Literally anyone who drives me in their vehicle is required to have this by law. I think this announcement is about Trov, not Waymo.

Why couldn’t they? No/little international pressure to do otherwise and a currency printing press to subsidize back room deals. This is a great strategy for China and it’s utterly insane that we allow this situation to continue.

Let them build. My only opposition is stopping at 6-stories. Populations go up and so should our housing.

On the flip side, attempting to evade situations can cause greater catastrophe. I’d rather they wire up the horn and call it done.

It lets me defer the inevitable Chrome Tab Bankruptcy. But seriously, having a heavy build system with lots of dependencies will easily max out a desktop like this.

Are you kidding? Spying to see if they're violating trade embargoes == Systemic, blatant IP theft from westerners--aided at all levels of the Chinese government and industries? Heh, you're using a throw away account just to go ful

Obviously the FBI and the Chinese Government are equally untrustworthy. Who can truly say that one is worse than the other? /s

Give your data/source to a domestic competitor? Because they would absolutely do that. Be less naive when it comes to China.

Azure in Hong Kong is quite zippy. Even in the depths of inner-China. I was very impressed... and I'd rather host my stuff with Microsoft. I doubt Alibaba would ever care about protecting your data.

I'm not sure Rural and Vegan intersect much. Doubtful this Is the source issue. I'd wager a sedentary lifestyle and stimulants are a major culprit.

The trick isn't to interview well. It helps! But the trick is to have a great referral into the companies.

No, you need to delete the .git folder from your server entirely. Ideally, delete it before you deploy. In fact, don't even put a github deploy key on the server. Deploy binaries. And don't just stop with .git: Delete any folder&#

Redis is great when used as a persistent cache for short-lived + no value data, or data that can be reproduced from another source. If your data, or queued items, have value then find a better tool. But if you're foolish enough to use

What an awful article. Good to know putting Verilog on your resume is a Most Wanted thing! You can put it to use by becoming an intern /after/ you graduate with a CS degree.

What. I've seen issues with Homebrew at every company/team I've worked with since it came out. The solution is always the same: Use vagrant and chef/puppet for your development environment. Meanwhile, apt packages are in

Install a modern Bash and set it as your default shell. When Homebrew updates (which it does automatically now) you might be locked out of your Terminal. `brew --prefix package` returns the latest installable package, and not the version

I've been using a Linux workstation for the past year and actually feel like I could go with a Linux laptop too. I was contemplating Hackintosh but no need. I only miss the Magic Trackpad. Atom + Chrome (with a dozen extensions) makes

Oh sweet jesus. This is erector all over again. The code inside the blocks are uncacheable; it's an expensive novelty. Plus these abstractions always break down. Our job is to build products that meet people's needs. Not to contor
