I haven't ever used it because I find React quite adequate. I share your concern about the complex runtime layer that React introduces, and it is getting even more complex with the introduction of Fiber.

However, the test of an abstraction is whether it leaks undesirably, and whether it lets you escape to the lower layers when you need to. React scores well on both counts.

So while the implementation might be complex and will get even more elaborate over time, the abstraction is as water-tight as I can hope. In that case complex implementations with better performance might even be a good thing.

Also, I strolled through the React codebase in its early days and found it eminently understandable. So if it ever comes to it, I'm confident I can contribute a patch for the things I need with enough time and effort.
I don't hate anyone. I just don't support feminism because it creates bad manners and double standards. How is that hate?

Further, at the time this happened, I didn't even know what feminism was. I was around 16 years old. It was 1978 or so. After it happened, I did some investigating and discovered what might cause such a reaction. For me, it was plain that it was a philosophy based on false premises and as such worthy of rejection. I don't go about preaching my position, but I also certainly never even silently consent to the approbation of a false idea.

Here's the real kicker: tell me what feminism is, then we'll see if we agree it's a good thing or a bad thing. (Of course, the debate on what feminism is will never reach a conclusion, so we're unlikely to get to the second part.)
Cybersecurity for the People: How to Protect Your Privacy at a Protest
The majority of the Tories wanted to stay in the EU. They didn't want the referendum. They provided the referendum because the public demanded one by giving a single issue party (UKIP) 12% of the vote at the previous general election.

The Tories wanted to remain in the EU, yet when the electoral commission recommended they change the wording of the question because it favoured staying in the EU, they obliged.

Personally, I still think the question was biased towards the status quo and should have been:

"Should the UK be a member of the European Union"

Rather than what it actually was:

"Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?"

I wonder if the remain vote would have been even lower with a less bias question?

Referendum wording is generally heavily scrutinised. I'm sure if we had more regular referendums a process would be created to make sure it remained that way.

Instant Articles is the best experience I've ever had reading an article online. It loads lightning fast and doesn't have bloated layouts or obtrusive advertising. I was shocked the first time I [unknowingly] clicked on an Instant Article.

I think it's best for the internet's health that Instant Articles is slowly declining, but it did show me how much better the experience could be if people paid attention to that stuff.

(I'm only commenting on the bigger picture, nothing about the Guardian specifically. They actually have one of the better websites out there.)

This hasn't been my personal experience, I've been getting better results (the past year or so) with DuckDuckGo.
I like your point of view. Showing an interest is not the same as rude. I guess I really depends on the person who has to deal with constant questions to handle the encounter with Grace. Which I realize is not fair and people can't be expected to always be their "best" self around strangers.

I admire the author of the article for her confidence and courage. I could stand to be more like her.
Arch-Delugevpn: Arch Linux Running Deluge and OpenVPN
Yeah, I don't get people's weird obsession with trying to explain away blackhat marketing when it's perfectly normal and acceptable to put your own interests ahead of Facebook (assuming you aren't breaking a real law).
But that experience, isn't exactly information. You can't really learn it in a book... My comment was about passing on the required information -- and how much of it there is (little) and how well it's hidden (very well, in a pile of things that will waste anyone's time.)

your sibling comment (by andromeda__) gives a good example.
An MPI implementation is free to spread traffic over available transports; there's nothing in the design of MPI that prevents such a configuration.

The improved performance of HDFS over Infiniband comes at a price (the aggregation switches are much more expensive and challenging to configure; there are far fewer network engineers who understand them).

As for the paper you linked to- I see numerous problems. First is the fact that HPC codes spend 60% of their time checkpointing to deal with MTBFs. This is not a problem in data warehouse applications- failures of components do not affect the job's progress (except in the form of slower progress). Second, the paper has the checkpoint data buffered in local RAM then spilled out to local or remote storage. That's fine, except that you're still at danger if the node crashes before the data is committed to true backing storage (or has a way to recover the spill process after repair/reboot).

I hadn't seen MatchBook before, thanks for the referral.

Hello, I'm the author of this project. Let me explain a few things:

1. The goal of this project is to let people "Use Ruby-like syntax build Go-like performant api servers".

2. The "Ruby-like" means Ruby-like syntax because I am a Rubyist and I think using Ruby to develop project is fast.

3. Using golang is because I want to build a http server library upon go's http package, which I think is a very good choice for writing api servers. And of course I might use goroutine directly in the future.

