Maps are beautiful and easy to read. But I'm deleting the app and figured I'd share why...

* The Start Trip bar takes up too much of the screen for a feature I'll never use, especially when...

* All activities are public unless we pay $30 per year on top of the $6 app? That's not a premium feature, it's an anti-feature, and having those in a paid app is a fast way to turn someone who was already halfway converted into a pissed off 1-star reviewer.

* You limit non-pro users to 3 tiles but don't say how large the tiles are unless we buy the app to find out. Turns out they're approximately 15 by 15 miles, so 3 tiles won't even cover half of a small national park.

There aren't that many of us who still happily pay for apps knowing we may delete them immediately. When you find those users, you want to delight and reward them for taking a chance on you. Not offer a crippled app that only has practical utility with an annual subscription. Make this free or offer more features without a subscription. You can't have it both ways.

Seeing as how the expert testimony is far from being in the least bit conclusive but allegations were presented as such, it's not hard to see why it is best to say nothing. Every word you utter will be used against you in the least charitable way possible, especially when the court of public opinion already thinks you're guilty.
Maybe Google is looking to run Android apps in chrome?
I doubt a regular user would notice 100% CPU usage and even less certain that they would know what to do about it or what was causing it. Most OSes operate chrome just fine when another process is asking for 100% as well.
This submission has an editorialized, misleading title.

The actual title of this paper is "Homophily in Entrepreneurial Team Formation" and it presents a number of results, one of which being that: "homophily in ethnicity increases team performance by lifting teams in bottom quantiles to median performance quantiles, but it does not increase the chance of being top performers." Very different implication from that of this editorialized submission title.

Here's the full abstract:

We study the role of homophily in group formation. Using a unique dataset of MBA students, we observe homophily in ethnicity and gender increases the probability of forming teams by 25%. Homophily in education and past working experience increases the probability of forming teams by 17% and 11 % respectively. Homophily in education and working experience is stronger among males than females. Further, we examine the causal impact of homophily on team performance. Homophily in ethnicity increases team performance by lifting teams in bottom quantiles to median performance quantiles, but it does not increase the chance of being top performers. Our findings have implications for understanding the lack of diversity in entrepreneurship and venture capital industry.
I have a Leaf and a 4 door Toyota pickup. I'm 6'5" at 240 LB. The Leaf has much more room than the truck. I have 1/2" of headroom in the truck, and no vertical field of view. I have several inches in the Leaf. I can also put the seat all the way back, and put adults in the rear seat. Can't even put a kid in the rear seat of the truck.

EV are much roomier than ICE vehicles.

As I said in another comment, the term "malicious" is obviously open to interpretation, so yes, you could make the argument that that is malware. You just have to convince others of your argument.

I'm not really interested in having that argument here, since it's really off topic for this article.

It would be weird for async functions to be synchronous wouldn't it?

Also the consumer is not required to use await with a called async function. They can use .then on it, or pass it around to other functions that consumes promises. Or, you could pass the async function to decorators that consume promise returning functions. Using experimental decorator syntax:

@debouncePromise
async function() {
...
}

Yes it is a trade off of performance for convenience and consistency.

Also... the right side of await will effectively be wrapped in a simple Promise.resolve() if it is not a promise. Proof: http://babeljs.io/repl/#?babili=false&evaluate=true&lineWrap...

The only two selling points for me with Gnumeric are a rough function equivalence with MS Excel 2003 and the output to LaTeX tables (which is _absolutely awesome_). Other than that, it's always been pretty buggy for me.

It "works" but foo won't contain the resolved value, just the promise.

The code is awaiting an array, which is already "resolved" and its returned right away. Its contents are not relevant to `await`.
Statement from Levandowski's lawyers:

https://regmedia.co.uk/2017/05/19/levandowski-waymo-fifth.pd...

"The bite of the Court’s May 11, 2017 Preliminary Injunction Order, as it relates to nonparty Anthony Levandowski, can be summarized quite simply: 'Waive your Fifth Amendment rights... or I will have you fired. The choice is yours, Mr. Levandowski.' But, even when framed as a “choice,” this command runs counter to nearly a half century of United States Supreme Court precedent, beginning with Garrity v. State of New Jersey, 385 U.S. 493 (1967), in which the Court held that the Fifth Amendment forbids a government entity from threatening an individual with the choice “between self-incrimination and job forfeiture.” Id. at 497, 500. As the Supreme Court observed in Garrity, the “option to lose [one’s] means of livelihood or pay the penalty of self-incrimination is the antithesis of free choice to speak out or to remain silent.” Id. at 497. As the Supreme Court made clear, whenever
a state actor imposes this choice between “the rock and the whirlpool,” it engages in unlawful constitutional compulsion, which, among other things, operates to immunize any resulting testimonial statements."

Isn't anyone else here bothered by the due process implications of Judge Alsup's demand to force Levandowski to give up a Constitutional right or be fired? I'm generally a fan of Alsup, but this sets terrible precedence.
This says, near the end, "Do not ever even attempt a big-bang rewrite", but aren't a LOT of legacy in-house projects completely blown out of the water by well-maintained libraries of popular, modern languages, that already exist? (In some cases these might be commercial solutions, but for which a business case could be made.)

I'm loath to give examples so as not to constrain your thinking, but, for example, imagine a bunch of hairy Perl had been built to crawl web sites as part of whatever they're doing, and it just so happens that these days curl or wget do more, and better, and less buggy, than everything they had built. (think of your own examples here, anything from machine vision to algabreic computation, whatever you want.)

In fact isn't this the case for lots and lots of domains?

For this reason I'm kind of surprised why the "big bang rewrite" is, written off so easily.

