It didn't work.

And given that the solution to Google "stealing" a site's AMP traffic is that site just stops supporting AMP, the "stealing" argument doesn't hold a lot of water. If I'm a small publisher, Google caches taking page hits on popular topics instead of my server is a boon, not a hindrance.
According the article you just linked, San Antonio was on the list of cities that Google was still committed to with a separate list of paused/canceled cities that San Antonio isn't on.
I clearly understand what negative temperature is: if somebody squeezed an amount of energy out of a system, it's temperature drops. If somebody squeezed energy from a system at arbitrary zero point at temperature scale, then system temperature is below zero: system needs energy to return back to zero. Zero point at Kelvin scale is chosen when a system has no kinetic motion. But system at 0°K still has lot of energy, which can be released. I'm talking about energy of "hot" vacuum, which causes Casimir effect. This energy can do some mechanical work even at 0°K, so system still have some energy.

It looks like there's been a resolution to the issue of copyright assignment that was preventing RISC-V support in GCC.

> In order to write libraries that do I/O properly that include both Synchronous and Asynchronous methods, maintainers have to write two separate implementations of the same logic, which is a bit of a pain.

A solution to this that I am particularly proud of can be found in the Nim programming language. It is a macro that transforms a single procedure into a synchronous and asynchronous procedure[1].

Whatever you think of theology in general, here is the sort that Newton did: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaac_Newton's_occult_studies#...

I think it's fair to say that Newton's work on it was a bet that paid off poorly.

Insulting to theology or to alchemy? Alchemy is basically chemistry done with a strong philosophical framework based in the thinking of Paracelsus and Hermes Trismegistos. "Making gold" is just a naive interpretation - it was research concerned about transformation of materials. When the underlying philosophy was abandoned it turned into modern chemistry. (The word "alchemy" has the same root as "chemistry".)

You can of course argue the underlying hermetic philosophy was BS - but it was and is no better or worse than theology.
the first application you can provide (maybe as the project sample app) is to observe one file and sync it when changed.

most people I know that uses dropbox use it with expensive media workflows that are extremely slow to adopt anything.
I have been Linux for a few years, OSX for a few years and now back to Linux

- i3 is great, better than tiling WMs for OS X, including amethyst.

- I didn't notice lack of Microsoft Office - Import to google docs and LibreOffice have been more than sufficient.

- Gimp and inkspace are the biggest difference. Photoshop and Illustrator are much better. On the other hand, I disliked spammy "Adobe creative cloud" on Mac.

- Installing many dev tools is easier. brew was much worse than pacman/yaourt in Arch Linux.

- For many tools mentioned in article (mail, music, calendar) web interface have been better for me, even on Mac

- If you want to use nice new things happening in 2016, like train deep learning models or play VR you need a PC.
The application wouldn't have a way to see that. If you select "When Using" it would just not get any geo info (or even backgrounding time) when not in active use.

If it isn't a pain point already, then by definition you're solving a problem that isn't there.

Ruby has a similar pattern. It's a pretty popular language.

Correlation is not causation. Having return expressions does not make or break a language.

Python and JS do have return expressions in the context of lambdas.

I'm not very fond of this pattern in untyped languages (Ruby, Perl) because it can lead to accidental returns, but I'm pretty happy with having it in a typed language.
Things don't cost more or less based on what people can afford.
I'm saying that even if the measure they use is imperfect, I wouldn't be surprised if "real productivity", however you define it, is also down.
Here's [1] some information on how EU views the wholesale pricing.

"With regard to caps for data, the general approach introduces a declining glidepath, with the maximum charge starting from €0.01/MB on in mid-2017 and dropping gradually to €0.005/MB in mid-2021."

So if I understand right, when I use 1GB of data on my roaming trip next summer, my operator might end up paying 10€ for the local operator, but is not allowed to transfer the cost to me.

I don't really see how this can work out, unless there will be quite heavy data caps for the free roaming.

I hope they can get the power companies to get rid of those far uglier electrical substations too.

