Anthony here. Happy to answer any questions about how the calling integration works.
No, because it's not a myth. Eating healthy actually does requires a lot of energy & in many cases does cost more. If it doesn't cost more it's because you're going to be taking a lot out of the flavor department & you're going to be investing a lot of time shopping, preparing, storing & tracking costs. There is savings to be had in volume, but volume is hard to achieve when you're cooking for just 1 or 2 people.

Stating that "Italian peasants have been spending much less than $3 a meal for centuries" is silly on many counts. First this article is about $3 a day, not per meal($3/meal x 3 x 30 = $270 per person per month which seems more realistic). Second, you ignore currency inflation & the negatives of being a peasant. It's similar to saying it must be great to be a Chinese peasant because they can get rice for really cheap. Third, Italy is a small country that has a long history of quality food production, there is less focus on quality in the US & more on quantity. The US is a big country and the environment varies greatly from place to place. You might have a great farming community & your city might support farmers markets, but that doesn't mean that everyone has those facilities or even if they do that the products produced are actually cheap.

Part of the problem is that quality food has been relegated into a "gourmet" category which demands a higher price & profit margins than industrialized foods & even those industrialized foods aren't cheap in low volume. You will often see higher quality tomatoes on a Burger King burger than what's at your local supermarket going for $2.99/lb.

This is just a blog article, with one bland meal. I don't know how it even makes a scuff as far as destroying this "myth".
Bought a license of PyCharm and I'm having exactly the same experience as Guido: love the debugger, prefer emacs+screen+ssh for everything else.

I've heard others python guys saying that they have PyCharm for exploring complex repositories and debug things. The problem with emacs is that it's perfect for coding, but not for exploring.
I would get seriously excited about this if I could install it on my own server and keep my own index. I'm a bit hesitant giving them access to all my data to all my accounts, in exchange for a small convenience.

It is pretty impressive, though saying that it launched in February is misleading. I signed up last year, ran into a bunch of problems with it not indexing anything, and haven't opened it since. Now it looks like everything actually has been indexed, which is cool. I'm deleting my account for now though, as it doesn't yet seem easy enough to be useful for my purposes.
Amusing that the best topology for learning in a fast moving and highly experimental knowledge area isn't a top-down or hub-and-spoke, but more of a web...

Perhaps universities shouldn't be teaching "web development" as a class (by the time the curriculum is written things will already start to get stale), and focus instead on "internet-enabled research and collaboration" with web development as a topic?
Some types of meat have great nutritional value but are for some reason overlooked or considered "second class".
Things like chicken/beef/pork hearts, ox tongue (was a rare treat in USSR!), chicken/beef liver are very cheap (like $4 AUD per kilo or even less) and can be eaten without literally anything going to waste (no bones etc.)
Several months ago I lost bookmarks with Chrome sync. I think I did something weird, though, like go from developer-channel Chromium to stable Chrome.
Wanna know a secret? I actually learnt programming on the job.

Way back when all the small businesses were run on MS Access, I somehow managed to get hired at this non tech company and while trying to build some fairly sophisticated management systems, taught myself how to prgram.

Life hasn't been the same since.

My point is dont worry about the past. Code for the future, live for the present.

>Wealth inequality and social unrest in America is DIRECTLY related to corrupt and/or incompetent (you choose) Fed policies. It amazes me why most people do not grasp this. I think it is lack of education.

I'd say it is the intended result of education. Why would you expect a school named after a billionaire to teach you how she is stealing from you any more than a school named after Karl Marx to talk about the problems of socialism.
Really nice, noticed a few jitter issues on the bridge example, that's possibly one of the hardest thing to do in a physics engine (that and fast moving objects).

Hi I'm the person who wrote this example. In fact you don't need to check that stop bits are ones because one is the default: when nothing is being written on the line, it is high all the time. This is why it's just a matter of convention (number of stop bits) rather than a specific pattern.

