@jaw - I have; but first, a rant:

Architecture with a big A is something that is often looked down upon in this community, because it has the bad rap of being over-engineered, not scalable, "done by contractors who don't know anything/are trying to pad billable hours", et cetera.

I can see this in the kind of schlock being peddled as the next great front-end/web solution; usually done by people who would do very well to revisit the last 30-40 years in thinking about the Design of software. Thinking that testing and TDD are replacements for and/or better than static typing is Pretty Fucking Stupid™.

Design Patterns as given by GoF, Fowler, etc are more often than not questionable, but design patterns extracted from your code base are worth their weight in gold.

We have a beefy .NET codebase composed of some 80+ projects (used to be more then we trimmed it down) integrating with 25+ external data sources/APIs and we have leveraged every single fucking thing out there to make sense of it and not let it overwhelm our systems.

Type-level invariants along with a layered validation system is definitely something that we made a bet early on and it paid off. It's very hard to mess it up once it is in place, and not that difficult to understand.

Some of the things we applied are discussed in Enterprise Architecture by Fowler, the Domain Driven Design book also discusses it a bit. Your own application of these principles is what matters, and that's where things get hairy.

.NET/C# is nice because it provides enough facilities through Reflection and Attributes to be able to "pattern"-ize some of the things that come up, and there are other languages that do it better still. I really like Ruby's method_missing and I wish that C# provided an equivalent, but to my knowledge most of the approaches within C# to do something like that are kludges at best.
What kind of tolerances do you get on your plywood cuts? Lasersaur is claiming they get down to 30μm on some materials. I'd think plywood would be more like 200μm, from what I've read, but I don't have any real experiences.
The ADA exists and for good reasons.
Ditto for welding equipment. A switched mode stick welder weighs next to nothing and will happily max out whatever socket you plug it in to. Steady as can be too under fluctuating load.

Make of that what you will.
This is such an objectionable attitude and more or less nakedly entrenches existing privilege and social structure.

For all those founders out there, just keep grinding and ignore self serving VC nonsense: good businesses are a heck of a lot rarer than people with money and if you've got one they'll swarm to you like rats to a sewer and then you can pick whichever one you like or none.
If you sell me a "Pro" machine, I expect to be able to fully utilize all its resources for as long as I need to. While I don't need full power all the time (once or twice a month I need it for more than 10 minutes), when I need it, I'd prefer it to be available for more than a couple minutes at a time and not make my laptop sound like a hair drier and compute like an Atom laptop.

Having said that, my 15" MBP is sufficient for my needs, but I'd not recommend it for anyone doing heavy numeric lifting. Or compiling large volumes of code.
You're assuming I'm not already in Panama at the time.
Is this true though? I feel like encrypted and redundantly stored in some cold web storage would be inexpensive and reliable, whereas with paper... Well, I lose those all the time, but I have files in cold storage that I guess by now are 15 years old or so.

Another tough part of using paper is that you'd need to do it frequently. I get so many emails, and I'd like to keep a good portion of them. I'd be printing every week. It would be pretty expensive and inconvenient.
This is completely irrelevant to the conversation about technical solutions. My example is just about probabilities and how to use them for bot detection.
The article is a bit sensationalist, but judging by early comments I'm really disappointed how many tech people here are ambivalent to these sort of major UX fails.
This is a nice article to prove it can be done, but honestly I would rather setup a dedicated gaming rig. If you're serious about gaming you'll soon rack enough hours where your EC2 Spot costs exceed the initial investment in your own hardware.

Also the open UDP and TCP to 0.0.0.0/0 in the security group made me cringe. At least set it to your current IP /32 and perhaps set a script that watches your public IP and updates the SG automatically when it changes.
As for the A-pillars, I read about a solution somewhere, goes like this:

- There is a camera on the 'out' side of the A-pillar;

- There is a screen on the 'in' side of the A-pillar;

- The car tracks driver's gaze and projects the camera view on the A-pillar screen, so as to stitch together the views from the windshield, A-pillar screen, and the side window.

The result being, it looks like the A-pillar is not there at all.

I wonder if some car already has that. Iirc some teenager presented similar solution on a science fair.
The role of CEO is a good analogy with governor.

(There usually are layers of responsibility above both; the board for a CEO and the people for a governor)

If you look at it in those terms, I think it's more likely that they mean that voters would be well served by setting aside other interests and reforming the legislative process further (the article discusses various reforms) so that the governor is not able to take actions that are effectively unilateral, and also by not re-electing (or perhaps in the extreme, recalling) the governor.
Let it sit for a few minutes before attempting to crank the car otherwise the starter motor and the battery are in competition and that leaves too little for the starter motor. First you need to bring the battery up to a voltage higher than what's left under maximum load by the starter motor. 10V should do it for most cars.
Neither can I, at my level. I don't think anyone can. (Of course, there are those with a lot more than me. Maybe they can... but I doubt it. So far as I know, the only real level in karma is at 500, when you can downvote comments.)
Maybe a gyroscope + glass of water ?
As one user alludes to below, it did originate from an overuse of omnibus bills in the 1930s [1]. Here's something important to realize:

"Neither the framers of the 1930 amendment, nor the voters who ratified it, had any intention of creating a unilateral executive power to create laws that the legislature did not approve. Instead, they sought to ensure that each separate item that might become law as part of an appropriation bill would have the approval of the governor, in addition to that of the senate and the assembly. [2]"

And guess what? The Frankenstein veto doesn't exist anymore! It was removed in 2008 [3]. The Wikipedia article should more explicitly state that.

