Infinite divisibility.
All the GP said is that there should be parking spaces for deliveries, not that they should be free.
Legally doesn't mean anything in this scenario. What you should be doing is looking at how the police execute these things in practice.

Which is that typically the police don't give a single shit about stolen bikes or anything like that unless you're rich or, apparently, Facebook. The poor already have weaker property rights than the rich, because if they were to report their bikes as being stolen the police would scoff at them and continue doing jack shit. Or worse, if you're a minority.

And generally speaking, Facebook encouraging confrontations with the police which are historically very dangerous for minorities even if they've done absolutely nothing wrong is probably a bad idea.
Something to simplify FTP.

When you partner with a business in b2b most data is delivered through sftp channels.

Make a tool that vastly simplifies that. Be it onboarding, offboarding, alerting, emailing, the works.

If others follow suit, bailing out to their own proprietary online streaming services, and Netflix is left with only its original content, I would indeed see dim prospects for it. Netflix's own content is IMO not strong enough to sustain it.

There's a number of ways to do multiple excluded (no full-value reset) transfers involving trusts that, because of the costs associated with establishing the trust, are more accessible to the rich.
First, I think this is a pretty cool site and I'm happy to see someone creating this sort of geeky "techno-art."

As for price, it is clearly not component cost driven. Size for sure, but not price. The "TTL" clock is only $164 (not big discount), the Surface Mount one is $64 which is a bigger delta.

You can buy all the component parts for the transistor clock
for about $20 from bulk suppliers. The most expensive part are the displays.

It would be fun to try different designs to see if you could minimize components and improve accuracy.

Stored procedures MUST be stored in the VCS. On every upgrade, the older set of procedures MUST be fully deleted and the new set of procedures MUST be installed.

Otherwise, you have just created a huge hole in your buuild reproducibility. SQL (including pl/SQL) is a programming language, therefore treat it like a programming language - keep all of it in a versioning system and ensure that you can trace every piece of code that runs inside your database to a piece of code in your VCS.
Also good for outrage, the main ingredient of modern media. Once the enemy fires on a Red Cross branded outpost, they must be the bad guys, no matter how many of the doctors were actually intelligence operatives.

Not at all, and it was aimed at you.

When you asked for support for the assertion, it was given, but you continued to disagree.

However, for people who prefer Google, using Google results is an advantage. You seem to be working under some stronger definition of advantage (for example: "an advantage is only an advantage of everyone agrees it is am advantage"), and such advantages are rare enough to be an unreasonable requirement.

I haven't studied the issue, but it requires to access/execute php, no?

If configuration requires a path to get further than a canned reply from nginx (403, 404, static page..), then it should reduce attack surface a lot. You should not be able to get anywhere near php without the path.
>Can anyone explain to me what "3nm" means in practice nowadays?

In practice it means the next improvement of a full node coming from 5nm. The same rule applies to 5nm coming from 7nm. And every full node gives you anywhere from 70 to 100% density increase. TSMC normally does iteration of node, so your first version of a Full Node, whether that is 7nm, 5nm or 3nm gives you ˜80% density improvement, with subsequent node, that is 7nm+, 5nm+ or 3nm+ gives you 10 - 20% further improvement, along with performance, lower power, yield or cost etc. It is all a mix of trade offs.

The actual naming now has very little to do with any of its features size.
IIRC, my Dell laptop has a BIOS option to automatically stop charging at certain times of the day, even if it's plugged into the charger. So that's another opportunity: many people seem to use their laptop plugged into the AC most of the time (and into an extra monitor, and into an external keyboard/mouse, etc). With current laptops lasting several hours while unplugged, running them from the internal battery for an hour in times of high demand is viable.

Supply chain security is another interesting one. Both hardware and software. Products are built with components from many suppliers, from all over the world, and understanding the security of these is hard. All the current geopolitical excitability / nation state influences make this topical. NSA intercepting networking hardware and implanting monitoring, or AV software build pipelines being compromised; there’s a lot to think about and improve.

First thing I thought was "oh let them slide, when you think about big issues, you might slip on some sanitize code".

But then I thought, if you advertise something as "encrypted" and "secure" or more secure than competition, you should get at least basic pentest. It is not cheap to get one and a good one but that kind of XSS would be ruled out...

I got so irritated by the constant blinking of the "slide show" off to the side that I couldn't get through the article. Visually it's what I imagine a migraine feels like.

Couldn't they have provided a pause button for when the novelty wears off-- which is in about 10 seconds? This is bad UX, if one ever needed an example of what not to do.
I've been to Germany on several occasions, and I've never tipped, and have never seen any of my German and/or European friends tip. Sometimes, you just round up to the nearest whole number, but that is it.

