I mean it’s not that much more complicated than webpack. You don’t actually have to create your own minimal JVM. But “take the JVM source, remove a bunch of stuff, and then compile” is pretty pedestrian as far as carrying patches for your dependencies goes. There are shops that are running their own modified kernels in prod.
Turns out the state has the power to regulate private businesses, and when a business has so much power that it can unilaterally influence (even threaten) democratic process, the state ought to regulate it (or else it regulates the state).
It would be more interesting if they did it years ago. Doing it less than 2 weeks before he leaves office seems uninteresting and cowardly to me.
To take that position in good faith you’d have to support the censorship of political movements every time a government building was breached and/or vandalized by their protestors.

Fast home page. At least it was.
HTML5 apps are not a valid replacement for native development. There are many device capabilities that are only accessible through the native development SDK, such as anything requiring access to various hardware, or that needs to integrate with data on the phone. Even if half the rejected applications could be written in HTML5, that still leaves the other half. I'm sorry, but that's not an acceptable solution. I should be the one to determine whether an app can run on my device, not my vendor.
Let's just hope this update doesn't have any security vulnerabilities, unlike the last time they did this:

One thing I did was check out members of local tech community groups -- googled the names and found something about them (say an article/post they wrote). Then I would write a personal email with some comments directed to that person specifically, with a quick note about me and how I might be able to help them. It's time consuming but does get responses if you choose people carefully, and don't spam.

I also did pro/low bono work for organizations with lots of members -- it's a good way to get your name out b/c you're identified as a potential local resource.

Most people/orgs that I work for want fixed pricing -- I handle that by writing up an estimate that breaks down each task/feature, how long it takes to implement that feature, and my hourly rate. That way you still give them a set price, but you get the hourly rate in their heads, so you have a basis for pricing changes/enhancements. You can also give first-time clients a "first project" discount -- that way they are more inclined to hire you, but also have an idea how much your "real" price is for future work. If you are really good, they will hire you again.

For an hourly rate I think the advice already posted is good -- I started low and bumped up my rate with each new client. I typically charge for-profit companies more than individuals/non-profits. If you think your rate is too high, it's probably right on target. :) You can always renegotiate down if the rate is a dealbreaker, but you can't renegotiate up.

Scope creep can kill you -- in my estimate I write as specifically as possible what I will do (based on requirements discussions), and more importantly what I WILL NOT do. You can't catch everything, but that goes a long way toward resolving conflicts. When there's a material change/addition, you can then price that new task accordingly. People will take advantage of you if they can get changes/additions for free.

A good web presence is important -- I get calls from out of the blue from people who have seen my web site, and those have turned into long-term relationships. Do some SEO to make sure you're visible to your local area.

I think the issue may be that this can come from both within the individual and from society externally. Internally you feel low worth and then you see it confirmed externally moving around in society. Speaking as someone who got laid off and had to take one step back career-wise, I feel this but also, on better days, realize I create my reality at the same time. It's a difficult balancing act of who and what to give the most credence to.

Incredible on iOS. Android support... coming soon!

This seems to be the case with a lot of cross-platform development kits. One or the other of the platforms is a second-class citizen.

It seems that all of us are salivating at the idea of having true cross-platform tools that actually work really well on all environments so I will keep my fingers crossed that Facebook can pull it off.
with java I find its so once you get through the factories, abstractions, and more

Most of the typical design patterns do not hinge on generics or even inheritance and can be implemented easily in Go too.
I wish when I was 14 I was exposed to more contemporary literature, instead of great classics. And I have no regrets about missing out on math books—most of my friends went to math camp for that kind of knowledge.

I'd recommend David Foster Wallace's Infinite Jest; Junot Diaz's This is How You Lose Her; The Collected Stories of Lydia Davis; Haruki Murakami's Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage.

I wish when I went into college I understood women better, people with mental health issues, sexuality, drugs, rich people, powerful people, old people.

He'll have 2x4 year periods where he'll be able to build long-lasting relationships. Understanding himself and other people will pay off much better than solving puzzles. So I'd stick to really aggressive contemporary fiction. He'll find math on his own.
If we really want to be so pedantic then the term unlimited can never be used in this context due to the Bekenstein bound.

IMO the term is still a useful marketing short-hand that has come to mean "more than can reasonably expected unless you are purposefully trying to break the system", though cellular data providers in particular have done their part to cloud the issue by having "unlimited" terms that are really ridiculously limited.

Based on my dealings with Amazon so far I have every reason to believe their "unlimited" will be, if anything, overly generous.
> Small businesses. Be prepared to rethink how your career works.

could you explain better?
When I hear "unlimited", I think of "enough data that you will never have to worry about hitting a hard cap".

The definition of "enough data" is going to vary person to person. I saw this and my mind went immediately to backups, but that is not a trivial amount of data (terabytes+), and I am not prepared to risk my Amazon account over it.

That's the problem, here. By not knowing what the number is, you are unable to make correct decisions, and with the alternative being account termination, that is unacceptable. Amazon has constructed a situation in which it's unclear what exactly they're selling, but since we know in advance that there must be a limit, they are advertising falsely.

