One online feature some users would welcome is integrated collaboration.[1]

Yes, a group of people could invent workarounds such as using Dropbox and copy files to new names such as PetroleumContractVersion1.docx, PetroleumContractVersion2.docx, PetroleumContractVersion3.docx, etc. Other manual methods of sharing could be blasting email attachments back and forth and CC'ing collaborators. Those methods are tedious and error prone.

Another option is to install a SharePoint server and use its document sharing features. That's probably overkill and many folks would think the Sharepoint "cure" is worse than the disease.

Since many folks find GoogleDocs sharing feature to be useful, it seems logical that adding such capabilities to a desktop word processor would help many workflows.

These advertising proposals are actually surprisingly reasonable and acceptable. It's nice to see someone admitting that eliminating advertising entirely, or eliminating all JavaScript, is not a tenable goal.

Having worked at several publishers, this is actually an advertising model we could support. It would work better for users, publishers, and most advertisers. The only people who would lose out are the AdTech firms.

Unfortunately, I think getting there requires that the people who want this sort of thing start acting reasonable. Instead of constantly demanding the death of all JavaScript, or an end to a century-old business model, demand measured change like this.
Well, if cities control the zoning, they then have to ensure for the welfare of the housing market. If you, for example, block developers from adding more housing (cough San Francisco), you are supporting raising housing costs and pushing lower income citizens out of your city.

If the market should drive the equation and the municipality meddle with either side of it, it's not a market in the way one normally infers.
If we assume you actually want to work for this company (because culture, what they do etc.) then is it too much to risk one of your weekends? Do you think it's not worth the risk?

If it's not worth the risk do you think it's a good hire for that company? Because in that case you clearly don't care much about the company and will jump the ship when next slightly better opportunity arrives.

Possibly I'm assuming too much and don't mean this to be personal but I'm really curious, is this the case or am I missing something?

Personally I feel about $100-200 fee as well, if the candidate is looking for compensation to build something fictional in 2 hours, is that candidate really care about your company, and is it a good idea to hire people who joins to your company just because you happen to be paying decent salary and they don't have a better option at the moment?
There's a little tavern on "the Hill", an Italian neighborhood here in St. Louis, down the street from where Yogi and Joe Garagiola grew up. My, then girlfriend, lived near there and we'd occasionally go to the tavern with her grandfather. Once in a while, Yogi would show up, even just 10 years ago, to say hi to old friends who would think nothing of him as a hall-of-famer but everything as a dear friend who had been gone a while.
It's more about using more memory than really needed

That's a statement which could apply to a lot of programs...

Whatever it's called/how it occurs exactly, the result is the same: excessive memory usage. This is what most people will notice, and the term "memory leak" is usually used to encompass all the ways in which this can happen.

Since we're on the topic...I've been wanting to ask how others perceive Genius.com since its last big investment round and its bold pivot from RapGenius to "Annotate the World"...So skepticism of personal anecdotes aside...I literally cannot think of a time when I've seen a (non-Rap)Genius-annotated link passed around in the wild, i.e. via Twitter, Facebook, mailing lists, Reddit, HN, etc -- other than in articles that are either by Genius (as a means of promotion) or about Genius...To put it another way, I can think of articles I've read about Genius and seen passed around on the Internet, but I can't think of instances of Genius-annotated pages being sent around.

Again, I know that personal experience is a bad indicator...but it's not as if I don't want to see more of Genius...I think their mission is great. But while I abhor things like Upworthy and ViralNova and their dozens of other clones...I at least see them in an average week of Internet usage.

Again, not a knock on Genius' mission or execution...Rap songs aside, I think it's inherently hard to get the average reader -- especially today when we seem so much more like a consumer culture than a creator culture -- to casually use the service. I'd even argue that the value of just reading annotations is probably lost on the average Internet user, judging by the vast simplification of reading interfaces/web design that we've seen in all the big content platforms (Twitter, FB, Medium, etc.).

edit: I know it's a little absurd to ask, "Has anyone seen Genius being used?" in a comment thread about a post in which a non-Genius person extols the use of Genius. But with all due respect, the OP is an academic and an editor of a book review...speaking as someone who is also an academic, academics finding something brilliant and edifying is not always an indicator of real-world use.

I haven't tried Angular yet but have built applications in React. In my opinion, frameworks like Angular suffer from a fundamental problem, that, it is almost impossible to gauge the problems of a new design unless you have a built a medium - large scale application with it which is very hard when you are just experimenting. There might be few heuristics, few rule of thumbs one can follow but still it will be hard to see if the ease - effort ratio will make the framework worthwhile. You can make things too "magical" and also too "worthless".

I guess that's why everyone complains that it is easier to build a Todo application in Angular but the troubles grow as you grow bigger. The reason why React is successful might be they did get a chance to experiment the architecture on their own things before releasing it to the public.

Note that Ghostery will block trackers but they do sell your usage data themselves.

Use privacy badger or a tracker-blocking list for your ad blocker if you're that concerned about privacy.

On another note, as an ad person, context-aware ads are alive and well, for instance if you mention a specific thing in your Facebook updates you're more likely to see an ad for it. But the hard fact is that personalisation and retargeting works very, very well.

