This is the problem of decentralized, too open systems (aka anarchy): it enables terrorism, child porn, violent hate groups, organized crime and other extremists and criminals. There needs to be a reputation system and stronger limits to gradually give a user more access. Also, if they're required to pay for what they use (micropayment) to keep resources on servers, they're less likely to post illegal junk. Otherwise, crazy jerks will turn a free service into a Tragedy of the Commons, and everyone loses. We need more user-supported, non-profit sensible social media, productivity and other web apps to replace the for-profit and the wild-west ones that don't scale so well without major work. That being said, free often becomes junk because there's not the focus and professionalism to make something cool.

TL;DR - free doesn't scale without meaningful accountability
Steve Jobs and Apple’s Last Previous Earnings Warning
There were called that when they were a dictatorship, too.
I won't try to sell you on a MacBook, but I tried ditching my iPhone for an official Google Android phone because I felt similarly to the way you do and it was one of the worst decisions I've ever made.

I chose an official Google phone because I wanted to be sure that I could get security updates and run the latest version of the OS. But it didn't take long before the phone's UI performance became extremely noticeable. Simple stuff like triggering the back action or switching between apps would take multiple seconds. Chrome sometimes took up to 20 seconds to load. I can't help but think that Android made some fundamentally bad decisions in their software stack given just how bad the experience can be. And 13 months into my Android phone experience, the phone started boot looping and basically turned into a brick. Called Google, who ducked out of any responsibility because their warranty only covered the first 12 months, despite the fact that they've known about this issue for more than 2 years and kept selling the phone anyways. Compare that to the way that Apple responded to batterygate and you can see the difference in customer service between them and Google is night and day.

Maybe it's just me, but I've also talked to others that have gone to Android and found only a world of hurt. With Apple making iPhone battery replacement very affordable, you'll get a far smoother experience sticking with an outdated iPhone models than you'll get with top-of-the-line Android phones. I hope for your sake that you have a more positive experience with Android than I did. But less than 18 months later and I'm back using an iPhone 8 and have no plans to ever consider Android again.

Same with a hypervisor? A hypervisor could start as fast as a container, the only issue is having two kernels and the overhead it entails.
The ageism in SV has very little to do with actual talent and productivity and much more with how the team feels someone can handle themselves at happy hour.
Can you cite any evidence that PWM results in either poorer image quality or a poorer experience?

I don't believe it exists, and I place this in the same category of people who think that wifi makes them sick.

If you've actually removed it all, why would ongoing service be needed?
I think they have one trick left to play in the short term — I wouldn't be shocked if many people would upgrade their iPhones (who otherwise wouldn't do so) if they released a USB-C version.
No, it is simply a maintenance issue. There are already plenty of those in motor vehicles, and people are well-trained to track and manage them.
I also like the fact that snap is Free software - I'm still not able to find out from the scratch 3.0 website if scratch can be easily self-hosted, modified etc?

Snap is on github:
https://github.com/jmoenig/Snap

It also is based around js, and can import scratch 2.0 sketches (not sure how well that works in practice) - I wonder if there's any collaboration with MIT scratch moving off of flash to js - or if they did everything from, well, scratch ?
> Any speed gains you may have because of uBlock are offset by the cpu speed gains on iPhone XS.

Depends on network performance, how heavy your typical sites visited are, and what type of configuration you're running on uBlock.

Anecdotally, I find my Snapdragon 835 phone with Firefox/Ublock Origin to feel somewhat faster than my A10 with Safari/1 Blocker X. (Plus Firefox/uBlock gives various QOL improvements over Safari, like customizably removing cruft from various sites, and not autoplaying video.) My biggest complaint with Firefox/uBlock Origin is that the UI isn't very nice for whitelisting scripts on mobile.
AI Imitates Donald Trump
Yeah that's a basic issue, currently ios is not self-hosting you absolutely have to have a mac if you want to write apps for ios.
I have a strong bias: the university crowd (haven't seen old programmers yet).

One guy who was about 24/25. He came in already experienced in creating extensions for clang and LLVM. He wanted to do a masters in cyber security. I told him to get a job, but we became friends instead.

