As someone else digging into this...

The short answer seems to be to use either SGI's N64 SDK and a modern toolchain (https://github.com/trhodeos/modern-n64sdk) or libdragon (https://dragonminded.com/n64dev/libdragon/). The latter comes at the cost of not having built-in support for 3D (but it seems like there's enough there to take a DIY approach) and also being incompatible with most emulators (which "cheat" a bit by intercepting calls to the original libultra instead of directly emulating all the hardware). One could also run SGI's original compilers/toolchain, whether on a Linux system (using qemu-irix, which is what the folks over at https://github.com/n64decomp have been doing) or on a Windows 98 VM.

The N64Homebrew subreddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/N64Homebrew/) is also a pretty useful resource.

I used to work for Google and have friends at Amazon.

Google definitely seems to have the better working conditions. The impact on the world you have is probably similar. So relatively speaking, I'd expect people at Amazon to be into it for the money more.

I would like to recommend the recent book “Fundamentals of Software Architecture” https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/fundamentals-of-softwar...

It covers important foundations, walks through different architecture patterns. The last part of the book is about soft skills: communications, decision making, etc. In my experience, it is critical for such position. The book is different from piles of enterprise architecture books that talks a lot about UMLs, formal processes, ceremonies, and roles - things I found either irrelevant for my jobs or I can learn them better elsewhere.
I am convinced that monads induce a very specific kind of brain damage that makes a person incapable of ever explaining monads.

I'm sure my opinion won't be popular here, but I think that makes sense that they want your class to be more academic. You're teaching at a university, not a vocational school. Academia shouldn't be about being published in the NYT or Wallstreet Journal. It shouldn't be about getting raises or getting more money. It should be about discovering and sharing knowledge and it sounds like you have leaders that want and understand that.
No real advantage especially with a mostly idle system.

But it's a good idea to keep up with the versions anyway. The upgrade processes isn't really complicated and if you can afford a downtime not really challenging.

In my experience it's typically easier to migrate from version x to x+1, rather than waiting a long time and then migrate from x to x+5 (or similar big jumps).

But regardless of the strategy for major version upgrades (10 -> 11 -> 12) you should at least keep up with the minor updates (10.1 -> 10.12)

Hammerdin isn't that good in singleplayer. Main strength of Hammerdin is that it skips most monster immunities and paired with Enigma runeword (gives teleport spell to non-sorceress classes) you can quickly skip to the boss and kill him with few hammers (very bottable too). But Enigma runeword is almost impossible to get in singleplayer, and while Hammerdin is great for killing bosses and all, it's not good for general gameplay because it struggles in tight corridors.

It was somewhat similar in eastern Ukraine when I lived there from 2007-2009, but perhaps not so intense. Russian is not my first language, so at first I would always play it safe and speak formally - to young children, to dogs, to people my age. People thought it was pretty funny.

The thing is that is how things are done legally, but Musk is putting the cart before the horse by breaking the order.

I worked in an open office for 7 or 8 years, and now have been working from my spare room for 2 years. I miss exactly what you are talking about: collaboration is much harder, there is a dramatic lack of spontaneous conversations, and I can no longer overhear or be overheard and get drawn into a conversation organically that leads to a far, far better outcome than would have happened otherwise.

Some things that make the open office I experienced good: nearly the entire floor was developers with some managers, operations teams sat between developer teams, the ability to turn off overhead lighting and just let natural light in through large windows with two levels of shades on them, and there were conference rooms near by for louder conversations and white boarding. There were support folks who would need to take calls, but that was in a separate area. I never heard them. We also would have no problem saying, "hey, too loud" if a conversation good too loud or if something serious was going on. Another benefit was that when it was lunch time, just about everyone got lunch at the same time and ate together; 50-80 people in the kitchen talking shop or silly things, building rapport, hearing issues others are facing and offering help and solutions.

Sometimes, like at the end of the week, it might get too noisy with too many conversations. Then it was time for headphones for some. But we are talking like an hour or two a week.

To latch on to this comment, I found http://boringtechnology.club/ to be a really good resource; mostly the slides in the middle somewhere that explain that adding more technologies = cost. It's important to say no, to put a hold on people's enthusiasm for new tech in favor of sticking to a tech stack, and that adding more tech, or shifting tech, is very expensive. Rebuilding an application will likely cost more than the original application cost in the first place. Etc.

But I admit, it's a hard balance to find; you want to choose boring technology for your business, but for hiring you want to choose exciting, new technology because people generally don't want to work with boring tech when they're looking for a new job.

On that note, keep in mind that you will likely also be a project manager and responsible for hiring and / or indicating that your company needs to hire people. You have been empowered, it's up to you to push to your management to make investments in e.g. hiring, training, etc.

