Those are differences in emphasis (DIgest vs diGEST). Tonal differences in Mandarin are more subtle. The same syllable is emphasized, but the "shaping" of the pronunciation is changed.

Also note that OP stated that he or she couldn't distinguish between Mandarin tones, not tonal differences in general. This is not difficult to believe, as your ear becomes trained to recognize differences in your native language and ignore slight differences in pronunciation that don't affect the meaning.
First, I demanded nothing.
I pointed out one should not assume something is true because someone, particularly someone with a clear interest in the outcome and process, said it.

Second, This is somewhat pedantic.
The OP simply assumed what whatever Jane said was true, and then went from there.

Your complaint is essentially that i did not add the words "in every case i have been part of, and every one i know about in sufficient independent detail" in front of "always". All told, that's about 43 cases.

Feel free to pretend i did write that, if it suffices.

If not, feel free to disbelieve me!
No evidence of legal wrongdoing, which is a pretty high bar. Many companies will expect better of their president than "did not actually act illegally".
Flynn definitely isn't "ready" yet. This is a preview release, production grade stability is still a few months away.

I haven't looked closely at Deis in several months, but Flynn doesn't use Chef (or anything similar) anywhere and don't plan to.
Specifically #2- not entirely. Apparently the engineer who sexually harassed her was recently promoted to Engineering lead.

Edit: I'm not stating an opinion in any direction here, just relaying information for discussion. In all honesty, this entire thing looks like one big cartoon dustcloud of a fight and taking any sides here would be bad judgment on my part.
This is really a false equivication.

The price of $2 or $3 per episode does not itself justify that the cost of Netflix streaming should increase.

I could create an alternative service that charges $50 or $100 per episode, and the existence of such an absurd service does not itself imply that Netflix should charge $20/month.

The quote seems deceptive as presumably the patient had a brain scan reading that they interpreted as "no" shortly after asking "Are you in pain?".

Just from the article I'm dubious. They presented no evidence that this isn't wishful thinking, which I'd be keen to establish it wasn't if I was in their place. Could just be journalists fudging the message though.

Which again is very similar to JNI. I'm genuinely curious as to how Go's FFI differs from Java's to make that a distinguishing characteristic between the 2 languages.
Personally, I find the most interesting thing is that the quality of pirated content is often superior to that aquired by legal means.

If the legal distributors can't compete on price, and refuse to compete with quality or convenience, what else have they got?
That's not how community property works. Teresa effectively owned an indivisible half of Tom's Github stock via the community property laws, but this does not make her a board member. Board members are selected by the company pursuant to various legal mechanisms not subject to community property laws because a board position is not a "property."

It's been my plan since high school to figure out a way to work for myself eventually, though I was very grateful for my job at Google. After the initial 2 years, my work at Google began feeling more routine (I chose to stay in the same team, and I was getting better at my job at the cost of learning fewer new things). I left after 4 years after deciding that I had learned enough and saved enough to move on to what I've viewed as the next stage.
There is an interesting juxtaposition when combining Horvath's (1) and (7): "Bullying someone into… the best decision of my life: …Illegal."
If you like doing real object-oriented programming, then nominal subtypes are mighty useful.
Some possible explanations:

a) There is zero legal merit. As an outside observer, I don't know one way or another. I presume you don't either. (Remember the law does not always track your intuition.)

b) Even if there is some theoretical legal merit, the independent investigation results (if what we're told is the entirety of the conclusions) may make it an uphill battle to pursue the claim.

c) There is actual legal merit but the potential plaintiff is choosing not to pursue the matter.

d) There is actual legit merit and the attorneys are in settlement talks right now.

e) There is actual legal merit and a lawsuit will be filed before the statute of limitations expire.

Who knows?

I personally only care about the shipping. I'd gladly ditch all of the other tack-on services for $10 less a year.
You appear to have had very different experiences than me.

Horvath said the founder spoke of having spies, etc.

