Often, but not always. You work there. And you are surrounded by others evaluating the same, or a similar, investment. That creates the possibility of an edge.

That possibility doesn’t exist for non-insiders. Without those advantages you’re relying on “knowing the right guy”. Nothing more.

In a certain sense, I created the very first Flash animation.

I was working at Macromedia and happened to be in the office earlier than usual that morning. Our SVP came to my boss and said basically “We bought Futurewave, we’re announcing it today, and we’re renaming FutureSplash to Shockwave Flash. I need somebody to throw a quick animation together for the press gathering, and none of the creative services people are in the building yet.”

So I downloaded the tool and made this weird little animation with the Shockwave logo falling onto the FutureSplash name and crushing the “utureSp” letters.

After that, we shared a floor with the Flash team. Good people. Jonathan Gay is very smart.
For performance you subscribe on a specific syntax kind in the syntax tree (like if, condition, operator, variable definition, etc.), the compiler calls your analyzer, and then you get a context object where you get full access to the syntax tree. After that you are only limited by your imagination.

I understand where you are coming from but I imagine few open source projects were created with the idea that they'd eventually make the big bucks on support contracts.

I think the important point is that if money should be on the table. After that it's a business negotiation as to how much you are willing to pay.

An interesting point is how you can implement a process to make this whole thing not consume non trivial amounts of time. By way of example:

Bob is a developer. He finds bug in his code comes from an underlying open source library. This gives Bob 3 options.

- Bob can either dig into the library and see if he can fix it and maintain a fork.

- Bob can fix it and try to get corporate approval for submitting an upstream patch.

- Bob can try to seek approval and budget to pay the maintainer of the project to take a look at the problem.

If companies I have worked for are anything to go by 3 sounds like a herculean task. 2 sounds possible but involves effort. 1 is a minor annoyance (with high probability of major issues down the line).

As someone who grew up in India, contributing to OSS has always been the best way for junior developers to get noticed by recruiters.

Due to the sheer number of applicants, recruiters are only interested in the ones that are truly passionate about coding - exemplified by OSS involvement or side projects.

I'm not saying that it is right, but it does give the much needed exposure to junior talents in order to foster their growth.

The actual problem seems to be the UA string requirement (from the OP, at least).

If he removes the UA spoofing, all Google sites break because Google use this to determine if they run their services (which is incredibly weird to me).

If he doesn't, then his browser is banned. Somewhat of a double bind.

The most charitable explanation here is that Google is a megacorp now, and the right hand and left hand are on different continents and aren't aware of each others existence.

I've noticed that it's not math people who are promoting it but CS people or other engineers. E.g. those who took mostly cookbook classes (no offense intended) rather than theory classes. This tells me there is a large latent desire for deep understanding.

When I first encountered the term "geometric algebra" and read some of the articles, I couldn't understand what was new about the content. In college, we learned about tensor products, wedge products, clifford algebras, and duals, and geometric algebra struck me as a subset of this core knowledge applied to three dimensions, where you can do things like take a wedge product of two vectors to get a 2 form and then take the dual to get back to a one form, and now you have a "geometric" (more of a linear algebra) interpretation of the cross product as a dual to an exterior product -- which is how we were taught what a cross product is.

But I think a lot of people who don't study this stuff were never taught these relationships, so bundling them up in a marketing name and letting them understand why these standard linear algebra relations behave as they do can really help the working engineer, which seems to be a condemnation of the rote learning approach where you are asked to memorize a bunch of stuff but are never told that what an inner or exterior product really is. Then things like calling two vectors "orthognal" if they have an inner product of zero seems mysterious.

By the way, this isn't just linear algebra. There are many deep connections behind well known algorithms in number theory, topology, calculus, algebraic geometry, (co)homology theories, that are ripe for a snazzy name and a presentation of some of the deeper ideas, so that people can start seeing connections between stuff like complex integrals and euler characteristics and winding numbers, holonomy groups and short exact sequences, etc.

So in this sense, I applaud the geometric algebra evangelists, even though this is all standard stuff that a math undergrad should learn, and the name "geometric algebra" is a completely made up term for what are well known mathematical structures.
I have no idea how the details compare, but Vimium does provide an omnibar for certain things (ex shift-T for tabs and shift-O for library).
Lots of people do this as a hobby - getting paid for a hobby is a very good way to make it not fun anymore. If its consistent $$$ that might be worth it. For a one shot thing, maybe not as much.

