Sorry: I misunderstood slightly, thinking it was something you put to them. In our tech interviewing I ignore self-assessed ratings, finding them useless for the reason you do, but I don't hold it against them if they're inaccurate just for the reasons I outlined.
I think it’s the implied stability, especially for long-standing APIs. S3’s API is 2006-03-01 — meaning there haven’t been breaking changes in over 13 years. This creates a psychological contract with developers that nothing’s changing anytime soon.

The trade off is that AWS has some godawful APIs (DynamoDB has the least intuitive API I have ever worked with). But they’re stable.

If you go with a date-based approach and create a process + contract whereby you guarantee API stability and / or deprecation date, the developer always knows exactly how much time they have before an upgrade.
Why is MMS better then your favorite chat program?
My impression is that semver makes far more sense for published libraries (DLLs or ruby gems or npm packages etc) while date-based makes far more sense for SaaS APIs. The constraints and usage patterns are fairly different between the two.
Funny that you mention Stripe, because it was definitely the canonical backwards compatibility API for me.

... Until just recently in mid Nov they changed some behavior that caused us to double/triple/quadruple charge customers unintentionally in some not-so-uncommon edge cases... I’m still trying to square this one with their support, so details are a bit thin. But definitely a big surprise for me to see this happening when previously I never imagined something like this can happen given the API versioning stability.

Did you even click on your own link? That twitter account does NOT show "a systemic problem". If you had, you see it focuses on one of the "bad apples", the Bronx Girl story with some minor headline tweaks. Sorry but fixing the Headlines to improve the grammar or accuracy is not a mark of bad journalism.

Whoever runs that account clearly has an axe to grind against the NYT, and beyond the Bronx girl story their examples don't prove anything.

If someone has got a working TLS 1.2 on such an old OS, I'll like to know too. Because I certainly haven't saw any example.

Yes, it should be in the control center, for sure.
I never understood why we settled on semver.

If I have a bug, it's a breaking change. If I fix this bug, it's also a breaking change.
For the record, I'm not dismissing them at all, I'm putting forth a hypothesis regarding them. My "political topspin" here is informed by the study, my main point of contention regards the interpretation of the direction these results are pointing in and where future research and resources should lie. I think investing in air filters is a silly approach to this problem if you're looking at root causes. Restructuring our economy to be friendlier to workers and their environment is a comparatively monumental task, but it's actually tackling both problems at their more fundamental causes.
Please take this as friendly. It sounds like maybe you're setting your expectations too high, and not giving other women a chance. In my experience women take what you write in your profile seriously. Spend what you would consider an inordinate amount of time perfecting it, like you would a resume for big job prospect. Get great photos taken of yourself, this doesn't require money or a professional service. Find good light, take lots, use the best of them. Grainy, poorly lit, unflattering photos will be dismissed quickly. Don't make them all selfies. You want to show off your best features, and what makes you, well you.

But seriously, work on what you say in your profile. Nearly every response I get from a woman, is about how well my profile is written.

Quite a simple concept, it's particulate matter in the air, the greater the density the worse the effect on humans, animals, and ecology. It would be difficult to measure the effect of one specific particulate's effect.

Particle pollution — also called particulate matter (PM) — is made up of particles (tiny pieces) of solids or liquids that are in the air. These particles may include:

Dust
Dirt
Soot
Smoke
Drops of liquid

Some particles are big enough (or appear dark enough) to see — for example, you can often see smoke in the air. Others are so small that you can’t see them in the air.

What Are People Dying of on High Air Pollution Days?

"The air pollution disasters in London in 1952, the Meuse valley in 1930, and in Donoroa, Pennsylvania, in 1948 made it clear that extremely high levels of particulate-based smog could produce large increases in the daily mortality rate."
When will this meme end. Angular is not crazy opinionated. The previous version more so, but it's really open to letting you do things in general ways. You want css scoped to your components? Sure. You want two way data binding? Sure, but wait you want one way binding? You go it. You can use rxjs, or you can avoid it.

There's some general ways to set things up, but it's nice to have a general approach to each project you encounter.

And the biggest thing is Angular wasn't designed to be used by a solo developer working on a side project. It's evolved to allow that, but it was designed with companies in mind. Multiple developers, multiple teams of developers, maybe with little communication to work together on single projects whilst allowing guide rails to keep things headed on the same track, but allowing many ways to move the track in a way that fits your style.

