I was thinking of starting a coding boot camp because I love programming and I love to teach.

So my question is, what do people look for in coding boot camps? What do they expect from them?
> Counter-intuitively, I found that the sharpest were the ones least likely to cut...

This is actually a pretty common phenomenon among pretty much any kind of blade. The logic is that (supposedly) the majority of knife accidents are caused by losing control of the knife through applied pressure. When something unexpected happens, the knife has a lot of force behind it and travels quickly to places it isn't supposed to be, like inside you. A well-sharpened kitchen knife will cut through vegetables with barely more pressure than the weight of the blade, so unexpected forceful interactions are very rare.
shouldn't it be ancient "roman army knife" instead of "swiss army knife"?

Took only a minute to try:

English -> Filipino (Tagalog) -> Chinese-simplified (Mandarin?) ->
English

I remember reading an article about a year ago (NSA) to identify the
user, based on how they are written, vocabulary, spelling errors,
grammar, language, and so on.

It is interesting to me, because it is difficult to change the written
and spoken word in use. It can be estimated that there are between two
characters similar amount of help.

Recently I can think of now is to check plagiarism (used in schools and
universities, for example) is proprietary algorithm.

Are there any public this algorithm? I can find out more information?
(Academic journals?) I just DDGing wrong search terms?

I have to say, this is a great idea. There was some information lost in
transit, but most of my thoughts came through (albeit broken). It's probably
worse since I used multiple intermediaries and Mandarin doesn't
map onto English (or vice-versa) in grammar or vocabulary.

Maybe they should recruit /b/ users or others who aren't especially taxed by disturbing images.
> Last I checked it's true that on Linux there is no non-blocking API for disk I/O,

There is (see io_submit and friends) but the interface is incomplete and it's often buggy. A thread pool works far better, and performance overhead (for anything in your 2.5" or 3.5" form factor) is minimal to non-existant.
Steven, if you're reading, you got your history slightly wrong. System V got its init handling from Sun's SunOS 4.x. It was negotiated as part of the integration between SunOS and System V which would become the "one UNIX for everyone". Unfortunately for all of us, AT&T really really loved "run levels" and Sun really really liked BSD's way of configuring the system. Which got you the unholy love child you saw in Solaris 2.0 and System V release 2.0.

For the other Sun folks from the systems group who quit rather than submit to the demands, you were right, I was wrong. We couldn't convince them of the error of their ways.
It's not a bubble! This time is different!
The ironic thing is that the "standard" layout was an "innovation" upon earlier layouts, and you can easily imagine a long-time user of the IBM AT keyboard leveling the same kind of complaints: "Having the function keys on the left was so much better! Why did those stupid arrow keys have to get in the way and make the numpad so much further away from the main cluster?"

Of course it's not really the same since the AT design hadn't been around for decades, but it's worth remembering that keyboard evolution stopped at an essentially arbitrary point rather than at some imagined pinnacle of design.
When teaching Scala I wouldn't start with the jargon first -- start from the problem, show the solution, then name the patterns used. When teaching algebraic data types, for example, we start with more familiar OO terminology like "is-a" and "has-a", and then say we have this other name for these patterns.

To be clear, I have a horse in this race: I teach Scala (and have written a book on it, which you can find here: http://underscore.io/training/courses/essential-scala/). I also strongly believe Scala has been held back by poor teaching.
Figures 3, 4, 5, and 6 are all showing the thumbnail for Figure 6.
I wouldn't even say it's under debate. We clearly haven't mastered it.
For some years now, I've used Windows/Linux on the desktop and a Mac laptop. I no longer have trouble switching between those two, but I get all screwed up when I try to use somebody's Windows laptop...
> There's also only one key to be pressed by the thumb, unlike the 13 (!) for the bassoon

Surely a middle ground would be preferable. One of the biggest shortcomings of the modern keyboard is that each thumb is essentially responsible for only a single key each, while the thumb is by far the most flexible and strongest of the digits.
I'm not what I would ever describe as a gamer. Well, I was massively when I was much younger in the arcade, 8 and 16 bit days but now, not so much/at all.

The problem I have with many freemium games is for me they have absolutely no lasting appeal. I would estimate that 75% of freemium games I've installed, I may have played a sum total of half an hour and then got annoyed/fed up/bored and removed it. Adverts, replay timers etc. are certainly to blame but what mostly is a turn off for games of these types is there is no soul in a lot of these games.

Take Triple Jump, Don't Step On The White Tile, Avoid The Blocks etc. for example(s). They're like Christmas cracker toys. You play them once or twice, discover how lame they are and throw them away.

