Agreed, but I can't imagine with a sample space of just 7700 paint names that it would generate turdly any more frequently than bvlogd or a gazillion other marginally pronounceable six letter strings, without some additional bias not mentioned in the article.
AFAIK the benefit of changing passwords regularly is highly debatable anyway. If so, I think "Don't change it, since you would have to memorize the new one" is more logical advice.

In the recent stack overflow developers survey, Dart was actually ranked as one of the least liked languages to use. This has actually put me off the language a little bit.

I'm curious if anyone with more experience with the languange could explain why this is and what it means.
Funny, I don't have personal experience with either, but I'm always reading that Google's customer service is abysmal (i.e. non-existent). But then, maybe you just haven't needed them yet.
The Calculus of Service Availability
There's a lot of interest in formally verifying things about the unsafe subset of Rust, for example the Rust Belt project: http://plv.mpi-sws.org/rustbelt/. One thing I've not well understood is how these efforts may be affected by some of the conversations around the unsafe code guidelines effort:

it's not always about thinking many moves ahead with chess - often it's a case of looking for interesting patterns on the board that you can turn into an advantageous situation. Did the other player king-side castle? Look for ways to pick away at their pawns. King and queen/rook within 2 knight moves of each other? Could be an opportunity for a fork. You pick up more of these patterns over time, and you can start to scan for chains of these types of attack/defense.
I'm the same but unfortunately not everyone is honest. I've met people who went to the beach during office hours and did almost no work. Then they bragged about it.

I'd be interested to see that. While yes people falling from a horse might be in trouble - generally horse will try to avoid danger themselves - and there would have been only so fast that you could ride a horse in a city, due to the roads available for this.
Is that a product your company sells? Or do you plan an open-source version? Seems like there would be a lot of interest in the OS version.. Could be good for marketing ;)
I learned hiragana and katakana using the "Kanji Study" app by Chase Colburn. On the google app store.

I don't know the guy, but the app is simply amazing. Repetion, through fun methods, I learned hiragana as I rode the Tokyo metro and katakana too. (It also helped that everywhere was both Kanas)

Since we're all talking about how we all picked up some Japanese, I thought I'd throw it out there. I normally never donate to apps, but this is one app that is amazingly well polished, has a beautiful UI and the UX makes me guility that I don't sit down and do it daily.

Hell, thanks to it, I can transliterate japanese songs into kana and with the Kanji learning moudles I had fun translating last names into english and saying them. Nothing helped me more in making friends at random mixers or networking events then seeing someones Japanese name, properly addressing them and embarrassing myself by talking horrible Japanese.

But, Reading it, it's amazing. The manga too, I can read all the manga now if it has nice usage of furigana. Hentai manga, does not, though.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mindtwiste...

Really, I don't know the guy, the app is great and, without it my time in Japan would've been greatly not as quality. I made friends, thanks to this app, that I know I will know forever.
You missed my point.

It doesn't have to be a mainstream kernel. The only important part is that it is a fixed kernel version so drivers and such does not need to be re-written with each new android release.

I can't emphasize how useful and important create-react-app is for the ecosystem.

The first and obvious benefit is being able to quickly create new projects without having to think about build infrastructure, which is honestly the most painful part of building a modern React project. create-react-app makes all the hard choices for you and gives you a reasonable set of defaults to work with. It's convention over configuration, kind of like Rails. It's a huge game changer.

The less obvious benefit is that it forces developers to fall into the pit of success by making it easy to do the right thing. Flow is supported out of the box, so adding type checking to your app is trivial. Jest is set up for you out of the box, so you have no excuse to not add tests. This new version includes support for code splitting, so there's no reason to ship bloated JS bundles to your users. Building a PWA is easy, so you start thinking about offline-first right at the start of your project.

I can't thank the team behind this little tool enough for making it so easy and so much fun to build React applications!

Let me ask a counter question.

How much innovation in other countries was stifled because of the way the US companies operate?

And to get back to Google and Facebook, these two companies are building walled gardens not unlike the way ISPs in the US operate. They either force the competition out or buy them. They do everything in their power to keep you inside their bubble. In a few years down the road, we may just end up with only the services those companies offer and no alternatives to go to, because everything that threatens their dominance will be suppressed with everything they got.

