Why create a lambda just to execute it and then discard it?
The asm version is much more performant. The Go version is a port of the version in NSS, but the compiler is free to screw it up in various ways. Furthermore correctness is always a concern: cleverness in unsaturated arithmetic code can be hard.
The main rationale for hosting my own site is that I do not want to depend on a single provider, ever. Using GH, or Akamai, or Cloudflare, etc means putting all your eggs in one basket. And outages do happen at these companies.

I argue that the statistical chances that 3 outages occur at the same moment at my 3 different providers on 3 different continents is less than the chance of a single outage at a single CDN. Not because of technical reasons, after all they are extremely redundant, but because of process reasons: they are a single company with company-wide processes and sometimes human errors happen causing company-wide outages.

I do realize it sounds silly to be obsessed as I am with redundancy :) but I love exploring these sorts of ideas to see how well they work in practice.

Sort of.

Obviously, for a great many tools that wouldn't be an option because it would break compatibility for scripts that have been running for decades.

And \0 isn't necessarily a safe delimiter for all types of lists.

But, for lists of file names (and other strings that cannot contain \0), yes, I believe that automatically using it when stdout is not connected to a terminal would be a reasonably good idea.
Bypassing idiotic and/or incompetent corporate IT departments is an everyday activity for half the people who post in HN. I haven't seen any proof that her email server was hacked and the two "classified" emails Comey spoke about were mis-categorized and not actually sensitive at all. Just like the Benghazi nonsense I have yet to see any actual proof, just a lot of political theater.

This is and was a transparent attempt to squash Hillary's run for president. That's all. The tone of your post betrays your own naked political bias as well.

Hillary's actual decisions while SoS have a far greater effect on the US as a country than everything related to her email put together.

There are plenty of legitimate things to criticize her on, we don't need to make up nonsense. It's OT anyway.

The problem's not on your end -- a lot of these blogs are just junk, probably the vast majority of ones that fall under "advocacy". As far as I can tell, the author's objection to conditionals is based on a misunderstanding of a different blog post[0]. It's nonsense.

Really understanding where FP is coming from requires an introduction to programming language semantics[1]. Interesting stuff, but not immediately useful to a working C programmer.

Some political analysts are saying that this coup was staged by Erdogan to get rid of the remaining opposition.

Basically the theory is that there was a very weak plan in effect that the government knew about, and helped move it along (to get it started). While being completely prepared to deal with it.

7 Things I've Learned 20 Weeks into High-Tech Entrepreneurship
Thank you for clarifying the approach (and with not trying to use latex!) :).

The issue is, of course, the illegitimate manipulation of a diverging series, which was the exact issue that prompted the original article (due to Numberphile doing it) in the first place.
I'm as cynical as the next guy, but it's seriously hard to deny how far this research has gone in recent times. Give it time.
For a nice compromise - much cheaper per-mail costs with a WYSIWYG editor, give SendGrid a shot. I'd say we occupy the middle ground between the historically marketing-focused MailChimp and the no-frills (not very marketer friendly) Amazon SES.

How to Really Learn to Code
The rationale seems to be that shared IPs are cheaper for them (and the customer). It's also possible that Postmark doesn't have the capacity to operate a large number of dedicated IPs for individual customers.

Any large-scale sender for whom deliverability is critical should be using a dedicated IP. By virtue of hosting multiple customers, shared IPs appear to send more frequently, and any behavior on a shared IP resulting in a blacklist entry affects everyone else on that IP.

We're pretty aware of this problem at SendGrid. Even though we make every effort to cull bad senders from our shared pools, our enterprise senders nearly always prefer dedicated IPs, which let them build up a trusted reputation without interference from others.
I agree. He saw the government doing illegal shit. He raised his concerns internally and only after they fell on deaf ears he released incriminating documents to veteran media to decide for themselves what the public has a right to know. Snowden is a hero.
Inter-Procedural Optimization and Derefinement
You guys aren't disagreeing exactly. acjohnson55 mentioned "Medieval and Renaissance" but you're just talking about the Renaissance, and the Medieval-to-Renaissance transition is the interesting part (I think acjohnson55 just got the timing a bit wrong). The major third as a consonant interval became accepted in the early Renaissance. Most medieval composers considered thirds to be dissonant, which makes medieval music sound strange to modern listeners because things don't resolve as we expect them to, with phrases often ending on open fourths or fifths instead of triads (though to be fair, their third was somewhat different than ours because of changes in temperament over time).

I would say it's much like f(x) = sqrt(x) over real numbers. sqrt(-16) doesn't exist, but it is still convenient to think about the square root of negative number (for say factoring polynomials). In this case, our function happens to have a representation at f(-1) being equivilent to 1 + 2 + 3 + ..., and being able to calculate f(-1) = -1/12 much like sqrt(-16) = 4i when we introduce i = sqrt(-1).
For that matter it's been my experience that CFLs do not last significantly longer than incandescents, dispite claims all that matters to me is what I experience.

