Actually, it has just some components of Laravel. I selected packages which usually most used for small or mid project. For example; If you want to create a basic project and want to use just Eloquent, Blade Engine, Req/Res and basic router for your project, You can use it simply with almost same usage and codebase. You know Laravel has so many dependencies even though your project is small. So project size usually be large. My purpose was a little challenge and to understand modern programming techs to increase my skills. Of course to use Laravel would be better anytime. Thanks your comment.

I doubt this.

I doubt it. The hospital isn’t extending an offer for credit, so the law probably doesn’t apply.

Also, from personal experience, the FCRA reports are useless.

The credit reporting agencies report completely different scores to consumers than banks, and give false information about how to increase your real score.

In particular, doing things that benefit banks (such as opening more credit cards) increases the consumer visible scores, but not the scores used in many real estate transactions.

The entire credit reporting industry should be outlawed.

If I owe you money and won’t pay, sue me. If you want to gauge my credit worthiness, look at my income, and check for court decisions against me.
There are 100 million more 12-character passwords than 8-character ones, so if you randomly choose from all 8-12 character passwords, it's pretty close to just saying "choose a 12-character password".

Let's say the alphabet is 93 characters (lower case, upper case, numbers, and the 31 special characters listed). So consider a random 8- to 12-character string in that alphabet.

1% of the strings have fewer than 12 characters. Lots of them will be legal, but let's eliminate them all to be conservative.

31/93 of the strings start with an illegal character, so that eliminates 33% of the strings.

About 10 * 1/97 * 1/97 will have three consecutive occurrences of the same character. That eliminates another 0.1%.

(83/93) to the power of 11 will have no numbers. That eliminates 28% of the remainder, or 18% of the total.

By the same logic, 1% will have no special symbol. A negligible amount have no letter.

One password in a million might contain the user's ID (supposing the IDs are 7-digit strings - either way, it will be negligible). Likewise there aren't many random passwords which will be the user's previous password or contain his name.

That eliminated 53% of random passwords, leaving 47% for a loss of very close to one bit of entropy. This analysis wasn't completely rigorous as some of the requirements overlap, but if you try it through simulation I'm sure the result will be between 0.7 and 1.7 bits lost.
Haha, nice tool, good fu.
That the police have to ask you twice to commit a crime before you do it, doesn’t sound like a very good defense either.

A lot of people are implying that maybe the police bullied the contractors into submission, or formed some emotional connection and used that to twist them via friendship.

But there isn’t any evidence of that.

I think it’s way more likely that the contractors simply saw a way to make more money. They couldn’t refuse the second time because it’s hard to turn down cash that’s sitting on the table. They probably think they do good work, so what is the harm?

Now if we think that they shouldn’t be arrested, then we should stop this from being a crime, not castigate the police for actually enforcing the law.

Personally, I think this sort of thing is worth a small fine at most, and the law should be changed.

The Next Frontier in Storytelling Universes and the Never Ending Desire for More
A Note to Supporters of ACRONYM
Disclaimer : I'm a shareholder.

Atari is now owned by French video games company Infogrames which renamed itself as Atari, and it is publicly listed. They bought back all of the liquidated american brands and since 2013 they've done a ton of work to get it out of debt (which is now done).

So, they effectively own pretty much all of the original IP and brand, it's just that the company is a rebirth with a new staff and new ambitions. Mostly, they work through partnerships, with little in-house dev, kind of like what a movie producer would work with a few movies licences.
Similarly, we own two of these and love them: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JG2DETM

Here are some notes I made when I worked for a company that did very well in SEO. This was a few years ago now, so this might be horribly out of date now.

Hygiene factors

- Never expose an error page to Google.
- Never expose an empty page.
- Make sure all content is visible on first page load (e.g. not behind pop ups).
- Show the same content to Google as to users.
- Make sure all relevant content is in the HTML (not loaded dynamically).
- Make sure page load times are good.

Keywords

- Research keywords you need to match.
- Build database of search terms you wish to match, grow and improve this database over time.
- Carefully curate pages, their URLs and metatags to match these keywords.
- Use this database to choose which pages to expose to Google and make sure that all links and pages have the correct follow/nofollow attribute.
- Steadily grow the content you expose to Google over time, keeping the quantity and quality of content on pages exposed to Google high.

Site structure and internal links

- Organise your site in a shallow tree structure. Top level pages should have many links to lower level pages.
- All levels of the tree should have keyword rich content which is useful to users.
- Not every level of the tree needs to be visible in the Google search results, it is mostly to make things easy for the crawler.

