AOL has built up a formidable arsenal of video ad tech in recent years. Surely Verizon is more interested in that rather than whatever clicky content AOL is shipping these days.
Pure speculation here, but it doesn't seem crazy to think that this is in part for use by the Oculus team. While voice commands are a nice to have on current mobile phones - they are likely to be a much bigger deal for head mounted displays.

>And yet no serious research is being put into hard AI

Google is doing some research. One quote:

"One of my favourite things is artificial intelligence, but it has gotten a very bad rap, but my prediction is that when AI happens it's going to be a lot of computation and not so much clever algorithms but just a lot of computation. My theory is that if you look at your programming, your DNA, it's about 600 megabytes compressed, so it's smaller than any modern operating system, smaller than Linux or Windows or anything like that, your whole operating system, that includes booting up your brain. So your program algorithms probably aren't that complicated, it's probably more about the overall computation. We have some people at Google who are trying to build artificial intelligence and to do it on a large scale to make search better. Very few [other] people are working on this, and I don't think it's as far off as people think." - Larry Page, February 2007

Is it? Salesforce reported annual profits starting in 2004, the year of the IPO (it was founded in 1999). Accumulated earnings were already positive in 2008. It had a good run of GAAP profitability (2004-2011) before losing much more than it had earned before in 2012-2016.

I built this Augmented Reality visualization last year to help the students of my [learnprogramming.online](https://learnprogramming.online) course understand how arrays work in programming, mostly with regards to index access.

The constructive answer to the original question is - yes both this system and Java bytecode are fundamentally stack-based languages, so they should match up well.
There’s 330M people in the US and 365 days in a year, so you can hear about one mistake every day and it’s still an extremely minute error rate.

It would be nice if someone brought data to the discussion.

And specifically about health insurers erroneously denying coverage. I have first hand knowledge from a doctor at an insurance company that audits other doctors’ work at the same insurance company to ensure they are not erroneously denying claims, as there are heavy penalties from state governments and CMS.

That is a separate conversation from out of pocket costs destroying someone’s life that has nothing to do with health insurers and everything to do with how much US voters are willing to have their taxes go to those with less.

There is some information in this link:

https://www.kff.org/private-insurance/issue-brief/claims-den...

> The ACA guarantees external appeal rights to enrollees in all non-grandfathered private health plans. When issuers uphold denials at the internal appeal level, consumers have the option of requesting an independent review by an outside entity, whose decision is binding. Consumers also can bypass internal appeal and go directly to external review in emergencies and certain other circumstances. Consumers seldom avail themselves of external review.

In the general case where that's true I expect it mostly comes down to trying to balance features against available resources and the amount/complexity of the code that needs to be written/maintained. As noted elsewhere in this thread, there were a bunch of layoffs at Mozilla the last year, but even without that it's sometimes necessary to make tough, pragmatic decisions.

In the case of the new print preview/workflow, however, I expect it will provide virtually everyone with a better workflow once we've finished polishing any rough edges. The feedback on places like Reddit indicates that it's already a very clear net win for most users, and I think we can address most of the complaints on support.mozilla.org etc. The eventual removal of the `print.tab_modal.enabled` preference and the old code will simply be because having two print preview implementations adds code complexity and is a maintenance burden.

Hmm,

"But what that means is that the Internet goes from being a www.com => globally-identifiable site to everyone having their own version. Links, URIs, Universal Resource Identifiers are no longer universal, and can't be used to reliably direct people around."

Yeah, it suck the state is breaking the Internet. I don't like it.

We should be clear. We shouldn't claim consider this to be an improvement. We should consider this a counter-measure to something like an act of war on the Internet, which it is.

"The average person will not understand this and will simply use whatever comes through automatically. If it doesn't lead them where they expected, they simply turn back. Leaving us back where we started."

The average user is smarter and smarter. This is something like a war. Normally fat, dumb and happy humans can often sudden exhibit more intelligence in this kind of situation.

Only the most popular seized pages will have any chance of continuing to exist...

The state cares most about these sites too. The state doesn't like actions which dilute it's power. Even when they don't really work, they also make it look bad, which should not be underestimated. Basically, this an electronic form of civil disobedience. And I believe things have come to the point that this might matter.
Any reason you say Catholic specifically? I understand why you would expect eastern religious to experience discrimination, but in my experience Christians as a whole are basically safe and Jews don't really have any problems either. If anything the Catholics are discriminated against more than other Christians although I certainly wouldn't say that either group see much trouble.

