I think you misunderstand. We got the 737 Max because of competition from Airbus in the form of the A320neo series - otherwise Boeing would have taken a few more years and made a clean-sheet design.

EDIT: I'm not saying the 737 Max issues are Airbus's fault. I'm saying that the existence of competition is why we ended up with the quick&dirty stopgap solution instead of a better solution further in the future.

> I love what you're saying, but running a normal modern development and deployment cycle on code stored in databases is hell.

Can you be more specific? What exactly are you missing?

As long as you put your code and data into separate schemes and follow good technical practices, it shouldn't be too different from other technologies.

> I mean, in most databases you can't even rename a column without causing an enormous blocking migration.

Changing a column name is just a metadata change, so it shouldn't take too long in Postgres.

> The very basics of developer happiness aren't covered, let alone the harder bits, like versioning stored procedures, switching schema and code when switching to a new git branch, and so on.

Does Tomcat or any other application server version your WAR files for you or does it manage git for you?

You say that they have no class, no style, and no dreams, however you don't really have much to go off to make such definite generalized statements about a whole class of people.

Seems more like you created an emotional image about a group you don't like and this is the conclusion that would produce.

That is an extremely optimistic perspective.

I don't see why you wouldn't. An easy way to see if something is valuable (wealth), take it away from someone and observe their reaction.
Yes! Which is why I'm still wishing someone at Apple wakes up from their busy schedule of making the "Pro" laptops thinner and instead add in some actual pro stuff!
The dominance of San Francisco is mind blowing and flies in the face of the narrative of "decentralizing tech" that I have been hearing over the last decade

Only outside the East Coast and California metro areas.
Middle manager in Germany here, curious about what makes management in the US so successful or distinct - are you able to elaborate?
I did notice that most of my management knowledge seems to originate in the US; very little original thoughts from other areas.
This is about the government, not the people. The Russian government is well known for intervening in the affairs of other ranging from invasion (Georgia, Ukraine), to corruption schemes and funding alt-right organizations.
I wonder if Intel will resort to dirty tricks like last time, when the Athlon64 came out and offered better performance than the equivalent Intel cpus
Why would it need the "support of the FCC"? Congress can pass a law anytime it wants and most likely they'll task the FTC in enforcing it. They could also create a brand new agency if they wanted to.
I'm aware of that. My comment was more about new startups at the time choosing Rails (and getting Ruby with it) with it being the reason why many startups in the list are built with Ruby, rather than an inherent strength of Ruby as a language. Rails did (does?) seem like a superior environment for quickly prototyping and launching web applications, and it's entirely possible nothing has supplanted it. My comment about future unicorns is mainly that Python might be dominant in AI or biotech focused startups, C# might be dominant in AR/VR startups, and more web applications are SPAs built mostly or entirely in JavaScript, so Ruby might have had it's day as people are building early tech in new fields.
As the former CMO of Quest Nutrition, which just sold for $1b, I have many thoughts. I'll have to come back to this.
I‘ve seen some DIY displays like that and you can buy them for mounting to bicycles

What do any of these things have to do with corporations?

It sounds like your gripe is with something else.
What? Click the link and scroll down - it answers this question.

I won't enable you with an answer here, but it is a very interesting answer :)
There's something wrong with capitalism, and radlib journalists are somehow getting dragged all the way into advocating worker ownership without actually realizing it's about the capitalism, not secretly about race.

It seems to me that the real problem is hiring engineers who only know one language and rest on that language choice for their entire career. If you build an organization of engineers with a versatile set of skills then there is no such thing as a wrong language choice.

Mandate the standardization of interfaces rather than languages and you empower all types of developers in your organization.

In general caching systems are volatile and not meant to be used to store data that cannot be afforded to be lost. Of course that doesn't stop clients from storing critical data on there in return for the simple GET/PUT APIs and low latencies.

You can go for more complex caches such as Hazelcast which offers hot restarts by persisting data to disk.
I saw it in action firsthand in NYC. A garbage truck picked up an overflowing trash bin around midnight, and the dome of trash on top fell off and into the street, and the worker did not even break stride. Many well-meaning people took the time to carefully place their trash on the trash that was in a garbage bin, but they may as well have just dropped it on the street directly for all the good it did.

So, you can't have enough data to know if a new treatment works without doing a study with a proper control. You need to control to know if the new treatment works, generally.

But, you are right that sometimes the 'control' portion of a study is halted and the control people are given the treatment if a study seems to be going especially obviously well, on ethical grounds.