When I wrote my first if-statement for an operating system course, he finished the entire program. It was unreal to see. Funnily enough I was quick enough to read his code and to see where he'd be sub-optimal in his architecture.
Not at all - I can't stand voice UI (at the moment). The problem with voice UI as I see it is that until it's perfect, it's horrible. Even if Siri is 80% great, the 20% of the time I have to repeat myself 3, 4, 5 times to get what I want, I've now spent more time than if I'd just using touch UI in the first place. Eventually that gets better, but until then it's too frustrating / slower than just typing.

Integration with iOS (history/bookmarks/tabs sync) is a good reason.
That’s the problem with translating Chinese, there’s a lot of ambiguities. An interesting story from Nixon’s opening to China was that the PLA generals were openly calling the US 霸 which the Chinese translators insisted meant respected leader. But if anyone in the US delegation had read Romance Of The Three Kingdoms in mandarin they would have realized that the PLA generals meant 霸 as in calling the US a tyrannical hegemon to be overthrown. Like if that translation had gone differently I wonder if the US would have even been comfortable opening up trade relations with China.

The truth is that you're not going to get to make this decision. If you're starting greenfield, you're going to start a single repo for your project. If that greenfield is the whole company and everything is part of that project, you get a giant monorepo. If greenfield is a new division that's not part of another project, you're going to create a new repo, and now you're in a polyrepo environment.

Which way it goes is determined by the environment, wherein the engineers do the sensible thing at the time. Then you do the engineering to solve the problems with whatever way you went.
My Sennheiser bluetooth monitors work just fine all night without clicks or stutters.
I have a slightly different take -- I think that 'next thing' is AR (glasses, contacts, etc.), and I think Apple is as poised as anyone to take advantage of it.

The big revolutions in computing devices have been room full of equipment + punch cards -> desktop w/ big display -> laptop w/ small display -> phone with really small display.

I think the logical next move after isn't ever-bigger phones/phablets/tablets, it's contact lens / glasses device with A/R display.
I like playing with Alexa, which is probably the most feature complete, but lets be real it doesn’t work “most of the time”. It’s garbage. Absolute garbage.

Even basic dictation is maybe 90% accurate at best, which makes it virtually useless.

I find it really well designed in Decred crypto currencie.

The hard thing is setting the rules to make everyone (users, miners and developers) have power, can change things. That governance.
Image quality is improved by PWM brightness, because the alternative is running at 100% duty cycle and changing brightness in software, which causes color banding because you're throwing away bit depth. Additionally, even slow (200Hz approx) PWM is well above the flicker fusion threshold for all humans, so no flicker is visible when your eyes are still.

The problem is phantom array effect artifacts when you move your eyes. These appear and disappear in response to eye movement, so they can be perceived as motion, which is distracting to some people. I personally find PWM very obvious and annoying, but I suspect I have unusually weak saccadic masking.
If they just didnt discard the OutOfBounds check, the V8 JS engine would be a lot safer...
It's my understanding that 5G will also be used in the 600mhz spectrum at least by T-Mobile so will have the longer range with improved bandwidth and latency of 5G.

17, ~25, ~30, ~40, ~45, ~65 and even ~70. I think it depends on the personality property of curiosity to delve into the software-hardware stack turtles of details all the way down and not see anything as a real barrier that can't be overcome with effort.

There's something to be said for lots of experience shipping product under a deadline, politely questioning technically-expensive features that wouldn't be good for the user and managing stakeholders' expectations.
I'll note that the mars exploration rovers Spirit and Opportunity were meant to last 90 sols (Martian days). Spirit lasted 2,210, and (assuming it doesn't reply) Opportunity lasted 5,111.

When you have everyone working on the mission trying to make sure their part isn't the one that causes the mission to end before the 90 days are up, you get a long-lived rover.
If you recall, that’s how touch screens used to be. You’d either have to use a stylus or sometimes press multiple times. Even the virtual keyboards on old devices weren’t designed. All the keys were right next to each other, there was no intelligent touch correction/rejection. Pre iPhone was pretty bad.
Yes, of course, installment (EMI) payments are available, but then that's the case for anything (doesn't make that an easy buy). In my part of the world fathers still save for a long time to buy their kids a computer so that they can advance in their studies etc.. But a computer (now mostly laptops) is a necessity, and works for many more years than a phone - especially an iPhone which is mostly still considered a luxury.
(Worked at google for 2-3 years, under google3 depot) - AFAIK, only few hundreth files are not visible to employees, and certain folks (contractors) maybe limited there too.

