Downvotes perhaps because lying to a cop, or resorting to yes-it-is-vs-no-it-isnt with authorities is stupid. He stopped you, and has far more weight in court regarding whether conditions were safe for that speed than you do. Doing 54 in a 40 is fast, and neither the cop nor judge will agree with your assessment.

Cops may let you go faster, and they're authorized to do so if conditions fit ... but they also get to say "the speed limit is a limit" and charge you accordingly. There are a few areas where speed limits are broadly understood, even codified, as suggestions (they post limit signs to elicit federal funds, but on a dry sunny day all they care is you can stay on the road and can stop in time), but nearly everywhere else just realize speed limits are just that, and if you violate them don't be surprised if the jurisdiction decides to profit off your actions.

Don't hope for that. Europe is deeply divided. Everyone hates and blames "the others" for their own mistakes and problems, most of which were caused by political and economic (big business) elites in those countries. Not to forget, both US and Russia have their minions in Europe.

Yes. It's like visiting the websites of two competing software vendors. One has a plain-as-day pricing table with a $100 / month plan and a big blue "Buy now" button. The other company's Pricing page just reads: "Call us for a quote". Given the choice, who would ever go with the company that makes you talk to an enterprise salesman?

Somehow car dealers in the U.S. have managed to enshrine this sleazy sales model into state laws, which is certainly an amazing feat of lobbying.
Do you honestly think it's fair and a good idea to break the law, if you believe it's in the consumer's best interest?

because the dealership's concern is not Tesla, whom they consider a niche player. Their concern is their manufacturers GM, Toyota, Ford will set up their own stores and compete with and undercut them. The dealerships have poured a lot of resources into their dealerships over the years and it is an anti-trust issue for them to compete directly with the much more powerfule manufacturers.
Well, the good thing is that "wokring from home" lets you choose to go to a coworking space or not... while people who actually enjoy working from home (like me for example) don't get to choose if the job is "office-only".
I did remote contract dev work for about 2 years with a startup (all members of our team of 3-4 were remote). It did take a little getting used to, but ultimately I enjoyed it. A few key things that helped:

1) Good communication (as many others have mentioned) - team members were always on chat (campfire->slack) while working. We also had semi-regular weekly video chats where we talked about what was going on. Video was nice because it helped to put faces to the people you were working with.

2) Don't focus on work 100% of the time - just like non-remote offices, people need time where they can chat about non-work related things, like games, home life, funny cat pictures, etc. Talking about these things helps create bonds beyond work, and improves the team imo.

3) Meet in person occasionally - the team all met once a year in person. Yes it can be a little awkward initially, but it also helps to further cement that there is a real person behind the chat.

The problem that I've noticed is that we DO hire outside consultants... but too often that provides a security blanket for the decision makers, and they think that just because they outsourced the work, that they have nothing to worry about anymore.

I think the author's approach is pragmatic. I think more decision makers need to realize that data sets can just as easily be a liability as they can be an asset. I work in healthcare and I see slow motion trainwrecks waiting to happen all around me.

>Who determines who professional and not professional?

It isn't difficult. You're "professional" if you are charging people for transportation services. And if you are doing so, your standard car insurance isn't going to cover you in the case of an accident.

This isn't some case of over-reaching government; if you kill or maim someone while driving from point A to point B, the likelihood of which increases as a professional driver spending more time on the road, you need to ensure that you can cover associated costs of said disaster.

People fail to see that at least part of the reason Uber is able to be cheaper than a taxi service (much like AirBnB is cheaper than hotels) is that they are skirting a requirement that taxis have: sufficient insurance.

The poster is saying that, short term, social change (immigration or political upheaval) brings about a reaction in favor of what is seen as conservative or hardline traditionalists. In many European countries this is a shift to the right. For example Hitler's rise to power was probably aided by Communists attempting to seize power. I'm not sure this is a general rule.

I agree "no" is a bad idea. But I doubt "yes" has to do with intent at all.

I think procedurally what the officer is doing is establishing a documentation record to support their speed facts because that makes it easy for them if/when you contest the ticket in court.

