Eh, I think at this point the provenance and significance of the zero date is less important than just having a zero, any zero, that everyone can agree upon and that matches up with the standard used more-or-less globally for the last century at least. I don't think there's anything dishonest about CE using the same reference point as AD; it's just the most convenient one.
Yes, the tutorial came out before the image. This official image uses the Dockerfile in the tutorial. (well, almost)

Yep, aware. For the sake of consistency with the "how to run docker on azure" tutorial we linked from this tutorial, we sustained the --tls parameter. I'm not big fan of TLS at all :) For me even basic auth does the job: https://ahmetalpbalkan.com/blog/docker-http-basic-auth/ :)
Have you thought about a Vagrant + Docker tutorial next? I got a few different Docker images running vNext on my Mac; it's great, but not really a development-first solution.
Books record ideas, but the medium itself is usually bottom of the barrel commodity trash. Where does that paper come from? Who printed it and how is that business run?

Are those companies worth saving despite a changing medium? That's the real question.
Yup, honestly other samples besides David's HelloWorldVnext require a fix to the image (related to libuv), which means they're not working at all right now with Kestrel. But community was fast enough to send the fix:

Once that's in we will see if those "confirmed to be working on Linux" samples work within Docker as well and we'll take fixes as needed.

A possible solution would be to devise a language with a type system that tracks allocation, such that a garbage collector is not needed, and that all allocation deterministic, and yet safe. Some work has been done on this already, in the form of region inference systems, although they have to my knowledge only been used to compile functional languages to run without a garbage collector, and not been exposed in the user-visible type system. The MLkit compiler for Standard ML is the most prominent region-user I am aware of.
While I am inclined to agree with you (government overreach? almost sounds like some form of censorship, as a law), I think it's fallacious to believe that new books have some intrinsic good. In fact, new books probably don't, if we take into account the vast number of them being written every year. And I do think that if someone has written something great, a discount is unlikely going to do it any real damage. The point is that good books will be good, and their newness has little to do with it. Conversely, classics are classics for a reason.

That probably leaves the question about books that become "accidental hits" or "sleeper hits". But even then, this discounts aren't going to completely wipe them out and I would believe that these sorts are the exception rather than the norm. Again, there are simply so many new books published all the time, and very little of it can possibly be good.

Gwern has some good thoughts that I feel are relevant:

Isn't that what the APL/J/K people keeps saying? I guess sometimes it makes sense to optimize for hunting deer rather than optimizing for special forces ops (Even if spec. ops. probably are fierce deer hunters...).
Its not the writing that's an issue. It's the publishing.
Taking someone's writing and turning that into a book requires work and funding.

When price controls and discount bans are enforced on book publishers and book stores, publishers are much less willing to take risks on unknown authors.

Sure, a new JK Rowling or Danielle Steele book will always find someone willing to publish them, but would a young aspiring author be able too?

The good news is that publishing costs and risks have dropped thanks to e-books and crowd sourcing for books. But most books still need a publisher willing to take a financial risk in order to see the light of day.
Min-max ranges are useful for keeping desired range visible even when the data shows very little change (like a 0-100 min-max scale that shows the full range even when all of the data happened to fall within 93-99 for example).
The article quotes Prof. Troian as saying, "JPL acted honorably throughout. They did the right thing and filed the right report. That part of the system worked well. ... My complaint is strictly with Caltech."

There's tension between the openness that a research university (Caltech) needs, and the secure handling of information that a lab doing some classified research (JPL) requires.

This tension exploded in 1952, when Caltech took government money for PROJECT VISTA. After that, Caltech decided that having faculty working on things they couldn't talk about was antithetical to the purpose of a research university [1]. Today, Caltech says [2]:

"The Caltech Way: Caltech policy does not allow the acceptance of grants or contracts supporting the conduct of classified research or other classified projects on campus. Exceptions to this restriction may be considered by the President of Caltech in times of national emergency or critical need upon an urgent request of the government." ("Standards of Conduct for Research on Campus," Chapter 1, Section 1.1).