You can actually compile, and run in dev/staging certain things, inspect code, click on function, and see callsites, even "debug" from the browser (debugging, is pretty much, if your binary have stepped through a bookmark, then it'll tell you, and you may print out locals from the scope - like vars, etc. - hard to explain in short).

Then "checking out", to put in p4/svn - is not really like that - but you can find pretty much videos, docs explaining it. It's more like - you create a "workspace", "client" (piper has history from p4, so some terms are similar to perforce), and in this client - you "view" the entire depot, and changes you've made are "overlayed". Then you can submit these in a CL (much like perforce).

There is also git (git5) and hg mode, but I've never used them. I've used the "CitC" one (client in the cloud), and was great as I was able to edit, and later edit, even build,... even deploy all from the browser (though prefer real IDE there - like Eclipse/IntelliJ/CLion).
My understanding is that the only thing that really matters in China is the availability of WeChat.

What phone you've got matters little as a result. So Apple doesn't enjoy its usual iOS-stickiness factor.
I think it’s partially that US diplomats get constantly told by Chinese officials about how unstable China is. Everyone in the PLA is obsessed with ancient Chinese stories about ancient Hegemons and they took the lesson that the worst thing a rising power can do is “ask the size of the emperors cauldron” and risk freaking out the hegemon prematurely. I think you’re right that China’s progress is being under counted. But I think that’s exactly what the communist party desires (though only in foreign media, domestic media is a completely different story)

Care to tell what makes you slower, compared to your 40-ies? We need to prepare ;-)
You aren’t allowed to clone google’s repo to a laptop.
I strongly agree. I hate this style of blog post.

Telling people what they should or should not do is generally absurd. Every situation is unique and you can't possibly know another project's requirements or acceptable trade-offs.

A better approach, in my opinion, is "Here's what we did and why". The author clearly has experience in the area. Great! Tell me about your problems. Tell me about your attempted solutions and what did or did not work. Tell me what you wish you had done! I'd love to use knowledge of your situation to inform my own decision making.

But don't be surprised if my circumstances are different and lead me to prefer different trade-offs and choose a different solution. That doesn't make me a zealot or an idiot.
May I recommend “The Talent Code”?

It’s an excellent book discussing the concept of “talent” in the context of practice and quality attention.

The word talent implies something one is born with. Turns out that how good one is at something has much more to do with the quality of the neuropathways generated by specific practice habits.
The idea of everyone with a stock exiting simultaneously is way too suspicious and hard to mentally model, so let's say a supermajority instead, because some event makes a big holder and some followers want to move out. Perhaps the stock was replaced in an index fund.

And you made up "simultaneously", so I'm going to ignore that and say "a week or two" instead.

There are thousands of major stocks that could support this with a small price movement.

If any big crypto coin had supermajority (or even 10%) of the owners try to cash out, the money would dry up right away.
Because you lose all your precision there due to how floating point math eorjsy. expm1 is for very small x that where exp (x) is close to 1.

Why exercise alone won’t save us
I think there's three components to every employment position:

- sufficient work ability, rarely an issue.

- teamwork - at work interface, negotiating, empathy with others. be relentlessly resourceful and useful, but get yours too.

- off-the-clock skills and interpersonal/appearance likability - a bunch of awkward single dudes can't say "no" to the socially-calibrated dude who goes out and convinces a bunch of attractive-enough females to hang-out with a bunch of random engineer dudes. be that guy, and you'll have friends bugging you all the time... turn your phone off and rock out to Spotify. :D
Can someone explain how are these types of devices safe from hackers? I mean, it talks back to the space agency, right? Just curious is all. Haven't seen anything related to this question.
> there are several excellent [BI tools] with free or cheap tiers

Would live a recommendation or 2.
One way of doing it is flagging all subscription payments as "requires me to give it the thumbs up each cycle otherwise the payment is declined or trigger a charge back". This would not require any integration with any service provider as you're simply declining any payments that weren't explicitly agreed to by the user.

A big bank has the muscle to attempt this, because most service providers would be too scared to let these transactions fail and send collections after people because having too many charge backs paints a target on your back and they could get booted off the network.

