Rectify dart and go for me, please.

Why should I learn one or the other?

If the ideas and concepts behind dart are so good why isn't golang taking input from it?

If golang is so good why does dart even exist?

Yes. I agree. So much.

These are my metrics for a good tech talk:

1) It is informative

2) It is entertaining

3) It is actually about tech

Well IAWAT (I Am A Woman In Tech) talks can be 1 and 2, they cannot be 3. That would be okay, if they were informative or entertaining, but they so often aren't. Many just quote the same statistics we've heard before, and call for change. There is a reason that I will watch Piotr Szotkowski's "Standard Library, Uncommon Uses," Or Linus Torvalds' talk on Git, or Hilary Mason's opening talk at FutureStack, or absolutely every talk Bryan Cantrill does (even if it IS just to play Bryan Cantrill Bingo), or countless other talks whose names I forget. Because they are informative, they are entertaining, and they are about tech. And male or female, if you give a good talk, I'll listen. If you just want to get on the stage and talk about your gender, then I will be out of your talk faster than an ICMP packet travelling down an empty fiber cable.
I totally misinterpreted the data; for some reason I assumed it was the number of students from each group that scored above some threshold, rather than the average score of that group.

My calculations are completely garbage, and I would withdraw the comment but it looks like I can't at this point.
I'm very torn on this subject. I'm always wary when browser vendors force the hand of users, programmers, and everyone else.

I fully understand that Flash has had an outsized share of vulnerabilities 'affecting browsing' over the years; I fully understand that Adobe has deprecated Flash for new content production; I fully appreciate that the 'web platform' has acquired new APIs and capabilities over the last four years, making it a more potent platform than the days when people opted for Flash or Silverlight because an external runtime was the only way to reliably deliver the experiences those developers wanted.

But in a world where a HTML webpage from 1991 [1] still loads and renders fine, I'm worried about the sheer amount of content that exists in Flash from the 2000s that will be made inaccessible. Sure, those developers should have known that developing on a proprietary platform is a risky bet, but this was back when Javascript was awful, browsers were racing to implement not-yet-final enhancements to CSS3 with vendor prefixes, and powerful vendors were bickering about which formats to support in a proposed <video> tag. These developers of course should've known better, but they had no other choice.

What Mozilla is doing here is actually quite reasonable, but they're under pressure from Google Chrome who can unilaterally decide to ban flash from all but the top 10 sites, and get away with it due to their control of multiple platforms and their unwillingless to compromise.

If Mozilla's tactics stray too far from Google's, they risk being seen as followers, rather than policy drivers; furthemore they answer to a divided fanbase that on one hand wants an open, independent web (in which Flash has no place), and on the other hand, wants a refuge from the incumbent browser maker's unilateral policies (currently Google, previously Microsoft).

This is why I structure the main meat of my CV by projects relevant to the position.

Sure, I have a list of all dunno-how-many programming languages I kinda used, and DB-engines and other crap so techies can satisfy their curiosity about the strange tech they might look for.

But I consider it much more useful to have a bunch of projects I did that are relevant to the position, what tech was involved, and how the tech was involved. I consider that a lot more valuable than a dumb list of stuff I might or might not have used less or not more or whatever. Especially if that list already display a level of self-reflection.
Show HN: Convert PDF files into structured data
Given that these Flash applications you're talking about are fully "boxed"—that is, the Flash and the page don't do any IPC, the Flash is just its own independent thing sitting "in" the page like an iframe—a transpiler that compatibility-shims all old Flash+JavaScript IPC-based app behaviors is a bit beyond what's necessary.

Really, what I expect to see is just an emulator specifically written for the sake of these old Flash games. Probably as a core of MESS, and thus of JSMESS, with the games then showing up in the Internet Archive's "Online Arcade" like everything else.
Probably, since "Skype for Business" is a renamed Microsoft Lync and has basically no technology in common with Skype per se. (Its user experience is also terrible, but differently so.)
Its crazy seeing motorcycle racers countersteer to get a deep, knee-on-the-ground lean into a turn, with the wheel and handlebars turned the opposite direction.

