I've worked with quite a few old school manufacturers that have expanded their business by selling direct on Amazon.

Amazon's easy to use marketplace is the only online medium that has ever worked out so well for companies that make products but are not savvy in e-commerce. The profits from Amazon are giving these businesses the opportunity to dip their toes in e-commerce.

The real advantage to the world from all of this is just starting to appear: In every example that I know, the manufacturers are now getting the confidence to start seriously selling directly outside of Amazon, because of their experience on Amazon.
The Typeform LITE mobile application is built by using CouchDB and PouchDB which means when the application is online, it replicates the users db locally so the performance is great but the even bigger benefit is that when the application is offline, the user can still do the majority of the operations which would be synced once the application goes online again.

So, probably no-one wants to replicate the whole database locally but there is a strong benefit to replicate parts of it for performance and offline-capabilities.

Disclaimer: I was one of two developers on the mobile app mentioned above.

MS works strictly on a patch Tuesday schedule unless its a critical security issue. I imagine the change will be out on the 12th, although a week's notice isn't a long time. Egyptians may have to wait until next month.

Android seems to be a shitshow of lack of updates, OEM/Carrier interference, etc so its always a crapshoot on when Android phones get updated.

No idea about Apple. They seem to update almost randomly from my experience in the past (havent owned an OSX machine in a while, so that might have changed).
This is a pretty one-sided story. I dislike the TSA as much as anyone, but I doubt the employees are intentionally harming some disabled young lady. From what I can tell, she tried running away, they tried to stop her, and she fell to the ground hitting her head. It's unfortunate, and ultimately the TSA needs to be more accommodating of allowing guardians accompanying their dependents to help prevent these issues. But this is a non-story really.
The point of CSS animations isn't HW accel - you get that just from layerization. What it does get you is animations executing off the JS thread, so if you have piles of third party JS it won't cause frame drops.
I agree but moist systems are not setup to facilitate this, and nor do people want to do the hard yards.
Bringing his eastern asian background isn't appealing to racists. There are differences between cultures and educations and they are not due to differences between races (ie an adopted kid from Korea raised in Europe will have the same culture as his family and not the culture of his origins).

Taking differences of culture into account when talking about practices in different countries make perfect sense. If there were no differences, then the "strange behaviors" we see reported would not baffle us and there wouldn't be any need for such an article. So, I think that the fact that eva1984 mentioned his background let's us know that by having a shared culture he can give us insights into what's happening that we don't necessarily have. Even if we don't agree with the practice, it's interesting to see how it's perceived there.

-

That said, I do agree with you in that overly paternalistic employers and a definition of life centered around the company (leading to overtime, obligatory parties with the company, etc..) as done in Japan and Korea is often not very good for employees mental health and is probably one of the reason for the increased rate of suicide.

Some people are realizing this (in Japan at least). A bit more than 10 years ago I taught English part time on weekends to retired people in Japan and one of the thing that stuck with me is how many of the men regretted that they hadn't taken more time to enjoy life and do things they want before retiring. I had that discussion with them as I was starting a seishain position in a Japanese company and was surprised by the amount of Sabisu Zangyo (unpaid over time) and the time spent on company dinners etc... They were warning me to be careful and not let myself eaten by the company life.
Well there hasn't been a major attack on the US transportation systems since it was created. It's hard to say if this is a direct result of the TSA, but I'd also hesitate to say that they failed their mission.
Extremely biased, awfully researched post. If you look at his recent stories he is on an apple hype train. Nothing against apple, but this guy has blurred and biased judgment.
Shave Some Time from Your Travis Builds
> Browsers/webapps have only become this crazily successful because they allow seamless delivery of applications to run locally.

I'm going to heavily disagree with you. There were plenty of sites that were successful without using heavy JS. Most webapps I see can run easily without JS, they just choose not to. Yes, there are exceptions, but they are exceptions.

"The core features people want" aren't JS-pop-ups, and slow browsers. They want sites that work quickly, are easy to understand, and work on mobile just as well as on a desktop. I would argue that JS makes all of those aspects worse.
Building a React Native Offline-First Application Using PouchDB and CouchDB
I personally think the way the United States handles time zones is a large part of the problem. I live in Chicago, some of my cousins live in South Bend, IN, and some live in Niles, MI. For a long time, Indiana didn't observe DST. Michigan was on EST and observed DST. Chicago, of course, is on CST, and observes DST.

