"Are there any other major browsers taking a similar approach to Safari in terms of native WebDriver support?"

Let me tell you about the "world domination plan" for the Selenium project. In the beginning of the project, no browser had a good automation story. It was a constant battle to catch-up and fix things every time a new browser version came out. With Selenium 2, in addition to merging in WebDriver, the grand strategy was to move the maintenance of each browser driver codebase to the browser vendors themselves. Opera, Mozilla, and Google quickly jumped on board with the idea. To further this strategy, we moved Selenium's IP to a neutral 3rd party (Software Freedom Conservancy), and worked towards a W3C browser automation spec that looks suspiciously identical to the WebDriver API. Now with Microsoft and Apple also on-board, we can all raise our glasses and yell "Cheers!"

Of course, there's no rest for the weary. The battleground for good test automation tooling has now shifted from desktop to mobile (and possibly TVs, cars, watches, IoT, etc.)

If we had a sound theory of what morality is and where it comes from, then we could judge the truth of of your first sentence.

As it is, I will suspend judgment on the moral status of the little bloodsuckers.
This is character assassination and has no place here.

Chomsky is actually an extremely pleasant and kind person, not (detectably) autistic, and has written extensively on the topic of organizing societies where people treat each other well -- see his countless works on Anarchism and Libertarian Socialism, extraordinarily well-researched critiques of foreign and domestic policy, and even-handed application of the principle of universality in human affairs.

It's not the same thing.

Imagine being told there's loads of bugs in your system and it's constantly breaking, even though no-one can show you a single one of these bugs and you've not got a single user complaint.

That's dark matter.

It's obviously bullshit, but it's the 'simplest' explanation.
A single country of origin is not allowed to use up more than 7% of the total green card quota. Thus, very populous countries with lots of qualified potential immigrants, and strong incentives to immigrate (e.g. significant quality-of-life difference), are at a disadvantage.

Have you seen DevLab? https://github.com/TechnologyAdvice/DevLab

Built it to get around some issues we had with Docker-Compose.
Had to write my own in Scala/Akka (I use FIX protocol where possible). However, opensourcing these things is always educational.
We often seem to assume we know "everything", and we often find out there is more to learn. It would be an interesting universe if we found dark matter to be ancient civilisations. Using up much of the mass and energy (even the infrared).
Since we are yet to see the first Angular2 release (almost there, but not yet); most Angular2 third-party resources may not provide the most up to date information, so the best place to learn Angular right now is really the official Angular documentation i.e. https://angular.io/ , because it is updated quite often.

1. If you are looking for a book to learn in a sequential way then ng-book is a good option. ng-book is updated regularly however it is not free.
https://www.ng-book.com/2/#features

2. New blog posts are also a great way to learn about certain Angular topics. Examples:

2(a): http://blog.thoughtram.io/categories/angular-2/

2(b): http://angularjs.blogspot.com/ (Has both Angular 1.x and 2.x articles, written by Angular core developers)

3. Learning by observing:

3(a): material2 is a library, being developed by the Angular team itself, that is based on Angular2 and is frequently updated to use the latest Angular2 version (currently RC5). I refer to the material2 source code to learn the best way to write my own Angular2 app and custom components: https://github.com/angular/material2/tree/master/src/lib

Maybe some games. But at the moment most popular games are actually investing development resources into integrating twitch support right into the game to make it even easier to stream. The huge network effects you get from having a popular game on twitch seem to outweigh the 'costs' of people streaming it without paying the publisher.
Could you speak a bit more to the idea of gravitational lensing as a proxy to show no regular matter but rather dark matter. If dark matter accounts for the missing 'mass' holding galaxies together, wouldn't you expect it to cause lensing of light?
That's going to be interesting litigation. There's a legal analysis under UK law here.[1] It's not too helpful. WIPO suggests that legislation may be desirable to give game developers control over videos of games.[2] Their country-by-country analysis is all over the place.