It can be some difficult ethical decisions. But whether you have 40 people in the experimental group and no control group, or 40 people in the experimental group and 40 people in a control group, you still only have 40 people in the experimental group.

Not having a control group doesn't somehow get the treatment to all effected people in the world. And it would be unethical to give the experimental treatment to everyone in the world _before you have evidence of it's efficacy_ anyway. It might be ineffective, it might even make the condition _worse_ or have other dangerous side effects in addition to being ineffective. You don't know this until you study it properly. Studying it properly means using proper valid statistical techniques, and may mean having a control group. I think it is unethical to give a treatment to people widely _without_ having done a study with a control. Being a part of a research study can be _dangerous_.

Anyone that participates in a research study, knowing the risks, is providing a valuable service to everyone else that may later benefit from what is discovered, whether they end up in the experimental group or the control group. They are taking on risks of a still experimental treatment to help get knowledge to help others.

I'm not saying it's simple. I'm just saying that it is definitely not as simple as thinking having no control group is somehow more ethical than having a control group, or that it's good idea to widely distribute experimental treatments which haven't yet been properly studied. You will harm people by doing so.
The depth of the 2008 recession was still better overall than the heights of previous decades. Things were down a little only compared to a couple years before.
Just curious are you referring to this?

Is it possible to get any benchmarks or comparisons.
This is the embodiment of "money doesn't buy happiness". If your only life goal is the acquisition of money, then you get stuck once you achieve your goal.
Just means you are responsible for deploying more liquid capital into productive assets. Have fun finding those. If you are creative and a builder, the people who made you what you are were the ones who told you "no," and now there are a lot fewer of those once they think you have money.

Barring a few quality of life things and some freedom, the rest is just symbols and artifacts.

That bit about finding a woman who will love him for who he is inside and not for his money is silly. In case he hasn't noticed, who he is inside is also now richer than croesus as well.

Very simply, the money event was a huge recent peak experience that totally re-based his identity, and until he either recognizes it again as external, or accumulates newer more intense experiences to offset it, he's going to struggle with accepting it and finding a personal equilibrium again. If he wants a partner to validate that he is more than his money, he's starting from a dangerously flawed premise. If he takes responsibility for himself and his identity and doesn't outsource his self worth to a partner/family, he'll be fine.

Otherwise, he should just put up a dating profile that says, "millionaire seeks emotional hostage for codependent death spiral." I'm a fan of Epictetus on that one, who essentially rephrases it so that things are not yours, they are things you relate to. e.g. the family I have, support, love etc, instead of "my family." It's not "my money," because it's not essential to who he is, it's "the money I have."

I'd say if he's looking for someone to complete and validate his essential idea of himself "without the money," he doesn't have a sufficiently complete sense of self yet to share. He'll probably be cooler after 40.

Anyway, good luck to anyone who ends up in this situation. It's rare and a huge distraction from more basic human needs that might have still needed work before the event.

I like to think I would make a very good rich person, but mostly because it sounds like an interesting job.
The way everyone is writing this off as so obvious is annoying. Have you guys never found a bug that in retrospect was glaringly obvious, but all the symptoms looked bizarre until you found what made them all connected? This is a fun story the same way the "500 mile email limit" story is a fun story. Yeah the idea of "your timeout is so low that it times out unless you're sending a very local request, about 500 miles" is obvious and somewhat boring in retrospect too, but that twist is what makes them both fun stories/facts.
I had the same problem with CoM (many do!) but "Guards! Guards!" opened it up for me, and "Small Gods" really opened the flodogates for me. Later I've obsessively listened to the audiobooks, particularly those narrated by Nigel Planer. His Cheerfulness Fairy ("Hogfather") has become a staple in our family to "chase those blues away.."
it's not about the performance or replacing javascript. It's about being able to program the DOM in the same language you use on the backend, whatever that might be.

Blazor is a game changer in my opinion. C# is a sold language and this project solidifies that.
The standard is to have a placebo/control group because then you know for sure if the treatment is responsible for any improvement. Most new treatments either fail or provide a small benefit, however if the treatment is found to be extremely effective the trial is stopped and all participants are given access. As you pointed out, it would be unethical to deny access. This happened recently with two Ebola drugs that were being tested during an outbreak.
Yeah I'm really wondering why it is news that Windows runs on a device that has 2 screens connected. Can anyone who upvoted explain what was interesting about this? Or if you didn't, at least why we need a new version of Windows to do the same as standard Windows already could?
I gotta say, I agree with you and it looks like they're mostly going to get buried and flagged dead soon.

