I clicked on the most obvious button, "Teachers click here", and then the most obvious button on that page, "Start Lobby Now", and got a "Page not found".

To be fair, I'm completely sober and you haven't paid me $50, so maybe that's why it didn't work.
So all in context, it sounds to me like you're saying that what sets Sublime Text apart from Emacs is simply that it uses a familiar user interface. I suppose that's fair enough.

What I wouldn't say is fair, though, is characterizing something as incomplete and especially improper simply for being different from what you're used to.

I like the CloudFormation bit - I think I'll give that a try. I wrote a book on how to setup your own VPN in AWS for overseas streaming (step-by-step) but using the OpenVPN AS appliance.

Everyone's mileage and needs are different but OpenVPN is probably a better choice over PPTP & L2TP for security and speed - at least in my experience. www.virtualjj.com if you want to take a peak of what I did.

> If pointers are magic O(1) values

Um... pointers are O(1) size. Usually either a fixed 32 or 64 bits.

> then you don't get an asymptotic size advantage.

I even said that! I specifically said that it's still O(n) upper bound, but that the expected case is lower than that.

Though to be fair, I should have written Ω(m) instead of O(m) when discussing the lower bound.

> using n as the sum of the sizes of all the elements is

1. I didn't say it was normal; just that in this case, that's what it was referring to.

2. It is though! Worded another way, n is the size of the data being stored.
Cubics cannot translate perfectly into quadratics, no. You can estimate a set of quadratics to build what appears to be a cubic, but they're not identical at any arbitrary resolution.

Quadratic bezier curves, unlike cubic ones, do actually map really well onto GPUs (given their basis on triangles) quite unlike what you've said here.
> Well, there is the metric system for one.

Thus proving my point. The US government has on multiple occasions attempted to propel the metric system into dominance in the United States, hand has consistently failed every time.

And yet my iPhone still has has a proprietary charging port.
But, while trying to avoid the semantics arguement, their profits depend on their advertising, which depends on search qualtity. By keeping search qualtity high they are passing over small, short-term profits for long-term ones. Yes the main idea is keeping users happy somthey stick around, but they aren't doing it because they love their users theyre doing it to make a better business.
Indeed, the first edition is draggy at the beginning. The second edition is meant precisely to dive right in and get cracking, without sacrificing any principles. I recommend people read the second edition instead of the first one. [Why should you trust me? My name's on the cover. <-;]
> the refresh button disappeared in the latest Firefox (v84.0.2)?

Well that's just... terrible UX. Surely there's a setting to enable it again?

> still 404s 80% of the time... looks like a similar problem that Twitter has been having for months (sometimes it says "content is not available to you" unless you refresh).

Sounds to me like a CDN problem in both cases. Content not propagating and possibly not being cached correctly at the endpoint you're trying to use until you refresh a few times.

Just a guess mind, but a relatively informed one since I've had similar issues on my own sites that usually require CDN cache invalidation to fix.
With respect to personality, I believe that there are likely a number of independent factors, perhaps hundreds, that affect in some way where one’s position lies on each of the axes of personality. These factors could be particular childhood traumas, birth order, parent’s behavior/addiction, childhood friends, and genetic factors. Even if each of these numerous random variable is binomial the central limit theorem applies.
> Market-focused rhetoric over the past decades has made it tempting to think we can just allocate payments the right way to accomplish what we want. This is one case where that fails. Instead, we need leadership.

No, we don't. We need a system at rewards good behaviour and punishes bad. The market solution is really the best. A solution bound on a single leader vanishes as soon as the leader goes.

> It matters who we elect.

Things were bad during Obama's reign, as they were under Trump. Biden won't bring change, unless systemic change will be implemented.
Actually the ultimate reason why a note has value is that it can be used to settle tax bills and other debts, so you do not have to "hope" that someone out there will take it -- the government behind the money will take it from anyone who owes taxes, which is almost everyone who lives or does business in the country.

If the Qur'an were the subject of the scholarship the Bible has received, or even allowed criticism without the threat of death there will be nothing left of it, with all due respect.

In many parts it's a poorly reasoned commentary on stories in the Bible (sometimes way below the level of some apocrypha that have been summarily debunked with little work). So the doubt shoe is on the wrong foot. I can go on and on about how the legitimacy of the Qur'an is inextricably bound to that of the Bible (at least the Law and the Prophets) so that every poverty shown by the Bible is at least a double blow to the status of Qur'an as inspired recitations.
One of the values of bitcoin is the price miners get for it. If they lose money on selling their newly minted bitcoins they won't sell. So it's related to power prices, the difficulty of mining a new coin.
I got "No API resources availble for null group".

