If a site declares that you should not access it without disabling your adblocker, and they go as far as to explicitly try to prevent your access with direct messaging (interstitials, pop-up/light boxes, etc.), yet the user then works around those protections and accesses it - wouldn't that qualify as illegal access in some form?
It's happened to me, but I don't think it has to do with the number.

The biggest problem, I think (not sure) is that queuing is client side so latency matters.

Thank you for fixing the misleading information from this article.

I've dabbled with this and I find the hardest part is deciding what's important enough to memorize. Most rarely needed facts can be looked up as needed. Commonly used information will get enough practice naturally without spaced repetition. You have to decide what's important even though you don't practice it naturally.

The obvious exception is learning a language. And if you're in school then this is decided for you.
At my company (not SpotHero) we literally call them Support Heroes. And they have done some truly heroic things for our customers. Some of the stories can be truly emotional.

Going a step further, as someone in marketing I suspect they are likely one of our company's larger contributors to the value and awareness of our brand. It is very hard to quantify, but I don't think there is a single person I work with who wouldn't agree that they add value and are not a cost center.
The big advantage is that family (and community) usually cares about you, whereas bureaucrats care most about following rules. Because of this, family can usually do more than just give you a few cheques.

The existence of spaced repetition also shows how dysfunctional educational systems (both public and private) are at making evidence-based improvements. If a method with such a clear overwhelming advantage at the stated goal isn't incorporated by schools, what hope is there that they'll make improvements where the evidence is hazier?

“I have to thank Jack Ma for creating all these job opportunities,” said Jin.

I really admire the entrepreneurial spirit in China, it has a long and enduring history. But it has also historically pitted the merchant class against the ruling class. That is a natural consequence of the different impact on day to day lives of the citizens a businessman can make versus a politician. So merchants develop an aura of being the source of good, and for politicians who depend on having that aura, that can be threatening.
This was sad to see. I work in their building and there were a lot of people crying and unhappy and venting in the lobby.

You know, I keep hearing this as justification for tracking. It's been going on for about 20 years now and I still see terrible ads. I don't think the ads I see online are any better targeted than ones I see in People magazine at my doctor's office.

I spent a few years moving around to big cities for tech jobs. Only thing I really discovered is that I strongly dislike living in big cities.

Grew up in a small college town. Great quality of life, affordable (if you have a university job or something supporting them...), very little suburban sprawl, I only have to drive 10-20 minutes to get to the bar district to do something. Sure, I can't go to world renown art centers or find some hyper specific activities/businesses that can usually only succeed in higher population densities, but I'd only be a few hours away from them if needed.

Lots of pluses for me. Hope to take a significant pay cut and shoot for a stable job someday in one of these places. The friends I grew up with make 1/3rd what I do, but they all own homes and seemingly enjoy a higher quality of life. My current solution is save up a nice nest-egg and re-specialize into something else. Haven't decided what yet.
My physics diploma says that you're not contributing any useful arguments to the discussion at hand.
Ordinarily I would agree with you except for what .json is: a JavaScript Object. Or, more correctly, its serialized-to-text form. Parsing it is a matter of invoking an extremely common function built into every JavaScript implementation in every browser, and likely optimized to death.

This is one of those weird cases where, despite obj being a simpler format on paper, it would likely be slower to parse due to having to hand-roll the parser in JavaScript and not use the browser's native built-in parser instead.
I used to do index funds. Then I went looking for an active portfolio manager. After a few years I found one, he was good, but 6mo in he switched jobs and left for another career.

The next guy wasn't good and eventually didn't want to actively manage the account. I kept looking until this year when I found fractalgo, which is used by large institutional investors to trade through science without emotion and second-guessing.

Downside is you needed to be a qualified investor.

I called up the owner curious about how the fractal tech worked and found out he was setting up a service for everyone, not just the big guys.

After some research I moved my IRAs left over from previous 401Ks to a custodian that can do directed investments + broker and let the automated system go.

Couldn't be happier. No humans required once set up, and it keeps growing like a weed while I sleep.

Do your own research for what works for you and seek it out. You will find it, eventually.

I wouldn’t say React is “hacked together”. Perhaps you are referring to the React ecosystem? Facebook doesn’t build single-page apps with React, so naturally it doesn’t provide solutions for routing and similar concerns, so there is more churn as people are figuring this out together.
You can support ad-based sites with either tool by whitelisting a site.

uBlock requires you to do this explicitly for each site you want to support through ad revenue. I suspect most novice users will never do this.