External links

- Use PR and social media to generate good backlinks for your site.
- Use social media like reddit, pinterest and others as well as facebook and twitter.
- Do not generate fake backlinks, if Google thinks you are doing this they will give you a severe penalty.

Submit your sitemap

- Submit your sitemap in Google webmaster tools and make sure it is kept up to date at least weekly.

Bounce rate

- Carefully monitor your bounce rate and time on site for users coming from Google as these are key factors in Google rankings.

Click through rate

- Use descriptive and relevant titles and metatags to improve the click through rate from the Google search results to your site.
- PR, social media, advertising and other channels can improve brand awareness that in turn improves click through rate.
- Regularly check a selection of searches that you rank on to assess the quality of your Google search listings.
FCRA doesn’t only apply to credit but also housing and employment for instance. I din’t know wether it applies to healthcare though.
It's a pet belief of mine that Guinness World Records are a 'scam'. The big sporting records, like fastest 100 m sprint, are actually tracked by the sports bodies. What say they have in the matter is its own debate (e.g. there's no record for the 150 m, because the IAAF don't sanction a 150 m race, but there was a famous unsanctioned race between winners of the 100 m and 200 m races), particularly in sports with multiple federations or codes, but at least they sometimes have international government funding from which to derive some kind of authority.

GWR have nothing but a tacky book, yet we've all been sucked into this notion that it's not an official world record unless they say it is. And what they accept as a record is subject to strict guidelines (i.e. what they're willing to put in a child's Christmas stocking) and dubious rulesets. There are even unbreakable 'first xyz' records and geographically limited 'world' records.

The fact that it is hyperbole. The developer job market here is strong, but unless you are currently grossly underpaid, you aren’t going to swing that kind of increase. Compensation ranges aren’t wide enough for that to be an “easy” thing.
I had to stop reading when there was some moral tinge that Berhringer is somehow doing something wrong by producing technology for cheap that is out of patent, namely that somehow it's wrong for Berhinger to produce the Model D when Moog produces one as well. Author claims these "compete". Maybe. Different price points and different quality of builds.

Moreover, this guy is a modifier not a manufacturer. Having his name on a product is a huge marketing scheme, probably providing him with more business than he could keep up with. I didn't know Studio Electronics until Roland. This just reads like he let something fall through, and he wants to blame berhinger somehow. It's not even as if his tech was patented, so, what's the point of writing this? IP is an abstract philosophical farce and no one really owns ideas.
While this is good to see verified, and I absolutely think it is important to rigorously double-check whether things that "make sense" are actually true, it would have been really surprising if this were not true.
1) immigrants often have language difficulties that their children do not
2) immigrants often have cultural knowledge difficulties that their children do not
3) immigrants often have moved to places (both country and place within country) for the exact reason that they believe their children will do better there

But, again, just because it was predictable doesn't mean it wasn't a good idea to have rigorously verified that it is so.
Not op, but I have this on my Kobo ereader.
So run a background check on the people you hire, if that's important to you. But it has nothing to do with technical ability.

I could see working for for Tesla, I couldn't work on Tesla's AutoPilot though.

I have deep reservations about using members of the public (and others on the road) as guinea pigs. Before the Walter Huang fatality, maybe, but after that and how Tesla acted about what was clearly a software bug in software that wasn't fit to be on public roads ("beta" label or otherwise), I could never justify working for such a company. Imagine being a software engineer on AutoPilot at the time, and then having the company you work for excuse your bugs by blaming the victim for not circumventing AutoPilot controlled steering into a wall.

Software development ethics don't come up a lot. But I feel like AutoPilot is up there with medical software, aviation, and military, in that mistakes can easily cost lives. I want to be able to sleep at night.

This article sounds alarmist. "Revenue fell 12% to $412 billion in 2019, the Semiconductor Industry Association said Monday in a statement. That’s the biggest drop since 2001, when industry sales slumped 32% as the dot-com bubble burst."

I don't see how 12% is a skyfall number. Especially when compared to 32%.

It was pay-walled so I did not read any further.
One thing I recommend doing is block every single advertiser you see on Instagram. It doesn't reduce the frequency of ads but will reduce their revenue. Every time you block one it has to show you a lower value ad.

We're a new GCP customer with a growing amount of spend as we investigate multi-cloud (coming from AWS multi-account, words can't effectively express how much of a joy GCP is to work with).

