I appreciate your library, that's pretty cool. I just want to point out that some (most?) regex libraries support a whitespace-insensitive mode, which allows you to write out the raw regex in a way that's considerably easier for humans to visually grok:

(?x)

[(),]

| "(?: \\. | [^"\n] )*"

| '(?: \\. | [^'\n] )*'

| \/ \* [\s\S]*? \* \/

That works in python, at least; I don't really know javascript so I can't speak to that.

About Engiy

Engiy is a BT search engine, in order to solve the Bittorrent protocol itself does not implement resource search function.

Currently Engiy total index to around 200 million magnetic link (duplicates removed), and 200,000 day rate. Just from the data, said, Engiy should index is the most comprehensive resource fastest Bittorrent search engine.

Engiy obtained through DHT network resource information to the user is downloading, including file name, size, etc., specifically, to achieve a Bittorrent in bep_0003 , bep_0005 , bep_0009 , bep_0010 four agreements.

Because of this, according to the Bittorrent protocol Engiy only get information to info torrent file, so Engiy on the server does not save any torrent file, at the same time, the tracker does not provide any service, generally speaking, so that means Engiy at large most countries can legally operate.

Meanwhile Engiy not provide any services in addition to BT resources search outside. Such as video online play (you can use as Baidu network disk ). Engiy search results are usually just a magnetic link, which will help the Internet to share resources for download, you also need to install additional software to download (such as uTorrent , BitComet , Thunder , etc.).

Engiy front end uses on Bootstrap , so pages are responsive, you can use any equipment, such as computers, mobile phones, pad, etc. use it.

Sensitive content

If Engiy index to content infringe your right to justice, or you have the copyright, please contact us , after verifying the information, we will remove it.

If you search for related promotional terrorism, child abuse, bestiality, etc.-humanity, anti-ethical, when anti-moral resources, you have an obligation to promptly us feedback.

Engiy originally developed by Node.js developed, but after running for some time to find, memory, and CPU usage are beyond the control that VPS operators will automatically kill the crawling process. To know Engiy is only running at a minimum of $ 10 per month with a lower VPS. Later, with the Go has been significantly improved after the re-implementation of memory and CPU usage, currently running in good condition.

Engiy will open it? Yes.

Exactly. A tax creates the correct incentives whether you personally care about the externalities or not.
This is so on point about one of the toxic corners of engineering culture - the strange insistence that only those who love programming above all else in life can be good at it.

Aside from being a great way to squeeze extra hours out of naive new grads, it's just totally off base. As this blog post touches on, one can TAKE PRIDE in one's work and be motivated to do a great job without having to love it.

The lady who cleans my apartment once a month does an amazing job, unlike the 5 or 6 people I tried before finding her. Is she passionate about cleaning bathtubs? Of course not. But the difference between her and the others is that she takes pride in doing it superlatively.

And that's how I hire engineers too. I really couldn't care less about whether you're an [X] developer because you love the technology or because it's a steady paycheck that feeds your kids. What I do care about is that you're considerate towards the people around you (and that includes the people who will come after you) and that doing a good job is important to you.

Not everyone has the opportunity to do something they're passionate about. And if they could, we'd have a world with an enormous shortage of both programmers and janitors. But everyone has the opportunity to CHOOSE to take pride in doing a good job. It may not be inspiring, but -- speaking from experience -- even if you're flipping burgers you can make the job more fulfilling (or at least less soul-killing) by caring about doing it well.
I think this a flawed analysis of the economics of the situation. The entity benefiting here is the school, by avoiding having to pay for email hosting. That Google gets paid (in cash or otherwise) for providing that service is not surprising, and not at all analogous to hiring an independent contractor.

IANAL, but it seems to me the important consideration here is who has duty of care regarding the students, and it's seems clear that it's the school.

Now, if Google lied regarding the scanning, the complaint may be valid, but that's a different argument.
I've hyper optimized this by just skipping to the tldr; comments. Thought I failed to do that on this article :(
> Their fears stem from a similar change that Facebook, Instagram's parent company, did a few years ago, which significantly reduced the organic reach that brands and influencers get on the platform.

