Upgrades are basically decided by the user by updating their cmake config. It can check a specific page on the server and compare with a page in the repo to see if an update is necessary. The central server doesn't have to do anything, it's just dumb file hosting.

I've got nothing against additional language support, though having to install java to use it is a bit painful. I'll take a look at it; I appreciate the recommendation.

You originally commented that cmake was awkward and required "gluing together". I'll agree that the syntax is a little alien to those of us with a background in c-like syntax, but it's never seemed that clunky. Any reason why?
For Romans, military success was an absolute prerequisite for a political career.

Without military success, one could become Questor or (if lucky) Praetor, but no way he could become Console. He had to demonstrate somehow his military value on the battlefield before.

Some exceptions were made from times to times (e.g. Cicero) but they were usually followed up by the mob.
I've heard this as well. I have blue eyes and extreme sensitivity to light, much moreso than my partner w/ brown eyes. I can't be outside without sunglasses for instance, and I've noticed polarized lens's are far more effective at reducing my pain point than normal tinted glasses. I also can't just flick on the lights in the morning when I wake up, I have to gradually introduce my eyes to light.

Cloudflare Launches a New VPN Service for iOS Called Wrap
Nasa Satellite Reveals How Much Saharan Dust Feeds Amazon’s Plants (2015)
Care to share what types of tools do this? I'm genuinely interested. I haven't come across a log management tool that uses AI to detect abnormal conditions based on the log message contents like the OP describes. I stick to Papertrail for the most part though so I'm likely out of the loop.
Will it be possible to whitelist network devices and/or SSIDs?

Use case: I want to be able to say, "only use VPN when on WiFi networks (not cellular), and if so, only activate on public WiFi networks (not my home WiFi).
Starsky Robotics (YC S16) | Sr Software Engineer, ML Validation, SWE - Infra, Controls Engineer, Behavior Planning Engineer | San Francisco, CA | Onsite, INTERNS, VISA | Full-time

Come build self driving trucks! Starsky Robotics is a fantastic place to work, we're solving hard problems across the board and need help. We have positions open for all sides of the robotics stack, and are specifically looking for more Software eng. maturity for the platform and infrastructure teams. I personally work on the Infra side and am looking for extra hands on our data, simulator, and fleet management infrastructure.

We recently opened ~5 new Software positions across the Truck systems.

Blurb:

We're working to make trucks autonomous on the highway and remote controlled by experienced remote drivers for the first and last mile. Our self driving trucks will make roads safer while giving drivers meaningful work close to their homes and families.

We currently run our trucks autonomously on the highway, with freight. We are looking for awesome engineers who are comfortable working on a scrappy, driven engineering team.

We use Python, C++, and lots of bash scripting. We are a group of PhDs, masters, bachelors, college dropouts, and high school interns all working together. No matter your experience, we're looking for intelligent folks who have a history of diving excitedly into new fields. We can sponsor visas. All positions non-remote unless otherwise specified.

Apply online, every application is read: https://jobs.lever.co/starskyrobotics/ or email me (daniel + @<company_name>.com) with any questions, but do not send me your resume (please apply instead).
Incidentally, user yongdaek also already put this Google Site link in a comment on that post (it's like the third one down) haha
I suggest you should read up on the far more recent case of Fred Hampton and COINTELPRO regarding US "protection of dissent". American institutions protect the status quo and allow "safe" dissent (meaning bounded (e.g. NY Times) or ineffective (tiny groups / grandpa screaming) dissent). However, free speech is treated more seriously here than most other places and times in history, that is true and good.

That said, what is being done to the Uyghur people in China is vile and is contradictory to established human rights. It is completely appropriate to take China to task at the UN. However, as US citizens, it is difficult for us to have a strong moral voice given the wars, assassinations, coups, and destructive sanctions we have initiated along with our history of indigenous genocide, colonialism, and slavery that we have still not fully reckoned with. Even now we are implementing a slightly different version of the Japanese internment camps for the most vulnerable people in our society, undocumented immigrants, to distract from the economic depredations of the ruling class.

If we want to be a more effective and just nation, we have a lot of work to do at home.

A lot of the cipher vulnerabilities absolutely take a probe. In fact, multiple probes.

The client sends a list of acceptable cipher suites to the server. The server then selects one that is also agrees with (this can be based on many factors, strongest first, quickest first, a custom priority, etc). Because of this, if you send, say 40 ciphers, the server will only respond with one. To get an accurate list of cipher suites supported, you must send each one individually to truly test whether the server does support a particular cipher suite or not.

Not to mention, if a server is sending out its 'patch level' to a client machine on request, that in itself is a vulnerability.

