Do their “costs” include overpriced parts destined to move money offshore? For example in the film industry, it is common to promise actors a share of benefits, then create a subsidiary for the movie, charge it insane amounts for the producing company’s services (brand, distribution), so that the movie may be a loss even if its revenue is 3 times the production costs. Of course the head company deserves to be paid, but discussing how much a service or a part is worth, beyond its marginal manufacturing price, is the whole question.
Because it isn't true? Delaware doesn't charge state corporate income tax and has a specialized business court system. It does nothing to shelter you from international taxation.

I'm not sure if I'm alone in this, but I vehemently avoid guides or manuals to human interaction after a near-miss encounter with PUA shit in high school that almost led to me becoming a very different and much less likable person. Once I'm told that there's a certain way that is more or less "optimal" to interact with other people, I'm going to start seeing every conversation as an optimization problem, and that is simply not how I want to approach human interaction. I'd much prefer to stick with the quite-imperfect but naturally-obtained intuition that I've slowly gained over time.

When you start an interview an EC2 instance is provisioned. This will include all the (mis)configured software needed for the challenge you select, and you'll get access to that instance via the browser based terminal.

One of the interesting parts about building the outage related challenges is ensuring not just that they break, but that they break in a consistent and reliable manner. Also, that they don't interfere with your candidate's ability to work on the host.
Really? I prefer the firefox devtools over chrome. They're pretty similar though.

That perspective on the law is a non starter. It's just not true. Picking and choosing what is okay to infringe is by definition being an arbiter of copyright law.
are you positive that B and D are rule out A and C?

maybe a slight more productive way to have these conversations would be

"I thought about A, it didn't seem like a good idea to me because of B, what do you think? Am I thinking about this wrong? Is there some reason why B doesn't prevent A from being a good idea?"

subtle difference, but it signals that you value their input and ideas, and leaves open the possibility of you learning new things about your problem

(if you don't value their input and ideas, perhaps you shouldn't share your problems with them)
> Trying to build CI on every branch before merging to master just won't work with the scale they are dealing with. At 1000 developers, the rate of PRs coming in makes it impossible to determine what current master will be when the PR is ready to merge (i.e. when the branch has a green build). It's also wasteful to build each branch against current master because what is "current" will not be when the branch is ready to merge.

I'm starting to think most CI problems are just people not looking at the problem the right way. Here is the problem re-worded:

- When a PR has a green light and someone hits 'merge', it locks anything else from being to merge to master, and you merge your PR. When it finishes merging and deploying, now all the other PRs waiting have to rebuild themselves to see if they will merge with this new state of master. So 100s of PRs are rebuilding every time you merge one PR, and there's constant CI churn.

Here is why that problem exists:

- The system was designed for 1000 developers to all be writing to the same code base.

Here is how you solve that:

- Don't let 1000 developers all write to the same code base. Break the code down into discrete components that different small teams manage. The only bottleneck for that code base is that small team.

This small team is often called the two-pizza team, and their discrete components are often called microservices.
I was curious about that too.

> as no one is arguing that any corporate entity simply has the right to exist

Yes, but I do still see people give the "just don't use FaceBook then" argument on every post about this on HN, as if we should just ignore all the problems. Under this insane framework any horrible behavior by a company towards their customers is justified as long as you use their products willingly.

This also ignores the massive existing adoption FaceBook has. If I want to switch to twitter or mastodon or $otherSocialNetwork I have to convince everyone I communicate with on FaceBook to switch too.
it's related to adblocker, i eventually disabled adblock for that website, but without disabling it it wont work. i know it's not directly a firefox issue, but with mobile chrome not having adblocking it kinda is in that they don't care. it honestly took me to long to figure it because i could not believe that a multi national bank would have this broken website (and that is with new 2018-19 redesign). it's not the first website to not work without js, but you would assume that the bank website would be done in a way where if analytics is not loaded the rest of the webpage would continue to work.
> Go can be a viable alternative to C as a systems programming language

Stop this nonsense please. This does not show anything even remotely close to systems programming capability of Go. Write a device driver in Go that performs without lagging, benchmark it and then come back.