People want infrastructure, not the infrastructure to support the infrastructure.

This same NIMBY attitude is what kept me from getting faster U-Verse service in my SF neighborhood, because they didn't want the (much smaller) U-Verse cabinets on the street... which left me with Comcast as my only high speed internet choice (with unreliable service -- 10 minute outages 3 or 4 times a week). I was so far from the CO that DSL was around 800kbit. (to be fair, the Comcast problem could have been due to poor interior wiring, but TV worked, so the landlord was unwilling to do anything about it).
I disagree with all of your statements.

Again - the 90% tax bracket in the 1960's applied to income - not capital gains.

Ergo - a reduction in that income tax bracket would do nothing to incentive M&A activity wherein surpluses would be taxed as capital gains (i.e. at a lower rate than income).

In fact - the reduction in income tax breaks would have the opposite effect you describe - it would encourage companies to pay more regular income, as opposed to M&A type transactions which will be taxed via capital gains.

Second - M&A activity does not inherently have anything to do with 'short term' or 'long term'. M&A is just as much a strategic activity as anything else. You are a ware that 'HN' is part of YCombinator, at the very heart of this kind of activity, right?

Do you think that YC - which creates companies that will likely fail, or be bought - are an example of 'short term' and 'myopic' thinking? Seriously? No way.

The very site you're writing your words upon is probably the best example of how important M&A and financial transactions are to the health of an economic ecosystem.
Yes. It's also hard to know whether "they" didn't try "hard enough" to get "better" curves or whether "they" didn't know any better(†) or whether "they" intentionally made these "bad" curves. That's why I don't want to call it a backdoor.

(†) We know that historically NSA had secret cryptography knowledge, the most famous example being differential cryptanalysis and the subsequent hardening of DES (although IBM also knew about that). Since it's a secret agency we cannot know the current state of their secret knowledge; my gut tells me though that since crypto has become a much more open/scientific discipline in the last 10-15 years that they probably don't have much of that anymore.
So this is my problem too but somehow I've managed to do it.

I've went into the Mission Control state and dragged the Neon app into a new screen. It was a pleasant full-screen experience with only the app full-screen and not an individual tab, which is what I expect from the full-screen mode.

Problem is when I tried it again, it didn't work. Not sure what's wrong but this is a newly released software so I'm sure they'll fix it.

Apart from that, it's really amazing. I especially LOVED the media control features.

edit: Got it now. Go into the full-screen mode when there no active tabs. Works perfectly after that.
As a fellow distributed software developer (http://firestr.com) great work! Quick question, how are you doing conflict resolution if there is a long term network partition? Does a client have any control over merge conflicts?
It worked for Ferrari.
I disagree.

My observation is that the scientific community is making assertions of what is more or less the current understanding of the state of global warming to the best of their knowledge. Advocates and opportunists are taking this and converting it to something like "98% percent of scientists agree that global warming is 100% caused by man and we are absolutely doomed if we do not do something right now." (obviously I am being somewhat hyperbolic.)

So the scientists are observing this and thinking to themselves "What these people are saying is not technically true, but it seems like most likely an effective approach to invoke action amongst the general public, so we'll just keep our mouths shut." It may very well turn out that this is in fact the most pragmatic approach.

What I am saying is, it may turn out that this isn't the most pragmatic approach. Addressing climate change costs money, and lots of it. People generally don't like spending money unless there is a very obvious and more or less immediate benefit. Now imagine a convincing leader comes along who validates this distrust, and can point to legitimate cracks in these assertions (actually, I don't think Trump even had to do this, but don't underestimate the power of YouTube propaganda videos)....you might just find yourself with a president that you never would have imagined could have been elected.

