I wish to be able to browse websites, which contain (a) text, (b) associated images, (c) low forms of interactivity, say, comments, or interactive graphics.

This is pretty much the web 2012, or most of German-language web today still.

For browsergames, let’s just use the same paradigm as with apps instead: Bundle them via node+webkit, and integrate a "run locally" API into browsers that automatically downloads a program and runs it locally in a sandbox, but seperately.

In the long term, for games we’ll need to develop a different concept anyway.

But there’s a good reason why no one develops 3D games in PDF, despite PDF supporting 3D objects, scripting, and modification of the document via scripts.
Thanks. It does sound easier to do as a hobby (with flexible routes and schedules) than as a business traveller.
The fluidity of employment argues strongly against it.

An employer doesn't train people, they hire those with the skill. If an employee is no longer valuable, the employee moves on. The employer has no particular interest in or control over the employee's career before or after their 'assignment'.

That's interesting, thanks for the references. I wonder if this is applicable to screen readers as well as Braille?
For anti-tank munitions two rounds work much better than a single larger round - the reactive armor is able to defend even against the larger round, but once it is hit once, it is gone from that spot until maintenance. E.g. the recent Ukraine conflict experience shows that many types of weapons can achieve successful penetration when (and only when) hitting essentially the same spot a second time.

And of course there are things like RPG-30 Kryuk to exploit that - fires two rounds, the first, triggering round is small and just enough to trigger the protective armor, and they're both fired at once from the same device to ensure that they hit the same spot just one of them tuned to hit juuuust a bit before the main round.
TLDR; It doesn't fix jetlag but it might get you started on the right path one "day" cycle sooner.

There isn't "one simple trick" and not have jet lag. Everyone will have jetlag after going through a large time change. Your body can only accomodate so quickly depending on the magnitude of the change. IME people recover 0.5-2 hours of time change a day. So if you go through a change, it will take anywhere from 3-12 days to fully recover. You don't even realize it until you've been somewhere for a while and one day you wake up and realize you are fully rested for the first time in a week (even though the other days felt basically fine).
I see a lot of todos for your books, did you already read these books and just didn't write down the notes or are you planing on reading these books and writing the notes "live"?
All of those things are doing gymnastics with ports because nobody can be bothered to ship IPv6. If you can bring v6 up you can assign every process an IP and start assuming ports (80 is the service via HTTP, 443 via TLS, 8080 via HTTP/2 gRPC, 9000 for monitoring, and so on). It's way cleaner than all the work around ports in the current state of the art and means you can Just Use DNS in a number of scenarios. There are whole systems around ports in pretty much every orchestration system and it's such an antipattern, really. Half of Docker's networking stack, a bunch of Kubernetes logic, Flannel, all of it becomes unnecessary and they represent attempts to jam the right way into limited IP and limited address table space on infrastructure.

IPv6 is practically built for containers, and, to Kubernetes's credit, they architected with that in mind. (Learned from BNS.) Weirdly, what I'm saying here was the original idea behind ports in the first place. There just aren't enough of them, particularly when half your space is shared with client sockets.

I want a world where v4 is pretty much just my control plane into the v6 cluster, since I'll die before IPv4. Google and far more importantly Amazon need to come up with a v6 story in their cloud offerings already. AWS has had a decade. This isn't just blind advocacy any more; the orchestration and software side is starting to build entire parts of the OSI stack because the network side of our industry is stuck without any sign of moving, no matter how dire the v4 situation.

> I love programming but find my mind can only handle so many hours.

I think coders in general are useless outside of a 7 hour window of programming. Sure, there's exceptions. Crunch time or when you're particularly inspired.

But my experience is that any place that insists on 9+ hour days is really just encouraging their developers to "veg out" for those hours past the healthy 7 hours.
It has been a standard practice to discourage tax laws by making them apply to everyone equally. But there is really no reason for that to be the case. Perhaps I have the advantage of having worked on Big Data problems with the NSA, and we live in a time when it is possible to write laws that allow people like you and me to have almost no "red tape" associated with our financial transactions. So, while I agree with your observations, I know that they are also a tactic used by the rich.
This is honestly pretty clear to understand - there's hardly anything there other than those general functional features you listed.

