Would it offend you if someone asked your daughter, sister, mother, wife or girlfriend to join their team not because of their qualifications, schooling, work experience, etc. but just because they had a vagina?
The Dericam H5xxW series are 720p cameras with built-in ftp and web servers. They cost about $75. You can also hack them. There is no cloud service. And you can turn off the PnP access.

However, if all you want is an excellent "out-of-box" experience, you really won't "own" any IoT device you can currently purchase. They are all remotely managed.

I will remember this to the day I die: People Can't Memorize Computer Industry Acronyms. ;)
I think the age thing is relevant, but more as "everyone has a few early experiences they anchor and way future experiences against". I'll always compare games to pirates, UO, EQ, privateer, d2 and qwctf because they were my seminal games in various categories. Other people will have other games they measure against, whether that be wow, Starcraft, cs, myth, monkey island, syndicate, fallout or whatever you first were captured by.

Lately I've been using the JSON schema format to validate. It's powerful and clean. We've paired it with RAML to validate everything from the URL parameters, POST bodies, response bodies, etc.

So how does this work with the way Facebook delivers content? I understand the advantages of disc storage for a service like Amazon Glacier as the customer expectations are set for significant time and bandwidth constraints but Facebook is supposed to deliver personal data as fast as it can be served up. They've created a "customer" expectation of instant access that can't be provided by an offline disc.

It makes for a good solution as a 2nd or 3rd level backup but you'd need some form of RAID to prevent users from experience a lengthy delay every single time a disk fails. That's a lot of money to invest in a novel solution that creates a lengthy interruption in service should it ever be needed. Maybe the power savings are worth it when weighed against the rarity of such use and expected level of revenue lost to user frustration but that's an equation made fragile by so many variables.

I could also see it used in conjunction with some amazing use-prediction algorithm to store data that will most likely never be requested. If Facebook truly keeps everything then they have millions of photos, videos, hidden posts, and other digital detritus tied up in dead, inactive, or orphaned repositories. I know half the groups I joined back in high school are now impossible to find but the data they contained is still important for the purpose of linking people and interests together. I also have several friends who have passed away, making their account a kind of digital mausoleum. Their private data will never be accessed again but it must remain in FB's datacenter until someone is given access to the account to delete it. The number of Facebook accounts tied to the deceased is only increasing so these racks of Blu Rays might be considered the first digital cemetery. I don't know how many resources are allocated to this kind of data but this is where cold storage makes the most sense.
>I don't get why you use other delimiters for your Clojure code

Do other delimiters mean the same thing as in Clojure tho ? I only know Clojure - in Clojure [] - vector- is a different data structure from () - linked list - which is different from {} - hash map. Is this similar to Racket or is it all just lists in Racket ?
Sublime Text packages are on GitHub
Also: writing good macros is (even) more diffcult than writing good functions or modules.

Writing macros is doing language design and compiler implementation at the same time.

If you've ever cursed the error messages from a C++ compiler, think how much worse it would be if that compiler was written by your co-worker part-time as a side effect of writing rest of the code.

(I wrote clojure in anger for three years with brilliant co-workers)

Sindresorhus AMA
Eh well mine was mostly a hack to index SIP packets. Other existing products just shoved every packet into a MySQL table. One column per field, with indexes. You can imagine that does not scale very well. So I ended up doing similar to what you describe.

Fun how designs converge. You'd think there'd be some generic libraries for this kind of stuff. Now there's LevelDB and its SSTable is sort of close but uses Snappy so it can't operate on compressed data.

What's the common library that implements fast, compressed, immutable key values without lots of per record overhead?

Industry Is Linkedin for Bartenders and Chefs
So is it OK to say, "We want you to join our team to make the world a better place"? I think not.

Ever since I was a kid I tended to hang out with the girls in the neighborhood; I enjoy female company. But hiring should be about fairness. If you tend to hire from the top 25% of the Stanford or Berkeley graduating classes and those sets are 30% female, then by golly, why aren't 30% of your hires female? But if that's not the case, and you're giving more slots to women than there are precentage-wise in the pool of candidates, you're treating someone unfairly who has worked very hard to get where he is.
Fair point. It's at least something they've chosen to represent themselves, however.
I never like to criticize when someone creates something new. But decades of professional experience (having seen this concept come and go repeatedly over the years), taught me that HTML is your friend. I inherited a project that uses this concept, and there is no maintenance. Not because it's stable, but because it's more delicate than a faberge egg, so we never ever ever touch it.

