This is how Firefox container tabs work. I have several color coded tabs like Work, Personal, Gmail2, etc. It lets me use my personal Gmail in its own orange tabs then the blue tabs are my work gmail. It's made dealing with gcloud/aws and different logins for the same portals way better than my previous Chrome workflow of having different profiles I had to switch between.

I think you are right about this. The previous response said they received 10 spam calls for every 1 real one. I'm probably about the same. My email spam isn't even close to that. 50 to 1, inbox, maybe?

Capable isn't the same thing as interested. I know many smart people who have no interest in programming (and wonder why I enjoy it). As The Atlantic said:

> Then again, it could just be that, feeling financially secure and on equal footing with men, some women will always choose to follow their passions, rather than whatever labor economists recommend. And those passions don’t always lie within science [or technology].
Here's what I think happened: women become a hot commodity. Tech companies have been trying to get their diversity numbers up for years know and the best way to do so is to hire some URMs, but the supply is still low, thus the cost to hire URMs has risen, leading to the higher average salary, and the subsequent adjustment.
The infrastructure improvements needed to support the data center will be paid for by $20.1 million in state bonding - that is, they'll be paid for over time by Minnesota taxpayers at large. So there's no "shortfall" for Becker or Sherburne County, but only because the rest of the state is picking up the tab.

The distinction you are looking for is parametric vs. geometric.

Parametric models such as Solidworks or Creo use complex equations to derive the 3D geometry. Geometric models use a point cloud built from polygons to develop surfaces. These point clouds are defined by the user and are not as "stable" when used in product development setting where you are trying to create multiple iterations/sizes of an object

Do they really though? In my experience, school teachers don't really have either and both are either learned on the job or academically taught when pursuing the major.
Being a great teacher is tough, but very few teachers are actually great.

Being a university professor is IMO, among the hardest positions to get. In my experience, the smartest people I know are university professors.

If anything, many university professors are grossly underpaid (for what they offer) in exchange for job security and complete freedom to pursue what they love.
So an innocent person who's unable to afford bail either has to wait in jail for their court date or pay a fee for their freedom? That doesn't seem inhumane at all?
People rightly fear being labelled as X-phobic for various values of X because it can easily ruin their careers or lives.

This fear likely constitutes a more effective mechanism for turning large numbers of people away from genocidal hatred of various forms of "otherness" than rewarding positive behavior or making a reasoned case because it scales better. So the claim that fear of otherness can't be counteracted by other fears seems implausible to me.

It is when we're talking about outcomes within a field. Either you think women deserve to be paid less or not — there isn't really a third possibility there. If they do deserve worse outcomes, then either they suck innately or they suck because they're not interested, but either way you're saying they suck.

I would be surprised if there's anything preventing bail bondsmen from sending text messages to their clients. I mean, there's nothing preventing them from physically apprehending their suspects after they skip bail, so sending a text message is definitely within their means.

The problem with lowering the maximum rate is that this would put high-risk suspects in jail since they wouldn't even have the choice of making bail. Which is the same problem with abolishing cash bail. With cash bail, if someone's a higher risk, the judge can set a higher level of bail in case there's a bondsman willing to stick his neck out for him.

And the deal might not be limited to tax breaks. State Sen. Andrew Mathews (R–Milaca) and state Rep. Shane Mekeland (R–Clear Lake) recently introduced a bill to provide an additional $20.1 million in state bonds to give the Becker Business Park—where the data center would be built—a facelift.

Is Google actually demanding that? Do the benefits of that investment accrue solely to Google?

The sponsor of the bill claims to be supporting it whether or not Google selects Becker.

Funny, I moved furniture at a warehouse for about 3 years from 2001-2003 and it was by far the worst job I've ever had (by an order of magnitude) but, it made me who I am today. This is basically what I did (step 6 is comedy gold):

https://www.wikihow.com/Become-a-Lumper

The sheer brutality of doing something you don't really want to do, for up to 9 or 10 hours a day, sometimes 6 or 7 days a week, causes physiological changes in the body. For example, by the end of it (something like 500 moves) I was completely flat-footed (my arches fully recovered eventually) and no longer distinguished between hot or cold weather. A 110 degree day didn't really feel any different than a 10 degree day, I just wore different layers. I could pick up an overstuffed chair and haul it up several flights of stairs, but felt a tremendous indignation if I had to bend over to pick up a stuffed animal.

For a while I came up with what felt like one new invention a day that would alleviate much of the physical labor and danger from the job. Pretty much everyone just scoffed at them though, because moving furniture is generally a job you walk on to, not a job that you improve or automate.

So this video was very refreshing to me, to see some of the most basic techniques, like padding the entryway to prevent damage, actually being applied.

