As an attempt to sway you, consider that I'm in no way suggesting that the past was good, rather just that the present is worse.

Also, a caveat is that I'm not saying it was a better/nicer/more fulfilling experience doing frontend development in the past (e.g. IE <7), but rather that developers put in more effort, were more considerate, and generally achieved what little they managed to achieve within (what would today be considered) severely restricted environments, with far fewer resources / tools at their disposal.

Whether the output of that work was a better product is debatable, but I don't think it's untrue that devs did more with less (and when I say "more", I don't mean mean bloat).
That’s a fascinating tool! Now I realize I need to use more enjoyable words when discussing TypeScript :)
Very good advice all around. Thanks for the help!

There seems to be plenty of less-than-pleasant outputs from this net. I had a couple of strange ones when I landed: [1][2]. If those were generated with GAN, the adversarial network could really use another training pass with examples like this (and if GANs are not used, there could be a simple network filtering the first net's output).

Q1. Is dynamic testing of a commercial network allowed to researchers?

Probably not. Researchers should comply with any special legal requirements in their jurisdictions. Fortunately, for the purpose of inspecting and validating the vulnerabilities, two MNOs gave us a permission to conduct dynamic security testing on their testbed.

>I have always been all-in on "no brexit" for last three years.

I've always been fascinated by the "drive it off of the cliffs" mentality, and I don't mean this as an affront, in any form or fashion.

For example, what is your opinion of the breakdown of the Good Friday agreement? Is there a genuine belief that the bombings wouldn't recur or is it more of an NIMBY, so not my concern? (Again, not an affront, I genuinely want to understand.) Or what's the opinion on Scotland having another referendum on independence, since they voted remain?

It is possible that it was clear from the start that this is the right way to go, but a modern plane is a very complex and highly regulated piece of equipment. Even minor changes could have a long tail of ramifications for operation (some of those have been noted, such as likely very different performance when crabbing at crosswinds).

I am not saying that Boeing did not try to cut corners (I just do not know), but the current media circus painting Boeing as a bunch of [idiot engineers | greedy execs | lazy testers] is likely far from reality or at least a major oversimplification. Boeing planes (including 737 max) are still very safe (compare to cars). Mistakes should be calmly assessed and fixed and making a public circus of this simply pushes engineers to avoid everything but uber-conservative, uber-safe solutions, which has major costs in itself. My 2c.

If the movie was supposed to vilify financial scams instead of glorifying it yes it would be ironic. But Wolf of Wall Street was very glorified. Even when you think the anti-hero is finally going to get his just deserts he gets off relatively easy for supposedly committing a serious crime.

Defining irony has been a continuous argument online, but this definition seems to capture the essence of irony - "a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often wryly amusing as a result."
Well, archaic voting practices are constitutional practice. But the UK constitution is 'unwritten'. That means these practices could be easily changed, given the will.

In Westminster, voting usually happens by each MP physically moving into one of two lobbies. That is a very time consuming process, that can easily take twenty minutes per vote. There are no ballots, let alone a computerised voting system.

That the recent indicative votes happened on paper is extraordinarily modern. Preferential voting would clearly be a step too far.
Neat, but it seems to be missing the upcoming parliament vote on Monday. That one seems very important to me.
They don't need to do anything with shareholders to spy on anybody.

Heck, if China wants to spy on anybody, they don't even need to resort to technology to begin with... Unlike the PRC, USA is a more or less open society — want someone's secret? Just send your man there; Want to influence someone? Just ask......

I totally don't understand American concern with technology being used by espionage, while it lets this go.

उच्च रक्त चाप एक ऐसी जिस्मानी स्थिति है जिसे आमतौर से नजरंदाज कर दिया जाता है। बदकिस्मती यह है कि दुनिया भर में जितने लोग इससे मर रहे हैं, उतने किसी और बीमारी से नहीं। इससे भी ज्यादा खराब खबर यह है कि भारत व अन्य विकासशील देशों में उच्च रक्त चाप के कारण मृत्युदर में लगातार वृद्धि हो रही है।

अनियमित दिनचर्या और जीवन शैली की वजह से होने वाला तनाव आज शहरी आबादी और खासकर युवाओं में उच्च रक्त चाप की समस्या के रूप में तेजी से सामने आ रहा है।भारत की लगभग ३० प्रतिशत शहरी आबादी इस रोग की चपेट में बताई गई है। जबकि १० से १२ प्रतिशत ग्रामीण इस रोग से पीडित हैं। चिकित्सा विग्यान में निम्न रक्त चाप की तुलना में उच्च रक्त चाप ज्यादा नुकसानदेह बताया गया है। कारण ये है कि उच्च रक्त चाप से रोगी में अन्य कई तरह की जटिलताएं पैदा हो सकती हैं। ज्यादा रक्त चाप की परिणिति लकवा अथवा हार्ट अटेक में भी होती है। भारत में ३५ वर्ष से ज्यादा के लोगों में यह रोग तेजी से प्रवेश कर रहा है। यह चिंताजनक है क्योंकि यही आबादी देश की उत्पादक आबादी है।
No, that was not the case and this is not MV3.
I blame part of that attitude on the culture of whiteboard coding interviews.

