Saudi prince now owns more of Twitter than Jack Dorsey does
I never really used Digg myself, so I can't speak from personal experience, but I wonder how much is due to utility. A lot of the new user interfaces I see these days simply do not have the same utility as older ones did; there's been a clear trend in dumbing things down, called "minimalism". Just look at Gnome3; they removed all kinds of configuration options.

Reddit is a very "busy" site. But you can do a LOT on it; there's many different features packed into it. The same thing happened over on Slashdot: the old versions had more features, and their "Beta" version tried to "simplify" things which really meant removing features.

3 Reasons why I stopped using React.setState
Good points, though, I don't agree with "most people use the keyboard shortcuts anyway".

Most not-so-tech-savvy users I know, don't know keyboard shortcuts, find them hard to remember, clumsy and slow (at least until they learn how to really use them).

I think that googles decision was valid and the best compromise they could have made. I really don't see a way how they could achieve both, without compromising the user's privacy in a manner that doesn't require a specific browser or extension.
I can't work out whether this is a criticism of a corporate development culture (equally applicable to other tech stacks and legacy + reality of corporate world), or a "Microsoft is bad" argument, or possibly an ad hominem "only morons do MS, do you want to work with morons?" style argument...

Frankly I don't like the level of generalisation and apparent prejudice, and although I respect one's right to hold such an opinion, I think the conclusions of the article are wrong.

I think the interesting thing about Patreon is I keep hearing of people who individually found ways to create similar systems directly for a long time (pre-Internet). It turns into a sort of mail order subscription service where pay in for a future output of prints/some other output, or one-off buyers can buy things that are surplus. They build this group over time and eventually get to it full-time, so I think people just aren't used to this more modern model of being paid for art. Most artistic output is going to be niche by default in the general case, you have to find and develop your audience! It's a business like any other if you want your art to support you.
The thing is Sports is the key! Cable and Network television exists almost entirely due to revenue generated from Sports Viewers. Seriously, like the majority of your cable bill is used to pay for licensing to air live games. Cable is the only way for people to legally watch the majority of NBA and NFL games (in HD). We are making stride with stuff like NFL Sunday Ticket, but honestly those services still aren't great. When current license agreements end Netflix (and by extension Amazon, Hulu and whoever else) should back up a dump truck full of money to league offices and offer whatever terms they want. In the game of Internet TV you get sports and you win. It's as simple as that.

I don't believe that any of these networks competing services will ever take off because fragmentation is bad for consumers and they know it. Bundling is hugely important in this market. No one is going to be willing to pay $10 a month for a streaming service for every Network that decides it needs it's own. Sure a lot of people will be willing to pay for more than one but certainly not enough for all or even a lot of networks to go this route. HBO can survive that way but does NBC for instance have any show compelling enough to spend $10 for it separate from other networks shows.

This is a good idea, but how were those experts and "best papers" chosen?
It's a well known fact that for each research domain, there are a few 'competing' labs. How can we be sure the experts aren't biased and decide to promote their papers to increase their visibility?

What would be cool is some sort of Hackernews style ranking per research domain, with voting ring detection, the only voters would be "recognized experts" (from academia or industry) with enough karma in their respective domain.
Ask HN: Is Samsung becoming the new Apple?
Apple has been losing its mojo. Yeah, they still make a ton of money, but I feel like they're no longer cool.

I'm seeing a lot more cool stuff coming from Samsung - they seem to be more hip and in-the-know.

Case in point, Youtuber of the year Casey Neistat is putting together a party at Vidcon with Samsung. A bunch of top youtubers are going to be vlogging using VR from vidcon.

The new generation is seeing more cool stuff being done from Samsung right now. Apple isn't even doing anything in VR at the moment. It really seems to me that Samsung is taking over the hearts and minds right now.

So, my first hypothesis would be to have two divs, one showing the latest result of marked, the other (not visible) showing the current result of marked; in the Typeset callback you could then swap the two divs.
Well they do it because people buy more that way. If people didn't buy the crap, these vendors wouldn't sell it.
Meant in the general sense. More complexity, more opportunity for attacks and/or implementation bugs. For starters you have a phone number associated with an account already. I would wager losing your phone is nearly impossible to prevent, while picking your passphrase is up to you. Losing your phone could alone compromise your security, but the very least SMS leaks the info where you bank.

I'm aware I am a minority with this opinion, but I would be really grateful if I could at least opt out from phone based 2FA.
Not a c# dev, but definitely typescript makes me feel more motivated to write code these days.

I can't resist the feeling these were specifically developed by the User Data Mining department.
I don't want to be indispensable. The last guy at my company that was indispensable, quit because he was indispensable. His manager relied on him too much. His manager was contemplating going to his house at 2AM when neither him nor is wife (he got her phone number from the emergency contact) could not be reached. The team survived just fine without, BTW.

Although I'm a team lead, I make sure 1 other person knows what someone else has done, even my own work. I can go on vacation without worry. I can have someone else take up other people's task if someone is too much allocated.
That leads to some random behaviour.