For cycling, I can only explain this passage by saying I lean a little left first, possibly providing that right torque, which then enables the handlebars to turn fully left into the turn.

But I have no idea what I'm talking about.
What percentage of the user base uses that functionality? Especially considering that at the point you require the ability to "import millions of rows of data from multiple data sources into a single Excel workbook" you should probably be using a proper database and stop playing around.

> Everyone needs security, and privacy

I'm so tired of this, no I don't, at least not as much as so many people think I need. No, I don't care if my Netflix password is easily crackable, and no I don't care if the US government reads my Skype chats!

Why am I not allowed to make that choice, to use Skype and be okay with the convenience tradeoff? I agree that I should have the choice, but if I do choose to use something insecure with full knowledge of it's insecurity, can't I be free to do that?
> hoodie-wearing, ping-pong-playing frat-bro, drink every day at 4pm culture.

A lot of people, including myself, would be glad to be excluded from such a place. I don't wear hoodies, play ping pong, act like a bro, or drink every day, and I especially don't come to work to do those things.

It's nice when an office has beer taps and ping pong tables, but those things don't bring me in to the office every day. Good coworkers and a good environment for working is what makes me want to go into the office.

> It wasn't really fighting words. Yiannopoulos is smart and may have had some legal advice on top of that, so he never does anything that crosses the (legal) line.

Fighting words are not illegal (unless specifically prohibited by statute), they are just outside the Constitutional protection against regulation. So, you could engage in fighting words without crossing any legal line.

But, even if it is protected speech, freedom of speech means that private parties (like Twitter) are generally free to choose not to relay your speech, too.

That was my experience too. I eventually traded for a good electric razor, and I'm considering a straight razor. But DSC's blades just weren't good enough to keep me as a customer - Gillette still has the market cornered for disposables that work for me.
I agree with you. When I say services, I'm actually talking about the consulting work that accompanies enterprise software sales, where you end up acting as an outsourced engineering team for your clients.
Not a good idea. Imagine that you invoke some program A that in turn invokes a coreutils program B. Imagine that A has been written before today (in other words, it is not aware of the STDOUT_JSON technique). Since A and B inherit the STDOUT_JSON environment variable, A will receive JSON. But it is not expecting this, so it will probably crash.
If older people make voting decisions based upon a decreased impact in long-term consequences, how does that square with the statistically provable riskier behavior engaged in by younger people? If anything, I find that older people care more about the long term because they tend to think in terms of impacts on their progeny. It's just as likely that older people have decades of experience from when the UK was not a member of the EU and have relevant experience that tells them that the UK will be just fine without the EU. There are dozens of ways to spin it and show that older people might have a better perspective on a given issue.

But this is exactly the kind of cherry-picking arguing that healthy societies shouldn't indulge in. Women have the basic human right of being able to vote. As do old people. We respect everyone's right to vote despite the fact that people tend to vote in their self-interests and aren't always that logical in doing so.

Maybe we should've weighted votes by projected life expectancy...

Is that a joke? I'm hoping that's a joke.
I'm not sure Microsoft gives an official name for "\\?\".

The closest I can find is "To specify an extended-length path, use the "\\?\" prefix." (from https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa3...).

So maybe it is the "extended-length path prefix".
I don't think we can take this much further without knowing what's actually in the regulations, but I imagine they consist more of "officer's dash cam will be run 24/7 and backed up in triplicate", "officer will learn proper gun handling techniques X, Y, & Z", etc rather than "don't shoot people", "don't shoot handcuffed people", "don't shoot clowns", "don't shoot children".

Or, in the fraud case, "books will be audited at frequency X", "Y behavior makes it too easy to hide fraud and is not allowed". Rather than "fraud is illegal on Monday", "fraud is also illegal on Tuesday", "fraud is even illegal on holidays"...

