I'm not sure I'd describe preferring control over safety would really qualify as "more centered and cautious".

I understand that a lot of people are more concerned about control than safety (e.g. tons of people who are more afraid to fly than to drive, even though it's vastly safer), but it's a clearly irrational preference.
I can't upvote this enough. The first thing that jumped out at me when I was browsing the photos is the prominent "Macbook Air" branding on the laptop. Unless you have Apple's permission to use their trademark in your work, you could be on shaky legal ground should they choose to pursue legal action against you.

There's a reason why advertisers will edit out branding of products that they happen to use in their ads. The most prominent examples I can think of are tire companies. They use recognizable luxury and sports cars to show off their tires, but, if you look closely, they've edited out the logos and nameplates of those cars. Presumably this is to legally shield themselves from those car manufacturers accusing the tire company of misusing their trademarks, or implying an endorsement where none exists. In this case, it might be wise to edit out the Macbook Air and Apple branding, so that it doesn't look like you're being endorsed or supported by Apple.

Ships are usually pretty sane, at least y military standards. Officers' mail tends to be addressed to the wardroom (the Naval equivalent of the Officer's Mess). Other ranks' mail goes to their mess, which is generally designated by bulkhead number and port/starboard. (Rank s, of course, optional, and not expected on civvy mail.) The "street" is the ship's name, city is the home station (and where the mail is sorted and dispatched) and there is usually a separate postal code for each ship. So, for a fictional Canadian Able Seaman:

Ralph Rackstraw
19 Starboard,
HMCS Pinafore,
CFB Halifax, NS (, CANADA - optional)
X1X 1X1

The system in Oz at least used to be similar. Which is great if you're actually posted to a vessel. That isn't always the case in Canada; we air types, the folks what flies and fixes the helicopters, are nominally "Air Force" and are seconded to ships for voyages only, remaining on squadron strength back at our home airfield, so unless one is vigilant about changing addresses every few weeks, important mail may be headed to your post box at the barracks while you're at see and to the ship while you're at home.

Well, it does not talk about the main problem that sef-driving cars have today:

Put two cars together using the same LIDAR light or the same frequencies and you have a terrible problem.

Not sure that follows, since 'bad guys' aren't monolithic.

It may still be less damaging for only 'some' bad guys to be using the vulnerability, and continue to think that only they know it. (Thus, they use it sparingly). Immediate full disclosure means 'all' bad guys learn of the vulnerability, and then perhaps rush to maximally exploit (knowing they're in a race to use ASAP or lose their chance).
It's bad in that it is difficult for an individual to track exactly what they have revealed about themselves. It is very easy for someone to unintentionally reveal more than they may have intended.

Coffee storage
Given the amount of effort startups put into getting accounts, correlating their social media accounts and harvesting user data, and run aggressive analytics, I find it a bit disheartening that the comparatively minimal effort necessary to let them leave is ever considered a waste of time.

I shouldn't be considered a fly trapped in amber just because I happened to want to try a site out, particularly when so many require an email address or facebook account to sign up or sign in (and in some cases, to find out what it is the service does.) Hashing passwords is extra work too. Common courtesy towards users should count towards the minimal amount of work necessary for a site. It's not as if the users who want to leave, now want to stay because you want to hold on to their data.
They can only do so much to predict the future based on the past. When they fund loans today based on today's default rate they have no way to know what crisis hits in 3 years to cause a spike in defaulted loans. The system must correct itself with enough padding to cover the smaller fluctuations.

Seems like a number of comments are missing the good here. A quick summary of my takeaways:

- Ability to leverage talent to speedy outcomes is the competitive advantage of startups. Lean heavily on this.

- Startups habitually underestimate their ability to attract top talent. Don’t submit to this line of thinking, or at minimum work to prove your hypothesis of impossibility.

- One should be ruthless in early shaping of company culture. Certain things are absolutely necessary to get right -- this is one.

- The things that scare away second tier talent can actually attract top tier people. Like focusing product development on your ideal user, one should focus hiring energies on ideal hires.
> Yes, unless the system to detect that has malfunctioned.

Are the systems that detect malfunction right now single-overseer systems that do sanity checks, or are they redundant driving systems that check to see if they agree?

You'd probably want both, but it seems some arrangement of the latter (maybe 3-5 systems) would be likely to provide a better failover scenario: the driving systems constantly check if they agree, if they don't, there's a majority vote for short-term action and an alert to the driver that they should take over and get the car serviced.

I'm sure there's still scenarios where that wouldn't work -- car-wide problems or outside interference impacting all systems at once, or even just improbable simultaneous failures that would happen with enough time -- but maybe it's what they have in mind.

Yes, by a huge margin. I rank my preferences like so:

I'm going to guess that they are orders of magnitude safer than gas stations.

Firstly: no ground pollution. Gas stations are terrible for the land they are built on as they leak lots of organic compounds into the soil.

Secondarily: no large reservoirs of combustible materials. I don't know the details of the supercharging stations, but I'd guess that they are at least as safe as the electric transformers we see on telephone poles everywhere.
And I think your perspective says more about your personal motivations in your daily life than anything else.

There are always going to be some people motivated by money (like perhaps yourself), some by helping others, some by some other measure of personal satisfaction.

To say all physicians work on the incentive of personal money is a paranoid view which, in my experience, is grossly simplistic. There are good doctors, and there are bad doctors. It's equally (in)valid to say that everything anyone does in any profession is entirely motivated by financial gain.

