A lot of our highest-bandwidth conceptual thinking is non-verbal, which also throws a wrench in things.

I don't know that the advantage of the neuralink idea would necessarily be speed, though, so much as not having to either speak aloud (especially in a public place) or occupy your eyes and hands in order to convert your ideas to text.
Relational databases have their advantages and disadvantages just like NoSQL. They both make tradeoffs. Taking the trouble to understand which is the right tool for the job instead of following the latest fashion trend is what the article is about.
Just curious, how do you handle the vanilla-JS stuff?

1) inline with your view files

2) write them in separate js files and include them depending on the page

3) concat them into one big js file which gets included on every page

4) something else?
Journals are already under fire for privatizing publicly-funded research. They justify their existence by claiming to hold the research they publish to the highest standard, primarily through the peer-review process.

That this journal has now repeatedly failed in the most basic standard of quality control leaves it with zero credibility, and it therefore should immediately be shut down.
Because a large amount of Ontario/Quebec electricity came from hydroelectric sources, and because the energy utility company in Ontario is Hydro One and in Quebec Hydro Quebec, "hydro" has sorta become synonymous.

A programming aptitude test is just an IQ test with another name.

>One out of every two people I meet I am confident they could become proficient at programming given a solid learning environment.

That's quite possible, even if what I say is true. People tend to mix with people on their own intellectual level. The people you talk to enough to get a good estimate of their intelligence are unlikely to be randomly selected from the population.

If you believe average people can become good programmers, this implies you could make billions converting 100 IQ people into programmers and then undercutting everyone else. I predict you will fail, unless you figure out a way to vastly deskill the art of programming.
Are quantum chips supposed to replace the current CPUs and GPUs? Or are they supposed to be "just" another component that we connect to the CPU, the same way we connect GPUs?
"Just look how many black people live in poverty in the US, and how many are shot dead every day"

You've been reading a lot of propaganda online. You should look up how many white people, esp rural whites, live in poverty. The poverty problem comes from politics that hurt both races. Then, theres other areas where there's less poverty for both groups. Far as murder, I lived in a "murder capital" where we see a new murder on news every day. You forgot to mention how most of the killers are black, most of their victims are black, and usually from areas/upbringing that are black-controlled. Same in a few others. Funny thing is that the black commentators in media of that city do exactly what you did: mention only the data that more blacks are killed to imply something about non-blacks but don't mention that it's usually black people killing them.

You should stop listening to whoever told you that stuff. America is complicated given it's so diverse in politics, economic strategies, race, religion, and so on. Better to look at data from various areas from sources with different biases. Also, listen to comments from people from those areas to get their perspective. Then you'll begin to know something about the country I live in.
Might I ask what kind of applications you're developing?

While I generally like the idea of doing web applications the old-fashioned way depending on the requirements manipulating the DOM using vanilla JavaScript can quickly get out of hand.
Same here. VueJS is a much better version of what Angular 1.x should have been, and so much easier to work with.

Yes, by many metrics. They might no be the best academically perfect languages, but they both have been hugely resilient, influential, and/or successful, which is a good metric for considering what's "best".

like JS? Is it a best language?

C and lisp are very different examples of success - one has been dominant in business for decades and one was very influential but isn't really a business success today. Those are hugely different metrics - are you talking about popularity or core language design?

If you expand the definition for success that wide, then yeah, you'll find that all "successful" languages fit your standard because you don't have a very useful standard.

Yes, and PHP is also very good for what it does, with huge adoption and powering over 30% of the web.

Yes, but knowing pg's stance on blub, he probably wouldn't agree. But that's the issue with the claim - PG didn't really expand on it so you have no idea what he really means.

The fact of the matter is we simply don't have that many examples of successful languages. Maybe n < 29 which means that every example we pick of "this is how language design works" is choosing from a very small sample, perhaps not representative of anything and all successful due to various factors. Not a good way to make "rules".
It does, but about half that of coal. The reason for that is nearly half of the energy in burning natural gas comes from hydrogen(rather than carbon) atoms binding with oxygen.

The nonsense in your thinking is your belief that the two choices are System 5 rc and systemd, and that therefore "their path" must be the former. You need not have even read the headlined page too far to have found https://devuan.org/os/init-freedom/ which gives the lie to that. The Devuan people are quite wrong about Debian and OpenRC, but the point here is that they don't force upon you that binary choice any more than anyone else does and what they themselves outright tell you about their path contradicts your thinking.

