Deep work isn't a new concept. I just finished Cal's book and, while it's a decent read, I didn't learn anything.

The way it stands, Snapchat already has more data points to tap from and richer content and interaction opportunities than traditional media (television, radio, print, OOH...), and this could be further improved in future versions. You don't need to set out to compete against Google and Facebook when the actual big fish in the market are in fact easier to position yourself against.

It might seem petty, but I can't see how it hurt their case. If you're migrating hundreds of queries or reports from a local SQL environment to the cloud, being 100% query compatible is nice.
Exception flow control is far more structured than goto. An unexpected goto can drop you anywhere in memory, with no idea how you go there or how to get back. Exceptions cause a clearly-defined chain of events and you always know exactly where you'll end up (passing through all the finally blocks until you hit the closest catch block).
Good observations. The difference with Spectacles is playfulness and fun: kids goofing off for the camera on a beach vs normcore cyborg narrating on a bluetooth headset.

A potential weakness of Spectacles as a product is that it augments only non-selfie, "extraverted" photography. So it doesn't engage the selfie obsessed side of the userbase as much as the phone-based AR filters do.

I haven't been a fan of Snapchat, but now I'm curious to see how users react to this product.
The reason people think that IPC is not important (and I agree with you, btw) is because so often bad designs are built around IPC.

The reason Linux is opposed to integrating IPC into the kernel is because it's been done more than once, poorly, resulting in a lousy API that needs to be supported forever by kernel devs.

So come up with a good solution.
In the LWN article linked by another commentator:

"Tom Gundersen, one of the authors, acknowledged that having a dedicated system call to create a peer, and to perform the various other operations that currently use ioctl(), might make more sense for eventual upstream submission. Devices and ioctl() have been used so far because they make out-of-tree development easier."

So I think using ioctl is a prototyping concession.

I'm not an expert on this matter but I think it is the Android devs that want it not Red Hat it is similar to the android specific BINDER IPC mechanism but with multicast support.

The Ruins of Dead Social Networks (2011)
I think the market's expectation is that a DNS provider is prepared for a DDoS of any size, but not necessarily any level of complexity, so that's a lot of incentive to talk up the complexity of the attack.

> The issue is the the 12-20 years are quite mercurial.

I don't think we are mercurial but that we have less experience and therefore are much more willing to try new things. Snapchat is way better as an outlet to post more regular things you are doing to your friends because it is ephemeral.

Why? Because we all look back and see all the stupid stuff we posted when we were younger. The only reason I haven't deleted my facebook to delete all of that old stuff is because Facebook's other offerings are pretty good. While I hardly know anyone that posts regularly to facebook anymore, almost everyone uses facebook messenger and groups to communicate in isolated groups.

Snapchat has been blowing up because it fills that niche of "I want to post more updates about my life without really having to worry about how those updates will be interpreted in the future".
Why would you want to do that in what is basically a human readable binary file and not in a readme?

You seemed to stop at the for who and for what purpose.

I can 'just' about see the case in something like nodeJS package.json files (that is the least of nodeJS's problems, but that's a whole other conversation). But a readme is a so much better option than having to troll through code comments.

That's basically what stcredzero is saying I think.
Google is supposedly hiding a direct competitor to one of its main product from its search engine, the main entry of the Internet for millions of people that aren't very proficient with computers.

Google's product, Gmail offer considerably lower security and privacy than this competitor and using it instead of ProtonMail may very realistically get someone (a journalist, whistleblower, LGBT activist...) in deep trouble or even killed in lots of places and contexts.

I think this is a pretty evil move. Not only for this but what it represents when, again, millions of people were educated for years to enter the Internet through this search engine and don't have any clue that it may not only tamper with the order of the results but also hide websites.

Would it? Or would it slowly decrease? Nearly all businesses have some momentum, after all.

If you can walk away for say a year without touching it at all and the revenue remains basically steady, I'll agree it is passive.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter - it sounds like you are working at growing a business you enjoy and that's great.
What I meant was:

1. Get Wikipedia to send lots of requests to Archive.

2. Archive blocks requests from Wikipedia.

3. Wikipedia citations are disabled.

In other words getting Wikipedia to DDoS Archive, so that Archive's defense hurts Wikipedia.

A very silly scenario of course, just coming up with one for why an attacker might want to indirectly DDoS Archive via Wikipedia.

> you can build a desktop with gtx 1070 for 700$

I'm not familiar with latest prices in the US but I would say $700 gets you more something like an i5 + GTX1060 (and it has a much larger form-factor and you have to build it yourself, so probably it's not a fair comparison), but yeah the 1060 or even the new (and cheap) 1050 are still much better than the 965m

EDIT: NewEgg has this one that is prebuilt, 1060+i5, but it's a bit more than $700 (normal price $829, now on sale at $749) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883230... so yeah, to get it within a $700 budget you would probably have to self-build.
So, in other words, you don't understand why we have zoning laws, so you think they should be wiped off of the books.
Once again, you're making incorrect statements, even after I called you out on the comment below. If you're not working for Correct The Record already, they owe you a paycheck.