Also, in countries that do a better job with pin+chip, you never have to even round up. You only do this in Germany, because you mostly pay for things in cash over there.
I built it as a CLI because of the reasons you mention, but also because I find that workflow most convenient for me and I didn’t want to need an internet connection.
How is that better? Isn't your moral obligation to denounce that situation?
I am pro tipping (living in the UK). But it doesn't make sense to subsidize/outsource the staff's salary to the customer (via tipping). I respect the people to make and serve my coffee just as a respect the person who drives me to work (bus, underground). I prefer that these people receive a decent salary from their employer so they can also have proportionally large-r pension contributions. Nobody mentions that.
Which goes back to scythe's point: is USD 17k (with US prices) enough to live on, even if we do not have to work? If yes, we do not need growth; if it would be better to have more, then we need growth.
That wasn't the question.

The question was why do I think it's both flawed and universally accepted.

Because it is, and it isn't?

The biggest pain point I've experienced with these pubsub services is how to negotiate client connections so that all the subscribers to a topic are directly connected to the same machine. In other words, clients' messages do not have to ever be relayed at the networking level. This means providing some reconnecting or connection-info data for the client, and it's why I think most of these frameworks fail to improve on home cooked solutions: you have to touch the message to help squeeze out efficiency.

A non-IP based routing mechanism requires some kind of header/parsing/deserialization of the message being passed. In application level code this is quite slow, you have to query some kind of map synchronized about cluster nodes. This is especially shitty if message addresses are ephemeral, especially per RPC call (which is the default behaviour in most cluster-based RPC frameworks), because then your near cache of the cluster map is never populated. Alternatively you can just broadcast to everyone (skip the cluster map) but then why cluster?

It would be great if we just had IPv6 adoption though. Then you could just uh, route. The DNS based routing in stuff like Kubernetes is close but not for external Internet facing clients. The whole point is to avoid a bastion host.
This is a great comment. I've come across deepstream over the years. I've always come away thinking that I could make something similar that would serve my needs without adding a dependency into my project. You need to demonstrate some compelling feature.

Eg. sync

DeepStream sync: 6ms
A well-intentioned misconception at work here.

Really ... in what other circumstance would you ever reward an "extraordinary" accomplishment with a mere 15-20% bonus. What extraordinary thing costs just 15% more than the regular, run of the mill normal thing.
I know a guy who was deep in the online steroids world like 10 years ago. He would find clients on body building forums. There was eventually a bust and he didn’t get nabbed although many other associates of his did. He couldn’t believe at the time that a bust could have happened given how minor that was compared to narcotics.

The most interesting part of the story was that during the time he was under investigation he was completely overcome with fear and worry, so bad he was vomiting blood. Once he got through it without any charges he completely got out of drug dealing and became a software engineer.

I don’t think people who dabble in crime truly understand how nerve wracking it is until something really bad happens. Effective criminals are sociopaths who don’t experience fear the same way as most people. It’s so much better to work in legal industries.

Some things I wonder about:

- You've done better at other companies – so why were you hired in the position you have now? Aren't you overqualified?

- The evidence you provide for him being terrible isn't totally sound (The team is a mess, lots of silos, morale is low, difficulty in meeting commitments); could there be other factors here? Perhaps he's overloaded by his superiors?

- Is the company successful despite his shortcomings? Does his team succeed more than it fails?

- What makes you sure you've done better?

I think close to half of the devs (or more) that I've worked with have had issues with their team leads and thought they could do better. It's never that simple. For example, I was with a company once and the CTO was really struggling to manage individual wants and needs, began offloading sprint management to new team leads, and everyone thought he was really shitting the bed. It turned out he was working with some security auditors to get many of our systems vetted and ready for some high profile customers who had very strict, extensive requirements. The customers were bringing millions into our company and the CTO was making it happen, and everyone just assumed he was totally blowing it (rather than just wanting to help the guy out). He was also working on making us GDPR compliant at the time. What's your tech lead struggling with exactly? It could be legitimate.
privacy.resistFingerprinting has a bunch of useful features (this, letterboxing, etc) that I wish were available under their own dedicated about:config options. I don't want to enable resistFingerprinting because I value being able to use dark mode more.
macOS has this built in using Apple-Shift-4.
Yes, indeed. But growth does matter if it reaches the people, which is scythe's point.
Tipping is something completely different. I have come to believe that in America tipping is to recognize acceptable service. It is a feedback mechanism to weed out, to mark and penalize undesirable behaviors. The best people to make that determination are the customers themselves.

The only time you should not tip is when the service is bad.

Do understand that if we did not tip the prices would simply rise, we would still pay the same as with tipping, but it would take away a mechanism by which you can make ourselves heard.
Do you just want WebDAV and nothing else? There’s plenty of Docker images for that and most of them are just Apache with the relevant plugin and config.
So we have half a million violations and complete disregard for the law, but you are saying they are not causing safety issues? You are the one that should be bringing in evidence to support this strange position. If we assume random chance, statistics aren't on your side.

