The problem is there is nothing like "atomic mutable", equivalent of C++ std::atomic with at least sequential consistency.

So you get to drop all safety often instead to have shared mutability.
All you guys said just proved my point: This is basically the same as saying no business person should run for the president, so just leave it only to career politicians. If you don't see this, it is simply because your crazy hate towards DJT blocked your mind.
I wouldn't be so sure. I'd be interested in a definitive answer.
I had visited that page and kind of suspected that. I just was fairly shocked that such a thing would exist in the heart of Silicon Valley (Mountain View, aka the home of Google).

I wish these people would put all this "love of life" energy into actually taking good care of all the unwanted children that already exist... From what I have read and heard from people in the know our foster and adoption systems are beyond broken.

If there were colored icons in each tab, you'd be able to figure out which tab is which at a glance, without reading every single title until you find what you're looking for.

It's so obvious that icons are easier than text—and this is why you see icons everywhere–that I have a hard time understanding how anyone would favor this solution. However, of course I have no interest in convincing you to switch browser, it's definitely a matter of preference.
I have alternative advice: follow those thoughts to its conclusion and address that.

For example:

-> I often start to preemptively regret my decision

Why do you regret your decision? Perhaps it's because there may be a more optimal decision? Why does the decision matter? Maybe you've had some failures in life and its time for an epic comeback, so you can't afford to lose. Why does it matter if you lose anyway? Maybe you feel that your friends/family will deem you worthless if you don't succeed?

If this is your train of thought, then the solution is simple: find better people to hang out with. [0]

[0] The solution isn't that trivial, but this actually would help if my example resonated more than it should've.
> After watching the first few press conferences and Kelly Anne's interviews where she said that, it seems clear to me they weren't trying to say there were more people physically at the inauguration in their "alternative facts" but what they are referring to specifically is the viewership.

In the original claim, Spicer explicitly claimed Trump's audience was the greatest both in-person and by remote media (and stated I. a way which clearly implied this was beyond debate and supported by incontrovertible evidence), and, in any case, the only metrics I've seen anyone bring out for the revised claim (for which, incidentally, the Administration provided no evidence) also are indicative of it being false (but not absolutely conclusive on that pointz as published metrics aren't available for all media channels, particularly many non-YouTube online channels.)

At best Spicer both seriously misspoke and referenced separate standards when he meant to reference an aggregate and, even so, presented rank hopeful speculation as certain fact.

But even that stretches plausibility considerably.
I think your description is definitely spot on and Trump has also been playing this game — in one form or another — since the 80s.
Why does trump get to use twitter, but the EPA can't?
Given how he actually used one of his campaign speeches as a hotel infomercial I have no doubt that he will use the office for his own benefit.
Why not more than one row of tabs? That would seem more logical.
Thanks! Yes I plan to have data literals -- it's basically going to be JSON, because that is sort of the least common denominator between JS, Python, Ruby, Perl, etc. Shell is a glue language, and JSON is pretty natural at this point.

There is also going to be influence from R and CSV files (which goes with awk).

I have thought about the config problem a lot -- and a configurable sandboxed "data mode" you are talking about is probably what I will go with.

If you squint, the oil shell will look not unlike nginx configs, e.g. a bunch of words with nested {} for blocks. Maybe like https://github.com/vstakhov/libucl or https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl (hm this seems to even have here docs!)

This kind of thing was done a lot with Python at my last job, to various degrees of success (e.g. https://bazel.build/ - the build language is derived from Python). Python sort of has some "data mode" sandboxing features, like being able to set __builtins__ when you exec/eval, but probably not enough. It didn't work well enough to prevent people from writing their own config file parser eventually. The syntax is close but not exactly what you want for some use cases.
The phrase "both in-person and around the globe" is ambiguous. It could mean either that there were more witnesses in person, and more witnesses around the globe, or it could mean that the total number of witnesses, anywhere, was the largest ever. This is the (terrible) beauty of it: a supporter can believe the former, while the administration needs only to defend the latter.

