It's just after

> "The main, 24-foot parachute was just flapping in the breeze and was tangled in its own shroud lines. It hadn’t opened! I could see the white folds neatly arranged, fluttering feebly in the air.

So... after the flame-out, after the fire, after the lack of radios, after the failed ejection, after the canopy manual ejection, after jumping out of the plane, after not hitting the tail, then after pulling his parachute and it doesn't open does he finally think - man this is serious.
> When asked by The Wall Street Journal’s Joanna Stern if the company would replace Lightning, Apple’s senior VP of worldwide marketing, Greg Joswiak, answered by saying: “Obviously, we’ll have to comply; we have no choice.”

Apple can greenwash their ads all they want, but I think their trust attitude of profits > environment shows when they're all huffy about a simple connector change.
Were they actually "skirmishing" though? I thought it was mostly border guards scuffling, even engaging in hand-to-hand combat at one point.
"biological Intelligence" sounds very racist to me.
> why someone would want Python to run on the JVM

* to run faster

* to get a better JIT compiler, better GC, sandboxing, etc

* to run using code from other JVM languages in the same process

* to get the JVM's monitoring tools

* to embed into a Java application
It depends. They couldn't acquire Tiktok because it was tied to the Chinese Govt. Who is to say their biggest competitors going forward won't be unbuyable yet again? They've survived to the degree they have by important purchases like Instagram and WhatsApp but if they can't make similar key purchases going forward they are in trouble. Hence the big bet on VR that is showing no real momentum, they need something they own and built in house because it is the only "sure" way to maintain market position. Get there first.
If you're in the US. Starting next year, the Inflation Reduction Act added a $1900 tax credit for purchasing heat pump water heaters so it might pay off earlier than you think.
IMO Lightning is significantly better than USB-C purely for feel. It's slightly smaller and clicks in very well. The only real issues with it are that its 1. proprietary, and 2. only supports USB 2.0 speeds. The fact that to use it you must buy a license is real unfortunate because I really like the form factor.
Is it necessary to drill a hole in the head of the subject to use this tiny microscope?
CA and NY are about to have laws go into effect that require posting the salary range, should make that question a bit easier to answer. Just put in the highest part of the range.
There's also a much easier way to fix [monetary] inflation and that is fiscal - just raise taxes. Much quicker to propagate through the economy too. Just politically challenging.

Right now fiscal is doing the exact opposite, i.e. giving people stimulus while FED raises rates.
None of those companies are worth working for. If they were worthwhile, they wouldn't use Taleo.

This definitely makes the situation quite a bit more sticky, however hope is not completely lost IMHO. For example, there have been several cases recently dealing with binding arbitration clauses and the TCPA, and in several of them, the binding arbitration clause was found to be unenforceable [1].

If it were me, I'd still send the demand letter and see how it plays out.

How exactly do you think a company becomes the biggest most profitable in the world?
Think we're in agreement might have worded my post poorly, on a long enough timeline having to pay Apple a 30% cut of your holiday rental of pizza as absurd as it sounds to some people today just sounds like the logical conclusion when we already pay them 30% of say an videogame item or app subscription.
The securities rating folks basically rated subprime crap as prime. Nobody could trust anything so everyone want to sell and not buy.
My bank charges for wire transfers, I think that's pretty standard in the US.

Or feel free to stub in an example from a brokerage app, eg selling shares of a mutual fund that charges an early redemption fee.
We shouldn’t, and I won’t. I’ll sell all my Apple hardware and convert to Linux on the laptop, Windows for the gaming rig (already there) and Pixel for phone. I’ve kept all my stuff on non-Apple/Google platforms like 1Password and Dropbox so switching will be trivial.
I don't want stories like this to be the reason I'm glad I switched to Graphene OS. I don't want anyone hacked or spied on.
> EU will freeze this winter, tens of thousands will die

This is pure, politically-motivated FUD. Europe certainly has some energy issues to figure out, but there is absolutely no indication that "tens of thousands will die." Please stop and consider whom your hysterical rhetoric benefits.

(Not to mention this is completely off-topic...)
Unfortunately, I think this is the future. We already had one reality TV star president. We have a TV "doctor," and a football player running for senate this year. I wouldn't be at all surprised if a lot of social media influencers end up in office. This is, of course, if the internet platforms remain relatively open.

