Rocard was into politics to try and make the world a better place. He was one of our strongest allies in the software patents fight.

I remember standing at the entrance of the Strasbourg parliament with a megaphone kindly saying to all members of parliament arriving: "Please vote Buzek-Rocard-Duff. Thank you very much!"

Makes me think of http://free765.wikidot.com/ . I never spoke to him in person like I did with other MEPs, but friends who were in the parliament while we were canoeing tell me he really really appreciated that.

Rest in peace, Michel.
Has anyone tried this yet? It seems more than 50% cheaper than Backblaze B2 with a very similar setup.
Surely they're aware of how much they're pissing people off with stuff like this, it blows my mind that they're still doing it
Agree. Epithets like "darknet", "dark mail", "underground net" etc. along with names like this certainly doesn't help to improve encryption and privacy promoting software image to general public and media. I understand that it's a joke, but only a handful people will get that, for most others it will be another app that enables pedophiles and terrorist to get away with their crimes.
It includes the time you actually do the on-call work, but not the time when you're just available / waiting.
Fair points. The title was kinda a joke originally and then it just stuck.

Do you have some more information on this? To my uneducated eye, it looks like GS14 (with benefits) is substantially less than a good software dev would make in the private sector. I would be very interested in a government job if I am incorrect.

It changes your relationship. If they get it for free there's a hard limit on what they can expect from you. The second they pay $0.01 for it they'll expect customer service.

Maybe you can find out who your product's best users are and ask them what new features they'd pay for. That way if nobody likes it enough to spend money you can just leave it the way it is, and if you start charging it's for new features that your best customers love.

> - What separates you from existing API Marketplaces (e.g. Algorithmia)

Macgyver differs from Mashape in that we host the program and actually run the program against the data (processing). This allows us to have more control over verifying the up-time as well as any changes to the program which might affect an end user's application (we do our own versioning so any new changes will be pushed as an incremental version) as to mitigate negative impact to clients already using the API.

We differ from Algorithmia in that we don't require you to learn our development tools or programming languages. We offer custom runtimes. We function by specifying -

1. How we will supply data to your program
2. The runtime you want us to use
3. How we expect the program to respond

But ultimately we don't care how your program does that or in what language it is programmed.

> - Do you have programmer APIs other than JS?

Not sure what you mean by this, the API takes and returns JSON but it can be used with any programming language.

> - From your blog I am assuming you use docker for running the algorithms? Will the docker images be made open too?

The programs are executed inside docker containers. We are still architecting the optimal workflow for our publishers and if that means making the macgyver docker image public we will do that but that is still TBD. We may just offer a sandbox environment for publishers to test in.

> - How much effort do you think it would take me to transform an existing algorithm that I have to be available in your system?

It's likely going to be easier than any other tool. We are going to work on providing more documentation and releasing the API docs very shortly - but the gist of the process is that you can move your algorithm program (or directory) into a folder in a standard linux box and from there you will just need to modify how you get your input data and how you format your output data, and specifying a runtime for macgyver to call on your main program file.

Thank you for the interest!

Consuming content from the same site, on different devices is flawed. When I know a site, and go to mobile site the experience differs so much sometimes, that it might as well be a different site. In my perception, the reason is that someone else decides what is important to me, on the smaller format.
TLDR: Total time spent on desktop web was up 16% from June 2013 to June 2015; on mobile web it was up 53%. So, no.
these are the changes as per the about page:

Essential YouTube is an experiment to improve user experience by stripping the redundant away and focusing on the essentials.

Features:
Disruption-free Search
The video keeps playing even while you are searching.
Instant Search
See the results as you are typing.
Queuing
Queue videos as you like to watch them consecutively.
Looping
Loop a video forever.
Hassle-free
Video annotations are disabled by default. Also, no Autoplay, but the videos you want to play.
Client-side
There are no servers in-between you and YouTube; everything is done on your computer and it's open source. As private as it could be.

Obvious it might sound, but please keep in mind that Essential YouTube is an experiment, and as pleasing as it might be to use, it's not intended to be a replacement for everyday use. Missing functionality is not a bug, it's a feature.

OK, maybe they know better and that's a fair point. Except that the reason they voted was wrapped into propaganda level of lies and misrepresentations. The campaign on both side was so thin on facts and so big on lies that neither side really knew what they voted for.

