Yet another automation that is not needed by the user. As a designer I get it - it is growth hacking. For some reason I think this will backfire, music is personal experience without clear emotional boundaries. Example: Current emotional state: Happy. Reason: Good memories with my girlfriend. Song: Hurt by NIN. If a song has emotional signature you cannot predict with certainty that it will be in unison with emotional state of the listener.
Very true. But on the other hand, it ties up your investments for several days.

Moving means totally removing yourself from the market precisely at the time when big swings are happening, which many people might not want to risk. So it's actually pretty tricky, not frictionless or anything.

> As occurred in the spring, COVID-19 has become the leading cause of death in the United States (daily mortality rates for heart disease and cancer, which for decades have been the 2 leading causes of death, are approximately 1700 and 1600 deaths per day, respectively4).Dec 17, 2020 [0]

How do you argue with statistics? Its leading cause of death.

I think you need to seriously consider the possibility that the people spreading this narrative are doing so dishonestly in order to pump the stock. Short interest is now far below 100% (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-02-01/gamestop-...), yet /r/wallstreetbets is still full of hold memes rather than victory speeches.
When doing the right thing takes more work than the current situation, people are probably going to do nothing as long as it's not too uncomfortable. It's akin to canceling subscriptions.

I lazily left my 401k at my previous job "running" for 18 months before finally rolling it into my personal IRA. I'm sure I'm not alone in this.
But why drop Python 3.5 as well? Other than f-string, I'm not sure what critical features were brought in with 3.6.
Also agree. Currently following the syllabus to learn Go. Having a good time.
The Paradox of Achieving Scale
Tax, how about royalties to the user. They use that data to advertise to other users within a family or circle. It’s data about us, why shouldn’t they have to pay a royalty to users and get our permissions beforehand when they want to utilize the data in different ways.

We have different licenses for code and projects. Why not have something similar for user data / metadata
Forgive me but the Pixel and iPhones do not have headphone jacks. I can only wonder what phone do you use. Alternatively you mean "plug in" as bluetooth/usb enabled.
I wonder how much of the app store is purely automated at this point. Any human reviewing this should have spotted that it's a scam very quickly.
It's very narrow-minded to assume that because you don't need Facebook, no one does. Facebook clearly provides some value, or no one would use it at all. Some people can't afford not to take advantage of that value. You can't tell a small business "don't use Facebook for social media outreach, it's evil and monopolistic" when the alternative is being outcompeted by those who do.
The Wire Cutter (NYTimes) is doing this more and more and iirc they're quite profitable in doing it. They find the "best" products and give you referral links to buy them.

Sometimes your site searches will show lists of things ("looking for a jacket? see our list of the best cold-weather gear"). This isn't a dark pattern. It's not targeting you the individual, it's targeting you the person who just explicitly showed intent to buy X. It's really how buying online would ideally work in all scenarios.
Remember though that this doesn't replace Apple's prompt!

Unfortunately many cars are already running Android for their infotainment (notable Hyundai/Kia/Genesis and Honda), have Wi-Fi and cellular connections, and never get updated. From this point, securing infotainment systems (such as by using a system updated by Google that also supports updating individual system components, i.e. modern Android), is a step in the right direction.
Huh?

They're worrying about short-term liquidity in order to provide serve in order to maintain their brand, trust, and customer base.

That's... the entire source of the problem. Meeting capital requirements in order to keep running.
I first read this article while working on a project where the company had basically written a RDBMS using MongoDB. It was so many different kinds of bad I lost count.
Right, that was the point. You can never get rid of "bad actors", and even if possible, that would have a myriad of unintended consequences (such as living under authoritarianism).

The irony in this case is that the speech that is attempted to be censored isn't even illegal. (at least in the U.S., where our liberal, cherished "anything goes" approach is enshrined in the Constitution.)

ContentLab | Technical Content Strategist | Toronto, ON | Full-Time, Remote | https://contentlab.io

Are you a developer who loves to write and is looking for a change of pace? If so, this role might be for you.

We’re looking for an inquisitive, imaginative story teller who loves software development, loves writing, and talking to people about writing about software development. This person has had broad experience (though not necessarily deep) in software development.

Our clients need content written that software developers will want to read. We need a client whisperer to talk to our clients about what they are trying to achieve with their content, what their product or service does, and help them weave a story that would make an article worthy of reading.

We're not after fluff. We're after code-first, technical accurate articles that a developer can use to understand a product, to make decisions, or to solve programming problems.

This role isn't to write the articles. It's to help the client understand what needs to be written and provide instructions to our hundreds of deeply technical software developer practitioner authors.

