Some things just won't work without JavaScript. Or would be way, WAY too hard to implement without JS.

But a website should at least appear without JavaScript. I've seen lots of websites that look empty or horribly distorted when JavaScript is disabled. That should not happen.
Ok, so.

You first write:

"The mainframe market is still $10B" and then

"the mainframe accounts for a quarter of IBM’s revenue" (that would be about $25B).

Which one is it? :)
Like.. instagram photo pages? (seriously, without js they're just a blank page!)
I would love something like to work with Chromecast and display tabs from my browser. Being able to hang a tab up around the house or office would be endlessly useful. The problem with most devices that try to solve this problem is that they try and create a new app ecosystem when it is completely uneccessary to do so.
Pound-for-pound, cement is the largest producer of carbon emissions in the world.
You're trying to get the frog to jump out of the pot before it is too late but you're underestimating the degree to which it has already become drowsy.
>The real complaint I hear most often is simply 'I thought I was going to make an app, publish it and make money! I haven't made money. I think the app store it broken'

Where have you heard that most often?
OrientDB (apparently, though I'm now skeptical considering above comments) does a good job of storing relationships between disparate documents. When you're searching for relationships (and not meta on the doc itself) we're curious if OrientDB provides a better solution.
Man, what a good idea. I participated in my first hackathon a few weeks ago and came in second place much to my and my teammates' surprise and delight. We were using a company's smart home technology. The first place team made an app that tracks utility usage by room so as to divide the bill fairly between roommates at the end of each month. Such good ideas come out of these events.
Given that there is nothing wrong with the science and the fact that mankind can't even manage to stop the smaller-scale climate change that we thought we'd have to face, I fail to see how something like thawing permafrost - which will make the problem much worse, much quicker - can possibly be described as something other than a catastrophe.

Does catastrophe mean something else to you, or are you suggesting it'll all work out before we get to a catastrophe?

(The next questions, as I'm sure you'll be able to guess, are what you think will happen to save us from ourselves, and when we can expect it).
Trust your gut
Coordination is complicated. Bandit problems also assume clear/instant payout per levee pull. I suppose WHO could do this in the back end.
I don't think that's true. When I started breathing meditation, it felt like that for me: whenever I was aware of my breathing, I automatically switched to directly controlling the breath. As a result, my rhythm was off and I often became lightheaded and stopped.

At some point you learn to separate action and observation: you can focus your attention on the breath, meaning the sensations associated with breathing (air flowing through your nostrils and over your upper lip, belly slowly moving), and still let your body control the breathing action automatically.

In The Mind Illuminated, there is a comparison of this to catching a ball: instead of seeing the ball and trying to directly control your arm to catch it, you focus on your intention ("Catch the ball") and let your body simply act on (implement) this intention.

The great thing is that while you practice this separation of action and observation using the breath, it will apply generally to your life. Very powerful for managing your emotions: instead of being your emotion when you become aware of it, and identifying with the urge to act on it, you learn to observe the emotion without that observation having direct effects on your actions. You can choose to act on it, or choose not to.
Empirically, I have not seen this to be the case.

Test coverage has had little correlation to code quality on the projects I've worked on.

I would agree that well-written tests of the most complex parts of code help contribute towards a quality system. Most of the other tests -- sometimes more so, and sometimes less so, depending on other aspects of the project.
That is a bit of a wrinkle, but it's easy enough to extend the basic principle to that type of situation. If the government objects to person A suing person B for $10 million, it should have to pay person A the ten mil to make the case go away.
Those aren't even the most dangerous jobs in the US. Garbage collectors and construction workers face a higher chance of maiming or death every day than soldiers or police officers.
Hehehe, my old gallery from years back is still available on the site:

I was lucky enough to also have my work included in their first book. Still have a copy on my shelf.
Data like this could (or might have the potential to) be used by the authorities to determine in which areas to test more. But otherwise it shouldn't send people anywhere, I don't think that was the intention.
Also, Faust has the good taste of being 100% open-source, has almost 20 years of work on optimization, and can easily be translated into SOUL if the need arises
Haha, I know, right?

I licensed that from PremiumBeat. In the early 2000s a friend introduced me to Cowboy Bebop, which I've been a massive fan of since (along with its excellent soundtrack), so I wanted some music with the slightly whimsical, slightly melancholy feel some of the tracks in the show had for Game Over.
My first thought was also Clickhouse and the problems with schema for dynamic log content.