Historically, the people that are in power now are the same guys with the same ideas and the same interests than the one that have been screwing them in the last 30 years. The vote is just giving them an immediate boost in power.

So they were mislead to follow the guy that has a consistent history of fucking them up. Maybe that's not technically directly voting against their own interests, but that does not look like the best decision one can take either.

edit: Note that you could probably say the same for the city workers. The UK has a consistent history of boosting its power. People working in the City, long term, are probably better off with neoliberal politic: they are on the winning side of the balance.

"The fact that something is in the law doesn’t mean it’s a fact, though."..."companies will surely try to circumvent it."

Yeah, this is very well said. Most laws in Bulgaria are either not enforced or "avoidable" :)
I hate to break it to you, and this really is as difficult for the French to understand as it is for the Russians to understand that they should not be occupying other countries or for the Japanese to know that they committed atrocious war crimes against Koreans or for Mexicans to know that they treat Guatemalan immigrants as bad or worse as the US treats Mexican immigrants. That is, something that cuts deep against your national identity and the thing that you hear in school, in government, all around you. Something against what you've been immersed in your whole French life:

France does not have the exclusive right to define what "French" is.

Québec and other parts of the Francophonie have many differing versions of French, and not all Quebeckers speak Joual exclusively (nor do all New Brunswickers[1] speak Chiac exclusively). The French spoken in Québec has the same rich history and origins as the French spoken in Québec. You can read more about the history of Québec French here:

Wow, I like this a lot!
Our web site is driven by natively-compiled Object Pascal code (written using Delphi) that dynamically generates every single page:

http://www.elevatesoft.com

(it needs a face-lift, for sure)

Our product Elevate Web Builder allows you to write client web applications using Object Pascal and a RAD IDE:

http://www.elevatesoft.com/products?category=ewb&type=web

(examples are at bottom of the page)

The IDE/compiler/web server used in Elevate Web Builder were written using Delphi. We've also written two small database engines, as well as two ODBC drivers and a .NET data provider, using Object Pascal and Delphi. Object Pascal is a very versatile and useful language that allows you to write applications that do just about anything from front-end UIs to back-end server code. Being able to debug server-side code in the IDE is a life-saver and allows one to get to the root of any coding issues immediately.

FreePascal is also equally nice, albeit a little rougher around the edges in certain places. But, every year it gets better and more polished and has come a very long way since its humble origins.
Full integration does not require that you -only- be able to speak standardish english. I think the key of studying and destigmatizing AAVE is to allow the very type of integration that you want. By raising AAVE to the standard of a "real" language/dialect, instead of just calling it "broken english" (thus casting the speaker as broken in someway), you now open the door to the speaker being bilingual - something that is both clearly attainable, and perhaps in many ways possibly beneficial.

Calling is broken generates defensive attitudes that will likely impede any actual process of integration.

One of the reasons I stopped buying Apple products was this type of interaction. I had a Macbook Air, and it would freeze up randomly for several seconds at a time. There were no error messages or anything, and finally found out when I tried to upgrade the OS that it wouldn't install on the drive because it was failing. Eventually I figured out how to find the SMART status, and took it in since it was under warranty.

The rep kept trying to get me to reinstall the OS since "if that's the problem, they'd have to charge me for it". Never mind that the installer wouldn't run... After about 15 minutes of this back and forth with him trying to prove that nothing was wrong and me showing the SMART status, he finally went in back and asked someone who told him to take it in.

> The commonly accepted - but rather tenuous - criterion for distinguishing distinction between language and dialect is speakers of different dialects being mutually intelligible to each other when making the effort.

What's interesting is that I've seen Spanish and Portuguese speakers do this (enough to have a conversation, though I can't say how well that went). On the other hand, there are certain Chinese dialects (though maybe not considered dialect by linguistics) where the speaker of one finds it just about impossible to understand what the speaker of the other is saying.
Agreed. I understand the choice, but for the same effect at least pick "no felony" or "NotAFelony" or "Constitutional" just to hope that it gets debated in court whether "Constitutional" is illegal and used by IS*.

Some people act so self-entitled, it hurts. Just because you seem to neither have appreciation for beauty nor humanities, doesn't free you from acknowledging it in others.