EDIT: available checks that data is available on a port. If the test is true, then you can read from the port; if you don't read from the port, this is equivalent to an implicit read and data is discarded.
Yes. And that is why statement–expression distinctions are stupid, because they obscure these relationships. In C-land it would be “if-else” vs. “?:”.
Don't think that goes well in a text editor...

India doesn't, and for the life of me can't figure out where the disease disappeared. There are cases and even if the govt is suppressing numbers it's still outrageously nonexistent given the level of normalcy everything has gone to.
This is very cool. Do you have any insight into how many people are spending their own money to buy this theme vs. spending out of a budget their employer might give them? I could see a product like this being a no-brainer purchase for folks who might have, say, $500+ in productivity/gadgetry spend as a perk. I wonder if you could market directly to folks like that.
If you're looking a 20 x 20 x 20 meters of gold (i.e. 8000 cubic meters, not a 20m3 cube) then that's more like 154,000 metric tons.

Which Wolfram Alpha helpfully confirms is approximately equal to the mass of all gold ever mined. There is some contention about this value, the World Gold Council posit 197,576 metric tons (and up to 3000 additional tonnes per year) [1], USGS suggest a cube with 28 meter sides, or 244,000 metric tons [2].

400,000 kg probably comes from 20 cubic meters of gold (386,000 kg).

Are you personally disabled in such a way as to be unable to leave the house to pick up food, or is this an example of woke-washing where you defend exploitative labor practices because they benefit a marginalized group?
There was at least one CP/M machine that used tape -- the Epson PX-8 Geneva (an early laptop that had a built in micro-cassette drive). Although it had CP/M in built in ROM and also had the ability to use ROM cartridges like a game console in order to load applications like WordStar.

Your microwave is probably leaking. I've never had issues with mine and it's a cheap one, so if even a cheap one can insulate against leakage then yours is most likely faulty.
Thanks for your response.

> I think you could stand a chance if you designed your product to fit the limitations of what we can deliver reliably. You'd lose most of your features. You'd ship boring CRUD stuff exclusively on your own dedicated hardware, and you'd build it with minimal library support. It would be excruciating, but people do it. Just not for any of the kinds of software we normally interact with.

I think we are in agreement then. If you are targeting K8S or Electron, you've already lost the battle against many threat-models that matter for liability. I think what you are pushing back against is people imagine bug-free software and they think "oh maybe 4x more expensive and it will look like it's from 2005" while the reality is more like table-stakes of 10x more expensive and it will look like it's from 1980.

I personally think that the tradeoffs are worth it for more industries than currently make it, but I don't think the law can be nuanced enough to both be effective and not cause massive collateral damage to many other industries. Look at the chilling effect regulation has had on software in the medical industry, and yet those regulations seem to have done little to increase the resources required for an attacker who wishes to exfiltrate patient data.
> an AI could only own the copyright of its own work if it was conscious and sentient.

Exactly the point I was making above. And I don't like using the term "AI" for it. Not only it usually simply means the field of study, but intelligence refers to the faculty of the mind, not to the mind itself. If you want to refer to such sentient entity, better to call it artificial mind.
> who said he got a .gov domain simply by filling out and emailing an online form, grabbing some letterhead off the homepage of a small U.S. town that only has a “.us” domain name, and impersonating the town’s mayor in the application.

He also can get prosecuted and potentially jail time for such a gamble.
Using FMRIs for this isn't exactly new, but using this to study people while using apps has some pretty interesting implications. It can give insight to what MAU actually means to users' emotional state, and you could steer users to more fulfilling, positive interactions or addictive ones.

Or analyze people while watching political messaging. Scary/exciting.
That something is inevitable doesn't mean it's not life-changing. A coast-to-coast road network was inevitable once the automobile was a "thing" but you can hardly claim that it wasn't life changing.
Now seems like a good opportunity to shout out Revive (https://github.com/LibreVR/Revive), which allows you to play games intended to be Oculus-exclusive on any VR hardware you like (technically, anything that supports OpenVR).