The whole it-is-a-binary-choice-between-systemd-and-system-5-rc idea is bunkum, a myth. It wasn't true on Debian, where the hoo-hah had votes amongst upstart, OpenRC, systemd, and System 5 rc. It wasn't true on Ubuntu and Fedora, which had both been using upstart for years before their respective switches to systemd. It isn't true on Devuan, per what is right in front of you stated by the Devuan people theirselves. It is discussed amongst several other myths at http://uselessd.darknedgy.net/ProSystemdAntiSystemd/ . You are propounding it.
Well that's just a curious case of audiofoolery.
Not that I really disagree with you, but I find that "risks", "constraints", "end-users", "systems administrators", "testers", and "the business" are six separate forces, each pulling in their own direction, and you can't put them all first.

"In Singapore we have National Service. "

Although not in this debate, I am stepping in to point out that doesn't mean a thing to support your point. It even makes you look like you're stretching facts to cover up problems. Let me illustrate it with a more obvious example.

Let's say the country has rich people's kids ending up in rich people jobs, middle class mostly middle class, and poor rarely coming up. This is the U.S. rather than Singapore. Let's say we add NS to the mix where everyone is forced to do a specific thing. The economic structure stays exactly the same since that has nothing to do with it. It's people's money, ability to teach kids better/worse, and connections to institutions that increase effectiveness of those kids along with what opportunities they have. I'd be shocked if this didn't happen in Singapore simply because it happens everywhere that I can tell.
That depends on what you're trying to accomplish by speaking with them, doesn't it?

> “When a lot of the fake peer reviews first came up, one of the reasons the editors spotted them was that the reviewers responded on time,” Wager told Ars. Reviewers almost always have to be chased, so “this was the red flag. And in a few cases, both the reviews would pop up within a few minutes of each other.”

I have submitted late peer reviews before and felt really guilty about it. But with this new information I should be proud about my late reviews -- it helped make the fake reviews stand out!

We are so far from talking about this that your question is nearly meaningless. Quantum computing has not even been demonstrated yet. This "quantum supremacy" is for a highly contrived algorithm and set up that has very little if any real world use cases.

A generalized quantum computer able to run standard computing algorithms is very far in the future and so much basic research in computing science has to happen before it can be talked about meaningfully.

Can anyone recommend a decent overview of SDR these days coming from a software (non hardcore maths/physics background) perspective? A few years ago it seemed like a fascinating area but the hardware was still quite expensive. I guess it has gotten cheaper? I am mostly interested to see what kind of signals are in the local environment, and maybe increase my understanding of some common wireless protocols.

For "how should I build this", as opposed to "why isn't it working?", writing documentation helps.

For personal projects, typing up an email to the appropriate google group, explaining the problem and requesting help, helps me solve a problem about 50% of the time.

For work projects, verbal diarrhea into Slack is very effective but interrupts colleagues too much (though it does have the side effect of pulling in help on the occasions you really need it). I've been considering building a bot for that.

From time to time a quick visit to retractionwatch.com is a good way to understand how often Research papers have issues, from very minor ones up to something so big that it seems impossible that the article managed to be published at all.

Almost certainly the latter. QC is very good at highly specific jobs, like factoring or searching. Similarly to GPUs, getting the data from the CPU to the GPU is costly. For now and presumably for a very long time, QC has that problem but way worse. (And it wouldn't give you speed ups yet even if the cost was free -- but Martinis asserts that won't take long.)

Project Name:How to Create MarcoPolo App with React Native
This project will cover the development for the mobile app of Marco Polo. Marco Polo is an app that will connect outdoor enthusiasts to create community, create events and travel together with people from all over the world. App will be developed using react native. I will be using redux as well since its react after all. Backend is developed in Nodejs using Hapijs and mongodb.

Watch on link : https://www.liveedu.tv/justrdk/lVpbm-how-to-create-marcopolo-app-with-react-native/

Familiarity with hardware would be a good starting point - the author explained how he can made use the three tables used by the PPU to pick out objects and textures. There is a lot of information about the NES online which would be useful references.

Then a good set of debugging tools, which is possible for NES games as there are many different emulators written in all sorts of languages which would make for a good learning resource.

To get more involved, investate open-source emulation projects - building them yourself. Then get more involved - try to fix an open issue - which will help you get familiar with the project. Read up on reverse engineering and ask questions!
Who needs a book about SVG? When I needed to build charts I took couple tutorials plus searched answers on stack overflow. It's way more efficient than reading huge book.

Not every business interaction has to be executed as a business interaction. It might be safer, it might make you more money, but it's ultimately just two people interacting.

The landlord didn't sound like they wanted to bring in the full power of their role into play in the relationship, would have preferred it keep it to more of a gentleman's agreement - an arrangement which is absolutely not in the landlord's favor. That they chose to not take up that full mantel in most interactions is to the renter's benefit.

