I coded in the cloud full-time for over two years and loved it. I switched back and forth between Cloud9 and Nitrous based on plan changes and new features. The primary reason I switched back to local was for better Cordova debugging and Electron. For web development, it was really nice.
Those daily tracking polls are garbage and should be ignored.

Trump is on average closer to 40%.
> when I look at an open-source codebase built on React + Redux, it's so easy to understand the application architecture.

That's my point, I believe a library should not imply architecture.
To be honest I think we need to stop thinking that "cloud development" needs to be in a browser. People like to do all sorts of things with their IDE that I certainly hope browsers never let pages do, like intercepting certain command keys, controlling the layout of multiple windows interacting with and knowing more about the user's display dimensions and multi-monitor, etc.

Not to mention things like vertical-selection, or multiple cursor modes for column editing, which can't be done at all in any of the current web-based editors which AFAIK are all based on contentEditable rather than a custom renderer like the original Bespin (I think, that thing changed codewords a lot).

Now some of these can be addressed with Electron or similar, but there's a lot of things that are nice to do in a code editor that just aren't compatible with the DOM itself, and need a deeper customisation of the rendering and input management.

TL/DR - it's mostly UX :D
> it's important to note it was a NATO operation with full support from European partners, unlike the invasion of Iraq

Not wrong in the general thrust, but I think "full support from European partners" is overstating it a bit. By raw numbers, it had support of about half of the European NATO members. It's true that the half supporting were generally more important/core members than the half abstaining or opposing though; the only really core NATO member who conspicuously abstained was Germany. Others abstaining were mostly new or more peripheral members, but still a significant number: Portugal, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Croatia, Slovenia, Albania, Hungary.
Given the context, what browser is that going into? How is that relevant to browser sandboxing?
Tell you what, if you're in New York right now, I'll buy you a beer and spend the rest of the evening telling you why Trump's pitch is resonating with this country. Otherwise I'm not interested in arguing with this kind of uninformed trolling.

Edit: Since the parent post has been heavily edited now its author found out what an assumption (and a visa) is, I want to stress that it started off as blatantly nationalist crap claiming one can't possibly understand Trump if their website says "Athens, Greece".

There's a ton of reasons why Trump's pitch is popular. The core reason is because he's making it resonate. The driver behind that is that trump is in fact a salesman rather than a career politician. Plenty of people have made this point far better than me; one of the cleaner explanations I found is from youtuber NerdWriter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aFo_BV-UzI
Black Voters, Aghast at Trump, Find a Place of Food and Comfort
In rural and low-density suburban areas, it's expected (and basically required) that everyone in the house who has a job also has a car.

Take a look at the size of high school and commuter college student parking lots on Google Earth, and then consider that every single one of those cars probably belongs to a household with 3+ cars (mom, dad, teenager).

Very common for parents to upgrade and pass their old car down to their 16-year-old instead of trading in.
Out of curiosity, what are you doing where 16GB is becoming an issue?

You bring up some interesting points. I think we all agree we want to be able to make progress on connectors. The question is how we do so.

- Before something is widely adopted, how do we decide which connectors to use on future products?

- How do we transition from one to another?

Some thoughts that came to mind when reading your comment: What did people do before computers had HDMI ports? SD slots? How about audio systems that have 1/4" plugs (not 3.5mm)?
Can anyone explain to me these oft-mentioned government subsidies on fossil fuels?

Gas has 25% taxes where I live. Surely that's the opposite of 'subsidizing' it (vs, for example, electricity which is taxed at 5%).

What am I missing?
Even ignoring the safety aspect, people buying any remotely major product will have the expectation that it will ideally be supported for some time to come. e.g., buy a car and have the manufacturer around for long enough to help out with servicing, parts, etc.
This seems inaccurate. For example, Box Alignment lists Firefox as having no support at all when it actually has full support as far as I’m aware.

Edit: the detailed information page disagrees with the summary (indeed listing full support) https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/platfor... so I suppose it’s just a mistake.
My experience is exactly the opposite. I have found Level3 to be slow and unhelpful.
This year we have seen a few outages due to this mismanagement of routing. When Easily avoidable mistakes are repeated, it raises a few questions.
Well he was using it. I'm quite sure they didn't fake it. I'm absolutely sure I couldn't do it.

