Apple Watch was very much marketed as a fashion accessory first. That didn’t work.

Au contraire, that was _vital_ to shifting the public discussion. Right at the beginning, public sentiment was "what? >$400 for a watch? are you crazy?" To stifle that thinking, Apple brilliantly went for the fashion accessory approach and announced the absurdly high-end Watch Edition at >$10,000 ... suddenly discussion went from "$400 is too much" to "$10,000 is absurd, but I can do $400."

Once the Overton Window for watches was shifted away from "vs $5 cheap watch" to ">$400 is reasonable", then Apple could shift the discussion to "...and look at all these other things you get besides time!"

They couldn't get to "...and health" until they got to "...reasonable price." Having achieved both, people buy an Apple Watch for all occasions, because ... well ... it's what sensible tech-connected people do.
Gavin being silenced is just a tip of the iceberg out of the continual banning and censorship of people discussing ideas around scaling Bitcoin Core chain since 2016. Most of the folks have left for other projects since then and all BTC is left is as a tether propped exchange pair while merchants give up on accepting BTC (thanks RBF too).

Bitcoin Cash on the other hand has been gaining merchant acceptance and I've enjoyed using BCH same like I did enjoy using BTC since 2012. The honeybadger of P2P electronic cash is truly unstoppable.

Practicing for coding interviews are to FAANG companies what the SATs were for the Ivy League.

It's not about how smart you are or how well you will do. It's about how good you are at studying interview problems/the SAT. And even then it's a crap shoot if your admission reviewer/interviewer was in a good mood that day.

As much as it's suboptimal/unfair/whatever your objection is, your options are to not play the game (and miss out on the wealth of opportunity or cash) or to dive on in and accept reality.

Thanks for this reply. I guess I now understand what people mean by "space is expanding".

If I understand correctly, space is what supports matter? Like a table supports dishes for instance (well, except that space is also "inside" particules) — and so if the table grows, the dishes don't.

I never actually even thought of what "space" means before. I thought that when we talked about space, matter was included in that (in the sense that quarks or whatever is the smallest — known? — particle take some "space" ; they're not points that can't be measured — or are they? ^^').

Anyway, it sparkled back an old interest of mine for astrophysics (well, I read one book from Hubert Reeves when I was a kid — and loved it).

Thanks again :)

(oh, as an added bonus: I guess we have no idea _why_ space is expanding, right? Because, I mean, it's a bit mind boggling...)

Edit: to be a bit clearer; I thought space was just void that "always" existed and extended indefinitely. Like, there was nothing except a small point with all the energy in the universe ; "everywhere" else a bit nothingness. Then, bim, the big bang, and matter was just booming away and making stars and planets and then galaxies and all that was just floating in this void/nothingness that was always there, never changing, still extending indefinitely. And that was why we were saying the universe was expanding — because galaxies were still speeding away from each others due to the big bang ; like an explosion with no friction perpetuing indefinitely.
Now I guess I'm really confused about what "space" is...

Python 2 and Python 3 are different languages that get installed side by side.

Two completely independently developed C compilers, or independent implementations of Common Lisp are much more compatible with each other than are Python 2 and Python 3.

They could as well have different names (think Perl vs. Rakudo).

Racket is more compatible with Scheme than Python 3 is with Python 2, yet has a different name, for good reasons.

Both Python 2 and Python 3 could respectively use a simple versioning numbering scheme. Python 3 version 1, version 2, version 3, ...
It might be easier, but it's trivial to come up with cases where you cannot generate an example that completely satisfies given JSON schema. It feels like this only works for some specific rigid JSON protocols. You also cannot restrict the types to anything more specific than JSON primitive types.

A "better", certainly more common solution is to generate the type based on whatever source code is generating the JSON, if you have access to it (or have the API provided generate the signature for you).

Panamax is simply a much less important standard for China than for the USA because of proximity to the Panama Canal. Generally they can (and do) support larger ships but often with lower draft. Much of their shipping infrastructure is better for modern larger capesize vessels than the US.

With the huge decline of unions there's no way the old ways are set in stone. A freshly unionized field should take care to make sure new members don't loose the politics and enthusiasm, leading to decline a generation later.
Agreed. I'm much more comfortable with "this is my take on this subject, and here's how I'm a bit biased, but I'll try anyway to be as objective as I can as well" than "this is the way things are"-style proclamations.

It's not the total number but the frequency. If your average tenure is around two years then you should be totally fine. Anything between 1-2 years might be fine or might raise some questions. Below one year, then yeah, it might start looking bad.

