New cars are way safer than the ones from the 1980s, though. In just a risk-minimization strategy I prefer a new car with Alexa over a forty year old car without.

The privacy risk is low with the new one, but the death risk is high with the old one.

Rolled my car and I just crawled out of the wreck and walked away with a mild concussion.
Found another article [1] that says she was a lead author on IPCC, so she is counting the 2007 award. Wikipedia mentions a specific IPCC report [2]. She is listed in Chapter 8 as one of many of the lead authors.

Watching Android descend from a place of dorky stability to sleek sealed glitch-city, kinda makes me think it's the institutions, as opposed to the tooling, that's behind the plunge in the quality of mainstream software.
Other (binary) distros are solving for a different problem: providing a good-enough generic base that runs on most systems.

If you want everything micro-optimized to your particular system's hardware configuration, you know where to find Gentoo.
They've had similar thing to callAsFunction in Dart for many years now (maybe the start). I've written many thousands of lines of Dart code, and I've never used it once, and I don't like it.
So you're easily dismissing the idea that Clojure might have become more mature, ergo more appealing?
It's an extremely pragmatic choice, striving for elegance and simplicity, whereas Scala is rather more confusing than straightforward.

I've been at it just as long. I've been certified in a multi-week course to work as a developer (around 2000-2002) in a waterfall system that included a VCS and some issue tracking I believe.

It was always a "no true scotsman" issue. If it didn't work, it was because we didn't adhere to it and didn't gather the requirements completely enough. So, sure, waterfall never existed in the sense that it never worked out, but it certainly existed in the sense that it was pursued to the tune of countless man hours and countless dollars.

OP here. HN moderators are right in flagging the post. Not because of the content of the Wikipedia article, but because of the plenty of vitriolic comments it caused. Their posting policy probably has to do with such situations.

The idea was to consider the historical criticism of capitalism in a modern setting (e.g., how effective is the market in addressing economic inequality?). The discussion got out of control, though.
> But this makes their bids higher, so they’re often underbid by novice consultancies who don’t have share this mindset...)

Or the bid has no clause about documentation at all!
it helped me to understand that the tools that i was using sucked. I used to work with vim without asynchronous builds. Once upon a time that was good enough, but then they started to use dockerized builds that take ages. Now With asynchronous builds I am no longer blocked waiting for it to compile/link whatever.

as a result i brushed up my vim scripts and put them here: https://github.com/MoserMichael/myenv/blob/master/VIMENV.md
That's what I was also wondering. I've got an old Lenovo SL500 with a C2D/3GB RAM sitting behind my TV for streaming/web browsing. Currently got Mint/MATE running on it (I know it's not the fastest thing around, it was just a quick setup for something basic and not too visually "offputting" for others in the house).

The hardware is old, sure, but I don't need it badly enough to justify building/buying something else and I had it laying around from the mid-2000's when I was testing WiMAX rollout in my city. Figured it would get a bit more use instead of living on the "old hardware" shelf (shelves) in the basement.
Thanks for the vote of confidence. I think it's early to make concrete plans though. I have a few other ideas to try out before I turn to academic research.
Critical security updates for all active Node.js releases
I am not management, but I give recognition when appropriate anyway. I usually do so through email (typically at the start of a necessary email such as a status update, an analysis, etc.) and verbally during gossip sessions ("Joe's help with X was invaluable.")

I also make it a point to publicly credit whoever came up with a brilliant idea or solution that I'm using, so everyone knows that it came from them and not me.

I think that my coworkers appreciate that sort of recognition (informal from peers) more than official corporate recognition. At least, I know that I do!

> Right now I can hear my neighbor upstairs walking around on the hardwood floors all of our apartments have with his hard-soled shoes like he's been doing for the past hour, the traffic outside because apparently density should only exist next to busy arterials in the city where I live, planes loudly going overhead because the cloud ceiling is lower and they're taking a more direct route to the airport, and now the backup generator for the newly-constructed senior home is running its weekly test.

