There's quantity, but what about quality? Whenever there's a vulnerability found in a C program, its authors are dismissed not real C programmers (since a real programmer would know to avoid buffer overflows and dangling pointers).

Apart from DJB, is there any other real C programmer? ;)

Yep you can make sense of it. Everyone can, and does. It happens every time cars stop at a red stop light.

I don’t know how red looks to you, but every time you see red, you know it’s red. Even if red looks to you like green looks to me, when we both approach a red stop light we will both stop. We can be sure of that. Even though we may perceive the same red stop light differently, we can still interpret it to mean “stop”.

Same for taste. You know when you’re eating a Big Mac and when you’re not. Even if it tastes different to you than it does for me. And more importantly, a Big Mac tastes like a Bic Mac to you every time. The results are repeatable, so long as you’re the constant.

So yep perception is inconsistent between people, but within an individual you do have consistency. The individual is the reference point.

Anyways hope people don’t take this as some sort of endorsement for trademarking taste. It’s more of an observation about the nature of perception.
The driver grosses that much, but has to cover gas and the cost of the car itself out of their share. The actual amount the driver keeps appears to be on the order of $10 an hour, so I doubt we'll see very cheap rides any time soon.

I work on Bitcoin and Bitcoin-related software.

#1 is false.

Bitcoin has an artificial transaction cap because it's conservative. It's been raised before and will be raised in the future.

#2 is false, though a different concern is present.

Bitcoin doesn't require a user store the entire chain, older transactions can be pruned. It does need to be sent over the network and processed which _is_ a concern.

Ultimately it shouldn't be the case that every single transaction has to pass through every node but only settlements. Solutions for this are being worked on.

#3 is false.

Transaction fees pay for mining.

I got bored at that point, though it does seem to get more reasonable, because BofE staffers' likely know more about economics than technology. Their comments on the distribution possibly have some merit (but then, I think the 'traditional' wealth distribution is probably far worse than we think it is; it's difficult to know because it's more opaque).

I think "too late" could mean "too late to avoid a massively destructive economic catastrophe" without meaning "global extinction".
>There is not much of a pedestrian culture.

Arizona has the highest rate of pedestrian deaths in the US. Pedestrians have apparently been trained to keep off the streets.

It's also not immediately clear if this will be in the city of Phoenix itself. The earlier testing was in the suburb of Chandler.
Can't help but feel like Blue Apron and its competitors are the next generation of Groupon and its competitors. Burnt through VC funding competing with each other only to find out the actual market for their product isn't that great.

But thanks for all the free trials, VC investors! I've had a few above average dinners out of it.
What makes you say that? Computers drive a self-driving car, and they've been at scale for a long time.

It might require moving to the Tesla camera-only approach to bring down costs enough to make self-driving cars viable. But that technology is still nowhere near there.
The article itself is an example of the same phenomenon!

It is absolutely possible. I did C++ development as a regular job years ago, now I'm coding in C (for that type of coding).

What will get you off the C++ drug easily is Lisp.

Once I discovered Lisp, C++ had no place in my "personal spectrum" any more, but C (including the C-like subset of C++) still did. Well, it wasn't so sudden, mind you. More like: the more Lisp I knew, the less interest I had in C++.

(Idiotic lambda implementations and whatnot will not woo me back, sorry.)

Well, not your fault, most of the resources out there are just made to make a buck, or a click, it's pretty much hopeless nowadays. What I do usually is I try to find used books, they're cheap and often better. Doesn't work for all subjects obviously.

For C++, I'd download a working draft of the standard, that + examples on stackoverflow will teach you more than a 6 foot stacks of the latest books on the subject.
That’s looks as professional as anything I’ve put together!

... but overflowing them is still UB?

One advantage of pinning down two's complement is that the result of arithmetic is known down to the bit level, even when it overflows.

Also, certain bit operations. For instance, if we know that the representation is two's complement, we are justified in expecting sign extension on a right shift: the sign bit is repeated to fill the top bit positions. (The shift of a signed number should be "arithmetic"; that of unsigned "logical".)

Also, truncations (converting a wider type to a narrower type) should have predictable results. For instance if we chop the value -238 to 8 bits, we should get 18, because -238 is 0xFF..FF12, which truncates to 0x12.

And linked from there, the Toms Canyon impact crater:[0]

> The crater dates to the late Eocene geological time period (about 35 million years ago), and may have been formed by the same event as the larger Chesapeake Bay impact crater (and possibly the Popigai crater in Siberia), 320 kilometres (200 mi) to the southwest at the mouth of Chesapeake Bay, and also dating to the late Eocene.

I feel like a lot of people had overly optimistic ideas about self-driving cars and then these pessimistic views developed as a backslash.
insurance companies are the vehicle through which the financial lunacy of suburban sprawl will be squeezed to death.
I am actively job interviewing and I have talked to a lot of startups. One of things I always ask my interviewer is whether or not the company is profitable.

If you get to be that large of a company (100 workers => 4% of staff => ~2500 employees) and you are not making a profit, there is something wrong. Bringing all of those people onboard seems like a waste of investor money.