The founder says she did nothing of the sort, and blah blah blah
I would thus expect the truth is "the founder said she kept in touch with goings-on in the company through friends" or something similarly in-between.

Not "The founder has hired spies that prepare detailed daily reports" (which would be very strongly to one side) or "the founder has no idea what goes on in the company, and knows nobody" (which would be to the other).

IMHO, of course. Maybe you have a different view of what it would mean to lean strongly to one side of the spectrum in that situation?

It's probably not what you meant to say, but it is a plausible reading of the actual text - it's just a slightly awkward phrasing that appears to say 'the best talent won't care, but women might' which casts them as disjoint groups.
There are many things codified in laws and agreements that people break everyday that go ignored across the spectrum of offenses occurred. If they were sufficient enough in addressing the problems that arise from airbnb and the like, we wouldn't be discussing such today.

What I predict after some elongated period of time to the chagrin of those who have been affected (and who will continue to be) surrounding this specific case(s) with airbnb is that the law will hold airbnb more responsible, yet the problems mentioned here will still remain because the void will be filled by non physical entity (read: software protocol) that cannot appear in court. And then government will still have to exert resources going after the same actors post facto, and people will still be complaining without doing anything about it.
Do You Have Founderitis? Can You Deny These 7 Symptoms?
Sorry, reverting someone's commits out of spite because they rejected you is not sexual harassment "plain and simple." Words have meanings. Furthermore it is not "pointless hair-splitting" to say it is not gender discrimination. You clearly have no understanding of what these terms mean and why it's important to not let this type of drama bleed into the wider discussion about systemic gender discrimination in tech.

http://www.eeoc.gov/laws/types/sexual_harassment.cfm

"Harassment can include “sexual harassment” or unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature. Harassment does not have to be of a sexual nature, however, and can include offensive remarks about a person’s sex. For example, it is illegal to harass a woman by making offensive comments about women in general."

Harassment of someone who happens to be of the opposite gender does not make it sexual harassment. Harassment of someone for rejecting you romantically does not make it sexual harassment. If someone "feels" they would not have been harassed the same way if they were a man does not make it sexual harassment. (This is clearly false in this case, obviously, because the same thing could have happened if it were an advancement by someone of the same gender.)

Reverting someone's commit is not harassment of a "sexual nature" nor does it include commentary on the person's sex or women in general. It has nothing to do with gender or sexual comments, it has to do with an emotional reaction to rejection and an immature pathetic response.
What happens if you list depend as a dependency of the first target?
Fair point and I totally agree. I was responding to your bit about it not being worth the money, which I don't think you generalize to everyone. After all people want to make a bit of money and could have a variety of reasons to want to do so.
Yes, it is. automake will generate makefiles that track dependencies as a side-effect of compilation ( http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#De... ). What this means is that whenever a source file is compiled it will update the dependencies for the .o file. It has to be done then because different platforms could have different header dependencies (if you're having fun with #define).

It's amazing how wrong companies can get marketing. Take Apple's AirDrop, for example. I spent 20 minutes one day wondering why my iPhone wasn't connecting to my Mac Mini. Turns out, "AirDrop" is two different things by the same company that are similar but completely incompatible.
This is probably the best equity compensation plan for pre-IPO companies I've seen so far. Vesting schedules for a fixed quantity of equity have always irked me for the same reason Max explains: they assume a constant value over the life of the vesting, which is almost never the case in a pre-IPO startup.

If I was choosing between multiple offers from startups, the ones using this model would have a huge advantage in my book.

