(In my experience) in SF for programmers as long as you're there for standard / scheduled meetings you can come and go as you need. But that won't be as true for other locations or jobs that are less in demand
In theory (no pun intended) yes.

In practice this is not done. Perhaps never done. I know of only one toy example that you could maybe extend to do this. TLA+ is meant to double-check design level questions and intuitions rather than code level or implementation level ones. That is it attempts to give guidance on whether a design is flawed rather than whether an implementation successfully follows a specified design.

This may sound limiting, but the fact that this is an artifact completely separate from code makes TLA+ much more attractive from a business risk perspective in my opinion.

And you really believe that?
> Shor factoring for RSA works by period finding, which is all modern PK crypto discrete log. Read the wiki page.

But is it not the case that the original Shor algorithm was specifically about using periodicity for integer factorisation (and the wiki page for "RSA problem"[1] also refers to integer factorisation, not discrete log).

> It is certain that it cannot crack certain (most) problems any faster than a classical computer.

Yes, I was already well-aware of that. My point was that the overwhelming majority of PK crypto used today depends on the hardness of problems that are exponentially accelerated by QC algorithms.

> NTRU is an IEEE standard, and is in wolfSSL, which is on many platforms.

Okay, maybe then it has some non-academic use. But the overwhelming majority of PK crypto in use today (TLS, PGP, the vast majority of E2EE systems) is not secure against quantum attackers. Can we agree on that at least?

Interview with Scott Hunter on .NET Core 3.0
> There are myriad tools designed for these people though, and they all chose the simplest (and wrong) solutions to the problem: progress is SLOC added and bug reports clsoed per day.

Is the SLOC counting still a thing nowadays, though? I've worked at companies ranging from 4-person startups to an old worldwide behemoth (all in the EU, though) and nobody even tracked SLOC, let alone evaluate developers on that; all the dumb metrics came from the issue tracker. Though I have the impression your real evaluation is based on how well you work with others, assuming you clear a low technical competence bar.
On the other hand many people expect Wikipedia to be the first hit on lots of topics.

Yes and no. LGTM is about known vulnerabilities. It doesn't (currently) use artificial intelligence to discover new vulnerabilities, but it allows writing complicated yet efficient patterns for vulnerabilities found by human intelligence.

So it's more advanced than simple "know bad dependencies", but it's also not quite "new vulnerabilities".

In Italy Journalist is a professional certification, with a selective state exam (I know it is unthinkable in the cultural context of the US) and the possibility of losing it if you violate certain professional values.

In this sense, let's look at Boris Johnson. I consider (ethically speaking) his lies as columnist worse than his lies as a politician. Because as a published journalist you hide behind decades of reputation of your news agency.

We have a generation of young people that essentially live in a clown world [1] where nothing make sense anymore. While I respect the professional behavior Obama had, populism is needed as a balancing force (that needs not to go out of bounds).

This makes sense in a way, but also seems like it has bad incentives for developers.
I was watching a ripped Spiderman years ago on my PS3 and the PlayStation refused to play it after 10 mins with an antipiracy message. This was via a network video server. Don't see why Sony would have rolled back that feature since.
The problem comes when the terms spread enough that miscommunication happens. When someone says "Bob is a neo-nazi" meaning "right wing", but the person they are talking to hears "wants to kill jews and blacks and gays". And then Bob gets lynched/ostracized/fired.

When the meaning of a word isn't likely to have a big impact on people's lives we can be a bit more forgiving (though personally I still want to move towards a clearer thinking population).
By the way 100k may seems a lot, but not in Switzerland where the median salary is at 80k$ per year. It means that if you are in a senior position you will make easily more than 100k...

Consider that even the most trivial thing that makes Apple look bad gets leaked. If Apple was selling your private information, it would have leaked long before now. Also their financial reports show no indication of revenues that could be associated with private information marketing.

You need both. You cant solve more complex problem if you are deriving quadratic formula from first principles each time. You need to "see" it quickly in order to recognize it in more complex situation. Complex problems are composed of simple problems and if simple problems are something you are figuring out each time, you got problem.

Obviously, there is also such a thing as too much repetition. But understanding of how it works alone and being able to prove the formula is not enough for ability to solve problems.

A citation for my believes?

Unfortunately freedom of information has come under attack in the US as well lately, so yes, the rise of some circles is no surprise or contradiction. Unfortunately that aligns fascist groups with people that see value in these freedoms. Although to those it is mostly no secret that fascists are just temporary passengers with other ambitions.