The other scenario (and I think more likely) is that the internet media platforms will use the political power that their gatekeeper status confers on them to promote their own narrow interests. They will form their own content arms which will be algorithmically favored, and cut the old legacy media gatekeepers out entirely.

Pick your poison.
Not that hard for an experienced jumper.
The EU is toasty and sitting on near 100% storage while building out more capacity for shipped gas.. The trouble with panic based political states is that their panic is infectious. A system that can't even plan what it wants in 2 years is a system in a death spiral.
Generics too right?

Of course nobody would exploit this by submitting a PR that just deleted the failing test…

Adding money to the mix or automating rewards is asking for abuse and would decrease the quality of the software.

Also, which open source project is awash with money that could afford to pay out?

I think this (monetisation/crypto) is a solution looking for a problem and open source isn’t it…
Something similar happened to my dad (USAF fighter pilot) in around 1961 or 62: He was test-flying a T-33 single-engine jet trainer assigned to his unit after it'd had repair work. The engine quit and wouldn't restart. He ejected, but his parachute didn't deploy fully (much the same as in the article) and he got tangled in the shrouds. He said a quick Hail Mary just before crashing head-first in a muddy, fresh-plowed field. The pilot of another plane in the area saw the crash and radioed the tower to send the meat wagon and not the ambulance, but my dad walked away with just a headache — and with his helmet split open like a melon. The impact apparently damaged his inner ear: five years later he started getting vertigo while aloft, and soon afterwards got medically grounded. (That meant he lost the extra flight pay and was reduced to his base pay, with four school-aged kids while stationed in the Washington DC area — to make ends meet, my mother had to go back to work as an RN [registered nurse].)

EDIT: What I remember was that when my dad crashed (see above), my mom came to get me from playing with the neighbor kids in their yard. Dad had called her from the flight surgeon's office and told her about the crash (very nonchalantly, she later said), and that he was OK. So six-year-old me blithely went on playing. Of course, my mom had been living with that possibility all their married life ....
I'll concede that Python has more nuanced bits of complexity exposed, but I suspect a willingness to break compatibility for the sake of performance would benefit the language a lot more than it would hurt it. I personally hope the hacker mentality and the immensely perf-driven nature of JavaScript is one day adopted by Python.

For those following, I want to make it clear that the "bits" being discussed are extremely nuanced and won't get in the way of doing obviously useful things in JavaScript.

Here's how you create a JS Object from C using Node-API: https://nodejs.org/api/n-api.html#napi_create_object

It conforms to ECMAScript 6.1.7 Object Types and is very much the same internal representation used by the VM.

Here's how one might tickle the internal representation used by Node.js (V8 in this case) to change the value of the underlying property of a JavaScript object from C: https://nodejs.org/api/n-api.html#napi_set_element
Depends for who it's "worth". Was fighting the Nazis not worth it either?
I learned my lesson about that the hard way back in the early 00s

I logged into LinkedIn, and it seemed like it was loading, but then the login failed and it prompted me to log in again. I tried and it didn't work, then looked more carefully.. and the second login prompt was actually a "Give us your e-mail login so we can scrape all your contacts and spam them" prompt.

Hoo boy, glad I was using separate passwords for everything
Both scenarios result in total human collapse; which we have not seen. So perhaps your math is wrong.
This is actually a good idea for this -- the user wants the education, they can pay for it with their own hardware. Keep your costs low!
agree. Track record says way more than words.
That's correct. It's a bit of a meme on twitter where someone will make some statement, then that phrase. Eg "20k seagulls die every day from choking on keurig pods. Let that sink in." Musk is parodying that with a physical sink.
I once got a call from my mother, who lives in a different state, that someone was calling her looking for me. They'd called a number of times by this point. I returned the call and it turned out to be a recruiter who I had not responded to. The recruiter proceeded to use a lookup service which correlated my mothers phone number to me, which he then used to get in contact with me.

I understand that finding people who do what I do is hard, but that scenario made me sick to my stomach.
yes. Let that "sink" in.
Two things can be bad and we're allowed to complain about both.

But either way trafficking is typically shorthand for slavery in practise. The thing with trafficking specifically is that it is more likely to go somewhere that it can be spotted. Airports have signs in the bathrooms saying "if you're being held against your will try to get to this part of the airport" because it's the trafficking piece of the slavery/trafficking combo that takes the victim into the airport in the first place. Being trained to spot trafficking in jobs like TSA agents is thus very useful regardless of the slavery situation.