Just like the US ISPs are doing it and the US government is doing it.

The US getting some of their own medicine certainly isn't a bad thing. Maybe it'll wake them up.
You are probably downvoted because you are essentially saying "Use a database for the sake of using a database!" which is not very good advice. Use the best, simplest tech your problem needs. If a filesystem is sufficcient, that's really good because it's stupid simple and cheap to operate.
Ah, I misunderstood you then. I got the impression you mean that the mindset had changed. What you describe seems to indicate that the mindset is still the same, but the reality is changing. And in my opinion, this is exactly due to the mindset. Especially the thing about fees to sidestep the aversion to taxes. The police and eminent domain thing sounds like corruption, and maybe also correlates with your idea of freedom: if freedom is something which is enabled by society and the restrictions and opportunities that come with it, you risk some of your freedom if you act in a corrupt manner. If freedom is something that property gives you, and society is only there to protect your property because warlording is stressful, then trying to get away with small corruption becomes desirable.

Your last sentence confirms me in this. "The government" is made up of people who got into power for idealistic or selfish reasons, yet you refer to it as its own entity and concept. This gels well with the "lay of mine" concept of freedom, less well with the "we as a whole enable us all" flavour.

Obviously, I am biased, and I might be interpreting things. If so, please corrent my misunderstandings if you have the time.
2 Günde 1 Kilo Verme Diyeti
Uninterested in doing it by car maybe, but not uninterested. Just that we have good(ish) train, plane, ferry and coach services - most people I know (I'm British) will have traveled a lot in Europe.

Also, don't forget that doing it by car is pricey for us - another comment above quoted $2.50 or something a gallon in parts of the US - here we pay about £1.20 a litre currently - so for example the cost to my brother of driving his van from the UK to northern Portugal (which he does to take his tools with him) can cost about £360 - where as he could fly and then hire a car there for a week or two for less money (if having his tools to do up his house there wasn't the reason for visiting!)
Solid tips. Could you elaborate a little on 3? It's not something I've heard of before.

Yes. I lead a team that's writing a new piece of what can be thought of as enterprise middleware in Kotlin:

https://github.com/corda/corda

It's a distributed ledger/blockchain system being written for large, conservative banks and is around ~90%+ Kotlin code.

There's not much to say about it, it works fine, I wrote about it here:

Not really. You still have to do a some work to make use of PWA features. This release just integrates the sw-precache-webpack-plugin into the build system so it's easier to add a ServiceWorker to your app should you decide to do so. Here's the documentation: https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/blob/m...

Also, ServiceWorkers are not just useful on mobile! Applications targeting desktop browsers benefit from them just as much, especially if you're thinking offline-first.
Interesting, but it refused every link I paste into it. "Check your link and try again" for every form that works in my unlogged in browser. Example: this form generated with a default template http://docs.google.com/forms/d/1a4Pbyz9TmTidR-rD6U9q3sgC2jEI...

It would be nice to have a link to a contact form and report issues. Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn are not for that.
Indeed. There are places in Croatia where you see more German plates than Croatian in the summer.
Not if it's a side project.
Because "to" isn't actually syntax at all. It's an infix function that creates a Pair. You can alt-click it in the IDE to go to the definition.
I certainly dropped out of learning spanish with duolingo a couple of years ago (after maybe a few months). All that is left is how to order a beer, but with such a horrible german accent that at least one native speaker burst out into laughter when I attempted... Anyway, I went into it with a "let's see this works" attitude and looking back I'm surprised how far I even got. Low barriers to entry mean low barriers to exit. I guess without loss-aversion, say from investing in a private tutor, or some other form of skin in the game (distant relatives at the place, intense affection for the culture of the place, actually living there) it's hard to keep the motivation up. But I guess duolingo works for the later group.
I used the Warcraft 3 map editor a lot(13+ years ago) to teach myself programming. So maybe I can shed some light..

