> I think you can have reasonably priced quality products and worker well-being, but good luck making your case to shareholders and their apologists.

If the market could bear a higher priced product that’s ethically sourced, why wouldn’t companies simply raise the price to what the market bears, and pocket the profit instead of ethically source it?
Master password is never prefilled on mine. Not to log in to it or to create new credentials. I can't even see that as an option.

You don't happen to have that password set up in your browsers own password management tool do you?

Url for new credentials is always the current one as well.
Fast food is minimum wage, which is 7.25$ an hour here (it's also rarely actually full-time and lacking in benefits). I make more like 16$ an hour, so if you look at the article linked below I'm a bit shy of lower middle-class for Indiana.

Because the compliance cost is not caused by losing revenue from having to remove infringing content.

And ContentID is useless because it's full of false positives and false negatives, so it only creates problems for honest customers without even removing all of the infringing material.
That's the same thing they said at the turn of the 20th century. Didn't work out too well...
If you write an email to someone, and they respond with one word "Interesting", you should take a hint that you're boring them out of their minds. Don't blame robots for that :)
Mine's a mid-2010 MBP, only paid $1600 new (later upgraded the memory and swapped to an SSD). It's still my main system eight years later. Unfortunately, I can't install newer versions of the OS. I'm stuck at no higher than 10.12(?), so now there's mainstream software I can't install because of OS version requirements.

Kind of a bummer since it's still a good machine. 8+ years is a pretty good run, but that doesn't mean I'm ready to replace it. I guess my point is, yeah, even if initially expensive, it's been a good value. I hope the new ones are similar...
I don't know, the entire story smells a bit like a submarine. No customers named, but everyone is talking about them.
Yes, the first thing I noticed is the date quite clearly says 18 (why not blur the whole thing?)

This doesn't square with the experience my friends on a small family farm had - they could not get organic certified because a neighboring farm was using glysophate. That was admittedly ~16 years ago, so maybe something has changed.
Text message versus gmail, actually. And the difference makes a lot of sense since no one expects a single text to contain all the information of a reply and also texts are more likely to be time sensitive and so reducing friction to answer is good.
Why do we need a blockchain for this?
My hope is that as these bounds are refined we can start to do BotE calculations such as, "I have 50k training images of 512x512x3 and 1k classes, this means I'll need a Convolutional Resnet of at most 12 layers and 12M params to fit the training data so let's start at half that." Rather than today which is 'let's use resnet 101 and see if that works.'
Germany is a nice white spot on the map because they all run their Fritz boxen, which seem to be unaffected by BCMPUPnP_Hunter.
Not sure why you’re being downvoted. A big resume hole is a huge red flag to recruiters.

"who have agreed to a contract to fulfill business needs in exchange for money, "

Technically, that's true, but in reality not.

Devs go to work, build stuff, and get paid every few weeks.

Their direction really is oriented only towards the goals they are given.

Business needs are often counterintuitive to the natural position of a developer.

The reason I believe this, is because I'm a developer who moved into the business world. I see this utterly and fundamentally different now. Even how I approach writing code is different.

Business needs are very difficult to understand for anyone who has not sat in a true business role: customer facing, selling i.e. direct sales etc.. A few people have a 'natural born' business instinct, but it's rare.

Even people in regular marketing jobs (i.e. not marketing ops, like branding, creative) I find don't have an instinct for it.

I like specific goals, that are attached to timings. They're not always going to be made, but both of those things are important.

Developers moving in the wrong direction is more common in software than not.
Just stopping by to say I love your branding. Such a clever play on “press kit” and really evokes something taking off. Well done. :)

> At this point wars between powerful nations are almost impossible.

That is exactly what "everybody" assumed before 1914, as pointed by the article.
Do you know well this router runs Wireguard using OpenWRT?
I'd like to think this is true, but I think it's naive - there was similar sentiment before WWI too.