I'm sorry but "brands and influencers" can all go take a flying leap. They're the exact thing I'd like to filter out of my online experience. For me, Instagram and other social platforms are only interesting to the extent that they provide a view into the long tail of human experience, and the massive surge of eyeball-seekers into these spaces only serves to dilute and pollute.

Instagram may get a lot of guff for being vapid and shallow, but historically they've been uniquely resolute among social platforms in their refusal to make life easy for brands and influencers. They've only partially succeeded, and I suspect this move is a compromise attempt to divert motivated attention seekers out of people's daily feeds, or at least into a revenue-generating funnel.

In the age of 100% computer assisted lawyers and courts, why can't 710 lawsuits be filed?

> Being a layman in this area my question is: what prevents them from filling a proper class action?

Litigating a class action involves not just litigating the merits, but litigating the propriety of filing as a class action. E.g. is the class composed of a definite and ascertainable group of people? Are the facts common to all class members? Settling a class action also requires court approval, whereas setting a lawsuit in which all plaintiffs are joined does not. This adds a whole bunch of motions practice.

In a case like this the plaintiffs would likely win on class certification, since the same alleged harm happened to an easy-to-define group of people. But it's a bunch of extra work for the lawyer, who is probably proceeding on contingency.

Rather than taxing oil, we could simply remove it's subsidies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_subsidies#United_States

I've been looking into synfuels, especially petroleum analogs, of which there's been over 50 years of research.

I do find it genuinely exciting. The same benefits of petroleum (safety, stability, portability, storage, and very, very flexible use) apply to any synthetic analogs.

The "problem" is that you pay full cost. Most synthesis methods lose about 50% of the input energy (mostly in hydrogen electrolysis). Where petroleum has historically offered 100:1 energy benefits, and is now typically delivers 20-30x the input energy, synfuels would cost you energy: 1:2 or worse. The equivalent energy cost increase is 40-60x that of present sources. That's not objectively a bad thing, but it's a tremendous shock to a system based on cheap energy.

The research as I said is impressive: Brookhaven National Laboratory (US), M.I.T., and the US Naval Research Lab, going back to Meyer Stienberg at BNL in 1964 (the suggestion itself came from M. King Hubbert, who'd first projected peak oil, in a 1963 paper). Progress, however, has been fairly scant, with only very small-scale tests.

The advantage would be a fuel that's infinitely miscable and substitutable for existing petroleum-based petrol, diesel, kerosene (a/k/a jet fuel), etc. And it can be carbon-neutral (via seawater or atmospheric-based carbon stocks). The disadvantages are cost and complexity as well as input energy. That said, I think it's well-worth pursuing.
I hadn't heard of Keras, but it looks easy to use. Can anyone comment on how it compares to the other deep learning helper packages out there?

I agree completely with your post, I have left adblockers off before since I do treat the net itself as Mos Eisley and almost just to see what sort of BS places are trying, but I may do it now just because its getting ridiculous.

As far as google ads and where they are placed I find that annoying as heck, to me its like having lag in a video game, why do I want lag every time I search something ? As someone who runs a company I would never do that to my customers, a split second of time from my customers eyes I treat as valuable and something I respect not to mention having to scroll down and chew up even more time.

I get its how they make money with ads, but my taste just finds it annoying, so its one more thing that keeps me away.

I flatly do not believe that Tesla did not know what was going on. The bid being as low as it was means that the savings were coming from somewhere. Presumably the materials used all had specifications so hard to cut corners there. That leaves labor. Come on, maybe they aren't legally responsible but morally and ethically they made a choice here.
I'm not a "prepper" -- I just want a way to get help for medical emergencies when there's a power outage mostly. I get where you're coming from, but a primary cell Lithium-Iron AA like an Energizer L91 (http://data.energizer.com/PDFs/l91.pdf) is up to 20 years -- probably more than the service life of the phone.