The one (big) issue I can think of is that it does not provide a way to value the common stock. The valuation events in a startup will very often be investors purchasing preferred shares. Preferred shares tend to be worth quite a lot more than common shares (and the gap tends to be larger the younger the company is), so assuming a 1:1 value between them will severely undervalue the common stock grants.
In the case of this book, he's proposing a new "theory" (I'm putting it in quotes because it's weaker than a scientific theory, but stronger than the popular use of the word), with the most comprehensive and far reaching national-level economic dataset that has existed up to this point (as far as I am aware). In that sense, I feel his work is more concrete than most economic research I've read, and it's several orders of magnitude away from the typical economist op-ed with a single chart, and some cherry-picked data. His predictions for the future are pessimistic, and down the line they will certainly be at least partially verifiable. Only partially, because economies are huge and ghastly things, that we apply numbers to, but don't really have a complete handle on. There are almost always enough extraneous or unaccounted for factors for an opposition group to claim an opposing viewpoint. I think part of the value from Piketty's work is that he tries to account for as much of the data that is integral to his theories as possible (moreso than most economists).

Writing this has made me a bit thoughtful, so I'll also take this an an opportunity to go off on a related personal tangent/ramble. Hopefully I don't bore you too much, feel free to ignore.

I have always, always, been frustrated with economics. A field that is so divisive, but represents itself as a "science", has always annoyed the hell out of me. However, my academic and professional track has brought me further into economics over time, rather than away. Right now I have a BS and MS in environmental science, and an MPA in energy policy. I'm nearly certain I want to pursue a PhD in the future, and it looks more and more like it will probably be in energy economics. One way I have calmed down my inner turmoil over this is to more frankly assess my economist and scientist sides.

Basically, the scientist is in love with raw, pure, data generation, while my inner economist is about using that data to generate a picture (or a graph, so many graphs). Another side to this is that my inner economist constantly wants to generate an interesting narrative and draw out the connections between trends, while my inner scientist tears down those hypotheses or works to find the data points which are not influenced by a "narrative".

I've been happy on a lab bench centrifuging, pipetting, and doing PCR in the process of splicing soybean embryos, but I also enjoy sifting through census data and plotting $/kWh trends. Ultimately, I still maintain a distrust of the broad field of economics, but I think the phenomenon we broadly place within it could do with a more thorough explication via more scientific methods.

It would appear to be relevant because she describes herself as an engineer, and because she thought the reverts of her code and bad performance reviews were due to sexism.
another thing to watch out for: downstream packages (the one you have installed) are out-of-date. The current version of Docker is 0.10.0, and ships a ton of improvements. For that reason alone you should consider installing from upstream repos, at least until downstream catches up. Just keep it in a separate file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d to easily remove it later.

Your premise is that telecom companies are utilities and should be regulated as such. I think that premise is deeply flawed. Utility models are appropriate for things where demand and technology changes slowly, like power and water. But telecoms is totally different in that regard. Public utilities are almost universally underfunded. Unless public money is invested, utilities have very little incentive to do more than keep the existing infrastructure from decaying too badly. See: your water and power.

Also, on what planet is wireless less competitive than broadband? Most subscribers have 3-4 credible wireless choices. The reason companies are spending money on wireless is that: 1) its less of a regulatory morass than wireline; and 2) there is insanely high consumer demand.

I can't imagine that this is the first time somebody has put a vegetative patient into an MRI. Does anybody know what makes this time different? Are they using a new imaging technique, or is the patient perhaps in a different (previously undiscovered?) state from other "vegetative" patients?

Edit:

Hitting up wikipedia to refresh on the terminology and delimitation of different states, I found this:

> "In 1983, Rom Houben survived a near-fatal car crash and was diagnosed as being in a vegetative state. Twenty-three years later, using "modern brain imaging techniques and equipment", doctors revised his diagnosis to locked-in syndrome.[26] [... interesting stuff about facilitated communication, and how it is bullshit ...] Houben's case had been thought to call into question the current methods of diagnosing vegetative state and arguments against withholding care from such patients.[26][32][33]"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locked-in_syndrome#Rom_Houben

Seems potentially similar, but from three decades ago.

