And, not one comment here or in the story about associating book title viewing activity with a library account with personally identifiable information.

They could have used book activity records, I think.

I guess stripping personal information was too much work.
I disagree. It makes more sense to me to consider the language the material or medium (that is shaped by a tool) rather than a tool itself.

To examine another simple example, consider a potter who crafts a vase from clay. The potter's wheel and his hands are the tools he uses to form the clay medium. I do not consider the clay itself to be a tool.

I think that the analogy fits. Javascript is more accurately represented by the clay than by the wheel. If your final product is "function foo(bar){...};" you are forming that function from javascript using a text editor. The same way a vase is formaed from clay using a wheel.

Also worth noting, the same way that vase can become a tool used by some other craftsman on some other project, that javascript could be packaged in a way that lets you take it with you to other projects. But just like the original clay is not a tool, the javascript isn't a tool. But the package you make with it might be.

As for 2, Trump grabbed controversy by the balls (erm, pussy) and kept on going (note: I'm just using presidential speech now). Most candidates drop out when those kind of scandals hit, trump just shrugged it off and pretended it didn't exist. We must see Obama's birth certificate but I can't show you my tax return. Sigh.

As for 3, trump doesn't so much negotiate as he does scream at the top of his lungs until the opposition tires and leaves.

As for 4, damn, I hope his naiveness is an intentional ploy or we are in trouble.

Trump is the most unlikeable candidate we've had in my lifetime. Everyone else was just boringly nice in comparison.

I would use AWS, EC2 + RDS for now. A t2.micro should get you started. Make sure you automate the installation using Ansible (it's slow but you don't care, most importantly it's easy to pick-up and it's relatively agentless).

At this point, that's it IMHO. I wouldn't even use an ELB or auto-scaling at this point.

If you need help, drop a mail, I have spare time I can help you with the specifics (free of charge ofc).

ps. AWS has a learning curve and is not cheap but saves you a great deal of sysadmin management and most importantly, saves you from probable fire-fighting at this stage, plus there is the free tier will get you nearly a year without charges.

> technology that's not that expensive

"Expensive" is relative, and the technology has extra costs outside of itself that have been paid in some parts of the world, but not in others. In a part of the world where electricity may as well be unobtainium, that heavy, carefully-calibrated, $1000 centrifuge isn't much better than the scrap value of the metal it's made from (while still being obscenely, prohibitively expensive for the people it would help).

We've got shinier toys, if you want to call that "developed". We haven't improved upon the human race itself, if that's what you mean. Humans are naturally selfish and tribal. Society shifts tribal boundaries, and social structures like government can force selfishness into a longer-term view, but that's about all.

His argument is that small civic investments in infrastructure in poor neighborhoods have a good chance of increasing the average property value of the whole neighborhood and thus increasing the tax base. Not all 'investments' will work, but they are relatively inexpensive so you can experiment and replicate the ones that do work across the whole city.

At the time Lincoln was writing, Russia was an absolute monarchy politically and largely feudal economically when the West (even those countries that were formally monarchies) had substantial penetration of both democratic institutions and capitalist economics (to the point that detailed criticism of capitalism and proposals for post-capitalist economic systems were around; this letter, after all, was written several years after the Communist Manifesto.)

So, yeah, it's not surprising that Russia would be chosen as an example of a backward and anti-liberty regime even then.
We need to follow the example of Ancient Greece, where citizens got paid time off work to attend the Ecclesia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecclesia_(ancient_Athens)

> It had the final say on legislation and the right to call magistrates to account after their year of office. In the 5th century BC its members numbered about 43,000 people. It would have been difficult, however, for non-wealthy people outside of the urban center of Athens to attend until payments for attendance were introduced in the late 5th century. It originally met once every month, but later it met three or four times per month.

Today, "ecclesiastical" is associated with a centrally managed church, but the term is rooted in a democratic assembly, with payment for attendance enabling representation of more segments of the citizenry.

This article (and most of the rest of the information I found on the Internet) is referring to solicitation of customers, not solicitation of employees.

Green threads. To call into C, you need to switch stacks. This is (one of the big reasons) why we removed green threads from Rust.

Tokio is also an exonym for 東京 – in many languages other than English. While the spelling overlaps with how 「ときお」 (whatever that means) would be romanized, the author himself told the name got its inspiration from the metropolis of Tokyo.

Edit: By the way, your idea of "unambiguously" encoding Japanese doesn't hold water. Written Japanese is written in a mixture of kanji and kana, and no romanization system does round-trip the kanji. You could say that (good) romanization systems unambiguously encode the pronunciation, but that isn't true either: in addition to the fact that encoding "pronunciation" of written language is problematic in principle, there are the pitch accents that aren't captured by kana. But we're digressing.

If you give up the "unambiguous", "tokyo" is a perfectly good romanization for 東京.

Go has different memory layout and calling conventions in part because of its green threads implementation. It has to switch stacks to call C code because the Go stacks are small and relocatable, to make growing more efficient, which is only possible because of the GC.
On a interesting side note Optimizely was a very early customer of ours (BuiltWith) starting in 2010 which helped them find customers for their own tool based on sites using their competitors (which at the time wasn't very many), I don't think it will bother them that other businesses can do the same thing.

Glad to see all these other tools in the market now there was and is clearly a need for it.

They're also prosecuting him for reckless driving. Reckless driving witnessed by an officer is also (some) evidence of driving while impaired.

You can be impaired while on legal substances that don't show up on drug tests. The officer's testimony makes the DA's statement perfectly valid. And the evidence aside from the chemical test tends to bolster the state's case.

The United States was on perfectly good terms with Russia from the early republic through 1917. During the American Civil War, and for that matter during the period about 1800-1814, we were on better terms with Russia than with England or France. During the later part of the 19th Century various persons of liberal convictions did complain about the Russian government; they made a persuasive case in the press, but how far this affected the opinions of the governing classes is not clear.

To have an opposite to point to does seem to do the national self-esteem good. The national mind might be another matter.

> all of them can run from a thread pool with zero problems

Until you exhaust the thread pool, in which case everything relying on the thread pool will be much longer than usual to complete.

Nodejs does this for name resolving, and it's a nightmare. Basically, with the default pool of 4 threads, it suffices of 4 slow resolves to DoS everything that needs to do a name resolve in the same process.

I hope that Rust will not have the same problem when mixing async and thread pools.

If the thread pool is not limited in size, you avoid this problem, but you lose all the benefits of async.
