Micro-USB was intended to entirely replace Mini-USB. While some devices do still use Mini-USB, it's basically deprecated at this point. (You'll note, for instance, that there's no Mini-USB3.)
The Kelly criterion is actually pretty simple. So it can actually be derived from a few different optimization criteria.

Risk aversion is just something we see in practice. (And sometimes risk loving; like when people play the lottery and even take a negative expected value in exchange for a very small probability of a huge win.)

There is a little bit of information at[1]:
Average prices per pop depend on object complexity. However, Jones estimates the range to be anywhere between $15 for simple jobs to $500 for complicated prototypes to $1300 for complex jobs for large corporations. Services from the inhouse designer, who charges $75 per hour, are not included in these costs.
...Although obviously that is a huge range. I too would like to see an example workflow.

> There are many others you can use.

I understand your good motivations but just saying "it will be ok" doesn't make the problem go away. Yes I can write my own init system, that's good. Can I uninstall systemd from most system that install and depend on it by default. Write my own distro? You can't just easily plug and play it.

It is a big like the kernel. Just swapping out Linux kernel with a FreeBSD one doesn't quite work.

> system not baseless accusations that they are making a power grab.

With that I agree. Maybe to get the conversation back on track is to present a few valid technical points in response. Or just ignore it. Saying "hold up people, no fighting please" doesn't work as well in such forums.

What makes this amazing is that Linus Torvalds probably wouldn't be able to pick a random piece of code in the Linux kernel and do this.

The fact that it's quite featureful for an OS of ~100kLOC - including an assembler and compiler for a language with some OOP - makes this even more interesting. "The shell is a compiler/interpreter" concept somewhat reminds me of Lisp machines too.

Wow, all this time, all these people that have been suffering, they could have been cured with some positivity. We should probably start telling everyone and put a stop to all that "self-pittying garbage". If only they knew this crazy secret, maybe we wouldn't have lost so many amazing people to suicide.

Yes, "shitty perspective" doesn't help the way people treat you, but that's exactly why depression is so dangerous. It's this inward spiral of worsening and worsening conditions and no matter how "positive" you try to stay, there's no chance of swimming against that current. I mean, did we learn nothing from Robin Williams. Dude was nothing but positive on the outside, while inside he was obviously suffering horribly.

How about instead of blaming Jonathan (or anyone else suffering from depression), you acknowledge the real danger that depression presents. Shit, that's half the problem right there. There's such a large stigma surrounding depression that people are afraid to even try to open up never mind getting treatment. Your comment only proves those inner fears are true, which ironically makes it that much worse.

Lastly, just because someone co-signs your depression, doesn't mean they're feeding in to it or even that they're opinion will even have any affect on it worsening or improving. You know what does make it worse though, ignorant comments on the internet telling you it's all in your head and there's this "one simple hack" to eradicating it.

From "New Jersey's Further Reply," this part caught my eye:

I'm not an expert on creating reliable electronics, but the new iOS connector is just a "tongue", whereas this new type-c connector is a "hole" that accepts a "tongue", and the plug the type-c connector fits in is a "tongue" that accepts a "hole" that contains a "tongue" (sorry for the simplistic terminology)

Surely, this is going lead to a whole new generation of loose, flaky cable connections, just as with the previous USB connectors (and unlike the new iOS connectors, which never seem to lead to loose connections)
I think its probably a combination of your average GPA from a school nobody's heard about and the fact that you only seem to be applying to companies that have a reputation for extremely high standards.

You seem to be looking at normal companies the exact same way the elite companies are viewing an average student from an average school. Perhaps you should branch out? There are tons of great companies out there with internship programs.

And as others have mentioned, I'd try to sell the entrepreneurship experience and any side-projects you may have completed harder than anything else.

Keep trying. Keep submitting as many applications as you can to different companies right up until the day you accept an internship.
I think even IE11 supports it.
Under the section "The Internet Theory", there is a graph labelled "Sexual Activity of High School Students". The graph shows the percentage teens who have ever been or are currently sexual active and it has stayed near constant (at around 40% and 50% resp., presumably there is some overlap).

