Wait 'til they wake up your baby and toddler at OMG o'clock. At this point you value how considerate your neighbours are, because confrontation or police calls are inevitable if you don't have a good relationship with them.

Or your could tell your partner to stick earplugs in the baby's ears and see what happens...
I'm a big believer in "using the tools engineering is already using" but you need to also have a culture of including status updates in bugs. Developers typically are used to putting developery stuff in bugs, not statusy stuff. Crash logs, stack traces, commentary on possible root causes, diffs, etc. you can always find in the bug history. But updates? Not so much. Even a little "UPDATE: Root cause found, fix in progress, ETA 2 days," which takes 10 seconds to write, would make your Project Manager love you and stop him/her from inadvertently interrupting you out of the zone.
Thanks for the links, I love the town hall photo!
There is a slight insinuation in your comment that it was ignorant villagers who killed off large number of tigers due to population pressures. Superstition and a reaction against man-eating tigers were not the cause of the near extinction. They were intentionally hunted down by the British and the local Maharajas for "sport". Tigers were hunted mostly during the British era.

Youtube creator here. I am running a Youtube channel for the last few years and it is my full-time job. About a year back I criticized youtube on twitter. Soon afterward my views started dropping. Though it cannot be concluded that my tweets were responsible it is difficult to explain how a channel which was very popular in its niche will suddenly fall off the cliff?

I am over 40 years old and I am unable to find regular employment. For the last 6 months, I am learning to program and trying developing 3 web apps. I am hoping that one of them will reach ramen profitability.
How’s this any different from all the “Follow on twitter, and RT to enter our Giveaway” promotions that happen?
Low enough to be burned in a house fire.
Here is a missing advice in the art of interrupting software engineers: don't. Use asynchronous messaging, not alert-based messaging. Send emails. Make sure they read emails once a day and only interrupt if your question is really more urgent than that.

Thanks.

Daily meetings are not good. They waste people time and constitute an interruption. If you can sync the whole team so that the meeting happens on the morning before people start working, that's better, but still not good as you are imposing a schedule on a team that may know better.

I just finished a deadline at 2 am yesterday. My team is sane and did not expect me in the morning today (joined the slack around 11 am). Would not have done that if I had a daily at 9:30 am. I would not only have missed the deadline but the daily would have even further delayed it. What's more, I would have spent some time preparing it because I would feel I need excuses ready in case someone starts a blame-game.

If developers time is precious, don't waste one hour per day on dailies/daily preparation.
Pivotal is well known for having a particularly extreme point of view, bordering on forthright religious fervor, when it comes to pair programming and taking highly bureaucratic versions of Agile development to an extreme.

Pivotal can deliver things to customers in spite of all this (given that it’s surely not because of all this), which sort of makes any advice published out of there fundamentally irrelevant for people working pretty much anywhere else.
Running non-trivial code in your head is far too tedious for daily use. I'd much rather add debug checks for invariants when I want to confirm that the code works the way I expect it to.
What is the benefit for SKT of the stars?

These features don't make sense for PHP's execution model, your script is supposed to render one page and then exit. There's nowhere to put background tasks, event handlers, etc. Is it doing something else? I can't imagine turning PHP into an application server, and if you were, I'd suggest getting a different language.

It's possible to have request routing if you want to have the same .php file serve every request on your site, but that's totally inner-platform. There's already a thing routing URLs and it's the web server.

That ... seems like a mild consequence, all things considered.
My understanding (from Google Translating various posts) is that a company was trying to incentivise people starring the GitHub page (in an effort to justify the project internally?[1]). From the Facebook page (Google Translated):

[1] 국내에서.. 특히 대기업내에서 이런 오픈소스 프로젝트가 유지될수 있을 것으로 생각하는 이는 거의 없을 것이라고 생각합니다. 이런 환경속에서 저희로써는 매년 매순간 이 프로젝트가 잘 될 수 있다고 증명해야했고, 그 중 하나가 star 의 개수였습니다. -> I do not think there will be many people in the domestic market that think that such open source projects can be maintained, especially in large corporations. In this environment, we had to prove every year that the project could work well, One of them was the number of stars. -- quote from a comment by kyungtaak, a contributor.
mps-youtube using either channel or search, saving to playlist, and then stepping through that list is such a vastly superior experience to YouTube itself it's not even funny.

