> I mean... does any startup when compared to FAANG?

Yes, in my experience. Unless, as you mentioned, you count stock options or similar (which I don't).
My 2015 S 70D is much better at recognizing speed limits than your Mercedes. Gets it wrong rarely and in fact notices signs that I miss. There is one parallel road where it persistently incorrectly recognizes the speed limit as belong to the road I am on bt that's just one out of many of thousands of km of road that I have driven in the car over the last 18 months.
You might have missed the point.
People are not a hive mind, some developers may ignore bugs, others may complain about end user oriented FOSS acceptance and perhaps some do both, but chances are these two groups are separate (and in larger projects you may even have people under more than one of these groups).

Also unless someone has explicitly expressed they are taking such a responsibility you describe, such a responsibility only exists in some people's minds. A lot of programmers want to share free stuff they made and stop there.
Word to the wise: they have the mouse sensitivity set very low and there's no option for it, but you can open the JS console and twiddle "noa.cameraControls.rotationScale".

You can host the java version of the server on any machine.

You can also just expose any client's game instance to your local LAN - that's all I do when playing with my grandkids.

There are ways of doing multiplayer on your local LAN with a single account as well by simply editing your name in a single config file per machine. Google is your friend there. :)
It matters to the same degree (and for the same reasons) as any other marketing pitch matters.
And AP1 does that perfectly.
We are using a pre-commit hook but I also have an on-save hook in my editor. Further, we also have a CI job that runs `black --check` which returns 1 (failing the build) if the files weren't completely formatted with black. In Go, the convention is that everyone's editor runs gofmt on change, and because the convention is so strong, that's usually enough (although many larger projects also have a CI job similar to the one described above).

Having used both extensively, my biggest grievances (in order) are that there aren't more editors that with good on-save support, that black is relatively slow (compared to gofmt), and that black isn't more opinionated and less configurable.
If I get a Twilio number and register it as my 2FA in some app, how is a hacker going to abuse that because the origin of SMS messages is a shortcode?
How's that an improvement over using 'Dedicated Instances' or the 'Bare Metal' offerings which exist with cloud providers, where you're not colocated with other entities but still enjoy all the benefits of how the infrastructure is managed, flexibility in upscale/downscale (instead of acquiring capital assets which depreciate over 36-48 months).
Are there any left? Will/should this run into anti-trust concerns?
Do you have any source that lay out his ideas ?
Even more accurately, only the Cortex-A75 was vulnerable to Meltdown. It wasn’t pervasive to their architectural designs the way it was to Intel.
All these problems are very easy to solve. Suse and Red Hat could stop trying to have it both ways: either you get the flexibility of a fork, or you get the brand recognition of the upstream project. But you want both - the upstream brand to get users, and the downstream flexibility so that you can “differentiate” and sell support.

This problem is entirely created by distributions and their “packagers know best” philosophy.

You say downstream patching is necessary. Go ahead and strip the upstream trademark from every package which you patch downstream, replace it with new Suse-specific trademarks, and let’s see what users prefer!
When JavaScript is served to a browser, it is distributed and thus anything that uses a GPLed JavaScript library must be GPL too.
It makes zero sense to value Waymo at $250b and not Tesla at more than that. Wow.

One of the (many) things that pleased me about deleting my LinkedIn account was that I no longer routinely heard from the likes of Google/Amazon/Facebook.
I set up a machine in the living room, and ran a script that would rip a disc as soon as it was inserted, then eject it.

Whenever I passed through, I would swap discs. If I had some free time, I sat in front of it and read while swapping discs.

It took a few months, but it was entirely doable.
From personal experience (Scotland, Ireland), both Lidl and Aldi do tend to be in places where you kinda do need a car to shop there. They are pretty convenient compared to larger stores such as Tesco or ASDA (Walmart's UK brand) where shopping is more of an "expedition".
I don't know what circumstances you live under where that's the case. Most people don't limit to one, but also don't drink every day. In much of the US 5-8 beers, or similar mixed drinks is a totally normal, not even a heavy drinking night. This is repeated 2-5 nights a week, though some nights might be more like 1-3 drinks. I'm talking about standard alcohol units here.
America’s educational system is an ‘aristocracy posing as a meritocracy’
I could finally play Crysis!
IMO--

In so many ways, America needs to start understanding that solutions to these problems have been explored and, just possibly, greater progress achieved in other countries... progress can be gleaned by studying outcomes from those countries.

It's easy to dismiss suggestions as having "its own set of risks and downsides", but in critical areas, America is significantly underperforming other first world countries and we need to get past the Not Invented Here syndrome.
For typical single-based pop/top-40 that could be true.

