Still waiting for a state's voters to pass a ballot measure that constitutionally prohibits the state or any municipality within it from establishing preferential/discriminatory tax regimes. If you want to put this pandering to bed, it's surprisingly easy to do. Just be sure you're prepared for the corporate money flooding in from all points of the compass to defeat you with scare ads. Megalocorp knows it can't afford to let even one state do this; then their game will be up.
Instant.io is pretty much, hands down the best way I've found to transfer a file to a friend or coworker. No waiting for uploads to finish, no mucking about with accounts and permissions, just copy a hash and go. Really simple, very effective.

I can't wait for the final version!
I also have a 1st Gen Automatic that I got with the launch/pre-order. Same issues! I have a 2nd one I ordered last year for our other car ... same problem there.

It mostly just won't connect, seems far worse with the iPhone 6 than it was with the 5S. I tried Automatic Support, but didn't get very far beyond "iOS is killing the app due to memory".

When it works it's great! I'm also skeptical about buying a 2nd gen. Would love this to work properly!
BS. People use the internet. Most people support the goverment, why is hard to accept that ? Democracy only works for north americans when they like the leader....
The DO-178B/C explicitly does not specify how verification is done but describes the properties that are expected of the verification evidences that you submit to the certification authorities; so formal verification is perfectly fine as one item on your verification check list. In particular DO-333 amends DO-178C with specific topics concerning formal methods.

For example Astree [1] has been developed for decades now, with Airbus as one of the major sponsors.

Yes it is. But on the other hand, the system has worked all these years , thousands of customers used it and got their jobs done. At that time they needed quick prototypes to settle on a good design.
> I know young people from almost every European country and I feel more connected to them to, say, my 50-year old working class neighbours.

I'm sure you do, in certain ways. But, for example, perhaps some of your friends have 50-year old neighbours, who work in a lower paid job, and yet it would simply never occur to them that they were a different "class" and therefore not to be associated with. That's part of your culture.
FYI, this seems to affect some configurations but not all configurations. I've had one member of the NYC BSD group ran these against his IPSec configuration with just errors, but then set up a IPSec using the OP's configuration and was able to reproduce the coredumps.
I can't believe no one has mentioned LinkedIn yet. I have received virtually all my inbound contacts through my LinkedIn profile. Explicitely mention your new status ("consultant"/"freelancer" + your specialty) as your main activity and I can assure you you will get contract offers. They will not be the best in the world, but that will improve with time (and new connections).
This is why Google's "Don't be evil" mantra freaks me out. Yeah they're not evil now, but who knows in 15 years? That mantra is gonna be like a slap in the face.
Hmm, it looks like the number is used for directory assistance [0] in North America at least.

>Throughout North America, 1-XXX-555-1212 will connect to directory assistance for the specified XXX area code

I wasn't able to find a link between that number and TellMe/MS. They appear to have had the 1-800-555-TELL (8355) [1] number but no mention of the 1212 number.

Though a google for the number +"Microsoft" reveals they appear to use that number in a couple of their SQL server books [2]

Also, a quad core processor with far larger cache (it's the version with the 128MB eDRAM), far faster graphics, higher resolution screen, and four times the storage.

The 13" rMBP would be a generally better comparison, albeit still with substantially faster graphics, but it's the same price as the high-end Pixel, so I suppose less of an interesting talking point.
Why? It's more convenient. I can have the iTunes movie playing in 10 seconds instead of going to the store or waiting for shipping.

Make year requirement is one of those things that are supposed to make you feel safe, warm and and fuzzy, but are meaningless.

Everybody else in the industry and consumer space uses mileage for a good reason - a 2007 vehicle with 450,000 miles on it is hardly new or safe.

While this mileage is atypical of average consumer car, any vehicle retired from police or taxi service is likely to be in that range.
I am sure a lot of North Osetians in Georgia are offended when they remember Georgia invading them and killing helpless people because the prime minister of Georgia back then was a US puppet.

This 1000x. iPlayer is lauded, and generally works well, but it has incredibly restrictive, short term availability of content entirely paid for by taxpayers.

It is unclear how anyone in the UK can benefit from TV programmes removed from this service, or WHY any content for which the BBC doesn't have permanent distribution rights (via iPlayer) should ever be funded or produced by the BBC.
When it comes to translations and rotations, most of the algorithms out there use 4x4 matrices, dual quaternions, axis-angle rotations, or Euler angles. There may be some emerging work using geometric algebras.