I'd love to try this if you get it working.
21,000 is actually higher than I thought. Very roughly, the average kid has a 0.5% chance of being abducted by a stranger by the time they are 18. That's much higher than I would expect, I personally don't know of anyone who was ever abducted by a stranger as a kid. But maybe it's happened more than I know, it's not something people will generally talk about.
I'm willing to bet that if you'd pitched them with your online education video site you'd have got a interview :-)
I get an error message (from the actual app, http://browserling.com/) - "No API resources availble for null group" (seems to be no matter which Browser/Version or URL I choose).

I'm using Chrome, as requested.
Great idea and I look forward to using this.

There appears to be several issues to work out. I've not been able to get a page rendered. I get "Nexus is down. Try again shortly." "No API for group null" and "You are not signed in!" when I am signed in.
Your explanation is for a fantasy-land. Studying honestly in many AP classes comes down to cramming. Here's how Semiapies summed it up in a comment in this thread:

"In high school and particularly AP, those courses are blatant cycles of 1) cram, 2) test, and 3) forget all but the core of what that section was about.

(If you want to say, "You should learn it all for the final" keep in mind nobody does, nor are final exams built around remembering everything from the whole course.)"

--

It's not like the crammers are even bad kids. A lot of them have no choice because if they didn't study that way they wouldn't have enough time to study and will end up getting worse grades.

This would mainly show people that the world screws you over and people who are part of crappy systems will go ahead and screw you over on top of the crappy system. I see little fairness in this situation.
Cool! However, I'm seeing an error: "No API resources available for null group".
Sounds quite similar to the serial number format used on Apple products until recently. First 2 characters were the country / factory of manufacture, 3rd digit was the year, 4th and 5th were the week. The next three were the machines actual unique serial number, and the final three were a model identifier.

Seems to be pretty common to store this information in "plain text" in the serial number. I'm sure it has advantages over just giving every product a UUID and having a lookup in a database somewhere, perhaps in doing product recalls - you can specify a range of numbers that are affected?
I most strongly disagree with 2. and 3.

The person who wants the end result gets to agree to the other person's policies.

If your employer wants your device to have email then they get to agree to your policies about your phone. [Edit: except for the big point that this is impossible with current iPhones and Exchange servers].

If you want your phone to have access to your ecompany email then you get to agree to their policies.

I wonder if you'd feel the same way if, say, your identity was stolen because your home network was compromised by a zero-day exploit in whatever browser you are using to read Hacker News and a data-stealing worm sneaked in. I'm sure you're aware of the theoretical risk of that happening, and you chose to connect to the Internet anyway, so I guess you've accepted the consequences, and anything bad that happens will be your fault rather than the malicious attacker's.

My response: Oh shit, now I have to deal with identity theft.

Your response: Let's legislate to forbid providing internet browsers unless the browser provider and ISP can guarantee this can't possibly happen because it's not reasonable for me to audit their code. Let's legislate websites to forbid access unless they can guarantee this can't happen. How could they be allowed to let me on their website without forcing me to consult expert legal advice and have big neon sign warnings about what an accident on their website might do to my computer?!

I would agree with you if you were talking about coal miners or supermarket checkers, but the one guy was a dentist and the other guy was a banker. Even 80 years ago, dentists and bankers made more than three times as much money per year as regular people. If they couldn't retire after one-third the normal career length, maybe the fault was not in their stars, but in themselves: perhaps a failure of frugality?
I am sorry but don't force your premise down on me. Choosing life over death is for thousands who commit suicide not such a simple question.

Besides her actions being obviously wrong (no man exist in isolation) she is also showing a very poor understanding of basic evolutionary theory. You can't prescribe anything based on evolution.

Life expectancy in Nigeria is 47. In Afghanistan it's 44.

Nigeria has 3% adult HIV seroprevalence. Afghanistan, 0.01%.

18.8% of Nigerians die before reaching five years old, and 23.5% of Afghans.

Nigeria's HDI is 0.511, putting it at rank #158 out of 182 countries. Afghanistan's is 0.352, #181.

Which numbers are you looking at? Nigeria looks better off, but not far better off.

I mean you could have been an experienced user of say Cold Fusion, then spend 6 months living on a beach in Thailand and when you come back the industry is shifted to PHP.

As an analogy, think of the Swiss watch industry. There were people there with 30 years experience with the most intricate mechanical devices in the world. Didn't help them one little bit when the Japanese invented the quartz movement, the skills just weren't transferable.
Is this an intellectual exercise? Hmmm, how about large when consider by Economic Efficiency (as measured by output / land use)?

GDP / Land mass.

