I think this is likely the reality. I don't think this is necessarily a community problem so much as it is the reality of software development today. Most developers given the time and resources would probably enjoy making their librar

Health care isn't scarce in most of the first world. Many first world societies offer health care to all of their citizens, and those visiting their country. Much as we view education as a fundamental human right in the United States a

I think this is a great summary. C++11 is a huge leap forward if you can start fresh and/or only target C++11 compatible systems. Personally, I've also been down the road of trying to get older systems (also RHEL6) to run C++11 co

Have we seen similar levels of damage in other cars that carry large battery packs and have been in head-on-collisions? I dont really have any commentary one way or another about autopilot or the safety of batteries, I'm just thinking

Having built programs that used the ffmpeg libraries (as well as x264) I have to say that a tutorial that is up to date and recent like this would have been very helpful at the time. Glad to see somebody is undertaking this effort.

I think its very exciting they were able to get the number of discrete modules up to 26. That's extremely impressive to me given the age and complexity of Java! I went to a talk a few years back from one of the contributors to this pro

I agree with this assessment. We decided to do "kubernetes the 'sorta' hard way" by leveraging the Saltbase installer with some level of customization and full control via terraform of how our infrastructure was being al

I appreciate the responses everyone. Glad to be set straight on some of this stuff.

Great set of resources -- I just went through the process of defining a terraform cluster in AWS over the past few weeks, though I'm leveraging the k8s Saltbase installer for the master and nodes. I'm curious, why no mention of AW

This may be a silly question to ask, but forgive me, I dont know much about EE or battery technology: Its my understanding that current batteries found in mobile phones, laptops, etc make use of rare earth minerals which are limited and exp

Enjoyable read, and I think for any experienced developer there's at least a _bit_ to relate to in there. But seriously, this is why you have an integ/staging environment :) And obviously, better developers.

I loved being an embedded developer. Loved it. I had been out of college for 4 years and thought that the work at startups would be even more exciting. I took a job as a backend developer at my current company because I was really excited a

Agree that swift (and other languages like Rust for that matter) offer some very nice advantages over C++. However, C++ is so well established and has a rich collection of libraries and integrations. You can write a library in C++ and ship

As a developer who used to build systems in embedded C++ and now spends all of my time building web backends in mostly Python, I have to agree with the premise that C++ is becoming more influenced by Python. That's a good thing, I thin

Lambda is great though at handling services that see unpredictable spikes of traffic throughout the day where its difficult to provision quickly. Its also really good at reducing machine-management issues where your software doesn't ut

This is exactly what I thought while reading this. I don't think todays consumers care about that stuff. I think maybe they did somewhat more when we all had the original iPods or napster or whatever, but those days are long since past

Looks like a nice time-saving product. I work on Quill Engage which offers weekly/monthly NLG driven insights for GA and it's nice to see more products getting into this space. I think there's a huge need for better GA report

Yeah, you're totally right. I just went to Comcast's website and it seems like we're basically just getting shafted. I wonder if they adjusted their prices now that RCN is selling 105mbps internet for ~$40-50/mo

Really interesting read. To be honest, I got a little lost around the Scanner implementation portion. Guess its time to take that example and play around with it myself. My one suggestion would be to maybe walk through an example of how the

Same thing in my big town -- Chicago. Some parts of Chicago you get RCN competing, which is amazing. They have 100mb plans for $40 a month. But for most people, myself included, you pay $80/mo for "50mb" internet that really

Freemium is definitely hard. We do this with Quill Engage (quillengage.com) for Google Analytics reporting and it certainly took us a long time to fully understand the workload associated with maintaining a free product while trying to supp

Does anybody have any thoughts on how the hand wave feature works? I'm interested in the OnHub as a Nest owner and potential future developer. I like the addition of Thread and Weave, and the other future-enabled sensors on this thing.

Good luck. It all depends on how enabled your manager is to make a difference. I've had good managers who listen, but I've never had a manager who was actually enabled to make a difference.

Cool that you guys are show-casing your work. I've looked over mosql before. Cool stuff and worth checking out.

It does kind of suck, you could grab a little ethernet hub for pretty cheap, though. Would be nice if it just came with it.

Thats true in a sense, actually. The thing is with H264/H265/VP9, etc dropped packets or missing data is somewhat acceptable as long as you have a key frame. You just end up with interpolated or 'guess' data (aka the dro

Motion JPEG isnt resilient. H264/H265/VP9, etc all build on some of the ideas that JPEG introduces, but introduce features that allow for the stream to be resilient to dropped packets or frames. Its a cool idea, it just doesn&#x27