I worked at a McDonalds where they had a machine to count the coins in the cash drawers. It was very quick, but not as fast as the larger machine the bank used. This was 25 years ago and I would not imagine they have gotten slower.

It was also quite expensive, but it saved minutes counting down a drawer at the end of a cashier's shift, and probably paid for itself in labor rather quickly (the cashier did not clock out until the drawer was counted).
ICANN can shut down all of a ccTLD or none of it; such a penalty is too large to ever use.
You're certainly right. I'm not trying to pretend like I'm some kind of super-person. We had advantages: my mom was a gymnastics coach, I was in a great school system, high expectations were placed on me. We had disadvantages: we were immigrants, lower middle class growing up and neither parent had any experience with the US college application process.

I think Warren Buffet says it best: "Take me as an example. I happen to have a talent for allocating capital. But my ability to use that talent is completely dependent on the society I was born into. If I'd been born into a tribe of hunters, this talent of mine would be pretty worthless. I can't run very fast. I'm not particularly strong. I'd probably end up as some wild animal's dinner."
First of all thank you for your answer.

At the moment I'm having a double life between working as a programmer (40 hours per week) and studying. It's pretty hard and I really don't have much time for friends and parties but it's fun too. I think it made me a other person and maybe a better person having this double life.
What I'm trying to say is I think I can handle a lot of work but I a guy who has to know why I'm doing this all. If it is fun to work in a startup I will go that extra mile with a smile but if it is not fun at all I wouldn't do that for a long time.

While living in the Bay Area seems pretty expensive I think Software Engineers are earning enough to live well, aren't they? (Everytime I read salaries from Software Engineers on HN I'm really shocked cause you would never get that amount here in Germany)

Do you know if there is a chance to study for a master degree while working as a full time Software Engineer? That's what I'm doing right know and in Germany it is possible to study part time. It takes longer but it's ok and you can live a pretty decent life when it comes to money (not everything is money but that's a other topic).

Whats about getting a job in the valley as a Software Engineer. Is it hard to get a job because of all excellent engineers around?

Any chance of chatting with you about all that stuff? Maybe Facebook?
If we agree that new ideas are a threat to a culture ( after all, from evolutionary perspective, it survived until now by not entertaining that particular idea ), then society either should consider banning new ideas in an attempt to force stability or allow for limited beta testing of new ideas. Successful social experiments are integrated. The rest are pushed to the outskirts.

Fingerprint on a phone (either iOS or Android) only authenticates the local phone user, it doesn't really expose any mean of unique identification to the app. So, basically even if you enforce fingerprinting to use the app, it would just authenticate/match whatever fingerprint was registered in the underlying OS.

Can confirm. Our TLDs scaled by about two orders of magnitude in total registration number following our launch of .app, but the associated costs that rose were very marginal. Most of the cost is not strictly related to volume.

No you are wrong - The word 'decade' is not tied to any specific set of 10 years, so you can mark off any set of 10 years and call it a decade: 2000-2009, or 2005-2014, for example. By your logic the year 2000 should be part of the 90's which it wasn't.

Some comments appear to have been lost. For example, there was a comment by runeks that started "There is no solution because you would end up punishing innocent people" and finished with a link to the Wikipedia about a 1749 case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crawfurd_v_The_Royal_Bank

(I still have this page open on another device, from before the comment move was attempted.)
I think that reading the man page for git-push is not reasonable if you don't understand git first.

That being the case, the first thing you need to read is the main git man page. At the bottom of it (sadly) you find references to gitrevisions and gitglossary man pages. Those should provide enough information and examples to understand what a ref is, yet probably even these could be better.

I'm in full agreement that this is terribly undiscoverable, but if you really want to RTFM, you mustn't stop at just the first page.

> Nix is not a build tool designed to work with arbitrary or latest development versions of libraries, for example.

No, that's exactly what it's designed for and exactly how we use it. And it's not a build tool (it just calls your existing build tools under the hood), it's a system for keeping different versions of dependencies installed at the same time without errors.

STUN is just for punching holes in your NAT router, and also discovering what is your public IP address. Both things will be needed for the other peer to know where to reach you. And the other way around.

Once this NAT thing has been done by both parts, and the actual communication has started directly P2P, STUN is not needed any more.
Works for me (tested in Pixel / Chrome and iPad / Safari). A bug report, or better yet, PR against the repo would be welcome, not just for this but because I plan to use SVG for most of my 2D/GUI related content in the coming months. (And I have a lot planned!)
> The node can't even determine the 2nd hop, much less the origin.