Fascism needs the antagonist, it is an essential piece of the puzzle. Only through that people are able to strip their conscience, elevate themselves above others and commit atrocities against people they see as threats. It is their personal victim role.

"White supremacy" was a laughing stock 10 years ago. And I mean really a laughing stock. Their last hope was to sweep up some anime weaboos that didn't really buy into it in any significant number, but it was their goto strategy to groom these groups in hope someone a litte too full of himself would randomly condemn them as the root of evil or just plainly associate them with facsism.

You can fight fascism with giving people more freedoms and more access to information. That collapses their victim narrative and has the positive side effect from the measures itself. Censoring a book, banning people perceived to align with fascism, or pointing out moral imperatives doesn't achieve anything. On the contrary and I believe this behavior to be a main factor to current developments.

But since the US has basic and fundamental protections to freedom of speech and against overreaching government, it is in a far better state compared to Germany, which is partly on the road to make the same mistakes again.

(UK) my new Virgin media cable box came with a hdmi cable that said "hdmi with ethernet" on the side. It's plugged into my TV (which has WiFi disabled) and as far as I can tell it's not leaking a gateway or anything but it could well be. Regardless: security nightmare.
You're looking at the wrong thing. The new fascism won't be as the old fascism. He will introduce himself as the anti-fascism.
I think is must be possible to shutdown the smart TV OS and watch your TV box with Libreelec via HDMI instead.
People seem to generally have very positive comments on DataDog - maybe it's me but I've generally found it frustrating. The sampling and retention rates for tracing mean I rarely see the errors that actually matter. I dislike not having an actual date/time picker in the APM section too.

Either way, I've had a worse experience with Cisco products so good for them saying no.

Honoring a DMCA takedown isn’t ever required, but ignoring one strips away the safe harbor protections for that specific content. This in turn makes you liable for any copyright infringement of that content as if you had published it yourself. If it’s legitimate, you’ll presumably win the court case and quite possibly get your attorney fees back.
I'd say that normally you have to go out of the way to not be compliant.

The Annihilation Score is a pretty good skewering of modern bureaucracy; we've borrowed a lot of terminology from the Americans and imported a lot of their corporate thinking, so it makes sense that the tone shifts. And again, that book is a Mo book, and she's American.
The parent's point wasn't about CLI vs. GUI so much as different ways to present and design programs. Most people these days write software in an editing environment that's much richer than the TTY.
I believe the parent isn't disagreeing with you.

Breaking down the parent's post:

"""
What's funny about this is that I think this is a legitimate and relatively non-evil use case.
"""
- parent is saying that fingerprinting so the advertisers know who saw the ads is legitimate and relatively non-evil.

It all comes down to lack of transparency/oversight and the option to exercise control as an individual.

- parent acknowledges that not telling the user and not making it configurable can be problematic.

So that’s a test with a sample size of 3. You can not conclude anything meaningful from this. Med creeds aside, if you have any research creeds you’d know this isn’t particularly powerful.

I have a 2nd cousin that is a fantastic doctor. I also happen to be a doctor, like a bunch of others around here. Not to insult your brother in any way, but I’ve never heard of him until now.
Also looking on Scopus, while he may be doing great things in the service of the VA, he does not seem to be a researcher.

Edit: also why do you think making a generalization shitting on “the doctors” that “don’t give a crap” to just follow up with an appeal to your brother “the doctor” strengthens what you’re saying in any way? I can assure you most pediatricians do give a crap (appealing to my own years of working with many), and if yours doesn’t I encourage you to find a new one.

TLA+ is a formal language for specifying a state machine and properties it may satisfy (e.g. eventually/never reaches a given state). Since many systems, from simple algorithms to entire distributed systems, can be thought of as state machines, TLA+ serves as a useful formal design language for documenting them and the expected behavior they should follow. On top of this, the TLA+ ecosystem comes with tools to verify that your proposed design indeed satisfies the properties you have written, increasing confidence that your design is sound and doesn't have weird corner cases you haven't thought about.
I think it's perfectly fair to say "this took me an hour", but statements like this always come with history. Dude probably spent at least hundreds of hours getting proficient at programming, app design and iOS development specifically.

Seems pretty clear to me, from their FAQ:

On the Fi Flexible plan, video streams at the highest available quality. On the Fi Unlimited plan, video may be streamed at 480p (DVD quality).

It doesn't say anything about less than DVD. So assuming good signal strength/infrastructure you'll likely get better than DVD for 22GB then "only" DVD after.

