Yeah, Signal or Telegram might be a much better balance. But I don't want to be a salesman and try and push the technically superior choice on my friends and family. If I did, though, I would probably push one of those.
For what it may be worth to anyone, as someone who prefers an "ergonomic" split keyboard with a softer touch (so my hands and wrists don't get stiff; I also use a brace on the right hand just when typing), I have used several keyboards, and strongly disliking the Microsoft one (my hands hurt worse: some keys I use heavily like Alt and/or Space felt stiff), I tried a probably inexpensive one I really liked (but left the job that bought it and now I don't remember the name), sprung for a couple of Kinesis freestyle ones that I loved (one at work, and one at home), then decided to make the leap and actually try the Kinesis Advantage2 (LF), and after rearranging some keys and about a month of use, it feels strange to go back to a "normal" keyboard again, even the Freestyle, though if I did go back it would only be because the keys seem to require a very little more force than the Freestyle. (No other connection to the company.)

There was another interesting split keyboard ("SafeType") on Amazon that moves the keys to a vertical position, each hand basically facing the other, that is on my someday list to try if I ever get enough desire to spend more money. Now I see that the freestyle can do that too, but I would want some way to rest the forearms during intermittent use.

AWS Developer Tools | Seattle | Developer, Product Manager, UX | Full-Time | ONSITE | https://aws.amazon.com/products/developer-tools/

AWS Dev Tools builds the tools that we all use for software development and CI/CD ... at least some of them :-). I'm leading a team (CodeStar) of impassioned developers trying to re-invent how we create, release, and iterate on software quickly and safely.

We're looking for engineers, PMs, and UX people to build this out! If you have experience with different languages (Python, Go, Java, Node, etc...), different platforms (Linux, iOS/Android, MacOS, Web Apps), different workflow tools (JIRA, Circle CI, Pivotal Tracker, etc...), different organizations (startups, enterprises, governments, universities), I'd like to hear from you.

I come from a startup background and the rest of the team has varied skills - you will learn ALOT here. Unfortunately I only have room for people with 5+ years of professional experience right now but if you have less experience and just want to send me an email, I'm happy to give feedback - I just don't have any entry-level positions unfortunately.

CyberArk (Conjur team) | Backend / DevOps / Security | NEWTON, MA | FULL-TIME The CyberArk Conjur team helps people write super reliable software that's hard to hack. We're building tools that make the best security practices convenient for developers, ops, and security teams. We're hiring engineers to help with that effort.
ABOUT US

We're a busy team, thanks to the increasing success of our product: the Conjur appliance secures the entire software development and deployment lifecycle for companies who want to ship features as fast as possible without increasing their risk of security breaches.

Conjur engineers work on a wide variety of projects, from integrations with some of today's most popular DevOps tools to moonshot projects that seek to revolutionize the way engineering teams factor in security when deploying applications.

We know that if you're a professional engineer, experience with specific tools or languages can usually be picked up quickly. That being said, Conjur engineers use and integrate with the following tools on a more-or-less daily basis:

* Golang, Ruby, Rails, Postgres, and JS

* Docker, Git, and Jenkins

* Kubernetes, OpenShift, Cloud Foundry

* Ansible, Puppet, Chef

Thanks for chipping in. While I don't deny that could be happening in India as well, most of the reports of mistreatment of restaurants by aggregators(in India) have been anecdotal.
I would posit that:

And honestly it's a little harder than Broadcom's to reverse. Xtensa doesn't have nearly the same support in reversing tools as ARM and MIPS. On the plus side though you do get unstripped binaries since it's a static library.

Biggest disadvantage of books is that they are shareable, reusable, and DRM free. For business, anyway.

There's lots of cool things you can do to enhance learning with computers, like daily quizzes, discussion boards, etc. But replacing books is not one of them IMO
There are an absolute ton of companies working in this area (mostly in the UK). But the reason they don't need VC capital is simple...they make a ton of money already (VC funds are naturally interested in capital-intensive businesses that are kind of junky...companies in this sector aren't capital-intensive and are usually obscenely profitable).