The point is that users should be cautious about what they do over Tor because exit nodes can eavesdrop on (and potentially manipulate) the conversation.

The onion mechanism isn't relevant here. It prevents peers from identifying each other within the onion, but it doesn't do anything to prevent the exit node from accessing the raw packets involved in the conversation -- indeed, the exit node must access those packets to proxy them. It's true that some of the traffic will be protected via HTTPS, but even encrypted packets can be made useful in various ways.

The reality is that you're introducing a random computer into your network path and that you're trusting that computer to proxy your connection without a) eavesdropping; or b) modifying contents. The prevalence of HTTPS may or may not be sufficient mitigation for some, but any analysis of the propriety of Tor to access non-onion sites is fundamentally incomplete if it doesn't acknowledge, contemplate, and address the implications of inviting a random computer to MITM the connection (as the Tor FAQ has done for at least the last 10 years: https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#CanExitNode...).
Freedom of speech is not freedom to microtarget billions of people, aided by technology to change their minds to act according to bigoted principles.

I'm fully on board with Cohen, except that he doesn't go into enough detail about what Facebook is. Facebook is no longer a social network on which you can connect with friends and share your thoughts and aspects of your life. Facebook is an influence-amplification network where with enough money you may change the minds of hundreds of millions of people.

In other words it's ad targeting that when taken to its logical conclusion becomes the ultimate propaganda system.
To be fair, the UX for building Svelte-style GUIs is pretty unparalleled. It feels a lot like SwiftUI. The React variety with setState and Redux creates a ton of verbose code.

Yeah I get what you mean... that wasn't my intention with the argument though. Maybe some clarification needed.
Interesting. I didn't try to do the assignment when I read the first part, but just tried it now before looking at the second part. When I started to write the main loop, I felt uneasy when I realized I'd be doing unnecessary copying in the common case when char_to_remove is never found. My code ended up a tad more complex than yours due to desire to avoid that:

void condense_by_removing(char *z_terminated, char char_to_remove) {
char *p = z_terminated;
for (; *z_terminated != 0; ++z_terminated) {
if (*z_terminated != char_to_remove) {
if (z_terminated != p) *p = *z_terminated;
p++;
}
}
if (*p != 0) *p = 0;
}
Not to try and get downvoted and not saying this isn't an absolutely shitty situation for the gulf but this thing cant really take into consideration elevations and/or valleys where the oil would rest and not spread.

You can't sustain any weight loss no matter how little for the simple mathematical reason that body weight is nonnegative. I do agree that 2 lbs/week which is about 8000 calories, or about 3-4 days worth of calories, is a lot. For an average weight person. If you weigh a lot then it may be ok because you naturally burn more calories per day so 8000 calories may only be 2-3 days worth. You shouldn't look at the lbs/week figure but at how many percent fewer calories you're consuming than you need to sustain body weight.
It's convention for C strings to be \0 terminated, and the standard library expects this just about everywhere (along with the kernel and just about everything else you might want to interface with). If you wanted to store a string as a (length, data) pair you could do that too, but you'd have to write most of your own string manipulation functions.
This term should be offensive to actual slaves. What do you think a real slave would say if he saw a free worker (who could at any moment quit, go to another employer, start a business, move to another country, go on holiday, join the army, become a priest, or just sit there slacking off safe in the knowledge that the worst thing that can happen is getting fired) complaining that he was a slave too?
I've got some sites that are 'quantified' with Quantcast (have the tracking code) and the numbers agree within a few percent with other analytics: that's for sites that get anywhere between 50 visits a month to 500k.

If you're not quantified, Quantcast is a joke and the other sites are always a joke, no matter what. There was a long time when Alexa thought the top 20 sites in the world were all in Korea because, I guess, everybody in Korea had the Alexa toolbar. One day they changed their formula to prevent this because people were pointing out that their stats make no sense.

Compete, in particular, has a free service that's designed to annoy you into paying for the service, but everything I see on their free service and on their blog convinces me that the paid service is worthless... For instance, they had nothing to blog about one day, so they blogged that "Girls Gone Wild" gets 30% of its traffic from women... Everybody knows that systems like that use 50-50 gender statistics as a bayesian prior, so they always claim that sites have more balanced audiences than they really do.
