This article seems myopically focused on the status games of colleges.

It doesn't seem like a revelation that private colleges that spend tons of money per student require tons of revenue per student.

I'm sure every private school admission officer wants to admit a class that's great to teach and diverse without ever having to worry about money.

But these private institutions seem to exist for wealthy parents to transform cash into a slightly better stamp on their children's diploma. We already have a better solution to the problem mentioned in this article, which is the public college system which is both affordable and just as good of an education.
Samsung's offer based on Tizen seems to be significantly better. Especially their Samsung Health based ecosystem is way better with watches that actually have working sleep tracking, activity detection, are swim proof and have enough battery life to last through it all.
I don't think an ipad would last 8 years. Some of the existing models will have bulging batteries within 2 years.

Add the water / wet environment, and as a previous poster says - no waterproof/resistant rating.

Put it in a watertight case, and expect to change it within 3 years.
SpO2 is probably what it would take to get me to replace my current Series 4. Everything shown today (what little there was) was a "nice to have", making it a "if you skipped an upgrade cycle or two" device to me. (For contrast, Series 3->Series 4 was a big enough jump to buy a new watch a year later.)

That ceramic case is tempting, though.
Porting a python 2 project to Julia/Haskell/Prolog is rewriting the entire codebase. Porting py2 to py3 is a little more than a few men-month of work. In my company we have >2 million line of py2 code and we spent a few weeks converting all to py3 (biggest problems being str/unicode and None comparison) and less than a month later our prod runs py3.

I don't want to come off condescending, I really want to understand your point. But I have no idea what you're trying to say.

Sure, technically py2 and py3 are different languages. So what?
Does it make an automatic emergency call just before it runs out of battery?
All-day, but not necessarily all-night.
For laptops, companies started saying "all-day battery life" around 6.5 hours. It's pretty meaningless.
This is great advice in general, but FU money gets tricky when you have negative interest rates on deck.

We are one stock market pull back away from catastrophe even for wealthy boomers.

Interesting times.
Yeah, I make my own juice as well, though I do flavor mine, usually with fruit or mint flavors.

A 60ml bottle of commercial juice easily costs $15-20.

I buy my nic, PG, and VG from Liquid Barn and my flavors from a variety of sources (though mostly through Nicotine River). My materials cost for 60ml of homemade juice is only around $1.53 per bottle (not including the bottle itself, which you can recycle from commercial juice, or you can buy some, which only costs like $1/bottle). That's one hell of a cost savings!

That's made up of approx $0.33 of nicotine base, $0.09 of PG, $0.33 of VG, and $0.78 of flavoring. I buy PG/VG in 1000ml bottles and flavors I use a lot of in 2oz bottles, so I'm saving a bit by buying in bulk, but it still should only cost around $35 for the ingredients to get started in DIY ejuice - the cost of around 2 bottles of commercial juice. Grab yourself 500ml each of PG/VG, 125ml of nic base, and a handful of flavors and you have enough materials for at least 10 60ml bottles of ejuice (and you'll probably have PG, nic, and flavor leftover, the VG is by far the most used ingredient).
I agree with this sentiment. But then I discovered the Fitbit has a 7 day battery life. That's a game changer.
No idea how Android Wear is doing. I bought a samsung watch expecting it to be Wear OS only to figure out it runs Tizen!
I thought the same, but after I got one, I really haven't minded. To be fair, I've never been able to sleep with a watch on, so putting it on its charger has just reduced the likelihood I forget where I put it down in the morning.
GP isn’t wrong and neither are you. The industry is so fragmented that Big Tobacco owning the 5-10% players means they do own the biggest players.

If it's the same as their previous watches, it certainly works "all day" if you sleep more than three hours a day.

I wondered about this too, in general I think the article misses that updating state is the key to "causing" effects. Rather than latching onto the callback model to explicitly "run" effects.

Though I'll admit getting the relationship of state and effects caused by changes to that state can be more difficult to work out mentally, I think it results in a more complete understanding of what a component actually does.
You can stream Apple Music over WiFi/cellular without the phone. Not sure if that will include Spotify at some point but I do know the new watchOS has opened up a lot of those APIs.
It's compatible with 1st Gen Apple Pencil which charges through Lightning... so lightning I guess.

