Every kid is different so YMMV. In my experience (N=2) the biggest factors were:

* Full bellies (more milk!)
* Dark rooms (blackout curtains)
* white noise
* Consistent routine (more relevant after 6-9 months)

For us the general idea was that we wanted to be able to put them down in the crib awake so they could learn to fall asleep on their own rather than always nursing/holding them until they feel asleep and then trying to put them down. I cannot stress enough that every kid (and parent) is different so your mileage may vary.

Not only would it undermine credibility of UK Leave, but elements of the Conservative party.

The is the same report which the Conservative government took almost 18 months to publish after it was finished [1] (and which the government did what they could to avoid starting). This includes the period during which a Conservative government won a general election on the platform of the very issue which prompted the report in the first place - the Brexit referendum.

And when was it finally released? The day before parliament's summer recess - to minimise accountability and discussion. By the time parliament sits again it will be just 4 months out from a no deal Brexit, meaning that it has only been available for discussion for 8 weeks out of the 4 and a half years that it has had relevance (since the referendum).

And the same report which is due to be scrutinized by a non-partisan Intelligence and Security Committee. The same committee that the prime minster has installed his preferred puppet to chair (who incidentally has no experience in intelligence or security) [2], booting a senior minister who opposed the move out of the party in the process.

The same committee which was once led by a former senior Conservative MP, now independent, who has expressed his anger over there being "no valid reason" to not publish it sooner [3].

This is more than just a bit of spin covering up some incompetence - it's democratic integrity being brushed aside.

The syntax seems strange to me. Why require .end() instead of using function parenthesis?

.capture.anyOf.range('A', 'F').range('a', 'f').range('0', '9').end().end()

Could easily look like:

capture(anyOf(range('A', 'F'), range('a', 'f'), range('0', '9')))
Does it really matter if it’s “user serviceable” or does it just need to be “serviceable.” Because I think Apple meets that bar. I don’t really care that for all practical purposes my transmission isn’t serviceable by me personally, but that I can take it to the shop for an okay price.

Getting my iPhone battery replaced was a pretty painless experience compared to my old Nexus. Hell it was actually easier than my Samsung that had a user replaceable battery because by the time it needed replaced I couldn’t find a 1st party replacement battery!

You're entitled to your opinion but frankly I think it's a wholly moronic one.

Enduring a bunch of whining to get the trip over with sooner is the superior course of action. Yes there's meals and bathroom breaks to account for but that doesn't mean there won't be 4+hr uninterrupted in the car.

Does letting 5yo you out to run around at a rest area really do much good if you're just gonna raise everyone's stress levels right back up by having a meltdown when it's time to get back in the car? In my experience pissing everyone off as you get back on the road worse for morale than enduring a bunch of "can we stop" type whining.
If you have available time, start doing the job. Write, teach, talk, stream, etc. about technology that you like. Grow your communication skills and audiences. Then when a company you feel passionate opens up a DevRel role, you'll have your 'resume' ready to go.

Maybe I'll take Apple's environmental efforts seriously when they stop waging war against independent repair and stop blocking their suppliers from selling replacement parts.

How can you claim to be environmental lt conscious when a huge part of your business is built on suckering customers into buying new, replacement devices when all they want is a repair or replacement for a relatively cheap component?

> Some of these metrics of untrustworthiness, such as affiliation with hate websites [..] make sense. Others appear to be more subjective.

It "makes sense" for giant corporations to pry into people's politics and cut them out of giant markets based on what they find. But when they apply criteria we disagree with, only then is it "more subjective".
If a person uses a video as evidence to conclude something that isn't evident in the video, it is not an issue about subjectivity. It's an issue with the person; they're being illogical, or acting in bad faith.
if youre referring to that hit piece that came out last year about long term care insurance, no. That was a bunch of crap. The guy who published it burned his reputation as the Madoff whistleblower to make some quick money.
But you sit closer to it so it needs to be sharper. The issue with 1080p at 14 inch is that 150% scaling has blurriness issues with bitmap graphics and 100% scaling is a bit too small and 200% scaling is a little bit too big for most people. Linux is also terrible at 150% scaling across the board. 1440p is the perfect trade-off at 200% between crispness and battery life and well-supported in linux, and while 4k at 300% is very crisp it is a massive power drain.

Apple and microsoft consistently ship displays between 200 and 250 dpi, the sweet spot for 200% scaling. It is frustrating that nobody else does this. I’m on the fence between replacing my 1080p thinkpad with another thinkpad or a macbook pro, and this is a major advantage for the mbp.
It's been a number of years now since a garden variety Mustang GT became faster than an M3 around a road course. Now we have things like the PP2 and the Camaro SS 1LE that are nipping at the heals of really high end performance cars. Gone are the days when pony cars couldn't turn.