The government does use such a tool - or at least something similar - https://pulse.cio.gov/ is just one example of a public repository of some of those results.
I'm not seeing any advocacy of memorization? The only thing you might have to memorize, out of what parent listed, is the algorithms for doing written out arithmetic; and that too is in fact an exercise in mathematical thinking. After all, there's a reason we teach these algorithms, as opposed to just telling kids that they can punch numbers into a calculator.
I would use another language for distributing a script (probably) python. Awk and sed I use more on a one-off basis although I do have a list of ones I use frequently.
Look at the big transformer, I was thinking "audio", and sure enough, it's an acoustic coupled modem, as in "set the phone on the modem"

I've seen a lot of companies and teams with hair-raising practices, but most of them still manage some basic business-logic safeguards like "don't buy for more than $X" or "if we don't sell anything for 10 minutes, shut it all down and sound the alarms". Generally they can't do worse than "making no money" or maybe "paying full expenses without making any profits".

The link here excerpts the full filing, but the real meat wasn't included:

> 16... Because the cumulative quantity function had been moved, this server continuously sent child orders, in rapid sequence, for each incoming parent order without regard to the number of share executions Knight had already received from trading centers...
17. The consequences of the failures were substantial. For the 212 incoming parent orders that were processed by the defective Power Peg code, SMARS sent millions of child orders, resulting in 4 million executions in 154 stocks for more than 397 million shares in approximately 45 minutes. Knight inadvertently assumed an approximately $3.5 billion net long position in 80 stocks and an approximately $3.15 billion net short position in 74 stocks. Ultimately, Knight realized a $460 million loss on these positions.

Knight did $1.4 billion in revenue per year, but there was no safeguard against adopting $7 billion worth of positions in 45 minutes. The end result was that they lost 4 years of profits in under an hour. That's crazy, and not at all standard.

Nerds. Who think they're smarter than everyone else. It's like Hacker News. The tone really fits the audience well.
Honestly though, you have to climb the ranks somehow. For someone, that delegation is their "break" into the work they want to do.
You're probably going to define those validations in different ways. The frontend gets data from the UI one field at the time, the back end gets them from a JSON all together. Then they react in different ways.
Swift's text was satire.

Also: cannibalism, rape, murder etc are illegal in pretty much every territory. What is your point?

Also also: a chicken thrown to the shredder is not eaten, yes.

Can you please explain what you mean without colorful metaphors and attempts at humour? I enjoy those as the next person but they don't help me understand what you mean. If I make an assumption about what you mean and I reply to the assumption in the same way, with metaphors and similes, and you make an assumptiona bout what that meant and reply accordingly, we'll lose the plot very, very quickly.
Not Fortnite players, apparently.
This is my exact issue with take-home tasks: I can get to an onsite or a rejection with most other companies after a 15 minute recruiter call and a 45-60 minute technical phone screen. So, why do I want to do a 2+ hour homework assignment? Most of the time, there simply is no compelling reason to do so.
> I know this used to be common, but recently? Curious how often this is still the case.

Several times within the last year for me. Not all companies have big tech departments with knowledgable developers advocating modern best practices. Some big internal systems can start out from someone internal applying some basic self-taught skills for example.

To be fair, the jump to using Git (and especially dealing with Git merge conflicts) is scary. It can be a hard sell to get people to move from a system they already completely understand and have used successfully for years, even if their system looks like ancient history to us.

Literally heard "...but my IDE already automatically uploads to FTP on save, I'm usually the only usually one editing it and I already know what I changed" last week.
Compared to the other sciences, it seems to me that management science, as an entire discipline, is a nearly complete failure. This is a field where startup experiments by complete newbies lead the conversation against a network of business schools and long-standing organizations. There seems to be no consensus whatsoever on the best way to manage people. It’s not even clear, to me at least, that modern management practices at many large corporations are provably better than some kind of naive baseline like a pure democracy or pure dictatorship. Expert texts are nothing more than pontification and hand-picked anecdotes. Does anybody really know what works?
There are many tasks that are both relatively mindless and important.

Spinning Water Droplets That Seemingly Defy Physics
I enjoyed math. I loved it.

What I hated was doing 50 homework problems for every type of whatever it was we were learning that day. Even if the answers to have odd-numbered ones were in the back of the book.

Once an equation or soomething 'clicked', I got it. There was no point of doing 50 of them, each slightly different than the last.
If you don't trust them with a binary, you shouldn't trust them just because they posted source code somewhere. If they don't have the bandwidth to manage this as an open source project this is the right call.
Cooklist | Backend Django / Data Engineer | Dallas, TX / Remote

Cooklist allows you to order groceries by choosing recipes you want to cook and shows you recipes you can cook with the groceries you buy.

Think Expedia for aggregating all the grocery retailers into one interface and Mint.com for importing all your retail purchase data into a digital pantry.