There are so many comments here that, at least for me, are even more interesting than the article itself. It was especially interesting for me to compare my experiences with the comments of others here. For example when I was at the A1/A2 level of learning Chinese I felt that Chinese is actually quite simple. Much simpler in fact than my mother tounge German. But now that I am trying to get from about B1 to B2 I feel like standing in front of a huge wall of grammar and never-seen-vocabs that I seem to need to know to produce meaning from reading a chinese article. Luckily technology helps a lot already and writing/speaking is not as hard as reading, but still it can be frustrating at times when you feel your skill improved a lot but still you are not able to read a simple blog article better than months ago.
Another example from the financial crisis is the fact that many credit rating agencies gave triple-A ratings to CDOs that were later downgraded to junk status.

It's fine that you don't care about this information. But that in no way means that others hold the same view as you.

There are people and organizations paying significantly more each month than you are, and they're very likely using GitHub in a way that's far more critical to their operations than it may be for you.

For some customers or potential customers, the factual details regarding this case are more important than I think you realize. They need the facts to help decide if they want to keep using GitHub going forward, or if they even want to adopt it in the first place.

Without the facts, they have to sift through rampant speculation, trying to make educated guesses at what's plausible and how it may affect them, their source code, their obligations, and their continued operation as a business.

Part of the "recovery" involves getting factual information out there so that existing and new customers aren't faced with uncertainty. Somebody paying $7 per month might not care, but people and organizations paying $200 or more very well may.

> I suspect that what founders really fear is being misunderstood in their motivations as their companies grow. They fear that employees view them as disconnected and only trying to build empires of gold.

These are the fears of a bad founder. Their job is to set the vision of the company. If the founder fears the employees feel they are disconnected, the founder probably is disconnected. If a founder should fear anything, they should fear not creating a safe environment where the employees can feel comfortable bringing their concerns to superiors — about any aspect of the company — instead of that self-centered fear of being “misunderstood”.
Do Unknown Games Still Have a Chance in the App Store?
You are missing a much bigger piece. Protocols.

I can implement any data structure, and if I define reduce for that data structure I get the entire Enum module for free, all tail call optimized.

It means I can mix and match data structures. I can do crazy things like zip a binary search tree and a lazy data stream together and then call take(5) to get the first 5 elements. And all that is required is reduce to be defined for all data structures. Protocols are a big deal.
PR 101 - When something bad happens you do one of three things:

1. Don't talk about it.

2. Spin it.

3. Burn it. - Let the lesser known news sources get the scoop so the big news sources won't want it.

I think they're trying to go with 2. "This is a good thing... Oculus Rift Technology... leaving for other, more important reasons... etc..."

I would have gone with bullet 1.
Of course, if you doubt Horvath's story, what makes this one any more credible to you?
I think MSBuild does something like this - there is a filetracker that tracks what files were read/written while running a tool, and writes that information in a file. I think you can even install your own file-notification-changes .dll to track changes your way (maybe file system that is not supported, or something else).

Similar to what lsof, procmon (windows) do.
Ah, ok, I agree there's a big difference between an ultra-early-stage startup and a company the size of Github. But the latter criterion is what seems relevant to me for this thread, since it's about what happened at Github.
I'm not a lawyer; this is not legal advice.

I like the fundamental idea. However:

1) This risks pricing the common, which is bad. It certainly isn't the same as preferred, due to superior rights (liquidation preference most seriously)

2) In general, you should discount equity vs. cash because equity, even granted today, is illiquid. Even if you claim you're willing to buy it back at any given time for the then-current market price, you're better off motivating employees by giving them equity than cash, all things being equal -- the employee can improve the value of the equity through work, but can only in the most absurdly indirect way increase the value of cash itself (by tearing up other cash...)

In practice, I love what Palantir does (or did; I know about this from Ari Geller on Quora, not directly). You basically get 3 discrete offers e.g. -- $130k/500 shares, $100k/1k shares, $85k/3k shares. It's essentially a way to reveal your preference and beliefs about the company (although, Palantir is now so big that an individual's contributions don't materially move the price.) (I'd personally be WTF at someone who picked the $100k/1k; either extreme would be defensible, but I'd generally prefer to hire the 85k/3k person, unless I knew he had high cash expenses like kids in school).
