The first build of ClojureScript app is somewhat slow because we need boot the JVM, compile ClojureScript, and then analyze and compile your code. After the first compile it should be sub second. I always use the auto build mode and when I'm developing I don't use any optimizations. Works well enough for me.

When Georgia Tech widely publicized their online CS Masters program AND they explicitly stated that they'd offer credit for relevant experience I jumped on it. I got in touch with them to learn more. Within days they rescinded their experience-based credit offer and went back to the standard credits-for-classes approach. The reason this was interesting to me (and I am sure lots of others) was that I could fast-track a Masters and then consider doing an MBA either online or in person. That, I reasoned, could possibly open some doors. Not sure. It just seemed that the low cost of the Georgia Tech program coupled with probably being able to pull it off in a year or two could have been worth the gamble.

In general terms, it is disappointing that there seem to be no reputable programs that recognize the value of people's life experience. I've shared some of my code with CS department heads in the process of exploring various options for admissions. A couple came back with praise for the range of work I had done and even went as far as saying they didn't understand half of it. Regrettably that was not enough to work out any deals.

The other aspect of engineering education I despise is the need for credits in non-engineering areas. I'm sorry, I'm fifty years old, I have almost no interest in taking a course in sociology, history, geography or English literature. My self-education was not limited to the technical domain. I've read most of the classics, dozens of business and marketing books and have had skin in the game at all levels for years. I can see asking a 19 year old to take an English composition class as part of the path towards an EE or CS degree. I can't see it as even remotely relevant for people at different stations in life. Just a pet peeve of mine.
reddit used to be great, but the level of discourse plummeted when it became popular. I read slashdot mostly for the comments, but I generally stay out of the comments on reddit unless I'm looking for an explanation of something that was posted. Even then, I often have to scroll through pages of idiocy and in-jokes before I find the information I'm seeking.

Moreover, our culture has a tendency to touch up history to downplay successful uses of violence, and emphasize the success of nonviolence.

One salient point I found mentioned about this was in HPMoR, where Harry mentions that Gandhi endorsed the use of nonviolent resistance if the Nazis invaded India. Of course, we know exactly what would have happened if they had done that, and we also have a pretty good idea of what would have happened if the Allies hadn't used violence during WWII.

It's ugly, but the fact is that real life isn't a movie, and the good guys don't always win just because that's what's just.

I've been thinking about this lately, and I wonder how much of the problem is a result of the games themselves. A majority of games, and almost all "real games" (as categorized by people who identify themselves as gamers), are not only violent, but portray violence as the most straight forward way to resolve conflict.

If someone is truly engrossed in a medium where the default interpersonal resolution method is to "defeat" the opposing party by whatever rules are deemed legal by the system, it's not hard to see why every time that person is provided with an alternate viewpoint it would be met with toxic hostility.

If the only tool you have is a gun or sword, everything looks like a target or monster.
I don't understand 5. RSA is used there to encrypt a random value that is used as a KDF input.

"The comments are always terrible. You can argue that some smaller subreddits have really good content, but do they really?"

Yes, they really do. And no, the comments aren't always terrible. You can't simply make absurdly absolute statements and contrived caricatures and expect them to fly.

You seem to have a deep emotional investment in Reddit, as if you put unrealistic expectations in it and now you strike out like a bitter ex-lover (alternately that you go karma bombed, turning you into a one-man anti-Reddit squad).

Reddit is a large site with a lot of diverse people. Many subs are not my cup of tea (/r/wtf is the domain of teenagers), but many others make for an entertaining and often information diversion.

I enjoy it. So do a lot of other people.
LOL - what the hell man. I've used Reddit for about 7 years now, and I've never felt what you're describing. Reddit is a glorified RSS feed with turing complete ranking system :P

The shipped BIOS is a little rough as well.

The T61 which is where my main experience lies has hardware whitelists for WiFi cards and restricts the internal SATA port to basic SATA speeds rather than SATA2 speeds which the chipset supports.

I don't know about Monsanto's product specifically, but a lot of genetic modifications aim for larger yields; greater inherent resistance to pests and/or disease; greater resistance to extremes of temperature and/or moisture; and greater concentrations of certain nutrients, among other things. There's a lot more to it than just pesticides.

And pesticides aren't exactly an optional luxury, either. People can die if an entire region's crop is eaten by locusts or aphids or caterpillars or whatever.
A simple way to understand the gravity of this: the Nazi's Enigma machine was broken with a known-plaintext attack a.k.a a Turing Bombe break. Furthermore, it was the known plain text of previously decrypted messages that was used in further attacks against new keys issued by the Nazis.

