1. Vue uses the actual DOM not virtual DOM like react

2. BOTH react and Vue can be learnt in a day

3. BOTH can seem daunting when you're making production app (Vuex, redux, webpack, Vue-router, react-router...)

So, I don't not agree with 'learning curve' that's thrown at React. Both Vue and React are amazing. If you want to use them properly, you as a developer has to spend the time to learn.
Ouch. Even TechCrunch didn't give ProtoNet a writeup before the YC blog announced them. Good wishes to the founders. Hope things get better for you over there!

To echo what Paul said, this will not be a browser you will want to use as a replacement for all your day-to-day browsing. If you try to, you won't end up happy.

Web compatibility is a long road, and it's crucial for us to be able to know what missing functionality is most important and the places where we need to focus on performance the most. The purpose of the package is to help us find and prioritize bugs and missing features. We want to know which sites are the most broken (and, even more importantly, which missing features are breaking those sites). From the Web developer side, we also want early feedback on use cases that may be slow today, so that the browser engine can eventually become a great experience for everyone.
Yes. Pretty much this. You do need some updates though, and Microsoft hardly does a good job of describing what each update does from WU itself, so hope you like looking up each individual update on the MS website.

Eventually they'll just start obfuscating what an update does on the website as well, if not lying outright.
All the discussion is focusing on comparing it to apt-get. Instead, see it as a useful tool for scripted application installs for Windows.

The main benefits, in my opinion, are:

* Scriptable *

For example, here's a script I've used to build a new Windows dev box: https://gist.github.com/jongalloway/ffc3a8c71dfdab4245bc

* Silent, no-BS installers *

Chocolatey packages are supposed to point to silent, no-nagware, no BS installers (specifying the correct command-line args for silent, lightweight installs if needed). Instead of hunting for the right "Download" button, just find the package on Chocolatey.org, maybe check the release history and comments if you're concerned, and off you go.

* Dependencies *

Since Chocolatey is based on NuGet, dependencies are a first class concept. That means that a tool that requires a specific version of imagemagick (random example) would depend on that version, Chocolatey would ensure that the deps are installed first. That has other impacts, such as making it easy to provide a customized version of an existing application (e.g. https://chocolatey.org/packages/EthanBrown.ConEmuConfig) or allowing you to build a meta-package that rolls up several other packages (e.g. "web dev loadout" or whatever).

If you're looking at Chocolatey, I highly recommend Boxstarter, which takes it to the next level with support for all kinds of things you'd want when automating machine builds on Windows: http://boxstarter.org/

I'd agree with this. Leasing office space for 60 people - in a desirable location that has affordable cost and can accommodate some future expansion - is a slow process. After that, preparing the space and moving in takes extra time. Add even more time for an area where real estate is expensive and the vacancy rate is low. So your working conditions are not likely to improve in the short term (next few months), even assuming that management is looking for new space right now.

40 square feet sounds like way to little space for a developer. That's just a bit more than a 6x6 foot cubicle, which is the kind of space I'd expect to see allocated for a phone support person, not a developer who needs to do demanding intellectual work.

If you don't want to quit, your best bet to get more space (and higher productivity) might be to try to negotiate a work-from-home arrangement.
I fail to see the connection between tmux and vim. Vim is one of a billion programs i use with tmux inside terminator.
A shocking number of people don't realize just how bad it is there. And that there are, in fact, concentration camps of historically unimaginable sizes operating as we speak.

It's a mixed bag. That morally reprehensible money raises awareness of exactly what's going on, and just how abused their citizens are.

One wonders if, ever there were a just war, it wouldn't be to free the North Koreans.
Can you elaborate? Does the tmux book need more info on copy/paste/clipboard?

The issue is that your criticisms of C range from superficial, to incorrect, to straw men.

I didn't read OP as dismissing Go &c, just an acknowledgement that they are getting a lot of attention, along with their tooling.

OP didn't say what he was using C/C++ for either, so it's weak to make a comparison where none was implied eg, JSON API. That entire post was a very roundabout way to quibble about the use of the word "hype" by going on an otherwise unprovoked diatribe against C.

So it's better to not publicize the conditions and to not contact any of the people inside the country with concentration camps?