I think there's a difference between the cognitive load of the solution and the cognitive load of the implementation. The cognitive load of the general solution for queens is somewhat high, but that's why it's a well-known puzzle. But this implementation is practically a description of the problem itself. It's literally selecting (filter) from all queen arrangements (permutations) where the queens aren't conflicting (described via map and zipWithIndex).
Black hole has zero gravity at it center. ;-)
Moreover, gravity can stop light and other electromagnetic forces, but cannot stop gravity, so time is not stopped.
I've tried magnesium and water, but that just gave me diarrhea (which is a result of too much magnesium, I think). Haven't tried any of the others.

I also had stomach troubles from ibuprofen, so I try to vary painkillers (Paracetamol, Parkemed also seem to work), but fortunately I have less headaches now...

You are right, there is no mention of the turntable/stylus/preamplifier configuration at all.

I would guess that the Audacity people assume that people would be using a turntable plugged into a preamplifier with RIAA equilisation built in.

Interesting stuff, I've recently got interested in databases and did some toy programming related to them, trying to understand how they work.

I just wish the author had gone closer to the nitty gritty details of _how_ the data is actually fetched from the disk. How does Postgres store the data? What do the data files look like, how is the parsing done?

In any case I appreciate the effort. I guess I might have to dive into the source code myself.
Yes, the OP here [0] says that the query was one that was generated from ruby's ActiveRecord. Clearly, removing the sort clause would speed up this query. I believe the issue (from the ruby perspective) is using ActiveRecord's `User.where(name: 'Captain Nemo').first` instead of `User.where(name: 'Captain Nemo').take` [1]

What I wonder about is how to be a programmer for 30 years and not become an architect or worse.
As if life on Earth is this fragile with regards to temperature changes. Give me a fucking break. Even if global warming did somehow cause this, other life forms would seize the day and thrive under the new conditions. Life on Earth is fine when it comes to adapting to temperature changes. It excels at that. It always has.

This is due to pollution, period. Nothing more, nothing less. Global warming hysteria is a Hollywood fairy tale being pushed to rationalize forcing a carbon credit tax onto all of us. It's just another wealth transfer scam to keep the shackles on the defenseless and the less fortunate. If you don't understand this by now, you're an idiot, because everyone outside of your insulated propaganda bubble already figured it out ages ago. The people pushing this scam need to give it a fucking rest already and move onto their next one, because this one isn't going anywhere and they're embarrassing themselves at this point. If you're going to be evil, at least exude some competence.

Looking forward to this comment becoming light gray and unreadable as the asspained and talentless San Francisco fucktards working on their shitbrained dead-end startups extend their delicate index fingers (connected to hands that haven't struggled through an honest day's work in their entire lives) to click the downvote arrow. I'll wear it as a badge of pride. How about you spend some of that ill-earned VC welfare cash and buy some bleach to drink, you insufferable cuckolds. I hear it's 10% off on Amazon. Help save the world by ridding it of one more parasite.
My point still remains. Even if you have good encryption, pure reliance on that puts you at risk in so many other ways in which information can be accessed. Any time you see information, access your bank accounts, create an email, etc., your information is at risk, and that has nothing to do with the amount of encryption you're using, because encryption will only work during the data transfer/storage stages.

Pretty much everyone who thinks that the unemployed don't deserve state entitlements (Typically, because of the poverty of their character).

Nominal wage demands are held up at the bottom end by people needing to make a living wage. Yes, a skilled computer programmer asking for $7/hour could easily find work at the height of the dot-com bust - however, they'd still depend on handouts, be it from the state, or their relatives for survival.

And when we move down the wage track, things don't get any better. How would people already receiving close to minimal wage attain employability by lowering their wage demands?