That’s exactly my thinking as well :)
Tweets will provide the training data for Neuralink wetware. Twitter will be the official default communications platform for when you're jacked in.
Do you happen to know why web browsers don't already do something like this? I find that a large number of domains are called every minute. I say domains as most of them seem to be providing Javascript, although some of them are the web site I have loaded. Very occasionally I can see a legitimate purpose, such as refreshing a page showing a web interface to an email account, but most of the time there doesn't seem to be a legitimate purpose.

Btw, this is from using Little Snitch on the Mac. If I temporarily block the refresh, nothing bad ever seems to happen.
> What’s wrong with strict typing and ahead of time compilation as long as it compiles fast? Doesn’t this prevent many runtime errors that can occur in Python?

Nothing, it's all good things: It's easier to write, easier to debug, and the compiler (not the user) catches bugs.
Well don't leave us in the dark...

What actions have you noticed that contradicts his statements?

So we can debate whether or not you came to the right conclusion in interpreting said actions.

Or were you just making general hand waving statements?

To your point, rape statistics in Sweden seemed to be the major talking point on this issue, and would generally trigger the response you describe.
When I left my last job (BigTechCo) I was explicitly told by HR and my manager that I'd always be welcome back, just reach out. That company got a lot wrong but the HR department and my immediate management chain really did a great job.
IMO selecting the most talented candidates from among a candidate pool is, for all intents and purposes, impossible. Interviews are a joke, past experience ends up being basically meaningless, and references are too easily gamed. I think the whole idea of hiring the most talented individuals is a fools game. I'm sure many people disagree, but this has been my experience over the years. In fact, I think trying to go for the best candidates will hard backfire most of the time: you'll end up paying far more for no real gain.

So if we assume that we are going to get a more or less random sample of quality then what you can we screen for? As far as I can tell there's basically only two positive signals we can look for: motivation and agreeableness. So I think that explains why interview processes end up the way they do.

Maybe that's an overly cynical take, but I really just don't think that it's possible to find the "best candidates," so you end up just filtering for what you can control.
I'd be very nervous about being a GCP customer right now. Cloud services is hemorrhaging cash. How long before Google pulls the rug out from underneath a bunch of the services on GCP that aren't making money?
It’s obvious that they just chickened out after some phone calls were made. Pathetic, but not surprising in a country where the press refuses to report the most basic facts about the war, like the fact that Ukraine is shelling the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. You don’t shell the power plant you’re occupying , nor do you blow up the pipeline you have spent billions to construct, especially when it helps link you to Germany (something the US always hated).
When I and many people I know wanted to live this way or other simple ways we ended up with mandatory 3 bedroom apartments and the decision of whether to navigate roommates or leave a lot of space vacant to get a single accommodation. Those apartments would be available in the market to people that need them, so we were prevented from living how we wanted to keep those prices up.

- If you can trust an employee with a $25K ($50K today) computer, trusting them with a complete source tree isn't a stretch.

- I'd be more pissed off that somebody didn't have a complete backup somewhere, even if it was a personal laptop they used for work.

- Back then, most people didn't have home computers. Hell nowadays a home pc isn't a guarantee, as most of my (non-engineering) coworkers only have cellphones and ipads at home. And while I agree don't mix work and play, most of these people do.
Susman was the Supervising Technical Director and the machine was a Silicon Graphics workstation. Certainly sounds like she was given a work machine to do her job.
Yes, that's probably why. Musk likes dumb puns. Or maybe knows that his fans like them and that it gets attention without saying anything real.

You're definitely overcomplicating it. Security that's too hard to make use of isn't really accomplishing anything.
Nominally independent but in practice the government still exercises a lot of power over fiscal policy. Thus, it is odd that the government has not exercised its power despite the upcoming election. Likely, lots of politicians will lose their jobs because the people will blame them for the bad economy.
I don't know if this really counters my point, mainly because the tweet this is in reply to was deleted, so there might be more useful context there.

I don't have the link handy since I'm on mobile, but they've stated in a GitHub issue that they're not going to maintain v2 support, just activate the extended enterprise support to give users more runway. This just seems to be a mock-up of a toggle for that extended enterprise support and links to the extensions since they won't be downloadable from the consumer Chrome extension store.

