There are degrees here. Jitter is real, so are ground loops, and the difference between compressed and uncompressed audio. I can tell an mp3 from a cd. However I don't think there's anything to gain from "hi res audio." 44/16 is all we need. I think these people would be fine with some noise filtering on their house house wiring. I'm not about to drop 60k on equipment, but 1k would do wonders.
I see, the problem was that it's hard to find documentation about what's needed for an Ethereum full node. As I'm just running Bitcoin full node, I don't have any personal experience with it.
>Ethereum is becoming increasingly centralized.

How do people see the forks, the ‘closed’ meetings, the pivots, the obvious influence that a couple devs have over the entire system - and still walk away with any notion there is decentralization?
Portuguese people in this thread mention an alternative narrative to the events. I'm curious: is there any English-language site that you'd recommend to follow about Portugal?
No, all these can easily be prevented. In fact these has been prevented by brick and mortar shops fairly reliably for decades. Online sellers can impose background checks, identity verification, automatic law enforcement reporting, security deposits, delayed payments etc. One shouldn't be just able to post a product listing with intentional falsehood and omissions, sold openly to public and get away with it. That should be and is a bonafide crime. A system that allows that is helping to support and proliferate that crime.
For it is intro??!

Edit: Never mind, its good now. ;)
You got it. There are degrees here. You can be an "audiophile" and not break the bank.

What happens in other industrialized countries around this age, after a person gets laid off?

Is it easy to get another job at the same pay (eg how long does it take on average, and what's the new pay) ?

Are there differences between genders at this age bracket in terms of ability to find a job with similar pay without relocating ?

What types of professional skills are making getting a job easier?

Article just makes it sound that future for most of US workers around that age, is of a decline in everything (pay, satisfaction, ability to stay close with family, job security). Is this same in other developed nations?

I don't disagree with the point you're trying to make, but I'm not sure if USB is the best example to make that point.

Case in point: when I used a USB DAC with my NUC there's an intermittent electrical noise that's actually quite audible and distracting (even when nothing is playing). I ended up switching to another cheap DAC that accepts optical input, and the noise completely disappeared. I'm not entirely sure what caused the electrical noise to begin with, but that it existed means there's some potential for USB to mess with the audio signal.

>In the real world there are lots of drop-dead deadlines with no possibility of extension, usually imposed by external constraints.

What I find interesting is that people like to talk about how much harder the real world is than school... but that just isn't my experience.

At work? as far as I can tell, 70% means I get a pretty good raise. A really good raise if one of the things I got done was really impressive.

(that is one of the weird things about school for me; At work? if you really hit one out of the park, that matters. In school? you have to be within 10% of maximum all the time if you want to do well academically... and going above that maximum doesn't really help you.)

At work? If you aren't good at something, but are really good at other things? they give the things you are terrible at to other people. In school? they make you spend all your time on that thing you are terrible at.

(I mean, I totally understand that people have different experiences of school and of work, and I also understand that I have an unusually good experience of work... but all this "real world" stuff makes me laugh, just 'cause it is soo much easier for me to keep a job where I work with people that got good grades at good schools than it is for me to... get into good schools at all.)

Sometimes there’s an unrealistic expectation that engineers know everything, but senior engineers I’ve worked with and hired knew most of that list... at least somewhat.

Yes, comfort with bash and a knowledge of how networking actually works is something I expect someone working on computer software for 10+ years to have gotten familiar with at some point.

I also expect people who build libraries inspired by prior work (FRP) to actually learn a bit about the prior work. I’m surprised he has not dabbled with functional programming.

Because you want your reasoning and abstraction to be as portable as possible, don't you ?
I think scheme was better educationally but harder pedagogy. It requires a french metric tonne of time and contact time and patience to get some ideas through. I speak as one who did FORTRAN 74 first and tried to learn LISP self taught. Talking to others who did LISP first, what they did is recapitulate the instantiation of fundamental data structures and algorithm concepts while we just made 10x over engineered battering Rams out of rusty iron bars.

Python3 (which I live in btw) doesn't exactly exude it's functional elements beyond the simple lamda you have to import from functools so recursive solutions don't lend themselves to it syntactically speaking, inherently in the language.

