The recording I have is of Bernstein conducting the Chicago Symphony, which is apt since Chicago has traditionally had a reputation of an amazing brass section. The invasion theme (which Shostakovich later admitted was actually supposed to be a depiction of Stalin) in the first movement is really amazing in that it's a repeating theme (like Bolero) except that it just gets more and more psychotic as time goes on. Really fun recording to listen to.
Yes, round is usually a safer choice, but in this case we had reasons to use floor and ceil, and thus had to deal with the issue.

I've added a section to the article with a more correct snapping function showing the issue more clearly (I hope).
Ah. That's a great point actually. Maybe the solution is just to have the public provide and support this "fiber pipe". Not the fiber; Just the pipe.

You're in luck :) that's exactly what the Broadband Conduit Deployment Act is all about.
And when Evernote was at the height of it's popularity, the same article would have been written "How to succeed like a unicorn: Be 5% to EVERYONE!".
"Do you think donating some money to farmers is going to help in any way?"

Of course it would. They could buy new, better equipment, tools, fertilizers, seeds, animals etc. My country (Lithuania) joined EU in 2004 and started direct payments to farmers via projects, that helped A LOT. Now we have big, modern cooperatives and companies that sell products worldwide instead of small, inefficient farms. What I don't understand, how could Facebook (and friends) help them? I doubt that even an unlimited Internet would be useful without an extensive education, as most older/uneducated people struggle to use even a simple cell phone.
IMO the problem is more "attackers who have gained the ability to create subdomains under a legitimate domain" (not explained how) than Let's Encrypt.
The 1.8 to 1.9 transition was a significant hurdle, and virtually all of the anecdotes I've heard from people who quit Ruby because of its purportedly bad backwards compatibility were about 1.8->1.9. The cause of the difficulty was similar: Unicode.

In any case, Ruby has/had a much different dynamic back then. Most developers using Ruby were doing so because of Rails. When Rails made the move, not switching would have been tech-debt-suicide for any stack depending on Rails or library that was heavily associated with Rails.

I've just recently started using Python...and while there are a few big players who still have SDKs in 2.x...I can't think of any single Python library I've used that has had as much pull as RoR does on Ruby.

> I'm never lacking a choice to watch, even with fairly specific criteria in mind.

Do you mean that you get that content on Netflix? Or where do you watch?

At this point I'm fairly certain that I won't be able to find any movie from the list of things I'm interested in on Netflix. On Amazon maybe a few, for separate payment, which would be fine but half of their films don't offer the original audio track and instead force my local language. I absolutely don't want to see a dubbed version though.
So, all things considered I think it's a mess if you have specific things to watch in mind.
Since computation is measured by bytecode cost of instructions, supporting other languages would require a great deal of effort to do similar bytecode counting and to make sure that the counting across languages is fair and balanced. They've considered doing other forms of computation measurement, but none of the alternatives are very good or deterministic (time, lower-level instruction counting, etc).
I apologize if this is something that I overlooked in the announcement, but does this mean Netflix will now have the same catalog available everywhere? In the press release they only seem to refer to Netflix original series.
Last time I looked the Netflix content that was available to subscribers here (Belgium) was extremely poor and not comparable at all to what US Netflix subscribers are used to.
But it is a much smaller market

Meanwhile, Google Compute Engine still only has four regions and hasn't expanded in over 18 months. (Don't get me started on App Engine, it's not even available for the Asia region!)

>Let’s Encrypt only checks domains that it issues against the Google safe browsing API; in addition, they have stated that they do not believe CAs should act as a content filter. Security on the infrastructure is only possible when all critical players – browsers, CAs, and anti-virus companies – play an active role in weeding out bad actors.

I agree strongly with Let's Encrypt's view. They should not be responsible for policing the behaviour of their certificate users. They should just ensure that they only issue certificates for validated CNs.
Agreed, it's also just a cracking read. Adelstein is insane, in a good way.
I thought that Facebook claimed that anyone can make apps available in Free Basics:

https://developers.facebook.com/docs/internet-org

> Free Basics by Facebook provides free access to basic internet services to a billion people all over the world. Your service can be part of it.