But is it joy for customers to use the stuff you wrote in it? So many of these opinions always focus on the developers having fun instead of wondering what experience is for the user and maintainers.
React is for complex/dynamic UIs. By using canvas, you kind of admitted that the old-school way isn't good enough for that case. Having said that, if canvas works and is better than React for your case, then great! Use whatever works.
>> Facebook promotes new paradigm with buzzwords: functional, virtual DOM, components.

In this case, Facebook please keep going, we need more promotion of buzzwords like for example "functional" in tech.

Seriously though, these guys are either trolling or they have absolutely no clue about how to decide what is good and bad in technology. Sounds like a grumpy old man, everything "new" must be bad.

Just for the record:

"Functional programming has its origins in lambda calculus, a formal system developed in the 1930s to investigate computability, the Entscheidungsproblem, function definition, function application, and recursion."
Or they turn over a good portion of that rent to a third party to do the actual maintenance and management of the properties (a big business in and of itself).
I write software which analyzes DNA. It's pretty interesting to hear the varied responses from lab staff when questions are asked. Many times, however, questions (or sometimes answers) end up being overridden by business needs (aka deadlines). Being a business, that's rather expected to happen now and then.

But it bothers me that many of the questions that end up being unanswered are typically some of the more fundamental questions I ask.
$300/month is a more realistic figure.
Find myself in agreement with both of you. As you say you can't put them all first, however I've found anecdotally that risk and constraints are disproportionally placed last in many orgs.

Of course, there's the opposite extreme too, where long time team members and management ivory-tower themselves to micromanage every tech choice and then prescribe it throughout an organisation without much input.

Are you trying to say that Kotlin is better than J2EE & XML? Why not comparing apples to apples?
>like JS? Is it a best language?

Not as much. But JS is the opposite of what PG describes in 2 ways:

1) It didn't grow out by people with a need to develop some specific app, and it wasn't organically designed to serve such use. It was created with a top-down dictum by someone who didn't write, and didn't have to write, web apps himself, and in fact at a time where web apps weren't even a thing: it was created for light behavioral scripting. And it gets even worse, as some higher-ups even influenced its syntax (again by dictum): "make it look like Java".

2) Similarly, JS didn't survive and thrived as some evolutionary selected best way to serve the web. It survived as the only way to serve the web, period. So we can't say if its success is not anything else that it having been forced upon everybody + the success of the web in general.

>Yes, but knowing pg's stance on blub, he probably wouldn't agree.

No so sure. Actually IIRC PG used Perl along with Lisp in Viaweb later days [1]? Not that far from PHP as far as elegance is concerned, but he knew it was a good tool for the job. ("Viaweb at first had two parts: the editor, written in Lisp, which people used to build their sites, and the ordering system, written in C, which handled orders. The first version was mostly Lisp, because the ordering system was small. Later we added two more modules, an image generator written in C, and a back-office manager written mostly in Perl.")
In Finland, most online stores allow you to pay for your shopping directly using your online bank. The way it works is the online store calls the bank's e-payment API, which in turn lets the user authenticate using their normal online bank credentials and accept the payment.

A few months back I did some research [1] on these e-payment APIs and noticed that one of the major banks had a serious flaw in their API implementation. It was possible for the end-user to manipulate the signed API calls to change the payment amount, effectively paying less than the actual price for products they buy.

I reported the issue to the bank and got a swift response where they acknowledged my report and said they were looking into it more closely. A few days later I got another email where they basically said "ok, this looks bad, and we can see it's pretty trivial to exploit, but... it's too expensive to fix, so we won't do anything".

I wasn't comfortable with this, so next I reported it to NCSC-FI/CERT-FI. They also agreed that it looked bad, but said that they had no way of forcing the bank to take action. So that got me nowhere either. I haven't heard from either NCSC-FI or the bank since, but the issue does appear to be partially mitigated now.

I've since found several other issues in the same bank's systems but haven't bothered to report them since they don't really seem to care.

Just 1 week ago [0], an HN article said that "Shadow Brokers exploits are patched or inactive on supported Windows platforms." In other words, no computers should be infected because Microsoft already dealt with the problem. However, >10,000 Windows computers are currently infected according to the linked article [1].

Further, take a look at the comments on that HN thread [0]. A lot of green accounts telling us that everything is just fine.

"How is this anything other than a straightforward win/win trade? The country gets work done for cheaper than hiring locals; the migrant workers make more than they could in their home countries."

You could say the same thing about impoverished minorities in the U.S. whose ancestors came from poor countries. It would still be racism to pay them or allow them less due to race. It's more amusing given the Singaporeans that show up in comments talking about how racist America is. Turns out Singapore is pretty racist and classist, too.