The more contact the people can have with outsiders, the better, even if it provides some tiny amount of financial support for the regime.
"Multiple sessions, switching between them" is multiplexing. "Kept open, persisting" is orthogonal, I agree. The parent said "tiling" and I assume they were referring to, well, tiling - putting multiple non-overlapping windows on the screen at the same time by dividing up the available space.
> Generally any program that can handle a suspend and resume can handle being persisted across reboots.

This is not the case for very many of my processes. Are you suggesting DMTCP or something? That won't work with most of the stuff I'm running in terminals.
That's a simplistic view. I'd argue the more you understand something the better chance you have of changing or defeating it. Add to that, the people who reside there have a chance to see and speak with someone from outside without the constraints of state propaganda.

Finally, economic sanctions don't work very well - as demonstrated by Cuba, Russia and North Korea. They hurt the people more than the regime.
I met a lady of Korean origin on a flight from Dalian (China) to Tokyo. She was on her way home, after visiting siblings in North Korea. She had Japanese citizenship, so it was allowed. She told me that when her sister spoke privately of the good weather, she would thank the Dear Leader for his grace.

On a previous visit, her host had proudly presented a bag of emaciated sesame seeds as a gift. On this visit the gift was reciprocated with a bag of lush Japan-grown seeds. Nothing was said, but at that moment her sister's face showed realisation.

Encryption may be necessary for privacy, but it's an aspect of manner of communication.

And time, place, and manner restrictions on expression are limited by the First Amendment (case law gives them slightly less protection than content-based restrictions, intermediate rather than strict scrutiny.)

And encryption restrictions that permit it for certain uses and not for you others are, arguably, content-based restrictions.

This phenomenon feels trivial - Think of 3 - X11, X13, X17, X19, X21, X23, X27, X29, X31, X33, X37, X39 - how many of these pseudonumbers will be divisible by 3? I count 4 where X is 0, 1, and 2, one time each for numbers ending in 1, 3, 7, and 9.

Just based on this knowledge, I know that a prime number is guaranteed not to be immediately followed by another one with the same ending 1 time in 2.

I'm not sure these fellows have found anything particularly interesting, but if so, and I have missed something, kudos to them.
No, it would be interesting even if it only happened in one base. It's still unexpected.

>Why? The US government could pay off all of its debts tomorrow by printing money but the hypothetical situation where it would 'need' to simply won't arise.

It could arise pretty easily if international markets lost confidence in the USG's ability to repay. In terms of wealth, I mean. Of course the government can print money to pay in dollars, but from an investor's perspective there's no difference between a country that inflates its currency and a country that only pays a percentage of obligations in an uninflated currency.

Most US debt is short term. It has to be rolled over, and it has to be rolled over at very low interest rates. That was the real genius of QE - they found a way to print money and lower interest rates at the same time.

>And I suppose Japan has managed to remain solvent with ~220% debt/gdp by being a superpower as well?

Japan has remained solvent because that 220% number isn't real. If you subtract out interagency borrowing it's more like 130% (or it was, anyway, the last time I looked into it), which, while not ideal, doesn't exactly put the country in a league of its own.

Which would you rather be selling after 30 years - a $1.5m house, or a $150k house?

Also, house prices do not necessarily go down when interest rates go up. If interest rates are rising because of inflation people rush into the housing market looking for an asset that will hold its value. You may end up with the worst of both worlds - $1.5m houses (in constant dollars) and 12% interest rates. Just because all you can afford is a $150k house doesn't mean one will be available at that price.

What Your Customers Really Wish You Knew About Them
Propaganda exists not to convince. Propaganda exists to define what the rules are, so they can spot people who deviate. If "dogs" was an illegal word, then anyone that says "dogs" becomes an way to spot people prone to illegal activity.

Dictatorships really don't care what you think, they care what you DO, and more importantly, they care what you can openly discuss and with whom. Making it easy to spot those likely to rebel is the goal of propaganda, who gives a hoot what anyone thinks.
I don't think he's comparing them to animals. I think he's saying that they're being treated like animals.
This is great news; with the CS & ML basics covered, we in the industry [1] are only left with instilling some common sense into the graduates :)

In academia, it's publish or perish, so much of the cutting edge research is over-engineered (over-researched?) and too brittle to be relied on in production. Not to mention lacking a usable implementation.

