Cuphead Will Be Playable in Tesla Model 3, Model S, and Model X Cars
The majority of Android's value to Google is indirect - by having people view their ads through their platforms and the developer mindshare that comes with the platform. It's exactly the same strategy as Chrome. It is very telling how difficult it must be for developers on the Play Store though.

Back then they didn't sell hardware which is where most iPhone revenue comes from.
This Bloomberg title is unreadable English.
I think the rule about not editorializing needs an exception so that someone can point out an important or interesting fact using an article whose original title is too generic.

Another example would be "Press release from XYZ". If it talks about XYZ reaching some major breakthrough, the title should be allowed to reflect that. It's a waste of everyone's time to post the article titled "Press release".

And arguably this situation should fall under such an exception.
Oh, I see. I interpreted "context" as current working directory. I took a look at your .bashrc but I couldn't detemine any sort of partitioned history. Are you saying that you have something like a virtual environment (as in Python) and the bash command history is separated according to the environment?
What if we're not talking about strippers or porn actresses. What if we're talking about some random person who let a partner take photos/videos of them, in confidence and in private?

It's important to notice parallels though. For instance, I have no good, novel startup ideas now, just like in 2003, 2008, and 2011. Oh wait, that's been true every year :(

They're two attempts to measure the same thing, but with different results. Heat index is measured assuming a human walking at 3mph in the shade and attempts to show how hot the air feels when you take into account the humidity (and associated lack of cooling from perspiration).

Wet-bulb is the measurement of the lowest possible temperature a human body can achieve under current ambient temperatures and humidity (taking into account current wind speed). Basically the air temperature minus the ability to cool yourself by sweating given the current wind speed.

They're both designed to show how hot the air feels to your body rather than just air temperature, just with different calculations and assumptions.
> Clearly you want to talk more than you want to program.

And clearly you want to insult me, to the point where you've basically created an account on this website just to post what you've been posting. This isn't the first unnecessary swipe you've levied either. But... insults are fine as long as I'm getting useful information out of you.

Anyway, the insult to information ratio is off whack now. I guess its time for the discussion to die. I'm not here to argue dude, just discuss, but you keep wanting to turn this into an argument for some reason.

> The major issues with their hiring process have been known for a long time

Does Google have a major issue with their hiring process? They seem to be able to hire the talented people they need. I guess it's an issue for the individuals that get rejected, but not for Google, who seems to get as many people as they want.

Playing with any water system requires permission from the water management district in your local area, or the health department, or both. Plans would need to be drawn and stamped by a civil engineer, inspected and approved and then final inspected after construction in order to be put to use.

Visas and statuses are different things. Visa is essentially an approval of an application for a status. You get it from a US consulate. There are no US consulates on the US soil.

Your status is granted (or denied) by a border agent, based on your visa, when you cross into the country. Changing one can be done on the US soil and the process does not require a visa. But if you want a visa stamp for a new status then you have to visit a US consulate and that requires leaving the US.
Honestly I'd rather use goto than have fallthrough by default in C. Or even better, a Fallthrough keyword as in GO.
You're assuming the US government cares if a non-American thinks it has the moral high ground. I would be shocked if any decision maker ever considered that before making a decision.
The author mentions solar in a later post:

> Another restriction is that there is no power at this place. Bringing power here would require a 350 meter long transmission line through dense forest, or else installing a solar panel, battery and regulator. Due to the low head available between the intake dam and the forebay, a picohydro system to provide some power is hardly feasible. Solar power is quite restricted too, because the place is in a deep valley and gets only about 3 hours of sun a day. Furthermore, in winter there is often no sunny day for a full month! So panels would have to be dimensioned to run on diffuse light from the clouds, and that needs big panels to produce only a little bit of power.
I am currently wondering what the US reaction will be to the UK, should we refuse to fold to their current demands regarding not only Huawei, but also the demands to change our laws in order to create a more US friendly regulatory environment.
When I interviewed at Google I knew all the algorithms, and when I got rejected they said I should contribute to more open source projects to raise my profile instead.
Jacob Wobbrock, who created EdgeWrite, also published on gesture recognition with the $1 Unistroke Recognizer [1], which started the $ family of recognizers. If you think there's some sort of gesture-based writing scheme that would do better, you can use the gesture recognizer and focus directly on how to design your gestures instead of having to implement recognition yourself.

