> It turns out some domestic airlines will permit you to fly with a pet on-board in a soft-side case under the seat where one might normally put a bag. This may or may not work for you, depending on how patient and large your dog is and how big your budget is.

The person to whom you replied is trying to import an animal into a foreign country. Doing that, even for pet-in-cabin and service animals, requires a certificate from the USDA. The same process as domestic flights won't work in this circumstance, unfortunately.
I find I retain information a lot better if it's printed, and a lot of memory research supports this as well. It is a lot easier to picture a page in a physical book than even a page deliminated format like PDF.
I'd say CUDA has an even bigger lead over OpenCL than Nvidia has over AMD in the gaming market.
yes, but i would just amend your prelude to "i'll leave it to professionals to allocate my capital efficiently...". some folks might know how to calculate an efficient portfolio, but may not want to manage such a thing (tracking dozens/hundreds of equities and adjusting periodically).

interestingly, like other industries, there's a tension between available surplus and efficiency in finance. the less money siphoned off by active fund managers, the more efficient the market.
For me, it's more like, "How I never replaced email with Facebook."

From reading books like "Yes Means Yes!", "Witches, Midwives, and Nurses", or "The Will to Change".

From observing mainstream and right-wing media's treatment of sexual predators—especially the narrative of concern for their reputations, academic careers, etc.

From sitting in on violent men's groups, and realizing that the roots of their violence are common to all supposedly "non-violent" men. It's plain to see that the man who throws his cousin down a staircase, or kicks open his girlfriend's door to make demands of her does so for the same reasons that old men shout at waitresses, call female politicians "whore, "bitch", and "cow", roofie drinks, wear uniforms, hire secretaries, don't hire women engineers, and generally do the complex and pervasive work to substantiate sexist collective ontologies as a "society" of "rape culture."
That might be misconstrued as property damage :D

Can't you get another email address and forward your google mail to it, and then phase out usage of the gmail address? That's what I've done.
Would you notice if that URL was “raw.githubusercontent.someotherdomain.com” instead of “raw.githubusercontent.com”?

I’m pretty sure at least 50% would merrily copy & paste it in their shell.
Scaling My Side Project From $5K to $25K per month
I grew up in poverty, dropped out of high school in the 10th grade, and gave up on life. Then, floundered until I turned 21. Decided to try to turn my life around.Was encouraged by a significant other to try school again. Got a GED. Enrolled in a state school. Discovered I am actually not bad at college math. Realized that computer science is at the intersection of computers and math, and that I might be able to succeed at it. Aced every class and applied to the top 10 schools in the country. Was accepted and transferred to Stanford. Then, took advantage of every opportunity to get involved in the software engineering profession.

It was an uphill battle the entire way. Should we be looking to my life-path as a scalable way out of poverty?

> Obviously people in the lives of children impact them. Does seeing, possibly, a black engineer on TV count as being in the life of a child?

Yes, definitely. TV is realer than real-life for most people. It's the average person's lens into the world, for better or worse.

Why is this a useful syntactic sugar?

EDIT: I'm dumb. The syntactic sugar is just operator overloading. The better question is why would you ever give that to a PHP developer? I've been digging through some of it, and it's just annoying to untangle some of the code people write, as compared to other languages.

Generally speaking: I blame the side which veto's the clean CR.

In 2018, that was the Democrats for example, who veto'd the clean CR in hopes to pass immigration reform. Fortunately, that shutdown was pretty short.

In 2019, there is a clear party which is refusing the clean CR agreement.

What People Say Before They Die
"I manage a machine learning team and I also think that at least partially automated data curation and modeling will reduce the number of people required in my field."

I mean, if it doesn't, what the hell are you even doing?

The whole point of technology and modern capitalism is to increase automation, increase the amount produced by the same number of workers, and increase the overall amount of wealth in the world and improve overall living conditions for everyone (setting aside very important questions of distribution). I just find it odd people in the computer technology industry find this shocking or especially worrying.

"I look more at Heroku’s model that AWS and GCP as the future."