Cities grew too quickly and are now kind of like the startup that never planned for its explosive growth and is struggling to cope trying to keep the wheels from falling off. A paradigm shift is needed, and will come about at some point- I'm just not sure when, and in what form.

Or I'll just move to Montana and do a self-sustainable ranch(hah). I don't necessarily want to be that far out, but looking at the way things are going, wife and I rarely go out anymore anyways due to the overcrowding, so the benefits of having a city is rapidly diminishing.
The pricing game in the medical field is not that though, it's just a ridiculous tradition. They give hugely inflated prices then accept a fraction of that from insurance companies because it was their real price anyway. If any uninsured individual (e.g. with good credit they want to protect) gets ensnared by this and ends up paying their 3x number it's totally unfair.

when they are selling similar procedures for elective or cosmetic surgery, like plastic surgery patients, the prices they ask are much more competitive.

I use Gargoyle on my Archer C7 v2. This thread (https://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=11896) says that C7 v5 is supported.
I've taken the MOOC version of this course and it was very poorly explained. I hope the content and lecturing has changed since 2013 because the content itself is really interesting.

I wasn't impressed with the quality of the book as well. I did learn quite a few methods there (minhash) that I got to use later so thanks for that, but compared to MLPR, Learning from Data, or TESL books the quality of the former pales.
Understanding GauGAN Part 1
The other important thing to take into account is the vast heterogeneity of cancers. Cancers have been shown to be VERY diverse in their genomic expression profile, meaning you're probably looking at a very small pinhole compared to the entire tumor profile if you sample via biopsy. This diversity helps explains why cancers may initially respond to a specific targeted therapy, but then may reoccur with resistance initial therapy.
I have never in 25 years had a Linux system that "fails to restart sometimes". His Ubuntu machine probably has hardware problems.

Real world example (slightly annonymized). You have a 50 FTE "billing and collections department". You can outsource, but at a certain scale it makes sense to build your own.

How do you motivate these people? Or manage their performance? Or manage a good outcome for the busieness, the payor and the client?

This wasn't a hospital setting. Much lower acuity. Upon joining they measured exactly this: CPT codes, bills, A/R, etc. 95% of the time those metrics correlate with their job: getting your complex insurance to reimburse for a procedure they administered.

It's a) not clear that's what you should measure, but let's assume it's not the worst thing in the world, b) straightforward how you can get the "evil" white board example you mentioned.

Not saying this is good or bad and American healthcare is arguably broken. But just another example to maybe calibrate your view.
Open-plan offices are but one of many symptoms of the much larger problem in the software
engineering industry today: nobody in "the business" understands what we do. I started
working professionally in the industry in the late 1980s. Since that time, I regret to say
that the people who hire we software engineers don't see us as anything but factory labor.

To wit:

- We've evolved into a world with "Agile", which our paymasters have defined
as the equivalent of warehouse/factory/shop floor process. Each engineer is
"the same"; thus, swappable;

- In this view of the world, the only valuable thing to do is the tiny little
sliver of work in front of you. Spending time on anything related
to real engineering is verboten. When you're eventually asked why the application
is slow, producing work faster isn't possible, or new features are difficult
to implement, your "technical" answers about "the code", "the design", and/or
the "architecture" are derided as "lazy work" and "not valuable". We
just don't understand "the business";

- Since you're a factory laborer now, and there is no expectation that you
must "think" to do this job, the notion that you require privacy is laughable.
"The business" does not give the shop floor guys privacy, why should they give
it to you? Oh, and how long do you suppose it will be before you must
ask permission to use the bathroom? Just like factory workers;

- Since you obviously don't need to "think", after all you just have to crank
out that next ticket/card/story, then being interrupted isn't an issue. As
the foreman of a factory floor, I can reallocate my "resources" however I see
fit. After all, they're all assembling the same "widget", right?