The opposite is true - people with Neanderthal ancestry require higher grades for acceptance than those without.
Here is a translation of the GitHub comment thread: https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&...

The core dev seems to be unapologetic about buying stars saying that managent tracks that to judge the viability of the project, and that many other projects do it.
None of this is particularly convincing.

> That's because they have explicitly stated that they will not deprecate the observational webRequest API, which has exactly the same privacy considerations as the content blocking API.

It's still a substantial improvement if popular extensions that don't need to use observational webRequest (ie. content blockers) no longer use this more expensive method. It's a leap of logic to suggest that supporting observational webRequest means that the simpler content blocking API has no benefit.

> Furthermore here you can see a tweet from Justin Schuh, lead of security and privacy on Google Chrome, where he claims that the "sole motivation is correcting privacy and security deficiencies" (which I just debunked as being a possibility), not performance (...) So between Justin Schuh and Simeon Vincent (author of the post you linked), who is lying? It must be at least one of them.

Neither. The change may be motivated by privacy and security but as Simeon Vincent explains, it also has substantial performance benefits. I'm not sure how you logically leap to the conclusion of "this has no performance benefits" from "we did this for privacy/security reasons".

It's also extremely misleading to compare the performance of a content-blocked site to internal browser performance. You know what has the best overall performance? An extension that blocks the whole page; 0ms speed, the best performance, almost zero battery drain, except that this hypothetical extension consumes substantial resources on its own. But hey, the 0ms page speed makes up for it. It'd be pretty silly for the Chrome team to base their decisions on the performance of rendering an incomplete webpage depending on both random extension makers and random website creators.

> Note that last one: 1.8 MB memory consumption. And they're arguing that we need to be "setting up and tearing down this component as needed" to conserve that "valuable" 1.8 MB.

Ghostery is only one extension among them, and all the adblocking extensions in that performance study ran a pre-pruned set of EasyList rules when popular adblockers run more rules in practice.
There are many different automated systems for checking for misconfigurations in your AWS organization. Capital One even developed a very popular one (Cloud Custodian). Like most automated configuration checkers or monitoring systems they rely on being configured by experts because at their default settings they are mainly a source of annoying alerts that end up auto-filed to email folders you never look in because this is agile and we can rationalize the alert rules in the next iteration (we won't). They can also auto apply actions. Have fun debugging your Cloud Formation stack that failed because the automated checker system terminated the instance without notifying anyone because it was missing a required tag.

As useless as these checkers are, the main problem is that there are so many different ways to gain access to resources that it's almost impossible to have a system that's useful to the business while also provably secure either manually or automatically.

Don't forget even AWS themselves created a "managed" policy for some minor service which accidentally gave users root access in the account: https://medium.com/ymedialabs-innovation/an-aws-managed-poli...
It’s called corrective implosion.
You are being flippant. The Mexico City problem is the author's research study (do a little bit of googling on the author) and therefore it is the example he knows best. The article also does not denigrate Mexican Engineers; you are reading it through your own unwarranted biases.

And finally, just so you know this is a problem with all major urban centers throughout the world. Here is a scary report on India - https://edition.cnn.com/2019/06/27/india/india-water-crisis-... This is a thorny problem for Govts, Politicians, Urban planners and Engineers which if not properly evaluated will have catastrophic consequences. That is why when people do research on this and point out problems and possible solutions, you listen carefully with gravitas.

> In GitHub, the weight of Star is heavier than you think. It is absolutely meaningful to mix in some leaps as to how devoted to the project are contributors, how high the completeness is, and how useful it is.
Your opinion stinks like a smelly asshole.