This is not how developers work from day to day. Sure we might draw an architecture on the board.
But large scale industrial farmers don't have time to play Silicon Valley App of the day Sim 2019 either.

It's been debated to death and I am not sure the benefits of large scale farming outweigh smaller units.

Now you say they "play" Stardew valley... 60-80 hours a week in the field and having to take odd jobs to pay the farm's bill doesn't sound like "playing" to me. Actually, that's really aggressive to mock people like that.
I'm very much in the same boat as you. It's a pet peeve of mine that every building now seems to have a completely different climate to the outside world. I'll never get how people don't understand - or don't want to go through - the process of acclimatisation. If it's 30C outside, having the AC on at 20C all day is of course going to make 30C seem unbearably hot!

As a student I lived in the North of England in Newcastle, where temperatures averaged around 0C in the winter and because we couldn't afford heating the house was often around -2C. I would still walk around in t-shirt and shorts without problem. I later moved in with a group of girls who had the heating knocked up to 25C all year round, and within a week stepping out of the door felt like jumping into an ice bath. Rapid temperature change mess up so many of our bodily processes that I'm amazed it's discussed so little. If I don't sleep with a window wide open I know I'll struggle to get even a single cycle of REM sleep, and almost all of the people I've convinced to try sleeping with a window open and the heating off have told me their sleep improved ten-fold after a couple of weeks.
At a public meeting Thursday that ran nearly two hours long, multiple members of that committee, including Chair Tony Cox and Steven Packham of the Utah Division of Air Quality, said they do not agree that breathing air polluted with soot can lead to an early death.

That's why they are voting on the withdrawal agreement by itself.
They haven't done that before.
Isn't Monday too late? Doesn't the agreement with the EU stipulate that there needs to have been some real progress by today to justify extending until May 22, and if no real progress occurs by today, no deal Brexit occurs April 12?
There's no reason to assume people commenting here about risks use any of those sites and post their photos to them.
No wonder the public feel powerless.

The options are so obfuscated behind political complexity AND ever-changing that a simple voter (me) can't hope to keep up.

The moment you half-understand a scenario it is outdated, the days it takes to form a layperson's reasonable opinion are wasted grasping at now-irrelevant information.

It takes multiple hours per day to try and understand the details and their strategic importance.

I will forever remember this as a contradictory moment when the British public's political awareness was both at its greatest and weakest.

No positive outcomes look possible any more.

God, I'm loving this already. The only other framework I know that could do this for a book is Meteor.
Tinfoil hat: I'm actually on record as speculating that Brexit is just a big currency trading scam. Imagine that you go into Brexit knowing that you will make it fail. You spend 2 years sitting on your prosterior, not actually forming a deal and then at the last minute: OMG what are we going to do. The currency bounces around like a yoyo. You time all the nice low points. And then you cancel it saying "Oh we tried our best. Nothing we could have done. The EU was bent on screwing us if we left". The pound jumps 20 or 30 cents on the pound overnight.

I will literally fall over if it actually comes to pass, but like I said, this was my somewhat tongue in cheek speculation about 6 months ago (although I predicted that the budget would fail leading to a general election and an opportunity to repeal Brexit at that point, so I'm already technically wrong).
I presume I am talking to the author right now of the book [1]. Anyway I find fascinating that you used Ernest Becker ideas (his book denial of death) and others overlooked ideas. I would check out the book.

No what she actually wants is to pass this motion today so we can fix the May 22 leaving date and then we can move to the next stage. But seems the other parties are determined to continue playing political games instead.
I read the parent as saying he is against Brexit (all in on "no Brexit"), presumably for the reasons you articulate.
Yeah, that has happened to me too. Not sure why my comment has been downvoted.

Nice. We should connect. I've built this for security using a very similar stack (Neo, etc). Where it's similar is the use of a graph to implement an ontology of any given system, where we diverge is I've built a separate viz, collaboration, and management layer.

Ontologies never took off because I think they tried to encompass too many things, where graphs are a simple tool you can use to build them as part of a greater idea.

Politicians are covering eyes whilst saying "we can't see that happening". This generation of UK politicians are demonstrably proving themselves to be the worst in our history: Every vote, every debate they put party above national interest.

Anyone old enough to remember the peace process that was the decade+ leading up to the GFA is probably concerned that things could all too easily kick off again. All it takes is one kid doing something stupid at the border...
Yes, it was clear back in 2015 that article 50 was flawed and had no provision for displaced nationals. That and the aspect that no single MEP has spoke out about that flaw and done anything about it for any future use, even if too late for current utilisation is a sad inditement upon an institution that trumpets citizen rights.

That said, I still in our current useless political climate do not see the UK not doing the right thing about displaced nationals in the UK. But equally, wished article 50 was not flawed in a way that in effect has rendered displaced nationals as negotiation pawns. That's unfair, however you look at it.