At JPL, there has always been some classified research. In the 1980s, JPL almost become a weapons lab (it did not) [3].

Even if Dr. Gat's electrospray work wasn't classified, one can imagine how different attitudes to classified research feed over to different attitudes to ITAR violations.

I'm a former Caltech postdoc and a research associate at JPL. I know neither Gat nor Troian.

Why you should build an Immutable Infrastructure – via codeship
I'm sorry for my coworkers and whoever else around me - I will now shout "NEW FEATURE" constantly.
I don't think you've quite understood the purpose of EBITDA. They aren't removing stuff they don't like, but rather factors that shouldn't be considered in valuing an equity share. Take the interest component - depending on the funding structure that will give you wildly different valuation numbers if you leave it in.

Its simply not intended for use as a "type" of profit number in its raw form...its an input for a valuation technique. The valuation technique factors in things like you loaning money for dividends as a further input (if you're doing it right anyway)

As for the GAAP issue - thankfully I operate on IFRS turf which seems to have less scary stuff than US GAAP from what I can tell.
I think there is a business case, even for FPS. FPS are typically played online, so you are already dealing with lag. And a worst case of lag is already going to get you killed, whether the game is streamed or not.

Besides the light is not so slow. I ping Google in ~12ms (from Osaka). Even for a FPS that's good enough for most people, especially if the alternative is forking a non trivial amount of money. I mean most people play FPS with gamepads, so it's not like the threshold in terms of quality is particularly high to begin with.

How many gamers within reach of a datacenter in Seoul? in Paris? in Berlin? in San Francisco? in New-York City? Sure it won't work for you, but that certainly doesn't mean there is no business case.
What kind of data did the lander gather, and will it be open to the public?
I've used the official instructions here: https://docs.services.mozilla.com/howtos/run-sync-1.5.html
I've not used the ports DB for this, I've simply cloned the source on /var/www and went from there.
The allegation that Dr. Gat was a spy seems to be sensationalism on the part of the Pasadena Star. One doesn't need to be a spy to violate ITAR.

The most substantial allegations against Dr. Gat are that he shared data with his adviser. It's quite easy to imagine a young researcher viewing ITAR as a dumb American law which inhibits collaboration, and deciding to continue sharing preprints and collaborating with colleagues abroad as though he were still in Israel. And why not? He doesn't seem to have been working on a project with obvious military potential, and is from an allied country. ITAR prosecutions against professors are extremely rare.
Never heard of phantom power being supplied by batteries. Is this common?
The folks at freetype.org have gotten "advance measure" (also known as
simply "advance") correct -- It depends on the horizontal or vertical
layout orientation. Unfortunately, it seems the mozilla folks may have
implemented the CSS3 'ch' unit incorrectly:

http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-values/#ch-unit

ch unit
Equal to the used advance measure of the "0" (ZERO, U+0030)
glyph found in the font used to render it.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/length

ch
This unit represents the width, or more precisely the advance
measure, of the glyph '0' (zero, the Unicode character U+0030)
in the element's font.

If you change the layout orientation of text from horizontal to
vertical, the "advance measure" will change. If the "advance measure"
remains constant between the two, then vertically orientation would
result in characters (glyphs) overwriting each other.

The above is just the mozilla docs so I really need to check the mozilla
source code to make sure.
And even JK Rowling had to go through 12 publishers before she got a deal.
I've read Feeling Good, and found many of its basic premises to be flawed. Conscious thoughts aren't, as Burns claims, always a leading cause of bad feelings. Biological, hereditary, and environmental factors can have a large effect on mood. Burns believes negative thinking patterns are 'distorted', and we can ameliorate depression by 'correcting' them. Several studies have shown that the depressed people are actually more, not less, likely to appraise situations accurately. http://nuweb9.neu.edu/personalitylab/wp-content/uploads/Tayl...

