Security by obscurity is none at all, the customer/hacker can call up and provide information/pretext no problem - plus the information is available on public sources (such as this one) on why the issue occurs - a smart enough attacker can just use other proxies until it finds one you didnt ban, whereas legit users are probably SOL.
The reason people broke for Trump was because he actually represented their interests, unlike the Democrats or the GOP. The problems of crime, illegal immigrants competing for jobs, and trade with poor countries, all drive down the quality of life of the working class American.
Generally it's the camera which incentives my friends with better phones, more expensive phone = much better camera.

Apart from that, it's also the same argument about why would anyone buy an expensive watch or a branded handbag or expensive clothes? It's to show off.

As you have rightly pointed out the intended use case. I want to add more constraints to it. It's intended to be used in production deployments that are security critical, constant applying security patches is not an optimal solution, and slowdown is bearable.

It will introduce denial of service attack. QMS executables can operate in two modes: warning mode and crash mode. Both will reduce the level of service, but neither will allow memory accession violations to happen.

Edit: added more constraints to the suitable production deployments.

These stones have local patrons which clean and care for the stone regularly. If this isn't done, the stones do degrade quickly.

I understand the objection to people stepping on it, but at the same time, where else would you place something to have the same effect? These memorials are so effective exactly because it's a highly unconventional location for them. I've walked past hundreds of Holocaust memorials in my life and none have had the same effect on me as seeing one of these stones with a candle next to it in front of my house on the day of the "Night of Broken Glass"
I actually think the problem isn't a glut of designers or UXers, it's an obsession with A/B testing and multi-armed bandit scenarios. I'm sure that at any one time there are dozens of A/B tests running on the site, and the inconsistency we all see is a direct result. Netflix is a similar offender in this area, I never have any idea where "continue watching" is going to be when I open up the app.
I would still be using my Nexus 5, if it hadn't developed an issue with the power button (which caused it to constantly boot cycle - purely due to a physical defect with the button). I'm using a Samsung S7 now, which is definitely a superior device to the Nexus 5, but the Nexus 5 was absolutely fine.
Tangential but reading this thread I feel many words have apparently changed meaning. Parent mentions that receiving the notifications are 'agonizing'. Another post in this thread calls it 'horrible'

According to the Cambridge dictionary agonizing means: 'causing extreme physical or mental pain' or 'causing extreme worry'. Horrible means 'very bad unpleasant or disgusting'.

These are very strong words, when I hear agonizing I think of a crushed leg, or seeing your daughter tortured, I would use horrible for similar circumstances, not a kid getting a bad grade in a notification..

And I personally think learning your kids to grow a thick skin to cope with the adult world is a good thing, so in conclusion I don't really see a problem here and people are way overreacting.
I suppose I understand your (and others', here) point of view. It's a different experience for me, grading-wise, not because receiving my grades is stress-free, but more because I'm never expecting it - so I don't think about it too much, just live my life, and when that e-mail comes, I check things, and it's done with. It's a superior experience than waiting for a specific day, or time of day. But, of course, that's my experience.

Perhaps a solution would be for these school portal systems to take this into consideration, allowing students to pick how they prefer their grades to be 'released'/delivered - 'unexpectedly', or on a timed schedule.

Corporal != Abuse. I was a teacher. Kids were not turning in homework. I gave out about 15 minutes worth of it because independant practice is important. Most kids would just not do it. So I instituted a 5 push up policy. You did 5 push ups for every day in a row you did not turn it homework. So your third day would have been 15 push ups. It worked great. Only three or so kids per class would skip homework, and few kept up the trend. This lasted a very short time. When administration heard, they shut that shit down fast as it was considered corporal punishment. Students stopped turning in homework for the most part after that.
I used a 'typical' driver earning $75,000/year in 1975. $75,000 today, after expenses, is considered well-payed. New drivers earn $20,000 to $30,000/year.

According to the BLS CPI inflation calculator[1], $75,000 in 1975 would be equivalent to $362,000 today.

Business Insider has, shall we say, a very Capital-oriented view of the trucking industry, constantly shilling for low driver pay. Drivers who read it are always amazed that they never seem to mention that there would be way more drivers than needed if they could earn what they used to.

Yeah - I did not mean that line in the sense of "it cannot work any other way", but more that I hadn't imagined people could feel differently than me about that topic, so I didn't conceive of it evolving any other way.

This topic opened my eyes a bit - and that feature is definitely something I'd push for, if ever given the opportunity to work in that kind of system.