The phrase "alternative facts" too is ambiguous and, in the way it was used by Conway is classical doublethink. Doublethink involves two actions: a public lie and wilful self-delusion. One interpretation (without context) of the phrase "alternative facts" is that the facts are merely unknown and up for debate. But one merely needs to look at a photo of the inauguration to see that the facts are that Obama had higher attendance in 2009. [1] To claim otherwise is a lie.

Another is that the _true_ facts are known, but Conway is explicitly stating: these are the facts which I am telling you to believe. This is the wilful self-delusion.

From 1984:

And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed – if all records told the same tale – then the lie passed into history and became truth. "Who controls the past," ran the Party slogan, "controls the future: who controls the present controls the past." And yet the past, though of its nature alterable, never had been altered. Whatever was true now was true from everlasting to everlasting. It was quite simple. All that was needed was an unending series of victories over your own memory. "Reality control," they called it: in Newspeak, "doublethink."

looked at the report to see if they'd reviewed torguard and apparently they... don't realize it's a VPN service and think it's related to the onion router. Kinda undermines they're credibility a bit if they can't even identify the tools they're auditing properly.
Yes, the frustrating thing was that people previously praised the language _despite_ its obvious footguns. A language where 'dropping parentheses where you can' is idiomatic is a disaster waiting to happen.

I don't know about you, but I never want to be holding a footgun, ever.
He says "exurb" like it's a McMansion ultra-suburb, but then the words "town center" "walk around" "business" come up, so isn't it actually a small city?

Eh, alternative facts.
Also in e.g. Europe if you ask people how to better prevent crime many people probably would say to be tougher on criminals. The difference I guess is that crime is not really an issue often discussed in regards to politics.

1)

" he wants to strengthen the [non-existent] libel laws, so that "press can't get away with lies about me"?"

The press has called him out for his lies - but they have also blatantly lied about him - and others.

There is nothing 'totalitarian' about being able to sue someone for printing lies.

2)

You're blaming me for having 'alternative facts' when you're inventing them?

The video indicates that 'campaign trail' Trump indicated that he was pro-life - because he was asked. (Of course, his whole life before that he was pro-choice, but to get GOP votes, he had to have this position publicly).

But in the very video you offered as 'evidence' - he didn't at all indicate he'd be legislating on the issue. In fact - he said it would be decided in the courts.

So a president indicating that issues 'decided in the courts' is now a 'Hitler totalitarian'?

Just today, on Charlie Rose - the leftist PBS commentators were indicating that he's made no real indication of anything related to social justice.

He did not mention 'abortion' in any of his policy docs, nor during any of his major speeches.

I'd argue you're making up facts if you think Trump has any plans to press the abortion issue in any meaningful way. There will be zero legislation.

But it doesn't matter - there's nothing at all in Trump's outlined policies that hint at 'totalitarianism'.

Nothing.

Obama murdered American citizens without a trial via drone strikes - and oversaw a massive expansion of the surveillance state. Those are 'scary totalitarian' things.

And I don't even like Trump.
The guys who wrote CockroachDB never, afaik, tried to write it in Scala, and never told us whether they miss flatMap, generics, or something like that.

They guys from Movio did; their problem domain is likely different.
[On the one hand, maybe Trump's false claim of illegal voters is wrong. But on the other hand, maybe he's right that ISIS and genocide are Obama's fault. So does it really matter if Trump is wrong?]
I ate them all the time when I was a kid. I associate the taste with childhood.
If you guys really understand 1984 you would know your popular hates toward DJT already proved he has nothing to do with 1984.

Ironically, it is your guys' crazy love towards HRC proves the point of 1984. Even there is strong evidence shows HRC is a shameful corrupted politician, you HRC supporters just love her with full heart. She even got warmly welcome when she appeared at Broadway show, after there was direct evidence revealed her team cheated in Democrat nomination process. It is what 1984 is.

What is worse is your guys love toward Obama, who is apparently a failure. Racial division increased during his presidency, but you guys blame on DJT. It is what 1984 is.