It was interesting to take trips and cross between the different systems for time-keeping. For one thing, the sun rises incredibly late on the far Western edge of a time zone, and sets quite late as well. According to this map, while Chicago and NYC experience about 10 days with sunsets after 8:30 pm, the Western edge of Michigan experiences about 130 days where the sun sets after 8:30 PM. On the flip side, Chicago and NYC experience over 100 days with sunrises before 6:00 AM, while Western Michigan does not have a single day with a sunrise before 6:00 AM.

Our current system is a massive improvement over the old system with hundreds or thousands of individual time zones, at least in the sense that scheduling activities between geographically distant areas is much easier. However I think the system is much worse for the life of any given individual. I think it would make far more sense to have a single time zone for the United States, and have individuals choose their schedule based on the time of the year and their local sun.

I have a lot of autonomy in my job, and I have basically been doing this for several years now. I wake up later in the winter, sometimes as late as 7:30 AM. In the summer I wake up with the sunrise and bike to work, leaving my house before 6 AM. Waking up with the sun makes getting up much easier, it reduces my energy usage, and following the schedule of the sun helped my insomnia as well.

I think the idea would be really unpopular in practice, since people are used to the "9-5" mentality, where schedules are set by the clock. A lot of people live far enough South and East in their time zones not to be terribly affected by the shifting time of the sunrise. Furthermore, I can see national companies instituting policies which ignore the benefits of a shifting schedule, forcing their workers on the West Coast and the East Coast to both arrive at the same hour.
I'd agree with the sentiment, but for a different reason. I think the method can be useful and maintainable, but, the problem with this implementation seems to be a mix of design (font colors, sizes) and functionality, and a lack of documentation.

Splitting the CSS into two distinct pieces (or better: files, but I realize that's a limitation of jsfiddle) would go a very long way to making this technique maintainable. Having documentation that then shows the required HTML structure and the necessary classes to add would help immensely.

Essentially, build it like a UI library that just happens to be written in CSS.

Right now, it's just a demo of a technique that's not built in a reusable way, and you need to be pretty decent with CSS in order to understand and use it (since you pretty much have to re-implement it every time you want to use it). To be fair, the HN submission and site don't make any claims it's anything but this.
As he refers to in the video he's been taking part in various discussions before the election, and one of his lectures went viral beforehand as well:

Just because a system is built to withstand certain rule-breakage doesn't mean that those things are part of the system. Cars come with airbags and seatbelts, but driving into a concrete bollard is not recommended by the manufacturer or the DMV.

Convenient that getting entertainment free becomes a responsible, ethical choice. How nice. Consider the media company counts a pirate (who they can't see) the same as somebody that doesn't watch the show. So just not watching has the same effect? And may be a wee bit more ethical.
I'll do. Thank you...

End users love it when they can open found PDF document on a page where search terms occur and when they can easily jump between matches. Very useful feature when documents have thousands of pages although some clients use it even with single page document archives.

Earlier versions of Acrobat Reader had support for term highlighting using “PDF Highlight File Format” which is XML-like file specifying word offsets in page. There are search solutions that relied on this feature but Adobe deprecated it with Acrobat Reader X.

Anyway, my solution re-enables search term highlighting in PDF and does not require any special viewer – web based viewer [1] works on both desktop and mobile web browsers. It's easy to integrate with existing search solutions and can use either Adobe's PDF highlights file as input or highlight for a search query.

Well, "your browser is unsupported" is something I still live with. And on the other hand, if I don't have the setup the developer expects, things just quietly break with nothing to tell me what's up. How is that better?

Flash never really was a problem for me; very very few used it for anything critical. It was mostly for entertainment and media that has no value for me. I lived just fine with no flash installed, and got performance & security benefits for simply not having it. Living with JS (and other obnoxious features) disabled, on the other hand, has gotten really fucking difficult now.

And frankly the "best viewed in whatever" websites weren't a problem either. On one hand it was mostly fanboyism. On the other, web designers using some niche feature that had no real impact on functionality or my ability to read & navigate the content. Again, I don't recall ever having to switch to another browser because of that. So it really was better for me back in the day.

It's funny to hear this argument. I constantly hear "well, we don't worry about non-js browsers, because they are such a small minority". Yet how many people are keyboard-only users?

I'm not saying your wrong, or that you are arguing against non-js browsers, just a funny twist.
Kubernetes does this for you IPs. For example, if your VPC subnet is 172.16.0.0/16, then you can tell K8s to use 10.0.0.0/16.

