The problem is that they keep expanding the list of emails and auto-subscribing everyone to each new one. So LinkedIn really is behaving like a bad-faith spammer. And when I click the "unsubscribe" link in the email, I don't get one-click u

I like the gradient-free white-on-blue version, on the right side of: http://digital.coolspringspress.com/rp_columns_images/images... That one seems to hit all their design objectives while still looking nice.

If you insist on using stimulants such as amphetamine, learn about how to reduce tolerance with things such as NMDA antagonists and take things to prevent neurotoxicity. He should also get on with trying Noopept - it's one of

He buried the lede! In fact, no one has proved that any particular number is normal. However, we do know that almost all numbers are normal. That is, the set of non-normal numbers has Lebesgue measure zero.

So instead of settling the matter early using something like a vesting schedule and then moving on, you're supposed to continually argue about what coefficients to assign to your contributions in some equity formula?

How is this a case for a degree? It's really a case for being educated , a case for studying your field and understanding concepts like "finite state machine". You don't have to go to college to get that, and lots of people seem to get thr

perf trace will show the events associated with the target, initially syscalls, but other system events like pagefaults, task lifetime events, scheduling events, etc. I'm excited.

No, I calculated the error rate for the region. If us-east-1 has 5 times the machines (or availability zones, or routers, or EBS backplanes, or other thing-that-can-fail) as us-west-1, we would expect to see us-east-1 have each type of erro

Yeah, it's got to be much larger than the other regions, so it makes sense that we see more errors. Since error_rate = machines * error_rate_per_machine.

Running Aurora and warning that it crashes "Firefox" is a bit alarmist. Worked fine for me with whatever the latest Firefox Beta is (from ppa:mozillateam/firefox-next).

I bounced without trying it because I couldn't figure out what it was going to actually give me. I would have been more likely to sign up or drag the button to my toolbar if you gave me a sample of what value I would get out of it.

Yeah, I was expecting something on the homepage like a top 10 list of popular tl;drs that I could try out without doing anything else first.

The OS field seems to be lying. It conveniently adds up to 100% but only has entries for windows, osx, and ios. I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, and I'm sure there's a lot of other Linux users here too.

> It is a little sad that they didn't try rebooting the routers for so many hours. This assumes they're being literal and "corrupt" means "a bit randomly flipped" instead of using "corrupt" in the figurative sense of "operator error".

It's actually the opposite; GCC is being ported to C++ because there is actually so much interest in continuing to hack on it. The current codebase is being hobbled in various ways by being limited to pure C. GCC even has a (nasty) internal

This is a pretty decent criticism of git's current UI . The good news is that the core primitive operations underlying git are fine, and all that needs to be done is to create a better UI out of them. There's definitely room to build a gre
