>And there's still zero proof Russia had anything to do with it.

The western intelligence community has converged on the conclusion that the Russian government was involved and staked their reputation on that conclusion. So, unless you just don't trust your government at all, it's likely to be true.

Neat article! Coming from a Haskell background in my first post-college job, I also modeled several problems using Haskell types and later translated them into C++.

It felt a little silly at first, but really did help clarify my understanding of the problem domain and let me play around with composing and operating on data structures very quickly in an interactive REPL. Once I was happy with the data structures and had a good understanding of the most complicated operations over them, it was a simple task to build the analogous C++ classes.

How do they differentiate between a Russian Intelligence hacker and one sharing resources with one? Or just a kid in a basement somewhere?
There are multiple reporters who colluded with the Clinton campaign to push a specific narrative during the election. In one example, Glenn Thrush went so far as to call himself a hack in one of the emails to her campaign chairman, which he ended with "Please don't tell anyone I did this".

Granted there's a difference between bias and a completely fabricated article about something that did not happen, but presenting half the story is also problematic, as is coordinating with the people who the story is being written about.

Unfortunately, if one were to entertain the idea of banning Politico, it would be considered an affront to the idea of freedom of the press.

By agreeing to allow biased coverage to profit from advertising, Facebook is essentially saying that you can do this as long as you don't get caught. By the same yardstick, several right leaning media companies are guilty of the same sin, but the fact that we have proof in this case suggests that this is a standard practice in the industry, which reveals that honest reporting may only exist upto a particular point.

What, How, and Why of AI, Machine Learning, and Self-Driving Cars
I think many of the arguments in this article might have been applicable back in 2012 when single page application frameworks were the new and popular thing. We can all agree that Angular 1 served us well at the time, but introduced added complexity and issues of its own (digest cycle being the main one). Some of the frameworks/libraries out there right now are stellar.

I have been using Aurelia for 1.5 years now and honestly, I could never go back to jQuery and other libraries again. I've worked with React, Vue, Angular 2 and dipped my feet into Ember. Of all of those, I would say Angular 2 was by far the most non developer friendly framework of them all. Ember is the most opinionated and some developers like that, but for me, I have settled on Aurelia and I do not plan on switching anytime soon.

Having said all of that, sometimes you don't need a SPA framework, sometimes jQuery or even Lodash will serve your needs. When it comes to needing support for routing, data-binding between view and some kind of view-model, I'll pick a SPA over jQuery and having to hack together something that is far less efficient than existing SPA solutions any day of the week.

Assess your needs and choose whatever works for you.
First online yoga event ever to be crowd-funded successfully
CNN saying that it is illegal for the public to read Wikileaks emails.

I can't think of any other examples of outright lies, but there's alot of lying by omission; e.g. we now know that the DNC was heavily biased towards Clinton in the primaries, that they were inciting violence at Trump rallies, and that they were given the debate questions prior to debates. Was this even reported on main leftwing media?

Edit: also all the reduction of Trump's voters to just being racist, sexist and the accusations of the "whitelash" - why don't they talk about "blacklash" every time a democrat wins?

Edit 2: another example is the recent backlash against Breitbart. Although I see them mainly as a contrarian news site (similar to ZeroHedge), they probably have some bias - but just because it's the opposite of other media, you can't call it racism/sexism. Why is women voting for a woman feminist, men voting for a man sexist? Why are pro-black movements described as #BlackLivesMatter and pro-white movements as white supremacist? Accusations of bias are pretty empty when you're so full of it yourself...

Opinion pieces by the major news platforms. CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, Bloomberg, Business Insider, MSNBC, Politico all seem to have run an endless parade of opinion pieces about sexist or racist voters being the reason Hillary lost.

What you typically get in the news stories, is indirect leaner statements, such as: 'and Donald Trump - who often ran a hateful campaign filled with racist and sexist statements - is the President-elect.'

I didn't vote for Trump and I had to stop reading content on most of those sites throughout the end of the election because they became overwhelming propaganda platforms for Hillary's campaign. Business Insider seemed to become 1/2 anti-Trump articles in its content, they weren't even pretending to be unbiased - fine, but if I wanted that I'd go to the Huffington Post not a mainstream business news site.
The move was _intially_ welcomed, but as the days went on massive flaws in execution became obvious. Hence people are upset.

In response to this comment, I went and googled the incident. The primary source is a joint statement by the Department of Homeland Security and the Director of National Intelligence, which says:

> "The U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) is confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including from US political organizations."

https://www.dni.gov/index.php/newsroom/press-releases/215-pr...

The Director of National Intelligence is capable of mistakes, and their saying it does not necessarily mean it's true. But the statement was absolutely unambiguous. And yet, on a google search for "Podesta email DNI-DHS statement", I found lots of sites lying outright about the content of the statement:

> But am I wrong? I'm constantly aware that Facebook puts me in a filter bubble. Does anyone have any good examples of left-leaning fake, conspiratorial news stories in the last few years?

I think most seem to be right wing, but the left has it's share. Anti vaxers, anti GMO, anti "chemicals" tend to come from the left.

I think your mistaking the causation too. They aren't conspiracy theorists because they are right wing, they are right wing because they are conspiracy theorists. When you think the government is doing all these bad things then wanting less government is perfectly logical.
The western intelligence community has simply said that the Russian government accessed these mails. There's nothing to suggest that they're the ones who gave Wikileaks access though. It's quite likely that there were multiple parties who had access.
This is over engineering if I've ever seen it.

No, you are the one still not getting how the game industry works.