So when you say "extremely complex" I think quaternions, because i^2 = j^2 = k^2 = ijk = -1 .

I once had the opportunity to refactor a lot of disparate implementations of 3D manipulations into a single math library, and migrate all the various algorithms to quaternion-based calculations. I actually had time to examine and understand a lot of different ways of doing the same thing and validate that they actually were all doing the same thing.

But then we all got canned when the contract was used to wipe someone's backside. I think the former customer tossed all that custom code in the trash and decided to do everything with MATLAB. I hope that's working out well for them. And by that, I mean I hope they are put into a persistent vegetative state during a prison riot.
The government isn't an intelligent entity; it's made up of people. And people have prejudices, hatreds, fears, and worst of all, a pack mentality. Governments have the worst track record when it comes to oppressing minorities--why would we expect giving governments the power to censor speech help minorities?

True, lambda is DEFINITELY an advance, but it's more like the salmon at a buffet that includes steak and chicken. Some applications will need just the ability to run code (lambda), some will need defined environments (containers) and some will need total isolation (VMs/bare metal). You'll see a mix of all of these in every mature environment - some things do not fit. For example, it's super unlikely that you'd be able to run a trading app on Lamdba (needs 10GB/sec of direct network access & memory); similarly it'd be totally unnecessary to run a thumbnail processor on bare metal (though you could, of course).

Ehhhhh, no. Yanukovych was a Putin puppet elected with Russian money that served predominantly Russian interests, hence his defiant opposition to what the populace wanted - steps to integrate with the European Union.

His government turned on its own people and cracked down on protesters, leading to the events of EuroMaidan. Putin of course would not have the European Union in his backyard. He also certainly did not want his main access to the Black Sea to be cut off, so he used the turmoil to annex Crimea, while keeping Eastern Ukraine as unstable as possible.
Radio Shack made many legally binding contracts. They promised that they would pay back their creditors. The promised suppliers sales volume. Radio Shack is in bankruptcy and all those contracts are (or have been) torn up. It's not just a privacy contract that has been torn up.

And for all the wailing and nashing of teeth I can go down to Acxiom and get far more data about people than radio shack has.
Another piece of negative propaganda made it to the front page of hacker news. Let's all clap our hands. It seems to me that the warmongers in Washington pay good money so that cheap authors like her may get a chance to become government mouthpieces. Well done!
Noone critisizes the US of course, that's because all americans believe that are an exceptionally great people etc etc. That's what Obama told them anyway.
To put things correctly: Ukraine is under the Nazi once again and American Nulad helped create a coup that killed so many people and brought in power a Nazi affiliated party.
United states has been supporting dictactors and causing more distruction and blood shedding for many many years (and there is more to come). The dictator in charge in Ukrane has exterminated 6000 russian speaking people and has put (or was told to) an american in the Ministry of Agriculture! (they gave her Ukrainian citizenship in no time so that she would not have any trouble opening the door to Masanto).
In a nutshel, the world would be a better place if United states stopped intervening in other countries affairs and kept to themselves. But then again, most Americans would rather watch tv than critisize their governement and its role in other people's suffering. They would rather not think about the slaughter that took place months in Odesa, Ukraine where pregnate women were burned alive by the nazi Ukranian governement. They like to have everything spoon fed to them so prapaganda like this is easily swallowed.
As far as Europe is concerned, it has become a group of vassal pointless lifeless countries that can not support the basic human principles of democracy and human rights. They are too a disgrace to the world.

>>If you read the labor department site on H1B, "not replacing an American job" is actually not a requirement.

It's an implicit requirement. In order for the H1B application to be approved, the company needs to demonstrate that American workers with equal skill were not available to fill that position. The amount of paperwork required for this process is insane. The application needs to show things like job postings on local newspapers, online ads, etc. as well as a list of who applied and why they got denied (or got offers but rejected them).
with all due respect. I'm a person. I'm Brazilian. I'm not Russian. It's amazing how dismissive people are of people who have a contrarian opinion.

