Yes, the truth is if teachers worked their contractual hours schools would fall apart; and teachers will emphasize this point as protest!

Not sure I understand your logic. EV vehicles account for just over 2% of US vehicles sales in 2018. Globally it'd be more but still minuscule compared to ICE ones. The competition is getting fierce, but they compete for a bigger and bigger cake. If anything there are nowhere to go but up.

Tesla is the leader, not a follower in the segment. They have advantage of manufacturing, charging network, battery, software, and last but definitely not least their brand. If anything some laggards will lose out, for example Chrysler or Mazda.

Tesla booked about 110,000 orders this past quarter. That's a very healthy demand. [0]

Dropbox has slowly but surely gone from a product I enjoyed and recommended to one that I actively dislike using. I find it pretty astonishing that such a mature product:

- Is slow

- Demolishes my MBP's battery

- Has not gotten simpler to use

And worst of all, it is completely out of line with what their competition are charging. They want $12.50-15/mo for their most basic plan when their competition is charging $0-10 for their core feature set.

I wish them well, but once iCloud launches file sharing I'm 100% done with them.
Yeah, the replay is an idea I'd like to implement - just need to work out how to do it easily without going down a rabbit hole..

This title is a clever way of avoiding the stereotypical "Top X books for Y" that always seem to be an affiliate-mill article (anecdotally).
Can you tell me why? Not only can you select from a view, but at least in Postgres you can also insert, update, and delete against one too.

I don't use an ORM. But however you specify a table name in the application code, I imagine just specifying the name of a view instead. The ORM selects, inserts, updates, or deletes with the view as the target, instead of a table. It would not know it was not a table.

I've never known a decent teacher that puts in less than fifty hours per week, and a typical week is more demanding than all but the most stressful weeks I've worked in software.
New teachers are the ones that get the 12hr days. I knew a teacher that told me the early days were hard since he had to develop the lessons and there was a learning curve too but at some point, his days got shorter and it got more enjoyable.
"Democratic" is a duplicitous, ambiguous word:

- to the people, it means a government that is less corrupt and more accountable to do the people's work; a semi-meritocracy.

- in diplomatic circles, it means whatever Americans and their rich owner-class want. There aren't very many democratic countries allowed; they're usually small and don't have a resource curse.
This hit me hard a few weeks ago, and still is.. I've had a few hardware issues and had to (re)install a few times. Limiting access to 3 devices, I'm not sure about upgrading. I don't really need more space, and in fact most of what I really use it for I could get away with a private github/gitlab repo.
I think DPIs might also be used to detect VPNs. I'm not familiar with VPN traffic patterns situation but I doubt that it's too chaotic or masquerades as something else, since VPNs weren't invented with DPI in mind.

Not to imply that GoodbyeDPI assuages all my doubts, either.
Since it's sparked some conversation, I have a foggy recollection of reading somewhere that Paul Graham originally recommended that Meteor be called "Octograph" or something along that line.

Well, this OS in Rust project simply commits the same sins as the standard library by using a custom allocation routine that panics on allocation failure: https://os.phil-opp.com/heap-allocation/#allocations-in-rust

Saying that Rust the language doesn't require a non-failing allocator misses the point--the ergonomics of the language make dealing with allocation failure difficult; sufficiently difficult that none of the projects I've seen actually bother attempting it.

See https://cs.brown.edu/research/pubs/theses/ugrad/2015/light.a..., which explains idiomatic Rust instructs developers to return by value, relying on caller assignment to types like Box (which uses exchange_malloc under the hood), to handle heap allocation. Basically, the strategy for dynamic object management in Rust is predicated on hidden heap allocations.