It's interesting in a thread where we're generally talking about the nature of public conversation, where I am actually mostly on the side of believing that man-made climate change is a real thing, but my sense is that most people think (or speak as if at least) I am completely incorrect in the things I say, that there is no disagreement in the scientific community on some of the specifics. It's really quite an extraordinary claim. (iirc, this is one of the big reasons Joel Spolsky quit blogging, he found that he had to qualify every single sentence with multiple sentences of disclaimers, as too many people refused to discuss in an intellectually honest way, always nitpicking individual statements while completely ignoring the spirit of the discussion. Likely putting words in his mouth somewhat, but you get the idea.)
Your examples are glossed over too quickly. So far, I'm trying to see what you are saying, but I don't get it. In short, I'm open to being convinced, but you aren't making your points convincingly.

Want to make a detailed list of your so-called "gratuitous" syntax and invite discussion, point by point, in an open-minded way?

If there is a simpler syntactic way to capture the semantics and design goals of Rust, I think people would be open to hearing it.

I don't think you'll feel the same way after you invite discussion around it.
I disagree. The role of a university CS degree is to bridge the gap between high school student and software development professional. That's going to include some theory but a lot of hands-on experience with modern development tools. It should include a healthy amount of group work and tons of coding projects.

If you want to play around with theoretical computer science, get your PhD. College educations are too expensive to not be imminently practical.

Indeed, and thanks for the feedback, esp. in the form of pointing out the interpretation rather than assuming things or putting words in my mouth. I agree with everything you said. I think it would be good to make a distinction between the anthropology of religion and theology (the latter as the study of the "divine" itself, as though there's such a thing to study. Anthropology has merit for sure and even the practice of religion and even belief in things that aren't scientifically supported may have utility or purpose even if their premise is factually baseless (which isn't to say that everything lacking scientific evidence is necessarily false, just well, lacking scientific evidence).

Our industry is a surprisingly small pond, at the top anyway. No one would invest in the Mill based on my formal bio "College dropout; never took a CS course in his life" :-)

Instead they invest based on our technology, most of which (and eventually all) we make publicly available. You may not be able to judge it, but any potential partner has people who can. One of the things that encouraged us in our long road is that the more senior and more skilled the reviewer, the more they loved the Mill. Quotes like "This thing is the screwiest thing I've ever seen, but it would work - and I could build it".
> My impression has always been that what we get from DJB is some wacky implementation written in a language of his own devising

Go look at TweetNaCl. It's a very small, very clear implementation.

In my opinion, the reason why djb was always doing "wacky" stuff was because everybody was always bashing him for being the slowest (it's hard to compete with an AES primitive in hardware).

Suddenly, however, performance isn't the boogeyman that it was when nobody else has any useful crypto.

> It is but it's slower than Vim.

VS Code < Vim < Vi < ed

I don't get the text editor speed as an issue ever. I used Vim (I use Vim mode in all my editors) not because it was faster on the CPU it was because it made my work faster. Today VS Code makes me work fast. I seriously have a 8 year old Dell crappy corporate computer for work and there is no noticeable slow down on either RStudio or VS Code.
I don't think that addresses my question. How did Google developing Chrome 'monopolize the market' or make it 'very expensive for competitors', the claims the person I'm replying to was making (if I understood them right, which I wasn't entirely sure of to begin with)
I'd definitely be wary of devoting 1+ year of my life full-time to "save" money on a program that costs "justs" $10K/year -- without looking at alternatives that might cost a bit more, but provide a much richer experience. (Yes, I have great deal of categorical skepticism about full-scale online degrees -- as opposed to occasional online courses -- in general).

Because even if you're unemployed, your most valuable resource is your time.
> r better yet, take half the classes, live at home, create a budget, and pay for your school (or at least books) as you go. I have never heard of anyone being turned down for a job because of their undergrad being from a no-name college.

This was possible in 2004, but it hasn't been possible since ~2014. Back in 2004, community colleges were like ~$100/wk (~$1500/semester) in tuition, which is somewhat affordable out of pocket by a working student living at home. Those costs have gone up to like $250/wk ($3750 semester) which is a lot more than I suspect most part time jobs would pay.

But the underlying message is apt. This is probably your best college strategy if you didn't end up with some sort of scholarship to another school (and come from a stable home).
But... but! If you sell N cars exceeding the limit, someone else will sell the other N cars of the 2N in your "2N conforming cars" in the other possibility, and they'd emit, too! Or does selling N cars exceeding the limit somehow eliminates the demand for the other N?

