For legitimate outbound sales, I might be calling from 617-867-5309, but want my caller ID to always show up as the office main number (perhaps 617-867-5300). Or I might want to show my Google Voice (or Twilio or other) number as my number even if I happen to be returning your call from a specific line or phone.

As for felony life sentence, while I'm sure that's facetious for effect (and I chuckled), if you accept any of the above reasons, it seems you also need to allow for inadvertent misconfiguration. Once we broke up the telephony stranglehold (overall a good thing, I think), we allowed a bunch of federated phone systems to start working together, most of whom are good actors.
I've noticed that certain newspaper-oriented sites (like the Denver post) ask you to subscribe if it detects you're running in incognito mode.

Showing a typing mechanism to be safe is a very hard thing to do. There are a few methodologies I'm familiar with. What most people think about - formal proof - doesn't work for semi-obvious reasons (as you can easily reduce "is this program safe" to the halting problem).

The research I've seen is basically:

- Take a class room of independently selected subjects (read: CS undergrad students).

- Give them the same coding problem in multiple languages or in the same language with or without compile time type checking.

- Measure the number of defects said programs have and hopefully draw a conclusion about the safety of the language.

All the research I've read on the topic has been pretty poor (though maybe I'm just bad at finding it).

Indeed there is no such research for typed Python (although the pluggalbe types research in general is great) but there is also no such research (that I've found) for Idris, ReasonML, Swift, Haskell, Rust or any of the usual "suspects" for "good types".

Please enlighten me :]
Is Python the most popular language now? I'm not trying to argue, I'm trying to see how out-of-the-loop I am nowadays.

What a great project! I love how much attention to detail he put in. Fantastic, this is exactly the kind of thing I love studying and working on myself.

Sidenote, I'm a bit disappointed that people use imgur to showcase their projects, as I don't think it's very good for that. I built https://www.makerfol.io/ for this exact purpose but people seem to still prefer imgur for some reason, and I'm not sure why :/
Your personal website, btw, is really great, and that interviewer missed out. I program mostly Python in scientific contexts, but it's great to have your perspective on some larger questions of programming style and technology.

They have contributions, but not in programming language design. I was specific to point that out.
Why wouldn’t they use something like BGP to route between the satellites? Because the topology is explicitly known ahead of time and so the routing can be more “hard coded?”

An interesting side effect of this network is that latency experienced by any two users, anywhere on the network, should be close to equal.
I'm not sure of it's historical accuracy, or if the author took some liberties with the subject at hand, but one of my favorite works of fiction on the "building of a cathedral" is Ken Follett's "The Pillars of the Earth". If you haven't read it, you may be as surprised by it as I was...
> America has the wealth to provide a safety net, it's not the fault of globalism that it doesn't.

The US has an enormous safety net. What are you referring to? On total net social spending, the US ranks just below France at the very top in the OECD, with 30% of all economic output directed at that. For comparison, Sweden and the UK are at 24%. For strictly public-based social spending, the US is ranked with New Zealand and just below the UK, and ahead of Canada and Australia.

On strictly public social welfare spending as a share of the economy, the US ranks in front of: Canada, Australia, Iceland, Netherlands, Israel, Switzerland, Ireland.

At the rate US public social welfare spending is increasing, it'll surpass the UK and Japan in the coming decade.

Most of the total governmental budget in the US (local, state, federal) goes to its various social programs whether entitlements or traditional welfare state spending. For one increasingly large example, the huge entitlement programs in the US involve very large welfare funds transfers to prop up the social safety nets.

Just the taxpayer funded healthcare systems for free healthcare services (mostly for the poor and disabled) in the US cost $700-$800 billion now when all levels of spending are accounted for.

$7.6 trillion in total government spending. Roughly 3/4 of that is social program spending directed at various safety nets.

The US increased its Federal budget by 9% most recently. That's something like a $330-$350 billion increase in one year, at just the Federal level. The vast majority of that is social safety net spending increases.

While most developed nations are aggressively restraining their welfare states at this point due to cost, the US continues to expand its welfare state (thus the permanent near trillion dollar budget deficits that are looming, of which ~20% is excessive military spending and ~10% is recent tax cuts (some of which resets), the rest, roughly 70%, is to fund social programs).

The myth that the US doesn't have any social safety net really needs to die given the trillions of dollars the US spends every year on it.
I subscribed some 10 years ago and the thing that upset me the most happened when I cancelled. I still had some two or three weeks on the period I had paid for. But the moment I cancelled my access was removed. No prorate. No refund.

I clicked looking forward to a strong analysis of this, as is bound to happen in the coming days since there are tons of invested people ready to analyze the way the show has (at least ostensibly) failed to live up to even its own lore.

Amazfit is the closest player to Pebble's old space. I don't think they have any 3rd party app ecosystem at all, but the baseline experience covers time, notifications, workout tracking, and a couple other things.

Bip and Stratos are the watchier lines, they also have more minimal Fitbit strap-style product that I forget the name of.

EDIT: Here's another new entry https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/04/garmin-revamps-entir...