Out of curiosity, who did you find that was able to help you?
C++14 can be a nice functional programming language, coupling algorithms, lambdas, automatic memory management and secure data structures like std::vector and std::string instead of bare bones C like data types.

It is even possible to do pattern matching,

http://www.stroustrup.com/OpenPatternMatching.pdf

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkDS6hmU-w8&list=PLoswmertKw...

So it can be a nice language when we have control over the codebase.

However, the biggest problem is being able to do so in the industry at large. I am willing to bet that most C++ code in the wild is done in a pre-C++98 style, with developers unaware of what came afterwards.

Specially bad in those companies where getting any software upgraded is a pain of bureaucracy.

ping 200ms to google is horrible and more like a dial up modem, with a good connection a <20ms ping is reasonable and if you take into account that 30fps equals about 33ms per frame, game streaming is entirely possible and has been proven to work. Just the economics are questionable at this point.

Rust is trying to reduce the amount of magic in the libraries as much as possible. This means that whatever the language/standard library authors have available to them, third party library authors should also have access to. `T?` would probably run against that, given the previous removal of `@T`, `~T`, `~T`, and `~str` in favor of `Gc<T>`, `Box<T>`, `Vec<T>`, and `String`.
It's less than smaller boats but still noticeable. I have to say I have a ton of respect for the guys who fish in those little boats. The reason I love the show Deadliest Catch is I did a cruise up around the Aleutians. (PACEX '89) I remember how crazy it was up there on a carrier, in the fall. I can't imagine doing it in the winter on one of those little fishing boats.

One of my jobs for a little while was on the flight deck, manning the push pull bar. The job is not rocket science. When an aircraft is recovered, it pulls out quite a bit of cable onto the flight deck. Once the aircraft is unhooked from the cable there is a period of time where, due to rolling, the cable can slide towards the starboard side of the ship and out of the landing area. This could potentially cause damage to equipment or people, once it retracts. So I stood there with a long metal rod that had a metal block at the bottom. My job was to push the cable back so that it did not come over the foul line. My training consisted of being told, "If you look that way (he pointed off the port side) and you see a lot of water, push. If you see a lot of sky, you don't have to push."

The Ponce is an LPD and considerably smaller than a CVN. My guess would be that the aiming is completely automated.

I did reserves after active duty. I spent a couple weeks on a frigate once. They did some practice with the gun the boat had. They put out a target and first did things manually. They couldn't come close to hit that target. Then they switched over to the computer and it never missed.

Crowdsourcing 2.0: Why Putting the Slum on a Map Is Not Enough

It's only half of the strategy. ZIRP is the other half. Not only is inflation being under-reported, the savings that "the old people" have can't keep up with inflation because the Fed is artificially holding interest rates at zero.
Rump kernels are something quite different from containers or jails. They provide just enough of the kernel interface to a kernel device or filesystem driver to allow that driver to be linked in with other code to form a user-space process. If this sounds a lot like FUSE to you, you're onto something: NetBSD's user-space filesystem layer, puffs, is based on rump architecture, and there are at least two FUSE API wrappers for puffs.

Where it gets interesting is when application code is linked together with all the rump kernel code the application needs, forming a unikernel. See Antti Kantee, "An Internet-Ready OS From Scratch in a Week", http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/an_internet_ready_os_from
I haven't figured out your conclusion. I think you are giving credit to Caltech for supporting Dr. Gat's "openness" with Israel? Does that excuse Dr. Gat hacking into Dr. Troian's computer, or the Caltech administration's apparently dishonest and sinister behavior towards Dr. Troian?

Languages like Haskell, Swift, and Rust use an optional type[0] for nullable things. Most things don't need to be nullable, and by being explicit about it in your type you convey your intent - ie. 'this thing might fail, and you must handle it if it does'.

So these lines are now equivalent:

public override string ToString() { return String.Format("({0}, {1})", X, Y); }
public override string ToString() => "(\{X}, \{Y})"

Could it go even further? This isn't paper after all, on screen why shouldn't it look like;

public override string ToString() => "(X, Y)"

where the X and Y are either slight italics or underlined or colored to indicate they mean X and Y the variable not X and Y the letters. The IDE would let you just toggle the state between 'variable' and 'literal' with the keyboard.