> In order to make your website display properly within the Free Basics Platform and be accessible to people on all types of phones and data plans, your mobile website(s) must meet certain technical conditions created by the Free Basics proxy. [...]

Granted, I don't know how difficult it is to get a service included, but I've seen them mention a number of times that they intend enrollment to be open to anyone. The participation page seems focused primarily on technical issues like how easy the site is to proxy and cache, in order to serve a bandwidth-light version.
Because it is 2016 I guess?

So many languages did this for so long and then VMs got in vogue. Go not doing it was, for many people, a reminder it could be done.

But for a managed language runtime like the CLR to start supporting it is a big deal.
One thing that no one touched on:

In reading Haskell (and apparently Idris) types, a name that starts with a lower case letter is an unbound type variable - sort of like a template parameter in C++. The `a` in each of the Vect's must be the same type but it can be any type (picked at the call site, for any given call).
They demoed it for Linux command line and touted that, so I doubt it.
Nobody is giving up a choice at the moment, but if Free Basic becomes a thing, there won't be a choice in the future. That is the problem people have with it.
Almost everyday I hear people complaining about how Comcast/ATT have monopoly in the US and how they are exploiting the helplessness of people. How is FreeBasic any different?
For a lot of people, the only internet they will know will be the version that FB thinks is right for them.
This is less a question about choice, more about net neutrality.

One big problem is never addressed by these initiatives: Pharmaceuticals. The OP doesn't even mention the word.

Composting human waste into biogas works. Composting it into something akin to fertilizer, not so much. People today are flushing away incalculable numbers of drugs, especially antibiotics, that cannot be spread on land. Such schemes may work in developing countries where the average user isn't on drugs regularly, but the average american is on at least one regular prescription. Amongst older people (55+) one is near universal and many are on five or more.
There were already free automatically-validated CAs before Let's Encrypt.
Same experience here in Norway. Subscribed, unsubscribed after a month as the content compared to the US/UK catalog was severely lacking. On reddit around that time there were a few 'top 10' lists, things like '10 documentaries on netflix you must see', that sort of thing, there were only ever about 3 of 10 available here. The service is by no means cheaper here either.
It is! That's what is so cool about it! Idris lets you write an append that will work for any X and Y chosen at runtime, but will check that the result must have length X + Y at compile time.
I hope this gains traction. The more interesting thing would be the UI of Android/Jide and all the apps running in parallel with legacy Linux.

For instance, they recommended installing on a flash drive, but want the drive formatted as fat-32. Instead the drive should be formatted to F2FS for performance with flash storage.

Imagine launching native Linux eclipse right from this desktop Android ui. And run the native Netflix app in a second window. Golden

Well, to Netflix' credit they offer everything with original audio track and never forced the local (german) audio track on me. A setting that Amazon still can't consistently provide for their paid video selection, which rules out half of their content for me.

Same here in Switzerland. For a moment it hyped and everybody had it, now i dont know a single person where i know he still uses it as the content barely did expand, and really is not much. Next to that we have hundreds of really good gray streaming sites (its legal to pirate here in switzerland) in the german room, which each has more movies and series available.
This issue is not about having a particular choice or not having anything. Accepting this paves the way for facebook to control the internet that a majority of people are seeing for the first time.
Also, it is not really a land-grab as the title says, it is grabbing an untapped market with millions of new users. Facebook most likely wants to mine data from a new potential market.
This depends on what you mean by "with". As you say, you can't sit down, bang out some ordinary Haskell code, and expect GHC to give you an executable that will do real-time as well as you can in C.

That said, it's perfectly possible to write a DSL that handles scheduling, uses GHC's type machinery to track memory use and execution time, and have GHC generate a program that will generate C code that meets hard real-time guarantees. In fact, someone wrote it, it's available on hackage (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/atom) and my understanding is that it's used in production for control software in the auto industry.