4. Making rooby compilable is just a feature I personally like.

5. You can see this project as a experimental language for a relatively small goal (see the first point above) + I like writing Go, then you won't be so surprise why I created it and not using crystal instead.

6. I really didn't expect rooby would gain so many traction, thanks for all your opinions :)
As a anecdote, I have some very interesting and impossible to miss scarring on my arms. I don't hide it, and it is definitely something I know people are curious about. Yet pretty much no one I have interacted with in the last 7 years since moving to a new city knows why, because no one asks.

People I sit with and talk to from 9 to 5 every day, not a word. You notice people glance, you notice some cashiers hesitate, yet just three or four people from memory have asked and it is always an abrupt and outright "so what's up with that?"

I am thankful because it really doesn't affect my life or personal image and so that mentality reflected by others behavior lets me feel justified in that outlook. But there are definitely days where I wonder if people don't ask out of courtesy or because they just don't care either way, and if I am feeling a bit lonley that can be a negative thing rather than a positive.

Mostly though, I just appreciate that people treat me the same as if I didn't have them, whether they have asked what happened or not.
Basically you're explaining that they earned a monopoly for a reason. That's true. And there are always true advantages to monopoly (standardization, economy of scale, prices stability ...). However monopolies harm the economy and the public good in the long run.

See, that works for any past monopoly:

I don't have a strong opinion about whether or not Microsoft should be regulated or not. [...] It's bizarre to accuse the company that made the PC into what it is today of somehow crushing it.

I don't have a strong opinion about whether or not AT&T should be regulated or not. [...] It's bizarre to accuse the company that made the telephone into what it is today of somehow crushing it.

I don't have a strong opinion about whether or not Standard Oil should be regulated or not. [...] It's bizarre to accuse the company that made the oil industry into what it is today of somehow crushing it.
Agreed. I can't believe the author thinks google is only marginally better than the others. On several occasions I forced myself to use bing only but almost always found myself running the same searches on google for everything but the simplest queries.
Use of time for things that the programmer values, even if you don't, is not a waste.
Google produced more relevant results than Altavista. That's about it. They didn't build or save the internet. Without them, search engines would have improved anyway and we'd be just fine. Google was never a charity and we don't have to protect such corporate behemoths from criticism.
Aside from the issue mentioned in the article, there's also the issue of how a rich snippet can appear to be a deliberate endorsement by Google. Because the process is automated, with no checks and balances, some odd stuff gets out there.

Yesterday I have read another submission [0] on HN, linking to an interesting NYT article "Is It Time to Break Up Google?" [1].

Why has it been flagged?

"The USA Today spokeswoman told CJR that they flagged the issue for Facebook after noticing an unusually large uptick in followers from the aforementioned countries. “Since we first brought this issue to Facebook’s attention, we have been in close communication with them and look forward to a swift solution that prevents this illegitimate activity from happening on our Facebook page in the future,” Maribel Wadsworth, Gannett’s chief transformation officer, told USA Today Friday."

The article suggests USA Today brought this to Facebook's attention. If USA Today had been doing this on purpose, even indirectly, that would be a bizarre move. We also have nothing from Facebook contradicting this claim.

You can hypothesize nobody asked Facebook about it or that USA Today is now lying to try to save face, but those would be hypotheses that are possible, but not currently supported by the facts. It is a reasonable interpretation that USA Today is indeed a target of some sort and not the instigator. I am also not sure exactly what the bots sought to gain from this, but I've seen enough similarly crazy things that made sense once an explanation came out that I'm willing to give some time for such an explanation to come out.