Also, if this is open source, I will definitely be interested in checking it out/contributing etc.
The solution is neither fines nor radio hosts pleading. It is solidarity.

Unfortunately it is in shorter supply than toilet paper and takes generations to build up but only decades to destroy.

People need to set an example to their neighbours and friends, make it socially unacceptable to panic buy. It's not hoarding that is the problem it is is the unnecessary high rate of purchase. You could hoard all you wanted if you did it slowly in times when there is not a crisis.

Here in Norway we have a little more solidarity than most countries I believe but even here there was a one or two day period at the beginning when people went out to buy large quantities of toilet paper.
Yeah, I agree, unfortunately. Best examples: To my best knowledge no other European country has pledged massive help to Italy. China did a bit.
Some corps collect DNS logs from the infrastructure for domains that have been registered very recently.

UPDATE: The free tier is static at 1k and then you have to buy credits or it is 1k / month?
Didn't know about the division operator, when I used the pathlib module to resolve the correct paths, I almost always ended up Frankensteining with os.path.join, thanks for making this.
Hi, so many cool ideas in this thread but this one really caught my attention. As it happens I've been investigating solutions like this under an open source basis. Unfortunately I didn't pay enough attention to "marketing" so I was forced to quit due to lack of funding. Now my hands are sort of tied by a greedy copyright clause in my contract so I'm not sure how much I personally can do as I really want my work to be in the hands of the public.

One of my ideas is exactly using morse but more as a means to demonstrate a way to make a new input method learnable via a HUD.

Apart from that I'd think you might be interested in Dasher and that you should check out the solution that Stephen Hawking is using which happens to be open source.

I've put in quite a lot of thought into this and would love to discuss this with you.
If you are interested please use contact form in link below or let me know how I can contact you.

And Python dumped even the { }; you can now pile any number of scope closings into a single newline.
95 was my first graphical OS. I did not know:

- The "loading bar" image was loaded into and remained fixed in VGA memory. The animation was achieved by cycling the color palette over the area the bar appeared.

- Both the loading and shutdown images are 320x400. Conventional VGA is 640x480. The smaller image took advantage of the display to stretch the image into the desired aspect ratio.
Backed by nothing...as opposed to bitcoin?

People who repeat this don't understand that fiat money is based on trust...and that is not a bad thing.

This is why blockchain is fundamentally stunted: the global society is based on trust and cooperation. Trustless systems will never be able to compete in these arenas.
Thank you for the sharing, it's a really nice article on how tech competitive landscape is evolving.

On this I have some thoughts, especially about two points: Regulation and Climate work.

In fact, even if there is an actual disruption on these two kind of themes: the first in terms of raising user awareness on privacy (especially when we talk about GDPR after all the leaks of data that happened in these years), the second in terms of what is currently happening nowadays in the world we live (from Greta Thunberg, to the arise of pandemic).

But there is a HUGE challenge out there: is this going to look like a facade still, so that there is a changing in communication to these trends or the firms, brands and all the big players that impact the world are going to commit themselves for real?

A professor of mine at Lund University wrote a nice paper on that, from the IKEA scandal of erasing women in Arab Countries to the monetisation of the "sustainability campaign" made by Adidas. It was a really "mind opening" one and I share with you if you think that can be relevant. http://www.ephemerajournal.org/sites/default/files/pdfs/cont...
> 2-3 story buildings (brownstones)

IMO if it's less than 3 stories I wouldn't call it a brownstone. I guess park slope has some shorties but those are weird outliers.

> it is not car hostile either

Car hostility is a feature not a bug. Even at smaller scales.

Brooklyn suffers from the Els that were removed in the 1970s and never replaced, btw.

> hills make it a bit hard to create the european feel.

I feels a hellavalot like Lisbon, actually. Hills and coastline are great for forcing us foolish humans to use land efficiently.

(My theory is that hills actually helped, not hurt, economic growth in Japan, Korea, and somewhat Taiwan in the end. It's like the opposite of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_curse curse.)

I bet it helped California too, and would help more if it weren't for the Central valley release valve.