That said, I am a fan of Blue Apron and I do hope that their figure out a way to operate in a profitable manner soon.

Edit: as replies point out, profitability isn’t a great indicator for the success of a company. While it is fair game to ask, there are other better indicators (churn and burn, existing customer base, etc) that give a better picture. My point was that I think a company at this size should be profitable or working aggressively to make that possible. I think Blue Apron is laying these people off to accomplish that.
I actually agree and want to increase my main body font size. It’s also probably time to go serif, as sans-serifs are best suited for low resolutions (like for body text on all computers and mobile phones up to ~8 years ago) and serifs shine in high resolution (like on the printed page); today high-density screens are more common. Even “1x” monitors are wide enough that the increased font size they make possible increases the number of pixels available per rendered character. In the mean time, browser zoom will work well!
My business is it of the Seattle area. I would be willing to hire workers for a subsidy of only $40,000 per job because I’m community minded!
Actually, sites which claim they are one thing (Adobe, a bank's web site) when they obviously aren't are, in fact, illegal.

But hey - if you want to pretend that a site which pretends to be Bank of America is somehow in some grey area, then by all means be a phishing apologist.
This is trivial.

Driverless cars are "always on" so it's not an apt comparison because you're going to always get more from less. Besides, ridesharing is already subsidized right now, so bottom line isn't an issue in the market.

Likewise, ride-sharing with self driving cars is even easier since if you own a self driving car it can work on it's own while you are not using it, which is most of the time. There's no reason a similar asset sharing model won't spring up after economies of scale.

You could also argue that it's cheaper to pay workers with their own textile equipment, rather than spend the CapEx on a weaving loom, yet here we are.

The way this works (on these routes)

The shortest route is the busiest in terms of traffic.

The longer ones are scenic, less cars for most parts, no traffic lights and much better workout.

The mid-range one is the one I like using the most, I get to do a lot of speed work and work on my sustained power.
This is sad for me. I had a Cromemco S-III system and two 32K Static RAM cards that were sold by Godbout. They had been recommended to me as 'tanks' and were much more reliable than the dynamic memory cards of the time.

Is it the algorithmic efficiency that's the problem, or the ability to scale the application?

I've seen things some people wouldn't believe. mod_perl 1.4 on Apache 2.0 handling 350,000 hps dynamic traffic on twenty archaic 1U's. Five tiers of caching, serialized objects on local disks, NFS in production. C-beams glittering in the dark near the Tannhäuser gate. Who cares about inefficiency if it scales?
Ignorance is.. ?
Thank you for telling that story. I had never heard of AA and just read his wikipedia page. What an impressive man.
That comparison tool illustrates the problem.

Look at the beam from the ~150UKP Cateye or Niterider (not cheap lights), see how the man standing ~10m away is perfectly lit up, bright as day? That means he's got the full beam in his eyes. As would an incoming cyclist or motorist

Compare to the B&M IXON series beam, see how even 45 meters away, the beam cutoff is so sharp that someone standing down there would have their head above the beam cutoff.

https://www.bumm.de/en/products/dynamo-scheinwerfer/produkt/...

The main LED points backwards on those lights so not only do they have better control over beam pattern, but there's no incidental light coming direct from the LED -- the entire beam leaving the light is shaped by the reflector.
Both the "congestion" and "storage" paradoxes fail to even mention Lightning Network (LN):

http://lightning.network

LN operates on a different kind of network from the Bitcoin P2P mainnet. More users with more open channels means in principle faster routing, lower fees, and fewer dropped transactions.

There's a big caveat, however. LN security degrades in the event of mass channel closure in which the mainnet P2P network can become flooded with transactions that fail to confirm quickly enough, leading to loss of funds.
> Totally out of my depth here, but how is it possible that they "didn't tell anyone" about a feature so crucial, how could pilots not know how the plane's computer will behave in such a fundamental, non edge-case scenario?

I couldn't even hazard a guess. Boeing told the Brazilian authorities about it. See the table on Page 18 under MCAS.

http://www.anac.gov.br/assuntos/setor-regulado/profissionais...

For comparison here's the FAA equivalent:

http://fsims.faa.gov/wdocs/fsb/b-737_rev%2014.pdf

Note that MCAS is distinctly absent from the difference tables (also) on page 18.

The FAA signed off on the NG to MAX training as "B" level differences. This means no sim time necessary[1] (although apparently American Airlines doesn't have a MAX sim in the first place). The Brazilians were made aware of MCAS and thought that also qualified as a "B" level difference. The question then is: did the FAA think MCAS constituted a C or D level difference?

Can we talk about Molekule? Their team and some SF tech community folks have been plugging it all over Twitter during this tragic wildfire crisis. But it seems like snake oil to me. It’s $800. Certainly for smoke particles it can’t possibly offer any more protection than a standard HEPA filter. But even for its claimed ability to nuke VOCs, the claim seems ridiculous. While particles can deterioriate under prolonged exposure, the airflow must be too high and the exposure too short to make much of a difference.