The real mistake ad companies do is that you should not see that ad if you didn't want to buy the jeans (or you bought them on a different device), which is hard to guess but not impossible

You only need a memory manager for pointer protection. Intel states their intent for SGX on their website[1]. Some of the more important goals are:

1. Allow application developers to protect sensitive data
from unauthorized access or modification by rogue software
running at higher privilege levels.

...

5. Enable the development of trusted applications [...]

6, Enable software vendors to deliver trusted applications and updates [...]

...

8. Enable applications to define secure regions of code and data that
maintain confidentiality even when an attacker has physical control
of the platform and can conduct direct attacks on memory.

This isn't about buffer overflows. You don't need to create a system where software vendors can create regions of memory that are protected against a logic analyser or cold boot attack to fix C style pointer bugs. You do need this capability if you want to hide things from the owner of the computer.

It's not like they are hiding anything - "trusted applications" has been a dog whistle for DRM at least since "Palladium" (later called "Next-Generation Secure Computing Base"), part of Microsoft's "Trustworthy Computing" plans ~15 years ago.

Personally, If I read "memory leak", I expect c-style "lost all pointers to allocated memory" problems. If I read "space leak", I expect haskell-style "built up way too many thunks", like this.

While the end results are similar, the mechanisms are wildly different, and just because _you_ don't differentiate between them doesn't mean that other people can't, or that it's not a useful distinction.

Was there any claim that MS products, unknowingly to users, send users' private data, that was proven true by being reproducible and/or having independent verifications from well-trusted third parties?

What's known (and can be independently verified and reproduced) are search queries, crash reports, hardware specs and new executables. Mostly, if appropriate settings are not disabled. And performance metrics, but their sensitivity is mild at best. Don't get me wrong - it's not any small deal and it is already quite sensitive, but this is nowhere near "all secrets". There are a lot of outcries about serious spying - on the order of webcam shots, audio streams or even hard drive scans on typing in movie names, yet I haven't seen any details and highly suspect those are rumors and speculations at best.

Is there anything like those rumors - a private data leaks that can't be justified (i.e. not usual "search improvements" or "malware protection" stuff), but that can be verified and reproduced? I bet, many would love to hear about some, check the facts and went to police and/or court with those.

We do have state-of-art decompilers, protocol analyzers and IDS software. Yet I'm somewhat bothered by the gap between the rumored privacy implications and analysis published.

As for YouTube ad engineers, pretty much everybody on the planet knows forced pre-roll youtube ads are a bad idea. Nobody wants to watch them. So, the engineers implementing these things must be under corporate (read: clueless) pressure to crapify the user experience solely to appease management.

(edit: It's also hilarious how ad tech people refuse to recognize how evil and backwards their entire business models are. They vehemently defend, downvote, and mob-mentality their way through the cognitive dissonance of hurting hundreds of millions of users in exchange for retaining their jobs. Because, after all, if I'm doing the work, it can't be bad, right? I'm not a bad person, so the people arguing against me must be the evil ones.

One comment theme that seems to get instant downvotes on HN: the concept you are not entitled to track and record every client-side user action. So many people assume invasive tracing and recording of all user behavior is "just how the world works" and "if we don't do it, we'll fall behind." Kinda military-oligarchy mindset, isn't it? If we don't have all the power, who knows what people will do!)

I love this metaphor. I've been trying to explain to people that the new c++ is just another layer of features on top of the old language. You can't learn c++ by just learning the last layer added.

Modern C++ is just a subset of the language, and nothing prevents the old language from popping up everywhere.

The nasty thing about a space leak as compared to a traditional memory leak is that the thunk will likely get evaluated or discarded eventually. That's a good thing in that the memory used often won't grow unbounded in a long-running process, it's just larger than it should be, but it makes it way harder to find the source of the problem.
Just a weekend hack, alas. But it generates identical code to NASM for the subset of x86 it handles, so the basic mechanics should be correct.

I'm not defending Lenovo for their actions.

However:

3 years ago, my department went with Acer V5-571P laptops. Every single one has been broken and destroyed from casual use. We've found serious manufacturing defects and other flaws, and Acer is not interested in fixing it.

5 years ago, however, we had a small batch of Lenovo E430 devices. These devices are in much better shape than the devices two years younger than them.
We have a few other groups of 'incremental updates' that have the exact same results. Lenovo devices hold up much better.

Say what you will about Lenovo's shady practices, but their computers are built like tanks.

This is very true. I think the distinction is consent, and choosing who you give up privacy for. When I visit a web page, I don't know whether the page is going to track me or not. By the time I find out, it is too late, my visit has already been recorded. When I give a publisher/content-creator/whatever money, I am agreeing to enter into a transaction with them, and I expect that they will have a record of that transaction.

I've used both and I could completely replace Angular with React and some scaffolding code.

I used Angular on medium to large web apps in the past and while its easy to get started you always get tons of problems at scale. Staying at scale without problems requires so much discipline its not even worth mentioning.

The two-way bindings are just the wrong way to go in order to keep things simple as you scale. It becomes nearly impossible to reason about the performance of your app or what is going to trigger if you change a model.

This is way, way too complex to build an application. With React most of this complexity goes away. I'm also using React from ClojureScript through the Om library so these might be contributing to said simplicity!

It's a valid comparison, if you feel Angular tries to solve problems you don't have, and in doing so, causes other headaches.
