"All these things are infinitely better than the Chinese worker not having that job, and you not having an iPhone."

And the Chinese person is not happy. There were tons of articles about suicides among the workers. I'm sure you read those?

And the lower/middle class ladies paying $20 instead of $100 for a nail treatment has $80 to spend in the expensive city called NYC.

So we agree going after the nail shops is frivilous?

So, the steepest drop was between September and October 2014. Changes Reddit made in that period:

* Allowing users to enable a setting to always get Reddit served via SSL: http://www.redditblog.com/2014/09/hell-its-about-time-reddit...

* AMA app was released.
[Spec](http://dev.w3.org/fxtf/filters/#filter-region-for-shorthands) hints at this being expected behavior:

“Furthermore, if a shorthand filter expands this visible area like it is the case for <blur()> or <drop-shadow()> the filter region must cover this area as well.”
They have a resilient, stable API. We use it for a number of clinical trials evaluating incentives for walking, and it works fairly well. Better than most of their competitors.

The core of my work is on the operations side rather than on development (although I do a good bit of that as well), so my perspective is that this initial overhead is a one-time cost for using a library, and that I can live with that.

Onyx: Distributed Computing in Clojure
Your point seems to be that macros allow for a slightly more natural syntax for certain things, but I can do pretty much the same thing in a language with a natural HOF syntax (Ruby):

with_open_file filename do |f|
do stuff with file
end

And for your second example:

# our 'macro' function
def defclass(name, parent, &blk)
k = Class.new(parent)
k.instance_eval(&blk)
Kernel.const_set(name, k)
end

defclass :Tiger, Animal do
attr_accessor :age, :name
end

Yes, macros allow for a superset of what you can reasonably accomplish with higher order functions, but I haven't yet seen a simple practical example of where the added power is useful. I'm sure it's nice to have, but there's something to be said about a language which generally gets you 95% of the way there using a simple set of built-in operations.

Well sure, if you don't need the machine, you don't need it and that' fine.

When I was comparing hardware, you really couldn't buy comparable cost/flop GPUs for any significant savings (and you'd spend more on some similar builds), which was my point. No idea if that's still true. The idea that you could get the same thing for half the money just wasn't true.

Yes, and I think that top-down paradigm is fundamentally ridiculous at this scale. That we are expecting one person to do all that is a sign of a problem.

This might have made sense in a 1950s corporation, where the work was relatively stable and manual, where you needed armies of people to perform repetitive actions. But most of Twitter's people are engaged in what is essentially creative work.

When I talk to friends at large software companies, I hear a lot about top-down reorgs and other central-planning issues. Given that primates are always looking for dominance hierarchies, maybe we really can't do much better than organizations where replacing the CEO is the main way to solve problems. But I hope for something better.
No matter how many P's you put in front of it I spit!
I'm wondering why you've chosen such a competitive category. You're in the same league as Runkeeper, Nike, Fitbit, and all the other fitness trackers and they make their income through the sale of devices so they can afford to put their app up for free.

How about picking a niche that doesn't have their need satisfied yet and charging money directly for that? Maybe designing a grader for teachers, or a tool for gov workers to submit reports, or a business expense tracker. There are lots of categories looking for a design overhaul and with just a little bit of research and effort you can make your app stand out from the pack of existing shitty solutions.

Ugh, more Linux-Only. Don't follow this please.

Meh. I get your sentiment here, but I build and deploy on Linux and I post about the stuff I work on. I don't post about the Windows stuff that I haven't worked on in years. And I assume a level of intelligence in my readers that they can translate whatever might be generally applicable into their own platform in the same sense that I don't grumble about Raymond Chen's `Old New Thing` not being directly applicable to my own work but still enjoy it.
poor choices of name happen all the time. we can't change them after they set in, so we have some really dumb use of terms today in the context of 5 or 10 years ago. it even happens inside of software development alone - the use of "responsive" in web design, which always used to mean "responds quickly", not "adapts to resolution and aspect ratio".

std::vector was an exceptionally poor choice of name...

is it so hard to just call it pseudotensor like it is? its confusing for people trying to research the subject when they come across all kinds of geometry and calculus stuff which is irrelevant to the usage here.
I've been doing 32 hours over 4 days for the past month and I've found that I'm working more efficiently and with more attention to the work. I think it's the product of my subconscious treating the fourth day as a deadline every week. In effect, I think I'm getting as much done as if I was working 5 days a week, while at the same time getting paid for 4. If there is any merit to this, I can't see why every employer shouldn't opt for a 4 working day week.