The moment they kick someone out for this, ToS or not, they will have a legitimate claim of action. And I will guarantee you the actual number is going to be smaller than you think.
No, it doesn't matter because the moment Trump 'changed his tune' all of his followers erased in their minds the history of him denying reality. To them, he was always acting with foresight.

You cannot discredit someone who robbed a bank and literally denies it the next day, along with millions of followers who also deny it even having seen the robbery first hand.

Your assumption of 'credit' implies some kind of rationality, there isn't. It's just a big personality fight.

Whatever Trump does or says is right, by virtue of the fact he said it.

FYI - the same could apply to popular characters of other kinds, this not just Trump, he's just a good example.

Edit: I should add, I feel this way specifically because I enjoy reading comments from various news sources as a measure of certain kinds of populism, and about 2/3 of the commenters currently on FoxNews are very pro Trump, often hailing is 'early action' etc. on the issue, completely disregarding the fact that only days ago, he was dismissing the issue as a hoax, literally indicating 'we only have a few cases, it will be zero soon' - all the while Wuhan and other places blow out of control. This should be enough to destroy any leaders' credibility. And of course, this is not a left/right/up/down thing, there are leaders of all political stripes who either do such ridiculous things or, who are credible - but still have followers who'll believe their statements over any kind of reality. I think this is more common than not: we believe personalities more than we believe facts.
Or just look for the bloom / back blast from the SPG from orbit / drone
>But it is also in the best interest of the end user. So why is that a bad thing?

Like said, the bad thing would be more wastage and potentially less relevant advertising.

The problem with advertising is that a campaign success is a multi variable equation that fiddles with human attention/retention of attention/memory and many other factors that makes us humans and regulate our perception.

For example, I don't consider Google Search contextual base. I put it in a category of it's own, because you're tapping into people declaring their intent and interest, and reducing it to context is dangerous - because it's more than that.

I used to say to clients: Facebook knows what you like, Google knows what you're looking for, and Amazon knows what you're buying.

Google does have Contextual Segmentation but it's used mainly for display advertising (GDN - Google Display Network). There was a time you could even select/exclude domains, but I don't know if that's still available.

Also, Facebook tried to leverage their data for display advertising outside of Facebook and they ended up closing Audience Network... so even interest based targeting seems to work within a context itself.

>The fact that publishers so far have not been able to do something about FB’s and Google’s duopoly doesn’t necessarily mean they will never be able to.

This would be a long conversation, but in a brief way, I think they tried to compete by placing themselves next to Facebook and Google, while they should have set themselves apart and leverage their strengths - name content quality wise.
There are already many built-ins that behave in exactly the same manner as integer_si/1 does. Take T =.. [F|Args]. which produces an instantiation error, idem functor(T,F,1).

The nice thing when you have (such) errors is that if they do not happen you can be sure that the result is correct (in an appropriate pure subset). Without errors, you never know.
I'm not sure an IT attack is a sure fire thing that goes along with healthcare use.
Keeping people home is helpful.
Dead. Tech startups, VC funding etc are so negligible in the broad scope of the country they are not worth discussing. Everyday entrepreneurship is pretty much dead. Small family owned businesses, your mom and pop shops (e.g., retail shop, hardware shop, corner store), small factories, and pretty much whatever you think of cannot compete in a landscape dominated by massive, consolidated corporations and chains. Especially when large corporates can get all the funding they want via banks, bond markets, equity markets, etc, whereas the idea of a small shop getting a business loan has become a joke.

Don't believe the hype about "disruption," incumbents are thriving and becoming more dominant every year.
Google also broke my bluetooth audio... :/
And they are not being very responsive about it on the issue tracker.

And the silly thing is... it once worked! I feel like I should have never "upgraded" my Android version.

Shame you were downvoted as it definitely added to the conversation.

That said I would disagree that flaws in a type system will result in people moving away from Go. Scala has a type system that is ridiculous complex and has plenty of holes and it doesn't seem to have affected its adoption rate.
In my experience, when doing user acceptance testing, the user will only ever give a maximum of X comments. If there is copy on the page, especially FPO, most of the comments will be around this copy since this is something that they understand.

I am able to get much more valuable feedback when using copy that is obviously not final.
It's slower than WhatsApp in almost all aspects. I can send a WhatsApp message to someone who is 500 miles away on wifi and get a response from them in less than 2 seconds. It takes 2 more than 2 seconds for them to RECIEVE a message on hangouts. I've personally timed this and heard similar experiences with a few other people.
Yes, that's how it works.

I have used Lenovo warranty service a couple of times over the years and it is always explicitly stated that the replaced parts need returning.

It seems to me that the OP chose not to read the warranty terms, or communications he would have received, and chosen to ignore any information told via their phone support. Then, the OP either discarded the hard-drive or used it elsewhere, and now wishes to claim that the end of the world has occurred and that Lenovo are evil.

