Dependable and detail-oriented fast learner looking for new challenges. Six years of experience in software development. Professional experience is split about 60/40 between the front-end and back-end. On the front-end I've mainly worked on single-page web applications using jQuery, and recently I've been teaching myself AngularJS for side projects.

Knockout doesn't have built-ins to wire up UI actions automatically to CRUD calls, but the portion of that you end up having to implement is usually extremely small.

As far a wiring up objects to knockout observables you have two options:

1) use the mapping plugin. I tend to stay away from this, as it makes everything on objects observable. Not bad per-se, but I like more control.

2) define your own model...its easy: https://gist.github.com/jdc0589/c48c2355302390ad954b
Two college kids. First apartment. Shit gets real. Fast
> You might bristle, but, according to studies I've seen, a white supremacist is not actually wrong when s/he announces that "Black people are on average less intelligent than white people!".

I must object. Nobody knows how to define or measure "intelligence." When you/they say "intelligence" what is actually being discussed is a specific artificial measure that's meant to indicate what we consider "intelligence," with varying amounts of success.

In addition to the general problems of defining and measuring "intelligence," which nobody really understands how to do, there's also the more specific problem that the techniques developed so far are often biased against minorities.

There's also the problem of cause. The racist crazies tend to interpret any difference as "Disliked Minority X is inherently less intelligent," even though it's almost impossible to distinguish between differences caused by nature versus nurture. If differences are real, how much is due to genetics and how much is due to being oppressed for generations and therefore receiving inferior education and opportunities?

Finally, even if there were a difference, and even if it were inherent, there's the problem of group versus individual. To make this more concrete, let's momentarily ditch intelligence and look at something more morally clear, like propensity for violent crime. Let's say it's demonstrated incontrovertibly that purple people are 10x more prone to violent crime than green people. That still doesn't justify systematic discrimination against purple people, even though the data is clear and the morality of the difference is clear, because individuals matter. Just because purple people are more likely on average to be violent criminals doesn't mean any individual one is. To justify different treatment based on race, you'd have to show that every purple person was this way, which is simply not true.

When it comes to real-world intelligence in real-world races, it's even less relevant, because variation within groups far outweighs variations between groups. Even if it was demonstrated that intelligence varied between races and even if it was decided that lower intelligence somehow merits bad treatment, this still wouldn't justify systematic racism.

In short, there are a bunch of different questions:

1. What are we even measuring?

2. Does a difference even exist?

3. Does that difference justify different treatment?

4. Does a group-level difference justify prejudging individuals within the group?

You seem to be concentrating on #3 exclusively. While it's a fascinating question, I also think it's the least relevant to questions of race, precisely because individual differences far outweigh even the craziest speculated differences by fevered racists. The question of how to deal with people of different intelligence is a good one, but it tells us virtually nothing about race relations as compared to e.g. how to set up Special Education programs.
Also a Lord Vetinari trick from the Discworld universe: "Don't let me keep you."

"When Vetinari considers the meeting ended, he usually dismisses his visitors with the phrase "don't let me detain you." The inherent implication being that he just might if they let him."
Thank you for the sincere post. Best of luck with your surgery, hope everything turns out well.

in regards to build, I was talking more about when these systems became popular/hyped/adopted rather then when they were released.

Maven didn't became really adopted until 2.0 came out, and, to me at least, Gradle gained traction extremely fast after Maven was adopted (along with sbt for scala and others). I think Maven laid out the foundation for the adoption of gradle.

But yes, it's a lot farther apart then Grunt vs Gulp. I was more trying to show that build systems change even for very stable languages/ecoSystems (relatively speaking).

In regards to problem solved - it's an interesting thought, I haven't done a lot of ui outside of web, I wonder if other people can shed some light on churn regarding ui frameworks on desktop (or even flash/silverlight/unity etc...)

Social Media Tips for Techies from Community Evangelist at Red Hat RikkiEnds
Spotlite - Chicago, IL - http://www.spotlite.com/ LOCAL

We're a rapidly growing startup that offers an easy-to-grok web application for enrolling in employer-offered benefits. To give an idea of our disrupting potential, our biggest competitor is paper (who remembers spending a few hours filling out your address ten times during company onboarding?).

