For the hardcore players with money to burn on traveling, sure. There was a player in our area who booked a flight to Hawaii literally just to field over the western half of the continent. There's also the risk/reward of holding an out of the way Guardian portal, even though it's easy to achieve that badge with a local portal too.

I don't think the creators of the game envisioned that kind of dedication, though. And you're right, that is a fundamental difference between Pokemon GO (which despite the claims of its older players, is definitely targeted at teens and children) and Ingress.
Btw @sytse, would be cool if we could assign issues to several milestones. That way, we could use milestones as "view" for a given set of issues, each being ordered differently. This would allow different teams to have different prioritization, with a central issue hub. All of that by "just" allowing an issue to be in several milestones.

Correct me if im wrong, but I would assume that the motor must still be 'attached' somewhere, else the momentum would not translate into moving the satellite. (Wouldnt it be akin to having a gyroscope just floating inside of a satellite- Suddenly stopping it would have no effect on the satellite since it would not be actually attached- ala, the fly in a car scenario) - So, with that, if it is indeed attached somehow, wouldn't the friction component still be at play?

I've been using it with friends and family for awhile on Android and macOS and it's fantastic, in theory. It has however been plagued with lots of bugs. The calling functionality, which I've used a lot, often stalls at "joining" and then nothing happens. It's not as polished or flawless as Telegram. It does not have a feature to compress video before sending for instance. But I can only expect that to change. Especially now, when anyone can write their own client.

This is similar to my experience verifying imperative code (as part of http://itu.dk/research/tomeso): rewrite code as pure as possible (learning that mutation is premature optimisation), then try to specify and prove it.

Aside, if we're reinventing the wheel anyways, why not in a proper style? There's no reason to not deploy purely functional code (+some effectful shims). Think https://mirage.io https://nqsb.io -- rust has way too much mutation and unsafe builtin already...

catch_unwind, probably? Its not supposed to be used for exceptions and if you try to use it for them there are some barriers in the way. But these are not fundamental barriers and can be solved through codegen, which is how the language is planning to work anyway.
This is a great start. I too got frustrated with the overwhelming complexity of the "boilerplate" or "starter kits" that have all the bells and whistles.

Even if the rotor is held by magnetic fields, the centrifugal forces exerted on the rotor must be huge. I guess it is small enough, but I'm curious if it was a problem or not (CDs will crack if they spin too fast).
As opposed to my "voluntary" contributions and obligations to the state? In that case, it's all about a magical "social contract" that I never signed, and inherited from birth. From birth, let that sink in for a little bit. That is an order of magnitude more slave-like than a voluntary contract that I enter into as an adult.

But when it comes to an actual contract, willingly signed, then "oh but you have to sign to survive". Well yes, except I don't. I can go live in the middle of nowhere and live off the land. You try doing that with the anything state-related, and then tell me how voluntary it is.

</rant>
As far as I know, the identity is just a public key. You can add contacts only by either scanning a qr-code disayed on your contact's phone in person or by being introduced to each other by a mutual contact, so there is no real need for discovery. As there are no servers at all (not even federated), this also means that no one can even enumerate users.

>Here `iter` is a pointer. We dereference it and increment the result. This adds 1 to every value in the `foo` vector.

Huh? How is `iter` related to foo? When you go `iter += 1` aren't you just incrementing the variable behind iter?

Unless... OK, I'm not very familiar with C or C++, totally newb here. Are you doing pointer arithmetics here, when you increment iter?

But wait, if you are doing pointer arithmetic, I thought you are not supposed to deref the pointer. Otherwise you are doing arithmetics on the variable behind the pointer, not the pointer itself.

Also, with `foo[0] += *iter`, you are just adding iter to the first element of foo, again and again. You are not actually iterating on foo.

I'm confused...

Some math on the weight issue - A big rig tractor unit is about 10 tons in weight. A tesla model S battery is about half a ton. The energy to move a truck is maybe 8x (given trucks get 5mpg, cars 40mpg approx), so that's a 4 ton battery for 200 mile range. Electric motors weigh much less than a large diesel engine so the weight would come out about the same. I think cost may be more of an issue.

