> When did Gruber call the AMP team hacks?

The link of this thread was originally [0].

Although he didn't use the word 'hack' himself, Gruber said:

"Google has no respect for the platform. If I had my way, Mobile Safari would refuse to render AMP pages. It’s a deliberate effort by Google to break the open web."

So he sees them as intentionally sabotaging things.

I don't disagree. If you have done this much research though, you could actually set up a little case study on this, write an eBook with nothing more than screenshots on how the price changes, and put it up for sale as something which will save people atleast $x per month. :-)
It's really sad that Amiga retro ecosystem always tries to put a price on everything. For example, MUI is still "shareware" with some silly license files. Come on, give it away as freeware or open source already!

Keeping this stuff closed source is of course their right as copyright holders but it cannot be a good business and just pisses people off.
You're right. I worded it poorly.

For anyone who's into sailing, they'll know about these amazing modern craft, but most people won't. I was hoping to convince those who aren't engaged in sailing at all to watch the Americas Cup this year (because it's going to be awesome).
That's not up to subreddits — that's a site wide rule.

My original method was to just move my project to I:\home\projects\dead.

After accumulating a few hundred of these, I started going back and reviewing what I'd accumulated - a short one-line description, and a screenshots folder, following a naming convention under a ".projnfo" folder (description.txt, visibility.txt, screenshots\*.png, etc.), with a quick program to accumulate these into a single HTML page overview. My latest iteration of this actually adds shortcut links to launch VS, git shells, etc. and dynamically updates, but ditched the screenshots (for now): http://i.imgur.com/gbj1Cr5.png . I keep telling myself I'll eventually spin off a public version of that page, but so far I haven't. But a common goal: Make it absolutely trivial/low friction to give something a quick summary.

Most recently, I'm now also trying to embrace the idea of "always be shipped (tm)" as a means of combating my tendency to get hung up on perfectionism - in the most extreme form, this means a public github project and an empty initial commit is my first push, the second commit maybe adds something that's actually usable, and the third commit is a .nuspec so I can package it and reuse it at a whim (completely ignoring the question of if it's even worth reusing.) This also encourages me to pick up an old project against instead of rewriting a whole "new and improved" version - easier to just fix the old one than go through all the effort of .nuspec s and new github projects etc etc etc... and in this state, "closing" a project is a simple matter of no longer committing to it. No cleanup necessary before making it public - it already was public!

I still have some projects that I never make public, or only make a github page public for though.
You don't need XML/XHTML for structured markup and document-oriented web pages. SGML, on which HTML is based (or was based on originally), and which still can formalize HTML in all its glory [1] (my project), is much more capable and user-oriented than XML anyway.

XML was devised as an "easy" subset of SGML to eventually form the basis of HTML, SVG, and other web vocabularies; it just didn't make it into the mainstream web. But that's no reason to give up on formal methods for content engineering alltogether. I can assure you SGML works just fine for the modern web.

Now if you mean that web standardization as a community-driven process has come to an end years ago, and has been taken over by Google et. al. in the form of WHATWG, with folks cheering at taking HTML out of the hands of W3C, I agree this is an unsustainable situation given the importance of HTML (though, personally, I also like HTML5 and what WHATWG has been doing).

If you have experience, you'd know it's time consuming and taxing. You either like this time wasting, or you benefit from this taxation (working for MS?).
Haven't watched the video just yet, but Jobs also once said:

"Man is the creator of change in this world. As such, he should be above systems and structures, and not subordinate to them."

I think it served as part of Apple's internal mission statement in the 80s or something.
As far as I can see, they choose to do so, contrary to your claims. They prefer to save money, not to waste it on duplicating of effort.
Good thought :)
When I put out the first version, I haven't really understood the consequences or its effectiveness; In fact it had my code name in the greeting :(
When it first appeared, people found it amusing; but it quickly went out of control and kept appearing again and again. This annoyed people. I was in trouble. I had to quickly find a solution in that panic.
I suppose, I expect more from NYT
Zero-tolerance policies have not served U.S. schools well, and I don't think they'll serve companies any better (c.f. Donglegate).