The idea that react is just a "library" (think you mixed up your words there) is absurd when you look at the majority of react in the wild. Using create-react-app, react router, forms library, animations, etc etc, and now look, you just pieced together a bunch of different libraries to form....Angular.
White collar employees in Germany and Scandinavia are much poorer than their equivalents in Canada and the US. Sure, they get maternity leave and 8 weeks of vacation and whatever but they'll never be able to retire at 35 like an American developer.

It is not worth losing over half my income to get these "worker protections" and "social benefits" and it's no wonder that tons of Europeans come to the US to work and very few Americans go to work in Europe.
What specifically about SaaS API constraints do you think makes a date-based approach more appealing than semver?

My high-level feeling is that it’s just way more difficult to ship a SaaS API than a Ruby Gem, so adding semver to that is just another layer of API management everybody has to agree on. Do you agree with this assessment?

That's an incredibly naive and irresponsible approach to building a society. You're basically inviting a huge social challenge and stressor into otherwise perfectly functional and harmonious societies just to possibly further your own political and social agenda. You're like an engineer who throws a few bugs into a functioning system because "it will force the system to improve".

The prosperous parts of the world are prosperous because the people living there made them prosperous. Unprosperous parts of the world could do the same if they followed the well worn path of development (law, order, stability, individuals working hard to learn and build business and enterprise, etc.) that all developed nations have followed.
Freaked Out? 3 Steps to Protect Your Phone
The US government has agreed with the US government's argument that any information transmitted over a 3rd party server is not protected by the 4th Amendment. This is why the US government will not do anything to stop or slow the mass collection of private data. They have asserted and affirmed their right to Hoover that shit in tandem.

The best way that I can see to force the government's hand on this issue is to use a dataset like the one the NYT obtained to expose a few politician's extramarital affairs. Once they realizes this information can be used against them, they'll suddenly consider it to be a very big issue.

On Scientists, Developers, and Engineers: Differences and Overlaps
This was really uncalled for. Nothing I wrote, has anything to do with what you wrote in the first two sentences. I was asking a question, because I was curious as to the reason.
Why no judge could class them that way (and its reasonable to doubt that). Still, as a nation we object to what they uncovered, and many are glad to learn of the massive overreach of authority these organizations are daily perpetrating.
omg! thank you so much. I was scratching my head about loss of two-finger scrolling and totally forgot about Logi software installed (Windows 10, hp elitebook 820g1)
I prefer semver, but it's still not exactly what I want. What I'm looking for is the answer to 'how painful/risky is upgrading likely to be?'. I expect an x.x.1 release to be zero/low risk - small fixes only within current api and contract. I expect a 2.x.x release to come with major risk of breakage (and I'll almost always want to wait for 2.0.2-2.0.3 before actually upgrading - and I expect a 1.x.x -> 2.x.x release to have a risk of bigger changes compared to a 5.x.x -> 6.x.x since the latter is expected to have the fundamentals ironed out by now). But there doesn't seem to be much consensus on whether an x.1.x release can have breaking changes or not - or maybe they don't come with as strict a definition of a breaking change as Shopify is using - so I'm left with treating them the same as 2.x.x (though usually I don't wait for x.x.1 in this case).
Weird Secret Makes Me $10k from YouTube Without No Filming
Yeah, this expert prefers Guru. /s
Yeah, really, this is the first programmer I've ever heard of who had lacked bugs to be fixed. There's always new stuff to work on.

Maybe he was only used for some older niche stuff that was going out of style and he was trying to cling to the past.
That or he's hired by people who don't peer review at all, as in he's the only developer.
I hadn't noticed the "make it your top priority" part. This makes me more inclined to think it's a troll.

This seems as reductive as saying all democratic governments are citizens collectively organizing.
Lying is a major factor, and rarely someone can disprove it.
Also actual features and technical superiority are a hindrance, not an advantage. You just need to keep repeating your lies, as loud as possible. And keep spinning it.

Unfortunately, I think a less favorable Dutch trait lies at the root for a lack of interest in such matters: people believe so strongly this is a nice and 'civilized' place, most people refuse to even entertain the idea anything could be seriously out of whack in 'paradise'.

There is a sort of reinforcing feedback loop to preferring to pretend all is well: to most people things of course are usually well and if everyone thinks all is well most people will behave well. But if you're one of the unlucky ones affected by such issues, you'll find it very difficult to convince people, after all, all is well.

Don't let them make you feel bad about yourself. It was a little overboard in my opinion, I thought they were about to say you're a Nazi if you use Chrome.

Knowledge is power, just be aware of what is going on with your apps and make a judgement call for yourself. Lately I've been enjoying going to brick and mortar stores and don't go to Facebook at all. Who still uses Facebook? And if I end up seeing an ad, I don't let it ruin my day.
Intel's Disgraceful Marketing Gets Worse [video]
Would a tool that easily shows you documentation / schema changes between API versions be useful to you, or create more trust with a SaaS provider if they offered it?
Shows the importance of code reviews.

