Really unclear what communism has to do with any of this (population growth fell in the Warsaw bloc countries after the fall of communism BTW, and a country like Japan has negligible communist influence).

It's also unclear why the population derivative need be significantly positive, or, really, positive at all.
I don't find your analogy analogous either. Not only did you equate physical property to IP, but even if you accept that equivalence for the purpose of argument, your analogy seems like it would be better if...

Home Depot gives (more like leases, when taking into account that copyright doesn't allow transitive redistribution... no first sale doctrine for intangible/unfixed IP) the aviators to Bob for free, knowing that Bob will take a bunch, set up a table outside that looks like he's giving away free sunglasses, but when you pick up a pair a Home Depot employee comes out, snatches them away from you, and starts pressuring you to get you to buy a pair.

I'd classify that as a persuasion pattern, which is partly why this is so polarizing (bad pun, sorry...). You had the aviators in your hand, or in Google's case, you read a snippet they had indexed. You can practically taste it, metaphorically speaking, and then comes the hard sell. Either you pay them for the thing because you were so close to getting it and aren't going to let a few dollars stop you, or you get angry because you had the thing you thought you were about to get snatched away from you. The seller is counting on that, by grabbing for the product, you're committed to getting it even if you discover it actually costs money.
No whiteboard code, no algorithms questions. If you want them to code, let them do it on their own time in a comfortable environment. The industry needs to stop the bullshit leetcode meme that millenials are propagating.
Trying not be acerbic but, an article on divorce that doesn't even mention children? Ridiculous and puerile. A divorce without children is a walk in the park. You can sign a few papers, say goodbye, and _never_ have to see that person again. The truth is that it's better for children if parents in a low-conflict marriage to stay together. It's not the right path for everyone, marriage is really complicated and some children are better off with divorced parents. But, that's not a pithy essay targeted at Millennials.

Also: "inconvenient" truth, is it really? Seems vary convenient that the article supports the idea of dumping the guilt you might feel in when dumping your spouse. This is giving comfort to the reader not introducing a truth that makes the reader reconsider the impact of their actions. An inconvenient truth might be that most people that stay married are happy they did.

DynamoDB is different from their published paper, which is mostly about designing a highly available key/value system that can be run on top of any other datastore. The paper does mention MySQL as a storage option.

The recent MySQL info comes from this 2016 thread on DynamoDB storing empty strings: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13170746

Confirmed by this comment specifically: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13173927

The latest 2018 ReInvent deep dive on DynamoDB doesn't reveal anything but still fits if mysql is powering the storage nodes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvBR71D0nAQ

The message, the sabotage, was that being a wife and mother with young children in a middle class neighborhood in Long Island was a terrible situation. That message spread around the world and had people take family formation nowhere nearly seriously enough.

Yes, the message also went to Poland, along with France, Italy, Germany, especially Spain, and, yes, the US.

The Friedan message was one of the first of a flood of such, all claiming that people and especially women had some much better things go do than have families.

Evaluate the evidence of the causes as you will. Maybe notice that the enemies of the US benefited. The results are beyond question.

I can't prove this with the Radon-Nikodym theorem, the standard model of physics, a software proof of correctness, a solid engineering document, or a winning legal brief, but I can't ignore the message and its results.

E.g., she told me "I don't want to get married."; "Women don't have to just be cared for. Women can do things too. I want a career."; "Having children just perpetuates the present and doesn't make any progress."; "I don't want to give up the best years of my life and my career just to have some man's children." She got these messages from Friedan, etc. She tried. She failed. At her mother's farm, for two days she was missing and her body was found floating in a lake. She would have done JUST FINE if I had just gotten her PREGNANT when we first met when she was 19; easy enough to do -- her brain said no; her emotions said YES. Then have kept her pregnant. Then learned enough about clinical psychology to have solved her problems with the toxic message from Friedan. I have a friend, bright guy, Courant Ph.D., Member, Institute for Advanced Study, who rates Friedan as the greatest cause of death ever, worse than Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Hitler, Tojo, all put together -- just count the babies stopped with birth control or abortion in the more advanced countries, done. In an important sense, he's correct.

Positive slope is not necessary and maybe not even desirable. Negative slope is extinction.
TL;DR -- it uses `instanceof`
Say you start with a small system of equations and you find out how you can solve them. Then you solve a bunch more, but then you start to notice that you don't like writing out the x, y, and z's, so you just keep the coefficients, in a box of sorts. Then you translate what you were doing into operations on the rows of this ... matrix you call it. After solving some more equations, you start to forget where these things come from. Surely they come from equations, but because the coefficients, plus signs and equal signs disappear, you are left with a box of numbers really.

What happens next is that different questions start to come to mind. The matrix attains a life of its own. You start to think questions like "Well, we have some x, y, z's and this box of numbers somehow transforms them into the right hand side's a, b, c's". Ok, the matrix is some kind of "transformation" now. You look at its properties. It appears that aX + bY can be computed entry-wise, so maybe this is a fundamental property and you call it linearity. Hmm. At some point you forget about the boxes of numbers and now you have bonafide transformations. From what? To where? You call these...vector spaces. And so on.