Note that line-item vetoing still exists widely across the US and is quite useful.

From an absurdist standpoint, I find the Frankenstein veto hilarious because it's, to use the term from the Wikipedia article, "quasi-legislating." You're not actually adding content to the bill, but you're changing the meaning! It's twisted and brilliant at the same time.

One commenter says "how can this possibly be legal?" Well, it's not anymore! But it did make for some clever and humorous legislating. Like, look at link [1] and find the picture half-way down with yellow highlights. You have to have a certain audacity to do that.

Also, I'm from Wisconsin and would love to see Jim Doyle fight the Bears at Lambeau. He probably would have wiped the floor with Cutler...

I understand the point you're making but the difference is increased use of these websites is not what's increasing the size of the sites themselves.

Probably not. The point is to be "a big fish in a small pond". SF and Silicon Valley are both very big ponds, so if you're not there take advantage of the fact, playing to your strengths.

One option is "be in the local pool" (a Netherlands investor is probably more interested in companies she can simply visit and where she speaks the same language of the people there). Be talked about in the local startup & tech community. Talk about the actual results you're getting ("we're getting 10s of organic signups and Twilio recommends us to their customers -- without them even talking to us").

The other option is "be in the nerd community pool": if your SAAS is aimed at "metering microservices to manage service cost" (have no idea if that example is really a "thing") then make sure the founders are usefully active on the important microservices blogs, write some authoritative articles for the sites, contribute non-trivial code (even if it's something you need have have in place anyway for your solution to be useful) to some relevant GitHub repos in the area.
Both of those methods are accessing the public markets. Private investment means investing in non publicly traded companies. Like venture capital... For example
I am told that Firefox Nightly now allows you to use keyboard shortcuts to seek the video. Part of the problem here is that there are some sites that have special logic around seeking, so having playback controls on the PiP popup can cause the original page's custom controls to get confused or out of sync.
We have no shortage of politicians promising to put an end to omnibus budget bills, though! Unfortunately they seem to forget about those promises once they get elected...
Not solved for the foster care system where kids are temporarily living in the wrong school district, so it doesn’t make sense to move them into a new school.

Why would this be attractive to SWEs? Seems like something that would be more relevant to gamers.

The post was asking how to find investors, not how you would do it in some ideal world.

If you don't want to be disappointed by the wizard, don't look behind the curtain.
Yes. Some would say all languages, but there is Forth (which has its merits).

Java is essentially C++ as of 1991, with GC and interfaces tacked on, no user value types, and a whole series of misunderstandings of fundamentals. It represented a marvelous opportunity, squandered: abandoning C compatibility, there are so many things that could be done better. Instead, they copied the mistakes and added new ones.
Interesting piece until the guardian adds this random piece of dismissiveness at the bottom:

“Theirs is that old, radically conservative, message: everything must change so that everything can stay the same.”

Which is the opposite of what he is saying.

The press are political actors. Until they admit that they too are responsible for creating the system as it is and critique themselves, they are just as dishonest as any other politician.
Thanks!

This is really helpful.

This is a Google project though. I haven't dug too deeply but maybe it does share something with the internal fibers? (Which I agree are just amazing)

No, a CEO is a dictator. In the US, the state governor is a significantly different role from a dictator.

Like the comment above yours says there are algorithms for SSP that are polynomial in the target value of the sum. For values on the order of something someone would buy with a credit card I think they should be practical.

See:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset_sum_problem#Pseudo-poly...

The problem only becomes really difficult when the numbers are so large that it takes a large number of bits to represent them.
If they did all these things they wouldn't even think to reach out to you in the first place.
The Bloomberg billionaires index does exactly this... Out private billionaires.

First off it's hard being a billionaire and people not knowing. You're going to make a splash somehow. But there's still plenty of billionaires, especially in emerging market countries, that have still to be uncovered.
I thought this might have been some Steam tie-in or otherwise not a Firefox built-in feature, never clicked it.. and now I can't even try it as the button's not appearing, it seems pretty unstable. Not that I really want to... This solves a problem I've never had. What's so hard about moving the video to a new window, or if your screen is too small moving the window to a new monitor? In Linux you can also make the window smaller to just have the video visible and then make it "always on top" of whatever else you're doing.

I stated as much in my comment. You can't just take an exponential trendline and plot it out and make predictions from it. But at what point does it start to slow down? Before a million infected - not a virologist, probably, but by how much?

Before a billion infected, well obviously. Flu infects about 9-45 million people a year, so there's a ballpark model. If we take 45M and 2% mortality as the worst case scenario - and really, it could be worse than that even. It's still a million deaths. That hasn't been seen since the Spanish flu at the end of World War I.