Like their current original content, they would just sub it out to another organization, which would provide them the content. I could see them going to an existing organization that may not be entirely linked to a network (at least not in as competitive a way) and using their new. The BBC for example, or NPR if they had a video cast equivalent to their audio one.
valid point.
Was anyone expecting Google to build the cars?
Yeah, but you get used to the quirks of your language+editor. Shifting a block right or left isn't hard with a good editor.
Interesting -- I thought the key to getting into a good PhD program was letters of recommendation, publications (not even first author), and fellowships (NSF, etc).

> a heavy focus on the GRE

I've never heard of someone getting into a program based on GRE scores... bombing the GRE is certainly a red flag, but things like recommendation letters from big names are way more important.
The problem with evernote is not too many features.

The problem is the crap architecture behind its synchronization model that leads to a sub-par user experience.

Often times on iPhone it only syncs new hyperlinks added after I explicitly open the app.

The thing has no proper handling of simultaneous edits on different devices - leading to conflicts - after all these years with so many programmers there's still no merging algorithm.

The versioning is based on taking snapshots every couple of hours last time I checked. For real??!

Is this the best a billion dollar company can do?

There monetization strategy is not coherently supported by their product implementation.

If business use and collaboration is what they aim to monetize - why such weak and limited features for that?
(Sharing notes are very basic, again the poor handling of simultaneous edits...)

Apple is mentioned as another company with many products - but the overwhelming majority of both specific products and specific features work really well.

The same goes for Google.

These companies don't have to cover up for poor 5-10 strategy by pretending they are working of some mystical 100 year plan.
I do like rainbow delimiters. Parens and others show up nicely.
> farmers...illiterate, exploited by higher-ups... millions ...would have been much better spent by actually donating that money to the farmers

One of the things you might hope for connecting them is they could educate themselves, organise and fight back against being exploited. Maybe their kids can go online if they are illiterate themselves. That kind of thing is more likely to improve conditions than a modest amount of cash.
As a CA, Let's Encrypt should only be issuing certs to second level domains. If they want to issue one to a subdomain below that, there should be a check that the second level domain approves.
It also depends on what you're trying to do, you might not want a pan that gives up all its heat so quickly. For example, if you want to sear a steak and then cook it in that pan you don't want a pan that will lose all its heat as soon as you put that steak on it. For a task like that you want probably cast iron or at least stainless or something. Though good stainless pans generally have copper linings to help more evenly distribute the heat. If I were just frying an egg or something then aside from the lack of non-stick your aluminum foil would be just fine.

Interesting adjunct of the Red Queen hypothesis: species survival probabilities are largely constant over time, or conversely, species don't get better at surviving simply by surviving longer.

"Leigh Van Valen proposed the hypothesis to explain the "Law of Extinction",[1] showing that in many populations the probability of extinction does not depend on the lifetime of this population, instead being constant over millions of years for a given population."

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_queen_hypothesis

This strikes me as fascinating, and makes me wonder about where similar rules do or don't apply (e.g., business, organisational, or national longevity, hardware failure rates, etc.).
> They're clearly the monopoly power in streaming TV and whatever you call the competition that comes from Hulu or traditional cable companies is a joke in comparison

In some countries Netflix is the only choice. Your right to be at least a little terrified. A few years ago Google was in the same position. Everyone loved them. Google could do no wrong. Now we're in a situation where search has been monopolized by an advertising company.

Everyone is upset about the cable company monopolies, while at the same time happily handing Netflix a new monopoly.

Glad thats too late. At least in my environment Facebook communication pretty much died out. I always wanted a bot, actually i always do on any platform, and i hated that they made it so super hard.

I may will use this for Advertisment tho once it gets public. I heard people on Facebook love to get ads thrown at their faces.
Netflix wont become a lucrative monopoly because they own/control neither the content that they distribute (except for the few shows they produce) nor the distribution channel (the Internet). Moreso they have no pricing power; they faced a huge backlash the first time they tried to increase their subscription fees and only just managed to raise it by $1. Unless they can convince their customers to pay much more so they can sponsor and buy much more content, Netflix will be at best the largest among a group of streaming services you have to subscribe to to get all the content you want.
I agree the comparison is taking it too far. But the US model is fascinating. E.g. consider newspapers wishing to be able to report from the White House. Want your journalist to be able to get a good seat? Want them to have a shot at asking questions? Then behave.