Dota 1 was originally a Warcraft 3 (a Blizzard game) custom map, built with the Warcraft 3 map editor. In Dota 2, practically every character is just a copy of a Blizzard character, because well, Dota 1 was made with Blizzard assets. They've since changed a lot of names to get around Blizzard IP. For example a character named "Windrunner" became "Windranger", "Skeleton King" became "Wraith King", etc..

One of the things I remember is when you open the application, you're first faced with a GIANT warning popup that stays open for 5-10 seconds. You have to agree to it in order to use the map editor, which includes the EULA.

They've based their entire game on Blizzard assets & have agreed to those terms over a thousand times... I think this is not going to be easy for them.
Love the vision of neutrality, but it feels disheartening that net neutrality has been broken with increasing number of platform companies.

Google's algorithm decide which content show up in search results, and Facebook's ranking model determines the news you will see.

Same wth app store, only apps that fit the "Apple philosophy" can get approved.

Since most of our times on internet nowadays are spent on platforms, it turns out unconsciously we've already lived in a "closed internet".
Great getting started page. Short and direct.

As a Kotlin noob, can someone explain to me why the Kotlin on-click listener doesn't need to specify onClick() like the Java one does?
Developing a Progressive Web App
Nothing drives me crazier than random restrictions on my password. I get that there's probably justifiable reasons to limit the number of characters, but if it's a character found on a standard keyboard, it should be available.
However it is a beta release which implies some rough edges.
I'd say it is the cost of fuel vs the cost of public transport. I've taken the train London-Paris for £58 return, or flown to Spain or Greece for less than £50 return with easyjet or similar. Even with 2 or three of us travelling it would cost far more than that to do it by car (plus have to sort out European insurance and breakdown cover), and then struggle to find places to park in Paris, and pay through the nose for it.

Instead I can get on a train to Paris for just over 2 hours, or I loved leaving work one day at 5pm, getting the plane to Amsterdam for £27 each way, and arriving there at 8pm UK time (9pm Dutch time), and was in the city centre drinking by 10.15. If I'd tried to do that by car...
Maintenance costs are about 1/3 of ICE cars, too.
> You're just creating terms that only mean "good regulation" and "bad regulation" and arguing that all we need is to have the good regulation but not the bad regulation. The business of separating the one from the other is the whole issue.

For starters I didn't create those terms. The second issue I have is your statement is completely unqualified, that the problem is separating them. Please qualify how they are the same or provide evidence. Right now you're just making things up or so it appears.

> Problem: Minors are gathering in outdoor community spaces to consume alcohol.

For one you assume it's a problem. It may or may not be. Your solutions are at best a false dilemma and are limiting choice when there could be and are a multitude of other options. If there's a point you're trying to make with your example it has gone well over my head.

> It's also trivial to devise regulations that will simultaneously be effective and inefficient. You can easily prevent elevator accidents by prohibiting elevators.

Yes... You can trivially make anything work or not work. What is your point? Are you attempting to say there is a triviality to making something safe and sound and/or economic in regards to regulation? I really don't at all know what your point is here. What is the relevance of this in the conversation?

Right now I'm very honestly, very, confused about what you're trying to say.
Came here and thought this is more of a discussion about human behavior and self-portrayal:

> Why Being Interesting Can Do More for You Than Being Useful

Because that is what I witness regularly.
"Few hundred thousand" ~= 300,000 /day

= 3.47 hits / s

"Insert time / record" = ~50 ms (according to the internet)

= 50 ms / s locked time.

So I'm guessing not. Even if at peak he was seeing 10x traffic, you'd only expect short delays from the database.
Also Italy, north Spain, Croatia. And Germany/Austria/Switzerland in winter season.

It might not be as widespread to travel long distances by car as it is in the US, but it is definitely not "very, very rare". I would even say it's common for many Dutch, Danish, German, Belgian, Polish (from what I can observe).
The 1.0.0 version is for the `react-scripts` package that `create-react-app` puts in your project. That's the dependency that anyone who's actually using `create-react-app` in a project is actually interested in (since projects created with `create-react-app` don't actually depend on `create-react-app` – it's just a simple CLI). `react-scripts` is the bulk of the project.
> Also I'm surprised when people assume the grammar is difficult - to me, the "flexible grammatical structures" as mentioned in the article are a good thing because it gives you more leeway to make "mistakes."

