People need to stop saying this. It doesn't matter if Level 4 specifies this, and someone claims a certain car successfully passes the test. No car in AI infancy is going to be 100%. Drivers must absolutely be prepared to take over in under half a second at all times. That's not likely to change for 30-50 years.

I found it quite socially irresponsible for him to mention during the keynote that it would be fine for his 80+ year old mother to continue driving when she becomes no longer capable of managing the vehicle on her own. It might be perfectly fine in a few decades. Not by 2020 though.
Right, but even upon ejecting I still retain the ability to build/start/test with one command, the only difference is that the build/start/test scripts become static

Sodium lamps are much less objectionable because their spectral spikes are at much longer wavelength.

It is popular, and has been used by many apps for years at this point (Ionic supports it as part of the framework). The key thing is not to change the app radically with an update that bypasses the App store. Of course Apple will never say anything since they like to leave their ToS vague enough where they can do whatever they like.
Knowing that it is possible for a representation to be falsified (what you describe the ad network as knowing) is very far from knowing that it is false (the branch of the standard you appear to be appealing to argue a lack of right-to-rely.)

I switched to Vivaldi as my default browser 6+ months ago after new-Opera became such an overwhelming disappointment I felt I had to abandon what it had become after fifteen or more years of use. Vivaldi definitely has the old Opera spirit, but not the performance. On original Opera I could have hundreds of tabs open, in Vivaldi I can have 60? not such a big deal, right!? well it's partly that, partly just a constant reminder that software has become horribly inefficient even with scads of system resources - Opera always felt extremely small and efficient. Vivaldi feels big and heavy like emacs (that I also love and use) but less performant.

I feel that came off negatively! Vivaldi is a fantastic modern browser.

> Suppose that typically 5% of the client connections are actually active, and the other 95% are idle with no pending reads or writes.

I suppose the intent is to then use that 95% memory savings for other work.

So what's the point of making this optimization? The system is going to be hugged to death if the number of client connections approaches 100%, because the system will not have enough available memory.

If 100% client connections is causing memory problems, rather than keeping a pool of buffers so that inactive client connections have less footprint, it seems like a better solution is to decrease the number of available client connections. Then, provision more servers or more memory if more client connections are required.

The signal fell off a cliff: when I used it 10 years ago in uni, it was actually useful (and the algorithm did a better job of showing things you wanted to see/there were less ads of all types); now it's mostly a proxy for emails about parties and spotify/hulu/tinder login.

I think Facebook has failed to notice the precipitous drop, because they can only A/B test small changes, and none of the thousand cuts seemed like much damage.

Now they lack the magic to get new users hooked, are transparently a psychologically-manipulative ad-network, and are wondering why engagement is dropping or young users are finding new platforms.

I call it stats blindness: you optimize for a proxy, and end up walking slowly downhill.

For those who don't know, the Open Build Service is a project mainly maintained by the openSUSE community. Aside from building all of the packages for openSUSE and SUSE's enterprise distributions, it also can build Ubuntu, Debian, Arch Linux, Red Hat and Fedora packages. It also has a collaboration system which is the primary way that openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise are built.

Whatever the merits of that argument might be in the general case, using an extension which expressly advertises its function to include falsifying clicks to mislead ad networks makes it hard to make the argument in that context.

TL;DR I experienced massive burnout after ridiculous working hours and a broken contract

I experienced terrible burnout around a year ago that I'm still working to get over.

I had taken a pay cut to join a startup with the promise (contractually) that I receive a raise to market value + bonus after 12 months. The latter 6 of those months were spent working 16 hour days ramping up to a massive launch. There were multiple times were I was in the office for 40 hours straight. Throughout this entire period I was locked in and producing top quality code.

A few months after launch I approached my boss about the contractual raise + bonus. After blowing me off for a few weeks I had a meeting with the president and CEO where I was told that I would not be receiving either because I was not coming into the office by 10 AM. Not only that, but they told me they didn't appreciate the amount of work I put in, nor the fact that I had barely seen my family and friends in that the period because "no one asked you to do that." Mind you, our CTO had quit with 4 months to go until launch so I had taken some of his responsibilities, and I was the sole developer on Android, and one of two for the backend. All the while the feature requests kept pouring in.