Further down the line you become preoccupied by questions of a different flavour, like what happens if you want something like Ax = cx. That is, we get x back with minimal distortion. Fairly simple question that leads to a lot of math.

It also just happens that when you consider mathematical functions of several dimensions, and matrices become apparent when you consider linear approximations. You've built this great theory for them and now that theory seems to really help in these kinds of problems. That is, a LOT of computational problems in this world.

I agree, this is the best explanation of JavScript's new/this/prototype/__proto__ I've seen yet. It was definitely worth the read.
Command-line interface can indeed be very convenient for many tasks, nevertheless a properly designed GUI can always be made a way better than a TUI so I can see no reason to stick with terminal-based editors given a choice. And I wish people would stop dichotomizing command-line and GUI and start integrating their capabilities to build something synergic. I.e. I'd love to have a terminal featuring powerful inteligent pop-up autocompletion and correction, visual shell command construction assistance, file choice dialogue (so I could choose a file the GUI way and get its name pasted into the command) etc.
Checking the examples is the first thing I did. No example uses MySQL connector.

There are only example CMake calls to find_library, that will or will not find this library based on things that are not documented.

AWS Lambda still uses Amazon Linux AMI as the base for running all code. MySQL C++ connector library is not available to be easily installed by yum for this particular OS.

In particular, the library is distributed as an RPM, from Oracle website, which requires you to be logged in to download it, and then manually installed.

Also, an appropriate CMake find script has to be available to CMake.

Therefore, this is still a valid question, and AWS support needs to clarify.

For the previous Lambda version, I had to add the mysqlcppconn.so file to the uploaded zip and use something like this to ensure the executable runs:

"/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --library-path "+process.cwd() +"/node_modules/.bin/lib "+process.cwd() +"/node_modules/.bin/helloworld "

Shit that makes me feel old. In my mind that “modern times.” It wasn’t long ago—I could my first SDSL connection around then. I had a Pentium II!

I've used this same argument against package managers on Linux many times, but apparently people want to keep doing things the centralized way, because all I get when I do is people telling me that I don't know what I'm talking about, and that package managers and centralized repos are easier to use.
>They need to publish their full article content for search crawlers to read

At first, I thought it might be possible to solve this by getting search engines to standardize on a vector format that they could accept for protected content. So the crawler sees a 300-dimensional vector that effectively gives a semantic summary of the document.

But then I thought content providers could achieve a substantially-similar effect by just serving their documents to search engines in scrambled (e.g. alphabetized) form. They could still provide normal headlines to get them clicks.

BUT THEN I thought it would be a really cool and bizarre problem to circumvent this by attempting to devise a method for finding the most-probable original document given its alphabetized version.
By inlining assets they just include them as Base64 and then getAssetUrl. Yeah, that seems like the right way to be doing things imo. Honestly, it's better and provides a non-proprietary standard document format thats as simple or powerful as you need it to be and it could even offer an "in" to coding that currently isn't there for a lot of people. I guess it's because even though it's better people don't like change.
You're correct, I misread. Thank you.
Wrong, try again.
I would love to be interviewed like this. Even though the candidate does end up spending time doing work outside of work, they'd end up doing that anyway if prepping for an algorithms interview. At least with an assignment you can be finished instead of doing endless leetcode prep. Plus it gives you a chance to practice relevant software engineering skills in a different environment.
The barrier is only temporary anyway. But if extreme high tides get worse in the future, then the times that the system would get activated would also increase. That could cause the lagoon to be deprived of oxygen.
Those rules don't ban text posts, which is what I was talking about. Having meaningful discussions about travel without promoting a travel blog or ogling over a photoshopped picture from a designated "instagram photo spot" is possible, and used to be commonplace on r/travel, but just isn't anymore.
I have been interviewing recently and started turning down any coding assignment that will take more than a couple of hours. To get a reasonable number of offers to enable you to negotiate requires going through the interview process for several companies since some percentage of them will turn you down. After a phone screen I don’t have enough information about the role to be able to potentially waste 10-20 hours on a toy problem.

A few companies gave a simple api project or a timed hacker rank and those feel reasonable. An entire web app with database, rest api, front end and CI pipeline following production code best practices does not.
Does that apply to online banking as well?

If it's legitimate for a bank to hide your data behind a username and password, how is a journalism-provider any different?
Not going to happen - I think the supply of software developers has started to outweigh the demand, so there's no way that companies are going to offer compensation to interviewees. If anything, the difficulty bar is just going to continue to go up. If there were a shortage there wouldn't be so many of these silly hoops to jump through.

It's not really worth it to interview nowadays. Practicing leetcode for months, flying, doing all day onsites, when all the company has to do is interview you for a few hours.

We've been issuing take-homes lately, and we ask that candidates spend no more than 3 hours on them. Well, it turns out almost no one spends only 4 hours on them... The most recent candidate we interviewed spent about 3 days on theirs judging from the commit logs. It was a fully fleshed out application with unit tests and everything. After all that they still have to pass the all day on-site, lol. Anyway I spend all of 2 minutes looking at each submission

I really wish there were a better signal.

