Sad. This reminds me of high school where I was constantly being bullied by the big guys.

- Oh, I like that what you have. You know what? I WANT it. And I'm going to take it just because I'm bigger than you.

They can go to hell. I'm not renewing my certs with those twats. Bullying is not fine just because is a company instead of a person doing it.

Not to discredit their results, but what it shows is that users who used Edge consumed less power than Chrome or Firefox.

Whether that means Edge is more power efficient, or devices where Edge is used more often are more power efficient, or users who select for Edge tend to visit sites that allow Edge to be more power efficient isn't clear.

To be fair to both sides, this is a really hard thing to measure.

The company should be open and honest with it's employees. It shouldn't be telling them everything is fine, hiring new people, relocating them from other countries and then a day later firing most of the staff.

A decision like this isn't sudden. It's the difference between trying to work things out with your wife, talking through your differences and eventually deciding it won't work, vs leaving her without warning and taking the dog and bank account.
This sort of API is hard to implement in Python though, because there's no formal notion of interfaces, so you cannot extend all iterables generically. So you need to use free functions (which don't read well when chained) or a wrapper object (ick).
This seems similar to Cocinelle [1], which can perform complex refactorings and bug finding for C code (e.g. the Linux kernel).

It absolutely has to do with the discussion. The reason for the tightness of the IPO and first day closing price of Facebook was because of those technical issues. Trading was disastrous and had Facebook not been a household name, it's easily believable that it would have traded even lower.
Not necessarily true if both ad blockers are using the same filter lists. I find Adblock Plus and uBlock Origin (I prefer the latter) to be relatively on par in terms of things they block and things they tend to miss, even cross browser. I think the initial pageload would be the biggest differnce, as it relies on the performance of the adblocker in applying its filters to the DOM once it's loaded. The underlying extension framework probably affects this a lot too.

I'd think the user agent string is more likely to cause a huge discrepancy, as many frameworks will be utilizing polyfills and employing different technologies depending on what each browser supports. (Or, in the case of the user agent string, what the framework thinks the browser supports, regardless of how correct its assumptions are.)
Don't forget natural growth, i.e. birth.

According to census estimates, California had a natural population increase of 1,332,394 (births - deaths) from April 2010 -- August 2015. In that same period it had a net immigration of 568,884 people, consisting of +834,999 international and -266,115 domestic.

On the other hand, when you look at the San Francisco bay area metropolitan region, you'll see that there's no domestic exodus and a net immigration of 274,598 people over the last five years.

[http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/PEP/2015/PEPT...]

So, yeah, with a little over ~90,000 new people per year in the region, the picture looks very different than the one the article was trying to paint.
No I don't think so. It sounds like he was fired for at the very least strange behavior, and all of his potential employers picked up on it. If he were technically good, it wouldn't matter what Chrysler said. But it seems like he's not technically good.

The article addresses this - Doom is 'first person Robotron' and it was designed without 'mouselook' absolute positioning control in mind. I don't think it's an all-encompassing explanation (tastes and fashions drive change too) but the fact that designers have to accommodate two fundamentally different control schemes in the same game has had a very big impact on the way FPS games are designed.

> Can someone shed some light on the views of these people?

I'm one of them. I see firearms ownership and self-defense as base civil rights, on par or even more important than speech or religion.

It doesn't even matter if strict gun control would decrease shootings, although I don't believe it would in the US. Abandoning the Fourth Amendment and allowing warrantless searches of homes and persons would undoubtably reduce crime as well, but proposing to do that would be met with near-unanimous protest. In both cases, it's not a matter of justification, but of basic human rights.
Is it compatible with ccache?
So instead of improving the implementation of ArraySegment they just add yet another way of doing it?

Perhaps I'm alone in deriving small comfort in the knowledge that even if I were framed or otherwise unjustly convicted for the most atrocious of crimes, this would not be my fate (though the federal government showed in MA, for instance, with the Boston Marathon bomber, that they will override humane state law; you're never truly safe in the US). The knowledge that a gross miscarriage of justice could land me in "hell on earth" was troubling in CA (death row in TX and CA are quite different beasts on the other hand).
But the 1/8" TRS/TRRS jack (headphone / headphone-with-mic jack) is analog when it's used for analog output (headphones/line-out) or input (microphone/line-in). The DAC is on the device side, not the accessory side.

