Neither is the contrary suggested. I wouldn't point out something marked as experimental/not for prod use.

Website lists October 14th, 2019 as the article date and quotes a tweet from four days earlier. So I'd assume it's new.
It's the Streisand effect in action.
Insects aside, I realized there was something wrong about blue light much before any articles appeared about its negative effects on our circadian cycles. It was nearly 20 years back when I bought some of the then young blue and white leds to make some experiments with them, and I quickly realized I hated blue ones. No matter how I reduced the current through them, their light made me feel uncomfortable and didn't like as well cold white ones because they emit more blue light than warm white leds. I still have in a drawer those 10 leds I bought, none of them was ever used in any project. Unfortunately lots of gadgets appeared in the early 2k and they all used blue leds which were going to become the standard pretty much everywhere.
It was then when I realized how much and why I disliked that light: it made me nervous; I couldn't stare at a blue led light, especially the bright ones, for some time without feeling anxiety.
Then one day I read about how blue light affects us negatively and went "aha!". Now I mask or paint, or even swap where possible, all blue leds those lazy designers keep sticking into gadgets and appliances.
It is certainly telling you never mentioned the IRS.
This doesn't work for Widevine L1, as L1 is handled in hardware. Windows has some interface to the Intel Management Engine used for this, Android OEMs write drivers and ship devices with keys, other platforms are out of luck.
The bottleneck for writing code is very rarely how fast you can type it.
I've no experience here, but a decent bottle of wine, along with a simple thank you card would almost certainly be appreciated. It might depend how personal of a relationship you have, our will have with this investor though.

I would just say what you did here, you're really appreciate of their confidence in your company and product, and look forward to the future.
Stay focused. Your best gift to your investor would be a good return on investment - a successful product.
Have you tried it google it?
I agree "hi folks" isn't particularly formal, but I wouldn't use "hi guys" to address the c-suite either. "Guys" and "folks" seem similar in formality to me.

I'd probably go with "hi all" for a slightly more formal situation.
The person he killed will never have the ability to get 2 associate degrees, a year and a half of coding courses or a part time IT job, let alone their first kiss, have sex, or any of that stuff. so yeah it's not just a "other than he's..."

The term is "synthesis." You have a synthesis tool which turns your high level (verilog or whatever) hardware description into a netlist of gates and other hardware primitives. That's followed by "implementation," where the netlist is fed through the FPGA layout planner and place-and-route tool to generate a bitstream.
As Sullenberger said in his NYT reply to Langewiesche, blaming the pilots is out of line. I don't see anyone blaming that CHP officer who died in one of those unintentionally accelerated Toyotas because he in his panic didn't think to shut off the engine maybe for fear of losing power steering or most of the brake boost?
I only ever use one input. I love the idea of this TV.

Well, I know that my first reaction ("I'm jealous") might invite criticism. I'm putting it out there relatively raw to see how people react and what they think. Because not knowing drives me even crazier. And it is how I feel (other than gratefulness, sad for the rest of the world and happy for the ex-con).

I appreciate the tip of the O-1 visa and how to potentially get there. And I also appreciate that you state it very clearly that US companies did not choose for this fate either.
For a lot of these companies, they are profitable on a per customer basis, they're paying to acquire more customers.

For example, if it costs you $10 in marketing, promotions, etc. to acquire a customer, but on average those customers will pay you $20 over their lifetime, what should you do? Raise money and spend as much as you can to acquire more customers, if you think it scales!
Let me suggest you to, when you do try Lubuntu with LXQt, use kwin as the WM.

It's very lite (you won't notice the difference when compared to openbox) and it's feature full/very powerful.

LXQt devs have mentioned they will probably migrate to kwin when Wayland arrives for good.

(and forget lxde. LXQt is the future ;)

>Moore’s story is one of perseverance, hard work, and redemption — but it raises a controversial question: Should a convicted killer be given a second chance?

How's that a "controversial question"?

And in what other part of the western world a 15 year old kid even gets a life sentence for a murder in the heat of the moment, especially given he had drug and alcohol issues?
You shouldn't forget about how different races, ethnic groups, and cultures - and how those differences throughout history may affect criminality or poverty. Hispanic and black people are incarcerated at approximately 2 and 6 times the rate of white people respectively[1] in the United States.

White Americans are substantially more likely to be incarcerated than Western Europeans, but not as substantially as the non-race differentiated number might suggest. White Americans are incarcerated at a rate similar to Russia.

I can't speak to the drug war in Europe, or if it exists, but it is a likely culprit for a large number of American incarcerations. 1.3 million arrests a year are for "possession only"[2] and the number of Americans in prison takes off late 80's early 90's as the drug war is ramping up [3].

My understanding of the American incarceration system, and this is mostly just my synthesized view from reading and thinking about it, I can't easily source this anywhere - is that there was a lot of crime in the late 80's and early 90's, especially in major cities. People realized that basically all violent crime is committed by relatively young men. So - they devised a system where a significant number of problematic young men (1 in 9 men [3]) are locked away for a period of time.

