I should expand my point by saying that all the XHR stuff and Server-Sent Events are simultaneously Javascript APIs exposed in the browser's script context, but also techniques/"protocols" that an HTTP client can implement by adhering to a specific behavior.

For example, any HTTP client can receive server-sent events in the wire-level HTTP sense, like curl [1], which will just print all data being streamed to it until you abort; but it doesn't provide an API equivalent to the onMessage semantics like you get in the browser. To understand the distinction, see this github issue about adding "support" for Server-Side Events for another HTTP client here [2]. If your HTTP client library of choice doesn't provide the semantics you want, you may be able to build them in yourself.

As a former resident of Detroit, I can say that jomamaxx's commentary is quite accurate.

Paying somebody's water bill helps them today, but is not a long-term solution to improving anything tomorrow, where the average resident doesn't even have a high school diploma.

Something as drastic as moving welfare recipients into high-rises and bulldozing the rest of the city may be needed. Then dis-incorporate the city, and build a new one.

Unfortunately the soil is contaminated with heavy metals, so you would have to also scrape the top foot of soil too.
That's properly understood as a variant of getting a certificate of a domain you don't own, for practical purposes. And the point there is still that the "bad guys" shouldn't be able to get a cert that appears to identify them as Google, not that the bad guys can't get a cert. It's two different things. It is not a bug for Let's Encrypt to hand out certs to "bad" people.
I grew up on a farm, so I had some involvement my whole life. The first year of my own business, I rented everything, and have slowly started growing from there.

Having people to give advice has been huge. If I were to do it again, I would want ensure I have that in place beforehand, be it family members or otherwise. The developer part of me is so used to being able to find all the answers online, but a lot of the farming knowledge is simply passed through the generations.

I always wonder about the people that control the social media accounts. I couldn't toe the company line and color a restriction as some kind of benefit, and I kind of wonder how they deal with the cognitive dissonance.

It's a weird culture, where an "update" is a universally, unquestionably good thing. To me, it always means "trouble", and often (but not always) means a useful enhancement that might balance out the inconvenience imposed by the change. But the process of enhancement shouldn't ever interfere with basic use of the device. Forced updates make me want to abandon the product.
It's disturbing for obvious reasons. You're right . . . it is their site.
why are you suddenly using facts when your initial position used total guesses ?
HDMI does not mandate HDCP. You can use it as just DVI with audio if you want. That's the default mode for all PCs and the Xbox consoles, which only switch to HDCP mode if you try to play DRM-protected content like Blurays.

PS3 is shitty and runs in HDCP mode all the time, but that's Sony for you.

As far as I'm aware even on HDCP-compliant hardware none of the Linux drivers can even use it if they wanted to.
That's why the only answer you ever give to ANY LEO is, "I don't speak to law enforcement without my attorney present." Not a routine traffic stop of course, unless you like being hassled.
This is a straw man argument like the article.

My last point is that the Catholic church was not able to change any texts (or creeds or customs) in the east. It just ignored them.

Somehow you read those words and somehow divined that somewhere between the lines I said that the Catholic church had a major influence on churches in the east. Then you say how misguided this view is.

Where did I say this? I said the Catholic church did not change eastern texts and ignored the east. You rearrange this to me saying the Catholic church had a major influence over the east, which is contrary to what I said. Then you say how misguided this view which you attribute to me, but which I said nowhere, is.
One could draw a difference between lying about concrete facts, as Libby did, and merely proclaiming innocence in general. Though in some cases they may be difficult to distinguish.

The benchmarks are from The Computer Language Benchmarks Game. I used to think this was a good way to compare programming language performance. But if you look into the results in detail, it's really not that simple.

If you look at rust vs C, you'll see many cases where rust is on par with C, or beats C.

When you start comparing WHY some rust version of a program is twice as slow as the C version, usually what you'll find is that someone has not spent the same amount of effort optimizing that program. Or in some cases, you'll see the C program using SIMD instructions, which you could do in rust, but it isn't stabilized yet.

What you won't find, is some intrinsic reason that the safety of rust is causing it to be slower than C. To just look at the benchmark totals and make that assumption would be wrong, and that's exactly what the author did.

Well, this is what melatonin does and its OTC. My horrible insomnia was cured not by Ambien, but by .5mg of Walgreen's melatonin and even now I rarely take it.

Its also probably time we admitted human beings can't fit into lifestyles where they're bombareded with blue light, stress, etc right before bedtime. The Western lifestyle is fairly anti-traditional and old fashioned things like prayer/meditation/whatever before bed and calm family time of putting the children to bed or reading to them has been replaced with ipad usage/internet tomfoolery, or tv watching.