I'm sure for some small projects with very infrequent layout changes, this could be nice to work with. But for any app of sufficient complexity, keep your markup out of your code be it through DOM construction or in string HTML. (React being the one implementation that MAY prove to be the exception to prove the rule, though it's too early to tell at this point).
Making Good Apps Isn't Good Enough
It's a buzzword shift. You can probably just ignore anyone who says it.

I'm not sure exactly what it's replacing, because those words are equally meaningless. As Humpty Dumpty would put it, it means exactly what the speaker wants it to mean, no more, no less. Just add it to the list:

- *unicorn*
- rockstar
- ninja
- diamond
- 10X
- 6-sigma
- Jedi
- guru
- wizard
- unobtainium
...

Excessive focus on supernatural employees reveals that the company, for lack of a better term, fervently believes in magic. By hiring the chosen one, as revealed by the hidden UV-fluorescent birthmark and 10 trials of worthiness, the company will fulfill the founders' prophecy, defeat the competitors, and pay out on all the options. And everyone lives happily ever after.

The article this industry needs is one on how to build an above-median team from near-median employees without wasting any time on bullshit HR fantasies.
Distilled (www.distilled.net) is hiring in London, New York City (NYC) and Seattle WA - all permanent, full-time roles.

We have a whole host of open positions: https://www.distilled.net/jobs/

In particular, we would very much like to talk to digital marketing / SEO consultants in any of our cities.

We recently had an all-hands email thread where the whole team discussed what brought them to Distilled, and why they are still here. It got many great replies (including a number talking about how people's friends had typically had 2-3 jobs in the time they'd been with us), but this one stood out:

"A combination of an informal environment, freedom, and high expectations - I wanted a place where I could be myself and grow doing/learning things that I was passionate about, while having lots of smart people around me to collaborate with in doing so. I came from a huge, strictly regimented and siloed company, and was fed up with being told "that's a great idea, but it's not your job", and Distilled seemed to be the polar opposite."
Then, I guess, the main Maintainer of pool.ntp.org, who explicitely stated¹ that he agrees with Lennart Poetterings reasoning also hasn't read that?

It is a really poor signal how much crap gets flung at the systemd people for this bugreport that is
a) not even a day old
b) entirely inconsequential for anyone but the systemd devs and maybe Google
c) is apparently completely misunderstood and/or misrepresented

One thing that I couldn't understand: if you bother spending your time and effort on a game, why not go for an official server? I know I could afford this, when I was unemployed (bought heavily discounted WoW box in 2008, what an inventive packaging they had - I'll miss that kind of thing in the coming era of digital distribution)

> 1) Go makes this easy.

Correction, Go makes compiling and dependencies easy. It does not provide me with a platform for incremental distribution. If i could `go push v1.0 myapp` and you could download my 1.0 binary from Google? Well, i'd do that gladly.

And in general, we all spend as much time as we're willing to on free OSS. Usually it's for problems we solve, for ourselves. Unless you come to my repo and ask me for a binary, i have no information about anyone who is unable to build the binaries - or what their platform/arch might even be.

Do i build for everything, all the time, on the off chance that some random sysadmin might want to use `curl -O myrepo/bin` instead of `go get myrepo/bin`? I choose not to personally - but if the project gets popular, and there is a legitimate need for people to be able to download the bin, i'd gladly manage it. This is just not the default thing for me to do.

> Most of the people who want to use your app are not going to be other go developers.

In my example, you're wrong there. As i said, I'm choosing to do this because i'm targeting go developers. If i was writing a windows GUI app, of course i would release a binary.

> Versioning your code is a good practice and if there's a hosted binary release somewhere I can rely on it in my docker/config management process.

I'm not sure i follow here. I do version my code. Infact, it's even more versioned than if i used ldflags (imo) - because by injecting the version from Git at compile time, my binary has the version, but my code doesn't. You have to have my git repo, to know what version my code is at.

Moreover, with ldflags, you have to download my binary. You can't simply `go get foo/bar` to get the bin.

I understand your frustration, bins are nice - but strictly speaking from an OSS perspective, there is too much resistance in the process of releasing binaries (to my knowledge).

Perhaps there is a tool to automatically push a binary for a specific git tag to Github?