Elaborate? What is the impact of this random behavior for the-in the case of the analogy before us-an administrator? Doesn't Chrome's autocomplete, in the case of credentials know which credential belongs to what password?

If an admin goes to log into gmail on an end user machine, and enters his email address, why would the user's password pop into the password field?

I'm afraid I don't understand your counterpoint.
You don't definitely don't, you only get angular information for exactly the reason you say. The distance information comes (I believe) by first determining the masses, and then computing how fast the energy falls off with distance.
No, but it's an effective way to say "fk you" to stubborn/lazy/backwards maintainers and/or distros who wont update.

Is this different than blaming the rape victim for dressing provocatively?

Yeah, I think it is. When the victim willingly climbs into bed with someone who has previously made him/her uncomfortable, it's time for even the most stalwart SJW to acknowledge that the situation is not entirely one-sided.

I think it's an account of a community trying to define its norms.

We've spent the last 10,000 years or so doing just that. So far, the answer seems to be, "Don't sleep with people of the compatible sex that you don't want to, um, sleep with."

Of course we haven't arrived at the best possible set of norms yet, but I'm not convinced that unchallenged cries of victim-blaming in cases like this are going to lead us there.

At a glance, it looks like those norms are about as far in one direction from mainstream America as conservative Islamic societies are in the other direction. As such, discussion can help those in the middle (who frequently consider themselves enlightened) to understand the perspective of those in the more conservative society.

Sorry, I'm not sure what this means.
The current code with the function pointers and pods works ok for me, its about in the million per second range and i didn't profile any alternative to it.
How would you implement such an alternative with jit code generation into this pod/function c code setup without major rewrites? Seems to me like a completely different system which is bound to llvm (i use gcc)?

edit: since you were mentioning jit optimisation and code generation - this is a field i do not have any experience, but my impression so far is that this runtime re-arrangement of code can yield quite a big performance increase for higher level languages (jvm does this afaik). Is the link you provided the same idea for statically compiled c/c++ code?
Chrome, IE11[1], and Firefox[2] all do this, and have for a while.

I'd be curious to see the full source code. A memory leak from an owned pointer should be impossible unless you're using `unsafe` somewhere in your code or in a library you're pulling in.
Minor nit, but HPFS was OS/2's filesystem. Apple's is HFS (and HFS+).

The localization isn't performed through parallax, it's done through triangulation and time-of-arrival. For a pair of observatories, a difference in the arrival time of a signal (moving at the speed of light) defines a circle on the sky of possible source locations. With three observatories, there are three circles on the sky, which intersect at a single point.

The Virgo detector, outside of Pisa, is in the final stages of installing its advanced instrumentation. With LIGO+Virgo a source like the first detection, from September (a very loud event), could be localized to a patch of sky about 10 square degrees in area.
It's a bit like learning to work on a bicycle by reading physics textbooks.
While I totally think typescript is great and getting better all time the same thing just came to my mind. I started a typescript project end of last year and since then I have already moved from tsd to typings to a new incompatible typings version. Seems to be not the end of the journey.

I believe you use timing differences, not parallax (it takes ~40 ms for gravitational waves to travel through Earth).

I second Elixir. Concurrency and HA are the future!
Ok. So what makes those things "uncivil"? Is it that you feel that they're untrue characterizations?

Or is it that I failed to find the correct euphemism?

Or is it the mention of the ideas themselves, which would never be permissible even if true and no matter which euphemism were used?

I've re-read the other guy's comments. I'm trying to understand your point of view.
Where, if you don't mind sharing?
F# is pretty sweet. It's concise, no ceremony, type safety, can be used with all .net libs, functional. I'm a beginner but love diving into it.
Same here, it makes me go like woo!
The problem is simple: what is a login form? Browsers detect the login form from the presence of password fields and sometimes an email field. If you ever have an admin form were you can change the password of a user, you will get the autocomplete everytime, no matter what you do. You have to resort to JS. Also there are situations where you just don't want to give your users the choice (bank apps etc).
D (dlang). It's the C++ I always wanted. It's safe, modern, fast, and familiar. It's got classes with reference semantics, structs with value semantics, safe concurrency by default, support for functional programming, concise syntax yet with the C/Java/C++/C# flavour, speed, a compile-time complete D interpreter (thus allowing metaprogramming in the same language as the runtime language, almost lisp-like), plus all the common syntactic niceties we've come to expect from modern languages.

My only complaint so far is that the reference implementation has a stupid license, but most other D users just ignore the terms of the license. I had also found a performance bug in an stdlib function, but it's since been addressed in dev.
I disagree. That's the game you play "buy cheap from China."

Spend a bit more (say, $30) and the quality will greatly surpass expectations.

It's also the same rationale behind the rude "construction worker" catcall. Although you can tell quite a bit about a person by their gait and attire, the false positive rate is high, so it's doubtful a man will learn enough just by watching to make it worth his while to approach a stranger in the street for a sexual encounter. But whistling and making lewd remarks instantly winnows out any "difficult" (which is to say assertive, intelligent or self-respecting) women, leaving the most willing and easily pliable as the ones most likely to respond positively.

