Many popular stories in medium.com get reposted many many many times. I think I counted like 20 reposts once. The problem is that medium.com adds some tracking crap to the URL that confuses the deduplicator. (I hope the mod can fix this someday.) The latest non political were "Fuck You Startup World" and "I Peeked into My Node_Modules Directory and You Won’t Believe What Happened Next". (I hope that someone can post the total count of resubmissions of these post.) When it's not political, there are usually not so many complains because it's clear that it's a fault in the deduplicator. When the story is political then it looks like censorship.

Also, most political stories are flagged, this is even considered in the guidelines. There are elections in many countries per year and there are good, bad and worse candidates in each one. If tomorrow were an lection between Putin and someone else, do you think that it would on-topic? What about an election in Argentina? (Next year we have a midterm election and some people really hate the current president, and some people really hate the previous president, and some people hate both.) When the post is about a country you don't care, then you don't care and it looks like something to maintain the signal to noise ratio and filter the off-topic stories. When the post is about a country you care it looks like censorship.

Perhaps I was not clear. While memory cost about the same in all settings, processing power does not. Whatever part of an attack can be ASICified will be cheaper than it would have been if executed on stock hardware.

Time memory tradeoffs, even if they don't reduce the time-area product, do increase the amount of silicon that can be ASICified. The additional computations might very well cost less than the equivalent memory lookups.

I'd like to close the gap between stock hardware and ASIC. This paper's abstract suggest that we cannot. That's a bummer.

> Apple Car was and is a fundamentally bad idea.

Given that the range of possible ideas you're talking about extends from better software to power autonomous cars, through to an entirely autonomous electric car which Apple manufactures in its entirety, and also incorporates potential partnership with another brand such as BMW, it seems hard to believe that someone could dismiss Apple car as "a fundamentally bad idea".

> Limited/no cross-sale synergies with other products.

CarPlay is a fairly good example of this not being true. And if cars become fully autonomous, there's unending cross-sale opportunity for Apple (since people will be doing in cars what they do with Apple products outside of cars).

> Massive up-front costs

Apple has not incurred, as far as any of us know, any costs related to manufacturing, dealer, or maintenance networks.

> Strong existing competition

Strong by what measure? AI? UX for in-car systems? Industrial design?

> No clear USP ("made by Apple" is not a USP)

It is when for many people that's a byword for simplicity, smart features, and elegant design. In any event, it's hilarious that someone's arguing that a car the company has never acknowledged existing "has no USP".

> The only way to crush the market would be to make a car that flies and to set up the infrastructure to make flying cars usable for domestic and work commuting.

Apple has never sought to crush a market. They seek to have the highest share of profit in a market.

> the absolute best anyone expects from Apple Car is a me-too car that looks a bit nicer and rounder than the rest. And is available in white, black, pink, and gold. And it absolutely has to self-drive, because that's where the competition will be.

Yeah, if you arbitrarily cut out user experience and the integration of hardware and software as a competitive advantage, then Apple's car will just get people from A-B in the same way as any other car.

> Me-too isn't enough to win in that market.

Nobody except you is arguing that the Apple car would be "me-too" and completely devoid of any unique advantages which other car manufacturers would seek to emulate.
I have worked with them in the past.

One of the key things was that they managed to get every company in the tech task force to collaborate through things like shared hash databases; so if someone uploads child pornography to imgur, facebook or tumblr, they can all take advantage of the other's experience.

Then the tools they share with law enforcement allow them for instance to easily search personals posted around the web for dodgy ads, or search content in darknets.

My involvement was around a particular case in which we collaborated with an FBI special agent to try and catch a person who had posted images online abusing a very young child.

Due to the nature of the investigative process, we had to share more with them than they did with us. Not sure if we had a hand in it, but they told us that predator was arrested and the girl is now safe.

I don't see the need for this to cherry pick a few project and push them with the Linux brand. The JS landscape is fragmented for a good reason and I don't see that as problem in fact, rather as a feature. With NPM and YARN we already have a good enough package management system and their platform can help me evaluate if a package is community supported enough. I'm talking about the stats that I can just check: number of stars, contributors and open/closed issue ratios.

Scaling solutions will always look different ... I think the idea here is that you have a one to one relation between the app and the database, so that the session data is not lost when the app restarts. And apps tend to restart often, especially during development. You might also store state history for easier debugging with time-travel.
Possibly because of the old design tenet: Constraints are good. I'm not certain it's entirely for the sake of brevity.
And you'll have to pay for it, I presume, which is another difference.
Which Linux distributions do this? I'd like to read how "most" instances of fork and exec end up with unique networks and file system namespaces.
There's a difference between discontent or frustration and hate & aversion. In buddhist view: hate and aversion will create enormously negative mindstates that will cause suffering to the person acting on this emotion. But the vajrayana schools (mainly tibet) also claim that there is clarity and energy in this emotion, and if it can be detached from ego it can be transformed to a positive "wisdom". I think this view encaptures the sentiment of both people here, anger can be positive, but also very negative.