I'm guessing they'll have a confirmation of acceptance prior to confirming your ride. In two-party consent states (like CA) it's a notification/consent thing, so as long as they tell you you're being recorded and you consent to it, it's legal. But yeah, I'll pass on this as well.
high-spirited sales clerks would occasionally try to prank them by placing live mice or dead spiders inside the canisters. In-store gossip and romances could be covertly conducted by secret messages passed back and forth via the cash-carrier wires.

That might actually be a reason to get a system76 machine, since I expect that the stock OS can be replaced with very few issues. Debian GNU/Linux is a lot leaner and meaner than Ubuntu or PopOS (which don't seem to differ significantly in their branding anyway).

(Even Fedora or CentOS are not nearly as comfortable to use in my experience, although they might be preferable in other ways!)
I actually started with a bit of honey and removed it after some experimentation.

XUL was ahead of its time when it was introduced by Netscape/Mozilla many years ago. It was a capable XML based language used to describe rich graphical user interfaces. Together with XULRunner this was supposed to be a generic framework for creating graphical applications.
This was long before HTML became what it is today. Back then people still thought Java would take off on the desktop.

I don't think that hardware handshaking was universal, but it's ancient enough history that I can't state it categorically. I do know that RS-232 wasn't designed symmetrically so there was some confusion on which lines would do what.
It is not how it works at all.

The fallacy here is that a human body is a machine with well-defined intake and output.

How would one even know what is "exactly" the right amount?

Over a year we consume 1 million calories. If one were just 0.1% off of systematically eating more (or less) than required then according to your model one would end up being 200 pounds fatter or 200 pounds leaner ... do you think that anyone can regulate up to 0.1% accuracy to what they actually need?

eating a little more or less has absolutely not discernible effect the body adapts to it.
As an absolute fan of Blade Runner, I disliked BR2049 and I really think it was a mistake to film a sequel of the original. I don't think the original needed a sequel, the open ending and unanswered questions were perfect, and in fact most of the "tied loose ends" of the sequel kind of run contrary to the original for me. They undermine their characters and make it all some sort of silly experiment/conspiracy that simply doesn't do it for me. I dread the thought of Ridley Scott now saying he has more stories to tell... especially if they are of the "quality" of his Alien/Prometheus sequels.

I think I would have enjoyed BR2049 better had it been an entirely new movie and not a sequel to something. And if it didn't have Jared Leto overacting, of course, but I suppose that cannot be helped.

People who watched too many James Bond movies in the 70's love to blame Switzerland for money laundering.

The fact is Switzerland has very much cleaned up their act in the last 10 years, and the worse offender when it comes to cleaning and hiding ill-gotten gains these days are actually the US and Canada.
Why are you so extreme, sometimes people just want to vent and want some sympathy, mainly true for women but also for guys in cases. Sometimes they do want advice even when they don't ask, sometimes the advice itself can be soothing even if not act upon.

Social queue are not even the right thing to do always except from confirming to the social norm itself. Women do it all the time, they say the "right" thing and then you will hear from the rest of them how saying those "right" things elevate the women who said it to a "bitch", because they sense that it is not what she said that matters but the underlying feelings she conveyed.

The bottom line is, the whole thing is much more nuanced.
My guess is they aren't far ahead which explains why they are constantly telling companies to not encrypt data. The reality is they've spend billions developing a "super weapon" of mass surveillance and that entire system is heavily reliant on people not using effective encryption and companies willingly handing over data or creating backdoors.
No, deriving metal from ore is not as easy as you make it out to be. Even the construction of a simple bloom furnace requires a fair amount of knowledge of the properties of fire.
You can make a bloom furnace with your hands out of mud, so if it was trivial to make metal objects, why was the stone hand ax the predominant tool on record for most of human history?
Well you kind of led them down a path to failure/wasted effort. One of the best ways to prevent these kinds of unhappy conversational paths is pre-emption. If you've already considered A, B, and C, then you can assume that someone else might think of them, and you should mention them in your initial problem statement. "I tried A but then realized it wouldn't work because of B." Now you've communicated the same information and skipped the part where you ask them for ideas and instantly reject them. They may still be equally unable to offer a solution, but at least they haven't gotten frustrated and given up before understanding the true problem.