GE’s breathtaking growth under Welch was fueled in large part by its transformation into a financial services superpower. By 2000, nearly half of the company’s revenue—$96 billion—came from GE Capital

GE’s exposure to finance proved to be an enormous vulnerability after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and particularly during the financial crisis of 2008. While Welch’s successor, Jeff Immelt, tried to diminish GE’s reliance on finance, his efforts came too late.

she's not "in" devrel but certainly every time she speaks she is performing that function (very well i might add)

devrel isnt really limited to people who formally hold that title. anyone in the company speaking to customers and potential users is doing devrel.
Doesn't that reasoning lead to saying that founders shouldn't get a salary from investors either (or only make minimum wage), since if they really believed in their idea they would be happy with equity and not money? After all, a salary means founders would be trading future risky returns for immediate low risk cash.
You focused on the wrong part, I could have left out "to govern". My point was there's no evidence of anyone using DMs, we're talking about public tweets. And there's no use talking about private communications because the scope expands from Twitter to the individual's actions (sneaking around using Signal or similar, etc.).
Netlify Reduces Pricing
There are some structural limitations to doing this. Car side impact performance is substantially hampered by the very large holes we need to make the driver and passengers replaceable. Nobody wants to crawl in the top like a tank, and we compromise heavily because of this.

One solution that occurs to me is to look at what 3M has for a thermally stable version of the removable adhesives they use for those wall hooks. How many watt hours of capacity do you lose making space for 1) the adhesive, and 2) lower tolerances to account for human error in centering the new battery? I suspect this could be engineered to be less problematic. Possibly with some sort of tool for aligning the battery and dropping it in (thinking suction cups and some rails to drop it straight in).
ARM and SAP are both Internet companies without question.

ARM wouldn't be relevant at all without the Internet. In practical terms its product is entirely linked to the Internet, specifically the mobile Internet.

ARM is not a website, sure, nor an app. It's as much an Internet company as AWS is. One could pretend AWS could exist in some formulation without the Internet, but that would be silly. The same is true with ARM as it exists today, the Internet made them what they are. If you remove the Internet, which neuters smartphones, ARM all but vanishes; thus, they're plainly an Internet company. You don't have to be strictly software to be an Internet company.
There are diesel trains in Europe. They tend to be more on branch lines, though, with the main trunks being electric. (Electrifying every branch is not economic.)

In the US, it could still be done (and has), but the economics are not as compelling because the price of diesel is lower.
AutoDist, a distributed deep learning training engine from Petuum was launched
AutoDist, a distributed deep learning training engine. It provides an easy to use interface to automatically distribute the training of a wide variety of deep learning models across many CPUs and GPUs at scale with very minimal code change.

AutoDist allows a developer to scale a model from a single GPU to many, without requiring changes to your model building scripts. We’ve approached this from a different perspective — graph optimization with composable representation of strategies to enable manual crafting or automated selection of the best options for your model training.

On a tangent: when he was young, Schmidt worked (alongside a young Wadler) on the Poplar functional language.

http://bitsavers.org/pdf/xerox/parc/techReports/CSL-81-11_Re...
It reads to me more like Schmidt is proposing the government set up its own "US Digital Academy" so that they don't have to compete with MIT and Stanford. (I assume the model would be something like free or low tuition in exchange for a requirement to work for the government for x years upon graduation.)
You should have a look at the paper “end-to-end arguments in system design” - http://web.mit.edu/Saltzer/www/publications/endtoend/endtoen...

More or less reliability in the datagram layers affects performance - for example, WiFi does its own retransmissions whereas ethernet does not, because WiFi uses a less reliable physical layer, and because you don’t want your packets to have to go from London to New York and back before you discover one of them was lost.

But reliability at the WiFi later cannot give your application the semantics of an ordered data stream, so it is not a substitute for TCP. You can replace TCP with a different transport protocol if you want different behaviour, eg SCTP or DTLS or QUIC, but in all cases they are providing a higher level abstraction than raw datagrams, not just (and not necessarily) more reliability.

Which I equally detest.

> The tautology problem is not a problem. Tautologies are powerful.

They are, of course, but how is the statement tautologically useful in this context?

> If you want strict laws and no "to some degree" hedges, read physics.

Sure, but physics is not the only field that does not consist of, mostly, overly general, extrapolation of empirical, but ephemeral phenomena.
Funny how the article just references only those two universities, when in fact the man himself attended Princeton and Berkeley. Glad to see which schools are viewed as the Ivory Towers of the uneducated mass.
Too much overconfidence in Reliance. This is the same firm well known for totally missing the boat on India's IT boom.