Nationalism and hysteria can lead people do things that are bad for both individuals and the group. Increasing free trade between countries and globalism is a good way to try and prevent wars, but the current reversion to nationalism makes me nervous.
Most databases don't have "root level snapshots of the state" in the way you appear to imagine them. Leaving trivial per-transaction information ('did this transaction id commit', ~a few bits per xact) aside, usually it won't scale with the number of snapshots, but with the amount of change done by writing transactions.
Interesting, so how does the winch system work is it actually pulled and released from each pole base? Are they going to be modularized so they can pass tools along multiple such systems? Have you thought about harvesting and collecting?

If that's your definition of junk food, then so is half of the stuff you can order in regular, expensive restaurants.
Legged are impractical now and for the near future, but I suspect the cost will decline substantially within 10 years.
From what I have read, pizza is the most popular food on the planet. It is hardly limited to tech events.

So that may be a factor. In a world full of people who are either vegan and looking down their nose at you if you aren't or only eat keto or some other niche thing and where people complain about food allergies and yadda, pizza is the least worst option that will have the most universal appeal.
Relent control and fall in love with someone or something? Cynically speaking, being deeply in love is the most powerful and natural drug out there.
you're right, fixed.
Order a whole wheat crust.
I still have a $1.5K system doing the same. I'm pretty sure it suggests that after Moore's Law computers now last significantly longer than they used to.

Only major hardware improvement in that period is Nvidia's GTX 1060/1070/1080 series graphics cards and faster PCI based SSD storage. CPUs and memory have barely moved.

Premise: the large nations of the world are far to intertwined by commerce and culture. Large scale war would be suicidal and the leadership of these countries would never do something so foolish.

That wasn't flippant. Comics were already pushing $2 an issue by the time I noticed them. TV, movies, and Netflix are my only exposure to his creations.

The cameo is something just about everyone knows about and enjoys. People who couldn't afford comics growing up and couldn't get into them later know it. It's iconic. That's great.
Do the others really matter, then, in this context?
That's literally what this article says to avoid thinking and it gives examples as to how wrong people were when they said that. You're just repeating that without giving anything new.
Getting Chrome SSL warnings on both the OP link and https://get.dev/

Doesn't really evoke confidence, if this is a Google initiative. Can someone post a short precis as to what this is about for those of us who cannot visit the URLs?

UPDATE: Apologies - My bad, not Google's fault. I had a local Valet/NGINX redirect for local .dev domains setup for Laravel development projects that was causing the issue.
The advertising budgets spent on DFP (now the overwhelming majority of budgets) makes it obvious. Youtube makes money. It prints money by information trading on top of that. Subscriptions on top of that. Google covers costs. Maybe not all that money comes back to Youtube as a department, but published revenue numbers are a game for an organization of that size.

A guaranteed adserv on every CDN delivery (and again over a certain number of minutes) is more than the content and serve cost. CPMs for video are net 3$, at least. I don't know who's doing the math, but a link would be interesting with someone demonstrating how they are upside down.
> The thing to remember about email is that it is a conversation.

I think this is a big claim and not obviously true enough to just assume. Email is just a medium, and can be any kind of communication within that - just like not all spoken communication is a conversation.
Also note that not being "a healthy person" may not be your fault. Some people's digestive systems weaken over time, causing them to often feel less full when eating (and thus eat more without realizing it).

Well this is surprising.
SF's housing market is heavily impacted by the 1 story building height limits in cities up and down the peninsula, plus in south bay.
Last I heard on RSA-OAEP vs RSA-PKCS is that, since RSA-PKCS got a 'security proof' it is actually favored. Reason being that it gives similar guarantees but is easier to compute.

I don't know the details of the security proof for RSA-PKCS though, just that there is one.
1. Alice, Bob and Charlie want to share a Cake so that none of them envies other pieces

2. Charlie cuts the cake into three pieces that are equally valuable from his perspective

3. Alice identifies her first choice.

4. Bob identifies his first choice from the remaining two. Charlie gets the remaining one.

5. Bob trims either his or Alices piece.

6. Alice identifies her first choice.

Simpler. Is there a fault i don't see?

Nationalism.

This has been rising up like a plague in recent years and it isn't going away any time soon.

