid. When trouble appears, certain power lines have to have their current reduced.

- A few times a year, more at the top of the sunspot cycle, there are warnings of a potential problem. PJM last issued a warning on August 26, 2018. It didn't progress to an "alert", or actual action. There are people in a control room in Valley Forge, PA, and another backup location, watching this. They can reroute power around the trouble spots, call for extra generation output, and dump some loads if necessary. Load dumping starts with bulk buyers of "interruptible power" - aluminum smelters, Bitcoin mines, etc., which are willing to be the first turned off in exchange for a discount.

- It's not a problem for anything shorter than hundreds of miles. It's not a problem for high-voltage DC power lines, like the Pacific Intertie and the really long ones from western to eastern China. It has zero effect on fiber optics or small devices.

- When you encounter clueless reporters writing about the power grid, aim them at "PJM 101", which is a set of introductory training materials on how the power grid works, written for people who run it.

Reed switches are pretty damned huge when working at the scale of a laptop.

Not to mention it would make the case of the computer microphonic — bump it hard enough and that’ll be transmitted through the reed relay.
