1. Any interest in a Fall co-op/intern?

Perhaps! File an application with your resumé. If we think there are good fits we'll work something out.

2. How can I learn more about your batteries as a potential customer for a college SAE electric car racing team?

Good question, I have to follow up that internally. The current focus for our Battery Systems team has been geared more towards larger automotive customers and ESS, not sure where we are currently in terms of smaller applications. Will get back to you.
It is. Most people’s air con will switch on at similar times. People mostly shower first time in the morning, or in the evening, cook around the same time. Amusingly and semi-notoriously, the Uk national grid monitors for ‘tv pickups’ like halftime in the football or the cliffhanger in the latest Eastenders - they can spike hundreds to thousands of megawatts. There are special power stations to handle to peak while others spin up, otherwise the frequency drop would cause grid failures.
I recently also tested such "feature" in a car from 2016, and I was quite unimpressed. As you say it has a lot of miss-identifications such as signs, and it doesn't work at all in mist, but for me it also failed several times to even recognize cars and blinded a few.

For now it seems more like an technical interesting concept than a feature. I do not like false negatives in an technology that could cause result in car accidents.

The speed limit sign detection is more useful as the false positives and false negatives is noticeable but mostly harmless.

> Virtually every object of value in modern world is made by scientists and engineers but guess who is million times more worshiped, popular, paid, followed, protected and cared about: actors!

Not really. It just seems that way because of the a tiny, highly visible slice at the top of the field. The 2018 median pay for an actor was $20.43/hr, there were only 64,500 of them working in 2018, and there's about 1% projected 10 year growth in the field.

The median pay for a software developer in 2018 was $50.77/hr, there's almost 1.4 million of them, and there's 21% projected 10 year growth in the field.

> None of the behind the scene people matter much or even get fraction of a credit because they are often not as attractive as these puppets to put on the screen.

Directors, Producers, Screenwriters, and Composers, among others, often are as prominently, or nearly so, credited as stars, paid quite well, and quite well known; definitely moreso than non-star actors.

And star actors very often have a much bigger impact on productions than just presenting what others have written, actively shaping their characters and often other parts of the production.

It is perfectly reasonable for coworkers to be discussing their salaries. I agree that money topics in general should be less taboo than they are currently.

If I found out I made less than someone else, I’d first see if I agreed with that call and, if not, use that signal to figure out what change I should make (in performance/level of effort, in communication/publicity, or in company).
> An ok-ish middle class salary

Twice to four times the median salary in the UK (and three to six times the salary of a bus driver who is usually far more skilled), for a low-skilled job that requires neither education nor physical exertion. There is a reason why there are massive waiting lists.
>Such as the VS Codium project which provides VS Code binaries without the proprietary parts. But also, as a consequence of this, without the Marketplace of extensions.

It's worth noting you can easily switch vscodium back to using the official extension marketplace by changing the product.json file as noted here: https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#ext...

They note the legality of this is dubious. I'm no lawyer so I can't say I understand the intricacies of this, but as far as I can tell, it's merely against the TOS of the marketplace. At worst, I imagine Microsoft would just lock the marketplace down and prevent vscodium accessing it in the future, if they see it as a big enough problem.

It's a Revit problem. Autodesk is known for hating on OpenBIM, since it threateans their hegemony. I've never heard of anyone saying everything went smooth when dealing with Revit + IFC. It's still not certified for IFC 4 and 2x3 support is lacking at best.

True however, you need people who know what they are doing :)

Btw I'm glad we have options in the market. Same as with browsers, OS, etc. Mono cultures are hurting everyone.
Where to Buy Pure Green Lab CBD?
Pure Greens Lab CBD Oil

The complaints are old and refer to other products that seem to have come with improperly detailed subscriptions involving recurrent billing and shipping. The message they send, however, seems to apply: the customer service is awful.
Returning to the product at hand, CBD Pure Hemp Oil is available in 60 ml bottles, in 3 different concentrations:
For each concentration, buyers can order 1, 3, or 6-month supplies. Depending on order volume, prices range from $19.99 to $24.99 for the 100 mg option, from $34.99 to $44.99 for the 300 mg option, and from $54.99 to 69.99 for the 600 mg option.
According to the instructions on the bottle, users should administer 1 mg or half a dropper under their tongue and hold it there for 60 seconds, twice a day or as needed. The seller recommends long-term use and claims CBDPure has no side effects.