ABP is now using their user base as leverage to extract payment from some sites to show ads by default. I don't think that is a good idea at first blush, but there may be arguments for the practice I haven't considered.

I'm sure the advertisers would rather have ads than not, so I'd argue just the opposite - this will work for advertisers. And you can't block arbitrary <p> and <img> tags, so I don't understand your second assertion.
Come on people. It's so much simpler:

return (
<div>
<h2>hello</h2>
{
location.query.home
? <div>foo</div>
: <div>bar</div>
}
</div>
)

Or just replace that with a one-liner like, and put the respective code where it belongs:

{location.query.home ? this.renderHomeStuff() : this.renderEtcStuff()}

And simple ifs are obvious:

<div>
<h2>hey</h2>
{foo && <div>foobar</div>}
</div>

Always strive to make your render methods simpler.
That probably depends a lot on which country you live in.

I don't believe land is taxed highly enough so the system encourages monopolising land to appropriate value added by labour that should be going to workers.

I think right now we have a situation were money makes money and selling your labour doesn't, in the average case not in the "I'm a senior engineer at google" case.

I just don't see how this ends well. Workers struggling to get wage rises at all and yet 5% per anum return for those with capital. We've just had Trump and yet here everyone is basically saying "I can get further ahead by playing the system".

It's not looking good.

I'm not really ready to call Nvidia the new Intel. Nvidia seems like such a volatile company and I have no idea why. I just feel like I could wake up tomorrow and they could be gone.

As far as I can see, none. There was some discussion recently about Secret coming back into vogue, but that seems to have fizzled in the past fortnight.

The sad thing is, a lot of these apps are really successful in the outset, but then end up burned as the companies try, heavy handedly, to monetise.

As much as the startup world sees themselves as morally above the like of Google who will sell out customers, many startups seem to sell out both their customers and their product, making fundamentally incompatible changes with what they were built on in the pursuit of cash.

I agree with you, and I definitely do not blame Qiang on choosing his way. I just miss him as Yii2 contributor and visionaire because that could make a real competitor to Laravel some day, in terms of community, and popularity across US and Europe. Right now Yii2 seems to move in direction of becoming a niche framework for Eastern Europe and parts of China, instead.
Not too surprising. From a technology and hacker standpoint, I had a run-in with one of their earlier developers that left a really bad taste in my mouth.

An ex-engineer from Yik Yak reached out while we were hiring a while back.

They proceeded to supply a .zip file of their entire source code repository (yes, all of it). They said it was outdated now so it seemed okay in their eyes.

This included all of the dot files for configuration: keys, passwords, email addresses, Amazon instances where databases were at, and more.

I didn't ask for this .zip file, I was simply looking for some examples of experience.

Needless to say, it definitely made me look at Yik Yak differently.

That's not true for domestic currency bonds. There's no chance of default as a sovereign can always print more of it's own currency. Sovereign yields are driven by inflation expectations and what investors need to earn on excess of that.
If Nvidia are looking to supplant Intel, I think they key, weirdly, is i/o. In a sense, GPU acceleration of general purpose computation is just a specific case of the more general case of distributed computing (albeit the computers are extremely 'close'). For embarrassingly parallel workloads, i/o is not an issue; the data and computations can be batched, distributed and no further communication required (until you collect the results).

But for mixed, semi-sequential/semi-parallel workloads, I/O becomes the bottleneck. Having to retrieve intermediate results, combine and then redistribute can eat up your gains from parallelisation. It will be interesting to see if Nvidia start pushing for a new standard to replace PCIe, and maybe invest in low-latency, high throughput networking R&D. Who knows? Maybe they'll just build some kind of networking functionality in to their GPUs directly, so data can be transferred NVRAM -> NVRAM without having to travel up and down the stack (until they need to interact with userspace; once on the way in and once on the way out).

Given there are RDMA adapters that can manage ~20ns latency already, it would be interesting to see what could be achieved before we start pushing up against the laws of physics. Even at the physical layer, my understanding is that most networking fibre optics manage about 60% the speed of light.

So, just to make a wild prediction: within the next year, Nvidia will acquire a HPC network adapter company (e.g. Mellanox).

