Our recollections of history of similar, however I also recall there being discussion about preventing semantic tags from being included in XHTML. A certain segment of the population believed it didn't belong in the document but rather as a corollary document in RDF or whatever (an argument of data normalization vs. denormalization).

Atom/RSS was involved in the debate because they were also trying to solve the metadata issue. Things like "author", "publish date", etc. are just as relevant to aggregation/syndication formats as it is to the document itself. Again, I'm summoning my fallible memory here, but one argument was if the metadata is relevant to both documents then it ought to be stored separately and linked to the HTML/RSS docs using a URL.

XHTML was involved because as an XML format it was conceivable to store your metadata separately AND to use XSLT to transform it into your XHTML/RSS/Atom document on demand. So RDF, Atom, RSS and XHTML authors all wanted a say on a metadata format that would suit all of those use cases. That is a tall order.

My personal feeling about the death of XHTML was it wasn't one big thing that killed it. It was hundreds of smaller disputes like this one.
I don't know if it would break-even that fast, but I would say much of why people are not doing it yet is that the technology is so new people don't know about it, and also there are some very powerful entrenched interests fighting it. Like the present US administration.
That’s definitely possible. You can modify seeds with Spotify’s api

Your odds of making money are much better with a young-ish but publicly traded company than with a startup. Even if a startup is successful, you won't see much money unless you were one of the founders or early investors. There's a million ways the stock options that early employees get can be made worthless (or worth-little).

What chemistries are we looking at, near-Earth phenomena might be responsible for the appearance of one-time "stars" on a photographic plate. I'm thinking cosmic-rays but I'm sure there are a tonne of potential sources.

Perhaps also different wavelength star sources too? Or are they doing the observations across the whole spectrum (that's probably common nowadays?).

Working for a startup makes sense if you think it has good odds of making it, and you are in for a share of it.

This is not how Go "works" overall, you're talking about the size of the goroutine stack which is by default 4KB, so in a scenario with a lot of connections yes it's going to add up if you use 1:1 connection / goroutine, but outisde of that Go uses less memory than Node / C# / Java / Python ect ...

So I woudn't say "Go trades off memory usage for productivity" since Go is widely used for low memory footprint.

Same reasons why Go makes sense in services like Kubernetes where each pods are in the range of 2 digits MB, it woudn't be possible whith languages mentioned above.

Edit: In your edit context it makes more sense :)
I use Launchy in "Portable" mode (because my work PC is locked down and I may not install Launchy on it). After some 1) significant amount of config-tweaking, 2) learning curve involving moodiness on Launchy's part, and 3) learning about certain keyboard-shortcuts, it works like a charm. The fact that it's Portable is a HUGE plus to me.

I'm going to give Jarvis and Wox Launcher test-drives, if they're available in Portable mode.

The way sausage is made now is most certainly a modern invention, but nitrates and nitrites are not bad for you, nor toxic, in of itself as a family of chemicals.

The problem in the modern industrial world is the use of artificial nitrates and nitrites present outside of plain sodium or potassium nitrite, which thankfully is starting to become more rare again.

Also, there is no scientific link between nitrate consumption and cancer, only really awfully designed papers that somehow, and very unreasonably so, got published in journals.

I really think the issue is that many startups don't offer alternative compensation and don't play to their strengths. You can be compensated in other ways, but often I've found much of the work at startups can be no more interesting than their Big N counterparts. Your career growth might also be similar. In theory, for startups, you sacrifice pay for other facets. The reality is quite different.

The work might be similar but you're paid 50-75% of your peers. That was my experience in startup land, at least. Few good challenges or career growth and half of what I felt like I was worth.
> The reason FB and Google pay well is because when they were startups, they were paying WELL!

they most decidedly were not. everyone there was taking $25k if not $50k pay cuts to be part of it.
I have BEEN one of the founders, and still didn't make any money off the ultimate sale. There are far too many games with share classes, VC-funded bridge loans, and preferred investor incentives. The only way to win is to not play the game.
I looked into this when the news came out and found this article (2007) with many details:

I've always thought this problem to be overstated. It doesn't make financial sense to work for a startup, but the upside is that you get to work on something you care about (and even the startup salaries aren't that bad in the grand scheme).
There is a lot of capital out there, what needs to happen is the number of startups shrink and the well funded ones pay more money - even more than google or FB pay. Simple as that! If you are sad that you can’t get a professional team on a $1mil seed, I have absolutely no empathy for you because I’m an employee and this is the free market.

Now, if you really want to make it more enticing, some things that would move the needle for me other than comparable salaries (although more cash is #1):

- Larger equity that automatically ups if it will be diluted, and the moment any shares vest I can sell them in the private market.

- Transparent cap table.

- If the founders take cash off the table, I can as well, and no preference for founders.