Want to get access to high ranking officials? Same thing.

Instead of throwing anyone in jail it's a matter of strangling them of access so competitors gets important information first or gets to be the ones askin their questions.

Occasionally it doesn't work. Like when a newspaper gets hold of something important enough to be willing to risk their access (such as the Snowden documents). But for tilting the day to day reporting of politics these methods have been honed to a level where they are remarkably effective.

Speak for yourself. I've worked in print and manufacturing before starting programming - I've seen factory workers disregard female supervisor orders and regularly fake the tasks, commenting on her "lack of sex", "hormones", even to their face and regularly behind their back etc. At the same time they would shut up and do their shit when told the same thing by a male super. I've seen old department manager lead print finish section with a bunch of women in low skill/paying roles literally talk to them like they are his lessers and he was actively hostile and attempted to sabotage a woman who got hired as an engineer (which outranks him in terms of skill).

I've seen real sexism, and I've also seen discrimination based on nationality where it actually impacts people every day jobs and hiring/firing/promotions.

Calling the things I see described as examples of sexism and racism and what I've personally seen on job is a joke compared to what women and foreigners had to go through in low skilled industries with more uneducated and older people.

Programmers like you live in a bubble - I see people like you complain about culture/wages/work conditions in tech industry without having any grasp on what the world looks like outside of tech. I've met guys who work with electricity or work on highly dangerous positions where their life is at risk at any moment and your first mistake could very well be your last, people working in hazardous environments that 100% take a physical tool on you (eg. high probability you will end up with cancer and the likes) - and even with 20+ years of experience at the same job they were making about the same what I was getting when I started coding and my pay only grew since then. I earned more than a person who went through med school and if I fucked up nobody died or got disabled. Programmers have it super good right now and the industry is filled with highly educated smart people
The LSTM would be trained against an existing high quality Rust code base and it's IR; so I wouldn't expect a bunch of unsafe literal translations.

Google doesn't want to build cars. Google wants to be the Microsoft of cars, to relegate the Fords and GMs of the world to hardware-builders akin to IBM.

It is a mistake to try. As I've said in a hundred other threads, some basic autodrive functionality has been available for years and every focus group has dismissed it. Speed regulators, automatic enforcement of follow distance, the automatic seatbelt (which only existed to delay the airbag requirement) anti-distraction devices such as entertainment systems that lock down at speed ... all would be trivial to implement but have been summarily rejected by the general market. The concept that Google will somehow implement all of those things at once, and that people will buy in, seems fanciful.

I still haven't seen any safety numbers that account for the most dangerous driving hazard. I haven't seen any evidence that drunk people crash less often in an auto-drive car. All on the road so far have had driver overrides, which a drunk would of course be able to use. Nobody has dared to put drunks in charge of these things. So we do not know whether they will reduce drunk driving accidents or not. It might perhaps increase the issue if lots of drunks decide to rely on autodrive cars, creating a greater opportunity for them to wrest control from the robot.

And I've yet to see the google cars react to unusual situations such as a person directing traffic or boarding a ferry. Those driver overrides, which allow the drunk to take control, remain necessary.

Did you read the article? If you did, you would have seen this quote from former CEO Libin in 2013: “What winds up happening at Evernote conferences is that people go and they say, ‘Oh, I love Evernote and I’ve been using it for years and now I realize I’ve only been using it for 5 percent of what it can do,’ ” Libin said. “And the problem is that it’s a different 5 percent for everyone. If everyone just found the same 5 percent, then we’d just cut the other 95 percent and save ourselves a lot of money. It’s a very broad usage base. And we need to be a lot better about tying it together. And I think we have. We’ve got a few things we’re launching over the next few months to help with that.”

He recognized it was a problem. At the time, he also thought they had a strategy for dealing with it effectively, but obviously Evernote didn't. They've had a ton of layoffs, and he stepped down earlier this year.

Sidenote: If you disagree with a headline, you should probably either read the article or not comment.
