Well, thats like, your opinion, man.

You ask a non-civilized person to survive in New York for a month, then lets talk again.

You are most hours of your life spending on acquiring food, drink and shelter. Its called work for a reason.

Hunters-gatherer societies spent much less time, hunting to aquire food. An activity that you cant even do today if you dont toil for a few months to save for that activity.

EDIT: btw, downvoting me for having a different opinion? thats nice.

You should always prepend variables, IDs, and classes with something unique to the project or page you're working on, it's just good practice. I've even used my initials on occasion.

I normally do a short acronym for my project followed by an underscore for these types of things.

Look at Google's search form, many of their IDs and classes are prepended with "gs_" and others are named something sufficiently unique so that they won't be accidentally repeated or overwritten.

Also, reserved words:

For Java programmers who use Silver Searcher or ack, this lets you search all jars in a directory tree for a given string. Requires GNU Parallel:

function ffjar() {
jars=(./**/*.jar)
print "Searching ${#jars[*]} jars for '${*}'..."
parallel --no-notice --tag unzip -l ::: ${jars} | ag ${*} | awk '{print $1, ":", $5}'
}

Because it uses parallel it spreads the workload across CPUs. I use this frequently when I have to update/rewrite/create build scripts, and I know a class exists but not which jar file it lives in.
What I Would Have Done Differently – Hackbright Academy
One main problem with any attempt by a site to slow down its service is that all similar/competitor sites must slow down equally. Otherwise we get the game of one site provider not slowing down (or slowing down as much) because of the incentive: if they are faster, they generate more visits than competitors.

Interesting factoid I learned yesterday at an IKEA in Toronto from an employee. The cost of returns/exchanges in their North American markets is 6X the international average because North American customers expect to return/exchange regardless of the rules or restrictions IKEA puts in place.

Would users actually notice?

And, really, users who have bought based on price per Mb download speed without any other metric are partly to blame for this. If users had been honestly buying based on bandwidth used we would not have ISPs offering "unlimited (until you hit the limits)" internet connectivity. (This is not to excuse the ISPs for their sleazy misleading advertising).

Give people a price per GB and then tell them how many GB they download each month. Price that GB sensibly and route traffic fairly.

Yes, the goal is not to replace C++ classes. But I believe that there is cases when passing an object without having to declare a class can save time without impacting the readability of the code.

The other big advantage of this construct it that it provides introspection on objects at compile time, thus allowing to generate super fast serializers and deserializers without having to annotate the class.

Big data summary about our Earth.
Immigration may be complex, but the essentials of the current situation are: 1) We are taking in over a million people a year. 2) There is very little job growth. 3) Projected population growth is ecologically unsustainable. 4) The vast majority of these immigrants present at best a break-even economic proposition for those already here. They tend to be net tax drains, in fact. 5) The native population overwhelmingly favors much reduced immigration, but powerful interests press for more.

The only way this disastrous situation will get fixed is with a year zero restart. The current set of interest groups are too entrenched for meaningful policy change. We need a period of zero immigration for five or ten years, after which other policies might be worth considering.

I think the way Go treats coding styles is great. I don't have any problems following a one true convention enforced by the language and being aware about the minute details of code structuring in order to avoid problems in translation. Funnily, the language that taught me all that was Python.

As willvarfar points out, I feel Rob Pike is being disingenous when he talks about this. Golang uses less significant whitespace than Python, but it exists, the difference is in degree. If he prefers to minimize the impact of whitespace in Go code, that's fine. But why does he have to talk about it as an error or misjudgment?

If significant whitespace is such a bad idea, why do exist keywords that require whitespace around them in Go (package, func, type, etc.? Why can't I use whitespace in names in Go? This didn't happen in good old FORTRAN ;)
To counter your opinion:

Most of the Ikea furniture we owned lost form in a few years:
Think sliding sections that stuck, aluminium tubes that deformed after some use.

I'm not sure about price but the experience was subpar. Won't buy something expensive from them, like a sofa.

We still enjoy Ikea as a source of smaller kitchenware and the like. And food is nice as well.

And most of the furniture in my room were custom-built. It's not that expensive even, and allowed us to make a very smart and integrated use of the space we've got.
Build times aren't great tho.
Possibly this is due to the larger screens being primarily Android, which had/has worse power management than iOS. I'm out of the loop on the current state of the relative power management between the two, so this may have changed in the last year or so.

But anecdotally, my friends who carry Android phones keep their chargers nearby in their purses/briefcases.
Unfortunately, it's fairly difficult to make any concrete conclusions from flight time, especially at a time resolution of one minute. The jet stream and other weather processes affect flight time by more than a minute. This also holds for mechanical reasons as well, since airplanes that have squawked 7700 will almost certainly be given landing priority, leaving other airplanes in the air for longer while they wait their turn.
Totally agree, we've had to deal with such crappy expensive furniture for too long! Saludos.

The stores are franchises, so it makes sense that they won't ship it from store to store. I can even sort of see why they might not want to ship a single item to a store; given that they might want to batch these things up and skip the middle step of a distribution center.

I think they should probably at least try to figure out site-to-store or equivalent if they want to expand their online presence (maybe there isn't enough profit in it if they have to put up with distribution inefficiencies).
What is a good(best) way to deploy n (dedicated)servers that consist of:

3.some enviroment-variables? for database connections and stuff

4.some kind of log management

5.server monitoring(disk,cpu,ram,network)

And a way to update the python program and the variables in all servers. Is that for saltstack / fabric ansible?