Your premise seems to be that all languages are 'Turing-equivalent': Given enough time+patience you can "explain" the meaning of every expression in every other language. To be honest, a book that wastes my time "explaining" concepts from the language it was originally written in is not a book I would consider fun.

I hope you can agree, that describing a feeling is not the same as actually feeling it. But you don't accept that there are words that evoke a feeling in a native speaker, that are not evoked by reading a translation in another language?

There are already several examples of phrases in this thread that can only clumsily be explained in English, and some of them are for exactly this reason already used by English speakers. The amount of scientific publications on indivual pieces of literature should also tell you that language as art is more than describing things.

Btw, your example of scientific papers is entirely besides the point because their purpose precisely is to just describe something, instead of evoking feelings or images in the readers mind, tapping into his stream of associations/values/lifelong cultural traditions etc. You also claim that _all_ human thoughts in history are "rather limited" when compared to modern "scientific papers". This is trolling, I hope.

Finally, the fact that you make out your own language as the lingua franka of all humanity does not do much good to your argument, which has a priori nothing to do with a specific language. Rather, it makes you look stereotypical Western-centric.
That's because you can simply add functionality and increase the minor version of the library. If you change the first digit you have removed or modified an interface. The same can be said about an API. Most API developers don't delete an API call or change the POST params on working code, they simply add a new function.
yeah same here I get Javascript errors.
It's hard to believe that the same company putting out such awesome stuff as the fully open-source .NET Core is also displaying nagware popups with "OK" buttons that can easily be accidentally clicked. Talk about dark patterns...

Even more amusing: My wife has an older Dell Precision laptop that, according to Dell's own website (and my own experience trying to upgrade it) cannot be upgraded to Windows 10. Yet, the upgrade icon is in the system tray. I've warned my wife to be aware of this nagware popup and to be careful about accidentally accepting the upgrade.

To Microsoft: Remove your invasive, difficult-if-not-impossible-to-disable telemetry and data-gathering services and you will eliminate perhaps the biggest reason to remain unupgraded. Until then, this nagware screen just throws fuel on the fire.
I think most hardcore fitness people would die early. DNA telomeres can "turn over" a roughly fixed number of calories in a lifetime (2000 * 365 * 80). If you increase your rate of caloric burn, and increase your rate of caloric consumption, you burn through your telomere's ability to use the energy. And then you experience cell death that much sooner. Getting the right amount of exercise, not too much and not too little, is the best way to increase longevity.
For me, mobile web and native app are largely solving two different use cases.

If it's one of the handful of places that I use regularly, and want frequent quick access to, it's probably going to be an app. I use apps for my main news sites, for my bus timetable, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon etc.

If it's an occasional visit it's going to be the web. I'm not going to be downloading dedicated apps just to browse a forum that I've been to a couple of times ever, if I'm just trying to check prices across a whole bunch of shops or if I'm trying to get the opening time of a restaurant.

There are a few that fall into the middle ground of visiting every now and then. But for the vast majority of the time there's a pretty clear web/app split, at least for me.
Saleshandy vs Mailtrack* One-On-One Comparision Sheer Mailtrack Alternative
As the article points out, there is evidence from Norwegian experiments that "[t]eaching children to read first in their own dialects and then gradually introducing the standard language can speed and improve the acquisition of reading skills."

Further, "[i]n Oakland itself... it was found that teachers who condemned AAVE pronunciations [sic] and interpreted them as reading errors got the worst results in teaching AAVE-speaking children to read, while teachers who used AAVE creatively in the classroom got the best results."

I couldn't find evidence in the article that anyone was telling young black Americans that they could talk like "hoodlums" and expect to get ahead in life.
Maybe. In my case it's often protection against bullshit things I have to do but I'd rather don't. Sadly, the "system 1" in my brain doesn't understand that it's not just "have to do", it's "have to do, or else...".

Native apps and Web apps are essentially the same thing. They're both running inside a sandbox environment (be it the OS or the browser). The real difference is that the Web sandbox is more constrained. Other than that (and yes I'm looking at you people who think URIs are the coming of jesus), there's really no difference between the two.

Inevitably the platform which has less constraints will win.
I don't think "no felony" has the same ring to it though! ;)