Perhaps you're referring to the SP/DIF "hiding" inside the 1/8 jack of many Macs?
I think the biggest problem with Sentry is that it will sample exceptions (I wonder if there's a way to switch this off with $$$?), meaning that I can't rely on it to view and examine every instance. Sometimes you need to fix things manually which requires every exception to be saved.

Since I want to get every single exception logged, Sentry feels quite useless and I wouldn't select it for my next project.

Other than that it has been a fantastic tool.
While I applaud their work and appreciate that there is an extension framework at all, I seriously doubt this will happen unless they plan to also redesign their home pages to remove the ads.

I just loaded up MSN.com and scrolled down the page. I count 3 ads total: one gigantic banner at the very top of the page before all of the content, and two smaller panners that pop into place as you scroll. These are served by AdChoices. When I turn my ad blocker back on, these all disappear, and the site loads much faster.

I think if Microsoft were to release a default ad-blocker, they would need to re-code their own website to use native advertising rather than a third-party network. I believe this to be an excellent practice, but I just don't see Microsoft going this route. I'd love to be pleasantly surprised though.
Which is impressive I guess given that Firefox users often use extensions of varying quality?

Pretty basic Window creation and message loop code, but its nice to see a starting example in Go. For comparison here is a C version:

https://github.com/LeZuse/minimal-win32-app/blob/master/main...

The C code does basically the same thing but ends up being smaller because the Go code doesn't have an equivalent of windows.h with function and data type definitions. The Go code might be a little nicer if it used a Win32 API wrapper, but there doesn't seem to be a well supported and documented one out there. This was all I could find https://github.com/AllenDang/w32.

Subsistence farming.
My limited understanding with basketball stats is that they are only somewhat useful, as it favours player who have direct impact to the game, those who can score/assist/rebound/etc, and encourages players to game the system.

However it does not reflect how a player defends, how he fits into a particular style/role, how much support his teammates get from him other than assists, etc.

It'll be interesting to see if they use deeper analysis to figure out which player is actually better.

> If it's criminal to own a gun, only criminals will own guns.

Note the implication here - if it becomes criminal to own a gun, many people will become criminals rather than surrender them.

> The sheer number of guns in the US is so enormous that it would be near impossible to remove them all.

Reports say around 375,000,000, but most people in the firearms community seem to believe those estimates are quite low.

> Unfortunately even if they enacted the same gun control laws used in the UK or Australia, it wouldn't do much in the short term.

Sure it would - it would make criminals of millions of Americans, including me. I would strongly assume that the enactment of UK- or Australia-style gun bans in the US would immediately precipitate mass civil disobedience at a bare minimum, and would be very likely to start a large-scale insurrection.

> lobby for cohesive regional zoning and transportation planning that meets growth

I agree that this is the right answer in theory. The challenge is that, in practice, by the time the critically important rail line or subway or high speed bus lane (or whatever) is built and put into operation, you're halfway to retirement and your kids are out of high school.

So, practically speaking, a lot of people conclude that the only effective voting is the kind done with the feet.

Too often state and local governments are not capable of doing their jobs quickly enough to solve the problems.
I disagree with this argument. What ring the code runs in doesn't really matter; it's true that a buffer overflow in a (properly built) unikernel will get the attacker into ring 0, but the attacker will find that there is almost nothing there. No globally shared filesystem, no hundreds of system calls, no processes, nothing. A ring 3 Unix process is actually a much richer environment to exploit.

I think unikernels are a bad idea compared to containers, but not for this reason.
Well if it gets out of control, it will probably fall over and not be able get up. If it malfunctions, probably the worst thing that could happen would be the battery pack catching fire, because of consumer safety laws there will be safeties in place to prevent this.

Hacking is an interesting one, only because current laws assume the perpetrator must be in proximity to the crime.

However, this robot is almost certainly not autonomous with the operator hidden behind the camera. Because it's not autonomous, it's going to be difficult to teleoperate over the internet. Telerobots are slow and not very capable[0]. With lag, it's going to be difficult to stab someone with a knife much less pick up a knife.

