InChI is not designed as, nor can used for, what you propose. Last I checked, conversion from an InChI to a structure format was not a supported option, and only exists for testing purposes. Which is not to say that people don't use for that. (Also, last I checked, there are inputs which cause InChI to segfault. And there's no spec for how to interpret InChIs other than to run the reference code.)

The InChI normalization step may also change the chemistry. For example, it may put things into a preferred tautomer form or charge state. This is essential for its goal of linking disparate records, but it is not chemistry preserving, and can be worse than passing an SD file to your nanomachine factory.

It was designed as "deterministic ID for sharing", yes, but not for sharing structure information but rather information related to the structure.

The most "concise" solution is to record the positions of the nuclei and the total charge. Then any quantum mechanics program will be able to reconstruct (to the desired level of approximation) the electron density of the molecule. This is the one you reject.

For good reasons. As you say, you want a nomenclature that can help with identity and similarity, and electron density is a very slow way to do that.

But such nomenclature is driven by human concepts. Fundamentally, there are different reaction rates depending on the relative orientation of two molecules. We see this in molecular beam experiments. For example, from 1979, http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/00092614798... "Molecular beam reaction of K atoms with sideways oriented CF3I".

InChI doesn't have a special name for "sideways oriented CF3I", even though a complete, concise system would have to be able to provide a name for it.

Instead, we've come up with concise approximations - a SMILES string, a bitstring fingerprint, etc. - which are tractable for the purposes you want, so long as we stay within relatively normal chemistry. But it's still humans who categorize things into, say, "aromatic" or "chiral", so our approximate nomenclature has to partially encode how humans think of chemistry.

The Game of Life is much simpler than the Reality of Life.
It depends on what the three megabytes consists of. It could be quite lucrative.

The sad truth is that the 10% that _don't_ do this are the lone wolf / indie devs or small shops focusing on a single app. It's the large corps that _should_ be held to a higher standard but aren't, and take advantage of this fact to data mine the shit out of their customers.

For some reason every bank on the planet needs to know my location, send/receive text messages on my behalf and listen to my microphone in order to display a damned account balance.
Find recruiters you should not do business with (linkedIn)
Use this link: https://www.linkedin.com/company/ed-hunter

Anyone who has been on linkedIn lately probably knows it has turned into a Facebook for recruiters. People gotta make a living but this particular meme-generator seems to really bring out the worst in recruitment "humor". I've found that it's followers (which you can helpfully identify which ones you're connected with) should be unfollowed as it is really just plain unprofessional to like such a thing on the platform you are using to do part of your job. Probably just the old age but seems to me people with a lack of sense, should be given a wide berth.

> You are correct. However the rules are determined by what the majority of miners say the rules are.

This is simply factually wrong.
Full disclosure, I work for Scrapinghub. Our tools are Scrapy and Portia, both open source and both free as in beer. Scrapy is for those who want fine-tuned manual control and who have a background in Python. Portia is the visual web scraper for those who are non-technical to technical but don't want to bother with code.

Web scraping is everywhere, even if it's not necessarily spoken openly about or acknowledged. The publicized perception of web scraping is fairly negative, but doesn't take into account the benefits of data used in machine-learning or democratized data extraction (as in the case of this article or for building public service apps like transportation notifications), or the simple realities of competitive pricing and monitoring the activities of resellers.

Researchers, academics, data scientists, marketers, the list goes on for those who use web scraping daily.

Glad you enjoyed the article! I'm hoping that more examples of ethical data extraction will start to turn the tide of public perception.
The second attack was added in an update after you were criticised, no? It hardly counts.

Alright, I put it far too rudely, but I do find this aesthetically displeasing compared to raw pixels and Contra looked completely unplayable, and it shows massive slowdown and audio distortion, so I don't get the point.

This is great work. Forgive me if I'm missing it, but since the blog post implies you're aggregating and cleaning the data from several lists, is there any way to see the latest additions (RSS etc?) rather than directly searching for individuals?

It would make it more useful for flagging up potential stories, as well as researching stories journalists are already writing.

disclosure: I work for a company that provides real-time data to journalists for story discovery, and I know we'd certainly be interested

On this case, some scripts using Beautiful Soup were enough to get the job done, but I was completely unaware of Scrapy, seems like a fantastic tool, if I would have known about it I probably would have used it.
Apple Bees would be my guess.
>ramen

there's no good ramen in seattle, people may claim otherwise but they don't know. I'm not too fond of lil woodys either.