Both of those apply just to ignoring autocomplete settings for password management, not other input fields.

That's different from Chrome not giving effect to autocomplete=off for any fields.
Guccifer 2.0: DNC's servers hacked by a lone hacker
Do you know of a good way to find a professional who works with programmers and sysadmins in particular?
I've played with these - they are fascinating, and seriously weird.
The admin visits a page to edit a normal user on their website, which contains fields like email/password etc for that other user.

Chrome autocompletes the admin user's password and email in the form fields without user interaction. There was no mechanism to tell chrome not to do this if autocomplete=off is ignored, but you can set autocomplete to an arbitrary value (say =nope not =off as in spec) and it will not autocomplete.

I've seen this on real sites and had users complain about it, it is a very real issue, and unfortunately not all admin users are savvy enough to turn off autocomplete in just one instance, when they use it all the time elsewhere (even on the same website). It's nice if the website can somehow fix this by saying they really don't want autocomplete on a form to edit other users.

Personally I think the browser should give the user control, but autocomplete should not be the default if the website requests it to be off, it should be available on right click or with some easily accessible option. This should satisfy everyone and avoid situations like the one described above where the user sees arbitrary and incorrect values being filled in a form which is not related to their user and is not a login form.
Bracket notation isn't anything new to ES2015, using it in that context is though.
Any work we do to improve the reliability of consumer software is limited by the reliability of the underlying machine.

If everyone used ECC RAM, it would be marginally more expensive than regular RAM, but it would let us (theoretically) cut the number of real-life crashes by a huge degree. I think if every computer system were like this, it would have non-obvious positive effects on society (like the ability to safely give computers increased responsibility).
Disabling interrupts prevents you from using interrupt-unsafe logic inside the critical section, which is impractical in most cases. It would mean, for example, that you wouldn't be able to touch memory that had been swapped. It also doesn't actually improve performance. When people do this, it's because they want to edit process-local data structures. Unless you're in kernel, you probably don't want this.

As a practical matter, HTM is dead. It's 2x slower than locking in the common cases: uncontended critical section or contended critical section that has a race. It also prevents you from doing effects outside of memory (it's just guaranteed to revert to locks in that case, so you pay all of the overhead of HTM and all of the overhead of locks).

Interesting about the difficulty of locking two cache lines. To me the important thing to keep in mind when talking about concurrency alternatives to the status quo is: nobody has proved that contended-but-not-racy critical sections are common. According to my data, they are unicorns. This means that from a performance standpoint, any proposed concurrency protocol that is different from locking must justify how it plans to beat locks on the two things that they are super good at, which are uncontended critical sections (with locks you pay one or two CASes on cache lines you probably already own) and contended-and-racy critical sections (with locks you pay for some CASes but the lock will make threads contend as quietly as possible to allow the lock owner to proceed quickly). If a proposal is worse than locks on the two most common kinds of critical sections, then that's silly. AFAICT, all of these trasactions-or-better-CAS approaches would only help in the case of contended-but-not-racy critical sections, which are too rare to matter. The two cache line thing definitely sounds like it will be more expensive than locking in the uncontended case, and I don't see how it will help in the contended-but-racy case.

EDIT: I said "contended-but-racy" when I meant "contended-but-not-racy" in one place, above. Fixed.
The problem with NFL Sunday Ticket and NBA League Pass is that they both feel extremely nerfed as to not get in the way of TV. I have trouble believing the NFL and even the NBA actually have problems putting out a decent streaming service, they just don't want to because they're getting all their money from TV. I would have absolutely no problem paying like $5 a game for the amount of entertainment I get from it, but they don't even let me do that! I have to pay for an entire season in which some games won't even be shown on the service. They basically force you to watch illegal streams. It's ridiculous.

You don't use parallax, rather you calculate the direction of the source by using the arrival times of the signals. The nearer detector will receive the signal slightly earlier by an amount that will typically be on the order of a few hundredths of a second. This is essentially the same method that geologists use to determine the epicenter of an earthquake.
[RFC] a portable GNU watch replacement in Go
Building the former in an open (and maybe distributed, if I'm really hitting the pipe dream hard) fashion has always seemed like an interesting project, this discussion may give me the impetus to play around with it a bit more.

I never really liked the waze method of manual input, but that's a really braindead way of getting started; it seems however that you could do tricks like anomaly detection of speed of a car through an area when compared to other cars on that street/streets around it with some very hand wavy heuristics. Contributors would install the app and it'd start building a database of avg speed and variance for roads/groups of roads. Anonimization comes to mind as a concern, but since you just need to know "someone drove on that street" at some point recently I imagine there are some things you can do to reduce potential impact/aggregate, since traffic jam data gets less useful in places with less people, although that does require a large starting population, and at this point I'm rambling.

The other advantage of a system like this is that it could readily be used for road discovery, frankly as someone who knows nothing about the open mapping community I always figured something like that _had_ to exist to make it more feasible.