I'm also remain very certain that Apple is not trying to discourage people from using this thing because it only has a life span of whatever hours of active use. How I know it? Because they have been selling touchscreens for ten years now, under much stronger constraints, without any such shenanigans. And also because it is an incredibly stupid theory.
The pricing keeps getting brought up. I understand the prices have gone up especially for some non-US buyers, but for those in the US, where are you seeing the hit? I might be insulated from this because I usually opt for the high-end 15", and from what I can remember the price on that hasn't changed. Is it the 13" models where the price has gone up?
I agree that more funding in science and technology is what we need. But Barack Obama had more in common with the status quo than with what his commentary is suggesting.

There also seems to be a disconnect between what is being said in this article versus the reality. Yes there have been improvements in crime and poverty perhaps, but the quality of employment, the quality of general life for the average person in the West seems to have only degraded in the last decade or two.

I would also argue that the pace of technological advancement has decreased. Despite on-going advances in computer science, we have stalled in many other fields since the end of the cold war, in particular space.

Work often reminds me of this film.
The shingles themselves look great. The installation is terrible, right over the top of old shingles and not even fully covering the old shingles. It's not edge-to-edge.

Either it was a dumb install, or those "shingles" aren't really roofing material.
Thanks, Marc.

After reading your docs and install scripts, I think another option for us is to run the database directly on the client's host. That is, as part of our installation guide, we'd say Step1:Install Replicated, Step2:Install DB, Step3:Run setup. This might be easier in a trusted environment where containers can be started on the host network. This approach has potential issues with replication, encryption, upgradeability, etc, but those are normal infrastructure challenges and have nothing to do with Replicated.
A permanent occupation of Iraq in a situation where you've intentionally broken relations with Iraq's large and powerful neighbor Saudi Arabia sounds like a recipe for much larger trouble than even current Syria!
The 30% tax credit for solar installations may well be adjusted. These kinds of things are not so absolute.
Odd that they call out Cary Grant, he was in fact British.

Exactly. I find it ironic this article cites Snowden while literally sounding like the very spying that Snowden exposed and fought.
Ivanka Trump vacationing with Putin's family would be scandalous, but Wendi Deng was only rumored to be (and has denied) dating him.
Not well educated, we can say.
I don't even think he read it.

There's a section in the book where he says that he shouldn't be given too much credit for the Wollman rink project, because the NYC government had regulatory requirements that didn't apply to his construction team.

Only in a parallel universe would DJT give himself less credit.
Sure. You live close to the Lower East?
This is exactly the conclusion of an interview of Barbara Corcoran[1] (a business-woman who has known Trump for years) back in May:

"He's probably one of the most powerful & effective salespeople I have ever met in my life"

But as she mentions, good salesman skills aren't what is expected of a President's job. It's certainly a very good asset for winning votes in the election, but not what people should want to see in a leader. In a smaller scale, it looks similar to the absolute best car dealership salesman elected mayor of his town.

Healthy for the ecosystem? Haha when was the last time Apple listened to the customers. Before with Jobs it was my way or the highway and that was fine since it was his firm and his vision we all got behind. But this new Apple is fighting to stay relevant in an environment with newcomers like MS and Google so I think we might have seen peak Apple actually.
Note that the "races" wording is taken from the voting machine manual. But I agree, it seems kindof deliberate.
> software now has more features, there was nothing like modern web apps 15 years ago.

You're confusing "features" with the technology delivering them. ;)

> why is my 1 year old budget smartphone, that's 4 times as powerful as the 1st laptop I owned, so laggy that's it's nearly unusable?!)

cough Java cough :)

A friend of mine used a Nokia N900 smartphone (running Maemo Linux), with a single-core 600 MHz CPU and 256 MB RAM. When it finally died, he moved to a recent Samsung Galaxy model, and complained about how it is much laggier when performing the same tasks that the ancient N900 breezed through at buttery smooth 60 FPS.
If it was a Trump joke, would it be ok for you (and the rules)? It seems so.