Really, how does it handle parsing? What kind of languages can you parse?

I recall this paper, by Joe Armstrong of Erlang... I'll have to go read it again.

"Use of Prolog for developing a new programming language"

https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cluster=23466104209097450...

Hm after scanning it, I think the reason I never really got it the first time around is that I don't know Prolog :) Might be time to fix that.

What turned me off to Prolog is that there's no way to reason about the computational complexity of the algorithm. Declarative languages often have this problem. That's why you have SQL queries that literally take thousands of times longer than a Python script in production (hours vs seconds). Programming models also need performance models.
General principle: for every possible refactoring, the opposite refactoring is sometimes a good idea.

So, yes, replacing booleans with a callback is sometimes a good idea. But in other situations, replacing a callback with a simple booleans might also be a good idea.

Also, advice like this is often language-specific. In languages whose functions support named parameters, boolean flags are easy to use and easy to read. If you only have positional parameters, it's more error-prone, so you might want to pass arguments using enums or inside a struct instead.

So? It's not surprising that the internet played a significant role in the coup. It plays a significant role in everything.

The only evidence I see here of "cyberpower" stopping the coup is Erdogan having given a statement via FaceTime on television. Yes, that's amusing to see, but it doesn't tell us anything about coups.
Agreed. Read the reports from the investiation: Benghazi and the emails are the new Swiftboat [1], and it's particularly telling that they don't have anything better to talk about. Move along.

I don't disagree. abraca's statement that he was surprised that Hillary got let off the hook and thus Snowden should too. In a nutshell, my reply to him was that worse sins of the same nature have gone unpunished, so it isn't the least bit surprising that Clinton wasn't charged with a crime.
You guys in the west have some seriously deep delusions about freedom and the internet. Or maybe I should say the brainwashing is strong from the people who most benefit from it.

Ignorance, fear and corruption has increased despite the internet and some would rightly argue because of it. Just look at Trump, the rising power of the right wing in Europe, Turkey, India etc.

You think debates about modernity and the religious status quo aren't going on within Muslim households all over the world without access to a fucking youtube video? This is the kind of superiority complex that justified Bush's Wars.

Just know this just because they make you sing about freedom like robots from childhood doesn't mean the rest of the world needs to be singing with you. It's your song. It's your way of life and if others want it let them choose it without the "free internet" and all the consequences of it being shoved down our throats. And thank god for the Chinese.
Although, through a long career, I've become accustomed to a wide variety of CLIs, I tend to agree: We've moved beyond 1999 a bit. The fact that a lot of these systems have legacy and tradition isn't sufficient. Languages like COBOL also have a long history. But now we have lots of other languages to choose from.

First off, as much as possible, I'd eliminate non-words. I tutor a lot and people think perhaps I have a speech impediment the first time I say "grep". (Yes, I know, it's not technically part of the shell. But okay how about "fi" and "esac"? Really? Why not "enod" then?)

I'd take command completion further: IDEs often have drop-downs and function signature descriptions as you move along coding. In a hypertext world with tooltips, etc, I think there's be a lot of room for those types of ideas.

I do think the philosophy of "do one thing and one thing only, but do it well" is a good one. Piping stuff together is wonderful. I wonder if it would make sense and be shorter to explain in plain English, if the "water flowed the other way" instead. For example:

"sort the output of the find result" = sort | find

as opposed to:

"take the output of find and sort it" = find | sort

(That last bit was just a random thought of the moment, just trying to think a wee bit outside of the box.)
Being prosecuted wouldn't disqualify her legally. Still, if it happened before the convention, it might have resulted in her not getting the nomination (by enough superdelegates shifting to Derby her a majority of delegates), but that would just mean someone else, probably Sanders, would get the nomination.
Ok. What if you were a high level employee that could force change and you still circumvented the systems in place to protect information systems. And while you went around the secure systems you left your server unpatched and open to compromise from competitors.
mostly "ditto". 54.
>One counterpoint to that is every political system since the dawn of time has held up people like Pinker who say we're living in the best of all possible systems and the other ones are awful, people need a strong government to keep them in check, and so forth.

Pinker never says anything like this I can remember and it doesn't even sound like something like something he talks about. Could you point out something that lead you to this interpretation?
That's not constructive...

I agree. WTF? LoDash was here all along... What is this discussion about?
Why is "number of unique species" an interesting metric? If island A had three species of deer and island B had one species of deer and one species of wolf, island A would win under this measure, though B might seem more diverse.

Additionally, defining a species is a really messy problem (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Species_problem). A more objective measure, like fraction of shared genome, might make more sense in this context.

Inversion of control both increases the user's power (anything that implements a certain interface can be used) and adds an extra burden. Especially here,

match caseInsensitive contains

it takes a bit of thought to match the regex-like concept of "Case insensitive match flag" to "case insensitivity can be achieved by a transformation of the pattern and target so that case doesn't matter". Perhaps the right way to relieve this burden is to provide some simple functions that can be used for the common cases (caseInsensitive, caseSensitive) and a sensible default (caseSensitive).