Actually, every hardware supplier I know of requires the hardware back. It is extremely rare when someone doesn't (Amazon in the early days of Kindle spring to mind as the exception tends to stand out).
I agree. My first thought was "Wait you want MY HDD?... The thing that has ALL of my personal information on it?????"
I hope you've also fitted a noise-generator to your bike instead of the bell.
I think one reason why Oliver enjoys so much success is the fact that HBO posts the main news story section on Youtube after every show. The ready availability of these digestible segments helps extend the show's reach. For Comedy Central shows, if you don't watch the episodes on TV you have to use the Comedy Central website or Hulu, neither of which have the appeal of Youtube.

I like Oliver, but Colbert is (was?) still my favorite. I didn't watch him for the news, I watched him for the comedy. I don't think either Stewart or Oliver can match Colbert when it comes to being really really funny.
I wouldn't mind some auditory feedback on engine performance, it can be very useful. I definitely don't want it to be simulated noise that's meant to approximate some fictional engine. Making it specific to what it is for and embedding more useful audio clues within it would be good (along with the ability to easily disable).

As someone who's owned a few older cars, the sound is one of the most useful early diagnostic tools. It tells you immediately how the engine is running. Often you can tell the difference between a cold engine and a hot engine running. Losing this entirely isn't necessarily a good thing, but neither is faking it, which is the worst of both worlds, no useful information conveyed (beyond possibly RPMs, depending on implementation) but noise nonetheless.
Curious about skype (inc Lync which will be rebranded to Skype)

Not in all frames of reference. There is a frame of reference in which the object appeared just 30.5 years ago. This would be a frame of reference which would be moving from the star towards the earth at 0.9999999999999999*c
Cool. Keep us posted.
This is correct. Relativity destroys all notions of simultaneity between 2 distant objects. We only have causally and non-causally related events. In this case, the black hole at age 35 can only causally affect us in the year 2015. To put it simply, there exists a frame of reference in which the year 2010 on earth occurs before the 35th birthday of the black hole. So to say that the black hole is 50,000,030 years old in the year 2010 on earth is misleading. It is only true for one very particular frame of reference i.e. the earth.
Because this project (sensibly) doesn't override X509 authentication, it does nothing to address the problem observed by the parent commenter, or for that matter the fever dream of the article we're commenting on.

Thankfully, it is very unlikely that anything like this would ever see widespread adoption, thus allowing us to sidestep the question of how it might work if they turned X509 off.
I've been looking for a service that does this exact thing. Give me personalized recommendations on restaurants so I can stop trying to comb through mountains of sometimes non-sensical, irrelevant Yelp reviews to decide what new restaurant to try.

A lot of comments here have complained that this has been tried and done. My question is, where? Does Yelp already do something like this? I went on Yelp a few days ago looking for this exact service. I'm not a Yelp user, and I just wanted something quick and lightweight that would give me recommendations based on my preferences. Found nothing to that effect. In order to contribute at all, I have to write a full review for a bunch of restaurants.
How was the pat-down compared to what the TSA has started doing? More or less thorough?
It is a very simple reason. They don't want to support multiple devices login as the same time to the same account. The reason for this I think it is because of their architecture constraints:
- Currently, they are storing all the messages on the phone. So once the message is received by the phone, it will be removed from Whatsapp server. This can save the storage and processing cost on the server. If you want to support multiple clients, you need to save those messages on the server for a period of time (e.g. a few weeks).

- If you allow two clients online at the same time, you need to support "carbon copy" meaning you need to send the messages to all the clients and keep the status of the messages in sync. This will take a lot of processing on the server side.

- When a client offline for a long time goes online, you also need to sync from the server all the messages that were sent during the client is offline.

So their architecture was built in such a way that the processing power on the server side is limited to the minimum. I believe that they may change its strategy in the future. However, it will take time.
In the case of medicine I would hope that we have better motivations than just profits to keep us going, in energy the profit motive will suffice (and it will do so even when there is no financial gain).

Scientific discovery was here long before intellectual property and scientists were not so much driven by profits as they were driven by curiosity. Nowadays in academia ego is also a big factor (it may have been in the past as well).

jabber.org doesn't accept new registrations since 2013.

If you're looking for a public XMPP server to register an account at there is a (no longer updated) list of Jabber servers at https://xmpp.net/directory.php and a more up to date list at https://list.jabber.at.

You can register an account any public XMPP server at https://conversejs.org (via the chat client in the bottom right).

Incidentally, I run the conversejs.org server which is open to registrations.
Go does seem more verbose than Python. Rosetta code tries for idiomatic solutions to common tasks, here's one such completed in both Python and Go: http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Bitcoin/address_validation

As a Portland native, I'd say there's nothing Portlanders love more than Portlandy things from Portland.

But in seriousness, I think it's fairly clear the whole obsession with the carpet was started by photos shared on Facebook and Instagram. People didn't used to take pictures of the carpet -- it was just a peculiar design that was recognizable but not necessarily noteworthy. I remember seeing PDX carpet photos with the classic "feet on ground" composition circulating Facebook several years ago and it has steadily spread since.

But the announcement of the carpet's eventual replacement really galvanized the phenomenon because it turned it into a news story and created a cottage industry for carpet memorabilia. I think the whole thing is hilarious.