We just finished the TechStars Retail Program and announced a partnership with Target. We're a small team of experienced startup founders and engineers and are looking for a backend engineer and data engineer to join our team.

Cooklist can connect directly to 77 grocery chains like Walmart, Safeway, Kroger etc. and automatically download every purchase a user makes in store and online. It uses NLP to match each product purchased to recipe ingredients. Over 1,000,000 products are matched to 1,000,000 recipes.
How does Nfhttp compare with POCO?

You seem to mix up binary with bimodal. Sex is indeed not binary, as illustrated by the many cases of "it's complicated". You can try to define a strong line, but the resulting rule will be quite arbitrary and mostly be based on your feelings. Accepting the distribution to be bimodal obviously still allows most of us to easily be categorized as either male or female. Same for gender roles, by the way, though with a bigger focus on behavior than biology.
If someone is bullish on the rideshare market then why not invest in both?
I do this twice a day at work, if weather is nice i will take a 10 min walk to reset myself. I like to close out all my fuckin tabs, take stock of WTF happened in the first hours of work, then refocus path. A 10 min walk helps refresh things. Typically go out after about 1.5 to 2 hours of time at the desk.
The issue here is the eggs that are fertilized, to create the laying hens. The males are a waste product, and are discarded.

As I understand it, you can short an IPO on day 1, but it probably won't work out very well for you, because the underwriting banks have agreed to buy shares at a specific price if the price falls. So if you try and short it you are getting into a game of 'who has more money' with a bunch of investment banks, which you will rarely win.
That's a good point; you're right that it's helpful to be able to interface with such a ubiquitous program natively in a language of choice. I did see a mention on the page of deploying as a crate and using in another program; that seems very convenient.

Not a complaint; more a question as to why there's a specific move around rust. I appreciate the reply; that's exactly the kind of response I was looking for.

It is one of the few parts of equity trading that is pretty nearly exactly zero-sum. Insiders with knowledge of the over-priced IPO externalizing the impending price correction onto external investors who buy the hype.

Existing shareholders know there is no evidence from the existing business to indicate a future cash flow that could net-present-value justify the IPO price, so that “believers” in future Lyft growth are just factually wrong, pending some currently unknowable drastic change to operating practices to change profitability.

Smarkets | Full Time | ONSITE (London, UK; also Downtown LA, California)

We're a modern betting exchange, going technology first to enable proper price competition in a field of fat commissions. Join a small, agile, and fast-growing team, in our beautiful office in St. Katharine Docks. If our US location tickles your fancy, you get to help setting up a brand new office too.

Smarkets develops a reliable, low-latency, highly concurrent betting exchange based on trading exchange designs. We're also building a fast, modern web interface to allow for a smoother experience. Servicing our users is top priority.

The Smarkets platform is written predominantly in Python, Erlang (being replaced with C++) and Javascript for React, relying heavily on asynchronous programming techniques. The tech stack sports Kafka, Postgres and increasingly Kubernetes. We use REST where we can. Life at Smarkets circles around people, version control, configuration management and automation. We can - and do - deploy to production several times a day.

Our entire production is in AWS. In fact, Smarkets was the first gambling operator under the Maltese regulator to get permission to run everything in the cloud. We push the envelope where needed and educate auditors when necessary.

We are looking for engineering talent in the following roles:

* [Senior] Front-end Engineer - React; London & LA
* Data Engineer; London
* Infrastructure Engineer; London
* Senior Security Engineer; London
* Quantitative Developer; London
* Low-Latency C++ Engineer; London
* Generalist Software Engineer; London & LA
* [Senior] Mobile Developer; LA

If you like the idea of flat structure and practical engineering approach, see our jobs at https://smarkets.com/careers .
This was true for me. I absolutely hated math in middle and high school. I never studied for it and got mediocre grades. I had a few teachers who really had no enthusiasm or drive to make it interesting. Fortunately, I started taking some community college classes my last couple of years, where I really fell in love with linear algebra. I wound up being a math major in undergrad and a geophysics PhD.
> He was a criminal? What crime did he commit, and when was he convicted?

An officer can have a number of reasons to stops someone, and probable cause or observation of the crime are both reasons.

There is also difference between having committed a criminal act and being convicted for it.
There are bindings to git in Rust (https://github.com/rust-lang/git2-rs ) - I've used it in a couple of my projects (https://github.com/samsieber/subgit-sync for example).

That said, even when using those bindings, I've had to drop down to wrapping the porcelain sometimes. I'd love to have a native rust git implementation. It'd be easier to hack on, and to abuse for the type of git interactions I've written.

And it'd be one less external dependency to worry about when cross-compiling. I love how easy it is to install things from source in Rust - and it's pretty easy to add flag to make the program use your CPU's special instruction set to make it even faster.
That's clever. We haven't set the final pricing for Warp+ yet, so it's not too late.