While I realise those games aren't meant to be much more than that (and an SEO exercise), there are so many like these on the various app stores and few games that have any kind of depth to them. I would more than happily, and have happily, paid $1, $2 or more for a game that held my interest for longer than half an hour. The biggest problem I have is these throw-away games have been so cleverly marketed or SE-optimised that they make up the bulk of "featured", "highlighted" or "best selling" games and any game with a modicum of depth disappear into the ether, undiscovered. It's frustrating for someone who wants to play a fun, entertaining game, not an annoying, repetitive and uninspiring christmas cracker game.
I think if I was any project leaving sourceforge, I would try and delete as much as possible, including the user account. Failing that, I would upload as the last release an "installer" that just gives notice that downloads through sourceforge are no longer supported due to their scammy behaviour, and a link of where to get the valid download.
Yup, I'm much in favor of using a constructor, or even a trait, if such a breakage can be problematic, because I believe types are part of an API (so they should have been opaque types in the beginning). But I now understand what an idiomatic Go way is.
A coding bootcamp is basically a vocational program. Grads are looking to get placed in web developer roles so that's what their metric of success - can graduates get junior web roles?
You really need a freemium model for this to gain any type of traction.
Or worse, you were holding down the key, but without any tactile feedback you misjudged the actuation point and disengaged unintentionally.
And all those developers writing iPhone and iPad apps should use... Linux? Windows???

This is bean counter thinking. The Mac plays a much more important role in the Apple ecosystem than just generating profit. This guy probably thinks Chevy should kill off the Corvette too.

With regards to a quote in the link: "Our purpose here isn’t to make money. Our purpose is to acquire and serve customers. Making money is the logical consequence of doing our jobs well, but it isn’t our purpose."

I am baffled. Think about what stakeholders you can service if making money is a (possible) consequence of doing your job well, but not your purpose. In my Peter Drucker-inspired econoverse, that's a pretty short lifespan you've got ahead of you. One day or another, that bottom line catches up with you.
Sorry, what's the workaround for reading this article? Does it cost money?

That's two years old now, but it's interesting to see some of the points in there validated by Kongregate's research: eg. how guilds primarily serve to exert social pressure, and how UAE and Kuwait have ridiculous whales (average spend per playing user $500!).
I'm more curious about what's generally covered in the curriculum. Three months doesn't seem like enough time to learn much in depth, even if you're a total workaholic.
No, I'll back Aidos up. I hated trackpads until the first time I used a MacBook. Apple's trackpads are just way easier to be precise with. I have no clue why. It can't be the software, because it's still true when running Windows via Boot Camp.

Xilinx invested heavily in TSMC's TSV interposer and likely their IN-FO fan-out packaging. These allow them to integrate more silicon area in the same package space. It can potentially offset the technology node gap, and maybe for lower cost. Yes, TSV is expensive, but a process node is even more expensive.

Lately I've been using a chromebook with arch whenever I use a laptop ( luckily it's not too often ), and while they keyboard isn't completely awful, going from mechanicals at work and home to a chicklet keyboard is annoying at best. I've been looking for a decent portable mechanical keyboard to throw in my backpack, but so far a densely keyed (not sure if that's the right term?) tenkeyless is the best I've found, and I'm having a hard time imagining a keyboard with all the "extra" keys being almost pocket sized, unless you're bringing back JNCO ;).

I created my own keyboard design (http://atreus.technomancy.us) and have had a number of people ask me why I haven't put it on Kickstarter.

Ironically it's because the startup costs are so low, and gradually ramping up production makes a lot more sense to me than exploding onto with a huge bang that requires a lot of investment without knowing how the demand will hold up in the long-term.
I really value simplicity, security and reliability and therefore use an offline generator for static HTML pages.

I don't really see the use case for something in between a "fire and forget" static HTML site and a well administrated full featured Wordpress (or similar) CMS. As soon as you add PHP or other server side executable you'll need to update constantly and run into update problems.

Rather then mastering complexity, I'd say engineering, and in particular electronic engineering, has mastered prediction. It was the rise of accurate simulation tools, such as SPICE, that allowed the construction of reliable integrated circuits and the computing revolution.

It strikes me that the nano/molecular technology revolution depends on the wide availability of accurate simulators. (Please do say if there already a molecular equivalent of SPICE available!)

It takes a long time to learn since it's a pretty big divergence from the conventional design. It only has 42 keys, but with the fn layer (activated with the thumb rather than an awkward pinky reach you normally see on laptops) you can still hit all the keys you need. The other upside is apart from being much smaller it also means your fingers never have very far to reach, so it's also more comfortable.

What I don't understand is what is the cost to an ISP of switching. Whether it is network devices or users devices, unless they are more than 10yo, I would expect them to be all IPv6 compatible. So yes it will involve some reconfiguration, training engineers and support, but it looks like a relatively small investment to me. The switch to optic fibre is a way bigger investment.
I don't "hate" systemd either, I just think it's a bad approach. It flies in the face of the "open architecture" concept and stifles innovation. It discourages users from learning about how their operating system works, and it unnecessarily puts too much control of a fundamental component of the OS in the hands of a too-small number of people.