He addresses this point:

But apparently, many managers create havoc by discouraging thinking and urging their subordinates to "produce" code. Later they complain that 80 percent of their labour force is tied up with "program maintenance", and blame software technology for that sorry state of affairs, instead of themselves. So much for the poor software manager. (All this is well-known, but occasionally needs to be said again.)
I've been waiting to upgrade my Mid 2012 15" MPB Retina for a while. I bought the high end model at the time, and the difference between mine and the new version is basically:

* Nvidia GT 650M -> AMD R9 M370X

* PICe SSD 2x -> 4x

* Battery 95Wh -> 99.5Wh

* force touch trackpad

I'm not sure it's worth the price.

That's a bug on code that handles leap second. It's not a bug triggered by losing accuracy by ignoring leap seconds.

I'm also very curious about what kind of applications will fail if the kernel simply ignored leap seconds, and let the clock get a second out of sync.

A computer does not last for long enough for leap seconds to add to anything. I'm unable to come out with any hypothetical use case where that small difference is relevant, but specialized hardware and software to deal with the issue are not necessary.
Plainly put and well put. They sold the dream, mentioning to me that we can change our lives, buy Patek timepieces, get boats and finally meet Kanye West. At the end of the day, it'll be a major time investment for me and I don't see how 4 to 5 hours a week would be sufficient any any business situation, especially when it comes to tech (although, I would love to only have to invest that much time into anything and change mankind).

It'll really come down to me doing a lot of development between now and October, including managing another developer if they stay true to their word and get another developer to help out.

And no, they haven't already exited or anything of that nature. Not yet. Ambitious friends of mine, though.
The Ukrainians have no obligation to uphold any kind of "silent" agreement. If they want to join an economic organization, it is their right to do so - a sentiment they expressed through Euromaidan.
Because that's everywhere. Whether everywhere should "just use TAI" is exactly the question (only they're not talking about TAI as far as I can see, but a new standard which would I think map 1:1 to it).
What a disturbing opinion and mindset. I was born and raised in Ukraine, still have most of my family there. Everything you said is absurd; we simply want freedom from Russian influence to take care of our country.
They're brainwashed to the same extent that many people in the US are brainwashed.

The wonderful thing about modern propaganda is that it has become so subtle we often mistake it for our own opinions.

As a European when I watched CNN for the first time at the early stages of the Iraq war, I first wasn't sure whether it was supposed to be satire or fiction. It took me a while to realise that this is what many people think of as "news" in the US. Makes me wonder what I miss in our own news media -- you only spot bold faced lies when you have a trusted reference you can compare them to.

I don't think a CoC makes such conversations impossible, interested parties won't be offended. Sure, it could easily go too far, with mild transgressions being reported left and right (ya know, instead of the person just demurring or bowing out of the conversation), but I think it is fair to say that you've then discovered that those aren't reasonable, interesting people to be talking to.

What it does is make it impossible for party A to follow party B around, repeatedly calling their beliefs a sham (notice the follow around and repeatedly) and then defend their behavior as appropriate because their statements were truthful and couth (basically, being an ass and then standing on the ceremony of politeness).

If you don't think the other participants are going to mostly be reasonable and that staff are going to be reasonable about dealing with mild complaints, don't attend!
I disagree withe the "merciless" assessment of the Uber situation. With some hands on experience in the NYC taxi industry and son of a life long cabbie, I'd argue Uber/Lyft has made things better for both drivers and customers.

The standard cut for traditional car service in NYC has been 33%. Not to mention any promotional coupons were also deducted from drivers sub-total. This was standard before Green Taxi, Uber and Lyft etc. This is on top of soul killing idle hours for car service drivers because they had to stay in the city to be eligible for the next job.

A NYC yellow cab driver pays in $700+ gas weekly thanks to mafia like tactics of cab medallion owning ventures. That's a whole set of debate that I won't divulge.

I looked into Meteor and it's amazing how everything clicks together. It's just such a drastic change in complexity and feels like a breath of fresh air.

The one thing that made me drop it as the choice for a primary stack was the fact that it's tied so heavily into MongoDB. Meteor has a mongodb 'server' replicated client side, that's how they can actually make Meteor so god damn snappy, it's latancy compensation.

If they were to integrate something like Postgresql into Meteor, I would easily switch over from Rails and it would become my de-facto web stack.

I'll just keep building Rails APIs with EmberJS clients until then, I do hope it's soon though. I loved working with Meteor.