Chaining is IMHO not very relevant. Connect one monitor to your PC. Then you connect another. You still need a second cable. The question is which device does that second cable plug into? To me its actually more natural for it to plug in the PC than to the first monitor. I can see use cases, but for the average person it doesn't make a lot of sense. OTOH you need a HDMI output per display for up to N displays and that might be a problem for people with 3 monitors. I have opted to just use a single 55" 4K TV instead of multiple monitors, but apparently I'm in the minority. Even with that, I still want a second HDMI output.
> To put it another way, are you going to convince your entire art team to leave behind the toolchain they have used their entire career

Yes. Because they will start out using these tools. Having experts be able to oversee novices is very powerful, esp w/o having to transport files, load and diff, etc. An expert can hop into someones session, show a technique, do a quick critique and move on.
Isn't most of the U.S. in the top 1-5% of the world? Again, I'm against the tax structure to begin with... I'd rather see most exceptions eliminated.

> there's always a kind of in-between state where you aren't quite sure what you want to do with a tab.

It feels like that's the state I'm in with regard to most tabs. It also feels like these tabs are more important than those I've already bookmarked, which seems paradoxical.
I strongly agree with this and relate as someone who makes a very good living as a computer programmer but has received nearly no financial assistance from parents (a few thousands dollars for college tuition but not all of it covered) who do not have much in liquid assets.

The parent comment highlights is an important divide that's exacerbating the wealth gap in the USA: The difference between millennials whose Gen X parents are a financial liability versus a financial advantage.

The Gen X'ers are either passing onto their kids either hundreds of thousands in investment and savings income, or tens of thousands in medical and elderly care liabilities. Few in my "millennial" generation are talking about it, but as their parents get older, the contrast is getting more noticeable among friends who have to deal with very different parental situations. It's dangerously perpetuating "wealth gaps" across generations. I fear it will not end well for society when more debt-laden adults see others who are coasting off of what their parents' gave them.

I remember a friends cracked out rant after a 48 hour all hands debugging binge to find a bug deep inside auto-generated JavaScript and HTML. They were using unicode text strings to tie the gobbledegook back to the source inputs and then trying to reason about what the code was supposed to do.

Comparison debugging mixed C source and assembly in a debugger is trivial.
I definitely prefer real books when reading technical documentation. However, when I'm at work, as long as I'm staring at a computer screen, nobody bothers me. The minute I start looking at a printed book, somebody with some (real or imagined) authority comes along and says, "watcha readin', commandlinefan? Why are you reading a book? Not enough real work to keep you busy? Why are you reading about Scala, why don't you ask Srinivas, he knows Scala? 'cause you should know by now that nothing matters except the deadlines, just work without understanding what you're doing or looking for optimal ways of implementing things because if we miss those deadlines it doesn't make any difference whatsoever but it's the only fucking thing we keep track of and the only fucking thing we measure performance based off of", so I settle for the far inferior freely available online documentation or the eye-straining PDF scans I can find.
There's a social/business issue here as well.

Suppose you're selling a code generator. The customer using that code generator is going to ask "what happens if you disappear? How do we maintain our code?" This drives them to demand that the code you generate being able to be continue to be maintained on its own, even if the code generator rots and dies. And that means it must be readable.

I've seen a case where a company has been stuck with generated code, and not only did they not have the code generator, they didn't even have the documentation for the code generator (nor anyone who ever used it). The company that sold the code generator had died many years earlier.

This same consideration doesn't apply to compilers, because you can buy compilers from many vendors, as well as get well-supported free ones.

>I do understand that in all cases when the tail part of the function is executed [...] then at some point we clear %eax;

>If we do this later in the function, like just before returning, we can use %eax for other purposes in the meanwhile.

Okay, I think we completely agree here!

>that's not semantically the same as initializing ret.

Hmm, so is it that you're asking why we're initializing ret? Well, that sounds like a good excuse as any for another incredibly long and boring wall of text =]

If I'm extra lucky I'll get called out as the amateur I am and learn something in the process (!)

---

So, here's the thing. Talking about the compiler initializing ret as a variable, separate from its storage in eax is not really what the compiler is trying to do, not as I understand it.
We really aren't "initializing it" so much as trying to guess it's value in all possible executions (because that's just what compilers do these days).

The way the compiler works is that first it gets rid of the idea of variables that can be assigned multiple times, it switches to something called SSA form where every "variable" is initialized exactly once. Want to reassign a variable? Just declare one with a new name instead and use it going forward.