> The US is the only country that has not signed the UN convention on childrens rights.

I looked it up on Wikipedia; seems like a lot of nations don't consider it to forbid child corporal punishment. ("The Committee's interpretation of this section to encompass a prohibition on corporal punishment has been rejected by several state parties to the Convention, including Australia,[14] Canada and the United Kingdom.")

> Even developing countries ban corporeal punishment.

Most countries seem to forbid corporal punishment in schools, with varying levels of enforcement, but many do not forbid parental corporal punishment; China is one example, http://www.globaltimes.cn/content/1083321.shtml.
You failed to notice that they committed less than a month ago to their master branch and approved several PRs.

Their last dotX release was also 9 months after.

You should also always have a look at roadmap (https://github.com/jquery/jquery/wiki/Roadmap) if you are trying to get a read on any project's longevity.

It is in a way a good thing that a mature library like jQuery isn't released too frequently because all the websites that use it works just a little bit snappier because jQuery is usually already available in cache in the browser from some other source and if not, then the nearest CDN probably has it.

The latest idea to replace the “old rumour”, according the rabbi, is that some of the initial collecting of Torah scrolls came from Jews hoping to preserve the scrolls from their synagogues that were vandalised or destroyed by the nazis.

But after a collection of Jewish artefacts and treasures was started (which includes things like silver scroll crowns and plates and Yad pointers), the nazis themselves became interested in gathering the relics hoping to extract precious metals. So much of the silver is gone today, but amazingly the collection of scrolls themselves remained relatively intact.

My synagogue has one of the scrolls, very badly damaged, which the rabbi showed us this morning. There is something very powerful about seeing and feeling a religious artifact hundreds of years old, originally from a Czech Jewish community now destroyed and practically forgotten. Yet this Torah lives on a living and breathing Jewish community today, where some of the Bar and Bat Mitzvah students actually read from it.

I've purchased flagship Android phones from Samsung/Google for a while. The biggest differentiator for me is the quality of the camera. I've owned budget phones before, and even though I'm not much of a photographer, I find the (relatively) poorer photo quality a big turn-away.

Other smaller reasons include convenience features like wireless charging, a fingerprint reader, water resistance, a nicer screen, and faster Android updates that are available for longer.

I won't prove this here: for any digit, there exists an arbitrarily long sequence of the same digit repeating somewhere within infinite decimal expansion of Pi. Further, this happens infinitely throughout the expansion. Thus, when dealing with Pi exactly, this question does not have an answer.

However, since we're dealing with such a limited representation of only a few trillion digits, this may have an answer...

Edit: as @nightcracker points out, this is conjecture. It is not currently know as to whether or not Pi has that property. (I could have sworn I read a proof years back). Thanks for the correction.
With that said, it's not know as to whether or not this question has an answer.
It seems like you failed to recognize that the example uses market for _used_ cars as an example. You are thinking market for new cars.

Lemon market conditions are quite common. Averse selection is now seen as a fundamental cause of market failure.
For example corporate securities markets, insurance markets, virtually all resale markets and housing markets specially suffer from the adverse selection to some degree.
Seeing a lot of comments on the thread to the tune of "just use IRC; I don't use the features that Slack et al offer on top of IRC, so neither should anybody else".

You can have your opinions about Slack, about its apps being rubbish, about it being proprietary, whatever. But imagining that your personal use case, and those of your peers who probably are of a similar technical inclination, should represent the be-all and end-all of real-time online communication for groups is really unhelpful.

Yes, Slack and its ilk aren't perfect, but neither is IRC. What would be really great is if the IRC protocol could evolve to support some of these new features, perhaps with some sort of minimum specification for graphical clients that want to implement these new features — and graceful fallbacks for those that don't and text-based client users.

My first thought is that an app is probably overkill. There are already several websites with this info. If you're going to have your own website, two things would help. First, add an autocomplete function so I can start typing "rasp" and get raspberries. Second, surface all the information about a food once it's found -- not just "ok -- see below."
I kinda want one of these directory websites you could find in the early 2000s that were just collections of websites the author liked. I want a page like that just filled with links to pushed like this. projectrho.com comes to mind as another page I would want to see liked there.

Quantum Machine Learning
My company takes care of their employees much better than pretty much any other tech company I've ever heard of, and while it _is_ a tech company, I can only conclude that it's for the following reasons:

- It was founded and is still headquartered in the suburbs of Dallas and has nothing to do with SF/SV. We technically have a sales office in SF, but that's just a place for our account managers on the West Coast to meet with clients (we also have similar sales offices in NYC, London, and Amsterdam... though I think the London office has been expanded into a real office with a handful of non-sales people regularly present).

