What exactly do you wish Twitter had done? Allow longer posts? That's not going to have the big positive impact some people think it will. Hosting longer posts on Twitter isn't going to bring more users to Twitter or keep more people more engaged with it.

This is a big deal because Google is leveraging their dominant position in search to coerce people into using it as a social platform.
Like it or not, one of them is going to lead one of the world's most powerful nation. Educating yourself on their policies is worth it imo.

Wow, when Google makes this available to businesses they're going to be able to charge whatever they want and every business is going to have to use it. This is not good.

This is a really interesting project. I love the concept of a fast, in-memory geospatial database - kind of like Redis for Geo (interestingly Redis itself has grown some basic Geo features recently, but nowhere near as comprehensive as this - http://redis.io/commands/georadius ).

The way you can subscribe to geofenced areas is particularly clever, especially when combined with the WebSocket protocol option.

The docs don't cover how to communicate polygons/etc over the protocol just yet.

I hadn't realised you could use unicode characters for identifiers in Go - very aesthetically pleasing: https://github.com/tidwall/tile38/blob/master/geojson/geo/ge...

I don't see that from Europe. Could you post a screenshot?
Just ignore the enormous risk or cost. Or how the EU does it (only slightly faster) for one moment.

Given that you, the creator, define the risk (dMFEA [1]) AND the "quality system" [2] (which is actually a process and has little to do with QA from a software definition or understanding), my guess is that the entire system for approved devices, drugs, and their requisite clinical trials has evolved for the big guys to eat the medium guys and prevent the small guys from even entering the competition. The final nail in the coffin is that there is ABSOLUTELY NO 3rd party risk or security analysis at any time or level - only what you say, document, and submit (claims [3]). They are only involved once there's a lawsuit - and every piece of documentation by the creator is "burden of proof" than the accuser must disprove. Now imagine a 10,000 patient study - how do you prove the drug was bad because it, e.g. blinded one person?

Is there any reason there can't be a browser experience that relies on data as well as some cached data? Browsers are getting better at detecting native gestures common in most apps and I know a lot of internet content can be cached. Won't this eventually replace the app store as it's easier, no one would take a cut and there'd be less barriers to trying new services?

I think there is some reluctance in people downloading apps. I personally avoid downloading apps on Android as I don't want them to be cluttered in "My Apps" section of Google Play, and seeing the updates is annoying. It seems silly but I get embarrassed by the low quality spammy apps I have downloaded in the past. Also, having a browser based model would allow for developers to push new releases without an antiquated versioning system. It's inexcusable that Apple has developers wait around a week on average to get a new version to the app store. I appreciate that they have actual people review each app, but 90% of the time is spent in "Waiting for Review" and the actual review process doesn't take long. I don't know if the queue is by design, but it seems excessive.
i dont think so. its the same thing that has always gone on, someone in power wants to push an agenda so they segregate people by fear. it was more focused back then because there were less sources people could be told what to fear.

A plagiarism scandal is unfolding in the crossword puzzle world
Localizing Logo has a long and storied history. Papert founded LCSI in Montreal, and LogoWriter, their implementation, was localized in French (keywords and all, but there are very few keywords) and used in Quebec schools. It was also localized in at least Spanish and Russian. Their current product, Microworlds, is available in English, Spanish, Russian and Italian (but not French).

I took a programming class in 11th grade in Quebec, with the old DOS version of Logowriter, running on 286s with no hard drives, in 1996-1997. It was pretty creaky, but you could make fun games with it with some effort.

And ends with imagining how a proposed but yet to exist system will function... while ignoring historical examples of many societies that did organize themselves by reputation that worked out quite well without seeing anywhere near the type of inequality that currently exists. And, of course, some that organized themselves that way and didn't work out that well, although still not with the current level of inequality.

For that matter, he doesn't actually show that even his imaginary reputation system is worse than our current monetary system, just that some of the same types of issues can happen.

And this is the root of the problem- lack of discoverability for apps.

Once you have several thousand apps (not to mention 1MM+), it becomes exceedingly difficult to find apps that are relevant to you. Someone might create a better app than the one you have on your phone, or one that you don't even realize you need, but how will you know about it?

If you can only rely on the App Store rankings and search engine, you are going to have to spend alot of time looking through irrelevant results- most people don't have that kind of time.

The result is (as brought up in the article) that app developers need more sophisticated 'growth-hacking' techniques outside of the ecosystem, which tend to be hit or miss depending on some degree of luck.

There have been several app discovery platforms like AppGratis and Chomp, but Apple has shut them all down. Apple may have wanted to preserve the Appstore as the single authority on their apps, but now they have created a more dangerous, and possibly existential crisis for themselves- irrelevance of the app ecosystem.