Google's App Engine was much closer to the Heroku approach, and the AWS approach won. So I will be pretty surprised if the Heroku approach wins out.
No, you're asking the selling agent to give the 3% he would have given to the buyer's agent, and instead give it back to the seller.
It wasn't a blow out - if I recall, they gave a >30% chance for Trump to win. It seems perfectly ordinary for Trump to have won, then - "mild surprise" at most.

Their track record is still excellent.
I think it's one of those arguments that disappears once you account for context. No, the datestamp doesn't affect the quality of the encryption. Yes, it might matter if the last time this certificate was vouched for was 100 years ago for one year.
There are preventative measures that don't involve warrantless wiretaps. Why do mass shootings occur, in your estimation, in the first place?

I have a Huawei Watch (1st gen) [1], and have been using it nearly daily for a couple years now. I liked the round form factor because IMHO it looks nicer, and choose this one because at the time it was one of the few that didn't have the "flat tire" on the bottom.

It's thicker than my other (non-smart) watches, but not to an extent it's obtrusive in any way. I wear it most of the day and don't really notice it.

As far as the software part of the UX, a lot of it depends on what you do. I basically use my watch for a couple things:

* to tell the time, see my agenda and check the weather (all of which I can do from the watchface or 'home' screen)
* to get notifications of meetings and messages (and sometimes reply with a quick 'yes' or 'no' type message)

I can see why reading text on a circular screen is theoretically sub-optimal, but in practice it's not really noticeable as you scroll through. I don't really read long messages on it -- I'm mostly skimming it to see if I can respond quickly now, or if I need to get out my phone/laptop to read and/or respond now. The vast majority of messages I get can wait, and being able to tell that with a glance of my wrist (almost zero interruption) is quite handy.

There's a bunch of other apps available of course, but I found there's just not many good use cases for why using the app on a tiny screen is worth saving the 5 seconds it takes to retrieve my phone from my pocket and unlock it.

I don't think this is an issue at all of round vs square screen, at least not for what I personally thing a smart watch is useful for. Most of my interactions with my watch last for under 10 seconds. If you're doing more intensive things (using it minutes at a time) then maybe there's merit to why a larger rectangular screen is more useful -- but frankly, you probably have a much larger, better and significantly more usable rectangular display in your pocket, so it seems silly to argue about the watch display.

Makes sense! Things like FHA-backed loans are a much more effective tool in less-expensive regions. When the cost of a 3bdrm/2ba is $1.5M (roughly the current cost for a suburb outside Palo Alto), the maximum FHA loan max only gets you halfway there.
"Broadcast-only" means subscribers can't post to it. But they still can reply to the list owner. It could be mixed with a blog, if you wanted to make it possible for subscribers (and others) to publicly interact.

Also, I don't see a problem if a person finds my emails uninteresting and unsubscribes.
Nevermind it would have taken 2 seconds to setup a cron job to autorenew their SSLs. Typical government.
Wouldn't agree with you because a company that can return a higher rate of return on capital than one that can't get an allocation based on market cap.
I mean, I'm one of those crazy people who thinks constantly auto-renewed certs with a one-hour lifetime are a good idea. Though really only achievable when you're working with a private CA, unfortunately.

With a sufficiently short lifetime, you can throw up another barrier to compromises.
Why is it not possible to believe both? I believe that governments shouldn't exist, but given the fact that they obviously do, that they should do certain things. There's no necessary conflict in either set of beliefs.
I agree. And the problem is, each time this cycle happens, the company burns any consumer goodwill it's worked to achieve. (You see the same frantic, uncommitted stance to products with new Google initiatives these days.)

It's easy to see and say "this product is costing us money and isn't popular enough", and fail to realize "killing products over and over means people aren't going to try our next one". Long term stable support of a product line, even if it's not a top seller, is what's going to earn you consumer trust.
Would the default route table do that job? Subnets would be associated with that if they weren't explicitly assigned to another route table, right?
there's this thing called a "non-profit" - it's a good start.
> this comment may reveal why Apple is crushing everybody else: they understood the user and sold that user a _watch_ rather than a "media consumption" device.