Train infrastructure is simply not economical by comparison to buses. You could have a bus system as good as, say, Buenos Aires, if you were willing to let it be run by the private sector. Cars are not entirely replaceable by trains and buses. But if you replace N privately-owned, mostly unused cars with N/10 privately-owned _shared_/rental/taxi cars whose utilization is much more than 10x that of the average privately-owned non-shared/rental/taxi car in the city, then you win big even if you also improve buses and even trains.
That is in fact a delusion many people seem to have. Reading books is seen as an inherent good, regardless of the book. School children are often told to get one book a week from the library. Any sort of book, it's often thought, will be good for the child. In my personal experience, most go straight for the "Where's Waldo" books. Fun books... but come on.

Poverty is a big factor in long term planning. For example in America poor people pay more for toilet paper because they can’t buy a large pack of toilet paper rolls, instead they often can only afford to buy one roll at a time. This is a well documented effect of poverty or financially constrained living.
Better would be adopting the permissions controls that LineageOS provides.

Doing exactly this, replacing stunt doubles, is what I wrote and acquired a global patent back in '08. I tried to create a personalized advertising agency: put people into the advertisements themselves, driving the new car, wearing the new fashions, taking the luxury vacation. Problem was, I started my effort in '04, had a working pipeline by '08 - but none believed it was possible. Even when I'd demonstrate right in front of them, investors thought it was a trick. I eventually went bankrupt and quit. Today, we have deepfakes, where we could have had personalized adverting a decade ago.
Friend of mine spent 6 months in Goma working as a nurse. Came back with mild PTSD. It wasn't the nursing that did it.
I washed one of my Natural in the dishwasher, and it still worked for a while, but as hard as I tried to make sure it dried afterward, the keys started to feel more "scratchy." It's possible this would all be in my head, but I feel like the water did do some level of damage.
Remote-control tractor seems simple enough.
I doubt you could deliver better rail for that money. Rail is fantastically expensive, and if you get the routes wrong, that's a forever mistake. Buses are another story, but even NYC, which has the density to support a fantastic bus system... has a crap bus system.

When the Kaba Simplex (a commercial door lock) was discovered to be easily bypassed by holding a magnet near it, yes, it was in fact a design defect and the company had to correct it by giving repair kits out to purchasers.
The causal arrow points the other way. Today Firefox finally started blocking third party cookies (some, not all as Brave does; they use Disconnect.me's 3rd party cookie blocking list) by default. This does not limit mainstream appeal, it follows Safari and Brave, who have been leading the privacy by default movement among browsers.
I cannot speak to motives behind the move but my experience has also been that administration has driven this.

My kids schools are 100% Chromebooks. This has been great for scheduling extracurricular activities and making their backpacks lighter. It really hasn't improved their ability to learn mathematics or English.
The wired older Mac keyboard and the Magic Keyboard 2 are really good, it's my favorite non-mech keyboard by far and the only keyboard (mechs included) where I can really type and manipulate stuff without thinking at all. I really wish Apple would put their PBT keycaps on Macbook keyboards, they feel so much nicer.
Also great, and in my opinion, quite Simenonesque: Missing Person [1] by Patrick Modiano (the French winner of the 2014 Nobel Prize in literature).

Well, when I was a kid in the 80’s, almost all of my textbooks had been recycled from the year before, and all of them had been drawn in, scribbled over, ripped up, had jelly stains on them - the school district replaced them every maybe five years or so, so every once in a while, I’d get a clean one, but usually I’d get something that was useless in places.

On the other hand, my kids are learning from PDF’s now, and once the lesson is over, they delete the PDF’s, so they have nothing to reference - and even if they were saving them, it’d be a challenge to try to organize them in any meaningful way.
I was an amazon fresh subscriber but switched to Safeway delivery. Prices are lower, better quality, way more choice. Amazon simply didn't have what I wanted. Also, if I order in a 4 hour block, delivery is free, (1 hour is 15 bux). so I picked 5-9pm, after work, free delivery, and I don't have to go out.

