It seems like the takeaway is not that galactic cluster anomalies support or break MOND, but that MOND is a way to reduce the general astroöbject mass anomaly problem to a modified gravity plus the cluster mass anomaly problem. This makes sense if the cluster anomaly is tractable (?) and there are no other problems created by MOND (the real question IMO).

The problem then is that we want to have enough examples where MOND "works" that we don't think we'll run into another cluster anomaly. However, there aren't too many types of objects in the sky. So we either need very good numerical evidence for MOND in all other systems (unlikely) or a solution to the cluster anomaly which might not be too hard, unless MOND is actually wrong of course, and that's a risk you often face as a scientist.

Bing works fine. The more people use them, the better they'll get. DuckDuckGo mostly feeds off other engines, but is also good.

I personally don't really recommend StartPage because you can't get away from Google's opinionated ranking on a site that provides Google results.

But in short, use other search engines and they'll get better. Stop giving Google your search behavior, it's what they use to keep themselves on top.

It occurred to me that never mind the left being in dire straits, we don't actually have a proper right wing option - ignoring the rhetoric, it seems like with Corbyn going hard socialist the tories have triangulated to the left. I think it's shocking that the deficit is now not intended to be eliminated until the 2020s - so every day we adding to the burden. I would expect a tory government to be advocating lowering of public spending and then passing on the savings as tax cuts.

Giving a theory a name doesn't mean it's a real effect. I would like to see a blind AB study that shows the effect is actually true and not someone's pet theory but which is actually false. I agree that the theory is nice and has explanatory power. Let's do a controlled study to see if it is real.
It's one of the standard iOS gestures and works nearly everywhere.

iOS is FULL of handy little things like that, but I'm not sure many of them are ever explained. You just have to stumble across it or read about it somewhere like reviews of the new versions of iOS.

Did you know in mail (and many other places) you can swipe table rows left or right for quick actions? Marco Arment recently changed Overcast to make features more visible because it seems many people, including power users, weren't even aware that gesture existed.

Now that I have an iPhone 7 re force-touch stuff can be very handy. But I forget it exists for weeks on end because I went so many years without it and it's totally hidden.

IKEA furniture is not "hard" to assemble per say. It's annoying and frustrating because the qc on hole alignment and how well they tap the holes is lacking. Coupled with cheap veneered particle board lowering the overall build quality.

I am pretty handy and have a ton of nice tools and have worked with my hands building things for a living for about 6 years or so and a software developer otherwise.

I actually just had to "fix" a crappy ikea chest of drawers because the particle board popped out of the dado in the rear piece so the drawer would rub on the next drawer down. Some cheap brackets were installed as a temp fix but a real fix would be to install a better bottom board that flexes less and to glue it in place rigidly.
I tried Duck Duck Go exactly because of the AMP issue. Its search results are bad enough that I couldn't keep using it even though I wanted to. I'm on Bing for now.
I wouldn't assume so unless you're comparing against a fairly naive JS implementation.

Copying strings between JS and asm.js/wasm is slow, so there's additional overhead just calling back and forth.

Reading through the C++ code it also uses std::string and std::map internally which are, well, somewhat slow and cache unfriendly. I'd expect the JS VM's types to generally beat these without too much effort (certainly the map, but the string depends on how its used and some other properties about it, e.g. if it's too big to fit in the small string buffer or etc).

Also, JS VMs have a much faster allocator than most malloc implementations, like the one bundled by emscripten (and this code doesn't seem to make much effort to avoid mallocs). They can/generally will implement the nursery as an arena and so you have a bump pointer allocation (which is only a small number of cycles for the common case). You pay for this later via GC, but the GC's are also fairly fast (with caveats, but I doubt they apply here for 99% of users).

TLDR: I wouldn't expect just using ASM.js or wasm to translate to a performance improvement for something like this. Of course, I could be totally wrong, but, well, there are no benchmarks...
Will be neat if it works. The problem with parallelization is that it's hard to get performance wins. There's a lot of benchmarking and you have to be careful to stay on the right side of Ahmadel's law.

