Easy to fix

1) prohibit popups asking for review

2) show ratings inside of app store and only after iOS knows you used this app for a while

3) stop asking for damn password every time and requiring review "title". This will make it easier
Three points possibly worth considering: 1.) The app should probably have a web interface, trying to get someone to download the app before they sign up may prove difficult. 2.) Social networking is a crowded space, does this one have some kind of angle, some "reason for existing"? 3.) Not sure about the name...Skuudle? What does it mean? This is my most tentative point, there is after all a popular dating site called zoosk.
I haven't seen any very compelling evidence that he's a racist.

He may be (most likely is) corrupt but, as has been extensively discussed elsewhere, it is not clear that has done anything strictly illegal, which makes it tricky to say definitively.

He definitely spouts outrageous lies all the time, though.
Probably because it fits an unhelpful pattern of comments on a variety of new products or devices, namely: "this doesn't fit my needs exactly, therefore it is stupid/wrong/evil/crap".

It's perfectly possible to express these kind of opinions in a way that wouldn't seem confrontational but apparently that's hard for people to do. (e.g. "my town is quite hilly, so cycling doesn't make as much sense for me as it does in flatter areas") In this case, possibly just leaving off the first sentence would have been enough. Probably not though, as it still comes off like the world revolves around their, not particularly common, use case.

That's maybe half of it, the fact that their comment is quite possibly just factually wrong, combined with the above means they don't get the benefit of the doubt.

There's lots of previous-gen EVs that would probably welcome the label of "good for in-city use", but it seems a stretch to say that is the limited application for any model of Tesla S.
Deploying Applications to Gridscale Using Registered Servers
Doing it like this does not mean you dont have that. In fact we use Gitlab as our `origin` that connects to a CI and allows code reviews. Some other projects of mine use Github for the same. This is really just about deploying itself.

I dont see the conflict honestly :)
Sure, you can make an async function and call `loop.run_until_complete` in your handler.
Uh, what? There's an up-to-date repository here:

Wow, never thought of that. Someone must create an alternative web app store that we can browse with aggregated ratings
I agree with you. I didn't give any logical argument, I just presented how people seem to behave, for better or worse. I don't own a car and when I need one it's usually one of the two scenarios I outline -- in which case I rent one.
That seems like an exceedingly error-prone thing to write. "x +=1" isn't a value and the unmanaged mutation will be surprising when it happens. On a Python implementation with parallelism (e.g. Jython) you could very easily end up losing updates - on CPython the GIL will probably mean your code accidentally doesn't exhibit that problem, but that doesn't seem a very desirable way to code.
That's a great reference. And very accurately describes the state of the media (broadly speaking).
Y'all pretend like there's nothing between a city car and a car that regularly does 500+ mile trips. EV's aren't at the point where really long trips are as convenient as in a combustion car, that's not news. But the range that they're good for has been steadily increasing, and so have the goalposts of the "I'll buy one when they can do XYZ miles on a single charge" comments.

This discussion has been had so many times, I can't blame people for downvoting it. Nothing new is going to come of having it again, it's just going to derail the thread.
Hum, you could argue that what they actually need is a sane road map for the project that allocates the devs they have in what the Firefox browser is actually lacking: better performance, memory management and bug fixing.

The supercharger network is pretty decent in central Europe, I don't see any restrictions for long distance travel there. And the range of over 300 miles makes it certanly a good car even for long distance travels.

Very cool product. Lots of exciting applications. What is next big feature guys?
Only partially.

I lifted out the MIME functions and some of the threading functions. Probably the request constructors as well.

It was also on a Heroku scaling dyno.

In my testing, the inbuilt web server is decent, but starts becoming hit and miss around 10,000 - 25,000 requests/sec, depending on hardware.

More than enough for hobby sites, but not quite enough for heavier enterprise applications.

What you do with each request can have huge impacts, a colleague tried to lazily render templates, so follow pre-rendering best practices.
While his personal opinions don't seem to be broadcast regularly I don't think this serves as a great example given his choice of VP.
I wouldn't call a 40 minute recharge break after 2-300 miles a long break, only slightly longer than the obvious rest/food/bio break time would need.
I'm glad they added this. I was disappointed that it wasn't in the Sierra announcement. Guess they just needed a bit more time.

I will be glad to finally be able to dump Flux. It's mind-bogglingly insane, but Flux still doesn't allow you to set a custom start and end time. I certainly don't need my screen going orange a full six hours before I go to bed. So I'll be getting away from it onto this official one the day it's available.

I've tweeted them about it a few times, but they don't reply, and it's not open source, so I can't fix it myself.

Plus, Flux is incompatible with fullscreen YouTube on the Macbook Pro, which is a really big problem too.
This is the principle of the Chevy Bolt. Instead of hoping for a revolution, they went for lots of little optimizations.
If you managed to find ~50kg motors & wheels and strap them directly to this battery pack, you could do 0-60 in 1 second.