I think users should direct their attention towards Mozilla. They're the ones who decided that it is appropriate to take the extension down, and they're in the best position to fight it (compared to individual extension developers). There's a chance that this decision was done by a low-level reviewer and does not represent the official stance of Mozilla.

Also, anything that gets (or forces) the actors behind this to issue a takedown request against GitHub is good, because then there's a chance GitHub will tell them to pound sand (sending a strong signal to others that unconditional compliance with such demands may not be the only, or best, course of action) or actively fight it.
It’s a lovely idea to design spaces for interaction, but I think there could be something said for quiet and privacy too. We probably need a balance.

I believe loneliness is an epidemic. I felt lonely recently for the first time. I’m mid 20s and in a relationship, lots of friends in my city, many in walking distance, but even so a few months ago I felt intensely lonely. I can’t imagine what it must be like for someone who moved cities. What worked for me is writing down a list of people I want to see more and then reaching out and planning activities. I find if I have one date night and see one friend a week it’s enough to keep me going and feel good. More is better of course.
That’s not true. If you have ten years experience with Python, but don’t know about, say, @property decorators or how variable scoping works, that raises some red flags.
Not always. I believe a common understanding is if it statically links with GPL code, then it spreads to your code. If it dynamically links then your program is not hit with GPL, as the user is able to change the dynamic library with their own. If what you dewxribed were the case, then the Tivoization lawsuit would have went differently instead of GPLv3 coming out.
You probably need to continue reading the post :)

I’m a little confused — can you explain how this is a generation’s fault?

It certainly seems that millennials are subjugated to this type of process, and it’s possible that millennials are the ones giving these types of interviews more often than not, but as far as I can tell these interviews propagated because large, well-regarded, highly successful companies (Google etc.) started performing them and then smaller companies just copied their formula. I’m not quite sure where the generational connection is.
> To get a reasonable number of offers to enable you to negotiate

You only need 1 offer to negotiate.
YugaByte DB's design is that a YB cluster supports Postgres in a native, self-contained & scale-out manner (much like YugaByte's Cassandra and Redis flavored offerings).

At a high-level, the upper half of the Postgres DB is being largely reused. The lower-half, i.e. the distributed table storage layer, uses YugaByte's underlying core-- a transactional and distributed document-based storage engine.

For the DB to be scalable, the lower-half being distributed is necessary but NOT sufficient. The upper-half also needs to be extended to be made aware of other nodes executing DDL/DML statements and dealing with related concurrency while still allowing for linear scale. Also, making the optimizer aware of the distributed nature of table storage is the other major piece of work in the upper-half.

These changes required in the upper half is what makes the "100% pure extension" model a bit harder... but that's something we intend to explore jointly with the Postgres community.

I don't see any problem with the article but almost all the points you raised show there are things hardware vendors, operating system vendors, application developers, and essentially our world should fix on our end and not burden users with it.

The anti-Tivoization clause of GPLv3 doesn't deal with a linking issue, it deals with the fact that even if the device maker releases code for modifications under GPLv2, that doesn't let the user modify and replace the code on the device if the device is locked down so as not to accept modified code, and the user hasn't been provided with the appropriate incantations to unlock it.
QED why we are where we are.
Arranged marriages are still marriages and come with the same issues. Couple of factors why they succeed often is:

* compatibility is established by design

* usually, its a union of families, which creates a wider social circle that helps out the newlywed couple through difficulties

Personally, I believe that _any_ two people living together and sharing so much will inevitably end up loving/hating each other. You simply can't be indifferent to people who are in such close social contact with you for so long.
Agreed. I still think there is potential here(on the Internet), though.
On another mid size sub we decided to take a hard line: Text posts only, automod flags on image links, banning people who break the rules.

It changed the sub significantly. Some people liked the more serious tone, some people felt like the fun had been sucked out. At the end of the day, you can't please everyone.
Making the barrier to post low-quality content slightly higher will always help. For instance banning direct link posts and only allowing self posts.

We already lack freedom of association. In the United States, a business is not free to discriminate against certain classes of people, or on the basis of certain things.

The only question is what is the precise coefficient of friction on that slippery slope.

You can argue that wedding cakes should be baked for gay couples but that websites should not be hosted for nazis for reasons A, B, and C. But claiming that businesses have some sort of broad right to free association is not merely specious, but completely and obviously wrong.
My best experience so far was being hired to do real, paid work remotely and then invited to discuss the solution and further plans.

> pretty cool to see all the different ways ECMA-262 has been implemented

My favorite is that the language spec was written as quite regular pseudo-code... so at least as of some years ago, and after some manual massage to clean up irregularities, one could automagically transliterate the text of the spec into code. And if the target language had label gotos (because the spec was full of 'then go to step N'), and permited arbitrary identifiers, then the code could read just like the spec. Making code-review proof reading much easier.

That's one of my canaries for detecting when a non-crippling programming language finally exists - someone generates a not-necessarily performant but fully spec-compliant js implementation with some strikingly tiny effort. A few days.
In all honestly though, "SFTP-as-as-service" doesn't sound like a very sexy or sustainable business model.