Whatever theory is proposed, it needs to take into account minimal contraceptive usage and near constant teen sexual activity.
Modularity and isolation is at the core of reliability. I think it is worthy discussion if a tradeoff beteween 30 sec and 15 sec boot time is worth that sometimes your boot process might lock up.

I think there was already at least one visible problem with systemd stepping on kernel developer's toes (so to speak) by re-using one of the debug flags.

Heck kernel is monolithic. But thinkign about it, I trust kernel developers a bit more than systemd guys. Maybe it is just a new project and it will stabilize at some point in the future. Now they are kind of shooting from the hip (adding ntp, udev, network socket pools, logging, ... ). That tells me "hello lockups and freezes" and being back in the mid 90s on Windows restarting every day.
I use motion at home.

Interestingly, the CPU usage went from 0 to ~30% when I added the first camera, but there was no noticeable increase in CPU usage adding the other 2 cameras.

I use it to record any detected motion, works a charm. It even has a feature to dynamically ignore parts of the screen. Say part of your camera's field of view catches a plant that blows in the breeze, the system will learn to ignore that area of the screen.
As your comment shows, the topic might indeed be relevant to HN, given the libertarian bent of some in today's startup scene. The submission was no doubt intended to stir up debate about libertarianism. There are some who are made uncomfortable by what they see as inroads being made by libertarians and their ideology, so some push-back is taking place.

Seems that they are taking for granted that teenagers today are as fertile as they were 30 years ago. Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have. Maybe somebody should rule out the introduction of a new drug or chemical that may sterilize girls while still in the womb. Maybe in 10 years everybody will be turning up at fertility clinics in droves wondering what's wrong.
It was worse 3-4 years ago, pretty much every device today uses micro USB B connectors. There used to be mini-USB A & B, for a total of 3 small size connectors, plus the full size A & B. I'm not sure what definition of 'universal' yields 5 physically incompatible connectors, but I'll take 1 to rule them all any day.
I generally refer to the two ends as male and female respectively.
Given that it exposed a bug in a driver Larry wrote, years before the OS was released, likely only Larry knows what the bug was.

thank you for this. powerful message.
Edit: In fact, you can use motion to record images of the motion that it detects. You can then plug those images into OpenCV for facial recognition. Both Motion and OpenCV are very powerful pieces of software and they can compliment each other nicely.

It's pretty disengenious to generalize libertarians as having a low group instinct. Either that, or you are incredibly niave. Many successful entrepreneurs who have built incredible companies have a libertarian bent because of the corruption and coercion they have faced from those who seek to take rather than create.

Libertarian simply means one values the principles of liberty and free will. The only people I have ever met who bash libertarians are liberals who cannot see beyond the narrow world view that has been fed to them by a system hell bent on controlling and exploiting them for its own benefit.

I wonder what type of machine they are putting in each store. Staples was doing a trial of this last year in belgium, and had mentioned they were going to be doing this more widespread this year. I think there was a ton of overhyped news going on in 2013 about 3d printing, and we all (myself included) thought that market would catch on much faster than it actually did.
The Passing of the Indians Behind Glass
Why didn't they just copy Apple's Lightning design?
I'd wager that there's 138k lines of code for which Linus could drop into the code and figure out what's going on in a couple of minutes, in the same way as this; at least he could in the past. I've watched realtime conversations on IRC and in other realtime environments where he exhibits exactly this kind of comprehension of huge swaths of Linux. Linux just happens to be vastly larger than this now.

Not to dismiss this guy's impressive grasp of his chosen language and the things he's built in it; watching him using so many tools that seem to be of his own devising is impressive as hell. Downright intimidating, in fact. My lifetime software output becomes practically zero in comparison.
Seriously, when I'm reading about zoning problems I'm thinking "this isn't anarcho-capitalistic at all". It sounds like the guy just ripped off a bunch of probably fanatics with Chliean land he could not treat in way necessary to build a "libertarian paradise" in the first place.
Doesn't seem so.

