Depends on the refactoring :P

IMO you can spend days shuffling around the same code if you want. It's not that refactoring is bad it's a priority thing.

Also if you refactor too frequently that's a sign you need to take a step back and more thoroughly plan out your system.
If safety is always the number one priority there will be no climbing trees, no swimming, no bicycling, etc.

Some dangers, like traffic, have consequences that are extreme and irreversible. Getting frauded online is not.. although grooming is a more difficult issue.

In many ways, she embodied the spirit of our current cultural moment. Obsessed with one's own victim-hood and "self-esteem", and the synergistic expansion of one's sense of personal grievance that can be obtained by viewing one in the light of the other, recursively, ad-infinitum. Her death can be seen as symbolic of the diminishing relevance of these qualities. Power via wielding guilt, and resilience via narcissism can only persist for so long, after all.
Best Flushing Toilet Reviews – Buyer’s Guide
I'm not sure what app it is, but I really really like the feature where you can see exactly how many groups (and their sizes) are in front of you in line. Makes it easy to decide when to start heading back to the restaurant or when to order another drink at the bar you're hanging out at.

Maybe not Yelp, but I thought most had a basic texting option as well? If not, that's lame.
Awesome, just wish I could install the server locally, would rather link someone at work to an internal URL. Some of the output at work would be too sensitive to trust to any third party.

This is the first I see software like this, has anybody seen other similarly useful utilities? I think it's invaluable to be able to share your console output with coworkers in real time so they can also help to troubleshoot.
To quote Jobs about Dropbox - Yelp is a feature not a product.

While I understand the desire for a unified Python ecosystem as much as anyone - this kind of pettifogging is not going to convince anyone to switch to Py3.

Consider if the authors of the article had used (for example) Ruby - you probably wouldn't ask why they didn't do it in Python3, so why do you do it if they write it in Python2?
It makes me wonder if you could use a body camera and some machine learning to guess what the user is doing and then just provide a log to the user of their daily time spend. You could even break it down by minute. With a corresponding app on their PC and phone, you could turn "Phone time" into a description of what exactly they were doing on the phone.

I've seen this repeated a few times. Does it stem from the Credit theory of money?

"The fractional reserve theory where the money supply is limited by the money multiplier has come under increased criticism since the financial crisis of 2007–2008. It has been observed that the bank reserves are not a limiting factor because the central banks supply more reserves than necessary and because banks have been able to build up additional reserves when they were needed. Many economists and bankers now realize that the amount of money in circulation is limited only by the demand for loans, not by reserve requirements."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_creation

If so, isnt it more the case that that deposit had just been waiting around waiting for someone wanting credit.

If you are literally saying the money comes from the ether, why even let people make deposits at all. If you can create money you can pay 0% interest on it, rather than the 1/2/3% that I'd demand, and you wouldn't have to worry about bank runs either.

From what I can gather its more of a model, than a literal truth. If you apply for a loan from $bankx then they will tell your $banky to increase your balance by $100. That is all electronic and basically an article of faith between the banks, no gold bullion gets transferred or whatever. Ultimately it does need to be grounded in reality somewhere. I can't set up $bankz and just start making $100 trillion worth of loans backed with nothing but a banking licence.
If something is worth stealing, then it would be. The majority of code isn’t infrastructure quality (equivalent to setting cement and leaving it there for a hundred years with minor maintenance). Until then, the technical flaws must be balanced with collective governance.

(Incidentally, cement with such long lifespans were widely used during the Roman Empire)
Slightly off topic, but C/C++/Rust are always the go-to languages when talking about high performance. People love the speed of C but it's so bare-bones that they move to C++, or it's too dangerous so they move to Rust. But those are much too complicated, so people came up with Zig and Nim and D instead, but those are very far from C, even though they're not as far as C++ and Rust. So I'm wondering, are there any languages almost as close to C but slightly safer and slightly less bare-bones? Because I like C a lot, I think it's a great language with an excellent simplicity, except for some slight rough edges.
They'll likely just completely replace them with an in-house solution. Yelp in Apple Maps is probably just a temporary solution

Perl has foreach which can iterate over ranges, arrays, lists and is synonymous with for, yet works just like foreach (that's Perl just being Perl).
The English Bill of rights is not what you think it is.