I am told one problem with the native macOS PiP window is that it does not allow programs to configure which playback controls to show. There is a Firefox bug in file for the workspace issue. Chromium works around this and Firefox is likely to use the same approach.
Not OP, but I used RH 6 Linux on mine, and it worked like a charm.
We need to invent the idea of well-formed bills, with requirements of clarity, factorability and maybe focus. This probably means we need a new branch of the judiciary to adjudicate whether bills and edits thereto are well-formed before they can be enacted. This would allow you to make a precise definition of a line-item, and therefore a line-item veto, without allowing monstrosities like in the article, among other benefits.

Edit: alternatively, just don't allow bills that do more than one thing.

Have you tried the Pilot C4?
the entire concept reminds me too much of iframes, embedded flash and Java applets. i can see many security problems coming with this in the future. especially if they try to make it a real window that can jump tabs and stay pinned, which seems to be what most people here would really want and an obvious next feature.

think about click jacking, address bar spoofing, and similar mosaic style hijacking. that's not even getting into potential CORS and origin spoofing potential.
Hmm, that worked for me in i3 before but not in bspwm.

I tried FF PiP recently, but I have "bspwm config honor_size_hints true" and that makes the window resize itself until it's the size of a postage stamp.

The above is a known bug in FF, though apparently fixed in FF73: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1600414
You're paying attention to outliers. Most people don't have astronomical student debts, and most that due are in general in extremely high paying professions. Student debt is a problem, but most people do no have 100k in debt for creative writing, etc.

The easy solution is to limit government student loans to 20k and be done with it.
I said I'm watching it and have planned for a worst-case eventuality. That's telling of what? My paranoia? Or just that I like plan things more than you do? I wouldn't read too much into that, it's not charitable. I'm probably a couple standard deviations smarter than you would guess, maybe smarter than you. Don't be dismissive.
I will say that even if you don't read the bulk of this link, the PDF document itself is a very visually pleasing layout, and the author clearly knows how to design, vary, and break up text to make it more interesting. It's worth a look just to see it briefly.

I will just add that I can recognize good technical writing in 3 stages of sophistication:

Stage 1) Someone who has barely mastered the topic and is at the most basic level just telling you the steps to reproduce the result or operate the items or workflow. Once you learn from the material presented (unless extremely complex or required to keep as reference), you rarely go back and study and appreciate this kind of writing repeatedly.

Stage 2) Someone who has done the analysis and exercise enough that the writing evolves into not just instructions or rote description, but narration through the reasons why they did it this way, the pitfalls to watch out for, what not to do. Starts you thinking about what to do next.

Stage 3) Someone whose telling of the technical detail is so fluid and practiced that the basics are unquestioned -- the writing now includes well-informed opinions and jokes about past attempts at the outcome, why they failed and their historical context in technical terms. Gives advice on the difficulties that will be encountered and the limits of the method. The writing is so informative that you may return to read it again and again throughout your career.

One of my favorite texts that reaches Stage 3 is Numerical Recipes in C (which unfortunately I don't have much occasion to refer to nowadays), and the way that programming philosophy, advice, and technical instruction combines in that work is very impressive. Also, many of Griffiths' physics texts, who manages to write with both technical and conversational/narrative mastery.

If only more writers could be like this.

I've always been curious about traveling while famous. You generally have to show a passport at airports, hotels, etc.. So I always wondered how famous people moved around with any kind of annonimity.

Surely a fake passport is far too risky for legal reasons? Yet it would solve a lot of their problems when combined with sunglasses and a cap...

I guess what I'm asking is, what would be the "riskiest" country that you would actually entertain the possibility of visiting without serious precautions?
There is such a thing as a-causal trade. Newcomb problem, prisoner's dilemma, that sort of things.

It would be nice to have judicial review of all bills as they pass, for constitutionality as well.

Some would argue that it would slow down the legislative process. But looking at the sheer size of the US Code, I would argue that it's not at all a bad thing.
I really like the Toner style. Simple, and high-contrast.
When it just you and clients paying there are two parties in close alignment.

The investor third party doesn't want what you or your clients want.

You want to build a good product that people like and use.

Clients want a good product.

Investors want to increase capital.

So, while you and clients walk a path, together. The investor is there for a different reason.

And that reason can create uncomfortable situations.

You and the clients can solve problems together.

How does the investor solve their issue? Where does their increase in capital come from? Your time and your clients money.
Both tbh.

I probably should have mentioned we are B2B in an industry with very long sales cycles.

We/our government is completely unwilling to invest the multi-trillion dollar expense of creating a permanent moon colony. In light of that, I believe arguments to the effect of "a moon base would make Mars easier" are baseless since creating that type of installation on the moon would dwarf the cost of a single shot to Mars and back. In light of that, our current moon efforts are nothing but make-work doing things we've already done because Mars is actually hard.

There's nothing wrong with looking reality square in the face. It's as unobjectionable a thing as I could imagine. There were no value judgments made, just observations.

If you want to improve things (and there is much to improve), seeing things as they are is the best first step.
One bill one thing, would cure so much of what's currently wrong with government.
