Upon entering the job market recently, I discovered that no one wants Perl programmers anymore, it's all Python.
After learning the differences in Python (and learning that I'd need to learn both v2 and v3), I started hunting for some of the tools that I use for Perl, like a profiler.
I couldn't find anything that could touch Devel::NYTProf. (Demo of that here) Hopefully this can??
I've had two Intel nics with the same MAC address.
A MAC address is made up of 6 bytes. The first three are the manufacturer so that only leaves three bytes for unique addresses. FFFFFF = 16,777,215 unique addresses.
Some manufacturers have more than one three-byte identifier, but many just re-use. Using a MAC address as a unique identifier is going to give you a lot of false positives.
>> Corporations should exist to serve the public through the goods and services they can provide, making a profit in the process. If they exist solely to make a profit, or generate value for their shareholders, then they really serve no purpose.
One could just as easily argue that for the majority of cases making "goods and services" serve no purpose either. "Serve the public" means a lot of different things to different people.
Back in the DOS days, there was a word processor battle between Word Perfect and Microsoft Word.
The developers behind Word Perfect wanted a small size app that was fast -- it was mostly programmed in assembler.
Meanwhile, Microsoft was programming theirs in C and cranking out the updates and features at the expense of size and speed.
Who won? Microsoft. Why? Because hardware continues to get faster and faster every year. Optimization becomes less necessary.
That trend continues today, but there's another reason for this: The 80/20 rule. Programmers want to program sexy easy stuff -- the 80 part. They don't want to hunt down bugs and optimize -- the 20 part. Companies don't want to pay for the 20 part either.
While you can consume calories, what gets absorbed by the body, and then how it is used by the body varies greatly. I'd love to see tests that count calories before consumption and then check for calories when it comes out the other end.
Bacteria in the gut plays a huge role in this. Here's an example: "Woman Becomes Obese After Fecal Transplant From Overweight Donor" https://www.iflscience.com/hea...
Innovation != Profitable. I wouldn't add that requirement.
Maybe what we need is a squatters type of law. If the IP is really abandoned, claim adverse possession. If the owner doesn't refute by the allowed time, it goes public domain.
The problem with implementing this (without enough backups) for personal is that if you ever lose all of your key info or code generator, you are absolutely fucked because there is no way to prove who you are to Google and have them reset your password / security. So you've got to have multiple backups in different places should your house ever burn down, etc.
QC tattoos make a great long-term backup solution. Preferably under hair -- on a pet.
As a future M3 owner, it concerns me that Elon would admit that he was a "huge idiot" to rely on automation at a time when his company is selling a product that promises to use similar tech for self-driving, If Tesla can't even get their robot's vision system to recognize parts and where to put them in a controlled environment, what are their chances of getting their cars to recognize objects out on on the road and act accordingly?
When people hear the word "audit" what most think of is "tax audit." I.E. someone is coming in to verify that you have documentation to back up the claims made when the taxes were filed. Don't have the documentation? You're in BIG TROUBLE with the law: Jail time + fines.
The type of audit Facebook had is not this. These types of audits do something else:
They make sure that controls are in place -- that the company being audited has working internal methods (internal audits) to catch things -- things like what happened with Cambridge. They verify that the internal audit teams are doing things correctly. It is against the law for this audit team to give them "tips" and to help "cover up" anything -- a different firm must be hired to help with recommendations on how to fix broken controls if they exist. All the audit team can say is "Controls good" or "controls deficient".
One thing these audits definitely don't do is unhide stuff the company wants to keep hidden. If the company doesn't disclose something to the audit team, it won't be seen by the audit team. The audit team is never given privileged access to all the data. For instance if Google is audited, no one is ever going to see the secret juju search engine code.
These audits aren't completely useless however! If Facebook has controls in place to catch these things and the audit team signed off on them, it/highly/ suggests that the company was WELL AWARE of the security breach and let it happen anyway.
The driver had complained about trouble with his car to Tesla before the fatal crash:
"Walter Huang's family tells Dan Noyes he took his Tesla to the dealer, complaining that -- on multiple occasions -- the auto-pilot veered toward that same barrier -- the one his Model X hit on Friday when he died."
If his Tesla has a history of doing something reckless, why would he re-enable it? Why would he also not have your hands on the wheel?
Why didn't Tesla analyzed the data in his car when he reported this to see what was going on? Seems like it would have been a pretty simple check: Did the car attempt to steer the car towards the barrier or not?
For cord cutters, search engines removed the need to memorize this information because a search for the title is enough to get them to the content.
T.V. show production companies are getting the same attention that movie production companies have always had. Who cares if it's Tri-Star, Century 21, or Paramount?