When ego and emotion come into play, the question of what is the point because a matter of pride and the point is just to win regardless of the costs.
That's definitely the case, and the entire adtech community knows it. GDPR is another example of lawmakers having no insight or cooperation with the industry they're regulating and creating unintended consequences.
For the record, it's the exact reverse for me - I avoid (and complain about) events that decide to ditch pizza and start serving "healthy food".

Not saying it (just) to be opposite, just to highlight that there are (at least) two populations with strong and incompatible preferences :). Or in other words, a space for products catering to each individually.
My work computer is 8 cores, 32gb and a GPU; why do you imagine that a hosted instance somewhere running the web server is going to do a better or faster job than my local computer? Hell, even my laptop is going to do a better job than a cloud server.
I was also just in San Francisco (also from Brooklyn!) and noticed this as well. Downtown SF has all the look and feel of a global city, think Manhattan or Tokyo. Once you get into the western half of the city it seems like a nice quaint European city half it's size. I definitely understand why rich land owners want to "preserve the character of the neighborhoods" but you can't have it both ways.

The most puzzling thing was that I did see a few new residential constructions going up and they were also of the 1-3 story variety.

These points largely are speculative and could be applied broadly to any super power.
I don't think many would argue that the content was in any way worse back when the internet was used by a much smaller population. At the end of the day, the content that is really useful and that you actually want is rarely created by an army of everyday internet users. It's created by the dedicated and the ingenious, and those are the types that will migrate quickly to the hidden places.
Be careful with that draft - the smart replies 'reply all'. Found this one out the hard way.
Bandwidth is SO cheap though. Even bulk "overage" usually runs about $1/100GB. That's nothing.

When servers got slashdotted it was almost, even way back then, running out of CPU/Database connections, not bandwidth.

I often reply to non actionable emails/IMs with a thumbs up emoji indicating that I have read the message and have nothing to add. This means the other side know they don't have to try to contact me again because I have seen it.
Out of curiosity, would you consider constexpr to be bloat?

I feel like it has tons of applications, especially for embedded C programmers. One example that comes to mind: CRC calculation. Most microcontroller CRC libraries are lookup-based, or a mixture of a lookup table and other methods.

Currently, a lookup table can be done only 3 ways in C: pre-compute it and store 'magic numbers' (either while developing, or with some custom pre-processing), compute at program initialization (which costs code-space and startup time), or a compile-time computation based on some very ugly macros.

With constexpr support, I could just write a C function that calculates the table values. Then I could use it to populate a constexpr table at compile time, or even use the function at runtime if I needed to do some debugging.

C already has sizeof, which is a compile-time computation. Why not let users write their own compile-time functions too?

I recently wrote a command-lookup library in C++14. Using constexpr, I could precompute the hashes of each string and populate a switch() statement. Plus I could use the exact same function to hash my incoming strings, even if they're of unknown length. That's not possible in C at all, not even with loop-based macro trickery.
Take time to peruse the rest of the Wiki; It's chock full of information of performance tuning techniques. Absolutely fascinating.
"Agile" hasn't even looked like a word to me in years. It's become nearly meaningless.
And then there is this activity called "working with other people".

Also, gratuitous changes to the compiler can break things that affect C90 operation. There is a risk.
I've been a restaurant owner for decades. It will be interesting to see if this works. Has it ever?

The reason I ask is because, at my places, we occasionally give free food to organizations in our neighborhood because they are in our neighborhood with the attendees also from my neighborhood and it's similar to advertising. They see our napkins and included flyers or coupons and, hopefully, we'll make some of them a regular customer. At these events, however, wouldn't most of the attendees not be from our neighborhood?

Most pizza joints are franchise or personally owned. That means this would be an out of pocket expense for the owner. You may find someone to do this once but I don't see how he would benefit once he finds out no one from his neighborhood is coming in.