And "potential to kill people" * "millions of people" = "dead people"
I am the OP on this thread, and I totally agree with you (and almost everyone else who has replied).

There are massive perks to working remotely and I will never (hopefully), ever have to work in an office and commute again.

You have to be extremely disciplined, and have a company that knows how to set requirements properly.

If you have that, and you know exactly what needs to be done, and when it needs to be done by, then you are set.

Do it, and then do whatever else you want. Wake up whenever, take a 3 hour lunch break, it doesn't matter.

I worked 4 hours this Sunday AM because I had nothing else to do and I wanted to get progress done on my current task.

This is the proper way to work, especially so for software engineers, where everything can be done 100% the same remotely as it can be done in an office.

I don't disagree, but Exxon might have had the cachet, especially in the 1980s, to speed up decreasing the carbon intensity of the economy. The entire energy sector is now <= 5% the size of the entire S&P, down from 18%, so it's unclear if energy companies still have that level of cachet.

Now, going forward, in 2020, there might be a different calculus. Usually, the market cap/stock price of a company reflects future cash flow. For an E&P company, much of Exxon's valuation comes from the cash flow expectation on its oil reserves. That's problematic if some of those oil reserves are in effect stranded assets. Certainly not all will likely, but say, things like the tar sands? It very well could be.

They use it for a block in each direction - coming and going. Now multiply that by the number of delivery drivers and the number of deliveries and its actually quite constant, especially below 14th st. It's most certainly not necessary as they could just easily dismount on the street in front of the building. And yes often it is e-bikes and these are now the preferred delivery bike.
It's just marketing bullshit.

> and such a "new Smartphone OS" would probably need to be based on Android to be able to use Treble

Not really, one could most likely use libhybris and Halium to run Project Treble's userspace parts on a fairly ordinary Linux distribution. In fact, I'm surprised that people aren't starting to test this using the likes of Debian, or Arch, or even pmOS.

(One of the remaining issues is that Project Treble images aren't really as standard or unified as people assume them to be, there are a few varieties based on architecture (32- vs. 64-bit) the "hardware-native" Android version (Android 7, 8, 9, 10) that ships on the device, and "A-only" vs. "A+B" booting scheme. But it sure beats having to use one image per phone model, and having to include proprietary blobs in the image.)
Have you checked out Vendr for software?
I'm not a lawyer so I don't understand why you would file it on the last day anyway. If you're appealing wouldn't you want to file just as soon as you're ready? Filing at the last minute doesn't give a bad impression to everyone involved and in doing so harm your case?
I think that's an interesting point, and I can't say I have a well thought out position on it, but I'm happy to have stumbled upon this conversation.

One one hand, I feel ok paying extra for my health care to cover others who might have been left out previously because of individual pre-existing conditions. Us pooling all together to take care of every citizen makes sense.

However in a purely hypothetical scenario where say men are 1000x worse at something than women, let's say driving, say car insurance for women is $100 and it's $100k for men, should we really charge women 50k just to make it fair based on the "we must ignore gender" principle? I realize in the real world there might be no such stark contrast between genders or ethnicities, in which case giving everybody the same higher rate would probably be more sensible.

I don’t know how they compare these costs, the document doesn’t say. Battery storage doesn’t generate power after all. Nuclear power’s great feature is that all the externalities tend to be included in the price. This is also makes it look more expensive than almost anything else. Do these wind/solar prices include decommissioning and full life cycle maintenance costs?

I have a react native app published as part of our SaaS software suite. I don’t think users notice or even care if things feel marginally non-native.

I’d agree optimizing user experience by developing in native code might be important if you have a game or social media app where the worth of your company is directly correlated with your app install metrics.

Do you have any anecdotes or data that illustrates that users will be “confused” or “insulted” by non native apps?
Exactly. Lots of food for thought there.

I expect these results in the open air, since there is so much for the photons to bounce off of. They're probably even bouncing off the sides of the actual slits, unless the block is thin and precise enough, and anti-reflective enough to not allow light bouncing off of it - straight polarized lines only.

This is why I ask such a specific question. I don't deny the effect is happening at all - I question the influence of other parts not taken care of in the experiment.

We speak of "noise" (interference) when discussing related observations in regards to quantum computing. I'm hoping we're at least as stringent about these experiments. But so far, I've only ever seen them done in open-air environments, which to me leaves too many nagging questions. I doubt the quantum effects I can produce in my dusty office are as precise and pure as they would be in a proper lab, but all the evidence I've seen is that I'm doing it pretty much precisely the same (sloppy) way.

Electrons do indeed show the same effect and I recall reading once that the experiment was first proposed using electrons. There are other particle/wave effects as well, but those two are the easiest to demonstrate with, apparently.