Why should I create apps (or invest in app developers) if my chance of success is less than 0.1%? As a consumer, I may still buy Apple devices, but it will be less because of the great apps, which will become increasingly scarce.
Interesting that it's a management buyout. It sounds like the head of Quicken has a significant stake in this buyout. So, obviously he has some amount of confidence in the company to put his own money into it.
Another successful Falcon 9 launch. Too bad about the booster landing. The barge landing is very tough; it requires drastic maneuvers in the last seconds to hit that tiny target. The land-based landing pad is much larger.

The Falcon Heavy launch was supposed to be next month, but that's slipped to late 2016, maybe.

It's a pity that rake is not included in the table at the bottom.

One huge advantage of rake is the ability to easily debug what is happening. A quick `p [filename, task]` lets you know what is happening. Even, if needed, you can quickly do

$ irb
>>> require 'rake'
>>> p FileList["foo/*"]

and actually play around with the libraries. If you know anything about ruby, and especially if you are looking to build anything other than a c/c++ project, it is definitely worth looking at.

Or it could be a desire to provide maximally relevant search results. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, Dr. Freud.

Not-a-disclaimer: I'm spending the year at Google (as a visiting scientist; I don't own stock and have no financial interest in its success). You might be surprised by how strong the desire is to do the right thing by users and make it easy for them to find what they're looking for. There's not always an ulterior motive -- happy searchers made Google what it is today.
Does anybody go directly to "google.com" any more? Most search is through the browser's search box.

ODNI Will Revise Declassification Fee Policy
If there was one piece of desktop software that I think the world definitely needs an alternative for it's Quicken. I've got about 15 years of my financial life in my Quicken file, and I probably have used the software at least twice a week, religiously, during that time period. I've grown so dependent on it in a way I've never grown dependent on any other software. If it were to stop functioning tomorrow, I'd be screwed.

It's funny because I'm sure I don't even use like 95% of Quicken. I don't use the budget, or the bill paying, or the charts and reports, or the tax crap, or the retirement planning or all the other various bells and whistles Intuit has decided to bolt on to its vast menu structure over the years. I use it as a checkbook register and as a way to plan the month so I don't overdraw my checking account (which would probably happen monthly if I didn't have Quicken), and to download credit card transactions weekly to watch for fraud. That's it. Surely those two functions are the MVP for any alternative.

There is no way in hell I am going to upload 15 years of financial history to "the cloud". Not a snowball's chance in hell. And yes, I've tried GnuCash. It's just not as good. Clunky UI, double-entry accounting, Yuck.

> Your statement makes no sense

What purpose does this statement have in a civil discussion?

> Individuals have the right of association

Yes, they do. I am specifically talking about corporations' ability to spend money on a political campaign. By ignoring this I have to believe you are not interested in engaging in thoughtful debate.

> Unions, for example wield much capital with a small number of people involved, are you suggesting that they, too should be limited? Major political parties are associations of people with significant financial resources once combined with few people making the real decisions. Should they be limited? Should non-profit organizations be able to take part in speech under the First Amendment?

No. There are already limits imposed upon individual spending towards an election. It is not a stretch to say there should be limits on corporate spending. Many countries have different kinds of limits on political campaign spending while still allowing people to associate freely.

> I'm point out the contradiction, which is pertinent to the thread, and suggesting you choose

You're free to do so. I feel it's off topic.

> Or do you really just want what you want and the definitions are fluid depending on how convenient they are to your viewpoint?

I have already answered your question. If my answer is not to your satisfaction, then that is your problem. I'm not going to confine my answers to a) I agree with sbuttgereit or b) I want what I want. That's absurd.

> As for the original intention of our democratic republic... I'd be interest to know where you get your sense of original intention

I get it from being raised in the American educational system. Given the number of grammatical mistakes in your last comment, I wonder where you got yours.
Yep. Ruby springs to mind. The creator, Yukihiro Matsumoto ("Matz"), is Japanese. He co-wrote the first Ruby book, which was in Japanese. And a year later, he co-wrote the first book for Ruby that was in English.
> The guy should 100% get more credit, and if this happened to me I would always be a little hurt about it, but at the same time, would it be a big deal if it had never extended past a thesis somewhere?

That's not the argument. He's not upset Arduino was a huge success, nor is he all that upset that he is not involved with Arduino (as far as I can tell from this article, as it's written very professionally). The argument is that there is a rather significant fight between the co-founders of the Arduino project about who owns what of the Arduino brand. This article paints a picture that in reality, the product behind the brand was essentially ripped off of someone else's hard work with very little contributed back to the original project. I don't think anyone wouldn't start to feel rather frustrated if someone forked their open source project, made it hugely successful (while complying with licenses and other conditions, but without directly contributing back) and then started fighting within themselves over who "started the project all on their own".
It's similar, but not the same. Moving from C++ to assembler is dropping from a high level of abstraction to a low level of abstraction. Moving from, say, Python to Javascript is just switching one high level language for another - there is no "lower level." You could just as well save the trouble of the second language and run a type checker or linter on javascript code itself and wind up with the same degree of "safety", such as it is.
Interestingly enough, I started this project after reading about Ripple and Whuffie, hence the name.