> For disk encryption, use whatever comes with your system.

I acknowledge this is likely a super-niche problem, but if you want to use an encrypted thumb drive (or external HDD/SDD) to access data from Windows, Mac and Linux machines, there is almost no alternative. Is there any realistic alternative?

And BitLocker, even if you are on Windows is not completely trouble-free - on Windows 7, e.g. to my knowledge only the Ultimate/Enterprise editions support it. Windows 7 Pro does not.

I don't have a ton of experience with the Linux Foundation, but publishing a list of "official" JavaScript libraries to seems like a step in the right direction. One of the largest complaints about the JS ecosystem today is the huge number of choices in libraries available. Maybe this provides a good starting point for a lot of people who feel lost. Or maybe it's just one more library that we all have to understand and make a decision about.

Nah I struggle through similar reasons. I think most people do; it's hard not to when there's practically infinite access to information. For me at least, I find it's a matter of just diving in with a slight "f*ck it" attitude - if I later find out I didn't start with the "best" material, or that something doesn't interest me as much as I thought it would, I try to just cut my losses and move on. Personally, I find that "joyful learning sensation" is more a matter of mental perspective than anything else. For what it's worth :)
But you can still have an opinion, correct? It seems this conversation, whether it is productive or not, is relevant to this community.

If I can't here the other sides arguments here, where will I hear them?
I am not sure if anybody can pick the right library for a company other than the technical leadership, though.
Well, you could use HyperV for VMs instead - I have never done it, but its not that bad apparently

Well yeah but you don't carry around a dumbell, do you? Anger is a waste of energy and very dangerous in most of the cases. It should be avoided at all costs unless you're going into a fight and don't have any other choice.

I wholeheartedly disagree with the OP of this line of commentary. Saying anger is good and one should embrace it is a really bad suggestion.

Anger makes you blind, it fogs your rational thinking and makes you do things you'll probably regret afterwards.

So, avoid it and think rationally.

It's the program counter of the state that was interrupted by the single-step trap that's of interest, and that program counter is generally pushed onto the stack by the trap.

For example, this is how the trace exception on the M68k works - the program counter of the next instruction to be executed can be read off the stack by the exception handler. The 6502 doesn't have built-in software single-stepping but the same effect was sometimes achieved by tying a short timer to the NMI - and when the NMI is asserted, the interrupted program counter is pushed onto the stack.
It creates jobs :)

Fellow 5X user here. Seriously, I can't tell much of a difference between Now and Siri. They're both equally frustrating to use. Siri has the upperhand, imo, because it at least has a physical means of activating it (whoda thunk it...Apple with the physical button). Google Now I can long hold the "O" button, but then I still need to tap the microphone. There's always the hands-free "OK, -Assistant of Choice-", but that has always been incredibly hit and miss for me.
What exactly do you mean by js fragmentation? If that, you have power to pick from hundreds of lib/fw and combine them together, then what you call fragmentation is actual real benefit for me. I like to make decisions myself, but if you like the others to take decisions for you, js is probably not for you. The very good example is redux. Redux was once simple state management lib. Take a look at it now https://github.com/xgrommx/awesome-redux. That is real power of js ecosystem.

Very true. Hopefully this provides a good starting point to get the the discussion going, especially for things where there are multiple options. momentjs is a good example - I don't think there's a better library for dealing with time in JavaScript. But Mocha might be contentious - some people love the Jasmine/Mocha/Jest family, other people prefer the Tap/Tape/Ava lineage. Here's to hoping this makes the discussions easier to have.
Are you joking? Trump is _transparently_ corrupt. The Trump Foundation exists to serve as a tax shield, funneling donor money to Trump and his family personally. C.f. the allegations of corruption toward Clinton and the Clinton Foundation, which are laughably indistinct and incomparable. If corruption is what you care about, then Hillary Clinton is _inarguably_ the superior candidate.
There are two schools of thought. The first is that you should optimise for the platform you're targeting, so a fragmented JS world is a good thing because you optimise for different things depending on where your code is going to run. The second school of thought is that you should optimise for development, and you should have the same language everywhere even if that means slightly less efficient code.

For example, if you write long running services in node then optimising for memory allocation in order to avoid leaks is a good idea. It's less useful for clientside things that generally don't run for nearly as long. Conversely, if you write isomorphic JS that can run in the browser but also needs to run on the server for that first-load advantage, then you'd prefer if things work the same everywhere.

Neither school is 'right' per se. How a language ought to evolve is incredibly subjective.
On the contrary, the fact that we had, and continue to have numerous threads, and thousands of comments means it is very interesting to the community.
A Windows license is nothing on a developer budget selling his work.