This also only solve a problem for the individual, rather then society as a whole - it largely shifts unemployment around, and pulls everyone's standard of living down.
It's hard for me to argue with you, because I do agree that living in the suburbs and traveling to work every day, more then an hour each way, is simply insane. If you add the average commute of say 45min one way each day, and multiply it by the number of days you commute, it comes out to 16 days per year. That's 16 days of 24 hour per day driving. If you put it in working terms, then we must actually multiply it by 3 times since people usually work around 8 hours a day. So that's 48 working days. Basically you spend roughly 1/10th of your working time simply driving to and from work.

That said, I would much rather drive 45 min than spend 45 min on public transportation. I grew up in Kiev, a place with by all accounts very good public transport system, at least during the Soviet days when they still took care of the system. And guess what, it was awful! I also visited Boston, lived in Lake View in Chicago for 6 years without a car, and traveled through Europe and lived for 4 years in the center of downtown San Diego. And I can honestly tell you, based on my experiences, I would NEVER want to go back to using public transport. Maybe I am selfish, or maybe I just hate people, who knows, but being in the mass of humanity, at the whim of some government agency running the system, just doesn't sit with me. I know the freedom the car provides is in some ways an illusion. We still rely on public roads (most of the time) and gas stations are still a prerequisite, but I can't help breathing easier knowing that my car can take me any place I want to go and I can fix everything about it my self. It's a freedom thing, even if it's an illusion, a feeling that perhaps is hard to understand for someone from Europe (I am assuming).

I am not saying it is right or wrong, but it's inline with the mythology of America, and I like it. I do understand that diversity is important though, and there is no clear reason why there couldn't be more mixed use places like you describe. Perhaps if there were more places like Dublin (as you described, I'v never been) in US, more people could move there and be happy. All I am saying is I am happy with my car in South California, a place that's in general in love with their cars, and I am quite happy here. What can I say, different strokes for different folks.
Since this came up in a course recently, apparently jet lag is (at least partially) caused by:

1. Your circadian rhythm [1] being out of sync. In a nutshell, a reasonable amount of internal biology is synchronized to the time of day to improve efficiency. If your activity isn't in sync with what your 'internal clock' is expecting, you experience jet lag.

2. A limited ability for the clock to adjust to a new timezone. The direction of adjustment is encoded by a phase response curve [2] and is affected by exposure to light -- practically nothing else can shift it.

11thEarlOfMar has the right idea -- if you can avoid light exposure entirely, your clock won't shift and you won't be jetlagged. Otherwise, large doses of light at the right times of day are (apparently) the best cure.

This was actually my main concern when I posed the initial question of mine.

The question is that can these problems solved by just giving money to the people, or it does not change anything, or will it instead make matters worse.

I think that it makes sense to try to model it. I think that results of the pilots are interesting but I am not sure that they cover wider implications.
Having worked for Fortune 50's for most of my life, I'm not optimistic about that law. There are so many ways to adjust accounting that it is just amazing. And every company uses many offshores these days - they provide services and costs to get profits offshore. And they provide "services" that can be classified in any way they want. Really, that law sounds like just another deception for the masses who don't really understand how the system works for the rich.
I've been looking for books or articles on Database Architecture and internals for a while now.

I found this paper "Architecture of a Database System" [1] to be an excellent starting point, it's written by database veterans James Hamilton and Micheal Stonebraker and references other much deeper works.

I've always liked Pat Shaughnessy's work, Ruby under a Microscope was a fantastic introduction to MRI 2.0. I really hope to see more works like these.

I'll answer your question when you answer mine. :)

Nobody's reading this thread at this point, so the "status" stakes seem pretty low.
One possible explanation is the peacock feathers effect. People come into your home and go "Oooh, what's that?". The homeowner now has a chance to stand out from her peers.