On the flip side, if Apple isn't crushing everybody else, it's because they misunderstood typical users and thought they wanted a tiny phone on the wrist, rather than a watch.

Disclosure: Fitbit employee, but I don't speak for Fitbit. My opinion that Apple isn't crushing everybody else isn't based on any inside info, but on the article below that reported that less than half of Holiday 2017 Apple Watch sales were the then-current model. Most of their sales were discounted old inventory, so usually they didn't get to charge $450 per unit sold.

The TSA is a funding apparatus. The TSA employees need training and equipment, which is all bought from private companies.

Very interesting story. He has been outed later as a child sex offender (http://barristerblogger.com/2017/08/09/unfortunate-silencing...).
The legal fiction known as a "corporation" is a government regulation. So there's that.
> Also, I don't see a problem if a person finds my emails uninteresting and unsubscribes.

Sure, but do all of your recipients know that? The point is that some people would be very uncomfortable doing this, even if you wouldn't subjectively be offended by it. And as the author notes, doing an opt-in system makes things complicated and potential excludes less tech-savvy folks.
I have serious doubts about eye strain being a long term issue especially since current preventative methods for it are literally 'stare at something far away for 20 seconds once an hour.' I mean people have been working full-time jobs staring at a monitor for decades now, and the alarm bells haven't been ringing.

To your last point, you can get eyestrain from reading for too long(ask any reader!)
As a fellow band 1/2 upside down wearer I absolutely concur
A certificate is essentially a cryptographic key that one entity (the "issuer") asserts was issued to some other entity (the "subject"). Whether that assertion is true now, was true a day ago, or was never true does not affect the strength or usefulness of that key for cryptography. Other attributes of the key, like its bit length, do matter, but when it was issued and when it "expires" absolutely do not.

I find this misleading because the implied value of the certificate to the end user, that "you can be sure you are talking to the entity you think you are talking to and nobody else", is not really what the issuer is promising. They're just saying something like "we verified the company that bought this really is named XYZ". They are NOT saying that "the entity that operates the server you're communicating with is under the control of XYZ corp". It's entirely possible for a certificate to be sold to XYZ corp, which emails the certificate to a IT consultant, which FTPs it to a Word Press hosting company that deploys it to a server run by a cohosting company where it's used to market services that are fulfilled by independent contractors. The issuer doesn't touch on anything beyond the first step in that chain but the browser's freaking out and going full red screen the second the certificate "expires" might make you think that it does.

The federal limit of 55 mph was set by Nixon during the gasoline shortages due to OPEC supply control. Clinton repealed it, so some states went up to 70 mph. Today we might consider enforcing them to help reduce carbon consumption (and collision fatalities).

Heck, maybe it's time to go back to 55 as a federal limit. Last I checked, most vehicles on the road get dramatically better gas mileage at 55. Rather, it gets exponentially worse as speeds increase past 60ish due to wind resistance.
Oh it's just MD on Github.

Even The Culture Series, which Iain Banks started in the late 80's, is post-cyberpunk.

I almost feel like the author of the blog went and read Altered Carbon for the first time and somehow thought it was a continuation of Gibson and Stephenson's work. Neither of their latest stuff feels very "cyberpunk" to me. Maybe more so with "The Peripheral", but certainly not Seveneves.

Also following the unwritten rules esp the newer gigantic dorm prisons where there are countless rules since you're all crammed in there. The violence here is from your own group if you break the rules because they're trying to get rid of you from that dorm before it escalates. A typical prison intake you are met by another inmate who already somehow knows everything about you and has already announced you to everybody else. He brings you to your group in the dorm and they tell you the rules. Nothing ever happens after that for 90% of inmates not involved in gangs except really grinding prison labor everyday.
Maybe designing things to break periodically without intervention wasn't such a good idea.
I was, and in many ways still am. And to the degree that I focused on being able to retire early, it was so that I could work on software projects of my choice.

In my case, various forms of adversity struck, and early retirement is no longer possible. And even if it were, my desire to blast away on open source projects has waned considerably.

Plan ahead for the possibility that your preferences might be rather different in twenty years.
I duck it.
That's totally insane.