Seattle food is not unlike seattle itself: overpriced mediocrity. For whatever reason many in seattle are convinced that all of their mediocre offerings are "the best", I think this may be due to the fact that seattle is the first big city some of these people have lived in. Top Pot donuts is a good example of this, $2 each and would be unacceptable anywhere on the east coast, but seattlites are convinced they are the best donuts in the world.

I wouldn't be surprised if Atlanta has much better food overall

> and it's not helping anyone except the sprawling profession of drug-warriors, and the black market gangsters

High prices are reducing drug usage. That's basic economics. Food is cheap, so people eat a lot and get fat. Alcohol is cheap, so people drink a lot and destroy themselves. It's not hard to deduce what cheap heroin would do.
It's looking like our only hope left is the recently declassified WMF search engine. I get that people didn't like Lila doing all of that grant in secret, but I find myself not really opposed to to Wikimedia taking on Google. In the long term, someone is going to have to do it.
Again, you're citing the source control system as the primary feature. TFS is an entire application lifecycle management suite, not just version control. You seem to (continue to) ignore this. Its closest analogue is probably the entire Atlassian family of products.

On TFVC:

> it sends way WAY too many files up and down constantly

It sends literally zero files anywhere until you interact with the server, as any sane server-based version control system would do. I don't know about your workflow but I don't know what you consider a reasonable amount of I/O to sync a workspace. You can elect "Local" workspaces since around TFS 2012 which can work completely disconnected if you choose.

> branching/merging is expensive as all heck

It's folder-based branching and can be done very quickly/cheaply if you don't store your entire company in source control. And how well does Git handle large files? Git is opinionated on branches and creates them cheaply/quickly; TFVC evolved from CVS-type systems where this was not the prevailing mindset, but again I don't know what you're considering "expensive." Maybe where you work?

> even Microsoft's internal teams are utilising Git and Github

Which isn't evidence of anything other than it's their current tool of choice. That has a lot less to do with future direction of their enterprise products than you're assuming here.

> Microsoft's own consultants

> Microsoft's internal teams

> the Windows team within Microsoft

Do you have insider info or are you just trying to sound like you do?
> I doubt Google anticipated this.

It's nice of you to say, but Google has many very smart people who spend all their time thinking about search. I would be surprised if they failed to anticipate this outcome. Maybe they thought it was worth the cost, especially as a company that values openness.
How could this legislation possibly pass constitutional muster? You're essentially forcing companies to create code for you.
Machine elves, obviously.
This is awesome --> "In order to make research progress faster, we are additionally supplying a new version of a pre-trained Inception-v3 model that is ready to be fine-tuned or adapted to a new task. We demonstrate how to use this model for transfer learning on a simple flower classification task."

Fine-tuning these models for different applications has been a great way for me to build out new things without relying on an enormous fleet of K40s to train a new set from scratch. Lots of progress in this field, thanks to the whole team for releasing this.
No, it was in the original post.

FYI, cannabis certainly can be addictive, just without serious physical dependance. And even on the mentally addictive side, obviously far less than opiates - but certainly there are people who fit the definition of being addicted to weed.

This is a weird comment, you go from disputing my organ harvesting claim to just repeating Chinese propaganda while at the same time accusing me of doing the same but for the Falun Gong.

Perhaps you can explain where China gets the organs for their record setting transplant rates? Research has shown the organs they account for coming from death row inmates outpaces the number of death row inmates by several orders of magnitude (several thousands of transplants supposedly came from 14 death row inmates in one province that harbored the most Falun Gong during the early 2000s). Please point me to some of these debunkings, because I can't seem to find any by a reputable source. Meanwhile the EU and United Nations have clearly accused the Chinese government of harvesting Falun Gong organs.

But besides that, the Chinese government itself has admitted that over 2,000 Falun Gong members have died as a result of torture and abuse while being held for religious beliefs (in and of itself a human rights violation). Given that the government has been accused of lighting people on fire in public simply to discredit Falun Gong I wouldn't put it past them to harvest organs as well. At one point Falun Gong members made up 50% of long time prisoners in China. If organ harvesting is happening in general (which has been a long standing accusation), the statistics say Falun Gong members were highly likely to be among those abused.

Sure, the president himself might not have ordered a massive conspiracy. Doesn't mean the government doesn't harvest the organs of religious dissidents. It's very strange you'd use the term "legitimize" though, as if people needed to be "legitimate" in order to practice a religious belief.