I doubt there will ever be a pill to fix this. If you're serious about fixing insomnia then you need to do the legwork of proper lifestyle change. Personally, the benefits I get from running flux on the desktop as well as daily meditation are incredible. Pharmacological solutions shouldn't be our first instinct.
You say you don't think you are superior but you show the opposite. There is no moral "flexibility". You still imply that there is a moral code set in stone and those people deviated from it.

>Some people make the personal choice to "evolve" above the dog-eat-dog-world mentality, for example. As another example, while some people stab their prey with their forks, others choose to be vegan.

One might argue that those people simply don't want to face the reality so they pretend.

You and your sister got tricked, but your sister's friend is definitely stupid for believing magic pills will make her fit. Your grandmother can be either way, but if you did a good job explaining to her why a financial manager isn't a good proposition for somebody who is not a multi-millionaire, she is most probably stupid too. And I don't mean that they are abnormal. Plenty of people are stupid. Most even, one might say.

You can choose to pretend, just like the vegans, if that gives you solace.
Amazon's long-term play in this area seems to get clearer everyday. It will build services to retail what it has done for compute. They are building an operating system for a retail company. They provide the IT, management services, logistic services, marketing and advertising services. Eventually if 3D printing catches on, you can even get your stuff manufactured and sold using Amazon's services.

This point is oddly weak in comparison to the others.

> Amazon has one of the most confusing IAM. While it is nice to set up a role to only allows usage for a particular resource from a specific device and times of day, you end up spending most of your time debugging policies.

Haven't used GCP, but I didn't mind IAM. Missed it when I waas trying to figure out Azure stuff.

> A list of votes per user per page would also work. ~90% of the time that list would be empty,

Not really. People tend to vote on one or two things on a page. So you'll have a long list of people who voted on one or two of the 1000+ items, and now you've had to do an extra lookup.

It's a lot faster to just go straight for the votes and take advantage of the bloom filter.
"Moreover, people you invite to projects must be Gmail or Google App users" - I'm trying to figure out why walled garden lock-in is being treated as a feature.

It sounds like a lot of his reason for switching is simplicity. From this article, it sounds like AWS has a lot more options and control, and GAE just does what it wants or thinks is best. I suppose to some, the latter may be appealing, but at least the author is honest with a "your mileage may vary". Willing to bet this simplicity costs a lot of options other companies may wish to use.
I wasn't trying to justify piracy or suggest that people should be able to get things for free [1]. Rather that while piracy is an unfortunate reality of doing business selling digital goods, it probably doesn't have nearly as much impact on the bottom line as some might believe.

This is why companies like Valve practically ignore piracy altogether and instead focus on delivering as much value as possible to actual paying customers at prices they're willing to accept (focusing on exactly what you said smart businesses should). Contrast that to those companies that, blinded by the sheer number of people pirating their products, waste money and time in a futile effort to combat piracy by placing draconian DRM schemes on their products, that end up resulting in the pirated versions offering a superior user experience when all is said and done. A sweet irony if I ever saw one.

[1] I used to be a heavy pirate myself when I was in high school, but these days I regularly pay for content that's priced fairly and delivered in a way that's not user-hostile, and simply treat everything else as if it never existed in the first place.
How do you scrape the data in real time? Do government agencies have API or do you guys use something like scrapy to scrape their websites?
Most places outside of The Usual Tech Hubs are one-horse towns when it comes to tech employment, major opportunity risk.

I've heard that a lack of other major employers competing for the same employees is a significant consideration for large companies looking to change cities.

They can hire people from wherever and pay relocation, then not worry about them jumping ship over mildly lousy raises.

(Source: recruiters in town a while ago for a bank setting up a new IT office half way across the state; about half is me reading between the lines.)
>The argument that people pirate because the paid options are shit, and if they were as convenient as torrents people would just pay for them, is rendered moot with the Steam counterexample.

Steam is usually used as the example of how better distribution results in less pirating...but not all games are available through Steam or "as easily" obtained as through Steam.

Netflix is also a good example. Most people I knew who used PTP were:

1) In regions Netflix doesn't support or doesn't "properly" support (see: UK above)

2) Watching movies that weren't even available through Netflix.

With the death of "game demos" I pirate most of my games. I also purchase most of those games. If game demos were such a thing - the games I did not purchase were games I'd never have bought. Which is very consistent with the "typical pirate argument of trying to make themselves feel righteous".