- If you're lucky enough to not be in the physical fish bowl of the modern
software engineering shop floor, then you're expected to be tethered to some
god awful chat client. Again, what you're doing isn't complicated, right?
You don't have to plan. You don't need to design. You don't need to think.
That's what all the tools, and frameworks, and geegaws they spend big money
on are for! So if you get pinged constantly by 20 different people for 8 hours --
and your work isn't getting done -- there is something wrong with you;

- If you are unlucky enough to be in the fish bowl itself, then being interrupted
now includes both the physical and virtual;

- Meetings are what "the business" does and what we do isn't important, obviously.
So whatever "top of the stack" issue is critical to them at any given
moment in time overrides any worthless thing you might be doing.

The simple truth is that software engineering is a low prestige career in the majority
of companies. There are a handful of real software vendors that still, on some level,
grasp what it is we do. However, the vast majority gave up decades ago and just
decided to treat us like factory workers. Welcome to the software industry in the 21st century.
Step 2 ignore those and copy what your top 5 are doing.
I think it's for anyone who writes intermediate shell scripts. I don't "speak" Clojure but I'll be giving it a try sometime.
Hillary Corrupt - you can search her emails and Podesta's online, which show that her foundation (from which her family drew salary and benefit) was a pay-to-play scheme demonstrated at the least by her explicitly considering donor status in her meeting calendar while Sec. (not to mention donations to her foundation falling off 95%+ the minute her influence tanked), and that the media were funneling debate questions to her ahead of the debates. That's what we know for certain during the last primary because we can read it directly in the record. Separately, when she knew her records were about to be subpoenaed she destroyed data (the 30k emails) claiming they were personal - she didn't make a claim that they were privileged or irrelevant to the matter, much less let a judge determine this - she preemptively destroyed the information. This is called spoliation of evidence and is a crime that you and I, were we stewards of a company's data, would be put on the rack for. Check your attempts at regaining cognitive consonance and consider how this speaks to her character for the average person participating in a primary against her. And BTW, at this point it's pretty disingenuous to be talking about Hillary as somebody who doesn't thrive on peddling conspiracy theories.
That's a very narrow view of the world, friend.

It's dangerous to presume that you have such a deep and wide perspective that you can instantly diagnose something so thoroughly.
As a registered developer, there's a clear path to reach out to Apple and make my case, but that doesn't guarantee I can use the MAS. A lot of devs don't see a need for it though, because the Mac userbase, in general, knows how to get apps on the www.

As long as I can distribute outside, I'm okay with it. But I, and even the biggest Apple fans in the press, have acknowledged the walls closing in.

Author of babashka here. This tool is intended for people who find Clojure easier to work with than Bash because of familiarity or whatever other reason. If you're not one of them, that's fine, just use Bash.
Didn't they also discontinued some products before?
Yes. Daniel Kahneman's 'Thinking fast and slow' comes to mind. I haven't read the book but listened to a few podcasts about it. I think it comes down to what mode of thinking is being employed. Some use more than the other, some have a balanced use.

Hey, those have mostly Intel disassemblers. Mine did any machine code you cared to write a dissector for.

Are they iterative? Can you add human clues/cues so they do a better job the next time?
Nice, a down-vote without addressing the content and the reference to support said content. But hey, what do actual economists know about markets and monopolies.
Yes, it's very likely I am wrong about that statement.

I assumed that because before ACA, childbirth was not covered by insurance and insurance pricing based on gender was allowed, and post ACA, childbirth was mandatory and insurance pricing based on gender disallowed, that it must mean that, in general, healthcare costs more for women than it did for men.

But perhaps that's only true for young men and women, if true at all?
Not the OP but what system are you coming from? If JS, then TS is a great improvement. If anything else...probably not going to be a fun time.
It's outright misleading. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which was a co-recipient of the 2007 Peace Prize, has specifically stated that the the prize "was awarded to the IPCC as an organization, and not to any individual associated with the IPCC", and that "it is incorrect to refer to any IPCC official, or scientist who worked on IPCC reports, as a Nobel laureate or Nobel Prize winner". For a member of the IPCC to describe themselves as a "Nobel co-laureate" or "a Nobel Prize-winning scientist" borders on fraudulent misrepresentation.

TLA+: you mean the transitions of one variable are formally proven. Whilst a plus, this is not that different from how compilers were written since the 1980s.