How Uber Depends on Data Analytics to Deliver Extreme Customer Service
The name could definitely be better. I have to scroll down to the bottom of the page to figure out what the app actually does. A one or two line explanation in the landing area would be great.
When the description of an app starts like "XXX changes the way you meet new people. XXX is so much more than a social app." then I feel I've come across yet another app where the developers watched The Social Network and recreated... Facebook / Google+ / Bebo / Path / {add an existing social network}?

but adding extra stuff that is missing from these social networks.

Engineering wise I'm sure it's a fun challenge to build something like this, but product wise I can't see how this will get traction.

My advice would be to target a niche group (either geographically or interest wise) if you are going down the social app route. It's a chicken & egg problem getting a community that makes using an app worthwhile.

PS: I wanted to try the app, but the first line of the privacy policy scared me off:
"You will not provide any false personal information on the App, or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission."

Damn right I won't give real data to test run an app I have no reason to trust. Since on the registration screen the only thing to read is the privacy policy, which does an excellent job intimidating me as a person - I guess so much for the test run.

I've noticed this a lot in Reddit too. There I feel it is A distraction tactic. Posters seek to make a comment about very in every Trump thread and it is always some distracting sound bytes about the emails or something. Totally irrelevant to the thread at hand.

Seems to work like a charm to derail conversation about the real topic at hand.
I can't understand why this is. Surely it was harder to implement the sunrise sync than a simple time dropdown?

This is the one reason I want to get away from Flux.

Does anyone know what their supposed motivation was for not letting us set the start and end time?
but there are gains to be had, and types of code that can be automated. Boilerplate code and cross-project feature replication come to mind. In my opinion, the truth of the matter is that unless a project is 100% DRY and using all the external libraries it could be, it still has room for simplification and automation. A large part of why we create new high-level programming languages that transpile to lower languages is to avoid this boilerplate and needless replication.
This reminds me of the observation during the 2016 campaign that "Trump is the kind of person who brings a flamethrower to a stick fight".
One of my favourite quotes on the subject:

“Science is a tribute to what we can know although we are fallible… We have to cure ourselves of the itch for absolute knowledge and power.”

My pet hate.
It exists because some states are very sparsely populated while others actively suppress the votes of a large portion of its population, first by slavery, then by other methods. It's fair to increase representation of underpopulated states because their interests would be underrepresented if not (and it's a good thing because it allows large areas to be dedicated to nature).

Unfortunately, there is no mechanism in place that actively punishes voter suppression. Voters per inhabitant ratio and election turnout could be used to penalize states with low engagement to ensure voter suppression does not occur.
On a different tangent: do you think thus created nature will be beautiful to us? Will it be beautiful to people who are born there?

I wonder why the trees are beautiful to us.. Maybe because we are used to them and connect nice memories to the image of trees?
Pattern matching without TCO would leave me feeling deceived
Trump's campaign was based entirely on persuasion (populism for want of a better term). That "alternative facts" exists as a thing is just another play in the persuasion handbook to discredit the idea that there any real facts at all - only opinions seem to matter now. As a result any attempt to counteract "Trumpism" with facts and data is dead in the water already.
Yeah, it feels like somebody's taken some sensible advice from the HTTP 1.1 era too far. (I realise we're still very much in the tail end of the HTTP 1.1 era.)

Putting styles needed to render your above the fold content inside <head> is a sensible thing to do, assuming you've been able to restrain yourself by not animating the buggery out of everything, and have kept your stylesheet small. It saves a roundtrip to the server or CDN that will block your content from rendering.

Putting all your styles inline? Sheer madness. Inventing your own syntax to do it? Even worse. The whole thing with CSS is, used well, it does actually reduce page weight vs. old skool HTML table and element based styling. You lose all that if you start bunging all your styles inline.

Still, I suppose if your page is already 4 #@<£ing megabytes because of all the crap you've cargo-culted in, maybe it doesn't matter so much. </snark>

Well yeah, but rigor is part-of the scientific mindset. One that we now try to enforce with statistics, peer-review, and reproducibility. But those are rather new ideas. Proper based evidence medicine, for example, is something we only came up with in the 60s or so. Rigorous experimental science might produce better insights in some way, because the data is better. But there is still value in other methods. An interesting example here is the advent in genetics for personalized medicine: did it deliver on the promises? No, it's still utter hype and vaporware. Part of the reason, I believe, is that it was merely stamp collecting. Sequence enough, go fishing for correlations, and hope that something useful comes of it. The current hype around CRISPR and related technology? Not because of rigorous scientific testing on large peer-reviewed data sets. Someone, was "merely" curios about bacterial immunological defense mechanisms. Curious enough to try and understand it. It was the explanation that made it worth it. Ideally they go hand in hand, but anyone who has ever been in a scientific institute will agree that this "idealized" view is rarely, if ever, true.