The research doesn’t back this up. This is one of the reasons why I’m reluctant to be prescriptive about these things, our intuition about what we ought to believe and how we ought to think sometimes does not produce the results we want.

For example, people walk around saying it’s important to “take responsibility” for the things that happen to us. And many successful people say, anecdotally, that this is what they do. And yet, many people try this and fail.

Seligman’s book explains why successful people say they take responsibility for what happens to them, but also explains why that doesn’t work for everyone. His research was that successful people have this “optimism” trait where they are asymmetric: They personalize the good things that happen to them, and depersonalize the bad things.

Meaning, they think they are responsible for their success.

But if you ask them, they perceive they were taking responsibility for everything that happened to them. But statistically, this is not the case.

So what I will say to you is, don’t argue with whatever I am writing or saying, go to the original sources and understand what Covey and Seligman are actually saying, and what research they did to arrive that their conclusions and prescriptions for changing your life.
Honestly I thought Apple bought Beats because they wanted Dr. Dre for future marketing purposes. Is that not the case?
its because they aren't talking about what the majority mean when they use the word "tensor". try looking into "psuedotensor". that is the established word for this for nearly a century. you may have better luck... although probably not because the main use of those historically has been in combination with tensors and tensor fields in the geometric setting and physics.

Yeah, that plus gvp. But if you dig into both they're just shell scripts under the hood (nice ones, though!) and given that I've got a makefile or shell script to build the container, run tests, etc. then adding a third-party tool is just one tiny bit more overhead.
Turning phones "off" may not in fact turn everything off. Even removing batteries may not accomplish that, because there may be backup batteries. At least the baseband radio may remain active. It may be possible to geolocate, and to access the microphone and camera. I say "may" so much because it varies among devices.
This is great news! But I've started to use Tmux less after being REALLY into it.

"90 days of weights and times ought to be enough for anybody."
I've been using Flickr since their very early days, way before Yahoo. Part of my devotion is the fact I have this beautiful photostream which I have cultivated over almost 10 years, and represents the cream of the crop of photos that I took and chose to share. There have been times when I thought carefully about which photos I want in my photostream and in what order. Looking back is always a "memory lane" kind of experience, in a much more profound way than looking at my old facebook timeline. A picture says a thousand words, and all that.

Flickr was not, to me, a place to dump photos. Rather it was a showcase of a kind, where my most meaningful photos could be put on display. Maybe picassa was a dumping ground, but not Flickr.

The initial refresh was appreciated but confusing, and my use of Flickr declined. It took ages before any decent app at all was available for the Android and iPhone platforms. They fumbled the Facebook app.

Recently my use of Flickr has picked up again, but I've started to consider other services. With this new breath of fresh air perhaps that consideration will be stalled, maybe indefinitely. It's a competitive landscape.

I'm not at my photographic peak these days, but the photos are still meaningful and become more so over time.

So they want to raise $100M, but the more interesting question is at what valuation?
Yes, absolutely there is a reason for concern. I now volunteer for FLI (the organization Musk funded; we deal with both AI and other x-risks, synthetic bio etc). From a somewhat insider view I think there is a lot we can do, and time might be on our side (AGI is a pretty hard problem). I'm cautiously optimistic that we (rational and altruistic humans) can make a difference.
This seems like a great opportunity for the Zenefits board to save a few bucks; since "wanting to work there" is so important, cut the CEO's pay in half. How's THAT for "action", fucko?
TBH at this point I'm not sure what can they sell, their user share might be a worthy investment however anyone which will be interested in acquiring Yelp e.g. Google, Facebook, Amazon etc. already probably owns most of Yelp's user base via other means anyhow.

