DDG has yielded results far superior to google years (IMHO, this is a bit subjective), but I don't see people moving over because google is simply "what they know".

A better alternative won't make people move, they need further motivation.
No I mean you can use the capex savings from "just" an average laptop to buy/build really beefy servers. In a professional setting this scales quite well. At home, you could also use that server as a NAS or gaming rig. That way, you can also upgrade the server separately from the laptop.

It's maybe not for everybody (e.g. photo/video editing), but pretty underrated IMO. Further advantages: RAID, easy to replace the laptop if you lose it or it gets damaged, server are easier to set up with fast, reliable connections (intra or internet) for pulling VM images. Disadvantages: More maintenance/admin?
Depends what you mean. If you want to use it for power generation then you can but it is probably a bad idea: it gives resistance to the heat flow.

However, the thermoelectric effect is used by overclockers but on reverse : they consume energy to move heat from the CPU to a radiator. It is called a Peltier cell.
How is this possible? Wasn't the point of chip cards to sign specific transactions using an internally stored secret? Or is it actually just an obtuse way to move a shared secret around?
If it matters to you, you are not actually seeing the planets in motion:

> Wang said that the animation is based on eight observations of the planets since 2009. He then used a motion interpolation algorithm to draw the orbit between those points.

I wish NASA was more upfront with the enhancements it adds to media, including often adding color and, in this case at least, adding motion.
Kim Peek was an extremely well documented individual. That he retained seemingly inhuman amounts of information is not under dispute, even though such charlatans do exist.

That was already known, too. It does show that it doesn't create two completely equal, completely functional consciousnesses. But the problem with brain damage is people tend to also lose the ability to recognize that an ability is missing, so we can't just ask peóle "are you a little less conscious than you were before we took out that part of your brain?"
This is certainly one way to do backups. Two things which come to mind on first reading:

1. You're encrypting backups but not authenticating them; someone with access to your archives could trivially truncate an archive or replace one archive with another, and there's a nontrivial chance that they could splice parts of different archives together.

2. Every archive you're creating is stored as a separate full archive; this will probably limit you to keeping a handful of archives at once. With a more sophisticated archival tool, you could store tens of thousands of backups in the same amount of space.
I want to mention Reddit bots who copy user content to make karma and gain influence on Reddit. There is one kind that mostly copies images with karma in the 1.000s and repost them with the same title a year or two later.

To appear more legit these bots also copy user comments and post them to /r/askreddit in threads that are similar named but most often not exactly the same as the original post. I suspect that often this /r/askreddit thread is also created by another bot from the same farm.

I'm not sure what the owners do with these bots, but I suspect you could downvote views you don't like or upvote videos to the frontpage and make lots of views and money from that.
The problem is that you often don't know what the state of the patient is going to be in a year, two or five, after the treatment. My grandma is 88 now. A few years ago she had serious issues with heart, blood overpressure, and electrolyte balance and and a few other things which made her look and feel like half dead. Some doctors didnt give her any chances, some said she wouldn't walk anymore, or some said she would stay in the hospital till the end. After a few years of trial and error in the treatment, multiple stays in hospital, they finally found a way to "fix" all the things. Now she feels and behaves like she was 60. Her quality of life went 10 levels up. She takes care of herself, goes out, meets people, tells jokes, etc.

That's not the point. There's a poison pill in the contract. Mozilla can walk out of the existing contract, get all of the money in lump sum, and sign with another search partner (while still being paid by Verizon). There are other search engines waiting in line, Mozilla's not married to Verizon.

Certainly there is always some of that around in any organization: Don't undermine your boss. Some bosses are more open or effective at that than others. The executive branch has well over a million employees, so everything you can imagine is probably going on somewhere all the time.

In those cases, I think those situations were local to Pentagon programs; they were not instructions from the White House; they weren't blanket gag orders for whole departments on every issue.

I'm not being glib here, but after experimenting with many such solutions over the years, I've found that the best solution for me is to always carry a cheap, paper notebook--like one of those black/white-spotted composition notebooks with cardboard covers and unlined paper--that is about the size of my laptop lid. I just slide the laptop and notebook together into whatever backpack or bag I'm using for the laptop.

I always have a variety of pens and pencils with me, and writing/drawing with high-quality pens & pencils on real paper is better and more convenient in every way than writing on an equivalent-sized whiteboard surface. I then have 100 pages I can keep or give away instead of one that I have to delete and reuse, and without all the mess. Plus, I always have a couple of pens in my pocket, even when I don't have my laptop, so I never end up with a whiteboard but no markers.

The only time I've found whiteboards more useful than paper are when I needed a very large surface. If a small surface is good enough, paper works better for me.

I have been keeping a work/science journal for a few years now. I keep it simple: One text file per day in a single directory. Ever significant thing I do gets a new headline in the file. The text file is written in org-mode using org-journal, but any other formatting convention would work just as well. I find that writing the journal entries focuses my thoughts, sort of like explaining them to another person would. Also, it helps me focus on the important things, and it helps me remember.