We also get better array initializers:

public JObject ToJson() {
var r = new JObject();
r["x"] = X;
r["y"] = Y;
return r;
}

becomes:

public JObject ToJson() => return new JObject() { ["x"] = X, ["y"] = Y };

That's cool! Next comes the null-conditional operators:

public static Point FromJson(JObject json)
{
if (json != null &&
json["x"] != null &&
json["x"].Type == JTokenType.Integer &&
json["y"] != null &&
json["y"].Type == JTokenType.Integer)
{
return new Point((int)json["x"], (int)json["y"]);
}
return null;
}

Becomes...

public static Point FromJson(JObject json)
{
if (json?["x"]?.Type == JTokenType.Integer &&
json?["y"]?.Type == JTokenType.Integer)
{
return new Point((int)json["x"], (int)json["y"]);
}
return null;
}

The check against JTokenType.Integer is just to avoid a casting exception. The null checks are just to avoid null exceptions. I wonder if the compiler could ever handle something like 'this if you can, else null', without actually having any exceptions getting throw and caught underneath:

public static Point FromJson(JObject json) =>
return new Point((int)json["x"], (int)json["y"]) ?: null;
If someone pays for a book, that person wanted the book.

That is the only kind of "good" there is.

You are correct that new books are not intrinsically good because there is no such thing as intrinsic good, ever.

That view is based on invalid philosophical theories.

Codernity REST – Lightweight Python REST API Framework
You name a problem. Many years ago, I used to teach physics and with it also error treatment and some basic statistics to medical students. My overall impression was, they never got it, nor did the majority even understand its importance, when results are interpreted. Most medical student appeared to be exceptionally smart, even smarter as physics students. But somehow statistics never appealed to them.

I used to get free badges and t-shirts back in the late 80s for submitting POKEs for games, giving you unlimited lives, etc.

I did a lot of that kind of hacking on the Spectrum machines back in the day, cracking the loader/protection, decompiling the games, and working out the fewest bytes that needed to be changed to keep the lives/energy/bullets/etc.

Beyond that I shared a lot of freeware tools in the DOS days around 1992. Simple utilities to undelete files, and that kind of thing.

From there I think my first fulltime job, working at a compiler company was around 1998.

Happy times :)
The main differences are perhaps practical not conceptual. Drawbridge and Bascule are closed source. Grapheme attempts to implement a Linux compatible OS, from scratch, which is a huge task. Rump uses unmodified NetBSD code (kernel and libraries), so it is exactly compatible and updated continually as it is upstream in NetBSD.

Also rump is BSD licensed, Grapheme is GPL, which is useful as you have to link it to your application.
Fast coders know their languages, frameworks and tools like the back of their hand. They eat docs for breakfast, have a knack for memorizing it, and an even stronger knack for making sense of it.

There's no shortcut: read the docs from the front to cover.

Not necessarily every single last page of it. But do make sure that you know and understand what is available and what is possible; well enough that googling typically occurs when you have a reasonable idea of what you're going to find already but don't have the specifics off the top of your head.

3rd-party libraries are a slightly different story, of course: you can't reasonably be familiar with every single one of them. What you can and should know, though, is what your languages, frameworks and tools are capable of and adequate for. This allows to be able to quickly locate any third-party library you might need, and quickly evaluate their suitability and quality.

Another important aspect is the lack of distraction: when given the opportunity to do so, faster coders tend to keep stuff like email and chat off, and get to work hours at a time without interruption.

The chances for this seem not that bad, since the comet will heat up considerably as it approaches the sun, which will make it unnecessary to preheat the interior of Philae before starting to charge the batteries, while at the same time increasing the solar power reaching the panels (due to the sun being closer), so the lander might actually generate enough power to recharge the batteries and come alive again. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