But for the long tail of most album-oriented music (including the fairly obscure stuff I listen to), its the producer and musician(s) working together to create a coherent artistic work.

Obviously that doesn't always result in an album of consistently great songs, but in my experience as as an occasional musician, recording engineer, and producer, there's always more material than will fit on the album. Part of the creative process is to build that into a form that best expresses the concept of the work as a whole. That usually involves selection & curation, not adding extra filling. My opinion, of course.
The orange seems to be an urban legend, there are several Youtube videos showing it not working. Perhaps it used to. tesla have also recently update the software so that it requires more frequent applications of turning force. For a while after that the car kept disabling Autosteer because kit thought I wasn't attentive enough.
Hi guys! We've implemented this product with minimal features in order to get some feedback. Please be nice! :)
I agree. Also, there is no policy ever that will make admission to Harvard completely equitable, so as long as you hold up Harvard as the example, it justifies any intervention you want to try. Because Harvard.
Also, every one of the metrics he cites there are of dubious value in terms of real-world meaning.
This has been going on forever. I think it explains why a Jeff Koonz just sold for ~$91M. It's not that the sculpture is worth that much, per se, it's more of a store of value.

Famous artist Gerhard Richter said that modern art prices have nothing to do with the art's value.
Brushable Histogram
We are doing perf testing of the AMD versions of HP/Dell servers. We may tech refresh about 40k servers with epyc-2 if performance is better than Intel. It's about time for some new servers anyway.
I think most people agree with a big chunk of that.

The question is, does the path to full autonomy necessarily lie through partial autonomy? And related to that - is partial autonomy actually more dangerous than no autonomy at all?

Personally I think that full autonomy might be easier to hit from scratch on prepared roads, with sensors built into the environment, and the roads/lanes not shared with pedestrians/animals/animals driving cars.

I would consider making the equivalent of e.g. the London low emissions zone into an autonomous only zone, with the roads, environment and static cameras providing assistance to the cars, possibly centrally guided, and extending it out from there.

> Americans don't want these jobs at the below-market wages they pay. The wages would be higher if not for the supply being inflated by laborers willing to work for below minimum wage.

I agree with your overall point, that more people would be willing to work those jobs if the wages were higher. But your phrasing reveals the paradox intrinsic in this issue. If undocumented labourers are willing for work for under the minimum wage, then that is in fact, the "market wage", i.e. the intersection of the minimum the labourer would accept and the maximum the employer would pay.

"Minimum wage" is set by the local or state government and it's pretty much only Republicans who fight to put downward pressure on it. So to depend on that same party to present federal policy that focuses on degrees rather than family members, ignores the economic reality that will keep people coming in to take sub-minimum wage jobs.
Masculinity as Ideology: John F. Kennedy and Domestic Politics of Foreign Policy
I currently work in the DNA analysis industry. We have some pretty massive data sets and computational challenges. We use C++ for the heavy lifting. There's no way we'd be able to valgrind anything but toy input (valgrind's performance cost is prohibitive) -- and there's so many different possible inputs and code paths that it'd be effectively impossible to automatically generate all possible toy inputs. So we use sanitizers, as many as we can. They're a game changer in correctness validation.

I'd love for fuzzing to be a thing, but even that seems impractical on a large scale (please prove me wrong!) since it's a lot more work than just setting a compile target in cmake and ensuring that sanitizer flags are set for that compile target.
Do you know what lawyers generally charge per hour? For clarification, this question is intended to be rhetorical.
This reminds me of how I always associated South Indian food with vegetarian food growing up in Delhi, where the majority of South Indian restaurants are run by Brahmins. (As I now know) fish and meat are essential to southern cuisines, but my less adventurous or less informed friends still persist in that misconception to some extent.
What indication, given the current healthcare environment, makes you believe that any health insurance company is ever going to prioritize people and their health over profits?

It's easy to say "it's too hard, and the government will futz it up," but "the free market" produces predatory companies pursuing profit.
I'm not sure how exactly they can accurately measure it.

An appropriately completed "hacktivist" hack might not even be an obvious case of hacking? Maybe just a "leak" provided to someone in the media?

I'd argue that a hacking entity pushing it's identity is both an extra security risk / risk for going off track.

The focus is a lot on Anonymous, and bit like Wikileaks, I'm not sure Anonymous ever "was" what some technology enthusiasts and news folks really wanted it to be. There's plenty of fiction out there that folks enjoy about the super cool hacker who is out to fight the powers that be and change the world, but like most things reality does not cooperate.

The article does seem to touch on what happened in terms of public opinion:

>But nothing has led to the group's demise more than the inefficiency of most of its attacks. Defacing websites and launching DDoS attacks rarely gets anything done.