But doesn't this comment just do the same? Like, for a top level comment it is even less about the article.
You should re-read my comment.
Then that comment would've said so, but it hasn't.
I don't understand, are you trying to get people to move to your island, or running some kind of cryptocurrency scam?
Old wives tail from ancient times, before CompuServe:

The first 20% of the effort gets you about 80% of the results. So everything seems exciting. But to that that last 20% of the results requires 80% of the total work.

There is a ton of un-fun, un-glamorous work getting a gazillion device drivers written, for example.
i use a uwp app called x410. havent used it a ton but works pretty well for me.

Also why would that ever happen...
If you think there isn’t a market for a dual screen device, step into a med school or any professional school. Half of my classmates carry around two devices specifically to have a second screen for referencing videos, notes, articles, etc... personally I can’t wait to get the neo. I have a 15” surface book 2 and it’s served me well but I would love a second screen with the same versatility of my sb2.
Somehow your comment reads as if the crashes were Airbus' and not Boeing's fault. Or am I missing something here?
It is the American people that are in crisis, not the corporation. The corporation is doing pretty fine, it's just the profit is not distributed in the best of the interests of the smaller share holders (ordinary people).

Or you could test behaviour, and not code. For example, have a test as part of your app's general test suite - insert a row, read it back and check the generated column value is what you expect.
Actually, his claim was that it shouldn’t be called assault if no force or coercion was used by the older man, and the older man couldn’t be expected to know that his partner was being coerced by someone else.
Define young for us. My first thought is not a toy, but a game, Robo Rally [0]. However, that might be less applicable to young children. They'd have a harder time with it.

There are many algorithms which can be demonstrated with playing cards, but they are not games or toys in themselves, but demonstrations.

Based on the imgur link (which finally loaded), my suggestions are probably not age appropriate.

Wood Gears [1] has some neat contraptions and ideas that may be enjoyable for kids (some more than others). Even things like the solitaire puzzles are algorithim toys [2]. There are many variations of it which scale down to be more appropriate to younger children.

What I'm discovering in my own life is that goals are inherently unsatisfying. What's satisfying is living well, not in terms of a goalpost you've passed but in terms of an undulating way of existing in the world. Goals serve a purpose (heh), but they will never bring you happiness.
Obviously FCC has no direct play into the legislative process, but government agencies always have high-levels of lobbying power. Not mention in this case there are overlapping levels of jurisdiction and philosophical differences between the FTC and FCC.

Significant and impactful legislation needs the support of more than just the House and Senate.
And that's why I described my use case - as each chipset pretty much maps to an Intel generation, two or three different Intel generations doesn't provide a compelling reason to upgrade. Again, Ryzen is different, but that's largely because they've been fighting to gain parity with Intel.
Yes, but increasingly for us we tend to have several "apps" accessing our data: The mobile, desktop and API 'apps' are all different code bases for us.
I'm talking about employee stock options. Google "personaloptioner". When you exercise the options and get stocks you need to pay taxes on the difference between the strike price and the market value, even if you have no possibility to sell the stocks (if the company is private for example).
I remember a story going around about people dying from rat urine on soda cans [1], but the veracity of the claim is questionable.

I know companies who are handing out new MacBook Pros and Airs with 8GB of memory. Now that's the falsest economy I've ever seen.
Plenty of market economies with similar corporate structures to ours have not seen out-of-control healthcare or housing costs, and have seen growing lifespans, etc. Indeed, that's true even within the U.S. In Iowa, housing costs are low and have remained stable, and the homicide rate is similar to Belgium or Canada. Unemployment peaked at under 7% in the recession, and is just 2.5% now. Separately, life expectancy for Asians in the U.S. exceeds that for Asians in countries like Singapore or Japan.

Corporations are more or less the same everywhere, but different places within the U.S. have vastly different housing policies, social challenges, etc. It strains credulity to conclude that corporations are somehow to blame for your laundry list of problems, rather than the specific policies that directly address those issues.
Where I grew up in Sweden, the moose will be pretty much fearless nowadays. Last summer, one was standing not three meters outside my window, staring at me. A few years ago a cow and her calves would stop by the road, and look curiously at us in- and outside the car, while moving nearer, not further away. Not in a threatening way, nota bene. There are also people walking dogs, picking mushrooms, tending to forest and fields, etc.

Still, when hunting season is afoot, they are always somewhere else. I know of one of their hiding places in particular, a small but shielded patch of forest where you can't shoot.

It's not surprising--they are being hunted--but it's not the same behavior as when it's people without guns, outside of hunting season.