- 10 years after leaving to exercise my shares. I don’t want to have a 3 month trigger that handcuffs me to prevent a giant cap gains bill on “paper money” when the fair market value is way higher.

- Reasonable working hours.

- Flexible work from home policy.

But overall, go raise more and start offering more cash, because I assume 95% of startups are total failures.
Canning is different because instead of modifying the structure of the food to make it stable, the structure of the environment is changed.

> All doing just fine.

I think it may be too early to claim this. I think we can only judge these companies' well-being (especially with respect to their recent controversies) on a medium- to long-term scale.

I've banked at Wells Fargo since 2013, and I intend to close my 2 WF accounts and open up new ones at Chase soon. If I could remove my information from Equifax or another credit bureau, I would. By all standards, these companies are "doing just fine" at present. But what about 5 years from now, 15 years from now? The damage to a companies' reputation and the impact it has on consumer decision-making can be slow-moving and hard to notice/quantify.
So, what is the secret sauce that makes this different from a standard spamming list?
Will this help any on getting acceleration for Tensorflow?
I liked the Newton products, and used them for a while. I thought the MessagePad was an awkward size, though; too big to fit in a pocket, but too small to have a good-sized screen. It would have been better if it were either smaller, like the Palm Pilot, or larger, like the unreleased Senior and Cadillac prototypes (I had a couple of those and liked them quite a bit).

Hardware limitations did have an important effect on them. Pretty much everything you see on the shipping Newton was a compromise between trying to give the device enough power and capacity to be interesting and trying to keep it small and cheap enough for people to buy. We didn't hit the sweet spot.

Yeah, iOS gave up a lot of flexibility and capability as compared to Newton, but Steve was never going to reuse a failed product conceived under someone else's leadership, and anyway, he chose to abandon the whole idea of a device for creating stuff and went with a device for consuming.
Isn't the ideal thing here to let employers compete with higher and higher salaries for visas rather than silly things like luck-lotteries or country-of-origin? This ensure that the smartest foreigners come here, and stay here. This also ensures that we attract high quality talent. It removes the uncertainty immigrants face (and that companies face.)
Solve them internally in your own country instead of the near-impossible task of trying to bend the whole world to accommodate your interests.
But CUDA C++ is a single-source programming language incorporating both CPU and GPU parts, so what is the one-to-one replacement for writing a kernel and launching it with the angle bracket syntax? Looking at the whitepaper[0] it looks like there is still some language extension going on to support the single-source case (the __global function). So HIP is also a C++ compiler frontend?

The curious pattern of preemptively rejecting the solution to your problem[2013]
Honestly I think 10% should be a floor for this, and considered completely separately from the usual 10%+ option pool (for the ones that come after the first approx 10).

For that matter heading out of a seed round with very roughly 1/3 founders 1/3 employees 1/3 angels/whatever seems pretty sane to me, although a bunch of that first 2/3 should not have vested yet. Your second tranche their would hold a largish option pool for growth, and a bunch of "founding employee" equity. You are all going to get diluted to hell, but however it eventually shakes out I think that collectively those starting key employees should see roughly the same outcome as individually a founder does....
I feel like a lot of "Next Big things" incubate for much longer than people realize. It's usually that some technological tipping point is reached where a good-yet-impractical idea suddenly becomes just a practical idea and it takes off.

If someone said that computers were a "dead" next big thing when they were invented, they would have been considered right until the advent of integrated circuits!
It's VCs' and founders' fault for always diluting employees on the big exits. If they want to gain back trust we need iron-clad poison-pill provisions that prevent employees from getting screwed out of their equity.

I don't think Dan Luu has some sort of eminent domain over this topic -- I've seen literally hundreds of similar posts, most long preceding and covering the same topic. It's a pretty common decision for people in this field to face, and lots of people have lots of takes.

Not to mention that his post format isn't remotely like DanLuu's. It reminds me more of old Philip Greenspun.

A significant share of the blame for the crashes accrues to the pilots who did not remember/follow emergency procedures for runaway trim. There was also the LA problem of putting an airplane back into service despite the critical malfunction on the earlier flight.

To reiterate, the procedure is:

1. restore trim to normal with the electric thumb switches

2. throw the stab trim cutoff switches
These are comparisons of deep, long exposure time survey images. They aren't imaging one star at an instant time, but entire fields of them over many minutes to hours, so:

> operator error

would effect the entire image. If it were damage to the film/sensor, scratches etc, it wouldn't look like a star point source with a star like point spread function.

> hardware error, noise

Digital sensors do add noise to an image, but it doesn't occur as bright point sources concentrated in a small area. noise can be removed through statistical analysis, dark frame subtraction, lucky imaging, etc. Dust on the lenses or mirrors aren't in the focal plane and don't resolve to points. Dust on film or sensors would block light, not produce it. Many exposures all over the sky quickly characterize the on sensor defects and other instrument specific information that can be removed from the data.