So of course it's not necessary. But good luck writing an entire operating system otherwise. Even Redox OS doesn't bother trying to fight the language in this regard: https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/slab_allocator/blob/mas...
You get that Dropbox has been desperately trying to turn into an ecosystem for its entire existence, right?
Here's another vote for The E-Myth. I would recommend it to everyone working in any business. For example, if you are considering joining a company, you can use the principles described in the book as a way to evaluate that company. If you are starting something or a business owner trying to grow, it describes accurately the mistakes you might make and a path forward.
You can `docker pull username/mytensorflowcontainer` and start from someone elses' work. Looks like Tensorflow has a how-to on the site: https://www.tensorflow.org/install/docker including working cpu-only and gpu-enabled examples.
Sounds like a utopia. I wish to god the USA would do that.
+1 for freelancing. I never had to deal with any of the bullshit 2 days on-site interview with whiteboard challenge. I don't get the full interview routine because I'm considered "external" and "temporary workforce" ( 6-12 months ). Funny story that I've seen lots of "internals" moving to other gigs in about the same amount of time.

Freelancing gives you the opportunity to do your job, get your money and don't get involved in company policies. As a side-effect you pass interviews and have flexible working hours.
Dropbox uses very sophisticated binary diff nobody else provides to minimize inbound/outbound traffic; this has some CPU/battery cost though. Competitors usually provide very dumb upload/download that might be less CPU/battery intense but much heavier on the bytes transferred. You simply might not be their target group.
And then birds and fish eat the dead zebra mussels and die of heavy metal poisoning.

It's a solution, but it's not a very good one.
I find the fairly recent Smart Sync feature to be really nice, has definitely made many things simpler and more flexible.
Probably other indicators, like the sounds of trucks, smells of gunpowder, etc.
From what I’ve gathered, disenfranchised citizens in Baghdad are protesting, and the government has responded by shutting down the internet. I understand it’s reactionary but what is their logic here?
Steve Jobs was early, but not wrong about Dropbox being a feature and not a product. I just want a folder that syncs extremely reliably, that's it. They've gone down the corporate rabbithole and now call themselves a "smart workspace" whatever that means.
All warfare actions conducted by the United States are excuses for agencies to spend money, and the money goes to corporations that are contolled by politically connected individuals. The dividends from the government consumption of these items enrich the people who are giving the orders to launch the missiles.

It is beyond disheartening that innocent people die because of this. I would rather just pay the money, if I must, and let the warheads rust in peace.

I wouldn't say 100% committed. VAG sells 10,000,000+ cars/year worldwide, so if they sell 100,000+ etron/Taycan/egolfs/etc this year, then they're maybe 1% committed. Hopefully the ID.3/4 will improve that, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Back in 2010, Audi said they would produce the etron by the end of 2012, which apparently is German for 2018. ;)

Dropbox is still an insanely awesome product, and one of the few that I actually pay for and use on a daily basis -- it is a lifeline for my business!
This is cute.
So Bing, then.
Reminder that DropBox now uses a background web server instead of a native interface for their bare minimum client.
And then the random client limit to 3. I've stopped using them since then.
ITT we're complaining about "overclassification" and other sins of USA's unsupervised services. (I hadn't been familiar with the atrocities in Indonesia linked by TFA...) We're not sure what you're on about. Do you mean that China and other nations have not respected human rights? We all agree. What else do you intend to say? Do you really think that "US journalists evangelize Snowden and Assange"? If that were the case, surely a name-brand media firm like WaPo, NYT, MSNBC, FoxNews, CNN, etc. would have published such evangelizing in the last several years, but they haven't. Some smaller firms do mention them, but I note that TFA doesn't. Why have you introduced this red herring?

I tend to dislike ideas that move away from the most generalized platform, but it's not that this doesn't work sometimes.

If someone says "hey, there's this app to find a dog walker, and there's this app to find a gardener, and another to find a handyman, why not just make an app where people can select their proficiencies and set an hourly rate." I tend to prefer those ideas, as compared to someone saying "well I'm going to make an app that's like Amazon but instead we just sell healing crystals."