Never saw any crash happen there.

You should think of these systems like you think of garbage collection. They lower (sometimes eliminate) one particular kind of problem, and that's it. It does not prove the code works, doesn't OOM, doesn't segfault, doesn't dos itself, doesn't enter infinite loop, etc.
I think you did find something imminently attractive about US life: said great job. Do not underplay the fact that many of your peers (a) wouldn't even look for "a great job in the US", and (b) wouldn't move for it if one landed at their feet. There are plenty of things I may dislike about US, yet I am also here by choice rather than necessity.

Did Grothendieck himself not explicitly object to any re-publishing or translation of his manuscripts?

https://tqft.net/misc/Grothendieck's%20Declaration.pdf

```
Declaration of intent of non-publication

I do not intend to publish or republish any work or text of which I am the author, in any form whatsoever, printed or electronic, whether in full or in excerpts, texts of personal nature, of scientific character, or otherwise, or letters addressed to anybody, and any translation of texts of which I am the author. Any edition or dissemination of such texts which have been made in the past without my consent, or which will be made in the future and as long as I live, is against my will expressly specified here and is unlawful in my eyes. As I learn of these, I will ask the person responsible for such pirated editions, or of any other publication containing without permission texts from my hand (beyond possible citations of a few lines each), to remove from commerce these books; and librarians holding such books to remove these books from those libraries.

If my intentions, clearly expressed here, should go unheeded, then the shame of it falls on those responsible for the illegal editions, and those responsible for the libraries concerned (as soon as they have been informed of my intention).

I'm of the personal belief that most likely, non-ionizing radiation has no affect on living tissue, but I don't see anything wrong with more open and peer-reviewed research into the subject.

It would be nice to know what dangers the most extreme amounts of non-ionizing radiation causes living tissue and biological systems to at least get a modern perspective on the range that things are finally being affected (if at all).

Then we'll be able to more easily say "no effects were found until X amount of energy, and this phone puts out 0.000004% of that" to calm the public down. Until there is a documented reference point that is actually dangerous, people are hesitant to believe any figures showing how safe something is.

That is the point. Swift has a primary usage unlike other languages. That is okay.
I'm starting to feel Swift is being overly influenced by PL nerds. I hope they keep learners in mind - plenty of kids might be learning Swift as their first language.
The standalone license hasn't been on the homepage as an option ever since the subscriptions started (and it still isn't there). If you go to the support home from the homepage and search for "standalone license" (or "standalone"), there are no results. So unless you happen to know that this option is available and spend time finding out how to get it, it's impossible to know. It is a dark pattern in the name of "not confusing users".
> Does it have a refillable reservoir?

No, plastic cartridges, but you can get a refillable cartridge.

I was worried it would be crap, because who makes a good fountain pen for $5, right? But no, it's sturdy and serviceable. You wouldn't write wedding invitations with it, but for day to day handwriting it's fine. (Daiso is a Japanese "dollar store", and everything in there is about $1.50, so $5 is high-end there, eh?)

I know what you mean about Uni-Ball's quality. I had some of the old black ones from my dad (it was his favorite pen as well) and it does feel like the new silver ones aren't quite the same, eh?

I sincerely doubt that's the main or even minor reason. With a well adjusted bike seat you likely would not be able to reach the ground at all. You want your leg to be at near full extension when you are at the bottom of your pedal stroke.

To solve this problem, just get off the seat when you stop.

I'm of the opinion that dishonesty is serious because it's an irreconcilable breach of trust. There are many things I'm happy to deal with internally providing there's a frank account but once someone intentionally misleads another it makes individual management untenable.

Separately it's a HR problem because of the nature of certain types of work. I'm struggling to fit my view with neural diversity though - some devs say dishonest things without malicious intent because they lack skills to effectively communicate.
I think it's more likely that all the managers in the chain of control suddenly feel like their ass is on the line if another 737 MAX drops out of the sky, which is why they're now paying more attention to what their engineers have been telling them for years.

Which is probably a good thing, except for the part that it took hundreds of people to die first to get here.