1) In a leaked DNC email, Colin Powell (the person you purport to have told Hillary to concoct this email scheme) writes: "I didn't tell Hillary to have a private server at home, connected to the Clinton Foundation, two contractors, took away 60,000 emails, had her own domain"

2) You are again asserting that there was nothing marked classified. There were 110 emails in 52 email chains that were classified at the time they were sent or received, and at least 3 (that the FBI director remembers) that contained visible classified header markings.

Regardless, I think a lot of people love 3D touch, and it shows in /r/iPhone.

That will take time to stabilize (as right-click has) and become the norm, I suspect.

> You can’t just cherry-pick the one query where a given product is the fastest. The workloads in the database domain have broad requirements

Well you can if that test matches the use-case of the database. Big Data databases are not like transnational databases, tend to perform column oriented analytics and tend to not join very well (they may lack indexes altogether).

I find this post to be more misleading than Google - he seems to be conceitedly ignoring the fact that many specialised databases exist that do certain things really well - and selecting tests that match their use-case is entirely appropriate.

The exact quote:

"Our vehicle gross margin increased Q2 to Q3. One of the other things I've seen out there is that somehow we achieved these numbers as a result of widespread discounting. That is absolutely false. There were a few discounts but they were few and far between and that has been absolutely shut down to zero. You can see that in the fact that the vehicle profitability increased, even excluding ZEV credits, Q2 to Q3."

I just came to these realization over dinner. Apparently, this is the odd behavior is defined by JSON. So, it's not Python's json module at fault because it is, actually, implemented correctly.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON#Data_portability_issues

This whole time I thought the json module had a bug, but now I am wondering if it's another PyYAML bug.

Maybe not. I'll have to read this section a few more times. http://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2770814

Edit: Going back a bit here.

> Specifically, the spec around escaped unicode characters lacks any mention of surrogates being encoded in two \u sequences,

http://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2771184 makes the statement, "All characters mentioned in this specification are Unicode code points. Each such code point is written as one or more bytes depending on the character encoding used. Note that in UTF-16, characters above #xFFFF are written as four bytes, using a surrogate pair.". And, there's numerous mentions for JSON compatibility. So, I suppose, this is an issue PyYAML (and Ruby's YAML, I checked).

I had never seen this issue before. Ruby's JSON module doesn't breakup utf-8 characters into surrogate pairs, nor does any online json parser that I could find via Google.

If you look at the form factor, the hybrid drive is most likely a 2.5 inch drive. As far as I know there are no hybrid drives in the compact ssd size (either m.2 or msata format - the spinning platter wouldn't even fit). Just by listing that it uses a hybrid drive, they are already revealing what the form factor is - which is larger than a m.2 slot, and therefore competes head to head with the last gen 2.5 inch SSD with the SATA connector - which at 1TB is around 300 bucks these days.

And yes the SSD's are not as fast as the latest m.2 drives, but are still miles ahead of any spinning drive. I'm not really sure what you are trying to say ... like a Ferrari is faster than a Tesla in Ludicrous mode, so ... go for an electric hybrid like a Toyota Prius? I know that the car analogy doesn't always work, but can you think about your reasoning? That a true M.2 SSD (which can be thousands of dollars) is faster than a last gen 1TB SSD in the 2.5 inch form factor, so therefore MS should use a spinning hybrid drive???

You can wait for a teardown, or you can use logic and common sense.

The only other choice is for MS to use a non standard size spinning platter, maybe around the old Compact Flash drive size - but in that case, there is absolutely no point - they should have just gone straight to M.2, especially for something in that form factor.

To be honest, current generation hybrid drives pair up a really slow 5400 rpm drive with some flash. Now it can still get good performance, but in the end, you're dealing with a hard drive from a few generations ago. Seagate had 7200rpm hybrid drives last generation, but they recently changed to 5400 rpm drives, which makes the drive kinda slow, even with the flash addition.

Microsoft may certainly have gone custom with custom parts, but I don't think they have the volume, even in the wildest expectations, to go against the now popular ssd juggernaunt that is overtaking all of the slim laptop (Apple, Lenovo, Dell, Razer, etc), small form factor embedded pc, and high performance pc space - for good reason. It just makes sense, the parts are really widely available, and people are expecting that type of performance.

Though we'll never know for sure, there's some conjecture that that Intel's cancellation of the Broxton smartphone chip in May torpedoed MS's plans for an x86 Windows Phone this year.

Despite being the world’s best known processor maker, Intel was only a bit player in the mobile space dominated by Qualcomm, Apple, and Samsung, and it finally chose to cut its losses and cancel its next planned chip, Broxton."

My impression is that bus1 appears to have taken the (copious) feedback from the kdbus debacle and actually applied it and looked at other platforms' IPC to build a novel IPC system for Linux worth using. There's a talk [1] about the design of bus1, and comparison against IPC on other platforms where IPC is saner, and how the capability model is the right design for IPC - composable, understandable, and secure-by-default. It strikes me that the bus1 devs arrived at their design after doing the things you suggested! :)

Is there something I'm missing? What might an ideal IPC API look like to you?