OTOH those battering rams come in handy for beating simple problems into submission.
Wow. That's next-level not understanding Nyquist bandwidth "records are better" extremism. I also get why Nakamichi or early Mark Levinson audio gear was outrageously expensive: they were like modern Apple but in the 1980's... ridiculous engineering and design. Hipsters should love 'em too. :)
basically instead of building your own pipelines and valves and pumps and reservoirs, etc. from scratch, today those thing are already available and proven to be working.

Spending does not stop. It may slow. Most arguments against deflation are largely strawmen, and the historical examples of it are usually a result of too much government intervention, or it following a period of high inflation.

Here's an example of deflation: Moore's Law. If computing power is going to double in 18 months, then a computer I buy now will be worth much less in 18 months. If that's the case, best not buy that computer and wait 18 months right?

Another example is a car. It loses 20% of its value on purchase and continues to lose value year on year and is eventually worth nothing.

But nobody would buy a car if that were the case!

Economic theorists are mostly employees or funded by the banks, the central banks and the governments. There's a "consensus" among them that inflation = good because it benefits the industries they work for.

Anyway, it does not matter, because Bitcoin cannot be inflated, and if people now have the choice to hold a deflationary currency or an inflationary one, let them pick! We'll see if those economists were right after all when people actually have a choice.
They obviously shouldn't. Games should feel worth playing. If your video games confront you with little other than heavy-handed suffering porn, any random real life activity will surely beat them. "death" is abstract in video games just as it is in chess. The purpose of this is to encourage exploration of danger without its very real drawbacks.
My understanding that a full sync in Bitcoin means something different than a full sync on Ethereum. Bitcoin's database is modeled on UTXO (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unspent_transaction_output) therefore all clients need to validate all transactions from genesis to calculate final balances. Meanwhile, Ethereum is account based and state is global, and to determine the balances you only need to check the merkle proof, no need to store or re-validate each and every transaction, just the final result. Source: https://github.com/ethereum/wiki/wiki/Design-Rationale#accou... quote "The benefits of accounts are:Large space savings"

In Ethereum, the closet to a Bitcoin full node would be an 'full archive' node, those are keeping all the transactions, down to the stack traces and events, without pruning. These are usually run by block explorers, but you certainly don't need to store that much detail if you just want to interact with a dapps.
First, you’re mixing up counterfeit goods with copyright violations. They’re not identical. Different bodies of law, but it’s easy to confuse the two.

At any rate, if you’re an IP rights holder, knowing how to deal with violations is table stakes for your legal representative. Googling “amazon copyright notice” gives you the correct page link near the top of the first results page.
Can someone from MIT confirm that only Python is taught in the MIT intro to cs class? We also teach SICP as the intro to cs class at Berkeley (cs61a.org), and we start with Python, but then change to scheme by the latter half of the semester.

Depending where you live you probably already do and think that ‘no taste’ is the taste of tomato. In the Netherlands (where I am from) and the south of Spain (where I spend a lot of time) the difference is huge in taste buying an average tomato; the ones in NL taste like nothing compared but seems people are used to it.
Solar and wind are environmentally dependent sources that aren't possible in all locations or times and are unlikely to work on their own. Even when they are generally available, they don't have the same utility for industry as a constant source like nuclear because of the uncertainty. Since coal and gas will certainly run out, nuclear still may have a future in small scale modular nuclear reactors produced offsite, at scale.
Walking around with binaural mics in your ears is an enlightening cyborgian experience. Especially when you whack the input and monitoring volumes right up. (But don't do it near busy roads. Or roadworks. Obvs.)
>"Computer vision based pipelines are theoretically capable of providing the same depth information as LIDAR, using stereo, camera arrays or even monocular SLAM."

Are there any companies that are taking the purely computer vision approach then?

Can you say how far off is that compute power from what is actually required for a "full self-driving" car?
In driving school I learned that I should put the car in first gear, not touch the gas and keep my foot ready to hit the brake when I enter such a street. That is, I'm supposed to go as slow as reasonably possible and be prepared to stop on a dime if a child materializes in front of the car.