I've got no love lost for the media but they're still shining beacons of virtue compared to the people authoring and running bot networks for this sort of thing, so I don't find it that hard to trust USA Today enough to consider their version to be the most likely story. (Not the only story, but pending further data, the most likely one.)
>What gives it roughly 80 percent of the online search traffic is first mover advantage. Back in the mid-'90s[...] Google was just a little bit better than the others

This is bullshit. Yahoo! and Altavista were there before Google. And by calling Google's page rank based search algorithm "just a little better than others" the author reveals his own ignorance.
Rlogin is mentioned. Read the first email in the article - the one to IANA:

"I have written a program to securely log from one machine into another over an insecure network. It provides major improvements in security and functionality over existing telnet and rlogin protocols and implementations."
To phish people. Bots (like on Tinder, dating websites, selling websites, etc) will make the same post to a ton of different groups, and then send the people who message them to phishing links.
Top 5 Reasons to Completely Outsource Your Development Projects

"The institution of National Service is largely regarded as a social equaliser, which embodies fairness, equality and identity. More than 94% of respondents agree"

Which doesn't argue against my point at all. I already illustrated where classism comes from and how it can only be one component. You'd have to address the others. Instead, you said a bunch of people surveyed in a police state said the police state plan was good. I've even read plenty of dissent on Singaporeans' blogs and stuff on that one so it's extra funny to see such overwhelming support.

In any case, what numbers and citations you should look for are what percentage of Singaporeans change classes and which transitions those work. Especially how often the poor become Middle Class and how often lower classes become upper class. Additionally, how often do upper classes become lower class. These will assess how much education and performance really matters vs their background or social connections. For example, in the U.S., the last number I saw quoted was 90+% of people stay in their economic class no matter what efforts put in. Most on boards or C-level positions also started as middle or upper class in "Ivy League" schools. So, our system is rigged to operate based on politics and reinforce current class situation as proven by its results.

So, what's Singapore's numbers on that? And could you even get accurate ones with its control over media?
It would probably help if you provided any kind of actual argument for vue.js being so superior other than the head shaking and vague claims about react not having "patterns" and "elegance".

For the record, I have been in web development for as long as you are, so that alone does not seem sufficient to immediately see the of superiority of vue.js over everything else.
YESTERDAY’S BROAD POWER OUTAGE LIKELY CAUSED BY GEOMAGNETIC STORM
Why do you think she was flagged as a bot? I think it's more likely she was flagged as a scammer. To receive such a high volume of inquiries suggests something unusual going on. In her case it sounds as innocent as giving away an item that is in high demand, but in many cases a similar pattern might be a deal that's "too good to be true."

I'm old enough to remember the techies backlash over targeted advertising in Gmail.

It seemed the google's PR started throwing cash at it for years to "educate" the public.

The general public appeared to be a complacent herd of sheep like creatures that would embrace convenience over everything.

Maybe in your circles Google is "cool". In my circles it's necessary evil. The platform/network effect is so strong there is no escaping it. The US is invested my money wise too deep and won't do what they had the backbone to do with SO and the rest.

So, "when, if ever", won't be anytime soon.

Meanwhile, innovation suffers. They killed chat protocols interfaces (pure monopoly abuse since they have most users), the buried end-to-end encryption, they killed bunch of competing businesses by promoting their side businesses on the search page higher, etc.

Http2 could have had things for the users in it (if one goes through the troubles of upgrading a network layer). Instead it had "cut off download at instant if requested" and other features that made web crawling (though not necessarily browsing and developing) easy.

Going forward, they will be cleaning the advertising agency landsccape to get rid out of competition with :
Amp ( since they​ de facto own mobile browsing and Android).
Desktop displayed ads (they announced as blocker in chrome, and guess twice whose ads will be allowed through).

I can enumerate all day.

TLDR: they are out of the 'cool' startup area, and firmly into the deep monopolistic abuse waters.
My rule is that shell scripts with growing complexity must be converted to a language with clearer and more bulletproof treatment of data, like Python. This also happens any time I want to support several command line arguments.

At one point in history, options were more limited. Now, it is just not worth the time to read code that may or may not have obscure errors in its very expressions that you must understand before you can even begin to examine the real purpose of the program!
IronRuby and JRuby are both implementations of Ruby; aside from any trademark issues that maybexist (I kind of doubt there are any) the usse of Ruby in the name is communicative of accurate information. Using something that's natural pronunciation is as a homophobe of Ruby for something that is not a Ruby implementation is probably misleading and and undesirable for it's effect on being able to clearly talk about the project.
One could argue that if a "business" is only providing one sentence answers to questions then it's not really a business in the first place.

The owner seemed to have found a very small gap and it was closed shortly after.
I think it's a legitimate question, and probably should be discussed more anyway. The article misses the bigger issue to me though. Their market share in search, browsers, ad networks, maps, phones, and email creates an opportunity for abuse that's unprecedented. I'm worried about what they could do with all that. We depend quite a bit on their internal culture right now to prevent it.

