> The research was a retrospective study, which relied on participants to recall their diet habits.

So this data really isn't that useful, then... nor is there any solid proof of the actual cause of the risk increase. It could be sugar/sweeteners themselves, or it could be the cravings that they possibly induce, and so forth.

At the end of the day, did the study really advance any knowledge about these subjects?
Depends on what you want to do.

If you just want to get a web-app up go for Meteor, it's probably the simplest fully integrated solution.
>Self-driving cars that actually work are about three years from commercial deployment.

Anyone who builds a business based on fully autonomous vehicles being available in three years is in for a rude shock. 30 years is probably more like it.
I disagree as soon as you write more than a single nested child/parent component, that requires a different way of thinking (should I use state or props?). And that you can't "just uses react". You kind of have to use redux (or similar) as well as a bunch of other stuff.
Actually, employees don't give a shit about the companies they work at and they should be treated as such. If it's not their own company all they care about at the end of the day are the money they get (the more, the better), the conditions they get and to complain about every single fucking thing. All this while trying to trick you as much as possible by not being efficient or trying to become better at what they are doing, on their own.

So I'd urge owners of companies to hire and fire people quick. There are rarely good people who stay within a company for more than 2 years and who care about what they do. Those people usually become part of it (partners).

The rest are just there temporary, so treat them as such: shitty replacement parts.

The atmosphere? Oh man, so good. I loved the little quotes in the descriptions of new technology. They got darker as the tech got higher up the tree. I still remember the gist of the one for human cloning:

Still gives me shivers.

Photo Tips for Website Design
Thanks for the comments - they're already very useful.

To explain our process:
We have a single designer, and when designs are reviewed it's usually by one of the devs

In the past we've done wireframes (Sketch) and interactive prototypes (InVision)
We were frustrated that:
1. Lots of issues didn't surface until we started coding, when a raft of problems/edgecases would appear.
2. It was too easy to ignore existing UI components/css, so that each design featured new component styles and css.

For approx the last month our designer branches from `master` and hacks on top of that to create designs. He then creates a PR for design-review, alongside a spec with some screenshots in Dropbox Paper.
Some advantages of this:
1. We get visual diffs from Percy, so we can see what's changed easily
2. We get versioning more easily built into designs (via git)

Then just before development we'll break a story down into tasks / subtasks and log those into JIRA for development.
We have trouble with:
1. Letting the designer make changes once the subtasks are created and development has started (devs sometimes chasing a 'moving-target' spec)
2. Design not knowing the current state of development
Because the reference point was Microsoft's pricing not the hardware vendor's this appears to be a cost savings achieved by moving some support functions in house.

It's a bit like pointing out how much Google saves by building their own servers and data centers. Most companies are not IBM with a large scale world class nix technical staff in house to the point that offering nix consulting is a profitable line of business.

If you just need a vim with python, it's fairly simple to compile from source. You can start by modifying what's given here:
https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe/wiki/Building-Vim-...

About the package system, yes there really isn't any documentation at all because it doesn't do all that much in the first place. I would suggest just using vim-plug or another package manager.

Also, there really isn't anything to learn in Neovim. Mainly just try out the terminal emulator and come up with some terminal maps.
>Houses really were more affordable for your grandparents. The same with mine.

The average new home size in the 70's (earliest census data) was somewhere around 1500 sq/ft.

Now the average is somewhere around 2,500 square feet with a smaller family size.

Yes, if you buy more house it will be more expensive.

The price per square foot has remained relatively stable.

I found it striking how similar the system that I have settled into is to yours, and also the similarity of the benefits that you ascribed to it. I love having my /home/name/tmp folder and being able to delete everything in it without worry when I find it becoming a bit crowded. I find that it takes care of most things I don't need but there are a lot of small projects and downloaded libraries that sit in my programming projects directory that are more difficult to delete. All in all I find the organization very relaxing and passive.
Roughly the buckets I have are:
- Downloads
- Documents
- workspace (programming projects)
- tmp
Personally, none of the bullet points you mentioned matter to me at all, so I'm glad about the improved native package loading. Plus, I've always found it weird to need a package in order to load other packages (in a remotely sane way).