I wonder why this is illegal but it's legal for hardware to deny service or even break stuff when they detect you're using something they don't like (I'm referring to printers, but I also remember a case where a microcontroller would try to brick something when it detected a counterfeit cable).
I don't think it's "totally acceptable", just tolerated because it's "the authorities" doing it. I don't know of anyone who accepts what the TSA does, they just tolerate it because they feel like they need to fly and there's no other way around it.

The average person can't really do anything about the TSA, at least not in the moment. The choice is: allow yourself to be groped or don't fly. That's a really bad choice.
so you're advocating for regulatory capture? That'll go just like the legal pot industry; prohibitively expensive licensing that only goes to the already big players in the game.

> So when we talk about connection data, you can see things like Wi-Fi connections.
Most cars these days have a Wi-Fi hot spot, so you can see devices that have been connected over Wi-Fi,
you can see devices that have been connected over Bluetooth. Once you connect the phone, things like your call logs,
your contacts,your text messages, audio/video images, a lot of that stuff can be present depending on the type of car it is. If you plug in a media player,you can see things like all the file names, the modified, the accessed,the created times.

> You won't get the actual file itself, but you'd get basically an index of all the files.
Navigation data is pretty interesting, as well. So you get things like track points, that's a latitude and longitude position of everywhere the vehicle's been that come with timestamps, as well. You get previous destinations, so things like your home, your office…

iVe can be downloaded by everybody but needs registration to work. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.berla.ivem... <- makes and interesting target for reversing me thinks.
I'm with the Raskins, the problems derive from interacting with computers via applications. This may or may not be at the forefront of your mind but your fondness of Lisp and Smalltalk systems supports my claim. Other systems such as Oberon fall into this camp but I would also include early PC systems like the Commodore 64 and DOS machines, even though they loaded individual applications.

The commonality with these systems is the somewhat ubiquitous interface. I think this is why power users love the command line. These HCIs reduce the cognitive load of the application model where there are wildly disparate UIs to deal with on a continual basis. The growth of "web apps" has made this exponentially worse on the user because they're not bound by widget tool kits.

I also see modern markers to support the claim. From what I understand, in China a huge amount of activity on smartphones that we would conduct through various apps, they conduct through WeChat and WeChat bots. They do this because it's more convenient and my claim is this is the normie's equivalent of attempting to push all their computing needs into Emacs.

That's an argument for a research paradigm, its not an argument for the truth.

If there are fatal problems with Theory-A, Theory-A isn't true. No matter how much Theory-A might help with some other problem you have.

The CCTM is the research paradigm for modern AI, parts of cognitive science, etc. -- and insofar as it provides a clear set of assumptions to arrive at useful models, so be it.

Alexa can turn the lights on, for sure. She may even be able to reason a little (if-then-else, etc.). I doubt she will ever know what a "light" is, or what she is doing when she turns it "on".

That would require Alexa to have lived a human life, and to have lived in a deep and complex social/physical environment. There is no "logic" which can specify such things in a limited set of propositions: the effect of the world on animals is not merely to add propositions to their "set of beliefs".

Rather, animals are first traumatised by the world: their emotions, physical memory, instincts, etc. are all unmindfully coerced by their environments. Only with a peculiar sort of frontal lobe are those things expressible as propositions -- but they arent propositions, as evidenced by the infinite number of them required to capture the effects.

What we need before understanding inference, is to understand on what inference operates: the mental life created by the effect of the world on the whole mind of the animal.

One challenge with date based is that it can make your API seem old if it’s really stable. For example, see PagerDuty’s v1 events API:

https://events.pagerduty.com/generic/2010-04-15/create_event...

Customers there would sometimes ask if that API was still relevant given its date is 9+ years old.

In Shopify’s case, where there are quarterly version bumps and deprecation over time, date based makes better sense.
Agree.. The title seems to be pointing finger at air polution and global warming only and leads to a lot of spurious correlations..

The same could be said for : 'Working night shifts long term is linked to depression and suicide'

Now, while you can reduce global warming and air polution, its different to try and say we need to all work only during the day.

Whay are some people so successful and others less so?
Why are some people so successful and others less so even in very similar fields or when doing nearly the same identical thing? I think it comes down to the person who is successful does 100% of things correctly but the person who fails only does 99% of things right. the 1% is what make all the different., it is the secret sauce that separates huge success from total failure.