Can the analysis be automated? I hope so. That would be cool.

Haskell itself is extremely amenable to this sort of thing but no one has figured out how to implement it AFAIK. It may be possible with profile-driven optimization to at-least guarantee adding a thread doesn't do more harm than good.

Broken home, broken kids. I know that antagonizes a lot of people, some of whom found their role as parents incompatible with their preferred lifestyle... The truth is a bitch.

> They offer no conclusion on how sellers can materialize thousands of copies of a book out of thin air.

Acquiring used books and selling them as new. (Obviously, its not out of thin air, but that's not at all required for the problem.) That's at least one way.

> "Not a single cent goes to the publisher" can only be true if they are selling illegal copies printed somewhere else, which I imagine would be extremely easy to spot.

By whom? It might be easy to spot that it was a lower quality work if you compared it to the genuine article, but that doesn't really tell you that its a counterfeit vs. a problem somewhere in the legitimate supply chain that resulted in a low-quality run. Without a genuine article to compare against, there's no way to distinguish it at all from the publisher just doing low quality work to cut costs.

> "slightly used" books, the publisher and author have already been paid

They haven't been paid for each copy that was sold to the end purchaser as "new"; both the end purchaser (who isn't getting what they paid for) and the publisher (who isn't getting their share of the transaction the end purchaser intended to make) are victims.
There were lots of other confounding factors, the other two crew members didn't have good enough instrumentation to get the plane out of stall either.

> 3) Books were purchased through "unauthorized" channels, e.g. free review copies

I don't see anything wrong with someone reselling a free review copy of a physical book. If you don't want people reselling free review copies, then don't give them out in the first place.

Also, I've heard from multiple authors that issue #2 is definitely still a problem at Amazon.

I recently made a complete transition to Preact, and although there were a few twists needed to migrate a previous React project, overall I'm very happy with it. Haven't noticed any performance gains (other than page load time, maybe slightly). Aside from the reduction in app size, what I like is that Preact's code base is small enough to read in an evening and understand it.
>"publication independence"? Really? The man who is famous among other things for supporting the most closed ecosystem there is around: iOS, where a single company decides what apps are worth publishing and wish ones doesn't.

First of all, that's an ad hominem. If publication independence is important, then it remains important whether Gruber is hypocritical about it or not.

Second, one might want apps to be curated (for the better experience), but stand for independence from control and censorship when it comes to journalism and personal commentary.

And indeed, one can think that "newspaper publication independence" is really far more important than software publication independence. The main difference being of course that Apple controlling apps is a huge inconvenience to those being rejected, but not so much to the users (especially with 1.5 million other apps to chose from). Whereas someone controlling the news is bad for the readers.

>That genie is out of the box, when you decided that you didn't mind a company gatekeeping which software you can install on "your" devices you opened that can of worms, the one where any company can gatekeep anything they want as long as it is "convenient" for most people.

Actually there's nothing (no law of physics or history for example) to force someone being ok with the one (company control of its walled app store) to be ok with other (company controlling content publication). You can be angry and/or stop and/or speak against any combination of the two.

How is it any different from any of the other perks that Apple and other similar employers provide? I don't really think having a cafeteria/gym/shuttle is my employer's business.
If there ever were people who could afford private daycare, it's relatively well paid tech workers (or any relatively well paid worker). If you wanna complain about lack of daycare, take up the cause for the people (moms) juggling multiple barely living wage jobs at the likes of global companies like wal*mart, etc.

This is more like well paid persons' problems. There are people who need those amenities way more than appl workers.

I wouldn't say no if my employer wanted to run a daycare in the building. It would save me some hassles dropping my kid off and dealing with emergencies.

But they don't. And as far as I know, no one does. Not in Silicon Valley. Not anywhere else. Am I wrong?
What else would it output?

Obviously its not a third party native plugin, so it should output some kind of HTML5 content to play in browsers, even if it was just a canvas view.
I have a similar setup to GP: Emacs + one file + an "new-day" command.