Of course we can never achieve 100% with more regulation, but we make it more of a priority to make abuse harder to get away with than elsewhere, presumably increasing overhead in exchange for lowering abuse (yes, this is probably not a strictly linear curve)

The only power other people have over you is the ability to alter your thoughts. Thoughts, however, can be ignored. Some thoughts are just harder to ignore than others, but practice makes perfect. So while it is possible for other people to instill a thought in your mind of who you supposedly are, when you are aware of this thought, you have the choice of whether or not you want to believe it. Caveat: the pleasant feelings associated with identifying with a positive thought also disappear.
Probably. If you care enough, and have the facilities, you can take a slo-mo video of yourself taking an abrupt and sharp turn. You will find that counter-intuitively, your bars first turn the opposite direction. In any experienced cyclist, this just becomes an innate instinct.
Well, yeah, but lighening up on the boilerplate and shortening your import path a bit never hurt anybody. 50 copy-pasted lines don't make your app more flexable.

To save everyone else the click: I had heard the 13% figure before, but it was for favorable demographics (like younger people or Bernie supporters), so I was expecting the link to contradict you.

But no, the 13% was one poll's result for Johnson's general support, not simply a favorable demographic for him.

He's expressed a lot of contradictory statements, though. His recent rhetoric has been very gung ho about smashing ISIS and the like (to be fair, every candidate, even Sanders, following the Orlando attacks, has said the same). He's talked about killing the families of terrorists and bringing back torture methods worse than waterboarding. He might not be as canny or experienced as Clinton is at wielding this nation's military-intelligence systems to wage war with, but that doesn't mean he won't try, at some point. Trump just doesn't come across as a principled peace candidate.

Not to mention, there seems to be a tendency for third party, or dark horse candidates, to run on non-interventionism. Bernie Sanders, Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, Ross Perot, George Wallace, even Charles Lindbergh- I think when one doesn't have previous political commitments to defense contractors and other entrenched pro-interventionist interests, there's no need to suck up on them. Instead, it becomes natural to run on a populist, America first, foreign policy deemphasized campaign to appeal to the common people.

Trump is no longer dark horse, he's no longer fringe. He no longer needs to commit to non-interventionism. If anything, he is currently trying to outmaneuver Clinton as the candidate who can bring terrorism to heel.

That's why Peter Thiel not only speaks intelligently but also takes action. While I have serious misgivings about the move, I stand in awe of the courage he has. I suspect it comes from the same reservoir he drew from to invest in SpaceX over a decade ago when it looked insane to people, or to start Paypal. I don't always agree with the man, but I have tremendous respect for both his genius and his courage.
If you can create "value" by creating a market, what happens to that "value" when that market is destroyed?

When trepanation went out of style, it destroyed the market for skull-drills, and destroyed the market for hole-in-skill-drilling service providers. While you can argue that there was value to the consumer in not having a hold drilled in their head, it was still a net loss to any shareholders in companies that provided trepanation products and services.
Similar story here - Home is in eastern NC, terrible allergy area, tons of pine trees and moisture) - but mostly places I visit I feel better, and then feel substantially worse when I return home.
They were not free before in any meaningful sense, because they lacked agency in every decision about their lives. Poverty trapped them in the same place, in the same occupation, for their entire lives.

Despite what you see as the drawbacks of modern life, the people who have moved to the cities are far, far better off, and freer, than before.

"Practically nobody is conscious of the fact that they must steer briefly to the left ion order to make a
right-hand turn. But this is not so strange, because the swerve is very small (approximately 3 degrees)
and happens very quickly – 0.5 seconds. The wet tire tracks from cycling experiments reveal that we all
do this. Apparently we learn this unconsciously when we learn to ride a bike."
> Censorship by public or private entities is dangerous because it destroys the open marketplace of ideas.

On the contrary, private censorship is essential to the marketplace of ideas, since it is exactly private parties choosing how they will participate in that marketplace.