I will admit that they haven't been clear (perhaps intentionally), but I have yet to see an announcement that explicitly states that they will independently maintain v2 support.
> The Justice Department’s Autopilot probe is far from recommending any action partly because it is competing with two other DOJ investigations involving Tesla one of the sources said. Investigators still have much work to do and no decision on charges is imminent this source said.

This is definitely a thing that happens. If you are ever doing crimes, just be sure to commit a whole bunch of them so the DOJ has to move more slowly. It's a too-many-cooks-in-the-kitchen kind of thing.
If you can't identify the value of a question then you can't adequately rate responses to that question. The "risk" of removing them is what, exactly?

Unless you're feeding those responses into an ATS system that's doing some data correlation/massaging on the backend, in which case can you identify why the system things the question is important - if not, refer to first line.

The best "gadget" for saving energy is a sweater. Conserve your own body heat and turn down (or off) the furnace. If you're concerned about your energy bill and you're also wearing tshirts indoors in winter, you're doing it wrong. Get long sleeve shirts, put on two or three layers, get some warm clothing like sweaters and thick wool socks. Then turn your furnace down to 10 C / 50 F. I promise you will survive. Your pipes won't freeze. With warm clothing, you will even be comfortable.
Speaking about tools like Frama-C, it is important to note that while there is an overhead during development of Rust programs because of the type system, proving the absence of runtime errors in industrial size programs using Frama-C is not something easy, and it remains quite costly (and to be fair, far more costly than making Rust programs type). However, it is true that you can catch some errors that are not caught by the Rust type system, say for example, integer overflows. But I would not bet that all problems caugth thanks to the type system of Rust can be caught using Frama-C.

Now, if we focus on functional properties (proving that the code is correct), one terribly hard problem when dealing with real world programs is handling the shape of the memory. That can make some proofs awful and really hard to complete. In a language like Rust, you can get a lot of information about the shape of the memory and the memory separation for free thanks to the type system. That would make proofs really easier (this is for example what is done, but with far less precision than what the Rust type system could provide, in the different memory models configuration in Frama-C/WP and it can already dramatically improve proof performance).

It probably does not justify rewrite everything, nor changing verification tools chains that are in use in some critical domains. However, I would definitely love working on and working with a Frama-Rust tool ;)
To "roll your own crypto" is to develop your own cryptographic primitives/constructions, versus using known-good, well-vetted, best-practice standard tools like NaCl / libsodium.

> we rolled out our own crypto

"roll out" means to deploy, so to "roll out your own crypto" could mean either one. Did you mean that you developed your own crypto? If so, that could be a not insurmountable, but large, impediment to gaining trust.
But in the long run they need those customers to generate shareholder value. If someone manages to end around them on online advertising Google could be in trouble. Big caveat being so long as they are part of the smartphone duopoly it gives them a pretty healthy moat.

I bought a Samsung CLX-6220FX series. For private use, "overkill" and big upfront investment. But looking back, it was cheap. Only had to buy a couple of times toner, and no problems at all. So my recommendation: go big, search for a "small office" printer. They are much robust, and in the long run, will be cheaper.
Probably one of the worst investment decisions (outside of cryptocurrency) that I’m aware of. 40 billion dollars for a platform with such negligible reach and even lower potential for monetization?

Okay, using your own reference, they also say that the median was 13.2 years.

Anyway, from that article you cited, a stunning 76% of homeowners stayed longer than 8 years.

It seems what more than 3/4 of homeowners do is simply live in the damn thing.
Google, went from ~$60 (March 2020) to ~$145 (August 2021) .. that's more than ~140% in ~1y ??? Did revenue grow that much to justify this crazy appreciation?

Now, it sits at around ~$95, still ~50% gain since pre-covid ...

I think the 2020 was a bubble and as such was not sustainable. Things are simply normalizing.

And don't get me started on stocks like TWLO, ZM, etc ...
Python is in its awkward stage, something like PHP in ~2008. It's not super fast, it's got a good following but the changes to the core api's cause breaking changes, it's being used for things that maybe it shouldn't be, and it's facing a lot of competition from other languages.

I had to laugh a few months back when someone suggested we switch a newish project to python from PHP 8.1 because "python is built in C" and "it's better for multithreaded math functions". A lot of misinformation out there.
