Can someone edit the title? Ray Ozzie doesn’t ring any bells and the title of the page is “The Notecard makes cellular IoT developer-friendly. Finally.” So the current title is already editorializing.

This kind of scale would require establishing factories all over the world. Every feasible region in every developed country.

Agreed, many people simply don’t have the time to do hosting as a hobby. Me neither - I chose a family and a music hobby. But that’s not really relevant to the GP’s argument “your time is money”, though. My point is, only my working time is

In the civilized world, we have 8-hour work days, some of the days of a week, and then we can do whatever we want with the rest. By which I mean, most people do not see the remaining hours as “potential money making time” but as “this is wh

Law in many countries allow the justice system to confiscate items used to perpetrate a crime. Like a car used in a getaway, or a gun used in a murder (regardless of if it was legally owned to begin with). Sweden even allows the state to c

I wouldn’t call this a hit piece. I have fond memories of this from when I was 13, but reading through his critique I find myself nodding and agreeing with every single point. That biking fight sequence in the canyon was incredibly annoying

Considering the inclusion of Pandas in the book, I doubt manager types and econ guys are the target group. IMO, engineers would be the ones interested in applying Python to Excel work (because they realize how ridiculous VBScript is), and t

You don’t, unless the teaching staff decide to include a lot of numerical work in exams. Which I don’t know why they would do. I would presume that a calculus course would teach you algebraic methods that you work out on paper. In Swedish e

Sometimes. A previous employer of mine fired a colleague for breaking his leg in a football game. Well, actually, they fired him for calling in sick with a supposed fever and going off to play football. The broken leg was just a smoking gun

Exactly. Each of these algorithms’ beauty comes from understanding them. And reading the original paper is probably the best way to understand and appreciate them. I guess this site is trying to sell Julia a bit, by showing how close it loo

Nope. Peer review is a kind of quality filter (in theory but seldom in practice), but that does nothing to solve the question of “is this a paper worthy of publishing”. That question gets resolved by the publisher/editor of the journal

I’m saying I don’t agree at all with the linked transcript, particularly the part you quote. I don’t think this person has a lot of insight into the minds of non-religious people. The part of your post reading “ agnosticism is more diametri

It’s a common trope that atheism is a form of belief. It’s nonetheless misinformed. It’s often trotted out by people who have a religious belief and are unable to comprehend that large numbers of sensible people are able to exist without ho

You clearly need to get to know some atheists. I recommend you do some traveling in Northern Europe. You’ll find half the population are unbelievers and yet they are all basically decent people.

IIRC, EEC memory can correct for single-but flips. It can detect/warn/fail on double-bit flips. And it can not detect triple-bit flips. This might be a simplified understanding, but if this has happened only once, that seems to ma

You’re assuming they don’t store a time stamp with the DB entries. It would be fairly trivial to filter out the 5000 fake entries that all arrived within a minute of each other.