As your comment implies, vim's improved package handling is still pretty simplistic compared to some existing plugin managers, so there's really no reason _not_ to want the functionality in vim. It's not like it was a huge addition to the code that's now slowing down your system, or messing up existing plugin managers. Similarly, it's not going to cause fuller-featured plugin managers to cease further development.
Lantea, the beautiful 3D printable articulated doll
As co-founder of a sport startup I’ve had many conversations with my future customers. On many occasions I observed and talked to teenage football players about their behaviour on and off the pitch.

When it comes down to sharing their own sports data there’s undoubtedly a big gap between the live experience on the field and the conversation about it online. Apparently, there’s no need to highlight themselves to their friends with their match results, to post video’s of amazing actions or make a comparison with other players. In other words, talking about your own sport is too boring.

So, the sport definitely is changing because of esports and games. And it's great!
Black Mirror ads targeting ad blocker users
I think this is a bit roundabout but mostly true. Here's what I see and the right conclusion, in my experience / my humble opinion.

trend: startup founders who have never done sales want to hire a sales expert

problem: there is no sales script, the product is too infant to sell for a seasoned sales person. the sales person doesn't know what they can and can't promise to dictate the roadmap and vision of the company as a whole.

solution: as painful as it is, founders need to do all the selling until the product is mature enough and there is a repeatable sales process that doesn't require a crazy amount of dev work for each new customer

Hi, I'm the guy who wrote this article. Good comments. Some thoughts:

* It takes a lot of people to write software, too. Those SoMoLo SaaS world-changers don't design and code themselves.

* But, the tech industry has found ways to bootstrap ideas that do not involve eight- or nine-figure up-front bets. The only difference between "high end" movies and "indie film" is that indies merely require six- or seven-figure up-front bets.

* Every industry that is disrupted goes through two revolutions: (1) it is digitized, i.e. it joins the "World Of Bits" (VGR) or the "IT Era" (Stratechery's phrasing); and (2) it is networked, i.e. the Internet enables new business models and production modes.

* That first revolution usually benefits incumbents. It lets them do the same exact things, more efficiently.

* Further, that first revolution is commonly confused with "disruption". But if it's not unseating incumbents -- it ain't.

* Filmed entertainment is still at the tail end of this first revolution. (I had the first two RED cameras, so I've had a front row seat to this.) But many pieces of the supply chain are still mired in Paper Belt mentality.

I mainly wrote this to stimulate discussion and thought among my film industry peers. Ironically, there's been far more engagement from y'all hackers instead. Probably because hackers, like rappers, tend to think of themselves as entrepreneurs by default. Filmmakers: you need to catch up.
Wallonia is adamantly blocking the EU’s trade deal with Canada
We messed around and discovered neat hacks. From those hacks we expanded on the concepts and developed more robust things.

Resources were programmers reference guides, technical publications (i.e. BYTE in the 80s, Dr. Dobb's Journal) Lots of snacks and hours bashing code.

If you look at a lot of the games of the time some programmer would figure out say a cool looking jump for a game character, and from that build it into a platformer. Same with productivity someone devises a faster method to edit a file bigger then system memory and bases a new word processor on that.

So in today's world it's pretty much the same thing; you see a technology and figure out how to improve upon it, try to adapt it to your platform of choice (and employ new methods), or stumble upon some other idea while messing around and you build from that. There's a lot more resources to build and bolster your concepts now then there was back in the 80s - that's for sure.

What the heck is with the implication that offline is for Middle East, Africa etc? I'm in the UK, have usually lived and worked in urban locations, but I am yet to live or work somewhere that hasn't had some degree of signal issue. Does the whole of SV and California have perfect signal?

Like phone works only in a certain part of one room, or works but sensitive to movement, or works fine, but you'll have multiple outages between home and work. Leads to missed calls, texts, and plays havoc with apps that mostly assume perfect connection. My attempt to adopt Google Play music was over in a week or two.