And for groceries in general, walmart delivery on items like cangoods can be a big difference. Soups can be a dollar more on amazon. Jet.com (now owned by walmart) is free shipping of you fill out a box, i find spices cheaper on jet, but can goods can be hit or miss.

Amazon is handy, but its far from cheapest on many things.
That's true but they can take (nearly) straight paths to their destination without stopping and idling, and are smaller and lighter.

What does that verify? Assuming they key hasn't be compromised, it does verify that the holder of the key uploaded a file at a particular time. It still doesn't show that the video itself is genuine. Although it does seem to allow us to fall back on the trustworthiness of the source which is better than nothing.
I find it rather discouraging to hear they are not removing the blocking API for now. It's basically an empty statement, not reassurance. They still may or may not remove the API, they don't want to promise anything or show any commitment to users' needs and priorities.
In his dissent in Roper v Simmons, Justice Scalia gave a couple examples of brutal crimes committed by juveniles:

"Defendant Christopher Simmons of this case, who was only seven months shy of his 18th birthday when he murdered Shirley Crook, described to his friends beforehand—in 'chilling, callous terms,' as the Kennedy majority opinion puts it—the murder he planned to commit. He and his 15—year—old accomplice then broke into the home of an innocent woman in the middle of the night, forced her from bed, walked her to a trestle spanning a river, 'hog—tied' her with duct tape and electrical wire, and threw her off a bridge alive and conscious. She drowned."

"In Alabama, two 17—year—olds, one 16—year—old, and one 19—year—old picked up a female hitchhiker, threw bottles at her, and kicked and stomped her for approximately 30 minutes until she died. They then sexually assaulted her lifeless body and, when they were finished, threw her body off a cliff. They later returned to the crime scene to mutilate her corpse."

In these cases, the problem is not impulse control but evil. I hope the courts never forget that evil exists.
> adblocker extensions to abandon Chrome.

Ha. As if that will ever happen. They'll probably just pivot to something else.

The reason Chrome can try to ditch ad blockers is that they are big enough, that your only choice is Chrome or GTFO.
It would be super funny if there was a website where people could gamble on “pick a number between X and N”

And where N was differing ranges such that you ccould gamble in the pick a number between 1-10

Or go to a diff room when N was between 1-100, and others like 1-1000 etc

And the anti was diff for each and the payoff diff based on paying out from the antis (i dont. Know how to spell anti)
There is a panic regarding having children 'ready' for the future-- and having kids be proficient in 'future' technologies/ needs. We in tech drive this, actually, as salaries in the area outpace other salaries. That pushes technology into the classroom, which is not the same as thoughtful uses of well-tooled technology that aids students.
Do you have a similar opinion in regards to crimes? Do you think that there will be less crime if there are harsher prison sentences? Are you in favor of mandatory minimum sentences?

If not, why do you think harsher punishments are needed here but not for crimes?

FLOWER CO. (YC W19) | 1st Product Designer | FT in Los Angeles | https://flowercompany.com

FLOWER CO. is a wholesale cannabis membership club that saves consumers 40% on their favorite products and brands. We are hiring our first Product Designer!

The California cannabis market is $10 billion dollars of which $8 billion is still illicit. With taxes as high as 40%+ in cities like Los Angeles, consumers have little reason to participate in the regulated market. We seek to change this. Thanks to our membership program, scheduled delivery model (not on-demand), and our access to Humboldt County supply, we beat the illicit market on price.

Apply here: https://angel.co/flower-company

PS: Veterans and YC founders both get free lifetime memberships ($119/year normally!).
ROI is insane. If you made 20% a year on Wall Street, you are crushing it. You can make 20% a month in sports gambling with a fairly pedestrian strategy.

The only issue is that you can't scale well but this only becomes an issue when you need to put down tens of million a week (i.e. when you have $50m+).