The rest are seriously worth getting behind and pushing.
> Our brains are back propagating, recursive neural networks that are consistently making predictions about the next input in the stream of input signals as it changes over time.

Neural networks are a simplistic model of how our brain works, not the other way around.
I think society itself must change. It needs to be more inclusive and forgiving. Having a test implies a success/failure context. That alone is enough for certain psyches to give up. If they perceive their "life as a failure" they won't even try for yet another test. Get rid of the tests.

Maybe ask kids what they want to study? We all know you get further with carrots than sticks.

As for income, who knows. Surely in a world where CEOs make in hours what average people make in a year there are compensation issues.

Thanks for your perspective, and it makes sense from your point of view.

But what about the problem the grandparent raised, which is that with one-time payments, after a while, the income from the app decreases to below the cost of maintenance, at which time the rational choice for the developer is to stop taking a loss, and instead abandon the app and build another one to try to get more revenue.

Whereas, a subscription incents the developer to continue investing in the app. Even if the total amount of money earned over the lifetime of the app is the same.

BTW, you don't expect new features to be delivered unless you pay more. That's perfectly reasonable. But many users expect regular updates. To which my response is: Sure, but pay me regularly.

I think whichever way we look at it, we don't end up with a good solution to this problem :)
I agree that no good food come out of the microwave, but the reason is in the ingredients not in the owen. Cooking good Chinese food, for instance, do not require "many many tools", just the basics you'd find in every kitchen in China, but it requires freshly cut veggies and meat, and different spices, and none of what you eat was processed in a factory (except msg maybe)
That's evidence, not proof. We still don't have enough evidence to say conclusively that Dark matter is as we currently imagine it. And of course the same can be said about MOND.

Here's Milgrom's interpretation of the bullet cluster: http://www.astro.umd.edu/~ssm/mond/moti_bullet.html
I might agree with the conclusion, but I mostly disagree with the rest

Humans making plans? Religion? That came as an afterthought and it's mostly forced through society (living the moment). Most people, most of the time will do what gives them pleasure right now instead of what might give them a reward later on. One just needs to look at obesity/lack of exercise/smoking, those are big problems.

The past is important, because all the predictions we do are based on past experiences even if there might be some random factor. Even artificial neural networks learn with time and what happened in the past is ingrained onto them.

Thinking about the future is certainly good but unless people fix their mistakes the outcome will be the same
Is that because there is no business model behind it, or is it due to the high risk of scfewing up?
I like the name you already have. You should keep it.
I have to say that I don't agree with all the detail, and a small number of wrong-headed disgruntled employees need to be restrained for the benefit of themselves and everyone else around them, but I do agree that actually dealing with unnecessary and nasty behaviour rather than hiding or even encouraging it is the way to go.

Use the Index Luke is an excellent resource about relational database performance tuning as well: http://use-the-index-luke.com. I bought Markus Winand's book, it's extremely clear and concise (not the thick technical reference you would expect). Being able to understand the internals of modern database systems is great.
I've got to echo some of the other comments here: Temple of the Dog always struck me as "meh", especially the video for "Hunger Strike". Any number of Soundgarden or Pearl Jam songs/videos were way more artistic and influential.

It's almost if the author is a) a super-fan that is looking at the past with special rose-colored glasses, or b) they didn't actually experience that time period and are watching the videos now without the proper context.

BTW: shout-out to anyone that listened to 104.1 (Orlando) in the early-to-mid 90s. What a great radio station...

“Please help me find and prosecute this man”
This is such an eggshells issue. I think a lot of people probably feel extremely reluctant to speak openly about this, or try to diagnose it, and that seems very bad, because children are suffering and their futures are being compromised.

I don't doubt for a second that the school systems are letting kids down, at least somewhat. I'm a huge critic of public education, based on bitter experience. On the other hand, schools cannot be expected to produce great results no matter what else is happening in a child's life.