There is no natural limit on bottles that are labeled with a specific year and a specific vineyard. The only way to know the label is genuine is the stringent chain-of-custody requirements that have become normal in the world of expensive artwork under pressure from forgeries.

Living in the Netherlands, the city center (practically no cars allowed) in 2 cities I've lived in over the past years, both have lots of shops going out of business.
But I would identify this trend as people doing more online shopping, most of the major shopping centers are still in this city center, and it has parking garages near, but people are just doing less shopping in brick and mortar stores.
The OP mentioned a prioritization system for a reason...

And this is why I'm saving up most of my salary, so that I can be financially independent well before anything like this happens to me. Fortunately I make a nice tech salary, so I can live a comfortable life in a world class city without having to sacrifice vacations while doing so. Most people don't have this option, unfortunately.

Also, this particular paragraph is something:

"Linda Norris, 62, of Nashua, New Hampshire, earned a similar amount doing engineering work for defense contractors before being laid off in late 2015. She spent much of 2016 campaigning for then-candidate Donald Trump and is convinced her fortunes will change now that he’s president. In the meantime, she hasn’t been able to find a permanent full-time job and said she has $25 to her name."
Python was my first, but the computer science course at my university uses Scheme for one of its primary required courses. Really kicked my ass with man-handling recursion and lambdas to no end. Implementing trees (usually binary) gave me a hell of a time. I got so sick of opening DrRacket by the end of the semester.

That being said, I did respect the course and the language. I didn’t understand the science part of computer science before starting the minor and that course opened my eyes pretty wide (as did the Data Structures course). It really forces you to think and understand what you were doing, much less poking and prodding (different from trial and error) than what you could do with Python and its libraries. Plus there’s significantly less information out there on it in comparison. I wouldn’t bring parents into it, they have almost no influence on universities unless they are privately funding/donating.

But my god those parentheses...
Still play this game on Voobly every now and then. Land Nomad map, 4v4. Rating: 16xx

A few stories:

- Still remember the day we went to the store and picked up AoE gold in like ‘98. First game I played was as Byzantines. Still remember the first enemy trebuchet launch with its immense range: “wtf is that and where is it coming from??”

- my brother and I were both into it. It was so addictive but we only had one computer and had to buy the game 3 times b/c we (I?) broke the CDs when we’d fight over it lol

- lots of hiding from my mum playing it at night in living room. Had to be quick to shut the monitor off and hide during dangerous moments.

- Most memorable recorded game was the 3v3 Yucatán between Arch_Koven, L_Clan_Rami, Arch_Vile vs. L_Clan_Bender, L_Clan_Ugnis and Korean (?). Mongol, Celt, Persian vs mongol Spain and ?? An epic that Gilgamesh would be proud of.

- favorite games vs computer were tiny map, 8 player on hard. Scenarios were enthralling too

- worst part, like the PC Gamer review said, was the opening cinematic
Part of our current Humble Bundle, too.
I think both are valuable: HTDP is the better intro but SICP scales further. For me an ideal CS101 course would be 3/4ths HTDP with a "best of" SICP tacked on at the end.
There is more to writing than just the content. The history and the background of the author plays a significant role. Let me give some reasons WRT this article:

1. In this article, the author says that he does not know streams. Now, when he learns it well, he can write about "How he learned about streams", and a beginner would empathize more with this article rather than some expert ranting about it in their blog.
2. It is inspiring for the readers. It sends a message: "If you master one skill and master it well, you can still add a lot of value to the world. Knowing everything in the field is not really important".
3. Many people write not just for others, but also for themselves. Making your insecurities public is a good way to acknowledge and face them.
Youre assuming that credit cannot be built on top of bitcoin. With bitcoin backed credit no bank/authority figure would be able to over-extend themselves to the same degree as we have today

Kenysian and austrian concepts are not mutually exclusive
Using complexity as an argument against Go is not really accurate in my point of view.
Yes, exactly.

I think there's basically only three ways to teach EECS: stack top-down, bottom-up or as-needed/random.