All else equal, education is good, but education isn't going to make everyone into healthcare policy wonks, nor is that necessarily a good use of everyone's time. Which... is a problem when the programs are designed so that you more or less have to be a healthcare policy wonk to understand them.

Obamacare is unpopular in part because it's incredibly complex. On the political side that makes it an easy target, because you can blame everything on it, and some of that will stick. But it also makes it unpopular for substantive reasons, in that people really hate the experience of interacting with it. You rarely get people who like Obamacare; its supporters, at best, think it's less bad than what was there previously.

I follow the area pretty closely, am quite left-wing politically, clearly think it's better than the alternative, and nonetheless when I was signing up for a marketplace plan last year, even I found the experience frustrating and complicated. You need to understand a pretty big range of things to just understand the baseline terminology and market setup: the subtleties of in-and out-of-network coverage (did you know that in-network hospitals can have out-of-network doctors?), the different kinds of deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums, the subsidy schemes, etc. Then you have to learn how to read the policy documents of each plan in light of this new terminology you've learned, and compare them in order to act as an informed market participant. The healthcare.gov marketplace gives a few tools to try to simplify comparisons, but the overall experience is still overwhelming, and I'm not even sure whether I made a good choice in the end.

I think there's a good argument that simpler, universal programs are actually an easier sell. Centrist Democrats view policy-wonk type programs as "more moderate", because they contain various means-testing and market mechanisms, and believe this will make them an easier sell than universalist entitlements, which are seen as too left-wing. But I'm not sure that's actually true, if you take into account that people really fucking hate policy wonks and their programs, while universalist entitlements like Social Security and Medicare are popular. Frank Pasquale makes that argument at a bit more length here, arguing that of the two early 20th century traditions that the Democrats to some extent inherit, populism and progressivism, they've erred too much in the direction of the latter, promoting "technocratic alliance between corporate and government experts". https://balkin.blogspot.co.uk/2016/11/rebuilding-health-care...
As far as I know, the EmDrive is still considered controversial and it is not certain whether and how it works. It is interesting because it could cause a revolution to how we view impulse, so it might be a colossal thing just as much as it might be complete nonsense. So I think the comparison is disingenous.
Is this sustainable and comprehensive?

Parts like disallowing '_' at the start or end of a method because some browsers have dangerous methods don't fill me with confidence that this is a fool proof solution.

It seems like a compiler or iframe would be not only more comprehensive but also wouldn't butcher the language in ways that would make most code need to be adapted.
> I have never experienced peer pressure to use Google

If you read again, you will see that I was making a combined argument about Google and Facebook. For Google mostly the network effect applies, peer pressure maybe not at all. (edit: Google search does get better the more people use it, though. This could be considered hidden peer pressure.)

> and have been asked to message someone on Facebook maybe twice.

So? Obviously it's not equally popular in all areas and demographics.

> It sounds like you just like both services a lot and want the government to step in so you can have your cake and eat it too.

Well, people seem to forget that all it will take from Intel is to make an ASIC like Nervana's (hint, hint:which they acquired) and suddenly Nvidia's in serious trouble.
Isn't everything just pushing costs further down the road? Eventually you'll have to get a new machine anyway. If the current one works for you, it's kind of crazy to reject it just because you'll have to buy something else in a few years.

I fully expect that some day Toyota will stop making my car. But I'm perfectly happy driving it anyway, because it's still being made today, and it was made when I bought it. Does that make sense? Because saying "The Corolla will stop being made some day in the future, so I'm going to buy a Camaro now" doesn't make any sense at all to me.
Anecdotical I know but on mac, when using velocityjs to change the css transform value (translate, scale and rotate) of 100+ spans, Safari is faster and the animation is smoother than Chrome. I've tested that on an imac, a macbook pro and a mac pro. Also, they don't mention in the benchmark you've linked if they're benchmarking the windows version or the mac version of Chrome. The windows version is faster in quite a few cases in my experience.

Finally, while Chrome definitely has a better html5 compliance, there's one thing I hate about Chrome. It doesn't keep the state of the previous page when using the back button unlike Firefox, Safari and IE. See this: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2879
Adding an optional buy button to my Chrome Extension has made me $0.59 so far, so technically that's my best.

My friend has made about $650 off of his AMD investment so far though and is thinking of moving all of it into Micron.