Within a week I was bedridden, and I stayed that way for the next 3 months. I've been slowly recovering since then, but I'm not sure I'll ever be the same again.

I know I could've sued for the money, but it was the lack of even a basic appreciation that did me in.

Some people have told me that I have no one to blame but myself. I sort of agree with them, however, I know that if I would've gotten my raise and bonus I would've been fine.
I imagine the person putting up the link would disagree with them. What's your point?
I could've given it a try if it was opensource. But because it's closed I immediately classify it as vaporware, and as the browser is one of the two centers of my daily computing (the other being emacs), I won't invest in vaporware. I believe that opensourcing is the best choice of the company behind this.

The sponsorship itself is not an ad, nor is the stadium. But signs posted at the stadiums indicating the sponsorship could be considered ads. Likewise in the case of the website, the text indicating that the site is sponsored, which will take the user to the sponsor's site when clicked, is an ad. Thus, it is not unreasonable that an ad blocker would block it, even if it isn't "intrusive" advertising.
> there must be some standard for the good

And there is: good is that which improves the reproductive fitness of the entities that practice it.

> For whatever reason, there was no Big Bang, and things just popped into existence. Would there be no morality in such a universe (because we didn't evolve it)?

That's right. (To be precise, there might be morality, but it would be whatever the entity that created this universe decided it should be.)

> I find that very hard to believe.

Why? We actually have some data points because we actually create such universes ourselves nowadays. We call them computer games or virtual reality environments, and the moral rules at work in some of them are very different from the real world. The poster child for this is Grand Theft Auto, where the disconnect between the moral rules of that world and ours causes some people a great deal of cognitive dissonance.

As long as we're doing thought experiments here's one for you: suppose God told you that it was OK to force people to eat their own children. Would that make it in fact OK? Or is there some moral standard that transcends God that makes it not OK to do certain things even if God says it's OK? (BTW, in case you don't recognize it, this question was first raised by Plato in a famous dialogue called Euthyphro. It's worth reading. And BTW2, if you think that this example is too extreme you should read Jeremiah 19:9.)

I've been using Vivaldi now for over a year (since early beta days), and finding it a great experience.

A couple of things I really like - (1) that the browser chrome changes to suit the colour scheme of the website that you have loaded when flicking through tabs. Makes it really easy to identify what site you are on especially if you have scrolled down past the header. (2) that they have a slider on the bottom toolbar for zooming in/out of websites. For this old guy with failing eyesight, that is a killer feature that I use all the time.

Happy to also see that the number of sites reporting "You are not using an approved browser" has reduced to nearly 0 when browsing via Vivaldi, but that is more a problem for lazy web designers who only create sites specifically for a particular rendering engine, I guess.

EDIT: Interesting Observation - I remember that in the early days, their main selling point was their command line functionality for power users. That was what made me change over back then, although ironically I never ever use their CLI tool set at all these days, and just use the mouse like always.

I note that they have downplayed the CLI functionality on their current website, so perhaps it wasn't such a drawcard for other users either?!?

But... Is using a phone on the bus a problem?

Buses (to many people) are a place better off without a lot of conversations going on. That used to mean books or staring out the window. Phones seem to offer a legitimate improvement here.

Now, if you're talking about somewhere like bars, that might be different. But I mostly see face-in-phone on buses, and people talking at bars. (YMMV, anecdata, etc.)
In fact, the same bug exists in XP, but the NULL page is mapped in XP which is why it does not BSoD. So far I have not seen writes, only reads.

Update: it looks like the NULL pointer is accessed several times in the code. They mostly are 16-bit accesses, so it is probably not addresses. They seems to be in font-related code.

How I Made $6,750 in Two Weeks by Creating a Boring Courthouse Kiosk App
From my point of view web versions of applications generally offer a worse experience compared to the native desktop versions that have to be installed.