It looks to me like in Remark 4 he's assuming that each instruction in the program always runs on the same memory location. So that step works only if the program executes linearly, without loops. If that's true it's probably a major flaw in his argument.

I'm curious how you came across this. Is it being discussed somewhere else ?
That is probably my biggest qualm with it, and really only problem I face. That there are a lot of libraries that do the same thing, but are incompatible. If there were standards it would solve a lot of problems.
This is why we need a national electronic system using open source code. Each citizen of the republic should be assigned a citizen identification number and a second factor (password or fingerprint). We all go to a web site to vote. Voting opens for seven days, and closes at midnight PST the final day. Results are announced immediately afterword. It's time for the electoral college to be retired.
I do feel the same. Musk has its own Jobs recipe. Jobs took bad consumerism, propped up features, slick user interface (material and logical). And peeled plastic. Musk swaps carbon for electric, makes it as stylish as the rest if not more, plus way more sturdier than the rest.
The single, biggest problem is that the progress isn't being shared.

In all first world countries wages are stagnant, housing is completely unaffordable, education is a luxury rather than a right and the rich are getting richer and worst of all more brazen e.g. Rich Kids of Instagram.
The original Star Wars movies were largely shot in Britain, and used British actors for many of the roles, especially the Imperial officers and officials. Carrie Fisher's family had worked in Hollywood during the "golden age" of the mid-Atlantic accent and she had been sent to an elocution school in the U.K. just before being cast for Star Wars - although she admits that her accent changed a lot in the first Star Wars movie.
>Anyway the problem isn't the ignoring of the masses. It's that there has been a failure to communicate in a way they can understand. Free trade isn't responsible for the loss of their jobs and globalisation was always going to happen.

By and large the people who benefit the most from free trade and immigration aren't the people who pay the price. We could have fashioned policies such that both the benefits and the pain from globalization were spread more evenly, although there would have been a cost in terms of overall growth.

This isn't a communication problem. The problem is trade policies, environmental regulations, the legal environment, and immigration policies reflect the concerns of well-educated upper-middle-class and wealthier people to the exclusion of everyone else.
The thing is that you evaluate "big" and "obvious" with the sensors that you have. They obviously werent obstacles for the algo that was driving.

What about forcing everything to be in the same compilation unit? Is this ever worth it?
I'm surprised that nobody looks at the insipid presidency of Obama as one of the explanations for the rise of Trump. Obama has been little more than a figurehead of a system that runs itself and therefore can be considered as "out of control". Throwing a monkey wrench in the system may at this point be the only way for the voter to take back control.
Depends on how slow cloc is. 100x faster than "already very fast" is not going to be a perceptible benefit.
To me, the solar roof is the most interesting project coming out of Tesla so far... and of course it combines nicely with their other products. But when will it be available and for how much? I need to replace my roof soon.
Maybe thanks to Sir Alec Guinness? (Who supposedly disliked the Star Wars experience so much that he gave Lucas the idea that Obi-Wan should die, just so that he would be rid of the role... This could be a myth.)
We had our chance and lost it, the DoD was doing great things with Ada. But 1) the compilers sucked 2) they were hard to get ahold of and 3) there wasn't nearly as much training material on how to use Ada well. Then the DoD acquiesced on Ada and permitted embedded dev in C/C++.

I am totally fine with a high level tool emitting C. C is a fine portable target. But the high level system should pass some provable rigor.

Would you say you're paying more or similar for other transit, and are there any transit providers you have an unusually good experience with?

It's one of those industries where you have to negotiate with sales people (I hate doing this) to get any pricing information, and it's extremely difficult to gauge quality. That's why I added "take with a grain of salt" to my general perception comment.

Tip for ailing IP transit companies: put your damn pricing on your web site! AWS can do it, you can too. You often offer far better BW rates than the cloud providers do, but you do a horrible job showing it.
Yes. It's multi-provider authentication as a service.

I think this matters, since it means I can run a single instance to support all of my projects, regardless of language, because everything speaks HTTP. I don't have to grapple with OmniAuth for Ruby, AllAuth for Python, Passwordless for Node, and lord knows what for experiments in Clojure, Elixir, and Rust. I don't have to set up outbound email, register social API keys, and design a hybrid login form for each of those projects, either. Set up Portier once, and I'm done. I've written more about Persona's failings and virtues at https://github.com/portier/portier.github.io/blob/master/Oth..., which might better explain why I view this as a successor.