It's a tough call. Arguably, the player is the performance, against the game as a backdrop. That could be argued as a transformative use. If you make a video of someone playing golf on a Robert Trent Jones golf course, Robert Trent Jones (or his estate) doesn't get royalties. If you make videos of people playing sports with sports gear with prominent logos, that doesn't mean the sports gear company has a copyright interest. You don't have to pay royalties to car companies when their cars appear in a video.

Cut scenes may be an issue, since the player isn't controlling them.

I've been using mailbox for about two years and am now switching to fastmail.
The UI is vastly better and works great on mobile. It's also the base for the mobile app which mailbox doesn't have (well, the OX one).
And that's the other thing. Having a dedicated app with search integrated and push notifications on iOS is awesome.
This is too dumbed down, imo.

Also, the part where it explains why memory is zero-addressed is so wrong, it rustled my jimmies.
Not OP, but the current sociopolitical environment puts strong proscriptions on believing that cultural or ethnic homogeneity can be beneficial.
But maybe. Vanguard has 6%, Blackrock and Fidelity at 5% each, some of the other investment firms also offer index. I'll peg that all up, 45-50% of the investments are in some kind of index fund.

Lots of money and market push there as indexes.

Bogle said that there could be issues at the 90% level, so we are still pretty far away.

My issue is funds that are Index 500 or DJI average are set by someone else. Hence the huge number of funds that own Apple and can push on them. When they rebalances those indexes, it can be a traumatic event.

On the other hand, index funds are a way of playing par golf with your money every day.
You can get a whole world index. MSCI offers an ETF like this (https://www.ishares.com/us/products/239600/ishares-msci-acwi...).

Facebook Is Giving Away the Software It Uses to Understand Objects in Photos
I highly recommend most people, at least when they are young, don't put all their eggs into market cap weighted total market funds by getting at least some direct exposure to mid and small-caps. You can potentially leave a lot of growth on the table by being too heavily weighted towards the more conservative big boys(and conversely, lose a lot by not being so weighted towards them, but that's why you do it when you are young).
Apple is 136k, Facebook above 140k, Google 127k, Microsoft is above 120k..

so, these companies and many others which are paying in above ranges aren't violators.
It heavily depends on the game. There are lots of single-player games where the story is much better than the actual game mechanics. Or where watching somebody figure out all the puzzles is more fun than doing it yourself. Here, streamers and let's-players likely cause a decrease in game sales. In simulation and competitive games on the other hand streamers should usually cause more sales then they prevent.

As one less recent example, watching Half Life 2 with funny commentary is great, but I have no desire to ever play the game myself.
At least some are. I myself watched a playthrough of "Last of Us" and greatly enjoyed it. But because the game is so linear and story-driven, and the gameplay itself doesn't look particularly remarkable, I'll likely never pick up the game, even though considerable resources were obviously expended for voice acting and writing and direction.
I do write in Haskell where it is appropriate (for fun, or if I want to prototype some complex domain model). Otherwise, I am quite happy with Scala. :)
Kubernetes isn't particularly hard to host.

Interesting reading, thanks. There is always somebody with another clever trick up their sleeve.
Agreed. I think part of the reason this is true is because there are so few models for the other paths.

Big numbers are good stories. Raising $Xm is a much more interesting story to tell than 20% YoY growth to a business that has a natural revenue ceiling of e.g. $20m / year. So the media tells those stories and they become the dominant model.

Effectively Managing a Technical Debt Backlog
You can be immensely wealthy if you beat it consistently. Almost no professionals can. Warren Buffet is winning his $1m charity bet that the S&P beats pro hedge funds over a decade:

http://www.cnbc.com/2016/02/16/warren-buffett-slips-but-stil...

> His horse in the race, the Vanguard 500 Index Fund Admiral Shares, which tracks the benchmark S&P 500 index, is up 65.7 percent. That's well ahead of the 21.9 percent average gain for the unnamed five funds of hedge funds chosen by Protege Partners, a New York City money management firm.