And I didn't need to read pro-atheism propaganda to know that atheism was bad. Thankfully, at some point my "question everything" principles eventually lead to me investigating that.

It seems to be extremly impolite to put anything into the vending machine bins but the bottles you bought from that exact machine though. My Japanese friends were visibly uncomfortable at the idea. Same for any convenience store bins - only what you bought there is fine.
Hey, you said you don't use it for your work? Is there a specific reason for that or you just don't have the need for it in your office?
Meh, I don't buy it. A colleague had his phone put in the plane's hold by airport security without being allowed to turn it off. Landed with a whole bunch of "Welcome to <country>!" texts. So not only can you get non-zero reception in flight (maybe only on lower flight levels?), but also it clearly doesn't bother the plane or cause phones to explode (else airport security wouldn't do it).
i would assume: the different parts of the architecture are independent, and each addresses a completely distinct non-overlapping responsibility. i.e. you can add or remove or adjust each part without interactions between parts
But the problem is that we spend ~9 years on those drills which is more time than a typical engineering student spend on algebra and above. How come we can teach so much higher math in such a short amount of time? It is not possible from scratch, the reason we can do it is because some bored students played around with the drills instead of just doing them and thus learned a lot of related concepts which are cached in on in later years.

The losers are those who just spent years learning how to do the drills, getting good grades but didn't learn anything worthwhile at all. It would be good if we could catch those and correct their behavior before they had wasted 9 years on it, but as is we don't notice that most students fail to learn anything before we test them on more interesting problems in high-school.

Note: I am not saying that we shouldn't teach arithmetic, on the contrary I'd argue that arithmetic is one of the most important things to learn in math since everything else is built on top of that intuition. We just have to realize that we practice arithmetic to build intuition and not to become a human calculator.
I appreciate your perspective.

Why should teenagers receive federally subsidized loans in the tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars—not dischargable even in bankruptcy—to receive such a degree? How is that a wise financial decision for a normal person rather than merely an amusing hobby for the hereditary rich?
You have a point. I once talked myself into a pretty racist view and have been struggling ever since to get out. :(
Though it may take some time, a counter-notice reinstating the content is supposed to be just as automatic as a takedown removing it. Presumably, failure to do so has similar risks to the ISP of their customer suing them for a DMCA violation.

That’s pretty bad, you could end up with two countries claiming you are fiscally resident in their country at the same time.

France has actually considered taxing French citizens abroad like the US. It comes regularly during presidential campaigns. I think the last serious attempt was Hollande. They backed down because it would require to renegotiate every tax treaty and they didn’t want to open that door.

It doesn’t break the law. It just means if the content was in fact infringing then the ISP is also guilty of copyright violation.

They simply lose the safe harbor protection. So if they are sure it’s a false claim they can just ignore it.
Corporatism actually refers to the government, businesses, unions, church, and other institutions (the exact institutions included varying between forms of corporatism) working together as parts of a body; it is not derived from the use of “corporation” for a business entity.
everyone here is insinuating that the transmission of HPV is through cunnilingus in this context

Ask yourself, why are you missing this context or being intentionally obtuse? you aren’t smarter or deemed as smarter for pointing out the obvious that other transmission methods are possible, everyone already knows that and is still enjoying these euphemisms because of their relatable conscious decision to give head.

I write a bash script or two every month so I thought I'm okay. But then came along the very first example:

trim_string() {

: "${_%"${_##*[![:space:]]}"}"
printf '%s\n' "$_"
}

Ok, so the : is somehow a temporary variable...
Then there is a variable starting at $ and you lost me :D

What I've seen generally is that teachers and homework teach how to do something, then reinforce that through endless dull repetition, instead of teaching the 'why', which would massively reduce the amount of reinforcement needed.

I gues the issue is that a lot of the time the teacher doesn't properly understand the subject.

I do understand the annoyance. The $100k exclusion, as others have mentioned, is not a "ridiculous amount", it's all relative to where you live and how much you earn.

You might also think it is "ridiculous" because you only earn money from a paycheck (e.g. you are an employee). For the self-employed things look very different: your revenue might easily be $200k, while your actual income is half that. Your foreign business pays taxes on income, but claiming the same deductions in the US might be difficult or impossible, so you might end up paying taxes on your $200k of revenue.

More importantly, though, the amount of paperwork that the US requires (FATCA and FBAR reporting) is ridiculous. And preparing your US taxes if you are an expat is a minefield, there is no way you can do it yourself. You need help from experienced tax accountants. All in all, it is a significant burden.