That makes speaking the language easier, but it makes understanding sentences harder in the beginning, because you get a bucket of word soup dumped on your head and have to figure out what is supposed to go where.

Of course, articulating yourself correctly is the bigger (or more long-term) challenge when learning a second language, but in the case of Japanese you have a higher up-front learning curve than with most other languages.
As others said, not a problem if you are using an IDE (and a specific one.)

Considering who authored the language, I am not surprised at all.
It's probably for the best those people aren't writing c/c++ ;)

I'd love to make them code in rust, their inability to write code, to even copy/paste it will save so many maintenance problems.

Could someone host this article on a platform that UK residents can access? I really want to read this, but the BBC UK doesn't let us see this!
It's also nice to be able to selectively cache some data offline so that users aren't greeted with a "you are offline" screen when they hit your web page without a network connection.

For an e-commerce website, this might be the user's shopping cart and favorites. For a note taking app, this might be the last note the user edited. For a Twitter client, this might be the user's drafts and the last 100 tweets on their timeline. This way, the app can say "you're offline, but you can still look at some of this data and do things with it, and we'll sync you up when you get back online".

Native apps already do this. E.g, try posting a picture to Instagram while you're offline.

Writing import statements actually slowed down my angular 2 development by a lot. I was trying to break down functions into tiny components and composite them together and ended up with lots of components in separate files.

Modularity is good and all, but explicitly declaring each single dependent component (external libraries and other internal components) when writing new components and adding new ones as you need more dependencies is quite painful and tedious.
I will never see #c5a2ab again and not think, "Stanky Bean." In fact, it looks like stankybean.com isn't registered.
I'm imagining just having it be a solid wall of #c5a2ab.
I swapped from Linux and the JVM to windows and c# 3 years ago and ran straight into a wall. While I thought it was a cultural thing, it's mostly a platform thing and that influence the culture. Its like developing whith a straitjacket and everywhere you turn there's a lockdown. APIs and frameworks feels not thought through and chunky. The language feels like an steroids addiction. It feels good and you feel the power and you get stronger and stronger, but suddenly weird things start happening and suddenly ugly things just pop out and you loose control. And then everything's a mess and you there's no way back.

There are some things which are nice but they clearly doesn't outweigh the downsides with the platform. It feels shiny and nice at first but if you know what you could do instead of having to deal with the "Microsoft-way TM" it's downright horrible. Don't get fooled by the "new shiny" part! :)
Even within a culture and ethnic group (and time period), beauty standards can vary considerably. Outside of those there can be large differences.

There are however heuristics that may work cross culturally. For example clear skin, and average sized generally symmetric facial features are generally considered attractive.
I never really understood what that meant. Server-side render it's not template generation? Time to learn how to read.

I do build a template and spit it out according to what is requested, but then a JS function runs to "fill in the blanks" with a secondary call for the missing data. I should probably get rid of the images formatting (based on aspect ratio) to fit into the tiles. I don't know...
War Robots has it all

I think you are right, the free market just don't exist if one ISP owns the network to your home.

My house in a tiny village in the north of Sweden had 100 Mbps up/down 15 years ago. My apartment in a slightly bigger town (2000 people) had 10/10 Mbps 20(?) years ago. All this was never above $35 per month. Right now we pay $28 for 100/100 Mbps including phone. And yes, it actually measures to 100/100 Mbps if you test it. I can freely choose between five providers with the click of a button.
Off topic but did you ever get round to supporting multiple currencies?
You are correct that it's like learning anything else. If you put the time in and are motivated and go about it the right way you can learn it.

But it's still "the most difficult language to learn". So it's worth taking that difficulty into account. For example one can learn Spanish, Swedish and Vietnamese in around the same amount of time it would take to learn Japanese.
My short story regarding community. A few years ago I wanted to add a feature to PL/pgSQL that was on their TODO list. I asked about the feature on a public list and while I was unknown to the community I immediately got a private email from a developer who contributed to that part of code. We discussed the required changes and I prepared a patch. He reviewed it and later was supporting during formal review.