Disappointing though :/
They started with Ada's syntax and tacked on strange things that do not fit in, e.g., the ".all" in use clauses.
It doesn't have enough battery life to last through the night if you've worn it all day. They probably intentionally don't have sleep tracking to avoid emphasizing that.
>The company collects all the rewards

Erm, no they don't. I personally collect all of the rewards from it. I have a nice fat account of AmEx MRs
(and plenty of hotel and airline points) thanks to all of my corporate card spend.

edit: I have no idea why this is being downvoted. Do you want me to show you a screenshot of my MR account as proof, or something? AmEx corporate cards absolutely give the card rewards to the employee, not the company.

I don't know if that's a good idea for them financially.

Right now the Apple Watch is the only thing keeping me from switching away from the iPhone.

If I could pair an Apple Watch with the Razer Phone 2, I would be so happy and never look back. And the problem will only get worse the next 5 years as folding screens come out for the very high end market.
Exactly. We want the watch instead of the phone, not in addition to. And I’d like them both to use the same account and number. Why don’t these companies get it? They’ll probably shut down the divisions and say “nobody wanted wearables” despite never having unchained them as consumers desire.
How is flavor the #1 reason for use? I don't get how they determined that.
iPhone 11 Pro
Awesome congratulations. We are trying right now for kids...

Has the prospect changed your outlook on where to live or the challenges / benefits thereof?
I come in on the weekends sometimes, because I'm bored or lonely or have work that needs to be done. I get paid for the privilege and I love my job, and it means I never have to stay past 5 during the week. Granted I work in academia where the norm is to stay till 8:00 and weekend work is necessitated by the projects we work on, but I personally don't have to. If I had a family things would be different though.
The safety net that exist right now require waiting time, a lot of hoop and paperwork to get approved.
Yes, the GUI is the hard part it seems. I was hoping there was a solution that made it a bit easier to manage rather than checking the status of a dozen systemd units running and starting/stopping them or adding short lived scripts to cron or running them a single time.
We definitely should, although probably from a completely different perspective than ‘94: High end phones can capture in 3D, so we should be able to store and view 3D images properly.

I’m starting with the idea of PNGs where the channels represent RGBZ instead of RGBA, but obviously we need more than 8 bits of depth information, and we are starting to get and care about high dynamic range for RGB data as well… would 16R:16G:16B:16Z work?

There’s also the point that depth information will have sharp boundaries, and it will probably be much worse for RGB information to blur over such a boundary as compared with the equivalent parts of a flat JPEG.
No they won't, unless the storage issue is solved.

I don't like this idea of "free car rides" at all, I believe it would actually make things worse.

There is a cost vs. convenience trade off between public transport and cars, i. e. public transport is much cheaper, but you have to walk the last mile. Making cars as cheap as public transport would destroy the incentive to use public transport and most people would switch to car travel instead. Also, as others have pointed out, cars are parked most of the time (like 95% of the day), so replacing 5 cars with 1 taxi is unlikely to lead to a reduction, combined with the new incentive (see above) to use cars instead of bikes, buses, trains, etc., most of the problems involved would actually get worse.
I got a Fitbit for this reason but I've been incredibly dissatisfied with the quality. I'm now on my 3rd device in ~6 months. First one stopped taking a charge, second the screen went out. Hopefully the 3rd time is the charm

who cares if they didn't know on the way? I'm not proposing it be illegal to stay upon learning Epstein is there, but similarily most of us don't understand why you would want to stay? most of us would go home and feel disturbed for the rest of the day.

if you are at a party, and some partypooper is present, do you actually stay?
Why would it do that?
Thanks for really great advice.

I loved doing what I am doing and still do and I think I am somewhat good at it.

But doing job sucked me. The job is really dreadful and I do not want to do more. All the fun is over in my job and my boss and other people do not value or care any work I am doing(big company) they do not take any suggestions and do not take work seriously.

My boss do not value the work he just want to get rid of issue in front. It's not only this job but it also happen in past.

Now I think why I am making these people rich. I work for them and they do not even care.

I see my situation, I am not financially that good and Independent. Job pays well but will it be safe. There are layoff recently. I am good at what I do and they have dependency but even doing your best you getting layoff even now and in future why you want to do this kind of thing.

You will be never rich making money for others. So I really want to start something my own which can pay off my bills and sustain me.

A point of clarification: Lyft effectively prevents XL drivers from dual-platforming. They "keep you busy"* with regular and shared rides which you're not supposed to turn down. Accepting these rides renders you unavailable for UberXL rides when Lyft has no XL rides to offer.