Those game engines support the graphics APIs from, PS3, PS4, PSP, PSP Vita, Wii, 3DS, OpenGL, DX9, DX10, DX11, DX12, WebGL, Metal, Vulkan.

Adding support for Vulkan is just yet another bullet point on that list, just like they are busy adding Metal support, as it was discussed at Unite LA.

The people that actually use those engines to make games, don't care what APIs are abstracted by those engines, as long as, their game is fast, takes full advantage of the GPU and targets the game system they want to sell to.

The study was previewed at a poster session at the AHA's annual conference this week. The full paper will be released shortly.

Doctors looked at 33,000 people who were hospitalized with stress cardiomyopathy (sudden rapid weakening of heart muscle without the typical MI markers) and found that 210 were activate marijuana users (via interviews or drug tests). Compared to non-users, marijuana users were found to be younger and less likely to have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, or other cardiac risk factors.

Even without these risk factors, marijuana users were 3x as likely to go into cardiac arrest and were 4x as likely to require an implanted defibrillator.

There were a number of confounding variables such as marijuana users being twice as likely to have a history of depression, 3x as likely to have a history of psychosis, 75% more likely to have a history of anxiety disorder, and much more likely to use tobacco, alcohol, or multiple drugs. These were all adjusted for and the heart problems still remained.

Yes, it's a retrospective study without the ability to draw correlations, but it's definitely concerning and definitely worth following up with further research.

From my own speculation, stress cardiomyopathy (aka broken heart syndrome, where a serious emotional trauma can cause literal heart damage) is thought to be linked to catecholamine-linked muscular dysfunction. There are some older studies that have shown left-ventricle performance loss and norepi increases for several hours after smoking marijuana, so it seems like the cardiomyopathy could just be the chronic result of repeated exposure.
I overreacted to a phrasing issue and it drowned out the rest of the discussion. That's my fault, and I'm sorry, because you legitimately tried to engage in discussion and I was rude. I appreciate your insight here and while I don't agree with the definition being asserted for "mock", I understand the desire for more fine-grained terminology.

I hope your next monthly comment isn't wasted on someone who overreacts to one tiny piece like I did.

> The left was rampant with conspiracy theories about the FBI throwing the election. Hillary went so far as to partially blame Comey.

That wasn't a "conspiracy theory", that was a straightforward interpretation of events which are not in dispute. Hillary had to mess up pretty badly for things to get to the point where that'd be relevant, but by calling it a "conspiracy theory" you come across as very dishonest.
It is nonsense to you, because all your arguments fail flat when there is an abstraction layer that hides away what actual APIs are being used.

Wolf Blitzer was receiving interview questions from the Clinton campaign when he was going to interview candidate Trump. While this isn't evidence of lying it is certainly evidence of an unethical relationship between the media and the candidates that it is supposed to be covering impartially. To collude with one of the campaigns is effectively allowing the campaign to skirt FEC regulations and utilize the strength of an entire news corporation to influence the outcome of an election. One could argue that this has the same impact as fake news.

I find it difficult to discern real and fake news because many in the mainstream media seem all too happy to twist words and take the least charitable position possible. How much twisting does it take until it becomes fake news?

That is far from proof. I might be a good reason to suspect but it's far from proof.

Definitely worth. Please make sure you are learning good things, not bad.

There is an approach to have all native apps with good codeshare developed easily. There are alternative approaches with less advantages.

We are using Xamarin since before it was Xamarin and are happy. Literally, there is no other way to have production-quality native apps for iOS and Android written in one language (with code shared). (Unless it's C-like language?)

Our code share is around 60-70%, depending on the project. What I personally like in Xamarin it's a) one language b) such easy and comfortable way of introducing new features and fixing bugs.

If you have a bug in the logic, you fix it in the Core, and boom it's fixed in 3 apps. Once you developed a feature for iOS (or Android), boom, it's ready for all platforms. Just add the UI part (UI logic is in the core as well).

One of the disadvantages was app size, but nowadays Uber app is 80+ Mb (swift-based). Nobody cares.

If you have to use different APIs on different platforms - fine. Totally possible.

IDE is fine, I'd say much better than XCode.

There is also a problem that people mistaken Xamarin and Xamarin.Forms. Forms is different technology and as of now (2.3) I would recommend it only to the limited set of scenarios.

To clarify, I am Microsoft MVP. But I am MVP cause I like Xamarin and I use it every day. Not otherwise.

I think you have the backwards: the right's instance that there is no evidence is the unreasonable position.

IME arena doesn't really have a fixed definition. The term can and has been used to refer to something like an object stack or bump allocator, but also to something that supports deallocation and reallocation. The term goes back over 30 years and nothing specific has really stuck.

I think the most you can say of an arena is that it's usually a contiguous region of memory from which smaller allocations are made, and which can be efficiently freed as a whole. An arena may only support fixed-size allocations, or a range of sizes; it may or may not support deallocation. However, in many cases it's natural to require multiple regions to satisfy all allocation requests for a particular context (task, generation, etc), so don't be surprised if an implementation labels a collection of contiguous regions an "arena".

The term pool is similarly ambiguous, but usually implies support for deallocation and recycling of memory. It does not necessarily imply a contiguous region, but that's a natural optimization in a language like C.

Slab is less ambiguous because it has a very specific origin in SunOS--allocation and deallocation of fixed-size, often typed objects (to optimize initialization).
Phones usually have fixed-function low-power hardware dedicated to listening ambiently for phrases like "Ok Google." So yes, it is technically always on, but no, it's not understanding what you're saying or uploading it to the cloud.