But the comment was in response to a comment about a 550 mile record. I think that brings fair game to point out that nobody can reliably use the thing to perform trips 85% that long frequently. For example, someone who classifies as a "mega-commuter"[1] would not be able to use a Tesla unless their office has a charging station.

1. "Across the United States, mega-commuters on average spend two hours to traverse 166 miles just for the lighter morning commute " http://www.mercurynews.com/2013/03/04/bay-area-tops-new-mega...
Not sure personally, the poster says it's good for X case, for Y case it's not so good. Doesn't really fit the pattern you're outlining, he hasn't called Tesla cars bad at all.

I'm not seeing the confrontation, I'm seeing concessions made and a balanced comment.
Concept and execution are two different animals.
The problem I have with Python is that for loops don't have their own scope, only methods.

Add that to the lack of variable declarations (even optional ones, a la my in perl, var in javascript), and it gets hard to work out what scope of any given variable actually is.

Surprising example:

fns = []

for n in [1,2,3,4]:
def fn():
print(n)
fns.append(fn)

for fn in fns:
fn()
There are two forces at work, Trump and the Republican party. The gaffes are all Trump, the sweeping executive orders mostly the party.

He never had much of a platform beyond "build the wall!", and is happy to roll with Republican dogma. The Republicans proved during the last administration that they're willing to bend the rules to breaking point to damage their opponents; they've decided they're willing to humor Trump so they can get him to do what they want.

If the president were a more established Republican like Ted Cruz, we'd still be seeing huge and destructive changes to health care, climate change policy, etc.

It's hard to know which is the bigger threat. Trump is a new style of threat in the way he arrogantly ignores the old polite conventions and even the law itself, lining his pockets in plain sight. Letting that pass unchallenged could result in a permanent autocracy, one "strong man" after another.

The Republican party is "just" pushing an extreme agenda, similar to what they did under Bush, which is more of a known threat (or not a threat at all if you agree with their platform). But they're also neglecting their duty to push back against Trump's abuse of the system. They should be fighting tooth and nail to force him to sell his businesses.

Hi jacklucidminds,

Thanks! The critical thing at the moment is supporting all browsers (particularly IE!) but beyond this, we want to dramatically improve how people discover tools and resources in the workplace. Think recommender systems and the like, it would be great to suggest resources to people based on their colleagues' activity for example. We think there is a lot of potential but it's making sure we nail the basics and then deliver any value we can on top.

The mistake is to believe that people should care about an issue just because of proven risk. That is actually the domain of politics, ethics, and philosophy. Turning it into a scientific debate does not actually pursuade people of a particular world view.

Try to make lingo a bit simpler, I think most people won't get through all the complicated explanations:

> Catching up with Facebook friends has never been this easy or straight forward before.

This does not mean anything to me, does not deserve main spot.

> Download the app to see what all the fuss is about

Maybe go with "Download the app and start meeting friends for real", emphasize what is it actually about.

> Life's too short to sit around at home

This should be at the top of the page

> Skuuddle helps you be the most socially proactive version of yourself.

I can imagine people with blank expressions when they read this. I would re-word that to "Go out and meet people, a lot", ok, maybe not that simple, but you get what I mean.

> Skuuddle helps you turn your acquaintances into friends.

"Skuuddle helps you turn your virtual friends into real ones."

And so on.
There's one thing I worry about with keeping all my passwords in a single file - if a government agent gains access to it, I'll have to decrypt it, which will reveal the password to my key, my key, and a full list to all web sites I have accounts at and a list of those accounts. Let's say you have an alt reddit account you use to post to /r/ihatedonaldtrump, congratulations, now the government knows with certainty that it was you. It's one thing to see your IP making requests to reddit.com - you can just give them your normal username and password, but with a single password file, you give them all your usernames and passwords. Maybe I'm overly paranoid, but I don't like keeping passwords to anything that might be remotely questionable in a normal encrypted password file.

On the flip side, if the file in question contains an account to a questionable site, could you withhold the key/password to it under the clause against self-incrimination? I.e. you're sued for insulting Donald J. Trump's itty bitty tiny handsy-wandsies, but you also have an account at buymarijuanaonline.com, so you can't give them access to your password database, because you'll incriminate yourself in a different crime.

Technically you're right, but what you really want at home is not generating heat, but having more heat inside. These are not the same things. You can actually move some heat from outside to inside by using a heat pump (powered by electricity), commonly known as "air conditioner". Heat pumps can typically move 2x-6x more heat then they consume energy. So practically their heating or cooling efficiency is 2x-6x better than a resistance-based heater.

As for burning stuff - burning stuff is typically much cheaper, although it is actually the least efficient way of heating, in terms of a ratio between the usable heat you get and the total chemical energy converted to heat.

I don't know. I think Trump could literally say that he doesn't care about SCOTUS and it would be unlikely to be the wildest thing he said that day. A Republican majority Congress could definitely ignore a SCOTUS ruling.