So your application is basically just Facebook Events, or Meetup, or Eventbrite, but for women who are over 50. You're moving away from the generalized platform in favor of specificity. Sometimes that just works, but it usually doesn't. The only way I think products like that can succeed is if

a.) the generalized/abstract platform is simply too abstract for people to even know that it services the specific use-case that a more honed application addresses directly. An example for this might be that even though someone could use an abstract platform like notion.so in order to keep track of their favorite wines/add pictures/notes/comments, the platform is so generalized that they simply are unaware of that potential use case. A wine app that lets you keep track of wine with pictures and comments may be exactly what this person needs.

b.) the generalized platform either contains too many unrelated features to this specific use case, and is bloated because of it, or it is unable to put in features specific to this use case because they are not generalizable enough to the rest of the platform. An example like this might be that Amazon has prime, grocery shopping, too many filters and wishlists etc, to the point that the "healing crystal" shopping application might benefit from simply discarding the bloat. Or to the other point, a house-plant shopping application might have additional filter criteria very specific to temperature/humidity/location tolerances etc, to such a degree of specificity that this criteria would simply not make sense to include in a platform like Amazon.

I think in your case, "b" is not a factor at all. The overlap between requirements for your application and any event-hosting application would be almost identical. So what you're essentially after is "a," where it would not even occur to enough women over 50 to use Meetup in order to arrange the kinds of events you're describing. And because of this, there is no network in place on the platform for that particular demographic. Whether or not this is the case, or your platform services a real need that exists but for the lack of a more specific platform, I have no idea. Best of luck to you, though.
How much authority do they have on private property? If I buy a farm who has the authority to stop me from driving remote control or autonomous cars on that farm? If i make that farm accessible to the public to buy my vegetables how does that change?

Uh...TOAST is a system for storing data off page. It doesn't have anything to do with compression? Reading a TOAST actually requires reading two pages, so you're correct that there is read and write overhead. But it isn't CPU bound a la compressing the data.
Interest compounds geometrically and wages grow linearly. It’s not advanced math to realize the end state of usury is a rent-seeking class that owns basically everything, at least until the political unrest gets to the hot stage.

Historically, intelligent elites have permitted safety valves like bankruptcy and even jubilees. While this does reduce the nominal wealth of the owner class, it has no actual effect on their real wealth since they still own plenty of real assets that can be used to start the next round of interest based rent-seeking. Unfortunately our present day elites present us with evidence that they plan to run the system into the ground and then escape to five star bunkers in a New Zealand. I guess we’ll see how that works out.
That's a good point. Really, you could just say that they have a seasonal part time job, but when they do it they are paid like professionals.

This might not be a problem if there were another part time job that really worked well for getting paid in the other months, but that seems difficult.
I've always wanted to be a teacher, still do. But their job is like 10x harder than mine and pays 1/10th the price, so as much as I'd enjoy it and I think I'd be good at it, it just seems insane.

Good thing there's always a budget to build newer fancier schools, but not to pay teachers livable wages, cause that makes sense.
Which may be a feature that belongs in the bygone era of lower network speeds and bandwidth limits.
Facebook seems to do this also.
People don't need lipstick, lickstick is superfluous.

I've never needed a straw while drinking and I facial hair, but I guess personal anecdotes are useless, and cleaning your face occasionally with a napkin(or a sleeve) is... forbidden?

As for the elderly, if your health requires you to use a straw why are you relying on someone else to meet your needs? You should provide your own straws if drinking without a straw is a health concern, right? Someone with a peanut allergy shouldn't rely on the restaurant to have an epi-pin.
My main issue with Dropbox is that the UI got lighter but not more useful, and I found some anti-patterns trying to share something with my friends without them being signed in dropbox.

> $40-50k is not enough money to live on, in most places.

But it's not just the pay. They get very nice benefits too.

Yes, it's not a luxurious job but it's a good middle-class job. All workers cry poverty when it comes to pay but for the most part U.S. teachers don't fall in that track.
As well they should, for a couple of reasons.

1. Legally, just because you're a licensed driver does not mean you've been licensed to remote-operate a car, while standing on the sideline, in a pedestrian-heavy environment, where your line of sight, and your vehicle's path of travel is obstructed by hazards.

2. Teslas seem incapable of reliable collision avoidance, so you can't just expect your car to do the right thing.
The initial government was pro-American, but the consequence of pushing a country to have democratic elections is that they sometimes elect people that you don't like.