In fact, Rust is working on hooks for GC-as-a-library. I'll be writing a blog post on this very soon. The gist of it is that you'll some intrinsics for rooting, and some useful traits, on which you can build a GC or write safe bindings to a GCd language. In line with Rust philosophy, this won't cost anything unless you use it.

(rust-gc already exists, but it can be far more efficient with some compiler support. I would recommend waiting for that.)
"CPUs are basically assembly interpreters, and that's the most fundamental unit of execution that we can target"

See my comment above, Rust may (probably will) get intrinsics and traits that let you write a gc that works with the compiler. Not as awesome as a GC irrevocably designed into the compiler, but good enough.
There were, of course, the lisp machines - Open Genera etc - which did a lot of that.
For the last few years I've been keeping an eye on Geneuro [1]. They're trialling a HERV-W antibody on the theory that this endogenous retrovirus triggers an immune reaction in the brain that causes multiple sclerosis.

When/if it does get approved for MS, I will be asking if it can be tried off-label on my brother with schizophrenia (although of course it may be too late now anyway, 15 years after his diagnosis).

As others have pointed out, the difference is a sacrifice in compilation time to more quickly implement a langauge very semantically similar to rust. If it's not super similar to rust, you are simply jumping through more hoops than it is worth. Yes, LLVM IR is a pretty decent compilation target. And honestly, having costly abstractions provided to you would probably encourage you to generate poorer code. But I digress.
It's amusing that you had to even respond - both commenters simply painted two extreme strawmen, both worthless:

* A ravenous addict who consumes absolutely anything (The implication not that they are low maintenance and preference-less, but that they are driven by almost mental illness)

It's pretty obvious most people are not either

Liner: a nice chrome extension
If you're thinking about desktop apps, then one way to do it is simply ship a Java app that embeds WebKit (if you insist on using HTML even when a real widget toolkit is available). There is a Java Tor client available that can be embedded called Orchid, and then binding Orchid through to the Javascript world is not very difficult. It'd be a weird way to do things though. May as well just ship all needed data files and resources in the app itself.

On the wider issue, I don't know if Tor is really doing such a great job of helping people in censoring states. Whenever I hear about Chinese people crossing the firewall it's always with VPNs and never Tor, which is thoroughly blocked for a long time now. One of the theories of Tor was that if there was lots of legitimate usage, it'd be harder to filter out Tor traffic ("anonymity loves company" they call it), but that goal was clearly better achieved using VPNs which impose minimal performance costs and has left Tor itself largely isolated.

This sort of attack on the Tor network by large groups of malicious nodes is inevitable in a borderless community where there is no procedure for vetting or ID verifying new node operators. Tor assumes ideological loyalty from its node operators, that's a fundamental security assumption, but at the same time, a part of the Tor ideology is that there's no vetting procedure for nodes, nor are there any real rules for running them beyond a few trivial ones, and anyway without the former there's no way to enforce the latter. Tor is built on a giant contradiction, essentially.

Of course that's not a problem unique to Tor. All communities that make majority trust assumptions without any way to control group membership have that problem. Bitcoin has suffered from this too, as has the British Labour party (which recently changed its rules to allow anyone to become a member by paying just £3, a move which immediately led to Corbyn and may yet lead to ~all existing MPs being fired and replaced by hard-left zealots).
When you grow out of it, you run "eject" and customize everything you want.

We think in the beginning many will "eject" but we will gradually make the defaults better to cover more and more use cases.
I strongly agree with vinceguidry. When there's a recession the advice I give and follow is invest in yourself. Learn new things, become better, heck, go to the gym seriously. In short, put yourself head and shoulders above the rest of the flock (them being your competition, for a gig, a job, etc).

That being said I really don't think budgeting will have the same effect... But my motto is "whatever works". Furthermore you're not advocating against improving oneself but saying that you should do that AND budget.