We're looking for many roles, most immediately a CTO, and a senior web developer, but we're looking to hire all levels of developers, business analysts, account managers, product owners, and probably more (I'll update with a more definitive list from HR). If you're interested, send a line to help@spotlite.com with your information and we'll get in touch. The career listing on our site is getting updated today and tomorrow so there's nothing on there right now, but email away.

Our stack is ASP.NET MVC, SQL Server and EventStore, RabbitMQ+MassTransit, Jenkins, and Chef to name a few pieces.

We offer great benefits (we sell benefits so they're kind of a big deal to us), incredible culture (hilarous people and hipchat's inline memes help and I don't go a week without laughing to tears at least once), and smart, smart people.

I don't really think they get better connectivity. If you can establish a connection from the inside things works as intended for basically everything. Peer-to-peer is a little different.

Personally I find it a little scary that we allow applications to just open up inbound ports as they see fit. Would you, say, install MySQL locally and have it listen on such an address because it's so unlikely that anyone will ever find it anyway?
Dstillery - NYC, New York

Dstillery is hiring Back-end and Full-stack Engineers!

We're on Crain's Best Places to Work in NYC list and Forbes' America's Most Promising Companies list. We play Ultimate or Soccer on Fridays, we have a company band, game nights, and regular lunch-and-learns and dev seminars where we talk tech and learn from each other. We prefer getting work done to punching a clock, so we keep sane hours and don't track vacation.

Join us, and you'll gain deep experience developing systems at scale, you'll work with a world-class data science team (winners of multiple KDD Best Paper and other awards) that keeps us on the cutting edge of machine learning research, and you'll gain direct exposure to the ins and outs of the rapidly growing and evolving adtech industry.

That is why I mention the good food. Shared consumption creates the bond. If there is just alcohol, you cut off a significant minority.

I regularly drink non-alcoholic beer at these things. It's okay for the first two hours, after which it is perfectly acceptable to leave.

If there is peer pressure to drink, then people get in trouble for being unprofessional.
That's the exact principle I'm talking about- meta-circular implementations shrink the amount of unsafe code and confine it to specific places where it can be better tested and checked.

Rust's unsafe-with-safe-interfaces style is just another way to do that, which honestly is a lot more straightforward.
I think resource usage is also a matter of control. At least during the cold war large amounts of resources were in danger of vanishing behind the "iron curtain" forever. If socialism had successfully caught on in latin america, indochina and more of the gulf states had fallen under soviet influence, it would have been lights out for western economies, which largely rely on raw materials imported from those regions. To a smaller degree this is even still true today, with Europe dependant on Russian gas. In a market where everyone has equal and free access to natural resources 2) might be indeed the best option. Otherwise a strategy where you exploit the resources of other nations first to enrich yourself seems like a far better option. Of course this has happened to various degrees all over the world to the benefit of a few industrialised nations.
I'm not going to comment on the "cosmic censorship" hypothesis of black holes since that's actually an incredibly difficult topic, but regarding the tidal forces that would rip you apart, there are certainly large enough black holes that would allow you to comfortably enter the event horizon without being ripped apart. But just to give you a taste of how counter-intuitive this subject can be, consider that despite the fact that light cannot escape a black hole it is conjectured (by Hawking no less) that black holes can emit radiation! (The mystifying mechanism of this involves, very roughly, quantum fluctuations at the event horizon spontaneously giving rise to particle/anti-particle pairs, with one particle of negative mass falling into the horizon and the other of positive mass going out.)

The event horizon is only the "point of no return" insofar as it's the imaginary boundary inside of which even the forward light cones are oriented towards the center of the sphere (so that light cannot escape no matter what direction it's emitted in). It's not the point at which the tidal forces are so strong that matter is ripped apart (or even just your macroscopic body).

> And false positives are not a rare event. False positives are very common.

Sure, but if you're scanning daily (or close to it), then you don't need to do anything immediately for a positive. You see a growth that looks like it might be cancer—then have the doctor watch it. If you're scanning often, then you'll see any changes. Does it grow? Then it's something to be concerned about. Does it stay the same? Then you don't need to worry.

With frequent enough scans, finding something isn't a cause for any alarm. You can watch how it changes, and decide if it's a concern based on that. Like skin moles. Yes, they could be a problem, but if you have one, you don't need to worry unless it starts changing. Just having one doesn't cause anxiety.