> anomalous near-earth objects

these are long exposures, if they are anomalous objects, they would have to have very slow apparent motion against the stellar background. satellites and planes would leave trails. balloons would drift with the wind. what would stay basically static through the entire long-exposure against the celestial sphere?

I appreciate your skepticism, I'm just taking the other side of the argument. Thoughts?

Yes you will probably make more at an established company, but your rate of growth can be much higher at a startup.

I worked at a large tech company for 3 years before joining a startup, and learned more in the first month at the startup than the full 3 years at the large tech company. I was able to design and implement a service in a matter of days, whereas at the large tech company those 3 days would easily spent convincing people that the service is needed in the first place. Direct exposure to customers also is really interesting and changes you as an engineer.

It's definitely a no guardrail environment, in the early days we had a bug that directly cost us a large customer pilot. No better teacher than experience, we did not make that mistake twice.
This is what I would recommend, but there are also other OpenCL stacks you could use. At least two from AMD (amdgpu-pro and ROCm), and and there is also one from the Mesa project (Clover).
Unless it's not immediately obvious-- there are no OpenBSD developers associated with this project, past or present. This isn't some splitting of existing communities.

There was nothing "hard" about this fork, it's funny how a few GNU aficionados think that deleting a few freely redistributeable firmware files constitutes significant "new code" contributions.

It's in the same vein as projects like "libertybsd" or "libreboot"-- misleading people into thinking they are anything but a agenda driven project, onboarding like-minded and inexperienced new users, meanwhile offloading most (if not all) the support/technical burden on other communities.
It's a pity that Hofmann never actually experienced a full-on psychedelic, "cosmic" trip, complete with a sense of unity, love, and perhaps ego dissolution, but only ever had a bad trip and some relatively minor effects from a few low dose trips.

I'm sure he was aware of the much more profound effects that were possible on LSD, given a high enough dose and the right set and setting, but for some reason he never chose to explore those. I wonder if he'd tried truly psychedelic doses of any other substances.

I'd like to highlight similar issues. I've been a fanatical AMD supporter since 2008 and refuse to buy or invest in learning about Nvidia GPUs because I honestly care about open source drivers even if that means giving up opportunities. I'm very interested in experimenting with neural networks as an amateur.

I couldn't figure out what ROCM is, what it does, what parts of it I was meant to install (if anything?) and what was a brand name for coordinated upstream efforts in the linux kernel. Does it have an API? Who is meant to be using it for what? I dunno.

I honestly don't understand. I don't know anything about CUDA because, as mentioned, no Nvidia GPU in a decade. My theory is if I pour all my effort into learning about Vulkan that will be good enough. I'll run tensorflow on my CPU or just do without and suffer for it. Whatever ROCMs use case and target audience is I hope it isn't me.

No, science isn't pure philosophy; the default position should be what we have evidence to support, that's what empiricism is all about. Many things can be logical that aren't true.
>> Equity agreements should not be intentionally confusing or designed to screw over employees.

You should feel lucky if confusing is the problem. I think the bigger problem usually is -- you often cant see the cap table. If you cant see the cap table and the preferred overhang, there is no way to realistically understand where you stand in the scheme of things. Confusing can be overcome with some search, but "opaque" cannot be.
They can be right even if your two options are either a startup or a tech giant. They have their downsides as does every job, even freelance.

I like being freelance but getting the motivation in those first couple of weeks was pretty hard. I also found it tougher to sell my services because I never really had to do it before. Probably some other stuff I can't think of off the top of my head? I don't think any type of work is perfect although I'd go for freelance any day of the week.

That's the back link to switch to the previous app, but it does not let you navigate within an app.

Having said that, yes, that criticism mostly applied to the "flat" iOS 7 (released in 2013), and some of the problems Apple has fixed in the intervening years, fortunately.
Never really considered that but I guess the selling point would be the fact that users get notified when their favorite artists release new songs. My app is one of many that does song pulling but it uses the Spotify api, one means to an end.

I believe 3D Touch is disabled by default on devices with 3D Touch. You may have re-enabled it in Accessibility...or you have Touch Duration set to Fast on one and Slow on the other. Or I could be wrong and Apple changed it so 3D Touch is enabled by default on those devices that support it, but it was certainly disabled by default during the Beta phases.

Regardless, it's still available as an option for phones with the 3D Touch hardware.

In hindsight, should Boeing have increased the Max's ground clearance before fitting it with a large engine? I read that Boeing did not want to do this because that would have meant that the Max would not be compatible with existing airport infra. But if competitor Airbus already has a larger ground clearance then surely Boeing would be no worse off?