>Neither does stealing data from websites that are completely unrelated to a specific topic. In many cases, Anonymous hackers ended up dumping personal user information into the public domain and hurting innocent people for ridiculous causes, attracting both scorn and ridicule.

>This, in turn, has led to increased attention from law enforcement agencies, which cracked down on both members of the bigger Anonymous and LulzSec groups, but also the smaller ones.
would you elaborate on the political reasons?
It's only that simple if it's all written by the same person.

A maintainer can't just re-license the whole project unless all other authors agree (or already agreed to that e.g. by accepting some contributor agreement).

Or did you mean a price high enough to just ignore the existing license?
It’s also bad news for people that have stunt doubles or thought cosmetic surgery would keep them free.
I immigrated to the US from India to flee exactly this slow progressing nightmare. Beyond stunned to see it happening here!
Accelerating, Monetizing and Distributing AR
Is there anything like this for ruby? Would love using it as a plugin for sublimetext, atom or visual studio.
In England you have an assessment with an AMHP (who is there to protect the rights of the patient) and two doctors. One is a specialist MH doctor with training on the law, the other knows the patient. They have to agree that the patient poses a serious risk of harm to themselves or other people, and that they must be detained in hospital for assessment or treatment. The AMHP asks the patient's nearest relative if they object to the section -- if they do object it becomes harder to detain someone.

You then provide free legal advice, and access to mental health act tribunals where people can challenge their detention.

You have independent regulators who provide some oversight, the rpess can report on it all, and of course the courts provide a final backstop.

There are problems with this, but it's pretty good.

We have short detentions for assessment. We have longer detentions for treatment. We have police powers to take someone from a public place to a place of safety for assessment. There's another police power where the police can take someone from their home to a place of safety for assessment, but only if they have a valid warrant.
I don't think any experts (including the FSF who wrote the license) believe this to be true. That's why the AGPL exists.
CI runs a linter and fails the build if the output is non-empty. PRs can't be merged unless the build passes on the branch.
Honestly, that seems like splitting hairs to me.

Haven't read your book so I can't comment on the execution but from a bit of a look at your site it definitely seems very interesting. Topic wise you're killing it.

Bookmarked to have a read over the weekend.
you should upload them somewhere for posterity
It matters in terms of internal opportunities to advance. Say your one of the first data science or product people in a fast growing company, that's a lot of potential opportunity for someone ambitious and self driven.

It also matters in terms of how good will this look on my CV/the story I can tell later. I joined a now well established and fast growing tech company as employee no 267, we're now at ~1200. That looks great on my CV or in an interview where if I talk about scaling issues (both technical and cultural) they'll likely believe me.
My theory/rule is that drinking 3-4+ in one session is what causes liver damage, and your body is otherwise able to recover from 1-2 drinks (and also not build tolerance).

I have no data for this however it is consistent with my preference for moderation.

What you described sounds like a lot, and it doesn’t sound like it allows for recovery.
Interesting note indeed. I remember there being a different Minecraft Classic mode from somewhere around 2009-10 that just ran on Java and you could play it through a browser (Java applet I guess) or download a Java client. The server was in Java too, of course. So perhaps they decided to rewrite it in JS?

I used to be an admin on one server and split my time between building stuff and banning griefers/undoing the griefing on the main worlds to make everything pretty again. Great memories.
> Democrats can add a dreamer compromise and then pass it and see what happens

Why would they do that? As it is the proposal is a gift to Democrats, exactly what they ought to want to run against: a Republican flip-flop from opposing immigrants taking American jobs to wanting only immigrants who will take good jobs away from Americans.

At best, endorsing it would deepen the split between the neoliberal centrist wing of the Democratic Party and the progressive populist wing, but even the neoliberal centrist wing, which probably likes the idea of more focus on immigrants who can depress wages for good jobs, probably doesn't like it coming at the expense of family unification (they’d prefer to see it on top.)

> White House has signaled many times they are willing to do something for the dreamers in exchange for something.

Only for a very narrow definition of “something”; they've flat out expressly stated (not merely signalled) that they are unwilling to do so except in exchange for The Wall.
Yup, I also tried to use the debugging tools in the new FF Dev Edition with a larger React codebase and it's a bit buggy for sure.
Maybe in the more tourist-y areas. AFAIK Goa state is 70% Hindu.

"Les chefs des drapeaux rouges et les chefs des chemises noires ne vont qu'au pas cinglant de leurs bottes guerrières, le torse pris dans un corset de fer à l'épreuve de l'amour et des balles. Ils vont, tragiques et le flingue sur le cœur. Ils vont, métalliques et la peur au ventre, vers les palais blindés où s'ordonnent leurs lois de glace. Ils marchent droits sous leurs casquettes, leurs yeux durs sous verre fumé, cernés de vingt gorilles pare-chocs qui surveillent les toits pour repérer la mort. Mais la mort n'est pas pour les chefs des drapeaux rouges ni pour les chefs des chemises noires. La mort n'est pas aux fenêtres des rideaux de fer. Elle a trop peur.

