Big-A Agile is often described in Utopian terms. Which is unfortunate, but little-a agile is understood to be a thing you grow towards with constant improvements and changes to both the process and the system being developed based on frequent, ideally continuous, feedback. Boeing, in my experience, didn't want to change their processes, they wanted to run the same processes faster. Which is decidedly not agile (and I hate Scrum for this).

The form that I've seen them adopt on programs I've been involved with is heavily inspired by Scrum. So they have sprints, they accept product releases from the subs and will, ostensibly, test it (running the integration lab they have the more complete test infrastructure, in theory). But, in practice, the released code isn't tested for months, but development continues, monthly or bi-weekly releases continue, and no feedback is ever provided to the developers. Finally, 6-12 months later most of the builds are discarded, the most recent one is tested, and it's discovered that, true-to-Waterfall, the wrong thing was built. Patches are quickly developed and applied, tests pass, and something is released to the customers.

Months or years later, the software is found to be defective, the test suite is found to be insufficient (again), and the process repeats.
I think you should put this in the project readme. I just kind of glossed over the description while reading it before I checked the HN comments, but knowing who you are makes the project more interesting and significant to me.
Similar experience, except a ATT 3B2 (and thus no job control). I would have read the man page, but there were none, nor were any books available.

I finally just pulled the plug out of the wall.

It's not much of an exaggeration to say that I became a lifelong emacs user because the start screen even back then explained how to exit.
Announcing far and wide that the Universe is certainly 96 percent invisible stuff that has never been identified in any way is not what a real scientist would do, if it mattered in any way.

All we really know is that the equations we have don't match the universe we see. Dark-this and dark-that are no better than guesses that seem to bring things back in line with our favored theories, until some actual mechanism is identified.

> Fukushima caused the end of nuclear energy in Germany

The end of nuclear was decided by the red/green government a few years earlier. The conservative successor government (Merkel) tried to reverse that decision and after Fukushima they joined the German mainstream position to end nuclear and to invest further money into a new type of distributed electricity production with the focus on renewable energy.
EDLC's operate at several gigavolts per meter, across a gap only atoms thick. They actually do it the same way as a cell wall -ELD stands for electrostatic double layer- by lining up two sheets of polar molecules, with charges facing each other.

Yep. They couldn't do nothing because they had to posture themselves as strong/appease citizens upset about the general, so the best option was to make a big, splashy attack that would still leave the U.S. the option of calling everything settled. If Americans died, the U.S. would have no choice but to escalate further.

I have been surprised to discover how many people know very little about geography but even more surprised to learn what a high proportion of people who do know geography know it mostly from military history, which is a stereotypically masculine interest.
I can vouch for AKG myself. I've been using a pair of K530 LTD headphones daily for 11,5 years now. Sound never changed. The velvet pads and the leather band are still intact. Only the letters of the logo have come off. I reckon they aren't even of the supposedly better built made-in-Austria series.

I did a Goenka 10 day a few years ago and I agree with a lot of points the writer makes. It bothered me a little that there was no way to ask questions and getting a useful answer. I asked the teacher a few questions but the answer was pretty much always a variation of “just keep meditating”. I found this a little frustrating. I have asked Tibetan and Thai Buddhist teachers similar questions and they usually gave very detailed and practical answers that brought my practice and understanding to a better level. I think the Goenka seminars are good but I think it’s necessary to learn from other teachers.
My favourite example of this is /dev/tty, where "tty" means Teletype, a technology which predates computers entirely: four of the control characters in ASCII have existed, with their current numeric values, since 1901.
Completely agree. But I find that it happens not just on HN, but on other high-quality boards as well. (It would be improper of me to make the remark without confessing that I've done this a few times myself.)
I personally don't see much use for all those fancy features over a simple but adequate minidlna server, except I don't get why after all those years no one implemented proper automatic library rescan for it. There are workarounds but it should work OOTB!
Jumping on the 'agree' bandwagon.
>The long term safer option will be to use both types of sensors before together

This 100% is the real target but I'd like to add to it.

Camera-based systems rely on ambient photons arranged in a pre-determinded configuration hitting a sensor.
Lidar-based systems rely on reflected photons hitting a sensor.

What I would prefer to see is a LiDAR/RADAR combination.
When both systems rely on "photons" you suffer the same inherited weaknesses of both.

But split it up and you can be SAFER.

In common parlance nuclear tends to mean nuclear fission, not nuclear fusion.

Though the "technically correct" aspect is that they're both nuclear reactions. I'd say its important to say that they're not cutting themselves off of nuclear fusion research.

I really respect anyone who's chosen to willingly sacrifice their lifestyle to reduce their carbon emissions. Very few people are actually willing to do that.

So I'm curious about your opinion. Do you think that promoting hope that what we're doing is enough is the right play at this point in time? Decades of warning from the scientific community have yielded effectively 0 progress on halting our exponential march towards ecological collapse. Sure, you can argue for marginal progress here and there. But when the likely end goal remains total collapse of civilization and possible extinction of our species, does it really matter?

I know we tend to think of panic and despair as something that prevents us from finding solutions, or even make the problem worse. But maybe pretending that we're going to mostly be OK and figure out climate change is just causing us to be complacent and procrastinate on the problem until it's too late. It may already be too late due to tipping points being triggered.

Like I said, I'd love to hear your thoughts, but I've increasingly started to believe that panic is an idea worth spreading. It may be the only way we can ever hope to collectively wake up and start making the sacrifices necessary to survive this extinction event.
It also produces more per capita as well.
I think the general idea to be able to test bits and pieces of the logic. With an ORM like ActiveRecord, Sequel, or SQLAlchemy, you can split up a much larger query into multiple functions and then test each individual function. It makes it a lot easier to reason about future changes.