The VR market is thin enough as it is. Splitting it up into walled gardens is more likely to just kill it than to carve out a monopoly for yourself.
Color me incorrect. I wish them luck with that.
Agreed, that was totally gratuitous and it detracts from the article.
Well, not really. RISC-V is open-source so export controls don't apply so it seems to be more of a theoretical risk right now.
https://www.ucop.edu/ethics-compliance-audit-services/compli...

As for ARM, they initially stopped shipments to Huawei (it was an internal email that got leaked) but since it used less than 25% US-origin technology, US export controls don't apply and ARM could ship it
I think "Indian?" was just V-2 editorializing, the article itself doesn't name the specific country
> Not at all [can one use CPAN]

You are mistaken. See my nearby comment about Inline::Perl5.

> not without major contortions [can one convert].

One doesn't need to convert (due to Inline::Perl5).

That said there can be valid reasons (eg having fun and learning Perl 6) to want to convert existing Perl 5 code to a Perl 6 equivalent anyway. While some partial P5-to-P6 conversion tools already exist[1] (and I'd be surprised if more don't arrive in the future[2]), conversion of a well written Perl 5 module in to a well written Perl 6 module is mostly a manual exercise.[3]

> even basic tasks like defining a function are not the same.

sub foo ($foo, @bar) {
my $qux;
# do something
return $qux
}

This is the same in both languages.

Could you provide some code to illustrate what you mean?

[2] https://github.com/rakudo-p5/v5/ is a project to create a Perl 5 compiler written in Perl 6. It parses Perl 5 code and spits out Perl 6 ASTs. It's obviously not a huge jump for it to spit out straight Perl 6 code. One day...

>...software engineering...

Some of us do not believe that such a thing exists in any meaningful form. In the past every approach to creating reliable software has failed to deliver. That makes it hard to believe that any particular approach is finally the answer.

I agree that the Toyota software is poorly written. That in no way means that conforming to a particular standard or method would of automatically produced software that was more reliable.
I don't know much about Perl, but after seeing "The Perl Jam: Exploiting a 20-year old Vulnerability" from 31C3 it really doesn't feel like it's winning. You don't need to know Perl to have a great time watching the talk (at least I didn't).

I don't know if the talk is any good if you actually do know Perl.

This guy reads a lot of poems and I like his voice:

Yes I know that doesn't answer your question. I've been reading and enjoying John Clare the past few days. One of his poems, read by the guy above, is in this video: https://vimeo.com/121024561 I love the poem and the music but I don't think the footage connects that well.
You adjust the schedule as required and don't do it for projects with tight deadlines.

The truth is if you don't ensure your developers career development is baked into your schedules then you get a combination of high turnover, unmotivated engineers, and engineers who learn on the clock "in secret" by making decisions that are best for them rather than best for the company.

All of these cause far more problems and are harder to account for than being upfront in the first place.
I'm about average in that regard, I think. I have friends who are definitely worse, and friends who are definitely better.

If someone gives me spoken directions, or I read them ahead of time and then don't reference them, I generally do fine. But if I walk around in an unfamiliar area I tend to get turned around.
Ok, a few things.

1. WiFi 6 only improves / reduce congestions when all devices on the network are WiFi 6 only. As soon as you have older WiFi devices, the difference becomes negligible to non-existence.

2. WiFi 6 only improves / reduce congestions when all devices on the network support WiFi 6 OFDMA, which while being officially part of WiFi 6, it was not mandatory. And if you have one that doesn't support it or does not have a firmware updated to support it, read point 1.

3. WiFi 6E will mandate all those optional features that were intentionally missed out on WiFi 6 due to all sort of technical, economical, political reasons. So in realty if you dont have all your devices as WiFi 6E, read point 1.

4. It is not clear whether 6Ghz support is mandated to be certified as WiFi 6E. On paper it seems to be the case, In practice most part of the world dont have 6Ghz spectrum ready. And I am not sure how FCC ( or similar ) clearance will work for a product that are already shipped on the market. Could we get new spectrum support via Firmware update? I am sure that is how US intends to deal with it since Intel are already shipping WiFi 6E product with label that support 6Ghz. I am just not sure if EU, UK, or other part of the world would allow or follow similar route. That has an implications on how fast WiFI 6E could launch worldwide.

