The major use I know of is finding symmetries in other search problems.

Take your problem in Constraint Programming / Mixed Integer Programming / SAT / SMT, generate a parse tree, turn that parse tree into a graph, and find symmetries of that graph.

If done in the right way, symmetries of the graph are symmetries of the original problem, and knowledge of these symmetries can be used to avoid redundant symmetric search. This is done all the time in combinatorial search systems.

One problem for many other real-world problems is it is much more common to want "almost symmetries" (for various definitions of almost symmetry). It turns out this is a much harder problem, and algorithms for "pure" graph isomorphism can't be easily modified, to solve the 'almost symmetry' problem.

I don't mind at all! Happy to oblige. It was a 405nm (violet) 5mW diode laser, housed in a pointer of a sort that's sold cheaply on eBay [1]. It was focused through a spherical lens taken from an old scanner and another from a broken magnifying glass. With such a short focal length, it should've been very hard to injure myself, but I had my head quite close to the bench and was also messing with a couple of mirrors. Given such a golden opportunity, Murphy rarely fails to oblige, and in this case he obliged me right in the eye.

(The idea there, if you're curious, was to build a light collector with a relatively wide incidence angle that'd focus the beam onto a mostly decapsulated violet LED reverse-biased to act as a photodiode and tied to the base of an NPN transistor, so as to switch a GPIO on my entertainment center Raspberry Pi and use the laser pointer as a kind of remote control. The circuit worked quite well when illuminated, but a ~1mm target is hard to hit from ten feet away, hence the messing about with focusing optics.)

I don't have a detailed characterization of the injury because I'm rather overdue for an optometrist's appointment, but later experiments with the same configuration (and goggles!) showed that, so focused, the beam would deform and start to burn black ABS plastic within a few seconds, and took no perceptible time to burn a hole in a sheet of black construction paper, in both cases producing damage in a radius well under a millimeter - I found that, unless placed precisely in the focal plane, the beam was too widely spread even to raise smoke from the paper. The effect on my retina would therefore have had to be the same sort of closely localized heating, a hypothesis borne out by the effects I observed to result.

Beyond the pain already described (which lasted a good couple of hours), those effects included the click sound I mentioned, which I believe to have been produced by the sudden vaporization of a small volume of aqueous humor adjacent to the retina, and a quite noticeable but thankfully non-foveal bright green floater which did not cease to be perceptible until about a month had gone by. Whether this latter is the result of the injury healing, as I gather such minor retinal injuries often do, or rather of my visual cortex having grown a new filter, I won't know until my next slit-lamp exam.

You could do the same thing with a single dedicated virtual machine.

The problem with classic dedicated servers is hardware... when a disk (or other component) fails it can be a little nightmare.
One could - from a narrow perspective[1] - argue that diesel engines on plant oil would be carbon-neutral but not that they are emission free. In fact: (older) diesel engines are being banned from cities (e.g. Antwerp, Belgium) not because of CO2-emissions but due to emissions of particulates (and NOx). CO2 is a global problem, but particulates and NOx are local problems (and hence more likely to trigger local political action).

[1] it is often argued that biomass/biofuel is not entirely carbon-neutral due to several reasons: the inherent lifecycle means some CO2 is in the atmosphere at any point; production is often based on CO2-emitting processes ...
Secondly some other issues pop up as well: (indirect) land use change, competition with food ...

> The alternative solutions aren't great. $36 a year to store a couple megabytes of data is outlandish. If you'd like to transition us to this from Dropbox, the price must be drastically reduced.

I've found AgileBits a bit weird in some of the decisions. It's clear that selling a password manager for $65 is no longer working well for the company, and so the subscriptions were introduced (IIRC, shared vaults exist only in the subscription). But as the OP says in the forum post, the subscription prices are quite high from a value standpoint when people have been using Dropbox or iCloud or something else all along. I've seen that AgileBits is also a bit slow to learn from customer feedback (like the MAS-only fiasco a few years ago). As more and more apps move toward a subscription model than a one-time pay-for-a-major-version model, I foresee more customer backlash on prices.

Edit: This backlash against subscription has already happened on the app store for Facetune and Infuse, to name two apps.