The barriers to entry are also getting higher as competition is increasing in the space (although limits are probably going up too). One big issue right now is data. If you bet on soccer (the sport with the highest limits), you need to spend at least $100-200k/year (before hiring programmers) on data to become competitive.
A three-phase circuit consists of three single-phase circuits that share a neutral wire (which, ideally, carries no net current).

Do you happen to have a source? I am having trouble finding a source online for this information.
It's a good option for embedded, especially low resource embedded, applications. Provides a nicer set of abstractions than assembler and let's you create basically a tuned DSL for your problem. That said, development doesn't scale particularly well, multi-member dev teams are hard, and maintenance of someone else's code can be, shall we say, challenging.

I always wondered how Sun and Apple addressed this, as they used forth in the form of OpenBootPROM as a boot environment on various platforms. Very, very nice.
I feel that one could teach a fairly complete CS class with a piece of chalk and a chalkboard.
And... Shouldn't they have heavy backpacks for you know health?
This is pretty funny because I got an Amazon Basics Keyboard a few years ago and remembered thinking "This isn't half bad. Pretty dang good for the price." and bought 3 more for backup.
I agree, it is for sure harder to reverse, on the other side without releasing the source, it is also much easier to hide in and keep secret vulnerabilities and or zero-days.
I'd pile on to this sentiment with noticing that many kids who do read these days are not progression past YA fiction in their discretionary reading options.
The 405 is what 6 lanes in each direction now? How much extra value do you get by ruining nearby neighborhoods? I'm not saying people shouldn't deal with the change, just that it should be looked at before writing off people that have been living there for decades.
Most of human behavior boils down to the same. You can simplify it even further as "doing things to avoid discomfort".
Some pros:

Bereavement. It won’t be for everyone, but perhaps some people who have lost loved ones might like to feel that they are still alive by bringing them into modern day videos.

Fantasies. You hear about how some people like to live out fantasy lives in video games. I heard one about a severely disabled teen or young man who gets to be a big strapping strongman in his favorite video game. Imagine an old lady who can create a video of herself at age 25 free soloing El Capitan by deepfaking herself into an Alex Honnold video.

It takes up space in the boat, it requires labor to extract the ice. If you're buying 10 times the boat and 10 times the labor the price is going to have to support it.

Mozilla abandoning their much more powerful XUL-based extension system for Chrome's inferior WebExtensions wasn't already an indicator towards that?
Author said the fridge was 10 years old - it should have a fan on the bottom coils - but if the coils are on the back, then that'll take more than one PC fan (I'm not even sure what you could use - maybe a couple of box fans?).

Also - for everyone else - be sure to keep your coils clean (there's a special brush you can buy that looks like an oversized q-tip mated with a pipe cleaner), and make sure there is proper space on the top/sides/rear of the fridge for proper airflow (usually 3-6 inches of room - varies based on the fridge, and sides - some sides need more room than others, usually back side and top need 6-8 inches of room or thereabout; sides less).
My mother, a school teacher, describes herself and her coworkers as being enthusiastic about more ipads and laptops in the classroom. But the reasons she gives seem suspect to me. I believe that many teachers are supportive of this deployment of tech because of the sedative properties. Give the hyper kids an ipad and suddenly they sit still and stop running circles around their 65 year old teachers.

She says that I'm not wrong per se but that it's still a good thing overall for the kids. I think they should just let the kids run around outside instead (7th and 8th grade have no recess in her district, and PE is only one or two days a week...)

Fullstack mid-senior level developer. I can also jump in as dedicated front/backend developer, though my strong suit is backend in that scenario. I'm also a pro at configuring servers including database setup, nginx configuration, and I've managed sentry and jenkins instances as well as configured terraform and docker builds.

I love learning new technologies (right now I'm learning Rust).

I can also consult on topics like: choosing a stack for your startup, how to build your MVP the fastest for the least amount of $$, or sourcing different api's and tools for your business..

I've been CTO for a couple startups and have lead a small team for a mobile app startup and dealt with making decisions on how the app was built, and setting up their CI/CD pipelines.
Completely agree. Made in China is not for me anymore.