> Like most Garmin smartwatches, the Forerunner 45 and 45S track all-day activity and sleep, deliver smartphone alerts to your wrist, and are easy on the eyes thanks to an always-on, sunlight-friendly display. Even though the Forerunner 45 watches are the most affordable of the bunch, they still have a heart-rate monitor and built-in GPS, so users can make outdoor runs without the help of a smartphone.

> It can also connect to external sensors like a running dynamics pod and heart-rate chest straps to capture more running data while you train. The Forerunner 245 watches have the same one-week battery life as the Forerunner 45 watches do when in smartwatch mode, but they'll last up to 24 hours in GPS mode or six hours when using GPS and music playback simultaneously.

That looks really promising.
Depends on how you measure most popular. I think I saw a post here saying that the most new questions on SO were for python over js now, which might be a good enough proxy?

I see this as a reflection of the candidates ability to find and listen to experts. I don't expect a candidate to understand how to do tech "right" - I'm in the industry and still get half of it wrong! However, when you're running a multi million dollar campaign you can afford to bring in experts to set this stuff up and audit your practices. In fact, I assume these candidates are already doing this and that if they are still not following some basic best practices it's because they are actively ignoring the experts they brought on to help them. That's what worries me. If they can't find or listen to these people now, what makes me think they'll be able to in office? (Related: "The internet is not a big truck...")

Thank you for naming names. Most people with experiences like this keep everything anonymous, leaving other people to fall into the same trap.
Hopefully, he's only talking about basic style guidelines, and not coding standards. Especially in C, there's practices that should be banned. Good naming conventions are arguably useful as well. I agree that endless arguments about the best way to indent and use brackets are harmful.
I Have a Lot of Data, I Just Don’t Know Where
Python’s type annotation mechanism is somewhere between afterthought and joke. Nobody uses it and nothing is built with it in mind; it can be anywhere from needlessly complicated to utterly impossible for code that interacts with third-party libraries to successfully discover and import class names for type annotations. Making matters worse, you need to use even more extra libraries for the type annotations to actually do anything.

A lot of it, which needs compositing, post-production, encoding, etc. Python is great for pipeline code to script the compiled libraries that do the number crunching.

Some of it is licensed/farmed out to places like DreamWorks however (new Voltron/She-ra), which is mostly a Java/Spring shop, to my knowledge.
The problem with large tech markets is that they control every aspect of a single industry in of themselves, which allows them to define and change the market to suit themselves best. In the shortrun this is good for the user as Facebook can offer instagram, whatsapp, facebook, messenger, etc. for free- a price that competitors cannot beat with all those features at once.

On the other hand, now Facebook has all of our data and the bar to enter the market to compete with facebook also must apply to all the corollary markets- in other words, there's no qay to have equivalent services without paying the high cost Facebook demands (which is massive user data).

This is similar to when an oil company purchases the means to refine and produce the oil. So an ewuivalent separation would be breaking up the highly integratedness of all to benefit the market by increasing competition on every level of Facebook monolith.

Yes, infact, much of the arguments here is the arguments made when one broke up Standard Oil for example. "But how will this benefit the consumer" is one the biggest arguments against the breaking up Standard Oil.
Consistently, I was most frustrated by the demands in my English and Creative Writing courses that there were correct answers to what certain things within stories were meant to symbolize.

And creative writing in general is something that doesn't work well for people who think in more literal ways. It seems like a way for those who don't to torture those who do. I wonder how much sadism is truly involved in the grading process. My guess is... a lot.

It's a Trap! Watch Out for Unexpected S3 Cost When Using AWS Athena
Be sure to read the comments on imgur, made my day :)
I suppose Python is so popular in the ML and data-science spaces now that it makes some sense. I don't know a lot about those spaces, and the little bit I've played with neural networks I've done with Clojure because I'm hipster.

Amazing how much of a pure-functional bubble I live in now. I should probably branch out more.
That's too bad, but I have a hopeful story for you.

I have a few years of high school and college French fortified by a couple months spent living in Lyon with a French family. Other than an hour between CDG and the TGV station, I'd never been to Paris until 2016, which was long after my French studies.

That 2016 trip was disappointing. I'd mentally rehearse the restaurant order while looking at the menu, or check Google Translate for the exact words describing the thing I needed from the store, and I had the same experience as you: a strong feeling I was exceedingly boring to the other person, and please let's switch to the easy path to get this drudgery over with. Speaking French was a big attraction to why I was looking forward to going to France. It was a letdown.

But three years later, in 2019, I found myself back in Paris, and this time I had several successful non-phatic discussions with natives that I'd characterize as enjoyable in any language. What changed?

Strangely enough, the change was learning Mandarin, which I started doing last year. Aside from my being an adult, Mandarin is hard for anyone to learn as a second language, so I never expected to reach conversational fluency in it. And my resulting attitude every time I'm talking to a native Mandarin speaker is "well, fuck it, I'm never going to be good at this, but I have to start somewhere, so let's just try to assemble what I'm thinking out of the 500 words I know, and see what happens." It's a totally different attitude from my well-studied, well-schooled, well-read, but not well-practiced French brain. And while I still concede I'll never be fluent in Mandarin, I'm saying an awful lot more to Mandarin speakers than I would have a single year into my French studies.