I wouldn't mind if I was in the wilds, I'd expect it, but that's in towns of 100k+ - 1m+. Crap signal and breaks isn't some rare edge case, it's common.

Let's assume, that foreign countries such as Russia or China would be trying to sabotage our elections on Nov 8th night. What are the severe economic and political backlash that we can deal with if we cut off the traffic coming in from those region (not in a "we control the internet" kinda way)? I am sure they already have nodes operating within the USA. A lot of major tech companies use CDNs that can still serve traffic globally to the consumers of those countries. Even better, how about we regulate and slow down all of incoming traffic for say half day on election day? Is it even possible?
Many industries have well defined boom-bust cycles that have little to do with consumer demand. I was at Boeing when their bust was happening during an overall economic boom, so it's even possible for that cycle to be out of sync with the greater economy.
I use DDG at work and the sheer number of times I just resort to sticking !g in front of the query in order to find what I'm looking for is bemusing.

True, on the other hand, go will take care of that to some extend and terminate if all go routines have been deadlocked.

> But something that I almost never hear: critics offering a candid explanation for why their platform / language / framework - which maybe wasn't perfect but CERTAINLY compared to JavaScript was awesome - did not become the de facto tool across as diverse a spectrum for delivering features / products / tools to users.

Because JavaScript was, and basically still is, the only option for client-side web development - that is to say, it was, and basically is, the only option for distributing sandboxed, instantly-updating executable code to users at any scale. Any other language requires me to convince users to download an application that runs with full privileges on their account. (For a while we also had Flash and Java, but then we realized that Flash and Java basically also imply full privileges, in practice, because their sandboxes don't work well.)

Therefore, JS got popular; therefore, people used it. This has very little to do with the quality of the language or its libraries. Note that I am not criticizing the quality any more than I'm praising it, just saying that it's irrelevant as long as it's good enough.

Basically the same thing happened with UNIX and C at a much smaller scale several decades ago, except it wasn't about client-side app development, it was about getting things to run on servers at all. UNIX isn't a fantastic OS. C isn't a fantastic language. But, in the words of Richard Gabriel's "The Rise of Worse is Better", "UNIX and C are the ultimate computer viruses."

https://www.dreamsongs.com/RiseOfWorseIsBetter.html

JavaScript and the dynamic web the new ultimate computer viruses. But they grew much, much more quickly, and haven't had the benefit of the last forty-ish years to get decently good. UNIX and C in the middle of the UNIX wars were at least as much of a disaster.

There is a (perhaps apocryphal) story about the art class which was separated into 2 groups - one group worked on a single project all semester and the other group worked on a new project every day. People in the group that worked on a project every day produced better work than people in the "single project" group. My google-fu is weak, so I cannot find the reference.

I'm not suggesting that the Javascript ecosystem is filled with awesome stuff, but sometimes quantity leads to quality.

Do you have a link to a specific page within that report demonstrating your point? I skimmed through it and all I saw is that it says that there are some risks. Obviously I'm not denying that. It doesn't say at all that the risks are so high that we can't do missions with current technology (which provides minimal to no radiation shielding in transit). Mainly it's saying that further study is merited, which I absolutely agree with. I also think we don't need to hold off on going until we achieve perfect mitigation, and I believe most NASA employees would agree with me on that as well.
"The entire internet and software landscape is changing"

Really? Is it Web 4.0 now?

People are changing the stack because they don't know any better and trying to justify their salary. That's the bottom line. The rush to stay current is just bandwagon-hype.
Interesting idea! I can see how this can increase the likelihood that people who are already follow you will see your updates. That said, if they're already following you, they're already likely going to be looking for your activity, right?

I can see how this can increase views/clicks on your content, which can increase the overall visibility of your site, which in turn can drive new users to your content.

In your blog post you also mention looking at the general analytics of the sites themselves, so am I right to understand you take into account other factors in addition to follower activity? For Slack, which doesn't have followers per se, is it based on overall activity? Activity in the channels you're in? I guess I'm wondering how "audience" is defined.

Glad to hear you've found success for your business with Yala. Do you have any comparisons of how it contributed in addition to other methods you're using?
