As I wrote above, it means that the role is permanent as far as anyone knows. It does not mean that you will permanently be doing that job. It means that, based on all available current information, the job will continue to exist forever.

Of course, people can and do make mistakes. The fact that someone chooses to use a word to describe something does not mean that it's necessarily an accurate description. They may be lying, or they may simply have judged the situation incorrectly. How many startups say "we are the next Google"?
How does this comment contribute to the discussion in any meaningful way? Microsoft's browser is actually quite advanced when it comes to new JavaScript features. The biggest problem for developers with Edge is that it requires Windows, a slow internet based testing service, or a VM to test. But really if it works in Chrome, Safari and Firefox it generally works in Edge as well.
Even "sold by Amazon themselves" is something of a concern:

There's no differentiation in the warehouse between "item as sold by Amazon" and "item as sold by Joe's Hard Drives and Fulfilled By Amazon".

People have commented on this before, with returns and exchanges, unique identifiers on something that they bought back from themselves (can't remember the reasoning) not being present, and Amazon saying "well, all items with a given SKU get grouped together".
The word "nuclear" was dropped from MRI (nee NMRI) to improve its influence. And, surprisingly, I was even able to find significant documentation of this fact [1], I was honestly expecting it to be folklore at best. Though my own research [2] kind of contradicts the idea that 'nuclear' was ever a popular part of the name. Or maybe it was [3], I dunno.

This seems to be the important quote on the findings: “We can give psilocybin to depressed patients, they can tolerate it, and it is safe. This gives us an initial impression of the effectiveness of the treatment.”

All the legal hurdles they had to pass to make this happen are quite impressive. Hopefully they've eeked open that door a bit for further study.
To a degree. Most Linux boxes don't have a couple dozen programmable IO pins and the other connectivity options for external sensors and such.

In the case of this project, you'd also have to do some modifications on the image-grabbing code. They're using a module that's specific to the Raspberry Pi camera module.
Short of browser useragent sniffing (yuck...) is there any way to make use of ES6 features in a browser agnostic app? Seems like the only way to work is with a transpiler and series of polyfills.
This agency takes content from Howard Stern about Louis CK's site in order to promote themselves, and then doesn't link to Louis CK's site so we can see for ourselves what it's all about.

That's what I hate about the Internet.
No. There are some that actually use the Raspberry Pi hardware, such as PiFM[0]. Others merely use GPIO, which of course can work on a number of other SBCs (eg a Beaglebone Black) or anything with GPIOs. The only Raspberry Pi specific thing here is how it connects to the webcam, because the Raspberry Pi doesn't expose the camera as a standard v4l device, they have their own way of doing it.

OP is a spammer just here to boost their website.
Read the article, it is not pointing the finger at Roundup's main ingredient "glyphosate". But they are putting toxic chemicals in their products without listing it anywhere on the label:

"POEA — officially an “inert” ingredient — was between 1,200 and 2,000 times more toxic to cells than glyphosate, officially the “active” ingredient."
Slava, Horizon looks cool, and I'm a huge fanboy of RethinkDB. However, in the demo video you write queries client side. How do you protect against users modifying front-end JavaScript and thus the queries?

> Younger people have been migrating their time away from Facebook because of the saturation.

Therefore Apple is becoming uncool? Kids are moving away from Facebook not because old people are using it and that makes it uncool. It's because old people are using it and that means old people are watching them with it. Facebook is also just getting worse and worse as a product, while things like Snapchat are getting better and don't have parents/employers looking over your shoulder.

Re: Android, these are the same arguments we've seen since Android first started getting market share, yet Apple is still chugging along just fine. Market share is only one part of the story, and it's so far from an accurate indicator of "in" factor (exclusive things are often "in") OR of product health/profitability.

"People" are getting tired of closed systems? Which people? FOSS advocates? Hackers and tinkerers? Thank god there are 100x more people with equivalent checkbooks and less idealism when it comes to which devices they purchase.

Their meeting up may have been consensual, but what happened while they were together might not have been. Also, the parent doesn't say both parties wanted to meet up. So, the meeting-up could have not been consensual. It could have been a stalking situation or maybe they just happened to run into each other by chance.

Something like this was actually my original idea - just monitor a directory for changes. Then I've still got the issue of running this in the background, constantly, though, so the uploads occur automatically and keep running in background even after user logs out.

At the few datacenters I worked at the drives were being crushed and put into bins for recycling. Burn in would only take a day or so. A thousand hours is a bit too long for a burn in cycle.
Actually this project is pretty specific to the Pi and its camera, though it can of course be modded for other hardware.

"So it just happens that the horizontal distance covered by the Picamera’s image is roughly equal to the distance from the lens. If you are 10 feet from the lens, the image is about 10 feet across, 47 feet from the lens, about 47 feet across, and so on.

Of course, other cameras may have a different field of view and won’t have this easy to determine correspondence."

Cooked meats are carcinogenic though (eg http://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/di...) aren't they? So ... are you saying glyphosate is known to be mutagenic and likely to cause cancers or that the common understanding on cooked meats is wrong.