This lack of inhibition led into a better experience in France. I didn't bother trying to construct full, stammering sentences in restaurants. I just said the numbers and nouns and gave one-word answers to whatever the server asked -- insisting on switching to English would have actually prolonged our time together. But in circumstances where conversation would have helped pass the time -- cab ride where the driver looks like he's wondering something about us, or standing in line where all of us were clearly confused by the same situation, etc. -- I just went for it, with the same fuck-it attitude, and it worked out. We had our short, meaningful, optional conversations that scratched the "I spoke real French in real France" itch.

In short, yes, unfortunately, the problem really is you (and me). But it's fixable. Stop thinking "I'm about to speak French." Just let it happen.
Site's Ties to Shootings Renew Debate over Internet's Role in Radical Extremists
As someone who has worked on fully remote game dev volunteer projects for nearly 10 years, it's unbelievable how much the cultural inertia of physical presence has prevented companies from making the rational move of eliminating all possible office space in favor of remote work and skype meetings. So much money wasted on rent, security, and upkeep and so much time (and even lives) lost to commuting when there isn't a single compelling reason programmers need to cohabitate a physical office to get their job done.
And assuming they didn't merge their fork back in, the original FreeRTOS codebase doesn't get any of their fixes/improvements either.
Yes these things are subjective though. I don't love having to scroll right to see params.

When did Erlang come out? There clearly was interest in concurrency, otherwise, why make a new programming language (limbo or otherwise) just for the sake of it?

Just because multicore wasn't common doesn't mean that concurrency wasn't important. Event loops have practically always been there on widely used OS's.

We could fix part of the problem (and plenty of other problems besides!) by working on best-of-class open-source FTL (Flash-Translation-Layer) and GC (Garbage Collection) for raw NAND or other solid-state storage. This would essentially enable us to open up the "storage" market to essentially any sort of solid-state memory, irrespective of physical implementation; such that cornering that market by intentionally limiting production of NAND Flash memory alone would likely become infeasible.
When you have an incoming call ringing on a landline, the ring signal is very much out of band - it's 48 volts, with enough current to drive a solenoid to move a mechanical hammer against a physical bell. (You do not want to be electrically in contact with a phone line when ring comes in!)

The caller ID information comes as a frequency-shift-keyed (FSK) message (I think). As you said, it's between the first and second rings. But you can't hear it, not just because it's not a normal audio tone, but also because the phone is still on hook and isn't playing any audio that comes over the line.

That's regular caller ID, which is type 1. Call waiting caller ID is type 2. It's also an FSK message. (That is, I'm sure that it's an FSK message. I think type 1 is also FSK, but I'm less certain of that.) This comes immediately after the call waiting "beep". It's short enough that I don't think your ear can pick it out of the transition from the beep tone to the regular conversation that the beep interrupted.

I'm not sure whether you could get fake caller ID that you send through a CO. The phone line isn't "off hook" yet, so the CO isn't passing audio. (If you say "hello" into the phone while it's ringing, I don't think that audio goes down the destination phone line either.) But that's only how I think it works; I don't know.
True, and there are plenty of ways to make people think that aren't founded on inaccuracy and rhetoric

I was a campaigner against ID cards back then, and this is basically spot on: even back then, the people on the street who supported ID cards mentioned immigration. What happened? The biometric residence permits. ID cards are mandatory if you're a non-EU immigrant. The rest of the "hostile environment" made proof of immigration status mandatory for employment and renting a house. We got all the pieces of a surveillance state except the ID cards - because that's what the public wanted.

All of the Windrush fiasco and other Home Office outrages show that the UK is pretty comfortable with bureaucratic authoritarianism so long as they think it only applies to immigrants.

Teen Suicide Spiked After Debut Of Netflix's '13 Reasons Why,' Study Says
> Not sure I follow... the sync happens because when the user sends an attempted TOTP code to the server, the server calculates a few codes just before/after the current time, and if they match, the server updates its cache of the token's clock drift. Nothing is stored on the client. Why would this not be an option? (It requires the same access as required to send it a code in the first place, no more.)

"The server" here is owned by the site where you're logging into, not by Protectimus, so you can't make it do those things. They found a way to fix the clock issue from the end they can affect.

Plus you need some input anyway, since the TOTP protocol requires a shared secret, and for some reason it became a standard that the server is the one providing it on setup.

I would assume that somewhere on the bottom line there is an analysis of what the drug itself is doing. For instance, does the drug cure something or does it treat the symptoms of something? I imagine most of former are thrown out right off the bat. What we need is a system for testing, developing and selling medications that is less effected by the human condition. Perhaps, we should close the private sector and hand this off to the government or at least breakup the process by allowing the private sector to sell without the burden of testing and development? Perhaps, we as taxpayers, should be handling the burden of cost for testing and development?