There are (of course) people who will download for free because they can but the pirates who actually talk about pirating seem to always have other, "reasonable" motives. Bypassing DRM limitations, removing ads, to demo something/see if it is worth paying for, or because pirating is the only way to even obtain the material. They don't even have the option of paying for it if they wanted to.

How could pirating hurt sales if the person pirating can't even purchase the damn thing?
Saw this article the other day, it didn't get upvoted much - I'm not sure why it's getting to the frontpage now, it really isn't saying anything at all. I agree with the sentiment though.

I haven't been dealing with AWS very long but I keep hitting limitations. Stupid limitations.

Sometimes they're a big deal (IPv6 is not available natively. WTF, doesn't AWS run half the web?). Sometimes they're not a big deal, but still annoying (DNSSEC isn't supported by Route53). Sometimes, they're unbelievable (AWS Lambda is Python 2.7 only, no Python 3, in 2016).

Sometimes it's probably something that would be fixed with a single line of code (Ed25519 is not supported as a keypair). Sometimes, the product itself just sucks (Cloudformation), requires a Ph.D (IAM) or has ridiculous limitations (certificate manager). And sometimes, it's just the aws cli that, in between its million subcommands available, cannot do basic things like creating S3 redirect rules or update ACM certs.

But all the time, it's the web UI that sucks the most - I have to use a separate browser for cloudwatch logs and S3 because the native UI is just that bad. And god forbid you enable 2FA, you'll have to get your phone out twice a day.

These are all the limitations I hit in a few months using AWS. I wonder how many more I'll hit within the next year. Is Google actually any better? Seems to me it's just different kinds of limitations.

See, my parents did this thing where they'd tell me how smart I am all the time, then whenever there would be an argument or a disagreement "Oh, you're just SO smart and we're all SO stupid".

I'm already one of those people with a generally dry/sarcastic sense of humor (think Ruxin from The League, "I can't even tell when you're joking" kinda thing), so I have a hard time telling when I'm actually being an asshole or condescending or not, because while I seriously try to watch myself I still occasionally get the feeling that I came off the wrong way or, well, condescendingly. "You just think you're sooooo smart..."
Persona match... now that is an interesting feature!
I'll suggest a minority position: If you feel the need to keep up at the bleeding edge of your field, your work is probably replaceable, i.e., if you didn't do it then someone else would do it a year later.

Instead, read more review papers and seminal papers in your field.
Could it also be because they looked at your profile?
I was briefly involved with this back when the project started --- I quit after having one run-in too many with the project lead, who was, um, difficult --- and the Allwinner kernel was best described as a ghastly mess.

It had, e.g., a big chunk of code bolted on that loaded a binary data file at boot time and configured the various peripherals. My suspicion is that that was the init code from an entirely different operating system completely that they'd just duct-taped onto the Linux kernel. Unwiring that was a problem.

The chip itself is pretty nice from the hackability perspective. It has a boot rom, like the processor in the Raspberry Pi, and is capable of loading the kernel from flash or an SD card, so you can build unbrickable hardware with it. (For years I ran my personal website off an A20-based TV set-top-box nailed to a plank.)

It's not entirely true about running entirely free code. Apart from the boot ROM, which I suspect you can change if you pay Allwinner enough money, it's got a Mali 400 GPU. There's some of an open source driver here: http://limadriver.org/ ...but I don't know how usable it is. If you want full acceleration I believe you need a blob.

It's still a four-year-old semi-obsolescent SoC, of course. Perfectly adequate for low-end work but compilation on it is for masochists. (I should know; I did.)

so triggering. but mainly my fear in using GCP is this: Google is a product psycho, this is not their core business, I get the feeling that anything about GCP could change or disappear at any time for any reason and I as the customer is left to react to these changes.
If you're guilty or for some reason don't want to divulge what you know (and there are legitimate reasons for that), sure.

But most of us, the overwhelming majority of the time, want to see law enforcement succeed and have nothing to conceal. If there's a robbery next door, I'm going to very happily tell the cops absolutely everything I saw and heard.

Edit: I'm surprised that this post is unpopular. Do you really want to live in a world where people don't help law enforcement find violent criminals?

Oh definitely. At the most local level, we elected a state rep in his 20's. Because he was motivated enough to run and challenge a long term incumbent, and some younger folks got out and voted for him. He's done a really good job and is running for state senate now. I'm not saying it's always great to vote out the long term incumbent, but giving enough of a shit to get informed, decide, and go to the polls is huge. Definitely vote, and get informed as best you can.