None of these reflect the Linux I grew up with. Thus, I am not a fan of systemd. #notmylinux
Perhaps to learn and be ready if that new and untested framework is ideal for a larger project in the future?
I've switched to this setup a couple of years ago. The biggest improvement, even if you stay with disposable razors: get a good brush and whip up your own lather from soap or shaving cream and use a preshave. It's a massive improvement over the standard goo imo. I've experimented with a lot of them and settled on the relatively cheap Proraso shaving cream (green) and pre/postshave.
Warning: you can spend tons of time and money tinkering :P

Finding the right blades also takes some time. I've tried some that are highly rated (Feather) but they didn't work for me. I'm using Personna Reds now and am very happy with them. I got a 200 pack and it usually last quite long (2-3 shaves per blade, you could get more but I prefer taking no risk)
I agree with most of this, especially the fact that complexity has simply been shifted to other places. It's much easier for me to read a systemd unit file than it was for me to read a complex set of init scripts. The problem is that when I have 10 or 20 units with interlocking dependencies, it's an absolute nightmare to try and untangle because I have to jump between so many different files. Having to specify After=X and Requires=X seems like a prime example of optimizing for the 1% usecase. 99% of the time, when A must start after B, it's because A requires B. Having to specify both is something that is easily and often missed, and a hard problem to track down if you didn't read the documentation carefully. There's also the problem that it seems to be metastasizing and taking other parts of the OS. The longstanding /var/log/messages is now replaced by journalctl tool, and the logs are actually in binary. The venerable "hostname" command is now "hostnamectl" because it must go through systemd. They have also replaced chroot with systemd-nspawn, and made it so you cannot even use systemd while in a normal chroot!
Got a CS degree a decade ago, haven't been able to find a programming jobs since (I don't know Java or C#, learned some esoteric languages called C and C++ nobody is hiring for.) Boot camps promise jobs, after a decade of looking at jobs that require 5+ years of experience, I hope something like that can finally be my ticket into the industry. As opposed to all those projects I worked on over those four years. The webserver, the proxy, the file system, the kernel, the terminal, the shell, the ML parser written in ML, the raytracer, the networking stack, the video games. All my personal project.

So what do they have to you at bootcamps that is so special?

There is something epically beautiful about OpenBSD's consistency over the last 10 years. I swear that a 2004 OpenBSD sysadmin would be close to 100% efficient with a circa 2015 OpenBSD system, despite the absolutely massive number of improvements and changes that have been made with the operating system.

Once systemd starts to get traction, it's cognitive overhead is going to become a real problem for sysadmins who want to be able to model the entire boot process and run-state in their head.

For better or worse (I honestly don't know which, btw), you are going to have to start to trust the operating system to manage its boot process/run-state correctly rather than having it be a direct implementation of your mental model. (I would argue other *nix Operating systems, like OS X, have, to some degree, been doing that successfully for a while, so it's certainly possible - just not clear whether you want that type of behavior on your server systems. I guess time will tell.)
The guy is 24, ambitious and perhaps a bit desperate. Given the choice of call-centre/fast food jobs or a three month grind I would have preferred the boot-camp.

Now the costs are just crazy, for that kind of money you could get a bachelor degree in Europe.
Please do not confuse censorship, which is governmental tampering with free speech, with private moderation of a free message board to whose terms of service you signed voluntarily. This trivializes real censorship issues, which are abundant.
This is amazing. You won't like to hear this, but this guy is probably doing more important work (literally world-changing) than about 95% of Silicon Valley startup employees reading hackernews.
You learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript, a MVC framework, Git, debugging, testing, some basics of product management, some basics of product marketing, in 3 months and they call you ready for a $85k+ job in Silicon Valley with a mid-sized business that lacks the resources to recruit like a big corporation and aren't as picky as a real startup that needs experience and skills.

I'm not a professional sysadmin, but as a developer with a bunch of virtual servers systemd has only made things far easier.

Writing init scripts used to be a real pain, now I can set up a unit file in two minutes and it works...

Maybe there's something to be said for "sysadmins who want to be able to model the entire boot process and run-state in their head" but with correct information about dependencies and so on, I personally think that's something computers are a lot better at solving.

FYI The blade is not made of steel, the iron age started 1200 BC and the rest of the body of the tool is made from silver. And for an encore, it could have been made of steel since steel has been produced for a very long time but the better bet would be for this to be iron from a meteorite which is high in nickel content and so already quite hard and oxidation proof.
training and reconfiguration - and more pointedly B/OSS changes - are generally more expensive (opex) than upgrading equipment (capex)