>It makes me uneasy to accept VS Code as an "open" project in any wider meaning of the word when compelling features are legally locked to only work inside the family of Visual Studio products.

Yeah, so? I'll still use it. And those "compelling features" were only added in the last year or so. VSCode became immensily popular sereval years before they landed.

Plus, if somebody likes, they can create the same functionality as open source extensions upon the open source VSC core.

Microsoft also has to create something to differentiate themselves, right? Or should it all be just free foss stuff?

I could be wrong here, but I think the new Site Isolation stuff in Chromium[0] may mean that you can sandbox an iframe to a different origin, so that the main threads of the top frame and the iframe aren't synced. So the iframe where the code is running would freeze, but the main frame would still be responsive. Again, I may have misinterpreted this because I only read about it in passing, and it was a while ago.

The "counterexample" is an interpretation of events based on wishful thinking, I was stating known facts. How is governments saving banks proof of their higher purpose or morals? Saving them saved a few rich clients and shareholders while distorting the market by rewarding badly managed banks.

I'm quoting from a memory of an article I read about 6 months ago, sorry.

.NET does it relativity easy given C++/CLI, and on the native side there is COM, UWP, C++/CX and C++/WinRT.

So any language on Windows able to use COM/UWP, gets those Python libraries, sorry, C++ libraries.

The effort to use Julia FFI to interoperate with them is hardly any different than using Python FFI, with the big difference that in what concerns Julia it would be possible to re-implement them in pure Julia, while the Python community keeps wondering about to write more FFI code to native libraries or finally start adopting PyPy.
First of all Chinese internet and media regulations apply to all companies foreign or domestic. This is completely different from the situation with TikTok. Microsoft, Yahoo, Apple and many others have operated within local regulations in China for many years.

Second of all, TikTok is basically a Vine clone, but became more successful because of rapid innovations developed in the large and very competitive Chinese market. If the US did all of what grandparent suggested, there would not have been a TikTok to worry about in the first place because it would have been developed here.

That's awfully high: You should be seen well before that, child or adult. [1] I have only had such a fever once in my adult life - and I had serious cognitive defects. I couldn't drive. I fell asleep while while waiting for the doctor, who proceeded to have me take 800mg of children's liquid ibuprofen and kept me there to make sure my fever started to go down, otherwise they were going to send me to the ER. My fever was 103.1 (39.5C). I'd think at 42C, I'd be in serious, serious trouble.

All that said, a low-grade fever isn't all that harmful. I still tend to take something. I used to try to tough it out before the experience above, but also found that without the body aches and headache that comes with the fever, I slept better while sick, even though I still would sleep for hours. I also tended to feel better a little sooner. Of course, this isn't data, and I've read the stuff about the beneficial fever before, but until general medical advice tells me to do differently, I'll stick to comforts.

Or, you know, to actually make money from an editor they created, offer the core and tons of functionality for free and as FOSS, and spend millions employing people to work on, but adding some non-free value-added extensions...

In setting defaults, you’re always making a choice.

“By default, all drivers will not be marked as organ donors.” vs “By default, all drivers will be marked as organ donors.”

“By default, all employees at companies with 401(k)s will save X% of their eligible salary in 401(k)s.”

You’re making a choice for them in any event.
Quite so. I was just trying to make some small suggestions on how to handle the consequences of making that object immutable.

Here are some links along the same lines:

* _Aggregate Roots_ in DDD limit pointers, https://martinfowler.com/bliki/DDD_Aggregate.html
* Guidance on where to mutate, _Functional core, imperative shell_, https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/screencasts/catalog/funct...

> using immutable object doesn't make all your problems go away, it makes them different

Yes, and here is a concrete example of the kind of 'different' problems you get: nested immutable structures, say `a.b.c.d`, become harder to update than simply `a.b.c.d = newValue`. The functional solution for this is 'lenses' (and other 'optics'). My favourite Kotlin framework that I use in my day job provides lenses for HTTP - URL query parameters, request and response bodies and so on - which work very well.
In projects I've been involved with, storing JSON in the database has often turned out to be a mistake.