Assuming they were using best practices and something like LetsEncrypt (unlikely) or even a larger outfit that implements ACME (do those even exist yet?).

No, more likely, there's a sysadmin somewhere that's furloughed, has the reminders in his inbox, and has to kick off an arduous procurement process involving three layers of bureaucratic horseshit involving five signoffs each, and at least a 60 day window before Verisign nee Symantec gets paid an exhorbitant amount of money and issues the all important bit of code.

No doubt this is exaggerated, but I firmly believe that government/large enterprise procurement is one of the levels of hell. Take something that should be a simple, five minute process and stack layers upon layers of nonsense on top.

It's 48bits, so a space or around 2.8 million billion possibilities, so you'd need a over a million billion devices to have a 50% chance of collision. _If_ everything was statistically randomly distributed across the entire address space. But they aren't. There's a few kinds of structure in MAC address formats that reduce that but potentially a _lot_...

Theoretical worst care, a MAC address has 24bit of organisation identifier and 24 bits of device identifier. So If an organisation/manufacturer only makes one model of device, they'd "only" need to build ~16.7 million (24bits) of them before they repeated a device identifier (if they chose not to use up any of their organisation bits to reflect that rollover). Again, maybe half that if they just randomly choose a device ID each time instead of enumerate the space.

Practically? Manufacturers screw up...

Oooops...

(Also, many Wi-Fi adaptors have easily changeable MAC addresses. Back in the day when cafes used to charge for Wi-Fi access, it wasn't uncommon to sniff the network for a "paid up" MAC address, and either wait til they left and use it, or de-auth them and do a hostile takeover of their paid-for internet access. Apologies to anyone who used to pay for "unreliable" Wi-Fi at Atlas Cafe on Alabama St back in the late 90s/early 2000s...)

Huh, what's terrible about it? BFS is exactly what I'd want.

Let's make up a synthetic problem, like "the closest friend which has property X". Then you'd first check all of your direct friends for X, then check friends-of-friends for X, then check friends-of-friends-of-friends for X, and so on.
You'd go on forever until you either find a friend with property X, or run out of time/space.

This is the classic BFS problem, and I can see how it would make a good interview question.

Ive asked before, but what do we do if a political party and the president they put in office is taking over the country?

If I read the founding fathers, violence would be called for. But I don't mean me, or even a group of my buddies. This seems like, esp with the forceful quitting of Gen. Matt is, could indicate a potential coup situation in the military.

And we already aren't paying a branch of the armed services: US Coast Guard.

This terrifies the living hell out of me. I see no exit ramp; no amicable discussions; and the country further dissolving at the bureaucratic seams. And it seems intentional.
I use this sometimes with some C/C++ code.

Mostly, if I want a break somewhere I do this:

*(int*)0 = 1;

Which will result in a crash, I attach my debugger, run the code and if it reaches that line it will break and I can inspect everything I want.

It's easier than adding a __asm(int3) because it's cross platform. On windows for example it's not possible to perform inline assembly in x64 builds, and compiler intrinsics are not portable.
A surprising amount of the American political system was built around our natural human desire to avoid being shamed. Once you have a political figure who is shameless all the rules chance.
I think debuggers are not worth the cost for many kinds of debugging scenarios. They're great for stepping through projects you're not really familiar with or in situations where code seems to be in violation of baseline expectations, but fiddling around with breakpoints and watches and other UI particularities of the debugger carries more cognitive overhead than "print debugging". Additionally, I think the problem is better solved by using thoughtful and contextualized logging with appropriate severity levels. Couple this with a TDD approach to development and you'll end up in a workflow that is just faster than stepping through lines of code when you could have your assumptions verified through logs and test assertions.

Those Drivers' Watches were clever but were an invented need much like Pilots' Watches; the actual pros mostly use a plurality of clocks on the console of their vehicle, not an expensive little fragile mechanism on their wrist.

Somehow though Pilots' Watches have survived as a lucrative luxury item. An actual navigator's watch is primarily a stopwatch. The pilot doesn't need much more than a Casio.
Haha you’ve got a point there. We just couldn’t leave them out of the square watch discussion, could we?