What gets me is how these guys misuse “science marketing” to play on people’s fears about germs. Add the shameless exploitation of a real tragedy here.
Most homes in San Francisco have zero heat. Many added a gas wall heater in the late ‘50’s but they are a ridulcus heating method.

No need for 'atleast'.

lol, no other market is more regulated than insurance, except maaaybe utilities. you can almost think of them as a financial utility because they are given special state licenses to allow them to collude on setting prices, which they basically have to do because of how extensively regulated they are.

Makes me wonder, is there any formal representation for smells like we have with colors?
Look, I saying that there is no way a law is going to get passed and there is a very high likelihood that such a law would be ineffective due to the basic nature of the powers a city needs to govern itself. I gave an example of another such law (H1B) that is worked around when its scope is even stricter than the governing of a city and the powers needed for such.

It's very easy to make subsidizing individual companies illegal. was your original statement. Now we have Just literally make it illegal to subsidize, and then it'll stop. Obviously that's no small feat.

The crafting of such a law without destroying the governance of a city is an amazingly hard problem to which I have not seen one city, state, or petition that has attempted it.
I've never been so great with figuring out loops to iterate over things and the like.

And some of the questions being posed (which are all expected to be solved in C) are a little tricky for me to figure out on my own without some of the niceties which I have been exposed to in higher level languages.

Perhaps the hardest of these was the Credit Card Validation example.

I was stuck for such a long time on trying to figure out how to utilise an array with for loops to multiply every second number of the card backwards.

This is Introduction to Computer Science and all of this is from week 1, so I was pretty much falling at the first hurdle.

7 Ways to Speed Up Broadband Connection
I agree. Improper de-icing + aft-mounted engine is the main cause of this disaster (although ice on wing itself is already a problem as it reduces lift and could cause stalls). My (rather subtle) point is that Boeing can’t really go “oh this has never happened before”.

In fact, as a general rule of thumb, I believe any safety feature that would automatically change the state of the aircraft should be well educated to the pilots.
hes exactly right. do you people really believe russia wants a america first policy, strong military, strong borders, strong economy etc? or would they rather have pc lunatics constantly whining about white privilege, criminalizing anything conservative and allowing anyone who wants to cross the border (spies anyone?)
Me too. I even invented slightly famous stuff.

It's like this:

There's reality.

Then there's a map of reality which is, for obvious reasons, pretty fucking far from reality.

Then there's the map of the map, which is delusionoid-squared.

In this case you are dealing with the level2 map. Most of us don't take it too seriously.
Good point, that happens with bright tail lights too -- many times I've been approaching someone on the bike path with a super bright tail light, and it's really hard to tell exactly how close I am to them as I approach. And it's completely impossible to see if anyone is coming the other way so it's hard to pass.

I just replied above, but I've never been amazing at being able to figure out how I should be using for loops to solve problems quickly and efficiently.

I do tend to make things harder for myself, as my boss and fianceè have told me before.

I usually end up with a very convoluted solution which I end up coming back to and refactoring the next day.
You’re exactly right. I have heard typographers express the maximum readable width as "two and a half alphabets," which is roughly 40em. A max-width of 40em is extremely responsive, making the most of your screen (on mobile) without overextending and compromising reading comfort (on desktop).
Bicycle commuting is awesome; just remember that vehicle drivers do insane things. Do not assume that a green light by itself means it’s safe to cross. Drivers do insane things. After a while, you get a sixth sense of who is going to do what. You go over things in your head a thousand times that will one day save your life. Like, if that truck pulls out in front of you, do you bounce off his broadside and try to roll out of oncoming traffic, or do you cut right and try to get behind his rear wheel instead of underneath it. A few days ago I was waiting to cross a street and two cars blew through a red light at the same time, one of them turned left, and the other car smashed them head on and sent the car spinning right over to where I had been standing. I got out of the way, ditched the bike, and started pulling people out of the cars, fully expecting an explosion or something gruesome inside. Nothing left of the front end of either car, but airbags are a darn miracle. The worst either of them will have to deal with is a few dollars higher premiums. Moral hazard. Watch out.
Don't think that's necessarily a really good metric in this day and age, as there are "good" kinds of unprofitability and "bad" kinds of unprofitability. Amazon was unprofitable for most of its existence until relatively recently. Most successful startups are unprofitable, and these days with the "winner take all" mentality of most VCs a company would be penalized for being profitable too early.

I think a much better metric, especially for early stage companies, is their growth rate, their customer acquisition cost, and very importantly, their customer churn rate. Blue Apron's churn rate coupled with their high CAC has always been a giant flashing red flag.
"Launch" invokes a mental image of a rocket taking off, but that isn't really an apt metaphor. Waymo has already had vehicles on some routes move passengers without safety drivers onboard. They've been charging some EZ Riders for their rides. When they do 'launch', the service still will not be available to the general public. The major thing they'll be doing is unveiling their new brand, whatever it is. They've been gradually expanding the scale, range, and capabilities of their fleet in the Phoenix metro area and they will continue to do so.