Last year though, I made a significant improvement that changed the way I keep my journal: I added a bit of magic that moves all journal entries marked as "todo" from the previous day to the current day when a new daily file is created. This allows me to keep a persistent to-do list that I slowly work through, where finished steps end up in the journal.

What stuns me is that we all know these junk accounts are easy to make, purely by how easy it is to make our own accounts.

We know they cost nothing to us, and so, any time we find a website and approach it as a total stranger and create a cheap account quickly, we know other strangers are capable of the same.

So, clearly no substantial population is buying into fake news.

Those that do, are likely also paying hundreds of dollars on craigslist for viagra, using escrow accounts.

Does that do collapsible tree structures of tabs?

Can that auto hide and auto reveal?

Or is it a shitter half copy of tree style tabs that will never actually be released because it would "confuse normal users".

I'm not a normal user I don't want a crippled product. Normal users use Edge, Safari, IE or Chrome anyway. They won't use Firefox because it doesn't come pre-installed or get advertised on google.com. There is no point in Firefox chasing normal users. They need to chase power users and importantly web-developers.

I wanna say "There are no best tech stack". It all depends on your use case.

What language are you good at OP?

You can quickly mock up majority of your use case using PHP, ruby or even Node.

Create a monolithic app and stay away from microservices until you have clearly drawn service boundaries. I'd say (6 to 12 months) in production. You dont need the headache of the distributed overhead.

Just keep in mind that you should "write code that can easily be disposded or replaced, not extensible"

For generating client sdk's i suggest using swagger. Grpc is there but i have trouble grasping protobuf sharing at the moment

For user clients, i would go for react native.

You're better off using a 3rd party for analytics when you are starting up: if you have the money, I'd suggest using segment, new relic or even google. Else, do it with prometheus or kibana.

Thanks for the feedback. It will be challenging to offer both extensibility and performance safeguards. One idea I had was to do some form of performance evaluation of each theme/plugin and show a score or impact grade to the user when they are enabling it. A bit like how Google Fonts shows you the impact of the web fonts you've selected on page weight.

> You have to know what an alloy is to laugh at that one.

I disagree. These types of jokes also tend to fall prey to interpretation by association, that is, the audience may just recognize that it's supposed to be funny and it's funny for scientific reasons, but they don't fully know what an alloy is or couldn't explain it. It's less about the actual knowledge of the joke and more that they to some degree have had the premise explained and find it funny due to "insider knowledge".

A lot of more common science jokes tend to be like this - the joke isn't that the setup or punchline are particularly good, it's the exclusivity that adds to the value of the understanding. It's not that you get the joke that is funny to many people, it's that others don't get the joke that adds value.

If you have the resources, find out what museums are in your area, or plan trips to the museums that contain things you'd be interested in.

While watching videos is really awesome, actually being able to watch these things in action provides a level of context that is impossible to convey digitally.

From the article:

> So I have seen fair amount of 2 competently different kind of languages.

He's speaking of two years of node.js and two years of java. Two years is generally not enough experience in languages to adequately evaluate their prototype potential.

In addition, comparing RoR to Node.js and Java is incorrect. A more accurate comparison would be RoR to Node.js/react or Java/spring, which gives you a lot of the scaffolding and framework and presentation layer which lets you develop more quickly.

For one service, no. But you can easily have one or two dozen such services, and then it really adds up, particularly with per-user or per-server charges.

Foundations of Machine Learning Boot Camp
Each one has his/her pace and level, you need to find yours. There is a pletora of tutorial/courses available with a practical approach if you will.

If you know your math see The Deep Learning book for instance (which covers from math basics to current approaches).

Andrej K. also has a course focused on CV but covers the most important concepts of DL and CNN, RNN. DL/ML is nothing more than math afterall and a nontrivial subject, rather highly specialized so if you're in the rain is to get wet.
Generally I would go with .NET Core - it is still in its infant stage, but by the time you have MVP it will be OK - Microsoft are throwing a lot of efforts in this direction.

Having the same technology stack in web and mobile will allow you to reuse skills one day when you build a team.

The philosophy of WPF is that you do all of the UI yourself. It gives great flexibility to make anything look like anything else, but it provides a subpar experience if you mostly need your app to be functional, vs winforms. And as you point out it kills any form of standardisation. What's missing to WPF is good tooling. The current tooling in VS is nothing more than an XML editor, without a useful intellisense, and reverting to a blank page if you need to customize any control.
Going to be honest, I am bothered about people who use such bots to sway public opinion, troll or otherwise do harm to others. But, this is literally "Hacker News" and what he is describing is a hack, and his post is going into specific detail about how he achieved that hack.

As a marketing guy, I see these trends of unique content focused websites beginning to win over the YouTube/Social Sharing model in many parts of the world. In China, made for internet shows and Korean/Japanese shows dubbed into Chinese are all the rage. In India, locally led content focused video companies have begun rapidly grabbing ad budget dollars from what was previously a YouTube/FB market primarily - especially given FBs issues with video viewability. In the US, there's Netflix and Amazon Prime.

The only difference is in the monetization model - primarily subscription in the US and Ads in China/India - though we're seeing some models of Subscription to do away with ads in China.