I asked you because this is just a part of Paas.

[disclaimer: still learning Rust]

I believe it actually means that y can be made to reference something other than x.

let x = 5
let mut y = &x
let i = 13
y = &i

This is similar to C++'s const-pointers and pointers-to-consts, where either a pointer cannot be made to point at something different or the pointer cannot be used to change what it points at.
In order for it to be meaningful that something is "bad", it has to have had intentions of being "good".

Anyone can intentionally make a bad movie that's worse than a stinker like Battlefield Earth. That's nothing worth recognizing because the difference between the actual quality and the intended quality, the ΔQ, is so tiny.

"The worst movie ever" designation should go to the film that has the highest ΔQ.

While this is true, I would argue that there is a social expectation that an IMDB review is written by someone who has seen the movie. Especially, it is expected to be true on average with the usual "few bad apples" thrown in the mix. In this case, this expectation does not hold, and in this sense these reviews are truly anomalous (they are produced by a different process than the other ones). From the perspective of the expected usage of the reviews this anomaly is indeed possible to see as an error, rather than just slightly different behavior.
Professor revolutionises computers with the most random function ever
While true, the ratings can be useful if there is some form of understanding as to what people are rating the movie for. Most ratings cover the simplistic "I saw the movie and this is how I feel about it" kind of data. In that case, the ratings can be useful.

But if a group with an agenda comes in and rates the movie on a different set of criteria without letting the typical reader know renders the data useless.
I agree. I did the best I can by using the median over all flights from the past 12 months.

But yes, there are a lot of irregular operations which can throw any conclusions to the wind. That said, when I was exploring this data I found that delays etc were much less frequent that I perceived.
A fine example of the naiveté of VC's who vicariously play business through unprofitable companies. Someone who's spent too much time in a play pen with children, dollars and matches. Are you mad? Brad?

At the most basic level, I have a checkout on my website where I take actual cash from my customers and unless it's thousands of dollars every day, I'm going to have to close my doors. Yup, that's right. I have expenses that I need to pay: Staff, hosting costs, insurance, office rent. And if that money doesn't keep on coming every day at the rate I projected, I get to fire my staff.

So, Brad. You idiot. You really think I'm going to slow down my website to play your flaccid little game of online pretend activism and put my staff and business at risk to do it?

A Game to Map the Brain
Why stop at the slow lane? There is nothing preventing ISP gatekeepers from wholeheartedly denying access.

Slowness is just the beginning -- the end-goal is making the internet into multiple competing walled gardens where users are treated as silos that require permission to access. The global reach of the internet is at risk here.

Imagine if Netflix wasn't accessible to Comcast users from the beginning because they wouldn't pay the toll. Would it have thrived and grown as quickly as it did, or would it have died in it's infancy?

What about Skype? Skype stepped on the toes of incumbent ISPs' long-distance revenue streams, I wouldn't put it past AT&T to purposefully degrade the quality of Skype calls or even outright deny them from happening. Prior to being bought out by Microsoft, would they have had the revenue to pay for access to users? Would Microsoft have even bought Skype at all?
I remember going to this IKEA as a kid in the late '70s. It wasn't really fancy like the stores are now, but they did have a ball room which was essentially a cage in the middle of the warehouse filled with balls and no supervision. My sister and I loved it.

>No. He said there were no plans for generics, which has been the story for some time.

No, the official apologist story is: we will add them as soon as we find a way to avoid all tradeoffs of the 3 different approaches to generics.

And when asked how are they going to find this "magic bullet" solution since noone seems to be looking for it, some Go devs wrote HN comments to say that "we are looking into them [generics]".

I'm a little offended, because nobody admitted what Rob said at the conference -- and they even tried to convince us of the contrary. That was like 2-3 months ago.

Review of PHP Static Analysis Tools
While being detail-oriented, analytical and trained in systematic problem solving might help in some cases, the bigger benefit is the training/experience in changing levels of abstraction. At the CEO level, you need to be able to quickly and easily change the level of abstraction that you're thinking about. Sometimes you need to be able to think about long-term industry trends, and other times you need to be able to zoom down to a very specific issue and you need to be comfortable with the nuance that issue involves.
There is a nice (and often posted) mailing list post explaining some of the reasons GNU Grep is so fast:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2010-Augu...

He mentions: "So even nowadays, using --mmap can be worth a >20% speedup."
:) I certainly won't dispute that you may have been right, but I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt here.

As an aside, if you were right:
Unpalatable as the sentiment may be, there is still something to the notion that the USA does have a lot of influence over major parts of the world.
I think we can all generally agree that as a nation they do have an unusual degree of possibilities to set examples and fashions, and I like it much better when the administration feels like championing human rights or restrictions on certain kinds of particularly nasty weapons than when it's bent on exporting new justifications for steps towards totalitarianism or more cost-effective ways to slaughter people.

So if people in general indeed seem to think that the USA has both possibility and some kind of obligation to do things like try to curtail a rise in drone warfare, I actually feel kind of pleased at that. To the extent that it's real, I think it's welcome, and to the extent that it's conceit, maybe it's at least a constructive one.