Looking at the pictures, the design seems to consist of a receptable which looks like a Lightning connector with a piece of shielding around it, and a plug which looks like a Lightning receptable. If anything, it's mechanically close to Lightning than to the current USB connector, so there's no reason to assume that it will have bad connection.
The problem with the journal format is that Poettering used a completely new format for doing so, instead of one of the many existing formats out there that have an excellent design for such things. He could have used something like berkeley db, or sqlite, which have been used extensively to store machine-readable data, are fault-tolerant, and small memory footprints, and would have let developers and administrators use the many pre-existing tools that exist for both database types for log analysis.

However, my philosophical problem is that there's no escape from it. I'd be perfectly happy with it existing if there was a way to turn it off, and let me use my own syslogd program in peace. Instead, I have yet another binary on my system that's running, with all of the problems that can bring, wasting cycles while I hand off log data for actual processing.
Very cool. Just small thing, add a New File button. Also, would be nice if we can have checkpoints which we can rollback on later.

Genuinely think you would generate much more interest(and less confusion/knee-jerk anger) if you had the option of having the code printed on the shirt overlaying the blocks.

If you've been doing digital marketing for 8 years and are pretty damn good at it, I'm surprised that you're having trouble paying for a coder. Digital marketing is typically closer to sales and revenues. The effect your work has has (and thus your compensation) can be orders of magnitude higher than programmers.
That's one hell of a one-liner.

I do like how some of the larger investors still want to give the plan a shot. Albeit their methods, I think, betray the ideology - so Johnson has proven himself amoral to the philosophy and thus nobody should do business with him again, and in the anarcho vision they would collectively boycott and draft contracts with anyone they associate with to also boycott him, but really they would have to go find new land since they are acknowledging his possession of the plot.

I'm more interested in the politics in trying to approach nations to effectively take a chunk of land out of its jurisdiction. I doubt any state around today is really privy to the idea, and in this context I doubt Chile agreed to anything close to giving this town independence.
It is, after all, the mind of god, which would be interesting to understand.

>The paranoia around opiates has to end. Lack of access to pain medication is a huge problem globally.

I agree 100%.

I passed kidney stones without any pain medication because the "care workers" thought I was a junkie looking for a fix... Even though I had been into their ER a few weeks earlier and was white as a sheet due to incredible pain.

You can't even fake that type of pain afaik.
I used to be able to tell when there was CG in pretty much any movie but at some point it turned out that there were a lot more cases of CG in movies that I just didn't notice. I'm willing to bet that there are movies where you won't be able to tell if something is CG or not.

Libertarians are using the word violence correctly.

If a person rapes, murders, beats, stabs, uses force or otherwise is violent against another person, then libertarians would call that "violence".

Statists seem to believe that all of the above is not "violence" when done by a government or an agent of the government.

It seems that by definition the Statists are watering down the word violence.

Why is it wrong to molest a child... unless you're in an Airport and wearing a TSA uniform?

Because government is somehow magical, right?

What really is ridiculous is the supposed agreement to limit bulbs to 1000 hours. Seems like GE and Sylvania weren't in on it, because before congress basically outlawed the common incandescent, I was buying long-life bulbs by those companies that were rated to last 20,000 hours. The only reason people's experience of light bulbs was that they only lasted 500-1000 hours was because they kept buying the 49-cent a bulb Wal-Mart crap.
that would be post-CS degree right?
I guess it depends on where exactly they stand in the grand spectrum of libertarian-anarchism. I agree with you that it's unlikely that Chile was planning on giving this area any kind of special jurisdiction, and the impression I got from the article was that they weren't really expecting any -- they were just planning on being isolated enough that they ordinarily only had to deal with other people who were similarly politically inclined.

Plenty of libertarian types are fine with enough of a state that you can sue someone for breach of contract. I don't know whether these guys were. Maybe some are and some aren't. Just because they like Rand enough to name the place Galt's Gulch doesn't mean any or all of them were actually expecting hard-core anarchy.
Routing in PCBs isn't as big of a deal as it used to be. In fact, at this point, we're routing tabs and such wherever its appropriate to avoid the need to to lay out multi-job panels to allow for v-scoring. Mid-mount USB connectors have been getting a lot more popular lately for smaller packages.