Eternal shame upon Seattle for leveling hills!
That's because it's hackaday. A site for electronics and embedded engineers/hobbyists/tinkerers

It's not so much an amiga thing as a hackaday thing
I can't imagine some working on banning sci hub and thinking it's "a good thing".
That’s a pretty cool site, thank you, I like how it’s very to the point with comparisons.
You can't know that. The moment it reaches their servers, you are not in control of what actually happens to it.
I look forward to your critique of dragon biology.

It never even occurred to me reading the books that they were anything other than fantasy.
I'm not sure how that fits within the counterfeit rule. If they weren't the real papers at scihub wouldn't it be all OK? The issue seems to be that the problem (according to publishers) is that the real papers are available not behind a pay wall.

The issue here isn't that the users of scihub are being defrauded by thinking they're ordering Prada and instead getting knockoffs.

Not saying I endorse scihub BTW, just that the excuse given doesn't jive at all with reality.
Most programmers don't work on end-user software. They work on server code, libraries and embedded systems.

Unsurprisingly, Visual Studio is therefore not at the top: http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=%2Fm%2F07zh7%2C%20%2F...
Yep, got it. I didn't recognize that funny graphic beside the pop-up menu in VirtualBox was supposed to be a button for opening a file. Creative UI choices like that do confuse me a great deal.
Kraken's API is pretty good when compared to the industry average. It's just a little bit whacky.
I think this is the real key. Sentences as passwords are really hard to crack as long as you choose a reasonably long sentence that you can remember easily but is not overly simplistic or obvious, and if you include a few typos or non-standard capitalization and/or punctuation it becomes that much more difficult to crack.

A sentence is the only way you'll get normal users to memorize a password > 6 chars. I think a sentence is much better than what most people end using, which is a personally significant word (like a child, spouse, or pet's name) + a brief personally significant numeric suffix (like birth year).
What's more terrifying

FTFY.
>It's a new feature for Android,

Oh, so by android he means, 5% of android owners. Sorry, that's not a great thing to base a strategy around and it would be nice to clarify the different methods iOS has and the fact that this is only in Android W.Y.Z and only 3 phones have that delivery mechanism yet.

(Don't think I am not POed that apple is again on multiple versions. Why are they lagging the Verizon iOS version).
Did he imply that they were unsalted?
I see (wikipedia) that fire-resistance was the factor that favored pine over other trees in the US South.
Neustar, Verisign, and Afilias operate the actual registry for most of the commercial TLDs (.com, .net, .me, .info, etc), and are all within US jurisdiction. Further, they all hold hefty government contracts.
Oh yes, and I do use this in my own passphrases for the added combinational complexity. I just wanted to point out to the naive that using `passw0rd` or `s3cr3t`, they are in password lists that a brute force attack will use. My point that crackers will programaticaly try this was less relevant.
This is great. I need this for all the tech I use.
So much to learn!
Can anyone confirm that this is even remotely true? $60K tax-free!?
It's important to watch for careful wordings: 22% of sales, 5 million downloads.

As a single data point, I've downloaded about 20 free books (I've read The Invisible Man and I'm halfway through Pinocchio). The overlap of free books on Kindle vs iBooks is pretty high (mostly all from Project Gutenberg).

I think the iBooks ability to download a free sample (usually first 30 pages) is the killer difference. I've downloaded a few samples when I first heard about a book, and every time I open iBooks they're there reminding me about a book I wanted to read, that I can pay for when I'm ready. Maybe the Kindle device has a better "shopping list" type feature, but all Kindle book purchases on iPad have to go through the browser.

I think iBooks is a better service, but the huge Kindle catalog will help Amazon. For a single book, the programs are similar enough that I'd just buy it from the cheaper store.
Proving the old cliche once again that "Europeans just don't get it". Compare and contrast with YCombinator, or if you think that's unfair because Y is so well-known, to the other tens of incubation/early acceleration programs in the US. I don't want to be too negative, but can't they at least get their HTML design more appetizing?
With health insurance, some will take more than their share by chance. Everyone will pay their actuarial cost (i.e., the expected value of their future medical expenses), and fat people will pay more. I.e., if the average fat person has average medical expenses of $3000, and the average thin person has average medical expenses of $1000, the thin person pays $1000 and the fat person pays $3000. I don't care what you do, since you will pay your own average medical costs.