I have a phone like this from about 10 years ago that we leave at a family camp (super rough cabin with no utilities). With the loss of quality, power-outage survivable POTS phone service, this type type of device fills an important niche. 20 years ago, NYNEX (now Verizon) would provide dial tone for 10-14 days in the event of a blizzard or other power outage. Now you get 24-72 hours from cable/internet providers at best.

Another issue with conventional rechargeable batteries is they don't handle charging well when discharged completely. A cellphone left in a cabinet for 5 years is a brick in many cases.

This all counts as personal property (though of course people disagree about what exactly should count as personal property). An example of private property is owning a factory that you don't personally work in, or even owning an apartment which you have never lived in and don't intend on living in. The Sauk leader Black Hawk articulated something like this idea when he said

My reason teaches me that land cannot be sold. The Great Spirit gave it to his children to live upon, and cultivate, as far as necessary for their subsistence; and so long as they occupy and cultivate it, they have the right to the soil—but if they voluntarily leave it, then any other people have a right to settle upon it. Nothing can be sold but such things as can be carried away.

Locke[1] also believed that people shouldn't be able to own things that they don't personally use or hoard resources if they are scarce.

It's hard to believe that Tesla didn't become aware of this after a few months. Just like farmers who can't hire american people to pick their crop with backbreaking labor and low wages and who hides from hiring undocumented workers from mexico, they are morally responsible for treating the workers well.

US politicians should address this situation by working to eliminate b1 visa fraud. If it turns out not to be illegal to do this kind of job, we should change the laws to disallow it.

As someone who has crafted thousands of complex regular expression rules for data capture, here is my take:

1. This is a fine idea to aid regex newbies in crafting their expressions. I see this as a gateway instead of a longterm tool. The expressions won't be optimal (by no fault of the tool), nor will they likely be complete, but that's not the point. If it helps reduce the barrier(s) to adoption of regular expressions, then I can heartily support it.

2. To the people who say they use regular expressions only a handful of times a year, thus it's not worthwhile to invest time in learning the syntax, I offer this: once you know it, you will use it far more often than you ever expected. Find & replace text, piping output, Nginx.conf editing, or even the REGEXP() function in MySQL. It's a valuable skillset in so many environments that I expect you will use weekly, if not daily.

3. Ultimately regular expressions, like everything, are extra difficult until you know all of the available tools in the toolbox. At that point, you may realize you wrote an unnecessarily complex expression simply because you didn't know better.

if you think about the butterfly effect, calling it schmetterlingseffekt just sounds way more badass :p

but you are right, schmetter does not originate from "smasher" (as i and probably most german speakers assumed), but instead from "Schmetten", which means butter or cream.

this also means that this word is translated perfectly,
but the german word has a whole different meaning nowadays,
i personally have never heard the word schmette.

thanks for the motivation to look at this, feeling a bit smarter now and finally know why the schmetterling is called butterfly. :)

Matching other people's expectations about grief is a fool's errant, and I completely understand the impulse to just hide it - in fact, I believe that's a good default plan.

When my mother died from cancer, there were two extreme reactions from immediate family and friends: the first group believed that I was no longer a functioning human being and needed acute help, the second group told me a few days after her death that I should be over it by now since parents die and everybody is fine with that. The interesting part is, both reactions happened without me knowingly showing any outward signs of extreme grief, I had simply told them I needed some time to myself. I'm very very glad that I didn't try to make people "understand" how I felt at the time.

When my cat got sick and died from congestive heart failure two years ago, some of the reactions I got were "I bet you failed to take care of her properly and that's why she died", and "whatever, just get a new one, they're interchangeable". Again, I didn't communicate to the outside how I felt, because it's utterly pointless. If people react like that without any data, I can only speculate how bad and besides the point things would have gotten had I actually opened up about it.

As soon as you grieve publicly, people will start telling you how to move on and why your grief is inappropriate. But grief is not for other people to participate in the first place, it's a personal experience. Especially when it's a pet (and the male cat owner is probably the most stigmatised culturally), many friends and family won't understand, and it can't be your mission to make them understand.

In my opinion, being outwardly stoic while grieving is almost always the best option for everybody involved.
