And huge codebases have many bugs, because the effort to keep them without minor bugs is just not worth it to anyone unless
From this statement, I know what your code looks like, and I hope that I never have to work in it.
I invoke upon you every insult of wrath ever to have been uttered from the mouth of Linus, oh bug producer.
This kind of stuff is depressing. You'd like to say, "Oh, the programmers are doing the best they can," but when you have an open bug list that looks like this, you can't possibly ensure that your code is secure, not even close. That kind of codebase is like a playground for hackers.
The hop-on, hop-off style is an interesting method, and works for normal healthy people but not for people with disability, children or elderly people.
It's a horrible idea. People will jump off the bus in the middle of traffic, and jump on in the middle of traffic. People will be getting themselves killed.
"we as a startup of our size cannot spend 30-plus percent of our resources on things that take ten years," and that "there's some time frame that we need to be generating an amount of revenue that covers expenses and (that) needs to be a few years."
This is what the onset of an AI Winter looks like.
I work 40 hours a week, 8-5, Monday-Friday./quote.
that's not 40 hours, just an FYI. No wonder you find regular expressions interesting technology, they're more difficult than multiplication.
Fortunately, California has a referendum and initiative system, which lead to...Proposition 11 [ballotpedia.org] and gave Californians the California Citizens Redistricting Commission.
Which is a cool idea, but in practice the parties in charge merely stacked the commission with people on their side.
In addition, I would posit that it is also impossible to classify EO's written in the current age into being good or bad
I'd love to see you defend that position. This guy definitely classified EOs. Why would you say it's impossible to do what he did? What sort of information do you think we'll get in the future that will make it easier?
First just give me a USB slot so I can download the update and apply it myself OUT OF BAND. no I will not pay a monthly fee for my car to have internet access, they can go fuck themselves if they think I will be paying for that.
Companies like Qualcomm have been willing to provide this kind of service for over a decade now. Since it is low-traffic, it will be cheap enough that it won't cost anything to the end-user, and since it will probably be cheaper than doing the updates manually, it will probably save money to the manufacturers too. (As another example, see the Kindle, where books are downloaded automatically and free when you buy them).
The problem is that the quality of software being put into cars has been decreasing. That isn't something you want to mess with, you want to make sure it has close to zero bugs.
Being able to push OTA updates will only encourage managers to declare projects done then fix things later. The threat of a recall like an invisible hand encourages car companies to try extra hard to get it right.
Furthermore, there generally isn't adequate protection of critical systems from those that are provided for the convenience of the passengers. Those systems generally aren't very secure
So Republicans are manning the shit-cannons against a judge they themselves admit is perfectly well-qualified for the position, a judge they themselves praised and recommended, and they can't even explain why they are doing it... and their irrational behavior is somehow Obama's fault
Their behavior is entirely rational. They think they can get a 'better' nominee if a Republican becomes president (I don't know if they're right: I have no idea what kind of judge Trump will choose).
Doesn't Obama know only white presidents get to nominate supreme court justices?
Now you're not thinking. Obama nominated two of the currently sitting justices.
They don't have to be the majority party to do that. It is possible, and rather common, for the majority and minority parties to gerrymander at the same time to cement what they already have.
That's true, that's what's happened in California.
It would be better for the content providers if they could just shut off ads and find another way to pay for creating their content, but no one wants to reach into their wallets and pay money to do so.
Google contributor is an attempt to do that.
Personally, I've found that for most websites, when they complain about my ad blocker, I realize I don't really want to go there anyway. My time has been saved for better things.

I really don't like Nuget, as package management systems go, it's a real pain. And it's not just me saying it, this guy admits it has problems too.
(You're right though, it definitely has changed things in Microsoft shops).
I'll feel like "we won" when Windows is about as popular as IE.
They cost between $5k and $30k. Microsoft is making billions off them. They have already made their money back.
Anyway a lot of the patents expire by the end of the decade, so it becomes a smaller and smaller issue.

Android was already gaining marketshare by 2008
In 2008 Windows CE had 27% of the smartphone marketshare, believe it or not.
So it begins: it wants revenge.
Yeah, some zoos the animals seem content and happy. And living in the wild isn't all that great, really.
The robots they've built are really quite nice looking. If you haven't seen the video, you should check it out.

We're not against OTA updates, we're against low quality software. Needing updates is a symptom (ie, not 100% certain) of low quality software.
It would be a shame for your pandora to permanently stop working because of an API change.
That's opening a box of problems, man.

Exactly.
Better buy a car before then.
You can also try the optimally compact method. There are actually several reasonable algorithmic ideas for choosing districts.
You can be sure that whichever of those algorithms is chosen, it will be the one that most benefits the party in office at the time it is chosen.

That's true, that's what's happened in California.
The problem is, when the "other party" gets enough power to re-draw the district lines, they will gerrymander them in their favor.
