Allen isn't one of the 12. He has passed away. That leaves one out of 12. (BTW, in their efforts to pass a capital gains tax in Washington, the proponents argue it isn't an income tax. I don't agree with that, but there it is.)
The IETF QUIC working is well-aware of this, and is attempting to save design room for future QUIC versions as much as possible. The "QUIC invariants" spec documents everything that is guaranteed not to change, but other than than everything in a future QUICv2 could be updated (e.g. tls version, features, large parts of packet header layout).
Not millennial speak. I agree

None are bad. All have amazing animation styles that alone make them not bad.
Do you have a trustworthy source for these claims?

Maybe this is a platform dependant issue? On Arch each private window is independent, or so it seems. I was actually hoping for what you describe and instead found that when visiting my company website in two different private windows I had to login to each window separately. I found this so annoying because accessing some system amin tools on a few of our pages requires an annoying number of steps.
Onedrive.
I didn't consider that about QUIC. Ouch, that is going to be painful as it gains traction. ECMP hashing assumptions may need to be re-evaluated.
Yeah, this is a good point.

Then again, I worry that the current social/political climate isn't a good one for people on the autistic spectrum (or neurodiversity) in general.

Someone in this situation would already potentially be a whole lot of trouble (especially if the offendee goes on the internet with the complaints), neurodiversity hiring program or not.

“Definition of autist: a person affected with autism”

This whole discussion is in the context of people with autism being sought out by an employer because they are very good at certain skills. The fact you would take “autist” as a negative term about a person suggests some prejudice on your part against autism, rather than being someone who celebrates people’s differences

What your system install does and whether the default is good for what you intend to do is a bit different from what the system allows. If you want to use a piece of software, you’re expected to somewhat understand what it does. At least reading the “setup” chapter of the documentation which explains which ENV var to set should be recommended. (I specifically link to the 1.7 docs to show that it’s been in there for quite some time) https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/1.7/...

The recommendation is btw: at most half of the systems memory, no more than 31g (due to how the jvm compresses heap pointers), and keep at least as much memory available for disk buffers/caches as you allocate to the heap.
Can you expand on the AWS culture of backstabbing? (Serious question: Could that be due to the number of H1-B employees they have?)

He was fired from his ministerial job in 1937 and later sent to a concentration camp.

By that metrics, most German citizens of that generation are guilty.
I imagine after the design of the 737 Max was completed, some customers requested that feature, and Boeing said "For just $100k extra, we'll design and build it for you". They then set an engineer to build and test the feature, probably costing nearly $100k. That airline then got the feature they'd paid extra for, and other airlines/groups of airlines didn't get it because it isn't officially part of the design.
Also an employer.

I would generally define this as not during work hours. Work hours are flexible, but don't be stupid: just don't interleave work stuff and personal project stuff and use your own equipment and you'll be fine.

ie if you take breaks from work and instead of wasting time on HN or reading news you bang out code on your personal projects, I'm not going to be enthused about that. But if you generally work 10-6 or so, and by 610 you've shut our laptop and you're coding away on your personal laptop? Great, have fun. Please don't burn out.

And ditto re: trust. The way to solve not trusting your employees is to fire them and hire trustworthy ones.

As a concrete example: we have had to implement a lot of data table stuff in javascript. If an employee copied that (functionality, not our code) and productized it, I wouldn't care. We'd probably even license it. I would want a discount on that license :)

This generally only applies in CA, and also to companies that are heavily invested in keeping the goodwill of their employees. Personally, I don't pick fights I can't win, and having valued eng leave is definitely not a win.
Ask HN: What will Silicon Valley do once it runs out of Doug Engelbart's ideas?
I don’t know specifically about the MAX, but based on the thrust vector if a pilot in a stall put in more power before nosing down the plane would pitch up and you’d be put into an even deeper stall. The MCAS is there to nose down automatically for you if a stall is detected.
I'm actually more interested in having MIPS go open source than I am in RISC-V.