It has done a great job deploying the network. Unmatched probably anywhere in the world. But that set of skills has nothing to do with charting out a vision that will work in future.

That set of skills to rollout a network at huge scale quickly, existed in India because of cut throat competition in the Telco space over 15 years.

But the skills to handle the sociological, political and psychological fallout from Scale that Zuckerberg, Dorsey et al have to deal with 24*7 does not exist in India.

They will get the Amazon/payments/delivery/cloud stuff,the easy stuff, right cuz the talent, cash, ambition and drive exists.

But the other stuff, the stuff that actually requires vision, is waiting to blow in India. If you think polarization/inequality/fake news etc etc in US is bad, go and visit India. I was there in Jan and the whole place was burning.

This bet on 4G/cloud/platforms etc is not because of some great vision of the future. It's really about crashing crude prices resulting in a huge pivot from their bread and butter Oil/Refining Business(they own the largest refinery in the world).

It can all collapse or go nowhere as that start hitting issues no one has dealt with before.

Plus there is the small issue of huge existing players who are not exactly lining up to bend over to the Ambanis.

To sum up, the Indian Internet or whatever emerges there is in for a unpredictable wild ride over the next few years and the current rose tinted view of Reliance matches what Facebook had in its early year. Expect that to change.

This is all reminding me of the murmurs from Jeri Ellsworth and friends about the shadow government at Valve.

The lack of transparency means that the subtle people win a rigged game that the more oblivious don't even know is being played. A category in which engineers are substantially over-represented.

We put it out there so that there are more eyes on it, and people are forced to acknowledge their own pain points and learn a bit about themselves and/or teamwork.
Linux isn't a good example. Torvalds abandoned Europe a mere five years into Linux, and has lived in the US ever since. For 80% of the development of Linux, he has been in the US, almost a quarter of a century. His home is in the US, he's an American citizen. He has lived in the US as long as he lived in Europe at this point (except he chose to live in the US, he was born in the Europe and left by choice).

I misremembered that the quotes where mandatory in html. They're only mandatory in XML.

Initially, html was also valid XML. It's been quite a long time since then, so I accepted that Quotes definitely aren't mandatory anymore.

it's not like I wrote a lot...

Or are you somehow mixing up my comment about chrome adding quotes to html attributes before it renders the DOM?

And heck, I'm not even sure if that's even still the case. I just roughly remember looking at KHTML Code Back around 2008 and thinking "that's smart, you just make certain the data is how you want it to be for easier handling"

Another problem created in Europe by iverregulation is MOSS. EU is a "single market" but with thousands of rules when it comes to taxation. It is very hard for B2C digital services startups to sell on the European market, because you have to charge taxes according to the rules of any of the 27 countries. Of course, this is an easy problem to solve for the behemoths.

They've been working on those efforts for many years now, it's carbon neutrality that's new.

Unless you're suggesting that they can't attempt carbon neutrality until they've finished permanently eliminating the others first? It's not as if they haven't been trying for many, many years, since 2013[0] at least, and I think longer.

IANAL. What kind of accounts? If you're talking about accounts that contain any assets (e.g. bank, brokerage, e-commerce, ...), there shouldn't be a need to have a password for your estate to access them. Other than that, did you mean accounts that contain non-public information, or did you want to pass down the control of -say- your social media accounts to your folks?
There are a couple of potential bugs in the useEffect one.

Firstly, the two examples aren't semantically equivalent. onSuccess can change between renders, so in the "wrong" version, the version of onSuccess that'll be executed is the latest one. Whilst in the "correct" version, it'll be the one defined during the render which was in play during the initial render.

If you always want to make use of the latest onSuccess in the "correct" version, you'll probably want to look into putting it on a ref.

Another issue with the "wrong" version is that onSuccess will be called a second time if its identity changes after it's already been called once, which is quite likely if its parent re-renders and doesn't make use of useCallback.

Ultimately I think the "correct" version is indeed better, but the question of which is the correct onSuccess handler is one that always needs to be seriously considered.
I believe in effect that is what they do in execution.

The 2D plot is more for training -- a human physicist picks out visual artifacts of interest to bootstrap the training. Humans of course can see blips and weird curves better on a visualization than in a pure data series.

For instance, a human can say if this little tail off a contour bends this way, it's right; if it bends in a different way, it's wrong. Or if an contour is "prickly" or "blobby".

Whether something "looks right" or "wrong" is really hard to mathematically reduce to a parsimonious description, especially when there's variance in the samples -- after all, there could be multiple subtle descriptions of "looks right" or "looks wrong" -- but a CNN is perfect for generalizing based on labeled samples. Similar to a radiologist looking at a scan and toggling isTumor = (True, False).