I think it also can be difficult to mix volunteer stuff with money. Posting in a bug tracker that multiple people work from which anyone can take on a bug from, that you will do it for $x, can make it feel like you're using a community resource to spam your business. There's probably other places where that type of advertisement is ok, but it ads an extra element of difficulty in doing these sorts of things.
Emotional Intelligence Is Overrated
Hey op - Wanted to chime in here some of the things you said aren’t accurate anymore.

GitLab CI has the ability to do SSH on the Runners. You deploy a runner and configure it to use SSH. Then it won’t use containers at all and instead use SSH.

The same is true for configuring the runner in a shell capacity. You can then reuse the same environments over and over just like Jenkins does.

As for Maven and NodeJS if you’re using containers, you simply build a dockerimage with those baked in, and use it for your builds. GitLab also has container storage that allows your images to work seem less and quickly with the runners.

For independent tasks without commits. You can easily configure a gitlab job to trigger only if a pipeline variable is present. Then trigger the pipeline via HTTP POST Request, via the UI or vi an event.

I talk about and demonstrate all of these topics on my blog www.lackastack.com - Shameless plug, but I hope it helps.
But there are many different ways to stick up for the truth, and some have positive side effects and some not—hammering people over the head, for example. The side effects are actually more important.

Let’s say you have a mostly read-only DB (otherwise things are different).

No, I don't think so, not exactly.

It depends on the specifics, of course. If a specific country directly attacked the US, of course I'd expect (and even demand) a military response. But these days, I wouldn't expect a non-state's terrorist attack to lead to the sort of misguided, ill-informed adventurism that ultimately led us to invade Iraq.

A giant problem is that people want to see reported what their 95% latency is. This is a complicated number that does not aggregate easily. Because as the article says, you need the whole dataset to calculate it.

By contrast we can ask what percentage of records is over 400 ms. This is a simple number. And if we simply keep track of how many requests there were and how many are slow, this is a simple thing to aggregate and a simple thing to calculate.

Well the comment and its parent both got deleted; don't think you're allowed to find the answer you're looking for here.
You work at the place so you are already invested in them, and are surrounded by others who are also already invested in them. So you and your colleagues already do the bet that the startup is going to be successful, which might skew your judgement on further investment. Sure, you know more about the company than a small investor would, but neither of two cases give you a board seat, which would give you insight into how the company is really doing, and there are no regulated shareholder communications like a public company has.
You're entirely missing the point of my initial comment, which is about the complexity of Typescript's type system since it has to be able to represent a large set of complex types since dynamic languages such as Javascript are highly polymorphic.

The way micro transactions work in those games (effectively for skins, special privileges in games, etc.), I think the toy comparison isn’t terribly far off the mark. Guns, starring in porn, working in mines, etc. is extreme in comparison.

Yeah. But the most interesting visuals to me were the placement of 'leaked images' in the virtual warehouse. It had the effect of contextualizing those photos and, for lack of a better term, exploding them.

I'm not sure these instances fall under the photogrammetry umbrella.
I really liked the expressivity of the yaml syntax when I did some prototyping with Concourse recently, and the Resource abstraction is very nice.

There are mathematical formalisms (like possibility theory http://scholarpedia.org/article/Possibility_theory - this article seems to be better than in Wikipedia) that allow making decisions based on the relative likelihood of events (those "degrees of surprise").

It can be useful when the actual probabilities of events are not known (it's often the case in real life scenarios). Then possibility theory may actually tell you what decision to make based on this limited information. My understanding is that the point is not that probability theory does not work, but that it requires a lot of knowledge about the system, which might be not available to the agent. In such situations, possibility theory provides a framework for making reasonable deductions.
> if you're going to use an open source tool in your business's codebase, you'll inevitably need support, upgrades, and bug-fixes

I started using open source software and tools almost exactly 20 years ago in my career as an embedded software engineer. In exactly one case a company I worked for needed support from the developer, and in that case they hired the developer, ESR, to enhance his project, GPSd.

Perhaps it is different in other parts of the software world. From what I hear, the web dev folks like to shake and bake large collections of 3rd party libraries and tools. In my experience however, companies I've worked for have never placed the burden on open source devs to fix issues or add capabilities. They paid employees and contractors to do it, and generally, where appropriate, fed those contributions back to the community.

I do feel companies are not supportive enough of open source software, but I do not feel there is any burden placed on developers of said software other than those that they choose to take on themselves.