- We're an enterprise B2B telecom, not some web/social/mobile-driven B2C company. B2B has a number of different cultural mores from B2C, and that's reflected in our internal values. And telecom in general is a whole 'nother ballgame entirely. It's a much more conservative industry than the rest of tech. When I tell random people what kind of company I work at, I usually say "we're kind of an enterprise ISP", which is about as far from SV-typical tech companies as you can imagine (though I stress the kind of, because we're more than just an ISP).

Working here doesn't feel like working at a tech company at all. It feels like working for a traditional enterprise, and I like it that way.

And that's not just me talking: we regularly win awards on Glassdoor because lots of other people think that way. We also have a TV screen in the office that shows our latest Glassdoor reviews. One day, I noticed a particular line scroll by, and it was interesting enough that I hopped on Glassdoor to ctrl-F for it so I could look at it in its entirety. Here's the Pros section from this person's review:

> Good work/life balance. Management has Texas values rather than imposing a Silicon Valley-style groupthink. Growing and profitable.

It looks like I'm not the only one who's realized that the reason this company is so good to their employees is because they're not from Silicon Valley.
Regular expressions isn’t the issue, it’s the libraries. Regular expressions are, mathematically, the quickest and safest way to parse text, and they are linear in complexity. But most libraries aren’t...

This is the correct answer. When you search for listings in Airbnb what comes back is heavily personalized.

Of course, that only accounts for one of the various pages you'll see in the checkout flow, and I agree that not everything is as snappy as it could be. But keeping things snappy turns out to be a very hard problem when you're growing as quickly as Airbnb has.

Hello Michael,
I've read your 2 articles about anki. I am an avid user of anki myself and I use it for math as well.

In your 2 articles you tell about using it to understand and retain memory of an Alphago paper and to do the same for the theorem about orthogonal diagonalizability of normal matrices.

I wonder, how do you organize anki cards and in which order do you study them? Personally I put all cards in one deck and anki shows them in kinda random order, so I might get a question about convex optimization, then a question on numerical linear algebra, then a question on some dance moves. I take it you do it in a different way? Because you create many small cards for a topic I think you would spend too much time context switching if you did random order like me. For this reason I make larger cards, e.g. "Prove that for any linear operator on a finite dimensional complex vector space there is a basis such that the operator has upper triangular matrix in it"; and when preparing for an exam in institute I might even create a card "Definition, existence, uniqueness, and computational complexity of SVD". Also I think creating small cards might be bad for chunking, i.e. you won't get large chunks of all the related knowledge about a theorem and instead you will have small chunks - a chunk per card.

Another question is how do you add all this information to anki? Anki obviously sucks as an exploratory medium. I often find that even clearing up my paper notes, taking photos of them, cutting them, and putting them into anki takes a lot of time; typing it up in LaTeX is even longer. Any tips or insights here?
Burnout is the mental equivalent of an athletic injury: you might love what you do, but you've been going at it too hard and need time to recuperate. A burnt out person was previously happy doing what they were doing but just now can't go on.

Depression is a mental health condition that can cause lethargy and can be brought on by stress, but it is chiefly characterized by extended and repeated periods of sadness and self loathing and can be brought on by many causes, including traumatic events, changes in hormone balance, or environmental factors. Simple rest and relaxation will not, at least on its own, make depression go away. While a depressed person is having a depressive episode, they may find it very difficult to work, but in between episodes they will work normally.

Laziness means you don't like to work, or at least can't motivate yourself to do the tasks you need to do. It is a character trait that neither starts nor goes away suddenly. Instead it something that must be routinely overcome. A lazy person may have a lower baseline level of motivation than a non-lazy person, but their motivation level should remain about as consistent as a normal person's; they won't have sudden unexplainable drops in productivity.

Being in the wrong job means something specific to the job itself is problematic but the person is otherwise an enthusiastic worker. Instead of sudden dips in enthusiasm, or consistent low performance, they will likely show a slow but steady decline as the negative aspects of their job takes a toll. Often the person in the wrong job actually likes the work itself, but other aspects of the working environment such as coworkers or organization make them unhappy.

Finally, these cases are not mutually exclusive. A lazy person can find themselves in the wrong job, get burntout trying to do it anyways, triggering the onset of depression. Luckily, the remedies for each challenge are very unlikely to have a negative effect on someone who is actually facing one of the other challenges.