Django models create a well-defined self-documenting structure for your schema, are easy to evolve using migrations, and there's a wealth of tooling built on top. IMHO, these far outweigh the perceived convenience of simply storing some stuff in a JSON field.

If you find yourself implementing your own validation and schema code for JSON fields, I'd say it's a sign that you should probably stop and migrate the data to Django models instead.

There are some cases when storing JSON is fine, of course, but in my experience they are few and far between.
A unionized workforce isn't likely to have this problem, since they would all be working under the same union contract being paid the same.

> The point is that even a Western middle class level of comfort is beyond the reach of most of the population

Depends on the country, and I'm not sure it's the same effect, ie not being able to pass culturally due to upbringing mismatch. Probably true for those growing up in very poor, crime ridden places where they can't learn the basic hygiene, punctuality etc needed for work.

As for social mobility, anecdotally, from who went where in my circles, tech and engineering are definitely higher in this than law and economics. Whatever is more concrete and harder to muddle the waters, is better suited for outsiders as a ladder. But the really big money is always in softer things but they a better gate-kept. I don't really think anyone tries to gatekeep the hard fields or trades too much. It's also why "the Polish plumber" is a meme. Easter European immigrants can take up such jobs and often reach a middle class income. I know many simple hardworking people who couldn't progress much due to cultural fit, but do make decent money in England/Germany etc. with physical work (like transporting stuff, setting up stages, cutting trees). Their kids do have a chance to enter the cultural middle class then.

> Continuously failing external requests should not make each one of your responses slow.

It is not really a matter of the responses becoming slow, the problem is that if you are running sync with i.e 6 application server processes and you have just 6 hits on an endpoint in your app that is hung up on an external API call your application stops processing requests altogether.
Healthie, a fast-growing healthcare startup that builds business-critical software for wellness professionals, is hiring a full-stack developer. You'll work on our team of engineers building an awesome product at scale.

Our stack includes Rails, React, Typescript, and GraphQL. Some of the other technologies we use are Postgres, Redis, Sidekiq, RSpec, Capybara, and Gatsby.

Our test suite runs on a continuous integration service, and we deploy to a PAAS.

We have a friendly, educational code review process, where code is reviewed by both managers and peers. We use a kanban-ish workflow, where work begins life in a spec review process and then continues down the roadmap through implementation, review, QA, and deployment. The process allows for feedback and input from engineers every step of the way.

Our product team is always responsive to ideas and feedback from the engineering team. The two teams collaborate to produce a steady stream of well specified, reasonably scoped product changes that are a joy to implement and never result in redundant effort.

Our team is friendly, smart, and diverse. Outside of our 10am EST “standup,” working hours are flexible - work when you’re enjoying it and being productive, and have a life outside of work.

You:
6+ years of experience working on web applications

Bonus:
Familiarity with tech in our stack
Previous startup experience
Experience in healthcare startups (or actual healthcare)

If everything above sounds good, we'd be excited to meet you!

Developers should be aware that VSCode is not as open source as it claims it is.

Honest question...

Is SQLite also deceiving people about its "open source credentials" because the Encryption Extension is proprietary and costs $2000?[1]

... because as far as I can tell, most conversations do refer to SQLite as "open source" without always bringing up the encryption extension as a disclaimer in every online discussion. SQLite's creator, Richard Hipp, has a company selling a commercial license for the encryption add-on but it doesn't seem to tarnish the "open source" perception of SQLite.

There was a push when I was in college to extend it to programming assignments, which at the time it was monumentally poorly suited to. It turns out there's only so many unique ways first years can write hello world in Java, or the Car make/model getters/setters. It also was prone to pull lines out of context like "Why yes, someone has written for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++) before".

By second year using it for code was abandoned as a failed experiment, thankfully.

Even for essays, it was quite fond of flagging the entire references section by finding each reference individually somewhere else.

What are you supposed to do with an influence peddling racket? Microsoft is playing the same game as everyone else.
They definitely are used in some circumstances. For example, a sauna uses heated rocks. This allows you to control the humidity separately and not have the water evaporate. I guess it would work just as well with sealed metal tanks of water, but rocks are cheaper and more traditionally available. And they can't leak.

So I'm not doubting you, just wondering why an intermediary heat storage medium is preferred in practice. Maybe for some of the same reasons as the sauna.