With health insurance where costs are regulated (such as obamacare or our current employer provided health care), both people will pay $2000.
I tried exactly the same approach (based on the Lean Startup blog) but I got burned: Google Adwords banned me for life. Seriously! I tried to create another (unrelated) campaign and created a new user for that, and they still blocked me (I guess they are able to track my name through my credit card).

Anyhow, to this date I don't know why (they never explained, and they were quite rude and abrupt on the email). I believe it was because they found out that I didn't actually have a real product. I analyzed the access logs and I believe they actually verify the sites by hand before approving the ad.

In summary, be careful when you use Adwords without a real product.

Nice article - Thanks
yeah, why can't I plug my android phone into a large monitor and use it like a trackpad!
Remember as well that some of us in "foreign countries" want some oversight of the U.S. as well.

I sometimes joke that we're second-class citizens, much like in Rome (1) - we're affected by what the U.S. decides (as a kind of "world government"), but we cannot vote on it.

I don't understand why Python comparisons are being thrown around here. From my limited experience with Nim (I liked the name Nimrod better, but oh well), it seemed a lot more Wirthian than it did Pythonesque. And of course: AST macros.
I think I'm a stack in the short term, and a queue in the long term.
Or to put it another way: you can't become a good programmer without first being a bad programmer.
Not everybody hates it. If you have the same interests as your manager, you won't worry or be reprimanded for posting on your faovourite knitting forum for 15 minutes of each day or answering an im from your friend who lives halfway across the globe. Some people really feel like they're doing nothing wrong and have nothing to hide and if you feel that way you're probably right.
It really depends on your role at work. I wear many hats, so I've seen see how for project management an open office is a really productive and dynamic environment. However, for creatives, it is 180 degrees in the wrong direction.
I don't really think that "learning Linux" makes it a better OS. Investing your time into Linux, maybe, but some of us want our OS to be time savers, not a time sinks.
I absolutely love this kind of work. I've been trying to think of a way to convert this into a semi-reliable job.

'Professional Troubleshooter' or something similar...
Yes we do. Is there a role you're looking at?

Bruce Sterling talked about delivery drones in his book Heavy Weather (1995), and implied that they were being used for drugs. However, the one he described was ground based - I think it bounced like a kangaroo or pogo stick.

What I don't understand is: ASML is building these machines for making ICs. Why can TSMC use them for 7nm but Intel can only use them for 10 right now? Doesn't ASML make the lenses as well so that you're "only" stuck making the etching thingy (forgot what it's called, but the reflective template of a CPU).

It seems like nobody is talking about this, could anyone shine some light?
There are 4 different physics tests currently offered for AP.

Calculus based: AP Physics C Mechanics, AP Physics C E&M

No calculus: AP Physics 1, AP Physics 2

Of course you would need the one with calculus to get credit that works for any STEM major. Without calculus, you aren't likely to get more than a generic science credit.
As others have said, find another therapist. We don't have a lot of context to go on here but my therapist who helped me so much never put me down. He often told me important truths but in a way that I could digest and would help me to find successful mechanisms to help outside of the therapist office. If you're not finding that, get another therapist.
Bitcoin's software development could completely freeze right now, and it would still be useful. Most other projects require constant upgrades and tweaks, since they are very far from the stage they promised when they started. This is especially true for Ethereum.
The vast majority of work on web apps is probably writing CRUD controller methods, proxies to upstream services, or React components. It’s like saying CSS transitions are vital; they aren’t, but probably affect the user experience for the average Joe just as much if not more than a phantom read.

At that level of depth you just hand it over to the CSS champ or the DB champ.
Lately I've been having some luck with using parser combinators to parse XML in OCaml. I just define a lazy list type that takes input from Xmlm's streaming decoder and a few parsers for xml elements (`data : string parser` and `el : string -> 'a Attr.parser -> 'b parser -> ('a * 'b) parser`), plus all the usual combinators. It's probably not as fast as using libxml2 but at least it's type safe.

EDIT: The Attr.parser above uses the same combinators but it operates on a simple list of Xmlm attributes using a function that takes an attribute name and returns the value of that attribute, if found, and the list without that attribute.
They can do it, Our g-suite side of YT lets me assign users that can approve videos or channels for the org.

It's useless because once you log into YT you can't make playlists or I think subscribe without making a channel, by default that's first name/last name. even if I could I can't stop them uploading content. So the tiny org proofing tools that are there I can't use anyway.

I swear YT don't even use their own product.