As to Identity Providers... as long as websites utilize email addresses as a way of identifying accounts and resetting passwords, we're in the same place. Portier makes this no worse. I sympathize with the notion that identity should not be leased from a third party, but I don't know how to solve that. Blockchains? I'd encourage others to pursue that future while Portier tries to carve out an ephemeral but useful island in the present.

Whenever I'm traveling in areas where people speak with an accent (either english or my native language), I can't stop myself from imitating it. Really badly. After a week or so I'm terribly annoyed by the sound of my own voice. It has even happened when someone was visiting, and acting in some sort of leadership role with a lot of speaking time.

So I could imagine a single Hollywood director could possibly start a trend (if everybody'a speech center were as spineless as mine).

Poverty is down absolutely, but never have it been so high relatively. Rich people never lived so well and poor people never struggled so hard to try to live 1/10 of what money provides today. People don't feel less poor when they have a 2000' car and everyone in Instagram has a brand new.
Keep in mind that tracking polls track likely voters.

It's erroneous to extrapolate from likely voters to the population at large. Granted that the sentiment of likely voters will line up quite well with the population at large, it's just that a likely voter poll necessarily rejects people who don't give a shit. The people who don't give a shit shouldn't be counted as supporting anything.
The article is a bit shallow. It would be nice to see:

1. What flavours of PGO optimizations were applied? What was the isolated impact of each one of them on both speed and size of the code?

2. What tests did they use to "guide" PGO?

3. How did they analyze PGO results(except for these three tests that were provided)? I assume they did not blindly trust it, therefore there should be a way of visualizing differences between two binaries with millions of lines of code.

4. How did PGO affect crash statistics?

I guess this article is part of the democratic campaign, in which the obamas are the shining beacons. The US president may know better than anyone if his country is in its best state ever, but the rest of the world is not. My country greece has not seen bodies of drowned refugees being washed in our shores since 1922. It's a shocking reality that we never expected we 'd see. The US campaigns in the surrounding region have been failing so abysmally and for so long that we, as a globe, have acquired learned helplessness with regards to wars. War is not the only possible answer to everything, and when its used, it must be used wisely. For that reason alone, i hope trump's inward-looking, anti-inverventionist agenda wins.
Most of online ides use Ace or Codemirror both of which support sublime style multiple cursors and are not based on contentEditable
Serious suggestion. Assuming it is legal wherever you are consider periodic visits to a brothel. Attractive young ladies (or gentleman) whose job is providing convenient sex to people they probably wouldn't otherwise have sex with.

I have heard of couple's coming to an arrangement where the husband (it always seems to be the husband) goes once a month.

Similarly I have met divorced men who opt for brothels in place of pursuing other relationships. This decision typically seems to come after an expensive divorce when they do the math and realize that it may be cheaper to have sex with a parade of paid professionals Vs getting into another serious relationship and losing half their stuff again.

It reads to me as though Google disclosed an 0day to promote Google Chrome.

This is fine.

Edit: http://venturebeat.com/2016/10/31/google-discloses-actively-...

> A source close to the company also shared that the exploit Google describes requires the Adobe Flash vulnerability. Since Flash has been patched, the Windows vulnerability is mitigated.

If the immediate risk has been mitigated (barring other unknown attack vectors, this was the immediate one of which Google appears to have been aware), this makes the disclosure seem even more shamelessly promotional. I'd presume the Flash vuln would be to enable drive-by exploitation, so if that risk is mitigated, then they really seriously could've let this one wait.

NAFTA/GATT was enthusiastically passed during Bill Clinton's Presidency. And both Bush senior and junior have publicly backed Hillary Clinton in this election. The 'Liberal' refers to 'Neo-Liberal'. Both the Democratic and Republican party establishment, and most of Washington policy makers support Corporate Free trade and USA global military dominance. Neo-Liberal policy regardless of what language you use to support it has been the core of US policy for the better part of 50 years regardless of which party the President belongs to.