The officer has a preferred narrative/mold and is trying find a way to document that you agree with that version at the time you were pulled over in case you try to change the story later in court. So "yes, I know" seems to work essentially as that blanket acceptance of the officer's narrative.
There's something charmingly robotic to me about the removal of the 12 (things) and 12 (years), which is appropriate according to the rules but ruins the title. Maybe the best way for AI to regularly pass the Turing test is for humans to continue behaving increasingly automatically.
But what's the worst that could happen? Let's say you're not drunk, you don't have anything illegal in your car, and the speed is nothing too bad. You were just speeding. Can anything you say result in anything worse than a ticket and a fine?
I believe that the US is a net exporter of food and could probably be self sufficient in oil too if need be. Also, with that huge military the US could pretty much take whatever we want from whomever we want. It reminds me of a scene from the Rome TV series when Caesar is in Alexandria trying to collect the money owed to Rome (Pompey the Great). He is explaining his calculations to the Egyptians when the minister of Egypt protests that is based on Roman law, and Caesar replies "Is there any other?"

Right. Anything that a human can solve by following simple mechanical steps can be easily done by a computer. (See Turing's definition of computability.) Many people now are just following simple mechanical steps without understanding. They may as well use Mathematica or Wolfram|Alpha for such simple problems http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=12x%5E2%2B2x-30%3D0
They should focus on learning how to convert real problems into a format Wolfram|Alpha can understand.

A girlfriend way back when introduced me to the term "People Batteries." As in it takes energy to be around people. Some people get energy from being around other people and some from being alone. If you're the alone type those batteries still fill up. I think that's a much better model than people being extraverts OR(and only or) introverts. We're more complicated than that.
Amazon's bandwidth rates are more than 10 times what we can get locally, and power is included in our colo rental fees. I'm assuming that will pretty much be the situation for mrmondo too.

In terms of monthly costs, all the gear I deal with is lease to own: We pay less per month when the servers are new, and 3 years down the line our bills drop. There's no reason to have large capital expenditures just because you want your own gear.

As for security, it's not really that simple. Amazon's physical security may be top notch, and their patching for Xen and network security may be just fine, but beyond that you're pretty much on your own with Amazon just as you are with your own gear. You still need to understand how to configure firewall settings, and understand how to keep your VMs secure. Amazon's security needs to be top notch because it adds an additional layer that you don't have direct control over, but that does not provide any additional security that you would not have in most reasonable colo facilities where the physical network devices past the service providers network drop is totally in your control, in a locked environment.

> My experience is that companies rarely need expensive network storage gear

The thing is, this gear isn't expensive. For about $250/month I can lease to own a 2TB PCIe SSD delivering 2.8GB/s read, 1.9GB/s write, 450k read and 150k write IOPS. That's in the UK, with 20% VAT, and without shopping around. Or if I want something with the performance profile of Amazons new offering, I can pay $25/month. Amazons cheapest EBS offerings, which are nowhere near what this article about, costs $200/month for 2TB space. Go for provisioned IOPS and the EBS cost skyrockets.

AWS is the expensive network storage option, not leasing your own.

I can lease servers to put it in to get me "free" compute capacity for the difference in cost of the raw storage and still have money left over after spares and hosting/power.

Factor in bandwidth and it gets downright comical - Amazons bandwidth prices are so totally out of whack that where for managed/colo setups CDN is an expense, for AWS setups a good CDN can save you vast amounts of money by cutting your bandwidth charges. And that's without discounted rates. Start putting decent volumes through and host at a carrier neutral facility and paying even 1/20'th for bandwidth vs. AWS is well within reach with peering arrangements and a good mix of transit providers.

Just a random question that popped into my head while reading (thank you for the article!)... What would be the longest repetitions of digits within various orders of magnitude of Pi?

In other words, the first 10 characters (again looking at only the fractional portion:

1415926535

The longest repetition is a length of one and the digit is 1.

Playing with regexes, I found:

In 100 digits, you get a repetition of the digits 592

In 1000 digits, the first longest repetition is 23846

In 10000 digits, I found a six digit repetition, 120190 but
at that point, the quadradic nature of the regex made searching for 7 impossible so I would probably write a program that used something like suffix trees to get further.

I agree with everything but the last paragraph.