So not just an average of hedge funds, but ones specifically selected to out perform by a multi-billion dollar management firm.
One thing's for sure, it caught my attention. Humungo text that made me chuckle. Then, I clicked on the text, and it was the example. Pretty clever.

> The fact that his political ideas are barely backed up with data speaks for itself.

This is an objectively ridiculous assertion. His works are extensively cited with primary sources. He regularly has hundreds of footnotes per book. Manufacturing Consent and Necessary Illusions are just two examples of a scientific, ideology-free approach to political analysis. There he compares and contrasts how the U.S. media covers similar international events -- by state friends vs. foes -- and it is quite damning.
Yeah but the US does incarcerate at a much higher rate and for much longer than comparably developed countries, prison conditions are also much worse.
Using Data to Better Understand Climate Change
I think the plasma region has a different kinematic viscosity than the un-ionized region. This should change the Reynolds number (ratio of inertial to viscous forces), and that should profoundly affect things like flow separation, turbulence onset - lots of things that matter in flow over airfoils.

There's been work on kinematic viscosity changes due to plasma effects in plasma torches, but I can't provide links right now.

It will be interesting to see how this holds up in real flight conditions: icing, bug splat debris on electrodes, low pressure at high altitudes, and how much electrical power is needed to sustain the benefits. Cool work.
Online hiring platform Hired released a report on Aug. 25 analyzing 31,146 interview requests from 1,848 companies made through Hired’s platform during the first half of 2016.

These were interview requests, not confirmed salary offers. Many of them quite mindlessly and robotically initiated by internal recruiters -- eager to stuff as many "inbound leads" as they can into their funnel. More specifically for intake "chats" with the recruiter -- not even (at that point) for a tech screen or an actual in-person interview.

It's safe to say that most of these discussions didn't get veyy far, and that the vast majority of people contacted weren't "offered" anything.
welp, scrapers rejoice
I don't this story will last long on hn.

It is very funny though.

OK sure , but the entire point of the MVC concept is how to build a powerful UI for your app. Your proposal solves a different problem.

In terms of using equity to exercise voting rights, you complete give up those rights when you buy into an index fund. So to a large extent, the voting policies of Vanguard and other index fund managers can matter a lot, especially if they are easily persuaded by activist investors.

> As San Francisco becomes more like Manhattan, would people want to stay?

i don't know if the existing residents will want to stay, but i think many more people overall would want to live in a manhattan of the west coast, as evidenced by the manhattan of the east coast which people keep moving to.
Smalltalk doesn't do that and if it does, it's because the runtime is dumb. For example, a Smalltalk which saves and restores threads in an image, can only do that, because it does not use native threads. Various Lisp systems are using native threads. If a Smalltalk image starts, formerly open files may be opened again. If the files is not there, then nothing happens. Same for network connections.

I would be very irritated if my Lisp Machine on start would reopen all network connections... But it has a controlled restart process, where I tell Lisp what to restart on a reboot. Actually a Lisp Machine has a list in memory, where the restart tasks are kept. If the image is restarted, one of the tasks it does is to go through this list and execute the various restart tasks...
just teach them safety, and figure out when you can trust them to keep safe.

Perhaps, but how much of that use is driven by use as an iPod (in the original sense -- a music player for iTunes content) to people already invested in the Apple ecosystem? I'd guess its not insignificant (most of the people I encounter who still use iPod touches use them primarily in that role, specifically so that they have something that can be used that way, often plugged into a sound system) while still having their phone available as a phone. But then, most of them are also ballroom dance instructors...)

And there are statistics tests one can use to determine if one's performance meets those statistical parameters to be random. Many funds and managers beat it over the long term, such as Warren Buffet, but the vast majority indeed do not.

I was thinking in general more about ornamentation and flair used in architecture and industrial design, not just for the restaurants.