There is a content blocker API that has been available for a few years on both macOS and iOS, and there are third-party ad blockers that use it. 1Blocker is a popular one.

The design is more performant than holding each load up on a traditional browser extension's decision, and does not permit the content blocker to track your browsing history and then upload it somewhere.

It also conveniently allows Apple to get away with not providing a more flexible browser extension API while supporting the most common use case.

Love The Food Lab. (And I think my grilled cheese is pretty decent, at least according to my kids, which is saying something.) ;-) Agree with everything you are saying here, but I'll add that salads often have a bad reputation (I avoided them for years), but I can't think of an easier, healthier, more enjoyable thing to eat, assuming you can get good ingredients.
Its not stereotyping, but coming up with Bayesian estimates of conditional probabilities.

According to the data they collected, P(person is female | person is a shooter) is just very low. Similarly, P( person is a college student AND person is of color | person is a shooter) > P(person is a college student AND person is not of color | person is a shooter).

Note that "white males" did not always appear. In one case race wasn't a distinguishing factor (workplace violence), in another color was a distinguishing factor (college violence), and in the rest, being white was a distinguishing factor.

This is pretty balanced overall. The data needs to speak for itself. It's okay to notice that in some cases, white males are more likely to commit mass shootings. As okay as noticing that in other cases, non-white males are more likely to commit mass shootings. This means that we can be zoom in better on the issues that lead to such crimes being committed, and get people the help they need, before they irreversibly hurt themselves and others.

They aren't talking about P(person is a shooter | person is a white male). That would be stereotyping, but also easily dismissed, because as you noted, P(person is a shooter | person is a white male) is also very low.
Developers: Have you been laid off a bunch? Does it wreck your hiring process?

> I find that most "ordinary non-lawyer" people can understand these policies if they take the time to actually read them.

I find exactly the opposite.

> They're verbose, not arcane.

They're both.

The problem is that people aren't lawyers and don't read them with a lawyer's eye. This frequently leads people to think that the terms are saying things that they aren't saying (by design). People tend to think that these policies are more favorable to the user than they actually are.
Honest question as an owner of a current iPad with an active Apple Care subscription on it. What services do you actually get from Apple Care? My last Macbook did not have apple care and was like 6 years old, and I would still go into the Apple store and they would reinstall my OS from scratch for free. The only real perks I see from Apple Care is that it only costs you like $70 to get a broken part repaired instead of like $500 in the case of the screen/digitizer.

Still better than "Amputated the leg in under 2 1⁄2 minutes (the patient died afterwards in the ward from hospital gangrene; they usually did in those pre-Listerian days). He amputated in addition the fingers of his young assistant (who died afterwards in the ward from hospital gangrene). He also slashed through the coat tails of a distinguished surgical spectator, who was so terrified that the knife had pierced his vitals he dropped dead from fright. That was the only operation in history with a 300 percent mortality."

You might be right, but I would need to be further convinced because you could argue that as the event horizon continuously extends towards the particle, the particle slows down, slowing the extention of the event horizon. I'd need to see, with math, that indeed the particle does go past the event horizon in finite time, from the reference frame of an observer outside the black hole.

There are different modes of stability for wheeled vehicles. Gyroscopic effects are far more significant at speed. Though the ability to steer into a fall and move centre of gravity under centre of support is a key dynamic, particularly at low (or no) speed.
A 10 year old CPU might barely work, depending on the game. But you're describing a 2.5 year old $230 (but more in practice) GPU, which is massively ahead of a 4 year old $120 GPU. And every year past 5 for the CPU loses you more performance at an increasing rate, since things weren't stagnant then.