Not to mention that people moved from Citysearch and their ilk quite easily on their own. People want Yellow Pages and will find a new site to satisfy that demand if the old one ain't doing it for them anymore. It's not like an upstart would have much trouble getting a list of businesses from tax or business registrations.
> Why, so you can avoid having to spend more time doing what you specialized in?

Yes. Part of enjoying life -- at least for most people -- is taking part in challenges and endeavors in a wide range of activities. If you can work for 4 hours a week and maintain a high income, this would fit the bill but probably not realistic for most people (do you have suggestions besides managing a portfolio of capital, or free-lancing?). MMM is not saying we should do everything ourselves, but to be smart about what we do save have more time for other activities. This is how humans have been biologically desired over millions of years -- to be adaptable and have a wide range of skills. Legs for running, hands for climbing and building and fixing physical objects, noses for smelling. Skills that are unnecessary for simply writing code but useful to use. The flywheel sounds a bit too mechanical and less in tune with our biological needs.

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

There's a new textbook on classical physics by Kip Thorne and Roger Blandford. It hasn't been published yet, but the lecture notes on which it's based are online here

Heh, it's not exactly new, and I'll believe it's been published when I have it in my hands. That book had already been in development for years—and was due out any day now—back when I used it in Physics 136 (Blandford himself taught one of the terms). That was 1997.

The material is great, though, including the coverage of tensors, which served me well the next year in General Relativity (Thorne's last time teaching it). If you're looking for a solid intro to tensor algebra & analysis, I definitely recommend it.

If the problem is that people are dumping alkali waste into the reservoir, your suggestion is to ignore that and then dump in acid to even it out. Making the pH neutral isn't the same thing as making the water clean.

Hey,

Not sure if this is helpful. There are a couple of things which stand out in your in message: '...I know I have problems... have also complained...' and 'I know I have issues ...'
To me, this reads as if you are you parroting what you might have been told repeatedly. Whether or not the statements are factual is irrelevant. What is important, is that you have embraced the language and are defining yourself with it. Unless you are worshiped like a god, you are usually better off using your own language to define yourself.

As a corollary, and possibly not applicable to you, this type of parroting can illicit similar remarks from others, reinforcing this (maybe) incorrect assessment. When someone keeps saying that they have, for example, a lack of attention, people will start to zoom in that feature with laser focus and even the slightest hint of drop in attention will affirm the idea which was placed in their heads. Also, realize that you provide others with an 'easy out' if they are uncomfortable discussing their real reasons for letting you go. Maybe you just have a bo issue, which can be solved by switching cologne?

I am just saying that you should take some distance from this, regain your own language/words/etc. and redefine yourself. I too can be outspoken and direct when it comes to my failings, but I never phrase them as debilitating, shameful, or even 'that big of deal.' By choosing the right words, by framing things correctly, many flaws can be accepted.

Sounds like an amazing technique for developers who are paid on a $/LoC basis. Otherwise... not so much. Pointless ceremony is pointless.
Perhaps it's a poor choice, we'll find out I suppose. The reason is mainly that I know it well, and already have an app that is featured by Apple with great ratings already. To be fair I "picked" the category 4 years ago, and I've made a lot of money in it so far. As for the current choice I suppose I could start something new from scratch, but I felt like it made more sense to pick a current app that I think has the most potential.

Without additional context, the post starts out making you think the customer was offering $75K just to add a feature they wanted. They were actually buying the product anyway, but trying to leverage the sale as a way to add a new feature. Big difference once you realize this, and not such a difficult decision to say no to. The former would be.
Have you ever been involved on the other side of hiring programmers? If so, did you hire them exclusively from their resumes or did you have them demonstrate their ability directly to you in some way?