It's complete, hardware is extant, and the tooling is mature. I'm really, really hoping the MIPS Open initiative doesn't miss the boat.
What Is Customer Development?
It doesn't actually matter what has or has not happened under Trump. There is a sizable contingent of people on the left who believe the President of the USA is a criminal supported mainly by racists. I personally disagree but those beliefs open up too very easy prongs of attack to counter 'it can't happen here' arguments:

* They likely believe the situation went from everything being fine to everything being not fine at extreme speed in 2016

* They have just been subjected to 2 years of evidence of their political tribe's relative impotence removing a criminal from high office

Those beliefs should be a lot easier to push the idea that government capability is the threat, not the governments current intentions.

I'd argue that the graph you linked to actually shows significant differences between countries.

Yes, they all experienced the depression around the same time, and if you just look at the signs of the slopes there's a lot of similarity.

However, the US was barely back to its pre-depression peak by 1940, while Germany was way higher. The only country in that graph that is somewhat comparable to Germany is the UK.
Exactly, but instead of requiring the retraining of pilots for a new airplane that flies significantly differently then the previous model, Boeing put in an automated system and charged extra for the instrumentation needed to determine if that system is failing.
That's a powerful machine. It won't run well on most common SBCs, for instance, let alone the hundreds of millions of older machines the world over that chug along with older versions of Windows.

The problem with end user programming is that no matter how much easier you try to make the interface to use, programming requires some ability to think logically and understand systems and anybody who can do that is going to get frustrated by guard rails and just want to do ‘real’ programming eventually. There’s never going to be the magic interface that unlocks coding for everyone because most people just don’t think that way and the people that do, don’t need a more intuitive interface.

Which isn’t to say that quality of life improvements aren’t important, I just don’t think they’ll turn non-programmers to programmers in any great number.

I knew a couple of people who worked at Stanford in various capacities (admissions, and administration, IIRC) -- and while I didnt understand what they were good at, or what they did per se, they were some of the more genuinely nice and honest than many people I have met.

My problem is that I am too naive to sharks and assholes.

I have met thousands and thousands of people in may 22 year career in tech. Of which a very very small number I am friends with still - as I find that many people are way more cunning and conniving than I allow myself to admit.
> For crying out loud can we move away from these simplistic, ugly UIs. I’m tired of looking at unimaginative colored rectangles on machines capable of displaying cool, photo-realistic artwork. Make Google/Apple/etc. hire entire teams of hundreds of artists to create cool, extremely-difficult-to-render UIs with beautiful buttons, etc. and then bad actors won’t be able to just hack together a real-looking UI in 5 minutes.

While I agree that today's phone UIs are boring, I don't think replacing them with photorealistic, "extremely-difficult-to-render" UIs is a good idea -- nor would that protect against imitation by malicious app publishers.

Usability would go straight out the window. Every menu in every app would become an assault on the eyes, or at least an incredible nuisance. UI elements should be clear and consistent, and should stay out of the way.
US is one of the few countries I’ve been to that doesn’t check any papers at all on your way out (not to say they can’t start doing that).
It is not a coincidence that people increasingly call the moderates (GOP and Democrats) in the US “corporatists”, which is a shortening of “corporate fascists”.

From what I can tell, if you are a republican corporatist, you are sometimes called a neocon. If you are democratic, then the term is neoliberal.

I might be missing some subtle distinction between the terms, but I think these definitions are basically accurate.

As a nerdy programmer and human computer interaction researcher, the fact that we are getting incredibly close to having all of the bits required (multitouch, extremely high pixel density screens, batteries/processors that merely add millimeters of thickness to it, recent advances in neural networks, fast enough wireless connectivity to stream high resolution interactive content, etc.) to build this technology is extremely exciting.

As someone who has been doing their best over the past ~10 years to understand how technology has interfaced with societies, cultures, political & business interests, etc. over human history - and all the ways that it has gone wrong - the first thing that I can think of is: who will make this "Young Lady's Primer", and what are their incentives for making it?

A Young Lady's Primer built by the Chinese Communist Party, or Facebook, or American evangelical Christians would be an extremely scary thing.

How can we nerd out on building the former while actively working against the latter?