Everything goes in one big "scratch.txt" file, with headers like:

###### Saturday, May 20 2017

...at the start of each day. These are generated by a function I run every day:

(defun new-day ()
(interactive)
(insert (format-time-string "###### %A, %B %d %Y\n")))

"scratch.txt" is always an open buffer in Emacs. You can search through the file with isearch, helm, or whatever you use. I use the "desktop" library to save and restore all open files when I close Emacs.

That's really it, just one big unstructured text file.

I don't put a lot of prose in this diary. Only todo items, code snippets, and errors / log output.

Our setups have slightly different goals: yours is to create daily nuggets of documentation, while mine is to archive whatever thoughts and code were running through my head each day.
I honestly would support Apple or Mozilla from refusing to render AMP pages. I use DuckDuckGo on Safari so don't have to deal with it thankfully.
You use DDG as your default engine. For most common searches it works fine, particularly nice is that if there is a wikipedia entry it will show it right there. When you have a tougher search and it doesn't work you just slap a '!g' or a '!b' on the end and turn it into a google/bing search.
The flame graphs look really useful. I'll certainly be using this for a project I have on the go at the moment where some of the tasks are taking days in Postgres.
Definitely. If a simple config needs to be flipped, the engineers can communicate directly across teams.

The problem is when requests for larger ideas and tasks do not go through your PM/PO (they should be protecting their team from "malicious" requests so they can meet their milestones on time).

For example, someone from product or marketing shouldn't be able to walk up to you randomly and request that you build something for them. (When they do, redirect them to your PM/PO.)

And yet, how the employee gets to and from work (shuttles), where the employee eats during the day (cafeterias), if the employee is fit and healthy (gyms, wellness centers) are all within the purview of corporate empires like Apple.

It's only a matter of time.
Couldn't you play devils advocate and say that lack of day care implies that you should go home?

If the daycare is on-site, a person might stay longer at work since their child is taken care of.

>The CMB is extremely smooth, but visible matter is highly clumped up. This can only be explained by a huge amount of matter that doesn't clump up ie non-baryonic

This is not correct. Datk matter's presence is inferred from the CMB anisotropy not because it doesn't "clump up" but because it does not interact with photons (EM field). Inflation is responsible for excess smoothness. In fact dark matter drives regular matter to "clump". See eg:

https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/61239/how-the-cm...

>every single one of those discrepancies is solved exactly

This is quite an oversell as far as I know. The margins of error on these calculations are often large.

In particular the version with a slightly modified gravity field and smaller amounts of unobserved regular matter is not too outlandish. What would be needed to exclude this is a proof that the amount of unobserved matter cannot be reduced significantly by modifying G, which has not been written yet.

The connection is that as subsidies have dropped, fees have skyrocketed.

When I was in school the tuition was $3500/yr. and I was in one of the most expensive programs in the whole university. I knew people in other programs paying as little as $2000/yr. Foreign students, who didn't receive any subsidies, paid about $19,000 for the same thing.

That was the kind of money you could easily make over the summer even at a mundane job if you were careful about saving.

Now for a basic arts degree get ready to fork out $10,000 or more. Some CS people are paying $16K a year. I'm not sure how you'd come up with that kind of scratch except with a student loan.

Education is not something that should be driven by demand pricing. Of course there's demand for education, society demands it, and as such, society should help offset the costs. Would you rather live in a place where half the people had a university education or where half the people had barely finished high school?

It's not your English, I understand what you are saying, you're game of logic is using an old copy of the rules.

Science doesn't dismiss things. Theories about ether were put aside when we started getting experimental results that it could not support and developed other models that explained it better. The theory still exists, and there is a possibility that someone will use it to better explain things in the future.

Your logic boils down to "if we understand something, it can not be dismissed. If we do not understand something, it can be dismissed..." This doesn't work in science though, the first assumption can not be true, so the second ends up saying you can dismiss everything. Leibniz and other's noticed and addressed this flaw in logic in the 1700's, and expanded logic to deal with it.

I am not great at this logic either, but a laymen's version goes "if `theory` supports experimental evidence better than anything else, you should act as if it were true until a better theory is available."