Yes and I already acknowledged it when I said he was "possibly the best economist India had". How did I qualify he was "the best economist"? Because of his reforms in the 90s which were spearheaded by the then Prime Minister Narasimha Rao. Would he have been able to conduct the same reforms if he was the Prime Minister instead of Narasimha Rao? Never.

As I said earlier, economists have a place. He was great as a Finance Minister and RBI Governor. But the moment he became a policy decision maker (rather than just a policy maker) he failed miserably. Do you understand this basic difference? This is the reason I say that economists cannot take policy decisions. They can make the right policies if they are dictated by someone higher up the chain but are incapable to take the same decisions if they are given a chance.

The evidence for that is the GST reform. GST was the brainchild of Manmohan Singh and his Planning Commission when he was the Prime Minister for 10 years. But he failed to get the damn reform passed in the Indian Parliament mainly because he did not know or understand political maneuvering. How is it that the same GST reform, which was Manmohan's brainchild, passed by Narendra Modi (who is his opponent) without any troubles?

It's not just linear interpolation, there's all sorts of clever edge detection going on as well.

I've been using Gecko-based browsers for... well, more or less since Gecko became a viable alternative to its predecessor (whatever the rendering engine in Netscape Communicator was called). I sometimes use Chromium for sites which insist on using a webkit/blink-based browser but I never stick around them for the simple reason that sites look better on Gecko than they do on Webkit/Blink, mostly due to (in my opinion) better font rendering in Gecko.

Note that I say Gecko, not Firefox. While I currently use Firefox I keep on switching between it and Seamonkey, what used to be the Mozilla suite. I run nightly builds for both, when one of the misbehaves I switch to the other until I get fed up with whatever bothers me in that build and switch back.

Chromium often is a bit quicker, especially in javascript-heavy sites, but it it a memory hog. It also looks rough around the edges, the user interface is not as configurable (overly large tabs and fonts in the UI are a constant annoyance) and it's normal (Linux) builds are more unstable than Firefox and Seamonkey nightly builds.

Firefox and Seamonkey used to have another advantage over Chromium in that it was possible (and easy) to run your own sync server. Now that the 'old' sync engine has been deprecated for good this advantage is gone due to the lack of a self-hosted 'new' sync engine. This means I have to make-do without a sync engine as don't see why I would give so much of my data to any company.

I use Firefox on both mobile and desktop, they've made massive strides recently and it now feels lighter and faster than Chrome, however there is some sort of memory leak in either Firefox and one of my (limited) extensions and it slows down slowly until it no longer is responsive and I need to restart it.

I too can't wait for Servo, although the reality is that it's still an experiment and is miles away from being anywhere near feature complete or compatible with the years worth of edge cases coded into Gecko, I wouldn't hold my breath on Firefox being based on Servo in the medium term, however Servo will find a use in quite a few niches where the content is much more controlled, courtesy of it's compatibility with the CEF.

And the tragedy is that Opera was the most innovative and light browser out of all of them. I used to run Opera on my old machine with 16 MB of RAM because it was literally the only browser that was usable.

Mouse gestures, tabs, integrated mail/rss/newsgroups client, and even a fricking web app platform for personal use made it the best browser then, and even now. It was always standards-compliant, but got a bad rap because of lazy designers who just tested in FF and IE and called it a day.

Opera Unite, in particular, the web app platform, was fantastic. They gave you a dynamic hostname with Opera and allowed you to run apps like photo albums and blogs straight from your browser (which had an embedded webserver if you enabled the feature), so people could publish their content completely decentralized, right from their computer and browser.

Well, if there's one thing to always keep in mind about technology and software, many things can go wrong in different ways for different people. For me, Firefox has always "just worked" too, but a response like that to the GP would've been completely useless.

For me, Google Chrome has always been a resource killer that's sluggish and consumes almost all system RAM (on 8GB total) with just 10 or 20 tabs. I see Firefox consuming a lot less with a few hundred tabs. While your response states your experience, it also sounds like you're meaning to say that Google Chrome is better solely because of your experience. So I don't see how such a response is helpful, overall.

The GPL in particular is fundamentally not compatible with the App Store re distribution clauses.

VLC for iOS being the precedent setting example from a few years back.