Because otherwise you can't use the software?
You think selling a stock without first owning or borrowing it makes sense?
There was a guy hanging out with his work buddies. Other people within hearing distance. A recent graduate and uncultured, he referred to someone as a chick. So long!

Was it professional to say chick? No. Is it a fireable offense? I’ve heard much worse, but on the other side so it doesn’t even register with people.
Interesting note: "one sentence in this paper is ambiguous [...] I am not going to remove this ambiguity or reveal where it is."

I find it surprising that he didn't actually attempt to change this problematic sentence if it was clearly shown that it leads to incorrect implementations. I get his point about prose, but a tiny footnote on a webpage doesn't feel like the best way to highlight what seems to be a common misunderstanding.

Any idea what this ambiguous sentence might be, and what is this mistake that implementers tend to make?
You cut off the end of the proposition: "...and restricted free market movement of capital in the markets."

It is relatively common for brokers to sell order flow. It is not unheard of for brokers to stop trading in a security for limited periods. It is very strange for brokers to enforce one-way trading in a security as Robbinhood did, and highly suspicious on top of that when the resulting asymmetric trading regime is of enormous commercial benefit to the biggest purchaser of their order flow.
Von Neumann Is Struggling
I have a co-worker who does this, and everyone likes him, especially the boss, since he will jump on anything and get it done. He also seems to work really long hours and weekends, even though he has a family. He also does not seem to want to negotiate for a raise. I've chosen to not be likey coworker and so far I've been promoted, gotten 10 and 15 percent raises, etc. I do tend to rub coworkers and leadership the wrong way sometimes, but that's a trade-off I am fine with. I would rather be happy with my work hours and well paid than well liked.
I don't see why you'd keep 3.5 around
Oso | Software Engineer, Developer Advocate, & Eng Manager | New York City (NYC) | Onsite or Remote

Oso (backed by Sequoia) puts security in the hands of the makers. We're doing this by delivering security as code, or as Charity Majors (cofounder & CTO of Honeycomb) put it, "Consumer-quality developer tools" for security (https://twitter.com/mipsytipsy/status/1288326027001782273) – beginning with an open source policy engine for authorization.

We open sourced Oso last summer, and the feedback has been amazing. We are hiring folks who want shave down the time developers have to spend thinking about things like roles and route authorization. We spend the bulk of our time building the Oso policy language, Polar, and libraries on top of it. We are building the product in Rust, which we think is both a good design choice for our use case and a fun choice for the team. The team members who join now not only have a disproportionately large impact on the product and the community, but also on the culture and future of the company.

We are based in NYC and hiring folks remote or onsite.

I assume the button will prompt a system alert of some kind, no?
Yeah, that's the main weakness. Being able to drop down to markdown from within Slim alleviates the problem to a degree.
do you use a plugin for that?
But it's web scale!

Yes, Carplay and Android Auto either work over Bluetooth or a wire to the car's USB port.
No, the claim "early in the development of trains people were sure it would be physically impossible for humans to travel over 30 mph or so" cannot be correct, because people had been traveling faster than 30 mph on horse back for at least centuries. There's no way anyone can think was true given that they had many counterexamples.

The article you sited says that some people thought there might be issues at 50 mph. Evidently there were some people who thought this, but that doesn't say anything about how wide-spread that thinking was.
Indeed. We're hitting this on some Ubuntu 16.04 (supported until April 2021!) build containers which start their work with the suggested self-upgrade of `pip install -u pip` that then bombs out with SyntaxErrors on subsequent operations due to f-string usage.
For carplay and android auto, you'd plug your phone in via a lightening or a usb-c cable. I think there is wireless carplay and android auto too these days, but I'm not sure if that's available on many vehicles at the moment.
Just an FYI, spike protein is used by virus as means of entering a healthy host's cell. Without it virus becomes like a c4 without detonation cap. More less harmless.
An MEB? 3 or 4 of those is 45 to 60 thousand soldiers. Is that what you had in mind?
This is accurate: Slack is exclusively using Hack/HHVM for its application servers.

HHVM has an embedded web server (the folly project's Proxygen), and can directly terminate HTTP/HTTPS itself. Facebook uses it in this way. If you want to bring your own webserver, though, FastCGI is the most practical way to do so with HHVM.
if you don't have a FB account, why would you install the app?

I think GP is implying that current conservative opinions are tending to diverge further and further from an actual agenda and are instead diverging into conspiracy theories, racism and worse.