I would assume sleep tracking would never be a feature. You need to charge your Apple Watch every night, so that's off the limit. I use Fitbit Flex 2 to track my sleep and I wear them both during the day, however during the night only Flex 2 stays on one of my wrists.

Unfortunately Fitbit decided to discontinue the display-less flex 2 and now I'm a bit confused on what to do next.

That sounds like disaster waiting to happen. Just thinking about my skills as an intern vs. my skills now: good luck to that employer when, 3 years down the line, most of the interns and current FTE's have left and the code is unreadable.
The situation hasn't changed, ESR just flat-out never had a good read on Ada. You really cannot take the Jargon file seriously, its author's ignorances are glaring and numerous.

Ada's "elphantine bulk" is smaller than many modern languages, and even some which the Jargon File praises, like Common Lisp. Its inter-process communication and exception handling functionality were relatively forward-thinking at the time and would look familiar to your average Java programmer.
You have my vote. But that'll take realistically a decade or two (or three) because you'd have to build adequate alternative parking spots.

This article promotes Ada as the right language to use for systems programming; a good comparison would include a description of how it compares to other systems programming languages. History of why the DoD chose it in the 1970s, over the languages of the 1970s, doesn't explain why it's the right choice today.

I don't read the comment you're replying to as asking for an article about Rust or any other language. It's interesting to read about Ada, specifically. I would love to see descriptions of what Ada does better than other modern languages for systems programming. "Strong typing" is a feature of many non-C languages, for instance, but types with specific ranges aren't. And the "storage pool" mechanism deserves a more detailed comparison to other memory management approaches.
> I work in a pretty niche industry, where hiring people with specific experience in the tech stack is rare or impossible. So, I see this up-close and personal all the time. Fluid intelligence, an understanding of computer science fundamentals, and a demonstrated history of delivering results trumps specialized experience with the specific technology. Every. Single. Time.

I think that actually helps you look for generic skills and generally good people - if you're guaranteed that your interviewee doesn't have the direct skills your position requires, you look for the generic stuff. I don't know if that translates to other places, who like you said don't need someone smart who can roll with things, but instead a very particular set of skills.

Nicotine doesn't have a long history here? Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, dip, snuff, chew, hookah, all different methods, some with histories hundreds of years old. Vaping is just the modern equivalent.
But it's not a free society. It's not only an Islamic society (a very distinct kind, with scriptural exegesis not lifted from Wikipedia), but an absolute monarchy as well.

From a humanistic standpoint, the assassination was abhorrent. From an international politics and international law standpoint, intolerable. From the standpoint of a recently elevated absolute ruler suppressing dissent, diligent.

As the previous poster said, at least they're paying benefits, even though it's all part of the cover up. From a Western, guilt-based moralist standpoint such benefits can seem like a slap in the face. From a Middle Eastern, honor-based moralist standpoint, it's the decent thing to do, regardless of what precipitated it.
Good. To hell with them.

One more time, with feeling: "The Market Fairy Will Not Solve the Problems of Uber and Lyft"

> Here is the thing about Uber and Lyft (and much of the “sharing economy”).

> They don’t pay the cost of their capital.

> The wages they pay to their drivers are less than the depreciation of the cars and the expense of keeping the drivers fed, housed, and healthy. They pay less than minimum wage in most markets, and, in most markets, that is not enough to pay the costs of a car plus a human.

> These business models are ways of draining capital from the economy and putting them into the hands of a few investors and executives. They prey on desperate people who need money now, even if the money is insufficient to pay their total costs. Drivers are draining their own reserves to get cash now, but, hey, they gotta eat and pay the bills.

They had an ad in the keynote to address your concerns, funnily enough.
The Pillow [0] app does a great job of automatic sleep tracking using Apple Watch sensor data.

Edit: with my Series 4, I wear my watch all day, and charge it when I’m showering/getting ready in the morning and when I eat dinner/relax
in the evening—times when I don’t care to be hyper-connected to notifications, etc. anyway.

This allows me to wear the watch, essentially, 24 hours a day.

My iPad Air 1st gen (that's from six years ago) is still working fine. It got a little sluggish, but iOS 12 made it fast again.
For me, the single biggest problem with Apple Watch is battery life, and they seem to have done nothing to improve it.