As much as I would like it to be different, we are still at least one or two decades away from an effective European deterrent against Russian aggression. If only because of our inability to coordinate decisive responses and our unwillingness to pool military resources in a European army, rather than split them into national militaries with incredibly amounts of redundancy and ineffectiveness.

If you answer directly, it should be to say "I only know what my speedometer displays." And then politely decline to mention the number it had been displaying. If you say a number, in the cops eyes, you are either lying or confessing. If you just say "yes", you cut off certain affirmative defenses you could otherwise raise. If you say "no", the cop may charge you with reckless or inattentive driving rather than speeding. There is literally no way to answer that question that can help you, the best you can do is say the thing that hurts you least.

The answer that you should train yourself to give is "I do not consent to searches, seizures, or questioning without the assistance of legal counsel. Am I free to go? If not, why am I being detained?"

The same response covers all police questions in the US. You can repeat the entire thing on subsequent questions, or you can shorten it to "I don't consent to questioning without the assistance of legal counsel." You have to train yourself. Your natural instinct will be to present as nonthreatening and cooperative. You need to be nonthreatening and unimaginably stubborn. If you have ever seen the television show "COPS", very nearly every "guest star" just talks himself right into a trip to jail. Almost every episode is a variation on this:

COP: Sir, can you think of any reason why I should arrest you tonight?
Dumb-Assed Suspect: I have drugs in my pocket.
COP (to DAS): Put your hands behind your back.
[COP handcuffs DAS and performs a search.]
COP (to camera): He just gave us reasonable suspicion, so I searched him and found drugs.
He's going to jail now.

Don't be that guy. After you give your canned response, one of several things should happen. The cop realizes you're going to be actual work, and releases you with a stern warning, so he can pursue easier marks. The cop realizes that he gets overtime pay for appearing in court to testify, and you might go to trial, so he issues the summons. The cop gets personally offended at your "constitutional bullshit" and actually arrests you on a "contempt of cop" pretext charge, which will vary by jurisdiction. This is a punitive inconvenience for you, but you can then launch a civil suit that will probably pay out, after you consult with a civil rights attorney.

If you have any inkling it might go down the third way, it would be wise to record the entire encounter and make public records requests for any recordings the police may have in their possession as soon as you possibly can. And you should have such an inkling. So record every police encounter, always. If it's a routine encounter, you can always delete the video, but if it goes bad, you can't magic up a recording out of thin air.

There's no "gotcha" where you have to find a lawyer under certain constraints or they get to question you without one.

You have the right to legal counsel. That means they have to let you do what you need to do to find a lawyer, or provide you with one. They can't just say, "sorry, time's up, now we go question you anyway." They could in theory detain you for a while longer without a lawyer, but they couldn't continue to question you.
We're all talking about what we would do when seeing this job post, but the issue isn't how many thousands of us wouldn't apply, but how many dozens would. And it's easy enough to test response rates to these things. I.e., as much as it turns off many of us it might turn on a few people, and they may even have some evidence that this approach works. No clue whether they did or didn't, but they can always post it again if they don't get applicants they like.

There's no point in debating what we like when they can get the right answer with confidence via testing.
I personally don't see why pagination should be in core. That's not a necessary thing to have. I would rather have the core developers work on more important things like SQL support or performance optimizations rather than having to worry about a dynamic way to do pagination. There are 3rd party plugins for that reason, so you can still accomplish what you need to without needing everything in core.

Also... you may want to look at it again. A LOT has changed since last year.

"From what I've heard"

That's the problem, you're not going to hear about how this intelligence worked, or didn't. This leaves the public (and media) to speculate endlessly, and less informed debaters to claim there "is no evidence" of the information stopping an attack.

This little behind the curtain threat, basically reveals (or insinuates) that when the "rubber hits the road" the information is in fact very valuable.

I've been working remote for 10 years. For the first 6 years I worked from home and I lived in various countries as a bonus (since the location wasn't tied to the work).

For the last 4 years I've been based in a coworking space. I can highly recommend it. The biggest benefit to me was that it forced me to have set times to finish work. When I worked from home I would always work a little bit longer.

Now I switch my computer off, leave the coworking space in the evening, go home and relax. There is no temptation to start working again.