If we were to look at the demographics of these schools, would we find that 99% of the students are black? It matters in this case because there's an epidemic of fatherlessness among American blacks, and it's known to be very detrimental to the development of children. Who knows how much of a role this factor plays, but not mentioning it seems like a doctor not mentioning smoking might be the culprit in a patient's cancer.

If I'm wrong and there's some other more likely smoking gun in this situation, please tell me. I would like to know about it.

I remember most people switched directly from CGA to SVGA in the early 90s. I only remember a couple computers with EGA at friend's homes, and offices were mostly CGA and Hercules too (if they had PCs at all, and not 3270).
Incredible story! Thank you for posting it.
People have been using the internet to share files for a long time, it's one of the most common things people want to do.

If the SMB implementations in Windows and Samba had been done with due attention to security requirements of networked software, it wouldn't be especially risky either.
People throw the word "constitution" around, but it seems entirely reasonable for the US constitution to allow you to sign away access to your state's courts. For federal, I'd support it, but it's not clear to me that you currently can:

https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/articleiii

My argument against it would be:

* "The judicial power of the United States, shall be vested in one Supreme Court, and in such inferior courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish."

* "The judicial power shall extend to all cases, in law and equity, arising under [...] the laws of the United States,"

If you sue somebody for selling your information, that's a "case [...] in equity", and the basis for your lawsuit should have some basis in federal law. So only the US court has judicial power over it. I'm not sure if Congress has the power to designate arbitration companies as courts, since this law instead uses the commerce clause:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Arbitration_Act

A counter-argument could be that for breaches of contract specifically, you could write arbitration into the contract and the US court should clearly side with the arbiter in that case. The arbiter wouldn't have the power to send police or anything, but it would have the power to make a decision that the contract defers to and which the court would use.

If it's not a breach of contract but is instead e.g. your landlord keeping your security deposit according to an illegal contract, I don't think a court would defer to an arbitrator's decision to uphold it.

Of these three cases(arbitration over state law, arbitration over breach of contract(but enforced by US court), arbitration over illegal contract), only the 3rd seems that it could be a violation of US constitutional rights.

The article is also misleading in this aspect: It's not possible for companies to do anything for your constitutional rights. If they could, they would instead be employer-provided benefits. Similarly, it probably doesn't make sense to ask Congress, your representative, or your state legislature for a law "protecting your constitutional rights", which I expect would be the next follow-up ideas.

My question: Do the people complaining about a constitutional right to access the court necessarily also think the commerce clause is too broad? That seems unlikely to me.

Another question: Would the same people complaining about arbitration complain if e.g. the company said, "Either sign away your right to arbitration, or lose $10k/year in salary that's going straight to our umbrella insurance"? If you banned arbitration, the extra risk would probably come out of your salary even if the company doesn't tell you and even if you find it hard to understand exactly how.
Really?

93% of Android devices don't support Vulkan, PS, XBox, UWP don't support Vulkan and Nintendo Switch API is mainly NVN, in spite of having Vulkan support as well.

That already exists today in some form. Several sites cross check prices and track item prices over long time periods and store historical data for you to browse. You can even set alerts.

"If you really want to..."

This is exactly what we've done with our product, Elevate Web Builder, so I can definitely attest to the fact that it is 100% correct. Our product uses a compile-to-JS transpiler and has its own layout engine, uses dynamic CSS, has update cycles to allow for efficient DOM updates, etc. The only real downside is that text measurment must touch the DOM and is really slow, so the layout engine has to perform a lot of intelligent caching and "measurement-avoidance" techniques to ensure that it measures text as infrequently as possible.

Ask HN: How do I switch from being a passive consumer to an active producer?
Lately I've realized that I consume way too much. Be it Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, HackerNews, Youtube, etc. Even though I have a job and I deliver value to society on a dialy basis, I feel like I could contribute more.

Another thing that is holding me back I think is the fear of commitement. I have a partially ready youtube channel, with two videos, not listed. I tell myself that I'll open the videos to the public and then start realising videos on a weekly schedule but the commitement seems like a such a burden on me that I don't think I'll be able to keep up.