Garmin has always-on, reflective screen watches that can last for weeks on a single charge. I shouldn't need to babysit my watch.
Well, you shouldn't impose it on other people by inviting them to meetings outside their designated working hours.

But there's nothing wrong with solo work that involves working late.

> Gates did not immediately respond to questions, submitted through a foundation representative, about why he would need Epstein's help connecting with wealthy people and whether it is typical for his business meetings to include no women.

That was my first thought too: Sir Bill Gates is known by just about anyone in the world, certainly all rich people. He doesn't know them, yet, but of all people in the world, I would expect him to be the last to need someone like Epstein to introduce him.
None of these, including smoking, are possible to ban due to the addictive qualities. But indeed there should be initiatives to wean people off them and reduce the damage they do.
My Apple Watch ( Series 1 ) is still alive and working quite well. It lasts for 8-9 hours if I don't use the heart rate monitor, while doing sports. I think at this point I could say that my Apple Watch is not "all-day" battery life.

This is rad! Is there an existing way to show adult content? Looks like the backend needs to click "I'm over 18" button.
Clearly this means they don't intend Apple Watch to pick up sleep tracking though. My Fitbit needs to last a few days because there's only a couple chances I really take it off to charge.
It isn't perfect, but the Mighty (bemighty.com) is basically an iPod Shuffle that you can download Spotify offline playlists to. It filled that niche for me.
For some context, as noted at top of article we re-posted it with permission since the release of the larger GPT2 model led to a new slate of fearful articles on the topic and this has remained one of the best takes on it. Was not aware it was already upvoted a bunch on HN before though, cool to see.
First, the use of 'innerHTML' is just for the sake of examples and mvdom does not promote one way or another.

Now on the broader discussion between innerHTML vs appendChild (with or without DocumentFragment). There is no real security issue between using one way or the other, as both get processed by the browser anyway.

The issue was more around performance. innerHTML used to be considered a bad pattern because developers did it in for loops on elements attached to the DOM which unnecessarily added a lot of work on the rendering. However, doing repeating appendChild on a document DOM element will create extra browser work as well.

The key is to that to minimize DOM change of elements that are attached to the document, regardless if it is with appendChild or innerHTML. We found that proper use of innerHTML also can dramatically simplify code with no drawbacks. If you need to do some work on the DOM element before adding it to the document, then you can create a DocumentFragment (still with innerHTML) and then work on the DOM element outside of the document before adding the DocumentFragment to the appropriate document element. As we can see, the issue was not to use or not to use innerHTML but rather when to add a blob of content to the document.

Now mvdom is template agnostic, so, one can even use some templating engine like lit-html and get the same benefits than react rendering but without the overhead (i.e., render/re-render black magic)

Note: While innerHTML should be demystified, .innerText should be avoided at all cost, and .textContent should be used.

On the other hand, there are plenty of Reddit comment threads written by (presumably) people which are just the same thing over and over again, or small variations thereof. Usually some sort of reference to a joke or meme but it does happen.
I dunno, I think you might be selling it short. This argument seems to be based on the mathematical continuity of probabilities, which is not something I can recall ever seeing before.
I lowered my expectations, just like you know when I was teenager I wanted to have a ferrari, but when you are 30 current year sedan is quite an achievement compared to 15 year old beat up car I drove when I was a student. The same with projects, I am not inventing or optimizing complicated algorithms and I am OK with that, CRUD apps that have long life are also a challange. Handling people is a challange, which I like because I work with really nice people now. Getting that new feature in a CRUD app from concept to production feels good as well! (I am also not going to work in FANG and I am not going to earn $250k a year)

I had luck with my current employer, ended up in a company that needs me and are greatful for what I do for them. It is a software shop, so I am not a cost for them but an asset. So one thing to note, try to find company where software is their main product. Earlier I was working in a company where software for them was: "those silly kids fooling around", boy that was bad.

Some people say they stopped doing development after work. There is so much stuff to learn that I cannot just let it go. I was mostly Windows person, I learned loads of Linux stuff. I don't do the same stuff I do at work after work. I don't have deadlines, my projects don't have to provide any value, I don't have to open source them. I don't have to learn after work to stay competitive. I am just fooling around just like I want and there is no sprint, no points, no product owners so it feels so much better than what I have to do at work.

I think all those words I used could be summed up by: take it easy, don't take it too serious, have luck.