It wasn't about giving freedom to the people, but shifting power from the monarchy to parliment.

The freedom of speech enshrined in the English bill of rights also isn't remotely comparable to the USA idea. It was about parlimentary priviledge - the ability for MPs to have freedom of speech while within parliment. It was about the freedom of parliment to debate and vote without interference from the monarchy. (Parliment can and does impose its own limits on freedom of speech within the chamber and MPs have been literally removed from the chamber for things they've said).

The UK has never had freedom of speech. We even had an official censor (Lord Chamberlain's Office) until 1968. Blasphemy was illegal until 2008, and wasn't just a legacy law which had been forgotten, but there were convictions for it right the way through to the 1990s at least.
We read her book Song of Solomon in my senior high school English class. It was one of my favorites of the class, along with Catch-22. I don't think I really got even close to 100% of what it was about, but her writing was just so gripping and beautiful, I still enjoyed the ride.

Years later I read Beloved and I was able to appreciate it much more. I should really read more of her work.

Yourncery first question is already leading you down the wrong path: std::thread is a thread handle, not the thread itself. Equating the handle with the thread (a complex construct of a separate stack, seperate processor state, separate scheduling state etc.) is folly.

There are more software architectures between heaven and earth than exist in your philosophy. C++ especially is an old language and most code was written before C++11 started to be adopted. So a pure C++11 style codebase that follows the associated design best practices may be able to deal with std::thread and similarly restricted classes with little friction. But this just isn't the norm. Most big important codebases are too far down different roads to adjust them to play nice with move semantics.
gandi.net gives you a month after expiry to renew at the regular price, and then another period i think longer than a month to renew at a higher price.
Streeteasy started employing the same dark pattern a few months ago. It seems like companies who have an effective monopoly just cannot resist the temptation.

They replaced the listing agent's number with a number that takes you to one of their agents. (After a while they added back the option to contact the actual listing agent, but you have to first click on a link to get to another page.)
Also, as soon as I contact an agent about a listing their agents start spamming me with texts and emails written in a way that try to obscure that they are not the ones who have the listing. At this point I never contact an agent through the Streeteasy platform. I just google the agent's name to find their contact info.

High-end retailer Barneys files for bankruptcy
Something that I found works well is just emailing influential people who you think would really benefit from your product and asking them for feedback. Since you're not selling your product, people (even busy ones) do reply. If you built a good product, they will keep using it (and maybe even tell other people about it) and if there are kinks that need to be ironed out, that's great to know as well.

This is apparently how Ilya from Datanyze got his first customer. He cold emailed Ben (then vice president at KISSmetrics) asking for feedback (https://artofemails.com/cold-emails#feedback).
Steve Jobs FTW yet again. I thought he was wrong about Dropbox for the longest time. But their latest attempts at "productizing" their service (Adobe / Zoom / Slack / Atlassian / Google Docs / Office integrations, "social" features, etc. etc.) have convinced me that simple file sync, which is all I ever wanted from them, is not enough to sustain a company. Meanwhile the shareholder-induced march downwards continues.
There is advantage here. Imagine being able to have a CI process for design files - just upload your sketch file's changes to the repo and this tool in your pipeline builds/deploys a version of this in HTML in your staging environment. Easy link sharing built in.

If designers have the ability to work closer to the web, more power to them. It should be our job as software engineers to make this as easy as possible and this tool could be one specific implementation.
I'm the Backblaze employee that wrote that quote. :-)

> YOU can work around this problem, the naive customers CANNOT.

That was specifically in response to a Backblaze Personal Backup feature request.

> I guess a "delete" button could be fatal for some of the older folks out there.

Just to be clear, Backblaze offers two product lines: 1) Backblaze Personal Backup which is designed to be simple and easy to use, and 2) "Backblaze B2" which is designed as a toolkit for programmers and IT people. So in this particular case, we SHOULD have a "delete all files" button (for IT people), and we know this currently sucks (it's on a roadmap to add the feature).

You can select "some group of files" (like one folder) and delete them all at once from the web GUI, but if you have like 1 million files (which is a perfectly reasonable and normal backup) the web GUI will "time out" and fail to delete all the files in one operation.

