tebruno99··on Third-Biggest U.S. Coal Company Files for Bankruptcy
I like how stories like this always leave out corruption and mismanagement of the mines themselves. Mines are a hot spot for upper management and owner corruption.
tebruno99··on Generics aren't ready for Go
Been using Go for 4 years. I totally agree. It sucks to have to use your brain to think about alternative ideas on how to do something. However, I’ve come across much much better solutions to my problems than I would have if Go offered a crutch to my flawed thinking.
tebruno99··on Don't name your variables after types:you wouldn’t name your pets “dog” or “cat”
I disagree. I don’t want to have to hunt around for the definition of users to know how to use it. Yes the compiler will throw an error, but that doesn’t help me when I’m typing code.
tebruno99··on Nobody Cares About OAuth or OpenID Connect
I kinda feel like this was on the right track but then it turned into, let me sell you something.
tebruno99··on Stop using JWT for sessions (2016)
"You cannot invalidate individual JWT tokens"

This is not exactly true. There are lots of things you can do to expire tokens. For instance, every JWT has a creation date stamp so you could say on the server side all tokens created before Time.Now() no longer accept as valid. Allowing users to expire ALL tokens, etc.

tebruno99··on x86 finds its way into the iPhone
In the closed box that this chip is in, as long as it meets power usage spec then it doesn't really matter what Arch it is. Not sure what the big deal here is other than some personal bias the author has against x86
tebruno99··on Why JWTs Suck as Session Tokens (2017)
When you hit a critical size your database can no longer handle the throughput of the lookups. You'll then install memcache or some other tech and the stack JUST FOR handling the tokens is a majority of your datacenter load.

Most startups and projects never hit this size, they usually fold before that level of growth. It is much lower than one would assume though since every request made to an API has to do the lookups etc.

tebruno99··on GPU Headaches: Notes on Installing CUDA, CuDNN and Tensorflow on Manjaro
CentOS is based on a stack that is nearing 5 years old so that makes sense. The driver world (even mesa itself) has matured greatly since then. Mesa and Nvidia even have libraries now that help them coexist instead of replacing/overwriting library files.
tebruno99··on GPU Headaches: Notes on Installing CUDA, CuDNN and Tensorflow on Manjaro
Yeah, not sure why you would be in Grub for Nvidia graphics drivers. This whole thing seems pretty odd to me since I've not seen a Nvidia driver problem in several years. Was he trying to use like Ubuntu 12.04 or something.

Manjaro is a great choice and it does "just work" the best. All the others work just fine though.

tebruno99··on Six Months at Riot Games
I know my interview with Riot was more like a freshman college hazing. At the end they setup a 2nd call and I was like wtf. They said they were just testing me to see if I could handle the culture and that I passed so I can move on to the next interview. I told him to diaf and never contact me again.

I'm male, I can't even imagine what its like for Women.

tebruno99··on Wkhtmltopdf Considered Harmful
Harmful? I don't see it hurting you in anyway and if you don't like the OpenSource project don't use it. This is stupid.
tebruno99··on In Praise of Theory in Design Research: How Levi-Strauss Redefined Workflow
This is only if you hold them as individual items outside the context of the system. These utilities are an engineered solution as a whole. Look how they work together and interact with one another.

If you break an engineered system down into its components and never consider all the ideas and fabric that link them together in an engineered system, you could reduce anything to bricoleur.

tebruno99··on The State of Atom's Performance
1.6G to .6G memory reduction is great. It’s a shame that most editors use 4-50mb
tebruno99··on HTML 5.2 Recommendation
here is an idea, how about the w3 go to hell after selling us out on DRM.
tebruno99··on Go, don't collect my garbage
If you can't figure out how to tune 1 documented option in Go to fix this issue caused by this one specific use case (which he did figure it out and it was resolved).. Then you're probably not using C either.
tebruno99··on Mathematical games interesting to both you and a five-year-old child
I work for a company that makes Math games based on neuroscience research. https://www.mindresearch.org

I find a lot of the games very interesting and founded more on actual learning (you're encouraged to make mistakes in this program). Turns out to learn you need to make mistakes and see why you were wrong, more than simply answer correctly.

tebruno99··on I fell in love with an assassin (2008)
Everyone is of course titled to their own opinion but for me personally I feel like Love doesn't mean what this person thinks it means.....
tebruno99··on O’Reilly Media has stopped retailing books directly on its ecommerce store
They are also gambling that they are worth it and that you can't live without them vrs the competition. Which now with DRM only option, the competition just moved into first place.
tebruno99··on O’Reilly Media has stopped retailing books directly on its ecommerce store
I've cancelled my Safari subscription and moving everything over to Apress. This is definitely a very sad day. I own every O'Reilly book ever published DRM Free and still had Safari, but never again.

Apress, Informit, and Packtpub you are now #1, BE #1, stay customer first.

tebruno99··on How Torch broke ls and made me vulnerable
So I'm less concerned about Torch and more concerned about GNU ld adding things unexpected. This sort of "magic" shouldn't occur.
tebruno99··on iPhone 7
I have 2x Dodge Caravans 2005, and a 2000 Miata. Luckly the vans have AUX ports along with the mid-vehicle 6 disk dvd player. No usb, bluetooth, or tape deck.
tebruno99··on iPhone 7
Yes, I have the lightning cable come up in the middle of the bed and place the phone between my wife and I's pillows. I then route the headphone wire around my pillow and up the top so that when I fall asleep and it falls out it will be pulled back behind the pillow and I won't sleep on it. If I roll over i switch ears (only 1 ear in).

She requires complete silence to go to sleep ;)

tebruno99··on iPhone 7
My wife won't let me sleep with the speaker, so I've adapted to have 1 earbud in depending on which side I want to sleep on. It eventually falls out and tomorrow I seek to the last place I remember in the book and repeat ;)
tebruno99··on iPhone 7
I just ad the Bluetooth convo with a friend and there seems to be this assumption that "most cars that people buy have bluetooth" but it just doesn't stand up very well when you look at what cars offer bluetooth in their base trim.

http://cars.axlegeeks.com/d/f/Bluetooth

yes, there are 11 pages but if you click on say Dodge and filter by 2016 you'll find only 3 high end vehicles with base trim on bluetooth. This means people actually need to choose Bluetooth which sounds crazy to us why they wouldn't but most people have no idea.

tebruno99··on iPhone 7
The adapter doesn't allow you to charge. So older cars can't Music+GPS+Charge which means you just have a dead phone when you get where you are going.
tebruno99··on iPhone 7
I'm not even upset about the headphone jack. Whatever. I'm really upset because you won't be able to do the following:

1.) Audio+GPS+Charging in non-Bluetooth Car.

2.) Listening to music at desk and still have enough charge for the Audio+GPS for the drive home.

3.) No more listening to music/audiobooks as I fall asleep because in the morning the iPhone won't be charged for my desk usage the next day unless I wake up and plug it back in during my sleep.

They can do whatever they want with the headphone jack, but pretending like we don't need to plug the phone in!! Thats daft.

tebruno99··on Rethinking PID 1 (2010)
Yeah, not much "rethinking" going on here anyway. Thought this was going to be something actually valuable not "doing exactly what PID 1 is already suppose to do"