If you think the total number is a problem, just start dropping the oldest jobs off your resume, and don't list university graduation years.
I'm always surprised when I find out more people don't know about this (or other vertical-tabs addons). I typically have dozens of tabs and keep them open for weeks at a time (ff is set to restore previous session. So most are usually unloaded, but I also have an addon to unload tabs at-will if it's ever a problem). Horizontal tabs feel so arcane after getting used to it, I'm surprised it's not a standard feature yet.
Linux has an equivalent feature available through the "auxiliary vector," a set of data passed as the secret fourth parameter to main() / on the stack at program startup (after the secret third parameter, envp). http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/getauxval.3.html and https://lwn.net/Articles/519085/ have a description of the auxiliary vector. One key, AT_RANDOM, contains 16 bytes (128 bits) of random data which libc uses for stack protector cookies. glibc uses this to implement stack and pointer protector cookies.

(Unfortunately, glibc uses this data directly as stack and pointer protector cookies, instead of deriving something from it, which means it feels a little risky to use this to initialize a userspace PRNG. I guess you shouldn't be leaking cookies....)

Linux added this in v2.6.29 (2009) in https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/f06295b4 , and glibc in 2009 added support for using it if available to set up cookies (it previously read from /dev/urandom). That said, I don't really think the "we're the only OS" game is a game worth playing - if it's a security improvement, it's best if everyone has it, regardless of OS!

It's not just about having a name listed in an instruction book or in an end roll, and never has been. You know where most TV/film credits are actually seen? On IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and other sites. I can go look up my cousin who works in the film industry and see every film he's ever worked on: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4253724/ That's the primary way that film credits are consumed, and it would be great if we had something similar in our industry (the closest we get is a list of open source contributions e.g. on your GitHub profile). But, for example, I've contributed code to Google Cloud Platform, Android, and the Google Search app, but you'd never know it unless you worked at Google and looked through the monorepo very closely. The closest I can get would be to write my own credits page, but how would anyone verify that?

So it's fine if you don't care, but plenty of other people do care about getting credit for their work, and to them it is quite important. This describes most people in many industries. So yeah, it is important.

Small mammal populations in a eucalypt forest affected by fire and drought [2009][1] tracks 5 species in a particular area from 1970 until 2005.

Only the abstract is available (unfortunately), but by my reading of that it shows that a 1973 bushfire wiped out all 5 species in the area ("Following the 1972 fire, numbers fell to the lowest level recorded during the study and each population subsequently disappeared from the plot between the 1973 and 1974 winter censuses").

In further reading (I read a lot of abstracts trying to find one that had numbers!) it appears this pattern of some surviving the immediate fire but 18 months later having disappeared dur to predators and lack of habitat is fairly common.

As a long time Chrome user, and someone who (admittedly) said to a FF fan about an year ago, that it's too late for FF to catch up to Chrome now. I gave FF another shot about 6 months ago, and I'm liking it more every month since then.

It has been my primary browser outside of work, the major reason I use Chrome now is for Chrome Dev Tools.

Also, some websites don't behave well in FF and I find that most of the time it's because of the site tracking being blocked. So not a big deal

> [...] MyFireWatch shows exactly where those active fires are.

I didn’t link to MyFireWatch precisely because it is showing ‘hotspots’ from the past 72 hours, which is not necessarily the same thing as mapping actual reported fires, hence the confusion of some of the maps talked about in the article. The data on MyFireWatch on areas which have burned is also very inaccurate for some states (Tasmania and Victoria at least).

MyFireWatch explicitly says not to use their map in an emergency[0], because the ‘latest’ hotspot data can be up to four hours old, can be up to 2km out of place (5km in extremes), and may not show fires obscured from or otherwise undetectable from the satellite.

If your database offers the capability to use row-level security (aka virtual private database), that should be your first port of call. PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle DB DB 2 support this capability. I'm sure others do as well.

As for time limits, you can also look for other ways to constrain usage. I know that Oracle, DB2 (on some platforms) and Greenplum are able to set workload limits, so that queries can be constrained from acting as noisy neighbours to other queries on the same data. A less specific way to achieve this would be setting OS-level resource limits on the database processes themselves, such as a kubernetes request/limit setting.

But really, my best advice is to find a capable and experienced DBA for your particular database system. It's likely that a mature database has several ways to secure your data that you might not yet have thought of.

Unions lost for a couple of reasons: their feet were cut out from under them via outsourcing/globalization. They didn’t/couldn’t picket moving factories overseas and both political parties were complicit in this.

Similarly the economy moved toward services and unions didn’t prepare for that.

Three unions ossified, became political and self-serving (not looking after their workers solely but looking after the org for its own sake and its bosses.)