I suppose the closer the browser gets to just being an operating system running in a pseudo-virtual-machine the less crappy the non-desktop-experience will become. On the other hand we're already approaching absurd levels of JS required as a download for some web sites. I could easily envision, in some dystopian future, a scenario where hundreds of MB (compressed) of JavaScript or more are required for an especially loathesome resource eating web "app".

Is it really better to have to download 10s or 100s of MB of JS every time (yes, yes, caching helps) you want to use an application instead of a one-time install of a couple of GB?

Edit for clarity: I'm responding to the part of your comment about web apps "eating" the install-based model of desktop apps, specifically, not to the broader topic of mobile apps (as clearly there's a difference in the model, packaging of applications, etc. there).
Doesn't the in-flight turbulence of the aircraft shake the wines? I was always told never to shake a bottle of wine. Doesn't this defeat the whole point?
I wouldn't put it quite so starkly as "completely... wrong". It was a jumbled time for the movements and sects of Protestantism.

Perfectionism was a valid strain of Methodism, see Wesley's sermon: http://www.umcmission.org/Find-Resources/John-Wesley-Sermons.... There are PhD's thesis I could point you to if interested (look through Notre Dame's archives).

Sainthood of the believer is a bit different from perfectionism, as perfectionism was the final stage of the christian journey in some strains of Methodism (vs. the predestined state).... but it all got a little messy in that era.

Regarding that it's true both baptists and methodists originated well before the 2nd great awakening, but both certainly saw big growth due to it.

All of that fun history stuff aside, the Oneida Community was clearly off in terms of normal Christianity theology and practice (and the article points to many examples of poor discernment). They made a nice brand of silverware though!
But that makes the whitespace changes literally invisible. Reviewable strikes a good balance, where it will show you whitespace changes that appear in diff hunk contexts, and also explicitly call out when it's skipping a chunk of whitespace-only changes, and you can click on that callout to ask it to show you those whitespace changes anyway.
surprisingly however, video as a medium has exploded recently and with the advent of 'live' and popularity of stories on instagram, Snapchat is in a good spot.

10 Reasons I Love create-react-app
I still don't want NYC to have my data and I do think the onus is on them to show they will be responsible custodians because they screwed it up in the past

As I pointed out in the first place, with a public entity like NYC you can file FOIA requests to find out what they actually did to mitigate the problem and ensure it doesn't recur. Is it enough? Opinions will vary, but reliably ensuring better security practices in the future will require some sort of rule, if only to identify the standard their IT operations need to comply with.

Meanwhile, the city is still expected to respond to complaints from residents about the cab service and to carry out its existing oversight functions which are almost certainly mandated by law. Uber's right to operate a transport service is subject to the same laws as every other transit service, so there's no legal basis for them to have a veto over the city contingent on the city meeting some (undefined) standard of reliable data custody. That would be giving a private entity (Uber) authority over the data security policy of NYC, which is an absurdity.

Certainly their opinion matters, as does yours as a voter, or even (very indirectly) as someone who chooses to drop some of your tourist $ in NYC or not. But having an opinion which you attempt to everage at election time (occasionally alone or more commonly through donating to some lobbying group to do it for you) is very different from a company unilaterally declining to comply with a rule and then claiming to be doing so in order to uphold your interests rather than their own.

Also, the point here is that Uber is not a cab ride

Of course it is. You summon a vehicle to transport you in comfort from A to B and you pay on arrival. Summoning them via an app rather than via a telephone call or a wave down is a mere operational detail. You're still hiring a car, for the time being cars are driven by people, and the law in New York is that commercial drivers can't work more than 60 hours a week (because of the increased risks of accidents due to driver fatigue, which is backed up by a lot of data) and have to be able to provide work logs on request.

The existence of a difference tells you nothing about its degree. From the point of view of the customer and driver, there is virtually no functional difference between Uber or any pre-existing taxi company. The significantly different business, dispatch and billing practices don't alter the fact that it's a ride-for-hire service.
