Can confirm, this is the most fun entry-level car on the market. Sad to see it go - I was actually hoping for a fiesta RS some day

I understand that part. But not the one about the cruise car almost hitting you. So: one lane street, person in front of you turning left, you pass them to the right in the space w…

Not entirely related, but the pain of the "paper cycle" as a "customer" of health-care is real. It seems as if to avoid dealing with hipaa regulation it's all paper, fax machine, a…

Yes, precisely. exp() is the mapping from so(3) to SO(3), so you can use log to go the other way around. Here is the relationship with the other representations [1] Where it become…

Quaternions are a useful tool for manipulating rotations in a lot of common applications. But that wasn't my point here. Also quaternions are hard to grasp by humans. I find axis-a…

Yay skew symmetric matrixes. It's also fun to introduce e as a matrix operator for 3d rotations. It's useful for kinematics and having compact representations for axis angle notati…

Interestingly, you link into a thread where you yourself agree that it would be harder than it sounds.

I thought that too. Just finished a kaggle competition involving segmentation, like a lot of participant I used one form of U-net (my own implementation). You can probably find a l…

Former employee here. Even though we've parted ways quite a while ago I still see CloudFlare as having a net positive impact.

Granted I haven't tried the MX Clear, but so far I prefer the Matias Quiet click over the MX Brown or the MX Blue that I have in other keyboards. They are absolutely a step down if…

I bought and assembled an ergodox some time ago. I found the key layout to be too esoteric for me to adapt my workflows to. The thumb cluster while a good thought is not as well po…

This is my daily driver and I really love it! It's mechanical, split and the layout is really not esoteric. The major upside from the UHK would be total firmware configurability, n…

This is pretty interesting. It would be great if there was a step-by-step guide to check my own Docker containers. Instead of looking like a piece to promote Quay.

That is not fully true. It became a lot more true during 2013, but CloudFlare had already been operating for a few years then. A lot of fairly simple code was retired to the profit…

If whenever there was connectivity the reader pulled of a list of card allowed to unlock the car on that day, and with a lookahead of a few days in the future. Then I think somethi…

I've been using Soulver on mac which does a lot of similar unit calculations, conversions etc. Works with time (but maybe not as advanced) and a lot of other things.

Rewriting the hodge podge of C, Perl and other custom bits of Nginx almost entirely in Lua and hiring its maintainer Yichun in the process where important steps for scaling up the …

In the world of lossy counting. This [1] could be something to look at if you wanted to answer the question "how many requests/secs towards jgc.org at noontime, two months ago" [1]…

The board of directors that would make this decision would have to be a pretty short-sighted one. Most companies that see a lot of traffic, could decide to engage in shady side act…

Yes it's a no-brainer that CloudFlare is in a prime spot to collect a lot of data on the traffic that passes through. However are they going to turn this into an ad-tracking softwa…

Maybe if you use Nginx to replace some of your load balancer appliances to reverse proxy all your traffic, but you are unable to do SSL termination on that box.

By saying this you're implying that it is a school that teaches you only one skill, versus teaching you how to teach yourself new skills. Or that the people who attend such school …

Typical french elitism. Part looking down at "lesser schools", part afraid of a model that might be different and yield better results. Docker comes to mind, as a silicon valley su…