I'm not clear how the mutagenic properties reported in cooked meats appease "anti-gmo sentiments" as 'organic' meats are as likely to be cooked as others.

You're being very vociferous in your arguing perhaps you got carried away in your claims for Monsanto products?

Just imagine how much better Google would be if user experience was 100% of their focus, not shared with advertisers (Google's real customers the way it works today).
What is OP?
This is the question I always get stuck on with these "front-end only" frameworks. How do you prevent DoS attacks or scrapers downloading your whole database? What is the information security model?
So what I still don't understand is how es6 module imports work with requests. Even reading through that blog post it's not obvious to me. Does the browser make an HTTP request for the file on the server based on the relative location on the server? So if I have type="module" and app.js is in example.com/js/app.js and then I have an import statement for ./foo/bar.js it makes that request to example.com/js/foo/bar.js? I imagine all these requests would add up and will block if so. With HTTP2 maybe it would be OK to do it this way but I see myself creating single JavaScript builds for the foreseeable future making this sort of module support unlikely to help in anything other than development (which still is nice).
What a tragedy of justice that you used an absence of evidence as a deciding factor. There is so much logically wrong with that, even in correlation.
Sounds exactly like every time I smoke weed. Including that disappointing expectation of becoming sober and blissfully unaware of my flaws. Have never tried any psychedelics, but some of my bad "trips" with weed (sometimes involving delusions and hallucinations) make me wary.
I would say that that is indeed the key difference.
For many tasks involving herbicide, there's a choice between these chemicals or labor intensive and exhausting use of heavy machinery and hand tools. There may some day be a proven link between Roundup and cancer. But there is a known high risk using more labor intensive methods. Agricultural work is one of the most dangerous occupations and it's due to tractor rollovers, falls, and lacerations. Suspending the use of herbicide would mean hundreds (thousands?) more gruesome deaths per year.

I've got a small coffee farm with some wild areas that I'm clearing and I started out wanting to do everything "organic". After 1 year it was clear that prepping land the old fashioned way would be significantly more hazardous.
That's true, by about 10:1. Are you saying that we shouldn't bother licensing electricians or getting permits for electrical work because people are burning down houses in fires? It feels like you're presenting this as some kind of refutation to a point I'm not making?

See the FAQ http://horizon.io/faq/

For convenience, this is the section taken from it that addresses this exact question! (I imagine other people may be thinking this)

How is Horizon different from Meteor?

Horizon has philosophical and technical differences with Meteor that will result in vastly different developer experiences.

Horizon is a small layer on top of RethinkDB with a narrow, purpose-built API designed to make it very easy to get started building realtime apps without backend code. Horizon isn’t prescriptive – you can use any front-end framework without any magic/customizations, and once your app outgrows the Horizon API you can use any backend technology (e.g. Node.js, Python, Ruby) and any backend framework (e.g. Rails, Express, Koa, etc.)

By contrast, Meteor is a much more prescriptive framework. Horizon is a reasonably small component that has a very clean separation with the database and the frontend, while Meteor is a much more monolithic experience.

Another major difference is architectural – Meteor uses a LiveQuery component built by tailing MongoDB’s oplog. This approach is fundamentally limited – it’s impossible to do many operations efficiently, and even the basic functionality is extremely difficult to scale.

Horizon is built on RethinkDB, so the LiveQuery functionality is in the database. This allows for much more sophisticated streaming operations, and scalability is dramatically simpler because the database has all the necessary information to allow for a scalable feeds implementation.

This is correct. If you have money with Lending Club or any of these other unsecured P2P loan companies you should understand exactly what you've invested in.
Mike's `react-rethinkdb` project is really cool, but it's based on exposing the entire ReQL language to the browser. We thought this approach wouldn't work well as an industrial-strength product -- ReQL is designed to be accessed from the backend, and exposing a full query language to the browser introduces a number of challenges. Security is really hard, learning curve is steep, there are DoS challenges, the protocol is too complex to write platform-specific extensions, etc.

On the other hand, Horizon exposes a simple API/protocol that's easy to learn and easy to secure. If you need more functionality, you can import Horizon as a Node.js module and start writing backend code that accesses RethinkDB directly. The learning curve is much easier, it provides an upgrade path for sophisticated apps, and feels like a more robust product.

(I don't mean to disparage `react-rethinkdb`, I think the project is awesome, it's just a philosophical difference in approach)
For those thinking about using this, it bears mentioning that there are a few caveats to script type=module that makes it difficult to use with a lot of modern workflows, namely:

1. No way to dynamically import a module (the article explains this).

2. All imports must be relative or absolute urls, so either ./foo.js or /foo.js or http://example.com/foo.js

This means you can't npm install lodash and import the string "lodash".

3. All imports must include the file extension (.js). So even if you set up a server route for /lodash it would break as soon as one of lodash's imports didn't use .js (or it imports another package). This is assuming lodash is written with import/export; it's not so it wouldn't work at all.

4. Until http2 comes around, this is probably not something you want to ship to production (unless you have a small app with only have a handful of scripts being imported), so bundlers are here to stay for a while.