I also would like to contribute to open source software projects, or write more for my blog, but I just can't force myself to do it. This is kinda a mix of fear (of what?!) and procrastination habits.

Am I pressuring myself too much to make the switch? How did you do it?
Only FOSS devs see it as time consuming and taxing, professional game studios see it as an opportunity to explore hardware performance to the last drop.

For anyone with experience in graphics programming, the time to triangle is just like doing hello world or playing fizz buzz.

The last time I set my feet inside of a game studio was more than a decade ago, but it started with an S not M, and I still have contacts in the industry.
"People tend to place high value on products they partially have created. Hence, the name IKEA effect." - Frankly, I've never met anyone who thought that IKEA products are of particularly high value. They're great because they offer modern-looking furniture that even students can afford, but at least where I live, the middle class stops considering IKEA once they leave student status behind, unless it's for book shelves or stuff like that in the study or the basement, i.e, not for rooms you actually live in.
Yeah that might be true but I like the site, I hope they don't fall like buzzfeed
Before launching a product, I followed the advice to build up an audience first. For instance, having a website, that is somehow in the context of the product, and write about the topic constantly. Afterward you can redirect the audience to your product.
You're right, specialization is what makes the economy work. But where do we draw the line? Do we learn something just because it's useful to our carrier? Should we abstain from learning things, because we need to specialize?

For example having a working knowledge of lexers and regular expressions could enable someone to write efficient scrapers. Or it could supply one with enough intellectual excitement to keep one's computer skills alive.

I am in law school, will be graduating next year. From an economic perspective, all my computer knowledge is moot. But I can't let computers go, much of my identity is built upon my ability to work these machines.

It's true:

> There is obviously too much in the world to learn and I would say even to much in the field of computer science than for any one person to know it all.

However that is not a bad thing, computers provide enough excitement to pass the hours, make you feel smart and give you a sense of connection to a whole community of like-minded tinkerers.
They probably did it just like Sony did with OpenGL ES 1.0 for PS3, to test waters.

For the rest of your question, sorry NDA.
For evolution to happen naturally on genetic level, is a process that takes millions of years. It would take a concerted effort across thousands of generations of humans to see any meaningful change. The likelihood of this happening is nil to none. More realistic avenues of achieving something like what you talk about are likely through genetic engineering, nanotechnology integration, etc.
>as well as my experience here in the UK Asians tend to be quite liked.

Worth pointing out that "Asian" in the UK would normally refer to South Asian people - i.e. Indians, Pakistanis, etc. If you meant Far East Asian people, you'd specify that, or the actual country.

> I hope it sticks to user engagement/meta-type posts (IAMAs) rather than being an account that acts as an auto-submitter of WaPo headlines to r/news/politics/worldnews.

A friend of mine is the lead mod for the /u/washingtonpost account, and his primary goal for that account is engagement. Even as far as submissions go, they are trying to create content crafted for reddit, such as those news rollups they're experimenting with. His personal goal is for the account to become like the Wendy's Twitter of Reddit--a bit more irreverent and conversational, and willing to joke around with users. So far he's gotten a generally warm reception, especially when he pops up in unexpected places like TIL.

Part of the opportunity for them with reddit is that it's a bit less ephimeral than Twitter or Facebook, which creates new opportunities. As long as a piece of content is relevant, it stays on top of people's front pages, and WaPo can jump into the thread to answer popular questions, which then everyone can see. In a way, this actually gives them an incentive to not auto-post and let stuff rise organically, so they can engage in the right places.

As an avid redditor, I really feel like they have the right idea (it helps he's into the same things as reddit in general) and I feel like good things are gonna come of this over the next few months.
Just as fascinating as Steve Jobs’ comments are the prescient privacy concerns voiced by David Burnham. Incredible that over 35 years ago, the impact of computers on civil liberties was already in public discussion.
The deep state unraveling has nothing to do with Trump whatsoever and dates back at least as far as the Snowden leaks and cablegate.