To answer your question directly, I'm not sure of cases where Apple will outright reject the initial submission of some OSS app - especially if you aren't totally up front about it. But clearly re VLC they will pull it once it is brought up (also leaving to distributing developer open to liability depending on how unhappy the contributors are)
You seem to be assuming that the conclusion is based on the data. This could just be an example of labeling.

You don't need irccloud to get persistence. There are many bouncers/proxies that let you connect from a device with flaky connections like a phone/laptop, as long as you have some always-connected machine where you can install things. Some popular ones are ZNC, Weechat, Quassel, Smuxi.

Quassel and Smuxi.im are GUI-based ones, where you can start them one one computer and connect from another. (I've never tried them, so can't say how they fare.)

I used ZNC for a while, that's a "pure bouncer" that just connects to your irc network and then you connect your client of choice to your ZNC. Simple and easy to set up, but not very featureful.

I recently switched to Weechat, which comes with a nice CLI interface, as well as letting you connect from regular IRC clients, or from special Weechat-clients (their own protocol which gives some more control I suppose). There's an HTML5 client https://www.glowing-bear.org/ that a lot of people like. I use the Android client https://github.com/ubergeek42/weechat-android#weechat-androi... a lot, it's very nice, though from my laptop I connect from Emacs's built in client (M-x erc). I run Weechat on a Raspberry Pi 1 that I had lying around, just connected it to my router, ran "apt install weechat weechat-plugins tmux" and set "tmux new-session -d weechat -s chat" to run on startup, and added a relay: http://www.weechat.org/files/doc/stable/weechat_user.en.html...

"We need people who can write segfault free C++ code" is wishful thinking - as our experience with software vulnerabilities show, even the very best engineers carefully writing and reviewing small security focused code do occasionally get buffer overflows.

Note that the statement isn't "we need more people who can write segfault free C/C++ code" - the assertion is that there aren't any of them, that no specialists can do that.

> Four processors in a watch?

Four cores, which makes a difference.

> what's the battery life?

It might not be as bad as could be feared, specifically regarding the CPU at idle anyway. A lot of modern CPUs support turning cores individually on/off (or at least into very low power sleep states) as needed and if the OS scheduler is bright enough then taking advantage of this can be a lot more power efficient than trying to fiddle around with variable clock rates. There might be a performance hit for single one-thread tasks of course as per-core performance might be low, but at times when you care (while in active use, interacting with an app) there will be at least three distinct tasks going on: core function management, display management, and at least one user task. While the watch is idle there will just be one active task most of the time so only one core needs to be powered up (of none most of the time, with device management tasks and user apps that respond to events/notifications only waking up on interrupt).

Having said that, having to charge it at least once most days is my only major complaint with the MS Band that I wear most of the time. It would be interesting to see how well this manages in that regard.
I don't think many people saw the decline of Yahoo or MySpace coming.

Companies can very quickly become unpopular. They will exist for another decade or so before being bought for a cheap price. I'm very certain it will happen to Google and Facebook just because so few companies dominate a market for more than 20 years or so, especially if there are no large start up costs.

However, that doesn't mean one company will take over what Google or Facebook do. It could as well be companies doing something else, but taking away the main revenue streams.
Unfortunately that's only superficially true. You have to care about GC interop, unwind & debug dwarf data, implementing part of the ABI in the frontend, and of course the occasional bugs when you exercise code path that clang does not.

Because of this, enabling a new backend is a substantial amount of work even if the instruction selection/generation is indeed taken care of for you.

Before each call to select, you'll have to FD_ZERO the fd set(s), then individually FD_SET each fd you're interested in.

If that's a large number of fds, then that's quite some overhead.
Being in similar position I'd say if you want to earn London rates you'll have to move to London. There is a reason why companies in London hire people from Europe and that's because they won't be paid London wages... Having said that you will see much less money staying in your pocket once you move to London, it's horribly expensive city. And if you have family it becomes even more expensive..

People do earn a lot when they find a niche - in example trading software. There is lots of money in trading (i.e. Forex) and trading software which is low latency type of software. If you go mainstream you will earn what mainstream earns, think outside of the box.

From another perspective in the very moment you start specialising you might find yourself out of work when your niche disappears. So it's always a chase for holy grail and there is none - take risk, invest your time, be different and you'll get paid more :-)