However, even slow telerobots present interesting legal issues. One might hack a telerobot in the home of some people who are on vacation and use it to unlock the doors so some guy can go in and steal stuff.

When you create an application or a simple js file which requires node modules to be required, for the first time you need to install all the modules explicitly and individually and also save it to the package.json. This module will save your time and install all the modules required for your js file to run and save it to package.json If there doesnt exist a package.json, it creates it and saves the dependencies there. It works for a folder too which contains n number of js files.

After about 10 years here in CA, I started liking the rain too. Now I love it when it rains. I just hated the way unpredictable weather (==rain) meant you could never plan an outdoor activity in the PNW without the decent possibility of it getting rained on. It limited my enjoyment of the "great outdoors". But in a larger sense, my (mood-related) gripe was with the grey, not the rain itself.
I know I'm stuck in a box here. The other way around would be:

- what if we cant send processes instead of messages?
- what are we missing?
- which things cannot be done?

Pretty much what we have nowadays.

I find it hard to understand how sending processes (assuming they're not only objects but the context in which they live) help scaling the system.

Which example are you thinking of, that i cannot because I'm lacking this idea of processes rather than messages?
> And then you fully "get" what channels, distributed systems, umbrella-refactorings and all the latest talks are about.

I used Erlang on my last project, and it was an awesome fit for what we were doing. It's a really great system.

That said... "don't drink too much kool-aid" - Rails is fine for lots of things, and continues to be fine. Not everyone needs a fault-tolerant, distributed system, or web sockets or some of the other stuff where Erlang is a win.
That seems like an argument against lambda functions in general - why use lambdas when you can define a static function for every case? Well, the answer in my opinion is because it makes code more readable if you can define a simple lambda function instead of having to name every single function in the code base.
...oh but they do. If you're in education and are an InCommon member, you get unlimited EV certs. It's pretty nice as you can add read certs to literally every server in your system and not have to abuse a *. cert. Hell you can even add real certs to every AD machine; no more creating your own CA and installing it via a group policy.

That was back in 2012 when I worked for a University. Good luck getting those certs though. Their web service was so broken and if you ever asked for a 2nd cert it'd revoke the first one (which is great if you use them for e-mail encryption because now you can't read any of your old e-mails :-P .. that was more of an Outlook/GAL issue though).

I really hate that InCommon was using Comodo considering all the shit they've done (like issue Google and Facebook certs to the Iranian government).
There's also kernel bypass setups which seem to be common when crazy performance is required.
His point is that only one of the browsers was using an ad blocker so they were rendering different content because one rendered ads and the other did not.
I'm guessing it was because of pressure from Mingw. A few years ago, Cygwin was the only option, and Mingw was a real pain to use. Now with Mingw becoming more and more mature, I'll bet people were using that instead of Cygwin.

It doesn't matter if his case is real or not. What matters is, for 17 years, a mechanical engineer basically just lived like a bum rather than trying to get any kind of real job, even something as simple as a fry cook, waiter, janitor, anything. He had already been a janitor and maintenance mechanic once, so that should have been easy to get again.

What _is_ clear is he can barely write, he records videos of himself outdoors that are barely audible, and even if he won this strange case, he's clearly not employable now. More than likely his mental illness started after he became an engineer and quickly progressed.
There's a second lesson for start-ups - if you can't buy or develop goodwill with your customers, just steal it from someone else.

We're working on improving this. It's a tradeoff we made early on as our primary customers have always been very large tech companies (meaning lots of errors). In those cases individual events have little to no meaning, and what you really care about is the aggregate view.

That's very different than if e.g. you're a payments provider, and you literally need to know every transaction that erred, but that's also quite a different use case. In my opinion, you'd want to guarantee those errors are logged elsewhere (traditional audit logs), and utilize Sentry primarily for the workflow and alerting features.

I was curious so I benchmarked "decrypting" kernelcache.release.n66 on an iPhone 6S and it took about 60 milliseconds to decrypt. It wasn't encrypted in the first place so the decryption results in garbage, but it should be a valid benchmark. The quick boot time with iOS 10 sure is nice, but it isn't because the kernel isn't encrypted.