Some employers are quite strict, so avoid those (google, famously). Avoid even a hint of crossover with your employer’s business, use your own equipment and time, and work for a successful company that is too busy with its own customers.

There is a rise of hate crimes committed by conservatives, a high profile example being the recent New Zealand killer who praised Trump in his manifesto. Also an increase in hate crimes against Muslims.

I can think of two high profile fake hate crimes, as you mention. But that number is dwarfed by the number of actual hate crimes, which continue daily.

I haven't heard about the violence against conservatives you mention... Can you point me at an example so I can learn more?
Indeed, if they lowered patent compensation they are explicitly signaling that it is of less value and importance. The fact that this engineer doesn’t want to contribute anymore lines up with that.

"Innovation is key" is a mantra that sounds good, but it's not true. It's what people want to believe. It's like saying you need to constantly buy lottery tickets so you don't risk being a poor retiree.

If you have established a business and you bank on "innovation" your likelihood of anything from a net loss to catastrophic failure is actually quite high. In the long run, most companies fail anyway, whether they attempt to innovate or not.

Case in point, those companies that did survive in the S&P 500 since its inception don't strike me as particularly innovative:

I did, I had to pedal the exact hill I'm talking about and it definitely wasn't easy; I sweat through my suit because of that. Sold (back to the shop) the bike the next day. Instead of it I got an illegal chinese e-scooter that has 800w and is just perfect in every way. Never had a problem with the police, btw. Sadly I had to give my business to a Chinese supplier instead of local.
Unrelated to this technology but related to peppers in general: if while they are whole you grab the stem and push inside until it breaks, you can take out the part to discard with all the seeds quickly; I don't get why I see people and cooks spending time cleaning the seed part with knives after cutting them.

Without these clauses Employers don't have a chance at getting the IP.

Agreed on the value of AoA; it’s a toss-up whether we’ll be upgrading in the next couple years. Not much sense in adding it to a plane we might be selling shortly as it doesn’t bring much increase in resale. Next airplane is likely to have it as OE.
Python's async support also seems to be getting better. There's a flask clone called Quart (http://pgjones.gitlab.io/quart/) and an async postgres client (https://github.com/MagicStack/asyncpg). It works very similar to JavaScript, with async and await keywords. I think it should provide speed and comfort especially if you're a regular JavaScript user.
If you pick a random S-Box you can see that there is an expected value for its nonlinearity. On the other hand, you can also look at the maximum amount of nonlinearity you can have in an S-Box of a given size (and also some other properties). Then you can maximize those. This was done with DES.

The S-Boxes used here on the other hand have a whole lot of structure, i.e. linearity, that has been put there intentionally. This is generally the opposite of what you would want to see in a S-Box. It is of course hypothetically possible that these linearity combine with other parts of the algorithm in a way to result in greater non-linearity or specific hardening against specific unknown attacks, but this does sound a bit far-fetched in my ears (I can't think of precedent for this; e.g. in DES the issue that was worked around was related to differential linearity, and it wasn't solved by adding more linearity into the algorithm).

The fact that you use it all the time doesn't mean it's good design. Often it takes time to find solutions which allow the same benefits without increasing complexity.

3D touch is a the equivalent of "just add more buttons". Sure, people will use the buttons. Doesn't mean it was the best design.
That's not really a fair comparison. In the case that the IP changes for quic, tcp would have to completely re-establish the connection. A cross core memory access is tiny in comparison.

> Never am I confused at what it's doing: I have a perfect mental model of the machine that I then use to reason about it's behavior.

This seems to be making a good case against your point.

Despite what you say here, motorcycles are horribly dangerous compared to a car. Having a good mental model is just not that relevant to safety. Often we specifically make things safe by not leaving a human fully and completely in charge, because humans are imperfect and make mistakes.

> With a car or in the 737 Max case, the user is unable to develop a mental model of the machine, thus making correct and safe operation difficult.

Planes are extremely safe. People fearing planes because they don't control them is even a known phobia.
As someone who works full time in Python and TypeScript, I find the typing experience quite similar in both languages. You can be "productive" in both languages "in medium-to-large-sized projects".