5. Finally, there is only so much you can do with WiFi spec. If you have an extremely noisy environment nothing could really help. In an ultra packed City like HK, I could detect at least a dozen AP at any given time.
I never understood why US see the FAANG (except Microsoft ?) as monopolies where they have totally accepted the geographical oligopoly of Telco ...
I would be shocked if even that were true. Well, looks like I’ve got some homework for tonight.
There's a lot of alternatives to google analytics that people are free to use, or build their own systems. Corps are a little evil but the consumers are also evil. Everyone is evil.

the energy utilization of keeping sockets open for every tab, can get out of control quickly. Usually if users are expecting it to (eg multiplayer game, or collaboration apps) that might be fine. But fetching a tiny page and then keeping a socket active just in case 2 hours later somebody goes back and clicks on some link is not so great. Sure one could close the connection and re-open when the user comes back, but again it feels a bit too much for something that simple as websites.

Nonetheless the idea is not bad. I just feel that HTTP/2 with its multiplexing is a nice middle ground and it comes for absolutely free.

It's worth noting that the test is really only to show how much extra resources pagespeed requires. The timeout was set to only 1sec, so in the real world it would go well beyond 60req/sec as timeouts would be much more like 10secs.

Also when loading real pages and not just hitting the server other factors like requesting static assets etc would come into play in favour of pagespeed.
I can't speak for the Atom devs, but JS-based apps that use a browser rendering engine to do UI (node-webkit and similar) are currently the least ugly way to do cross-platform desktop UI development.

Qt is a close second, but it's slower and more bloated and in many ways just as ugly.
There is no reason that components can't share code. It's just JavaScript. Extract common code into libraries, mixins or even components.

For example, we frequently create generic containers that modify the behavior of the child or parent. One example is a container that automatically sets its children to be "sticky" once you scroll past it. Another common parent is one that renders it's children is a modal (lightbox, dialog or similar). Another is a child component that, if you nest it into another, can notify the parent whenever its dimensions change.
Given the current infrastructure, yes, it's impractical.

But a correct infrastructure could be easier to use and an order of magnitude more secure.

And it wouldn't have to be rolled out all at once. I really wish my bank gave me the option of signing in with a private key today.
The site sucks big-time. I've been using it for a while and trying to find someone to do something with, and it's just impossible. The list is exceedingly long, you have NO idea at all what the real skills of the other person is, it's difficult to view the portfolio or so of the other person. You don't even know where the person is located!

It's totally useless, unless you want to just stab in the dark and pick someone. And even if I did that, I have no idea when he put that entry in, when I send him an email he has no idea who I am.

A real co-founding site would need the following features:

- Last login

- Date created

- Skillset of the person, in particular his strongest languages (too many people are just listing a bunch of stuff)

- If the person has to work on his own idea or if he is willing to work on other peoples ideas also

- If the person has money or needs to be funded

- Is the person working full-time or not

- List of all the projects, portfolio and other things the person wants to 'boast' about

And there should be a way to float the best potential co-founders to the top of the pool so everyone can compete for them. Flat lists like this are just not useful one bit. For such skill and talent based things, ranked lists are essential.

HIPAA privacy and security rules are still a significant obstacle for hosting US healthcare applications on third-party clouds.

I wonder if CPU architecture differences have any perceptible impact on user experience.

Very cool idea. I've been wanting something like this for a while, but for my own memories.

I have a pretty horrible memory, and I'd like a simple site what I can email or SMS or enter posts about things I do, or random memories from my childhood. When I get older, I'll wish I had entered them all somewhere.

Privacy would be my main concern - I'd want to permission it only to my wife and children, and maybe a few others. I'd want my data encrypted, so admins can't even see it.

Something like this would also be great for couples - documenting relationships over time and being able to look back on them later. Emails could automatically go out on a certain date every year to remind you of something that happened on that date.

Also important would be getting my memories out. If the system ever went defunct, I'd want my data emailed to me or something.
