Sure, traffic engineering requires a stamp. Traffic light timings? That's a little rich considering the guy who created the formula in question was a physicist who never held a PE.
GCC is a good example.

Since we are talking about Smalltalk here.

We had Energize C++, C++ Builder as C++ RAD tooling, which failed to win any representative market share.

And if it wasn't for Apple sponsoring the initial work in clang, the open source C and C++ tooling would be much worse than what was achieved the last decade.
Very true, that was a bad description of raytracing.

The Long(er) Read

We all know companies that have transformed industries (e.g., Google, Netflix, Spotify) by analysing information about you and giving you personalised suggestions that seem to know you better then even yourself – but where is the equivalent for jobs? Netflix’s recommendations are not based on “back of the box” blurbs - instead, they extract traits from movies and match them to your taste, based on your interactions. So why are we still evaluating people based on their “blurbs,” i.e. their CVs?

We use a combination of unique behavioural data, machine learning, and of course efficient product development, to go beyond the CV and find patterns that humans would otherwise not detect (at least not at scale).

Our longer-term goal is to be not only a preferred destination for transactional hiring, but a compelling, intuitive guide to planning and executing your career goals.

We have just closed a successful fundraising round and are expanding our team! This is a super exciting time to join, as it’s still early enough that you'll help us shape the foundations of the platform and tackle some very interesting problems, yet we’ve already got enough usage, traction and data that you'll have a real, immediate effect on people's lives.

We are very serious about finding the right mix of talent, passion and ownership that meets our values, and is necessary for an ambitious early-stage startup. As we grow, the expectation is that you will too. All doors are open, from diving deeper into a technical speciality, to moving sideways into another area, to mentorship and leadership roles - in the end, it's down to you, your goals and your performance.

If you want to be a part of a big, ambitious story, let's chat!
I was amazed to find out people have aphantasia. I'm def. a visual thinker. I went to art school, and had a hell of a time, until I could competently draw out what I imagined in my head (my hand/eye coordination had to catch up!). But even before that, I could visualize a lot of detail on just what I wanted something to look like. I could see a detailed part, or manipulate the visual in my head.

I remember waking up and playing Tetris in my head before I got out of bed. I could keep track of the piece falling, the next piece and the board as it stood.

Even when I started programming, I would just remember like, the pattern the code made, and where it was within the file structure. I never used an IDE - I kinda felt like I could fit the entire thing in my head and just compile it dynamically to imagine what it would do. Some languages are easier to do that with then others. Even before that, learning HTML coincided with dreams of simply writing HTML and seeing the results.

I had a nightlight until I was at least 12 (off and on), as I would imagine the craziest things happening while I slept. I also suffered from sleep paralysis - I can still picture some of the demons that were on top of me from 25 years ago.

To this day, I live in a daytime world of constantly daydreaming, making up scenarios, and playing them out. I probably shoulda went into film.

Anyways, y'all aren't like that? Weird.

I don't think history has taught us that technological progress is orders of magnitude slower than people expect. Every technology the OP mentioned exists in nascent form today and didn't 10 years ago. It's totally believable that all of them will be widely deployed in 20-40 years.

The world 20-40 years ago was far more primitive than it is today.

> Then we really didn’t give them enough time to process the enormity of what had happened and surrender.

The whole point of using both bombs was to demonstrate not only that it had been achieved but also that it was easy to repeat indefinitely, since the consensus among German and Japanese scientists seemed to be that atomic bombs were impractical to implement in a reasonable timeframe. Had only one been used, or so the thinking went, the suspicion would have been there that it was a one-off thing.

Moreover, by most accounts, use of the atomic bomb didn't really change the behind the scenes politics of the Japanese leadership, though it may have accelerated things. The faction who wanted to sue for peace continued to do so and the military continued to advocate continuation of the war even after both bombs were used.

Why would it be worse than a bike?
All multiples of 9 have digits that add up to 9. This is something kids learn. Why does it work? 9 is 10 - 1, so every time you add another nine the tens digit goes up by one and the ones digit down by one, maintaining the sum of digits. Similar thing happens at three digits, four digits, etc, because 9 < 10, no digit other than the ones digit ever goes up by more than 1, and a 9 becomes a 0 when you carry a one.

That this pattern didn’t swamp the results makes me wonder what kind of bug the author has in the scanning code.