When I was young and I found this site, I thought it was the best thing in the world. In my head, I could throw out every other site because all the links are here first! Then I saw the comments, and it's very easy to feel like you're being informed on a topic when you see it has X upvotes (if it's this upvoted, it MUST be true!) when in reality, you have no position to judge the quality of a post because you don't know enough about the topic in the first place.

Now picture that, and then picture 1000 other people just like that upvoting a post, and the cycle repeats itself with every link on and on and on and on.
The trick with Reddit is to ignore all of the default frontpage subreddits and find the niche ones that interest you. There are some great communities buried under the crap.

My post was a bit emotional yeah, just wasted way too much time on it and it shaped me in a bad way.

There are some great posts/comments in very niche subreddits, but when you compare that to the entirety of the website, it's a very very small outlier.

Read my comment as if you are only subbed to the defaults, since that's where OP's picture was posted, that's what I'm arguing.

The existence of a few rare good comments doesn't negate all the shit that Reddit generates.
Because everyone adores Microsoft, and is horrified and gutted that such a useful and loved addition to the internet ecosphere, backed by such an understaffed and money-starved corporation could be hindered by such a tragedy.

People don't work that way. There is quite a bit of discontent or discomfort people will put up with until they are sufficiently motivated to take action. The number of people who are underpaid by 30% and unwilling to look for another job is far greater than the number who would accept that offer once its in front of them.
That would be an excellent feature and years ago I had a laptop that had a simple plastic sliding piece that would cover the camera lens. Later versions eliminated this piece (it probably broke off too frequently).

I have taped a piece of aluminum foil over every webcam on my laptops/iMac with a large piece of packing tape (making it possible to pull it aside when I do rather frequent video conferences).

I get dismissed as paranoid (or the next question that's asked is "what do you do in front of your computer!"). What they don't understand is that years ago I wrote software for a building access kiosk that involved a one-way video chat, followed with a photograph taken of the visitor. I used an open source library for interacting with the camera. When video was running, the light was on. I had the worst time getting the camera to take a picture, but after a bit of tinkering (read: shooting bullets randomly), I had it working. It was my coworker that noticed the light didn't come on when the picture was being taken. I had done something wrong (so wrong that every few pictures, the camera would stop working and wouldn't recover until the entire machine was rebooted). Though I've been writing software professionally for twenty years or so, I had never wrote code to interact with a web cam and yet had somehow managed to stumble upon this entirely by accident. It gave me the willies, so from that point forward, I covered my cameras with a bit of ugly aluminum foil.

I've never really worried about the microphone, but it would be nice to have some kind of hardware control to disable devices that can be used to record in that manner.
I'd advise staying away from any sort of psuedo-anonymous discussion platform without moderation because they always end up the same. Slashdot. Digg. YouTube. Online gaming. Xbox Live. Hacker News.

The Nazi regime was fundamentally self-destructive. German citizens who witnessed the mass Jewish suicide and were swayed by into practicing non-violent resistance would have become targets of the Nazis themselves. Were they to kill themselves to make a point as well?

The only way that loosing the support of the uninformed German masses would have stopped the Nazis is if those previously uninformed German masses took up arms against their government. The Nazis were only going to stop killing once there was nobody left to kill, or once they were killed. They played by a different set of rules.
It _is_ their fault, for repeating the stupid mistakes that Kernighan, Ritchie, et al made when designing Unix and C.
>You don't stand to gain anything from Reddit ever. The comments are always terrible. You can argue that some smaller subreddits have really good content, but do they really? Maybe you'll find a few cool links and an odd article or two.

Your exaggerations and self aggrandizing is stupid and just makes you look ignorant.

If fact, coming here and storming off about it the way you are says more about YOUR personality type than it does about reddit. I love how all of this is your own personal shit that you get to offload on reddit. Pathetic. Pathetic.
I use it for small subreddits too once in awhile. I'm posting about the main subreddits because that's the context of OP's post since her picture was posted in r/WTF.
That works for some people, not being prepared that is. For others it doesn't. Whatever works for you and makes your audience happy is great :)
The thing is, in a multiplayer FPS, the "killing" is just a competitive metaphor. The mechanics for "killing" are oft-remarked as being very unrealistic, and the "death" is just a temporary delay before respawn. It's a kill in name only.

As far as the single-player mode goes, I can't speak from experience... and neither most other CoD players, I wager.
I'm actually a tad worried about what will happen to all the people who coded primarily PHP for their whole life when that roof finally collapses. Seems like it might look a bit like what happened with Symbian / Nokia -- they also had a massive cognitive dissonance over the quality of the developer environment, and when the system finally broke, it broke quickly and in a nasty way.