This generally lines up with my philosophy that all payments should be initiated by users on a one-off basis. It really shouldn't be too much hassle to approve every monthly recurring cost you have.
Plenty of Android phones still do it.
> Treating straight source code as sensitive information is security by obscurity.

This. Every decision is a trade-off. There is no silver bullet. Context matters.

Not entirely sure about all the ISS tests but most space biology experiments seem to be zero-g.
We know a lot about how life survives at 1g and 0g but very little about in between, so hopefully it goes ok, quite a unique experiment.
There's no Li-Ion battery currently available that is immune from this problem.

Your expectation is entirely unrealistic and emotional. This has nothing to do with the size of the battery.
was so hoping for xr to be smaller. i mean prob wouldnt have switched anyway without my headphone wire antenna enabled built-in FM radio in moto phone, but was thinking about it.
I've gotten prescription pairs for $12 before in the US. See other online services listed here such as Zenni Optical. Warby Parker is one of the most expensive among the non-traditional glasses producers.
The Boston subway was built by tearing up a street from building wall to building wall, and several people died during the process. Seattle's light rail construction is far less disruptive and deadly.

Seattle is a bit of an odd case when talking about construction timelines, because the projects are drawn out mostly due to a state law that limits how much Sound Transit can bond out at any given time. Anything more aggressive than that would require passing a 60% vote threshold, which would be quite the landslide election. (It's also how the first Seattle subway attempt died.)

Environmental impact doesn't just concern spoilage of a pristine environment; among other things, it can consider impacts on drainage and runoff, noise pollution, construction impacts, efficacy at diverting car trips and CO2 emissions, etc.
I believe the point being made is that flexibility is itself a misfeature that enables misuse. While you are absolutely correct that JWTs could be part of a stricter standard less enabling of misuse, they do not themselves constitute such. And for many purposes, other more specialized and suitable standards (such as Macaroons) already exist.
You can have large repos and it not only be code. I remember seeing repos many tens of gigs because all of VS was versioned as well for "reproducibility".
expm1 avoids catastrophic cancellation (due to finite precision floating point), and so is more accurate for x close to zero than naive(x) = exp(x) - 1, e.g. expm1(1e-100) != 0, but naive(1e-100) = 0.
I had a pair of WP frames that were just fine (my first pair of glasses). When they broke, I ordered not one, but two pairs of similar acetate frames for $20 from Zenni. Quality was identical, so much so that I wonder if they came from the factory. A pair from one company cost 10 times the other, and they both came quickly in the mail... I don't anticipate that this will be sustainable.

The Takeaways section is pretty funny. It reads like an rote instruction manual for an extraterrestrial middle manager who has never socialized with human beings before. Straight out of Office Space.
From the happines of survival-mode poverty to an anxious ‘better life’
If I remember correctly, Gitlab has introduced some sort of ownership control where you can say who owns what directories for things like approving merge requests that affect those directories.
Dynamic programming in CS and dynamic programming in operations research share almost nothing besides the name.
Microsoft switched all of windows to a mono repo.
Is subsidizes the correct word? Let along "Heavily" ?

You could get the exact same Apple Battery from China for about $7 including shipping. I would bet Apple have them for less than $5. Even at a reduced cost of $29, there is still $25 margin for Apple. Even if you subtract the operational cost involves, I doubt Apple ever subsidizes.
The article is great summary of the pros and cons.

What is still missing from the default tooling is a way to make a change across repos.

At GitLab we're working on group merge requests to solve this https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/3427
I just installed a security update on my S7 this week. The phone was released in March 2016, so we are nearing the 3 year mark.

I bought it a year after release and it was less than half the price of a similar iPhone.
If someone is in the neighborhood you can do a good comparison between customer service, quality of glasses, and store vibe in a short amount of time. Go to WP store in Union square, make your way to Spectacles, then hit up Rims & Goggles on Sutter. It's a short walk to Oliver Peeps from Spectacles too. For kicks go into Sunglass hut.

WP is good for in a pinch but the quality of the glasses and treatment you get from your optometrist or a 'boutique' can make a huge difference for something you wear for work...everyday. It's akin to NPR's guilt trip during fundraising time. If you do the math it's a relatively low cost per wear. + it's something that can help you feel less strain at the end of the work day.
Wouldn’t the spread spectrum help in preventing any kind of interception?