I mean you can say that the limit is too low, but I don't understand this N/2N argument at all.

Also, I dunno about pitchforks, but if I park illegally, I'll get a ticket, even though maybe the parking restrictions are wrong in some important sense, and I'd sorta like it if law applied to corporations. If that's a pitchfork then it's a pitchfork to fine me for how I park my car.
Yes, Newton actually wanted to include "classical scholia" in the Principia showing that he was just recovering the occult knowledge of the ancients: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/1984HisSc..22....1C

I don't know why he left them out -- I guess he knew it'd be controversial.
I'm aware that there's a difference between utility (value to me) and monetary value. But when people talk about 'expected value', they're generally talking about monetary value. (I'm not saying that you couldn't usefully apply it to utility, but that would require some gymnastics.)

"If everything had the same value to everybody, which is what is implied by equating "value" with monetary value, the economy would be completely stagnant and no wealth would ever get created."

That's untrue. Even if everyone had the same utility function with respect to every single possible good and service, (i) wealth would still be created (e.g. by a woodworker transforming a piece of wood into a piece of furniture) and (ii) trade would still take place (because, even in the absence of differing utility functions, there are still productivity gains to be had from specialisation).

Anyway, we've veered way off topic. The comment to which you replied "The expected value of all insurance is negative, and that's intentional" was entirely correct, as long as you don't want to use a definition of 'expected value' that nobody uses.
For ANY Business Activity
After searching around San Antonio's terrible local news sites for a while, I finally found a picture of the utility building which has put the project on hold: http://static-21.sinclairstoryline.com/resources/media/8fc84...

I don't know about everyone else, but my local city has much larger and much uglier utility buildings all over the place for storing municipal equipment. I guess forcing an entire city to live with terrible internet service from incumbent providers seems like a good trade off to avoid having 17 such sheds distributed across an entire city when you're an interfering busybody.
I would have no objection to a 30' x 50' Google hut in my neighborhood park if it meant having Fiber Internet available.

You should have made an argument that was literally true in the first place, instead of preemptively disclaiming your argument in the next paragraph.

Don't move the goalposts. Explain and defend your original argument by defining exactly what you mean by "speaking", if not literally "speaking", and listing the names of highly trained scientists who are not allowed to "speak" because they don't support the party line.
«I often wonder why did they decide to introduce such complexity with all independently developed runtimes with unrelated versions and all if they went fully open source.»

Most of the runtimes were developed evolutionarily for different system niches, well before .NET was given the option to be open source by default. .NET Core tried to reboot some of the "organic" evolutionary tech debt of several runtimes it was directly replacing/built from (the Silverlight runtime; the old Windows Phone runtime; the WinRT .NET runtime).

«Python is a great example, since you have your standard library with some rather carefully selected OS-specific APIs and then you got a bunch of runtimes all under the same version; no confusion whatsoever.»

Python still has multiple runtimes and some small amounts of confusion: CPython, Pypy, Stackless, IronPython, Python on Parrot... They don't/haven't all support the same version of the language and CPython has always been the "official standard" version, but Python is an example that no language is entirely immune from multiple runtimes either.

«I am a long time .NET developer and I also was confused in the beginning of .NET Core about what was going on and I think their rush to release an unfinished product was to blame.»

I don't think .NET Core was in a rush to release an "unfinished product", though it may seem to for a long term .NET developer. .NET Core has been the first runtime allowed to develop out in the open, as open source. It took about the same development time, I'd estimate, as the most similar projects you could imagine. But instead of showing up "out of nowhere" in VS 2017 Preview 1, mostly complete, we saw a lot of the little and big decisions along the way. Because it was .NET and promising big things I think .NET Core got a lot more early scrutiny by the .NET developers in what was closer to the equivalent of Python's "PEP development" phase, to use Python as the analogy, than .NET Developers had ever seen before.