If students learned bottom-up, starting at silicon, they'd have a firm grasp, and be more mindful, of practical system capabilities. Python and such would either be a starting crutch or a last learned.

Just like Scheme, a learning language, we had a learning OS: MINIX 2. Such constrained environments are easier to teach but less relevant in the real world, but the valuable part is the mastery of concepts is portable across technological fashions... it instills a confidence that playing with the Linux or FreeBSD kernel doesn't because it's so overwhelming to all novices, rather unlike a minimal working example.

Furthermore, because of the bifurcations in tech, fewer people have even seen a server much less racked a datacenter floor up, or understand assembly or C. This is concerning if academia is mostly producing CS students narrowly focused on web FE/BE.

Why is there no discussion in this article that this behaviour by companies is rational? As an aging dude I know my productivity and adapatibility is declining and I am not worth paying as much to employ as 10 years ago.

Rather than trying to hold back the tide by government fiat, why not prepare people for an income path that peaks in your 40s and slowly declines with your mind and body.

Thanks for the insight. I've experienced British, Australian and New Zealand contract markets and contracting is far and away the only way to get even close to Bay Area salary levels so I'll be watching this trend closely. I really appreciate you commenting; thank you.
Again, they aren't cheaper when you compare to output.

Just to put things in perspective. Solar can do roughly 50W per m2 at best and I am being generous.

Nuclear does 1000W per m2.

Solar is not even close to being able to deliver stable energy so you would have to factor either coal, nuclear or oil into the mix too to provide stable delivery.

Renewable can't deliver the needed energy not even close. Less than 1% right now and not even close with anything like fuel cell technologies or distributed grid systems which would be very very very expensive.

Nuclear whether you like it or not is cleaner, more stable, cheaper and more scaleable.

You will realize this soon enough.
10 years ago; I'd really like to hear a post-mortem of this decision.

For context, MIT's previous EECS curriculum began with 4 required courses for all EE and CS majors. This meant that EEs had to suffer through Scheme, and CS'ers had to suffer through circuits. I'm sure everyone has their own opinion on whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Regardless, the EECS department switched to a new 7(?) "core" class format in which students choose 4(?), giving students the freedom to take more relevant courses to their interests/major. In this switch, 6.001 (scheme) was out and replaced with a more hands-on robotics-based Python lab class.

I can't really say which approach is better, but I do think there's an important place for the more pure "thinking" computer science classes too, even if it's not the first class taught to freshmen.
> It really forces you to think and understand what you were doing, much less poking and prodding

This is exactly what I look back on so fondly. I already had a lifetime of fiddling with libraries and stack overflow ahead of me, exploring pure computation was a completely eye-opening experience.
As I am becoming an older software developer I am finding the demands for my employment are ever increasing and competitive. The demands for my development in the open source space outside of work are ever increasing.

Its nice to be wanted and not worry about finding employment, but these demands keep me from doing anything else even with my personal time. I wonder what it would be like to be extremely wealthy or poor and dictate my own path.
True in other domains too. My brother's a doctor and prefers working in a lower-income neighborhood, where he never gets challenged by patients doing internet research. Of course the lack of knowledge of the "rules" that allow you to challenge authority is part of what keeps people economically disadvantaged.
The biggest problem with onboard audio generally isn’t the DAC but the amp, especially with higher end headphones.
#5 is incompatible with #3 and #8. And probably #2. You’re basically saying you want a stronger support network for teachers and students while also reducing staff. That doesn’t make any sense.
An interesting point - I hadn't at all considered the trend of slowly growing an engineering team. I'd bet you're on the money with this.
Dialyzer really gives you what you put into it. It never false-positives (by design), even while working with limited information, so if you're not writing typespecs, there's only so much it can do.

If, though, you make a habit of writing typespecs for everything, and defining domain-specific types rather than relying just on the primitives, it can get you surprisingly far.

It'll never be as powerful as Haskell or Idris, but it's absolutely a tool all Elixir (and Erlang) developers should be using.

Also, if anyone ever wants an easy way to contribute to open-source Elixir, just start running Dialyzer on popular projects. Every warning that pops up will be a bug, and often they'll be easy to fix.