I don't know if I agree with a "Query Object" - I don't instantiate objects that much these days, but it's nice to put that logic into a different file than, say, your model or controller.
We brainstormed a bunch of names one day, and Midori won. I think it was Chris Brumme's suggestion.
All EU cars have DRL now. But the LEDs are basically what used to be the marker lights on any headlight (the first step in turning on the headlights). More commonly now they are overlapped with the signal lights so when signaling the LEDs just turn from white to yellow. But they're almost always still in the headlight block. When for some reason a manufacturer decides to put them in the fog lamps they run at reduced intensity. Just like when the fog light turn on towards the side you are cornering to help with more light.
The idea behind trying something new every day is just that I know what are the thing that are possible not to learn it by heart.

For example, Now I know if I need to go to the next instance of the word under the cursror. There's a command for it.
Yes, I am aware of those. However, the kintex PCIe interface is a bit of a pain as it has a TLP straddling mode that can't be disabled, so it will be some time before it's supported as it will require some significant reworking in the PCIe interface modules. I am planning on supporting straddling eventually as this will improve PCIe link utilization on the ultrascale and ultrascale plus parts. If someone wants to donate a board, I can look in to supporting it.
If the US inspections of offshore oil rigs are any indication of our lack of ability to fix things obviously broken, I can't imagine nuclear power plants would be any different, except the risk in a nuclear scenario would be amplified.

Indeed, this does follow a global pattern.

>Astronomers have discovered a world only a little bit bigger than Earth, whirling around a bright star about 31 parsecs from our planet.

Parsec is one of those units that is difficult to remember if you just look at the conversion (1 parsec = 3.26 light years). If you remember how it's defined, however, it somehow becomes easier (for me anyway). One parsec is the distance at which one astronomical unit (AU, mean distance between earth and sun) spans one arcsecond in the sky. One arcsecond, in turn, is 1/3600th of a degree, and is approximately the width of a human hair from 20 meters away.

On a side note, if you think that's small, many stars in the night sky have apparent diameters measured in thousandths of an arcsecond.

This is wild, can you please point to the literature that links Kr85 release into the environment leads definitively to decreasing the atmospheric charge? I was able to source descriptions of how nitrogen fixing is performed by lightning [1], and that Kr85 is released in nuclear fuel re-processing [2], but that Wikipedia article leads to a study [3] that says the release increases conductivity with uncertain meteorologic effects, so I'm stymied trying to look up more detailed explanations of the mechanism behind your fascinating description.

I remember those back in middle school. My history teacher beat on us relentlessly to do them, to the point of having large stacks of paper with lines down the middle in the room and handing out bundles of the same at regular intervals. No one did it unless she was checking for a grade, which was infrequent. I did well in the class, and neither I nor the other A students took notes this way. Just sometimes wrote in the margins like normal people, or underlined something important, then put these into separate documents. Having a sheet of the synthesized "metadata" (dates, contextual bits, etc.) was much more useful than having to page through to get at the information.
I've been trying to remember this site for a long time. This is it! Thanks for posting, couldn't remember what the name was for ages!
Playstation is basically embedded software though, and everything that runs on it has been custom made for it (it’s also interesting that it spun from a Nintendo cooperation, which makes it a very special division compared to the others)

In that respect their MD player was also running decent software, it just didn’t talk to anything not Sony produced.

Anecdotally, they also have a joint venture with Docomo that worked on NFC payment solutions that was super successful with genuinely strong software.

On the music market, I think the lockin wasn’t so much an issue (iPods also locked you in to some extent) than Sony’s desktop software being utter garbage.

I actually bought a Net Walkman at that time because I liked the hardware more, and it was hell: I’m not even sure there was any mac support, I might have run a VM for that, and even in a proper windows environment it was still buggy, extremely time consumming to move tacks to the player, yet limited and low quality. I personally think Sony lost to itself, more than the competition coming for Sony.
I already sacrifice those :D
#1 Don't plan on saving the notecards forever.

Put them in an inbox immediately after writing on the notecard.

At a predetermined time, manage the inbox.

Some of my notecards get stored into folders created for current projects. These folders can be digitized at a later date for archiving and searching. Though, most notecards don't make it that far.

Some notecards represent tasks. Those get recycled as soon as they are completed.

Many notecards head straight to the recycling bin. You'd be surprised how often something seems like a good idea before you write it down.

Most of my process follows the "Getting Things Done"(GTD) framework by David Allen. I highly recommend it.

Best Practices in Financial App Design
These types of planets are known as 'Eyeball planets'. [1] They are hypothesized to have a hot side and a cold side, and potentially a ring around the periphery that is 'just right' where liquid water could form and sustain life.

Not sure if this particular planet would meet those criteria.

"The Pentagon’s first-ever audit discovered major flaws in how it handles IT processes and challenges with its internal tracking databases, but did not discover any major cases of fraud or abuse."

The $400M covers 2.7T of assets, and, as the article lists, is less than 1/30th of one percent of the budget audited.

So it's not as inefficient an audit as listing a number without context implies.
No interest in 40GB phy?

Right now, 40GB is the sweet spot in lower cost surplus hardware: E.g. you can get Arista DCS-7050QX-32 for about $500 shipped on ebay all day long.

100GB/25GB switches are still really expensive.
People keep saying that for extreme climates on Earth and are then constantly surprised by the variety and abundance of life - admittedly sometimes just microbiology - found in those locations. So I wouldn’t write off a planet just for tidal lock.
The fact we have people running around calling people "gas shills" as if the gas lobby of all industries is paying people to infiltrate hacker news says a lot about the current state of discourse around climate change.