The current recommended work around is to write a very short "life cycle rule" in the web GUI that deletes any/all files 1 day after it is uploaded and let it run for 24 hours and come back to an empty bucket. Yes, I know this is lame. https://www.backblaze.com/b2/docs/lifecycle_rules.html

To paraphrase my quote about computer naive users, the reason we don't prioritize this particular feature higher is the IT people (like yourself) are capable of doing the crazy work arounds like spinning up an EC2 instance. :-) But we will get to it, I promise!

In our defense, we have 5 open programmer job recs, and 5 open IT job recs, and we're having trouble finding enough (qualified) people who want to come help us build these features for customers. If you want to work in a really fun employee owned business in San Mateo, California where you can bring your dog to work, please come and join us! https://www.backblaze.com/company/jobs.html
Sadly that leaves quite some, who do take it literally.
I'm curious whether Yelp is only doing this in states without two-party consent to record. In the article the author (Yelp user/restaurant customer) is told the line is recorded before being connected through but the restaurant employee on the other end appears completely unaware. I would guess there are at least a few Attorneys General who would take issue with this approach.

It's not even close to the shadiest part of Yelp's business but it's one that at least some businesses could work together and push back on without running afoul of the binding arbitration/class action prohibition in Yelp's ToS.
If only there were a way to open a link in a new window or tab.
There is also the reverse process: people who are older than officially recorded. When my in-laws came to the USA from Vietnam after the war they wanted to be able to work for a long time before anyone forced the to retire, so they just said they were 25 years old, an understatement of quite a number of years. Upheaval and displacement tend to wipe out government records.
(IANAL) I smell a class action lawsuit coming, especially if this is being done without the knowledge or consent of the restaurants in question.
I wonder is there an interesting/useful way to integrate this concept and Tim Urban's time blocks [1]?

Cool, thanks for the reply. For me making components is the hard work, anything that helps automate organizing / naming / and synchronizing a component library with sketch sounds intriguing to me. Is the output intended to be code-edited by a developer to add hrefs, interactivity? Is it intended to generate pseudo components for later finessing or is it intended to produce the final outcome of a site directly from sketch (making Sketch the new dreamweaver?)

Yep, I suppose that's why you continue to use Seagate drives. They're often more than 2% cheaper than the competition!

Carbon-14 datings works because once an organism dies, it stops exchanging carbon with its environment, so C14 stops coming in. Carbon dating any living organism will come back with "it died 0 years ago/hasn't died yet", give or take whatever details make it more complicated in reality than it is in theory, as it always is.
This is basically the plot of the new Blake Crouch novel Recursion - except the "device" requires you to die while reliving a past memory (after which you travel back in time to the moment the memory occurred).
Selection bias can factor into it - watching anime isn't (didn't use to be?) very socially acceptable, so people who don't mind flaunting it on an avatar might be those who don't have much to lose anyway.

On you crashlytics concern. We use sentry which allows you to sanitize data being sent for reporting. We consider the sentry app to be "unprotected" from a data security standpoint and therefore assume anything sent to it is breached.

>I really wouldn't have expected this to work but once you read about it.... of course it would.

It's a fun DIY project and you can get it almost working. I suspect edge cases (stemming from different lighting conditions and imperfect finger detection) would render this method unworkable in general.
In that story, the piggies couldn't file class action lawsuits against the wolf. If sites could lie without consequence in official business capacity, why would the average privacy policy take 18 minutes to read?

I think you're over-estimating the work taken to replace a drive -- their storage is redundant using a custom Reed-Solomon error correction setup[1,2] (meaning no downtime while replacing a drive so none of the surrounding work you mentioned is necessary), and at the scale they're operating on they have staff just replacing drives (they are averaging 5 failures a day and from memory they had higher failure rates a few years ago) or bringing up new storage pods and other maintenance work.

While they do have multi-failure redundancy (17 data, 3 parity), it wouldn't be a good idea to push the limits regularly because that means you're risking the loss of actual customer data. And adding more parity to give you extra wiggle-room would result in both storage efficiency losses and performance losses. It probably wouldn't be advisable to expand the "stripe" size to cover an entire vault (to increase the independent disk failure tolerance without reducing the data-to-parity ratio) because you'd kill performance (the matrix multiplications necessary to do Reed-Solomon have polynomial complexity).