This is just my initial reaction to seeing this.
The Google Translate version of the summary https://www.kufs.ac.jp/toshokan/gallery/data22.htm is pretty uhm... odd

Read the title of the book as "Farewell Time Letter". Lu Bun is a prominent man who played a role as a playwriter from the end of the Tokugawa period to the beginning of the Meiji era, his real name is Bossi Nozaki, from Edo, and besides this book there are works such as "Western Canal Knee Chest". According to the introduction of this book, based on the "Seikokushiji" etc., which Wei Genji was established, others, based on other "Mr. Satoshi Ichinomiyoshi", this book is played and the contents are clearly understood by women and children It is said that it made it into a pseudonym book and put it in.
The outline of this book began with colon (閤 龍) petitioning to Isabela king and discovering the New Continent, eventually the British reigned and rushed to regulate, but Washington appeared and established independence and founding founder Progress has been made interestingly, with some fictional figures and youkai appearing.
Therefore, this book is kind of a novel and a novel based on the course of the founding of the United States

I'm pretty sure my high school history class would have been more fun with youkai appearing.

How to self-publish a book: A handy list of resources
Its quite important that its not so much about "non-convexity", its more about "random initialization". All these results, and there are others, more sophisticated, basically say that after random init everything is already good, and the gradient descent just has to train the highest layer, without screwing up the previous ones. They are all pretty naive that way.
Hey. Thanks for the book.

Btw, page 25. I assume this is some pdf exporting error:

Or nobody online is ever able to do this, online video streaming dies and TV keeps on living on artificial life support.
Except that in Objective-C it's a runtime feature, which is by definition slower. Swift's Codable implementation is generated by the compiler or is hand-written with an obvious benefit of a stronger type system.

That's where some of my cynicism started. I fell in love with someone, help them go through a hard time in their life, and they left me after I helped them get back on their feet. I was told I was not as smart or as funny as their ex, and have had little success with dating since. end rant.
Well, Linus is obsessed with "don't break userspace", so as long as there is N > 0 users who use that implementation detail, it will stay forever and become documented limitation of Linux kernel :(
I'm at NASA JSC. We're using Open MCT in a few research projects to monitor simulated spacewalks. We've got dashboards where we're tracking a mix of human physiology data (heart rate, CO2 flow, etc) and spacesuit telemetry (that's mostly simulated at this point).

Great tool! We're looking at relying on it more heavily. I'm actually planning on developing a new widget for Open MCT in the near future :)
> There's a fundamental difference between curating content like a newspaper does vs what Youtube and similar sites do. It's a whitelist vs blacklist approach: a newspaper approves things one by one and only has so much content, while Youtube allows anything by default and then removes thing in certain categories.

That distinction is no solace if your copyright is being violated or you are being defamed in an unaddressable way.

The PR discusses how the original word list that was referenced was changed out to the better long word list from https://www.eff.org/dice .
Crimea is Ukraine. Donetsk and Crimea were captured by Russia because Ukraine signed contract with Shell to develop natural gas field near Donetsk, and because dispute with Romania about natural field in Black Sea was ended, so Gasprom owners worried about competition at European market.

Syria - to stop natural gas pipeline from Qatar’s north Field through Syria on to Turkey and to the EU. Gasprom owners are worried again.

Afghanistan, Iraq - because of 9/11.
This is an interesting effort, How can this be compared with the Sandstorm project? TIA!!

They proved they have no conscience with the Chinese baby formula scandal[1]: putting melamine in baby formula to save a little money, knowing that doing so would be poisoning infant children.

On your last point, it's easier to see all props the component depends on when you destructure them upfront like that.
For many reasons, I would love to hear more about your model.

Just be aware that I (and others) are immediately on guard whenever something asks for email (or any personal info, for that matter). _Especially_ if that info is a barrier to something like a book. For better or for worse, it looks an awful lot like the typical email-harvesting-for-spam techniques.

> making a quick buck with "pay as you want"

If you're writing books and people are getting value out of them, I'd argue you deserve even more than a quick buck. Don't sell yourself short.

I don't think anybody would see pay what you want as a cash grab, either.
To me, there is a better word for those things, and I don't understand why we do not use it. That word is: propaganda. Is there a good argument that fake news etc. Is not propaganda? To me calling it propaganda paints a clearer picture, because new words make it easy to claim that something is unprecedented. The problem is that if our own government falls victim to propaganda, then we have propagandistic narratives being pushed by the government, and that, to me, is as bad as it sounds. But, I think it also gives us a broader perspective to pull from history with