It might be possible to work around 1, 2, and 3 using Service Workers, I wrote about this a while ago: https://matthewphillips.info/posts/loading-app-with-script-m...

You can let someone cut hair without requiring them to learn all about those chemicals. They just need a few hours to make sure they know how to disinfect things. Let them be small until they want to dye hair.

It's easy for a bunch of high-achieving people to imagine that these requirements are all great and easy to follow, but there are people in this world who are never going to finish college but still know how to cut hair or cook food or arrange flowers for other people. These people seldom have any significant lobbying voice and when they are choked out you don't see them. You just have some honest person trying to provide honest labor and being told "no" by the nobility.

The people passing these licensure requirements should stop and think really hard about what it's like for a person of little means but with genuine interest to comply with them, and only make the requirements the minimum necessary to satisfy public safety.
I have suggested it. :-) There is no transparency when purchasing drives, in that we don't know what percentage of the price of the drive goes to the reseller (like CDW) and what percentage goes to the manufacturer (like Seagate). I proposed becoming a reseller just to cut CDW out and pocket the profit margin that CDW lives on.

DISCLAIMER: I have not run my brilliant idea past any lawyers, so it may not be legal. We have not done this (yet).
I wouldn't be so sure on that. The R&D transfer and ready human capital was definitely profound in SpaceX's case, but if it was that incremental, why didn't NASA or anybody else do it before?

I think almost the sae can be said for Hyperloop. There's no fundamentally new technology that needs to be engineered for it to work. Maglevs are common in many countries, evacuated tubs aren't complicated.

All that said, the US seems to be the wrong place to start Hyperloop. Regulation and land property will most likely be the biggest hurdle, not technology, especially in California. Hyperloop seems to me like a perfect project in China though, in regard to property rights, regulation, city planning, human capital in the high speed train sector, as well as crazy supply side economics.
Bunk

Maybe, but your post is overly emotional in a bunch of ways -- and worse, uses language that's really quite a turn-off, viscerally, in a technical forum -- and as such, doesn't exactly inspire me to follow up on any of your links. If anything, it leaves the impression that even if the Intercept article was sloppy (or worse), then most likely your analysis is engaging in some form of cherry picking or other rhetorical manipulation, as well... so why should I bother?

"There is insufficient evidence to conclude that glyphosate preparations containing POEA are more toxic than those containing alternative surfactants"

Surfactants, in general, are toxic. There is nothing special about POEA. Used properly, surfactants can be of good use and result in safe improvement of agriculture.
Yes, it makes separate requests, like if you made separate script tags (just using module semantics instead). With HTTP2 it will be ok, but you will still need something that understands your dependency graph so your server knows which modules to include with the request.
Gp is referring to 'max capacity'. As others have noted 10k/hr is conservative.
In my experience spinners work great for async calls, but not so great for blocking synchronous computations. There is probably something that could be done though with a little bit of creativity though...
How does access control work? For example, if I have a database containing a table "users", and a table "files", and the files table contains a column "owner" (pointing to the users table), then how do I prevent the client-side database engine from accessing the files which do not belong to the user that is currently logged in?
This is an excellent point.

So many people forget about the human costs of agriculture.
For history and social sciences absolutely.

For high school level Math, not really. The downside I can see is that you stifle any innovation in teaching methodology.
You can't protect from the client modifying the JavaScript code, and that's ok. Horizon ships with a full security model (http://horizon.io/docs/permissions/) that lets you specify exactly what data each user can and cannot access, which queries they can run, etc. We're going to continue expanding the security model to include DoS protection, and any other issues that may come up.

So while the user can change JavaScript as they please, that's ok; if they try to do something they're not supposed to do, the server will just reject the query.
I remember when I was subscribing to The Economist, and they had a dark pattern in the process to trick you into paying for another publication. I strongly considered cancelling (and only didn't because I was ordering for other people as well.)
Facebook and Google have been able to do this for years, and you used to be able to also using their platforms.

For Facebook, does anyone remember when they released their auto-tagging feature, it would tag people who weren't your friends too? They quickly removed it when it started auto-tagging random people in pictures you took in public.

For Google, this was an initial feature of one of their mobile apps (I forget which), which they removed because people were creeped out by it.
But the reason the Fed don't build cheap schools is the same reason the Feds do buy million dollar helmets.

Regulatory capture extends to every level of government so switching the level of government you deal with won't change the problem.

That doesn't make sense. Insurance companies can make policies conditional on certifications whether or not those certs are mandatory. Likewise, they can sub-insure away some of the risks to the engineer without the mandate.

You ask for a policy on your house, they ask if a person qualified by XYZ standard approved it.

If we want to make certain protections mandatory, we can at least move the regulations up one abstraction level. Instead of "you must meet these standards", it could be something more general like, "you must have an insurance policy against these events for this much", and people go with whatever insurer is willing to take that risk. That would allow for more experimentation about which standards are good enough or too stringent, by the people who have something to lose if they're not strict enough, and provide an impetus for obsolete bits to be removed.

This is not dogma but computer science research, you need to find the right tools for the right problem.