The medium that seems to have been most effective in getting people into the streets was the public address systems of mosques. The traditional call to prayer involved a muezzin in a minaret (that's what minarets on mosques are for). But now mosques use a PA system, often with considerable audio power. That's available for other purposes.

That doesn't seem like a practical solution. One keyword can change the expected search results dramatically, for example:

"red ford mustang" and "red ford mustang toy",

"wall street 2015" and "wall street 2015 protest",

"photos of jam" and "photos of jam jars", etc.

In some cases there may be overlap but a lack of it doesn't necessarily indicate censorship.
Thank you for the pointer toward what seems like an excellent read! Just ordered it on Amazon.
Absolutely. Neither you, nor I, nor anyone reading this has ever lived through anything even remotely approaching the sort of privations that were routinely experienced by people everywhere in every century up until the last. "IP law bureaucracy" pales in comparison. Again, I say this not as someone with any sort of firsthand knowledge, but simply as a student of history.

I don't agree. If the PR you're reviewing is expected to be merged into a development branch, you can either:

1. Merge without comment. Unless the contributor is closely following development, they won't even notice what you do with the contribution between your development and release branches.
2. Merge with a comment that you'll be cleaning it up before release, and if you want the person to continue contributing explain what you'll be doing.

Differentiating stewardship from producing solutions can go a long way toward eliminating debate over minutiae.

If there's still tense back and forth, it's probably over approach, understanding of the problem, or awareness of consequences. In none of those cases should the PR be merged. If you want to engage the contribution, explain what the contributor missed and close the PR. If you don't think the contribution is going to be productive, just close it.
I understand how these call would cost Instagram/Google/Microsoft money. But, could someone please explain why a call to a premium number "earns" the account holder money?
That is new pricing, you can get great discounts on used, although when companies rip out their cubicles, they figure they'll get good money for them, but they typically sell for pennies, much like most office equipment.

Anyway, I've only heard of companies typically ripping out their cubicles to switch to open flooxplan, or starting out on the cheap, line-em-up, see who fits your culture, ostracize the others.
Shor's algorithm covers discrete logarithm also.

But most modern asymmetric algorithms are based on elliptic curves and other problems that quantum computers don't help with.
Not to bust on what they're doing, but it seems like React may not have been the best initial choice. However, it seems like the investment time aspect means the chance of learning is worth more than the "best tool" aspect.

I like that they were able to admit to not doing something the best way and then shared how they made it better. It makes me more curious to try out Phoenix as well.
Fortunately, you only need a bright bulb for flashlights and for fixtures that are intended for incandescent bulbs. For general interior lighting, a large array/string of relatively dim LEDs is usually fine.
You are completely wrong about the findings about Hillary. She was not trying to break the law. She made a stupid decision, she should suffer criminal penalties for it, but she was just an idiot. Let's compare that to something that was found to have occurred with criminal intent:when the Bush administration outed the cia agent, Valerie Plame, that was a clearly intentional illegal action.
Obviously an environmental disaster if everyone had these.

> Rust is sort of emulating exceptions in a weird way.

Except at the level Rust operates at, the code generation for exceptions vs. not is a thing. Not relying on landing pads, etc, is a thing people care about, and is why there's significant difference between return values vs exceptions can matter, even if at some higher semantic level, they're roughly equivalent.
Ummm. Many common day to day languages don't use lambdas. Also I have no idea what they are. So - yeah I don't think you can just replace if so easily.
"actors are called ‘grains’,"

If you can write a sentence "X are called Y", and X is more well-known, drop Y.

"You can then send messages to the grain by creating a proxy object, and calling the methods:
var grain = GrainClient.GrainFactory.GetGrain<IMyGrain>("grain1"); await grain.SayHello("World");"

var brain = BrainClient.BrainFactory.GetBrain<IMyBrain>("brain1"); await brain.Say("WTF");
So you can obtain a premium number, and then when anyone calls you on that number they get charged the rate that you set per minute and after fees, you get the money. That's how pay per minute phone services (esp. adult services) work.

So what he did was to get one of those numbers and then have Google / Facebook / Instagram call that number repeatedly and that's how he would get money.
The article seems a little confused. We've known for a long time that the immune system affects behaviour (see "sickness behaviour").

If I'm understanding this correctly, the key fact seems to be that that IFN-y is used both as an immune signalling cytokine, as well as being used for communication within the brain.

The degree of compromise depends on the sophistication of the attackers. It might just be unnecessary credit card charges. It might be that plus full system control.

My take is that the only way to assess the level of compromise is to see if Intel's Asset Management Technology [1] has been enabled. That means looking at the BIOS. It might be easier to ship the computer back and forth than to walk through diagnosis and repair.

Good luck.