Because in practice, many business problems that call for automation and ML can be solved using the simplest of techniques to a satisfactory degree. The challenge fresh graduates face is rarely advanced math. It's usually solving the right problem and making the solution robust enough to be reliable in production (+communicating this to all stakeholders).

Model interpretability and your ability to analyse errors and iterate the solution are worth way more than a few percent gain in accuracy (accuracy/f1 are rarely the measures most relevant to the business goals too; the cost matrix is usually trickier than that). Pulling every opaque deep learning library under the sun into a system that could be solved using a few regexps and ifs to get a 5% KPI boost is not a good idea.

Building practical Machine Learning models is as much about solid engineering and understanding the business objectives as it is about math&theory, though the math cannot be skipped. We're not nearly at the stage where some "generic ML in the cloud" can cut it, wherever there's real money on the line. Successful systems are still very domain specific, built with significant SME expertise.

Women and men caught by China are sent back to NK.

Traffickers in China however will sell NK women.. and will make trips into NK to recruit women.

In fact, once they are in China, it's the threat of being sent back to NK, that prevents them from going to authorities for help.

Wikipedia has some info on human trafficking in NK also:

Did not expect Godwin's law to be invoked so soon but I will give it a shot:

>The Chinese city where you get to do that is called Dandong. I read somewhere it was the most humane of Chinese cities, most having become a polluted nightmare these days...

If he was being ironic I must have missed it. He seems to regard Dandong as the pinnacle of Chinese economic ascendancy when the city actually has a reputation for rampant violent crime thanks to smuggling and drug trade that occurs across the border.

>Pluralism and individualism are regarded as the greatest enemy. I understood the significance of being able to drive a car anywhere you want, when you please, where you please - as our guide told us in North Korea you only travel big distances by bus or train, when you get permission.

Internal visa is an evil system, but this paragraphs just reeks of material and moral superiority. Hey why don't you just become a rugged individual like me and save up for a car when there is only three scheduled trains every week?

>North Koreans supposedly believe that the entire world is in awe of their achievements.

That's a lot to ask for a paddy field in the middle of nowhere.

>The man has some genuine dignity.

Again, really hard to figure out whether it is sarcasm or not.

See, I am not interested in defending the NK regime. However the author/photographer shows a rather disappointing lack of understanding, respect or the slightest empathy to for his subjects. Hence his pictures, while technically sound, are no better than the millions of photos taken by Western tourists in North Korea.
Then you might be surprised that it's a mathematical fact that the last digit of primes is evenly distributed (among digits coprime to the base), no matter what base you choose. This is one way of stating the Chebotarev density theorem:

I'm confused by your comment. You seem to be saying two different things:

1) The music and choice of narrator is getting in the way of the (presumably valuable) content.

2) The content itself, regardless of the choice of narrator or whether or not there's music behind it, is not useful.

If it's the latter then why complain about the former?

For some reason I've ended up using a combination of i3, tmux, and Emacs window splitting, all at the same time. So three different programs that do something like window management, each with its own set of behaviors and keystrokes. This sounds like it should be a nightmare, but it's actually not that bad.

Others have mentioned the additional benefits of tmux beyond window management, but I also find that, much as I like i3, it's actually pretty hard to quickly and intuitively create, manipulate and delete window splits. Ie, top-bottom, side-by-side, rotate splits, stuff like that. The containers thing just seems unweildy, and just getting windows into the right containers always feels like a fight. I used to use StumpWM, and while that had its own problems, you could bang things next to each other for a second without having to really think about it.

Part of it is probably that I end up very rarely needing top-level window splitting, so I never get used to the keybindings. Splitting in the terminal and in Emacs takes care of most of my needs; I want to see different programs side by side no more than once every few weeks.

PS: There's a program called Sway that's basically a Wayland fork of i3. I keep it updated on my machine, and every once in a while amuse myself by using `startsway' instead of `startx'. It's coming along nicely, and you get that nice feeling of being retro and advanced at the same time. http://swaywm.org/