Slavoj Žižek: What the wallstreetbets story tells us
Why would anyone read this and think about the implications? I may be overly pessimistic, but I think the average user just sees this modal as a potential obstacle between him/her and the content their brain tells them to consume. I know my first instinct would be to go on the path that minimizes the risk that I don't get to do the things I set out to do.
Ubuntu 16.04 has Python 3.5 as its default `python3`.
Changing SQL schema is honestly just not that hard...

but even still, you can always use json columns in postgres if you don't want the db to enforce a schema.
The practice I'm referring to is "naked shorting" which has been illegal since 2008 in the US.
Snowpack – 5 Reasons It Should Be the Standard Build Tool for Front-End Web Dev
I think that there's a bit of a disconnect between asserting that Robinhood's IPO is dead and being in the comments of an article about them raising "more [cash] than the company has raised in total up until [this] point". Investors clearly see potential in the company.
Call it a scantily-clad short then. A share that is already lent out to a short seller should not be eligible to be lent out again for the same reason I can't get two mortgages to buy the same house - the underlying collateral would be owed to multiple parties.
It's amazing how we're on day 10 of this adventure and people still show up like this is the first and only thread.
> it would be a bit naïve to think that Apple is doing so out of the kindness of their hearts

Good. If they were doing it out of charity, a bit profit pressure, shareholder activism or change in management and the move is reversed. Being grounded in sound business logic and self-interest makes me trust it.
In Q4 alone, they made $53/user in US/Canada, and $10/user worldwide. This revenue is not evenly distributed, and the type of user who is willing to pay $50/quarter for FB is worth much more than that to FB advertisers.

To clarify, this is not considered a naked short because in this situation there is a share that is known to exist.

Re-borrowing the same share does not make it a naked short.
Did you read it? The website isn't criticizing shorting, it's criticizing naked short selling: selling a stock without first owning or borrowing it.
Are you referring to the way that Parler censors views it doesn't agree with?
> Short interest is now far below 100%

With all due respect, this is still speculative. We won't know the exact numbers for another week.
The major takeaway from this is: if your project is mission critical, then don't depend on free/open source infrastructure.

It's not like there is a "rep" you can call at "python" if this is now breaking your build process.

edit: almost all of these replies have missed my point. Yes, you can still use python2, but if you depended on pip for your build process (which I would consider "infrastructure"), then you are out of luck for this and there is nobody you can call to fix it for you.
I use MongoDB in my application. The approach I took is to store data in flat documents (relational style) and only de-normalize when necessary for performance. The relational model was invented for a reason -- it is flexible and it is easy to update data in one place and so on. The downside of relational is that joins will kill you when you have very large tables. To avoid joins, I use lookups when possible, and de-normalize only to the extend needed. I get the best of both worlds.
It’s all on public record; take a look in the relevant IETF working group. There are quite a large number of parties that have made meaningful contributions, and I’m too lazy to find and enumerate any. And in line with my linked comment, Google engineers want those contributions, as the end result of such collaboration is consistently significantly superior to what was developed by one party alone. Google is not strong-arming IETF into doing things. There’s widespread (though certainly not universal) consensus that QUIC or an equivalent is a worthy goal, and worth collaborating on to achieve that end.

Look, I wanted something like QUIC before they produced it, because HTTP/2 was better than HTTP/1.1 in most ways, but had the critical TCP HOLB problem that makes it markedly worse than HTTP/1.1 in some situations—and something like QUIC is the only way of fixing that, since the SCTP approach is no longer socially viable. (And before that, I had long wanted something like HTTP/2, because the limitations of HTTP/1.1 were sometimes rather frustrating. —Though I must confess that I wasn’t immediately taken with SPDY and the particular way Google pushed it initially.)

Google doesn’t own the internet. Let it go. Yes, they have an unhealthily large influence on consumer matters—but also nowhere near as large in infrastructural. Google were the ones to advance the initial SPDY and QUIC proposals because their position as massive server operators and manufacturers of a popular browser meant that they were simply the company best-suited to making such initial development (and sure, it served their interests well too).
Superficially it's a bigger screen, but the real difference is in a user interface designed for minimal driver distraction.

I've only used CarPlay, but the messaging app is a perfect example. The phone's native messaging interface is of course inappropriate for safe driving, being primarily visual. CarPlay's messaging app only gives you a glanceable list of contacts, and you tap one to dictate a message, which is then also read back to you for confirmation (no message text is ever displayed on the screen). I've had entire text conversations without taking my eyes off the road.

For maps and music, the difference may be somewhat less profound, but the same design principles combined with a larger screen that equates to fewer milliseconds scanning for information or steadying your finger to touch a small button, still have a significant effect in keeping driver app use as safe as possible.