The funny part of SSA is that when there's a branch, after it joins back you end up having to define a variable that could have two possible values (branch taken, not taken).
That's not something you should normally be able to do with the SSA rules, so it's represented by a special Phi "value" in the compiler's intermediate representation.

A Phi basically just says "either we came from path A and we have value Va, or from B and it's Vb".

But what the compiler really wants is to forget about the branch and the Phi business, and just deduce a plain value for ret so it can move on with cold hard numbers in mind.

Since we have undefined behavior here, we can simplify Phi<Undef, [0, 0]> into just [0, 0]. And that's how the compiler "forgets" that ret was uninitialized in the first place. It just optimizes the undefinedness away while trying to guess values, if you will.

So long story short we're not so much trying to intialize ret than we're trying to guess it's value, and forget that there were multiple branches in the first place.
Don't try to put words in my mouth with that false dichotomy.

If someone isn't interested in programming, they don't "suck" at it. They just don't do it.
If by “bail fee” you mean the money that the bail bondsman charges you, then no, it is not. You can basically think of bail bondsmen like a bank. You are borrowing money from them to get out of jail. Their fee is like a high interest rate on the loan. They are a completely separate entity than the court that decides whether you are guilty or innocent. For instance- if you hired a lawyer and were found innocent, would you expect the lawyer to refund you your legal fees? Same with the bail bondsman. He is just doing the job you paid him to do (get you out).
I understand how that works but we're going to need to draw a line somewhere. Going by job, rank, and salary alone could ignore hours worked per week (statistically men tend to do more in the same role), bonuses for high quality work (who knows how this plays out?), etc. I could choose whatever filters I want to frame the data how I want it to, it's one of the biggest tricks of the "women are paid X less than men" camp.
> "Fire fighting" gets you hailed as a hero. "Fire prevention" tends to be dismissed as "You didn't really do anything. You just got lucky." Humans are super bad at counting the disasters that didn't happen, but should/would have. So "fire fighting" is more attractive, "sexy" and heroic.

I was at a Fire Service training course this last few weekends. And something one of the Fire / Medics said really resonated with me.

"We save lives every day. Not in a heroic way. We just don't think of it:

We give the respiratory distress patient ventilations so they don't go into respiratory, then cardiac, arrest.

We give the overdose patient ventilations so they don't go into respiratory, then cardiac, arrest.

We give the anaphylactic patient epinephrine...

and so on, and so forth.

But we don't look at it as a 'save' unless they get to the brink of death (well, technically death, but still), and we bring them back."

It's this kind of thing which gets abused in politics. You see the same thing with a certain countries in the Middle East.

So, you're a boring white male who works in one of these industries. You're told constantly that you benefit from "white male privilege". Your experience, the statistics, clearly show this to be bullst.

What do you do? Do you trust anything that other authority figures tell you? Of course not. So you stop your kids getting vaccinated and vote for your country to leave the EU because it means 350 million a week more for your National Health Service..

This is the trap progressives - whose number I count myself in - must do better to avoid if they want to progress towards a fairer and better world.
I would be HIGHLY against this idea of an implant, it feels far too distopian (and I'd argue possibly against a person's right to their body).

I'm not in the medical field but I'm sure there's many places such as "closish" to an artery that trained doctors would have no issues getting at but a random joe with a switch blade may have issues with. I'd figure just detecting the temperature change and alerting the authorities would be easier though, then you can place it just like a standard animal tracker, e.g. a needle in their arm/back.
This is a false dichotomy. There is non-cash bail too, and other systems of encouraging or ensuring people attend court.
OK, so here are the options I've seen people deploy for 2FA:

1. Force users to register two U2F tokens. Google's 'advanced protection' requires this.

2. Have users print out one-time-use recovery codes and put them somewhere safe. This is what Google does without 'advanced protection'.

3. Require the user to provide a cell phone number, thus offloading the problem to cell phone companies, introducing all the insecurities that result from that. This is what Apple does (as far as I can tell)

4. AWS is similar, but requires both an e-mail and an automated phone call.

5. Github delegates 2FA recovery to Facebook, via their "Recover Accounts Elsewhere"

6. Facebook allows the user to designate 'trusted contacts' who can get a code they can give to the user in person or over the phone.

7. Have the customer contact customer services, who follow a process companies are cagey about disclosing.

8. In corporate settings, just have them visit helpdesk in person.

We need attribution on caller ID info as a first step. Caller ID should read

"212-555-1212 per T-Mobile, CenturyLink, Adino". Like mail headers. T-Mobile says the call came in from CenturyLink. CenturyLink says it came in from Adino. The telco knows most of this now, they just don't pass it forward. Someone upstream may be lying, but you can usually tell. If the number is US local but the path goes through Mumbai, something is wrong.