When you want a country to be free and democratic, you can't also tell them who to elect. You have to choose one or the other. The United States has often chosen the latter while pretending to want the former, but at least with Iraq they seem to be mostly hands off (in recent years).
I typically hear the categories as feature, product, platform (aka ecosystem). Apple is a platform/ecosystem. Dropbox is a feature/product, but definitely not a platform.

In SV, "just a feature" has a derogatory connotation, sort of like "lifestyle business". It causes people who run feature companies to try to get away from this characterization – even if it means stretching their business into something that it cannot easily become. This is especially true for features that have no moat, and which would therefore be Sherlocked [1] by companies like Apple.

Amazing tutorial, and really exciting for RISC-V. I hope he creates a patreon or some other donation platform, as it must take some time to write this up. I'm sure some people would be willing to send a bit his way.
A key idea of this language is that you _don't_ give up control over your data structures. You program your algorithm against abstract data structures, as in most high-performance DSLs, but then you _explicitly control_ the implementation of those abstract data structures as physical hierarchical structures. (You can get a taste for this in the `layout` block in Fig. 1.)
You can't get users for a product no one can buy. Calling it a conspiracy was largely a gag, but if anything it was a conspiracy of dunces.

Verizon refusing to sell and refusing to allow on their network the Lumia 950 because of a hissy fit that they didn't like how the previous flagship performed and that Microsoft got an almost favorable AT&T deal for the 950 was dumb on several levels.

AT&T getting bored with their 950 deal and then refusing to advertise/market/sell the phone, was certainly a death nail, partly because it was so much easier and cheaper to just micro-manage the Android platform.

It might not have killed the platform in the US if there were more than one phone manufacturer in Windows Phone at that point in time.

(That calls into question if the Nokia buy out was the right move. Which with Nokia last one standing already, it was probably the only move, but the platform had enough market share before Nokia was at risk of tanking that had a couple Android manufacturers gotten fed up with Google at the time things could have gone differently. Though admittedly, armchair quarterbacking is easier with hindsight.)

The app situation was always something that could have been addressed if people were (capable of) buying the platform. The lack of OEM manufacturers and the lack of support/interest from the carriers certainly mattered more than apps at crashing marketshare of the platform below the critical threshold for active application development.

I want to own my content as much as possible. Tech startups like Medium seem to have a habit of silently changing TOS and eroding my rights.

Jekyll / Wordpress are not THAT hard to use, and there’s a lot of free options these days.

If you care about your publication I fee it behooves you to learn a system that you have under your control - not opt into a pseudo social media site like medium. (Face it, they’re going to end up a “blogging as social media” platform)
Can confirm that the Southern sky is great from my time in South Africa. We had a nicer view of the milky way during many braais in a small town backyard than I have seen in the Northern hemisphere (including back country camping in Yellowstone National Park). The combination of high elevation, dry air and little light pollution is great.
> What a lot of people don't understand is that you want it both.

Of course I want both. I also want a car that requires zero fuel, can go super fast, has great safety features, and is less than $100. Life is about trade offs and you have to make them for specific reasons.

People trade off using Redis vs Postgres for different workloads intentionally. They aren't meant to be used for the same workloads and are _not_ interchangeable.

Your comparison (and article) is worthless and, in fact, hurts more than it helps.

Why "freedom"? Is it the name of a political party?
More like competition, including open source solutions, has reached a point where Dropbox is becoming obsolete.
This is very an ignorant, biased and misleading article.

1) Not every educator is a teacher. Teachers are paid the most and have the best organized labor representation, while substitute teachers and T-A's are lucky if they get enough hours to qualify for benefits.

2) Not everyone lives in a rich area of a big city. Smaller communities typically don't have the tax base to pay livable wages. Cost of living maybe less, but the absolute buying power of educators in rural area is next to nil.

Also, here's some anecdotal personal data-points:

- My half sister and her husband are special ed. T-A's. They're on food stamps.

- Talk to elderly homeless, saner people. You'd be surprised how many were teachers or in the education.