By your logic anything more than 100 miles inland is shit. Thank god people like you are mocked mercilessly when out of earshot.
I get what you are saying, but in that case they should just call it Honu, instead of calling it Racket 2. Call things by what they mean, rather than using a well marketed name to promote a new language. When you say Racket 2, people will almost always take it as a the next Racket version.

If I implement Python in Racket, I will call it Python, not Racket 3. Python is Python, Racket is Racket.

By the way, Perl 6 is supposed to have a compatibility mode with Perl 5 too.

All these things look fine in theory, but in practice, no one bets their production code on things like these.
Best tip I know: "use pgcli"
This reads like a satirical article. Gives a really bad impression of Pivotal.
Incredible, ~147 million people's data was exposed and they've only allocated 248,000 people's worth of checks. That's 0.17% of the victims..
That was more a failure of the artificially constructed electricity market. It didn't allow longterm contracts.

Weirdly enough, cities that had their own power companies could have such contracts and didn't get rolling blackouts. I worked in Santa Clara at the time and lived in Sunnyvale. We never lost power at work but frequently found all the clocks flashing when I got home.

Which sort of suggests that centralization is the problem, not public versus private. We had a private company failing and public power companies unperturbed.
In the first paper, the authors discuss what happens if you take the lowest energy pixel from each seam. The problem is that visual coherence is not maintained, because there is no connection between the removed pixel.

What you're talking about--expanding the number of pixels the seam can move from row to row--is certainly possible. This will require more computational resources, as each seam can continue from five different seams (or more if you choose to widen your slope parameter). And, I'm not sure you'd get enough visual coherence from these types of seams.

That said, the best way for to know for certain to is to try it out!
On the surface if that happens and no one looks twice at that, this doesn’t appear to be so different. Main difference would be that up until now GitHub stars are at least perceived to be mostly untainted by that sort of thing.
I stand corrected. It sounds like she exploited a vulnerability that allowed her to assume an IAM role with access, rather than the S3 public permissions I previously assumed.

It is cui bono and Epstein gets views and there are enough inconsistencies to warrant speculation.
You're suspicions are correct IME. Direct marketing isn't an option for illegal substances, you have to know someone that knows someone, otherwise the police would just wander around all day waiting for offers. Also at the leaf nodes of distribution there is unlikely to be enough cash reserves to be offering free product or even small samples, the leaf nodes are generally users themselves.

Mostly it seems to be propaganda that drugs can be addictive after a single hit, which is complete BS.
This open source project has been in development for about 5 years by SKT (SK Telecom), the biggest telecommunications company. (think Verizon) They launched a marketing event giving people a Starbucks gifticon, a mobile voucher to use at Starbucks, for starring their Github project.

A bunch of people(developers) lashed back, while hoping that maybe it was just a mishap by their marketing department.

Then the lead developer of the project, kyungtaak, posted a comment saying that he would do it again if he had to because he "loves" the project so much. And that people just need to cut him some slack.

The developers got furious by the comment, and it's going semi-viral among developers in Korea.

The company shut down the event, and posted an apology.

Do Twitter or IG followers not mean something? They don’t have the same weight as GitHub stars, but you’re def going to be perceived differently if you have a lot of IG followers and not too many follows. I assume Twitter is the same.

Apple has only just introduced the ability to transfer everything from one iPhone to another directly. You still infamously can't transfer many common data sets onto or off those phones through standard protocols, and Apple's proprietary software seems to have a poor track record, again pushing users towards iCloud.
The Case for Unbundling Parking and Housing
Why? Not all opinions are created equal. If you hold the opinion "I think vaccines give people autism" or "The world will be a better place without plastic straws," I absolutely think you should be made to feel guilty about it. I am happy to engage you in rational debate about why your opinion is not only unfounded but harmful, and saying that I shouldn't hurt people's feelings puts a damper on debate.