It may be because we're an attractive customer with a very large amount of AWS spend, but the folks at GCP have made our adoption pretty amazing. We've had multiple on-boarding and troubleshooting calls with the actual product managers of GCP services, in addition to onsite training/consultation with experts (all paid for by Google).

I've had to use support a couple of times and found it pretty on par with support I've gotten out of AWS.

Like any provider of services, I've found that relationships are key. Cultivating a good relationships with your reps/contacts goes a long way in their willingness to go the extra mile for you.

But, interactions with our reps have grown fewer (we're told their customer success/technical account management teams are understaffed), and it may be a sign that we're getting out of the honeymoon phase. We'll see.

I think this might have to do with the type of Asian-Americans that immigrate to the US. (esp. this generation)

[Strike out] Asians mostly use high-skilled visas / education based visas as a door to enter the nation. Almost by definition, this beings in the subset of Asians who grew up in a culture of education and hard work. [\Strike out]

I think, the cultural boon/curse of living vicariously through your child also leads to parents pushing their child towards "lucrative" / "respected" careers.

There might also be a snow-ball effect, where Asians aspire to pursue careers where Asians have traditionally succeeded. That would be professions in STEM fields, which have high median wages.

[Strike out]The real title should be -> "Children of Asian immigrants who were top percentiles in their own countries, perform at a similarly high level"[\Strike out]

edit: didn't see the lower quartile number. Renders my argument invalid.
The one bright spot to this is that, since it's a ratchet that can only go in one direction and find more reasons to deny people as it gets more data, privatized health care will eventually be its own undoing when enough people are frozen out of coverage that they can form a voting bloc and give this system the bullet to the head it deserves.

> The main issue was that the writers weren’t SEO specialists: they knew how to write good content, but good content is NOT always the same as SEO content.

> The main difference between SEO content and generic content is that the first is written with user search intent in mind. You need to keep in mind what the Googler is looking for when they search for any given keyword. Then, you create content based on that intent.

I’m not sure how that would be functionally different than the current situation. Instead, simply regulating how contacts are allowed to be used would remove the need to build a logically complex system, and since Apple already reviews every app submission it would just be one more thing for a reviewer to check.
It is probably net positive for advanced users who have niche needs that the different editors address, but I'm saying it is bad for beginners/learners. More specifically, I'm saying emacs/cider is bad for beginners/learners, and the more traditional IDE options aren't so solid.

> including others whose backgrounds you may not understand at all, does.

There is a certain soft bigotry in the assumption that differences in background account for as much as people think they do. The "perspective that I gained in the world" is that ppl are remarkably similar with some mostly surface differences.

The point is, there has to be room to ask "Is your taking offence to this legitimate under any reasonable standard?"
I have a few, which have happened one at a time over the years. Mostly between tired of cheap junk breaking, tired of plastic, or tired of staring into a screen, so I'll share a few.

I wear a watch. Sometimes solar, but usually automatic. It looks nice, and lets me avoid getting trapped into staring at my phone in public.

When I want to send a long communication, I use a fountain pen and write it on paper and mail it. Not for everything of course, but it elicits a different reaction from folks vs an email or text.

I shave with a Feather ASD2. I never liked shaving before, so I turned it from a chore to a pleasure, with the soaps, brushes, hot towels, smells, etc. Now I genuinely look forward to it! I also appreciate the lack of plastic waste vs disposables.

If my wife or I make coffee, we use an old school Elma coffee grinder, a kettle, and a metal aeropress. It's so much nicer than drip.

I've done this for years, and it's great! The way I see it is that a phone is a tool that you should use to your benefit. The tool should therefore not call attention upon itself. A weird analogous example would be having a hammer that constantly told you to hammer some nails for no good reason.
I’m confused, so what exactly do the hospitals want to gain from this “medical” credit score?

If the hospitals simply want to gain insight on your ability to pay your medical bills, wouldn’t your “normal” credit score be able to provide that insight.

What’s different between your “medical” credit score and your normal credit score?

Edit:
Additionally, there are laws in place in the US that state in emergent situations, no hospital (public or private) can deny care - regardless if you can pay or not. So the article title might be a bit sensationalized.

I think implicit in this myopia is they don't eat their own dogfood. If they have their best people managing their core products running their own infrastructure which is clearly much more reliable than GCP, then GCP won't get better. On top of which their best people will move toward their own internal services.

Contrast this with the other cloud providers who seem to be using their own clouds for their primary services creating a feedback loop which ensures they don't have the big outages that GCP has had over the past year.