So I'll try that for the second half and 2016 and for 2017 and keep you posted at the end of 2016 and at the end of 2017.

You can't call something an "anti-Hillary story" if it's an uneditorialized dump of emails. Of course it's mostly Bernie supporters pushing it: the leaks show the DNC worked against Bernie while colluding with Hillary's camp.

I think we mostly agree here? By the "#DNCLeak story" I mean the analysis of the emails as well as the leak itself - that's what is happening under that hashtag.

the media won't report because the leak shows they've been taking orders from the DNC.

The only thing I've seen on this is the "Chuck, this must stop" email. It's pretty clear that was a wish, not an order (otherwise why the follow up call). Anyone who's watched any political drama on TV has seen how often politicians offices call journalists to complain - I don't see much different here?

Also, the media is reporting the leaks, pretty heavily. The NY Times[1] and CNN[2] amongst plenty of others both have major stories.

I think I agree with everything else you say.

(If it matters, I don't think Hillary is a great candidate, and wouldn't class myself as a supporter. I would have liked to see a much broader set of candidates in the Democratic race.)

JQuery 3.1.0 Released – No More Silent Errors on July 7, 2016 by Timmy Willison
Can someone explain this:

"Second, LLVM is a simpler language to target than traditional assembly languages—it has nice features like infinite registers and recently support for stack frames."

Aren't stack frames a basic component of any run time? How was support for those only recently added? Maybe I am not fully understanding the context. I looked at this docs but it didn't clear it up for me.
Why is this trending now, this was released in May.

And if anyone knows how to use this with log files from remote servers this would make me very happy.

Nice to see more immutable data structures for C++. I recently implement a persistent list inside a personal project, it's quite easy using shared_ptr (a set of persistent list forms a DAG, so no loop).

It would be nice to have a persistent version of all standard containers. It seems that implementing "Finger Tree" would be a good start as a basic building block. But I didn't find any c++ implementation.
Actually there has been a bit of movement on this board - they did some initial cost analysis and it came out way to expensive ($1000 a board!) so they are going back to the drawing board.

Again, I see a lot of incorrect or illogical arguments here.
You are arguing magnitudes here, not morality or ethics, so not so easy as you say.

If you agree and respect IP laws, stealing by a big company or by a poor person is indistinguishable morally. They are both wrong. You may emote or perceive them emotionally different, but that is a different argument. You can't selectively apply it to different entities. Abandoning a child at a roadside to die who was under 5 years old was not illegal in ancient Rome at one time. Morality or legality? All or none?

My cloudiness eluded above is one of thinking that a newer business model will evolve eventually on IP, but we cannot try to force or accelerate it by committing illegal acts if we agree and live under those laws. The alternative is anarchy and no government, which is a choice to some people.
Exactly.

We don't like classes, but we don't like "pseudo classes" (createClass) even more. Better the devil that's standardized.

We already offer a way to create stateless components with just functions. We will keep exploring that space and eventually might have a class-less solution we like that satisfies all our use cases.

I don't think the point is to translate existing languages to rust, though ten author seems to have tried it with success with js (and maybe others?).

The point is to translate new, generally higher level languages to rust. These won't fall afoul of the borrow checker if handled right. I suspect Rust will not have a major restricting effect on their design either. A lot of the borrow checker issues can be papered over with sufficient codegen. When I was working on rust-gc, I often remarked that if we wrote some codegen plugins that convert all types to `Gc<RefCell<Trait>>`, we're effectively Java ;) (Most of this papering over can be done in a way that avoids runtime cost, though not this specific simplistic example for Java)

Though there is this thing called Corrode which is trying to translate C into Rust and iirc they are trying to minimize the unsafe usage in the generated code. That may eventually be able to convert your code into an indexed iteration.

(Also, while the specific code you wrote is safe, if the mutation being performed were more complicated with a non-primitive, it could lead to segfaults)
This would make people expect us to implement everything it does. We currently don't plan to.