This isnt the case, I work in quantitative finance in NYC. We occasionally interview engineers coming out of google. Often times their compensation does not match the level of engineering skill that they bring to the table. It's my belief that google is overpaying for the people they hire.
Techie's Perception
After working with a IT services company for 15 years, I have joined a MAFANGI company as a Tech Lead. It's been two months now. One of the feedbacks I have received is that I don't exude confidence.

I am in a new and demanding world and learning many new things as the domain is new to me. In my head, I am improving every day and use my skills well in new domain. However, with my experience level, I feel I should exude confidence (but not fake it).

What can I do to improve? Working consciously on Communication Skills is one thing on my mind. I am also a bit bad at marketing my self. Can someone please share their experience in similar situation?

Anti-depressants work well for me. They solve a lot of problems for a lot of people.
I'm absolutely not suggesting anyone should do this without their doctor's approval, but:

When I was in my 20's I tried various SSRIs - at least three, possibly four different ones - and my pattern was always the same, which was to take them for six months, get frustrated because they didn't do anything but make my hands shake, etc., then flush them down the toilet and quit cold turkey with no ill effects. Same thing with Ritalin. I was taking it for a few years because it (shockingly!) made me a more prolific computer programmer, then my doctor moved to California and I never got a new prescription. No withdrawal whatsoever that I noticed.

My personal, subjective, anecdote-based take on this is the stories of withdrawal are as overblown as the stories of effectiveness for a lot of these.

You might want to check your math there but I'm glad you said it. This is a popular misconception of universal basic income. It's an investment not an expense. People who receive basic income immediately spend it on taxed goods and services provided by businesses who in turn pay taxes on their profits. Businesses in turn use the added profits to expand, consuming more taxable goods and services and creating additional jobs which minimize reliance on public services like universal basic income and allows comsumers to purchase more taxable goods and services. Wash, rinse, repeat. Ultimately it's a net gain for the economy as a whole.

If you’re of a certain age and grew up in Miami, you’re familiar with the now defunct Miami Serpentarium and its director, Bill Haast. Haast lived to 100, having been bitten over 172 times. He similarly donated his blood for medical research and also tried to build immunity.

That doesn't mean it can't be dismal too.
ok, I concede that one. They used the term "imbalance of chemicals". To be fair, though, that was a "vintage commercial" and undated. And everything else is not disputed: how to recognize the symptoms of depression. However, I don't fault Big Pharma for not figuring out how to explain the neurochemistry of SSRI's in a 30 second TV ad.
That’s hard to believe, there are still power cuts (even if for 1-2 hours max) in summers.

A 4-part series on hash-based signatures against quantum computers
Stadia is just an opportunity to convert pay-once gaming to pay Google $x/month for decades for the same thing. There is nothing wrong with pay-once gaming except for greedy companies wishing it would be pay again-and-again-and-again, eyeing that 200 hours you spent in your favorite game and wondering how they can 'fix' that you didn't pay for 200 hours of entertainment. The more gaming cuts into tv and other entertainment the more important it is to change how we pay for games.

Linux compatibility being required probably won't mean as much as DRM-free efforts to distribute games, open source efforts to create compatibility across platforms, and proprietary efforts like Steam's. It's more like, there is enough linux compatibility now for Google to bother.

I think Steam's approach is much more interesting, in that you own the hardware and you own the games and you stream from your device to your device without third parties mining your data.

Nvidia's approach is the most versatile, you own the games on a multitude of marketplaces, and only pay to use the VMs, and can sign into the marketplaces on your own hardware too.

In both Steam and Nvidia's offerings you will still have your favorite games in 3 years, while you will have paid Google enough for a low-end gaming PC and a hundred games but have nothing except another bill to pay to continue access assuming Google continue service.
Well it didn't run its course for 12 years so that seems unlikely. I'm not sure how we'd gain knowledge without experimentation.
Or one day when Google isn't doing well there is a sudden phase transition to say the current way is the worst among all the possible.

We assume somebody competent is looking at this, but for all we know they are using the same dumb myopic evaluation as they use for promotions. I mean the same people came up with both.

IMO the authors misses the aspect of scope.

The term "Anti-Pattern" is not used in a vacuum. Instead, it usually refers to a specific term, like >Usability< or >Static Websites<, for example. If I refer to usage of fuzzy, thin fonts on mobile as an anti-pattern, it does not mean every artistic collage with this feature is automatically shit. If I live in 1820 and tell people not to use metal for horse riding gear, I'm not judging the possibility of a superior means of transportation made out of metal.

