Surely there's no contradiction between polite and sincere. How can someone be polite and not sincere? The American tendency towards excessive but superficial politeness strikes me, from another immigrant country, as being quite rude.

I would rather you be honest. How else can I know what you mean? Indeed, this seems to be required of a person in a low context culture where everyone comes from somewhere else.

That's not necessarily true. It depends on how many kids you'd want to insure (they're free on public insurance but cost on private), if you have any risk factors (even common allergies can drive up the price of private insurance a lot), your income later in life and health inflation. Over your lifetime it's not unrealistic that you're worse off with private insurance. So unless you're keen on that higher level of care (or luxuries as it's mostly about waiting times rather than getting care at all), staying in public insurance can be smart even if you pay the maximum amount.

Seems to me that Photoshop fakes are well handled by a sort of social whitelist. It doesn't matter what's on the picture if you can't show us who took it.

The Weekly World News served (serves?) up that sort of nonsense for years, but for the most part the media didn't go around falling for hoaxes, whatever the source. Probably a few deepfakes will spread like wildfire on social media and then the public will start wising up to the technology.
None of this proves that you're a good fit, either generally at a company or specifically on a team. Empirically, tech companies where executives and managers were mostly software engineers at one point and are considered best places with best talent almost uniformly have standardized hiring processes with whiteboarding algorithms and what not. Companies run by non-technical MBAs that aren't known for software talent tend to either not give such tests and/or have ad hoc processes where hiring managers hire whoever they want based on what they like. While hard data on hiring processes are difficult to get, I think this puts the burden of proof on those who are adamant that this is not an effective way.

More importantly, you need to look beyond yourself. I'm an old developer and I don't like to be grilled on algorithms either. But my understanding is that it works very well and that no one's ever come up with anything that's better in terms of effectiveness at scale. Giving random hiring managers discretion to hire who they want simply doesn't work if you're a desirable place to work and need some minimal level of competence across the board. What do you think would work any better? This focus on how it feels from your perspective is fine if you all you're trying to say is that it sucks for you personally but ultimately if you're trying to prove that this is a bad process for those who employ it, you need to make a case that there are better, more efficient processes. Every process will lose some qualified people - so that you may have been qualified, but were rejected isn't meaningful evidence against the process.

Btw, appeal to special credentials as a way to criticize standard procedures is an implicit argument that hiring managers should be given discretion to bypass standard procedures to hire special candidates. I've never really seen this go well, at a level below, say, industry pioneers. I do distinctly remember the one time I did that as a manager to hire someone with a rather long series of accomplishments who refused to take coding tests - I had to fire him rather quickly. The interesting part, other than the complete absence of any sort of actual productivity, is that he couldn't work with anyone, was right about everything and his long list of accomplishments was constantly used as a reason why he didn't have to do anything he didn't want to and any rule he didn't want to follow was stupid.

So I don't think standard algorithm tests are that great as a filter, but at the very least, the willingness to go through it communicates some level of willingness to do things you don't like or aren't best at. A huge part of what makes engineers successful isn't the ability to do things they are good at, but the willingness to do things they are not good at.
Thank you for your suggestion. I will soon host the tutorial on GitHub Wiki and find a way to host the Doxygen documents, too.

Right now you can refer the following tutorial to get started.

> It is true that the private insurance increases significantly over the years, but it is still WAY less than the gov insurance. The costs for the gov insurance is about 25% of your salary (remember, it's split between employer and employee, but as a self-employed you have to pay both sides). Assuming an income of just 5k per month, that would be 1.25k! per month, or more than twice the base tariff.

It's actually about 15% in total. The maximum amount currently is around €750 for both employer and employee.
What is the average cost of surrogacy?
Also it gets worse because it also undermines the credibility of factually correct news. Once a fake isn’t easily distinguishable from reality any more, even media literate people will start to question or even dismiss any piece of information the moment it feels at all contrary to their thinking.
I've seen this posed the other way.

It is incredibly slow and small even by today's compact car standards. We have made a huge amount of progress.
The best one I received: "It is easy to like likable people. It is much harder to like people who have flaws. It does not mean you should not do it."

I saw a lot of tech people with the same bias as me: instead of dealing with people who think a bit different or act a bit different, we prefer to isolate and stay in our own world. Dealing with different people is hard but can be really rewarding. The lazy approach of sticking with your own crowd is comfortable but not necessarily the best approach.

