One thing not mentioned, that I think will be adding to their legend toward the end of the year is the release of Smash Bros. Ultimate. Smash has always occupied an interested space, Nintendo intended it as fun-for-the-whole-family type of

This is what people don't seem to get, exploding messages aren't an airtight solution to the risks of sharing sensitive information with someone. You're always taking a risk when you do that. Exploding messages change the def

Pachyderm's pipeline system covers much of the same functionality as Airflow's so there's generally not much reason to use both.

Thanks for the plug saamm, I'm one of the creators of Pachyderm. I think Torus and Pachyderm would work very nicely together. You could go straight from developing code in the image Torus provides to deploying it on Pachyderm as a pr

Well Linus says that he's not against the code but the reasoning in the original post and I think his whole point is that neither of those arguments are good reasons to make a change. He doesn't specifically mention CLang, so I&#x

What makes you think Linus would be more effective if he used a different tone? That seems like a tough argument to win given how tremendously effective he is. It doesn't seem like an exaggeration to me to say that Linux is the most su

It's also particularly weird that Obama enacted it 2 days before he left office. Presumably it didn't take 8 years for him to decide it was a good idea, maybe he was holding out hope on passing it through Congress the real way, bu

Another thing the article doesn't mention at all: if it is true that by not letting these entrepreneurs in we're missing out on half of >$1B companies then we should expect some of the countries these entrepreneurs are leaving

If you listened to the full remarks I certainly don't fault you for applying any assumptions you have in interpreting them. Assumptions are absolutely necessary. I'm just saying don't let the media's assumptions be your

Another article that purports to passively observe a phenomenon while, in my opinion, actually playing a role itself. > A RUDE but incoherent comment by President Donald Trump last week revealed the damage partisanship has done to Americ

This looks to be the beginning of the "extinguish" step from Google. They've executed the embrace, extend, extinguish playbook to a T with Docker.

Yup, corrected above.

Ahh, right you are. That is an important distinction. Still, it seems a little odd to me that it results in the same thing and is treated differently. What if a government asked Facebook to ban someone and they complied, is that Facebook do

Commented above as well: Case law would disagree. Here's a case where the Supreme court ruled that Facebook banning someone was a violation of their first amendment rights. [0] Salient quote: "Foreclosing access to social media al

Surely that must mean that Twitter banning people is also a violation of the first amendment, since that prevents them from accessing the same "public square" this ruling is protecting their access to.

I've been thinking about the idea of USG moving to BitDollars for a while here. I think Sam touches on some of the smaller potential benefits here, particularly the potential to have built in tax system. But is completely missing some

I'm the founder and a core developer of Pachyderm so I can weigh in on how it compares (there is, of course, some potential bias here). I also was at Airbnb around the time we released Airflow, so I got to see it being built up close a

Why does this make you kick yourself? This is a guy writing an internet rant about how frustrated he is with the life you choose not to live.

My thoughts exactly, and the article even acknowledges this up front: only 0.91% of start-ups end up raising from angel investors and only 0.05% from venture capital firms. The only lie here is the lie our every member of our generation tel

These 2 things are related. Google punishes sites behind paywalls which is why doing a google search for an article is normally a good way to get by the pay-wall. WSJ has decided they'd rather take the punishment, so their site is lowe

I don't think Hamilton was quite thinking of the duel as a way to stop this plot. For one thing the timeline doesn't quite match up there, the duel happened in 1804, the conspiracy seems to not have come to light until 1806. Maybe

Thinks what's normal exactly? That not all of his employees get paid an equal amount? I'm inclined to agree that he thinks that's normal, yes. Given that it's true at almost every company in the world, that seems like a

I think people are seeing the risks of people creating fake videos but there's another risk that I think is being overlooked. As convincing fake videos become a reality and articles like this inform the general public of that reality i