But for 99% of the people who just want to build something with a technology, not revolutionize it, the word is still a good metaphor to guide to the right path in the given time and place.

Of course, as most things, anti-pattern defining shouldn't escalate in dogmatism, but I don't follow the conclusion that the metaphor itself is destructive or bad...

Get 24/7 electricity from what source? The state run power producers don’t provide this in many tier 2 cities (pick some names and check). I strongly doubt if all tier 1 cities (except probably Mumbai) get power 24/7 either.

Power is cut during summers, during rains, and at other times very regularly. There are plenty of reasons and excuses for that to be happening.

>Teslas are much less likely than ICE cars to catch fire

I wonder how many of those ICE cars were new, or at least within the same life time of Tesla?

If we are talking about good old 20 years classic, then we all expect them to fail some day right? Or exotic cars that were be pushed to the limits and caught fire. ( From a few Lamborghini )

It is extremely rare ( if at all ), that a well maintained, newer ICE cars goes into flame just by filling up with petrol.

but it's pure naivety and shortsightedness that european countries take a pro-huawei stance in this trade dispute/war. Sure european people can get cheap smartphones from whuawei(because of Chinese government subsidies), but they would be pushed out of business in virtually every sector of the industry by whuawei someday. Anyone has been dealing with whuawei in business knows this. Actually this process has been ongoing.

And Blackberry was also successful for years. Google just announced a year over year decline in net income as their revenues grew less than their traffic acquisition costs.

Frankly, a lot of this is the patient's fault too. The vast majority of people _do not_ want to change their lifestyle. They don't want to quit smoking, drinking, eating fried food and leading a sedentary life. They don't want to lose weight or start cardio, go hiking/biking/swimming/walking, limit their caloric intake or eat more vegetables and fiber.

What they want is the doctor to provide a pill to fix whatever the immediate issue is, so they can get back to their life. When providers push back on this and try to suggest lifestyle changes, many patients get _angry_. Like, yelling, shouting, complaining to administrators that the provider isn't "listening to them" or "not taking their problems seriously". People want to be fixed, not fix themselves.

There's plenty of blame to go around, but a healthy share falls on patients themselves.

Source: SO is a medical provider. My faith in humanity falls daily and I can't believe the crap providers have to put up with. It's like a service job dealing with irritated people all day long, except these people read a blurb on WebMD and think they are an expert.
I don't think it matters at all anymore. Even .co is just as good enough.

Also the biggest reason why .com was considered a better alternative before was because of a seo myth that coms rank better. Now from your own experience and dozens of articles that myth too had been debunked.

So imo it really doesn't matter and people remember io just as well.

Since nobody has answered, here is my take on the Volkswagen-Samsung deal.

- Samsung got a better offer from somebody else du to high demand
- Or: The prices of raw material have increased due to high demand and Samsung needs to raise prices to be profitable.

- Volkswagen is unable or unwilling to match that higher price.

- To save face, Samsung is still delivering some of the capacity to the originally agreed-on price.

In other words, prices for batteries are rising and they are making it hard to produce EVs at the competitive prices that Volkswagen had in mind.

Let’s hope that this is a temporary situation and that supply is elastic enough to make prices fall again in the mid term.

Or else, the EV revolution is in trouble :/

>What if Apple had stuck to just selling iPods in 2007? Just like Blackberry, more iPods were sold in 2008 than ever before - the same year the iPhone was introduced.

Sure, but how are those things relevant? Those are strategic decisions, not decisions made by developers -- and don't concern what we're discussing, if the devs they hire are good for the company.

If somebody at Google C-level decided "let's close down Search and Ads, and just make kitchen juicers" their profits would also tank.

But that's not related to if the devs they hire are good for them. Unless their profit is hampered by dev output (and not one of the other reasons it can go down), their devs are fine for them.

Most saunas have relatively low levels of humidity, between 20% and 30%. It's hard to keep high humidity levels when temperature rises. Other than that, it's generally suggested to not exceed 20 minutes in a sauna. Steam rooms on the other hand have higher humidity levels but lower temperature and it's not allowed to stay more than 15 minutes inside.

From personal experience I've never used a sauna for more than 10 minutes and I always carry a bottle of water with me inside.