In Chicago, you really ought to be able to manage on $250k. There are nice houses in just about any neighborhood you want to live in on sale for less than $600k. That's $3000/mo monthly payments, plus say $15k of taxes, for $50k/y of housing costs. Food is, say, $20k, and transport another $10k. So you have $80k spent on necessities. If we assume a 40% average tax rate and an income of exactly $250k, you have $70k/y of slack. (To be clear, I understand people have other expenses, but I also think $600k is a pretty generous housing allowance in Chicago. However, the parents in question inexplicably spent $1.2M.)

Sure, it'll be expensive to send four kids to private school . . . so, don't do that? Or pay only part and use loans for the rest? But in reality the financial situation is probably even rosier than this, but they're probably squandering the money.

I've produced some rough translations (I had no time to proofread) related to this incident. https://gist.github.com/lifthrasiir/463b3b7e153dafe1319e5344...

I personally think that, it is clear that this is some kind of abuse but unclear if it is actually a violation of Github's Acceptable Use Policies [1] or not, making the incident somewhat more troublesome. Hopefully Github can update the policies to counter this kind of abuse in the future.

Microsoft, the largest software company with the most-used OS by businesses, most popular pc gaming platform and Xbox, maker of visual studio - The standard dev tool on windows, the biggest java competitor, one of the big SQL engines, one of the big web servers, has had a huge developer fan base since long before Ballmer’s famous “developers” presentation.

This is such a perfect analogy for where I feel DevOps fails in some implementations.

My experience is across three different companies now, and in the first two (not my current employer who... still do it wrong but it's the best I've seen), they fired the Ops guys and expected the Systems Engineers\Software Engineers to take those roles.

No overtime pay in either company for the extra work load that was placed on them (e.g. me) of course. So the only cost the companies incurred was productivity and the quality of work. The burden was entirely carried by the staff and to a greater degree the clients who accept a shoddier product and service.

Fortunately I quit both jobs to get to where I am now, though the old timers no doubt are still working ridiculous hours and are too scared to ask them selves "can I find better else where?".
I must have missed the real-time adaptation of seam carving, so thanks for bringing it to my attention! I'll certainly take a look at it.
I briefly considered doing something like this when I was a senior in high school trying to find a way to college. My mother was poorer than dirt, and I lived with her until she kicked me out of the house at 14.

My father took me in from then. From a very early age my father indicated I should make my own way through school. He'd shout "Full ride!" every time I'd get a B or less on a report card.

It was formative enough that I got a savings account when I was 10 years old or so. From then on, I saved almost all the money I got from mowing lawns, birthdays, and hanging papa johns mailers on doors at apartments. By 14, I had only accumulated about 500$, but every cent was post marked for my future tuition. I was dumb with excitement every time I got one of those ~.39 cent interest credits on my mailed statements. It was pretty much the only mail I ever received, once a month. When my mother kicked me out, she emptied my account immediately. By policy, an adult was required to have their name on the account of a minor. Even though it's not really that much money, I'm still a little bitter about it.

When I was reading through strategies for filling out the FAFSA, saying I lived with her would have been a haymaker. I didn't when it occurred to me that any mail to her house indicating what I had done would immediately set the wheels in motion for her to fraudulently sue my father for child support.

If it weren't for the fear of her, I suspect I would have done it, and felt no shame in doing so.

I've always felt like there should have been SOME consolation prize. Sorry tax payers. Lucky for you I never did it. Lucky for me my father stepped up despite years saying he wouldn't give me a dime. He ended up covering what my loans, small scholarship and job income didn't.
Why would this be illegal?

What was your channel?
That's how it used to be when I started in the 90s. My first projects were pretty much like "Here is the problem. Come back when you have questions" and me and others would often work for weeks without talking to management. Now it seems a lot of companies are doing more micromanagement. I also sometimes wonder if the younger programmers need more handholding these. When I started there were almost no people with formal training in software development so we were all self starters that had learned on our own because that was the only way to get into the field.
The second list is, by construction, a list of numbers from 1 to 8.

The first list also ranges from 1 to 8.