But even in the context of some of those chains. I noticed those places which explicitly do the cluttered junk old-time whimsy are fine. Cracker Barrel for example, has been doing great over the years. Its stock in the last 10 years went from $30 to $160. The interesting thing about it, it doesn't aspire to be cool in a fancy way. TGI Friday wants to be a bit classy-cool. But it can't keep up with the times. Ruby Tuesday same thing. For example, in 10 years its stock went from $30 to $6.
In rather abstract evolution mechanics, this isn't much different from requiring male and female counterparts to procreate.
All that happens here is that smaller entities are a better fit for the environment, while only a combination of them stores the full information required for another entity to be created. In simulations this has been seen quite often.
For some reason, I find it gratifying that this operation has been in business (more or less) for 32 years.

I can feel a strong sense of pride in the application he's built and still seeing it out there. Whatever few orders he gets is essentially keeping the site running and providing online support to those few still using his wares.

Each order gets you copies for Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, OS/2 and DOS versions. Must be fun to have a long-standing project that you can go to that keeps you in touch with both newer and older OSes too.

Project Panama: Interconnecting JVM and Native Code
I think we're interpreting op differently. No, not all the energy added to a heavier than air aircraft (thrust) in straight-n-level flight* is used to counteract drag. Yes, where there is lift, there is induced drag. But the kinetic energy being added to maintain velocity is also being used for lift.

Imagine if the airfoil on an aeroplane were replaced with a symmetrical airfoil mounted with no angle of incidence. Thrust could be reduced because there's less drag from no lift. No lift, no induced drag, only parasitic drag, and the plane starts to lose altitude. Would you agree that not all the energy added to straight and level flight goes towards counteracting drag?

*where a' and v' are zero, and where for argument's sake, the thrust vector is perfectly horizontal

edit: by a' I mean change in vertical airspeed, by v' i mean change in true airspeed.
It's not just children's safety. Even as crime rates and violence rates have decreased monotonically since at least the 1980s, people grow more and more clamorous about "safety" from essentially negligible causes of death like terrorism or assault rifles. We've spent billions of dollars on the TSA, which by all indicators doesn't even do much to prevent (the negligible amount of) terrorist activity. Similarly, in 2015, only 248 people were killed with rifles (no idea which percentage of those were homicides, and which percentage of those were assault rifles). Yet how much legislative time was wasted arguing about trying to ban them?

"Safety" has become somewhat of a "semantic stopsign" in political discourse.

The Freelancer and the NDA: A One-Act Play
I think you're leaving out an important third category of "personality" streamers. People that get views because they are entertaining, rather than because they're necessarily that good at the games they're playing.

I don't know what proportion of the whole each of the three makes up, but I would assume that the third category at least the very least merits a mention.
Depends on the game. Many games are only remarkable for their combination of story and aesthetics, with the minute-to-minute play being fairly mundane. In that case I can see a bunch of people just watching a stream and not bothering to play the game themselves.

How many of them would have been so pushed as to play the game for themselves anyway... an open question.

There's been some pretty specific observations of dark matter like galaxies which have been shown to have varying proportions of DM, there have been measurements where scientists have actually localised the dark matter, i.e. mapped where it should be concentrated based on the perturbation of nearby stars.
OOP hate is common these days, but I always has been an OOP enthusiast. I used to write in Smalltalk, I implemented a few metaobject protocols of my own, and I think OOP had deserves its success (unfortunately, C++/Java is not really OOP... However, some principles still apply).

So, when a language appeared to combine the best ideas from FP and OOP, I happily embraced it. And I want it to stay this way.
That's not quite right. A better analogy would be:

"Imagine being told there's loads of bugs in your system and it's constantly breaking, and even though no-one can show you a single one of these bugs, tons of users are complaining."

That would fit the situation better: There's only one kind of indication that these things exist.
This. Make is highly underrated. It's old so it's probably clunky, has a weird syntax and dog slow. Well no. So many examples of people reinventing the wheel, it's just sad.