And I double down on her "thinking is work too". I think internet makes us very addicted to have a constant flow of information pouring into our brain. We dont want it to stop. Disconnecting and staying with your thoughts is something that used to happen naturally, now it takes some efforts to do it. Yet we absolutely need it
Sure, but that car took 20 seconds to get to 60 and only weighs 1300lbs. It probably offers little more safety than a motorcycle. Neat piece of history though
Have we? Modern diesels easily get 60-70mpg(49-58 US mpg) without even trying, and modern petrols are not much worse - I recently drove a small VW Polo with a 1.2L I4 90bhp petrol engine, fully loaded with luggage, and averaged 54mpg(45 US mpg) over 600 miles. Even my own Mercedes-AMG with 381bhp can easily average 32-35mpg(26-29 US mpg) when driven on longer trips.
"Market makers" ensure that at any time, there are standing orders to buy/sell that are close to the current market price (the difference is called the spread). If you buy/sell at market price, you are taking an existing offer at their price.

You could also do what they do. Instead of buying immediately at market price, you could enter a lower price and create a standing order to buy at that price. However, if the price goes up, you might miss out on buying the stock at all.

Similarly for selling. You can enter a higher price, but it won't sell if the market price doesn't go up.

Conceptually this isn't so different from what a grocery store does. They offer something for sale and wait for a buyer willing to pay that price. However, margins are much lower and prices change much quicker for stocks.

(Note: I'm not recommending messing with any of this.)
Her #1: "Security and reliability are more likely to go wrong in the seams between components".

Cannot confirm for security. Too naive thinking. Security mostly goes wrong in the very core, not at the seams.

One of her next is also a big red flag

> A big part of what I do as an engineering manager is stopping truly brilliant people from executing on plans that begin with the words “I can just do this myself in a weekend.”

It completely denies the impossibility of doing great work in a team. Someone has do it somewhen. She'll loose the brilliant guy who offered to do it properly, and she'll come up with the typical business solution. Unscalable and unmaintainable.

I stopped reading then. Way too self-congratulating engineer bashing.
No, it’s idiotic. Companies in in aggregate enjoy earnings growth. Ergo why what you buy today is worth more tomorrow.
Thank you for your interest.

Right now, the library can be used on both Linux and Windows (using MSYS2 or WSL which is my development environment). I have no access to a MacOS system, so I have not tested it there.

Except native operations such as files, networking and threads, everything else is written in C99, with portability in mind.

The library was highly inspired by the Java standard API. Yes, I have gone through SDL especially with threads and mutexes (which will be available in version 1.2).

Also, it would be great if you could list out any particular features you require.
It weighs about 600kg and has a 1 liter engine that makes about 50bhp. You can run a car of that size and weight on solar power in 2019.

and what about the the communities for queers and autistics on 8ch that will be lost in order to cater to your particular sense of indignation while in effect doing virtually nothing to limit the ability of psychopathic losers to kill large numbers of people?
as an aside assigning any credibility to the motives of crazy person with no value for human life makes no more sense in the case of mass killings than it does to treat those of ted bundy or john wayne gacy or mark david chapman as credible.
Even for options it doesn't have to be zero sum.

E.g. you could give someone insurance on their stock position if you can take the risk. This allows them to participate in the game so you both benefit.

Another is that you might be able to lend more cheaply than the other can loan but they want to leverage up their portfolio. With options you can effectively make a cheaper loan to them to purchase a specific product. They lend more cheaply, you make part of the spread.
Well, that seems to be an unfounded assumption that I'm considering only powerful machines, especially since possible challenges on small devices were mentioned in the OP.

In fact, I done a fair amount of ARM coding so I understand what you are trying to say.

Nevertheless, your comment seems to point out smartphones may be less powerful, but sheds no light on what the delta might be for boot performance or how you can be confident it's say, more than a few hundred milliseconds.

Maybe it is, I haven't isolated and investigated that single difference enough to form a reasonable guess. Have you?

> Should I be thrown in jail if I express a "bad" idea?

If, say, you're aware that your readers have a tendency towards "exuberance" when it comes to dogpiling / harassing / doxing / etc. people you call out on your blog and your "bad" idea expresses a wish that someone has a very bad time of things, yeah, you should definitely be looking at consequences (perhaps not jail-level, mind) for that idea.

(cf people like Gervais on Twitter who have a consequence-free dogpile mob ready to relentlessly harass anyone criticising them. Or POTUS, in the current instance.)
On the other hand, in the same way that Google is (claiming to be) trying to make the web fast with AMP, they could make the web fast by refusing to index pages that don't provide a non-javascript experience. (Yes, you can make a slow page without Javascript, but it sure is easier with it)

Why the title?
Wikipedia gives a terrible description.

It's basically eBay, but focused specifically on limited release/high value fashion - sneakers, bags, streetwear, eatches, etc. Since the market rate for these items changes over time, the gimick (hence the name) is to track them like stocks.

Stockx basically facilitates the sale and exchange of items, taking a cut of the sale and verifying the integrity of the items.

It is also the reason why we have about 695135 copy/paste blog posts on how to train a neural network on MNIST.