> What I'm arguing is that, in order to effectively outsource, one must get good at the so-referred training and integration costs, while hedging against logistics issues

I think by now we have demonstrated that this is false, no? In the 1960s, it was a popular idea (especially among managers) to assume that a company can have a core competency of "management" rather than making products or services. If true, such a core competency would mean

1) You can take a great manager at an Ice Cream making company and move him over to an Aerospace company and he'd still be a great manager.

2) Rather than being facilitators who helped to coordinate talented people, managers had their own talent at "managing" and so you can pay them the kind of superstar wages that were previously paid to superstar performers.

3) The above two skills could be efficiently measured and identified to allow scaling them to a large organization.

This idea was obviously very popular, and so a business structure called the "conglomerate" arose where one huge company would buy and own many different smaller companies all with completely different product lines, because the competitive advantage of the conglomerate was viewed to be "managing" rather than producing, and thus the superior managers would improve margins at pretty much anything they were put in charge of.

But unfortunately what ended up happening was that the conglomerates underperformed. There are still some conglomerate hold outs, like Berkshire Hathaway, but everyone knows that this is because of Buffet's investment acumen, not because Berkshire has a stable of excellent managers. Perhaps there is such a thing as pure "management" skill, rather than say, "Engineering Management", but if such a skill exists, it's sufficiently difficult to measure and/or replicate from one product area to another that none of the businesses who thought they had this skill as a core competency actually had it. This remains the case today -- there are many well managed companies, and many talented managers, but 'management' has never been and cannot be a core competency of any firm.

So this idea that Boeing can shed its core competency from building planes and replace it with a "coordination" core competency is a rehash of the conglomerate dream with the same disastrous outcomes, and many people who saw what Boeing was doing knew exactly what this would lead to.
Agreed.

I'd expect them to formally hire these people and have them working as teams with proper opsec and infrastructure provided for them entirely separate from their personal lives.

Instead they're left to work in isolation from home, more vulnerable to recruitment, if anything just to be treated as part of something more.

There's so much wrong with the situation the FBI is cultivating here. They basically treated this kid as a criminal turned informant as terms of his freedom. That's the level of concern for his and his family's safety they seemed to exercise from my read of the article.

Those aren't contradictory at all. You could argue they're not even related because the labor in each situation is different. Even if they were the same, you could still have a situation where some engineering jobs go to cheap labor and some to AI so even on its face its not a contradictory.
Indeed. Probably like, what, 10-20% of our time? Maybe 25%-30% on a good week?

I'll even argue the opposite: there are many ways to write code slowly that yield better results.

- sometimes, you are 'thinking slow'. A pause between two snippets is invaluable in pre-forming the logic in your head anyway, which rules out 99% of the supposed 'efficiency' of a l33t-script-kiddie.

- pair programming is literally 2x slower in terms of man-hours, and actually even worse if we consider that talking to someone is much slower than thinking to oneself. And yet... it produces great code and makes your programmers better.

Hard to take advice from an article with a ton of typos.

The interview process seems to favor CS grads who memorize academic exercises and algorithms. It doesn't seem to take into account if you can actually produce a product and write maintainable code. I don't see the point as you can Google just about any solution during the work day, as needed, and real life work doesn't require you to write galaxy-scale algorithms within a 30 minute deadline.
I'm just curious, is there a reason not to use a multi-stage docker build here? There are a ton of build steps, and it seems pretty tedious to have to start from scratch every time while developing the image without any layer caching.
Self-Driving Scooters Are Coming
Censorship and deplatforming exist because companies have nothing to do with what was originally defined as free speech, and lots of us believe this is fine (including myself). If you want to take the phrase "free speech" and make it mean what you want it to mean, that's on you.

A while back I was working at a web startup (since folded), and management decided they wanted to inflate the usage numbers reported on the home page.

I was asked to write the code for it. I refused, telling my boss that I didn’t want to lie to our users. He said, “it’s not for them, it’s for the board.” “So we’re lying to the board, then?” I asked. He dropped it, and the task fell to another engineer.

The first version was deployed, with one slight oversight: he forgot to round the number the algorithm generated, so the home page displayed something like “157,311.18461947940563848871625 active users this month!” The bug was quickly rectified.
Actually, it is infringing. We have that word for very specific reasons.

In this case, nothing was stolen.
It's not a myth, most of the so called qualified devs on the market are terrible programmers. Companies do not have their pick, about 1 in 20 are worth hiring; most absolutely suck and can crank out extremely shitty code, but don't much understand what they're doing.
So during the expansion phase they are subsidizing consumers and as soon as the expansion phase ends they open up a space for competition again? Sounds pretty great for everyone except the owners of the independent pita places that go out of business.

As always, the pirate bay offers a DRM free alternative. Maybe one day the media companies will learn that the one thing consumers cannot stand is being inconvenienced, even slightly.

As long as their solution provides less value than pirating, or is a bigger pain in the ass than pirating, they will lose.

Unfortunately for them, pirating has become so easy, that unless they become like iTunes, they are dead. Just a matter of time.
Maybe but the pricing charts I've seen show fairs rising and falling.

That may be the case at the moment but if they shift those buckets I think it is also untrue unless it says 2 left.... unless we just change the price later.