An N.B.A. Throwback Returns: Ads on Jerseys
USPS has several laws affecting it's profitability due to battles in Congress that simply a small government would not have (or be able to sustain).

One is being required to over pay it's pensions to shore up the deficit other federal agencies have not made to the federal pension. Another is a requirement to serve mail all 5 working business days regardless of how rural a location it is. USPS actually delivers foreign letters, that can contain small items below cost, as do all nations mail systems due to international treaty. Congress has also has placed limits on how much USPS can raise the cost of a stamp.

And then there is the USPS union battles.

There are plenty of small government agencies that run very well simply because private enterprise has been uninterested or incompetent. Chattanooga TN's utility provider can match Google Fiber on $70 gigabit internet.

This would only hold if the demographics stay the same. In 10 years time, half a generation of children will grow into their teens . If for some reason there are more/fewer biologically female teenagers, you might expect more/fewer teen pregnancies.

Moreover, the teen pregnancy rate is impacted by many unrelated factors (sex education, social mores, etc). You could try to model the change these factors might have, but starting from actual demographics gives you an additional piece of information.

All of this is true, but in my experience, it's the rare engine that meets its end due to piston/cam friction. Usually, the engine is abandoned due to the cost of maintaining all the things attached to it (e.g., water pump, alternator, master cylinder, etc.). If you're willing to suffer the nickel and dime expenses, the actual pistons/valves/camshafts usually last many hundreds of thousands of miles.

Tangential Q: someone mentioned that GCC is right up there in terms of most complex piece of software ever written. People with enough know-how would vouch for this? Are compilers the most complex piece of the puzzle? Or, are there other type of wares that dwarf GCC or compilers, in general, in terms of complexity (like, say, JIT interpreters, or DB Query Execution Engines, or HDLs).

The problem with top-ranked journal more likely arises from page limitation. The amount of data needed for a paper published in such journals with so little pages and figures allowed basically means no one could have enough space to put enough material in the main content. And then who really takes a serious effort in supplementary materials?

With regards to method section of paper, while it is an important part for reproducibility, it is not writing in great details in top journals. The reasons I think lie in it is mostly in the supplementary material, the multiple methods used make it crazily long, furthermore applications of the commercial kits and highly-automated machines make it not necessary for researcher to write in great details.

Anyway, I agree that papers from Nature/Science are hard to read sometime, especially without reading the supplementary.

The Single Most Important Thing That Data Can Do for Your Startup
Clozemaster already offers this for over 100 language pairings via the Fluency Fast Track feature, https://www.clozemaster.com.

Clozemaster's a game to learn and practice a language in context. The objective is to fill in the missing word in a given sentence for thousands of sentences. The missing word is the most difficult word in the sentence according to a frequency list for the language, and the Fluency Fast Track feature allows you to play a sentence for each unique missing word in order of difficulty like you described.
Or a threshold in information processing capabilities, yes. But could you describe these information processing capabilities?

Since evolution does process information about iterative states, it's not the mere existence of feedback, so there must be some threshold in capabilities that requires crossing.

Please describe them in a manner that includes or excludes as you see fit babies, cats, and bacteria but doesn't leave it a continuum (ie, there must be a cutoff where on one side you have some and the other none).
>The tectonic command-line program is quiet and never stops to ask for input.

The example below suggests otherwise. What is so difficult to understand about 'stay silent except in case of error'? There should be one line of output:

warnings were issued by the TeX engine; use --print and/or --keep-logs for details.

Then you wouldn't need to fill the terminal with ugly colour codes to make that line stand out, as it would already stand out.

>We recognize that Rust is a new language that not many people are familiar with, but it is technically excellent. It would have been massively more challenging implement Tectonic’s web-based bundle functionality in a language like C.

I really do wonder how much effort people that say things like this have put into doing this sort of thing in C. Because really, it's not that difficult.

And on top of that, it's basically a simple little tool for running a couple of processes, looping a couple of processes, and cURLing a couple of packages. It could be written in bash. Comparing to C is just silly.

Well no, since you can use object destructuring.

Yes, obviously! But they do not take the same number of lines - one is three lines and the other is one line.

It's sort of funny to me- number of lines doesn't paint the picture we want it to... so let's change the metric! Our code is special, anyway.

It's not so bad- the connector would be tricky, but you can fit that much power in a normal sized connector[1]. For a real charging network you would need supercapacitors at the stations, not a 1 MW feeder per car, since people won't be constantly charging. You would need a very large capacitor for this purpose, but that wouldn't really be a problem. It wouldn't even be that expensive relative to the cost of a car.

You'd have to scale up the size of the internal wiring, but not that much. The wires are sized for efficiency, not heating. For extreme speed charging it's acceptable for them to heat up briefly.

Finally, a 5 minute charge would be an average of 12 C (1 C means charging in an hour, .5 C means 2 hours, etc). This is high, but there are plenty of batteries that can do it- there are batteries that can charge/discharge up to 40 C. Even if it isn't good for the batteries, that's not really a problem since it would be needed pretty rarely.

[1] These can handle 260 amps per .4 square inches of connector- 3.5 square inches in total: http://www.molex.com/molex/products/family?key=extreme_ten60...

Suppose your JS Chrome App is getting the plug yanked on it, what are your alternatives?

2.) Rewrite the whole thing as a native app in such a language as C++ without the use of Electron

You can't possibly tell me that most developers won't choose #1 instead of #2 in a heartbeat (the switching costs are orders of magnitude more for #2, for one thing). Which is not a Good Thing.

And it's also very obvious that #2 isn't nearly as secure as #1, which runs in a sandbox and so does not have direct unchecked access to users' files like #2 does.