It depends. The one Walmart i knew of was central and easily reachable by public transport, the one my mother went to not so much but she did so nonetheless, because WALMART! WATERCOOLER! :) Anyways, it depends on the location, there are parts of large towns which are underserved, or in structural decline with almost no options, and not everyone lives in the big cities. So when you live out of town, away from the masses it can happen that you have to drive about an hour by car to the next larger "big box cluster" somewhere, serving that larger sparsely populated area, or into some town.

Just because someone writes a long analysis of camera work, color correction and sound recording in Shawshank Redemption, doesn't mean that they don't believe that there are emotional and philosophical aspects to the movie also. Just that the object of that work was a particular kind of analysis.
And potentially misfocused. Read The Beginning of Infinity by David Deutsch for a counter point.
> He accidentally neutered

he did not "accidentally neuter WannaCry". He stopped WannaCry by registering the kill-switch domain. Nothing accidental about that.

> He is not a master hacker

he is a kid. what makes his experience interesting, and his story worth listening to is that he had first-hand experience with the legal system as a hacker that went too far (because he is/was a kid). that is worth more than the arm-chair analysis of law (by wannabe skript kiddies and theoretical security experts).

I did a bit of research a couple of months ago when I wanted to set up Sidecar for illustration (but couldn't because my Macbook is slightly too old); it seems that, whether with Sidecar or other paid Apps, the iPad as a drawing tablet may not be ideal if you need fine control.

Just thought I'd note that in case this setup is very important to you before you buy your Mac Mini. I don't do any sort of graphics design and video editing, but people seem to be generally pretty happy with it for those purposes.

Also, many of the free drawing Apps in the App Store are actually very full-featured and feel fantastic to draw with (please support them if you like them), which is what I settled on in the end. The only thing that I miss about my Wacom Intuos is the textured surface.

Edit: removed repeated "a couple of months ago" and "in case", moved things around a little.

Honestly, I think working with computers (possibly some programming) should be more frequently integrated into math courses. A computer is a natural to really interact with the material, like labs in the natural sciences. We're lucky to live in a time where this is possible, but sadly math education is taking it's sweet time taking advantage of this possibility.
Yes- I didn't make the point well, but that's the point.

The game of telephone goes like-

* there's what I would guess to be reality
* the things the article says, that distort from (what I would guess to be) reality
* the things the headline says that distort from what the article says
* the things most HN commenters who only read the headline say that distort yet further from the article and from reality

By reading some of the top HN comments, and then the article, I get to play this game backwards. This was a particularly good example.

I don't doubt that Lidl is building some platform for retailers and its supply chain to use. That's just good business.

And no doubt data protection plays some role in the strategy, though data protection is a right generally afforded individuals, and Lidl's focus will be commercial.

But these two paragraphs are particularly out of proportion:

Schwarz Group, which owns both Lidl and Kaufland, is launching its own rival to Amazon Web Services (AWS) following the recent acquisition of software specialist Camao IDC

and

The acquisition, which completed on May 1, brings 70 cloud specialists into the wider group representing key “resources in an important area of digitalisation”.

AWS probably hired 70 people in a couple of hours yesterday, dwarfed by Amazon as a whole, which probably hired 5,000.

So you’re saying someone can make the comment stating it’s a currency but it can’t be refuted? Where then should this statement be discussed if not here? Should we start another thread to discuss the this specific comment and it’s reply? Further, the entire downvote system harms the conversation more as people leave or sit out conversations due to their voice being stifled by some random(s) on the internet. Lastly why is medium a bad choice? Legitimate articles have to be posted somewhere and most people don’t want to go through the trouble of setting up their own domain. If there were a custom domain in front of that medium link would you have cared?

In my experience, the gap between the original and any sort of reproduction grows as the craftsmanship goes up.

For most artists who are known as great masters (such as Rembrandt), it really does only take seeing a few in person to be like, “yep, s/he is clearly among the best.”
The "monad" problem is worse; many of the "tutorials" were actively wrong about some critical element, often more than one. I don't think I've seen someone claim to have linear algebra "click" but be fundamentally wrong about it somehow.

One advantage of linear algebra is that it is, well, linear. Linear is nice. It means you can decompose things into their independent elements, and put them all together again, without loss. The monad interface, as simple as it is, is not linear; specific implementations of it can have levels of complexity more like a Turing machine.
Ensmallening Go binaries by prohibiting comparisons
Some examples:

- Because 5 out of 6 outages the last month were related to simple regressions, we have decided to improve automated test coverage. Every service must have at least 90% unit test coverage and at least 1 integration test for every happy path before the end of the year.

- We will turn off supporting system XYZ at date ABC because of reason DEF (say, it violates GDPR and we don't want that liability). The recommended replacement is system GHI. All teams that use system XYZ must migrate off it before ABC - 1 month and provide a clear plan before ABC - 4 months.