Imagine what a "god mode" app at Google might look like.
> I don't hate anyone. I just don't support feminism because it creates bad manners and double standards.

To be frank, I've had a similar experience before. I don't care if you're young or old, black or white, male or female. I'll generally hold the door for you, just like I tend to use "sir" or "ma'am." Nothing conspiratorial about it, but the only time I've had someone give me shit for being polite it's been that same kind of situation. College campus, feminist bullshit.
Who cares. Fake news.
If Apple replaced my non-working iPhone or laptop I would absolutely want that peice of hardware shredded when it left my hands. And you should too! The reality is that it's probably not cost effective for them to pull out the storage and destroy the data in a reasonable way.

However now that the apfs file system and secure enclave all but guarantee my data will not be recovered I'm okay with it being recycled.
You can try some places use reclaimed hot water from industrials sources for metropolitan heating.
I work in cleantech, and the smart people working on carbon capture and conversion (Opus12, etc.) are assuming renewable prices will drop to the point where they can use excess power to run the catalyst reactions needed.

Unlike the grid, carbon capture power doesn't need to be dispatchable. So you don't need to worry about the intermittemcy of solar and wind.

The same strategy is true for water desalination. They can run the plants whenever there is cheap power.

I am quite enjoying it these days. It presents the same news from various news sources and highlights a crowd sourced 'bias' rating for them. So, you can see the same story side-by-side from Fox News, New York Times, WashPo, etc.
Indeed! Thank you for all the great work.

I was aware of large-scale project a few years back called FOSSEE (centered at IITB) which was promoting Python and Scilab. I'm not sure if they're still alive or whether they've run out of funds. Prabhu Ramachandran (of the Mayavi fame) was one of the key people behind it. Seems like something they ought to be funding.

Anyway, kudos to Simons foundation for funding Julia's development.
Sure, but scp uses the same port as ssh so the underlying protocol has to deal with both terminal and file copying commands.
I also really dislike that often the source of the information is deliberately obtuse.

Even with the Wikipedia snippets, finding the actual link to the article is not quick and easy.

Also, what is the goal of rich snippets for Google?

Making it quicker and easier to find the information you are looking for? Probably... in part.

Reducing the probability that a user actually clicks on a link and keep them right on Google for the next search and ad opportunities? Probably also.

It's really disheartening to see the media proclaim things like "quantum cryptography is unbreakable" with fundamental misunderstandings about what it even is, how it works and what its limitations are.
>It's not a terribly interesting story IMO.

You'd be surprised in how interesting me and other find this story.

Of course if you grew up talking all these for granted, and don't have an interest at how things were back then, it might not be.

But there are tons of interesting stuff in this short post, including the informality of how SSH started.
Presently extinct but trying hard to genetically recreate them?
...and for this it is really small, really nice! The asm.js blob is just a 180 KByte download, including the WebGL and WebAudio wrapper (and it looks like an ogg-vorbis and/or mp3 software decoder is also included, although I don't know which one is used in the emscripten build).
The less likely scenario you speak of is the actual scenario.
> The moral of the story? Same as always: quote, quote quote. Even when things appear to work.

I would like to propose a different moral of the story, which is, as soon as your shell script requires control flow beyond executing a series of commands one after another, switch to a better programming language, such as Python.
> The majority of the Tories wanted to stay in the EU. They didn't want the referendum. They provided the referendum because the public demanded one by giving a single issue party (UKIP) 12% of the vote at the previous general election.

No, they provided the referendum because their leadership thought that the split within the party on the issue (while the majority was against leaving, there was a substantial minority for it) would result in loss of vote share if the party was unambiguously for staying, so they promised a referendum to keep their internal coalition intact.
Google is profiting off those one sentence answers. If it's enough of a business for Google, I suppose it's enough of a business for the people doing the actual work to find the answers.
Call me cynical, but I'm betting USA Today paid for millions of fake followers to pump up their stats (making them a more attractive platform for native advertising), got wind that Facebook was onto them and decided to break the story first and act like they were the ones to tell Facebook about it in the first place to save face. Nowhere else besides this woman's quote does it say that Facebook initiated their bot-destroying campaign after USA Today told them about all of their fake followers. They're lying, plain and simple.