Then again, it's not impossible to learn a new environment or career path... and I'm quite against the thought that any language could permanently ruin a coder.

Additionally, something being popular implying it's good is a blatant fallacy.
I can understand they can the attack was done through Tor, what I don't understand is how they understood the attack originated on their own network through Tor.
>Or you can buy an HP Z820. OSX is pretty much moot for workstation grade machines. The software is all cross platform.

Depends on the software you use. For scientific computing, maybe.

For other tasks a Mac Pro would be used, no. Logic Pro, for example, is not cross platform. Neither is Final Cut Pro. And even if I depend on something like Adobe CC, most multimedia pros prefer to use it on the Mac, because of other benefits of using OS X.

>And wires dangling everywhere? To get anything other than comedy storage, you're going to need a pile of lightning devices hanging off it.

Or just a cable and a NAS.

But that's the outside, which is a given that you'd need multiple disks. Ever seen a video pro using just the internal HDs on his Desktop machine? Each project usally takes a whole disk by itself. Nobody uses the internal disks for 4K work.

>And don't give me all that crap about Apple being tried and tested - last MacBook Pro I had was totally unreliable.

Sure it was, as were several other units from the 1-2 million sold of the same MBP production run.

Now lets see how many unreliables you'd get from 1-2 million different self-built PCs.

That's the comparison that matters.
That has always been a config setting that should absolutely be turned off.
There's a difference between salary history and salary expectations.

And if they had the nerve to Google your past salary, then I think you could turn that around and ask for a similar matrix to what you had at your last, more transparent company.

If they refuse, and you can't justify the salary to yourself given the situation, you're probably better off staying at the transparent company. There's more to a job than money, after all.
This post is awesome and deserves much better feedback than "reddit sux lol". Thanks for taking the time to write it OP, as well as sharing it with reddit in the first place. I think it was probably a beneficial thing overall. Cheers.
Irrelevant - they talk about a technical issue they're familiar with. I can ask them questions about that issue. It's a good way to gauge their skill level while keeping them on familiar terrain.

It's usually fairly straightforward to see if somebody talks about their own experiences or is retelling a story they simply heard.
I do agree that it probably shouldn't be allowable; even minor pieces like webcam firmware have proven very important (see the Apple webcam firmware with no light story from a few days ago).

Plus without the requirement to release firmware for co-processors, some full machines with the potential for DMA and all sorts of nefarious concepts can exist that nobody even notices (SMC, WiFi, Bluetooth, "fan managers" and so on).

With that being said no modern CPU vendor would even think about open-sourcing their CPU microcode especially, so the FSF are stuck between a rock and a hard place. With a true "every single thing open" requirement in place, the only general purpose PC made in the last ten years or so that could hope to come close to passing would be a Chinese MIPS laptop.

My previous comment was wrong[0]. I will not edit it out due to my sheer oversight to understand the current situation and to take ownership. Also I checked I'm too late edit it and leave a note about my mistake. I'd also like to apologize for CoinBase for the excessive microscopic biased scrutiny.

Unfortunately it seems like I misunderstood your earlier message. A delay in simply transferring the fund doesn't open them up for the scrutiny and criticism I demonstrated in the previous post.

If the delay in sending the wire transfer was caused due to a non-regulatory delay such as human/tech error they are at fault for the delay in the wire and at worst may by their own accord make a gesture of goodwill but are not required to, a complaint against them would result a tap on the wrist at worst and of course loss of your goodwill.

Cancelling an already executed transaction would not be considered fair.

Of course if the wire transfer was not yet initiated they could have cancelled it.

> They charged me for an automatic buy order that I forgot to cancel... at $823.09/BTC

This is one of the reasons I am against their alleged model of buying BTC before a wire transfer clears. If it was an error (not saying it was not) and you informed them in a timely manner and they did not act in a timely manner (which seems to be a trend) you don't have to pay and they are stuck with the losses if BTC went down, on the flip-side if you did not notice your error and/or report it on time, you are stuck with the losses and/or liability (hello collection agencies!).

Yes you are right most of the big sites use spdy. The issue I meant to speak of was Its not that easy to use in the 'immediate' type of way.

If I wanted to build a site running on SPDY and have a client side app to communicate to the server its not fully covered.

Nginx wouldn't help to fully enjoy full of the benefits of SPDY because it would just be a transparent proxy back towards http.

For instance I want to connect to my meteor app over DDP using SPDY but Its not possible to do that yet.

I remember hearing about a Brazilian company where employees could pick their own salary, and everything was totally transparent. The catch, of course, is that you have to continue to show you're "worth" that salary. And if you don't hit deliverables, well, maybe your salary or expectations should change.