- Market research indicates that potential customers recognize that we have a lot of features, but they perceive us to be slower and this is causing them to prefer competitor X. We want to win this customer group and therefore: 1. Every new feature from any team must be benchmarked to ensure it does not impact speed-related metrics A and B (time to first paint, for example) 2. Teams X, Y and Z should spend about 50% of time this quarter identifying and fixing performance issues.

- Example from the navy: We know based on intelligence reports that the enemy has no submarines and has recently acquired a big batch of air-to-surface missiles. Therefore, when choosing priorities for repair, anti-air system have priority over anti-submarine systems.

Important for autonomous decision making is not just communicating the priorities, but also WHY those priorities were set. In the navy example above for example, knowing why anti-air is more important can further guide personnel into choosing properly, since there might be systems officially classified "anti-air" that are not useful against air-to-surface missiles but only against helicopter or whatnot. The military calls this extra communication "commanders intent". Of course, letting people make decisions autonomously requires trust on both sides. It is worthwhile to invest in this.
Maybe try something/anything by Douglas Hofstadter. 'Godel, Escher, Bach' gets most of the attention, but I also found 'The Mind's I: Fantasies And Reflections On Self & Soul' (with Daniel Dennett), and 'Metamagical Themas' fascinating.
• "Laws of Form" by George Spencer-Brown, a little book that describes how to bootstrap the Universe from nothing. Louis Kauffman [1] has a lot of papers/writeups on it, from knot theory to quantum physics. If you ever wanted to make a pancake truly from scratch, this is a place to start.

• "The Unconscious as Infinite Sets" by Ignacio Matte Blanco. Reformulates Freud in logico-mathematical terms and establishes a formal system (bi-logic) to describe unconsciousness phenomena: in case you ever wanted to apply category theory to study yourself.

• "The Protracted Game" by Scott Boorman. Interprets Maoist's revolutionary strategies during 1927 - 1949 period as a game of Go. Interesting both from historical, military, and game-theoretical perspective; raised an appreciation of Eastern wisdom and 'board games as a tool of thought' [2] for me.

• "The Unwritten Laws of Engineering" by W. J. King. Written in 1944, but the advice is still relevant, more so to the software engineering field. Should be at least skimmed at any part of your career.

• "The Myth of Sisyphus" by Alber Camus. Unequivocally answers the most important question there is — does life have meaning, and if not, should you kill yourself over it? I read it in my teens while wrestling with existential dread, and lived a somewhat happy and interesting life ever after.

[1]: http://homepages.math.uic.edu/~kauffman/Form.html

[2]: There's also "Laws of the Game" by Eigen & Winkler that describes natural phenomena as glass-bead games with various rules.
>Nothing accidental about that.

He didn’t know it was the kill-switch domain, seems pretty accidental to me.
I fear this is great advice. I too avoid writing documents. Or even reading them. I want to have my hands in the code, but it's increasingly clear to me that I need to write more stuff down.
Unfortunately I couldn't disagree more. You do not really need JQuery any more, as JS has matured. I just see it as wasted loading time.
Maybe I'm biased, but I really don't think so. Monads are quite a bit more abstract than the concepts in linear algebra. Linear algebra is both geometric and algorithmic and therefore very intuitive. Most of the difficulty people have learning linear algebra can be attributed to poor teaching methods.

Look up any of scores of articles that come up when you search for 'How to shop at Aldi?' (like eg https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/aldi-101-how-to-shop-at-aldi/) to see how German shopping culture works.

Oh, and Germans don't like greeters nor people to bag their groceries for them. When they see them, they suspect they could have saved 10 cents going to shop that doesn't have them instead.

(And baggers also violate the German sense of social equality, I guess?)
He didn't know it was the kill-switch domain. He expected it would enable him to kill the malware, though, and was trying to figure out how to send the kill command before it turned out that simply sitting a server behind the domain was enough to kill it.
There are some major practical problems with blockchain based domain management. Mainly because of all kind of local country specific regulations. Like e.g. with regard to trademarks. You know this kind of thinks people like to not bother with when making a technical solution to a not purly technical problem.

While I believe that a good decentralized technical solution is possible and can be a massive improvement I am extremely sceptical about any solution involving any form of coins.
The first link is essentially a description of epigenetics - which I'm not arguing against. It's "part of the mess".

The second link is funny, but not an accurate comparison because when decompiled/deobfuscated, the google.com page resolves to well structured code. The human genome does not - there are interdependencies that have no logical purpose - pure happenstance.

...but that's not really my point anyway. My point is simply that it would be easier to build a better system from scratch. It might not be able to self-replicate from a single unit in the wild, but that no longer needs to be a requirement for us as a species.