Whenever you see a lot of "Hello world!"-esque tech posts on how to do something, you can safely assume that it's 95% about building a online presence / reputation, and 5% about being helpful to the beginners.

I love good tutorials as much as the next person, but this constant CV-building nonsense is getting tiresome.

jesus christ, did a footbal mum write this article?

> discovered the company had been archiving his data even when he browsed in Incognito mode, a setting that advertises itself as one that does not save browsing history.

yeah.. history vs IP/browser fingerprinting

Overall nothing new in this article and the title is obviously a false statement.

The file is bigger because he's been using the service longer and my take is that Google is tracking the location almost continuosly (more data), whereas Facebook has way way more sensitive data, like... chat messages and images with all your friends for the past 10 years..
Good Reasons for Upgrading to a Modern ERP
Well funded start-ups (and established players) are all working on this. Given that the market is huge and Diabetes is yours for life you can bet that a lot of clever people have spent a lot of time on this. Not all of the companies that work on this problem have made it, on top of that it is a patent minefield. It will take you a few 10's of millions of $ or Euros to get to market and you would need to do everything right the first time. Then you still don't know much about how your device will function in the field until enough time has passed that you can judge by the returns where you got it wrong. Doing a respin is expensive.

So, Theranos can exist, and if the money that had gone to Holmes and then this indeed would be a solved problem. But it didn't. Note that there are pumps with a closed loop option on the market today, but they are neither convenient nor simple to use. It is work in progress. I fully expect a simple to use closed loop system to be available in quantity somewhere in the next year or two based on recent market research. The time is indeed ripe. The basic tech is there and the pumps have achieved a level of miniaturization and reliability that it is feasible, there are still problems to overcome but those are all within the realm of the possible, do not require unobtanium and enough parties are working on it (competition is fierce) that at least one of them will solve it within that time frame.
It’s not true in absolute terms: for example during a bubble or an upward trend everyone wins. However, if you only consider excess returns (return - some average return), or look at certain derivatives then there are situations where some winning positions require equivalent losing positions.
I would love to see an open review system like that. Comments out in the open, along with the experiments and experimental data which supports or does not support the work.

Science is all about experimentation, yet we currently measure papers by number of citations rather than by experimental support.
I recently reported a fraudulent transaction on my card. My existing card was invalidated and a new one was on the way. Apple Pay was automatically made aware of this, it said something to the effect of: “Looks like you are getting a replacement card. You can still use this until it arrives.” After it arrived, the number had automatically updated (I didn’t notice exactly when).

In other words, this particular aspect of the UX is already solved.

I much prefer the Perl way for writing short disposable stuff and much the Python way if any other person (including me in more than 1-2 weeks) is going to use/modify/read the code.

The gap between perl and python seems cleaner than the gap between python and anything-statically-typed, at least.
I'm not an expert in this area by any means, but my understanding is that vaccines use dead viruses rather than live ones, and they need a particular amount over time. So this wouldn't allow the virus to be passed along by mosquito generations, and you obviously couldn't control the dose amount. So not sure how practical the idea would be.

Fair enough. Agreed, it would have been expressed more clearly as a some sort of relative perception.

The economy is not a zero-sum game and that's something I wish more people understood. Real GDP per capita grows. The average US citizen has access to more intrinsic values that aristocrats had just a few centuries ago.

However, he may be talking about pure trading, a.k.a speculation, which is very close to a zero-sum game. If you are not in for the dividends, yes, that's close to a casino where the banks who charge for transactions are the inevitable winners.

I wish we followed Warren Buffet's advice and forbid to sell a stock less than 6 month after buying it. I also don't see any interest in making the stock prices change every nano second. A quote a day can be enough if you are an investor, not a speculator.
You need to update yourself on the vulnerability of MD5.

5 years ago, a run of the mill gaming PC could crack an MD5 hash in a reasonable amount of time. Worst case, you'd have to let it run overnight.

One of the big issues is collisions. You might not find the original key, but you'd find something that hashed to the equivalent output.
I don’t see why it wouldn’t work online though. I think platforms like Twitter should adopt a “filter-list” like approach, where you could “unsubscribe” from different kinds of content / posters (e.g. “porn”, “gore”, “right-wing extremists”, “sci-fi enthusiasts”, etc.) - these lists could be generated both automatically (e.g. for porn), and / or manually moderated.

Depends. You can invest low risk (yielding say only 5% yearly profit). If a big company which is supposedly stable falls (such as Morgan Stanley) you may get lose a little but since you spread enough not so much.

You get income than the interest from your bank this way. While in EU you get guaranteed 100.000 EUR when a bank collapses, but if shit really hits the fan (crisis, many companies collapsing, EUR or USD losing a lot of value) you are toasted regardless.