My problem with stock photos is, people in them look like robots. Understandable, since they are usually not actors. Many times when they are talking, they don't look at each other but some crap object. When taking 20 variants of a scene, at least one should involve people talking with each other. That's what people usually do when they pose for a stock photo set for an hour.
Right, because no startups have come out of Stanford and every successful was so because of their commitment to 'diversity' from the start.
I think some of that difficulty is because we mostly build up driving intuition on clear roads. An auto-driver will have relatively objective heuristics to evaluate road conditions, which is where humans make a lot of their mistakes (that is, humans frequently just fail to realize that the road is slippery).
Man I just think naming this thing 'pirate' anything is a bad opening move. Or is this by the PirateBay guys? Then I guess it sorta makes sense.
I'm traveling, so it will be a while before I can check with the team, but the initial message that kicked off his investigation referred to clicks to his site, which I believe can include overall traffic to his site. I'll double-check when I'm back from traveling though.

I was also responding to the overall headline of his site ("How Google Authorship decreased our traffic by 90%") because there are other reasons for the decline in traffic to his site. The headline is definitely overstating things; the article itself concludes "Turns out, it's not that simple. Some pages moved down, but some have improved drastically." And on the graph he shows, the worst CTR decrease is -57% while the best CTR increase is 329%.

So I think the headline of this article ("How Google Authorship decreased our traffic by 90%") remains inaccurate.

>Go is the new (old) Java and the arguments echo those of 15 years ago.

I don't think anybody (that is, more than a few outliers) said anything about Java being "boring" back then. It's in the last 5-7 years, after J2EE came out of favour, that is in vogue to say these kind of things. And I know that, because I was around back then. Java was supposed to be safer, yes, but nobody said it was supposed to be boring or targeted to enterprise drones. On the contrary, it was deemed "revolutionary" and the language of the rich web (because of applets).

>1) created for people less smart than the designers

Well, most programmers are indeed less smart than Ken Thompson or Rob Pike, so that would be a good call IF it was true.

But from what I have read, it was created to be the perfect language FOR it's designers, scratching THEIR pain points -- not targeted to some inferior programmers. And it's designers were and are are very fond of the language and heavy users of it.

So, I don't see where you got your (1) point.

>2) designed to be easy to use in a corporate environment with large teams of varying abilities (the 'simplicity', which is really more familiarity: most people can write boilerplate filled imperative C-family language style code already).

Who said Go is about 'boilerplate'? One of the design goals was to reduce boilerplate, and in practice it's very succint, eg. to get the same thing going, compared to Python code.

>3) attempts to make certain types of errors harder than the languages it replaces (in Java thats memory errors, in Go it's concurrency errors), but by ignoring established PL research still gives you a big gun that is loaded and aimed at your foot (doing concurrency in Java with threads and locks, NULL and deadlocks in Go, etc). i.e. very conservative when it comes to adopting PL ideas, but perhaps bringing one old idea to the mainstream, and being prepared to make a lot of sacrifices (to ensure an 'easy' language) to get people on board with that one idea.

So, in essence, it's not a hodgepodge of newfangled PL research like Haskell. Sounds good to me.

>The amusing thing is that the creators of Go are some of the fiercest critics of Java, but they have created something that seems to follow a very similar philosophy to the original Java.

Well, they are not critics of the original Java. Matter of fact, some of them have also programmed lots of in Java in the past.

>I don't mean this as a slight against Go (or Java!). I just find the comparison illuminating.

Well, you sure sound like you do.

This site is great. Does the image placement, and blending correclty
Expensive, yes. But expensive compared to value produced?

Every decent programmer has stories of a time they put in 10 hours of work to save a highly paid person 20 hours/month for the rest of time. I say stories because there are many such. On my resume I list a number of cases where I added X millions/year to the bottom line of small-medium companies. It is not a complete list. What value should an efficient market put on a programmer who does that repeatedly?

For those willing to work as an employee in the Los Angeles area, the value the market places is significantly under $200k/year. Now you tell me, is that expensive relative to value?

Always name a range. Bound it on the low end by your minimum. Otherwise you're essentially removing their ability to give you n% for free.

In a few cases, I've seen offers come back right in the middle of the range, when I was expecting the bottom. Free money!

Ideally, have 2 offers that are aware of each other and name the range. They won't both come back with the bottom number. At least, not in this market. They've wasted a ton of time and need to hire someone, so they're going to make their offer count. Internal recruiters have performance-based metrics too, and while I'm sure getting a better deal on a hire looks good, failing to fill positions is not good.

>Is it worse than exceptions?

No, but "is it worse than the very worst possible option" isn't a good standard to use.

>Compared to?

ADTs.

>Why is that?

Because you can use the value even when an error occurred. The type system should prevent this, as is trivially done in every language with ADTs.

The "ick factor" - which is pretty much reduced to a minimum if the donor stool is processed appropriately anyway - may not be long for the world. There has been at least one small scale study using synthetically derived donor samples - essentially taking someone's stool, figuring out what the hell is in it, and culturing accordingly.

That may also solve one of the big burdens behind using fecal transplant as a common technique - while the procedure itself isn't too expensive (though its not trivial, getting microbes past your stomach acid in quantity is no small thing), testing donor stool is, because of the amount of things we could accidentally give you. Synthetic donor culture would have less of a problem with that.
But they're still affected by people who do use the Internet.

Animals: Google driverless car has already been shown to avoid collisions with unexpected animals (like, say, a deer).

Snow and Ice: the sensors about wheel rotation and speed used in fancy automatic suspensions are more than able to control for slippage. I'm willing to bet that once prepared, a driverless car could deal with these hazards with much more finesse than a human pushing a pedal with no idea what kind of friction coefficient their vehicle's tire is getting.

Stock photography sites are about being able to search with any keyword and come up with a photo that you can instantly use. The value is in convenience, not the photos themselves