UK: ~8,780,428 ( 2,139,000,000,000 / 243,610 ) [1]
US: ~1,450,745 ( 14,256,000,000,000 / 9,826,675 ) [2]

Both end up being considered massive in comparison to my "piddly" little country:

You're not sending more packets, but slightly larger packets - as the article says, even 120 frames of data takes up 90 bytes. When, even with extreme repetition, you're sending single digit kilobytes per second over the Internet, it's unlikely that your stream itself is substantially contributing to congestion, unless you have some completely broken/saturated link that nobody wants to play on anyway. (One might want to send enough bytes per frame that such a buffer would start to bump up against packet size limits, but 120 frames is ridiculous. I'm not even sure where he got it from, since 60 * 5 seconds timeout = 300, not 120 - and you don't really want to time out after 5 seconds, since transient total outages happen when accidentally going out of range of a Wi-Fi network or whatever. Layer the opportunistic resending on top of a TCP-like slow resend mechanism for the worst case, and then there's no point sending each packet more than a handful of times.)

I implemented opportunistic resending last year for netplay in a branch of the Dolphin emulator. The target audience was a group of people playing a fighting game (Super Smash Bros.) at a semi-high level, so it was essential to keep latency to an absolute minimum. Even a few frames of lag is enough to substantially impede high level play (might be mitigated by prediction/rewinding if I ever implement that, but since fighting games are based on very quickly responding to others' actions, there's only so good it can get); the 100ms from the article, for example, would be totally unacceptable for anything serious. Even if it were feasible to implement client-side smoothing in an emulator, it would still be much superior to actually get the real data in time.

The question is then whether packet loss is common/significant enough in practice that opportunistic resending's effects are visible in any significant way. For Dolphin, the main advantage of using UDP over TCP is actually NAT traversal, so there is no reason not to do it, but it would be nice to know whether it helped. Unfortunately, I don't have data here: I didn't include code to explicitly record packet loss statistics or anything, and I haven't had the time to actually clean up the code enough to promote it to master, so there aren't many people using it anymore. Anecdotally I implemented opportunistic resending, there was feedback that it was a noticeable improvement; there would certainly be some confirmation bias in there, but the feedback was positive enough to convince me it was likely a real effect. They didn't necessarily have to be losing a lot of packets; as the article mentions, with TCP a single packet lost makes you wait something like 2*RTT, which is certainly noticeable if your input buffer is set to the lowest possible value that produces smooth play under normal conditions.
OP was trying to keep their framework small and avoid a build step, both of which (especially the latter) would preclude the use of a DSL like JSX. Are you suggesting another approach other than function composition?
NASA was the program manager for the Apollo program. You don’t think NASA actually built the rockets or the various modules, do you?

NASA doled out public money to prime contractors for various pieces of the program (North American, Grumman, Rocketdyne, Douglas, IBM...) and the primes subcontracted various pieces as they always do.

This is not to understate the tremendous engineering effort of organizing such a huge program, but it’s not like this achievement was done by a bunch of government workers alone.

XMPP has issues on Android and iOS: the app needs to be running and connected to the server at all times to fetch new messages. iOS explicitly disallows this from what I understand, and on Android you are at the mercy of your OEM's battery optimizations unless you specifically keep the app running by pinning it or if the app has persistent notifications. Either way, not something that is easy to explain to normal users, meaning pain points arise very soon.

Matrix is a little more promising, but Element (at least on matrix.org servers) is slow, especially at scale.

There are Windows tablets at that price range that can run office. Not idea if they can run Minecraft, considering its a horribly unoptimized java application.

The HP Stream 7 and 8 has an x86 1.8ghz atom chip in it. BYOK. The Stream 11 has a keyboard but chimes in at $199. Games using DirectX and native libraries work. There are a lot of Stream 7 and 8 youtube videos showing gaming performance.

If anything, the Chromebook is overpriced. It really should be a $49 near disposable laptop. Even then, in the age of cheap tablets, it may not be more than an education market novelty.

August 6: bombing of Hiroshima

August 7:

1. Japanese nuclear scientists determine that the bomb was indeed nuclear device.

2. Imperial Navy estimates that US has only one or two more bombs and Japan could endure the attacks.

August 9:

1. bombing of Nagasaki

2. USSR declares war to Japan & Manchurian Strategic Offensive started.

3. Hirohito worried because USSR declared war and held an Imperial conference that authorized minister Tōgō to surrender with only one condition: status of the Emperor must be preserved.

August 15: Japan Surrenders

Even after Hirohito made the personal decision to surrender, the intention was to continue the war if the kokutai (Imperial institution and national polity) would not be preserved.
If you have knowledge both in biology as a physician and can code, you can also become a bioinformatician, where you can still apply ML. Maybe the difference will be that it will be more on the application side of the ML rather than the theoretical part.

Also, I will be cautious about "... landing a PhD position at a good US school", from my experience and others, I've found out that it's more important to look after a supervisor with whom you can resonate rather than chasing a reputable institution.

She looks---really looks---at her husband and realizes that outside of his consumer marketing instincts and technical wizardry and (increasingly infrequent) write-ups in TechCrunch and VentureBeat and his nouveau confidence, he's quite boring.

She married someone she wasn't particularly interested in for what his money could buy her, and came to realize he is boring.