La mort est sur Stockholm. Elle signe, d'un trait rouge sur la neige blanche, son aveu d'impuissance à tuer la liberté des hommes qui vont au cinéma, tout seuls, bras dessus, bras dessous, avec la femme qu'ils aiment jusqu'à ce que mort s'ensuive."

Vote for what? Here in San Francisco we just voted to raise hundreds of millions of dollars in additional funds for homeless and related services. Most of this will be funneled to over 40 NGOs/non-profits by our city officials, the same 40+ organizations that have ineffectively applied nearly $500m a year for the past decade. My hope is that some of this money TRICKLES DOWN, but my hope for change is pretty much gone. Simply raising/spending the money gives incumbent politicians plausible deniability that they are "fixing the problem" even though they aren't. It's an homeless-industrial-complex at this point where major players are motivated to sustain it because it gets them paid well.

We could vote to build more housing. Oh wait, SB50 just got rejected by the appropriations committee - which is full of non-elected government officials.

I know, we could completely re-elect all of our local government officials to shake everything up, oh wait that's the promise of our last N mayors who haven't done anything.

I'm disgruntled, if any of these points are incorrect please let me know - it's very frustrating and I feel helpless as a voter (in SF).
I want to see a gameplay video. the occlusion effect in AR doesn't seem to be easy to implement. I previously saw a startup doing it using a detailed 3d scan of a city.
Something else that is sometimes forgotten - LDV's notebooks were for his personal use; none (that I recall) were ever published during his lifetime, and then they were "lost" (squirreled away by others would be a better term - ie, "lost" as in "stuffed in an attic in the back corner and forgotten about until passed - yet again - after the owner died") for a long period before being rediscovered and finally published much later - more for curiosity sake than for any knowledge contained in them, as most of it was out of date and/or rediscovered by then.

I doubt that he would have cared, either; his interest in bettering his knowledge and more were for his own sake and nobody else's. Many of the things he noted down and learned, then expanded upon, were actually well-known concepts and such that just hadn't been "written down", or if they had, they were generally done in a far inferior fashion.

Ultimately, though, they were for his own study, and maybe for the few others he (possibly) showed them to (students and/or people he asked questions of would be my guess) - to convey ideas very clearly, as if the actual device or object in question were in front of him or another. Most of the prior attempts at conveying such information could be termed more as "schematic" than as representative of actual form. Some weren't even that clear.

As others have noted, I wouldn't bother with trying to become an expert in everything today - that's a near impossibility. Rather, focus on bettering your knowledge about a wide variety of subjects that interest you. Learn how to apply knowledge from one area to solve problems in another domain. Learn how to integrate knowledge across domains to also solve problems, or come up with creative solutions or further ideas in another domain. In short, treat learning and creativity more like a child; play with it, and enjoy it.

That's a large part of what it means to be a "Renaissance Man"; to me, it doesn't have anything to do with being an expert in any number of particular fields, or even one field. Rather, to me it means having a broad knowledge base, and finding joy in applying that to learn in other areas and solving problems new to me using that - and, when I can or when asked - passing on what I have learned.
That's fair. I absolutely did not assume that person was acting in good faith. I would change it if I could.
In other words, the most rational strategy is to become evil.
Scala was not on my radar in 2012; take that for whatever it's worth to you.

You should really count them. They're basically cash after you vest with a public company. Startups have a very low chance of that stock becoming worth anything even after it vests.

Comparing faang compensation at $300k tc vs $180k salary plus Monopoly money... Faang wins often enough since you never get enough stock in startups for it to be really worth it. (Short of being a founder)
I write my books in markdown and use pandoc to generate PDF and EPUB.
Neat. I've been using an autopep8 pre-commit hook for a while, even though I kinda hate it (but nobody complains about noncompliant code anymore). I'll have to give this one a shot
I can second this. Spotify has really helped me discover artists and bands I enjoy.

Years ago, I would have spent a non-zero amount of time linking through friends on Last.FM / Audioscrobbler. While this can be enjoyable, having it done by an algorithm is perfectly fine for me and I'm willing to pay for it.

That may be true, but I think the poster didn't frame their actual question charitably enough, causing the phatic expression prefacing the question to be rendered completely useless.

IMHO, it was quite confrontational if you mentally leave it out: "... under what moral framework do you find it reasonable to bring more than 10 children into this world?"