Oh, and just to put things in perspective we have plenty of holistic medicine crazies here in the US. We just don't demonize, imprison, and execute them.
I didn't mean to insinuate that libertarian-leaning individuals universally abhor substance abuse and believe that the government should do something about it. I mean that the argument is if the government wants to reduce substance abuse, any attempts to accomplish this through force of law are futile.
We are all, evidently, deputized slaves of the state.

To achieve the same result, I've now got a browser shortcut (aka omnibox search engine) for an "I Feel Lucky" Google search restricted to the MDN site for whatever keywords I'm looking for. This means I type "mdn js history" and Chrome picks up the "mdn" prefix to use my shortcut, expands it into https://www.google.com/search?q=site:developer.mozilla.org+j... and I end up on the same page you mention. (The "feeling lucky" search isn't perfect, but it's usually good enough for me...)
So for Scrapy and Portia, they are both free as in beer, specifically because we believe in the power of open source. Scrapy actually precedes Scrapinghub and was certainly not developed as a marketing tool.

Charges come with large scale crawls (above certain limits on our platform), additional products like Crawlera (our smart downloader that routes requests from a crawl through a pool of IP addresses to avoid bans), datasets, and for us to handle complex crawls for companies outsourcing to us.

Our model is that there is something for everyone whether you are looking to dip your toes into web scraping (free), use it occasionally (usually journalists) or dependent on web crawling for your business.

Your initial question startled me to my core ... it's the kind of question which reminds me why there are such deep divides between humans.

Maybe it's a question of ideology or lack of experience. Possibly you've never seen a friend caught in the web of addiction and so have never understood the deep desire to support someone, to treat someone, to help them overcome addiction.

Having understood the mechanisms by which a person can descend into addiction and criminality, I'll take the legalisation of drugs with an associated support structure over the simple banning and criminalisation of the drug users any day.

I'd also suggest that the status quo you speak of is actually changing before your very eyes.

Another way to look at this is a blow to openness and a concentration of Google's power. The PageRank scores still exist, but they now will be known only by (some? all?) Google employees.

Therefore, the data is no longer open and power is now more concentrated: Those who know someone at Google can find out their page rank score; the 99.999...% of the rest of the world cannot.

> If the TV networks had a clear picture of viewership, they would be more effective at negotiating licensing deals.

The TV networks are still stuck in the mental space of thinking of viewership count as a relevant metric because for them more viewers equals more value for ads.

But for Netflix the revenue they make is not advertising dependent so it doesn't matter whether a show has high viewership as long as it helps Netflix retain subscribers. A small show with a cult following that helps Netflix retain a subscriber for a longer period of time can be worth more money than a big box office hit that brings in a burst of short term viewership.
Or it comes down to the fact that Occam's Razor is just a cheap rhetorical device that's employed to lend a luster of legitimately onto what is otherwise just a subjective intuition. Fully comprehending how many assumptions are involved in a given line of reasoning probably takes a lot more time and thought than some guy on the internet is devoting to his HN comment.
Angular, React, what's the big difference? "JS on the frontend" isn't "short term", and there's always fads to navigate.
"In the last 30 days."

I mean this kind of makes sense, doesn't it? Netflix releases episodes all at once. Many people are going to binge or watch them very close to that release date.

Their survey was conducted in a lull for Netflix OG content.

Also when you can watch anything on demand, does counting what had the most eyeballs in the last N days mean much? Isn't "how much a show is watched at all" the better question?
Which isn't what's happening here. What's being transferred to the EFF is not the whole service, but one specific piece of client software which interacts with the service.

The "value" of heroin comes from it tricking your brain with chemicals that you need it and will die otherwise. I WANT IT GIVE IT TO ME == value, without follow up questions? Similarly buzz feed tricks you with catchy titles. Oh look the end result was I clicked it, therefore it has tremendous value without further analysis.

> The real science says we need to pay attention to agriculture.

What's the source in question here? I've now completely lost you. Gut flora is elastic and can't tell us much about anything but what we eat in our own lifetimes. I see zero evidence anywhere I look that we should use this flora to figure out which diet maximizes long term health. If anything, it's more indicative of what we are eating than what we might eat that would be better.
But synonyms! I want to say that if I search for "London Ferris Wheel" and I find "London Eye" without the words "Ferris Wheel" anywhere on the page, that's fine.

However, 5 minutes looking through my Google Search History, and I don't see any examples where non-verbatim results would have been useful, so hmm.
I never thought of that, but certainly having a RSS feed is a great idea. I have not done it as the journalists have not requested it. So far they have been asking me for more spiders so Manolo would include visit records from other Peruvian institutions.