that's what I was thinking. Trump is HUGE on Twitter. Bernie is HUGE on Twitter...this seems exactly like every other time Google plays "me too".
Apple has started to require IPv6 support for app store approval. I see this as an interesting approach that could push adoption, at least on the backend side.
Seems a likely explanation. Its the engineer in my that goes wild here though, I think "why not have the uplink on a smaller flotation unit being held in place by a sea anchor? Or given the amount of time needed to monitor the return is relatively short (you know to the minute when it "should" touch down) could you launch the uplink on a hex a copter so that it could stand off from the barge, free of vibrations while the rocket landed? How about a 2.4Ghz cross link to an independent platform with its own uplink? How about using a towed fiber optic cable to a remote relay station away from the barge? Etc. I totally understand that this is a small (and in the larger picture unimportant) part of the mission, but the problem calls to me :-)
Early of my claim "no tracking, zero logging" was true but a teething mistake.

At the beginning the logging files was huge and my disk quota on Openshift free server quickly run into exceeding disk quota error. I was counting on the statistic data on Google Ads to be aware of the number of users.

Tracking is everywhere, logging is necessary for security concerns. Privacy comes from the fact that people are using dynamic IP addresses to access the web and most importantly, the server neither logs base on login user, nor couples login user with the IP address.
Consumers are not choosing between web apps and native apps. The problem is Path to Discovery and Launch.

Discovery: Google too is an Appstore to most people. You tell well educated people on Desktop to go to Facebook and they do this: Google.com -> Click Search Bar -> Type Facebook -> Click First Link. No matter what first link is. The appstore serves the same purpose to this group.

Launch: If you removed most app icons on people's phone and replace them with web app bookmarks, many will not know the difference. This is a shortcut for them.
It's hard to tell really. If the barge was bigger it basically means more leanient constraints for the final approach, which could result in a softer landing. Remember that Falcons can't hover and thus have to achieve perfect timing for the final burn. If you constrain time down to almost zero and space down to a few meters and the initial velocity is terminal velocity + pretty fast horicontal movement, it's almost a wonder that they're already doing what they're doing.
Depends. If it's just the beginning of a project or a side project where I'm definitely the only person working on it then I generally just use it as a backup system. If it's a more substantial project then I try to remember to commit and branch off before embarking on new feature additions, major refactors, or really anything where several hours in you could find yourself cursing and deciding that particular adventure was ill advised or is currently not worth it.

I'm not sure there's a generalizable pattern there for which has a lower actual time interval between commit/pushes but I suspect that I tend to be spammier with them in personal projects.
It's suspicious. Because at gigahertz you definitely cannot go above the radio horizon even at very high powers. So it must be trying to either do non-communications tasks, or point upwards into space, so it can do comms with things in orbit.

I'd argue further that Twitter has done close to nothing to make their search a useful feature in the first place, which is why people aren't searching Twitter with "Donald Trump". If I was Twitter, this would be very worrying. All they've managed to do so far is "firehose search", which is only useful for realtime events unfolding. They probably should have been thinking about "topic search" and "person search" for a while now...
It's really just an Atmel AVR CPU, which you could buy on a development board before Arduino. Atmel has a tool chain for AVR CPUs, which is a version of GCC, so it's open source.[1] I've developed for such boards without any "Arduino" stuff. The Arduino project put a simplified IDE on the front of that.

Their real innovation was social. They built a community around the thing and provided documentation that wasn't addressed to EEs.

I'm so glad they didn't choose the PIC.

Of course, not.

(Though I wonder if you can make a pedantic argument, that if the domain of your one-way function is suitably restricted (eg to passwords humans actually come up with) they do become bijective.)

>It is against common understanding why Canada's more numerous bachelors degree holders seemingly doesn't contribute to a more productive labour force. If investments in education do not increase labour productivity (as predicted by nearly every model of labour economics), then what measures do affect productivity?

The "education system" is not an education system. It is a selection system used to choose who gets one of the at any one tine limited number of jobs. Increasing the number of people in that selection system makes it less effective, hence the lowered value of a degree, the need for internships, and increased stress on personal networks for finding jobs.

Standard Work is an incredibly interesting concept that I've just started looking into for organizational design.
Interesting ideas..

..tangentially, why even bother with reputations? The big issue with money based economy is that money is all cleansing. All the shitty things you did to get your money can be forgotten and your money used to buy yourself into a position of power, prestige, or even good standing.

If we could tag money's history of exchange we could maybe avoid the both the issues of reputations (big if obviously). Individual transactions could be judged by the prior history of exchanges. Though this could be used as a proxy for reputation or to construct a reputation, the reputation is not required to complete the transaction as a seller. The seller only needs judge the transaction on the history of the money offered itself.

Ideally this would create a situation where 'clean' currency would progressively become more valuable than 'dirty' currency, encouraging clean wealth creation.