Who's to say country X won't nuke you out of the sky before you have a chance at mining those materials? Whether we like it or not, international politics will dictate the course of humanity when it comes to space, unless some isolated group manages to do it in secret.

Further, even if a group manages to secure trillions of tons of common materials for us today, who's to say it will be given out for free? If it is, well, maybe I want you to give my country a bit more of the share than other countries, or I'll take their share by force. Even if we emerge a united world after something like that, we may find that we've developed far superior technology that has no use for the materials you've acquired.

There are tons of real-world questions that have to be answered, and it doesn't matter if we don't have time to come up with a good one, because someone will pull the trigger first.

Thank you for your kindness, but it won't happen. It's not happened in all these years and the need and issues are worse now. If I had been born in the first world with a proper social safety net I would have had help rebuilding from the start of this, and support to survive were that not possible. I've known people in my shoes who have that safety and live because of it. In this country its all about profits and if you aren't a producer of profits you don't get the privilege of life. I have to accept its over. All resisting that and fighting does it take more away and make the end worse and take away more agency. I can't stand anymore "Praying to Jesus changed my life" or "just do this hard and unstable job that even a young healthy person struggles with" advices, and seeing how many people respond with arguments about how "the market" is the right answer without caring that human life is involved. I am sick of all of it.
They just refuse to license their intellectual property to streaming companies that haven't developed "adequate" protection against "piracy". It's all about making a billion dollar investment look less risky in the eyes of executives. I seriously doubt it's helping them make more money.

Any victory against copyright infringement will come from competing directly against it. The copyright holders are too busy competing with each other and fragmenting the market instead of building something that's actually equal to or better than "piracy". It's pretty sad how a bunch of "pirates" manage to provide a better product than corporations valued at tens of billions of dollars.

Some programmers create jobs too. App stores for iOS and Android created an entire mobile app industry, as one example.
Well, that's less an excuse for having more inmates, and more something for the US to do some thinking on what they do wrong as a society to get both of those things higher...

If they have both harsher penalties and more crime and recidivism, then the former are clearly not working much.

And one would need to wonder why have more crime in the first place.

Either we go with the "lower quality people" explanation (bad genes?), which I don't think has many takers, or there's some bad cultural and systemic shit going on.

The only suggestion that this is meant "to handle all your traffic" is from you.

It seems like your main complaint is that the author didn't use some specific 'experimental/not for prod use' tag. For my mind, that's exactly what 'bleeding edge' implies, but if you think it doesn't why not simply suggest that they add such a tag? No charitable reading of the post suggests malicious or careless misleading.
"Senator, why did you vote for that bill?"
I suffer from depression and anxiety.

I have never sought professional help, mainly because of the cost, time, and shame. If you can, of course, get professional help, but since you asked me how I treat it, here it is.

First, one of the main reasons why I felt that depression was not meeting my parents' expectations. There is always someone better than me and my parents always compared our successes, directly or indirectly.

Then I had a great religious crisis when I learned about truly evil and disgusting human behaviors. It simply made me lose my faith in God and in humans.

And finally I was never good with the opposite sex. Although I had many friends, I still slept alone.

At one point, in my life I simply didn't see any point in it. I realized that I can never make my parents proud, there is no God and humans are evil, and I will never find love.

I exercised regularly and ate decent. There was no need to add more exercise to fight depression.

I had some thoughts about suicide but nothing serious. It scared me though and I began to enter Buddhism and meditation. But Eastern philosophy did not work for my logical mind. The meditation was too boring for me.

That's when I discovered stoicism, it seemed to click better with me. Almost at the same time, I also found an online CBT software that also helped my anxiety.

Then, after trial and error, I developed an external observer mentality. I think of life as a boring video game. I think of money as points of video games. And I only focus on getting the maximum scores. I know this sounds superficial, but it helps me on difficult days.

Before this mentality, I was changing jobs without thinking about career change in general. Now I am very strategic and I progressed a lot in my career.

I really don't care about my parents' approval anymore and they seem to respect me more. When I stopped chasing the opposite sex, I started to attract them and now I am happily married. I still see the world as a dark place and this is something I still struggle with.

But I have to play this video game, control my character, and try to get a high score. My character needs sleep and exercise to keep its mind sharp for work. My character must do chores and do nice things for spouse or spouse will leave it.

Life is just a video game.
They're available on torrent sites, but how are you going to watch that video on your Roku, Apple TV, smart TV or whatever? The key here is hardware control. The big players have it.
Because as someone said below it's not going to fix things just by being in another place I like better. Being illegal is a hard life with constant risk and lack of access to many things. It's not "really easy" at all and I don't know why anyone would think that. I need MORE stability than I have...not less. I said I am going to move because I refuse to die in this miserable country after what it's done to me. The only power I have left is to choose where it ends. It's not like I think moving will solve things in itself. I am in bad shape all around and am sick of suffering and the common response being to teach myself how to swim and get a job as a swim instructor as I am drowning. The clear lesson is society here thinks if you cannot produce consistently or enough for their ledger then you don't deserve to live. That's that.
