For me the #1 rule for macros is to never, ever use one if you can use a function instead. With this in mind, surely you could just write

(html
(head
(title "Hello")
(style :media "screen" :type "text/css" ........))))

What is the value of a macro in this context?
In my case the fix was to not allocate so much space. The vector was always being resized to 64 KiB. After considering lots of other options I decided that the most pragmatic fix was just a smaller constant to the vector constructor. I don't remember why the other options weren't practical.

In my case Google know even more than that. With my use of Android they know where I work, where I do my shopping, what time I get up and go to bed, how much time I spend at the gym. In short, they could have a hugely detailed profile on me. Yet like you I find their ads not particularly targeted. (This is odd, but as a Google shareholder I'm glad there is a lot more room to improve)
That's actually a pretty reasonable idea, considering that we have several fairly different renderers for React already: DOM, Native and Three.js (http://izzimach.github.io/demos/react-three-interactive/inde...).

The big question is, should it render down to D3's API, or should it implement it in a way that is idiomatic to React, like this demo?

Though not exactly accurate, it's a good way to make the point that touch screens don't respond to force (some mac products aside). My mom usually bangs harder on the screen when it's unresponsive. That doesn't help. If you think of the screen as responding to body heat, that could teach the right gesture.
I agree. I think that there could be more finely grained permissions. I basically have so sigh and resign myself anytime I want an extension badly enough.
I follow about 7,000 users, most of whom I don't know personally but have followed because we're in the same industry. But I don't ever attempt to read my feed beyond a couple of minutes. If a Tweet from a user I care about gets drowned out by 20 tweets from the randoms I follow...it's no big deal. I follow enough like minded people that many of them will retweet something that I want to see. And I like seeing random stuff from semi-random people...that to me is what Twitter is for.
His license requires that his credit be retained. If the new project didn't do that (which I'm assuming it didn't), it's both plagiarism and a copyright violation (which aren't the same thing).

If the new project did retain his credit, then, yeah, he's got no legal recourse.

I concur, it is what developing economies strive for and what developed(sic) economies strive to maintain. Anything is possible, it is the methodology that provides the results(good & bad). This philosophy has been the acme of societal success since blood-letting was believed to be a cure all & the earth was thought to be the center of the universe. The tangible reality is, higher & higher margins are required to achieve that growth. Whether this is achieved by tech, innovation, exploitation or inflation is moot, what is certain is always more has it's costs & limits.
This program was fantastic, given the limitations of the computers at the time.

WordStar ran well
on a 4 MHz Z80 computer
with 64K bytes of memory.

Go ahead, read that sentence again!

WordStar would try to update its (sort of WYSIWYG) screen display while you were typing, but it would often lag. That was because many computers were connected not to an internal video display card, but to an external terminal via an RS-232 serial interface running at 19,200 baud (1,920 characters per second). Fortunately the display output was as ASCII characters, not bitmapped, so that lessened the processing requirements quite a bit.

Whenever WordStar detected that its screen rendering was lagging behind the input typing, it would very cleverly "skip ahead" in the rendering. The result was that the computer felt quite responsive at all times.
This is true. But only to a very localized, i.e. self-centered, and very short-sided both ahead and behind person.

I remember the marauding hordes, genocide has occurred in your lifetime. Just not to you.

Mobile UI prototyping: What not to do
I figure a lot of the extra time and money spent is confirm expectations on how well the individual components held up to the stress. Throw in a few flights and you might start to see more fatigue issues creeping in and the test is, are they occurring where expected or not. that temperature range they operate in has to have some strong effects too
What happens if you start with "fuddruckers"?
I used XyWrite extensively back in the DOS era. I recall that it was favored by newspaper and magazine writers because the codes matched the Atex typesetting system, and you could configure it to match line lengths of your typeset output. But the features that made it nice in a non-wysiwyg environment were of little value later.

This article actually indicates a (probably bug-bounty'able) flaw in the Chrome webstore security checks:

> The script that it fetches from the above server is a malware payload. The extension needs to download it after having been installed because it cannot ship with the payload if it wants to pass through the Chrome Webstore’s security checks.

There probably are legitimate reasons to pull in remote content, but I can't think of any that can't be worked around. You'd think that Google's own malware tracking would pick up http://104.131.35.136:9999/ as a bad site, but the malware author takes care to hide that delivery mechanism behind a header check.

So, to me, ANY request or evals by extensions should (at the very least) be detected and constitute a separate permissions category, or, better yet, BLOCKED as a violation of same origin policy.
Maybe some fingers of the government are demanding a backdoor, but other fingers of the government want tor to be as secure as possible. Tor is useful for the operations of national intelligence agents, too, and can only maintain that use when they know it doesn't have a backdoor which say the Chinese could then discover and exploit.
Yeah. I think the premise is reasonable - d3 can be a bit of a pain, but I'm not convinced this is the answer.
Why are you so sure that this is a bad thing for our brains? I find it difficult to tell what is work and what isn't (I work from home).

You may be misunderstanding the concept of Lockin. It says you are stuck with whichever vendor you used that created the lockin. Benefits of services always seem to increase. So, whatever benefits exist for a current service isn't worth forgoing all potential benefits of all future competitors. That's what lock-in creates. That's why it's always bad for anything meant long-term.