Interestingly, most of the scrutiny of these early entrants into consumer IoT come from software developers themselves, who are already well aware that "all software is shit." (In the tongue-in-cheek sense of course)

Allowing access to FIDO U2F devices via this would fundamentally break the security model of U2F. It relies on websites being forced to go through a U2F-specific layer in the browser that ensures websites can only request authentication to that site. Without that, any website could do a forwarding attack where it forwarded the authentication request from any other website to the device and used the response to authenticate as you. In order for this to be used for a second factor, you'd basically have a separate authentication dongle for every website.
Agreed. Weddings are tough. You can't just win on price, it needs to be a win on expirience.

Client acquisition in the couple space is also not easy. Once you acquire the customer, the value has to come with that one wedding. We've considering creating this as a vendor solution that reduces friction between the vendor and clients. Then we can acquire vendors, and work on vendor retention. We're still really early here, so we're doing a bunch of trial an error as we launch.

Thanks again

The difference between using the malware itself to communicate via the web and using WebUSB to do so would be in malware detection. If an unidentified EXE hidden in your Windows partition is communicating via the web that's going to look a lot more suspect than a driver which is trusted by the system. The malware that installed the driver could remove itself after installing the driver, taking out another way to track it down.
I don't think it is so poor if you consider the benefits of cycling outweigh the risks. Most sports aren't done in traffic, so I imagine that cycling is relatively high risk.

Thanks for this. We've started experimenting with a brief that's a bit more visual, allowing for a client to select weddings that look inline with what they are looking to do.

Thanks, actually the team isn't a couple working together. Just a bunch of friends.
Depends what you mean by "large businesses". The stats are in table [1]. Looks like the biggest companies (1,000+ employees) account for about 40% of private sector employment. Add another 7% if you think "large" is 500+.

Of particular interest is that those numbers have been growing quite a bit over the last 20 years.

All the IOT features in the article are just 'remote control'. Nobody who used a television in the 80s 90s or 00s will be surprised that bundled remote controls tend to suck.

The good news for IOT builders: standalone remote controls have tended to suck too. On-device non-remote physical buttons also often suck.
I'd say both are important. Lower budget people would probably prefer a quicker cheaper less reliable test while higher budget people would prefer a more reliable and in depth test. I'm sure there will be cross over but my intuition is that maybe a third of each category would cross over, so by offering that alternative would expand your potential customer base by 40% using the previous assumption. Also, it'd be interesting if you could keep an anonymous database of any harmful results by area code with an easy interface on your website for people to search. You can add some call to action to get people to search their zip code and see what harmful substances were found in areas near them. This could lead to higher sales if there are negative results found. Maybe you can follow the same type of strategy where you ask them for their zip code and you can show them information of the risks in their area based off of scraped data from their municipal websites. I know my city has certain metrics that fail every few months, so providing information like this would be a great way to get them paranoid and want to follow up with a test from you.

Of course, the next logic step after the test, whether something harmful was found our not, is to send them information on items such as water filters from a company you partner with for affiliate advertising. Then for failed tests like mold or lead, you can send affiliate advertising material for lead and mold removal. Basically, send them to a page on your website with the same information as this pamphlet you sent them and on it you'll have affiliate links to earn extra money.

I lived several hours downwind of these fires in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia at the time and remember well the sun being blotted out for weeks on end. You couldn't smell it in the air but the daytime sky was a deep toxic orange, and, it was eerily dim, just like during the moments of a partial solar eclipse. Then the oil slicks and dead jellyfish began covering the beaches and we were told to minimize our time outdoors (obviously). "Being outside is like smoking two packs a day," we were told. The scale of these fires is hard to fathom, but many hundreds of wells were lit. We heard stories of specialized Texan and Louisianan firefighters living through hell and high water putting them out. Bulldozers' steel frames were insufficient to withstand the searing heat when in close proximity to the blazing well heads, not to mention the enclosed cabins being impossible for a human to survive within. Among their methods were to rig controlled explosions to starve the fires of oxygen and to use large metal domes affixed to specialized hydraulic arms to lower them onto the well heads and smother the flames.