[edit: seems I forgot about situations like 9 x 11 x N, where the digits can add up to 18, 27, etc due to all the 8 and 9 digits, so the algorithm will only find multiples of 9 with lots of small digits in it.]
In principle it's about how to build a custom HF SA. I'm sure you'll find better components for less money, or even use SDR, but good HF/microwave spectrum analysis until today relies on analog circuitry. It's amazing that sometimes you can't even find/buy a correct reactance, so you have to design something else yourself to make your VCOs work as intended.

The principles never change, but the implementation does. How to make good reliable HF filters with least effort? There it is.

Gates and Jobs were both familiar with the DynaBook concept from Parc, I don't see how this would be a case where Jobs is taking Gates' ideas.
Its still a negotiation process; the imf is probably just lazy, procedurally and intellectually... In the end, if they get their money back they don't care that much. For many countries politically wheedling out of their obligations is a real strategy, and the easiest way to do this is to discredit international lending, which, in turn is easiest to do by inflicting the pain of austerity on the poorest instead of the politically connected.
Well, look at lispworks for example, that compiler costs $1500 for a hobbyist edition, i can't afford to pay for that. Maybe if you price your product reasonably for end users you can still sell software(including compilers/devtools), a lot of people pay for sublime text.
An exception I could see to this is if somehow technology could be employed to affect those cultural/social norms? Maybe the problem is where we're aiming the technology, and not technology itself.

Though, I could be wrong about that. I agree that there are some problems not solved through more technology and the "there should be an app for that" mentality can be a problem.

If we had that system, it might be good.
"The simple truth of natural nutrition" is scarcity and starvation. Obesity is a result of the ready availability of the kinds of foods (carbs and fat) that are "naturally" hard to get, so our body hoards them when it has access. We innovated ourselves into effectively unlimited food. All diets are unhealthy if access isn't limited.

I like not going hungry on a regular basis. Most people do.

Yuck, that is a good point. At the same time, is the need to house residential cleaning staff really what drives the creation/maintenance of integrated neighbourhoods?

For my part, I live in a pretty blended downtown neighbourhood (Kitchener, Ontario), and balancing the need for affordable housing with the constant pressure to "clean up" certain areas and turn brownfields into glitzy new condo towers seems to be something that's largely managed at the city council level.
Thanks for a good article and actually very timely for me as I want to brush up on LA in 2019. From the above comment it sounds like you are the author? I’ve noted a few potential typos: 1) Length of v, should read length of a? 2) when discussing similarity between vectors you discuss the case of the dot product being 0 or 1, but the dot product could be >1, no?

I’m guessing trulia is looking as asking price because that’s definitely off based on actual experience shopping around. Because of property tax being much lower, older homes can ask a lot more. Sure new developments here are asking 600k+ for a tiny condo but they’ve all been reducing prices. In my part of town my house was more than 50k lower than an almost identical copy of my house down the street that’s been here for 10 years.

Besides, I never said all new homes were cheaper so I’m not sure why you’re even trying to argue it. Shop around and you’ll find a deal.
I am frustrated by the state of the world, and I have a urge to fix it. I can't tell if it's a legitimate concern, or if I'm being delusional. The delusion and frustration could be explained by undiagnosed depression and ADHD.

I'm traveling to force myself out of the routine I was stuck in for the past few years. I hoped it would allow and motivate me to act upon this urge to change the world. Something else must be missing, as I'm not making the progress I expected.

I'm currently trying to figure out what's preventing me from making progress. I'm doing a lot of introspection, meditation, eliminating distractions and time sinks, organizing my values, goals and commitments, using a task manager and calendar, building new healthy habits.

I'm trying to fix myself before I can fix the world.

My personal finances are currently taking a hit, but I hope it will turn out to be a good investment.
> their car door open,

Not at all similar. One is leaving open the door to your own car. The other is someone who is being entrusted with keeping something safe for third parties "leaving the door open", i.e. being in breach of that trust, and essentially saying that they don't give a frack about their infraction.

So how can Amazon be sanctioned for this infraction?

While I also don't see "breaking in" as necessarily a great option, it may be less bad than letting Amazon just get away with it. Unless there is a good way to fine or otherwise sanction Amazon, I am not sure there is an actual good option.