"They say the movie-review site, which forces critics to assign either a rotten or fresh tomato to each title when submitting reviews, regardless of the nuances of their critiques, poisoned viewers against the films before they were released."
I agree with Hollywood. This new way of forcing reviewers to choose good or bad gets two thumbs down from me.
I've built a book scanner from that site a number of years ago and it has worked well enough for what I needed.
The real problem isn't the hardware though, it's the multiple programs needed to process the images and get everything into a small text searchable pdf file afterwards.
To give you an idea, my workflow usually starts by importing all the left pages into Lightroom, process for things like correcting blacks and whites, keystoning, skewing, and cropping, and then I export everything as jpg files. I then repeat for the right pages. This has to be done separately because each camera sees the book from a different angle -- lighting is usually different, keystoning will be different, and even the distance of the camera to the page has to be taken into account for correct cropping. After that, I run a perl script to combine the left and right pages so that they're numbered sequentially, and then finally import into Adobe Acrobat Pro to make text searchable pdf files. I've tried all other OCR software, and Acrobat has them all beat. If there is color in the images the pdf file will be HUGE. I've scanned some of my son's books for school that were in color and attempting to view them on an iPad 3 was folly.
There is a program called Scan Tailor that also helps process images. It does a decent job of finding the borders of the pages for auto-cropping, and attempts to correct skewed pages, however it requires looking through each page to make sure it's found everything correctly. Too often I'll find it crops incorrectly, missing things like page numbers in the corners of the page.
http://scantailor.org/ When I'm looking to make the smallest PDF files possible, I'll use this after Lightroom.
It's apparently an all-in-one solution with hardware and software. The video shows it doing black and white well enough, but I question how well it will deal with color (They don't show any demos of color books). Seemed good enough to purchase (I did so), even if only for black and white, and simpler than the DYI setup I've been using.
Microsoft has two versions of Windows 10 for volume license users: CB and LTSB.
CB (Current Branch) is the same as what the home users have to deal with.
LTSB (Long Term Service Branch) however does things differently.
"For example, systems powering hospital emergency rooms, air traffic control towers, financial trading systems, factory floors, just to name a few, may need very strict change management policies, for prolonged periods of time. To support Windows 10 devices in these mission critical customer environments we will provide Long Term Servicing branches at the appropriate time intervals. On these branches, customer devices will receive the level of enterprise support expected for the mission critical systems, keeping systems more secure with the latest security and critical updates, while minimizing change by not delivering new features for the duration of mainstream (five years) and extended support (five years)."
The only other solution I can think of would rely on setting up a WSUS server, and managing the updates from there. The OP would then just need to change some registry settings on his family's computers to point to his WSUS server for updates.
/Any/ attorney fresh from law school who has taken/one/ course in trademark law would know that there are circumstances where colors can be trademarked. No "army" needed here.
If Sparkfun has an issue with anyone, it would be with the manufacturer of those devices - not the countries that enforce IP laws.
Since SparkleShare uses SVN for storage, understand that it will never be binary friendly. I tried getting it to work with my schoolwork archive and it choked on some of the larger files I had.
If by classrooms we're only talking about lecture halls where the information flows in one direction, then yeah, I could see this possibility. After all, students still need to attend things like labs, exams, and some other types of interaction, right? I could even see some back and forth communication working better online (async vs sync). I think the biggest hurdle isn't technology, but of the inability for many to express themselves (or understanding others) through the written word.
Doing recent research in online schools for graduates, I ran into another problem: professional acceptance. I couldn't find one online law school that is even state accredited, let alone ABA accredited. Without backing from theses types of institutions, technology is the least of their worries.
Even if the schools were accepted, look at the success rate of Concord Law School:
Concord Law School has a 44% pass rate. This is a little bit better than half as good as the/worst/ ABA accredited school. Note that before potential students can even take the real bar, they had to have passed the baby bar too. That success rate is currently clocked in at 14.3%:

Caveats:
Science related degree related to the job
Highly ranked college
The GPA may not say much about success, but in order to be successful, having a high GPA means you at least get to try.
> For example, at Google, once employees are two or three years out of college, their grades have no bearing on their performance.
How many 2.0 GPA hires do you think Google has?

From the study: "further research is needed to assess whether this association is causal."
Also, I didn't know there was a definition for "excessive digital media use."

We should get warning labels for this.

This was a draft document someone whipped up that wasn't used because there were no facts to back it up. It wasn't "hidden", it just wasn't used.