FWIW I lobbied several MEP's and EU leaders about this flaw in article 50 back in 2015 and in 2016, and all I got was ignored and no MEP or EU leader wanted to address the issue and I came away feeling that deep down, they like the current flaw as any public fallout can be laid upon those utilising article 50. Which is even more worrying.
For each of the three locations I mentioned, you also need to contact the portable ECG with your finger. The finger is being used to create a closed loop. It is not a measurement site.
In my opinion the sad reality is that societies mostly advance by sticking their finger in their fire.

- If not for nukes we'd still be going full-on against each other in war.

- If not for Hitler, we'd probably still be engaged in top-down government driven eugenics. Something many do not know is that US "progress" on this topic was an early inspiration for Hitler.

And here too the solution will likely be letting things reach their natural climax. It's not difficult to imagine a practically infinite number of extreme scenarios when you have centralized authorities with effectively unlimited informational access on their population and perceived 'enemies' - foreign and domestic. One of these scenarios will eventually play out, at which point this dystopic nonsense can hopefully go the way of government driven eugenics as people realize what this can, and inevitably will, culminate in.

Oh no no, governments will only involuntarily sterilize the [not me] people. Oh no no, governments will only use mountains of personal and private information to exploit [not me] people.
Yep, but as said above that would be "big data" with the need of de-duplicating them and with no additional (reliable) parameters.

Then you will need some AI (or whatever) to remove non-human photos or non-suitable photos (position, lighting, etc.) whilst this method would almost guarantee only "portraits" or "upper torso" pictures of humans.

What I tried to say wasn't that this is the "only" method, but that it is one of the "easy" ones with a high probability of getting "reliable" data.

How is it less work to install macOS than Windows 10? I personally ran a Hackintosh for two years, bought all the right parts according to Tony Mac, and after getting tired of fiddling each time with the upgrade cycle of the OS, I just went full in with Windows 10, and it was dead simple to install and setup, and it's been stable, simple, and reliable.
I produced exactly this kind of chart when engaged in a semi-hostile management take-over, including the wild guesstimates of probabilities.

But then I further did a stability analysis to see which of the probabilities needed to be more accurate, and thus require more careful measurement. That identified critical decisions and pathways, and which of the other party's decisions should be nudged.

Here, though, there's not really a lot to be gained by greater precision, although your point is taken.
I did, but the matches do not look like me.
I think OP's point was that the person gives a vague answer off the top of their head instead of checking the doc to see what the actual concrete type is.
Leaving aside commuting; we'll assume you and friends/partner are fine with only living, working, and socializing where you can easily get around by public transit, walking, bike, Uber now and then and restricting your choices accordingly.

Every half-way senior engineer I know (and I'm not even talking sales, system engineers/solution architects, product managers, and so forth) routinely travel to customer sites or branch locations that require driving under at least some circumstances.

Uber/Lyft have absolutely helped with some edge cases. I was at a work event just a couple weeks ago where my default in the past would have been to rent a car and I didn't because, while the venue was about an hour drive from the airport, I didn't actually need to drive once I go there.

It is absolutely the expectation at most jobs that you can drive if need be.

I'm also a reader, and in my experience devs who don't feel comfortable with reading (most of them) tend to get better information flow through talking, unfortunately they're about as likely to be shy as other devs and sometimes don't get a lot of professional development because of this.

Get in the habit of talking to them about code casually. ("Have you seen the X library", "I implemented another splay tree today, whoah!") I also send juniors youtube links unless they've expressed they don't like video, there's now a bunch of solid technical content there, better than books in terms of being up to date I would say.

A ton of people watch videos sped up 1.75x or 2x, and young people often are in the "classroom" mindset that everything where they are a passive receiver is made of gold and benefit from being explicitly told they can skip parts, watch vids out of order, speed up and then slow down, etc. This may help conserve his time.
All in on "no Brexit", to me, sounds like "going all in" on a round of poker - meaning you're very much for that.
I'm not a Brit and the politics of this are not my concern. However the information dissemination and internet aspect of the story is quite fascinating.

I have no idea what's going on. I tried to ignore it, but my friends who care deeply about it can get quite upset so I've been pulled into several private conversations. Because of that, on several occasions I've looked around the web in an effort to easily understand what's going on.

No luck.

Two things come to mind. First, complexity can be used as a wonderful shield against openness and accountability. You can be as open and accountable as anybody would like, but as long as most people find the situation impenetrable and you do not, it doesn't matter. It's the same thing as not being open at all. Second, I don't see how any reasonable public discussion happens at all in an information environment like this. It's a fail. If they wanted no public discussion, they should have made that choice. This is probably the worst situation a democracy can find itself in: lots of upset people arguing about things which they have no idea the true status of. You might as well watch a puppet show. There's no nuanced conversation possible. It is contrast turned as high as possible.

It's not the decision as much as the uncertainty. I can't help but think the net failed us here -- but I don't know how it could have done better. The betting markets at least will give you an up/down version of the likely outcomes. Oddly enough that might be the best source of information.
What I think they're absolutely and criminally guilty of is to not ground the plane after the first crash.