(Where a "private" entity -- or a group of them coordinating formally or informally -- has a, de facto or de jure, protected monopoly on communication in a market, then that entity or entities censoring raises much the same issues as government censorship, but private censorship in general is central to, rather than destructive of, the open marketplace of ideas.)

It's "incredibly simple to use" only when the asynchronous use case you describe is desirable.

Consider this very basic use case: my mom and I want to be always able to call/interrupt each other.

- Skype fits the bill: I just double-click her name in the contact list. She hears the ringing, and answers.

- WebRTC-based services do not: I have to generate a link, email it, and hope she sees the email (she won't) then join asynchronously.

Put dryly, basic WebRTC-based services like Hello lack the notions of a contact and a presence mechanism. That's a deal-breaker for my use case.

EDIT: I see you mention "services surrounding video calls, for example a contact list". Agreed, but to me it's more than an additional service, it's a core feature.

My skin and facial hair suck. The only razors I can shave with comfortably are Gillette Fusions. I know that they're incredibly overpriced, but the big package from Costco lasts me a year. I still get some mild irritation occasionally (even on the first shave with a fresh cartridge). I'm considering some form of permanent removal for my facial hair because it looks terrible and I will never grow it out under any circumstances.
Being included in the debates is not winning. I consider myself to be mostly a Libertarian, but I have no illusions. Short of some beyond comprehension post-singularity-ish event, no Libertarian will ever win the Presidency.

Like you said, it's about travelling and finding Pokemon. That's what kids who saw the anime and played the game wanted to be able to do. Pokemon GO delivers on that desire.

I think it also helps that Pokemon GO simplified the experience from Ingress which makes it more accessible to a wider variety of people.

I dunno. I work for a pretty liberal company, that definitely tries to avoid -isms and what not. I've also seen the same ideas from men vs women given far more credibility when presented by a male speaker. I find it somewhat disturbing. That allied with a lot of the scientific evidence of bias (look at the IAT studies, all 12mn of them) leads me to believe that this is still a problem.
But unlike security issues a single failure doesn't compromise 100% of the rest of the system. This is also why analogies between software/security/cryptography/privacy and the tangible world are so awkward.
Another way to look at it is that the razor blades are not valuable in and of themselves, only when they are put in the hands of the consumer and used.

Gillette has not 'created value' when it made a razor blade, only created the potential for value which is then crystallized when a consumer buys the item with the intent to use it.

Similarly, a consumer who buys a razor blade has not created value at the time of transaction, but actually accrues value over time as it is used.

Why not?

I'm not married to my son's mom yet. We just haven't gotten around to it because:

we're not religious

marriage as an institution just doesn't mean much to us outside tax/other legal benefits

proper weddings, then kind you can invite extended family to, are prohibitively expensive

our son is developing just fine without us being married

We'll get around to it eventually, maybe. It's just not a priority right now.
Yes, it's subconscious (and/or you are initiating the turn by leaning into it, which causes the bicycle to countersteer FOR you).

The way I describe it is that the wheels MUST be underneath the force exerted by the center of mass. In straight-line riding, this means your wheels are under you. In a corner, your mass is to the "inside" of the corner, but the centripetal force added to gravity's downward force ends up pushing down to where the wheels are.

So you need to steer a bicycle so that the wheels are always under this center of mass force (I'm sure there's a word for it).

Hence, if you were to turn the wheels in the direction you wanted to turn, you'd fall over, off the bike, to the outside of your intended turn.

Therefore, to initiate a turn, you have to steer the wheels out from under the bike (the "wrong" way) to initiate your mass's 'fall' into the corner. Then you steer the wheels back under you to balance the fall.
>If you are a member of a disadvantaged group
>Maybe imagine what life would be like for one of those people

Who here isn't a member of some disadvantaged group? Being "white" and "male" doesn't mean you're home free. So I don't need to "imagine" being one of "those people"; I am one.