AWS won't know this IP range and won't route it. So K8s automatically populates your routing table with the routes every time a node changes or is added/removed.

K8s will give a /24 CIDR to each minion host, so the first will get 10.0.1.0/24, the next 10.0.2.0/24, and so on. Each pod will get 10.0.1.1, 10.0.1.2, etc.

Obviously having an additional IP/interface per box adds complexity, but I don't know if K8s supports any other automatic mode of operation on AWS.

(Note: Kubernetes expects AWS objects that it can control — security groups, instances, etc. — to be tagged with KubernetesCluster=<your cluster name>. This also applies to the routing table.)

Just as a pointer, using this "portmanteau as diss" discourse style is generally a bad idea if you want to be persuasive to people who aren't sure yet whether or not they agree with you, rather than just "preaching to the choir" who already share your views. The rest of your comment made some decent points, but name-calling like this just comes off as childish.

Or we could stop pretending that playing with timezones somehow magically gives us more hours in the day.

It's like the shaggy dog story about a business consultant who was hired to improve efficiency at a port. "The first thing you need to do," he concluded, "is reschedule your tides."

If it makes sense to adjust our schedule according to the season, let's just do that, instead of shifting our clocks and pretending nothing's happened.
> After watching the "we're the only ones who know best, so shut up"-antics of the Gnome developers, I can understand that canonical got cold feet.

If only we could exile the GNOME devs, Canonical & the systemd devs to a desert island, the state of the Linux desktop would be … well, probably not as good but at least it'd be a much more collegial community.

To get back to the original topic: the attitudes of the GNOME devs, Canonical & the systemd devs reminds me of that of the OpenBSD devs, with the exception that the OpenBSD guys are generally right, just socially inept in how they convey their message.

We have "best viewed in Chrome" today, which is no different.
Also, Steam was one of the first solutions to properly take care about the chore of updating your game, like modern package managers / app stores do.

Before that (and because most games shipped / still ship without an auto-updater, for good reason), you had to do it yourself by checking for each game's website (or specialized websites offering some centralization), download and launch a patch executable.

And before fast internet access allowed convenient download of those multi-MB patches (looong on 56k), gaming paper magazines distributed them on CDs (then DVDs) :) . Not so good old times, frankly.

That's not true. The actual rules of capitalism are the laws of nature. Everything else operates within the system and is subject to the various forces. The government is not some impartial 'referee', it is just another player, albeit one with a monopoly on violence which it licenses to other players from time to time.

Assuming you consider obeying copyrights to be ethical, then whenever copyright expires.

A copyright is the legal ability to say when and how the media will be shared.

If you want the media, and the copyright owner fails to cater to you and says "f--- off", that's them exercising that right.

It's not like "media" is some universal human right, at least according to the legal system.

If obeying copyrights is not required to be ethical, then right now.

That measure isn't very effective against people who are willing to include themselves in any explosion.

That's not to say it isn't effective against more traditional threats such as Pan-Am 103 after which those measures were introduced.
We have those, but getting the kids to the bedroom is still a big challenge, especially when they are outside playing and the sun is out. "it's getting dark" doesn't work. DST is a shortsighted solution to what is not even a problem in my opinion. Why don't the people who hate sunrise at 4am get blackout curtains and leave the rest of us alone. Dealing with sun in the morning is far easier than sun at bedtime.

It is good to see self-hosting options for more app platforms. My question is why one would prefer this over similar platforms which are also open source?

If you're willing to allow self-hosting for free on hosting other than your own paid service, is there anything to gain by remaining closed? Presumably if open, people could contribute fixes and improvements as well as help you identify security vulnerabilities.

About a year ago, I purchased one of the bestsellers on German Amazon (which basically look the same as the bestsellers on the US store). It is flimsy, the springs on one connector are likely to break after using them a few times. The worst thing: one of the connectors didn't retract fully when not in use and was connected to live AC. Yikes! It had tons of great reviews both on the German and on the US store, including ones were you could see the bad construction in the customer photos. After looking closely at them, one of the three-star reviews casually mentioned sparks when used in one configuration...

I called customer support and wrote to the responsible regulatory body in Germany. This specific model is not available anymore. A dozen identical looking still are.

In the end I used one that is three times as expensive made by a reputable company.

That is the problem.