Now, short-term projects that can disappear in a few years or less have less risk for lock-in. We still see those disrupted on occasion when the vendor abruptly disappears. Users had to redo their work, which wouldn't have been necessary in lock-in free approach.
enter() and exit() are declarative. You're not causing anything at all to happen, but rather declaring what should happen, in the form of a function, when new data is found or data becomes stale.

Thanks for mentioning Xerox PARC's Bravo editor. This 1974 editor was the first WYSIWYG editor and supported multiple, proportionally-spaced fonts. If you look at the screenshots, Wordstar (1979) was character-based so I don't see how it could be called WYSIWYG.

The article says: "All modern word processors owe their existence to Wordstar". That's just nonsense, since the Bravo editor was written by Charles Simonyi, who then wrote Word. It would be more accurate to say that all modern word processors owe their existence to Bravo.
LOL. Well call me a raging moderate but I feel like there's room between "Don't like it? Leave!" and HOAs and Historic Preservation Districts that require a committee meeting to allow an exterior color change. But many of the modern townhomes (and this is where you and I differ) are quite ugly to me and a massive downgrade from what they replaced. A home in "rough" condition can be renovated, but what's to be done once someone builds an ugly townhome?

Was Kildall a better programmer than Gates?^U

Who wrote more elegant software?

Who undercut the price of the other's software? And why?

Microsoft's early success was not due to originality.

Gates has no aesthetic. He has no respectable standard of quality.

Does anyone remember "Microsoft Bob"?

He may be worthy of respect by less capable programmers. He may be worthy of respect by the business community. He may be worthy of respect for his philanthropic efforts.

But for software users who have any insight into and appreciation of software quality, he has yet to earn any respect. For these users, he has only impeded progress. And Microsoft continues this tradition to this day.

It is perfectly OK to critique him on this particular point.

[Original title was something like "Gates wrote this beauty at four in the morning."]

Exactly. There's a vicious cycle of expensive payloads driving costs of launches up (extra scrutiny, fewer launches, less experience, less cost-reducing hardware innovation - the RL-10 alone is sixty years old and quite expensive to build by hand from thousands of components, for example) in turn again driving costs of payloads up (you want the best bang for the buck if the price per kilogram is high, so you use overengineered spacecraft designs and materials).

Fortunately, there seems to be no shortage of ways out of this - new large markets like massive LEO constellations and fuel depots for more capable exploration missions immediately come to one's mind.

You published this under an open source license that allows anyone to fork and modify it as they see fit, as long as they include the license with their fork[0].

If they did so, then all you can (and should) do is stop complaining about other people doing what you gave them explicit permission to do.

The entire point of open source is that the code you write doesn't belong to you, it belongs equally to anyone who wants it.

This is a good start but it glosses over the hardest part of making React work with D3, which is animations. Most animations you want to do with D3 don't fall neatly into categories you can use with CSS animation (namely updating paths and entering / updating / exiting animations).

React as an ecosystem is pretty fantastic but the React animation story is still pretty terrible unfortunately. "Portals" / "reparenting" is a majorly hacky way of getting an element from one part of the DOM to another, and even React Motion, which solves a few of the animation gripes, is hard to use, slow, and brittle in my experience. There just isn't a good substitute for the enter-update-exit selections that make up the core of D3.

My usual workflow is to get as much DOM building done in React as I can, with D3 filling out the tricky bits. D3's lifecycles and direct DOM manipulation are much more complicated to reason about than React, on the whole.

> As have stated other film critics [1] this documentation takes a rather one-sided approach in that it's basically the fault of the west (and of the USSR).

This is also a major cultural problem to overcome for Muslims before they can be able to build enduring and prospering societies.

The thing is that every major power constantly meddles in the affairs of everyone else and it will never end, that's for sure. The Russians do it to the West, the West to the Russians, same as the Chinese, the Japanese and Indians do.

Yet these societies are not constantly on the verge of collapse and total chaos.

It is because these societies are more resilient to outside influence, because members of these societies feel more strongly connected to their government and to other members of their societies.

On the other hand in many Muslim societies I see tribal attitudes, one clan against all other clans. One Muslim group might even declare another Muslim group as an enemy on the basis of the smallest imaginable disagreement and start total war. No wonder their governments can be toppled and controlled from the outside if many don't feel a strong connection to their own nation and people.

Here this belief that all bad that has happened to you in your life is primarily caused by the US, the Soviets or more generally the infidels gives them an easy way to redirect their energy towards useless fighting (often among each other) instead of working together to improve their own societies.

This is a bad motivator for progress and nothing good or useful will ever come out of it.

If you face outside meddling then work hard on strengthening your own society so you can handle that stress, because it will never, ever stop.

I don't get it, so if I use CGI, and from my code, I query the env variable named 'HTTP_PROXY' , I will get what was set by the request header PROXY and not an environment variable 'HTTP_PROXY' as defined by the system the cgi executable is running on ?

edit :

I looked at CGI

I don't understand why this protocol just doesn't pass informations as an argument for the cgi script, why does it have to use environment variables ?