Depends on the app, but for most I'd say React Native will be suitable.

I used to do native iOS apps in the past, but I've always been more of a web developer than native. This winter, I did a client project in React Native (http://goshakkk.name/works/12min-mobile/) and the experience has been very positive on the iOS side (RN + Android is another story...)

Almost everything you know about React.js holds true in RN. The CSS-like styling and layout with Flexbox are a godsend. ES6 with Flow is type safe, mostly.

> Every gaffe was reported on and some of it also not true

What wasn't true? Honestly curious as I don't remember any truly spurious accusations against him.

> All of this just for profit and tv ratings. There is also ego in there because who want's to be the last to break a story.

Certainly, but that doesn't discount the validity of the reported incidents.

> We see the same thing happening when a disaster occurs. For example the airport shooting. So much false information is reported just because they have to be the first/exclusive.

Yes and no. I think a lot of that comes from reporting on a developing real-time situation where information is constantly revised. That's rarely the case with speeches or political coverage of this sort.
What is it then called when you could and should have easily verified your belief and even after pointing out that your belief is wrong, you refuse to admit that your belief was actually wrong, if not lying?

"No, sir. I did not lie in my CV. I _believe_ that this funny looking letter I received from my mother some time ago means that I have Ph.D from MIT"
I'm referring to Saturday's statement as the lie: crowd size, magnetometers, mats, metro numbers. All false information, easily verifiable, and the very next day was called alternative facts by a member of his own team.

Tuesday, reporting what the president believes is the proper way to do it, rather than stating a bunch of falsehoods as if they are facts. So I'm considering Tuesday a Spicer recovery with residual damage of trust. The president on the other hand, proposes without evidence the are millions of criminal voters, while he's the law and order guy, who's not immediately investigating his own concern about electoral integrity. That's bat guano.

Security and privacy isn't only prevalent on browser frontend features. There are battles happening within every standardized Web specification. Without more than one major player, one company would be allowed to dictate the level of security and private within every API. There are also initiatives that push the Web forward in security like with Let's Encrypt or Do Not Track. Mozilla also advances into new areas of technology to try to ensure they remain open.

It's totally fine to prefer one browser or the other. It's great to have an actual choice. But the ideals and values aren't just for show.

400 calories is a half hour running, for comparison. I think you'd be closer to 100-150 calories, as standing does not consume much (not saying it is not unpleasant, but as energy consumption go, it's pretty negligible) and walking consume way less than running.

It's always good exercise, and probably helped to look slimmer. However, as other mentioned, losing weight via exercise is not that easy, and a good diet is way more important

You may be right you may be wrong. Do you remember that time when he claimed he was going to personally donate money to veterans and then only did so when the media caught him having not done it (though others in his fundraiser had)? [1] And then he bought a giant portrait of himself with charity money? [2]

The point is when it comes to ethics in leadership is that you are supposed to avoid even the appearance of impropriety. For that to happen, we must see evidence. If its good enough for rank and file members of corporate America, it's good enough for the President of the United States. He must disclose his financial conflicts of interest and resolve them -- in public.

For instance, if it's a movie being streamed, the majority of connections will finish downloading the movie long before the user finishes watching, making a pretty decent seed time. Those with a slower connection wouldn't have made a particularly great seed anyway.
> but there's a reason why GOTO is considered to be brain cancer and pattern matching is generally considered to be great.

Look at any large C codebase and you will see plenty of goto statements to manage resource cleanup. The problem is using goto in place of structured control flow like loops and if/else. Statements like yours make it seem like there is a conceptual problem with a jump.
1984 and Brave New World are my all time double plus good books. We've been gradually sliding towards those worlds over the last number of decades, regardless of Trump.

No, by one CPU i meant not a single core. I meant not having to manage different memory models and available access patterns. Or different ways of handling race conditions and alignments.

You get to use unsafe almost exclusively in the internals of such access where it shouldn't be necessary if there are ways to specify more properties than just binary "safe" and "unsafe".
